Angry

What does one do when one becomes disgusted by one's parents?

What can one do when one's mother is biased but she isn't aware?

What does one do when one's mama constantly denies one's accusations?

She's so d*mned biased and she am doesn't even realise it, much less accept and try to make amendments.
So im all moody and angry all the time and she just gives me this stupid and blank look like she's done nothing wrong and I'm wrong for being moody.
Then she'll drill and drill and drill me until I tell her, which, btw, is one of the worst traits anyone can have.
Then she'll deny and deny and deny.

Sigh alright gtg I'm late for my flight.

Aunties

Right now I'm in KinMen 金门, Taiwan. Will be heading off to XiaMen 厦门, China, in another 15 minutes so I'm just gonna make this quick.

Yesterday, me, my mama and my grandma spent the whole day touring the island. KinMen is an Island, btw.
We are going to XiaMen and meeting my Dad and bro there. Then we'll slowly make our way to my Aunts hous in KunShan 昆山, China, while playing along the day.
So right now I'm like the 3G. Haha. XD
Cause I'm the 3rd Generation and all.

Anyway, there were two tours, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Both tours go to different places in KinMen.
In the morning tour, there were 9 of us.
3 being us 3G, 2 men from Hong Kong, and 4 aunties from Taiwan.

The 2 Hong Kong men were youn, around 20.
Meaning, the aunties flirted. It is disgusting and awkward to watch.
But the guys were more happy-go-lucky and just joked around with them.

The aunties didn't really care abt me. Occasionally one of them will exchange a few words with me, a few sentences with my ma. Then either go back to their small group or talk to the men.
I'm gonna call them 2M, the aunties 4A and I'm 3G haha.

I'm running out of time. Skip to the main point.
At one of the sites we visited, a stall sold Tea Leaf Eggs(?) 茶叶蛋 in which they incorporated the taste of 高粱酒, which is KinMen's special wine.
They were selling at 15 yuan/egg, and one of the aunties bought 7 for 100 yuan.
The shop was at the top of a hill, and my grandma had joint pains and couldn't climb the huge flight of stairs.
So my mama waited at the foot with her.
Doing simple math, anyone can deduce that there were exactly 7 of us at the shop selling eggs.
Well the aunty went "I'll treat you 2 handsomest ok?" FYI, the 4A called them 'handsomes' as a noun.
So the two got the eggs. An I was standing right behind them the whole time and they just freaking ignored me. Even though there were exactly 7 of us, and 7 eggs.
The 4A left quickly, no extra egg left for me.

WTH right???
I hate such aunties.

The 2M stayed and they felt very awkward as well, but I'm not blaming them or anything.
So in the end, poor old me obediently payed for my eggs.
I bought 2 for my mama and grandma.

Here ends my tale of woe.
It's not the fact they didn't treat me that got me so worked up, it's the fact that they were so blatantly RUDE and BIASED that pissed me off.

Freaking flirts.

Going to Taiwan

Hello everyone~~~
I'm in Taiwan yeah~~~

I took the supposed 1.35 pm flight yesterday, but it ended up being delayed for an hour. =_=

They only announces it AFTER we were seated in the waiting area, which means that we couldn't get out and go look arnd the shops. We had to sit there and do nothing for an hour.

And me, having my luck, only had two hours of sleep the night before.
All thanks to my dear phone which hanged on me the night before.
No matter how many times I tried to restart it. It wouldn't budge. So on desperation, I had to restore it.

WHICH FREAKING TOOK 4 HOURS.

Restore meaning all of my apps, my pic, my songs were all deleted. So I had to install them all agn. T_T
And now I have 1,200+ songs in my phone since I haven't got to deleting those I don't really like.
For the record, I have 2,300+ songs in my com, meaning I have to hand pick the songs to transfer to my phone.
And I have 100+ apps.
Thus the four hours which were taken from my precious sleep.

