My mother says that I can't eat with a plate. She says I need to use a tray when I have lunch or dinner. Well, it's not my fault food occasionally misses my mouth or somehow flies off my plate and onto my place mat (sometimes outside the place mat). I really don't know how that happens. I think it happens only when my eagle-eyed mom and brother (one of them. The other two are in their own worlds) are around. Maybe I get so nervous at the thought of them watching me eat that my hand-mouth coordination goes a bit off-course.
There's a pesky mozzie buzzing around me now. Thinking of splitting it open using one of the cactus thorns (gotta catch the darn thing first, though).
My Aunty asked me what I'd like as a birthday present. I told I'd like to have a little cactus to place in my bedroom and to put a little sombrero hat on.
I got the cactus!! Now I need to look for a little sombrero to fit over one of its little arms.

I don't have any photos of the cactus yet, but I'll upload em once I do.
Happy, happy, joy, joy!

I didn't know I had a cousin named Michael. Found about a week ago. He's in his 20s and lives in Aussieland. Met him and his family for the first time last week, when they came down for a relative's birthday bash. Anyway, Michael's dad, being Aussie, spoke with a strong Aussie accent. When the family came over that day, I asked them what they'd like to drink. Michael's dad, Uncle John, said, "Have a guess" but I it sounded like "I'll have a Giss" so I thought Giss was a type of alcoholic drink since it sounded a bit like Guiness so I replied "Sorry, I don't think we have that". Haha.

To UJ: I'm writing this post while you're driving back with little Jake so you can read this when you get back haha!


I broke a lamp today, It was green in colour, which is why I'm writing this post in green.
Lovely lamp, it was. Until I accidentally shattered it into a few hundred pieces

You know that game that only bendy people are capable of winning? Limbo? Well, if you know it then you'd know that everyone shouts 'How low can you/he/she go'. Well, up till quite recently (a few years back), I had always thought that everyone was saying "Hello, candy, go!"

I've been scratching the back of my ear for the past 32 minutes. Why, you may or may not ask. It's itchy, i may or may not reply. Why is it itchy, you may or may not ask. I dunno, probably a mosquito bit me, i may or may not reply. Why would a mosquito bite you, you may or may not ask. Because they are wretched creatures, i may or may not reply. If you ask me why they are wretched creatures, I will not answer you because that's a silly question.
Two of the best birthday presents I had this year:

1. Danish butter cookies from my parents ( I asked for this. I now keep them by my bedside as midnight snacks woo! )
2. Three pairs of the softest, most comfortable socks to have ever covered my feet (from my grandparents)

Oh. I had other awesome presents too
As well as some interesting ones... (courtesy of Yy and Jy!)
This December, my church's youth group/Sunday school will be putting on something special for Christmas. Anyway, we need to perform this song 'O Little Town of Bethlehem'. That means I have to sing :( Aaaaauuuuuugggghhhhhhhhhhhhh.

My friend called me up this afternoon saying that she's forgotten how to sing the song and could i please sing it to her over the phone.

I did. Halfway. Then I felt embarrassed so just hummed the second half. While self-consciously humming the tune, the phone got cut. I didn't realize till i finished my rendition of the song haha.

Even my dear friend had enough of my singing :S
I now feel mortified to have put her ears through such pain.

Billy: I think-
Mandy: No, you don't.

From the Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy (one of Luke's favourite shows. I think the show's creators had Luke in mind while creating the show haha).

I found this line really funny. And so true. Cos Billy never thinks, from what i gather whenever i pass through the TV room where my brothers are sprawled across the floor/couch like zombies watching Billy stick his bum into fans while studying (working his butt off).

Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes I know I haven't updated in ages! This is what happens when you attend a college where public hols are replaced on a saturday. Then again, I think it's reallt because I'm not getting enough motivation from you people! Does it really take much to push me to update? Baha

Yesterday night, I went through an A-Z list of phobias with my father and Uncle Jude. There are some hilarious ones on the list!! I feel very sorry for those who suffer from any one of the following phobias:

  • Arithmophobia- Fear of numbers
  • Cacophobia- Fear of ugliness
  • Chromophobia- Fear of colours. Poor thing
  • Chronomentrophobia- Fear of clocks.
  • Genuphobia- Fear of knees. The poor fellow won't even be able to look below his waist for fear of hyperventilating
  • Koinoniphobia- Fear of rooms. I wonder how they manage
  • Pteridophobia- Fear of ferns
  • Octophobia- Fear of the figure 8. Hahahaha! My dad, my uncle, and I couldn't get over this one

And my favourite:

  • Barophobia- Fear of Gravity. (Oh no, we can't fall off the edge of the earth, gravity's holding us back! Oh crap, if i jump up I'll have to come down!! Auuuuuuuuuuggggggghhhhhhhhh)

Do i have any fears? Well, I'm sometimes afraid of getting something stuck in my teeth without me realizing, then going round talking to hundreds of people. Dunno if you'd call that a phobia, though. Oh, I dislike spiders and bees. There was this one time when there was a spider on the toilet seat in my bathroom. I managed to flush it down the toilet, but I didn't use my bathroom for the whole day, just in case the spider emerged from the toilet bowl alive and vengeful!
