My April Fool Trick on 2010

Haha , just now dunno why , suddenly I remember about my April fool trick I did to my classmates on April 2010 . I think my study in Singapore got connection with that April fool . Last time , when I was still on my first year of high school / junior college , I dunno why I suddenly got idea to trick my classmates on April fool . So , on March 31st , I sent text message to some of my classmates , saying "Hi , my friends , thank you for colouring my days in this high school , I know one year is kinda short time , but I already felt that you guys are rocks ! Please don't forget me , and I'm sorry for last minute notice , but I'm not gonna attend class tomorrow and forever , I'm admitted into Methodist Girl School (MGS) , Singapore ... Good bye , my dear friends , good luck for your study in Saint Joseph College !"
They were all surprised , some of them even got sad because they didn't want me to move to Singapore . My best friend at that time asked me ,"Eh , how come you never told us about this before ?? Why you move into that school ?? I'm gonna miss you !!"
Then I replied her text ,"Well , my cousin currently works in Singapore , then I asked him to send my secondary school transcript to MGS , at first I never guessed that I'd be admitted into that school , but then they accepted me as their student , even I got scholarship ... I'm gonna miss you too... Take care :)"
Then the next day , I went to school . The first thing that my classmates did when they saw me standing in front of the class door , they were surprised . They couldn't believe that it's me standing there .
Then the next thing happened , one of them asked me "Hey , I thought you're in Singapore now ?? Why ?? You missed the plane or what ??"
Then I asked all of them to go check the calendar . When they saw it , at first they said that nothing special on the calendar . I just smiled . Till then they just realized something , yeah April 1st , 2010 . April fool !! Then they all 'bullied' me . Some of them tickled me and I just could laugh laugh and laugh , my trick worked ! Lol
But now , see , I'm in Singapore , studying in NAFA , hahaha .
My trick 'works' here . Lol

Something



            The first time I met her was when I moved to this city , in literature class . I saw her sitting alone on the desk . I approached her slowly , then I stared at her . She kept being quiet , never stared back at me . I didn’t know whether it’s because of her never notice me or  because she didn’t want to be friendly with me . So , then I decided to start the conversation first .
            “Hi , may I sit beside you ?” I asked her with friendly face .
            She then slowly looked at me and didn’t say anything , just stared at me from my head to my toes , then slowly nodded . She then kept staring at my face . It made me feel a bit uncomfortable , then I asked her something while I rubbed my cheek with my palm .
            “What’s wrong ? Did you see dust or something on my face ? I’m sorry , before I came to this class , I helped my friend in English class to move the old books from the bookshelf to library … What’s your name ? I’m Cynthia …”
            She’s quiet for a while , then looked at my hand , looked at me again , and then shook my hand slowly .
            “I’m Rainy… ,” she answered with that little smile on her lips .
            “Rainy ? Wow , your name is so beautiful , do you know why your name is Rainy ?”
            She shook her head and then said ,” I don’t care why my parents gave me that name , but I do care about my life , I feel that every day is a rainy day in my life , not sunny day , no summer , only rainy …”
            I smiled , I thought that literature class must be her best choice , I knew that already from the way she talked .
            Day by day was passed , and I always met her in literature class . We became closer and closer , and she became more open to me . Sometimes , during the recess time , she came visit me in English class or French class , and then after I finished my class , she went to canteen together with me .
            Slowly , I knew about her family . She’s the only child in her family . Her mother , a teacher in elementary school , got a divorce from her father when she was still 10 years old . A year ago , her mother married a man who works in Kanada but sometimes comes back to this city to visit her mom and her . Normally , once a month , her father must be home to visit her and her mother .
            One day , when we were still eating together in school canteen , there’s something that made me shocked . There were some red marks on her both hands , it looked like someone hit her with a cane . So , without any hesitate , I asked her , about what had happened to her hands . First , she rejected to answer me , but after a few times persuading her , she finally answered me .
            “I got this because I failed my mathematic test two days ago . My mom was angry , so she used the cane to hit my hands …”
            I was surprised . I never guessed before that her mother treated her like that . Then , slowly she said that it’s not just her hands that her mother hit , but also her back . She cried after she told me about that . She said that nobody else she could share about this with besides me . So , after that I helped her by applying a cooling cream to her hands and back . After school , I offered her to accompany her going back home . She rejected my offer . I nodded , then we went to the bus stop , when she stopped the bus , I also stopped the same bus . We were both surprised , so far , we didn’t know each other’s address . Then she asked about my address , and when I mentioned it , she was surprised . She said that actually we stayed in the same apartment , just got different level . So strange , I never realized before that she stayed in the same apartment with me , or maybe because I always went home late before , only today I went home quite early , because my Dad was coming to visit me from Canada . Yes , my parents both working in Canada since I was 3 years old , but they always come visit me every 3 months or sometimes once in a month . I also often talk to them via web cam every night .
            Reaching our apartment , I hugged her before we went to the different directions . When I opened my apartment’s door , I saw my Dad there . I ran and hugged him , I missed him very much after 3 months no seeing him . We talked for a while , asking about each other’s condition and then I told him about Rainy . He was a bit shocked when I told him about Rainy .
            “Dad ? What’s wrong ? Do you know Rainy ?”
            He didn’t answer , just smiling , and then he shook his head slowly . A few days after he came visit me , my Dad had to go back to Canada , but unluckily , I couldn’t send him to airport , because I had to attend class . So , I just hugged him , said bye , and he took a cab to airport .
           
