whoopa!
for the new year i was actually planning to make myself sleep before midnight and wakeup at 9 so i have ample time to get some work done before i get to school.so i tested tt out last week and guess what? IT FAILED. of course it did. everynight (ok almost.) i went to bed before midnight but i couldnt fall asleep! i'd end up tossing and turning till its way past midnight before i fall into unrelaxed slumber, periodically waking up every 2hrs or so, feeling super awake at ard 630 in e morning and when i fall back to slp, i'll slp past 9. in my defense, i DID try and will still continue trying. shall not be ambitious and make bedtime 1230am. gotta start realistically eh?
anyways, had yf orientation on saturday and its been such a long time since i had mass dance man! still remembered the last time we danced to oh! carol. that was eons ago when the old batch was still around. now they've all left, gotten married and spawn many babies but here i am, still in yf dancing to jitterbug. how beautiful. =) thought the best thing about saturday was dinner. truckload of us set off to tiongbahru market and twas proven to be an excellent choice. enough seats to accomodate our small army and enough food selection to satisfy all of us. but most of us ended up at the western stall cos some of them wanted to hear the sleek guy call every guy yandao and every girl mei nu. it was super hilarious to see everyone give the knowing look but no one dared to laugh out loud. so if you're looking for a boost in morale, ego and self-worth, take a trip down to tiongbahru market and you might just get a dose of what you need! oh yes! through dinner i've also learnt that nincompoop is really a word! always thought that its just a british sounding made-up word but boy was i wrong. according to the american heritage dictionary, it is defined as:
NOUN: A silly, foolish, or stupid person. nincompoopery. how cool is that! i was highly amused by it. hahaha. all in all, though we left the place smelling like barbeque ourselves, i can confidently say we all had a fantastically fantastic time. woot! we love jmyf and we cannot hide! muahaha.
on a side note, you know your kids have grown up and can fend for themselves when you've decided on a roadtrip up to ipoh and you only tell them 2days in advance without highlighting the fact that you'll actually be gone for 3 whole days. you dont provide emergency cash, theres not much food in the fridge or canned stuff in the cupboards. but its okay man, all is cool. and how do i know all that? cos my parents just took off this morning leaving me incredulous. at least the hongs got chicken! stranded.
i feel stranded. i need food!
"its been almost 2 years since that faithful maundy thursday i made u cry", she said. and i laughed.
