You are bovine.

Hello, today I'll be sharing 3 4 interesting convos over the weekend. And today (which is monday).

I haven't been blogging for a while, and I've been having soooo many blogging ideas, just piling right up. Will do it over these two weeks, when I have more time. I hope.

SATURDAY:
[through sms]
the man: The crescent moon tonight is beautiful ... Got a single bright star on it too ...
gissy: (can't quite remember what I said) Sorry for the late reply.. I only just looked out, I think it's gone. Where is the moon!?
The moon disappeared behind the clouds
Tch.. I meant it like in a panicked way. Where is the moon!?
Oh ... I ate it ..

MONDAY:
wyn, ros and I are talking about asian makeup.
me: (to ros) Have you seen any asian makeup tutorials on youtube?
ros: Ya.
me: Where are all the asian ones!?
wyn: Go search for those korean ones, they got all the single eyelids-
me: Oh yaaaa. Ooo, korean. Eh, but I don't have single eyelids. They're like... *shows*
wyn: oh YA!
ros: double eyelids leh!
me: Yes, that's why cannot find!
wyn: You're screwed.

some oliver guy I met at work: Have you bought a transparent bag before?
me: Nope.

On Darwin's theory of evolution or summat like that, the man and I decided to discuss how the chicken evolved into a chicken. Came down to one question:
"What made the chicken want to stop flying?"

We really got into it, and then we decided that maybe the chicken was currently evolving. And one day, it will have no more wings.
the man: oh NO, they won't have any wings anymore!
me: what?
the man: No more chicken wings!
me: oh, hahaha
the man: one day, they won't exist, and your son will say [that no piracy advert] "Daddy, what is a.. ch-chicken wing?"

It's not PRO, but here are some shots wyn and I got from yesterday! I'll keep playing underwater and we'll keep improving! :D

Also, if you are wondering why our (my) eyes are wonky sometimes, dead fish, etc, it's cause our eyes hurt, and I'm blind.










"Is it catching the wind!?"


Moi!


Asswipe.


Amelia Earhart, no?































And now, for the best of the lot! :D





I find the below absolutely adorable!


And this is wyn, in case you were wondering. Frigging hot stuff in this shot!




Everyone seems to like this one below:




Comment ya! :D Suggestions also welcome.

I also dunno how. Let's just say I was working in a certain place (anonymous because I think I'd get screwed if I say something about a workplace or something. blogging is dangerous work people).

And then, with it being my first day, I just let my mind wander, since I had no one to talk to and stuff.

I actually managed to make myself smile with a fantasy.

So the fantasy goes something like, the man supposedly meets a new friend, who somehow has seen me before, or knows me from someplace. And then they're somewhere nearby while I'm working, but I don't know. (in my fantasy the man is there to surprise me at work)

So the man points me out and says that that one is his girlfriend, or the girl he's dating, whatever. And his friend goes "That one is your girlfriend!? The damn hot one?" And I'll be working, folding clothes, arranging stuff, looking beautiful and ignorant and serious and all, looking like I'm working hard and well. And the man will be am chio-ing while his friend keeps saying, wah that one is her?

And then I smiled to myself.

Then I stopped myself, because I realised all this was my fantasy. But I still am chio-ed.

I think even now I half-believe it's true.

When you work at clothing stores, it's pretty interesting to see the kinds of questions you get. Most of the time you get "which size do I look at?", because there's a whole list of different kinds of sizes, and people don't know.

Then there's the "I'm size 27, what size is this?". Till today I still don't know what size 27 is. I just remember that 27 is generally 38, where I work. And that if you're fatter just take 40.

And there's also one, that I got twice today. "Which one is nicer?" It's funny, because these people shop alone, and I feel really happy when they actually trust my opinion. At first, I get happy because it's some conversation to break the monotony. Then upon further reflection, I realise that the person actually trusts my opinion, and that must mean that they think I look good. And that I look like someone who has good taste. And that I'm probably hot or something. That cute braid thing that I've been doing to my hair is fantastic, I feel so cute and professional at the same time.

