marking's no fun when you cant include your own comments. some of them seriously deserved a "its WRONG, pay attention when i'm going through corrections" or a "writing so small that i cant even read it doesnt make it neat" or a "are you lazy, blind, or just stupid enough to think i wouldnt notice that you left a whole page blank?" i also did some typing today. so see, i'm actually doing work!

in the afternoon i went out with my dear protector jiekai for astons and icecream chefs. he was really gentlemanly and great company! i'm glad i have such a nice east buddy.


my vj uniform is calling out to be ironed.

end of the break

i was really surprised it happened so fast, two days instead of the month/week/till the end of the weekend. and even more surprised at the decision but hey i'm not complaining. i know half the world wants to kill me right now but i'm following my heart on this one. it wasnt easy for me too considering the amount of brainwashing i had done in that short time. but i just cant throw away everything we had just like that. so that, plus during the little bit of praying i did ytd afternoon, i prayed either for it to work out or for me to get over him, whatever God's decision was. okay i feel so stupid even typing this out. but i am really thankful of course. we're gonna make it work together this time.

i didnt go for the og outing coz mummy insisted i had to go for novena since i missed quite a few weeks. then we went to pick up jerome, and since there was no place in unclegerald's car i had to go with them for some aunty's mass, alone! its horrible enough having weird old aunties hugging and kissing you (no indian aunties dont kiss, they sniff!) and talking to you in indian languages you dont understand till they finally ask if you know who they are, and you smile awkwardly and shake your head. its worse when there are no siblings or cousins to escape somewhere else with or to talk to so you wont seem so free and available for aunty attacks! so anyway i attended two masses and one novena and didnt even get to spend much time with the cousins. i'm such an angel.

waking up for 8.45am mass is not good, especially after not enough sleep. after that all sixteen of us went for breakfast at chaichee. delicious! but we came home to naggings about the room and now all of us are irritable and fighting with her. we need sleep!

we decided to meet at my house instead so shong came from work and richboy jessie cabbed from his house in novena. jessie had never been in my house before! he's sent me home loads of times and my parents him pretty well but he's never stepped inside, so weird! i wasnt a very good host coz there were no drinks (shong drank milo), only one xbox controller, nth to watch except ice age 2 which was watched with lousy subtitles and a really low volume since brandon was having tuition. but it was really great seeing jessie and shong after so long, and they like each other! :) such a sense of satisfaction.

he thinks he can pull off the smouldering eyes look
trying to make jessie smile

two of my bestfriends

after that jessie went to meet his friend at bayshore. being the egotistical dong he is, he refused to let my mum give him a lift, then got lost and cabbed again. shong and i went to bugis for class outing where instead of steamboat we ate at some japanese place. i was pretty sceptical about japanese pasta but gosh it was really good! we walked around and had desert at this chinese-y but somehow damn popular place in liang seah street called ah chew's smth. we used to joke about the ah chew hotel there, thinking it must be a really cmi place if it was named after ah chew. we didnt know ah chew was really a famous guy! the mango pomelo sago was heavenly, nice big chunks of sweet mango, so the wait was totally worth it.
another highlight was that shong and i decided to wear heels. i havent worn heels very much in the past one and a half years and when i do they're really short so 2.5 inches was already such an achievement for me. it was actually nice! being not-so-short and talking to shong on almost the same level and bending down to give hugs for a change. i'm sure i'll get used to the uncomfortableness so for the moment, its heel-shopping time!
s33 at bugis!

N-T-U
shong and i also got married, with LL necklaces. we had a ring bearer marcus and photographer mervin who took a picture of us with "bridal concept" in the background. they were so disturbed. anyway it was great to see everyone and catch up and hear the ns boys talk about nothing else but ns and and just hang out as a class again.
aww

okay so that was shitty

i guess i saw it coming but that didnt make it any easier. i must have sounded like an absolute baby. i know its not the end but it feels like it dammit. it kinda sucks that its happening at a time i need it not to happen the most. what hurts was that he knew the problem and still pretended, so for dunno how long its just been fake. and its just reminding me of my turn some time back. i refused to listen to people at that time, i knew i could make it work and return to what it used to be. and it did. but i dont know if he'll do the same.

so of course i turned to my friends. i had a conference call with jessie and shong who didnt even know each other but talked for like more than two hours. most of the time it was about other random stuff but it helped me feel alot better. they also gave me some advice that, although it doesnt seem like it, i really appreciate and am thinking about. also thanks to shanker for all the smses and being there. i havent been close to jessie in some time and havent known shanks for very long and it felt really good knowing they were there for me. and of course my LL, always by my side. i'm so blessed to have friends like you guys.

