bj: *switches off all the lights*
grandma: OI
mom: don’t be crazy la none of the neighbours have switched off their lights

me: hi dad!! welcome to earth hour! cannot switch on light for another half an hour k
dad: for what ???
grandma: why you don’t read newspapers one
dad: you know my eyesight is bad in the darkness what if i have an accident
me: use torchlight
dad walks around grumbling
5 min later
dad: eh i have to fix your mom’s com so i have to turn on the lights
me: nooooooooo!
bj: eh walao don’t la i’m doing homework by torchlight
dad: no one is switching off the lights! where’s the evidence? show me show me
mom: show me show me
——————————————————————–
earth (half an) hour in my house is so fail! well first of all all the lights are off but we’re still watching tv/ using computers in the dark and ruining our eyes. hypocrisy much. second of everyone in the house is just switching on and off the lights cos they can’t see what they’re doing. third of all i am mediating a domestic squabble in the dark, which makes me lol and wtf at the same time. well. BUTTT in other news I UNDERSTAND MATH!! whoopeeee!! *pops confetti and dances around shrine of math tuition teacher* haha and i’m quite eco-friendly kay. i did half of ws 1 in the dark with light from my com screen.

whooo today was the epitome of a GRRRRREAT DAY! haha can you tell i’m still quite psyched at like, 1am in the morning? okay this was i have done the following in the space of TWO DAYS. this is a first!
- yesterday, i finished 1 econs ia and 1 chem assessed ia!
- i woke up at 10.30am today, without the help of an alarm clock! (usually i wake up at 12, 0.5 h before tuition starts haha)
- before tuition started, i arranged the chinese file. this is no mean feat ok. even the content page is in chinese?? spent a long time trying to decipher what was going to go where.
- i actually spent math tuition time efficiently cos i practiced complex numbers before hand so i had questions i could ask the teacher
- I FINISHED THE WRITTEN TASK OUTLINE!!! YIPEEEE three cheers for baoooo. but the story is pretty _______ though. it’s about some unrequited teenage love thingy.
- i printed out econs notes and UNDERSTOOD THE MONOPOLY DIAGRAM yay
- i watched synchronised swimming/rhythmic gym olympics just now!! yayness two favourites
- celebrated dad+mom’s 20th anniversary via dinner just now (seriously, who brings their kids and mom to their anniversay dinner?! apparently, my parents)
- bought a new swimsuit from arena. we have swimming pe next thurs. i’m actually not so traumatised about it now. at least i can learnt how to swim for free. yes. optimism.
- made a new batch of yogurt! it’ll be ready after i refrigerate it. it’s gonna taste great.
- talked to some old friends on msn. haha they haven’t changed a bit.
mmhm speaking of no 11. i was talking to shirley, geraldine and karen over msn just now. actually it was more like they added me and i watched them talk. hmm potential 4.14 gathering on friday? idk i wasn’t paying much attention to the convo cos i was busy with sth else. and where the heck is hsiufan! she seems to have disappeared?? she doesn’t go on msn and doesn’t have a blog and doesn’t have facebook/friendster and i dont have her hp number so she’s virtually uncontactable. we need our ex-monitress to organise an outing. ming and kc! let’s meet up again!
anyway i was talking to shirley (shudder o.o) and she’s still as blur as ever.

OMG?! |
like… wow. okay. apparently she also thinks that you can only upload pictures on facebk. she’s still as hyper and bouncy and cute and short petite as every though (you know, in comparison to some 183cm guys haha).
hopefully we can see each other on friday!! man i miss the art ppl/teachers suddenly. i miss the lion and the gigolo. :( i shall get them food or sth! since the aesthetics department staffroom is always filled with empty food wrappers. and i hope i can retrieve my coursework on friday. and maybe an syf award for art?? idk… we’ve been getting participation and stuff, so… haha, nvm. if i can get the fashion plates back i’ll post pics :D i really put a part of my soul into my art coursework okay… even though it might not be on the same level as the monalisa, it’s still special to be cos it was my first real piece of completed artwork, compounded by 5 (or was it 8?) excruciating boards of research. anyone who took o level art will understand.
i miss art so so so much. but what to do. i live under my parents’ roof, so i flow by their rules, so… :(
:( :( :(
p.s. hopefully i can finish my to-do list tmr too!
