Caught up with my jc classmates today. As usual there were only a few of us. It's always nice meeting old friends. Complain about uni life, update each other on new phases in our lives and reminiscing the good old times back in jc...
stephy, grace, corina and me..
latiff simply refuse to take pictures
Went to watch The Family Stone with Lock. I love Sarah Jessica Parker! She's damn good acting as the uptight, rigid, perfect girlfriend that Dermot Mulroney brings home to show his parents during christmas time. Despite all the efforts she made to impress her in-laws, the results were chaotic and unforgettable. She seeks help from her sister Claire Danes which ultimately leads to even more complications. To sum it up, it's a a heartwarming christmas comedy that i would rate 4 outa 5 stars!
It's amazing how sometimes certain things can happened and changed ur bitterness into complete sweetness... It may not be what i think it is.. but i just want to make it a sweet memory.. maybe i'm just a person who thinks too much.. maybe it's just the season of the year... it reminds me of high school sweetness.. watever it is.. Even if it's just a passing moment.. it'll be a moment that's worth reminiscing..
Heeheehee.. I've managed to get a chalet afterall. I asked Huimin's mum to book for me. Her mom is a teacher. Y din i think of it earlier? Rooftop party is an expensive affair.. thus i'm sticking to just a simple celebration at a chalet! =) =) =) Thank you so much huimin.. Muacks! I'm off to meet 477 for huimin's belated bday celebration.. Woot~
I've decided to put the music playing afterall. Realised that my blog is pretty plain without the music video. Hmmm.. been at home the whole day.. just searching for a place for my 21st party. I know my birthday is next yr but i'm not being kiasu here. The aloha chalets at loyang are fully booked already. =( Thanks to my super 'efficient' cousin. Now i cant even book as a member of public cos we members of the public are only allowed to book it 2 months b4 the date u want. wth.. by then it would have been fully booked by the civil servants who have priority to book it 3 months b4 the date. Ronson is so nice.. called me to say that his gf's mom might be able to help. But his gf's birthday is also 2 days after mine.. =( Ron, thanks anyway..
Hmmm.. found places for rooftop party, poolside party.. sounds pretty cool huh?
Sometimes i wish i can be more firm in my stand. When the issue concerns people you care about you just lose ur stand because you are afraid of losing that someone? At least that is true for me. I hate the feeling of helplessness.
Went to watch The Descent with Andre and went home alone after that cos that poor bloke gotta rush back to sch to settle his sch stuff. It feels good to shop alone, to just remain silent and watch the rest of the crowd hurried past as u continued to walk slowly at ur own pace. I guess it has been a very long time since i walk slowly by myself.
I dread going to work tmr. Dread putting on fake smiles. Dread spending countless times persuading customers to sign cards. Dread putting up with hup sup and tiko customers. Dread spending my weekends at work! I'm helpless and i hate it!
You know the dreadful feeling you get just before you are about to fall sick.. the feeling of having sand in your throat when u swallow.. dry throat.. knowing that you are about to get sore throat n flu.. and no matter how many gallons of water u drink nv seem to do much help? That's how i felt the night before and now i'm down with the damn flu n sore throat. My body gave up on me.. maybe it is it's way of calling out help from the unhealthy lifestyle that i've been leading..
Sigh... i hate the feeling of not being able to taste and smell.. everything tasted so bland when your nose is blocked. i cant go out cos i feel sleepy all the time after taking the pill that causes drowsiness..
Had been talking to Jackson n Lock on the msn rather frequently these days. It's heartwarming to still be able to keep in contact with them even after what happened to me n their friend.. well.. that was so long ago already..
I'm thankful for the efforts that you guys made to come n visit me at the hospital even though you silly gooses went to the wrong hospital on the day i was discharged. This was quite some time back but i still wanna express my gratitude. =)

Went for dinner with Deane and Steph last night at Fish n Co. Deane's bf, Yong Xing joined us. We went to watch Pride n Prejudice after dinner. A typical romantic love story that is super dragy. The male lead took 1 hr to profess his love for the girl and 2 hours to get together and finally kissed. The girls in the show are like desperados, squealling at the sight of young men. Throughout the whole show there are dozens of scenes of the girl just staring into space and thinking.. *yawns* i guess classics are not for me..

we continued taking pics despite the staff tellin us 'no photography' LOL
The bus journey to parkway is so jerky that i felt sick and nauseous after i reached the place. Damn bus! I hereby declare that the SBS bus service sucks. Some bus drivers are extremely irritating and inconsiderate.
There was once i was trying on bus 165 trying to catch the bus 132 in front. When the 2 buses stopped at the bus lane, i was desperately trying to catch the bus in front. But the stupid bus driver simply refused to open the door cos his bus was a bit out of the lane. Then i tried to explain to that driver my situation and requested him to open the front door. He retorted, " i'm not supposed to open the door when the bus is not in the bus lane. You wait for the next bus la."
I swear he did that on PURPOSE! STUPID uncle! I had to see my 132 moving off the bus lane while the stupid bus driver slowing wheeled in n open the front door. I gave him a nasty stare before i alighted. Stupid Idiot! I waited for 20 mins for the next bus when i could have caught that bus if not for that damn driver.
On a light hearted note, i went out with Deane, Wan Qi n Steph last night. Went to Sakae again twice in the week. After that we decided to join Wan Qi's friend Rui Feng for drinking. Too bad The Balcony was packed. We went to Acid Bar instead.
Went out with my mom today. Shopping! I love shopping with my mom cos since we hardly get a chance to shop together, mom is usually quite generous when we go shopping. Hee.. Bought a belt, Espirit handbag and accessories! All courtesy of my mom... Had bbq stingray, sambal kang kong and fried you tiao for dinner. Yummy though super full after that. Mom's the best!
No work again today.. Sigh.. No work means no money. How to surivive? My job schedule is so irregular that when my friends are free during the weekends i had to work.. Wendy says she prefers slacking at home this hols to working since the hols are so short. I think i'll be bored to death if i have no work. Thus working is a good way of killing boredom plus i get money. Perhaps working is my excuse to prevent myself from being in solitary. Ironically, before i started work, everyone seems to be busy. Then when i start working, everyone starts asking me out.. -_-
It seems to me that many of my friends are attached during this X'mas season. For some i know that they truly like that somebody that they are with, whereas some who got attached aint even sure of wad they want/feel. I do wonder sometimes if they got attached cos they want a companion during this hols to prevent loneliness.. In any case, i do hope that they will be responsible for their partner's feelings..
Speaking of responsibilities, who ever bothers about that word nowadays? Infidelity, flings and casual relationships are so common nowadays that makes the word responsibilty so irrelevant. Sometimes, even the most decent or responsible person that u always thought he/she is may just prove to be a disappointment. Even if no infidelity is involve what makes people think that the relationship will last? Or is everlasting love simply an outdated, hackneyed idea? Call me an idealist but these are my values.
Had no work today. One of the rare days that i can slack at home listening to songs n basically just do nothing.. Went to meet the girls in the evening.. We've been so busy with our lives that we hardly can find a day when all of us can meet up. Then again, nothing beats meeting up with old friends, updating each other's lives, gossiping and reminiscing the good old days in school. Being able to do the silliest things togther never fails to warm my heart..
