One of my many birthday wishes is to be able to celebrate my birthday with someone in particular. A friend whom I just got to know, a friend whom I really cherish, a friend whom I enjoy talking to despite our many differences in culture and country. God knows how much I hated and despised people from "that country" and He humbled me by sending this friend into my life. Now, I look up to them and even respect them. I really hope to be able to celebrate my birthday with this friend but there's one obstacle -
I dare not ask.
Darn, why am I always such a coward?! =X
**
Anyway, school's starting very soon. Haiz... I'm going to miss all my friends.... Especially Fleur! :D
Hey Fleur, I know you'll be reading this because you're my one and only fan. Haha... =P For the past few weeks, we've been doing so many things together. I'll never forget all the crazy things that we've done together. Shopping,
eating, cooking, Sentosa, Haw Par Villa, singing and walking! You're the one with the best voice, the one with the most guts, the one with the most emotions, the one with the most tears and the one who has added more colours in my life. I really enjoyed myself tremendously throughout the weeks with you. I will really miss you when school starts. Jia You for your course k? I know you can do it!
Once a friend, always a friend :) :)

Outing with Sheng Siong friends!Met up with Mei Yan and Fleur at Lakeside. We followed MeiYan to a temple at Queenstown. Hmm... Chatted with the elder there and learnt quite a lot of things. Got to know more about Buddhism. Great exposure! :)
After that, we went to Clementi and met with this guy called Ah Yong. He works at Sheng Siong too! We went K-Lunch at Clementi's KBox. The lunch wasn't nice at all. -.-
MeiYan and I :)
After singing, we took 154 back to Taman Jurong because Ah Yong wanted to go Har Par Villa. So we met up with another guy called Ah Cai and this girl called LiJuan. Similarly, both are working at Sheng Siong too.
The 4 of us on 154!
Us at S-11's toilet. Heh...
At S-11
We took 30 to Har Par Villa! Been ages since I last went there. Heh... But the place didn't change much eh. It was very deserted and ulu... I saw like about only less 10 visitors there. No wonder they don't charge entrance fees anymore. Well, there wasn't anything interesting there anyway. Let the pictures do the talking! :)




Had a fun and interesting day today! I certainly cherish the Malaysian friends whom I've met in Sheng Siong during the short 7 days being a cashier. =)
One last photo to end the post... We can be model cashiers for Sheng Siong! Haha. =)

昇菘, 全是为了你... =P
Oh my gosh, I feel so auntie all of a sudden. Heh.
**
Bidding starts next Monday! Quite excited about it. Heex... Thank goodness Ying Rou will be helping HuiMin and I. Hopefully, we can watch Harry Potter after that. We've been talking about it since weeks ago but seems like something always happen last minute and we have to postpone it. Haha...
**
Starting a new tuition tomorrow morning. Heard some horror stories about that Primary 2 terror. Haha... Hope nothing goes wrong eh... =X

Alright, my eyelids are getting heavy. Going to sleep now. Till then!

Found a very interesting blog.
Sibeh SianGo read it, it's very funny!

My voice is back, but it still sounded quite weird. And the left part of my throat is hurting like mad and I can feel a lump at the top of my throat. I can't even swallow my saliva in peace. And, my right eye is super red now. Argh! Hope I'll be fine tomorrow and not worse, because I really look forward to my outing with MeiYan and Fleur! :)

I'm very hungy now eh. But there's nothing much to eat. Sigh!

I'm struggling... It's a battle between pride and friendship. I don't know which way to go. My mind focuses on pride and yet my heart tells me otherwise. Should I just swallow my pride and say sorry? I'm afraid... What if the result is not the one that I desire? What if things become worse? I will be even more upset than before. Should I just forget everything and pretend that we are strangers? Haiz... I don't understand why a friend can make me hurt so much. NOT, we didn't even start off as friends. Sigh! I really don't know what to do.
I'm leaving for a 1 night camp later in the morning. Will be back Tuesday morning. Hope it will be fun! =)

We quarrelled, again. Seems like our friendship is a rather unstable one. I'm tired already... Darn, I shall not bother about it anymore. That person is not worth it. =)
Anyway, I've finally figured out what the requirements for FASS is, thanks to HuiMin! haha =) Ok, I need to take 1 Singapore Studies, 2 GEMs, and 4 Exposure Modules by 2nd Semester. Hmm... Okay, here are my newly modified choices. Heex...

4. PL 1101 E Introduction to Psychology
5. EC 1101E Introduction to Economic Analysis
And...

For back up. Heex...

