But.

Would you rather, therefore, have had nothing at all?

19th.

11:01 PM

18 came, and 18 passed.

19^thhas been well, and I had the nicest time welcoming it with the girls.

As always.

How else would it be, if not that way?

More than a week has passed, but, I guess you never know when you might want to take a trip down memory lane. Hence, the short update. For future references. (:

Being us, we never failed to cam around with our spare time.

Adored the way the photos turned out (thanks ziqi for bring your cute little tripod along).

Only two from probably a dozen shots.

It's difficult to be disciplined enough to upload stuff when Facebook's lying around, oh-so-conveniently.

Oh ! And Weiting only got to join us at dinnertime, which is a shame cause she would have looked beautiful in these photos.

Headed to PS at Dempsey for dinner at my suggestion.

These girls are always so obliging on this day. Ready to agree to almost anything I suggest.

(((:

Groupshot for keepsake's sake.

A wish for health, bliss, peace for all who's loved.

And a little something more.

Missing Ziqi here cause she was running around being busy for us.

All in all, it was memorable because of the people, and not the day.

Realized that I've lost count of the number of birthdays we've had together- but that, I suppose, is a blessing in every way.

On a more serious note.

Gosh. It's finally one of those rare days where I actually feel like writing something and am not working- and actually having the time.

You know, feelings usually make my stomach somewhat uncomfortable, and I don't usually write about it, but hey !

Like I said, it's one of those rare days.

As another birthday quickly approaches (this time feeling a little too sombre and swallowing, so much so that I'm actually a little afraid of it), I realize that it is no longer as cheerful or lighthearted as before.

Where another additional year used to mean liberty, and friends, and and- opportunities, it is simply now another push into this crazy unknown future.

Because, because, every day we let pass so thoughtlessly, is another day into dreaded adulthood.

Because, as I look at our slightly older acquaintances, and what they are making of their lives, I identify this feeling that grips my spine, as cold fear.

Because the decisions made now, does not seem any more mature or sensible than those at 15.

Because every time someone comments at my youth, realization hits at this particular age, that I know it's not here to stay.

Because as a child, you think of all the things you'll become, and how your life is going to play out.

And it is at this age, you realize with a start that your life is already playing out, and that you are living it everyday.

And you realize with another start- that's slightly more dampening,

that you are neither as upright nor as beautiful.

that you are neither as brilliant nor as cool, as the you as a child thought you would be.

Dampening.

The pride I feel which comes with my parents success, makes me realize that in very near future, it has to be theother way around.

And when that time comes, I fear that I may have nothing to show.

For every day I let past so very carelessly, their hair grey ever slightly more.

And on some days where their exhaustion shows, it wrenches, and I have to swallow.

And what worries me most, is that I do want to continue being careless, and free, and to go on taking things for granted- like they're meant to be.

I ignore problems, feign nonchalance.

Hoping they'll mend themselves. Or simply go away.

Someone should come say to me, you're doing everything wrong.

Because I still live thinking that I'm young. And we can salvage it later.

From lousy exam results, to even lousier decisions.

Salvation is now but an excuse we no longer have time to indulge in.

Because in the day, we laugh, and we laugh, like all's right in the world.

And at the end of everything, when finally alone, we frown and we ponder.

But that's it.

All we do is ponder.

Because we never talk about it do we.

Not of sickness or of false friendships.

Not of being close today and strangers another.

Nor of futures that skate on such thin ice.

Or of religions that casts vast shadows of doubt.

And to believe in something so doubtful, so wholeheartedly.

It has to be because, we're all only human.

Because change frightens, and is unfamiliar.

Because Time is such a thoughtless entity.

It takes so much away, and leaves so little to be desired.

Ahem ! Well, so sombre, I'm embarrassed by it. Who cares right?? Don't mind me.

It's perhaps just an attempt to try good literacy. And failing miserably.

Eh wait. My english so good ! How can I possibly fail. HAHAHA.

Ah. Lol.

I want change, but have no idea how to make it. Or where to start.

Or maybe it's because I still have zero idea of what exactly it is I want.

Haha ! And it's only 19 now. I don't even want to know how I'll be at 20.

I'll probably suffer mid-life crisis at 22, and be suicidal at 30.

Ha!

Oh oh oh oh OHHHHH !

On a lighter note, I cannot, cannot, CANNOT.

Wait for FUNNY PEOPLE. Hello???

The movie? With Adam Sandler?

It looks so insanely good, and yes, the funniest actors are in it.

Stellar stellar comedy cast.

Well, until next time. Enjoy your holidays poly people. While it lasts.

And for those not in poly or NOT having your holidays, well.

It's just too bad. Cause life's unfair. Ha !

Okay.

So I know I havn't been updating for some time.

So I know that it's getting late and I should be taking a shower instead of choosing to update at this moment.

