She's A Lady

Nov. 22nd, 2009 | 05:39 pm
mood: good good
music: Lungs Like Gallows - Senses Fail




Been a pretty nice weekend so far.
Been a pretty good week in fact, think its because the parental unit has been away since last Sunday.
Oh sweet freedom and loneliness :)

Then again, its been a pretty hectic week with individual assignments up to my throat and doing most
of the housework which includes the laundry, fish feeding, newspapers, water boiling and alot more.
Best part of it all, my older sister doesn't even help out one bit.
I applaud her.

In contrast, it actually feels quite good that I've been doing the housework.
Shows my capability of being an independent and responsible person, which my mom fails to see all the time. All in preparation for Australia next year? Maybe maybe.
She's going to be surprised. Sweet.

Friday night was spent at Rebel for a while shorter than most.
Saturday was spent at town watching Voodoo and feasting at Mos Burger.

I hope my mom lets me go to Butter this Wed.
Keeping my fingers crossed.

Okay, back to my individual assignments.
I shan't complain.

We Always Rewind The Best Part

mood: sad sad



Paint the wall your favorite shade of blue,
I hope all your dreams come true,
And i will be renew.
And i won't waste your time anymore,
Finally put a lock on our closed door,
And you will not break through.
And we'll try to put smiles on our face,
And see who is the quickest to replace,
Our lost and broken love.

MY KNEE HURTS AND I WANT TO KILL SOMEONE NOW

Nov. 3rd, 2009 | 12:35 am
mood: aggravated aggravated

I don't know how anyone can relate to this but I am here to complain and basically rant cos I'm fucking annoyed and pissed off and just purely irritated.

SOME ONLINE BUYERS ARE JUST SO FUCKING DUMB AND HAVE AN IQ OF PRACTICALLY NEGATIVE VALUE HONESTLY.

This is the comment a buyer wrote on my lj shop:

i cant believe u sold it, i said i want it immediate, payment or trades/partial.

i waited for a mail for so long form u but receive no word.
At least inform me if its sold =(

May i enquire who bought it so i can purchase it from her?
If u have not mailed the item out could u please sell it to me as i will offer a higher price! I can offer $35 dollars for it.

A very sincere buyer who was looking for this bag for a long time.

do let me know and please mail me:
xxxxxx@gmail.com =)


NOTE: I had 5 comments from her telling me "how come i DINT receive any email from U"
The horrible ahlian typing just topped the charts in my tolerance level ttm.

Anyway, I mailed her previously to tell her the item was pending in payment, but yet she claimed she didn't receive any mail.
Okay nevermind, so I proceeded to give her a "piece of my mind" and tell her something about customer ethics and privacy and that everyone is not driven by money and profit unlike her, in relation to her long comment above.

She claimed she didn't receive any mail YET AGAIN when I replied her lj comment.
She then emailed me, lamenting about how fucking upset she was that I sold it without telling her and replying her email blah blah blah.

I emailed her ONCE AGAIN, showing evidence of my sent mail to her, after which I commented on her lj to tell her to check her junk/spam folder.

SHE SAID, ONCE AGAIN SHE DIDNT RECEIVE ANY EMAIL.

5 seconds later, I got an email that said:


found the mail in the junk.
thanks



FUCKCBNBKNN!
$!@$*!@Y!@*!@RJUID*&!@$HUDQR!@UWDWR@#OT#$&UTC J#$TDGC)HR&U%C@
FUCKING NOOB PIECE OF SHIT NO FUCKING BRAINS.

And I actually thought I copied her email wrongly or my gmail account was faulty.
Are some people just stupid or just stupid? Tmai.

I don't suppose you realise how irritated I am right now, and I don't expect you to sympathise with/for me tyvm.


Bye.

Only By The Night

Oct. 28th, 2009 | 11:40 pm
mood: good good
music: Use Somebody - Kings Of Leon

I think I forgot how much I enjoyed playing my surdo.
I think I forgot how much I loved playing as a band, listening to each other's instruments, coming up with cute/stupid movements at certain riffs of songs, figuring out the parts of a song that are harder to catch up and basically just letting loose along with my surdo and bandmates.

I sure do miss that feeling and glad I got it back once again today.

