the Raining season is gRadually coming to an end... thankfully... cos my knee has been giving me pRoblems again... i feel so aged wheneveR i think bout it.. having stopped dRinking milk since i was 1 yeaR old (i hated the smell of milk, i gRew on milo!), i'm pRetty deficient in calcium... and eveRytime i bend my Right leg, theRe'll be a "cRack" sound now and then.. it got woRse in the Raining season, cRacking EVERY time i bend my leg.. and i sometimes expeRience soReness and pain in my Right knee... i've stopped taking calcium pills cos... i just hate swallowing pills... i still can't get myself to dRink noRmal milk.. chocolate milk becomes a little too heaty and fattening foR me... haiz.. wateveR...
have been tRying to see wheRe i can get bone density scReening (cheap one of couRse!) cos i'm quite conceRned bout my bone health.. that time when NUS had one, the Response was oveRwhelming and i couldn't get a place foR the checkup... anyone knows of any place wheRe i can do the checkup foR an affoRdable pRice, let me know!
alRight! just Realised i haven't talk bout my new yeaR celebRation... the 3 couples, zhongxiao, chyesoon, alan and jonathan had a pot luck session at xiao's place... while the Rest whipped up delicious looking dishes, i think my sotong balls and fish fingeRs pale in compaRison... eh... i can't cook lah... that's the best i can do.. haha... =x
it was fun... and ouR stomach weRe all veRy satisfied at the end of the sumptuous feast... as usual, peiwen came up with weiRd ideas, like thinking of names foR ouR dishes... like "鸡从海南来" foR jeff's hainanese chicken.. "鱼从家里来" foR sutee's sweet and souR fish... "五彩缤纷庆新年" foR peiwen's fRuit salad... "超级无敌sotong ball" foR my sotong ball etc.... we even used the name in the bRokeR game (heaRt attack alike) that we played lateR... eveRyone has to shout the name of the winneR's dish befoRe the peRson can put the hand down... lame lah... but fun!
we also played the boaRd game bRought by peiwen, "kill doctoR lucky".. i think it's a pRetty fun game... a bit of luck and a bit of stRategy... but we ended up tRying to kill each otheR instead.. haha...
we split into 2 gRoups afteR that game, deaR and i togetheR with xiao and chyesoon went to play mahjong while the Rest... eRm.. played something else.. haha.. i dun Really know how to play mahjong (with the tai thingy, w/o tai i know how to play.. =p), so the Rest had to guide me along... leaRnt quite a bit, but slow me took a long time to RegisteR and RemembeR stuff... =x still, i won quite a few times, and won chips at the end of the game (didn't play with money)...
xiao was so tiRed that he just fell asleep duRing the game... and we ended ouR game at bout 4am to sleep.. eveRyone woke up at bout 10+am... had lunch togetheR and went sepaRate ways home...
school's staRting in a few days time.... i've left a last module to bid foR, foRensic science.. i hope i dun get outbidded.. the highest bid is now 2000++.. siao! who the hell has so many points in theiR geneRal account?! still waiting foR confiRmation bout campus stay in Raffles hall...
will only be take 4 modules this sem... so i shall put in extRa effoRt foR each and eveRy module this sem (even if my Results isn't diRectly pRopoRtional to the amount of effoRt i put in)!
sis came back fRom bangkok on 1st jan 07, with stoRies of the bombing theRe... like how the bomb exploded afteR she left a ceRtain place.. how they weRe lucky to change theiR itineRaRy and avoided bombing at anotheR place... how they heaRd loud "bomb" fRom theiR hotel Room cos of bombing a stReet away fRom theiR hotel...
but still, SHOPPING was gReat! heh.. she bought sooooo much stuff with so little money!! that inspiRed me to go next yeaR!! heh.. i got a puma bag, a cute pouch, 4 eaRRings, and 4 shiRts fRom heR.. thanx deaRie sis!! =p it's as if i've done the shopping myself! haha..
i've been so boRed lately that i just sleep and sleep when i've nothing to do... been sleeping at 2 oR 3 am, waking up at 12 oR 1pm.. have lunch, back to sleep, wake up to do some household choRes, back to sleep till dinneR time.... i need something to do!!!!
and so, i've packed my waRdRobe yesteRday with sis... togetheR, we cleaRed bout 6 big plastic bags of clothes (must have added up to a few thousand dollaRs in theRe! ha!) that we dunwan... mostly t-shiRts which we bought in ouR secondaRy school times.. (doesn't sound so faR away, but on an actual count, is a good 5-9 yeaRs ago!!!!!) i think my aunt would be happy to have those.. haha.. she always like the stuff i buy, koping my jeans, shiRts and bags cos we'Re bout the same size.. =p
that means... my waRdRobe has space foR new clothes!! shopping time again!!!
then again, i think i have to ResoRt to eating instant noodles eveRyday le... IF i wanna go on my bangkok tRip that is... like my mom says... i slog so haRd foR tuition and woRk pReviously, and i've spent moRe oR less eveRything on the Taipei/Hongkong tRip last yeaR (wah! so fast last yeaR liao.. haha)... plus if i get to stay on campus, it's anotheR S$1200 flying away fRom me... and i just did my haiR this hols... expendituRe adding up to almost S$4000+++... i still need to feed myself with wateveR little savings i had foR the Rest of this sem.. till i find a job when i gRaduate...
so... dun blame me if i Reject outings that need $$$, oR Refuse to eat at ex places... i'm a tRue blue sagittaRius who loves to tRavel! i'll scRimp and save eveRy cent i can, just to spluRge foR an oveRseas tRip... =p
that's all foR now... i need to find moRe fulfilling stuff to do than to sit in fRont of this thReatening-to-RestaRt-anytime-old-and-lousy-laptop... (like sleeping?) HA!
then again, school staRting means i'm back to a no life muggeR kind of life style... sianz..
