ah alas. i see my blog is practically dead. haha!!!
anyways, the answer is quite obvious actually. if you look at the picture that's posted previously, you'll notice i'm holding its erm. sensitive part. HAHA!!!
so so..
yesterday, saturday, 17th october, was an absolutely crazy day.
my brother's birthday!
preparations began a week ago when i decided to surprise him by asking his friends over to our house for a mini celebration. but his friends had other things planned and they decided to surprise him at home before heading out for lunch.
somehow, shawn saw that coming but it still was a mini surprise that didnt exactly happen the way i envisioned it.
after his lunch, i brought him out shopping for a pair of shoes and chinos.
managed to find the loafers from pedro and it happened to be the display pair. last piece. gah! we decided not to get it on the spot and went to citylink to check out the other pedro store. turns out, it's really the last piece at ion. so i told him i'll get it tomorrow (sunday) for him. we went to mandarin oriental where i planned the second surprise. i contacted his buddy, matthew, and asked him to bring shawn for dinner and i'll pay. so matthew choose the place and kept insisting that he'd pay for dinner and get shawn a present. so i caved in and let him.
the cool thing is, shawn didnt see this coming at all. nope. not the singlest tiniest bit!
-smirks-
i told him that i made a reservation under my dad's credit card number and if we cancelled the reservation, we'd have to pay a cancellation fee of $50. shawn totally fell for it!
so when we reached the entrance of mandarin, matthew walked up and said "happy birthday!". my brother thought it was purely coincidental and he stood there talking for less than 5 seconds before i said, "shawn, do you get it? do you get it?"
he looked at me for a split second and went, "OOH! i get it i get it."
I WAS SO HAPPY because my brother was HAPPY!!!
(:
so i left them there, with shawn shaking his finger at me.
(:
after which, i decided to go back to ion and get the shoe. which is the 3rd surprise. but it isnt much of a surprise already isnt it? oh wells. haha!!!
after getting the shoe, went straight down to kallang leisure park to celebrate jiunyuen's 21st. met karen, my secondary school classmate and we chatted a little.. she's changed so much since then! super girly now, probably more girly than i am. haha!!!
took a couple of pictures then sat awhile more. made fun of shiwei and junyi and talked a whole lot of nonsense about a certain someone and then i had to head home.
i know it doesnt seem like much but it really is a whole lot!!! i was dead tired by the time i came home that i slept almost immediately.
(:
can something nice and interesting happen to me so i can have things to blog about?
you know, i was chatting with minn online sometime ago and we were talking about guys.
and she said something that i thought about a long time ago. i cant recall exactly what she said though. darn.
you know, somehow, i wonder if i'll just end up alone. i think, i'd rather die young than grow old alone.
eee.. the future.
anyways!!! a song i've been really into!!!
laura jansensingle girlsi think you'd like my new hair
i cut it when you weren't there
that pieces of us eveywhere
were falling down
my bed is now a girl's bed
pink flowers under my head
and pillows on your side instead
of you
'cause that's what single girls so
dont think about you
i'm reading books on meditation
praying for my heart's salvation
i've got the motivation
to be a free girl now
i've gone drinking with the guy down the hall
put up a new colour on my bare walls
i'm so damn busy
after all
'cause that's what single girls do
dont think about you
i keep trying
i keep trying
to make my way back to the light where i belong
but God keeps lying
God keeps lying
saying this is for the best and nothing here is wrong
but i'm still thinking bout
i'm still thinking bout
i'm still thinking about you
still think about you
i think you'd like my new hair
i cut it like i didnt care
that pieces of me everywhere
were falling down
one more glass of wine
before i turn off the lights
this time
this time i'll be fine
i'll be fine
i'll be fine
