Wasn't quite in the mood to blog today, in fact haven't had the urge to blog at all this week, but F_ kind of left me in a rut of sorts (headache/drowsiness 5 mins after asking me to play wc with him) cos i was playing d2/icqing/surfing net and then he asked me to play with him and i closed all the internet windows and shut down my game, and now I'm stuck here with nothing to do, and not sleepy enough to go to bed yet. Went down to get some pomelo and drinks just now, now my stomach isn't making weird rumbly noises, but I hope I don't have to pay for it by waking up every two hrs to go shit, which is what happened yesterday. Yup, the ten dollar oyster omelette binge F_ and I had on monday has given us both diahorrhea, but F_ has progressed from diahorrhea to vomitting now (from one end to the other, literally)and I don't know which is worse. But anyways he says he shat a big manly chunk of shit just now, and wants to work out tmr, so that's good, cos both of us haven't been to the gym this whole week. But of course the diahorrhea is preventing us from digesting anything so we're not getting fat either. Teehee.
Incidentally, F_ told me just now that coke without the fizz is an effective cure for diahorrhea. Interesting. Maybe I'll try it, if it doesn't stop.
Oh boy, wanted to blog about other stuff but after talking to pok i just forgot what i wanted to blog and i think that's enough about shit and speaking of shit i need to shit so i'll be off, i think.

Uh-oh. F_'s comp just blew a fuse. He left it on overnight, and just now when he turned it on the thing made a gigantic "pok" sound and died. Poor F_! And it's really very ironic as well cos just this afternoon he told me that he wanted to play wc wif me, as he put it, his "first wc game in a very long time". Sigh. Hope he can get it repaired soon. I think he uses the comp much more than i do.
Parents are coming back today!! Yay! Dad told me over the phone last night that he'd picked out a pink blouse for me, "reddish-pink, solid pink, dear, not ugly pastel pink" and proceeded to dispense some fatherly advice to justify his purchase "don't care about what people say, dear, pink is NOT a bimbotic colour". ROTBL (B=bed) after hanging up, cos every monday practically all the girls in med fac wear pink (except me, that is, but I know that W_z would say that i'm not counted. he insinuated as much during frs when we were talking about comp games...big BAH to that) I suspect they wear pink to combat the monday blues. Wahaha. (And in my subconscious a suspiciously F_-like voice goes "laughing at your own jokes again, eh?")
Apparently Mom got me some stuff too. Ahhh, the joys of parents-shopping-in-HK. Going to airport to pick them up in an hr or so, together wif EE and poksters, who is busy playing d2 with his classmate (over pvpgn, of course) and giving monosyllabic answers to my questions. Haha he attended some rg choir concert last night cos one of his ex-classmates, who was performing, bought him a ticket without telling him in advance, and without his asking her to, and then made him pay for it, thus forcing him to go. Muahahaha. Ingenious way of selling tickets.
Today was loads of fun! Went to watch S2 in the morning wif F_ (finally!!!) Absolutely hilarious! Was remarking to F_ after that that I wouldn't mind watching it again with my family, but when I came home I discovered that both sibs had already watched it, and today at that! Poksters watched it at orc, not bish, where I watched wif F_, otherwise I'd probably have bumped into him, cos he watched a 12pm show and I watched a 11.40am one. He thinks puss was damn cute, so do I! And I'm a sucker for his adorable "don't hurt me" look, cos when F_ did it to me I just had to lean over to kiss him, and the evil twit went "Haha! Tricked ya!" Bah.
After the show, I was damn hungry (I think my gastric juices got stirred up during the scene where Mr. and Mrs. S were dining with her parents) so we had teppanyaki at the food court, which was yummy and satisfying as usual :) F_, ever so sweet, offered to do some throws with me after that, seeing as how I have training tmr morning (which he also kindly offered to attend, but he's gonna fix his comp tmr too, so we'll see). On the way back to my place, we had ice-cream and he showed me where westlake was, so that in future I can take bus there and back, cos training's at 10am and parents usually attend church at that time, so I probably hafta make my own way there. Except for tmr, cos mom'll probably be too tired to go to church, which is why dad offered to bring me for breakfast and then drop me off at training. Incidentally, F_ also offered to bring me to training. I'm so blessed to be surrounded by such sweet, wonderful, loving men.
