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!!

It's over
Well.. im relieved that the Triumph competition is finally over.
It's been a hectic 2 days for me.
There's Cristofori's marketing projectdue on monday, and there's the Triumph competion that's due today.
Unluckily, the beloved laptop has to act up on me at important times such as this, and i spent my entire wednesday night getting the boo to fix my com. Lucikily, everything's up and about, but when im done with the Cristofori project, i'll proabably have to send Benq in for a body check up. There's simply too much conflicts and file corruptions despite it's fancy new covering.
Due to the delay, i spent the whole of yesterday night, rushing for Triumph's visuals. 2 day's worth of work, rushed into one night is simply madness.
I went to bed at 7am today, overslept and woke up at 1 to complete the remaining visuals that i supposed to do, though i know that i could have done better!
Im glad everything is done & submitted in time, it's such a relieve for me!
One burden down!
Well well... Cristofori's next! I cant wait to drop the Cristofori burden on monday, and i just realised that i've missed my Ice-cream Buffet in school!!! Argh!
There's still so much to be done for marketing project, and there's still so much uncertainties, i seriously hope that my team will buck up and start doing their stuff seriously now.
Every meet up, there's bound to be changes to the strategies. So so much for unity and team work. Falling apart sounds more like it.
thinking about is is sheer exhaustion.... im gonna collasp soon!
there's zit outbreaks and dark eye rings to combat..... from the stress and the lack of sleep i'll suppose, and it's gonna cost me a bomb to undo the physical damage that projects have inflicted on me.
There's exams coming soon too. OMG i got to start studying really soon. Especially for ECONS and Managment Accounting.
To think that i'm still thinking of taking part in another competition....
I think i must be mad!

Pepper Lunch!
Pepper Lunch! Yummy. It's a rather interesting way of dining... it's like a fast food sort of tepanyaki. It's being served in a hot plate, with barelycooked/raw beef slices, and a scoop of rice. You're supposed to mix it well, so that the butter, rice and meat will taste yummy.
To make it taste yummier, you're supposed to add condiments of your choice. It's either honey brown sauce, or garlic black sauce. I preferred the honey bown sauce, coz it's sweeter.
Yep. Place a scoop of rice in your mouth, and go Mmmmmmmm. It's delicious!
But a tad too salty for my liking. Might be my generous amount of honey brown sauce, might be the generous butter that's mixed into my rice..but i can't quite tell.
Truthfully, i felt like a retard, when the sizzling plate of yummy lunch appeared before me.
I didn't know that i'll have to stir my beef to ensure that it's properly cooked, and neither do i know that there's butter hidden in my rice. Yup yup.
Went walking around town with the boo for awhile, before i went home, and collasped onto my comfy bed, and while the boo reports for work.
The folks had no idea that i was home, fast asleep. Which also meant that i wasn't included in dinner plans. Poor daphy.. no dinner.
I had to rummage through the fridge..emerging with a box of apple strudel.
Making do with the apple strudel... it's disappointing to know that the apple kinda taste like wine.
Boo! there goes apple strudel. I tried picking on whatever pastries that hasn't been infected with the "ripening" process... and ate the custard cream at the side.
Oh joy! what yummy dinner.
I ended up with instant noodle...the quick and sure to taste good solution. Haha.
. .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . ..
Today was a pain in the ass day.
Literally pain pain to my ass. It's been such a long time, since i last sat for an hour, travelling from west to east. I had a good time sleeping in the very stuffy no. 7 bus. Boy it's gross. The smell of sweaty people, the market smell that people bring along with them, when they board the bus, together with their dead dripping chicken and fish and pork and beef and vege. Yucks!
Sitting in the train, heading to school is yet another gut retching experience. The smell! The Body Ordour! Urgh. Not that im being racist..but somehow, indians tend to have this horrible smell of either curdled milk, or sweet incense smell lingering around whereever they go.
Nauseousness crept up rather quickly, and i've never been so glad to see Clementi station. Someone please remind me about my experience, the next time i intend to go on a long ride in the train.
Til now, i'm still feeling the aches of sitting down for too long. My poor backside.. Bleh.
Going to Cristofori's headquarters at Bedok had been quite an enriching experience for me.
I learnt alot about pianos, and to be reminded about how pretty baby grand can be. Fancy getting one for myself, though mommy will flip, if i really do get one. No Space! She'll probably tell me to get one for myself, when i have enough money, to get my own home. Haha.
I had yet another long chat with Zoe, and somehow, i feel much better talking to her. Somehow, talking about it, just seem to shrink the problems .
Weird, isn't it?
I do hope that my marketing project is gonna be alright, coz i really wanna get it over and done with. I've got enough of Cristofori, and it's getting alittle on my nerve. Having to juggle and bear with all the weird nonsense.
Triumph competition seems to be getting nowhere either, and it's beginning to get on my nerves. There's Econs test coming up this thursday, and im not ready for it yet. Not much of a choice, as to whether i like it or not. I'll eventually gotta face it. It doesnt help to know that everyone is studying and preparing for it. Yes! Kenny and Robin, and the rest.... You're making me feel real panicky! Bleh!
I guess i'll go grab dinner, and start on Econs soon, so that i'll be able to stroll through Bugis in peace, in the afternoon.
Tata..
Oh there's this indian man that's been constantly calling me back, to reply to a miss call. This is weirder. I don't recall making any out going calls to anyone in particular today. Wonder if Starhub screwed up?

