ARGH

I WANNA COMPLAIN!!!!!!!!!!! or rather.. I WANNA BITCH!!! I had this ultra ultra long blog... talking about how I spent my 15 days of CNY.. but..... blogger wasn't very very friendly... blogger doesn't like me... after half an hr of typing last night, blogger decides to send me an ERROR msg.... and *woosh!!!* there goes my half an hour's effort. *grumble* .. okiez.. this is going to be a really bitchy post.
So.. yesterday was a bad day. Very bad. First thing in the morning, I had to squeeze onto 170.. DON'T ask me why no one ever EVER queues up on Saturday mornings.. they just DON'T. Had to SQUEEZE on lorz... it's bad on normal days.. but yesterday... I WAS CARRYING MY RC UNIFORM!!! YIKEZ!!! So poor me... while worrying about those fat idiots (ok. I'm not slim. but nvm) breaking my hanger... and crumpling up my uniforn.... had to squeeze on 170.... this coming Saturday is another uniformed session... I wonder how I'm going to manage... and when course starts.............. -no comments-
Things always seem to get worse when you think it cannot... the way nature works is really really erm.. IMPRESSIVE. I got to Braddell mrt at ard 7.45-ish.. got tiaoed by a cadet on the mrt. She doesn't know me. Fine. I was wearing the volunteer's tee.. obviously a HQ instructor... but I got tiaoed. NVM. KIDS. HRMPH! She better thank her lucky stars that I don't know her name.. 'cos I know her sch... and I know her VIs. *evil* Anyway... I also met one of the BWLSS cadets... and she told me "Ma'am!!! How ah? I 4got to bring my beret" How am I supposed to answer? For a moment, I was really lost. Things at BWLSS are so different from what I am used to back in RG or while doing courses in TD... sigh. I told them.. I even smsed QY on friday evening... FALL IN BY 8.30am means 08 30 hrs... SHARP... but NOoooooooo... 8.30am some of them were not even in uniform... tell them to hurry up, they look at me as if I was speaking french. ARGH. *puke blood* OK.. so punctuality wasn't there. Drills standard... no one will believe if I said that they were going for FD comp in 2 weeks' time. As for the overall running of the whole training.. well.. the agenda is just a piece of paper with words that I am supposed to stare at. They can't even agree on who is the IC for the day. Pushing the responsibilities to and fro. No idea why. *severe blood loss*
Next was District FD comp recce.. that went along fine.. :) maybe the only good thing that happened yesterday. Got to see Mel, Huimin, YH and Jiafen. *happy* After that.. I went to Queen st.. thinking of taking the S'pore-Johor express home. Very tired by then. Queue was very long. Decided to take 170 instead. All was fine until we reached Bt Timah road. A malay family boarded the bus... 2 little malay kids... ok. Devil is a better word.. landed themselves beside me.. ('cos I was sitting on the last row..).. woke me up from my sleep with all their noise...and when I looked at them.. you'll think they'll start behaving themselves...and NOOoooooooooooo... the stared back and shouted "STOP IT" right in my ear... sheesh. What do I have to stop? 5 secs before that, I was ASLEEP.. I was in laalaaland playing chess with Zhou Gong!!!... Then they had to wake another guy sitting on the other side of the row... So... 2 kids wanna play.. 2 tired pple don't get to sleep... will they let us off? Noooooooo..... then they started making funny faces... sticking their tongue out at us. SIGH. I was feeling like a bitch then.. so I behaved like one.. After 20 minutes of their nonsense, I tapped on their father's shoulder... (he was sitting diagonally in front..bz talking to his friend.. not bothering about what happens to his little devils)... and said in a very polite voice... "Excuse me sir, can you get them to behave themselves please?" He turned around and scolded them and they shutted up. Malay guy on the other end of the row nodded "thank you" to me. He tried once again to sleep.. and so did I.. but 10 secs later..the kids started all over again. WHY.. oh WHY do I hate little kids?
When I got to the M'sian immigration, it just HAD to start raining cats and dogs. That was the only part of my journey where I have to be in the open... no shade.. and yay!!! RAIN!!! got wet of course.. DUH. BAD DAY. Relatives came over for dinner. Nothing much happened. Teng broke a spoon. but NVM. he's cute. he's not like those little devils. he's cute..and he's my nephew... *smilez* I like him. haha. Played with teng and little ter.. (the toddler my third aunt babysits) all is well. I thought everything was alright.. then decided to start blogging.... 'cos yesterday was the 15th day of CNY and I have not blogged for a long long time, I thought I'll write about what I had been doing for the 15 days. Blogger couldn't be nice to me.. it just had to make my day worse than it already was.... Haiz..... now I'm smarter.. I've got this blog saved as a text doc on notepad.. if there's error again later, I can just copy and paste. *smart* *glows with pride*

Tick... tock... tick... tock...

Hmm... time past really fast right? Someone I've known for 10 years is going off to study in Ukraine tomorrow. We were from different primary schools.. but we got to know each other through this erm.. common "enemy".. then we met again in secondary school where we were classmates in third lang class........we weren't close then...... after sec4, I thought we'll never meet again.. but I found her in my JC class after 1st 3 mths!!!! We even got into the same university in NZ... but..... things don't always happen the way you want it to.

Well, she has a chance to study something she wants to and I'm happy for her. But... kinda worried also. Ukraine IS a weird place to go right? I mean.. it's not one of the 'normal' choices... but... this may be the only way she can study medicine. Maybe we'll meet again in grad school??? or maybe we'll work in the same hospital in future? I don't know.

The chinese have a phrase... "tian xia wu bu san zhi yan xi" .. I guess it's time to say goodbye. I hope we'll stay in contact and maybe we'll meet up when we're back for holiday? :) Ling, here's wishing you all the best... take good care of yourself ya..

First day of new year.. Went for new year visiting... mostly my mummy's side one lahz.... nothing much happened lah.. my first aunt moved house.. so we went to her new place instead. :) Met some of my cousins and my little niece and nephew. Heehee.. so cute.. so cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kawaii desu!!! Then I went to my third aunt's place to play cards... Ermm.... ok. lesson learnt.. never play cards the way my brother does.. it doesn't work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let me explain.. you see, what my kor kor does is that if he loses in one round, he'll double his bet.. if he wins... he halves it.. but erm.. that way doesn't work for me!!! Lost like crazy... nvm. can always win again tmr.. er.. nono.. later today.. heehee.. aiya.. there are 15 days..... no fear.....

Oh... my uncles (relatives from my papa's side this time) came to my place today...... still the same lah.. the twins nephew I have... 5 years old liaoz.. still dunno how to 'jiao ren'.. and so notti... screaming and shouting...keep wanting to go upstairs.. don't like them. Bleah.. oh ya.. and to make matters worse, I'm bias! HA!.. Teng teng is so much cuter than those 2... maybe it's because I'm closer to him lahz...

Anyway.. I'm looking forward to the 2nd day of new year!!! Lotsa pple are coming to my place!!! But this year.... not gonna meet some of my cousins...... 'cos one of my uncles gotta work lorz.. so they gotta help out.. can't come over... so sad rightz??
