morbid curiosities

I can feel one of those metal brackets on my upper right molar going loose, but I LIKE GUAVAS SO VERY MUCHLY! and weikai is already on his retainers!

Slept at 2AM the past two days primarily because I was headed for the flower patch everyday after school, pushed pebbles into the soil, wrote in the back of the organizer (now you know where to raid) for as long as the sun took to set, for reasons that elude myself, maybe for somebody or some things. Then headed home via the back way, put dinner into my tum, walked around the house with the phone to my ear and only started writing my CWE at 11PM. Which turned out to be a horrible piece of work because I ended it "abruptly", as tuyan comments, in an effort to go to sleep early. Early being 2.15AM, after going on MSN and finding nobody but a few owls.

Dickson went said he was going offline and disconnected me! Okay he didn't, it's just my computer. Now he's asking me school related q



Stopped writing cos I had to go out to dinner. Had pepper lunch for the first time with squaddies at taka after cny celebrations yesterday and unleashed my inner noob onto yueting's food by cooking it for her and leaving the middles of the chicken raw. Yeah, thats me, the next martha stewart. Then I dragged the poor things to go shopping for a wallet with me and saw some pretty ones at rafflescity that i might go back to get.

Met laulau at the library today and looked through her photos of the HC Science camp thingy on her new phone. So prettay! I also want a new phone gee (: But I can't seem to find any pretty ones by nokia and SE so I might be veering toward LG gags at memory of first phone.

Life in a half mess now, rapidly growing backlog of work and still CNY to go, people to keep in touch with, with things like enunciation and speed of thought to improve on, and thank goodness, jokes to laugh at (:

Holiday friends
retreat back into the photo albums they came from
the december sun
could only hold so much in its embrace,
and has shied away
behind looming school buildings
and its charges.

Sand pulled like a rug from under your feet
then returned to the shore, and
children, not unlike us, frolicking in the sea
mouths engulfed by
slow, large, foamy waves bringing
the salt
that gatecrashed your words,
framed the corners of your smile;
but the aftertaste left
_______________your
tastebuds; expectations; perspectives
never the same.

We all want to get kissed in the rain,
lie in the grass
and catch planes with our fingertips
_______onto
___jump____lilypads
and walk to the end of a rainbow

time and again
only to find the pot of gold
is on the other side
and the rainbow,

vanished.

I think, therefore I am

Hi you people who read but never comment (unless someone is playing with the counter), I fell asleep in bio lab last week, woke late and missed the anniversary celebrations altogether, called my history teacher the wrong name and I've only been to two days of formal school this week.

Not to mention the stack of notes that I am told that I have to lug around everyday, and I am not very excited about lab because i suck at drawing every kind of table other than the real one. sighs loudly why did I not take humanities?

All this note-reading and hour forty lab sessions better land me somewhere earning big bucks tsk.

I'm sorry you guys (sqdmates and leong who organised the movie outing) cos I left my phone home and went to my aunt's house to eat like every kind of cny cookie that left me feeling a whole lot better, never mind that I'm prolly flabby all over already :)

2am - 11am

I think I did it.

I found the dress that will "take me through a date, a work meeting, a girls' night out and a tea session with the Queen of England" :D It's imported from London because my mom thinks Londoners dress very sophisticatedly and sensibly. It's black with a pleated bottom and two cute faux straps at the waist with big white cloth buttons. And it matches the beautiful necklace laulau gifted me! The only thing I dont quite like about it is that it's sleeveless. Otherwise it would be perfect. (:

Anyways I went to Raffles Town Club: The Dunearn Ballroom sometime back for my gorgeous model cousin's wedding and I loved the place + service! They had cute guys handing out drinks and serving the food ehhe. Nat and I took pictures with the Edward Room and Victoria Room HAHAH. We attended the cocktail reception, but before that my sisters followed the wedding entourage around for the photo shoot and two huge lunch buffets while I was earning moolah -.- Chelsea is the flower girl for this wedding, along with another cute little boy in a tux and they got to throw rose petals!

Their whole wedding theme was amazing. The organizers did up a wedding poster that resembled the "Coming Soon" billboards in theatres right outside the door, which was really impressive. Typical nine-course dinner and souvenirs aside, I loved every single one of her gowns and I would like one with a corset! The toilet at the Club is so grand, the sinks area is bigger than the size of my bedroom with marble tiling, huge ceiling-to-floor mirrors and gold autotaps with autosoap. Good for camwhoring i say ;)


Squad chalet was like well, all the squad chalets in previous years. Just a whole lot cosier and uh picked up loads of card games this time round thanks to leong who kept jumping in clarine's face to ask her to play bridge. Tried my hand at barbequeing chicken wings and lets just say they didn't turn out very nice so I decided to stick to buttering everything and leave the food cooking to the pro people (: We all watched the finale of The Little Nonya together! Horrible ending though. Squaddies still have the bad habit of renting horror movies so I sat through The Strangers with a pillow and zimin's chinese doggy book. I felt the plot was very absurd and outlandish but being the gutless person that I am I was still freaked out. Weikai Edward beside me let out a huge shaky gasp when he thought the masked men were going to appear and I totally screamed. Glad next door didnt kick us out!

K I still owe brytan 6 reflection essays sigh.
