"Eunice, you've grown taller." Swee Wei told me super seriously. I looked at Swee, then at Yinghui. I can see the top of her head! (wahaha) Uh.. what should I say? Being tall is not a bad thing, it's just, I DUN WANNA GROW ANYMORE!! Why? Hmm. Good question. Tall means air is fresher means healthier right? NO. Not after I saw a NY junior getting down the bus. I was behind him. And when he walk on the steps to alight, he has to bend his head down to avoid giving himself an ugly bruise on his forehead. So tall means air fresher and healthier but die earlier from head injuries. And when you're tall, you're more liable to be asked to help take things from the higher shelves in the supermarket. And if you're a kid that's worst cuz you're always asked to help shelve books in the higher shelves. When someone takes it down you're supposed to shelve it back. (speaking from personal experience) *sob*

2 hours to my maths paper 2 and i'm acting like my exams are over!! wahaha. truth is, my exams are hardly over. it's only just began... fine fine. no link. dun blog le. i go mug. WAHAHAHA!!

Some funny jokes I came across on http://www.jokesgalore.com

Joke #1 Men vs. Women

A man will pay $2 for an item that costs $1 if he wants it. A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't want because it's on sale.

A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband. A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.

A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful woman is one who can find that man.

To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little. To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and don't expect to understand her at all.

Married men live longer than single men, but married men are alot more willing to die.

Any married man can forget his past mistakes: there's no reason for two people to keep track of the same things.

A woman marries a man expecting him to change, and he doesn't. A man marries a woman expecting her not to change, and she does.

A woman has the last word in any argument. Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

Joke #2

A protestant moved into a completely Catholic community. Being good Catholics they welcomed him into their community. But, also because they were good Catholics they did not eat red meaton Fridays. So, when their neighbor began barbequeing somejuicy steak on Friday night, they began to squirm.

They were so annoyed that they went to talk to him about it. After much talk they conviced him to become Catholic. The nextSunday he went to the priest and the priest sprinkled holy water on him and said: You were born Protestant. You were raised Protestant. But now you are Catholic!

And so, the next Friday, as the neighbors sat down to eat their fish, they were disturbed by the smell of roast beef coming from the neighboring house. They went over to talk to the new Catholic because he knew he was not supposed to eat beef on Fridays. When they saw him, he was sprinkling ketchup on the beef saying: You were born a cow. You were raised a cow. But now you are fish!

Happy Birthday Cheeki!
(a.k.a dumb cow)

As was the case last year, cheeki's birthday celebrations was the funnest birthday celebration of all Hardcorers. [even better than mine] =( Last year, we ton over at sentosa, with ck chasing peahen. this year, we took the celebrations to the beach too! at east coast!! it was a pity tt shooting, yinghui and mag can't join us. I hope Mag's well by now. And yinghui... *sigh*. i wonder how she manages the miracle ck did last year: getting maths file thrown out. which is so -_-"

anyway, today's celebration was fun! we started out by waiting 45 mins for the late ppl (nana, labit n todds) at eunos mrt. nice one! next, we had a half an hour walk to the booth where they rented kayaks. apparently nana says it's only "5 mins more!" every 5 mins. which adds up to a half an hour walk. then we went kayaking!! honestly, i wasn't looking forward to it because:

1) bad experience during OBS
2) my partner was cheeki

which seriously, is a major factor cintribuiting to why i dun wanna go kayaking. but well, birthday boy think he rulez, so let him b ba. once a year treat him abit more nicely. in the end, it was ck doing most of the paddling and mi juz controlling direction behind. and it ended up quite fun! we made a raft in the middle of the sea. abit lame but fun!! and then i splash ck with sea water. juz to make his clothes wet (who call him nv being extra pants?!?!) and mess up his hair! wahahaha... we ended up with a kayak full of water, since he tried to splash mi back. mi, nana and todds splashed each other too! then we played in the water, making the guys carry the kayaks back. so nice of them! and so nice of vinny to help mi carry my bag! not bad, since i get my tan! =)

then toddler had a bright idea. everyone got into the water and surrounded cheeki. AND WE SANG BIRTHDAY SONG!! which was fun, cuz we all splashed him after tt! (although we all kena cuz anyhow splash) bleh. saltwater is so NOT nice. especially when it gets into ur eyes. we ended up all wet and sandy. getting dry was quite the difficult part, especially when there's nt a shower near the booth. then we walked half an hour all the way back to where we came from to 7-11 for the 2 not-so-bright ppl who nv bring towels to buy towels. then we went to bathe. the shower was well, quite open, so we bathe in soap n shampoo in full clothes and tried to wash off as much sand as possible b4 drying n changing clothes in toilet. it was 3 by the time we started eating lunch at mac.

