Yayyyyyyy

I am so happy that I only have one paper left!

So much so that I spent 3 days slacking!

HAhaha... Chris you're screwed. :p

Anyway was studying at the school library with Christina on Wednesday. It was fun gossiping talking about people! Heh heh heh. So fun to people watch.
I went to print out my asia pacific business notes. (Was at Central Library, but all the stations were taken so I walked to bizad to print them. Like what on earth right. I was out of my mind.) Gahhhh!!!! It's horrible! It's so thick! Shuyi and I were like staring at the stack of printout that came out of printer A (my printer) and even more at the stack that came out of printer B (hers).
And even worse, I saw the faggot irritating guy. (I shall be nice).

Thursday was nice. I studied a little on the train on the way to Orchard. 2 sets of readings! Yay me. I rock. Met Danial for buffet lunch at Sakae with his friends then went to play pool. (Peas are NOT tasteless!!! :/) I didn't eat that much this time round ... maybe cause I had to act demure. Hahhahah. :P

Anyway I know how to preempt people from asking me the talent scout thing already! whaha. Just say
(1) 'You're the one at XXX place right! Ya you asked me already! Ya I went! :)'
(2) 'Oh your friend asked me already!' *point to some general direction where there are people
(3) 'Oh I'm already contracted!'

Anyway, watched xXx2. Quite good though I miss vin Diesel. Ice Cube's good enough, I guess, but he's not the vin Diesel smirkery type you know what I mean?

And actually I don't even know what's going on half the plot also. People keep distracting me from the plot. :p It's good though (I think)

Later went to Zara to shop! I got a compliment! I was trying this dress, then went out to show it to Dan when this woman who walked past me went 'That looks nice! Wish I was that small'. Presumably about my dress size and not chest size. :p Yay. It was a very grecian looking dress... I thought it was gorgeous. But apparently it was dull. Bleah!! :p

And see I'm so nice. Compliment Danial... cause he looks nice in Zara shirts.

Lala... Then yesterday I went out with Mum. It's so fun to hang out with mum! Other than the fact that I didn't have to pay. (Heh) Mum is like a pal, sometimes I find myself saying stupid jokes to her like I do to my friends heh.

We went to Pioneer JC first to change Alex's pants. Then went to the Si Ma Lu temple to offer incense. Bought lots of stuff, but mostly food. Got my Shiseido facial wash and some stuff from TheFaceShop (They're finally in Singapore) and got to test the Be Delicious scent from DKNY. It's pretty good... I even like the male one too!

Anyway, got to go or I'm gonna be late!

Whoop de do

Har!

P/C is over!

Although I think I could have done better really. If I knew it was all memory work then I won't spend so much time trying to understand the chemistry stuff. Haha. But the paper was better than expected. Don't think A la... but I was so scared that I will be staring at the paper in shock. And wailing 'I got C6 for Pure Chem!!!!!! :('. I still am not over the trauma that was pure physics and pure chem.

Anyway, all is good now. I'm back to happy me again. *banishes away black clouds. No more cramps, plenty of time to study for next paper. Lalala. Oh ya!!! And going off to check the EB thing heh heh.

A list of stuff I planned / wanna do
Tanning with Moon
Ming's birthday buffet
Clubbing with Moon
Actually clubbing with anyone who feels like clubbing! haha. Ask me out!!! hahaha.
Drink Lychee Martinis!
Go out lots. I don't care where. I just want to go out.
Watch lots of movies. (Sin City! :D)
Find a job. (Bleah)
Buy some clothes. Have a few items I've been wanting to get.
Cut/dye/straighten my hair. Or should I like it go back to my wavy hair? Don't know

Anyway, today was good. Met Sam for dinner after my paper. Haven't hung out with her for such a long time!! Thanks for listening to me babble :) I'll be right here if ever you need to complain about you know who haha. :P Oh ya!!! Thanks for the survey thing. heh!

And on the bus on the way back, I saw Dennis (of Spinelli). Haha... it was such a coincidence. But very awkward la. Nothing to talk about... luckily the distance was short. Heh.

And I want to go travelling too. May be going to HK at the end of the year. Yay shopping, but dec's winter there, so probably gonna be really limited. Maybe cute little boots or something. *excited* Like these!!


But not very practical right. I saw the shorter version of it once... it was forest green and looks so nice and soft and comfy. I wanted to hug it.
And ya... maybe I'll FINALLY wear my long sleeve white turtleneck sweater top.

