before the outage

well, before today comes to a close and before Blogger goes on the outage it's warning me it'll go on at the top of my posting page...

this weekend has been pretty eventful. not in a sense that i've been studying for exams or anything like that. because the only bit of studying i'm going to do this weekend holiday is after i finish typing this post. yeah, my mid years are pretty much just, screwed?

well let's start out with Friday night shall we? I managed to sneak out to meet ______, who, by the way, left me to wait at the bus stop for half an hour in the blistering heat that is Singaporean weather. pfft. then i went to the clubhouse to talk to the BV peeps till like, 1130pm. fun.

Saturday. I lazed around in the morning whilst trying to figure out how to work Grace's camera from online manuals since she didn't have one and she didn't feel like teaching me. then we went over to Michelle's place where we began the photoshoot for my artwork. man, that was extremely fun. haha especially when the stack of unwanted papers came into the picture. [think, torn and crumpled paper, covering the floor]. It was a little weird in the beginning, She IS my cousin after all. but yeah. we started out laughing our asses off and how weird the photoshoot was. and then after about an hour everything kinda loosened and the idea of the photoshoot didn't seem so looming after all. the pictures came out great. i'm still wondering what i'm gonna do with them though. but at least i have something to fill my prep work. PHEW. so it was cab ride home and then the usual saturday routine. except i was having a bit of insomnia so i ended up making IOUs for mum and dad's birthdays. haha. :X till about 4am.

then sunday was mum's birthday. as a matter of habit, i didn't wish her. went for mass with the guys[literally, only guys, wonder what happened to all the girls] and went for lunch at this hong kong restaurantat god-knows-where. i didn't really care because the food was awesome. and i ended up overeating slightly. then it was off to my aunt's house again to get the lens cover i left behind from the photoshoot and to borrow their camera for my future use since Grace obviously does not like me using her camera to begin with. pfft. Michelle and Linette surprised mum with 5 little cakes with candles. cute. there was like, new york cheese cake, tiramisu, hearty chocolate, green tea and uhm... this other cake that i don't know what the name is. it was all good, so who cares? then i challenged Darryl to tap tap revenge 2 and i obviously trashed. though the head collision was NOT fun.... so then we went home and Mum made PORK CHOP! awesome, and i got to help make the mashed potatoes! so dinner was with grace, nicky, gail, melvin and mum. and i ended up falling asleep during charlie and the chocolate factory later that night. ah well. slept early for the first time in a long time.

then today. was the most interesting day of all. i woke up, ate breakfast. and realised i needed to shit. so i did. though that's probably something you didn't need to know. heh heh. and by the time i came of the toilet, Kenneth had already arrived at the estate. so i rushed like mad to the car park rooftop for the photoshoot session. it went pretty well, except i was so anxious about the shoot itself that i forgot to check the photos after i took them, so quite a lot of them ended up being really dark. but nevermind, it could work, gives the natural dark feel to the entire thing. shrugs. oh then it started raining! and the lighting struck on the car park like, three times? i nearly became petrified each time it struck. kenneth kept laughing at me because i kept squirming whenever the lightning struck. pfft. so we decided to leave. he had a jacket so i guess he was pretty ok going back home. save for his shoes though. SORRY KENNETH! but thanks for agreeing to the shoot to begin with! oh and the highlight, smart me decided to try to go home in the rain. went to the front of the clubhouse, and started running across the road with the camera in the pouch under my shirt. and the best thing happened to me. i slip. i catch my balance. i feel funny on my foot, and then i realise. MY SLIPPER BROKE. haiz. my only slipper from Bicol and it broke. and because i was so desperate to get to shelter, i took off my slippers, and began walking home barefoot. it was fun! though i kept worrying if i was gonna fall or not. i kinda freaked out just about everyone i passed by though. they were probably wondering why this freak's barefoot and soaking. haha. got home, showered again, and uploaded photos.

before i knew it, it was time to get ready for Gail's graduation ceremony. long story short, we got dressed, left, and got to the auditorium at Ngee Ann Polytechnic. i'm amazed at how lavish they can make these ceremonies. impressive, really. Gail got a Special Award Certificate for commendable performance. congrats Gail! and after the ceremony, we laminated the certs, ate a bit of mee siam and then made our way to the JUMBO restaurant at Serangoon Garden Country Club for mum and dad's birthday dinner. my god, 7 people, 10 DISHES. not fun. i'm still feeling like i overate and it's been like, 4 hours already. urghhh.

in summary, my weekend was filled with photos, drama, FOOD and birthdays. oh and more food, oh and more food still. i think i gained back the 5 kg i lost. urghh. it's okay. it's still exam week. i starve myself more during exams. LET'S GO LOSE THAT 5 KG AGAIN.

the blogger

i'm just your typical forteen year old boy. adolescent, dealing with growing pains just as any other normal human teenager would. except what sets me apart is that i go by the name of glen and i am the supposed owner of this forsaken web page. i'm odd in the way that i have very frequent moodswings and i argue a lot with everyone - including my best friend. so i guess i'm your typical, not-so-typical guy.
i'm just who i am. metro, a SNAG and the oh-so-annoying bitch. lazy, cranky and irritable in every way. just living out my life as normal as i possibly can. with friends that can hurt me to the core and enemies that surprise me. it's no wonder i keep this blog.
