You know what gets me?

Read on to find out. :D


Sometimes...I think adults came from different planets, you know? I don't get them and they just don't get me. :o( Like the time my mom was looking for a new handbag...and she KEPT picking the ugly wrinkly looking ones out from the whole bunch of bags. I'm always *cough* honest when I give my opinion, so I just told her, "Mo-om, it's HIDEOUS!"


And she'll be like, "But girl, it's in fashion now what!" -_-''


"Screw fashion," I'd always mutter, not loud enough for my mom to hear, though.
And THEN, she'll give me a look that'll say, "Aiyo, why teens now so rebellious one ar? FASHION also don't like..."


T_T That's what I get for being honest.


Guess what? Today my mom bought me a new wallet. EXACTLY like her wrinkly white bag that I detested. I was like...Gee...what am I gonna say? Go on and be nice?


"Hey mom, thanks for the new wallet. I love it SOOOOOO much." And cross my fingers behind my back and force a smile that makes me look like I'm constipated? Or just be honest as usual?


"Hey mom, I TOLD you I don't like wrinkles!! I'll look like an old grandma carrying that thing!"


Or maybe I'll just be smart and say "Thanks!" and pretend to be absorbed with what I was doing.


Anyway, ANYWAY, I'll get to the point.

VEGETABLES!!! THAT's what gets me so bad. Okok, I see your 'duhhhhh' faces already., I'll elaborate.


I was playing the piano during dinnertime while my poor veggies sat abondoned on the dining table, as usual.


Then, dear ol' mom came by, "GIRL?? Why didn't you eat your veggies??!! I KNOW you love leeks, girl, that's why I gave so much!" ...Gee, thanks a lot...


Then, "They're such BEAUTIFUL vegetables!"


I was like what???????????????!!!!!! Beautiful?? You call those pieces of oxidised slime, BEAUTIFUL??


Then she was like..."Yessss....very beautiful vegetables, that's why they're called LEEKS."


Seeing my blank face, she added "Cause their so slim and SLEEK mah..."


And then she gives me a face like..."Geddit?? Geddit?? LEEKS? SLEEK?"


-_-''


Now you understand why sometimes I think parents are actually Martians whose spaceship busted and landed on Earth by mistake.


As for the Vegetable Beauty Pageant winner of 2005?


Feast your sight and senses on poor Stephanie's dinner.

NOW you understand my distress?


......looks kinda like cockroach eggs stuck together huh?

Yay! New colour pencils! :*

Today I went stationary shopping with my mom, since I had to do this huge deepavali banner. I bought some markers and glue and of course, COLOUR PENCILS! *eyes shine*
When I was young, I used to think that nothing could make me happier than new colour pencils. But then I didn't know about the Nintendo DS , PS2, iPod Nanos and Brandon Boyd. =Þ
Anyway, look at the state of my sis's old colour pencils that I had to use for lack of anything better.

See? Lots of colours missing. :K Oh of course...*eyeball roll* I had some 'substitutes'...if they're even worthy of that title.

Some help. Anyway take look at my new babes and their spiffy new packaging. They own you.

The west coast. Prettiful summer-ish colours.

The East Coast. Dark, mysterious and infinitely awesome colours.

Now don't you want a new set for yourself? Go bug your mom. Only RM30-something per pack. Muahahahaha....

The Antidote.

Just now I went to my mom's friend's house, for hi-tea and dinner. What we had for tea was yummy...siew yok. But it wasn't exactly what you would call filling :D While my mom and her friends were engaged in talk, I sat waiting and waiting and waiting for dinner to be served. And guess what it was...SALAD!!! Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww....................


Anyway, I ate three cherry tomatoes and sat quietly until my mom friends started going 'aw, poor girl, she must be starving now....' So being smart, ;o) I took that chance. 'Mommy, I want Starbucks for dinner, can ah? ' *bat eyelid* *angelic grin* :D:D:D And yeah, my mom agreed, so I had Starbucks for dinner, or supper...it was already 10pm.


I was like YES! Since the weather was so hot and all...

...my precious Turkey Ham and Cheese Sandwich...

...the very, very important Caramel Frappucino, coffee + caramel + ice =syok!

I thought I was in glutton's heaven until I remembered...caffeine. :o

Uh-oh. No sleep tonight. And I'm so, so tired...*cry*


Shitty-poo. Grrrrrrrrrr...............
