I'm losing my limbs!
I have been to the docs and they have no idea what bit me too. There is swelling, red rashes and worse of all...BOILS!!!! Describing it here is enuff to make me feel nauseous! I can't even walk properly now. I can only manage a limp. Every step I take seem to agitate the infected wound. PAINFULL!!! I suspect I'm having gangrene from this infection too! I'm getting all paranoid. I changed my sheets and disinfected my whole room yesterday, for fear that the mysterious killer bug is lurking somewhere in the corner. I slept without my blanket and bolster the night before, cos i felt that it was "bug-infested"!!!! I spent the last hour bursting the blisters. No one wanted to help me cos it is simply nauseating looking at the infection! Cal's goosebumps were all popped up when I was talking to her on the phone abt it. Are urs up too?? What a thing to happen so close to the end of the year. How am I gonna enjoy myself on NYE?? How am I going to face my schmates when sch starts on Monday?!? Sigh...I'm gonna be scarred for life!!!!!!!!!!! Just kill me now!!!!
I have been bitten by a mysterious bug and my left thigh is rotting away!!! I do not want to disgust my (loyal) readers with a pic of it...cos its way too gross!!!
Watched Kung Fu Hustle this evening.
Highly recommended for the himbos and bimbos. Nothing is believable. I was at the church's lunch function and every lady (esp. those above 40!) were raving about Sam's looks. Saying he looks like a Hong Kong movie star! (!!?!?!) No one in particular but just the look that screams STAR. Some even went to the extreme and suggested that he join the next Star Search! Maybe its just that they have not seen him in a looong while. The BROTHERS' hiatus has made them somewhat muddleheaded perhaps. After that, we headed down to my relative's party at their new place. Tanamera Crest. Quite nicely done up. Except the units are painfully small!! A nice way to describe it: Cosy. So we were at this party chomping down the food at the function room area and the scene replays itself. The 30+ ladies were going on about how much Sam resembles a HK movie star. This time they named names. There were shrieks that he looks like Gallen Lo and there were also some who claims he bears an (uncanny?) resemblance to Louis Ku. And it's not an independent point of view from one misguided aunt...there were resounding agreements from several other aunties too! I have no idea who Gallen is at that point in time (cos' I'm not a sucker for HK drama serials!), so I went online to look for a pic of him. Check out the comparison below. STILL!! I DUN SEE THE RESEMBLANCE! hahaaha...i'm not being mean...or modest even...I'm just FRANK! I still lurve u all the same dear, even if u look like william hung!:) We sipped on wine, ate cakes, and exchanged gifts. I got Cal's gift. A golden eyeshadow for speacial occasions. Its close to brown..SO I LURVE IT!! Chloe got my pair of dangles.Hope she likes it too. YEEEEKSSS!!!! I HAVE A HUGE BUG FLYING INTO MY ROOM!!!!I hate it when I open the windows. When I was in hall, I had problems wif these bugs too. I can understand it den cos my hostel room was so damn close to the open field. But here!!?!?! They have no reason to be here!!!! ARGH!!!! DAMMIT!!! I HATE BUGS!!!!! School is starting in a a week's time. SIGHHHHH.. And my FYP!!!! ITS STAGNANT!!!! I'm so dead. There goes my hope of graduating with ANY honours watsoeva. The only consolation. I have a job nevertheless. Mtg Sophie tmw...FINALLY...
Oh well..yah, as I was blogging about my busy Christmas Day.
The three families bought units in the same block.
I Only had time for a quick bath to freshen myself up for the last party of the night at Caline's place.
How is it that they look alike? I don't get it...
Been pretty busy lately finishing up my jigsaw that was given to me as a gift by Lester on my bdae.
