Late night shopping at Marina Square rocks (despite the crowds).

Almost every other shops give discounts up till 30% or more, depending on which. Topshop offers 10% for non-members and 20% for members; Lacoste offers 25% off apparel, bags and shoes; Women's Secrets where I got my stuff from offers 30% storewide discount, so what more not to head down to Marina this weekend!

More info here!

I felt helpless tonight.

2006-11-20T01:17:00.000+08:00

Saw the Wikipedia link on Cowboy Caleb's page and I suddenly missed Bovril! Who doesn't know what's that man!! I grew up on Bovril with porridge which is like super duper yummilious!! Even my fat boyfriend loves it! x) But it was removed from shelves for a period of time but recently brought back; people said it was the Mad Cow's Disease since Bovril was made from beef extract, but the website says "following export ban on beef, but since that was lifted in March of this year...". Yay, I love Bovril.

Look at the posters and you know Bovril is so cool la.

For the Love of Bovril
Unilever

Bovril is the lurrrve!

E-Learning this week, hurray! :)

2006-11-14T00:42:00.000+08:00

So people tell me I don't write about my 'pak tor-ing", so I'm writing a post now about my "date" today! :)

Took a bus to town cos I wanted to see something at FEP. Didn't buy anything though. :(

Headed to Penninsula Plaza cos Dennis wanted to get some plain tees from this shop called Spitfire.

Took 80 to Vivocity specially for this!

And this!

It's a huge strawberry floor mat that costs 100 bucks and I'm soooo gonna psycho my parents to get it for mememe!! Actually these items are from this shop called "Mother Garden". The first time I encountered it was in Yokohama and I lurrrve it so much!! Adorably ~~useless~~ cute stuffed toys and furniture no one can resist, heh. I have this super cuddley seal called Sirotan from there. The website's here.

So we walked around and decided that actually, Vivocity is a damn boring and crowded place, so we took a train back to Boon Lay for dinner at Fish & Co.

Btw, this outlet at Jurong Point has a limited menu and does not serve its signature big Fish Drink! Pfft. :(

Photos that should never see the light of day.

Seafood platter for 2. Yum.

Everyone is starting to post up Christmas-y photos, so here's mine (that have been edited using Picasa, pfft.)!

To end, I just want to say that ONLINE SHOPPING IS THE BANE OF MY LIFE.

Images from here.

2006-10-23T00:46:00.000+08:00

When I finally decide to attempt some tutorial questions,

THEY GOTTA BE SO DAMN TOUGH!?!!!?!!!

And there's nobody online to seek help from.

Boo. :(

2006-10-16T00:56:00.000+08:00

I want:

Sakae buffet,
Kenny Rogers,
Jack's Place,
Zi Char,
Bah Kut Teh and
Frog Leg porridge!

What I worked my guts out for:

$257.46. Yes, that's the damage done. No doubt I feel the pain, but it's something I saved/worked for, so...

Made a reservation for 2 at Sun with Moon Dining last Friday. It was goooood. Though I work in a restaurant myself, I too become the average customer when I'm not in uniform. The place was great; nice ambience and wayyy better than *cough* where I work *cough*.

We got tucked away in the far end of the restuarant in this little cushioned sofa. Table settings were placed in the corner of the table, in other words, self serve.

Starting from top L-R: Kani Tomogo Toji; spinach, crab meat, mushrooms in egg-y soup, Yari Ika Butter Yaki; buttered squid which was real good! The meat was chewy yet was easily digested, Yakiniki; fried beef slices with raw egg yolk and rice, Gyu Tan Miso stew; ox tongue stew. Somehow the dishes we ordered all came in little shallow pots. They were all very nice, especially love the buttered squid and beef rice.

And for desserts!

Top L-R: Peach Punch and Grapefruit Sour (not too good); Tofu cheesecake; which Dennis didn't like but I loved, Sweet Box; which was a combination of 4 dessert items that is changed on a daily basis, and Kyodango & Warabi Mochi; japanese rice cakes which we both like. :)

The damage done:

$122.15! We decided to go dutch so as to "reduce" the damage a little, heh. It was good though! Love the whole experience. Will go back again!

Spent like over $300 in a day, which took me like 54 fucking hours to earn.

School is starting next Monday, and I dread it like I always do.

2006-09-30T00:28:00.000+08:00

Enhancement my ass.

"To provide faster journeys", yes.
Spend 45 minutes waiting for a 30-minute bus ride, hell no!

Remind me again why I should not wait 45 fucking minutes for (ironically) Express fucking 502.

2006-09-21T01:11:00.000+08:00

Eat your hearts out ~~you foolish mortals~~ everyone. xP

Muahahaha!

Photo update for now.

The new(yet again) iPod family:

New iPod shuffle, nano blahblah...

The "remastered" iPod nano, as they call it...

More like a mini and nano combination eh? Seen it today at the Apple store. It's so light and weightless it feels almost fake and nonexistent in my hands. But well, it's sleek and cool and I'm sooo gonna get it.

My favouritest mooncake in the world:

Custard snowskin mooncake one gets to eat once a year from East Ocean. There's one missing because I couldn't resist temptation and gobbled it in the car. :P

I miss you guys so damn much.

Clowning around with the Mickey glove-shaped cookie I made for them! Should have held up the frames I made too. Quick, go take one and send it to me!

Oh-so-cool uniform they get to wear, hurhur. Look so stylo can?

A classic Sesame Street film from the 70's about how crayons are made. I didn't know crayons were made like this until I saw the clip.

(Clicking the image will link you to the page on Youtube.)

2006-08-15T19:59:00.000+08:00

Yes.

We did it. IP was pretty alright, wasn't as quite a disaster as I thought it might be. Well, at least my group doesn't deserve the label 'disaster' as much as *cough* others *cough*. In fact I think we did pretty well (compared to the rest) eh? I guess the sleepless nights and hours spent on it can be considered 'well spent'? But we won't be able to know our grades, so I have no idea if it's justified, heh.

I don't give a f*ck if I sound arrogant or over-confident, but I dare say not all understood the idea of '~~Intergrated~~ Integrated Presentation". So what if the guidelines were duly followed and done? Does the part on Market Research support whatever they recommended? Sheesh. On a lighter note, I think Koh Cheng Mun is damn zai, and I never really intended to be rude to her.

Here's my lovely groupmates and our super beautiful storyboard and faux print ad. Oh, the company we did this for. (link)

Friday. Met Dennis after IP and went home to snooze. Was supposed to meet the rest at 630PM at Wheelock but only woke up at 630. So by the time we got down it was an hour later. I know I'm the birthday girl but I honestly swear I didn't mean to be late! Wanted to dine at Sun with Moon restaurant but it was full, so we settled for Fish&Co. instead. Thanks for the not-so-surprising surprise (oops) but I definitely enjoyed myself.

What they do best at Fish&Co...

A not-so-perfect cake... who's the culprit ah? :P

Lurrrve the cake so damn much. Thank you Fatny, even though you weren't there, Deow understands your intentions very very much. :)

To Lay Chin, Limei and Rebecca - even though I *still* have yet to figure how you guys actually found your way there, I just wanna say a big Thank you for taking time just to pass me the lovely gift. :) Yes it's Strawberry Shortcake, hurhur.

Saturday. Movies, dinner, dessert. Nothing fancy, something we did countless times before, but still I adore your company so so much.

Sweet. :)

Sunday. I got home exactly at midnight and my Dad casually asked, 'What time is it now?' then I replied '12 o clock lor'. And he said, 'Happy Birthday ah'. Haha so funny can.

Wanted to do Coca but they only serve ala carte and not buffet for dinner so we went to Crystal Jade instead. Not sure if it's called CJ Palace, but it's the one on the 4th level at Ngee Ann City. I still want my Coca. For as long as I remember, every birthday we'll either dine at Lei Garden (dim sum) or Coca (steamboat buffet!).

We had an early dinner and went to shop around after that. Bought formal clothes from G2000! Like finally, because I've always worn my Mum's formal blouses for presentations simply because I don't have any formal wear (save for pants/skirts). Oh which reminds me, Koh Cheng Mun commented that the blouse I wore for IP was nice! Hurhur so funny.

In the toilet at CJ. Actually I wore the same outfit for Friday night and Sunday...

And so that sums up my three-day birthday celebration (oops). Am nineteen now; last year of being a "teen" like many said. I guess the age thing comes in after you hit 20? Heh. Anyhow, many thanks to those who sent their greetings. And those who didn't, it's not too late. :P

_____________

Got to mention this. Did anyone see the Singapore Idol trailer where they said something about 'not showing faces because it's time to listen up'? And they also said something about remembering this is a singing competition? Omg I think it's damn amusing, hahahaha.

Can't wait for hols. Can't wait. Can't wait. But I dread it too, cause it means that fatnyfatruiyufenpaulyang are gonna leave. Boo.

2006-08-07T01:26:00.000+08:00

This post is specially dedicated to IP.

~~Fuck you.~~

I'm *so* looking forward to your demise this Friday, and congratulations for making me hate you more than I dread the term exams.

:(

P/S: Somebody's turning nineteen! Wheeee.

2006-07-17T23:05:00.000+08:00

Oh God.

I can't put into words how much I D-R-E-A-D school.

When will this ever end?

2006-07-13T00:39:00.000+08:00

Who in the right sense of mind, would want a 3rd year student with numerous projects and assignments from core modules, to write a

FUCKING 10 PAGE REPORT ON CUSTOMER SERVICE PHILOSOPHY?!

And it's only a fucking IS module?!

