This is getting harder...
Day 1
29 May 2012, 1:58 AM
Just had an intensive Wow Club rehearsal and I forsee aching backs and thighs the next morning. Not complaining, totally good exercise!
Speaking of exercises, I'M SO SORRY QIUYAN FOR NOT WAKING UP TODAY :'(

I had a lot in mind to blog about, but all I'm thinking is to crash right now. Good night.

Couch Patooie
28 May 2012, 3:38 AM
Finally ended work at Noel Caleb after 2 months and I'm back to being the life of a couch potato! *pumps fist in the air* I do like working but it gets mundane after having to stand down there for 5 hours, not having a single customer (sometimes) to talk to in the day. What's worse is that I'm totally not a morning person and waking up to travel to Harbourfront MRT station is a total chore. This is sometimes why I hate the location of my house.
So, now that I have the time, it's time to materialise some plans that I had in mind! First up, its to gao dim my study room and bed room (read: to pack the massive amount of UNWANTED clothes and sell them in a flea). I'm kind of a closet clean freak, so I'm so looking forward to these plans! Hehehe.
I can't wait to catch up with all my friends and finally have some sleepovers since everyone is quitting their jobs to enjoy life before university starts aka everybody will be free! YAY!
Speaking of university, I've already accepted the offer for NUS-Science. I really hope that I've made the right decision. Sigh A levels were a total let down and I promised myself that I would never ever let that happen again. This means that I (might) become a hardcore mugger when I get to university! Ok... I'll try to be a hardcore mugger but for those who know me... It's harder for me to be a hardcore mugger than for me to not go shopping (trust me, it's a real big challenge).
I can't wait for tomorrow to start because there's so many programmes lining up tomorrow! I love to be kept busy (for leisure purposes).

2012 is actually getting better. Finally :')

Nightmares and Dreamscapes
10 May 2012, 12:39 AM
These few days passed by so quickly and I realised that I'm almost out of time. My 8 months holiday is coming to an end and I haven't achieved half of the things that I want to do. Perhaps taking up this job was a mistake :( Anyhow, I've got some cash in my hands (my very first pay!) and I'm going to quit it soon. I'm totally going to make use of the remaining time to catch up with my friends, do the things that I really really want to do (e.g. taking a trip down to east coast park for rollerblading, go to USS, redecorate my study room...) can't wait!
Sigh... the first day is always the hardest. Going to press on!!! The end is near.

