heya! my apologies for this really late blog post! well i hadn't exactly been that busy.. i'm just too lazy to blog.. yeapz. and i'm kinda pissed for the past few days as Amnita has yet to return me my $250 and there are som many post-x'mas sale all over! well i stepped into Vivo a few days back and teh sight pf all the stores drove me to insanity as majority of their shop windows bear the sign reading: SALE. its simply irresistable for any girl, to grab the card to start shopping!!~ but well, to put some self-restraint on myself, i am not allowing myself to use NETS.. so well... i am now waiting for her to return me my cash.. something which will no doubt piss someone off... but well, he doesnt need to care about me anyway. your family life is much more important!
well, someone made me really upset earlier this month. but after a day of after-thought, i felt that it's absolutely pointless for me to be upset over his decision. i dont comprehend the reason why i get emotionally affected when he told me about his decision? i felt offended, which is actually pretty unreasonable of me to do so.. but i've decided that i'm absolutely not ready to be a mother of a child that's merely 5 years younger than myself?? i am just not ready for it and besides, i'm appalled by his "rash" decision... and also, a big thanks to jia ming who made this whole episode about this guy's actions, a big joke. haha.. jia ming's so funny la.. haha..
let me to talk abouot something more interesting now.. i hope.
Christmas week.. was it this week? i guess so.. feels like a long tiem ago.. was fun!!i had a christmas eve part at my gugu's house and it was great fun socialising with ppl whom i do not know. i got to get acquaintanced with a 25 year old teacher who used to be an "ah-lian", who has a tattoo.. haha.. its so interesting hearig more about her experience..and it was at therem that i kind-of learned how to play "dai-de".. well i guess most of you are very familar with this card game, but not me. they were so enthusiastic in teaching me how to play! i had great fun.. and my uncle was liek constantly bugging me to drink the white wine.. and i'm now regretting having not drank it.. ><
overall, i ate sooo much! i ate like a horse! there were so much chicken wings, beef, satay and etc! i had great fun on that day! and on christmas day, ii stayed home but my dad microwaved frozen pizza, beef and chicken wings! it was absolutely fun pigging out.. haha..
a day after x'mas, 26th dec, joyce tan shin and i went to tanglin to see the band! but i must admit that it was more of a socialising meeting for us. =X folowing that, i went out with them including hamimah,m to Orchard and we ate at Swensens. the fish baked rish is cool! i learnt loads about the local universities and foreign ones, a lot. and its pretty interestibnf to hear about such issues from someone who has just completed her A levels, and someone who is in year 2 of her poly, going yr 3. i had a great day and there was absolutely no regrets hanging out with them on that day! and to compelte the day, i bought a pair of black peep-toe heels from MONDO! the black heels are absolutely sexy. my first peep-toe heels! (:
on the 27th, mingyan hanged out at my house from afternoon 1pm till 8pm!! it was a terribly wonderful time! we chatted a lot and we exchanged x'mas gifts! her gift was a jaw-dropping one. but before i elaborate further about it, well weate lunch at my hse, before watching 3 VCDS, then makingour way to the supermarket to get tidbits and chocs, before i coming back home again to play a game of SCRABBLE! it was a simple yet memorable and meaningful day.. haha.. oi sound liek a couple.. haha..
here are the x'mas presents i received tis yr! its nothing much, but i must say that its the best this year! esp for someone who doesnt exacly celebrate christmas since i'm not a christian!
from my gugu- black FILA tee (lyca material! - stretchable)
from tanshin- a necklace (black rubber design as the stroing)
from mingyan- CLICK 5 CD album and a handmade monkey keychain, and a scroll!
i was taken aback when i saw teh album! i never expected someone to buy me something thats so costly for x'mas?? it looks more like a splendid b'day present, in my eyes.. and the keychain is so beautoful! its handmade! and oh man. the scroll is equally marvellous looking as the rest.. (: i am moved beyong words by her warm and sweet gestures.. BFF mingyan!! (:
i went out with celest a few days before x'mas, and it was so fun! and oh ya. that day was a hectic one for me! I met up with my IJC classmate noel in the national library at bugis, where he taught me on my math holiday assignment, and later accompanied me to Bras Basah to buy my chemistry solution book! i was jumping for joy when i saw it??! a CHEMISTRY solution book for teh written papers? (not the MCQ.. those can be found in Popular stores..) it costed me $17.95 which is actually pretty costly for q RedSpot book.. but its still worth it! (:
after bidding goodbye to noel who needs to go for his tuition, i made my way to collect my OLMPUS camera which was sent for repair, at High street centre.. i got lost laa.. i couldnt even recognise Funan mall when the bus stopped next to it. thankfully the bus driver was kind enough to gesticulate to me to drop at the bus stop.. i felt so silly! esp after i stood in front of it, and realised that someone has brought me there a few mths back.. and upon racking my brains, i realised that it was Joel, and remb that he's having a car now and i wont be facing this problem if i'm with him.... i felt a jolt of queasiness in my tummy but oh well, we both are happier being just friends.
