  • XOXO,

    Contains spoilers from Gossip Girl.

    Y'know what's so frustrating about GG?
    No, it's not the constant drama and scandals and scheming and manipulating. It's the fact that nobody stays in a relationship longer than 7 episodes. The longest was Chuck and Blair till the scriptwriters decided to call the whole thing off and on again and off again. For them it's oh she loves him but he doesn't admit, oh now he does and she doesn't and repeat cycle, and oh they both love each other okay happy couple, then they hurt each other and then break it off but still love each other, then he tells her to wait at the top of somewhere and if she doesn't go he's closing his heart to her and she made it but she was too late but then she went to find him and yay happy couple again. And then when he's about to propose (!) someone/ the past has to mess it all up and in the end the couple who you've been holding your breath for and rooting for the entire 3 seasons are no more (for the 20th time). And then Chuck had to be shot and his ring mugged from him while Blair is on her way to France.

    What?! I just can't believe I got through all 3 seasons for that. And I can't believe how much I'm dying to get a hold of season 4.
    Urgh.

    Season 3 did not end on a good note for me. Chuck and Blair should have been engaged and who cares if they're boring together, it's even more boring when they keep breaking up cause what's new right.

    I think Gossip Girl's last season should see to the marriage of Dan & Serena/ Chuck & Blair/ both. Oh wait but it is still a teenage drama serial and they are no older than 21...

    I shall stop ranting about GG not going the way I wanted (when did teen serials ever?) and sleep because I have a Biology test in 14 hrs, and Stats quiz in 15 hrs.

    Yes Hannah, it was a mistake to go on a GG marathon before the holidays.

  • Boom boom bang

    Today was a rather eventful day.

    The day started by forcing myself out of bed and dragging my feet to the shower (freezing cold one, of course). Fast-forward the hour's worth of putting myself together ie. clothes, iced honey, makeup, mtv, hair, accessories, bag, etc. It took me a considerably longer time to get to school. Stupid Chinatown jam. School was bleh. I am kinda in trouble for skipping school on Monday but it's all sorted out, hopefully. Btw, I skipped school on Monday because I was in a bad mood and didn't feel like committing 3 hrs of traveling just for 2 hrs of school. Doesn't give me a right to take eduction for granted but... I was in a damn bad mood.

    My teacher just had to tell me that right before the stats test. He just had to. Of course I couldn't focus and I am very sure I messed up about, 9 marks. Out of 25 :/ At most I'll get a B-? Ah I deserved it. I am willing to get shit grades than to not get any grades at all. I hope my plan comes through. Otherwise... k lets not talk about it.

    And then I went back early and met Eunice G at Vivo Starbucks to SMAO (Study My Ass Off). We mugged mugged mugged for I think 5 hours which I am super proud of. I study the most when I'm a) Outside home, b) With a friend/s, and c) At a coffee joint of some sort. Somewhere in the middle of our hXc mugging, we had a visitor (heeeeeheeeeheeeee). Good company is all I will say. I reached home at quarter to 11 and found out that I'll be moving to an apartment in Holland.
    Without parents supervision.

    So awesome.

    Okay now to think of it, today wasn't that eventful. Quite the ordinary school day, but still not quite.

    Goodnight. I am going to read my notes to sleep.

    (And yes my entry title has nothing to do with anything, the song was just stuck in my head. Thanks Ke$ha, you've totally dominated my mental playlist.)

  • You're not the one

    You're way too young to be broken
    You're way too young to fall apart
    You're way too young to play these games
    But you better start
    But you better start

    This is when it starts
    From the beating of your heart till the street lamps talk to you
    Jumping off of the edge or asleep in your head
    Everything's turning dark to you
    I went to pick the up the parts
    The doctors hiding the charts
    He won't let me see this side of you
    It's on the tip of my tongue
    You know you're way too young to have someone lie to you

    It was the second I lit
    Your first cigarette
    I forget who you used to be
    And I bit my lip
    The second you sipped, the poison that was mixed for me

    Drink the poison lightly
    Cuz' there are deeper and darker things than you
    I know, cuz' I've been there too
    I know it might seem frightening
    To have the world fall apart right under your shoes
    Trust me, you'll make it through

    I'm not the one
    I'm not the one who wants to hurt you
    I'm not the one
    I'm not the one who wants to hurt you
    You better find somebody else to get a hold of yourself
    I'm not the one
    I'm not the one who wants to hurt you

  • I like the way it hurts

    I'm really glad I finally had the guts to do it. Yeah it did hurt, like somebody pinched you really, really, really hard, but then I just kept thinking about what it meant to me. And Jason was so nice too and I felt 100% safe around him. It all happened really fast though. Like one moment it hurt like hell and the next it kinda felt really good and then it's done.

