Folksy epic of a girl.: April 2007

 



I study in a course that kills yet the name sounds the least like it. I dread regrets in life, thats why I always strive to do the best in things I do.
Looking too much into things is my weakest point. Misplacing things and forgetting names are my strengths.
I think I have self-discipline since I do not smoke, drink or into clubbing. A fan of chocolates, that explains the frequent failure of my diet plan. I've made a secret pact to kidnap kids home because I just cant resist them.
Lastly, I want to declare that my blog is mostly of entertainment. Sorry to disappoint, but I hardly put my emotional thoughts here. :)

First day of school!
Have been using my time usefully with Jayne for some sports and stuffs recently. :D
And its really great to have a good accompany with u on the same common interest.

Swimming, shopping, EATING, gyming, paranoiding bla bla.
That means i'll be seeing this awesome bread almost everyday! ahha.

That means she'll be seeing me more than she see her dear.
And i'll be seeing her more dan melvin. =P
Another thing is she knows melvin's sceldue more than i do. haha.

Yep, and i loves sports.
Felt quite good after a swim todae at Yck pool thou it was rather tiring and felt a lil sickly.
Aimed to swim 20 laps, but swam 17 laps instead and it was already near to 8pm.

When i was young, i always got sick and having fever once i finish a swim at the pool.
And despite that i still loves the pool and continue to swim.
Its better now, i wun get sick.. But mostly felt kinda giddy and stuffs.

I'm not sure whether can i still stick to this lifestyle once my hectic school starts, because its only the 1st week and the slackest week of all.
Roar.
The thought of the series of activites that is coming up excites me, and i have the total freedom to put which ever days i like. :D

Went for a badminton with those peeps like bev, qy, joseph, shane and warren.
Met at toa payoh stadium but all the courts were fully booked.
And i suggested khatib stadium, and bingo they were so on!


And.. all the courts were empty..

Thats Joseph and shane the hot fk.


I still cant imagine those people who lives so far far away, like seng kang tampines etc will come to the north side.
When they stepped down here, they werent a little familiar at all of this place..
And shane wanted to go my house to see FiFi, but due to my time constraints there is no fate of FiFi to see such a hot fk. =X

oh yep.. help FiFi to bathe recently and I realise she is quite skinny!

Before drenched..

After..

Its all the fur that makes her looks round, but when she was drenched, its just like some bones and meats. duh..

I find this damn funny, when her body is drenched leaving her head that is dry, looking so big.
Like some horrible monster. :D

I tried playing with her fur and comb it in a way that cover her eyes. lalalal.

And this is the result. ;)

*********
First day of school at TAS.

Thanks to those people who sms /msn etc that remember it is my 1st day of school for yr 2 and wishes me thou some arent that close to me or in diff sch. :D
Sometimes, those little things makes u smile.

Its a change of class, and its time to adapt again.
And yes, its yr 2 now!

Met Joel and benard up in the morning at vivo to go school tgt.
i've made some new friends in other former classes. (:
Somehow, i gt some used to it that I dun mind making new friends over again with some unfamiliar faces..

Journey now.

Home--> Admiralty MRT---> dhobby gaut MRT--> Harbour Front MRT---> Vivo city---> Imbiah station---> TAS!

That take me prob abt 1h30mins.


On the way .. we saw this mascot again.

And it dropped one of its wondrous beautiful tail on the floor.
So it became Joel's toy for the whole day in school. =X


Break for 1hour, and have not seen the canteen yet.
Went to koufu, and it sure sweats like crazy while walking there.
Glad that student there can have a 20% discount.
Do not ever wear heels, long sleeves or u will regrets..

Thats old benard climbing the hills before reaching there.

And oh yes.. TAS washrooms need passwords before u can go in.

which is.. so funny.

So.. u need to key the password before this glass door is opened for you to visit this 'grand' washroom.
And thats HANDSOME weichen on the cover. =X


Lastly, I'm still happy despites some struggles to make some decisions.

Nice song.(:

katharine Mcphee- Better off Alone.

was listening to 98.7 and came upon this song.

Nice lyrics there.

One thing I'm wonderin'
When you run out of friends
Will you be coming back home?

