My craving for Magnum has finally been satisfied! Ever since I saw that nice commercial, I felt like having a Magnum, and that was weeks ago! I was tempted several times to satisfy that craving with normal, lousy ice-cream but I resisted. It was worth the wait, the dark chocolate shell was so rich and the ice-cream was so creamy. I feel a little guilty now because it was more ice-cream than I could take. I started feeling ill 3/4 the way through my ice-cream, but I couldn't waste it! I'm happy that I got to eat my Magnum, though, it's a once-in-a-blue-moon kind of thing, like Mcdonald's. I haven't had Macs in more than half a year!
So far, no ice-cream I've eaten has beaten Ben & Jerry's "Cherry Garcia" to the top of my list.

My hair is starting to look a little unkempt. Help! I can't cut it for 2 reasons. One would be that I double-pierced my left ear a month ago and nobody in this house has spotted it. More than twice I forgot to take off my hairband in front of them and they still didn't spot it. Oh, well, nothing much to see until I put rings in there, so maybe it's a good thing. Second would be that I don't know what my next hairstyle should be.

My hair has gone through so much in the past few months, you know? I've cut it twice, put dreadlocks in them twice (not to mention the taking-out part, which is probably more harmful than putting them in!). I want something different, but neat and cool. Cool being the opposite of uncool.
I thought of the mushroom-cut, like the one on Negishi from the "Detroit Metal City" movie! (search it on Google images!) It looks really cute, with straight bangs and everything! I've never had straight bangs before, I think it would be an interesting change. The hairstyle is meant to make someone look idiotic and child-like, you know? I think it would be pretty cool, like a rebellious thing. I might as well try something different now since I have no social life whatsoever. Better now than when I go back to school next year!
Apart from that, I've thought of a pixie-cut. A short, fluffy hairstyle, preferebly with no long fringe poking me in the eyes. It would make me look pretty normal, though, I don't really like blending in too much. How about CURLY HAIR?!
I'll post a pic of it when blogger allows me to, but for now, I'll leave it to your imagination. Strange thing is, I've always wanted curly hair. Not wavy, curly. Franco has them! I think short curly hair would look cute and would be a nice change from my boring straight hair. It's so lifeless, it doesn't even get tangles in it! I haven't combed them for more than 2 months now and they are still knot-free. I don't even own a comb now. I want hair with personality!!! I shall put my dreadlocks back in, in a few years. Must resist temptation for now, too high-maintenance and I don't have the time.

Had tuition this morning, but spent my entire afternoon doing Social Studies, so I feel less guilty and a little more well-balanced now. Nothing like studying SS to make me despise society and politics. You should see the crap they argue over!
TV was really boring because I'd already watched the "Simpsons" episodes they screened today, so came online to play Runescape again. This game-playing thing is really good for me, it's where I get my motivation to study. The mere routine of the game is enough to make anyone yearn for something more important and substantial. Going to take a shower, and then do some Art while waiting for my hair to dry. Then, I'll crash onto my pillow and not awake until the next morning. I cannot believe people around me are complaining about their lives. Surely having a tough life is better than having no life at all?

I awoke with a jolt this morning at the sudden thought of spending my $40 shopping voucher on scrap-booking items instead of using it to pay part of my running shoes (which I've been wanting to get for months now but haven't). V and I went to the over-priced scrap-booking shop at Plaza Singapura the other day. One stamp averages $20! It's amazing how they cheat people of their money. It's just plain rubber, moulded from a cast, no ink whatsoever. I know I shouldn't be stupid and be cheated of my money either, but they're really beautiful stamps. No, there shouldn't be any "buts". $1.26 can feed an entire family of 6 people for a week! I shall check out "Art Friend" when I go to Bugis sometime, but shopping should be the last thing I'm thinking of.