I only got my butt to starting on it this hols. As of last night, I have placed the finishing piece to the puzzle and ITS COMPLETED!!! Its a pic of the The Last Supper. Made famous to the masses by Dan Brown in his crappy Da Vinci Code. Holy Trinity Church Christmas Lunch Went wif Sam's entire family. The food was slow in being served. The 9 course meal took about 3 hours. Maybe that's why I was actually full even tho the portions were not much. It was the usual churchy event. Dances by the youth. Skits by the children. Songs by the choir and of course Prayers. But the "highlight" of the noon was how so many of the church members raved about Sam's supposed good looks. Not that I'm being demeaning to him, but really...the comments were simply too exaggerated!! I gotta run now. Will tell update more tmw!!
Attended 3 parties on Christmas Day. Farnie how I have none on the EVE but 3 on THE DAY itself?
Yuletide Joy
Not that I'm complaining Its good...to just stay at home on a BIG eve..rather than squeeze with the crowds In the comfort of my room With just the music playin softly in the backgrd and the candles burning away. Its bliss... Staring up at the ceiling, I feel at ease, calm, and peaceful Why am I not in church for the Christmas Eve service? I dun quite like the tot of squeezing with the merry post-countdown party crowd after the service ends @ 1230am. Will probably head for the Christmas Service in the morning tmw... Isn't it queer that I did not contact a single one of them to check out on their plans this Christmas Eve? I find it weird too...but I just didn't feel like it. The common perception is that couples spend Christmas Eve together, doing romantic stuff..coming up with crazy escapades blah blah blah. So it is not uncommon that many singles hate pple who are hitched on such occasions. My single frens tell me all about it. To the point that when they were planning for their Christmas Eve outings, they conveniently excluded me! Without asking if I would like to join them. Its just taken for granted that I would be spending it with Sam. Sheesh... I won't say its their fault. Its the society and its norms. Maybe they should exclude me if I'm the super sticky type of gf that MUST spend every living moment (wat more on the EVE of Christmas!!) with my bf. But...HEY!I'm not!!Its not like I'm engaged or married!!! But in a cynical way...I'm thankful I spent my Christmas Eve alone. Call it sour, bitter..wateva. Up to you to conceive. But I kindda enjoy it. No calls to head out to clubs, or mindless countdown parties. In fact, no calls even to cfm the impending party tmw. I think its confirmed. Its cancelled. Wow...we have reached a new level altogether...where our telepathy skills have enabled us to communicate in a manner that there is a mutual understanding amongst us. Without calls, or sms...I can sense that the party is cancelled... But could it be that the miscommunication is deliberate?
Its gotta be one of my most decent and quiet Christmas Eve ever.
Wonder what my friends are up to this Christmas Eve...
I MADE MY OWN LOGCAKE!
Hope Sam's parents like it... Ver suggested calling it off. Out of exasperation? Who can blame her? Its difficult to get everyone together. Perhaps its better this way. It would be awkward this christmas. Have you ever thought about how derogatory it is to betray your best friend? You are (I'm?)worse than scum if you do that. I know it. It would be a quiet Christmas this year. Family and no friends.Or even better still... Just with myself. Hitting the gym tmw. Alone My usual gym partner...she won't be making it with me. I wouldn't want to ask her anyway. It would be unbearable for her I guess.
I'm not gonna divulge the Secret Recipe of mine!! Haha..not like you guys dun already know right. Its simple. Just swiss rolls.
But still. Its hard work! The magic is in the coating. I failed once. I added to much milk in my choc. So it became too watery and it slides down the side whenever I tried spreading it.
Thankfully, my bro's gf who is very adept at baking came to my rescue! THANKS JANET!!
Turns out most of the gals couldn't make it for the Christmas party.
Not only betray...how about cheating?
My creation. My daddy claims it looks like the Polar Express rather than a log. Darn!
Results out
Thankfully I cleared all. If not my job would be at stake.
How ironical it would be isn't? Getting 3 offers initially and now blowing them away just 'cos I failed a subject.
I wonder how much more of such shocks can my faint heart take.
I have just one more semester.
But my timetable next sem, albeit being my first choice, is not good. Its a 5 day week!!! WHY?!!? WHY MUST MY LAST SEMESTER BE LIKE THIS!?!
