POTATOES LOVE-D

Saturday, June 27, 2009

Remember when, on my graduation, I asked you for a hug but you only tapped my shoulder. And then you left me hanging.

Some of us are meant to suffer, you know. Some of us are led to believe that we have a certain destiny and then it just gets snatched away. But we have to stay alive, because we have to see how the story ends.

- My Sassy Girl (2008)

It's good to know that my friends are getting along, JUST FINEEEEEEEEE. ;D

Just remember, things don't happen overnight.
And problems aren't resolved overnight either.

I forgot to mention in my previous post that, while I was at the library on Saturday, I spoiled my brother's phone. Now the LCD's bent and it can't be closed properly. FUCK! & it costs at least 100$ to repair. How now, brown cow?

My brother thinks I should rethink my decision of repairing it cause even though I owe him a phone, the money's not worth spending on the old phone. Actually, I'm not sure what I want to do. I'm just disappointed and angry at myself for being so careless. :\

Phone aside, I'm leaving for Vietnam early tomorrow morning! ;D The flight's actually at 0730h. Suppose to check in at 0530h but I think we'll get breakfast first before checking in. I don't intend to sleep tonight. Anyways, we'll be out of the house by 0500h. So I shall study all day and night long. I might take a nap in the afternoon so that I don't get too tired. Plus, tonight's Crime Night! Starting from 10pm, there's Prison Break, CSI Miami and Without A Trace, which ends at 0100h. An hour after that, CSI again! Hahahaha. I'm going to have fun watching all those tonight. I'm going to bathe by 0330h cause I intend to wash my hair. ;D

Ok so, my Arrival details.
21 June 2009, Sunday.
Beduget Terminal.
TR 329.
17:20h.

Bye Bye. Adios Amigos. Bon Voyage.

Here's what happened.

Early yesterday morning, I sent Amanda off at the airport. When she was checking in, I couldn't hold back my tears and I started weeping. I don't know why but I really started crying soon after. When she saw me crying, Amanda started crying too. So we had this small little crying session. It was awful really. When she hugged me, I didn't want to let her go. But it was time. She had to go off and I'd never see her again. Amanda, I'll miss you!

HAHAHAHAHA! Everything I wrote above is false except for the first and last lines. She'll be back next Saturday. ;D

& Then, off to Woodlands Regional Library to study.

My life sucks, I know. But I'm befriending someone from Canada. So now, it gets interseting!

Emily: Talk to me.
Oliver: I don't know what to say.
Emily: Does it matter? (sniffles)
Oliver: Alright. There's this kid and he's in his backyard, and he's digging a hole. The neighbour lady looks over the fence and says "Whatcha doing over there, little Johnny?"
The kid looks really sad and he says, "Oh, my goldfish died and so I'm having a funeral for him."
And the lady says, "Well, that's an awfully big hole for a goldfish."
And little Johnny says, "Well, that's because he's inside your stupid cat"
(Emily laughs)
Emily: You know that's terrible.

- A Lot Like Love.

Thank you.

From Dictionary.com and Macmillan Dictionary,

implode / ɪmˈpləʊd / verb
to burst inward

estimate / ˈestɪmeɪt / verb
to say what you think an amount or value will be, either by guessing or by using available information to calculate it

assume / əˈsjuːm / verb
to believe that something is true, even though no one has told you or even though you have no proof

My dear friend, Amanda, made a statement that to estimate is more than to assume. Unfortunately, I have to agree with her. HAHAHAHA. How so unfortunate. She made a good point though. I hope she's not imploding now! ;D Anyways, I had a great time on Wednesday, playing Wii and badminton and then dinner at Sulis' workplace. ;D It's a few hours more before I'm meeting Prithika. SURPRISE!
