woke up late today.
ah, i'm such an arse.

ended up meeting khoo and company at her place, and we steamboated for quite a long time.
but i was kinda surprised that only abi, amanda, and sarah went.
told mum there was gonna be like eight people.
the food was pretty good i guess. we had beef sukiyaki, and even fresh sliced salmon.
good stuff(:

oh yeah. and i think i ate about maybe 7 or 8 quail eggs. haha.
cholestrol!

it was weird watching them do the preparations.
i'm totally not used to it. but funny thing is, sarah uses scissors to chop off the ends of the beansprout (tao ge), and only abigail can crack an egg properly.
i managed to crack an egg with one hand:D :D :D
sense of domestic accomplishment, yes.
also, only abigail dared (or knows how) to uncork the sparkling juice, and daphne can't pour stuff into wine glasses. haha.

so therefore,
best housekeeper award goes to abigail(:

they thrashed the tv for a good half an hour cause it couldn't work.
and so we ended up watching The Heartbreak Kid in daphne's room.
it's.. Rated. but it was funny i guess. but the guy is seriously such a loser!
played uno. everyone tried to sabo daphne.
and sorry amanda for whacking you repeatedly on your knee! on the wound which you got from that nasty game of netball i don't wish to recall. sorry!

and i felt kinda bad cause daphne was supposed to meet alfred but it was a lousy arrangement,
so while we were there alfred was calling and waiting at god-knows-where for god-knows-how-long.
he should've just gone home and stopped hanging around.
we hardly get to spend "friend" time, come on.
ahya, i just don't like him luh.

but i felt bad cause daphne felt bad and cause alfred seemed pretty pissed. and i sorta can understand how they felt.
if it was me a few months back, i would've just ran out of the house.
see, this is what guys do best. waste our lives and shirk responsibility.
remind me to only see nice guys. like really nice, not typical guy guys.
which is impossible.

so tomorrow i'm dating shaun out for Step Up 2(:
although he's desperately trying to find people to come cause he apparently thinks i'm the dullest creature to walk this planet and the most annoying bore of his life.
haha. but it's a sibling thing so don't bother trying to get out of it.
he's the good reason why i overslept. we were playing this game till like one.
terrible.

mum seems alot happier when dad's around. so while he isn't,
i have to be the best daughter.
his increasing business trips must be affecting both of them. and he comes home for like two days before flying off again.
dad seemed particularly happy to see both me and ines at the airport last night though(:
he's born a hardworker. i wonder where the genes went.
hmm.

if i made it that awkward that you can't even talk to me,
i'm sorry.
