sep 22 06

cain-ed! t's night out before her bday celebrations. yeah that messed her plans. everyone was drunkaroos. good thing i didnt get too wasted. had work the next day. YIKES. i hate my early morning starts.

insomnia

so anyone who reads my blog will notice a common theme. alcohol. last night was my first fri night back in singapore. and the fact that it was my first trip to yan's the butter factory w my girlfriends just spelt trouble in bold. hmmmmmmm. you know what. there's actually not much to report considering i forgot abt half the night. BLACK OUT alert. yikessssssssssss. i lost my cell phone. it was my extra one w the american sim card inside so i'm not that upset. still have not told stel abt it. think she would FLIP, considering i had already lost the battery to my current cell phone. how did that happen? don't look at me. anyway, after getting BUTTER-ed, we went for karaoke. ok i rem being there but i don't remember much of what went on. alcohol is the devil. yeah i think my last memory was abt 3. and i was out till i think 6 or 7? i don't know. ok whatever. just pity the brain. was just trying to rem what i drank. had 2 shots with dione to start the night. then had some vodka soda. then i got a bottle of whiskey cos i miss drinking whiskey and green tea. then aston bought me 2 shots. there was sparkling wine involved. k downed some whiskey straight up. fuck this. why bother. too much too fast. that's all i can say.

yeah and stel forced vivien to wake me up at 1pm. eeeeeeeeks. not good. well i was fine when i woke up even though i had to force myself to eat cos stel would get upset if she saw i was hungover. so i ate alot. and i couldnt go back to sleep cos i had a massage appointment. ok i thought a massage would be nice but hells no. felt like puking after that. goddddddd. it was bad. whatever, i got through the day. had dinner at hu cui. or is it called fei cui. i can't remember. ok the permanent damage has started to set in. whoops.

went to pat's house after dinner. sigh. she's leaving on mon. how sad.

spent the night on msn after till 5am. what a nimbus. wasted sleep time talking to shirly and annage. haha.

time to get cleaned.

cowabanga amigos.

re: alcoholage

so slight correction, we finished 3 packs of ciggarettes, not 2, between us.

dinner last night was great. crystal jade siao long paos. DIG them. my rgs crew was there. was good seeing them . everything's pretty much the same. a few job switches here and there. jiali got her eyelashes permed. haha. they looked cute. oh, pat is moving to china. that made me realize that we're starting to be adults. not sure why.

met up with ned and serene and andy at coffee club after. serene gets married next year. we are indeed adults now. the topic of marriage isn't just a conversation piece, it's reality. meet yan at balcony after. 24 hour bars should be banned.

today was pretty much uneventful. massage. jacqui for tea. mum at airport. dinner at hua you or however you spell it. love that place. back home.

knackerville.....

alcoholage

yikes. the liver might be in serious danger. met up with yan last night. sobriety fails when we meet. between us we had at least 4 jugs. thank god the mum was out of town. she would have freaked out at my 730 home arrival. make that a FREAK with a P-H! let's see the damage:
alcohol: 2 jugs + a glass each + a beer
cigarretes: 93343 sticks. i'm not joking. we finished 2 packs, excluding the packs we already had. think if i smoke anymore i'm going to be a fire hazard.
bill: i don't want to think
sleep: 4ish hours

oh well. whatevs. had a great great time. was awesome talking to her about shit. yan, you rock sista.

ok so before i forget. i watched 4 absolutely great movies on my flight home. so if you read this and you're taking sq 21 from newark to singapore, please watch:

singapore dreaming

los 2 lados de la cama
for horowitz

ok off i go now. i'm proud of myself. 2 blog entries in 2 days. PROGRESS. pat on my back.

alcoholage. eeeeks.

vitamin D

finally. a whole calendar later, i'm back home. its been the longest i've been away. i smell the humidity, i itch at the ezcema, i see the greenery, i hear the accent, i taste the food and, of course, i meet the loved ones. being home hasn't really sunk in. everything's been happening too fast. damn it. my life needs to stop being such a big rush. arrrghhhh.

ok just saw myself in the mirror. WOW eyebags. like wow. uh, hello. why should i be surprised. i prob averaged 5 hours of sleep or less over the last week. we need to have 40 hour days. fuck mondays. fuck reality tv shows. fuck the internet. fuck eating. fuck all the poisons. fuck emotions. fuck work. fuck friends(hahahaha. yeahhhhhhhhhhhh. nah this one's not supposed to be part of the list but thought it funny to say) ok i need to stop. but you get my drift. there just isn't enough time. guess this means einstein's theory of relativity is true; the older we get, every second of our life becomes more and more insignifcant that time just seems to pass by faster. ok so i really shouldnt be writing more of this blog. i have the long messy hair, the pasty white skin, the eye bags. now i just need to get anorexic before i nail heroine chic. which means i should go out now and get some freaking sun.

