I just realised rather recently that there are a few things i say to people about myself, certain idiosyncrasies that make other people look at me like i'm a weirdo. I'm so not weird. Really.

1. I like Kame

2. I eat potato chips with chopsticks

3. White is my least favourite colour. I don't tend to eat white coloured food (it looks bland and looks like hospital food) and i don't tend to buy white coloured stuff (not a single pair of white shoes or a white bag and HARDLY any white clothing. White stuff remind me of nurses and hospitals.)

4. I don't eat ANYTHING pink. I like pink stuff but i cannot bring myself to eat anything pink. Looks way too coloured it looks scary.

5. I cannot eat steaming hot food. Have to wait for it to cool to room temperature when there is no more steam before putting it in my mouth.

6. I'd choose noodles over rice almost any day. Everyone says it's totally not asian of me but what can i say? I just don't!

7. I love seafood like prawns, crabs and their friends but if i wouldn't eat them in public because it's too gross and messy the way i eat them. Plus they don't taste nice when you eat them at a restaurant.

8. I LOVE salmon sashimi but i will NOT eat salmon cooked.

9. I don't like it when the food on my plate touch each other. The veggies don't touch the fish and fish don't touch the meat and gravy should never be mixed.

10. At fast food places (in singapore) i only have chili sauce if it's from macdonalds.

11. I cannot remember the last time i wore a skirt voluntarily.

12. I don't ACTUALLY sleep till 7am in the morning. I go to bed and i wake up every half an hour till about 7 or 7.30 then i sleep like a baby.

13. When i was home in singapore, i'd go to touch up my roots every 3 or 4 weeks because i cannot stand the sight of the black roots.

14. I always have make up on, but i never carry make up in my bag.

15. I play an awesome game of tennis (the last time i played) but i CANNOT serve for nuts.

16. My mummy asked me if i wanted to go for cosmetic surgery for double eye lids.

17. I like checks and i like guys to wear checks. It makes them look very honest.

18. I cannot be with a guy who has ugly hands.

19. I do not like the british accent.

20. I have no impending desire to travel. I will go if there are opportunities but it's not something high on my life list.

I'm sure there are more, but these are the ones i can think of at this moment. I'm sure ling and nat and jac and beng will have heaps more to add to the list. But i don't see how these are weird. Other people feel the same way. They really do look at me funny when these things are mentioned.

You know, the other day, i suddenly REALLY missed my mummy. I mean i miss her all the time, every day but the other day, it was a day i REALLY wished she was physically there for me. She'd scream at me for wasting my day and being lazy and not doing my work and for watching too much tv. But then she'd be THERE. Often i wonder if my mummy knew how i was doing. How much i hate uni. Mostly i'm doing it for her, this OT thing. If i could muster up any sense of motivation, it'd be because of her. I wonder if she's disappointed in me. Disappointed in the choices i have made. It's so hard sometimes you know. To miss someone and not be able to call. It sucks. I WANT MY MUMMY.

After this week. I will have 5 more weeks of uni left before exams. That's 25 days of uni and about 3 million assignments before exams. Then........ HOME!!!! Yay!!! Can't wait can't wait!!!!

The DVD series of the moment for me is The L Word. It is not politically very correct and it is probably not morallistically acceptable to most of the conventional population. But i like it. I think it's sweet. It's about a group of lesbian friends who are in search of love and acceptance. It's kinda like Sex and the City but no where near as glamorous. The L Word is very frienship/relationship centred and i love that. Because no matter what your sexuality is, friendships and relationships are what defines you and this show really shows it. I like it also because it's not complicated by men. It's just women and their feelings. It's magnified in the show and as much as straight people say they cannot identify with the gay population. The only real difference is sexuality. People are people. Labels don't matter. Though i have to say honestly that i'm much more tolerant to watching 2 girls making out than 2 guys. Not that i'm promoting homosexuality, but it is definitely worth a watch. I reccomend it for the open-minded.

So. In the show, this chick Katherine Moennig plays Shane. If you've seen Sex and the City, Shane is like Samantha. Sex with no strings attached. Shane is the dyke that everyone wants because she's so hot and unobtainable and emotionally unavailable (the "man" of the lot). Leenie and I are so smitten by her. She is soooooooo enigmatic in the show it's unbelievable hot. Can't really describe it properly. Have to see it to get it. She's straight in real life but she pulls off the role so well. She's got such a pretty face! I don't know i don't know. There's just SOMETHING about her.
The girl on the left is this hot latina chick that plays Shane's girlfriend in the show. She's the one that manages to get Shane to commit to a relationship. But of course they have their problems cause Shane's a player and their BOTH so hot and every other girl wants to get into their pants. But Shane loves her so much and Shane ends up proposing to Carmen. Carmen wasn't sure because well, Shane is the most unobtainable person on the planet. Eventually, Carmen says yes and then, Shane leaves Carmen at the alter because Shane caught her dad cheating on his wife and she realises that she doesn't have the confidence to stay loyal to Carmen. It was heart breaking. I really really really felt so sad. They loved each other so so so much.
