5/6 left
In bman's theory, we had 5/6 of our IAP left, so just tolerate 5x more of this kinda torture and we'll survive. Um well... it feels more like 10 months left then 10 weeks left. WHY!!!
Um anyway, I DID go for the movie in the end, cos I wanna escape before Bugs Bunny (some ppl will know who) catches me and asks me to do more research. Saw bman staring at the EA competition ( I thought he hated EA... ), and then we went of for dinner at LJS. Just sat there listening to him talk about his current horrible work environment. Then I realised, my IAP isn't that bad afterall, compared to Elmo's JM'S and Buggy's, and even bman, who had an aircon and a 32" TV all to himself. I was like... in a peaceful environment, as long as I tolerate the boredom and monotony of my work. What made my work bad was cos of the lack of experience I have going solo. Yea, I need to overcome this because, after poly, the sad reality is I'll be the only one going to U/work while the rest goes busting mosquitoes in NS. Poor them, lonely me =/ I'm gonna miss DET(not SIDM) badly... most of it anyway. I'm missing them now!!! Hammy please don't go to Boston! Princess please come back from China!! *sob*
Unhappy (but factual) thoughts aside, bamn and I got tired of rotting in LJS so we went to Fuji Ice Palace. I saw the "old lady" (ok, she's not old, I'm just jealous ="=), and this time she was well-covered, so I wasn't that pissed off as I was 2 yrs (haha) ago. I envy those who can skate... I wanna try it. bamn said falling on ice won't hurt that much, so mayb I'll go next week after work... Hee...We went to watch the movie at 8.45pm, cos JM n Buggy needed to go withdraw cash. Buggy was afraid of bman for (obvious) reasons. So cool, Buggy can be afraid. Whee~ And JM was emoing *looks at black pinky nail*. AH go cut your hair JM!! U look like a disturbing Tranny with Beatles hairdo! *reminded of some DMD tranny sashaying in purple shirt and tight vest* yuck!!! Anyway, we watched Pirates, and all the while I was thinking, "so stupid, how the *** people tried to publicise Singapore with Pirates 3... they obviously didnt watch it, or were too crazy after Panda-man said "welcome to Singapore" that they didn't notice "Singapore" was being blown to pieces ="=" Ohter than that, it was Johnny Depp heaven for me... LOADS OF JOHNNY DEPP!!! whee~~~ haha *Teddymode* mine... all mine... *shoos silly crabs away* *hoists tiny(not) self up the Black Pearl and perch on Jack Sparrow's hat with a triumphant smug look* Teddymode wuvs Jack Sparrow/Johnny Depp... whee~ But the storyline was... a tad confusing, but I kinda get it. Maybe the time spent on unweaving and wrapping up each characters' story was too short. And the Brethren Court was hastily thrown in and weaved together with the shallow love story of Calypso and Davy Jones. Spoiler for those who haven't watch, but, I doubt anyone would understand that bit if they really haven't watch. Those critics who gave Pirates 1 star are dense people who cant piece the puzzle together, or are blinded by Kierra Knightley's wooden acting so much, they blamed the entire production, hook, line and anchor ="=
Shan't go into more details. I just love Pirates so much. And I think I'm gonna buy the OST of Pirates 1,2 and 3. Hee... *wallets bursts into flames* Arg!!! *Teddy pads paws furiously on fire, in a desperate attempt to put it out*
Er anyway, I've been spending alot lately. *bashes head into wall* Just that movie trip alone costed me about $20. $9.40 for food(lunch + dinner), $9.50 for movie... NOOOOOOO! *stares at charred wallet* And ytd, during the outing, I was on an eating spree. *thinks of dim sum... drools* damn, why do I eat so much? Arg!! Yesterday was fun and torturous at the same time. And it gave me a clue as to where Piglet might disappear to. *stares at usual suspects JM, Elmo and BHammy, and accomplices BCH, BT and M&S* Anyway, we first started out by waiting for Elmo n Bhammy at the stn first and then mac's. JM was SURPRISINGLY early... haha... and didn't look as disturbing as he did on Friday. Wonder if he trimmed his hair or was using Gatsby Rubber *shivers at lame commercial* When everyone came, we looked for a place to eat. Regretably, there was no Fish&Co. Aint my fault they didn't open here. I thought Vivo had EVERYTHING. Boo, so lousy... So we went to FoodRepublic, cos BHammy didn't want Western (understandable). FoodRepublic was... a freakin expensive place that doesn't serve food as nice as the price... Anyway, we managed to find a seat, and me and Elmo ordered random Dim Sum, while BHammy ordered prata and Dim Sum. As for JM who doesn't eat "Singapore food" he ordered some funnily expensive "Singapore dessert" and a steamer of Har gao. My Dim Sum costed a "mere" $7.50. And mind you, I haven't spent 1 hour in Vivo yet ="= *pats dear wallet* Then we went to the Roof Garden, and for once I was glad not to wear shoes. You know why? BECAUSE WE COULD WADE IN THE POND!!! so cool, Vivo suddenly became my fave haunt... Me and elmo waded across the luke warm water, that somehow massaged and soothed our "aching" feet. Didn't mind getting my jeans wet... It was relly neat... pity BHammy and JM couldn't experience it... After that, we went to Pet Safari. And saw... dogs... Why are there no cats??? *sniff* Anyway, there are really cute hamsters there, and I was tempted to buy one. Be still dear mother, I didn't. We walked over to the dogs corner, and the moment of dread came. The dogs look so pitiful and sad inside the display case, and while others were crooning "Oooo, so cute!" I wanted to cry ><>
