2012-02-19T22:38:00.001+08:00

Decided to give it a go by planting tomatoes and vanilla beans.
I predict a 30% success rate, but I'll still try.

Haven't been blogging cos I need to practice censorship;
People judge too much by your honest thoughts and feelings, making me type out lengthy blog posts and eventually not even posting it.

Then what's the use of this place anyway?
I voice my honest opinions people not happy, would you rather face a fake personality who twists her words just to make one satisfied?

And I dislike it when people talk to me about what I blog.

Enough. Am feeling horrible and angsty and a feeling of wanting to shut the world out.

Leave me alone.

I miss the three of you,

2012-02-09T23:22:00.001+08:00

most from secondary school.

MBS

2012-02-09T10:27:00.002+08:00

After work yesterday I wanted to go home straight because I was very tired, so tired that I kept making mistakes again and again.
Called Carmina to ask about our class MBS outing and told her I wouldn't be going.
However when Oli took over the phone and persuaded me...

One does not simply reject Oli; so I made my way down to MBS.

Wished I could've stayed.

The second tallest building at the left is actually my office.

Blogging during work.

2012-02-08T14:36:00.001+08:00

Cos I can do so.

Just came back from lunch with my colleagues, it's quite amusing to listen to them talk about 上面的 (upper people) while I sit and laugh silently.

Yes, not my usual horrible terrible vegetable laugh.
Anyway at work I'm not even myself. I don't talk unless they talk to me.

I think I have an ability to make situations very awkward.

Oh oh have I mentioned, I didn't think of tissue paper booking as anything at all until my first time booking seats at Burger King with these very essentials.

I was VERY AMUSED.
Seriously! Usually what we (ex)students do is put our bags down and just go buy food right?
In the working environment, tissue paper is the key to survival during lunches.
If you don't have tissue paper, you can't book seats; if you take turns with your colleague to buy, most likely you'll be late cos the queues are ridiculously long during lunch hours.

But today has just proven that The Booking of Seats with Tissue Paper can fail.

Apparently when my colleague came back with her food there were two other 'innocent' people sitting down already, claiming that it was their tissue paper.

The seats were magnanimously given since we found more seats anyway, and my colleagues joked about telling those women to, 'You wait, I call my boss here' which I thought was funny.

Next time I'll put something on the back of my tissue paper. When people claim its theirs, I will turn it triumphantly to reveal a photo of a naked man, and say,
"Oops, I guess it's really yours."

Psychological warfare much.

Work has been what people would call, sit and shake leg.
Well I do have busy days; but I hate having nothing to do cos I get so drowsy and I have to sustain being awake. Guh.

Monday we had department lunch at Royal Plaza which was a buffet consisting of seafood, sushi and Asian food.
Was throbbing with delight but I took less than what I would usually take at a buffet cos I must 意思意思, you know.
Anyway what I ate was already more than what my female colleagues ate and I felt like a damned pig.
The seafood is REALLY GOOD. The sweetest meat I've ever tasted from shelled creatures.

Dessert that I took; deliciously fragrant pecan and chocolate ice cream, a creamy berry mousse, a berry cheesecake hidden behind my ice cream and a creme brûlée, which I think I MUST learn how to make.

This was almost equivalent to the amount my colleagues were sharing.

OH WELL.

Gonna get back to looking at my nails grow.

2012-02-05T17:05:00.002+08:00

How I spent my only day in almost a month where I can finally take a rest at home.

Continued my RM series for awhile, and I took off some time to read up on university admission criteria and the likes.
Looked for culinary arts courses in Singapore, and found out there's close to none, except for one in SIT but it's more inclined to accept poly students.

Then I realized my future is bleak.

Popular,

2012-02-05T00:21:00.006+08:00

You're gonna be popular.

Today received a last minute sms from band, asking me to go down pass my DSLR to them for filming.
Which resulted in me not being able to make it for a secondary school dinner.
I don't blame anyone but myself, because I already promised a few days before I'd go down on Saturday to help, but I didn't get any reply until today that's why I wasn't able to make it for the dinner, which Janice complained that, even though she booked me 3 weeks in advance, band always has to be in the way.

Honestly I don't know when will I ever extricate myself from band. I really do love the people and the music, I envy the J1s and J2s for being in band now.

Very very much.

When you love something so much, it's just hard to give it up.

And what makes it harder is when the people who are supposed to support you do the opposite.
Am I selfish for thinking for my future at the expense of ... I don't know, financial capability?
I honestly meant it as a friendly suggestion, I didn't want to limit myself to only local choices.
You say band is a waste of money and time, you think I can't do well in academics, you presume my efforts in baking to be merely a fad.
I got an admin job, because that was what you wanted me to do.

What do you want me to achieve in this life, when you don't support me in even a single thing I enjoy doing?
Are you leading my life for me?

I'm not angry, but hurt, at these thoughts.

It's been almost a week.
And what we can do is sleep over these problems like we always do.

-----------------------------------------
LegACy photos.

Banner which many of us worked on. Glitter for AC was thought of last minute because the blue colour didn't really work.

I miss the times when percussion is usually the last to leave, like that day.

My gifts for this concert.

The section. Probably the last time we'd ever perform together.

My juniors, J1s included.

Went to Jun Yong's house today for CNY visiting.

Thank you for that day.

It's over.

2012-01-30T01:25:00.002+08:00

Even though it's late now and I'm going to regret like mad at work the next day, I would like to express my thoughts on this concert before they fade away.

Throughout the first half my heart was beating non stop. I was so nervous.

Before that soundcheck took so long, especially for percussion and a few other alumni who had to sit through all the rehearsals.
And I did get irritated. By the lack of time and last minute rushing because I absolutely hate last minute work.

Everything happened so quickly, and coupled with the fact I didn't eat until from morning til after concert, (which I hope turns out to be a good thing for my diet ultimately.) I just wanted it over and done with.

After Scheherazade I swear my arms were gonna fall off; never have I played so much cymbal parts in a single concert.

There were moments when my eyes got lost in the scores. Lack of concentration, which obviously resulted in mistakes.

I would love to say more but this is an open platform for scrutiny.

Not to say there weren't any good moments; especially playing with the full section again.
The fun times with my section.
Interesting sounds by new instruments; i.e bird call, wind machine

Something I've noticed, or rather what our section has;
How people just come and play our percussion instruments without permission.
People just help themselves to the sticks or instruments and start whacking the mallets. Or trying out the gong.
Even worse, using the timpani as a freaking table.

Is percussion that insignificant to you guys? Why do most people think almost everyone can just grab a tambourine or triangle then they'll be able to play?

Sure, you can make noise, but you can never make music.

You don't see us going to any instrument just lying around, then grabbing it and playing it right.

I do hope people will learn to respect percussion more.

To end off, let's have a good week ahead.

I am tired.

2012-01-28T00:55:00.001+08:00

It's been days of consecutive work, and then ending off with band and I reach home quite late.
It's almost the same as school days.

While people look forward to the weekends, I don't (for this) because I know it's gonna be hell and I have work straight on Monday.

Today Mr Alvin was talking about human willpower or something. About pushing yourself to the farthest.

But I am desperate for some time of my own. :(
I don't even talk to my parents, I don't have time to tidy my room which is getting cluttered. I need to hand wash my own handwash clothes which are piling up.

I just get home, nua a bit while snacking on CNY goodies and bathe and sleep.

Let this pass soooooooon.

I dread the following four days.
Work+Band+Work+Band.

I am very very very afraid I cannot last until concert day.

Which is, this Sunday.

If you're interested please tell me.
I personally look forward to Symphonic Overture and Machu Picchu.
Oh, and there's no more Jurassic Park.

Work today was a torture.
As my supervisor was on leave I was totally free for the whole day.
Like I'm just there to sit in front of the desk and do absolutely nothing.
I counted; I spent less than an hour the whole day doing actual work.
It's not a good thing seriously; you feel so bored you get sleepy but you can't sleep at work.
And it's only the fourth day...

Don't know how to survive. :(

Here's the CNY post. Hardly any mood this year so it's going to be a boring post. I didn't even touch mahjong (like I know how to play anyway) and cards this year.

CNY Eve's; my mum cooked this ... I can't remember at what time of the day.

Very rich and plentiful pot of savory stuff with a flavorful broth.
But it's like once a year... bleh.

So here goes CNY Visiting.
It's like with every year it gets more and more boring...
And with the pile of goodies in every person's house, it's like a battle with my inner fatty devils.
WHAT AM I SAYING. But you get it.
... Sigh.

Family photo at home before going out!

With Crystal

Stole Jessica's Fun-O-Rama coupons that she has to sell this year. MUHAHAHAHA.

The adults.

With Mavis :)

Sisters.

Cousins!

He's cute. We were upstairs playing guitar and piano and singing; he gave instructions and we were to play the songs he knew along with him. Haha.

Crystal, MeiChin and Mavis

Patronizing scenery shot.

W/o my brother :0

Full family photo, and ironically without the owner of the house...

Here's what left at home.
My family finished the pineapple tarts when I've only had one so far. Sian.

My favourite; kueh bangkit bought from Sandy's shop. Melty and very fragrant. I should learn how to make this.

Love letters. Not exactly something I like cos the top of your inner mouth can get ulcers if you eat too much.

