Lunar new year expedition

CNY 2007 was filled with intensive boredom and unsatisfaction. Once again this was the period to display my incorrigible habit of not socializing among my relatives.I would rather sit at some inconspicuous corner with my brother, enduring his snide remarks about my life and studies, than talk to my uncles, aunties and cousins.

Sitting around them was quite a nightmare for me. I was surrounded by people who share the same blood as me, yet I only see them once a year. The bonding was definitely not there. My mom was not helping either. She was talking at the top of her lungs, unaware of the bored look on my relatives' faces and an incredulous one on mine. During my stay at my relatives' house, I caught snippets of really insightful comments (*note the sarcasm) about their life, work and children's studies. I felt myself shrinking as my aunties and uncles surveyed me with beady and some rather distasteful look. I spent almost an hour at a corner with my brother playing golf on his hand phone, taking alternate shots at the fairways.

Thank goodness for the red packets to salvage the situation. It was like being paid to be scrutinized at, and enduring all the conversations around me.

Moving away from my disastrous CNY visits, I am now preparing for my semestral exams, taking place 2 days later. The guilt in my heart is growing heavier as I am not fully prepared yet. It is lucky that my dance trainings are suspended at the moment, that leaves me more time to study. Unfortunately I'm not the kind who can sit at the table for 2 hours, poring over my book. Hence leading to endless hours on eBay, scouting for the best bargains.

Things happen for a reason.

When a butterfly flaps its wings, a storm will be created 300 miles away. Mother nature will unleash her fury, and people's lives will be taken away, or else shattered by the catastrophe. Gaea is the one we should really be afraid of.

Sometimes I wonder if I should be comfortable in the current situation, where there are happiness and joy filled in me. I've asked myself this question many times, "Will it stay this way forever?" Or perhaps not forever, however I am contented if it is long term.


I have a great group of people whom I refer to as my friends(the caramel troupe), not acquaintances. We are together during break time in school. We have great fun, with laughter shared among us. However I often wondered if the strength of our friendship would be as strong as we proceed on with our poly life. I had cliques in secondary schools but they did not worked out. Hence my worry for the current group of friends I have.

Do I sound emo?

Wonder what's she doing now.

UPDATE WHEN I CAN
Here's a list of needs:

1. Lip Balm (top lips cracking, current lipbalm nearing expiry date)
2. Flat sandals (current pair falling apart)
3. Ankle-length socks (not enough, need it esp for dance)
4. business wear blouse (sister taking all away to Chicago)
5. Ballet shoes (current ones stinks)
6. Belt (for CNY; if not the whole outfit won't work)

Here's a list of wants:

1. Jazz pants (don't have one)
2. Flowy black pants (preferably from Bugis; cheaper)
3. Black eyeliner (no black)

So I have to try to obtain money legally, which means I have to either get a job, or to starve and save up my meagre amount of pocket money.
Options:

a) Work and earn money
b) Starve and save money

Of course I'm choosing option (a). No way am I going to cut down on food. I live to eat and I will make this statement true!

I'm am currently working at Eplaza, which means I get to earn some money. While I was shopping at Causeway Point yesterday, my former Boss from HSBC called me and asked me to continue my telemarketing job during my term break, and I accepted. Which means my March will be packed with activities. Dance practice and work at eplaza and work at HSBC.

I want to go back to amkss and continue my dance practice there. Anyone up for it?

I've started planning my study time-table and I realised that I do not have much time to study for my exams. I have 4 modules and I have to finish studying all of those by 23 Feb, which is my first paper. So that means I will be very stressed and have sleepless nights and I'll probably will get cranky easily. People, be warned.
