Girls night out. :)

2012-02-09T13:31:00.007+08:00

Met up with Wenda yesterday night for Jap food at Itacho. Food was really good, as usual, and we were so engrossed with chatting during the meal that we forgot we had a movie to catch which resulted in us panicking and rushing all the way to Cathay. Verdict? One for the money was not worth the money at all. Expected more from Katherine Heigl since her previous chick flicks were pretty good. This movie just ended off with her and a cupcake plus we were both constantly going "wtf?" throughout the movie.

Ended off the day at Starbucks and caught up with one another. It was good talking to her, and things are finally kicking into my brain once and for all. Well, I guess some things are just better off this way huh. :)

Everything else aside, life has been really good for me. Its scary at times though, since things have never gone so well in the longest time. Still, I'm trying my very best to staying optimistic. :)
Work wise - same place, same routine, same exhaustion. Okay this may sound corny, but I've been trying really hard to stay positive and motivate myself by looking forward to almost anything and finding all sorts of things to do just to keep myself moving. So yeah, surviving.
Relationship wise - things are going smoothly. :) Haven't felt so happy spending time with a special someone in the longest time and nothing ever comes with any unnecessary drama or a broken heart. Plus I feel like I'm finally being treated right. :)
I do miss some of my friends though. But everyone's just too caught up with school work, work or army but I'm glad that our foundations were all built on solid ground so noone has anything to worry about. :) Can't wait for the holidays to be here so that everyone can finally meet up.

I guess that's all for now. Mind's still worrying about 2nd March though. As usual. :/

Toodles!

Sunrise.

2012-02-04T20:42:00.004+08:00

And that concludes our first sunrise together. :)

Crab + Cocktail.

2012-02-01T14:11:00.001+08:00

Sunday evening was spent with Wenda, JH and ZL at Mellben for crab. We've been talking about this trip ever since June I think? During CCC Camp but never got to it. Jon came for a little while and N couldn't make it so it was really a pity since it was our last meal tgt before the guys go into camp. :(

The crab was good but was rather overpriced, considering the fact that I have tasted better ones before and there was too little roe for me. Still, the portion was just right for us to hyperventilate and go into spasm mode. :) Haha luckily ZL was there to guide JH since it was his first time tasting it while W and I were too engrossed with own pincers. Nothing beats a good company and good food. :)

Made an impromptu decision to cab to Harry's after dinner. Had our cocktails & caught up with one another. We played shoot shag marry which was pretty epic since we were coming up with really awkward and weird choices for one another but Ryan Gosling won hands down. :D

One hell of a crazy night. :) Well so I guess all the exhaustion snow-balled till today and I totally resemble the walking dead now, only that my flesh isn't rotting. Other than that, I'm pretty much half-asleep through everything.

Jan's finally over which brings us closer to 2nd March - judgement day. There's still one month to it but I'm pretty much feeling the tension now. Gah, even speaking about it makes me queasy. I know everything's finalized, but there's still a part of me who's hoping that eveything would turn out well once and for all.

In any case, fingers crossed!

Bye!

Chinese New Year 2012

2012-01-26T14:30:00.009+08:00

Thanks for being the reason to my smile :)

CNY this year was like the usual. I fell pretty ill on the eve of CNY and was whining all day in bed. Heh but I got a small surprise on my way out to grandma's for dinner and I was all smiles to the point my mom thought her daughter was going crazy with the sudden change in mood. Reunion dinner was pretty horrible for me because the food looked really delicious but the taste didn't telly for me. Luckily, everything got better on CNY and I recovered almost totally in the morning which = an excuse to eat more junk which = the fever bug almost came knocking on my door again on Wed which = NEVER GO WORK HAHA YAY.

Okay back to topic. Spent most of my time at my Grandma's and we did the usual gambling and stuff. Heh, I guess I can say that I had better luck this year :)

(The post was supposed to be longer becos I saved it as draft but blogger decided to bail on me by deleting some parts of it when I opened it today)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Claudia and FK came over to my place on Day 2. Shawn was supposed to join them too, but he was still pretty busy on the 2nd day and none of us could make it on the 3rd. :( FK was a big hit with Cookie and Claudia finally touched a dog for the first time in her life. It was really great having them over, especially we when we were in my room and everyone was varying from spouting nonsense to talking sense and I was simply laughing at everything they were saying.

Had Cafe Cartel for lunch, followed by a dessert and a movie and I really felt like puking by then. My belt kept coming off because the hole was so enlarged and I had to keep fixing it back on half the time I was out. =.=

I was pretty surprised when I saw the photos because the quality turned out better than expected with my Samsung. Still, I've gotten a new Canon so yay to better quality pics in the future :) I was so fasinated with FK's one during prom that I had to get my hands on another Canon.

In any case, its a pity that the long weekend's over because I doubt there'll be any other days like this in Feb which = lesser chances to skip work. The environment's alright but I'm really sick of spending my days cooped up in that room and not learning anything. I feel like I'm reliving the days just after prom but only this time, the difference is that I gotta wake up at 5:30am every morning to rot. I'd rather spend my mornings in bed. :(

Will blog soon about crab + cocktail trip yesterday w Wenda and the guys.
Bye! :)

Language.

2012-01-20T15:31:00.005+08:00

I was so bored at work and I decided to drop by at the Thinking Humanitarian's page and I was really surprised to see some of my classmates still communicating at that space. I got hit by a sudden surge of nostalgia because well, I used to visit that page every other day during the Alevels period, impatiently waiting for a reply or a comment for my essay just so I can get started on another one.

That place always gives me inspiration to write, to blog, to keep in touch with the language and well, now that As are over, I realized I've kinda neglected writing. I know it sounds crazy, since I'm not actually doing it as a profession or something but I always get this adrenaline rush whenever I visit it, or when I write. Well, I enjoy that feeling :)
Like, man, I feel like I gotta write or do something if not something just feels wrong. As much as I hate to admit this, but I really do miss GP. It was one subject that made me break down a lot during Prelims but I pulled myself back up and started loving the language. I think that's another reason why I'm thinking of going into journalism too. I mean, its amazing, that as simple as the words can be, it brings out countless of meanings to people and can also move the world.

Well, prolly that's why I'm one of the few who's constantly trying to revive my blog, because its the only place that I can truely express myself with the language and still get in touch with it personally. I know that I haven't written like this in the longest time and I'm not trying to act deep or whatsoever but well, I just miss it you know. More importantly, I'm just deeply afraid that I've lost the skill to do it. To write.

2012-01-19T08:11:00.000+08:00

Playing with my webcam at work because I'm bored like that.

