I'm feeling extremely groggy today. Must be the aftereffects of the flu pill I took yesterday night. Was temporarily down with a sudden flu yesterday and I kept thinking from whom I have possibly gotten it from. Apparently, sis got it too.

Slept like a log yesterday. Dreamt that I woke up late (due to the medication) and didn't make it to work today but... here I am at work, 2 hours later. Boring.

Yesterday, a friend came to me for advice. Advice on *gulp* ... love. Oh the horrors of it all! I really cannot take it. I was lost for words and I really wish somebody could help me out then. I'm really the wrong person to ask about this you know. Really. I'm terrible at it myself.

What may work for me, may not work for her. I can easily move on but she can't and that's difficult to assess. For me, I've gone through many many failures that moving on seems so easy now. I can even do a sprint. But for her... a pinch is like a punch.

She's pretty and capable (tho' her reasons can sometimes be quite bimbotic), and yet she's finding it difficult to cope with this. She has suitors all over the place, unlike me. I have suitors all over the world. *laughs real hard* It's different, ya know.

*clears throat*

For her, if she snaps her finger, 10 guys will come. And she can get depressed over one stupid chauvinistic pig. She wrote him a hate mail and he told her to put it in his Friendster's testimonial. Is he stupid or what? Cut and paste yourself lah! *beep beep*

And she fears she'll be the only one amongst us to remain single for life. Erm, I think the ratio of she and me remaining single is equivalent to 1:10000000?

Actually, single is good what. No commitments. No strings attached. But I guess she needs to know more about cars. Oh well...

Sigh, she doesn't realise she's a lucky girl. If I'm that negative, I would've been a goner by now. It all boils down to self-esteem and confidence. You should embrace yourself, and appreciate the good things in life. Just laugh it off! I know it's not easy but take your time, my friend.

1 assignment down, and 5 more to go. Sigh. Think I'm too distracted lah. Influenced by the two sisters I have at home. Seriously, they're a comic relief and I need them. "They" referring to Korean entertainers, me and my sisters of course.

Before all this Korean craze even existed, one of my dream vacations was to go to Korea and Turkey for the wondrous beauty of nature, culture and history. I told my mom, I'll bring her to Korea to experience snow. I was captivated by God's creation.

Then suddenly, Korea was bursting into the limelight and took the world by storm. Apparently, Spore is a bit slow. Or was it only me? They were HUGE in European countries. Made me wonder where the Japanese are now? I think they're busy making gadgets, either that or they're drifting over Tokyo.

Everybody was going agog over them, I decided that I didn't wanna go there anymore. It was too commercialised. And I hated that.

Many, many moons later... they're still hot lah! But you know what? I've come to love them too. You know why? Because of their black humour and straight-forwardness. Something I could relate to very well. Haha.

So what did I do? I researched on Muslims and where to find Halal restaurants and mosques. Quite aplenty so I've got nothing to worry about, really.

My mother has got nothing to say. Probably cos she knows I wouldn't even move an inch out of Spore cos I'm too terrified to take a plane.

Oh and I have already checked out the price for a trip there. And I can safely say that I'll be able to go there in about a century's time.

Korea, here I come!

P/s: And no, I'm not obsessed.
