My JPSAE interview

2012-01-18T14:27:00.002+08:00

I applied for JPSAE as I had this feeling I was unable to get into my desired course. It's visual communication and the 2011 COP was 14. After my CCA cut off I got 15..so yeah you should know how much I got. Since I still have a chance, so I applied for both JAE and JPSAE.

Through this experience of JPSAE I learned a lot, like I must never be last minute. I had to do a lot of research on the course, because I won't know what questions may be asked against me. (Questions I can't answer) My interview was at 10 am yesterday and I woke up at 7 am to print and compile my stuffs together. It was frantic and crazy..which is why I felt so last minute. By the time I was ready it was 9:20 am..and I was told to be at the design office 15 minutes earlier. So I cabbed down instead. Turns out, I was the third interviewee and my interview ended up to be at like 10:30 am. Well, better than being late?

It was an individual interview and I faced 3 lecturers. I think I described too much about my portfolio things because I was kind of cut off..:s The lecturers kinda taunted me about the cold hard truths about VSC..that it's gonna be very tough every semester. Actually, I knew it was going to happen sooner or later. Having taken D&T, it was like a predecessor, so I kind of expect that VSC is gonna be really tough. One of the lecturers went like, "You won't cry in a corner right?"

There was this painting I did and I added glitter on top and the lecturer said, "I hate glitter. Makes everything messy." I just kept quiet :S I think he disliked lomography too. Oops. You can't satisfy everybody anyway. Gah.

After the interview, I received some well responses from them. Funny thing is that they didn't read through my testimonials nor even ask about my results. They just scanned through all of it. I suppose for design courses your portfolio is more important than others. I think I'll be receiving both JAE and JPSAE posting results on 30 January. Anticipation!

Oh yeah, I saw Amelia too! She went for the JPSAE interview too, but different course. It was a pleasant surprise ^.^

Also not to forget people who have helped me a lot through this process and also prayed and gave me lots of luck. Thank you so much!! XX

Love is louder than the pressure to be perfect.

Join the movement. Love is louder.

Gonna get inked.

2011-12-27T13:05:00.001+08:00

Done that above yesterday using permanent marker. And I'm tired of re-tracing the words all over again. I wanna get inked so much.
I've been wanting to get a tattoo since last year. I think tattoos are beautiful, especially if they bring about stories and/or meanings in your life. Tattoo is a form of art.

I asked my mum if I am allowed to get a tattoo, and surprisingly she allowed me to! What's more surprising is that she understands that it's art. Now, the only person I have to ask would be my dad.
I don't know when I wanna get inked, maybe until I have come to a conclusion of a design. I want something unique, something nobody has it. Something that belongs to only me. :)

Initially I wanted to get inked on my left wrist, then I thought would it be dangerous? Because after all that's where the veins are, right? And then I thought of the back of my palm and the side of my fingers - but I guess maybe not 'cause the tattoo might be quite small.

I love the meaning behind her first tattoo. ♥ And she's so gorgeous too!
Initially I was hesitating about wanting one, because I fear that when I work in the future I might not be allowed and the future complications that might just bring to myself. Yes I think that far. too much? There would definitely be pains, and I hope I am able to tolerate it~

Tokyo Tower

Anyway, something off-topic: I celebrated Christmas eve with the youths of E474 by having steamboat. That night was really really crazy and one of my friends laughed till he cried. HAHA. But the next morning I had diarrhoea and I wasn't the only one. Lol still, that night was well-spent!

Last night, I had thanksgiving dinner and gifts exchange with E474 again~ Funny thing is Thanksgiving is right after Christmas in Singapore. :o We hanged at The Coffee Club in Paragon. The main dishes are quite exotic to me but I was able to adapt to it. Too used to local food~
I received a Starbucks tumbler from the gifts exchange!! I was so delighted about it 'cause I have always wanted one. Good things do come to those who wait. :) We just gotta be patient.

Oh yeah, my first pair of monthly contact lenses have expired. (;A;) Thought I could overuse them by a day or two, but just, too baddd.
But, I guess Christmas gets better each year for me.
Can't wait for 2012 d(^.^)b

だきしめてもいいんですか？

2011-12-11T20:32:00.001+08:00

Those were just part of photos taken from my typical practice for portraiture.
And yup, I've still got a lot to learn.

By the way, on Monday I decided to make some 親子丼　(oyakodon) for lunch! Before that, I went to Yamakawa Super to look for めんつゆ mentsuyu and　そうめん　soumen. However, it didn't sell めんつゆ but つゆ tsuyu instead. So i got that one and it turned out fine for the dish. よかった！

親 oya stands for parent (in this case is the chicken), 子 ko stands for child (the egg) and 丼 don is the rice.
A typical 親子丼 looks like this:

おいしそう！ :9

It's really easy to cook! I'm still a beginner at cooking and for someone like me to say it; trust me it's easy ^.^ I think the only difficult part is like getting the ingredients? I learned how to make 親子丼 from this YouTube video:

Skip to 0:30 if you want to watch just the main part.
One of the Japanese YouTubers I like is Runnyrunny999. :D
He stated that this method is a cheat one, because the original recipe is to use だし dashi soup (which i have no idea how to get that) but he said that めんつゆ mentsuyu has been already seasoned by dashi and soy sauce.
I don't know how does the original one tastes like, as that was my first time trying 親子丼.

I love Japanese cuisine a lot, because they serve like really generously and the way they add all the garnishes and stuff..makes me enjoy food. Japanese cuisine gave me the deepest impression I guess. Or maybe I'm just biased. (￣▽￣)
Here's an example of being generous:

尾道ラーメン Onomichi Ramen from Hiroshima.

Like, omg?! (*ﾟДﾟ) Look at that multitudinous amount of spring onions. And you know what, I love spring onions a lot.

..And this:

ラーメンゼロ Zero Ramen (o.o) from Tokyo.

If there was a longgg street of Japanese food stalls right below my flat I would

and I would

uh huh.
じゃあね(*^ｰ^)ﾉ~~☆

You Are the Apple of My Eye.

2011-12-06T12:47:00.001+08:00

【那些年，我們一起追的女孩】

This is the latest movie I've caught so far.
You Are the Apple of My Eye is a Taiwanese romance film which is based on the semi-autobiographical novel which has the similar title by Giddens 九把刀.

As a nostalgic person, I enjoyed each and every scene of the movie. If I were asked to watch it again, I don't mind at all! This movie reminded myself of typical secondary school days. I watched it with my friends and they are still in craze with the movie. They even wanted to get the novel. I heard it was so popular that many Popular bookstores sold them out. I had thoughts of buying the novel too but then again, it's Chinese. (I figured out I'll have problems reading it.) But if you're interested in reading the novel, it's on the App Store for free! You can even choose to read in either traditional or simplified Chinese.
However the ebook is only up to like, 50 chapters? I'm not very sure either..

I think Michelle Chen (who acts as the lead female Shen Chia-Yi) is so pretty! I like her smile, so sweet and simple. I remembered she acted as Rainie Yang's best friend in Why Why Love. Of course, don't forget the lead male, Ko Chen-Tung (Wikipedia says he's a first-time actor!), he reminded me of one of my classmates. I think Ko Chen-Tung is very charismatic~ If I'm not wrong, I think one of the supporting actors is from Lollipop. Right?

The whole movie itself gave me a retro 90's feel. It's near 2 hours long. My friends and I laughed like no tomorrow~ Some of the scenes were quite boys-mocking. 打手抢~HAHA. If you were to talk to me about the movie I'd still laugh about it.

Why are the uniforms like for prisoners kind? I didn't know there were numbers on the uniforms until I saw the photo. Are all Taiwan schools in the past like that? :o
He even looks so handsome from his back HAHA. The uniform with lots of blue dots is just memorable. -Tries hard not to be a spoiler-
The moment I came back home first thing I did is to download all the soundtracks HAHA. My favourites are 那些年 and 孩子氣.

【孩子氣】
Completely self-composed and sung by Michelle! Love her sweet voice :)

【那些年】

SO CUTE.

So yeah, if you're still hesitating or have yet to watch, watch it already! Writing this post itself makes me wanna watch it again. Yup, that's how nice it is.

Do you like changes?

Since it's absolute freedom now so I purchased a pair of contacts and hair dye.
I used the Liese hair dye (Chestnut Brown) and it didn't go well.
I came up 4 reasons to support why I failed:
▲ It's my first time dying my hair (so the dye chemicals weren't absorbed much).
▲ I had to take out my specs hence everything was a blur.
▲ It's bubble shampoo dye. (Many said they aren't as good as the classic ones)
▲ I'm a noob.

Damn.

Perhaps I might re-dye my hair again after I collected my O level results which should be on the second week of January.
Never mind about the hair colour. Yup, I started wearing contact lenses on 24 November, which was right after the TPRawks! event. Since it was my first time wearing them (and I've been waiting for this day), I had both the fear and excitement inside. The optometrist put them on for me first and my eyes were all teary. I didn't experience any pains but definitely there were discomforts (of course). I took 30 minutes at the optometrist's.
Viewing the world without spectacles feels like having new pair of eyes. I sound like I'm exaggerating because I have been wearing specs since I was 6 (´△｀)↓ so having the plastic load off my face is a huge 気持ち moment for me~ I'm getting better at putting and removing them now! I guess the phrase "practice makes perfect" suits this.

Here's my naked single-eyelid eyes and chubby cheeks. Do I look better without my spectacles?
Initially I wasn't used to this look, thinking that I need to put on some light make up lol. But now I feel a lot better.

Nails that were drawn and painted by my friend last month ;)

Prom Night!

My dear friend Pearlyn (above) helped me with the make up, hair and nails. Thank you babe!! （*＾3＾）/〜☆
I've spend a lot for prom and my skirt was the most expensive and it wasn't worth the price. But still~
I wore 2 inch heels and they were enough to make my feet super sore.
I guess I was quite lucky to get to attend prom, because it was the first prom ever in East Spring's history! (*□*) Even though it was boring at some parts, still I enjoyed dancing and taking photos with all my friends. ヽ(*^ｰ^)人(^ｰ^*)ノ♪♪

I decided on wearing a maxi skirt because I wanted to try different things. Most of the times I'd wear short skirts and short shorts so yeah. It was a hassle (accidentally step on it) but I liked the flare!
Nobody asked why I bought a pink one (because I dislike pink, remember?) haha! Some guys even thought I was wearing a dress lol.
Okay, the reason why I chose light colours is because I want my outfit to be of earthly colours. My inspiration is from here. Rest of the photos are on facebook c:
Aww man, I'll miss most of the 5Ns badly D:

Many have asked me what I've been up to during the holidays, and I just tell them I'm wasting my time and money away. (That's the truth.) I went to many shops to apply for part-time jobs but to no avail. I guess I'm not working this month, 'cause I'll be heading to Malaysia again and who wants to hire someone who's traveling on a festive season? Still, I can't wait to go there again ;)
Sad part is, I'll be missing out the Candlelight service in church this year! Sob. ・゜・(つД｀)・゜・

Journey.

2011-11-11T12:18:00.001+08:00

"Growing up." A simple phrase that is full of fear yet sounds exciting.
When I was younger, I wanted to grow up so badly. I wanted to be an adult so nobody would boss me around and I can go home as late as I could. But as each day goes by, I stopped wishing for it. I can't boldly ask for something that I want. I can't be dependent on people around me anymore. Most of all, whenever I fall, I have to stand up on my own. I have to defend whatever I say, 'else it might just consume me.
However, growing up isn't really all that bad. I began to realise this world is actually a beautiful place. I knew the other earthlings from the other side of the world (and Singapore!) I came to know how blessed I actually am to have a roof over my head, to have such caring parents. When I was younger, I have never realised nor even appreciated for such little things.

Then again, I became more self-conscious about myself. From my looks to actions, I constantly compare myself with others. As a result, my self-esteem has deteriorated. I hide inside my limitations, afraid that I'd get laughed whenever I try. During my adolescence, I'm constantly tired. "Torn apart, Insecure, Really faking my smile, Extremely sad and Drowning in my tears." People disappoint me and I blame myself. I'd get my heart broken. Many times I lost faith to humanity and let the already-plagued society define who I aren't.

But! Despite every crap, it is two things that kept me adrift. Hope and love. Whenever I needed a listening ear or advice it would be just a phone call away. There would always be that one or two who wouldn't judge me and mean it. (I'm sure there are for you, you just gotta find!) And there's hope. "Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sing the tune without the words but never stops at all." It's like the rechargeable battery to my almost-dying soul. I may fail occasionally, but hope allows me to retrace my steps and remember every place I saw it last.

