mamma mia here i ramble again!

this is one huge reason why daphne khoo will probably win singapore idol.

her uncle is eric khoo the famous director (who loves to cast skinny-reed-thin lum may yee. i secretly think he has a huge thing for her)

ok, back to point, the khoo family owns that goodwood park hotel off scotts road. and the employees have been told to vote for daphne and whatever they had spent on will be reimburse by the goodwood park hotel boss.

how like that? no wonder she has never been bottom three before. its all the damn judges fault! she shouldnt even be in top 30 in the first damn place. stooopid sia.

new furniture came. very nice. walnut colour. had a family squabble also. basically, my brothers were trying to get rid of me cuz they want their own rooms back and i think they were kinda terrified another man might be living with them occassionally.

so i think its for the best that i move out.

the question is, i have not decided WHERE yet.

the fiance suggested me living with his grandmother to keep her accompany. i fear that the grandmother is used to living on her own for and probably would be uncomfortable. besides, its too imposing and there's so much red-tape. i am pretty sure, because its an ancestral home, we need to seek permission from many people.

probably next year, i'll be buying off that 3-rooms flat from my auntie, who will be re-marrying and going off to live at her husband's place. my chinese grandmother refuses to follow her cuz the husband has a mother as well and its gonna be so awkward. so if i buy off that apartment from her, my chinese grandmother comes along with the place.

whatever it is, i have until january next year to figure out where and how.

times like this i wish i dont have that stupid bond to pay off and could just run away to kl after kicking my brothers in their asses.

so much drama.

i misplaced my pencil case which has my thumb drive in it along with hundreds of documents/files which i desperately need for work.

i need gingko nuts.

these past few nights my sleep has not been completely restful. i keep waking up a couple of times, tossing and turning. in the morning, it gives me a terrible headache.

fiance said i think/worry too much.

i think its true. thats why i drew up one huge circle and a smaller one inside the huge circle.

inside the small circle, i write things that i can worry about or have control over. which are: my choice, my responses, myself and my attitude. this circle is aptly named circle of control.

the bigger circle is name circle of NO control. in it are listed: bad weather during wedding, insufficient food/drinks/door gifts, parents, brothers, cousins, bad make-up, bad hair, other people, period during honeymoon, etc..

so anything which falls into the bigger circle of no control, i will not bother thinking much less worry about it.

i got this off from the book 7 habits of highly effective people.

nina will be coming down to interview mobb deep and jin the mc for her radio show. might be meeting her later. the fiance is coming down as well. but until now, i have no idea what time is he leaving kl. quite pissing me off cuz he was supposed to come back by yesterday.

on saturday met up with abg sani, marliah, helmi and abg yem. we buka-ed at back lane doing tulang and teh. (tulang should only be devoured in the privacy of your own home. so i didnt have any even though it looks yummy) after that we couldnt think of a thing to do. geylang on a saturday is definitely out. it would be packed.

'someone' suggested karaoke. but nobody would say yes 'fearing' having to bear the group's sins collectively. but there were so much pussy-footing going around!even the membership card magically appeared on the table and everyone was going "siapa nak call, call."

i couldnt take it. so i called. after that, everyone lighted up and were grinning! silly gooses!

anyhow.. had our normal fix of malay old skool songs and tonnes of boyband songs! mr macho helmi was my duet partner for most of the songs!!

i am quite sleepy. having invigilation later again in the afternoon. good news is, i get to skive off a potentially long and mentally draining meeting. hehe.

went to watch mammamia with the colleagues last tues. before that we had sushi and had the most wonderful seats by the window, overlooking the bay and the concrete jungle. so nice. the company was great. many laughs and good talking.

mammamia was entertaining even though the storyline was quite cheesy. at the ending, they had the cast peforming the theme song plus a few more other ABBA songs and they encouraged the audience to get up and dance along. but no one in my group wanted to dance. shy people. :p ABBA songs were always great! so happy and so feet-tapping kinda music.

ok, rambled on too far. off to sleep for abit then wake up for invigilation.
