Welcome to ChinaBlack
Just came from clubbing.. Not been feeling well on Sat (yest).. someone must have poisoned the food I ate at Neptune Restaurant on Fri nite.. Not been unable to wake up after 8hrs of sleep.. it was a fitful one.. I din sleep well yet I dun have the energy to get up.. really bad feel.. finally picked myself up before 1pm, yet felt lethargic the whole day.. maybe flu maybe something else.. finding every chance I can to seep back into bed for a quick wink.. Did nothing useful today, perhaps only tidied up my book shelves abit.. bro's celebrating his lunar bday today so we went out for dinner at punggol plaza.. a simple fare yet had the chance to play with my little nephew ^_^ Mum bot him a toy bicycle after tat.. this little boy only 2.5yrs wants to learn riding a bicycle.. how advance can kids get these days.. well, as a first timer, he did a fine job :)went home, showered and get ready to my first time at chinablack.. reached pacific plaza at 11.30pm and met up the rest, chris, cobin, kp, jeff and chris' fren (cant rem his name) The place was swarming with the young crowd.. alot of youngsters as compared to Dbl O. kp's fren ck joined us alittle later.. we din manage to get into the stage this time round.. had a few drinks yet din have the mood for drinks today.. i knew i would get into trouble if i drink too much as i knew my body cant take it today.. just a very sicky feel in my stomach, the throwing up feel, i think i am going to kena stomach flu soon, so better stay away from alcohol.. the few drinks din kill me but they kill kp.. he had too much he can take, puke near the bar counter.. he has his frens to take care of him.. so we went out for a breather while chris and cobin had a game of pool.. went LPS for supper/breakfast before heading home..Evaluation.. dun really like chinablack as much as dblO.. the place is simply too crowded though they have better dancers than dblO.. yet the purpose is not to see good dancers but to dance happily myself.. the drinks are real EX.. the music did not stir my mood, i wonder why.. i hate the DJ's interruption into the music shouting tequila shots, 1 for $5.. senseless move.. interrupts the dancers' moods.. it is too smoky in CB.. seems like all the youngsters are smoking in this era.. I din really have a good time this occasion.. perhaps the mood is not there and feeling abit sicky.. the only consolation i got from CB is one of the waiters i spotted looks like JK.. except he is younger, shorter and less handsome.. yet the "feel" resembles JK.. when i first got to know JK, he was very fair, slim, neat black hair and wear specs.. totally innocent feel.. i kept on bioing this little guy and reminiscing my JK.. i wonder why i think of him so much lately.. just like the way i think of AL.. hoping JK would reappear again.. and just now, i even tot he's JK, yet i can spot the difference alittle later.. Evaluation on CB: 5.5/10
A Better FRidaY!
Finally feel tat i've done something better today!! YAY!! cant sleep last nite and i remembered going to the loo at 4am, twisting and tossing on bed non stop.. the weather's keeping me awake and the late wake-up doesnt allow me to have an early rest.. so eventually, i woke up at 9am, after shutting the beeping alarm clock at 815am.. went to hougang for delivery.. so it had been a short guy who has been ordering stuff from me on behalf of his colleagues.. amended one of the goods right on the spot and it took up abt 10 mins.. cross opp to hougang plaza for breakfast.. craving for pancakes but they had finished selling them for the day.. so i had a kopi and chee cheong fun.. went searching for the 72 bustop and walked some yuan wang lu.. so the bustop is just at the interchange WALAU o_o Took 72 all the way to YCK and it took only abt 20mins.. walked all the way to SSDC to book my BTT.. finally a kick start to driving.. if i never make this initiative then the idea of driving will be shelved for dunno how long.. however, the next earliest date is only at end of april.. ALAMAK!! so try to make it pass at the first attempt so FTT and provisional driving can take place asap!! took train to Bishan to catch a movie.. 2nd time to bishan within the same week.. collected the ticket at 12.05pm for the movie "Closer" which happens 10mins later.. its an M18 movie starring julia roberts - my all time fav actress, natalie portman and 2 english guys whom i dunno they si xiang... the show is abt adult relationships, cheating, deception took place, people marry, divorce, split and came back together.. alot of sexual languages and adult theme stuff.. good exposure for me, to get to know more abt the adult world.. in my opinion, the movie merely reflects the realism and cruelty of life.. people acting upon their feelings result in deception, the truth hurts, yet people yearns to know.. Based on storyline, i rate it 8/10, well, sequencing of the movie is not so good, confusing at times.. so rating