Beautiful Disaster

Today started as early as 9 am cos Aiman and I planned to have MacDonalds breakfast at Science Centre before heading to ICA. It's been ages since I had Macs breakfast! So anyway after that, he accompanied me to apply for my passport renewal. The reason for waking up that early is really to avoid long queues at ICA but guess what? I didn't even need to queue today! Because we basically went to ICA JUST to write on the application form, paste my passport size photo, and drop it into the box before realising I had to make the payment first which would then produce a receipt that needed to be stapled to the application form that has already been dropped into the box! But thankfully the nice lady at the counter told us that they could open the box and retrieve back my application form so I could attach the receipt. But once they got to doing so, we were a tad little too late because some other staff already accumulated the forms somewhere else, so the box was empty! Why is it that everywhere I go there are always some occurences of trouble or incidences that are simply uncalled for? But anyway the person assured me that I only have to show my receipt on the collection day (this friday) and I'll get my new passport, so phew! It's really a lol-worthy incident though, like two idiots who know nuts!

So later, Khai & Syazwan joined us. They all didnt't have to go NS today, which was simply awesome since my Mondays are always free. One has a leave, another faked a frigging urgent leave, and another had a day-off after a duty. So anyway, joke of the day:

Someone: David Archie is playing.
Someone: Yeah, David Archuleta.
Khai: Yeah, ARCHULETA, doesn't it sound like a vegetable?

AND ALL OF US CRACKED LAUGHING LIKE MAD PLEASE. Even till now I still think it's funny ROLFLMAO!

And oh boy, it's raining again today. I really love being at home (:
Oh and I came across this interesting list of things to do in an elevator, enjoy!


Things to do in an elevator:

1) Bring a camera, and take pictures of everyone in the elevator.
2) Move your desk into the elevator, and whenever someone gets on, ask if they have an appointment.
3) Lay down a Twister mat and ask people if they’d like to play.
4) Leave a box in a corner, and when someone gets on, ask if they hear something ticking.
5) Pretend you are a flight attendant and review emergency procedures and exits with the passengers.
6) Ask, “did you feel that?”
7) Stand really close to someone, sniffing them occasionally.
8) When the doors close, announce to the others, “It’s okay, don’t panic. They’ll open up again.”
9) Swat at flies that don’t exist.
10) Tell people that you can see their aura.
11) Call out, “GROUP HUG!” and enforce it.
12) Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead and muttering, “Shut up. All of you. Just Shut up!!!”
13) Crack open your briefcase or purse and while peering inside, as “Got enough air in there?”
14) Stand silently and motionless in the corner, facing the wall, without getting off.
15) Stare at another passenger for awhile, then announce in horror, “You’re one of THEM,” and back away slowly.
16) Wear a puppet on your hand, and use it to talk to the other passengers.
17) Listen to the elevator walls with a stethoscope.
18) Make explosion noises when anyone presses a button.
19) Ask if you can push the button for other people, but push the wrong ones.
20) Stare grinning at another passenger for awhile, then announce “I have new socks on.”
21) Draw a little square on the floor with chalk, and announce to the other passengers, “This is MY personal space!!”
22) When there’s only one other person in the elevator, tap them on the shoulder and pretend it wasn’t you.
23) Push the buttons and pretend they give you a shock.
24) Call the Psychic Hotline from your cell phone, and ask if they know what floor you’re on.
25) Hold the doors open, and say that you’re waiting for your friend. After awhile, let the doors close and say, “Hi Greg, how’s your day been?”
26) Drop a pen, and wait until someone reaches to help pick it up, and then scream “That’s mine!”

Artichoke

Back to basics

Once again the heavy downpour. Certainly the rhythmic sound of the rain, slapping against the floor, against the windows, have conjured images in our heads of the pleasant idea of sleeping, or reading with hot cocoa (but of course this wouldn't be possible due to fasting), or just snuggling up in bed. How nice. But here I am almost dressed and ready for school. I don't know why, but it has been quite some time since I felt like I've been in school, like proper school. Perhaps it's the three days mc I've got. But now, I feel like I'm energized despite fasting, all set and ready for school. The scent of cooking porridge and spaghetti made me all excited to get through 2 lectures, one meeting and a bus ride home back welcomed by the sumptuous breaking fast meal although I'd only be back by eight-ish. Today shall be the first in a long time I'd make an appearance in French class. It's been more than a week. Wish me luck that my temperature won't rise...

Coincidence helps you in some way

There's this guy who happens to be in the same stats and developmental psych tutorial as me, and we knew each other through those classes. So after our class yesterday, we happened to board the same bus, happened to go to the same place, and happened to need to deposit money as well. I brought half of my wad of notes from money I collected from Hari Raya and the money I received from tuition too. Anyway, thankfully for the guy, he told me that the machine does not accept 5-dollar, and 2-dollar notes and MAJORITY of the thick wad of notes I brought were. Can you imagine how stupid I would look if I were to put the whole wad of notes there and they would all be rejected? And I had FORGOTTEN about it, so dumb please. You know, families should give you $10 notes instead of $2s (HAHA). So geez, I only managed to bank in abit only. After everything, the guy had to go for his taekwondo classes and I'm meeting Qeen, AND after spoken about exams, exchange programmes, past schools, bad ...
