The One That Got Away - Katy Perry

Summer after high school when we first met
We make out in your Mustang to Radio head
And on my 18th birthday we got matching tattoos

Used to steal your parents' liquor and climb to the roof
Talk about our future like we had a clue
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you

In another life I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
In another life I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away

I was dreaming you were my Johnny Cash
Never one without the other, we made a pact
Sometimes when I miss you, I put those records on, whoa

Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Saw you downtown singing the blues
It's time to face the music, I'm no longer your muse

In another life I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
In another life, I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away

The one, the one, the one
The one that got away

All his money can't buy me a time machine, no
Can't replace you with a million rings, no
I should've told you what you meant to me, whoa

'Cause now I pay the price

In another life I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
In another life, I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away

The one, the one, the one, the one

And in another life I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away

It's time to face the music, I'm no longer your muse/ <3

Everything is changing within a blink of an eye.

Sometimes I feel I'm stuck in limbo.

Hey guys! Guess whattttt?

I HAVE GRADUATED!!!

I have completed *counts* 15 freakin years of education. ohmygod?!

I just attended my university convocation 2 days ago. It was a huge mix of emotions. I am so happy I can say I finally made it. It was heartwarming looking at my parents who looked so happy they finally saw their first kid through university. (It wasn't an easy task for them cuz I was a freakin hell rebellious kid last time.) But at the same time I still feel like I'm not ready to 'grow up' and leave school.

School is the place whereby you make mistakes and then you learn from them. But now, in society and in the real world, you make mistakes and you get screwed by them. School is also the place where you find the bestest friends in life. This I'm MOST thankful for :))

It is really fast. Time really flies. I was so looking forward to starting uni, and then now I'm already done with it. These 3 years in NBS are really the best in my life. I loved my experience so much I wouldn't wanna trade anything for it.

Some piccies to show you guys!

Time really flies and with the passing of time, many things change. Certain things I thought was definitely gonna stay certain didn't stay that way 3 years later. There were good times and there were bad ones, but I've learnt that what matters most is always the present. It doesn't matter what the end results turn out to be, as long as you know you made the best out of what you have now.

XOXO
I love you, NBS!

Hi! I'm back from my Taiwan grad trip! Haha actually have been back since 2 weeks ago but whatever.

Taiwan was awesome! The food was fantastic, and the people were generally very niceeee. Shopping in Taipei is one kind of a crazy. I bought like 27 tops, 9 pairs of shorts, 5 pairs of shoes and 4 bags, among (many) other things.

Some selected piccies out of a total of about 400+!

Just reached Taoyuan airport!

Taking the High Speed Rail to Kaohshiung.

With my epic ticket that made us almost miss our train! We bought the tickets separately and I was the last to pay, and I took my change and receipt and left the ticket at the counter! The weird thing was, the woman didn't call me back immediately to take the ticket, I mean, how long does one take to realize there was an unclaimed ticket at your own counter?? Instead she passed the ticket to another counter, called Customer Service or something.

Then we went for lunch, and about 8 mins before boarding, I somehow decided to check where my ticket was. And horror of horrors I CAN'T FIND IT!!! The girls tried to help me find all over but mei you jiu shi mei you. Panicking, (cuz the ticket not cheap lor) we ran back to the counter, who directed us to Customer Service, who wanted to check everyone's tickets first to verify that I really was the owner of that unclaimed ticket.

In all that frenzy and hurry Cho's luggage almost fell on her and we all almost died but anyway that didn't happen, so.

Okay, pic:

Our Kaohshiung hotel. A pretty nice place!

Breakfast was provided everyday! Simple fare cooked by an auntie, but tasted damn heavenly please.

Random pic of this plate of shui jiao that looks ordinary, but was the bestest-tasting shui jiao E.V.E.R. It was in this ye shi in Kaohshiung (I forgot the name!).

The next day we went to Kenting. Alot of people kept saying how marvellous and awesome it was, but to be really honest, I think that place was pretty meh~~

I guess the main attraction was all the nice scenery spots, but seriously, I'm not a scenery kinda person HAHA. The only thing I enjoyed there was the water sports. Damn fun! I screamed until wanna die HAHAHA.

Scenic pics:

This pic I likey!

Kenting has pretty good food though! We had this mini lobsters thingy for lunch, not bad! Considering I could eat it despite my intense hatred for prawns and lobsters.

And there was this bao shop that is apparently quite famous one, with alot of interesting fillings inside their baos. The girls loved it, but I thought ok only leh HAHA.

The next day we went sight-seeing.

First stop: Fo Guang Shan! I'm not a sight-seeing person but I liked that place! It was huge and peaceful, and there was free lunch ROFL.

There were alot of those teachings in Chinese written on boards all over the place. This is my fave!

The free vegetarian lunch that was damn yummy!

My loot at the end of 4 days in Kaohshiung!

We went Taichung next! Our hostel! It was comfy but small.

Random pic of this damn good baked potato with bacon and cheese inside! Omg I'm dying for it nowwwww.

Next day: theme park! Haha we went to this Yamay theme park which consisted of a dry park and a wet park. The dry park rides were pretty meh~~ Only one ride was worth it, this off-track roller coaster that brings you to the edge, stops the train, starts tilting you until you're 90degrees on top then suddenly releases you. Only Pris and I went for it!

The wet park was good though. The slides were crazily high and scary. There was this one slide I took that I thought I was gonna die! It was so high and so fast that I couldn't really feel the slide on my back, all I felt was water! Like aqua-planning liddat LOL.

Us!

After theme park we wanted to visit this Zhonghua ye shi. We stopped at the Taichung main railway station (they don't have the metro there, mad wtf one), and the people there told us walk can reach the ye shi already.

MEGA TALK COCK OK. We walked like one freakin hour?!?! Somemore when we found it, the ye shi was damn wtf one. Totally NOTHING there.

Ok at least dinner there was good la. In Taiwan you randomly find one stall eat also good one!

We walked even further to another shopping district, Yizhong. That day really walk until siao man.

And I did my nails! Damn cheap there manicure S$4??

Then we travelled to Taipei after 3 days in Taichung!

Our first hostel in Taipei.

I said first because we didn't stay there throughout our stay in Taipei.

Because we GOT CHASED OUT!!! Freakin horrible place ok. It's called Everybody's Hostel. DON'T GO THERE!

The owner is a crazy woman. The story began like this:

The hostel has this set of rules whereby from 11pm onwards it was supposed to be 'quiet' time, meaning we have to keep our volume down inside the place after 11pm la. But as your very typical tourists in Taiwan, where do you think we would go at night?

YES, the night markets. Like duh right! Those are the highlights of Taiwan! So everytime we'd return past 12 midnight, and then this very anal neighbour of ours got very pissed. He's this angmoh guy, and he looks younger than us. We guess he's a student there in Taipei. So anyway, he accused our plastic bags of making too much noise -.- Seriously! We already tried to keep our talking volume down, and there he was complaining about our plastic bags. Wasn't our fault that bags made noise and the soundproofing sucked right. He told us rudely(he just opened our door without knocking and YES THE DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED, SO DON'T GET FOOLED BY UNTRUE PICTURES OF THIS HOSTEL ON THE NET!!) that if we wanted to make noise we should go stay in a hotel. Damn wtf, if HE cannot stand noise then HE should go stay in a hotel!

So anyway he childishly kept our hairdryers and switched off our lights while we were bathing. Because the water sounds kept him awake (wtf right!!). And the next day, he told the owner about the whole story(his side la). And at first we thought we could reason with the owner about the whole matter, but alas, the owner blatantly sided with that guy! It could be because they were both angmohs, and also that maybe the guy as a more permanent resident paid her more, so he was a 'bigger' customer in that sense.

Then the owner came to talk to us. Her argument was pretty weak as she admitted she only heard us making loud noises the first night and subsequently she admitted she didn't hear us anymore, although what went on downstairs(where we stayed) was a different matter altogether. I rebutted how did she know, did she have a recording, and she couldn't answer. Then Jean asked her a very simple question, so does that mean we cannot even shower at night. And again she avoided the question and didn't answer it directly. She was blatantly siding that guy la! We were like, so was it right for him to switch off our lights then, and she kinda insinuated that we deserved it cuz we woke him up anyway. MEGA WTF.

She then said she'd be happy to refund us the remaining amount and then we could leave. I told her we'd leave if she gave us a full refund, because she was obviously chasing us out! She kept saying she wasn't chasing us, but she wasn't giving us any options. Her stand was that either we came back early, or we came back late then don't shower and pack our stuff. That anal guy, on the other hand, didn't have to compromise at all. That was unfair treatment, and she said that we have already signed the contract when we stayed to obey the rules(seriously where got place you pay to stay still must sign contract and obey rules one) so she can actually call the police on us. We told her different people had different threshold for noise and the fact that that guy has a super low threshold isn't our fault.

Then she started getting pissed at me and called me a pain in the ass and 'bullshit'. Damn crazy pissed at her la! I argued back and it got quite bad. She even told my friends it was my fault that the situation became so ugly and we had to move out. Crazy woman.

Somemore, the website for the hostel said that it was air-conditioned. Fang pi lor when we wanted to on the aircon at night she said we couldn't, and when we asked why she said it was too expensive. WTF?!?! Then we pay you for what shit sia!

So because of that we had to move to another hotel to stay for the last 3 nights. Luckily we had a very helpful cab driver who helped us find the hotel and sent us there :))

We also went to complain about that hostel to the Taiwan Tourism Bureau, and they checked that her freakin hostel was freakin illegal?!?! WHAT THE SHIT. And she wanted to call the police on US?! Mega wtf man. -.- So yeah, she has to close down and pay a fine! Orbi good wahahaha.

Ok back to pics!

Random pic on train! With my loot as usual.

Ximending the second day in Taipei!

The girls loved the Ah Zong Mian Xian. I think it was damn smelly cuz I bth meat smell but I guess meat lovers would love it!

Anyway in unrelated news, I have officially graduated! :D Okay not officially officially until I get my results, but, you know.

I'm like so filled with nostalgia, excitement and a teensy bit of dread at the same time.

I don't wanna work! Working life is gonna feel so jaded. :( All my friends would still be in school! Who do I turn to to talk about work-related problems next time?! :(

And I still wanna playyy. I don't wanna start earning my keep and start being REALLY responsible for myself! (I know I sound very immature and bimbotic saying this but really lor.) I don't know how to manage finances at all. I only know how to play.

This is gonna be a completely new phase of life.

I hope I can handle it well. *crosses fingers*

2011-05-04T07:02:00.000-07:00

Last year on June 20th I turned 21. This means that this year, 2011, on the 7th of May, I get to have my say as a Singapore citizen and vote in the Singapore General Elections.

It is kinda a huge deal to me. I know how some people are apathetic, but that's their problem and I'm not gonna judge them. But I know how hard people in the past used to fight for the chance to vote and have a say in their country. And for me, this privilege came too easily. So easily, in fact, that I think many Singaporeans are taking it for granted.

I'm not claiming to be some political guru. I don't know alot about politics, and I don't have extremely strong views, nor do I want to try to convince people to listen to my opinion (if I wanted I'd have posted this on Facebook). Before this GE, I don't know who's who. I don't know who were my ministers and I don't even know what's a GRC.

But since this year I gotta vote, I poked my nosey nose into politics for the first time. I am curious like that HAHA.

I see alot of different views. So many arguments from both sides, the incumbent and the opposition, and they are all so compelling. I recognize some very outstanding opposition representatives such as Mr Chiam See Tong. If he wins, I would say he deserved it.

But the sad thing is, other than compelling views, I also see EXTREMELY STUPID AND RETARDED VIEWS(people?) at the same time. I won't venture far, I would just look at the situation for my GRC - Ang Mo Kio GRC.

Ang Mo Kio was an uncontested GRC for a long time (according to my mom). But this year, a party named the Reform Party decided to come in last minute after scraping up enough funds and borrowing 2 members from another party (I didn't know this kinda thing happens) just right before Nomination Day.

I never heard of this party before, much less the people in it that are contesting for my GRC this year. Nevertheless, I went down to their rally the other day at YCK Stadium, just to kaypoh abit.

Honestly, I was unimpressed.

