Luis's Chinese Tuition Lessons

Posted by Susan Wong on February 1, 2012 at 10:35 AM Comments comments (0)

My younger boy Luis flop his chinese badly last year.  So I had engaged a Chinese home tutor for him since last year December.  After having "warm-up" with his new teacher, he revealed his "true-self" to the tutor.

 

They will have their lesson at the dinning table in the living room and this was what I over heard a few weeks ago ~~~

老师:绍辉,用"恐怕"来造句。

绍辉:我最近很忙,恐怕不能上学了。

老师:不可以,不可以。。。。。(笑到。。。。)

我:-________-||| (啼笑皆非)

 

 

Then last week, another episode.  Luis was given 4 pictures where he was suppose to write a composition with.  In short, the pictures were about a blind man knocks on the door selling biscuits, so the boy in the picture bought a packet from him, simple.  The teacher guided him and asked him to imagine himself as the boy in the picture who opens the door ~~~

老师:盲人叔叔说 "小弟弟,可以买一包饼干吗?" 你接着怎么回答呢?

my hopeless son answered: 对不起,我不吃饼干。

 

I was trying my very best not to burst out laughing, until my stomach pain (I bet it's better than sit-ups).  The tutor was perhaps the most patient person I ever met in my whole life.  Of course, they completed the composition at the end, after much nonsense from my son, sigh....................

 

Gonna end blog with 2 bimbo pics~~

Mustard wool hair clip bought from China;

Mini knitted cardi from HongKong (long ago);

Tube maxi dress from Vietnam;

Cane bag from Taobao;

Stripy wedge from PrettyFit (the only item bought locally, hur hur..)

When overly-emo becomes stupid

Posted by Susan Wong on January 26, 2012 at 1:40 AM Comments comments (0)

Quite a few months ago, this picture flooded my FaceBook's wall -

 

So many people post the same thing.......Gosh, she's crying, something heart-break must had happend........ her pet passed away?  the shares she bought slammed?  she's getting divorce?  she gotten cancer?   Then it reads .........

-________-|||    I wonder who wrote these.  If it's a teenager I would understand, but if it's a full grown woman, then I suppose no men would even dare to get close to her lolxx....... 

So the author wrote -

1) When she sees her boyfrien

d talking to other girls.... and the girl starts flirting....!

Your boyfriend must be an anti-social freak if he only talks to you and his mother.  What's wrong talking to other females?  Anyway, if she's a bitch instead of a friend, stand beside your boyfriend or stop the conversation lah, simple as that, need to lean the wall and cry meh, so stupid....

2) When her boyfriend n her txting/instand message n the guy doesn't txt her/message back fast enough...!

Able to understand the author's super English.......This is totally absurd and unreasonable.  You got any urgent matter, CALL.  If nothing urgent, it won't kill to wait.  Anyway capable men are very busy at work, battling with $$$$ deals, so if you love him, don't hinder/disturb him.   If your boyfriend seriously replys you at a instant everytime without fail, I'm sorry to say that he's really free and is doing nothing but waiting for your command.

3) When her boyfriend has the same class as her n ignores her n hangs out with other friends..!

You ignore me, I will ignore you also lor, he hangs out with other friends, I will hang out with my gang also lah.....  If he finds you boring, there must be thousands of guys out there who finds you lovely or dying to go out with you.  But again everybody needs a breather, how to stick to a person day in day out 24hrs??

4)  When she sees her boyfriend checking out other girls, while she's with him...!

Those girls must have owe your boyfriend $$$ lolxx.... but if he's doing it purposely, ditch him lah why waste time on people who are not sincere?

5)  When she has to wait outside the movie theatre looking like a loner while she waits for her boyfriend that's 20mins late...!

Education is really important,  the author's English......sigh.... Anyway, if my hubby is so late, instead of sulking, I will be worried sick if anything has happened to him or what urgent matter has cropped up.  But if he's late without a reason, then I would had gone into the theatre to enjoy the movie myself liao, where got stupid gong gong stand outside and wait, aiyo....... so don't blame others for making you looking like a loner (idiot), blame yourself for being stupid.

6) When her boyfriend acts like he's going to break up with her.... he doesn't even **missing text** to act. it's a vibe...!

Not only teenagers got this problem, adults too.  This can be really sad, yeah, now you got a good reason to lean to the wall and weep.  But if this guy doesn't even have the courage to open his mouth for the break off, he's a coward.  Why would you want a coward as a boyfriend?  Just let him disappear like a pest.  Cry, but not too much, cos' it's not worthit.

7) When she holds her hand out for her boyfriend to hold, he just keeps walking..!

Then just grab hold of him lah!  What kind of useless girl are you, can't even get hold of a guy's hand, how to get hold of your own happiness?  Still can blame ppl for keep walking some more lolxx.....

8) When her boyfriend acts like he is going to get her something special and he was just sugguesting something... so she has to buy it herself...!

What to do If your boyfriend is just a ordinary student or just started out working?  You want him to rob the bank meh?   If you are dying to get this and get that, go and find a god father.  If you are capable enough, buy whatever you want YOURSELF.

9) When her boyfriend doesn't care about her 1 week, 1 month, 1 year anniversary, everything in between... they are all special to her...!

I understand that there are people who really bothers about anniversaries.  Creating a big fuss, demanding for celebrations are wasting of time (to me).  I'm abnormal I suppose.  Dates are not important to me, but days are, everyday it's important.  All I want is to spend everyday with him, day after day, month after month, year after year, till we pass on.

10) When she tells her boyfriend she loves him n he says he loves her back, only becoz he wants to get into her pants.....!

Eh..... this one no comment, the choice it's yours lolxx....

CNY 2012

Posted by Susan Wong on January 23, 2012 at 8:40 AM Comments comments (0)

I had took in less nail appointments compared to last year.  Despite of doing so, there were still hiccups.   As a result, I had no time to go toilet or to eat properly.  So, next year, I'll be taking lesser appointments.  I rather do a few sets of special nails than massive factory-like nail works ^^

 

A few sets of nails which I had done before CNY -

 

This young lady came all her way to me from Jurong.  I was very grateful and touched, although I did not kiss or hug her, heehee.....

This set belongs to one of my regular.  She was slim, tall and fair, looking stunning even without make-up.  And that she's a mother of a baby boy.  Mad jealous....

 

I still love doing nails, but 2 weeks of work had deprived me from decent food.  For 2 good weeks I took quick meals, so quickly that everything was tasteless.  As a result, I dropped another 1.5kg or so.  I looked like shit in baggy home clothes for 2 weeks.  One of my skirt which cannot be worn already, 50% of my wardrobe is over-sized.

I wore this Vietnam costume on CNY's eve.  Bought it from Vietnam for about S$17, but I had spend more than $20 to get it altered 2 times.   Seriously don't know to laugh or cry.  But I suppose it's still worth it, from the reactions I got from strangers.

 

Bimbo's quote - Nice clothes aren't enough, they need to be stunning.