Every sadness or failure I went through, are stepping stones of life. Even if I have the chance to erase them from my memory, I wouldn't. Because they make me who I am today. I do have some regrettable moments, but they made my life more interesting and adventurous. Moving on and letting go are the worst advices but with time, I grew accustomed to doing it.
At the age of 15, I begin to realise the beauty of dreams. I became a full-time dreamer. (And still!) That was also when I came to know how powerful the word "believe" is. Having dreams gave me strength to keep on moving forward. I dreamed many dreams, sticked to them, went forward and tried my best to make them real. "Dreams are like stars. They seem so faraway, yet never too far to reach."
I also believe in miracles too. "Miracles happen to those who believe in them." - B. Berenson. Yes, they exist. You just gotta believe. Don't wait for miracles, expect them to happen to you!

I have many wants and ambitions, though I haven't really decided what I really wanna become yet. I've only wanted to be a part of the creative industry..gah. As for now, I try to make each day fulfilling (as much as possible) because time waits for no man. I somewhat screwed my body clock and sleep later than 12am occasionally. (When I was younger I thought sleeping late like that was taboo, but now who cares). I hated sleep (though I would like to have a power nap or two) as it wastes time. Imagine all the things I could do within the long hours of unconsciousness.

Now, I'm 17. And I'm still growing up. The future holds the unknown. My future will be reaped with what I'm sowing in the present, as long as I do my best in everything. If I had the chance to meet my 15 years old self, I would tell her not to worry (and procrastinate too much!). I'm ready to embrace whatever path I'm walking in. Tides I may face, but who know there might be blessings in disguise. Nothing happens by coincidence, there's a meaning behind everything. It's so good to be alive and be able to feel. Stop everything you do and take a deep breath once in a while. Growing up is a pain but trust me, you'll find your destination while you doing so. You'll enjoy the journey without knowing it. (･∀･｡)

"When you arise in the morning, think of what a privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love."
- Marcus Aurelius

Redecoration part 1

"These are not moments lost. These are moments FOUND."
I have always, always, always wanted to do this.
A PHOTO WALL.
Now that it's the holidays, i decided to seize the time by making it! Besides, it doesn't take a day to do this.
I rummaged through the folders from my computer thoroughly and i took a long time to decide what photos to be printed..
I spent a lot of money for printed them too, like $14.50? (´；д；`)
I was really stupid..i went to the instant printing machine for printing instead. It was like almost 90cents/photo..? While waiting for the machine to complete its printing, the auntie was like, "girl, why didn't you tell me you are going to print so much? The other machine is 36cents/photo!"
And i was like

Okay fine, serve myself right for not asking? ┐(￣ヘ￣)┌
However she also told me that the cheaper machine would have to take me an hour for the processing to complete. Okay..
Here's a step by step process of how i created my photo wall. Not really a step-by-step. :L

I think overall it's a little plain. I think i should close up the gaps a little and more a few photos..should i?
The wall seems so weird from looking at a photo.
And and! That's not my wall color. I wish it was! It's actually sky blue, i just don't get why my camera sees it as turquoise. :s
I took only about 1.5hours ^_^.

That's all for part 1..i shall redecorate my noticeboard real soon!
Till then! ☺

きのくにや☆

2011-08-27T15:00:00.001+08:00

Finally, i've got some rest time~I hardly have any rest this week, thanks to, yes, coursework! (┳Д┳) The MOE deadline is next wednesday, and i have to go back to school on monday to complete what i have not done. 疲れたぁ・・・

Anywayyyy~
I've gotten back all of my prelim results! I'm statisfied with my english and social studies. Most improvement in these two. (￣∇￣)b

And oh, i've received my chinese o levels results too; i passed it but with an average result. Guess all you want~ Remember i said i'm gonna retake? Well i've decided not to retake anymore because the result was pretty much my standard had always been around there. Besides, i'm only left with 1-2 months, i feel that i might as well use the time for other subjects, because i'm not doing well in others too.
I hesitated a lot in making this huge decision, because my chinese teacher gave me a choice whether if i want to retake or not. _|￣|○ Sometimes i even wonder if i made the right choice..

I took my english o levels oral on thursday! I was the second last candidate.It was tricky (´д｀､) The topic was about sports, which coincidentally the same topic as my n levels. I stopped a lot during conversation because i couldn't think (´；ω；) Arghhhhh. Also, the passage was full o
f words with "th". But one good thing is that i managed to engage the examiners a little. (●´∀)

19 August
That day was my very last prelim paper day.
Racy asked me out for some post-prelims activity and we walked around Orchard. She wanted to visit the Art Friend outlet there and i wanted to go to Kinokuniya! (*´･∀･`)—♡♡
We walked around many stores, from Forever 21 to Kinokuniya. Don't forget Daiso! hehe.

All the Japanese books were so attractive and pretty~
The moment i opened the books they were nothing but characters. (￣Д￣) Too bad i couldn't read those kanji.. I believe they are novels (those story books)?..┐('〜`)┌

Currently, i'm addicted to listening to this song called 「PONPONPON」:

きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ Kyary Pamyu Pamyu is just too cute. (´∪`)Listen to 「Jelly」too! PON PON WAY WAY WAY, PON PON WAY PON WAY PON PONWAY WAY POM PON PON, WAY WAY PON WAY PON WAY WAY
└(・。・)┐♪┌(・。・)┘

Oh yes~
I bought a comic book from Kinokuniya! It's called 靴下にゃんこ毎日なんだかシアワセ(Kutsushita nyanko Mainichi minkashiawase). There were a lot of katakana characters, so i bought it in hoping it would help me in learning. (-ω-人) The cat's a Sanrio character, right? :)

Singapore Flyer ♡ シンガポールフライヤー

2011-08-15T16:00:00.004+08:00

13 August
I went to the Singapore Flyer that day. Yes, i have never took it before. ＿|￣|○ I went with Gretchen and Yuanteng together!

The trip that day was seriously amazing, i got to experience both the sun and moon in the cabin. (⌒∇⌒)
It was sun on the west while moon on the east. The whole sunset scene was beyong incredible.
Also, a couple booked a cabin to themselves and everyone were so kaypoh! Haha, when the couple kissed everyone was like, "woo woo!" and after they kissed the girl started shuffling. HAHAHA. Weird i know.
The sad part was it's very short. When you look at the flyer from the outside, you'll say it's slow. But when you see from the inside, it's fast! It's a 30 minutes ride and i took only 40+ photos. (┬┬＿┬┬) Great experience though. I have this phobia of heights but when i went in i wasn't scared at all. :))Rest of the photos are up on facebook.

I'm having biology and english paper 2 tomorrow.
Aww, such a good weather to procrastinate!

2011-08-11T17:37:00.005+08:00

Today's the second day of prelims. I took 3 papers :L
Math P2, Social Studies and English P1. Never had so much papers in a day before.
However, i prayed before every paper and felt good. I think i can secure a pass (。・・。)イエィ♪
I'm having Chinese P1 tomorrow, and i think it's stupid :S. Took my chinese o's and i still have to take it for prelims.☆(ﾟoﾟ(○=(｀ε´○ Rumor has it that we'll be receiving our chinese o's results tomorrow morning..i feel anxious yet i'm dying to know what i got.
Well, gotta watch the news tonight. Aahh, wish me luck! o(｡･д･｡)o

Hehehe, i have a favorite tumblr to share.

It's called Cats In Japan 日本の猫 d(=^･ω･^=)b

猫が大好き！I'm a cat lover ♡
Any cat lovers out there? にゃんにゃんにゃん！

大丈夫ですか？

2011-08-10T11:56:00.003+08:00

大丈夫だよ。大丈夫だよ。大丈夫だよ。
いいよ。いいよ。いいよ。
Every time someone asks me whether if i'm fine or how am i do doing these days i'd just answer, "i'm fine." "i'm doing well."The fact is, i'm struggling but i'm still standing. I wish to tell people how i'm really feeling but i'm afraid people might think i complain a lot.Second day of prelims tomorrow: social studies, english, math. This is madness.

"Dreams are like stars, they seem so far away, yet never too far to reach."

Recently, i bought an elementary-japanese learning book from きのくにや Kinokuniya.I've been looking for japanese children's story books but to no avail. (｡´Д⊂)うぅ･･･ Does anyone know any shops that sell them?

I enjoyed this year's National Day Celebrations in school! It was the best among the 5 years. v(*'-^*)ｂぶいっ♪ This year is also the only year that i wore red. HAHA. One of the teachers said that it seems only the sec4/5s are enjoying themselves for NDC. Somehow, i agree with this (￣▽￣;) Annually, the graduating classes participate in inter-class competitions. Guess what, the 5Ns were the champions for Captainball and Basketball! As for Soccer, we got third. (´・　　　ω　　　・`) Everyone were saying that the 5Ns will be recognised now.（★＞ u ＜★）

This year's National Day Parade was awesome too!! I think the last time i went for NDP was..when i was 14? :s Hope to go for it again! Not going for this year's was somehow a pity :L

I ❤ Boyfriend

2011-08-07T12:56:00.004+08:00

This is my boyfriend:

↓

Lol were you cheated. ・▽・
YESSS, i'm finally gonna own a dSLR! This is a Nikon D80. My church leader aka my friend is going to sell me this. She allows me to use it till i got the amount to pay. (Don't try asking me about the price.)
Oh yeah, I haven't even processed the rolls of films (I have like 4 to process) with the SLR i've used. TAT

In the past i never really liked about Nikon, i don't know why. :L But i was told that Nikon brings out good colour compositions and its build is better than Canon (Canon's body cameras are made of plastic). I've so much to learn with this camera..
Benjamin told me to call it my husband (LOL ^0^;) but it's gonna be my boyfriend for now. HAHA.

Although my dream camera is the Canon EOS 60D, it's a golden opportunity so i got this first. But that doesn't mean it stops here.
I'll do whatever it takes to reach my dreams.

Someday, i'll be able to reach contrails.

...

Created this drawing a few weeks ago. I drew this in trying to depict how am i feeling recently.

This was inspired by an illustration:

Illustration(drawr) by Sね

When i saw this illustration i didn't thought of drawing out my emotions; i just wanted to draw it. Neither did i realise as i drew, feelings of tiredness, stress, confusion flowed inevitably.
You can see how tired i feel (yes, present tense) through the eyes itself.
I'm trying to draw a perspective background about how i feel in the environment around me; but i'm still searching for inspirations ;_;
The drawing doesn't look like me but it is like me on the inside. Can you feel it?

★。、:*:。.:*:・'゜☆。.:*:・'゜★。、:*:。.:*:・'゜☆。.:*:・'゜★。、:*:。.:*:・'゜★

Anyways, i'm having a cold (since yesterday). Must be the weather because it rained shower today.
In case you don't know, i ate 4 oranges last night for vitamin C HAHA.
And then this morning i had sore throat. (ノдヽ) But it's gone now!

ああ！
Deadline for D&T's portfolio and presentation board is officially due next Friday. ((((/＊0＊；)/
I've been going to my teacher's house to complete all the pages, high productivity (⌒ｏ⌒)b My teacher's super hospitable, she had her helper to cook us maggie and also provided us snacks almost every few moments. (￣▽￣)

The good thing about courseworks are that you have a question and you know the answer. Like what my D&T teacher says, compared to being in the examination room furiously completing the questions and you can only depend on yourself. In courseworks, just constantly look your teachers for answers and be productive, no procrastinations! (Okay maybe once in a while..^ ^;) You can get a distinction if you work smartly and hard. :D
However the con thing is that..you have to sacrifice lots (I mean lotssss) of time and you've got to work under pressure. During the last June holidays i went back to school for 3 weeks thanks to D&T. But at the end of day, it's all gonna be well-spent because you've worked hard for it. C:

Baibai! Gonna look for inspirations. ^3^

5 July, Tuesday - 17th birthday
Thank you Shuxian, Gretchen, Jiaxuan, Pearlyn, Stella, Huixin, Sandy, Kevin, Andrew and Shuhan for the ice cream cake!! Ｏ(≧▽≦)Ｏ
My schoolmates got me a mango ice cream cake that day and we ate it with a different way during recess. (●⌒∇⌒●) It was different because we didn't have any knifes nor plates but only spoon and fork so we ate directly from the cake. HAHA. And that was when they start putting cake on my face. (´¬`) My first time eating cake like that! I wasn't surprised about the ice cream cake, was surprised by the number of people instead. (*ﾟｰﾟ)

Thank you so much for the presents and messages! ありがとうございます~ｖ(≧∀≦)ｖ

10 July, Sunday
JAYESSLEE VISITS SINGAPORE!! ('∇'*)⌒☆
Don't tell me you don't know who's Jayesslee. They're one of the YouTube sensations! They're the most beautiful twins I've ever seen and best of all, they're Christians. ♥ If you still don't know who they are, watch this video:

I think they're 24 this year. Janice is older than Sonia and they're Korean Austrailians. Love their accent!! '3'
When they were on the stage, me and my friend automatically screamed HAHA. Yes, i love them to bits.

