Dad: Yong, how to make Jie's birthday more exciting?

Yong: I don't know leh.

Dad: I was thinking of getting her a dress to surprise her but... I don't know how to buy. I don't think she will like the dress I choose.

Yong: OH. err.. ya. i think don't get her a dress la. we will think of something else.

Dad: oh. okay okay... you think of something then we discuss again.

The Micheal Jackson chocolate bar.

Was watching E! Entertainment and amongst the many artistes they were commenting on for having clothing lines…watch lines…blah blah, came this piece of information that there actually is a Michael Jackson chocolate bar. One can be sure I wont love it. Since there’s bound to be a choice of only White Chocolate, White Chocolate, White Chocolate and MAYBE Milk Chocolate, and since my favourite’s Dark Chocolate, sorry Mike, I maybe a huge fan of your music, but you don’t get my vote on the chocolates! Im sticking to good ol’ Mr Wonka for those! *wink*

drats. the green and red mouse has reappeared. why? why come back out when you remained hidden for so long? i almost forgot you existed. RUNAWAY. and never come back. i want you dead and gone.

gold the runner!

liling: I've conquered the 4.5km mark!

me: oei! never wait for me. we're supposed to start together!

liling: i think. you need to sit in between jane and liza. then you will start running. like immediately.

all i needed was jane. her hot body, and her ridiculously amazingly convincing mouth. then there's the milk run. and liling participating. just last night, i swore i am not going to do anything to crazy until i was more prepared.

AND THEN, this morning, in the shower...a strange voice within my head, "okay. im going for the run. the full 9.4km."

so after eating a full bowl of rice, and downing 600ml of water in fear of dehydration, i met jane and liling at 3pm, outside river valley primary school, geared in my brother's maroon fbt singlet and a pair of shorts i dug outa my pjs drawer.

at the start line. 3.10...

me: oh fug. i need to pee.

liling and jane: uh oh.

(see i SPECIFICALLY ASKED the older of the 2 ng brothers if i would feel like peeing upon drinking so much before the run. he told me "no la. you'd be perspiring like mad. wont feel like peeing. you better drink at least 500ml of water." YEAH RIGHT.)

at 3.12...

me: oh crap. i really need to pee.

liling and jane: oh no. can tahan 1.5hrs?

me: i try.

3.14...

me: holy shamoozee i really need to pee! ahhh!! help!

3.15, race started.

3.20 while running past riverview hotel...

me: okay i really cannot take it MY BLADDER IS BURSTING.

jane: okay go in and pee! we wait for you here.

in the hotel...

me: WHERE IS THE TOILET?!?!?!???!

recep: 2nd floor..

WHY CANT THEY HAVE ONE ON THE 1ST FLOOR?! i need to feedback.

that must have been the fastest pee ive ever managed.

exited the hotel, to find my two very sweet friends still waiting there for me, with NOONE ELSE. what a start.

anyways after what felt like 43121516km...

me: how far have we ran?????

jane: uhm not bad! we already covered about 2plus km!

liling and me: !#$%^&!#$%^ ONLY?!?!??!?!?! AHHHHHH!!!

same thing happened at the 5th. and 6th. and 9th km.

when i finally saw the F I N I S H sign..it spelt H E A V E N. really.

i still cant believe i completed the run. i AM PROUD OF MYSELF. even though to many its no biggie. rewarded myself with MILO FROM THE MILO TRUCK! :) :) :) i LOVE MILO FROM THE MILO TRUCK! i want to someday OWN ONE. KUDOS TO LILING AND MYSELF! to jane: YOU DA BOMB! as a friend, runner and pacer :) WE LOVE YOU!

up next... THE NIKE RUN and THE GREAT EASTERN WOMEN'S 10KM RUN. hohoho!

secondofjulytwothousandandeight.