mooncake anyone?
Mooncakes anyone?!
I think mooncakes are getting alittle too...overwhelming for me.
There's those normal ones from shangri la, snowkin with campedak filling ones from Goodwood hotel, and daddy bought this really elaborately packaged mooncakes from china..There's also the crystal jade ones, and the yummy frozen durian ones from dunno where. Also not forgetting the Tiramisu ones from Baby's mom.... Argh!
My sweet tooth's turning against me!!!!
To think that i was still considering getting the Bakerzin ones! I seriously doubt it man.
then because it's mommy's birthday, we've got apple strudel at home...and there's also those dragon's beard candy which was given to her from some company ( they replaced mooncakes with the dragon candy. Good choice! )...which is yummy!
Well well well....
Friday's dinner at Marche was good! We had lots of fun taking pictures, and i must have taken at least a hundred pictures, with at least 7 cameras! You could imagine all the noise we were making.
I guess it's politically right to say that we were a public nuisance, but who cares? As long as we enjoyed ourselves!
Adrian and Fiona took part in this grape stomping competition, and we won!!! It's gross, looking at those grapes being squashed by adrian's feet. yucks!
It was to promote Marche's wine fest!! The stomping act won them a glass of red wine each. Haha. I had my favourite pork knuckle as usual, and chicken breast. Luckily for my digestive system, i shared the pork knuckles with Daniel, and the waffles with daniel and gary.
We had strawberry cheesecake, to celebrate council member's birthdays. It's ok, but i realised that i seem to have lost taste for cheesecakes recently. So i didn't quite finish up mine. We stayed on to play games, and forfeit was to take a bite of mashed cheesecake mixed with lots of salt and pepper and whatever u had there. I was one of the lucky ones who had a go at the cheesecake... and it's salty!
Adrian, fiona, agacia and the rest left for Zouk, while the the remaining half (including myself) went on to Maestro Bistro at Cineleisure to chill on. It wasn't a very good experience over at the Maestro. Service was horrible, but we had a good time chatting and swapping gossips anyway.
---------------------------------------------------
Saturday, I devoured alittle of the apple strudel, before going over to Beanie's friend's house warming, and went to Goodwood Hotel to collect the mooncakes for Beanie's folks, and Grandpa, and our own. 3 boxes! But it's heavy alright! I had a hard time struggling around with 3 boxes of mooncakes.
first gotta drag it over to Clementi, pass it to beanie's folks, then travel home. My poor arms!
Mommy thought Beanie was fetching me, that's why she told me to collect them.
But truth is, he's working, so i have to take public transport la.
On my way home, curiosity got the better of me, so i decided to give the heavy mooncakes a prod! I was surprised that the skin's so so so soft!
So i prodded a few more times, before i was satisfied. =)
I ran home, and made mommy cut up one, just to try. (You know, since i wasted so much energy carrying around, the least that i could do, was to know how it taste like right?
We celebrated mommy's birthday, by having dinner..and we had steamboat! It's a simple place, with a ont so simple fanfare. There's geoduck, the elephant looking clam thingie, and there's live drunken prawns, fried chicken and the steamboat stuff la! It's good. yummy!
I went to meet baby for supper after he finished work. We had Ba Kut Teh! Yummy!!
I was exhausted by the time i reached home, so i changed, and fell into this superbly deep sleep. Haha!
---------------------------------------------------
Woke up, and had mommy's famous yummy prawn noodles. It's the only main dish that she's good at. FYI, my Mommy can't cook very well la.
Went to change the piggie's home, and shower the pig! Poor dirty girl had a bad bath time today.
But she emerged from the bathroom clean and fluffy!
We left for Grandpa's place soon after showering Pix!e, to deliver the mooncakes that i painstakingly brought home.
Had dinner at holland, and it's Har cheong kai, Black pepper crab, seafood soup, salted fish with bean sprouts, sambal kangkong, cereal fried prawns.
PRAWNS, is a constant diet in my family's meal. Coz i like it, and so does my brother. Sis is alittle picky though...she only FANCIES the FRESH ones. Haha...Yes so since i love the yolks in mooncakes, and i love prawns, that leaves me with very very high cholestrol. Yes i know that, so forget about reminding me about cholestrol level.
The only time i eat healthy, would be over at Beanie's house, where his mommy whips up delicous but healthy stuff for dinner. Sigh.
Better die young, and experience good food, than to die old, eating yucky mashy stuff that is classified as healthy!
That's my way of life!

phew..a relieve!
Im done with MAB test finally. Though i seriously doubt i'll pass, but it's good to be done with it. I had problems cramming for the test, as i was esaily distracted... by mini mooncakes, and freecell and god knows what. Basically, anything beats studying for MAB, even though i know that i should have started earlier.
Wanted to join the rest for after test celebration..but im kinda broke in a way, coz i gotta save money to get mommy's present. Besides, i was dead tired after the test. I fell into this deep deep sleep when i crashed the bed.
I'm clueless about what to get for dear old mommy. The stuff that i have in mind is either Freaking expensive, or nothing. Haha. Doesn't help that Dalena the sister is as broke as i am. We're on a tight budget....and i really mean tight. Sigh.. Life of a student... that's the poorest you can get.
Next online would be econs... i reckon that i start on econs soon, lest it turn out disastrous like MAB.
I was just reading through emails, and i realised that i haven't been checking mails for a long time. It's really bad, coz you're supposed to cultivate this habit of reading your emails daily, or more.... (esp when you start working in future) but com law and MAB test got the better of me i guess.
Im actually thinking of taking part in the christmas card design competition.. After all, the prize is $1000, and it sounds really fun and interesting.
Triumph competition seems to be coming up fine... and i really do hope that we'll triumph in the competition. Haha, pardon the punt with words..brain's sort of going lame recently.
I went shopping for mooncakes with mommy after waking up in the evening. We walked through the entire Taka square, and she made me try what seem like the hundredth mooncake, and they all taste the same, or similar. It's only the packaging that entices me.. i personally preferred the Bakerzin collection especially the sweet potato flavor. It's got this creamy taste to it, doesn't quite feel like you're eating a mooncake, and it's pretty!.
In terms of flavor, and packing, i like Bakerzin, like i mentioned earlier...
followed by this rooster one that may phua endorsed for. It's this huge cookie jar in the shape of a rooster...but i didnt try their product. It's cute!
I had to walk through the entire exhibit 3 -4 times... there's 4 seasons' durian mooncakes, big china mooncakes which was supposed to be good.... haagen daz ice cream ones...etc..
Can't quite remember the rest, but East ocean's mooncake tasted pretty good..coz it wasn't too sweet..though packaging was horrible. Erm the mom bought the ugliest of the lot. (meaning east ocean) Coz she said what matters is the taste.. not how it looks. Boo!
Over the weekend, i consumed nearly a dozen of mini mooncakes made by beanie's mom.
They aren't too sweet, and she's rather generous with the yolks. (slurp slurp) Since i was rather tied up with com law and MAB test..eating seem like the best way to make myself feel better.
In case you go tsk tsk about the chrolestrol level with the yolks... this auntie at the mooncake place told me that yolks are good for the memory! Whopppee! but..somehow.. i guess im i've got some yolk defiency going on..coz my memory's horrible! Next in line would be to polish off the tiramisu mooncakes, compliments from beanie's mommy...then would be mommy's.
Im such a glutton huh?
The start of student week is approaching.. looking forward to it, it's gonna be lots of fun! (i hope so) Whee!

