toys & shutter shades

last nite maggie & i went to see KANYE WEST!! he was here in singapore. i have a maaaad crush on kanye. i never realized it till now, even though i've heard he's kinda douchey. we had A LOT of fun and he is a great performer. the place where the concert was wasn't that big & it wasn't crazy packed or anything. we had quite the adventure after the show when it was nearly impossible to get a taxi and we really wanted to get to the club. we ended up getting a ride from a flower truck delivery person. using "it's singapore, what could happen?!" as justification, we jumped in & didn't have to pay for a taxi! sweet. we were hoping to run into Kanye at the clubs but dat foo' didn't come out i guess. lame. 

last friday i decided to have some "me" time & i went to MINT- Moment of Imagination and Nostalgia with Toys... aka a museum of toys! they had collections of vintage toys from all over the world. there were some really old (like mid-19th century) toys and some of them were worth a lot of freakin money. some little tin robot guy was worth $15,000 U.S. dollars!! geeeez. & they had one of the big wind-up peacocks that was in that movie 'TOYS'. & the very first issue of 'The Avengers.' and just a bunch of really neat stuff. old school disney tunes were playing in the background. i think i was one of 4 people in the entire place. it was a nice little outing.

i've been thinking of all the awesome things i am going to do when i get back to the states. here's what i have so far-

eat:

a block of cheese

in-n-out

burrito bol from chipotle

all forms of mexican food

grilled cheese

pinkberry

real breakfast

(i understand that this is a lot of food, but i'm not going to eat it all at once)

do:

catch up on television & movies for about 5 days straight

use as many paper towels & toilet seat covers as possible

maybe re-learn how to drive

wash all my clothes & put them in the DRYER

if anyone wants to join me, that would be just grrreeat. i won't have school, or a job, for a while so i'm probably going to be pretty useless for about a month. & i will gladly take any offers to help me accomplish any of these things haha

i'm going to miss my daily lunch of naan, tofu, & potatoes from the indian place tho. and endless amounts of cheap fresh fruit. and my Nokia cell phone with snake. actually, i'm probably not going to miss using this phone, it sucks. 

classes for me are done. one presentation to do on tuesday but thats it. after that i have A WHOLE LOT of studying for 3 tests. wowowow. finals here are really intense. & i still have a lot of stuff i want to do here in Singapore! it seems like i have so much time and no time all at once. strange. i have some serious ADD again lately. & a little bit of insomnia for the past 3 weeks. always thinking thinking thinking... what i still wanna do, what i need to do, what i didn't do, what do i wanna buy, what am i going to do when i get home, when do classes at sdsu even start, what was that crazy dream all about, where am i gonna get a job, what am i going to do for new years, am i really graduating from college in may, what's going to happen with Jim & Pam, what is the meaning of life, why is the internet so freakin awesome... you know, nothing important :)
