The stranger sang a theme
From someone else's dream
The leaves began to fall
And no one spoke at all
But I can't seem to recall
When you came along

sat NEL for the first time today!! tho it was for only one stop to clarke quay. haha. the train ride was faster/smoother, and the seats seemed to be ergonomically-designed?? at least it felt more comfortable. but that could just be swa-ku me. as my fren said, why did u even bother to sit down when it was only one stop away?! anw had dinner at sketches wif the 401 pple... erm only 5 of us lah. but it was still a nice change from the usual orchard ambience... for one, there were no sch kids ard!! neither were there many other pple ard actually... heh. except some expats or yuppie-looking groups. food was not bad cos can customise your pasta/pizza... and i impressed everyone when i ordered the creamy cheese sauce on top of my ravioli (?), and still managed to finish it!! ooh talking abt food, i cooked dinner for my parents yesterday and they were pleasantly surprised..... stir-fried beef, vegetable soup, fried egg and leftover of my lunch fried rice. (ns r u reading dis?!) the beef came out too 'tasty' ( as in i overdid the seasoning) but i guess the bland vegetable soup made up for it.... sigh. at least my mum said my fried rice was of standard.... she bought me a light blue zara windbreaker too, fr the KIDS section..... haha. guess i may end up buying kids' clothes in us too... at least it'll be cheaper!!

ok, i'm officially announcing the demise of my tagboard..... it looked and worked perfectly fine on my computer (and xinling's)... i even emailed the tag-board pple to help me... they were pretty efficient, cos one member of their staff came to leave a post to test it out.... and it was totally OK!!! (that's the explanation for u tzehui.... heh told u it was nothing exciting.) but tze, melod, etc all had problems using it lor... and apparently it overlaps into my entries as well..... too bad then. since the tagboard was not for my use anw... there goes my pretty purple box!!!! =( oh well, not tt i expected the tagboard to be very well utilised.......
oh dear i think i'm feeling the same way as * now. not witty enuff to haf a blog!! haha. nvm, shall just use this space to write my own stuff... if u r bored enuff to be reading this..... not my fault ah!! ok, so i think i'm a really indecisive person when it comes to shopping (and many other things). i end up spending so much time over really immaterial things!! bad habit #1. like today at queensway, i saw this pair of fila shoes tt looked quite ok (not really ideal but OK. not bad compared to the other shoes tt we saw), but i couldnt decide whether the size was alright.... so i ended up reserving the pair and will hafta drag my poor mother to come wif me to queensway again to look at it. argh.
but i guess i'll haf no choice but to break this habit in a few mth's time... otherwise sure chalk up a lot of fone bills lor. so..... there's hope for me yet?!

tah-dah!! this is the result after hrs of groping my way thru html land.... =) feeling rather accomplished now for someone who's computer skills r sooo bad!! actually wanted to choose a blogskin wif "a pair of flowers" (its name), but tzehui and ningsi both said the flowers very tu... hai. so there goes my dream of a floral theme.... (yes i noe potpourri refers to dead/dried flowers but still!!) never mind. this looks pink enuff. and there's a blue swirls one as well so if i EVER decide tt pink is not my cup of tea anymore, i can change it pretty easily!! too bad the stupid ad is blocking the doodle-like thingy now.... it kinda reminds u of a treble clef dun u think?? an expression of my musical inclinations, no?? haha. but i'm getting kinda xian abt cello lessons liao... i mean, i haf been playing the same 3 pieces for the past 6 mths.... sigh. cant wait for my exam to be over!! if i could just noe the date...

great this is working!! cant believe i finally decided on a name and all... or maybe the inertia (of being) aimless simply became unbearable after a while... hee erm tt was not supposed to make any sense by the way!! *nods to ningsi*
now all i haf to do is to work on the look (wat's the proper term for this?)..... which doesnt seem like a very undemanding task. sigh.
so this is day 5 of my being alone at home.... haha actually i shouldnt be saying this for the world to read rite... but anw only a select (!!) few is ever likely to stumble onto this blog.... or maybe not. maybe i should just keep this a secret... heh. but as i was telling tzehui, if i wanted to spill out my innermost thoughts i would just write it in a diary rather than publish it on the web! even if there's a 0.001% chance of anyone reading it.... so ya i dun foresee myself revealing any dark secrets on this place any time soon!!! haha not that i haf (m)any.... =p
but it's kinda fun lah i must admit, if u haf a happening life and lots of exciting things to write!! (or like ningsi who wants to prove that she is Happening. haha) either that or if u haf deep insightful thoughts abt LIFE. unfortunately i dun belong to either category.... oh well. who cares rite. if everybody has one i must haf one too!!! - maybe there shud be a third category for pple like me...
hmm i should go do something more constructive now...... like boiling beef porridge for lunch..... ok so it's not as exciting as baking cakes and cookies, but it's way more practical i tell u!! hmph. so there.