then we went cycling!! cuz the carnival very far, like, at the kayaking booth there. so we cycled there. and dave learnt to bike! not without abit of struggle, but well, tt's learning. when we reached the carnival, it was world blood doners day carnival! -_- Red cross. and we saw our juniors! Melissa, kaiying and cheng hong! apparently they recognised cui! keke.. since the carnival was so full of ppl (and mud) so we cycled ahead... to the jetty! Which is really cool (literally)! cuz got wind.. then very comfy. and we sat at the jetty to tok cock. which is quite fun, hardcore style fun. we talk about lame things like how dolphins will jump outta water and say hi! haha...

then we walked to parkway parade to haf dinner. and when we sit downn order it was already 8pm. we had dinner at swensens! cuz ck treating ice cream! we had a giant earthquake and topless 5! shiok sia! and ck bought "devil beside me"!!! ck so rox!! wahaha... after mid yr can pia le!! and swee wei had quite er xin way of eating ice cream.. -_-"

it was a fun day filled with sun, sea, beach and going home looking red like a lobster. but well, it was good experience. maybe we should haf HC chalet!! then we can haf a day out like tt again!!

Awww... I didn't know so many people missed me when i was away today! i got 8 sms, and 3 of them from.... *ahem* yinghui! *shy* yinghui misses mi so much! i bet she always resist the tempetation to msg me every now and then :P

right right, back to wad i'm supposed to blog about: my shopping trip to batam. Well, basically, I would say that shopping in JB (Or S'pore) would be nicer. Well, at least clothes wise, there would be more clothes to buy. their clothes are like made for dwarfs la... i came to 2 conclusions:

1) The ancestors of Batam residents used to work in Willy Wonka's choc factory
OR
2) Their ancestors are actually Hagrid's relatives, which explains why larger sizes are not available since they're all snapped up. (the smaller sizes will be snapped up too, literally, when they're worn)

Either way, it resulted in me and my cousin not getting the clothes we want. Thankfully, I got 2 t shirts!! And they're not white, and certainly NOT 3 for $10! (of 30 for $10, or 300 for $10) *glares at ck and cui* And the shirts! the brand is 'fish bone'. ok, it's not. i call it fish bone, since the label shows a fish bone. and they are hot pink and lime green! hehe. tt sounds so un-me like to buy such A.A colours. Well, i can always try something out for a change. and the clothes, it's prolly the type toddler will go "ooo" and "ahhh" at (since our taste quite similar)

Not surprisingly, I find Batam shopping centers quite like the ones in JB. And they all haf 1 common point which i hate: Indoor smoking is not banned. It'a bad enough to smell the disgusting, revolting cigrette smoke in public places (like the ferry terminal) but smelling them inside shopping centers, and finding yourself inhaling the yucky smoke is absolutely sick. Every i go, there seem to be the smell lingering around. (Or maybe it's just my dad embracing the culture there, if u can even call it a culture)

ooo and did i mention? i hardly saw a traffic light there!! i rembember (in the back of my excellent memory) that a tour guide once told me there are only 36 traffic lights in the whole Batam, despite being slightly bigger than S'pore! And the driving style... ai, reminds me of LiJiang. Need i explain more?

(sidetrack: a lorry got into accident when i'm typing this! it's now at the side of the road, half turned over. the ambulance and traffic police are here already! so efficient! man, tt's y my mum always say "if can afford, better to stay in s'pore" so true. )

kk, side track over.

*yawn* tired le. blog again tml or smth ba. nite!~

Some general and sarcastic observations from a bored self-proclaimed love guru a.k.a Faith

How to tell if a guy likes you:

1) He smses you almost every day on the most stupid things ever, like, "Hey you looked sad today. You okay?" or "What are you doing now?"

2) He clicks on you on MSN every single time you come online.

3) He tells you that you are "cute", "really cute", "sweet", "special", "attractive", etc. Guys use very predictable words so if you see them used repeatedly, you can see the green light shining like crazy.

