splinter!!!

happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you... ^_^ it's 23rd october, that's... my brother's birthday! haha. guilty tho'... didn't manage to get him a prezzie. think i'll just present him with cash. haha. i asked him what he wanted and that was his reply a week ago. hm...

anyway, in case anyone was wondering about the relevance of splinter!!! there is in fact no relevance. haha, anyone got tricked? it's purely because i'm rid of the irritating splinter in my finger. hahaa.

the story of the splinter started yesterday (for convenience, i'll refer to today as saturday ^_^). so it was that yesterday morning, i got this funny splinter in my finger, at the very first joint counting from the tip of the left index finger. so if was stuck pretty deep and kind of hurt me whenever i crooked my finger, so i woke my mum up from her sleep and got her to remove it for me...

it was a sort of mini-excavation project... a small hole was dug, and the splinter was removed with a pair of tweezers that were a bit too clumsy for the job >_< that was... ouch. haha, but the best part of it is that half of it broke and stayed stuck deeper than before in my skin...

haha, so i thought it was hm, okay, just leave it be. then i realised later in the day, when i got a second splinter, that the splinter was some refective material... i think it's the chromed silver or aluminium on my tap that peeled off... so i got worried about the other bit staying in my skin. haha, so another excavation project went on just now, and i finally got it removed.

but my finger's seriously sore >_< that's better than having pus and swelling due to the presence of the splinter in my skin... my god. my grandpa, dad and kel all told me that pus would develop *cries* and that was scary enough...

*pouts*

but actually, i think i'm just whining up here about the splinter coz i thought it was a pretty funny affair -- i never had an excavation into my skin on purpose... zzz.

apart from that, i went down to marina south to help out today. haha. gosh, it was busy. super duper heng it didn't rain... else i think i'll faint from trying to relocate everyone from the open into the limited space we have that's sheltered. then apart from being stuffy, it would become cramped, sutffy, hot, stuffy, noisy, stuffy, and with slippery floors from all the inconsiderate bastards who drop their eggs on the floor and don't alert any member of the staff to do anything about it. and those idiots who shell their prawns and dump the whole mountain of shells on the floor by their tables. all idiots.

yes, they pay to eat here. but this money is also spent in such an ungracious manner it just leaves no room for respect for all those associated with them. for those who know which particular category of consumers i'm talking about -- bingo. i never used to dislike them so much, until i started helping out regularly at marina south a year back or two.

as for those who don't understand, you can take it that i'm talking gibberish to vent out some frustration over some matters that you don't have any responsibility over ^_^

haha. after all, what is a blog for but to rant and babble?

oh! and i took quite a few pictures with my grandma and my mother on my phone cam. then various of my aunt and grandpa, my mum and grandma... coz the really cute thing is, my mum looks like my grandmaloads, and my aunt resemble my grandpa to a large extent... haha. and since i actually look quite like my mum, i thought it'll be fun to take a picture of the three of us tgether, so i can look back at it when i'm loads older and see how much i've grown to look like my mum. maybe then, i can take a similar picture with my daughter (who i hope will look like me, coz i want a pretty daughter ^_^ yikes) and my mum. hahaA.

but other than that today was rather uneventful... quite a sucky day in studying tho'. managed to keep up to the schedule, but not performing up to expectations. JIAYOU!!!

ooh. i quote i ripped off weiming's site (mingyawns.blogspot.com):

having sex is like playing daidee -- if you don't have a good partner, you's better have a good hand. LOL.

(tho' i personally think bridge or spades might be a better choice ^_^)