We Breathe A Sigh Of Faith

Oct. 17th, 2009 | 09:05 pm
mood: contemplative contemplative
music: When Spring Comes Home - The Fire Fight

I am scared as hell for what tomorrow might bring me.
No wait, scared or frightened is really an understatement in fact.

Nevertheless, I know I will not hold back anymore, and I will speak my mind in the midst of tossing what ego I have aside.
My life is a total drama queen and I hate myself for what it has brought upon me. I never thought I would end up in this mess, yet somehow this feeling is foreign to me.
Sure I've had terrible breakups, not to mention a huge heartbreak not too long ago. However, what I am going through now seems to be something new and totally alien.

That aside, even in this messed up period of time, something good has come out of it.
I've discovered a startling yet rewarding and uplifting quality of myself.
I've got balls and courage. 100% definite.
Excuse me for the self-praise.

I made the first move in almost every situation, and even in a moment of rashness, jealousy and anger, I asked a fucking direct and inappropraite question.
Yet, I do not live in regret for what I've done.
Instead, I am proud of myself to have the courage to face the truth and put my ego aside.

I surprise myself sometimes.

I Am Weightless

Oct. 16th, 2009 | 03:59 pm
mood: blank blank
music: M+Ms - Blink 182

Old times are good times don't you agree?
I was just looking through the past Baracuda photos, and it never really occured to me the scale of how much has happened till now.
Then I I found a photo of all the surdos lined together backstage during Hopnite 08. I can still vividly remember us playing the Red Camp song and practicing our stick tricks. I faintly remember me being a total "hum chi" and not wanting to do stick tricks on stage for fear of dropping my mallets hahaha.

GOOD TIMEZ.

Gone are the days when we were young and stupid.
Anyway, hanging out with the old bunch on Monday was great. We made fun of Ris Low and took fairly retarded shots of ourselves in the city, along with the usual gossip and hang-out talk during dinner and ice-cream. Really missed how this felt :)

Class BBQ later, which I am so not looking forward to honestly speaking.
School's starting, I somehow seek comfort in the busy-ness of it all. Yes, I am a FREAK I know.
Then again, no more sleep-in days and bumming around how tragic.

Been listening to Blink 182 alot recently.
Reminiscences of the good old secondary school days.

Okay this entry is rather annoying it seems, I just keep talking about the good old days.
Moving on... I am finishing up "To Kill A Mocking Bird", yay.

Bye.

Forever Young

mood: crushed crushed
music: Summer Hair - The Academy Is

I know I don't exactly like what I've become.
Sour, sulky, bitter, sad, annoyed, irritated, distraught.

I know I'm not the kind to do things without thinking about the consequences.
Yes, I am a cautious little prick but I kinda like it.

I know what I should and shouldn't do.
I know whats right and wrong pretty distinctively yes.
I treasure this side of me because I think its pretty hard to come by in society right now.

I really don't know what came over me to have asked you such a question like that.
Jealousy? Thoughts of getting back at you? Reaffirming myself that I'm still the only one?
Maybe, probably, surely yea.
Seriously, that really topped the charts in terms of me having balls.

So yea, your answer was no shocker to me, yet I was close to tears when it hit me.
The question now is why.
I need to get over this hot and cold feeling right now because it isn't doing me any good.
Easier said than done right.
Okay, its another break from you, if thats even possible. I'll try my best to avoid.

Poor JT is having a hangover :(

Feeling This

Oct. 14th, 2009 | 12:42 am
mood: cranky cranky
music: First Date - Blink 182

The past few days have been fun, fruitful and somehow relieving.
I'm glad I got my much needed space away from everything related to you.
It feels almost rejuvenating actually.

That aside, its Butter tomorrow again, for one last time till school starts.
And, I booked tables for 30 pax at Hard Rock Cafe for my combined birthday bash with Joel.
Hopefully all will be good and everyone will turn up as planned!
Please RSVP to me ASAP, if you haven't people!

Shopping today was the best ever, so was the company :)
I found everything I desired and needed at the same time.
Now how often does that happen? Usually the wants override the needs don't it?

I sometimes wonder if you even bother trying, even as a friend.
Cos you know if you don't give two flippin' fucks about this, then I don't see a point in trying to be a good friend either.
You get?

