TIMELESS

Scary Saturday.

The orders flow like water out of the machine. It's nightmare for me!

I can forgive and forget. But not THAT easily.

Anyway, I broke the fish head curry pot cover. OMG. I'm really impossible.

When people go crazy, they turn into monsters.

F&B work is really good training for me. I'm like a princess at home!

Masked people. Living everyday like clowns.

I have more than 5 burns on my hands! Stupid hotplates.

Experiencing, like never before
Learning, like a child
whose eyes finally see
how vast the world can be
Speaking
More from the heart and soul
than from the lips
Thinking, feeling, understanding
Loving, hating
Longing, hoping, dreaming
A heart, pounding with the rhythm of triumph
So glad of its existence
So full of courage to face what lies ahead
So eager to give life all the tenderness it needs...

November is ending... I can't believe it's one year since I took my A levels. I'm so tired... Can't think of more words for this entry. I just... can't believe... can't believe... Argh I don't know.

Good night.

People come and go.
Sometimes all I need is more time.
Or a chance.
To say or do something, anything, that may change the outcome I am facing now.
This reality, may become something else. That's what I mean.
But reality is truth, and it is this. This, cannot be something else already.
For the time has passed, the chance is gone. Regret comes.
I can do nothing now, but move on.

I realized, I have never decorated a Christmas tree before. Maybe I have, 800 years ago, I cannot remember. It's strange how unfamiliar I feel when hanging pretty ribbons on those hard, prickly branches. Those trees, their shape comforting at this time of the year, long-time friends you only see when winter comes, when snow falls. Christmas carols are playing all day, Christmas decorations are put up. People wait for Christ's birth, for another year to end. I wait for my memories here to end, for new memories to be made somewhere else. So many things I ought to have done, so many words I should have said, so many feelings I wished to remember...

Regret comes.

PS: Number of injuries increasing... increasing... I feel like I'm 50 years old. LOL.

Ran my lungs out for the last train, and thank God, I caught it.

I looked like a freak today. Probably the ugliest in my entire life.
I realized something: My fringe is ultra important. Without it, I look like a freak.

Bad organization. Bad, bad, bad. Synchronized? My foot lah. Just a waste of time. Didn't even get to see Obama. Caught a glimpse of the back of his head probably. Stupid media was crowding around the front, taking photos and making noise, making a big fuss out of 20 over world leaders eating beef.

There was hell a lot of food wastage. Managed to try their praline, bread and jelly ching teng. I want to eat the beef lah...

Spent most of the time waiting for time to pass... What an unproductive day. I might as well stay home and watch TV.

I'm tired. Not once not tired in this entire week... Good night.

TAIPEI (29 Oct - 1st Nov)

Pictures speak a thousand words. Go my fb.

Tagboard is taking up space. Anything to say go my fb.

Mans, fb is really taking over the world.

Work is freaking... can't think of a suitable description now. But it's definitely more exciting than an admin job. For those who don't know, I'm serving at this restaurant at town area... I don't hope to see you there. LOL. My whole body aches all the time coz I work 6 days a week running around with trays. Weight loss seems promising now. I spilled water on my first day of work and Boss's face turned black. Literally. I get orders wrong, I send food to the wrong table, I break rice bowls... I can only get better. I will only get better. Now I know, restaurants are really really unhygienic. The 'A' standard means nothing. It's just a cert pasted on the wall. And I finally see with my own eyes, a boss that has all that qualities I NEVER, EVER, want to possess. Once you've shown your evil face, even if it's just once, no matter how much of your nice face you show after that I'll only think it's fake. And and, if you want to stand on people's heads make sure you've got the ability to do so. Not when you can't even read English AND Chinese. I like it when people are nice to me. When we talk, joke and laugh. But when the stress comes, or when Boss is around (which is ALL THE TIME. Hell, why must she come everyday?!), it's difficult for people to communicate nicely and comfortably with each other. I wonder how long I can survive this.

That's all for now. My legs hurt, my back hurts, my arms hurt, even my fingers and toes are hurting. I've got cuts and burns and blisters and what not. 100% self-torture. I'm doing this for money... Not now. When I'm in Aussie. Get it?

I wonder if I'll get to see Obama this Saturday.

PS: Famous Princesses is nice! 80 episodes of tears and laughter!

PS(2): Happy birthday Xue Nan and xi'en! ^^, Love you both.

It's Me Again... Missed me?

Ok, to lengthen this blog post I'm gonna dig out stuff that happened 800 years ago but didn't make it to this page because of poor memory or laziness...

UP with Char. I like the movie, it's funny and touching. Cone of shame... HAHAHA. I can't believe I still find it funny after so long. But the weird thing is, no one finds it funny! And I was laughing by myself in the cinema.

Chomp Chomp + Mahjong-playing at Minghan's house. (HAHAHA this happened before Grace left but I forgot to blog it!) Yeap, it was fun. Mh's mama was super high. I'm quite bad at mahjong! Need more practice!