Arrowhead. Tastes abit like tapioca chips but Sandy emphasized it's health-ier. :)

My aunt made these! Cashew nut cookies and almond cookies coated with chocolate. Plus another box of rolled pineapple tarts. And the thing is; she's Malay!
Best of both worlds, I appreciate her celebrating it with us and always making these goodies :)

I'll post up other photos when the rest have posted them.

And now I shall go sleep for the next day of work.
:(

CHINESE NEW YEAR EVE

2012-01-22T11:18:00.007+08:00

Busy week, with BAND EVERY DAY!

Went back school in the morning for banner painting, and rehearsal. Afterwards went to Sophy's house for a mini class gathering.

The road to her house was atrocious.
She told me all it took was 20 minutes to reach her house from school but the walk from the bus stop to her house along took me 20 minutes.

IT WAS A FREAKING UPHILL.
Like climbing a mountain.

Sophy and her dog, Yuki!

Her dog is mad cute. Even I, a cat lover, won't mind having a dog like hers cos it's so tame and cute.

*pat pat pat*

It's quite timid I suppose; cos she was shivering when the whole bunch came.

Pancakes, NON-PREMIX, Sophy emphasized, heh.
REAL BAKERS FTW

Blueberries

Master chef Ryan DC.

Grapes. There's fruits cos we were having a fondue party, plus marshmallows and pancakes and a chicken that Tzeboss brought.

Master chef eating from the chopping board.

Homey feeling :)

Master chef trying to decorate Tzeboss' plate of food.

Samuel with Yuki.
It's damn funny when Samuel tried to 'diagnose' her and pretending to understand her.

We had louhei too!

Finishing it up cos no one wants it. Lou hei can't be fattening right it's all vegetables...

Jeremy with his chocolates for the class

What's Shuzhen doing?!

PHOTO.
Yes I'm with YUKI MUHAHAHAHA

Afterwards I went back to band, again.

We finally got a bird call which is DAMN CUTE.

BEHOLD. I'm getting Teow to get me one cos it's too awesome already.

Add water and blow, and there's chirping!

Ish with his badass marimba skills.

And the section + Reynard made a nice birthday card for me! :):):):)

There's cupcake designs!

Whai they so kind...

SECTION PHOTO!

Followed by reunion dinner at night, and here's my little cousin Chelsea.

SO CUTE. Ah I'm not good with babies but she's so adorable. :)

This post was made in a rush cos my dad is getting mad at me for not spring cleaning.
kbye

WANNA BE SWEET?

2012-01-20T22:34:00.004+08:00

Okay.
Perhaps, in the future I will look back and cringe at my obsessive behaviour, feel immense shame of my fangirl self, be amazed at my somehow sudden crazed feminine stalker characteristic but...

BEHOLD.
5 precious (pink...) items from Etude House, FEATURING SHINEE

I've failed the Resisting Temptation test.

SPECIMEN B

Folders with their faces on it. I purposely positioned my camera to induce a flash on Minho's face COS ONEW HAS TO SHINE

SPECIMEN D

Pretty notebook which the salesgirl said was the last and gave it to me. She could tell I was crazed. Maybe she was scared.

I was planning this a few days before, whether to ask after their SHINee promotion, what will they do with Minho's life-size cardboard self.

But I didn't. :)
Guess I haven't reached the Point of No Return.

It's very ... pretty. (I feel awkward using the word pretty BUT IT'S THE ONLY WORD TO DESCRIBE IT)

SPECIMEN B WITH C

Incase you ignorant beings say the 2 are the same.

And if you've noticed, yes there's no FREAKING Onew badge and all's left is the 2 of them.

HOW COULD YOU NOT HAVE ONEW

The salesgirl said I could go back and get it once they've restocked.

I was only planning to walk in, buy $10 worth of items, get a badge and be satisfied but my mum bought quite a lot more under the influence of the salesgirl. That's why I received so much. :)
So I guess I'm lucky.

AGH. Need to stop spending so much when I haven't even started earning...

Work is pretty bad.
I've been making so many mistakes like no one's business and I feel useless there. :(
Plus wearing heels is very very very straining on my feet. I feel like dying.

I guess shopping is indeed a 'therapy'... I feel better after buying stuffs.

Thank you Ish and Althea for Swensens' treat yesterday before band :)

Need to wake up super early tomorrow but I HAVE TO GO SPRING CLEAN.

The First.

2012-01-17T18:44:00.000+08:00

And no I'm not talking about SHINee's Japan album. ;_;
Every time I pass by Etude House those SHINee merchandise are tempting me so much.
But I resist.

But I really want an Onew badge... :(
Sophia just showed off her JongHyun badge to me last week :(

Sigh. SAVE MONEY

I've just had my first customer for my baking business today. :)
Aylwin ordered some personalized cupcakes and here they are!
And since he likes strawberry I did something for him too.

I'll be updating the baking web soon. :)
Tomorrow's first day of work!
Await.

FWAH

2012-01-16T21:30:00.005+08:00

*spazzes and dies*

HELLO PEOPLE.
READ THAT.

2012
2012 SHINEE CALENDAR.

HELLO!
HELLO HELLO HELLO.

RIPS OPEN AND DIES AGAIN

FLIPS THE CALENDAR AND DIES YET AGAIN.
COS I THOUGHT THE AUTOGRAPHS WERE REAL THEN ITS NOT. BUT ITS OKAY.

ONEW SPAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

OMG.

Thanks to my brother who, unexpectedly gave me a belated present just today.
I was so surprised; it was wrapped and I immediately asked if it was SHINee stuff.

IT'S TOO WASTED TO LET IT ROT IN MY ROOM I SHOULD BRING THIS AROUND AND IF ANYONE ASKS ME WHAT DATE IT IS I TAKE OUT THE WHOLE CALENDAR AND SLOWLY FLIP TO THIS MONTH.

FYEAH I AM KING OF THE WORLD

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHA

You guys know I'm joking right.

Enough fangirl stuff.
Ahem.

ONEW

Yesterday and today were full of shopping.
Supposed to buy only office wear but I ended up distracted and bought lots of other clothing and spent a bomb.

And my dad's back from Middle East! Bought LOADS of nuts and dates, cos I told him I wanted nuts, and cos the Middle East is famous for dates.

A bit too much...

Kay I'm going to spring clean my room.

Fangirl.

2012-01-14T03:07:00.002+08:00

It's been awhile since I've felt like this.

Hi my friends. Recognise Onew, leader of SHINee, who loves chicken.

:) my favourite song now.

And finally...

2012-01-13T21:30:00.003+08:00

I've found an admin job, many thanks to LILIAN.

Now my dilemma would be finding appropriate office wear and dealing with the banquet job.
And my baking business!
Which I have some pending orders but I haven't got to making them.

My original plan was to find a 5 day admin job (done!) and then apply for this tuition admin which I saw on the newspaper that only needs me to work on weekends and 3 hours a day only.

But even though this banquet job is madly tiring, it's good experience. So now I can't work at this job anymore unless I am superwoman and work 7 days.
Yesterday I worked from 10 am to 11.30pm, mad with my last minute frenzy with almost no transport home I was so scared.
I missed the last public transport home even though I ran quite a distance, forcing me to run back to the hotel to catch the van. I didn't apply to go home with the transport arrangements and I (actually) couldn't get a ride home.

But uncle was nice and after some pleading he let me in.

I TELL U SMRT IS SCREWING UP VERY BADLY.

A few days around Jurong East MRT was SO FREAKING PACKED HALF THE PLATFORM WAS FULL OF PEOPLE.
That's okay cos it's peak hours, but GUESS WHAT.

The screen apparently said the next train was in 3 minutes, BUT THIS NEXT TRAIN DIDN'T ALLOW PEOPLE TO BOARD AFTER IT ARRIVED.
And you know how Jurong East platforms are stupid cos they're not very user-friendly, then the other emptier side came the same train, BUT PEOPLE AT MY SIDE OF THE PLATFORM COULDN'T PASS.

What kind of logic is this.

Then YESTERDAY, I rushed like mad to catch the last 190 home. I reached the bus stop and there's the screen that shows you the approximate time you have to wait before the next bus comes.
It showed "190 ARR".
Heaved a big sigh of relief and sat down for about 5 minutes. Handled some calls facing the road.
I turned back to check the screen, ...

190 WAS GONE.

DID IT MAGICALLY ZOOM PAST ME WITHOUT ME SEEING IT WTF?????? IS SMRT IN CHARGE OF THE KNIGHT BUS FROM HARRY POTTER?

Do you know how hard my heart was thumping; I had the choice of choosing either the last MRT or 190 and I chose 190, thus missing the MRT.
AND THEN THIS SHIT HAPPENS.

So I had no choice but to run back.

Irritating.
At first I tried to understand SMRT's situation; you know, the MRT being our only mode of train transport in Singapore for over 20 years. It is inevitable that it has to break down at some point in time right?
But I am NOT WILLING (but I have no choice) to pay such exorbitant prices for a failing transport system.
Prices of all transport systems are rising, even the price to afford one's own car, then how does Singapore expect its citizens to travel around? Walk?

I think cycling would be fine; but look at the roads.
Apparently not suitable for cycling. Why can't we follow countries that adopt bike sharing systems? So much more greener and cost efficient.
These countries are way bigger than Singapore but their people can travel around in bicycles, so why can't we?

