My laptop is so gone so I can't use the internet as and when I would like to which is absolutely horrible. I'm blogging from a computer at the front desk of the hotel reception now and the connection is cannot make it one... it gets disconnected every few minutes. -_-''' I'm trying to not be bitter over the fact that my mum refused to get me a new laptop? Well, she should try being me for a day, experience what it feels like to be halfway across the world having classes at where she has dreamt about coming to for the last 2.5 years and not being able to use the computer to do research; upload the photos taken on Facebook,and Skype+MSN with the pple she loves. That said, I should try being her for a day. And I bet I'll hate it to the core. Poverty is a curse and damn, I want to be rich. My children shall never have to face this kind of desperate situation. I shall be a generous and loving mother who will allow my children to live comfortably and happily.

Okay, enough of my blabbering. I shall remind myself of the good things that are happening to me. During lunch break in OCU today, I was queuing to go into the cafeteria when this tall, black lady right behind me complimented about my shades and when I was about to pay, she simply asked that the bill be on her and treated me lunch! I was very happy of course and thanked her. And she doesn't even know my name. Would this kind of thing happen in S'pore? I doubt so. Asians, or at least, myself growing up, are taught not to talk to strangers, blah blah blah, all that kind of nonsense. Treat a stranger whom you met for the first time to a meal? Never! I love the American culture. I love it for its generosity, I love it for its liberality, I love it for its creative power. Throw away all the immorality in it and American culture would be awesome. Wendy is Americanized in her outlook in life(if you haven already noticed)... I prize freedom and liberality like the Americans do. I love their music, I love their movies, I love their style, their language and so much more. It's America baby! Haha.

During lunch break, I also met this student, a black girl called Angelina who is working part-time in the PLUS (for oversea programs) office when she's not having classes. She was really nice, helping me to log onto my OCU email which I had trouble getting into initially and answering the questions that I had for her. Yeah, you know me, asking questions is like my middle name. Those who can't stand this learning habit of mine can't survive being friends with me and that's just too bad! I only managed to log onto my OCU email just now and finally, after 2.5 years of being a OCU student, I am in the OKCU network on Facebook, yayness. =P

After class this evening, we were brought to see the Chickasha Festival of Holiday Lights. I saw many ang moh children there and I said hi and took pictures of them! Heh. =D And no, I can't show you photos now, no thanks to my laptop. But soon, I hope... Might consider buying a laptop here with the money that my mum, grandma and da gu has blessed me with for this trip. Yes, I'm truly blessed... more than I even realize myself. After enjoying the display of lights, Professor Leo Weneke, the one who gave me an A+ for Philosophy class, treated all of us to ice cream at Braums. And mind you, that was 45 people at least. And he must have spent at least a hundred US dollars, just like that. This is how generous Americans are okay... stingy Singaporeans out there, GET A LIFE.

As you ought to know, I am taking my Environmental Science class now. Professor Louis Krutchwitz is probably in her 50s or 60s and she speaks rather slowly and monotonously and her teaching style is pretty haphazard, jumping from one topic to another without clear transitions in between... And a Science class is pretty mind-boggling for a pure Arts student like me. Oh well, only 2 more days of classes with her. And I'm so dead if she reads this, haha. In the morning later, we're going on a field trip to the Wichita mountain here in Oklahoma. It's already freezing cold here on the ground level, so man, it's gonna get interesting up there, lol. I'll probably be insulating myself with 4 layers and no less. The bus leaves at 7.30am, I have to wake up at 6am, it's 1.55am here now and it took me more than an hour to type this entry (see why I haven been blogging that often now? =P) . I haven't talked so much on my blog for a long time. I hope this entry has been a thought-provoking and interesting one for you! Till next time, adious. Pls keep me in prayers all my dear friends, one of my classmates has fallen ill and I can't afford to do so, what with the freezing cold weather here... Love ya all! =)