falls to 6/10.. actors performance THUMBS UP.. both the female casts did GREAT JOB :) the leading male is the most lousy i feel though also considered BUAY PAI.. his name is DAN in the movie while the one acting Robert's husband deserves a THUMBS UP too.. therefore, actors' performance got a 9/10.. Natalie Portman has a really pretty face, very young and sweet looking, but she is very short and really BAK BAK.. Julia Roberts is as usual, a beauty in her unique ways.. large mouth, really large but really sexy.. looks way matured past her pretty woman days.. i really like the way she bundle up her hair in the movie, looks like a super career woman though she is a professional photographer in the show.. but she looks FAT.. is she pregnant while filming..??Back home and began preparation for kp's d&d.. feeling alittle tired after the lack of snOOze and the travelling + the afternoon heat, yet still had to go.. i wore the black off shoulder top i bot for cny and my one and only white skirt.. put on my self-made brooch and earrings, din want to over-accessorize so they're the only things i wore besides the watch.. met up kp at 7pm at serangoon mrt.. his colleagues drove us to clifford pier and it is really an eye opening event, to see so many policeman/woman under one roof.. alot of patrol cars and even those dark blue vans with thinly separated grills u see on tv arresting those thai/chinese prostitutes are parked everywhere within the vicinity of the restaurant.. neptune restaurant, managed by meritus mandarin.. the circular ballroom sits abt 800 guests with a very wide stage.. personally feel tat the ballroom is well organised in such a way tat no matter where u sit, u can see the stage.. there is a large screen too!! the emcee is humurous, he's a bayi who declared himself an indian, yet can speak mandarin and hokkien.. there's this boring russian dance and the same group of people even performed a series of TOPLESS dance which the under 18 guests are invited out of the ballroom.. TOPLESS means the ladies really exposed their breasts.. though they still wear skirts and deco on their bodies, yet the bra-like thingy they wear on their chests cuts at the lining of their breasts, meaning, their breasts are uncovered... u can really say that these russian dancers have really good figures.. they are slim, not very very slim those kind but the bone structure is really nice.. their legs are bloody slim as they are dancers.. but u dun see an inch of muscle or even fats on their bodies.. then their breasts are the perfect shape!! rounded and u can really see they have 2 perfect pieces of meat on their chests unlike those "airports" who seem to have millimeters of fats squeezed to the chest from somewhere.. sadly, i feel i am one of them.. think the russian gals would look perfect in bikinis and they dun even need padding or push ups.. walau.. unfair man!!!!!!!!!! HUH!!!!!!!! then again, not sure if real or fake as i sit too far away liao.. kekekez maybe 80% real bah.. ang mo lei!!!!!Tired, took a ride home in kp's colleague's car.. kp tagged along.. nice of him to see me to my corridor.. his colleagues are nice people too.. but i seemed "taken" as i am his partner, so his colleagues dun really talk to me.. the performance is really long, they have a boring magic show which the magician's clip-on mic is so muffled tat u cant hear a thingy which spoilt the whole program.. another series of dance followed after tat, then concluded by the last round of lucky draw.. PIANG!! only ended at 12.30am.. so damn tiring!!!!!! oh yea, the food so so lor.. Ratings!!Food - 5/10 - shark's fin :(Performance - 3/10 for dance; 2/10 for magic show; 7.5/10 for game shows by emceeKP's colleagues - 7.5/10 for quite nice people; 0/10 for not talking to me :( somemore no handsome guys CHEY!!Overall evaluation for the evening : 6/10Felt tat today is a better day as i did something more worthwhile than rotting at home.. at least i booked my BTT, watched a movie and attended a dinner..!! so evaluation for the day: 7.5/10 ~ an improvement ^_^

WAH LAU, WAH LIU, WAH PIANG!!! Rating: 6/10 for tea, 0/10 for pearl, 8.5/10 for value-for-money, overall 3.5/10went to walk walk pasar malam after tat.. bot a pair of shades to replace my lost shades at dbl O!!!! finally got something i like after losing the prior.. after searching high and low in shopping malls, tried on those at guess, esprit, optical shops etc etc.. and i actually found it in a pasar malam!!! somemore its 10 bucks nia ^_^ !!!! its not considered similar to the lost one but i like it lor kekez.. maybe its chemistry bah :) wee saw me to the bus stop and i took the forever-cramped 27 home.. luckily got a seat nearest to the front door :)Home, do this do tat, heard zoe tay give birth to a baby boy boy liao :) must be cute since the couple so good looking kekekeZzz.. congrats Zoe!! next time i bring tonic to your hse ah!! will be going with Fann and Christopher..

