working now. taking a short break to blog before spreadsheets take over for the next few hours. ugh. assignment due on friday. hope i can get a couple of good references for my group. seriously appreciate them. :)
anyhoos. been playing facebook games at every free moment i have. even if its just a minute, i would log in to check stuff before logging back out.
family holiday might be cancelled this year. kinda sad coz i really do want to travel and shop overseas. saving up the money i earned just for shopping. gawd, i am a shopaholic in denial.
been thinking about that day when angie and i were talking and she suddenly asked me what was the first impression i had about her. the answer wasn't really nice but i think she expected it. i found mine (friendly) very patronizing. but i didn't mention it because she obviously thought it was a compliment. still undecided how i truly feel about being seen as 'friendly' because i don't think friendly is how my first impression goes.

HAPPY BELATED 50th BIRTHDAY DADDY~!
anyhoos, great party. pics might go up but only if i can get them from the official photographer. obviously it was fairly formal so i wore a dress and for the first time, wore heels. now my legs are dying coz they ache. -glares at shoes- i better have lost weight walking around.
finally bought the love and theft 'cd' from itunes coz singapore doesn't seem to carry it. ugh.
plans for perth finally coming together. hope there won't be any hiccups.
i wanna go for the Halloween night safari thingy. but so far can't find anyone to go with me. saw in today or ytd newpaper that 31st oct would be some single/matchmaking session at the night safari. i'm almost tempted enough to ask mich if she wants to go with moi. hahhaa.

went for media class and skipped business today. good choice since teacher gave out assignments today. stress arhs!
me and lynnette are like hugging our laptops and furiously taking down notes. i think my nails make a lotta noise but i couldnt care less. playing farmville in the meantime, i'm super bored.
trying not to breathe in too much coz there's someone in my class who has either bad breath or pretty horrid BO. feel like fainting. help~!
anyhoos, anyone wanna date me out after next week? i think my need for socialization just increased tenfold, am so tempted to give a rude wake up call to J or mich just so i could talk to someone. hahaha.
It's a masquerade, a love parade
So won't you stay and dance with me
All through the night and day
My masquerade, I need you baby
So stay with me tonight
-bsb
i wanna learn to love again

silly me. always getting overexcited. went to ecp partially to walk and partially to see halley's comet but failed. (coz my info was screwy). anyhoos, still a pretty good time.
econs was alright. i think if i had studied more, i might have been able to answer the section B with more confidence but i still think i can get a pass or credit.
got class in a coupla hours followed by work and then some. gotta sleep but something just spoiled my mood and i can't go to sleep just yet.
i took a chance, i took a shot
And you might think i'm bulletproof but i'm not

spent part of my day studying before mahjong with glen and his dad yesterday. fun fun. i think i won most of glen's money. (note that of 10am on 21 Oct 2009, i have alr spent my winnings) watched glen and kev play xbox after dinner before going home.
OTB and Econs papers today. hope that what i learn is enough to get me a decent grade. realized i have two classes at the same bloody time on saturday and i'm still not sure which one is more important to attend.

last few weeks have just been a blur of work and school so i was really happy to take tuesday off.
lunch date with glen who picked me up since he's finally gotten his license. lunched nearby before we went to pick mich up. headed to glen's place for mahjong.
played for like seven hours straight! had dinner on NUS campus before going home. totally enjoyed myself la. coz finally i could spend time with not only michelle but glen too. <3s
hopefully if my exam schedule isn't that fucked up, glen and i can travel down to perth. (planning to use him as my porter/slave while i shop, teehee!)
commlaw paper on wednesday. managed to answer questions. hopefully i can get a credit or disinction.
skipped econs tonight since i was feeling really lousy. took meds for fever so hopefully it'd be gone by tomorrow. working the whole day so i probably have to wear a skirt, ugh. i'm a tomboy at heart, skirts and dresses tend to be an issue but wth, gotta get used to them. and yes mich, i am so 'DYING' to learn to walk in heels.
what we could have been, 10:42 pm.
was pretty sleepy this morning so i had a rude wake up call on the ride to work. there was this huge-ass ant on the files i was helping my dad carry. i was like 'OMG, DADDY, THERE'S A HUGE ANT ON THE FILE!' and to my dad's credit he swept it off like the annoying insect it was before stomping on it. ick.
class was alright. boring lecture but really stupid group discussion-whatever thing. went over to max and fen's class during break. noisy teacher they have. heh.
tomorrow meeting glen for cupcakes and lunch. followed by mahjong. plus since glen's gotten his license, he's gonna be my personal chauffeur for tomorrow, yeah!
what we could have been, 10:03 pm.
mom dropped me off for commercial law class this morn. was so tempted to hail a cab and go to jake's place instead of attending class. but anyhoos, sat with elaine and serene again. i'm so glad i'll be seeing them in my business course classes. (YAY!)
met up with mom for lunch at raffles. ate at shokudo which made me super happy since i finally killed off my caramelized bananas in chocolate sauce crepe craving. hehehe.
nearly fell asleep in class again. i feel really bad for the teacher coz i think he notices that despite me trying not to, i do end up sleeping in his classes.
phone bill is deffo high this month. especially with all the texting during weekend classes. i so cannot go without social interaction. if the world ended someday, i hope to die then be the sole survivor coz i would just go insane without having someone to talk to.
okay, so i admit i love talking. and that i'm super talkative.
rents, kev and i are going out for dinner. yeah! i hate home made dinners on weekends (except when its western)
oh eah. i got the BSB 'this is us' cd!! gonna play it nonstop tonight and straight after my commlaw paper on wednesday.
Our song is the slamming screen door
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
'Cause it's late and your mama don't know

