YOU READY FOR A LONG ENTRY? =)
I was feeling more than fine abt my day when my inner smile unconsciously turned to a frown once I stepped home. OK. I mean to start this on a cheery note. Let me breathe in and out 10 times.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right. So as I was saying. Glorious day. I have been busy. Good tired-busy. My nights were mostly too short to write abt my days...I suddenly get why pple can be workaholics. You know..when u're busy u're action-orientated, not thoughts or self-orientated. And action is less painful than thoughts sometimes.
Ok cheery entry. Glorious day. Actually, yesterday was kinda fun too. Met Jia Jun and chew for dinner, though I was darn tired after trying to ask people to do surveys. Am thankful that ability to laugh at and with friends isnt lost. =) And the day before yesterday wasnt too bad either. Was with May, reminiscing about those days where we waitressed at Brewerks, the cute cooks and my little thing with that fryer(this man that is only incharge of frying fries all day)...and how Shirley is irrefutably the best looking butch ard...
Shirley whirly
Teeth so pearly
Legs so hairy

____7am____
Tdy I woke up early for some resume writing workshop in school. Ended up totally not paying any attention. Sorry Del. Its like the I'm-21-and-nothing-you-say-will-ever-impress-me attitude. Like everything has become cliched. Even the word cliche. I know... I am such a conceited bitch. But really. He din do it for me. But Adel was so laughing at his jokes. Coz he tells them just like Ronald does. Del, stick to watermelon la. hahahaha
___10.30am___
Around this time something amazing happened!~ You know how some people just makes that difference to you? They so do it for u. Their presence, their style, their look, their talk, even their walk. Suddenly u're feeling that living is the fun-est thing on earth. Living is the best thing to do. =) Ok...Adel and me were in Can A and My Lit Tutor appeared!~ Main point is!! Adel went GAGA, I repeat, GAGA over him when she saw him!!! Apparently my past descriptions of him totally didnt fit the bill. Ha. She conjured up some wrong image which din exactly do it for her. So he said hi and then proceeded along with his long purposeful strides to charm the cashier at mcdonalds. Man......YOU GOTTA SO CLASH MY LECTURE NEXT SEM TO SEE HIM!
___1.00pm___
Met Jia Pei for lunch. She was having stomachache so she din eat. Think she's so skinny and small now I'm afraid she might disappear anytime soon...=( She bought me an ancient looking book mark for my b-day present. Awesome. Turns out her bf is a SGX scholar too!~ So they know Serene. Aint it funny how round the world is?
___3.00pm___
Reached town to begin a painful affair...
"Hi, I'm not selling anything...I..." Couple almost shouts a strong NO! and then walks damn fast. =) OK....great. Breathe and sing X'mas carols to self...
Changes strategy. Walks RIGHT IN FRONT of them so that they cant bloody move. Smiles profusely. "HI, I'm a student from NTU and we're doing a research on love, are you a couple? Not married yet right?" At this point some pple leave and you're left with a heartache. If they are still apprehensive but still there, then I say "We're trying to find out what makes a couple satisfied and happy with their r/s, can u spare a few mins to do the survey? You can leave ur email and we'll mail you our findings!" There u have it. Was doing that for the past two days. I have ZERO idea how ADel got 60 pple to do her survey. Poor u. U have my hat.
My day turned for the better when I met Jessica and Rando in town. They just finished shoppin for gifts. They stayed with us and help us spot prospective couples for abt an hour!! They were good!~ Thanks guys. Clamied I was too selective. I sieved out those thaT were too young, too fierce looking, too old, too pissed-off looking, smoking, too I-will-so-slap-u-if-u-come-over look...hahah U get it. Somehow them being there gave me the push to overcome the inertia that seemed to have possessed my feet. Everytime I spot a couple my heart's telling me GO! and then my feet grew roots that went deep into the ground....I guess that was comparable to my waitressing days...OK. nah...waitressing was more hellish.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is to those people who waved me away like I was some bug and hurt my pride: I hope your wisdom tooth haunts u at night
Here is to those people who looked up to the sky and din care a hoot about my existence when I was talking to you: I hope u fall down at least once every year.
And here is to you who did my survey and helped a fellow human being, including all my friends: Merry X'mas and I hope you guys stay happy together for a lifetime.
Not forgetting those people who walked pass me and had absolutely nothing to do with me YET smiled at me: I dunno whats ur problem but that was sweet. May u be blessed with excellent teeth.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Btw, this is one song u gotta listen to - Miss Riddle by Boz Scaggs. =)
P/s: If u're a super nice person who's interested in the survey, or know of anyone who does...TAG ME ur email!!! Ha. Okie man. Off u go. Thanks for readin yeah.
