i'm in a good good mood today. can't wait for later!!!
the past week's been busy, and still, i found time to mj. omg yes i know. but it's MAHJONG know. how to resist... but i literally dieded the next day out of sheer exhaustion. i mean, imagine a 4 hr seminar after not sleeping for the whole night. totally impossible to survive please.
and highlight of the previous week: TANMEIQI's BIRTHDAY!!!
apparently we didnt take any photos that night cos of a lack of camera which was btw damn depressing.
but nevertheless, it was so much fun. just the four of us enjoying a nice dinner and a slightly crazed night afterwards at cityspace. where btw i think we totally unglammed ourselves cos of our conversation topic (the usual whenever sarah's ard ) and cos we were quite messy and rowdy with the cake and almost kisses. but it was so darn fun! and the toilet's awesome!!
on a slightly more serious note,
my gawd im so so so so so so so dead. tonnes and tonnes to do, and still, here i am, not doing anything about it.
just thinking about the 2000word law essay makes me .
alright. i shall go off now. BREAKFAST HERE I COMEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
p.s.
i love this song.
we drive tonight, and you are by my side. We're talking about our lives, like we've known each other forever.
the time flies by, with the sound of your voice. its close to paradise, with the end surely near.
and if i could only stop the car and hold onto you, and never let go (and never let go) i'll never let go (i'll never let go)
as we round the corner to your house you turned to me and said, "i'll be going through withdrawal of you for this one night we have spent."
and, i want to speak these words but i guess i'll just bite my tongue, and accept "someday, somehow" as the words that we'll hang from.
and i (i..), i don't want to speak these words. 'cause i ('cause i..), i don't want to make things any worse. and i (i..), i don't want to speak these words. 'cause i, i don't want to make things any worse.
why does tonight, have to end? why don't we hit restart, and pause it at our favorite parts. we'll skip the goodbyes. if i had it my way, i'd turn the car around and runaway, just you and i.
and i (i..), i don't want to speak these words. 'cause i ('cause i..), i don't want to make things any worse. (any worse) and i (i..), i don't want to speak these words 'cause i, i don't want to make things and i, i don't want to make things any worse
OMG ITS SATURDAY ALREADY. and still im so behind in my work.
havent started on law officially. finance is screwing me up. and seriously, don't even get me started on IT. or accounts for that matter.
FUCK.
recess week seems to have just flown by like that. and on monday, i'm so gonna die.
seriously i have no idea why im putting myself thru all this shit. uni sucks the joy right out of me. everytime i try to ask myself where do i see myself after getting my degree, i have no idea. am i just wasting my time?
ohwells.
it's been so long since. i think i've forgotten - what it feels like, how to react, when to reach out.
and i don't know how it happened, or why i feel the way i do. but somehow something stirred, and now i don't know how to proceed.
too many things to consider, too many complications. why can't things be simpler, like they used to be?
we're all moving on, and i'm somehow hoping, that maybe, just maybe, we'll be moving towards each other.
p.s.
circumstances will change and time will fly, and despite it all, i know, we'll always be the best of friends.
when there's no motivation, no nothing, how to i get started to doing something productive?
this is very bad. i came back hall to study, and so far, i've not done a single thing i'm supposed to be doing;and it's already my third day back in hall. fuck.
i finally decided that it's very stupid for me to lug my lappy back and forth everytime i go home/go back to hall. so i brought my v v old v v v v cui old lappy over to place in the hall. AND OMG I FEEL SO FRUSTRATED USING IT.its so lag that i have to press each letter like probably 5 times for it to appear on screen. and if i open too many windows, it just bloody hell hangs on me. fuck.
and so that's why its totally impossible for me to blog on that lousy piece of scrap metal.
maybe lugging my functional lappy around is a better option after all.
so anws anws, september's been a fairly good month so far.
I WATCHED THE PROPOSAL! it's the movie i've been wanting to watch since i first saw the trailer in june (or was it even earlier?) and omg it totally lives up to the expectation. awesome movie w superbly hot leads.
on a sad side note, that's the only movie i've watched this month. i want my time traveller's wife (and any other good movies)!
had my first class bbq at junhao's place at west coast (more photos on fb)!!!! anws really quite happy to have such a happening tutorial group. i dare to say we're probably the first tutorial grp to have a bbq! though it was unfortunate that i had to leave early, but i had tonnes of fun.
and since the guys POP le (FINALLYY!!!!), we had a partyworld session at clementi! i made everyone take photos w everyone else! so fun! so cool they even have this leg massager thing (lets not harp on the fact that many other smelly legs have been there before. ignorance is bliss.) which we all took turns trying. i have to say it hurts and tickles more than anything else. not fun. i really love hanging out w them.
