HAPPY 2005 PEEPS!

so how did u all celebrate e new yr? =)

dis couple of yrs has been more of a family. got kid liao ma. how can go ciong n countdown rite? i nv reallie like pushing n squeezing too. oni went once to a countdown my whole life. tats for e millenium yr - 2000. so scary. =S e crowd was so overwhelming.

anyways, dis yr we had yet another bbq again. tats e 3rd in 1 wk. haa haa... i'm swearing off bbq food till next christmas at least.

woke up late today. wanted to go out wif dar in morning but it was raining horrendously. hmmm, is tat hw u spell it. oh, watever. *bleahz* so end up we din n regan stayed hme too. intended to send him to childcare for 1/2 day so we can some couple moments. hee...

dar went to gym wif jianglin while i stayed home to look after e monster. suppose to nap but refuse to slp. jumping on e bed like a monkey. he tried to smoke me too.

ok, tats a 1st. cannot imagine he rack his brain for how long before coming up wif dis ingenius excuse. haa haa... but too bad i noe him better than he does. lolz...

got ready to go over mom's hse at abt 5+pm to go imm giant to buy sme food. tink cheese sausages, bacon... yum yum. =9...

a mini accident happened. ah di was suppose to drive us dwn. he loves driving. so though mom objected violently but i say let him drive lor. hee...

who noes dis chap started to drove off when ah mei was trying to get into e car. n her foot got rolled over by e car. all of us start panicking coz ah mei was screaming away. ah di realise wat happen, froze for a while before reversing e car. n it went over her foot YET again. so her foot got squashed twice. =P

she was crying, i was trying hard not to luff, mom was yelling how dumb ah di was not to check all passengers on board, ah b was shouting tat he wan e tv in e car on, jianglin was trying to c wat happen n dar was stunned. it was reallie all aboard except dad whom went jogging.

end up, ah mei went into e hse to rest her foot, ah di say wan to accompany her n c how her foot is, mom say she is too distressed to go. so all of us happily climbed onboard started getting out of e car again.

luckily there were just sme tire marks n bruises. so after ah di rubbed sme medicated oil on it, her tears stopped flowing n we were on our way again except mom whom is still distressed. haa...

stopped by bt timah to buy sme satay 1st though.

e only photo we took for e whole day. was at giant already. made regan sat in e trolley though he was yelling tat he wan to push e trolley. keke...

din take much pics dis yr. muz rem nxt yr. den got tings to remind us abt e day ma hor.

after buying all e food we need (we din buy alot coz mom got most of it already), we went to pay. goodness, e Qs r like damn long lor. at least 15 ppl in front for every counter n almost all counters r opened smemre.

i tink we reallie suay. went to Q at dis trainee Q whose action was damn slow. n she even disappeared for a while apparently to chk sme food prices. when it was our turn, she was so rude n claim tat one of our food has no price tag. actually i can do without tat item, but she was so rude can.

so off she go to find e price tag n she took 10 mins to do it. fr e counter to e place i took tat packet of food and back is only like 3 mins at most? den e rest of e ppl in e Q was getting restless.

we complained to e supervisor whom was at e counter beside us n he activated another staff to assist. dis new guy tat helped was so much faster lor. they shld just get e ger do smeting else man like packing food. reallie slow until can. i Q-ed for like 30 mins at least. when all e rest of e counters Q seems to b moving damn fast. =(

anyways, got hme n off to do each of our delegated duty. haha... ah di n jianglin started fire, ah mei n me processed food. dar was famished so he eat n watched over regan whom is oso eating his dinner.

den nxt door uncle, smelled us bbq-ing in our backyard, gave us 5 fishes to bbq lor. but its like quite yucky. he says just bbq e whole fish den can eat liao. but we din try. we bbq-ed 2 for him back though hes out partying as usual. he v happening one ok dis uncle. tink last time he ciong sparks one. nw mayb niteclub. auntie linda's philosophy (his wife) is tat as long as he brings money hme, she dun care wat he do outside. shes younger than him by 10 yrs. got 2 pri sch kids.

i like just sitting rd e pit n chatting n bbq-ing. such a lovely feeling. ah di n ah mei was like grumbling tat they so nice stay at hme when they cld haf went partying. *bleahz* i oso ma. got invited to joanna's hse for a mini party. i oso din go ok! hee...

