booboos

alright..so i wore an office skirt to the technical assessment in ntu today. i thought i would be ok..

the culprit....

i modified my skirt during my (boon lay - eunos) mrt ride. after sitting stiffly in the ntu LT for like 3 hrs, the plastic mrt seat and 45 min ride didn't make for the most comfortable time in the world. so i crossed my right leg over left, uncrossed, left over right, uncrossed....and so on. when i finally was able to get up at eunos, i thought something was wrong. hmm... the skirt seems to be restricting my stride even more than before! after feeling around (discreetly!) for a while, i found out that my side zipper slit has moved all the way to my back! gosh gosh.....
and then i tried to move the skirt back, hoping NOBODY on that semi-crowded train noticed. ugh..

THEN, i almost fell flat on my face when i boarded the bus. i had forgotten about my new skirt-imposed smaller stride and my front leg couldn't reach the step. i panicked a little and pushed really hard with my back leg. imagine, my back leg tiptoeing on the kerb and my front leg is stepping on air.....
thankfully i managed to get on ok. (and i had to re-adjust the #%#% skirt coz the stupid zipper moved again!)

i was a lot more cautious when i got off. for those few seconds, i had to say byebye to literally hopping off the bus (my usual way).

stoopid skirt.

anyway, thankfully there wasn't any brayton cycle or corrosion problem in the test. there was a two-line question on each page, 4 questions in all. shear force & bending moment diagrams, how an aerofoil generates lift, how microstructures affect material properties and the costs involved in the life cycle of a car. i don't think i did well, but i don't feel too lousy either.

yay! not gonna have to wear the !$@#%@ skirt for commencment tm! hehe... pants rule!!!!

you've got to find what you love

yeah..sometimes skirts are a pain. Mine go round and round too. So if u see me holding my side when I'm wearing a skirt, u know why :P haha. it's also good to buy skirts that are uniform (ie no obvious front/back) so that even if they go round and round, no one will notice :P
anyway, it's a good sign that your skirt moves coz it means that you can afford to grow fatter. haha. either that or ur skirt is too big :P

oh yes, my skirt is "uniform". i always thought that the zipper should be at the back, not at the side. hehe.. maybe i subconsciously turned it around..heheh =P

ok i've heard "ur skirt is too big" 3 times since this post. =) but it's size 5! and it's tight when i sit down. =(

yl: looking at the "culprit"..it seems like there shld be sufficient space for u to move ard comfortably leh..cos it looks a-lined..so bottom is bigger n thus more space to enable u to have a bigger stride? haha
