Anyway. Lol i noticed it's been quite some time seen xmas but man oh man. Things have been rocking!
xmas eve: was alone at home with my dad. didn't see a need to countdown for xmas. pretty funny to think of it. nobody counts down for chinese new year or other stuffs et cetera. spent the evening exchanging witty retorts with regina on fb (rmb your scrambled egg photo and status and etcccc), and tingyong pimping me to his friend on msn (sheesh, if you ever read this, shame on you)
xmas: went out with meiping and tzehui after regina not so subtly dared me to, in which case, HA! Gotcha. anyway it wasn't as fun as i thought it would be. Roaming the streets, even town, doesn't appeal to me. And we didn't take photos!
boxing day: post xmas gathering with family and enjoyed popping champagne for the very first time.
27th: i think nothing significant happened.
28th: netball year-end outing. before that went for haircut. I think the (what do you call a person who cut your hair, in a nice way?) thinks we very gum (meaning close) cos she treated my hair roughly. Sheesh. Mom treated me to Seafood Harvest for lunch. Anyway HAD A SMASHING TIME WITHOUT AGNES, CHERYL AND CHUYAN. Lol the previous sentence was just to make them jealous. And we so rock at Taboo esp me and Rachel. Lol. That's like our ultimate game. Someone shld just buy it, so that we can go to that somebody's house to play next time.
Oh! After the lunch thing and before the netball gathering, I sibei suay kena some perv la. I was sitting alone at the bus stop, and this guy dressed in a lousy cotton shirt and PE pants pulled right up like those nerdy kind, came right at me. You know how you usually occupy the entire seat at the bus stop when no one's there by seating in the middle? I was doing exactly that. And the fucking perv came right next to me and sat down. Like fuck? I was trying to subtly move away, thinking he might not have notice that he was seating too freaking near me. And i was plugged to my Zen Neeon so i thought it was hey probably coincidence or shit. The next thing i know, he was talking to me. So me, trying to be polite, (by this time i was alr at the end of the bench, thank God he didn't follow me, or else i duno what i would have done, like seriously.), unplugged one side, and listened. He spoke as though he was a bit mentally retarded (no offence), and i was trying to be patient. He asked (more like demanded) "I want to go to Potong Pasir. How do I go there?" And everyone who knows where i live knows that PP is just a few bus stops away. So patient me said "You have to go to the opposite bus stop and take ANY bus." Again with the questions he asked "Do you have pen and paper? I want to write down the bus number." "I don't have. YOU CAN TAKE ANY BUS." "I don't want to take bus. I want to take taxi. Do you have money?" He was getting on my nerves already. I stared at him, thinking inwardly are you kidding me? "No, I don't." "Where are you going?" Like wtf? Like I'm going to tell you, you asshole trying to cheat my money and who knows what else. "Out. I REALLY DON'T HAVE MONEY."
Salvation finally arrives in the form of a bus (SBS 107) with a malay driver. I flagged and boarded thinking "Phew finally got rid of that maniac" and just sat down on one of the front seats, intending to drop just a few stops later, since i only hopped on to this bus for escape purposes. And then awhile little i wondered why the door of the bus didn't close. And SHIT! didn't come close to what i was feeling. He fucking followed me up. I was trying to contain my panic, frantically chanting please don't notice me, please don't notice me, please don't notice me. I think some gods heard my prayer, cos that maniac only asked the driver uncle; "Are you malay or are you chinese?" Thankfully he was a malay, and answered that maniac and he thankfully got off the bus.
So freaking scary can.
29th: went back to school to run several errands. saw cgpa. and well, that's that.
30: which is today, yesterday already, got the entire resulst revealed. Got A for econs. WAHAHAH was just telling daphne how i shld totally go back nyjc to show my econ tutor my grade. (I got C for Alvls) and scored a B for french. Hehe maybe i'll consider taking level 2 next year. Met yingjie at j8 for dinner meeting. We were super efficient la. I doubt the other groups started planning already.
ANYWAY. Countdown avec moi demain. We are going to drink, gamble and party the night awayyy.
Lol. Can you imagine if we actually turned out like that? HAHAHHAH
Can't find any pic. But omg after watching the trailer, i declare it a must-watch for 2010. It stars Channing Tatum (hottie from Step Up, Fighting and GI Joe) and Amanda Seyfried (somewhat familiar). It's adapted from a book by Nicolas Sparks with the same title. The plot from Wiki doesn't say much so, go youtube (verb) the trailer to see for yourself!
Anyway, fun tidbits to share. From Wiki:
A "Dear John letter" is a letter written to a husband or boyfriend to inform him their relationship is over, usually because the author has found another man. Dear John Letters are often written out of an inability or unwillingness to inform the man in person. The reverse situation, in which someone writes to their wife or girlfriend to break off the relationship, is referred to as a "Dear Jane letter".