Today, i went to the gym. GYM OKAY. people who know me WILL be amazed. like the jaw drop to the floor and rolls 2km away kinda amazed. and listen to this, i conquered the 4.5km mark on the threadmill! *whoot whoot* i did, 4.6km! hurhur. aint that SOMETHING. i am on the way to running a marathon! jane will be SO PROUD. she is the queen of marathons. 42km runs we are talking about here. when will i EVER get there. then i did some weights, and then went for boxercise which was oh so fun. in the words of my brother, i hope i dont lose this drive anytime soon. no. make that anytime at all. even typing is tiring. *gasp* but in the words of macdonalds, ba da bup bup bup...im lovin' it!

a random interruption. what is up with names of artistes these days. like yoga lin is bad nuff. but i'd give it to them since his name is 林宥嘉 （lin you jia) and it does..kinda....in some way...sound like yoga :s listen to this though; jam. yes. JAM hsiao, 蕭敬騰. like JAM? for someone who has sucha nice voice, he definitely deserves a nicer name. and there're worse ones. like EMOTION. and KINGDOM.

im awaiting a peanut-butter and a pilates. and i am sure now. that i do LURVE my name.

********************************************************************

last friday, ripple, myself, my bro and lewis went to sentosa. its been a LONG WHILE. and we had sooo much fun.

found a frangipani. was happily looking pretty with it tucked behind my ear only to find that frangipanis are linked to pontianaks :s whoteva. it looks pretty on me anyways! *flicks hair*

my ridiculous bro wanted to take home some plant-lings (or whatever you call those) to grow. decided that his slippers were the best place to place them while we frolick in the sun and enjoy the sea breeze. he subsequently forgot to take them home.


again my brother, being that little nature boy that he always has been since litte, caught a fish which had a broken tail. decided to also take it home to try save it. aww. isnt that just so endearing.


that was also the fateful day that made me disvover my hidden for so long love for the gatchapon machines : fateful cause it burnt a hole in my pocket.

what a lovely day.

HAPPY DADDY'S DAY TO THE BEST DADDY IN THE WORLD! :)

mr ng should be a happier man today than he was father's day last year. because this father's day, his children did something(s) to acknowledge him as that wonderful father he was, is and always will be! :) i love you pops. you are indeed the 二十四孝爸爸！uhm. it is that 孝 right?

the ng brothers and i have always had difficulties deciding what to get for the ng father. we originally decided on getting an ipod so that he can use the itrip to listen to his songs in the car.

me: let's get him an ipod and the itrip. then he can listen to songs in the car.

older of two younger ng brothers: okay. oh no. but very ex. i dont have money.

me: oh ya. now jobless. so me too. :( okay, let's get him the ipod. then ask him to get the trip himself?

ng brother: but ipod still very ex right?

me: oh ya. 200plus. boo. okay i know. we get him the itrip. then he get the ipod himself.

ng brother: HAHAHA. no i got better plan. we get him the songs IN the ipod. ipod and itrip he buys himself. on?

hurhurhur. OF COURSE that didnt and wouldnt happen. we are NICE kids.

after all the fuss..the ng siblings treated the family (which included the ng father, two ng aunties, one care taker, and the ng siblings) to a movie and baked him a cake. pictures will be uploaded tomorrow :)

HAPPY DADDY'S DAY DADDY. I LOVE YOU TO BITS AND PIECES AND YOU DESERVE EVERY BIT OF LOVE YOUR 3 OFFSPRINGS HAVE FOR YOU AND MORE! *smiles*

maomao

rest in peace maomao. take good good care of your owner from up there and be sure to bless her with pretty furry glittery dreams of you!

