Separated..

Being the poor gal i am, taking the MRT train has always been my main mode of transport.. So, it's little wonder that i've witnessed, on many occasions, friends or couples being separated by the train door... One person rushes into the train and the door closes after the 'beep beep beep" sound, and his slow friend is left standing out there on the platform, watching the train move off.. haha.. i'll usually feel sorry for the separated pair, but laugh in my heart at the same time.. =p

The above scenario actually happened to me today! =p Simon and i were at Redhill MRT station after dinner at BK IKEA.. Seeing that the train was arriving and the next one would arrive in 7 min, we hurried up the escalator to catch the train.. I was closely behind Simon, but the next thing that i saw was that he entered the train and the doors closed after him.. In fact, the doors were already half closed when he entered.. Being the timid me, i dared not try to run into the train cos i feared having my head or leg being caught between the doors.. haha.. So, there we were, looking at each other through the glass door and feeling stunned.. The next second, the doors opened, simon hand signalled me to enter, i entered happily! haha.. I kept asking why the doors opened.. Can't be because the driver knew i couldn't enter in time right? probably someone else was caught between the doors.. So lucky wor! Even the train didn't want to separate us leh.. hahaha.. In the split second when the doors closed after him, we were so caught by suprise.. That funny scene is now etched in my mind.. haha..

When i told mum and sis abt it just now, they were laughing like crazy.. I guess the way i acted it out made it very funny.. =) It was very funny lah.. Didn't expect that to ever happen to me.. hmm, i couldn't walk very fast with my high heels lah, or my short lil legs couldn't run fast enough.. =p Anw, when accidents like this happen, the right thing to do is to alight and wait at the next stop.. ;)

I want these 2 treats!

Today, on my way to sch, i suddenly felt like getting 2 things done to myself.. I told simon in the evening that i really felt like doing 2 things and asked him to guess.. WOW! I was really impressed that he knew exactly what i was thinking.. Rebonding and facial! haha.. Hmm, it wasn't easy to guess cos i hadn't been thinking abt doing rebonding or getting a facial done until a sudden urge to pamper and beautify myself overcame me this afternoon.. =p I wonder how he could guess them?! He's so amazing that i love him! I'm sure no one else can guess what i want so accurately.. cos everything is on my mind and i let out no hints at all..

Yes, rebonding again! cos i really feel like having long straight sleek hair.. I know my hair is already straight enough, but i wanna wake up every morning with good-looking hair that does not require combing at all.. hahaha..

Facial! Another relaxing treat i crave for now! ;p

The crucial thing is that doing rebonding, going for a facial and buying my skincare products would probably set me back by ard $500.. =( But, being the vain ME, i guess i'll visit the hairstylist at Jean Yip and my beautician very soon.. =p I should make myself happier..

Tired and sleepy..

FRI
I was caught in a heavy rain when i went for lecture at 8am.. My clothes were soaking wet even though i had an umbrella.. =( This was the 2nd time i went for morning lecture at 8 since sch started.. Never managed to drag myself out of bed so early all these weeks.. =p And when i finally forced myself to attend morn lecture, i was so 'lucky' to meet with bad weather.. Was shivering in the LT all the while.. Really regretted waking up so early to go to sch.. Should have just continued to sleep.. =p

Went for relief teaching at CHIJ OLGC again in the afternoon.. It felt great to have the girls remembering me and running by to say hi.. So sweet.. ;) Little girls are so pretty and adorable! Interesting things that happened during relief teaching:

1) Went to a P1 class for CME lesson.. They were supposed to draw an outline of their hands and write down the housework that they help to do at home in the hand.. One girl raised her hand and asked me what to write as she has never done any housework before.. Sweep the floor? No.. Wipe the table? No.. Throw the rubbish? No.. Wash your cup after drinking? No.. Wow, she has never ever done even the simplest housework.. =X Another girl asked me how to write "xie3 zi4" (wrting words) in Chinese cos she said writing was all that she does at home.. She thought that was housework?!

It made me realise that kids nowadays are so lucky and pampered.. unlike poor me who washes and irons my clothes, changes my own bedsheets, etc.. Washing, ironing, sweeping, mopping, wiping, cooking, etc are so familiar to me, but so foreign to them.. hahaha.. At least i know i'll make a gd wife.. ;p

2) Went to a P2 class.. A girl gave me a keychain she bought from Thailand and said that she liked me the way a boyfriend likes a girlfriend.. hahaha..

3) At the end of the lesson at the P2 class, i asked a girl i liked since my previous relief teaching session where 1L classroom was.. and she offered to bring me there.. So sweet! Really liked her.. =)

4) Saw how the girls say their prayers during assembly and flag lowering ceremony.. The school emphasised the importance of religion.. I was quite impressed with what i observed..

5) At the end of the sch day, some of the girls came to say goodbye to me or waved before they headed for their schoolbus or parents' cars.. So sweet.. I felt really happy to be well-liked by the girls.. hehe..

After relief teaching, i went to buy dinner and ice-cream for simon and delivered them to his place.. I thought i was being really nice and sweet cos i was very tired after waking up so early and an afternoon of relief teaching.. I could have got home in just 10 min fr the pri sch.. yet i took a bus and train to buy food for him and took a bus to his place again cos i knew his mum didn't prepare dinner.. At the end of the day, i was so tired and slept as soon as i touched my bed at 2am.. =p

SAT
Simon struck 2nd prize in 4D!! =) My sis' car plate no. backwards.. Haiz, i should have struck too.. but i didn't buy in the end, partly cos i caught a cold and was too tired and lazy to shade the no. in the afternoon.. and partly cos i felt i was poor and should save money and not invest too much in 4D.. =X I guess what's not meant for me will never be mine.. =p I'm happy for him though.. hehe.. i got a treat to KTV and supper! Thanks! =)

Sneezing and feeling very tired again now.. Need more sleep!

4D luck again! (",)

Simon and i struck 4D again! 9438.. one of the permutations of my sis' new car plate no.. Everyone in my family bought 3948, placing big bets on it.. haha.. I just had a feeling to buy 24 permutations, so i shared with simon.. and struck!! ;) Only $125 each.. but happy enough.. It probably made everyone in my family envious of us.. haha..

Update after so long..

Haven't been updating for some time cos my life just goes on everyday without any sparks.. but it's nice to see the 'no. of visitors' counter jump so much.. Thanks to all who are interested in my boring life.. ;p

Today, we skipped working out in the gym and suntanning cos simon din slp well at my place last night.. I had a cold last night and nv switch on the air-con, so the room was too hot for him.. =p Anw, i took medicine and the drowsiness left me sleeping like a log without knowing he missed out on slp.. I felt so sorry abt that.. So, we skipped gym for him to slp more.. =p Now that i've incorporated working out in the gym 3x a week into my life, it feels quite uncomfortable to miss a session.. I guess it's ok since everyone is trying to tell me i'm thin enough already.. Perhaps i've been too critical abt myself..

I bought a white adidas jacket for myself! I really love it so much! =) Think i'm becoming so stingy nowadays that i actually felt the pinch spending $79 on the jacket.. I used to spend much more money shopping without blinking my eyes..

The last thing that happened today made me feel very very sorry and guilty.. I caused simon to miss out going to the tri-fac bash and wasted his ticket.. =( I wasn't in my best mood and was irritated, sore, unhappy, jealous.. I wish PMS is the excuse.. I guess anyone who ever thought and said that it's his fortune to get me as his gf is probably wrong.. cos i'm just not gd enough..

I'm tired.. Can someone tell me that i'm doing well enough?
