Day 129

guess wad? i gt an email from coles saying my application has progressed to the next stage of the recruitment process =) meaning i may get a chance of being interviewed! but... but.. a BIG but there.. i realised i made a boo boo. the place i included in my list of locations to work at was quite inaccessible by bus. each bus comes at an HOURLY interval and there are no bus services on saturdays, sundays and public holidays. wad a bummer! just wad i DUN NEED.. haiz.. and i need approximately an hr plus to get there cos i need to change to a 2nd bus. =( so... sadly, i had to withdraw my application. i just hope they would reconsider me for other places.. *pray pray very hard* caren.. good luck to u too! hope coles will consider u =)

amanda highlighted her hair brown today. always the first person in our household to try new things. i didnt notice till we almost finished dinner. my mum didnt realise either until i mentioned it. mmm wad got me real sad was i recalled we were supposed to go watch kungfu panda tmr, my sisters and i. but amanda said she already planned to watch it with her friend tmr. haiz haiz HAIZ.. i was soooo looking forward to watching it. and she had to spoil it. i planned tis movie with her earlier than her friend!!! her friends matter more to her or me? i find that we must always find something to argue about every single day. and why is that?! anyway, she has no idea how i feel. she always speaks as if she knows everything and insists she's correct when she's wrong. she shoots without considering my feelings, of how scared i am. NO... she has no idea.. my sister has changed alot, ever since she started working. and im afraid of this change. not only me. my mum and sisters too. she tends to be moody and unpredictable. and nobody can get around to talking to her cos' she BITES. she doesnt listen.. so tell me amanda, wad can i do? =( do u realise how everyone is feeling?

Day 126

haha im so free yet i haven been blogging.. =p feel so damn lazy.. wahaha.. anyway, this is wad happened over the past wk.

on sat evening, we had steamboat again =) lots of food this time and more variety than b4. yum yum!

on monday, i went to UWA with my mum and sisters to watch my youngest sister perform her dance event. it was a dance festival put up to bring together the dances of 3 colleges. there were altogether 20 dances that night. my sister's school had to do 10 of them. somemore all of them chereographed by one dance teacher! i wonder how she can manage to remember all the steps. but their dance performances were not as entertaining as the other 2 schools. the dancers lacked lifeliness. they danced as if something sucked the soul out of them. they danced like robots man. see their face u aso get turned off. they display a 'can't be bothered' face expression. who wants to see them dance?! aiyo.. however, there was one dance that was good. it was one that told a story about several women who killed their husbands because they were unfaithful to them. i find it quite interesting.. my sister was in a dance called 'errtime'. she was stunning. she looks so innocent, sweet and pretty with her makeup and performing attire. she was one of the smallest and skinniest gal in her group. and might i add, one of the better dancers. im serious! the rest dance like shit.. i told her not to wear those black flats of hers cos' it was loose. and guess wad? one shoe slipped off while she danced halfway and then the other one came off a while later. haha.. at the end of the performance, when everyone of her friends went back to the curtains, she ran to pick up both her shoes and the audience was laughing at her cute-ness. hehe.. that's my sister.. so adorable..

these were pictures taken on the way to sharon's concert. it was approximately 5.45pm then.. and the sun was already setting. by 6pm, it's dark..

group photo without sharon cos' she was in the changing room..

on wednesday night, amanda had to slap me on my forehead in the middle of the night, which i screamed and made my mum wake up. sharon even said she heard the slap. erghhhhhhh!!!! i felt like hitting her back! and u noe wad. she doesnt even noe she hit me. she was sleeping like a log. sry maybe not log, but pig snoring. i had trouble getting back to slp amidst all the snoring la..

on thursday, i went to carousel to hand in some resumes. i applied for 4 jobs online and handed in resumes to 6 others in that shopping centre. well, i just received an email from a job i applied online yesterday. i was unsuccessful =( i nv did like the feeling of being rejected. especially just one day later. haiz.. let's just wait and see whether i'll get accepted by any of the remaining 9 jobs ba.. i have a feeling i wouldnt stand a chance for any one of them. haiz.. on that night, i was hopping to get some good sleep after the long walk i had that day. but yet again, amanda woke me up with her 'famous' arm swinging. it hit me on my eye but luckily i quickly woke up and siam abit. if nt it wld have been a bad hit. GGGRRRRRR! i almost had it already la! i swear if she's gonna hit me again tonight, i'll just fight back. i've been having sleepless nights becos of her. why must i slp in the same room as 2 other snoring pple!!! took me an hr to get back to slp lea =( =( =(
i finished a bk todae. that's the 3rd bk i finished reading in a wk. onto the 4th now. i didnt realise bks were so entertaining besides dvds. i guess that's all that has been keeping me busy these few days. so boring... the weather's been pretty bad. it rained almost the whole day today. wearing 4 pieces of clothes does not help much and i feel so restricted in movements when wearing them. anyway, im guessing it'll get worse. *sigh.. i hate cold weathers. i should just stick back to s'pore ba.

i've a pelican at the pond near my place. heex.. it has always been there. by itself.. so lonely.. lol..