Date. :)

Don't let your fears win

Hey :)

I haven't written a proper entry in quite some time now. Have been rather busy these 2 weeks with mostly work (hehe actually that's bullshit) and someone who recently became an important part of my life. I think it was really a huge shocker when everyone saw the photos on facebook, especially when they started linking us up and found out that there wasn't any connections at all. Well, I think the connections part began all the way since primary school, but nothing much ever happened even in secondary school until we realized all the common interests that we share, and it was amazing. Never have I met someone who's so similar, and who finally understood all that I was really trying to say all these while, apart from my bestest friends of course :)

Oh yeah speaking of work, I wouldn't conclude that its sucky or anything because its a "get paid to do nothing" kind of thing but I guess I wouldn't be staying for long. I mean, man, I definitely need something more exciting than this. My life needs to get more interesting. :(

So yeap, back to topic. We headed to Henderson Waves yesterday. Great dating place, but only recommended to go there in the evening when it's much cooler hahaha if not you'll be burning like hell.

haha ass

I think it was funny how everyone looked at us while we were there, since we were the only ones having a picnic while the rest were jogging or doing smth else.
In any case, it was good fun :)

Heh, will blog soon.
Bye!

You're beyond amazing :)

Timbre @ The arts house.

2012-01-07T17:59:00.006+08:00

I won't give up on us, even if the skies get rough.

Friday night was spent with the sisters @ Timbre. :) I have been wanting to go there for ages but have never gotten to it since either the timing wasn't right, or because all of us were broke. I wouldn't say that the ambience there was perfect, but definitely perfect enough for the 3 of us to hang out. Loved the band who played since the lead had such soothing vocals and they were performing the hits that we knew. We even tried testing them by dedicating party rock anthem and it turned out really, really good :)

2012 has been a lucky year for me, up till now. Things have been going really well, and I haven't felt this happy with anyone for a long time. :) I just started on my job ytd too, but that's a long story and I guess I'll have PLENTY of time to blog about it if I ever want to dur working hours.

Yeah I know my entry is really uncoordinated but I can't be bothered for nuts since I'm tired as hell and all I wanna do now is to head to bed and wake up tmrw afternoon, have lunch and head back to sleep again, provided if my body clock prevails but I'm sure it won't. Waking at 5:30 every morning again is no joke. :(

Alright, toodles!

The lucky one trailer.

Can't wait for this to be out in the theatres. The movies from his books are always good.
And I'm lucky to have found you. :)

Happy New Year!

2011-12-31T23:38:00.006+08:00

I was making a list of things that happened in 2011 but it somehow got to the point that I couldn't remember anything more, so I took a break and went to Tumblr and chanced upon this.
I deleted everything I've written after that because this pretty much sums up everything.

I do wish that 2012 will be a better year with new beginnings and happy endings.

Happy New Year everyone!

Marche

2011-12-31T00:53:00.008+08:00

"If two people were meant to be together, eventually they'll find their way back"

Finally got a chance to try the food at Marche after what seemed like forever. We went to the branch at Vivo's but the concept was rather foreign and messy to me. Still, the food was really good (better than what I expected) for the price and it was a good place for us to meet up (other than the fact that is was so obvious that the staff tried to chase us away) after that. :/

It was nice listening to all their SRGCE experiences (esp gpy and elaine's haunting stories) which cracked us up because there were too many funny details.
I should prolly have appealed for Cambodia last year after getting rejected by Lijiang. :(

We took over a hundred over photos that day! (Here's some of them)

We went on board a cruise after that which was open to visitors and I think there was a charity event or something in there with book fairs and donation boxes. :)

I guess that sums it all up. :)
Well, I know I haven't been going into much details lately with my entries, but that's because I'm confident that the photos can explain and show everything better than me. :/

Oh and guess what, I'm finally employed! Can't be any happier since it was the job I wanted, but fingers crossed that it won't end up boring or anything although I know the distance is gonna be a bitch. Plus the fact that I'm gonna be stripped off my concession from tmrw onwards and I'm gonna be stuck with adult fare. :(
Haha but still, I think it was really a blessing.

Alright, I'll blog soon.
Toodles!

Choir gathering.

2011-12-30T10:48:00.005+08:00

So, what happened to happy endings?

Yesterday night was spent with the choir'08 committee (part of it) at Taste of Thailand for a scrumptous dinner. Well, more people were supposed to turn up but some of them at last minute plans, so it was just left with the 7 of us. :)

I wouldn't go into the details, but it was good fun. The night ended at Cafe Cartel where we waited for their happy hour (1/2 prices off desserts and cakes!!) with Alvin sharing his sad but really interesting story to us. I found it pretty relatable though, since something like that happened to me not long ago which broke me into a million pieces.

Well, things are still pretty much the same. :)
Will blog soon when YM uploads the photos from our Marche trip.

Toodles!

Just a chance that we'll find better days

Someday.

2011-12-22T19:10:00.005+08:00

No such luck

Met up with the girls yesterday after what seemed like forever. :)
Well, we were supposed to have dinner at Marche, but the queue was unbelievably long so we headed over to The Handburger instead. The meal was good, though I still prefer the burger over at The burger bar or smth @ Cine which closed down alr. :(

Anyway, had a walk over @ Central's rooftop and also headed to A&F. Haha yes, the guys in there were really eye-candy material. Yeah, totally eye candy material, but the smell of cologne in there was SO strong that I could even taste it after coming out from there. Well, I took a picture with one of the A&F guys which was like the most awkward thing ever hahaha. I wouldn't go into the details here.... but yeah, all of them were really friendly, I must say :)

Anw, to sum it up, it was a good meet up. Really do miss the times where we would have HTH talks and all, since... well, everyone understood. :)

That's all for now. :)
Toodles!

NYE.

2011-12-20T21:30:00.001+08:00

What would you do today if you knew you would not fail?

2011-12-14T00:41:00.004+08:00

One hell of a cycling trip today I swear!
Cycled all the way from ECP to Changi Village and back. Calculated the distance and it was about 26km, more than we have ever ran. Haha more for me I guess, since the most i've ran at one shot was 13km. Was in the sun for more than 3 hour straight and the consequences? Wobbly legs, a cramping butt and a severe sunburn. Haha but I must say it was worth it all, since the fun and experience was def one of a kind :)

My body is sending signals to my brain that it's terribly in need of a rest, but my eyes refuses to shut. I was counting on this trip to switch my body clock back and to have a good workout. But workout yes, switch body clock back a definite no. Gave in to the temptation of sleeping after dinner just now and so.... I guess I'm gonna have to stay awake a while longer :/

Alrightos. Ttys!

Zero. Ziltch.

2011-12-12T21:47:00.003+08:00

Escape.

Hey!

Things are starting to get interesting this week. Well hopefully, since I'll be out most of the days. Yesssss, after all that rotting. You know, although Aevels only ended like 2 weeks ago (surprise surprise), it already feels like a month, and I'm kinda... well kinda... sourcing for a job now even though I promised myself 1 month of slacking time. Yes, it's this boring and I think JC screwed us all. No. Okay fine. Just me. I feel like life just lost some of its meaning without all that crazy studying. AND NO, I'm not giving anything to try that all over again. Well, uni yes, J2 NO.

