Gerald is a pig. He can sleep through anything! This morning, my spastic neighbour came at 640am to tell me that my washing machine is leaking water into her house, and sent the caretaker to fix it. So amidst all the knocking, banging, talking, Gerald didn't even stir!!! He win!
Anywayz, I am very annoyed at said neighbour. Like, which retard wakes up at 6am in the morning on a Saturday?! Hello?! Then, calls the caretaker to fix the problem at 6+ in the morning; does she think that everyone owes her a living??? Then of course, is coming to other people's house at 640am to take my kitchen apart, talk rubbish to me which I don't really remember any content at all, and tell me to change my washing machine which is really working fine so far. Worst of all, she asked me if I was alright! Of course I am not alright!!! You woke me up at 640am! To tell me to call the housing agent on a Saturday to change the washing machine!!! -_- Spastic!

Went for Basketball training today. I feel like I've been gang-raped; my ass hurts so bad that I cant sit properly and when I stand, my knees feel weak. Super unfit!
Am going to the gym more often. :) My arms are so fat they droop. Like Droopy's cheeks!

Do you ever feel that sometimes people are your friends not because they like you, but it helps? The rapid ascension from insignificant to greatly desired.
I've been reading a lot of books since I got back to London. Want to finish all the storybooks that I've bought, and increase my pathetic vocabulary. :) Very ambitious year ahead of me, with loads to achieve.
Anyway, in my attempt to increase my vocabulary, I came across this super cute and useful phrase! You know how I like to go online shopping? Well, if you bought it without having first seen it and it turned out to be a disappointment, you can say 'the stupid top I bought online turned out to be a pig in a poke'! So cute, right!!!!
Went to Ikea today, finally! I really like Ikea because they always have very nice useless things. Perfect for Joan! :D
Bought 1 coffee press to replace our broken bodum one, 2 sauce plate, 2 sushi plate in anticipation of future sushi making (to quote Gerald, 'You're making sushi, right?' to justify the 2 sushi plates), shower curtains to replace the one that Gerald tore (please don't ask me how; suspects kinky bathroom action while I was away), slip mats for the bath tub, lint roller because it was cheap, measuring cups because they were cute and too cheap to resist, wall mirrors for my vanity, and 2 plastic bags because they don't give out free plastic bags for you to carry whatever you've bought.
I'm actually quite surprised at how little we've bought!
Unfortunately, Tesco Extra was just opposite Ikea; just for the people who don't know, Tesco is a supermarket. Tesco Extra is a huge warehouse excuse for a supermarket where it sells everything and could positively feed a whole town during wartime. So we got excited because this was the first time we saw Tesco Extra; ended up buying more groceries than household stuff that we had planned to get from Ikea.
School starts tomorrow. First class, statistics! How exciting. This year will be my most hardworking year. I think I will appreciate school life a lot more now after my internship because no matter how bad you think school life is, it cannot beat working life!!! :)
Am in UK now - got back on Sunday; had to lug 40kg of items back home all by myself! Was so scared on the way home because there were some areas that were quite dark, and I knew I couldn't possibly run with the amount of things on my back. But got home safely, thanks to myself and my newfound courage. :)
The internet in my house is finally working! YAY! Finally, no thanks at all to the amazing lack of efficiency of the service sector here. It's kind of ironic they call it the service sector when there is no service at all.
Anywayz, I am addicted to cosmetics! :) Went to school today with make up on and got a few praises, so my head is kind of big now. Heehee. I love little pots of makeup. :) But they're kind of expensive too so I'll have to try to control myself and only buy them on special occasions.
I've lost some of my holiday weight! In two days! :) I'm back on normal meal sizes and frequency so hopefully, I'll soon be back to normal size. That aside, I've paid for so many things today, so I'm really broke. Signed up for gym, going to pay for language centre tomorrow, then apply for driving lessons soon. I'm going to be very smart this year!
I'm really kind of tired of being brainless, ignorant and always being so unmotivated; so I shall make a change to my life this year. I'm going to be the smartest kid in the neighbourhood, the hottest babe on the street, and the wisest erm, woman on the mountain? I don't know, I always associate wise people with sitting on top of the mountain for some reason.
I haven't been blogging as frequently as I used to before my internship. As it is, I heard that some banks go through the blogs of their interns or applicants to check them up so it wasnt really a wise idea to be telling the world what you are exactly thinking about.
Now that internship is over, I have lost a certain sense of that excitement in blogging. Why am i blogging? It is not a form of keeping memories, but rather displaying to the world what you wish they would think that you are. It is a lie when you say you want a private place to rant and let it all out; the truth is you want someone to hear your rantings. You want someone to read about you, look at you, hear you.
I tried to write intelligently for some time, and realised that it wasn't really me but what we hope others would think. Trying to defend for ourselves through words that we think would portray us as intelligent beings to others; to shield ourselves from being recognised by the masses as absolute retards. The thing is, we are not as smart as we think. Somewhere, somehow, someone is laughing at your attempt to sound smart and they could see exactly what you are trying to do.
For my last year in University, this will be my last attempt at childishness before entering the adult world; I shall keep true to myself, enjoy random rantings and idiotic comments while I still can without every word being held down by responsibilities.
The insane consumption pattern has resulted in lumpy cellulite on the ass, hips, and thighs. I can practically see the fat cells protruding from the skin, which has expanded to such an extend that it is near the verge of tearing. Why am i so greedy??
On the other hand, only have 4 more days to gorge, so will try not to think about it. :)
Have been home for one week actually; spent most of the time with my family and alone. I have been a hermit, I admit, this time round; haven't asked anyone out. I really needed the time to rest and sit with myself, spend some time with my family, which was the main reason why i came home anyway, and be a little more normal again.
Totally stocked up on good food since I came back. I can't remember a single day home that I haven't been stuffing my face with food. :) I love singapore food - you can never have enough of them!! Have gained 2kg since I got home, but I don't really care. I won't get to eat them anymore for sometime soon!!
Spent some time strolling around, window shopping then sitting down in Yakun to have a breather of iced kopi with some kaya toast. Pondered about absolutely nothing. I really like sitting in cafes, reading a thick novel and not having to worry about tomorrow. Well, for now anyway. I feel a little more normal now.
Other than that, most nights are dedicated to the family. Watching tv serials, jabbing fun at my dad's huge tummy, and going for a dinner together like we used to. :) Otherwise, it's going for lunch with the sis in an attempt to sponge on her as much as I can. Treated the family and godfamily to a seafood dinner - totally broke now, but totally worth it because everyone was so happy. :) I think some money are worth spending larh.
I sort of miss my 4 computer screens, watching the numbers change rapidly with news headlines scrolling nonstop right before me. Haven't been following the news much ever since my internship ended - which I think I should. Shall make an effort to keep up again. :)
