june's coming to an end soon. another month more and we'll be starting uni! how terrifying--or exciting, i can't decide. probably both? ever get the feeling that you've got so much to do and so little time, when you actually have nothing to do at all? like you have these few things to do on certain days and the rest of your days are spent doing nothing but then suddenly you discover you have other things to do and they all fall on the same days you already have stuff on so you can't do all these other things? what a mouthful. anw my point is, we have to understand that sometimes when people are unable to make time for us, it doesn't necessarily mean that we are not important in their lives, or that they can't be bothered to take time off to be with us, or that they'd rather stay at home and do nothing than to come out to meet us. i have to admit i've been guilty of assuming that of some of my friends. it's only when you're the "offender" that you realise how difficult these things can be. but this is not an excuse. not a day goes by that i don't feel guilty for neglecting some of my friends. and sometimes i wish to make amends but i just don't know how? perhaps you could teach me? but if ignoring me makes it easier, then i suppose i'll just have to accept it as my due. enough abt the cryptic stuff. my sister's coming back tmr! i'm quite psyched. especially since she said she bought lots of stuff for me :) it's always nice to get new things, don't you think? and i'm finally gonna move my precious pc into my room! ok maybe not so precious now, considering it's plagued with viruses. the cable guy's coming to fix the wireless router (is that how you spell it?) on thursday so i'd better start moving this load over tmr. went running today and almost died. ok granted, i've never been a hard-core exercise freak but today was just disastrous. i guess it's kinda expected considering the last time i ran was 6 months ago. but still! damn worried now. i'm convinced i'm gonna die of a heart attack soon if i don't do something abt my sedentary state. and so! i've decided i shall be active. hur! went down to sicc on sunday and the guy gave me the contacts of all the tennis/squash coaches. quite happy to see my old coach is still around :) shall call him up and rehire him. anyone interested in going for lessons with me? it's cheaper if 2 ppl learn together. not sure if you have to be a member too, though. tag me or sms me if you're interested yeah? my parents weren't too pleased with my choice of sport. "why tennis? why not golf?" eeks! golf is totally boring. (not to mention, expensive.) never understood how my dad could be so on abt the game. i'm going swimming tmr :) sch's reopened so the pesky kids shouldn't be around to kachiao me, thank goodness. sigh gotta kill time. 8 more days leh! hope he's all right. sigh i wish i were still working. time crawls when you have nothing to do...except eat durians. my parents are insane! they just bought another batch home. our third batch in 2 weeks, can you believe it! i think i need to start dieting soon. can just feel my arteries clogging up with all this bingeing going on. ugh!

being the pms-induced bitch i am, i deliberately pick a fight with him. said many terrible hurtful things and in return, i get this--  along with a really sweet card. i've got to be the most blessed--albeit unworthy--girl in the world. could someone please slap me? anw, for fear of grossing out ppl, i've made it a point to try to be less mushy on my blog--not that i've actually succeeded. nonetheless, i'd just like to say i love you :)  happy together  9 months!

i foresee an outbreak of ulcers and pimples. haha! went to buy durians with daddy just now after my driving lesson and came back to feast (he let me drive all the way home!! oops! shhh...don't tell anyone) gotta load up on water over the next few days man. but wah! really good stuff! i was quite impressed watching daddy pick out the durians. made me wonder how i'm gonna do my grocery shopping in the future. he taught me how to choose apples so that's ok. but what abt veggies and other fruits? and FISH! ok i guess i can learn in time. but still...made me feel so incompetent. which guy would want to marry a girl who can't cook to save her life? ok maybe not that bad lar...i can cook instant noodles and roast lamb and bake so i guess i'm not that much of a failure. at least i know i won't starve to death. hur.. yay! i finally got my nice big projectshop bag! thank you darling! and 3 pairs of shoes! omg...i'm becoming a shopaholic (ie a typical female.) then today went down to ikea to get a dressing table and i realised that ikea does not have proper dressing tables. they had this plank-like thing which looks like a shelving unit and i thought it would be pretty cool to get that, along with a nice little chair/stool but in the end i didn't cuz i figured daddy would kb if i asked him to drill holes in my wall. plus it would make it quite inconvenient to shift my furniture around next time, so i decided to get an ordinary small table and decorate it up really nicely with funky knick-knacks and stuff :) but first! i have to assemble my table! ooo i just love fixing things--which probably explains the choice of uni course. speaking of which, i'm quite psyched up abt uni! especially now that i've found company in my puny 34-man faculty. kristy just told me that xingni will be doing dentistry too. so happy! at least i'll know someone there :) yay! tmr's gonna be a great day. going to kristy's house first then later meeting darling cuz he's booking out tmr! woohooo! can't wait :) Monday, June 13, 2005  my lovelies :) clara al ynay and me  3L class outing i guess the photo grid [the one on top] kinda summed up my day yesterday :) council outing with my dears. down to 4 from 6 cuz pansy had to work and kristy was sick :( so disappointing. but fun anw! had dinner then went down to esplanade. oo and if you noticed, i cut my hair! haha it's not as short as it looks there but definitely shorter. i like :) oh yes and clara's online shop totally rocks! http://www.chillipadi.tk if you're interested. but please! if you should buy anything there, don't wear them when you're out with me! hur...have several pieces i intend to order and i don't really wanna end up wearing the same things man. clones! went for a driving lesson today. it was quite unnecessary considering i'd already finished my lessons last week but i decided to go anw to brush up on parking. and i really wanted to see my favourite pair of instructors again :) was really happy when i got mr lim. he's my favourite of the 4! really friendly and amusing but strict when the need arises. saw mr tan too! the one who always calls me doctor joey--or rather, doctor zou-wee. lol! quite funny. ooo and on the way to the driving centre daddy let me drive a bit :) was pretty fun cuz well, that's gonna be my future car (when i get my licence, that is. totally sucks to have a car waiting for you but no licence.) just have to get used to driving an auto. haha! after i braked, by reflex i stretched out my left leg to clutch in but there wasn't any clutch pedal so there i was, kicking the air like some idiot. lol! totally spas man. Thursday, June 09, 2005  sisters my jierry's coming back from aussie soon! and the best part is my grandma will be coming with her! so happy :) anw that pic was taken last year i think. we don't look alike, do we?

