Arrrgghh, frigging bejeezes! I lost the soap down the drain. It was a new slice too. *grumbles*
I assume no one knows what I'm talking about. Well, me and my sister are lush fans and my sister got me this one soap that I've been eyeing for a while, but never got because it's kind of pricey. It's called 'honey I washed the kids' and it smells really really good. Like candy actually. Well, I finally blew off the dust after I kind of forgot about it for something like 4 months. (Hehehe, oops my bad. )
Anyways, I didn't want to use the whole thing at once because first of all we had no extra soap holder to put it in and it melts away pretty fast if you leave it in the bathroom due to its...I don't know, ingredients. So usually I cut a piece off, probably about 7cm x 1.5cm x 1.5cm. It sort of looks like a stick now but it lasts something like two and a half weeks per piece this way.
Basically I just finished soaping up my face and then I dropped it. I quickly rinsed my face and looked down to find it, but alas, I see the stupid thing go down the hole. How the hell....I don't know how in the world it did that, the angle of that drain is pretty perpendicular if you ask me. *sigh* Oh woe is me. Expensive little bugger, that little piece in itself was probably like, 3 bucks already. Sucks.
I've been wanting to get a strainer for the drain in the tub, but I've never really remembered, the few times I went shopping. I know it's my fault but it doesn't make me any less annoyed and frustrated. Gar, it was a new piece. Blah. I should have just opened my eyes, pain be damned and intercept it. I'll get over it. *sigh* Oh well.
Man, what a dumb topic to talk about. I haven't written anything here in about two weeks and the thing I talk about is soap. Well I guess it's better than nothing. Not much really happened as far as I remember. Maybe something will come to me later.
The only thing I have going is that I'll be attending a cool, snazzy, fake, high class fashion show fundraiser for AIDS. Ohohohoh, we get to dress up and watch a fashion show (obviously), drink-high class sparkling apple juice out of our fancy plastic champagne glasses, and look at auctions. I think there's also a speaker too. There's probably something else, but I can't quite remember right now. 10 bucks for students. Bonus. One of my friends is helping to organize it, not to mention it's for a good cause and it sounds like fun. And right after my chem mid-term too. I need a break.
There's also something of an Alice in Wonderland Mad Hatter's Ball thing happening the day after the fundraiser too. The only thing is that I don't think I want to go to that. It was listed in the See Paper, I think. Basically it's just a costume party with door prizes and the adults can drink alcohol. A regular party it seems, only kids are allowed here too. I don't feel so keen on it. I was never really too interested in things like that. I mean with the alcohol. Not to mention the last party I went to, I didn't really have too good a time. Though that was partly my fault.
This said party was a Chinese New Years Banquet. Basically, after a while of feeling left out (some 3 hours it seems with no one really talking to me), I started to get tired and thus, moody. It was probably cause there were too many people there and on top of that I was just getting over that cold I had not too long ago. I was still coughing a bit then.
After the initial 4 hours, I didn't really feel like talking anymore even when someone did speak to me. One of the people I knew there asked me if I wanted a ride back home, but I didn't want to leave my sister. I feel kind of responsible of her. Not to mention the party was in the Chinatown area. Not really the best place. Call me over-protective but I stayed, if only for her, she tends to not be too aware of her surroundings, I find. Bad bad, I think Mei Mei felt a bit left out too, seeing as her two friends were basically only talking between themselves and some random other people that they happened to know which was also at the party.
Pretty sad once I think about it, my sister's friends were Caucasians and they knew more Asians than me and my sister put together. How pathetic is that? But I think my sister interacted with them more than I did with anyone during the whole...what was it...6 hours at the party , not to mention the two people that I would talk to more regularly than my sister's friends (which I know, but don't really know....does that make sense?) were sitting across the table from me, not very good for conversations. I find it takes a long time for me to really consider someone a friend so it's kind of hard to talk to people other than people I've known closely for a long time. No offence to my sister's friends hopefully, I'd probably really only talk to TT if I had to talk to only on of ling's friends cause I've known her longer. In the end, I'm not much of a partier.
I don't blame that one party. I've been to a few and each time I find them lacking. It's just not for me. Man, am I self-absorbed? I feel like it. Stop focusing on yourself Iris. Augh. Selfish. I felt bad too after a while because I think I was ruining the evening for everyone else.
Me and Chow each won a door prize though! She got a puzzle of the world and I got.....Buddah....*sweatdrop*...what the...I ended up giving it away to one of the guys we knew there that had initially invited us all to attend to this banquet. I don't believe in those things and it was kind of ugly. It scared me in some small form. It was funny when my sister's friend got roped into dancing with this one guy, that was practically grinding her. She looked very uncomfortable, we tried to give her a way out by saying that her 'phone' (Chow's phone actually) was ringing. She told us it wasn't her phone. *sigh* Well we tried.
But yeah, I think I sort of destroyed the night for everyone else. I don't think I'll attend another one or those again. The food, alright for 20 bucks, would probably be all that I'd go for. I was pretty anxious to leave. I'm sorry guys, I wasn't too happy that day.
Augghhh, happy thoughts! Happy thoughts! Snow! Okay that didn't work. There's only slush outside and people seem to think, 'hey, there's tons of snow or whatever, that means drive faster!' In the last week alone there have been like....geez 8,9,10 or something car crashes a day. Many fatalities. Don't blame it ALL on the weather people. Blah.
Alright, breathe, breathe......I am now calm....zennnn....