            That night was unforgettable night for me . The night that cut my heart deeply . When she knocked my door and when I opened the door for her . I was so shocked , when I saw her wrists full of blood and she cried so loud . I helped her to go inside my living room and immediately got a first aid box and covered her wounds with bandage .
            “Rainy , what happened ??”
            “Cynthia … I… I’m… “
            “What happened , Rainy ?? Just tell me , okay ? Be honest …”
            “I’m… pregnant …”
            After that , she fainted . So I tried to wake her up by shaking her body , but always failed , then I carried her to my bed room and after she conscious , I gave her a glass of water .
            “Rainy , what actually happened ?? As I know , you don’t have boyfriend , right ? So , who made you pregnant ?”
            She then dropped her tears slowly , then she answered “It’s actually my step father . He raped me since I was 15 . Last month when he came visit me , my mom wasn’t at home , so he used that chance to rape me again . Today I checked my urine using test pack and I saw the result was positive . No wonder my period’s late . ..”
            “What ???”
            She then cried so loud again . I hugged her . After she calmed down , she saw my family portrait in a small frame beside my bed . She was shocked after she saw the photo . She grabbed my arm and asked me to go with her .
            “Cynthia , come on !! We have to go to my house now !!”
            “What’s wrong , Rainy ??”
            “Come one !! Just go !!”
            So I followed her . When we reached there , I saw one familiar man was inside and was flirting with a woman that I never met before .
            “Daddy !!!” I shouted at him .
            “Cyn… Cynthia ??” he was shocked also seeing me .
            “Cynthia , is that your Dad ? He’s my step father !” said Rainy .
            I ran away , leaving them . My heart felt so damn hurt . So many questions running inside my mind . Did my Mother know about this ?? Did my father divorce my mother ? Why this thing must happened to me ?? Why it must be Rainy ?? Why ?? Why ??

