Shit. So I actually DO miss blogging. Haven’t touched the net for two weeks and really it stings. Not the net I mean. I meant, it stings having not touched the net... Not it stings touching the net…. Ah you get me.
Who the hell said Mac was fantastic?? I’m all ready to kill it right here right now. Admittedly it has many good features and it most definitely IS pretty.. but damn, everything is so… inconvenient. Like how it took me AGES to download MSN messenger and how when I did finally dL it, it turns out to not even have the decency to arrange my contacts into the groupings I’ve allocated it before and so everyone is either Online or Offline. (Who is this? John? John what? John Chan you say. So are you the John Chan from St Marks, KCC, MSC, Zion, Grace Assemby, or Singapore? Oh. Oh.. you're my cousin?) And there ain’t no taskbar so I can’t tell when someone starts up a convo with me cuz their window pops up beHIND all the other windows and so I end up ignoring them - very unintentionally, I assure you.
So YES I got a Mac. Go on. Laugh. Let’s just say I’m so pissed off with myself for buying it that I will gladly laugh along with you.

NTU life wasn’t as bad as I had anticipated. The people are real nice and everyone’s been hell cool. Not to say I don’t miss Perth and my people back there. Cuz I do. And I think about y’all sometimes, guys.. If you even reading this. I haven’t hit the stage where I get depressed and start crying. But I’ll let you know when I do. The pass two weeks have been kinda busy and I haven’t had the time to reminisce. But you know I had been expecting worse.. like making friends with bunch of bimbotic bitches that backstab each other on an hourly basis. Wow look. Alliteration. But anyway, my group is SO cool and everyone is so damn awesome and life suddenly seems a lot brighter cuz they crack me up so much.

And the people were right. The food here is GOOD. Comfort food here is like, ANY food.

Been told too many times that I really should start joining hall events cuz that way I can be assured to get a NiCE room next year.
Incidentally I haven’t even MET anyone in my hall’s council. I really should be downstairs right now befriending them and hanging out with them all for the sake of my room next year.

But look WHERE I am right now? Sitting in front of this confounded Mac in my room blogging my ass away like I haven’t blogged for two weeks.

And I needa join clubs too. There’s a bridge club, ya hear?? I needa get my ass in it.
And there’s a film club too. I sit there, watch a movie, and I can critique it after. Yea my ass wanna get there too.
And there’s a frickin anime club. – it ain’t up to my ass no more.

Anyhooz. My memory is SO bad. It’s like,

Me: Hi I’m Sam. And you are?
Girl: I’m Shawna.
Me: Ok.. Hi!
[a few seconds later after looking away and back again]
Me: Oh shit. What was your name again?

And like..

Me: Clarence.. what was that girl’s name again? I remember telling myself that there was NO way I could forget her name but I can’t remember why and what her name is...
Clarence (my cousin): Umn Sam, her name is Sam too.
Me: Oh... Oh. So that’s why. o_o

Yea. That bad.

And it sucks cuz now when people walk by me, they look at me like they know me, and cuz I can’t remember them, I’m unintentionally dao-ing them!!! Cuz everyone starts to look the same after a while, and I get so damn mixed up with the names.. And I don’t dare say hi to people cuz it’sll probably start off with “Oh hi, what’s your name again?”

Anyway, I thought it was great how there were so many somewhat-internationals around me that aren’t really that international cuz they’re pretty much local. And like how the Malays look Chinese now and the Chinese look Malay. I found it funny cuz we were at this food stall in one of the canteens this one day and my very malay-looking Malay friend was ordering something from the Malay seller, who asked her if she was Chinese. And then the Malay seller started talking to a very chinese-looking Chinese friend in Malay. The hell. Reversed psychology doesn’t work that way.

Which reminds me…

I’ve got Japanese, Korean, Australian and American. But this guy I got introduced to asked me if I was INDONESIAN. O_O The HELL he get that?? He said it was the way I talked. What kinda Indonesia did he come from??? I’d hunt him down just to smack him in the face but like I was saying before, I don’t remember how he looks like and what's his name. >__<'''

Know I said I was gonna blog about the camp but I’ve forgotten all the blog material so I’ve decided to sum it all up in a sentence:

Was fun and I’m glad it happened.

Well wasn’t that nice and detailed… All in a nutshell. Ignore the fact that I don’t even like nuts that much. Ignore the fact that it could be cuz I do not endorse cannibalism. Ignore the fact that I just suggest I was a nut. Ignore the fact that if in the wrong context, this entire paragraph could be taken very VERY wrongly.

So now, I shall add in a few convos that cracked me up.. mainly from my younger cousin, Kim. She is SO hilarious and I think she doesn’t know it.

Understand that she is incapable of joking.

