i had a big realisation this morning when i saw a dead cockroach lying on my bathroom floor-i forgot to blog about my encounter with a 'xiao qiang' in east timor!

in case you are wondering what on earth is a 'xiao qiang', let me explain to you. it's basically a term we give to cockroaches. i believe it originated from a hongkong drama serial where this man kept a pet cockroach and named it 'xiao qiang'. yes..it's a little crazy of him to own such a pet i know. haha..

anyway, right on the first night at the Backpackers', we saw a cockroach crawling about in a frenzy as it keeps trying to escape from our view and hiding under our luggages. we four girls kept screaming of course. however, we had to do something about this. finally, shermin and i decided to face the horrible little creature together. holding a stack of white paper in my hands, i pushed away the luggages and there that small thing came running out!! i smacked the pieces of paper on it without further ado and kept smacking till i made sure it didnt move. then shermin stepped and jumped on the dead cockroach hidden beneath the papers.

have a look at the poor thing. the victim of my first attempt at killing a cockroach. ( bleah, call me a sadist.)

this morning, yeunsee and auntie mee eng came to my house to visit adele. they missed the one month celebration as they caught chicken pox then. so they stayed for a while, had a chitchat and everything. they brought delicious cheese prata and mushroom prata too! THANKS YEUN. =)) well, after eating lunch, i got ready to meet the youths at JEC.

gosh, i thought i was going to be late?! but it turns out that they met at 1pm so as to prevent pple coming later than 2pm. haha.. good idea right? anyway, i bought my hair wax before meeting up with them. yea, i guess some of them were rather shocked at my haircut. some had prior notice already so yes. haha.. so now i've joined the short-haired girls group, as lydia lee calls it. haha.. im glad this hairstyle suits me and didnt turn out badly.

we headed to Fuji Ice Palace. it was my first time actually going to ice-skate. i've lived in the west area for almost a decade and i've never been ice-skating! haha... well, isabel was my teacher today. i think she's very patient with me lar.. judging from how i kept screaming and holding on to her. THANK YOU ISABEL. well, initially, it was difficult to get the momentum and balance as you're moving. as much as she kept telling me how to glide and not walk, my feet still kept going backwards. haha.. and i just couldnt lean forward all the time. but after going a few rounds with her help, i managed to skate on my own.. slowly of course.

i fell down thrice. i remember the first time was thanks to JJ as he came to push isabel and i while i was still learning how to skate. then another time was somehow isabel and i bumped into each other and we both fell. the last time was when nat tried to drag me to speed-skate and i couldnt handle fast speeds yet and so i fell. haha.. hilarious time we had.

actually, i think it's so much easier to skate alone. i cant skate with pple quickly. somehow ive got this fear of knocking into pple or else im scared my skates will get tangled with whoever im skating with lar. haha.. i need to go ice skating again to learn how to skate faster and learn how to siam pple.. haha..

i enjoyed this FIRST TIME..very much. =)
