shitty christmas and presents

christmas is officially over now since its 12.40am at the time i blog; im sick but i absolutely insist on performing the greatest favourite pastime of all singaporeans: COMPLAIN. i really must get this out of my system else im be in a seriously bad mood for days to come, and if i dont complain now, i'll nvr get the chance to do so cuz im occupied with some stuff and might forget etc.ok first of all thank you xiaojun for your present. its really lovely! but i forgot to sms you abt it so i thought i should thank you here then. she bought me an ayumi hamasaki lastest album which i quite liked, but wouldnt buy it cause i didnt want to spend money on. so surprising when i opened the present=) anyway i feel so bad just giving you cookies leh-.-... so xiaojun, VIOLA, im gonna buy you another one specially for you as a BIG thank you!!!!=)
secondly to all who wished me merry christmas. merry christmas to you too! sorry that i didnt reply cause almost everyone messaged me in the dead of the night when i wanted to sleep and at that time i was already starting to get sick.
thirdly i made cookies for the two gatherings i was invited to, but i could only attend one and since i wanted to be with my boyfriend for christmas so i didnt go to wei xia's. sorry but i hope everyone liked the cookies enough. even if you dont, i love them myself especially the butter ones so it doesnt matter really.
fourth, thanks to melissa and wei xia for inviting me to your christmas celebrations, although they clashed.
thank yous done, now to business. honestly this was one of the shittest christmas i ever had. now i know why i love to be an introvert when i was in primary and secondary school. it pays to be an introvert on christmas especially when you have to attend gatherings with your friends. for aspiring young people out there, i advise you to become an introvert during christmas, and dont say i didnt warn you.
firstly. on the eve of christmas, i woke up with an everlasting flu that is still pestering me now as i type and i used up an entire box of tissues by 4pm. and when i finally got home and checked the mirror the left side of my nose is peeling from the repeated rubbing with the tissues. my parents sent me and kev to mel's house(not my class melissa) to celebrate christmas and stayed overnight. i thought i would be last but hey presto someone else decided to be even later so we waited for her and finished up most of the cookies me and kev made. lucky everyone liked the cookies itself not because they were hungry. anyway after she arrived, dinner started and i liked the salad; it looks really nice. it really felt like a christmas dinner; thanks alot melissa!
nightime we watched rob-b-hood which was funny. after the movie i was pooped but i stayed up to eat the cake. then i was REALLY pooped and i think i got a mild fever around there because i only had a little sweater that covered me at the top but not the bottom. anyway the fever was rather on and off but i looked so dead the next morning bah. later the exchange of presents came.
BAH. for the exchange, i gave one of the huge meiji chocolate as my present. and imagine who got it? JIE SHENG. LOL. quite unexpected really, after all the girls wanted it so much when i revealed my present to them. for my present wise, i dont really care much about what i get, but when i saw it i was like: .......... cause what i got was a squiggly doll that in my opinion should be cheap, didnt look decent and only remotely 30% of furby. ok i mentioned i didnt care about what i get, but when i looked at the present, it only goes to show how insincere people can get. although i learned that the person didnt have the time to buy a good present, but honestly, at least get a decent one! you dont have to know a person's tastes to buy a gift that is suitable for any occasion. i can list tons, like chocolates, photo frames, mugs and such. although these have been said to be too common and boring, but they are undeniably decent ones to give. if you cant bear to spend the money and use brain juice in the first place, might as well dont buy. anyway since its what im getting, im going to be civil and at least say a nice thank you. but it doesnt really improve my opinion of a person.
after lunch supposed to go to kev's house and rot away christmas. who knew that he wanted to cut his hair before prom came, so it came down to jie sheng, me, kev and joel standing in front of a saloon recommended to be cheap and ok. turns out the guy didnt come for work today, so we walked a few more and ended up patronising evolution hub. and thats when i really flared up i tell you. it was damn fucking slow. a simple haircut for ten bucks asks people to wait for, say more than 20 mins? me and joel were sitting on the stools outside waiting for the two of them, cuz we didnt want to cut. i was going what the hell are the taking so long and was super irritated. i walked into the saloon to find that like, WOW they decided to dye their hair?!
firstly. i was very shocked. cause i thought that for kev to dye his hair is a little out of his personality, cause he doesnt spend his money like he doesnt give a hoot about it. but what am i supposed to say? im just assuming he wants to look nice for the prom, so i understand. who doesnt? anyway its his hair, he can do whatever he wants with it and im not going to interfere with his stuff. im not a stupid control addict. for all i may or may not like it, i will always stand by his decision.
secondly. i was DAMN FUCKING PISSED OFF. you know why? dying hair in a saloon is not like your express DIY highlighting of hair. its a LONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGG process cause i sat down with my sister many times when i was young watching her get her hair dyed. here we were(me and joel), sitting outside and i was innocently thinking that they just wanted to get a simple hair cut. but NOOOOOOO i was so fucking wrong and they decided to dye their hair and didnt even bother to tell us. do you know how fucking irresponsible it is? firstly, kevin has his handphone with him and could have just sent a simple sms to us sitting outside that they decided to dye their hair so i wouldnt be a complete idiot sitting outside. to make things worse, the weather grew cold cuz its gonna rain and i was getting sicker and sicker, i dont know if jie sheng knows if im sick, but kev sure did and there they were taking their own sweet time WITHOUT TELLING ME!!! you think i like that!? i really wanted to scream at both of them.
fuck the stupid workers at the saloon at asking them to go dye their hair. fucking money grabbers. i'll never have anything to do with that saloon again. not that i ever had before that. i just stood there and was really flaring up inside so i just gave that disgusted/pissed off look at every worker in my line of view. honestly what i wanted was to scream what i was feeling right then into both of their faces, dump his bag and just walk off. want to call me a bitch at this point? you know what, YEAH I FEEL THAT WAY THATS WHY I WANT TO. THATS BECAUSE I HAVE A VERY VALID REASON TO BE A BITCH. so just fuck off. i hate christmas this year.