Core modules don't even require such shit!

Fuck it fuck it fuck it fuck it fuck it.

Seriously, even Marketing Research doesn't put me off *that* much.

I want to punch my CSC tutor. Really.

2006-07-12T00:17:00.000+08:00

My dad picked me and my mum from Lakeside MRT just now cause I met her after work to get the Gucci bag (see previous entry).

In the car just now, out of the blue, my dad asked me if I know "the blogger mr brown". I was surprised, and exclaimed, "wah, you also know him ah". Then he went on and asked if I knew about the brown fiasco and his suspension etc. And obviously I knew since brown is one of my favourite writers and he's on my "Daily Feeds" on the right column. So we talked about it for a while and my dad even watched some of his videos "about the 4 million smiles" or something (which I wasn't sure cause I think those videos are a little overhyped) but yea, my dad went on to tell me about the education thing about mee pok?? And he did all this in his office/ work time, hurhur. He even laughed at my mum cause she didn't know what we were talking about.

Anyway the point is - my dad read online blogs and the next thing I know, he might be googling Lim Wei Qi Dellia and searching for my blog (no need to cause the URL can be found in desktop downstairs) and finding out about my incessant swearings. Uh. Freaky la! =S But my dad is so cool and he's one of the most intelligent men in my life (next being my brother).

Hello daddy. Thank you for the phone I like it a lot, especially the 3 megapixel camera.

P/S: Don't ask what about Dennis, because he is the most important person in my life. :)

2006-07-10T22:59:00.000+08:00

Dellia is a happy girl because...

I GOT MY TAMAGOTCHI!!

Bought it on Saturday at Action City (Heeren). My mum somehow managed to find out that stocks are coming in on Saturday so I went down all the way from Jurong to get the ~~stupid~~ precious eggy. Paid $34.95 for it. I saw the Japanese version selling at $69.90 at the toy shop at Wheelock and I think it (the English version) retails at $29.90 at Seiyu. Only 3 designs came in and the other two were pink and not-as-nice so I chose the red one with a pair of angel wings, how very cute. Hurhur.

Dennis likes this:

But I think it's quite hard to get this design. :( Nobody to play with my little pet, boo.

I like this design the most among the other few but can't seem to find it leh. Nevertheless I'm happy. :)

Another thing to be happy about:

(I stole the picture off the website above)
Not quite used to the phone yet though.

Think my mum's gonna get this!!

Yay yay yay.

And I like this.

2006-07-03T00:42:00.000+08:00

Oh the adorable shite...

Yes cause they are back. Bigger, better, more colourful, and cute as ever!!

This new ver. 3 allows pets to interact with other pets over a infrared connection (Like handphone hor? Maybe they should have used Bluetooth instead, hurhur). The website says that "your pets can exchange gifts, play games, 'court' each other, get married and even have babies! The level of interaction is truly impressive - if you hold two of the pets near each other, one will leap into the other screen and give flowers." Now tell me, how more adorable can these eggs get.

2006-06-25T00:13:00.000+08:00

Currently doing my Marcom project using Coca-Cola and I happen to chance upon this video...

(link)

Quite amusing eh? I have nothing against CC in fact I like Coke more than Pepsi but, kudos to the person who came up with this. :P

2006-06-19T23:22:00.000+08:00

More photos from Japan...

Street artist (if that's what you call him) in some park.

His many colourful works and yea, they all look kinda alike eh.

Well that's his impression of me. Was wearing the black coat over a purple tee, hm and silver hoop earrings instead of gold. We could give him any amount we wanted to, 100 Yen or 1000 Yen it's all up to you. Me and my cousin gave him 1000 Yen each, which works out to be about 13 Singapore dollars or so.

Metal birds on a metal railing with knitted clothes. How very cute.

Gigantic takoyaki balls from a streetside stall.

Train carriage for women only? (Well that's because they think women don't hurt each other...)

Machine that dispenses coupons in exchange for food at one of the subway stations. Of course you have to pay.

Japanese pancakes like those we have here in Singapore. Look at the amount of red bean paste they give - well, that is the only difference.

Apple store(!!)

Speaking of which, I want an iPod video and a MacBook!

2006-06-13T00:54:00.000+08:00

Come back quick please. I miss you real bad. It's just not the same without you around..

2006-06-11T23:54:00.000+08:00

For you:

There is no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
And no song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a shoebox of photographs with sepia tone loving

Love is the answer
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Why are we here and where do we go
And how come it's so hard
It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing
It's always better when we're together

Mmm, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

And all of these moments just might find a way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings
Or brings new things for tomorrow night you see
That they'll be gone too, too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between
With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be, we'll sit beneath the mango tree now

Yeah, it's always better when we're together
Mmm, we're somewhere in between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together (mmm)

I believe in memories, they look so, so pretty when I sleep
And when I wake up, you look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time
And there is no, no song I could sing
And there is no combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're better together

_____________

It's been a year and guess what, we're better off together.

2006-06-01T12:02:00.000+08:00

Touched down at the Tokyo Narita Airport at 7AM plus. It was freezing (to me) and I had to open up my luggage to get the trench coat out. I can't stand the cold but still it was nice and chilly.

I think in Japan there are so many vending machines everywhere that every 100 metres you walk you can see one. And it's not those cheapo canned drinks like ours here but nicely bottled ones. I bought a total of 7 (or is it 8) bottles, one a day during my stay there. Will put up a picture soon. I hope. The pictures on the right is the market near my aunt's place in Bandobashi... it's clean and nice and everyone is basically friendly.

We happen to catch a parade too! It was some Golden Week celebration parade or what; these people came from very, very far away to Yokohama which was the last stop.

This is some temple we visited at Asakusa. It was during the Golden Week celebrations and it was bleeding crowded. The weather was sunny with the occasional strong gusts of chilly wind thus I had my coat on. To me it was cold but not to the extent that I will shiver and teeth will chatter kind. The temple was smoky with all the incense and smoke, and I tell you temples in Japan make good money. Want an amulet? Pay XXX Yen. Want to make a wish or offering? Pay XXX Yen. But the amulets are nicely packaged, everything speaks of packagingpackagingpackaging in Japan.

The fucking complicated subway lines. More than 30 over lines to Tokyo alone if I'm not wrong... From where we stay at Bandobashi, we gotta take a subway to Yokohama, walk a distance and take more trains to Tokyo and everywhere else. And transport in Japan wipes you clean of your money. Starting rate for taxis is like, 680 Yen? About $7-8 Singapore dollars! A train ride to Tokyo is about 500-600 Yen? Can't remember, too long ago liao. =X

Mos Burger at the street near where we stay. The Mos Burger in Japan is different from that of Singapore. There, the fries in the set meals comes with onion rings. And onion rings isn't like Burger King's. It's a real onion ring with some flour coating, only thing the onion can't be bitten into half that easily. Hurhur. And they serve drinks in glasses and cups! And their milk tea tastes nicer than Singapore's.

Cafes and teahouses are everywhere in Japan. This one called Afternoon Tea is tucked inside a shopping mall in Yokohama (there are about 4 or 5 malls there?). I ordered a Strawberry Shortcake(!) and my cousin got a Mont Blanc, which is a pretty famous cake in Japan made of yam and cream and spongecake and whatnot. Both cakes were yummy and expensive at about 6 or 7 Singapore dollars...

At Tokyo Disneyland.

(Clockwise)
At the entrance of Disneyland; posing with a cowboy hat at one of the specialty shops selling cowboy-ish things at the Westernland; inside one of the little 'houses' where you had to queue for the rides; nice shot of the autumn-looking trees (and myself, hurhur).

Various shots with the characters - Pinocchio's dad, one of the four ghastly-looking Country Bears, Cinderella, Pluto and a guy in pink and orange suit! There were other characters like Goofy, Pinocchio, Woody and this girl from Toy Story, Big Bad Wolf etc, but most of them were swarmed and grabbed by Japanese tourists to Disneyland. Yea, you see school kids in uniform running from one place to another there. Those kids are rich; a ticket costs 5, 500 Yen which is about S$60-70?

(Clockwise)
Happen to catch the 'Hulihuli Ohana Bash' when we came; a shot of one of the 6 lands, Westernland; Mickey in a sailor outfit; some of Mickey's outfits inside the Mickey's Movie Barn where people go in to take pictures with him in different costumes. Me and my cousin each took a polariod shot with him which costs 1, 050 Yen.

Shots of various parts of the place like the World Bazaar Confectionery selling candies, cookies, cakes etc., a pluto-shaped bush and carousels!

Having dinner at one of the restaurants. Yea, the food is as good as it looks. :)

It was fun, and one whole day was not enough to cover the whole of Disneyland. It's okay cause I'll be back!! :P

2006-05-11T21:06:00.000+08:00

Glad to be back in my home sweet home! Will update soon kie. :)

2006-05-02T00:28:00.000+08:00

Okay, high time for an update. I know I sounded angsty in my previous post (like Wenjia said), but hell, ITP is over and I am so damn glad. In the midst of doing my report; achieved 442 out of 1500 words so far. Gahhh.

School started on Monday... final year now and it doesn't feel any different, save for sniggering at freshies asking 'Eh is this canteen 1?'. I think its amusing even though I know I might have asked that question before. Hurhur.

Hm there's only 7 Marketing classes, 4 taking the full Marketing track and the remaining 3 taking dual-track (in other words, me). And well, I regretted not opting for the full Marketing module. But well, it was only after doing all the itineraries and everything during ITP that I realised what I liked doing and what I wanted to do. Oh well. Most people I know studied in a totally different area of specialisation from their work now anyway.