It Takes One To Know One

Oct. 6th, 2009 | 11:51 am
mood: crappy crappy
music: Scavenger - Killradio

I sleep in till late morning, then nap again in the evening.
On some days I can't get past 2am cos "To Kill A Mocking Bird" just puts me to sleep, yet I enjoy reading it.

Yes, I spend most of my day sleeping for no apparent reason.
Ask me why.

This morning, I woke up at 4am and couldnt get back to sleep.
The words "what if" and "maybe" just kept repeating in my mind and I felt like the worst thing on earth really.
Thoughts about how things could have been different or why things have changed so drastically resounded in my head time and time again, in my awakened period of time this morning.
I finally dozed off due to the tiredness of my self thoughts and psychoing.

Dreaming wasn't all rainbows and unicorns either.
My dream (I can't remember what) was filled with emotions and tears, go figure.
I woke up feeling like the shittiest I've been in my 18 years. Tough night.

Well basically, I think spending time alone at home and having to deal with THIS just makes me an emotionally unstable person.
I tend to overthink things, become irritable, angry and anti-social to everything around me.
Yet on the contrary, I like being alone. I find peace in it, having to deal with only my own self and nothing else.
I like the quiet and serenity of my home, knowing that the only living being in it is me and the world is my oyster, I can do anything I want, no barriers, no restrictions, no one there to criticise or judge me.

Right, I now sound like some mentally unstable bitch.

How different can things be now? I don't know.
Honestly, I guess I made myself this upset, cos I might have invested too much feelings in one bank.
Then again, with JT here as my escapade, it doesn't seem all that bad.
We'll still be friends... right?

Lightness

Oct. 5th, 2009 | 02:55 pm
mood: calm calm

It seems I have all the time in the world this week.
I'm pretty much, totally free from errands and schedules to keep up with.
Kinda regret not double intensifying my driving lessons, bummer.

Baracuda camp on Saturday was really fun and somehow nostalgic.
It made me think about the good ol' times and how our past time was merely just making fun and annoying each other.

Class picnic at Marina Barrage yesterday was pretty good too.
Talked my troubles away with Joel while having some bro time, and it felt relieving.
Oh, the irony.

Anyway, think I'm gonna snuggle in my bed with my book, and enjoy being alone at home along with the
perfect gloomy overcast sky and cool weather today.
Not forgetting my bbq calbee prawn crackers.
Sounds like a plan.

Till then.

Could I Be Your Revolution?

mood: blah blah
music: City Of Devils - Yellowcard



I sometimes wonder if my life is going in circles.
I don't know what I want.
Yet again, whats new right.

The best decision that supports an action might not be desirable,
but I guess its to prevent other problems from arising.
I kinda lost my train of thoughts for a while there hmm.

Anyway, today was a pretty good day.
Shopped, met J, met old friends that I missed dearly, and had a great time.

If something or someone doesn't make you happy, why should you continue on with it/him/her then?
Think thats a good phrase to always keep in mind yes.

Driving and Butter tomorrow, can't wait.
Hopefully I'll have a blast at Butter.

Knowing his/her weirdness and flaws, yet still loving him/her and still not knowing why, thats love.

Something I came up with and firmly believe in.
DON'T MOCK ME FOR BEING CHEESY OKAY.

Bye.

A Tale Of Trouble

Sep. 26th, 2009 | 11:07 pm
mood: bored bored
music: Twenty Twenty Surgery - Taking Back Sunday

 


I had a horrible nightmare.
It was almost like I was in the final destination movie.
I saw a series of supernatual eerie happenings, and then I researched on them, only to find out that those who have
experienced such happenings will die soon enough.
Can you imagine how scared I felt?
Guess you can't.

Think it was cos I was talking about religion, and life after death over ice-cream last night.

ANYWAY,
I'm finally back from Shaaaaanghai.
10 days of a whirlwind of emotions is a good phrase to describe how this trip went.
It was both awesome and sucky as hell.
Shitload of happenings occured and I don't intend to explain them over here.

Its amazing how China bans facebook and how I lived without logging in to my account for the entire 10 days.
The constant sleeping till early morning and crashing at my friends' rooms was the most memorable part of the trip.
Waking up early every morning was a torture for me.
I treasure my sleep time. A lot.
I'd even give food up for sleep.

