twenty years it's breaking you down
the name is vanessa but everybody calls me van. estranged ex-NJCanoeist of 2004/05 K2-500m. I'm a WSO (FIGHTER) trainee and I'm doing my BA(Hons) English and Politics in the University of York. I like fast cars, literature, art and tulips. I cannot cook. When I was younger I wanted to be an astronaut. I am hopeless at math or anything remotely related to formulae. I detest parsley. I love the colour burgundy. My Macbook is my bestfriend and I've played with Macs since I was 15 so no, I didn't jump on the bandwagon. I have lofty dreams but I'm often afraid to chase them. I don't get angry I get disappointed. I intend to learn Spanish and German. Oh, and I think Liverpool kicksmajorass - I am not a fair-weathered fan. I think ambiguity is beautiful.

Lyrics by: The Fray
domingo, febrero 19, 2006
Today was a nicenicenice day. Had a nice time just sitting down at Thai Express and Max Brenner's chocolate bar chitchatting over stick noodles, calamari and chocolate fondue. Company was good - we do get along quite well - and the food was terribly sinful. It was a sluggish, lazy day, but yet its days like these that we really should cherish. It's rare that we actually get to just sit down amidst a nice ambience and just mull time away, blissfully unaware of the people and flurry of activity around us. The sheer indolence of the wind as it playfully caressed the trees, the clouds shifting and floating.. everything was perfect today. Perfect R&R.

I can't believe that in less than 2 weeks time, I'll be passing out. BMT phase will soon be over.. 1st March, to be exact. Amazing. 41st WOCC - my extended family over the past 2 months.. we'll all be split up. The Navy people would head to MIDS wing, the Airforce people will go to AIR wing. Only the Army ladies would stay in SIERRA. Honestly, I've more or less decided that I'll stay in Sierra if everything goes well with the dreaded results. It's now the vocation of choice. Armour? Artillery? Guards? Infantry? Signals? What the heck. Like I was just saying today, I hate making decisions, but yet I know the time to take a stand is drawing nearer..

Thinking about the future scares me. Sigh. During my block leave till 20th March, would probably be going abroad.. perhaps to Aussieland, according to daddy. Then I can recce Canberra/Australia National University, and after that take a train to Brisbane or something to visit my aunt. Gold Coast - if nothing goes wrong - here I come!
