been going to brunei three weeks in a row

I'm cleaning up my room now - yay!

Queen of procrastinating!! SIGH!

I got the hiccups four bloody times today! Maybe something's wrong with me. It was all really funny though. I got it first in church. So totally embarrassing!! My hiccups are always embarrassingly loud, for one. When I started having them, people kept turning around to see what was making that awful noise! Hahahaha. ME!! Then I was still having it when I went up to receive holy communion. Hahahahahaha!! Bodoh!! Then in the middle of saying prayers.. very loudly, I will go HIC!! making my cousins all laugh. Then in the middle of giggling I will HICCUP!! and there we go all over again. Vicious cycle!

My cousin said, "Cis. People so concentrated on praying already and then suddenly cannot think! It's like.. ring ring... ring ring... ring ring... I'm sorry. Your call has been disconnected. Please try again later. No time even for the other person to pick up!"

Second time during breakfast. Eeeps. Thank goodness Yakin is a very noisy place! Third time when I was in the car on the way to Supa Save (Yes, I went to Brunei, again.) and the boys laughed at me. Evil beings they certainly are! And the fourth was just not too long ago. My dad says if I get the hiccups a lot, it might mean that there's something wrong with my diaphragm. He says I should go see a doctor. Grr.

Anyways, the reason why I went up to Brunei today was because Iqbal invited me for lunch at Escapade, tempting me with tales about the 100 dollar sushi boat filled with every single sushi that they served at that restaurant.

Went up with.. Iqbal, Mark, Alywin, Roger, John, and Kelvin. Didn't hear a peep out of Kelvin at all. First time meeting him and all. Maybe he didn't know anyone else there at all? First, pictures of people that were there! Except for one guy - Roger. Didn't have any good pictures of him.

do the locomotion
Iqbal (the one who invited me) dunno talking about what. So I made it up.

behold mighty sony
I think they might've been trying to take some picture. Guy in green is Kelvin and guy in grey is John. Hehehehe. No need to see their faces la.. cos I dunno them very well so don't want to post their pics up.

weird faces
Left is Alywin. Right is again, Iqbal. So funny I accidentally caught them making the same kind of face when I snapped them.

lovey dovey couple
The lovey dovey couple, Mark and Kim. Yuck.

50 dollars
We ordered the party set. Sushi and sashimi - 50 dollars.

10 cents
The aftermath! You can always count on boys to finish. Hehe.

mark is too happy
Mark acting all happy now that his belly is full.

kim at escapade
After I was done eating. But I admit I didn't eat much. Cos I had quite a number of dim sum from breakfast. Not done digesting! But I did enjoy the food.

camwhore spotted in the vicinity
I wonder who this was.

After Escapade, we dropped by Seria Plaza to tapau some Jollibee for some friends back home. Then went window shopping for a videocam, shoes, and sunglasses. Then went to have some ice-cream at Dairy Queen. I can't believe those boys managed to finish a Regular sized blizzard!

Then we went to Super Save - I bought lamb cutlets, steak, and mushrooms. Haha. Doing my mother's bidding. Then Mark and I had kebabs. Non-stop eating, ok! I can't resist good food!!

drive back
On the drive back. From my point of view.

pretend
Teruk. I was playing around trying to take a picture of me with him sleeping - turns out he was pretending!

sunny
The hot afternoon sun - 5.13pm



And lastly! An excerpt from a chat I was having with my cousin. After showing him pictures of food from lunch!! Muahahaha..

chat excerpt

PS. I ended up blogging instead of cleaning my room. Sigh.

witnessed my first dramatic car crash - yay

You may or may not have noticed, I have added Twitter to my blog! I'm making life easier for stalkers. Hahahaha. But I got so frustrated just now trying to set the damned thing up. Very frustrating. It got me worried wondering why my messages were not showing up. Turns out, that you have to be signed out of Twitter to see your messages on other sites. Huh??? I know. Weird.

But I give up. I'll try fixing it again another day. I'll just leave it the way it is currently. Haha.