Went to my house to procure the necessary equipment (2 gloves, a bat and a ball) and we set out for a longer-than-expected trek to this field, which used to be great for sports and doggie-sdu-parties but now is rather crapped up cos they planted trees all over the field, probably to prevent said illegal activities. F_ got a wonderful tan, looking sexy with jeans and no shirt, and I got a whole lot of wonderful bug-bites. Haha. Dunno why, but if there's a mosquito in a room and there's just me and another person, I'm always the one getting bitten. Got sthg to do with my complexion, methinks. So darned attractive to mosquitoes.
I think F_ has pretty good psychomotor skills, cos he picked up the basics of throwing and fielding and batting quickly. In fact, I'm so rusty I think my fielding is worse than his :P Should get him a wig and make him stand in for me during fielding. Despite the mosquitoes, we had a fun time there, and I'm thankful that F_ suggested it, cos now I feel as if I've got my throwing arm back. Yay! Batting shouldn't be a problem, I hope. Heh. Anyway my team-mates know I haven't touched a softball in ages so they'll be understanding. Looking forward to training tmr!
When the mosquitoes got too much for me, I decided to call it a day, and F_ walked me back to my house, before returning to his. Darling F_...
The great thing about a blog, is, now I can use it to check when season started last year. Though if what F_ says is correct, i.e. in May, then they may have pushed back this year's season. So weird. Oh well.

Beauty that made this heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You

Just woke up and had a lousy dinner (after this afternoon's lunch at newton dinner's bound to be a let down anyways). Today was a tiring day, to say the least. Morning F_ had driving test, after that we went to hit the gym. Under F_'s encouragement (? or shld i say duress) I managed an additional round to bring the total to 2.4km. Yay. Felt like i'd achieved something, so virtually skipped weights and went to soak in his pool and jacuzzi (itchy back! heh) which is the best thing to do after a hot run in da gym. After bathing we headed to newton asap, it being 3+pm, and proceeded to wolf down two plates of hokkien mee, ice kacang and sugar cane. Too bad many stores were closed, including our anticipated oyster egg and lobster/stingray, but F_ says we'll be going back there for dinner soon, so yay! Perfect timing as usual, caught mohd as he was on the way to bishan to pick up pok from 3rd lang, so after dropping F_ off and picking pok up, went home for a well-earned nap (which went on for 3 hrs till 9pm)
Tmr F_ wants to go gym again, I say aye to that! Trust me, it's really weird to *not* run after running practically everyday before that. The running is almost like a daily ritual of sorts. It's a ritual of self-conflict. It starts out with everything nice and rosy till 1k, when the stitch starts to hit, and then from 1.2 all the way to the end it's a battle of wills against myself, the continual "can i do it? yes i can do it! no..i'm dying...i'll stop at the next lap" and just trying to distract myself (DON'T look at the numbers, look at the pool!) from the pain in my side (sometimes, alarmingly, over my left chest and shoulder) until the magic number is reached and I can stop forcing myself. It's like torturing myself on a daily basis, but thankfully it only lasts for about 15mins or so, and the feeling after that (runner's high, the cool shower, and the feeling that you've achieved something and am now super-fit) is always worth the trouble. Oh well, it sure is nice to be a jock again, after all that geeking out in med school. To qualify as 'athelete' as opposed to mere 'gym rat'... Now for softball training to commence...

Hey-ho. Quick update here.