ANYWAY, back to topic. Met up with Wenda today for some shopping! Had really really really really really really really really really really really really good no SUPERB sushi today at Itacho Sushi. My god. I can't inject taste senses into people virtually so I won't explain how superb it was, but if you wanna know, you should def try.

Both of us spent quite a bomb today, but my damages were not as huge as W's. Heh, but I'm barring myself from shopping for the next 2 months because the guilt is killing me. Its tormenting, just looking at how much I've spent for the past week. Definitely not sustainable for someone who hasn't found a job, and for someone who's not intending to look for one anytime soon (In Dec).
Anyway, since there was this 12 days of Christmas promotion at Starbucks, both of us headed there with the intention of getting a Grande CWC Frappe but since the service was so slow and lousy, we got a Venti instead :D Hehe alright, I guess that compensates for all the waiting time and missed orders. Yeap, we're easily satisfied. Haha.

Gotta go. Got to be up and early tmrw. :)

Toodles!

Cookie boy.

2011-12-08T19:00:00.002+08:00

Hahaha I swear he's the cutest. :D
And definitely the one who's always there.

Boredom just reached a new high.

2011-12-07T15:15:00.005+08:00

Met up w Claudia yesterday after she got back from ShangHai for some dimsum. :) A rather impromptu trip actually, since I was bored to hell and couldn't stand being at home any longer. Best dim sim I've ever tasted, though I haven't tasted many in my lifetime as I'm more exposed to Jap or Western. And speaking of Jap, I'm missing Ichiban's salmon so much... :(

Now that prom is over, my level of boredom just reached a new high, and so did my laziness level. I wanna head out and chill, but a part of me doesn't want to move and just wanna laze in bed all day. I wanna meet up with everyone, but a part of me is just too lazy to text. :/ I might as well throw my phone away or smth, cos I've even reached a point where I'm too lazy to even reply to texts or Whatapps (Plus whatsapp keeps crashing on me). I'm even neglecting my Twitter omg.

Gah, I don't know whats wrong with me. But I know I gotta snap out of it before Dec ends and before I start lookng for a job.

Alright, I'll blog soon.
Bye!

Masquerade 2011 :)

2011-12-05T12:24:00.015+08:00

We all deserve better.

Right. I don't know where to start.
Still, gotta thank both Claudia and FK. Claudia, for helping me out with my outfit, assembling and advicing before leaving for ShangHai and FK, for his god-like Canon camera which saved and completed my night. Oh yeah, and not to forget, JunHong, who helped me with most of the photos. :D

Prom this year was held at Marriott Hotel, and we were pretty relieved that venue changed from Carlton to Marriott, since I think the food would have sucked. Anyway, shared a cab with Charlene there and YM, Char and I happened to be the earliest as compared to the rest of the guys lol. Rotted at the lobby and waited for the guys before heading up to the ballroom 1 hour laterrrr.

I wouldn't go into the details, but well, we had prom king and queen nomination as usual as well as band performances and games. Everyone looked pretty good yesterday :) Haha and kudos to Robert who wore his $150 darth vader suit there and won best mask award. (Y) Food was alright, with the usual banquet dishes though my tummy started rumbling pretty badly at 3:45am in the morning. Hahahaha. Camwhored with the rest as usual :) Everyone was trying to grab whoever they can see for a shot, since it would technically be the last time that we'll all be meeting up.

Headed over to Chijmes afterwards for post prom :D Almost thought that all the pubs were closed and almost headed to Post Prom @ The Arena, but was glad that there was one that was still open till 2am. Well, my virgin trip to a pub and also my first cocktail. Haha, pretty good I must say, though my head started throbbing after a while, like wth. Everyone, esp the guys and esp Ashwin was so afraid that this Philipino lady would try to hit on them HAHA but I swore that she was trying to hit on every single guy she saw to get laid or smth.

Haha anyway, prom and post prom was really fun, with good food and more importantly, great friends and a really good company. :)

Well, now for the Photos. :) Well the flash was really glaring, in case if you were wondering what's wrong with some of our eyes hahahaha, esp Ashwin and D who couldn't keep their eyes open cos of the flash.

HAHA KZL WITH HIS CURRYPOK HAIR.

Finally. A group photo that we missed during Graduation :)

Beloved CCC Exco :)

HAHAHA THIS SO MARSHALL OF ASHWIN.

So that concludes Prom :)
Haha I'm terribly exhausted but can't sleep or anything, in case I stay awake the whole night again. Now that prom is over, I'm gonna continue rotting till prolly Jan when I finally force myself to get a job or smth.

Toodles!

Prom. :D

2011-12-05T03:33:00.006+08:00

Not in picture: YenMing, who went off earlier.

Prom was great. Well, better than expected so I was really glad that I went. :D
I'll blog soon, but in the meantime, its 3:34am and its time for bed.

10 000 stones - Adrianne

2011-12-02T00:37:00.000+08:00

On repeat since forever.

2011-12-01T20:10:00.007+08:00

No one ever said it would be this hard.

Went on a shopping spree today with Wenda JH and Jon for prom. Well it was more of shopping for JH since most of us were already done with our stuff. It was really fun actually, shopping for blazers and shirts and camwhoring in the dressing room. It really amazes me how different one can look after doning such expensive and formal wear. Can't blame me man, I haven't really exposed myself to such guy apparels before haha.

Met 30 (yes we counted) SRJcians (including teachers) all around Orchard who were busy shopping for prom stuff and some other YTzens whom I haven't met in ages. Hehe was so happy for N who finally got his fairytale ending with... and was caught in action when we were waiting for JH. Like seriously, saw so many SR couples in action today hahaha. But really can't find the right words to express our happiness for N when we saw him today. Way to go!

Had lunch at (shit i forgot where) but it was some Teppanyaki place and such. Couldn't really be bothered because I was starving so badly after all that shopping but I know the food was good. Either the food was good or I was really hungry lol.

Hmmm, I think I still do prefer the pictures that my phone's cam takes.
Still contemplating if I shld bring a camera to prom. Haha.

Well, there goes my first week after As. Desperately need to get a job soon in casse my money supply runs out, in which case I think it should be pretty soon.

Toodles!

Waiting

2011-11-30T23:27:00.008+08:00

How could I ever believe that 10000 stones would build the best of me?

Its funny how things are moving so quickly. 2 years, ended as quickly as it came and it definitely does not seem surreal, like, one moment you are piled up with tutorials and notes to be memorized and the next, you're staring at your laptop, browsing through movies that appeals to you or that you have already watched just so you can watch/rewatch them again, because my life's boring like that. I guess that's what most single people out there are doing too. Haha but thing is, we are not lonely. We're alone.

The next few day's gonna be filled with shopping and more shopping for prom, considering how much everyone has to spend just for a night's event. Not a great supporter of prom actually. Just there for an experience, and well... to feel like I've lived. Haha, to feel like a girl actually. Don't really get much of such opportunities in Singapore these days to dress up and all.