and of cos, what's meeting up without mj, right? and w mj, ordering food is a must! macs, our best companion.
been spending nice quality time w my family as well. probably when you see the people that matter lesser, you learn to treasure them more.
random dinner session at chompchomp. the carrot cake's awesome, as is the stingray and the mantous.
had an early birthday celebration for dearest sis as well. dinnered at Angus Steakhouse. i wanted to take awesome shots of the fantastic food, but apparently as you can see, for most of it, i was too engrossed with stuffing my face w the food, that i forgot to snap some shots before attacking it. cant really blame me though, cos its really so damn delicious! and a bonus that the dessert that evening was TIRAMISU!! it's one of the signature dishes for that restaurant, and indeed it lives up to its name. honestly the best tiramisu i've ever eaten.
moving on to more trival stuffs,
have been relatively quite hardworking in school, attempting tutorials and trying my best to be more attentive during lessons, though the latter's kinda hard to achieve. still, i'm finding it damn hard to cope, and i feel so stupid. how can i not understand things that supposedly i've studied before?!?! though understandably i never really listen during lectures/tutorials last time, but still, that i managed to get thru them once, you would have thought i'd have at least an inkling of what's going on. but apparently not. i suck big time. esp at FIN MGT.
ohwells. i shall go drown my sorrows playing mafia wars and hell's kitchen. SO DAMN ADDICTIVE LA THESE GAMES.
OHOH, btw, CHUCK's AN AWESOME SERIES! I CANT WAIT TO GET THE EPISODES FROM ALVIN AND START WATCHING THEM ALL!
settling in quite nicely in hall, though school is a totally different story. i'm still slacking around not doing anything (though yes today finally i did FMtut2! ) and dozing off every now and then during lessons.
so anws. 23/8/09. Javier's first year birthday party.
v grand, and you can really see a lot of effort was put in, from the decorations (every balloon was filled with carbon dioxide, and there're quite a number of them) to the wide spread of mouth-watering food, including the strategically placed sign to guide guests to the venue.
the birthday boy with his FOUR KG cake. it's really humongous. no kidding.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAVIER TAN WEN XING!
group photos.
the loving mother-son duo. so sweet right! -melts-
and of course, tonnes of photos of my future husband (photo credits to qiqi who crawled around w him just to get the awesome shots) who looks so cute in every single one of them.
had a good day, bonding w husband-to-be, and of cos, w the dear dear people i love so much, though hid came much later due to her work commitments.
met these same few people again a few days later, this time to buy kahhou's bday present. AND OMG, I HAD ONE OF THE MOST ENTERTAINING NIGHTS EVER due to dining at pizza hut at lucky plaza. seriously entertainment to the max.
our dinner, during which all the nonsense started.
balloons to entertain us after our dinner.
and for the finale; my retarded/spastic friends.
29/8/09. Kahhou's 21st birthday party.
it was held at bottle tree park, which is such an inaccessible place. luckily sarah's husband was nice enough to give us a lift there.
as you can see, we walked awhile exploring the place abit. jumpshots are not uncommon anymore, though we did it in various states of success mainly due to my wonderful photo taking skills as opposed to sarah's not-so-wonderful ones.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAHHOU! (though i dont know if he even remembers we took group photos tgt not, cos he was kinda wasted le. )
random snaps. (HAHA still can't believe loo and i wore such similar outfits. hid say we like brothers and sisters la! )
OHOHOH talking bout looking like bros and sis, when we first walked into the function room, kahhou's mom thought that sarah and i were twins. (it must be the specs!)good for you sarah! and i shall try to accept the sad fact that i look like you too. (IM JUST KIDDING! )
though it was just a simple event, but it gave all of us the opportunity to catch up, plus the food was so so so good la. i ate so much.
and after the event, i ended up watching the final destination at bishan w hid qiqi connie cindy woony. i feel like i wasted 10bucks. cos like i kept covering my eyes thru the gory parts (which i suppose are like the best parts for this kinda shows) and feeling quite scared during the moments approaching their deaths. what can i say, i guess i have a weak heart.
supperedbreakfasted at al ameen near beauty world after that.
and and and,
IT'S MY FIRST TIME EATING NAAN!!! AND OMG IT IS SO FREAKING GOOD LA! the curry complemented the dish so well too. satisfaction to the max. (though after that i really felt like bursting cos i ate so damn much, and the popcorn/nachos durng the movies didnt help. )
we all look quite happy enjoying the dish yes? (especially hid, who's eyeing her naan so much she cant even be bothered to look up and smile at the camera.