Just complaining because it was the last straw last night for the overworked me.

BAKEBAKEBAKE

2012-01-11T01:22:00.003+08:00

Today went all out shopping with my mum for New Year stuff and of course, stuffs to kickstart my baking business.
My interest now which my mum thinks is just something that would fade away with time.

I would really like to do this well. So.

PHOON HUAT, BAKING HEAVEN. I wish I could've spent more time in there...

Bought nice CNY containers so that mum and I can start pineapple tarts :)

Couldn't resist these pretty cupcake cases. This photo doesn't do them justice.

WORK!

2012-01-09T23:19:00.005+08:00

It's only enjoyable when you're with friends even though it's tough. :)

Struck 'lottery' on first day of work; first banquet, SERVED KOREANS.
They had some traditional red bean rice cake which the people kindly offered us, and I mumbled a 'MASSIDA!' through my half full mouth and the person was quite surprised and smiled.
In return she said 'delicious' in Chinese.
WHY DIDN'T I WORK HARDER FOR KOREAN IN DECEMBER.

Of course this job is hard work, but I've learnt how to fold nice fan napkins.

And here's the long awaited online bakeshop link.
It's not fully ready, but I'd figured putting it here so that you guys (who am I talking to anyway?) can occasionally check back for goodies that you might want to try.

Take a look and please give me comments (via SMS, anything) on what you would like to buy and if this is actually viable!

Happy belated birthday to my cousin MeiQun who has finally turned 21!
So sorry I couldn't be there. But I'm sure you've had a wonderful birthday celebration :)

Plans

2012-01-08T21:16:00.004+08:00

After Edison's suggestions I've decided to set up my own 'bakery' online.
I'm still in the midst of deciding what I can offer, and how I'm going to do it, so keep an eye out for it. :)

Tomorrow I'm starting work also; a new job, but it only takes up 2-3 days a week.
In the meanwhile I'm still searching for an admin job.

Very hyped up now actually.

I just baked today.

Chocolate cookies with melted marshmallows.
Very very chewy. I like. But I have a very serious flu and sore throat now and it's IRRITATING!!!!!!!!

Oh and I met Yihang just now and he gave me these, saying that my birthday present cannot be without food. :)

Thanks cow. 8D
It's so pretty how to eat!

Nineteen years of...

2012-01-05T23:12:00.005+08:00

... Knowing very nice people who treat me well, and I feel like I don't deserve it.
... Having my life passing by in a flash, where I've lived 1/5 of my life just like that.
... Making mistakes and regretting probably for the next 4/5 of my life.

The celebration yesterday was one very enjoyable one, thanks to my classmates and *ahem* especially Edison who organized the thing.
I told him it was okay not to, but he insisted as he 'knew that I would be angry if he didn't'.

Which might be true. :)

Thank you Edison, I always 'don't tell you stuffs' but you always do stuffs for me.
I know MANY TIMES I have been an ass to you and that you don't say, and I am sorrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.
I'll organise bigbigbig event for you!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU. Once again.

Ever since the New Year I've been going out everyday; maybe it's abit extravagant, but I celebrated my birthday 3 days in a row already.

2nd Jan

We met up with JianHui cos as usual he's back from Aussie for a short while so took the chance before he goes overseas again the next day.
Went to MOF at Suntec to eat.

Anyway JianHui has developed an accent... which I silently laughed at throughout the whole thing.
It's good to know he's into Kpop too; and how we both watch Running Man. :]
And JieYing's into SHINee too and her favourite is also Onew. :D
We never fail to test jianhui on his Chinese skills every time he comes back from Aussie hahaha.

Star of the day!

Our different mains. Mine was the soft shell crab bento which I've been aiming since New Year's Eve when I ate with my parents at MOF. I had to choose between 2 dishes and so this was the one I didn't choose that day. In my opinion, the crab was good, not very oily and there was crab roe too :)

My latte. Came with an Oreo biscuit.

Here's the cake for JianHui and I. Pretty, from Crystal Jade, but unfortunately I don't like mango... D:

Four of us.

Checking out Alvin's photos.

And here's my present from them.

JAY CHOU'S NEW ALBUM.
Shit. I told them I'm going to buy soon and they bought for me first.

And I suppose this was the free gift that came with it... hahaha.

Thanks guys. :)

3 Jan

Went to Astons with my family to celebrate my birthday!
We had actually booked a Japanese buffet at Kushinbo but I decided my stomach can't take any more buffets currently after the seafood one.
My dad told me how he complained to his colleagues that I place family as second, cos I chose to eat with them a day before my birthday and 'reserving the actual day' to go out with friends.
I do wish I were kinder to my parents. Whenever I do something disrespectful (when I'm in a irritable mood I get very, well, irritable) I always regret my actions so much I feel like I'm being crushed.
Must learn to control my temper and not act like a spoilt brat ... Sigh.

My prime sirloin.

Pork chops

Ordered latte again!

Steak.

Chicken.

4 Jan!
Early morning met up with Yihang so that he could pass me my annual gift and most importantly card:)

We sort of promised to give each other a card each birthday, which I always look forward to:]

Yihang's; with a nicely drawn pig face on the envelop, as usual.

Afternoon I headed back to BP band to do some stuffs and also met up with Aylwin.

Plaza Sing afterwards to meet the class.

Carmina said she saw Janan but I didn't.:(

I have to say the MFM service at PS was WAY BETTER than the one at Causeway Point.

The CWP one just sucked; the food took more than 30 minutes to arrive and the waitress said to compensate us with cheese fries. The fries came but the cheese wasn't on it. And the person took our orders wrongly even when he retook the order.

While those at PS were much more friendlier and even though we sat there for quite long and stuff during peak hours they were still patient with us:)

One guy who helped us take photos also kept saying Happy Birthday to me hahaha.

Cheese fries.

Different mains, with the more common Fish and Chips, and others. Baked fish which I tried previously:8) Behold Lilian's awesome lobster thingy.

Lolol at Jeremy's fish.

BOO.

Mussels.

When the birthday cake came I was pretty surprised cos I really didn't expect it. Thanks Carmina.:)

Feeling happy.

Nineteen and counting. Eh there was one missing candle on the cake so I'm still 18 HEHE.

Sam, with Sophy photo-bombing.

Edison so handsome.:p

With few of my favourite people, I won't deny. BLEH

My balloon from Edison (which is from Lynn) was so big that it's like this.

Carmina. YOU!

Group photo!

SOPHY SSI. BIRTHDAY ON 1ST JAN '94.

The girls.

The guys.

Partially deflated when I got home. Was quite embarrassing when I entered the bus...

My cake with my family; raspberry!

That Breezer is from Carmina also and it's a BIG DEAL TO ME cos I haven't had my first drink.
It's still in my fridge 8D

Family! We hardly take photos together...my mum is not even smiling -_-

Aylwin's souvenir for me from his Europe trip. It's the size of my palm.

From the guys.:) when I passed by the shop and pointed out that I saw it, they tried to lie to me by saying they bought it from another place, saying what it passed Queen Elizabeth and she knighted these treats. Joke.

MY FAVOURITE GIFT COS ONLY SOPHY UNDERSTANDS ME. SHINee!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Was so obvious that I really adore SHINee now but y'all still give me other stuff. Tsktsk.

I'm just joking okay!!!! I like and appreciate all of your presents cos they are thought of, even if they are...

... Almost the same as what I have. Carmina gave this to me,

And this is what I have at home. Aiyo. :p

Thank you lilian!:) I will use these to bake for you!

I really laughed out loud when I unwrapped this, from Yihang. HAHAHAH thanks you cow. No booze! I'll be responsible 8)

I really appreciate gifts but I feel like I don't deserve them because I seldom buy gifts for people.
How I want to give them something they would like but I have absolutely no idea what they would want.
The effort put into the gift, really touches me.

Thank you all. :) So much.

TODAY.
Morning went to collect my passport, finally, after 1 year of living with an expired one. Afterward went around with mum and aunts and my grandma at Chinatown.
Whenever I'm at Chinatown there's this ONE BREAD SHOP that I definitely must buy bread from.
It's called "BUNNY" or something and it sells really really soft and moist bread. I love the butter one alot.
If you're ever at Chinatown it's a must try. It's beside Bossini.

Went to Mag's house for some XBOX Kinects.
Damn fun.

Ish and Janan dancing.

I found this scene pretty cute, where the both of them were commenting on the chips sizes while I was silently observing them from the side. HAHAHAHAHA.

Days of fun are over.
Tomorrow I'm going for job interview.

2012

2012-01-01T19:26:00.001+08:00

New Year's Day and I am in a foul mood, probably just a spoilt child throwing a tantrum.
Maybe a day of rest has brought me much boredom and it has turned into restlessness.
Hate life.

Last post of 2011

2011.
A Levels, SYF,
A very awesome class which I am so fortunate to have, despite having a few quarrels and conflicts over the 2 years.
My CCA which, I am very grateful for each and every one of them.

And as usual, it was a year filled with ups and downs, and I won't deem any year to be a 'bad' year. Anything disastrous that happened to us can't beat those living in poverty so I hate it when people feel that 'this was a bad year...' when all that happened was just... #firstworldpains .

