alright... its been a bloody long time since i posted and my blog probably gathered up a hell lotsa dust... so here i am to refresh it... now recently for the june holidays, my relatives haf come from the united states of america to stay at my place. so as a nice cousin and nephew, i gave up my room and bunked in wif my sisters, crowding up their already crowded room. well i'm not complaining or anything, bunking in has its advantages. now my aunt and her 2 kids came to stay at our place... aunty sally, a.k.a yee yee sally (yee as in chinese for aunty), brandon and samantha. brandon is 8 and very hyper active, always teasing me and calling me alexa... don't ask why caus i don't know... they have never met each other... anyway, my june holidays have been packed with revision(most of the time), remedial(most of the time), eating (3 times a day), sleeping(at least 4 hrs a day) and playing(hardly...sadly)... remedial has been for A maths so far.. at least until the last week where everything comes in... science, english, maths, more science... now the term june HOLIDAYS is not what it supposed to be... holidays = slacking, relaxing, doing what u want... did i mention slacking? tts what holidays are like during the primary school and below age groups... when u grow up, the term 'holiday' comes once in a blue moon =P tts when a new term comes in: 'taking leave'. well anyway, away from stress and back to me =))) the june study break cum revision month(use of the term 'holiday' is prohibited) does haf its good points... how many of us will actually get our lazy asses to study during the 'break'... not me tts for sure... i mean, theres a saying: 'theres a time to haf fun and theres a time to be serious'... well the serious part should not go in to the fun parts... i read from sumwhere... a man said: 'u know u need time to relax, when u cannot find time to.' i totally agree =))) but tt doesn't mean tt u can't relax when u got time to... at least i hope so... if not the world will be filled with workaholics onli resting when there isn't time to -.- we... time flies by faster than i thought it would... its coming towards the end or the scond week and the study break cum revision month is coming to an end... hope u guys get enough time for fun tho caus we're abt to start the serious part again in, say abt 864000 seconds... not counting whats left tonight... well... OMG LOOK!!! YOU LOST ANOTHER FEW SECONDS OF FUN!!! well time flies... cya pple... thx for reading =P

MY FIRST NC 16 SHOW!!!!! to other pple tt watched coutless nc 16 shows might find this of little interest but to sumone like me... its a BIG deal =P after buying the tickets, had roughly about an hour and a half or so before it started... walked arnd a while and saw this nice bag with the words 'LOUSY VUITTON' on it...

GOLD WITH HONOURS!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
recently... on the chinese new year celebration, me and madu went to sakae sushi to eat lunch during the buffet, tt meant lots of sushi on the small table, the requirements of lots of water, unagi!(a little bad news abt it later on) and of course the availability of a plastic bag... these are a neccessity when going for a buffet at sakae sushi... water is deffinately a neccessity as u gotta wash down all the sushi u stuff into ur mouth... water is a must, besides.... water is healthy... contains all sorts of minerals and ofcourse fluorine... whitens ur teeth =))) our table was spammed with sushi plates of all colours exept red... those cost much more... and are not counted in the buffet... now, on to the unagi. the unagi is the thing i would want most at any jap food restaurant... unagi is a must anywhere... UNAGI IS A MUST!!! RUNNIGN OUT OF UNAGI IS A HUMILIATION TO THE JAP FOOD INDUSTRY!! BY NOT HAVING STOCK OF UNAGI IS JUST LIKE NOT HAVING THE MATERIALS FOR A TEST!! UNAGI IS IMPORTANT!!! IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!! ok, so basicly... they did not haf unagi at the sakae we went to... i will not say where to protect that branch's identity... *cough* marina square *cough*... but seriously, unagi is a basic thing in jap food industries... unagi is a must... A MUST!!!! ok then theres the plastic bag... to throw away the food u dun want >.< example the raw, slimy, BLUE prawn sushi... there was also a short performance at sakae sushi done by me... i was gliding on the chair =))) left to right, right to left, wanna see the video come find me on wednesday, when i get ,my phone back from captivity... after tt went for a movie before going off, the same day i went to see MRS NG!!! PRIMARY 6 TEACHER!!!