finally im done. settling this entry almost killed me. uploading photos' a bitch. so glad im FINALLY done! now i guess i should go back to studying, and forgetting the hunger in me.
p.s. i realise that my blog officially turned one on 16th Aug 2009. time really flies. i never thought i'd stick to this blog for so long, but it has served me well (though uploading pictures really kills me) and i guess i'm gonna see if i can last another year or two here, or maybe even forever. maybe this proves if its something i really like/love, it's possible for me to commit, something which i didnt use to think was possible of me since i am a very xi3 xin1 yan4 jiu4 person.
but on the bright side, at least i can sit here at 7, typing all this crap out, though i have a lesson at 830. this would have otherwise been impossible, if not for the fact that im staying in hall.
so, life in hall has been quite ok. am v thankful that i went for hall camp, and got to make many humsup friends. JASH '09. my virgin clubbing experience. it was not as bad as i thought it would be, probably because drinking after like ten million years somehow feels quite nice. i had a blowjob that night.
anws anws, the other day got to meet up w hid qiqi clara hao kahhou justin. and WE WENT TO HAVE THE ICECREAM BUFFET at ion orchard. damn worth it cos it was 1-for-1, but now, just the idea of eating swensens icecream kind of scares me. the durian flavour was awesome though, to me it felt like eating real ice cold durian. it was that rich, that good. too bad some people dunno how to appreciate such good food.
OHOHOH! and i finally got to try out the cake deco thingy at jp. it's quite cool. got to co-design this cake for an og mate's birthday. TA-DA! it's quite a pretty cake eh! we all v proud of the final product one k!
this week has just started, and already i'm feeling kinda v tired. =x fell aslp during fin mgt seminar yesterday. its really super cmi, cos like my sleeping hours are damn cui. i sleep like at 2, and wake up at like 6. im definitely coming back to sleep after lessons today.
anws tutorials are a bitch. but i've resoluted that i'm going to do all my tutorials, since apparently majority of my tutorial group mates are freaking hard working, and do the tutorials. i shall aim to be an organised (i bought tonnes of files to organise my notes, serious) and hardworking(i really did my law tutorial last night! or at least i tried to do as much as i could before i shut down ) mugger!
this is ramdom-ness. see my pretty havaianas, which i heart tonnes, and which cost enough for me to survive for a month otherwise (and of cos i'm joking. probably the amount i spent can only last me for 2 days max? ), and the wonderfully awesome sketch i did during a v boring lesson. can't even rmb if it was in acc tut or fin mgt sem that i did that. heart the love too.
ohohoh! i suddenly rmb my main purpose of blogging!!
i recently watched 2 v good movies. G.I. JOE and UP!
SERIOUSLY, TRUST ME WHEN I SAY IT'S GOOD. GO WATCH. NOW.
G.I. JOE was an unexpectedly good movie. added bonus that the "evil" minion is so fucking hot. and as usual, the guy (i have no idea wth is his name still) is charming and handsome even w his super short hair. -swoons- have to agree w hid that he's probably one of the minority that looks good w an army-style kinda haircut.
UP! had me crying so many times i lost count. its not tears of sadness, but rather, tears becaused i was touched. i wish i'll have a relationship as depicted in the movie. sweet, simple, and one that i can consider an adventure in my heart too.
sorry for the long absence. i've been not only lazy, but also busy.
so anws, i have officially started school. new environment, new people.
just back from 1 week hall camp actually. utterly tired, super dirtied, but camp was fun. cant rmb the last time i had to push myself so much. HUMSUP HYDRUS!(camp photos on fb.)
anws anws. some time before camp, went kbox w hid qiqi sarah. ladies night as usual. and the coolest thing was that sarah realised that exactly 1 year ago (30th july 2008), we were also at the same kbox. and this was us one year ago (time flies man). and omg can you just see how super skinny stupid sarah (SSSS!!!!) has become?!?! gosh! its amazing i tell you. im so jealous. blah.
next year again k lovelies!!!
next up, tiny's birthday!
went to her place to surprise her the night of her birthday.
as you can see, some of us are quite bo liao people. but it really seemed quite entertaining at that point of time marhhhh.
finally it was twelve and we all went to surprise her! the cake was awesome btw, though it'd have been better if there were no raisins, but wells, life isnt perfect. and oh it was quite an entertaining night cos we tried to play with the skateboard thingy (i have no idea whats the name for it), and some of us went to hans at some ulu yishun place for supper after that.
opening present time! its actually a process, if you go from outside clockwise and slowly work your way in.
alright, maybe i shall go and entertain myself w fb, or maybe study! QIAO IS HARDWORKING!!!!
somehow or rather, i found myself taking a quiz i took sometime back before, again.
and the results slightly differ. hmmm. wonder what that means. have i changed?
anws, a comparison of then, and now.
Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties. (then)
You are intelligent, honest and sweet. You are friendly to everybody and don't like conflict. Because you're so cheerful and fun people are naturally attracted to you and like to talk to you. (now)
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true. (then)
You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes. (now)
Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person. (then)
You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship. (now)
The seriousness of your love:
You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with? (then)
You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with? (now)
Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can. (then)
You may not like to study but you have many practical ideas. You listen to your own instincts and tend to follow your heart, so you will probably end up with an unusual job. (now)
The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life. (then)
You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success. (now)
How do you view success:
You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous. (then)
You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous. (now)
What are you most afraid of:
You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear. (then)
You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear. (now)
Who is your true self:
You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long. (then)
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve. (now) some are so contridicting. while others, remain scarily true.
watched SG vs LFC yesterday at the kallang stadium w hid yasser pj arwin. the final score was 5-0. no need to guess which side was the victor uh.
have to say it wasnt quite the best match ever (quite boring). but i guess i should still feel quite awed by the fact that i saw some of the best soccer players play live (though most of the action was during the second half, of which i couldnt see clearly cos was sitting at the north stand, and honestly, all i saw was mostly stickmen running around more than anything else). they looked so smalllllllll from where i was sitting.
and omg you have no idea how much i regret not bringing my camera. it's a mistake i will never ever make ever again. gosh.
taken w my phone. the KOP stand was awesome and so noisy and forever seemed to be bustling with some sort of commotion. the kallang waves were entertaining as well!
suppered after that at bukit timah, before arwin sent us all home (minus hid).
i shall go off now to depress over my mistake yesterday of not bringing a cam and missing the opportunity to capture the likes of torres and alonso.
so cute right! and that day he seemed to be in a superbly good mood, and kept grinning at me. or maybeit's the effect i have on him i guess.
school's starting in two weeks, with the F.O.C. in one week. i've never felt so unprepared before. and more than anything else, uncertain.
i'm scared, yet at the same time i'm looking forward. looking forward to hopefully another three amazing years in a different environment.
please let me remember what being me feels like. somehow i feel i've lost a part of myself somewhere along the way, and no matter how desperately i try to find that part of me back, it's gone.
anws yes i'm now on facebook, finally. apparently the lure of playing games against a tonne of people's too hard for me to resist. so dear friends, add me if you want to play games w me!
looking forward to the match tmr! hopefully more photos dens!
OMG I SO WNA DIE!!! I TYPED THIS SUPER LONG ENTRY, AND IT DISAPPEARED ON ME.
FUCK.
anws,
as i was saying, qi's back in australia now for a few days, and though life's still been quite happening so far, i predict that it's gonna get quite boring.
so, on thurs, qi's last day in singapore, hid and i went over to her place, and chilled. didnt really do much, cept for playing dai dee and laughing so hard. i guess when you're hanging out w fav people, everything just feels v nice and the laughter comes easily. anws, i must declare, amongst the three of us, I'M THE QUEEN OF DAIDEE k! though qi did almost knock me off the throne, but i must emphasise, it's just ALMOST, and hid has a loooonnnng way to go. but anyway, it was an awesome afternoon.
dinner after that was the best. i ate so many dumplings i think i almost exploded. but who cares. it's good, and i get to eat it only like what, once or twice a year? so of cos must grab the opportunity to eat as many as i can whenever i get to eat it.
alas, good times never last, (insert dramatic and emo music here) and soon, it was time to proceed to the airport, where we were joined by pierre and linus. chilled at wang cafe before qi and pierre went to board their flight.
it was a bittersweet night.
so i guess it's goodbye for now, but i'll be looking forward to nov/dec, during which miss piggy will be back w all her retardedness!
friday was a long but fruitful and awesome day.
started the day out early by gg for my driving test. i was so darn nervous, and it didnt help that my tester looked so stern and scary. but i suppose he's a nice guy behind his stern facade, because i managed to pass.
queuing for the application of my license took even longer, and it was so pathetic of me to not have any money in my nets that i had to get the help of some random stranger to pay for the application first, and pay her back in cash.and i suppose there is some lesson behind this, such as that i should start saving and stop spending so much (which i am planning to do, but more about that later).
the silver lining came in the form of the refund of the balance in my ssdc account, which means more $$ for me.
finally everything was done and i went to meet sarah at nyp to collect her diploma. apparently we managed to bypass the temp screening thing because we came from the back gate and we were feeling quite smug about it, only to discover that in order to be served by the clerk at student services, we had to take our temperature first.
