burning bush! char siu pau!

[spinning]: alvarez- funeral for a friend

KOOL hosted a farewell party for Rini, Ruth and Sarah last night. Yeah, all three of them are leaving! Rini to the UK, Ruth to Seattle and Sarah to Melbourne. The party was fun, good food, good company. We even had a dance performance from the Powerpuff Girls. So cute! Then we got into a very competitive game of Bible Pictionary. Hahahaha. It was hilarious. The answers turned out to be really really simple, not directly related to the Bible. So most of our answers were too Chim. Especially with Rev. Johnny on our team. Which reminds me of that Pastors Gone Wild episode at Uncle Ayo's house... lol. Mum's attempt at drawing a cow ended up looking like a guinea pig with tits. This prompted Auntie Betty to shout out Nen Nen. And anything that resembled a cloud or sheep was a burning bush to me. And when at long last the answer was burning bush, i wasn't the one who guessed it. Yay me! Hahaha.

Old Friends and My Dungu Brother

[spinning]: serenity – fireflight

It's nice to be able to catch up with old friends again. Just a few days ago, I got a message on Friendster from Nads. I haven't heard from her for almost 2 years! Last I heard was that she got married and moved to Iran. Sab and I were worried for her because we're paranoid and very judgemental, I'm sad to say. Yeah, we thought she either got preggers or she was kidnapped. But that is not the case! Hurrah! She is well and very much in love with her new husband! And I'm glad she hasn't given up her dream of being a singer. Good Luck Nads!

Had coffee at Matadoe with Stephy and Yen. We've been friends since... kindy! Hahaha, and now we're in our 20s and we're still friends. I promised Steph, I'll talk about her so yeah.. Steph.. she's cool. Don't mess with her or she'll roll all over you f00. The three of us conspired to pull a prank on Anand, my brother, also alleged St. Andrew's Hottie. Hahaha. Steph called him pretending to be this chick Kathryn. And Anand actually layaned her ok.

"Kathryn" : So, I was thinking maybe we could go out for drinks this weekend or something..
Anand: Sure, but I'm not free on Saturday though. How about Sunday? I'm free on Sunday.

Mind you, that Sunday was the Sunday of my Baptism. Some brother I have! Man, that boy can pull out the charms. It's the Pirinyuang blood. So anyway, Anand asked "Kathryn" (sidenote: when told that she was 21, he was not at all bothered by the age gap) for her email so they could talk on MSN. That's when Steph spilled the beans.

Anand: Does my sister know that you called me?
Steph: I'm not at liberty to tell you.

But APPARENTLY Anand had suspected that it was a prank the whole time. Yeaaaaaah. Whatever. Hahahaha. That was both fun and very awkward. Seeing my brother put the moves on a girl is not something I would like to witness. Tch! And he's so vain these days. "I don't use hair gel coz it doesn't feel natural and it spoils my hair" Just the other day I caught him examining his thigh fat. wtf? He was like, "why does it jiggle even when I clench my muscles?". My brother... such a dungu sometimes.

Kindy Boo Boos

[spinning]: sexyback – justin timberlake

My mum's a kindy teacher in St. Andrew's and she recently brought back some of the revision assessment papers to mark. I went through some of them and laughed till my cheeks hurt. Here are some of the priceless kindy boo boos:

The next set of questions, the kids were supposed to fill in either is, are or am.

I now understand why my mother has alot more white hairs growing on her head. Hahaha. The barbie one really cracked me up because not only did the kid answer barbie, she drew a flower above the i! I mean, she actually took time to draw the flower! Lol. Poor mum!

full immersion

[spinning]: vitamin R - chevelle

I got baptized on Sunday!!!! Yay!!! Finally! It was a joyous moment. So remember people (especially Sharon) that I have two birthdays. Haha. On August 13th and September 23rd. Don't you forget it!

Still no call from Fratini's. Yeah, disappointing, I know. But even better news! Thanks to Rev. Johnny, I met the Director of Empire's Human Resources after church service. She gave me her card and I emailed her my CV a few moments ago. She told me there was an opening in Event Sales. EVENT SALES yo! Apart from being a chef, that is also what I want to do. Praise God for giving me this opportunity! I love doing event sales, it was always one of my stronger feats during restaurant practicals. I really, honest to God really WANT this job. REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY want this job.

And thanks to Ben, I met the Pastry Chef at Sheraton. Apparently, they're short on staff but aren't officially putting out the word for new hires. But he'll remind Chef Ken that I'm still around.

Yeah! It's been a pretty eventful week to say the least. Gutted that I can't afford to go to One Voice in Miri though. Maybe next time. When I have money! :( Oh! Just remembered that I haven't posted about the Youth Retreat yet!

The Youth Retreat was fun! The whole busload of us went down to St. Margaret's in Seria for the the night. It was about the Holy Spirit, meant for the youths taking the foundation class. So Ronald and I found ourselves going through stuff that we learned very recently during our foundation class. It was like revision class. Hehe. The Seria youths were very hospitable! They took good care of us! The four of us, 'older girls', Grace, Janet. Laurice and I were stuck in the non-airconditioned room, which was good because it meant that we had lots of room.

Laurice had her middle of the night craving for fried chicken which made all of us hunger for KFC's Hot and Spicy Chicken. And the horror of learning that Grace has never been to KFC led us to hunt for KFC the next day. But we didn't. Went to go eat Kolomee. Which if you ask me, is seriously overrated. Seria Kolomee is not THAT great. I mean, it's cheap. But there're nice ones here in BSB too, like at Rejoice in Kiulap and at the pork market near the Sangilos' house.

Then we walked to the beach and watched the younger ones play in the sand. Hehe. The beach was... not a very nice one. Haha. Someone found a really big clam, I think it was Emily, which Janet adopted as her pet. We were all trying to pry it open. None of us had lighters to 'cook' it open. Till we got back to the church and Ronald cooked it over the gas burner. Eventually he got it open and lo and behold! Fat, juicy clam! Which Janet left to die on the table. Hahaha. Fun meh-moh-ries.