    But you know what weirds me out? The fact that somebody I am considerably close to did the exact same thing on the same day. It's quite disgusting really, cause now it doesn't feel as special and personal as it used to. It was supposed to be my thing. My moving on. But then coincidence had to mess it all up and I feel like its just plain retarded. 15th of July isn't the day I did it. It's now the day we did it. Urgh.
    Maybe I'm making a big deal out of nothing really but... dang. I really wished I had done it earlier.

    I think that's the only thing I regret.

    But that aside, I am feeling on top of the world at the moment. Like it just reminds me what I've been through and how much I've moved forward. So every single time I doubt myself, it's there to make me stick my chin up, suck it all in, and smile in the face of the enemy.

    Ps. To my dearest friends who've been really supportive even though some of you thought it was a bad idea....thank you. It really means a lot to me.

  • Pre-U?

    That's what my mom is nagging me about. She wants me to quit Poly next year and fly over to the Land of Kangaroos to start my Veterinary bridging programme. She's been bringing it up recently, but I never did take them seriously.

    I take it as a joke that she wants me to just say goodbye to life Singapore and settle back in Australia (for 4-5 yrs?). Like I'll automatically have mates down under just cause we're connected by Facebook. I've been in Singapore for close to 10 years now. A decade is a lot. People change, I know cause you can see it all over FB. And lodging? And how am I going to fit all my stuff into my luggage?
    And what about my beloved darling? What about all my friends in Sg? What am I going to do without them? And my neighbour! I'll be leaving him behind ):

    It was a joke to me until we talked about it this morning. I hope that she's just exploring alternatives.

    But the thought of living independently in Australia thrills me. Me. All alone. In Australia.
    Hell yeah!!
    Free natural beaches, surf-worthy waves, lower paranoia, skeletal possibility of hearing the words "CB" "LJ" "KNN" and etc. Girlfriend magazines at cheaper prices, COTTON ON.
    Oh and not forgetting the HAMs!

    Gah if this really is true, I'll be damn bi-polar.

  • Interesting quote I found:

    The American Standard translations orders men to triumph over sin, and you can call sin ignorance... The King James translation makes a promise in "Thou shalt,' meaning that men will surely triumph over sin. But the Hebrew word, the word timshel- "Thou mayest'- that gives a choice. It might be the most important word in the world. That says the way is open. That throws it right back on a man. For if "Thou mayest'- it is also true that "Thou mayest not."

  • Happy Birthday XR! <3

    Facebook isn't allowing me to upload the pictures so I'll do a photoblog! A picture says a thousand words anyway. And I have 100+ pictures, which equals too about 10,000 words. I'm taking the whole morning to do this so, damn you facebook! (Btw I've tried the simple uploader on FB too but its not working either...zzz)


    At Manhattan's


    Iris with her classic pose, hence the sepia.


    Only $9.90 guys! Worth every calorie.


    I had pasta ($12.90) because I already had fish for 'recess'.
    & Do I look like a Koala to you? (Caroline don't answer)


    I love their fries!


    Choose your dip


    There's calamari, prawns and mussels. I is very happy.




    "Ah ya I don't want to use the fork and spoon anymore, I'll just use my hands."

    Grr Xanga's photo uploader works well but the peektures are taking forever to load. So I'll just blog mid-photoblog. Yesterday was fun. Hwee Ping, Felicia and I went up to the library to waste away our 2-hrs break. We ended up watching The Back-Up Plan on my laptop. Queue awkward, funny "love scene". We weren't using headphones since TP's library isn't exactly silent and serene to begin with, and I think I kinda freaked out too much to think about turning down the volume. So you can imagine how many heads turned our direction when J-Lo had... a little piece of heaven. Btw, by saying that I freaked out, I meant that I was laughing away too hysterically to think at the moment. Actually we were all too hysterical to do anything.

    Then I skipped HAP lecture (I don't think that I know it all, but it's really waste of time to sit in 1hrs listening to the lecture pronounce words from our notes) and rushed to Vivo to get my darling poochy's yeast treatment. Not cheap for just a spray and shampoo. I am starting to think that vets actually do earn a lot of money...

    And then I rushed home to teach my maid how to bathe my dog and yada yada, and rushed out to meet Iris and Birthday Girl Xuan Rong for dinner. I was in such a frenzy that I left Xr's present at home -.- Typical me, I don't know why I can't seem to remember to bring birthday prezzies on time.
    We reserved a table at Astons but not everyone was on time and they only entertain full-attendance. So we settled for Manhattan's at PS!
    Delishh.

    Then we walked to Marina Sq to collect my cheque and on the way we were very helpful Singapore Citizens to a bunch of tourists.






    Either Iris/ Xr mentioned that our present ah-peks had very nice bods in the past. HA HA HA. I think they look kinda gross... skeletons with abs... 


