Twentysomething

After years of expensive education, a car full of books and anticipation, I知 an expert on Shakespeare and that痴 a hell of a lot, but the world don't need scholars as much as I thought. Maybe ill go travelling for a year finding myself or start a career. I could work for the poor though I知 hungry for fame we all seem so different but we're just the same. Maybe ill go to the gym, so i don't get fat, are things more easy with a tight six pack? Who knows the answers? Who do you trust? I can't event separate love from lust. Maybe I値l move back home and pay off my loans, working nine to five answering phones. Don't make me live for my friday nights, drinking eight pints and getting in fights.

I don't want to get up, just let me lie in, leave me alone, I'm a twenty something. Maybe i'll just fall in love that could solve it all, philosophers・say that that痴 enough, there surely must be more.

Love ain稚 the answer nor is work, the truth alludes me so much it hurts. But I知 still having fun and i guess that's the key, I知 a twenty something and ill keep being me.

I知 a twenty something. Let me lie in, Leave me alone. I知 a twenty something.

Big Apple

So we've been here for almost 23 days, crashed a car, survived the Death Valley desert and emerged.........broke. The other folks have gone on their rampage for branded shopping, i have given up the mindless trudge and retreated to the new york library for some brain feeding instead. it's weird not keeping in touch with the news or what's going on around us now, i bet alot of people are getting knived and shot every day in this city. anyways. this girl is very very broke now (which would explain why i'm sitting here instead of looking for things to buy).

so much has happened since i last blogged - it was hard leaving shanghai, but not as hard as i thought. maintaining the long distance relationship is tough, and we'll see if it holds til he comes. d's booked tickets for 1st Oct, let's just hope we're still together by then. he had wanted to fly me back to shanghai after i get back from this trip, but i don't think that's happening. i'm so excited to pay my handphone bills.

need a really good milkshake now. see you folks back in sg.
