Hmm I’ve decided (perhaps a long while ago) that I don’t really care anymore. And that probably explains why I sauntered the whole time this morning and I wasn’t panicking at all when I left the house at 830.
As I walked into the train, I told myself ‘so this is how it feels like to live day by day’. Then I paused and corrected myself ‘hour by hour’.
How depressing.
On a sidenote, one of the male staff here permed his hair! So now he looks like pck lol. And he’s only in his late 20s btw. I overheard an interesting convo between 2 female staff about his new hairdo:
A: what happened to his hair? He looks so weird!
B: I asked him what happened and he said he wanted volume. Haha.
A: volume?? I’ve never heard of a guy who wants volume
B: exactly! Now he has a currypok head!
Another one of the staff thought he was wearing a wig and asked if she could pull his hair lol.
Oh well, nobody really knew what kinda shock he underwent. But it did add some excitement into everyone’s Monday I guess. Haha. This place is gravely quiet 99% of the time. Ap said she could hear me crunching my apple very loudly even though she’s seated like 4m away. Just for illustration purposes, even a whisper here sounds like a supersonic boom. (and there is no exaggeration involved)

and so i've realised that pple think that i look like an old granny when i wear my specs. sigh. i always thought i looked quite nice in my specs so i'd try to wear it along the corridors for fun sometimes. well, what an embarrassment! ap says my specs shape is weird.. really? i chose it after trying on so many other pairs leh. ts said i looked so bad that although he only saw me wore it once or twice, he completely remembers how i looked in them. sighhh.
i really think i don't have an affinity with specs. i was trying on ap's specs yesterday and both ww and her were speechless. i suspect i looked like some geek from the 80s lol. ww tried to put it as nicely as possible, she said that i looked 'weird'. lol. so well, when the ever-nice ww says something like that, i think i really looked like crap. then i tried on jason's specs; his were those frameless type. the rest said i should have just chosen the frameless type, but when i saw the photo of myself in those specs, i personally think i look even more like some teacher-like granny! well fortunately for me, i'd only have to look weird during lessons/lectures lol.
k on hindsight. i remember how i ALWAYS look like crap when i try on most pple's specs. fine. i shall minimise wearing specs.
anyway, we were also discussing about aging. and i've come to the conclusion that it's ok (albeit a little sad) to grow old as long as you age gracefully. we noticed that some pple around us aged really nicely, but most of the others.. well.. aged not as gracefully haha. so fellow aging females, it's time to stock up on anti-aging products this very second!
mango sale later!
23 more days~~

lol i'm so excited! just got invited to 2 21st birthdays on the same weekend!
sat: gav's bday (not confirmed yet)
sun: bean's bday
haha even though i'd be seeing the same pple, but i think it'd be fun. believe it or not, i haven't been to any 21st parties this whole year! my friends seem to prefer casual dinners; understandable but unexciting. haha.
anyway i'm kinda feeling the need to get fb. i'm always the last to know that i'm invited to some event. sighhhh.
birthday parties. how tempting. aiya but so mafan.

i shall now officially promote you to ‘Professional Claims Analyst’ok my boss didn’t exactly say that, but looking at the work that is given to us, I should think we have been ‘promoted’ to that position. I think I need to crunch on carrots every night now. Staring at excel and looking at the claims one by one is really quite detrimental to my eyes. Btw I tried raw carrots for the first time yesterday and even though it was organic, it tasted quite horrible. It was kinda bitter? A little alkaline-like? And it’s only vaguely sweet. So i don’t quite understand why my dad and oakey enjoy chewing on raw carrots so much. Gross. I think I’d stick with raw baby carrots – sweet and soft lol.
I’m watching this new drama called ‘defeated queen’, it’s about this successful and smart 33 year old female who is a workaholic and hence single, until ethan ruan comes along.
so it’s a puma-little boy* type of love. What forbidden love. Ok I know I’m conservative, but 8 years leh! That’s almost a decade! She should have just gone with her snr. Oh btw mari told me that it actually happens in real life – her female boss is like that!! Tsk tsk.
*fyi: when an older woman dates a younger guy (20yrs), the female is called (depending on her age)[source – urban]
30 yrs – puma
40 yrs – cougar
50 yrs - jaguaranyway I think I’m getting old. I feel it. SIGHHHHHHHHHHH. 21 years old is really very very old. I’m getting embarrassed when people ask about my age. Now I understand why older women are so sensitive about their age and wen refused to celebrate her 21st bday in jan lol. Birthdays just remind us that we’re getting older.
Old
Older Oldest.

i'm so glad the "Big Bird's Brainy Wisdom of Life" managed to see the day of light again. thanks bean! =)
i was reading it just now, and i was giggling uncontrollably to myself. i think my other colleagues must think i'm mad. haha. but well, as much as i can't believe i'd say this, i actually miss ah guat. she was the most memorable chem teacher i ever had. literally one of a kind haha.
here are some of her classic quotes bean collected, it's kinda short though coz bean only started collecting it in the middle of year 2. if we had started from j1, i'm quite sure we could have written a book and made it a bestseller! lol

Patisserie Glace~
Well after watching the channel 8 show recommend this cake shop, I had this sudden craving for such cakes! Actually I wanted to try it out with mari and kris on sat, but it closed kinda early, so I went with my mum and sis to get it yesterday! Lol it was definitely worth the trek up the little hill and walking in the hot sun. i think it's actually quite famous coz it's located in a ulu shopping centre at tanjong pagar and it was a sunday afternoon, YET there was a queue for the cakes! haha i think i need to start discovering good and cheap food all over sg, it's so exciting! ok, the cakes weren't THAT cheap, but i'd rather pay this price for this than the stale ones from coffee places. haha



My sis with her fav strawberry soufflé. And oakey’s eyeing her cake lol

Me posing with the super yummy mont blanc!

Haha my new nerd look! No la, I’m just playing with my bro’s new army specs. Anyway I think I look like crap in thick frame specs. Haha.
oh and on fri, i met up with anna and ky. lol re-living the jc days was really quite memorable. hopefully we can meet up as a class soon =)