Alternatively, it might just be that I'm the only one there and they're just asking.

But I'm not the only one there.

So that's how I keep myself happy at work.

Food is a constant topic in my head. I just need to eat. A lot of things. I dunno what to eat tmr. It's tampines, there's everything. EVERYTHING. WHAT TO EATTTTTT T.T

Life is a long long thing, and sometimes, fate has it that you learn things way later than most people, and end up looking dumb. Here are my recent life learnings/epiphanic moments. I can't promise the following post will be funny, but well, I'm quite a funny person. Ha ha.

1. A 10 year-old kid rolled about her seat as I told my story, then groaned "CAN YOU JUST GET TO THE POINT?"

Feel like a grandmother, much? Well that happened yesterday at ros's place when I was telling my story of how I NEARLY became a prefect, and digressed wikipedia style (i.e. don't finish story, talk about detail, talk about minor detail of a detail, and so on).

2. Antibiotics CURE your disease.

Well surprise surprise! I got a major scolding for this one. So I was ill the past week, and I mean, from friday to thursday, so that's really one entire week. I was down with a horrible fluctuating fever, and I was puking and stuff. First doctor I went to kept telling me "I can't be sure". I said "What do you think it is?". Her response, "I can't be sure". I probed further "Do you think it's dengue?". Her response "I really can't be sure."

Then she wrote me some referral letter to CGH. -.-" And I didn't go la, of course. I felt like her diagnosis was pfffft. So I went to another doctor the next day and she gave me helluva lot of meds. I think I had 6 different kinds. Some viral infection la, probably, she said.

Now there were two pills that I weren't supposed to take together. One, the antacids, and the second, the antibiotics. Antacids to counter the acids in my tummy so that I won't keep puking and stuff.

I don't know what I thought I was supposed to do, maybe take the antacids first until I don't feel like puking then start the antibiotics, but yeah, I got a major scolding about common sense and "So big already still don't know". I thought antibiotics were like supplements ma! How was I supposed to know? I never fall sick and hardly hardly ever go to the doctor. I only went to the doctor to get MC. Was it really general knowledge? *lol* Odd that I didn't know, and I'm so big already. Don't laugh at me, I'm sure there's something you don't know too.

3. Anarex tastes like CRAP.
So there were these two pills, one was the paracetemol, and the other one was the anarex. So I usually put the water in my mouth before I dump the pill in, then swallow it all. ONE FINE DAY, water went in, pill went in, and when I swallowed, the pill got stuck somewhere somehow, and before I knew it, the anarex started MELTING.

I'm usually not so verbally violent when it comes to bad food or tastes, but my mind flew into a panic. The following was my thought train.

FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK.

I don't know how to describe it right now, but. It was horrible. You try.

4. Can you do an upside-down handstand?
I can. Jacq can really well too. Wyn can't. She didn't try, she just said it straight up.

5. Proper conversations can never be held at parties.
Last night we had a gathering at ros's place and we just hung out. I remember wanting to talk to wyn and tell her some things, and then.. I completely forgot.

I wish I could put a picture here, but I cannae believe I forgot to get a picture. And everyone smartly decided to get out there instaxes, so we don't really have a digital copy. Except ros. I'll get one copy from her when she uploads it on facebook or something.

We had mee siam, and played wii, and her cousin seems to have taken a liking to me. I think she finds me really funny. In fact, I got very disapproving stares after a shot of soju when I blabbed something like "the hole is too small for the penis to go in" with regards to some potato chip packet. And the kid was there. So yesh.

I even did the patronising "ooo look, a toy!" to the kid. I still don't know her name. Maybe I'll like to have a kid someday. Not if they talk too much though.