like the two sua gus we are, we went for temp screening, where only we two had no idea what we were doing, whilst all the other students just swiftly passed thru it, knowing what to do and everything. but anws, gotta give credit to nyp for having the most efficient temp screening system i've seen so far (though i have to admit i havent seen many), where students just walk pass the scanner without having to stop and proceed to take a sticker that is automatically dispensed, afterwhich tapping their card, and they're done.
finally collected the diploma, (which sarah noted the clerk did not even bother to check whether our temperature was checked ) and we went hub for lunch, as well as buy tickets for our movie at night.
proceeded to hid's place after we parted, for the best side dish ever - ROTI BOYAN. it's an amazing snack made out of potato and onion (which btw usually i detest so this is an exception) covered by some sort of prata like skin. best thing ever i swear.
went w hid for her lesson afterwards at sim, where i spent my time alternating between reading Kiss An Angel by Susan Elizabeth Philips (AMAZING BOOK!) and disturbing hid by telling her her eye candy is not really that hot. she disagrees, of cos.
bussed to amk after that, and met up w qiqi sarah and leon, serah's husband. slacked outside macs w 20 nuggets, cos we had some time before the movie at midnight. anws, i was amazed at the amount of people wandering around amk in the middle of the night. does no one need to sleep anymore? or may im just not accustomed to the night life, and this is actually a norm. i suppose it's more the latter than the former though.
movie was ok, though i dont think the rest really got what the movie was about, or enjoyed it very much. like sarah puts it, they all just she3 ming4 pei2 jun1 zi3, me being the jun1 zi3. and because it was such a long movie, and i had had such a long and tiring day, i got quite sleepy halfway thru it, and was in this super relaxed and comfy position, dozing off just a little, when suddenly, there was this loud noise, and a hand came out of no where on the screen and grabbed. i literally jumped out of my seat man! but wells, at least that kept me awake through the rest of the show.
sunday was another awesome day.
went to play badminton w hid and her family and her father's friend and cousin. head count: hid, hid's bro, hid's mom, hid's dad, hid's dad's friend, hid's dad's friend's cousin, and of cos, me!
two hours (5pm to 7pm), two courts.
it was amazing. and hid's dad's friend and friend's cousin was so amazing. they are two superbly good players. hid's dad is awesome too, and always trash hid and i when we play 2v1 w him. hid's mom is damn cute when she plays, and hid's bro has abundant energy that never seems to run out despite his running around the whole court and being so hyper. how nice it is, to be fit and young.i wish i were that too.
dinnered at hid's place, afterwhich hid drove me to JP, where we FOUND THE PERFECT GIFT for a certain someone miles away.
decided we should go henderson waves after that, since the night was stil young, and i've been wanting to go, and hid's been saying how amazing that place was since that time she went w her family.
hid drove there, and because her sense of direction as always is amazing, we didnt get lost at all.
the night scenery was amazing, though it's such a waste that the sky was cloudy, and we didnt get to see stars.
we are +66.52m above sea level.
anws we didnt stay long there, cos it was so dark and everywhere around there were so many couples and we felt so out of place. just took a few photos and we hastily left after hid said she saw this whole line of couples making out.
and highlight of the night: I DROVE US BACK FROM HENDERSON WAVES TO JURONG.
omg it was so awesome. i even drove on the expressway, AYE i think. THANKS HID FOR THE OPPORTUNITY!
so it's monday again. and it's the start of a new week. this week promises to be quite boring. but i shall hope for the best!
and oh, i've decided that i shall save hard and save up, once i start school that is, for my first car. probably if i save damn hard and do not aim for that expensive a car, i'll be able to own one by end of year three, or even earlier if i can just GETAJOBOMG.
for now,
i'm off to try to beat qi's highscore at typing maniac. that game is so addictive.
i never knew how little i know about the majority of people on my msn contact list, until recently, when i tried to organise the list and add information. i dont even know/remember the names of some of the contacts i have, that's how bad it is.
anws. i went to the flyer again the other day. this time round with qiqi and loo.
our tickets! and the flyer really is quite a great structure i suppose.
as usual, instead of looking at the scenery (let's be honest here, there's really nothing much to see, is there?), we took tonnes of random photos.
group photos!!! and apparently, yes it is possible to secure the camera to the horizonal pole, and set the timer and have no harm befall the camera, and take an awesome group photo.
and the highlight of the ride... . . .
