heard of the "Pareto's Principle", which is also called the 80-20 rule?
it states that 80% of effects come from 20% of the causes.
therefore to make things more effective, we have to focus on the 20%, which is more impt than that 80%.
FOR EXAMPLE,
80% of the people only wear 20% of the clothes in the closet.
i am in that 80% of the population, and so i decided to pack my wardrobe! :D
its nothing great, but one who hasn't cleared and packed her wardrobe since a long long time, IT'S A GREAT DEAL.
in the packing process, i sneezed and sniffed and coughed (too dusty already).
i found many many pieces of clothings i used to wear when i was YOUNG, as young as primary 6.
yes, sister was amazed, so am i!
packed a stack of unworn clothes for the garung guni.
another stack i cant bear to throw for my youngest sis.
all those for her, used to be my favourite.
that's abt it, my wednesday afternoon gone like that.
ps: i've never felt so organised and neat for a long long time.

has been a week since i updated.
so happening nowadays. hahaha.
laptop reformatted, so not used to the speed.
THANK YOU YOU :D
this whole week, EXCITING.
like WHOOHOOHOOHOO!
i am having some long break before school starts, yet i feel like a part time domestic helper (sounds much better than maid. haha)
it's a daily routine:
- wake up, start msg-ing.
- nua on the bed until i feel like washing up
- make tea to drink
- eat breakfast (skip this part if i only find bread)
- watch dvd (that is if that remote control works... cos i cant fast forward it to the part i stopped at if remote control doesnt cooperate)
- cook / buy lunch for smallest sooi
- bring smallest sooi down to wait for school bus (what typical or-ba-sang or maids have to do)
- go home
- see what mummy instructed me to do before she leaves house (ranging from vacuuming floor, mopping floor, pack clothes, etc ----> really like maid)
- continue dvd-ing if remote control still cooperates
- wait for everyone to come home
- go for dinner
- online after dinner (tummy gets rounder like that D:)
- msg msg msg
- sleep (zzz)
the week goes on like this.
BUT i am still quite enjoying it. HAHA
anyway, my desktop now looks like this:

so clean.
the 2 birds so cute. hahaha.
wallpaper used to be a monster (RAH), but ai ya, quite sian.
CHANGE TO BIRDS.
reminds me of this nursery rhyme:
Two little dicky birds sitting on a wall,
One named Peter, one named Paul.
Fly away Peter, fly away Paul,
Come back Peter, come back Paul!
One named Peter, one named Paul.
Fly away Peter, fly away Paul,
Come back Peter, come back Paul!
so, is the pink one Peter or Paul?

NUA DAY #1
today was the first day of nuaing.
felt shiok, but i feel like a housewife somehow.
vegetables and the oven became my companion.
television remote control was my best friend.
even though there was nothing on tv, i just kept switching, hoping there's sth exciting.
in the end i watched "Make me a supermodel" DVD.
whoa exciting. the winner emerged, she deserved to win!
YESSSS~
went running, after so long of not exercising (like perspiring alot and heart beating at 117 bpm)
it was tiring, but i felt a greeeaaattt sense of accomplishment, i didnt run many many, but it just felt like i ran alot. feels like it. feels great. :D :D
i feel like running everyday, but i heard kneecap will spoil D: omg.
so perhaps i go run on alternate days. PERHAPS.
i need to motivate myself. else, i will become an ahhhhhh buiiiiii.
no no i dont want. D:
alright, dinner time, time to replenish the energy and fats burnt just now. heh.
have a niceeee dayyyy!