Top: Janice; bottom: Sonia.
They looked totally different from the YT videos i watched. They seemed to be more mature in real but still, they look the same~
How could you not love them~~(=￣▽￣=)

And oh! I finally bought myself a pair of Vans!!

I wanted to get a purple one actually (of course) however they didn't have my size. My friends said i looked good in this one so yup :) I haven't got the chance to wear them yet though. (＿Δ＿)

Today
Didn't went to school today due to my stomach flu (since Monday). I went to a second doctor today and turns out that the previous doctor prescribed me a wrong medicine..(°.....°;) Or maybe it's the receptionist's fault.
After today's trip i'm a lot better now. Yesterday was like hell. I had gastric pains, intestinal pains and fever. I don't even know whether to eat or not. Diarrhoea..( ´⊿｀) ugh.
I had my Chinese orals for O's yesterday. It was difficult as I got the second last day. ｡+ﾟ(ﾟつ皿`ﾟ)ﾟ+｡ The examiners prompted me a lot...the moment they did that i knew i was dead. There's this trend that they'd put the first 2 and last 2 days the hardest as the last 2 days are mostly higher mother tongue students. (That's what my teacher says) I cried really badly afterwards..because i wanted to score a merit for it. :S But in the end, i feel that i'm stupid for crying over such things because i don't even know the results yet. (´・-・。) No point crying over spilt milk, right?

I'm having my Chinese listening next on 19 July. And then i'll receive the results on 11 August i think.
Oh yeah! I submitted my DPA (direct poly admission) write-up online too. It waskind of last-minute but thank God for my brother who helped me in editing. I re-submitted about 5 times -o- because i was really anxious (;･∀･)
Hoping hard that i'll get shortlisted ( ・ｗ・)

Bye!! あばよ！！(⌒ー⌒)ﾉ~~~

明日は。。。Tomorrow is...

2011-07-04T20:20:00.001+08:00

明日は私の誕生日です！
でも、私は本当に興奮していない。
どうして？
えっと、わからないね～( ´¬`)

Tomorrow is my birthday! (｡･･｡)
But, i'm not really excited as before. Don't know why either.. 17 feels and sounds like some matured age, don't you agree? I don't feel like 17..although i look like one. Or maybe some of you think i look older

Ever since young, i've always wanted an ice cream cake for my birthday. I only tried it once, i think i was 11 then. I was so crazy with it that i ate 3 servings..and i'm not greedy!! （|||￣▽￣） Lol. I remembered playing the dry ice and they hurt my fingers. I never had ice cream cakes since then~

Not only birthday meant one's special day, they can also "check" sincerities of friendship too. How many of your friends would go all the way just to get you your favorite stuff? How many are willing to chip in their money no matter how expensive the present is?
All these little things, will turn big when you look back.

What i want for my birthday is..

A huge box filled with rolls, and rolls, and rolls of films.
TEEHEE

Loljk all i want is my eyecandy to wish me. HAHAHAHA i just said that
But honestly (this time it's really honest) i just want everyone to enjoy my day with me.
(≧∀≦)乂(≧∀≦)

I know where i stand now.

ハロー　こんにちは　久しぶり
Hello, konnichiwa, hisashiburi. (；　；)／★★
I've finally found time to blog and have something to blog about! Just 4 more months to go, and i'll be free.

24 June 2011, Friday。・゜★
Cell group as usual with E474! Before that, i met one of my cell group members for studying. I know that i can't study with people; but apparently i can only study with them. :/ I guess because they're older than me? ( ´¬`)

And oh! My social studies teacher gave us homework like real freeflow kind. Got 3 prelim papers and 17 SEQs. But amazingly, i managed to complete the SEQs in 4 days! (ﾉﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾉ Hoho. Honestly it was suprising; because i completed 5 SEQs on first day, 5 on second, 2 on third, and the rest last. Really, have to thank God for this. ♥

Pssst. Dukin Donuts' green tea latte is delicious! ~~旦(-^ )

25 June 2011, Saturday。・゜★
Went to Merlion Park for CIP with Veron.
If you guy don't know, my cca is band. I used to play the clarinet but i was really lousy. (_ _,)/ So i'm in this duty of making band exchange cards; etc.
That day, my school band played at Merlion Park for "Band by the Bay" something like that. They played songs like Bad Romance, Nobody and Ponyo. Attracted quite some people because of the popular songs C:.

While the band is playing, Veron and i went to Starbucks! Bought green tea cream as usual. ヒヒヒヒヒ～(￣▽￣) I have finally learned not to ask them to put the cream anymore..because when you drink till the end it becomes really sweet and too creamy :S. No matter how i told them about less cream they'll still give me the same amount hahahah.

28 June 2011, Tuesday。・゜★

Heh. Finally traced and colored my schedule book. I used pink to match the quote. I did this during my english lesson to stop myself from falling asleep (T▽T) I tried to duplicate a font but failed..do you know what font is that? ^ ^
The lines looked too thin from here..guess i have to edit it again! :S

And ugh, O levels CHINESE oral on 13 July..furthermore, i'm the second candidate. （●´･△･｀）はぁ〜 It happened exactly during N levels chinese oral last year too..
I hope i'm not second for english. ＿|￣|○

Till then...さよなら! ･△･)ﾉﾊﾞｲﾊﾞｲ
6-7 days left to ★. hehe

2011-05-12T18:58:00.000+08:00

When i realised Blogger was under maintenance just now i was like

because i wanted to blog.

Hahaha, this entry is just to show you my SLR camera i bought last month:

This one's a secondhand camera hence you'll see all the dust (ugh) on the camera. But don't worry it's all gone now, lol.
The reason why i bought a secondhand one is because i didn't dared to take any risk about SLRs. :s

The moment i saw the camera i was all,

because it gave me the kind of vintage feel thing.
The total cost was pretty cheap because it came with a large camera bag, the flash, manual and lens.
It wasn't even kit lens. So yeah, a great catch. :D

But i want kit lens now. lmao

I'm lucky that this SLR is auto (winds the films automatically) and uses EF lenses 'cos if i ever buy a dSLR in the future i can use the lens on it. ^ ^
But i dislike the model number 888 :(. I just don't know why.
Like very chinese-y, y'know.
I can't even..-o-

I done on my 2 rolls, but i've only processed the first one.
Can't wait to see how the photos will look like~~8D

△▲△▲△▲△▲△▲△▲ △▲△▲△▲△▲△▲△▲

Something off the subject:
I've recently made a penpal from Japan! *幸せ* v(^ｰ^)v
She lives in the Chiba Prefecture which is slightly near to Tokyo.

This is the first letter i received from her:

Such cute stamps! I doubt Singapore sells such kinds of stamps huh TTwTT
It costed her about S$2.50 just to send me a letter :s while it's S$1.10 for me.
It took about a week for the letter to arrive~

Okay i shall end this abruptly with

EMO-HAIRED JONGHUN. (*♥▽♥*)

It's International Friendship Day this week, i hope some Japanese people would come to my school man!! HAHA.

Okay bai. :3

Sports Day ● スポーツの日

2011-03-11T23:35:00.001+08:00

Nyan nyan~:3

Today's the last day of Term 1, hence my school decided to organise Olympics@ESSS (aka sports day lol). We went home as early as 10:25am and had to reach Bedok Stadium before 2pm. But my clique and i met at 11:15am because we decided to have lunch with some teacher interns ^ ^. It's their last day at our school and we love them a lot, so yup.
They even made brownies and butter cookies for us! I was really surprised since no teacher had gone through the lengths of baking snacks for me. (*ﾟ▽ﾟ)
Anyways, we ate at Pastamania (I had mushroom baked rice) for lunch. I ordered peach soda too! I've only tried peach and strawberry, but i guess peach's the best flavor. (;･∀･)

The sports meet this year was slightly more dull than last year's. Even though it finally didn't rain this year, (It used to rain every year -w-) the atmosphere is just so..different. Well i dunno. (´-ω-｀;)
I'm under black house, and we've got red, blue, green and yellow houses. My house got the Spirt of the Games and Best Cheerleading award 8D. I was quite taken aback by that because we weren't really co-operating well with the cheerleaders in cheering haah. We weren't so high that time. (*￣ー￣*)

I rike frace painting

Lol hmm, the whole Sports Day event was pretty much okay i guess. v(｡･･｡) My clique and i took a cab home cause we were super duper tired. Especially me, i only had 3 hours of sleep! The reason being is simply because i last-minute did my artpiece for this competition. I did it from around 11+pm to 3am. ｡･ﾟﾟ･（´_ゝ｀）･ﾟﾟ･｡ Fortunately i was able to tahan with only 3hours.
I hope i could get a certificate from that competition! -prays hard-

雲のむこう、約束の場所 ● The Place Promised In Our Early Days

"This sci-fi story centers around three teenagers, a rip in the space-time continuum, and the perseverance to keep a promise against all odds. The film captures slice-of-life beauty between three friends, while epic events threaten to drive them apart."

This is a short 2D film that i'm currently watching. I really like how Makoto Shinkai creates his films/animes. He makes every thing, no matter how small or big it is, very distinct and detailed. Especially the background. If you're interested to watch, you can watch it here. :D

Awight, i'd better get some sleep now! Good night. Sayonara mina-san~ばいばい(⌒ー⌒)ﾉ~~~

A cup of matcha tea, please.

2011-02-20T13:32:00.001+08:00

Hellohello! こんにちはぁぁぁぁ~♪(｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ
I headed out at 12pm to City Hall to meet my church friends for joint cell group yesterday. I dressed quite differently from the usual days:

I love my stockings a lot! I couldn't find any shops selling it so i decided to get them online. ^ ^
The cell group was really long (about 3 hours) as there was also a prayer meeting. The other cell group was super interesting and high, because all of them are youths and my age was like the oldest. I was pretty surprised when i knew it. Σ(=ﾟωﾟ=;) In my cell group, my age was the youngest. Lol looks like i joined the wrong cell group hahahah. (;･∀･)

Anyway, i really like praising and worshipping with them! They sang louder than the guitar. It was really awesome. (*⌒∇⌒*)b My cell group leader prayed for me and i cried like mad. Like overflowing tap. (￣､￣;) It was so overwhelming i couldn't control it.

After the cell group my friends and i headed to Starbucks ★ to revise and complete our homework. I completed only one chinese homework which is 实用文, ahah. Frankly speaking, i have never drank from Starbucks before. (￣ω￣〃) Because i don't really like the taste of coffee, so yeah. But i ordered this Green Tea Cream and i fell in love then moment i drank it. (ﾟ∀ﾟ)♥♥ It's matcha tea, that's why~~

Starbucks @ Valley Point, Orchard.

Lol i have this habit of placing a tissue paper below my cold drink because i don't like to get my papers/stuff wet. (-з-) Starbucks' drinks may be costly but enjoying them once in while is fine. Heh (￣ー￣)
And guess what, i was the one who wrote that phrase. Hahaha are you surprised? :b I was extremely tempted to do that the moment i sat down. I hope the staffs aren't cursing me or something HAHAH, i just want to cheer random girls up. (･∀･) If you ever gonna visit that Starbucks' outlet, spot for it okay? ひひひひ~
(And yes, i know my handwriting looks sorta ugly because i wrote quickly.)

And oh, i took my friend's empty coffee cup home. I thought of like deocrating the cup hehe. Of course, i did some cleaning. But i have no inspirations yet. (・・*)。。oＯ But i'll definitely show you guys once i have done it~＾０＾ Package design much.

I don't know when i'll post again.
Byebye! （〃⌒ー⌒〃）ﾉ゛゛゛゛ﾊﾞｲﾊﾞｲ♪

School record challenge!