Jojo's getting married and i am OH SO EXCITED. the tentative date set's july 11th 2009. i am SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO EXCITED. I AM THE OH SO HONORED MAID OF HONOR! i feel so special and loved. :) :) :) even though a bridesmaid's really the...bride's maid. aka the one who holds the hand bouquet when the bride goes "ahh someone help me hold my flowers!", also the one who holds the dress when the bride goes "ahh someone help me hold up my dress!" and the one who wipes the perspiration off the bride's face when she goes "ahh my make up's running!" amidst many other chores. met her for lunch today and my tasks so far are..firstly, to check up on hotel wedding packages...and....prepare a file labeled "Jo's wedding" and a notebook labeled...the same name. oh what alot of things i have to do! WHAT'S THE CHORE IN GETTING BUSY OVER SOMETHING SO EXCITING?! i am happy for you jojo :) sincerely! :) very very happy for you. i think i will cry at your wedding :( so be sure to introduce me some very good quality waterproof make up okay?

so for lunch, jo and i met at novena (again), and ate at long john's (again). there is some new meal called the peg-leg meal (which i have tried to locate a picture of online but in vain.) which is oh so yummy. the meal comprises of : 1 chicken piece, approx 5 pepper chicken pieces (peppery and more tender version of the popcorn chicken) and 3 drumlets with fries and a drink. all that only for $5.50! then we went shopping for abit. i got myself a pair of denim berms while jo, being her usual self, within half an hour, bought 2 tops, a pair of shoes and a watch. *woweee*


to make this entry appear less wordy, heres a short interception showing bobby in one of his homer simpson moments.

for those who know who bobby is, dont we all love his homer moments?? for those who dont, well, im sure you know who homer simpson is. so just look for homer in the pic. ooh bobby. you are so cuteeeeeee *pinch pinch*

back to my boring day. at night, i met jane and fengyi and we went to watch kungfu panda. that show is F U N N Y. H I L A R I O U S. like the HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA BUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA kinda funny. i laughed from start to end. jane CRIED. dont ask me why. jack black is the voice over for mr panda, angePEEna jo-disgusting-lie (sorry i dont like her very much) the voice over for tigress, lucy liu for the viper and jackie chan for the monkey (who hardly spoke. hence, no reasons for guessing why hes allocated the role.)

jane left almost immediately after the show. fengyi and i had shopping urges which were impossible to quell. but one problem: it was 10pm :( we got so desperate we walked into bossini AND giordano AND almost did to baleno. along the lucky plaza stretch. damage done: none. then, as we were walking...HEAVEN. why? TANGS OPENS TILL 11PM ON FRIDAYS! not sure about saturdays but who cares since its friday today. so YAY.

TANGS is having a rather mad sale. i should say SINGAPORE is having a rather mad sale. thanks to the GREAT SINGAPORE SALE which is a simply awesome invention or whatever you call it. i bought two skirts (okay i plead guilty for buying two of the same one in different colors :s) from martina pink. damage done: $36 ALTOGETHER. and auntie goldie exclaims: CHEAP RIGHT!?!??! WOOHOO! happiness attained: within 10 mins. *flicks hair*

okay off i go to watch my 法政先锋II.

marie marie marie... you're a shi...ney peaaarl!

Marie and her very good looking offspring came and left. boohoo. i miss her already :(

First day i met her. Walking from Bugis to Arab Street.

Marie: ooh my hand smells like.... SMELL MY HAND!

Me: (expecting something pleasant.) EEW! WHATS THAT!

Marie: *laughsss* PUKE!

Me: WHAT!!!

Marie: zozo didnt want me to leave her at home. so she cried and cried till she puked all of her dinner out. i didnt have time to wash my hands before leaving home. so like my left shoulder? also smells of her puke.

kudos to all mothers.

At dinner in arab street, she innocently asked the waitress "What beers do you guys have?" discovering that Arab Street is more like..halal street, when Fengyi asked where she wanted to go to after dinner, "im okay with anywhere at all. as long as theres alcohol. " so we took her to Clarke Quay. Where she ordered a lychee martini. After her first sip.

Marie: *giggles* *grins* *smiles*

Me: babe are you like drunk already?

Marie: NO! im just. very happy!! to have alcohol in my system!! you know, thats why i didnt want to take zozo with me today. having a kid and all, i dont drink in front of her. and now...im just....so happy to have alcohol in my system! *giggles* *grins* *smiles*

kudos to marie as a mommy.

Second time i met her. with the st nicks babes.

