Day12- Piano Exam

Just came back from NVAC-Expo mtg at Suntec Mac. There's write-ups to do and stuff...heralds a busy week. Plus I'm going back to work tmr. I'm kinda hooked onto taking leave now, be it for camp/ driving lessons etc. I don't want to work!! Have caught the lazy bug already.

The examiner today was a beardly, over-sized Caucasian. Quite friendly, reminded my of Santa Claus, there were some slips along the way, but I think should be able to pass. I don't hold very hopes for high pass, just a pass and I'm satisfied. It's been a long journey, time to mark an end...

Because our stupid microwave oven has broken down, plus I was chased out of the house, I had to desperately call up all my Marine Parade friends hoping to borrow a microwave to heat up the hotpack. In the end, I decided to pop by CF clinic to warm it up. Don't feel very good abt it initially cos I thought better "Gong si fen ming", but then it was the only solution cos my Marine Parade friends deserted me! Boohoo...

Oh and this week, I suddenly begin to feel that I have a night-life. It's like 7 days a week I've been hanging out till past midnight. My taxi fares are like record high this week. Today I took 1 to Marine Drive and the cab driver was talking to me about traffic jams/COE/LTA etc. He says that 5 years ago there were 20000 cars, the road has 3 lanes, today there are 50000 or was it 70000 cars and still 3 lanes. In 10 years time, 100000 cars and still 3 lanes? How not to have traffic jam? Ans: ERP....Anyway, taxi drivers have a way of keeping the journey entertaining, he also told me about female taxi drivers being more "hiong" or gutsy than male drivers and charge incredulous amounts to tourists......Ya....

I went to the hawker centre for lunch. There was this drink uncle, keep calling me "mei nu" non-stop, even when I refused to buy a drink from him (fruit juice). Then not only does he keep calling me that, even behind my back, he referred to me to his stall partners the same way.... I think enough is enough, do business you need to sweet-talk pple sometimes but I felt pretty awkward when he didn't know when to stop. When I finally did order watermelon from him, and he served watermelon juice instead, much to my dismay, he still kept calling me that, even when returning my change.... Hai* some pple never see pretty girls before...=p

The weather is sweltering hot these days. I feel like a hippopotamus. I don't know why but I'm reminded that the hippopotamus with their thick skin can get skin cancer under the sun. Can't shake the thought and whenever the weather is hot I'm reminded of the hippos (and they must be powder pink)...