2011-02-19T00:33:00.000+08:00

During my school's Success For Living programme yesterday, we were doing our school record challenge to commemorate Total Defence Day. I think this is my school's second time making a record into the Singapore Book of Records! ヽ(ﾟ▽ﾟ*)乂(*ﾟ▽ﾟ)ﾉﾊﾞﾝｻﾞｰｲ♪
Anyway, before we started doing the challenge, every class had to head out to the flats near the school and kinda like, give house-to-house visits. We were also instructed to hand out flyers to tell the residents of what we're doing and stuff. We also climbed 10 flights of stairs for "healthy lifestyle". (Not tiring at all! 8D) That's what the school said lol. ヾ(＿＿)ﾉ But my group was quite slackish because we're doing our duties on ground floor so we did't really do anything. (// ▽ //)

When we came back to school, the selected students headed to parade square to create the largest Singapore map using recycled clothes!（*＾ワ＾*) ばんざい~~ The clothes were accumulated within about a week. Nah, i didn't bring any of mine at all, ecause they were all given away already - w -. I really take my hat off to those students who made the map, because they're braving under the ~~burning~~ sun. Kudos to you guys!

If the colors were mixed well, i think it would look better, don't you think? My class is located at 4th floor so we could see the whole map better. ;D The unfortunate part is, my camera was out of battery after a few photos only (´^｀). When they were done making the map i used my phone to capture it. At least, the "risk" was worth it. (∀￣；)
We also sang the national anthem. Lol, for the first time everyone sang it loudly. Like really loud. (☆ ω ☆) Oh yeah! Remember the art competition i joined? Turns out there were only 5 contestants (including me). But i handed up the drawing anyway. I didn't take a picture because it was not my standard. (ノ I `。) I suppose they're not going to show the results of the competition anymore. Oh well~~

∪*ゝω･人ゝω･*∪

Doubts.

2011-02-14T22:19:00.001+08:00

Believe in yourself.

HELLO. I think everyone thinks i'm dead already. D8
WHAT D'YOU THINK OF MY NEW LAYOUT. 8D IZZIT OKAY HUH HUH HUH LOL
don't chiu ever, ever touch my background.

I guess i'm really dead now. Here's a ~~super~~ short update on what i've been doing:
1, Catching up with the DnT coursework. And i'm not doing good.
2, Hay-wired sleeping times.
stress/school/olevels
stress/school/olevels

My classmates today volunteered me to participate in the school's art competition. At least i was real excited, but then after awhile i feel less confident, because i haven't been participating in any competitions like that for.. quite a few years. :( Anyway, the competition is for Total Defence and the theme's home. Ugh. I did have a rough idea of what to draw but . . . .~~dekinai~~

Andand, i feel like giving DPA a try. DPA = going for a full-time job interview
I managed to keep under 600 today. 500 tomorrow.

Got another holga!

2011-01-02T19:46:00.000+08:00

I bought another holga!!

Lol jk i want a DSLR kit. I just made that today; took me about 1-2hours. I used adhesive felt so it's able to stick on my bag without me having to sew it. That's my new school bag by the way.
The felt holga is made with reference of this:

Hmm, not bad right? :b Hahaha. I'm not into details for it (because felts are hard to cut in this case). I wanted to make a purple one but too bad i don't have purple felts. D: So i chose to make a Holga CMY one, because it's my second favorite. ^ ^

Holga is a plastic toy camera that uses films. It is not digital. My holga model is 120 GCFN, which "120" means it specialises in using 120mm films (but i can still use other films smaller than 120mm), has color flash and the lens are made of glass. There's the plastic lens version of holgas too, but i bought the glass one because i want sharper pictures. Plastic lenses come out dreamier pictures.
If you still have questions on holgas, you can always formspring me on the left. ;D

Picnic. ピクニック。

2011-01-01T15:53:00.001+08:00

☆あけましておめでとうございます!!☆

Before i start on this post i want to say..HAPPY NEW YEAR!! /throws popcorns instead of flowers because they're yummy/ Okay i know i'm supposed to blog about this one yesterday but i didn't because i'm too happy to blog, haha! :b Too happy that y'know, i can bearly sleep last night. ^▽^~♪ I wonder if you're like this too.

Right. Back to topic.
I made 6 rice balls/onigiri おにぎり for the picnic that day. My agaration was lousy, i cooked like 3.5cups of japanese rice that day. (_　_|||) I wrapped it with those patterned wrapping papers and touched up with some purple ribbons. Hohoho. v(｡･ω･｡)ｨｪｨ♪
They looked like this:

Initially before wrapping in the wrapping paper, i actually shaped them as triangles (▲s rule) and then after wrapping, it turns into.. circle. （￣ー￣；asdfghjkl Which means, i shapped for nothing lolol. K whatev. Most importantly, is the ingredients. For the rice, i mixed agedama (Don't know what's that in english, sorry. But it's some fried stuff with flour) and furikake. For fillings, i put ham and egg.
（ﾟ∀）つ　(■) (■) (■) (■) (■)
I've never expected it would turn out delicious, seriously. I thought it might be mediocre or statisfactory. Seemed that Miko really liked them a lot, ヽ(^▽^ゞ) But for me, eating too much of them makes me sick @-@. Because i get tired of eating same foods most of the time. (´〜｀;) Can't help it~

I met Miko first before meeting everybody at the City Hall platform. The whole scene was really funny..me and her was supposed to meet each other inside the front part of the train, but i was right at the end instead. (;･∀･) But anyway we still managed to catch the train together because we moved to another station. Lol.
Upon reaching City Hall, we looked for Amelia, Sophia and Lisa around but to no avail. Actually we saw 3 girls who all had long hair, so we thought it's them. Lolol, we thought of scaring them from the back but luckily we didn't. Because it wasn't them LOL ＿|￣|○ Thank goodness~

Focus fail ＿|￣|○
Miko made cutesy cut-out mini sandwiches while Lisa and Sophia made sushi together. So delicious~~＾ｏ＾ We even had fun playing it. :b
Oh yeah, Miko booked for us tickets to watch Gulliver's Travels too. We were late about 10mins for the movie..but still, we enjoyed the show. ヽ(･∀･)ﾉ "BUSHHH" :b
Rest of the photos are at facebook. (:

What a fun way to end 2o1o.

*smiles a thousand times*

Christmas eve.

2010-12-24T22:29:00.003+08:00

It's finally Christmas Eve! Yay,【★メリークリスマスーイブ★】！^ ^ ♫
Actually, i don't have any excitement about Christmas this year. Well it happens every year. When i was young i never really received nor exchanged christmas pressies, and to cheer myself up, i would wrap up my own stuff and open it on christmas. (´^｀) I don't know if i should say if i'm childhood-deprived or what. Does anyone of you do this or am i the only one? I hope not. And yes, i have a life. ( -ｪ-)

When i was young, i always envy those ang moh kids and families able to spend time together under the warm, loving fire while it's snowing so prettily outside. ☃ Kids fighting who's going to put up the largest star on the christmas tree, unable to sleep on christmas eve night because they knew santa claus existed. Having snowball fights and building snowmen with carrots as their noses; all sounded like a dream.
I had always wished for Singapore to snow, to have all the 4 different seasons. But now that i have learned geography i stopped wishing for that because if Singapore ever snowed that would meant trouble. (´･ω･`;)

Candlelight church service last week.
Somehow, i celebrated today by heading to my friend's house and make onigiri again. Haha, i found a new receipe so i decided to try it today. I forgot to buy one of the ingredients (*ﾉω<*) but thank goodness my friend had some furikake ふりかけ at home, so it wasn't plain. ^ ^ ★ Finally found what's missing in my onigiri too, it's KIKKOMAN キッコーマン! Well, it's japanese soy sauce. HAHA. To give the rice a taste. ;)

Thank you Isabel for this pixel! ^ ^
I'm planning to use that receipe for bloggers' meet-up! I really really can't wait for that day.

Miracles DO happen.

How many times have you looked up the sky and felt hopeful?

A few days ago i just did. Well actually, quite a few times.
But i didn't get the hint. On December 17, i finally did. That was the day i received my N level results.

11 points. 4 distinctions. ☀
Best achievement for school so far. That day was like a dream. I think if you know me, you wouldn't believe that this is my result. I only hoped that i can just promote to secondary 5 but God blessed me more. C: He made me realise that as long as you put in your best, you will definitely get the best. But never be overconfident.
After getting the results, i realised i definitely exceeded my potential. You know why it was a dream? I had stomach flu during my chemistry paper and felt drowsy during my geography paper (i think i ate the wrong medicine or something.). And during my english paper, i wrote the signing-off format wrongly. HAHA. And there's still somemore flaws which i can't remember already. I know you're interested, but too bad. :b

I thank God from the bottom of my heart. I really, really believe in miracles now. Some people out there, i want to tell you that i'm neither stupid nor useless. I've done proving yourselve(s) wrong. C: My next goal, o level.

On the other hand, i can't wait for the bloggers meet-up! Gonna meet many awesome people~ Hope i can manage to take many, many photos. It'll be lots of fun i guess. C: ☀
I have work tomorrow, i hope it won't too busy like last time, :/

And thank you Helena for this christmas graphic! ♥

My favorite video of JaeJin and HongKi. C:
And of course, that's not a real polariod. It was found inside the Beautiful Journey album. :D
I'll post my N level results tomorrow. Tata.

Working experience.

2010-12-16T14:27:00.000+08:00

I highlighted my hair INDIGO!!

f/2.8 1/15

こんにちは Konnichiwa
I am very tired yet i can't sleep due to the construction noise. ねむけ~ Sleepy~ So i guess i decided to blog. This year is very different, since i've reached the age i can work and stuff. Initally my friend and i applied for a job at a small japanese fastfood restaurant, but they somehow turned us off because of their.. cold attitude. 冷冷的~ They just stared at us. We took the job application form and left. Without coming back. But anyway i was told most workers are like that later. -3-

And the second one was at Popular, which is what i'm currently working now. C: My manager hired only me and not my friend D: And i don't even know why. So yeah, i've been posted as a retail assistant (something like salesgirl, or maybe even same?) under the text/assessment department. Lol, don't bother asking me which outlet i am working at. If you know, then thanks for keeping it. ^ ^ ☀

Indigo C: ♥ (My face color's like that due to flash)

Overall working experience in the first month was good. I made quite some new friends. I vivdly remembered two young girls and an auntie calling me AUNTIE. Young girls, nevermind. But an aunite calling a 16-year-old an auntie..can i say call this ironic? Lol i think this is the most common thing most retail assistants have occured before, right?

I remembered i was late for my interview. First interview. And then i was also late on my first day. HAHA, fortunately my manager was off that day. Everything was awkward then and but day by day, i got used to it. Working under text department was definitely not an easy job. Whenever someone asks me what do i do there, i can't explain it. It's something you have to experience it yourself. But smiling customers and humorous colleagues make my day. (●⌒∇⌒●)

After working, i learned that money isn't easy to earn. I work from opening till closing (full shift) and i only earn around $50+/day. Plus it's tiring, moving stocks around, here and there..(;-_-) =3 Yup. I can't keep complain anyway, that's that average pay for part-timers.

Guess what, i nearly got fired from manager too. She's strict and she said i'm slow, with no improvements made at all. After what she said i then realised Popular's for fast-paced people, not me. But my supervisor's really nice, she gave me a chance to improve myself. (´ ▽｀) I feel my manager's abit wrong, she should tell me about my performance earlier instead of firing me straight. Rightrightright? (･д･)

Many people adviced me to quit anyway, even i wanted too. But then again i thought, since my supervisor gave me a chance to change myself, why don't i try it? I might even prove my manager wrong too. So i am still right here, though not working as much as last month. What can i say? Adult world's pretty fast for me, still. It's full of critisms, competitions and comparisions. But that's just life, right? Alittle sharpening will make you tougher and more experienced.

Guess after this month i will not work at Popular anymore. Not that it's not good or what, it just does not suit me. ^ ^ I'll definitely miss my colleagues, very fun to be with. 8D
さようなら~ﾊﾞｲﾊﾞｲ~ Byebye!ヾ(*^▽^*)o

I went home.

2010-12-12T22:05:00.001+08:00

I went home on 6 november.
(Why do i look so red?) Okay, it's not really my home. I just went to Pontian, JB to visit my relatives for 6 days. I missed there tons, millions and thousands of tons. Probably because i had not been there for about 1.5 years. Or maybe i've lived in the city too much, i started to miss the country life.

