Lazy.
 
Four days of school have passed and I apologise for the laziness to blog. Seems like there is nothing much going on in my life these days, other than subject selection which, as usual, is driving me nuts again. 

Will perhaps update over the weekend after skiing on Saturday (Yes, we are going to Mount Buller!). If I can't be bothered about my readings, that is ;p

'Cos you and me
All we want to be
Is lazy.
 
Suede - Lazy.

Cinema of Flying Daggers.

No I did not get the title of the movie wrong - it was a joke between Z and myself ;p

Anyway just for the record I am going to watch House of Flying Daggers later tonight at 2345 hours. It is so damn late I hope I keep awake throughout the film... but I just couldn't afford to miss it (I mean, Andy Lau *and* Takeshi Kaneshiro in one single movie?!?). Gonna be the last movie I catch before heading down under... I think?

KL just reminded me of a kissing scene in that movie, and if there was one I shall have to remember to sms him about it O.o?

X X X

Crazy Mom and I at the optical shop a few nights ago - trying out big funky shades.





Striking a pose.



Looking very sian indeed...

Sigh. I am going to miss Singapore so much when I get back to Melbourne (Yes, despite all that I've said earlier about hating the weather and certain Singaporean behaviour).

Two nights to go.

You kissed me, and went on your way
The night we called it a day.
 
Frank Sinatra - The Night We Called It A Day.

Big Fat Menace.
 
I went to Popular at Toa Payoh yesterday afternoon, intending to get the very essential stationery supply for the new semester, when at the pens section I saw this:
 

 
Annoying little FAT twerp (whom I suspect eats 5 meals a day and weighs close to 20 kg) doodling all over with a brand new marker pen and wasting its ink?!?! With no parent or guardian watching over her?!?
 
I shot her a cold glare with squinted eyes. No reaction (because she was too short to notice me anyway).
 
FINE.
 
I inched closer to her for another pic.
 

 
This time she turned around and looked at me, wondering what I was doing with that silver looking device called a digicam - but I am not sure if she knows I was taking a pic of her. Look at that irritating fat face (still holding the marker pen?!?).
 
This once again proves how much I hate (nope, it isn't even dislike anymore - it's HATE) kids. Don't use that "you were once a kid too mah" or "oh come on, you look like a kid yourself Lynn" thing on me, it doesn't work -_- Seriously man, Popular should display their pens high enough so that twerps like her cannot reach them and use them to doodle everywhere on the "testing paper" (without the supervision of their parents). Speaking of whom, where WERE they?!
 
At the Health books section where they were so engrossed in getting tips on how to have good sex after 40??? -_-
 
Kids - Remind me never to have any of my own.
 
After I painstakingly gathered the pens I wanted to buy, I realised I did not bring along my Popular discount card.
 
... And so I left.

X X X
 
Had a nice time catching up with Jo at Serangoon Garden Coffee Bean for almost 2 hours. Bitching about Blob, Blob's parents, life and love-life in general ... it was good. All good.
 
Thank you Jo for the Vanilla treat and the lift ;> My turn next time. And please remember, no more Camomile tea for you ;p
 

 
A photo of Jo taking a photo of me taking the photo (haha go figure). Sorry about the missing face though -_-
 

 
What we had - Jo's specs (;p), the cheesecake, the supposedly hot Camomile tea (don't ask why it's iced -_-), and my Pure Vanilla Ice Blended.
 
X X X
 
I am going shopping later.

Eye Candy.
 
(Girls and *gAys*, get a grip. What you are about to witness could be lethal).
 
After I finally figured out how to post pics on blogger again, I realise I have gone on a mad pic-upload spree - on Won Bin, that is.
 

 
The pout.
 

 
The smile that stole a million hearts, of which one was mine... :>
 

 
Looking hot in wet weather O.o
 

 
Seriously cool.
 

 
Sigh...
 

 
That killer smile again.
 
And finally, the grand finale.
 

 
Finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through.
 
Firehouse - Love of a Lifetime.
 
And indeed I have.

Mean Beans.
 
First things first - I can finally upload pics on my blog again, phew! Thank you Starlite and everyone else who helped in a way or another :> 
 
I watched "Mean Girls" (for the second time -_-) with Piggy last week. It was "brainless fun", as she had mentioned. I think the guy who played Aaron Samuels is so cute ;p And then you realise how things are different now, when she, of all people, asks you...
 
