Growing old and staying cute, together :)

URGH MAN

I feel like I've some leftover teenage angst in me or something.

WHY CAN'T I JUST BE ALLOWED TO SLACK during the holidays. I already give myself enough crap for being me.

风水轮流转

Packing is therapeutic.

I'm so impressed with Ikea and Youtube. Simple solutions to big problems. Previously there was a lot of clutter on my desk and the clutter manifested itself in an increasingly uncontrollable manner. This problem has persisted for more than two years. Well, NO MORE TODAY.

I watched a (random) video on Youtube and there was this high school girl in the US who did a video of how she organized her desk and BY JOVE it was the neatest desk I'd ever seen. Zero clutter... which made me wonder, is it just me who holds on to random knick knacks with sentimentality? Don't other people keep small random things simply because they're nice & can't bear to throw them away or that the stuff reminds them of their youth? I must really be a hoarder...

So the random high schooler with the neatest and smallest desk ever had these boxes stacked up on her desk that held her stuff. And the boxes were like in three different sizes, small, medium and big, all stacked one on top of the other. Which, I go nuts for. Despite being the outwardly and inwardly messy freak that I am, I have a bit of an obsessive compulsive disorder thing, which really is suppressed too often by my messy side.

Then I went to Ikea yesterday to get chicken wings (YUM) and decided to get BOXES too. And can I mention that I really like the colors that the boxes come in? There was khaki green (boomz?), orange, black and white... all the colors that complement each other on the color wheel. Right, there goes my OCD again...

So here's my revamped desk area, forgot to take "Before" photos... it's not all that neat or anything, but I just had to blog about this because I'm still on a roll with the packing/decluttering and I want to remind myself that YES! I can be neat!



Boxes on the table top to keep a lot of bull crap inside. Spot the bottle with the yellow cap - it's the stupid sour drink from SMU's vending machines hahaha I thought it was such an interesting glass bottle that I decided to bring it home (Hoarder Alert)



Boxes below my desk. These store my magazines and face masks and stationery (yes vain, and yes, random packing system). The transparent bin houses my in-use bags so that they don't lie around on the floor and thus become easy targets for lizards/cockroaches to crawl into. Haha gross shit, but hey shit happens man!

AND I will get started on my cupboard soon. It's a war zone in there.

Today I was cheated of $50 because I dragged my sister (thus I offered to partially subsidise her entrance ticket which she impolitely did not refuse haha) to the Hello Kitty (yes, I hear your laughter) exhibition at the Expo... And it was such a bloody waste of money! Ok everything was quite cute, but it was like over in a flash and on that note, NO PHOTOGRAPHY was allowed. ****. You expect me to pay $38 to go and see stuff that I can't even take pictures of?! Bloodsuckers.

Anyway exams are over! No more house arrest, yay! Went out to celebrate last night with the Corporate Finance groupmates at Cafe Iguana, it was a good time. I just bought stuff from Ikea to organize my junkyard so I'm gonna get started on that soon.

930
I wake up. Probably meant to do so like an hour earlier, but usually I am in the midst of some ridiculously long dream involving people I like/dislike so I'm kept in beneath the blankets a lil longer than I like.

10
Breakfast. Involves a copious amount of channel surfing... And flipping to the last page of the Life! paper. I feel a sense of affinity with the celebrities.

1130
Getting bored from reading notes. Peer at phone and play a few rounds of "Spikey". Attempt in vain to break high scores and subsequently drive myself more blind. Contemplate hiding my phone somewhere.

1330
Lunch. More channel surfing. Delighted to see something good on Oprah.

1530
The afternoon sleepies set in. I crash on the sofa.

1730
Starting to stew (eeew) so another shower beckons. I'm tempted to chat on MSN but there's no one there.

1900
Dinner!

2100
More notes... I think of "Shutter" where the male lead's neck hurts real bad cos a vengeful lady ghost's been sitting on his shoulders all the time. My neck hurts the same way too. I wonder if I'm being spooked.