Uncle: Where you all wanna go?
Me and Kyna: Let’s go Orchard!
Uncle: Where in Orchard?
Kyna: Umn.. go Orchard Cine.
Uncle: Where’s Cine??
Kim: (like it was the most obvious thing) Orchard lor.

Uncle: *finds a $10 note on his seat*
Me: Wow Ah-Ku… Golden goose eh??
Kim: Aye but er jie (they call me that), you cannot slaughter the golden goose you know, because it cannot lay eggs anymore one...

She said it with SUCH a somber face that I just cracked up. Had to stare at her for a while initially cuz I thought that MAYBE she could be joking. Turned out she was shit serious. XD

Uncle: *telling me* Actually if you want to change currency, you must go when… [insert large amount of smart info here]… then you can get better returns.
Kim: Wah.. Daddy, I didn’t know you got brain one.

Ooh shit. Just remembered I should talk about my bday/farewell party. Argh shite. Oh well. Summed up in that stupid nutshell again:

Really, thanks you guys, whichever ones of you are reading this. It really rocked and I’m glad y’all found the time to come. Thank you for the presents. I shall ignore the fact that really the whole thing was pushed onto Joy – the poor girl – but thanks anyway. Thanks so much Mainyy my wife dearest for that horrid horrid video you made. You have so much talent and you put it all into humiliating me. For that I am truly touched. XP Hahahah.. nah it was great. Cloud made the whole thing pretty. XD
So what if I don't have pics. Go to Mainyy's blog or something. XD

GAh. Just remembered, I've gotten pass the 4000hit count and I really should post something up. Wait till I scan, my peepz.

And I think I may be switching to blogspot now. I dunno... MSN messenger for damn Mac refused to grant me a convenient button to click on to bring me straight to my MSN space. I gotta go into spaces.msn and sign on now. ERht. Wait till I get a webpage designer too. HAHA. I AM in a design course now, ya know.. Got TOO many skilled people around me. Huhuhu.......

All that above was done like last week but I'm posting all this today cuz the Mac won't let me post a nORmaL looking entry with or without HTML. So thi post is gonna be like, two entries in one. Meaning I can only post every weekend.

Shit.

The uni won't let limewire work!!! And I can't find any mac-compatible bitcomets.. ignoring the fact that I didn't actually put any effort into looking but hey, I got a firewall to blame. I am SO depressed cuz I have NO music and NO anime dammit. Umn.. I mean, yea.. cuz I miss the family and friends back in Perth and.. stuff... *ahem* Yea.

Ok I just heard Kyna my cousin saying on the phone: "When I get my child, I wanna give it eye-liner tattoo. Well it's MY child and I can do whatever I want with it."

O_O Right.

But you know you know.. Kyna told me that her friend saw the both of us today and so he didn't wanna say hi to her cuz I'm there T__T;; but guess what he said to her on the phone??

Friend: Who was that person with you?
Kyna: Oh my cousin. Why?
Friend: She looks high class..

TAKE THAT YA'LL. I AM HIGH CLASS!! OMg i told her to inform him of how COOL he is. BUAHAHAHzzz... high class.. shit that made my day.

-

Had sushi yesterday with four of the guys from my group. Am I female pimp or WHAT? MUAHAHAhaha...

Speaking of my group, the girls in my class are all so damn pretty and there are all these cute cute OMG CUTE ones too and I feel so gross and fat next to them. Am I JEALOUS self-proclaimed female pimp or WHaT? SobSobSob...

And know what happened today? Was out shopping with my cousin and was on the bus when this lady who looked about 35 yrs, long hair, straight fringe, glasses, purple shirt (the hell do I remember all this shit?) came up and stood next to me and said in this sugary very-badly-imitated-english-accent voice, "Oh why don't you take a seat?"

Me: Oh no it's alright.
Her: Really, go on and sit.
Me: No, really. You go ahead.
Her: Oh go ahead, you know you want to. Go sit.
Me: Stop it already you pretentious little freak and go sit in your stool and think about it  Really, I don't need it..

And then she just flung her hair and left to sit in some other chair like she hadn't even been talking to me. EH?? I had thought initially she was just being nice, but by her third line I could actully hear what I thought was mockery and what my cousin thought was retardation in her voice, so I got very annoyed AFTER she left. I suspect it could very well be the latter since we say he walking off with this pink barbie school bag like a kindergarten student.

And this all happened in a crowded bus mind you, and NO one looked the least bit stunned so maybe this happens in Sg everyday, I don't know.

ARGHH guys if you could just see her damn face and hear how she said it, I am SO affected by her strangeness. I can't even remember how her face looks like now except she was in a purple shirt.. but her annoyingness is so... clingy. ARgH.

What a bad way to end the blog off. Gotta end on a happy note..

I bought new shoes..!?
