Before meeting up with Karen and Anna today for a train ride to the city, I stopped by the post office. I never really understood how to post a letter overseas, so I had a nice long chat to a worker at the post office. After sorting everything out, I enclosed the letter and a picture of Karen and I taken at the beach. The purpose of today's outing was to sell Karen's old text books. I was successful and managed to sell one a couple of weeks before. Better than nothing. Unfortunately for Karen, her books were too outdated :( After the disappointment, we went shopping around MC. Anna and I tried on shoe after shoe before she had to leave for work. Karen and I made our way to the amazing ALL YOU CAN EAT KOREAN BUFFET FOR $10 (ONE HOUR ONLY). Needless to say, I got my money's worth. Since Karen is weak, I took over her heavy trolley of books as we made our way for more shopping! To being broke!

It was finally time for me to start worrying about purchasing books for my brother's second year in high school. Now that I'm older, I'm more willing to buy books online and can travel further to buy books. I decided to pay the main branch of CAMPION a visit since the store at Mentone closed down. It took me about an hour and a half to get to the main store. When I arrived, it was to my horror that they only dealt with administration work. My precious time. Gone. Just like that. For the remainder of the day, I was with Sharon. She recently came back from Macau and a catch up was in order. After a feast for lunch at Nandos, we went shopping. I am so poor because of the amount of shopping I do :(

I have a friend who I only ever see about once or twice every year. Today was one of those days. I met up with Ryan and Tina for a movie date. It's been a while since I've watched anything in the cinemas. I usually watch movies with my family now. I still remember those days where I go to the cinemas by myself. Such a loner :D Before the movie, we decided to have lunch at Pappa Rich. As we were entering, Ryan met a couple of relatives/family friends. Lucky for him, there were two girls with him. He wouldn't be interrogated too much. After the movie, we settled down for some talking. I really miss those talks. Just catching up with friends. Its amazing how natural everything is despite the fact that I don't get to see these guys often. When I got home, my epilator had arrived. MHAHA :D

(Also, Ryan wore the badge I made the whole day. SLAVE #2. If only JP would wear hers...)

One of the things I hate about hanging my clothes outside is the spiderwebs on the pegs and washing line. So I decided to do something about it. I bought the family a peg basket and washed and cleaned the pegs. I also trashed any that were too old for further use. By the end of the cleaning process, I found more than 10 dead spiders in the water. I. HATE. SPIDERS.

Spent the afternoon with the siblings completing the wood puzzles my sister got us. Thank goodness I had a glue gun. My Eiffel Tower just kept collapsing everywhere. After one arts and craft project done, I wanted to do another one. So I took out my feather headband I got recently and all my pink nailpolish out. I dabbed random colours around the feathers and it looked pretty awesome. The only problem is that the nailpolish clumbs the feathers together.

It's the time of the year when I go stationary shopping. I love stationary shopping, even though I don't really need a range of pens, highlighters, pencils, paper etc anymore. But as the oldest sister, it's my job to buy them for my brother, so I still have my fun. After stationary shopping, I was chilling with my sister and brother. I found this odd looking chip. I swear it looks like it has a face on it. My sister surprised us with a present - some wood puzzles. I got the Eiffel Tower. She got herself a windmill and my brother got a ship.

Started the day off waking Karen, Yen and Ron up at 7AM. It's amazing how my voice simply invigorates others :D
It's been a while since I had been an alarm clock. Feels nice. I had an early breakfast at Karen's house while waiting for Ron. It was the first time I've ever had boiled egg and I quite liked it. Although it was a bit early, I was pretty excited to finally do/go (?) 1000 steps. Finally, finally, after all these years, I'm finally able to do it! The journey was...interesting. I think we're going to make this an annual tradition! After the amazing fun, we went shopping and had lunch at Paesano.
Since we started the day early, we still the whole day ahead of us. After lunch we went to Southland for more shopping fun. But what now? The beach of course. On one of the hottest days of the summer. Boy did we have fun. I think we had the most fun during the car rides though, taking turns putting our phones/iPod on speaker.

Happy New Year!
I ended up working for my aunty so I had nearly front row seats to the fireworks.
I actually had no idea how many hours I would work for, so I didn't sleep the whole day.
I was so tired by the end of it.
I don't know how I actually made it home.

Cooking with Kim and Anna!
Haven't had my fortune told in ages.
We found a really big useless spatula to use haha.
Saw a festival at the temple while I was walking home from Anna's house.
The moon was really pretty too. Too bad my camera sucks.
