Had lunch with Jean and Xueli yesterday.. I had a really really great
time!! We went to Sunshine Plaza for western food, then proceeded to
the coffeeshop in front of the transvestites' accomodation for ice
lemon tea. Hee. SO SHIOK! We talked about a lot of funny things..
Haha.. Laughed like hell!!
Today is friday.. Kane supposed to meet me for lunch, but she's busy!
Oh well, I was quite busy too.. Haha.. Had lunch at like 1 plus.. Was
doing the usual work with the database, and found this in the inventory:
In case you guys cannot tell what is typed in the yellow
highlighted cells.. First cell says Cherie, second cell says Teresa.
One above the other! Haha.. What a coincidence! I was so amused, I took
a snapshot of the screen (printscreen). Haha. So there you go.. Lol.
Had dinner at grandma's house.. Wanted to buy Ben & Jerry's ice
cream at NTUC because it's on offer.. $19 for the price of 2! But I
didn't pass by the place.. Too tired to walk to NTUC before going home,
plus my aunt offered to send us (brother and me) home..
Don't know what to blog about..
I'm going to make payment for my school fees soon.. It's more or less
confirmed already, isn't it? I'm still feeling a little overwhelmed..
Mixed feelings.. Perhaps it's just like what Cherie is feeling too..
But I guess we're having such feelings about different issues.. Oh
well.. I've already made the decision and preparation already.. I don't
want to give it up just like this.. I've been waiting for this chance
for so long!!
Received a reply from Liesl to the email that I sent to her the other
time.. I was so touched to read what she wrote! Sigh. Hearing from her
again always bring back many happy memories of the ahs days. Why?
Because days in ahs are.. Very happy. Haha. Oh my, what limited
vocabulary. What I wanted to say is.. I've had a great secondary school
life.. Wonderful people, funny jokes about teachers like Potato, Tong
Tong Chiang, Choo Hua Hua, Moo Moo, ZZF and his forever loud laughter,
gossips about this and that, funny incidents like the footsteps on the
ceiling, guys hiding food in their pockets to smuggle up to class for
us and jumping up and down because the food is hot, cat shit in 2C's
class, etc.. There're endless things to talk about our ahs life.. 4
years.. Though we're together in the same class for 2 years, I feel so
attached to her! Awwww... I miss her... Haha..
Cherie's sweet too.. Sent me an email.. She remembers my email by
heart!!! She always takes an effort to remember things about other
people.. Unlike me, I always forget things... Or else, I'll mix up the
facts.. =X I'm sorry if I look like I cannot be bothered to remember
anything about other people.. I'm really sorry!!!
Ok, will end here. Nights!!
Amazing Grace? Amazing Race? Nope.. Amazing MUM.Ok, quite a stupid title.. God's grace is definitely amazing, just that he's not the lead in my little post today.. *Sorry God.. I'm ashamed to say I don't know much about you to speak about you like you're my best friend.. But I will learn..*
Probably half the world out there is wondering, why amazing
Mum? Especially when most of the time when I speak of my mum, I probably only have complains about her being irritating/naggy. Which is.. Not without a basis.. But I think that sometimes I am just being impatient and intolerant..
On a more superficial perspective, my mum's amazing because..... Her hair hasn't turned gray even though she's nearing 50! She still looks rather young, though she would be prettier if she isn't so skinny. (Oops, criticising her again. -bish myself- Will refrain from complaining about her in this post. =P) She's rather brainy! I believe that if she's given the opportunity to study further and get a degree, she'd get first class degree, or masters. Haha. She studied Nihongo, and is rather good at it. Isn't she amazing?
I used to think that she likes to make a mountain out of a mole hill.. Like how she complains that my dad never told her whether he'll be home late for dinner or not.. I thought it doesn't matter really.. Then, I came to know that my dad is a fussy eater.. Wants his food hot, but doesn't give notice when he'll be back. Ok that's just a small little example.. I know my dad's got a lot of terrible habits, and it amazes me how my mum spent almost 20 years with him like this. She's changed to be more tolerant, more open minded.. More like a mum. Haha.
