Hey guys !
Created this space years and years ago thus do forgive
me if it comes off as extremely cheesy. And the incredibly
tacky name. Haha, I get chills everytime I lay eyes on it.
Too lazy to change things though !
I love to write, so have kept myself updating over the years.
I hope you guys enjoy reading me ! ♥

Not that I'm Cantonese or anything but, yeah haha.
It's the eve of CNY, no idea why it feels so slack, maybe it's because it's so early this year and most of us haven't exactly gotten it in our heads that reunion dinner will be tonight??? Thanks CNY.
Anyhow, I made it back to Dad's pretty early this year, and over here there's really pretty much nothing for me to do but lie back, eat, watch tv, use the com, eat, sleep.
Haha ! Actually it kinda sounds like what I'll do back at home but minus the WORKLOAD can.
Hoho.
Oh ! On a sidenote, I just got myself a new book and boy, am I glad I did.
Everytime I step into a book store with every intention to get a new novel, I'll take super long at the aisles deliberating over which one I should get. And I scrutinize all the reviews on the cover super carefully. By the way, I'm a sucker for real short reviews like "Extraordinary", or "who who who is the best writer of our time".
And you know how so many romantic novels has reviews like,"If you loved Time Traveller's wife, you'll love this more", or "Every bit as good as Time Traveller's wife", I just want to roll my eyes. No way !
Time Traveller's wife was the ultimate best bestest bestest love story I've ever come across ! But still, I did bite and buy those books.
So anyway, after all that careful deliberation, I more often than not end up leaving the store empty handed. Cause I'm so afraid of getting disappointed by a bad book, and of course, I'm feeling too stingy to blow $17 on a paperback. So lame right, enter a bookstore, choose choose choose then after put everything down cause I'm feeling too stingy. Haha ! Plus I tell myself I'll get to save my failing eyesight.
Either ways, I got The Help and it's turning out to be super good ! Cannot resist after Blair referenced it on Gossip Girl, plus I've picked it up so many times before putting it down again.
Not that Gossip Girl has any credibility at all but anything Dan and Blair mentions, I'd feel like reading.
After that looong and boring drone on my book picking process, pictures !
Haven't blogged in such a long time, but I'm free now so here goes !
Christmas feels so long ago, but I had a pretty nice time so still gotta post it up.
Headed to Jon's party after a flea- it was really tiring but fun to meet some of you girls !
The rain was coming down on us all night, but the bbq continued and that explains everyone's wet bums.
Also, it was the best bbq food I've ever had hands down ! Which explains the lack of pictures of the food, it was too good.

Am so sad how pictures on Fanny's camera turned out so much nicer than mine ! Why am I not better at picking cameras. ):
Some years ago in Bali. Deja vu. Haha.
It had to be toweled everywhere cause it was just too wet !
But it's always awesome at Poker though. (:
Oh btw, I read the CNY issue of 8 days and it says I have no chance at winning this year so I shouldn't even try??? It even repeated no chance like twice. :O Wish I never read it. )<
All you horses out there, looks like we're on the same boat ! Haha !

And that's all folks !
Gong xi gong xi and if you're a horse and win at the tables this year, do let me know okay. Then I'll brush that silly 8 days comment aside and try my luck on the ban LUCK table this year.
Hahahahahhaa, okay shall stop sounding like such a rotten gambler.
新年快乐 !

Nights alone are so far and few these days, have forgotten how to put myself to sleep. Lol !
It's 3am, and once again I'm left with nothing else to do but still I'm not going to bed. Hehe. Thus, sudden inspiration to blog.
Christmas is so close ! I didn't even realize it. Thought there was at least another week to go or something, but it's just the end of this week !! Tuesday, today's Tuesday right. No. Wednesday already.
And I did not prepare anything to wear for the season. ),:
Oh well. Shall think of something. Mad dash. It's the worst thing to HAVE to buy something new because of an occasion. You can never find anything.
I asked the boy today why is it people talk about the X'mas shopping so much, and if Singaporeans really give out X'mas presents. He said it's probably parents getting gifts for their kids.
I've been seeing people commenting about rushing their X'mas shopping, and was feeling really left out and Chinese. Haha ! Why Chinese ah?
Beats me, but to not be able to get into the festivities by shopping for gifts just feels so... asian?
Why this mentality, when I do have pending gifts to get. Aha ! See ! I'm actually quite angmoh also. Got Christmas shopping to do.
Which brings me to remember, he asked me too if I would like to go back to church this X'mas, totally took me aback. Bit heartwarming too but more guilty than anything.
We are super backsliders. And to think I'm always asking God for stuff every night. Aeeeiii.
Oh well.
Still, it's one of the sweetest times of the year, what with the tra lalalalas going on everywhere. ((:
Merry Christmas one and all. (:

