ahh.. haha.. currently at my cousins' place.. haha.. yeaps, i stayed over after tutoring.. so after tutoring, we went over to the nasi lemak stall at kovan for supper.. which was nearing 0000 in the morning.. haha!!! amazing isnt it.. supper at such a time.. and i didnt expect the place to still be so crowded even at such a time.. seriously, it was crowded.. so we sat down, ordered a couple of things then started eating and i started trying to converse in cantonese with my uncle and aunt.. it was so hilarious i tell you.. the entire time, the both of them were laughing and correctly my cantonese.. haha.. what fun..
ooh! and i saw how they killed the frogs to make frog porridge!!! ohman, i was so shocked!!! they actually grab the poor little guy by the hindlegs and then whack the head of the dear froggie at the corner of the metal basin.. i was rather sick after seeing that.. if i were a news reporter for the frogs, the headlines would probably be something like
"frog dies in collision with metal basin"
kind of thing.. my goodness me.. and they just do the killing and chopping of the frog in front of the other frogs.. see, they place the carton full of frogs just beside the chopping board.. and the chopping board, is well, naturally used for chopping the things up.. i can actually imgine how the other frogs would have felt seeing their friends get killed and chopped one after another.. ohman.. then my aunt did an interesting action in which she was the other frogs inside the carton.
-points and says "ahhh!!!"-
haha.. the analogy of that entire scenerio should be something like watching a person die right in front of you.. ohman..
-shivers-
so anyways, after that, before we were about to go off, there was this huge hairy dog that looked so much like a bear.. i mean SERIOUSLY looked like a bear.. black beady eyes with the black nose and brown hair/fur.. scared the crap out of me.. haha!!!


okay, let's now backtrack to the events of the day, starting from morning.. haha!!!
alrights.. morning.. woke up late so daddy fetched me to work.. had breakfast with him and then went to start work. the entire day was interesting because billy was trying to make even more conversations with me by firstly asking me to buy lunch for michael, the indian guy. and the funny thing? he didnt ask me once.. he asked me twice.. is he plain forgetful? weirdo.. then the second time he asked, he asked for my name.. then michael started calling me mrs mak..
-.-
mdm mak is the name of my boss, or the one in charge of me.. haha.. so michael told everyone to call me mrs mak..
man! do i have a ring on my wedding finger? no! heck, i dont even have a single ring on my fingers.. haha!!! how amusing. maybe i shall tell him my name on monday or when the opportunity rises..
so mr boots was as usual the cool older guy with the boots.. and the funny thing is this.. he makes me feel like a daughter around him.. i mean in your workplace, there are the many kinds of people.. like the lady who's like the elder sister you wished you had, the guy who's like the elder brother you wished you had and the mother and the father of the workplace and stuff.. and yes, mr boots is like the father at work for me.. so far, he has defended me twice? the married issue and this time round, when billy asked me what i was doing in ngee ann and i told him IT, he said something like
"girl doing IT ah?"
in a really weird way.. not saying that he said it in a condescending way but more of like
"are you serious? i thought only guys do that" in a nicer way..
so mr boots stepped in and said
"why girls cannot do IT?"
isnt he like a fatherly figure? you cant disagree with me right?
(:
he's so cool.. haha!!!
then the funny malay guy.. haha!!! he treated me like the countergirl at macdonalds and went to the broken down micrcophone at the frontdesk and 'ordered' a big mac set meal.. haha!!! the funny thing? he didnt know what the name was for ordering a full set.. haha!!! he went
"you know? that thing?"
then he did this circular hand motion in front of him.. haha!!! so i said
"set meal?"
and he went
"ya ya!!! big mac set meal"
haha!!! such a funny guy.. then when i was leaving, he went
"aye aye!!! who said you can go? i still got some things for you to do!"
then when i laughed, he said
"okay! you make for me the big mac set meal then you can go."
haha.. hilarious.. haha!!!
ooh! before that, in the office, mdm mak was talking on the phone saying something about not being able to cover the mistake or something for someone and that malay guy said
"take curtain and cover can already lor. take curtain and cover and cover what"
in a joking manner and i giggled a wee bit and he said
"why you laugh ah girl? why you laugh?"
haha.. ohman.. this workplace is full of interesting people.. haha!!!
(:


ooh.. and i had a dream last night.. of the christopher guy my cousin wanted me to meet.. remember? not that i've seen him before but in my dream, he was pretty good looking.. not as tall, dark and handsome as i wished he would be, but pretty acceptable.. and in my dream, he came out as a nice guy but he had to use crutches for some reason which i dont know.. was it a leg problem? cant remember.. then when he came in front of me, he held out this long wallet, opened it and behind the transparent plastic sheet, was a drawing that he drew of the both of us..
-melts-
i think i'm in love with a character my mind made up..
-smiles dreamily-
haha.. imagine that.. dreaming of someone whom i have never met, never known, and i can quite remember how he looks like.. black slightly curly hair, about half a head taller than i am with a funny shirt and jeans..
(:
such an interesting dream.. the images were pretty vivid too.. it's not those blurish we sometimes get.. it was clear.. pretty clear for a dream.. and did i mention that i actually cried in my dream when he showed me that long wallet with the drawing? i still remember the drawing with lovely hearts and the both of us smiling away at each other..
-double melt-
haha.. trust me, i am amused at myself too.. haha.. i hope i meet someone that nice and may that single love bring us to unknown heights..
(:
get married in church, have a pretty wedding with dancing, settle in a nice cosy home, have a kid or two, with many family gatherings with my parents and maybe his.. ohman.. i feel so lonely now.. haha.. hey, a girl can dream cant she?
(:

so anyways, just got back home.. haha.. previously, typed at my aunt's place then started tutoring, went swimming, dinner and then here i am, back home.. haha.. going church tomorrow!!! my arms are aching.. like mad i should add.. havent swam in 3months.. imagine that.. haha!!!
ooh!!! before i go.. tell you about my recent experience with God..
on wednesday, i asked my boss if i could leave earlier because i was going to tutor my cousins and then i skip lunch because the 1 hour could then be compensated.. and she said i shouldnt skip my lunch.. so i told my aunt that i couldnt leave earlier.. and i was pretty sad the entire day.. then, at 1645 or so, the computer i was on hanged.. haha!!! so i sat in front of the computer, doing nothing, doodling on the waste paper and nothing else.. then guess what happened.. my boss told me to go off since i wasnt able to do anything at all.. haha!!! and so i left at 1700.. how amazing is that? totally cool isnt it? something like that hasnt happened in quite some time..
(:
doesnt such things amaze you?
alrights.. i got to go now.. pretty drained out from swimming only 8 laps.. VERY drained out actually.. my arms are actually hurting already.. phew! i'm so tired.. haha.. ooh! met my swimming instructor.. i dont think he remembers me though.. he can remember the twins but not me.. haha!!! amusing.. uncle ben.. yeah.. he looks like he gained a few kilos, and definitely as dark, if not darker.. haha!!!
alrights.. loves!
