My mum's a superwoman. =) She's strong! In the morning, she managed to move her king'-size bed (complete with a superheavy mattress and bulky wooden bedframe) into another position all by herself. How does she do it? I tried pulling at the whole bed..can't even move it one bit. Oh well, knowing my mum, she will and can move almost everything. Otherwise, how will she keep the whole house so spick and span until the floor squeaks under our feet? Sometimes it's so clean, we want to levitate so we won't dirty the floor again. *grins. Ah..but I have learnt the art of cleaning the floor too!

Just after I woke up, my mum told me to occasionally try the grad nite dress we bought on last sunday. She says that I had better see whether I have grown too fat for it - within 4 days. I tried the dress again, and no, I haven't grown fat yet. (Hope I don't during the exam period. I suppose stress will burn off any won't it?) Even if she hadn't told me to put it on, I would have done so anyway. I absolutely love that dress! It's really beautiful! =) I love its bluish-emerald green shade and its frills. Come to think of it, it looks like one of those dresses that Hollywood actresses wear. So that was what my mum meant by a grad dress not made of the usual satin material. She didn't want me to wear a satin dress. She said it would make me look like a bridesmaid and I got this dress! Made of 100% pure silk (poor silk worms), it definitely didn't come in cheap. $230. My heart nearly stopped when I heard that price and it was already discounted. (poor papa's too, I think.) As a consolation, I know I am not going to buy another of this sort of dress for many-a-year. I don't have to because it's lovely. I am wearing for JC grad nite too, two years down the road. That is, if I keep my figure.=) Thank you papa and mama! (and God too!)
