Lee Jun Ki

oh no... i'm seriously addicted to korean dramas again. i'm hooked onto 'my girl' now. staring lee dong wook, lee da hae and lee jun ki. OBVIOUSLY gong chan is going in end up with yoo rin and gong chan is like the 'bai ma wang zi' or 'prince charming' in the show n i think he's really cute n all n i really really like gong chan cos he's so sweet n charming but i can't help but to be slightly attracted to the sub-lead, jeong woo.

my first impression of him??? girly looking.. bahahahaha. he seriously has very feminine features but his voice is a total different thing. his voice is super manly...

somehow, while liking gong chan, i kinda like jeong woo too.. he's the typical sub-lead: like the girl for some weird reason, wants to fight for the girl, willing to do anything for the girl including being used as a substitute, eventually gives up the girl cos she truly loves the lead. oh well. but jeong woo's kinda charming. i dunno why. maybe it's his colgate smile. hmm..

today, i watched a show he acted in, the one that made lee jun ki famous; the king and the clown.

in the show, lee jun ki plays gong gil, a feminine entertainer. he's like a he-she u know what i mean... it's alike shakespearean times when a young boy plays a female character. yup. so he's somewhat like a gay in the show... his acting is commendable. no wonder he bagged so many awards.

but the show really shook my masculine jeong woo impression of him. now i'm kinda uncertain. he can sure act well man but is he really gay? it's just weird... i dunno. he's so manly as jeong woo.... aww man. depressing. i hope jeong woo is who jun ki's more like.. as in.. like straight? a guy... haha! rache!! u look a little like him!!!


see! he's cute too! =P jeong woo shi!!!!
well... if he's gay, many girls' hearts would be shattered man.

ps*for pple who don't know what i'm talking about... it's ok...

FELIZ NAVIDAD!!!

WHHEEEEEE!!!! its.....

santa and frost wishes everyone: Feliz navidad. =)

starting up santa's workshop

i've been watching loads and loads of tv recently hence the pause in blogging cos i found sth else to entertain me. haha. couch "potats" i am. watching jin zhi yu nue as i'm typing.

i really am a sloth! i have not even posted about the green team sentosa trip!!! i'll do it some other time.

today was ms wang's farewell. shoe, lilian, quek, emily(who wasn't with us physically but spiritually) gave ms wang 5 roses. yellow: kindness, pink: love, orange: joy, champagne: beauty, red/pink: we love her n will miss her! =)
to ms wang: thanks for all u've done for choir n of course for being such a great part of my life in tk. be it my choir teacher who has been looking out for the whole choir every competition, public performance or overseas trip. be it my ipw teacher who treated us many times after each hike around s'pore. be it 3c'05's form who has been really caring and approaching, alike a friend. =) for everything u've done, THANK YOU MS WANG!!!

it's been pouring buckets of water recently and it truly is freezing cold!! anyways, shoe, dor n i went to bras besah to get materials for christmas presents. we were soaking wet by the time we reached out destination. brrrrrr....

gua sar lang,
jui ting gia kio jee kee sio ho sua...
ho lok tua....
gua lai zao gor di, di lai zao gor gua...

translation...
3 of us
together we hold on to 2 umbrellas
rain very heavy
i take care of u, u take care of me.

shoe n quek bought stuff at art friend. then we went to popular at bras besah which was 5 levels high n guess what!!! i finally bought canvas!!! yay!!!! sth i've always wanted to buy. it wasn't as expensive as i thought it would be! less than $10! yayayayay.
i cut my toe somewhere in the process getting all excited at seeing at the art stuff. some kind hearted lady gave me a piece of tissue cos my toe was bleeding n she even wanted to give me a plaster but shoe had already given one to me n thanks to her, my toe's healing well now. =)

i'm stuck on the new korean drama My Girl acted by Lee Dae Hae and Lee Dong Wook.
LEE DONG WOOK IS SUPER SUPER CUTE!!! n guess what! he's born on the same day as my sister!!! 6th nov, but 3 years earlier. he's christian. hai, what more can u ask in a guy... *melts* come to think of it, he looks a bit like Kim Jung Hoon (Yul from Goong) they're both cute thought Lee Dong Wook's more manly. =P

yul!!!!


and this, is dongwook!! he's SOOOO cute!!!!

*droools* i wanna marry a guy like him... =P did i mention he's 185m?

talking about the present before recapping history.

It was a very very very cold Sunday evening while a teenage girl decides to go online to blog about what's been going on in her life. She's freezing and she's very tan now thanks to a beach outing she went to the day before (tan to the extend of being almost burnt but not burnt yet).

