last evening to this afternoon, would forever be etched in my memory.

started with a long long walk from city to joy's place in south bank...i was already exhausted from the walk...staying up the night before chatting on MSN is not helping me at all.

reached joy's place..and joy, lauren and i played tennis. now, people who know me well would know i am not a tennis player. badminton's my game...tennis, squash, table tennis etc...uh uh, can't do it. but, i had fun trying to hit the ball. though the strong wind made hitting the ball so much more challenging. joy and lauren are so much better than me...my right wrist was dying and yet the two of them still continued to play.

and then, back to joy's place...shower and dinner time!three of us, crowding around joy's hotplate and deep frying tempura!! (and eating it whil we cook...) we started with eggplant...then sweet potato...then onions...then mushrooms (oh man, mushroom tempura is so so so yummy!!). then joy suggested chocolate tempura! (well..she actually wanna try ice cream..luckily lauren and i managed to talk her out of it)...so she took out this choc bar...coated with tempura batter..and put it into the hot hot hot oil. the choc started melting...so we tried to drip more batter on it to stop the choc from leaking out into the oil. suddenly, with no warning at all..there was a large "POP" and then i felt the HOT HOT oil splat onto my index finger..and joy started yelping in pain and putting her hand under running water. now, i have a mini blister on my finger..and she has 3 red spots on her hand.

lesson learnt: deep fried choc don't work in non-commercial kitchens.

oh, our dinner wasn't just tempura. lauren made her yummy yummy lagsana and that was our main course. and of course, we din eat dinner without entertainment. we were lounging on joy's sofa...watching desperate housewives (courtesy of joy's friend's bf). and it was so so so good!! somwhere in the middle, we also ate chips and cheezels...and each of us had at least 3 cups of tea...when we came to the last 2 episodes...and loaded in the last disc, it WASN'T desperate housewives!!!! ARGH!!! disappointment, shock, anger.....i was seriously mad!! but...there's nothing we can do...and so our desperate housewives marathon came to a very anti-climax stop at 2 am. *sob*

after that, we loaded in princess diaries 2 (which joy slept through...) and lauren and i were just ooh-ing and ahh-ing together. (yeah yeah..desperado is our middle name...) then joy woke up at the end of the show..and we decided we were hungry again! Bwhaha!! so, we cooked 3 packets of instant noodle (NTUC Fairprice brand!) and ate while watching Ocean's 12. Instant noodle taste so much better at 4 am in the morning. wuahahaha!!

well, i gave in to my exhaustion after the yummy noodle. so i slept through ocean's 12 (and joy slept through it too...) woke up at 6am when the show ended...changed position and slept till 8.15am. lazed around...had breakfast...joy tried to teach me to play abit of piano (well, not totally successful. now i admire JC's muscial talent even more *giggle*) and then played tennis (again...). Joy then drove Lauren and I back to our apartments...ending our fantastic sleepover. *sigh*

and now, back in the apartment and had instant noodles (again...) for lunch. exhaustion and stress is infiltrating every single brain cell. i so want to lie on my bed and concuss for the next 24 hours...but i can't...

i have an assignment due on friday...i have to read up for my paediatrics placement...i need to do tutorials for tomorrow's theory day.

i have a strong urge to cry..and an even stronger need for a shoulder to lean on. *sniffle*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
oh, let me day dream about my prince charming,
coming to rescue me on his beautiful white stallion.
let me sleep..sleep till he arrives and kiss me...
let me have the power to stop procrastinating
and let me have the determination to stay up
to finish my assignment and tutes.
