Squareface @ 31°North

Every time, I ask myself why. The self-interrogation usually starts in the sanitarily homely Changi Airport waiting lounge where it becomes a marketplace with Chinese nationals talking at the top of their voices, and where it is unclear whether the stench of salted fish is coming from their bags of purchases or the fact that they removed their shoes.

Then it becomes a full-blown self-chiding session when the man sitting next to me on the plane cannot close his mouth when he yawns, robbing me of my already weak ability to breathe in a plane that recycles its air of salted fish, rare showers, and many more yawns; and he hit me five times while putting on and taking off his jacket.

WHY AM I HERE?

I thank the Indian customs officers who moved me with the simple acknowledgement that I am not part of the above group.

hahahahahaha… found this on a random forum:

Simple things like saying “Make us a cup of tea, love.” show the inadequacies of a LDR straight away. By the time you’ve boiled the kettle, emailed to ask if they take sugar, phoned to ask if they take milk, texted to find out how many sugars because they forgot to say in the email, made the tea, bought a thermos, made another pot of tea because the first one went cold whilst you were out buying the thermos, poured the tea into the thermos, wrapped it, posted it, waited two weeks to find the post office have lost your parcel, made another pot of tea, bought more padded envelopes and another thermos, posted that (recorded delivery) and waited until your lover emails you to say it has arrived but the tea is cold and stewed and you forgot to send any biscuits, then you realise the relationship will never work…

Not ladies accessories, but cell phone, camera, MP3 players and PDA ones.

Choose from a wide variety of accessories for whichever brand and model your tech gadget is, and you’ll find many products that you don’t usually see in regular stores (check out Cheap PDA Accessories, for instance). If you want something rare, sfplanet is more than willing to check it out for you.

I checked out accessories for Nokia N95 8GB just for fun, and found over 50 accessories to play with, ranging from carrying cases, car mounts, bluetooth headsets, charger and USB cable, LCD screen care, straps and charms.

(a note from my dad to my mom on the back of the house door. This is how they communicate sometimes)

For just another 3 days though.

This year my red packet collection from Chinese New Year was pretty good, ‘coz I guess relatives are more generous now that I’m older, or simply because of inflation.

But I lost all of it in Genting.

Nothing to say.

There are just too many sites that offer to help you book flights and accommodation. TravelHERO is a one-stop portal that caters to your flights, accommodation, and transportation needs. If you need a comfortable trip with branded airlines, starry hotels, and car services, then rely on a site like TravelHero for Disney World hotels. The hotel reservation portal informs you of the room rates for every night that you indicated, provides pictures, hotel features, driving directions, list of amenities, area attractions, etc. Should the hotel be close to fully booked, the portal will highlight things like “Only 3 rooms left”.

Not only does it cater to U.S., Canada, and Mexico tourists, it also provides similar information for international destinations.

Not for budget travellers.

祝大家新年快乐，心想事成，

在新的一年里，吉祥如意，生活美满幸福！(Credit: CG for editing)

I hope I can inch closer to a life that is 美满幸福. Meaning less 躲躲藏藏 would be good.

So. Resolution for mouse year: (to parents:) drop larger hints, talk about Sam more, leave books lying around, tell less lies.

Haha no resolution for school. Continue skipping classes that are useless, continue sleeping if I feel like it, continue avoiding people who get on my nerves. I must remember that the squirrels were really adorable in UBC, and just be glad of that memory (I think no one will understand this attempt at a joke except CG).

Okay okay, eat less too. I don’t want the day to come when I can only wear PJs. That last sentence came up thanks to Connie’s comment when she saw me in my penguin PJs and said “How come only fat people look good in PJs?” BITCH.

Hey we’ve booked our tickets to go on a short trip to Genting and KL from the night of Feb 11th till Feb 14th.

Let me know if I can use your name to tell my mother I’m going with you.

Instead of spending $500 fixing a crown on my about-to-split molar, a metal bind is now holding that tooth together, so it looks like I have braces, just on that tooth, and it cost me $180 instead. I would show you a picture but it’s revolting, so here’s just a couple of pics I took at the dentist’s. He was such a good sport letting me take pictures of him at work, drilling away, heh.

Okay, I don’t know why I’m actually exhibiting these to the world. But well, i guess spoilt teeth is a sign of age, and such a significant event should be blogged about. Okay I promise that the next time I ever blog anything about my oral health, it’s only going to be as serious as my teeth falling apart. So hopefully this is my first and last post on such a topic. Haha.

To Jason: Prams Prams Prams!
