...past conversations re-playing continuously in my head, like a broken video player
HELLO PEOPLE xD... xiuqing and i are in doha right now... the stopover before athens... we're terribly bored and we found this internet stationy thingy....
MY TURN! haha it's xiuqing here. i'm new to this blog thing! Anyway sammi is just unenthusiastic, doha airport is pretty cool! like everything is in arabic and they have this really nice playground which sammi refuses to play in (such a wet blanket!)
...there was only one 5 year old kid in there.... excuse me... and she was like 'are you 5 or 16?' when i squealed at the cute little playground... so there... humph
but i regained my zest for it later! hello! anyway i want to find nice qatar airways air hostesses to take pictures with. sammi is really shy when it comes to taking funny photos. she's freaked out because of my extremely weird and overly friendly behaviour. heh.
i was not!! i was perfectly fine with it... just as long as i didnt have to be in those photos... oh and by the way ... xiuqing types really really slowly... she keeps making weird mistakes.
that's because i'm hyper! and not used to this keyboard which is really 0ld and cranky and HJ\SFHSDFGNDSGSDIGH.
oh dear need to go now... toodles from us... maybe we'll find another place to update soon :))
-sammi & xiuqing
Yes i do realise how long it has been since my last update... a certain someone who shares the same chinese name as me has reminded me of this just this morning... and i know i promised i'd update around october... well heh. on the brightside, im FINALLY updating!! that should cheer some people up... (: so where have i been? lets see...
EXAMS were just blah... i mean come on its exams. nothing much to say there... unless you want me to tell you my grades and stuff.. nahh tehehe well it was great overall i guess... my maths could have been better but oh wells... and i am so entirely proud of my chinese thankyouverymuch my paper one aka the compo got 49.5/60 that is the highest i have EVER gotten for an exam chinese essay... wheee okayokay anyway... i got promoted to ta3 and i had to write a personal statement for scholarship applications... yay me!
LAST DAY OF SCHOOL in school wasnt all that memorable cause as of right now i cant remember much of the schoolday itself. mmm butbutbut after school was an absolute party! 6 of us (me, xiuqing, sonia, weixin, denise, sadia) borrowed Phatom of the Opera from the school library and went to Sonia's house to watch it... okay i've got this to say about it - the plot was errm less than satisfactory im sorry to all the fans BUT i completely fell in love with the soundtrack!! my favourite songs were Angel of Music, Phantom of the Opera and Masquerade *skips around singing* haha we were still high on the musical on the way home and i think we might have annoyed the rest of the people on the train with us lol? whoopsie
BOOK SHOPPING which i did on last monday i think when i went to the popular branch at Orchard... but then of course me being me couldn't resist buying a few books while i was in the area of BORDERS and of course you already know i went to popular (with a popular card.. all the more reason!!) altogether, me and my sister bought i think 6 books if i remember correctly [Jinx, Avalon High no2, Maximum Ride, Shoe Addicts Annoymous, Dedication and The Manny] i read 4 of those books and am currently on The Manny... just started it this morning kinda cute i guess.. i havent gotten to the main story yet, just the introduction.
SANDCASTLE BUILDING was such a torture!! i've complained to sooo many people i guess a few more people who read my very dead blog would like to hear it too... :)) its not like you really have much of a choice.. im putting it here anyway wahaha... my arms were aching as was my lower back and my thighs and my calves... after the second day i was sunburnt in 5 places... to all those who know me well would know this.. i dont sunburn easily... GAH... on the bright side... i may have exersised a few seldom used muscles... meh... and am now quite tan cept for those 5 places... but then again my feet dont really need to get tanned right? i mean they are perfectly fine being white and stuff... hahaha on the first night, i ate dinner with wanshi at KFC at parkway goodness the cheesefries werent even hot! sobsob and it was freezing there... the company was good though :)) haha the second night i had dinner with denise and sonia it was fun... yesyes sonia... it was because you were there ^^ and also cause of those really hilarious stuff denise said which ended up causing my stomach to hurt *scrunches up face*
TODAY was SUCH FUN!! i woke around 9am cause thats when i set my alarm clock to wake me up... otherwise i would have been late for my meeting with Sonia and XiuQing seeing as to how i usually wake up at 12 plus for the past week ... heh ^^ anyway i ended up playing with my Rubik's Revenge until i looked at the time and realised it was 1053 or so and started cursing like crazy cause i realised i was gonna be late... heh whoopsie? i then rushed around the house getting clothes, accesories and stuff which i needed to either return sonia or lend sonia.... thankfully i remembered everything :)) and also fortunately for me, my bus arrived just as i got downstairs... in all i think i got there bout 4-5 minutes late... xiuqing was already there but sonia was still somewhere along the east-west line... xiuqing and i waited for sonia then headed upstairs for lunch cause we were starving (i didnt eat breakfast)... and we settled eating at Thai Express where xiuqing and i attempted quite uselessly to get their attention to order our food hahaha... well we eventually managed to... someone next time remind me not to order the seafood fried rice.. it was a little too salty and waaaay too much for me... unless i was going with peiyi la then she'd jsut finish up whatever i couldnt lol... so then after lunch the three of us went to buy the movie tickets for our 1550 show of Stardust... and then went back down to popular where i bought another book ^^ the second book of Maximum Ride yepyep then downstairs for wonderful venezia ice-cream :)) i had my usual hazelnut, sonia had lemon and xiuqing had dark chocolate... the lemon was sending sinful thingles through my mouth i tell you... mmmmm! well anyway after our utterly sinful ice-cream, sonia and i went up for our manicures... xiuqing wanted to too but she promised her mum she was gonna help clean the house tomorrow sadly... and she had to wait outside ... poor girl... while sonia and i had our manicures done... i tell you i look absolutely fabulous... my nails are painted in this really shiny whitish-slivery-palepink-palepurple kinda colour... if you get what i mean... hahahaha in any case they look fantastic on me... so there ^^ and sonia's nail colour was kinda a deep shiny orangy red... i thought it matched her blouse :)) it looks great on you hon... okay after that we had an hour to kill... so xiuqing's brillant idea, since sonia and i couldnt do anything anyway, we went to Burger King, sat down and talked our way through the one hour...while sonia and i waited for our nails to completely dry.. thankfully they dried by the time the movie started cause we needed to go to the toilet before that.. hahaha andandand ohmygosh STARDUST is just fantastic... i tell you, its the most wonderful, exciting, thrilling, romantic fantastical comedy i have watched in a while! seriously i wouldn't mind watching it again!!! the lines are so witty and hilarious and some are so touching and wonderfully put... but i shant put anything here so no spoilers! go watch it yourself... its totally worth it... anyway thats pretty much the end of my day :))