JUMPSHOTS! superduperawesome!i think jumpshots is a BN kinda thing eh? anws taking the jumpshots entertained us, and just check out how high i jumped!!!!
after the ride, we went down to the rainforest discovery walk place at lvl 1. walked ard and took some photos there too. was v nice to take there because the lighting's so awesome. we even climbed atop a "mountain" just to take some photos. and the waterfall may be small, but wells, it's still quite nice as a backdrop for our photos.
went bowling after that, loo is good, and qiqi is so lucky, which in itself is a skill, and i'm just so lousy, that even mentioning my score would be a disgrace. but anws, i'm learning how to spin, and maybe who knows, one day i'll be better!
chipped my nail in the process of the spin , and qi, being the darling that she is, specially bought me a nail clipper just so i dont have to bear w the agony.
went for dinner w her at sakae sushi after bowling w qiqi and loo. we had the most retarded meal ever la. honestly i've never been more retarded than when im hanging out w her man. i swear we do the stupidest things together, and we've both come to the conclusion that even ten twenty years down the road we'll still be like that whenever we're together. that i suppose, is the beauty of our friendship.
went city space after that after meeting up w linus. pierre and his friends joined us there as well. i heart the place so much. enjoyed the ambience, music, drinks, and especially the little titbits they put out for us there, though i have to say the stairs are a killer man. toilet trips are a chore. but aside from that, it's a very nice place to wind down after a long day.
the view of the city 70 stories above ground. imagine that view right in front of your eyes. words cant even describe how spectacular it is.
saturday met up w hid qiqi sarah for a dinner and small gathering, since it's been long since we hung out and all. had an enjoyable dinner at pizzahut, though there was a slight dispute over who should eat the last few drumlets. met up w qi after that, and went down to timbre.
that's where it started.
the rain, i mean.
because timbre is alfresco-themed, rain is frowned upon there. but alas for us, no matter how much we would not have enjoyed its company, the rain still decided to pay us a visit the night we went there. we had only just gotten a table and was about to settle down and order us some drinks, when it started to pour.
ended up slacking by the stairway near the toilet, and yes i know it sounds pathetic, but its much better than standing outside w the crowd and getting splashed by the rain. and time somehow just flew by as we sat there actually. (i suppose it's true time flies when you spend it w me thens. ) anws the rain did finally stopped, and we managed to sit outside for awhile.
photos of us after the rain. though the quality of the photos are lacking, i somehow feel it's quite a nice set of shots. probably because all my fav people are in it.
sarah's hubby came to pick her up soon after, and gave us all a lift to clarke quay. met up w fabby fangyi kejun, and we all went forbidden city. MYGOSH I HATE THAT PLACE man. so noisy, so much so that i couldnt even hear myself. i think the music gave me a headache la! and the drinks were not v good, but wells, at least they're relatively cheaper.
we all left after, but not before we met up w hady awhile too at clarke quay. went for supper w qi and qiqi at chomp2.
and ohmygosh we ate so much there la! porridge, carrot cake, stingray. if that was dinner it'd have been ok, but to eat that in the middle of the night... gosh i honestly felt quite guilty after that. but the food was v enjoyable. chomp2 has the best carrot cake ever! bumped into george and friends there too, and after qiqi left, had a little talk-cock session w them before pierre came to pick qi up and dropped me home otw.
and i learnt something from qi! WHEN YOUR 'AUNT' IS VISITING, APPARENTLY YOU CAN EAT ALL YOU WANT, AND NEVER GROW FAT.i sincerely hope from the bottom of my heart that that is true!
sunday sarah brought javier over to hid's place. initially we were gg to play badminton but the cc screwed up the boking, so anws, played w javier instead.
he's absolutely the cutest boy i ever know la! makes me wish i were 19 years younger, or him 20 years older. though i actually doubt sarah would appreciate me as a daughter-in-law.
anws we did play badminton, or at least, we attempted to do so, at the open court near hid's place. the wind however, was v against the idea. despite that, we still gave our best shot at it, w sarah shouting like some mad woman whenever she couldnt get the cock and entertaining us as usual. damn fun. after finally giving up, sarah and i had several competitions across the two courts - sprinting, duck-walking, and running backwards. we came to the conclusion that there is an advantage to having longer legs.
sarah's hubby picked her up after our adhoc badminton game, and qiqi and i went back to hid's place to enjoy DURIANS!!!! damn awesome! hid and siblings had to suffer from the wonderous scent of the fruit though, cos all of them dont really like the king of fruits.
hid sent qiqi home and sent me to taka where i met my parents and sis for dinner. and dinner was superb! the steak i had was so good, that everything else pales in comparison.
awesome weekend.
and talking bout awesome weekends, some time back i went rollerblading w my dad, and it felt so great. the evening sky was beautiful, the exercise was much needed, and most imptly, the companionship of my dad was heartwarming, and reminded me of how parents will always be there, doing they're best to provide support and encouragement - the silent guardian over us children.
am starting on a new tw drama, MY QUEEN. so far it looks promising, so hid's been repeatedly saying how good it is, so im gg to perservere and watch on.
even in a soundless black void of darkness, if you were there, i would know instantly.
i applaud the person who has the conviction to say such strong words.
because, honestly, even i wonder if i would. and would you?
took this quiz the other day, and here's what i got:
Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.
Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.
The seriousness of your love:
You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?
Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.
The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.
How do you view success:
You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.
What are you most afraid of:
You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.
Who is your true self:
You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.
i thought SOME of what was stated was quite true, but others, not so.
anws, check out below the coolest music video hands down. have no idea what the song means, neither do i like it, but still, the idea for the video, just so freaking awesome!
ENJOY!
more about recent happenings next entry!
till then, just watch the video again and be amazed all over again.
met up w qi(YAY FINALLY BACK!) and linus last fri, and we had the most fattening night ever. dinner at giraffe, dessert at selegie, and after slacking by the poolside, supper at srgn gardens. super fattening, but still, it was super cool to hang out and talk all sorts of crap again.
monday was an awesome day! FLYER W QI AND HID!
met qi at her place, after finally figuring out how to get there (and wells it's not really my fault we got lost right? i mean, punggol is such a complicated place to navigate in. ), and proceeded to the flyer.
stopped for coffee break before gg on. and you can just tell i'm the most normal among the three of us, cos the two of them are just so retardedly cute.
our superly cheap tickets at 10bucks each! the wonder of being students!
we stopped to take photos (main purpose being to walk super slowly and let the front people clear so we could have a whole cabin just for us) at the pathway leading up to the boarding area.
finally we boarded, and yes we got the whole cabin to ourselves. SO YAY!!!! we practically treated the place like its our house and threw our stuffs everywhere, even listened to music out loud.
so anws, snapped away and here's the result.
the sights we saw while onboard. (honestly i didnt think it was anything much. ) and we even passed by this miniature of the IR, which i really think is so cute!
and of cos, we didnt only take photos of the view. here's us!
loved all the shots really. basically i just love spending time w these two.
so after flyer we played pool at ms (which i totally suck at and qi totally kicked ass), and shopped ard. was desperately trying to spend 50bucks so hid could get free parking.
qi met up w pierre after that to watch transformers (which btw till now i haven't watched ), and hid and i went to meet qiqi loo hao.
caught I LOVE YOU, MAN which was such a gay but hilarious movie. surprisingly good i suppose. was quite entertained, though i felt it was just a for laughs movie more than anything else.
selegie for supper (i can just feel myself expanding horizontally ) before gg home.
long day, but fun.
tues went ntu for my body checkup in the morning, had an awesome lunch at hid's place, and took a walk around haji lane/arab street that area w her in the evening. met up w qi linus pierre at night, and had a mini mj cum guitar heros session. that is one helluva hard game to play man. we all suck BIG TIME(except for linus who probably practices at home all the time anws ). i was more entertained by the sponge gun thingy.
yesterday i went shopping alone!!! for the first time. i guess its probably because i always thought that it'd be quite weird to shop alone, and i always admired people who could shop on their own. it just seemed so lonely. plus i need opinion before i bought stuffs most of the time. but anws, yesterday my shopping spree at tampines proved to be quite fun, and fruitful too! bought three tops and only spent 60bucks! am quite proud about that to be honest. WOOTS! was super excited to see MANGO there too but was duly disappointed when i couldnt find the shorts i'd been searching for. refreshed my memory bout differentiation at night when i went to crash hid's lecture.
oh and i saw the phone i wanna get next already! probably shouldnt though.
ohwells. more about that next time, or not.
i should probably still go gym though im not meeting qi today le, before i become too fat, and the man of my dreams (who im sure i'll definitely meet in uni) despise me for that.
p.s. just something i came across which struck me.
meeting and parting comes as a set. wouldn't it be sad if you tried to ignore love, only because you knew one day it would come to an end?
HELLO!!! looooooonnnnng entry (but mostly filled with pictures) ahead! =D
something random first. the smileyfaces me hid qiqi sarah have. so cute right!!! and of cos MS SHY IS MINE.
so firstly,
last saturday (coincidentally 0613) actually wanted to go westcoast chill w hid and qiqi. so we happily went the nearby food place to get some food, with full intention of picnic-ing there, only to have the rain twart our plans. super lame cos we just parked the car nia, and it started pouring. as you can see, in the end we took shelter at mac and ate our food there. really quite pathetic but well at least we got to see a frog.
that same day after that me and hid went to watch 3d movie monsters vs alien! trust me, we werent the only ones taking photos k! anyways the movie was ok, though the 3d thingy was only really obvious at certain parts of the movie. and nooooowwww, for the highlight!!!