singapore. word.

fanta fanta, don't you wanta

it's that time of the year

so i lied. date is 12nov. a week has passed from my birthday. and about 3 weeks since i last posted something. yikes. KEEP UP WITH IT YOU LAZY BASTARD. i really need to, think it's the only way i'm ever going to remember what's been going on in my life.
so here goes. 5nov. i turned a full 24. shit. that means i'm just abt 25 and it means that i'm 30 if you round up my age. eeeeeeeeeeks. 5 more years and i'm supposed to have a kid, either by adoption or by IVF, or even better, a surrogate mum. yes dont laugh. that's my goal for now. i want a kid so badly.
lets go back one day. 4nov. acutally rewind to 3nov. grace's birthday. had dinner at this aussie place called eight mile creek. yes the name's a bit of a lost cause. thank god the food was deeeeee-lish. but when is food not? ok anyhoos, so after that we go to purple, this place that i went to a couple of weeks ago. good music, small bar. and of course being grace's birthday, alcoholic hedonism was bound to happen. let's see. wine at dinner. 2 drinks. 6 shots within an hour. 3 more drinks after that? so much for an easy night. we proceed to element after. i like this place. it's a little more grunge, music's good. but it just stinks quite a bit from everyone's dreadlocks. yeah so you get the gist abt the scene. KILL ME PLEASE!!! after that i had a chiken cutlet sandwich!! that's not the end of it. vicks came over so we got like pop corn and nachos from the deli. ok i'm starting not to like this 24-hr deli business. time of snooze... 6am
4nov. 10am. phone's ringing. lee's calling. she's complaining abt her night. got too drunk. puked and etc. lee, dont worry, we've all been there. talk for abt an hour. go back to bed. 1130: phone's rining. it's elaine. decide that i should try sleeping instead. so i dont pick up the call. 12ish-1, i'm semi awake. jacqui calls. she's arrived. arrange to meet in soho. walk for a bit. then we meet up w lee. go to the mercer hotel, borat was there. yeah thought it was him but he looked diff so wasnt sure. then i saw his gf, i.e. isla fisher, next to him. that's when i realized it was him. ok i can't be bothered to type about what happened over the next 2 hours, but just for my memory: yakitori, ginger!
k so ffwd to 11pm. get to double happiness. place is packed. and there's no recception downstairs. how's everyone's going to find me? well, thank goodness everyone did. had soooooooooo much fun. ten million thanks to everyone who showed up and made it a FUN-tastic night. too bad i dont remember some of it. BLACKOUT alert. eeeeeeks. jon had to remind me of some of the stupid stuff i did. like public pee-tles and more. ha. yes, i do remember talking to some guy who claimed to be from CMU too, while in the bathroom. thanks for bringing that up. i hate blackouts! so is it really that bad to take a p on the streets at like 4am in the morning when no one's around and i can't hold it in? back to reality, so we all head back to my place. amylee comes. she's pretty drunk and i guess she still wanted to hang after running off to some other bar with pamilyn and cate and co. managed to convince jacqui to come over too even though it was like 4am. haha. that idiot slept right through alarms and my 238439 phone calls to wake her up. so much for painting the town red while visiting new york. shups and the rest try making ramen. dont think they were too successful. everyone was drunk. haha. thank goodness i didnt have the munchies. i saved on 300 cals!! yeahhhhhhhhhhh. amylee and jacqui stay over. hmmm. to sum it all, great great night. too little sleep.

some evidence:
























like cutest picture EVER





























NB: some photos didnt make the cut cos i looked a) too fat (and i already look fat in many of the pictures so go figure how bad the others turned out) b) too drunk c) just looked bad. so sorry to the rest of the photos

5nov. dimsum gogo!!! get waken up by amylee and jacqui talking. i want sleep but the thought of dimsum, tgtbt. (too good to be true) go for dimsum. eat eat eat. food coma starts to sink in plus was knackered. so we all decide it's time to head home for a nappers. yeahhhh. food + sleep, and in that order! can life get any better? decide i need to get a bolster when i go home. 9pm. meet jacks and maizy for yakitori. elaine and jessie joins us. elaine was on a roll that night. everything she said was funny. i give alcohol the credit. go to cabin after to play some pool. lee plus alex plus nick(i think) join us. lee's nickname for the night - queen cock. one of elaine's comedic concoctions. found it fucking hilarious. but the funniest moment had to be lee's center-parted hair, so that her vision wldnt be blocked. hahahahahahhahaahahahha. ok too much rambling. plus i think i've exceeded the word count for this blog. enough already.