met up with my nbr today for tea (so *ahem* english sia) at 6th ave's venezia. he came to pick me up in his super huge car (and by huge i mean huge! as in have-to-climb-up-to-get-in-and-leap-down-to-get-out huge!) so i didn't have to walk out to take bus. totally rocks to go out with ppl who can drive. but it's way better to be able to drive yourself and i'm really looking forward to that day. so anw had a pretty good time catching up, with him regaling me with stories abt his p-plate days. lol! then went down to holland v to get his friend a birthday present--a bouquet of 20 roses! and this is considering the girl's just his friend (or so he claims lar.) i'm freaking jealous man. why can't my bf do something like that? haha ok i'm just kidding. but a birthday present, at least, would be nice? didn't get a single b'day present this year except money from my parents. sigh ok i shouldn't be complaining. i'm blessed enough and he treats me really well. anw i've digressed. back to the flowers. they were really pretty!! and CHEAP! i was gawking at all the huge bouquets at the florist expecting them to cost abt $50 at least but they were only $35! [note to boyfriends: get your asses down to the holland v florist and pick one up for your girlfriends today! they'll love you for it, trust me.] actually all i want now is for you to come back :( Tuesday, June 07, 2005
gonna finish my driving practical lessons by this week! i'm damn psyched! that's like...one and a half weeks earlier than expected. but dammit i'm gonna have to wait a while before i book my test because of my stupid theory. should have gone for my evaluation before the stupid lessons man. now i have to wait so long. sigh. looks like i won't be able to get my licence before uni starts even if i'm so lucky as to pass on the first attempt. agh!! *claws at face* bad planning...bad planning! anw. having 2 driving lessons a day is hell. ok it's all right if they bring you on the road but it totally sucks if they decide to stick you with stage 3 stuff like parking/slope/s course/crank course. that's what happened to me today and now my legs are really suan. i've concluded that it's not humanly possible to do low-speed control for 200 min. 5 min before time was up my instructor made me go through the crank course again and i just couldn't make it man, even though i perfected it during the previous lesson. he took pity on me and told me to let him take the wheel. gee.. my nbr sebastian's back from uk! was pleasantly surprised to receive a "missed call" and an sms from him today saying he's back for hols. hopefully we'll be able to meet up sometime to catch up and stuff. speaking of catching up, date with my lovelies this sunday! so excited! especially since i managed to get all but wanling (and the overseas ppl, of course) to go. hopefully they don't pangseh me. sigh...why do we all get more rotten as the years go by? i used to pride myself on being a good loyal friend but now, well, i guess i've become a pretty lousy friend--if i can even call myself one. like i think abt wq and i get so damn guilty [wq i don't think you read my blog anymore but if you do, just wanna say, again, how terribly sorry i am for everything :(] sigh...just the other day my mom was asking me abt how my ij friends were doing and i couldn't answer her. it's so sad considering how we used to be so close. i mean, we sms each other on birthdays and stuff but that's abt as far as it goes now. maybe i should call for a reunion in december again, like in the old days :) i suppose the only friends i can still consider myself close to would be ppl like the councillors and yenny. but even then we meet up so seldom that it sometimes seems like they're hardly there. is it a case of zhong se qing you? but i hardly see him except on weekends (well, most weekends anw.) maybe it's just cuz ppl are mostly free on weekends while i'm free on weekdays? or maybe...maybe i'm just a lousy friend :( Sunday, June 05, 2005
wouldn't it be nice if the world was cadbury driving in the car would be a tasty treat changing gears would soon become a problem cadbury dairy milk is so good to eat when you arrive at your destination you'll be greeted with an eeeeexclamation... wouldn't it be nice! oo i love that ad! fell in love with it when i first saw it in aussie and was so glad when they brought it over. waiting for the third one abt the postman and the dog. heh! anw finally watched madagascar today. so disappointing! sigh...guess pixar films are the only ones worth getting psyched up abt. but i had a fun day anw! met bryna on the way back to wil's house and had a nice time catching up on the bus. (ugh! i have only one thing to say--the tang is one deprived se lang man. damn grossed out! *shivers*) then had dinner at wil's place before sending him back to safti :( and now i won't be able to see him for almost 2 weeks. sucks man..esp since i only got to see him today thanks to his weekend duty. sigh...oh well this week's gonna be real busy for me anw. 9 driving lessons in 5 days! is that xiong or what. at least it'll keep me occupied while he's off in the jungle. shall go do some theory practice now...

Results of Your IQ Test IQ Score = 132 What does your score mean? Wow! A score above 130 means that your performance on this test was way above average. Actually, according to this test, you are absolutely brilliant. Only a very small percentage of people score this high. (http://www.queendom.com) hear that? i'm brilliant. hur! well according to this site anw. actually they make it sound like 130 is average and i'm just a little above average. is that how it works? or is average = [(180-50)/2]+50 = 115? (180 being the highest and 50 being the lowest according to the scale here) oh crap...suddenly i don't feel so "brilliant" anymore |
