Abrupt end.

lUnchtiMe shoPPinG!!!

talk about 'addictions' !!!
the new CATALOG came in this morning...
and i sOOOoooo want to hit the shops during lunchtime TODAY
=P

sOft addiCtioNs

came across an article on Soft Addictions earlier this evening...
those habits that seem harmless enough......
yet really AREN'T!!!
those casual (or so we think) things we do that actually take up a huge chunk of our time, energy, money... habits which take us away from what we really should be putting 100% concentration and effort into perhaps... work, relationships, studies... more important stuff i guess.
i couldn't stop thinking abt what i had read and came home to google more abt it.
apparently EVERYONE has these Addictions.
haha!
and they really are like, the simplest things we do!
texting...
shopping...
overeating...
emo-ing...
gaming...
oh oh! blackberry-ing. haha! *thinks Jo, Karen and Eleanor
i so wanna get Judith Wright's Soft Addictions: There Must Be More Than This now.
bet that'll be a good read!
i never realised there was such a fine line between a genuinely harmless habit, and a Soft Addiction! example: someone watching telly for educational, or purely entertaining reasons vs. another just channel-surfing the arvo away. who would have thought eh?
gee... if i had to list my top five Soft Addictions, i'll have to say:
texting -- i have a mobile plan that gives me 800 (or is it 900) free texts every month! and i fully utilise these 800 (or so) texts can? haha!
workaholic -- this one i guess i've tried for awhile to deny. but given a series of 'events' that have taken place in my personal life over the last few months, i'm reluctantly coming to terms with the truth. guilty as charged girls... i IS workaholic =(((
shopping!!! -- omg like name me a girl who doesn't shop lo =PPP
bbt -- i can see my sisters lol and nodding their heads off at this already. pfft! yes yes yes I ADMIT IT! i am addicted to bbt. i have it almost everyday. but, it's just like how some people drink coke everyday worrrrr! or coffee!! only i drink bbt mah... munkii you stop laughing ok? i know you also like bbt =P
K-drama marathons -- does this count??? my DVDs aren't ridiculously expensive... but i guess they DO add up to a fair bit over time...? and i guess i AM guilty of spending HOURS and HOURS watching 'em somedays......
hoooooookays!
such a random entry.
THE END.

tHe kiDs

i miss the kids

very, very, VERY much

**Claire @ 4.5 y.o

**Louis @ 2.5 y.o.

pLain frUstratEd

nothing is going my way...

absolutely NOTHING!!!

saMe oLd SamE old...

not sure how many times i've said this before...
but i guess i'll say it again.
i m tired.
mentally.
physically.
emotionally.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
only 10-ish in the morning and i cant wait for the day to end already.

**so many days of time-off to claim yet no blardy time to claim!!! wtf!

cOld wAr

the sister vs. the sister

and i m stuck in between them

...

again.

i hate it when this happens.

i love them both.

i dun wanna have to stand up for one or the other.

but these days... its growing increasingly common where i have to shout myself hoarse trying to get them to stop fighting.

either that, or i have to endure the silent glares they send each other across the dining table, and act as messenger from one to the other when there's a need to.

right now it's the latter.

i feel like saying the exact thing Hermione snapped at Harry...

"i'm not an owl!!!"

why can't they both just grow up already?

*pulls at hair in frustration*

LIANG

i love liang
i really do
he's like the best bro i nvr had
he says the funniest and sweetest things
he 'rolls his eyes' and makes fun of me
he lectures and nags when he sees the need to
he knows how to cheer me up
he helps me stay positive
he never fails to just make me SMILE!

this morning he made fun of me being a Masters' Degree Holder and not being able to spell "stupid" correctly
:ppp
among other random stuff we were yakking abt over msn
ha!
then he goes, "i love u"
awwww... i love u too kid!!!