I should seriously stop now. Don't even know if anyone reads this space anymore but well... it doesn't matter actually. :) Just an outlet for me to express.

I guess I gotta turn in now. Gotta conserve my energy for tmrw.
Bye! :)

BYE A LEVELS.

"And time, will make fools of us all. Builds us up and laughs when we fall"

Chanced upon this beautiful song when I was browsing through my cousin's Ipod yesterday and couldn't resist taking the title down. Another song with I absolutely love, apart from Iris and its amazing how Goo goo dolls has this ability to sooth one's soul. Hmmmm. :]

那些年，我們一起追的女孩

2011-11-19T11:34:00.005+08:00

I think this is by far the only chinese movie that I really enjoyed. Well, not that I have watched many, but I'm a hopeless romantic so well, obviously I would have exposed myself to as many romance films as possible but I think this is one of the better ones I've watched, definitely on par with The Notebook, A walk to remember, 500 days of summer etc. :) But speaking of that, I seriously still don't get why Twilight is ranked as the no. 1 romance films of all times. The book is good, yes, but the movie was just....stupid. No...senseless. No....moronic... No..... even moronic is an understatement. Its like I'll only watch it if I need a really good laugh or if there's nothing else on tv. Well, no offence to anyone.

Anyway, back to the movie. Well, It isn't like any other romance films you would find. You don't get the "boy meets girl, boy and girl falls in love, goes through some agonizing time tgt/apart, realizes their true feelings for one another and voila! gets married and live happily ever after' kind of plot.
Everything was pretty meshed up tgt for this one. Yeah, meshed up but fitted well. Its like one minute everyone's laughing their asses off and the next, you can hear sobs and sniffles throughout the theatre. I watched this movie 2 days ago and till now, I can still feel the heartache. :'(
And best of all, it was all based on a real life story so... I guess that makes everything even more worth watching huh.

Everything else aside, I still have 3 more papers left and I'm doneeeeeeee.
Omg, freedom never felt soooo good I swear, but it's still a constant battle since I gotta constantly remind myself that I still have papers to revise for and not waste my time away and such. Still haven't watched the latest episode of GG and TWD. Trying to resist the temptation so I can catch everything at once after the 29th.

Alrightos, back to revision.
Bye!

其实, 在真实人生裡, 有些事永远沒有答案.
也许, 在另外一个平行时空里......

Tumblr

2011-11-13T01:26:00.005+08:00

"There’s a reason I said I’d be happy alone. It wasn’t ‘cause I thought I’d be happy alone. It was because I thought if I loved someone, and then it fell apart, I might not make it. It’s easier to be alone. Because what if you learn that you need love? And then you don’t have it? What if you like it? And lean on it? What if you shape your life around it? And then… it falls apart? Can you even survive that kind of pain? Losing love is like organ damage. It’s like dying. The only difference is… death ends. This…? It could go on forever."

- Grey's Anatomy

Food for thought :)
And prolly one of the many reasons why I'm so hooked on Tumblr. Yeah yeah I know I've been spamming such cynical stuff about love and what not on my blog but no, I'm not love sick or heartbroken or whatever. Im still very much alive and kicking. It's just... the language that amazes me yknw... like, how such simple words can be phrased and yet, they sound so... right. With the right amount of emotions, the right amount of pain.
Never ever underestimate the power of words. Well, that's what I've learnt anyway.

"Human beings are funny. They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit it openly. Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear. Fear that their feelings may not be recognized, or even worst, returned. But one thing about human beings puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly within."

Sigmund Freud

4 papers down, 6 more to go.
Golly gosh, this feels worse than Prelims.

It's funny. Sometimes you feel like you know it all, but there're days where you feel like you're clueless about everything.

Well, 9 days left.

Fear.

I hate how my camera always bails on me on such occasions. Didn't know that the pictures would turn out this sucky. Should have used my phone instead. #majorregret

Anyway, I think what's important would be the memories, rather than the photos taken. :/ Graduation this year was pretty unique, since we have such good teachers here that would go an extra mile just for us - testtube gifts, motivational videos etc. Well, I don't really have much to say now, except for the politically right answers that we have to graduation days, but considering the fact that I'm already so shag, I shall leave everything to the photos.
Shag is an understatement. Definitely an understatement.

HAHA MY GOODNESS, THIS IS STILL CRACKING ME UP.

First paper in approx 2 weeks time. Haha ikr. Time is racing past us, and I'm not even sure if I'm on par anymore.
Right then.

Bye! :D

Getting there, i hope.

Some photos taken last week during the geog farewell. Well, not exactly farewell but it was the last official geog lecture which indeed, called for a celebration after we've survived through 3 straight hours of post moterm (no joke). I think it was really really sweet of the teachers, especially the geog and econs departments to prepare gifts for us, or even compling past year questions and all that sort of thing just to help us in this last stretch of battle.

I mean, like what they say, the "make it or break it" moment is finally here. 3 more weeks left, and 1 more month till all these are over. I believe in the epiphany theory the chem teachers were talking about actually. It does exist because as little time as there may be left, its still time for us to absorb and internalize, if we're really desperate for it.

Just a little more, my dear. Just a little more.

"I think love is a useless word for descriptions these days. Love binds and pulls and tugs and shatters, breaks and stirs and murders and revives, all at once. Love is a word turned into a full stop in teenagers’ conversations, peppered all over to spice a bowl of bland sentence soup. Love is an excuse for not loving. Love is an inspiration for the most handsome things in the world. Love is a justification for the ugliest things in the world. Love is indefinable, yet has its place in every single dictionary, in probably every single language.

And I won’t be hypocritical; I’m one of these people who exploit the word like breaths of air. It’s almost like a hello and goodbye in every conversation. It’s a “hey Tim, bye Tim, I love you Tim.” kind of thing. Its things you say drunkenly to strangers, or things you say to people you don’t really care about at all. Yet you can wake up one morning, to the most beautiful face you know, and know that this was the one, this was the one for sure, this was the one that makes your heart want to describe colours that don’t exist and the one that makes you want to stop time as you kiss and you lose your head into a blind space.

And all you could offer is the same “I love you” you praised your mom as she packed you pbnj sandwiches for lunch.

I could say I loved you, and be right and wrong all at once. I could say I loved you, and then squeeze in a “but”, but that would be like drawing a bold line in permanent marker across a Mona Lisa painted in gold with rubies and diamonds embedded in the details. I could say I love you. I could mouth it. Write it down. Paint it on paper and etch it on trees. But no. I don’t love you. I will never say it and mean it.

I will show you."

Happy 18th Birthday, Elaine! :D
Hope you had a blast!

What have you got to lose?

