Book of the day: Dairy Queen by Catherine Gilbert Murdock
I went to the library to grab some books last night. Ok a lot of books. ! got ten. :D Cos I borrowed my sister's 2 books. Dairy Queen is super funny. Not going to explain the book la. Just go borrow it. The picture is a cow in a crown. The book has a lot of cows cos her family lives on a farm..she doesn't want to be a cow in a sense, because cows do everything their owners make them do,in this case they get milked. Anyway, she realizes that she shouldn't be like a cow just doing what her family tells her to even when she doesn't want to do it but she should do what she wants (in a good way) and she decides to join the football team (not soccer) and blah blah.. This book has a lot more than cows. I'll rate it 3.5 :)
Went to help cask for donations for the Christian outreach for the disabled. It was really depressing to see how stingy Singaporeans can get. And how the only people who donate are
A. with kids
B. elderly
C. tourists (some can get really rude but some are really nice)
And occasionally some teenagers and middle-aged people. But I got quite a lot of people to donate :D And we slacked for 1/2 hour (shh..) Esther, Rina and I. We went to the food centre and I bought char kway tiao! And a bowl of longan jelly thing. Before going back to work. We were at Bugis. The human traffic was quite heavy. :D Thats all I did today. Collected donations, read my book and here I am. SJC tomorrow. Haven't really gotten all the steps! :/ And the sucky costume.. BLAHH. And its like superdeedoper (influenced by Kezia) expensive for such an ugly piece of clothing. $20.
