Life...and other afflictions

The rantings and uninteresting events of my life

I'm 21! I don't know whether to be happy or not. I don't think I ever wanted to be an adult and deal with all the responsibilities that come along with it. I mean yeah...right...the thought of being able to get married without parents' approval is so exciting..NOT. I mean I suppose the best part is getting to watch R21 films...but erm, to be honest, I can watch all these same shows in Germany without having to be 21..just have to be 12. Haha.

Today was a nice day. Not like party party all the way, but I had a pleasant day. Was sleeping in Fu Wei's room last night, cos friends of a friend came over to stay and since I didn't wanna sleep in the same room as two guys, I asked Fu Wei if I could sleep in her room. And this morning, I was awoken by a phone call from my mummy!! :) So happy...although I was still half asleep. They're gonna get me a birthday cake when I get home! Yay! I didn't have a cake today. I was too lazy to bake one. Had been baking quite a lot in the past few months...didn't buy bananas...so couldn't make my fave banana cake. Banana and pineapple cake is really nice...very very fragrant!

I got an sms from Sherry, Obi and Pudgy. (No, just one..from all 3) and that was about it for a while. Then I got one from Jiat Ling. Thanks!! And thanks for calling me too! You're the best! Ying Han smsed me. And tried to call...but didn't know the ringing tone from the engaged tone. :P Haha. Sorry man..the ringing tone in Germany sounds exactly like an engaged tone. I must ask pple what the engaged tone sounds like though. I don't think I've ever gotten that before. I received Kheng Hui's card today too. Just on time! :)Thanks!

I cooked Ba Kut Teh for lunch and had it with Fu Wei. We also had rice with Lap cheong and some fried veggie. I used to think that I hated Ba Kut Teh, but it's not that bad actually, I think. Maybe when you leave Singapore for so long, it's like that. You begin to like stuff that you weren't very fond of.

Then I erm...packed my room...and then I watched "The Champion" VCDs...actually wanted to go online and check mails, but the internet connection was really like shit. Always got very weak internet for a few seconds, then nothing...so actually, you can't do anything of any use. Then watched VCDs and tried to fiddle with the computer...and ended up nearly LATE for my dinner appointment! I bathed and RAN down to the tram stop...with my hair soaking wet. Which is not a good thing to do considering the temp was like -5 deg C. I think my hair was turning into ice! And guess what? I FORGOT my wallet AGAIN!! So dumb! No semester ticket and no money. Damn it! I was like shivering in fear that I'd meet a conductor. The fines are exorbitant! Then when I got to the stop I was supposed to get off, I had to pee...like crazy! But my friend wasn't there yet. And I tried calling him twice...but he didn't pick up! So I called another friend who lived one stop away, if I could go to her place to use the toilet. Just then, I saw my friend, Max. We practically ran to the restaurant, cos I had to pee so badly. But the restaurant is cool. The food was pretty good and the atmosphere too. We ended up staying there for 4 hours. He gave me a great present, for someone whom I've only met twice before. It was this perfume called "Pink Planet". It's pink *duh*...so I like the colour already. The bottle is in the shape of a globe. Very interesting (but no Singapore on it). And it smells GREAT! Well...I like it anyway. :)That's like a super good guess man! I got a Winnie the Pooh CD case from Fu Wei. SO Super CUUUTE! And Mai gave me star earrings that are pink and blue! I love all my presents so far. No candles or bodywash/shampoo please! I have enough of those. :) How about goggles or flippers? Please help me fulfil my dream of swimming every day when I'm in Singapore. Hahaha! I just ordered a swimsuit. Hope it fits man. I know it's not the one that the people I surveyed chose, but hey...I'm into boring black. Don't have the figure to wear the blue one...I'd look like a hmm..stuffed blue sausage. And the purple one...well..maybe I prefer a one-piece to hide my scar and other flaws. But erm...probably cannot really hide anything in a swimsuit. Urgh. That's why I like swimming in my pool. No one to see me in a swimsuit. :) What else would I want? I dunno. I like surprises...but not a 2005 calendar. I have 2 already. No organizers either. Also have a lot of those. No mugs either...but stuffed toys, accessories and stuff are ok. You can never have too many of those. How about a gym membership? That would be an excellent present...but too ex lah. SIgh. Haha...sorry..this is the wrong place to put my list. The people who asked me what I wanted for my birthday don't usually read my blog. Oh well...just to air it out.

Oh well...let's see what it's like to be 21. Hope it's fun and i won't regret it. :)
