been a tiring week..

meet with the Cfers for durians at geylang. That place is overrated at times but it was the company that made it all worth while. after that, we took a trip down to mich's place and chatted a little longer. i must have felt pretty drained for when i curled up against the sofa, i really felt like sleeping.

kinda feel bad 'cos i did that at ansen's place before. it was a farewell party for him and debz and yet, i curled up on his bed and promptly fell asleep. the sports camp before that had drained me pretty much. i really need to catch up on some sleep. maybe i can get more on the trip across the silly causeway tmr when i head over to JB with the CFers.

anywayz, after that night, joshua said that i remind him of a baby koala. great. first cheong calls me hamster in the cupboard. yc says i'm a squirrel. i got called a racoon (raKooN.. geddit? damn lame.. ahahah) in JC. now i'm a baby koala. just because i like to cling to arms. apparantly, he got the idea at steph's bday where i clung onto Jane's arm.

fine, i admit. those animals are the some of the cutest little critters i know. but.. why am i being associated with tiny marsupials and rodents? (insert crying emoticon ala msn)

'nuf said. i finally got my wireless mouse. went down to sim lim this morning with yong to look for her laptop bag. we walked a few stores and the bags were $20++. upon finding a nice one at $15, she promptly bought it. then she got worried wondering if the lappie wld fit. so we went in search of her current fujitsu laptop. we found a store and happily walked in, looking for her model.

"Were we in this shop just now?" I asked her, feeling awkward suddenly. She turned to me, brows slightly furrowed...

"Can I help you?" (oh the grammatical errors of the service industry.. it's "MAY I HELP YOU")

anywayz, yong turned and lo and behold, this young man was eagerly waiting to serve us. she asked for her model and he directed us to it. Deep inside, i'm secretly hoping that he would leave us alone so that we could quickly compare the size before running out. no.. my sweet little sister takes the cover out and proceeds to tell him the reason of us entering the shop. i'm wishing the ground opens up.

when we finally leave the store, i looked at her.

"That was embarrassing. But that wasn't the guy who served us the first time right?"

"It was him. i nearly died when i saw him," she affirmed.

congratulations. i seem to get myself into nonsensical situations. no one does it better than me, i guess. why do i get myself into fixes like that?

for the rest of the week, i'm pretty much booked. got the trip up to JB on monday, gym and ktv on tuesday, afterglow on wed, work on thurs (7am-12pm and 3pm-7pm in the gym. visit me!!) and packing on fri. then it's off to taiwan for 6 days! can't wait for some time alone. =)
