Well, the final of Euro 2008 will be starting soon, so I will make this brief.

Yes, that was just an excuse. :P I'm lazy to type anything longer, and recapping the past - how many weeks?? - will be too long.

ANYWAY, the point of this post is to tell you, dear reader, to take a good look around. Because this is the last time you will see this blog as it is right now.

I'm finally changing the design!

I always planned on doing it after poly, just because the current design reminds me too much of those sad days when the end was still far away and the only thing I could do was whine and complain in every single post.

So it's a little late, but nevertheless, it is time for a makeover.

I just spent three nights working on the new blog design - basically one night to search for a suitable base template (which was the hardest part and I almost gave up) and tweak it a bit, another night to do the blog banner and tweak more html (mostly fonts and colours), and the third night (tonight) to do the footer graphic and finish the tweaking.

So basically, the whole thing is done already. I just don't know when to upload the new template. :P

Well, here's to my next post, whenever I decide to post.

*runs off to get chips and salsa*

I finally decided to blog. Well actually I wanted to blog a long time ago, but I've been so busy with that stupid travel bloggy of mine. Speaking of my travel bloggy, it is of course FAR longer than my previous blogs and therefore taking such a damn long time to complete. Well, that and I procrastinate quite a lot.

The good news is I'm halfway through Paris, so I only have a few more posts to go. The bad news is that I'm still waiting to get some pictures, and then I have the usual html stuff to sort out. :P You can expect the blog to be up around Wednesday night though. And I must apologise first for the reflections in many of the photos; I took many pictures whilst the bus was moving.

And speaking again of my holiday, yes I returned slightly over a week ago. The weather was REALLY weird, with the first half being insanely hot and the second half being both rainy and slightly too cold for comfort.

The next piece of big news since I've returned: MY EZ-LINK CARD EXPIRED!!! Which supposedly means I can't have student meals anymore, but then again the expiry date isn't printed on the card so who's to say I didn't get retained?? ;)

But no I didn't get retained, as you all must know by now. In fact my graduation ceremony was on the same day that my card expired. And as you all must also know by now, I didn't attend the ceremony! Mwahahahaha. I had quite a few reasons for doing that, but I'm not going to tell you what they were and anyway I don't expect anyone to understand. As a matter of fact, no one in my family even remembered it was my graduation day because they were too busy dealing with my sister's departure for the US. :P

So it means I've graduated in absentia and my dippys (I like calling them dippys!) are awaiting collection.

In the meantime though, other than working on my travel bloggy I've been doing mostly...nothing - as you might expect. But just a few hours ago I did something WORTHWHILE, which was to repack the bookshelf in the living room. My sister kindly left her big box full of books for me to put away! Plus not only were there sooooo many big fat books, but I also found some of my books that she borrowed without asking (e.g. Antiquity - I haven't seen that book since my first term in SP!) - and I finally found And Then There Were None!

Now I still have my desk and another cupboard to clear. Sigh. Thank goodness life will be getting more exciting from the end of this week, what with meeting YQ and Sam for dinner, Euro 2008 starting (we have the sports channels for one month), the 4A class gathering, and staying over at Sam's house! *YAY KILL ZOMBIES AND CIVILIANS!!!!!!!!!!!!* (Oh yeah, and fyi I was very disappointed when I didn't see any zombies in Venice.)

Then after that my life will go back to its original boring state. :P

Well I better quit rambling on now and go work on my travel bloggy. My next post will most probably contain pics of the clothes I bought on holiday! :)

Oh and one last thing. I know my Chatterbox has been down for some time; this is completely deliberate. I will be replacing it again but not yet.
