2009's coming to an end

Prolly won't have the time to blog tomorrow so i'll do it today, right now.
Lets do the annual routine:

January:
Had a blissful new year with Ron. Enjoying holidays but found out that i got posted to SRJC. Initially upset/annoyed/fustrated but not anymore. Still remember some of my resolutions for 2009; abided to almost all of them. (Be a better gf, study hard, spend wisely... etc) Only one which i've not only disappointed myself in but also everyone else & Him. That is-- to find a new place of worship.

February:
Loved my new class, 1A01'09. Forever grateful to MOE for posting me to SRJC cos A1's what makes JC life enjoyable for me throughout the year. Had a good birthday with Ron & also one of the best Valentines' in my life. Will never forget the seafood and pastries @ the restaurant and how we walked to esplanade together to view a Live performance.

March:
Had an enjoyable trip to Perth with my cousins. I thank God for them because they're the best i can ever get in life. Will never forget how much i missed Clifford cos he went to Perth to study, and how i slept with Eileen and him on the same bed chatting till dawn, having the utmost fun ever. That was true happiness for me.

April:
Got things sorted out with Ron and that was the turning point in our relationship; i changed for the better, stopped being so chavinistic and hot-tempered and bitchy, had a perfect balance of school and family and relationship.. but it didn't last for long.

May:
1 year with Ron & i was truly amazed with myself and also him. Celebrated with a nice meal @ Hanabi, King's Road. Love it and i wanna go back there soon! Recieved sucky results for mid-years and knew that i was too complacent ever since i came to SRJC.

June:
Camp ASPIRE was really good. Got to know some really good friends there and leadership in SRJC's been really helpful with the camp. Had a good holiday while preparing myself to mug for promos

July:
Will Run 2009; with Andrea. Fucking 14km and i relt contented. Had Yoga photoshoot with Ethel and Pilates exco and the turnout was satisfying. Ron's sis got married and i was honoured to be allowed to sit with the family and also asked to go on stage for champange toast; awkward much.

August:
Baybeats was average, school was average

September:
Start of my promotional exams and i was freaking out cos i only studied intensively 4 days before each paper and was totally unprepared and regretting my actions. Still managed to hurdle pass each paper without tearing the question papers up.

October:
Commendation day with 1a01 & it was a hell lot of fun. Got to know my promotion and was very happy. The happiest but also the saddest month of my life cos i broke up with Ron, & till this day i don't get why it seems like everyth's my fault when i've done nothing but to initiate a breakup.

November:
Got to find out that rachael's experiencing the exact same thing as i was, going through the same torment as i was everyday. Glad we were there for each other and lent our support for each other. 've never had such a messy breakup (also never had such a serious relationship) so it was extremely tough for me to pull through. My bestfriends have access to my private blog so they'll know better.

December:
Eventful month. Party-ed my life away and i've never been like this. Was never like that. Will never be like this again. Whatever it is, i'm glad i've got very good friends by my side. Esp Ezra Benaiah Josh Rudy Val Frie Eugene Janise April and Rachael. Got to know a very good man better this month too and i'm sure, Encill, you'll be there for me no matter what.

________

Despite the rough terrains of 2009; the climb-- both up & down, had been tiresome and fustrating, sometimes satisfying and enjoyable, sometimes exciting and exhilirating.
Whatever i've gone through, was all worth the pain, the time, the effort.
& i've never regretted 2009 although it had been a tough year.
I foresee that 2010 will be much tougher with A levels and also a new beginning with new people, hence i'm taking 2009 as a trial in my life, as a mini-hurdle in life, as a training ground for strong foundation.

2010:
1. Family: still in priority
2. Studies: working extra hard toward my goals
3. Relationships/boys: lower profile
4. Fun: less
5. Money: Save

For now, i cannot wait for life to be more exciting than it ever was.

good old times; long gone

Do people have short-term memory or do they just refuse to come to terms that things are just not so easily forgotten?

Just returned home from Yoga meeting, glad i've got an efficient new teacher and an uprising very strong exco.Dowanna give them titles as to who shall be Vice-pres/capt etc.
I just want the 3 of us to be the exco and everyone shall be equal to me.
Settled alot of things today.