Sesuatu



Pertama kali aku berjumpa dengannya adalah ketika pertama kali aku pindah ke kota ini , di dalam kelas sastra . Aku melihatnya duduk sendiri , di bangku paling belakang . Kudekati dirinya perlahan , lalu aku menatapnya sejenak . Dia tetap diam tak bergeming , sama sekali tidak menoleh kepadaku . Entah karena dia tidak menyadari kehadiranku di sana atau karena dia tidak ingin bersikap ramah kepadaku . Lalu , kuputuskan untuk memulai percakapan terlebih dahulu .
            “Hai , boleh aku duduk di sebelahmu ?” tanyaku ramah .
            Dia kemudian perlahan menoleh ke arahku dan tidak menjawab sama sekali , hanya memandangku dari kepala hingga ke ujung kakiku , lalu mengangguk perlahan . Dia lalu menatap wajahku lekat . Hal itu sedikit membuatku merasa tidak nyaman , lalu aku bertanya kembali kepadanya sambil mengusap-usap wajahku “Ada apa ? Ada debu di wajahku ? Maaf ya , sebelum aku tiba di kelas ini , aku sempat membantu temanku di kelas bahasa Inggris , memindahkan buku-buku bekas yang sudah berdebu ke perpustakaan … Namamu siapa ? Aku Cynthia ..”
            Dia terdiam sejenak , lalu memandang tanganku , kemudian kembali menatapku dan menjabat tanganku lemah .
            “Aku Rainy…,” jawabnya dengan senyum tipis di bibirnya .
            “Rainy ? Wah , namamu indah sekali , apakah kau tahu mengapa namamu Rainy ?”
            Dia menggeleng , lalu menjawab ,”Aku tidak peduli mengapa orang tuaku memberiku nama seperti itu , yang jelas , aku merasa , setiap hari adalah hujan di dalam hidupku , tiada hari yang cerah , tiada musim panas , yang ada hanyalah musim hujan…”
            Aku kemudian tersenyum , rupanya kelas sastra memang cocok untuknya , karena dari cara berbicaranya pun , aku sudah mengetahuinya .
            Hari demi hari terlewati , dan aku pun terus berjumpa dengannya di kelas sastra . Kami semakin akrab , dan dia menjadi semakin terbuka kepadaku . Sering kali , ketika bel istirahat berbunyi dan aku masih sibuk di kelas bahasa Inggris atau bahasa Perancis , dia akan datang ke kelasku dan menungguku di depan kelas dengan sabar . Setelah aku selesai , barulah kita bersama-sama menuju kantin .
            Sedikit demi sedikit , aku mengetahui tentang keluarganya . Dia adalah anak tunggal di keluarganya . Ibunya yang bekerja sebagai seorang guru SD bercerai dengan ayah kandungnya ketika ia masih berusia 10 tahun . Kemudian setahun silam , ibunya menikah dengan seorang pria yang bekerja di Kanada , namun terkadang datang ke rumahnya untuk menengok ibunya dan dia . Kira-kira sebulan sekali ayah tirinya pasti pulang ke rumahnya .
            Pada suatu hari , ketika kami sedang makan siang bersama di kantin sekolah , ada satu hal yang mengejutkanku . Ada bekas merah-merah di kedua tangannya , seperti ada seseorang yang telah memukulinya dengan rotan . Lalu aku pun dengan tidak ragu-ragu bertanya kepadanya , apa yang telah terjadi dengan tangannya . Pertama , dia menolak untuk menjawab . Namun setelah beberapa kali aku membujuknya , akhirnya dia menjawab .
            “Ini aku dapat karena aku gagal dalam ulangan matematika dua hari yang lalu . Ibuku marah , lalu dia memukul tanganku dengan rotan … ,”
            Aku terkejut mendengarnya . Tak pernah kuduga ibunya begitu keras kepadanya . Lalu , dengan perlahan , dia berkata bahwa bukan hanya tangannya yang terkena pukul , namun juga punggungnya . Dia menangis tersedu-sedu setelah mengatakannya . Katanya , tiada orang lain yang bisa mendengar keluhannya selain aku . Maka setelahnya , aku membantunya dengan membalurkan krim pendingin kulit di kedua tangan dan punggungnya . Sepulang sekolah , aku menawarkan kepadanya untuk mengantarnya pulang . Dia kemudian menolakku halus . Aku hanya mengangguk , lalu kami berjalan bersama menuju bus stop dan ketika dia menyetop bus , aku pun menyetop bus yang sama . Kami sama-sama terkejut , selama ini kami tidak pernah mengetahui alamat satu sama lain . Lalu dia bertanya di mana aku tinggal , dan ketika aku menyebutkan tempat tinggalku , dia terkejut . Dia berkata bahwa selama ini kami tinggal di tempat yang sama , ya , kami sebenarnya satu apartemen , hanya saja , kami berbeda satu lantai . Heran , mengapa kami tidak pernah bertemu di apartemen kami . Atau mungkin karena sebelum ini , kami tidak pernah pulang bersama . Aku terbiasa meninggalkan sekolah selepas pukul 7 malam , karena aku harus menyelesaikan beberapa laporan atau terkadang harus menghadiri rapat di klub teater , namun hari ini aku pulang lebih awal karena mendengar bahwa ayahku akan pulang dari Kanada . Ya , kedua orang tuaku bekerja di Kanada sejak aku berusia 3 tahun , namun terkadang mereka datang menengokku sekitar 3 bulan sekali . Ayah lebih sering datang menengokku , karena pekerjaan Ibu lebih sibuk daripada pekerjaan Ayah . Aku juga sering mengobrol melalui kamera web setiap malam dengan mereka .
            Setibanya di apartemen kami , aku memeluknya sebelum kami berpisah . Ketika aku membuka pintu apartemenku , telah kujumpai ayahku di sana . Aku lalu berlari memeluknya . Aku sangat merindukannya , setelah tiga bulan tak berjumpa dengannya . Kami bercakap-cakap sejenak , menanyakan kabar satu sama lain , lalu aku bercerita kepadanya tentang Rainy . Beliau sedikit terkejut ketika aku menyebut nama Rainy .
            “Ayah , ada apa ? Ayah tahu Rainy ?” tanyaku .
            Beliau tidak menjawab , hanya tersenyum , lalu menggeleng perlahan .
            Beberapa hari setelah ayah datang , dia berpamitan kepadaku dan dia akan terbang kembali ke Kanada . Sayangnya aku tak bisa mengantarnya , karena aku harus pergi ke sekolah . Maka aku hanya memeluknya dan mengucapkan selamat tinggal , beliau lalu naik taksi untuk pergi ke bandara .
           
