home sick.
i've got my first mc for this year and it's for two days! i'm on my second day at home now and supposedly resting after eating my medicine but i can't sleep! arghh...my throat hurts and my head hurt too..its damn horrible i tell you! i've been drinking so much water i feel like a water bucket. ok maybe a waterbucket that has a hole in it since i have to pee it out anyways. speaking of pee-ing, i'm so sick of going to the toilet i wished i had pampers. actually contemplated moving my grandma's mobile toilet bowl next to my bed. but decided that since i
have legs, i might as well use them. save me the trouble of washing the damn thing anyways..hohoho!
argh i cannot stand it! the funeral across the street is driving me crazy! they've been banging and playing and MORE banging and MORE playing since morning! i have no idea what is all that for and no offence towards the religion but i don't think the banging and playing is gonna help the deceased rest in peace man! i don't think its even helping the family to cope with their lost. i mean, do you play heavy metal or music with similar genre when you are upset?! unless you wanna burst your head open and start throwing things around, den carry on! i noe I'M not resting in peace! i can't even get to slp as much as i want to rest and the banging is making my head hurt even more. can't they just get on with it already!? ok i have to go pee.
*walks away*
on the brighter side of things (its not that bright cos i can hardly hear the tv), i finished watching
Friends dvd that my sis brought home from aussie! its a collection of the most favourite episodes with unseen footage and stuff. its so fun to watch and laugh amidst alot of throat/head pains and un-noticed glares out of the window across the street. ah anyways, clearing my mailbox now and realise that ever since i started filtering out all the "have big breast!" and "bigger breast for better pleasure!" mails, i've been getting alot of "penis!", "bigger penis!" and "bigger penis, greater pleasure!" maybe they think that i'm a male since i don't seem to have much interest in bigger breast. and the worse part is! i can't filter out the penis mails cos my filtering box is full already! does yahoo mail get as much junk mail as hotmail? if its not i'm changing over already!
right now the funeral 'music' has stopped to give way to the mosquito fuming department! well well don't we just love teamwork? its alright, the deafening motor sound is not irritating at all! and the fumes that they are emiting is so good for the body i can actually feel my throat getting numb.
Useless fact for the day: 40% of women have hurled footwear at a man.
and they still question women for their large collection of shoes. hmm.

new room! new hair! new year!
spring cleaned the house today! cleared my old room of all the rubbish and wa la! i have a new room! hohoho! still think my room is too big for me already..all the cupboards are not being utilised cos i don't have alot of stuff to put into them. so now most of my drawers are empty and i tried real hard to actually put things on my shelves so they actually look utilised. haa! the main point is..the tv is in my room now! together with the dvd player that is quite spoilt. but that's not important! just need to wait for dadddy to buy the cleaner and its ready to play sleepless in seattle in repeat mode!
and! i found soft toy that shihui gave me for my bday 1-2 years ago! shihui if you're reading this, its not that i'm bo xim...just that it was in the guess bag and i never saw it again. haha :p anyways! it has found a new home on my bed and i gave it a name! ladies and gentlemen, please meet mormor! hohoho it looks so cute! originally wanted to call it furball until 30 seconds ago realised that its not very nice. mormor sounds cuter..muahah!
lastly! i cut and dyed my hair today! went to my user hairdresser at taman jurong and i actually caught auntie xiaofeng and she helped me cut my hair..hohoho! wanted to cut it for a long time already cos its totally out of shape. finally dyed the colour that i've always wanted to try. auburn-violet-brown! everytime i want to try that color, someone or something will pop out and tell me its not obvious and its waste of money. but noo! today i did it and it looks nice! not too obvious, healthy looking colour..feel so pleased now! lalala! bad part is my hair is quite dry now *makes mental note to do hair mask tmr*
now i must to prepare sunday sch stuff for sunday already..gotta lead bible study and i'm not even thru reading the passages...ahh...God help me.
Useless fact of the day: It is physically impossible for pigs to look up into the sky.

