Comedy show at Improv Asylum.
Somewhere near Haymarket.
Nice scenery while walking to the theater.
It seems more like a club when i first entered.
There's a wine bar, high chairs & a few tables.
Though food is provided, the interns still had to buy pizza.
Anyway, the show is awesome!
The theater is rather small, there isn't exactly a stage.
The performancers are smart!
They can simply act out a scene of a part of an audience's life story,
and used whatever we've written on paper as their dialogue in the acting.
They also will use the f* word..haha!
The show ended at 10.30pm.
Worth the $ ;)
Fri Jun 27
Supposed to catch the free movie screening at Hatch Memorial Shell,
but it was raining.
Can't go since it's an open-spaced thgy.
Went to Coolidge Corner instead.
Saw a party shop!
U can find almost anything needed for party there!
From cakes to baking stuff & to decorations.
Actually saw a princess (crown) party hat, but doubt i can fold it & bring
back to S'pore.
Didn't buy then.
How i wish there is such shop in S'pore too!
Tried a Middle East food.
Bought a packet of BIG strawberries from Traders' Jones.
It's so sweet & cheap!
Melissa is surprisely so nice to get me a princess balloon.
Will use it for my 21st bday =)
Lunch
^ Microwave: Beef pasta & mini pizza (can't rmbr exact term)
Sat Jun 28
Went to Salem Witch Museum.
Out of boston =p
The place is a witch village.
So there are lotza witch related stuff.
We've gone to wax museum and even to see see the graveyard.
The weather is so COLD!!
16^C PLUS breeze!!
We actually hugged each other..haha..
Gd thing there's sihui ard.
Vietnamese beef noodle soup.
Whoa..the soup is good!
The beef taste so yummy too!
Shared with sihui, so we ordered a XL bowl..lol..
We ate side dish too.
I think it's called the chicken rolls.
It's like popiah.
Each of us just paid $6.54.
Not very ex ar.
Came back & did a little part of assignment.
Going out with different clique can also be fun! ^^
Thank God for today!!

The cut seems to penetrate deep right into my heart.
So deep that i can hardly feel anything else ard me.
It's just that instant of loss.
I recalled ppl saying this before,
"The most terrible wound would be emotionally".
This statement is beginning to make some sense to me now.
As a result, my mood, appetite, attitude, in fact, almost anything abt me
seems to be affected in a way or the other.
I just don't wanna hide from reality.
I don't wish to be conquered by the hurt.
Neither do i wanna see upsetting matter occurring & occurring.
Yet, despite how much i tried means & ways to get in contact,
some attempts failed.
I will try not to give up!

Role-play is rather fun today.
Some grps came up with funny & interesting ideas.
Brought laughter to the class, at least not so boring.
The biggest head of my Wheelock program had a informal meeting with us during lunch.
We're allowed to eat pizza & discuss at the same time.
Each grp leader represent each grp abt evaluation of this course.
There are positive & negative stuff that we've brought up.
Profession Crawford ordered fried rice for us as dinner.
Wasn't very well, so didn't join my friends.
Anyway, they ta bao for me.
Didn't finished it up though.
Chiong-ed the assignment due tml & the weekly reflection!
Praise God, all is done!! ;)

Assignment discussion.
Role-play for tml class.
Had the garlic smthg pasta which i've taken previously.
However, it was so salty this time!!
Didn't finis my meal.
Thank God we ta bao donuts during breakfast, so i took it when i was hungry.
Panelist during lesson.
Boring!
Went out of class to websms & msn though it's like S'pore time 1 plus or 2plus am.
Had to ta bao dinner.
Went Johnnie's Fresh Market.
Ordered teriyaki turkey tips & chowder, shared among 3 of us.
Who knows, it suddenly downpour!
We're stucked in the fresh market >.<
I prayed & prayed (in my heart).
And God is indeed so wonderful!
He sent my friend to bring umbrellas for us =)
That's the way that friends should help each other :)
The author who wrote the mentoring textbk came to have a talk.
So we were eating while listening to her.
Honestly, i think only 10% of what has been said got into me =p
Concentrating & enjoying my dinner ma..haha..
She wrote a simple note & took pic with her :)
Nice meeting the author whose book you read.
Interesting!
Continued discussion.
As usual, we were talked abt funny stuff & sometimes out of topic =p
At least discussion isn't boring in this way.
In addition, to be fair to assign the role to act,
drawing lot is the best way to do so.
Well, i suggested it but one of my grp mates doesn't seem happy.
I live for Christ & for myself; not for others anyway.
Shall not bother by that.
Hasn't finis the chowder, so going to heat it up.
See, have been eating late, thus i guess i've gained weight!!
AHHHH!!!...
On our way to sch today,
One of my friends said, "It's weird that he didn't sms me gd nite or gd morning as he does that every day."
Sounds familiar, huh..? Hmmm..
Mm..my day seems rather ok until i read smthg.
Dunno why i was kinda hurt inside.
So my day ended in a not-so-happy one.
Believing that tml will be a better day!