Can't the school just let us off with a better one???
tsk tsk....
AND MY FYP!!!My tutor is holidaying and we are totally stagnant!!!!!!
We are so dead!! We have been procrastinating the whole holiday!!! ARGH!!!
Its difficult to get a shoppaholic (Caline), workaholic(gal-joel) and procratinator (me!) to work together!
Did highlights. My last chance. Once I start working, I won't be able to do such outrageous colours anymore. KPMG has a code of conduct, which forbids its staff to dye colours that are not "professional" looking.
My beloved dad is absorbing the cost!!!! ahahaha...its times like these that I lurve him! Other days.....hmmm...
Welcome Back Sandie!!
The last time was this Thai bf, this time round...its a Burmese dude! Hahaha...the first question I asked is not whats his age, name, etc...but its what's his Nationality! True enough, she didn't disappoint us!! I'm not jealous of their "killer figures" or their dancing flair. They just do not give me the good vibes. But perhaps cos' I'm not one of those lewd old men peering up their skirts from beneath. So all 5 of us were watching the "performance", with arms crossed and legs fixated to the ground. Perhaps we were too engrossed with their slutty moves. Not forgetting the repulsive guys who took to the "stage" to get their hands on the bitches and to make a fool out of themself. Tsk tsk... Ok... so back to our non-committal, nonchalant stance at the prime area ( the bar). We were so not in the mood to dance along that we got "chided" by some asshole. He claims we are spoiling the mood and are taking up precious bar-space!!! Can u believe it!? Madness!!! People like these ought to be shot and banned from that place! Not like he is dancing very well along with them nor is he so drop-dead-gorgeous such that he is a babe magnet! Pls!!! He is like short, and even in the dark, he looks revolting!! Imagine if the lights were on!!!! Short guys should just simply remain in their league and not even attempt to venture out (UP??) of their range!!! Watched Ocean's 12. I dunno if its just me or is it that the story is really complicated, but I took me quite awhile (tru' post-screening discussion with Sam) before I finally got what some of the parts meant! Somehow the guys get it faster. Sort of like the Matrix. Me and some of my gfs still do not get what the Oracle, The Architect, or what is the deal about the strange place that Neo and the rest of the gang lives (and why everyone in tt land dresses in rags!) So, the conclusion: Girls, be forewarned. Read up on Ocean's 11 before viewing Ocean's 12. But the show's cast is truely beautiful. I fell in love all over again with Brat, Matt and George (notice how I call them so intimately! hahahaa)!! Guys would lurve the sexy Catherine, who looks so damn hot in her trench coats!! I must digress now. Going for my first kick-boxing class tmw! Hope we (Caline is joining me) can finally make it this time round. Its time for the
That lass is still as skinny as ever!! Unlike many who have grown sideways whenever they head Down Under...she is still like a stick figurine!
And she has friends from all over the world! (Sounds like the Carlsberg ad isn't?)
It was a great time catching up with my former netball teammates. Had dinner at Sakae and headed to Devil's (Sandie hasn't seen such acts before in Singapore, so we accompanied her dere) to catch the bitches struting their stuff on the bar top.
Check out the huge kiwi below! Its my first man!
Sandie is the one in green. Check out Chevaun's (extreme right) hair do!
Satisfied...
The humongous Kiwi sorbet. Wonder if its mutated...
FINALLY!!!A NEW SKIN!!!
Its saddening to see a relationship that has been for so long ...end...that way. Makes me wonder...is it foolish to even start dating so early for marriage? And I'm not getting married until at least I'm 28! That would be another 7 years. Which means I would have dated Sam for 9+ yrs before I marry him!! 10 years!!! How tiring would that be? And who knows? We might realise that "we're not able to work it out" after the 8th year. And thus end the relationship. That would have been a total waste of youth, time and energy... Its always incidents like this that makes me morbid...and re-think what I'm doing at this moment. Will be walking forward with ya...to the new era..to the "Road Less Travelled"! (OOP..but remember this stupid book!!!?!)
