Barbie after 51 surgeries. You want?

2011-10-30T12:15:00.001+08:00

Just glanced through Facebook news feeds and saw this post saying there was an American lady who did 51 surgeries to become a real life Barbie. I wonder what she was thinking when she made her decision. Was it fame? Beauty? Having to go through all that pain and one day, needing to leave this world without any of those things following you... Is it really worth it?

Dad was telling me the other day. He said, "When you go to the market and buy chicken, you always want the fattest, juiciest one. But when it comes to humans, we want the thinnest, slimmest one." I so totally agree! I guess we get caught up with how we look and forget that what's inside is most important. Remember to love yourself and be happy!

But my resolution next year is to drop 10kg. HAHAHA! Wish me luck!

Public Peeing

2011-10-05T08:41:00.001+08:00

Yesterday when we were walking towards my bus stand, an old man took off his pants and peed on the floor before another person could stop him. We were still wondering what he was doing... Luckily, I turned away when I realized what he was doing. If not later NIGHTMARE! Some bus supervisor shouted at him after the 'milk was spilled'. Anyways, this happened like super near the public toilet. Wonder what the old man was thinking... That was the weirdest thing that happened yesterday. Haha.

Invisibility VS. popularity.

2011-09-07T23:42:00.003+08:00

feeling stressed over end-of-course assessment that is going to due on 12th Sept 2011. i guess i need to find my motivation back again. missing those days where there was nothing much to worry about. *sigh*

fitness first

2011-08-09T22:57:00.003+08:00

HAPPY NATIONAL DAY SINGAPORE!

Guess what i did on this public holiday?

Never mind. Let me just tell you. HAHA!

Went to the gym this morning for BODYJAM / SH'BAM PINK PARTY (11am - 12.30pm) and stayed on for BODYCOMBAT THE ULTIMATE (1pm - 2.30pm).

I'm feeling the aches right now. Miss M (once a month) came today too. WOW. ACHY ACHY BREAKY BREAKY.

And then i came home and did some online postings (school work). WHAT A PH.

Feeling the blues cos there's work tomorrow. NO HOLIDAY FOR ME. *sigh* And i've got night classes tomorrow. BOOHOO!

This weekend.

2011-06-12T08:45:00.001+08:00

I watched the Breaking Fawn Part 1 trailer yesterday. AWESOME LOOKING. I read the book and I was intrigued and frightened all at te same time. Imagine sitting on the chair and screaming, "Bella, DON'T!". Well, the you have it. I'm a fan but if you ask me which side I'm on, definitely Team Edward. Lol! I think I have a thing for vamps.

So anyway, the show airs in November. LIKE WHAT THE HELL?!! Why do they want to show the trailer so quickly? Make me heart itchy nia. Good marketing technique. Haha. That's provided the movie sells itself of course. Having high hopes for the movie and I hope for my sake I don't get disappointed. Kind of difficult to top the book.

So last Friday after work, I met up with Xiu at Bedok Mrt and then we went to meet Serling and Alvin at Somerset 313. Ate dinner at Tomato soup (I think?) and then we made our way to the movie theatre. Left kevin's ticket at the counter. What show were we watching? KUNG-FU PANDA 2!!! AWESOME! I was hoping for 3D but seems like they difn't have them...

After movie, I went to meet up with GC, Jen and ZF. WL came later after her rendezvous. Hahaha! Chatted for a bit and finally, we were super sleepy so we left to get a cab at around 3am... What a night.

Late night resulted in me missing my gym... Guilty...

Well, at least now I'm going for a swim with my bffs! Get ready fAt4! We're gonna have a splash!

But before that, let's hope I reach there in piece. LOL!

Teamwork

2011-06-09T00:49:00.003+08:00

I believe I know where the problem lies and I know the solution to the problem. TEAMWORK. However, teamwork requires initiative. Sigh. Going BATAM! Yay! Gonna confirm everything on Friday so I am really EXCITED! Finally, a place out of Singapore! Woopidoo!

fAt4! When we going Bangkok together?!?

Sigh

2011-06-07T08:53:00.001+08:00

I used to be high even without coffee or alcohol. Now I take coffee almost every day. Gosh. Where's my energy? Seeping out of me every single day as I slog my life away. One day, all my laughter will be gone and that WILL NOT DO. Gotta find my passion and joy again. Where should I look? Do I have to? Will it come look for me instead? Tired.

2011-05-28T16:43:00.001+08:00

EXAMS ARE OVER!

2011-05-14T22:30:00.000+08:00

Exams are coming.

Shag.

2011-03-27T20:16:00.001+08:00

I am so TIRED.

Infusion

2011-02-25T10:56:00.001+08:00

I realize my blog has turned I to a dead city. Need to infuse some life into it.

