my hair is very curly nowadays, because i'm washing it twice a day to get rid of the hair dye.
within the past 48 hours, i finished reading an excellent novel, went to an awesome comedy show and watched a well-made movie. and i've also written my critique, done my readings, and finished my icc assignments. although i didn't realize it, it's been a pretty productive weekend.
the trip to new york was, for lack of word to explain it, fun. it was rather hectice, we arrived penn station at 6:30pm and found the place in chinatown at almost 8 pm. we were rather skeptical when we saw the place. my first thought was, who in their right minds would bring a prime minister to a sketchy restaurant like this? nevertheless, it created a rather informal atmosphere and everyone seemed very comfortable. apparently it was some kind of a surprise party for dr. m and his wife (with balloons too, of course), a celebration by the malaysians in appreciation of the services he has rendered our country. i've never been a big fan of our domestic politics, and coming from where i am, our prime minister has never been held very highly. but i have to admit that at the dinner i have come to appreciate him. no matter what his faults are, his contributions definitely surpass them all. he is an amazing stateman, and will always remain one in our memories.
and so we met the prime minister and his wife and his delegation and quite a few friends and acquaintances. the dinner ended at midnight and we went to mus's room at sheraton to rest a bit before we left. but everyone was too restless to sleep so we went for a walk to the times square. and walked back to the hotel room for a short nap before we catched the 3:15 am train back to boston. and so ended my first trip to nyc. we arrived boston at 8:15 thursday morning and i spent the rest of the day in bed, missing all my classes.
alright. i've to go. hanna been in here twice already in the past ten minutes. i swear, that girl will go crazy if you leave her without company for even one minute.