Let's see...
The highlights of this year,

Getting Gold with Honours for SYF.
Yes I support the fact that results don't mean anything, but that feeling right there, when they announced it, all that scolding we've been through was totally worth it. I know how it feels to give so much but to gain nothing, or to receive little recognition. Thus it was really an event that left me happy dazed moments in the following days after SYF.

Class bonding.
I know I have been emphasizing this like nobody's business throughout this year.
But then again, I really love my class, even though sometimes they piss me off...

...And the 'not-so-good'.
A Levels
A month after A levels and I feel like I've forgotten everything.
I don't know if I could've done better, but receiving the results next year is really something to dread.

Hey actually that's all.
Mostly my time was spent on academics so I didn't have much of a life.

I'll miss being a student.
After only 2 weeks of work, real life is so much more tougher and boring than school.
I can't imagine myself repeating the same job for the rest of my life.
And now I'll have to find a new job for next year.

On the 28th we had a class christmas party at DeCotta's, again.
This time it felt like there wasn't enough time, and everything passed by so quickly. :(
Games this year; very 'entertaining' ahem. Separated into 2 teams and we competed against one another.

Anyway I have to explain, I was wearing Orientation tee cos I wanted to play the games with ease. I DID NOT WEAR THAT TO THE PARTY.

Photo credits DERRICK.

The girls :)

Lilian replacing Nandini to give me her present as she's on a cruise.

I was Edison's secret santa. My hand was placed very awkwardly.

Trolls. Beremy and Tzeboss.

LYNN AND CARMINA. Bullying me for the past 2 years. :(
Heh anyway we sort of have chemistry aye, we were the only 3 who brought these kind of masks. HEHEHEHEHEH.

Group 1!

Group 1 cheer!

Group 2 bleh.

Tandas performing "The Boys". Very very good hahahaha, given that they only practiced for a day.

CLASS!

Yep.
Today's my last day of work after 2 weeks, think I'll just miss that place a little...

So there's my 2011.

Ending off with a cousins' photo with grandma on her birthday celebration. :) HAHA JERRALDINE! :p

2012!

Food.

2011-12-29T21:30:00.004+08:00

When I go out these days I don't bring the DSLR anymore; instead I just bring along a digital cam. Even so I don't really take photos.
Think my laziness is getting more serious. Heh.

Had buffet lunch at East Coast to celebrate my grandma's birthday this week.

Food post...

This was my favourite; soft shell crab!

Mini abalone.

Honestly I'm a fan of charsiewbao (somehow bao and I has become a class joke so they shouldn't be knowing this) and then we were supposed to order only about 3 but this much came (buffet ala carte style). But it was quite good. I'm happy. :)

Cheese baked scallops!

Always my dream to go for a dimsum buffet which I have yet to experience.

While I was there Jessica and I saw this PE teacher going on a date.
Shall not expose him here. Heh.

...
Need to wait for other people to post up photos before I can blog.
Like yesterday's SD1's christmas party!
That's what laziness to take photos has brought me to...

Shall stop.
No mood to blog anyway.

RUNNING MAN HERE I COME

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart,

2011-12-25T00:53:00.001+08:00

SHINee should not be singing Last Christmas because no one in their right mind would 'give it away'.

Will be working today.
I really have an urge to sit down and write a lengthy blog post, which I can't because of work (and it's 6 more days til end of 2011!)

Merry Christmas guys. :)

Reminisce.

2011-12-23T13:25:00.001+08:00

It's already 23rd December.

I'm at Causeway Point now, waiting for the P2 peeps to finish their movie cos I hate movies while I sit in Coffee Bean thinking about life and watching SHINee videos (again).

I am really thankful to them, Janice and Cheryl, for constantly inviting me out with them throughout the year but I have never joined them for any outings ever since New Year. Thank you for not giving up on me and I really appreciate you guys for still asking me.

It was a week of,
Torture and memories.

Work has been very unpleasant for me so far, even my mum tried to encourage me by telling me to have a positive mindset, but I just feel so miserable.
So while work's going on, I found time to go out with sec school friends.

Went out with the perc girls, and a super embarrassing incident happened.
I was supposed to meet TingHui at CCK mrt so I arrived, and I thought I saw her.
I sat beside 'her' and looked at her and slapped her arm.
'TINGHUI!'
She just stared at me while I rambled on and on about how long we haven't met. I even looked at her phone screen.
Then she stuttered in Chinese;
"你是...sh.."
I had to open my mouth and say;
'我瘦(shou)了啊!' (I slimmed down is it!) and gave my usual laugh.
Then she continued;
'你是谁?' (who are you?)

Initially I thought she was joking.

Then upon closer look I REALISED SHE IS NOT TINGHUI.

Apologized and quickly called Tinghui and met up with her.
I swear she really looks like TingHui. I was talking to her for 5 minutes and didn't realize she wasn't.

Went for singing at Chevrons before having late dinner with Kumar.
Good times.

And I just met with Xiaoling this morning back at BP band (with Yongxiang).
Had a look at her tumblr.

People whom you used to be close with can seem so distant after some time...
Not that I feel distant, but maybe I really shouldn't have isolated myself that much from them the whole of this year.

The end of 2011.
I'll blog about that sometime soon.
5 more minutes before their movie ends!

Quick update

2011-12-21T23:25:00.002+08:00

on my non-existent holidays.

I started work on something related to what I love doing and as what Jong Hyun would usually say, "This is not the reality I wanted."

We'll see how it goes. :(

2011-12-17T01:41:00.001+08:00

If you can't accept change, you can't move on.

Nobody's stopping you, but it doesn't give you a reason to do this to me;

Again.

I didn't do anything wrong.

20 km

2011-12-15T20:43:00.007+08:00

Yesterday was sort of Mr Lee's last day in BP as principal, before transferring to AJC.
He is one of the most understanding and devoted principals I have met; one can really tell that he genuinely cares about the students, for there is a different level of relationship compared to other principals that exists between him and the students.
I have witnessed how he can be a friend to a student, talking jovially and asking the usual 'How are you' questions.
He also acts as a powerful mentor, encouraging students, especially during their competition period, to give their best and not to give up.
Like how he encouraged the band on for next year's SYF, by treating them to Swensens' yesterday.
Furthermore, he also interacts with students via Facebook and even responds to posts unlike many others who have an account but do not do anything with it. Tsk.
I am not able to say anything more because unfortunately I do not share that kind of 'relationship' with him, unlike Aylwin and Aylward and many others who have experienced his care and concern in a different way. Heh.

But thank you Mr Lee, for always being so kind towards us, and I'll never forget the times you encouraged us on during our 2008 SYF.
Wishing him all the best in his future endeavours. :)

Mr Lee and the band. :)

Him giving his very last talk to us.

And then of course I went back also for the band.

How long it has been since I've carried the snare... or played any decent snare parts.

My section. Aww. They are all very cute people. Makes me miss the times...

Practising.

Yong Xiang and Jordan. Fellow alumni who go back as 'often' as me, but we already go back the most 'often'...

Another photo of my percs. :) The two boys damn shy.

School activities were as usual with other CCAs going on.

NCC. I wonder if it's fun to tekan your platoon...

BP, the times when I wished I could've enjoyed myself more.
Times where we spoke so much Chinese we were scolded for not speaking English.

...What a change.

After that Reynard and I met to go for band chalet.
Upon reaching the band was watching movies, which was then followed by night cycling.
Initially I didn't book a bike, so I intended to stay in the chalet to nua.
Then there was an extra bike!
Thought about it before deciding to go on my first night cycling with them.
Cycled from NSRCC to Changi Village, to Pasir Ris and back again.
Total of over 20 km; I AM PROUD OF MYSELF.

Actually it wasn't that tiring, the WORST part about this whole thing was WAKING UP.
You could feel your muscles just falling apart and you don't even want to move.
And and and even worse, we had to cycle to return the bikes when our butts were sore and shoulders and calves aching like nobody's business.
FOLLOWED BY A 1.5 km WALK BACK TO THE CHALET. Somehow Khalid was very energetic throughout the whole thing.

Then, the EVENT OF THE DAY HAS ARRIVED.

HEY WHAT'S GOING ON!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

I really thought about this for a long time before going lor.
It's like I'm just 'one of them', being a typical Singaporean (female) and going to A&F just to ogle at guys.
The scenes in the shop were pretty funny. Reynard and I were observing other girls and their reactions towards the models when they passed by or squeezed their way through.
OKAY, I HAVE NO RIGHT TO COMMENT; I AM JUST 'ONE OF THEM'. :(

Fellow humans of the same gender, if you don't go to A&F to gawk, you are not a typical Singaporean.

Well... *_*

Wan Ping

Hui San

Sophia

And I think today's their opening day? Free polaroid with the guys. :]

Before that Reynard brought us to Antoinette where I almost died from the posh and high-class environment that I obviously cannot fit into.

His crepe.

My Good Morning tea. I preferred the first cup compared to the last for the flavour of the first was less strong.

And here ends another week of fun. :]

Biscotti

2011-12-12T18:36:00.002+08:00

Double-baked biscuits that originated from Italy.
It's double-baked by first baking the whole roll and then while it's still hot, it is cut into long oval shapes before being put back into the oven to bake again.

I baked them cos I thought they'd be okay for Christmas treats. Supposedly you add pistachio and dried cranberries to give the 'green and red' festive colour.

