Happy June. :)
Woke up to the sound of drilling at 9am, which has been happening whenever I sleep at home these few days, though I got back to sleeping for the last weeks. Woke up to a quiet living room with only Grandma and Ching Ching. Others are either sleeping or in their rooms.
So I spent my morning with Ching Ching, being crazy with each other. She followed me everywhere and wanted what I did (eg: clipping up my hair). And then we danced and I taught her how to laugh a monotonous "ha ha ha" (in which she learnt and used when she reprimanded Mocha for biting clothes =.=). It sounded so weird coming from a small child.
Mom doesn't like our exposed forehead and wanted us to have fringe for some time now and we went and get it yesterday after the initial two saloons we went to were closing. Went to one in IOI Mall which we had never tried before. I was quite skeptical but then later it was nothing to be worried about. I still have haircut phobia since Nicolas from Infinity Coiffure handled my hair when I wanted it short. It didn't go as planned and I ended up feeling tearful.
Taka, my favourite stylist (from somewhere Ashley recommended), isn't working now as he is helping with his father's business. I like how he cuts our hair. ;_;
Yesterday's haircut was an impromptu decision and while I was wary, I was also really excited. I mean, if it turns out ugly, I could just clip them up until it grows out, but what if it looks okay?

Before
I have short-sightedness so I couldn't see how the stylist was doing lol. Even if I squint. I just don't want a too-short fringe with too much layering. If not will look like Chibi Maruko-chan.........
... and that's when we realize we looked 14.
Something felt complete, but something felt weird too. For a small moment when I first looked at myself in the full mirror, I thought it was perfect. The new hair matched my kiddish dressing style way more than my previous hair and I was happy.
The way sis and my hair was cut were different because it was cut by different people and each person has their own interpretation. I was a bit shocked to discover how short my fringe was compared to sis (I could see my eyebrows) but then later I thought it was funny because it made me look quirky lol. Maybe that person thought I was still in secondary school... or maybe he likes short fringe. It went well with me because I think it made me look like an even better, 'guai', student and for the orientation, I am going to look so good student.
When people said with fringe you can look younger, I never expected it to be so young. I look like when I was 14...
Once upon a time when I was 14, Mom straightened our hair for us sometimes for fun. I had fringe then too. Mom took a picture of me with that straightened hair and fringe (because our hair is a bit wavy and messy) and I remembered thinking how I liked it but couldn't possibly have that hairstyle for long as it would revert back to its original state after a hair wash.
But now, I happily realized, I became the girl I wanted to be aesthetically.
It wasn't to say I aimed for it - I actually forgot about it only to have the memory come back when I took pictures of myself and felt like I've seen this girl before. 14-year-old Fion, you can be glad now. :P
Now instead of being 5 years younger than Giang, we can be 10 years younger hahahahaha!
Just hope the fringe works out this time. At least with the straight hair now, it's more bearable.
Haven't told anyone yet about this. I think if Giang comes and visit the orientation ("I will definitely come if I can make it" by his own words), it would take some time for him to locate me hmmm. This will be fun.
Went out on an outing with sis, Lay Si , Sherron and Li Ying yesterday! It had been so long since the five of us met up! I am relieved that even though we chose different paths now our personality hasn't changed. Honestly I think everyone look prettier already. Let me clarify; everyone will look more pretty/handsome after secondary school. Well at least according to my observation. :)
I think sis and I changed the most in the sense of behaviour. We weren't so timid like last time because uni offers a lot of outlet to grow and be brave. For that, I am glad. And I realized we are more daring in our dressing then we used to. It is fun actually, to explore what you like and just wear what you want hahaha. FCM's influence? Hmmm.
Ching Ching is so bored that she starts talking to herself for entertainment (like she always do). Her smile is so cute ugh. Today for some reason, both her eyes are kinda puffy. :/ One eye is pinkish, which I think she fell on, but that doesn't explain why both eyes are puffy.
Btw, the hostel people doesn't allow sis and I to put in the grouping list with our names only (so they can insert the 3rd roomie by their likes). =.= We were supposed to group with Wan Ping, but she registered under club and everyone who registered under clubs were strangely not approved, like Giang. And Eli, Panda, my roommates,... I don't understand why it wasn't done properly as they had done the previous years.
So I guess me and sis had to be separated and then try requesting for the grouping again when the sem starts, if we found a third roomie by ourselves by then. Having new roommates are nice but then it would be really inconvenient for sis and I to be living so far from each other. *sigh*
I hope if we really weren't allow to change, I would have good roomies. A sweet FCM junior would be cool as well, or a really cool senior. I just can't stand people who are hermits or unhygienic or too loud or inconsiderate or strangely suspicious - you get the idea.