LIFE.

Ok.

I am miss random!

2011-02-24T22:52:00.000+08:00

They keep roaming about - my thoughts. I am miss random. The reason is because I have to say things quickly for I'll forget them in a second. Make it 5 seconds. Don't want to sound like I'm exaggerating.

Cars have faces. Bongs told me this. Cherry QQ has a girly face. As though it's fluttering it's eyelashes and smiling.

No strings attached was sweet and romantic. Ashton, you rock! Haha! Carrots bouquet. WHAT A GREAT IDEA. WHY DIDN'T ANYONE THINK ABOUT THAT BEFORE? I love happy endings!

Been sick lately. Bronchitis seems serious but it's actually cough. And flu. And sore throat. I'm alright now though. Don't have to worry, if you were. Not like I'm saying you'll get worry or something but yea. So. Haha!

Had dinner with Dan, Kel, Hui Ni and Joanna yesterday evening. As usual, FUN! We need to give ourselves a group name. Can't think of any right now but, yea, we should really find some funny name for our group. Anyways, we sort of planned our escape to Taiwan together. YAY! Xiu, maybe cannot watch fireworks and count down with you liao. Might not be in Singapore but we'll see.

School seems so much tougher now. Hopefully I can time manage this semester well enough.

Dad bought me a hard disk yesterday. <3s

I'm bored and tired. Going to bed soon. GOODNIGHT!

2011-02-03T23:08:00.002+08:00

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

Did everyone have an enjoyable day with your relatives? LOL. We weren't supposed to celebrate CNY but we did receive lots of angbaos... Tradition says or rather, the older generation says that we are able to take angbaos but they cannot give them. Hmmm... Anyways, one day is gone. Just like that.

Tomorrow, the Queks are gonna take on 少林 at Downtown East Cathay Cinema. WOOT! Although i've watched it, i think my Dad would like it so i introduced it to him and it became a family event. HAHA! Deadlines deadlines deadlines... ALL CRAMPED TOGETHER. I better get down to it. Toodles!

Slapping in the bus

2011-02-02T15:39:00.001+08:00

There was this crazy dad in the bus with his son. Poor guy got slapped by his dad cos he put his hand on his arm. Throughout my whole journey back home, the dad was slapping his hand whenever he touched him and saying "Shut up and take your hand away." or something to that effect. Anyways, full story I do not know since I was back facing them the whole way. Your thoughts?

Hospital Visit

2011-01-12T08:46:00.001+08:00

Visited Jaslin yesterday. Spoke to her husband and he told us that she's recovering really fast which is a miracle on it's own but being able to survive is the biggest miracle so far. Quoting his words, "Her stars are shining." She really lucky and I think all those good deeds she did throughout the years must have somewhat been recognized.

All will be well!

Thoughtful Monday

2011-01-10T22:05:00.001+08:00

I had this urge to just throw my umbrella away and walk in the rain. All the way back home. On second thought, I couldn't allow my bag to get wet. There was my iPhone inside. Important things that could not get wet.

As we grow older, we tend to have less fun. The moment we want to do something fun, we get weighed down by baggages like responsibility, being a role model and things like that.

I asked myself, "How long ago was it since I walked in the rain with rainwater drenching me? How long ago was it when I didn't have to care what people thought of me and just did what I wanted?" The answer to both questions is SUPER LONG TIME!!!

People who really know me, I think you guys got used to my craziness. However, it seems like not everyone can accept this part of me. I think especially when we start working and are being characterized as WORKING ADULTS, the whole image thing just changes. Before you know it, we are all acting in a certain way to show that we are responsible and mature but all the FUN seems to slip through our fingers. I miss the FUN.

My colleague was asking whether I've been to fort park (I think if I remember correctly). She said that the place was really beautiful. I told her ever since secondary school, I haven't been to these kind of places. It's sad, but true.

So, when people ask me what my 2011 resolution is, I tell them this:

I JUST WANNA HAVE FUN!

Easy it may seem but the easiest thing can be the most complicated and difficult thing to do.

What is your 2011 resolution?

Today, my colleague came out of ICU and is currently staying in one of the normal wards at SGH. I pray for her recovery and hope that God will protect her and help her through this difficult time. The doctor tells the nurses to tie her hands because she always tear the tubes out (this is what I heard).

The doctor can try to mend a broken body but only something spiritual and holy can mend the mind and soul. Hope that all will be well for her and her family.

2011-01-08T00:06:00.003+08:00

the clothes detergent smells REALLY NICE.

came home from love & other drugs.

his eyes are SO BLUE. anne hathaway almost ALWAYS surprise me with her superb acting. 演什么像什么。 LOVE HER! when rach told me this was an M18 movie, i didn't believe her. M18?!?!?! YOU SURE? like R21 man! but it was meaningful!

