" - Urge For Going so i bought Joni's newest collection , laboriously named: "Musical Tales of Long, Cold Winters with a Hint of Short but Glorious Summers" and James Blunt's "Back to Bedlam" which i have yet to hear. ~ I just went up to Lihui and said : " Hey sunny! You're sunny ok? " Lihui says: " haha funny, is it some punny thing ? " And i say: " Oh punny is zhao and if you're asking for funny, it'll be junjie. " And i added: " I'm nunny. " Lihui says: " hahhahhahaha .... " It started when ml was asking me : " How are you? " And i went , random as usual : " I'm feeling sorta swirly wurly funny bunny. " which ml found pretty amusing. (SCORE!) And like how bananas spoil over time (ie the natural progression of events): There you have it. ZY is swirly wurly NUNNY bunny JJ is swirly wurly FUNNY bunny Zhao is swirly wurly PUNNY bunny ML is swirly wurly HUNNY bunny LH is swirly wurly SUNNY bunny HL is swirly wurly RUNNY bunny Chris is swirly wurly MONEY bunny JB is swirly wurly BUNNY bunny Louis is swirly wurly DUMMY bunny this is awfully random. ~ In the last 2 weeks, i managed to meet jj once for a minimalist ktv session, meet jb n jj for a suit-trying-on session, meet jj and lihui for an around Suntec/Raffles City session, lunch at Imperial Treasure with aunts, had macs breakfast with huili, attended LEP's 15th anniversary, recorded 4th album with paul and had a roof session , met melet and zhao fer pepper beef place and marmalade pantry, had my TSPC rehearsals and TSPC. for the next week, i have a mj session at jj's place, movie with jiabin, ktv session with e 2 of them, tentative fireworks-watching session with TS, lunch with qi and jj , sending paul off, treat from young aunt, dim sum session with campmates, lunch appt with huili, treat by 3rd aunt and more. at the same time , i need to collect my visa, get my jabs, buy stationary, prepare checklist for packing, sort out my claims , sort out my winter clothing and more. oh yea, and those proper goodbyes. precisely why i'm feeling swirly wurly n(f)unny bunny. ~ LEP's 15th anniversary sort of rocketed me back into somewhere cushioned and familiar when i sat there in my non-uniform amongst seniors and juniors. Especially when they performed this skit, a parody of all our Gu3 Wen2 (olden chinese text) and the plays and novels we studied, i had an unreserved, unpretended and mighty good laugh. And with Mu and Zzy around, how could it not end up being an unglam,loud Retro-Song session right smack in the middle of the lep room ? With Melet, XY , Zhen-mei and Fang-jie joining us. Baked a *gulp* chewy oreo cheesecake which well got snubbed at for its hideous form but complimented for its taste. Didn't turn out as well as it should have. I'll redeem my baking skills another time. 20th LEP anniversary or something. ~ Louis wants to know why he is dummy bunny. So here goes : Yep. That's why. (hurhur) ~ dele's home on 22nd. lau's home on 14th. (how will she face the harsh reality of Sun Moulin's closure? i shudder to imagine.) hamamaians planning an outing. moe scholes planning an outing. our 'one last ktv session before i go'. watson wants to meet up before we all leave. paul and i concluded that noone knows what it feels like to leave until you are the one leaving. its not cool or heartless or tear-jerking or anything quite so clear. its copper-red-hair and to-dye-my-brows-or-not mixed with i'm-not-going-to-see-you-for-one-year-after-CNY and gasps of horror. its 120 pairs of dailies (contacts) mixed with webcam and skype. its choosing which shirt to bring and travel insurance and dieting before i go. its books, modules, bolsters (to bring or not to bring?) its what-time-should-i-be-at-the-airport smses , please-don't-buy-me-anything-bulky advice and singapore students' society meetings. its everything practical and everything emotional. its packing everything you need into that luggage and into that little heart of mine. shouldn't there be something else to do besides blogging bout it?