I'm a Singaporean. 100% Born and bred in Singapore. But i guess i'm still considered a half-Malaysian since all of my family members are Malaysians, but ever since then they are PRs. I find myself awesome because i'm the only "pure" Singaporean in my family. Haha! If you get what i mean.

Gelang Patah, 振林山

[Back to topic] Every time i hear motorcyles in Singapore zoom pass by, they always remind me about Malaysia. I don't know why. I really love Pontian (it's a town in the state of JB), the surroundings, the houses and shophouses, people and spirit. They have more trees than in Singapore. Okay that's because there's more land in MY. Lol duh. When i was in the Causeway Link bus on the way to Pekan Nanas (where most of my relatives lived), the skies were very scenic. I can't help but to capture them!

The first one was focused wrongly, my phone focused on the dirty bus window. :b But i like how it turned out anyway. And oh, i like phone lines too. Something which, you definitely can't see in Singapore, because they're all deeply rooted to the grounds. Phone lines add a certain feel to sceneries which i can't comprehend. Or maybe a nostalgic feel. There, i comprehended it. :D Malaysia's skies are more attractive than Singapore's (Well, that's to me.) because SG's full of skyscrapers and HDB flats. Okay, i should really stop comparing. And oh yeah, all the photos i uploaded have never been retouched. ^ ^

Look how phone lines make sceneries become so nostalgic!!
I bought my holga and digital camera along too. But i think i can throw away my digital camera already, because my phone's camera quality is way better than it. HAHA, and it's not even a cybershot phone. It's my first time bringing out holga for so long and i have used it most of the time. This time, i used 35mm film instead of 120mm. Actually i'm using 120mm, but someone tempered my holga. (;A;) The unfortunate part is P. Nanas don't sell 120mm. I can one like in 5mins in Singapore LOL.
So i just bought a roll of 35mm films. Initally i was scared putting the roll in, as it needed modifications like, adding sponge and stuff. TIP: if you're buying a 120 Holga, always use 35mm. And be slightly cautious with it too. Of course you can use 120mm, but processing them costs a bomb.

Honestly, i brought the digital camera for nothing. I didn't take a single photo with it. Everything here was taken with my phone. I was taken aback by the quality :O
Anyway, the first two nights i slept at my cousin's. Totally awesome, without my mother at all. Haha! (Only my mother and i went.) During the first night i had instant vermicelli, morning fried vermicelli and afternoon vermicelli with soup. LOL vermicelli in a day. @-@ My spectacles got stepped on too, LOLOL. But it's all fixed and my mother has yet to know it. :b Then on the second night, we cousins watched an old horror movie titled Child's Play. If you remembered Chucky, you will know. It's gore and thrilling, but not really scary since it's old. This is my first time watching a movie and not getting paranoid! ^ ^v

"When mosquitoes are near, have no fear; Mopiko is here!" - mememe. :D
I got like 10+ bites when i resided at my grandma's. Right now while i'm typing (and maybe you still reading this), it's still itchyyyy. I need Mopiko all day long. The mosquitoes only bite me. Not my mum. At all. -3- I wear both my cardigans and PJs there, as the weather is cooler here. I'm too used to SG's burning weather that when i was at MY, my sensitive nose worked up and i kept sneezing, hahaha.

On wednesday night (8 November, i think), there was this "yiu shen" festival in P. Nanas where all the chinese societies, temples and some schools collaborated together. It was full of people and there were some pretty floats (Small floats. Remember chingay?) and cars lighted with colorful flowers and lights. It was only held annually so i guess i was lucky. :) During that time, i can sense the unity within the people. They even gave us candies too~~ Photos? They're all taken with holga so you have to wait. I have yet to use the film completely btw. :b

I cut my hair too. I regretted asking my cousin (he's a hairsylist) to cut my fringe above my eyes! ;_; It's here if you're wondering how i looked. And that's not my room. :D I miss my really long fringe~~ I want emo fringe. HAHAH ☺☺☺ Speaking of that, i like guys with emo hair. LOL, i don't know why. Cute what, like this and this HAHA. He's Alex Evans, an awesome photographer. Okay, i think i have to stop spazzing about that. =3= lol.
At grandma's it's kinda boring, because there's no internet at all. A city girl like me definitely can't live without the internet. For 4 days. The good thing is that, itouch is here. My grandma's house is really, really old. Maybe the oldest among the streets. The new house is still under construction and it should be ready in Feb 2011 ^ ^ Can't wait to go back there again. I hope the new house's almost mosquito free, hahaha! -crosses fingers-

You can kind of know how "broken down" the house was by looking at this photo.
So yeah, i guess this kinda sums up the 6 days there. Time passes tremendously fast if you look back. Hope i can go to MY again during CNY! If you're still curious of anything, feel free to go ahead and formspring, tweet or facebook me. For the first time, i blogged in 2 hours. :D

Ps. The first thing i bought in MY was gum! :b

Fu-rench nails

2010-11-28T17:24:00.000+08:00

Last week, my friend and i went to visit a classmate's workplace (Etude House) and i bought this tube of white french nails. The pastel blue one was apparently free because my friend bought 2 tubes and got 1 free, so she gave me this (・∀・). I've yet to use the blue one, but i've tried the Mini French already!

Here's the results:
(uhm it's my first time fyi)

I know my middle finger was a fail ＿|￣|○. I didn't really take my nails very obviously because they weren't done very well. (First timer mah. excuses) I used those clear-type tapes and just stick over the nail line and, paint. Tadah. Lol. I remembered there's another technique where you have to use brushes to like, "swipe" against the nail line. It's pretty difficult because one of your hands are weaker (Left-handedness and right-handedness)
Recommended french nail tutorial: youtube (:

I was like, trying to take a photo of my nails like this:

Okay these nails are uber chio even though i dislike pink. Do they even sell these here?
I love french nails a lot. Really, really a lot. I don't know why, but they look so elegant and attractive to me (★∀★). I don't really paint my nails, but if i do i would only paint the white part or if both, i would use pastel/nude colors. (｡･･｡)

This is really creative using the french nail techinque:

Creative right? Oh yeah, nail art pens are sold at Etude House too. So far, i've only see white and black ones. I forgot the price of the pen, opps. :x
Actually, i hate the way how my nails are shaped like. Squarish and short and ugly. 。：゜(；´∩｀；)゜：。No space to decorate lol

My nails are like this when i trim them for school. :( I remembered getting caught for long nails once, hahaha. (;･∀･) I feel weird when my nails are uber short! Like, as if i'm missing out of something. So jealous of people with long pretty natural nails!
Anyways, it's useless for me to do my nails already. Because i'm working at a bookstore and the white parts are already like, 50% gone. Maybe, i should try like, french nail-ing my toenails hahaha.

Hai, i'm still alive.

2010-11-15T20:28:00.001+08:00

ねぇ　ねぇ~~ Hey hey~~
Has it been a month since i last blogged? ＿|￣|○
I have top 3 invalid excuses why i didn't blog or reply your formspring questions.
1, I am lazy; i procrastinate.
2, I am working.
3, I am sick.
... ...(_　_|||)
Anyways..~ today i'm gonna blog about stuffs i have that are rotting in my room for ages.

I don't remember when i got this, but i think it was during my primary 5 or 6 years. I got ~~attracted~~ by its cuteness lol. (ﾟ ▽ ﾟ;) The material's very soft and furry kind, nice to touch. (･ω･) I'm using it to keep extra ball/ink pens. But it's pink..

This case was given by my aunt. Actually i can't really find any use to this case, but i found my paintbrushes~ And lmao they seemed as if i don't wash them after every use. (;ﾟ□ﾟ) Paintbrushes aren't cheap though (´∩｀。).

Purple 万岁万岁万万岁! ゝ(▽｀*ゝ)(ﾉ*´▽)ﾉ Lolol, i guess this one's pretty much obvious, it's for colored pencils. For colored pencils, i would never go for any brands other than Faber Castell or Lyra. Especially Faber Castell, they never break and last really long. The best~ 一番です! d(･∀･)b I think this picture's colored pencils have been with me for like, 5-6 years already? Because i rarely color, i shade. hehehe

PENSILSS! Yes, they were typed the wrong way. I wuv♥ pencils that is sharpened more than the lead ones. I didn't use any of them (・・〃) because most of the designs are cute and unique. I stopped collecting them long time ago though.

It's my very first Artbox pencil box. (⌒ｏ⌒) I wrapped it up because i was afraid it would get dirty and all. Too cute to get dirty lmao (v￣ω￣) It used to be my pencil box for school but later i realised it's too small for my "enormous" amount of stationery. So it became a space for my Stabilo pens. :]

This one's from Artbox too, used to be my pencil box also. I didn't wrap this up 'cause the outer material's made of like-cotton but i didn't bother to clean it anyway. (￣Д￣) The pens are like those Stabilo ones, not much of any difference. Bought them in school.

Hrrrmmm..this one's bought at More Than Words. Can you spot Jonghun? Hohoho. (o≧▽ﾟ)o All these re my felt-tip pens, markers and stampers. I use them the most often of all materials. D'you use markers to color instead of those colored pencils? ( ・◇・)?

TOP: big plastic box filling all sorts of shiny, gel pens which i use rarely. I even forget about its existence sometimes lol. Some of them don't even have ink, well i'm just too lazy to clear them. (;´▽｀)
BOTTOM: Math construction set got from some japanese shop. Once again, bought it because it attracted me (∀￣；) AND also almost all of my contruction rulers are missing~ Costed me like 2 bucks lol. If there was a compass it would be a lot better. (￣ｰ￣)

And finally ･･････ the current pensil case i'm using for school. Bought this last year, still using it cause like i said, i have many stationeries and Myuk's the best brand for it. Chose this design because it reminded me of some grungy photoshop brushes ahahah. I was a freak about photoshop last time. ヾ(@°▽°@)ノ Lol.

All right~ that's all for today. Idk when i'll blog again. ・・・(Ｔ▽Ｔ)
Ending off with this single that's been stuck in my head forever:

WonBin is so hawt with his new hairstyle *-* /hyperventilates lol jkz Love Miryo's rap! (^v^)b~~

Twino!

2010-10-13T17:35:00.000+08:00

Oh haii. -waves frantically- I didn't break my promise of not blogging today! lmao (￣▽￣;)

Went out wth PeiLing today at around 9am, as she wanted to go for a short swim. After her laps, we went to eat Chasoba (seaweed cold noodles) for lunch! I bought some soft shell crab sushi too~ (o´ω`o)ﾉ◎ It seems that i could never get bored of Chasoba-s.

Instax-looking mirror in the swimming pool's toilet. Cool~

Topman!

And after our lunch, that's when our aimless walking started. I saw some pretty floral rings, but too bad they were loose on me. 555~(´^｀)

After hanging out around central, decided to head to her house and unexpectedly gave her a mini photoshoot (･∀･). Man, i love giving photoshoots to people now. Hohoho

Who knows, i might be blogging again tomorrow. HAHA OKAYBYE
ヾ(´▽｀)ゝ"

I can kiss goodbye to you now.

2010-10-12T14:59:00.002+08:00

I can say this proudly now. You know, the moment all of our DnT theory papers were handed in, everyone were all, "woo" and irritated the ivigilator hahaha. (´･ω･`;) Overall the paper was manageable, and i hope i can ace it because theory is 30% of the whole subject..(ﾟωﾟ;)

Okay whatever. Not gonna care about what my results are now. I have about 2-3 months of freedom! Ｙ⌒Ｙ⌒Ｙ⌒Ｙ⌒Ｙ(。▽。) *jumps around*
Oh yeah! Last sunday, i went to church as usual, and i asked my cell group leader if she could lend me her Nikon D80. Yes, it's a dslr camera. (≧∀≦) I didn't really like Nikon much, i don't know why either. I think the Canon models are the best. Probably i'm just biased or something. (。・・。)

[No retouch] So yup, this is how the camera looks like. Sorry that i took only the side parts. OTL It kinda reminded me of the Canon EOS 500D though..kinda looked like doesn't it? (゜ロ゜) Those watery-watery looking things on the camera is the texture i believe.