went to watch some fashion show at taka with mich before gym today. MAJOR EYE CANDY. i think i could have died on the spot and gone to heaven just seeing those handsome beefcakes.
happily sat down in anticipation of watching the hawt male models strut their stuff. alas, we only had time to watch the elita line of clothes before rushing off.
watching the Russia VS Germany match right now. Klose scored a goal for germany. YAY GERMANY~!

LAURA. サイレン. lake baikal.prydonium.♥ i want my baby CuPcake! says:
either someone just cursed me or is so obssessed with me
coz i sneezed
lols
Sherman: Jeri never fails to keep me alive. She rocks all time. says:
i think someone cursed you
LAURA. サイレン. lake baikal.prydonium.♥ i want my baby CuPcake! says:
obviously i believe its the latter
LOL
thanks arhs
must be you
-.-
Sherman: Jeri never fails to keep me alive. She rocks all time. says:
if it was me youd be sneezing all day and everyday
LAURA. サイレン. lake baikal.prydonium.♥ i want my baby CuPcake! says:
hmm
my protection strong marhs
just temporary power failure
and then your one curse got through
xD
Sherman: Jeri never fails to keep me alive. She rocks all time. says:
nah...if i curse it wont be stoppable
this is the type of stupid conversations with sherman that i endure daily. but then again, i think i would be madly bored if not for him and the rest of the office peeps. love them all.
p.s. hide all rubber bands and cold compressors coz sherman's a klepto when these items come into play. (he's very childish). hehehe.

super duper tired. being stretched thin to accommodate everything. sometimes i just feel like finding a corner and start sobbing. i'm that miserable.
its hard to pretend to be truly happy when you're not. but no one actually notices either. falling apart at the seams.

just had a fantastic but pretty much unhealthy breakfast. went over to barcode bakery to buy an array of buns. and surprisingly they had garlic rib bun! obviously moi was very pleased.
bought for jake too. who knew he ended up bringing nuggets and ham. yay. so we had a mini breakfast picnic before starting work. made milo to share so it really hit the spot after all that savory food.
(yes yes, michelle, i just threw away my efforts to lose weight by this week but at the moment who cares).
on a random note, this is my 400th post.

you know the idiom, 'you have to be cruel to be kind'. i feel like a hypocrite by practicing it these few days. i myself can't take it, i tend to run a lot on emotions so sometimes a friend's effort comes to waste when i take offense and cry.
J, you know i care a lot for you. but sometimes, quite often really, i'm tempted to scream my head off because YOU. SIMPLY. DONT. CARE. it's insulting to hear, i know and i'm sorry but you need to have your own drive. you cant expect some dutiful wife to be pushing behind you because obviously there isn't one.
i feel like i'm blindfolded. walking through daily motions without much thought or emotion. i'm losing touch with reality, that's for sure. slipping back into nothingness.
sometimes i think that's a good thing when i just wanna get away. but life still rolls on nonetheless. and i gotta buck up on my studies, no more half-arsed attempts.
work's hit a stalemate. seriously need to be more careful with Excel. GAH! stupid spreadsheets. workmates are really good, i love them all. seriously they're the best workmates i could ask for.
schoolmates too! i feel super bad that i'm pretty useless in my HRM classes. always have to get someone to explain or teach me whatever i need to know or do. sighs. but then again, i choose to do it so i just have to suck it in and get it done with.

today was really fun at work. total HIGH. lots of crude jokes flying around. SHERMAN spread the sickness to everyone so everyone was indulging in dirty jokes by lunchtime.
my group, the CI group, had staff meeting when shima (dear dear recep girl) recieved a rose from a walk-in secret admirer. that's when i hit my high i think. immediately started teasing her once the meeting was over.
puns and innuendos got progressively worse as the day wore on. particularly after the bosses left. me, jake, huda, david and sari decided to OT. sherman sat with me for like half an hour while i sorta OT-ed. heh. seriously put me in a room with jake or sherman or huda or sari and we can talk til the cows come home.
ate kenny rogers for dinner. went with jake to the GW one. coincidentally i saw my secondary sch teacher, miss chin, at the table next to us. wanted to say hi but she and her friend were gossiping away and jake felt really awkward so didn't say anything in the end.
photos are of alvin and yu tian's wedding. obviously an extravagant one (-mumbles- probably way unlike mine). lol. food was super good and noisy atmosphere. met ethel and ethan there. ethan's grown so tall! he's gonna be taller than me soon and he's only 9! ethel's still the adorable china doll that i've fallen in love with. they look so sweet as flower girl and escort. LOL.
