Sunday

Last week, my parents decided to beautify the garden by replanting the grasses at our backyard with carpet grass. Believe it or not, they did it all by themselves, WITHOUT HIRING any helpers as our maid was away at my uncle's place with my grandma. So, they had a tough time clearing the wild wild grass that has been growing on our backyard for years. After the clearance, they replenished some soil and river sand before replanting pieces of carpet grass. It took my parents one whole week to complete the task. My mum also planted some flowers.. red, pink and white ones and a bamboo tree to enhance the landscaping. :) So our garden now looks much neater.. ta-daa....

On Friday, when school dismissed and as we were about to set home , Zhao Min's father could not start his car. Guess what ? The car's battery went flat !! So we waited opposite the school while Zhao Min's father called AAM. It took the AAM guy about 20mins to arrive =( me, ZM and Tammy fooled around, chatted leisurely and watched people dance in a nearby studio( as the windows were widely opened) It took quite a while for the AAM guy to discover that the battery problem. When it was all done, we got into the car and thought oh..finally it was all over~ but then the car had another problem! This time the power steering was not working. Oh No!!! The AAM guy had left the scene. So Zhao Min's father had to call AAM again and he was asked to drive to AAM's workshop. The car's air-cond wasn't functioning and it was stuffy. So we opened the windows to grasp for polluted air. After reaching the workshop, we had to wait for another 30 mins for the technician to fix the car. Then Tammy's father turned up to fetch me and Tammy home as we were supposed to attend BM tuition that night. It was about 9:05pm when we reached home so we did not make it to tuition that evening. Missed tution again ....3rd time this month as we did not have classes for the past two weeks. =( It could be a blessing in disguised as i managed to catch up the good old times with zhao min and tam. It's been ages since we last chatted.