and after that, i met celestine, who has dyed and curled her hair!! she dyed her hair semi reddish-brown. its a lovely shade of colour on her face. i feel happy and thankful for her that she hasn't chosen the right colours! (: we went to Bugis Street, and i literally shopped till i dropped. haha! it was my FIRST time shopping a bugis street! i never knew that it was such a wonderland for laddies' shoppers till my dad introduced that haven to me! haha.. i'm so glad that i've finally gotten a blouse that has buttons from the top to teh bottom, that low cut! its ideal for one to wear a coloured tube in it! or if i choose not to wear a tube, it is also fine! yuppie.. so i bought a pink and red coloured one,, trhe pink coloured blouse is really sweet and adorable looking! (: i also bought a white half blouse. its like the "half-jacket" that was of season a year anda half ago, with the exception that mine is of a different material: a more informal material, like lyca, and it doesnt have buttons to fasten the "jacket". mine requires you to tie! *gasp* its the one i've been waiting for ages.. its so tedious to find a nice one elsewhere? (:
and also, i realise that i've been bargaining the prices for plenty of items these days! haha.. and i'm improving in my bargaining technique! anyw a few days later, celestine and i met up informally, at jurong east and we... purchased a hat!! its a super nice looking hat... and excuse me, its not a cap nor is it a vicer.. it is those kind of laddies hat!! we saw a similar looking one at Accessorize, at $48.. but how much do you think we saw it at jurong east? we saw it for $10! haha... and i bargained for $9 and got it! wahahaa.. its super nice looking la~! mine is gretish-pink, with checkered boxes! haha.. my FIRST hat. lols. but its a fact. (:
although i've only shopped for clothes only on these few occasions this holidays, i must admit that my wardrobe is expanding.. this is due to my my very nice aunt! she's my gu-gu.. well, she bought me white long sleeve blouse that realy has style, a yellow low cut 3/4 sleeve ZARA blouse, and 2 green long sleeve blouses from Marks & Spencer. they are of very good material and are pretty! and she got me a couple of bags.. a black mini Elle handback, a backpack from Colours of Benetton, 1 brown bad and anotehr grey colour bag, both to carry books and a straw bag that also allows me to carry books. and before she had given all these, i bought myself a white bag that allows me to carry a book or 2. so i feel rather guilty..
thats how nice my aunt is. and due to that, i'm determined to be as generous as her! (:
i've been clearing my wardrobe so frequently late this year by giving my clothes to hamimah! and i feel happy when i do that as it benefits her in a way too. (: but despite that, my wardrobe is still as pack as ever. i guess the rate of clothes entering the closet is higher than the rate of them being given away. >< i simpky adore my clothes....
but meanwhile, i still have plenty of stuff i wish to get! my number one item is an ahEm. haha... i just want one of that as i'm tired of wearing tubes when i wear a low cut blouse.. haha.. second on the list is a black leggings/ stockings. a really good material.. it cost about $15.. following which is a coloured shawl.. it'll be nice to wrap in around teh neck.. haha.. or perhaps a scarf for the neck.. (: next in line are dresses or blouses witha different style. its just too complicated to describe..
in short, i just need more cash and i'm determined tostart looking for a job the moment my A levels are over next year! haha..
And as for another issue.. some of my friends seem particularly keen in being involved in a relationship? I suggest you should just talk to jia ming about it, which will clear up matters.. haha.. his sentiments about such issues was an eye-opener to myself, which proved to have changed my mentality so significantly that my longing to be with this guy has ceased. Such a result has no doubt changed my lifestyle and priorities in life, allowing me to take a greater rein of my life. I am thus very grateful towards jia ming! (:
And I must add that I’ve sent so many sms this month that I am at risk of exceeding my limit! This comes to me as a great surprise as the number of sms that I’ve sent for the past few months have been so dismal that I had considered canceling my handphone line. Perhaps no one would even realize so… haha.. how silly of me to think so..
And anyway, I changed my spectacles and I adore it! it’s a half-frame specs and its brown in colour and I must say that the $65 frame is very long lasting as the paint does not chip out, unlike my previous farme which costed like $25? Haha.. I just love the shape of the specs.. I think rectangular looking frame suits me better… (:
I’m having my grandma’s b;’day celebration this tue.. 1st Jan 08’.. I just cant wait to wear my black peep-toe heels! Haha.. (: anyway the admission for Escape Theme Park has been $7 for quite some time.. so do get there soon! (:
And allow me to reiterate this point: we’re happier being apart.
now for the more sober issues of my life.. well, as for my holiday assignments, eh i've completed them 2 weeks ago and even did some corrections last week. lols. but ots only for certain subjects.. but otehr than that, my self-revision schedule has gone berserk, making me feel more hopeless and helpless than ever.. sigh..
and as for GP, i regret to say that i havent been putting uch effort in it this hols, making me feel pretty shameful of myself.. the only positive information that i can give is that i am obsessed with teh dictionary this holidays. that means to say that my knowledge of words has somewhat, imrpoved. but i am still feeling disheartened of my vocabulary at the moment, while i'm typing out this blog post, as i dot seem to be using words of a "higher-value"? bleahz.
well as for the prospect of returning back to college for my year 2, i am not entirely keen in it.
but well, since this is the path that i've chosen for myself, let me give myself some dignity by honouring my decisions.
Savour Every Moment