Oh finally! I'm excited about watching Eye for a Guy tmr! Go Shane! Although his video interview thing was a little weird, I think he's really nice looking. Haha. And funny too!

I AM out of my mind

Hah!

Cosmetics and Perfumes at 5 tomorrow.

I still have 4 lectures of Perfumes to go and 6 lectures of Cosmetics to go and I'm blogging!

This really takes the cake for most last minute attempt at studying.

But I'm not feeling the stress at all. I wonder why.

Unbearable lightness of being? (Now I'm just crapping. I really have no idea what that meant.) In fact I don't really feel anything at all. I think I should be scared of this numbness but I'm just not feeling anything.

Ok! I'll be so happy at 7pm tomorrow! Yay!

Sunday, April 24, 2005

When in doubt, run away

Time of the month - PMS - stomach cramps - splitting headache - lack of sleep - exams tomorrow.

I'm gonna borrow a phrase from Sheryl.

Kill me now please.

Thank goodness I like studying geography or really... just kill me now and be done with it.

One down!!!

Soci paper yesterday was alright. Although I did flub up the Communist Manifesto question. I'm so humiliated about it I won't want to repeat it here again but it has to do with Bourgeoise and Prolatariats. I'm embarrassed to even talk about it. Was talking to Huiyu after the exam and she was like 'you got that wrong?!' in a really incredulous tone of voice... ya, that's how given the question is.

So!!! Marx, Weber, Durkheim... BUH BYE!!!!!

No la... seriously, I like sociology. It's interesting, really. Cross my heart.

--------

Went to Spinelli's after the paper to get my daily dose of caffaine. Dennis (ya I'm like such a regular there we eare on first names basis) told me I am like one chop away from my 2nd free drink. (I left my card at over there) Eh? According to my calculations I only have 5 chops, not 9 ... I don't know la. I just went 'Really meh?!' and he's like 'Oh ya!'. Dan said he's helping me chop and I shouldn't grumble. But if it's real ah, $2.60 * 20 means I've spent 52 bucks this semester for coffee at Spinelli's (not counting the pastries I bought there. And not counting days whre I buy coffee at Edwards.) That's actually quite an okay amount right. I don't know.

--------

I studied with Christina at the Central library today!

(I was bored took a break)

I felt like I've accomplished so much! Hahaha... 3 chapters of perfumes lectures! :) Yay!

--------

Later met Danial at HV for dessert. Ice cream at Haagen Daz.



Erm, Chocolate chip, raspberry sorbet, mango sorbet, cookies and cream with cookie crumb, strawberries and raisins. Please don't ask me why they put cookie crumbs on top on sorbets. You should like put strawberries on sorbet right. Anyhow. It tastes yummy so... Thanks for coming down to hang out with me :)

--------

And finally, because I was bored,

I baked smiley faces (:D) Don't know if the link works, but it's Potato Smiles.



It's really cute right!!!!!






Wrong.

Not if you smear ketchup on it.

Wahhaha. :P

Oops

Thanks for all who asked about me and my totally depressive blog entry.

=)

I'm alright now.

Anyway!!! Shit sex and gender soci notes!!! Can you believe I skipped 1 lecture only, ONE lecture for sociology and this has to be the lecture that TODD AMES decide to add stuff that are not in the Ferrante text. Brawn Theory / Collins-Conflict Theory is so damn hard to find!!! In fact all theories are not in the text. AND THEY ARE NOT ELABORATED IN THE NOTES!!! What the hell, I can't believe this has to happen to me. Ughhhhh. Only ONE lecture!!!! What are the friggin odds?!!! So now I am online trying to research these theories. <3 Prentice Hall companion website for filling me in on a couple of theories. And to add on to my pissiness, America's Next Top Model 4 eliminated Tatiana!!! What on earth?!! Last I checked this was a modelling competition and you eliminated the most modelly one of all!?! I'm so pissed now, Tyra Banks.

Edit - Ok cause putting it like this will screw up IE (see Firefox is so much better!), you'll have to click on the link to see it.

Tati

Tatiana


Tatiana1

I want to add - Her arms are not flabby!! unlike mine!! (according to Danial. :/) I had to bold this =P





She's so gorgeous la. And so modelly. How can she be eliminated?! This is ridiculous. I hate Tyra Banks.

Breathe in life and breathe out

Was feeling so sucky just now. Really terrible. It felt like I was just being sucked down this vortex of pessimism (that's like so original). I don't know... on the bus I had this overwhelming urge to cry... ya... it's quite scary now that I think about it. What's wrong with me? Am overdramatising EVERYTHING.