Day 118

winter is getting more and more atrocious by the day.. i've never ever heard the temperature reaching as low as 1.5 degrees before! haiz.. the previous night it was 2 degrees. tis winter is going to be just 'great'. -.-" plus winter is not even at its 'peak' yet u noe.. see wad global warming is doing! making the hot even HOTTER and the cold even COLDER..

i've been relaxing so much these few days. it feels good! but not that good.. cos' it's boring. i wake up at about 11 plus 12 everyday. i beat my record todae and slept till 1pm! HAHA.. wad a pig u are charmaine.. but of cos my mum wun allow me to stay at home all day. i've been making trips to the nearby shopping centre to do groceries with her.. oh and i've got my "wang zi bian qing wa" taiwanese serial to watch. damn nice la the show! i used up a whole roll of tissue paper just to wipe up my tears. u shld ask my mum and sis to tell u how i cry. i bet ya all they can tell u is, horrible.. lol.. and nv to watch romantic comedy movies with this lady. haha.. i wonder, tv shows always portray such romantic scenes. will such things happen in real life too?

i feel so lazy to find myself a job.. i keep on telling myself to only find a job after i do the scheduling of my nxt sem's timetable online on the 24th june. cos' only then can i let my future boss noe when i'll b available. mmm.. should i wait? i cant believe im done with yr 1 and on to the 2nd yr.. time passes quite fast, to my amazement. but not fast enuff for me apparently, cos im missing home all the time.. and u guys =)

i swear tis is the first time i'm eating nasi lemak in perth. oh my gosh.. their chilli is unbelievably good! makes me feel like i'm back in s'pore =) however, sad to sae, tis is the ONLY s'porean food here that i've tried that is nice. the others cant even make the mark. my mum was surprised when i told her tis is amanda and my first time eating nasi lemak here. she said my uncle's family buys it from that same shop too. well, apparently they buy the good stuff for themselves and forget abt us. oh wells, tis isnt the first time i noe them. im used to it..

we had a "sinful" dinner todae. sorry papa =p somemore grandma not around to cook for u since she's on a long holiday, and u have to buy back to eat. poor thing. oh, mama cooked us steak!! see that gorgeous arrangement of food >.<

Day 115

oh yes! exams are over.. =) im free from all the studying, the stress, the pimples. i got so many things to do now.. find a job. maybe 2 jobs during the holidays. take my driving theory test. and maybe take practical driving lessons after tt. *the driving lessons here are freaking expensive!!!

haha.. i found the time to read everyone's blogs. and man! i missed out alot. all of ur lives are so colourful.. so many events unfolding.. and mine is just drop-dead boring.. if u ask me how many friends i made in uni, i can tell u there's nt many.. my uni life is just day in day out of uni, and home. nothing much. with projects and tests. boring me.. sometimes i wonder to myself, do i really want to live my life this way? to regret i didnt do anything much during my teenage years. when i hear how my 2nd sis spends her time (job, rowing CCA, friend outings), i cant help but feel a tinge of jealousness. but who can i blame? myself.. blame myself for not being as extroverted as her.. for being so afraid to open up to others as easily and confident as she can.. that's how she can make so many friends and i don't. but im glad the friends i have i can depend on.. and that's all that matters. but i still feel bad. is my uni life going to be that dull?

i read so many versions of my JC class' steamboat.. it puts a smile on my face when i read it and how much fun they had.. but at the same time, my heart wrenches to noe im not there to participate in the joy and laughter
=( and not forgetting food.. my sec sch peeps go out once in a while too.. haiz.. im so envious of everyone..

Day 107

ok my last entry before my exams start on this coming tuesday.. i had a gardisil vax jab just a few days ago.. it's for prevention of cervical cancer. for gals btwn the age of 6-26. after tt it's ineffective alr.. and no, it's not for guys, oni for gals. haha.. aiyo how blur can i get? ask such a stupid qsn - "is the jab available for guys too?" HAHA!

and yeh! i finally changed my slping position of the bed. i was having difficulty slping the past few nights cos amanda has "blessed" me with her continuous kicking and slapping of my face. not once, but MANY TIMES THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT! and she "squashes" me against the wall. it's a queen size bed! and i oni get space the size of... ME.. slpin straight -.- gosh.. i can't even have a proper slp.. morn wake up feel like nv slp at all.. worse still, my mum and amanda snores. so i've to take at least an hr to fall to slp. haiz.. at least with me slping in the middle and amanda against the side of the wall, im just stuck with having to bear with their snoring. haa! but tt means i still need at least an hr to get to slp.. haiz.. i was actually laughing deep inside me when she hit herself against the wall halfway through the night. haha.. so evil hor.. =p

we had steamboat for lunch todae. it was awesome! hot food in winter. really the answer to all ur prayers! haha.. so sinful man. we're having steamboat just the day b4 our exams start. haha.. we had fuzhou fishball, japanese udon, campignon, tanghoon, seaweed, minced meat, tau pok and the flat fishmeat or fishcake (dunno wad issit called), cabbage and to top it up, sambal chilli! ooph! delicious! we were so bloated that we cant eat much for dinner. there were so much leftovers =)
