drop a crochet note

is currently an undergraduate student, and coping with her overwhelming commitments. I like long walks in solitude, cosy chats, usually sleep like a log, and beg your patience in tolerating my versatile humour

I don't feel the urge to blog as often as I used to in the past? Maybe it's because of my increasingly short attention span nao a days with all the FUN STUFFZ for the holidays. Past week has been a blast actually! Been house visiting, Fishy's for some baking escapades and then to Abel's for CAW meeting. Amazing hospitality! Last week I really coudn't keep track of the days at all, especially the weekend. On Christmas Eve I had a damn funny time hunting for my clothes because I am a last minute kancheong spider who did not have anything new to wear for Christmas and my mother has alot of superstitions. So I went with Carmen to Bugis as we climbed over railings because it was too crowded HAHA tak glam tak glam! Then I walked around FOR SUPER LONG until it was 7pm plus before I got me clothes.
Christmas was quiet, I literally spent it in front of the TV and then some horrible stuff cropped up was pretty upset. Thank you all my dear Favourites for always listening to me what would I do without you (: seriously h8 men sometimes.
Yesterday I drove! WOOHOO! So exciting, even though plenty of second opinions in the car non stop after which the ironic comment that "feel free to make your own judgment". And of course I still take very long to park, because I am anal like that and I want it to be perfectly IN THE LOT WHEELS STRAIGHT.
I baked today from scratch how awesome! (: Pretty tiring work, started at about 4ish and only ended at 9 omg no break in between. Of course I was pretty annoyed because what I wanted was quite different from the end result due to SECOND OPINIONS and altering ingredients and OMG WHERE WAS THE WOODEN SPOON. My arm is really sore now which means I haven't been exercising sigh but I have containers and containers of CHOCOLATE COOKIES! YAY.

Looking forward to EGGCITING WEEK AHEAD.

I needn't have worried after all, God's intervention was awesomite so we had an awesomite ADVENTure camp! (: Finally able to breathe a huge sigh of relief after 3 days of hardcore saikang with Andrew. It was really nice being able to match the names to the faces and the faces to the names, mingling and our late night debriefs. The group tasks were pretty darn cool, due to Programme's planning - Wise Men went to IKEA in search of gifts, Angels intercept us, Mary cooked spaghetti, Joseph and his biodegradable donkey and the shepherds built the manger! (: A pity we didn't manage to take enough photos, comm members could only be at one place at one time (I of course, defied this).
During the course of the camp, Jocelyn Jockhim, true to her Log/Admin status, was:
Cleaning
Sweeping
Mopping
Refilling the water dispenser
Stirring the cordial/milo
Paying caterer
Running
Walking
Hopping (Broke my slipper)
Wiping
Clearing trash
and any other suitable gerund you can think of, insert here.

Cabbed there from my place with Beck Jerome Andrew cos of all the log items, and the cleaning aunty was so surprised I could speak in Tamil that she went out of her way to give me bleach and cleaning liquid ;) Of course, I also got to see the nicer side of people of whom I had a different impression which was pretty great. Plus the star gazing we had at night under the clear unobstructed night sky thanks to Janice's wow identification of ALL the stars. Not to mention the awesome supper :D Thank you Marie's MUM ah!

Came home yesterday (had a ride home) and crashed until evening, only to realise I missed class lunch ): Sigh, guess this weekend's been a camp of HIGH HIGH OPPORTUNITY COSTS.

Today, saya pergi ke Malaysia dengan emak saya. Kami jalan jalan di shopping centre dan membeli belah barang barang. Saya pergi ke kedai rambut, dan makan di Restoran Hong Kong, ada sedap makan bagus sekali. Selapas itu, kami menaiki bas dan keretapi balik rumah.

Happy, content and looking forward to this Christmas more than ever (: Thanks for opening up my eyes God to what Advent is truly about! (P.S Had a midnight mass in cold cold room)

Had a round of HTHTs this week, thanks to my awesome buddies who always catch me when I am falling. Thanks for hearing me out, so annoyed with person but have to grit my teeth and bear with it because of the pain that is hierarchy. Seriously annoyed that people can't even spare a thought that you are a GIRL and not as fit as them expect you to know how to do stuff. This is not gender bias. I know there's equality and blah but if you can define your gender based boundaries so well then expect me to do that too.

Also, am eagerly anticipating the weekend but honestly for more selfish reasons ;) Hopefully they'd allow me to sneak away when the workload's done without rife speculation.

Carolling was awesomeite dynamite, honestly was my virgin experience singing in parts HAHA, and boy everyone sounded pretty good! I <3 the cute cuddly boy who eagerly jumped up and down and dragged his chair over during performance to hear us sing. It's really sad when you see kids in the wards, I don't think they belong there but somewhere where the grass is always green. Sigh.