Here's some of the nobless photos i took. I like those bokeh ones! DSLRs are amazing things, ain't they? (●･ω･)ﾉ♡ You know, i even got muscle cramps from using it lolol. Cause it's pretty heavy due to the lens. I wonder what are the lens made of. I know it's glass, but what kind of glass? (￣∇￣) DSLRs are bulky cameras, so i can't take a photo of myself hahah. But the image quality is supaaa~

Overall, i still like the Canon ahahah. Using the Nikon, i had a hard time trying to focus on the subject ( ´¬`) even though i used under auto focus.. It's a rather sensitive camera, shake a little bit, have to re-take again. (´Ａ`ゝ) Hmm, i guess it's just me, 'cause it's my first time using a Nikon. lol
For now, i guess i'll just think twice about buying myself a dslr. I used to wanna buy an entry level Canon EOS 1000D, and maybe when i work in the future i might save for it? ┐('〜`；)┌

On a side note, i'm glad to be back blogging after such a long hiatus. I can say ただいま now! (｡･ω･｡)ﾉ I left plurk for twitter in case you don't know. (If plurk and twitter were names i think this sentence sounds funny asdfghjkl;) I know my Tumblr is active because i have itouch around. Tumblr is mega ♥♡♥♡♥♡, seriously.

I hope i am able to blog again tomorrow, cause that's when my fun officially starts. :))

Because you're amazing, just the way you are.
I love this MV ttm. I know every girl want their guy to sing this to them. 8D

PS. What i said about the Nikon isn't a review. Just my opinion about it. Because i'm too nobless to do so.

Hope never leaves.
Sometimes you can’t see it or feel it. Sometimes hope seems far away. Often the difficulties you face make it seem as if hope has abandoned you. But hope never leaves. It is always there, ready for you to embrace.

Dorky.

2010-08-20T22:09:00.004+08:00

I feel like laughing the moment i see my class photos. -trying not to laugh-
Well i dunno why. If you can spot, 2 of my classmates made silly faces. (＠゜▽゜＠)
I feel that my form teacher (the male one) is like forcing himself to smile ( ´△｀) but he really smiles, it's very nice~ My form tutor is so gorgeous when she wears dresses/skirts and unties her hair. By the way, she's a national rugby player *U*
I think i stood kind of awkwardly though (＃´ー´).. I hate the photographer, he rushed everyone and that made our heights look so uneven, like mountains. (｀･∧･´)

I got this off facebook from my friend who scanned it. (:

Futatabi byoga!

2010-08-15T16:10:00.000+08:00

Drew this after i got kinda bored from revising. (￣ー￣;) Took this about 2hours and it guess it is not bad..right~ Lol. I find the eyes a little weird. Geez, i hate my proportion. asdfghjkl (｀･∧･´) I like the hairrr~~ cause it's somehow realistic-looking bahahah (≧∀≦)
I dunno if i should color or shade it though. (ﾟ〜ﾟ)ヾ

What d'you think?
That's all for now~バイバイ(｡･ω･｡)ﾉ

Lefthanders' day!

2010-08-13T22:05:00.050+08:00

Today's International Left-handers Day yaw.（*＾ワ＾*）イェイ~~
Some of you may not know that i'm a lefty, and i'm proud of being one. My brother's a lefty too, then i was wondering if it was my brother who taught me to use the left hand. So i asked my mother, but she said i just naturally took the pen with my left (ﾉ*ﾟｰﾟ)ﾉ

Left-handers have been linguistically abused for centuries~・・・（。＿。；) There are hundreds of (mainly abusive) terms for left-handers. There are a lot of sayings where "right" is good and "left" is bad e.g., "being in your right mind", "the divine right of kings", it will be all right in the end". (But saying "it will be all left in the end" sounds so weirddd.) (￣(エ)￣)ゞ
Old supersitions also said that being left-handed will make you stupid; they should be the one who's called stupid. (・−・怒) Intelligence isn't predicted on your handedness! It's based on your ability in learning.

No one has come up with a reason for why some people are left-handed, but about 13% of the population around the world are. I'm part of the 13% v(○⌒∇⌒○)ピース -arrogance-
When one's left-handed, the brain is in reverse. Which means saying, the left side of the brain controls the right side. Hand dominance is connected with brain dominance on the opposite side. (Eh..d'you get that?) (ｏ･ω･ｏ）？
If you can't understand my crap, look at this:

Lolol. So that's all for left-handers day. (Lengthy not?)
(●⌒∇⌒●)ノ~~ ｂｙｅｂｙｅ！

Typography.

2010-08-06T22:31:00.000+08:00

Suddenly i have all these fountains and fountains of inspirations to do Typography today.
It's like so, amazing. *u* Because i have not been making any of it lately.
All these peektos were taken during my school's National Day celebration today :D
You can look for more of my Typography at my facebook, under album Obsur[ed].
^^

Some people (you know who you are) have been trying to like, having the same styles as i do. So i changed my style, and don't try to be funny. It's really frustrating and depressing finding people (especially if you *know* them) copying your thoughts and stuff. （`・皿・´）おこ~~

Inspirations.

2010-07-31T12:45:00.003+08:00

Wow.
Took about 3hours to do this, but i loved the whole process of it~・▽・
Haven't had any inspirations to paint for about 6-7 years (´･ω･`;) Used poster colors. I thought of water colors actually, but i don't own any of it (´∩｀ミ)
That day i painted this was 290710. I came home from school earlier so i seized the chance to paint something (*⌒∇⌒*)

My inspiration, is made up of many paintings. Of all things i see and know, i painted the Sakura tree because it's one of my favourite nature sceneries. *u*

I've gotten some comments from my cousin who's an art student (it's good to know someone who's got the same interests as you so they can help :D), he said i need to add more details and make the flowering part more 3D. Rwahhh. I want to put into my portfolio~~

So.. what d'you think? (･∀･) Formspring me about it!

365, all year round.

2010-07-28T18:47:00.001+08:00

I started my 365Project on 21o71o. (●⌒∇⌒●)
It's no particular day, just something that it popped from my mind and that i have to do it. It's sort of a difficult task because you have to take a different picture on anything every day of your life, for 365 days (okay, duh.).

But as you take, you will "build a picture of the little day to day things that make your life so special and unique." It improves your photography skills, capture otherwise forgotten moments in your life and only takes a few minutes each day.ヾ(*・∀・)/
It's awesome, don't you think :)

You can visit my Project here! ♡ If you have an account already, let's follow each other~~(*･ω･)(･ω･*)
By the way, i upload them to my facebook too. So yeah, you can always look from there too. ^^~

Peektos of sweetsixteen.

2010-07-17T21:00:00.002+08:00

So, yeahhh. I was so friggin' late to post this one.
These were some of the photos taken on my 16th birthday! たんじょうび~ たんじょうび~(･∀･(･∀･｀) Hahahaha.
A really big thank you to all those who gave wishes, spams, presents! Was rather surprised by some people (ﾟ∀ﾟ*) . Love all of you so much, all of you are so awesome! (。・ω・。)♥

My birthday, 050710, fell on a Monday and it met on a school holiday, Youth Day! (*^日^*) ばかわらい~~ You can say that i'm kinda lucky.
In the morning, i met Lisa and Amelia! -double love- Amelia made me a lovely purple card and both of them got me a cat-designed tee, wuv it so so much! (*´∀`*)
So we just sat at the mrt platform and keep chatting, gossiping about random things. Camwhored too :)

Around the afternoon, i met both my classmates and schoolmates and went shopping together. Wanted to catch a movie at ViVoCity actually, but in the end we went to Daiso and the rooftop. For the first time i think, i didn't buy anything from Daiso. v(^∀^*)

Peektos of me, taken by Veron :)
Rest of the photos can seen via my facebook.

I post another regarding the presents i got, soon! I hope.
...(((；´ω｀)ｽｽｽ Haah.
My prelims are almost hanging around the corner. 23 august~~ ヽ(;´Д`ヽ)(ノ;´Д`)ノ *Probably*, after my prelims, i'll go into MIA mode. Well it makes no difference anyway, huh?
I'm hefing off.~＝＝＝＝＝＝☆(((((((((･ω･｡)ﾉ

Treasure ~ F.T. Island.

Holga haz arrived.

2010-06-29T19:32:00.002+08:00

Me can'tz wait to start on ze lomographic zourney.
It will be awesomez and amazing. (⌒▽⌒)

Pardon me on writing like that. Just playing around and stuff.
I got my holga on 270610! ♥ ♥ ♥
Sometimes, i still can't believe i got the holga already. Lol! I don't know why, it's like, one of my dreams had came true. *ticks it off the dream list*

Really, thanks a lot to LooSin for introducing me to Holga! ∪●･ω･●･ω･●∪ Initially i was pretty neutral about it, but after i had more research i realise, Holga is definitely a fun camera! (*´∀｀*)
Incase you do know what's actually a Holga, it's actually an affordable, almost-all-plastic, medium format (uses films) camera.
Yeah. (Y)

It was quite a tiring journey to get it. It's a Braddell lol. (;-_-) =3 When i got home, i had fever. I saw doctor yesterday, and he said it's because of my gumache, as it's infected. (○｀O´○) But then everything's all right now, just that my legs are still in soreness due to muscle ache -3-.

Okay okay sorry for complaining lol.
I have yet to place my roll of film inside, cause i just wuvv pressing the shutter. *click click* ヾ(*￣▽￣)ﾉ HAHA. But i think i will use it real soon!
So, stay tuned~~

I met this pretty girl, LooSin, on 240610!（･∀･）We met at Plaza Singapura which is located beside the Dohby Ghaut station. I asked about her age (because i wasn't sure) and i don't believe it. She's quite tall for that! Heh.
The first place we went was Daiso (one of my favorite shopping paradise woo) Ｏ(≧▽≦)Ｏﾜｰｲ♪ but i didn't get much things, only got a box of candy and LooSin got her boards. (^ー^)

We walked almost "everywhere" there, so we got bored and headed to Bugis! We didn't really have a place in mind to go, so yeah. (⌒∇⌒。) Went to Yoshinoya to have lunch, but i was kind of afraid that she wouldn't like it but she enjoyed the meal and we're all so full (⌒囗⌒). I didn't eat finish but managed to ate most of them all. Cause i'm not used to eating too much rice hahah. ヾ(;´▽｀)

After that, we took neoprints! ｖ(⌒ｏ⌒)ｖ The whole process was both fun and fast. When we went to decorate it, i went（゜д゜）because the machine made my eye with slight make-up and bigger. LOL, it was automatic! (゜∇ ゜)
Then headed to Kinokuniya since we had nothing to do and i spotted some books i really want. (´ω｀) I bought a Taiwanese magazine, Play since it featured FT Island o(>▽<)o Don't ask me about the price though. It kills. (^_^;)Another awesome day i had! I hope i will meet her again!
〜(◯´∀｀人´∀｀◯)〜

Ps. I just collected my Holga yesterday! I promise to post all about it asap okay? :)
Pss. Didn't go to school today, had fever since yesterday, due to gum infection. sucksss

Dreams are revolutions.

Went to Sentosa for my P6'o6 Gathering yesterday.
I didn't really enjoy myself much though （ノ´‐｀ヽ）, but i hope someone will re-organise this again. :)
The beaches at Sentosa is a lot different from the East Coast Park. The sand is more soft and the waves sounded nicer too.（・ｗ・）Can you believe that, i can still feel, as if my feet is touching again the soft white sand? (⌒▽⌒；；I really love the beaches at Sentosa. ⊂(ο･㉨･ο)⊃

The day's weather was great as it was just nice. ＾▽＾ There were some moments of rain though. Two of my classmates cooked some fried foods like nuggets and hot dogs and made sandwiches. We also bought some snacks and drinks together too. It was delishious （＾¬＾）~~

My friend, Siewpeng and i left earlier ε=ε=ε=ヾ(´▽｀*)ﾉ She treated me to chasoba noodles! Wow, japanese again o(>▽<)o. But that's only one okay. (￣▽￣)ノ We're all caught up with shopping! Mostly was window-shopping, however i bought an outfit and i love it so much (●´∀`). When i'm wearing it, i'll show you guys all right! ♡

Ahh, my mother's still not home yet. I miss her foods soo much! I think she's coming back tomorrow.
Can't wait for tomorrow, i'm having a ~~date~~! ♡（´・ω・｀）

Smile. Why? Because you can.

This post will be about yesterday.

