Spreading the gospel
Word about my wonderful new blog is going far and wide. My parents had just better not come here by accident.
Spent the day looking for beads and things with the Crafts people for the Carnival on Arab Street, and then went to Qing's house with them (the Crafts people) all to do silly things with them (the beads and things).
Mwina: I'm bad at crimping. [correct term]
Faye[10 minutes later]: I'm awful at scrimping. Look at this! It sucks!
XT [30 minutes later]: Qing (our teacher), is my creaming okay?
We added up our intended selling prices and found out that if everything went the way we want them too, we'd be making a 100% profit. Yay.
I made a bookmark. Was feeling bored yesterday night and so made the cutouts itty bitty.
Mwina swore that one day if I ever opened a bookmark shop she'd rob me. I consider that a compliment.
Ate ban3 mian4 for the first time in my life. $3.50 for a big bowl.
I'm happy.
I found a little store in bugis that's selling the most truly and breathtaking Totoro stamps. Being made of top grade materials, however, they're all truly and breathtakingly expensive. Everything, I am told, has a price.
Couldn't afford anything, having spent most of my money on beads and things.
Still not sad. This is what an afternoon in the company of crazy classmates can do to you.
Am currently reading Le Morte d'Arthure. I spent the entire bus/train journey home laughing about it. If only poor Thomas Malory had intended to be so funny.
Oh, and I stuffed myself on chocolate today. First the legendary eclair that Bead Papa was reputed to serve, which I absolutely had to try today from the Bugis Junction outlet, which was not only crammed to bursting with chocolate creme but also annoited with pure sin. Then the bar of cashew nut Cadbury's that wonderful Deborah brought along to Qing's house, which all of us but wonderful Deborah decimated, of which I probably took more than my fair share of. And then when I reached home and dragged out the weighing scale I noted, with some degree of stupified surprise, that I had in fact lost HALF A KG.
Now I'm really, really happy.