Anyway, me and my mother arrived at around 10 am at the airport, which is way too early. We had to wait for 15 min before we could check in. =_=

And at arnd 11 am Piggy and Squeak and Ger came to see me off~~~~
First time I actually asked my friends to come and see me off. :D
We didn't know what to do at the airport so we went to Terminal 3 since piggy wanted to eat subway.
But, surprise surprise, we had no idea how to reach subway. =_=

So we just walked around and settlers for Popeye's instead, no matter how reluctant piggy was (she didn't have a good impression).

PS: thank you über rich piggy for treating us! So not my b'day present btw! ^^

And when we were finishing, donkey and fish suddenly called and told me that they were coming! :O

Background info: Fish REALLY didn't wanna come and kept insisting that she wasn't free.

Which is why I was actually shocked that they came.

And by the time they say down with us at Popeyes we only had a... tube of coleslaw left. And we kept pushing the poor thing all across the table because nobody wanted it. Sorry coleslaw! XD

Ger had to leave early because she had to rush to work as a gift wrapper. Thanks so much for coming nevertheless! ^^

Fish wanted to leave as well and I went "if you leave I won't buy you anything!" and she shut her trap. Ahahahaha~

By that time it was 12.20 pm and I was freaking out because I thought the flight was at 1pm.
Although in the end, my mother admitted that she told me it was at 1 since she didn't want me to be late.
Well she was right abt that but it doesn't mean that I liked being lied to. Sigh...

So, long story short, first time in my life my friends came to see me off at the airport, then I panicked and was almost late for my flight, then the flight was postponed for an hour where I just stared into space.

And now Taiwan is freezing. Well, was.
Today the temp is fine but ytd it was cold as when hell freezes over.
It was 13C and the wind was darn strong.

Alright we're going somewhere soon so I'll just stop here. :)

Voyage De La Vie

I have no idea what that means. XD
It's a theatre show that's currently showing in Sg, Resort World Sentosa, has been for quite some time already.

On Saturday my Dad suddenly came home to give us (me, mama, bro) the tickets. He got them from someone else who wasn't able to go.
The tickets were crappy. =_=
We sat at like, the THIRD ROW and wasn't able to see everything cause sometimes the actors block our view.

Anyway, I think that even if you did buy the tickets, it is totally worth the money.
It's like going to a circus, actually.
They have so many mind-blowing stunts!

Although the storyline kinda didn't make any sense and the songs nothing much, the stunts were outstanding. Seriously awesome. XD
I highly recommend this.

Note of advice: Buy better seats.

The first row had to keep breathing in the fumes and powder. Ugh.

Fun Facts:

- A violin contains about 70 separate pieces of wood

- Taphephobia is the fear of being buried alive

P.S: I'm going overseas for a month this coming Saturday (yay!), so I won't be posting a frequently.

Lion- Short Story Intro

Sorry I haven't been posting. I am currently working on my short story named 'Lion' which has been on hold for quite some time.

I finally decided that I want to finish it.
I'm up to one of the last chapters, so it won't be long. I will put the story in here as another page.

The inspiration for the story actually came from a picture that I saw online.
It was an online story writing competition (haha just nice) where the perticipants had to craft a story based on the picture that they provided.
The picture was of a tiger sitting in some long grass.

When I saw this picture, I immediately thought of this... poem?
I'm not sure if it can be classified as a poem.


I am a Lion, a ferocious Lion
I hunt all things; nothing hunts me.

I am a big Lion, a great Lion.
Weak Lions run from me; strong Lions run to me.

I am a handsome Lion, an Alpha Lion.
Lionesses flock around me, begging for my attention.

Everything fear me; I fear nothing.

At first it was 'tiger' instead of 'lion', but I decided to change it to lion as I found lions easier to write.
Of course, I took quite long to actually start writing so I didn't enter the competition.

Well that's all I have to say, just giving you guys a heads up and some background information.
I hope to finish the story by the end of this week.
I'm not sure what genre the story is, most likely adventure, but also not enough of adventure.
I had started the story with a moral as the skeleton, so look out for that.

And... Uh... Bye.
