goodbye 2007
haven't really had time to blog ah.. been so busy!!
seriously, this is the first time in my life.. to be in such a scenario..... where i go out every. single. day!!
its... tiring. haha, but then again, i really can't help it. my current 'home' is not a very comfortable one. not that my sis ill treats me or anything.. but with 8 ppl living under the same roof, it really is CRAMPED. the only time i have some quiet/peaceful time for myself is in the evening, when the kids are alseep. of which i spend them playing more online games.. and end up sleeping late, but waking up early because the kids are up and they make the environment too noisy to sleep.
you see why i get more tired over each passing day!? @_@"
after meeting so many contractors only one quote came back.. still waiting for the rest and i'm just alil too lazy to call and chase the rest. i'm sure they're in holiday mood too.. haiz, don't wanna be a pain in the ass mah.. *prays for them to be more zi dong*
here's a funny dinner scenario that happened yesterday..
mom: haiy, later got prawns! you don't peel no need to eat liao la
me: eh? they never peel for us meh?
cousin: haha, you wish la
me: then i don't eat lor...
*waitress serve everyone prawns*
me: *looks at prawns.. and takes chopstick and spoon*
me: *disects the prawn head from the body*
me: *suck prawn head*
me: *proceeds to chop prawn legs with spoon*
by this time, all my family have eaten at least 2 prawns and are shelling the third with their hands.
cousin: you're not going to use your hands are you?
me: yea, i'm not going to dirty my hands. in any case, i'll be just as slow anyway
and as the last leg of that prawn was chopped off.... it flew to the floor.
me: *stunned*
me: *checks to see if anyone saw*
me: *relieved that there wasnt and kicks the half prawn under the table as naturally as possible*
me: *proceed to start on 2nd prawn*
sis: *finished eating her share already and notice i still haven't* ayah, you so slow let me help you
mom: *also finished* need help?
me: thanks ah ~~ hehehe =D
and thus i managed to eat my prawns~~
20mins later
stacia: eeee!!!! how come got half prawn under the table!!
jayna: *steps away*
me: *looks away*
haa.... ^-^
budden the scary thing tht followed another 20mins later. my sis went to the restroom and fainted inside. it was really scary... and i kept having thoughts that i might lose my sis. even the kids got scared.. especially jayna. it took quite some effort to get to her cos she started withdrawing hersef and crying. thank god that everything is alright now, and my sis seems okay too. though we're still not sure why she fainted or what really caused it, mom insist that she's just stressed. which is true la.. with her work.. and the kids starting school soon, the incopetent maid.. the trouble of changing a new maid.. renovating my new house..
i hope 2008 will be a good year. not only for me and my family, but to all my friends as well. maybe i should start setting some new year resolutions.. mmm...

somewhere over the rainbow
why is my schedule always so packed?
its a festive season now but i don't feel all that happy at all.. stupid house.. stupid contractors.. stupid me.
i just want to forget them all.
suddenly i miss life with ash in aus.. things were just so simple.. so i'm thankful i have a sis.. i'm glad that she talks to me and i can tell her my problems.. though we both know some things will just be the way they are.. its sad how our conversations just hangs in the air because of such issues...
life is just like that.. eh?
feelig emotional for no reason.. maybe steve's friend contributed.. i hate people with bad attitude.. sigh.. can't wait to see steve, mos n meels on friday.. hopefully none of the contractors will play a prank on me again.. is bad enough they took away my weds and thurs.. which means i can't send leigh off to india at the airport.. argh....
so tired.. its christmas eve.. merry christmas everyone~
someday... i wanna have a white christmas...
haha, i'll be so wierd meeting emily and her friends who all want to "see" me. wth... never see girl before ah... haha.. oops.. alex is such an "auntie killer".. seriously think he can be a xiao bai lian.. den don't have to work so hard to be with me mah... don't understand....
have to face em sooner or later la.. though its really unexpected to be spending christmas eve with them.. play games and drink alcohol is all good.. i just hope they don't pull me into a game of mahjong. sure become cabbage for them to chop.. lol..
feeling tired physically yet i can't bring myself to bed either.. feel like falling sick..
tamagochi also growing old ler...
le sigh..

too much for comfort
back to the topic on my new house.. again i stress... i don't like it. :(
its far from my friends.
its inconvenient.
it overlooks a canal.. or should i say, a big DRAIN.
the ventilation is null.
its dirty and smelly. (this i'm hoping will be curbed after renovating)
what good about that place?
n o t h i n g
*sigh*
my mom gave me the impression that she liked the house, so to me, so long as she's happy, anything goes. and now, SOMEHOW, when me and my sis went to see it yesterday with her... we didn't give very positive comments about it and she started pointing fingers all at my dad. that the house was his idea, that the location and EVERYTHING is all his fault.
wth?
so tired and sick of that attitude of hers. i've grown to ignore her but now my dad's just struggling. just moments ago he was telling me how he wanted to go and die...
is it me.. why are guys all saying such stuff!?
i don't know how to resolve this tension. i'm just trying to focus on how to renovate the place and make my new home live-able. we might move again. though after renovating i'm sure i'll start to live with the place.. afterall, all i need is a room to myself.. everything outside can just stay outside... i've grown fine on my own. my parents havent taught me any values. for all i know, i think i'm a better person without their "values".
sigh, IMM, here i come...

see my money fly~~~ T_T

last day in kangaroo land
isn't it ironic how i've been here for 5 months and i haven't seen a kangaroo? mm..
watched one episode of saiunkoku monogatari under nick's recommendation and i've been addicted.. yep.. so good that i've actually cast sailormoon aside. haha.. now i'm just 10 episodes away from the end of the first season! the plot is pretty good.. the guys are all sooooo handsome.. and its alittle typical that they are all falling for the same girl. still i do like the lead girl. really impressed by her character and spirit..
i'm now less than 12 hours away from reaching singapore. theres so many things i got to do once i'm back, so many things i want to do. man.. the 1st week of my return schedule is already packed! welcome back old life..

coming back
oops, been too long since i blogged... again.
been too busy playing since exams are over.. :D
well theres the rather rushed trip to melbourne the day after the last day of my papers.. where i got to meet up with meels and her friends, ash's friends and omg all the shopping and food... haha..
and then there's the trip to movieworld after ash n ting jun got back from allybeach. there's hundreds of pics, but uploading them is too painful. so sorry =x
besides... i think i put on weight, especially from the melb trip..
thus thus.. when ash is out, i have been playing more. was telling kelsy and chew how its easy to tell if ash is at home. if she is, i'll be cooking. if she isn't, i'll be eating instant noodles~
mm, some updates..
not playing audition US. damned.. ip kena blocked!!! they should like, put it all over the nexon website that its for north americans only la!? i download, install already, then see in the PATCHER that its for north americans only. basket.... at least, thank goodness aiko's download fail.. if not i'll feel so bad. eat 1 gb of my quota bad enough.. eat hers also i will... be so slayed by her.. *shudders* lol..
yes.. playing flyff.. gosh.. ling is psykeeper alr... x_x
audisea storymode... stuck x_x"
ro private server.. not playing anymore since nick n aiko stop too.. nothing to do much inside anyways.. seeing the guild war inside, always reminds me of ulat and tickle wickle.. maybe i'll buy the installation cd.. hope its $2.50... heh
didn't get in grandchase close beta, but its now open anyways~ though i can't download because of reasons beyond me.. will try again when i get back to singapore..
also have got nostale in my com... and dota!? hahaa... sam pangseh me... can someone teach me how to play dota... if only steve wasn' in the army....
its pretty fast.. now that exams are over (and i even got my results back) it wasn't too bad.. but looking at it, i'll really need to work very hard to get my gpa to 5.5.. to qualify for honors. its alil dumb.. for masters, u need a gpa of 4.5 which i qualify since mine is 4.75. so.... i can skip honors and do masters hor? lol... no money... ugh... have no more time now.. so i'll be going with doing events management as my major. which means now, i can't qualify for PR. wonder how my mom will react to this... sigh. i'm rather half hearted.. but theres no denying that the pay here is just too attractive. and i'm talking about more than double the pay you can achieve in singapore. shall think about it more in sg.
which reminds me... i have barely packed... ugh..
its wierd, like, how in less than 3 days, i'll be back in singapore. there goes my freedom to do whatever i liked. my big bed. but also, my screwy connection! and i don't have to worry about download quotas... ok, pros and cons...
then theres the strange feeling of going back and seeing alex. he's so excited, he cut his hair 3 times... o_o" i so can't imagine what he looks like now. then when i was describing the style to ash, she brought up that it somehow... coincides with jx's hairstyle. Which is really quite hilarious to suddenly know of a person whose style fit the description.. and it was somewhat comforting cos jx's hairstyle ain't that bad.. it does suit him. lol, cross my fingers.
its uncanny there's such similiarities between ash and my bf. i hope i have not influenced her in any way.. looking at how both our relationship are going.. the reactions and how till now, we still seem "stuck". and we're both returning to singapore unsure of whats gonna happen. its really something that just spins in our head.
nick is like.. telling me to give him notice if i'm gonna pull out any "stunt" while he's visiting sg the coming friday. =s i've been broading over my relationship for so long, its driving me nuts. somehow being in aus actuallys becomes a relief that i don't have to face it. but to a certain extent its really not as bad as it seems when i'm now back to talking terms with alex. sigh.
though i still wouldn't rule out jumping at every opportunity to break up, me and ash concluded that while we're back, i think the guys will be doing everything they can to keep us happy. hmm. no point pondering further.. see how it goes when i'm back.. -_-
anyways, i'm rather excited about going back n seeing my friends =3
not to mention borrowing ling's lolita dress~ though nick say it looks like maid -_-" cosplay cosplay cosplay~~~ sad that we won't be neighbours anymore... T_T
ekk... enough ramblings.. typed for too long already..