Bought this on Yahoo! auctions for $18. Kinda disappointed cause it was not as big as I thought it would be. But well it's cute and it matches the t-shirt Fanny bought. :)

Oh yes finally. Haha took this at work when I had absolutely nothing to do. Bought it online for only 74 bucks compared to retail price of what, $119? Online shopping rocks la.

Off to Japan tomorrow(!)

Flight's at 2035 so there's time for school still. Gonna have to rush home after class at 4 before heading to the airport. Gonna have to miss school for 6 days because of a miscalculated schedule, and it's the most sian thing to skip school, especially your first tutorials. So now I won't know my classmates and when I return I'm gonna be a full-fledged loner. Hurhur. Going there with my cousin, living with my aunt in Yokohama. I'm coming back on my own though, cause she's staying there till the 24th. Uh yea it's a fully sponsered trip by my parents, keke. I'm a brat. :(

Be back on the 10th so see you again next Wednesday! :)

I'm gonna miss you real bad...

2006-04-22T02:12:00.000+08:00

FUCK ITP. FUCK GIAMSO. FUCK GIORDANO.

FUCK IT. FUCK YOU. FUCK ME. FUCK EVERYTHING.

2006-03-28T23:47:00.000+08:00

My grades were never something I'm proud of, but definitely not something I'm ashamed of.

And my specialisation for Year 3:

I know it's small, just bloody click it. (And there's a lot of white space cos again I used Paint and havent figured how to save only the image itself.)

I guess I'm just lucky, especially with shit grades like mine. Freaks like Yang and Rui with straight ADs should burn in hell. :)

_____________

Guess what I found in my lunch yesterday?
.

.

.

.

.

.

Yes, and I've almost wiped clean my plate of mixed rice. Fuck shit la, I even commented that the food was good. Fucking hell. I was totally sick when I saw what it was. And I still feel a wave of nausea as I'm blogging. UGH!! And I was mean. I called up MOH and they directed me to NEA. An Indian lady picked up my call and I narrated my trauma to her. When I said I found a cooked cockroach in my food after eating, she went "Oh my God". I was surprised, cos I thought they should be used to hearing such things. Oh well. She said she'll get back to me after asking for details like my contact number, name and the place where the incident took place.

Thank God I didn't puke my guts out or shitted my intestines away yesterday or today.

What I've been doing at work.

This is just the draft copy and one of the many that I've completed. The manager will go through it and then photocopy them onto coloured paper before putting them on the shelves.

I guess that's all I need to blog about. And yes, ITP sucks shit.

2006-03-20T01:08:00.000+08:00

Don't give a flying fuck to what others think or say. All I know is that everything is worth its price and I am happy as can be because I have you. And you, can only envy me.

2006-03-18T23:42:00.000+08:00

Happy today 'cos it's been a long, long time since the four of us sat down for a meal together. Even though the mum wasn't eating, it just felt good seeing the family sitting together again. I am hopeful. I just need to leave the rest to God.

*Edit: It's home sweet home on Sunday. Everybody say yay! :)

2006-03-12T23:45:00.000+08:00

Red Junk Food I'm a pepper tee.

Yea, everyone knows that:
1) I'm a pepper.
2) Pepper is hot.
3) Therefore, I am hot.

Hurhurhur.

Red Te Cojo Te Mojo Supreme tee.

Whatever the heck that means.

2006-03-12T01:00:00.000+08:00

And so the final term exams came and went. One word to sum it all, no, make that two - fucking screwed. Not looking forward to receiving my grades at all. I hope I'll be able to reduce it to ashes in time before my parents see it.

Started my attachment with Giamso International Tours on Monday along with 2 other persons, Melanie and Kelvin. The things we do are yes, dead boring and monotonous. I'm supposed to 'beautify' the travel brochures and itineraries, and I have to do them in both English and Chinese versions(!) The English version is of course way easier than the Chinese, because I have to type out the Chinese words by reading from the hard copy itself because the company do not have any soft copies at all. Even so, some are in diskettes (wth?!) and the laptop I'm using do not have a A: drive or whatever. So I have the type them out manually and edit any errors, add pictures and basically make the brochures more attractive. In 5 and a half days, I've visited Fujian, Shanghai, Yunnan, Kunming, Jiuzhaigou and Guilin. Heh. Seems like I've been there myself la.

Caught Underworld Evolution yesternight. I don't know about others, but I quite liked the movie despite my ignorance about vampires and werewolves. Kate Beckinsale is like, hothothot. Oh, and I think Kate Beckinsale and Liv Tyler look alike, although I think Selene (Kate Beckinsale) looks way sexier in those black tights than the elf-ish Arwen (Liv Tyler).

Selene wins hands down la. Hot as hell. (p/s: I have nothing againist LOTR).

I don't enjoy visiting people in the hospital. It's not that I do not care or am plain lazy. I do care, but I don't exactly know what to say to the patient, save for asking plain dumb questions like "You okay?" and neither can pretend I understand what they are going through because I don't. The things you can ask are basically dumb. "Are you cold?", "You want to drink water?", "How're you feeling?", Pain a not?" and all other dumb questions along the line. Have I ever mentioned I fucking hate it when people ask me if "I'm fine" when I'm obviously not, e.g. black face, red eyes and nose, keeping completely quiet etc. I hate visiting because I will never understand the pain patients feel, and there is really nothing much to do to reduce their pain or discomfort, and all I feel is uselessness. It hurts the most when the person lying on the hospital bed is your own mother, in pain and discomfort, and it is not within your means to make her feel any better.

Today was the first time I saw my Dad kiss my Mum (on the forehead) in my entire eighteen years on Earth.

Do they call this 患难见真情?

Techie me (Hardly) wants this:

Upcoming Nokia model, N80

and this:

Apple iPod!

2006-02-16T00:33:00.000+08:00

Well I guess here's the long overdue post ~~everyone has been waiting for~~ I owe everyone.

My tests grades are horrible; managed 71/100 for EC, 25/50 for OM and I failed the rest (IEF, AAA, PMKT). My first paper's coming up next Friday and I haven't started revising anything. Screw it man, every term's cursed. Anyway, did our last and final presentation on Monday for PMKT. I think and hoped we did good 'cause I'm banging on it to push up my PMKT grade.

Can't wait for our finals to be over even though we don't have much of a holiday to speak of. Am attached to Giamso International Tours at People's Park for 7 good weeks. Gonna be there on attachment with 2 other persons I haven't heard of. Hope they're good fun though... don't wanna go through shit for 7 bloody weeks. My LO told me that we're gonna sell tour packages, do registrations and stuff like that. Doesn't sound too bad hor. And the pay's $500, one of the higher few I think. Really hope I get to learn something useful from this ITP programme... I know I'm gonna sound childish, but gahhh I hate school.

Hm. Oh, Chinese New Year. Yea it's over but it was pretty alright I guess. Mahjong, dai dee, shark's fin, abalone, steamboat, festive goodies, red packets, visiting, flavoured carbonated water, on-the-surface new year greetings, I Not Stupid Too and hell lots of texting and calling over to M'sia pretty much sums up this year's holiday. This year's collection hit all-time high too, hurhur.

Had my hair cut last Saturday. Finally I look a little different with short fringe. I like my haircut even though I don't know how to blow my hair like how they did it at the salon. The hairstylist said I should rebond my hair again cause it's kinda messy and erm, disorganized. I want to, but $350 is way too inaffordable right now, and all the times before or after.

Caught Jarhead yesterday, not too bad a movie. Lots of memorable and funny lines. One of my favourites:

"Suggested techniques for the marine to use in the avoidance of boredom and loneliness. Masturbation. Re-reading of letters from unfaithful wives and girlfriends. Cleaning your rifle. Further masturbation. Re-wiring Walkman. Arguing about religion and meaning of life. Discussing in detail, every woman the marine has ever fucked. Debating differences, such as Cuban VS Mexican, Harlys VS Hondas, left VS right-handed masturbation. Further cleaning of rifle. Studying the mail-order bride catalogue. Further masturbation. Planning a marine's first meal on return home. Imagining what a marine's girlfriend and her man Jody are doing in the ally or in a hotel bed."

I don't think it's the exact words used in the movie, and it's not entirely because of the words but the way Jake Gyllenhaal's character, Anthony 'Swoff' Swofford, says it in that monotone voice. I guess it's worth the 7 bucks.

Some photos to end with...

One of the gowns I totally adore from Vera Wang. (I know it's pathetic. I used paint to edit it okay?)

Mary Alex in paisley by LOOP NYC. Anyone knows where I can get this?

I'm sooo gonna get this.

Taken at the busstop near Holland Village. Dellia so comical right? The white thing I'm holding is actually a plastic bag containing sweets from Party With Us. Hurhurhur.

Oh, forgot to mention that I slipped and fell while skipping up the stairs at my grandma's on the second day of CNY. Damn pain la, I cried. Hit my shin bone or something. It's healing now and I fucking hope there won't be a scar. My right knee already has a damn scar from those Esplanade days.

A bling bling Junk Food tee for CNY.

My cousin bought a puppy for $350. It's a naughty boy but he gets so adorable at times. About 5 months old I think. Looks like the dog we used to have when I was a little kid.

~~Damn, I'm cute.~~ Lalala...

Dinner at Fish & Co. yesterday at Wheelock, and hell was it crowded. Luckily we went earlier around 6. Dinner was goodgoodgood. :)

I guess it happens when you least expects it to. Still have yet to completely digest the fact that this is all reality now. What can I say? I am overwhelmed by everything, am gonna bear in mind that baby, you're mine to call.