Busy busy
29 April 2012, 3:52 AM
Been neglecting this space but for a very good reason. Affirmation Ceremony ended and it was a total blast. All the hard work was totally worth it! :)
Nowadays it has been just work and going out/catching out with my friends. Gotta admit, I miss the life of a couch patooie and I'm gonna revert back to that life on 27th of May. Probably to do the things that I really want to do.
To-do List:
1. Finish Grade 5 piano
2. Learn how to sew
3. Learn Japanese
4. Swim + Keep fit
Ok, I know I know... I really don't like piano but I just find that its a waste to just... let go and give up halfway. It's like I never really completed many things in my life and I figured, instead of being a jack of all trades and a master of none, I should really do this. And at least, make my parents proud, since they really wanted my sister and I to learn piano since I was in K1? I guess sewing would make me spend less money because I can make my own clothes! HAHA ok what a wishful thinking, haven't learn how to walk yet still want to run. But... fashion has always been something that I really love and I guess this "to-do" is my attempt to be one step closer to this dream of mine. As for learning Jap, I've been wanting to learn a new language for the longest time I can remember, so I chose that! Anyway, I heard from my uncle that it is a lot easier than learning other languages since some of the Jap characters look like Chinese characters.
I'm contemplating if I should join the swimming competition that my coach gave me a form to sign up for today and the worse part is... I have to give an answer by tmrw! Ohgosh... Decisions decisions... Sigh but the competition is on the 20th of May so I might not even have enough time to train. Ohwell... Maybe a good night's sleep will help me decide better?
NEED TO DO TOO MANY THINGS AND THERE'S TOO LITTLE TIME. WHY?! :<
The Hunger Games
29 March 2012, 2:43 AM
Decided to blog about The Hunger Games! Caught it with my dearest cheeseburger couple of days before in CWP, and I'm really having mixed feelings about the movie :/
Before the movie, I finished the whole series of The Hunger Games and I've gotta admit, despite my skeptism on the "nice-ness" of the books, it turned out to be x9324987405620934 better than I expected it.
Before the movie, I finished the whole series of The Hunger Games and I've gotta admit, despite my skeptism on the "nice-ness" of the books, it turned out to be x9324987405620934 better than I expected it.
I guess, what attracts me to this book is how one person could change a system that has been in placed for nearly a century. There's a little rebel in all of us, but it takes the guts to bring that rebel out of us. I admire the bravery and sometimes the stupidity of Katniss, but what I admire the most is not fearing to die. How I wish that if I were to know that I'm going to die the very next day, I wouldn't be upset and have no regrets because I know that my death has a value and I have no regrets dying.
But probably because the book is so much about Katniss and her thoughts, the movie fell short on that. I'm not blaming the director or actress or whoever, HOW THE HELL ARE YOU GONNA PORTRAY THOUGHTS ON A MOVIE!? Nonetheless, y'know... a lil' bit of disappointment?
However the scene that I really thought was badly portrayed was the part where the big guy (forgot his name) from Rue's district decided not to kill Katniss because of what she has done for little Rue. Spoiler Alert: In the show, he just shouted at Katniss? Telling her how he wasn't going to kill her because of what she has done for Rue and just ran the opposite direction.
That scene admittedly is one of the more emotional scenes to me from the book, and I was really disappointed at that. Maybe because they ran out of time I dunno or what but frankly, I don't mind sitting there for another... 5 minutes more to see that scene fully played.
To me, this scene was about how all of them aren't the chess pieces of the Capitol and that despite how cruel The Hunger Games are and how it took away lives of children, but it didn't take away the spirit of anybody in the districts. Instead, I think it strengthens it and perhaps President Snow is right, hope keeps people alive. At the start of the book, Katniss was guarding against Peeta because she knew (or expected) that they are going to have to kill each other at the end of the games and that both of them created an upheaval due to them holding hands in the parade because nobody treats anyone from their districts as friends. What for when you know that they are going to kill each other anyway? But, if the main characters of the books are changed to Rue and that big guy, I think he would do the same for Rue as how Peeta did for Katniss (minus the star crossed lovers relationship). Choosing her life over his, because Rue is just a precious girl who just started living.
Ok... Maybe I'm reading too much into the book (notice the pun? HAHA) but that was what that scene meant to me.
On the overall, the show isn't really that bad although some parts were not exciting enough for me HAHAHA maybe I was too tired due to the insomnia I suffered from the previous night.
To all of y'all out there: WATCH THE MOVIE BEFORE YOU READ THE BOOK.
Peace out yo!

Badabadum
2:21 AM
Started work at Noel Caleb on Tuesday @ Vivo Tangs! Despite the meager pay, I'm really enjoying myself :D Looking at pretty clothes, talking to aunties about the day/me/store, packing the stock room, talking/recommending customers looks and the best of all, MIX AND MATCHING MY OWN NOEL CALEB CLOTHES! Superficial, but fashion always seem to have the ability to calm me down and just... forget about reality sometimes.
Uni apps are killing me, all the suspense about not getting letters or mailing supporting documents that the universities are not receiving is frankly one of the most nerve wrecking experiences I have :'( I just hope that everything really turns out well! Keeping my fingers crossed X LAI LAI UNI LETTERS.
Caught up with delta, some of 6D girls, Vale, Jaslynn and Joycelinnn these two weeks and its just awesome really, to be around friends and just fooling around and having fun. Now that the 8 months holidays are only left with 5 months, I really really really want to do so much more with the holidays. Set up a blogshop with my sissy + cousins, go on a trip, have a spa day, teach some tuition classes... and the list goes on and on and on and on! I just hope that this hype lasts before I revert back to the life of a couch potooie. Hiak hiak!
Sadly, my mac is in repairs right now, so no pix no pix and all boring worrrrds. I'm sorry! But... blogs are for words and facebook is for pictures! So hope along to fb if you want to see pix!
Can't wait for Wow Club's performance on Affirmation Ceremony! :3
Peace out yo!
RIP WHITNEY HOUSTON
14 February 2012, 3:07 AM
One of the most inspiring singers in the world has just passed away and that is our lovely Whitney Houston. I could never get out of my head the chorus of "I will always love you". Countless of people had tried to do this song justice, regardless, I still preferred the original version. RIP WH.
Nonetheless, she's not the reason why I re-visited this space when I'm desperately in need of sleep since I have work tomorrow, but I just saw something on 9gag that really pissed the hell out of me.