I was just reading through emails, and i realised that i haven't been checking mails for a long time. It's really bad, coz you're supposed to cultivate this habit of reading your emails daily, or more.... (esp when you start working in future) but com law and MAB test got the better of me i guess.
Im actually thinking of taking part in the christmas card design competition.. After all, the prize is $1000, and it sounds really fun and interesting.
Triumph competition seems to be coming up fine... and i really do hope that we'll triumph in the competition. Haha, pardon the punt with words..brain's sort of going lame recently.
I went shopping for mooncakes with mommy after waking up in the evening. We walked through the entire Taka square, and she made me try what seem like the hundredth mooncake, and they all taste the same, or similar. It's only the packaging that entices me.. i personally preferred the Bakerzin collection especially the sweet potato flavor. It's got this creamy taste to it, doesn't quite feel like you're eating a mooncake, and it's pretty!.
In terms of flavor, and packing, i like Bakerzin, like i mentioned earlier...
followed by this rooster one that may phua endorsed for. It's this huge cookie jar in the shape of a rooster...but i didnt try their product. It's cute!
I had to walk through the entire exhibit 3 -4 times... there's 4 seasons' durian mooncakes, big china mooncakes which was supposed to be good.... haagen daz ice cream ones...etc..
Can't quite remember the rest, but East ocean's mooncake tasted pretty good..coz it wasn't too sweet..though packaging was horrible. Erm the mom bought the ugliest of the lot. (meaning east ocean) Coz she said what matters is the taste.. not how it looks. Boo!
Over the weekend, i consumed nearly a dozen of mini mooncakes made by beanie's mom.
They aren't too sweet, and she's rather generous with the yolks. (slurp slurp) Since i was rather tied up with com law and MAB test..eating seem like the best way to make myself feel better.
In case you go tsk tsk about the chrolestrol level with the yolks... this auntie at the mooncake place told me that yolks are good for the memory! Whopppee! but..somehow.. i guess im i've got some yolk defiency going on..coz my memory's horrible! Next in line would be to polish off the tiramisu mooncakes, compliments from beanie's mommy...then would be mommy's.
Im such a glutton huh?
The start of student week is approaching.. looking forward to it, it's gonna be lots of fun! (i hope so) Whee!

Bad SAM! Bad!
sleep! everyone is telling me that they're deprived of sleep!
yet it seems to me that no one is actually sleeping much...
makes u wonder...what everyone's doing, instead of sleeping.
Friday night was spent in school, instead of of Agacia's birthday party. The thought of it alone.. is bad enough. Think about it. Spending you friday nights in school is absolutely a No no.
Yet there's nothing i could do to avoid it.
It's either i have fun, and skip the submission for Commercial Law, or i stay in school, and attempt to finish up Commercial law.
Getting chased out of school is horrible, and staying up til the wee hours of morning, to find that you've yet to complete your assignment is worst! You panick, you push your limits, you doze off, and dunk yourself into the cold shower... yucks!
Horrible!
I finally gave up fighting my sleepy urge, and went to bed.....
Only to wake up discovering that you're not done with your assignment yet!
It's horrible.
Well i managed to hand in the stuff on time. BUt i assure you, it's anything but quality.
It seems like open house for school was yesterday. There's an open house bazaar in school.
Dumbest part of things like this, is that...the school never notifies us that there's a bazaar. There should be more publicity!!
I didn't know that there was a bazaar, until i stepped into school to submit my assignment. There i saw lots of pretty dangly earrings, homemade reversible bags, clay whistles, and bendy wires used to create stuff.
It's delightful to see a crowd of people, setting up stores, blocking up the designated place for assignment submission. and all the pretty array of wares that they have. I couldn't help peeking around. As usual, it's too much to resist the temptation of spending money on stuff that you dont need.
It's only when i took a peek in my wallet, that it dawned upon me that i've got no cash! alright, it wasn't no cash...it was like.. $14. It's good enough to survive in school for a few days, if there isn't a bazaar just round the corner. It's bad when the pair of earrings that you fancy cost $17, and the bag that you thought was cute cost $18. Damn! i could afford none.
What a way to save your money. =(
I ended up buying myself a little clay teddy, that's serves as a bracelet, or a bookmark, or whatever you fancy it to be.
Well it's cute and cheap. Just $3.
It didn't quite cure the itch that i had..but it kinda soothe the itch.
It's quite lame to know that the school's installed a spanky new SAM machine, for the convenience of the students, to pay for bills, and buy stamps and the many other things SAM can do.
If you ask me, i'll rather sacrifice SAM, for an ATM. It makes more sense, and afterall, money makes the world goes round....while SAM cant. humph!

swarmped
Tired. That sums up me for the past 2 weeks.
Marketing project, Triumph Project, Commercial law Assignment (due tmr),yet another MAB test that's approaching this tuesday, and no doubt i'll do badly again...
and there's ECONS test approaching soon....
There's also Students week.. which i forsee lots of fun, but lots of time involved..
Argh! it's a wonder that im still half sane, and alive.
Commercial Law assignment is due tomorrow, and im only half done with it, it's getting worrying
i know i shouldn't have procrastinated... it would have saved me lots of worries, and sleep.
Yes yes, eating com law, sleeping com law, and breathing com law shall be my priorities today. Except that i've still got Agacia's Birthday party to attend later!!
Speaking of which, i'd better find out how the others would be transporting themselves there...
i'll hitch along la..

roar!
i spent my entire monday sleeping! Sunday was sleep depriving! I spent my evening sitting at Sembawang Park feeding mosquitoes!
But the good thing was that, i discovered a method to clean off the horrible markings that vinyl coated bags always have! Whooppee!
So i got a rather clean shiny white handles for my Zara bag! Boy am i happy!
I've been coming up with quite abit of Earrings, and response has been pretty good so far....
Audrey suggested that i should dump them at IncubeBox, and sell them. But im still considering. ARgh!
It's so much more exciting to be coming up with stuff, than to study. I wouldnt mind doing a mosaic mirror, crocheting a bracelet, slicing and stitching up my clothes, and redoing my nails, and more earrings, poking the pig.... Well you get the idea, anything but studying.
I went hanging out with Selene earlier, and we had a good time whiffing perfume at Sasa, to kill time. It's fun...and i've more or less made up my mind about the next "scent" i'll like to get.
Secret Wish by Anna Sui, or
Eclat by Lanvin,
Both are pretty similar in scent, but one's got a prettier bottle, and i've got a $10 voucher for the other. What am i supposed to do? Argh! i hate deciding..... Bleh
Da was showing me this picture, which featured the Hilton sister spotting similar tops, except Paris's said "Team Jolie", and Nicky's said "Team Aniston". It's so cute....we're thinking about pulling the stunt too, as soon as we can lay our hands on one. Haha!
Im going on a online shopping spreee agian. All thanks to Da Bleh! Old navy, GoJane,and American Eagle.... Best of all.. i'm broke! Where's the sugar daddy gone?
Vavavoom!

