last night was more awesome than i expected. crazy when the kids grow up, and you can watch through half bemused eyes at their cunning ways.
-ben goh that was so delightfuly cruel!
ate a ton, wished there was a vomitorium to upchuck and eat some more. people with eating disorders never cease to confound me. how can you just...NOT..eat. food, sleep and eyeliner are the biggest necessities of my life. god, i sound so vapid.
i refused to play bball because of my lack of any mAd b-bAlLing SkilLZ whatsoever, and instead hid in the "bathroom" with "constipation", and having a little tete-a-tete with she-who-shall-not-be-named.
-oh my god i cant stop thinking about harry potter. no, im not another annoying fangirl, but this book was by the far the best of the lot. if they make it into a movie i will scream like a little girl during the cave scene.

starting today, ihave 15 more days until school starts. have i told you im going to be super nerd for the rest of the school year? no kidding. NOT impossible. it doesnt matter that last year my schedule was basically: homework on the bus, going home to talk on msn while scribbling a sentence every 15 minutes and sleeping at 1 am; :: if i say i can turn my life around, i can, damnit.

ok, now that my grandfather as stopped talking in complete sentences and goes around touching objects and making "hoo hoo" sounds instead...i think i better try to figure out what he means by pulling on the door handle and hoo-hoo-ing my shoulder. so cryptic! looks like fun.

(edit)
HAHAHA i thought this was hilarious.

"Soup Blurbs (taken from mcsweeneys.com)
Sirloin Burger and Country Vegetable from Safeway Select is a lavish meditation and a contrast in soups. At one point, bold and filling; at others, light and airy. You must eat this soup."

"This year's breakout soup."

"It leaves its eaters a little fuller and, somehow, a little wiser."

"The soup will not only be placed in your cupboard but also next to your heart."

"For a young soup, it has an eerie maturity. When I ate it, I felt like the soup was courting me."

"The kind of soup that makes you laugh, and then weep into the bowl when it's done. At times you'll be doing both, which, come to think of it, is kind of the point."

"The soup swirls in your mouth deliriously, tumbling down like gifts of gravity tow
ard your stomach, leaving your mouth heartbroken for the memory of lost love. A Proustian soup if ever there was one."

"I don't know how else to say it. This soup was born to be a soup."

i told my maid i was going to try to lose 3 kilo, and now everytime she sees me even EYEING fattening food, she either reminds me of my prestated declaration, or gives me "the look". ugh, amazing how much the combination of the direction of someones eyeballs and a greasy chicken wing in your hand can make you feel guilty.

its 1 am and my sister is still reading the new harry p. i take that as a good sign, since the last one, i thought, was rambling, self indulgent, and unfocused. TOO BAD SOMEONE DIES IN THIS ONE. TOO BAD SOME MEAN PERSON ALREADY TOLD ME WHO IT IS. i fucking hate spoilers (obscenities count: II)

whoa nelly, ithink im getting a little too obsessed with this blogger thing. i found out a lot of random people stop by my site everyday, but dont leave comments on my tagboard, meaning that, even through all my wiles and guiles, i can never find out who these anonymous onlookers are. ARGH that drives me crazy!

so...rock star INXS. does anyone even care? i think this show really pushes the barrier....into REALLY HORRIBLE STINKY TELEVISION! rockstars arent made from reality tv, theyre made from their music and its originality; their reputation built over the years; connection to fans..the list goes on, but does not include- wearing leather pants and prancing around a stage to impress judges.

luckily we still have bands like this: to keep rock alive.

they are called The Shins. Yessss. i'm also starting to like

(my chemical romance) a bit nowadays, although thats kinda weird, because i always thought they were pretty mediocre last year. but the lead singer is soso cute, and that can always sway my heart, y'knw.

my goodness, ive been blogging so frequently these days. maybe i should cut back. meh. probably impossible. my sister is giggling in a corner to herself now! maybe i should go check out what this hype is all about.

So i for one am SO sick of these stupid little euphamisms that have invaded the english language and rooted themselves in common speech. for example, when i was complaining about how a lot of the races in Singapore are pretty racist subconsciously...someone commented "well we're all part of the same race...the human race." a spinoff of that commonly heard phrase is also: "we're all citizens of the world." so to protest against these sickeningly overused 'catchphrases", i present to you.... the most cliched phrases of the english language

1. a chain is only as strong as its weakest link.
2. beauty is in the eye of the beholder. (youre ugly. just face it.)
3. alls well that ends well.
4. when the going gets tough, the tough gets going.
5. its raining cats and dogs
6. to have your cake and eat it (or something like that. i never got this one...why wouldnt you eat your cake if you had it?!)
7. to cry over spilt milk
8. time flies when youre having fun
9. time heals all wounds
10. (and of couse..) to make a long story short.

lets all unite! together we can get rid of this jargon. make it kick the bucket.

-anyone have other phrases i might have missed? feel free to add to this list.

I've (finally) left the 'azn pryde' joke that xanga has become and joined the less popular, but cool nonetheless blogger.com! if blogs were high school cliques, i'd say that xanga would be the group of asians who stand in a circle and gossip in their native tongues and never talk to anyone else; livejournal/greatestjournal would be the "cool" scenesters who think theyre the shit (oh shoot, ive already sworn. i was trying so hard not to, at least for the first post!); myspace would be the popular kids, and blogger would be the mass mediocrity, wuth a few cool kids and a few losers.

does anyone with skillz want to help me design a template? i dont need anything fancy...but lichtenstein-esque pop art pictures would be nice. for your time, i'll think of some some fancy reward in exchange.

anyone in singapore should really check out the singapore arts museum down by bras basah road. i went on a weekday, and the galleries were completely deserted, which is quite nice in a spooky way. there was this one, ginormous abstract painting in particular that i cant stop thinking about..it was painted as if the artist was lying on the ground, and you could see blurred images of businessmen (and a certain curvaceous woman in a red dress) walking across, with ominous grey-scaled buildings behind them. and on the sidewalk there was a carcass of a cat, below it was written: "while the men carried their dead in stretchers, they left on the sidewalk a dead cat. and if they would bury it, they would do so because it stank, not because it had a soul".

ok i think a bug just flew into my ear. better go dig it out. my body is becoming a burial ground for insects i tell you...during swimming today im pretty sure i swallowed half a dozen that were floating around the middle of pool. grossssssssss