The movements of her head are restricted due to a bad sleeping posture the night before. She can only turn her head to face the right, but not the left. Her body aches terribly and she feels an impending need to type out her inner thoughts before she bursts from keeping so much to herself. Even a girl can't take that much, the constant thoughts that persist their stay in her head, thoughts that are not neccessarily sweet or nice, thought that are just provoking and unwanted for these thoughts complicate, confuse, and aggravate her exhaustion.

She taps her keyboard, head swimming with thoughts, but uncertain what to say on her virtual diary. She is well aware that her virtual diary is nothing secret. Anyone has access to what you write on your virtual diary, also better known as a blog.

One must be careful of what they say nowadays. Walls have ears, you are never alone...

Finally, she starts typing out her first sentence.

Dear Diary, I am tired.

She continues typing as words now flow freely and make they way out through her nimble fingertips as they tap the keyboard at a fast pace. The pace increases as her emotions boil at what she types. Each tap releases that wee-bit of tightness bounding her chest, each tap poking at the sea of emotions in her gut.

Tired of thinking of him so much. Tired of giving myself hope that perhaps someday, if I were good enough, he would return. I keep telling myself to move on. Move on already. I have wasted enough energy on him. There are still many fishes out there and I will not let myself stop fishing just because the one fish I have ever reeled in got lost back into that vast ocean. I will not wait like a fool upon that fish's return because there are better catches out there. The only thing is that that fish is my first catch; one to be remembered. My self-persuasions seem like empty words in my brain now.

Yet, I don't need to depend on him. Maybe it's just my hormones. Maybe I don't truly feel for him. Yes. It must be it. So I don't truly like him after all.

She smiled to herself upon making that statement. But her smile soon faded as she knew she was only lying. At that point of time, she would rather lie than to admit and suffer emotionally. But she could not force herself into believing her lie. It simply wasn't possible...

Who am I kidding. I have talked to Anastasia about it and to Belle... But the advice they gave is alot simpler said than done. "Give up" they told me, "Give up" I would love to. But how come I can't seem to accomplish it?
So maybe it takes time. How much time? How much time before I can actually move on? I feel so alone now. So in need of a soulmate. I am so very tired. So very tired...
I doubt he even knows I still feel for him. I was the cruel one who instigated the seperation, liked another guy, left him bare and empty. But I never forgot him. Does he not understand that I never really stopped liking him? Does he not get it? Why is it so difficult for him to see?
I know why. It's because he's eyeing some other girl with a pretty face, a sweet smile, delicate features and who is thin, slim and all that a guy would want in a girl. Who am I compared to her? Nothing. It's like comparing dirt dust to pixie dust. They are both dust but it is obvious which is better.

Her heart hurt bad at the harsh and painful reality of things. She knew nothing could ever be the same between her and that male. It hurt her to know. God seemed to know how she felt as it started to rain outside. Light drizzles turned quickly into a thunderstorm. The sky was a pool of darkness as the wind wailed long and loud.

I wish I had never been so silly as to give you up like that. I should have known better than to be so stupid and naive. But it's all too late. There's no point in bringing up the past. I have already crossed the point of no return.
Actually, I have moved on. I was slighly attracted to a guy I met rather recently. He's handsome, funny and nice. But upon looking closer, I realised that he resembled you a great deal. Similar eyes, tan skin, sharp nose, steady shoulders, fit body. Not only physically was he alike you, you and him seem to share similar character traits such as the way you speak, the way you are rather kept to yourself, yet wild and fun at the same time, the way I melt in the pools of your eyes when we actually establish direct eye-contact. And also, like you, I don't think I will ever have a chance with him...

She rubbed her hands to create warmth and smiled sadly at her computer screen before concluding her diary's post.

To everyone out there:
Please think carefully before doing anything. You do not want to have regretted doing it for once lost might mean never found. It is only when you have lost something so precious, that you know it's worth. So cherish what you have. Be thankful, be gracious. Thank God for giving it to you in your daily prayers. Thank your loved ones for their love. Remind them you love them everyday so you will not regret not doing so when they have somehow slipped away.




Roo to everyone: To all the people I love out there, I LOVE YOU SO SO SO SO SO MUCH!!! EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU IS IMPORTANT TO ME AND WITHOUT YOU, LIFE WOULD BE MEANINGLESS.
loving you all the capacity of my heart; my family, my relatives, my friends, people who have touched my life in one way or another. Thank you. =)

a sequence of events

i wanted to blog yesterday but got no energy n cos i'm such a sloth, so i shall blog now.