ZOO - 19 June 2009 (ME, HID, QIQI)
me and qiqi went in first and the first thing we saw was hid's distant relative. qiqi had the pleasure of taking photo w it.
went to watch the animal show rainforest fights back. was kinda rushing there but we managed to get front row seats (which btw i totally regret after that cos i got splashed by the water when the man fell in ). check out the beautiful peacock. awesome eh! and i super tyco to have gotten such an awesome shot of it.
hid finally came and we went to watch the next show, which showed the penguins, sea lion etc. lucky we got there early and got awesome seats cos it was so super crowded, plus there were so many annoying kids. the sea lion performance was just awesome cos he's so darn cute (HE CAN WAVE!!!)!!!! check out the awesome shot of him jumping up for the ball. though i wonder why he didnt do the balance-ball-on-tip-of-nose trick. is that a performance for seals only? and qiqi w her love, penguins!
moving on, we went to see all the animals at the zoo. dont really rmb the sequence exactly, but anws, photos of the animals we saw, and of us of cos.
v v v old turtles/tortoises.
giraffes!!!! so so so pretty!!! (there's one called lucy. )
at the reptile gallery. try to see the humongous snake near qiqi's feet and the star-shell turtle near her face.
ostrich!!! apparently they are fast runners! and i managed to snap one while its running, so YAY! ^^
halfway we decided to take a break at the kids area. apparently the place has changed so much cos the web thingy doesnt exist anymore. i rmb when i was darn young i ever went there and climbed the web. it was so fun lar! now it's some splash pool. lols so being the kids that we are, we took a ride atop the carousel. LOVE IT!
after our rest stop, we continued our tour.
beautiful zebras.
the awesome white tigers.
KANGAROOS!!! (things from australia makes me miss you even more qi!) anws the little boy is super cute (check the photo of me and the little boy in the truck)!!!
flamingos!! not to praise myself, but i really love the shot on the bottom right. awesome.
some other random (but yes still cute) animals we saw along the way.
some photos of me w the mostly fake animals (only one real animal, which was the horse, and which i was really scared to stand too close to as well).
i love this group photo. took it at the kangaroo area actually.
and with that, i conclude that our trip to the zoo was an amazing and fun filled one, though it was tiring cos the weather was so good and sunny and we had to walk all the way.
because it was still early, and more probably cos we didnt wna part that early, we went to town to catch a dvd from e2max before going home.
long and tiring day, but definitely satisfying and fun.
on another note, today was a tiring day for me. due to some lame-brained idea/initiative, i ended up at a flea market w my mom during some family carnival event at srgn. and no we werent there as customers, but rather we were there to sell my mom's clothes. TOUGH man i must say. there wasnt much of a crowd, and because it was MY MOM's clothes... so yea. ended up w total sales of like $40 odd dollars only. and thats for hard work for almost 4hrs k. lols. but anws luckily the space was free for us cos we're srgn co residents. so anws no loss made la. super shag now though. thas why just wna complain abit.
ok thank you so much for surviving this long entry. i shall be off now to watch more anime!
because i build my world around you and i don't wanna know what it's like without you
You are a very determined and willful individual. You have strong set goals that you plan to reach no matter what.
You may be an overachiever at times but that's because you want to be successful in your life. The greatest accomplishment for you is when you reach a high goal. However, you constantly worry if you're not good enough to do something, or if your life doesn't go according to plan. You worry a lot about your future, and if it will meet all your high criteria. Don't worry, with your determination, and hard work ethic, and organization chances are things will go according to plan.
took this random quiz.
and i have to admit, i sincerely do fear my future. because i have no plans and no ambition. strong set goals? what a joke. till now i have no idea what i want to be when i grow up. but i know, i dont want a boring life. rather, i want one where i love my job, give my all for whatever i do, and be whoever i want to be.
but at this point of time, it still seems so unreacheable, so out of my reach. ohwells.
make me somebody in the future.
yesterday had kbox session+sorta farewell to the two guys who's gone/gg to camp.
and today, i rotted my day away at home, though the fifa session w loo made me happy!
anws i foresee my coming days to be quite boring since the guys are gg army one by one, and the girls are mostly starting work/school soon. lets have more mj/k/outings before thens!
P.S.
TO THE PIG OF THE UNIVERSE,
HELLOOOOOOOO UR MISSED AND I'M COUNTING DOWN TILL THE DAY UR BACK!!!