            Malam itu adalah malam yang tak terlupakan bagiku . Malam yang menyayat hatiku begitu dalam . Ketika ia mengetuk pintu apartemenku , dan ketika aku membuka pintu itu . Sungguh , aku terkejut , kala melihatnya dengan pergelangan tangan penuh darah dan dia menangis deras . Aku membantunya masuk ke dalam dan segera menutup pintu . Segera kuambil kotak P3K dan membalut pergelangan tangannya dengan kain kasa .
            “Rainy , ada apa ??” tanyaku .
            “Cynthia , aku… aku…”
            “Ada apa , Rainy ?? Ayo katakan , jujur saja padaku …”
            “Aku … Hamil …”
            Dia lalu menangis kencang dan meronta-ronta . Aku berusaha menenangkannya , ku berlalri menuju dapur dan mengambilkan segelas air putih untuknya . Ketika aku kembali ke tempat dia berbaring , kulihat dia telah pingsan . Kucoba menyadarkannya dengan menggoncang-goncang tubuhnya , tetap saja tak ada reaksi . Maka , kuputuskan untuk menunggunya hingga dia sadar sambil terus mengecek nafasnya .
            Tepat sekitar dua jam setelah dia pingsan , dia sadar , kusodorkan segelas air putih kepadanya . Kini dia telah berbaring di atas tempat tidurku , karena aku tidak tega melihatnya tergeletak di atas lantai ruang tamuku .
            “Rainy , katakanlah , apa yang telah terjadi ? Setahuku , kau tidak mempunyai kekasih ? Lalu bagaimana kau bisa hamil ?”
            Dia kemudian perlahan menitikkan air matanya . Kubiarkan ia menangis , kubiarkan dia tenang dahulu , sambil kupeluk dirinya , berusaha menenangkan dirinya . Setelah dia berhenti menangis , dia menjelaskan kepadaku .
            “Aku… aku… hamil oleh benih dari ayah tiriku… “ jawabnya sambil sesenggukan .
            “Apa ??? “
            “Iya… dia telah memerkosaku sejak aku masih berusia 15 tahun , hingga sebulan lalu ketika dia pulang dari Kanada , dan ibu sedang tidak ada di rumah , dia mengambil kesempatan itu untuk memerkosaku kembali . Lalu , hari ini aku mencoba menggunakan alat check kehamilan , karena aku terlambat datang bulan , dan hasilnya positif …”
            Dia lalu menangis kencang lagi , aku memeluknya erat . Memang , aku tidak pernah merasakan apa yang dia alami , namun sebagai wanita , aku mengetahui bagaimana rasa sakit yang sedang dirasakan oleh Rainy .
            Sejenak setelah ia berhenti menangis , dia menengok ke arah foto keluarga kecil yang kuletakkan di meja di tepi tempat tidurku . Ya , foto keluargaku ketika aku sedang berlibur ke Kanada bersama orang tuaku . Entah apa yang terjadi , sejenak setelah memandang foto keluarga itu , Rainy langsung menarik lenganku .
            “Cynthia , ayo ! Kita harus segera ke rumahku , ayo kita pergi sekarang !!”
            “Rainy , ada apa ?”
            “Ayo , kita pergi !!”
            Aku menuruti ajakannya dan ketika aku tiba di rumahnya , aku seolah mendapat kejutan listrik . Kulihat seseorang yang telah kukenal sejak aku terlahir di dunia ini sedang bermesraan dengan seorang wanita yang sama sekali belum pernah kujumpai .
            “Ayah !!!” teriakku marah .
            “Cyn…Cynthia ??” tanya ayahku dengan wajah pucat .
            “Cynthia , apa dia ayahmu ?? Dia… ayah tiriku …,” ujar Rainy dengan lirih .
            Aku lalu berlari kencang meninggalkan mereka . Hatiku sakit , seolah disayat-sayat dengan ribuan pisau . Ayahku … Aku tidak pernah menduga dia begitu tega melakukan hal ini kepadaku , juga kepada Ibuku . Beribu pertanyaan berlarian di dalam otakku . Apakah Ibuku mengetahui akan hal ini ? Apakah Ayah dan Ibu telah bercerai ? Mengapa hal ini harus terjadi kepadaku ? Mengapa harus Rainy ? Mengapa ?? Mengapa ???