But !

It's an important time really.

My heart literally flew near my mouth and fell back again into place (all in 1/5th of a second) when I saw this okay!

Ahem.

New Moon is coming to us babbbbyyyy!!!

(okay la.)

(so i've never liked reading any of the twilight series outside if i can help it.)

(so i've always been afraid of being perceived as one of those silly girly twilight/ robert fan.)

(so i've always remark that the twilight series isn't written very well.)

(so i've always felt that the twilight series never really had much substance.)

But still !!!

I have always (and probably will always be) been a humongous, gi-normous, IMMENSE,silly, girly, Edward Cullen fan.

Hey ! He is the most chivalrous character since- since- since- gosh. I can't even think of any.

Who still bothers to whiz over to open your car door for you at this day and age anymore???

And a body carved of stone doesn't hurt either right? ((((:

Anyways. This poster is soooo perfect !!!

Pardon me, I know I'm gushing.

But that is what it is !!!

Okay, just shoot me now.

Spare my dronings but I'm going into Twilight stuff full force now.

I'm sorry for those who don't agree but I think that Taylor/ or Jacob looks so wonderful here !!!

(i usually don't like adding exclamation marks into my writings.)

(it makes me feel less serious.)

(but gosh, i really can't help it this time round.)

I've always had a soft spot for Jacob and even ! Had a moment in the third book where I wished that Bella would just go with Jacob for awhile, just for awhile.

He was just so cute !

Arrrggghh !

I'm so excited because the New Moon is really my favourite of the four cause it was just so sad.

With Edward leaving Bella and everything.

Quite pissed off at him for doing that.

You should never ever ever have left her- no matter how much better you think it would be for her !

So unfair.

Hm. Okay okay okay. I know how it's just a story and all but still !

Back to the poster alright.

(: I wonder how Edward manages to look so beautiful in the poster.

They must really have lovingly slapped buckets of foundation and powder on Robert leh.

He looks simply ethereal.

Jacob also not bad la.

It's an almost- ALMOST (but not yet) even fight.

Hehehee.

I'm sure that I'll be having a good night now.

Make sure you do too. ((:

Until the 20th of November then. ((((:

香港香港。

So !

I suppose it has been more than a month since I returned from HK-

and I am now blogging about it diligently like a good hardworking girl. Aha.

(must blog about it la- if not go holiday take so much photos for what??)

I'll try to remember as much of it as possible.

(digressing, the blockbuster of a serial, red thread, is playing on ch5, and i really cannot help NOT rolling my eyes every 3 seconds at their forced americana accents.)

(i know. oh, save me, i'm getting so judgmental.)

So again ! Let's start form the very beginning shall we?? (:

It was early in the morning when we arrived at the airport for our trip and some of us had a group photo before leaving for departure.

Kua kua kua.

Kai Ling and I were really blur la.

I was like scanning my passport in the departure all the while lugging at my luggage.

The we both walked around for abit before realizing that something was amiss.

Almost nobody else was lugging luggage ! Oh happy day. We had forgotten to check in our luggage and had to take a detour to check them in before heading for breakfast.

Smart right.

Still ! I'm sure the crew thought our bimbo-ness to be quite endearing. Heheee.

And lo and behold !

We are in the air.

Delighted when I found out that Twilight was playing.

(i feel like i can watch it everyday la !)

(i know, my shallow girly fanatic side never seems to fail to disappoint me.)

Ah... nothing like a scoop of dashing Edward to make my trip.

Though- I'm sure Wenhao looks much better than him. La deee da !

Ahem ahem !

And tadah ! In less than a half a dozen hours later, we are all comfortably seated on the coach.

I know- holidays always feels like they are on fast forward. So fast right?!

Edmund Lim's trying to balance and take the photo if I remember correctly.

I couldn't help it.

So HK.

Our humble abode for the next 4 days.

A hotel's a hotel la.

At least it was clean and tidy.

Stanley Street, situated somewhere in HongKong.

A photo with out lecturer, Mr Lim.

Oh, and the weather was actually okay. Not that cold la in my opinion. Quite comfortable really.

First day, and we're brought to a beach for photos.

This is actually pretty high up on a hill leh.

So it was pretty windy here.

The hill/ or mountain, goes up and up and I heard my lecturer commenting on how dangerous it must be to live there.

The houses and buildings dots around the hill/ or mountain, and I think hor,

it's almost dreamlike to live there la.

The houses are pretty- not too lavish or anything, but the be situated so high on a hill, and to be able to look right DOWN to see a beach and the city- not to mention the light ocean winds blowing into your windows, gosh.

I don't know leh. I suppose it must feel like living on a little piece of heaven, literally.

Taking photo with the waters that some fortunate others look down at from their windows everyday.

