Adult Phase

You know...

I used to wish that Peter Pan would pick me instead of Wendy to bring to that Neverland. That one place that adults are not allowed and children never have to grow up. A place where I could play child games forever, laugh or cry as much as I want and no one will think I'm crazy.

But...

On the contrary, some kids can't wait to grow up and become adults. When they're 12, they act like they're 21, and by the time they are 21, they act like they are in their late twenties (yes, please accept the fact that irregardless how much kids wanna be old, they won't wanna be older than 29). But act is totally different from being one.

Now...

I'm mid-twenties. Life hasn't exactly been smooth sailing. But I'm healthy, have a roof over my head, can wear nice clothes, I'm employed, it'll be cruel to complain. Its just that responsibilities come with adulthood. Not that attractive a package for me, especially the ones that involves money and better living conditions.

I guess...

There is always two sides to a coin. If I never grew up, I would never know the importance of family, sibling relationship, love, friendship, which are exactly the things which keeps me happy. Although tired of growing up, I'm sure there is more to gain than lose in the process.

Note: For now, I'm looking forward to growing up with YOU. Good luck! *wink*

I.M.S.H.O.C.K.E.D.

The bill finally came for last month's consumption of water, electricity and garbage disposal.

*EYES OPEN BIG BIG* *JAW DROP TO THE GROUND*

$316.53

Electricity itself was $220.52!

Never in the 3 years that I've been living in Singapore have I received such an amount of bill for electricity. Even when there were three of us (Me, Erin and Mandy) living together. This amount has to be the most ridiculous one I've seen to date.

Thanks to my new housemate.

I knew nothing good was going to come out from his purchase of a portable dryer. Plus his love of washing clothes even if it was like 3 pieces he put in the machine.

*TRIES TO KEEP EYES FROM POPPING OUT AND JAW INTACT*

I am shocked!

A Story About Siti...

Sis was sitting in the kitchen at the counter.

Her friend Wei Yen, also known as Chicken Little, also known as Siti, was washing dishes at the sink overlooking our neighbour's kitchen.

Sis: Siti, you sudah pandai ah. Boleh cuci pinggan tak ada pecah. Tapi you lambat la. Cepatlah.

Wei Yen: *No response*

Sis: Siti cepatlah Siti! Banyak lagi kerja nak buat tau.

Wei Yen: Diamlah!

Mom: Sshh! Not so loud la! The neighbour's maid is just opposite k!

Apparently, the neighbour's maid's name IS Siti.

*laughs until dies*

Early To Bed, Early To Rise

I didn't exactly sleep early. But I managed to sleep about 3 and a half hours?

Haven't had such rested sleep for a long long while...

And it had to pour heavily when I woke up. Make it even more difficult to get out of bed. Its a surprise I did and I still have some time to spare before going off for work today.

I'm super bright and chirpy today. I am sure YOU are glad I'm slowly coming out of the depressing condition. Can't wait for the weekend to be here. Its gonna be a new month soon.

I'll write something when I get back...

Ta~

The Problem About Being Happy...

is that when you are really unhappy or just merely in a lousy mood to talk, people just assume you to be the most ungrateful human on earth. They just can't stand the sight of your non-smiling-face. Everytime you open your mouth to try and excuse your lousy mood, they just scrutinise you from top to bottom.

I think that is totally unfair.

I don't judge you when you have mood swings. I don't tell you off for having a sour face. I don't bother you when I know you are detached from the world. I just leave you alone.

I want to be treated the same.

Its just one of those days...you know?
Those...let me be days...
Those...leave me alone days...
Those...I miss home days...
Those...I wanna cry days...
Those...I wanna be invincible days...
Those...let me be trouble free days...
Those...pick me up and give me a hug days...

There. Exactly seven of those days, which makes a week. I'm not even at a week yet. Only two days and you are frowning upon me. Heck. When you don't feel like talking or smiling, I even make up excuses for your behalf okay. Like maybe you are having love problems, maybe your dog is sick, maybe you are having your PMS, maybe...just maybe.

All I want now is just for you to leave me alone. All I wanna do now is to go and look for YOU instead. You makes me sulk, but only YOU can make me feel better.

U don't understand?

It's okay. Cause its my secret between me, you and YOU. So, U should go sleep now...

Nosy Weird People

I am sitting here in the living room with my laptop. I am overlooking a petrol station under construction, a very quiet road and block 193 HDB flat out of the window on my right. On my left is a living room with unpacked baggage belonging to me, Mandy and Bernard.

I was happily enjoying the afternoon breeze and checking my e-mails like ten minutes ago. Then some nosy weird people walked along our corridor and started looking in at our apartment. I know how you sometimes look into people's place and you can't help it, because it's just something you can't control when you are not thinking. We use to get that all the time in Pasir Ris, cause our unit was the first one after the lift. Every single neighbour would have to pass our corridor before they reached home. Super annoying. But this is Punggol. And our unit is like at the end of the lot.

I'd understand if our neighbour (who is directly opposite of our unit) would do exactly that. But these bunch of nosy weird people were probably not even living in this block. They totally, intentionally looked into our apartment. One of the guys even tried to asked me questions. He looked in, which obviously had my attention already, and he went, "Is this a 4 room unit?"

What the ??

I tell you, I'm beginning to hate these people a whole lot. Super rude. And not to mention nosy. And no interpersonal skills whatsoever. They make me dislike them and start behaving like them just to match their super annoying behaviour. No wonder people keep saying I'm beginning to blend in.

I. Don't. Want. To. Be. One. Of. Them.

I better stop being irritated so easily. I think I need to start meditating. *breath in* breath out*
