i have recently noticed that
the supermarket queue i join nearly always turns out to be the slowest-moving. some item belonging to a woman a few places in front will not scan properly, or someone prefers to pay by credit card, and the card-reader get jammed and times out.
on a 2-lane road, the lane i'm on always turns out to be slower because of an obstruction, or a driver waiting to turn right at the traffic light.
after reading LMD's post on her horrendous haircut, i am craving for a haircut myself. except my hair is too short to do anything worthwhile with at the moment.
with the onset of winter, i am drinking more water to justify boiling more water in my plastic 1.8litre kettle, just so i can hug the hot kettle while i work. i know a hot water bottle will help, but it's just not the same as a huge kettle.
i like taking long walks on sunny afternoons. back in singapore, it would have to be at least past 8pm that i'd be persuaded to take a walk outside for longer than 10minutes.
there is so much steam in the bathroom after my bath that i'd choke if i took too deep a breath.
the book i intended to read during the train ride to/from the city almost never gets read.
i don't care much for what's on tv, besides CSI:NY.
my parenting instincts are not at all well developed. i avoid toddlers like the plague and i'd much rather have a puppy.
in stark constrast to the lack of parenting skills, my abilities at procrastinating have increased tremendously. the graduate research conference is 4 days away, and i'm thinking yay. i'll get started tomorrow. the studio's the worst place to be in, because everyone else is printing, pasting, typing and editing away. me? hey, i have a life, y'know.
that's dart the frog, and hedgehog contemplating some red m&ms, because S suggested they tasted better!

Those M&Ms are huge! Peanut?
when you say... you noticed ur supermarket queue ur in is always the slowest... i believe its just that day =)
like the traffic light always seem to stay at red for a longer time when you're in a hurry!
anyways... u cannot be as down with luck as me =)
it's not us, it's THEM.
=P enjoy life!
maoie: it's a mix... peanut, no-nut and that crispie thingy. they look good, eh? :D
pangster: you're a bit down on luck, i agree. look on the bright side, though... at least you won't be caught behind forever-red traffic lights for awhile.
kachuaz: THEM who are always slowing things down??
lexie: got stuck for 1/2hr at chapel st once, because of the exact scenario you described!
and you'd think the low humidity here would leave your piano alone. maybe your piano's too near the bathroom!
and nah, too hard up for money to go back to singas so often. lucky you! i'm getting homesick with all the cold weather... wish i could go back, though.
yeap! and WE are the efficient people around with very little time to spare. LOL
1) two words: Murphy's Laws.
2) i've heard rumors that a girl once took either a too-long or too-hot shower (but prolly a combination of the two) that the steam from her shower set off the fire alarm of her entire hall. that, plus the fact that i tend to feel suffocated in saunas, discouraged any lingering (as much as my body would love to) in hot showers during winters. =/
as soon as you step out of your shower, leave your shower stall's door shut and open your bathroom door - that was what i always did.
3) i've yet to thank you for sending me that pic. it made my day: thank you =)
spyda! got MSN bo?
kachuaz: i'm on skype all the time, and yahoo IM hardly-of-the-time. but sorry... no MSN. :( get skype! its instant messaging function is pretty cool!
s: yikes! thought smoke alarms detected smoke (more carbon, less water) rather than vapour from extended baths! but i couldn't leave the bathroom door open even for a bit - i'd freeze 'cuz the rest of my igloo is about as warm as a refrigerator. haha!
and. you're welcome. making peoples' day, that's what i do. :)
twit: i always predict i'll be reading, but end up staring out of the window at the lovely scenery. trains in oz are different from the mostly-underground ones in singapore. and the seats aren't placed such that passengers are forced to face each other, so eye-contact is greatly diminished.
i got skype! add mi: kachuaz
how original.
lol
