Life's Sick Lil' Games...

Been eating non-stop this past week...holidays make me wanna eat like a pig...went to Chilli's for lunch...mom's treat! The steak was rather bland...didn't have any sauce on it...dad's grilled lamb too! But mom's ordered the salmon, and I wished I did too! It was...mmmm!!! Vegetarian fajitas were ok, but no meat for me = NOOOOO!

Why did we eat out? Coz i wanted to buy me a pair of sneakers.

And guess what? Mom offered to buy 'em for me! I wouldn't let her pay the full amount, so I paid half...I feel so bad when she buys stuff for me, knowing well that she should buy something for herself...but i'm happy to have a new pair of Nike Air...after having the same Skechers for 5-6 years. At least, shoes like these last long, coz I doubt i'd buy another pair soon.


ON TO ANOTHER TOPIC...

===================================================================


MY HORRIBLE WEEKEND VACATION:

Ever watched this movie called 'The Money Pit'? It was one of Tom Hanks' earlier movies with Shelley Long...

It's about a couple who bought their 'dream home'...only to watch it crumble one piece at a time. One catastrophe after another...it's too damn funny!

Now, flash forward to 2009!

My family had a last minute decision to go for a 2-day trip...since it was the Chinese New Year season, everyone but dad said we wouldn't be able to get a room at a decent hotel, as they were all fully booked. But noooo, dad said "we'll just go check things out over there"...and after checking all the nice places, we discovered this apartment complex next to a resort...Yuxxxxx!!! No parking...then dad inspected the room..."450 a night for this ugly piece of shit?", I thought!

Dad said we had to make do with what we had, and so...the nightmare begins...

No cable-TV...fixed! Good, I say!

No air-conditioning...only one room's air-cond was fixed...the other two...NO! Shit, I say!

Dirty, sandy floor...dusty utensils...dusty furniture...BAAAD, I say!

Damn expensive stuff at the sundry...OUCH, I say!

So, we decide to go eat at the "resort" restaurant, and WTF is all I can say...bad service (or no service at all, I must say), stupid staff (they don't even know what a steak knife is! WTF!!!), incompetent, lazy SOBs! Arrrggghhh...i would never snap at people, coz i have empathy...but one thing I can't stand are stupid people! I just won't talk about the shit that happened, as it still reside in my mind...maybe one day, I will look back and laugh at the horror that is that so-called restaurant-which-I-can't-even-remember! So bad...so, so bad!!!

And last, but not least: THERE WAS NO WATER...WE COULDN'T EVEN TAKE A SHOWER!!!

Some trip...

We were so horrified at this, it felt surreal...a resort? really? They couldn't even provide ample parking over here!!! So, dad couldn't sleep, probably regrets saying buhbye to his hard-earned cash for a crappy stay at the 'Money Pit Lodge' (not its real name). We actually got up early in the morn to go home...anything to get out of this hellhole! To our relief, dad actually got back half of his money from the management...and we saw many, many families complaining to each other, waiting to claim theirs too! LMAO!

Well, at least we had a nice view of the sea! But c'mon...near the sea, but no water? That just too much!!! And that fucking dinner we had? Mom paid like over 200 bucks!

I pity my parents...all they wanted to do was spend some quality time with us, but circumstances did not allow it to happen...well, as much hell as it was, we had fun and love being able to spend this time out together...we knew the effort you made, and are so thankful...and baby, despite everyone else, had a blast! Hahahah!

But next time...please book a nice room at a decent place, k! Love you guys a lot!

What would you do if you were on a month's vacation out of uni, had no money, and your friends are busy with work or college?

I don't know...help!

So i have a few books to read...is that all i'm gonna do this time?

Plus! This just in: My mom's been posted in Sabah from the 15th of December-15th of January yet again!!! You know what that means, right?

No Christmas Eve, no Christmas spirit, no New Year's Eve...nada! Ok, ok...so it's better for the parents' finances coz it'll pay for the xmas extras. I've said many times to them that "I'm all for it!"...well, i was/am just being a good sport...I mean, it's a good thing...but I can't be selfish by showing my unhappiness. I just can't do that! Even my two youger sisters do not feel like I do, I can tell...

So why am I feeling this way? Maybe because my mom was the one who took care of me throughout my childhood (unlike my two siblings)...my middle sis was taken care of by a nanny since she was six or so...and the baby? Well, now it's dad's turn to be Mr. Mom. My dad was always the one who went to diff locations for work.

It's like the two switched places, which is funny. My dad works nights now. It's a family effort when it comes to taking care of baby...so we all have our share of responsibilities. C'mon, i'm 21, and my middle sister is 18...it's so much fun, though...so no complaints there...

Looking at my baby sister, it's like...I dunno. Sometimes I feel like it's surreal, maybe it's all a dream. It's like having a bundle of joy...or your very own living doll at home. I tell you, if it wasn't for baby A, we wouldn't be half as close as we are now. My middle sis' shenanigans have ceased to zilch, my dad has mellowed from his strict exterior, now showcasing a soft side...my mom? Whoah, she's a tiger now! Lol! Maybe the last two scenarios are brought on by hormones.

Back to the title...

What the heck am I supposed to do during this time off? Is this a foreshadow of a sucky xmas? Geez, the possibility of my mom not being here is already giving me a glimpse of a not-so-happy xmas! And New Year!

Shit!!! And...it will be my 22nd New Year (21st, technically)...OMG, why does time have to go on quickly? I didn't even have fun this year...I thought time flies when you're having fun?

And there's your whiny post, yet again. Til I get in the xmas spirit, I will not post another happy post! Feel free to pour in words of affirmations!

Toodlez, bitches!

Yeah, baby...

2nd term=OVER!

Freshman year=O-V-E-R!!!

I'm getting a 2-month long vacay, but i don't know if i should work, or...NOT? Mom's making me go to work somewhere, but i feel kinda lazy, you know? I guess the stress kinda makes me wanna take a break for real and chill out at home, maybe get fat(ter!), catch up on my TV, and wheel my way into obesity...

Ok, ok, maybe that's a little too idle, this wish of mine, but damn...i don't know what part-time job i would wanna do. I've tried the hotel industry, then tried the audio-visual industry, and now what should i do? Be a cashier? Hell no...

I could handle being a dog walker, a bounty hunter, etc...but i don't think services like that are available in this country...LOL!!! Haha...bounty hunter...Haha!

Oh, and if you couldn't guess, i seem like i'm kinda out of my head, right? Well, maybe it's coz i am...kinda...dunno what's wrong today...

Anyway, gtg now, guess i'll be blogging more often than unusual since i'm gonna be so freakin' free...

Toodlez, bitches!
