gong hee fatt choy, everybody.

happy chinese new year, folks!!

you know how it's often perceived bad luck to owe other people stuff when chinese new year rolls around? well.. to ward off bad luck i'm listing down the things i owe people.. a pathetic effort, considering the SMALL, TINY, MINISCULE likelihood that i'll ever find all these people to return the things to, or even find the things i'm supposed to return.. but hopefully God will see my efforts and decide to reassure me that chinese new year superstitions aren't really real by sending me lots of good luck!! HAHAHA! haha.. ha. haha. heh heh.. uh.. heh. hmm.

well, i have to forewarn people who don't really know me to refrain from being too shocked by the sheer number of things owed, and people who really know me to refrain from sighing and clapping their hands to their forehead and shaking their heads in resignation.. i WILL RETURN YOUR STUFF. i promise.

okay. sooooo.. i owe:

gina: one white t-shirt, one yellow acjc t-shirt, one full set of gilmore girls' season four vcds, one full set of american juniors vcds and various other small, somewhat unimportant things that i have yet to return but cannot remember.
jamie: various coloured pens and highlighters. and a birthday present.
bert: one stevie wonder cd.
ju: one book entitled "Cherished" by Elizabeth Thornton that i never really read.
sihui: one dark blue highlighter, that i wouldn't really remember i borrowed if it weren't labeled "sihui".
dawn: one acjc drama t-shirt and one pair of brown shorts.
terence: one pair of grey checked shorts.
cheryl: one pair of olive green bermudas.
toshi: one set of japanese vcds which name i have forgotten.
my mother: my life, and one purple t-shirt.
my dad: an innumerable amount of money taken in little amounts of five and ten cent coins since i was four, from his bedside.
pam: a japanese comic which name i have forgotten, but is the number "three" in the series.
diona: a polly pocket set, and if i'm not wrong, a pair of tights that i borrowed in primary three. i'm hoping it hasn't been taken as a rag and used to clean windows yet.
luke: an outing. :o)
darcy: a couple of edited chapters.
shannon: a big apology.
siska: her alto-senior present which is STILL lying in my room fully wrapped.
josephine: her birthday present from three years ago which i promised i would get her but eventually forgot.
carmelita: a book which name i have also forgotten, but is lying in my bookcase somewhere.
my chinese tuition teacher: a chinese novel named "ai de chuan shuo", which, despite its cheesy name, was a brilliant read and very, very moving.
floppy: his precious, precious scissors. heh.
nenest: as of now, a great big hug, one black nike jacket, one khaki jacket, my sanity, and a pair of sunglasses that i can ASSURE YOU, is still around somewhere.

if you, and your stuff, are not mentioned in the above list, feel free to tag your complaints!

i will RETURN THESE ITEMS or die trying!

someday.