Location: House @ Dempsey

Me: okay i think im leaving soon. am beat.

Marie: you are not coming clubbing with us?!

Me: nah don't think so. am really tired man :(

Marie: oh DO COME! YOU HAVE TO COME! PLEASE?? (pleads from our walk to the toilet and back to our table)

Me: sorry babe..am VERY tired. i'd see you again maybe tomorrow for dinner? (started packing my bag)

Marie: (in her desperation) AHH! IM GOING TO PULL DOWN YOUR PANTS!!!


"zoe, what's in your tummy?"

"uhm.. ahh.. david cook and david archuleta"

*LAUGHS OUT LOUD*

fifthofjunetwothousandandeight.

I had lunch with the cheong aunties today and one of my very many smarties cousins was there too. (as you can see, it runs in the genes. *flicks hair*) He is if im not wrong, a blood specialist or something in NUH. He just received some Singapore Translational Research Award and was the youngest of all the recipients. He also gives talks to high flyers in the industry and is earning a rather niceeeee amount of money a month. THAT is the crucial thing. After all the “woowees” and “ohmahlooonieees”, upon seeing my littlest brother (who isn’t that little really.) who is studying for his A levels in the living room, I started my mommy preach. On…doctors.

An: hello jie.

Me: hello. Eh. Wee Ju kor kor is super amazing okay… you know he… (blahblahblah) SO AH, do you want to be a doctor? Cause I think you should. Can earn a lot one you know. See the aunties? Lao ah-yi has a son who is a doctor, has his own clinic in Hong Kong some more. Very accomplished leh. And then look at Wee Ju kor kor. Come out in newspaper all. Plus most importantly, earn a lot of money!

An: (nods repeatedly)

I am beginning to understand the woes of my gone to be with the Lord perfect mommy. I miss you ma. Don’t worry I will try my very best to make sure littlest brother does well :)

Then I (finally) met Emily and Pam for dinner. It has been SO LONG. Pam lost a whole lot of weight and I am amazed at her APPETITE! Her diet is probably equivalent to one third a sunflower seed a day hamster terms. She, being a body shop addict, scared me enough for me to get a body shop seaweed edition facial wash :s YES I don’t own a facial wash. I wash my face with the shower gel when I shower :s

Pam: you should get a proper regime for your face you know. See your eyes, got some fine lines already. Must take special care of your eyes one you know. It’s the first place that will show your age. I mean you no need to do too many things to your face. Since you are lucky enough to be born with rather good skin. But its about time you start to care for it already. Like must take care of your freckles and all. Will multiply one. (calls for a body shop helper) uhm… can you please advise my friend on a simple regime for her face?

Me: :( yes mam.

See what stewardessing is doing to my friend :(

She looks at her favourite book.
516 pearly white pages,
words printed in opaque black,
colors of the pictures radiant as
the smile looking at them brings upon her face.

She’s read it about 730 times now.
Once everyday.
Today, she turns 16.

She looks at her favourite book.
516 pale yellow semi torn pages,
faded writings amidst the black printed words,
translucent plastic sheets pasted over
the now discolored pictures.

She’s read it about 25915 times now.
Once everyday.
Today, she turns 85.

Her face, still beaming from her simple happiness.

i am at home on a saturday night fb-ing and yes, blogging. i am a boring person who's bored :(
am now catching the american idol season 7 marathon. i think that jason guy with the dreadlocks is oh so cute. just that he cant seem to sing too well :s but whatever! his looks win me over ANYWAY! *grinsss*)


****************


so that was written on saturday. today is, wednesday. with the blinking of an eyelid/ the flashing of a row of stars, the long weekend twinkled by. no more long weekends for the year if im not wrong. got an email this morning that the long weekends for the year 2009 are aplenty though. yummy. only if i live long enough to enjoy the next year :(

Okay so i went to malaysia (truely Asiaaaa) on sunday evening. and i was OH SO EXCITED WHEN I GOT THERE. why? i have actually... other than once when i had a stopover at KL on my way to vancouver... NEVER been to malaysia :s had kway teow, sting ray, sotong and coconut juice for dinner. oh so yummy. and fattening. but cheap. then there was a lil bit of shopping and MASSAGE as a wonderful finishing touch. 50 sing bucks for 2 hours. MADNESS RIGHT.