Wed 23 Feb: A Short yet Long Day
The alarm clock beeped at 10am sharp.. Lazy Sam just slam it aside and continue SnooZe till 11.45am.. left 15 mins counting down to noon.. HaiZzz.. presumably, another lazy day.. Breakfast was a thin slice of bai tang kao + my daily dose of cafe21.. left for chinatown by 1pm.. the weather was darn HOT!! i wore my new mng top in orange :) the material is THIN and GREAT for a HOT day ^_^ as usual, got my supplies in tat cramped store in PPC, went to another store at basement.. but then, one material could not be obtained from either store.. no choice had to visit another in bugis :( Neverthless, an excuse to shop there :)Silly Sam forgot to check out the available bus services to bugis and went to take a train instead.. kAoZzz.. decided to walk from dohby ghaut to bugis but then when i step out of the train station, the sum was beaming brightly and the weather is rated DARNx10 HOT~!! Plan B - Bus service 7.. waited long in the stuffy bus shelter and the temperature within tat small place was increasing every second.. There I was, reached Bugis~!! Decided to get lunch.. was considering BK, crystal jade or Foodcourt.. I chose FC eventually, due to CHEAPNESS and wanting to try something NEW: Kimchi noodles..!! Definitely not worth to pay $4.50 for a bowl of majiam-maggie mee dipped in spicy+little-bit-sour soup topped with little bits of cabbage and preserved vege.. EX sia.. no meat lei :( but then, it was nice to have a steaming bowl of soup noodles when i am craving for something soupy.. and great to try new stuff..!! Rating: 7/10 for taste and 4/10 for value-for-money..wanting to get bro something for his bday tomolo.. checked out Topshop and other stores, yet could not find anything that suits him.. 27-yr-old liao and turning into an uncle.. cannot expect him to wear prints like those offered in topshop and f-men.. mostly importantly, the price doesnt fit my budget kekekeZ.. so walked over to bugis st checking out for available bargains.. did not get anything as well.. the place was chaos with the renovation going on during operating hours.. the place was again, cramped and stuffy.. thankfully, the canvas shelter did a great job by shielding the sun away from tat place.. visited the 2nd floor and only a few stores were opened.. NO LUCK.. last resort: OG.. checked out BUM - NOTHING, checked out OP - NOTHING, finally saw something ok from Maui & sons ^_^ 2 pieces for $29 kekekeZ.. the budget fits and the quality of material was considered GOOD~!! So i bot one nice navy blue t-shirt for kor and i selfishly bot a white halter neck kekekekeZ... hmm.. kena rejected at the cashier.. she told me kor's top was not under promotional items and it costs $26 instead... shit.. tat salesgirl at maui told me its under promotion.. kena cheated!!! HUH!!! bloodly annoyed, i walked back to the counter and changed the nice one to another navy blue t-shirt.. well of coz, the design not as nice la =_= but still okie for the quality :)getting late, so rushed to little india for the train back home.. today we are having the reunion dinner at home for the last day of cny.. 15 days, finally came to an end.. time flies.. we had a great dinner, totally filled to the rim.. watched the 9pm show on tv, then continued working on my $60 orders.. finally finished and packed up my stuff by 1am.. started to work on other things till now.. BLOGGING..Today (23 Feb) is HIS bday.. 28-yr-old bday.. exactly one month later from mine.. i sms him "happy birthday" in the afternoon and he replied "Thanks".. not disappointed or whatsoever as i had expected he would reply this way.. how much better do i have to know him..?? kekekeZ.. admitted tat i havent been contacting him since the 2nd day of cny.. i will cut down thinking of him continuously.. its time to get on with my life and start on new things.. my CreActionZ is on priority while i had to get a job too.. doing the basic theory is also another milstone.. Jia You bah SamSam :)
Yesterday and Today
Woke up early yesterday morning and followed sis to her ccc.. took a free ride of course.. it was chaos in the morning, with the chef-aunty on MC and the place was swarming with KIDS!! so sis picked up the ladle and became the chef of the day, cooking for about 100 persons, 3 meals a day.. nevertheless, I temped as the kitchen assistant, washing cups, plates, pots and pans.. the main purpose is to deliver goods, yet the teachers are super busy with teaching and taking care of the kids.. HELLO!! we meet again!! Some of the kids can still remember my name ^_^ spoken and teased them and they REALLY CUTE!! so I went for breakfast alone.. 2 kosong pratas and hot coffee in a nearby coffeeshop.. went back to ccc to help again.. then went for window shopping in J8 alone.. Back to ccc at 12+ when the teachers are freer.. delivered the good, and altered some of the jewellery.. only managed to collect back 23 bucks.. the rest of them either did not have enough money or was on leave.. so i have another 130 bucks to collect.. had lunch at the ccc but couldnt finish my mee hoon kway as had a tummy upset earlier and released all the toxic into J8 restroom.. went back to J8 for a 2nd round of window shopping, this time, with the company of sis and ms cao.. did not buy anything.. decided to wait for sis knockoff at 7pm so i can have a free ride again, i took the train to orchard in order to pass the time.. only 5 stops to orchard from bishan.. bumped into elena at forever21 ^_^ such a coincidence.. perhaps this is called fate.. we said our goodbyes shortly as she had to visit montblac taka then rush home.. so, i shopped alone in wisma and taka.. grabbed an orange top from mango for 25 bucks.. visited Fox and tried on something yet decided not to buy as the material was really not worth the price.. visited a few other stores, such as zara, and m)phosis was on SALE!! Time flies when you are happily shopping :) i travelled back to bishan at 630pm, grabbed some subway niche kways at J8 and met up sis at ccc.. accompanied her to get her contact lenses and enjoyed a free ride home.. had dinner at home, watch tv, do this do that and slept at ard 3am.. Rating: 7.5/10Woke up at noon this AFTERNOON.. did nothing much today, just chat online, work on the jewellery thingy, came up with 2 new designs today.. then accompanied mum to punggol plaza.. she opened a new FD account with ocbc, shopped in ntuc and other stores, and had an early dinner - chicken rice set - not bad la.. HOME, watched tv, do this do that and now blogging.. wanting to send out some resumes but feeling lazy, so will bring it over till tomolo.. Rating: 5/10 DEAD BORED - NOTHING BETTER TO DO =_=
Time to Blog again!!

