going malaysia next week so not gonna have a chance to blog so i thought i had better blog today to make up for it. now that's an illogical logic cos i usually can go thru the week w/o blog entries. perhaps if i go outta the country more often, my dear blog readers wld hv more blog entries to read ^_^
today was a great day. this weekend, i supposed to mug like siao to make up for 2 weeks of not doing any work. i had a premonition i wont lol, how right i was =(. ANYWAY, still a great weekend. woke up to my usual "good morning" sms ^_^. played like 1 or 2 hrs of FFX, had lunch. then helped mom make/bake those yummy oozing chocolate pudding thingys (yucui would be excited lol). half the day gone..
next, we went to chinatown! had desert at the smith street hawker! same as the one i had on friday lol. honeydew sago! it totally rocks! n so freaking cheap - $1. has real honeydew shreds! yeah. we walk chinatown at least once every year. took the same route as me n friends took on friday.. now kinda in CNY mood =D.. soaked in the atmosphere, looking at what new gadgets they've come up with this year. it's really not as crowded as pervious year... i remember we were practically shuffling along, and really had to push our way thru.boy was it chocked full of ppl. but today, surprisingly not. it was crowded, but not till that kinda crowded. there was space to walk. i didnt have to brush by sweaty ppl XP.
new stuff this year: WONDRERFOLD - used to fold ur clothes. every smart thingy. the promoter was very good! we bought one haha. this was this towel thingy specially for drying your hair too. ie some ppl kind twist the towel? nevermind ^^;;. also lots of stalls selling cuttlefish. they flatten(with machines not unlike those used to make sugarcane juice) n bbq it on the spot. metal/wire work comman too. those metal wire book marks. the bicycle was cute, motorbike cool =). oso a stall that makes customised carplates =) cute.
rounded up the day with prata! along upper thomson there (near thomson plaza) we forgoed the one we usually patronised cos they suck now.. went for Prata King ("the first branch of the famously prata shop in jalan kayu!" shouts the banner.. wherever that is ^^; ) yup. it was good =D
it felt so family day-ish! yup. today was great.
friday rocked too =D i ponned maths tutorial =S no particular reason. well, actually it was cos on thursday night, i was determined to finish up the maths tutorial but didnt due to unplanned circumstances. actually dad got a new phone n i was tinkering with it's built-in camera.. so i decided to skip maths cos i didnt do homework. kinda silly looking back.... i sleep in the lib for that hour...... later at around 4 when i was reaching tj, ms teng called. she said she wanted to make sure i was safe.. cos i didnt turn up for lesson she thought something may hv happened to me. so nice of her.. felt really bad then.
because i ponned china studies too (gosh... i sound like such a bad student!)(china studies is not tested. it's the last period and there's an hr's break in between that n the pervious lesson so no way i'll wait for it), i ended early. hung out wif classmates(janet, alison, xi xuan). they wanted to j8.. at first i didnt wan go but one of them turned out to be someone-i-know's ex and she wanted to know more abt what he thought of her so i got kinda dragged along lol..
j8 has changed alot!i was very tired n sleepy n zombified that day..wasnt in a socialising mood, esp with ppl i wasnt totally comfy with yet so kinda wish i wasnt with them. not that they werent good company; they're great ppl, jus i wasnt in the mood..besides i was broke n i had going out broke. i rather not look at stuff totally when i know i wont hv the cash to buy it. but it was ok lah overall =)
was supposed to go TJ for the CNY carnival (went there more to meet up with friends la) with huilin( <--- very imp. huilin knew the way. lol) n cui but i was still in j8 at around the time i supposed they wld set out for TJ so i decided to go from j8 rather den returning to ny (thus making them wait for me) den to tj. quite is quite brave considering i didnt know the way lol ^^;; but it wasnt so bad lah, with the guide i had ^_^ thank you.
from the looks of tj(outside of it), one cldnt tell they've a carnival going on lol. but it was quite rei nao la =) looked quite big too. until i went round all the stall in like 10/15min or less lol...
i was there from around 4 n mfen n cui n gang came only at 5.30 -_- lol i cld hv went back NY but anyway time spent at tj b4 they came was enjoyable =)
i feel kinda bad at my flat downright "no"s to ppl promoting their stalls.. shld hv been more polite =S
anyway, (the concrete giant steps that serve as) seats around the track, it's so nice n breezy there!!!
later, cui, mfen, sinyee, nianya, karen, tina, sharon, huilin, geraldine and me went to chinatown! it wasnt planned (well at least i didnt know abt it lol).. lol i rememeber mfen saying how planning for an outing's so difficult while w/o planning, going on an outing's easier lol.. had dinner at smith street's hawker center.. by the time we were done, it was 9!
ok. it's 3.13am now. i need sleep. crashin AJ tmr... yet another uncompleted entry. lol. planned to blog thursday (jay + cui) and thinking aloud about NY vc AJ... perviously decided on NY but having 2nd thoughts after the points huilin brought up. i hope to blog more but me knowing myself, i prolly wont continue, as with the other entries ^^;;.. sorry abt cheating ur feelings again avril! but hey, still it's a very long blog entry as it is now ^_^