4) He calls you every night. You tell me. Either he has lost all the handphone numbers of every single one of his best friends/good friends or has an urgent project to discuss with you or there is no excuse for this to happen at all.

5) He frequently teases you and praises you simultaneously, like, "Your eyes so big" or "Why you so skinny must eat more"...

6) He asks you out and pays for everything. Like hello? Was he ever that generous and friendly with all the other girls on a one-to-one basis? If yes, then he has serious problems or he's bloody rich. Take a hint will ya.

7) He think of all sorts of silly excuses to get you to go out with him, like "Wanna go my church with me (because all the other churches have burned down and you don't know how to find a suitable church to go to if you really need and want to go)?" or "I've got an extra ticket (because I accidentally bought it for you and you alone oopsie daisies)". He seems to be free every time.

8) He wants you to know who he is close to, be it friends or family, and he wants to know who you are close to as well (jealous possessive instinct of huba huba primitive hunter). If you don't like him it's gonna sound like this to your poor ears, "And you know X? yea I'm really close to X... I met X at blah blah and we just clicked and blahblahblah you should meet him his my really good friend we just puke puke puke vomit..."

How to tell if a guy does not like you:
(All these are said under the consideration that the guy in question is not trying to play it cool and keep you waiting. But really, do girls say the first sentence out of paranoia and idiotic hopes? Because if he really is keeping the girl he likes waiting and thinking that it is a clever thing to do, he should just keep waiting for the rest of his life and that girl should definitely move on. Nobody likes mind games and if you truly like someone, you just don't waste more time on playing dumb games.)

1) He takes a long time to reply to your smses. When he does reply, they are short and to the point, like, "Yes I will be coming."

2) He does not call you, does not sms you, does not even click on you on MSN. (No excuses here, unless he doesn't even use MSN. Guys simply just cannot control their instinct to appeal to you. That's why male peacocks have brighter and bigger feathers isn't it. If he likes you, he will want you to know that he exists and he will take every opportunity given to talk to you in the hopes that the both of you can get to know each other better. If he doesn't even talk to you online, he's just not into you at all.)

3) He does not make the first move to talk to you in person. (Guys will always make the first move if they like you. They find it challenging. It scares the shit out of them but they love it. And trust me, even if they're "just really shy", if they seriously like you they will throw their life on the line. They will somehow find that little ounce of courage they have inside to speak up.) Questions like "What homework do we have?" so does not count. In fact if he only talks to you when you ask him questions, then it's a big enough wake-up call lady.

Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

You better slow down
Don't dance so fast
Time is short
The music won't last

Do you run through each day on the fly?
When you ask How are you?
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head

You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last

Ever told your child
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say,"Hi"

You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day
It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.

3:25 PM

I ran into a stranger as he passed by,"Oh excuse me please" was my reply.
He said, "Please excuse me too; I wasn't watching for you."
We were very polite, this stranger and I.
We went on our way and we said goodbye.

But at home a different story is told,
How we treat our loved ones, young and old.
Later that day, cooking the evening meal,
My son stood beside me very still.
When I turned, I nearly knocked him down.

"Move out of the way," I said with a frown.
He walked away, his little heart broken.
I didn't realize how harshly I'd spoken.

While I lay awake in bed,God's still small voice came to me and said,
"While dealing with a stranger,common courtesy you use, but the family you love, you seem to abuse.
Go and look on the kitchen floor, You'll find some flowers there by the door.
Those are the flowers he brought for you.
He picked them himself: pink, yellow and blue.
He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise,
you never saw the tears that filled his little eyes."

By this time, I felt very small, And now my tears began to fall.
I quietly went and knelt by his bed;
"Wake up, little one, wake up," I said.
"Are these the flowers you picked for me?"
He smiled, "I found 'em, out by the tree.
I picked 'em because they're pretty like you.I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue."
I said, "Son, I'm very sorry for the way I acted today; I shouldn't have yelled at you that way."
He said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay. I love you anyway."
I said, "Son, I love you too, and I do like the flowers, especially the blue."

Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days.. But the family we left behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives?

And come to think of it, we pour ourselves moreinto work than into our own family, an unwise investment indeed,don't you think? So what is behind the story?

Do you know what the word FAMILY means?
FAMILY =
(F)ATHER
(A)ND
(M)OTHER
(I)
(L)OVE
(Y)OU
