she did it again.

a complaint.

this time because i was getting distracted from my work because my brother manages to wrench open a treasure box thing that i couldn't open since like 7 years ago. yeah, i was pretty excited so i started looking at the jewellery and reminiscing but then my mum told me to get on with my work since i was the one who kept complaining i didnt have enough time in the holidays to finish my work.

and of course i apparently threw a cold shoulder at her and put on a bad attitude and made my face contorted apparently .. all in a matter of time between one sentence and another. sure. i wish my brain could make myself throw all these signals subconsciously in a split second too.

she's also getting very complaining herself. currently, the most common phrase she says is: 'if it weren't for me ...' like, i know it's true but you don't have to rub it in our faces. like if there are dishes in the sink when she walks in, she will definitely mutter (mind you, her mutter is far from inaudible) '-sigh- what is the problem with the people in this house ... they're so lazy .. i'm always the one washing the dishes ... of course no one else will ... it's always me ... next time i won't wash them and see how you survive ...' and if there are unfolded clothes on the sofa she will say 'omg ... of course everyone is too lazy to fold the clothes ... they pretend they're blind when they walk past so they don't have to fold it ... it always has to be me doesn't it ... if i don't fold it i'm sure not a single one of you would ...'

AND IT'S JUST BLATANTLY ANNOYING. yes, i know you're the really cool person  keeping the house together. yes, i do. but i do my part and it would really help if you could stop 'muttering' around the house everyday because i'm never going to get a moment of silence coupled with your bickering with dad. i'll fold the clothes, whatever but PEOPLE FORGET, OK?! it's just frustrating when every second sentence your mum makes is a complaint. yes, i know, my bro, dad and i are far from perfect but your annoying tone that you add to the end of your sentences doesnt encourage us a bit.

but then there are the good times :) we mahjonged for 2 hours yesterday ... AND IT WAS SO WEIRD CAUSE THEY ALL WON GAMES BY THEMSELVES. like, they got the thing they wanted by drawing so we all had to pay them. oh, and did i mention that i didnt even win a single game? aha, that was funny :)

a complaint

this is going to be stereotypical teenage superficial rant about my parents - well, in this case, my mum. stop reading here if you're disgusted.

you know when your mum says something that they dont like about you? okay well my mum does that.

and after she says it i'm like . . . ok . . . and you know how there isn't exactly much you can do? so i usually keep quiet and continue what i'm doing. what does she expect me to do? start screaming 'I AM SO SORRY I WILL NEVER DO IT AGAIN!!! FORGIVE ME!!!!!!!!!!!'? that's weird.

so just then i was drinking milk when she complained about how irresponsible i am getting. so i was like :( really? oh dear. and i kept quiet drinking my milk and, naturally, when i finished i went into the kitchen to wash my cup.

THEN MY MUM GOES OH SO WHAT'S THIS ATTITUDE YOU CAN ONLY ACCEPT COMPLIMENTS AND WHEN I CRITICISE YOU YOU THROW A COLD SHOULDER AT ME? GO ON, IGNORE ME ONE DAY YOU'LL LEARN FROM THIS HORRIBLE ATTITUDE OF YOURS.

and i'm like O.O WAIT WHAT!? and the thing is, after that i AM angry cause she's leaving me no options. if i try to explain or say that i'm not, OH OF COURSE then i'll be talking back. if i keep quiet I'M IGNORING HER. that really really gets on my nerves.

fgsdf. argh.

repetition much.

HI THERE OH YEAH YOU'RE SO COOL I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I AM SAYING OR WHY I AM USING CAPS BUT PLEASE OH PUHLEASE TELL ME I GOT THE PERSON RIGHT CAUSE IT'D BE SO EMBARRASSING IF I DIDN'T.

uh huh. the person tagged in this post often shares my asian experiences and is able to understand my canto rantings. she is younger than me but taller than me. a win on her behalf, let's put it that way :P

there was a mini cooper outside my home

. . . it was really cool cause since Maggie keeps spotto-ing on yellow cars and i poke her when i see a mini cooper, we talked about seeing a yellow mini cooper.

a photo! :)
. . . sorry about the graininess and artificial-ness of the photo . . . it was dark and i really wanted a photo without flash so i took one of a blotch and then just dragged the brightness notch to its fullest. oh and i also kind of -cough- schmooshed the license plate -cough-.

very badly taken photo of a yellow mini cooper

the story:
i was packing my stuff on my desk, which faces the window which faces the road :)
FLASH OF YELLOW.
me: wait what that looked like a mini cooper .... -looks out window-
DDDDD: OMG IT IS! =D
-attempts to take photo but fails due to excess, unkempt shrubbery outside our flat-
mum: you can throw the rubbish out and then take a photo ...
me: :D yes yes yes

. . . and so i throw the rubbish and take these photos. it just occurred to me that my mum could be hiring people with yellow mini coopers to park outside and make me throw the rubbish. ANYWAY. yeah :)