2300
I waste my youth online.

1200
I decide that it's time to sleep.

0130
I finally get to sleep.

Testing?

Think I'll be horribly uninspired this study week cos I'll be studying for 2 finance papers.

Today I went to the dentist for a cursory teethcleaning and he asked what I was studying at school. And when he heard it was finance (I missed out marketing) he said "Oh, so ur gonna head up another Lehman Brothers in the future".

Well I'd say he wasn't too shabby himself, working Sundays at NTUC Denticare Bedok Interchange...

cute girls always think they're fat

It sneaks up on you like a little shadow, like the fuzz that appears on your chin the next morning despite having shaven just a day before and lasting the whole day being smooth and hair-free. It's just impossible to keep doubt of my mind.

Haha how different are women's feet from men? I'm quite positive that the lady standing in front of me in the train is a man... Save for her womanly hands and feet (v big tho) she's classy and quite beautiful anyhow! Haha

When I see you sky as a kite As high as I might I can't get that high The how you move The way you burst the clouds It makes me want to try When I see you sticky as lips As licky as trips I can't lick that far But when you pout The way you shout out loud It makes me want to start And when I see you happy as a girl That swims in a world of magic show It makes me bite my fingers through To think I could've let you go And when I see you Take the same sweet steps You used to take I say I'll keep on holding you My arms so tight I'll never let you slip away And when I see you kitten as a cat Yeah as smitten as that I can't get that small Tthe way you fur The how you purr It makes me want to paw you all And when I see you happy as a girl That lives in a world of make-believe It makes me pull my hair all out To think I could've let you leave And when I see you Take the same sweet steps You used to take I know I'll keep on holding you In arms so tight They'll never let you go

I might just be in transit... or is this just a transitory feeling?

Thought I'd be e$ rich by the time I get to bid for my last and final semester in SMU (wow it's surreal!)... truth is I probably am! But $166 in my overall starting balance?! I was expecting e$500! Ask for more man (pepsi haa)

UPGRADE FROM BOYFRIEND TO HUSBAND

Dear IT Support, Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a slow down in the overall performance, particularly in the flower, gifts and jewellery applications that had operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0.

In addition, Husband 1.0 un-installed many other valuable programs, such as Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5, but installed undesirable programs such as Formula One 5.0, NBA 3.0 and World Cup 2.0.

And now Conversation 8.0 no longer runs and House Cleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system. I've tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no avail. What can I do?

Signed,
Desperate Housewife

Dear Desperate Housewife,

First keep in mind: Boyfriend 5.0 is an entertainment package, while Husband 1.0 is an operating system.

Try entering the command C:\ I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME and download Tears 6.2 to install Guilt 3.0. If all works as designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewellery 2.0 and Flowers 3.5.

But remember, overuse can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0 or Late Night Teh Tarik 6.1. Late Night 6.1 is a very bad program that will create SnoringLoudly.wav files.

Whatever you do, DO NOT install Mother-in-Law 1.0 or reinstall another Boyfriend program. These are not supported applications and will crash Husband 1.0.

In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have a limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider additional software to improve memory and performance.

I personally recommend Hot Tasty Food 3.0 and Tongkat Ali 6.9.

Good Luck,
IT Support

Lunch one day with a semi long lost pal where the words didn't seem to end.

Wow

All I can say is

That some people can really fcuk up real bad, or fcuk others up real bad.

Sad but true story.

I'm not usually a cat person at all but this cat went and spoilt it all for me:



Image from For Me, For You

That face! Those paws! Chillin' on the sofa with a stuffed toy rat. How not to love!

Going for my once-in-a-year-happy-birthday-here's-your-double-boiled-shark's-cartilage-soup dinner now.

Omygosh I think I'm really insane. I can really push myself to the edge sometimes.

WAKE UP YOUR IDEA ksk @$(@%_@$@#. I seriously need (psychiatric)help. And sleep.

This is really unhealthy.
