oh the benefits of still looking like an adolescent... haha. i'm alone at home and the doorbell rings. the young man smiles: hi are your parents home? ..blablahblah home insurance blablah recent burglary in the area.. pass this brochure to your parents and ask them if they're interested. blablahblah.. we'll come back again... how do i address your parents?

haha. tt didn't take much effort. i got rid of pesky insurance agents simply by having a face tt says "i can't make legally binding decision without my parents' consent". of course, i can imagine the countless situations in which this will work against me but for right now, it's quite funny. on second thought, it might also be the fact tt it's 5 in the evening and i'm at home. but then i could've been a hsewife (which WOULD be legally possible...). and it's also funny cos tt insurance guy could've easily been younger than me. haha. it's funny how much pple assume. maybe i should've told them sorry i can't talk right now, i gotta go pick my son from sch. haha.



i feel exceedingly cool when i like what i'm wearing. it's not tt i didn't already know this, but my good mood on wed seemed to affirm this really strongly and so i had to write it dwn. i guess i was happy also cos my little french boy's mother very proudly told me after tuition tt he had gotten back his report card and he got the highest mark in his eng class. come to think of it, i duno whether she meant he topped the class or tt the highest grade on the card came frm eng. but watever it was, she was really happy and so was he. and then i thought tt it was prob the reason why he'd been so much more talkative during the lesson. i'm so proud of him, my little french kid {:oD i think it really helps tt his parents have a fantastic attitude towards learning eng and going out often to explore spore. and it helps tt they don't have a car so they're forced to take public transport and he gets exposed to more pple than the average expat kid would be. so anyway, in other semi-fantastic news, une madame a vu ma petite annonce au LFS et elle voudrait que je donne des cours à ses 2 gars. chuis pas certaine si je pourrai me débrouiller; g bcp de responsabilité... celta, les autres étudiants, vox, l'église, mon groupe musical qui n'a pas encore un nom.. mais enfin, je l'ai dit d'accord. 70/h pour les deux... je souhaite qu'on habite pas trop loin des autres.
