FRIDAY
it was a tiring friday, as i was busy the previous nite making the present for my aunt, whose birthday was on friday (the 13th, well, it seems everything went well... not much significance though). went to sch abit blur blur, but still alert enuf to realise tt they were releasing one of the CA results! well i did ok, though not as well as everyone else... den wanted to hav a insignificant fri afternoon, until i got a call n found tt there was a clinical trial at NUH, which needed research participants. haha i wasn't interested, until my ears pricked at tt $50 reimbursement! haha so yupz went to the clinic to get 8 injections n 16 skin pricks, (allergy testing for allergic rhinitis) n yupz my wallet was fatter. haha. though the pricks itched!!!!
later went to celebrate my aunt's bday at a vegetarian restaurant... well the food was ok lah, cos every yr u eat the same thing @ e same time of the yr... not tt interesting lahz haha but it was a good get-together for the family. plus, this is the first time since my grandma fractured her leg tt she came outta the hse without her wheelchair. everything was perfect till the flaggin of the taxi. cos my grandma couldnt walk far, so we had to hail a taxi near the restaurant, but there was a bus stop w many buses n double yellow line... well u can imagine, esp when the whole road seems congested. my aunt went further up the road to hail the taxi n ask the driver pick up my grandma (n other aunts) at tt point but the driver overshot!! so he had to REVERSE... oh my... but there was a big bus n lotsa cars behind. v v dangerous. so he could only reverse like 5 m, n my grandma had to struggle the remaining 5m with her metal walking frame. the bus looked threatening, for the driver seemed rather impatient, plus the many cars ard.... precarious. yet my grandma couldnt walk any faster. heaved a sigh of relief when she finally got on the cab.
den went to buy webcam for my fren's 21st bday at sim lim. so ex!!! met up w my sec 4 frens (LHY n PSH aka SHIT haha), talked alot, bought the webcam with the usual bickering n finally settled for some ice dessert at ICE MONSTER, a taiwanese like ice cafe... really shiok! haha esp tt mixed fruit ice dessert n the watermelon+lemon+orange juice tt was in the right proportions! went home later n watched TV till 2...
Saturday
Tiring! woke up at 7. did some housework n cleaned the house... cos 2 monkeys staying over later haha. den rushed off to meet my 3 BMT frens! haha really long time did not meet em. All 3 of them are gg to university of new south wales to study medicine!!! haha n believed it was really very fortunate of them, cos i was the one who found out n brought em tog to meet, so tt at least they noe they'd hav classmates tt they already noe!!! haha spoke to em alot abt medicine, n i was also intrigued n got all excited about their study in Australia... how nice if i was gg together with em. v fun!!! hmm well, shld stop day dreaming lahz haha cos 1) really fortunate to get into nus med, n 2) i really hav no $$$ to spend (eh they were telling me it costs up to S$500,000 for their fees n living expenses there. wow!) n it was really good... reminisced the past n of cos, really nice to meet up with em... all my buddies!
den later went to celebrate UY's bday. hmmm... sometimes really get tired of such meetings, esp when it is such a pain to try to organise it... some more the organisation alw falls on my shoulders. the so called organiser this time was rather CMI lahz n i had to try salvage.... well tink is cos the person was rather unwilling to do it... everythin was rather last min, n even the buying present he turned up late. yupz but qt happy tt we bought him rather nice gifts lahz.... a choker with his name engraved, a cool sunglass (though i noe he wanted a watch, but was too sure if he still has/hasnt gotten one) n well cos of this there was abit of disagreement! oh well... still glad tt he liked his present! n bought a "mini mini" cake. loooks nice!
eh the so called organiser wanted to give a surprise last min n gave all the funny excuses n talk tt was like so duh... making it more (!!-_-) den ever, no more surprises... tink UY was more tired den happy... anw... yah had dinner @ ichiban n in total i spent $47 tt day juz for treating him dinner n present haha so ex.... really no $$ liaoz... all my sacrifice in pricking myself with 24 pricks on fri has gone down the drain... haiz