Monday night i went to jane's place to visit mao mao/ raoul/ mochacho/ xiao mao mi (yes that cat has just about as many names as number of lives) that poor thing :( even a non cat lover like myself felt my heart squeeze. you see, her cat fell off her balcony. and is currenly paralysed waist down. she brought it to the JAMES TAN clinic, and was harshly advised to PUT IT TO SLEEP. thank God they didnt. cause hes SO MUCH BETTER NOW. speaking of animal names. this is a typical happening whenever i call a pet clinic:

me: i would like to make an appointment for my dog to see the vet tomorrow at 6?

nurse: okay... is this your first time?

me: nope.

nurse: okay can i have the owner's name?

me: oh..Goldie. G-O-L-D...

(before i can finish)

nurse: no no, the OWNER'S name not the pet's name.

me: errm. yes, my name IS GOLDIE. grrrrrr.

And may i please reccomend everyone KOREAN INSTANT NOODLES. it is OH SO MAD YUMMY. jane's mom cooked a packet for liza and myself to share. i tell you, EPITOME of QIU-NESS. and SALTINESS. *slurps* i bought 3 packets today. from this Korean shop at cineleisure. which i have come to realise is not the same as the one i had that day :( what to do, on offer mah. i AM singaporean after all :s

okay it's back to work. i thought marie's arriving today. SHE ISN'T. shes leaving vancouver on the 21st. arriving in singapore only on the 23rd early morning. nasty. well, GINA'S IN SINGAPORE AS WE SPEAK! WELCOME GINA! cant wait to see you! *smiles*

today, the television broke down.

Her finger sank through the thin layer of dust before finally reaching the “on” button. She was afraid of what that’d do but when the music came on, that instant nostalgia, which both wrenched and warmed, made it impossible for her to press that button once more.

That was what accompanied her until 2 years ago. Those countless sad, happy, angry, touching songs took her through all those very same emotions. They were never all happy. If anything, most stung more than it eased. Her world was a mere black and white. But everything was...real.

Until the television came along. Everything became more happy than sad. Because she knew when to turn it on. When to change the channel. The television took her into a colorful world of fantasy. Where everything seemed, almost perfect. Where she thought, she was in control. It’s no surprise why the television soon took over.

Today, the television broke down. For good.

recently i have been hearing stories about people getting into trouble cause of what they post on their blogs. i never could, still dont, will never, and dont ever intend to, understand WHY. why get punished for airing own opinions on own spaces? strange how complaining about the service of a particular shop, restaurant or quality of a product would get them rendering better services or producing better products but doing so about a school you're studying in, or like a company you're working in would get your panties up on fire. look, like it or not, all you companies and schools out there, good, bad, famous, infamous, big, small or medium sized for that matter, you dont rock everyone's socks. so LEARN to be open to opinions. why should there be a difference between dealing with employees/students and consumers/the public? even if there are vulgarities here and there, mention of names, take it in your stride. you're not perfect. noone is. unless you are.......david tao..justin timberlake..catherine moennig..keira knightley..johnny depp..tanya chua..chen hao..i shall not go on..in MY eyes. punishing people for verbalizing their thoughts (shiety or not) in their own spaces is totally UNCOOL. and, if the public hears about it, (and they will cause word of mouth is an amazing tool.) you'd get slapped right back in the face. i mean you do know, theres something called karma. so perhaps instead of being all mean and narrowminded, open your heart, ears, nose, eyes, mouth, wallet, bag, door, and whatever other things you can open, to criticisms and just improve. that is definitely the better way out.

