Today is Lunar New Year and also Valentine's day! Don't know if such a coincidence would ever happen again, but anyway it did happen this year, but it worked out just fine for me.

It's always the same old routine every time for me, so nothing much to talk about. The only interesting thing that happened is my bro's hair got burnt off by someone's joss stick at the temple. Like seriously, a bunch of it got fried and broken off. How sad right. My bro doesnt wanna go back there anymore.

Visited cheeseburger's grandmother's house for the first time, where his mom's older and one younger sis was there, and her sister's husband, and his cousins and his grandmother. Gonna take me a while to get used to these new people. It was pretty weird, as expected. I didnt really know what to do and cheeseburger wasnt really helping so i just stoned on the sofa.

His mom fetched us to our Vdae dinner which was alright but not that fantastic[meaning the food was not that great] but anyway it was the company that mattered more!

We only won a snoopy head from prize stage this time, but as usual, we didn't leave empty handed, which would be inauspicious anyway! The machine kept jamming up and getting error, the guy pleaded us to play another machine, so we did.

There wasn't much else to do, cept that cheeseburger ate a lot and is really gonna get fat at that rate!

I'm super sleepy.
I hope these happy days last forever and a year.


so they sailed away for a year and a day...

Yesterday was fun.



Went on Chinatown field trip with a bunch of little wobbly human beings and it was an entertaining experience. quite.



It was fun for the most part, kids scooting away and you, having been assigned 4 of them, had to run after them and drag them back by the threads of their thick orange collars. The weather was stuffy like being trapped in a huge cotton ball but the shops were selling stuffs which shimmered in the light of the sun, a pretty sight to behold one's vision, almost completely blurred from the shadows of sneaking children. Chattering, laughing, squeaking were most of the sound effects heard and nice uncles from candy stores donated candies to us poor starving kids.



The only sad sad sight was of the old lady, which we saw as we turned the corner to the Chinatown MRT lift. The lady had bumped her head, i presume [it is unlikely she fell, as the others said] because her head was leaking blood at the speed of when one fills a bathtub with warm water, but the rest of her was fine. The blood was so much it soaked up an entire hankerchief and a millions tissues and i kid you not, it was trickling down her face like the morning dew off a leaf too weak to hold anymore of that weight.



I was quite traumatised by that incident, close to tears [stopping myself because I was supposed to be a grown up and a 'teacher' and not to appear weak in front of little frightened children]. I just don't understand why the teachers let the children watch. They seemed quite afraid, making tiny comments[she fall down?] in apprehensive tones, like they were afraid the lady would hear them, I don't know why. We moved on soon, after an ambulance was called, and all was well again with the children, the incident seemed to have slipped through the tunnels in their minds and out of their ears in 3 seconds. Maybe it slipped out.. but maybe it was just tucked away into a hidden corner of their minds, ready to escape at any trigger?

oh well, i don't know. Maybe it's better not to ponder so much.


I couldn't sleep last night, as usual, my head was filled with sounds of children talking and teachers shouting. Sigh. I kept telling it to shutup and go away, but it wouldn't and so i didn't sleep. And so my eyeballs are gonna fall out of my sockets in a moment or too.

Wait. This was supposed to be a happy post!

Well, I had a lot of fun yesterday, despite the scary incidents along the way, but it all ended well *schmiles.*

Happy happy day with rongrong and huiwei!

Met them at somerset first and we ate KFC [as usual] and talked rubbish, and then opened presents! Got gao gui shower gel from body shop[whoa can act gao gui until the bottle finish!] and super nice dress! After they made me come out from the toilet cubicle with the dress, both of them wanted to buy one for themselves also. I was too lazy to change out of it so i wore it for the rest of the day.

We migrated to cine to check out movie timings, but were staring at xiurong's colleague's suppper cute pompom animals book for majority of the time. Huiwei checked out timings for cathay at doby on her phone becuz timings at cine didnt quite work out. We ended up going to citylink first cuz huiwei and xiurong wanted to go see if the shop still had the dress they just gave me, but unfortunately, it was crazy crowded and no more of that cutting.

We walked around marina square and huiwei and xr looked at gao gui clothes while i listened to the shop music. Then we went to prize stage by my suggestion! Ultimate waste money shop but awesome fun! We got a super cute rilakuma[holding a cake] on the first try playing the scooping stuff onto tray game [donated to huiwei. oh actually she paid for almost all the tries haha] BUT we spent a crazy amount trying for a cake bear-- failing, most unfortunately. But we were super high playing that game! Huiwei kept screaming, wa i think everyone around her was scared. We were quite lucky a few times, picking up more cake bears, but DROPPING THEM AT THE WRONG TIME!! i think i was too jing zhang!!! We were happy to pick up lots of what we called rubbish, those random small items that helped to push the stuff on the tray slightly, but they had a not too flattering name.

rubbish...

FINALLY, something fell into the hole and guess what it was!! A RUBBISH THING!! a plastic randomly shaped rock, there for the purpose of filling up the machine with random scoopable items. WAAA When we took it out from the chute, we were so hysterical that the couple watching us laughed at us -.- That plastic crap cost more than $7!! Tiann ahhhh... but it was all for the fun of it and we had a super good time [apart from xr complaining her leg very pain.]

