K is for Kelly

these few days have been a flurry of events. going for my interview, spending some quality time with my sister, plucking my eyebrows (which hurt a damn lot), celebrating jennifer's birthday, catching fundoshi (which was excellent by the way!), getting my new phone(YAY!!!), catching the graduation hair show which jenn and juleen were involved, yadayada

interview went fine.. it was at golden mile complex, a makeshift office for the time being till they get a bigger one. i'm not keen on it.. cuz there's only two ppl in the office and they are both male and the office for now is located at golen mile complex, where there are loadsa thai workers hanging out or living nearby and.. not really safe for a girl to go home late so there. but there's a thai supermarket! awesomeness. thai instant mee, shocking flavours of lay's potato chips (get this right, they have salmon teriyaki flavoured chips!), cute lil bottles of soft drinks.. it's just amazing in there how it makes u feel like you really stepped into thailand again.. i guess it's the songkran celebration that helped.. haha, but the place was reeking of a mixture of incense, cigarette smoke... so bern and i got out after we took a walk around the place. that boy, came down to accompany me to the interview when he knew i was feeling lost and upset. =) thankyousomuchlahhbaby..

we also made a trip to the army market and walked about.. and got a new top =D it is so cool lah.. everyone should start exploring singapore and see that singapore, actually is quite a cool place afterall. x)

my dear sis was complaining that i didnt spend a lot of time with her after i got together with bern, so i decided that it's time that i fork out some time for her. so we went around chinatown, with her showing me where she found her cute shorts.. then i showed her around.. =D we ate at maxwell market.. the famous boneless chicken rice and my favourite cannot-miss-it-if-i-m-here hum ji pang! then we walked down the street where i used to walk when i was at batey ads for classes and mileage for internship.. =) we walked down pagoda street, browsed through shops and their stuff and there was this particular shop selling bags. i notice kelda seemed interested and i encouraged her to go on in to take a look. then the shopkeeper asked, "where are you from?" we took a look at each other and i said slowly, "we. are. locals." then he broke out into a laughter and said that he couldn't place a finger on our nationality and thought we were thais and he decided to ask before he made a fool outta himself by speaking in a language that's foreign to them.. must be the 199 baht stripey shrug.

next came jennifer's magnum birthday celebration. that girl, lucky lucky girl, got two! one with 1t01 and one with magnum hehe.. reserved a table for us at hard rock, dropped off the cake earlier so bern and i could walk around.. when it was 7:30 we headed for HRC, and was told to wait till a couple of us more arrived. then i start to feel a little panicky, cuz if by 7:45 no one else came, we would have to give up our tables and i dont want that to happen! so thank goodness, everyone reached and we were given a table upstairs.. a refreshing change from the usual.. x) then siti led jennifer here... =D *surprise!* think she didn't expect to see us there.. hehe.. so after eating dinner (which we were bloated by then), came the birthday celebration ;) out came the cake and up went jennifer on the chair while we sang her a birthday song that was so loud that ppl downstairs looked at us for a while. then she had to blow her candles from that distance haha with the help of a straw =P just as she thought it was over, the sundae was served. and since no hardrockers were going to do the dirty job, siti and juleen bravely took it up. siti pushed the cherry deeep down into the whipped cream and asked jennifer to take it out. when she did so, juleen pushed her head lightly into it, but when jennifer struggled, siti pushed the cup upwards whereas juleen pushed jenn's head deeper into the whipped cream! hahaha, caught in such a position =P

and yesterday, i got my new phone! 7370 coffee brown.. it's so pretty! my sister bluetooth-ed several tones to me =D so sweet of her lah. she found me the little mermaid "under the sea" and happy tree friends' theme... and the hulahula song =D and bern bluetooth-ed me our pics which i used as wallpaper and some sms tones.. =D happy happy happy! and i know my mum really loves me when she was willing to get me a N70 because she heard raving reviews about it, but she still let me make my own decisions.. =) and she was in a shopping mood cuz she made quite a pile from stocks/shares and she intended to spend 1000 buckaroos! hehe, so she got herself a new portable dvd player and a electronic dictionary for my younger sister =) and for some reason, we started talking about birthday celebrations.. and i told her that when it comes to my 21st birthday celebration, i want a home-style old school kinda celebration, with my mum's home-prepared food like nuggets and the yummy orange jelly, etc.. haha =P then she was very puzzled and asked, "you dont want to have chalet to celebrate with your friends meh?" i said i dont want and i want her to cook for all my friends! =D then she replied, "you know what is 'd-i-e'? nono, i'll be 'd-e-a-d'. i give you thousand dollars, you go settle yourself." hahaha

fundoshi was gooood =) i shan't spoil it, but if you're catching it, be prepared for nudity scenes and adult content! =D bern and i went to seah st deli to grab a bite before heading down for the hair show.. that place was quaint and pretty! and they had a working jukebox as well.. well, not exactly cuz there was a one dollar coin stuck in it beacuse some goondu never read instructions first so i couldn't play those old-school jukebox songs. it was playing all those techno-remixed songs which didn't really fit the ambience x( haha, but it's alright.. food was good, brilliant. and thank goodness the both of us shared food, if not... cannot finish food again hahaha

i tell you, central mall is so uluated! so hard to find... and when we finally got into the bar, we were half an hour late, and the thing hasn't started. and it didn't help that majority of the people there were lighting up like nobody's business.. and i don't smoke =( and the dj was being really really really irritating. he can't pronounce his words to save his life, like the alochol chivas, he pronounced it as SHEE-vas. *smacks forehead* and he's DJ Paranoia or something, well he would be if I had managed to hurl something at him. and he kept on repeating that the show was going to start in a little while, which was actually quite a long while. sometimes, silence is the best thing. *tsktsk* the hairshow was pretty alright.. haha.. kenny was there, filming away when juleen came out... haha! so cute lah x) then after the show, got out of that place after having a word or two with jenn and juleen.. got a cab almost immediately and got home, showered and watched the apprentice with my baby.. i hate cliffhangers! now i hafta catch it next sunday as well...

note to self:
saturday - visit granny
