Shmashing adventure!

2 out of 8 of my resolutions have been successfully completed...

Firstly, i went for a haircut and came back with a fringe! (cannot take any pics for this... My fringe is still pinned up so that it stays in place next time)

Besides, Tiffy, Cassandra (Tiffy's lil sis), Grace and I went a' gallavanting at AEON... Man, was it fun! Luckily Tiffy brought her camera so please visit her blog (click here) to check out the pics...

It seems that AEON has become the Kwang-Huarians' lepak hotspot... Saw 5S1 students and also our BM teacher having a munch at the restaurants... (BM teacher was giving us that what-have-all-of-you-been-up-to looks... hehe)

So anyway we had our lunch at Sakae Sushi and had my first try at raw salmon and wasabi (and no, I have not been staying at any kampung for 16 years of my life... I just haven't tried Japanese food in my entire life... except for a sushi 2 years ago...) so then I was mildly fascinated at how the ocha (which means green tea! haha!.... erm, you'd probably known that already, didn't you?) was served... I was thinking of pressing the wedge labelled "hot" with my palm... then my friends reminded me that I was supposed to pour hot water into the cup, not scorch my hand :P

Ok, cutting the crap, we ate rice (is it ubon? I forgot... anyone please correct me...) (which is supposedly donburi) and if you do go there, you might want to try Teriyaki ChickenUbon Donburi (which means rice)... but since I'm no connosieur on Japanese fine dining, I'll just have to tackle the limitations of my English vocabulary to describe the dish by using words like scrumptious, delicious, sumptuous, bla bla... Just try it lar!

We hung around for an hour or more till everyone were gone save for 4 silly damsels putting the digicam on self timer to take pics... all the waiters and waitresses crowded over our table to witness the incredible feat of us squeezing our heads and bodies to suit the height of the camera... and guess who got the largest head shot? yep, it was Tiffy's sis... check out the pics to see for yourself! and yes, the thought to ask the waitresses there to help us out did cross my mind, but what's more fun that body-shoving, head-ramming and mouth-screaming at each other in front of the camera?

Luckily I hung out with non-spendthrifts and I managed to save my wallet from being stripped of its dignity... but I still couldn't tahan myself from buying Big Apple Donuts... (its at the top floor... same floor as the cinema)

*~I bought a box of 6... but where did one and a half go? I wonder... burp. excuse me.~*

bye bye blue pinafore!

For the FIRST time in my life the term "holidays" can live up to its name! So behold, my “bye bye blue pinafore” resolutions:
*~2 years worth of knowledge... all of them going to end up at the recyling centre...
so, anyone! please save them from this gloomy fate! (with payment, of course)~*

  1. TRY to sell all my Form 4 & 5 school books without suffering a great deal of loss (selling books at half price is a great loss!So, anyone interested? *flaunting the Shrek's puss- in-boots look)
  2. Improve on my blog by frequently updating it (well, hopefully *grin)
  3. Find a decent-paying-yet-not-too-tiring-and close-to-home job (too idealistic, huh?)
  4. Watch Stardust, The Golden Compass, Enchanted (my movie list at the moment)
  5. Rope skipping! (Is it wrong to give a 5 feet tall girl a teensy bit of hope?)
  6. Pray harder so that I get straight A1’s for SPM and I will not get NS next year :)
  7. Get a fresh new haircut (but not a new hair colour! Black is the new… black?)
  8. Go to AEON Bukit Tinggi and shop till I drop! just look around… :P
Let's see how many of them can I tick off my list before 31st Dec!

Mind Business

I've finally figured out the meaning of "it's all in the mind"... It means if you can't think positively, don't think AT ALL. It will really kill you.

I KNOW i'm in the midst of SPM. I KNOW i have accounts and chinese paper to go... but i really have to vent my frustration onto this post. Crap if i may, at least i won't think about IT that much...

The problem is, i think too much. The more i calculate, the less marks I'm getting for Biology. So far I've lost about 10 marks, give and take i might lose 20 marks in total... Okay why doesn't blogging help me solve my dilemma?

Sorry, if you're looking for quality in this post, it practically has as much quality as... erm... an apple that has been left to oxidise for three days? (ok i'm bad at simile)

But i've figured that the more you think of something in the NEGATIVE way, the worse things get... But thankfully I know I have limited brain capacity so this frustration will stay in my mind for a max of 2 days... then i'll PROBABLY forget it all...

But heck, who doesn't want to get A1 for SPM?

Ok i think blogging therapy is not working for me... The other alternatives:
1. Retail therapy (i think money is unrenewable "energy"...so might not b worth the trouble)
2. Book therapy (i BADLY want to read "My family and other animals" by Gerald Durrell but I'm still having my chinese exam... my brain has to be "mandarinised"...)
3. Movie therapy (THIS will do jz fine...)
4. Food therapy (i'll have to bear the consequences of growing laterally then....)


ok. I'd better move on to movie therapy.
