Yes, No?

Posted on: April 6, 2007

I’m quite puzzled. How is it that only a handful of others know me except my mum? Sometimes i feel that the term ‘friends’ can be very superficial. From dictionary.com, i found this as the definition of friends.

  1. A person whom one knows, likes, and trusts.
  2. A person whom one knows; an acquaintance.
  3. A person with whom one is allied in a struggle or cause; a comrade.
  4. One who supports, sympathizes with, or patronizes a group, cause, or movement: friends of the clean air movement.
  5. Friend A member of the Society of Friends; a Quaker. 

Very clearly, friends are just friends, shows nothing at all about undertanding and knowing one another. I can say, other than my mum, Jun is the only other being which knows me best. She knows what i want, and i mean it. The 2 of us are quite alike in some ways, Sam, is a totally different character cus we don’t have as much drama cells as her. AHHAAHAH. I know why jun does some things, she also knows what i want. AND WE’RE BOTH PERFECTIONISTS WHO DON’T ACHIEVE PERFECTION.

I am very hot-tempered. But i hardly ever get really angry. My outbursts are about ZERO compared to jun and sam. I scream, but that doesn’t mean that i’m angry. When i’m really angry, i cry instead. NOW, how many people actually know that. When i don’t feel like talking, i just either don’t pick up calls, don’t reply or hang up. And when that happens, i usually have a very irritated tone. When i’m exasperated, i keep quiet, not because i have nothing to say, its just that i feel that talking reason to people like that is quite redundant. I don’t roll my eyes at someone when they do something stupid cus i think that’s rude, i roll them when i really want to get sarcastic and the other party knows i’m just being sarcastic, i know people who does that, and i think that’s rude. because you don’t respect that person, but i don’t tell them cus i know they won’t care. They just think they’re real great. Instincts tells me these are the people who think they’re big just think they are, but in actual fact, they aren’t. Some times i get so irritated by the people around me, i rather stay home and grow fat, rather than face them. I may be poor, but i have good upbringing, same like jun, please don’t think we’re those action action who gives faces for nothing. WE DON’T.

For instance, i don’t care who you’re, i know you don’t mind paying like an extra 15bucks for something, but i mind, and when i cancel something, its because i’m not the only one opposing, its not up to you to give me your long face. i’m keeping mum cus i want no more things. But, you better have the sense to keep quiet and don’t go over the line. AND WANT TO SAY SAY. DON’T KEEP QUIET LIKE SOME CRAP. pui.

I’ll make sure you look like that emoticon of mine if you dare cross over my line.

4e5’s dearest Mr ANGel is leaving this friday. i’m not exaggerating or what, if not for ANGel, instead of the 100% passes for Maths that the school had, it would have been a 80%? cus our class would have surely pulled the average down. =( But thank god for Mr ANGel, even SM that bum got a 3! An ANGel indeed. I’ll daresay my Sec 3 teacher wasn’t a good one at all. Ok, i shouldn’t put all the blame on her, but, surely someone could explain WHY. WHY only 4 people passed Maths when there are 37 in the class, WHY would more than half the class, me included, go to school with homework undone? WHY would half the class sleep, and WHY would a quarter doing their own stuffs, plus the a fifth that can’t be bothered. ONLY LIKE 3 PEOPLE ARE LISTENING. come on, surely like that, it can’t be me alone right?

And i’m just stating facts. She was a nice teacher, nice and all. but the only thing was that she couldn’t teach. Which is the stupidest thing that can ever happen when someone is a teacher. So quite obviously, Sec 3 EOY was one huge disaster. And thank god, i think even the principal couldn’t take it and changed our teacher to Mr ANGel in sec 4! THANK YOU!

i tell you, Mr ANGel is one very patient teacher, you don’t want to ask him can, but when you have problems, he never rejects! And his effoorts paid off! I tell you, his lessons are the first(other than Mr Thiru’s) maths lesson which i don’t sleep in! ITS AMAZING. towards the end of the year i actually did the practice papers he gave us. you know you know? That’s about the first maths homework i actually bothered doing in the 2 years of upper secondary life. If not for Mr ANGel, my maths would have been terrible. i’m not kidding. I’m all confident about sec 4 chapters, but ask me anything about sec 3’s work, i’ll just tell you i only know the basics, and that’s how bad it was. =\

aiyahyahyah. i’m going back to school tomorrow. =) i think its gonna be fun.

