Christmas came early this year! Well, for me, that is. Aunty Irene sms-ed me this afternoon and asked if i'm free to go Christmas shopping with her at Vivo and i agreed, since i was bored to death at home. Yeah, procrastination to it's maximum. Anyway, we changed the venue to Marina Square because i don't really like travelling to Vivo, for the journey is enough to make my butt numb. So we met after her work, i was late as usual, and went to Millenia Walk for dinner first. Oh yes, that's when i received my first Christmas present! She gave me the best present one will never get sick of receiving - monetary gift! Because i didn't went to the Malacca trip with them(her friends and family as well as the 2 other attachment friends), which was her treat, therefore she gave me the money that was supposed to be spent on me as my present! Don't i sound like a gigolo? I know! She also gotten me a book, which seems interesting. I told her that the book is enough but she insists on me keeping the money cause that'll be fair-er to me, and she's stubborn as a bull. Of course, i'm not implying that she's a bull, but rather a form of description, lest people starts saying that i'm mean. After dinner, we went on our Christmas shopping, where she bought snacks for her family gathering use (which i managed to benefit 2 packets of snacks) as well as presents for her close ones. I, on the other hand, bought tee for this Saturday's advanced Christmas dinner with Aunty Irene and attachment people. Before going home, we stopped by Secret Recipe for some cakes and milkshakes. And now, i'm a happy boy! I've decided, i shall call Aunty Irene my godmum now, something which she had asked me to and which i should have done a long time ago. I mean, i feel bad by classifying her as a friend after all that she has done for me, jerry and zhaoyu. So yeap, i think the title "godma" can't be anymore deserving. And while on the way back, there's this uncle who's sitting at the corner on the opposite aisle, that seems to want the whole world to know that he's quarreling with someone at home. Constantly yelling "fuck" to the phone before hanging up on that person - at least twice! I mean, come on! Stop being a sissy! I know my behavior tends to be less "mr macho" but at least i don't whine on the phone loudly, plus shamelessly of course. If you're mad at that person, then stop picking call from that someone! Noise pollutor. And the person on the line is annoying as well. If Mr Uncle is angry at you, and hung up on you, then have the backbone not to call back! Pffft. I wonder what he stand to gain by letting the whole bus hear his "amusing" conversation. It comes to show that age doesn't necessarily makes you any more mature than people who're younger. And vice versa.

She's the Meltdown of the Year. The train-wreck. The wasted. Worst dressed. Junkie. Worst Mom. All the negative words you can find in a dictionary is used on her, but she's still the queen of all media. One can't help but hound on to her news like a starving dog. Like it or not, she is on the tabloid everyday and she proves that she is still much in demand. I personally don't care about any of her erratic behaviors because we don't know what happen behind close door. But all i know is that she has a brand new video for her second single, Piece of Me, and it's looking AWESOME. I love it. It's none other than the legendary Britney Spears! Seriously, Blackout is such an addictive album, and i am so in love with it. If i can give out Grammy, that'll be Album of the Year for sure! Not because of vocal ability, that i can be honest, but because of the material. The video is miles better than Gimme More, and she actually dances a little in this video, towards the end! Finally, no more stripper dance move.

The paper yesterday was such a "breeze", the term "common test" is now taboo. Maybe i should inform all the friends, so that they'll be aware not to ask, because i'll take each opportunity to whine like a spoilt brat. Anyhow, shall think about it no more because it's the term break! Doesn't it sound nice? I mean, break = holiday! I am happy that it's the break now but at the back of my head, i know that there's tons of projects that needs to be done. Literally, TONS of it. I ain't lying. So after yesterday's paper, met Nazi and WeiQi and the newly opened CoffeeBean outlet at RailMall for what else, but their coffee. Just a short meet up but i enjoyed EVERY single second of it. Like i've said many many times, seeing the friends is therapeutic, and it works especially well after going through such crappy paper. See! I'm whining again! Haha. Had loads of fun laughing hysterically with the friends and i'm sure the whole place was packed with our noise. It's so much fun and there's times where i've to try and hold myself together so as to prevent myself from snorting. I tend to do that when i laugh too hard, and it's bad! I can't laugh like normal people, i wonder why. I either snort like a pig or i shriek like a horse. How amusing. Anyway, can't wait for the next meet up with the friends! I'm always anticipating such activites!

Today, went out with the lovely Diana for lunch and shopping at town. Fruitless trip - how depressing. Anyway, it rained just as we were thinking about having coffee, and everything from then on turns really bad. Everywhere becomes congested. Every cafe we went to were jam packed and full house. We finally end up in Aji Tei (though we initially thought of COFFEE) for drink and light snack. The crowd was crazy everywhere. Definitely dampens the initial mood a little. But we had fun afterall, and that's all that matters.

