I'm really really really really sad he had to leave. I know he kind of bombed last season and the season before last, but he was truly one of my favourite Arsenal players. Worse is, he just made my Arsenal shirt obsolete!!! (double frowns)

In other news, I went to NTU for Medical Checkup today. Had to go in with all the other foreign students since I hold an Indonesian passport, and so had to report to the ISC like every other FMS (fucking Malaysian scholar) who were in NTU for the first time ever. (I'm Indonesian, by the way) And the worst part is I almost got forced into joining the orientation programme for new Indonesians! I went in and said, Hi I am a foreign student from Indonesia, I'm here to do my medical checkup so I would need the requisite forms? Okay sir, Welcome to Singapore. You are from Indonesia? Okay, please take these (gives me a shitload of forms of which only one is relevant) fill them up and put them over there with the people over on that table. Then go home and come back tommorow, that's when the Indonesian programme starts. Oh, no. I'm actually a local student but I just hold a passport, so I am not going for the orientation thingy. Can I just get the form? No sir, all new foreign students are encouraged to sign up for the orientation programme so as to get you sufficiently naturalised that you can live in Singapore. No like I said, I'm actually a local student, that I've been in the Singapore system since many years ago, so NO NEED FOR ORIENTATION. (Which part of that did the person fail to get?)

Ok, so I filled up the forms... Better be compliant than risk all the wraths of Indians, Malaysians and other kuchikurang foreigners combined. Never mind, so the medical checkup was also pretty routine, except for the urine test. Okay, all the urine tests I've been through in my life goes like this. Doctor gives a cylinder with a cover that can be secured shut, and you go to the toilet to do it. The lady gave me a cup and a strip of paper, and I somehow missed the bright yellow instructions on the table. So I went, got a sample, and went back with the cup full of it. THANKFULLY some seniors saw and looked puzzled, so one of them explained to me, you only need the strip of paper. I was so embarrassed at that very moment! So I did the best thing possible, laugh, say "cheh, no wonder lah" and went back to the toilet to get rid of the incriminating stuff.

Other than that it was so boring and tedious that I wonder why I went NTU (cause it's so friggin far)

Met See Wai and Tony for lunch at Fisherman's Wharf. Like ordered a bit too many side dishes, cause I forgot that their "side dish" is served in baskets. Ate until I was so stuffed before CY left for her $2 movie and me and Tony both went home. Of course, today I managed to obtain a very 白目 picture of CY to use as the contact picture in my phone. So it's not exactly a wasted day.

Oh, I am going to Johor tommorow for a short one-day visit. Not that I like going Johor to buy stuff, but this is cause my Social Visit Pass expires on the 26th (this thurs) but the ICA building just has to be closed down from today till the 26th. So I have to leave the country and come back so they can issue me an extension for the visit pass... If not I'd be blacklisted (if I actually overstay) and the myopic ICA people will be condemning a person like me from ever coming back into the country. How mean.
