ahaha, today i found my turtle in the living room. he crawled out while i was studying... busted out of the toilet again, i have no idea how. now he's really daring. he scratches me when i pick him up and he poops on dry ground. ( both of which he didn't use to do.) sinful turtle.

i haven't touched a paintbrush or drawing pencil in ages and it feels funny. it feels like i'm ignoring my art stuff as they're calling out to me. oh, and i heard a painter moved into the house across the road from church. interestingg~

teeth are much better. finally.

HAPPY BIRFDAY EDWARD! :)

HAPPY BIRFDAY S. WEICHERN! :)

had the wire in my braces changed last friday. not that i wanted it changed, it's just part of the braces 'schedule'. (haha.) the wire's smaller, and it's giving me a very hard time. it is so painful, and i CAN"T EAT. well, dinner just now was better cause i could bite spaghetti. but the whole of today, the day i needed the most energy with the outing and what not, the whole of today i was hungry and i did not feel like moving at all. bought the nutritional milk ensure at guardian and that's all i had. =( super sad. so i sorta spaced out at the park just now, didn't really play anything with the kids. oh but i filled waterbombs and carried water until my back broke. all for the love of children, ah yes.

but like i said, dinner helped alot. feel so much better after some hot food. :)

yesterday was a hungry day too. had to eat porridge for lunch and dinner. and had to accompany mommy again.. this time to use up some metro vouchers. i bought a campbells tomato soup tee which is totally rad. bought some clothes for timmy too, to replace (some of ) his lame-o old ones. got back home at 10pm (!). was so tired. slept at 1am. bad timing.

randomly, the skit we did for the kids today was.. alright? at least we brought the message across quite clearly. thank God we didn't mess up. as a side note: i'm still praying about whether or not to join the children's ministry next year after my school ends. i want to help in the teens ministry, but, well, i'm a teen? so maybe next time.

tired. have to cheong for tests this week. good night lah.

went to see mama yesterday. mama's doing just fine. she's eating and pooping well, still very sane and sound. she's sane enough to make fun of people at the old folks' home. haha. you know when they have those exercise sessions and they sit in a circle and have to throw a ball around or something. well most of them are zombied out of their wits half the time so, just imagine how they look like. mama describes those scenes to us and tells us how dumb it looks. but, it's good for her. it keeps her mind working, observing and stuff.

she's in a new room now and the ladies in the room are hilarious. at least two of them. one is mentally unstable but she grabs anything within her reach trying to get attention. she grabs it and tugs it. yesterday she got mom's bag. and this other lady will curse and swear at her, all the hokkien malay what have you. goodness it's mad funny! literally cursing non stop, she gets so mad and the tugging lady. GOOD THING MAMA'S DEAF i dunno how she would tahan this duo if she wasn't.

anyways, we had a cozy time, just mom, me and mama. mama jjang lah.

helped jake with the games a little last night. (for the children's day thing coming up this sunday.) gonna be a long day. he needs people to fill up water bombs so, go volunteer plees. haha like war.

oh, when mama sees me... she'll pretend she didn't see me then when i walk up to her she'll shout "BOMMM!" idk why but it's so cute. she has big eyes and nostrils, the latter of which i inherited. yeah tim got the sharpie nose. tsk.
don stare at me when you see me next ah.

i find myself cooking alot these days. why? because i find myself eating alone alot. well, with bran, but it's not like he sits at the table and talks with me. frozen foods jjang!

having tummy trouble again. ah yes, i'm a girl. :\

thank God that daddy made 6 sales on his first day. and thank God that timmy passed some driving test.. think it's the theory test or something. :)

yesterday night i sat on a bunch of ants and got bitten real bad all over my arms. ants are nasty. just now i had to clear out the fridge. rotting bananas (!), old ketupat, and old pasta. kjnsflwkjf.

it's daddy's first day at his new job tomorrow. he's a sales promoter at NUH, selling medical stuff from europe like blood pressure monitors and stuff. :)

spent the holiday today just totally 'relaking' at home. my headache carried on from yesterday so i sorta spent the day trying to get rid of it. today was quite boring. :|

mom doesn't have gallstones. she has fatty liver (fats around the liver). she says it's probably cos of her high cholesterol. :( bugger.

thanks for doing the calling for me jamie! owe you.

glare.

shock.

half an hour time-kill at daiso.

uhh, i'm trying to think of stuff for the kids to do in chapel. they're always so bored. =( visual aid plees. i dunno what to do for art and craft and games alsoooooo. *cries*

very tired today. had to accompany mom to thrift shop and hair cut and giant to buy groceries (!) after teens and choir. my skin is peeling off my face because of idk. (freak out pls.) then i came back and had this long and heavy talk with tim.

i headache now. i go bathe.

yesterday before dinnertime timmy suddenly called me from the kitchen.