I am jealous. Green with envy. Because Spice Girls are having their reunion tour EVERYWHERE but not here in Singapore. I know it's weird to like them but, whatever. I mean, they are the Spice Girls! My brothers and i used to jump around to their songs (especially Wannabe) just like how kids nowadays jump to those of Hi5. Ah, the memories. Hahaha. I'm CRAZY over the girls back then and they are my very first idols! My favourite is always Posh Spice, aka Victoria Beckhams. It's so sad to be listener of english music sometimes, even worse when i'm listening to country music, because the artists seldom come to this tiny little dot slightly above the equator. Maybe i should just force myself into being fan of, erm, Rainie? Well, you get my point. Those people promote in Singapore literally on an annual basis. Okay, i'm blabbering nonsense like no other. That's what you get when i'm stucked at home studying for the upcoming test. I become boring. Not that i am interesting on other days, but i become MORE boring than i already am. Maybe i should add some thrills to my life after the common test. First up in the list? I'm gonna pull a Britney! I'll shave off all my hair! Pfft. I'm becoming delusional.

Everything I do today was about one word – “late”. Slept in unknowingly till 8.30 this morning, and only managed to reach the 9.30 revision lecture at 9.45. You might think that it’s only a mere 15 minutes but the lecture already ended then. Pfft. So went for breakfast with the clique before going for class discussion, again. But more things are being settled today, which is a good thing. Well, actually it’s because the opposition parties weren’t around. Hahahaha. I thought this meeting would last around 2 hours, so I already made plans prior but who knew, I was dead wrong. But I left halfway through though, cause I was, again, late. Wanted to take a cab there but for five minutes, none stopped for me. Then the friend, being really nice, told me to take a bus and save my money instead. So the moment I walked back towards the bus stop, two person after me managed to hail a cab each, within 5 seconds! What the hell! Never mind. So in the end, I was late for, well, VERY long. Hahaha. I’m so sorry! By the way, I went out with the dear friend whom I’ve not gone out with for about a YEAR. That’s a really long gap since the last meet up. Yeap, it’s none other than the clucky Wei Qi! Well, at least we managed to meet up, it definitely beats not even being able to meet. So with 2 growling stomach, we went for a really late lunch at Waraku Japanese Restaurant at Marina Square. I’m not sure if it’s because I’m starving or otherwise, but the food taste damn good. Hahahaha. It’s so good to see the best friend after so long, and I had a fantastic time chatting with her. Well, the food may be good but the service is like, non-existent! Hahahaha. No one bother to take our order and no one is around to ask for the bill too! After lunch, we shopped around the mall and those nearby (citylink and raffles), caught Barney live in action (how cool is that. I wished I had gotten his autograph) before going to Azabu Sabo for dessert as well as to rest our aching feet. I had Matcha Milkshake and it’s SOOO good! Luckily WeiQi hates it, so I don’t need to share. Hahahahaha! Hers’ was pretty weird, cause underneath the ice cream and toppings, the rest are all plain jelly. Like, TONS of plain jelly. Hahahaha. Wanted to have dinner but were too bloated so decided to go home. Well, service there was good though. I think they refilled our green tea about, ten times? Hahaha. Really quick when it comes to that, like every 3 minutes interval, one waitress will pop out. It’s such a great day, though I was dead beat by the time I come home. Had a GREAT time laughing, crapping, reminiscing, chatting and bitching with the friend. Well worth each and every second and penny. Can’t ask for more, just that hopefully, there’ll be more such meet up!

My mind is currently occupied with projects, projects, more projects, and Britney Spears. "Piece of me" and "Radar" keeps playing in my head as and when, and i don't know why. Conflicts are inevitable in group work. Imgaine the amount and intensity of it when you're having CLASS discussion for ONE project. Tell me about it. It's like holocaust all over again, but in a class. Anyway, finally met Aunty Irene yesterday for lunch at the Han's cafe near Motion Smith (the best attachment office!) and passed her the gift which has been resting at my place for a while now. I'm guilty of it! Damn. I forgot i have quiz for Appreciating Artwork this Thursday, even though i was just reminded today. Alright, Renaissance , here i come! This entry is crap. Argh. I need more inspiration!

What's a better way to spend the weekend other than meeting up with friends, and more friends! On Friday evening, met up with my favourite people - Yas, Nazi and Meow! It has been quite a while since all 4 of us met together and i simply miss hanging out with all of them. It's just so comforting to see them. The making fun of each other, the gossiping, the laughter and the catching-up never fails to put a smile on me. It may be a short get-together over a cup of soya milk but it's enough to plaster a smile on my face for the entire day. Our schedules has made it pretty tough for everyone to get together, therefore any form of meet-up is very well treasured.

Yesterday, spent the morning and early afternoon at home slacking before meeting Meow after her Jap lesson for light dinner. After which, we set off to Dempsey Hill to meet up with HuiYing and YongSheng to have a couple of drinks at Harry's. Ya, i know i just went Dempsey with HuiYing last week but that place has too many place that appeal to us. The interior of the Harry's at Dempsey is so much nicer than the one at Boat Quay - better decoration (love the cushions and comfortable high chairs) and atmosphere - but the drinks and food they have are so limited. So after 2 drinks, we decided to head over to their other outlet at Holland V. Finally, they have the complete menu instead of just a paper print out. Ordered their shooters and left satisfied, and broke. It's always great to meet up with the friends. The night was filled with laughter and jokes and talks and wonderful company. Such activities never fail to lift the mood and make one delirious for hours and left me desiring for more of such meet-up!

Meow and I went for light supper after parting ways with HuiYing and YongSheng. Bought some snacks at the coffeeshop near Fajar Sec and went to a bus stop to chat for a while before it's home sweet home!