THANKS LYNN!!
She is a true blue IT gal!!
There needs to be some fine-tuning...so do bear with me for the time-being.
Anyway, today is a momentous day for a good friend of mine. Shall keep her in anonymity.
But..hey gal, you SHOULD move on soon yah! Stop walking down that old path again. You know where it would lead you to.
Btw, girls who are game for the night-out tmw..give me a call ya!!
A trip to the beach turned out to be a shopping spree!!!
Chloe and me have been planning for this weekend out to the beach since monday! She even got her jeep and we were all so set for the sunny Sentosa...and its all ruined cos of the rain!!!
We drove all the way to Harbour Front to pick Sam up...and while waiting in the car...the rain started to get heavier and heavier and heavier....
We got so depressed sitting in the car...with the wiper panning across the wind-screen...
Btw, they are having a big sale!!!30%!! Quick go grab your favourite monogram prints!!
And GUESS is having their sale too!! My baby bought me a sexy, rugged, to-die-for mini!!!! Lurve it!! Gonna be wearing it on Wed with yet another fun-filled girl's night out!!!
So the beach outing is post-poned to next sunday kay! Take note of this if any of the jean-gang happen to be reading this!!
Ver: Tell "irene" to come along too! For a get-to-know-"her"-better session a.k.a the grilling panel interview!
Ok, gotta go back to doing some designing! I'm feeling arty-farty today. Hope my design gets accepted...and soon you will see it whilst eating your favourite sushi on the conveyor belt!
The sad view from within...
pretending to be happy...but we are crying inside!
WILD WILD NIGHT
Its fun...and naughty!! :P There were some nominees performing...some rock band whom we have no idea who they were!! Wif cheesy stupid names like Armchair!!!! Hahaha...but the lead is this cute Thai guy! I think we might have gone so obviously gaga when we rubbed shoulders with him later on! Anyway, we were sipping our Heineken and watching the performance. Its so much like a scene taken out of OC!! Where Summer, Marissa and Anna were at this concert in one of the episodes! Ok...OOP i know... There was free flow of Heineken tt night. We stocked up almost a crate of it and played our drinking games and the ultimate THERE OR DARE! Its a modification of the Truth or Dare game...just minus the Truth option. The dares were super raunchy!!! hahaa..i can't say it here..or I'll get killed!!! Sam's bro, Joel was there too. HAHHHA....we felt quite bad. Cos we kindda like ruined his night. He had to "look" after us...for most of the night... Anyway, he was a gentleman..unlike some guys!!!! Perhaps I should hook this highly eligible bachelor with my single girls. Caline interested?!!?? :P mhauhahahahaha Oh, met Evelyn there too. Haven seen her in the longest time!!! Think the last time was at a Nav Camp!!! It was great catching up...for the short 10 mins? I can't say much about what happened. Its just a scandal-ridden night! Here the lyrics of a song ...courtesy of Caline Maybe it’s better this way,
I was at the MTV ASIA MUSIC AWARDS PREVIEW party @ Zouk last night with Caline, ANgie and Joel.
Anyway, we had so much beer last night that we had to make a couple of rounds to the toilet and puke!!! YUCKS!!! I think i'll be laying of the fermented yeast for a long time to come!
Sitting alone, wondering where the time has gone,We promised forever, that we’d be together,But our love has since past on...And how could you sit thereAnd tell me that I was unfair? Why cant you try to put your pride asideAnd for once show me you care...Baby I sit here counting the timesYou’ve done me wrong,All the times you lied, and brushed me aside.The list goes on and on...Even when I’m trying to work things out,You still blame me,When I pay the price, of mistakes done twice,Baby now I see...Hoping it’ll get better,Will just cause more heartache,I guess we’ll go out seperate waysIt’s better this wayHoping it’ll get better,Will just cause me more pain,Sometimes two hearts just don’t love the same...What do I do, to erase all your doubts? When I try to talk and communicate,In return you shut me out...So why should I bother putting my heart through all this pain? Girl we can’t go on, because you’ve done me wrong,Let’s go our seperate ways...Maybe it’s better this way,Hoping it’ll get better,Will just cause more heartache,I guess we’ll go out seperate waysIt’s better this wayHoping it’ll get better,Will just cause me more pain,Sometimes two hearts just don’t love the same...