2006-01-04T23:47:00.000+08:00

I know I should be studying, but a few lines won't kill. (Okay, yes I know it will but what the heck.)

(May contain spoilers.)

That's Nicole before/after her makeover; I like her along with Kyle and Jayla.

The makeover episode has got to be my favourite among the entire season's running. I get equally excited about the makeovers and looking at them makes me wanna get one myself too.

Excuse me while I go ~~whine at my mum~~ continue with my revision. So damn bloody screwed.

2005-12-31T02:29:00.000+08:00

Term break is almost over, and I haven't touched a single subject. So damn bloody screwed la. Been going out everyday since the break started. I guess... I just never learn. Wait for the post after my common tests and see how I die okay?

Some pictures I took over the week. Pretty much sums up my days I suppose. Oh, must scroll down for something pretty damn big hor.

Look what Fanny got me for Christmas!

A David and Goliath tee from NUM! This is my favourite design among all they have. Heard that there's only one piece, and it's mineminemine.

I like. I like. I like. :) ~~It's true, by the way.~~

This is my funnybunny! I bought it from this nice girl who made funnybunny herself. She makes pretty nice stuff too, pouches and all. I got the link from Grace, so thanks!

Florida Garden Party White, one of the Papillo 2006 collection. I wanna buy this, but I don't quite like the bright blue buckles leh. Wonder if it's possible to change it to black or something.

Same design in Gizeh. Which is nicer ar?

Hm I guess this would be my last post for the year 2005, and I reckon this picture is pretty cool to end it with. Tsk, I hope I get tomorrowed because of this picture. Kidding, hurhurhur. Here goes.

Tada! Hell, it looks damn real can?! Poor Nora got a shock when she opened the box. And it was erm, too long it kinda protruded from the box they had to use aluminium foil to cover the whole damn thing. A group of lady customers brought it with them today for one of their girlfriend who's gonna get married soon, I think. And if I'm not wrong, the box says Mezza9 so I would suppose it came from there. Their cakes and pastries are delicious; tried it before. Of all the cakes I've seen so far (Boobs, bikini tops, marzipan faces etc) , this is undeniably the best.

A close-up.

I like blogging, and I don't think I'll stop anytime soon. But for now, I'm too lazy to write a reflection or anything of that sort. I won't say 2005 has been great or anything, but it certainly will be unforgettable. Of course it will be unforgettable. Pretty tired liao, wanna go zzz. Eh, enjoy the last of 2005 and I hope the year ahead would be much better for ~~everyone who reads my blog~~ everyone!

P/S: I hope the amount of photos won't lag your computer. Don't kill me if get hang or anything hor. Cheers!

Some anonymous person posted a comment on this blog entry I had months ago. Here's what it says:

Click on it for a larger view, or if you're too lazy it reads:

"In Love with this terra depressing "almost here" Song?!? - Sorry, I beg your pardon, its the worst ever I got to hear, and Delta has done herself a total disgrace with that...Brian McFadden is the worst singer I heard (he cant even really sing, thats it... sorry!) - Its totally sickeining and sadening at the same time! - I Knoow many music fans who just hate it, not only me, sorry. I never want to hear anything of this horrible combination ever again. Please listen to Delta alone, its a big difference, and its the worst "duet" of the OZ Starlets, Tina Arena did much better, but Brian, no thanks...Just anutter nightmare when I first heard it on "mistaken identity" I bought as an OZ import.I'm really sorry to say all this, real sorry. -Currently EX Delta Fan, thanks to this horrible Brian McFadden, made me real sad beyond words/belief! - Not sure anymore if I touch Delta ever again... :((("

Hurhur, I'm not offended, in fact I am pretty amused. It's not like I will stop listening to Jay just because there are a thousand and one Jay haters out there.

*Ahem*

Hail Jay. :P

2005-12-24T15:08:00.000+08:00

Dear God, I promise I won't fall asleep in lectures or tutorials anymore.

~~(even if I do, I'm gonna lie on the table so no one can see my face or attempt to blackmail me with absolutely hideous photos AND videos!)~~

2005-11-28T00:41:00.000+08:00

It's official.

~~I'm gay.~~

Twice the gayness?

Why can't they have a pink AND brown one? Quick rush down to New Urban Male and grab any two pairs of Havaianas range and get a $5 Havaianas voucher! It's valid till 1st March 2006 and I think it's pretty cool 'cause their 2006 collection's gonna come in soon (subjective, hurhur)! By the way me and Fanny busted the myth about the NUM peeps today! So really, we can't judge men by the way they dress. Check out the NUM blog here too, but I won't tell you who I think is cute. Hurhur, ~~I'd get~~ already got slaughtered liao. Got Michael Buble's Home playing in the background (which might interrupt with all your mp3s), just like their webbie.

2005-11-25T23:56:00.000+08:00

Just got home from a dinner at Crystal Jade with my family. Dad got a new car from his company, a Nissan Latio. Looks something like this (in the exact same colour):

Yea, I know it's kinda small but click on it for a larger view if you want. If I displayed a bigger size it will distort my blog template. It's pretty cool, quite spacious and lotsa leg room. One thing I dislike about it is the colourful, flashy stereo. It changes colour but all the colours suck. Kinda like the visual thingy for Windows Media Player you know?

School is well, the same. I hardly do my tutorials and everything is like so tough to me. I think I'm gonna get screwed by AAA and IEF. Taking French for IS and damn, it's tough. I have a presentation on French culture two weeks later and we have to present our family AND make a dialogue in French in front of the whole class. And we gotta memorise it. Ughs.

Hm, had to make our ranking few days ago. I ranked Marketing and Tourism and Resort Management as my first choice, followed by Tourism and Marketing and Marketing itself was my third. Yes, there's a difference between my first and second choice especially if I were to secure a place for the 6-month attachment. As my elective, I ranked Company Law (hurhur) as my first, Buyer Behaviour as my second and Marketing Communication as my third, whatever the hell is that.

Oh, met up with Guohao, Elena, Kelvin, Sam and Guang Yang last Saturday. For a change we went to Newton to eat instead of our usual Burger King. Hurhur. Ordered stingray, 20 sticks of satay, chilli kangkong, chicken wings, oyster omelette and some funny shell thingy which requires you to suck the meat/flesh out of the shell. It kinda tastes weird but somehow Elena likes it a lot. I wonder why. Took a bus to Holland after dinner and we chill at Settlers Cafe. It's located at some ulu block away from all the restaurants and all. It's a pretty cool place, you get to play lotsa games, board games card games noisy games etc. The menu is a cool Monopoly-formatted board with the items and description written at the sides. You can even purchase their menu for $25 I think.

(I don't know what else I should blog about actually.)

Oh yar, fuck man. I left my bloody laptop at Long John's today after eating there with Rui and all. Fuck I almost died. We wanted to head to Wheelock to look at Crumpler bags for Yang and we were somewhere at Scotts when I suddenly blurted out, "Where's my laptop?" and everyone kinda kept quiet and I went something like, "FUCK! I LEFT IT AT LONG JOHN'S!" and I just started running in the other direction back to Far East. And according to Yu Fen, she never saw me ran so fast before. Haha, but thank God it was still around. The person was just about to clear our table... Man I swear I almost died there.

Okay lemme post up some photos, otherwise my blog would be so bloody boring. Okay la, not as if the photos will make it any more interesting but whatever.

Gonna buy this pouch from Yufuii. Their items are handmade and the prices are reasonable. Go check it out!

I'm a pepper 'cause I'm hot. Hahaha...

I can't remember when I wore this. I think it was Thursday.

This is my blog so all you get to see are my photos. :P

2005-11-22T23:19:00.000+08:00

I think I love you so much it began to ~~hurt~~.

2005-11-08T00:48:00.000+08:00

I'm a Pepper!

Finally a Junk Food tee! There was the jacket in the same print too, but kinda expensive at $109. I like this print a lot...

_____________

Heard this song over the radio in my dad's car when he came to pick me up from the MRT station after work one day. I like it a lot... although it's sang from a guy's perspective. *shrugs*

Wonderful Tonight
Damage

Tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight
It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long brown hair
And then she asks me do I look alright
And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight

We go to a party (we go out)
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady (beautiful lady) who's walking around with me
And then she asks, me do I feel alright
And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight

Tonight, tonight, tonight

I feel wonderful, because I see the love that's right in your eyes,
And the wonder of it all, is that you just don't realise how much I love you

It's time to go home now yes it is
And I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys
And she helps me into bed
And then I tell her, as I turn down the lights
I say darling, you were wonderful tonight
Hey hey
I said darling, u were wonderful tonight

You look wonderful, you're everything I need and more
You look wonderful, so beautiful tonight
You look wonderful, you never leave me wanting more
You look wonderful, so beautiful tonight

You look wonderful, you're everything I need and more
You look wonderful, so beautiful tonight
You look wonderful, you never leave me wanting more
You look wonderful, so beautiful tonight

2005-11-03T03:07:00.000+08:00

Because I know he will never disappoint me like how ~~you~~ others do. He's the faithful one, always there when I need him, 24/7. He doesn't mind if I wet him with my tears, he doesn't say things that will break my heart. His mere presence works wonders. And I know for sure this time, he wouldn't give me false hopes like ~~you~~ how others do.

2005-10-31T01:01:00.000+08:00

This thing I'm feeling right now - what is it, can you tell me? I've gotten all too familiar with it for the past few months now, yet I can't quite make out what is it. This throbbing pain I feel, it tugs so hard it literally hurts my physical self. What kind of pain is this, can you tell me? Can you stop it?

