School has started.

big eraser friend,

you need to understand that i am not as disposable as you think i am.
you need to know.
but how do i go about telling you?



Horrid is the new school.

Jiale.

Mama is back, which is undoubtedly a great thing.
I love that wonderful feeling of having someone to bicker with, someone to pamper me and someone to pay for some of the items i covet.
Ahhhh, motherly love is the greatest love.

That aside,



Jiale left for UK, which somehow shook me a little.
Don't be mistaken, im not pretending to be the emo BFF but a recent met up left me thinking about filling-the-gaps.
which i have to say frankly, we should forgo the content part, just focus on the comfy feelings we have.
we have both added quite a number of people in out lives, its just a lil sad that we grew apart.

as with all the kinds of friendships these days, you take some, and you lose some.
aint i lucky i have libing, keaty, Xy,sandy, cha and a couple of fantastic ladies in my life?
i hope we grow old together, drinking tea and watching lovers go by. (well, the last one was random.)

Chua Xinyu, Rain

Call her: CHUA XINYU, RAIN

Status: very SLIM

Be charmed by...
her lady-like features, with a brain that functions like an encyclopedia of various workout plans and routines that will sharpen and tone every part of your body. Zest and entrepreneurship, set to rule the world with IT knowledge, business skills and not to mention a strong financial backing. Do note that she's heading for UK very very soon...

Her kinda men:
Give her someone mature and stable, preferably driving a BMW, 10 years older (just the way she likes it, medium well) and has assets that can pay for at least one Agnes B boutique (all goods inclusive) per month.

I'm thinking private banker, banker, millionaire (is that a job?) or billionaire.

she's sweet enough for all those i reckon.

Before i embark on my projects...

WHY I HATE MILEY CYRUS (OR WHATEVER HER NAME IS)





what the hell is wrong with these Disney kids?
why too sick of feeling all prim and proper?
the hair, the pout, the tee, the underwear - ONLY 15?
is she yearning to get laid or what

Join my hate group please
YUCK.

Projects A, B and C

Am gonna do a series of good-single-friends introduction on the blog
much like advertising, much like 'WANTED' posters, but more fun.
I'll quote them, bitch about them and pretty much try my best to 'sell' them just for the fun of it!


LOOK OUT FOR THE FIRST LUCKY FRIEND.

(im looking at a lady a year older then me and it too awfully thrifty for her status )



OOH, cant wait to embark on Project ALPHA.
As for Project BETA, Im gonna start an inspiration cut-out diary for all the pretty things i see in magazines (beauty advice, my current vice, fashion, food and basically lifestyle needs). I just need a huge pretty (preferably hard cover note book)
And as for Project GAMMA, its gonna be room-revamp, which includes moving furniture out and decorating my bare wall.

with just weeks left till start of school, i had better get my bum working.

Trippy with my pretties.

You can't fight this feeling:











Li bing a LIL moody in Zouk.




Ms Tong went out with Ms Taiwan and Ms Editor on a whirlwind trip meant for long lost lovers.
how can you deny them of the right to feel good together?

Hello friend.

I think we were happier then.
i thought.

SEX AND THE CITY SEQUEL - confirmed

I cant tell you how HAPPY i am!
tis confirmed!

as taken from Fadedyouthblog:

At last night’s Sex and the City: The Movie DVD launch at the New York Public Library, Sarah Jessica Parker and show creator Michael Patrick King confirmed that there will be a sequel.
Thursday night at the Public Library party for the DVD of the film, he and Sarah Jessica Parker confirmed it. He’s off to write the next installment. Both SJP and Kim Cattrall told me they’re excited to see what he comes up with.
King told me, quipping, “I’m thinking of doing an animated version of them as babies.” SJP added, “Let’s wring everything we can out of this thing!”

lucky number 27.
I do suspect thou, that these songs contribute to some of the nightmares i have - Too sorrowful.
and in a time like this, with the holidays, life is only joy and nothing else, so its bloody weird.
but oh well, Heartbreak songs are the ultimate best for long bus rides.


