I am such a nice flatmate
Happy Halloween everyone
This morning I did a breakthrough
My parents would be so pleased - I fried some eggs for breakfast!!! It was a breakthrough because those who know me well would know I never eat eggs; and this morning I not only ate fried eggs, I even fried them myself!!! And it turned out very nice (I mean I did not burn the eggs, and they tasted good 
)!!! Haha I am so proud of myself... I never made breakfast the previous 3 years in hall during my Undergraduate studies; and now I am making breakfast - and a proper English Breakfast too, with toast, fried eggs with ham, and susage! I am such a genius Sad I did not take a photo of it... Another day struggling with Jacob Burckhardt. I am behind schedule...
Pedro (Is this his name? God I am so bad with names...) came again and fixed the plug at my washing basin
Zaleha misses him every time I see why she is attracted to him - he is goodlooking, and really nice. Every time it is him who does all the maintenance stuff, and the other steward only appears when there is an opportunity to show off 
Zaleha's friend came and she invited me to join them to dinner. She mentioned a stupid white woman who wrote in a newspaper article deriding Malaysian women and exerting her own superiority, that Malaysian men now choose white girls as girlfriends
What I can say is only that the person who writes such a thing to the newspaper is just too STUPID and IGNORANT to be taken seriously I thought people nowadays know what RACISM mean???

Changed to Winter Time today 
What is it to have a celebrity in your list? 
But of course it only serves my vanity; as he is so well-loved by all that it is just fain to expect he ever will have the time to update his entries
I gave out my little presents and my flatmates were very happy (though, to my surprise, they did not really know about Halloween) Rose proposed a dinner party, and she really set out to buy the stuffs and even forbade me to help in anyway Linlin was not there, so it was only Rose, Zaleha, Ming and me. Had a great time - Rose's food was good, we talked a lot, and even played with the mobile phone camera It is a good thing to have this sort of gathering once in a while, to keep us from becoming dummies by over-studying
Sorry but suddenly I feel wretched; and I do not want to write anymore...

Received another parcel of books from Amazon.co.uk in the morning. Went to the campus. Then the rest of the day ruminating (I like this word - ruminating
And I remember that was the explanation he gave for "brooding", which Professor Tambling said was even more difficult ) over my Jacob Burckhardt 
Seems like the plan of watching 'Bad Education' at Prince Charles Cinema would have to be postponed until I finished the presentation I want to wear my new clothes and be immersed into the London streets of the West End There will be a Mozard Festival at Bath in November - not sure if Jessica Leung will be interested... may be I can go by myself again, as I want to explore Jane Austen's Bath too
I miss those 2 weeks when I walked around London all by myself. I could go to all those exhibitions and monuments, pay homage to my 'saints' and not feel uneasy about causing any boredom to my companions

)...Yesterday Dr Brotton did not lead the seminar (missed him
) and Evelyn Welch, an Italian Renaissance expert, spent the 2 hours at Warburg with us. I liked the seminar It was so lively, with small group exercises and slide demonstrations. May be the topic itself - visual culture in Renaissance Italy - was novel and therefore interesting to us. It seems a good idea to work with visual materials in my course essay - paintings of El Bosco, Brugel, Jan Van Eyck... Went to UCL with Jessica Leung afterwards. Love that Classical entrance - felt like being in Plato's Academy
And then proceeded to Oxford Circus. Got to explore Kingly Court finally Liberty was intimidating Got a glass with flower print at Laura Ashley, some tea at Whittard, and a knit-top at Topshop Dinner at HK Diner at China Town. Our next meeting would be the Designer Sales this Thursday - looking forward to it ****
Went to Sainsbury in the morning, and missed a mail
Not sure if they will redeliver it... Received a warning letter from the Residence Office, regarding the cleaniness of the kitchen. Zaleha was infuriated - she was right - why should we be penalized for other people's faults?
Do not know how the responsible parties feel - but then if they know about filthiness they would not have allowed themselves to be filthy in the first place Being nice and friendly is not enough to make a good flatmate... The rest of the day devoted to Sir Philip Sidney's sonnet sequence - I did not realize its length, or else I would have begun earlier
But as I read on, I found reminences of Goethe's Werther there in Astrophil - or rather the other way round, since Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther was published somewhere around the late 18th century - some 200 years later than Sir Philip Sidney's Astrophil and Stella The Lovesick - can men really be such a Lover? 
(And yet, I think I once knew such a man...)And then got to know that Simon had too little sleep working and fell ill - looks like students here cannot really enjoy London life because of the heavy school work
Whenever I call people are busying (even now, I should be finishing my readings instead of writing this...). Anyway, take care Simon and let's hang out some other time (though unforseeable...)