SORRY!!! Have to fly her plane to go k-boxing at 11am.. cant really remember what i said to her as i was really in a daze and drowsy from lack of sleep.. think i slept at ard 4/5am every morning.. the heat is making me toss and turn on bed.. hard to fall into a slumber... wah piang!! was rushing orders last nite too :)so wat did i do yest..?? wake up ard noon and met up orange for jalan jalan at far east and orchard ard.. we took 111 to tanglin mall and checked out the bazaar crowd.. so we have decided to ballot for a stall in april and she has got approval from her somebody on this~!! YAY~!! we walked back to orchard after this, she bot a black top from project shop.. it is really nice la, but i find the price abit too steep kekez.. she had to leave earlier so i shopped alone as meeting ivan at 8+ for dinner and movie.. got a top from mng and changed into that.. as i wore a spag top and rather revealing to ivan's eyes.. i have been avoiding the q why i wanted to change the top.. in fact, i dun wanna show too much flesh to ivan.. he has tat kinda supersonic eyes tat seem to able to see thru ur clothes.. i dun feel comfortable.. i knew he had designs on me since 11 yrs ago and never stop till now, so better not show so much flesh kekez.. then i also got another brown surf bay top at a bargain!! 6 bucks nia!! not a very nice color so i can wear it till the day i decided to let it go in the bazaar sale..so he arrived at taka at 8 promptly.. followed me shop shop awhile then realised we were abit late to meet his frens for dinner at PS cafe cartel.. so we hurriedly took a walk amongst the crowd while the chingay procession was still on.. we caught glimpses of the performance and felt the excitement to be immersed with the crowd.. passed by the open-air makan place opp centrepoint too.. tat was the place HE and i wanted to go, but it nvr realised.. we were slightly late.. had dinner with his frens at cartel and the order took damn long to arrive.. i had a chicken salad and a soda.. i pinched on ivan's fries and shared his soup.. tasted a small slice of the chicken sausage he ordered too..I DO I DO started at 10.45pm+ after the ads.. it was.. ya, hokkien-ish, like orange described.. i dun find anything great abt the movie.. just a simple plot.. its the conversations, and songs tat made it funny ba.. and i find it quite lame, to deceive someone's feelings (not gg to say more to those who havent watched it kekeZzz) nevertheless, watch out for PING PONG PIANG, WAH LAU, WAH LIU AND WAH PIANG, and A for Ang Mo Kio, B for Bishan, C for Chua Chu Kang.. henry thia and mark lee did a great job in their respective appearances.. good for laughs and relax on a lazy weekend.. not for the non-hokkien pai and those serious freaks.. i rate it 3.5 out of 5 popcorns.. reached home almost 2 liao.. showered and still continue to work on some stuff.. turned in at dunno-wat-time..so the rest are history.. woken by chocolate yet fell into a slumber till 12+.. ate and start working on the 102.90 order.. finished by evening.. not sure wat i did after tat.. kept designing bah.. clearing stuff, watched abit of zhong yi da ge da.. showered, gambled with the same gang and won $2.90~~! FINALLY ~!! designed a pair of earrings which i intend to call it KATE.. packing up for tomolo's morning delivery etc etc.. now here blogging lor.. better sleep early bah :) tomolo will be a better day kekeZzz ^_^
Its My LiFe
YOY..! I really love doing this.. have been working on my jewellery production for almost 8 hrs.. and I really enjoy doing it.. my sis brought my samples over to her childcare centre this morning and it was almost like a HIT among the staff~! and there's even an order from a parent who happened to see the 40-pieces of samples lying on the table..! There was so many customizations to be done, so sis called me at 1pm when I just woke up half an hr earlier.. I think I better fight the battle myself so I can get MORE sales and HIGHER customer satisfaction.. so at 2pm, I rushed to Happy Family CCC which is just 5 mins walk from Bishan MRT.. sis told me everyone is waiting for me.. Kekez.. I hope to get as much sales as possible.. There I was, talking to the kids and we joked about Peter Pan being my bf.. ya I do hope my bf is Peter Pan so he can take me flying without having to pay airfare.. wahahaa.. they are really cute :) and I think I wanna have my own kids too in the future.. ^_^So I made total $171 sales in this trip..! YAY!! havent really calculated the margins, but I believe it shd be pretty high :) Then again, sis' fren have another about 50 bucks' order.. I had to get my materials as they had already ran out, so I took the train to chinatown and managed to get all my supplies in 2 different shops located within the same building.. thank goodness I dun have to visit another supplier in Bugis, else would be incurring more transportation expenses.. Exchanged a few sms with chris and kp on the way back.. kp ask for my program tonite, well, i just told him straight tat i had to work on production.. he shd get wat i meant bah.. then, i told him to go watch i do i do (highly recommended by chris!) but then i told him tat i am meeting an ex-colleague next week to watch.. and we also talked about introducing my christian fren, rachale to him.. wahahaa.. rachy rach, her nick in our ibmec days.. such a sweet, kind hearted and funny gal whom we had loads of joy and laughter back then, together with siti and han.. the 4 gals.. the lecturers remembered us this way.. we joked abt everything, teacher's names, teacher's behaviors, lecture topics, dancing in the toilet etc etc.. those days were great :)So i started work 7pm right after dinner.. I feel my work is kinda professional :) I wrapped up the finished product just like perlini's.. folded my own gift wrap paper and even printed receipt with my CreActionZ logo ^_^ almost completed all the orders except a few which need to customize to wrist lengths.. it was great fun and certainly better than working in avnet for a monthly salary of ~2k.. i rather do something i like than i dun so i enjoy my hrs better and dun feel tired at all :) somehow or rather, i feel i am even busier than when i was working.. now i seldom exercise and dun have time for my usual daily beauty regime... I feel i'm getting fatter with all the NY goodies and good food at home.. i just eat non stop.. however, when i am working hard, i dun even have time to drink water.. so i better get more sales :)well yest was a sianZ day.. no sales at all.. i