MOF with Singhealth girls! We drank pots and pots of green tea and made so much noise while taking photos. Ate sinfully delicious desserts. The green tea ice cream is great!

G-Force with Char and Mh. Watched it in 3D. The movie's not bad, just that I don't like the accent.

K-ing with Singhealth girls at the cheap karaoke at Peace Centre. We sang 3 hours FOC because of this coupon I chanced online! After that was dinner at Cafe Cartel. Tried the famous ribs.

Aliens in the Attic with Char. The movie's hilarious! Had Kyo-nichi at Marina Square for dinner. The ramen's not bad. Ate sinful orea cheesecake at Coffee Club for dessert. Not as nice as Secret Recipe's.

Went out with Yuan, my shopping partner! Had lunch at Ichiban Sushi at Hougang Mall. We walked around ION and The Central, and did nothing but spend money. Had Waraku Pasta for dinner. Nothing soothes the soul like retail therapy. =)

Dinner with Jasly Koo, my MSN partner for the two torturous months I spent in the office. MSN-ing with her made hell a little more bearable. Had Thai Express for dinner. Tiong Bahru PLaza is one ulu and run-down place. Worse than Hougang Mall.

Lunch with xi'en at Ajisen at J8. Spent the afternoon talking and walking around. I think I can tell her everything and anything under the sun! =)

Picnic with IMH girls! Well, not exactly a picnic because we didn't have a mat. A pity Yvonne couldn't make it! Marina Barrage is one windy place! Couldn't take nice photos because of the wind. Ended up taking jump shots. Laughed like crazy at the unglam photos. My strawberry cheesecake and jelly were not too bad! 80% made by my mummy... LOL. The crust wasn't strong enough because we added too little butter, so it ended up looking like strawberry yogurt with biscuit crumps... But it was nice!!! After a few hours of eating and jumping at Marina Barrage, we had our rest at TCC at City Hall. The milkshake I had was nice! My first shot at something non-coffee.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs with Char! (Today.) The movie's not bad... Full of food. LOL. Had Watami at ION for lunch! The food's not bad! The tea is best! =)

Phew~ I'm done with outings.

My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult

It's nice... Touching. I actually cried, omg. I like this book because it makes me think. Those classic descriptions of raw and tender pain, undying and unconditional love, adolescent confusion and bottled-up tears... unique, close-to-the-heart emotions, are really really really well-written.

Whitney, My Love & Once and Always by Judith Macnaught

I don't particularly like love stories, but these have an interesting storyline plus real humour that makes you laugh, so, why not?

Anyway, I'm unemployed again! My 2 freaking months at the office is finally over. I wanna say thank you to the few people who showed kindness to me during my contract. Now, I just wanna FOCUS on... ah, you know.

Ohh, and my parents like the veggie soup I cooked yesterday! I promise to learn how to cook nice nice food for my room-mates next year! =)

To end off, here are some videos...

This cute guy can dance...

A short 50-seconds film that speaks a thousand words. This is really touching...

Some 2NE1's Fire Parodies. Hilarious.

See the original one first.

Korean students... LOL.

31!

Oh and before I say byebye... Is my blog music a little too depressing?!
So long guys. Cheers. =)

Ask yourself, what do your tears mean. If you cry, that is.

Tears of pain, for the kind of world that strives on nothingness?
Tears of anger, for what God has created in exchange for that heaven you own?
Tears of pity, for yourself?

There is so much we don't know, we ignorant fools. So much we take for granted.
But what can we do?
A prayer cannot change the world.
Money is never significant.
You light yourself up in flames, but what have they done?

To blood that runs for justice. What can we do?

我身騎白馬走三關
我改換素衣回中原
放下西涼沒人管
我一心只想王寶釧

If there is something
someone
to keep me going
to keep me alive
to keep the fire within me burning
I will wait
I will sing
I will make everyday as beautiful as the sun

Even if it means 18 years of my life

Singing.
Makes.
The.
World.
Go.
Round.

With my voice, I can bring music to the world, and the world into music.
No instrument is more powerful than that that exists inside me.

Went to the cheap karaoke at dhoby ghaut area with my IMH girls for our routine outing! Sang for like 4 hours until all of us were starving, then had Ajisen at PS for dinner. Yvonne's boyfriend sent us home again! YAY! Looking forward to our wonderful picnic...!!!

I'm so tired... My calves ache. Sudden feeling of emptiness. Maybe I'm just bored... Or maybe its oestrogen and progesterone influencing my serotonin levels... Yawn.

Opus Deli apple crumble is nice!!! And I love the avogado milkshake from this 2nd level fruit stall at Amoy Street Food Centre! Oh, and there's this stall that sells great muffins! I sound like a glutton. ...I'm on a diet, really!

PS: Jasly Koo is finally 19... A birthday song for you~! 生日快乐, 生日快乐, 惊悉韶光匆促...!!!~~~ Hahaha.
