if you remember

one day i used the word "learned" and you asked me "isnt' it 'learnt'"

well both forms exist

and it's not that one's american and one's british

though some people say that

it's cos they dont know grammar

the two differnt forms actually have slightly differnt meanings


and are constructed differently in speech

same goes for burned/burnt

dreamed / dreamt

ahhh thank you SeiSei Emily hehe u have enlightened me ^^

In recent days, a seemingly random group of individuals have developed random abilities in random ways. After randomly finding each other they discovered that their “special” abilities were all linked for one purpose... to get “mindreader” Tim to the EMP Youth Camp and fulfil his destiny.

Every journey has a beginning. Tim's journey begins now...

Frances Dong

Frances Dong. This name has an extensive history of nicknames.... let's go through it shall we? *does excited dance*

k lets start with the basics.

France - As in the country yes.
Francey - Well i guess now its the country in a slightly more affectionate manner
Frank - suddenly everyone identified my name with a male's name, i know i know, these guns do fool u all. I'm pretty sure bui started up that one.
Frankus - Shannon from highskool/primary started this one. Shes a creative one :)
Frankie - I think thats pretty straight forward.
Frankenstein - Definately done by Zef. He flatters me. This was the stage where he'd think of 5 nicknames in a day. I think he resorted to Frankfurt Sausage. Yeah. He flatters me.
Fooces - Yeah it sounds a bit random hey. Well thats cuz it is. Actually it was started by Em. My dad wanted to make me a signature so he wrote frances so fast that it looks like fooces. Emily found that hil-aaarious. She also came up with Secnarf (name backwards). Yeah... we were a bunch of odd children.
Fran - Like the Nanny. I still can't imitate her.
Franny - Mainly used by my crazy highskool/primary friend Pharan.

And now we come to Fanny Dong. Mainly used by... u guessed it. Zef.
Well this all started when we were in choir and the song of the day was written by Frances Something. Now Frances Something decided to include her nickname, Fanny, in brackets, cuz u know... that might help ppl know who she is and all. And sime actually started the nickname Fanny Dong. He can make any nickname stick (Vances Tong and Franessa Day?). Zef made a few alteration to come up with Digger Dong.

Digger Dong came from his other creation... Gold Digger. Mmmm he knows me well. lol jokes... i think it was from the Logan Diggers scholarship i got last year. I remember the last time zef used my real name, during a prayer for praise and worship.

Zef: Dear God, i just wanna pray for everyone here, sven, em, umm (pause, thinks - whats her real name again?) frances.
Me: bahaha u called me frances!! u never call me that!
Zef: Yeah, well, at least God knows who i'm talking bout.

In primary ppl used to call be Daria (the depressed teenage girl cartoon) and Eeyore (the depressed donkey cartoon). I wasnt depressed at a young age, I just didnt express happiness lol. Plus my voice was a lot more mainly.

In my early years my mum used to call me "Eight Times the Ugly" in chinese. Cuz, calling me ugly wasnt enough to describe me, so it had to be multiplied by eight to give the full capacity. lol ahhhh asian parents.

anyways, just curious, if u have stories behind ur nicknames, please do share *thumbs up*

winter time

ahhhh winter is around the corner and it is gooooood. nothin better than snuggling in my pink fluffy robe. and that's not the only benefit when it comes to colder whether. It means that the guys will have to cover up. YEAH thats right... i'm afraid some guys have been revealing a little too much for my likin during the summer.

there should be an unwritten law of what guys should not wear.

Law 1. Guys should not wear short shorts. I mean ok ok if ur playing footy and u have a note.. I'll let u off... but if ur at uni and those pants just happen to ride higher than ur knees... uve crossed the line. Let's keep those muscular thighs on a no show

Law 2. Guys should avoid the tight tank tops. Yes i know i know... they accent the arms and all but it's just weird when i see guys wearing tops that i like... as in... something i would wear.

Law 3. actually thats pretty much it but u cant have a list of only two laws can u.


on an irrelevant topic... i'm gettin a little sick of crazy clarks. Everything is pretty repetative now... even the customer jokes. its gotten so bad that i can predict what the customers will say.

city noobs

Thank you to my anatomy lecturer who was too busy to lecture us today *two thumbs up* And since my lecture was cancelled I figured itd be a good day to go dress shopping with ness for Pen's wedding. NAAAWWWTTT!! Do we girls ever buy what we're meant to buy when we go shoppin?

But i'll tell u what i did buy.... a swimming cap. Yeah. It goes with my wedding outfit. anyways you know how labels normally say "ONE SIZE FITS ALL". Well this swimming cap company must have been Christian cuz they were pretty honest.



lol. It's like "errrr guys... maybe this cap really doesnt fit everyone... Like think about it... what if a few ppl on this earth have extraordinarily large heads." (not naming any names... sime.)

Happy birthday to sime btw *thumbs up*
What is with me and thumbs up now?

Me and ness shouldnt go to the city alone when we both have no clue where we're goin.

Me: I need to go to that place... and its like at the end... and its like... got buildings and shops and stuff.
Ness: *mental sigh* Broadway? Queens square? Winter Garden?
Me: Yeah.

after half an hour of walk back and forth aimlessly tryin to look for sumfin familiar we finally found our destination.... Macathur Central

Ness: macathur central sounds nothing like Winter Garden.
Me: Meh. Sounds the same to me.
*exchange unimpressed looks*

one day my friends... one day i will know my way around the city... and my own neighbourhood...