Currently waiting for 3 people to come to my place.
Yvonne coming over to take pictures from me,
Val & Jan for tuition.

Can't wait for 2010, can't wait to be yours.

Boring day~

Leaders meeting in sch @ 1pm then back home for tuition w Janise & Val @ 4.30pm.

This week's eventful but messy & i've yet to organise my time properly, i know i have things on but idk when and what time. Can't wait for 2010 so i can use my new schedule book i bought the other day from Kino :D

Gna go schedule-book shopping w Josh this week then Cafe Iguana for some drinks,
and meet Hemant to choose a gift for his friend from Chomel.
Meet Janise for Cafe Iguana again,
& prolly dharsh and april and rachael to ketchup.

Will plan my time, soon!

Loverboy

Encill only has one tee-shirt he considers nice, kewt ttmax!
No wonder he's always in polo-tees (considered casual) or long sleeved collared tees.
Today before we left his place i forced him to wear a nice pair of black assics (i think) shoe with gold deco (really nice shoe).
He ended up wearing some Pedro leather shoe, again.

Dear Encill, i'll be waiting for a nice day/date ( you know what i mean).

Punishment

What the punishments were if we were to lose at Indian Poker:

started out from advertisments like these to music videos to movies (will upload in future)

Last night's stay @ Mandrin Hotel was good, booked 2 connecting rooms and we sure made a hell lot of noise!

Before that i was with Josh @ Orchard eating satay and having pastamania (i know, the contrast) before Clifford came to meet me @ the lobby to pick me up.
Went to pack Macs from outside heeren back to the hotel @ 4am with Clifford and Frederick, but when we were back everyone else fell asleep.

Josh came over to collect documents before we went to HGmall for lunch.

Rudy met me @ PS starbucks around dinner-time & we had dinner @ Pizza hut!

Rudy" eeew i look like a chipmunk here" HAHAHAHAHA agree

Walked around clarke quay & decided to go to Cafe Iguana.

I had Iguana Colada & he had White Russian

He, as a bartender, was complaining how the white russian's concoctions were inaccurate etc hahaha. But it was really gross anw. & my Colada was much cheaper than his disgusting White Russian hahahaha.

Game Over

I miss life @ it's simplest:

where i go to school from Monday-Friday,

come back home & do some work, watch tv, sleep,

spend my weekends with my bestfriends and family,

or study at a library, cafe, macs or starbucks

& when i was... honestly content with my life.

*********************

The holidays had transformed me.

Deprived of fun and entertainment for a year, i go into a mode of adrenaline; full swing, just this month. 've never been so wild so daring and so rebellious during the span of 2009.

-

JC's seriously fun-deprived & socially lacking in comparison to poly or other instituitions.

What to do? I chose this path myself, have to be responsible towards it.

{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}

I'm just so sick of having fun right now.

Are guys all this mean and unreasonable?
Come on, one of you prove us girls wrong, please?

Starting to doubt humans with dicks.
(ps: don't worry won't ever turn lesbian)

lone

Hi i went shopping alone today from orchard all the way to vivo.
Bought a top on impulse cos its dirtcheap (opening sales @ NEW),
a schedule book from Kino, a bohe ring from vivo & candy from CandyEmpire.

Met Rudy for a few minutes to pass him some gummy before he head to powerhouse for work!
Supposed to go to powerhouse today for flea + gig + after-party since i have a free ticket but damn lazy to catch up with all my old friends there.
Had a short exchange with Rudy, hugged each other goodbye & i trained home.

Will meet him tomorrow since its his off-day & we have lots to ketchup about our lives!
Hope Josh comes to my place after i'm home or before i leave!
____________

Gna watch amazing race on youtube now HAHA

Hi everyone i'm so damn bored.

Waiting for Josh to come to my place to discuss business w my parents before i go shopping with him for awhile (maybe).
I feel like shopping alone today though..
or with someone i'm really comfortable with.

What should i wear ah? Dress, heels?
Or leggings, or.. urgh.
I'll just shop till i'm tired & sit @ starbucks the rest of the day.

Hate swollen eyes in the morning & no matter how much roll-on you apply they're still painful and red and itchy and bulging, so fugly can.

Damn random, this post. hehehe
Next week's gna be so so so packed.