Lol that's all folks, moi requires her beauty sleep.
MSN has interesting articles on relationships, sex and guys. Not that i'm in one (a relationship, that is) but it doesn't kill to be better prepared. Lol
Got psychoed into reading Xiaxue's blog after seeing Chuyan's, and wow. Her love story's almost a freaking modern fairy tale come true. Fuck-jeal-ing-ous. But really, have a look if you're like me, with too much time on hands. See the video too while you're there.
Dick vs Chick or Chick vs Dick has new episodes. And lmao video after video.
Had/Celebrated/Blank(?) guo dong yest. Mom made herbal chicken, Dad bought duck, and they ate tang yuan while i contented myself with B&J's cookie dough. Blissful or what. Hahahha
STARS is killing me literally. (Damn cock up. It's so unfair other schools have their registration dates way earlier than mine.) I also have this gut feeling that the first sentence of this entry is going to be around quite some time, say give or take the next 3 years?
Sherlock Holmes was great. Having to watch it at first row sucked though. Saw Allan Wu and Wong Lilin at Carl's Jnr too! Wanted to take a pic with Allan but then chances are i'll appear noobish so i passed. But he's gorgeous in real life!
OMC is shit ttm at the moment. (No elaboration.)
STARS is still killing me. (Details will kill you the way STARS did me.)
Got hooked on a new serial drama, english of course, namely The Tudors.
Hot eyecandies, steamy affairs, a perspective of english history although somewhat twisted and dramatized, specifically the Tudor dynasty King Henry VIII played by hottie Johnathan Rhys Meyers. Shall let the pictures speak for themselves.
Seriously, i dun mind bowing down to him. Lol
King Henry VIII & Anne Boleyn
like i've said, steamy stuffs. hahahah
ditto above. intriguing nevertheless huh
another solo of King Henry VIII. the protrait on the left is the real depiction of King Henry VIII
JRM and Natalie Dormer who plays Anne B.
Henry William Dalgliesh Cavill who plays sidekick to King Henry is another hottie. Sorry no time to find his images. Hahaha
There's this Thomas B character that's extremely funny. The way the show depicted him that is. He actually pimps his two daughters, Mary and Anne to the King in return for riches and fortune. LMAO and the The Lord Archbishop of York played by Sam Neill and other archbishops are evil and corrupted in the story.
is it any no wonder i ended up red, tired, and with aching muscles?
Netball match against hall 15 (Emmeline's hall) at 12 noon and got trashed like shit. Not my fault certainly. Then nearly straight away after that, softball training till 430.
basketball match later. it'll determine whether i'll be going home on thur or fri. heheh can't wait! to go home. HAHAHHA
wanted to find a suitable image to accompany the title but no! yahoo didn't have much choices that collide with my ideals.
Today's not a particularly bright day (for me). Literally it is, kinda hard to avoid the glaring sun, but of course i was talking about metaphorically.
Sent my maid back to her home in Jakarta in the morning. It just feels so surreal. Has 2 years of my life really gone past, just like that? Nothing like the cold slap of harsh reality to wake you up to the real world.
I think its mainly because this particular maid of mine has been around, the sufficient-to-say 2 most important years of my entire life - the shaping/moulding of adulthood.
She wasn't just another employee under my mom, she was more than that. Even though mom occasionally comments that she wasn't particularly bright, despite all her faults and all, she was part of the family. She was always there for me, throughout the 2 years of cockroaches/beetles/generally insects invasion; no matter the time, always there for me and my siblings like during weekends when she goes out to get breakfast for us, sometimes making 2 trips even; always there despite our many, frankly redundant requests mostly made by my sis and bro and etc.
Some of you might be wondering why the hell is she getting so melodramatic for? It's just a maid. I know, i know. But almost having had a new maid for every two years ever since primary school; how sad is it that you can't remember any of their faces? (Okay maybe one or 2 stuck by in the memory part of the brain but can you imagine?) When they shared 2 years of their life, working under your mom, for you, taking care of you that you can't recall much beyond their names? And trust me, remembering their names are no difficult feat, they mostly have similar names. Guilt, with the capital G came down on me last night.
I was determined to make some changes in my life. Having never send a maid to the airport, i made an effort to today, woke up at 7am despite sleeping at 2plus the previous night. It wasn't a teary goodbye, thankfully, i can get worked up easily these days (not my proudest trait) but yaa. Last night was more like a finale.