**********

Last night, I went out with Mark and Laurence for a drink. Was kind of lazy actually, and Laurence was kind of lazy too, but Mark wanted to meet up to discuss what we should do over raya.

Boy, were we treated to a show or what!

Hahaha. We decided to go to Miri Cafe for our drinks. We were almost done with our first drink when we heard some screeching noise coming from the roads. I was facing into the restaurant, so I turned my head around to take a look.

I only expected to see some bastard driver being stupid again by speeding so much that he had to brake hard for the red lights. But hurrah, showtime!

Saw this white Kancil starting to spin out of control, that's when I turned my body so that I won't have to strain my neck looking behind me. At first it was alright, I really thought the driver could probably recover and stop his car, but that did not happen.

The Kancil spun three times, and then it's front right wheel caught the divider between the roads, flipped twice (that's when I went, "OMG." and covered my mouth. Yes, I'm such a cliché), landed the right way up, kept on rolling, hit an oncoming Wira (not head on though. The front right corner of the Kancil hit the front right corner of the Wira), spun out of control (again!!), and finally stopped when it's back left wheel got wedged onto a divider which was the only thing that stopped it from falling into the drain.

What was amazing was that the police showed up a minute after the accident happened! Hahahaha!

Oh, and of course as with any other time a car accident happens in Malaysia, whether big or small, time is manipulated, time slows down! Cars on the roads which were before traveling at 80km/h suddenly slows to 40km/h. You know Malaysians.

These two guys (one Chinese and one angmo - how relevant is this?) that were sitting and drinking at a nearby table finished their drinks and walked over to the newly made crash site. Several waiters and waitresses also left to check the accident out. Found out later from the waitresses (by listening to their conversations) that there were three people in the Kancil but no one died. And that they're all fine despite the drama!

Mark left Laurence and I to check the scene out too after awhile. He returned not long after that saying that the cars were fine too. The cars were not crushed in so badly and were surprisingly still okay looking despite what they've been through. And that's strange if you consider how fragile, thin, and light the Kancil is.

Btw, I think the accident was caused by the Kancil driver him/herself when s/he was speeding, swerving in and out of traffic trying to overtake everyone on the road. So... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!

Hehehe.

This morning, as I was driving to campus. I saw a Kancil halfway into a drain with these two ladies sitting on the ground beside it. I'm guessing waiting for a tow truck to come by and help them out. Hahaha.

I don't know how they ended up driving their car into the drain so I won't laugh at them.

Why all these funny Kancils and their funny reckless drivers.

PS. I really pity the innocent Wira driver though.

riding a human gyroscope

UPDATED!

Last Saturday, I went up to Brunei to visit Mark since he wasn't going to come back down that weekend. He wasn't able to come down because he was busy moving. So I helped him out with moving a bit. Only a bit because most of the stuff were done already. Oh, and that day was a really hot day too! So we were lucky to be able to get away from all the moving chaos early.

Mark had promised me before that if I ever came down to Brunei, he would bring me to OGDC which is the Oil and Gas Discovery Center in Brunei. All because after coming out of the Singapore's Science Center, he claimed that the OGDC in Brunei was way better than the Science Center in Singapore. Which I had no problem believing because [explanation here].

Anyway! While I was there, I got to feed the fishes which was hilarious cos they were all fighting over the food we threw into the water. I have a feeling that they have been starving for days because it's the puasa season so not a lot of people have been visiting the OGDC - so the fishes have also been fasting. Hahaha!

mirrors
What girl can resist mirrors?

I also got to ride the human gyroscope which they have at the OGDC. Sweet. I wish the ride had been more intense though. I have a feeling that the guys who were operating the gyroscope went easy on me. Cos I saw several videos on YouTube where the riders seemed to get a more intense ride. So unfair!!!! Well, check this out and forgive the Medusa hairstyle the gyroscope gave me:



That was fun, nonetheless. Although I probably shouldn't have gone on the ride. Hahaha!! Cos I read the warnings which usually has the normal warnings such as the ride is a no go for pregnant ladies, those with heart problems, etc etc, and one of them was also for those who have ear problems - which of course, struck at chord with me. The sign also said, "if in doubt, don't do it."

