I wanted to blog about death the other day, but got too tired when I got home. Yes, I suddenly thought about death over lunch the other day while I was eating alone. It was quite an eleborate ‘chat’ with myself..even had tears welled up my eyes as I thought about the things I want to do before I die and regrets.
The week was alright, passed sooner and easier than I thought. I went for the wedding dinner of my new colleague on Friday. Then it was Starbucks work on Saturday morning. Been working two Saturdays mornings straight, which means my weekends got shorter.
I watched ‘The Nanny Diaries’ just now, starring Scarlett Johansson. I really liked it actually. I don’t consider it as a flick..it’s a really heartwarming film, I actually cried after watching it.
It’s back to work tomorrow. It’s raining heavily now. The make-do scoccer/cricket field downstairs is almost a swimming pool already. I have been thinking about this for a while..what happens to all the insects like ants when the field floods? I am pretty sure they don’t die.
I cut my hair, it’s too cutesy looking for my liking. Most of my friends liked it..but I look 10 years younger. I already look 15, don’t need that extra youth.
I was watching ‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall’ and they mentioned the state fish of Hawaii. I thought it was a joke..but no, there’s really a state fish, the Reef Triggerfish called:
Humuhumunuku-nukuapua ‘a (in Hawaiian)
pronounced as: hoomoo-hoomoo-nookoo-nookoo-a-poo-a-a

Added this storage pockets on my wall to hold my accessories. My necklaces always get tangled up together. Nice addition to the empty wall behind my door as well.
The weekend is over. What can I say? That sucks.
I am frustrated. I am frustrated over why it gets so frustrating. Why I get so frustrating?
My next working is Wednesday. That would mean staying at home till Wednesday I think.
I don’t know..I used to go out everyday but somehow (or maybe I am subconsciously trying to get myself into that working lifestyle mode) the weekdays become stay home and only weekends are meant for going out.
Well, the job hunt hasn’t been going well. I am going to try looking in newspapers from tomorrow onwards.
Friday night was at Jon’s place for the VSC gathering which compromises of less than one quarter of the VSC ‘05 cohort as usual. Jon has the most amazing house I ever seen, it’s a real jungle, as it an actual jungle. I had never imagine a house could look like this..you will think you walked into a souvenir shop in Africa or something. It’s the coziest home I ever been to. I saw so many Martha Stewart house decorating tips happening there!
Today was television the whole day as usual. I was watching a Hong Kong TV series on cable. I just found out they have some free sample series to watch on cable. Woo! I managed to catch ‘Wall.E’ before it ends in cinema with JJ. Awww it’s so cuteee!
And go check out the new ipod nano, I am going to get it! Maybe next, next month since I am saving up for my next getaway trip.
I feel and suddenly felt now is a good time to be catching up with people.
I spent the whole entire day today watching TV.
I woke up at 1.30pm, lunching while watching TV then I watched ‘Private Practice’ on TV the entire day and I watch ‘Captain Sky and the World of Tomorrow’ which I enjoyed thoroughly.
I actually don’t mind spending wasting (some call it) an entire Sunday (and probably only Sundays) watching TV. I had my chocolates and marshmellows with me. However, I think it’s always more fun to watch it with someone. I love movie/shows marathons with someone.
I actually feel like watching a movie tomorrow, I was thinking of watching it alone since I can’t seem to find someone to go with me but then the getting the ticket part is quite dreadful..
I want to do something tomorrow, I don’t feel like staying at home, maybe some fish shopping again.
Why? Why is everyone in NS?
My hands smells like crab, cos I had that for dinner.
The family sat down and watch the Olympics ping pong final match between China and Singapore. We looked out of our living room window and could clearly see everyone’s TV switched on to that match.
We lost, kind of expected isn’t it? Those two representing China are world champions. And it’s quite a awkward match. The girls representing Singapore are all from China and our Singapore couch who is from China is the brother of the China couch. They were both present at the match obviously. It’s awkward..so it’s just pure China against China.
Why? Why is Singapore so persistent in making a name for themselves in sports when all their talents are from overseas? I should be using ‘our’ instead but I am kind of torn you see, I am born in Hong Kong which belongs to China. I admire China’s sports men and women really, the determination and endurance.
I have been having cravings. Food cravings I mean like desserts and junk food.
One of the closest people to my heart, Audrey John Benedict of Toa Payoh Lorong 6, is leaving on Wednesday for Perth for studies.
And this is finally it, she is leaving on Wednesday. And we (together with Perryn) did manage to spent quite a lot of money doing several things.
On Friday, we went to ‘3 Monkeys Bar’ at Orchard Tower. It’s a stand up comedy place with Kumar performing. He was really, really awesome. He targets every race and religion so no one gets left out.
After then it was ‘Acid Bar’ with a cute waiter serving us. Yes he was quite cute Audrey, it wasn’t the Choya or Johnny Walker’s effects.
And yesterday, Saturday, we headed to ‘Le Fondue’ for cheese fondue which was so, so, good but also very wonderfully priced. And then at was ‘House’ for dessert and drinks.
And the night ended with supper at ‘Punggol Nasi Lemak’ with the boys and girls of the north east and east.
I felt like I wrote a compo. I don’t like Sundays. And I won’t be liking Wednesdays soon :(
