Funny Dream

dEaR jUmJuM...

okay last night i had the weirdest dream. my parents announced that they bought a "really nice place" in damansara and ordered us to pack our stuff up- we were leaving 1st thing in the morning. the weird part was that i didnt kick up a fuss or anything about having to move to another state again. instead i was like, oh cool lalala go pack me stuff. and i didnt even tell anybody.

next thing i know val, zac and i were walking from room to room discussing the pro's and con's of each. the next weird thing- val insisted on sleeping with my parents! oh dear. when i started to unpack only did i realise that i didnt pack any of my clothes. @@ then there was this piano left by the previous owners in the living room n i was all, hey! why dont i go play a song. when i opened it, i was damn shocked to see that all the black keys were made up of forks and spoons.

my gosh.

Letting go.

dEaR jUmJuM...

okay.

so my mum's family used to be really poor and they lived in this government owned flat- KMC flats on ban hock road. (well actually most of the people living there aren't that poor anymore, they're just used to living there) even after my mum and her siblings became financially stable they still kept the flat because well, my grandma loved that place and you couldnt expect a woman her age to give up the house she raised her kids in maa. and well, it's been a few years since my grandma passed away now. so my mum and her siblings decided it was high time to give it up for some poor family who really needs it, however much they are still attached to it.

so today after finishing off my exams at school, my mum brought z and i there to pick up some stuff. z was like, "ma, dont you feel sad?" and my mum was all, "ah well. we dont really need it anyway." so yeah.

when we were still living in semenanjung and came back for CNYs, we would stay there. and honestly speaking i kinda loathed that place. it had cracked tiles, peeled off paint, mice running inside the ceiling at night, AND a crazy woman who lives downstairs, yelling and singing at random (seriously. apparently some guy broke her heart when she was young and she never recovered.) but you know, no matter how much i disliked that place i still feel sad. mm..oh well.

when i was young, i'd dangle stuff from this spot (pic below) to the ground three stories down (pic above) and amuse myself by watching my mum go down to pick it =)

i remember there was once i thought that there was only that piece of cloth in the doorway and barged in, only to hit my head on the hidden door =(

29 may 10...Kids Nowadays

dEaR jUmJuM...

kids nowadays!

am babysitting my cousins- 6 and 9 year old girl and boy,

and i realised that all they did the whole morning was playing with their DS, gameboy, computer and watching tv.

aideeee.

they cant seem to entertain themselves in any OTHER way!

they turned down my offer to draw or read something educational...

so i set a compulsory half hour break from any electronic screen at hour intervals.

which got me thinking- when i was young we didnt have all this tech-y stuff at our disposal!

we had to entertain ourselves!

in my case, three cartoons a day would have earn you a scolding..

which was why i used to draw a lot.

and write stories.

and read tons of Enid Blyton.

and make a "home" out of the sofas, pillows and blankets.

and draw on my barbie dolls.

and line my toy cars into perfectly straight lines with "monitors" at both ends.

MUCH more holistic, if you ask me =)

i pity them..

*atm*

Enemy turns friend.

dEaR jUmJuM...

oh dear.

i haven't updated in almost half a year!!

this has got to be a short one as my mum will kill me if she sees me on the comp now @@

okay so today i learned that sometimes you will turn around, look back at the person you see behind you- you in the past......and laugh.

there was these two people that i didn't really get along with like, 2 years ago..

and back then we were sworn enemies..i always thought that i'll never ever be able to understand, much less forgive them.

and then last night i while i was talking with my dad on the phone and mentioned one of them, my mind went, "hey! we used to hate each other!!"

so yeah. i guess gradually, over time- without me noticing it, quarrels and rows were forgotten, and somewhere along the line we forgave each other.

the end =)

Best Friends

dEaR jUmJuM...

ever since i started going to school, my dad will always randomly ask me this question:

so, who's your best friend now?

and to be honest, i currently don't know..cause i have, like, 5 of my bestest of best friends, and they each are special to me in so many different ways!

first of all, there's miss

freda chen.

straight-forward, critical and mentally psycho da. whenever i tell her something, i can expect the MOST critical response from her, and she isn't afraid to say anything under the sun.so that kinda puts me in my place. but don't get me wrong- she's as loving and caring as a best friend can be. =)

on the contrary, there's miss

suki bong,

who always finds something nice to say- but always truthful. she's so CUTE! plus she and i are both worriers, who think about stuff that concerns the future and mostly out of our hands. so when we get together, we have a LOT to worry about. haha!

then there's

cam teo,

who's the craziest woman i've ever met! especially when she's in "high" mode- she drives me up the wall! she's really really patient, and i'm always throwing the same complaints and embarrassing feelings at her and she's never once tired of listening.

ele jong

is the one that always gives me advice on whatever i have to say. she's always willing to give a helping hand and hardly turns anyone down. also, she's the one to look for when u wanna talk nonsense with. LOL

then there's my best guy friend since primary school-

nard sim.

he's the funniest fellow who shares a lot with me and always gives me his guy opinions. sometimes i think he's the male version of me!

so u tell me- how can i choose? =)
