The Snowie Files

Yaho lovelies!

Sorry I haven’t been blogging for a bit. It’s been pretty hectic. My wonderful oldest sister from England came over for a visit. I haven’t seen her for 4 years. It’s really good to see her again. She arrived on Thursday. By the time I had ended classes for the day, my parents had already picked her up and came to pick me up as well. The car was pretty full with my parents and my sisters. I was dressed like a “fashionista” according to my sister. I had a long sleeve white round neck T-shirt from Esprit and my fur jacket with my sexy hand stitched black leather shoes. (Sorry for being so shameless, actually, I'm not that sorry, tough bickies, eat that you fashion perpetrators!) It was great to see her again. She got my Dolce & Gabbana’s “The One”. It smells pretty good. I’ll be alternating between that and my signature scent Yves Saint Laurent’s “L’Homme”.

On Friday – 12/12/2008, I had classes as usual. it was chemistry which ended at 1300 hrs. I bought my sister 2 UNSW hoodie sweatshirts since she wanted them. Merry X’mas dearest sister! They had very nice signet rings there. Looks similar to the family’s coat of arms. Anyways, we had family friends from Singapore coming over to stay for a bit. The dad was actually from Civil Defence as well (that was where I was posted to for National Service). He was head of 4th Division’s Public Affairs Branch (P.A.B.). I was sent to 1st Division’s P.A.B. which was alot better since their’s was located in some secluded region of Singapore. Mine was the closest to town. Orchard Road and all the fun places came under our jurisdiction. Anyways, they were here on Friday. They had 3 kids – Grace, Joy and John. They were all still kids but seemed quite old for their age. I remember Grace and Joy from when I was younger. I used to take care of them. It was really fun. The two of them have blossomed from feisty little munchkins to genteel young girls. John on the other hand was quite an overtly energetic, outspoken brat. He was “bugging” me in my room (I tried to escape to my room but he barged in) but I had my geisha smile on to hide my exasperation. And after a while he said I was very gay. I was shocked that this little kid knew what gay meant but it was the PG version of it. According to him, gays are boys that dress like girls. I had my ear stud on that time. It took all my patience to keep a smile on and continue to be somewhat “sociable”. After a while, he said I turned my head like a girl. I was like… what the !@#$… (in my head, I didn’t say it out loud)

“How does a guy turn his head then?” I asked.

He replied “They don’t turn their head that fast.”

I tried to turn my head very slowly now. In my head I envisaged myself as one of those psychotic serial killers.

“Without a smile” he added.

My mask just dissolved and I gave him one of my toned down death stares. That managed to shut him up for a bit. But OMG, I was almost ready to slice open the little imp with a butter knife and sacrifice his entrails to the gods of old.

He went to my sister’s room and announced that I was “very gay” to them. I could hear my sisters cracking up in the other room and Grace and Joy telling John off for being so rude.

On Saturday – 13/12/2008, I went to to church for a short meeting and then to the city to meet up with Klement and Derrick. They were going to get their hair cut at this Korean hair salon. I sat on the sofa facing the shopfront so I could see the people walking past. There were sooooo many hotties out today. I mean, WOW! Met up with Jeff and the 4 of us went to Din Tai Fung at World Square for lunch. I love that place!

Love the Deco!

The lights were swaying in the pseudo wind

More bowls on the wall!

Sauce bowls now :O

  Now to the soup spoons!

Close up of the soup spoons

The wind outside was pretty strong. I felt like I was going to be blown away.

We went around the city after lunch. Derrick wanted to buy some perfume so we went to David Jones and Myers to go have a sniff at the good ones. I recommended quite a few good ones to him. He ended up buying the Hugo Boss #6 Limited Edition and Giorgio Armani Code. All 4 of us were thoroughly doused with a plethora of perfume by the time we were done. I did most of the spraying on people. There are usually exhibitions and buskers at the broad walk outside Myers. I managed to take a picture of some dude painting a pretty nice picture.

It looks really good!

I came home after that. I was pretty tired but I managed to do some camwhoring during lunch and when I got home.

 It was hot but windy today.

