hey i'm back. i took photos of the chocolate truffles i made last night xD
but i'm lazy to upload now xD and i'm lazy to sort through my christmas photos too
i feel inspired to make more truffles - they seem kinda successful :P though doing the chocolate shell was a bit messier than i thought it would be.

xin has become more egoistic over the months xD
i was looking at my very first few posts (firstly i didn't really remember any of those things happening - how come i managed to do so many things but i don't remember) and i realize that when i first started writing a blog, i didn't use 'i'. it was just xin this and xin that and she did this and she did that. lol. suddenly i feel older.

xin thinks she revives her blog during essays/exam times cos that's the time she feels the loneliest.. sitting by herself in front of her laptop, reading, editing and typing, the clicking of the keys on the keyboard fills the silent room :( occassionally the sound of a car engine zooms past, or the sound of happy chattering walks by, and just some times, a little sunlight filter through, illuminating the room for a while... but otherwise, it's just so quiet and dim in here. maybe no one reads the blog anymore, but it somehow feels like i'm talking to someone, maybe someone in the future who suddenly wondered how xin is doing and decided to peruse her blog entries... maybe to myself when i'm 30 years old and wondering what i used to do..

from my window, i see the chimney of the next block - the sun is filtering through the blinds now, casting shadows of the books i lined on the window sill.. the light is reflecting off the pots and pans that i left sitting on the hob because i'm too lazy to keep them in the cupboard. the light never reaches the sofa where i'm sitting. but it's warm here, because the heater is right behind me.

i think i will go to the gym and run for the first time in like a month o_O and then come back and type a boring essay on rational choice theory! byee..
