Haha “kamera” that’s like malay to us right? Well as I can’t put katakana, hiragana or kanji (forms of Japanese writings) on the titles. I am stuck with the romanji (Romanised) form of the words. So anyway, announcing that all the while the words before this were meant to be hiragana and kanji (those two are usually used together), katakana is usually used to pronounce foreign words like English, French, German the like. So anyway back to the title. “Kamera” is meant to mean “camera”, cause if I use katakana, that’s how it is la, as camera is considered a “foreign” word to the Japanese. From now on if the word is in katakana I will announce, if not it’s the usual.

The title is camera because today I finally got a digital camera!! Yea.. So happy.. And the good stuff was that, it was paid using my pay, yes the 1000 bucks I earned together with a stiff neck, a flat butt , and oh yes stiff shoulders too, for a month, and I was forced to work overtime as well.. Ah yes, my HARD earned money hahaha.. Anyway, its an Olympus, latest one wor my dad said, err.. Don’t really know the specs, but I know that its 600 megapixels? Hahaha.. Playing around with it now, its nice, la I would say. Oh, by the way as its Olympus I am sure many of you are asking 1000 enough meh? Well it’s not, my dad had to fork out another few hundred for me.. Sigh, but it’s about there la

Oh yes, today we (otosan, okasan to watashi/and I) went shopping in BU. I was actually there as a guide more like hahaha cause we went to get tosan’s (short for otosan), things like working shirts, shoe, slippers etc. (but I didn’t really waste my time, as I looked as stuff like sports shoes and heels etc, haha and other stuff that I want to get sometime in the future) as he has a company trip tomorrow and he needed some stuff.. Wah we spent 5 hours shopping man, with my tosan hahaha, usually he will be saying lets go home after an hour plus hahaha.. So actually I am quite tired, I was sitting at every possible place.

Also, I treated dad to dinner, (What’s the occasion? Well, an early birthday dinner? Cause it will not be very convenient to treat dad on his birthday, so might as well treat now while we are out hahaha. So tosan and kasan (short for okasan) both each had a dinner from me hehehe.. I am such a good girl hehehe..) We had Vietnamese food, not bad was quite nice, it cost 58.54, we ordered the set dinner, which included pork ribs, in some sauce, fried tau foo, a plate of vegetables stirred fried and dory fish stirred fried in some sauce as well. (Honestly it was more Chinese than Vietnamese to me, but then again, those two are quite similar.) We were afraid that it wasn’t enough so we ordered one appetizer, which appealed to us because it looked like a donut in the menu ahhaha, anyway that, was all that we ate. We ate till we were so full.. Hahaha

While we were shopping, we thought that we’d get the camera too, after asking around. We went to numerous places to ask, we even went to Shong Lee (that’s Fung Chuan’s shop), I thought that it was safe to go there, (cause when I passed by, there was no May Suan / Fung Chuan there, well Fung Chuan is okay la.. I guess) but guess what, I bumped into May Suan there, hahaha, super awkward. When I saw her I made a U-turn and told my parents that I don’t want to go in already, but I guess they didn’t hear me cause they went in. So fine, I went to a corner where she wasn’t in, and when I had to go to the corner where she was, she kindly and conveniently “got lost” hahaha okay "got lost" is kind of harsh.. Disappeared?

Some of you may know my history with her and it’s not a very pleasant one, the tension increased when she joined the scouter council, and screwed everything up and I (and a few others) had to pick up after her. Though I was quite professional and worked with her when I had to, and was nice to her when I had to, but unwanted confrontation is best avoided. You guys may not be interested in our history, and to post that up will take many many many pages hahaha, so if you want to know, out of your curiosity I will tell you personally (its shorter verbally). It’s nothing much, we just fell out, but the tension between us is like… walaueh, enemies? She wasn’t as bad as Christina Ng that’s for sure. (That’s another story, if you are interested then only I will tell.. haha which I guess is like never, as some of you already know and the rest are not interested hahaha, anyway let sleeping dogs lie)

Anyway, by the way I am writing, you must be thinking, “is my relationship with her that bad?”, well for a former “best friend” (she called me that out of the blue..) actually I guess its okay, as I don’t hate her, honestly, I am quite neutral to her, but we just don’t have anything to talk about anymore, and the fact that she thinks that I stole her boyfriend.. (So absurd.. Why would I want such a jackass, I was just his confidante as she was being a real pain to him, oops, did I mention jackass? Haha he and everyone else are used to that muahaha *evil laughter*)

So, because of that encounter, my parents now know about it, and the reason why we fell out and why she avoided me hahaha. But it’s all in the past so if they know its nothing big. Well, one thing about today was my poor baby, as we went out at 2.30pm and got home at almost 8pm haha the poor thing was starved, so tosan brought him for his quick walk so that he could poop, and then I later fed him.

I also received a mail about troop camp today, sigh, Tuck Loong was asking for volunteers to help and such, pointless la, my parents never let me go camping, cause they say my body is weak, I fall ill easily and now Denggi is rampant. Sigh so sad, a scout who has never been camping.. ~ sob~

Oh yes an announcement, I keep forgetting to tell Xian Ai, but I told Gene already, he was the first to know besides my parents, since before that he had made a big fuss about knowing things last, I posted that before.. Can’t remember which post and too lazy to check. So next month on the 20th of December I should be taking them off and moving on to retainers hahaha, finally after four gruesome years.

Okay that’s all for now, nothing else to say, actually want to hit the sack already but am downloading a song from Gene. I wan to change the world from Inuyasha. Nice song, very energetic kind of feel. So signing off. Oyasumi nasai minna