Chances are - Robert Downey Jr
Chances are you'll find me
somewhere on your road tonight
Seems I always end up driving by
Ever since I've known you
It just seems you're on my way
All the rules of logic don't apply
I long to see you in the night
Be with you 'till the morning light...
I remember clearly
how you looked the night we met
I recall your laughter and your smile
I remember how
you made me feel so at ease
I remember all your grace and style
And now you're all I long to see
you've come to mean so much to me...
Chances are I'll see you
somewhere in my dreams tonight
You'll be smiling like the night we met
Chances are I'll hold you
an I'll offer all I have
You're the only one I can't forget
Baby you're the best I've ever met...
And I'll be dreaming ot the future...
... hoping you'll be by my side.
And in the morning I'd be longing for the night
for the night...
Chances are I'll see you
somewhere in my dreams tonight
You'll be smiling like the night we met
Chances are I'll hold you
and I'll offer all I have
You're the only one I can't forget
Baby you're the best I've ever met...
note: can't think of anything to blog right now. shall post tmr. stay tuned!

Promises.
Days often seem so gloomy and lost
So dark and so weary
And we're entirely engross
Things we go through are often so scary
How you wish everything could disappear.
Why do God puts us through all these test?
Don't he want to see us happy and glad?
He should know that our life's in a mess
All these test seems to make things go bad.
Chorus:
For God did not promise days without pain
Laughter without sorrow, sun without rain.
But he did promise strength for the day,
Comfort for the tears and light for the way.
Bridge:
Sometimes it seem not the way it should be
Does this show that he does not love me?
The fact that he died for you and for me.
This shows how much he cares for you and me.

suddenly just thought of this song yj lead in worship very long time ago..can't remember whether was she the one who wrote the song. anyways, looking at the lyrics now kinda comforted me and have me know that whatever pain we are going through, He's been there before and He will carry us through the good times and bad times.
oh ya, grandma went for operation today and i think she's fine now..somehow its a little weird that she became kinda aggressive after the op and started shouting at the doctors and nurses. shouldn't after operation pple be all weak and frail? hmm. oh well, she's still gonna be in the hospital for a little while with the physio and stuff..still have no idea what's the arrangement after she gets discharged but these things shall come later bah.
have no idea whether should i start taking my driving lessons now from the uncle..really don't know whether will i be able to make the time and money for it. but if i were to wait till i finish my attachment, i guess my motivation to learn driving will be gone by then. ahhh!! dilemma! must start scrimping and saving for the driving fees already. porridge and salted egg everyday now. yum.
days are too short to be spent pining.

uncertain.
lessons were cut short today cos the bp teacher was on MC..so went to sch early to take class photo, met shuling, tried real hard to paint nails for meiying, ate chicken cutlet, slack around for a while and went down to orchard with the girls. ate billy bombers again at heeren cos we wanted to redeem the milkshake and sundaes! ate cheese fries (yum!), 3 diff milkshakes (yumyum!) and a soda! (yum yum yum!) decided to go for the natas fair during march to check out the promotions offered by diff travel agencies for trips to either langkawi, lake toba, tioman or last resort, bintan.
really can't wait for attachment to end man..its getting ridiculous that we have to make up the lost hours on other days just becos they have last min meeting and had to close shop. i guess theres no point telling conrad abt it since he not do anything. can totally imagine him saying "working life is like that," "life isn't fair," "they let you go australia right?" yeah yeah i get the point, they let me go australia for 8 days and i have to endure crap. ya. alrite. wonderful.
went gyming at clementi after billy bombers with Y&Y, ian and kenny. think i shall stick to choa chu kang gym next time since its not so crowded and the equipment is newer. did not do much today tho..only cycled for a while and threadmill-ed for 25 mins. the weights there are heavy so i can't do sculpting exercises also. yep..definitely will stick to choa chu kang.
ahma fell and crack her hip at the day care today. super worrying. so she's as bad as paralyse cos she can't even move, let alone walk. the doc says that she will have to go for an operation or else she will be wheelchair bound. but the worse thing is the operation is risky in a way cos she's old and frail already. might lose blood and all that. plus, after the op, she might have to stay at a nursing home already..we wouldn't be able to take care of her cos we are all working. arhh...things are not well. just hope that she'll be fine.