.

its irritating how i have to meet up with people that i-absolutely-don't-wanna-see.
like i woulden even wanna waste money having dinner with.YUCK
Like a certain XX who lives in her own bubble.
(its not an offense to bitch on one's own blog i suppose)

Bitching aside, Kick boxing lessons almost killed me.
im 19 and i can barely catch up with those 30-something career women/housewives who do mean kicks and punches.
talk about feeling like a loser (in a volleyball attire, the others were all GYM clothes equipped)

I did do an unexpected meet-up with...(drumrolls)



i think many won't believe what they are seeing.
I honestly thought she would be 'outta my life' since we've barely talked for over a year, much less say dinner?!
But it turned out.. somewhat relaxing.
we've moved off from the 'lets reminisce old times' and are all about issues.
No longer the as sticky as glue, but still friends.
sometimes life does give pleasant surprises.
i did doubt like hell, but doubt was dissolved with chemistry.
safe trip to UK, Bon Voyage.

Finger massager.

We Were (at my departure to HKG):



and now we are, again (all back):









a simple dinner for wendy ended up as a hardcore labour-intensive slumber night.

we completed Wii Rockband, all the way from scratch till the final act, in a matter of hours, and i mean 12 midnight to about 3.30pm the next day.

I thought it was destructive enough that i had a Wii in my house that constantly prompts me to create an 'accident' at home. (i slammed the damn controller on my TV in a moment of ...adrenaline rush)
I completely lost control with the drums but thankfully i managed with the bass and guitar, i have never played so much music in my entire life, needless to say i took a break from 4am onwards till 9am.

Carried on with 'raving rabbits' which totally ignite my passion of jumping around like a mad women. My two controllers shall join wendy's Wii soon.

all i can say is: HARDCORE



i need a finger massager

distant dreamer.

its so hard to fake it.
and lets face it, we're on a different frequency.

keep your mouth shut.

I need to deal with this.
i hope it will not be permanent.
the pain is, mentally excruciating.

I can't get a bloody reading.
im upset and disappointed.
honestly, i just don't think i can face you.

or maybe i just don't know how.

//

Being too free,
makes my thoughts roam too far.

NOW!

I just wanna be in the same class as Sandy, PRONTO

upmost importance.

Rather than being disappointed in you, i think im more ashamed and disappointed in myself.
and mainly, my upmost trust in you.

i somehow wished that you are much more than you ever were,
and yet, i don't want to lose what i know of you.

you've been proving to me that you change is more than i can handle.
it kinda, just a lil tinge, breaks my heart.

snippets

what happened lately is that other than hanging out with the old best friends, i met a new best friend.
The new best friend is obviously very interesting and has enough 'junk' in his 'trunk' to entertain me day and night.
He funds my obsession in an unimaginable way.
And i would love to introduce him to everyone, HELLO National Library.

Keeping up with the Harry Potters and the Edward Cullen/Bella Swan romance (Twilight) pretty much keeps me feeling young, naive and almost in a dream-like state.
I mean, this is the kind of 'adrenaline' that fantasy stories give, isn't it?

Thou i can't live with the fact that stories like that end so beautifully (life aint no fairytale), i could live with immersing myself in other books and other characters. Of course its hard to get to the classics side, Wuthering heights, the Great Gatsby and Shakespeare are not the easiest things to read, given my level of patience.

There are the contemporary writers who manage to weave philosophies, plots and develop characters, all in a shorter amount of time and can still capture my attention and interest.Thank god for Camille Laurens! (In his arms) and the weekly does of chick lits and sappy love novels. James Patterson is nearly as melodramatic as Nicholas Sparks, now why dint anyone notice that? And if there are people out there who have not read Haruki Murasaki, cult jap author, its time to head to NLB or Borders.


im blabbering too much about books, now back to social life.

