I’m two days behind in homework. This morning … we ate breakfast in a shop across the road. It was ok … except I loved the fried thick thingos. I’ve eaten them in Australia before … they go with soup. When I was eating I saw a big, red ant with wings gliding along the surface of the window sill next to me. It was a queer sight. Looking closer, I found out that it was actually a smaller ant the size of half the larger ant’s head pushing the supposedly dead larger ant home. It was a slow process but I really was amazed at the strength of the smaller ant! I really wanted to take a picture but I knew the smaller ant wouldn’t show up on the camera – it was teenie. Soon, the ants disappeared into a gap in the wall.

Then, grandma, grandpa and my brother went back home (once again) and aunty 2, mum and I went shopping. Soon, we returned home cause we knew Winyi (my cousin) had arrived. She goes to university and I came home seeing her peel grapes, unseeding them and popping them into my 10 year old brother’s mouth. We played Mr and Mrs Scribble a few times but ended up going out again, leaving grandma and grandpa behind. We shopped along the entire of Beijing Road, spent a few hours at Giordano and ate dinner at Lucky Restaurant.

When we finished eating dinner we waited, waited AND WAITED for a lift … and finally, when we boarded one, something funny happened. The lift went over weight. Someone got off and we went down. There was a … quite plump boy on the lift and a little girl who was also on the lift say quite loudly “I know who’s the heaviest on the lift! It’s my brother!” And at that moment I seriously felt really sorry for him. It must have been a very embarrassing moment and would’ve lowered his self esteem quite a bit. Anyway, we were out for a few hours – returning home at around 10:30. I was exhausted. I still have to shower and skip a day’s worth of homework (oh well – I can always catch up on it later) … so I really should get off the computer. Bye :)
