I'm 23! And crazy! Wheeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

To those who joined me for my birthday dinner, thanks. Hope you guys had a good time ;) It's fun hanging out with you guys... *tear*

And Greg... what can I say? I've already thanked you *heheh...* but yeah, you're a sweetie. Thanks babe. *Mwak*

Killing Time

I'm playing Literati. My opponent's kinda slow (it's a 'no time limit' game) so while I wait for him/her/it to make a move, here's something I stole from Alvin's blog. He stole it from someone else anyway, so I guess that's fair.
Edit: I'm on lunch break at work. Bored, so here I am again, just killing time. Can't be bothered to post a new one, so I'll just randomly edit this.

1. Name Two Bad Habits You Have:
Sleeping late, and err... not wearing sunblock?
Edit: On deeper consideration, I guess bad habit #2 is impulse buying. I spend too much. Especially on bikinis.

2. Name Two Things That You Wish You Had:
Washboard abs. And lots more money.

3. Name Two Scents You Love:
Ooh ooh RASPBERRY!!!!! I go nuts for anything raspberry scented. A smell so good, I could eat it. And Famous Amos cookies.
Edit: Anything sinfully chocolate-y will do really. I'm a chocoholic. It's no secret that I'm nuts about brownies.

4. Name Two People That Know You the Best :
Greg, obviously. And my dad, though I think Greg probably knows me a little bit better =/

5. Name Two Things You’d Never Wear:
Leotards. I think I'd probably try anything else at least once.
Edit: Wait, I take that back. You'll never catch me in a baggy shirt. Except in bed, with nothing else on. Whee!

6. Name Two Things You Are Thinking About Now:
Work (sigh), and America's Next Top Models, which started 5 mins ago.

7. Name Four Things That You Have Done Today:
Attended a course on marketing; eaten a sandwich at Nosh; cleaned my room; practised guitar. Not very exciting huh.

8. Name the Last Four Things You Have Bought:
Err... biscuits, more biscuits, cheese crackers and Wang Wang (crackers). Snacks for work ;)
Edit: Cheese crackers goooooood.

9. Name Four Bands/Vocals/Groups:
Electrico, Jars of Clay, Third Eye Blind, Barenaked Ladies

10. Name Two Drinks You Regularly Drink:
Milo and iced lemon tea.

11. First Grade Teacher Name?

My dad

15 Last Thing You Laughed At?

17. Last Time You Cried?
Sunday morning.

18. What’s In Your CD Player?
Futures by Jimmy Eat World

19. What Color Socks Are You Wearing?

20. What’s Under Your Bed?
Nothing. I just cleaned my room.

21. What Time Did You Wake Up Today?
6am, 730am, 8am. The first time was to give Greg a wake-up sms. Then I went back to sleep till 730, when I was SUPPOSED to get up. Sadly, I was awake for only about 3 mins before I fell asleep again. Oh well.

To sleep.
Edit: So does this.

A ladybird on a yellow flower. Lovely. I got it from stockxchg, a free photo site.

28. Current Worry?
That I won't have enough $$ to last me the month.

29. Current Hate?
Work? It's a love-hate relationship really.

30. Favorite Physical Feature Of Opposite Sex?
OOOOOOOH... that's a toughie. Shoulders and chest, biceps, abs. And I love a strong jawline.
Edit: Oh forgot to mention this... I've got a thing for big, strong, warm hands. Maybe cos my hands are small and I love holding hands. The hands get me every time.

Haha... I love these quizzes! They're so totally pointless.

Tight as they come

I am 2 Star Kayaker. Yay!!!!!

Finally did my expedition today. In the pouring rain. It was freezing cold, the current was strong, the waves were high and the rain kept getting in my eyes. There was a small hole in my kayak, though I didn't realise it till later, so my kayak filled up with water and got heavier and heavier as I valiantly laboured along. But paddle I did, and I completed my mission without capsizing, (although I came close!) and at the end of it I got my cert, albeit 8 months overdue.

Exhausting work! I'm just glad I had Greg with me ;) He's a lifesaver, not least because I don't think I could even have managed my craft on land without him! It's far more tiring carrying the kayak than actually doing the expedition. Thanks babe... I owe you. So much. I'll probably spend the rest of my life trying to be to you what you are to me, and I'll be lucky (or you will!) if I could be just a fraction of that. It never ceases to amaze me that you'll do almost anything for me, willingly and cheerfully, and make me feel like it makes your day to do it! I'm lucky lucky I'm so lucky...

It's been a tiring weekend. Well, fun definitely. Ran on Saturday morning, walked the dog, got various errands done. Went for the Rovers committee chalet (it's great to be alumni!). Nice quiet time of eating and chatting. Taboo was fun. I like!

Planned to go clubbing at KM8 or Coco Latte on Sat night but it didn't quite work out. Maybe next time. Speaking of Coco Latte, here's a shot taken by Nightlife the last time I went with Greg and his friend and his friend's friend and her friends...


Notice how red I am. I really can't hold my liquor.

Anyway, Zouk's reopening soon, undecided as to whether I'm going. It's the night before my birthday so... we'll see I guess. Anyway I've already got plans that evening, having dinner with the girls. So maybe I'll just give the reopening a miss. There's the Juice party at Zouk the week after which I'm probably going for, since Greg's already got free tickets. Anyone else interested? ;)

Hope to get a big group of friends for the Juice party. It's always more fun to club in big groups huh. More guys, more guys! I think we've got the girls covered. (Sniff.)

More on parties some other time. I'm sleepy, and my body's aching all over. Time for beddy-bye. Part of me's still wide awake though. Maybe it's my stomach. I'm still feeling full from dinner - to celebrate my great achievement today, we did what we vowed we'd absolutely NEVER do (again)... we ate at Carl's Jr. ARGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH! The chilli cheese fries are filling all right. No more CJ, at least not for the next 5 years!!!!! Heh.

Oh yeah, I didn't mention golf did I? Played golf for the first time today, and I only scored 3 over par more than Greg!!! Okay, so it was maniature golf, but still. Pretty fun stuff, for 33 bucks. Even though the monkey freaked me out a little. Haha. Sundays are fun days.

Edit 1: Oh in case you were wondering about this entry's title, it just means I'm pretty broke this month. Big bills to pay. And little ones. Like 33 bucks for golf (worth it though! We got to take shots with the fake char siew rice).
Edit 2: If you're wondering what to get me for my birthday, money's always good. Heh just kidding. Stay tuned for details!