I got there late and didn't really stay for long. But I stayed long enough to hear this one guy finish his speech. (I tried very hard to find his speech clip on youtube but somehow I can't! Weird.) I don't know who this guy is. But he made some really retarded statements in his speech.

For example,
1) He said that the PAP has now resorted to personal attacks to remain in power. He was referring to Dr. Vivian Balakrishnan's comment on the gay agenda of Dr Vincent Wijeysingha from SDP. In that same sentence he also remarked, 'Anyway Vivian sounds like a girl's name'.

O.o O.o O.o And how is that not a personal attack, Mr I-dunno-what-is-your-name-reform-party-guy?!?! The worse thing was, some of the crowd even cheered. -.- -.-

Really, Singaporeans? Really, AMKsians?? The irony in that one sentence is so obvious and yet you guys are so blinded by your dissatisfactiion with PAP that you would support any retarded thing anyone says???

2) He also commented that our MM Lee Kuan Yew was 'getting old', and then went on to compare him with 'stale water attracting mosquitoes'.

I was really appalled at that statement. And then got MORE appalled when ALOT of people started laughing and CHEERING.

Wtf, AMKsians, WTF?! Here is this guy, on one hand going on about how poor those old ladies collecting cardboards in the streets are, and how they have fallen through the cracks and been neglected by our government, and on the OTHER hand, comparing ANOTHER old man with 'stale water that attracts mosquitoes'.

Just look at this, people. IF this guy can compare one old man who has done SO MUCH for our country with stale water, how is he gonna judge millions of other old people with much less contributions?

And those of you cheering, you should be ASHAMED of yourselves. The government has spoiled you little brats. Go read what MM Lee has done for us for the past 60 years. You don't need to go far. Just google his name. YOU think YOU can ever be that awesome? *spits*

And then there was the 'honest mistake' made by RP chief Kenneth Jeyaretnam. He said that PM Lee Hsien Loong had written in a letter to him after his father died that his father 'had to be destroyed'. And then after PM Lee said he never said that, Mr Jeyaretnam said 'oops, it was an honest mistake'.

... Really? Cuz if someone wrote to me and said my father 'had to be destroyed' just after he passed away (touchwooood), I would NEVER MISQUOTE THIS F*CKER. But if someone didn't say something like that and I 'honestly thought he did', then I would send myself to IMH for a check.

Last but not least there's this guy:

Anyway, all in all, I find this party dubious. And I really don't wish they be voted in based simply on PAP's flaws.

There are also people who say that the PAP kept boasting about their 'track record' for the past 50 years, something which the opposition does not have because they weren't given the chance.

A fair enough statement, I would say. But then I also wonder, why is it that people are so willing to give the opposition a chance, when the opportunity cost is a badly managed GRC/town and public dissatisfaction and suffering, and yet so unwilling to give Tin Pei Ling a chance, when the opportunity cost is just overpaying this one chick and probably letting her buy a few more Kate Spades? (Btw I dunno what is the deal with her Kate Spade, so what if she owns a branded item, so do MANY Singaporeans what. Own Kate Spade means what, bimbotic? Materialistic? What?!)

I'm not saying I think Tin Pei Ling's awesome, cuz she also has alot to prove. But I just feel people should be more fair.

This also links to my next point on how people keep going on about how the PAP would 'stop at nothing to remain in power'. If they are really such power-hungry people, and so concerned about wanting to govern Singapore forever, why would they go bring in a candidate whom they think is incapable? (Talking about Tin Pei Ling here) Naturally if they want to rule, they would wanna only keep the capable people, no? People, you are not making sense here.

And then there are people complaining about too many foreigners in our midst. I think that is a valid observation, but I also think that is something we cannot really stop. Because this is a trend, it's called globalization.

The same thing is happening in Japan, Norway, the UK, Spain, and Everywhere. Singapore, being a country with no natural resources and low birth rate, needs these people.

And if we need these people, why should we treat them shoddily? Just like how we want our people to be treated right if they ever move to work in other countries, we should also treat our foreigners right.

They say that foreigners snatch jobs from us. I don't really know the true statistic of that situation, but maybe I can share some view from the area I know: NTU. In that video above, that NTU guy said that foreigners take away our halls from us. I don't understand why he made that claim. We are all students from NTU, why should we separate ourselves by nationality? Although I really can't stand some foreigners in NTU because of their loud manners and sometimes weird smells, I NEVER blamed them when I couldn't get a hall.

They need it more than I do. Cuz they don't have a house here! Furthermore, I don't think ALL foreigners are guaranteed a hall in NTU, cuz I have seen emails sent from China girls asking us hall residents to help them secure a room. They only have more advantage in the sense that they have full distance points, which also makes perfect sense to me.

In my 3 years (6 sems) in NTU, I stayed in hall for 5 sems. I wanna stay in hall, I fight for it. Everyone is fighting for it, how can I say because I'm Singaporean, this is my homeground and therefore I should have the right to stay in hall? That's pure tyranny. And so I joined clubs and engaged in various activities and secured hall points. When I didn't get hall for Year 3 Sem 1, I sucked it up. I complained about the long travelling hours, but I never blamed the foreigners for 'taking my place'. Because that's pure retardation.

(I also think Singaporeans are spoiled ttm in thinking that travelling to NTU if you stay in Changi is unthinkable. In other countries, students take even longer times to travel to school. And not all towns have good public transport systems, mind you. Some walk, and others cycle.)

I think this theory also applies for finding jobs. You prove your worth people. Cuz nobody owes you a living.

And then when this point is put across, there are people who slam this point by saying because we are the 'lucky' Singaporeans born into the right socioeconomic conditions, we become 'elitists' and think we 'deserve' all that we have, and people who cannot make it in life must be stupid lazybums. They say we don't understand how hard it is for people in low income brackets to make ends meet.

I agree fully. I have never tried going hungry and having to really work to get my allowance, or tried having no place to stay.

BUT MY PARENTS HAVE. My paternal grandfather died when my dad was only 17 and studying in polytechnic. When my grandfather died, all he left for his family was $14 in a drawer. My dad helped my grandmother deliver the bras my grandma tailored to make ends meet. My mom grew up in a family constantly in debt. She always had to hide with her baby brother in the house when the loansharks came round to collect the debts. She never managed to pay her school fees on time (making her the object of teasing), but she worked hard and managed to get scholarship which abstains her from needing to pay school fees.

My parents had to save and scrimp to manage to hold a decent wedding. When I was born, I lived in a 3-room flat with my grandma, parents and uncle. But my parents continued working very hard, and we kept upgrading and upgrading till today, where I stay in a condominium and pay off my university fees with no bank loan.

I see how possible it is to achieve success with enough hard work. Even if studying isn't your thing, you can find what you are good at, and still succeed at it. One good example would be Singaporean hairstylist David Gan. He didn't study very much, but now he styles Zhang Ziyi's hair.

Not everyone can be a millionaire, but there is nothing wrong with living simply as well, as long as your basic needs are met. There would ALWAYS, ALWAYS be this difference in income level in ANY SOCIETY. It is not something that can be solved by changing a government. Cuz there is only this much you can do. All you people cheering for opposition cuz they claim they would take care of the less privileged, let me ask you:

Are you the ones who walk away from a girl guide/boy scout when they ask you for some donation which goes to voluntary organizations on Flag Day?

If you are, then you are a hypocrite.

And watch this video people, and LEARN AND REFLECT.

Another nice song!

The Script - Breakeven

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in
'Cause I got time while she got freedom
'Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven

Her best days will be some of my worst
She finally met a man that's gonna put her first
While I'm wide awake she's no trouble sleeping
'Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven, even, no

What am I supposed to do
When the best part of me was always you and
What am I supposed to say
When I'm all choked up and you're okay

I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces

They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
'Cause she's moved on while I'm still grieving
And when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven, even, no

What am I gonna do
When the best part of me was always you
And what am I supposed to say
When I'm all choked up and you're okay

I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces
(One's still in love while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
('Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven)

You got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase, I took the blame
Now I'm tryna make sense of what little remains, oh
'Cause you left me with no love and no love to my name

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in
'Cause I got time while she got freedom
'Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't break
No it don't break, no it don't breakeven, no

What am I gonna do
When the best part of me was always you
And what am I supposed to say
When I'm all choked up and you're okay

I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces
(One's still in love while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
('Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven)

Oh, it don't breakeven, no
Oh, it don't breakeven, no
Oh, it don't breakeven, no

What am I gonna do, when the best part of was always you

April happenings!!

Hahahaha okay technically April is FAR from over (omg April over means exams coming fml), but I've gone out so many times (and spent so much money) that I think I should start clearing pics and uploading them first before I forget about some. Y'know. Okay I'm not making sense whatever.

I think maybe I'm malnourished. I'm so broke this month I'm not eating. HAHAHAHA. Okay I'm kidding I just had crabs for dinner! But I'm really broke :(

So on the 3rd (omg I remember) Jacq Jenn and me went to NAFA to support Yvette for her hall prod! Yve babe did very well in her dance, can see the effort! =)) But the rest of the show was like, some ah tiongs singing and some actually not very well, so the three of us were entertaining ourselves and laughing at people.

My oldest friends from secondary school days <3 <3 see all so pretty now *nostalgic* HAHA. Anyway you know how some friends sometimes drift apart and I think we did, but I'm so glad we're all making the effort to maintain this friendship now, cuz it really means alot to me! =D

And then the next week it was Jacq's turn to perform for Dance for Japan. AWESOME CONCERT.

Went with the Nypers to support!

Our hottie Jacqjacq, rocking the dance floorrrr!

Oh then in between was outing with Pris Sompong and Zhiyuan. Supposed to go clubbing but the club was closed -.- NOOBIFIED. But we spent alot on drinks still, after going to Boiler Room (is that what that place's called?). The prices were SO EXORBITANT, what were we thinking -.-

Anyway, then we decided maybe we should go Party World. Awesome decision! Cuz I gian K for damn long already wahahaha. And singing with these peeps ALWAYS CRACK ME UP.

Haha. Ugly, retarded, unglam, whatever. FUN :)

And then there was the MarkeTHINK Club investiture! I have finally stepped down from my post hehe. The juniors all look absolutely capable =) Sure they'll all achieve great things!!

Piccies with my dearest club friends, who shaped my life as a marketing major in NBS! From clubmates to besties la all! I just had crabs with them too actually LOL. So stepping down doesn't mean anything, we're forming a new club called The Crab Club. (y)

I look so cui hereeee :( I am damn sad. Why am I becoming so ugly!

Uploading this pic cuz got both comms inside! And the colours all so bright and cheery! AndalsocuzIthinkIlookchioerherewahahaha.

Omg I'm supposed to be doing my assignment! I'm so slack this sem I can't believe myself. I really never study at all! Keep playing only. But surprisingly I'm still scoring for my quizzes. Hahahaha.

I'm living by this quote till I grad anyway.

This song inspires me so so muchhhh.

What Are Words - Chris Medina

Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see
How every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

And I know an angel was sent just for me
And I know I'm meant to be where I am
And I'm gonna be
Standing right beside her tonight

And I'm gonna be by your side
I would never leave when she needs me most

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
And I'm gonna be here forever more
Every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most

I'm forever keeping my angel close

Anywhere you go, I'll be there
Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see
How every single promise I keep

MARCH HAPPENINGS!!

Sorry for the lack of updates! Hahahaha. Here comes some piccies.

Mainey's bday party!

This is my fave pic!! The balloons add some kinda happy effect I dunno why HAHAHA maybe I think too much la huh.

Nypers' Girls Night Out at Butter Factory

This is a pic taken when we are still normal HAHA.

Random dude at the back, dunno who.

HRMMMM.

Cam-whoring after!

There are a few more but I have deemed them to be too unglam HAHA.

Anyway. I know I have said this a million countless times, but Imma say it again.

I LOVE MY GIRLS.

They are the people who know me best. I do not just refer to the Nypers. There are a few more and I'm sure all of them know who they are la. HAHA. But yeah. I'm not just saying this for the sake of saying it.

Recently my parents and sisy made some comments to me about, hmm, recent events in my life. Not gonna elaborate much here so please don't ask tyvm. But anyway, whatever they said kinda stung. I know they didn't know what they said affected me so much. And I know they do love me. And I love them too. But maybe it's just the way I am, I don't always show my sad/weak/affected feelings so people always seem to think I am happy-go-lucky and in some more extreme cases, even heartless, irresponsible and whatever.

