&I'm an addict for dramatics.

I hate recession. Nobody wants to go for fob either 'cause they want to save money or their parents won't let them spend money or they're already spending money on mraz. Money money money, so annoying! I already missed them once, I don't wanna miss them again, but it looks like I'm going to. ):

In other news. going to jeryl's on friday was real fun (and not at all awkward like pig and I thought it would be). At first when both nic and jeryl didn't answer their phones we just stood outside his gate thinking "great, what do we do now? okay let's sit here and beg". but we got in, eventually, and even painstakingly tried to teach pig to play mahjong and daidi. I think we successfully corrupted her to gamble! :D Haha but nothing beats dinner at sakae tampines. I'm so glad I didn't leave early! We came up with so many stupid lines i don't even think I can remember half of them! But yeah I think it started with me. "Let's order." "Okay *press press* OH SHIT IT'S NOT TOUCH SCREEN!" and I think it's not the first time this has happened, oh gosh I'm stupid. Then I bet that if I pressed the screen for long enough someone would come and help me. So the bowlers dared me to do that, said they'd give me a red plate, and I tried! But the waitress looked so pathetically blur and petrified when I asked her "Excuse me is this touch screen?" that I didn't want to continue bullying her and all of them had their heads down laughing till the table was shaking (wtf wtf wtf!) so I just spared her the misery and ordered our chawanmushi.

Anyway it followed with other rubbish like "hi do you have coke? oh then i want sprite." or "hi do you have coke? it's okay i already have a drink." Oh but joke of the night - it just so happens that sakae ran out of egg that day, so we wanted to ask the manager "ISN'T THIS SUPPOSED TO HAVE EGG? YOU SEE THE MENU, GOT EGG! BUT YOU SEE MY CALIFORNIA HANDROLL! GOT NO EGG! I EAT AND EAT BUT STILL CANNOT FIND THE EGG! COME, I SHOW YOU! *unroll* YOU SEE GOT EGG OR NOT? I ORDERED THIS FOR THE EGG! THE EGG IS THE MOST IMPORTANT! *cue china accent* IS IT YOU DISCRIMINATE AGAINST ME BECAUSE I AM NOT LOCAL? THIS IS VERY BAD SERVICE. I COMPLAIN TO CASE!" Yeah but then no one dared to say it. Or rather, none of us could've said it with a straight face. Omg this totally owns the time cheriel and i collected like five wasabi pots and lined them up together on the conveyor belt. Oh speaking of wasabi! We wanted to do this too: *pick up wasabi pot* "EXCUSE ME, WHAT IS THIS? IT LOOKS LIKE MOULD! HOW CAN YOU SERVE MOULD TO YOUR CUSTOMERS! I DON'T CARE IF IT'S FREE OR NOT, WHAT IF THEY GET FOOD POISONING! WHAT KIND OF RESTAURANT IS THIS!"

Yeah anyway, the ultimate goal was to be such public nuisances that we'd get ourselves kicked out after we finished so we wouldn't have to pay for dinner but obviously, that didn't happen. I think they didn't throw us out 'cause they didn't want to lose money. THANK GOD WE DON'T LIVE IN TAMPINES.

ANYWAY, HAPPY CNY FOLKS. GET RICH! :D

I AM DONE WITH CHINESE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE AND I COULDN'T BE HAPPIER
(and the insane people who give me that "wtf why are you happy you got a b3" face can't do anything about that)


2. Penang/KL (where I ate chendol every day and got fat)
Btw, the seafood there is scary big! I held live lobster! And I wanted to eat the big fish, but I don't think they had a pan big enough for the monster. Anyway, the ones above the big fish are like normal-sized fishes, so go figure.