2nd post for the day! Haha... I've got nothing better to do lah. =P Anyway, I just came back from lunch with Lorna. She drove to me Anchorpoint and we ate at Secret Recipe. I forgot to take photo of the chicken lasange
(dunno how to spell eh). Anyway, it was quite nice! I ordered this walnut brownie thing as dessert. Didn't really like it... It has a weird taste.. =X

Received a necklace and a pouch from her!

She made the necklace herself. Nice right? I'm so touched... Heex..

The photo below is the only one I have of Lorna. Heh... Quite outdated... We took it in January at Vivocity when we celebrated her birthday.

Cheers to our friendship! =)
Was browsing through some photos and I came across this ridiculous-looking one which Karen made. Hahaha! =)

Was watching Infernal Affairs I the other day. I've always loved the movie mainly because Andy Lau is one of the lead actors lah. Heh... Another reason why I like the movie is because the movie potrays a real side of human nature. Life consists of too much lies, deceits, betrayals and greed. As we grow up, we face even more of these complex situations. How I wish sometimes that I will never grow out so that I'll be sheltered and protected from all those things. Am I making any sense? Or am I thinking too much? Haa... Whatever.
Sian... I still need to go bookstore to help my tuition kid search for a suitable assessment book. Haish...
Think I shall stop blogging now. Going for a camp with Wenxiu and Fleur next Monday! Hope it'll be fun ya! =)

Was reading through the list of modules available at the NUS website. Hmm... These are some of my preferred choices...
1. Introduction to Psychology
2. Introduction to Economic Analysis
3. The nature of Language
4. Introduction to World Religions
5. Introduction to Social Work
6. Research and Statistical Methods I
I think I need to take some Singapore Studies thingy too, right? Heh... Actually I still don't know anything about the requirements... Shall wait till I attend the talks before finalising everything. Added a 6th one just in case I can't get in to any one of my choices. Heh heh... Oh my, school is really starting. I DON'T WANT! Sigh!
Was reading XiaXue's blog the other day. Haha... Her posts are really entertaining. But I have to agree on what she wrote about this Steven Lim guy. He's really... OMG! I remembered meeting him along the streets of Orchard last year and he was asking my friends and I to trim eyebrows. With all the bad light on him, will anyone ever dare to let him handle their eyebrows? LOL!
I still can't stop listening to Andy Lau's " 牧笛".. So nice lah! The lyrics is so touching, though I can't really understand some of the words. Heh... My chinese is becoming rusty...
在一座遥远的重远山,
有个是年少牛郎.
他每天勤奋的牧牛羊,
他每天勤奋的牧牛羊,
有一天老青牛带他到清湖畔,
仙女们三五沐浴梳妆.
莫名的勇气他拾起一件衣裳,
刹那间地摇天晃.
红銮星它为你下凡,
你!这一生我唯一的期待.
七夕雨也为我飘来,
我!注定是一辈子缠绵纠缠.
天长也哭不尽,
我对你思念惆怅.
我也只能夜夜地望着,
那每一次鹊桥两岸.
触犯了天条的真心该怎么办,
原来良缘要别人审判.
那一份我和你无尽的真情爱,
银河星也分不开.
红銮星它为你下凡,
你!这一生我唯一的期待.
七夕雨也为我飘来,
我!注定是一辈子缠绵纠缠.
天长也恸不尽,
我对你思念惆怅.
我也只能夜夜地望着,
那每一次鹊桥两岸.
每当我忍不住不停的思念你,
倾听我吹的牧笛.
遗忘吧以往,
王母娘娘的心也许会为我哭泣.
喔!滴沥沥!滴沥沥!滴沥!
你!这一生我唯一的期待.
滴沥沥!滴沥沥!滴沥!
我!注定是一辈子缠绵纠缠.
滴沥沥!滴沥沥!滴沥!
我!注定是一辈子缠绵纠缠.
天长也恸不尽,
我对你思念惆怅.
我也只能夜夜地望着,
那每一次鹊桥两岸,那每一次鹊桥两岸.
Darn, that horrible headache still refused to go away despite me taking 2 panadols yesterday. Argh!