Godmum called, she just went through a operation. While she was talking about her op, on the surface I was all concerned and being the dutiful god daughter. I supposed I am concerned about her. I honestly am. But the other side of me just went 'No! I can't do this now! I can't support myself even, I can't be there for you!!!'

I wrote something just now.

I am nothing

I cannot give you support
I am feeling weak myself

I never claimed to be strong
The right words can shatter me
Into thousands of tiny pieces
But you'll never see it

I am selfish and wilful
I willingly submit myself to despair
Knowing full well it is so wrong

Yet when you come down to it
It feels right

I have no willpower
I can never do the things I need to do
Nor say the thing that had to be said

I have no control
I have lost myself.
I don't know how to get back

I am vulnerable to the things that
I care about

I don't know what I am
Nothing.

eta1 - Went out for lunch last saturday with Mike at Crystal Jade at HV. Yummy. :) Thanks for the belated xmas gift haha. I liked it a lot :)

eta2 - Thank you for calling. It made me feel a lot better. :)

eta3 - Studied so much yesterday and today! 12-8 is not joke. This is like serious cramming. I am so screwed for soci. Bleagggg. I had fun yesterday though, though Dan did bring me around on a tour of my estate and I ended up walking around my neighbourhood aimlessly for 20-30 minutes. =)

So irritating

Recently NKF/Singtel has been sending out smses telling us something along the lines of 'If you key in SUCKER to 12345, you'll get A LOT OF PRIZES!! Sms now!'. Similarly, on tv, they have extras going 'Wow!! If you call 1900-112-8888 now you get to win 25 cars and 37 condominiums! What are you waiting for!!! CALL NOW!!'

It irritates me to no end.

Firstly, the advert is just too fake. Is it so hard to feign excitment? So irrtating.

Secondly (and seriously), it is so unethetical! I mean, how can a corporation this huge resort to something like this? You put the telephone number there in font size 1000 and then in extremely small print (that probably you need to be like 2 inches from the screen to see) it says one call is 5 bucks.

Honestly, I'm not against the NKF for it's lifesaving facilities. I do acknowledge that they do a good job in making dialysis affordable for everyone, and as a result they saved so many lives. That's good work.

But how misleading are the methods they get people to donate? Granted, the NKF show has been around for so long, people would know that it costs money to call in. But still! It is just so... misleading and frankly I feel it's unthetical. My neighbour's kid called up a bill of 300 plus last year cause - as he told his mother - that he didn't know it costs money, you can win stuff, and they have this exciting voice recording thing.

I just don't get why. Is it so hard to get Singaporeans to part with their money? Do we have to resort to insidious advertising to get people to make a 5 dollars donation? Do we have to give people 30 dollar gifts so that they'll make a 10 dollar donation? Are we so heartless that charity shows have to practically shove images of dying patients into our faces? Is it absolutely necessary to make this whole thing into a big sob-fest where we are purely motivated to donate cause the fear appeal was getting to us?

I told someone before, it's so ironic; these charity shows are a big joke. How ironic that artistes are trying to 'save' people who are dying by doing death defying stunts? They're putting their lives at risk doing weird stunts ... all in the name of getting donations for the patients whose lives are at risk. Isn't that making a joke out of the whole thing? The idea is to remind people how precious life is, not sending out the message 'well see, I'm able bodied, I can afford to do this to SAVE YOU!'

Ok la... I think it's great that the artistes are actually doing something to help the patients. I just think there's another way to go about doing it other than putting your lives at risk.

Hello! Welcome to Newton Food Centre. I am gonna rip off Mel's story telling idea cause I loved it so much :P Hee Posted by Hello

The Drain team. Hahahaha... Thanks to Mel and I who dropped the phone ;) and Caleb and Daniel who rescued the phone. Twice. :D Posted by Hello

GAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Greasy food alert!!!!! So fattening!!!!!!!!!!!! Posted by Hello

Mel and I act flirty at Settler's Cafe. This is like one of the more normal photos. hehheh Posted by Hello

laughing till your sides hurt

We love food!

Yesterday we went to Newton Circus to celebrate Weisiong and Mel's birthday. Happy birthday tomorrow Weisiong! :) Anyway, before that I went to a far far away place Serangoon to hang out with Dan. Kovan is like the most exciting place in the world. Haha. They have the snow ice thingy which I love... that's unfair... :/

It was fun! Everybody except zs and angel where there. Anyway, we ordered so much food! Gah! Haha... looking at the spread on the table (I think we had like 12 dishes?) HAhaha... and in the photos it looked so oily! Heh.