"But what does FUGLY mean?" (with those very genuinely innocent-looking eyes)
 
"You mean you don't know?" I replied with raised eyebrows.
 
Tsk tsk. Where have you been, Pig? ;p
 
Or am I the resident mean bitch now? O.o
 
Well, considering that the character Regina George reminded Gunther of me... it's not very much of a surprise, huh.  
 
X X X
 
The "Sakura, Sakura" music video with Zhang Shanwei in it is killing the hell out of me. It's on Channel 8, Channel U and God knows what other channels every single night. Someone sue the TV stations - that song, is a weapon of mass destruction -_-
 
X X X
 
People are starting to ask me out at the last minute again. I received 3 messages (from 3 different people!!) within 45 minutes just now, asking if I was free on blah blah day at blah blah time to meet up and have lunch, yada yada. To think I had my entire week planned out, and now I have to make extra time ... which KILLS me.
 
Excuse me, I hope you people understand that I am flying off this Saturday night and I don't exactly sit around shaking my leg waiting for last minute requests such as these.
 
Shall reject the calafares (how do you spell it?) for now -_-
 
X X X
 

 
Sigh. I love you Won Bin. Will you marry me? 
 
He is strung out on a TV dream
And he's the taste of gasoline
And he's as similar as you can get
To the shape of a cigarette. 
 
Suede - She's in Fashion.
 
Okay, it's supposed to be SHE all the way, but heck ;p

You have an animal soul! Arent you lucky! You are
very interactive with animals and can
understand them even if you dont speak their
tongue. The birds arent afraid of you, deer can
eat out of your palm, and every dog will roll
over for you. As an Animal Soul, you follow
your instinct, sometimes making rash decisions,
and not thinking properly. If you dont
understand something, you reject and push it
away, and can get very disastrous when angry.
At the same time, youre a very kind person who
can make people feel better, and are
understanding and compassionate. One of the
great things about you is that your rarely
jealous, and know that you have to share and
help other people if you want to survive this
world. You are very loyal and optimistic, and
can make it through the toughest times.

What Kind of SOUL do you posses? (For Girls only) Incredible Anime Pictures!

SOS.
 
This is a desperate appeal for help.
 
Someone help me. I can't post pics on my blog as before because blogger changed its layout again. Now when I do the "img src" thing, it doesn't work anymore. The icon beside the spell check is useless. I am so so lost -_-
 
So please, if you are some computer whiz (I'm hinting at some of you now, hehe) reading this, or if you have already figured out how to upload pics on the new blogger site, let me know.
 
HJ, I can't believe you replied "Tree" when your Accounting tutor asked what was your favourite kind of cake -_- Anyway I'll be back in about a week. Wait for me ;>
 
And there's nowhere in the world
I'd rather be
Than here in my room
Dreaming about you and me.
 
Selena - Dreaming of You.
 
An absolute classic.

Tanjobi Omedetou.
 
Happy 21st birthday to someone ... whom I've always been in touch with, but at the same time, have never really known or understood. 
 
Hope you like the Crumpler ... and congrats on passing your driving test. Should be a good birthday this year :>

"Brotherhood" was so sad, so sad that I cried twice throughout the movie. I admit that I was, by the time I walked into the cinema, very tired of war films, but this one was pretty refreshing in the sense that it had one main storyline (the brother-to-brother love, duh! ;p) which strung the whole movie together (think of a spinal cord running along your back) . Jang Dong Gun and Won Bin created very amazing onscreen chemistry as brothers (and Won Bin was absolutely to die for ;p) Go watch it for yourselves people, it is very much worth an $8.50. 
  
Won Bin's role in "Brotherhood" reasserts the fact that he is so much more than just a pretty face ^_^ 
 
The couple who were seated on my right during the movie drove me nuts though. Talking at top volume as though they were giving an on-the-spot movie commentary, giggling at every single scene as though it was *insert title of your favourite comedy here* (war film, WTF?), all throughout the movie. Time and again I shot cold glares at them as a subtle hint, shook my head, went "tsk tsk tsk" et al, but I guess it was too dark in the theatre for them to notice -_- To further illustrate how unbelievably childish they were, there was this moment when Won Bin's character said "the day after tomorrow" in Korean, and when that phrase showed up onscreen in English subtitles, the girl let out a loud giggle and exclaimed "hehehehe the day after tomorrow... hehehehe" (in reference to that movie The Day After Tomorrow). For crying out loud, aren't you in your twenties already?
 