Outing with Last Hostel Mates

Today , I went to Nex mall at Serangoon with last hostel mates . So crazy sia , long time no seeing them , and today we talked like crazy , hahaha .
Actually , earlier before today , they planned to go to Vivo city at Harbour Front , but then they cancelled it , because one of our hostel mates must go to work , and his work place is in Tampines , too far from Harbour Front . So , then okay I asked my roommate also whether it was okay for her to meet them in Serangoon , she also stayed in Bartley before . Then she said it's okay . So then we went to the bus stop to go to MRT station . At first she asked me to take bus to go to Novena MRT station , but then I suggested her to go Little India station only , since it's purple line , same with Serangoon , so no need to change train . She agreed , so we went there , and then took MRT to Serangoon .
Reaching Serangoon , we then said hello to each other first , then one of my last hostel mates named Lydia , from Malaysia , she asked "Okay , so where do you guys want to eat ? Want Chinese food , or Italian , or European , Japanese ? Or anything else ?" Then , while the others were still thinking , I shouted "Let's eat African food !!" They laughed like crazy when they heard that , hahaha . I was like oops , haha , my craziness just started , haha .
So then they decided to eat at Swensen's . Before that , everybody said that they got no budget problem , I also thought like that , a bit broke though , coz must redo redo and bloody redo my final project for second semester , but when we all saw the menu , we realized that we really got budget problem . I mean , for international student budget , the price there was quite expensive . I think the cheapest one was SGD 6.90 ? That's side dish only , and wouldn't make you full . So then one of the last hostel mates , named Justin (from Malaysia) , said "Well , I guess now I got budget problem , just by reading the menu , I feel full already .." Then we all laughed , ya lor , so ex sia ...
Then , no choice , we called the waitress to order the foods . I order the Mac and Cheese , it's SGD 13.50 , wah liao , really I'm broke now . Two days ago I already spent SGD 39.80 to redo my final project... Well , dunno what to explain to my Dad when I ask him to send me money again on Monday ... Haha well it's ok la I guess , once in one month eat something expensive . So then after that while waiting for the lunch , Lydia and Justin sang a Malay song , and they said that there's something like politic problem in Malaysia , the politicians got some sex scandal but actually that's only fake video made by the other party to make another party became a loser or something . Well , same as in Indonesia , also like that one .
Then after that Lydia started reminding us about her last roommate in Bartley .
Lydia : Hey , you still remember my roommate in Bartley ? That Russian one , Maria , remember ?
Me : OMG ! That forbidden scene ! Hahaha
Srishti : Ya , I still remember the voice of her bf everyday came visit her .
Lydia : Ya lor , that time , her bf stripped inside my dark room and then jumped on her and slept with her . Then when I turned on the lamp , he directly covered his eyes and said 'the light ! the light ! Oh please turn off the light !! ' Then I asked him 'I'm sorry , Sir , where do you stay ? Please go back to your room ' Then he said 'Oh I stay in Marina Bay , I come here everyday to visit Maria ' then he talked something in Russian , I didn't understand .
We all then laughed . Ya , that Russian roommate , OMG , almost did that 'thing' inside her room sia . Wah liao , I also remember last time I got this Mongolian roommate , she often went clubbing in Clarke Quay , and once she brought guy to hostel and asked him to get into her room . Then after they talked for a while , she went out of the room dunno where she went . Then I was so damn scared sia . Scared what if he touched me or something , so then I texted Jessica , my hostel mate , to come to my room . I pretended to sleep at that time so could still text my hostel mate . The she opened my door and pretended to wake me up . Then she talked to him and me . Lucky got her inside the hostel .
