Randomness

This is really so my Mom.

The Most Embarrassing Thing that Could Happen to a Star

Me: "Who's THAT?"

Jo: "Doh. The one who sang "I Kissed a Girl". Going all lesbianic and stuffs."

Me: "And she likes it."

At this point, Katy Perry jumped into the cake and I grimaced.

Me: "The cake doesn't look right. It's totally hard! OH MY GOD! It's just icing at the top!!! Oh, rewind that! Look at her expression when she hit the cake! That must have hurt!"

Jo: "Oh YEAAAH!! HAHAHAHA!" (rewinds at least 5 times)

Me: "She looks like she had a mind to jump into the cake right at the start when she started stripping from her gown to her pyjamamama. What a cunning cake. Somebody probably wants her dead."

Jo: "She's trying too hard to be sexy."

Me: "It failed."

Jo: "Haha, look at her drag herself out! Karma. Tried to get that guy."

Me: "What an embarrassment..."

Pervase

No I’m not happy to see him. I was just but getting amused trying to get his picture discreetly as possible. I always seem to spot this same pervert around somehow or rather.

If you see this guy following you around, please scream at him to back off.

Tropic Thunder!

Despite the controversies surrounding this film, I say it’s one of the best comedies I ever watched!

“I know who I am! I’m da doood playin' da doooood disguised as another doooood!”

Hahaha! Love his Jive talk.

Sadly...

in life, you gain some, and you lose some. That is just the way it is...

On happier thoughts, it also meant that when you lose some, you will gain some.

How do Words Taste Like?

I read this old entry of mine that was written in 2006, and I really have to eat those rotten words. It COULD definitely get worse.

Getting hospitalized is definitely not a pretty thing too. Thin, greasy and falling hair, paleness that makes a ghost blush, and for me – bloatedness. Instead of fainting (daintily), I fell into fits. Who caught my fall? A bed and a screaming nurse beside me.

It’s true when people say that you can’t say things that are too extreme then...? My life’s a drama? I think I better keep my trap shut.

Another Day of Break

Laughter filled the Air


Ass, you sure looked like you don't like hanging out with us in the pictures. But we'll forgive you for your poor eye.

My BFFs of 12 (going to 13) years. And I know they will be lifelong chums. No matter how different we are, and can be. Do remember that, girls.

Before I get back to work tomorrow...

Last day of my leave today to end the 5-day long break. Back to work tomorrow...

Visited East Coast. Walked a lot and took a lot of pictures. It was a good day – laughter, the sun, the wind in your face, vivid colours, the bright blue sky. If only the day wouldn’t end...

My favourite picture of the day. I have a thing for amusement parks. The vibrant colours, the happy faces, the mish-mash of music.





Looked like I was strangling the pony with my legs.



It's a Sunny Long Weekend

In the midst of a long weekend!

Signed the agreement of lease for the flat that JX and I had successfully balloted for, on Monday! Jalilah was a very sweet motherly lady who was amused that I wanted to take pictures. And everything was over in a jiffy – not even 10am yet, which was the original appointment time.





******************************

M: Now you can’t run away anymore!

JX: You mean you ever thought of running away?

M: No? I meant that this is another step of ‘confirmation’. If you get what I mean...

JX: Oh yeah? I did all the stuffs! The application of the flat... the loan works... You just printed out the stuffs that I told you to!

M: -act dumb-

JX: And you just need to sign here and there. All because I needed another person to purchase a flat....

M: YOU MEAN IF NOT FOR ME, YOU WILL GET ANOTHER GIRL TO BUY A FLAT WITH YOU!?

JX: Haiya! (irritated)

******************************

How I love to irritate him.

Watched Burn After Reading. Uh, I read it somewhere that the story plot is a clever one. But it hardly engaged me at all. It only seemed to highlight to me how idiotic and superficial some people can be? Hardly worth the $7.50 at all! Despite a star cast of George Clooney, Brad Pitt and John Malkovich. The movie was in the comedy category but... call me shallow, but give me a slapstick anytime.

JX’s unkempt brows (did you ever notice them?) were quivering in fright – knowing their fate that day! JX had weird sparse brows towards the end because he was an adventurous, curious, hair-abhoring, cute little boy when he was a kid. A kid, he had shaved his brows to Hitler’s-moustache-size and the brows never did have the courage to grow back again. I laughed so hard when he first told me that. Nevertheless, back to the threading of his brows. We went to Browhaus at Suntec City to have his brows neatened. Being his virgin trial, I thought it to be better to bring him to the brows’ specialists, ya?




Before. After.

JX was very brave, he was in immense pain throughout the threading but he kept quiet. He said he flinched countless times but I didn’t notice. Only when he muttered “Damn pain” as we moved to the cashier to settle the bill, did I know. I muttered back, “Now you know... the pain that girls have to go through in order to look at least presentable.” Armpits. Legs. Brows. And, god-forbid, moustache...?

Next went to Oakley’s headquarters in Redhill. JX needed to buy a specs box for his precious Oakley shades.



Both of us are suckers for shades/specs...


Had dinner at JX’s home and then went to the airport to welcome my parents back from Korea. They looked tired, but you can see that they really enjoyed themselves. And Daddy was exclaiming that Mommy had enjoyed herself so much, that she was already planning for another trip before she even returned.

I gasped, “Not this year, surely, right?”

To that, my mom went silent with a smile and then burst out laughing. Deadpanned, I asked her whether they knew about the crazy market now. They knew.

I dully said, “Mommy must be dirt-rich la.”

Well, it’s good to see some people still upbeat despite the gloom everywhere.
