Perplexed – 11:49pm, Jan 2nd
I was added on one of my personal networking sites by some spam under
the name “Mona”, which had the odd consequence of jogging some formerly
lost bit of memory that I can’t quite retrieve. I seem to remember once
having a friend or acquaintance by the name of Mona, a somewhat lanky
average-height Chinese girl with long hair (slightly curly), but I have
absolutely no idea from where or whence I knew this person. I have a
feeling it was sometime during undergrad, might possibly have been from
kung fu, perhaps from rez – I don’t think from science world but I could
be wrong, and I’m pretty sure not from grad school.hmm…
[edit: 12:48am, I just remembered. Mona, the fencing girl, Shuyi's
friend, from the last year of undergrad. Surprising how these little
details slip with time. I wonder whatever happened to her.]–
Anyway, as for me, still a little sick. Got an intermittant cough now.
Sucks to be sick over the new year, but oh well. Spent the last two days sleeping to try to recover, but this
lingering cold is being recalcitrant about giving me up. grr. Oh
well.
Doesn’t take from the
fact that it’s so cool to have gotten a Wii for xmas! Went boxing day
shopping and got a second controller with the future shop gift card from
Karen and Zhongxi, then got Super Mario Galaxy and Resident Evil
Umbrella Chronicles to add to the Wii Sports that came with the bundle.
Spent an hour yesterday on a whim and made a Ichigo Mii (actually, I’m
quite proud of the results, even without having a proper orange for the
hair), followed by a Rukia Mii, and a Neo Mii – posted them on the “Check-Mii-Out” Wii
channel in case anyone wanted to see them since I’d just also set up the
wireless for the Wii.
Happy New Year All!
