i miss the canoeists terribly. :(

and plsplspls someone tell me they hate the tvmobile ad too?! gah. i absolutely despise it.
i wanted to adrant (mespeak for 'ranting about ads') but that'll have to wait. i've got to finish at least half of The Right Word and read the whole of my chi lit (i think the english title is Fox Volant of the Snowy Mountain) text before i leave for shanghai. mum's orders.

hello this is so Hannah Heaven. :}
before i get bashed up for being a traitor to the "pink=bio-hazard" movement, let me tell you how cute my mum is :)
my mum was out the whole morning and sometime during noon, she heard my stomach rumbling. or was it the thunder? hmm.. anyways, she called home and after some discussion, declared she doesn't trust me to cook myself a nutritious lunch (last time i did, i cooked maggi mee and scrambled eggs, not nutritious meh? got protein and carbs what!) so she decided she would buy me lunch and drop by. but she hasn't got much time see, so she bought the healthiest fast-food she can think of.. guess what she got me?

a macdonald's grilled chicken foldover and a HAPPY MEAL! you know the one in the advertisment where a woman does yoga and her lil kid tries to imitate her moves? yah. that one. with corn and stuff.
X) i can prove it:

this is the Strawberry Shortcake toy that came with it. it's called Angel Cake.

i couldn't stop grinning :)

so maybe that's why i decided to give pink a chance.
maybe.

and in other news: i'll be leaving for my bicultural trip in a week's time.. by then, the canoeists would have been in laos for 10 days. i hope elisa isn't still cutting grass ;) and i wonder how muddy's doing what with them having to eat spicy veggies every meal (or so amanda says). X)

ABSOLUTly fabulous!

i've borrowed this awesome (i can just see mr s*wden withering like an unwatered garden veggie now) advertising book from the library and omggxx the ads are darned good! it's the "ABSOLUT BOOK", and as the title suggests, is full of ABSOLUT VODKA ads. lots of fABSOLUT puns, and amazing graphics.. i'll scan some of my favourites and post them up when i have the time :) now i'm itching to go back and grab ABSOLUT SEQUEL >:)

anyways, speaking of puns, elisa and i had a PoP field day yesterday!! i think i sort of went crazy haha. it's the combined high from being back amongst my favourite group of people after missing 2 trngs and uh.. hunger, i think. X)

you know i'm a lazy pig so this is shamelessly ripped from elisa's blog, comments added:

The puns are back! Yang and I wrecked our brains (that's a bienapropism! --huh?) and very soon, the puns/witty comments started to overflow. Woots.

Joo: She keeps using her biceps and forearms to do pullups.
Muddy: *to me* You should do more pullups, then soon your arms will be one big block.
Yang: Then she'll need BINOCULARS to see what she's writing!

I don't understand why no one was amused, because it was SO FUNNY and Yang and I were laughing so hard, me until tears came to my eyes.

Me: This is baddd. I really can't think of any puns! --actually elisa starts looking really pensive at this point, which prompted me to ask, in horror, "are you trying to think of one now? on the spot?"
Yang: YARH. Oh dear, I need a fruit punch!
Me: HAHA. ...OHMYGOODNESS FRUIT punch! Get Fruit to punch you!

Me: *picks up a random leaf lying on the ground and presents it to Yang* Yang, I will never leaf you! =)
Yang: HMPH! *sticks out left hand at me* I have already left you!
*both of us are laughing while random people die from our lameness*
Me: *presents the leaf to Yang again* I will leaf you up! =D

Hahaha this next one is classic, because of some of the words we used. Note how exams have gotten to Van's brain.

Van: Eh people, remember to change your photos if your baby photo is unrecognisable. Don't want afterwards we all get retained at customs.
Someone: Wah Van, it's detained, not retained. You've been thinking too much about school already larh.
Yang: Hmmm.. so if you update your passport photo you'll be promoted? Is it a custom to get promoted?

- On bus, Yang and I are recalling our puns and we come to the left hand one -
Me: *sticks out right hand at Yang* You're right!

i think sometime very soon, elisa and i will be able to deadpun. yknow, pun deadpan. >;)

tuesday night fever

here's a sentence that's stuck in my head, ".. the lunatics have taken over the asylum"

i'm sleepy.. and semi-celebratous (drat, where did that come from?) over the fact that after i've pieced together my I&R in a passably coherent manner, i can finally say GOOD RIDDANCE to PW!! woots. and go back to bed! double woots!

so, why am i sleepy? because i have never slept sooooo much in my entire life. serious. seventeen hours straight from 7pm on tuesday to noon on wednesday! followed by a half an hour break for lunch, and another 6 hours in the afternoon! try and beat that! hah! ..all because of a mysterious (ok maybe not so mysterious, i think it's thanks to the flu jab) bout of fever from which my mum derived much joy and entertainment. because she claims i was so feverish i was muttering gibberish. like the following incident which she related to janell over the phone:

(mum comes into my room, nudges me)
mum: hey you wanna get up and have a glass of water?
me: no, i'm not thirsty, i drank some already..
mum: really? when?
me: i went to the fridge just now
mum: ok.. and what did you drink?
me: the carton of soy milk
mum: are you sure? do you mean the honey dew juice? or maybe the carton of florida's natuaral grapefruit?
me: the soy milk.. aiyah. i drank it already lah. not thirsty (rolls over)

obviously, there is no trace of any soy milk in the fridge. not because i actually did drink it, but because it never existed. darn. i cant even lie properly in my sleep. ( i will refrain from saying it is thru no fault of my bed which is perfectly springy and comfy :} )

the funny thing is i distinctly remember seeing myself lug a carton of nutrisoy from the fridge and guzzling it all in one go.. hmm.

OII ARE YOU LISTENING MR/MS NUTRISOY? don't you think i deserve at least a lifetime's supply of your fabulous, uh.. dreamy soy milk? i'll sell you my dream sequence or something :)

[edit]
kal found out that i am a song sung by Yoko Ono. i read the lyrics... and i'm really really really sorry about this, but my first reaction was to laugh.
hey at least i'm honest alright?
