Dear Diary,

Last night was miserable cos of the mozzies. Rn the bites are swelling; they legit look like the result of physical abusement. Anyway, watching Wheel of Fortune while having brekkie has become a morning routine for me during the weekend. 😆 If Wheel of Fortune stopped airing at that 8.30-9.30AM timeslot, I wouldn’t know what to do with my life lmao. 

I went to Khoo Teck Puat Hospital to meet up with my partner-in-crime (060418 for context) for lunch since she was at her cousin’s place, which is a stone’s throw away from KTPH. Her grandma was there too, and she’s one of the sweetest human beings I’ve met. 😍 Aw, she briefly reminded of my own grandma. We entered Subway and “Don’t Dream It’s Over” was playing. 😍😍 Partner-in-crime & I had a hearty meal, exchanging (uninteresting) stories of our lives in between bites. Apparently, Subway was playing some oldies music playlist or smth from Spotify, thus I decided to be cheeky and groove to the beat, pretending that I know all the songs... until I actually knew a song. Unfortunately, I didn’t know 75% of the lyrics, so I sounded like an idiot mumbling incomprehensible words, then all of a sudden bursting into my falsetto, “HOLD ME CLOSER TINY DANCER”, in my best Elton John impression. We had a good laugh.

KTPH is such a chill, tranquil place with plentiful of empty benches & lush greenery, making it an ideal study spot. We went upstairs and sat on a bench to practice our songs for our performance (aka Zest Arts Festival). It wasn’t as productive as I’d envisioned but hey, all that matters is that we had fun & relieved our school stress. Took a bit of time finalising our repertoire, so I joked that our last resort could be me doing a solo of “Tiny Dancer”. Ok, the song’s gonna be stuck in my head for the days to come.

We got bored and went over to her cousin’s place. More idle strumming on the guitar/ukulele, effortless & pitchless singing, and drunkard laughing because we were tired. Everything about the house -- every little detail like the sheet of plastic stuck on the ceiling of the bedroom door (because the wall above the door was akin to a vent, so the plastic prevents the air-conditioning from escaping the room) was giving me old-school vibes. Haiz, I couldn’t help but get all sentimental & reminisce those days back in my old hood. :”) There were many relatives and everyone’s hospitable; I’d love to be partner-in-crime’s sister or cousin, so I’d never feel lonely at home. 😭 I had loads of fun with her and I’m super stoked to attend her school musical on Saturday.

I bought takeaway for dinner. Mum & I sat at the TV all the way till 10PM cos we were watching 红星大奖 (Star Awards) 2018. Basically, it’s an awards ceremony for our local Mandarin TV shows. The artistes looked so fking fly & sexy in their suits & dresses, but ok some of the dresses weren’t practical for walking the red carpet/going up to stage. During the commercial break, we decided to roleplay a little, so I grabbed a pretend trophy (aka a sofa bolster) and handed it to her. 😂😂 Wtf idek why I’m doing such weird things today. I’m so dumb.