so i'm not a mess anymore :) we have a class outing later and i'm gna meet shong earlier, after her work. and hopefully, if he's not too exhausted from captain's ball, jessie too. hahas retarded little bro plan. so exciting!

i'm such a wonderful sister

which dong goes for O levels without her ID? i woke up to a msg from her asking me to bring it to her school for her coz she had oral. i slacked the morning away and finally dragged myself down to pass it to her. then i went to cold storage coz i felt like eating random stuff for lunch. some ham thing, a can of potato and spinach soup (tastes a hell lot better than it sounds), cheese and a big bottle of kickapoo. so my lunch ended up costing like $12, not good for someone so broke.

i slacked the rest of the day till first shong then pravin called. i was lying on the bed talking to them and kinda slept of after that, till night when it was almost dinner. chuen chuen chicken rice! as usual i had to have another plate but its not my fault, it was good! pravin went to the gym with his friend and worked out too much. he seriously doesnt need any more muscles, soon he'll just be this rock. we're supposed to go out on friday but i doubt it'll work since his school finishes at 5 and he has tkd at 8 and i'm supposed to have class outing at 7. sat plans arent gna work either since he has anusha's birthday and i have og outing. tmr tentative plans for ttsh ppl seoul garden.

bran didnt help me get my sml since he had no money. he offered me his but i dont like it so i dunno. the michael jackson tribute thing is getting boring, they keep playing and playing it! gotta find smth more exciting to do.

meeting kc ppl after a long time

the grounding meant i missed out on alot but finally i got to see them again! this time was nic chua, beins, cali and cheryl. we met at vivo, ate at this place called superdog which seriously had food portions that were too small, and then shopped. i didnt but anything although i was forced to try clothes.

i know t-shirts are boring but they're comfortable and my attire of choice! i'd wear t-shirts every day if i could. not that i dont like dresses or skirts or nice tops but i have to be in the mood to shop for them, and today i was in a totally t-shirt mood. needless to say i wasnt gna get any of those shopping with kc ppl, so all i spent in today was food. ben&jerry's and fishballs and otah.

being at vivo suddenly reminded me of pravin coz for some reason we went there quite a few times. on his birthday, the day before we got together, when we ate at carl's junior and i finished my burger faster than him. and another time when we were supposed to be a secret from our families and were eating at haagen daz when his uncle msged "how's the icecream?" and my one and only trip to the gym. i miss those days.

then we went to nic chua's house and had dinner, there was such a spread and the food was delicious! and she eats food like that every day! i dont get along with the dog. i dont care if its a puppy and its really small and friendly, i dont trust anything with teeth. we played guitar heroes which i absolutely suck at! i couldnt play anything more than easy with the guitar, and at first i couldnt even do easy with the drums. 50% for beginner! but later i could do one at easy, such an accomplishment! nic chua's sister said diane sucks at it too, so maybe it runs in the blood. anyway i'm so inspired coz its so fun, maybe i shall agree to pool money with bran to get it. but after i go to uni i wont be able to play it, so will it be a waste of money? i'm so broke anw since my timesheet thing is still not settled. argh whats so difficult abt a damn signature? we also played abit of wii sports which is really fun too and my arm is still aching though i only played one game. i need exercise!

HUSHNOM <3

feels like kc open house or the first day in s43 or smth when i feel like omg i'm entering X yrs of hell and then i have an experience tt totally changes the way i look at things and i'm like omg my life rocks! :)

screw the chinese, i'm definitely gonna learn it but i'll survive somehow. the camp, my group, everything was awesome! they must have put in so much effort into everything. alot of seniors were involved in the planning, mark said the ratio was 1:1 which is crazy la. but now i can understand, i'd also wanna come back and be involved. it was the coolest camp ever!

so i left early and ended up not taking my btt coz i got the day wrong and not meeting pravin coz he was sick. hands down most unsuccessful btts goes to me! on saturday night at the usual family gathering the older cousins (gabriel and above) went to 7-11 to get our drinks (or in the case of gabriel mango juice) and sat at the park connector to talk. on sunday diane and i got new phones, i got a samsung star. i didnt wanna admit it but i actually didnt wanna get a too ex phone in case i lost it again. i dont like losing phones, its like this curse on me, seriously! then the cousins met up again but this time with matt and jerome and unclejeff to watch transformers. megan fox is not that hot! bran sitting next to me going on and on throughout the show about her and i was thinking why dont i see it? anw i was surprised i didnt get a headache from all the robot bashing so it was okay la. but we have to have another older cousins only outing soon. who's gonna watch hannah montana with me?

i resolved to stay home ytd to be available to the O level siblings who were on youth day holiday, but i didnt do any helping and it looked like they didnt do much studying either, so besides lunch at auntyjanet's it was pretty much a wasted day. out with kc ppl in awhile!
