listening to ryan cabrera - true

its been a while since i blogged.. been spending my holiday time pretty wisely.. at least i got to do the things that ive been wanting to do for ages..

sunday morning and afternoon were spent with the tkd gang.. well.. part of the gang.. since the majority werent there.. we walked around tiong aimlessly before we went to aaron's house.. mahjong session..

left in the evening to meet chiu yen for the class bbq.. the bbq was ok.. but i still have to say that my kind of lameness dont fit with my most of my classmates.. i would be dead if chiu yen werent there to talk to me..

guess im better suited to hanging around with buddies or the tkd gang.. feel more at ease..

monday was spent hanging out with my best bud (aka gwen).. it was raining heavily on our way to the gym.. gwen was soaking wet when we reached the sports complex (so sorry girl..)..

set the threadmill to 10km/hr as usual on a 1.0 incline.. felt so good to sweat it all out in an air conditioned room with good music playing in the background..

we went to swensens after the workout.. piling back the pounds haha.. but nevertheless.. cant resist my favourite ice cream flavour at swensens.. frosted choco malt.. its damn nice.. highly recommended by me.. the ultimate glutton.. =)

brought my grandpa out for lunch today.. treated him to delifrance since hes been wanting to try.. couldnt bear to let him pay for it cause its pretty ex..

i was thinking that he may not be used to the food.. so i was pleasantly surprised when he finished everything.. even said it was nice.. =)

i went swimming alone at clementi today.. i just plonked myself in the water for 2 solid hours under the scorching sun.. guess im nuts.. i look like charcoal now..

everyone has been complaining that the holidays are really boring.. but im enjoying myself so far.. ive finished reading outbreak..

im now halfway through another robin cook's book (no its not a cook book).. title of the book is toxin.. its about a kid who died after eating a burger with beef patty that was infected with ecoli.. the name of the strain is 0157:H7..

the strain really exists.. its freaky..

im such a sucker for medical thrillers..

its a good book anyway.. i think ill be able to finish it one of these days.. den ill be off looking for more books..

im planning to buy the book tales of saffy and amanda.. its written by an 8days columnist.. i enjoy reading his experience of living under the same roof as 2 woman in the magazine regularly.. its pretty hilarious..

saw the book the other day at mph.. its a very thin book.. and it costs $16 plus plus.. buying it is the only way of reading it because i dont think the NLB will stock up on such a book..

i dont think my friends read such things either..

im aiming to finish 5 novels this holidays.. im on my way to finishing the third book.. i think 5 by the end of the holidays is achievable..

i gave my very precious discman to my mum.. and she bought me an mp3 player in return.. ive decided to give her my discman and buy an mp3 player initially but she said she will pay for the mp3..

i gave the discman to my mum cause she always borrow it from me.. and the poor discman is always running out of batt.. on average if i use the discman on my own.. i only have to charge it once every two weeks..

since mum started borrowing it from me.. ive got to charge it so often it feels heartwrenching to see it running out of batt all the time.. and the main pt is.. the batteries never fail to die on me when i need them most..

like the time when one fucking noisy baby was bawling its fucking huge lungs out on the fucking crowded train.. and i had no music to cover it up.. i vomited once i reach home after all the trauma.. literally.. i wasnt feeling well that day to begin with..

im starting to feel tired of charging my poor and precious discman ever so often.. and i cant possibly say no to my mum when she wants to borrow it.. so im left with no choice but to give it to her..

i cant possibly ask her to buy one on her own..

not a bad deal.. but its sad to hand my discman to mum.. i love my discman to bits and its of sentimental value to me.. im going to save up and buy it back from my mum.. i know she will give it back to me if i tell her about it.. but its not fair to her..

ill gladly trade my mp3 player back for my precious discman.. if only my mum knows how to operate an mp3 player..

i want my discman back!!!

argh..

why did i ever come out with the stupid idea of giving it to my mum..

arGH..

ARGH...

i want my precious discman back!!!
