freelance work possible?

I can't remember since when I like having a reflection. Yesterday I was trying to find out how I spent my summer holiday and found that during this summer break I mainly went to gym, did food shopping, meeting friends/ex-colleagues, dealt with flat-related issues and surfed the internet. I also found that I seemed to know more about my body, my health this year (but also found how ignorant I have been about my own health & body!), when so many health problems came up - stomachache, dizziness, headache, back pain, blood in stool, hives, skin allergy, red spots on skin, etc. My views & mental state have also got challenged - how the society shapes us with those 'traditional' views/ethnics and what's right and wrong.

Got a strange dream last night. I dreamt that a BA plane crashed into a school! and then people got evacuated and it was like some ET attacking the earth! =_=' Maybe I've read too many news about those things?

After meeting that lecturer from Man U about her research last week, I was asked for help by a friend of mine, who's now an assistant Professor at City U in HK, with her research. It happened that I had done the questionnaire for her research before, but I didn't know then that it was her research. Anyway, I did feel a bit 'excited' when it comes to research, even just helping others. Or, am I just excited about having 'something' to do while I'm unemployed?

The 5th day of my volunteering at Art Gallery this afternoon. Less volunteers and participants than on Tuesday. I hid myself in the store room where I tried to cut shapes of flowers, music icons, leaves, apples, glasses, etc. for baskets which children could collect while they were looking at those pictures at the gallery. My team leader asked me to come out rather than cutting shapes which may be boring. But I didn't find it boring. Hmm, maybe I enjoyed being on my own finishing a task?!

Got to talk to one of the volunteers while we were cutting shapes. She just got her A-level results yesterday and she'd be going to the University of Edinburgh to study History & Art. I told her I'd be going to Edinburgh soon, trying to be friends with her; she did answer my questions but she seemed a bit cool. Hmm... The volunteer whom I had worked with a few times before didn't turn up today; I was wondering if her A-Level results were ok, since last time she said she'd come to Art Gallery today...

Just found out I needed to submit the MAC code to plusnet. That means I have to ask my ex-flatmate to get it for me from o2. o2 AGAIN!! =_=' It's like a nightmare to me...

Oh, BTopenzone connection was on and off many times today; my mobile phone clashed quite a few times today, and its battery didn't last as long as before. What's wrong with it? Is it time for it to 'retire'? Or, has it got virus? :S
