Today, I noticed a note beside the computer screen.

It was something my mother had written, and it read


"Ken, Mon 14/08
11.45pm
Toothbrush needs to be charged for 24 hrs!! (she did this in bubble writing)
Can only be used at 12 midnight 2morrow."


And i was quite amused!

But then again. It was no surprise really. A new trend has hit the Wong household! A trend in the form of Oral B's electronic toothbrush!

It started when my aunties came over from Australia. Both armed with their magic 2 minute teeth polishing mechanisms, that caused quite a commontion. I remember while watching TV one day, and my aunt and mother were engaged in a serious conversation about the ability of this wonder whizzer. Interesting. Apparently it beeps after you use it for 2 minutes! How functional! You can use it as a clock too.

The next night, my mother came back with an Oral B electronic toothbrush for my father (since she stole the one my dentist gave to me). It was quite a fascinating thing. My father enjoyed using it, saying his teeth have never felt so clean and that it was fun to use. I bet he secretly thought they were hip. And dads with hip toothbrushes are hip too. And hip dads have hip daughters. Thus i am hip.

My brother and i told my mother that we wanted an Oral B electronic toothbrush too.

Because they were on sale, my mother got them for us yesterday. We couldn't use it yet though! Those little dare devils need to be charged, if you remember the note. So right now infront of me theres a blue, orange and white toothbrush. Sitting in its little seat thing and storing electricity. I must agree that its quite a fun thing. I find myself glancing at it every now and then. Which i must admit is quite weird.

Although my brother did say something even weirder when i came into the study though. I was about to log in to my account when he said to me,


"Michelle, restrain yourself from pressing the button."
"What button?"
"The button on my toothbrush."
"Why would i press the button on your toothbrush?!"
"I don't know. Maybe sometimes you have itchy fingers. Like i've been trying to restrain myself from pressing it the entire night. Because sometimes, its just so tempting."
"You didn't have to tell me you know! I wouldn't have even thought of it!"
"Just don't touch my toothbrush."


And the only reason why i said i wouldn't have even thought about it, is because i was thinking about it now. That stupid button. Its just too fun. Last night i kept pressing it to turn it on and pressing it to turn it off. My dads one not my brothers. Its that "brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" sound it makes. Its like, "brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" *stop* "brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" *stop* "bbbbbrrrrrrRRRRRRRRRRR". Don't blame me its addictive.

We're also all getting a bit over protective, i must admit. My aunty charges her toothbrush religiously every night, i bet my brothers only going to brush his teeth at 12, and i, well i'm looking forward to being able to use my electronic toothbrush. Oh how this little piece of machinery is going to change my life! It'll probably scrub away all my worry. Along with all the ucky guck. Now see, what did i say about it being functional? Teeth cleaner, worry washer, next thing you know it'll help you get a date at the annual Oral B convention.


With a dentist!(#*@^!!


This reminds me. I must go visit my dentist and give her some kueh lapis. I haven't seen the lady in months and i'm sure she'll like some.

HAHAHA nah just kidding! I was supposed to make an appointment last month to see her, but i forgot. And i haven't exactly remembered to call her this month either. Or ok actually i have remembered, just that every time i remembered, it was always too late to call. Again, don't blame me. Times a jerk and waits for no man. Even though i am female. Lets not get into that.

I really should make the appointment though. Who knows how far away my teeth have moved since my last visit. The after effects of braces is what it is.



Maybe she can help me get a discount on an electronic toothbrush.

Michelle went "Hey macadamia" :)

Michelle went "Hey macadamia" :)

Ok that one was just for showing off.

And by the way, you have no idea how many times i've had to edit my post today. BLOGSPOT. I'M YELLING AT BLOGSPOT!

I have so much i want to type about my adventure today.

But i don't know why i feel so funny.

It was something about a Malibu beach house,
Ponggol Seventeenth Avenue,
An Alaskan Husky,
Potato salad,
Macbeth,
Strange encounters,
Green parrot that i didn't know could talk,
Becoming best friends,
When you're suddenly insecure again,
Talking to the parrot,
Documenting in sketch,
Failed attempts to sketch,
Another failed attempt to sketch,
First page of Macbeth,
Annoying purring of the parrot,
First page of Macbeth,
Annoying purring of the parrot,
Growling from the husky,
Annoying purring of the parrot,
Fear,
Conquering,
Bigger pictures,
Two new friends,
Attack by a Jack Russel and another,
No eraser,
Of bathrooms,
And embarrassing moments,
Being found out,
And little white lies,
First page of Macbeth,
Sleeping parrots,
Distractions,
Second page of Macbeth,
Distractions,
It stared at me,
I tried to study,
Dogs with no paws,
How do paws look like?
Now or nevers,
Watching TV,
I tried to study,
15 minutes,
Dessert,
Potato salad,
Third page of Macbeth,
and welcome to Malaysia!

Its alright if you don't understand any of that, and you really shouldn't because they might seem misleading right now. They're just random thought-phrases used to label moments.

I don't know why i feel so funny.

I don't know why i feel so mad at myself.

Michelle went "Hey macadamia" :)