A: WHAT LAH!
T: where's your turtle?!

charlie escaped from the toilet! he crawled out of the shower area and the toilet altogether! and nobody knew! not even bran. so the three of us (tim me bran) searched everywhere for about 15 mins. found him sandwiched between some boxes in my dad's study. good thing he didn't poop anywhere. he doesn't poop unless he's in water. strange right? civilized turtle.

mom's 2 days of MC finished yesterday. now tim is sick and took MC. oh, my mom went for a scan yesterday to check if she has gallstones. her abdomen hurts. =(

i have nineteen more PACEs for the year, those who know what i'm talking about. aza!

i hope there's 2D1N today. please please have.

sher this look suits you.
<3

(????)
now the posting page is back to normal! whaa?

right, so i passed the CPR first aid be-a-hero course! it was quite fun lah, i guess because i was pretty interested. some girls were dozing off beside me while the guy was talking, which made me feel very nerdy since i was somehow so attentive. (hha) on sunday my lips were sore... because of all the ventilations on the dummy. (mouth to mouth.) think my braces rubbed against my skin inside. yeouch~

and i kept asking tim and jake if they were choking during lunch, since i am now certified to help. yeah!

attended prayer retreat as a non-stayer on thursday and friday. there were messages on prayer and how to pray, and we prayed for hours? my neck was just, broken by the time it ended. was seriously tired but i held up. :)

got a new portrait to do, yes money come money. waiting for the fella to send me the pic.

lunch with da bros. both refused to pay for me, the only one with no allowance whatsoever. tim and i headed over to the boitmans' to wish the september babes happy birthmonth after that. walked like mad in my black heels... almost died.

HAVE A GOOD TRIP BACK BRO. RICHIE!

uhh really tired, i gave the same person CPR about 300 times today. :)

will bloggabout prayer retreat and today's stuff tomorrow.

fighting!

haha today was strangely funny. went for the first aid course, which ends with a test tomorrow (!)(die). okay lah, frankly and i dunno why, i expected the civil defence to teach us so i was expecting a young guy or girl to be the instructor, but it ended up being an old man from raffles medical. still he's reallly cute. like a funky grandpa. he is not slow AT ALL he talks like a machine gun (with those medical terms. brain like wow for old person.) AND he seems to need to crack a joke every minute. some super funny, some lame beyond imagination. i think i learned quite a good bit of first aid today. *satisfied grin*

haven't gotten to dramatic CPR yet, just learned how to 'bao' ppl up in bandages properly.

other than the older people i only talked to becca and sher. and becca's little brother named reuben, because he said my hair color is nice. bet he doesn't know i have white hair. reuben has big hair.

suddenly.
R: is your hair naturally brown?
A: huh? yah.
R: oh. it's very nice.
A: nice right? haha.
R: *runs away*





A: shouts- I'm seventeen years old! i'm old!
Ubin: laugh laugh.

ugh kbs didn't air today's ep of 2D1N and i am not happy. because i rushed back to watch it. boo lah.

my friend's grandpa committed suicide yesterday. sad news. i visited him every CNY. i'm not exactly close to him, but there is a weird feeling knowing that someone you know has left this earth.

my grandma's better, although i dunno why she went to hospital again yesterday.. i think it's just a checkup. i hope she stays safe and sound where she is, although i still wish she could come home. sigh.

prayer retreat later. and two tests-- history and english composition. bashia!

mm, boohoo. i changed the template to one from blogger and it's still the same.

LAST WEEK: monday.
geil and i were supposed to have lunch with mr. patrick but he bailed because of a meeting. but he gave us 20 bucks to fulfill his promise of a treat. we went to astons and ate our hearts out, bought extra stuff and all. i love astons. food is okay, price is good, no service charge, and the waiters are super nice. guess that's why the place is always so crowded. i can imagine the whole SSC closing down except astons, still bustling with business. hah~

later in the evening daddy and i met up with tim and mom after work and headed to funan for dinner. then we went to the dead sea scrolls exhibition. i found it pretty cool... followed an old lecturer around and listened to him explain everything. there were scrolls and bibles on display. archeology seems cooler than i previously thought. ;) the lecturer was quite daring in his speech. at the end he encouraged us all to love God's Word and abide by it after seeing the its wonderful preservation and hearing about the men who died for it. (like tyndale. sad.) and so the evening ended very thoughtfully for me.

his name was doctor quek. daddy promptly said: quek doctor. hah~

trying to fully conquer the sorethroat, argh.

i'm still having the blogger problemmmmmmm ah!

i picked up a turtle from the drain beside church yesterday. his name is charlie and he now lives in my room. maybe just temporarily, idk. but for now he's here. i feel like i rescued him. he's the size of a hand. bran hates him to the max. i was supposed to set him free in a reservoir. that's illegal anyway, from what i just heard. :|

was pretty sick last week with a fever and the works, and then i got better nearing the weekend, and then now i have a sorethroat again. must be some funky strain of flu, it's so hard to get rid of. ahem ahem.

was invited to some community work thing where they let you paint and provide canvasses free and display your stuff, and of course you make a donation after that. sounds cool, but it's all the way in serangoon so, nah. but thanks for the invite tim! if you're reading this... which i doubt since it's been so horribly stagnant. =(

tim's some guy i met at the park. ;D

plan to frame up my paintings with cheap frames from daiso.

HAPPY BIRFDAY TITO RICHIE. :)
