today's my mum's birthday!

heh yup...so cool right. i gave her a card and a photo of the two of us which she has to return to me later so that i can put it back into my photo album hahaha. my brother and his girlfriend bought her a nokia handphone and a swensens cake. so we all know who's gonna get a bigger share of the inheritance sigh.... haha no lah.

and today i woke up at like 7 to swim! aha i almost died. haven't swum since church camp in june if you remember...hehehe. i went with my dad and we did 10 laps. my arms were like lead after that. sigh...i really need to work out more. did i tell you, i went to the gym on sunday night! whee...i'm finally on the path to a healthier body! :)

yesterday i went to queensway with mingen and sigh i think i spent a bit too much. not good. oh i saw daniel ong and jean danker and after that i saw joanne peh. all my life i haven't seen any celebrities and suddenly just in one day i see three. hey sam's in taiwan now right?? happy holidays sam!! say hi to ah tao for me! ahaha.

tomorrow is my korean penpal's university entrance exam. did you read about it in the papers two days ago or something? it's serious stuff man! everyone goes to work an hour later than usual in order not to cause traffic congestion, the police are there to control the traffic, candidates who are late hitch rides in ambulances or are escorted by the police to the exam venue, planes can't take off or land during the listening tests, the military can't be noisy.... and those who set the papers have already spent dunno how many days in confinement, so have the people who printed the papers... wow.
