okayy so my us trip is confirmed. departing on the 27th april. somehow i'm not excited at all. perhaps the excitement has been dampened by the coming results, and the fact that i might miss a slew of scholarship stuff.
hmmph.
hopefully, everythign is sorted out before i leave. that would be fantastic. but not very possible.
rah i'm so bored. all i've been doing is to lie in front of the tv watching cantonese serials and movies.
which explains my tummy. it has a life of its own.
okay the coming trip is giving me some excuse to buy some stuff. i need more birkies for comfort when i walk all over the place there. andi need a good bag. really!
friday was nice. met hw and sara at sun with moon for some jap food. and then we walked around town. where i was so tempted to buy books from borders. because i really want to read a million lil pieces and kite runner. and they have this 3 for 2 sale. so i could get some other trashy book. but i didnt. :( bought a very flare skirt instead.
and then met the canoeists for dinner, at sakura. or magic wok. i dont know la. and we walked past this gorgeous shop with even more divine shoes at fareast. wee. except i'm still waiting for my second pay. so i cant get anything. just yet.
and alev results are out 1march!!
my mom announced that she thinks i'll get 2As. how encouraging. and she thinks 4As is like some impossiblity for me. oh well. we'll see, we'll see.
ah my tummy aches.
meanwhile, i'm eagerly awaiting my second paycheck. heehee.

sigh. work is tiring. and i am terrible at vetting worksheets. becausei can never spot any mistakes. then when it goes to belinda, i'll see tons of mistakes that i would never have spotted out. and then i feel very bad for increasing the workload of those people.
oh and did i mention wrong is working here too? except she works downstairs and idont see her at all. but i find the idea of everybody working here quite exciting.
okay there's another new intern. i think it's time for those lazy guy interns to do something constructive like pack worksheets!! guys are lazy. all they do is sit there and type their gep worksheets! they dont even do paris! i doubt any of them will ever read this so nvm.

sitting, waiting, and wishing.

hmmph.

hii. i am upset. haynes just left for india, and there's some fungal epidemic due to Renu lenses solution. and i use renu.
michigan sent me a letter saying i have been shortlisted to apply for their honours programme. sounds pretty good eh, except i have to write a 1000 word essay in three weeks. not funny. i dont know if i should do this or not.
rahhhhhhh. how, how.

i just came from walk the line at great world. it's quite nice, the movie. but i dont think it deserves all the oscar hype. i think reese witherspoon can sing well though! andjoaquin phoenix quite hot. i think the southern drawlllllllllll is quite cute too. and i think country music is really catchy.
okay. so i went to find out about the residential college. turns out it's a liberal college where hippes/weirdoes hang out. i am not a hippie! and i dont want to be one! i'm not going to be protesting at some world bank meeting anytime soon. and i dont have shaggy long hair. i dont like alternative stuff. and i am so not a hippie!! so there's no way i want to go to that residential college thing, even though their academic programs are supposedly good. i just want a normal economics & business degree thanks.
my mom is scaring me with an article in the papers. apparantly renu the contacts len solution causes fungal infection. and this guy's eyes turned green. that is just gross. and i use renu!
i saw a really adorable bunny at a petshop today. it rivals the ones at the learning lab. i want bunnies. although thelast time i reared them, they all died a while later. i have no idea why. all my pets die very quickly. even though i keep everything really clean and i feed them good food. :(
tired.tired. work is terrible, i dont want to work.

i am brilliant. i got into michigan. but i applied wrongly. now i'm in the college of lit arts, and science residential college. i dont want the stupid residential college! i just want to get into college or arts and science. the residential college is for courses like dance , drama and creative writing. i'm not flying to us to do a course in creative writing!
and now my mom has forbidded from studying in us. because, the schools i applied to are lousy and the place is unsafe. hello. at least use some research or reading to back up what u say! dingbats! and please, i applied to penn, berkeley and michi. i think they're quite fine schools. i dont think anybody has the right to say those are lousy. (penn, for god's sake)
and they nag that i dont care bout local unis. so fine, today i opened the smu page to apply. and guess what, i accidentally closed the page and now i cant log in. maybe they wanna make their page more user friendly!?
and now i'm irked by all these ignorant people. and non user friendly pages!!!!!

