Pei popped this question the other day:

"karen do you have this insane need to be attached to a guy"

I DO! Sometimes, not always. I haven't met the right person yet though, I am pretty confident about that.

I had my lashes permed today. I fell asleep during the process and when i woke up I got a shock because my hair was curly since it had been slightly damp. There was a discount from $48 to #30, although I suspect it's they type of discount that never ends. Along with the lash adhesive I bought the day before i have spent more than $50 on my pathetic sad wanting lashes.

I was on the way back, and I overheard a girl's phone conversation.

"Oh, you mean, like reaching the Zen state when you meet a bitchy girl?"

Then, on the taxi the other day:

Me: My friend told me that all my friends look very blissful.
Dah and eeLeen: ( highly amused )
Me: He is a dancer. He asked me if he could look blissful too.
Taxi Driver: He is dancer, can look blissful, because dancers alot of blisters.



Why do I not understand world humour anymore.

Yogi told me 3 times yesterday that we have the same mind.

See what 108/208 has done to us. I would love to go back. That was such a FUN class. Best.

I like it because it reminds me of the acrylic work Ashlyn and I did during Art. We did a piece with maple leaves falling and transforming into a butterfly. It was inspired by a poem, I think. There were some tiny holes in our spray painting, but it was selected as a gift for the guest-of-honour for Speech Day. Sometimes I wonder what has happened to it. It would have been nice if we kept it.

today I travelled Singapore. From Yewtee to Bukit Panjang to Bishan to Penisular Hotel to City Link / Marina and back home.I had my hair cut today, by Dah and eeLeen's stylist, who is called Jason like my brother. He was amicabilis because he saw my slr and he owns a D200 with $1000 lens. Dah and I concluded that SLR users are all super friendly with each other. Anyway no hairstylist ever lets me escape with longer fringe anymore, and I have shortie fringe again. When I wear my glasses, I look like a school teacher. Dah joined her mother for dinner at 6 and I went to collect CF card and shopped at Marina and City Link till the shops closed. Shopping alone is TOO EFFECTIVE. I am now bankrupt. I need friends to shop with so I can be distracted and practise my fickleness.

I am not in love/out of love. Please don't ask me anymore. I am single, I am in 2 single clubs.

I blog, eat and sleep in periods. Sometimes I am on a blogging hiatus sometimes I blog compulsively sometimes I have no appetitite sometimes I have cravings excessively sometimes I don't sleep much sometimes I sleep too much.

I haven't had the need for much sleep recently, but yesterday i slept 5 hours in the afternoon and 7 hours in the night. Right now I am unbelievably sleepy. I'm attempting a conversation with Ashlyn who has left to study because she said I am just trying to humour her. My pumpkin soup has turned cold because I have.... no strength to eat it. Am I ill?


Today was spent at Chinatown with eeLeen Xinhui and Dah.






















I totally need to go to bed now, continue blogging tomorrow.

I have a few more hours to decide whether to cut my hair.

I want to....

=)

I must be becoming mad because I love reading about girls who think they are right but are perceived as mad. I've read some of Amelie Northomb's The Book Of Proper Names and I'm enjoying it pretty much. Today I slept from 2 in the afternoon till 7. I can stay up to finish the book tonight.

Yesterday I went to HortPark Henderson Waves Anderson Arch again. That's once a week! Alright no, it's my second time there and the walk feels much shorter already. The weekend crowd wasn't there, which meant we could walk faster and the air cooler. The monkeys have vanished. I plan to arm myself with bananas the next time I go there.

eeLeen bought a eos 450d on sunday, so I was testing her giant 3 inch screen with live preview. Apparently the live preview isn't very fantastic. We went for the walk with Dah and eeLeen's friends tunkai and andrew, who are great photographers. At the end of the day eeLeen was looking through their photos which prompted her to ask if we actually were in the same place. haha.

So I was complaining to Ashlyn about how my photos are sooooo horrible today, and she said this:

Ashlyn says:
because yesterday u sad
Ashlyn says:
so that's why affected

Genius. I shall pretend to believe.

BUT REALLY. why today so bad.

Robin took so long to cancel mahjong session and make new plans... which ended up exploring the library, shopping NTUC and Popular and eating KFC... which all feels so OLD. Plus he had to walk into teens section and complain endlessly about being tooo old. I HAVE TO SAY THIS: ROBIN USES PINK STRAWBERRY YOGHURT HAIRWAX. He is proud of it of course.

Then met Chengwei after 100000 years ate sai bakchormee and got chided for not finishing it. Saw 3 Korean boys who looked like clones but not very attractive even with rather sexy hair.

I was talking to Yogi and she said : "Singapore is not the same without Ashlyn."

Message!

"Hello! All the boys in the world not good enough for you. Good night. :) This is surprise msg. "


=) =) thank you ashlynnnn. 33 more days!

Dinner at Chomp chomp with eeLeen and Dah was good, although I am seriously Dahniela-overdosed. In 10 hours I will see her again for Sports Ball meeting.

We had cake and ice-cream at Coffeebean and detergent-like icecream place, a romantic night walk in the warm Friday air, caught 15 minutes of P.S I love you, and sat on a bench with a low tree that scraped Dahniela's head. eeLeen attempted to DESTROY me with her criticisms; my farmer tunic, my Gollum voice, my new name ah-wa. But I am strong ( like gladiator, ashlyn! ). I just need to meditate.
