no matter how hard a decision, it still has to be made.

Last week was a slow and good one. a tummyache spoilt my sunday. grrrr. spent my weekdays home with bad weather. the humid weather is irritating the shite outta me! i'm rejoicing as i've saved more than a thousand bucks! had my CS and ms office installed free of charge, thanks to that rattlebox salesman. like my aunt says 'that kinda talk alot salesman, but no action done' lol. at least he did something to prove us wrong. hahah.
had some good lunch and dinner, a lil supermarketing and household shopping... wonderful. i hate eating home now. nothing good comes out of our kitchen. really. except salmon and mushroom pasta. i did rather have outside food though it ain't healthy. really. sometimes i wish he ain't that fussy with our home. ARGH.
more peeks from last few weeks. i'm slow and lazy. thanks for reminding.
mind is filled up with other much more important matters like skool, skool and skool. urgh.
now if only i'm some rich kid that can spend 60K on studies, i wouldn't hafta dwell on this issue for so long. i really hate moving on at times. moving on with life. making tough decisions.
i'm so not ready for the adult world. i don't want to be an adult!
2 more weeks left before hard decisions have to be made. permanantly.
make sure i make the right choice. wish me luck! it hasn't been on my side recently.
and that job. everyone's beginning to question me about why i'm still jobless. i'll get down to that issue once i'm done with this uni application thingy. okay, that's what i'm telling myself. might not actually be doing.
hello to Spore Fashion Festival! a big thankyou to darling pirate*b for the free pass to Topshop show. yeeeey! we'll be among the first to catch a glimpse of the Kate Moss for Topshop collection!=)
can't wait for this weekend. new glasses-yes, new glasses AGAIN, i wasn't quite happy with this current pair, some good 'ol catching up and party(maybe)!
shux my arms are hurting. and my fists can't seem to grab anything without trembling. just a 20min tennis game under the scotching sun got me into this stage. guess i'll hafta face the fact that i'm getting older and weaker. but then again, maybe that's 'cos i haven't touched the racket for years. hmmm. i've promised myself to practice more tennis! actually, it's one game that i kinda miss. having dad teach me the game, hitting the ball all over the court, laughing at myself for being dumb and all. that's part of the fun isn't it?
let's pray for a great sunny weather tomorrow. i wanna get sun-baked tomorrow!
gotta get back to Heroes! managed to get the whole series frm unkle dax. yey! it's times like these that i don't need cable. i'm so addicted to Heroes! catch it soon if you've yet to!
-----------------------------------------
can you feel the joy?
i can't help but feel like this is taken out frm one of the Islander ads. lol.
we left our mark.
self-proclaimed tourists and the bona fide tourist.

there's something about March

yes indeed. this month alone, i seem to have morphed into a tech-monster. i've bagged 3 new tech-toys just this month alone! but i ain't complaining. =)
last monday was a great monday. whoever said Mondays had to be blue? talks over tea and a quiet dinner + a wonderful film, Paris Je T'aime. it's like watching a pictorial film where you relish at snapshots of the ravishing beauty of the city. the city of love, yes, indeed! i'm hoping that it's true!
my great monday has yet to end there. a great surprise was home waiting for me. was catching desperate housewives when my dad told me to check out my gift. oooh god, it was a stunning Canon Powershot G7! it left me high with excitement which lasted the whole night. this is like one of the best gifts ever! even my daddy haven't got me a conventional cammy ever before. =(
Thanks B.! that's a really sweet gesture! so nice of him as he knows i love photography. that gift was really one of the few huge surprises in life, i really didn't see it coming!
that Mon sure was a bright and lovely one for me.
the IT show last weekend set me back by quite abit. now, i hafta get a job as soon as i get done with the uni registrations. i know i shouldn't feel this way, but it's sucha hassle!
really dread this feeling.
i betta get back to discovering my new toys now. wheeee!
will upload the rest of the peeks soon.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
not much visitors for CNY this year. this pair of aunty and unkle are 2 of the few.

MOS on the 2nd day of CNY with darling aunty Char.
bloody hell, MOS was super packed with you-know-whats cos of the 'free entry before 12'.

flashback. yet again.

time really flies by so quickly. before you know it, it's March already! omfg. the late night habits are back yet again. my fussy folks ain't happy about this. gotta start trying to tuck in and rise early!
it's the time of the yr for enrolment and to step on the new path in life. i should really get a job soon. thank gawd for the CNY which helped a lil financially. tee hee hee.
now, if only my sis gets married soon. she ought to. hahaha. then i'll be richer!
the future is still vague. i hate this feeling yet it's been lurking around me since feb. argh.
i can't wait for JUNE! yey! come quick! but now, i gotta get down to doing what i'm obliged to-get a job. this whole month of bumming around at home has been great, great, great. we all need that short holiday away from work, don't we?
lazy me just wants this to last forever. sigh.
yey! lunch at unkle ah choy's tmr. and then, gamble, gamble, gamble. hope i can cover up my losses wit winnings. wish me luck!
enjoy your lovely sunday, lovelies!

it's wiser to park ur car on the left side so that you can return safely to ur car. those who parked on the right, without the pedestrain path, they'll be dead in a matter of seconds.

that's my crazy friend whos stole my sunnys. he's doing a rendition of Micheal's songs.
he aspires to be the MJ of SG. hahaha.
