it's DEEPAVALI. the festival of lights. i'm not a hindu so i don't celebrate deepavali. spent the whole day slacking and slacking, which includes using the computer and watching tv.
went over to my neighbour's house at9pm cause i heard loud popping sounds and i have nothing to do so go over loh. went over and saw that they are playing with poppers which you pull a string and all the things inside will come out. it's very fun. hang our for quite a long time. ate indian cookies. their pineapple tarts taste different from us cause of the additional spices added. the murruku is nice but also taste very weird. played with dharma. he's so hyperactive luh. it's 11pm and he's still running around, shouting and screaming. typical little children style. (:
SUNDAY
went for piano lesson in the morning. came back home and i was super high. don't really know why. wanted to go swimming but it rained. cur-sed. had to go to the library instead. went back home 1hr later and it's stopped raining. such a curse lah. so thought of going swimming if my dad's home but he's not. so no swimming for me. such a cursed afternoon.
went out in the evening to paragon @ orchard to shop for my sis prom dress. while driving, we stopped in front of a ERP gantry and my mum began: ERP = Everyday Rob People (money). quite retarded but it's quite through. everyday thousands of motorists pass through the ERP gantries islandwide and they are most of the time $10 poorer after they left. poor thing.
went metro and i walk around and around, looking and touching at almost everything i see. i was at the 'women's section' so you can imagine what i see. i saw bras, panties, g-strings, bikinis, dresses, shirts, diamond watches, diamond hair accessories which are beautiful. i had no where to do and always end up at the bra section which is like so dots luh. then went to takashimaya across the road. near the entrance, there sat 3people painted in silver or something, still. i thought it was just a fake. asked my dad and he say they are 'shi(3) huo(2) ren(2)' literally translated, it means 'dead alive people'. they are real people sitting there for i don't know what reason and people throw money at them. what a good way to earn money. LOL.
my dad ask me to buy ice cream. so i go and buy, then he come and look for us. after we go back my sis and mum are gone. so we start to find them. walked the whole of 2nd floor twice and the 3rd. takashimaya IS big. walk until my feet is pain. when we wanted to go to the entrance and wait for them, they called. it's like what a relief luh. but at least i got to look around the place. in total, we spent 2hrs shopping for nothing.
only had dinner at 9pm cause the rice won't cook. wanna know why? go ask the rice cooker why it doesn't want to cook the rice.
TODAY
the first day of the last week of school. reading period was too short for once since i just borrowed a nice book yesterday. there wasn't any post-exam activities today so we have normal lesson which includes 1hrs 10mins of PE. the period which quite a few of us dread. teacher made us play captian's ball and those in uniform in one team. it was fun i should agree and a little weird though. is either they keep on taking the ball and score or we take the ball and score. kinda lame though. after a while we all stop playing cause we are all hot and sweaty. it's such a terrible feeling.
recess was bad. shaun pangsei-ed me. making me have to eat alone. maths period. it becomes a lesson of learning 'probability' with us all playing poker cards, mahjong, UNO and more. it became like a gambling den i have to agree. even ms yoges could do nothing to stop us. english. went to computer lab to watch half a movie 'THE FOG'. it's meant to be really scary but i only got scared once cause the other times, i either couldn't see a thing or i couldn't hear a thing. so i didn't watch after a while. slacked and slacked. told mrchin about what happened in maths class and he said, "gambling starts with no money, then a little money, and the little money becomes a lot. then you become addicted." cause i told him we never play with money.
chinese lesson turned out to be just like maths class but it doesn't end like maths class. we recieved our holiday assignment which is like so darm crap. doesn't even help in our chinese at all. it helps in our designing and imagining skills more. mrwee suddenly walks into our class and made us stay back after school just cause we were noisy. teacher didn't help us at all. she told him we a little bit never listen to her just cause she don't want to get herself into trouble. TOTAL CRAP!!! now we have to stay back on wednesday during recess. rushed for hpt and they haven't even start. -_- mrs soh is not there. she came and told us something which a lot of us don't want to hear.
countdown to the start of holidays - 3days
