Taking a Break
From my bloody assignment. Not exactly hungry but ate some vegetables and a braised egg. I don't know, I think I eat to make myself feel better. After that, I'll just force myself to vomit, it's a sick cycle. And I thought I've battled bulimia. (Secret's out, ha! But I don't really care now.)
Everything isn't going well this week. My uncle's wife is terminally ill and at the last stage of cancer. So yeah, she might just leave any time. Took a day off school because mum experienced faint spells at home. She was okay but also Doc advised her to do a pap smear cos she hadn't done any during the last two years.
Had my chicken pox vaccination (yeah I know, at 20 years old?!) cos I was in the clinic with her, so might as well, you know. So yup the only happy thing I have to announce is that I, Pauline Tan, will never ever have chicken pox for the rest of my life. Have to go back for the second jab on 21st Jul.
Laptop died on me. Still checking whether there's any warranty of any sort cos it wasn't me who bought it. So all my saved formats of assignment, research, etc are now pretty much as existent as a dinosaur.
Printer/scanner died on me too. Just when I need to scan a picture to slot into the appendix of my assignment.
Thought I lost my wallet, searched high and low for it, even my mum joined in the search (she's one formidable force!) but couldn't find it. I even went down to ask the auntie at the coffee shop (had dinner the day before over there) whether she found any wallet.
And when I've given up hope and thinking to myself, why must I suay suay lose my IC on 25ths? [The last (and also first) time I lost my IC was on 25th April 2006.] And then I just lifted this particular cushion up and my wallet was there.
I almost cried.
I don't know, if you read this, and you've a religion of some sort, please pray for me. I think I'm going crazy very very soon.
So tempted to drink my Chivas, now.

At T1 right now, baby's finally coming back, allll the way from Kaoshiung! No more countdowns, no more cooking IndoMie when I want supper, no more loneliness when I need someone to talk to. 00:47 right now and that's about an hour away from his arrival. Argh, I can't wait. If you're not in the mood for a wordy post, pls stop here. Cos I'm going to ramble on just like that while munching on the heavenly onion rings.
This is my first time eating outside alone. I guess this is what you get what you start to age, you get lonelier and lonelier. All the excuses (or reasons, whichever your perspective) of hanging out together don't exist now.
You don't need to do "school projects" now, so there's no need to go to the library/someone's house after school/followed by gratifying Long John Silver's (oh how I miss JP's mee hoon kuey)
"Recess" is now really old-school so yepp no more of that intimate 20 minutes chat about everything and anything under the sun.
Ugh just these two points are enough to make me feel depressed.
Let's sidetrack a little. The auntie who served me just now is named Pauline! I wanted to take a snapshot of her nametag but there was a long queue behind.
Okay, forty minutes away now from his arrival.
Oh we had an early birthday celebration for Jask and I'm gonna upload the pics to the blog once I get home. Mmm, make that once I'm "free".
Though I'm studying in a private institution right now but the workload is enough to kill me. And I'm having this sorta weird lil crush for one of my lecturer. Why weird you ask. He looks like a cross between Kumar and Wolverine. And he has lots of chest hair which is slightly disturbing but erotic in a way too.
God help me. What am I talking about here. I think I'm deprived.
And now there is another batch of people coming back from Kaoshiung and I assume that they're all armyboys too cos they.. you know.. JUST LOOK LIKE IT.
Okay think I should stop here cos I can't wait to see whether my boy's one of the army boys. Just in case, you know. Have a happy Tuesday!
