tinyprint | Dec. 29th, 2009 12:49 am I'm really thankful I have a sister who enjoys shopping and can be on call to immediately head to town to accompany me. Because of that, I managed to hold out going into a salon to cut all my hair off and not die of boredom at the malls. I had a good 7 hours to kill so thankfully, she accompanied me for some shopping and a lot of bitching for 5 hours. And I have lost my ability to sleep on buses. I used to be able to sleep from NUS to Hougang Central but today's 2 bus rides convinced me that after driving for a few weeks, I am no longer able to enjoy a short nap on public transport. Can't decide if that's a good or bad thing. In other news. IS JOHN MAYER SERIOUSLY DATING SAMANTHA RONSON!?!?! My cousins and sister just updated me about this earlier and I was so shocked I went WTFBBQ? I liked Samantha Ronson so much more when she was gay. Which of course attracted some funny stares. Oops. But I stand by what I say! I mean yes, John your-body-is-a-wonderland Mayer makes pretty good music and can be quite hot from certain angles but him and Samantha DEEJAY Ronson!?! Pretty weird if you ask me! Anyway, I finally managed to clear some space for a mini bookshelf and this is the result.  I'm on Page 2 of The Unbearable Lightness of Being and I already know I'm going to like it. Middlesex was a really good read from earlier this year. I finally bought the book because I know I'm gonna pick it up to read again. And some new stuff I got from Etude House.  Masks for my mom, blusher for myself and a free pink fluffy pen. Super bimbo/gay, super cute. I want to go to Korea nowwwww.   The blusher's got pretty cute packaging. I kept the box! And it's pretty pigmented. And I love the pink fluffy pen! It's gonna be a permanent fixture on my office desk.  I'm glad I didn't buy anything today. I nearly went crazy at the hairband shop and would have walked away with 4 hairbands. Till I remembered I only have ONE head. | |

tinyprint | Dec. 26th, 2009 12:58 pm Dear 2009, I'm done with you. I've this theory. That odd numbered years are usually shit for me and even numbered years are better. Last night, on another bout of insomnia (I fell asleep at 4am), I got thinking about the past year and I think it tops with 2007 for being the worst years of my life ever.
Let's see, this year I was involved in 2 accidents, the year started off really bad with a lot of complicating and awful heart matters (which have now been put to rest indefinitely), my finances are pretty much ZILCH (I'm amazed at how I always start and end with 0), I traveled only once and it wasn't to anywhere new anyway, I didn't expand my social circle very much, met more douchebags than nice people and got myself into tons of stupid shit. All that time, it wasn't that bad though because I had the company of one but well, things never work out anyway.
On the upside, 2009 was great because I was in the internship for the first 6 months of the year. I made some really awesome friends and I learnt the most I've ever learnt since I got into university and I finally found something I like to do. And a few days ago, I finally got the confirmation that I am OFFICIALLY graduated from NUS. Really, I hate school so much that I am filled with so much happiness that I no longer need to go back to school for mind numbing lessons and whatever nots. And I think this year's really the year I learnt to value my family. I was thinking back upon the crash and it never actually occurred to me once that I should feel grateful or whatever that I am actually alive and kicking and not bed ridden in hospital. I mean really, what are the chances. 50%? Ha. And before that realization, all I was concerned about was how my parents would ground me, nag and etc and how I was gonna miss out on all the parties and what nots. Turns out nobody bothered to plan anything and I spent a happy Christmas with the family in the end. On hindsight, I find it supremely ridiculous how I actually thought, for a second, that my friends were gonna be more important. Ha.
I figured that if I stopped being so irrational and to give some thought to the things I do before I actually do them, I might actually save myself a lot of trouble and unhappiness. The thing is, I'm just the irrational and spontaneous sort. I can't seem to find any excitement if I were to put thought into every single action but I figure that since I'm no longer a kid, I should really at least begin to weigh some of my decisions. In 2009, I can easily count with my fingers, the no. of decisions I made which I did not regret and stood firmly by. That's kinda sad actually.
My second biggest lesson of 2009. Maybe not so much a lesson but more of a realization that nobody cares about you as much as yourself. That we should never for once feel that we can depend on anyone. I know it's kinda bleak but it is true. At least from my perspective. Humans are self centered anyway, let's not even begin to discuss about others but ourselves. I can safely say that I'm pretty self centered so if that's the case then why not everyone else. Just a matter of a few observations from everyday happenings.
I love writing. It is so cathartic. And to sum up the holidays, I shall watch all the Wong Kar Wai movies I have yet to watch. Funny how the Internet inspires me at the weirdest hours. 2 comments - Leave a comment | |