so bbq-ed till like 11.30pm den started packing up. had sme leftover food so played sme card games to clear it. haha... so furnee can.

e games we played was e same ones as christmas eve. will describe e games there. =)

din reallie countdown. coz i was upstairs toking to dar whom is playing computer games. but in e face of e disaster tat juz happen, i tink nothing much to b happy abt actually. *sighs* so sad. when i was having good food, tink there r thousands tat r homeless, hungry n cold.

dad oso remind us to keep it low-key. even e radio din count dwn but observe 1 min of silence.

went hme after cleaning up.

my new yr resolution for 2005 is "TO BE PUNCTUAL". haha... remind me ok?

i tink i'm reallie fat. *wails* look at me!!!

had taken e pic 2 wks back coz accompany mom go wedding dinner. i feel depressed everytime i c dis pic. thks to ah di. =(

e news abt e dis major earthquake is starting to sink into me n i feel so depressed over it.

just tink tat we r damn lucky to b situated where we r. otherwise i tink 1 tidal wave will kill us all. we r tat tiny.

its so scary. 1/3 of e dead r kids.

understand tat actually it can b avoided, juz tat men is too complacent n tinks it wld nv happen. after a earthquake, a tsunami'll hit land oni like at least 20 mins to 2 hrs later.

coz earthquake n tsunami monitoring system r v advanced for e pacific plate as earthquakes n tsunami r common. ppl stay along e coast for such r well train to flee inland once alarm is activated. however, for e indian plate, noone expected such a major devastation.

reminds me of e volcano eruption n a ashes buried a town alive. hmmm, offhand cant recall wats tat country call. its in europe. tats y i wanna visit europe. its full of such mystical history of man.

::~102~::

Sri Lankan Airlines is appealing to generous Singaporeans to donate useful items for victims of the deadly tsunami that hit Sri Lanka. Items like clothes, blankets, food, medicine, tents and even water purification tablets.

Donated items can be sent to :

133 Cecil Street,
Keck Seng Tower, #13-02.
(collection date 28 to 30/12/2004)
(office hours 0830 - 1730hrs)

Once collected, the items will be airlifted to victims in the affected areas.

Arrangements can also be made to collect large items and donations by e-mailing the carrier at sin_sales@srilankan.aero

Since the quake struck on Sunday, thousands of Sri Lankan were killed and many more made homeless.

Sri Lanka's President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga has also declared a State of National Disaster and is appealing for international aid.

The quake that struck in the Indian Ocean off Sumatra is the world's worst in 40 years. The number of dead and injured keeps rising.

A first-grade teacher was having trouble with one of her students. The teacher asked, "Little Johnny, what is your problem?" Johnny answered, "I'm too smart for the first-grade. My sister is in the third-grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the third-grade too!" The teacher had enough. She took Johnny to the principal's office. While Johnny waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the situation was. The principal told the teacher he would give the boy a test and if he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the first-grade and behave. The teacher agreed. Johnny was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed to take the test.

Principal: "What is 3 x 3?"
Johnny: "9"
Principal: "What is 6 x 6?"
Johnny: "36"

And so it went with every question the principal thought a third-grade should know. The principal looks at the teacher and tells her, "I think Johnny can go to the third-grade." The teacher says to the principal, "Let me ask him some questions?"

The principal and Johnny both agree.

Teacher: "What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?
Johnny: "Legs"
Teacher: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?" (The principal wondered, why does she ask such a question!)
Johnny: "Pockets"
Teacher: "What does a dog do that a man steps into?"
Johnny: "Pants"
Teacher: "What's starts with a C and ends with a T, is hairy, oval, delicious and contains thin whitish liquid?" (The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer...)
Johnny: "Coconut"
Teacher: "What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?"
Johnny: "Bubblegum"
Teacher: "What does a man do standing up, a woman do sitting down and a dog do on three legs?" (The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer...)
Johnny: "Shake hands"

