life is so tiring... nah, dun worry, i'm not actually sounding so negatively... as always, juz trying to complain and whine abt life... but there's nothing much i can do abt it... gotta bite my teeth harder i guess... spent the whole day out today... another saturday gone juz like this, in a flash... the most funny thing is that, i slept so much this morning, although waking up intermittenly, till like abt 10+am, i'm easily tired by nite fall... cant believe it... i guess i'm really working my body hard, but too bad it aint training or wad... i'm juz pushing my body near the limits by studying... wad a pity, wad a way to push my body... kinda silly too i think... went out in the afternoon to watch 'house of flying daggers'. not too gd a show i muz comment... if not for takashi kaneshiro, andy lau and zhang ziyi, nobody will go watch the show i'm sure... not too nice a story line, but the cinematics were not bad la... and abit too much "sex" scenes? okay, not really sex, but juz too much passionate scenes... not very related to the story also... juz helps in making the movie longer... depriving pple of their bursting bladders? evil... mean... went over to my grandparents' place in the evening till nite... luckily, i brought my survey questions along... gd chance to survey them, since i'm touching on dialects in singapore... gd pple to ask... well, funny incidents along the way when i asked the questions... it was kinda hard to ask them questions, especially when they understood better in dialects, but luckily, my aunt was there... so she could help me... it was quite smooth-sailing for my grandma... but for my grandpa, whom understood mandarin less better than my grandma, i had to try my best to ask in hokkien, wif the help of my aunt... but my aunt, knowing that my grandpa couldnt understand much of mandarin, decided to juz keep quiet, and see how i speak my version of "hokkien"... well, finishing my sentence of question, my grandpa juz gave the 'huh?' face, but trying his best to give an answer becoz i guess he din want to make me feel bad or something... but his face easily gave away the thing that i spoke like shit... and wif my version of "hokkien", i juz made my grandma and my aunt laughed like mad... gosh... i feel so... clowny? haha... =) luckily, my aunt came to my rescue, after hearing enough of my clowny hokkien... the other funny thing that happened... was that i asked my grandpa for his age... 'how old r u?'(ni2 ji3 shui4). guess how my grandpa answered? 'still early, not sleeping(shui4) yet! omigosh, hearing that hilarious answer frm him, practically made me and my aunt laughed like mad la!! i'll neva forget this thing... i'll always think back and make myself laugh, especially when i feel down... haiyo, i love my ah-gong! he's so cute! my ah-ma also, she's so cute too! i miss them... they made my day today... i luv them! i'll remember the joke!