Mambo Jumbo
It's post mambo, and my legs feels like logs!
Mambo's pretty fun today. I enjoy hanging out with EXCO for mambo..it's rather refreshing at times, and we always have a good time. Though this is actually our third time clubbing together, i think the chemistry is good between us. There's this very good mix of genre preference, and i think it's interesting! I had a good time sharing some mambo movements with the others, and
We all had fun bullying Adrian today. But oh well, at least he now knows a new and cute jap chick! haha
I've been a good girl today, waking up early, to meet up for the Triumph group project. It's been the first time in weeks, since i woke up early, and got to school on time, for something!
Such an achievement!!!!!
Too bad, my memory screwed up in the second part of my schedule. I thought i had a meeting with Andy, until adrian reminded me that it's supposed to be next week, not today. How silly of me!!!
Yeap, so i left school, and met up with my Boo boo! He brought me to Great World City, to watch Herbie! Herbie's so cute... it kinda inspires me to reconsider my dreamcar!
first there was the Beetle ( new ones), then i decided that it's impractical for me to maintain a shiny new car...so i settled for a cheap rusty old Mazda 121 as a "realistic dreamcar", then i juggled 121 with miata...can't quite decide which is nicer, and less costly... haha...and now there's "herbie" in the picture as well. Oh well.
If i've got the money, i'll get myself a nice shiny new pearly white beetle. It'll be nice and classic.
Oh well....it's all "what ifs" Haha.
Before we watched Herbie, i stopped by at the pet store that's located near the cinema to check out the guinea pigs! they're so so so so Adorable! There's the baby ones that's barely the size of my handphone, and there's 3 that are the size of a normal feather duster.
Comparing Pix!e to the feather duster pigs, pix!e's only the size of a huge toilet brush.
she's so small, as compared to those giants.
I haven't been skimping on her food alright, she's got a daily dosage of Vitamin C, daily serving of Pig pellet, all the cabbage that she wants, and hay, and even hamster food as treats! She's eating better than i am! Such a high maintainence piggie! Bah!
All i wanted, was for her to be the size of a small feather duster! Why isn't she growing?
-------------------------------------------------------------
I rushed back to school, after Herbie, and was alittle late for the meeting. EXCO meeting followed after, and we spoke about certain issues about the future, and i'll say that i'm rather relieved that things turned out fine, and that the distribution of responsibilities and roles was good. I was about to faint from hunger, by the time the meeting ended.
We went on to Sushi Tei at Holland Village for dinner, and it's yummy!
AFter dinnner, Zoe and I had a short debate on whether to, or not to go MAMBO, and after making quite a scene at the bus stop, we concluded with... a YES!
So there we were, and im now blessed with legs that feels like logs! Yes! Im dead tired, and i should be off to bed!
Oh my mood and outlook on life is picking up, and im glad that im more optimistic now! though...depression tends to set in alittle, whenever im alittle tired. I guess it's called cranky! Bleh!
Bye mambo! Hello exams!

oops. i was supposed to meet up with Jenice and Gloria today, but i seemed to have forgotten all about it. sigh....
Oh well, check out the following link for some fun and laughs
http://www.milbestlight.com/swf/game/game1.swf
The objective of the game, is for you to oogle as much as possible, at your buddy's very "hot" sister, within a minute. Well, i guess i make a bad ogler. But it's not my hobby to stare at a girl's boobs what! !$%#^ Well, Da makes a very good ogler, with 28 seconds left to spare! Too bad that she's not a guy, but i guess it comes in handy, when it comes to ogling at guys? BAH!

im in trouble..
Seriously, i dont know what's my problem, but i woke up at 12, to get dressed for school, being really proud of myself, for waking up on time, for the first time in weeks!!!
Being all dressed up, and about to leave home, it suddenly dawned upon me again, that MAB is supposed to be in the morning, not afternoon! If so, why do i have the impression that MAB is in the afternoon?? How dumb can i get??? Yet the dumbest part, would be to repeat the same mistake, over and over again. *frustrated*
I think my memory's seriously in deep deep trouble. I seem to be forgetting alot of important matters, and it's worrying. I do hope im not turning psychotic....
On the other hand, i don't seem to have much problem falling asleep, but waking up seem to be such a hassle everyday. There seem to be constant phonecalls coming in to harrass me, depriving me of my sleep!! Im serious about it!
On a lighter note, im now experimenting with paper lacquer, and it seem to be on the right track, except that i'll probably have to get some real lacquer, instead of using my nail polish. But experiment would have to wait. There's a whole lot of things, that requires my attention:
Marketing project,
my very pathetic MAB ( i gotta start taking out the notes to study, before it's too late), there's also Comm Law assignment, that i've not done yet,
and The triumph competition to plan about (but i've yet to submit the application form, and elaine's been constantly bugging me over the phone, calling me from 8.30am to 2.30) which is kinda of the main reason why i haven't been having proper rest.
I'm Sleep deprived, but somehow, for the past few days, there seem to be this whole conspiracy to depreive me from my much needed sleep!
There's the constant phonecalls, and i had commercial law on saturday morning, and i went on to meet up with Selene for a shopping session! Had to wake up at 10am for dim sum on Sunday, since i promised mommy that i'll go for it, and i was so sleepy, i could have slept standing up. On the way over to grandad's house, i fell asleep in the car, despite being squished in a weird manner, (dim sum was with my aunt and cousins as well...so 5 of us squished together in the back to visit grampa) i managed to sleep my way there alright! haha
I went home, and played Majong the rest of my sunday with Christopher, Esther, Joanne, Jason, and a girl named Kat, that i've never met before. YEah...so much for sleeping. Naturally, i was stonned throughout the entire game, but it was fun while it lasted.
Meeting up with the gang, kinda made me miss going to Mambo. I might want to go this wednesday, if im not feeling too tired. After all, it'll be closing for renovations soon, and the next time that i'll be able to step into the place, it'll prolly be after exams, when it's "beautified"
Was supposed to meet up with the group mates yesterday, to discuss Marketing project, but it's been postponed at the very last min. I was already out of the house, and having lunch at Marina Sq with beanie... We went to try Carl's Junior. It's this expensive Fast Food joint. The burgers are pretty nice, though slightly pricier than Burger King. It's a nice stuffing experience, and i went shopping around (since proj is cancelled), after beanie went off for work. and bought stuff again.
I should refrain myself from stepping near the parameters of town and shopping malls! It's such a dangerous place! Money gets lost withou much effort!
----------------------------------------------------------
There's so much meeting up to do, even though boo boo's busy working and not with me. I need a time managment expert to help me manage my life soon, before i bonker off. Grrr!
I is sleepy, but i need to send the dumb triumph application form to Jalan Perminpim, and i might wanna meet up with Jenice and Gloria, since i haven't seen them for at least a year. Last time i remember seeing them, was last sem before exams. so it must have been at least 6 mths or so already?
Look, it's true that i'm a busy bummerina. I'm not doing anything in particular, but i've still got a whole bunch of important task waiting for me, and yet im still busy doing my mundane routine. How could i possibly survive??
Oh, Does anyone knows how to add music into their blogs? What must i do?

