anyway ytd i the spirit of good friday, junyang and i decided to go visit the new tampines1 shopping mall.the opening was so hyped up, and i wanted to check out the jeans at uniqlo.
ALAS, when we reached there, the shopping centre was PACKED.as in like, it was REEEEAAALLY crowded.the escalator we were on actually broke down halfway due to overload i think, and the aunties behind us were being retarded. something along the lines of "luckily we were not killed" -.- nvm.and it was useless to try to squeeze into uniqlo, because there was a bloody 40 MIN QUEUE OUTSIDE. the queue was super winding la, 3 times infront of the shop and extended all the way to the emergency exit and toilet!?! i was like OMGG i hate this kinda of crowded places and i HATE queuing, so obviously i decided to return a few months later when the hype has died down.
anyway went on a shopping spree, got some topshop top. oh and i was IN LOVE WITH this pair of green flats in topshop la, it was SO PRETTTTY cos the color was super bright and as everyone knows i love bright colors. so yeah, but dint get it in the end cos it was SO UNCOMFORTABLE. as in the material rocked (suede) and the sides were ULTRA comfy, but the shoe was a little too small and my toes were dying!so to prevent my toes from rotting and dropping off, i decided not to get it sigh :( i was so sad la, junyang had to repeatedly remind me tht i wouldn't have worn it often even if i buy it..but im still sad thinking of it now :(
anyway i FINALLY got my havianas, mel is supposed to get it for me for my bday present but i'll prob hafta wait for another 2 years to get it from her so nvm HAHA. havent worn them yet but i think they're reallly comfy (i tried them on!) and i can finally wear smth other than my purple birks yay :)
oh and i also got this dress thingy, quite cheap la but then i dont like the color (its a very dull purple) but junyang insists tht its nice so i bought it to humor him HAHA sianz.its too long for my liking also, but then mr chua says short dresses = slutty I TOTALLY DNO WHERE THT CAME FROM BUT NVM -.-
ohhhh and the most exciting part is I CUT MY HAIR, LIKE FINALLY!:D twister by monsoon was having an opening promotion, so i got a wash + cut + blow for 20.90 only!its really a steal for the length of my hair, and i always wanted to try one of the monsoon chains.i always go supercuts, and it has been quite good so i've been too lazy to change hair salon, in case the new salon screws up my baobei hair, but ya, guess twister is pretty up to standard too :D heh heh heh now the curls in my hair are almost gone, which made junyang a VERY happy boy cos he finally revealed tht he hated my curls so whtever.now my hair is like quite short..but i like it! :D
anyway ytd morning was giving junyang's sister tuition (kinematics!rahh) when minsi smsed me. her whole msg was in CAPS HAHA she was damn excited cos she was shortlisted for dentistry interview. i got all excited also, so i ditched my tutee (is this even a word?) and raced up the stairs and kicked junyang off the com to check my appliation status.I GOT SHORTLISTED FOR INTERVIEW TOO HAHA and also for law and law double degree!i was quite excited la, but then the stupid law test is on a SUNDAY?i was like omg?!!?thats seriously super crappy, but nvm, hopefully i'll do okay!esp when im not exactly good at this kinda stuff..
O AND BEFORE WE WENT HOME WE HAD NEW ZEALANDS ICECREAM OMGOMG SUPER SUPER SUPER YUMMY?!?!i used to eat it very often when i was in rg (the one at fareast!), but after jc i havent eaten it ONCE.omg its super yummy forest berry and mango <3
right, long and boring post, i shall go web surfing :D

