Merry XMAS!

I went to Christmas Party at my Grandma's house yesterday. Didn't get to meet up with the rest of 07 cause mine ended late, and parents say don't go liao. -.- Anyway, I stuffed myself yesterday. There's KFC, Pizza Hut, Golden Pillow (where outside is the bread and insde is the curry chicken), some weird salad thing, mango and durian cake and ICE CREAM! Apparently, 07 people also had KFC and Pizza Hut. LOL!!! Anyway, didn't really enjoy myself yesterday, cause I'm not very close with my cousins. This cousin of mine was like bragging how she got transferred to Temasek Sec using her wonderful Sec 1 results. (She's in Sec 1 this year) Apprently, she just wrote to the principal herself, called for an interview, and she just got transferred like that. Talk about initiative. Anyway, she repeated this for like so many times that my sis was rolling her eyes. Wahaha! And recently, my uncle transferred job from IT sector to teach in Loyang Sec. And that cousin was giving him advice on how to teach properly. Was so irritated in the end that I want to go to party at vincent's house, but parents continued to talk. ARGH!

Anyway, talk about presents. I didn't receive and cups, towels, photoframes, candles and candle holder this year! Which is a good sign. Every year, I used to receive candles and photoframes from my cousins. Don't know why they changed this year. :)

And thanks to my friends who wished me a merry christmas! :) Sm suggested new year party on 1 Jan in Vincent's house. Haha!

Can we just spilt up GP? Everyone do according to their register number can! I can't seem to start on that irritating GP :/

Isn't this discrimination

Okay! I just read a commentary on TIME magazine about mixed marriages. It said that there is no big deal marrying someone of a completely different generation, and 4% of all marriages are now interracial. Not even your grandparents will get lathered up if you marry someone of another colour. However, there is one mixed marriage that will always draw stares- that is: marrying outside your looks. Quote "Marrying a few degrees up or down the hotness scale". And it said that guys who marry a woman who is a few rungs up in the looks ladder are often perceived as cool and rich. (Note: Donald and Melanie Trump). However, women who marry up is said to be deluded and desperate! Isn't this a form of discrimination?!? The writer also said that these marriages are often very challenging and stressful as many people will feel that the marriage is "mismatched".

Well, just some food for thought here.

Back!

OK! I'm back to blog, since jon says he wants to slap me for not blogging. AGAIN. But there's nothing interesting to blog about seriously. To continue where I left off on my last post, Stardust is a blast! It's really really nice and it's one of the best movies I have watched in my 17 years (Lord of The Rings is also fabulous =D ) I just watched The Golden Compass last Saturday with my family. I can't say it was nice. I'm really disapointed since the book was like WOW!

My internship at KKH is over! I didn't get paid, but it's really just an experience for me. But I should be lucky that my internship lasted for one week. I was so tired everyday after I reached home. I'm also curious to know why since I just stood around the whole day. I had several mentors for each "department" I went to. (10 to be exact) 9 of them were nice. 1 of them is evil. I shall not talk about her in my blog in case I get sued by KKH. People who want to know just come and ask me. =DD And I witnessed quite a lot of "digusting" things during my internship, such as mammography, fluoroscopy and ultrasound. I shall not go into the details since it will freak you out. (I told Elisse and she is definitely freaked out. Think I spoilt her appetite for lunch somehow). But after my internship, I realised Singaporeans are not that conservative after all, especially the women in the 50s. They dare to do something which I never will comtemplate doing. Shall not elaborate.

Anyway, I probably won't be spending Christmas with my 07 friends. Got family and relatives Christmas party too. I guess I can rush over from that party to Vincent's house? ARGH.