14th dec

the morning started off very slow. i went to tutor my cousin. gave him a test which he scored 79.5/100 for. quite good la.. at least an improvement but didn't reach his target yet so he has to work harder..

went home to get ready before the auditions!!!
i was waiting for the rest to come, practice one more round before the real thing. still not nervous then.

practised n i sorta screwed up the piano part for 'u n me' cos i was getting a little freaked out (note a little) but 'true' went pretty well. we finally fixed the bridge n sang the whole song well for once without stopping!! then at 4.45 which was pretty late we set off.

it was raining so quek, chew n i shared an umbrella while the 2 guys shared one. took 608 which was super bumpy, not to mention slow. almost threw up upon arrival at suntec bus-stop. from there, we still had to cross over to marina square then to the esplanade..

each time we were nearer, the more freaked out marc n i were getting... "ahhhh!!!!!"

and then, we arrived............

DENG DENG DENG DENG! *spooky music plays in the background*

we walked in n the auditions were rather immediate..
we had a sound test first, so i had to sing the chorus, momo played the guitar. i was really nervous n i tried sitting on the metal bar stool, but my butt slipped off though it wasn't very obvious n i tried to pretent nothing happened.
LILIAN, CHEW N QUEK!! THANKS FOR SUPPORTING US!!!

they weren't alot of pple there but i think it's sorta just stage fright.

so i sang first...
*sing sing sing sing...*
"do u... want me to?
cos.......... "
(alamak!!! i forgot the lyrics!!)
"sorry." said i.
(went on to the chorus)

(at the bridge)
momo n i screwed up cos we weren't synchronised.

*sing sing sing sing*
"all my life i've waited.....this is true..."
(end)

and it was done!!! =) marc's turn, i didn't dare to play the piano cos my hands couldn't move.
marc did really well. i was certain he was super nervous too cos even i felt nervous for him.

then the verdict.
the bald miseour who own's the cafe talked to us and gave us comments on how to improve and all.
he said we needed to polish up so he told us to meet him once more for another audition with our 2 songs and 1 more song. it'll probably be next week or the week after next.

waaaaa... i was super relieved it was over. we didn't get in immediately, but we will!! haha. hopefully. we're only 16!! young n still learning. no harm done. =)

then we decided to grab our dinner.
but we were distracted by the make-a-wish-on-a-ball counter.

so we decided to scribble all our wishes on the ball.
we took up one whole ball!! but its a fair trade cos it was 6 of us->1 ball. =)

scribble scribble scribble...

us scribbling...

scribbled out wishes.

wish ball and us! =)

ball toss!!

up up and away!!!

the wish balls are supposed to be thrown into the marina bay river during the countdown and let our wish balls float aimlessly, freely on the open water. =) i like the idea of that.

after spending much time writing and writing our wishes even when we ran out of them and cooked them up on the spot, we finally decided to go eat at marina square food court but momo had to leave first cos he was meeting his friends.

we went to visit fann at cedele for the first time but alas, she left work early that day... =(

dinner time -MAKAN!

i ate shui jiao mian.. yum. chew n i shared a large coke from mcs.

lilian n quek had to leave early so it was just marc, chew n i.

we went to Toys R Us to get chew's brother his christmas present -night vision googles..
i knew we were gonna have alot of fun at Toys R Us the moment we stepped in cos at that moment, i felt sth drip on my head. the air con was leaking... how lucky of me. marc kept laghing bout it.

upon searching n searching n searching for the googles... (we didn't really search tht much. we were like playing n playing n playing. Toys R Us unleashes the inner child in us =) )

we finally asked a sales assistant n he guided us to where it was. erm... chew said her bro said it was $12++.. but it was $19.90 (only for Toys R Us members somemore!!) n chew wasn't even a member so she would have to pay $29.90 for them... O.o

she didn't want to.
"who wants to pay frikin' 30 bucks for some stinking night vision googles thing that might not even work."
"if u wanna see in the dark just turn on the light la!!!"

later she felt guilty so she admitted, "i'm such a cheapo sister."
bahaha. chew. u aren't cheapo la. ur a nice sister who takes the time to hunt for a good christmas present for her little bro. =)
being a nice sister, we set out on a new quest led by chew to get her bro some miscellenous items along the way while she kept babbling "he likes turtles!"

and.... of course we played along the way to find her bro a new christmas present!!! =P

marc is easily fascinated by the wonders of childrens' toys.