First lesson of parent-teacher communication module.

Gd to hear more info & other's experiences.
I had actually doze off while watching the video.
Was quite boring.
In fact, the lesson today was kinda dry.

However the lecturer dismissed us earlier.
Lunch
^ Cheese Burger
Since there was no assignment due tml, we went to Longwood Galleria for dinner.
Beef with broccoli rice bowl.
Got fortune cookie too..hehe..
Says "Be mature by accepting imperfections."
Before dinner, went to a shop at the Children's Hospital.
Initially, wanna buy a princess necklace that comes together with a crown box.
So nice!
However, i bought a princess sorta keychain instead.

Four of us eating & each paid US$11.70.
Somemore it's a restaurant.
Walked ard that area.
Nth much except lotza food.
Actually wanna go Children's Museum as they're having an event.
However, it's closed.
Thank God we still can spend time at the event anyway.
We're so goon goon today.
Didn't know that if we were to walk str from the Chinatown street,
we can actually reach South Station.
In the end, we took T and traveled one big round..HAHA..
My neighbour, staying in the same level, is so nice to give us an apple pie..hehe..
So besides oatmeal, i had apple pie for dinner too :)
Shucks!
Got gastric pain after shower.
Because these few days have been taking dinner rather lately.
Expected this one day will happen.

Had a filling lunch.
Chicken finger plate & chowder.
There fries are so much!
Went to Museum of Science.
Wow! It was so much amazing than S'pore Discovery Center.
Lots more interesting & hands-on stuff for us to explore.

Sleepy & blur blur, still sms =p

Harbor Islands.
Explore 2 islands.
Gotta take a ferry from Boston in order to reach Georges Island (main pt).
So close to historic culture & nature walk.
Don't really like such boliao stuff in S'pore,
but dunno why i seem more keen in this exploration.
Like i didn't mind the grassy path or got insects ard etc.
Juz feel like exploring :)
Perhaps it's the weather here.
Though it's sunny, the breeze is strong.
Got sun-tan >.<
Part of my hand looks like lobster..HAHA..
Can u believe that i've actually spent US$40 on t-shirt alone in this one day?
All are gifts, except one >.<
Finally found one that i like,
'I (a heart-shaped) Boston' hehe..
Have been thinking of others, like getting them gifts.
It's time to think for myself!
Hope the stuff i bought are able to fit into my luggage.
Most importantly, will not exceed too >.<

Today's weather is just nice =)
Sunny but there's good breeze too.
Site visit to MIT.
The center has 3 storey high.
Isn't it big?
The playground is nice & fun too..hehe..
Actually wanna go to the MIT Coop to get the top,
such as sesame street with MIT.
Unfortunately, there wasn't spare time left so we had to head back to sch.
Catering again :)
There was a talk on 'How Violence, Sex & Marketing in the Media Harm Children's Development, Learning & Play - and What We Can Do About It'
Though it was 2 hrs, i was paying attention & even jot down notes.
Hardworking k =p
Went to The Institute of Contemporary Art.
Northern Ave.
Art is indeed abstract.
Gonna see from another perspective.
Fav artwork is shown thru projector that portrays the struggles that the world is facing.
Such as terrorism and ongoing war.
Along with ppl wanting more material possessions, they are falling.
It also shows smthg like the second of Christ.
It's rather hard to describe the images i saw.
Abstract.
But the underlying meaning is like "Wow!"
Ate beef rice, microwave food.
Doesn't taste nice.
Still prefer pasta.
Completed my individual reflection & my part of the grp work :)
Thx God for that!
However, i heard that still need to do daily reflection -.-
Thought just submit once a wk so is easier, but then still have to submit the daily ones
when back in S'pore.
Quite waste of time i think.
Somemore not always have stuff to talk or reflect about.
Weird...
Oh ya,
Smthg funny happened!
My coursemates placed a pizza in a microwave for 25mins
& there were smoke coming out.
Firemen were here then..haha..
Sometimes 7-11 pizza like only 5 mins or so.. >.<