"Take A Bow"
Oh, How about a round of applause, Yeah
A standing ovation
Oh, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
You look so dumb right now
Standing outside my house
Trying to apologize
You're so ugly when you cry
Please, just cut it out
[Chorus:]
Don't tell me you're sorry cause you're not
Baby when I know you're only sorry you got caught
But you put on quite a show
Really had me going
But now it's time to go
Curtain's finally closing
That was quite a show
Very entertaining
But it's over now (but it's over now)
Go on and take a bow
Grab your clothes and get gone (get gone)
You better hurry up
Before the sprinklers come on (come on)
Talking' bout'
Girl, I love you, you're the one
This just looks like a re-run
Please, what else is on (on)
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Oh, And the award for
The best liar goes to you (goes to you)
For making me believe (that you)
That you could be faithful to me
Let's hear your speech, Oh
How about a round of applause
A standing ovation
But you put on quite a show
Really had me going
Now it's time to go
Curtain's finally closing
That was quite a show
Very entertaining
But it's over now (but it's over now)
Go on and take a bow
But it's over now
i love this song!but how ironic that she sang this song, and then accepted a begging boyfriend who hit her.i can't understand men who hit women, it is just disgusting. DISGUSTING. read a book that said, if a man cheat on you or hit you, he can always do it again.so the point is to NEVER ACCEPT APOLOGIZING CHEATING/VIOLENT BOYFRIENDS.no girl, no matter how bitchy or ugly or smelly, deserves that.
okay it is seriously DAMN DISGUSTING.
GIRL POWER FTW <3
one was "hes just not tht into you". it's nice, i like!prob not for those who need a huge, complicated plot and lots of action to appreciate a movie, but i thought the show was really quite sweet and funny!i love jennifer aniston, although she looks really old in the show..
oh and my colleague is super retarded, apparently he went out with his ex girlfriend and they watched this show together. he was like feeling totally awkward throughout the show cos the show was like depicting exactly what he went through with her. all the "its not you, its me" and blahblah. haha it was quite funny when he told me.
and the best part is, after i watched finish the show, i turned back to the almost-empty cinema and saw, of all people, SELENE CHOO FJAFKLAF HAHA.i was ultra shocked!hahah had a very short catch up session with her, she's as scrwed up as always!love you selene!haha
and tdy i watched marley and me.I CRIED LIKE SOME CRAZY WOMAN, i bet junyang would have freaked out if he dint know how easily i cry over shows haha.at first i thought the story was abit bland, like there was no climax and all, but at the end when the family was finally settled and things are looking up marley died :( it was super sad!esp when you see how much the family loves the dog :( and marley is SUPER irritating and SUPER cute!!haha i think its quite true when they say that hes the worst dog in the world haha.but yeah makes me really want a dog nxt time, but i want a CHOWCHOW!whee!
i think for some reason i sound weirdly childish in this post, whatever, im tired.
its another 5 days of work, or 4 days + THE BIG DAY.sianz.
goodnight blog

| What is your True Fear? Your Result: Losing Someone You love affection and the people in your life more than anything. Your greatest fear is that one day someone you care about won't be there anymore. You are a very friendly and inviting person, who draws in a lot of friendships with your kind, considerate, and loyal nature. However, deep down you are slightly insecure and unsure of yourself. You couldn't deal with it if you didn't have one of your loved ones in your life anymore. You don't have too much to worry about though, because with a friend like you, no one will want to lose you either! | |