help. i am dying of boredom at work. i am busy&bored. urgh.
so it was vday today. then some lucky female colleagues at my workplace got huge bouquets from deliverymen. it was quite amusing. then all her friends would gather over the flower and squeal over it for a while. and the whole cycle repeats when another deliverymen comes.
ah, this is terrible. my throat is damn painful. i've been gorging on too much crackers from the pantry. and all the cny festive eating is getting into me. rah.
i dont like work! i want to go back to school. tragic. i have like some 4 yearrs of school before i hit the working world again.
and why is every intern in learning lab getting into wharton!! okay, it's just two. but as we all know, wharton accepts like some 5 people each year. and two of them are working here. hoho maybe this is a sign that penn will accept me. i wish. they will reject me theni 'll be the only loser in TLL who got rejected from penn!

i'm back from synyi's party. it was alright. although i got a little dizzy at the end. :( we played monopoly and i kept paying money and going to jail. but at the end, we all started playing nonsense and we got 8 hotels for $150. hee.
aiight. i'm so tired. but i cant sleep cuz my hair is wet. and the dryer is in my mom's room and she's sleeping and i dont want to disturb her.
and i have work tmr! how sad is that. work on saturday. when everybody's out to playy.
oh i think we're flying on the 27th april !! and mi dad just bought a new mazda to replace his toyota. i think it's nice.
ah, everybody says a lev results are next week. but i dont believe them. and i dont want it next week. means scholarship apps. er, assuming i do well enough, which i certainly hope so. :(
bleagh.

i have no moneyy.
met synyi , carol, jaya and jan today for lunch. at spaggedies. the food was really good though. because we ordered everything cheese, and nothing goes wrong with cheese. and i had strawberry milkshake. so i had a very rich lunch, but i emerged alot poorer.
then i had to bum around alone for 4 hours before i met sara, mich and lynn. so i sat at borders for a really long time, reading the paris hilton book. it's so trashy! but quite entertaining. and she talks a whole lot of shit. she says sleeping with make up is good because it leaves the face dewy.i'm sure. i say it leaves the face with a hell lot of acne.
and then i walked around. and was getting really bored because the post-cny sales are not that enticing actually. dont really fancy alot of stuff out there. and then good old sara came first and i gave her a really pretty notebook for her birthday.
and sara asked if i was interested in going back to laos, apparantly karen, geri, and sara are planning some cip thing again. and then, mich and sara and me wanna head to hongkong soon. so we can gorge on dimsum and visit themeparks and shop. but i hope i'll have enough money after the us trip.

and i want to watch franz ferdinand! but i think the tickets are running out fast.

happy from smoked salmon.




visiting at uncle's house yesterday. his apartment is gorgeous. with the ocean view, and breeze. except they were trying to create some sort of party ambience with only candles. it's nice for a while. but after a while, my eyes were just strained from the semi-darkness. and i couldnt really see my food. the food was good though.
then talked a bit to my cousins, whom i quite frankly dont know well at all. my dad's side is complicated. i have cousins who have 3 chidlren already, and cousins that are babies. so, er i talked to brandon (shit i forgot his name, brandon i think), guohui, jeremy and guohui's gf. i didnt do much talking though. i'm not exactly fond of doing small talk with relatives.

grawhhhh. i'm grumpy and tired. bye.

haha. the pm's boy seems to own the army out there. apparantly they did a policy change after he brought up some issue during a session at ns. i was rather amused when i heard tt.
ooh suddenly the whole world wants to meet up! one minute i'm dying of boredom at home. and the next, everybody wants to meet up in the same week. but i'm not complaining. it's nice to sit around and eat and talk. i like that. i also have to buy everybody's birthday presents. including the ones that i owe last year heh.
okay. i really, really ought to do all my scholarship forms but i'm really too damn lazy to start. urgh. work is tiring you know!
and then my pretty shoe kills my feet. after a walk to the station, i discover i have about 10 blisters on my feet. and i'm hobbling around the office like a complete moron in pretty shoes. and when i was going home, i figured if i had walked, my feeet would have been murdered completely. so i took the bus. and to my horror, there were like some 5323 pri school kids. smelly, and so goddamn noisy. there was stupid fat boy who kept stuffing himself with twisties. and he kept jabbing me. and others screaming into my ears. and i could barely hear the music in my mp3 player because of the noise. stupid fat singaporean kids!!
rahh.
okay america's top model awaits.