But I'm so silly and kiasu that I wanted to go on the ride anyway. Hahaha! And nothing totally bad happened so oh yeah! *pumps fist in air* They also had an earthquake stimulator which is this tiny house with four buttons inside. Small, medium, large, and stop. You get to go inside the house, select which size earthquake you would like, and the house will start shaking. It was interesting. But not so fun after the gyroscope.

I forgot I had taken a video of the earthquake stimulator. Hehehe. It's going to be an unedited 20 second video though. I'm sure you're curious enough to forgive me for that.



There was also a tornado stimulator, which was this glass enclosure which you were allowed to enter and at a flip of the switch, a tornado would form around you and you are also invited to stand in the middle of the tornado if you like. It was too bad that it didn't work. Greg and I were standing for minutes in that glass casing looking like right fools waiting for something to happen. Hehehe.

we could be on candid camera
Check your Brunei TV channels to be sure.

They were supposed to have closed by 3pm but they let us play around for an extra 15 minutes because we came so late. Hahaha! We didn't know that they would close early because it's the puasa season. Otherwise, they would close only at 5pm. So outside, we fed the fishes again and then we spotted something in their park:

why is my king black
Wondering why my Queen was black.

No, I didn't play. It was way too hot out to stay very long. You know what's so hilarious? They actually cut off the crosses that you will find on top of the Kings! Sheesh.

You know, I rarely update on the weekends. So you guys are so lucky, eh?? So what if it's because Mark didn't come back this weekend either. Blah blah bloody blah.

the little bird incident

Omigosh! I just saw the most curious sight! The most awesome winds are blowing outside. It's so strong that when I looked out my window, I saw a bird hovering just outside my window! It's so funny!! You know that birds aren't able to hover, right? Well, this bird was trying to fly against the wind but it was so strong that it looked like it was hovering instead.

But the poor thing! The wind only got stronger and it was blown backwards. Hahahahaha!!

PS. Winds like these actually scare me a little cos they seem so violent. But the little bird incident was too cute!

so called jet setter

Mark asked me like, 2 days ago whether I want to go to Penang over the Raya holidays. MMMM! I've never been to Penang before. I thought cool, I would love to go explore and see what's so great about the food there. LOL! No one ever talks about anything else but the food when Penang is mentioned.

However, now they're changing their plans and going over to KK instead cos all the hotels in Penang and Langkawi are booked full. Aww. But regardless, I would love to go as well! Maybe this time, explore the islands properly and go parasailing!! Was supposed to go last time I was there but some *ahem* people *ahem*. You get my drift. Plus, tickets over aren't so expensive. RM180 with return. Via MAS. Hehehehe. I checked AirAsia and it's more expensive to fly via AirAsia at this point, okay.

Fingers crossed that my parents would let me go. Then can stay at hotel too! They're planning to stay at Sutera Habour! It's been ages since I've stayed at a hotel. I don't want to count in the hotel that I stayed at in Singapore cos it kinda sucked. I would've called it an inn, not a hotel.

Hum dee dum. Oh, and I would like to play tour guide and bring them around KK. Hahaha! It feels like I can do that now after my last trip to KK. *blush* Now I'm just reminded how I only blogged about one day in KK. Aww. Shucks. Maybe I'll attempt a little compressed post about my trip. Later. Hmm.. reminds me about the Singapore trip too. And I haven't even gotten to the best parts of either one of those trips too.



xxxxxx



I'm also praying to God that my ears will be able to survive the flights.. Sigh. I don't want to go deaf. Hmm.. yeah, I didn't mention that while I was in Singapore I caught a pretty bad case of the flu. My ears got blocked from me blowing my nose. That's never happened when I've caught the flu before. Anyway, the morning I was supposed to fly back to Miri, my aunt was saying something to me which I couldn't catch. So I said, "What? Can you say that again? I can't hear properly cos my ears are blocked."