you mean the world to me.
today's the first saturday that i worked full day. and we just spent the whole day trying to tally the accounts and make sure that we are not over-paying Tiger and under-charging our customers. it was so frustrating when we kept ending up with different numbers and having kim on our back thinking we have no idea what we are doing. she even indirectly insulted isabel by saying that we cannot be accountants. why insult you may ask? cos isabel apparently loves accounts and enjoys doing it. why am i not insulted? cos i'm really bad at it, i admit. harharhar! so we just spent the whole day doing mundane tasks and attempting to lift the elephant weight cupboard off the ground from one corner of the office to another.
so during lunch time (3o'clock cos we were still trying DAMN hard to tally the payment), we went down to adelphi for fish n chips and carbonara! and while waiting for our food, this guy walks into the cafe and smiled at us! but i was thinking "who are you?"..until isabel told me that he's one of the finalists from sg idol. oh. riiiighhhhtt. have no idea what's his name...somthing...something..anyways! so he was eating with his dad, and suddenly the dad started talking to this guy from the opposite table and proclaiming that his son is performing in some show or stuff and that he can bring him backstage or whatever. like we give a rats ass who is he. haha i think i'm just plain mean. maybe he's just trying to be friendly and yet here you have stupid pple like me criticizing him. i guess he chose the wrong time to smile. maybe if he had smiled at us when we've tallied the payment, we would have been less critical. :p oh ya! while we were eating, something something and his dad suddenly started singing man! in the cafe! in harmony! i nearly swallowed my fish without chewing it (which is okay to isabel cos she never chews her food). oh my gosh! get a room la. or better, get a karaoke room.
so after work we went in high spirits to the gym only to realise that it closes at 8 on weekends. gross man. daph luckily you felt lazy today. so we ended up jogging instead. unhealthy me jogged 3 rounds, walked 2 rounds and jogged the last round. that's why i prefer joggin on the threadmill..at least i feel more motivated to burn the calories! gym on tuesday anyone? or ktv? both are fine with me cos i got my pay today already! hahaha!
ok i'm bored with writing already..can't seem to string words into proper sentences so i shall stop before i bore myself to death. yawns. baby you're the best i ever met!

abs! thighs! and everything nice!
today was kim's birthday and we had a mini surprise for her which was actually already ruined when the dad happily (HAPPILY!) went to tell her that we asked what was her age. so she already kinda guessed that we knew that it was her birthday today. but anyhow! she still didn't expect the delicious CHOCOLATE MOUSSE cake, the sudden black out and the very horrible rendition of "Happy Birthday" by me. all in all, it was a surprise well executed amidst broken english, frantic gesturing, going to the 'toilet' one hundred times and attempting to rope the father (who happily spilt the beans) into the plan.
oh! and the best thing out of the nearly exposed plan??? kim let us off work half an hour earlier! its been so long since i've stepped out of the building after work and it was still bright outside! we just deduced that she was so happy at receiving the cake, the bracelet and the black out that she decided to let us off early to reward us! hohoho! *pleased*
oh oh! finally watched Kungfu Hustle today! watched it for free with the uob rewards voucher thingy so i don't have to pay a cent! so i get to be a generous person and 'treated' yuk to the movie. ah you! i will wait until i'm old and grey for you to get your credit card, EARN POINTS and treat me back! that aside, the movie was alright! not as funny as i expected it to be but the knife throwing part was hilarious and it was the only part that got me laughing till i ached. but if anyone haven't watch it yet, i rather you wait for the vcd which will be coming out soon and selling at $6. than you can watch the knife throwing part again and again till you gain abs from laughing!
speaking of abs!! all you out there who's starving and malnourishing yourself just to lose weight! try pilates! its less strenuous than aerobics but they really work the muscles man! i did 10 mins of sculpting, 10 mins of abs and 10 mins of thighs and buns and already i can feel the six pack ripping through the layers of fat, fighting to emerge! at the end of it i was actually perspiring and aching! alot of stretching, alot of pulling and alot of toning! i can see myself looking like the pilates instructor already! just 10 more years! i'm nearly there!
alrighty! after all the writing, my adrenaline have gone to slp so i shall go slp too! night kids and try pilates!

Grown up Christmas List - Amy Grant
Do you remember me? I sat upon your knee.
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies.
Well, I'm all grown up now, But still need help somehow.
I'm not a child but my heart still can dream.
So here's my lifelong wish, My grown-up christmas list
Not for myself, but for a world in need
No more lives torn apart, And wars would never start,
And time would heal all hearts. Ev'ry one would have a friend
That right would always win, And love would never end
This is my grown-up christmas list
As children we believed, The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely wrapped beneath the tree.
Well, heaven surely knows That packages and bows
Can never heal a hurting human soul.
No more lives torn apart, And wars would never start,
And time would heal all hearts. Ev'ry one would have a friend
That right would always win, And love would never end
This is my grown-up christmas list
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth?
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
There'd be
No more lives torn apart, And wars would never start,
And time would heal all hearts. Ev'ry one would have a friend
That right would always win, And love would never end
This is my grown-up christmas list,
This is my only lifelong wish
This is my Grown-up Christmas List