This photo like very artsy huh? Hehee.

It was 23 degrees but i think it felt colder than Singapore will ever be.

A pretty building that's vacant according the the tour guide.

After about 1 hour of circling the hill/ or mountain, we wander around taking photos before heading to the tram to return the the bottom.

(it was a little too foggy for photos that night.)

Tram approaching.

What the tram looks like.

(digressing again, i kept having the feeling like "tram" sounds like a female goat. no idea why.)

And in about 8-10 minutes of sliding- yes- sliding down the hill/ or mountain, the tram arrived at the bottom of the hill/ or mountain. Quite nerve wrecking really.

I was like- we could have taken the tram up there??

Kuku.

So, at night time, we almost run into the first restaurant I see. I don't think I had a proper meal the entire day lo ! Just a few bites on the plane.

The menu costs 500HKD.

Hehee.

Looks quite terrible right.

So hungry, we didn't even remember to take photos.

Just walloped into the food first.

HongKong's 茶餐厅 are so different from Singapore's one la. Theirs are more untidy.

After dinner, we shopped around for abit after dinner.

Quite something right. Hehe.

Look at how tiny the people are.

First breakfast the next day.

And the next destination was finally-

Hong Kong Disneyland !

Quite kiasa la. My first time to Disneyland.

Hm... in honest opinion. It was okay ok la.

Perhaps the time we were given to be there was too long.

Photos,

photos,

and,

more,

photos.

Main Street, USA.

In my opinion, the Disney princess with the prettiest gown.

Princess Aurora and Prince philip.

This prince was really quite charming.

Tarzan's treehouse.

Must really give it to Disney la.

They are really pretty lavish in their makings.

Eh... the Mad hatter's building?

High School Musical performance.

Heng no one tried to impersonate the one and only Troy Bolton. Heheheee.

Cute kids.

Hm. I still think the Stitch ride was really cute.

The 3-D? 4-D? ride?

This was the more magical part for me.

E hee. Trying to act cute la.

Them again.

Even their food court/ or cafeteria (you can never be too sure of places overseas), was so lavish la !

I think the prettiest princess there was her la.

I was quite afraid of the rest. Abit scary leh.

They made a building just for one ride.

You see what I mean by lavish??

I took like 70+ photos inside that ride itself leh !

Imagine at least 50 other frames of little people like that in one simple ride la.

The magical Carousel which I did not even bother going on.

Seriously, where has the princessy kid in me gone !

Main Street, USA, at night.

The famous nighttime fireworks display.

Another one of the more magical moments.

Of course I wasn't even able to capture 1/8th of it's splendor la.

Outside.

Lady's Street.

I love the restaurant la !

So HongKong Hong Kong. Hehee. Small, cramped and filled with Canton chatter. (:

Again, I was reaally hungry, and this was my most satisfying meal in HongKong by far.

I wanted duck rice, but according to my profound understanding of the shop keeper's sign and expression language, it was sold out.

So I had goose/ or geese rice instead and had further hard time in conveying my preference for non-chicken breast meat.

MacDonald's in HongKong.

Other country's Mac mayonnaise like nicer than ours leh.

Hmm...

In a cab !

At first, I thought the meter wouldn't jump cause we took one from Lady's Street all the way back to Metro Park hotel without it jumping at all.

Waiting for the night light show.

At Starbucks.

Before the show.

A little after where these both supposedly claimed to see Daniel Wu outside Marco Polo hotel.

Tsk. Harumph.

Shopping, shopping and more shopping. Shop until no time to take photo of the marketplace leh.

My first time eating a corndog.

So nice la !! Next time must bring Wenhao to try.

A HongKong boy behind me. Hai. Daniel Wu, why did I miss seeing you???

Outside the dessert shop. Forgot to take photos of the dessert leh...

And then.

Ocean Park.

Pandas !

Dolphin!

Cable car !

Like very high right ??

Dared Skye and Kai Ling to shake the car but they lousy la !

If they not scared I sure try to shake one. Tskkkk.

Hehe. The rides that I took.

Not bad right?

Zoom zoom.

Phiiiii- eeeeeewwwww !

Skye dirtying his panda.

And the Mine Train that I did not take.

Siao ! So near the ocean.

I havn't forgotten Final Destination okay.

And soon enough, it was time to return to Singapore.

A final meal in HongKong at the airport.

Finally some HK Dim Sum !

Sparked off my love for Ha Gau.

Eh... haha.

The Xiao Long Bao I think Singapore's Crystal Jade's nicer.

This was as good as it looks.

Some photos before leaving. With Fanessa and Amber.

Ah, and the final photo.

Alrightey !

I'm finally done.

It's still the first week of school now and may everyone be well and happy this merry month.

Hopefully, I'll update more often.

That's all. Tooodddless all.