To which she replied, "Oh. Then your ears are going to hurt a lot of the plane later. You better be careful and take care not to turn deaf!" That was scary to hear okay. I was worried but once I got to the airport, I forgot about it cos all I thought about was me getting home again. Yes, it hurt badly, especially on the descent. And we had to descend twice because we transited in Kuching. Singapore - Kuching - Miri. Kuching - Miri was the worst though. I felt like blowing my brains out with a shotgun by that time.

I can practically feel the veins in my head expanding and threatening to explode. Imagine that! I swore I believed very much at that moment that I was going to die. It hurt THAT much. I was close to tears on the plane and I couldn't even keep still from all the pain. I was rocking myself back and forth trying to relieve the pain but it didn't go away. I looked like a right nut then. But I survived otherwise I can't be here today. I think that's the way to survive life threatening situations. Embarrass yourself.

Anyways, was in a bad mood after that. And had an awful headache that lasted days. Searing pain that attacked the left back side of my head. Then I also started having toothaches. Went to see a doctor. He said I was lucky. I will explain it to you the same way he explained it to me.


This is what a normal ear looks like.

ear_drum
This is what's wrong with my ears.

It's kinda gross to think of it that way, isn't it? But yes, apparently that tube is all stuffed up with mucus that it's practically pressing up against my ear drums causing it to curve outwards instead of it naturally curving inwards. According to my doctor, I'm very lucky that my ear drums did not burst during the flight from all the pressure. When he mentioned that I could've lost my hearing and especially when he said the word, deaf, it took a lot in me not to cry although the tears very much threatened to roll out of my eyes and onto my cheeks.

The idea that I could've been deaf. Maybe not completely, but enough to take away my joy in music. Audiophile.. Heh.

Went to see a dentist (just in case. I already suspected it had something to do with my flu) about my toothache. He asked if I had the flu recently to which I answered yes. He explained that it's cos of sinus and that it could induce pain in your jaws making it seem like a toothache. No, I didn't have to pay to see my dentist. Free consultation what. I think Malaysia's trying to encourage it's citizens to go see a dentist. See this poster that I saw outside where I was stuck waiting for my dentist and his assistants to come back from lunch hour. Hehe.

Dental poster. Click to enlarge.

I sound fine about it now cos that was a few weeks ago and I had time to calm down. But I was advised by my doctor to make an appointment with an ENT doctor. Which I have this coming Sunday. I seriously doubt that he would say that it's okay for me to fly anytime soon. Cos my other doctor said that for me to recover and get better would take a few months. Up to 6 months even. And I don't want to risk losing my hearing, do I? Sigh.

cuss like a sailor

Sux. I made videos and YouTube is taking it's time processing them. Memang like this wan ka?? How come it takes agessssss for YouTube to process my videos. Usually days!! Is it like this? I don't remember it taking this long before. :-/

But the last two, no three videos I posted took days before it showed up. Very sad. Means I have to blog late. Grr. Not like anyone reads my blog but you know, blah blah blah. I just want to show no one something. Hahaha.

Erm. Today it rained. Hehe.

Eh, just now I almost got hit by some fucker's car. GERAM!! I show you how!

idiot

Gila babi betul. And he was like, 1 or 2 inches away from my car! And he had the atrocity to beep me! When he was clearly in the wrong! Excuse me, okay. I'm minding my own business and going into the correct lane. This fucker here was trying to come into MY lane. You think got two lanes there for what?! Only later then okaylah, you cut in and merge into one lane! Fucker. You don't bloody try to enter in the wrong lane. There are two lanes there for a reason! For those who turn right from the middle lane lah, duh. Like that bitch idiot man.

I wish these kinda people death, okay. But I didn't wish it on him. Usually I would but since he had his own kids with him in the car, I didn't want him to die yet. Just in case his car crashes with his kids still in there and I don't wish upon them any harm. Especially cos I assume that they're still innocent. Ha ha. Stupid stupid. This middle aged guy? I would've been more lenient if it had been a senile old man. But sheesh. Still young (middle aged) and already driving like some senile.

