The Chocolate Donut
Saturday, May 31, 2008

Niron got me to read one of his poems and i got a bit inspired in the shower after my donut...
so here goes nothing!

‘Half!’ I bargained
and so I tore
my chocolate donut.
my junkfood rights.

but no,
I was greedy.
and now I sit,
with choc-lined nails
and a looming belch


okay false hopes held high though, apparently it's not even understandable..niron said ah that's good but what does it mean...at least joy laughed! okay back to watching Friends....


whoppieee!

driving sucked today...
Monday, May 26, 2008

Driving was horrible today. on the bus ride home, i was wondering whether i should be resigned to be the passenger and not the one behind the wheel. or would it always be public transport my whole life...

it seems like the more lessons i take, the worst i become. or maybe i just don't really care anymore..i don't know )):

have been taking lifts from soo many people in the past 2 weeks. i feel as if i owe everyone a whole load for getting me home safely all the time. saturday was the bomb, had car rides from weiqi's boyfriend, greg and alex all in a single night.

but i wanna be able to drive my future husband back from the airport, and of coz my kids to sch and to their ballet and piano lessons (haaa fulfil my taitai ambition) and for a change, my dad! so must buck up maan...

Year end hols '07 part cinq
and so jan came around and suddenly it was 2008. and i always have this urge to sew at the start of the year. i've no idea why...maybe it's coz spotlight always have their sale at the start of the year as well..

cloth-buying is like this really competitive task. you finger this particular pattern of cloth thinking to yourself whether it's nice, and when you see another person looking at the same piece of cloth, you'd just grab the whole roll of it. i was like walking everywhere and tripping over all the rolls of cloth. they were pretty heavy mind you!

my pretty cloth!! bitbit wouldn't leave them alone..kept sniffing and scratching them...


so i sewed 3 bags in total before getting tired of sewing...


i like my bags to have pretty insides.


sewed this for my sis' birthday. this was when it's still nicely pressed.


after abusing by the bee. still in pretty good shape laeeee! pleats still intact wor...


the first bag i sewed. wasn't a very good design..coz the straps were too thin...


pretty inside again..can you see the nice pockets!!


okay i really like stuff to have pretty insides. if you showed me two pairs of shoes that looks identical except one has a really pretty lining. i wouldn't mind paying more to get that pair.

haaa i hope it means that i'm not a superficial person..you know like i matter what's inside as well...okayyy moving on....

the start of many supperss with 1903

the guys acting all garang and stuff...think we were waiting for mike and sab in the other car..


at the other end of the lens (:


we headed to the airport after supper to send yijie and jeff off..

haa..kissy kissy jaehee and mike...


this is hilarious man. haa..thank god it was 3am and there weren't many people around.


okayyy i think our disgusted faces explains it all..





and that was the previous hols. i'm starting work tomorrow, not really looking forward to it since it means waking up early after a spiel of waking up after noon. and my elbow bone hurts from spending too much time in front of the computer. whooop it's 2am...time to head to bed, i don't want a repeat of falling asleep at work again!

Year end hols '07 part quatre -christmas!-
the christmas edition 07 post.

celebrated christmas with the pharm ppl at maymay's place. her golden retriever is such a mild and obedient girl..but i was really on cloud nine since it was always my childhood dream to have a golden retriever. but me wants a labrador now..one with a silky brown coat..sweet!

anyways it was a warm and cozy get-together coz it was potluck affair. so we all sat together on her front porch in the evening breeze, eating and play taboo afterwards.


***

christmas day was spent with maymay and cherie at the christmas service. it was a really beautiful sight when they turned off all the lights. and everybody was given candles and the flame was passed on slowly, person to person...


the usual gathering with the relatives on my dad's side.

***

class gathering with 1903 at mel's...


minzhen!!! haven't seen that woman for soo long..and she's changed quite abit i gotta say..

FIESTA 07!




AHMAAAAD!

haha cover your nostrils!!

the brothers who look so scarily alike that derrick talked to the younger one for weeks, thinking he was the older one. ahaaa..





****

so far the hols has been pretty good to me..but i want more time home. used to want to go out all the time in the past, but i guess preferences change. all i want to do is be home with my laptop and cranberry juice.

went to kelvin lim's after my driving lesson today and we met jaehee for Indiana Jones at Vivo!

the storyline is pretty crappy to me since it included aliens..yeah huh?! but a few parts of the movie made me go WOWEEE..yay indyy! since i'm not a sucker for blockbuster hits, i was pleasantly surprised by the movie. i say go catch it!

went home and bernice had to spoil my day by telling me bout her day......

well it's because we temp at this swanky oil co. when the receptionist there needs to take the day off..thing is it's like some model factory there. most of the ppl there are GORGEOUS.

and we sorta have fight-offs over who we think the hottest guy there is.

hers dubbed the pantry-guy because he sits near the pantry HAAA! mine's just called john lim (bottom left, but see what i mean..the gal's hot as well..) because that's his name and it's so wrong for a hot guy to have such a blah name.


and she had to tell me all the unglam stuff about this guy. like how he practises his 'golf swing' in the lift lobby just outside the receptionist area because he thinks nobody is watching. and how he would cheapskate-ly ask for free postage stamps for his mail.

and today she HAPPILY told me that he was practising his 'golf-swing' in the lift lobby AGAIN. and he was stretching and stuff...sigh!

anyways 'golf-swing' is in inverted commas because we're not sure what it is....he just swings his hands really dramatically as shown to me gleefully by bernice! ugh...