Sniff! sniff!
I'm Sick..... Argh!
there's *cough cough* and *sniff sniff* and slight fever, together with sore throat.
No wonder i've been feeling sleepy and lethargic for the past few days!
I spend my whole day sleeping today, hoping that i'll recover soon...
Apparently sleeping, ain't doing much miracles. Bah!
Im hooked onto those drama serials again.... first there's the korean "da chang jing", and there's the old old...version of Legends of the Condor heroes...whatever.... So i've been spending alot of my free time, staring into the pictue box. unhealthy eh, i reackon that I've been watching more tellly recently, than what i've been watching for the past one year at home. haha...'.
Bad for eyes!
Macadamia nut icecream craving!
But boo boo says im sick... no ice cream for me <=(
Ooohhh Quidan looks interesting! Too bad, that circus no longer have animals performing anymore! Talking about animals, i chanced upon Mphosis store the other day, and so happened to pick up this neck warmer made from fur.
It's so soft, and very cute.....until i saw the price tag. It says rabbit Fur!!!!!
It's so disgusting! i never quite understood why people are willing to kill animals just to beautify themselves. Imagine someone stealing your puppy, or kitty kat, piggie or bunny, just to make a fur stole, or neck warmer, or coat or something!
It's absolutely unthinkable!
Argh!

Apparently sleeping, ain't doing much miracles. Bah!
Im hooked onto those drama serials again.... first there's the korean "da chang jing", and there's the old old...version of Legends of the Condor heroes...whatever.... So i've been spending alot of my free time, staring into the pictue box. unhealthy eh, i reackon that I've been watching more tellly recently, than what i've been watching for the past one year at home. haha...'.
Bad for eyes!
Macadamia nut icecream craving!
But boo boo says im sick... no ice cream for me <=(
Ooohhh Quidan looks interesting! Too bad, that circus no longer have animals performing anymore! Talking about animals, i chanced upon Mphosis store the other day, and so happened to pick up this neck warmer made from fur.
It's so soft, and very cute.....until i saw the price tag. It says rabbit Fur!!!!!
It's so disgusting! i never quite understood why people are willing to kill animals just to beautify themselves. Imagine someone stealing your puppy, or kitty kat, piggie or bunny, just to make a fur stole, or neck warmer, or coat or something!
It's absolutely unthinkable!
Argh!

eventful week!
This entire week has been a blur of events.... with our Nerd-tional Parade on tuesday, fine dining at Equinox on Thursday, and my first visit to The Kranji Turf Club today! It's such an eventful week! Nerdtional Parade was a success, and though there's little hiccups in between, i'll still stick to my statement, that it's been a successful event! Considering the fact that it's our first attempt in organising a school bash since becoming EXCO.
Beanie's dad turned 60 on Thursday, and so we had a dinner celebration at Equinox, where we have Beanie's god sis and her husband, his aunt, cousins and their wives, and there's me, beanie, Bernard, and not forgetting.. beanie's mommy!
Ambience is good, but the menu seemed fond of using unusual words to describe their food. Words like Cream of Salsify, Degustation, Chantilly, and Beef cheeks.
I was rather amused with the restaurant's choice of words. Perharps, they thought it would be classier to use pretty words?
Beef cheeks were actually the meat of the cow, that's rather near the tummy. The kind chinese restaurants uses for stew beef. Jokingly, Beanie's cousin said it's either the cheeks of the cow, or the butt cheeks. Whichever it is.
I had lots of fun that night, and it was my first time meeting Boo's relatives. It's scary, but they are a funny bunch, so i just kept laughing the entire night.
I had Sauteed Scallops for starters, Supreme chicken soup and Foie Gras next, and alittle of beanie's cream of salsify, which is actually some crayfish broth with crayfish meat served on a wooden chopstick. (told you they like fancy names for their dishes, it could have just be cream of crayfish, or crayfish chowder. But no.... Equinox must use fancy names to keep up with their prestige-ness) I had the Ribeye beef and the cheeks, followed by the Strawberry soup for dessert, and i helped along with the additional orders of a Chocolate Fantasy.
Comprising of various forms of chocolates. There's the white chocolate, according to beanie's cousin, the white chocs was shaped like"madonna's conical bra", then there was this eggy thingie that came in 2 glasses, with chocolate crunchie balls sprinkled on top of it. (That's my favourite!) There's the bitter mousse ( i dreaded it), and other stuff that i didn't try..
It was very much what the menu had described....chocolate fantasy. I think, if you eat it all by yourself, im sure you'll end up being diabetic for life. Oh there was complimentary red wine to go with all that food, and a really mini mango cake, the size of my palm, was given as a gesture of good will.
After being very bloated and done with dinner, we actually went on to the hotel room to cut the cakes. It's this Tiramisu cake from Pregos, it's good, but it melts really really fast.
And the funniest part of it, was to see the entire cake, being decorated with 60 candles! The flaming cake seriously had a hard time staying solid while everyone was snapping and posing for the camera. By the time it was cut and served..i was just eatting this puddle of tiramisu shake!
We had this cute little surprise sitting on the bed, when we entered the room. Little Shanice was being smuggled into the hotel as a surprise, since little kids under the age of 12, wasn't allowed to be brought into the restaurant. So Sheila actually arranged for the little cutie to be brought to the hotel room, after dinner! Such a pleasant surprise!
Seems to me, everytime i see her, she's got some new tricks available, for show and tell. This time, she seemed to have mastered the art of calling "gong gong" and "ma"!
Walked alittle, and said "Bye!", and could also manage a flying kiss. Her baby antics are So cute!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I went to the Turf club for the first time in 22 years today. It's fun, and i had a good time hollering for the horsey that i was cheering for. My choice of horses to support, has alot to do with how they are being dressed, and the names that they were given. Like Straight Flash, Royal Jade, Ocean Dancer and so on.. You get what i mean... hahah!
I like the feel of adrenaline when the horses are about to reach the finishing line, where we have everyone hollering for the horse that they've betted on. Oh Beanie's dad managed to win $24 in his last bet. It's fun, but i probably wouldn't spend money going there. First there's the carpark fee, then came the human entrance fee... Just to see horses scrambling around. The waiting time during the interval, is longer than the amount of time spent on watching horses running.
Time to go, Commercial Law awaits me in the morning!

