THAT'S ME (Tadaa!!)


1) I've a HUMONGOUS appetite, although I seldom allow myself to indulge it.
(Try eating 3 slices of pizza, 5 spicy chicken drumlets, 1 slice of cake, and a cup of Pepsi for lunch. How about eating 2 rice dumplings for supper? Geez...)

*********

2) The biggest living nightmare I've been through is sharing a freaking lift (Not those big lifts in new HDB flats, but those miserable ones that are mournfully squeezy and slow) with an even freakier adult lizard. =(

*********

3) I've a pathetic sense of direction.

*********

4) Crispy Coffee Buns.

5) Flag-day volunteers (No idea which organization they were representing) approached me on one fine day in Orchard Road some years back. Noticing them walking towards me from afar and having no desire to donate (I was that broke then), I put on a fake accent and asked, "Do you have any idea which is the direction to The Heeren?" before they could open they mouth. After getting the answer I wanted, I replied "Thank you" and sashayed off.
(This is what I call killing two birds with one stone. Man, I feel so evil. Haha.)

*********

6) I once earned a report book with Band 3 for all subjects in Primary 3.

7) Crispy Coffee Buns.

*********

8) I cheated in exams, lied, and stole blatantly in primary school days.
(Not anymore, ok? Hehe.)

*********

9) I've a fear for height and lightning
(Seriously, I'm afraid of getting struck by lightning. Don't laugh.)

*********

10) A careful consumer I am. Checking the expiry date of my purchases is the norm.

*********

11) I'm a health freak, albeit one who seldom exercises.
(Do you believe I used to blot my roti prata with tissues so as to remove the oil? How about washing my home-cooked veggies with water before eating? Haha.)

*********

12) The naive me (I was 16) walked into Jean Yip Saloon once to get my hair rebonded, thinking that it was not going to cost much (I had expected only S$200.00 at most). My coversation with my hairdresser went like this:
"How much do you think it'll cost to rebond my hair?" "Rebonding will take quite some time, you know? At least 2 hours. Do you have any other commitments later?" (I thought she did not hear my question)
"Nope, I don't. I'm wonderi... ... ..." "Ok, good (She cutted me before I could pose the question again). Take a seat on that chair over there."

2 hours later...

and I was poorer by S$350.00.
(Stupid scheming auntie. See me innocent, cheat my money.)

13) Crispy Coffee Buns.

*********
14) I very much prefer dark chocolates
(Especially those with alcohol).

*********

15) I do eat wholemeal bread, wheat, and oat
(Told you I'm a health freak).

*********

16) On the pretence of getting some stuff for my Chinese teacher on one hot afternoon, I entered the Staff Room and started arranging the things on his desk. The truth is, I wanted to enjoy the air conditioner.

So there I was, 8-years-old and happily basking in the cool air like a contented cheshire cat, until another teacher sitting nearby couldn't hold back anymore and asked, "How may I assist you? Mr. Chua is not in school today. What are you searching for on his desk?"
(DRATS!!! Of all days to take MC!!! Should have done my homework.)

17) Crispy Coffee Buns.

*********

18) I took the money, given by my parents, that was intended for my school fees (There was insufficent fund in Giro and thus had to pay via cash) and purchased a rabbit instead. Hehehe...

*********

19) I once spent 45 minutes walking home from SengKang at 1am. Was praying all the way that the charming cops won't pick me up.

*********

20) Hiding my tooth beneath my pillow, I believed that the tooth fairy would appear in the deep of the night, take away that (disgusting) tooth, and leave behind a bag of gold. Mom found it on the floor the next day while she was sweeping, and asked "How come your tooth's still here? Didn't you discard it?" and I gave what I hoped is an innocent, blur look.

*********

21) Did I mention Crispy Coffee Buns?