My opinions;
I've never eaten biscotti before so I have no idea where my baked ones stand. It's rather alright but I don't like it because I usually don't like stuffs with nuts.

I'm feeling quite down now cos I just missed a job due to my indecisiveness.
Sigh.

2011-12-08T18:23:00.001+08:00

I just made my own tote bag using an old tee I bought from Japan.
I am awesome.

In a blink of an eye,

2011-12-08T00:02:00.006+08:00

it's been a week since the end of A's!
I'm ashamed to say that I have been wasting the time away.

But I went out with the class today, supposedly to have a Japanese buffet but we went to Marche instead.

Before that Lilian and I headed down to AC's prom at Marriott to spy.
I had envisioned hiding behind pillars and whipping out the cam to snap photos of people, but alas at around 6pm the place was quite empty...
Either that or everyone was at Level 3 already and it'd be quite stupid to go up in our non-formal wear and without a ticket too...
I did see the band peeps though! All in suits so handsome :)

Us at Marche.

My Rösti, with German sausage. It's not bad at first but the taste of potato got a little too much at the end.

Vanow, Sophy and Beremy :)

Jiaying, Lilian, Celestine and crazed Zachary Quinto fan.

After that we went walking around Orchard and also stopping by Cold Stone for ice cream.

I really love talking to this bunch of people!

Feeling 'cold'.

My Berry Berry Berry Good ice cream. I was asking Carmina, "Do I have to say Berry 3 times?"

Yep, so there ends a really great night with the class.

Here's a random rainbow I saw outside my window during the A Level period. I was staring at it until it disappeared...
and on Physical Geog morning I also saw a rainbow outside school. 8)
2 rainbows within a week.

And like I said yesterday, I baked today! Butter cookies.

2011-12-06T23:19:00.002+08:00

Random post before I rot to death at home.

My dinner today, cooked by YOURS TRULY with a little help from mum.
And of course I didn't eat all that fish. Can die from overdose of cholesterol.

I shall bake tomorrow.
Biscotti? Butter cookies?
Both are first-time bakes so I need to think carefully...
Wanted to do churros but they are fried pastries not baked...

Class dinner tomorrow also!

I am in the very ultra lazy mood where I don't feel like doing anything, except laze around the house and dabble with my phone and bask under the sun (what sun.) while playing the ukelele.
Totally not what I intended (maybe I did foresee, ahem) during A's...

NEED TO FIND A JOB SOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Rant rant

2011-12-03T23:21:00.001+08:00

Today's band practice.
I totally sucked big time. Failure in life.
Disgrace to percussion.

My snare skills are the lowest of lows and my subdivision skills are as slow as a snail. Wait. Slower than algae growth.

Really need ALOT TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF PRACTICE.
The last time I actually felt this bad was SYF.

So what our band is working on is an alumni concert!
29th Jan at ACJC CPA.
The repertoire is very interesting, including Jurassic Park, Wicked, and Machu Picchu, for which I'm quite excited for MP cos I've heard HC play it 2 times. :]
And it's one of the songs in my phone that I listen to the most.

Sigh. Shall scrutinize my scores now.
Me is big disgrace.

First day of ...

2011-11-30T22:13:00.004+08:00

the start of slacking.

I had a very terrible dream last night. It was the first of its kind seriously; the kind of dream where I woke up, and started to cry. While I was crying I don't know, but I didn't feel the usual sadness. I DON'T KNOW! I can't even remember the dream ugh!!!

Morning went to IKEA with mum to shop for stuffs, before going back to BP Band to take a look at things.
Honestly things are going really well and I don't really know what can the alumni do for them... seeing that Wai Yee's batch is the last batch that I know.

- - - - feels out of place - - - -

I'm trying to commit full time to this SYF though. Don't know if they actually need my help.
I'm going back next Monday. Anybody?

On Physics paper 1 day was also band's tune-in. So some of us headed down before and after to take a look.
And of course, to take photos with our awesome fabulous jacket that could've never been produced without the great Olivia. 8)

Photo credits Oli too!

Was trying to point to my 'PERCUSSION' letters cos it's the best section, duh.

J2s with Mr Alvin! Been so long since we saw him...

With Oli!

With Ish! Nyeh, awesome percs 8)

W/ Janan and Ish!

The lot!

While the band was playing Jap Graf. Hahahaha look at Leonard at the drumset.
Okay I don't have the rights to laugh at him cos I suck. :(

PERCS! HEH.

Yep.
And I was trying to sleep at 8pm today cos I am really tired, but I couldn't so I ended up packing my room. It's like, there's just so much stuff it's impossible to finish packing. -_-

2011-11-29T21:05:00.001+08:00

It's the end, but I feel little satisfaction.
I don't feel happy; infact I feel very lousy.

I appreciate it but I'd rather think and decide for myself.
Why do you not do it to others but to me?

I am very tired.

Do you smell that?

2011-11-29T01:05:00.001+08:00

It's...

LIBERATION.

It is near, my friends! Tomorrow shall be the end of this arduous journey (yet the start of an even tougher one) and we shall make merry and waste 3 months of our lives doing the things that we had previously put on hold.

I can foresee no matter what results I get, I'll still end up in tears anyway so...
-_-

It truly is satisfying to see the stacks of papers cleared away day after day. I am excited, and also worried for my future that I haven't planned. :E
My friends are applying for internships, trying for scholarships and whatnots and I'm still clueless about everything.

Need to get this started. :(

On a happpppier note I went back to band today! Tune-in.
Half our batch was there so we took quite a few photos, which I shall wait for oli to post.

Can't wait.
:]

Life achievement.

2011-11-28T00:44:00.001+08:00

Without resurrection, I must emphasize.

Can't wait for As to end!!!!

Disbelief.

2011-11-25T13:59:00.003+08:00

It's kind of weird to clear out my stuff...
There's a part of me that's REAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLY scared to throw out the stuff (you know why) and also I want to keep some of it so that 10 years down the road when I open the dusty box full of hand written notes and failed tests, at least it'll be nostalgic.

There's SO MANY stuff that I haven't touched since last year.
And then I saw the piece of paper that we were supposed to hand in for our subject combination, and ticked were the subjects PCMG.
On another piece of paper I even wrote "No regrets".

Life is full of ironies and regrets...
Speaking of ironies my life is full of them. Carmina and Lynn would understand it well.

It's still quite hard to believe that the two years have ended...
How to move on? How to lead a totally new life that I must get used to again?
I won't be sitting in a classroom anymore; won't be looking at the tandas gang doing their weird antics, listening to the guys' whisperings during GP, looking at Carmina sleep, talking nonsense with Lynn, disturbing Nandini and the rest...
I won't be rushing off for band (OH WAIT I STILL GET TO HAHAHA), those late nights, being scolded and demoralized, no more.

How to take life on from here?

And then there are the what ifs... which I really don't want to think about.
The new people...

Sigh...

Oh and, I've seen a recent performance of BP band.
It's not the same anymore.
But Persis Overture was the song they played, and it is one of my current favourite band songs; so it's quite, sad to see the band you were once in, to be a totally new different one.
NO MATTER. I think I'm going back to help for next year's SYF.

And yes, my last written paper has ended.
Spot spot spot.

I shall start work for the MCQs tonight. :(
Waiting for phone to update. SO LONG!

2011-11-25T01:42:00.001+08:00

Don't know if I'll die from exhaustion tomorrow cos it will be the first time in a week I have to wake up early. For geography.

I daresay this week my procrastination skills have been at its best; SERIOUSLY. I had a week to prepare for this paper and somehow I feel that I've done more today than like, the first 5 days of the week.

So while I laughed at those mugging hard for Monday/Tuesday exams, now it's their chance to laugh at me.

:(
Let's just really really hope very hard that the paper will be good to me.
On a happier note it's the last written paper.

Mental note to self:
DO NOT WASTE THIS WEEKEND.
Mcqs are still worth a great deal of marks.
:[

2011-11-22T17:21:00.001+08:00

Hello hello.
This is one of the times where after studying you just don't feel like continuing anymore.
So I'm here. Taking a break.

Feeling excited for alumni concert next January, while listening to past MUSE songs and others :)

Mum isn't very happy with me joining band again, and she says it's a waste of time...
Sigh.

But I am interested to join another concert which happens in Feb...

And also, AC band is going Chicago next year.
SHIT.
The thing is, they get to see real DCI marching bands.
DRUMLINE.
NOUUUUUUUUUUUU.

:[
Many problems to consider if I were to join them...

Can't wait for next Tuesday to come...

Sigh...

///
Just talked to Yihang; wa it's been freaking long since we last talked.
Good to know I'm not the only one hesitating to give my notes away (unforeseen circumstances ahem) while others burn them immediately...
Good chat! 8)

2011-11-20T20:48:00.001+08:00

If I join any more concerts for next year, will my mum murder me...?
:[

Best yet hehehehehh.

Now begins the life of a wastrel.

2011-11-19T15:19:00.001+08:00

Oh my I've been eating/sleeping/nua-ing around the house for the past 2 days with minimal progress on geog.

I AM REALLY ACTING LIKE As ARE OVER.

But this life is so... relaxing. :[

I remember how I used to reach home at 3pm during secondary school and I could nap all the way until 7, but now even if I take naps they are merely 30 minutes and now 4 hours become my daily sleeping time.

