i dreamt i was in a bus in sydney last night. and the bus met a forked road [?], turning left would lead you to UNSW and right would lead you to the city, and the bus went right. sigh. the dream's like 2-in-1 can? first, i'm not going UK anymore cuz my stepdad thinks it's not wise for us to go on a holiday since my mom told him we went to sydney in september! argh. and secondly, i think i'm gonna stay here and study. as much as i'd like to study overseas, i wouldn't wanna put a strain on my dad's finances. ah well.

SIA's having this fare promotion thing. when i saw tix to bali only cost sgd98, i happily cut and pasted the address to my mom. i actually forgot that the place's been bombed twice. lol. but imagine! things there are gonna be so damn cheap! the surf wear and everything. argh. anyway, adit's coming over in november. tts the closest to being overseas i'll ever be i guess.

oh. told you i went to see a dermatologist? i know my complexion isn't near bad or something, but what's 50 bucks for a lifetime of good complexion man. yeah. 50 bucks for a bottle of cleanser, oral tables and some night cream. he's so good to the extent that i was asking my friend how to get to hougang [since the clinic's there], and my friend was like "why are you going there? going punggol clinic ah?" holy lord. and my mom and friends tell me my skin's like clearer? i dunno. maybe i don't really notice the difference since i see my face everyday. anyway! the dermatologist's 4 no's: no squeezing [i'm still guilty of that! lol], no using of facial products in the market [garnier and shit], no touching of face unless ur face's been washed and no using of facial blotters and stuff. i think he's good. lol. we'll see!

payday was yesterday. never in my nsf life have i got over a thousand bucks in my account! haha. but i'm getting a new old computer soon, so that will change. anyway, went geylang last night with 2 colleagues. super packed as usual. and it rained, so it delayed us quite a bit. and by the time we wanted to go home it was already 11pm. so we walked away from geylang, thinking it'll up our chances of finding a cab. so we ended up walking along joo chiat road and it just screams dirty can? we could so tell who were the pro's and whatnot. scaryyyy!

on off today. gonna go to raffles city with my mom to get her battery watch replaced. will probably go down to smu also to buy the brownies which appeared in yesterday's urban! cheap and good. lol. eid mubarak people... =)

i'm bored. so i blog. haha.

zamri went to db for 5 days for awoling for 11 days. and he was given 2 days off by the senior disciplinary officer! not bad a sentence i'd say. yah right. because of him going into db i had to go thru so much trouble. the mps there didnt want to accept his documents cuz they werent properly endorsed? so yours truly stayed back in camp till like 7.30pm [my ao and chief clerk all called back to camp], went to db, only to find out that again they weren't too happy with it. so they made me type that document there [omg. they know that i'm the admin spec!], print it out and on saturday morning i had to go back to camp to get my ao's signature and finally hand it over to them. i swear i was cursing all the time. argh. swines. anggeks.

work has been fine. encik's been damn nice nowadays lah. always talking cock to us, dunno why also. sometimes he'll just go to the back and talk crap to us. oh. of course, he's the mr know-it-all man. :eyes rolling: once i was telling my sgt the earliest we're breaking fast is at 6.51pm. he was like "no. it's 6.46pm." like okayyy, who's the muslim here ah. haha. but of course, i'd prefer him this way.

i dunno why my unit forces me to clear leave. others can bring 14 days of leave to next year but we're made to bring only 7! so i have to clear like 8.5. of course i planned it anyhow lah. my mom's yet to confirm whether we're going on a holiday anot. hai. i'm clearing like 5 in one shot, so i wont be around for like almost 2 weeks. i'm gonna see how pple who abuse the admin spec suffer. heh. je veux en vacances!