My bro and I were having dinner at 8plus, at the dining table. While we were midway in our meal, she came out of the kitchen with a sombre expression. She stood by the dining table, while imploring with her eyes, said her thank you's, and apologised for any past unintentional attempts at evoking our anger. I was hard pressed not to get tears welled up in my eyes. And she had tears in her eyes by the time she finished.
Although it wasn't much, i gave her a small monetary gift as my way of saying thank you. I know i may not always remember her, and her me, but having had a memory like this, for a period of time, is sufficient i think. Enough to make me feel more alive that usual.
Separations are never easy, but pain is part of the growing up process, isn't it?
Sypnosis: Heffa Lump is a self-centred seventeen-year-old who needs to grow up and get a life. Fortunately, the Spatula Academy of Fictional Excellence specializes in helping characters from kids' books cross over into adult fiction. Unfortunately, she's distracted from her attempts to leave adolescence behind when she meets Teddy Kelledy - an impossibly gorgeous boy who eats rare meat, is super-strong, and never goes out in daylight. Could he - just maybe - be a vampire? (Hint: totally.) Soon, Heffa finds herself harassed by supernatural forces on all sides: vampire goths peddling the deadly drug 'Emo' all over town, Jacko-worshipping zombies trying to eat her brains, and werewolves lurking in basements reading copies of Wolf Whistle. A fight is coming, and apparently she's involved...Will Heffa be able to narrate herself out of danger? Will Teddy learn that being with a girl doesn't always have to be about biting? And what will happen when the New Moan rises? "New Moan" is guaranteed to make any fan laugh out loud with its irreverent and clever take on this popular series, which is brilliantly on the nose.

Anyway. The main point about this entry was about me catching New Moon with Meiping at cathay cine. Hahahha got lost in town for awhile but that wasn't the main point. Although it did help that my sis was in sg and that technology for enabling all the direction seeking/aiding. Movie was like so-so just like part 1.
But who are we kidding when we go catch Twilight the saga?
RULE #1: Cardio RULE #2: Double tap RULE #3: Beware of bathrooms/Wear seat belts (can't rmbr which) etc RULE #?: Enjoy the little things
Zombie-d with Poo. It was quite an impromptu thingie. Anyway the show's rated m18 because of gore and violence. Hahahha but funny show really. Rather worth 7.5$ if you ask me. Zombie kill of the week was ffunny. Emma Stone is really hotttttttttt in the show. Oh and it might have a sequel with original cast.
New moon-ing with Meiping tmr.
Ohh that reminds me, the bus ad on new moon is so hilarious, combining the abalone brand and the twilight saga, who would have thought of that! hahahha
For once, i can't decipher my scattered thoughts enough to put words to them. Too many things happening at once prolly? Maybe the effects of stress, post-finals? Nahhhh.
Primary school gathering wasn't what i expected. But really. Things rarely go my way these days. Sheesh.
Anyway thought i'll just post some pics since the cliche saying says that a picture tells a thousand words. Lol
Pictures are taken during the preparation process of YILING's present which i EMPHASIZED TOOK SEVERAL HOURS IN THE MAKING. Since i was the photographer, the pictures sadly do not include me. ):
The Nature Barricade this picture was taken when i was out on the way to get yenleng.
The beginning of the end.
lunchtime entertainment lol
bestie was being surprisingly cooperative
yiling's MOUTHWATERING surprise. HAHAHHAH savour it. The original plan was to get Adam Lambert pics but oh wells. At least i dun think the cover guy's gay. What a waste it'll be if he is. Heheh
my almost completed guitaire.
my pet tortoises.
finally, hours of toiling and hard work. hahahha
i so regret not getting one for myself!
Sidenote: Oh man, can't believe i missed the 300th entry.
For someone who doesn't dream much, since i can't remember when, yesterday was strange to put it mildly.
It was almost as if, my subconscious was trying to make up for all the loss or something. Scared the shit out of me esp the last one.
I had dreams involving like almost everybody.
I saw yenleng, shuxin, jiayi, nicole, my sis and WGH in separate dreams. Like i've mentioned, the latter was the scariest. Can't recall specifically what the other dreams were about. I remember happily flitting through dreams seeing or rather doing catching up with theose peeps. But the WGH tops the nightmare list of 2009.
Imagine after one sem of clearly chinese but apparently trying to slang it to sound american accent, i dreamt that in sem2 he was going to have us for another module. Looking forward to that would be akin to may God have mercy.
We were like so deprived from living in NTU. We actually got high over going to j8. See, people you shld totally cherish what you have now.
Then we went carrefour at PS and were happily rolling the trolley around without buying anything. The initial plan was to get smth but we couldn't find that something so we ended up wandering around.
But all in all, we were pretty efficient.
I wanna watch Zombieland andddddd New Moon esp Taylor L.'s hot bodddddd!!!!!!!!
