stolen colours

We took a 1.5-hour ferry ride to the offshore island of Mljet for 22 kunas (off-peak). The ferry departed at 9am, with tickets on sale at 8.30am.

Kenny and I endured a painful overnight 13-hour coach ride (184 kunas) from Zagreb to Dubrovnik, a coastal town in Croatia. I couldn’t recline my seat as either the lever was broken or I was just plain stupid; people were yakking away; and the driver had the radio on quite loud, so he wouldn’t fall [...]

The host, Davok (sp?) told us of various attractions we should visit. He had this way of saying “You will see” like a divine prediction, e.g. “Croatia is beautiful. *pause* You Will See.” or “the bus-stop is opposite the fountain.

The KLM flight was rather good. The food wasn’t too bad. The in-flight entertainment system is fantastic: the movies came in numerous categories, each of which contained 10 or so movies. I [...]

The pills are for delaying my period till after the Europe trip, of course. Love from Father comes in the form of a medical pack, with medicine for fever, pain, gastroenteritis, flu, allergic reactions [...]

I watched episodes 20-22 (final) of Red Garden tonight. Spoilers ahead in my thoughts on this series.

Read the rest of Red Garden - the end, for now.

The pathology written paper on Tuesday didn’t go too well. It was easy, but so easy that I didn’t study the easy things very well, instead on focusing on the harder things. Grr. It warranted a sinful lunch treat, so Penance and I hopped over to Kaisan at Raffles Hotel. I’m ashamed to say that [...]