Let's think this through again
Let's take a different spin
Why can't I leave you alone?

Somewhere tonight, you may be found
With some other girl you've been draggin' around
You lie to yourself, and you lie to me
It seems like the truth is your worst enemy

Cause baby I'm tired, tired of the fight
I'm tired of the lonely days and the dark endless nights
It's taken some time, cause I didn't know
If I could ever let you go
You helped me figure it out
I'm better off alone
I'm better off alone

I may be found, somewhere tonight
Cursing the day you walked into my life
What's done is done, I can't change time
But I'll be damned if I'm not gonna try
Oh I'm gonna try

Baby I'm tired, tired of the fight
I'm tired of the lonely days and the dark endless nights
It's taken some time, cause I didn't know
If I could ever let you go
You helped me figure it out
I'm better off alone

But every now and then, my heart gives in
To the hope that someday you'll change
Then alone I'll wake, to my own mistakes
That it's just a foolish game

I'm tired, tired of the fight
I'm tired of the lonely lonely lonely days and the dark endless nights
You didn't think, cause you didn't know
That I'd find the strength to let, let you go
I finally figured it out
I'm better off alone
I'm better off alone

One thing before I go
Something I've got to know
Boy, did you ever love me?

*****

Time to reset my priorities.
Time to gain back what i've lost and lose whats not impt in hand.
I can do it, I know i can. (:

Wild Wild Wet
Time for me to have an enriched life.
I have so much that i want to accomplish!
I guess I've wasted so much of my time away, w/o accomplishing anything at all.
I've really learned to look things at another perspective. (:

Went wild wild wet with Jayne and PJ on Sat.
Fun fun fun!

All blames to the sunlight that chop some of our heads off.

Threesome!
Jayne and me.

Damn rotten luck.
We were so excited about playing with all the rides, 1st thing we wanted was the Samsung U shape ride.
And were queuing patiently for it, took the super heavy float and climb the stairs up when it was our turn.
when we saw the last step. We were so high that it finally is our turn!

But goodness, when we went up.
The person said: " sorry, there is thunder. We got to stop the ride now."

Our FIRST ride, and FIRST time to wild wild wet. And just up to the moment we saw their faces, we cant play!

sigh! our hearts kinda sank and went to the shelter, waited for the rain to stop and immediately ran to the queue. we lose to a couple there running to get the 1st. And we were the 2nd!

It was super scary.. in fact the most heart raising ride in the whole place. I felt like jumping off a building.

And this.. Family rides.

This sounds silly, was kinda reluctant to play at 1st.. But Jayne wanted so I joined her. (;
Kinda thrilling, cause theres a feeling that the 'thing' may drop anytime.

And many others.. kinda lazy to describe. Anywaes the advertisement sounds fun but it aint that fun in reality. Gets bored after a short while. But at least my company were great, so everything was great. xP

Played from around 3pm to 6pm. And went bathing. Oh mine. 1st time i saw a clean bath room at any swimming pool!
Jurong swimming complex sucks big time, their loo is cruddy like mad.


Clean and Speck! After bathing..

Pj and me. (:(:
Playing with Jayne's shades.

Supper lately, but cant help it. Cause Auntie is extremely gd to treat me and Jayne.
The Auntie is TinkerBells's boss's mother.
So does it makes her a dowager?

Nono.. she's extremely humble.. like any other auntie working in tinkerbelle. 7 days a week!
And she really can joke and makes her laugh.. thou she isnt young any more.

Working that day at cineleisure, and auntie treated us there for supper.


So savory and mouth watering!

thou its like hawker.. Its near 43 bucks in total.

We loves Auntie. right jayne? =P

I'm deprived of sports, i loves sports.
Back in sec school, always get so excited during PE time.
Netball etc..

If time permits, I'm gonna take a sports Cca in school thou its hard travelling from sentosa to Tp just to attend it.
Ahhhh..

Heres FIFI bidding good bye! damn adorable right?

Eski Bar + New pet FIFI
5th April- Sushi Making Time

So now I realised why one sushi often cost 60 cents or more.
Because it really requires a lot of effort for each and every one of them, all the way to the wrapping up of it.
Oh wells, perhaps to me.