HOTTIE MOMMA PANTIES MARIE IS COMING BACK IN MAY!!!!!! scream and shout and make alota noise everybody!!! i hope her hottie baby zoe is coming back too! :D such excitables vegetables!!! *GRINSSS*

fifteenthofapriltwothousandandeight.

i met jane for dinner on friday and we wanted to head somewhere which'd have food without carbo. heres part of the deciding process for the location.

of course in the end we didnt go to harvey norman for dinner. instead, we went to this new japanese restaurant called shokudo. shokudo is actually that marche style japo place. but the one we went to was the japanese pasta and pizza place! its located at city link. next to asian kitchen. there is also one which just opened at orchard cineleisure.

the food there is to die for.

sometimes jane can look really like the tweety bird gramms. you guys think?

then again who am i to speak when i look like strawberry shortcake :(

so heres what we ordered. cream of mushroom,

which looked like cappuccino. jane thought it tasted weird. but i thought it was pretty good. she concluded that cause it looks like cappuccino, your brain kinda thinks that what your tongue's gonna taste'd be cappuccino, yet it doesnt come out tasting like cappuccino, hence the weirdness. in my opinion, jane just has a weird brain.

the cabbage and bacon creamy miso soup, which is simply aweeeeesome. i LOVED IT TO THE MAXIMUM. highlight of the dinner :)

asparagus and fish roe pizza, also really yummy. but i thought the portion should have been bigger for the price.

and last but not least.. some.. chicken with seaweed thingie. which tasted ooooh so delicious too.

so much for no carbo.

:(

thanks to the lack of shopping cause of work, i have recently been displaying very bad shopping conduct. someone should kill me for having such distasteful choice of apparals. im sure jo'd do the honour without having me say so. but i should be forgiven. for i am experiencing the just-start-work-hence-no-time-to-shop-hence-
impulsively-buying-things-during-lunch-hour-syndrome. jane said id eventually grow out of it. i hope it happens soon. the hole in my pocket's already enormous nuff :(

tenthofapriltwothousandandeight.

today is wan ping's birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY :) her birthday falls on the same day as her husband, and her little girl's birthday's 3 days before. how cool's that?! now who EVER said people of the same horoscope cant get along?!

for those of you who do not know her yet, here she is!

she is my oh so nice colleague :) who also happens to be the owner of THIS tummy, and.................

the little cutsie inside! LOOK at that belly! she is like oh SO SO pregnant. will you believe that tiny woman you just saw above, is the one who owns this oh so PREGNANT TUMMY?! that there is only but ONE BABY in there?! that shes due only at the end of may?! :| i certainly do not. im so sure that when she pops, she'd be in for a surprise. triplets. oh yay. triple the fun.


in more office news, when they say you learn at work..you LEARN at work. THIS, is a picture of annabelle and myself (sorry for the horrid photo taking skills) at work, next to a ginormous roll of bubble wrap.

lesson learnt? bubble wraps are STATIC FILLED! *applause*

and here are some pictures of my desk. stop yawning.

camille's blog.

i was once hooked onto a blog, by this girl called camille. until she stopped blogging in July 2006. i decided to check on her blog again today to try my luck but to no avail. so i decided to add a comment on her blog. low and behold she commented back on one of my other blogs. heh. and i found out that she has yet another blog! she doesnt write in this new one as much as she used to in the other, but its good nuff for me to know that shes blogging again :) i am happy. hope all's well with you camille! *smiles*

sixthofapriltwothousandandeight.

i was being a facebook whore over the weekend when i found THESE horrrror filled pictures!O.O

what an ideal location. to place me right behind a teacher who has the same face shape and hair as me. if not for the outfit, i swear i would have had difficulties finding my oh so cute self. THANK YOU MY DEAR FRIENDS for still being MY FRIENDS despite my shameful past.

then again look at jo. i think she should be thanking me too. HAHAHA. JO AND HER SCORPION FRINGE. her reason? rebonding hadnt been invented at that point in time. yes yes, blame it on technology.

