Loopie - Joop

As much as I hate being a rambling fool, i ramble. on and on. until i get irritated with my voice and stop myself. I will stop myself after 2 paras. I remember saying to my groggy self one morning, after 3 months of getting the hair straightener and spending 15 mins in front of the mirror each morning, meticulously straightening my hair, in sections mind you, that i will most definitely take the plunge and invest in rebonding/ceramic straightening and all sorts of other nonsense that will negate the 15 mins spent each morning with hot irons.   15 more mins to sleep in. wow, that sounds like a plan... until you find out that it costs $600... haha! that changes things now.  would i spend $600 on something that will only last for a maximum of 3 months, given that my hair will grow out curly? perhaps not.  i don't want to have half straight half curly hair.  so that plan has been thrown out of the window. I also recall saying to Matt one day some months back, that given i've be

So, I had a rough weekend.  the weather didn't do much to uplift my spirits.  i didn't get a hangover on saturday and i could still get to ballet class at lunch time, survived it and then rush to masters after class to look for snuggies.  my liver is responding well to training - it has adapted well to heavy drinking on friday nights. i got my results for exam 4.  i passed, with better than expected results.  v good v good. i've updated my resume and sent it off to HR and the agency.  i've consoled myself that if this thing doesn't pan out like i had imagined, i can always go somewhere else with my qualifications.  i'm sure there's someone out there who would risk a limb to hire me.  i'm pretty worth it, i imagine. 2.5 more working days till the flight home.  can't wait to see everyone.

2010 was always going to be significant.  When i made the decision to sign most of my twenties away in 2000, 2010 became the finishing mark of servitude. Even though i'd extended the end-mark by almost 3 years now, i was pretty determined to make sure that 'this is it', I WILL NOT BE IN SERVITUDE IN 2011.  Through fervent prayers, i seem to have been blessed with what i had wished for 3 years... anyway, it's within grasp and it no longer seems such a faraway goal. I have been jumpy all week cos results are out tomorrow afternoon.  i'm scared.  gotta pray hard for good results.

Happy New Year!!! It's a start of a new year as well as a brand new decade!  i've decided not to make any new year resolutions this time, cos i never keep them anyway.  but i do have some general idea of what i want to do this year: pass exams 5 & 6 work hard and play hard attend ballet class at least 2 times a week head to shanghai in May possible trip to Alaska in Aug learn more Korean beyond those commonly used phrases What do you plan to do this year?