 

John was a quite a terror. He traumatised poor Snowie really badly. He used my Dad’s remote control Sherman Tank to chase Snowie around the house. Usually when Dad does it, Snowie barks his furry little head off but this time Snowie was absolutely silent. He just sat in between Mum’s feet with his tail in between his legs. I could tell he was absolutely terrified. After a while the parents told him off. He proceeded to come bug me with the tank instead. I was trying to work on my assignment. Gosh, I’m somewhat happy I won’t be able to have kids.

On Sunday – 14/12/2008, we went to church as usual. Came back home and we had a barbecue. It was really warm outside. Our guests would be leaving today. We had a pretty good lunch and wonderful dessert to wrap up lunch. There was a long chat session while the girls went to take a nap. John took a “pretend” nap. He was back within 5 mins. After much begging and annoying his Dad, John was allowed to take Snowie for a walk around the neighbourhood. My Dad went with John since he was the official “dog walker”. That was the only reason why John’s dad allowed him to go anyways. They left for their hotel at 1730 hrs and at 1845, I had to go for the evening service with Dad and Mum because we were going to pick up Angeline after that. She’s a friend from Uni that had to find a temporary place to put up till February when her new place will be done. If she didn’t come stay with us, she’d be sharing a room with 5 other people – 3 guys and 2 girls. It worked out pretty well also as we’d be going away to the Gold Coast next week and couldn’t find anyone to take care of Snowie.

Snowie was absolutely wasted from John the Terrible. He was under my sister’s duvet. He didn’t bother moving at all. Poor Snowie! Perfect opportunity to photograph Snowie! >=)

Sleepy Snow

 No energy to escape the evil wraps of the duvet!

He didn’t even bother licking me when I tried to kiss him! :( Where’s the loovveeee gone!?!?

Usually when I attempt to kiss him, he’d try to eat/lick my lips. This time he just laid there doing nothing.

Sorry for the rather long post, now we come to the last section…

Monday – 15/12/2008

Had to get up early because Priscilla (my oldest sister) had to go to the Department of Immigration to get her Australian PR status back. It wasn’t possible to get it done on the spot because she didn’t fulfil the requirement which is to be in Australia for 2 years out of the past 5 years. She did get some forms to fill in and the lady that served us was really helpful. She tried her best to provide us with all the information we’d need, etc. So we were done by 0930 hrs. We walked from Railway Square towards the central city. First stop was Starbucks for a nice pick-me-up drink. We continued walking towards QVB and The Galleries Victoria.

The Queen Victoria Building (QVB) and some bald dude

We fluttered from store to store till 1130 hrs when I had an appointment at Stairway to Beauty at Skygardens. The girls went to get their nails done. We were finished by 1245 hrs and went to do more shopping. We headed for David Jones. Pris wanted to go look at the Giorgio Armani makeup so I brought her to the woman’s section. After a while of looking around their range of makeup, there was a really fair lady that took a seat in front of the makeup mirror and was attended to by this makeup artist with a heavy French accent. She looked really familiar and I couldn’t help but stare for a bit. She smiled slightly at me as I tried to recall where I remembered seeing her. It suddenly hit me like a brick wall. That was Miranda Otto! She was the actress that played Eowyn from Lord of the Rings and one of the characters from Cashmere Mafia. OMG OMG OMG!~! Celebrity alert!! Of course I didn’t go hound her but I tried to steal glances at her whenever I could. Oh and there were hot guys there too, sadly, shopping with their girlfriends. Pris ended up buying a really good concealer and lipstick. We met up with Angeline and went for lunch at Sky Phoenix. We had yum cha there. It was pretty cheap for the 4 of us. I burnt the top of my mouth from a searing hot siew mai. It’s not good to “fi di” when you’re eating dim sums straight out of the steamer. It was pretty bad. Almost cried from it. Anyways, we walked around a bit more and then went to SDS. The girls were shopping for swim wear and havainas while I just looked around for hot guys. The guys in there weren’t really my type. We caught the bus home after that. I fell asleep on the bus. Quite tired today. When I got home I had to finish up my essay which is due tomorrow. Total gheyness…

My phone always makes me yellow :(

Hmmm why am I yellow from the phone?

Speechless… Miranda Otto had really clear fair skin!

Anyways, that’s all for today. Sorry for making the post so long. Please remind me to update my blog regularly so I don’t have to torture myself with such a long post :)

Lurbs yew long time,

Jo(n)