woke up early at 730am to visit HDB to appeal for tat fine mei and i kena tat night.. Hush.. din tell mum but told sis and her bf, they damn experienced mah.. so told me to go hdb direct and fill up this appeal form.. and so i did and forging mei's signature (hush hush yor~!) so we shall wait and see if it is approve or not.. then i just ROT at home, chatting to chris on msn and designing my stuff again (non profit one).. then i made the GPC earrings YAY!! planning to issue on Sat sentosa yet it was cancelled this afternoon.. so i made for "Charlotte", represented by pink, "Carrie", by purple, "Mira" by yellow, and "SamSam" by Blue.. all 4 different designs yet pretty close enough.. just like the 4 GPC members, all different appearances, characters and lives, yet very close spiritually, esp in having fun :) feel sleepy the whole day, the 7am-wake-up was a killer and the caffeine in my morning coffee wasnt effecting.. i just remembered the ALMOST-DEAD feel and then almost felt asleep when sis called home telling us to "roll" downstairs for dinner.. so she drove us to punggol plaza for dinner lor.. i dun have much appetite as had some fried rice earlier, so i ordered chee cheong fun and a hot tea.. after tat, went home and i just ROTTED on bed for 1hr+.. but then was woken by sis, screaming GOT SALES GOT SALES!!! it was the 3 jewellery sets tat her fren ordered.. i couldnt start work as my materials ran out.. so i just joted down the materials to buy on the next day lor.. went online and chatted to mei and zhen on their uni application and some girlie gossips.. edited and commented on zhen's statements as required in the uni application.. slept pretty "early".. woke up at 12.30pm this afternoon and the rest are history...oh well, wednesday ah.. wat did i do ah..?? almost forgot.. oh yea, mei came to my hse on her uni application, then i eat, chat online, do some designing then went out to meet her again for a swim at YCK swimming complex.. bot a chicken prosperity burger from McDonald's.. YUMMY.. still add chili despite its already black peppered.. Will be meeting chris at far east tomolo ^_^ be sure its just window shop okie... not easy to run own biz and not easy to make profits in new businesses.. so must treasure every cent :)My life is pretty alright lately.. having left avnet and left my daily struggle with work/studies, i felt more relaxed now.. and i am more biz minded and focused in what i want.. I had left the life i used to have, though sometimes i still miss something and somebody, but then, its time to get on with life and accomplish new things... Ya, i still miss him lor.. no matter what, to know and to love a person is all fated by God, so it wont be easy to forget someone u once loved.. yet, when the magic is gone, life still moves on, no doubt.. Perhaps God never intended my life to be tat way, when I was with him.. I changed into someone I cant recognise.. I was timid, unfocused, no "direction" and pretty much a submissive gf.. I listen to watever he said and go whichever place he wants.. I made no choice and I am so easy going like a leaf.. i move to whichever direction the wind blows.. perhaps this is wat he disliked.. well, maybe i was intended for BIGGER things in life.. for achieving a BIGGER career and having a BETTER relationship.. I will remain POSITIVE and wait for tat day to come :) meanwhile, I just relaxed into my new free and easy life and wait for my degree cert to arrive in march ^_^
FeEling dustY
HellO hellO ~!! Ya, I din do anything today except designing a few pieces of jewellery and chatting with Chris online.. nO sales yet :( HaiZzz.. wasted my talent sia.. but i gotta be more patient.. just watched kungfu DVD.. kinda few scenes containing Stephew Chow, still my fav HK movie star.. Ok, so wat happened yest lei..? well, i remember waking up at 2.30pm, made chris a pair of color my life I, packed up some stuff then off to meet the gals at Bugis.. so we had sandwiches at breko then a walk in bugis st before the guys caught up with us.. well, its V-day mah.. shops close early so the lovebirds could go patoh.. I am single again this V-day.. well, it does not make any sense for me to feel lonely as i am surrounded by 4 frenz.. think spiritually i am still lonely bah, but then i think i kinda self healed as I dun really feel tat lonely anymore, unlike the period when he just left me.. think i still have alot of frens who really care abt me :) well then, the gals head off for shopping while the guys went to the arcade.. so chris bot a really nice urban mini skirt which i dun think i can ever fit in.. after tat we went to join the guys at the arcade.. spent some dollars there and fingers kena bruised from the punching and hitting of the machine buttons.. had fun though.. later, rainbow and i sneaked off to find ice-cream and we managed to find it in mcdonalds.. wahahaa.. we had a waffle cone each.. a short chat b4 we split.. rainbow and i head into kp's car while chris went off with her new beau *ops* we were driving past geylang when i suddenly tot of eating some yummy bean curd and rainbow wants to see the "Ji".. hahhaa.. so we stop by for youtiao and dou jiang followed by a patrol along geylang lanes led by an off-duty policeman.. so rainbow was sent home after tat.. chatting along the way with kp, well, not enough to enlighten him, so we drove up to the top level of multi storey carpark (mei, we must change our chat venue there in future to avoid the risk of the bloody-fine) think i am pretty straightforward in the hint tat we are not suitable.. well, he's rather vexed over his collapsed r/s and kept on feeling sad over it.. well, still cant get over it la.. though i still think of AL yet I believe I am in a better situation than him as I am more positive.. no doubt i still miss AL very much yet I tell myself tat if i meet a guy whom I fancy, i will move on and live my life to the fullest.. I believe my future will be very happy :) he called kanjana then but i dare not answer the call as I am pretty sure tat i might cry if i hear her voice.. omg.. this is the gal whom I call her my best fren (and always will be) 12 yrs ago.. i miss her so... we ended at 3am.. Overall evaluation of v-day 2005: 7/10and so the story goes.. today was just rotting at home lor.. watched kungfu.. and now chatting with meimei online.. she coming over tomolo YAY!!! i got company liao.. we'll be working on her uni application then we talk abt lunch.. i wanna have the mcdonalds cny chk burger lor.. wahahaa.. shiok shiok sia..