ok la.... so were chew n i.

acting pretty. we couldn't put them on cos they were obviously too small n we'd probably just rip them apart of sth.

marc n i fighting with broomsticks and dustpans. (note: marc isn't that much taller than me! it's fake it's fake!!! he was tip-toeing. cheater.)

now this is funny. marc used some claw thing to pinch chew.. bahahaha. aww... cute little chubby chew. alliteration

curious passerbys and sales pple were looking at us like we're woodbridge patients on loose or sth...

look! joanne finally learns to play the piano on the "my first piano" piano.

marc and his new found pet pony.

marc in action as he liberates his pony.

and then we decided to get a present for a friend. a good friend if not we wouldn't have persisted in getting the present.. the sales pple must really think we're mad exchanging n exchanging notes for coins.

hmmm i wonder what this is..... super expensive present if u ask me.

concluding our Toys R Us visit with a picture taken near the gingerbread house!

but not the end of our shopping journey yet. we went to fox to look at nice clothes. after finding a nice blouse n chew changing time n time again in the changing room with poor marc being so bored he locked himself and sat on the floor of one changing room, we decided to go home...

wait!!! still does not end yet. chew n i went to siglap mcs to eat super. she ate a chocolate sundae while a ate a vanilla ice cream cone n we shared a cup of ice lemon tea. talked n ate. =) a wonderful way to conclude the day. some weird guys added to the event part of the day when they said hi when chew n i were standing near the traffic light, waiting. we think we know what they thought we were.

CRAZY AR?!?! bak jiu tak stamp lor. hello. sling bag, long sleaves. they said sorry sorry when we turned to stare at them with a 'HUH?' look. losers.

other than tht, it was a beautiful day.

today, i woke up in the afternoon. haha. i can't help it, i was super exhausted. then i continued reading my library book bout the Quinn brothers. finished reading about cameron who's super hot. ethan is so sweet!!! but seth is my favourite =)
(i know u don't know what i'm talking about.)

going to eat dinner and catch the final episode of project runway! tml's the sentosa trip for green team! =) can't wait.

conscience speaking

i think i've finally found out what it feels like to want sth u can't have.
people always want things they can't have...

it's quite a sad kinda feeling. like u know u can never have it, yet u want so badly to have it.

not ever one's like teddy geiger

i'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence i have
and cannonball into the water
i'm gonna muster every once of confidence i have
for u i will

u always want what u can't have
but i'm going to try
i'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence i have
for u i will..

i think it's really sweet if a guy did tht for u... hmm.. i salute pple who do "muster every ounce of confidence" they have to do sth they really wanna do even if it's crazy.

i can't do tht. i don't have such guts. so what do u do if u can't move forward?

u retreat like a coward, raise the white flag n u move that ass of urs as fast n far away as possible like ur life depended on it.

(dorea think this is funny so she asks me to add this in: bimbos would try to find a corner in a round room..
if u do not think this is funny it's fine. *whispers to u* dor's a bimbo see... only bimbos get bimbo jokes... =P pls dun kill me quek.. pleASSEee. i dun wanna die so young...)


hmm... but i'm not all tht cowardly. here goes nth..
it never did end for me since 27/2/2004 and long before that.. i still do... ='(

*ps: doesn't matter if u don't understand what i'm talking about. cos it's my conscience speaking.

stocking up santa's bag of presents

christmas is around the corner!! yay!! i think it's my favourite festive season of all. all the pretty snowflakes, snowpeople, snowball fights, ice-skiing, ice-sleighing, making snow angels, warm fire places, figgy puddings, roasted turkey, lots n lots of chocolates, singing of christmas carols, company of others who enjoy the season, exchanging of gifts... CHRISTMAS!!!!

sadly, all the snow part doesn't happen in S'pore. the only time i truly experienced that was in sec2, the choir trip to prague... =) one of the most memorable moments ever. i shall not side track.

today was the beginning of my christmas shopping. my sister brought me to IKEA!!! not the tampines one everyone's gng. the alexander one. =) they're the same if u ask me. sell the same things don't they?

wow... bought n bought n bought. stocking up all the materials for the annual handmade presents. =) it's nicer to receive handmade gifts no? my present list is super long. i feel like my mom.. she would be santarina if there was such a person. oh man. every christmas, my dad would make loads of noise about the messy state of their room cos the floor would be covered with wrapping paper, ribbons, various items, cards, rolls of scotchtape n all the christmasy stuff. i kinda like her weird tradition ways. my mom's a very generous woman. she spends alot buying christmas gifts partially cos she's a shopaholic, but also cos she enjoys giving. that's part of the spirit of christmas isn't it?