I really can't understand how "
people from that particular country" think and behave. They behave totally in a different way and I find it so hard to maintain the friendship. Wah piang eh! I'm so frustrated with
that particular person lah! Damn it! =X
Went to Clementi to collect some things in the morning. Took 154 there and I was cursing and swearing throughout the whole journey. I waited half an hour for that bus to arrive but when it arrived, the bus driver refused to let me board because it was too crowded. I had to wait for the next bus which came around 10 mins later. =X So I boarded the next bus and it was super crowded too! Oh man, I can't imagine myself being squashed like sardine everyday in future when I travel to NUS. Argh...
Finally settled most of the NUS registration things already. It's so troublesome eh... Why can't the school just settle everything for us like primary and secondary school? Haiz... The sacrifices of adulthood... =S
Andy Lau's new song is superb! So nice... The lyrics are so meaningful too. I must buy his new album when it's released. Note:
July 25th! Haha... Can't wait!
Went down to meet my ex-GP tuition teacher under my block just now. It's been a long time since I last met her. I owe my 'A' level GP grade to her. Within a few lessons, she has helped me improve by 2 grades! Wow! I feel so grateful to her!
Shall go finish my Nicholas Sparks book now! =)
I'm so disappointed with you. So many years of friendship, you don't even treasure it. Forget it then.

Was chatting with Ah Bao till 2am in the morning and I'm so tired now but I'm happy! Hahaha... Anyway, she said her work permit might be expiring soon. Hope she can manage to get it renewed so she can stay in Singapore longer! Heex...
Went to Jurong Point yesterday afternoon with Fleur. There was some food fair and we went on an eating spree! Haha...

This noodle thingy was quite nice. But the person put too much vinegar and so it was a bit too sour.

I love
kueh tu tu! Oh man, brought back so many childhood memories. But I still prefer the ones sold at Jurong West market. :)

Subway was having some
longest-bread-in-Singapore thingy and we got to eat free bread! Heex... Very nice!

After eating the free sample, we decided to buy the footlong bread to share. Wah, I can't believe I'm such a glutton. Haha..

Lastly, this ice-cream is delicious and cheap! 1 buck each only! And there's real strawberry inside!
Had fun... =)
Oh yah, I ate Crystal Jade last Friday with Auntie SweeLan and YingRou. Chatted with YingRou and got to know a little bit more about life in NUS. She's doing her Masters in Life Science now. So envious eh... Hope I'll be able to get Masters too, or at least an Honours. If not I can't do anything with a basic degree in Psychology if that's what I really major in. Haha...
Haiz... Don't feel like going back to school leh. :(

Anyway, did I mention that I bought Pirates of the Caribbean 1 VCD the other day? Haha... Now I have 4 collections of Johnny Depp's movies! So happy! Can't wait for Pirates 3 DVD to be released. Heex...

Yay! My small and pitiful collection of Johnny Depp's movies! Haha =P
Went to meet Fleur yesterday at BoonLay to check out prices for our Genting trip. Apparently all the travel agencies have the same price, so we wasted our time and efforts going to every single travel agency at BoonLay. Heh. Ate Nasi Lemak at the market there and the curry was really delicious! Wah, I'm getting fatter and fatter already. Walked all the way from BoonLay to Sheng Siong to collect our photos. It's such a nice feeling to go for a walk after a heavy meal especially when there's a friend walking with you. Can ease digestion some more... Heex... =)
Ok, actually I've got nothing much to blog about. Am just trying to blog as many posts as I can because school is starting soon and I want to make full use of my last few weeks of freedom blogging like nobody's business. Haha!
Wonder when the NUS registration package will arrive. So slow eh... =X

It's raining now. I always feel exceptionally depressed whenever it starts pouring, especially late at night, like now. I still remember, many years ago, when I was caught in a heavy downpour and went to school drenched. You saw me, and gave me a pack of tissue. I still keep the whole packet. I ain't kidding. Those little actions of yours are still etched in my mind, and they're all standing strong.
Sometimes in the middle of the night, I stay still and search deep within my heart. I tried to find an answer but I couldn't. Years passed, people come and go, different footprints appear in my life but, your footprints have never once been erased.
I go to bed every night dreaming about the day I will get to meet you again but I wake up every morning knowing that my dream will never come true. This has been my daily routine since the day you left my life. Different crushes come my way now and then, but I know it's you I care for the most at the end of the day...
When will all these ever end? Don't ask me to just cry it all out because I hate crying. I don't know why... I just don't like the feeling of being weak and vulnerable. Haish...
Can I include you in my birthday wishlist? Sigh! Guess I'm just being silly...
Imissyousomuch.Anyway, this is for
FLEUR.


Girl, I'm so happy our friendship is getting stronger as days go by. Cheers! =)
Oh man, I'm so jealous of that ANDOX. Haa! Can you believe it? Andy Lau actually made him with his own hands! Go see here:
The birth of Andox. Anyway, Andox means Andy + Ox... haha.. So creative right? See, Andy Lau is sooooooooo talented.