In an msn convo with choy, we discussed this. Editted for clarity and better entertainment value.

gissy. says:
 I talk about other things.
 Like money.
 And.. clucky.
 clucky quek pok zhu.
Wai Wan says:
 HAHAHA
 clucky
gissy. says:
 Our secret love affair remember?
 How I used to long for his oily.. hands..
 So slick, with remnants of chicken guts and skin..
 Maybe a bit of meat.
Wai Wan says:
 thats positively gross
gissy. says:
 Love the way his muscles flex when he chops the chicken.
Wai Wan says:
 and the way he cooly reacts to chicken bits flying around
 you got a fetish for his plastic gloves that are soaked with oil
gissy. says:
 And the way he hands me my change.. with his oily hands.
 And I receive the change.. oily.
 Who knows whether its the chicken oil.. cooking oil.. soup oil.. or.. his natural oiliness.
Wai Wan says:
 omgah
 natural oiliness
 that's just... queer
gissy. says:
 Like.. his perspiration or something la.
 I love the way he asks me "yao ji dan ma?"
 I love the way he grips the chicken with such masculine confidence. Slaps it onto the chopping board.
 Chop. chop. chop.
Wai Wan says:
 LOL
 oh gosh this is getting slightly weird
gissy. says:
 My secret fantasy.
 "oh, i love a guy who can cook chicken rice. they're so hot."
Wai Wan says:
 HAHAHAH
 imagine la
 those .. truth or dare kind of moments
 "Truth."
"Okay, what kind of guys do you secretly fantasize about?"
 "Chicken rice sellers."
gissy. says:
 I think people won't know whether to laugh or feel scared.
Wai Wan says:
 i think they'll think you're lying

And if I weren't, and everyone laughs, that's just damn sad.

Below is the red ribbon project submission. I didn't win anything for it because mine was the only entry and they CANCELLED it. I asked after all the prizes were given out. So annoying la. They were like "if there was just one more entry this money in my hands would be yours! *waves envelope*". I don't think they meant it that way, but I took it that way. I put a lot of effort know.

Managed to borrow the man's dslr (thank you so much!) and then editted the pictures one by one, one by one with paint.net.

Hope you guys like it! Must comment comment know!


I got $100 for the short story segment though. Weird, that was the one I was the least confident of winning. Well, the envelope had a Angelia's name on it. That was liquid papered off and then my name was next to it. But they said mine was the "best best best" short story. I dunno sia. *lol* I got 1st! I thought it was kinda cringeworthy though.

Okay, below are a whole long list of pictures you guys might like to see. :D Enjoy!

In the roll for my antihiv shoot:

So just a few days back (tuesday) el and I decided to go swimming again! And this time, I brought my digicam! (seriously, slide film for the previous one was such a bad idea. I mean, everything under the water is blue what, slide film for what!?

It only occurred to me that I could bring my digicam underwater because of this "3m waterproof" sign that I saw at the corner of the cam! I was so excited, until el said "waterproof is not underwater leh". But then.. Why would it say 3m right? So I googled it to check if it was underwater, and it was!

Now, we were supposed to meet at 10.45 at the mrt. I even gave el a wake-up call at 9.30. And she was sooooo late. By the time we met it was like. 12. 11.30. Something along those lines.

I was so blur can. I was so early, waiting to leave the house when el left the house. So I read the papers and stuff, and I was sooo early. I forgot so many things can. I forgot ziplock. I forgot goggles.

El told me plastic bag can already, and goggles, she brought for me. I said, how nice! Thank you!

So we got to the swimming pool, and guess what!? It was CLOSED. Under maintenance. Every tuesday they open at 2.30 only, apparently. So it was 12.30, and we had tons of time to kill. And the weather was so nice and hot! *#@%&@#@

We decided to sit at the jap restaurant just there. (i think its the one jacq was talking about long ago) We ate.. and talked.. and played with her oh so fancy brand new iphone. Wah lao, I also want!







