J'ai le cafard! ♥
J'ai le cafard! A new term I learnt in French class today. It means I've got the blues....except that cafard means cockroach?! Hahahah. I have no idea why. Maybe the French feels depressed when they see roaches around?
French is really confusing me. Numbers alone are killing me. It's kinda like Math where 70 is 60+10 and 80 is 4x20, and 90 is 4x20+10?! Learning all the grammar stuff is driving me crazy. All the "un, une, des, d', le, la, les, l', de la, du, au, aux" and whatnot which mean basically the same thing but used in different context. Zomg!
Also, my other modules are stressing me out. True, SEA and English has got really really entertaining lectures and the lecturers are funny, Psch and Socio are interesting modules (we had to ask each other pervvy questions during tutorial today 0_o) but...not for an exam! Lack of proper lecture notes and only thick textbooks and course packs of articles to read...guess how much I've done? Yep. Zero. Nada. Zilch. 零. In French, zéro. I've really, really got to get started but I just can't psycho myself enough to do it. I'm done with watching my 50-episodes of Legend of the Condor Heroes 08 and I've got no more excuses to procrastinate. Le sigh.
Also, I absolutely detest people who just keeps going "excuse me. excuse me. tsk!" to you when you want to give way to them but you are waiting for another bunch of people to pass first. Like hello! There are other people who are alighting you know? Can't you like see for yourself? I'm sorry the bloody train/bus is so bloody crowded and I'm sorry I'm made of solid and can't be compressed, and I'm sorry I can't do a Nightcrawler and teleport myself to another empty spot. But can't you just wait for a couple of secs while others pass? Not push me and make the entire stream of people stop and wait for you to alight first, and then turn around and glare at me?! Stupid bitch female member of the dog family.
Talking about dogs, there was this extremely cute Papillion puppy at Trevor's block today. I was looking at it as I walked towards the block coz it was sooo cute then it stared back at me and started wagging its tail. When I was nearer, it walked to me and sniffed at my feet. So I started stroking it although the owner was sitting there, watching =X
Past week had happy moments too! Monday was my weekly meeting with Maggie during our dreadful 3 hours break (and mine, 6). This time, Maggie didn't have classes but still came to accompany me. Merci, dearest! Hahahah. Happy now? We went to City Hall and had Kenny Roger's! Yum! Haven't had our favourite quarter chicken and corn muffin for a loooong time. Then during conversation, I asked if she has had anything else from there other than the quarter chicken and then she says "half chicken". Wow. Sounds so much yummier than my quarter chicken...Then we met up with Jiaying and she said she felt like having Kenny Roger's. Ooops! What coincidence. Hahaha.
Chicken, corn muffin, corn nibblets (hahaha. JH will puke), potato salad, italian green beans thingamajig, macaroni and cheese and a glass of grape soda. Big feast!
Maggie at Pizza Hut with her spaghetti and spicy chicken drumlets!
Mushroom soup!
Then we went shopping for awhile and all we got was Maggie's "that thing". Zomg! You flashed me and the poor salesgirl! Sigh. Each time we have loads of time for shopping, we'll end up with nothing. When we didn't intentionally wanna do any shopping, we'll end up buying alot. Why??
I haven't been getting any mails from SIS...what about you, Maggie? I think we really can't go for the Avril Lavigne concert already...it's this Sunday! What a pity, since it'll be such a nice concert to be at. And zomg! Andy Lau is coming this Dec! I can already imagine Maggie serenading me with the oldies...
Wednesday was steamboat with Maggie and JY at Bugis, another of our regular hangouts. Lol! The uncle was saying how he hasn't seen us for a long time.... Found out some really shocking news which really shocked me. (I've got limited vocab.) All I can say is, I hope everything will turn out well, whatever that comes in future...to each his own anyway. Nonetheless, dinner that day was wonderful. Good food, great company, and loads of laughter and talk. We laughed so hard that Maggie said her baby was going to come out... Tsktsk. Jy and Maggie bullied me into peeling all their prawns again =(( I demand for tips in future. After our extremely long and noisy dinner, the 2 naughty ah-lians still didn't wanna go home so we ended up at KFC drinking hot milo and chatting even more, till it was time for my last train. I can't wait for JY's exams to be over and for us to meet up more often like that. Then again, we're going for lunch tomorrow. Lol!
This is like barely one-tenth of what we ate. Such piggies. -shakes head sadly-
Pretty cups from KFC!
And to end my entry, here is a video I watched during my French class. Double Je/Jeu by Christophe Willem. Rather disturbing video but his voice is like...oh.my.tian. When he opened his mouth to sing, I thought he was just mouthing the words to the song by another singer. Nevertheless, c'est une bonne chanson. This is a really good song, and he has a really interesting voice. Enjoy!
P.S The Muttons are like so super funny. Pardon me for the randomness. I'm listening to their show now.