Oh ya... 2 stupid things happened. :p

(1) I dropped my phone while I was smsing... it landed near the drain and the cover fell out, and fell into the drain! I was so shocked for a while I didn't know what to do. Drain's about 3 ft deep. Actually the first thought that came into my mind was... 'I need to sms!' Second thought was 'Hey maybe I can buy a new phone'. Third thought was 'Did my SIM card drop in!!!' Thanks to Daniel and Caleb who helped get my cover. Daniel got it, then as he was passing it to me, it slipped though my fingers and fell. It balanced on the drain precariously for a while...

Then fell though the drain again.

...

Hahahha... Then daniel has to lie on the floor to pick it up again. I feel so bad, but really grateful :) Thanks to the whole 'drain gang' hahaha. :)

(2) I was taking the camera from WS and he passed it over over the plates of food. Then!!! as I took it, the battery fell out from the camera?!!! Like, what are the odds of that happening!! Gah... I feel so bad again. :/ Then the whole night they said I could touch anything cause it'll drop (like the char kuay teow :() or I'll fall into the drain. So ya... poor me.

Anyhow! Mel Christina Jiahui and I took lots of mad photos!! Hahaha... on the pathway near the road. It was so fun! We were like laughing all the way throughout the phototaking! Hahaha.

Later we went to Settler's Cafe at Clarke Quay area. HAhaha... took more mad photos (like school yearbook photos... hahaha...) We played Apples to Apples (quite fun), Pit (Made me hoarse screaming '2 cards 2 cards!) and Jungle Speed.
I love Jungle Speed!!! It's so fun, albeit violent hahah. Sorry Mel! And Ws nearly got hit a couple of times too.. haha. Jh's like really good at it la! :) And hah! Luckily I didn't lose! :p

Played for about 1 half hours. So fun! Happy that they have one at HV now... yayyy!

Ok now have to go study... :/

Kayne West

Sorry, I wasn't feeling very creative so the title 'Kayne West' is the artist whose CD I have on repeat on my player.

I had fun yesterday! Well sort of, I watched my first real horror movie - Samara - in I think 2-3 years? Last one was some Japanese school movie. Ok la... I don't know how scary it really is cause I was hiding behind my sweater half of the time anyway. But gah! I saw the samara scratching on the wall scene. That's like really disturbing. I don't think I screamed too much though, well, cause I didn't really see anything anyway so...

Later went to eat dinner at Marche with Dan and his 3 girl friends. It was fun talking to them! I think I laughed too much, my cheeks are hurting. Hm... then walked to Wheelock, to Taka (Forever 21!!! I bought 2 tops, which I'm wearing now.. erm one of them.) Gah and I checked out the Carrie necklace thing also. It was like 70 bucks?! Rip off la.

Hm... anyone noticed cows hanging out beside orchard mrt? It's so cute!!! I wanted to take photos of them, but it was too dark anyway... I saw some cows at the open space near Commonwealth MRT also, WHAT's UP WITH THAT?! Some kind of 'don't eat beef campaign?' Or 'Got Milk' ads? Hahaha.. they are too cute! I want one at home! Wait I meant they are cartoon cardboard cows, not like real ones. That'll be like too weird.

Then to Coffeeclub at Hotel California Fitness =P Had fondue... and accidentally 'checked out' this girl. No la... I was staring at the table sign on her table, cause it has pictures of smoothies (ours didn't have) and she thought I was staring at her la... Then Dan had to go stare at her also. She must be thinking (1) she's damn attractive, attract people of both sexes (2) we are mad.

Dodo... then went home and met some perv on the stairs. He was like following me really closely ... like 1 step behind me on the stairs la. Then I turned around, and he was like staring at erm... my skirt. Don't know... Then cause I got off at the 6th storey right, and I live on the 8th, so he followed all the way till the 8th, and then when I went to my door, he continued going to the 9th floor. Which is weird, cause if you lived on the 9th storey, you'd just take the lift to the 11th then come down ... makes more sense...

Don't know la. Hope I don't see that person again.

Impossible lusted-for object of the day

Was browsing Manolo Blahnik on the Neiman Marcus yesterday. These shoes are like.. so gorgeous. Cage shoes. They have them in gold too, and that seems so Samantha.



