so much for new year excitement. it almost seems as though nothing much has changed from the days of studying / taking the good ole a's. because i'm embarassingly unemployed (and still am, though i have a job on saturday hahaha), and at the rate i'm going, i have really good work experience as a...

homemaker. oh the horror yes, i've been doing housework for my mum (i have nothing much to do anyway -.-) and helping out with dinner, stuff like that. haha looks like markky's brilliant idea is coming true: fail a levels, go marry a rich man and become a tai tai for the rest of my life. only problem is, tai tais don't do much housework, they have maids hurhur. but well, if i'm going to get some form of allowance for doing the housework, and if i'm going to lose weight or something, well, then it's worth it. anyway, it's fun, therapeutic. that was my break during a level mug time anyway (:

in other news, i have this ulcer on my gum that's been around for about a week. and it uber hurts urgh. haha just needed to rant it out somewhere urgh hurts real bad.

so, today was kind of an interesting day. haha, let me talk about my cbd adventure.

i had to pop down to vch to pick up my grade 8 cert, and brilliant me had to pick the time after my bus concession expires to do it. so anyway, getting to vch was the easy part. the difficult part was getting home.

you see, in the cbd, not every traffic light has a pedestrian crossing. in the cbd, not every overhead bridge is open. in the cbd, there are a lot of roads that are single direction. this means, getting home is not about crossing the road and getting to the busstop where the buses go in the opposite direction. so i randomly walked around the cbd area after getting my cert, because they closed the clifford pier overhead bridge and i was highly discouraged to jaywalk in my ac shirt (yes, i still where the tomato shirt). so, round round round, i amazed myself with my rather superb sense of direction and bearing, and got myself home. that's not bad hurhur.

the cbd's like my brain now. central / confusing brain / business district. not knowing what to do while friends find something to do, get a job and make themselves useful while life spins around me. and i have to go down there again tomorrow. and it's too expensive taking the mrt.

at least i'm a part time 'homemaker' hurhur. that takes some time off my hands.