Tuesday BBQ

2011-01-04T23:58:00.001+08:00

Today was GREAT. I took 3.5hrs off from work which meant that I left the office supposedly at 3pm but in the end, work made me leave at 3.30pm instead. I don't wanna talk about work so after I left the office, it was all relax and happy!

Silly XY came over to borrow a space in my refrigerator but in the end, she only needed it for 5 minutes. Plans change so... Anyways, left with the crazy Queks (consists of mama quek, leona, Bongs and Aro). 大舅 came to fetch us there. Thanks 大舅！We reached Downtown East at around 730pm? A little while later, Lynn and Chups arrived. YAY!!! Small talk and hellos erupted... After that... DINNER!!! There were prawns, buffalo wings, pork fillet, satay, bee hoon and curry. YUM YUM!

The three of us talked, everyone joked, we laughed and ate. After all the eating, we went into the room and watched the balance of 爱 and then the other shows on channel 8. In between commercials we would talk and make fun of each other. LOL! I think the show was more interesting when we were watching it together. *smiles* After the 9pm show, we had BIEBER TAP TAP CHALLENGE!!!

Like play and battle together fun ah! Haha! Going home was even MORE FUN!!! Uncle Poon sent us home via his pick-up. Or should I say lorry/truck? Anyways, we sat at the back and it was so COOL! Lynn said that it was her first time. I think she was a little frightened but don't know whether it was for Leona or herself? Haha! She was brave though. Sat all the way to the nearest bus stop to her house.

I think we need to arrange one chalet! Seriously missing those days in Poly when all of you stole my gingko nuts while I was sleeping. *reminiscing*

But before that, singing session at my house to be confirmed. You all free on Sunday (9.1.11)? Muahaha! I don't know about you but I seriously can't wait! 

2011-01-03T00:14:00.002+08:00

ALARM'S FINALLY WORKING!!!

although there were lots of problems with the phone, at least Apple kept their word that the alarm would work by the 3rd Jan and it did. What a year start for Apple.

2011-01-02T23:00:00.002+08:00

steamboat for the second time. LOVE IT STILL. lol!

iphone4 alarm having problems but i read in a website that this problem will be resolved tomorrow. dare i take the risk of waking up with the alarm?

2011

2011-01-01T02:58:00.001+08:00

So it's 2011. I'm on the MRT coming back from Marina Bay Sands. Had a great time with Xiuli. Tired but eventful. Did something really stupid right after the countdown. Took a video of the fireworks show earlier on but Facebook cocked up!!! Too much traffic online I think. Long story short, MY VIDEO LOST!!! Not even in my cameraroll. Like sad only.

Anyways, just reached Tampines. Since there's no buses, gotta wait for a cab. Oh well.

In a cab already. Haha! Fast paced sia. Damn tired. Reached home. Bathed. SHIOK!

anyways...

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!! A new year means there's sure to be surprises but just make sure all of you enjoy yourselves alright! Loves.

Story Of My Life After Exams

2010-11-27T22:30:00.001+08:00

Have you ever felt like you've got a lot of things you wanna do during the exam period, but you tell yourself you need to study and can only do them after the exams? But when your exams are over, you feel that those things aren't really what you want to do anymore? Story of my life.

I totally had so many OTHER things on my mind during the exam period but now I'm free, I just wanna laze around and do nothing. *sigh*

Obsessed

2010-11-06T04:34:00.001+08:00

I'm totally obsessed with The Vampire Diaries right now. I'm still at Season 1 but i have this feeling that i want to watch it all and yet, I don't want it to ever end. You know? Obsessed I tell you. And just right smack before my exams. How convenient. Dang it. Seriously, shouldn't have started watching like now.

But i couldn't control myself. They're SO HANDSOME and she's SO PRETTY. I think I'm crazy over the whole vamp thing-a-majing. It's like reading twilight novels all over again except this time, the vamps are major badasses. Hope I won't crave for more once I'm done with season 1 but they don't make shows like that anymore. It's as though the producers COMPEL us to WANT to watch more. *sigh*

However, I did promise myself that I would stop watching and start studying after season 1. A promise is a promise. I'll try not compromise myself but it seems like a challenge. Hmm...

2010-10-29T23:09:00.002+08:00

i was really disappointed.
i thought there would be appreciation,
but i guess somethings are too good to be true.
once again, high expectations/hopes or let's just take away the high and say expectations/hopes will lead to high chances of disappointment.

i'll get over it.

Beauty And It's Perks

2010-10-08T12:19:00.001+08:00

A long time ago, I realized that pretty ladies and handsome men have more benefits than us mere mortals. It's unfair yes , but the painful truth. Concepts like beauty in the eyes of the beholder seem to be consolation for us to feel better.

