Hey!! Now got music har?? So cool right!!! Haha ok so I'm repeating whatever I said on the tagboard but that's because I'm still in the same state. As in the "wow! got music!" state. Heh. Yes, I haven't gotten over it yet. (Thanks, Nic.) Well I've seen other blogs and I'm just so AMAZED at their designs. How do these people do it??? I'm so bad at html and stuff. My blog looks so boring compared to theirs. But, now, I've got music. Hehehe.

Baked today!!! Ok, ok, yes Erica, it was my MUM who baked and I was her diligent, enthusiastic, hardworking, attentive, helpful, full of initiative, assistant. The (mostly walnut and very few choc chips) cookies turned out pretty good!! Just that they're very, uh, fair. I mean, in terms of cookie colours (golden brown is ideal), they're very fair. Yeah, yeah, just like the one who helped to bake them right. I was actually quite tickled at the similarity. Heh. We started out with a mixing bowl and a wooden spoon and the butter was so hard! Then my Mum suddenly said, "Ok, let me get out the electric mixer." And I was like, what??? We have an electric mixer??!!! Hahaha. But the electric mixer wasn't any better!! Haha can you believe it. The two mixing things just stayed there. As in they didn't move around the bowl. So how much can you mix like that?? So we went back to the manual method. At first we thought the cookies weren't going to turn out well but thank God, everything was ok. Just the colour. Yeah. I wanted to dye the cookies red in the first place!! I think red cookies would be cool. No?? Or violet!!! Heh. Anyway, will be giving away the cookies to my friend at Flowers-Attic, Erica (so that she'll get so fat that I'll look skinny next to her heh!)...yup that's about it.

You know, I was telling my mum about how I think I should form my own gang. Haha. As in there're like a few funny gangs in church...the Butterfly Gang, the Firefly Gang, the Dragonfly Gang, the Honey Boys, the Waterboys... yeah, so I'm the honourary member (yes, Nic) of the Butterfly Gang. It's basically pink, butterflies, and short skirts. So you can see why. Haha.. But anyway...yah my mum was saying that I could be the Dragon Girl Gang. Hahaha. And she would be the only other member. I would be Xiao3 Long2 Nu3 (Dragon Girl) and she would be, uh, Lao3 Long2 Ma1 (Old Dragon Mother) or Lao3 Long2 Sao3 (Old Dragon Ah-Soh). We were all getting very nonsense then haha...but then she changed her mind and wanted a cooler name coz, just last night, we'd given our dad the very you3 sha1 qi4 (killer) name of CAPTAIN ONE-CHOICE. Haha big family joke there. Think I've mentioned it before? Yeah. It's about how he always says things like "You can choose where you want to go for dinner but I'll only go to Tiong Bahru." Like how we always seem to have more than one (his) choice but we don't. Hahaha... Captain One-Choice. I'm so tickled!! My brother came up with it. It's reminiscent of the Superheroes game in Whose Line is it Anyway? don't you think. Haha so yeah, Captain One-Choice, here to bring democracy to the world...hehe. My dad's so cute. He was so proud of the Father's Day card I gave him. I think that will give me a year of favours from him till the next card comes. Heh! Already during dinner when I couldn't finish my noodles and wanted him to help me finish it, I could execute the "You got a card today hor???" so successfully.

So I'm going shopping tomorrow! It's been more than 3 weeks!!! Yes, yes, very proud of myself. I'm gonna visit my friend at Flowers- (yes! just killed the irritating mosquito!) Attic. Her last day is 1 July. :( That's so sad. I don't know whether I can go down next week coz I don't know what my timetable is like... But I guess the first week of school is always uncertain, unfamiliar, unfriendly, uncomfortable, hehehe...

Oh yes more stories about the low-tech Sarah! My friends (they're twins) in NZ have had been trying to have audio conversations with me for the longest time ever but it always didn't work out. And then yesterday, one of them decided to try again. Unwavering spirit of a guy. I told him that I didn't have a mic but he could talk and I would type. And FINALLY, I heard his voice for the first time in 3 years. He sounded so different! All grown-up and all. Haha. Oh, at first he was just talking and I was typing in reply. Then he kept saying that he could "hear me type". And I seriously DID NOT connect anything for the first few minutes. Until it finally hit me (!) and so, yeah, ok big boo-boo there. It was hilarious. He had a cool accent and there I was talking in Singlish (as if Singlish really is a language haha) and sounding ah-lian...heh. Ah, the silly things that happen to me.
