staring at the sun

yay! my tan is back! ok, don't mean to sound superficial here, but the lousy michigan winter has left me all white and positively pasty. lucky for me, the sun was out in full force today, and me and tommy spent the whole afternoon at the diag reading, napping and simply soaking up the precious sunlight! ahh... melanin... mine's finally back!

enjoyed myself lots the past weekend. went to uiuc with 32 other singaporeans from umich for the mid-western games. a few other colleges participated, namely northwestern, uiuc, chicago, purdue, michigan state, indiana, and wisconsin, competing in soccer, basketball, captains' ball and badminton. it was really an eye opener really. not just about the girls of course. long lost friends were found, new acquaintances were forged, and friendship was strengthened amid the the great sportsmanship displayed. was a little angry at the start, however, when an uiuc player wore this t-shirt that said "muck fichigan". our soccer team swore to defeat the illini. the guy later turned out to be quite friendly actually, and our anger soon subsided.

we won captain's ball and basketball in the end. our soccer team was third. all in all, even though we competed fiercely in all our games, i think friendship prevailed, and all of us truly enjoyed ourselves during the 2 days spent in illinois.