But because I don't cry and don't get all depressed doesn't mean I don't care. I might be feeling like hell inside but I don't like to show it. But weirdly with my gfs I do. They understand and they don't judge. They will be there for me, even when they might not agree with my actions.

At times when I need the most support, when I do the stupidest things, my gfs tell me they support me as long as I am happy. Usually my parents tell me I would 'regret this'. Maybe because all along I hadn't met with major hiccups in life. I study damn little but I make the grades. They start thinking I am too proud for my own good. I am only lucky. That's why I shouldn't push my luck. Someday my bad decisions will catch up with me. But they don't know that I really THINK ALOT before making a decision ok. Like really alot. I just don't tell people I am thinking.

And when I fail something and get upset, I show that I am fine. I don't cry and I get over it fast. Because life goes on and I don't wanna waste time on things that aren't worth it. My parents would then tell me I 'deserve it', because I just seem like I don't care. On the other hand my gfs would just say words of encouragement even when I'm acting like I'm okay.

But this isn't a rant post ok. I still love my family because they provide me with everything I need, materialistically especially. Haha. This is more of a THANKYOU to my gfs.

Because they love me most when I deserve it least. :')

Till my next post!

2011-02-17T02:35:00.000-08:00

I had an awesome possum CNY! Okay actually CNY is a little dismal. It's like the same stuff on repeat every year. Maybe there are other reasons why but whatever. I still had fun because I was with my family and friends! x)

<3 my family mucho! Hehe.

And then there was mahjong session with my favouritest girlsss.

I love my girls very muchhh. x) The other day we were just saying on bbm that 'Guys come and go, but the right gfs stay through it all.' =)

Short post for the day!

Nice song.

I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all.

2011-02-01T01:11:00.000-08:00

HAHAHAHAHAHA this is really random.

Background story: I found my minnie mouse with her ribbon on the ear torn and we decided that probably my mickey mouse quarelled with her and hit her. And I said to the boyf that mickey is naughty because his daddy is naughty.

LOL. Boyf entertains my nonsense ttm.

2011-01-25T16:40:00.000-08:00

How can I just let you walk away
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you
You're the only one
Who really knew me at all

How can you just walk away from me
When all I can do is watch you leave
'Cause we've shared the laughter and the pain
And even shared the tears
You're the only one
Who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now
'Cause there's just an empty space
There's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
So take a look at me now
'Cause there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me, is against the odds
And that's what I've got to face

I wish I could just make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you
So many reasons why
You're the only one
Who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now
'Cause there's just an empty space
There's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
So take a look at me now
Cause there's just an empty space
But to wait for you is
All I can do
And that's what I've got to face.

Take a good look at me now
'Cause l'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
That's the chance I've got to take

Against All Odds - Mariah Carey

More piccies from Korea! Hehe.

Awesome F21!!

And the most epic picture of allll:

Hahaha! This was taken moments before my fall. See I still smiling away so happily! Note Queenie at the side who has already fallen LOL.

Then there was the meetup with Yvette and Jenny! We went to Scape to take a pic with Jacq too hehe.

I'm so boredddd. Waiting for the Nypers to come potluck at my place! =D

Ahh! Shall share my fave song from the movie Burlesque. IT WAS CRAZY AWESOME. Imma catch it again! Haahahaha.

Cher + Christina rocked.

2011-01-11T22:58:00.000-08:00

Just came back from a holiday in Korea with the Nypers! Started 2011 with an awesome trip x)

It's crazy cold in Korea! But we girls are strong! The last 2 days of our trip we went out without our coats. Just jackets. Like how cool right. HAHAHAHA wanna dai ah we all.

I LOVE TRAVELLING WITH THE NYPERS. They are the most awesome travel mates. It's SO HARD to find people you can actually have fun travelling with. For example, I am one who dislikes plans. I mean, yes, of course you must do research and all before going to a foreign country, but I don't see why some people must be so anal about sticking to a FIXED schedule.

If like today supposed to go to Place A, and you wake up feeling a little too lazy, you should just go ahead and change the plan and go for a chillax shopping session instead of forcing yourself to travel to the place and get all tired and end up not enjoying yourself in the end right!

Luckily the Nypers (all 5 of us plus Gie's sis Audrey) are all cool-birds that are okay with anything! x)

And then some people are very anal about clearing up. I mean like, I WILL clear up, but not ALL THE TIME or immediately after I reach back home/hotel. Just, relax a little would you, it's A HOLIDAYYYY.

Again luckily the Nypers are all cool about a little mess here and there HAHAHA. But we are not slobs okay!

Lastly I also don't get why some people complain alot or get scared and start panicking whenever we lose our way or can't find a place. I mean, it's only normal to lose your way when you are in a FOREIGN COUNTRY right! Just chill, look at maps, ask around, sure can find one what. Then you like panic or start blaming people and all, as if will solve matters like that! -.-

Luckily my dear girls, though we are all girls, have a great sense of adventure. Even when we lose our way we find humour in the situation and are flexible regardless. On the first day we actually couldn't find our hostel at night when we got back. We kept walking round the area, and it was so dark cuz it was past 12am! We had to climb up and down and were so tired! Angie even had a mild asthma attack, but everyone made it home safely and still happy! =))

I AM SO PROUD OF MY GIRLS. =D Somemore throughout this trip we travelled everywhere by train ourselves okay! No cabbing! Hehe.

Okay some pics to show you all! We all got ALOT, imagine 5 cameras. Here are the nicer ones! (To see the rest click HERE and HERE. But they are just my pics la got more in the girls' cams haven't compile yet!)

Show you guys our hostel! It's really damn nice, much better than a hotel! Warm and cosy!

Got a mini kitchen...

TV and an oven beside...

Queenie and Nicnic's room!

Gie and Audrey's room!

Me and Jacqjacq's room!

Our toilet in pinkkkk!

Some Korean food we tried!

Soy sauce chicken!

Padang (dunno what it means) chicken!

Garlic chicken!

The ever so famous kimchi ramen with cheese!

Omelette rice! With bacon and sweet corn.

Bibimbap!

Some eggish pancake whose name I forgot haha.

And the yummiest meal I had: grilled udon!

Korean food like not very nice leh. Not my cup of tea la. It's so ironic that my favourite meal in Korea came from a Jap restaurant.

Some sights in Korea!

Shoes...

Random free-hugs girl!

Korea's idol-poster filled EVERYWHERE! And I took alot of pics with Jessica! HAHA.

We went to Lotte Mart and basically bought the whole mart.

Okay last but not least, pretty pictures of... ... US! HAHAHAHA.

In Everland...

At the ski park! (I actually fell while skiing and bit my tongue in 3 places -.- noob I know.)

At Lotte World!!

Hehe! <3 <3

Anyway, random word of advice: DON'T TAKE TRANSIT IF YOU TRAVELLING BY LOW COST AIRLINE!!! We thought wanna save money so we transit-ed from KL to Seoul. (means we went from SG to KL first then go Seoul) WAHLAO ALMOST DIED. So tiring!! Somemore the KL airport sucked =S Sian ttm! So people, take my advice, pay abit more, take direct flight!!

Ohoh and I wanna thank my boyfwen for sending me to airport and picking me from airport! He send me that day he was sick lo! But he still sent anyway! Then come back that time my flight was 8.20am then he didn't dare to sleep cuz he scared he cannot wake in time! HAHAHA. Why so cute one! He really one whole night never sleep a wink! Then the next day collapse and sleep like pig HAHAHA! The boyfwen really very nice lor. I throw tantrum ask him get me food even though he has to detour back to the place he also will go one! Then I say "Wah got so nice not!", then he reply "Of course la you're my 唯一." HAHAHA. =DD

Okay enough of ramblings for now! Till my next post!

2010-12-26T05:57:00.000-08:00

FINALLY! Some pictures to make up a not-so-boring post x)

It's been a blast of a week! Time seems to fly by so damn fast, especially when you're enjoying. Blah. I wish this holiday will never end, cuz THIS IS MY LAST OFFICIAL SCHOOL HOLIDAY! Yep, next sem is gonna be my last sem in uni. Like how freakin fast is it!

I still remember my first day in NBS FOC so damn vividly. My first day in school, and the friends I've had the chance to make. Some things make up some really wonderful memories, some maybe not as much. But I'm grateful for everything. I know uni days would be a period of my life I'd always look back on with a smile.

I still remember back in JC, I always encouraged myself to pull through by telling myself: "This shit would be over soon. When you reach uni you will have the time of your life." And boy was I right! (Sorry, my JC days sucked. I don't look back on it fondly, if I even look back on it at all. On the contrary I loved my secondary school days too!)

Okay enough of this crap.

So on Tuesday, just right after Jenny's last paper, we went to the CSI exhibition at Science Centre together with Jacq! We only took one miserly photo, which is with Jenny at the moment so I don't have it. Haha. But the exhibition was pretty interesting! The stuff we learned in Forensic Science (this elective module both Jenny and I take) were all applied! Jacq was damn cute, she was so excited about solving the cases and all.

But after we left the Science Centre, we got major unlucky! We just made it out a little when Jacq was like 'Gee! Look over there! Does it look like it's RAINING?' and pointed to some far far distance which did indeed look a little grayish and foggy.

Jenny and I kinda just looked and didn't pay much attention. Then after only a few steps(I swear only a FEW steps), it started POURING!! And it wasn't your little drizzle kinda thing. It was REALLY POURING. Totally had no idea where the rain came from please!

So Jenny fumbled in her bag for an umbrella and all three of us stood under it. Yes only Jenny brought an umbrella. So we were like, in the middle of nowhere hudding under one small umbrella and still getting crazy wet. We wanted to move, but we realized we can't, cuz we were huddled in a circle facing inwards and unless somebody moves backwards or something we were stuck!

But in the end we figured since we were already wet. Might as well brisk walk to the bus stop near us. And we did.

So for the following few hours we were trembling in the cold of the bus and the shopping malls we went to -.- Seriously. BUT I got to try Gongcha's yam milk tea! Quite yummy! =D And we all bought various cheap stuff from the sales that were around teehee!

Had a great day with the girls =) When was the last time we did this man! We should totally do it again =DD

*************************************************************************************

Then there was Christmas celebration! The Bf had some friends who organized a gathering at Marina Bay Sands. They booked a room! So I tagged along.

Piccies!

This is me, before I left Bf's house(and still totally sober.) I had blue nails! xD

Bf driving there.

Wearing Santa hats!

Moi.

I'm wearing maxi-eye contacts! Can see not? LOL.

Moi again!

That's me again, with my eyes bloodshot. You can't see that clearly in this pic but I really looked QUITE red. By the end of the night Bf was playing poker with the rest while I sat behind(or rather SLOPPED behind) with teary eyes and nose. And yes, Bf totally ignored me. Oh and yea, the glass behind me was mine too HAHAHA.

Here are the pics I kopped from Facebook!

Me and Bf. Haha I was telling Bf that the girl behind us so funny, like trying to hide away while we take our pic. Bf was like 'Got someone else in the pic meh?' -.- I mean, the girl's head also not say small right! Guys. Seriously never look at things closely enough!

This is a shot of Bf playing Scissors Paper Stone with someone else. It was part of our gift exchange game. Bf is damn good at playing games. I dunno why, but he always wins! EVEN at Scissors Paper Stone! I think he's just got this scary face, and people just see liao then scared then lose? LOL I dunno. But it sucks! To lose I mean. Cuz he always got this sibeh cocky face whenever he wins. -.- I only ever REALLY won him in like, Bishi Bashi. And a few times at Minesweeper. *sulks* So anyway, he plays and I sit behind and wait.

I am always ready for the camera! LOL.

Greedy pigs.

Group shot!

Really dunno what I was laughing at but it does seem pretty funny. x)

Hahaha! Caught with a gian face of mineeee!

Me with my drink and Bf with his face cut off.

Guess who?!

Lol Bf and I spent most of Christmas Day slacking around and talking to Mickey Mouse. True story.

Ok! Last piccie of the day!

And what's Christmas without a kissy pic?? LOL.

