i say in a very small voice: "i think i look nice here!" hahaha.

okay, so these few days have been awesome and i couldn't ask for more. i'll upload more pictures and then steal some from natw (haha, thank you, i love you!). slightly busy with something right now, so i'll add on to this post later on, 'k?

stay healthy and happy!
xoxo,
audrey.

[edit]
yay! hello again. i am editing!

haha, i think i'm crazy. i slept at 245 yesterday night, or rather, today morning. it's 822 now and i'm fully awake! yes, i think i'm going to die for either the bbq tonight or my math tuition tomorrow.

i want to go back to sleep, but i can't! don't know why either. haha "last night's" dreams were awesome. like, i would totally want to re-dream them. but let's do a recount thing.

okay, i just checked: the last time i updated was on friday. so let's do this day-by-day.

saturday:
damns, what did i do on saturday? OHOHOH. mommy's Carousel buffet lunch! miss tan's house fair! home club flea market! yes, it's all coming back to me now. so i went to the house fair first, meeting liana at simply bread with her mom before grace fong came and liana's mom kindly gave us a ride to namly rise. we went there and basically hung out with miss tan. i got a purse + scrap wallpaper + earrings for my mom = $143. haha liana was very disapproving. and shocked at the rate i spend my money.

after that, l&g went over to holland v (for frolick, i should think) while i took 77 down to tangs and then walked over to the pacific plaza. the buffet there is quite good and the whole place is so pretty! i ate quite alot. in fact, my whole family did. but if i had to determine the one who ate the most, my brother wins, hands down. i really hope that puberty will, in sze's words, "hit him hard" so that he will shoot up and slim down. natw gurantees that it will happen.

right anyway. we sat around in Carousel for quite a bit until we all felt like it was alright to walk again. my family went home while i crossed over to meet natw at far east. we first went to 77th street to buy her brother a leather strap/bracelet thingo. after that, we met sze and trooped off to clarke quay for the Home Club Flea Market.

i had to walk around in my heels, and although it started off very comfortable, it ended up being too tough on my poor feet. i read in a magazine that if you're wearing heels more than one inch, you need to "rest 15 minutes for every 45 minutes you walk". i don't think i did that. but, me and sze sat down by some bridge and started taking polaroids/pictures using natw's dslr. that's how the above lone picture came about.

then we entered the flea market and was promptly disappointed. blamed it all on natw before discovering the existence of an "inside" section. hahaha. so we went inside and there was better stuff. sze and natw both bought something each. i didn't because i already blew 143 bucks in the morning.

post-flea market, we went to some mall and sat down at paiseley&cream. it was really pretty and we all had something to drink/eat there. rested and talked. i helped sze put on eyeliner and boy did it make a difference! :)

after pretty cafe, we went to natw's house where we had tons of fun. i'm not going to like recount every single thing that happened at her house, but we played scrabble and watched some tv and then attempted a heart-to-heart talk which didn't work out and managed to borrow jon's laptop so i could find out that kaypoh girl existed. browsed through fb for a bit too, i think but i was too restless so i ended up exploring the room to natw's shrieks of "DON'T OPEN THAT!" so secretive for what!

and that, was my saturday.

sunday:
church with sze and we were almost locked in our class. sze found a new interest in life and av still remained indifferent to bras. after church, we went over to waffletown because sze wanted to eat there but it does't open until 1100, which meant that we had up to 45 minutes to kill. we killed it by sitting down on a bench and sorta talked/did random stuff. time rolled around not-very-quickly and we all finally entered waffletown. it disappointed. smells funny and looks dingy and it sells more than waffles and isn't a town. oh well, shall set my expectations lower the next time. haha. so sze and i watched av eat a double bacon cheeseburger with snapple, which i assume is pink lemonade. av can't eat burgers or sandwiches for nuts. to know what i mean, you simply have to go watch her do it someday. it becomes damn messy, all the sauce leaking out and eargh. i shudder at the thought of it.

after waffletown, we took a bus to newton mrt, where we parted way. av towards a different directon from me and sze. (i should probably stop saying "me and sze" cos that's wrong, but whatever. i like to come first.) me and sze took the train from newton to dhoby ghaut, from dhoby ghaut to outram park, from outram park to bugis. where we decided to wait for jacq's arrival so that we can eat lunch together. but jacq decided to be late and so we had weird things for lunch. i had crepes and sze had tako pachi with macs sprite. we walked all over the place because natw and jacq were both late.

we eventually collapsed into seats at Rockery where two empty used cups were conveniently placed on the table. so me and sze (okay, just me) made a big show of pushing the cups aside and being all "ahhhh, the drink is finished! i am so full!" and then slouching and being all sluggish after that. natw came like half an hour after that, and jacq didn't come at all. we had to walk out of the bugis mrt to meet her. a leopard never changes it spots. guess a princess never changes her tiara.