Then the next thing happened was they started reminding each other about the 'family tree' we made in hostel . Once , in Bartley , when I was still sitting inside Srishti's room , chatting , then Jessica came inside there , and she saw us eating chips . Then she also asked for some chips . Then we gave her lor . After that , we just realized that she should not eat too much chips coz she can get sore throat easily . Then Justin suddenly came to Srishti's room also . He saw her eating too much chips , then he scolded her "Hey , you shouldn't eat chips too much ! You have bad sore throat ! " Then they started arguing , like husband and wife . That's why since then I called them as Mom and Dad . I'm the daughter . Hahaha , since then I called Srishti as my grandma and Lydia as my grandpa , coz she dresses like a guy , so Srishti took her like her husband . Lol . Then I got a lots of father , coz Jessica is close to so many guys . Then Justin always be so fussy about her , like giving comment on her make up , clothes , etc . He gives comment to nobody but Jessica , that's why we always address them as husband and wife . Hahaha he's Jessica's first husband , she still got like 9 other husbands , hahaha . Then once Lydia asked me "What's your comment about your mom having so many husbands ?" I just said "Well , to me everything is okay , I can get more pocket money from my fathers , hahaha "
Crazy answer , lol .
Then they started talking about me and they guy I had a crush on when I was staying in Bartley . His name is Rong Kai (almost same name with my current bf , he got Kai also for his name ) . Then my last hostel mate and she's my classmate also , Srishti , told everyone that I got bf already . They were surprised and they congratulated me also . Then they asked about his name , so I told them . When they knew his name , they laughed and asked me whether is it coincidence or what . Then I said that it's a coincidence , haha . Then they also asked me to show them the pic of my current bf and they were like "Aaaa so cute !! Really , you both look compatible !" Then I said "Really ? Thanks !!"
Then Lydia asked "How old is he ?"
Then I haven't answered yet and Srishti already said "He's 25 .."
Then she asked again "Is he a student ? Or working now ?"
Then I answered "He's a student "
"Where does he study ?"
"NUS "
They were surprised and even my roommate said "OMG , that's good , you know ?? Actually that's my dream school !"
After that we talked about Jessica's last experience in Bartley . Got this Indian guy liked her and then she said that he said about something dirty .
Jessica : I guess he just wanted to sleep with girls , not to have serious relationship . He said that Indian's p***s is bigger than the Westerns one .
I was shocked hearing that . OMG , he thought that Jessica chooses guy only from that 'part' ?? So shallow !! I know Jessica's taste in choosing guy is western people but it doesn't that 'thing' lah !
Then after that we talked about her useless husband a.k.a Justin . Jessica got a lots of 'husband' and then he said "Don't worry , I also got plenty of wife" We were all shocked , then we laughed , and asked him who are the 'wives' and he said that his wives are his laptop , phone , and games . Hahaha crazy husband . Poor my 'Mom' got useless 'Husband' , lol .
After that after finished eating , we went to different places so we said bye to each other . I went to church after that . Well , such a crazy outing , remembering about last time experiences in last hostel in Bartley . Hahaha well actually so many things we talked about , just that I can't remember all of them .
Well , it's ok la , next time can hang out again I guess , lol .
Such a crazy conversation , we had .