It's better to give than to receive.

hmm.. maybe tht's why i don't mind buying christmas presents. though christmas is the season to go broke and slurge, it's also the season to be jolly n bring the jolly to people!

i shall not say what i'm getting for everyone... DUH..
actually, i still dont quite know... but i'm working on it!

sooo... i'll be going on "hibernation".
spend time at home, in my room making the presents one by one.

oh.. n i gave up pursuing the wanting of my espanol jersey. cos it's not very practical cos it's expensive n how often would i wear it?!?! i'm trying to comfort myself here cos i do still dream of getting it but i'm too poor too. maybe someday when i have the money or if there are the fake ones. =P

ok... santa's elf shall start cracking! hohoho u all.

and HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAMANTHA LIM HUI SI! =)

tml's the audition!! ahh.. freaky!!

AFFIRMATIONS

yay!!!! we confirmed tht we will be going for the audition for the gig at the esplanade's art cafe on thursday!!!

practiced today n joanne came even though she said she didn't want to. =) awww... she's a big softie.

i'm gonna sing true by ryan crabera while marc's singing u and me. momo of course is our wonderful guitarist.

after our practice session, we decided to watch shrek 2. bahahaha.
it was lamely funny, yet it was kinda sweet n romantic when fiona gave up being a beautiful woman to be an ogre for shrek. =) the power of love man... and they lived happily ever after in the land of far far away. i thought the most hilarious part of the show was when pinocchio had to lie to save shrek.
"tell a lie!!!"
"like what??"
"say sth crazy like you're wearing ladies underwear."
"erm... i'm wearing ladies underwear.."
nth happens..
"omg.... are u wearing ladies underwear?"
"NO!!!"

nose grows..
"what type what type?!?!?!"

"it's a g-string!!!"

i love puss in boots.. awww... little kitty...
can't wait for shrek 3!

today we also confirmed sth else!!

Karaoke got me a leaky nose..... darn it.

*sniff sniff* dang

went out with my sister to sing at kbox yesterday!!!
it was fun! =) i mean when u can't reach the notes sometimes, everyone's just screaming and u can scream all u want without being arrested for excessive noise pollution or sth. yadayadada...

for once i got to sing the cranberries song, zombie? haha... didn't know the lyrics were so weird...
"they've got bombs and bombs..."

"IN YOUR HEAD!!! IN YOUR HEAD!!!!"

haha. cos we went for the after lunch pack from 2-7 (5hours of screaming), we didn't have lunch, only free flow snacks. so we ate only the nicer snacks like prawn crackers, sotong rings? erm.. the bee bee thing. no one ate the peanuts nor peas. so we threw the unwanted nuts into one container n get the other one refilled. repeat the process n u get alot of nice crackers. =D

oh ya. i wore dor's dorothy shoes there (white shoes with a little red) there. those pair of shoes haven't been worn in a long while, so i took them out to stretch them a little n guess what!!! I'VE GOT 2 BIG BIG BIG BLISTERS NOW!!! PAIN!!!!

can u imagine
walking with that home + rushing home to make it for so u think u can dance + no car to send u so u have to take public transport + ur house isn't exactly near the bus-stop + the bus-stop isn't exactly near the kbox either
= DESTRUCTION OF YOUR FEET

my poor feet. i feel ur pain. (literally)

i also got a flu after coming back from kbox.. hmmm... might be the waiter from cafe cartel who had flu n passed it to me!!!!! aiya... nvm la. not his fault.

just that now, my nose is like a never ending river. if only s'pore's water supply was like my nose now. never ending source of water.. =S
tht sounded gross.

2 lost posts: byebye kiddies n shopping n beach outing to being broke.

First things first. To Dorea Quek And Joanne Chew, my two bestest buds ever,
thank you for always being there for me when I feel down and out. Thank you for being the best friends anyone can ever have. Thank you for believing in me and being proud to be my friend. I can't express how grateful I am because I know I already have more than my share. =)

(darn it. the photo i wanted to post; us at the vsa camp n joanne holding sean's leaf spoilt!!! this always happens when i use my sister's com. the other time the prom pics, the pic i took with ngo spoilt. haiii... sadness overwhelms me. =( here's another nice pic anyway )