Sorry! Just me bitching again. Enough lah. These kind of people should drive off a cliff. Muahaha.

as she bangs her head on the wall

Right now, at this very minute, at this very moment in time, my right upper and lower jaw is giving me hell. How's that for real time blogging for you?? Thank you, mother of all flus. This hurts so bad. Bad bad bad bad bad. I might resort to looking for a twig in my garden later just to have something to chew on. I'm apparently too cheap to buy chewing gum. Urgh!!!

i found magic shoes

Sunday, 2nd September 2007

T'was Sunday so we all went to St. Bernadette's for Sunday mass. The Father has a funny way of speaking. Almost like Father Vincent, except with a Singaporean accent. And he still speaks faster than Father Vincent. Hehehe. Usually after mass, we would all walk across the street to Great World City mall for lunch and that's what we did.

We had our lunch at Crystal Jade Restaurant. It was damn full and we had to wait awhile before we could be seated. And then, we ordered so much food! Dim sum, peking duck, noodles, rice.. we were all full and still had a whole huge plate of untouched peking duck meat. So we took that away for dinner.

Oh, Great World has like, themed toilets on every floor. The one we went into had a Japanese theme and I think if you went one floor down there was an Egyptian themed toilet. Luckily I wasn't arrested for taking pictures in a public restroom. Hahaha!

themed toilet

I went to the cinema and bought movie tickets for my grandma, my sis and I. My grandma went to watch 881 first. My sister and I were going to watch Ratatouille but our movie was only at 3 so we went around the mall shopping. Whee. Bought myself a pair of flats from Dorothy Perkins. Usually these kind of shoes don't fit my feet but this one does! So I bought them. They are my magic shoes. Hahaha.

dorothy perkins
They're really soft and comfy too. My feet drifts off to sleep in them.

Soon enough, it was 3pm so Andy and I made our way up to the cinema. My mom and aunt sat in McCafe the whole entire time we were in the theater. Although I bought the tickets three hours before the movie was to start, most of the seats were already sold out. Also, since they did not provide me with a seating plan of the cinema, I was not sure how much in front our seats were. The girl said that Row C was the only row left that was furthest from the screen that were available. So I just said okay. How was I to know.

Once we went into the cinema, Andy and I found out that our seats were only three rows from the screen. Erks. Everything was super big and I was lucky I did not end up getting a stiff neck by the end of the movie. Got a little bit dizzy though cos everything was so huge.

Damn, Miri, our cinema is so sad in comparison. The cinema was huge, ok! There were so many rows of seats and the whole place was sold out. Poor people in the first row. I hope they managed to enjoy the movie despite having to look straight up just to watch it.

And their seats were soft and comfortable.. the armrests were large enough to share and there were appropriate places to place our drinks. Miri's cinema seats are falling apart, the cushions have gone down from all the bottoms that have passed through, the seats are shaky from awful people who couldn't sit properly.

Oh oh! And you know what?! NOBODY'S LOUSY HANDPHONE'S RINGTONE WENT OFF!!! And no one answered their handphone and talked loudly despite other people trying to enjoy the movie. Sigh. Mirians are so rude and inconsiderate sometimes.

ratatouille2

Anyway, the movie was really fun and I enjoyed it! Oh, the way they made the food look.. the whole process of making a good soup.. how that little rat had so much passion to make good food.. that movie was so inspiring. I want to cook and transport others to heavenly places too!

paris_ratatouille_lg

Yes, I enjoyed the movie. It was funny, cute, and inspiring. The CG was once again, gorgeous. Hey, I want to go to Paris and try out all this "gourmet" food. I never understood gourmet food. Why they would make delicious things only to disappoint with how much they would serve you. It's like you can only have a taste of heaven, but you can't have anymore than that. I sound so greedy! But really. If their food was so nice, why do they torture themselves by having so little?