I'm Back!
Missed out blogging for an entire week.. first time sia.. my life's been pretty haywired lately.. wat am I doing at 5am in the morning..?? I guess months ago, I would be sleeping and the alarm clock would beep punctually at 7am to go to work.. been to a ktv session with my new hangouts hours ago.. well, i dun enjoy it, I must say.. I love singing so much tat I would put in my best and concentrate in every piece of music I sing.. therefore, I demand appreciation and attention.. however, the scene was like a market place, its like fighting to make ur singing/talking voice be heard in that noisy little cramped room.. I shd hangout in ktvs with the correct gang instead.. and so far, my best kboxing gang members are fernie, lian-jie and terence.. we listen when others sing, we appreciate and we learn from one another.. this is what we call serious singing and not crappy singing.. today's experience is just a relaxation to get away from my usual singing, yet I cant relax.. I still have to give in my best, and make my voice pleasant in every song I sing.. this is ME..Happy Lunar New Year~! Gong Xi Fa Cai~!! Last Monday was spent shopping~! Last min got a $100 Isetan voucher being belated bday gift from my avnet gang.. spent them all in Isetan @ Shaw House and paid an additional $9.30 for 2 tops, a skirt and a clutch.. Spent some $ in chinatown for my jewellery making materials too.. Tuesday was new yr eve, met up meimei at noon for her shoe hunting at xodus PS.. bot a pair of cute pumps at less than $40 with my 15% discount voucher.. Mum cook reunion lunch while dinner was eaten at auntie's hse.. at nite, we dress in all red to gamble wahaha.. just mum, sis and me.. I lost abt $1.00+, actually cant remember if I have lost or won.. Maybe have won but I dunno.. Wed, first day of CNY, caixia came for hse visit, went to auntie's place in the afternoon then at nite, relax into another gambling session tog with sis's bf, this time won abt $1.80.. AL called and i missed it while gambling.. abit shitty feel as I think I really miss him lor, dun deny leh.. Thu, CNY 2nd day.. went to ah-gong's place, BORED, real BORED.. met up my relatives and cousins.. not many babies to see this year, all are kept at their homes.. sianz.. went home pretty early to work on my jewellery.. at nite, gamble again and lost big time.. abt 13 bucks went down to drain.. haizz.. poor luck.. Friday, 3rd day liao.. wakey wakey up to gamble with the same gang and lost abt another 8 bucks.. kp and cobin came for hse visit and we pack up to go cheong.. first stop for visit to kp's hse, then pick up caixia, then to white sands to fetch chris.. we hit double O and david was waiting outside for us.. danced and drank.. and I was really drunk this time.. ya, became a merlion for the first time.. thrown up in newton circus.. dun care people staring and the onlookers, I just puke.. so, kp took care of me.. ya.. touched..?? to be frank, not really lor, i think any frens would take care of drunk frens.. went up to cobin's place in a group.. still hangover till 8+ b4 finally wake up for a quick french toast and go home.. at home, slept for almost the entire day.. wake up at 1pm, eat another french toast and Zzzz again till 5+.. almost couldnt eat anything yet forced myself to go dinner with mum at foodcourt.. couldnt finish the food for sure.. Overall Evaluation of cheong-nite: FUN but not as FUN as the previous time with our 2 meimeis.. danced with a few guys but they appear to me as super young and horny bunch of b*stards.. hack care them.. well, i can say tat i like dancing.. nvr tot that i would like dancing or even dare to dance and break free from my used-to-be-conventional tots.. and i think i can dance, non stop for a long time w/o feeling tired.. and i can follow the rhythm and have my own style in dancing.. Well, I can say that generally, Singaporeans CANT dance.. i can see on the dance floor what a ton of BAD/POOR dancers doubleO has attracted.. these people cant even follow the rhythm and beats and often you see their body language getting uncoordinated and unsynchronised with the music.. wat a SHAME.. their way of dancing is simply WEIRD in my sense.. i just feel tat, if you CANT dance, then dun make loud movements tat made me LAUGH.. WAHAHAHAAAA..... Sunday, poor appetite.. been working on my online jewellery store whole day.. OH YEA! its ready sia!!! http://groups.msn.com/wEnLoDy/shoebox.msnw still missed out on the product catalog, receipt book and the 30-day free repair service promise.. gotta do some book keeping as well.. so far, have done up the entire product listing, and material cost.. just need to tie up the loose ends.. ya, so went lianjie's place b4 ktv with new hangouts but din enjoy myself.. damage is 30bucks.. fernie to the rescue, we went supper at 401 then my place for a chat.. bloody shit, kena a summon.. but we will share no matter what.. must work hard to sell more jewellery and earn tat money back..so now, my plan is get a real job while doing my jewellery thingy as part time to generate extra cash.. needa learn driving and pay off the debts owed to my