Question: Is Jem truly outrageous?

After finishing 4 seasons of the office on DVD, I was looking for something new to watch and being ultra lazy to download the latest 5th season of The Office I spent a few days trolling Youtube. I stumbled upon a really old cartoon which I used to love - Jem and as the theme song suggests, it IS truly truly truly outrageous! I watched the first episode like 3 times but I was again too lazy to load the other episodes so I've been watching the opening theme sequence over and over again for the past few hours... Now I'm watching the opening themes of some really old shows ie: Thundercats, Power Rangers, My Little Pony, Double Dragon... you get the picture? I wish I was Jem! Then I'd be truly outrageous too!



THE MUSIC'S CONTAGIOUS! DAMN THE SONG IS STUCK IN MY HEAD!

WHOA!

Hello all you happy people! My last post was in June last year! I'm shocked and ashamed at myself... When I started this blog, I had dreams of becoming the next Kenny Sia! HAHA! What a joke! I now look back at that poor, deluded bugger that was the me of the past and shake my head at him the way you would shake you head at a stupid cat who decides to open a blogger account and then after posting 25 posts, abandons all hopes and dreams of becoming a famous internet personality. OH! Speaking of cats! Meow! Cats remind me of pussy! I wonder why? (thinks*). I'm such a thoughtful person, am I not? One more reason why everyone I know loves me. Che!

Here's an update of what has happened in my life through the past six months of my oh so unfortunate absence!

NOTHING!!!

Haha! That is, nothing except for the fact that I did horrendously badly in my A-levels exams and nearly died when I had to tell my parents what I got! And then I had to go through the ultra embarassment of being turned down by every universty I applied for through UCAS... OOOOH! I'm feeling nauseous even as I'm typing this!

I got a job at Italiannies as a host in which I was randomly scolded violently for eating the bread, making slightly wrong judgements, standing at the wrong places, standing at the right places(there is no right place to stand at Italiannies), failing an exam on the ingredients of food (you have no idea how many things you have to memorise!), failing an exam on the contents of drinks(memorising what goes into a cocktail is super hard when you have almost no knowledge of alcohol!), failing an exam on customer service (which they told me I didn't have to study for because it was common sense! BAH!), coming in 15 minutes late (even though there was a sign on the notice board that said that we had a 15 minute grace period) and etc and etc and etc by a FAT POMPOUS COW of a manager and in which I was threatened with PHYSICAL PUNISHMENT by a lesbian/female to male transexual who also happened to be my superviser and whom I thought did nothing but sit around and facebook on her crappy laptop all day. So, on a very bright and shiny Saturday, a week after a friend of mine had been fired for not coming in on his birthday (serves him right) I collected my pay, and was once again verbally accosted very rudely by the ever expanding blob for a very mild mistake which I can't remember, I decided I had had enough of all that stress! I didn't go to work that Sunday, AND I didn't go to work the Monday after that, and the Tuesday after that, and the Wednesday after that (I hope you get where I'm going with this!). Needless to say, I recieved many calls from the scary lesbian which I ignored religiously for fear of being slapped (which she threatened to do one time!). I think I was the worst host they'd ever had! TEE HEE! I'm glad I left though... I would have gone insane if I'd spent one more day in that mad house!

I've applied for a twinning degree in engineering at Taylor's which will begin in February. I was SO very thankful that they decided to take me in even with my frightful results! Yay! I can play with the cats that hang around the market again!

Lastly, its Chinese New Year again and I've been eating truck loads of mandarin oranges. They're just too yummy to resist(except for the yucky ones..)! I'm in love with mandarin oranges! I heart them more than I heart McDonalds! That is, until the very very painful problem that often arises from eating too many mandarin oranges overcomes my senses and I fall writhing on the floor... For those of you who remember my old blog and the post I wrote during Chinese New Year about 4 years back, you should know what to brace yourself for in the coming weeks:- a long whiny post on how I developed sembelit, took too many laxatives and shat green stuff till I fainted. Hopefully, this unfortunate event doesn't occur again but chances are they will as I still underestimate those tiny little yellow pills and refuse to believe that only one is enough to empty my bowels effectively and the lure of mandarin oranges are too strong to resist!,
