this collage would have been completed if i had taken a picture with my cousin. but didn't manage. hohum. anyway, since i haven't anything intelligent to say right now, i shall share with ya first, what i have been up to.
y e s t e r d a y ~
woke up about 5 hours after i fell asleep, and immediately tried to wake Shushan up cos we had made plans to eat breakfast together. i was too happy and excited that i didn't even feel tired at all!
we both ate porridge while i had an additional honey biscuit because that's how i roll. went to Popular cos i had to apply for my membership, before starting to walk back to her house.
halfway through it started raining so i had my hood up. but shushan wasn't so prepared and she decided to take a bus back home, leaving me to take a 358 from the same bus stop.
upon reaching the house, rested for a while before showering again and leaving this time to Guilley. my cousin Kak Siti invited me out shopping for my bridesmaid dress, for her wedding next month, so we assembled first at the granny's house.
took a cab to a place called H&M... it was huge! and the clothes were kinda nice. so many long sleeved tops with nice material huhu ^^ but no, our main mission was to look for red dresses. took a few pieces but i really liked the first one which i tried on.
walked to Forever 21 first, to see if there might be any other dresses, but there weren't. went to Typo where Kak Siti bought me two notebooks with quotes on their covers, and then to Smiggle where i bought a notebook for someone.
got ourselves bubble tea before walking back to H&M to get that dress from earlier. walked around too, and i saw a long sleeved striped top which i really wanted! and so, my dear cousin bought it for me :-*
bought KFC before taking a cab back to Guilley, where we all sat and ate and talked in the company of one another plus the kitties.
so Kak Siti found a recording of my parents' engagement, in the form of a really dusty cassette tape. it looked really mysterious and scary at the same time, but it still arouses my curiousity.
how do we convert it to a watchable format though?

was rotting in the house, reading my Chicken Soup listening to the main theme of the game Heavy Rain, with matching weather. til i decided to make a solitary trip to Orchard in the mid-afternoon.
so the train hadn't even left pasir ris and i was already feeling lost. i seriously didn't know how to go to Ion Orchard. cause you know, Orchard is so big, and i wasn't sure if the Orchard mrt station would be the nearest station to Ion or not, you know?
so i asked Black, only to have him yell at me. he really didn't have to raise his voice.
i spent the next few minutes thinking about my mom, and her navigating skills which she'd always been so proud of. and then i thought about me, how i was the exact opposite.
i nearly wanted to cry right there and then ;_; he really didn't have to say all those mean things, he really didn't!
my thoughts got interrupted when the girl to my left leant across to talk to her companion, who was sitting on my right. when they finished talking i asked the former if she would like to change places with me so it'd be more convenient, and then i realised she's someone i know!
it was Fazilah, a very good friend of mine from primary school. she was a really really good friend, actually. i remember her :3 from back in primary one!
there was one time in primary one or two, during mother tongue. i called her some names which i had read in a book, [for absolutely no reason] and then we ended up fighting, and we had to stay back during recess. i remember damn clearly!
chatted about our current states, and future, and a little bit of reminiscence. she's still as chatty as always!
well thank goodness she was there, she was going to orchard as well, so she told me how to switch from the Green to Red lines. she and her sister alighted at Somerset though, while me, at Orchard.
right. so upon walking through the train station gantries,... i got completely lost. the signs were super confusing, i really didn't know whether they meant Up or Straight Ahead!!! i wasted quite some time just looking for Ion Orchard itself.
when i eventually did, the place was freaking huge and not as i remembered, which ate more time while i looked for a directory.
AND THEN I FREAKING MADE IT TO THE BEAUTIFUL {PROLOGUE}..........
spent more eons in there, walking from the books on the shelves to those on display and from the notebooks to the stickers x_x in the end, i bought two books which were given a huge discount, and two notebooks that were on promotion if buying two.
so here, as happy as i was, i got lost once again. i didn't know the way back out, back to the mrt station although i was really careful in remembering the ways which i had taken before.
eventually i found it though, luckily. i came to the conclusion that mrt lines are what confuse me the most when it comes to navigating.
i'm so proud of myself for making it, all the way to Orchard and back alone!
and nope, didnt go hunting for any grad nite dresses or shit like that. anyway, i don't think i am going to grad nite. instead, i am going on a date with my Doodle! :3
the last time we met, i told him i might wanna go out on a date instead on the night of my grad nite, just that i didnt have anyone i could think of to ask. and then he was like, "ask me then!" hopefully i can patch things up with him properly when the day comes.