Sunday Met F_ at 11 for gym, managed 2k again (yipee!) despite not having any breakfast. F_ runs better on an empty stomach, my optimum is 3hrs after a meal :) Cos for me without a source of fuel I have no energy. I'm a ferrari, brroooom brrrooom (and all around the room, eyebrows are raised) F_ decided that his bod was sufficiently buff and unflabulous, so after bathing (without a towel, bah!) i came out of the toilet to see his grinning face bobbing up from the pool (#%@$%*$%) So anyway I'm gonna bring my swimsuit along from now on. Incidentally, the grapeseed shower gel which I got him is fantastic! (if i may say so myself) After using it my hair feels softer and shinier! And I could actually comb it without yanking at it with my hairbrush *gasp* Shampoo advert aside, I wanna get a bottle for myself! Not only does it smell good it's so handy to bring, rather than my usual triad of hotel soap, shampoo and face wash. Bah. Oh well see if it goes on sale or sthg. There's usually at least one item on sale at body shop.
Feeling all fresh and fit (and macho, on F_'s part at least) we went to north pt. for macs burger & sundae (mmm). F_ was on a diet and refused to eat anything. Also found this really cute belt at the giordano opposite, it's white and the holes are diagonal. costs 20 bucks tho. Gotta save up to get it i guess. After that we had 1 hr to kill, so we went to this huge popular upstairs, which had a gigantic toys section (play-doh!) Then we took mrt to F_'s driving centre, and I killed time by listening to my ipod (oh my handy, trusty ipod) and finishing up interesting times, which was real fun to read and a bag of laughs (i don't care what my sister says). F_ emerged from his lesson happy and feeling knowledgeable, and we headed back to north pt for a swensens chef's salad (he also got me my fave lip gloss! which was finally on sale and VERY cheap...heh)then headed home for we'd both slept late the night before, and it had been a long day.
Monday
Met same place same time again, but despite bringing everything this time (i.e. towel and swimwear included) we ended up cuddling and singing (yessss singing!) which just goes to show that we can always find something fun to do together. Yay. Feeling rather guilty but ravenous, we headed over to sicc for an extremely satisfying larding experience. The soup of the day, despite having the unappealing and deliberately ambiguous name of 'vegetable soup', was really yummy, and the pineapple fried rice, served in generous, mountainous portions, was delicious as always, except there was an extra bit of chilli this time, but that was a good thing cos otherwise we'd have wolfed down our food too quickly, it being already 3pm and all that (didn't seem to have stopped F_ tho..haha) Felt very very bloated after that, caught mohd on the way to bishan wif sis (perfect timing) and after depositing said sibling at 3rd lang, proceeded to make a hasty visit to his place. Got to sit on his porcupine *yay* which is soooo adorable! (In case you're wondering, no, it didn't burst when I sat on it) Glad I got it for him...Haha now I want one too :P Anyway, he lent me 3 pratchett books, which I started to peruse on the way back, and I'm hooked already! He's watching frens now, so I'll be reading them, and waiting for his call...Despite taking a 2-hr nap after coming home, already feel very sleepy..Yawnz...
Tmr's his driving test, will be picking him up so that he won't have to worry about waiting for the bus and being late...Been praying every night that he'll pass! Will leave it in God's hands...
Well F_ if you're reading this tonight, go sleep early k? I love you! :x :x :x

Blogging at F_'s command...heh :) Happy to do so. Today was really eventful, starting with a prick in the cubital fossa at science park (blood test for cholestrol levels, etc) which I actually welcomed cos I was forbidden to eat before that (would cause inaccurate results and such), and was ravenous and dying for lunch. Sis was damn scared so we forced her to go first so she'd quit whining. My family was strangely impressed by the fact that I didn't avert my face when my blood was being taken. Trust me, I didn't do it to impress anybody...I've never averted my face before, it's just this morbid fascination with watching the needle go in and then the dark-red blood filling up the little test-tube with the unclenching of the fist.
Anyway, we were all damn hungry so we sped over to esplanade for a good ol' jap buffet. They'd upped the price by abit, but they were liberal with the salmon sashimi so that kind of made up for it. After that parents bribed us with yoghurt so that we'd go with them to this gigantic watch shop in millenia walk. Mom's considering getting the world's smallest technical watch (i.e. requires winding). It's very thin, and rectangular, and the face is really small and you can flip the face around. It's kindda hard to describe, gotta see it for yourself.
