i'm so pleased! feeling so accomplished cos my printer and speakers havent been working since i got my comp up again..feels so weird typing away on comp without any music..esp when i update..yupp.hee i just fixed everything
ALL BY MYSELF! haha ok fine with a little help from the acer engineer..should have called acer much earlier instead of trying to troubleshoot by myself..got everything solved within 15mins..heh. both my mom and i have been desperately trying to fix them..haha how silly of us! its when im asked to fix the comp that i feel like im a dughter-cum-son cos the techinical stuff like comp usually done by sons wad instead im the one who does it in this household..thank goodness im not a total comp idiot or not gu niang till cannot fix anything..heh.i think my parents are lucky to have me..but of course i think im lucky to have them too..
awww(:anw, went to the career fair at suntec yesterday with dear..well i guess it was an eye opener i mean ive nv been to any career fair before..
boy, im growing up! haha..guess it was a rather useful experience for me but more for dear..he got to speak to the ntu and stb ppl and i think it has helped him clear his doubts a little bit..and after discussing with his parents and i think he feels alot less confused and like he's been thrown off his path of life now..he's gravitated to the path of his he had previously mapped out for himself i guess..as for me i think it was reassuring? cos initially unsure if can get into accountancy and mom kept urging me to consider other options and stuff to fallback on just in case..guess feeling safer now and a little more confident of getting into my desired course now..i think once yu've set ur mind on sth it's really difficult to accept other options and if yu get anything less than that yu'll just feel damn lousy no matter how the second of third option may be just as good..yea..got almost the same grades as tourmaline..i think there's a high chance we'll both get into accountancy together! how exciting!(:
oh yea we kinda got cheated by the teens ppl at the fair..cos i signed up for 6mth subscription 18bucks and get a bag of goodies and a makeover at cover looks studio..cos wad the girl told us was that can have a simple one at the booth itself and another full one at the studio itself..turned out that we could only choose either one and when we went back to clarify with the teens girl she herself didnt know it was liddat and obviously
she communicated the wrong info to us yet
she didnt like ask us if we still wanted the subscription..the lesat she could do was to apologise but she didnt do that either.in my opinion she was acting blur..i was damn angry la..they thot wad we wanted was to split the photos so dear and i could each have a photo taken so in the end the guy just took a photo for dear
without the styling and all
and even told dear they'll contact him to collect the pics
seven days later! wad rubbish. felt damn cheated la..cos i dont usually read teens and i kinda took it up cos wanted to let dear have the simple styling thingy and photo at the booth in the end only the full makeover at the studio which im still not very escited abt but cant waste it..sigh..wad a let down~grrr.alright moving on..headed to bugis for our
shopping spree!(: bought a denim skirt on the way back to mrt at citylink! 22bucks..rather good buy i think and made me feel happier after that teens episode..then while walking in between toilet and stall to try the skirt..MY SHOE BROKE. *faints. second pair that has borken in the month but i must say these shoes were with me for quite long alr..bleah..so i was kinda limping all the way to bugis cos stubborn me didnt wanna anyhow buy a pair of slippers but buy a pair that i like and will wear next time..so limp limp limp all the way thru out the shopping trip at bugis village too lehz..pathetic me. dear kept insisting that he has been to bugis village before even when we entered but i was so darn sure he hadn't la..only halfway thru the shopping trip did he admit that "actually hor..i think i've nv been here.." HA! there's
FINALLY somewhere i've been and dear hadn't..heh.
cos im like forever the
ulu one..so main objective was to find a pair of slippers for me and find a sling bag and clothes for dear..felt great to see dear's eyes glitter in amazement as he saw the shops and the nice shirts and bags in some of the shops..walked for a long time but couldnt find anything the suited dear until when we were abt the leave did dear find a shop selling boardies for 15bucks! wa dear was how happy when he finally bought sth..and we also saw a shop selling the birkenstock lookalikes and they looked rather good but didnt have dear and my size so the salesgirl referred us to another shop where they might sell guy's sizes..so we went to that shop and i did manage to purchase a pair of white ones that suited my feet but they didnt have any for dear..so dear was rather sad haha and kept wanting to step on mine..silly boy..so we proceeded to go dig into
ice monster and on our way there..i spotted the design dear wanted in another shop and we chionged into that shop! dear tried and he bought it! then he instantly so happy la
poopie head. before that black face like anything..haha..
dear bought SHE cd too but dunno why real one 7bucks only..i spotted that one toO!
beams(: yupp so we headed to
ice monster all in for a real treat! ordered the mango one..cost $6.50 cos the auntie give us the big one too big la..we thot wad she meant by regular was the small one..how silly..anw it was damn good! with the sherbet right in the middle! haha but dear didnt wanna eat so much so that he can eat more real food during dinner..lousy..
after that went back bugis junction to have siam kitchen for dinner! whoopies. had the buffet thingy waaa our entire table was filled with food la..tho all small small portions but a bit of everything was really good and filing! haha..
yummy(: and yea its certified by dear that my appetite has indeed grown after working in starhub..think cos we dont eat much thruout the day so we eat alot during mealtimes and its not only me k..dear was surprised my appetite almost matched his despite having eaten more mango at ice monster than him..hee. im gonna become
fatfat..oh bother. walked around and took long bus ride home after that walked round and round bugis junction..and i
really mean round and round the building looking for the bus stop only to realise it's across the road where we first started..so tired we fell asleep on the bus..great to have been able to spend the day with dear..he said its like army next time where we only get to spend weekends together..i think so too..nods. had a great time! (:
oh yes i think i seem to be spending alot of money nowadays..bought bag that day too..bleahh.i better start spending less and save up! for myself and for dear's bday as well!
alright so much for wad ive done..i must say i do regret not working harder in jc..i know yu guys will say ur results not good enuff izzit wad else yu want?! but it really isnt good enuff for me..i feel that i should have done better..made a mistake of not seeking help for physics but instead trying to save my own rotting arse..like alr rotting still dun wanna help wana let it rot further..ok that's gross. but yea sigh i think its a lesson learnt..to speak up and address the problem when there is a problem.i pretty much tried to ignore the prob and kept telling myself i can do it..i can manage by myself.. sure can do well during As as long as i work hard at it..turns out that i did not address the root of the prob and the fact that my foundation wasnt strong..that's why i just didnt get the concepts and everything..i guess too last minute effort that i had put in as well..hmm this applies to other aspects in life as well huh? say in r/s..tho the truth may be cruel its sometimes, ir maybe always, better not to ignore the prob and pretend it doesnt exist struggling to keep it alive by yourself..should always face the prob head on, try to work on it and improve tog as a couple and things may just turn out to be better than expected.. but dont get me wrong..everything's good between dear and me! haha. hmmm..yea so far these are the two aspects in my life which i think it can apply..r/s with everyone in general, but i guess in a few years' time when i secure a job i should rmb wad i typed today too..
alright that's all..peaceout everyone! life's good if yu keep it simple..like my blog! haha..ok lame..