2005-10-29T02:38:00.000+08:00

"I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair. I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare. I hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind. I hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme. I hate it, I hate the way you're always right. I hate it when you lie. I hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry. I hate it that you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call. But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you. Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all."

10 Things I Hate About You, off here.

2005-10-26T16:15:00.000+08:00

Just some random pictures taken using my handphone which are long overdue. Have fun browsing, I hope.

At the coffeeshop having 'zhi cha' on my 18th with Yufen, Fanny, Yang, Rui and Paul!

The cake from Patissier the guys surprised me with on my 18th. Don't underestimate this little thing; it actually made me cry. I'll never forget what exactly happened. Really really happy that night. Thanks once again! :)

Sobbing after they presented the cake...

Grinning like an idiot after all that silliness.

Yufen, me and Fanny at Essential Brews.

Tofu blocks we got from the capsule machines!

Drew this on one of our MSN conversation windows. Look like the real thing above not?

Voodoo dolls! Who the hell makes voodoo dolls that can actually look this cute?!

Little Brown Bun a.k.a. 小馒头 stall at ECP. Yum.

Jack the bobbly head! Yep, it's Jack from Tim Burton's The Nightmare before Christmas.

This is how my hair looks now. Okay, I know the picture is reddish and all, but still can see a bit of the highlights right? Took this at Nooch during dinner with Guohao and all.

MySG trio.

Al fresco dining at MySG. It didn't used to look like that before.

Is it only human to be afraid of losing something you possess?

It's always the case, isn't it? To be afraid of losing something only when you possess it. When it is out of your reach, you pine, you yearn, you hope - that it would one day be yours. And when you finally do own it, the only thing you're afraid of, is to lose that possession of it. So tell me, what's the point then, if you live in constant fear (instead of living happily now that you actually own it) that you will eventually lose it someday, somehow, some way or another?

She got there first.

2005-10-22T00:47:00.000+08:00

Jay's 6th album November's Chopin is ready for pre-order! *screams* Okay, I honestly have no idea about it until Fanny sms-ed me today around 1+. So pai seh, I don't even know anything about his new album at all can? To think I call myself his fan. Heh. I saw the MV for one of the songs (which I suppose is 夜曲) at Heeren today! I stepped into Heeren and I heard this oh-so-familiar voice, looked up at the screen and there was Jay! I got so excited I ran into Heeren to check things out. Hurhur.

Anyway, check out this link if you wish to find out more. Meanwhile, I shall go ogle at him out cause I managed to download the MV from the forum itself. Yay, I love Jay. Yum.

_____________

Happy eighteen, Yufen! Hope you had fun with your celebrations! :)

2005-10-17T23:58:00.000+08:00

So guess where did we go today?

Yep, the long awaited Ben & Jerry's! We went to the Suntec outlet cause I read from He Jin's blog that it's already open. We went there last week but we couldn't find the shop itself, so we asked the information counter and they said it's not open yet. Anyway. We had already tried most of the flavours like Chunky Monkey, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Cherry Garcia, Phish Food, Chocolate Fudge Brownie and all since these are all readily available in tubs at most supermarkets.

The menu is very limited, compared to this.

So we took quite a while to decide what to have. In the end, we chose:

Create-your-own Core sundae! The staff there were ultra friendly, and surprising, they are all females too. The core sundae allows you to choose 2 flavours of your choice (Mint Chocolate Chunk and New York Super Fudge Chunk), comes with a choice of hot fudge or caramel or both, and a variety of toppings such as mini M&M's, nuts, chocolate sprinkles topped with the oh-so-fattening whipped cream. I love whipped cream by the way. We ordered a Berry berry Sorbet Splash too. Can't remember the price though (not I pay one ma), think it's $7.50 for the Sorbet Splash. Forgot how much was the sundae. Okay la, to be honest I think the items are pretty average. Perhaps they should expand their menu and choices a little. Introduce flavours which are not easily available in our local supermarkets and all. Really hope they would.

_____________

Hey. Just wanna tell you I had fun today. Really enjoyed your company the whole day. Thanks for the little treat too, it means so much to me. I may spite you a lot and say things I don't mean at all, but I just want to let you know that I appreciate everything you've done for me so far. The sacrifices you made, the time spent with me, the little things you say and do. They mean so much, and I want you to know that I really appreciate them all. It feels great being with you, enjoyed your company so, so much...I hope you feel the same way too. :)

2005-10-16T03:49:00.000+08:00

Useless random facts:

1) I totally detest the feeling of short-lived happiness. Don't give me something only to take it away later (link).

2) I hate fucking hate it when anyone gives me false hopes, unintentionally or not. Don't promise anything if you don't intend to fulfil that promise.

3) I hate losing.

4) I have an ego too huge for my own damn good.

5) I don't really have a thing for Business (Studies) and I have zero idea why am I in the course.

6) I cry to make myself feel better, even though I hate the fact that I tear easily at the slightest things.

7) There are times I have no idea what am I doing to myself. Mental and emotional torture are one of the worst punishments around.

8) There are times when I absolutely despise and hate myself to the core that I just wanna silt my wrists and bleed to death.

9) I hate studying, projects and exams.

10) I have a thing for making sure people around me (including myself) spell/pronounce words correctly. E.g. "weird" spelt as "wierd". No no, I'm not trying to prove I speak and spell perfect English, but somehow it gets on nerves especially when people can't spell correctly. What's a dictionary for man?

11) I contradict myself. A lot.

12) I'm weak as hell emotionally. I succumb to almost anything. Serve me right for being a softie. This heart melts like hot wax you know.

13) I really wish to study law.

14) I think expressing your love in mandarin is extremely romantic. Ha, actually I only thought so after 道名寺 said these words to 杉菜 on 流星花园：“我喜欢你，喜欢迷恋到自己都觉得莫名其妙…在我眼中，看到的就只有你一个人。我知道我很烦，可是我要你知道，只要你跑得掉的话，我一定会追到你…不管你跑到任何地方，就算是地狱也好，不管你跑到天涯海角，我一定要追到你…我要你知道一件事，就是我要定你了。” Not the exact, but somewhere close. So romantic hor? I'll melt if anyone actually says anything close to me. Hurhur.

p/s: Will add on more when I remember.

So I haven't been updating proper for quite some time, and well I'm not apologetic. Hurhur. Plain lazy really. I guess it's time I update proper.

Term exams came and went. Badly done, didn't study at all. Pretty much last minute cramming. Received our results last Thursday. My GPA dropped from 2.7 to 1.8. Says pretty much about my grades eh? 3 Ds, 1 C and 1 B, which went to BLAW of course. Well I'm disappointed I didn't nail the AD for it like I said I wanted to, but then it's obviously my fault that I didnt put in effort for the exam. I kinda did it shoddily. HRM was D+, didn't know what happened there. Thought I would get a C at least. FMGT was D too. To think I promised Mark Tan I'll get B (or is it C?) for it. Too ashamed to face him liao. If I see him around in school, I'll probably hide or run away. Hurhur. And the new timetable's out already, pretty relieved we're gonna be in the same class again. Whoo. Some classes changed totally and some others had to break up. I guess TB22's damn lucky la.

This term holidays are gonna be over in about 2 weeks, and I must say it didn't felt like 5 weeks had passed at all. I'm either at work or out roaming the streets either in town or somewhere around Marina Square with you. Am still working at My Secret Garden at Middle Road by the way.

Oh, I so have to mention this. There are new Ben and Jerry's outlets popping out all around. There's one at United Square at Novena (a disappointment, really) and I read from the papers that there's gonna be one opening in Great World City and another in Suntec. We went to check out the one at US last week (I think) and hell, I was so fucking disappointed. It's so damn small can, probably able to accommodate about 10-12 people or so? And I guess the timing was wrong, the seats were all filled with either schoolkids or housewives. Not like I have anything against them, but I just got super sian when I saw it was crowded. So we left without even buying a single item. The menu is pretty limited compared to the one I saw on the website..I don't know if the one at the zoo offers a wider range, but I certainly hope they do, if not I'm gonna get super pissed and disappointed all over. Really dying to go to the one at the zoo. Next week maybe? *Hint hint*

Saw this ring in The Sunday Times few weeks back. Fell in love with it at first sight, and the price? $3,500. It's from Mauboussin, a French brand if I'm not wrong. Saw the ring on display on Tuesday at Takahimaya but somehow it didn't look as nice as it did when I saw it in the papers. Thought the diamonds were embedded into the ring, but it kinda pops out, so maybe that's the reason why? Dunno, I still like it a lot.

7 packets of WONKA NeRdS, 8 bloody flavours. That's Strawberry, Grape, Pinktricitic, Lemonade, Wild Cherry, Watermelon, ElectroOrange and Cola. Tsk, I think it's damn pretty la.

I like this top a lot! Found it online, either from ASOS or Urban Outfitters, forgot which liao. I really like it damn a lot can? I want...

Been meaning to post it for a long time, but I keep forgetting. Fanny made this for my birthday, and it's titled 'happy del & fan'. Nice hor? And notice that I'm on the right side (or is it left?) for 14 out of all 16 photos?

Hm lastly, should I get the iPod nano? $438 for a 4GB one, dunno if I should or not leh. What if the same thing happen to it like what happened to my bloody mini?! I'll just slit my wrists and die man! I have to slog 87.6 bloody hours for it la. How how how? I can't quite decide. And please, do not ask me to get a Creative player. I'm not a Creative fan. No way am I gonna get one of those. I love iPods, despite my bad experience with them.