And to tricia, thanks for that comment arh. AHAHAAHAHAH.

today is one sinful day.

Firstly, i started the day off with some japanese buffet lunch with weimin and gang. man, all the food that went down, i bet that meant another gain of at least 1kg in me. =\ Then after, it was shopping. It was fine, i didn’t buy a lot of things. PHEW. first stop was Raffles City since the restaurant was near it, but then, they didn’t have a lot of things there, except for some really nice doughnuts and the birks’ store in basement level. OHOH. there was skin food there, i wanted to get the black nail lacquer with a pearly sheen, and guess how much it was? $4.50. PUI. i got that in Taiwan for about $2.50 only, and they didn’t have my super gorgeous blue colour. WHOO. i feel so exclusive. LALALALA.

Anyway, after Raffles was Vivo, and damn, i cleanly forgot the fact that today was saturday, and saturday meant that the crowd at vivo was huge. And i don’t know why, everywhere is still holding sales, ALL PLACES CAN. well, almost all. Shop by shop we went, the shop with the prettiest products goes to, RIVER ISLAND. Darn, the things inside were really really pretty, SO NICE YOU WISHED YOU COULD HAVE ONE OF EVERYTHING. But then, pretty as it may be, the prices were not really affordable. A simple shift dress costs around $105 onwards. Prices there are more to exquisite boutiques like Ted Baker, Gap, Bebe than to normal high-street stores like Forever 21, Mango, Topshop etc. But they had these really nice glasses from $45 each, they had different coloured frames and rhinestones on it. So designer feel. And they had really nice shorts too, OH SO PRETTY, they start from $89. And, there was this GREEN bag, big and nice, with loads of compartments. Dang, it was $139. i mean, yes, its really nice and all, but $139 for a bag is still…. not what i can afford. =(

Next store, Club Marc New York was having this storewide 50% sale. SIAO. Because i have such weak determination, i succumbed to the temptation and bought a shirt. RELAX. no big damages though, the shirt was only $15 after discount. dirt cheap.  And as usual lar, went around, shopped around, looked around and nothing more.

OHOH. i saw Derrick from PSS season 1 at vivo, i was at starbucks the first time i saw him, the second time, he was right in front of me when i was trying on the shades in River Island. WOOOHOOOO. he’s damn cute. i mean it! Real nice and real cute! Pity he isn’t that tall. but still, CUTE GUY ALERT MAN. but then again, i’ll choose the as-sexy-as-the-word-sexy-itself Daniel Wu over cute-as-a-button Derrick any other day. Ahhhhh, Daniel Wu is like the human equivalent of the word SEXY.

After vivo, i headed to ECP for the family gathering. was not as fun as i had thought. but then again, not that i could really do something about it. At 10pm like that, it was finally time to go home. Because of the big family that i have, we had to split into 2 cabs. And i had a hard time getting mine. PUI. And you know me, when i flagged continuously for like 20mins and no cabs are available, i start to get impatient, and when i get impatient, i start to grumble, and when i grumble, i’m not in a good mood, AND TO HELL WITH THAT FEW MOFOS WHO CUT MY QUEUE AND TOOK MY CAB just by standing a little further in front of me. PUI. i can’t stand it when others cut my queue, that was the ultimate i tell you, vulgarities came out, and they had the cheek to look at me when they got onto their cab. I mean, hello, i’m not that unreasonable ok, if you had asked nicely and had some important appointment of something, i’d have gladly gave it to you first, queue cutting is just so undesirable. PUI.

