filling in the missing bits

Ths past few days that i've been missing in action in here, doesnt quite mean that i've really been missing action!

first, my pretty joybook went into the shop for servicing, as you all know, it kinda crashed on me while i was rushing for my projects. Not so joyful after all... (that's what i told the customer service person at the store)
Went to the Benq drop off point at Funan, and i got lousy service.
The people couldnt be bothered to serve me, so much for customer service man.
Being typical of me, i gave them shitty remarks and attitude. After all, im the customer, and no matter how old my laptop is, i should still be treated right. That's the basic principle of setting up a business.
so Being bitchy and all, i told the person who was serving me to take a good hard look at the exterior of my baby. It has no scratches, or physical damage, and he is to ensure that my baby comes back in GOOD mint condition, or i'll hold him responsible.

well well, he got my baby a bubble bag for safe keeping. Hiak hiaks, and i left the store in a huff.

Next, I went to the Body shop sale some days later, with Da, and managed to meet Si hui, Jocelyn and Dan Li there a well, and we manged to hang out at bugis for awhile, after Da left to meet up with her school mates for her law assignment, taking with her my prized, fully tagged Commercial Law textbook. Hmpf studious girl posuer! Bleah! (not that im the studious one... i bought the tagged book from Daniel..so he's the studious one!)
I managed to get myself quite a few goodies from Body shop, spending about alittle over $50 at the sale.

for the next few days, i tried unsuccessfully to settle down and study. I have to start with something, so i started with my weakest and yuckiest subject... Managment Accounting!
Forced myself to read up the textbook that i borrowed from Eric, and after some feeble attempts, i had better luck snoozing, whenever i stare at the MAB lecture notes.

The beanie went to do his sound system, and i went along to look see in the evening, to check on the progress. Being bored, and it took the people from morning 9 plus til past midnight alright. so i practically sat around the workshop from 5 plus to midnight.
Having nothing better else to do, the MAB notes came into handy!!!
Haha, that's where i found myself really attempting to understand the notes, after all, there's really nothing for me to do there, except to see a bunch of smelly man hanging around the car.

The boo's friend came along, so he had company, while i studied. Not long after, more company arrived after 7pm. Sigh. Men and their herd like mentality. tsk tsk.
They claim that girls always visit the toilet in pairs, while men, they do everything in herds! From collection of cars, to audio systems, and anything to do with cars, u'll see a bunch of them for sure.
We went off for dinner together, and they stayed with us til past midnight to chat. all 6 of them, plus the boo and i.

I learnt alot about using my ears, and alot more about the $$ involved in installing fancy gadgets in the car. Haha.

i caught a movie on Tuesday with My boo and Winston after we're done with the tuning part, at the workshop, and we caught "the 40 year old virgin". It's hilarious, and everyone should just watch. I laughed pretty hard during the movie, especially the waxing part. It's just so funny. Shouldnt elarborate more lest i spoil your fun.

We went over to West Coast Mac to chill and chat after the movies, and on my way home, i discovered that my precious pendant is missing!!! It's nowhere to be found, and naturally, i got very, very upset. Trying hard to recall where i could possibly have dropped it at.

My sweet boo decided to accompany me home, in a last attempt to hunt around the house alittle.
Guess what? I found my necklace underneathe my pile of pillows! The precious pendant had been sitting at home all the while. Phew!
The necklace must have snapped while i was asleep. (yes im violent when i sleep, and i never make my bed..)

So far i've been told that i kick, twitch, laugh, talk and yell in my sleep. Which doesn't quite explain why the clasp of the necklace broke off.
Yeah, enough of my sleeping patterns.

I went to get the dumb necklace repaired at soo kee, wisma, and it'll be ready in 2 weeks time, with a charge of $10. does repairing a clasp of the necklace take that long? I really wonder.
Then i met up with the Zoe! We went walking around, getting her wallet replaced at Braun Buffel. She decided on the whitish pearly one that i chose, and i could tell that the girl was having a hard time deciding on the old Flora one that i chose for her, or the new contemparary one that i've yet selected for her.

She settled for the new design, coz it wouldn't get dirty easily, unlike the flora one. Yeps, case close for the birthday present saga.

We went for our tea/dinner and gossiped as usual. Then i saw Amanda, Allyson and Sabrina. How time flies! Amanda's getting married soon.
Seems like people of my age are either getting married really soon, or are already married.
It sure sounds fun, but somehow, i can't seem to envision myself being married. Urgh! bad imagination, or just a person with lousy foresight?

I showered the pig after my second dinner, coz she's smelly when i picked her up.
Yep, showered her at 11 in the night. Smelly pig! smelly pig! but she smells like almonds now.

FYI, i passed my Econs. Boy am i happy! At least that last min bit of cramming did rub off alittle. Too bad for my MAB though. Sigh. I really wanna pass all my subjects this exams.
Meaning that i probably would have to log off, and force myself to study.

i have this sudden inspiration to make all my notes into paper pulp, then create some paper mache art pieces. Should i?

Happy 20th month anniversary to the boo & i! Whooppee!!