After reaching home hurriedly packed my stuff and headed to coro busstop to meet F_ for gym, managed to do 2km this time (improvement! yay!) before the stitch got so bad i had to stop. Working out made us really hungry so we decided to head over to jelita for their new pizza which has super nice toppings and crust..mmmm just thinking about it is making me hungry...Also, after much persuasion from F_, decided to join rebels this year so messaged my capt, but there wasn't training this week and season hadn't started, so good, at least i'm not too late for registration :) While I was in the toilet F_ got me a beautiful sunflower, which realy made my day!! F_ is so sweet...I love him so :x
Merrily carrying mr. flower, with F_ singing in that sexy tenor of his (finally found out what constituted 'tenor' and 'bass'...sheesh ) we walked all the way to buona vista mrt to top up our cards, both of which had run out on the same day, causing some embarrassment aboard the bus to jelita. It was a long walk, but an enjoyable one nonetheless, just revelling in each other's company and being gay. The gentle breeze and the dim streetlights made the walk prossibly our most romantic stroll ever, and we were enjoying it so much we decided to walk all the way home, making a detour into oei tiong hiam park on the way and finally hopping into a taxi outside coro west. Despite the footsoreness, F_ gamely decided to hit the gym again on sunday.

I realised today what I ought to have realised a long time ago, and that is on days with exams we always want to celebrate after that, but we're actually too tired from the previous night's mugging to stay out for long. I think this applies to everybody, and especially to me, cos I'm always burning the wee-hours-of-the-morning oil. So I think the best thing to do, the best compromise (uh the word reeks of this morning's exam)is to go and catch a movie. It's passive and doesn't require any energy whatsover (except the bit where you have to get to the cinema but well thank goodness for the escalator) and if it's a particularly good one, you still feel as if you've enjoyed yourself very much and had a huge celebration befitting the post-examinational euphoria.
Well, that's just what F_ and I did after a rather inane exam which, for me, consisted entirely of rapid transcription of information from notes to exam script. Went to watch troy, which was a darn long movie (3hrs!). I thought it was pretty good, except for the part where my fingers fell off from frostbite, and I discovered an extra hole in my shirt, but then again I'm a sucker for epics like lotr, and movies with men in skirts like gladiator. Ahhhhh now F_ thinks I'm a freak! (not like he didn't already ;) The purported "face which could launch a thousand ships" didn't quite live up to my expectations (truth is, i was half-expecting a brunette, but nvm) but well maybe standards of beauty at that time were pretty low, or the casting people exceeded their budget after roping in pitt (looking spectacularly stupid in his death scene, like he'd choked on a pretzel) bana and bloom (legolaasss! ripoff!) However, I must congratulate the casting team on their choice of bloom as the parisian wuss, he's probably the second wussiest-looking guy in the world after frodo/EW.
Ahh, flipped through the papers after dinner and discovered that yet another must-watch movie is coming out...next thursday, to be precise. S2!!! Shit I could watch S1 over and over again and still find it funny. Yaywheewoohoo.
Over dinner Dad kindly informed me that this would be my last meal...before the blood test which is at 11.30am tmr cos they're testing cholestrol levels (!!) so I guess a midnight snack might be in order....yawn...if i don't fall asleep first that is...the trick is to keep myself awake till really late tonight then wake up 5 mins before it's time to leave and voila! No hunger pangs.
F_ and I planning to hit the gym tmr afternoon. About time too, I think. Raring to run again. Don't ask me why. Once you start running, it becomes a habit then it's weird *not* to do it. I guess technically I could do all that running at home, but I haven't, cos it just ain't as fun without F_ around, plus the $2 gym fee is an incentive to not slack. Heh.
Oh yah, last night F_ invited me to join his blog. Wow I feel so honoured. Posted 2 trial posts already, wouldn't mind posting more but it's kind of weird if i do cos nobody else has posted yet, and F_ owns the blog and I shouldn't flood it with too many of my posts.
