so i have to sit for an entrance exam to get into alice smith :( :( they re springing a bio and math o levels exam for me on tuesday. arghghgh the injustice of it all!! am SO not in the mood for poring over my textbooks again.

and what s worse, the head of economics wants to have a 'chat' with me. presumably to gauge how much i actually know about the subject. read: NIL. i know zilch about economics for goodness' sake. stock markets? bonds? what if he asks me about the marginalist economic theory or something like that?!?!

ergh. i am so dead.

in other news, i paid my first visit to the gardens and pavilion the other day in the hunt for the ever elusive Prom Dress (found it, bought it, own it!!! <3 <3 muahaha) both are pretty posh hotspots, i must say, especially the latter. pav is HUGE, migosh. walking from one end of the building to the other must be equivalent to an hours' worth of treadmilling at least.

was sorely tempted to buy a jco. donut, but the massive waiting line quelled my tastebuds. seriously. queues that long belong in disneyland. :/ if anyone happens to be swinging by, though, i want a boxful of the scrummy peanut butter ones :D buying one or two just doesn t cut it lah. especially after the long wait. twas mostly the working crowd lining up to get their sugary fix, and they all came away staggering under the weight of 3-4 boxes each. each!!

mum dug the christmas tree out of the storeroom yesterday. it s currently in the corner of the living room. very green, very plastic and very naked. evidently she expects me to start work on decorating it.

if you think this is some sort of aww-inducing cutesy tradition, you re sorely mistaken. i mean, yeah, it s fun in the beginning, but the novelty sorta wears off after you ve hung what feels like the hundredth silver bell/angel/pudgy miniature father christmas.

still. better me than su ann i suppose. the last time we left her to do it, the tree ended up looking like something out of a tim burton film. 

something my little sis was tinkering on while i was slogging away during spm:

im not sure what s holding the duck/chicken/duchen up. but it s a pretty good effort overall i reckon :P the makings of another freddie linsky, perhaps?

p.s. eh i wanna go watch the golden compass! it looks like good stuff okay. nicole kidman And daniel craig. and talking bears! :D who wants to teman me!
