ohmygosh my parents just bot this red wood professional erhu at slashed price of 4000 rmb for me. awesome lar! cant wait for it to be back next week. but then damn, i realised i left all my music scores in michigan. i shall steal from sectional ppl then=P
2nd day at work calling up clients and trying to find sponsorship for the golf event to raise funds for the Society of the Physically Disabled. im like, hmm, saying the same stuff over and over again ( not that i ve not done that before), but i just dont really enjoy talking to people over the phone. Im not very adept at talking over the phone, because i definitely feel more comfortable convincing people. by looking at them in the face or straight in the eyes, with body gestures and all that. ARggh but never mind, its for a good cause anyway. I have no idea why my whole life, all my jobs/assignments come in back one big circle to be linked to charity. Maybe its fate lar hurh.
speaking of which, okay never mind. i shall not dwell on that.
Anyway, i watched transformer yesterday on a pretty last minute notice but cool invitation anw. And the whole show was super hilarious i tot, i just kept laughing to myself most of the time. Its SO weird seeing a machine emo emo with humans!!! And its the first time I see killing/gory scenes etc and I dont feel anything at all. My mind somehow perceives metal as a totally inanimate object and i am so unable to piece scraps of metals together into a kind, compassionate machine devoted to saving the human race. But nonetheless those cars in there were nice lar hurh. If i really wanted, I would have gone to the car dealer for nicer ones. But of course the 143 minute show was worth what i took out of my supposed family time, hahaha cos its totally free, thanks to lobang king hurh hahah
And so i was scolded by my sister the other day for hanging out too much. I definitely kinda feel an imbalance between the kind of freedom that i have in SG and over in Michigan. Definitely way different and i think i have to get used to the fact i should try to spend as much time as i can with my grandmother and sister at home. But then you know what, i was pretty upset with my sister on friday when we went out together for lunch at ding tai fung cos she was pretty much sms-ing (i think her bf to be) the whole time and wasnt really focused on talking to me. Not that i needed a 100% attention span from her, but at least respect me as a living entity sitting across her from the table and trying to catch up on the 13 months that we havent seen each other at all.
And the irony of it all, which i suspect was the result of her being grounded when she first came back from australia, is she started scolding me on a brilliant sunday morning the first thing she saw me in the morning. I can swear i was trying my very best not to blow my top, and i didn't, because i havent lost my temper in really quite a while and I tried to talk to her in a very cultured way (i guess inculcated by the angmohs). Hey hey isnt this what they call in psychology displacement/ projection?
okay i feel so bad im kinda bitching about my sister on my blog but i need to let it off as i feel hard done at.
