1. I think some people are well aware that I took ballet lessons for a year when I was young. What they didnt know was the reason why I quit ballet. I was so annoyed with my mummy for asking me to demostrate what I learnt in class every week that I decided to quit instead.




2. This happened when I was either in my nursery or kindergarten. Anyway, one fine day, I came home from school and told my mummy that I learnt a new word! "Rem-bu-ten!" Of course mummy tried to correct me by telling me that it was "Rambutan", but I continued insisting that my teacher taught me it was Rembutan instead, and became so pissed that I cried non-stop.




3. In my graduation performance from my kindergarten, YMCA, i was supposed to be a... DUSTBIN. Hello, so demoralising can. Thank god my role was changed in the end. Kindergarten teachers should have more sense and never include dustbins or other demoralising roles in the performances. It ruins self-esteem.




4. Babies traditionally posess a small bean-bag, usually made by grandma and supposedly helps babies to sleep better. Sometimes it's known as "dou-dou". I'm sure you know what I'm refering to. 17 and a half years later, I'm still sleeping with mine. =D




5. When I was 9, I watched the movie, Billy Elliot, in the cinema with my mummy and my sister and we had the entire cinema to ourselves. I came home, got pissed with my sister, and drew inspiration from the movie and yelled at her "LATER I FART IN YOUR MOUTH". My dear mummy heard it as "later i FUCK in your mouth". I think there's no need to elaborate much on what happened next.




6. When I was young, my sister used to call me "stupid" ALL the time. I was so determined to prove her wrong that my biggest aim was to beat my sister in academics. Being 3 years older than me, obviously I could only compare results for national exams. I was sooooo damm happy that my PSLE score of 248 beat hers of 242, and my Olvl l1r5 of 12 was much, much better than her 23. It worked. She has stopped calling me stupid. I WON. ha.




7. I'm a murderer. I killed my hamster. BY ACCIDENT OK. And I was really young at that time. Haha. My hamster was inside its pink hamster ball rolling around my balcony. Then it started raining and I forgot to bring my hamster in. So when the rain stopped, I peak in and saw that my hamster was wet and drenched. I decided to dry it so I aimed my hairdryer at my hamster whilst it was in the ball. It died.




8. When I was in kindergarten, we had to attend those computer lessons at the YMCA HQ. Everytime we went, we'll have to wear a plastic nametag. One day, I went to take my denim jacket before leaving, and I accidently knocked into the Principal's son, who was younger than me, and running around. The impact cracked my nametag into 2. The principal scolded me for "running" into her precious son and punished me for my cracked nametag. I didnt tell my mummy, but I picked up the art of glaring by directing one at the principal. My principal further punished me for that glare. HAHA.




9. I once threw away someone's pencil sharpener on purpose when she wasnt around in primary school because I hated her so much. I never told her whatever happened to her sharpener.




10. I was a slow learner when I was young. I didnt speak till I was almost 2, and didnt walk till slightly after 2. Now my mummy wishes that I would just shut up and sit down.




11. I hate coming home ever since Primary 3 when I officially became a latchkey kid. I would loiter at the bubbletea shop located at the void deck of my old house with my friends till it was kind of late and then I would go home reluctantly. The routine changed when I went on to study at Anderson and it was impossible for me to go back there anymore. These days, I come home and switch on the television and my laptop's music almost immediately. I would even sleep in the living room with the television switched on.




12. I detest running. I started running in primary school because my sister mock me and constantly showing off her trophies in my face. So i got pissed and started running and collecting medals for my relays to match her trophies for her individual events. These days, I cant be bothered with her anymore.




13. As a young girl, I played with Barbie dolls. Everytime me or my sister accidently snap the head off, we will scream like hell and throw it out of the door and slam the door shut and continue screaming till someone fix back the head for us.




14. Once after a really bad quarrel with my sister at my Yishun house, I picked up the phone, took the room key and ran into the spare room and locked myself in. I phoned my mummy at work from that santuary that I created for myself , crying so hard I got dizzy and a bad headache, especially when my mummy scolded me instead of comforting me. I refused to leave the room and they had to call a locksmith to open the door. I think I was about 6 when that happened.




15. I started using the computer when I was 3. At that time, computers worked on MS DOS system, the CPUs were horizontal, five and a half inches floppy disk were mainstream and dot-matrix printers were used.




16. When I just transferred to YMCA from Glory Joy, we went on an excursion to the zoo. We were walking pass the playground when my teacher smelled something smelly and asked if any of us had passed motion. Being new in school, I didnt admit my guilt. When we reached back school, I bend down to take off my shoes and my teacher saw that I had stained my school skirt. I was so sad that day because I ruined my favourite pair of undies. HAHAHA.




17. When I became the head prefect in primary school, I hid that fact from my mummy for an entire year, until she chanced upon my badge which I accidently left in the toilet. I have no idea why I did that, but I gave it some thought over the years and came up with the plausible explaination. I think I wasnt sure that my mummy would accept me for who I was, and would have probably doubt my words and think that I lied to her. I guess I wasnt brave enough to face the truth.







New experienced today! I was at the Cold Storage, Takashimaya, buying sushi when a commotion broke out and I saw people chasing each other. Apparently they caught this Indian guy stealing Volka. When he was caught he was shirt-less and shoe-less. No idea why when I saw him with both on when he was running away. Haha.






Today was SUPPOSED to be a great day. Until she spoilt it all. So fuck. I wished she would stop yelling at me in public and humilating me. Life was so much more better when she was stuck in her dancing program and wasnt around. Sometimes I want to be mean and just wished that I didnt have her for my sister. URGH.