Crap lah. Yawning my head off. Took a half-hour nap before dinner, was reading interesting times before that. Obviously not enough. Aiyoh I'm starting to blog stupid stuff so I better stop here before blogger shuts down my blog.

to F_, in commemoration of our one-year anniversary :
Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words hold my hand
In other words darling kiss me
Fill my life with song
And let me sing forevermore
You are all I hope for
All I worship and adore
In other words please be true
In other words I love you
Feeling rather lethargic right now. Must be the heat. Also yesterday's running and the fun after that, drawing and playing the gu zheng and violin and cuddling and looking into each other's eyes and knowing that we love each other, and that somehow or other nothing else really matters and feeling so contented if only time could have stood still, but no, the sky darkens and the clock strikes 8pm and gastric juices are awakened and then paradise lost.
Sitting in younger bro's room right now, burning cds into my pod and blogging the time away. Tmr there's some stupid exam, but then again there's troy and bible study and him, so i'm just lazing this day away and looking forward to the next. On the table beside me is a pile of notes teaching us how to communicate and resolve conflicts and maybe I need that, my eyes are still swollen and painful from tuesday's crying, but on the other hand I think the Bible has so much more to offer on how to live, and how to love. I'm at Acts now. I read whichever book catches my fancy, read Ecclesiastes on tuesday and it makes so much sense my head is still reeling from it. Everything is meaningless, a mere chasing after the wind. God's gift to Man is to find satisfaction and pleasure in his toil. If those notes are teaching me how to "handle" and manipulate people, I don't want to read it. I don't play games.
Just reached over and twiddled the radio to the oldies station F_ and I were enjoying yesterday. When my usual "teen" station started playing songs with inane titles like "the 8th world wonder" (!!) figured it was time to change station. Besides, they were playing such nice songs yesterday. Or maybe it was cos I was with F_. It's hard to be objective when he's around.
Monday, May 10, 2004
Whee~~ Like yesterday, I'm so happy I don't really feel the need to blog, but on the other hand today is our anniversary so it'd be great to write down the events of today for posteriety. Thought nothing could top yesterday, but today was so special! Admittedly we didn't stay out as late as I thought we would, due to the 2 bottles of vodka ice (55% alc) we consumed, which caused F_ to feel abit nauseous+itchy+lethargic, but it was wonderful, all the same. But I'm getting ahead of myself.
Well first up, there was horrible school. F_ later told me that he'd woken up extra early to go to ghim moh to get flowers for me but the florists weren't open (wahhh!) so no pretty flowers for me. Still, he deserves a big I LOVE YOU for trying :x After the first lecture, we decided that enough was enough (today being our special day and all, kindda stupid to spend it in school till 4.30) so we made off in a taxi to an undisclosed location where alcohol was sold and had a nice quiet celebratory drinking session. And also some cuddling, of course. I miss cuddling with F_. So rarely get privacy to ourselves. So that took up most of the day and by the time we left (stalled for awhile by my handbag strap which for no reason decided to snap itself into two - he fixed it back, clever F_) it was 3pm and time for brunch (we hadn't consumed anything since waking, except vodka and that ain't too filling) so we headed down to orc for the suckiie sushi buffet (ok the food wasn't too bad, in fact the agedashi tofu was really delicious, but the service was, to put it nicely, atrocious) F_ and I were rather pissed off by the annoying and arrogant prat of a waiter, so we did a little EDS...Details shall not be revealed (ricericericerice), but anyway if you ever visit the orc suckiie sushi branch, don't sit at the table with the broke computer next to the kitchen. You have been warned.
After our evil exploits, F_ and I rolled down to taka, where we proceeded to walk around the place in an aimless manner, just chit-chatting and enjoying our time together. Eventually we found a bench, but by then F_ wasn't looking too good so we decided to save the rest of the day's plans for another day (movie+outtadapan) and head home. I wanted to give F_ his prezzies (the only hedgehog you can sit on+pleather+grapeseed shower gel) so we took a cab to my place, etc. So today was fun.