2011-09-30T23:27:00.004+08:00

Stress.
This feeling is imminent, its strong. It swallows one's soul into the dark and wretched hole of fear. You can't see where it's coming from, nor can you anticipate it. All it does, is creep on you when you least expect it and start piling all expectations on you. It can make you, and at the same time, break you. You don't know where to stop or worse, even start. It makes you feel like you're the most bitter thing on earth, wallowing in your own self pity and yet you see the world moving on at increasing speed, throwing you off with each step. Every single word of advice or concern sparks off tears, emerging like an uncontrollable surge of confusion, leaving you in pieces as you try to figure out where you have fallen and risen, with each step steeper than the other.

Still, at times like this, all you need is just a little self-assurance (or maybe a lot on my part) and just a hint of confidence to push your way through. The end might be near, but it's still the start until you sit for the paper. Every hour is a start, every minute, every moment. If we choose to give up now, then why did we even hold on in the first place? If everything was so easy to begin with, what are we going to learn? What are the life lessons that we'll be relating to others in the end when there were no experiences to begin with?

We're afraid. We're lost. We're all alone but yet, together.

This sudden splash of grey, and finally, black.

2011-09-24T15:20:00.001+08:00

够了.

The sacrifices that we make for perfection.

2011-09-11T18:36:00.007+08:00

Its weird how I can get sudden cravings to blog whereas nothing motivates me to post essays on MrTan's page even when I've made a promise to do something GP related everyday. Probably arguing and proving isn't my forte, since it always takes me hours before I can come up with a good comeback and by then I would've already been owned. Pfft.

The next four weeks are going to be a constant battle. School, study, home, study. Till 2 months later and I'll probably have to reside in a cave by then. I was thinking of cutting off all social networking ties but it has proven to be a unrealistic aim (hehe econs) since the last time I deactivated my facebook, I relogged in thrice. On the same day. Within the same hour. Lol, talk about self-control.

My blog's gonna be pretty barren till then, but I guess I'll blog again or something once my PreAs are over, which is like in a month's time or so? Not sure if I'll be making any other postings here till then. Kkkk, gotta go complete my Hydro notes now. I hate being a perfectionist on things like making notes because a single inconsistency can irk me to no end.

Okay, bye, and I'll see you soon! :)

Its a different kind of miss all together.

2011-09-09T00:31:00.014+08:00

Browsing through photo albums at 1am in the morning with a sudden surge of nostalgia.

How i wish.

2011-09-04T18:47:00.003+08:00

Well, its one of those days where I feel so choked up and yet I can't seem to find the right words to piece my sentences out. Its one of those days where my thoughts are creating a whirlwind in my brain, meshing up the answers to what's right or wrong and creating a warzone within. It's when everything feels like its not going according to plan, and I can only stay rooted, silently watching them fall back to where they began. Its when I feel as if I've lost touch with the world, even the ones I wish I hadn't, and yet I can't reach out with the world piling up on me and things moving so quickly. But harsh reality is, that all alone or not, I gotta walk ahead. Well, the funny thing is, that if we're all alone, then we're all together in that too.

Apple to my pie, straw to my berry.

2011-09-02T20:29:00.006+08:00

Just say what you you're feeling because the stars are watching.

Gonna chop chop make this quick so I can get started on my stuff. Well yes I've been heading out quite a lot lately when I'm not supposed to but I guess all these are gonna make up for my lost holiday because I'll have to be in school everyday for the whole of next week. Its okay, I'm not complaining here or whatsoever since I know its inevitable.
Note to self: 66 more days, my dear. Time is running faster than you know it.

Well it was a simple lunch with Claudia and Fk since Shawn couldn't make it. Had sakae buffet @ Scape and was so shocked that they jacked up the prices and, the choices became much more limited too. Still, it was a good meal since we had such a bulldozer around to suck up everything. Hehe. Okay fine, I ate quite a bit too and I'm desperately in need of a cleanse now to clear up all that junk inside me.

Managed to explore the new F21 @ Orchard exchange. Saw quite a few tops I liked but it was rather over-priced and my cash was running low (as usual) so I didn't manage to get anything. Gotta commend on Fk here since he's the first guy (okay maybe second) I know that's so willing to go shopping with 2 girls and gets a kick out of it. Hahaha okay but his advice was rather commendable I must say.

Brought Fk to heaven after that! 2nd person we've brought there since Arsyad took the first spot. Bought koi along the way since it has been ages since I last drank it.

Oh yay I managed to do this in less than 15 mins.
Don't get me wrong, but its still my favorite past-time but at times like this I guess I don't have any more time for past-times.

Kbye!

Live and let live.

2011-08-29T19:14:00.005+08:00

I tend to run from the truth.

Its funny how little things can tire me out so easily. Well it might be due to the lack of sleep that I've had ever since the start of this year, or even the little things that have been dodging in and out of my mind whenever it want to. I swear I'm gonna dedicate one whole day for sleeping when the dreadful As are over.

Had breakfast with Claudia this morning @ LENAS, the place that we went for my 18th celebration since both of us were craving for the smoked salmon pizza we never had. Well, it would have been better if it had more cheese and sauce, but it was still to my liking, and talking about it makes me hungry now. :/ Ordered another plate of Carbonara pasta since we were sure that the pizza would not be filling. Had Yoguru after that since everyone kept telling me how nice it was but I think it was the mochi that got us craving for more.

Trained down to Paya Lebar afterwards and I think it was kinda like an eye opener for us since we don't frequent that area very often. Wasnt what I expected but at least I know how everything is done now. :) Almost wanted to head back home since we were so bored but luckily FongKiat texted in time and met up with him since he was around that area and being the typical him, we were laughing even after we reached Bishan and being the typical me, I laughed throughout the journey because all 3 of us just kept having retarded conversations about nemo nemos hahaha. Made an impromptu trip to KTP Hosp, camped in Cheers for a while before heading back home. :)

Don't drool k.

Dreading school on Wed since I think we'll be getting back our chem papers :/ In the meantime, gotta make good use of the time I have left.

Goodbye!

Dreams.

2011-08-27T19:37:00.007+08:00

One day, I'll wear maxis and tour around Rome with my Chanel shades.
I'll tour the city's oldest buildings (The Colosseum) and stop by at any random cafe at noon when I'm tired. I'll have a cup of hot chocolate because I dislike coffee and I'll do people watching. I'll stop random people on the way and take pretty pictures of their outfit with my DSLR (if i have one by then) and write fashion articles about their latest trends and mail it back to my editor. I'll stop by the famous wishing well (The Trevi Fountain) and laze there while breathing in the slow Italian air, missing everyone back in Sg or my best friend who would be at the other end of the globe by then. By dinner I'll enjoy a plate of Cabonara pasta and pick any random dish that looks nice on the menu and enjoy the night scenery along the river. I'll retreat back to my hotel at night, pick out an outfit for the following day and enjoy a good night's rest with the lights on because I'm so darn afraid of the dark and continue my trip the next day.

Oh yes you bet I will.

Trying.

2011-08-25T06:55:00.011+08:00

Sometimes, timing is everything.