On another note, the trip was also heaps of fun with my schoolmates around every single day.
We took crazy photos with each other, made each other laugh 24/7, played stupid drinking games in the wee hours of the morning, complained over the disgusting food given during lunch and dinner, and had a good time shopping in the streets of Shanghai.

Not forgetting insanely cheap prices, SGD $4 for 16 yummylicious xiao long baos!

Things have definitely changed drastically over the 10 days.
It never fails to amaze me how one's emotions can change so much over such a short period of time.
Life is full of surprises ain't it.

I'm confused all over again.
SHIT.

Photos will be up on facebook, soon enough.

Here comes the phlegm and mucus guys, brace yourselves!
So yes, fever and flu's finally gone, and I'm currently in recovery stage.

I am much too lazy to finish up packing for Shanghai.
So much stuff to bring and account for, how annoying.
And I've still yet to read up on my project briefs so that I'm 100% prepared for this trip.
SHOOT ME.

I can't wait to get away from the horrendously hot weather that Singapore has currently.
Its a freaking furnace tmai.

Remaining to-pack list:

Underwear
HP, ipod, camera chargers
Pjs
Writing materials
Toiletries

K bye.

I want out

Sep. 9th, 2009 | 10:24 pm

This is just great.
I've a fever, horrible sore throat, nose is leaking like a tap,
and my mom is literally screaming at me for not finding out enough information for the Shanghai trip.

FML.

In the first instance, I wasn't even well informed of the details for the entire trip.
Insurance, payment amount and official documents.
Yes, the in-charge might have mentioned some stuff here and there,
but there was no physical hard copy to refer to and is it my fucking fault that I'm not well informed in this?
The whole planning process for this entire trip is so fucking disorganised and vague.
I know I'm definitely not the first to say this.

True, I could have called to check with the in-charge, but my fever isn't helping me to do so.
I just feel so horrible and uncomfortable whenever my body starts to burn.
When my eyes become hot and heavy, my head starts pounding against my temples, my limbs ache,
and my hands, feet, and arms start feeling chilly.

I fucking hate the fact even more that I refuse to tell my mom that I'm ill,
because she'll just start going all mad and scolding me till I reach boiling point,
blaming me for not taking care, and especially stressing the fact that the Shanghai trip is approaching.
It sucks that I've to take my meds in secret and hide them in my tissue drawer,
and bear the full cost of the doctor's fees which added up to $30, nice.

I fucking hate this.
Bye.

Its best not to care sometimes

mood: cynical cynical
music: White Collar - Haste The Day



So holidays have been pretty good so far.
Been sleeping till 12noon everyday, lunch and then its out to meet friends and such!
This is the perfect life.

On the "whats happening with me side" isn't so good though,
but I honestly don't want to think about it anymore yup.

The best part of it all, I think I spent almost $300 worth of shopping in my first week alone.
I was like the unstoppable shopping machine literally.
It was a BIG mistake for dad to get me that UOB Visa. MISTAKE.
Ion is also another HUGE MISTAKE.
I don't know, am I just crazy or is it just me?
Shopping seems to make the world a better place.
I somehow forget my thoughts and worries when I get that adrenaline rush when i walk into a store,
find something I look nice in, get to the cashier, and just swipe that visa or atm card.
APPROVAL it says, and I'm the happiest person on earth.
This just somehow relates so much to confessions of a shopaholic? Coincidence you'd say?

That aside, the school trip to Shanghai is approaching fast.
And man, it is totally not all play no work.
Need to read up and get myself familiar with what to do and research on in Shanghai for the goddamned FYPs.
Here goes the stress again.
Hopefully I'll still find time for fun.

I can't stand Pitbull, and "I Know You Want Me", but that song's somehow addictive.
Ew gross, I disgust myself!

Social House yesterday night was fucking awesome.

Dinner and coffee with the girls tonight was great too.
Miss them so much.

I have to come up with a to do list this holiday.
And I need to get more formal wear/work clothes for Shanghai cos we've to wear that for 7 days of company visiting.
How sweet ah.

First thing to do this holiday, CLEAR MY BURSTING WARDROBE.