Yummy

Gah late for school.

I love them loads.

Food thoughts

(1) Salsa
See, this is what I have been eating for the past couple of days. Tostitos salsa and Doritos nachos. Thanks ah, Frito Lay... complementary products.. :/


Salsa and cheese nachos :D

(2) People in Africa are starving
Anyway, I was thinking of this comment I used to make in jc... just to irritate my friends.
'Eh finish your food! People in Africa are starving!'
Today I realised how irritating it must be to be my friends :P I mean, it's not their fault if the portion is too big and they can't finish it right? What did I want them to do? Force feed them so that I can feel better about starving kids in Africa? It's such a bad feeling to feel bloated, not as bad as starving, but it's not a good feeling.

And also, wasting food meant like taking food and I don't know ... throwing it around or using it for food fights. Or something. That is wasteful, cause you're not eating it. Not being able to finish your food doesn't mean you are wasting it... it just means you can't finish it!

Ok la.

(3) Sugar kills
And ya! Do you know that you could die if you consumed too much sugar? I think 1650 grams could kill you! Amazing right... but no worries, cause a normal serving of sugar (ie 1 packet in coffee) is about 4 grams, so.. unless you like, drink 413 cups of coffee a day, or are accustomed to putting 413 packets of sugar in 1 cup of coffee... you're safe.

(4) My diet today.
I ate so much today!!!
I realise I eat a lot when I don't have proper meals.

Morning I had a soonkueh and soya bean milk.
Mid morning I had white coffee and a oatmeal raisin cookie from Spinelli
Afternoon I had a small bottle of mineral water and a kasewurst (cheese sausage) and another oatmeal raisin cookie.
Mid afternoon I had a cup of starfruit juice and an omelette set meal

GAH!!! See!! That's like... I don't know.. ALOTOFFOOD!

Shitshitshitshit.

The one about the bored girl

Hello, here I am again, 2nd time in a day.

Shit la. 2 weeks to exams but I still can't sit down and really concentrate.

I went to Woodlands library, studied for 2 hours then went to buy stuff. Then for some reason I became so damn bored, I went home after that. And the opening hours for the library are changed ... 10 am! My gosh. Now people will be camping outside the doors at 10. There's no way in hell I'll be there at 10... I have trouble being there at 12 to get decent seats.

Bah.

I am so bored!!! I've like read everyone's blogs, I've checked out the next top model forums, I've studied one more chapter of asian markets, I've taken 35 photos of myself, I've taken 2 photos of Alex, I've watched a little of the 9 pm show which sucks btw.

Sigh, oh ya... Mum has a penchant for going 'Chris, you're getting fat ... don't eat too much!'
...
Like, I don't know la... Normally mums don't tell daughters to eat less right? For fear of eating disorders. Then here my mum goes 'Eh don't eat too much!' Haha.. I don't know how to respond so I went 'Ya... I'm going to get an apple'
I love my mum nonetheless.

Yayyy!!! Moon just called! We are going Sentosa and clubbing after my exams!! Yay! I miss that girl.

Salsa and nachos!

I finally caved in and bought salsa and nachos. Have been craving for them since the FritoLays presentation at Asian Markets lecture. See... I'm such a great target for advertising people... I'm like so susceptible to advertising. Except for Pepsi though.. I hate pepsi.

So delish! I love dips!

Dadada. Anyhoo. Went out to meet Mike just now at coffeebean and chatted. It was nice to catch up with him. Gahhh.. I'm just so happy that I bought the salsa la. I'll probably keep eating salsa until I gain 20 pounds and can't fit into my jeans. So delish!

And later went out with the parentals and Alex to some place in Alexandra to eat dinner, where they had delish kway teow noodles and fish head soup and oyster omelette and sweet and sour chicken :D I love food!

Then went to Queensway to get Alex's shoes and I got a pair of shorts. Erm. Ya, that's about it.

Do do do. Another procrastinate day. I'll start studying tomorrow, I promise.

Friday, April 08, 2005

It's too early to study

Yesterday was eventful

Rushed a project in the morning. 2202. It was terrible, I've never been so hurried for a project... even Asian Markets wasn't so bad. Anyhow, I think it turned out alright given the amount of time I spent on it. Much thanks to JH who was with me every step (online :)) providing a lot of help! 55 slides. I don't know why I'm like that... I knew I won't have enough time to complete it, yet I still volunteered to compile - not saying that they didn't offer to help. In fact, I was pretty adamant about wanting to compile, though at the back of my mind I was going 'shite, I won't have enough time' ... See the control freak in me is surfacing again.