Slept for less than 3 hours last night but managed to fall asleep at 7am again. Woke up to a spltting headache and I'm glad that I'm feeling much better. Thank god that there isn't any school today, if not I'll definitely end up like what Fongkiat said. Walking dead. Lol.

So, met up with 2S27 yesterday and headed to the flyer, since we had unused tickets. Okay, the girls totally wore similar stuff (blue button down tops and loafers), esp Charlene YM and I but it was totally coincidental and everyone thought we pre-planned it. The flyer was like any other ride I guess, since it wasn't the first ride for some of us but at least we managed to have fun on it and such. Pity that we didn't bring any Monopoly deal along though lol. The rest of the time was spent admiring the scenery from above.

Headed over to Tiong Bahru after that since there were still time before Arsyad broke fast and we managed to find 18chefs there! Totally miss the times where we would rush over to GV Yishun after sch or before choir just for their student meals and their icelemontea which was just classic. Headed over to the bridge since some of them couldn't join us the last time. Cabbed home with Charlene afterwards and was glad that everyone reached home safe and sound.

No, we're good friends. Lol.

Alright, I guess that sums it all. :)
Rather long weekend ahead, pity that there's school tomorrow. :(

Okay, will update when I can.
Bye!

Know who you are, and do what you have to.

2011-08-23T23:21:00.004+08:00

What goes around, comes back around.

Yes, so the dreadful Prelims are finally over and I thgt I might as well do some blogging to distract me from all the online stores around. Gah, gonna make the best out of my time after Alevels and dig out all the good stores around and get some real shopping done. Oh and not to forget, places to dine at since I swear I'm gonna party like mad after all these are over. Well, prelims was one huge energy sucker since I've never felt so tired throughout my schooling years, and I'm sure its gonna get worse as the As draw near. Hmmmm.

August was a real surreal blur. Still the same old routine, the same old me. There are times when I really needed to vent though, and at times like that I turn to tumblr, since its one place I know that is the least judgemental. Facebook's too open, and so is twitter. Well, blog wise, its too public, and I'll never know who is actually reading this. Which makes it waaaaay scarier. Hmm, let's just say that I finally got my priorities sorted out and I'm gonna let time do all the work. I guess I think differently now, and I can finally connect better with reality, since there's no point escaping all the time.

Gonna meet the class and go for another round of flyer again, to make up for the previous trip. See you! :)

The more you try to push it away, the more it'll be back.

2011-08-06T19:55:00.000+08:00

SR Thanksgiving 2011!

2011-08-06T00:58:00.004+08:00

Its a constant battle between what's right and whats not

SR's thanksgiving this year was really a mad rush, though the performance was really really good and all because I doubt you can ever find teachers like the ones in SR, willing to put themselves down for one night for the sake of the students. Cross dressing, celebrity imitations and shuffling. You name it, they had it.

The afternoon was crazy because the whole class was trying to sort out flowers and getting everything in place and there were quite a few cock ups I must say, but we managed to cover it up really well. It was a pity that we missed the picnic as a class, because it seemed really fun and all but what really mattered was how our class managed to bond through all these mess and how we were there helping one another together when times were really crazy. :) Those who didn't help didn't matter, but the rest who did, well, I must say that we were really good huh. :)

Received flowers and I really must say a huge thankyou to all of you because I really did appreciate it. :D I know it all came from the heart and I was really really happy that it was not slip shot or anything. Quality man, quality. :)

Exactly one week of break starting from today. Gotta make full use of it since Prelim's only a week away. It scares me, knowing how unprepared I am for it and how its gonna be a race against time again.

See you soon!
Bye!

Sometimes, I wish time would stop and freeze when I want it to.

2011-07-30T18:49:00.002+08:00

"I think everyone has a certain part of their life where they truly wish they could freeze time, whether it was three years ago, today, or still to come, whether it was just a moment, a whole day, or a whole summer. Everyone has a time in their life where they wish everything would just stop, the world would stop turning and people would stop changing, because to them, at that time, everything was perfect."

Birthday posts!

2011-07-23T22:30:00.004+08:00

Would you lie with me and just forget the world.

Okay, so here's a combination of all the birthday posts that I've been wanting to blog about and I kinda did them all at one shot so pardon me for the lack of vocab and poor sentence structures because I was already on the verge of falling asleep while blogging these. :/

23/07/2011 - Birthday celebration with Shamo Connie and Claudia :D

Met them at Pasta de Wakaru @ Heerens and had Oysters and Cabonara pasta :D Well I kinda knew that they (Shamo and Connie) were up to something but I totally had to idea that it would be to this extent. Lol, so, my task requirement was to wear a angel wing throughout this whole thing (thank god it wasn't a tiara or something) and wellll, as embarrassing as it was, I think they really did put in a lot of effort to get everything planned. :D

So, I was tasked to :
1) Wear a container on my head and catch 3 masking balls without using my hands
2) Balance a cookie on my forehead and try to get it into my mouth without using my hands
3) Eat all red skittles from the bag using red chopsticks
4) Tell someone random that it's my birthday and get them to sing a birthday song for me
5) Solve a puzzle within a time period
6) Try to keep 3 balloons in the air for 30secs without letting them fall

Hahaha they were all done at different places with different crowds of people and I swear it was damn epic becos they were all staring at us. Most of these were caught on cam becos Sham brought her camcorder and we kinda felt like celebrities for a moment :P Had the best shopping spree after that after soooooo long to the point that Claudia had to stop me :/

Their gift was really unique and I was really really touched by all the efforts they they had put in for it. :D Imma stare at the mirror everyday whenever I do my work hehehe.

22/07/2011 - Post Birthday celebration with Claudia, Shawn and Fong Kiat :D

It was a rather improptu idea because we only texted them the day before to ask if they were free to join us and it turned out that they were, so Claudia and I met up w them @ chompchomp after the trail run. Ordered the usual dishes and as usual, we headed over to Udders afterwards. Bought my own alcoholic ice-cream for the first time :D

Brought them to the place where I last went w Wenda and the guys and we started cam-whoring there and doing all the crazy things. Hehe couldn't stop laughing throughout and kept talking about man-overboading FK. Made an impromptu trip to Nex's rooftop garden afterwards and it really surprised me to see dog cafes and playgrounds and I swear i'm definitely gna take Cookie there the next time. Had a really good laugh on the train the way back and I really can't wait till I meet them again :D

21/07/2011 - My Birthday! + celebration with the girls!

Okay, the title says it all. :) School went by pretty quickly that day and CT was a bore to the point that Cheryl Carina and I couldn't stop camwhoring. Had a shock when I opened my locker in the afternoon since there was a rat hanging on my shoebag and I almost thought it was real when Charlene screamed :/ Heehee went around pranking people the rest of the day and Ashwin & Tan Juen's reaction was the most epic I swear.

