true enough, the only attraction in milan is the duomo lol.

i decided during my easter trip that i wanted to do the smu jump at every city i vist in europe. i think i only managed to accomplish that at less than half of the places i visit.

this is probably the first complete family photo we've taken. it was taken at my cousin's wedding, two days after i came back from europe, with my new and shortlived haircut.

it's almost a week since i came back and i've been pretty overwhelmed by almost everything.
1. first, singapore's weather is intolerable! the heat and humidity is making me feel gross and sticky the whole day, even after i come out of a shower! it's probably the biggest adjustment i have had to make since coming back.
2. went for a much-needed haircut at jean yip on friday (only cos chapter two was fully booked and i really needed a haircut after five months!) which dint turn out all that satisfactory :S
3. attended my cousin's wedding on saturday. i didn't even realize he's 31! weddings these days are so different from the traditional ones back then (think brides wearing gaudy, lacy gowns in shades of white or pink) i especially liked the photo presentation showing the journey of the love birds; it makes one feel as though fairytales do exist :)
4. went for the just lai reunion gathering at ken's place and learnt a piece of shocking news which i'm still recovering from. other than that, seems like everyone's still the same except we're all moving closer to the real world in different directions now that everyone's soon to graduate in the next or following semester.
5. saw graduation photos of the 2005 batch and cyberstalked a bit about who's going where and doing what. together with the earlier events, it feels scary that we're quickly entering this new stage of life where important, life-changing decisions need to be made. it seems as though most people have got it worked out, or at least figured out, except for me.
6. went for the internship interview today. it's been a while since i donned those formal clothes and heels and it's also been a while since i had to relate to my academic experiences. what do i want to do?
7. away from these mind-boggling stuff which yields no answer no matter how much you think about them, i turned to watching korean dramas because they are heart-wrenching yet awfully sweet at the same time. but after a show, you hate it cos it paints such a rosy picture of reality which we all know is otherwise.
8. looking at the last photos of the exchange, the memories seem to be gradually fading away i have difficulty remembering some names. those five months feel a little unreal. i miss the freedom and, not having to think about the things i have to think about now.
