Leap year birthday! :)

Okay I'm going to blog about Renee's birthday. Her birthday falls on the 29th of Feb, so she's officially SIX this year. She says by the time she's ten, she'll be super old. Ha. It's an ugly sweather theme, and I refuse to pay even a buck for anything ugly. So I lamely put some red ribbons from my gray sweater from Urban Outfitters (which after, I thot was pretty ugly), and walked right in.

Unfortunately, for ALL that effort, Renee failed me instantly the moment she set eyes on me. And she promptly handed me a hideous sweater (Renee: I KNEW you weren't gonna come in anything ugly! I got you this!). She threatened that if I don't put it on, I'll have to paste mirror image pictures of Guang on my boobs.
Exhibit A:

So it turns out that they printed out helluva lot of pictures of Guang in a suit with a smirk on his face, and whoever comes in anything cute will have to slap his pictures on their boobs or crotch. Classy. Best thing is, Guang doesn't know what's going on, until he walked in. Ha.

He gamely put one on his crotch too, and yelling across the room "Who's DA man!" Ha.

And the guys started improvising and cutting his silhouette out and putting it on their crotch so Guang's head looks like a dick. As I said, classy!

And another guy put him on his shoulder, and keep pretending to talk to mini Guang the whole night and force-feeding him cheese.

And when everyone was fueled up by wine, Louis put salami in mini Guang's mouth and made Guang eat it up. I swear to God, so many flashlights going off and video recorders. Wonder where all the videos went... Ha.


They made a boob cake for Renee! It's huge! (Can we really expect anything less from Renee though? :P) AND a penis cake too. Yum. Ha.

The girls in da house and me. I think we put in the most effort (or rather they did, but hey, my sweater was butt ugly), maaan, do we look ugly. Ha. Maybe I'll delete the pictures soon. Ha.

Or and randomly, just got my bday pictures from John. I like this picture! Cuz it captures my happiness that day... Wee! :)

Senile dementia at age 25?


Okay. This is it. I think I'm suffering from senile dementia. I don't know what it is these days, but my mind is in a gazillion places at one time that I keep forgetting stuff. I have a theory. Since my mind is on work and class and a few other places constantly, I do a lot of things out of reflex. Things like locking my car, packing up stuff, some lab procedures etc. I don't really think about these things when I do them like I used to. As a result, I successfully forgot to pack my power cord in my computer bag three days ago, and just yesterday, I thought I had my notes in my hand when I was off to the gym (I like to read the notes now as I go on the elliptical, it's sooo productive), but realized that they were NOT when I got to the gym. -__- Or going back to the car a million times wondering if I'd locked it. I don't know what's happening to me! I think cuz I'm pressed for time these days, I started multi-tasking on an insane level. I can't just do one thing at a certain time. I read my papers when I'm blow-drying my hair (cuz I can't hear but I can still read), I listen and learn songs when I'm doing stuff on the computer, I think about my exam questions when I'm driving. And that I read my notes on the elliptical too. I don't know how long I can keep this up people. Please God, fast forward time so that I can be done with my finals and lab meeting and be on that bloody plane to London!

Also, a disclaimer. I admit I might be a little vain at times, but I'm not conceited enough to go frame my face on a warhol painting like that. This was a birthday present from Moots, and I have to admit, I really do like it! I just have to do this disclaimer everytime people see it on the wall...... well a good reminder of my youth (while I still have it). Maybe someday when I'm 60 and sitting in my rocking chair by the fireplace, with no teeth, I'll appreciate it a lot more. :P Just can't believe the price tag though.

Okay have to blog about Renee's party another time. No time! Anyways, the ugly sweater was horrendous, so no matter. :P

Sorry people!

Okay sorry people, I know I've been nothing short of lame about blogging, but I've been working my arse off at lab, and in class, or at the gym. I promise to blog soon though, cuz I have to blog about Renee's ugly sweater party and some food places. Will blog soon! I'm just sooo busy right now. Sigh. :(

London next month!

Facebook is not loading. Drats. These days, I find myself in a new obsession over FB. Ha. It started off with Sam marrying his v.good friend Nicholas, then me marrying Renee (ho!) and Nicole marrying Wenqi. Geez, what is this world turning into. Ha. Anyways, Renee says she's a commitment phobe, and told me not to hold too much hope in maintaining this marriage. That's okay, cuz Nicole says she'll marry me next. Haha! :P

I'm heading over to London end of next month! Gonna go with Jenn (we need a getaway, I think she needs it more than I do) and I'm gonna visit Ariane! Lier's gonna come down for the weekend from Edinburgh, so it'll be like old times. I really miss them girls. It really is amazing how we can be miles apart, but yet so close. :) Looking forward to it! :)

Before I do so tho, I have to get through my finals (the exam questions are coming out next week), and get together my lab meeting (am dreading it). It's pretty incredible how I'm almost two years into my Ph.D and yet accomplish so little. Sigh.

Anyways gonna go work somemore! :P I'll talk to you guys later. :)

Bunny.

I don't know how some girls can survive on eating carrots and yogurts for lunches (yes, I'm talking about you Kathy, with your costco endless supply of baby carrots. I recently found out from Renee that baby carrots with hummus make a very yummy (and healthy/low carb) snack, so I've been addicted to it for the past week or so. But no matter how much frigging carrots I eat, I can never get satiated! WTH. I just ate half a 24 oz of baby carrots with half a carton of eggplant hummus, and I still am not full in the slightest. In the end, I got sick and tired of chewing (I think the mastication action burns more calories than the carrot can provide), got fed up and went to cook ramen noodles. -__- Also, I felt somewhat like a bunny.

Sorry, am being totally random. Also, I have tripped over my bed frame a total of 6 times ever since I got it assembled. ust broke one of my toenails on it again. SIGH.

Edwards 40 hands!

I was driving home on Thursday when I got a text from Renee "Edwards 40hands tomorrow?" For those of you who are not familiar with the game, it's a drinking game which requires both yr hands to be duct-taped to two bottles of 40 oz beers. And I have to say, it was pretty damn fun!
I went over in my pjs and no makeup cuz I was kinda sleepy. Haw haw.
Renee and I chickened out and got our hands strapped to 12 oz beers initially. :P
Cheers!
Helping Yvonne with the hookah (vodka orange!) because both her hands were duct-taped to a 40s. Ha ha.
Guang's a trooper! Grimey finished first though. Ha.

Guang being an arse and getting in the picture.
Group shot!

Bottoms up!

Yvonne drinking out of a......brown paper bag. Ha.
They decided that strapping Brandy and Chanel to a 40oz beer would be funny.

We quickly devised a system of drinking...
Brandy first....
then Chanel! (Aren't we the smartest. In the end, we had to get very low to drink the beer, which resulted in us yelling at each other to "get low byatch!" Ha.)
Casualties of war. :) Fun times! :P