But I finally understand after weeks of not having any appetite! Cos the entire time I was in Singapore, I was never once hungry. I only ate because other people ate. And almost everytime, I wasn't able to finish my food. Maybe gourmet food are for people who don't have the appetite to eat. Hahaha!

After the movie, we all went home. And I decided to move to Evelyn so I went back to Marimosa with my aunt to gather my things but in the middle of packing everything back up, my mom called my aunt to say that we left our shopping bags back in McCafe! Oh no. My magic shoes!!

My aunt made a call to McCafe in Great World and luckily they found the bag. Phew! So after I was done with my packing, my aunt and I had to drive back down to Great World just to pick up that plastic bag. If we had lost it in Malaysia, the bag would've probably been taken. Gone! Haha. See how much faith I have in Malaysians. But you can't blame me cos you know it's true.

After picking up the bag, went back to Evelyn for dinner - our leftover peking duck meat plus a few extra dishes we managed to cook up.

hurrah another travel blog entry down

Friday, 31st August 2007

Today I stayed home and waited for my aunt to pick my mom, grandma, and sister from the airport. After she has picked them up, she came back and picked me up to go out for lunch. After that, came back to Evelyn (my aunt's new place where she hasn't quite moved into yet) because that's where she will be dumping my mom, grandma, and sis to stay.

That place is still new. No one has even moved into the next block yet. AND! The whole building is glass. And there are no curtain railings put up yet! So no one had any curtains. Eeee. You could practically look into your neighbour's place. You could also look outside and see all the rooms in the other blocks. They can do the same to you, be reminded. It's like living in a fish bowl. You have to remember at ALL times that you should not pick your nose, scratch your butt, or change in the bedroom.

What a hassle. But on this night I did not stay at Evelyn. Was still staying at Marimosa (which is right across the street) because all my stuff were still there and I was too lazy to move. Hahaha.



Saturday, 1st September 2007

Today, my aunt brought all of us out to Vivocity. First thing we did there was to have lunch. Well, we wanted to beat the lunch crowd. We went to Carl's Junior. Man, I so wish we had a NON-HALAL CArl's Junior restaurant here. But I heard that in Malaysia, Carl's Juniors were halal. Not to be rude or anything but sigh... non-halal bacon. See, that's why whenever I'm in Singapore, I also take the advantage to visit Kenny Rogers. Hahaha!

I don't even BOTHER to step foot in any of the Kenny Rogers restaurants in Malaysia. It's just not the same, seriously. I have this philosophy that to live life, you have to enjoy your food! If you're not broke or in desperate need of money, I don't think that when you order horrible food that you should waste your time in eating it. Just stop. Don't even bother doing that to yourself. It's your body and it's your life, you should enjoy it! Why waste time even feeding yourself such terrible things that might in turn make you sick anyway? But of course, everything in moderation! If you eat too much fast food, regardless of how good they taste and you don't exercise, you're only gonna make yourself sick as well.

Sigh. Miri has such sissy burgers. They're pale, limp, tiny, not even filling! When I eat burgers in Malaysia's McDonalds or KFC (oh, KFC is the worst! They have the tiniest, most sad looking burgers I have ever seen! It's even better to buy burgers from those roadside stalls, IMO). But Sugar Bun's burgers don't even look appetizing in the menu pictures. Now that is so sad. Anywho, pictures!!

After our lunch, what else could we do at Vivocity but to shop? Went to this one boutique (quite large) which sold relatively cheap skirts, blouses, dresses, and accessories. I feel bad. Going in there reminded me of a skirt I bought on my last trip to Singapore which I am yet to wear. Hehe. But I like that place. It's great. The clothes look very clean, classy, fashionable, and there's a lot of things to choose from and yet they retail for good affordable prices. Sorry I can't remember the name of the place though.

in a dress
OMG. Belly.

in my belly
What else could it have been? :P

Then my mom and aunt convinced me to buy a formal dress, just in case. You know, since it was cheap and who knows if I'd ever need one.. and also, "Since your prom is coming up." said mom. So that day, I bought two dresses. Since when did Kim even wear a dress?? Yeah. Crazy, right. My purchases for the day:

why did i buy this
Please God give me the guts to wear this. But please don't let people see my awful big gut that I have obtained over the months.

where do i wear this
I feel guilty. Like, real guilty.