seems like the drastic change is also apparent in her spelling. but indeed the funny duckling has evolved into a pretty white swan. THIS, is to do her justice :)

this is us giving 张老师 a surprise birthday party in the canteen. arent we sweet. among the so many teachers that 4 hope(less) made cry, i believe this is the one time a teacher cried from happiness :) we werent that bad really. just a tad bit more mischievous than the special girls but we're really quite lovable. REALLY! *blink blink* at least we know we made an impact on our teachers' lives (whether its a good or bad one is not the point)........ RIGHT? and to set the records straight.. there were (quite a number of) teachers who loved us OKAY.

i cant help it but....of EVERYONE, i HAVE to mention one person.... MARIE BOEY LI HUEY! look at that little monkey (she called herself that upon seeing that class picture on FB so no im not mean!) at the top left hand corner of the first picture?! (she is the 2nd one from the left) and compare that with THIS PSSSSSSSTTT PIPING HOT MOMMA and her oh so good looking little offspring *smiles*

3 words: OH MY GAWD.

arent we all glad we did a pretty decent job growing up. I MISS ST NICKS! :(

谢谢校长 for letting us attend social etiquette classes. *bow*

thirdofapriltwothousandandeight.

This week has been horrifying. i swear if not for some little lucky star somewhere in the sky, i would be dead by now. then again perhaps dying isnt even that bad a thing. grrrr.

to add to my "series of unfortunate events", sorethroat and fever decided to pay me a visit. without prior warning. seriously, what happened to both your manners? urgh. thank godness they're kinda leaving after some very severe chasing away. SHOO SHOO! physical shiets aside, you have got no idea just how many busses ive missed this week. and its the ooh about to cross the road! ooh gona be late! OOH I JUST YAN ZHENG ZHENG SAW THE DAMN BUS COME AND LEAVE kinda thing okay. let's not start harping on the smaller things in life. booohooo.

of which, i made a very sad discovery (either that or im just in denial). you see, the only full length mirrors which i come across when at work, are the lifts. and they make me look really OBESE. not that im like thin la. just that i will leave home satisfied with the way i look, but the darn lift mirrors will make me wonder "gobese ng, what in any frame of mind, made you decide you can even take one step out of the house looking oh so... OBESE?!" until i noticed that this was happening on a daily basis. so now im just gonna conclude that the fault lies with the lifts. i have since been trying to prevent myself from looking at the lift doors while waiting for the lift to arrive.

last night, lian hui suddenly called me. i use the term suddenly cause i havent heard from her since about.....457549 years ago.

me: AH LIAN!

LH: ehh. where are you now?

me: at home lor.

LH: ok dont freak out but.. guess who i just saw.

me: OMG WHO.

LH: i just saw........... tao zhe.

me: *SCREAMS AND JUMPS AROUND THE ROOM* for some strange reason the first thought that came to my mind was "oh shit my hair is so ugly now! how! quick blow dry properly!" :

me: ohmigoosh!!! what the hell!! where the hell are you now?!

LH: at The Cathay! if you want hurry come down now. The Cathay is not that huge. I'm sure we can find him again.

me: cannot la my hair is damn ugly now! :

LH: hes with a girl leh! OMG and they (friends) saw him holding her hand!

me: eee. girlfriend ah. how does she look!? pretty or not.

LH: shes damn skinny la.

me: her boops MUST be big. he likes boopie women.

LH: no leh. not big lor. but shes very tall and thin.

bleady shiet. go and say like boopie women and make me and dear bestie hopeful for nothing. *big sigh*

Dear friends. and random people. or noone. since noone reads my blog.

