today was a very eventful day.

see kar wei because you said to blog, i am blogging!

[:

first, lets start.

this morning cgh called to say there was a free slot at 3.30 to see my asthma doc [who sadly does not wear his snoopy ties anymore], which clashed with the 2.30 appt with wan chee and her URA gallery boss. so. panic.

not a nice impression to suddenly chnge timing!

but as it happened it was better for him to meet earlier so i rushed out of the house wearing my sister's pumps which gave me 5 blisters on both feet.

i hate them. i want to kick them to boon lay.
because now my feet are in terrible agony everytime i am not careful with how i step. -.-
then ok. after the meeting, rush to cgh and PRAISE GOD the doc said he thinks the asthma has left as my breathing was very good.
oh. he also said : you've grown!

i am officially 155.5

the hospital measured me

the hospital is right, i'm sure.

oh and funnily, almost everyone there was old.. i was younger by 40 years easily.
------------------------------
sometime later, i discover an email in my seldom used, for-official-purposes gmail account from illinois u-c and horror of horrors it was sent 4 DAYS AGO

that was what spurred me to change my msn email to the gmail one so that i can check it more often.

i would like to thank

ONG KAR WEI
for her determined (albeit failed) attempts at helping me find the way to create a new msn account.
she is also very pretty.
she will tag.

ALVIN NATANAEL KUMARGA (i'm sorry if i got it wrong)
or, more affectionately known as Whitey,
for his WONDERFUL help with the new msn account creation.
sorry but i am compnoob. you are comppro.
THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
-----------------------------------

convo with moni:

convo with xianhui:

-----------------------------------
aiyah today was a more eventful day than i have described but since i am too lazy.. we'll leave it as that.

i love the Bee Gees.
really, i do. and their wonderful album of hits has kept me company many many times already.
i especially love the second album because it has exceedingly beautiful songs like 'emotion' (it is not written by Destiny's Child), 'too much heaven', 'love you inside out' and 'guilty'.

sigh. wow i wish i could see them live when they were young. just one concert!

i pray to God that i will not marry a MCP. if there is anyone i cant stand, its a MCP.

---------
my father keeps insisting that he's right. he is always right. if you are always right, why bother asking my opinion since i am going to be condemned as wrong anyway? so that he can feign a 'democratic' rule in this house?

oh, right.

this is what happened. my brother is in the midst of choosing ccas now that he is sec 1. and my father keeps insisting that he should join as many ccas as he can and that things like attendance and what not do not matter if you are good enough. and also, that a good cca record obtained by achieving in one or two ccas with some leadership positions held is NOT IMPORTANT.
now it certainly isnt ALL important but it sure is not UNimportant either. what i cant get is why he keeps saying that teachers, coaches, the school, all dont care if you attend or not so long as you are good. how to be good if you dont attend? naturally? how many people are naturally talented? it is not wise to assume your son is so powerfully gifted even if you think so. and then he went on to how i was so pathetic at softball, because i didnt learn from the Great Master, who incidentally, only played softball for one year oh, about 40 years ago. because you see, his rationale is that i did not learn anything from the method i was taught. so if i had undergone his tutelage i would have been the Indispensible Star Player!

my goodness. i cant stand him la. seriously. and he keeps insisting i get a job that will 'help me' in my future career. like interning somewhere, say some govt board. so i am supposed to pull the strings myself to get me interned there? everyone i know is doing a temp job. except for the lucky few who have parental connections to get them interned somewhere that will benefit their future career choices.

so dont think i am such a slacker and refuse to get a job. its that every job i propose he is not happy with. WTF LA OKAY

SERIOUSLY CANNOT TAKE IT. 9-5 JOB I MUCH PREFER TO THIS.

anyone who knows of any jobs i implore you to tell me about it! [:

WHY CAN'T i study psychology if i want to.
its my degree right.

and how do you want me to convey information to you, dear parents. normal people do it by way of conversation.
give me some credit here. i consulted ALL of you when i was selecting universities and now you tell me my choices are... limited? not enough? i didnt know you were applying to these universities?

WHAT do you want me to say? well.... i told you about... oh, i dont know, enough times to let any concerned parent know?

i bet they knew she applied to stanford, oxford, penn, cornell etc.
and i BET they knew he applied to CMU.

this is really the best. for like two weeks straight i have been mentioning uni apps. at almost every mention they will ask: which universities you applying to?

what am i, unnoticeable?


WHY CAN'T i study psychology if i wanted to?
and dont tell me now, just before i submit my applications. tell me RIGHT AT THE VERY FIRST MENTION OF MY INTEREST that
NO, THOU SHALT NOT MAJOR IN PSYCHOLOGY
and list the reasons:
1. you will be dealing with whack jobs
2. you need to be VERY grounded in the Christian faith
3. you need to be a VERY balanced person able to continually meet with whack jobs
4. i am your parent and hence my word goes

WHY TELL ME ONLY NOW THAT YOU VERY SERIOUSLY FORBID IT

TO SAVE TIME IS IT
