So considering all the unfortunate events this week, I still think my weekend was, well, quite, alright. I still am missing Switzerland, it's been what, a week?

So here I am enjoying my Sunday afternoon. For once, I didn't get a huge load of homework that I'd have to slave over the weekends. Not that I would do them anyway with the terrible habits I have of leaving my work to the last minute. I probably have posted about this before but only did I realise for the past week (when writing my CV and Cover letter for the work experience week in June), I've been seriously considering my life after high school after I leave Hong Kong for good.

I still want to pursue a career in fashion. That's never changed. But then, I've found a way of possibly making some extra cash to supply myself with some shopping cash. Especially when I need like, a lot right now for my snowboarding gear for this summer holiday. After I started learning all about website designing (CSS and HTML) in DT class, I realised, I could actually do this. And I mean, I do enjoy things like that, which I'm guessing officially makes me a computer geek? :) Then I was also thinking about life after high school. Without a doubt, I'm leaving Hong Kong, preferably to somewhere in Europe. Or maybe to the UK, depending on my university and if I get into St Martin's College of Art and Design. Reason being, I realised how much life there, suits me better than life here. I prefer non-chinese food, I prefer not to communicate in chinese, I hate the fast pacing in every part of Hong Kong, I prefer living in houses to apartments and I love snowboarding.

So I guess the huge love for snowboard has something to do with it. But honestly, I can't handle the insane pacing in Hong Kong, speaking cantonese, basically the whole lifestyle and shebang. I suppose I'm that person who loves waking up at 8, 9 am in the morning and taking a slow stroll down the streets to have some roadside breakfast before heading off to wherever I have to go. Then when I have my holidays, I'd take a trip to wherever, to do a few days, week of snowboarding. That's what's for, a slow, nice lifestyle. The lifestyle in Europe. I'm pretty determined to go. Right after high school. Okay I'm going to work hard, and produce this fab, insanely awesome portfolio and go to my dream school. :)

This is going to shock you all. Tomorrow's monday, and I'm kind of, pumped. English class is going fly by, so is math and science and I guess chinese although I'm a little uncertain about that. But art class, is going to be amazing. We're having a year 11 production of The Crucible. The drama peeps are of course, performing and the stage crew. I guess the music peeps are in charge of the sound effects, music all that and as for the art peeps which includes me, we're designing the sets, posters and costumes. It's amazing. I was told that we'd all sketch out our costume ideas and meet with the characters. Then, some of them would be chosen and sent off to Shenzhen to be made. Yes, the characters would be wearing the costumes we designed, on stage, in front of everyone. It's a pretty amazing feeling.

Anyway, I think I'm going to facebook now so ttfn.

DAY 6 OF OPTIMISM.