Well, since I'm blogging, might as well mention that yesterday F_ and I went to the rj movegroove thingsie. Met a couple of friends there, juniors and contemporaries, F_ met his fave teacher ("aiyoh put on weight ah!") and his buddy, and we stayed to watch some millionaire-esque competition which was actually a cover for "Singapore's most obnoxious Rafflesian" but I digress. Incidentally, I never saw F_ blush so hard before (refer to comment by fave teacher, possibly not fave teacher anymore). After that we escaped to the air-con comfort of suntec (it was an insanely hot day). F_, ever the sweetest, brought me down to esplanade where they had put up some balloons near the merlion. We tried to take some pics with his new T610, but could only get little dots. But his camera is still so darn fun to play with! Too bad it's filled with incriminating pics of me (e.g. "stuffing" my mouth next to a 14-plate pile-up at suckii's) Anywaaaay, we went back to suntec for a x-talk lunch (yum) and then to church (surprise! oh sweet darling F_!) for the 4th service. Yesterday's sermon was really good, F_ said so too! Yay! After service we went to the florist to get a sunflower (which they cut, so it was henceforth known as "the big wonker") for his aunt and a pink rose for my mom. F_ got a giant heart-shaped cookie for his mom, which came in an adorable heart-shaped box. Then we hurried home to celebrate mother's day.
Mom was happy with the rose, we had already had the celebratory dinner on saturday, and given her a photo albulm filled with wacky pictures and captions of us 3 kids and Dad, so there wasn't any celeb thingsie yesterday. I came home in time for some left-over hokkien mee from newton (family was finishing dinner). Later, I logged onto msn downstares so that kor could wish mom happy mother's day and i think that made her day even more than the rose did, so that was great too.
Well, that's all I guess. It's been a very eventful & fun two days indeed.
Today I got the one thing I've been wanting to do for a long time, done i.e. visit the hairdresser's. Fringe getting heavy and irritating and eliminating the use of my right eye. Also hair getting too thick and unruly. Changed hairdressers today, went to the sicc one. More on that later. Also replenished my toiletries - toothpaste, soap, pads, etc. Yay. Whee. Woo-hoo. Boy am I glad F_ is the only one who reads this. Otherwise I would never dare to blog such personal / mundane stuff. Incidentally, F_ has decided to move his blog cos it's getting too popular. I say, good move pal! Now he'll have Freedom to Blog!!! Instead of having to pander to the masses and watching your SPG etc. So sian. So much better to have a private blog where you can talk all sorts of crap and don't give a damn about offending people or keeping them interested. More diary-ish than newspaper column-ish. I like it this way :) Plus I can say stuff like I love you F_!!! and it ain't embarrassing in the least. Heh.
Went to school at 10am, was yawning my head off unabashedly throughout the session, which horrors of horrors! ended only at 1.30pm. Perfectionists...Bah!
Such a pity cos my group really is full of nice people. Too bad we're so damn inefficient.
Brought sis to coro for chicken rice after cos she din haf any lunch at home, had a nice chat with her, catch up with her nefarious activities. I have been talking to pok quite a bit, especially after helping him with maths in the library, but cons is usually msn-ing on the downstares comp so I rarely get to have a nice chit-chat with her. Oh well. They're busy people, my sibs, they are.
Incidentally, F_ took down his blog, and is now conjoint owner of a new blog with his 2 frens. I reserve comment on this.
Hair Lair
Once you've visited one saloon, you've seen them all. First the gay hairstylist, highly sought after by tai-tais the world over, who does the actual grunt work. Secondly, the ubiquitous "extra" over-the-hill mama-san type, lounging around, guffawing with the tai-tais, doesn't actually possess any hair-cutting skills and whose primary function is plaguing the unsuspecting customer with "manicure? pedicure? foot massage?" The one at sicc (bright red highlights, fussy clothes and big hair) shot a "you have big natural curls. Ever heard of rebonding?" at me. Felt like telling her "Ever heard of liposuction?" But I figured she probably has some control over the gay stylist and I didn't want to end up with a crew cut so I politely declined (DON'T shake your head while somebody is cutting your hair)
Incidentally, the mama-san at my previous saloon provided, amongst the above-mentioned services, earshit-removal service. According to the poster, they stick a candle in your ear (the end without the wick), and then light the wick. supposedly draws the shit out of your ears. Haven't seen anyone try it yet tho. Wonder why.