After that we went to Daiso, where I finally bought the Tohato Caramel Corn in Strawberry *happily munching away* and Sanjiko Coffee and Milk. Why don't Daiso stock up on UCC coffee??? bah...$4 gone in 10 mins... record for me... After that, went to Vivomart to find BHammy's waist pouch. And magically, Elmo's shoe fell apart.. So we went on a search for "the perfect slippers" Everyone was tempted to get a pair... But in the end, only Elmo and BHammy did. Hehe... after that, we went to Yoshinoya (after JM withdrew money) and ate our (me and Elmo) Beard PaPa Strawberry cream puff ($2.30 gone like that... *sob*) It was nice, crispy outside, fluffy inside, with sweet, sour and yummy Strawberry yoghurt as it's filling. Whee~ I'm strawberry crazy these days.. hehe. Or maybe plain crazy, cos I poured BHammy's (yucky) Melon soda into JM's miso soup bowl... and JM added loads of ground chilli in it. After 1 hour of coaxing, encouraging etc, JM spooned a little of the weird concoction into his mouth. And shockingly he took another big sip of that mixture.. and choked. "taste like wasabi" he sputtered. Really? 0.o whatever u say.. I'm not gonna drink it anyway...
Anyway, we went M&S after that, cos Elmo wanted to get their "delicious mushroom soup". I went looking for clothes and found their wares... more matured than what I'm used to buying. And I spotted BHammy giggling, and JM had a suspicious look on his face ="= And then they brought me to the food section and I saw... PERCY PIGGIES!! WTH is that? PORK GELATIN??? This is sacriledge!!! My Piggy!! *faints* And the torture continues even after we left... this world is unfair to cute little piggies... *sob* I'm gonna live in Arab, where no one eats pigs because of religious region, and Ill be safe from Piggy torture... *sob*
The trip home wasn't uneventful either. WHY THE HELL MUST FREAKING BANGLAS SPOIL MY RIDE?? Ok, first off, I'm not a bloody racist(I hate other people too), and secondly, I dont think ALL bangala workers here are pervertic, just that I've NEVER encountered a decent one before. Thirdly, I understand that working far from home is taxing physically, mentally and emotionally, but bloody hell please go GEYLANG OR LITTLE INDIA OR CHANGI VILLAGE TO SATIATE YOUR PERVERSE ISSUES!!! On the way home, we encountered one such creature. At first, we were hit (bombarded more like) by a pungent smell of curry powder, various spices, and BO. Ok, tolerable because we're polite people, so I whipped out my perfume and spread it on Elmo and me. But, when the 2 people beside Elmo vacate their seats, that creature didn't choose to sit the corner seat (away form Elmo) but BESIDE ELMO. I mean, what's your problem? Normally, people wouldnt sit next to strangers unless necessary (Asian style mainly), and especially guys, wouldn't deliberately sit next to a girl unless necessary, lest the girl screams molest or something. So why the hell must that creature sit next to Elmo despite having a more comfortable and roomy seat at the corner?? And when we shifted so that there will be a space between Elmo and that disturbing creature, he stared at us. Crap, does that creature want his bloodshot pervertic eyes to be dug out so badly? Why are they always staring at random female bodyparts? Crap.
Anyway, on the issue of girls screaming molest on trains, we rarely encountered that in SG. Cos we're too polite to kick up a fuss, and think kicking up fusses are for dotty old ladies with nothing better to do. Wrong. We got to do what Jap girls and HKers do when offended on train. Scream, shout, holler and embarrass the other party. Don't be embarassed, you're the victim, no one will fault you. Chances are, by doing so, the train will be a more creature free place. Next time I encounter such things, I'll surely scratch, bite and kick that creature to oblivion and make sure someone videos it so I can post my moment of glory in Youtube. Civilised commuters of the train unite! We must fight against disturbing couples who have no money to rent a room, disturbing foreigners with inconsiderate behaviour (like taking 2 seats, talking loudly, elbowing their way for seats), disturbing men(Banglas esp) who pries on civilised girls (becos Ah Lian's are a dime and dozen in Geylang, not fun to stalk), disturbing uncles who wear bloody disturbing short shorts showing their pale and hairy legs (Uruha is not an uncle, and his legs aren't hairy, and he doesn't take trains in short shorts), disturbing Ah Bengs and Ah Lians of every race and culture who likes to blast music (even Mozart is unpardonable) on the train. Please, get earphones or something. If you're too poor to afford that, don't listen at all, or jus walk to where you are going and save the transport fare for your earphones. People like me gets disturbed listening to Cao-ge screeching Superwoman like some constipated sissy. So spare me.
Teddy has claws and sharp teeth. Beware...