Thx God for technology :)
Able to chat by e-buddy or web sms.
There was a talk after lunch.
On reggio emilia.
Was copying down the notes that i've taken from the site visits instead of listening to the
presentation =p
Only paid attention when there was a video.
Project discussion after sch.
Did till 8 plus.
Bathed then only had dinner at 10.30pm.

No choice, most convenient food.

Supposed to be like a gathering, but we didn't talk much with those VIP.
Juz interested in our food..Lol..
Did laundry.
Haix..
When go collect it, realized that one of my friends actually placed in her UNDERWEAR!! =.=
Other friends also think it shld be common sense as not to put in that.
Well, my other friends & i decided to wash my clothes again bcoz of hygiene purpose.

Both students from S'pore and US.
US students did interesting topics like Poverty, Public Health, Education etc..
After that, there was a reception.
Indian food, not bad.
Took quite a lot of pic too.
Lotza laughter & fun ;)
Oh ya!
I think smthg is wrong with the xD memory card.
Couldn't view those pic by com, so i put it back
& can't even view it thru the cam itself!
At first, there was "Write Protect".

Bought something from an art & craft shop.
Student still got discount :)
There's a DISCOUNT at a shoe shop!!
Actually already decided not to buy any shoes here, but in the end,
i bought a pair =p
Nice pair!
Actually there's a pair that costs only $9.99!
So cheap! Hehe..
I didn't get that pair though.
Shopped till close to 12 plus then returned sch =p
when class starts at 1pm lo..haha..
Chicken noodle soup for lunch.
Worried that i might be hungry so i bought anymore raspberry bun.
However, that bun is left till dinner.
Quite full after the soup.
Did laundry & chiong assignment after sch while my friends went shopping.
Hardworking me..hehe..
My right leg hurt!
Dunno how i've injured myself :(
Have difficulty climbing up & down the stairs.
Thurs Jun 12
As usual to the same centre.
And then shopping after that =)
Bought smthg from GAP..hehe..
And a top that only costs $6!!
Lunch: Grilled cheese sandwich
Leg condition worsen.
Can even feel the pain now when walking.
Bought the hot/cold pack (waste additional $$)
No choice.
Anyway, had a very full dinner.
Fri Jun 13
Last day of the site visit to that centre.
We went earlier than usual, like left the dorm at 7plus.
Didn't have breakfast at the cafeteria.
Went Downtown Crossing shopping! ^^
Bought a gift from Bath & Body Works.
Smthg like The Body Shop, but since S'pore doesn't have that shop, just got smthg from there.
Also shopped at H&M.
Cool! Having great sales!
The prices can be as low as $5!
Unlike s'pore >.< haha..
However, their prices kinda weird bcoz the price on the tag is before tax.
So when making payment, it's more than $5 actually.
Dunno why they simply don't have the final price then.
Well, almost a wk, i seemed to be shopping more than studying =p
LOL..
So far i enjoyed being in Boston!
Will be having discussion later though.

Nice that they call it children's centre instead of childcare centre.
Oh my gosh!
The children are so adorable!!
I like there eyes!
Esp blue ones! LoL..
Unfortunately can't take a pic with them.
Btw my professor drove my grp there..haha..
Yes, seems 'big sign' haha..
Coz dunno where our escort went
& we can't possibly go by ourselves as we dunno the place at all.
Was kinda giddy when returned to campus.
Perhaps it's due to the terrible heat.
Though not very well, i still go 'shopping' =p
Don't wanna miss the chance of being here.
Anyway, it wasn't exactly shopping.
Was walking down the street.
See see look look.
Ended up in another supermarket again..haha..

Still thinking of it even till now.
Maybe it's true that,
What's yours will eventually be yours,
while what's not, no matter how hard you try to get it,
there will be reasons that prevent you from obtaining.
Have been hunting for it in almost other outlets, but to no avail.
When i saw bugis has it, i was so happy!
Yet it's disappointment.
Anyway, i eventually bought the converse shoes.
Hopefully will continue to wear it after the trip still =p
