the importance of ic numbers.
I think the most useful piece of information you can ever acquire from your parents is their IC number. It truly gives you alot of freedom and independence in what you do, and you don't always have to ask their permission to do things. LOL. So since I was twelve, I've memorised both my parents' IC numbers and it has come in handy many times. For example, when you need to add channels on your cable television subscription. My dad is a real miser when it comes to the channels on cable, and the only thing we have at home are the news channels (which only he watches) and a few measly entertainment channels. (Well, we used to have many more channels, then he decided that he needed to cut cost.) Because I'm home this whole week for my one week recess break, I NEED THE TV. So being the independent, only daughter of his with the knowledge of his IC number, I call the cable television people and happily add the sports channels, and the Hong Kong drama channel to the subscription, also increasing his cable television bill by $22 every month. Of course, I did inform him AFTER I did it, and I told him I'll foot the extra charge. But knowing me, and knowing him, we'll all forget about the extra charge which I owe him. Haha. :) Having a daughter like me probably isn't too good for your current account.
Went for Ling's surprise birthday dinner tonight at Pizza Hut which her boyfriend, John planned for her. Really sweet boyfriend she's got, and could tell she was truly surprised and that she enjoyed herself tremendously. So happy for her, at least her last birthday here in Singapore for the next three years at least, was memorable. Then later on, April, Sarah and I went to East Coast Park's Coffee Bean to chill, cos April had use of her car! I love people who drive... Haha, I'm just kidding, just remember, I WAS your friend BEFORE you owned the car. SIGH. I'm sad though, this coming week is going to be the last week the four of us can hang out together, at least for the next year cos Ling's not coming back for an entire year. We're going to be split up, after the five years of amazing friendship, two of them are going to be in separate continents altogether! :( At least I'll still have Rah though...
The next week's going to be so packed, but despite the horrible workload and projects, this last week the four of us have together is probably going to be a week I'll remember for life. Because after this week, whether we like it or not, things are going to change.
