Of Creaking Wardrobes and FaceBook.

First and foremost, I declare a need for a new wardrobe. It's (and I emphasize here) not a want but its a need. You know, just in case, my boyfriend decides to say I just want a new wardrobe, for the sake of wanting a new "something". Well anyway, this paragraph is going abit senseless. Yah, the point is, I've been trying to squeeze all my hangers with my clothes into the wardrobe. The situation before is actually quite bad and now its getting worse. You should just see me standing there with 4 or 5 hangars with neatly pressed clothes in one hand, staring and looking for any teeny weeny space to cramp in those 4 or 5 hangars. When I don't see any available space, that's when the making space comes in, and then I heard creaking coming from the pole where loads of hangars hang from....Apparently, it's warning me, that it cannot make it past this year end without collapsing. By the way, It's an Ikea wardrobe and its been around for 7 years so the fallacy that Ikea furniture is not durable is quite flawed. Ok, unless your definition of durable is the ability to last at least a decade. But its Ikea here, so 7 years is already a long time. =)
Thankfully, the wardrobe is quite long-suffering, can tahan for such a long time.

Oh well, its really time to get a new wardrobe because creaking is not good. It means it can just give way and collapse anytime soon. And then you will hear my mum scream... Haha that's what I'm afraid of.

Not my wardrobe breaking. It's the aftermath. My mum's screams and incessant nagging. Hah, I guess it's time to ask my dad to drive me to Ikea and do some wardrobe shopping with me. Hm.

Okay, Oops sorry mum, hopefully my dad and mum doesn't read this.

I'm really loving FaceBook, not because of the really fun applications but because of the level of connectivity it gives to users. Yes, initially, it was really the novelty of the cool applications, what with sending virtual gifts, candies and drinks to friends, that made me sign in day in and day out. But now, it really brings a huge smile to my face everytime, someone I know has been added to my list of friends. And what brightened my day recently, was this add friend request from my long lost friend, Jing Xi from first 3 months class in JC. That rush of familiarity and all those lovely memories were just priceless. And FaceBook kinda made it so easy to keep in touch with lost friends. People, you have so easily forgotten and seemingly 'chucked' out of your life unknowingly.

Really, it brought back so many fond memories of Eileen, Jing Xi, Lychee (Li Qi, this other boy from VS who tagged along because he had a huge crush on JingXi) and I hanging out together. We skipped lectures together, scrippled notes and copied each others' homework during first 3 months. We were even huge supporters of the pool place (we even skipped classes just to play pool, HAHA) at the Meridian. They were my best buddies during those times. And now, we are in different places reaching different goals.

We are finally planning to meet up this year end for a get together since both of them are still studying in Australia while Eileen and I, in Singapore. It's really nice to meet up with long lost friends and getting to know them all over again.

Now, go sign up for FaceBook!. ;)
