Popcorn

I have been avoiding this place only because I've been contemplating a permanent blog shutdown. More like shut this space and open up yet another new one. But then I never reached a final decision. I guess the fact that I'm back typing out an entry here means...NOPE, I'm not closing shop as yet.

I survived yesterday's water supply cut. Thanks to the pipe works that has been going in in my housing area for quite some times now. So I had no supply of water from 9am - 5pm. At first it was quite a-ok, but come mid day, things got a little bit uncomfortable. Well my mum did fill up several buckets and bottles with water for our use but it was really too...ermmm, unhygienic? I don't know...maybe my imagination was running too wild. Whatever, it was just luck that my cousin called up telling us to join him and some other of his family members for a little bit of feasting at a Thai restaurant near the interchange. So at least I get to divert my attention elsewhere and not bother much about not having water. Hah!

It turned out that "a little bit of feasting" was quite and understatement. There were only six of us but the amount of food ordered was fit for twice the amount of people. But it was all good anyway coz it has been quite a long while since I last had a huge feasting session with the relatives. Pretty much reminded me of 'those days'. Lets not elaborate ayy. So I stuffed my face with fried wonton, tomyum soup, sweet and sour grouper, fried rice, mango salad, hotplate dried chilli beef, squids, oatmeal prawns, pineapple rice, etc, etc. And I woke up from my sleep at about 4am coz I had a bad case of stomachache. Thanks to the "motley crew" of food. Lol.

At this point in time, I've yet to get myself a job. Damn. I realize that jobs does not magically come to you. But whatever, I don't think that I wanna find one. Not till January perhaps. Or never never at all. Besides, my extortion strategy seems to be working quite well. Though its not quite a walk in the park either. I mean there gotta be some sorta repercussion, one way or another. Haa.

I figured out how to tame my eating habits. It is working to a very small extent coz I tend to wreck my momentary resolution in...well, just a moment. Yeah. Haha! It does not help that I've a newfound addiction towards this cheapskate popcorn which can usually be found at void deck provision shops. I can't help it, I'm HOOKED! And now, I wanna look for those tubs of caramel popcorn which I had bought for quite a few times during this time of the year, back then. I saw them caramel popcorns, but it's no longer in those small tubs. Now it's sold in this huge-ass bottle and cost a little above eleven bucks. I can't possibly get them...I'd end up devouring the whole huge bottle and feeling guilty about it for the rest of my life. Maybe I should stake out other supermarkets to see if they have them in the small tubs.

Turning a bookworm post A-levels? I tried but I gave up eventually. Somehow, it's a little more fun watching things on screen than reading them up. Maybe I've been deprived of the television for a very long time. So, the buildup must have worked its way like a raging wildfire. So I have been going on an endless video-watching spree. But I will try to pick up my reading habits once again. Soon ok. Or maybe I'll make it my new year's resolution.

And so...it's raining now. Darn. Can you believe that I've NOT stepped on ROCK NUMBER ONE even when the exam's so over? Damn damn damn. I had been looking forward to it but the weather has been super unpredictable. Even my jogging sessions has been brought to a halt. Yet again. Yet again. Yet again.

Oh I finally completed watching all three seasons of Veronica Mars. Unfortunately the ending was somewhat left hanging in mid air. Or maybe that's how it's supposed to be. And I felt that as VM gets on to college, the storyline edges towards the like of CSI and Criminal Minds. It was getting so much more interesting but her character lacked conviction. It would be more fun if her character was likened to Gaia Moore from the book series, Fearless. And I do wonder if the producers of VM actually got the idea of the storyline from Fearless. There are a whole bunch of similarities ayyy. As for Gossip Girl, episode 9 and 10 must have been the sappiest ones among all the others but it was really sweet somehow.

Finally, I actually got about to logging into my Facebook account. It was a HUGE MESS. I don't understand all those additional applications and on how it enhances connection as a whole. Like pillow fights and the cars thingy whatever plus the super poke and blah blah blah. I logged in and I saw a whole long list of requests for those stuffz. It was waaaayyyyy too cluttered. I shall stay safe with Friendster and try to figure out Facebook soon.
