pam is being very irritating. as usual. we should just watch the movie at cathay laaa. lido is so smelly and expensive. cathay is cheaper, and even though it's only $1.50 cheaper, stillllll.

and i can't go to glori's house to eat dinner!! siann. why? coz i'm out with pam lor. and i'm now sitting at starbucks ATTEMPTING to do my risk proposal while waiting for her to finish reading her macro econs. i think she'd take forever. hmm. and i can't quite start on my part for risk coz i need to read mingjian's part first, and he's not replying me on msn. sighhh.

uh oh.. labtop batt dying. 37mins left and no power socket available =( sad.

cny this year is hmm normal. i just experienced the most awkward situation any young adult could have experienced. my dad's friends came over and yar i had to hide from them; i've been avoiding such old pple gatherings for a few years now. bleh. well, i just find it really weird when they stare at you and wonder who u are, and it's only when my parents intro me as their daughter that they start saying lame stuff like 'oh so big already ah' or 'oh your sister is so much taller than you'. sigh. how do they expect me to react? i'm not being anti-social, but i just feel weird to hang around with old pple. and my mum was wearing this bright red chinese top, so she seemed like a walking hongbao. i really hope my parents don't invite their friends over again. or maybe they can ask them over for dinner coz it's really a bit difficult for me to escape if they come over for lunch. hiding in my room is not really an option coz my dad would keep shouting for me to go down and greet everyone. SIGH. there was one year i refused to go down and he was SO PISSED he didn't wanna talk to me, he said i didn't give him any face. sigh. well i was wearing my sleeping clothes, so how on earth did he expect me to go down and greet everyone else who was wearing nice cny clothes?? sian.

and i find it really scary how old pple can make so much noice. either that or my house is really echo-ey. their laughter is resounding and they seem to be talking at the top of their voices and laughing hysterically at every small little thing. i think it happens with age. yikes. i hope i don't become like that in about 30years time.

i think cny is over-rated. family gatherings get slightly less akward as we grow older coz all the cousins feel less childish and we kinda make small chat. well compared to our younger years when we'd just sit behind our parents and hope the hour hand would swoosh past. but now, yea we're more independent and somehow have more common topics.

kristin said i cannot be so lazy. yes i know i'm lazy. well i guess i need a worthy competitor. competition pushes me to do better. otherwise yea.. as zong says, i'm very lum nua. sigh. perhaps i was a sloth in my previous life.

i feel like drinking the avocado shake at orange lantern! missing it~