Hmmm well , I guess he hasn't come yet , so then my friend text him and he replied "OMG , I forgot that today is Friday , I thought today is Thursday , I just woke up !" I was like ,,, omg , seriously ?? Then he came at 2.00 PM , 3 hours late , nice sia , where does he stay anyway ? Batam ? Lol , 3 hours to go to my campus . But , good also , because he's late so we all didn't need to do the presentation , just needed to submit the mood boards and sketchbooks , then went back to school at 4.00 PM to take the projects back . So , ya , I went to eat Pasta at Pastamania in Plaza Singapura with my classmate (read : best friend ) . We went by MRT coz she said that last night she was drunk so today still not well , then while taking MRT , she said that she missed taking train from yellow line , coz last time we used to take circle line MRT to go back to our hostel in Bartley from school . The smell also different , the smell of MRT for circle line . Lol , then reaching Pastamania , we ate there and talked . Then we discussed as well about tomorrow's outing with last hostel friends . I know it's gonna be fun , gathering with friends from last hostel . Then after that , I took away my pasta coz I felt so full , then she asked me to put the pasta inside my bag . Then now my bag smells like Pasta... Yeah , got pasta fragrance... Haha

Being a Good Runner of the Day

Yeah , guess today I was a good runner , coz I ran everywhere .
First , I woke up early (whoa , holiday can wake up early , actually that's a miracle for my parents ) , then I took a bath with sleepy eyes and almost fell a sleep inside the bathroom . Then I went to school , to finish my drawing of back view for my 6 illustrations . After I finished , then I went to computer lab inside my campus to scan , but then I saw my senior was still using the scanner , so I ran to Art Friend in Bras Basah complex to buy 3 mounting boards , to stick my additional technical flat drawings . After that I ran to Waterloo to take away fried kway teow for my lunch . Then after that I ran back to school coz I left my stuffs inside the computer lab . Then I saw my senior was still sitting near the scanner , so I asked her whether she's still using the scanner of no , but she said no , so I used it to scan my illustrations . After it , I used the computer to edit and rearrange my illustrations for my final project in this "impressive" semester . I took around 30 minutes doing it , then I ran to the printing shop to print on sticker papers , I spent SGD 18.00 for it , but something bad happened , because I stick them on my last mounting boards , I mean on those mounting boards already got my last illustrations stick there , so ya , I could still see through my last illustrations , it didn't look nice , so then I asked my lecturer via What's app whether it's okay or not , then he said that he suggest me to redo (again...) so I ran back to computer lab to *censor* then I ran back to Art Friend to get 6 more mounting boards and ran to printing shop again to print (again...) it made me spend SGD 14.00 , what a beautiful day ... I could guarantee that aunty almost laughed seeing me print again the illustrations . Yeah , for the sake of my mark (read : my future and my life in NAFA) , I will sacrifice my money . Lucky my father didn't ask me the detail about how much I spent my money for it , if he knew , he'd literally kill me . Oh no...
After that I ran back to computer lab and almost threw up . Dunno why . My best friend even asked me whether I was ok or no . Then I answered her "Half half..."
Well , too much sweat sia , then no appetite to eat dinner also , too tired ...
After that ran to Plaza Singapura , to buy Koi (my mood booster) then ran to SingTel shop to top up my balance then ran to bus stop and yeah I'm here now ...
What a day...

I Don't Mean to Say Like that Though...

Well ... Just now my Mom called me . I guess she always knows exactly about what I feel right now , that's why she didn't talk too much , or judge me too much , just a short conversation .
She asked me about my body size I sent her two days ago , she wanted to order a dress from a seamstress for me . Then she asked "Hey , are you sure your body size is correct ? Why your bust size is small size , and your hip is large size ? Your bust is 89 cm correct ? Go measure your hip again , please ?"
She asked me in the wrong timing I guess . I'm sorry for my Mom , I answered you not in a nice way . I'm tired now , tired all the way tired , physically and psychologically . So at first I just said that it's correct , I'm way too lazy to measure again , but she kept forcing me to measure till then I said "Mom , if the seamstress can't make that size , it's okay , I don't really need that dress as well , just tell her it's okay , no need to make for me , that's all . Finish right ?"
My Mom then said "Hush , your words so sharp sia , okay okay then , I leave you alone first , don't think too much , life must go on !"
Yeah , she always knows everything , her feeling is way so sharp . She said "Two weeks only , it's not a big deal..."
Yeah , right , not a big deal ...Talk is cheap though... Oh ,  I still remember my mom's friend from Indonesia , she got American husband and my Mom said that they dated for 7 years through e-mails only , but then , see how strong they are ? She said "Through e-mails , okay ? Not What's app , what's app is still much easier , but emails ? Can you imagine how slow communicating through e-mails in the past time ?? But can still got married , if they can go through it , 7 years , is 2 weeks difficult for you ?" So I was like... hmmm speechless , right , 2 weeks compared to 7 years ... Like a nothing sia... Really want to meet her and her husband in real , but they stay in USA , so far sia , but if I could meet , I did want to ask , how they could maintain 7 years of relationship through e-mails ?? As I remember , my Mom said that her friend met the husband once only while she was in student exchange program to USA or something , then they exchanged e-mails and kept in contact till yeah then after 7 years of relationship got married . Hmmm sounds impossible but it's a true story ... Their trust for each other must be really damn strong...
I hope I can maintain my relationship also ,,, have a strong trust between us , and ya , understanding towards each other ...
Anyway...
FML , I spent SGD 39.80 just to REDO my final project in this "impressive" semester . Hmmm , okay , what's done is done ... let bygones be bygones ...