Goodnight!! =D

2010-12-21T04:32:00.000-08:00

Sometimes there are things you know for sure, things you have to fight for, things worth fighting for. Don't let fear hold you back.

If it ever meant anything.

Cryptic I know. But I'm just saying.

2010-12-09T07:40:00.000-08:00

It is a beautiful place. Very beautiful. A theme park or carnival of sorts. Different stalls lined the road I was on. They had cute little colourful flags on top of their tents. A huge white ferris wheel stood in front of me, rotating ever so slowly.

It was almost sunset, but not really sunset yet. I could still feel the sun's warmth on the side of my face. I don't know what I was standing there for. Waiting, maybe?

Then you appeared. Walking towards me with the little smile on your face you always have. I was happy to see you. I ran towards you, eager to pull you in for a hearty embrace and take in your scent fully with my breath.

But when I reached you, you didn't sweep me into your arms. Instead, I was held half an arm's length away from you and given a brief squeeze on the shoulders. Oh, right, I thought. I forgot. I returned you another brief squeeze.

What are you doing here at Disneyland? I asked. I wonder why that was Disneyland. Maybe because Disneyland's always filled me with wonder, and you did too.

I walk past here everyday, after school. you replied smiling. Again I didn't know what that meant. It didn't make sense, but nothing about you ever made sense to me.

We decided to take a seat. On a bench? Was it a bench? Yes I think it was a bench. You touched my hair. You smiled at me.

And suddenly I was filled with an enormous rush of longing. I wanted to touch your face.

I put my head on your shoulder. Took in your scent. Finally. You kissed me on the forehead. And I see the sunset.

Then I knew - there was no other place else for me.

2010-11-25T09:35:00.000-08:00

Awfully sad but nice song.

張芸京-我不愛你了

爱过的人都有这样的时刻
无话可说的沉默
你没做错什么是有些感觉变了
在心中拉扯

从遇见你在一起笑过爱过争吵过
当初的爱究竟都藏到哪去了

曾经说好了永远一起要摘下最远的星星
被你拥抱的幸福还温暖着我 oh~
你曾那样笃定爱着我才让现在的我们
不忍心说出口我不爱你了 ho~

你没做错什么是有些感觉变了
在心中拉扯

从遇见你在一起笑过爱过争吵过
当初的爱究竟都藏到哪去了

曾经说好了永远一起要摘下最远的星星
被你拥抱的幸福还温暖着我 oh~
你曾那样笃定爱着我才让现在的我们
不忍心说出口我不爱你了

当关心变成啰唆当眼泪变成懦弱
说我爱你改变不了什么
至少曾浓烈爱过
这件事是没有人能否定的

曾经说好了永远一起要摘下最远的星星
被你拥抱的幸福还温暖着我 oh~
你曾那样笃定爱着我才让现在的我们
不忍心说出口我不爱你了 ho~
笃定爱着我现在的我一错再错
你曾那样笃定爱着我
只是现在的自己
不该一错再错我不爱你了

曾经说好了永远一起要摘下最远的星星
当初的爱究竟都藏到哪去了

This Romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up

It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you I give up

I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me

And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always

Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man

When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time

Yeah, I will love you baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always

If you told me to cry for you
I could
If you told me to die for you
I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you

Well, there ain't no luck
In these loaded dice
But baby if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams
And our old lives
We'll find a place where the sun still shines

And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always

I AM BORED.

Monday's always my 'bored' day cuz EVERYONE has school on Mondays except me. So I slack around at home when I'm actually supposed to do work. -.-

I MISS HALL. SO DAMN MUCH. Okay I don't miss my hall per se, but I miss staying in school. =(

Reasons why I miss hall

I miss not having to travel to school via MRT. And not having to wake up at 6am for 8.30am lessons.

I miss having my own personal space to crash in after a tiring 4-hr seminar. Switch on the aircon, draw the curtains, lie on the bed and stare into space/sleep.

I miss having TONS OF SHELF SPACE to put my notes/textbooks. Back in Hall 16 we had TONS of shelves. Now at home I gotta share the tiny room with the sis. And the whole room's packed with her A Level notes FML -.-

I also miss having my own cupboard. Now that I'm home, the cupboard space in my room is MEGA NOT ENOUGH for both mine and my sis' clothes. I have to store alot of my clothes in the storeroom FML! And then got this musty smell and everytime wanna wear must go there dig. Alot of bags also stored in storeroom I'm MEGA SAD.

I miss having the freedom to go back whenever I like (like, at night)! Back home always gotta report to my mom what time I'm reaching home damn sian -.-

I miss going for supper sessions =( Miss walking around in school late at night buying Macs to eat. =((

I miss not having to worry about whether I can catch the last train home.

I miss the FRIENDS!! If I stayed in hall I can jio Pris for lunch sessions like how we always used to. If I stayed in hall (and if Jenny also stays in hall) I can go kajiao Jenny at night and watch Youtube videos till late! And if I stayed in hall I can hang out with the bf more also. =(

Okay this post making me emo NEXT TOPIC PLEASE.

So, I was saying I was bored.

So bored I was I edited pics! =D

Nah.

Mid-Autumn celebration!

HAHAHA.

Anyway I think my bf is really damn suay to be my bf. LOL! I always make him do dumb stuff. Like go play sparklers and lanterns. And just last Saturday I pulled him up on the Clarke Quay's Extreme Swing thingy.

Yesh, this one.

This is like the best pic I can find online la but you know la huh. Unless you not Singaporean or you dumb or you live in cave.

Anyway the bf is not exactly what you'd call an adrenaline junkie. In fact I think he like quite(mega) scared of this kinda thing one. The series of events and conversations that led us to this decision was hilarious.

Setting: Parkway Mos Burger, just finished shopping for lappies (I'm getting a new lappie!! More on this next time), drinking iced tea, Saturday night, BORED (for me at least).

Bf: Shall we go?

Me: Go where?! No place to go so sian.

Bf: Send you home la. Or go back my house.

Me: So boring. Saturday night leh.

Bf: Then where you wanna go?

Me: Somewhere exciting.

Bf: .... Like?

Me: We should go Clarke Quay sit the swing thingy.

Bf: *horrors* So late close liao lah! (Note: it was only like 10+ lor please)

Me: Where got so early close one?! They like open till quite late one leh. *whips out BB* Lemme google opening hours. (Note: BB is like so handy really.)

1 (frightful for the bf) minute later...

Me: EH THEY 3AM THEN CLOSE LA!! *thrusts BB in bf's face*

Bf: *mental facepalms*

Me: Let's go!

Then next setting: In bf's car, getting out of carpark.

Bf: So..... Clarke Quay?

Me: YES!!!!!

Then next setting: Sitting on the benches beside the rides.

Me: Wah this is mega scary... Why nobody sit on the swing one?! Eh so we going up anot? I wanna see people sit on it first leh...

Bf: You decide. *quietly*

Me: Hehe walao I scared leh! But then we're already here...

Bf: Yea la you decide.

Me: Eh see got people going up liao!!

After watching some people take the ride...

Me: OMFG LIKE FREAKIN SCARY LAAAA!! I SCARED LIAO HAVING 2ND THOUGHTS.

Bf: *silence*

Me: OMFG WHAT AM I DOING HERE?

Bf: WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? WHAT AM I DOING HERE?!?!

Me: Let's go get the tickets!

--- THE END ---

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. And so we went up and the bf mega funny la he cant stop yabbering away about how he doesn't know why he's doing this etc etc.

Anyway the ride was super awesome GO TRY IT. X)

Okay wah damn long post. Shall end here. =)

Bleed - Hot Chelle Rae

I feel like I'm drowning in ice water
My lips have turned a shade of blue
I'm frozen with this fear
That you may disappear
Before I've given you the truth

I bleed my heart out on this paper for you
So you can see what I can't say
I'm dying here (I'm dying here)
'Cause I can't say what I want to
I bleed my heart out just for you

I've always dreamed about this moment
And now it's here and I've turned to stone
I stand here petrified
As I look you in your eyes
My head is ready to explode

I bleed my heart out on this paper for you
So you can see what I can't say
I'm dying here
'Cause I can't say what I want to
I bleed my heart out just for you

And it's all here in
Black and white and red
For all the times
Those words were never said

I bleed my heart out on this paper for you
So you can see what I can't say
I'm dying here
'Cause I can't say what I want to
I bleed my heart out just for you

I bleed my heart out just for you

I know I know my blog mega boring these days cuz all I'm posting are song lyrics. I'd think of something interesting to blog about soon HAHAHA.

Till then.
XOXO

it's tearing me apart

2010-09-20T02:45:00.000-07:00

Nice video here!

Something More by Secondhand Serenade

I lie awake again
My body's feeling paralyzed
I can't remember when
I didn't live through this disguise
The words you said to me
They couldn't set me free
I'm stuck here in this life I didn't ask for

There must be something more
Do we know what we're fighting for
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
And all these masks we wore
We never knew what we had in store
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out

The storm is rolling in
The thunder is loud it hurts my ears
I'm paying for my sins
And it's gonna rain for years and years
I fooled everyone
And now what will I become
I have to start this over
I have to start this over

There must be something more
Do we know what we're fighting for
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
And all these masks we wore
We never knew what we had in store
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out

I fooled everyone
Now what will I become
I have to start this over
I have to start this over

There must be something more
Do we know what we're fighting for
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
And all these masks we wore
We never knew what we had in store
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out

There must be something more
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
There must be something more

I know what I'm fighting for.

People I love and people who love me X)

Happy birthday Daddy! =D

2010-08-30T18:40:00.000-07:00

Perfect
Falling a thousand feet per second, you still take me by surprise
I just know we can't be over, I can see it in your eyes
Making every kind of silence, takes a lot to realize
It's worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall, even if you said I was wrong

I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?

Making every kind of silence, it takes a lot to realize

When you're caught in a lie and you've got nothing to hide
When you've got nowhere to run and you've got nothing inside
It tears right through me, you thought that you knew me
You thought that you knew

I'm not perfect, but I keep trying

Wheee! Long time no blog! Haha after internship like leading slack life, everyday do random things. Either that or I go out and spend money, while other people earn money by finding new jobs or extending their internships FML.

Oh and I'm also super in love with this song nowwww! Think I'm super slow la but whatever I'm gonna post the video up anyway.

On My Own from Les Miserables!! (Basically the girl singing is in love with a guy who doesn't love her back la.)

And now I'm all alone again, no where to go no one to turn to,
without a hope without a friend without a face to say hello too.
And now the night is near,
And I can make believe he's here.

Sometimes I walk alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and then I'm happy
With the company I'm keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live inside my head.

On my own
Pretending he's beside me
All alone, I walk with him till morning
Without him
I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me

In the rain the pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me for ever and forever

And I know it's only in my mind
That I'm talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that he is blind
Still I say, there's a way for us

I love him
But when the night is over
He is gone, the river's just a river
Without him the world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere
The streets are full of strangers

I love him
But every day I'm learning
All my life I've only been pretending
Without me his world will go on turning
A world that's full of happiness
That I have never known!

I love him
I love him
I love him
But only on my own.

2010-07-26T21:09:00.000-07:00

Yay! Hahaha. X)

Anyway I'm catching Inception tomorrow! Mega-excited cuz everyone says it's amazing! Heh.

Life's really great these days! Honestly I haven't felt so at peace with myself for the longest time. Some people ask me really weird questions like so am I really gonna let certain things be and not do anything about it. Guess the answer's yes for the moment..? I honestly don't think alot about what's next and what I'm gonna do next so there's really no point asking me cuz I really don't have an answer.

It matters most to me that everyone's happy!! =D

2010-07-12T21:36:00.000-07:00

*************************************************************************************

Sunday: Went filming for Gelare campaign. We had to do really stupid and embarrassing stuff. For example, I had to eat ice cream in front of people running in the gym and tempt them. Then Kevin has to ask the Ben & Jerry's scooper to put their ice cream in a Gelare cup. Mad paiseh la omg.

Show you guys when the videos are done, hahaha.

Okk end post now. =D

2010-07-06T11:46:00.000-07:00

*Warning*: Wordy post with no pics just alot of words ahead.