The aunt, the pig, and my coming test.
Damn Dengue! My aunt's down with Dengue Fever, and from the observer's point of view, it's a horrible thing to suffer from. She's pale, not eating, nauseous, and suffering for days!
There's nothing i could do to make her feel any better, except to encourage her eat more, so that she'll be able to strengthen her system within.
Hurts to see her going through this, after all, she's the only aunt that that matters to me. As the remaining aunts, are from dad's side, and they could hardly bother if i were dead or alive. The number of times we meet a year, could be counted just using one hand.
While my "ah yee" as my family would fondly address her, is different. Being Mommy's only sister, she's a motherly figure to mommy, sis and i. When we were younger, we'll bunk over at ah yee's place, when mommy and daddy are overseas.
I recall telling mommy that ah yee's cooking exceeds the maid's and mommy's cooking, and we'll always make the maid imitate her cooking after returning home. Somehow, the magic touch wasn't there. Yeah yeah, sis and i were bad little picky eaters.
Somehow, ah yee and mommy would meet up nearly every Saturday(since young til now), and god knows where they'll disappear to, be it to visit grandpa, for line dancing, flag day.. and many whatnots. Haha.
Makes me wonder how the two of them managed to stay so close through out the years, (looking at da and i...we either are really close and happy, giggling at silly stuff, or we'll try to kill each other over idiotic stuff.)
Guess u'll mellow down in years to come... (hopefully, haha)
Oh well, waiting for ah yee to recover soon, so we could meet up for the planned Dim sum meeting soon!! (im not a glutton, but the last time we had dim sum together, was on mother's day!)
Backtracking to the day before... i was changing pix!e's cage, and the naughty little thing actually ran over to my laptop, and nipped on it! (i placed it on the floor to check out some stuff, and changing her home's beddings- im a multitasker! haha!)
I was mortified...! Luckily, the joybook's still scratch free, and i guess the naughty thing didn't munch on too hard. *phew*
But poor little itchy mouth ended up with 2 bleeding toes, when i tried trimming her nails soon after.
She fidgeted, and i ended up chopping off part of her toes. =( she bled quite alot, and i freaked out. Still, the bleeding didn't deter me from trimming on. Haha. Long nails makes walking difficult. So it's only natural that i groom the pig ma. Besides, if i were to bring her to the groomer, i wouldnt be able to see if they chopped off all her toes or not. (im looking on the grim side). I figured that, since i wasn't able to hold her still, all the more, the groomers wouldn't be able to do a good job. (though they're actually doing it for a living, but i refuse to trust them!)
I tried to make up for the bleeding, by feeding her with more yummilicious food, you know, to replenish for the lost blood. Ialso tried to stop the bleeding by applying pressure on her toes. Only to have a really irritated pig nipping me on the finger. I guess i kinda over reacted on her bleeding toe. Sigh.
That dumb pig!
Mommy says pix!e's just like me. Argh! Cause i woke up to find her "home" all messed up, when i remembered cleaning it up her home before going to bed. Oh yeah. Im messy, but i don't shit and pee over my food do i? The pig's dumber than me! Ha! Ha!
And i Cuter than her! *wishful thinking on my part*
Tomorrow's gonna be a horrible day. there's magazine distribution to look into, assisting Zoe with her bash ticketing, and the collection of outfits for Pageant at P.O.A, Jean Perrie, and Osmose. It'll be good, to borrow "Flash's" superpower tomorrow.
I'm so dead about MAB ( Managment accounting) Which idiot invented accounting? It's such a complicating and torturous subject. My brain's definitely not created to absorb accounting. It's horrible! should i sit for the test on tue or not?? Dilema!

New hair color!
Yay! I went back to Blitz at Holland V to dress up my hair!
It's currently a collection of Blonde, Red, Copper, and my base color of Blackcurrent.
I like it, i like it! Going back to Blitz seem to remind me alot of my days in Design school, where my hair's usually funky.
Being in Business school, i seem to have toned down my style of dressing, my hair styles, colors and even behaviour etc. I feel like just another monotonous commoner. I no longer stand out, feel proud and special about myself. Instead, i feel like im just another typical boring, really boring business student. The modules that i'm studying doesn't seem to stimulate my creative juices either.
The fact that i'm going back to Temasek Poly tomorrow for SIM's sport's day, gives me this little thrill! I'll be stepping back to the a common ground, where creative, funs, sweat, and efforts were spent in creating stuff, be it a retail store concept, or some wearble pieces made from my very lousy sewing, or even to hang around in the stuffy workshop experiementing with tie dyes, crocheting, screen print. Those WERE the days. I'll give anything, just to go back there, just relieve my memories all over again.
I miss the friends that i've made there, i miss the food there, and i miss being young all over again. Reminiscing these memories, just leave me with this special smile, and Tp will always have this special place. somewhere deep in my heart. It's where the lecturers truly care, unlike what we're experiencing now. I seriously doubt if the lecturers in SIM even know one name from the lecture group. It's sad and pathetic.
A far cry from what i was so used to...

Face lift!
Look! It's the new face lift of the season. It's the Autumn/Fall look. Hahah...
It took me hours to figure out why my link isn't working, and which is the right color for my tag Board. Yes tag board is still looking horrible, but there's nothing much i can do about the color combi.
Well while blogging, im scratching all over. Yes, im peeling. All over..from my cheeks, to nose, to my chest. I slathered all kinds of shit onto my skin. From mango moisturiser from the body shop, to clinique's dramatically moisturising, to Clinique's after sun clamant, to body scrub to reduce itchiness....and back to mango lotion. Haha... desperate itchiness, calls for desperate measures.
Scratching is bad, coz it looks obscene. I might be mistaken for suffering from cooties! And im scratching at places that would cause heads to turn, and aunties to shake their heads with disapproval.
Nothing i could do, and i can't bear with the itch!
I went over to Ikea and Anchorpoint for dinner, and a little round of stroll. Ooh i wanted to buy the basket for storage, so i could dump all my jeans and pants into it. Mommy's forever complaining about my pile of clothes. So wicker basket will be a good way to hide up the mess. *smiles*
I also saw really cute bedlinens, curtains, layout...and everytime i pay Ikea a visit, i have this huge urge to redecorate my room! I want to add more stars to the wall, change the bed, the wardrobe, the floor tiles, a mosaic tiled kitchen or toilet and many more!
While i was at Ikea, i passed by Guardian's and i got mommy a box of L'oreal Feria Hair dye. As usual, i chose the color, Blackcurrent. Paid for it, and went home.
Played Hair colorist for the night, and i dyed mommy's head blackcurrent. Many years passed, and i still think it's a good color. It's not too loud, and not too subtle, I guess the name's got something to do with the appeal that it's exercised on me though.
So happened that i couldn't resist the color..and decided to do mine too... i randomly picked certain spots to color, but ended up spreading the dye all over the head.
But hey! It turned out pretty nice. I look healthier instantly. The previous copper color made me look like i was sick, as im waaay too pale to stomach "copper". Darkening me head seem to solve my "sickness" instantly.
Yummy!
I am so Proud of my work, but unfortunately, i've got yet another appointment with the hairstylist tomorrow.
So i've only got 1 day to show off my work of art, before it becomes someone else's work again.
Boo. Lookat it in another way.. if the color job turns out bad, at least i have the hands of an expert to rescue my short locks. But sucky, when it turns out fine and pretty.
Bah!
Bash tickets are out, and the RUmagazine is due to be printed and delivered this friday. Im so excited about it!
If only i could be as excited about my coming Management Accounting and Business Test that's due on tuesday. Sigh. That's life i suppose...
Ooh... and my poor little injured toe resembles a bulbasaraus. It's gross and disgusting. I guess it's disfigured for life. Wearing pretty shoes won't comfort the poor little toe anymore. Boo! poor toe...

