You tink it's perfect, everything's so fine, wait till you look it thru your spiritual eyes. You tink it's nice but pls open your eyes, this place is but a beautiful sty. You want it, I want it, everything's a want. We lose it den we say it's for fun. You think it's funny, wat I'm saying is corny. It'z a warning. Heed it or ignore it.

My Hostel. . .

OhiMe Went to NTU tis aftnoon wif yiling and tOkiyA =) Checked-in to my hostel. Only one word. SIANZ..The fact tat I hate sch is bad enuff.. Now, I even HATE my hostel.. How to survive??? *shake head* Sigh.. The journey fr home to sch is kinda far so decided to stay in hostel tinking it wud be nearer.. Yes, indeed it is nearer. BUT!! The my hostel is stil SO FAR from my sch!!

I went to sch w/o much expectation. Tis is wat I had in mind : -

1. No pte toilet. Only those common ones like those of swimming pools which at least is decent.(had in mind Bishan's which is assumed to be older than Yio Chu kang's)

2. Small and cramp room. Beds, desk, wardrobe for 2.

3. Common kitchen. wif basics like stove, and proper cooking area like cedar's (which is not tat clean afterall. Stinks at times.)

4. No air-con. But at least got fan la..

5. Proper flooring. Parquet??? (duno how to spell! but is those wooden ones la. w/o termites!)

6. A recreation room. Air-coned. Decent tv and sofa. Cosy. Wif some fashion mag or at least i-weekly! (I noe latest issues is a luxury. At least have some outdated ones la) A pool/billard table(not tat I reali care) Some tables and chairs like those of NLB.

7. Laundry room. proper washing machine tat is ez to operate. Clean enuf to wash my clothes!

8. Bamboo ?? to hang and dry clothes!

9. A decent window... at least..

And thanks so much! Of all the halls, I have to get Hall 10. Can't help tinking it is one of the worst hall in NTU. (brought it upon myself. To tink I even tink tat I may get those hall which is new/ wif toilet and rejected Leo's offer) If you cant picture how bad my future zzz envt is like, here's how :

1. Yes, no pte toilets. Common one have! But please, dun tink of swimming pool's style. Tink Kopitiam's style. *faint* Wat can be worse than NYJC old PE dept toilets?? (I finally found my ans..) *rolled eyes* At least we had pink. NTU's color.. cant even recall. prob some blackish-brown. Not it's original color! (probably the stains! and dirts!) Sianz

2.Bingo for my 2nd pt ! Small and cramp room. Beds, desk, wardrobe for 2. But wif lotsa dirt and dust! (imagine we spend like 5 hrs cleaning it?!) And aft cleaning, I bet they are stil there somehow. Sianz

3. Yes, common kitchen. (can I even call it kitchen?) No proper cooking stuff and area. Are they tinking by building it small, even if the place got burnt, there wun be much of a lost to them?! Sianz

4. Fan. Isit working ?! *Feeling hopeless* Little OhiMe wil prob suffocate even she doesn't open the window! Sianz

5. Proper flooring, if there definition of proper is - hard and sturdy. wun sink down watsoever.
You can see how dirty it is. Stained etc. Sianz. Little OhiMe's room can be 100Xs beter even if she dun clean it often! Hmm.. den again, =) prob it was Queen who did the cleaning for her *touched* (Who says Queens are alwaez wicked?!)

6. A small room wif a pathetic tv. (bet they dun have vcd/video player) Sorry hor, no air-con! furniture ? tink : discarded cane-style furnitures at void-decks for ah gongs and ah mahs. No mags, nothing... Dun even tink got a decent table let alone pool/billard kind. Sianz

7. Laundry room looking even more dirty than my clothes I intended to wash. Dun bother looking for washing liquid or watever...Those big machines made me feel if I leave in tis era. Or am i juz a Mountain Tortise, nv seen a washing machine bfore. Sianz

8. 3 pc of cheapo wires to hang clothes! *rolled eyes*(tink King has got even higher quality ones) Sianz

9. Windows tat look like those in prisons (juz imagine la. if I can, I'm sure u can too) Wif some nettings which is suppose to prevent mosquito but ended up trapping more dirts and dust which makes the room even more filthy. yucks! Dun u tink it wil attract even more insects? Sianz

10. oh yar. distance.. To Canteen? sorry .. my hall got none to tok abt. (I have to walk to other halls when I am hungry?! At nite how?) To sch? tink I hav to take bus. And no direct bus I Tink! Either walk again / change bus hor.. look at the NTU map and u'll noe wat I am toking abt. To add on to it, it was like one of the last stops in NTU bfor my bus exit out to duno wher...Sianzzzzzz


Despite the sianz-ness, we manage to clean up quite ok (and leave tat place at 7 + pm) Jus tat duno y keep having tis feeling tat it's dirty. Special thanx to tOkiyA... Who is so helpful and kind to help us out.. And yiling who stil continues to clean stuff w/o getting much affected by my sianz-ness and whining.. And yes, thanx. My fav yummy korean food. =)

Conclusion :
Totally sianz-ed OhiMe living in a totally poor envt. (ah~ here comes my geog.. haha.. LEDC less economically dev countries aka 3rd world countries!) OhiMe's hostel is even worse than Woodbridge!
Okishi said " being okishi nowadays isnt ez than ancient times.". i tink being OhiMe is even worse!
Oh, sth worth mentioning.. Prince at least got some reaction when he realise I'll be in hostel. =) Queen is the nicest! Alwaez giving me support and asking me to go hOmE~ *smilez* haiz.. tink I will miss Queen the most ba..Oh~ I brought Queen's fav.. Pastries =) Looks yummy ..Hope she likes it.
Haiz..Wat can i say abt sch ? (or rather my hostel) Hopeless ~ No more words...