Was randomly surfing around people's blogs when I saw an article Kevin quoted on his blog. Thought the article struck a chord with me so I'm gonna talk about it here in my blog too, heh.

The article is originally from this blog called Marc and Angel Hack Life, and it is titled 'What We Have Been Searching All Along'.

I'm not gonna quote the whole article, cuz the main point is only in the 2nd half. So I'm just gonna summarize the background first.

Basically, this writer had a friend who came to him with a problem. This friend (okay we name him X) had actually been searching far and wide for quite some time for a soulmate and a long, lasting relationship. After a long search, he finally found this woman who was everything he wanted. He rejoiced, because he knew she was a rare find. Things went great for them and they were blissfully in love.

But after some years he began to find faults with her. He felt that she didn't really trust him enough, she had issues with self-confidence, she was messy, and sometimes she acted silly when he wanted to be serious. So he began to doubt the relationship.

Subconsciously, he tested her. He'd purposely look around for dirty things in the apartment to prove she was messy. He'd go out with his guy friends to see her level of trust in him. He'd even set her up in situations so that he can prove she acts silly all the time. (I think alot of us do this. Like when we see something we don't like in someone, then we would go out of our way to spot the times this person commits the mistake and we'd go like 'see see he did it again!')

So obviously, she got all shaken and confused and failed the 'tests' more and more often. X then finds himself at a crossroads. To continue being with this woman, or not???

That is when he approached the writer of Marc and Angel Hack Life. And this writer told him the following: (yes this is the highlight of the article now)

" One of the greatest lessons we get to learn in life is that we are often attracted to a bright light in another person. Initially, this light is all we see. It’s so bright and beautiful. But after awhile, as our eyes adjust, we notice that this light is accompanied by a shadow – and usually a fairly large one.

When we see this shadow, we have two choices: We can either shine our own light on the shadow or we can run from it and continue searching for a shadowless light.

If we decide to run from the shadow, we must also run from the light that created it. And we soon find out that our light is the only light illuminating the space around us. Then, at some point, as we look closer at our own light, we notice something out of the ordinary. Our light is casting a shadow too. And our shadow is a bigger and darker than some of the other shadows we’ve seen.

If, on the other hand, instead of running from the shadow, we decide to walk towards it, something amazing happens. We inadvertently cast our own light on the shadow, and likewise, the light that created this shadow casts its light on ours. Suddenly, both shadows begin to disappear. Not completely, of course, but every the part of the two shadows that are touched by the other person’s light illuminate and disappear.

And as a result, we each find more of that bright beautiful light in the other person – which is precisely what we have been searching for all along. "

*************************************************************************************

I guess it's pretty easy to intepret what he's trying to say. Whenever we first get attracted to someone, we only see his good side. How cute he is, how caring he is, how good he is with his directions, how good he is in arts & craft.

But with time we see other things about this person. His flaws, mostly. How he sometimes turns up late for dates, how he ignores you when he's tired, how jealous he sometimes gets and how he sometimes places other priorities (such as work and friends) before you.

And then we have doubts. We start testing him. Each time he fails the test, we get hurt, and then develop more doubts. It never ends.

And it won't ever end, until we realize one thing. We all have our flaws. I know I have alot. I can get pretty insecure, needy and demanding. I'm horribly bad at directions and I am always late for appointments. I hate talking about serious stuff cuz I prefer to run away from problems and pretend they don't exist. (Yes I'm a coward this way, haha.) These flaws will exist in us, always, no matter where we go, no matter who we end up with.

I believe in true love. BUT, I don't believe it in the sense that there is this perfect someone out there for you, specifically made for you, and as long as you find this person, then everything falls into place. Nothing in life comes this easy. True love exist, yes, but it requires effort to make it happen. Obviously there are people you get along better with and people you don't get along with, but I don't believe in 'He's a much better person for you than I am cuz he can give you this and I can't. Therefore you're better off without me.' If your partner feels someone else is better for him/her than you are, he/she'd tell you. You can't just say 'we'd both find someone more suitable for us' and then walk away and give up the fight. A new person that comes along brings along with him/her a new set of flaws you have to deal with. This is a fact of life.

So are you just gonna walk away from the relationship just because you found out your other half whom you thought you loved very much has a 'shadow' along with his/her 'bright light'? If you really love the person, then you should work together with him/her to get pass these flaws you both have. Shine your lights on each other, make your flaws become smaller, make yourselves become better people for each other.

If you run from his/her flaws, you're also running from his/her good side. What about the times you both laughed together, shared your dreams with each other and promised each other that someday, you'd walk hand in hand down the beach when you're both old and wrinkly?

I believe that as long as we fight, as long as we put in the effort, we can make things work. (Unless of course your other half is a cheater or a gf-beater then different story, you should run as fast as you can cuz if he cheats, he probably doesn't love you, and if he beats, he needs professional help fast. I'm talking about 2 generally normal people who are in love.) Don't give up so easily.

I have faith, always will have faith, in you.

2010-06-30T16:06:00.000-07:00

I am terribly unhappy with my computer at work. Cannot see videos, cannot access Facebook and MSN, cannot even read Chinese! FML. So when I wanna blog and upload pics, I cannot upload those on FB unless I already saved them in a thumbdrive at home and bring the thumbdrive to work. Wth. Damn sian right.

=X

Anyways. A short update on how I spent last week! (Lol okay like not very interesting but I dunno what else to blog about la huh.)

Thursday: Meetup with Shona the twinny! Had a really fruitful discussion session about club stuff, but an even more fruitful HTHT. LOL. It's so funny talking with twinny hahaha! And she also got me a bday present!

After that, OUTING AT CLARKE QUAY!! Super excited, cuz it's been like EONS long since I went out on Saturday nights. Cuz gotta work then always super tired. Was tired that day too but HECK, IT WAS SATURDAYYYY! X)

Dressed uppp! MUAHAHAHA. I <3 my new ribbon hairband teehee.

Yum yum! I like this kinda onion rings! Heh.

After drinking become like this:

Shioks! XD

We went Holland V for dinner! Sushi Tei yums!

Then the two soccer freaks got excited cuz the match between England and Germany started. We kept shifting around in the cafe to find the best spot to see the TV la, damn joke. Although I wasn't really interested in the match, it's still pretty amazing to see how SO MANY people crowded around the whole street to catch the match la!! The place was SO CRAZY CROWDED. I gotta admit, World Cup DOES bring the world together. Strangers congratulate each other when Germany scored and all. Damn funny.

Happy! XD

And then it was time to leave!! (I left first cuz the next day need to work FML when is this sh*t gonna be over?!?!)

So sweet! Still got card somemore heehee!

And guess what was my present??

Perfume from Emporio Armani!! Smells so nice my mom wanted to kop it LOL.

So touched =)) Tell me again what was the noble and sacrificial act I did in my past life that made God decide to bless me with so many of such angels in my present life?!?! HAHAHAHA.

<3
*************************************************************************************

Anyway, I was talking to some friends about the topic of 'dating' the other day when I was struck with some random thoughts.

I realize alot of girls, when you ask them what they are looking for in a partner, would tell you they want someone 'tall, atheletic, handsome, rich, got own car, lives in a private estate, got maid etc etc'. And I guess if you ask me now what I want in a guy I would also say the same stuff. I mean, it's natural what. It's wired into our DNA from prehistoric times to want to find the best mates with the best qualities. Like how we needed a strong man back then to be able to hunt for food, build shelter and produce equally strong children, we need a rich man now to afford a house, preferably with own swimming pool, to afford food, preferably in Ritz Carlton, and to afford tuition for our kids. (Or you can just find a smart hubby to produce smart kids, also can.)

But as time passes and we evolve, we have come to a stage whereby we are a little different from our cavemen ancestors. We started to have a little more of something we call 'emotions'. Back then females don't work in offices with a bitchy environment, don't compare who has more branded bags, and simply don't get THIS upset when our pet fish dies. When we feel trampled on and bullied, when we feel like the world has no place for us, when we feel we're fat and ugly, or even when we want someone to laugh with, who do we run to?

Yep, our bfs! And does it mean that if your bf is rich and handsome, he will also happen to care for you? Is it true that if he's rich and handsome, he would be able to tolerate all your nonsense, laugh at your stupid jokes and get what you are trying to say without you actually saying it?

I realize that in the end, for me at least, when it comes down to ACTUALLY dating, I place alot more emphasis on what I call 'feel' than just the guy's physical qualities.

Alot of people tell me 'feel' can be cultivated one. With time, people fall in love! Welll, maybe there is some degree of truth in that, but for me, I have this uncannily accurate sense of intuition whenever I first meet a guy. Or first chat with him. I WILL somehow be able to tell if the guy will always only be a friend, or if there is a chance we might be together someday. I know some people might think it's abit too fast to judge a possible relationship based on just the first interaction with the guy, but then it just works this way for me. Once I feel the guy will always only be a friend, I will stop trying to make things work for us. I mean, you shouldn't lead somebody on when you know you confirm won't fall for him already, right?

Basically, there are 3 categories in which I classify guys.

1) Totally cannot click.
This category is for guys whom I totally cannot communicate with. Not on the same wavelength, nothing to talk about with them. Usually these are the guys who have a completely different set of values from me. You know, those that think that if you go clubbing and get groped, it's your fault and not that molester's fault cuz 'who ask you go there in the 1st place?' Or those that say freakin stupid stuff like 'If you get molested, must be you wear too skimpy and act too inviting. Like, if you put a meat in front of a dog and the dog eats it up cuz cannot resist temptation, then it's the meat's fault what.' If you are one of these guys, f*ck you.

2) Friend friend!
This category is for guys whom I like hanging out with cuz they're basically nice, decent people that I can click with and joke and laugh with. They usually are more or less on the same wavelength with me, and we can get what each other is saying. Sometimes there might be differing views but we would respect each other's viewpoints and basically just get along very well. These are also the guys that get brutally honest with me and I actually don't mind when they say 'OMG why you become so much fatter??!' cuz I know they didn't intend to be mean but are just so comfortable with me they don't care about being politically correct anymore LOL.

3) The BF.
This category is for the guy that, obviously, knows me better than anybody else and reads my mind before I can say anything. The one that would be there when I fall or need support, who hears my bitching and watches my stupid actions and still love me no matter what.

And yep, I can actually tell from first interaction which category the guy I meet will fall under. If there is any possibility of him falling under category 3, I would know. Cuz if I meet such a guy, I get pretty strong indicators. Firstly, I would want to text him every single day. No matter how mundane the conversation gets, I'd still be interested in what he had for lunch. Secondly, I would want to see him all the time. First date would make me crave for the second, and then the third and so on. Thirdly, I'd think of him all day long. Whenever something funny or upsetting happens, he would be the first person I wanna tell. Conversely, if I feel like texting the guy only occasionally about certain things that concern him or only wanna ask him out for coffee when I'm bored, then obviously he only belongs to category 2.

There are so many obvious indicators that I really don't get how some girls can go on multiple dates with a guy and still say 'I don't really know how I feel about him. Ok lor, can get along lor. But dunno if I like him anot.' (Maybe they know and are just too shy to say it out loud that they like the guy la, I wouldn't know.) But sometimes worse, got gfs of mine GET TOGETHER with the guy already but can still say 'He's nice to me la. But I don't think I love him. See how lor. See how things turn out.' -.- Worse is when they say 'I doubt I really love him, but he's rich, smart and capable. He will provide for me well. I SURE love his car X)'

Actually, I really think that all girls have a radar. All girls KNOW, somehow, if they love a guy. If you find yourself wondering whether you love a guy, or thinking more about what present he's gonna give you next than thinking about him per se, or missing his car more than him when he's away, then I think that maybe you are a little too preoccupied with LOOKING at his physical qualities with your eyes, instead of SEEING who he really is, who you both really are as a couple, with your heart.

Jacq: Babe, as you said in your message for me, we are almost always telepathic! You read me like no one else does, sometimes it gets scary cuz I know I can hide almost nothing from you! =S But I also love it, because sometimes some things I don't wish to say it out, and you are always the one who gets it first.

Jenn: Hey Joke. You always make me laugh like crazy, NOBODY laughs more randomly than me but you! OMG outings with you are always epic; something crazy will happen somehow.

