Had a late night chat with my friend yesterday. Basically chatted everything under the sun from assignments and freaky people in school to the dresses that i bought for jas's wedding to BGR. Well vacation is somehow nice for us to relax and enjoy but things can get really boring when the vacation is too long. Not really used to it cos i felt like a lazy bum idling at home. Tried applying for tempt jobs, but there's no luck.
Got to know from my friend that next sem we are going to do a Social Studies module that is something to do with Singapore's landmark. Basically we got to check out the place and plan the route and for our assessment, we got to bring a group of "students" out for the field trip that we planned for them and we will be assessed according to our proficiency in classroom management and knowledge of the landmark. Well Doesn't it sounds as if we are going through a tour guide course? Anyway we were joking that perhaps one day we can be tourguides if we dont want to be teachers anymore.
Initially thought its going to be "mission impossible" for me to look for dresses that fit me but i am soooo relieved that i'm able to find myself not one but two dresses for Jas's wedding! Haha But i got to apologise to Jas first cos i will not be able to turn up in pink for the church ceremony. I just couldn't find myself a pink dress. No worries on that day i will make sure i hide behind kit mun so that i wouldn't be a eye sore k. haha
Anyway i'm going to the old folks home tmr for our GESL project. Yes the day has finally come! I have been waiting for it since the mid of semester. Muhaha. But its kinda worrying too. Looks like things weren't as organised as expected. Tried calling the in charge of the Home to confirm with her the programmes for tmr but she went out for a whole day meeting...:( Generally tmr programmes is going to include an art and craft session whereby the residents are going to design their own pre-made photo frame, followed by our line dance performance, then tea time and finally karaoke competition. Haha sounds interesting issn't it. Jus cross our fingers and pray that tmr's event will turn out smoothly.

寂寞沙洲冷
*谨将此歌送给心爱的声璇*
等你走后心憔悴
白色油桐风中纷飞
落花随人幽情这个季节
河畔的风放肆拼命的吹
不断拨弄女人的眼泪
那样浓烈的爱再也无法给
伤感一夜一夜
当记忆的线缠绕过往支离破碎
是黄昏占据了心扉
有花儿伴着蝴蝶
孤燕可以双飞
夜深人静独徘徊
当幸福恋人寄来红色分享喜悦
闭上双眼难过头也不敢回
仍然渐渐恨之不肯安歇微带着后悔
寂寞沙洲我该思念谁

Woosh. It has been a busy day. Had a meeting with my GESL mates regarding our trip to the old folks home this morning. I am glad that at least my group members are quite cooperative compared to other groups. Anyway six of us went to Sheng Siong supermarket to shop for the goodies for our hampers to present to the old folks home. Bought tins of biscuits and milos and canned food and tugged them back to NIE again. The stuffs were quite heavy, luckily there were two strong muscle men to help us. Had lunch at NTU canteen then proceeded to jurong point with one of the group mates to purchase some wrapping papers for the hampers. Was looking forward to the trip to old folks home next friday cos we have been busy preparing for the stuffs for the past few months and finally it's going to mark the end of our GESL module!
Well yesterday my friend remarked that i am strange in the way that my clothes dont conform and he felt very uncomfortable with my silence cos he finds it hard to understand what am i actually thinking of. Anyway there is a saying:" silence is golden". Sometimes i prefer to keep my opinions to myself cos i have gradually found out that people around me can be unreliable. In order to avoid conflicts of interest or offending the other party, i might as well be quiet. Anyway its interesting for a guy to give these types of comments. I just felt that it's very ungentleman for a guy to commend on a girl's dressing, moreover i have only known him for a few months. Anyway think i better not chat with him for the time being, there bound to be disagreements. Its better to keep a distance..

Had a long conversation with my friend late last night and its somehow set me into deep thoughts. Throughout the whole conversation, he kept talking about branded goods and jewelleries like Tiffany and Cartier and it kinda irks me. The matter that irks me is not that i am jealous cos i cant afford a Tiffany ring etc but the way he looked at life. Perhaps he is born with a sliver spoon thus he tend to adopt a different perspective towards his expenditure.
As for me, i am totally the opposite, its not the brand that counts but the momental value. I can buy 50 bags in exchange for a 850 bucks prada bag. People may argue that a branded bag is a timeless piece but issnt it the same if u were to take good care of your 50 bucks bag. Anyway he proceeded to add on that i should ask my future bf to buy me Cartier and not Tiffany cos the latter is more cheapo and i should kept asking him to buy me jewelleries cos guys will normally slack off after marriage and of course after setting up a family.
Well u can say i am a naive or impractical but the most important thing that i look for is the character. It doesnt matter whether the person is poor, as long as he stays true to you, willing to commit to the family, pleasant looking and holds a stable job. Anyway he added on that i am a girl and i have the right to be materialistic and he emphasised the fact that we should spend on ourselves when we were young.
Frankly speaking, i am a person who will frown upon branded goods, but the endless conversation on branded goods somehow tempted me. Taking a look at the people walking on the streets, it looks like its a norm to carry a LV or a Gucci bag. But i should resist to the temptation. Money should be spend wisely.