Lonely Day part 1

Well ...
Yeah , Iguess today is the first day of lonely days . I don't feel that well today , half of my soul feels like flying away to somewhere else . Shit , I dunno her number also , so can't call her back (Yeah , my best friend just now asked me also what did I mean by cannot calling 'her' back , calling who ? Well , I mean can't call half of my soul to go back to me , understand or no ? If don't understand , nvm la , sometimes I also don't understand about my self ...) .
Hmmm , ya , I know life has a lots of colours , and my biggest thanks to whom who already coloured my life . My life is so damn colourful sia .
Why lonely ? Hmmm if anyone got ask me that question , I'm gonna answer that it's because he's going to face a 'war' . Who ? Of course my dearest lovely cute bf . See , just now my best friend asked me ,"War ? What war ?" I answered her "Hmmm the big war in his uni but gonna finish in two weeks time , so yeah... I'm waiting ... gonna be miss waiting and miss okay ..."
She was like ,"Aiyoh , you start your dramatic thingy again ..."
I was like ,,, yeah my life is so damn musical and dramatic ... But the other side of me , it's different , it's so damn 'wah' and energetic . Yeah , AB blood typed people are always like that one . They have two opposite personalities in the same body . Well... that's really me .
Well , at least I give him everything that he wants as long as I can give . So , ya , I think he needs... space ... for the next two weeks . Okay , I'm giving him space lor , I don't disturb him first , better be like that I guess . Let's see where is the limit of my patience of giving him space .
I even told my mom that , yeah , in being in relationship , we can't just anyhow force our partner to do what we want , we better give more than accept more . That's why I never force my partner to do everything that I want , which means , I want my partner to treat me the same ways as well . Action = reaction .
Then my mom said "Well , it's okay , you have already grown up , so I guess you know already about how to behave and how to decide something ... Just let it be , just let life happens ... "
Yeah... I guess she's right also ...
Well okay...
Let's cheer up my self , gonna walk around Plaza Singapura or Bugis alone later . Enjoying time ...

Becoming a Pervert

Lol , it's not just guys can be a pervert . Actually girls can also be lor .
For example me and my classmates . Ya , last time when I stayed in Bartley , coz it's very far from school , Bras Basah (11 stations away from Bartley) , we used to be so sleepy inside the MRT . So then to avoid falling asleep , we normally stared at people's clothes . We became like a pervert you know ? Just anyhow stared at people's clothes , just to identify what kind of fabrics the wore , lol . Once we stared , normally if the person had known about it , confirm they would have thought that we're a pervert , but that didn't happen . Coz we stared for quite a long time , and we discussed as well . For example what kind of neckline it was , what fabric , what kind of armholes , what kind of cuff , etc . Hahaha
Once I stared at one ang moh man with French cuff on his shirt . Then I told my class mate who used to stay in the same hostel with me in Bartley . She then stared also at the cuff . Then we discussed about French cuff along the way to school .
Crazy sia . Even till now this habit is still continued between us , fashion students . lol
In campus , it's so free , we can just anyhow pull someone's skirt (but must be classmates hor , if you dunno her then anyhow pull , she'll get shocked ) and check what kind of fabric it is , why so nice , etc . Hahaha
Pervert girls .
