*331 - do it for me

Dancing in the amphi nearly killed me because 1. grimy 2. the rough patches HURT me 3. no aircon (bimbotic whining) 4. open for anyone walking past to see (shy lah, giggle).

Dance partner Des wasn't around so I was Kris for the day and danced with Kohzy, who is super tall so getting lifted felt like an amusement park ride to me, quite fun! But polygamy is bad, so Desmond come back soon. Hehehe. :P

Was pleasantly surprised on the way out of school by the very distinctively Joan-ish voice which went "Evelyn?!" And now I'm very proud to say that I know the first female tenor in RJ choir ever! Hehehe I had to sit down to finish laughing and calm my feeble heart after I heard the news.

And speaking of Joan, our estate's up for en bloc sale! Which is a very very significant occasion for me because I've been living in this ancient little house for my entire life! And more! (As in, the family settled here even before I was born.) Much as I love my cosy mismatched lil house, I can't wait to move out, and Elisa & I are already having fits of happiness at the thought of taking charge of the designing of the new house. Ooooh. I think I will be very very sad when we have to move, but for now, wheee. Exciting prospects!

Other exciting news include getting accepted by Babson (Shib you were right!) but no news yet from the 2 other more prestigious universities. And I haven't even applied for the local unis - something lifescience related might be nice but unless I study until the PhD level, I'll be stuck washing test tubes for a living. So I'm exaggerating, but. We'll see.

The recent hawker food lifestyle change is doing good for my pocket, no doubt, but the same cannot be said for my tummy. Displayed my sad ignorance of hawker fare yet again when wondering out loud what mee hoon looked like. It kind of reminded me of the times in school where everyone tried their best to teach me the difference between mee pok and mee kia and mee swa so I could order food from the noodle stall without panic.

Long car rides, popping by this place or that on the spur of the moment, chatting with the windows rolled down.

Some days we should just take it easy. Leave the deadlines and the worries behind us. Just, you know, chill, and go where our whims and fancies take us. No need for elaborate plans, no need to dress up or pretty up, no need to talk much even. Just floating along, unperturbed by everything around us, blissfully, in our cosy little bubble worlds.

Of course, that only lasts a while.

But still.

I actually went to bed, tossed and turned and fretted, bounced out again and started dancing. (And now blogging.) To BananAmy if you've read all the way until here, I NEED YOUR HELP! I have the steps but I need to put the ribbons in. Short short one, very easy lah. I also need to have a date with you because it's been a looooong time. (:

Diphenoxylate hydrochloride and atropine sulphate? Wha..? Chemistry was never my forte, haha. And by the way, j, who are you ah? :P

And my bakies aren't yummy enough to be sold! I'm working on it though. (: Baking is my new hobby, seeing myself get so tremendously excited over recipes makes even ME laugh at me.