Oh, look! Another 'upgraded' iPod!

*Edit: Forgot to mention that I coloured and highlighted my hair quite a few weeks back, on the 23rd of September. I love the colours, though they make me look a little er, wild. No photos of it yet. Will post up one soon.

I say, go catch Corpse Bride. Watched it today and I enjoyed it thoroughly, especially the musical scenes. Oh, I think Emily is prettier than Victoria though.

Victor's wedding vows:
With this hand I will lift your sorrows.
Your cup will never be empty, for I will be your wine.
With this candle, I will light your way into darkness.
With this ring, I ask you to be mine.

Faith is what I need. Hope is what I have to keep this relationship going. I don't know if I was being cruel by saying those words I spoke to you yesterday, all I know is that it hurts to see those tears form at the corner of your eyes. You tried to hide, but I could feel the pain you felt then. I believe you felt the pain I feel too, when I said those words to you. I know it's hard to break this; I don't think I'll ever find the courage to say those words again. "I am sure we make a good us." you said the other day, and deep down I know we will make good this relationship. Time together isn't long I know, but it's enough time for me to realise what I want and how much you actually mean to me.

You got me so addicted now I just can't get enough of you.

2005-09-22T15:40:00.000+08:00

Remember what you told me yesterday, and all the days before. How do you expect me to believe you if you keep doing this to me time and time again? You know how much I hate it; you know how I can figure things on my own even if you kept it from me deliberately. You gave me hope, you made me believe in us; yet you're the one who willingly shatter my hopes all the same.

Remember what you told me yesterday afternoon, and know if you meant whatever you said, remember my dear.

"他曾经熄灭了她的希望，如今又把希望重燃。"

2005-09-17T03:01:00.000+08:00

This won't work, I know it won't. But I hate to give up because you mean too much to me now. I apologize if I made you unhappy without knowing it, if I had a bad attitude and temper, if I caused you to get into unnecessary trouble..and I don't know what else I did that I should apologize for. I don't know what to do anymore, it gets extremely frustrating when things like that happen and all the hopes I had before just falls apart..

I always try so hard to suppress my feelings, which is very difficult for someone like me..I try to act nonchalent and pretend like I don't care when deep down, I do. Yes, I admit it eats into me a hell lot and affects everything I do, but I guess I have no right to complain because afterall, this is what I chose to do. And this is the price I have to pay. Worth it? Sometimes yes, sometimes no, I don't really care - because looking at you just makes me forget about everything else, and whatever feelings I felt before wouldn't matter anymore. This is what you can do to me. This is how you affect me and my life if you don't already know. I'm not perfect, am nowhere near perfection either. But I believed I tried to make things work out..you don't know how I want this to work out so badly. And I hope that, despite everything that has happened in between, I still brought you some kind of happiness you can't find somewhere else. A kind of happiness that's unique to you, me - us.

Here By Me
3 Doors Down

I hope you're doing fine out there without me
'Cause I'm not doing so good without you
The things I thought you'd never know about me
Were the things I guess you always understood
So how could I have been so blind for all these years
And this I only see the truth through all this fear living without you

And anything I have in this world
And all that I'll ever be
It could all fall down around me
Just as long as I have you right here by me

I can't take another day without you
'Cause baby, I could never make it on my own
I've been waiting so long just to hold you
And to be back in your arms where I belong
I'm sorry I can't always find the words to say
When anything I've ever known gets swept away
'Cause I don't go a lot

And everything I have in this world
And all that I'll ever be
It could all fall down around me
Just as long as I have you right here by me

And every day alone I see
Some is standing still for me
And you're not here
I'm sorry I can't always find the words to say
When anything I've ever known gets swept away
'Cause I don't go a lot

And everything I have in this world
And all that I'll ever be
It could all fall down around me
Just as long as I have you right here by me

Because I take comfort in little things like this. The second you sent me so far - simple, effortless, yet enough to calm the raging storm inside me.

2005-09-04T02:32:00.000+08:00

Times like these when I don't know if I should hang on or let go.
Times like these when I have no clue if this will ever work out.
Times like these when I desperately need the assurance and yet there isn't any.
Times like these when I despise myself for not being able to hold back on my tears.
Times like these when I'm at my most vulnerable and helpless.
Times like these when I need to know if you meant the things you said to me.
Times like these when I know for sure you wouldn't give up anything for me.
Times like these when I hate myself for being nothing more than a burden.
Times like these when I wonder if you have any idea the amount of pain inflicted upon this heart.
Times like these when I wish you feel the pain this heart has to bear.
Times like these when I want you to hold me in your arms and tell me everything will be fine.
Times like these when the faith falls, hope diminishes, and everything else shatters.

2005-09-03T01:07:00.000+08:00

Some silly cow drank a whole spoonful of vinegar just because I said he needed it.

You made me believe in love.
Our love.
Don't let me lose faith in it.

Off the Victoria's Secrets website,

Argh, her bod is damn nice can?! I wanttttt! Was looking at the VS online shop's bikinis when I saw this. The black bikini is really simple, but this model made it look so damn hot. Omg, damn nice la. Anyone knows her name or something? Leave a tag if you know k! Fuck, her bod damn niceeeee. *drools*

2005-08-26T00:59:00.000+08:00

New template. Nice, no?

2005-08-25T20:28:00.000+08:00

Currently into Junk Food tees. They're like damn nice can. Price also equally nice. Hurhur. The only place in Singapore I know that sells them is Queen Couture at Heeren. I think it costs about $55 per tee at least. I've got one from there, but it's not Junk Food. Think its something Urban Funky dunnowhat. Wish I have a friend that lives in the US so he/she can buy these gorgeous tees for me and mail it over. Bahhhhh. Anyway, check out my faves:

From Kitson,

Pepe le Pew! The foul-smelling skunk, if I'm not wrong.

From 80sTees.com,

Save meeeee (from all these gorgeous tees).

Root beer, and its brown!

I can't find a superhero tee with my all-time favourite Spidey on it though. Hm, I wonder why.

A&W?

Alvin and the Chipmunks!

Okay, I know my drawing sucks and I don't have some high-tech programme to draw this proper I have to resort to using paint on the computer. But what I want to say is clear - SCREW ECD. Fuck, by far it's the WORST project I've ever done in my whole NP life. By the way, it stands for Enterprise Creation and Development. Something about entrepreneurship and businesses. Fuck, I swear if I ever start my own business, I'll hire someone to do up my business plans for me!

2005-08-20T22:25:00.000+08:00

Because I know you wouldn't give up anything for me. Am I worth nothing more than a penny in your pocket?

爱疯了
戴佩妮

不敢问却一直想问你心里藏着什么人
不敢猜却一直想猜若回去有没有可能
我不够完整 你给的从来不够完整
连一个语气都无法确认
这种缺乏是什么象征
不开灯我不要开灯
我身边容不下别的人
不锁门我不要锁门
你回来是一种可能
我那么的认真
去思考你对我的认真
是多么伤害你
结果始终是疑问
我爱疯了我疯到自己痛也不晓得
放弃了保护自己的责任
放弃了抵抗脆弱的天份
我不管了我不管这伤口能不能愈合
选择了你也许是错的人
选择了包容你的不安分
请尊重我的

2005-08-18T00:23:00.000+08:00

I guess it's time I update proper. Lot of things to write about, but I can't remember all of them though..

Hm, common tests were badly done. Failed HRM 21.5/50 and FMGT 23/50. CMA was 59 or 60; can't remember, and BLAW was 76 I think. Got back ECD today, 31/60. Lost marks for my MCQs, only 8/20. Damn it. Hope I won't get a D grade or something. Still struggling with FMGT and CMA. Ugh. I hate figures. First term paper on the 9th September - BLAW. CMA on the 12th, HRM on the 15th and FMGT on the 16th. Stopped working temporarily till the exams end. Gotta pia like mad from the 19th to 24th to ensure that I get money to spend during the hols. Dunno if I should continue working at Mysg. I enjoy working there most of the times cause I don't know why, but the thought of working with new crew all over is quite sian. Plus I think Fanny and Yufen wants to leave too. Gahhhh don't know don't care (for now). Wait till exams end then say.

Went to celebrate my birthday with the Fanny, Yufen, Paul, Rui and Yang on Friday after ECD test. Went to Holland for dinner. Initially wanted to dine at Essential Brew, but changed our minds after looking at the prices. Then guess what? We decided to whack (er, correct spelling?) zhi cha at the coffee shop! Hurhurhur. Ordered venison meat, oatmeal prawns, chilli kang kong, zhao pai tofu, BBQ stingray and the yam ring which, according to the self-proclaimed zhi cha guru Fanny Lim, sucked. I felt so honoured! Rui and Yang both shell a prawn for me, and Rui gave me a peanut (okay, cashew nut to be precise)! A nut! I'm rich. Fwah, 600K leh. Anyway after dinner, we headed to Essential Brew again for some drinks to digest our bloated tummies.

