Lost in translation

After one totally exciting day of me getting a fish and attending 2 Kiwi "Barbies" one after another, someting terrible happened. There was a crack on my precious fish bowl and water seeped out non-stop. I was quite drained after a long day of work and fun and really wanted to just run to my bed. But i was so afraid that sharkie might just die the next day so i held my eyelids opened and covered the bottom of the bowl with cellulose tape and duct tapes. I must be dreaming of sharkie even when I was sleeping---Woke up several times to check on the water level in case a drought happens. I called the pet shop in the morning and hazel was nice enough to take a bus down with me even though we were unsure of the exact route. Much walking later, we got to our destination and got a new bowl in exchange without questions asked. I made sure everything was perfect this time round by getting the bowl wrapped in newspaper and bubble wrap. No risky business since a trip to the pet shop isn't exactly easy without a car.

As expected, i was totally elated. BUT the problem came instantly. We couldn't find the correct bus stop back to the city!Believe me it isn't that straightforward as singapore.There are numerous routes and they don't go in loops sometimes. I tried asking people but to no avail.Then we thought help came when we saw daryl driving past. Alas, he didn't stop at all and waved to us with a dazed look.UhHUH!!! I suggested walking back to the city and as we were ploughing back along the long and winding road, this other guy from singapore(can't rem his name) spotted us and stopped his car!!!!!!!!! Salvation is here!!!!! And the rest were mundane and boring to type so that's my story for saturday.

Sunday's excitement began at noon when we had our crazy sports day. We had ourselves(including the face) painted with tempera paints and we played all sorts of silly games.Hope I manage to get those pictures and I'll post them!!! And as usual, I made a mistake of painting designs on my legs and not putting enough sun block on my face. Now I have legs with prints of hearts and flowers on them as well as a streaky tan on my face!!! UGLY! WHat more can i say.
