dear blog
today went to make new specs! was tempted to get clip on shades... but my sis said, "next time go to work, will be at aircon place right?" made a lot of sense. but still heart itchy itchy. lol
went for first facial! wasn't a real one... cos no poking. just the application of lots of stuff... the good thing abt the facial is, stayed up quite late today and my face isn't as oily as it usually might be! didn't get rid of my blackheads though.
travelled across the city area today! so was at orchard to get specs/facial. then went marina bay for sec 4 class outing, which 20% of the class turned up for. then we decided to eat at suntec. then after that, we decided to go ngee ann city for dessert, but managed to convince deyao to drive us there. hee... the ice cream was delicious!
after that, deyao "tricked" us into going to his house to play mahjong. piang... played till 130am juz now. at one point in time, was losing about $5! then went to the toilet and my luck changed! lol... later aki went too and she won the round after that toilet visit! deyao at first denied the luck-changing power of his toilet but succumbed to it anyway. but cos he went to the toilet in the same round as aki but AFTER aki, he still lost. LOL
so in the end, managed to cut my losses down to just 10 cents! yay! so why do i say we kenna tricked? cos deyao didn't wanna send us back. -_- so we shared a taxi. but luckily 3 of us shared, cos ended up paying just $4. =) quite cheap considering that it's past midnight already. the taxi driver was very friendly. telling me stories of chasing cheating boyfriends and sending spurned wives to ex boyfriends and taking people "around the world". =P i guess he was really bored and needed to talk to someone to keep awake anyway... =)
so got home safely to find that my brother was still awake - meaning pc still on... so here i am! hee...

The 3 rascals
Here are the 3 musketeers - Lei, Kai and Tristan - who are gonna turn laurie into a tomboy.
Pretty obvious who the siblings are... the 3 of them are 1 yr older than the other.
Poor photography skill on my part. but it was really hard trying to get them to sit down quietly for at least 10s to take photos. realised how important camera reaction time is when u wanna take photos of little kids. =P
my favourite cousin
Isn't she a dear? =) 2 and a half years old! ah ma thinks she adores me too... =) was wearing a tee a little bit short and whenever my tummy showed, she would say "cheh cheh shame shame..." and pull my tee for me! but the cute one did not realise that her pants kept slipping and her butt was showing every time she walked around. =P

my other darling cousin
Brit is so cute. She's really hardworking... She's always calling me mean, or saying things like "but i'm your flesh and blood" or "my blood is running through yours" or "blood is thicker than water".... anyway, she's cute. =)
she's the one who wants to be my bridesmaid. and keeps asking me if i wanna date her school's "administrator" which translates to clerk. and today she asked me what type of guys i like. so the first thing that popped into my mind was "intellectually challenging", as i quote some ST movie reviewer who reviewed "Before Sunset" and said "the sexiest part of the human body is the brain". and she said next time, she'll try to hook me up with a doctor. are doctors more intellectually challenging?
so today i helped her with her speech on regret. she was so happy in the end that she asked me to be her kid's godma next time. That's the great thing about teaching! to inspire the younger ones to do well. But i don't really wanna teach... or do i? Sigh... what to do? what to do?
No school tmr! or at least, no early lessons tmr! fieldtrip to BTNR to talk to Nparks. And it's the first (and only) mid-term break that i'm having w my siblings at home too! wah... all 3 Singapore universities having break in the same period! Imagine the 3 of us fighting to use the pc over the next few days.... Things are gonna get ugly. LOL...

more nonsense...
my mum was listening to the radio just now and they were promoting a valentine's package at kublai khan.they said that couples seldom go to chinese restaurants to celebrate v-day, and that the good thing about v-day is that give girls an excuse to receive flowers from guys. otherwise, the guys normally wouldn't buy flowers, except on special dates...
slow day. tuition later.

Feb 20th

we played mahjong! very long never play w xigua liao! n we think she also very long never play... cos she blur blur one... hee... in the end, i won some money! =) almost hit 清一色 but was waiting for the partner of one card, which was impossible to get since all the cards were out. Then that round, couldn't believe my "luck" and was laughing so hard, cried liao. =P i think also what prozac, aki n xigua said lar, though i can't remember already.
so been relatively lucky in certain areas, but still no luck in love. was at Times today and picked up a horoscope book. it said that 13th of feb is a good day for scorpios to seduce. what did i do on 13th feb? (refer to 14th feb post). was at the wedding... but was spending most of the time w my darling Laurie. then went melly's house. don't think i managed to catch anyone's attention or did anything "special", or did i? hmmm...

thought of the day
"If a husband fails, his wife must succeed."
seems like nothing much wrong with this statement. If you think about it, if it is the husband's life-long dream to do something but circumstances hamper his actions, perhaps his wife could take on the duty to complete the task. Like in those old Chinese dramas, where the virtuous wife tries to help her sick husband...
What's wrong is that this is a guy who refuses to take the advice of the people around him and keeps insisting that his actions are correct... doesn't listen to his wife either. so he's actually blaming his wife for his predicament, as if his failure has been at least in part caused by his wife. Frankly, i think the wife's biggest mistake was to marry a guy like that.
So terribly annoyed today.

