The simplest food is the hardest to cook.

In my hunger, I forgot about that for a moment there. I regret ordering from the Japanese stall in the food court hahaha.

Overcooked, soggy soba that isn't cold enough and store-bought (can be forgiven) sauce that isn't diluted properly. Since these were overcooked, I figured the tofu might taste normal, but on the contrary, it was undercooked instead. T.T I'm appalled when I can probably cook better than people who cook for a living!

I think the newspapers were right about overpriced food at food courts. -sigh- Food like that should either be cheaper or of a better standard zz. It's not even peak hour now so they don't even have the excuse of rushing to serve the dish. In fact, I'm one of the 5 diners here now.

Seriously, my sister's instant noodles are cooked better.

-sigh- I think the lack of calories in my system is making me cranky. :<

Speaking of food, I haven't cooked anything in a while. I blame it on a lack of inspiration, groceries and space to walk around in the kitchen. .___.

I meant to clean it today! But unfortunately I sprained my ankle in an incredibly stupid way. D: When I woke up this morning, I stood up right? On my still-numb left leg. It gave way and... ow. It's not a serious injury, but I think I've learnt my lesson when it comes to aggravating injuries.

Oh, injuries. ): The Planet is getting an operation for her knee! (Hahaha a planet with knees.) Sounds really scary! I haven't asked her if it's local or general anaesthesia. o_o Hope it goes well!

Hmm I miss home-cooked food. Maybe I should cook this weekend. ._. Or tomorrow, but I don't feel like asking my mum to buy stuff and cooking for one is difficult. Most importantly, my kitchen is still screwed up.

...oh forget it. T_T

I don't even...!

-sigh- It just occurred to me that the reason why there are so many problems in the world is that it might be run by immature, unstable people in the guise of adults. I guess some people never grow up, not in that innocent sense. They never grow out of tantrums, or petty arguments, or general self-centric behaviour. They expect the world to be at their beck and call, like over-indulgent parents. If the world fails to do as much (which obviously it does, for it has its own, more important concerns, which coincidentally include the numerous other spoilt children), then they either blow themselves up, thinking they'll get attention, or blow others up, for all the 'wrong' they have done to them.

The other revelation is about relationships. I'm starting to think it might be a vicious cycle of some sort, where young people do not receive adequate or appropriate guidance and affection from their parents, resulting in them seeking it elsewhere. It's probably all a gamble then, most marriages. Hmm. Which is fine, but why gambling addicts don't seek help from those counsellors is beyond me. T_T

Why is society riddled with problems? Makes it too much like cheese. If it were edible, it's likely to be the squishy kind.

Some days I just feel like giving up. ):

Spotted: a wild Sarah

HAHAHA why is it you're the only one who leaves comments, dear Sarah? xD

Whee I feel a tad more social this week, because I've been talking to random friends. (Y) Most of my weeks have been filled with either the silent company of my duck or the chirping of my bird. Cute as Bluey is it no speak english. T_T

(Speaking of which I think I was almost invited to a 7B dinner, but unfortunately I have obligations to my mother/grandmother. D: So my boredom continues.)

Haha crap I just laughed aloud to myself at Yi Jia's SMS. I think I'm becoming old and lonely haha. Like a weird bird lady OH NO.

I wandered off to Boon Lay today, partly because my mum set free my aeroplane. She suggested meeting her at her workplace because they apparently have an important use for cynical tertiary students like me. o.o Anyway, I was hungry and bored at home. I think my plan to self-entertain backfired, because after lunch I was no longer hungry but still bored. Oh well, I guess the hamsters were cute and the books I borrowed will suffice.

If you must know, I'm glued to my mattress for now. Again. Unemployment is quite dull haha. But it feels nice in a way, not having to rush to do anything or go anywhere for a while. :D

Okay, I've not been completely unproductive! I managed to sew a dress and a cardigan okay! Albeit with wonky stitches because I don't understand sewing machine tension. T.T

Oh and I've accepted the offer to nus yay. So I really have nothing I must do. All I need now is another awkward photo to embarrass myself for the next 4 years. Good eh?

I think I'll come back when I have more things to write about. xD