Singaporeans and the Singaporean way of life - Bloody hell.
 
By the way, I was asked for my IC by the ticket checker.
 
"Brotherhood" is NC-16.

I have finally gone to Jurong Point - my first time (Okay I am ulu). Thanks Slackers for the tour ;>

8 days left in Singapore.
 
There's nothing left to say
But goodbye.
 
Air Supply - Goodbye.

Rollin' Good Times.

Spent an entire afternoon in town with the Pink Shit. Very heavy lunch (ugh!) at Black Angus (which was pretty good fare actually), after which he had to drag me to the Manchester United shop (yawn...) to look for clothes (?!). Not too bad a deal, considering I got to check out my latest obsession (see pic below) there while he tried on the clothes.

I swear I laughed about a year's worth of laughter this afternoon. The Pink Shit is by far the lamest, most incredulous laughter-inducing machine I've ever encountered in my entire life. NEVER (and I mean NEVER EVER) go out with him alone cos he is going to drive you CRAZY.

Thanks for the stomach-muscle training, dude ;>

Anyway. My current obsession:



Cristiano Ronaldo - 19 years of age, plays killer soccer, and hot as hell (even in tears).



Guys good at sport are such a turn-on ;p

Oh well. Do catch him on television someday for the REAL thing!

X X X

It was you
Who put the clouds around me
It was you
Who made the tears fall down.

Eric Clapton - Blue Eyes Blue.

Too much of something is bad enough.

After almost an hour on the phone with you, I guess the magical mystery about not knowing you too well has vanished.

Too much of nothing is just as tough.

... I just don't know how long I can hold on.

X X X

Have a safe trip Ter. Am sure it will do you quite a bit of good. Eat some Taiwanese sausage for me ;>

X X X

I realise that certain people from my church are getting on my nerves. Yesterday morning during praise and worship I saw this scrawny-looking guy not a day over the age of 20 (I do not know him personally, God forbid), singing with his arms stretched as though he wanted to embrace the sky, coupled perfectly with eyes closed and facial expressions which seemed to suggest that he was really INTO the whole thing. I now regret not getting out of my seat to check if there were tears in his eyes.

And for that, God is surely granting him that place in Heaven ;p

Oh ... by the way, multiply that by 10000 and you'd get City Harvest Church. Throw in some more people with hair dyed bright yellow who speak broken English to make the finishing touch.

X X X

Are 21st birthdays really worth all that trouble?

Too much of nothing is just as tough
I need to know the way to feel to keep me satisfied.

Spice Girls - Too Much.

X X X

Pardon me, I swear the SG will only appear once ;p

The things we do for money.

I really hate it that I had to use the word "we" above, simply because it includes myself. Was at Plaza Sing with Piggy on Thursday evening watching "Spiderman 2", when on the escalator we saw ... (see pic below) and I started bursting into VERY LOUD fits of laughter. Yes, there and then. You know me -_-



The Fujitsu 72-hour Cold Challenge. Top prize winner gets $20,000 worth of Fujitsu products ... or something. Whatever.

Are Singaporeans too free? Are they too bored with nothing better to do? Is the 20 grand (and it's not even cold hard cash?!) so worth subjecting themselves to such utter embarrassment for?! I'm ashamed that I live in the same society with these people.

X X X

"Spiderman 2" was pretty good. I liked it for its somewhat mindless entertainment value, some thought-provoking dialogue and decent OST. Vindicated by Dashboard Confessional go download it. Still don't think much of Kirsten Dunst though.

"Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" with ZS, after what seemed like 10 times of trying to arrange a suitable day to catch it before it ran out. I give it 8.5 outta 10 solely for the refreshing plot. Never liked Jim Carrey nor Kate Winslet though. And sigh, Kirsten Dunst was in it (which essentially means that I have watched her onscreen twice in 2 days -_-).

X X X

My beloved band at Aquadisiac has been replaced by Urban Xchange and banished to playing in the open with only 3 members left. Boo Hoo #$#$@^&$!#@$&!