It's hard to start again once I've stopped. ;_;
Someone push me forward...

2011-11-17T16:30:00.001+08:00

... And it's the end of Geography (physical)!

*pops champagne*

Was an unexpected paper since my brain that was saturated with cyclone, floods and droughts case studies become wasted overland flow when NONE of either Atmo or Hydro essay questions were any of those, mainly being more on concepts.

WA. My 4 cyclone 3 droughts 3 basin management GONE. I was so sure at least one was coming out...

Reached home after a class lunch / Nov babies birthday celebration since 3 and I've been slacking away on YouTube like it's the end of A's.
Oh and we saw Ms Too at Fusion!

My next paper is next Friday, but it doesn't give me a reason to procrastinate...

Or not?
:E

I guess having my combi is quite lucky since I have no clashing papers.
On the way home I was just thinking if life after A's is as such... It's really quite boring and meaningless.

Which makes me wanna review my 'bucket list for the holidays'...

Aye. Shall go pack abit now!

Halfway there...

2011-11-15T01:36:00.001+08:00

It's the second week; and I've just completed Physics p2 yesterday, which is the most dreaded paper (right after physical geog)

Honestly Physics just don't make sense to me; some laws cannot be explained with common sense but needs quite a bit of thinking. Coupled with the fact that my physics lessons this year have purely been self-learning, it was really like a tussle with my inner demons before the paper.
I really honestly expected the paper to be so tough I couldn't even attempt a single question.
But it was better than I expected.
I guess it truly was a wrong decision to have gone with the flow and to choose physics in the first place.

In any case, we are halfway there! Along the way I do feel like giving up sometimes, but encouragement never fails to push one on.

Next big(gest) hurdle; Physical Geog!!

2011-11-13T01:27:00.001+08:00

2011-11-12T20:40:00.001+08:00

Why am I so bad to some people?
I'm such a lousy friend sometimes.

I don't deserve you all.
:(

你好吗

2011-11-03T20:08:00.001+08:00

OMG MUST POST EVEN AT THIS CRUCIAL POINT OF TIME

JAY CHOU NEW SONG
I WANT TO CRYYYYYYYYY WOAHHHWOAHHHHH

My only dissatisfaction with this song is that even he used auto tune :[

BUT IT'S OKAY HE'S STILL GREAT.

K back to studying.

2011-10-30T16:23:00.001+08:00

JAY CHOU NEW ALBUM OUT ON 11th NOV ON MATHS PAPER 2 DAY AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

2011-10-29T22:10:00.001+08:00

Very very bad flu.
The kind where your nose doesn't stop flowing and there are periods when you just sneeze non stop.

Ugh I thought since I slept early yesterday (7pm) I'd recover.

Nooooo...
Feeling so terrible and tired.

2011-10-26T14:16:00.001+08:00

Why can't we kill off repressive regime leaders through violence, free the people first and deal with the aftereffects later instead of letting them live their lives forever in lies and poverty?

2011-10-22T00:56:00.001+08:00

AAAAGH I should really throw my phone away cos it's the only distraction I have at home (apart from food, and I don't watch TV nor use the comp)
Like I always tell myself to drop dead on the bed immediately so I can wake up early but I always end up watching YouTube until quite late into the early mornings.
LIKE NAO IM BLOGGING INSTEAD OF GOING TO SLEEP.

WUUUHHHHHHHHHH
Anyway I regret holing up in the classroom during baccalaureate with the class for almost the whole time cos I missed out on a lot with the other peeps.
:[
Can never get that time back already...

Oh well.
SLEEP!!!!!!!

2011-10-20T22:30:00.001+08:00

Doing what I am doing now suddenly reminds me of you.

But that was so long ago.

2011-10-19T23:01:00.001+08:00

Feeling quite high now; must be because of the chocolates I just ate.
SUGAR RUSH.

Before you start to go 'tsktsk no wonder you are fat' , the chocolates I bought was meant for the brownies toppings that I made for the class. But somehow I think the recipe was wrong and my melted chocolate didn't turn out to be runny enough for piping.

SO SOMEONE HAS TO FINISH THOSE CHOCZZZZXX.

YEAHYEAH.

And I thought the conversation we had during GP was quite funny.
Lynn was telling decotta the few 'sensitive words that you should not say in front of huiyi', of which includes space, size, and fats.

Then decotta went on to say something like,
"what if next time you are on a flight and the air stewardess upgrades you to business class and you ask, what's the difference? And she goes, oh madam there are more SPACE and the seats are BIGGER' something like that.

Hahhaha maybe typing it out isn't funny enough.
And Edison couldn't stop flashing his 'abs'.

WOOOOOOOOAAAHHH CHOCOLATES!!!

2011-10-17T02:07:00.001+08:00

:(
Sometimes I regret not learning the piano because there's so many pieces that I can't play because I havent learnt the technical part of it.
:(
Go check out All Of Me - Jon Schmidt at YouTube!

Waaa even 8 year old kid can play.

Sigh...

Bird Attack!

A very pretty bird flew into my house just.

It was kind of injured, and my dad picked it up to look at it.
I wonder if it was fluffy.

Anyway we let it go cos my mum isn't exactly an animal lover... and we have no means to take care of it. It could still fly though. :(

After we let it fly out.

SIAN WHY MY CAMERA FOCUS ON THE LEAF.
I suck.

Pretty pretty! It didn't move much when my dad went near it.

Been thinking too much about the class ever since Baccalaureate.
At this rate I can't study well...

In a brave attempt I shall try AJ's Chem Prelim.
May I survive after doing it.

Best 2 years of my life.

2011-10-13T21:44:00.008+08:00

This was our first class photo.

Taken just this week. :)

An experience I will never, ever forget, and will treasure for the rest of my life.

Thank you so much SD1.
We weren't very close at the beginning, obviously, and I didn't really bond with most people cos I was busy with band and all.
I don't really talk to most of them either... And most of the times were just awkward moments. Hi-bye moments.

I can say that, 2011 was the year we started to really bond(after DeCotta's Christmas party and class chalet)

Initially, I shamelessly kept 'integrating' with the others, doing all sorts of weird stuff.
And then somehow, through a myriad of activities, I realized that some people were totally different from what I thought they were.

For instance.

Derrick is actually a very easy to get along with person. And also he likes KPOP so it was easy to talk to him. He also teaches me Chemistry!

Jeremy is also another nice guy. Very pro in Chem and doesn't hesitate to answer my stupid questions regarding academics. And he plays the piano!

Samuel!! You could say that he's the one guy I talk to the least in the class(maybe cos he's always not around in school) but through the last few days we had more interaction. :)

SHUZHEN. I really thought she was quite dao in the first year, but through this year I realized she's quite a 'dumb blonde' :p it's a joke la, but still, I think she's quite cute and funny.

VANOW. I also thought she was very dao! Or just, not a sociable person cos I remember the first few weeks she had H1N1 and we only saw her quite late. Then she came through as a very crazy person. Crazy about KPOP and Taeyeon.

If your name is not here means my impression of you hasn't changed much, not that you're insignificant. (don't be upset Edison.)

And Ryan Cheah, if you ever get to see this, even though I usually say / or you heard that I dislike you/hate you, I guess I never really did (even if I did it was for a short period of time), and I know you're a nice guy lah. Sorry for any misunderstandings!

Actually on the whole, I really got to know all of them better, talking to them and such.

I am actually a very socially awkward person.
Most of the time I'd prefer listening to others talk rather than joining in the conversation.

Even though there are still some mini awkward moments here and there now, but I am really happy our class changed so much. Even Sam and Tzeboss makes the effort to come to school when we implored them to. :)

And the guys, who have put in SO MUCH EFFORT into the gifts for the girls, thank YOU ALL.
Imagine a guy, (and most of the guys from our class are from guys school who don't really care about writing messages and stuff) actually writing messages for ALL 14 girls in our class.
Writing a personal note to anyone is already no mean feat, but the fact that they're guys and managed to impress us (me, for the matter) is really really really awesome.
They forked out time during this crucial period of studies to do this for the girls.
And a very professional photoshoot done by our guys for the girls with very loving messages.
Thank you all so much.

And not forgetting today's events, which actually started yesterday when Mr Sum informed me of the BFF award.
Which made me so nervous all the way until the next day.
Thank you class for nominating me, even though I wasn't the only one who made a difference to the class. I mean, if only 1 person tries, and the rest didn't bother, there wouldn't be any end result right?
All of us really gave what we had that contributed so much to the class.

Afterwards was the video and photo montages by Derrick and Lynn, which was the breaking point cos I started to cry(bawl would be a more appropriate word)
All the memories just came flowing back, and looking at those times which we can never experience again, it was really just so devastating.

Came the talk that Mr Tay gave for us.

Followed by the presentation of gifts from the guys to us. Where I started to cry again cos the messages were so personal.

And then...
CLASS OUTING.

TO LYNN'S HOUSE.
Walked practically a million miles akin to walking half of China under the hot sweltering sun where we almost died.
Even Ryan Cheah made the comment, 'everyone was so hot that no one bothered to tweet during that period.'

Had 2 movies. Pizza. Popcorn.
Board games.
And then the girls presented the guys their gifts.
Followed by our very last(as in school) class photo taking.