That was my outfit yesterday, and i guess i'm in love with dresses now. I didn't really like wearing them in the past, probably because i don't have much self-confidence or something? Ha. (´･ω･`;)

I had the most japanese feast in day yesterday. (My own record, that is.) (￣＊￣ )
These are the food i ate:

Wakame udon (Seaweed udon)

Soft shell crab sushi x2

Chuka wakame (Seaweed)

Chuka wakame sushi

Salmon slices

Teriyaki chicken

Thank goodness i only gained water weight lolol. (＿△＿) I won't be eating much today, cause i had like sooo much yesterday. (⌒-⌒;) ・・・・

Before i headed for church service in the morning yesterday, i greeted my dad "happy father's day" and guess what he replied. He went, "it's today?" ( ~▽~) Hahahah! I only gave my dad a kiss, cause he didn't want anything from me.（*⌒３⌒*）⌒☆

After church service, my cell group went to Bishan for prawning but i didn't tag along because i went to look for my friends to get a belated birthday present for a classmate together.

Yup, so that's yesterday. ☆ﾐ(o*･ω･)ﾉ

Tired.

2010-06-19T22:29:00.006+08:00

Click on photo for better quality. These were taken during class beach cleaning.
Yes, i am mad tired (〃´o｀)=3 ﾌｩ to the maxXxXx due to school's "intensive After School Program". I know i've been saying this a lot, but this will be the last! So glad that it's over because i don't have much time to revise for my N levels and updating this blog! Therefore i apologise, i'll try my very best to update little-nincompoop whenever i'm free. （●´･△･｀）ごめんなさい！

I'm not really feeling myself lately, due to the "sudden" drop of temperature a few days ago. ( ﾟ 3ﾟ)≡@ It all started when i went to my classmate's BBQ at the East Coast Park. Before we started the bbq, there's this really strong sea wind that blew for about an hour. It was amazing though, as the weather was also dark and it's as if a tsunami was coming. Σ(=ﾟωﾟ=;)
Also, "hanging around" the dusty D and T workshop for 2.5 weeks and adding to my sinus condition. （ー△ー；）But i'm better now, i guess.

My mother's going back to her hometown, Malaysia, tomorrow for about 4-5 days to visit my ailing grandfather. His condition has been going up and down..（・へ・）Have i told you that my grandmother's house there was the only kampong-looking house along the street? (゜゜) Hahah, it's rebuilding now, probably taking about 6 months. I gonna miss that 70year-old house even though i'm really used to those types of houses. Because i like the past. :)
I think my mother's going to Kuala Lumpur for shopping also, gahhHH i wish i could tag along but i have so much assignments to do. (ノД`)・゜・。Hahaha, oh well!

It's Father's Day tomorrow! Treat him to a meal, accompany him overnight to watch world cup. It doesn't always have to be something extravagant or fancy, simple is lovely too. Heh （･∀･）.

For all daughters out there: read this :))

ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ
I can't wait for the beginning of next month, it's my ________! :))

(Click image for better view. I took the drawing from the right angle.)
So yeahhhhh, i drew again!（ノ＾ー＾）ノ~~
Instead of doing my presentation board for D&T yesterday, i drew this screenshot i took *evil grin*. Can't believe it took me about 2 hours to do this. Seriously. -3-

It's my third try on shading, so what d'you think (ﾟヘﾟ)？My friend said i've improved, but it looked weird. Soo...i don't know which part's weird. Probably the head. (・−・)・・・ん？

This scene was from one of my favorite animes, Happiness!. This girl's name is Haruhi. I love the anime very much. Although it was a mere 12 episodes, i cried at the last. ε＝（‐ω‐；；） So yeah! watch this if you're free or something.

・:*・・゜☆ You might be probably curious why i've been drawing these days. All these drawings i did are to put for my portfolio for future interviews like polytechnic. (･∀･｡)(-∀-｡)(･∀･｡)(-∀-｡)ぅんぅん I know there's still a year to go, but i doubt there will be time for me to draw.
...So i have to do early preparations!━━━(9・Д・)9

Hey!ヾ(〃⌒ ー———⌒)ﾉ~~ｺﾝﾆﾁﾜｧ♪
How's your holidays so far? I'm still going to school for intensive classes though. I loved this week's, 'cause my friends and i have been like, playing badminton for more than 2 hours! (^◇^)

Then on thursday, whilst playing as usual, we saw a rainbow! Immediately we made a dash
ε＝ε＝ε＝(ノ^∇^)ノ to our bags and got our phones out. Hahah! It was alittle sad, cause i don't bring my camera to school unless there are outings (well who does) and then i have to use my phone. This is because my phone's camera quality is lousy despite having a standard 3 megapixels. (_　_|||) But anyways it was amazing, it has been a few years (probably 4-5?) since i last saw one. ヽ(*⌒∇⌒*)ﾉ::･'ﾟ☆｡

Recently, i bought this packet of Rice Seasoning Mix.
It costed me S$3.30 from supermarkets, but waitttt, before you complain about the price, (*￣￣) there are 5 packets inside. It's quite a lot of the seasoning inside the packets. I ate about 2.5 bowls of rice for that one small packet (″ロ゛).
You know what, there's dried salmon and dried seaweed inside!(≧▽≦) The moment poured the packet onto my rai-su, there were FULL of seaweeds~~~（⌒〜；⌒）However, it's very, very, salty, so do not consume too much of that. Oishiishou~~~!

I did this Paper Chromatography experiment with my lab partner during chemistry yesterday.
I like this experiment a lot (＊´・ω・)ノ, because it's like a little surprise, as you can wonder what kind of colors is the ink is made up of. It uses filter paper and ethanol and takes time for the colors to show up. As you can see, this black ink is made up of colors blue, green and yellow. ﾜｰｲ♪

I used to think that ink colors are just made up of that color itself. But haha, things aren't that simple anymore, aren't they?

Neko-chan.

2010-05-29T14:37:00.003+08:00

Hooray! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞｺﾝﾁｬ♪
Finally after 2 weeks of procrastination, i colored the catty drawing last night. （￣ー￣）ニヤリッ If you don't know what i'm talking about, click here.

So yeahhhh, i used colored pencils for the background and the rest with crayons.（●＾U＾●）I got kind of bored with colored pencils, hahah. Added some vignetting to the image. I feel the cat's color is like, she slightly tanned. HAHAH (≧∇≦). Added some purple eyeshadow to match the purple scarf. Incase you don't know, i've drawn it from a worm's-eye-view perspective. However the angle isn't that obivious. :p

I don't know how long i took though. But all i know is that i like the process of the drawing more than what i get from the process.（*´ー`) So, what d'you think of my drawing?

Breakfast with my Teachers.

No, they are not gays hahah. Just fooling around.

Can you spot me? :B

HEYHEY!(:
June holidays are here! However, there isn't any for me (┳Д┳). But anyways, i have finally ordered the Holga 120GCFN!! ヾ(☆ω☆)ノI hope that by tonight i would be able to pay the deposit. I can't wait to get my hands on it, seriouszxsly. I don't really like the current camera i'm using, cause it dies so quickly and it can't do close-up focus. Rwahhhh ＼（───、 ───メ )

Went home from school early today since it's the "last day" of school and it's Vesak Day tomorrow. As usual, i have Breakfast with my Teachers. (⌒□⌒*)あーん There are quite a lot of delishious foods this time, from sushi.. ice cream.. cocktail.. to cheesecake! (￣¬￣*) 好物〜♪ Did i tempt you somehow? Hahah.

After that, we got back all our report books. Rather proud of myself this time, cause i've put in quite a lot of effort so yeah, i passed all of them except D-and-T. Hahaha. But then again, i've improved okay! Surprisingly, i got second in class too! d(*⌒▽⌒*)b Lolol.

So yup! Today's one of the awesome days i had. o(^▽^)o
Shall end this entry with one of my favourite peektos taken by my classmate today:

If you wanna check out today's peektos i've taken,

Do these photos tempt you? Bwahahah.
These are the collection of erasers that i've been keeping since last year. And yes, i love stuffs like these, a lot. （*⌒３⌒*）ちゅ〜

Blah, i can't believe i can still procrastinate at blogging, lolol. (〃￣〜￣)ゞ〜ｏ○◯ Hey, i have a question for youuuu! What are the stuffs you collect? Be it anything, tell me using my Formspring located at the left side! Hahah, okay this is yet another photoentry.

Cat with a Polaroid

2010-05-17T21:02:00.001+08:00

Hihihihihi. Kombanwa.
This is a photoentry. Again.
This is another cartoon i've drawn (just now!). It's inspired from one of my favourite comics, Nemu*nemu. It's a cute webcomic about magical stuffed animal puppies and their owners.
You can check the site out here! They even have a shop selling their character prints, stuffed toys and jewelries.

I like Nemu, "he is very soft-hearted and looks at the world in wonder. Some may say Nemu is "slower" to catch on to things, but he just understands the world in a very different way." You can know all the characters in Nemu*nemu over here.(:

All right, i'm done here. I will add colors tomorrow if i'm free~ If you feel that there's places i need to improve in this drawing, feel free to tell me via my Formspring. I accept critisisms at an extend. You may see the camera's slightly "crooked", but it's supposed to be like that, so yeah. Click the image for better quality. ^^

Ps. the japanese phrase meant, "Smile (for the camera!)"

Yumin's 35th anniversary.

This is a photoentry.
This is a photoentry.
This is a photoentry.

Hmm, i woke up as early as six today to this event which my primary school Yumin celebrated her 35th anniversary at the Bedok Reservoir park. Hmm, overall, it wasn't that bad. I managed to see some of my primary teachers.
D'you know, i can still remember some parts of my primary school song. -u- hahah. I used to remember when i was still studying there, it was like a chore to sing it. Now that i'm listening it again, it was like a melody i haven't heard in a thousand years.

Wanna view more?
Look for them at my facebook then. Feel free to add me. :))

Ps. i was thinking of putting more photoentries. What do you think?

ただいま!

2010-05-14T19:29:00.005+08:00

ただいま!! (That means "i'm home", which in this sense meaning i'm back!) This feeling..of being able to blog again, is AWESOME. Finally, my exams are ovaaa! Actually, most of them are all over, all i'm left now is Chinese Listening Comprehension. Geeeez. But nyahahahh, the paper's nothing anyway. :B
....
Soooo, how's everyone's doing? Are your exams over? June holidays are coming, but sadly i'm not really excited for it.. that's because the first THREE weeks of June i'm going back to school for intensive extra classes. URGH But maybe looking on the bright side, i'm getting pokettomanē (pocket money). Righttt.

Remember what i wrote on my previous post? That i'm saving for a polaroid camera? Well, i've changed my mind, i'm saving for a Holga 120GCFN now. There are many reasons why, and one of it is that it has more of the vintage feel.
Check this out

Special lomography film.
33 lomographers,
33 lomo LC-As and LC-A+s,
33 rolls of negative film
and 2 video cameras.

While i was watching this, i was like: . It's so amazingggg. Plus, i can't wait to meet LOOSIN over the holidays ! Always love chatting with her over anything and everything and i didn't know we had so much same interests! Hahaha.

Till then, goodbye!

Just believe.

2010-04-12T19:46:00.002+08:00

My latest design of “Believe” on my right wrist. Drew it on 100410, saturday night. I used green and purple for today’s Believe (: What do you think of this design?

You might be wondering, why am i always drawing this Believe thingy? Aren't you tired of drawing it, like almost daily? Actually, i was quite inspired from a story i heard somewhere, where this teen girl had a "Believe" permanent tattoo on her wrist. The tattoo was handwritten... by her mum. Her mum had cancer (I forgot what it was) and was told that she had only like 4 months (Not very sure!) to live, but instead she lived on for 2 years and passed away peacefully. So yeahhh, hope you know understand what i mean.

Partly of me writing this Believe thing.. is because currently, i have two dreams i wanna fulfil for now. Firstly, is to stop repeating my history of failing Math all the time. I'm gonna start do all the N Level ten-year series as fast as i could. I don't want to fail my math anymore! Yareba dekiru~~

Secondly.. a polaroid camera with my own ability! Like how i got the itouch by myself! This time, i need to save up $209 for it. I wanted the Polaroid model, but it's so so so so rare now. They're stopped making the flims very sad~ So i decided to get the Fujiflim Instax mini model instead. The thing i hate about it is about the polaroid size - credit card kind. I know that it's good that you could place them in your wallets, but i want the vintage feeling. Isn't what polaroid cameras are all about? But well, that's my opinion anyway.

