highly literary, with occasional grammar slips
who wants to be employed now?because of my unemployment for the past ahem, 3 weeks (gasp! i didn't even realize!), i have found the perfect way (okay, maybe a few) to wile my time away. unemployment can be fun too!other than going overseas which will really hurt the wallet, most of the recommendations would be less intense on the purse strings. and surprise surprise, sometimes the best things are for free; meaning you don't need to have moolah to have fun!
as most of you would have read, my violent and in my sister's words,
neurotic craving for cheesecake got the better of me one afternoon. so i decided to google it. i did not find a lot of images of cheesecake, but i did stumble into the place i will probably be spending the next 3 months in. i hereby officially declare this website to be the second best worldly/material/secular thing other than The Great Cheesecake! you find out every details of restaurants, food and lo and behold, CHEAP food! just as well, i don't have to keep introducing
sun with moon as the best restaurant in town.
i have been telling everybody about this website ever since my wrecked varsity friend, vanessa ruined my life with it. now i am going to ruin everybody else's. shucks. call me names all you want, i am telling you this website is a treasure trove for movie buffs (and who doesn't want to spend moolah at the movie theatres) like me! it has EVERYTHING. i watched all the movies i had wanted to but didn't get the chance to on this website! i am going to watch more, more, more! well, hopefully i will get to do so before i like get jailed for introducing this on my blog. but i don't really think so since i highly suspect that only i read my blog.
3. do housework (and you thought i surfed all day long right)
this is one activity that will never ever run out for you to do! i can run out of restaurants to surf, movies to watch, but never this. i have decided - it is good to do housework. especially when you live with my sister, doing housework is like a great work out session. i will have to warn boys who do not like housework to flee from my sister, go as far as you can. back to working out, i perspire like nonsense after washing the dishes, clearing the bedroom and folding the clothes. and because my house is so chores-unfriendly, i end up working out from head to toes (yes, even my little toe when i try to pick up the socks without using my hands)!
4. count money
i have this big piggybank for coins which i have saved since jc2. i would say, it contains a substantial amount of $1, $0.50 and $0.20! when i am bored, i will just count and count and count. i know, i am such a loser. but hey, counting round little moolahs trains my mathematics brain which is almost non-existent after secondary school! what's more fun and educational than counting coins? if you don't have as substantial an amount as mine, just count more times and see if they tally. if not, count until they do. trust me, coins are tricky little creatures you can't get them right! see, another half day spent on useful and meaningful things!
5. pretend you are dead while lying on the bed
this is the best activity to do, that's why i leave it at the end! the best way to feel alive is actually to play dead; then you will just realize how alive you really are. and when you feel like this is getting a little chim for you, just play dead. see, zilch use of brain power! this activity usually lasts a few hours for me. and boy, it gets more fun right after a heavy meal!