This realization came back to me again today. I saw how people reacted to a pretty girl and it got me thinking. No wonder people spend so much money on make-up and cosmetics. Taking pills just to slim down.

Basically, humans are just problematic. They make things difficult for themselves and then they try to find a solution but another problem surfaces. I guess that's how humans work. Haha.

Like serious only ah. Anyways, I think Everyone's beautiful be it you're round, thin, short or tall. As long as your heart is kind and good, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! Love yourself!

The Cycle That Never Ends

2010-10-03T03:02:00.001+08:00

Dying but not really dying - The Time Traveller's Wife. This movie came out long ago but I only got to watch it this morning. A really touching story. I felt that there wasn't really any beginning or end. Like a circle, the cycle never ends.

Seeing someone die over and over again but you can do nothing about it. Seeing people when they were younger or older. Having to break into peoples' houses just so he could clothe himself. Being chased by those who thought he was up to no good. Seeing how and knowing when he was going to die.

This got me thinking. The young self still time travels and at the ending of the story, he time travelled again with his 39 year old self. His daughter, Alba and wife, Claire were able to see and touch him again even though he already died. Doesn't this sort of mean that he is an immortal? Time travel allows him to live on. It's like he's moving backwards.

Hmm... Interesting show this. Those whom have not watched it, GO CATCH IT!

As for me, I'm going to bed. Toodle-loo!

2010-09-20T21:51:00.001+08:00

someone: what is your name?
me: Gina.
someone: How do you spell?
me: g-i-n-a
someone: ok. T-i-n-e
me: g. g-i..
someone: ok. gina.
me: erm. yes.

2010-09-15T23:55:00.001+08:00

i'm finally able to breathe...

for a while...

next week i'll have to start on projects again. SERIOUSLY.

can't wait for saturday though!

2010-08-22T14:11:00.000+08:00

*sigh*

2010-08-20T12:11:00.002+08:00

Woke up at 10am this morning.

Mission: Finish up project

Brushed my teeth and prepared myself mentally for the day ahead. Came out of the toilet and GUESS WHO I SAW?!?! BONGS.

she persuaded me to go downstairs with her to find a torchlight by asking me to get breakfast downstairs. so i went with her. IN THE END... SHE DIDN'T EVEN BUY A FREAKING TORCHLIGHT. I asked her what she wanted to eat and she said she was not hungry.

...

in the end we went NTUC to buy some stuff (yogurt, cup noodles). then to A1 chicken store and got one spring chicken to share. then to the hardware store. then home. reached home 111am. Aro cooked instant noodles for me. ate till 12pm.

now i'm still blogging. HAI... Ok la. back to the real work.

2010-08-20T00:34:00.001+08:00

waiting for my iphone4.

i have loads of work but i don't seem to be in the mood for them.

it's FRIDAY ALREADY! omg.

2010-08-16T20:58:00.002+08:00

XIU!

I'm sick AGAIN. Got the FLOO. *sigh* red nose, chapped skin, sleepy eyes, irritating cough. name it and i've got it all. ok. got to go back to my project. NO TIME TO LOSE. *cough*

2010-08-09T18:10:00.003+08:00

I'm getting better! (HAPPY)
I have to work tomorrow. (WTH.)

Seriously, I didn't even get to enjoy my public holiday properly. DANG IT. Well, at least I had loads of rest so I AM THANKFUL.

Got school tomorrow. Hmm... Anyway, I wanna thank those who told me to drink more water and get more rest. LOVE YALL!

2010-08-04T20:57:00.005+08:00

tired after a long day at work. long? cos i had school yesterday. slept less. tired. long day. yah.

i'm having cut papayas and grapes now. the papaya's not that sweet and there's a bitter aftertaste. the grapes have a sweet but sour quality in them. what a coinkidink. oh well. i can't have rainbows everyday anyway.

can someone please ask me out for a movie? seriously. i'm so cooped up with work and studies now and it's only for the 2nd week? goodness.

I love sara bareilles's King Of Anything!

She sings so well...

2010-07-26T20:08:00.003+08:00

the future looks like a really LONG and DARK tunnel.
i wonder when i'd finally see the light.
at least i know there will be light.
it's just a matter of when.
uncertain times.
i wonder if i've made the right decisions.
*sigh* guess i'll just have to wait and see.

2010-07-19T21:16:00.002+08:00

OMG OMG OMG!!!

I'm starting school next week! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Excited and yet scared.
Oh well, i've chosen my path so now i'll just have to walk it.

2010-07-08T19:55:00.001+08:00

DUH.