8th december

it was the last day of vsa camp. everyone was involved in the showcase of the camp. 2 groups would combine to perform a story since it was a story book camp (we didn't know it was till we received our vsa tee)
peterpan combined with cinderella to perform the little duck that said "HMPH!"
the story is er..... nvm. it's about a little duckling called emily who wasn't happy she was always in the middle so she went 'HMPH!' and stomping away when her bros n sisters in front would go 'QUAK!' while her bros n sisters behind her would follow in her lead. the story proceeds by her going forward to ask her oldest bro n sis if she could stand in front behind mother duck n they said yes generously so she was happy n every one was happy n everyone went 'QUAK!'
THE END.

janel was the little duckling, so all the befrienders had to help make sure the little kids did their thang. so basically, we had to quak along with them. shoe n i n christina cos our kiddies were ducks. joanne was a flower cos michelle was a flower. she just sat there n rot. hahaha
kamal n peiqi just needed to tell the other michelle n weikang to shake cos they were water.

it was quite fun la.. haha. dor n deb's group did the story of the boy with crumpled teess... they were nannies who went 'NANANANANA!!!'

fann's group did the story of the elephant n the tree where the trees n elephants were good friends.

the day was pretty much spent rehearsing n rehearsing.
finally, the performance.
the performance went pretty well n all the kiddies did their thang so it was all good.

then came the prize presentation ceremony n deborah won best befriender for her group n peiqi won best befriender for our group!!! yay!!! congratulations!!!

aaron (who doesn't remember me at all, the kid who drew super well n sang frosty the snowman when drawing but didn't know the lyrics n just sang lalala, the boy who does not know his befriender's name after 3 days) won best male camper!!! (he's still really cute even if he doesn't acknowledge me)

n guess who won best girl camper?

none other than JANEL!!!! SOOO SOOOO PROUD OF HER!!!
my little girl's all grown up. we met her older sister n her mother. her sister's super hot man... no kidding. anyway, i'm missing her loads even if she doesn't know my name n calls me oorroooo or fatcat which chew taught her to say, i really liked her. =)
hope to see u next year janel. =)

chew.roo.quek1.shoe.fann.quek2

after tht, fann, jo n i ate supper!!! roti prata, ice cream, pork ribs soup. yummm... =)

9th december

woke up early despite awaiting the good rest to go shopping with my family.

went to raffles city to shop.. aiyo, all the clothes in robinsons super expensive la.. not the sort of place a poor person like me can go. didn't buy much. my mom did all the shopping.

i got a brown patterned tee n a white esprit tee that said "rockin' fever". haha. cool shirt.

then we went to parkway to makan at siam kitchen. we saw ah poo there with his friend n so my sis n i msged him "very cold meh? u wearing jacket. have fun with your boyfriend! " haha he was looking for us..

then i went to the beach to meet e 4c crew n foreign talent-chew.

tandum-bike with jo again for a short while. aiyo... had problems at the beginning pilotting her. after awhile, got used to it so it was quite ok. cos my top was loose it kept dropping so i had to keep pulling it up to prevent obsene exposure of my chest. malu...

lazed around at the beach then marc dared us to climb the coconut tree to get a coconut.

bahaha! i tried n i failed. azmi could jump n touch the coconut cos he was so so tall. no fair.

so we girls hatched a plan... we shall support shaz in getting the coconut.

us holding shaz up.. hahha... like monkey climbing a tree..

i ate the one packet of mee goreng up then chew, marc n i set off to eat dinner at cafe cartel. (i've got a bottomless pit!)

joanne bet with me bus 13 wouldn't get us to cafe cartel. she lost the bet cos bus 13 did take us there (of course i would know since i take bus 13 quite a lot of times!!!) somehow, she didn't do her part in losing the bet. she was supposed to be thrown in the drain. CHEATER!!! lesson learned: do not trust a chewster.

marc n i shared a plate of chicken lagsana while chew ate a plate of herself, bbq pork burger.

her burger didn't turn out to look like the picture n after complaining n fussing over it for 15 minutes, n confirming it was the right order, she decided to eat it n she liked it alot. chew, this is all ur fault.

then we ordered desert which was brownies with ice cream!!

then the bill came, total was $32. jo n i forked out our money but guess what!!!! MARC ONLY HAD $3.50 LEFT IN HIS WALLET!!!! to be exact, it was $3.55. we started to panic... oh no... maybe we had not enough money to pay so we frantically searched our wallets for more money. after pouring out our notes, i chipped $14, chew chipped $12, marc ALL HIS MONEY!!! we only had $29.50!!!!