Anyway, I think I'll be sticking to this new saloon, mama-san and gays notwithstanding, cos I got a better cut at 30 bucks less ($18 vs the usual $48), plus it's nearer my house and has good parking and after that I can jump into the pool and have a swim and let my little hair-bits clog up the swimming pool filtration system and scare the little children and the adults will say "Oh no! There is seaweed in the pool..Again!!" Oh happy day.
Tuesday, May 04, 2004
Very full now. Parents just bought shui2 gao2 from the market for me, delicious! But also very filling. Hope it gets digested by noon, or I'll get a stitch while running again. Been working out at F_'s gym recently, it has 2 treadmills (which is great, cos I can run with him and it's always good to have a running companion to pace yourself) plus free weights and a nice weight machine, etc. Usually we work out for an hr, then bathe at the public toilets next door. Ideally, I would work out everyday, cos then I'd be super-fit, but because 1)F_ is busy and occasionally 2) muscle ache occurs therefore we haven't been working out all that much. In fact, last week we only went once. I think taking all factors into consideration, if F_ and I are serious about getting fit and losing weight, then we should try our best to hit the gym at least 3 times a week. I'll ask him later and see what he says.
I just realized that I'm quite busy this week, but it's the good kind of busy, not the hectic cannot-get-enough-sleep kind of busy. Today I'm picking F_ up from his place and going to the gym with him. Wednesday I haf to go to school for group work (sian..) if F_ doesn't want to meet up tmr then I'll try to get a slot with the hairdresser's. Thursday will be a fun day for the both of us, looking forward to it. First of all, he's going to be presenting, then having driving lesson, which i'll be accompanying him to, then we'll go for bible study! yay! Then friday there's more presentation in the morning (maybe work out after that? we'll see...) Saturday he's getting a new phone (double yay!! for him) so he'll be with his aunt, who is sponsoring the hp. Dad just told me over breakfast that he'll be bringing me and sibs to take blood test on that day, cos we've been on *that* pill for quite a few months, and it can cause liver damage. Sunday F_ is going to meet his friends at the movengroove thingsie at our alma mater and I'll be tagging along, should be fun too :)
I'd buy loads of fresh flowers, sunflowers and roses, and put them all over my room. That has always been a fantasy of mine, to have fresh flowers in my room everyday. Then I'd call up all my good friends, WL and W_ and S_ and M_ and kor and just talk to them about everything under the sun, their hopes and dreams and fears and loves, and I'd tell them how much they mean to me. I'd go to the saddle club and just walk amongst the stables, and feed the horses apples and stroke their noses and look at their noble heads and big, sad eyes. I still have a soft spot for horses. Later, I'd just bum around with my siblings, three of us on my bed, and tease each other and tell silly stories and laugh and be merry. I'd take my tortoises out of their cages and watch them amble around, and then go to the garden and watch the koi swim about in their graceful, aimless way. After that, I'd bring my dog to botanical gardens for a walk, then when I get home I'd go for a long, langorous swim, and then I'd have a good dinner of steak and wine and then adjourn to my parents' room and bum with Dad on the sofa and watch tv and laugh at the silly stuff they're showing, and talk about nothing at all. And then I'd give my mom a big hug and a kiss and tell her I love her and I'm sorry for making her angry before. By now, it'd be nightfall, and F_ would come over to my place and we'd have fun together, just two of us in our own little paradise, not caring about exams or ambitions or the world. We'd play with the puppies, and play the piano, and feed each other chocolates and ice-cream, and just like old times, we'd dance to slow music in my room and he'd twirl me around and make me feel special and loved. And last of all, I'd fall asleep in his arms, and we'd be happy.