2010-07-05T22:33:00.002+08:00

are they really males? goodness. tried checking but not 100% sure though. i know one of them is surely a male but the other seems kind of feminine to me. oh well. let's just see what happens.

back pains today. near the butt. ouch. don't really know what i did though. *sigh* old liao.

watching ECLIPSE with sissy 2 and sissy 4 tomorrow. CAN'T WAIT!

spent A LOT of money this month. Birthdays, spectacles, contacts, dinners, presents... I guess it's all worth it. all good all good. just need to keep telling myself that.

I NEED TO SAVE MONEY!

Song i'm hearing now:

2010-07-04T12:05:00.003+08:00

WE'VE GOT 2 NEW ADDITIONS TO THE FAMILY!!!

The butt is Bong's and mine - GUS GUS. (Although I'm the one looking after and paying for. LOL.)
The other one on top of mine is Evangeline's - TUB TUB but i really think it should be called NOM NOM. BECAUSE IT KEEPS ON NOM-ING THE FOOD AWAY.
NOM-NOM-NOM-NOM-NOM...

So anyway, THEY ARE SO CUTE! It's amazing. I got up early to feed them. GOT UP EARLY. SERIOUS. I'm so gonna get a dog next. WAHAHA!

2010-07-01T19:59:00.000+08:00

I just felt like taking a photo of my novels. A LOT RIGHT?!?! I can like open a small library by the time i'm 50? HOHO!

2010-06-28T20:49:00.004+08:00

when i smell durians i go AHHHHHHHHHHH!!! and not in a good way. i think it's the season. IT'S EVERYWHERE!!!

anyways... i love CHERRIES!!!

I went to NTUC and bought 2 boxes of cherries today. I think it was worth it since it only cost me $6.99 for 2 boxes. REALLY SWEET! YUMMY! Too bad it's normally so expensive. Maybe next time i'll go to a cherry plantation. HAHA! When I leave, NO MORE LEFT. lol!

2010-06-09T22:35:00.000+08:00

Why is it so difficult to get along with some people? I only want to be friends with everyone. Is that so difficult a wish? Happiness seems to be the key priority in my life but sometimes, people can really disappoint me. Seriously. Nevermind. I don't want to think about all these non-consequential things.

Went to the doctor with Bongs today. She's having fever, running nose, sore throat and a throbbing head. Dr. Kong was good. I think out of all the doctors that i've been to, he's considered one of the best. He took the time to explain some vital points so that we understood how our body reacts to a fever and so on. As for me, i've been having back aches. Finally seen the doctor for it since i kept complaining of the pain. He gave me some medicine and told me that if i wanted to exercise, it should be constant and not sudden so that my muscles will not be shocked at the sudden need to work hard. No exercise for me while i'm on medication. Hoho!

I know what i want for my birthday already. iphone4! Seriously! Any sponsors? Haha!

Mid-week. I kind of feel happy cos it's in the middle already... but at the same time, it seems the weekends are just not here yet. Oh well, wait for me weekend! I'm coming!

2010-06-03T20:43:00.011+08:00

Went to watch PRINCE OF PERSIA - THE SANDS OF TIME with Rachael yesterday (2.6.10).

Prince Dastan: You really enjoy telling me what to do, don’t you?
Tamina: Only because you're so good at following orders.
Prince Dastan: Don’t press your luck.

Tamina: Such a noble prince leaping to assist the fallen beauty.
Prince Dastan: Who said you are a beauty?
Tamina: There must be a reason why you can't take your eyes off me.
Prince Dastan: [stutters] You're... I...

Tamina: Dastan, where’s the Dagger?
Prince Dastan: You’re welcome to search me for it. You’ll have to be very thorough.

Tamina: Impossible.
Prince Dastan: Difficult, but not impossible.

2010-05-31T20:46:00.002+08:00

i was about to get out of the train when i saw a mother (age to be acound 60 to 70) and daughter (age to be around late 20s to mid 30s) having a heated conversation. details i'm not sure but my observation told me that the daughter was pretty pissed with her mother. i heard her say,"你每次就是在浪费我的时间." and then her mother replied something to her but i couldn't hear. both faces looked to be pretty unhappy. once the doors opened, the daughter rushed out and didn't even inform her mother of her whereabouts. she simply just dashed off. her mother was still talking to her and at the same time looking from left to right when she couldn't find her.

all i want to say to the daughter is this:

i hope you do not regret your actions today because what you did was simply wrong. even if your mother made you angry, she is still your mother. filial piety is every daughter's or son's responsibility so try as you may, you can never run away from it since her blood runs through your veins. think of the time when she had to carry you in her womb and all the sufferings she had to go through just to give birth to you.

i was really sad when i saw the mother's face. *sigh*

SHOUT-OUT TO ALL THE MOMS OUT THERE:

辛苦了!!!

2010-05-30T23:14:00.000+08:00

hey. THAT'S ME. lol.