Told PJ i wanted to make them for mel and she said she wanna join me too to make for Rick. haha.
And.. went w her to cold storage @ cwp to buy all the ingredients.

From this much.

To this much..From the seaweed to the rice and the sushi roll, to the toppings and to the packaging of the plastic foam.

And I realised Japanese stuffs are really very expensive.
Because.. this much cost us a 50 bucks in total. =X

So went to PJ house and started doing it.

1. Cook the glutinous sushi Rice.

Oh well, I'm ashamed to say I really have not much idea how to cook rice.
Like how much water to put so that it turns out not to be like a porridge or burnt up due to the lack of water.

And this 2.5kg of rice costs a 15 bucks which we took quite a while to find it.


So Pj tried it and estimated the water. And we were so paranoid to spoil the rice that we kept opening up the rice cooker to check on it!

2. Next, prepare all the ingredients. eg. boil the eggs, cut the crabsticks and cook the unagi etc..



3. Mix this Japanese wine to the rice slowly, keep adding and trying until the taste is just right.

Just felt as u add more it became more sour instead of a tinge of sweetness.

So.. we added sugar mix with water to it. =X
Aniwaes it turns out to be well..

4. Start making balls of sushi Rice

Oh man, this is the most difficult of all esp when u have nv tried this before.
I felt like having a stroke while doing it.

The rice kept on sticking to my hand as I tried to roll it into a ball or either it falls apart and the ball turns out to be freaking ugly.

After some tries and tests, this is the result!


For some deco purpose and also with some taste as well, u can add this sakura powder.

5. Top the ingredients on the sushi rice and I had a hard time doing it while doing Kani nigri because it kept dropping off. And gungan sushi u have to make sure u cut the right size of the seaweed( big enough to put have space putting ur toppings & small enuff to maintain the appearance).


And I used Japanese mayo with the eggs in the mixing. ( thats the taller one)
But it turns out to be not much of a difference when the price between them is really much of a diff.

This is the most summed up of the procedures! (;
And time really passed very fast, we tooking a freaking like 5 hours to do everything.
Yet I couldnt finish with the packaging thou we've bought the plastic for wrapping it up. ):

Because I've gt to meet up with him and his parents to Eski Bar @ clark Quay.

It is perhaps took the name Eskimo and the place really lives up to the name.
Super duper cold there.


I'm such a dumb pig to order lemon drop SHOOTER, when I have forgot that I've learnt in FB fun that its a super strong alcoholic drink.

When i saw the word lemon, it immediately catches my attention b4 the shooter reminds me of what it is.

And thats it.. A very small cup with even a thin slice of the lemon is almost covering it up.
I tried one sip and I really cannot take it, and her mom is really so sweet to exchange her tequilla sunrise with me.

Lick, sip.. Suck. Thats drinking tequilla and I havent forgotten one bit of this.
But still.. I dint practise it, but drank like any other ordinary drink. =X

And us.. And yes this freaking HOT pink jacket is not mine but provided by the bar because it was very cold there.

With a corner that is ZERO degrees Celsius.
Can u imagine urself being trapped in a freezer?


*********
And here comes the most alluring part.
My dwarf angora rabbit is back home!!
and the 150 bucks that is being paid for her is really worth the money.

Wanted to give her name heres what I have tot of.

- Fluffy( she really had a lot of fur)
-Furby( she looks like one)
-Cotton( She super looks like one with a lot of fur thats white)

Thats Angora species, with a lot of fur thats makes it looks like a dog/cat more than a rabbit.

In the end.. I dint choose any of those but names her FIFI.
Reason is because, Rabbits are dumb I have to admit.

And i wanted to train her till she can respond to her name and i realise either one of them sounds so difficult to recognize.

But FIFI sounds so easy!
Yet sounds a lil like fluffy and furby.



Profile: FIFI
Age: 2.5 mths old
Sex: Female

Btw.. she isnt photogenic so if u think she looks cute in the pic, she looks even more adorable in real!