Oh well. So, is anyone going to the prom? I never planned to go but I don't want to let the dress go to waste. Haha. Anyone wanna be my date? Wait, I hear Mark whooping with joy that I asked that question in my blog. He's probably hoping someone will say yes too. Lazy boyfriend! I guess this means I will have to pester him to bring me either to the prom or somewhere super nice otherwise.

... of all the rotten luck.

Sunday, September 02, 2007

if you were in malaysia, for sure already kena kidnapped wan

I think my aunt was talking about how the babies were just walking and running around the mall by themselves. :P

Today, I will be blogging for:
Thursday, 30th August 2007

Today was the day that Min would fly off to Canada. I was supposed to have woken up at 6am to get showered and ready but I had such trouble waking up that I only managed to get myself out of bed at 6.50am. And we were supposed to leave the house by 7. I quickly showered but luckily I wasn't the only one running late. My uncle was also taking his sweet time getting ready so we only left the house by 7.30. So the blame didn't go to me. Phew.

Luckily we managed to fit all the suitcases into the car as well as ourselves. We had to drop Alex, my other cousin and Min's brother, off to school first so that's where we went.

car speek
Just random.

with bangla person
Alex had a big red pimple smack dab right in the middle of his forehead. He called it his "bangla pimple". He would also call out, "My brothers!" to the construction workers that worked by the sides of the road as we would drive by. I told him he was an embarassesment to banglas everywhere cos he's too fair.

blur
Going over to the airport.

We reached the airport just in time too. Because they Min and her dad had to already head to the boarding gate as soon as they got their tickets and luggage checked in. Then we said our goodbyes.

airport
bye bye min
Seeing Min off at the airport.

Right after my aunt and I were done seeing the both of them off, we went.... shopping!! I feel guilty. Cos I've only been in Singapore a day and already I've been buying stuff for myself. Hehehe. This is me camwhoring in various fitting rooms. Actually, only Esprit and Giordano fitting rooms. And only because they had lighting in there so I was tempted to play around!! :D

horrible
I don't know how to take pictures of myself like this.

girl dunno how to wear make up
Camwhore.. I bought this tee too. It had my prince charming on the front.

camwhore
I'm an XS, just so you can buy me more tees from Esprit. ;)

changing rooms
The shirt says Handle With Care. It's like advertising I'm so fragile. Hmph!

pp x tau malu
Fun with mirrors!

silly girl
Dork!! I suck at taking pictures with the camera also in it. I should give it up.

yellow
I'm so yellow. This is the only picture I'm posting up that was taken in Giordano. Hee.

I bought myself 3 tees today and one pair of jeans. Together, my aunt and I probably spent about 300 dollars on clothes alone. Hahaha! But not only for ourselves.. we also bought things for my other aunts, my mom, my little sister, who would all be joining us tomorrow and on Monday.

shopping
My tees. Mine mine mine!

A long time ago, back when you could seriously call me skinny (you can't do that anymore cos now I'm fat), I used to wear waist size 24 jeans if you had bought them from Giordano. After I gained weight, I had to use either 25 or 26. BUT! Guess what? The jeans I bought today were in size 24. Lol. But I'm still fat. Maybe the jeans were labelled wrongly. Because ah.. it still felt rather loose like it didn't fit me right and it doesn't make sense cos I still have my huge ass. Hmm! Oh, and it was the smallest size in the whole place. I went around and that was the smallest size they got. For all the jeans and pants that they carried. So like totally wtf man.

waist
Wheeeeee... of course, I may only be dreaming.

Got home totally exhausted! But I still had assignments to do. Sigh.