2010-05-29T21:18:00.002+08:00

It really amazes me how two dots and a v can make something so KAWAII!

gLEE <3

2010-05-07T21:16:00.002+08:00

have to share this with everyone. qualities needed in a man YO! i mean, in the hand. LOL.

2010-05-05T22:47:00.001+08:00

i'm in love.

with Robert Downey Jr.!!!

they say men are like wine. the older the wine, the finer the taste. THAT'S HIM ALRIGHT! and yes, i love old charismatic men. HAHAHA!

having watched IRON MAN 2, i fell in love with him ALL OVER AGAIN. like SERIOUSLY. Suave, maddeningly arrogant, funny, serious... I could go on for hours!

all those people who haven't watched the movie yet, GO CATCH IT! Scarlett Johansson's super cool and SEXY with all the ninja-like kung-fu moves. *ENVIOUS* IRON MAN 2 makes me wonder if there's an IRON MAN 3. I DON'T WANT IT TO END!

technology in the movie seems to have no boundaries AT ALL. COOL like crazy please! OH OH OH! and in IRON MAN 2, the movie spoke of Tony Stark's father Howard Stark and about the hopes and love for Tony that he never told him only until Tony watched a video that was recorded by Howard just for him.

just searched and THERE IS AN IRON MAN 3!!! It's called THE AVENGERS and should be ready by 2012. don't know if we'll still be living to see it by then since everyone says doomsday's in that year. oh well.

some photos for me to drool over:

Change of hair colour makes him look younger don't you think?

I think these 2 pictures (above) were taken from IRON MAN 1.

Look at those PUPPY EYES! awwww...

one word - COOL!

i feel so lost.

just finished watching 宫心计. I LOVE THE DRAMA but i felt that the ending although good made me have a lot of unanswered questions. Like how did XIAN YANG come to be there? and why did he not remember 三好? and how did he come to be at that place? what happened to LI YI? seriously. got the urge to write an email to TVB. HAHAHA!

so, i was saying i felt lost. IT'S BECAUSE OF THIS DRAMA LOR! suddenly don't know what to do because the show ended. Guess i'll have to turn back to my books. I REALLY LOVE 佘诗曼! HAHA!

life has been the same. just that i've been doing OT (FOC) since my colleague was on mc. 2 days only if you're wondering. HAHA! changes and more changes coming up so i'll have to stay alert. oh well. if they think that their plans are right and workable, then we can only try our best. and if our best they still do not appreciate, i guess all i can say is that there's nothing we can do.

i always felt that if one works hard, people will know and they will appreciate. there will surely be rewards if we work hard enough but to my disappointment, this does not seem to be the case. i remember someone once told me, "Please work smart. Work hard no use one. Must work smart. Work so hard for what? In the end still kena complain." So what should i do? Do i still work hard? Yes. I still believe that one day, if i work hard enough, someone will see. At the right time and place, i will be appreciated. So not only will i work hard, but smart as well.

suddenly bring me back to the drama. there's this girl and her name is 三好. 做好事，纯好心，说好话. That's her motto in life. I really want to learn from her. Make these my motto in life as well. HAHA!

2010-04-28T22:36:00.002+08:00

lynnster,

if you can see this, how are you? hope the boss and all the colleagues there are treating you well. I MISS YOU!!! take care and get in touch ok! love love.

2010-04-18T00:34:00.001+08:00

mood's swinging like the viking ship at escape.

2010-04-15T21:46:00.000+08:00

k-mood right now.

2010-04-11T03:00:00.002+08:00

will you love me if i toned myself down?

if i just spoke softer?

if i had lesser actions?

if i had an image (a good one) to uphold?

if i grew thinner?

if i didn't laugh so loudly?

if i didn't make a fool out of myself?

but that's not me.

2010-04-08T21:05:00.001+08:00

it was just SO not my day.

pathetic excuse for a thursday. sheesh.

2010-04-05T12:30:00.002+08:00

Mariah:
I shouldn't have walked away
I would've stayed if you said
We could've made everything OK
But we just
Threw the blame back and forth
We treated love like a sport
The final blow hit so low
I'm still on the ground

I couldn't have prepared myself for this fall
Shattered in pieces curled on the floor
Super natural love conquers all
'Member we used to touch the sky
And

Lightning don't strike
The same place twice
When you and I said goodbye
I felt the angels cry
True love's a gift
We let it drift
In a storm
Every night
I feel the angels cry

C'mon babe can't our love be revived
Bring it back and we gon' make it right
I'm on the edge just tryin' to survive
As the angels cry

Ne-Yo:
I thought we'd be forever and always
You were serenity
You took away the bad days
Didn't always treat you right
But it was OK
I do somethin' stupid
And you still stay with me

