Count your blessings.

At last, my week is starting to not suck. I've been so caught up being bothered by this and that that it slipped my mind to count my blessings. Yes, I forgot to mention that that's part of my new year resolutions - to count my blessings.

Bumped into Bryan and Kris at the BA Open House last Tuesday. Such smart-looking boys ^^. Bryan joined us for lunch at Sakae Sushi together with Edmund and the girls too. I honestly can't wait for next next Tuesday for some retail therapy with Trish before some Swee Choon with the Phoenixes.

After that I met the 2E homies to have some skewers for dinner at BBQ Box. Not knowing what they ordered, I unintentionally swallowed down a chicken heart (yes, its heart) and some pig intestines. Idk what else inhumane ended up in my stomach but I sure didn't like the idea of the fried quail up there. Sigh, they say I'm a rotten child when it comes to food and I guess you could say so :/

Yesterday was our AAA presentation - also the first presentation in eons - and I'm so relieved we're done and over with it. Phewwww, one more to go and that's it for the semester!

Today, the 'O' level results were released. No comments on how my sister fared but I'm so proud of Gab. Totally forgot that he took his papers this year too until he whatsapped me a ss of his results. This boy has been waiting for me to ask him about it but I didn't, HAHAH. Having a really amusing conversation with him over whatsapp now like we used to. He really has a knack for making me smile/laugh. 

The trick

The trick is not to peel the entire prawn shell off at one go,

but to do it without having to use your fingers

like how it's not to muster up the courage to confess a mistake,

but to do so without hurting a soul

My week has been so emotional that even a bowl of prawn mee can set me into such deep thoughts. What in the world.

Why like this leh

I am such an asswipe

And so is my heart

This is why Karma should slam my face against the wall

Like it just did

Honestly, it's been the longest of time since I've felt so clogged up in my head; also, the first time I've written a post on the other side since a year ago.

Melodramatic fools

Oh, hi. Kunjie invited us over to his place today and Shafiq cooked us some "mommy's special recipe" curry chicken for dinner. The view from Kj's apartment is amazing and his puppy Cookie is as adorable as ever.

Why is it always that Friend A likes Friend B, but Friend B likes Friend C, and Friend A and C always happen to be the best of friends and somehow I'd eventually end up as an intermediary?! And does it make sense that I've been somewhat duped by Friend B to forgive an unatonable sin that Friend C committed, just because she likes him? I was starting to wonder why Friend B had been shielding Friend C so firmly and I see it all makes sense now.

I can't even-

FRIEND B WHAT ARE YOU DOING

STAAAAAHHHHP

Bonjour 2013

The only reason why my babygirls weren't highlighted in the previous post was because if they were, they would be so neon that it'd blind you. Whether it's the last minute of 2012 or the first minute of 2013, they were stuck beside me like glue. This goes out to Fel and Joelle, the besties of mai laife ♡ ♡

Sadly we didn't take any photos :( But this is all I've got:

Joelle and I met for dinner at Maxwell Food Centre before meeting Fel and the 2E boys + Weeheng. Couldn't decide on a place to camp at so we ended up roaming around in the drizzle and struggling to avoid the mud puddles. Ended up at the same ol' Flyer spot, where we were last year.

The event there was sooooo bad. I wouldn't even consider it as a countdown event because.... there was no countdown. Now tell me which DJ asks the crowd if they're ready for a countdown when it's already been ten seconds past midnight? I'll tell you which: The one at the Flyer. Whoever you are, thanks for spoiling my perfect picture of actually yelling the numbers while awaiting for the fireworks to light up. Urrrrgh, can't even handle this absurdity. And I'm not even done with ranting about the crowd yet. 99.9999% were Yen-users (inside joke) and the rest had ridiculously stiff bodies.

Refused to kick-start 2013 with such a horrible countdown party so I psycho-ed Joelle to stayover at Raynor's place with me and the rest. Played Monopoly (and owned the game) and watched the boys play Fifa through the night while Joelle died off halfway. We only mustered enough strength to pull our lazy asses out of the house at 0830 for breakfast nearby.

Something I really look forward to for the next few weeks/months would be more dinner dates with this bunch, especially when Joelle starts work at Dover and the poly kids from SP start school.

What a jolly night!