Post initiation Day Chalet...
Tired, hungry, burnt skin, aching muscles, and a poor bleeding toe sums up end of the event.
Had my lunch/dinner after stepping out of Sentosa at 5pm, and i kinda fell asleep on the cab on my way home. Lugging my huge "5days 4 night" bag(as usual, i overpacked again) , my beach bag, and the radio that was never used, my body was screaming exhaustion.
Exhaustion from the load that i brought along with me, and from the lack of sleep the night before. The activities planned for us, was a success, as the freshies are already bonding.
(or at least i think they're bonding).
From treasure hunt to drinking/forfeiting games session, to telematch by the beach, and a game of Captain's ball in the pool kinda sums up our very exhaustive schedule.
Chilling out by the poolside, was the finale. and i couldn't figure out if it was the pool and captain's ball, or the telematch by the beach, that resulted in the sun burn.
Falling asleep, the minute i reached home, i couldn't care about cleaning up and unpacking. I barely had the energy to mutter a "hello mommy...look at my new tan"before stumbling onto my comfy little bed after shedding off my soiled clothes.
Waking up only to the sound of telly blasting (mommy and sis are currently hooked onto some old Legend of the Condor Hero VCDs), dry contact lens stuck to the balls of my eye, and a very oily but sore face. Aching muscles added onto the list, once i started stretching around.
Eating dinner at 1am in the morning, Im feeling pathetic. I'll update a more joyous version of The initiation day, once i get sufficient rest. Meanwhile, im off to sleep...and i guess i should moisturise myself alittle to help with the burns. There's this sneaky feeling that the heat rash is spreading......
...zzZZzz..

blind blind blind
There i go again, unremorsefully... unshamely spending money again! I've just gotten myself a new pair of delicous purplish pink specs that I couldn't resist indulging in.
Besides, it isn't healthy to be wearing contact lens forever. So..... yup yup. 80 bucks for plastic speckies.
When the optician did a eye check for me, *horrors of horrors!* i found out that im blinder by a hundred degrees! 250 deg on each eye, to a 350! it's horrible!
Makes me wonder how i've survived, now feeling so blind. I'll probably have to blow another 100 bucks for a spanky new pair of contact lens as well, considering the fact that my current ones are a hundred degress backdated. I feel ancient. Boo!
I guess, i'll have to start saving for lasik soon..don't really fancy walking around with glasses as thick as milk bottles by the time im 30 years old.
Im pretty much being entertained by this crocheting craze, spending most of my free time, doing crochet work, unravelling it frequently ( as i'm unhappy with my workmanship, and choice of design) , crochet, unravelling again..im such a perfectionist in my wn little way.... haha.
After many hours of hard toiling labour.... i realised that i haven't advanced much, and i'm hoping to finish up with something really soon.
Judging at the decaying/fraying tangles of yarn...i seriously doubt i'll be able to complete anything within the next one month.
Incase you're really thinking that im some kind of a crochet retard, let me reassure you that i've actually crocheted a black raffia bag sometime ago..it's just that the design/pattern that i'm dealing with currently, requires alot more skill and patience on my part.
Driving lessons officially commerce on tue again, after a month of self declared "term break".
Oh dear, i do hope that i'll be able to remember how to park the car on Tuesday...
Seriously doubt that i'll be able to go for the exams by September, forseeing many more delays to come.
Besides, it isn't healthy to be wearing contact lens forever. So..... yup yup. 80 bucks for plastic speckies.
When the optician did a eye check for me, *horrors of horrors!* i found out that im blinder by a hundred degrees! 250 deg on each eye, to a 350! it's horrible!
Makes me wonder how i've survived, now feeling so blind. I'll probably have to blow another 100 bucks for a spanky new pair of contact lens as well, considering the fact that my current ones are a hundred degress backdated. I feel ancient. Boo!
I guess, i'll have to start saving for lasik soon..don't really fancy walking around with glasses as thick as milk bottles by the time im 30 years old.