I also love how we even have our own routine when hanging out(first buy tix at Cine, then eat Pastamania, then walk around, then watch movie, then walk around again). I'm so gonna miss you while you're in Korea! =(

With the board the Nypers gave meee! <3 <3 many <3!! =D

Obviously you are one of my most treasured friends! No doubt about it. And thanks for always making me sound like some, I dunno... wonderful person that 'is always so strong and cheerful and inspiring you' or something HAHAHA! I'm not almost as great as you make me sound, there are times I wonder why people would wanna be my friend =S You, on the other hand, taught me ALOT of things. No kidding when I say that!

2010-06-16T15:04:00.000-07:00

3 more days to my partyyyy SO EXCITED!

I'm kinda scared things'll get boring though. =S Cuz the cafe personnel just told me I cannot bring portable karaoke system into the place cuz they don't have the license to 'conduct entertainment activities'! =(

Then what can I do? Other than bring games for my guests to play(like Taboo, Monopoly Deal & Pictionary). =S What what can I doooo?!?! Friends suggested playing interactive games, like get some people up on stage to play together that kind, but I scared friends will buay on then I like zi-high myself up there fml. -.-

Any suggestion on what to playyy?? Suggestions will really be greatly greatly appreciated =D Something people will like to play and actually respond to. =D

Anyway preparations for the party more or less done already.

1) Cake
I decided, in the end, to get the Rive Gauche one!! Yayyy! Cuz the 1 Caramel one reaaaallllyyyy too expensive, and alot of people like Rive Gauche anyway. I also added a pweeeety gold key on the cake. SAD TO SAY, however, the key is made of ALMOND PASTE. Yucks ttm! I'm not gonna eat the key, just put there cuz it's pretty that's all. I know Jacq won't eat it too ROFL.

2) Door Gifts
I finally finished doing up my door gifts last night! (Okay not exactly finished, but almost there ok.) It's just something small lah, don't expect so much please. Bought ribbons + wrapping paper for them, SO PWEEETY!! But I wrap until not like very nice, so, ahem, don't judge me if you're my friend. *smiles sweetly* (Special thanks to the Sisy for helping me with the gifts! Yay!)

3) Guestboard
After pondering for a long while about how to decorate my guestbook and where to buy it, I decided to save alot of trouble and make a guestBOARD instead! Wheee! Other than being so much more convenient(less deco needed), I reckoned that if I get a book, chances are I'm just gonna store it somewhere underneath my bed with the old diaries and probably take it out once in a blue moon to read through it and all. BUTTTT, if I get a guestboard, I can hang it in my room where I can see it everyday and be reminded of the love of all my friends I've made in 21 years every single day!(Drama-mama I know, shut up.) =D Excellent thinking YY, *pats self on back*

But the thing I am MOST EXCITED about isn't any of those mentioned above.

The thing I am most excited about isssssss....

My Presents!!!

TEEHEE!

I kinda already know what I'm gonna get, and that is WHY I am so excited! LOLLOL. My friends are amazing, I can feel they love me tons LOL. They are all going out of the way to get me things I really love! And they all know me sooo well it's kinda scary hahaha!

Anyway speaking about friends, I really think I have the bestest friends ever. ALL of them are spectacular, even though they all came from different walks of life and I met them at different stages of my life. Secondary school, JC, work and uni. They all really really care about me, and recently I just keep seeing and noticing little things they do for me and the extra miles they are always willing to go for me.

Some friends have been my pals for like 5 million years, some maybe even less than a year. But all of them are special and I can't wait to celebrate my 21st with all these people, who make my life so wonderful =)) I really believe that in my previous life(if reincarnation exists), I must have been this saint who got killed while trying to save my entire village or something. Or else where did I get all this good luck and good people in my life?!

Muahaha. And I'm not just saying this cuz I'm getting presents okay! Heh.

Anyway, I just realized that even though my theme is Wild Wild West, I didn't really adhere to it in my gifts and deco etc. LOL. I'm only dressing up according to the theme, but the ribbons and paper and nonsense I bought are all more girlish-cute than gungho cowgirl. Was a little affected, like, you know, like that not perfect already mah. But I was thinking, if for example I used brown twine or rope to decorate my board, I'd think it's SO UGLY I'll throw it away. Humph. So I don't care. Girlish it is! It's MY party, whadaya want?!

Well okay end of post. See you guys Saturdayyyy! <3

2010-06-09T00:11:00.000-07:00

Sighhh. It's so hard trying to decide which cake to get for my birthday party! (Sorry for going on and on about my birthday but I think that's probably what I'm gonna blog about till 19th June!)

Cake is like really super important! So is the food lah, but in this case I have no control over the food since I already chose the cafe and they're handling the food for me. But yea, I STILL can choose the cake! And I don't want to serve yucky tasting cakes =( It just spoils everything. (Okay admittedly I can get really picky about these things. Still thinking what kinda ribbon I should get to tie my door gifts OMT and I have so little time left!!)

Anyway, I narrowed my choices down to 2:

1) Rive Gauche's Guanaja

2) 1 Caramel's Chocolate Praline

Had ALWAYS wanted to get Rive Gauche's Guanaja, cuz EVERYONE can't stop singing its praises and after trying it myself I fell in love with it too!!

AND THEN!!

My sis had to tell me about 1 Caramel's Chocolate Praline.

O.o O.o

It tasted darn goooood!! Plus they allow customization!! O.o

NOW I'm lost.

Bahhhh!

2010-06-06T23:39:00.000-07:00

I AM SO MEGA EXCITEDDD!!!

WHY??

Cuz it's gonna be my BIRTHDAY!!

In about 2 weeks' time anyway. Hahahaha.

It's gonna be my 21st birthday, and I'm gonna have a party!! =D Can't wait for it, it's gonna be soooo fun!

Being 21 years old means alot to me. For as far as I can remember, since my baby days, whenever I get into trouble with my parents and wanna argue my way out, my Dad WOULD ALWAYS SAY:

"Wait till you're 21, then you will understand why you are getting scolded. Wait till you're 21, then I will set you free cuz you would be an adult then and would be responsible for yourself. By that time, you CAN DO WHAT YOU LIKE.

Well! I'm 21 now!! HEH.

Anyway, I'm really excited about the party cuz I did almost everything myself. Scouted for a place, negotiated with them about the menu and all, came up with the theme(it's Wild Wild West by the way, and all my gfs LOVEEEE IT!), bought the deco materials, invited my friends via FB, and I'm gonna have to get a cake for my party real soon toooo!

Side note: I don't get people who always lament that their gf/bf/bff didn't help them organize or set up their party. If they help, then it's a BONUS. They are NOT OBLIGED TO. So quit complaining, it aint that hard. =S Plus, I really believe in organizing MY party MYSELF. I want EVERYTHING to go my way! HAHAHAHA.

Show you guys sneak preview of the things I bought!

Deco:

I also bought some stuff to suit my Wild Wild West theme! Anyway, I took a REEEAAALLLYYY long time to come up with a theme! Wanted something princessy, but I thought people would think it's too hard to follow and just give up -.- Wild Wild West is fun and easy to follow right!

Anyway my theme was inspired by blogger Cheesie. Read her blog and saw this outfit of hers that I really like! (photo taken from cheeserland.com)
So pweety right!!

Heh. So i bought the following:
Denim cropped jacket:

And cowboy hats for me + my sis and bro! HAHAHA.

Okay random pics of me now hehe. Sorry for self-shots. =D

End of post! =D

2010-06-03T15:08:00.000-07:00

"You must teachs your dog manners. Then we are dog lovers each other. Thank you."
whaaat.

2010-05-29T18:44:00.000-07:00

trying very hard to believe this.

2010-05-26T10:17:00.000-07:00

found this while doing my research on organizations.

Symptoms of Psychosis
NOTE: Psychosis is an abnormal condition of the mind,and is a generic psychiatric term for a mental state often described as involving a "loss of contact with reality". People suffering from psychosis are said to be psychotic. They often have hallucinations and delusional beliefs (i know people like that).

after reading through all the symptoms, i realize i kinda sorta fit the bill! O.o

no, really. see, i fulfill almost all the points stated above.

1) Thinking people are against you or talking about you.

This may sound like super paranoid, but i'm always being suspicious that people around me are talking about me! For example, if i'm sitting somewhere minding my own business and suddenly a group of girls beside me start whispering and giggling, i'd be like 'omg. are they laughing at me cuz my top/shoes are ugly/dont match or my hair is messy??' or like, if a random group of people are like talking beside me and suddenly i catch someone saying 'blahblahblah SO FAT' i'd turn my head over immediately to see if they're talking about me! HAHAHAHA. what. so i'm sensitive like that sowhatshutupthxbye.

2) Receiving personal messages from the TV or radio.

ok luckily i'm not so crazy that i think i was summoned through a code on the radio to go fight a war against aliens or something like that, no. but i would go like 'OMG this song he's playing is like so totally meant for meeee!!'. HAHAHA but i think alot of people do that lahh. (ADMIT IT!) so not so bad.

3) Senses seem sharper.

gee. i've always sort of prided myself on having a stellar sense of hearing. like, really. you can ask pris!! she's always saying how good i am at ~~eavesdropping on people's conversations~~ hearing things that are soft/far away. i have a good sense of sight too!! can ask cho. she's always darn amazed that i noticed she cut her hair/put new eyeliner blahandsuch. ok maybe that's not EXACTLY dependent on good sense of sight. maybe im just ~~kaypoh~~ more observant.

4) Hearing voices.

omg this is creeeepppyyyy. but sometimes it happens to me. i'd turn to the person beside me and go 'what?' and then the person will be like 'what what?' and i'll say impatiently 'what did you say just now? you just said something right?'. and the person will look at me weirdly and go 'ermmm... no....'. and i will appear a little doubtful and go 'okayyyy. ... ... ... really no? cuzithoughtiheardyoucallmynameomgwtf??!!!'

5) Seeing visions or things that others cannot see.

this happens to me quite often.
me: isnt that XXX over there??
friend: where?
me: THEREEEE.
friend: where?
me: haiya in front of that building, wearing red!!
friend: where?
me: JUST IN FRONT OF YOU, idiot!!!
friend: ........ where?
*usually it happens quite often when im with certain people.

6) Thinking that you have special powers.

I DO!!! really. Have you heard me talk like this:

HAHAHAHAHAHA. lovely. i love annoying orange.

7) Sad or irritable.

omg i feel this ALL THE TIME. especially irritable. i get soooo damn easily irritated you'd be surprised. for example, i get irritated when:
1)the bus/train is filled with yelling kids/idiots who play their music out loud from their gadgets/ah peks that stare at you/ugly and fat couples PDA-ing/smelly people/people that go 'excuse me excuse me!' when you're alighting at the same stop as them also.

2)people who cannot speak clearly talk to me. or people who cannot spell properly text me. (NOTE: i'm not talking about less educated people who really arent good in english, i mean people who go 'wru'(and expect me to know it means 'where are you', like wth so i reply 'iah'(i'm at home)???) and people who go 'eeeuuuu are shooo cutezx!' and 'he ishhhh liek dart'. go back to your alien-retard planet pls.) ok admittedly i get irritated when people make grammatical mistakes (all the time) too. 'i didnt knew!'/ 'i have ate'/'you drunked my water?'.

3)people take such a long time at the cashier/atm machine/food stall and make me wait. like, some people ah, really damn buay tahan. once saw this idiot uncle at ice cream shop, he went to ask the girl at the counter 'what flavour nice ah?'. like wl you never look at menu before queueing up meh?!
girl: hmmm. would you like chocolate or XXX (forget what la huh)?
uncle: err, got fruity flavour anot huh?
girl: mango or durian?
uncle: errr, hmmm. hahaha, tsk tsk.
me: -.- -.-
uncle: i want something like... not so sweet one leh. got anot ah?
(queue extends behind me)
girl: erm... raspberry?
uncle: berry ah?! errr. hahaha tsk tsk.
like. wth???!! i was on the verge of saying something like 'you're at an ice-cream shop. ice-cream IS SWEET.' like what idiot goes to ice-cream shop and wants something not sweet???!! retard ttm.