We had to find a charles and keith so that i could get my what-did-xiurong-call-it-i forget leather-ish shoes. cuz they were super nice and they make me as tall as my sis. And less by $30. So i went to find my shoes while huiwei looked at her million-th future bag and xiu rong slacked on the seat.

Afters we went to daiso to buy xr's materials to make the cute pompom animals, huiwei in charge of queuing up, xiurong finding felt and me finding yarn. Quite efficient, cuz the queue was indescribably long.

Movie time! I think we were supposed to have a gao gui dinner, but we ended up eating cinema food because there was no time. Nvm we can have our gao gui dinner next time!!! [esp a more strategic time e.g. after i get my FIRST pay... *weeps.*] Giant Popcorn combo with chicken platter and potato wedges. And an overpriced cup corn with butter soup at the bottom each. Needless to say, we didnt finish the popcorn. But anyway we watched 14 swords and it was cool, at the same time, hilarious. The people die with such ridiculous "youuu stabbbbed mee ughh *faints* " faces that the cinema people kept laughing at them!! We bought the tickets 15minutes into the movie so we missed the front, but the story was quite understandable anyhows. Huiwei kept laughing at poor grasshopper guy[Wu Zun] because he looked like an ah beng from singapore. The sky eagles clan, they were called, but they looked like bengz and lianz that stroll in the alleys.

The character designs are quite cool though, reminds me of final fantasy. Oh yes. The people at the back of the cinema burst out laughing when the name of the girl 'tuo tuo' [literally strip strip] was mentioned! They laughed so loud it was funny in itself.

yay!
happy day.

YAY! This year i had one of the most awesomest birthdays ever!!

My office people celebrated for mee!! They are suuuuper nice!! The lady boss left halfway with the sito teacher and i was slacking around when they came back, just getting up from my chair when the lady boss suddenly shoved a bouquet into my face and said happy birthday! I was shocked, stunned, delirious. Okay, no, but i was pleasantly surprised! Sooo nice of them!! [totally contrasting with the evil woman. enough of her!] It was a pink stuffed-roses bouquet of 6 roses. Okay bad sentence. But anyway. sooo kind of them! And there was cake too! awesome tasty choco creamy choco cake! With 19 awesome candles that almost burnt away by the time we got everyone to gather round. And there were baby donuts too!! How apt! I bet none of them actually know cheeseburger calls me donut, yet there were donuts! I was suuper happy. Soo love my working place. Wahahaha.

And then Cheeseburger met me at my workplace's busstop! Albeit half an hour late... but wasnt his fault so nvm! We attempted to walk to my house but he was tooo lazyyy so we took a bus the rest of the way. When we got to my house the lift was under maintanence!! So we had to walk up the stairs... up up up up up up up up. And we got there. Mommy cooked usual noddles [yes noddles, not noodles.] and there was crayfish and cor helped to buy venison too! Dad bought the cake. Awesome cake! Topped with fruits in a myriad colours, iridescent in the rising moonlight! Okay, not THAT cool, but tasty nonetheless. Healthy-ish cake? There are fruits afterall. lollollypop. Cake blowing out was not too good, the wind blewwww 18 candles out so i blew the last one hastily which made marmie erupt into laughter.

Awesome cute presents as well, totoro-esque scheduler [totoro replaced with a cat but same essence from nu], ducky soup cup with cute ladle[from chair!], cute giant ducky named jonathan[from cheeseburger!], origami printed with critter faces [from bro] and birthday wishes from all my treasured happy friends.

I wish happiness to all the great people in the world. Not status kind of great, but heart-beating-more-in-tune-with-the-harmonious-way-of-life-than-others kind of great.

CCCCCC:
too lazy to upload the photos, will probably do so on fb

and donut lovesz cheeseburger lots and lots and lots
updates in the life of pie. i mean, donut.

YES!! FINALLY CAN SEVERE TIES WITH THE EVIL SALAD WOMAN!! GAHH after 2 weeks of no news from her, i called her up on monday to ask her and she TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT IT MAN. And she still had the cheek to ask me to come down and help her cuz one girl took sick leave! WAPIANG. if not for the pay she owed me i would have denied her straight. Pfft. Anway i accepted her plea for me to help 2 hours at the shop. She wanted me to cab down so i did. The cost was $10.40 [BUT the kiam woman only paid me $10. stupid shyt. i'm dam pissed cuz shes sucking my money even if its just 40cents and she REQUESTED for me to take a dam cab. why cant she just pay for it in full??? i may sound kiam but she is kiammer!! she's earning like shytloads from ripping people off.]

Anyway, i worked for 3.5 HOURS FOR HER, NOT 2 dam hours which she claimed. What a toot! I called her at 3 cuz she said she'll meet me at the place, and i was only supposed to be there 2 hours. PIANG EH she said she will only come at 430!!! She think everyone so free issit??? GAHHH i still had to go teach tuition in the night!! Thanks to her i didnt even get dinner. RAH.

So she came at 430. AND acted confused and innocent about my miscalculated pay, happily rounding up all the 1/2 hours extra i worked to shortchange me $1.40, which could have paid for my dam transport home since she asked me to go to that stupid place. She was only willing to pay 1/4 of what cheeseburger claimed she owes him, but i have no idea about his records cuz they were kinda confusing, so i didn't argue too much. Just so fed up with dealing with fake people like her.

I hate that place.

this is such an awful post, i shall post my nicer stuff in another more pleasant post. ergh.