So, theother day was Siying's 21st.
Her sister had been planning this surprise party for her, and her reaction was the funniest.
When the door opened and we all yelled SURPRISE !, she looked like she would have liked to crawl into a hole or something. You can probably tell from the expression below. Haha !
Hehe, Happy birthday Miss Tan !
Oh, and the theme was bunnies, this girl loves her bunnies, but I'm not gonna elaborate on that or else she'd probably kill me.
Who has red eggs these days???! That lucky girl.
Abit regretful that I didn't have one that day, have never had one before !!
And her mom was such a sweetheart, she prepared so much yummy food !!
If my mom could cook braised pork belly like that, I'd be gaining weight in no time.
An embarrassing 21st birthday video dedicated to her. Eh Siying ! Must appreciate okay ! We all cracked our heads over it !
We celebrated her birthday in two parts.
Headed to RWS a few days after for a sleepover.
Had dinner at Hard Rock Cafe and the food was so much better than I remembered it.
Short of Elaine and Ziqi but 9 years ! Man ! We've probably spent more than 40 birthdays together combined.
The ears are all turned down cause before that we wanted to use them to cover our eyes but FAIL.
Aren't the photos pretty?? Hehehehehe.
Once again, we hope you had a memorable one, and many many many more birthdays to come !
Lol, ka ching.
Tooodleeyyooo darlings !
Fridays fridays ! I love Fridays !!

I eat breathe worry about the online store on a daily basis nowadays. And of course countless other trivial matters like whether if the bubble tea I'm going to buy later's gonna give me a sore throat or diabetes- but that's besides the point.
Sometimes when it's doing really well, I abhor the hectic-ness and totally dread the workload and never seem to be contented with the money.
When it's not doing so well, I fret and fret over what I'm doing wrong.
I guess it doesn't help that I handle stress terribly and am probably the most disorganized person you will ever come across, but I dare say I perform the best at last minutes.
Have constantly been toying with the idea of getting a model recently, ruts always takes meaning out of things for me no matter how much I loved it in the first place.
Would love to have the girl everybody's been seeing on blogshops lately T, she's so pretty and has such an ang moh vibe can !
Plus these other girls would fit into the clothes so much better and I would save myself the agony of having to scrutinize and nitpick at the photos every week.
But sadly, I'm damn stingy when it comes to money belonging to the business (unlike myself, who I dare say is generous to a fault, hahahahahahhaaha okay, or not), and who am I kidding, I love being in front of the camera !!
Haha, that is. Until I step in front of it.
Shooting's not the most easy thing in the world, especially when you have to lug the stuff around every single week, and when sales depends on it.
It's so hard to separate ourselves from problems at times- or maybe that's just for me. Hate being excessively paranoid, feels like I'm mental on some days.
I guess being forgetful and so easily distracted's a good factor to have to follow paranoia cause I never have to worry too long about any certain thing. Lol. 1 hour max. Haha !
Oh ya ! Which brings me to theother day at the airport returning from Penang- I ended up drinking somebody's else's bottled water (I have no idea how that happened, HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN SO CARELESS?????). I fear such things the most, it's kind of crazy but my mind will like end up going into these frenzies and concoct the craziest ideas.
My Dad even had the cheek to joke that he saw that it was an Indian man who sat on the table before us so the water probably belonged to him.
Okay, I just realized that that must sound totally racist but that's NOT THE POINT !! Or maybe it is. No no no. Lol. I would have been as paranoid had he mentioned any other race, or. Okay. Just take it from a humorous standpoint okay. My Dad was trying to be funny. You know how Indian jokes are always funnier.
Lol. Now that. Doesn't sound racist at all.
Anyway, the point is !! I worried about drinking that water for like an entire hour from before entering the gates to boarding the plane, what the !!
Will keep reminding myself of the line the boy brought up to me some time ago, I swear it really helps.
Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do but doesn't bring you anywhere.
Since I'm a pretty logical and sensible person la dee da (or as I'd like to think), a line like this halts my thoughts from falling into an endless abyss of needless worrying- that is, if I am sane enough at that moment to even recall it.
And I just remembered something so, digressing- when I was really young, someone, probably my mom told me God says you can't swear, so I never did and never asked people to swear.
Like you know, go, you sure?? You swear !! Swear first !
Come to think of it, I must have gotten it wrong right? The swear here probably meant like in vulgarities.
Hmmmmm, gotta remember to check with someone about that.