Anyhoo, here's a slide


It's in JPEG format.. colours would have been clearer in bitmap form. But the colours are gorgeous right! I think JH has a good eye for colours :)

And so, I was in school at 930 am... once again, JUST ON TIME to get into lecture hall, see people leaving and submitting their projects. I've got to stop doing that.

Later went to Spinelli's for my weekly offering of cash in exchange for caffeine. Oh now Spinelli's guy (Dennis I think) recognises me and remembers my name. I really think I drink too much coffee. Haha... but I don't know la... it's like a twice weekly ritual. Haha. On Wednesdays I get my coffee from Edward. Hey wait, I just remembered he hasn't chopped my card!!! Gah!!! Seee. how sleepy and doozy I am before the first cup of coffee.

And later went to meet Dan at PS. (I was late again. :/) Supposed to go to Serangoon, but er... didn't. Watched Spanglish. I love it! I thought it was such a beautiful story, and actually the ending was kind of fitting. Not tragic.. but regretful? As beautiful as the ending for Children of Heaven (which I cried buckets... for no reason other than the fact that I was sad). And also any other ending you would not retain the respect you had for Flor. 'There's no distance between you and me'. That line's just powerful. Hm and Adam Sandler's so cute!

Oh I just remembered! The part where Flor and Adam Sandler parted and she whispered 'Mi Amor' Gah!!! I thought that was so so romantic! Man. That's just so beautiful. I was reduced into a blabbing pile of tears at that point.

Hm later went to eat lunch. Then walked around Times bookshop... I still can't find the stupid book that I saw at MPH. So irritating. Then went to play pool... yay I think I'm getting a little bit better. A little bit. At least I know how to place the balls now. :)

Hm... then. Ok la... I'm too tired to talk anymore. Will go get some coffee.

Yesterday and Today

Wednesday -

Happy Birthday Mel! :) Wednesday was good. Went out with Dan after APB meeting. Sorry for being late (again). I don't like to make people wait. I mean, okay, I'm always late but hmm... I don't like to make you wait. :) Went for dinner, then to Annex then to some ice cream place at Cine. Thanks for accompanying me all the way to black too. (And how dare you reject me :P)

Anyway, we were there to celebrate Mel's bday! All girls thing. Mel's friend who used to work at black got us some seats at the members area and opened a bottle of something. I think bourbon. (I don't really like bourbon actually) Oh ya!!! We got to drink lychee martinis!!! And tequila pops and another vodka lime. Do dodo... I didn't get drunk. I got a little high though. A little. I mean, I'd have to be that to go dance on the podium thing. Haha...

We were a little tired though, I had 9 am class that day. But yay! It was fun hanging out with Mel, Christina and Mel's friends. And oh ya, thanks Chris for driving us back. :D

Thursday - see previous entry.

'We are all Africans'

website for 2202 - handphone photos not loadable onto laptop (darn) - carrot cake, egg toast and apple juice - people walking in front of me are distracting - not dao, just don't have my glasses - pasar malam food - stupid girl - lychee martini, vodka lime, bourbon, tequila pop - am tired - get (more) shoes - writing messages - why are people staring at me - maybe have weird hair - maybe wearing glasses - maybe look gross - arghghahahgh - shit me wasted 15 mins doing nothing - feel like wearing cap - and contact lenses - Tatiana is a nice name - Gahhhh spent another 10 minutes looking at america's next top model -

I'm off. Will be back later.

Part 2

I was stalking val, my phone photos still not loadable.
I am eating a cheese and bacon crossain now
I wore my glasses to school today, and these are the responses I generated -

'No image to upkeep anymore ah?'
'What's up with the glasses?'
'Chrissssssss!!!! Why are you wearing glasses?'
'You look so totally slutty secretary sexy wearing glasses la!'
I made the last one up. Stupid old joke between me and Val.

Some people didn't recognise me. Hm. I haven't been wearing contacts to school for like the past 2 years have I?

Anyway, I'm not vain la. I'm just scared with all those scary contact lenses stories going around. Also, my contacts don't work anymore so... it's actually more of I have no choice but to wear glasses.

3 people complimented me on my shoes! Yay! (Yanting and Sheryl :p They are so mean.. *sob)

I think I want to go get my sweater from Topshop!! It's 66 bucks.. I guess it's alright, though I already have like 5 sweaters at home. Don't know la.. that one's adorable. I can't just leave it there!!! So poor thing.