Sigh. Words can never express what we truly feel.
Even if I have nothing to talk to any
of you guys about, I appreciate all of you.

Thank you all. I really love you guys, regardless if you call me fat, crazy or anything else.

In the hall

JiaYing, Celestine, Nandini and Amelia!

Sophy with DeCotta!

The brownies I baked for the class.

Alas, Edison decided to be a copycat and did the same thing, by giving the girls brownies.

PREMIX SOMEMORE.

But it's okay, cos Vanow said mine was nicer.

AND HELLO, MINE IS PERSONALIZED WITH NAME AND TOPPINGS.

TWOSDONE'2011.
SARANG HEYO!

Nervous. Excited.

2011-10-13T00:18:00.001+08:00

Mixture of feelings.
I dread school to end, but at the same time I look forward to baccalaureate so
much my heart thumps whenever I think of tomorrow, which is just a mere 6 hours away.

I'm excited because the class has many stuffs planned.
I'm nervous because there's something going on tomorrow.
I'm scared because As are coming.

There will be no more of 'hiding behind the uniform'.

It's just so overwhelming to have everything going on.

So I shall do maths til I get very sleepy.
Till then, my mind will be constantly filled with the class.

2011-10-11T18:44:00.001+08:00

Contradictory words.

2011-10-10T01:44:00.001+08:00

Drop dead.

'if today was the day you die would you have lived the day it was?'

Bullshit. A levels make living your life to the fullest impossible.

Alumni concert next January!!!
Details and stuff not out but I'm excited. :]

Sigh.
Last week of school.
I'm totally anticipating baccalaureate but not the end of my school life.
I'm hoping for the end of As but I don't want them to come.
I want to get this over and done with,

But I'm not ready.

2011-10-08T17:46:00.001+08:00

After hearing Second Suite Mvt IV for the umpteenth time;
This is the first time I heard the horn counter melody come out at the last part.
:D
Guess my ears are not inclined to picking out counter melodies...
But it's really nice.

Discover music everyday. 8)
SS has replaced other MUSE 2 songs to be my current favorite.:E

2011-10-05T23:15:00.001+08:00

Why do people tweet vulgarities like they're some common words?
Maybe in the occasional burst of anger, yes.
But not in every single minute rant of your life.

Your life can't be worse compared to others less fortunate than you.

2011-10-01T10:55:00.001+08:00

Had Honours Night yesterday,
I have to admit it's really quite a waste of time, seeing that I'm very behind studies and time was spent just stoning in the hall.

But the comforting point was that Guest Of Honour is an AC band alumni!
Not only that, he was in...

P.E.R.C.U.S.S.I.O.N.

YOU KNOW!
Freak it's like shaking the hands that have once touched the drums that I touched for the past 2 years.
And he asked me what instrument I played.

Out of all our band members he only asked some of us, and amazingly he did manage to pick out Althea, Ish and me.

It's the connection. 8)

Inspiration. 38 days left.

'The pain of regret is far worse than the pain of pushing yourself.'

2011-09-27T21:42:00.001+08:00

Sometimes I get frustrated, cos it's the people I love the most (or I think I do, cos I think I'm changing my mind) that always let me down.

2011-09-27T19:25:00.001+08:00

What is wrong with me?

2011-09-25T21:42:00.002+08:00

:D
The real thing.

LSMVLV Electone
... and this is what I've tried so far.
Excited excited.

But it's distracting me from studies. :/

2011-09-25T17:21:00.001+08:00

I CAN PLAY THE WHOLE love story meets viva la vida on the electone.
SHIT. as in it's playable, cello, violin piano and all!!!!
EXCITED.

2011-09-24T20:31:00.001+08:00

I guess I wasted today, being kind of slackish and productivity being at it's lowest.
I learnt Forget You and Price Tag today on the uke though. :/
And watched this new sitcom 'New Girl' which is pretty funny.
Zooey Deschanel's very pretty :3

Madness.

2011-09-22T23:25:00.001+08:00

Geog notes piling up like a mini Mt Faber.
SERIOUSLY HOW TO STUDY?!
HOW DID PREVIOUS BATCHES MANAGE TO MUG THIS WHOLE PILE?!
I'm sure there are still more notes lurking around somewhere...

:(

Add a finger for comparison...

2011-09-19T18:13:00.001+08:00

Sumomo gave us this card with some goodies as children's day present.
He hasn't forgotten us, and NEITHER HAVE WE FORGOTTEN HIM!
I KNOW YOU ARE THERE SUMOMO. I HAVE YOUR PHONE NUMBER.

Going for a nap, before waking up for Shining Inheritance and then mug.

2011-09-17T11:23:00.001+08:00

Was packing my stuff and I found...

MY LONG LOST ELECTONE G5 CERT.
WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
good day good day.

2011-09-16T20:16:00.001+08:00

.... Er I don't know what to say.
That is, after receiving prelims results.

... I guess it could be better. I'm quite relieved with the fact that I'm improving, as compared to horrendous results from J1 to averagely okay; but loads more could be done.

50 plus days.

Saviour!

2011-09-13T01:49:00.001+08:00

Blogger app finally created.
Gotta get used to new interface!

2011-09-12T22:24:00.005+08:00

Hi Edison.
Good to know that my blog is your homepage.
And that you proclaim to be my #1 faithful reader.

Totally does not equal stalking.

Why my stalker so hamsum.

HAHAHA joking see I dedicate one blog post to you, my no.1 reader.
And probably the only one hor.
Whai I so kind.

Last school holiday of my life.

2011-09-11T22:58:00.003+08:00

Woke up at 11. Made my breakfast and lazed around. Tried to study. Went to nap at 1. Woke up at 3. Freaking took a million hours to read a few pages of geog. Tuition. Stopped by pasar malam on the way home(to buy..GUESS WHAT!~). Reached home. Drowned my sorrows on the electone. Now I'm here packing my bag.

I've never slept earlier than 2 this week and it gets progressively later through the week, where I slept at 4 yesterday.
Please let me be able to wake up tomorrow.

This is it...

2011-09-10T00:52:00.003+08:00

YEAHYEAHYEAH let's hope Diablo III isn't just a cashmaking cow for Blizzard and it'll live up to its 2 prequels.
It is rumored that there's a secret pony level!!
Please let the official version be out after As.

Two more months.

2011-09-09T22:52:00.003+08:00

I've just put up a schedule on my wall to countdown the remaining days to As, which sadly is about 2 months away.:(
Anyway, notice I have 3 class photos on my wall. Nyehehehh. And a very tattered periodic table which I can refer to by just turning my body. Lazy much.
Sigh.

All over again.

2011-09-09T00:30:00.002+08:00

:] I have a feeling the auntie knows me already.
... I still remember the face of the previous pasar malam muahchee uncle.

I just finished an adaptation of Alice in Wonderland yesterday; it's quite an interesting, storyline, where everyone in Wonderland loves Alice.
And each of the major character in the series (total of 12) represent an hour of time each. Which made sense, as you know, the rabbit used to say, 'There's not enough time.'
I guess it's about living in denial and self-love, because the world was 'created' as what she wanted - where everybody loves her as compared to reality where her older, much more beautiful and sweet natured sister was preferred - and she's in that world because she cannot or does not want to recall the reality - that her sister died.

Feeling quite... upset.
Few things been going through my mind; besides the usual academic problems,
Some other stuffs are bothering me.

It's like deja vu; the almost exact same thing is happening to me, but this time it's a different person.
It's always like this.
Slowly losing them, and this time I won't make any noise, because I don't have any right to.
... And seeing what happened the previous time...

I'll just keep it to myself.

Mundane days.

2011-09-07T19:29:00.004+08:00

I made my own lunch today(sort of)
Seaweed salad :)

... Life's been pretty boring. The only thing that I look forward to every day is the Korean drama at 7pm.

// some people tweet too much and it's annoying the shit out of me.
At least my space here won't be violated.8)

/// there's a pasar malam under my blocks. I'm happy, but I don't dare to go too many times for fear the auntie will recognise me after days.
Oh muahchee. You and I are not meant to be.

2011-09-05T14:45:00.002+08:00

Went for Mus'Art concert yesterday with the band peeps, saw Zhihao again :)
Was quite enjoyable actually, I preferred the first half as the songs were more exciting and stuff. One part of a song sounded like Vesuvius. Yet another sounded like Spartacus. And Third Symphony Third Mvt. Lol.

Very nicely themed concert; the first half they wore black to signify 'demons', while the second half they wore white.

Was doing the math prelim paper again at home and realized I could do questions that I couldn't do in the exam hall.
*stabs self*

2011-09-03T19:01:00.004+08:00

Am at hari raya celebrations now.:) damn awesome food and frickin delicious brownies which unfortunately were bought so I can't learn how to make them.
Here's the array of cakes and snacks. Too good. Many made by my aunt and her family herself!

Cakes, kueh lapis, etc

The really good brownies.

Fried vegetables which taste really good!

Gonna go for the main stuff now, ketupat, curry and stuff, dinner!
Fatty day.

2011-09-03T15:17:00.001+08:00

Am disappointed with the brownies I just made.
They don't taste like my dream brownies.
As in, it's nice but I WANT A BETTY CROCKER TASTE.
sigh.