i love my friends
I've been bugged by at least 3 people as to why haven't i been blogging for a really long time, therefore it's only right that i fill in the missing blanks.
I haven't exactly disappeared, but like what my previous entries suggested, im currently going through a rather difficult stage of my life, and im trying hard to get out of it.
Everything seems like it couldn't possibly get any darker, so i'll dare say that things would hopefully start getting better. Having already confided to those who cares and mattered to me, about my issues and my concerns, I am already feeling much better. Everyone assured me that im not alone, and it's good to know that i've still got friends around to help me tide over difficult times.
Today, I went off to OCBC building to have dinner at this place known as the "Executive's Club", to celebrate Shanice's 1st birthday. Shanice is beanie's "god niece" erm., since technically, she's "god granddaughter" to beanie's dad. Am i right? This is getting confusing. I've only met her thrice personally, and i'd say that she's looking cute and cuddly, though grumpy and threatening to cry at times.
Cute little Shanice somewhat reminded me of Maggie Simpson, when she sucks her pacifier. Though exterior wise, she's like this live japanese baby doll, Fair skinned and chubby cheeks.
Rather playful, but tantrums aplenty. i doubt i'll want my daughter to behave like her. Somewhat, i seem to think that her parent's aren't educating her the right way. Like there was this architectural kind of lamp that's in a circular/ballish shape. She pointed at it, being facinated like all kids, and all her dad could say was.... "circle!"
Technically speaking, wouldn't it be more logical, and politically right to educate your child by telling them it's a light?
Initially, I'm rather surprised to find out that she hasn't learnt to walk, or talk properly yet. Rather than to communicate with her in baby talk, After the dinner, i'm able to conclude that her speech and motor development is very much hindered by inexperienced parenting.
Her mom thinks that she's not ready to try to feed herself, and she isn't ready to walk on her own. They don't seem too worried about her not being able to mutter simple words like mama, papa, and mum mum. Being totally happy with her incoherant mutterings.
I don't doubt Shanice's capability to walk or talk, as she does react rather intelligently when we talk and play with her. you'll never learn to walk, if you're afraid to fall - With her parents being obsessed with her not falling, or to think that she's not ready to play with her own food, it's not surprising that she's not learnt to walk or to do things herself.
Seriously. i've seen enough counsins, and babies to know better. Not that im a mommy myself, but it doesn't take an idiot to know about child development.There's my brother for instance, and all the text available to you about child psychology, and development. You learn all that in basic Home Economics in school. Seriously, theory in child development is child's play to most.
I couldn't help but disapproving, but could only eat my dinner in objection. Food's ok, and we're like the only people in the restaurants, other than the service people.
Likes the steamed prawns best. yum!
I Didn't feel like going to Mambo today, and i already told Crix earlier that i'm too tired to actually be doing the weekly routine. Though assuring him that i'll join them again, once i feel that im ready and settled with my new life.
What new life? You must be wondering. New life to me would be the adjustments that i've gotta get used to, with school work, timetable, council activities, and spending time with baby, and personal time for myself.
I'm probably the world's worst planned person. I'm horrible at juggling my time properly. My life can't be screwed any further. It's horrible. Which explains for the depression phase that im currently stuck in.
Not to worry about me, for the fact that im actually admitting my problems, it kinda show that im working to overcome problems.
To step out of my dark little shell, and be brave. Main piorities would be to survive through this semester, and the many more to come, and hopefully graduate soon. ( It's such a long way to go, my future's looking pretty bleak and misty. )
Harry Potter is depressing too, with Dumbledore dead, and i've always know that Snape would turn out to be such a traitor!
Having no intentions to return to Hogwarts with all that happened, i feel that Harry's growing up way too soon. What started out as harmless children's fantasty reading materials, somehow turned into really dark story contents. Depressiing. Whatever happened to stories that ends with "and they live happily ever after"?
Enough of Harry Potter, but there's pressing issues like.....
Me being damn broke!
I can't believe that i acutally overspent til im left with a pitiful amount in my bank. If it wasn't for the fact that i went to withdraw money earlier, i wouldn't have realised that i've actually have been overshopping with my masters or nets.
Apparently my grades aren't the only thing i ought to pioritise. I should just stop splurging.
I tried doing my own little maths in shopping terms...
and this is what i've recalled for the last 2 weeks....
1)pet supplies $80 and abv
2)new linen pants slightly abv $30
3)Spanish cape $25
4)a few new tops $80
5)my hair cut @ blitz $40
6)food
i can't quite recall what other stuff i've spent on.
But im in such deep shit. So So broke.
Hope mommy would reimburse me with the pet supplies, coz i really dread eating into my other saving accounts. Bleh.
Im such a hopeless person, when it comes to saving. Drastic suggestions to curb spending, anyone?

blogging. Yawn
yawn... Blogging seemed to have lost it's flavour. I can't seem to bother to blog anymore, and i seem to have lost the time to blog. Must have been all that flurry of activities that i'm stuck with. Ya know, the school bash preparations , school work itself, all that interviews that the EXCO have to sit through, and recruitment booth and initiation day. Boy! im totally exhausted.
Exhaustion. I mean the lost of energy and enthusiasium to do anything. All my favourite activities and past time seem tasteless suddenly. Mambo doesn't appeal to me anymore, shopping seem meaningless, as for my highly anticipated online shopping... tsk..well browsing is more mundane, than exciting. Even if i did a search for a particular item that i wanted..my main problem at the moment, is my mind's a total blank. I've got no idea what i wanted.
I mean, i know what i want, and i've gotten them already. There seem a point whereby, there is seriously nothing for me to get. I bidded for the GoJane spanish cape, and Tada... i got it. Opened the package, stared at it and go...that's it? So much for anticipation.
Next on my list, would be the Old Navy Linen clutch bag. I've got so many of the same item in my watch list, that there couldn't possibly be anymore that i haven't seen. It's only a matter of time, before i'm gonna bid for it, (ya know, waiting for the very last min, before bidding on it, to avoid any competition.) Life's boring.
I probably need new, interesting stuff to do, before i waste my life away. Believe me, i probably would be more productive, revising my work, rather than to sit in front of my joybook, looking like a bloppy lump of thankless creature. But i do find it necessary to make an effort to place an entry, occassionally. Blah! contradicting isn't it?
Recruitment for Student Council, isn't as successful as i've envisioned it to be. Bash, seem to be a really rush affair, considering that we've got less than a month to prepare! Argh! Not exactly a failure, but it's getting rather depressing for me. Depressed that things aren't the way i envisioned, and it ain't a bed of roses, but i'll have to admit, that im inefficient alright!
I went over to the Candy Empire today, and spent a total of $10 bucks on sweets. Haha, speaking of sweet tooth, or a reprived childhood. I bought my usual Joosters, and there's this candy dust packaged in a compact powder kind of case. It's pink and cute. There's this other sweet, which is packaged as a fire extinguisher. It's supposed to squirt water, once im done with the candy.
Yup, 3 items for 10 bucks. I wonder why i bought them, though i must admit that i bought the compact candy dust for the box, and the fire extinguisher for the squirt. The joosters coz it's yummy. Sigh.. yes..Candy Empire is a really expensive and high class "mama store".
Actually, to think of it, (now that my mouth's stuffed with white chocolate, and my sugar level just went up), i missed the old "Candy Express" that used to be situated at the Basement of Wisma. They had this huge assortement of marshmellows, Lollis, the various sizes and assortments of Jawbreakers, and the sugar crystals on a stick. Somehow, business went bust i think, and they disappeared. It was my very own "Willy Wonka's factory". All the pretty sweets that any child could ever dream of, was found in there!
Candy Express, does it ring a bell to you?
Speaking of candies, i really fancied the candy store over at the Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia. Those fabulous hand made candies are to die for, and it's been my dream to set up a store in here. Those candies are delicious, and pretty! The thought of it cheers me up.
It's like those sweet shops in that's being described in Enid Blyton's stories. Noddy, or whatever brownie town, fairyland and all. Hmmm Simply magical!