Tuesday- Benaiah :)
Wednesday- cycling w Janise!
Thurs- family party
Friday- Church and shopping with Josh

My goal today is to get a schedule book. Hehe

Deus Ex Machina
http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=192566A37B3CC435


I know i really suck at writing reviews & don't usually write them; unless i'm really impressed.
DEM's a 6 year-old local death-metal band that has successfully managed to launch their albums on an international level.


http://www.metal-archives.com/review.php?id=251189
Going against the norm of Metal lyrical content surrounding death, war, gore etc, Deus Ex Machina have tackled a very interesting idea by basing their lyrics on cloning and Asimov's classic I,Robot. Original, with highly poetic lyrics too! Unusual in most modern Metal bands,but a huge plus for Deus Ex! Now to the music - we have a mixture of old-school death and thrash, with classic metal and progressive elements thrown into the mix. Aggression and melody work in solid systematic tandem throughout the album........


I'm not just writing this just cos my friend's the vocalist, but cause i really think DEM has the potenital and are one of the few local bands that do make it far.
Can't possibly write as well as the reviewist as fore-mentioned, but can only give a thumbs up! to my friend and his very good band that improves gradually over these 6 years and managed to break out of the local scene to make Singapore proud.

You can buy their albums in stores now!
From Inokii, Hell's Labyrinth, CDBaby & CDUniverse..

OR

Download their music from itunes or youtube from the above link!

Can't believe i'm still crying cos of you,
can't believe i still bother what you do,
can't believe i actually ONCE loved you.

Was stupid then but will never be again.

_______________

A few days ago i met Encill @ Bukit Timah (again; really starting to love that area)
& wondered why he brought a bag (first time).
We walked to botanical gardens & sat down @ some pavillion or whatsoever.
Then suddenly, there were candles and glowsticks whatnot all around!
Music for the music-lover-pree too; some of them were coincidentally skating/dance songs.

Then from his bag he took out a bottle of white wine & 2 glasses;
i couldn't stop laughing!! hahahahahahahaahhahaahaha.
Pretty kewt & very sweet.

Thanks, i appreciated everyth!

Can't believe i just created another private blog for myself, hehe

5 hours of sleep & i think i'm full.
Never once knew that tears made such good breakfast.

Yumyum.

edit 1/ 10.53am

Hate it when i get accused or doubted.
Hate it when people i love don't believe me.
Hate it when i wake up only to feel disappointment sinking in.

*********************************************************************

****************************************************************

edit 2/ 11.12am

Can't get back to sleep & after that day i've developed a phobia of my loved ones not picking up my calls.

@ the same time, i don't want to impose my fear on a different person and get all angsty.

Was it even my fault?

Haven't worn this boyf shirt since.. 1 year or 1.5 years back? Suddenly remembered about it when i posted the pic with Esther Von and Vic here hahaha.

@ the pub. The live band rocks! we kinda made friends with them hahahhaa,

After that, we had supper @ a seafood restaurant!

While waiting for the food, camwhore first

The next day we prepare the drive up the mountain by shopping for groceries @ Giant beside the hotel.

Pearlly Caroline Pree Ern

Sis & I

Caroline and i in our coach

Hannie Fred Eileen

Our bungalow, like it alot!

3 of us shared one! I shared a room with Eileen :D
Balcony no.1: best for star-gazing!

The others went to their respective resorts to camwhore as well as settle down.
We're @ Balcony no.2: best for fresh air!

Fire place

i look like some china woman adveritsing some tour package LOL

HAHAHAHA!!

Fire place @ night while sis and i play bridge with Hannie and Ern @ Caroline's place.

yuck typical tourist pic

The cafe we have breakfast every morning

Hot spring @ Poring

Lower down the mountain so its not as cold (its very cold at our lodging)

Love you cousins!!!

Like the lighting

Clifford back from perth! :)

nice scenary

Went down the mountain the second last day and stayed @ promenade again.
Lime margarita for me =)

2 more jugs of beer then..

Played bridge again @ Ern's room before i go back to mine; slept with Eileen and Clifford!
Memories from perth, hahahaha.

Next morning

Sis & i

Went for city tour

Sorry i'm too lazy to blog in detail but..