4)people go ON AND ON about things i'm JUST NOT INTERESTED IN. i mean like SERIOUSLY, SOME PEOPLE JUST DONT GET THE HINT. ok i know we all have to occasionally pretend to be interested in something, like, that person talking is your friend/boss/dream date and you have to be nice. usually i'm okay with nodding and smiling and going 'haha! really?' BUT WHAT PISSES ME OFF IS PEOPLE who go like 'eh i tell you a secret.'
me: okay, what?? (at this pt i'm really quite interested. like which girl doesnt like a secret right?)
XYZ: hahaha, dont tell anyone!!
me: okok.
XYZ: *giggles* you swear!!
me: okok i swear (lose half the interest liao)
XYZ: wahhh.. *giggles* really cannot tell!
me: (-.-) yes i wont tell. (interest totally gone)
XYZ: aiya i really cant say.. but you wanna know right? i wanna tell you but it's like, not my secret!
me: ohhh, then nvm lo. anyway i was watching this movie the other day damn funny--
XYZ: oh man i'm dying to tell you!! you look like you're dying to know also lah ahahaha u damn kaypoh! so gian!
me: ha.ha. it's ok if you cant tell la. really. so yea, the movie was about--
XYZ: AA and BB are together!
me: huh. who they?
XYZ: the sister of my friend's friend's friend lah! and the guy her school one. think from english lit...? eh dont tell ah!
me: i dont even know them who can i tell.
XYZ: apparently he bought her roses and got on his knees!! omg dont say ah!
me: wow. anyway planning to catch Shrek? looks funny--
XYZ: the girl not even pretty. hor hor??
me: I.DONT.KNOW.THEM.
XYZ: the guy like toot toot one also hor?
... ...
like wahlao!! eh i tell you this REALLY irritates the hell out of me. cuz im just not the most patient person around. you wanna tell then tell, dont come trying to keep me in suspense cuz it doesnt work for me. suspense works for some people i guess, but for me i'll just lose my interest. cuz frankly, maybe I'M JUST NOT INTERESTED IN WHATEVER YOU FIND INTERESTING. OH AND PLEASE dont start accusing me of being kaypoh and 'gian' about knowing your secret, especially when i'm not. cuz i might turn nasty.

i still have a looong list but i shall stop here (shall keep this for the next entry). moving on.

8) Isolated.

... sometimes i feel like that. =(

9) Confused or puzzled.

hahahaha i'm ALWAYS confused and puzzled. ~~cuz most of the time when people are talking i just drift away and start stoning so later i cant catch up with what they are talking about~~ just that i like to act smart/keep my 面子 so i will always pretend to understand what you're saying. so if i smile and nod at you and you suspect i really dont understand what you're saying, PLEASE dont expose me thankyouverymuch. =)

10) Like you cannot trust people.

I dont really trust people. sometimes not even people closest to me. i just think the more you trust someone, the more hurt you'll end up to be when the person hurts you. and you never know what will happen right?? sometimes people hurt you unintentionally too. and i hate that the most cuz you know the person caused you so much pain and yet you cant hate him/her cuz he/she didnt do it purposely. it gets so frustrating cuz you cannot get angry, only can get so upset and pained. and obviously being angry is so much easier than being heartbroken.
...the only person you can ever trust is yourself.

11) Like you are being watched.

omt i always feel like i'm being watched!! especially when i'm walking home late at night, i'll always feel uneasy and that someone is watching/following me. i'll always stare at the floor as i walk, so that i'll know first hand whether there is someone behind me by seeing his shadow. and if suddenly(!!!) a shadow appears, i will start trying to second guess whether he'll appear on my right or on my left. and then i will start thinking of what i'd use to hit him if he attacks me etc etc. you get the point. and and, when i'm alone in the toilet, bathing myself or bathing my turtles whatever, i will always look behind me time and time again cuz i ALWAYS feel somebody is behind. creepy? oh and this is also probably why i ~~am so scared of~~ hate mirrors.

12) Difficulty sleeping.

ok this is the only point out of all that i dont fulfill. never had problems sleeping, never will. sometimes i wish i could sleep forever and dont wake up. moving on.

13) Talking or smiling to yourself.

omgggg i'm always doing this too!!! i always recite things to myself and make up little stories and scenarios in my head and talk to ficticious characters when i'm alone and bored. hahahaha! and i always smile to myself, ESPECIALLY when i'm on bbm with my girls. ok everyone thinks i'm a psycho now.

14) Neglecting your appearance.

GUILTY.

15) Avoiding contact with people.

HAHAHAHA confession time. sometimes (actually quite often) i purposely miss calls/dont reply texts for a long time/appear off when i'm on msn. i just really value my alone time alot. sometimes i just like to stone and do nothing. even when i have absolutely nothing to do, i also wouldnt want people to call to chitchat with me, pile work on me, rush me for things and to talk to me about their problems etc. just wanna lie around and think about things. and be isolated and alone. i'd talk to you IF i want TO.

of course i'm not THIS anti-social all the time lahh. sometimes it's also cuz i'm out with friends/family, and i also value quality time with them alot. to me, quality time means i devote ALL my attention to them while we are out, and not be constantly disturbed by work and other friends' calls etc.

but when i'm out of my pensive mood i'm all up for hanging out. so dont stop asking me out! =D

16) Behaving aggressively.

i poke/punch/pinch my bf for no good reason all the time. =D

The Seven Dumbest Deaths in Recorded History (credits to http://www.crystalkiss.com/dumbest-deaths-in-history/)

1) Attila the Hun

One of the most notorious villains in history, Attila’s army had conquered all of Asia by 450 AD-from Mongolia to the edge of the Russian Empire-by destroying villages and pillaging the countryside.

How he died: He got a nosebleed on his wedding night.
In 453 AD, Attila married a young girl named Ildico. Despite his reputation for ferocity on the battlefield, he tended to eat and drink lightly during large banquets. On his wedding night, however, he really cut loose, gorging himself on food and drink. Sometime during the night he suffered a nosebleed, but was too drunk to notice. He drowned in his own blood and was found dead the next morning.

drowning in your own nose blood wtf??? and you'd think his wife Ildico would kinda notice and help him out there a little.

2) Tycho Brahe

An important Danish astronomer of the 16th century. His ground breaking research allowed Sir Isaac Newton to come up with the theory of gravity.

How he died: Didn’t get to the bathroom in time.
In the 16th century, it was considered an insult to leave a banquet table before the meal was over. Brahe, known to drink excessively, had a bladder condition-but failed to relieve himself before the banquet started. He made matters worse by drinking too much at dinner, and was too polite to ask to be excused. His bladder finally burst, killing him slowly and painfully over the next 11 days.

oh boy. how come someone as smart as this guy(impt astronomer, helped come up with theory of gravity) would die of something as dumb as a burst bladder. somemore take 11 days to die?!?! i used to think these old-time scientists were like how genius. now not as much.

3) Jerome Irving Rodale

Founding father of the organic food movement, creator of “Organic Farming and Gardening” magazine, and founder of Rodale Press, a major publishing corporation.

How he died: On the “Dick Cavett Show”, while discussing the benefits of organic foods. Rodale, who bragged “I’m going to live to be 100 unless I’m run down by a sugar-crazed taxi driver,” was only 72 when he appeared on the “Dick Cavett Show” in January 1971. Part way through the interview, he dropped dead in his chair. Cause of death: heart attack. The show was never aired.

LOLOLOL!! this one's my favourite! this should be EXACTLY what happens to all those braggers out there, who always think they are better than you, and what they believe in is better than what you believe in, and that they are more educated/knowledgeable/wiser than you. generally, people who sit in their high horses. go and die, we dont care that you dont drink KOI and only eat organic food and dont eat meat whatever.

4) Aeschylus

A Greek playwright back in 500 BC. Many historians consider him the father of Greek tragedies.

How he died: An eagle dropped a tortoise on his head. According to legend, eagles picked up tortoises and attempt to crack them open by dropping them on rocks. An eagle mistook Aeschylus’ head for a rock (he was bald) and dropped it on him instead.

this guy's so ancient. anyway, i always wondered how these sculpture artists knew how these ancient guys look like. i mean, the story says he was bald but in this sculpture he had hair leh. anyway i think this story cock one lah. where got so nonsense. if it's true, dunno how many millions of people die of being struck on the head by a turtle liao, considering how much more populated the world is now compared to last time.

The Most Bizarre Song Lyrics (credits to http://roadtickle.com/the-most-bizarre-song-lyrics/)

1) "Shine" by the Newsboys

The Newsboys were formed in 1985 in Australia and they have since become one of the best-selling Christian rock groups of all time.

“And try as you may
there is no way
to explain the kinda change
that would make an eskimo renounce fur
that would make a vegetarian barbeque hamster
unless you can trace this about-face to a certain sign”

what the hell is 'trace this about-face to a certain sign'??? .... what the hell is 'about-face'?

2) "Shake it Baby" by LL Cool J

LL Cool J began making music at the young age of 16 and has since become a very well known rapper. He has released 12 albums since 1985 and he has even broken into acting making himself a big presence in both music and film. He is one of the best MCs in the world.

"Yellow canary, tennis bracelet necklace, knahmsayin?
Three quarter black mink; shades, canaries in both ears
Knahmsayin? Black Phantom, triple black, with the oak wood
Gucci shoes, that’s how I play"

wl this kind, you see his pattern (huge muscles think he damn shuai) plus his name (LL COOL J?? like YY PRETTY C =DD self praise ttm) you know he CMI LIAO. the funniest part is how he keeps repeating 'knahmsayin' (which i take to mean 'know what im sayin') when we so obviously DONT, cuz you're not making any freakin sense, Cool J. in their own world leh this kinda ppl.

3) "I am the Walrus" by the Beatles

The Beatles was one of the most popular and successful rock groups in history. There are few rock bands who have left such a strong legacy behind and who continue to inspire new musicians.

"Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody tuesday.
Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
I am the walrus, goo goo g’joob"

seriously what do you expect from a song titled 'I Am the Walrus'?? i like the 2nd line though. you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long. (HAHAHAHAHAHA reminds me of some ppl ok shut up)

4) "I Like Your Hair" by Scotty Vanity

Scotty Vanity is a very talented musician having taught himself piano and keyboards at the age of 5. He was 15 when he released his first single “I Like You Hair.”

"Hey there, I like your hair
Who does your hair?
I wanna go there
Pshyeah, I like your hair
Who does your hair?
I wanna go there"

huh i think this one ok lehhh. it's just asking someone with nice hair who did his hair only what. at least i know what this guy's talking about.

5) "Wynona's Big Brown Beaver" by Primus

Primus is a rock band that formed in the mid 1980s. They have a very diverse sound which allows them to really attract fans from a wide variety of genres.