Letter from an unknown woman
today my friend told me this story. It was written by Stefan Zweig, an Austrian writer 70 yrs ago... about a woman's devotion towards a heartless man. Really sad tale... The poor woman fell in love with the guy since she was 12... She even resorted to prostitution to raise their child. When they met again years later, he only saw her beauty and not who she really was. Despite the many hints she dropped regarding their past, he still couldn't remember her. Even his manservant recognised her! Anyway, her child died of typhus and she caught it too... hence the title. Her letter to her love at her death... Apparently, at the end of the letter, he still couldn't remember her.
It's been made into a Chinese film, starring Jiang Wen and Xu Jing Lei. The trailer is up on her website: http://www.xujinglei.org/letter/. The theme song of the movie is also very nice!!!

smoke, smell, shadow
it's 初九。 today is 财神 day? can smell the joss paper burning. the news today quoted the Met service as saying that rain will fall only at the end of the month. all the dead plants...
saw the shadow of a mosquito darting across my left. darn. only managed to kill one of its bloody *literally* companions. what do male mosquitos feed on ah? pretty sure people first coined the term "bloodsuckers" after ruthless ex-wives who fight their way for alimonies...
realised that i have fallen behind schedule on lots of stuff. assignment due in 3 weeks and i still have no focal point or any idea on how to write it. gotta finish up my resume too! start sending to companies? problem is, which?

it's alive!
my blog, it seems, has regained a more regular life after weeks of 1 post/week. much better than a certain mr P who decided to let his blog die till dunno when.
juz read some old emails, one of which was abt our visit to WWW. Makes me wanna go again!!! esp when the weather these days is so hot! all the grass everywhere is dying... except one spot at the corner near the pedestrian crossing at TMall. weird. can't figure out how come the grass still so green there... so hidden spring? hmmm... *deep-in-thought-look*
my latest mental and emotional assessment (courtesy of www.colorquiz.com) suggests that
Anxiety and restless dissatisfaction, either with circumstances or with unfulfilled emotional requirements, have produced stress. She feels misunderstood, disoriented, and unsettled. This drives her into a search for new conditions or relationships, in the hope that these might offer greater contentment and peace of mind.
That would explain all that babbling in the previous posts... lol...

How love came to be...
Plato's take on love: http://home.earthlink.net/~ekerilaz/hen.html
any of u singles out there hit by v-day blues?
realised that when you're younger, you tend to be more impulsive with certain things... like going up to a person to tell him/her that you like him/her. And then you may get rejected, cry over it for a while and perhaps take months or even years to get over it. but when you get older, people seem to be more shy and attempt the question differently: i would like to get to know you better. How romantic. But romanticism seems to have died out? or it has become a show of ego (refer to ST article on valentine's day roses to the office).
You dream of having a romantic relationship... and find that you might just have to settle for something less. One that is more down-to-earth, a meeting of minds, the baring of souls... without all the hooha. ATTEMPTED that but didn't work. No chemistry.
How well should you know the target of your love before you approach him/her for a date or declare your affections? I know people who want to exchange numbers after 1 meeting. Their courage is admirable...
There my sister is... comforting her friend who seems to have gotten dumped. So strange... my sis seems to be quite the relationship counsellor. LOL She says she hardly ever sees couples remaining friends after a breakup. How true is that? someone asked me that yesterday... depends on your level of commitment to each other? Somewhere out there some girl is crying her eyes out and not knowing what to do. Been there, done that.
Love is such a difficult game to play. And yet to win, will give you a life of blissfulness and happiness... and so we learn to take risks and bear with the heartaches...
And so i end, with the lyrics of "getting to know you" from "the king and i" and hope that everyone around me will find their sweethearts when they want to... =)
Getting to know you,
Getting to feel free and easy
When I am with you,
Getting to know what to say
Haven't you noticed
Suddenly I'm bright and breezy?
Because of all the beautiful and new
Things I'm learning about you
Day by day.

*muacks* HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!
it's 3.50am. can't sleep. couldn't sleep same time last week too. darn. this is really bad. mon's my longest day... mebbe i should reschedule tonite's tuition. doesn't help that there's a mosquito that gave me 4-5 bites every sun nite then buzzes around my ears as if to gloat. is that what's keeping me up? got one on the sole of my foot too. SIAN. some people tell me live on higher floors, less likely to get mosquitoes... i live on 7th floor leh... mosquito fly up from ground level? or maybe it's raising it's family in my neighbour's house but decided to come visit me every sun nite? -_-
anyway, shall not comment on chinese new yr since it'll mostly be about my darling laurie-ann. =) i think CNY celebrations so far this yr has been great! compared to last yr... although some people were missing in action. =( GET WELL SOON!!!
Yesterday my cousin got married! The thing about weddings these days is that it's so common to use PPT to feature old photos of the couple... then my younger cousin told me that every time she goes to a wedding, she starts wondering what her wedding will be like, then wonder who she's gonna question. Then came the inevitable: Cheh cheh, why you got no boyfriend? This being the same cousin who wants to be my bridesmaid n recently, decided to try her hand at matchmaking by giving me a brief intro of her sch "administrator" (frankly, i think he's a clerk) - my age, earns $7/hr and mostly sits around in the office watching people go by. She's a real darling... thanks for your concern, dear... But i think the situation isn't so bad as to require your assistance? =P
So yesterday was really fun n exciting! At nite was at melly welly's house. Merv managed to lose at Tai Tee even though he had all 4 aces. Unwittingly gambled for the 1st time. won $2.60 in mahjong. got full pts... actually over liao cos it was 对对胡 and 半色. then prozac had to get 对对胡 and 清一色。 -_- but it was really funny... we kept daring each other to do 平胡。 Then i did something impulsive when i got home. Is it gonna have any negative reprecussions? Hope not... hmmm... =P
Generally feeling quite pleased with myself with what i've done the past week. =) has gotta be my best holiday period ever!
it's 4am. i slept at 4am last mon morn. will i be able to get that 2h of sleep today? hmmm...
