My uncle came over for dinner tonight:)haha he came over specially to give my mom a HUGE torchlight that apparantly has e light power equivalent to a million candles. (it said that on the box but I seriously doubt it)Haha he said it was for emergency use like blackouts. It was so big it doesn't even run on batteries,but is rechargeable!Poor buster was a little freaked by it;he ran away when my uncle flashed the huge shiny light at him a few times:)My mom was very happy, with both the flashlight and that my uncle had scared buster. (She says she HATES buster)
Haha then we went on to talk about me studying chem engineering at nus..We got around to the subject of DNA and inheritance..haha I dunno why my mom always has the funniest concepts..for some reason she insists that bloodtypes of the children always come from the father..then when I asked her what I inherited from her she said immediately, "My nice complexion, my soft hair, my beautiful nose..." she would have went on forever if I hadn't interrupted her..my mom seriously doesn't act her age.
Haha but its good that she's still retained her childish side!I think being childish relieves her of the stress she has to face each day at the stockmarket.:)There are times when I think she's 5 instead of 50.Like when she's chasing buster around the dining room table,making funny faces at him or asking me to piggyback her about the room) Hope I'll still be childish when I'm 50 plus.

woah last night was pretty exciting!:)as most of you know, half of singapore was caught in a blackout late last night:)I was reading in my room when everything suddenly went off..haha I heard my older sister yell from the toilet next door, "I need toilet paper!!!" My mom went overboard lighting up her incredible collection of candles (me,my mom and my sisters are all candle fanatics ;we love buying scented and pretty looking candles ) while my dad went out into the street to kaypo with neighbours and see what was happening..meanwhile my poor little dog buster was wandering around in the dark wondering what the heck was happening:)my mom was freaking out about her fish dying cos the pond filter wasn't working while I kept my younger sister company as she used the toilet by candlelight:)
the lights came back on after about 15 minutes..haha I was actually kind of disappointed cos all the candles looked so pretty!:)me and my sister sat there enjoying the nice candles even after the lights came back on..
haha all in all it was qt fun considering it was a serious blackout:)

hey people!I finally got to starting a blog cos I realized I've been out of touch with so many of you guys for a while now :p heh creating a blog was really a lot simpler than I thought it would be :)sigh but forgive me in advance if I don't update regularly..I'm currently busy with tuition and driving!yup I've still kept most of my tuition jobs even tho school's starting in a month's time ( ga so fast!!:P ) guess I feel bad dropping my tuition students..and there's still a chance that I'll be going to australia to study medicine at the end of the year..of course that's only if uni of western australia accepts me..*crosses fingers*I only just received my ISAT (australian test scores) yest..I was rated in the 70th percentile for critical thinking and 95th percentile for quantitative thinking..hope its gd enough for the uni pple..
anyway, i've been feeling pretty nostalgic this week..I was qt sad after getting off the phone with yulinda on sunday..I called her just before she left..It got me to thinking about all my relationships with my friends and how I really hope to stay in contact with all of you!!:)haha yup and that led to the birth of this blog:)I miss ya yulinda and wish you all the best!!:)