Got the sweetest box of chocolates from Arsyad and I couldn't be happier to have him as such a good friend. :D Also, the gift from Wenda, Jun Hong, Nigel and Zhao Loong was really unexpected becos it was like a combination of everything I liked in a box and I really do like it :D

Had dinner with the girls at LEMAS and had soft shell crab pasta. Yen Ming's mozerella dory was delicious and hugeeeee. The girls surprised me with the best cheese fondue after dinner I really loved the gifts they got for me. :D
Felt really really blessed. :)

17/07/2011 : Pre 18th celebration with Claudia, FongKiat and Shawn!

Had a really good meal at Kuishin-bo on the 17th and I was so glad that everyone could make it. The food was really good (as you can see from the photos later on) and we were seated waaay in so it was rather quiet at our area, but definitely not with us around :D It felt really good seeing both of them again since it was ages since we last met (okay choir chalet but still..) all of them really brought my mood up for the week.

The presence was the greatest present. :D
Okay other details are self-explanatory from the photos!

Oh like finally!
My 18th this year was definitely well spent with the best people around. Couldn't have asked for anything more. :D
Time to start dieting again if not I'll definitely gain back all the weight I lost and time to start mugging once more.

Toodles and i'll see you when I can!

18, and legal. :D

2011-07-21T23:07:00.003+08:00

18 and legal. :)

A very huge thank you to those that wished me (in anyway) today and I really had a blast. A mega huge thankyou to Claudia, Wenda, Arsyad, Charlene, Yen Ming, Elaine, Pei Yi, Jing Ru, Zhao Loong, Nigel, Jun Hong, Fong Kiat, Shawn Ng and many others who made such a big difference in my day.

I feel older, not very much wiser but definitely a whole lot richer in terms of all the love I received :D ♥

It seems like the simplest concept.

2011-07-17T21:49:00.004+08:00

Met up with them today for my pre 18th b'day celebration and I couldn't have asked for anything more. Their pressence was the greatest present. :)

Will blog when I have the time.

No reason. No explanation. No words said.

2011-07-15T22:55:00.003+08:00

If only... because only then would it be complete.

2011-07-09T18:50:00.006+08:00

Well, opposites that are trying to fit.

Yesterday was great. School has been really fun ever since the class got closer and the chemistry that we have with one another really amazes me. Yeah, stress level's increasing at a really rapid rate so it kinda offsets the fun we're having each day but at least we know that we're not struggling alone. :)

Everyone decided to go for lunch together yesterday and so, the 12 of us headed to ABC for lunch and the few of us took Robert's car there. Hahaha yes, our first time riding it and it was a tad funny because it wasnt a teacher or anyone driving it but our classmate but ahhhh who cares. At least we got a free ride :D

Had rockfest later in the night and welllllllll, I think last year's one was much better because I knew more songs but this year's one was alright I guess, minus all the pushing and all the perspiration. Jumped and screamed to the beats most of the time and was so glad that Shad and Bryce were there helping Char and I since we were constantly being pushed and I almost fell a couple of times. It all ended well in the end esp when they played Party Rock Anthem and everyone started dancing and shuffling hehe.

Meeting Claudia ShawnNg and FongKiat on the 17th to celebrate my birthday! Gna make full use of the opp to enjoy myself since I don't think I'll be able to do anything on the actual day itself.
Gahhh sucks to be me.

Toodles!

Great night out :D

2011-06-26T11:21:00.010+08:00

Had a really crazy night yesterday with the people from 2S27. Was supposed to go on the flyer with them but the queue was so long that if we really waited, it would have taken about 3 hrs or so and so we decided to go another day instead. :)

Cabbed down to Holiday Inn afterwards and bought drinks there which was so unbelivably cheap and they even threw in free mixers for us. Walked over to the bridge near the area and drank. Well, it was a good experience actually, much safer than clubbing I can say, though I've not clubbed before. Drank shots of vodka and played shoot shag marry which totally got us screaming with laughter because the choices of people they gave was so funny and well.. standard HAHAHA.

Well, shall not go into the details on what happened after that haha but the guys finished everything up before we went back. Camwhored w them and cabbed home with Charlene afterwards :)

Won't have the chance to blog so oftenly from tmrw onwards.
Will do so when I find the time to! Well, I think this is by far the best holiday I ever had. :)

Toodles :D

Ooodders and chompchomp!

2011-06-24T22:07:00.003+08:00

I need a constant.

Had a short study session today in school with Wenda, Jun Hong and Nigel and wellllll, we definitely had a hard time focusing because we were all on the verge of dozing off and my tummy was rumbling like mad. Couldn't stop laughing at whatever the guys were saying, esp at JH's OOOODDERS which we couldn't stand becos he kept pronouncing it wrong hahaha.

Met up with Zhao Loong @ 5:30 and headed over to ChompChomp for dinner. Hehe good food which woke us up and got us craving for more. Ordered huge portions and shared them together. Headed over to udders after dinner for some alcoholic and maoshanwang ice-cream and I srsly can't wait to turn 18 next month so I can do the ordering myself the next time :D
Had a good time camwhoring @ thevillage and kept stopping every passerby to help us with it. :/

2 more days till the start of school. Hmm, I wonder how things will go from there.

Toodles. :)

Steamboat :D

2011-06-22T21:31:00.004+08:00

Save the conclusions. Time will tell.

Had steamboat with the girls this afternoon @ Ishi Murai and well, I can say that I would choose Seoul Garden any other day. Caught up with them after so long and I'm glad that everyone's doing fine. :) All the best for your midyears girls! :D

Left at around 2 plus and hung around NP with them because Claudia and I had a movie to catch at 3.20 - Something Borrowed. Verdict: I've watched many other better romance films and the whole movie was rather draggy and it kept beating about the bush. Oh oh but there were hot guys inside though so maybe its worth a watch?

Had a very long chat with Emelia and YiLing afterwards. :D Talked for nearly 2 hours because we had to many things to share and we should do this again sometime soon! Really regret not taking any pictures with you guys :(

Super summarized blog post. Really exhausted and my screwed up body clock is killing me.

Byeeeeeeeee ♥

2011-06-21T19:35:00.001+08:00

A short break from reality. :D

2011-06-17T23:49:00.014+08:00

What if I'm at the losing end again?

Alrightos, I'm sure you wouldnt want me to bore you with my constant yaking and therefore, I've decided to be really brief about everything and just give an overall view about what actually happened.

DAY 1 AND MID DAY 2: Choir chalet.

