all in a day's work

9am pow wow session at ikea.

as i drag my feet to ikea from queenstown station, i fantasize about the breakfast menu and what hearty swedish delights will entice my tastebuds this morning. i arrive at ikea 10mins before 9 (i've been amazingly early since i started work, while the other two arrive at almost 10 everyday).

j dressed in the top that i have, troops in 15mins later. however, my attention wasn't on the familiar top, it was on the gucci bag she has in tow. a new one no less. which begs me to ask exasperatingly,"fwah lau eh. another one?"


if you are keeping count, it's:

3 LV bags
4 Gucci bags
1 LV Wallet
1 Gucci Wallet
1 Cartier watch
and the most recent addition, a Tag Heuer Monaco


*peers at my fake balenciaga bag*
sigh, i need a raise.


i want i want i want i want i waaant

A Letter

Dearest Facility,

How have you been? I heard things aren't going that well with the in-laws. My sincere condolences to your in-laws.

I'm sorry that you are only able to gush at the baby calender your thoughtful sister-in-law (SIL) got you and not at a real oh-my-gosh-he-is-so-cuuute baby of your own. We all know how much you love babies.

I'm disappointed to find out that you did not invite me to the bitchfest you've been organising in conjunction with the one your spouse is holding. Heard that you two were battling for your mother-in-law's attendance to the not so exclusive festival. Man, she must have felt so comfortable in the position you two put her in.

Oh, how's your weight management? I hope you've managed to lose the pounds you've always wanted to. But alas, reliable sources have told me you are far from reaching your ideal figure. Do not depress! I'm sure you will find ways to console yourself. You know like put down your slender and youthful SIL.

Speaking of your SIL, remember how you used to treat her like your own? Yeah, whatever happened to that? Is it the hormone pills you've been taking or do you just need someone younger to pick on to make yourself feel better? Maybe you should carry your non-authentic fake luxury bag and go hang out with your not-so-pretty friends, because that's what SIL does (except that she actually carries a authentic fake luxury bag (which is much much better made) and hangs out with drop-dead gorgeous girls with fantastic personalities to boot). Never mind girl, because according to you, she's gonna look hagard very soon with that super slim face of hers. You know what, you should just binge more and puff up your face so much that you will never encounter that problem!

Before i end off, have I ever told you I absolutely adore your name. It's like so totally easy to recall! And it runs off the tongue so smoothly, as if i'm reciting the multiples of two. I'm sure your father-in-law would agree with me since he's been calling you Facility since Day One.

Write to me soon yar? Unless of course you are too busy plotting against your next victim.


XOXOXO

i have become the ugly friend of the pretty girl.

so. as many of you know, a certain member of the family is currently teaching at the college we all went to. not surprisingly, she knows many of the teachers that used to teach us. i just don't know who she's talking to:

her: "oh! you know, none of the teachers in College remembers your name, haha."
me: (i know that was a blatant lie, because our ex history/council teacher and my lit teacher have spoken about me with her before) "is it? really? i low profile mah."
her: "yah! but when i describe ExFriend they know who she is leh!"
me: "...mmf."
her: "and THEN they go: OHHH... you talking about the one always with the sweet sweet pretty girl, is it? yeah i think i remember her."

somebody shoot me. or shoot her. or shoot us both. i will not be the pretty girl's ugly sidekick! grargh!

don't this bring back memories for u, angel? :D

Hello, my name is XXX. I am a fresh man. My matriculation number is UXXXXXXX.

I want to ask, where can I appeal? I want to learn English in semester 1 because my English is so bad.

Because I am lucky enough to get QET Band 4 and I have to learn ES1301 in semester 2.

However, if I learn English in semester 2, I will not handle the heavy academic load in semester 1.

So could you help me to pre-allocate ES1301 to my course? I am really eager to study English in semester 1. Thanks.

At last, my contact number is XXXXXXXX.

hahaha i love this guy. *pinch*

i know what u guys mean when u say they have the same sense of humour.

ok my prof from ntu is called prof zb, and this was an email that i was supposed to send to thank him, but i passed it by alvin first...

below is his version:

-----------------------------------------------------
Dear Z to the B,

Alvin and I would like to thank you for allowing us to undergo training at your lab. The training provided was really useful, and puts us in great stead to continue our research in NUS. We're currently beginning cultures in NUS while trying to adhere to the techniques taught to us as closely as possible, and we hope that we'll soon be able to proceed to doing the microarray stages
back at NTU
Thanks, once again, and we hope that we did not impose too much on you.

Cheerios, Z to the B!
V to the I to the V to the I to the E to the N and Alvin

-------------------------------------------------------------

sydney n vaughn were gonna get married

then just as they were driving, vaughn says he's got stg to tell sydney coz he doesn't want secrets between them

sydney says 'well as long as you're not gonna tell me you're one of the bad guys.'

then she gives the haha face

vaughn turns to her and says 'well, it depends on which perspective you're looking at.'

sydney goes serious and gives him the 'OMG, WHAT.' look

vaughn says 'it wasn't a coincidence i was your handler when you left sd6. and neither a coincidence when i came along and told you about sd6.'

my mother

altho' i am a fan of gayle nerva (from singapore idol, who's already out of the competition), i must admit that she kinda reminds me of our used-to-be-very-close friend who now only contacts us when her bday is nearing. you know who i'm talking about.

me: i like gayle! but i think she looks like ExFriend.
mum: HUH! ExFriend is so much prettier!
me: .... hmm... okay la...
mum:*on a roll* ExFriend is so sweet! and she's such a good girl! she's so nice, and so... just so sweet! so much sweeeeeter and prettier than gayle....

she actually continued, but i stopped listening after the third "sweet".

i know some of you guys may find this story slightly familiar, but it just happened again, during this week's Singapore Idol. NOW i really wanna show her the pictures i found of ExFriend online.

mum: why aren't you close to ExFriend anymore huh? she's such a good influence.

ohhhhhhhhhhhh if only she knew. *bites back tongue*