ARGHH!!!!!!!

thank GOD chew always carries alot of coins. we fished out of her saver purse, 1 $1 coin, 3 50 cent coins, 2 20 cent coins and 1 10 cent coin, summing up to $32!!! yay!!! just nice. oh man... if we had no money we might have to clean plates to clear out debt. either that or we'll send joanne to run like the wind to her house to pull money out of anywhere.

marc threw his 5cent coin away n said "to hell with 5cents"

cos of tht, marc went home with no a single cent in his wallet, i went home with $1 remaining, n chew the richest had $1.50 left. pathetic... MARC OWES US MONEY!!!!!

we wrote a 'get well soon note' to the guy who served us cos he was sniffing. it was kinda embarrassing so we made it obvious we were leaving 'WE ARE LEAVING', n left the note on the table n ran off, too embarrassed to show our faces there any more.

haha.. it was super fun though. i kept a napkin cos i might never go there again n jo made me keep the usa flag on her burger to bluff the world that i've been to US.

gotta rush for consort. bye!!! I'M LATE!!!!

STATUS : SINGLE

i can't feel my body any longer. it's soo sooo worn out. another day playing mama taking care of her little kiddies who jump, run, hop n scream around. tiring man. tml's the last day of the camp. uncertain if i should feel happy or sad.. happy cos i can finally take a good rest, sad cos i'll miss the kiddies although taking care of them is such tough work. today we went to the botanical gardens n here's a little on what we did.

we played scavenger hunt. items on the list include...

blue socks, nike shoes, a hat, sunglasses, a pink waterbottle, a digital watch, a brochure, a pair of spectacles, a hairclip, an unopened packet of tissue paper, an opened packet of tissue paper, 5 brown leaves from different types of plants, 5 twigs of the same length ( we cheated, they're not the same length), a brown belt(we couldn't find one n saw a passerby with one n requested to take a photo of her belt. i think she was kinda freaked out... o.O) and look what else we saw!!! it's a squirrel!!

we are not allowed to post photos of the kids on blogs for obvious reasons; parents might not be happy about their kids faces shown to the whole world, even thou my blog is actually only for view to very few people namely my closer friends, i respect the parents' decision so i'll display photos of us.. =)

here's chew n i in michelle n janel's raincoats, respectively. =) we were being dumb cos we thought their rain coats were really pretty, so we decided to put them on through their hoods since it was likely the only thing that could fit our huge body sizes compared to theirs.

here's us, maid clan. fann, chew, deb n i. yay! off-day!

here's peterpan befrienders!!! chew, kamal, peiqi n i. i look bald... but trust me i'm not. my hair is thick and comes in loads. if the kids are the lost boys, we, as befrienders should be the red indians?

lameness.. ok should cut that out. enough bout camp

hmmm, when people ask me if i have a bf, they'd usually assume it's certain i do... i dunno why. i don't understand why either.

"do u have a bf?"

"no..."

"dun bluff la..."

"really dun have!!!!" (-__-)

sadness overwhelms me. not cos people think i'm attached. that would be flattery cos they think there's someone who likes me. but the sad truth is that there isn't!!! NIL! NONE!! KOSONG!!!

depressing. i haven't had anyone liking me since a long long long time. i think i lost my attractiveness. but compared to last time, i do think i've become a better person n i wouldn't change that in anyway even if it means guys won't like me cos i like my current self more. if they don't like me then SO BE IT!!! quote joanne: 'BITE ME!!!'

duckie's got loads of suitors u know. i guess her personality really glows n her sense of humour is really attractive. =) i like her sense of humour loads n of course generiosity.

hmm, this is me being evil n no offence quek, but i envy u.. seriously. then again, i think i would rather find someone whom i truly like alot n maybe love, whom loves me back than many other who like me but i dun like them back.. u know what i mean.....

i always say that.. but i can't help feeling alitte little bit lonely some times...

then i'll psycho myself : "i don't wanna be like cinderella, sitting in a dark old dusty cellar, waiting for somebody to come set me free. i don't wanna be like snow white waiting for a handsome prince to come n save me on a horse of white, unless we're riding side by side. don't wanna depend on noone else, i'd rather rescue myself."

truthfully, every girl dreams of her dashing, charming, romantic knight in shinning armour to come sweep her off her feet. i'm just a normal girl ok.... fairy tale fantasies. (anastasia,ariel,belle) but in real life.... it's almost impossible... dun wanna give up all hope, still a speck of hope left... just waiting for my kisa. i don't know when, don't know how, but when it does happen, i'd be grateful. =)

ps.. i AM SINGLE N AVAILABLE!!!! bahaha. not an advertisement. just wanna make this clear. i don't need to survive on a guy ok.. i've got a life. =) night n sweet dreams dear diary.

