Oh yah, I wanna get shoes/ sneakers in time for my hiphop/kickboxing sessions!

BLEaHHH.

I wanna....

Durng exams, I'll have this "I wanna do this, this, this, and this" thingie. It hits me everytime. So for this sem, which is prolly my final sem...

I wanna:

  1. Go back to driving school
  2. Go shop for interview clothes
  3. Go sign up for kickboxing or hiphop with LS
  4. Go on a trip somewhere to do something meaningful. (Mission trip?? Teach English in China? Maybe return to the Hainan Islands with Grandma)
  5. Meet my dearies in ministry and get the ministry fuelled by the students.
  6. Seriously think about what I wanna do. Graduate? Honours? What's work all about? Should I be getting outta my little-girl-the-world-is-too-big-and-scary-mode and snap into the world of make-up and professionalism? I have tons to say about make-up the other day. And so I'll say it now.

On Make-up...

Nowadays, when my friends go shopping, they'll make a detour to the Make-up section while I'll be straying somewhere off to the facial wash and hair waxes... and by the time I'm done with my touring, my friends will still be checking out the different eye shadows and blushers and foundations and bases and nail polishes and bla bla bla... and it's a foreign world to me.

Nah, I've nothing against make-up. Just that I don't own it and I don't use it. Maybe coz I don't know how. Make-up can make you or break you, depending on your skill, which according to many, comes with practice. Secondly, I get this feeling that it'z gonna clog your pores and ruin your skin. I don't use make-up, but I'm still vain enough to cleanse, tone and moisturize once in a while k.

And I guess the greatest reason is that make-up sounds like the start of a phase that that is no longer simple and sincere... and it's part of a world that puts so much more emphasis on first impressions and appearances. I don't like that. I don't like to look one way, and actually be another. I can't keep up with appearances. I probably can hold a 15-minute presentation and actually look professional but I can't hide that somewhat kiddish bubbly-ness that will spoil my whole professional image right? I can't walk around in professional heels and trip, can I? (Yes, I tend to trip.) I can't look professional and be ignorant at the same time right? Something about donning a power suit and looking professional scares me. Something screams at me that it's not me at all.

But that's not completely true. I can grow up if I ditch my habitual looking-back, move forward, take full responsibility for my thoughts and actions, find courage to face the unknown and take the process of growing out in my stride. And when I'm close to that, I'll go join my friends at the make-up and contact lenses section.

They complete each other

My dad and mum are just about the 2 cutest parents in the world. Okie, I'm biased but they're my parents. In Ice-age 2 terms, " [they] complete each other". Mum packs my dad's stuff before he flies off. Mum calls the cab to pick dad up. Mum's dad's secretary for all the small stuff. Dad's cool. And knows much more about travelling and business talk and international culture. And he playfully laughs at mum sometimes for her ignorance. But, dad burns the fish and mum has to rescue it. Dad's a panic-mess without mum when he's gonna fly. And mum's a ganjiong spider when dad's not around to fetch her around and work out the groceries... and handle 3 girls who never seem to grow up... oh well, I just love them.

In more modern terms. Mum and dad are like 豆浆油条 (yah, in Lin JunJie's singing terms)

我知道你和我就像是豆浆油条
要一起吃下去味道才会是最好
你需要我的傻笑
我需要你的拥抱
爱情就需要这样它才不会单调

我知道有时候也需要吵吵闹闹
但始终也知道只有你对我最好
豆浆离不开油条
让我爱你爱到老
爱情就需要这样它才幸福美好

Love ya Dad n Mum.
