well, HAPPY CHINESE NIU YEAR! (its moomoo's year, yes it is. hahax^^)
things that have happened so far...
- i got my pay from mr. eric idontcareifigetlungcanceraslongaseveryoneelsegetsitwithme ng. not disclosing sum till total tally, which includes freaking toysrus's. that's it, im complaining. every week.
-reunion dinner with cousins on both sides
- LAST MINUTE SHOPPING for new clothes on cny eve,(which proves how desperate i was) which yielded positive results. best part is,
a) im going to design my new shirts,
b) i paid for it all with my own pay ^^
c) 5 shirts and 1 khaki for s$50. which is about 8.125% of my pay, actually.
hahax im so excited to be able to design my new attire! nah, mostly excited just to be able to wear new stuff - recycling the same clothes over and over again, esp when they're school shirts, can get pretty boring.
not saying that my school shirts are dull, au contraire, even the house tee's pretty much a hip shirt, isnt it? kudos to the smart pple who designed it.^^
and, finally: shopping with my sisters rocks. for so many weeks ive been window shopping for a pair of decent khakis, to no avail. but in the end i bought the first thing that lynn pulled out of the rack. o.0 i just dont have the knack for shopping, i guess.
-visiting grandmothers on both sides! im glad this sunday we're going to ah sims house for laksa party again, because we totally didnt get to bond yesterday. all were too busy tucking in to pat-grandma's noodles/porridge. and, im going to make special effort to bond with cousins. its precisely because there are so few of us, we should treasure each other more. yes? yes.
infact, i shall try to bond more with the people i meet this year. eq will definitely come in handy come next week anyway, may as well start now. i'll do my best not to be anti-social, because as comfortable as that sounds, that kind of people just care about their own feelings, not the feelings of others. I SHALL TRY TO MAKE PEOPLE FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE :) though sometimes i feel my face just ruins all of people's first good impressions of me. it can get pretty black when there's nobody to smile for. but whatever.
-watching wall-e! finally. i cried watching wall-e, which sounds absolutely nuts and bipolar-ish, but that's what happened. besides the fact that wall-e and eva's love story was so heart-achingly touching, it was also the miserable sorry-ass humans that got me crying. is it possible that the human species could degenerate into such a sorry state? when they started walking for the first time, i really wanted to cry/laugh again. crap. in anycase, it was a very hopeful ending.^^ i feel producers could have come across more strongly with the environmental message, there's certainly potential to use wall-e as a mascot for future conservational activities. i really believe so.
ok, gotta go for another visit. I SHALL BE SOCIABLE. ^^ -injects some botox of the mind-
cya.