I HAVE A BIG BUM ON MY HEAD!
And unknowingly,I knocked into the METAL, SHARP EDGE of the hand dryer!!!!!!!!!ITS DAMMMMMMMNNNNNN PAINFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone present in the toilet were shocked and looked up from the sink or turned their heads from preening at the mirror towards the loud bang. The impact was great as I was walking hastily to empty my bladder and rushing to get changed. I almost fell backwards from the "collision". SERIOUS!! No joke!!!! Now the bump is 3 dimensional. Soon it would be blue and black, with purple poka-dots! How am I gonna face the world!?!
Today is my last day of work as an underpaid gift wrapper at Border's!!! Yippie!!! No more paper cuts and sore finger tips. No more getting shit from ugly Singaporeans!!
I happily made my post-work plans this evening after knocking off and was SMSing on my way to the ladies.
Girls' Night Out
But anyway, there is a redeeming factor. Their chilli is nice!!! I'm a chilli person. I'll die without it man!! Probably explains why my metabolism is low...AND WHY I'M SO FAT!!! We headed down to China Black after the dinner. The place is as Ailin would say:" Wah...ChinaBlack is really BLACK ah!" Anyway, the place is quite sucky. Ugly crowd. Except for the cute guy we scouted for Joey to be kissed by! He is probably the cutest guy dere that night!!! The music is uncomfortably loud. Can't even hear one another when we shout. Have to communcate by typing in our phone. Madness. They want to show off their sound system or wat?! It sucks btw. So flat. No base in fact. Sound so whiny! LIKE ME! We had to line the bottom of the PAPER bag with lots of tissue. We really can't afford to dirty Ailin's Merc!! Yeah..that ends the adventure of the girl's night out. I got home, removed all my make up and collapsed on the bed. I realised that the locals are a bunch of stingy, overly-particular, unreasonable people!! The gift wrapping is free for goodness sake!!!! And its for charity!!!! Give me the impatient look and expect me to wrap fanciful designs!?!?! Pay me $5 la...I'll wrap slightly nicer for you if i feel like it. On the contrary, the foreigners are the more humane ones. At least they are nice and they greet you. And they bother to help with small details ( unlike the locals who simply cross their arms and tap their feet!!) like holding down the wrapper while I fasten it with a tape. Simply exasperating. It makes me sad to think that I'm part of the ugly side. The ungracious society that I live in...
Celebrated Joey's bdae. Ate the overrated Ding Tai Fung @ Paragon. Seriously, I think Crystal Jade's Xiao Long pao beats the 18-folds (its not really true actually. I counted. Some had 16, while others had 17. Only a few really made it 18. I'm nt surprised maybe there is 19 folds. But wats the pt..really?!?! Does it make the pao tastier?!) xiao long pao at DTF hands down!
The highlight of the night. Getting Joey pissed drunk with a flaming lambo!!!Hahaha...we are mean. We had to "cruise" at a speed of 40 km/h driving back cos any faster, SHE WILL PUKE!!! And all we had is a PAPER (not plastic) bag for her to puke it. Her cereal looking (with the Ding Tai Fung paos!) vomit is naseating!! Even the sober ones like me feel like puking with a whiff of her puke!!
Gift Wrapper
Woke up at 9 am this morning. Went to wrap present outside Borders for World Vision. My fingers are numb from all the wrapping.
The 18-folds Xiao Long Pao
The birthday girl on the left side (outermost) of the table. She's flying off to US for internship at Silicon Valley! For a year...Lucky bitch!!!
The only reason why I would ever go back to DTF.
