flour or flower? same, same but different: the twins' birthday

Went to La Porchetta and San Churro's to celebrate our favourite twins' birthdays. I'm gonna keep this entry short and succinct because exams are only a week away, and I'm supposed to be cramming! *Runs in circles*

So in keeping with the spirit of summarising- of which I have been doing a lot of -I'm gonna dotpoint;
- First and foremost, I'd like to use this opportunity to raise the issue of table etiquette. There was a certain person, he-who-shall-not-be-named's arch enemy, decided it would be appropriate to procure a set of cardiovascular notes from his satchel and proceed to study. Hahaha. Imagine a ruffled-haired guy complaining about the dim lighting in the restaurant as he squints over his notes. Suffice to say, he was subject to exclusion multiple times throughout the dinner, hahaha.
- One thing about having Singaporean/Malaysian friends, is that you quite often get intense debate over the right pronunciation of words. In the past, it was aged. Age-d, or a-jed? Last night's example was flour. Flower or fla? What would you rather? The soft, flowing tones of flower, or the harsh, nasally sounds of fla? I know which one Nigella Lawson would use. Hahahah ;D
- Speaking of flowers, I made a spring themed card for the twins. Unfortunately the double-sided tape that I'd bought for $2, performed at its value, so it was continually falling apart :(.



True to my spirit of summarising, the concise dotpoints I was supposed to make in this post are not so concise.

Although I'm freaking out over how I'm going to cover 3 semesters of work over a week, I've tried to keep my ranting about it here to a minimum. So if you're reading this, and thinking how carefree the author sounds, I'm really not! :(

Ps: I'm saying my goodbyes to Aan soon.