Ok maybe I'm making kind of a big deal out of this little joke.
I guess it's sort of accumulated that I TOTALLY NEED A SPACE TO RANT.
Since WH's death, while some respectfully mourn for the loss of this superstar, some just have to use this "opportunity" as another avenue to flame another.
What I've seen on twitter and everywhere is that: Why did God take the life of WH but not JB?
Uhhh... I mean seriously? Come on? Shouldn't you be just focusing on HER LIFE instead of JB, who has totally nothing to do with her death?!
A few months ago, I was listening to the radio and heard the news that another great artiste, Amy Winehouse unfortunately passed away at the age of 27. It was a heartbreaking news, considering how much she had went through when she was alive. Coincidentally, she joined the "27 Club", which was "established" as many musicians had passed away at the age of 27. Here comes the pissifying part: Instead of focusing on AW's death, the DJ went on and commented "On the bright side, JB would be 27 ten years later." What the hell?
Ok fine, I admit that I'm a JB fan because I think that he is cute and his r/s with Selgomez is totally precious.
BUT,
So what if he started out with a voice sounding like a girl? So what if he don't write ALL his songs? So what if he churned out pop songs that don't suit your taste? So what if all the girls are crazy about him? SO WHAT?
Does it give you the right to curse this boy, who is just turning 18 this year, to die?
Ok can.
Ok can. Just to share a comment that was real funny: 50 years later this march, JB would be 68. HAHAHAHAHAHA :'D
And look at this pix, I MEAN COULD PEOPLE GET MORE IRRITATING?
He is just a boy, who is following his dreams, who wants the world to hear his music. Is there anything wrong with that? He is someone's son, someone's brother and someone's friend, could you imagine how heartbroken they would be when they come across pictures of him like that on the internet, just because he FOLLOWED HIS DREAMS? How insensitive can people get?
Let's not talk about the people around him. Let's just talk about him. I mean, he is not even legal yet. He is just a kid. Could you imagine the emotional toll that's on him? People actually want him DEAD.
"A Justin Bieber page on Facebook threatens to kill the singer if he comes to Peru for his concert on October 17. And Beliebers are fighting back with death threats of their own!
Oh no! Justin Bieber has already begun his South American tour but thinks are starting to get scary! Kevin Aragon Otazu created a page on Facebook threatening to kill Justin when he performs in Peru at the National Stadium on October 17. It even has 810 “likes”!
The page’s “about” section says Jose Chavez will step up and give Justin a big push at the National Stadium. The “description” says many spectators will be lined up holding water bottles and eggs (presumably to throw at the Biebs). Then, in capital letters it says Justin Bieber you better not come to Peru, it will be the biggest regret of your life. Seriously. Under products it says “Kill Justin Bieber” candies.
Beliebers have responded in both English and Spanish, and some have even given reciprocal death threats to Kevin, saying they will kill him and make it look like an accident.
Even if the person who made this page was joking, it’s not a laughing matter, although reciprocal death threats are not the answer either. Hopefully Justin will have extra security when he goes to Peru, and will stay safe as he continues to reach his fans around the world."

When a kid in high school is subjected to this treatment, it is deemed as cyber bullying/bullying.
When it is JB, he totally deserves it. HUH?! DAFAG?!?!
Don't get me wrong, although I got all these pictures from 9gag, I'm an avid 9gagger and absolutely adore 9gag's jokes and memes. But this bullying, is getting too far.
Don't complain when his music comes on a radio or a mall. The boy can't help it if some store managers or DJs like his songs. And I really don't find BABY BABY OH more irritating than songs such as STOOM STOOM STOOM STOOM or YOMAMA YOMAMA !#@$!@%$@#@!$@#$. Just grow some balls and walk away, instead of whining at the fact that some people actually really like his songs. BE A MAN/NICE WOMAN AND ACCEPT THAT FACT.
*exhales deeply* Ok I'm getting tired and I'm finally so much less angrier :)
To sum up this very long post that probably nobody will read:
Ya, he may look like a girl (a hot girl) to many.
BUT DEAL WITH IT, HE IS A GUY, NOT GAY AND HAS AN INCREDIBLY HOT GIRLFRIEND.
and a loving brother as well :')
Although ok.... his pants are really too low...
18 going on 19.
Trying to be normal.