    Walked through CHIJMES just for fun ;)




    Iris the cute goldfish ^ ^

    I don't really like the new manager of Desigual MSQ, he's so unfriendly. But I got to say goodbye to Abel (his last day is on Monday) and invited me to party with the rest later on. I'll miss Abel. A lot. He's like a big brother/sister/brosis. He looked out for me when I was working at Desigual and although he's gay, he's a good influence to look up to.


    I love Sales too :D

    We went up to the veranda outside the food court (such nice scenic views of the Durian Jackfruit, Marina Bay Sands & pretty city lights at night!) just to chill and wait for the others ie. JY, Amanda & Glenda. I got addicted to Xr's new iPhone. On the one and only Tap Tap. I'm very much re-considering getting a BB now. If only BB had Tap Tap...
    JY and Amanda finally appeared (already 9-plus) which triggered the cam-whore fest. I think we spreaded the cam-whore lovin' to the others around us because soon after they followed suit!


    Beautiful bracelet from sweetheart.




    Whazzup homehhs.


    Hello Kity is kawaii~!


    iPhone addicts


    Joining the club... I was playing some water slide game. Only managed to reach level 6 > <

    Glenda joined us close to 10pm, and we went to Macs to eat cause JY was hungry. But Mac was full house inside-out so we went down to BK. I told them that I didn't know how much I'll miss them until Poly started. It gets quite hard sometimes during the days when you feel like nobody really knows you enough to understand, and you don't know them enough to care. And you just feel... singular. Amongst everyone/ your own passe, you feel singular.
    With MG though, I feel whole. Don't know how to explain this but. I thank school days and rough patches and high moments and all that bonding through teacher-dissing.


    Heee sneak peek ;)

    Oh Xanga just told me that I can't upload anymore cause I've reached the limit.
    Grreat.
    Rest of the pictures are on facebook (thank god!)

    We left around 11 plus and they all had to go homez cause it was late. I decided that I was not in the mood for partying so I didn't go for the Desigual crew clubbing after all. Instead, I walked all the way to Clarke Quay with Iris. And then took the last bus home.



    At some bridge... the one opposite Clarke Quay.

    On the way home some car pulled up and some guy rolled down the windows and said that his friend thought I was hot?! I peered in to see who his friend was hoping it could possibly be the lovely neighbour of mine but it was too dark so I went on my way to the lift. The car overshot me though and they made this u-turn and stopped where I was. I tried looking in again and. And. And. And.
    OMFG NEIGHBOUR.

    !!!
    !!!

    I was not very sure if he was the 'friend' so did the stupidest thing. I walked away to the lift like I couldn't be bothered. I am quite mad for wasting such a rare opportunity. But that totally made my day awesomer (if it could get any better!).  

    Even my sister couldn't ruin the good mood I was in. She did get on my nerves a lot last night/today morning though. But hee I was happyhannah92.

  • Insert smile

    K, I think my xanga has been a tad too depressing with all my whines and pines. I'm not like that in real life.

    My family (dad, mom, bro, maid) flew to Penang last Thurs. I met ET for dinner at Vivo and then we headed to CQ and walked around a bit (saw some sexy salsa party thing right smack in the middle and got our pictures taken by some guy covering the event) and finally settled in Yello Jello. The band kinda was so-so. We had their house specials which was a really weird combination of jelly and cocktail. It wasn't bad, but I don't think I'm going to have that again.

    Some random 30+ guy kept asking us to join his table and when we didn't he stuck around ours. I thought he was a little gay at first, but then uh. Maybe not. Totally forgot his name but he introduced his other 30+ friend, John. So he kept talking and talking and I was trying to be as polite as possible. ET ignored him and he wasn't so happy cause he asked why she's so -.- at him. So I told him that she couldn't hear him cause the band was so loud, hoping that he'll get the idea that conversation is pointless and give up and go back to his table far far away, but it backfired. It made him stick around more, shouting into ET's poor ears going "CAN YOU HEAR ME? CAN YOU HEAR ME?" every minute.

    Then he invited us to join him at some party at Le Noir. And I told him okay okay okay so he'll bug off but then he just kept coming over and asking us to join his table. "I'm friends with the band" he said. Like who gives a shit the band is pretty old too like about 27+++. And then he went to take pictures with us with ET's cam and then his.
    Creep right.

    Oh ya I think he mentioned that he's on FB too. If anything we have his peekchaa with us. His 30-year-old, drunk face picture. The last straw was when the waitress came over saying that he offered to buy us drinks. I really liked the waitress so I smiled and said that we're good before sprinting out.
    Then we tried going into Zirca (more age-appropriate people) but then ET came from USA so no student pass ): We went back to my place and watched The OC till we couldn't fight off the booze snooze.

    That was just Thurs.

    Friday I walked from Great World to CQ with my sister and then hung around there till 11.30 before we met ET for Eclipse. After the movie we cabbed back and K-O'd.

    Sat & Sun was youth day stuff. Not very exciting but I liked the dance a lot. And hospitality was (Y)!

    :P
