today, or rather ytd, was a pretty interesting getaway from home day. met up with someone i'd never dream of going out with alone, but it turned out okayXD
had lunch at soup spoon (yummy!), followed by arthur. arthur was a really great movie, less of a comedy, more of a drama love story that was pretty touching and had a happily after ending(: the nanny did the movie a whole lot of justice, there were some really funny parts that i couldnt help but laugh. for example, if you see this:
who in the right mind will say, "what is this? simetewotefssss?!"
LAUGHOUTLOUD.
and convos like,
"why didnt you tell me earlier"
"i dont want you to feel guilty"
"then why do you tell me now"
"i want you to feel guilty"
just imagine this 4 lines being uttered alternating btwn 2 persons without pauses in btwn.
LAUGHOUTLOUD.
but it was a really touching and nice ending.
the girl-next-door personality of the girl was really attractive(:
kind and unassuming, yet not entirely gullible and stupid.
then we headed to sb.
i finally got an sb card!it looks quite nice leh!=D
heh.found an image of it online(: only had 2 choices and this one looks vintage and just very my style. the other one was limited edition but unfortunately pretty ugly oops.LOL.
i even contemplated getting a sb tumbler which highly likely i'll get the next time, because i decided to enjoy life like an englishmen before i get tortured for 6mths. my key activity would be to nua at sb for a nice cup of coffee and read my accumulated stash of unread bks throughout last sem.i think i have abt 8 so it's all i need to keep me happy=D currently reading the lost symbol - dan brown, which i got for 5bucks at a sch bazaar=D=D=D
outstanding from my previous stash meant for dec 10: persuasion - jane austen, rogue - danielle steel, amazing love - corrie ten boom, your relationship with God - dr gary smalley.
outstanding from this sem's stash: david copperfield - charles dickens, the adventures of huckleberry finn - mark twain, mansfield park - jane austen, the tempest - william shakespeare, last to die - kate brady.
wow, i have 10books including lost symbol to read.haha just decided to do a tally. i have some really thick books in there and i think it's going to take me awhile! im so spoilt for choice bleah. im quite excited to start of david copperfield next but it's abt the thickest amongst the 10 :O
and im quite sure when preceptorship starts i wont be able to read much!which means there'll be more carrying over to the holidays!maybe i shld read during sem time but that would be too tiring!i like to have a clear mind and be able to read for hours and hours without interruption!
and besides reading, i have 120944 things that i want to do this hols!
i've 2 dramas that i notably want to watch: cinderella sister and hotaru no hikari 2! maybe i shld switch to watching dramas during school term instead, more manageable than reading a book during sch term, and more stress relieving!
and i want to suntan(i look like a ghost now),i want to bake, i want to do my art and craft stuff, i want to plan for my church camp, i want to go for a trip, i want to dance.
boo,why can't i have the 3mths to myself=( maybe i should waste less time on monopoly millionaires, then maybe i'll have more time for all these(:
as of now, my mon tue and thu nights are taken up, and maybe some fri nights as well.
and alternate sats. but my day time should be quite free la, and the other nights are to meet my poor friends who are suffering what i'll be doing in 6wks time.
jiayou my friends, no slacking for me too cos i realised im so dead by the questions the preceptors will ask. or rather, i'd still mainly slack la.studying now is damn no life haha!