After being in the workforce for about 4 months, I start to understand how the working life is like. I have many complaints about every bit of my working life, though I know that it's quite a slack job already. I often wonder how my mum could manage everything on her own. Dealing with 4 shipments all on her own, while others combine forces to deal with only 1. Being overloaded with work, yet still can do things perfectly and not making mistakes. (Unlike me, I only handle a few things, yet I always oversee things.. =X) At work, she has to deal with stress from the upper management, back at home, she still has the energy to face us and listen to my complains and deal with my horrijible temper.
After work, gotta rush home and make dinner for my brother (and me sometimes, because I'm not home most of the time.) I'm such a terrible daughter, because I spend so little time with my family, not cherishing the last few months here before I leave..
She cooks dinner for us, and she will always ask us whether it's up to standard or not. Most of the time I will just say it's ok, meaning that it doesn't taste bad or anything. Well, I am not fussy about food, as long as they are not beansprouts and some other stuff that I don't like.. (Oh that's still fussy right?) What I mean is, if meat is cook too hard or something, I will still gobble it down, because it is not beansprout. I will still say it tastes ok, because I'm fine with it as long as it's not something I hate. Sometimes she irritates me, because she would ask me what
ok means. I would then reply in that irritated tone,
ok means ok la, why you keep asking.. I'm bound to get retribution for that. Forever short-tempered, failing to see the woman's enthusiasm/eagerness to please her children with food that she cooked all on her own. How many mums are capable of that? I see parents who give their children money, and ask them to buy their own meals. Despite her workload, together with the housework (eg. washing clothes, dishes, cleaning the house, ironing clothes, etc), she still manages to take care of our meals. Isn't she amazing?
Aiya.. Too distracted.. Maybe I'll continue on this topic another time.. Anyway.. I wanna say Mum, you're amazing, and I love you!
I bought a new wallet yesterday!
Lazy today, didnt go cycling..
Wanna go out and hunt for the big big nalgene bottle and surf web at nydc.. But the unfortunate guy who's supposed to accompany me seemed to have disappeared from the sms world.
Now still stuck at home....... Waiting to see if I can dabian some more before I go out. Charging my Neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeon at the same tahm.
I think I'm pms-ing.... How?
Wants:
1. A chauffeur. Help, somebody! I don't like getting shoved around by green goblins when I get on the train/bus.
2. Somebody to wash my air-con filters and clean the air-con for me. Saves me the trouble, of course, and I don't like feeling dizzy after climbing up and down the ladder. It's supposed to be a man's job anyway.
3. Somebody who knows how to fix washing machines. FOC please. I want free labour.
4. Somebody who can teach my brother so that I won't be the one vomitting blood.
5. Somebody to listen to my mum ramble and complain about my dad and their separation.
6. Somebody to sponsor my studying.
7. Somebody to do my work for me so I can catch up on my sleep.
8. Somebody to give me sound advice when I need them.
I'm feeling sleepy again.. Sian. When will I not feel sleepy?
I don't know what to do about my back problems..
Can somebody sing me a song? I want a nice nice song..
Or tell me a story when I go to bed.
Guess I should go out now.. Since I still cannot dabian..
1.5 months more to the wedding!!! Not my wedding.. My cousin's the one getting married. I'm excited nevertheless. Hehe. That's because I finally get to be the bridesmaid! That is soooooooooo long-awaited! I must try to lose weight before the fateful day.. It's not everyday that I get to become a bridesmaid leh.. Haha.
Don't know what to blog about..
Hm.. I went cycling last Sunday!
Yesterday, Cherie came over to swim.. Had another good chat with her! Wilson was there too.. And I bet he was very "duh-ed" by us.. Haha.. We the crazy twins. One day must let Xueli and Cherie meet up too.. Then perhaps we'll all become such great friends we can be triplets!!!! Lolx.
I really wish I can sing in a full choir once again.. I so miss singing!!!!
Met Yanming the other day.. Hope he can organise a chalet soon!
Aiyo.. Blogging is so leychey.. Everytime something interesting happens, I tell myself I must blog.. But now....... Everything forget. Tsk. Maybe next time, you guys should just set me some topics for me to crap about.
So... I shall end here!