But you can only go for so long
Doing the one you claim to love wrong
Before too much is enough
You look up
Find your love gone
And

We were so good together
How come we could not weather
This storm and just do better
Why did we say goodbye

'Cause lightning don't strike
The same place twice
When you and I said goodbye
I felt the angels cry
True love's a gift
We let it drift
In a storm
Now every night
I feel the angels cry

Mariah & Ne-Yo:
C'mon babe can't our love be revived
Bring it back and we gon' make it right
I'm on the edge just tryin' to survive
As the angels cry

Baby I'm missin' you
Don't allow love to lose
We gotta ride it through
I'm reaching for you

Baby I'm missin' you
Don't allow love to lose
We gotta ride it through
I'm reaching for you

Lightning don't strike
The same place twice
When you and I said goodbye
I felt the angels cry
True love's a gift
But we let it slip
In a storm
Every night
I feel the angels cry

Oh babe, the angels cry

2010-03-27T10:54:00.002+08:00

Me: *laughs*
Colleague: Aren't you sad that your grandmother passed away?
Me: *thinks* (I was sad when she left us but she didn't take my laughter away with her.) but says instead, "A good thing she left since she didn't have to suffer anymore."
Colleague: *nods head*

This conversation got me thinking.

We can grieve but how long does it take to "show" that you really care about someone?
If you grieve for more than 10 years and still continue grieving, does that erase all the scoldings, naggings and unhappiness that you made the person who passed away feel for all the years that he/she was alive?
Does grieving mean that there will never be a smile on your face ever again?
Does it mean that your funny bone has been taken away from you and you can never appreciate a good joke?

Sometimes when you care deeply for someone, you will grieve for that person. Maybe for a long long time but that person has already left us and i know they will want us to go on with our lives. Be as brave as before or even braver for the coming days.

So I wanna say, If you want to cry, Cry. If you want to laugh, Laugh. If you want to shout, Shout. If you want to slap some bugger who got on your nerves, Find a pillow.

Don't wait till you no longer have a chance and then start regretting because by then, it'll be too late. Live!

2010-03-03T00:07:00.001+08:00

GOD,

If taking her away means you can lessen her pain, then go ahead and do it.

2010-02-24T21:45:00.002+08:00

papa went to see ah ma today. when he came home i asked him, "hey pa, how's ah ma?"

papa looks at me and says, "i think you all better go visit ah ma at the hospital. don't wait anymore. the doctor says she might go anytime. she's very weak."

sadness.

papa continues, "today i joked with her. ask her WA SI DI DIANG (WHO AM I in teochew)? she said in a low voice (her throat not in good condition cos of all the coughing, phlegm and so on), LEE MENG (my pa's name).Then she laid back exhausted. sad but there's nothing we can do. better go even though she cannot remember you all."

i very sad lei. when i see my ah ma, she cannot remember me but i remember all the times we spent together when i was a kido.

she would bring me out to places like the zoo, the market... i would hold her hand... talk to her. tell her that i love the texture of her skin because it was all wrinkly, smooth and soft. going to see her after work tomorrow at the hospital. hope that all will still be well even though i know that miracles only happen sometimes. don't want ah ma to suffer anymore anyway. i am just so torn between emotions. i think i've never told her i love her and i don't think i have the guts to tell her in person so i hope she can hear it in my heart. when i look at her, hope she can see it in my eyes. I LOVE YOU AH MA!!! take care please.

2010-02-24T21:31:00.002+08:00

i guess i was ashamed of myself.

i was queing for the bus 293 like everyone else. the queue got longer and longer. in between the queue line, there was an entryway where passengers could go to their various lanes using this short-cut instead of walking all the way from the front. an indian lady was not in the queue but waiting to be, just at the side of the entryway. when i saw her, the first thing that leapt to my mind was that she was going to cut queue.

the bus arrived and all the passengers were walking forward. seeing that the indian woman wanted to walk in the queue, a chinese woman allowed her to walk in front of her. i thought to myself, "i knew it. why should the chinese woman let her cut the queue?! seriously." thinking to just forget the whole matter entirely, i continued to walk but surprisingly, the indian woman did not board the bus! instead, she waited for the rest of the passengers to go up first. i don't think i saw her on the bus though. guess there was too many people and she waited for the next bus?

the thing is, i shouldn't have jumped to the conclusion that she was cutting the queue even though my eyes saw it that way. sometimes, what we think we see might not be the truth.

sorry indian lady! i misjudged your actions.

2010-02-23T23:45:00.003+08:00

I teared.

