Title : April fool!
Time : 2:06 pm
Earworm: Confessions ~~ Usherbefore i go into the main topic. i actually got some kind of answer to my question about life science last post. there was this talk on life science during contact time on wed, the lecturer was sorta.. how should i put it... too systematic? she reminded me of a robot or something, spewing out FACTS about FUN... that seems a paradox already. anyways, the main gist of life science is about research, and im not sure whether i would be able to dedicate my whole life confined to a lab, and 'planning my life around my experiments' as quoted from the lecturer. plus u have to be innovative and original to come up with project proposals and gain the adequate funding. but it's like i have this aspiration to find a cure for some disease. so maybe it's for me but i need more info about this field before i totally decide upon it. Life science, i learnt, also can branch into academic, industrial research, forensic science, law, insurance and journalism, in the sense that u need some background of biology to be able to report new developments in the scientific world and not mess up all the terminologies. maybe thats another thing i could consider but i havent been delving too much into writing these days, well except for my blog lah.that aside, mar and i have been scheming how to fool brit for some time... we couldnt come up with anything feasible til the day before April Fools' day. the original plan was like this i tell ck to hide brit's shoes while mar tells brit to hide ck's shoes! but brit had to spoil it by saying he was lazy to go school the next day coz he had an MC. but mel came up with the guys hiding each others shoes in a cycle, all those planning and stuff made me miss the 1st episode of OC! but unfortunately the plan didn't work coz they either fell asleep or forgot --d'oh! but coincidentally the 4 guys who were the victims of our scheme all woke up late and arrived at school in a cab! me and yh tried to tease fung about gorilla keeping a picture of her in his wallet but she didnt buy it, instead tricked me and yh by saying EEEEE!! and pointing at the floor which had nothing obviously. my class teased the chem tutor bout a hole in her shirt. my classmate mentioned that april 1 seem to have lost its fun coz we're older, which is kinda sad actually but i still had fun, haha im young at heart!at night after guitar prac supposed to go orchard and meet brit and ck for dinner, jol joining us for the movie The Wedding Date later. but i was late and asked them where to meet, when Brit said Lido, i was a bit suspicious coz normally we watch at Cineleisure, and my paranoia increased when i called ck to confirm the meeting place, which was Paragon. was thinking whats there to eat at the super high class shopping mall?? ck insisted yeah and gave me the wrong directions! unintentionally though and i stopped at a bus stop later than the correct one so walked all over and then brit called to tell me we're meeting at Scotts. ahhh! my sense of direction is hopeless and i was scared i'd get lost in the underpass so i just jaywalked or rather jay-ran across the road to tangs plaza. by the time we met up there was no time to eat and by the time jol came the movie started ten mins. to top it all, the movie was a flop. the laughs were few and far between altho i liked the male escort character with all his philosophies, dubbed a Yoda in the movie. rating: 1.5/5Later at night, brit hid in cl's closet and jumped out at him, resulting in a high pitched scream lol.. ck videoed it but cl deleted it later...too badthe next day which was yesterday, brit asked whether wanna go watch movie, between house of fury or miss congeniality 2. and i was like again? he explained it's coz he wanna go away from the hostel as far as possible since the avril lavigne concert was at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, within walking distance, and yet he had nobody to go to the concert with, so being depressed, he needs to spend money, some retail therapy huh. initially lh wanna watch miss congeniality 2 also which i was totally shocked about coz he seldom goes out and he told me that he watched epics, sci-fi, those kinda serious stuff. so i thought, this would be interesting but somehow that didnt work out and he fell asleep so the number dwindled to me, mel and brit going to watch house of fury, that is, if we can get the tickets. At lido, surprised to find a short queue but thats coz HOF was sold out, so was ms. congeniality. movie plans cancelled, decided to spend the money on a nice dinner at Marche instead. Outside Marche was Beads etc where mel got totally taken with a crystal necklace and i told her just go ahead and pamper yourself and she was so happy when she bought it. they have some DIY beads too which comes quite cheap and i hope to go there one day and make my own too!for dinner, mel had chicken breast, wild mushroom soup and fruit soda while brit had lamb shank and apple juice, i ordered tempura soft shell crab, apple crumble with passion fruit and mango ice cream (too sweet) and washed it down with pineapple lemonade. i think i overstuffed myself, felt quite bloated later. =/Went to Gramophone at Paragon, which is a great find coz they're having a clearance sale and i got the Greenday International Superhits cd at $11.95! there were coldplay at $14, norah jones $15 and most of them under $19! i debated over ben jelen's cd which was priced at $9.95 but decided against it coz i only knew one song. but so tempted by goo goo dolls' dizzy up the girl which was $19.95! should ask my sister whether she wants it or not too. After that, with little time left til the shops at orchard close, we went to Takashimaya to buy gorilla's bday present, which was a plush monkey pillow! when we brought it back to show the other girls, everyone was cooing over how cuuuutte it was and petting it hahaha.. it'll be a second hand toy by the time it reaches him!