I REALLY LOVED THE TRIP! Actually, i loved all trips with my cousins, more recent ones: Taiwan, Perth, and Kinabalu.
Close as we already are, these trips bond those of us in Sg even more! Don't worry Larry and Kevin from the states are coming back this sundayyyyy!!! =)))))))
We will have more quality time together when we're back.

(love)

suddenly feeling all like shit again~
idk why but i still get sensitive over trivial matters i see on certain journals.
&.. this is taking way too long.
Way too long for me to get it settled & done with.

Pree, hurry up

Back in SG

Finally back in SG; hate it when my phone has no auto-roam.
I felt so crippled w/o my phone!
Leaving it to beep/vibrate w all the missed calls and incoming messages nw,
've been going on since 15 mins ago.

LOTS of picas and Kinabalu was really really fun!
TTMax.
I still liked Taiwan more, heh.

But Kinabalu's experience was.. once in a lifetime.
Hot-springs, big bugalows to stay in, panting while climbing,
cousins helping each other and holding each other's hands while climbing,
the boys supporting the girls, great seafood, etc etc!

Talking about pictures, my camera's memory card was full by the second day & sis and i had to clear the "cui" photos again and again. haha whats new.
Can't believe i forgot to bring any sweater/jacket/hoodie!!!
The weather there's like... 18 degrees or someth, idk actually. Fucking cold la.

PHOTOS SOON!!!

last post before i return from Kota

Met Encill after his work yesterday evening @ Bukit Timah Crown Plaza area.
Had dinner @ some thai restaurant i kind of liked, & i just realised he wears ankle socks with leather shoes from Pedro. WEIRD!!!

I then went to irish pub with him reluctantly (cos i was in shorts).
But he insisted that it was a casual pub etc so aiya heck.
Had baileys & a buket (5 bottles) of Heineken.

He then took me for a longgggg stroll around the coolest estates in Sg.
Kings Road (where my sis' boyf stays) etc etc, & it did indeed brough back memories.
Am i destined to love those who all stay around the same area?
I swear its mere coincidence.

I'll miss your morning textes

random calls

dinner meet ups

weekends together

the warmth from your hands

your super kewt messages

&... everyth else about you!

Talk about being healthy & stopping all the comfort food;
i just ordered mac delivery extra value meal upsized.

BEST! - promise 2 extra rounds plus an extra set of Suranamaskara A & B of Yoga!!!

Comfort Food (Y)

Swear they're the most fattening, unhealthy & sinful food existing

BUT

Also the most comforting, happy & satisfying to consume.

********

After indulging myself in all the junk food this week to cheer myself up from all the dismay and sorrow i've been dwelling in, it's seriously time to exercise.
I can feel my chin, face, arms, inner thighs, hips, back, all getting fatter-- when its already so fat!

Cannot stand girls who go on diets or eat dieting pills to keep themselves "slim" and "healthy-looking", when they either:

1. suffer from eating disorders like bullimia/anorexia
2. starve themselves from food they actually love

Why be so deprived? Its in fact, disgusting.
What more, you can't be happy while restricting yourself.
______

Most of which diet for the sake of looking good- or to attract guys.

Come on, if you don't love yourself, nobody will love you.
& if a guy ever loves you only because you look good, ask him to go date a skeleton and fuck off =)

bus accident boi- suay!

Josh met me @ Kovan after his work & we had Hock lam's beef noodles for dinner.

Wore some black cardigan over my zipper dress and it actually looks nicer

that way~~ wore it w my blazer @ Genting.

So now maybe i might not sell it away hehe. I like his shirt's design alot alot.
We then went to Vivo, got ourselves Starbucks (ALEX'S WORKING THERE!) & sat @ the rooftop to chat.
Funny shit, cannot stop laughing about him and his first "girlfriend" or so he claims; during primary sch HAHAHA.

Candy Empire then he sent me back to Hg.

Met JK for supper i fucking full nao~

___________

Tomorrow:

wake up, run, yoga, lunch, shower, starbucks, then meet Encill for dinner after his work!
^^ yay! Finally..

************

BTW i'm flying off to Kota Kinabalu on Thursday, cannot wait to climb Mt Kinabalu w my cousins, & can't wait for Larry/Kevin to visit us from the states!!! (love).

December prog all packed but i hope i can squeeze in some time for christmas shopping!!