On a totally random note, look at this picture,

I love this picture can. Jun took this when we were at the park a few days ago, AHAHAAHHA, my name can. and no one else can use it unless you’re called Tricia too, or you’re the person who wrote this. AHHAHAHAHA. “I LOVE 3 ❤ 0% Tricia,” it doesn’t really make sense, but it made a nice picture. AHAHAHAHAHAH. EVERYONE LOVES A TRICIA. =) eeeeheeeheeeeeee, YAY !  Tricias rock! WHOOHOOOOO. =D

Chatting seriously with sam and jun is always rewarding. i mean it. Sometimes, when we get so serious and proper and so engaged in the conversation, we’re like some mature people giving a lecture. my analogy sounds wrong, but oh well, never mind. Insensible, that word cuts like a knife. PUI (sorry for the excessive use of ‘PUI’, i just can’t help it!). anyway, what insensible things have you done? i did a lot i think, a lot. especially in sec 1 and 2? Damn, i was still young then, ok, not that 17 is all that great, but i feel that i’ve changed my perspectives on certain issues over the years. Its nice to grow up sometimes, to know that you really are not that stupid after all. i like it in some weird ways.

SIANszxszx. jun is not online, neither is sam. PUI. i wonder where are the 2 of them, leave me to die of boredom alone. JUN JUN. how’s spelling? i hope you’re doing fine. SAM SAM, adult fare is ok lar, when we start school, we can buy concession instead, it’ll not be so expensive. RELAX.

YAY! i got my cheque for working about 10days at the sandpile, 500SGD. WALAU, 10 days and its already 500, i can’t imagine if i worked for the rest of the month. i’d have had like a 1000SGD or something… OH, something that pisses me off, the stones at the sandpile are released. PUI. PUI. what was with the bringing back the shifts when the time comes? pack of lies. LOL. Am i using a tone a tad too agressive here? Fine if you think so. Sighhhhhhhhhh, i miss my pathetic makeshift container office, miss the strong aircon, miss the nice uncles, miss the starry sky, miss the weigh bridge, miss the skinny dogs, miss the colourful pickups, miss the printer, miss the stamp, miss nice colleagues like tricia, ok, i didn’t have a lot of colleagues there, minus away jun, sm, wen, wei qi and weiling, i only have a handful of colleagues, brandon and gang and tricia, and in my shift, minus away jun, tricia is the only other colleague. =\ But never mind, i think both jun and i really enjoyed slogging with tricia in our office, what with entertaining uncles, getting free Mac treats, huge ant-bees, lizards, solitaire, spider solitaire, movies, stuck printers, ugly frogs, 3D pinball, bitching, sleeping, eating. The list goes on man. AHHHHHHHHHH. I MISS THAT JOB CAN. PUI SURBANAS. cheat our feelings. Double PUI.

i’m gonna post more pictures of that pretty place.

Quote from tricia, “the 3 musketeers who braved the front line where people left us to die.”

 PUI. my room is in this huge mess now. shit. i’m so ashamed of it, the room looks like the aftermath of a tsunami or 6.6 earthquake. The whole floor is strewn with a lot of stuffs, books, bags, clothes, my shoppings from Taiwan, the hand carry luggage, belts. WHATEVER. you name it, we have it. i feel so disorganised. shittttttttttttttttttttt. resolution for the month, to clean the room before school reopens.

And yay! i’m gonna have my haircut soon! =D

PUI.

Its not difficult to see why people believe that god is unfair. I mean, i believe that everyone has their fair share of mumbles and grumbles. Take me for example, i always ask why am i not as rich? As superficial as it may sound, its quite the problem many are facing. PUI. I don’t know why, when i go out with 38, i always spend, its just a lot or little. When i go out with Jun or sam, i can don’t spend money at all you know. WHY. i’m always asking why nowadays. Why this? Why that? why Why WHY? Its not fair you know, the way some people put peer pressure on other people without even themselves knowing. Its quite hurting. i think.

Like what sam and jun and i once talked about, the rich can never understand the poor. Its like, no matter what you say, they’ll still be very adamnant about their decision or ideas, which sometimes makes people feel, they don’t really care and bother how the less well-to-do people feel.

And well, based on statistics(yes, i’m quite sure i read this somewhere before.), the gap between the rich and the poor is further than ever, the middle class is disappearing, some to the upper level, while others go down, what does this mean?

I’m trying to live on my own now, trying not to burden my mum so much, but, of course, desperate situations calls for mum. So, people, when i say i want to save, i really mean it and and trying very hard to save. And when i go out, i do budget shopping now. A rough quote from sam goes something like this, “Teenagers should experience budget shopping when they can.” So…………… right.

Anyway, this ends my post today. And jun, i hope you’re having fun with Microsoft Sam. =)
