came to sch ard 10 to do my IS enrolment, had to trouble glenn to help me check if was accessible cos i knew i wud be late. thanks loads glenn! and yep got in without any hitch, amazingly. but there were few modules to choose from.. wanted to take social psychology and service innovation but the latter was only available from week 1-7, so had to end up taking global cities. had to enrol real fast cos every time u move away from the particular enrolment page, a slot wud be gone and there were only like 1 or 2 slots for each module. my goodness. count myself lucky. then headed for clubhse, and did some own training and shooting. enjoyed:) preparing for sat's game with coach's friends.. gonna get whacked for sure. so now im sitting in the clubhse blogging. gonna stay home tmr probably. prob if carolyn's not working then will get out of the house or sth. otherwise, a full day at home. i think the situation's quite bad now, as in i can stay home the entire day without speaking a single word to my irritating aunt. considering the constant movement around her, it sounds weird not to be talking to her. yet i totally don't feel like i wana say anything or even listen to her. crap.. it's so pressurizing everywhere. even at home. so much responsibility just cos she doesn't wanna get a maid. argh. so i've to sacrifice my time to look after my gram every single minute of the day. and she'll never get well with all the attention showered on her. i mean who won't want attention and care, it's such a natural want and need. but when u overdo it, u'll kill the person. it's hard to even get out of the house.
had work yesterday, first day of work since my hols started, and shld be the last. one day thing only. did some escorting and helped out at the counter at the world roads conference. how lame can the name get. not too bad, met some nice people, and realised how much we chinese take things for granted, like everything and everybody ought to be at ur dispense. it's disgusting. i really like the way the caucasians actually show that they appreciate ur help, as small as it may be. it really means alot, and i definitely wanna learn this aspect of their culture. that aside, it was pretty much a fine day. i always enjoy meeting delegates:) hah. other than attending to the guests from time to time, carolyn and i were rotting quite abit. had time to even play pictionary. hah.somehow my jokes make me laugh at myself real hard. hah.. and her stupid 'hai de hen duo er zi'. hah.
was dead tired when i got home.. all the walking in the heels got me so tired, instead of the work.. heels are awful. i love shoes and slippers.
oh and i really loved sunday's dinner with my ah ma and aunts. they're all so nice.. despite us not going down to my ah ma's hse often.. it means so much to me when i feel their love. and i know he would be very happy if he was around with us. but i know he's always around:) i was telling my mom on sat bt how much i missed my ahma's spicy minced meat with extra lots of garlic, and on sunday she turned up with what i was wishing for exactly:) and she's always telling my sis and i to let her know if we wanna eat her tom yum soup or pig's heart cooked in ultra delicious rice wine, and she would go to the market, get the stuff and cook before my mom goes down to her place to bring it back for us. that's why she's such a sweetie. she makes me feel so guilty forhurrying my dad and mom back from her place every time we went down when we were young. but what hurts most is how i was told that my gonggong would wait for my family to reach before starting the meal. and i was so reluctant to have dinner at my ah ma's place last time, so knowing this only after he left took me down back then. i just wanna love my ah ma more now.
gonna finish up a book and return soon b4 i get another fine.