1) She runs around and is very bubbly. (;

2) She loves the accompany of humans, loving u to stroke it gently and carrying it..
And one thing I LOVEEEE is she is so tamed thou she is very sporty and bubbly at the same time.

know what? She can lie on my arms comfortably and sleep like nobody's business like a baby.

I'm really shocked to see a rabbit in this way because normally they will jump out and bite u if u want to carry like an upside down turtle pose.

I wrapped her up in a cloth and she is sleeping on my arms like the pose of carrying a baby.



And she too.. can lie and sleep on my lap.

Aww... she really dint have a slight fear of humans. still too innocent.

She loves food like carrots, apple and kiwi. She will do anything to grab them.
From chasing after u, to standing up to get it.

So far those who visited her couldnt resist her. My hse is open for visitation of her. =P

Some cam whoring sessions with her!



********
Have been sneezing the whole day today, which I tot my nose could drop off anytime.
Fifi was paranoid each time i sneeze, she would run by the horrible noise ( to her).
So u can imagine the no. of times she ran away.

Ysd was work.. But this time working with Jayne.
Colleagues were great too this time! Had much time laughing tgt. (;

But met a lot of wierd things that day.
Started off with having a female customer asking for my number which I served her.

So I asked her: " Are u a christian?"
She: " No.. why?"
Me: " oh.. because I tot u want to reach out to people.."
She: " I'm a buddhist.. couldnt be asking u to my temple rite? smiles."

And it surprised me because seldom females are so friendly to make friends with females..

Next during Jayne and my journey back home in the train. Saw a malay woman fainting on the train while standing just a few distance away from us.

What shocks us is that she woke up after a while when the kind singaporeans guys carried her up, and she makes those noises that really scares us.
Those thats groans and moans.. gosh..

She was being carried out of the train the next stop.
And we were still quite stunned then until after some while we cooled down and begin to talk and laugh like usual.

There was a ah pek sitting a few sits away from us but in the same row of sit who keeps looking at us angrily and talking to himself.
I was saying smth and Jayne laugh so madly and this ah pek begin to look at us again and mutter some vulgarities at us.

We were so quite afraid then and went out of train the next stop and rush to the other cabins before the door closes.

So glad that she came to my house from her work just to see FIFI.
So nice of her u bread!








Still trying to define happiness.

Life
Dear readers,
dont give up reading yet thou I'm updating lesser.
Havent really have the mood to blog.
I promise I'll be back with more soon.


The art of living is more like wrestling than dancing.

Obstacles,
Critics,
Fear,
Failure.

Its called life.

Some people put you down,
Sometimes you put yourself down.
You want a change.

Love,
Belongingness
Self actualization.

Its also called life.

Both are the same yet so different.

Seeking yourself is the toughest of all as you try to discover an answer.
Often, the more we seek the more we couldnt find an answer as we indulge in pessimistic tots.
And.. they are indeed powerful.

The whole world is really an enigma..
This harmless enigma is
made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.


In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life:

It goes on.


Fight it all and fight it through.

Smile like u mean it.
Yes.. smile like you mean it.
I have been finding reasons for me to smile recently.

Trying to look things at another perspective, giving more than taking.

And I came to realize that smiles are contagious.

Doesnt that make your worries gone?

Have been working consecutively for nearly a week for a 10hours job everyday.
So called a sales girl at Tinkerbelle selling shoes.
And it has been this kind of routine:

1) waking up early in the morning
2) Take train & off to work
3) Go work and see 1 or 2 colleague there
4) Stand for 10hours
5) Reached home at 11 plus pm
6) Wake up next day for work.

Seriously.. I envy those full timers.

I cant imagine if my whole life is to work the same kind of routine everyday, standing 10 hours per day doing the same thing, going to the store room to find the shoe model no. again and again and again.
It is like trapped in a Paid jail, I'll rather bang the wall..

Thankfully its a part time job, and I swear the next few weeks I wont put that hectic.

And..
I want to say a BIG BIG THANKS to these people for yet making my bday a special one again!

Qing Yun, Joseph, Jayne, Terry, PeiJing Rick.

And of course the special one who is the mastermind of everything..

Melvin <3

Lastly keep that smile going on!


A random entry! More to come up. (:(:
