MondayAndTuesday

Just woke up from a long and fitful sleep. I went home at 2 plus and slept all the way to 7 plus. That's how tired I was. Actually was planning to watch the volleyball tournament but no 'kaki' to accompany me. Asked GB what he was going to do after the tournament; as usual, our 'obsessive' GB said, "Training lor." Heesh.. no life. So I decided to go home. Plus I felt light-headed. Only ate two paus and that was already 2 plus in the afternoon.

The others either had meeting, studying or printing papers. So off I went home to my humble abode, played with An-An for a while and slept. Haven't done any work yet. I feel so contented now. Lol.. I'm in dreamland.

Yesterday, I had an upsetting day. And you know why I said so? Because I had dinner and went home late when it was only a Monday night! I was supposed to watch my girls yesterday but due to 'unforseen circumstances', I had a 'convention'! As they put it, if there is no notification, that means 'convention' is on! What the hell?!?! I actually checked the email since Saturday to confirm that there was no 'convention'. In fact, I actually checked again on Monday morning. What spurred me on yesterday was meeting my girls and cheered them during the tournament! During the whole 'convention', I kept looking at my watch and messaged my Yo-Bo. The convention finally ended at 5 plus. By that time, my girls had ended the match and they won! I'm so proud of them. And sad too. To miss them during their glorious moment. When I called the girls during their busride home, I wished I was there. When they said they missed me, I wanted to cry. Haiz.. I miss them badly. And yet, I couldn't even make it for their tournament.

Had dinner with Yo-Bo, PinkMonkie and GB. Was to upset to go home and do work. Went home pretty late. Haiz.. I noticed something about myself; when I'm upset, I tend to be delusional. In this case, having dinner at Tampines and went home late on Monday night. Insane!

By the way, my rashes are lessening, thank you very much. Unfortunately, the pills to prevent the itch cause drowsiness and seriously, every night when I took it, I had an uneventful sleep. To a point I'm still drowsy when I woke up in the morning. Haiz.. don't know if I'm taking it tonight.

Another interesting point to blog is about my friend Zah and Nad. Lol.. They are having cold war. I know they are going to kill me. Again. For blogging about them. But seriously my dearest friends, we've been friends since seondary one. This year, all of us are going to be 31 soon. Forgive and forget le.. Each of us has a different meanings of life. Even though sometimes we mean well, others might not feel the same way.

One last thing to blog before I take my bath, I just found out from two of my current Goonies that their mothers are 32 and 34 years old. Told them I was 31 when they told me their mothers' ages. I was dumfounded! You work out the Maths. I lose ler..

TisGoodIt'sFriday!!!

I AM SO GLAD IT'S A BLOODY FRIDAY!!!

Yipee.............................

Have been waiting for this day since Monday. Lol.. that's how desperate I am. Sometimes I wonder if I should stop being a Potter. I'm physically and mentally burnt up with fatigue. I wish I am still studying. Yup.. still studying. Those were the days when my abysmal results didn't affect anybody but myself. Now, if I were to stop working, I think I wouldn't live comfortably as I am living today. Haiz.. there's always a price to pay. All I need is a Brunei prince or an Indonesian tycoon to take a fancy of me and sweep me off my feet. And I will live happily ever after. Lol..

Jokes aside, I'm proud to say that my cousin, Syasya, did pretty well for her 'O' Level. Well done! She scored 14 for 6 subjects and 11 for 5 subjects. But she didnt' get to beat me! Lol.. I still did better! Lol..

My family always regards education as the utmost importance. When I was young, my mum used to tell me that without education, people, even your own family, will look down on you. My maternal grandmother's side (her brothers) used to be quite well-to-do. My grandmother had 10 children and were quite poor. Her brothers' family used to looked down at her family and during Hari Raya, they kind of ostracized my grndmother's family. My mum had to stop studying after her 'O' Levels because my grandfather passed away of heart attack. I guess, that's why she kept harping on me and my sister to do well.

An ex-Goonie of mine once asked me this; between money and education, which one would I choose. I told him education. He chose money. It's the way we were brought up. And that's how we make our decision. For me, no matter how rich I am, , life would not be fulfilling without knowledge. It's just like an empty body which is beautifully corrected.

I used to want people to think the way I think. But being a Potter teaches me that not everything I think is the right way of life. As long as you believe in what you do, that 's what is important.

Haiz.. I digress again. Being 31 makes one tends to ramble without a period.

Looking forward to this evening. Gathering of the Potters for P.H.Y.S.I.C's and LaneigeQueen's birthday bash.

And meeting my Baobeis on the eve of CNY.

I miss them soooooooooooo much!!!

Fighting!!!

StoopidRash

I'm having severe rashes.

In the pursuit of eternal youth and beauty, I think I had consumed something that I am allergic with; seafood. I had been consuming this collagen stuff so that my face can remain radiant and perky despite being over 30. I think, after a few days, I had these rashes. I thought I had eaten too much prawn or some other seafood. So, I avoided them. Vain as I am, I continued drinking the bottles of collagen. But the rashes persisted. In fact, it got worse. I can even audition for a role as Sun Wukong. Gracious!

PinkMonkie and P.H.Y.S.I.C.S told me to lay off that collagen stuff and see if I were really allergic to it. I had checked the ingredient; it contained some shark stuff. Haiz.. PinkMonkie said shark is still considered under seafood. How lame can I be?

Thankfully, the rashes do not spread to my face. Goodness.. I will DIE if my face is severely disfigured by red spots!!!

I've decided to visit the doctor either today or tomorrow. I think I need some antibiotics. What a waste of money...

LappieAndBaobeis

I got myself a new lappie. Petite. And chio. Just like me.

Alright.. stop puking. Or else you'll spend the rest of your day cleaning up the mess.

Anyway, I got myself a new lappie since my old one has 'cancer'. This is a term coined by me when I asked the guy who repaired my old laptop if the rest of the functions of my old laptop will be affected since the motherboard (Gosh.. like a spaceship, huh?) is spoilt.

Err.. super long sentence. But being a laptop idiot (but not an IT idiot!!!), this is how I comprehend the guy's explanation. The guy laughed on the phone when I asked him if it was like 'cancer'. And he said, "Yeah, something like that." See.. I translated it in layman's term.

My life is quite smooth sailing ever since I moved to a new environment. Sans the stoopid 'wantan mee' calling and Ahjumma's irksome presence despite being so far away from her, my life is fine. I miss my ex-Potters and my Baobeis dearly. And my netballers.

My new activity is super humdrum. I could actually complete my work while waiting it to end. When I was in netball, I actually had to run around or sat down to watch my girls play. And screamed and shouted. And jumped and laughed. But with my new activity, I just sat down and did my own work. Hmm.. must give it some time. Hopefully, it'll be more exciting.

Went out with my Baobeis on the eve of 2008. For the first time in my life, I played pool. Lol.. The boys were teaching me about angles and were very encouraging. Supposed to watch the firework and went all the way to Marina Bay. But it was too dark and muddy. Poor Emo Guy had his sneakers soaked in mud when he volunteered to explore the place. We ended up sitting at the carpark and ate the tidbits because there was nothing to do. The arcade and bowling alley was closed (as in closed down!). Oh, yeah.. we actually walked from the MRT all the way to Marina Bay. Lol.. my boys were cussing and swearing! Heesh.. lame la them.

By the time that we realised we couldn't find any spot to watch the firework, everyone was scolding Mr Tay for his poor idea. Poor Mr Tay. Personally, I thought his idea was good but unfortunately, not the logistics.

We ended up in Orchard watching Body#19. Please don't watch it. Sucks big time..

But I had a great time with my Baobeis. Last stop, Jalan Kayu. By that time, which was 6 plus in the morning, my mum called me up to check on me. Haiz.. So, I had to rush home.

Thanks, Baobeis. For the good New Year. :)

OnePhoneCallAndTwoWins

I had a good day today.

Until I received a call. Damn.. Ahjumma really made me so incensed and upset today. Called P.H.Y.S.I.C.S to complain to her. Felt slightly better. But seriously, my day was spoilt. Even after an absence of about 3 weeks, she still can spoil my day.

My plan was to go home straight after work but I need friends' company to rejuvenate me. P.H.Y.S.I.C.S's mum cooked for dinner so she couldn't have dinner with me. I managed to get PinkMonkie and planned to meet her for dinner. Tried to get GB but that bugger turned his handphone on silent mode and only realised that when he was home. But must give him some credit. At least he drove all the way to Hougang to meet us for dinner. Gamsahamnida, the two of you. And gamsahamnida, P.H.Y.S.I.C.S, for listening to my complaint again for the umpteenth time.

By the way, my netballers did well. So proud and happy for them. Too bad I couldn't attend both matches. Come on, girls! Continue the hardwork! Fighting!!!

MyNewLappieAspire2920Z

I got myself a new laptop!

Small and petite. Just like me.

GB got himself a new camera. Quite chio. But not as chio as my laptop. :p

DisorganisedMeetings

Where am I now? In school, waiting for another ad-hoc meeting to begin @1430. Next meeting is @1500; some Cockpit stuff. Though I am satisfied with the new environment (sans the unisex toilet!!!), I just wish that the meetings would be more well-planned because there are so many other things I would like to do.

1. My markings
2. Meet my Baobeis
3. Meet my ex-Potters
4. Watch my netballers play for the tournaments

During assembly, my new Institution invited the SAF Music Ensemble (is that their name???) to perform. All the NS boys were playing Chinese instruments. Not bad. But one song caught my attention; Dong Hua. Waaa.. love this song. I always told my ex-Potters to sing during karaoke session. Besides that, I remembered my Dear-Dear and Mr Tay sang that for me, after much coercion. Lol..

Oh, dear! 1430.. Haiz.. time for meeting. Will be back to continue my life story!

Fighting!

Decision

For the first time in 2008, I cried.

I wish to write all the happy things that I did before 2007 ended but somehow, something happened and I wish I have the power to make things different.

Wish you all the best then. Your future plan seems very convincing and well-thought out. But it's a pity. With your intelligence and resilience, I've always thought you will do well this year. But whichever path you take, I will support your decision. Fighting!