saw this on anna's blog from a post long long long time ago. decided to take it, and the results are surprisingly true. i looked through all the other possible results, and i must admit that it is definitely super accurate. i can never accept the fact that no party will lasts forever, and that one day, some day, all relationships will cease to exist or just fade into our memories. just the thought of it makes me sad, urghh.
actually this quiz is making me think hard about the people in my lives, and how much they mean to me. friends are always important, although i may not always have the energy to talk to them or meet up with them. but my reliance on them for company and happiness is undeniable i guess.
and then there is him. hmm, everyone says that nothing really lasts forever, and my dad has repeatedly told me that we are just FOOLING AROUND and it'll end all too soon. but i'd like to think, to believe, that this may just prove him, and the countless number of cynics out there, wrong. maybe some things do last forever. that despite all the challenges and business and long-distances and too-tired-to-even-drop-a-sms-es and lethary and i-think-im-getting-sick-of-this-but-then-i
i know this is gonna be hard, and given my personality, it is gonna be so much harder. but one thing i know, and that is i have never been so sure of anything or anyone in my life, and i am willing to do whatever it takes to make it work. it's gonna take lots of patience and energy, a super lot of faith and an immense amount of love, but i'm prepared to make it there in the end :)
okay i hope this is not too ... for some people, but maybe after celebrating vday last weekend, i am feeling abit more lovey-dovey than my usual self.
anyway some updates about me, i've been working and it's been a very..different experience i guess. i don't hate it, although it can get quite dry sometimes, eg the 1.5 hours US conference call this morning. it was super hard to stay still in my seat after such a long time. work really makes me miss school! i've never really believed it when all the grown-ups tell me to treasure my schooling years because work SUCKS, but i think im getting it finally. school is probably the only place where i actually get to hang around the people i love all day long and can get away with sleeping at times when im supposed to be awake, or ponning sch simply because i cant be bothered to drag myself off the bed. and it doesnt help to remember that the one thing that kept me from ponning too many lessons is because i get to see the people i love in school, eg the class, the councillors, and some of my teachers cos they're just too nice.
OHWWELLS, ANYWAYYY, i will be gng out with xianying this weekend, and also with junyang i think. next friday is RESULTS DAY.i know i dint do well for As, but yet im like too sian to even feel anxious about it, sigh. i really hope everything will work out fine :(
okay this should be long enough to make up for the 2-weeks break from posting, haha. having a meeting in 5 minutes :(

highlights include the SUPER CRAZY fireworks and firecrackers that people over there light up during the holidays. since fireworks are allowed, almost every household will go buy some kinda portable fireworks (it looks like a huge box that is mother heavy). i have seen such an excess of fireworks that it has actually gotten really boring.and the people there do not realise that people need something called SLEEP. they set off the super loud fire crackers like in the middle of the night to chase away the monster NIAN or something, and some wake up at 3am just to light the fireworks. CRAZY PLEASE! but it really felt alot more CNY there with all the noise and stuff!heh, quite an experience of a lifetime.
anyway i met junyang over the weekend, its the first time im seeing him since he went into army. like omg, he is BOTAK HAHAHA.its really quite funny, esp since he has such an exceptionally round head HAHA.but then i permed my hair in china and it looks damn DAMN disgusting now so i guess i have no right to comment now but still HAHAHAHA.hilarious. he had better not read this post :D
o and we watched serendipity and made of honor at mel's place on her bday!serendipity would be quite sweet if the two characters dint come off as being so stupid. i mean like they are just so weird!although the 5 dollar bill and book part is really quite sweet heh. made of honor is sweet!:)
anyway the class people are going out on except for some for obvious reasons haha.its gonna be FUN can see the class people again whee :) can't wait.
was talking to xianying just now, and our conversation made me feel abit....old.she was talking about university and life and stuff, and i realised that i actually do NOT want to grow up so fast. she was wondering if choosing a not-so-popular course in uni, like not law or medicine or whatever, will make others think of you as a failure. and it kinda made me think just how complicated life is gonna be. last time school used to be just school, everyone wanted to get good grades and stellar cca records. but when we enter society theres gonna be lots more than just hardwork and good grades. theres gonna be lots of socialising and an excess amount of thinking required. things will no longer be as simple as I LIKE IT SO I WANT IT. its gonna be like, what will people think if i do this, will it affect how people look at me, will what i say make me seem like KLAJDFJAFALSF, should i mix with the right type of people so that i can be exposed to the opportunities i want..BLAH, BLAH BLAH.
i don't want my life to be like that :( i like to live freely and not having to think 2948357034802 steps ahead of what i am going to do so that i can make the best choices in life.
I HATE IT, THINKING OF IT MAKES ME FEEL ALL TIRED AND OLD :(
okay i am really too lazy to say more, i am very bored and lazy.and i've been getting hooked on the windows game hearts.its quite fun!
starting work this wed, hopefully it won't be too boring :(
bye!

anyway had like a combined house d dinner last night with jeremy sianghuat jieliang wanling.it was quite fun, esp with jieliang and all his cursings and jeremy's weird outlook in life haha apparently jeremy thinks tht being rich in life is more impt than being happy, and people should not be given too much happiness for god knows why.