(shit, damn, argh. SNEEZING FITS BEGIN AGAIN.)

we start to walk over to haji lane AND THEN IT BEGINS RAINING. like seriously, oh GREAT. ran to the bus stop for shelter and then hailed a cab, which conveniently didn't know where haji lane was so he had to consult the directory. we got there in the end anyway, but it started off horrible becasue we had to walk along corridors that were cramped chockful of people. it eventaully reached a point where the entire corridor was blocked off by people trying to bring their stuff into the shelter, so we all had to walk in the rain for a short distance in the empty wet road of haji lane. i was wearing a jacket so all i did was to put my hood up and look at the floor, hoping that my face wouldn't get drenched.

original plan was to head over to Pluck for icecream and seats, but it was super crowded. natw bought icecream and the rest of us pretended that we were interested in whatever they were selling. i was interested in their wallpaper but there wasn't any ones which looked like it could be used by me. told sze about the theory which she still doesn't get! >:(

the rain lessened and we finished up what was left of the flea market. jacq stayed on at haji lane while me, natw and sze took 7 back to town. me and natw dropped off at parkmall and then switched to 171. saw an old primary school friend there, so that was lovely too.

and that, was my sunday.

monday:
{ rawr, i swear i shall update faithfully and dutifully next time! you probably can't stand all my recounting, right? :( }

righto, so early in the morning, i woke up to the sound of the phone ringing and the next thing i know, my mom was shouting my name and guess that means i had to wake up to answer it. turns out to be avril. and long story cut short, she was extremely loser that day. haha. :)

did everything necessary before leaving the house to walk over to subway and have brunch with her. talked for quite a bit too, so that was muchly needed. thank you, av!

natw came at around 1150 and jacq came after 1230. we bought groceries and watched jacq eat her mini-sub (1/3 of a footloong sandwich). took a bus over to natw's house, where we met sze-who-overslept-and-thus-was-late.

at natw's house, we were planning on BAKING BUTTER COOKIES! haha yayyyy. the process was supeh fun. haha. all the flour and cookie dough. we left it to refridgerate for an hour and played battleship/the worst case scenario survival game. when time was up, we rushed over to start cutting out our cookies and it was so funny! we realised that the dough became too sticky after a while making it difficult to cut out, so we had to cut out everything quickly when it was still cold and fresh out from the fridge. in other words, there was a frenzy.

"QUICK. GO GO GO GO! HURRY UP! OKAY, RE-ROLL THE DOUGH... AND GO GO GO GO GO!"

it was friggin hilarious. five people in one small kitchen rushing around like there's no tomorrow. damn funny. couldn't stop laughing.

we left it to bake and made quite some cookies! they all turned out fat and damn cute. then we made icing, purple green orange and white. but unsuccessfully iced the cookies. they dripped all over the place. >:( then me and sze decided to clean up everything in the kitchen, washing dishes and blah blah WHEN WE DISCOVERED THE SOLE PURPOSE OF BICARBONATE OF SODA.

omg, sze told me that it was exfoliator or something like that because she stained the sponge with food colouring, but after the bicarbonate of soda was introduced to it, it all came off! that was it, man. we started adding bicarbonate of soda to everything. "ew this thing won't come off... SODIUM BICARBONATE!!" haha then we made an ultimate mixture of sodium bicarbonate, soap, eggs, food colouring, fruit juice and alot of other gross stuff. i put a hippo cookie into it and then took it out, placing it back on the cooling rack to see if anybody will pick it out. hahaha but sze didn't allow me to do that so i had to throw it away. me and sze laughed like crazy, it had to be all the icing sugar in our bloodstream.

after that, we removed our nail polish and read magazines. moved from natw's room to the living room where a bunch of five teenage girls slugged around. until her mom came back and we all left. jacq to go home and the remaining three of us to railmail's A-Mei Kaya Toast for dinner. we had prata! then coffee bean for relaxation and old times' sake. me and sze stayed till around 9 before her dad gave me a lift home. :)

awesome, right? i know. i love my eventful days and marked calendar. today is movie day at avril's with natw and then rmun bbq. OOH SO EXCITING.

okay i'm going to bathe now. tag if you survived reading the whole of this, i want to know who the powerful people are.