So, we met up with the choir people again and trust me, this chalet was a blast :D, to the point that we couldn't bear for them to leave on day 2. Haven't had such fun in ages and the whole day/night was spent laughing to silly jokes and people to the point that our next door neighbour had to ask us to shut up LOL.Had the usual food but had more of chicken steak in stead which was fantabulous (Courtesy of Judith Claudia Yi Ling and I :D) and the mussels were really yummy. BBQed till about 3 am in the morning (HAHA IKR) and returned back to use the microwave instead. Celebrated Yi Ling's 18th birthday too as she was turning 18th on Thursday and had a little surprise for her on facebook :D

Had breezer later in the night and I kinda got drunk becos I didnt know what I was doing and I was totally burning up. (Yeah you can tell from the photos below). Everyone kept laughing at Boontat becos he was so funny when he got drunk and didn't know what he did at all hahaha. Sobered up a little afterwards and played many rounds of daidee with the guys before collapsing on the couch. Erwin's jokes kept us awake all night till about 6 plus till everyone finally zonked out. Woke up at 8am and continued listening to Shawn's interesting stories before sending them off to the bus stop :(

Day 2: All to ourselves ! :D

Okay so after sending them off, Claudia and I were all alone becos the girls wouldn't be arriving till the next day. Did a little work and we totally went crazy and started singing and watching Glee MVs :D. Had chicken steak, sausage, cup noodles and chicken mayo for dinner (I know thats a lot of chicken) and I couldn't stop attacking the chicken mayo becos it was so delicious !!!! Slept a little throughout the night but kept waking up and decided to stop trying after a while. Hahaha it felt really nice to have the whole apartment to ourselves but we ended up locking ourselves up in the chalet with all the curtains closed and door double locked like some refugee lol becos we were dead afraid that someone would just break in and attack us in the middle of the night.

DAY 3 AND DAY 4: Girl's chalet.

Woke up in the morning becos Claudia and I had a movie to catch and we decided to watch X-MEN and trust me, I've heard many say that this movie is a must-watch and its totally true because we were both glued to the movie screen throughout and not to forget, HOT british guys :D

Had chcken steak and cup noodles for lunch (AGAIN) and waited for the girls to arrive afterwards. Caught a little nap before they came and had our second round of BBQ! Had a pre birthday celebration for Yen Ming who's gna turn 18 on Sunday. :D

The fire was more succesful this time, much to our surprise and we wiped out all the remaining food left. Camwhored using YM's DSLR and had breezer in the night. LOL yes so apparantly i got drunk again and ended up dropping my phone twice and slamming it thrice unknowingly rofl. Watched Bride Wars with the girls and I immediately went to bed after that (oh well i didnt know what i was doing) before waking up at 3am to join Pei Yi and Claudia for gossip girl marathon. Fell asleep at 6:30am and woke up at 8:30am.
My body clock's gna be so screwed after this chalet but I guess it was all worth it. :)

Had BK breakfast in the morning before heading home!

Okay, so I really have to thank Claudia for everything becos she kinda like took care of me when I was drunk for both nights was the one preparing all our meals and stuff (HAHA like my mother) but yeap, really have to thank her aunt for this chalet and it was a really good break from reality. :)

Well, thats all for now.
Toodles and I'm off to bed! :D

Choir chalet, Girls chalet prequel.

2011-06-17T18:41:00.002+08:00

Had a really good time away from reality for the past 4 days and I can say life has never been this good till then. Choir chalet was a blast to the point that I couldnt bear for them to leave and had a good time celebrating YenMing's pre birthday with the girls. Will blog about it soon but in the meantime, time to catch up on some sleep.
Bye!

Choir chalet.

2011-06-13T15:57:00.012+08:00

Note to self: No expectations.

Spent a lazy monday morning over at Judith's, marinating all the BBQ stuff for tomorrow together with Yi Ling and Claudia. Well, it was pretty fun actually, since it was the first time we were doing something like this together and it definitely beats doing it all by yourself. Well, I think everyone's equally worried about how tomorrow's chalet might turn out, and whether there'll be awkward silences throughout the whole thing, since we haven't really met as a group for a year. But one thing I've been really sure of, is that I have faith that there would never be awkward silences between all of us, but only silences that we'll all be comfortable with. I've realized that this friendship we share isn't something that's easily broken/forgotten, but something that can be kept aside, and will still grow.

Oh, back to the preparation. So, we finished pretty early i think? At about 11 plus and such but we were all lazing around on the couch, singing to glee soundtracks and watching the season finale together. I miss singing with all of them. Yes, I really do.

Its really saddening to know that the choir chalet'll only last for 2 days, since I would be more than willing to stay tgt for a week with them. Still, like what they say, life goes on. I'll be back to reality in less than 2 weeks, and I'm sure it'll be hell.

Anyway, before I end, just wanted to share this video that we watched at Judith's just now. Okay, they're gay, I think it was really really sweet. My god, I'll think I'll really cry and die on the spot if anyone ever sings this to me hehe.

So with this, I shall see you guys 4 days later when I'm back from my little vacation at the other end of Singapore.
Bye!

Zoo!

2011-06-11T16:17:00.006+08:00

I just want to be enough.

Was at the zoo yesterday visiting the animals all over again. Haven't been there since 2 years ago and I can say that nothing much has changed, except for the playground which was newly renovated. Other than that, same stuff, same shows, same excitement. Was very disappointed that I didnt get to see Inuka becos he was my favorite. The zoo was highly populated with monkeys because everywhere we went, they were different species of monkeys/chimpanzees/baboons but all of them looked the same to me. =.=

3 of us almost got lost in the zoo while looking for the pavillon but eventually found it after walking around the same area thrice. Didnt get to go to the snake house (HAHA THANK GOD) but it was totally unintentional i swear. Had dinner at Hans which was a last min decision and rushed home afterwards!

Okay, I'll just post pictures of us and some nice shots I took. Shall not bore you with the animals since they're more than 100 shots of them.

Really, really excited for the chalet next week! Haven't met most of the choir ppl in the longest time. Hope it'll be great :D

Adiyos.

He's so precious!

But i just want to be perfect.

2011-06-01T22:32:00.007+08:00

Feels like I'm all alone in this.

Whoop. Haha morning lesson tomorrow yet I'm still online. Still not getting much drive but i guess there was a start today. Nah just ranting here, nothing much.

Sigh, as much as I feel alone and stressed up and such, I won't deny that there's a bunch of great friends around me who will always be there for me. :) The class this year is much more bonded and I definitely feel much happier. Well, not totally THAT bonded but at least we're definitely a whole lot better as compared to last year where we were always broken up into cliques. Besides, I have selective looking now I don't go for social suicide like people so everything's fine! I feel close to CCC people too becos we do understand one another and no matter what happens, we'll always stand up for one another. As chessy as it sounds, yeah.

Sometimes I do wish that time could be rewound. That way, I'll be able to undo all the silly mistakes I ever made and I could have had this life a long time ago. Its weird huh, thinking if we could live life at its present and get back to the past to fix everything based on what we know now, so that these mistakes would have never happened. But as the saying goes, if we don't fail, we'll never learn. Failing sure is good, but too much of it makes it really demoralizing for one. Well I admit, I compare. I compare looks, grades, body and such because well, I'm not perfect, and I desperately want to be.
Many times, we do wish that we could be someone else. Maybe our best friends, or ones that we silently admire, but one thing I've learnt for sure is that as much as we want to, we can't be them. As hard as we try, we'll still have an element of ourselves that'll continue screwing everything up. So, why bother?

Yeah I know, easier said than done.
