Jinzhan's Naggings

Today something very bad thing happened. my fellow NUS friend who is on exchange wif me - Xinhui - lost USD 800. she left it in her locker and it is gone at around 10 am. a police report was made. i think i will curse e thief forever..

I am very worried about all those who are out for SEP, especially the girls - most of u will be out away from families for e longest period of time. Many may try to deny but most are not very street-smart. I just talked to Wang Jun, my lab senior, today and he gave me alot of tips too. Some of these might sound very naggy but please, do not ignore them!

Some more luo1 shuo1-ings from me:

1) stay away from dark areas even in groups
2) use e security escort services (UCLA got this number u can call for e guards to bring u ard campus from one pt to another)if ur uni provides when it gets dark
3) carry all cash with u always
4) deposit cash into a bank if your wallet holds more than 300
5) dont be PAISEH. in U.S. there is no such thing as paiseh! treat yourself better, no need to think for others. they can think for themselves. know your rights and use it well =)
xinhui thinks too much for her roommates. when she returned to her room and wanna use her laptop on her bed. she saw some ppl sleeping already so she took out her laptop and use at some other areas. i think this is e time e thief strikes or maybe she forgot to latch her locker at this instant. actually there is no need to shift away lor. then the theft wouldnt have happened.
6) alot of ppl in U.S. are out to cheat FOBs (fresh off board) like us, so when u shop and u r not sure if u really want it, ask for e return policy. most clothes can be returned within 1 month with the receipt and e tag (dont cut them; u can even wear e clothes out wif e tags hidden and see if u like them first =p)

And also, it is gg to get even colder. Some tips:

1) always bring an extra jacket along wif u; put it in ur bag
2) when u walk outside. tell ur mind tat it is not cold.
3) breathe deeply and slowly and enjoy e view around u. u will feel warm =)
4) when u wear your scarf, wrap it all e way around ur neck to your chin. See how i wear them in my pics below.