KEAT has gotten a macbook, im bloody proud of her, tempted to have my darling tongy tong tong ibook changed but NO, she stays as she is because we've been thru thick and thin.now the only thing i have to do is find out how to install microsoft office into her system.HELP ANYONE?!!! PLEASE!

The camera's always resting at home so the only way i have with visuals is Bingbongbiang's blog.
our 'surprise' picnic, kinda failed attempt, for wei long at a secret location.HAHA
its takes abit of effort to integrate back into sunny singapore, erm YUCKS.
the company helps.



oh anyway, BBB, John mayer is pretty amazing.
.
the new Business Traveller interns have reached Hong Kong by now and god bless them, they are wayyyy to lucky!
and for those who still think that BT in hong kong is 'Business Times', you ought yo re-evaluate your reading list.

i say we need a reunion.

Met up with the NTU babes, my fellow mugger and the seemingly can-never-get-drunk lady
a 12 to 12 outing which involves quite too much laughter, sick little jokes and confessions and a pretty high podium moment.
isnt teenage-hood all about things like these?




Our ever dramatic moments.
its all about popcorn boys, pageants, love-hate relationships with mass comm and a dose of killer nurse fetish.





Singapore need more ladies night, liquid buffets and open bar.
To sept 5th.

another take on stylebytes

Stylebytes is gone and it somehow occurred to me that it might be because she's too sad to blog.
Being the online stalker of Agathe aka Stylebytes, my guess after looking thru her stuffs on Phairy is that she moved away from, the possible love of her life, and did not get to keep the pig.
read: DIVORCE


its just my feel, her taking her own pictures (some obviously on timer) and the mention of finding a new place to stay.
i think it was painful painful painful and she moved away and is now trying to start anew.
it almost feels like she's on a summer vacation, only a possibly heartbroken one.


OUCH.

basic sincerity.

Before i can even unpack, im flying off to China yet again.
This time not for food, fun nor shopping, but as a filial grand daughter and caretaker.
I hope we make it in time.

Time to pack(light).


Bon Voyage.

Hamstring

gorgeous was crying out in pain, quite obviously, and i could only shift uncomfortably in my seat, nothing else.
Its a painful decision to leave the field, even without competing, and thou i'll rather not rub salt to his wounds, the fact that the race was held in his own nation makes matters worst.
it was heart wrenching to watch, knowing that it was all live, and that liu xiang ain't getting a second chance at the hurdles, not in 2008.

I was kinda bloody affected cause i've been wanting to watch China's most famous athlete run and jump, since i ended my internship, before olympics even started. it was just painful painful and just mind blowingly, painful.

Mr gorgeous long legs will still be China's pride, his win in athens (against the westerners) will stay with China.
meanwhile, i'll just have to wait till he gets better.
or maybe try getting a picture with his wax figurine somewhere.

ah, im getting all emotional over this one.

details, of olympics.

Singapore remains the same.
The MRT is ever crowded, filled with our multi-racial counter parts.
I finally saw somerset central for myself, Terminal three is indeed the most beautiful terminal around and coffeebean still exists in many locations all over the island.

My life has been overtaken by Olympics (my undying desire to see China hurdle superstar Liu Xiang in action) and Sleep.
its really hard to not switch on the TV and watch Olympics, im just waiting to see Liu Xiang, watching beach/court volleyball, anticipating more water action from Phelps and waiting for water polo to start.

if only i had a bigger TV, more comfy sofa and a personal butler.

Singapore's weather is really quite alright, everyone's telling me about the heat but man oh man, this is nothing compared to the damp humid summer that Hong Kong has ungraciously shined on me. But im already missing my mongkok and fantastic char siew and goose.

Flight back to Singapore was almost just as torturous as the flight in, United has really great PR people hanging around, but airline wise...and despite upgrade to economy premium (said to have more leg room...) being sandwiched between two weird men on the plane's weird experience. and not to mention inattentive stewardess..

Well, Singapore aint complain nation (to me at least) so i ought to shut up and get back to opening my parcels, packing my bags, catching Olympics and trying to catch a glimpse of Brangelina's twins.
