HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEEHIANG AND EUNICE!! (:

Hope it’ll be fun~

“I have been asked many times why my son is not studying law as though it’s a given that he must read law. Some blame me for not encouraging him to be a lawyer while others accuse me of being indifferent. To me, it doesn’t really matter if he is a lawyer, a doctor or a salesman. He should grow up to be a good human being. A person who will have time and passion for those who are less fortunate than him. I want him to have a life where he has time to stop and smell the flowers. I want his life to be a journey of surprises and discovery, and not one where he is in a constant rush. Let him be anything he wants to be as long as he is happy. He should lead his life according to standards he sets for himself and he should not live to please others. He should have the discipline to resist evil and the same discipline not to overindulge.” — Subhas Anandan, The Best I Could

He sets an exemplary example for his son (: I’m sure his son is a chip of the old block; he’ll turn out to be an extremely successful man in the future.

Everyone who’s reading my blog, go buy this book from SG’s leading bookstores!! It’s a little costly ($29.95, my sister bought it!) but it’s worth reading and re-reading.

Bunny wins the record for sending me the shortest emails.

“*gulp* I just choked on biscuit”

and

“Very sleepy”

The thing is, she sent me these emails of her own accord.. Haha.

Haha to make my blog seem less solemn I shall post another entry (:

I’ve been a glutton this CNY, feasting on HEAVENLY melt-in-my-mouth kueh bangkits Tanny bought!! She and I polished off the entire container of it.. Haha we are glad no one else in the family likes kueh bangkits if not there will be many bloody catfights.

The other new year goody that I like this year is green pea cookies!!!! They are so wonderful and I can really see many green peas in my bowels. Sorry for being so straightforward and crude but this is to emphasize the number of green peas used in the making of these cookies!

F A T is apt enough to describe myself. I’m just short of
Oh wells it’s good to be fat I guess. At least my bones won’t break if I fall or something since I have that many fatty tissues within me. Fat people are lucky too, just like pigs!! Some sort of consolation this is huh.

So relatives I’d not met before mistook me for being the eldest in the family, what else is new? ): See how being fat does injustice to me! Size matters! Haha and it seems like size translates to age in my case.. Nvm, I like to be seen as mature for my age (:

Even with the economic downturn, my relatives are still relatively (relatively relatives hahaha) generous with how much moolah they slot into their red packets for me (: In fact, my angpau haul this
year is better than that of last year’s. All the money will go into my bank account to squeeze as much interest it can out of the bank!
Perhaps if my bank account is interested in the bank, it will give it a higher rate of interest?

My pillow is becoming hard for some warped reason!! And these days I’d rather sleep on the floor than the bed cos the floor suddenly seems so inviting. So why am I complaining that my pillow is turning into a rock when the floor is much harder in terms of surface?!

Strange enough, I feel strangely strange.

I was blogging halfway until my dad wanted to use the computer and I decided to delete the previous draft since it didn’t quite make sense anyway.

Your superiority complex irks me, I don’t know if you are behaving the way you are because of your insecurities or that you are just plain air-headed.

“But who am I to judge you on what you say or do” – Sometimes when we touch by Dan Hill.

I have never been so cheesed off by anyone else. Don’t worry, I will not let you get the better of me. You have merely ruffled few of my many feathers (:

And no, this isn’t just a one-off incident, if you were wondering.

And the best thing is, you will never guess that I’m actually referring to you. Yes, it’s you!

It’s probably time to up the sensitivity-o-meter, darling.

I don’t usually show my displeasure like this. Maybe this calls for a celebration since history is made? Haha.

Sam: HI SAMMM you should be in Melbourne by now!! Take care over there, hug more koalas and eat more nougats! All the best yeah? (: April’s just around the corner so hang in there! You’ll get to see Spots real soon (:

How soon is “soon”?

Grahhhhh, just yesterday, I looked at next thursday’s timetable instead of yesterday’s.. -.-

AND I woke up at 6.55 TODAY..!!! i.e. overslept! I have never overslept for school in my entire life, so this is definitely blog-worthy. Thanks Samtan for smsing me this morning!! Haha I leapt off my bed after reading your sms. I managed to brush my teeth, wash my face, pee, change clothes, grab 6 oranges, stuff things into my bag and wear shoes in 10 minutes. I was as frantic as a fry getting deep fried. Fortunately I still managed to reach “on time” (: And thankfully, my mother left the house earlier than me!! If not she would be screaming at me and I probably would have died of a panic attack.

Let tomorrow be smooth-sailing please!

PS I agree heartily with Joy’s blog post on CNY being a sweaty affair in HC today!! Joy, I think I perspire more easily than you!! We can be ’sweaters’ together HAHA (:

Thanks, but no thanks.

First day of school was alright I guess (:

I feel like I’m back in primary school ‘cos I’m overly concerned with the state of my uniform. In primary school I was anal about making the pleats of my pinafore straight and tidy, and now I’ve to make sure the skirt and the shirt are in alignment, if you get what I mean.

Sigh, bad mood.