And so later when it opened, the sky was DARK! It looked like it was gonna rain! Gone was the sun, gone was everything! So sadly, unsure of what to do, we walked towards tamp, intending to kill time before we decided it was sunny enough to swim. After walking a little bit from the swimming pool, the crazy sun came out! The clouds were still there, but the sun came out, and it was so hot! And I said, "let's just do it!"

I insisted I was psychic when it came to weather. And I was. *lol* So yes, I said it will rain a bit, but it will stop.

In the end it didn't rain la. But still, I'm still psychic.

So we went to the pool! We sat down for a while, watching the sky and the unpubertised boys, wondering if we should swim NOW.



It was funny, because there were these boys running around and changing pools repeatedly. And they'd run past el and I. And there was this one boy is particular who was wearing tight shorts. Not trunks, a bit longer than trunks. So yesh. It was kinda really tight, and he kept running with his friends. They were all running little steps, because it was slippery. But it was hilarious because his trunks were so tight that we could see his little unpubertised bulge.

me: Eh look look! Its so small!
el: where? I cannot see.
me: there, that little boy with the damn tight pants.
el: oh he ran past already, cannot see.
me: when he comes back, you'll see.
*he comes back*
me: there there there!
el: hehehehehe.

It got us thinking.

Sound effects:
pekpekpekpekpekpekpek. boo....look?


"pekpekpek" is for when he's running. The pause is for him to stop, then when he jumps into the pool, his organs are like in their own element, so everything slows down. "boo...look?"

FUNNY RIGHT!

So yes, we decided to strip and swim because I was psychic. I said if it rains we just get back out and sit there and chat lor.

When we got into the water.. I was so nervous about the camera! I got into the water, then I quickly dipped it in the water. I turned it on. It worked. I dipped it again, fast. It still worked. COOOOOL!

Snap snap snap.

El had to wear her sister's swimming tankini. LOL, hilarious. She had wardrobe problems that morning (that's why she was late), something like some random yellow stain between the boobs on a swimming costume.



And I absolutely LOVE this picture!


Try to smile underwater la! Laugh laugh laugh.


And I really love this picture too!


Cropped it from this:


[okay my heart stopped, i accidentally closed this tab without saving or anything, but i recovered all of it! thank you livejournal autosave!]

Anyway I like both la, the second one got a lot of stuff in the background, but got a lot of space, so it feels very.. spacious. The top one is just cleaner.

Anyway, the thing is, the moment we tried on the goggles, el's one snapped, or was broken already. So we had to share goggles the whole day lor. Anyone knows where to get cheap goggles?

Whaaaat these boys doing. Lucky shot. I was just pointing the cam around underwater and shooting. You see, the thing is, its very difficult to see what you're shooting because of all the funky underwater stuff going on. Reflection here reflection there the goggles the water the lcd screen of the camera.


These boys ah, seriously.


Underwater feel.


BloooooOoOoO. everyone seems to find this picture disgusting. LOL!


When we got into the pool, all these sec school kids came in for lessons. Seriously, it was such a mess. For a long time, we were just standing around the pool soaking and wondering where to swim, how to swim, got so many people.

But yeah, they left at around 4.30, so el and I swam around till about 5 properly.

I CUT MY TOE IN THE WATER OMG! I felt a small pain, but I thought maybe I had a blister and it burst or something. But when I actually saw the cut I felt very nervous already, so yes. I'm better now, thank you for asking.

So RIGHT after we washed up and left, the sky turned ooo dark and scary, confirm going to rain already.

El and her melted kit kat.




At cafe cartel. Want to konk already. El is deciding what to eat.


gissy is waiting for el to decide what to eat.


Our free bread and butter.


Our ordah! Whyyyy got the smiley face.


ALL THE FOOOOOD. One table was not enough.




Eating BREAD. ANGGG.





And then, I bought nail polish after that! I can't believe I bought nail polish! But anyway I got nail polish from elianto, two bottles, $5. $2.50 each. Cheap hor. 2nd level of tampines mall in case you were wondering. Near urs & co, where charles and keith used to be.