mother.. wanna go travelling as well.. now just learn to live my life the easy way.. getting new inspirations and adjusting my mood for new stuff.. so go back to tat merlion nite topic.. i babbled in the car tat i STILL miss and love AL and VERY MUCH.. one thing ivan adviced me is tat, if i cant forget then dun try to forget cuz tat will make me even more miserable.. just let it stay there and time will help to ease and lessen the pain tats all.. I still wanna stay in touch with him cuz i know i still care for him and just wish to know tat he's alright.. I will lessen tat out sooner or later i hope.. I was still conscious tat nite though tat din stop me from being uncontrolled on my feelings.. well, I still can make out what I was saying and everything everyone else said are still ringing in my ears.. it was nonethless, also a signal to kp to stop trying his luck on me.. we are just not suitable, I am very clear on tat.. there is no substitutes for AL and if i were to accept someone new, it would be the time when I have recovered and not substituting for lost love.. Tats it for today.. told a very long story and its time to get back to my CreActionZ Jewellery.. remember the name YOY~! and help to recommend more biz :P

Expect the Unexpected
Spent the whole of yesterday at home, cracking my brains over the jewellery thingy, weaving 2 more jet black crystal bracelets.. watched Big Fish.. that was the movie we watched in KL.. I missed and loved every scene of it.. This is really a great movie.. last minute decided to go chris' hse since she is free.. collected the materials and tools for jewellery making from her.. we had decided to drink my leftover tiger beer from my bbq.. david came along the way and joined us.. we had a good chat and downed 2 cans of tiger mix with sprite.. it was a great booze.. i took a cab home b4 midnight.. chatted with saporo till 3am and was making my earrings concurrently.. made 3 designs.. LOVE THEM!! only realise the strain on my neck after that..
Had a wonderful sleep and dreamt of something which i have forgotten.. as a result only woke up at 1pm today (WOAH!) still the same thing, make jewellery, watch tv, chat online.. went out at 4pm to bugis and blew another 65 bucks into jewellery making materials.. met up wee for dinner.. he bot me a meal at this Pasta restaurant (cant rem the name) just opp ajisen.. i had always passed by this restaurant yet nvr tasted the food.. okie, evaluation: the homemade mushroom soup is NICE! yummy and just at the correct temperature when served.. u know, some places serve soup which are too cold that taste like glue.. i had a pasta called "Hot chick", which is pasta, capsicum and chicken sausage.. I rate it 3/10.. why..?? TOO SALTY, SAUSAGE TOO LITTLE, OVERCOOKED CAPSICUM, AND TERRIBLY OILY.. the plus point perhaps is the taste is still ok.. salty makes it delicious, yet too much makes you thirsty.. and the saltiness is attributed by the chopped bacon cooked with thinly sliced garlic and mixed into the pasta.. this could also be a plus point based on its uniquenes.. GOURMET sia..! Service wise, not bad not bad, the cutlery are nice and the restaurant is well kept.. Overall Rating I would still give it a 6/10 with credits going to the mushroom soup..
Then i took a walk along bugis st again.. passing by OG to take a leek.. since it is ivan's knock off time so i ask him to wait at the sim lim junction then we could walk to little india station together.. i had a mint chip ice cream along the way.. reached home before 9 and began my new design of metal bracelet.. guess what, mum and sis loved it immediately and wanted me to do for them.. so i made sis one with a different color and threw in a matching pair of earrings.. she's gonna promote it for me in her office tomolo.. wahhahaa..!! can earn some $$ for my materials.. i gonna sleep soon.. end of report..
Expect the unexpected..
You passed by so many places each day, so many different people rubbed shoulders with you.. do you know any of them..? Do you even notice any of them..?? You could never expect who you gonna meet on the streets today without prior arrangements.. So, if you meet somebody you know, is it fate that brings you together..?? Today, at the crystal store, I met my sis' ex bf.. I used to call him david kor kor.. he lost alot of weight and became so much smaller in build.. yet I still remember his appearance.. he looks more matured now, unlike the impetus youngster when I was introduced to him 12 yrs ago.. so much memories between sis and her this bf.. 7 yrs of relationship which came to an end abt 4/5 yrs ago.. I only told mum I saw him.. sis is indulging in her newfound happiness with her current bf, I shall not disturb her with news of this past+bad memory.. As I was waiting for wee at bugis mrt today, I saw so many people wearing black, 80% almost.. nobody painted the world to be dark but why does everyone prefer this color..?? Like me too.. why dun we wear cheery colors everyday and paint the city scene a colorful tone rather than just plain black..?? Anyway, I enjoyed my day today.. I hope tomolo will be a better day too..!
