overdue post!

on the 2rd March 2007,
[i know, i know.. it's like, SUPER overdue larh!]


i went shopping!
[whee~ first time worzzz. well, sorta..]


haha. :D


at bras basah
[a place of pain. *groans*]


with my very tall girl friend and my not so tall boy friend.
[lovely people, they are..]


^mission:
to get a nice Bible. :))
[settled on the classic NIV one. softcover, though.]


^{mission status}:
accomplished.
[after spending like, 1 hour there?]


^process:
i couldn't resist picking up a bunch of nice stickers and bookmarks and pass-it-on cards while i was there.
[heh, since when could i, anyway? :P]


^{adventure after}:
i fell on my bum.
FOUR(or was it five?) times.

tripped at first, caught my balance.
and then i fell at the next step.
[oh, the embarrassment.]
-that was before dinner-

-and later after dinner,-
on the way back to the car
i tripped along another flight.
um, that one,
i slipped
and tripped
and landed on my bum.
three times.
consecutively.
[grr. it must be the ^lo^us^y design of the staircases there. heh. especially since it was raining. and the floor was....*nagnagnag* haha. :P]


^outcome:
a big triangle blueblack on my bum/thigh.
[*ouch* it hurted for two weeks. and i'm not kidding, it really was a triangle. not the 60^o/angle kinda triangle, but those that could have Pythagoras' Rule applied to them, kinda triangle. bah.]


haha. oh, well.
see la! whose fault?

mine lorh.
who ask me wear frictionless-soled-sneakers on a wet rainy day?!!
and not learning my lesson even after falling down once.

hah.
oh, well.
what an adventure i had, that day. :P

yawns~

stagnant blog.

do forgive me,

i have alot to think about after that day.

will post an entry when i can.

about something pretty cool that i experienced on wed+thurs.

my priorities were messed up.now they're rearranged.

i want to do what HE would want me to do.

i want to love my FAMILY in tangible and intangible ways.

i want to give my all in my STUDIES if i'm given a second shot.

i want to glorify HIM in all i do.

for that's my purpose for living.

stuck.

someone recently told me

that one must never get stuck

when you're in Singapore.

true, true.

unfortunately

it seems that i am.

it's been almost a week since the little girl left the office.

feels kinda weird 'cos she was my favourite lunch partner.
(she's the only other female temp here ah!)

no one to talk nonsense with.
(you know how serious the guys can be..)

no one to listen rave about 小猪 anymore.
(maybe i should be content with Jolin Tsai..haha!)

no one to do paper stapling and stamping and photocopying and scanning and shredding with
(remember how we did the announcements in record time? remember our pieces of paper art?)

aiyoh..
little girl ah!
missing you la..
but i'm happy as long as you're happy.
-huggs

WAYYY COOOOL!!! haha. uh, well, if you're not afraid of dying. :P

the office building i was in experienced the t^re^mo^ur^s.

the first time i wasn't paying much attention.

i was just coming back from buying back lunch with my colleage.

who knew?

when we came back, we saw the other permanent staff from our floor at the foyer,

telling us about the quake, advising us not to go up yet.

but the guy with me was hungry, i think.

tried looking for place to sit at LPS so we could eat but it was SO crowded.

eventually came back 'cos it was really too warm to enjoy lunch.

ignored what was going on,

realised that besides the lady who sits behind me at work,

we were the only ones in the office.

think most people were worried that the building'd collapse.

heh.

but there was work to be done.

i could here the sheets of data for entry calling out my name....

YEAH, RIGHT.

haha.

(goodness! i'm sarcastic. that's bad.)

um, anyway, the second wave came and this time i felt it!

the lady behind me was looking at the ceiling and said something so i looked up.

and lo and behold, the lights were swaying!

i thought it was kinda cool.

despite the woozy feeling in my head.

haha.

oh, well.

anyway, another of the permanent staff remarked that at least we'd already had lunch, or we might be hungry ghosts!

aiyoh.

superstition.. >.<

Dooms Day came and went without much hype

I didn't fare well.
Praying for revelation of what to apply for.
Feeling sorry for my family that they have to go through accepting the outcome.
Disappointment with myself.
Promised me to work hard for wherever I will be placed.

i am sick.

migraine, that's the word.

according to my family doctor it could be triggered by a number of things.

sudden changes in termperature..

vanilla-flavoured foods..

emotional upsets..

chocolate..

stress.

haha.

valentines day!

haha. overdue post. anyway, i baked chocolate chip cookies for my colleagues! heh. uh, INTERESTING experience. the first batch turned out soft and crumbly. so did the second. the third was not too bad. as was the fourth. (these were the ones i could distribute.) the fifth was burnt. so basically, i "wasted" about 3kg of cookie batter and chocolate chips. sigh~ oh, well. blame it either on rustiness (the last time i baked was in Sec2 Home Economics Class, where surprisingly i got a 38/40 for that baking test) or the "new" oven (actually left behind by the previous owners of our house) which doesn't function properly. haha. wrapped the cookies up, two for each person except for my super-nice supervisors who got an extra each. haha. didn't leave my name on the tag so i was laughing to myself when they were wondering out loud who had given the cookies to them. they tried guessing and i tried to avoid answering them. but some eventually got it right. for those that didn't know? well, let's just say that they were remembered on this Valentine's Day. =]

Sunday came and went.

the outfit i painstakingly put together.

the "belt" i sewed on.

with many pricks to my fingers.

worth it?

haha. well, satisfaction arose when i put it on.