We ordered our drinks, which were lovely by the way, and talked hell lot of crap. Then Rui was telling me about his rain/cloud story at Mount Kinabalu, and I was listening to him attentively when somehow, one reason or another, I turned my head to my left and I saw this bright glowing object in the waiter's hands - a birthday cake. I was totally shocked it took me a few seconds to realise it was a cake. Then they started singing 'Happy Birthday' so damn loudly and hell, I started tearing. Typical la, I know. Can't help it can. I was totally shocked la. Settled down and I blew the 9 candles. And guess what? The cake's from The Patissier! Damn nice can. Yummy. We forgot to bring a camera along, had to rely on our high-tech phones for pictures. Will upload them soon. Anyway I was really really touched and happy that night. Enjoyed myself so so much. Thanks eh! ;)

Had dim sum with my family at Lei Garden on Sunday. I love dim sum! One of my favourite cuisine. I think I would be very happy living in Hong Kong, eating bo lo pao and sipping nai cha in the mornings, having dim sum for lunch and er, desserts for dinner every single day. Hah. My parents bought me a wallet and I felt so damn guilty making them spend so much, especially when my Dad said, "Better study hard I tell you." *gulps* If I bought the wallet myself, I've gotta work a whopping 110 hours for it man.

And thanks to everyone who SMSed: Felicia (Tan), Yufen, my Mum, Jack, Dennis, Wen Jia, Ruth, Sandee, Darren, Yang, Paul, Kang Ni, Jack from Mysg, Leon my fellow birthday boy, Tiffany (Loh), Charmaine, Lionel (for the lovely chocs as well!), Victoria, Faith, Ming Zhu, Jeremy (Esplanade?!), Dorcas (Ling), Wee Cheng, Yen Ping, Fanny, Dorcas (Lum, who insisted she didn't forget), Joo Sheng, Guohao, Daniel (who called on Sunday night), Grace, Elena, Bell, and everyone else who made my day one way or another!

Thanks to you too. For spending the entire day with me. I enjoyed your company very much, like I always do. You've been great..thanks for everything, I appreciate them all.

My Toshiba laptop is finally back in its original working condition (almost brand new) after I sent it to MeL on the 1st to get the hard disk replaced. Yippee. *does chicken dance like Grandpa Joe in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory* Hurhur, kidding. I know I should write about something more substantial but I'm really lazy. Think I'll blog on Friday night or something, when I have more time to sort out my (very) jumbled up thoughts.

Still the one.

2005-08-14T21:07:00.000+08:00

Thanks for the birthday greetings everyone! Will give a detailed account er, soon. Till then!

"You don't always see the pain someone feels."

I remember reading this line or something similar somewhere before, but I can't recall where exactly. I'm thinking if it's you, but I looked through your archives and I can't seem to find the post. Maybe you deleted it or something since you always edit your old entries. Not sure. Sorry if I quoted you without giving you any credit.

_____________

Sorry I have to resort to writing in bits here or send you extremely long SMSes. I just feel it's easier to put myself across in writing rather than verbally. And you don't know how hard I want this to work out. I keep trying, and I keep falling. But I'm hanging on; not about to let go.

The Promise
Tracy Chapman

If you wait for me
Then I'll come for you
Although I've travelled far
I always hold a place for you
In my heart
If you think of me
If you miss me once in a while
Then I'll return to you
I'll return and fill that space in your heart

Remembering your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way
Back to you
If you'll be waiting

If you dream of me
Like I dream of you
In a place that's warm and dark
In a place where I can feel
The beating of your heart

I've longed for you
And I have desired
To see your face your smile
To be with you wherever you are

Remembering your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way
Back to you
If you'll be waiting
Please say you'll be waiting

Together again
It would feel so good to be in your arms
Where all my journeys end
If you make a promise
If it's one that you can keep
I vow to come to you
If you wait for me
And say you'll hold
A place for me
In your heart

_____________

Sorry..for the things I did and I did not do, for crying at the slightest bit, for not being strong enough like I said I would be, for hurting you with my actions..my words, for putting you through all these shits, for not listening to you, for being stubborn, for interfering with your life..your relationships, for appearing at the wrong place and time, for being so demanding,..so possessive, for being childish and temperamental, for not appreciating you enough, for adding to your troubles, for not being in the right position to help you, for wanting and needing you so bad..and so many other sorrys' I can't remember. But most of all, I apologise for not being that someone you need me to be..

2005-07-18T23:02:00.000+08:00

I want to cry. And all I need is someone who will sit by and listen to me sob uncontrollably and not say a thing to make me feel better knowing I won't, no matter how hard they try.

In the midst of finding a new blog template. Don't get me wrong, I love this current template a lot, but I think I should get one without those navigation things (my feeble attempt of trying to look/act like a "professional" blogger) Hurhurhur.

And so I guess the Bloggers.SG 2005 con was a success. (screw Sunday Times for saying that it was YAWN) Pffft! I knew I should have went. I really wanted the gorgeous blogger con t-shirt la. Anyone kind enough to sell me one? Heh. Am like, stabbing myself in the thigh for not turning up man. So jealous of those who took pictures with mrbrown and the oh-so-hot Mr Miyagi can?! Bleah. Oh, check out the Top Ten Reasons you did not attend the Bloggers.SG meet here. And check this too. So damn bloody cool la.

p/s: My Financial Management notes have been in front of me for about 2 hours or so, and it's still stuck at Topic 2 - Cash & Profit Planning. Somebody shoot me.

2005-07-12T11:55:00.000+08:00

Sigh, why does the Bloggers.SG have to be in the middle of our common tests?! Rarrrrr! I wanna go leh. *whines* I wanna see my blog idols! And one of them is mrbrown, who happens to turn a year older today! So happy birthday to the ah kong of blogospshere. Hurhur.

______________

Thanks for the memories. It will stay with me for as long as I live.

Let this story live on. 11th July 2005.

2005-06-26T18:05:00.000+08:00

Daniel told me that my blog entries are getting shorter and shorter, and I kinda noticed it. No bolts of inspiration to blog..Sad can. I feel bad neglecting my blog la.

These few weeks has been such a blur. Vague with clarity that I only recall the significant events. School is terrible. I haven't done a single tutorial in full; most (in fact all) are half done. I don't understand FMGT and CMA, the figures and whatnot. BLAW is okay, just that the caselaws and reading are endless. HRM is such a bore, it's worse than BMGT and OB. ECD is non-examinable, so I have no complains. Term tests up in 3 weeks' and what does this say? One word - Unprepared. I keep telling myself I have to study, do this and that, but I don't put what I say into action. The to-do list I pasted on my table still says:

write CMA & ECD notes.
reread Ravi, do BLAW tutorials.
redo FMGT, CMA tutorials
research HRM, ECD, FMGT projects.
BLAW!! *must study
JUST STUDY, DAMN IT! >_<"

These 6 points don't get striked off even after 2 weeks. I told myself I want no D's for any of my modules, and yet I don't get down to work. How am I gonna fufill that if I don't start studying? And not like it's gonna help me get the grades I want just by ranting here on my blog. Bah! Time for someone to give me a slap.

Anyway to save the trouble of me disgressing and you reading my crap, I'll just sum things up for the weeks before in point form.

Met up with the secondary school gang twice this month. Met Wen Jia too! Miss the times we spent together back at the holding school.
Went out almost everyday for the past 2 weeks. Haven't been going home for dinner..which is bad. Spent a hell lot of money too. My account is depleting rapidly. I can see my iPod mini and Birkenstock in my dreams though. Hurhur.
Caught my 7th movie this month. That's Hitchhikers, Unleashed, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Ghost Train, Batman, Be With You and Six. Be With You is damn nice. Your typical sappy Japanese movie but it's worth watching. Bawled my eyes out while watching. Typical of me as well..
Stayed out the whole of Friday and we didn't have a proper place to sleep. And I had to work from 10AM to 11PM the next day (Saturday) . Really really proud of myself that I didn't exactly peng at work.
And you know, I still think you look damn shuai in that Topman shirt. :]
I decided to be a regular blood donor once I hit 18. Wanted to participate in the one at NP last week, but I think I needed my parents' consent and stuff, which is too much of a hassle. Anyway time flies and it's only about 2 more months before I hit 18. Call me perverse, but I'm quite fascinated by the idea of being a regular blood donor after reading this entry I saw on Tomorrow. Hmmm.
"This must be an illusion, I know this can't be real..but right here and right now, this is paradise I feel." If I'm not wrong, this is some song lyric but I can't remember which. Expresses my feelings/thoughts very well for now.
And..I still think you're the greatest thing that can ever happen in my life.

Found this poll on Jay-Chou.net that says:

If life had a remote control, which button would you hit?

Pause
Record
Rewind
Fast forward
*Eject

*Eject means to end your life.

Tried to choose an option, but figured I was erm, spoilt for choice. Let's see. I'll choose..

-Pause, because life now has never been this good/happy/blissful/xing fu.

-Record, so that I won't forget these happy times. And I can play the video of my life and recall the fondest memories, good or bad.

-Rewind, so I can undo the regrets I had/have.

-Fast forward, so as to spare me from the agony of going through tests and exams. But I want to stop at the point where I see myself working in a law firm. Hurhur.

-Eject, because ultimately, you're/I'm just living each day only to die at the end.

Hard to choose la. Don't know what I want either. What about you? What would you choose? Drop me a tag or leave a comment below! I'll be more than glad to hear what others think.

Oh, does anyone wants to go for the Bloggers.SG convention on the 16th July(Saturday) at Woodlands Library with me? I wanna go even though it's like in the middle of our common test week. I wanna meet my blog idols! Oh yea, did I mention that I saw Adrianna (who was previously from popagandhi.com)? It was some time ago at Sculpture Square when they had the carnival thing in May. I tell you, I almost died from excessive hyperventilating. Hurhur, kidding. Anyway, drop a tag if you wanna go for the convention!

Here's a photo before I end,

Sunkist? Nah. Just the wedge of lemon that came with the drink I had at Fish & Co. I think I look cool. Hurhurhur.

