A crazily optimistic girl~

Feb 27 2006, Monday

My dad just came back from India yesterday early in the morning. And he bought scarves. LOTS of them. Mostly because my aunt wanted them. They're all cashmere and in rainbow colours. And he bought a leather bag for my mum. LEATHER! Poor cows... Beef is the only meat I don't eat because my mum says as we pray to Guan Yin, we can't eat it. Just as well. I remember when they showed us a video on how cows were slaughtered and it was horrible(I shan't go into the details. My sis and I both have watches-cum-bracelets. When we saw them we were quite curious. Mine had purple and gold and my sister's was blue and silver. We were wondering, 'How does he know our favourite colours?' and started interrogating him. We even said this, "Are these the only colours sold there?" My mum thiught we were hilarious. Enough said.

I just realised I like moody characters. For example, Eeyore from Winne the Pooh and Raven from Teen Titans. They seldom smile but when they do, they look cute! haha...well, they're really devoted to their friends though, and my horoscope Scorpio says the same thing about me. I wonder if it has to do with something...

I read XiaoQian's blog and she was complaining about being kicked out for combined band for their concert, Sereneta Four this year. (Should I go and see them in their penguin suits? Hmm...Cher Lin said that crack about the penguin suits by the way) All I have to tell her is that I've got worse. When I was in Sec.1, we had our 10th choir anniversary concert and I couldn't sing Grease and the finale. Grease! It's one of my favourite songs. Then, in the next year, I didn't get in SYF. Then, as I dropped from Soprano 2 to Alto 1, I vowed to work hard to participate in the end-of-year Prague competition. We stayed back long hours and did many auditions, in the holidays, we had a 3 time a week practice. I even had to go back on my birthday! Unfortunately, about a week or two before the competition, I had appendicitis and had to be sent to hospital. I stayed there for a week or so and missed the competiton totally. I was really upset and cried on the night they left although I sent them an SMS, saying good luck and all. I had a operation, had to be put on an IV, couldn't eat for days and Chui Wen said I looked weak. The bed hurt my back and there was even a tube coming out of my ....(I don't know what to say) with purple pus and when they took it out, it damned hurt. A lot of people visited me, brought presents. Some said it was better that I fell sick now and not when I was in Prague. I still really regret it. Actually, the food in hospital was not bad and I could watch TV the whole day.:) When I got back home, cable TV was inctalled and I watched cartoons everyday.(Teen Titans three times a day) My sister was off to sports camp so she wasn't disturbing me. I guess this has its advantages and disadvantages. Er-jie, be glad you didn't have it this way.

Haha...speaking of that...Do you notice something? Chui Wen, Xiao Qian, Wei Fang, Liting, Cher Lin, Ming Har(me) and Puay Suan. Arranged in age. I'm the second smallest! They are seven of us and we cam up this weird crack about 7 flowers. So, Cw is my da-jie, Xq, is my er-jie and so on. I can only call Puay Suan qi-mei....god, that girl is the youngest, smartest, tallest...and not forgetting most modest. She always says that she is not clever, it's just good luck, and that she is very stupid. Somtimtes it's intolerable. She's in 3a! The rest of us are in 3b and Cher lin's in 3d. Some people are just like that. I don't think I 'll be used to it if she stops saying that. I 'll probably be very suspicious and say, "Who are you and what have you done with the real Puay Suan?" Oh well, that's plain ol' me.