3. because I'm lazy... SIXTEEN CANDLES PHOTOS HERE
I'm really happy. The year's starting really well, like with my belated birthday surprises (thanks darlings!) and chinese Os and all. Thanks for making me walk around town with a bouquet of roses and a big, wild cookie monster helium balloon that attacks people. Thanks for blindfolding me at clarke quay, lying that I'm going on a boat ride then putting me on the gmax reverse bungee. In short, thanks for being awesome. ILY ♥

4. There's more, but it's like 4am now and I have to wake up at 9 later for class gathering and school's starting in one day so I really need to learn to sleep.

I miss having something to do. And i know that sounds totally stupid and masochistic after all the slavedriving rg has put us through, but i seriously don't get how people can bum their whole lives away 'cause i've tried and i certainly can't. Yeah so i try to get a job and do something useful with my life, but because i am god's ultimate joke, i find out after wasting 2 weekends at shangrila for interview/training that i can't work because i'm born on december 31 and that means i'm not officially 16. If you can't already tell, i'm trying very hard not to swear because i'm trying to kick it to become a refined young lady. Oh yeah.

Even though we are completely pathetic at planning our outings, ld outing/sleepover has taught me many things.
1. We can't bowl to save our lives, but cheriel and i secretly rock at para-para
2. Everyone should learn to ride bikes when they are really young and easy to teach
3. Shimin and her tissue paper warriors will give me a heart attack someday

I'm too lazy to go on. Oh just for kicks: (You can so tell she lives in Geylang)

Anyway, breaking news! Shimin and rish learnt to ride bikes! And for the first time in like six or seven years, i rode one too. Shimin and i shared a tandem bike, which for some strange reason she keeps thinking is called a tetra bike. Yeah so the only reason she agreed to this is 'cause i convinced her that taking the back was the best way she'd learn to ride. It was a shaky, scream-filled, life-threatening experience, but undoubtedly fun. Like when we passed rish and tiq on their tandem bike, shimin was all "check us out!" and they screamed "NOOOOO". But the day came with its embarrassments. Since i haven't ridden for ages, i admit i was incredibly unsteady and unnecessarily panicky. So the highlight of the day went something like this:

Shaowei, shimin and i are cycling side by side and suddenly this guy on skates falls and skids right in front of us. We're headed right for him and we can't move 'cause his idiot friends are taking the other lane. So in desperation...
Me: FUCK, MOVE!
Idiot friend: Hahaha that is so freakin' funny!
Because i obviously don't handle stupid situations very well and he finds that hilarious, he slows down to laugh at me and we get space to swerve out and not run over the screwed up guy still splayed on the road. Then i realize my spontaneous stupidity.
Me: Sorryy
And it just has to get better. We decide to break to recover, so when the guys are back on their feet and pass us again...
Me: I'm sorry
Him: Nevermind. Are you okay?
And because this is totally my day and everything is going my way, my hearing decides to fail on me and i hear "ARE YOU GAY?" (like wtf)
Me: NO. Go and die.
Him: Wah lao! Where got like that one!
And after they're off I realise my huge boo-boo.
AHH WHY DO STUPID THINGS ALWAYS HAPPEN TO ME

Oh and tiq's response when i tell her all about my amazing fuck-up.
Tiq: Wait wait were they hot?
Me: No
Tiq: Then it doesn't matter

Classic, i must say. But anyway, the heroes of the day are still rish and shimin. Kudos to them, though rish was the one who learnt to cycle without creating to much destruction. Thank god when the rental guy tested the bike out it had magically fixed itself from shimin's fall.

Check out facebook for the video. It has tiq desperately trying to get rish going and telling her "YOU WON'T DIE" when this little boy suddenly jets past us way fast and we all stare. And though you don't see this, he's actually going around in circles, so he jets past like five times in total when rish has hardly budged and inch. It's incredile, but more demoralizing than anything else. Yeah well, no picture for shimin, just a quote.
Me: Wow shimin I saw you flying there
Shimin: Umm shh, the bike kinda spoilt. I sort of crashed into a tree and the whole bike fell on me! WAH, DAMN PAIN!
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

HILARIOUS IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT, YOU GUYS MAKE MY DAY  :D