Teacher: "Now I will ask some 'Who am I' sort of questions,okay?"
Johnny: "Yup"
Teacher: "You stick your poles inside me. You tie me down to get me up. I get wet before you do."
Johnny: "Tent"
Teacher: "A finger goes in me. You fiddle with me when you're bored. The best man always has me first." (Principal was looking restless and bit tense)
Johnny: "Wedding Ring"
Teacher: "I come in many sizes... When I'm not well, I drip. When you blow me, you feel good."
Johnny: "Nose"
Teacher: "I have a stiff shaft. My tip penetrates. I come with a quiver."
Johnny: "Arrow"
Teacher: "What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that means a lot of excitement?"
Johnny: "Fire truck"

The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher, "Put his butt in the fifth-grade, I got the last ten questions wrong myself."

just watched dis on vcd 5 mins ago.

its simply so romantic n sweet. really truly absolutely nice.

feeling damn tired.

dun noe wat to blog. let me c.

ah di went to extract.... (ok, sorry peeps, i started dis on 14-12-2004 but today is 28-12-2004 n its still not completed. i tink i just post dis 1st. will try to fill in u guys slowly. *bleahz*)

nothing much to blog abt. hee... juz wan to post someting tats all. keke... keep up my bloggin bug.

din do anyting much on sun. borin borin borin. i wan to bring regan to e zoo.

nearly got into an accident dis mornin. was going ard a bend near my place when e dumb driver in e other direction cut right into my lane n din realise. at 1st i thot he wld turn out but he was so fast n e nxt sec i cld tell he's not going to make it so i stomp on my brakes n swerve mre to my side. den at e v last min, thk god, smehow he realised n bail out. i was like 0.1cm close.

ok. going to watch 'love actually' nw. hee...

juz read trixy's bloggie.

i startin to hate all men or shld i say i've started to hate them long ago juz tat i try nt to.

y do men make women so miserable?

i totally can understand by wat she says 'waiting for tat call or sms for e whole day.'

its like i still rem long ago wif my 1st bf, i wld wait for his call or sms e whole wk. everytime e fone rings or sms beeps, i wld hope its him. but to b disappointed most of e time. n when it does finally comes in, i'm deliriously happy for tat short while before e vicious cycle begins all over again.

of coz i do nt experience tat nw. but i'm going thru a different sort of waiting. 'trix, i tink my current waitin is so much worse than urs, so cheer up k babe?'

actually i tink we r or at least i m easily satisfied. juz a little bit mre attn, love, care n concern abt e daily stuff in life, i'm contented. i dun expect 24/7 type of attn.

i like pillow talk. where at e end of e day, juz before slpin, lyin on e bed spend tat 15 mins talkin abt e day. tats all i asked for. but y do i always wait e whole nite smetimes even till wee hrs in e morning for u to cme hme fr outside wif ur frens to b disappointed by a sentence 'i'm tired.'.

u can go out wif ur frens n talk to them abt e sky, e ground n e walls but y is it tat u haf nothing to talk to me abt. m i so detestable?

arghhhhhhhh...

n men changes heart ever so readily. y do men yield to temptations so easily? y out of e 10 divorce cases 8 is coz e men had an affair outside. e other 2 is coz e wife found out they r closet gays.

i dun deny it cld b e wife fault like too naggy or watsoever.

but do us women complain when ur tummy starts growing big or socks start getting kicked under e bed or shoes thrown in a corner or u take us for granted n dun do all e hsewrk or ur hairline starts receeding? NO, we still love u as u n even more so by e min.

haiz... 'trix, u la, make me so sad n depressed oso. i already try so hard not to talk abt it le. =('

i'm so bored. help~

slack e day away. wanted to go out for dinner but mom cooked already.

den went turf city giant to stock up my pantry supplies. not used to shoppoin there so din buy much. too used to e arrangements in ntuc at bt panjang plaza. when i go there i just go row by row n buy e usual stuff - ham, bread, jam, drinks, chips, biscuits, tea, cereals den lastly daily necessities.

was watchin a bit of runaway bride by julia roberts n richard gere on ch 5. i like comedy romance coz e endin is always sweet.

searchin for a skin just nw. found one not bad but made a mess wif e hmtl codes when tryin to tweak it. work on it tmr. nw too stoned to read thru e rows n rows of html codes. 'trix, i reallie like e greenish skin u designed for me but i cant figure out what went wrong wif e squeezy words. sorrie k for nt using. thks a million for all e effort! i reallie appreciate it babe~ *hugz*''

feelin kinda sad nw. haiz... dun noe y. hope tmr is a better day.

