Counting down 9 days till my parents arrive in Melbourne. Such anticipation.
Met up with some of my secondary school friends yesterday. Surprise, surprise. They weren't the group people whom I talked to in BHS. Guess who? Toby, Aloysius, Yi Zhuang and Carolin. Such a weird combination. But anyways, we've managed to fill each other in on our lives after O level. Toby is doing commerce in ANU (Canberra), Aloysius studying biomedical in RMIT (Melbourne), Yi Zhuang's in business admin, some uni in Sydney. It's nice to have a meet up even though they are the least of all whom you expect to spend your dinner chatting with. So as I have predicted, none of them really remembered who I was except for that I was from E1 and in band. That much of my information.
Toby brought up this question. "Why didn't we speak during secondary school?" Why? I wondered. Oh yes, now then I remember that I'd always thought that they looked intimidating. Ha. Funny... I guess this reconnection some how reminded me how much I've missed. People whom you could have stayed in contact with but lost connection cos no one bothers to make the effort. That's how the social circle of many becomes smaller and smaller. So for those who complain that they have little friends, get your ass moving and start asking your long-lost friends out. You'll never know who will respond to you.
Have I been typing too much? Before I digress further, I'm here to share a few sites that my friend showed me. My word? Interesting sites.
1) Jim's pancake -> http://www.jimspancakes.com/
This dad who is so devoted to his daughter creates pancakes that form various crazy designs or things. He made a 3D ferris wheel, a bling necklace, aeroplane and many more. He did that just because his daughter refused to eat pancakes. But now, she's lovin' it. Who can resist such adorable looking pancakes?
2) World's strangest marriage -> http://oddee.com/item_97042.aspx
There's a woman married to the Berlin wall, man who married himself, woman married to Eiffel Tower. As the heading suggests "World's strangest marriage".
3) Photo bomb -> http://thisisphotobomb.com/
"Photo bomb" describes a the irrelevant things in a photo which somehow becomes the centre of attention i.e. a passerby who smiles brightly into the camera.
That's all for now. Too much effort to type out the descriptions. Lazy me.