tinyprint | Dec. 20th, 2009 11:35 pm Friday was stuff-myself-to-death and get-my-head-crushed-by-my-headband day. Hit town and spent the day there, thankfully, parking wasn't a killer but I had to walk up and down. For anyone who's interested in heading to 313@Somerset, please, for the love of god, park at the mall next door. 313@Somerset's parking rate is $3 per hour!!!! Orchard Central, which is just next door, is $1 for the first hour, and $0.80 per subsequent 1/2 hour from 2am to 6pm. Which is pretty reasonable for parking in that side of town, might I add. If you feel like walking, then the best place to park would be Plaza Singapura with its 1st hour free parking, $1.05 for the next hour and a $0.30 for the next subsequent 15mins from 10am to 6pm.
If I continue any further, my blog will become a potential car park rates and ERP rates discussion site.
So moving on... I met the other interns for a really short lunch and a quick roundabout Forever21 at 313@Somerset. F21 was disappointing. It must have been the messy layout and inflated prices (I'm always thinking about how much cheaper it is online!) and all the young kids and wannabes. Urgh. Shameless but I think my skin looked deceptively good that day.
 Anthony and I then continued with cake and coffee while we bitched talked about his fucking funny girl problems and other random things. I think mostly, it was him talking and me listening and offering my really skewed advice. Raspberry Cheese Cake from Coffee Bean was pretty delicious! I've been on a cheesecake frenzy since that visit to Cheesecake Factory with Karen and Carmen last week. Need to go back there again.   And then at night, it was off to Timbre (my first time!) for damn good roasted duck pizza and then Starbucks after that. I thought it was quite nice but PK was being bitchy about the crackers. They kept falling out but they were nice anyway!    We look frigging mother old as compared to last time. Maybe it's just me. I don't want to age!!!!! Anyway, it's another 11 days to the New Year. And Christmas, is quite literally, just around the corner. Am I the only one feeling sad that Toffee Nut Latte's gonna be missing from the Starbucks menu very soon? Gah. | |

So what if it hurts me?
So what if i break down?
So what if this world just throws me of the edge
My feet run out of the ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear myself
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
Cause i'm just trying to be happy
Just wanna be happy.
I'm triggerhappy noww! It's 3hrs to waking up and 6 hours plus to my flight to Hongkong! And i'm taking SIA there. My mom is v excited because she has never taken SIA in her entire life. hahaha!
I'm 80% packed! Doing mental checklist as i looked upon my luggage. I have the i-think-forgot-to-bring-something-but-dont-know-what-it-is kind of feeling. I know everyone has that feeling before they fly off. I wish i could bring my whole house. That way, i could have everything without worrying that i forgot something. I wish i was a snail. Whole house strapped to the back. hahhaa.
Another happy thing. Had Macs breakfast with Baybay. We talked alot and shared alot and ate alot. hahahhaa. It was very fun dissing boys. hahahah!
Somehow i cant wait to go to Hongkong, and can't wait to be back.
I love Christmas. Love everything about Christmas. It makes me really happy! heeheee Leave a comment | |

misssmallfeet | Dec. 19th, 2009 01:34 am I like this:
" I spend 23 hours a day wondering whether we’re wrong for each other, wondering whether we’ve got the energy that we need to get through everything that we seem to get into, whether the baggage we both bring would sink a small ship. But in the 24th hour, I realize I’ve been thinking about you for 23 hours. There’s something about you I can’t stay away from. Something about you, that makes me want to love you.

I never knew the meaning to this song until i saw the whole lyrics just 10 mins ago. All this while, i was just singing along in my dad's car - it's one of my dad's usual jukebox songs - without knowing the right lyrics. Singing words that makes sense to the ears. It's quite a sad song ah and i still can sing happily in the car without knowing. hahaaha Wrong kind of emotions man. Poor sally. I don't think the guy will get over Alice and she'll never be acknowledged by him. She'll not get her chance. ): Leave a comment | |
misssmallfeet | Dec. 17th, 2009 11:58 pm i wish you would love me too.
If you want my sympathy,
Just open your heart to me,
And you'll get whatever you'll ever need.
You think that's too high for you,
Oh baby, I would die for you,
When there's nothin' left,
You know where I'll be.
Lay back in the arms of someone,
You give in to the charms of someone,
Lay back in the arms of someone you love.
Lay back in the arms of someone,
When you feel you're a part of someone,
Lay back in the arms of someone you love.
So baby just call on me,
When you want all of me,
And I'll be your lover I'll be your friend.
And there's nothing I won't do,
'Cause baby I just live for you,
With nothing to hide, no need to pretend
Lay back in the arms of someone,
You give in to the charms of someone,
Lay back in the arms of someone you love - darling,
Lay back in the arms of someone,
When you feel you're a part of someone,
Lay back in the arms of someone you love.
Oh I know you think that's too high for you,
Oh baby, I would die for you,
When there's nothing left, I'll be with you.
Lay back in the arms of someone,
You give in to the charms of someone,
Lay back in the arms of someone you love - baby,
Lay back in the arms of someone,
When you feel you're a part of someone,
Lay back in the arms of someone you love - oh yeah Leave a comment | |
