work-in-progress
i seriously think something is wrong with my parents already. its like as if i have reached a mating age, and they keep hoping i would smuggle a girl home. (recall: my dad always imagine there is a girl in my room every other night).
i was coming back from the cfp at suntec, and my dad was accompanying me. on the way back to office he said.
daddy: why do you keep talking so much
son: nah, just excited to talk to you
daddy: you got dumped right ? no girl talk to you anymore.
son: … …
mummy: wah, save so much money
son: yeah, a man must save money for the future
mummy:you trying to save for your wedding arh.
son: … …
it was saturday, and a quiet one. here’s the background story to make everything make sense. sf was having an company function at her colleague’s place which wasn’t that far away from mine, so i decided to go meet her. initially i told her that i could meet her at the shell station outside the private estate, but she started nagging that its going to be a very very long walk. in my opnion, it didn’t look very far on the satellite image. anyway so i decided to walk to her location instead.
i checked the map, the other house was really deep in the estate, and before i set off, i made a last minute decision to take the car. and yes why was it a last minute decision to take the car? you see, initially we both agreed not to take the car, bceause i have been driving out late and night almost every night, and my dad can easily track the time of my departure and return. so we decided not to take the car. but looking at the distance i need to cover, i decided against it, and i was lucky to do so. after i reached the place, sf was totally suprised she thought that i had walked the distance in, but i guess she was abit too smart, and suspected something was fishy. so she just said “did you drive? later can give my friends a ride out ?” and i just plainly said “yeah sure” and that gave it away. sigh. to think i actually spent the effort to hide the car in a different lane altogether.
anyway blar blar, normal stuff, but here’s what’s interesting that happened. my dad actually found the car missing again at midnight and called me.
daddy: son! where are you? why do you keep running out at night, bad you know?
son: erh, i’m at my friend’s collegue’s place, not very far from home
daddy: why so late ? must be you instigate all these late night outings.
son: no no, i’m just catching my friend after her bank’s company function
daddy: so late ? where got function so late one, rob bank is it ?
son: … … …
sigh, anyway i managed to clear it up, but now my parents are relentless in nagging about me going out so late. i guess i shouldn’t, but hmmm, maybe its a bad habit bah. my dad was right though when he said that i became like that when i got the car. hiakz. bad boy i have become.
was reading about this in the tribune. last year, i was neutral about this day, but this year, i’m glad i’m spending it the way i want to. i’m happy to be single, because i get to be friends with people who calls me a piglet and many other things. - to be continued.
well well, i’m bored enough to blog during my COM 224: Web Design and Technologies class. We are actually commenting on Starhub and Singtel’s website and trying to decide which one is nicer. Yes nicer. Somehow I think this module is a complete waste of time, hence I shall work at it abit more to get a decent grade to make it all that worth while.
the cny celebrations are mostly over, and thankfully the festivities are about to end too. i never really liked doing all these traditions and stuff, i’m prefer a simple and uncomplicated life.
another 13 more minutes before the lesson ends. 43 minutes before i leave the school compound, and 14 hours more before all this start all over again.
i’ve been feeling quite restless all this time, can’t sit still, bones are abit aching, and i hope to have a good night rest. catching up with old friends lately, and its been great, sf turns out to be a nicer person then i thought she would be. instead of the ice queen she always had been, good wife material haha, but that might offend her if i say that to her face. met up with some people from jc time at mingren’s company’s first anniversary. i’m really glad for him to come thus far. it surely brings back memories. was great to see terrence, yuanshan and willy once more. would have caught valerie if i stayed longer, but i had another engagement to attend to. tomorrow will be able to catch hj, its been more then 6 years since i last saw her, i wonder if she has grown taller or more adult-y then when she was a fresh secondary school graduate.
lately have been avoiding parking at carpark A, really don’t think its worth it, i rather save abit so that i can use it for the keppel at marina or more exclusive places. and currently suffering from a phobia of prata, thanks to a week of supper with it, during cny. and been driving more and more now. probably would reach a rate of 2000km/mth soon enough. brakes aren’t that strong anymore, maybe wear and tear has set in after the last 10,000km.
5 more minutes before the lesson end, now a comparison between the aesthetics of tyra banks and oprah’s website. 2 people which i don’t even care at all. 4 minutes left. i think this is just a complete waste of time.
well at least i managed to sneak in a post.
update: omg, he actually marks attendance, to think i wanted to skip all future lessons of his.
