lithium.

such relief! got that bloody sticker of a german student visa yesterday morning. i almost cried with joy..nah. i didnt. i just wanted to smack that betchy lady at the counter for taking so long.

anyway, now i'm gonna pull a stunt. it includes attempting to transform 40kilos into 20kilos of luggage and a disappearing act to london on fri morning.
yup. i'll be back to sg tmr night, hopefully. and maybe some packing and rushing on thurs. and fri 7am, changi to heathrow.

(:
well, now...hello london loves.

such great heights

i clearly forgot to mention and brag at the same time about my fab planner for 2008. it's entertaining and seriously hilarious. being so politically incorrect and jabbing about all sort of global issues. it's a good time-waster. introducing: the benrik ltd planner. check it out on www.thiswebsitewillchangeyourlife.com and u can see for urself there's cult out there religiously following the weekly instructions in the planner.


the front cover, behind that removable red and yellow tag sticker, it says: your secret instructions are to talk everyone you meet this year into commiting a particularly horrendous crime against humanity, and then pretending you had nothing to do with it whatsoever. HAHA.



the first week's instructions are: discipline other people's children. HAHA.



this week, watch someone sleep.



cheerleader week!



the actual planner part of the planner. heh.


it's so tiring being a grown-up. i hate responsibilites and decision-making.
have i ever said that before?
pretty sure i have.
but i can't help reiterating this fact.
gawddd.
which is why travelling is so therapeutic in so many ways.
and im addicted to some extent.
although i seriously gotta stop spending at some point in time.
i realised i'm getting pretty broke and money doesnt grow on trees (unfortunately.).
going away to a strange foreign land where u can prance around happily and no one watches u.
u dun have to think about consequences yet. cus they are so far away at that point in time.
and whatever troubles can be sorted out later...after the travelling.
yes, im a fool.
and i gotta stop living in neverland at some point as well.

and the heart, yes the heart is like a box.
because right, it can only contain so much at once.
there's no infinite space there.
so in order for new things (maybe better, maybe not) to enter, some old stuff gotta be thrown out.
and i suppose, if i think of it that way, then, perhaps it's high time to let go and move on.
it really is tempting to spring-clean the box; throw everything out and start collecting all over again.
just like starting afresh.
i wonder how difficult and strange that would feel....

played runner.

and so i decided to turn in and surrender. today i pledge to give up my vices one at a time.
no deadline. just one at a time.
its not too late for resolutions is it?

another thing, i vow to get my driver's license this year.
what sparked this motivation? i hate public transport!! the train is ridiculously crowded and i hate ppl staring, shoving, staring. i get really annoyed. i dunno why. sometimes i think i hate people except kids and senior citizens and poor ppl. wait, i'm gonna take back the kids part. cus some of them are whiners and criers.
and waiting for the bus is so exhausting and draining for me. taxis used to be perfect until i realised how much money got sucked away flagging down those vehicles.
so, the solution to my troubles is driving.
i guess that's another resolution for the year.


please please approve my german visa by this week. so i can clear my head and get over and done with the stress.
i really really wanna go to london asap.
tmr maybe?
no, i really want to get away. and london dear london is my first stop.
once i board the flight, i will be utterly relieved cus plans will fall into place and catching up would be fab.
so to make myself feel better, i'm gonna start packing my luggage (:
20kilos!

i think today was a good day.
hanging out with someone u barely had a 5-minute conversation with for the past 4 years is wonderful.
u've nvr actually spent that much time together ever but u just hold great conversations because of the ties u've had before and the brief shared history and experiences.
no plans.
just roaming the streets and jumping at any spontaneous idea.
long walk.
beautiful sights.
gorgeous colonial buildings.
singapore art museum.
the esplanade.
tiffany&co.
tod's.
mont blanc.
marc jacobs.
kate spade.

i think today my faith in conversations have been restored.
the ability of ppl still having some substance that is.

so far, i've been relying on house for witty sarcasm and interesting conversations.
it's really sad.
it seems i've become an addict.
and i'm devastated that my stash of house episodes are coming to an end.
i think i should get season 2.
reruns are fine by me.

god bless me soul
(;

she floats.

phew! small talks and pigging out are almost over. but not quite yet.
few more houses to visit today and hopefully i win some moolah at mj, poker or whatever.

anw on tues night, i headed down to walas. eddie yeekiat ala and of course, char.
bumped into edwin dass cus he's working there. sweet!!
it has been ages since i've been to walas. oh walas bring back so much memories. good ones of course.
the different ppl i've been there with; liz nic char eug yk tz eddie jon kumaran joanna to name a few. and amazingly, not one time i've gone there and ended up in a fight or argument of some sort. (:

love love long time.
tonight better be a good night.

pray for a star.

i cannot deal with stress.
i'll blow up or i'll break down.

recent events have caused me to toss and turn in bed last night hours after i went to bed.
1. german visa
2. no time to spend in london anymore because of german visa
3. air ticket prices have skyrocketed since i last checked and would further increase because of the delay and uncertainty of the german visa
4. my pics from the last few days onboard the ship have been mysteriously deleted from my mac because there's a lack of memory space
5. cny reunion dinner- for many reasons. and i don't like steamboat.

tubular belgian in my goldfield

is the title of the song that's playing at the moment.


the weekend has been absolutely fab. loved it long time. fri was out partying with the cousins. well sort of. we went to pump room to see jive talking or was it talking jive? oh well whatever. i have really poor memory these days. sat morning was supposed to be brunch date by the pool with char. but she failed to keep the promise. ended up me swimming and her mugging with her lappie AND no brunch by the pool because it was raining and by the time i got there, it was lunch time. heh.
and then off to nic's place for mj with liz and ser pok. sweet! cus guess who won? ME. haha. and then we had a couple rounds of bridge which i did not perform too well. haha. but it was all fun. and then sunday morning, i woke nic up with some sushi..how nice! lunch with teikzhen at this yummy french cafe called frensh? so good to meet up. what a productive weekend i would say (:


i love the german uni ppl. so helpful unlike the bloody german embassy ppl in kl. mofos. the german uni person actually called up the german immigration for me and checked if they have received my application and they got it by email. now they are just waiting for the official documents to arrive from kl which would take 2 weeks. WTF. haven't they heard of express mail? fedex maybe? cheebye kl german embassy. i already told them how urgent it was. i do not understand how they function. honestly. gawdddd. i'm so gonna scream my head off at them over the phone on monday. i hate ppl who cannot do their jobs.


ok char. i'm gonna upload the pics soon. patient ok? love love.