Was bored. So I tried this test... Haha... So funny... =P

Oh my gosh, less than a month to the starting of school. I've played for about 7 odd months already and I don't feel like going back to school. School means less play time, no more late night suppers, no more lazing in bed in the morning, no more breakfast with friends and no more shopping as and when I like. Oh my... Sounds too depressing. I must make full use of the remaining few weeks to play like mad. I will definitely miss my holidays. =(

I've decided to end our friendship. Haiz... Though painful, I'm sure that is a correct decision. I used to hate people from "
that country" and I want it to remain the same. That is the real me... We live in 2 totally different worlds. I was there only for a week of experience, I'm not prepared to leave my heart there. I don't belong there, and I don't wish to have anything to do with the place anymore. I want my life back. We could have been good friends, but I'm too cowardy. I'm afraid to invest in a friendship which gives me no sense of security. I don't want to be the one who gets hurt in the end.. As I'm writing this now, I feel like my heart is breaking. It just goes to show how much she means to me as a friend.
If it's the end of us, so be it.
Am I too selfish?
I feel so sad... Haish...
Ah Bao, I'm sorry...

Sentosa trip with MeiYan and Fleur!Fleur, Mei Yan (my cashier friend from Sheng Siong) and I met at Lakeside station before setting off to HarbourFront. Heex... So excited since this is the first time we went out with MeiYan. =)
We went to Vivocity first to eat breakfast. Patronised this eatery called "Toast Box" I think. Their toast was delicious! I ordered butter sugar while Fleur had peanut butter. Woah, the best toast I've ever had. Haha...

Our toast! :)
After breakfast, it was off to Sentosa for us! We went to Palawan Beach. Fleur "stole" a mat and we had picnic over the beach. Haha... We taught MeiYan how to play
truth or dare. Had fun knowing more about her and how her life in Malaysia is. Took lots of photos! These are the more decent ones. Haha...





Okay, I know I look damn retarded in this photo. But the sea really looked nice when we were there... =P

After Sentosa, we went back to Vivocity to drink coffee at Coffeebean. I had Caramel Iced Blended again. I like the sweetness of the drink.. Haha...

Took Bus 30 back to Sheng Siong to visit Ah Bao. Heex... Can't wait to go out with her!
Had fun! =)

Judging by the frequency of blog posts that I'm writing, you can see how bored I am at home nowadays. Haha!
Ever since I quitted the cashier job, I've been feeling so relaxed and relieved every night because I no longer have to face the crowd at Sheng Siong. But after chatting with Fleur last night on the phone, I realised I actually do miss some of the people there though. Especially Mei Ting, the chief cashier, whom I didn't get the chance to say goodbye to her and Ah Bao, the supervisor who is forever so cool yet warm - contradicting eh, I know but that's what I like about her character. Heex... I miss Mei Yan too, my partner at the counter and lastly, I miss this Malaysian guy whose name I don't even know but he was very friendly. Haha...
Was watching the premiers of Pirates of the Caribbean at different places like London, France, LA and Japan. Oh man... How I wish Johnny Depp would visit Singapore! Haa... How could he visit Japan and yet not step into our little red dot? So jealous... Haha... Anyway, can't wait for his new movie to be screened in cinemas next year! He's collaborating with Tim Burton again. Yay, I like Tim Burton's movies. =P
Went to Orchard yesterday and I bought this Roxy handbag. So happy!
Going out to meet Linnet at Bugis later! Quite nervous cos I've not seen her for 2 odd years. Haha...
Go read Andy Lau's latest posts! He's so cute... Haha...
Getting very random. Shall stop now.

Just came home from tuition with Karen's brother. Went to eat the duck noodle at Jurong West with Karen after church service. I feel so nostalgic just looking at the duck noodle. Those were the days when my dad... Haiz...
Anyway, I finished reading this book called
A pain in the neck by Grace Chow. She had a tumour that refused to go away and eventually, she passed away. In her book, she wrote that
"Learning to die is a strange process. You can't really learn to die, until you have first learnt to live. But once you started learning to live, it is pretty difficult to want to die." Wow, such simple yet meaningful words. It simply potrays the contradictions and complexity in life. I love the way she writes and it's so funny reading about her making fun of the
Father God, Baby God and Holy Goh. Figure out yourself who she means. =P
I woke up at 4am in the morning and suddenly felt a force pushing me to my Bible (It's strange, I've never felt it before). Being curious, I randomly flipped my bible and I saw this phrase:
Everything is meaningless. What is God trying to tell me? Maybe I have placed my priorities at the wrong places? I don't know... I've never been a committed christian, of course I can't comprehend what the message means. Anyway yah... =X
Oh my, it's 2.30pm now. I have to rush for another tuition now. Sigh! Making money is hard, but thank goodness I love kids. Hahaha... It makes the whole tuition lesson easier. =)
