ramblings

its been a wonderful long long weekend. happy deepavali, and selamat hari raya to my dearest li and mirri! =) this long break has been fantastic and therapeutic. even though ive been mostly holed up in my room not really wanting to talk to people, or out with my parents. not really in the mood to socialise much too; somehow im very very self conscious of my braces now that the lower row has been put in. i dont really know how to smile anymore =( bleah. practicing in front of the mirror doesnt help either. hahaha. im just going to throw the towel in and just heck it and be ugly anyway.

i realised that looking good takes a tremendous lot of effort. not that i do at any point in time, but im just saying. of course, some girls are just naturally pretty, even without trying. those, are the lucky 5% of all females around. and of course, beauty is subjective. i get exposed to that everyday. guys debating over "the prettiest girl in medicine", and trust me, in our batch, there's lots to choose from. hahaha. and well, soandso will ALWAYS say that he likes girls who dont look like a shrunken apple (and simultaneously totally insult cel by calling her chubby), and someone will divulge who his eye candy is... and well, almost always, someone else will counter that with "--- is prettier!!!". this debate is not limited to the guys alone. we girls are constantly going over whom we think is the best looking out of our lot too. what a silly topic to talk about. but its a brainless one, which really helps when our brains have been fried by all the nonsense innundating it daily, and all it has to retain. heard of the term over-usage?

so anyway im on to that because i just spent 15mins watching chiobus on youtube. someone passed me a link because she thought they saw my best friend shiyun on one of the channelU programmes. lets not get me started about how i feel about channelU programming. bleah. but its not her anyway. thankgod. she's so much prettier than the girl there. haha.

went fooding with my parents and uncle today too! claypot laksa and my favourite avocado milkshake at alexandra village! then to ah chew's desserts near bugis after that! wonderfulicious! hahaha. im now snacking on the nice teochew kueh from the shop in alexandra village too. FATTENING. but im underweight so im not bothered. shall post fooding photos!!!

there. i love the egg n milk custard at ah chew's. haha.

and going to alexandra village brings back lots of memories. miss you!

i must talk more to my best friends like yun, sel, diane, and sarah who're like so distant now because we're all so busy we dont talk anymore. must must.
time to mug again. i am so not looking forward to school tomorrow. sighs.
