Yesterday I met my stickydate, Trili. How we started calling each other stickydate was really interesting. It was Christmas @ Berrima’s last year and I made Sticky Date Pudding. She liked it. And hence the sweet nickname!
In some freaky ways, we are really similar, like how we would be thinking of something at the same [...]

Yesterday’s English class was at Gloria Jeans @ Chaddy instead of Hargrave Andrews.
I headed off to Chaddy with Angela and Joseph for our English lesson with a cuppa. They treated me coffee…so nice of them! It’s the first time that we had class outside Hargrave Andrews which is something really refreshing. We just [...]

I think the most interesting and random event of yesterday night is watching Top Gear at Grill’d in mute while reading subtitles off the screen. It was the part where the hosts were in Vietnam and their challenge was to travel from south vietnam to the north…in motorcycles. It’s hilarious and I think I might [...]
674) Transform me
Posted by: carmenL on: June 26, 2009
Yesterday night, I joined Su Ann and the rest for Transformers:Revenge of the Fallen at VMax @ Knox. It was my first time at VMax and Jonathan said that I’ve had a deprived childhood =.= Well, the screen is doubled in size but I think I’m kinda fine with the normal sized ones if I [...]

10.05 am
733 bus was early for once. I caught the 10.05 am bus but I didn’t take it. Why? Because I didn’t have a bus ticket and the driver didn’t have change for a 20 dollar note. Quickly texted Ps Lisa and prayed.
10.10am
Walked back into house to find coins/loose change. Attempt: Unsuccessful.
10.20am
I walked to uni [...]

How happy is the blameless vestal’s lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray’r accepted, and each wish resign’d;
excerpt from ‘Eloisa to Abelard‘
by Alexander Pope
I watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind yesterday night and I find that movie really weird. Weird because I was about to close the media [...]

Is to bake, bake and bake and to bless people with my little creations! I wish I have all the money in the world to do just that! I would be the happiest girl on earth!
My dream is to have a large white kitchen with all the utensils in place.
And of course, my very own [...]

…on weddings.
I watched The Wedding Planner and 27 Dresses.
Then I hear Peggen and Hau Wei talk about their wedding plans.
Then I watch the wedding video that Melissa sent me and the picture video that Jonathan Ong posted up.
Is it just me or is there a wedding vibe (not for me, tho) coming along?
I’m guessing…there would [...]
669) Split second mistake
Posted by: carmenL on: June 23, 2009
Sometimes, all you need is a split second before you realize that you’ve made a mistake.
For example, thinking that a box is light enough for you to carry so you bend over to pick it up instead of squatting down and leveraging yourself up slowly. That is all you need before you back tells you [...]

My dad is the reason who I am today.
He is the reason why I drive carefully.
He is the reason why I make sure I take my keys out everytime.
He is the reason why I am a good cook.
He is the reason why I am an engineer.
He is the reason why I was never pressured [...]
