had a surprisingly good time at the bbq last night,looking at the circumstances.at my neighbour's house,two really really small bbq pits,and no guarantee of good company.
im gona tell u guys more bout my neighbours,who are a really dysfunctional lot.
okay,i live in one of those old flats where there's a lift in the centre of the block,and there's 3 staircases,2 at the sides and one in the centre.and the lift is old and creepy,like the one in the eye,cept there's no camera..ya noe wad im sayin right?
anyway,i live right at the corner,with 3 other doors and 2 underneath.the neighbours next door have a woodbridge outpatient who throws my mum's flowerpots around in the middle of the night when he gets mad.
the neighbours next to the ones above have a senile old lady who locked the main door,switched off all the lights and screamed her heart out after her husband died a week before.i think it was last year.then the family came home and they couldnt get in so they were banging on the door and everything but she was still screaming.it was scary.
the neighbours at the other end are...umm...not that morally-inclined,to say the least.both parents work looong hours and leave their sons to be dumb asses who make nuisances of themselves.i dont ever see the parents,only the smoke they leave behind cos they're both chain-smokers.
right underneath there's this family which seems perfectly normal but the KIDS...OMG THE KIDS...they are fatal.and the bbq was held there.i stayed far far away from them.there are five of them in total and they're reminiscent of gremlins,ya noe those furry critters with really sharp teeth and multiply into monsters when they get splashed with water?well...they're monsters 24/7.but they look pretty normal.shows that looks can be deceiving.very deceiving.
the last family is...actually normal.BORING.that's why i dont bother with them much.there's a guy my age and he's not even moderately cute so why bother?
oh yes,back to the bbq.stoked the fire a while..cooked some satay with the girl next door.literally.i had some company thank god.she was my pri sklmate so we talked and talked and talked.
THEN THE KIDS CAME OUT.
it was horrendous.they insisted on taking over the bbq so,to get away from them,i relented and watched in dismay while they proceeded to make charcoal out of the chicken.
the bbq would have been perfect if not for THEM.
the reason why i had alot of fun yesterday was i had a chance to chat with my neighbour,whom i hvnt contacted for a looong time,cept for the occasional hi.goodness,shows how desperate the situation between neighbours are nowadays.
reminisced on the good old pri skl days.
miss them sooo much.
i remember how i got slapped by my teacher when i was in pri 2.man,it hurt.i remember how i got to be a prefect,then a deputy head prefect,much to the chagrin of my dm.i hated him,i still do.i don think he likes me very much either but whatever,his opinion means nothing.i remember how my p6 form teacher would pick on me to answer all the maths question until i managed to get them all right.i remember how i got busted for copying science answers in the workbook cos i kept the answer booklet.
i remember how we used to play block-catching,how i almost pissed in my skirt laughing.i remember how we used to hang out at void decks watching the guys play ball,and how we almost got into a fight with this group of assholes from fuchun sec.i remember how the guys got into trouble cos they smashed this guy's window when they were playing ball.i remember when cwp seemed THE place to hang out,how orchard and bugis seemed too far away.
i remember how we used to get called after skl for some motivational speeches by the malay tchrs at the ava room.i remember how we had to split class whenever a tchr was absent.i remember how i got busted a million times for not wearing my prefect tie by the dm.
i remember when there was decent food in the canteen.
i remember how i used to not eat during recess and just sit at the flagpole with the gang.i always ended up with a lot of money and spending it on more food.i remember how i used to have the greatest tchr EVER for hml,she's the best but now she left to further her studies=(.i remember how i used to go for netball practices and get injured a lot of times.i remember when the netball team went for our first serious match and lost spectacularly.not to boast or anyth but i scored most of the goals cos i was playing GA.i remember how angry i was at the team cos i felt they weren't putting in enough effort.i remember how hurt i felt and how i totally boycotted netball for the rest of the year.
i remember how a girlfriend/boyfriend was referred to as a "stead".i remember how guys used to write letters to girls asking them to be their "stead".i thought it was stupid and i still think it now.i mean,if you wana ask a girl out,just freakin ASK.
speaking of that...my guy just called and i just brushed him off saying i was busy.truth is,i was on the phone outside and my mum was sitting right there so yeah..im so sorry cos the folks are keeping tabs on whoever's calling nowadays cos of an incident that happened..but that's another story.
hopefully i can top up my prepaid soon so i can contact him.really miss him alot.>_<
my dad had an accident.he fell from his scooter cos it skidded,somewhere along the SLE,at the sports school there.and poor guy,he had to walk the bloody scooter back with his bloody arms and knees.thk god he only had superficial wounds but they look pretty nasty.first time i saw them,my stomach just flipped cos they look really bad,gaping and red and evryth..eee..just thankful he's okay lah.X
was looking forward to a peaceful afternoon when my dad's sibling decided to pay a surprise visit.hahaha he was busted cos he was just gona go out for work.he's crazy lah,injured oready still wana work.he wasnt supposed to work anyway,doc's orders.sooo...i had to make tea and entertain the guests,being the good and useful teenage daughter i am.my mum chose today to come home really late so i was stuck chatting with my aunts while yelling at my kid cousins to keep their hands outta my drawers.they are soooo irritating.
don get me wrong,i have nothing against them,they're cute and adorable and evryth but they just cant keep their hands still lah.they ransack evryth they can find in my room and i dont think my aunts would like it if i go to their house and ransack their underwear drawers and leave evryth strewn around the room.
oh my.what a long post im writing today.going to atiqah's crib tml morn.
LIKE YAY FINALLY I AM LOCKED UP NO MORE!!!!
