I was left speechless just now. Like omfgosh stunned into speechlessness.


Oh what the hell.


But anyway, I cant stand those really practical people. Like if I am of no practical use to that person, the person won't even bother to keep up with the usual hi-byes. And even when that said person is my cousin.


Oh, did I mention that this particular cousin greets my parents with enthusiasm when he sees them around in shopping malls? "Oh.. What are you doing here? yada yada yada yada.." Really friendly guy, my parents would say. Ah. Married well, have a good job, have a cute kid.


But it's an entirely different thing when I bump into him and his family in the shopping mall. Friendly waves and smiles were greeted by a grunt of acknowledgement, without even a glance at me.


Friendly guy yeah. Friendly 'cause he's a financial consultant, and often call my parents up, telling them if they need financial advice, he can provide them. *money signs gleaming from his eyes* Friendly when he didnt have a car and needed to go for family dinner, and would call / sms me a gazillion times just to see if my dad can give him and his wife a ride. Friendlier still when he wants a ride back home. Friendly when he wants something from you, but not so friendly when I have nothing to offer you 'cause I'm young and oh, he didnt know? I have just started working.


Now he has a condo *gasped my aunt* (Ooooh wow. Like my ass would care.), a car *gasped gasped* (Ooooh wow. I think my fingernails are more interesting.), a cute kid (that is outgrowing his cuteness, really.), he doesnt really need anything from you anymore. So he could afford to grunt and disregard you.


Gone were the days when he got suicidal, and the whole family had to go talk to him, to get him down the ledge, to convince him not to jump. Gone were the days when my dad had to fork out money just to allow him to see a shrink and what's not.


Come CNY, he would be at his best PR'ing again -- flinging his son around, milking on the relatives' soft spot for toddlers, distributing his namecards, and telling people about financial consultation and what's not.


But I swear, gone are the days of me saying hi nicely. Maybe I will just flip my hair and walk past him like a stranger if I have the swayness of seeing him outside again.

Ooops. Sorry for MIA'ing! I have been busy being a domesticated Kimberly aka the Maria from Timbuktu. I clean, I pack, I wipe, and I do everything.


That is the ritual for moving house I guess.


The new house is great. I have been sleeping really well here. Except for the part where the water pressure for the shower isnt strong enough, there seems to be more bugs while living on the 10th level instead of the 6th level (I seriously don't know why this is the case. Do bugs fly higher and miss out the lower levels totally or something?), and the fact that I have to raise my voice to get heard, everything's really great.


While I am missing the old house, I think I have been kept too busy at the new house to miss it that badly. Packing away things in the kitchen and throwing away unwanted stuff gave me an odd sense of satisfaction. I seriously don't know what is wrong with me. Maybe I'm getting so domesticated that I like doing all these stuff recently? Oh wells.


Anyhow, while packing a few weeks back, I found some of my very first glasses that I ever wore when I was Primary 2!!!


Are you ready to check them out? They are so damn hip hop that I didnt even think it's possible to wear them on my face.




Ahhh.. Absolutely fugly.



And ready for how it looks like on my face????



Are you sure you are ready????


Alright.. Here it is!




!@#$%^&*()_ FUGLY!!! =XXXX



And the second pair I had.




I seriously wonder what overcame me to choose this disgusting pair of glasses. What's with the spots?!?!?!


Anyhow, this is so disgusting looking.


Gear yourself for the worst alright?




ARGHHHH.


Why didnt anyone stop me from choosing those horrid glasses?!?!?!? Argh argh argh.


Anyhow, please do be rest assured that I do not ever look like that now. Here's a normal chio pic of me that has rather swollen eyes with my favourite adorable Ah Gong.




=))


Ok, come back in a month's time for my next post ya? HAHA.