friday friday friday. i haven been excited by e arrival of wkends n public holidays for a long time. everyday feels e same. lookin forward to startin work again so at least when e wkend comes, i feel excited. hee...

met joanna n huizhen for lunchie at jurong pt. ate at e soup restaurant. yummie... e 2 of them ordered 1st coz as usual, i was late. =P

catched up a bit. haha... let joanna 'in' into our crushes secret wif her cute neighbours cum pri sch mate when we were in sec sch.

well to summarize a long story short, joanna used to stay at pandan valley. n we wld ever so often pop by her place to hang ard, play mahjong, peep at her cool er ge, bully her nephew n basketball.

thanks to e 2 of them whom r ever so ready for sports, i've tried lots of tings tat i dun tink i wld like rock climbin, rappeling, watersports n e likes of it. can u imagine we rappel dwn her condo walls n got caught by e security guard. thks to e great ingenious idea by her da ge. always gettin us into trouble.

still rem once, her da ge, jonathan brought us to rappel at sunset way e railway bridge there. so fun. though i took so long to take e 1st leap coz i got height phobia.

anyways back to e crush story, den we knew dis grp of neighbours of hers. she din knew huizhen n me went out wif them. hahaha... how long was tat ago? hmmmm, 10 yrs. wow, time really flies.

whenever i hear e theme song for e jap series (there is e jap n chinese version), 2nd chance, it wld reminds me of those days. coz i got along rather well wif dis taiwanese (her neighbours r all rich expats) neighbour of hers n he was in love wif e female lead in e series n he highly recommended e show den.

went for lixuan's early bday bbq at her bf, timothy's apartments.

waiting for e bbq to start. kinda late. it was abt 8+ already n e frens were still tryin to get e fire going.

regan was so sad his jovan kor kor nv cme coz he was looking forward to play wif him. but pam brought along her baby daughter. so cute!

grp photo! hee... my jie meis. time really flies. was getting nostalgia n countin e yrs we knew each other. 6 yrs n counting. so sad, we r getting old.

a dwnpour had all of us scrambling into e car park to take cover. tink lixuan was so sad. coz e fire started late den after her dad put in so much effort to get e fire going (e frens fire was too small), it started raining like 15 mins later. but i guess it makes it mre memorable ba.

rachel left earlier coz yd meeting sme frens. so they r missin in action.

timothy, lixuan n grouchy regan. coz he wanted to cut e cake but it wasnt time yet. rent him to them to take a family photo. hahaha...

e durian cake which is made by her fren was yummie. was just craving for durian e day before n voila. though nt a real durian fruit but make do la. i v easily satisfied one. hee...

i wan to change my skin. dis skin is like 4 mths old le. everyone's skin is different already. muz update my oso. go surf for sme mei mei skin. tata~

yeah, i passed my 1st aid coz. though e examiner complained i was killing my victim during my cpr. haa haa... i tried my best ok. anyways, i tink in a real situation, most prob i wld faint at e sight of all e gore n becomes e one tat needs resuscitation. keke...

playing scrabble wif cal nw. dis ger ar, a couple of days nv play wif her oni, go trained up secretly n nw win me at every game.

din do much work on project 'x' dis couple of days coz of e course. muz start tmr. too brain-dead to do today so playing scrabble. but feelin guilty.

8-12-2004

to cut a long story short n e story isnt e main ting, just tat at 1st 2 of them argued, den e student noes he had misunderstood so he kept quiet, but e lecturer keep harpin n harpin on it for a good 5 mins in front of all of us.

lucky e student though at 1st was upset n tats y started e argument but managed to control his emotions n din say a word when e lecturer was harpin if not tings might get out of control. as e student those type of middle-age uncle (looks like those construction supervisor), so u noe dis age oso quite naggy one. haha...

i dun care who disturbs him at any time except meal time. coz he wld b distracted n he already takes a long time to eat, wif e distractions, he can nv finish his dinner wif all e jumpin ard n tokin. e air alone will make him full.

anyways, ate oni half of my dinner n regan eat oni 3 mouthfuls den i storm off.
