Oh where I've been, sold and spun again.

My mother and I are now mocking people who go "You got see this or not?" all the time.
It's our new hobby apparently.

"You got see the taxi ah?"
"You got buy the paper ah?"
"You got eat or not?"

Half the time, the spell-checker in me would just like to proof-read things people send me. Somewhere in May, the daughter of my father's late best friend told me that she wrote the front page tribute to her father in the booklet they gave out during the prayers.

I came home and read it. I felt an urge to take my red Stabilo pen and circling the words that were spelt wrongly, but I waved it off since it's a tribute to her father and I shouldn't be such a pernickety cow.

Even when my brother spells something wrongly, I cringe. I even took the red pen and circled that word he incorrectly spelt. I pointed it out to him and he just stared at me.

Sometimes, when my father mispronounces a certain word, I have a bad habit of correcting him, which is something he absolutely detests.


Remember this lecturer of mine who claims that no one uses the term 'for your perusal' anymore because it's outdated and only used by royalty? Yeah, well, the e-mails she sends us are so full of errors, it drives me crazy.

I feel like drawing circles all over my screen looking at her e-mails! It's highly unprofessional of her to say we did a bad job on her assignments because of grammatical errors when she herself commits it!

Then, there are people hu spell lyk dis wich iz so irritatin.

Eh, please don't chat with me like that. I may start abusing my caps lock button in an attempt to scream at/flame you.


It's okay if you use abbreviations like WTF, LOL, LMAO, ROTFLMAO, OMGWTF, BRB and whatnots. I won't kill you.

Just don't spell lyk dis or lyk dat.

May, using sentences like "I can has cake and cookies too" with me is perfectly fine (because we like doing random crazy things like that together), to a certain degree. There's only so much I can take in a day.


I'm so annoying kan? I better shut up about spelling, sentences and pronunciations.


I went to see the ENT specialist today to find out if the acute peritonsillitis had gone down or gone away (because I missed eating normal food). He told me that the swelling has gone down, but also told me to come immediately if the problem crops up again (otherwise it would get worse and then pus will develop and then he'd have to do surgery to remove my tonsils...*shudders at the thought of surgery*).

For now, I am alright. I just hope the thing doesn't come back to haunt me. I don't like the thoughts of anaesthesia, surgery, and pus development in the throat.


Enough of my random rants. I promised May some pictures.

We needed this. Desperately.


This is what I have to say to you about some work I have yet to complete.


I saved the best for last. Becks looks like he has been Photoshopped into the photo. So unnatural. You're welcome, by the way.

You want to see my dress? Check your inbox OR please come home soon.

We've missed you.


My favourite song from the album has to be Avalanche. I just love it. Going to sleep listening to it and waking up to it for the last two days was just...bliss, simply because I had a smile on my face on those occasions.
