If I could live my days like this forever

I've been spending the past few days in blissful ignorance of the fact that exams are in about a week's time. At the moment I am camping in my cousin's room, where the internet connection, for the first time in my life, is at maximum strength. That's because the internet ding dong is connected directly to his lousy desktop and well, it just occurred to me that I was on a laptop. Feels so nice not to have to worry about disconnecting every 5 seconds. It's really tiring.

Just spent the past half hour chatting with Clarinda she's going off to Germany in 2 weeks or so for University I think I'll miss her quite a lot. :(:(:(

Clar was trying to wake Zhu up cos they're going somewhere.
Me: "Zhu kind of reminds me of me when I'm trying to wake up."
Clar: "How do you wake up?"
Me: "I don't."


Alright, over the course of the weekend I've been far from studying except maybe today. I think I'm taking it too easy apparently there's not enough time anyone who sees this should remind me I have no bloody time and would I please get off the computer to read Hedda Gabler or count chromosomes?

I swear my mom does not care that I have exams, it feels kinda nice actually haha. Today while halfway through studying my mom decided she wanted to cook for the first time in ten gazillion years and so we followed some random youtube videos to try to cook Egg Benedict. The stuff we eat on Sundays at the Botanical Gardens.

poached eggs are too hard to make we cheated. we tried and failed. I have pictures but they are blurry (and embarrassing).

the sister does not give a shit.
"i will drink my chrysanthemum tea"

extremely pleased with our success!

tadahhhhh!

It was very fun and I felt like a TV show. and I also realised I'm quite shitty at cooking unless following instructions (in which case I am quite fantastic). I've been feeling like this for awhile.

On saturday I didn't know what I felt like doing at all, and I suspect studying didn't even cross my brain. but as a result I told my mom I wanted ice cream from Island Creamery, all the way in Serene Centre round Adam Road, which is considerably far-away from my home. We did it.


Reverse-O and Cookies & Cream



very pleased with this machine from the past. it's one of those mini ferris wheels for kids. I am slightly oversized now.

I think going to a non-routine place on a weekend set my mom and I on tourist mode, with my grandma tagging along. So my mom wanted to show me her old kampong place, which we never did get to, because our tourist instincts brought us to Dempsey Road, where I have never been.




instructions were that if anyone asked, we were tourists from Malaysia. ;)

ah ma saw fruits



In fact, this tourist mode is not wearing off. Sunday we had a family BBQ, pictures of which I am too tired to post up at this point in night but they are very splendid, and I will put them up very soon.

and tomorrow I will continue behaving like a tourist in my own country when I go to the airport to study with nicole. haven't seen her in too long I miss her a lot I'm going to bend down and hug her when we meet.