2010-01-28T21:24:00.002+08:00

xiu messaged me today.

asked me why my previous posts were so EMO. actually, to me they read quite fine lei. so just in case anything, want to tell you the the previous post also nothing much. HAHA!

just some signs that showed me i have to protect myself and stay indifferent until i can really trust someone.

don't worry about me. i'm a big girl. i'll be fine.

peace out-

2010-01-28T21:22:00.001+08:00

i guess my trust has been betrayed.

at least i tested the waters first.

it didn't hurt THAT much.

but it still hurt.

2010-01-28T00:42:00.003+08:00

YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TOOTH.
OH YEAH.

I'M THE
TOOTH FAIRY!!!

Seriously. IT WAS GOOD! I had a good laugh and i'm sure the two guys who laughed as loud enjoyed the show too! Hilarious and yet it has a whole lot of meaning to it. DREAM PEOPLE, DREAM!

Family, love and dreams! Don't you just love a show like that?!?! GO CATCH IT! NICE!

2010-01-26T21:29:00.003+08:00

it's really not what i want.
but do i know what i want?
is what i want what i need?
do i really need it?
if not then can i get what i want?
so what do i want?
sigh.

2010-01-25T21:43:00.000+08:00

i'm just so emotional.

2010-01-05T19:54:00.001+08:00

2010-01-04T12:14:00.000+08:00

BIRTHDAY .PART TWO.

2009-08-31T01:05:00.004+08:00

This was what they gave me!!! LOVE LOVE!!!

To Serling. HUAT AHHH!!! I think now Xiu will kill you since she'll be going to read this. LOL! Don't worry, I'll protect you. HOHO!

To 小粒 a.k.a. MOTHER. Quote: "So fast & we R all in the world of 22 alr..." PLEASE HOR!!! Don't put me in the same category as you PLEASE. lol. BUT! I agree with you. Simplicity is indeed a beauty.

To Kevin. Say me 美 is it? *shy* And thanks. I also hope my mum gets well soon. I am going to burn you all with my bright smile!!! HAHAHA! 一起加油!

To AAAAAAAAAlvin. HELLO!?!?! I AM NOT INCREDIBLY DIRTY OK!!! lol. Maybe a bit only hor. HAHAHA!!! I think the only people i stun are you guys lor. SERIOUSLY. I tell you i very shy 了. Don't believe. *sighs*

These were the love notes that they each gave me. AWWWW...

They also bought me a pair of LEE HWA JEWELERY earrings. Wore them straight away. THANKS DARLINGS!!!

I was late. AGAIN. HAHA! As what mR(A) says, "BIRTHDAY BIG AH???!!!" LOL. Supposed to meet them at Cityhall MRT station so because I was late and they had to be there since they reserved the place and all, I was to go to C.H.I.J.M.E.S. myself. Cannot stand myself. So SMART. LOL! I know how to go lor. SERIOUSLY. So the dinner place was called CARNIVORE. Anyone heard of it? Well, as the name portrays, LOADS OF MEAT. There's also a salad bar and the music that they play should be spanish. Felt like dancing to some of the tunes. HAHA! There was one song I was telling them made my heart beat fast cos it sounded as though something was gonna happen. Like the pace increasing until very fast. Wanna know more about the place, click HERE.

Kevin arrived some time after we started eating. He came even though he was sick. AWWW...

The restaurant have soem rules that I find interesting. There's this small round card that has a green and a red side. If we want food, we face the green side upwards so the knife-welding passadors (meat waiters) will serve us the meat and so on. If we put the red side, they will see it and not serve us any. COOL HUH?!?!

After our food, I was told to go to the toilet. EVEN THOUGH I WAS NOT URGENT. HOW OBVIOUS WAS THAT?!?! seriously. So being such a NICE person, I stepped outside and went to the toilet. When i was walking back, I saw Xiu's face and it told me to *GO AWAY, WE'RE NOT DONE.* So I walked back and forth back and forth outside like some kind of crazy person. THANKS AH! FINALLY, I was told that I could go back in. They had the whole CARNIVORE crew sing me a birthday song in SPANISH? WOW! Amazing. Thoughout my 22 years, this was the first time i heard the birthday song in a language other than English, Chinese, Malay, Tamil (I think I heard it before) and Cantonese.

After CARNIVORE, we went to this place called roof but the r was somewhat inverted. HAHA! Again, the name says it all. A place whereby people chill on top where the roof is. Quite nice though there's this building not yet built up properly beside it and the air-con a bit warm. HAHA! Other than that was ok. Played games and talked but mostly played games.

That was my night. Had lots of fun but all good things must come to an end right? We all had to go home and so we walked towards the MRT while Ser walked towards her bus stop.

THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH AGAIN!!! Still waiting for Xiu's photos though. LOL! I BLOG FINISH ALREADY LEI!!! slow... See how la. Maybe I lazy to put in more photos. HOHO!

LOVE YOU ALL LOTS!!
XOXOXOXO
