picnic

yesterday night, dinner out with the fam. ended up at changi..having a late night picnic cum unplanned fishing. oh while we were at changi v, i bought a car sign which reads "warning! turtle driving do not horn" *lol* i thought it was cute..shall snap a picture of it and post it here soon ok. i wasted time playing my all time favourite game on my dad's pda, jawbreakers!

..and someone just had to take a shot

today was dateful! 50cents mayo to ns exhibition to gift seeking to impulse shopping to choc ice cream to picture taking to parallel parking to honda civic 1.8 to ecp to $700 thinkpad notebook to teh tarik to ice milo to chicken & beef kebab to "i'll top up cash card for you" to PIE, no TPE to freshly fried fries & lastly to junk boat *smiles*

oh, and i saw hafiz hanif at the ns exhibition..

sinful pleasures

headed down to arab street with the mom..wasn't planning on buying MY garments but oh look, im hooked! since i'm on this note, it reminds me of how-so-many-a-times i'm persuaded into purchasing stuffs you can say i don't really need. i bet we all had our fair share of those situations. its not all that bad but its for sure sinfully addictive! and then, there are times when you need ONLY one of a kind but your mind is telling you its OK to have a variety of the same kind..talking about "gluttony"?

this reminds me..it somehow irks me the idea of trying to replicate someone else. i'm sure the person being replicated doesn't feel "honoured" being part of a walking curtain with you around. well, unless there is certain occasions which calls for it (take hari raya for instance). its not complimenting to keep asking others to buy you the same exact piece of everything that they have..oh and worst still, asking someone to forgo what she has JUST to accomodate YOUR liking to HAVE her possessions.

some people..and their excuses to veil their true facade..

crying onions

yes! managed to tidy up my room a little bit yesterday. everything was super rusty and dusty due to the lift upgrading project. anws, i hope the lifts will be up soon! all the more encouraging to NOT exercise and be lazy *grins* today i am still rotting at home. amazingly i accomplished cutting more than 20 onions without tearing! people may role their eyes at this accomplishment of mine..but hey, there are still girls these days who can't even cut AN onion without tearing like their cat just died.

3 more days to go!

emotional affairs

i wasn't planning on blogging today but i'm afraid i might lose my thoughts if i dally it..

i was listening to the radio the other day. and so the deejays were discussing on the topic of emotional affairs. they gathered it to be a reciprocated love between 2 forbidden lovers [since 1 or both parties have a spouse back home].

coincidentally, i just watched a movie on tv, relating to a cheating and adulterous wife..she hooked up with her colleague and her husband's best friend for different [and all the wrong] reasons. but she was made to be portrayed like the victim of her own crime. thing is, when her husband found out, he was truly forgiving.

thinking about it, things like this do happen in reality. well, maybe the ending may differ. usually a painful divorce is expected rather than an ideal forgiving spouse i must say. but to me, that's not the issue. more so, i can't stop thinking why would someone do that to their faithful partners? maybe if the other party is adulterous too, then that would be a different matter altogether.
it's sad to think that love has been distorted and metamorphized into something ugly and wrong in this world..

but i believe true love will suffice to those who appreciates its fragility. lets hope we are one of those people. *smiles*

post exams

let me see..what have i been up to after the exams? recently i've bought cross-stitch DIY keychains. so yes, i've been passing the days by..cross-stitching. managed to complete 2 keychains in 2 days. i have no idea why i kept poking my finger with the needle eveytime i pull the needle back. now my finger feels prickly..

i have been home since the exams ended..well, with the exception of the last day of exams itself. i was craving western food..had a fulfilling meal [pun intended] thanks for the special company *smiles*. anyways, tuitions start again from today. after so long of taking a break from all my tutees..yes i'm back. ironically, their exams are around the corner while mine has just ended. but oh well, i think its pretty good that they don't clash. i don't think i can manage my exams and theirs all at the same time.

tomorrow will be a day out with the mom. i wonder what she's up to now..the night will be spent tutorin my lil brothers cum lil nuisance. oh, and lots of teevees..im sure.

ever realise how some people can spend their monies like they won't run out but some of us (maybe most) have to live with the reality that our savings are depleting by the day as we are withdrawing more than we can deposit? i'm broke.

barely 2 days after the exams and i'm feeling bored already. ntu & nus undergrads need to finish their exams quickly..i want to go out! but then again, i'm broke & fuel's empty.

the first

here i am..finally u can say? no particular aim in establishing this. perhaps i need a boulevard to pen my thoughts, share my bliss & express my woes..this thus, will be a fresh start. hopefully.
