goodbye freebies ! a sudden realisation has finally gotten processed by my malfunctioning brain. come october, it'll be freebies no more. so what better way to make the most of what i have now than to share good food and free facilities with pple i love and care abt. headed for a scrumptious buffet lunch by the pool with zesamine and made sure i maximised the full potential of going fer a buffet. made sure we each headed fer at least 3 rounds of main course dishes, side plates of bread, and enough dessert to feed 10 ant farms. so maybe i'm currently suffering the consequences of gluttony, but by next year, i'll be glad i did this.
hitting the gym has become less than a bi-weekly affair. i cant even remember the last time i made that excruciating trip up those 4 flights of stairs to go work out. and i've been rolling outta bed later than usual, so its completely pointless to head to the pool fer a tan. now that i've finally realised that i will no longer be at liberty to abuse the facilities available to me, i predict a change in lifestyle from now till october :) eating more, tanning more, and hmmm working out more. hardly makes any sense, but then again, this is for one goal and one goal alone. to cherish the luxury i have in my hands before they slip away like grains of sand.
soon, i must start integrating humidity into my life. time to start embracing creepy crawlies as a part of every day life, including my worst enemies : lizards and cockroaches. ick ! it appalls me to think i'm really much more of a spoiled brat than i thought i was. there will be no anne to change my bedsheets or vacuum up the cookie crumbs on my floor after a night of pigging out in bed. food will no longer be just a phone call away, unless its pizza or kfc delivery we're talking about. i keep thinking to myself, what the hell have i been doing all this time ? why cut costs for a place that saps so much outta my dad ? i should've been abusing all that i have since day one ! bah.
of course theres much ecstacy and excitement involved. 2 fire escapes, no neighbours and windows big enough to sneak an entire army into my room. plus, living on the 2nd story has definitely got to have its benefits :) whoever said pple get too old to be sneaking outta the hse, or sneaking pple INTO the hse ? utter nonsense. its absolutely necessary when you have parents stricter than a horde of catholic nuns. cant wait to put my 2 cents worth into the interior decoration of my room. thank god i have my own bathroom too, i dread sharing ! especially when its pigging out season (which goes on all year round), which is of course equivalent to tummy ache season as well.
i'm tired of explaining my dad's retirement to everyone, and having to look at their shocked faces when i tell them his age. its not so much annoyance, but mere fatigue. i wish i could tape record the story or put things on powerpoint everytime someone asks. yes my parents are old. no, i dont know how well i'm gonna adjust to living somewhere other than this. and no, i wont miss the chicken rice because i never liked it anyway. it has been 16 years, how easy is it gonna be ? luckily i'm excited about cooking :) and i've never hated housework, tho that's what i say now hehe. in school, i'm always the ah mah sweeping the floor, cleaning the board and throwing rubbish into the bin. i hope all that practice pays off when i finally have to do these things as a part of daily rituals to come.
i'm sure my dogs will love it :) anyways, its 4 months and counting. in the next 4 months, i'll be trying my best to blatantly abuse what i have. and what better way to do so than to share it with pple i love.
