It's soOo hot it's not even funny.
Never in my 6 years of living in Aussieland (or Singapore, for that matter) have I ever had a 40*C day. Tomorrow is going to be the first time in my history. I.Am.Not.Happy.
It's so unbelievably hot that I can feel my flesh burning as I walk down the road. No wonder people get skin cancer here. And there's no frigging air-con in my hostel. I wanted to leave after I finished my work today but my mentor said, "Why not stay and enjoy the air-con in the office?" But nooooo....I just had to leave to rush back to my sauna of a room. I have to cook and iron tonight but I just don't feel like moving at the moment. If I do, sweat is going to pour out of my pores. It ain't pretty, people.
A few things today made me smile but I can't tell you what. They are my secrets with God.
Tomorrow we are scheduled to do cross-interviewing in the morning *groan*. If there's one thing I hate, it's public speaking. How is interviewing public speaking? Well, first of all the whole class is going to be watching. Secondly, my mentor is going to be watching. Thirdly, the interview is going to be taped. Fourthly, the tape will be played back and my mentor is going to point out my mistakes. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! They couldn't even let us off on a Friday!!!
On a lighter note, read this: http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2008/03/13/1205126058743.html
I found it so absurd that I couldn't even speak.

And something for Singaporeans to be excited about:
PS: By the way, IKEA is pronounced EE-KAY-YUH - I was right!! Check it up online if you don't believe me. That's how the Swedish people pronounce it. NO MORE EYE-KI-YA!!!