My favourite blusher fell theother day and smashed into a thousand powdery pieces.
I didn't even know they were able to do that.
Got it from the Shiseido maquillage range some time ago in HK, looked online and they don't seem to have the refill anymore !! );
Depression.

It seems like I haven't matured at all in the last few years cause I'm still so
EXCITED about catching Breaking Dawn when it premieres !
Oh man. I mean, a century old virgin vampire who glitters in the sunlight and a girl who'll drop her entire life and family in a heartbeat for a flawless teen boy.
What is wrong with me?! It's all that powdery foundation on Edward I tell you.
THURSDAY ! THURSDAY !

Have been at my Dad's these couple of days and I took a truckload of photos of... of course, myself.
Lol !
Am posting alot up, can't let perfectly good photos go to waste right ! Requires battery to take one leh. Energy is a resource, so I'm posting more. Hahaha.
Ahem, I never realized sunlight came in through the toilet, perfect lighting for hiding my sandpaper skin. Ha !
Hang in there okay, while you witness my immense narcissism.
Oh ya !!! And there's a reason why I took so many.
Someone did the make up for me, and it was the first time I had fake lashes on ! I think. Ya, it's the first time.
Such an odd sensation- anyways I think I look better without them, pretty enough with my original ones. AHAHAHAHAHHAA.
Lol, I was so excited to start taking photos that I didn't even turn on the fan.
Was sweating like a pig by the time I reached 1230120480291 photos.
Lol, it was funny when people told me congratulations that day.
Brother who zipped in and out in 2 seconds. He had to leave halfway for live firing the next morning.
Hmmmm... why do they call it live firing anyway. Sounds like an execution.
Saw this on a neighbour's car and thought it was super cool ! Lol. Those people are so nice.
Am totally gonna tag all my cuzs. Eh, don't always laugh at my surname okay.
The boys in our family all seem to start out with super curly hair. Damn cute ! Haha.
My pretty cousins all grown up.
I had mixed feelings visiting but it was quite an experience.
I always felt like you never really get to know your parent's real personalities or who they really are as a person- only the surface where we see them from as a kid to how we are now.
Ran around completing last minute touches with my Dad during this time and am really happy I got to spend this time with him.
Got to talk to him, listen to his many perspectives, and everytime I talk to him, I realize that there's so much I don't know and every once in awhile, he surprises me with the things he says.
Sometimes I wonder how can we be so close to our parents yet know so little, and they us.
Am so glad for the both of them for they're both wonderful, generous people.
Plus she's so pretty la ! Haha. So put together she puts me to shame.
Ahhhhhh, last minute trip to Penang in a few days before I head back to Singapore and celebrate Si Ying's birthday.
Kind of excited for that too. Not excited about getting her presents though. Ahem. Haha !
Just kidding laaa Miss Tan !
Will post up photos from Penang in a few ! First time there can you believe it.
I kept refusing to go cause I thought it would be a ten hour road trip. Plus, I'm so behind on the online store's work ! Wanted to launch a new one soon. Hai.
Turns out it's only an hour's flight. Heng ah.
Nighty everybody !

It's the study period these two weeks, but besides the one or two mental breakdowns along the way, I'm feeling pretty mellow honestly.
Am going chapter by chapter at my own pace, and if I don't finish the textbooks, heck. I don't finish.
Like I've often said, thought I'd be rid of studying by now. Not learning- studying.
Pretty good mindset eh? I'm just cruising this semester ! Haha !
Reckon I'll get out of this Friday with all the hair on my head intact.
Troubled by other stuff though.
Am expecting a very hectic November, lots to do !
In the meantime, it's more writing, more textbooks, more punch in the gut anxiety.
Life's good. (: See you soon people !