Welcome Onboard Singapore Explorer
I slept at 4am last nite.. dun ask me why cuz I'm never gonna answer.. was really down last nite and poured out my woes to ivan over the phone.. din tell him all the stories, just touched the main points.. he knew i was really upset over the whole thing.. you know what, he CRIED with me over the phone.. besides my dad I think ivan is the next guy who loved me the most.. even though i treated him badly in the past.. to think, he waited 7yrs (he added one more yr last nite) in vain for me.. its too late to talk about anything now.. anyway we are great frens now..
I got up at 10am.. armed with my cammie, went out alone at noon.. been some time since I last walked along citylink all the way to suntec.. at HMV citylink, I gave in to buying an original keane album.. thats call the power of sampling.. i was totally mesmerized by 80% of the songs.. A music lover, how can i not get it..?? gave explanade a miss though I wanted to go.. planned my itinerary wrongly.. shd be esplanade-suntec-bugis, yet i only realised when i reached suntec that i shd have gone to esplanade b4 suntec.. too late (again)..
Toured suntec in an economical way.. usually would go carrefour and the shopping mall areas.. but not today.. I just walked along the shops, NO SHOPPING.. went up to sky garden and took some pictures.. reminiscing the days when we were there.. our first date and dinner was there, at sky garden, at the seemingly marche Jap restaurant.. we always like to go there.. esp sky garden, we looked at the stars there.. seemed like a long time ago... yet i still miss every bit of it.. walking over to the rice table side, the family mall, the arcade where he always had a go at the wheel.. i miss every little bit of it.. I had some fun on my own.. spent a dollar at the toy machine and got a majiam eerie butterfly thingy..
Walked the bridge to beach road (alone, again).. I was never good at exploring places.. he was the one to expose me to this bridge, where its the shortest route from suntec to bugis and vice versa.. passed by his fav pork chop rice stall at shaw food court.. all those little bits of memories are always carried along with me.. the table we once sat at.. the drinks stall had changed attendants.. other things remained the same, though the people who patronised there changed.. walked all the way to bugis and toured tat place abit.. visiting the edge.. those familiar stores we once stepped in together.. next stop i toured bugis st in a jiffy.. bot nothing, which is a good sign.. then i walked over to fu lu shou building and spent some time there buying materials for my jewellery making.. supposed to meet ivan in his office at sim lim till his knock off.. yet i felt like going home instead.. so i sms him to find out the way from bencoolen to little india, where i can take the NE train home.. well, he told me to cross over to sim lim and wait for him there, he will escort me over.. such nice treatment.. i dun think i deserve it..
I came home and start doing mother's blue crystal bracelet.. she loved the end result :) made another thinner one with her balance beads.. Here I am blogging and daydreaming.. thinking of him again and again.. It just never stop and got worse when I start to idle.. I dunno whats my brains made of.. mud..?? i am such a stick in the mud right? Telling myself not to deny, I really am still in it for him.. I dunno how long its gonna last.. maybe a very long time.. I just can't control it.. see, my mind's full of crap.. so, the moral of the story is, dun idle so much, get a job and keep your mind occupied with things.. throw those rubbish away..
My birthday flowers - A quick shot before they die out
Suntec City - View from 3 Floor.. see, so empty on a Tue afternoon
Sky Garden ~ Not even sure when they change the signboard.. dun think it was like this the last time I noticed it (not sure how long ago).. always rem that "Sky Garden" is written in green italic letters..
View from Sky Garden (the real Garden aka smoking area aka making out area)
Day View of the Sky GARDEN.. we once stood there looking at the stars at night.. I can still remember what we wore that day.. wonderful..??
The toy machines.. or rather capsules machines.. spent a bloody dollar and got a bloody toy which i think eventually would end up in the bin.. shd have taken pictures only, at least its FREE.. anyway had fun at this.. spent some time deciding which machine to slot the coin.. hey, some are really ex! there are like 2 bucks, 3 bucks and the most ex is 4 BUCKS! Its just so expensive to raise kids nowadays, even the toys, or rather a minute's novelty is so ex!!
They have capsule machines displayed everywhere in suntec (only now then i realise) on top of the machines they displayed these cute collections.. I had a great time taking pics! And this, I really like..! Mermaid..!!
This collection is also cute.. a collection of cute doggies with a butterfly on their noses and their body is made of transparent plastic casing.. Its so small and I wonder how much things we can put inside.. Anyway, if I remember correctly, this shd cost 3 bucks per capsule.. WOW!
Ya this store... contains alot of memories for me.. I rather not go in and relive them... just take a pic outside..
Yes yes, this is the power of sampling.. Keane's CD.. with a free photobook.. dunno what use.. but then it costs the same w/o the photobook, so why not..?? Got it from HMV while browsing the CDs.. had no intention to get really, but kena lured by sampling.. Shit.. to think I was a marketing student, yet I fell for it... yet to justify this purchase (or impulse), the songs are really NICE.. currently playing on my radio repeatedly is Bedshaped.. A really bitter sad song which represents my current mood.. Highly recommended CD! Songs like This is the last time, everyone's changing, Somewhere only we know.. etc.. Super NICE!