On another note altogether, Nat has dieded. We don't even know where she has gone to. Still in Beijing, back in KL, or Ipoh?! To think she was supposed to come back here and go with me and Piggy to Max Brenner's and Harry's before she flies back to Melbourne -_-

Insanely hooked to Blue and Elton John's "Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word" again O_o

X X X

I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
And did you ever know
That I had mine on you?

Faye Wong - Eyes On Me.

You've lost that loving feeling.

Two of my friends, of whom I am closer to the girl, broke up recently after X years of being together (where X > 4). I did not actually see it coming - though I've always believed that everything is bound to reach its point of saturation after some time, including long-term relationships. In this case, it can seem very easy on the surface to identify who was right and who was wrong, but like all things in life, we cannot look at it from merely one angle. We tend to be quick to show sympathy for the person who has seemingly did "nothing wrong", and point fingers at the one who supposedly "started it". I admit that I used to be one who would pity the "innocent" (not that I don't now) and blame the "guilty", but after going through the breakup process with her, I now realise that as third parties, we should look at things from a more objective point of view instead of jumping to conclusions without considering other factors. It is afterall never easy to say goodbye to a (X > 4)-year relationship just like that.

Just my humble opinion.

X X X

So hj left for Melbourne on Sunday morning, on the 0955 SQ flight (oddly enough, he was on the same flight as Blob). I know you are gonna do just fine over there, brother :>



Blob's family, myself and mom.



Myself, hj and wisp. I look retarded.

X X X

Blob didn't make it to uni eventually, after 9 months of study in Melbourne. Like WTF. His mom came to my place yesterday afternoon and started crying there and then. I guess what she told me made sense. "Work hard for your studies ... don't fail yourself, don't fail the society." I must say Blob really is quite an idiot, considering all that money spent on his education and expenses. Now he is left with nothing but a pathetic O-level cert at age 22.

To add on a tinge of irony, he has a brother in RJC and a sis in RGS (??!).

X X X

I have been invited to a "birthday gathering" (somewhat) at Double-O this Saturday. Nothing to do with Double-O, but isn't it a bit strange to have a birthday treat at a place like that? With the music and dancing and the booze and the people? So how's the bonding going to take place?

I think I shall pass, no matter how VIP the people are ;p Sorry dudes! I guess I can never get comfortable with clubbing...

X X X

I re-coloured my hair yesterday afternoon at ExKlamation :> Once again, I am ignoring the fact that I shouldn't be spending so much money this holiday. I mean, hello!! That alone cost me $113, just for a highlight of ash brown and golden brown. Sorry mom, I promise I won't re-colour too soon ;p Yeah right.



The new me with a new hair length and colour. Rawwrrr.

And, after like 3 years of not seeing each other, I finally met up with Starlite for shopping and dinner yesterday. Was initially afraid that we'd have nothing good to talk about, but everything went very well ;> Thumbs up for the Thai dinner and dessert at Renn Thai... though I must admit, the waiters there seem to have an issue with plain water. Bwahahhahahahaa.



X X X

Something's coming over me.

Time through the rain has set me free,
Sands of time will keep your memory.

X-Japan - Tears.

Missing In Action.

I apologise for the 9 day "absence". I have surprisingly been kept very occupied since I got back last Saturday, so I couldn't really be bothered to turn on the computer every night. It's been an eventful week - meeting people, catching up on the food I missed, and of course, finding myself back into the Singaporean way of life again (which actually kinda sucks).

Okay let's see. Since the 26th of June, I have:

1) Met up with friends from schools both primary and secondary, church, and even the bunch from NJ (like, huh?).

2) Watched an entire 20-episode Cantonese drama series from 1990 within 4 days (which also explains my MIA every night).

3) Attended the one very important hj's 21st birthday party.

4) Woke up before 9am twice. Voluntarily.

5) Watched a couple of Euro matches by myself *sobs*

6) Had Mos Burger, KFC, Long John Silver's, and Mac's. One time of each. (Were you thinking that "Supersize Me" had an effect on my dieting habits? Apparently not).

Anyway here come the pics!



Primary school gathering on Thursday, with just one person not from YZPS :>



Birthday boy!

X X X

Not feeling very well right now. I know the reason, but I simply refuse to admit it.

And I'll give up forever to touch you
'Cos I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now.

Goo Goo Dolls - Iris.