"Wynona’s got herself a big brown beaver
and she shows it off to all her friends.
One day, you know, that beaver tried to leave her,
So she caged him up with cyclone fence.
Along came Lou with the old baboon
And said “Recognize that smell?”
“Smells like seven layers,
That beaver eats Taco Bell"

hahaha machiam lady gaga of the 80s. actually i understood everything until the last 2 lines. what's 'seven layers'? and so random the beaver eats Taco Bell..? =/

******************** ******************** *******************

actually i found alot alot more of random/stupid stuff. share them next time! my fingers damn pain now cuz last night played 2 rounds of bishi bashi. omg. and super hungry now alsooo. tonight meeting Nypers for dinner! yayness <3

2010-05-15T12:12:00.000-07:00

I AM BLOGGING IN THE OFFICE. can you believe it?? (not about the fact that i'm blogging in the office, about the fact that i AM IN THE OFFICE ON A SATURDAY, FML.)

but i am handling the events dept in the company. and events people are always busy every single second of their lives. i wanted to do events at first cuz it's so cool; you needa be quick-witted, able to handle the unexpected, be resourceful etc etc. and then you get to meet all sorts of people, run around (no desk-bound job for me thanks) and also earn alot of money. O.o O.o

BUTTTT. i realize now that it's no easy task! you need to be meticulous and patient, and these are characteristics i seriously lack. for example, there were a few chairs out of place at the event venue just now. i totally didnt see them until my supervisor pointed them out to me. after it registered, i then realized it IS really quite unsightly. =S yea yea, i know i can console myself by saying 'but i'm only learning, i just started!'. but i think such things are really innate. you dont have it in you means you DONT. it's just like how i'll never get my mom; how on EARTH did she know i used her makeup on the sly, when i made sure i put everything right where i found it?! or how on EARTH did she find out i dropped 2 buttons on my top(and proceeded to mend it awwww) when i didnt even realize?! ... you get my drift.

and then you need to give up alot of timeeee. omg. i am a born slacker. i like to do nothing at all. when people tell me 'wah i feel damn sian and boreddd, got nothing to do at all!' i would be like 'wah lucky you.'. then they usually go on saying 'where got lucky! i feel so unproductive. at least you are on internship, you are learning something...' and i'll be like 'i'd much rather do nothing at all.' and they wont understand!! they'll say 'no lah, serious. wait till you REALLY have nothing to do, then you will WISH you have something to do.' well. guess what. you're not me. how'd you know what i'll wish for? and i HAVE experienced doing nothing for a long period of time. i loved it.

i am the kind of person who's been seeking the easiest way out in things i do, for all my life. in sec school and jc, i am famous in my CCA for being the chao slacker. can siam i will siam one. in studying, my most used phrase is 'this chapt no need study lah right... wont come out in exam one right..' i'm so used to drifting along in life, taking whatever comes at me, not planning for anything at all, that i am starting to doubt if this job's suitable for me at all. =(

sigh.

oh but well. we'll take it as it comes la huh. hahahahaha.

joy of the day, i met a cute guy! i think i'd better not divulge so much, scarly people stalk my blog(who knows right, things are getting so public these days). had been spamming queenie(who works on saturdays too, sad life like me) on bbm about the guy, HAHAHAHA!

and also since saturday is slack one, i had time to surf around(and blog) and find some real interesting logic puzzles! there was one i found quite interesting, which i shared with jacq and she posted it on her blog, can go check it out if you want. i'm gonna share another one here on my blog, try it if you want!

THE PUZZLE:

In a faraway island there were 10 inhabitants. One day, a ferocious monster invaded the island and declared he wants to eat all the inhabitants! The people begged and cried for him not to eat them, and the monster decided to give them a chance.

He said: I shall give you a chance to redeem yourselves! I will play a game with you. The rules of the game will be told to you now, and you will have one day to discuss your best strategy. By dawn tomorrow, you shall all assemble before me and the game will commence.

Rules of the game: The 10 people on the island would line up in a single file the next day. They will stand in a straight line, all facing the same direction. They will face the back of the person in front of them, ie: the 10th person can see the 9 people in front of him, the 9th person can see the 8 in front of him and so on, until the 1st person who doesnt have anyone in front of him and obviously cant see anyone.

The monster will then randomly place a hat on their heads. The hats can ONLY be in white or black. The order is random, he can put anyhow he wants, can even put all black or all white. After he is done, he will start asking, STARTING FROM THE 10TH PERSON, 'what is the colour of the hat on your head?' all the way until he finishes asking the 1st person. If the person answers correctly, he will be freed, if not, he will be eaten. NOTE: The person can ONLY answer one word: black/white. He cannot specially intonate the word, like saying 'blaaaaaack' or 'wwwwwhite' or what nonsense, if not the monster will eat everyone! NO CHEATING ALLOWED.

Devise a strategy whereby these islanders can maximize their survival rate.

If you are stuck, you can scroll down for some hints. If you damn gungho dont want hint then good luck! (cuz this puzzle not easy sia)

HINTSSS:
1) You have one night to strategize! Cannot intonate the word, but can encode the word with a special meaning. Example if you say black, can mean 'the person 2 spaces in front of me is wearing black' and if you say white can mean 'my mother washed my butt' or what nonsense. you get my drift.

2) Keep in mind you have TEN people on the island. The 10th person can see ALL NINE HEADS in front of him, the 9th person can see ALL 8 HEADS in front of him. Also keep in mind certain properties of numbers: perfect square? even/odd number? prime number?

3) The question is to maximize the survival rate. Not ALL will be guaranteed survival. But the answer actually guarantees the survival of 9 people, at least. so if u only get like half survive, you WRONG LIAO.

HAHAHAHA. good luck peeeeps!! if you all think you got the ans and wanna see if you are correct, can text/tweet meeee!!

2010-05-11T10:20:00.000-07:00

long time no blogggg! with twitter blogging seems a tad bit unnecessary now. haha. i actually have an unfinished blog entry i did up awhile ago stored in my drafts, updates about my various outings with pictures, but because i'm sooooo lagging, i got confused about the chronological order of things, and lost some pictures too. thus i decided to give up. just gonna rant about some things today.

exams are over!! but i only had 5 days of rest before internship started. it's day 2 today, and i'm already so darn stressed. boss has like quite a high requirement of me, and i keep feeling afraid that i dont measure up. =S i hope my brain juices are as good as what they perceive(they're always going 'wahhhh' when i tell them i'm in NTU business), cuz i hate being looked down upon. but who doesnt right.

well, but other than work, i've also been meeting up quite alot with my girls. i cant stress how much i love them, ALLLLL of them, for they always make me feel loved and crack me up. i'm not gonna like name them one by one, for i think they all know who they are la huh. =)

i've also had some uh, i guess you could say rough patches, relationship wise. it's a long story, and i dont think anyone truly knows the whole story. maybe my close friends know a little here and there, but nobody has the whole inside info. i dont really like explaining myself to people, so i decided to just keep it from everyone till things had a conclusion. i've had my conclusion, thus i'm blogging about it. i think i am just so lucky to be with who i am with now. i know a relationship needs more than just love to keep it going, and sometimes people fall and struggle, but ultimately how much you decide to try, and how much effort you decide to put in, will depend on how much you love your other half. i know i can be really immature and demanding at times, so i'm really thankful to my bf for putting up with me and loving me so much =)) sometimes i really wonder why, cuz i always think that there is so little to love about me. =S hahaha.

yawnnn. so tired. work tomorrow again!!! work is super sian omg. sigh. blog soon again. nights world.

2010-03-11T09:30:00.000-08:00

then baby came over at night. i loaned him my old guides camp shirt.(he kinda managed to dig it out i dunno how.) and omt, it was like HUMONGOUS. i didnt know i wore something so huge back then!

it even looked big on baby. hahaha.

speaking of guides, i realize that ALOT of people think jenny and i are sisters/look alike. we were just talking about it today! at first i thought people thought so cuz back in secondary school we always wore the same things(same bag, same specs, same shoes) and we were both in guides etc. but apparently even till now, people still think so!! there was this girl in our hall who asked if jenn and i were sisters. like, omt. LOL. so i went to ask the boyf if me and jenny really looked alike. and he said "lol abit la". ... ...omg.

and speaking of jenny, we caught Alice in Wonderland together on friday!! super niceee. i like. =D and there were these 2 funny characters:

i forgot what their english names are(tweedledee and tweedledum???) but i know in chinese they are called 阿傻 and 阿呆. BOL. they are super hilarious. and i kinda like the red queen also, even though she was so evil. i think her head's hilarious too. hahaha.

and there was also johnny depp as the Mad Hatter. he's johnny depp, nuff said. HAHA.

2010-02-04T16:46:00.000-08:00

went to The Rabbit Hole at Dempsey with bernard and mega last saturday. The Rabbit Hole supposedly serves the best food in Singapore. the food WAS fantastic, but so was the BILLL. =S was only there for brunch and it cost us a BOMB. nevertheless the baked scallops i had was still fantastic. i still drool thinking about it, LOLOL.

THE SCALLOPS.

bernard's egg benedict. (he told us how they cooked the eggs till they look like that and i thought it was real interesting. apparently they stir a pot of boiling water till it's like a whirlpool and then crack the egg into it. so the yolk surrounds the white and the egg is still poached.)

mega's grilled salmon.

the one who's never ready for pictures, LOL.

with meg!

for dessert: creme brulee and baked alaska, yummmm.

=))

*************** ***************
anyway, my lady gaga marketing video is uppp!!

hahahaha. okay i wanted to say please dont laugh at me, but i guess that's not very possible cuz it IS quite funny. but the concept's good rightt??? hahaha and the editing too!! MARKETING FTW!! =)))

PS: if you wanna play the video and the music in the background is disrupting, you can press the little triangle at the side and there'll be a drop-down tab where you can pause the song.

2010-01-30T00:21:00.000-08:00

OMG!! 海派甜心 is mad nice!! cho and i are addicted to it! spent the WHOLE, and i mean WHOLE of thursday watching it. we only took toilet and meal breaks, how cool is that! hahaha. think we spent 7 hours non-stop in front of the com screen. craziness. xiaozhu looks good in the show and i like rainie yang's hair!! HAHAHA. and omg i keep crying also, so damn paiseh crying in front of cho. O.o but damn sad the show, LOL.

i am rich!! ahahaa, okay not RICH, but relatively richer. just got my tuition pay and mommy gave me extra 150 bucks for new year's shoppingggg =DD going out with the bf tomorrow to shop! v.long never shop with him already hahaha.

speaking of tuition, my tuition kid is the cutest kid of ALL. hahaha! cuz im taking korean lately so i keep speaking to her in (lousy) korean. and she's having so much fun laughing at me lahhh. and korean is such a cute language. tok-tok-kay-yoh means 'smart', like when used on a kid. and i said that to emily today when she did all her homework correctly and she looked so happy HAHAHA!! and today in the middle of the lesson i stood up and she thought tuition time was up so she asked 'you are going home already?' and i said 'no not yet.' then she replied 'yay!!' and i asked 'you so happy for what?' then she said 'i like you! =)'

it really stuns me how sincere kids can be. no sarcasm, no shyness, just saying what they feel. it awes me sometimes, how they can just ignore any consequences, any fear of probably getting laughed at or rejected for what they say. instead it is i who felt a little weird and embarrassed saying back to her that i like her too.

im glad i came to know emily. to think i once said i'd never teach tuition cuz dealing with kids is such a bother. but now i realize kids teach you things you probably once knew but had forgotten with age.

2010-01-24T23:45:00.000-08:00

this past week was a real eventful week!! had the first ever hall 16 vocal group performance on wednesday. i was so mad nervous and scared. we didnt do really well cuz the sound system was really cui and nobody was really paying attention to us anyway since it was hall day, and everyone's just chatting around at the carpark. but my EVER SO DEAREST people jenny, cho, liyin(who purposely stayed a little longer i guess, just to hear me sing) and the bf came down to support me so i guess im still real glad with the performance HAHA.

then the markeTHINK club had to film our event promotion video which involved dancing a lady gaga routine and guess who was lady gaga???? yes. YOURS TRULY. lol. thought it'd be mad embarrassing and i'd look like such a joke at first, with the super extreme wig/dress/shades etc. and i had to dance to Bad Romance in heels!! but it was a real fun experience in the end(i still think i was a joke though). marketing is such a fun thing to do =))

pics!

the space age look.

gaga isnt supposed to keep smiling but i cant act cool for nuts!

jocelyn from MJ came to teach me the routine. it was SO MAD WEIRD trying tp act sexy. omg. but she said i learnt fast. WHEWWW.

this was mad dumb. i was supposed to snarl at the camera and it took like 10 shots??!!

okay enough pics of me, LOL. showing the rest of the cast:

the dearest girls who keep helping me to pull my dress here and there to avoid, ahem, wardrobe mishaps.

then there was youying's party on saturday. jenn and i went to buy his present, and it's just mad funny shopping for presents with jenn. we went to snoop around at dfs and decided to look at colognes. went around sniffing everything, and jenny said the Tommy Hilfiger brand smelt like 'Tommy ah-mah'. and it did smell kinda old, LOLOL.

in the end we got him stuff from Kiehl's.

jenny came over to my place to make the card. (she also watched my lady gaga video. it was a 13 sec video and she was on the floor with laughter by 5 secs. was it THAT funny!! =S)

i cant show the front of the card. or i will get karmaaaa! haahaha. but it's mad funny. jenny and i made it!! =D

some random pics with jenn and liyin.

jenny always closes her eyes when the camera gives out the flash. -.- oh but she was really nice last night to stay and accompany me at youying's party even though she had another party to rush to. cuz if she left i would be aloneeee. in the end she was late for her other party! i feel badddd. and touched too =DD

okay, end of long blog post. goodnighttt!