And I spent the night painting. THE COLOURS ARE AMAZING! I thought they were candy or I dunno what la! And then, today it hit me. HAPPY HOUSE COLOURS!!!!



VIDEOS!
gissy swimming:

el swimming, you have to find on facebook! Its nothing much la, but she may not want me to put it up here. :)

omg I have so much to do.

The time now is 2210h, and I got home about half an hour plus plus ago. I just chowed down dinner in front of the comp, doing nothing much in particular. Just ate in front of the computer while facebook lagged on me. Come to think of it, its quite funny that I wasn't quite looking at the computer screen while I ate. Usually I take really long to eat BECAUSE of the comp. Other way round now. Ha. Ha. I put my two "ha"s apart from each other because I am so damn tired!

I spent the day at the man's place and then went off to school for a meeting at 5.30pm, and then.. WAH frigging tired. Suddenly I have new projects, and you know, my entire life seems to be about SCRIPTS! Can die right.

I know I seem a bit incoherent, but yes.

Let's just say, I have..

Number one: dinner with A06 + ernie karaoke outing "anonymous" script to write
2: radio scripts to write every week
3: tv script, one every two weeks from next week onwards
4: tv script, my short film dramedy thinggy thing
5: Graduation project report (okay its not a script, but its still something to write)
6: short story(plural?) for anti-hiv competition (again, not a script)

And at this point in time I suddenly realise that I forgot to go to video ezy and ask how much it costs to overdue seasons. RAHH.

I went to white sands just now to go check out if sakae at white sands had a dinner buffet. No. mel el cx and I were gonna go on wed. But now don't have, and el cannot make it on wed, so. RAHH, messy messy. If you saw the great deal of messaging I did today. Thousand and one people sia. I actually was messaging more or less non stop on the train all the way from queenstown to pasir ris today after my tv unit meeting. My phone was actually too slow for me, lagging on me and shit.

Also, random fact, I heard the muttons (to midnight) say that ris low was gonna be deejaying with shan and rozz next week. I dunno if permanent, or for one week, or for one day, or just guest starring, but. Gasp.

Speaking of ris low, I happened to see the new paper today. NOT because I read it. But. Yes. Okay it is juicy gossip. FINE, my eyes were drawn to gossip can. But the newspaper was open on the man's bed. So. Cannot blame me. I told him to stop reading the new paper. Its trash for the brain. Her dress got pulled down by some random guy at a taxi stand. Then later during the tv meeting one of the guys told me that ris low revealed that she didn't like wearing a bra. I dunno if it was in the same article, but yes. Urm. I. Dunno. They say she's nice though.

I totally get what they mean.

There are people who are really nice, but also really nice to make fun of. Like me. But I do make fun of others. Don't remember who sia. A lot la, must be.

Anyway my mummy (i assume) made this fantastic soup. Mmm. Some strong herbal chicken shizz. Got the oil floating at the top and shizz. Man I'm sooo tired. When I'm tired my rambling is reduced to just.. food. And all my duties. And man I am so tired.

Also, I have an anti-hiv competition I wanna participate in. I gotta do proper photog for it la, but then I got some poster ideas. I'll post them in a locked post so you guys can see but others won't steal the idea or something. Let me know what you think! And urm mel if you're reading this, since you got an eye for such stuff, mebbe you could help critique. *lol* Yay. Got prize money. If your comment helped I'll treat you to something. Food la. You so rich already. Kinda.

Anyway if you wanna see the pics but then aren't able to access the locked posts then let me know la, I'll email you.

OMG SCRIPTS. And speaking of oil, one paragraph ago, I had bacon this morning. Mmm. Toasted, because.. the man was too lazy to properly fry them in a pan. And bacon grease is like. Yum. Yum yum.

GISSY DO YOUR WORK OMG.