Playing Mother for a day

HOWDY HOW!!!!!

back from the first official day of the vsa camp n i'm exhausted....
gahhhhhh..............

my group(Peter Pan)'s befrienders: Nurul,Kamal,Jimmy,Peiqi,Christina,Chew and I

i was assigned to this little boy called wei kang who had down-syndrome. but i think he was too tough for me to handle.. he was like hyper-active n i'm old with aching bones, hence couldn't keep up with the youthfulness.

the little girl whom Kamal was looking after needed to go pee so i took her since obviously he couldn't take her to the girl's loo... ermmm.. anyways, we skipped there n after the toilet trip she kept sticking to me... hahaha. so Kamal n i switched kids..

the cute little seven old girl is Janel (i have short term memory, couldn't remember her name cos it's so unique) she was supposedly autistic but she seemed like every other young girl to me other than her petite figure. she was 7 but she looked as though she was 4. she was much easier to take care of, maybe cos we're girls n girls know girl stuff... there are occassional times she would stare out into space n she can't be focused on things. she's also not very verbal, but she's just like every other normal child who loves playing games, love eating sausages(she ate mine too), dislikes vegetables(she said she does but she doesn't touch them at all when eating lunch), likes pretty things like heart(when her little ribbon cut-out heart flew to the ground, she was like where's my heart? where's my heart?!?!?!), loves company of friends(she'll follow her new bestfriend, michelle;joanne's little buddy, everywhere she goes).

it's not easy taking care of these little munchkins. =) but they're really adorable.
sometimes when u lose ur patience n have reached ur boiling point, u really wanna scream at them but when u take a look at their faces, u'll just bear somemore. sth about children that just makes u wanna give in to them all the time.

people tend to think differently of children with autism or children with down-syndrome. i think its really sad that society seems to have already stereotyped these children.
they are not any different from normal children. they are easily contented, sth normal children seem to take for granted.

nowadays, children are getting more wilful and demanding thanks to much pampering from parents and people around these kids. they have everything they want; toys, food, a comfortable bed, nice clothes (branded even),a house, a maid at their beck and call. thanks to the comfortable environment shoved to these kids since they were brought to the world, to them, it's common and they just keep asking for more when more is given to them. nothing is ever enough. MORE MORE MORE!! they've not experienced what these other children have experienced. difficulties making friends, trying to fit in because they are different, unable to do certain things not because they don't want to, but because they are restricted to.

we take for granted being born with the ability to be able to try everything from sports to studies (we being able to do well at it is another story =P). we should be thankful for everything we have, being part of a circle of friends, being able to be part of the modern, always changing society, being part of a lifestyle just like everyone. but we have to adjust ourselves to fit the fast-moving pace of life even if we dislike it.

these special children are like in a world of their own. they live life one step at a time. sometimes, when they stare blankely, i wonder what's going on in their minds. they view the world differently from us. perhaps they don't see the evil there is in the world. perhaps their view of the world is that of the purest sense. isn't it nice to see a very colouful world, with people always happy and smiling. where rainbows dash across the sky, where puffy white clouds dot the calm blue sky, where stars shine brighter than ever at night yet it's not when they're going to explode...
i don't knoww.... i'm not exactly a kid any longer thou sometimes i prefer to think of things in their perspective. no worries, just happy, happy, happy. =) why not?

i think i talk too much. sorry. i'll stop yakking now but a last phrase...



hello botanical gardens tml!! =) night

here's a poem about friends..
:-) Friendship (-:

Many people will walk in and out of your life.
But only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.
To handle yourself, use your head;
To handle others, use your heart.

Friends

Anger is only one letter short of danger
If someone betrays you once, it is his fault;
If he betrays you twice, it is your fault.

Great minds discuss ideas;
Average minds discuss events;
Small minds discuss people.


He, who loses money, loses much;
He, who loses a friend, loses much more;
He, who loses faith, loses all.

Beautiful young people are accidents of nature,
But beautiful old people are works of art.

Learn from the mistakes of others
You can't live long enough to make them all
yourself.

Friends, you and me...
You brought another friend...
And then there were 3...
We started our group...
Our circle of friends...
And like that circle...
There is no beginning or end...

Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is mystery.
Today is a gift.
That is why it is called the present.


can't wait for VSA camp tml n meeting my little buddy!! =)
i need to wake up early tml!!! NIGHT!!!!!!!!!