*p/s: This post got a lot of links hor? Must check them out! I took effort to link them kays.

Congratulations del, you are...

Jeff Ooi of http://www.jeffooi.com/

You are humble, mild-mannered yet wise. Your knowledge is vast as an ocean, but when confronted with an issue you are passionate about you are tough as a mountain. You have an aura of style, quality, excellence surrounding you that cannot be denied. In a way, you are a rebel, but that's because you are always willing to help out your peers by challenging authority without asking much in return. People respect you. You are a natural born leader, people stop to listen when you speak, and follow you wherever you go. You also have a little bird.

Which Malaysian Blogger Are You?

*p/s: Sad to say, I have no idea who Jeff Ooi is until I read a little about him on kennysia.com.

*pp/s: No bolts of inspiration to blog recently. Sorry for the lack of updates! Will write an entry soon. Most probably on Sunday. Till then.

You are independent, smart and beautiful. Its too bad you don't see that yourself because life's little difficulties brought down a lot of your self confidence. As a result, you talk cryptic and you don't trust people easily. You care a lot for your friends and your loved ones, sometimes even more than you care for yourself, although they don't always seem to appreciate it. Don't let that affect you. As the saying goes, you don't miss the water till the well runs dry. So hang in there, you're a star in the making.

I used to think that..

Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt were the perfect couple of Hollywood. But after watching Mr. & Mrs Smith today, I think Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie actually do look quite good together:

*sizzle* Hot stuff there.

Caught my third movie this week - Mr. & Mrs. Smith, that is. Pretty good. Well, at least it's way better than Hitchhiker's. Caught Unleashed on Monday as well. Not too bad either. Out of all three, I would think Mr. & Mrs. Smith deserve a 3 1/2-4 star rating. Anyway, don't bother watching Hitchhiker's. Kinda dumb and lousy. Read from Xiaxue that the movie plot is quite different from the book.

I should go to sleep now; meeting Fanny, Yufen, Rui and Eliz for breakfast at KAP Mc in about 6 hours' time (read 8AM).

Hey there friend. Don't know if you'll get to see this but well. Haven't seen and heard from you in a while. Hope you're doing fine even though I think otherwise. Just know that all I want is for you to be happy, even though it doesn't exist in your dictionary. Miss the times spent together. When I think of movies, I think of you. When I look at the strawberry Apollo chocolates, I think of all the "xing fu's" we enjoyed. When I listen to Jesus Etc, I think of you. Don't know if we'll ever meet up again, just want to say that I miss you and your company a lot. Study hard kays - I know you will. You are afterall, someone with high expectations of yourself (and others). And I hope you won't stop blogging 'cause it's currently the only way I know what's happening in your life.

Almost Here
Brian McFadden and Delta Goodrem

Brian:
Did I hear you right?
'Cos I thought you said,
Let's think it over.
You have been my life,
And I never planned,
Growing old without you.

Shadows bleeding through the light,
Where the love once shined so bright,
Came without a reason.
Don't let go on us tonight,
Love's not always black and white,
Why haven't I always loved you?

Delta:
And when I need you,
You're almost here,
And I know that's
Not enough.
And when I'm with you,
I'm close to tears,
'Cos you're only almost here.

Brian:
I would change the world,
If I had a chance,
Oh won't you let me.
Treat me like a child,
Throw your arms around me,
Oh please protect me.

Both:
Bruised and battered by your words,
Dazed and shattered now it hurts.

Brian:
Oh havent I always loved you?

Delta:
And when I need you,
You're almost here,
And I know that's
Not enough.
And when I'm with you
I'm close to tears,
'Cos you're only almost here.

Delta:
Oooh oh

Both:
Bruised and battered by your words,
Dazed and shattered now it hurts.

Brian:
Haven't I always loved you?

Delta:
But when i need you,
You're almost here.

Brian:
Well I never knew how far behind I left you.

Delta:
And when I hold you,
You're almost here.

Brian:
Well I'm sorry that I took our love for granted.

Both:
And now I'm with you,
I'm close to tears

Brian:
'Cos I know I'm almost here.

Both:
Only almost here

For some reason or another, I'm quite in love with this song. I think Delta Goodrem is pretty good. I should get her album or something.

By the way, thanks Yufen for the publicity and no, I didn't go on a date.

Skipped HRM lecture today (argh I feel damn bad can) to go out with my cousin. Bought a tote bag for $25.90, a necklace from Topshop for $23, 2 pairs of earrings for $5.90 and $4.90 respectively. Somebody kill me. (notice that's what I always say but...)

Eat your hearts out (although this is just the beginning)! Muahahaha.

The 3 tops I bought today:

Says it all.

Bought this from Southaven at $29. Pretty pretty. There's a black one too, which I ~~think I'm gonna get~~ got as well.

Lurrrve this, even though it costs even more than the FCUK tee. Ouch.

*hyperventilating* Ahhhhh! My second pair of Havaianas! Love the colour; it's gorgeous (to me) can. Gonna get the other design in either red or lime green. Muahahaha.

The only item that should be here but is not here is the Birkenstock. It's the only one I want so damn badly and yet they don't have it in my size. Grrrrr. Gotta wait till end of this month or next for the new stock to come in. So sad can. I want it so damn badly la. Gonna buy some books this Saturday. And oh, Sophie Kinsella has a new book (which I obviously will get). Woohoo.

Been ages since I last sat down to write something here. Nothing much to note I suppose. It has been work, work and more work throughout the entire 7 weeks of holidays. Quite used to working now; always preferred working to studying, but many who heard me say that tell me I will change my mind after I "officially" come out to work. Pros and cons la. Learnt many new things at work, and it's one of the reason why I chose to go back to work in the service line again. But yes, of course it's for the money as well. Think about ALL the items you can strike off from your "to-buy" list after getting your pay at the end of the month...

School is relatively managable for now, even though I know my heart's not there. The only module that interests me this semester is probably Business Law. Hurhur. The tutors we met so far all seem pretty cool. Especially ECD's Randal Goh and FMGT's Mark Tan. Judging from the scheduled dates and all, this semester is gonna be pretty crammed. Our term exams are in September. Pretty fast eh?

Met up with Elena, Kelvin, Sam, Guang Yang, Guohao and Tiffany today! Like, after so many months man. Missed them all so damn much. Met the NP people and Kelvin after school at 5+ before heading down to Holland. Ate BK (okay okay, I know it's weird that we eat like, BK when we're supposed to dine at some fancy restaurant) before heading to Coffee Bean where we stayed till about 1015PM. Guohao and Tiffany came only around 8+ cause they both had school before that. Had a great time just talking and catching up. Spending time with fairsians always remind me of how much I miss Fairfield. Dad came to pick me up cause it was on the way. Left around 10+ but really wished we could just stay longer if not for school tomorrow. When are we gonna meet again? I swear and promise I will organize a chalet when time permits. This whole stupid changing of the system totally clashes the JC's and Poly's holidays. How to have chalet?! Grrr.

Was supposed to go on a shopping spree with Yufen and Fanny yesterday but we only received our pay yesterday night so didn't managed to, but I'm going to splurge tmw! Muahahaha. Birkenstock, Queen's Couture, NewUrbanMale, FCUK, Kino/Borders, Gramophone, ________ (insert relevant brand name here) here I come! Hurhurhur. Oh yea, guess what. I decided I'm gonna get anothere iPod mini (in green) again cause my "iPod-mini-turn-shuffle" is handicapped, a.k.a. only can listen to one side of the earphone. Don't ask why. I'm depressed enough. Almost cried while explaining my situation to that service guy at Apple yday.

Oh oh oh. I desperately wanna watch movies. Star Wars, Downfall, Hitchhiker's, Kingdom of Heaven, A Lot Like Love, Fantastic Four, War of the Worlds, and not forgetting INITIAL D.

I feel absurdly guilty for taking more than a month to complete The Invisible Circus by Jennifer Egan.

A surprise visit by Guohao, Elena, Kelvin really made my day. They popped by on Sunday evening when I was working. Really caught me by surprise. Havent seen them for a long time and hell did I miss them. Wished I could sit and talk to them more but well, I was working. Felt quite bad that their desserts costs more than their actual dinner.

Went out with Fanny to Little India yesterday. She brought me to the place where she and Rui ate naan and dahl (sp?) the other time they were there. It's cheap and good; I like it. Let's go there more often. Hurhur. Did threading at Tekka Shopping Centre too. The lady is quite friendly and her skills are pretty good. Probably go back there again if I wanna thread. Bought black and purple metal bangles and a chunky opaque greenish bangle. Ate tau huay at Rochor before walking to Bugis. The tau huay is damn nice. Silky smooth. So xing fu. Bought Ben & Jerry's from Cold Storage to eat too! The flavour is called everything but the... Super xing fu. It's a combination of 3 flavours and it's DAMN GOOD. Anyone wants to join me on a trip to the zoo for B&J's? ;]

This friendship I've held so dear; it's fading.

Say hi to the new funky me. Hurhur.

And so I had a haircut today. I totally adore my new hairstyle, but I'm sad because I miss my long flowy tresses SO much. Love the feeling of having my hair run over my bare back, and I'm gonna miss that feeling for some time. And guess what? I did something quite erm, perverse today too - I kept my hair. Gonna put them in a bottle or something, cause it's like the first time I kept my hair till it's so damn long la. It could cover my chest before I had like 6 inches snipped away. Sob.

*Edit: Damn, the ends are CURLING cause they're shoulder length! Argh!!