And for now I shall go back to trying to understand regression lines.
;_;

2011-09-03T11:06:00.001+08:00

After physics paper where we went Vivo :)

Baked Oreo cheesecake that the class had during Dolphins.

Truffles

The class when we were out for Save the dolphins.

:):):):):):):):):)

2011-09-03T10:55:00.005+08:00

WAHAHAHA I HAVE MASTERED THE ART OF POSTING PHOTOS FROM MY IPHONE THERE'S NO NEED FOR A PC ANYMORE HAHAHA!
All that's left to do is to figure out the resizing part.
I'm a genius!

My class is awesome TTM.

2011-09-01T23:30:00.004+08:00

Honestly!
Teachers Day and we brought along guitars and ukeleles to entertain ourselves.
Class ate my fabulous truffles.
Subway cookie FTW.
Played soccer after school under the crazily hot sun.
Went to eat at Aston's.

Sigh. I just feel so lucky to be in SD1; I really cannot imagine being in any other class. ;)
We actually talk about how our lives would be like 10 years down the road, and how we are still going to keep in contact and stuff.
I'll do personal dedications some time later here to each and every of them(well maybe not all) after As or something.

Feel like making brownies now.
As in, the best brownies I've ever had (not even pos.h's) was when I made them with pre-mixed Betty Crocker brownie mix.
But I don't want to use premixes anymore (A BAKER'S PRIDE) so I need to find a brownie recipe that surpasses that BC one ;_;

Huiyi's Brownies. APPETISING MUCH HAHAHA.

And for the first time since 2 weeks, I shall try to sleep before 2am.

2011-08-31T01:45:00.001+08:00

Ugh I wanna make chocolate truffles tomorrow but I can't find this video on YouTube that I watched quite some time ago which is unlike the usual truffle videos around.

And hey I'm sleeping late again.
I should stop sleeping late cos I'll wake up late. And waste the day.

2011-08-29T00:10:00.003+08:00

Save the dolphins!!

Today my class went to a Save The Dolphins concert.

Excerpt from The Asian Scientist...

Since they were captured from the Solomon Islands for RWS, 2 out of the 27 dolphins have already died from bacterial infections due to undesirable living conditions in their holding areas.

Many concerned individuals have petitioned to let the remaining dolphins go. Ric O’Barry, the original dolphin trainer of the movie ‘Flipper’ and star of the movie, ‘The Cove’, along with Dr. Jane Goodall, NGO’s, university groups, and members of the general public have written in to RWS asking for the dolphins’ release.

The cumulative effort has resulted in over 100,000 signatures on change.org and 677,000 signatures on avaaz.org pleading for the dolphins’ freedom.

A Singapore-based group, the Animal Concerns, Research and Education Society (ACRES), has been actively campaigning for the release of these cetaceans.

To raise awareness of the plight of these dolphins, on 28 August 2011, ACRES will be holding a free concert at Hong Lim Park’s Speakers’ Corner in Singapore. The concert will start at 4:30 PM and will be featuring some of Singapore’s well-known local artistes, such as Michaela Therese, Jack & Rai, Alicia Pan, Sixx, Zal Empty, and D’Fusion, who are volunteering their vocals in support for the dolphins.

“The dolphin’s smile is nature’s greatest deception, they always look happy,” says Ric O’Barry in the movie, ‘The Cove’. “You may think they’re happy to entertain us, but don’t be deceived.”

Yep, so if you guys ever get asked to sign a petition to free dolphins, please do!
Honestly I'm sure there are so much more things you can do at theme parks rather than watch staged shows of marine animals entertaining you right!
Give them their freedom!!

2011-08-27T10:59:00.002+08:00

"Maybe I've never known you at all."

Class outing was pretty good yesterday.
Went to Vivo and celebrated tzeboss' birthday, and we sat at the roof Terrace from 6 all the way to 9+, just talking and having fun.
Now we all have this serviette with our classmates' first impressions of us.:)
Got to watch fireworks at 9.
Ah.. If only Carmina and I brought our ukuleles.
But it was raining in the morning so I didn't.

Good times.

Unearthly hours.

2011-08-24T02:12:00.003+08:00

The past few days were full of feeling guilt and remorse.
It doesn't have to take a death of someone you know, much less, or feared, a loved one, to pull you into reality and realize how you've been screwing your own life up.

I was so scared.
That was going to be my fate, sealed and turned into ashes, as much as we all try not to think about our ending.
I cried so hard.

It took me this incident to realize that my parents are children themselves too; no one ever taught them how to raise kids, nor have they any prior experience. I found out how much of a bitch I am to my family, and how I am going to regret my actions.
How everyone has their own story and you can never understand another.

But if we are to eventually die, how would we experience regret?
I don't know, but if I had a choice maybe I would've preferred not to be born at all.
I don't want to experience the pain of losing a loved one.

It's been a flurry of emotions.
I'm exhausted.

2011-08-23T12:33:00.003+08:00

Listening to muse 1 recordings keeps me awake because I'm too busy revelling in its horrors.
But honestly some parts of Variations were enjoyable.

....ahhhhghghgh the music was screaming all the way.

2011-08-22T02:56:00.000+08:00

I don't even know myself; do I even want to?

2011-08-21T02:31:00.000+08:00

It's suffocating.

To pretend...
:(

2011-08-18T22:43:00.000+08:00

Listening to our MUSE recordings.*sniff*
This is why.

2011-08-17T22:32:00.001+08:00

The very first time I am dreading the papers so much I hope something would happen to me before I reach school tomorrow.
Feel like dying.

All the best for GP.

2011-08-14T21:46:00.002+08:00

Lol I've only ever had 2 timed essays of which both I did last year.
The shortest time I've ever completed an essay assignment was in 4 hours.

... Longest 4 days.

And I'm only banking on MM lol.
"The medium is the message."

... Stop laughing at my quotes, Carmina.

Always eat before a paper.

2011-08-12T22:49:00.005+08:00

So your stomach won't go growling in the middle of the paper and you won't get embarassed til the point you can't concentrate on your work.

And I take back my words.
Chem is demoralizing me. Ugh.

// it's 2:00 and I can't sleep.
I was supposed to be reading GP and to fall asleep by reading GP, but by finding info on the net has led me to an hour half's worth of undesirable distractions.
:(

On a side note, I have to:
- get a tan (or at least a little darker) before I turn invisible during the day,
- get a haircut before I turn into a ghost at night.

I bet I can pull off a Emma Watson.
*thinks of primary school days*
... Ok maybe not.

Proud of myself for not using the comp for at least 2 months (since MUSE), but I kind of look forward to having a new comp/laptop.
...THAT HAS THE CAPACITY TO RUN DIABLO III ONCE IT'S OUT.
Blizzard bastards who released it so early but zilch progress is going on.

I was just thinking about how every time I sign up on a new online platform, fb tweeder etc, my blog's always the one place that I eventually turn to to write about my most inner thoughts.(... Maybe not that 'inner' cos I end up keeping everything inside me anyway.)
Just saying.
Sleepless night.

Pre-prelim rant.

2011-08-12T00:08:00.002+08:00

We all know that feeling well, of not being sufficiently prepared, fear of doing badly, and shit like that.
And as it always happens, people around you who fluster about the most are always the ones scoring well.

We know ourselves best; I know I haven't prepared much. Honestly all I ever did was Chemistry. If I was focusing on other subjects and I suddenly thought of chem, I would abandon all matters and proceed to it. And with that, I've practically done nothing much.
I won't say I didn't study. (like some others) I did, and if I did badly for chem I would be disappointed.

I'm scared. Compared to O level prelims, I was so much more hardworking then. Or is A levels different in a way I can't study blindly anymore?(yeah i do realize.)

The past whole week was just sitting my ass on the chair and study.
Study study study. Get annoyed by family members who can't be any more discerning.

And ironically I've neglected them.

2011-08-11T02:42:00.000+08:00

"What if..."

But they don't exist.

LIFE CRISIS

2011-08-08T16:10:00.001+08:00

OMG I AM GROWING RASHES ON MY FACE! SINCE YESTERDAY

ON THE FACE. OMG A GIRL'S WORST NIGHTMARE OMG PLEASE LET IT SUBSIDE SOON PLS OMG!!

// went to see a doctor and he claimed causes of rashes are usually unknown and mine's either heat rash or allergy.
I just hope it isn't permanent. :(
And this is why I don't like eating meds. I'm sleeping 2 hours earlier than my usual timing. Its only 11:40...study time gone...

2011-08-07T16:30:00.000+08:00

Cravings for freshly baked sugar or cheese buns, like those at Chinatown/Waterloo which is so good.:(

Going for a 30 minute nap now.
Very demoralized by maths in which I lack in aptitude, and even attitude is not helping because this time there's no one like Aylwin to guide me through every question.

Hopefully I'll wake up, and not get sleepy-bored just by reading about rocks.

Bye.

National Day celebrations?
Yes of course, I would have to thank the nation for its wonderful education system.

For the past 5 days

2011-08-05T22:30:00.001+08:00

I've been faithfully eating a green apple and a lemon (lemon in the form of freshly made juice) a day.
SO WHY AM I GETTING SICK AS COMPARED TO EATING LESS FRUITS?!?

... Overdose of vitamins.
Or citric acid.

Ugh.