No more activities from stalker! Phew, am uber relieved. Thanks for the advice my dear friends, ignoring really works wonders.

PHONE CALL PHONE CALL PHONE CALL. I need to bring charger for camp sia, hopefully this month I did not explode my phone bill lest my mom explodes. You peeps can call me after 12 Fri/Sat if you need to talk to someone! I doubt I'd be sleeping much, judging by the timesheet just sent in by Charm. Speaking of which Mom accompanied me for logistics just now and I ended up underbuying haha, cos of second opinions. I am also very proud of myself for packing 'em neatly into stolen cardboard boxes and secured with tape. I couldn't fit the bisuits though ):

God, please bless Advent Camp - so many changes, participation problems, inconveinent timings - I really hope You can make this work out. Thanks alot God, for lighting that dying spark within me to do You service. I'm still wandering around aimlessly because my purpose is elusive as ever, and I guess drifting away from Catholic-related things has sorta put some pespective.

New friend this week (: So happy. And I had to cut bamboo poles with a KITCHEN KNIFE. Oh, my, gosh. My knot tying skills during log, FAIL.

Okay God, please bless me with NO MORE PIMPLES ARGH and a restful sleep tonight. Ta!

Insecurities, inadequacies, misunderstood signals.
Really hope camp works out!
Haha just had funkytime thinking of retard cheers with Joel Zomg.



Woohoo, the holidays are finally here and I couldn't be happier myself :D After the agonizing two weeks of shuttling to and fro school in the freezing MPSH, I found myself a free blueblackbird on Wed. And of course I naturally forgot to return my library books so had to come back the next day -.-
Life's been dandy for the first week of December, just the usual keeping in contact with old friends and getting back into the secondary school routine of heading down to the library and borrowing some good ol' books. Am currently reading True Love and Other Lies, typical chick lit and quite mindless and predictable.
Friday to Sunday was a pretty good weekend I had in ages. Friday was wonderful because I am now offically P-Plate Moss :D Shortest test route in my life and my instructor's name was quirky, weather was fine, no horrible NEW roadworks. The feeling was liberating, like I REALLY ended my exams. Then it rained and poured like seriously, I was so glad that I was on the bus to the SPCA. But of course! I realised I took the wrong bus only when it started going to AMK and I scrambled for the exit. Then I had to took the circle line instead. Which btw was totally empty. SPCA was pretty nice and cosy, plenty of meow meows to keep me entertained. There was this super attention loving cat that plopped up on me and sat down, much to the amusement of some Chinese-speaking visitors who said "Wah no need to ask permission ah!"
Then I witnessed a REAL cat fight between it and another feline, which was broken up by the volunteer who took the injured cat and lavished it with attention, while telling off Attention Seeking Cat. Funny thing was that ATC responded by "grumbling" and slouching away to a corner.
Then came home and went for FUEL! Woohoo! They had this cave-like arrangement in front of youth room for the nativity play and I spent a good 5 minutes figuring out who to get in, until Sister helped. Haha. Noob. Then had late late dinner of hor fun with raw egg that cooks in the head with the bunch of them, before heading back.
Saturday! Hmm, what did I do? I woke up slow, met Mr Foo to catch New Moon. Was really late actually, we practically dashed all the way and when we went in they just started (meaning we had missed 15 minutes of commercials). NEW MOON BTW IS EXTREMELY A LET DOWN PLEASE. So many parts of the book which I thought were interesting was cut out, and the chemistry between Jacob and Bella was a bit strained I thought. As in, I know it's meant to be awkward cos the r/s is like best friends bordering on something else but I thought Bella could have looked more happy to see Jacob. PLUS, the ending! OMG! Horrendible! I practically cringed. Twlight virgins would definitely be like, "Huh, that's it?"
):

But in compensation, Saturday out was still woohoo cos met up with Kathy and Ivan to pass them my books/magazines. And then while walking back, had a very painful Prudential survey to sit down and do, and they kept asking so many awkward non-Prudential related questions. Lucky, I knew what the bank plan was about so saved them some selling by saying that I wasn't interested cos it's not like I can keep $$$ inside for 24 months hellooooo.

Then met up with FISHYFISHY to watch performance at Esplanade! :D After which we queued up for uber long at this Jap place which had decent food at decent prices! (considering we were at Esplanade). Then walked around aimlessly browsing/shopping before heading home.

Sunday I drove my dad's car :D Woohoo, right after our lunch at Botak Jones (didn't know they had one in TP) and then practised my horidble parking skillz, much to my dad's chagrin.

Okay, I'm still trying to get used to all this free time. It's a bit weird cos I'm not used to not being preoccupied with something - no ushering, no tutition. What am I going to do! Haha.
