Thursday, August 23

Okay, first I must blog about what happened on Munyee’s birthday. Things didn’t at all turn out anywhere near I expected and I realized that I miss them a lot. In fact, I can still remember almost every single detail vividly, perhaps showing how much I value those times I shared with them, indulging in their company, laughing and cam-whoring with them.

I was the first to turn up as I recall, although zhenling(zhenlong bao) was only a minute or two after me. At first we really had nothing to do and all we did were to sit around and chat a bit and play this game thingy which munyee’s bro took over in a while’s time. Later on we met xin hui down at the bus stop and she was with her bf! No doubt we must have looked ridiculous when we practically ran to meet them both. I felt like I was a mad woman, with my hair flying all over my face and those loud flip flop sounds I made when I ran. There was a moment of awkward silence before xh decided to intro us all to him. It must have surprised her to see us all down cos I believe she actually meant for munyee to go down alone.

After the intro xh told us to go up ourselves, and we did. Well, rather reluctantly, but we eventually did go up after hiding at the staircase landing for some time to jump out and scare her. Except that our plan failed of course. She didn’t even go by there at all! So our efforts went down the drain. Xh came up again after what seemed like a long long while. We watched a bit of Simpsons before the “witching hour” came. Two cakes were carried out and placed on the dining table. Meanwhile, I was amusing myself by playing with the dried ice. Just at the right moment, jiehui turned up. Record time she took to bath, she commented. We sang the birthday song and gave her the presents.

I know that I shouldn’t feel that way but I can’t help it. At that point I was really rather envious of her. The fact that she had her friends with her on her birthday, celebrating it with her and singing the birthday song to her. I don’t ever recall my friends singing it to me before, maybe except for the very one time in sec 4 where my class sang it to me. Neither do I remember having a birthday cake which were bought by friends. Even those class cakes which were bought for those born in that certain month I never did get to enjoy, perhaps due to bad timing, or simply because others had forgotten that I was born in that certain month. None of my birthdays actually seemed to be worth remembering…and I never really got what I wanted badly for my birthday either. Nothing fancy truly, but I just wished that others would take a little of their time, and write me a birthday letter? I don’t want any presents, a letter alone would be the best present ever, something which I could keep as a memory. Sadly, no one has actually bothered to do so, except for maybe zhenling’s letter this year J Ah, and surprises. I love them so. Unfortunately, they’re just not meant to be? Surprises are meant for people who are much more worth it than me. Some one important enough for them to actually rack their brains to make them happy. Argh, im blabbering. Okok, anyways, I decided that I shall just do what im missing out to others (eg give surprises!) so that at least I’ll get the joy of seeing others happy. As its stated, it better to give than to receive :P

Ah, im off the track again. Back to what happened. We continued watching the Simpsons. Despite me feeling really sleepy, I still thought the movie was pretty amusing. Next up was a scary midnight movie call “Fragile”. I was surprised that I managed to keep myself awake through out most of the entire movie. We later dedicated the night to Charlotte, the mechanical girl. After we retired to the room we cam-whorred!! Took loads of photos and we had fun with the posing. The sleeping part was terrible though. Well, it was have been a nice night if not for the fact that the blanket was pulled off me countless number of times in the night and I was practically freezing to death. I learnt that when you are freezing cold, the night seemed really long. But time still passed and morning came and went.

Afternoon I watched Rush Hour 3. And then went home a tired but happy girl. Happy at having met my friends. Happy at having been with them again.

Okay now back to the present times. On Saturday we went for the fp program. The kids were simply adorable and full of energy, although I wonder what kids these days are actually thinking in that warped little brain of theirs. I think this girl R got rather attached to me and kept sticking to my side. A while later she requested that I give her a piggy ride around the room. She wanted me to bring her to Monster, which was apparently this NJ guy called Ernest if I didn’t recall wrongly. I did as she asked for and when she saw him, she practically went wild. She took his hands and ran round him in circles, swinging him until I think he got giddy? Hmmm, who wouldn’t? Then later on when we were up in the playground thingy she actually took my hand and his and tried to make us hold hands! I was totally amused by it all when she started humming “teng teng teng teng”- the “marriage tune”. Gosh, and she didn’t only do it once. She tried to do so a few times in all. Kids nowadays, I find it hard to decipher what exactly are they thinking of. I wonder if I would do that when I was young. Probably not.

And then later another girl H came to stick with me. We went at this section where we could either move up or down. The convo went like this.
Me: so where do you guys wanna go next? Up or down?
H: Up!
R: Down!
Me: (looks at H)you want to go up, (looks at R)you want to go down…but there’s only one me…so..should I go up or down?
H: Up!
R: Down!
Me: silence
H: okay down!
R: No UP!
H: down
R: up!
H: up…
R: no down!
Me: okay okay, why dun you two make friends?
H: stares at me shyly
R: No! I don’t want, we go up!
And then at the point, H had to go off.
Food for thought: Why doesn’t R want to make friends with H? Why doesn’t she agree with H at all?

LOL.

Anyway, this week has been a slack week. I don’t recall touching any hw at all sighs. Ooh, and now I shall test my writing skills. Rusty already I suppose.

Our Promise (:
