Terperanjat Aku

We were having dinner with MD on the second day of the trip. While pushing rice using chopsticks, he paused and asked, "So Shuying, how is your boyfriend?" 8 of us, including myself, were stopped pushing rice and looked into my direction, quietly waiting for a response. I sheepishly smiled and denied, "I'm single lah, Mr. Lim." He was like shocked to hear it. "What happened to your boyfriend?" I then again denied it. So BD manager looked bizarrely at MD, "Are you sure you have seen her boyfriend before?" Everyone started backing me up, "We all knew she is single since she joined the company."

"Noooo... I have seen her boyfriend waiting and picking her up outside the hotel." Everyone stopped pushing rice again. OUTSIDE HOTEL?! I was friggin' innocent!

"What car did he drive?" BD manager asked.

"Tsk tsk. Look at you girls, only noticed what car a guy drives. I can't remember the car though."

"Sometimes her mother still drives her to work. You sure it's a guy?"

"No, really. I could remember it was a guy in the car."

Everyone was guessing here and there and I couldn't wait to get this over, "Boss, I haven't been to a hotel with a guy, you see."

"Was it Cazz you have mistaken her with?" BD manager saved my life!

"OH! Yeah yeah yeah! She has a boyfriend. Sorry sorry, haha... I think it wasn't you then." My goodness I almost rose and danced Beyonce's Single Lady on the spot.

When we thought the drama was almost over, he raised another question, "So why don't you have a boyfriend?" And it just left me "Eh... eh... ehh..." and eventually the conversation went off when it's time for dessert. Phew!

It's time to think of a reason to tell people... like..
"No is not the time?"
"I want.. but nobody want me.. =(" LOL or...
something odd like..
"I actually have one.. except no one else can see him cause he's make believe..." whahahhaha

My brain cannot think of a nice answer lar...

or just plain... "Yeah... how come ah... I wonder sometimes. Why ah? Do you know why ah?" then can move to something else. LOL

They have nothing else to talk about. Lame opener though. HAHA and do you have to pretend hugging or leaning on your make-believe bf's shoulder? xD she very ke ai okay. I think I probably will go "HAR-HAR.. Pass! I can tell you something more interesting."

Wednesday's Frisbee Day

Image
You would not know how much Ultimate Frisbee has meant to us. Friendship, fun, and precious memories on and off the field. Robbstar suggested us to join a club. We encouraged ourselves walking to Oval 7. We took up a stomach of courage to mingle with Caucasians. We looked over our shoulders for others' amazing throw. Eventually, Nathan's ponytail and warm greeting relieved our anxiety. JJ remembered our Chinese names so well without slight confusion on ice-breaker session. Alex always initiated a talk. Kaitlin asked us to come over their table for dinner after our first game. Taylor gave me too much information about his funny family in our second or third game. Julian happily allowed us to lift his skirt. We got Brenton to talk gibberish about his lung inside his body. The next season we returned to the field, we were familiarised with most of the people already. And Nathan? He never gets tired of inviting us to any occasion and he's still our top favourite Aussie ever! Ul...

Who shall be the next on the altar

Attended my cousin sis' wedding and it was the best I've ever attended and had fun with all my family members. Guess what, we owned the dance floor and everyone was so keen to join us after us warming up the floor. Grandparents from both sides were laughing and clapping on the beat. The best part of all was, the hired singer cheekily requested "I'd play you a song before we call it a night, with one condition - YOU ALL MUST DANCEEEEEE!" And he sang and played ABBA!!!!!!! I was secretly praying for Lady Gaga's Just Dance since they played Wavin' Flag in the beginning of dinner, which was kinda awkward as Paraguay vs Spain was in the game that night itself. And that's what you do when someone tried to steal your floor as well as limelight. 6 of us - 2 were already happily married within a year. Who's next? You bet.

Snacks with identities

Image
Back in The Manors, there were some remarkable groceries which defined a tenant's individuality and distinctive tastes that would easily be identified in the kitchen cabinets and super small refrigerator. So by looking at these spectacular snacks, you will point at it and confidently say, "OMG! This is so You!" My roommate, Robbster Cabinet: Cadbury, Darell Lea, and other Australian brand chocolate bars and confectioneries; unique tinned box's biscuits purchased during Easter's Day; various 1kg cereal boxes; Fridge: Greek cheese, fruity cheese, Nude juices, Ski/Yoplait/Home brand yoghurts, lite/low fat milks, more carrots and tomatoes and chicken thighs/fillets, Sara Lee's ice-cream, some special dessert. They were more but the point here is, she is voted as the most health-conscious fellow among three of us. My housemate, Debbie Cabinet: Korean spicy/seafood/Shin/Jae-Jyung Myeon instant noodles; Instant mushroom soups; dried pasta and pasta white sauces; 3-in...