GAHH!!! Shit shit shit!!! I have to do my project!! What am I doing!!

Okay so before I go (and I would probably come back to edit this AGAIN), ponder on 'We are all Africans' courtesy of my soci tutor Kelvin Low.

I am so -

I don't know what to say... uncertain?

Went out with Sleepy today. I really like spending time with you, Sleepy. Went for dinner at Mos and then shopped around Heeren. Ended up at Cine eating icecream. Sorry I made you go to Black, I didn't know how tired you were.

Anyway... Happy Birthday Mel!!!

Here I go again

Why am I always blogging recently? Maybe I could change the blog title to 'The Complain Blog'. I think that will work. Very simplistic la... but so true. Complain complain complain. So unappreciative la you, Chris. (See here I am talking to myself again.)

So... got the results for my asians market project back.
10/15 for report
4/5 for presentation
It's so dismal, but what can I do right? I think we did the best we could already, given time constrains and stuff.
And! Who knew she wanted so much emphasis on numbers?? Grah... This is a marketing module! Why are there so many numbers!!!

This morning I was at Edward's getting coffee (my other morning coffee haunt)
Edward - 'So how's school?'
Chris - 'Shitty stressful!'
Edward laughs
Edward - 'It's so strange. If you go out and ask anyone at all, probably no one will say they like studying. So why is school institutionalised?'
Chris - 'EXACTLY!!!!! Like paying money to torture myself'

See... we are all stupid people.

In an effort to lift my spirits up, I tried listening to Everclear's 'Wonderful' thinking, well if the title's called Wonderful, it should lift my spirits. Then -

I just want my life to be the same
Just like it used to be
Some days I hate everything
I hate everything
Everyone and everything
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now...
I don't wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now


Wah. Not the happiest song in the world. Guess should stick to Des'ree

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold

You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard

You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger

You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm

You gotta stay together

All I know, all I know, love will save the day


Dobedo.

And I want to be as fabulous as her -

Happy days

Yay... met the deadline for PH2202. Was in a bit of a rush, filling out answers like at 8 am in the morning. Was still doing the MCQ sheet in school (at science) at about 930! Luckily managed to finish in time. Walked to lecture 27 to hand it in. Actually quite unfair cause she said the deadline was 10am, but she was about to leave at 930?! Thank goodness I decided not to check the answers :( and met her on the way to lecture hall. Forgot her name so I went 'Dr... er can I hand this in?'

Anyway, hur. I've apparently been to Spinelli's at Science so much that the Spinelli's guy now recognises me. :P Maybe that's cause I always order the same thing (only now I've 'upgraded' from small to medium) hm... made small talk, which always makes me feel awkward, makes me feel like I babble too much. Heh.

And!! Apparently I make faces that are cute!! :D Yay.

ETA1 - Erm... Maybe Happy days is not really a good entry title. I am so sian now!!! Was about happy until... about 2-3. Then I don't know why, my mood started to droop a little. Gah... What's wrong with me? Only perk was talking to him, and also thank goodness for friends. Thanks Mel for driving me back... I was so sian, if I had to take a bus back my sianess would reach a level where I will sit on the bus and refuse to move. And thanks for supporting me, Mel :)

Haha... Why do I keep using 'sian'? Hmmm... :D I can't remember any other time someone said they were proud (or rpoud) of me. Not even in a jokey sense. So that was really nice.

Oh ya... I got an A- on my SS2202 project. It's disappointing, but I think I'll survive. See. That's what happens when you have too high expectations. I don't know. I've been feeling really shitty after that. It's stupid when you have something like A- and you go around berating yourself, but I really had very high expectations for this. It's geog, for goodness sake... I like geog and well I'm good at it. So I can't stand it when I don't do well.

But I really liked today's debate session for tutorial though. It's fun.

Help! I'm wallowing in self pity!

Fawnnnn....


The pair of shoes all of us were salivating over. It's too gorgeous!!! Damn, I hope VNC or Charles and Keith do knockoffs on this, cause it costs 500 USD. Like who in the right mind would buy it. Unless they are Carrie Bradshaw or something Posted by Hello

The one where Chris procrastinates AGAIN

I'm supposed to do my work, but surprise surprise I couldn't concentrate again. So I'll post photos! :D

Yanting and me with messy hair (I am the one with messy hair, I mean) This was preceding the crazy and surreal moment while I watch YT, Ade and Ryl go mad over taking pictures. Haha... (Unlike me, so demure.. hoho) Posted by Hello

Gobbledygook

Last night was nice, spent it with today'sdate. Went for dinner at Westmall and then at Little Guilin. Haha... and someone kept being suspicious that he will get mugged?! Hahaha... Silly. Urm... think I'll write more in the other blog.