Here's an update:

I went for steps class at the gym yesterday (yes despite a sprained left ankle and black eye.) and got myself a twisted right ankle to add on to my poor bodeh :(

I NEED TLC :(

A Colourful Day.

its a dreadful monday and not only am i having the monday blues, i have a black eye (yes the orh bak kak kind), and a red left ankle. ooh what a colorful day.

saturday was going back to st nicks day. i have SO MUCH to blog about that but will do so when i have the pictures to put up. to cut a long story short, i really miss my second home! *wails* i miss xiao zhang, orange bowl, the gymnasium, spectator stand, sports' day, valentine's day, miss choo, the balcony, the red bridge, father barre, the hall.. canteen food, the school bell (and the countless belles. *grin*) :( , marie and her bung days... (oops!) and many many more. i will blog about it in another entry. meanwhile people can visit www.blinkymummy.blogspot.com for a beautiful trip down memory lane. 圣尼格拉我永远爱你!!!

anyways so, there we were; friends and i, in the st nicks gym.. jumping on the trampoline, allowing nostalgic thoughts about SN to bounce along in our heads, when someone suggested "LET'S PLAY DOG AND BONE!" just like we did in secondary school. for the sake of people who don't know what dog and bone is, ok i tried typing out how its played and trust me you would NOT be interested to read it. anyways, so from dog and bone it somehow evolved to rugby. our ball, was a water bottle. so there we were, a group of 10 girls, holding on to the water bottle for our dear lives. for some reason, we started spinning around in circles from one end of the area to the other.

and so came yet another spin-about. whooooooowheeeeeee.. *BANGG!!* someone's head collided into my eyebrow bone. OOOOOOUUUCCCCCCCCHHHHH! but my wonderful sportsmanship got me playing on till that round was over. area above the left eye started to swell and turn red. "ahh! i think my eye cant open fully. oh no im gonna go blind helpppp meee!!!" that went through my head cause i thought it'd be too loserly to verbalize it. Jane accompanied me to the toilet (sorry to sidetrack but: ooh i miss that gym toilet. its so different now! there are like dressing rooms in there!) while huijing went to get me some ice.

my team didnt win that round.

boooohoooo my left eye is swollen and black.

as if this isnt bad nuff for oh so vain me. i left home this morning, in those (!#$%^&*) black shoes which always cause me to sprain my ankle but in my black eye state of mind, i decided to wear it. yet AGAIN. i dont ever learn do i. yes i dont. rushing outa the side gate, first step out, and voila. sprained it. OOOUUUUCCCCCCHHH. i cried :( got a shock. limped right back home and changed to flats. limped to work without being late. kudos to me.

boooohooo my left ankle is swollen and red.

first thing i did when i went to work, email everyone to inform them of my injuries to save myself the embarrassment :(

left side oh left side. please be kinder to yourself and not hurt any other part of yourself anymore. right side oh right side. do stay strong for left side's sake.

omigootness i havent been blogging. not like i have any avid readers but reading kerlie's blog inspired me to blog again :) kudos to you kerlie!

i have FINALLY found a JOB! :D my workplace is at novena square. kerlie's having some attachment thing at TTSH and we have been trying to meet for lunch but in vain. her indecisive lecturers are always shuffling tutorial timings around! shame on you kerlie's lecturer! and accompanied with the very rigid lunch hour (yes i stress that its only but one lonesome hour nothing more.) i have, we have not met even once :(

now i shall give everyone random information about my office:

it is very cold. VERY.

i have my favourite starbucks mug sitting on the table, which id love to keep permanently filled with milo but i cant cause i need to go on a diet and oh so adorable milo happens to be go-on-a-diet unfriendly :(

the office has ALOT of courier boxes. and envelopes for that matter.

i have a spare pair of heels next to my chair and a lady bug back hitter used for my very weak and constantly painful lower back.

there are toblerone and cadbury chocolates in the fridge.

our toilet keys cost 41++ dollars.

yup so thats about all the random information i have to give thus far. will update with more in time to come!

Im still in office at 7pm because i am waiting for Jo to come and meet me. we are meeting for the second day in a row at the exact same place which is NOVENA SQUARE. why? cause i am nice and accomodating.

ooh tomorrow is ST NICHOLAS GIRLS' SCHOOL'S 75th anniversary! woooooohoooo! how coolios is that maan! *smiles and grins* boy am i excited. i wish wish wish that xiao zhang will be there.
