i did it again. i skipped my first lecture yesterday, felt really bad as it was the oh-so-cute mr seah teaching... but oh well. skipping i guess is better akin to getting told infront of the whole class to try to catch up.. so i went to the library, read the papers and planned out what i had to do for the upcoming ICAs..there's just so many. i wonder how and where i should start from. maybe the dateline of the emceeing project is a hint that i should start there first. today morning, at 0645, as i was hitting my alarm's snooze button for the second time, an sms came in..and guess what, our lovely teacher smsed "i'm sorry, on mc today, tutorial's cancelled. please inform the class" and i'm like fucking bollocks. how the hell was i supposed to inform like 30people before they step out of the house. so i called those that stayed a lil further and thank god, managed to catch them before they left for school. thanks to manda and habez for helping to spread the word. i wouldn't be able to get the message across to everyone if i had to do it myself. so. as the saying goes. the first time will never be the last time. so yeah. i skipped another school event again. this time it's our orientation finale, something which is compulsory but, well. i decided not to go. didn bother getting an sms as well as loads of people told it ain't worth it.. sheesh. i wanna skip yet i can't help getting paranoid. i'm such a loser. oh ya. the labour day weekend was greeaat. i went shopping with mummy dearest and i bought 3pairs of shoes from Novo ( all made out of rubber) and a pair of knee-length shorts which so fits me to the T. i seldom look good in shorts so i made myself get it. and i'm glad i did or i would so regret it. before my shopping trip i went for brunch with mummy and sis at four seasons hotel. the bill was $230 for 2adults and 1child. i can't help but think, what a rip off. seriously, at least it was for me. the food was not to my taste as it was mainly those cold oysters..prawns..lobsters. and seriously, i never ever like the taste of cold seafood. i wonder how can people actually say it tastes fresh when it actually, in my opinion, tastes revolting even if covered fully with sauce. They also served alot of those fusion cuisine which i as well, don't like. so. i guess. it was a waste for my mom to bring me to such a place.. but anyway. to be fair, i shan't completely slag them off right? i must mention some of their good stuff too! they serve alot of nice desserts there. seriously divine stuff. like those nutella macrooons and the chocolate pralines...and the caramel custards. they also had this free-flow fruit juice and cocktail thing going on. the cocktails were good, i'm a sucker for cocktails. so yeah...without the desserts and the drink, i guess the brunch buffet would absolutely suck. In my opinion, i would so rather go for the dinner buffet and orchard hotel. they serve stuff like pepper or chilli crabs there.. and there's this booth which serves drunken prawns. and their prawns are like live ones..so when you want a bowl, the chef just scoops the prawns up and cooks them...cruel i know but they're really really yummy. and the buffet's like half the price of brunch at four seasons! *regrets* Oh. there's a reason why i love shopping at mango,warehouse and zara too. not only for the designs and of course, the brand, they offer very good after-sales services. like my purple top. one of the strings lining the bust area of the top ran after a wash, and i actually brought it back to see if they could do anything about it. they actually offered to take my piece and send it to the factory for some hemming and mending. F.O.C. it's definitely money worth spending. i mean. if you were to buy a top, say, at far east for $30. if the seam runs and u take it back, i guess the sales girl would most probably just tell you to bugger off. i'm typing this entry at cm's place. i'm in such a lazy mood. still feel like going back to bed. sheesh. i guess one can never get too much sleep in my case.. heh. lazy me. oh ya. cindy. if you're reading this. don't buy maybeline's mascara la. buy lancome. from me. i swear, you'll be pleased with what the lancome mascara can give u. it's award winning lah! sure won't disappoint.. come visit me one day and try it out k? |