Anyway. Gah!!! I'm so behind on my work! I need to do the perfumes and cosmetics quiz like asap... cause it's due tomorrow!!!!

Bleah.

I'm so lousy!

I'm like, the epitomy of procrastinate.

Hm.
(By the way, this is why I came online for a while... I'm not a stalker! hmpf)

I had an early start to the day. Woke up at about 7 (actually practically nagged out of bed by mum) to go to some far away place in the east for Qing Ming Jie... erm... to 'sao mu' or literally 'sweep graves'. I was quite young when granddad died - was in primary one, I think. But I do have memories of him, and do miss him. Got to meet Xuanxuan, my niece!!! She's so adorable, and so ... not fat but I don't know... roly poly! So cute. I didn't dare to carry her though, I'm always afraid to carry babies, I think they are really fragile.

Later Alex and I went to er... some place in Douby Ghout to play pool. We are stupid la... like there are pool places open at 930 on Sunday... what kind of no life people play pool at 930 on Sunday right?! Anyway, we could only find one that is open, and that place was yucky... everything was so sticky... :/ Then had Big Breakfast at Macs. I love Big Breakfast!

Hm... and that's pretty much the productive things I did.

Then I got home and the rest is procrastinate. I don't know la... so much for library-ing.

Ok, I got to go meet JH soon. Maybe I'll go shop around happening Westmall as well.

Tra la la

Hm... I'm not sure if I should write a full account of what happened.
Ok la... I prefer writing to doing my project anyway... so... maybe will go to woodlands lib later to study.

It's 1015 and I'm still lounging around the house in my pajamas and bizad windbreaker... it's cold and rainy!! I love it. Too lazy to get breakfast though, so I think I'll eat the present Kelvin gave us yesterday and make my own coffee - it's super ring by the way. I think Kelvin's too adorable as a tutor.

Hm... yesterday was a very good day. Very very good. =)

Morning - Ok, so I skipped perfumes lecture in the morning for like the first time ever... how could I!! I love perfumes! Anyhow, I was late also for Soci tutorial... which made me sad, cause I don't like to be late for soci tut. Kelvin's a great tutor; I think I should have told him that.
Last last semester I toldl my film art tutor Gilbert Yeo during the last tutorial that I really enjoyed the lessons and thanked him for the great lectures, but it came out all weird. So maybe I guess I'm not so good at that. But yay! I got 25/30 for my soci test!!!! Hahah... I was not expecting it at all.

Afternoon - Met Sam for lunch!!! *hugs bestest friend* Haven't seen her for such a long time! (Actually that's not true, cause I just met her for the Adidas sale, but I miss that girl! Maybe it felt like a long time cause lots of things happened) Anyhoo, met her at Holland V, had lunch and we went shopping. I got myself a pair of adorable new shoes from X:odus! Shopped around HV, and ya... thanks for being so protective of me :)

Evening - Went to meet D at Orch. Erm... striped shirts are cute. Someone got picked up by Don/Dawn. Someone's becoming the next actor-model-director-host-singer and overturning Aaron Aziz. =P Either that or he's going rollerblading. Whahah. To kino to get Mike's replaced xmas present, then to Marche to eat. Later we went to Cine, this Coca Cola place where you can play games. Erm... it was nice, thanks for the watch :) And the really elaborate plan... haha. I like sitting in the red sofa though, and I like to play the games... although I didn't win =( People watching and rating at Lido was fun. :D

Later we went to some Singapore Fashion Festival party at Rouge. (What's the deal with Rouge?? Suddenly they are like hosting everything!) His friend got us in... the same friend that Fiona Xie talked to! Hahaha... FX's like a little high, I think. She's so pretty though, and I'm so envious of her figure!

K la I'll hide the following paragraph. Cause... I want to write it down, but maybe not everyone wants to read it, cause... too much information. Highlight the text to see what is written.
[And - I don't know what the name of the building is still... Perhaps I'll find out later. Perhaps I like to use 'perhaps'. Haha... I'm not mean! I'm only making you miss me more. =P Hearts you loads too, miss you loads =) Ps - you are totally bf material.]