Bottom line of this post... never be afraid to pursue your dreams. Just believe in yourself that you can do it, and you're on your way to turning your dreams into reality. If you ever feel upset and unmotivated, just think of your dreams. I believe, they will bring you up and running again. Strive hard for your dreams. Show the people who look down on you, that you can! Your dreams have never gave up on you, so you can't give up on yourself!

This shall be my last post before going into hiatus for my mid-year exams. Could you pray for me alittle? Thank you!
I'm not sure when i'll come back, probably next month i guess. All right, i hope this post kinda motivated or inspired you or something.

Daiso lovealot

2010-04-04T15:58:00.002+08:00

Happy Easter Sunday!
Went to CHC as usual for service and the drama production "Life-book" was so funny! I don't mind watching it again~
....

Last friday, went out with Veron aka HuHu to Daiso () for shopping, yea!~^^ Reached there around 12. There were alot alot of people since it's a public holiday. The part i hate about going to Vivocity is the mrt station. Rahhhh. It never fails to get jammed up.

This time i did not buy so much stuffs, but mostly are foodies 'cause previously i have bought all the items i wanted. After all the shopping, ate at the Japanese Gourmet Town for some ramen (I ate miso cha-su ramen) then we went to the Open Area for photographyyyyy! Just realised at that time she wanted a DSLR like me too! Hahah. That day the weather was burning mad. But i like the natural lighting anyway!

All right, peektos time!! Hover over the peekto to see captions.

As usual, the rest of the peektos are on my Facebook!
I'm accepting friend requests now.
Bai-bai!

Got bitten by a chihuahua

2010-03-22T21:34:00.000+08:00

Of course not this chubby Maltese. It's a she by the way.
She's so high and fun to play with! Such a friendly dog.
I met my classmates for like a gathering yesterday and had lunch at Pastamania.
After lunch we went to see the guys play basketball, and they pwned a lot.
My friend bought his 2 dogs down, a female and male, and i went to sayang the male one. It bit me on my thumb! YESSS, it's painful and it still does! Roar, that was my first bite from an animal.
And my friends only tell me that the male one bites right after Not only the flash hurts, the bone too. :(

But hoho, i love the female one a lot! She's so fun to play and be with haha. When i tried to walk her, the male dog barked at me LOL. He's jealous xD

So yup, that's kinda it. More photos are at facebook, but they're pretty little. So yup, just wanna blog to tell you how i got my first dog bite. LOL.

Universal Studios Singapore!

I took the red one. Imagine.. 14 storey high. Thrilling!

That's my brother in the panda suit. I'm serious! That's how i got the sneak preview tickets. ^__^

There are more than just these photos.

HortPark.

2010-02-27T20:37:00.001+08:00

Yay! I've finally got time to update my blog again.
Since the mid-January, i've been going home from school around 6:30pm due to extra classes and CCA . My new school principal implemented a rule that everyone has to go for CCAs including graduating ones,

Anyways, my school brought my class to HortPark (located at Alexandra Road) for a Biology project. My class was the first batch, yay! It was totally, totally, plus EST awwshummmm!
But the unfortunate thing is, the weather these days are...BURNING...! Anyone knows why? I've heard from my friend this would happen for around 3 days. But it seemed like a week already..

There were alot, alot, alot of flowers! Amelia you should go there! Haha. There were like 3 glasshouses too OMG~ But it's locked that time. Me and my clique were like, "Nuuuuu :( :( :( :(" We nearly even got lost because of the awesome flowers, LOL. They're really, really pretty. I should have bought some of the seeds there! But they seemed expensive ~~

View my Facebook for more photos @ HortPark~~

*** Zzz. Hell no i have never been MIA. Just some bandwidth problems on my blog. I'm not blogging for afew weeks/days due to school. PLEASE understand. I will only go MIA when i say so. Don't put words in my mouth, for pete's sake.

My Ex.

2010-02-09T16:06:00.003+08:00

070210, went out with Amelia and Lisa again! Lisa initiated that we could watch a movie together, and guess what we watched.
My Ex~
Yes, i'm absolutely paranoid about horror movies. Plus this movie's NC16! The funny thing is, i asked for three tickets and the person just gave me, without checking our ICs. Me and Amelia's 16 this year anyway. So yeah, it's my first NC16 movie watching with my friends together. Yay~

When we were about to go into the theater, there's nobody inside~ We assumed we were the only watching this show, but nah, in the end, there were some people, but not much. Throughout the whole movie, me and Amelia were all, -covers ears and eyes- The whole sound effect's reaaal scary.
Dare to watch the trailer? Click here.
To me, the whole movie's more of gore than horror. Kinda bloody and all. Lisa's eyes was all glued to the screen! I wonder where she got all the courage from.

After the movie, we did what girls do --- ! I got myself a new school bag and Amelia got birthday presents for her friends' upcoming birthdays. And then we went to McDonald's for some snacks while i bought McFlurry! Mmmm~~ we used my iTouch to plurk hahah! We talked and crapped alot too!

Loving the new design of McFlurry

And did i mention i saw a cute guy at Mac too? Hahahaha!
That day was really fun! I hope we could have more chances of going out together again~~

2010-01-28T19:42:00.001+08:00

Heyhey!
Haha, i'm so happy that i can blog today. Yippee~~
Okay around 1210 today my school brought the D&T students (that's me!) to VivoCity for a learning journey! We were supposed to like, look for inspirations for our upcoming product for the N levels.
...however i couldn't manage to find any.

Then we were supposed to go the Daiso to buy some products that are unique and linked to home, so i bought this cute earpiece holder :

It's made of rubber, it's really good but i wished the holder would be sort of longer alittle. I wanted to buy the one from Artbox actually, but the price is umm.. S$15++ for a small thing like that.

I tried my best to resist all my temptations of buying the things i saw It's reaaaaaally difficult! So in the end i bought only 3 things at Daiso today. Sad case, cos' it's my own money i'm using.
I removed the stickers of my iTouch and i re-decorated it with the Japanese letter stickers~~

1 - it says my japanese name. 2 - it says cat. 4 - it says "hers".

And guess what, the beanie was the first thing that caught my eyes when i was at Daiso. I was actually kind of hesitant to buy it, but then i don't regret buying it now~~~ i love it hahah! Actually it's called a winter hat not a beanie, i thought it looked like a beanie so yeah. But who cares anyway.

Ps. i've been wearing the beanie since blogging about this. LOL
Pss. Yes, it's Jaejin behind me!

Maybe a die-hard fan.

Hip hip horaaaaay!
I wanted to buy the DoubleDate album out of my own will, and i managed to get it! I felt kinda proud for buying it because i bought things i wanted by myself again .

But the sad thing is i've chosen the somehow-spoiled album.. look at the second picture! Must some crazed fan did this and i didn't check it well. Pfffffttttt.
Anyways, the album consists of the songs in Cross And Change too. Except I Hope v.2. Costs around S$31 @ Popular if you're interested, HMV is way expensive~~

Remember the previous few posts, i told you i bought the F.T Island badges online? The service was great! Really.
I got the badges yesterday woo~~~ Here you go:

I've only put up Jonghoon's and Seunghyun's up on bag. The chibi design is so cute~~~ Haha, i still have the rest, but i don't know where to pin it up on. I love my bag a lot a lot now!
I'm trying to save on the Cheerful Sensibility album, which sadly only HMV has. Guess the price... S$43

F.T Island hwaiting~~~~~~~~~~

I wish for it, i get it.

2010-01-20T17:35:00.000+08:00

Eeeek! Sorry for the lack of updates! I've not used the computer for the past 3 days because of my homework and tests. Argh, this and next year is gonna get busy and stressful~~
But then again, dekimasu!~^^

You guys should know that i've bought my iTouch with my own money right..
This time, i'll be trying to save up again to get myself a camera ! Weeee. I like the quality of the photos taken with the Canon models. So yeah, i want to buy Canon IXUS 200 IS~

Canon IXUS 200 IS

Doesn't it look chio?!
Comes in colors PURPLE, blue, silver and orange. (I'm not sure if it's orange or gold, because i've seen other countries selling gold omg)
But then in the photos the purple one doesn't really look purple.. however i see them in videos they do somehow. Hmm~

The reason(s) i want this camera~

There are like many, many scene modes! I was pretty shocked when i read the info..
Night snapshot, Kids & Pets, Indoor, Creative Light Effect, Fireworks, Beach, Underwater, Aquarium, Snow...
It costs about SGD 549.00 here~~ If you want to know more, you can check here about this camera.

I took the contest about Avril Lavigne's commercial on Canon too! Stand a chance to win IXUS 120 IS!
Who knows, maybe i'm just lucky enough...

Note to self: You'll be okay.

2010-01-15T19:24:00.000+08:00

I did not make these.

Like finally. :)

2010-01-14T18:39:00.002+08:00

Yeah, used my new layout!
**** From now on, i disallow anyone to take inspirations from my layout. When i used my previous Demi and Domo skin, there were SOME people (you know who you are) copying my layout style. Of course, i hate it.
Bear in mind, everyone has a style. Make your own, don't be a copy. If you copy, it means that you're re-following someone's life.
And if i ever, ever, find out anyone taking inspirations of my skins or ripping it, i'll burn your reputation off. And i mean it all right. ****

*cough cough So anyways, what do you think of this layout? This is my first time making a blue / turquoise skin. Removed some of my purple stuffs hahah. Did it kinda like surprise you cos' i don't do simple skins? Suggestions please

This is what i've been doing just now.
My school always held spruce-up competitions every term for decorating our class, and i've volunteered to draw 2 cartoon tigers for the CNY deco.

If you're 'smart' enough, there's more than just that sidebar profile!Thanks Abel for the cutesy *purpur* back? banner! :)

And yup, my Tumblr's revived again. :)
I think i'm gonna use my new lay tomorrow!
Target reached! 100 followers~ Thanks!!
♥♥♥

I want to do what i like. Where i like.

2010-01-07T19:35:00.000+08:00

So yeah. I went to Temasekpoly's open house today!
My class was like seperated into many groups.. like going everywhere by ourselves.
But anyways, we got this red-colored sling bag filled with lots of goodies inside! Like: Teens, Acnes cream, Iced coffee (Idk why they give us that ) and... More Than Words voucher! Heh.
This is the design of the sling bag:

Not bad huh. My friends and i only toured the IT and Design schools. Design was the best all right! Since last year, i've been aiming to go to the Visual Communications course once i'm out of secondary school. Cos they've got exactly the lessons i've wanted: Photography, illustration, typography, graphics design etc etc! Unfortunately, it's the best course in there and the cut-off point for last year is... 12.

We have to like collect the stamps every course (station) we visit, and when we collected them all we get stuffs The stamps are so cute hahah! We also received a passport from them. Inside, it really looked like a real passport~

So yeah, that's the end. Went home with my friends, really tired and my shoulders went sore. But overall, it was awesome!

Out-of-topic: I took my height and weight today and guess what, i'm 169cm now! Hohoho. I told my mum about my height and she said, "Stop growing lah!"
I hope i just reach 170cm next year and that's it, stop! Hahahaha

Outing w Amelia & Lisa!

2010-01-06T18:47:00.000+08:00

What can i say now? Hmm.
My computer has been reformated and upgraded to Windows7, yaaaay! But i feel feel kinda like weird to suddenly use a keyboard cos' i've been using the itouch for quite a long time already. Haha
It's completely in good condition nao!

So yeah, i went out with Amelia & Lisa, 2 of my awwshum cyberpals, a few days ago !
We met at Junction8, and had our usual lunch + gossip hahahah! Ate twister fries woo, it's a long time since i ate it. And yes, it was a delishious meal.

After that, we went to buy Amelia's school shoes. And we visited some shops When we went to MiniToons, we saw the chickens and Lisa went to press it, and it screamed, "COCK-A-DOODLE-DOO!" And we laughed like mad

Second stop was More Than Words, where i found somewhat what i wanted - cutesypinkpolkadotsstrip! I wanted to buy lacy ribbons actually, to decorate my chalkboard hehheh. Actually wanted to buy the blue one, but both of them said the pink one's nicer, so yeah ^^. Peektures of my chalkyboardy will be posted at the bottom of this post.

After that we went to Action City, where we saw those ~~stupid~~ chickens again. Hahahah, but that wasn't the main thing; the main thing is that my favorite FT Island song was played at that shop omo! And oh yeah! Speaking of FT Island, i've ordered the F.TI badges set ! Kyaaa, hope to receive them fast~

I think i'm going to meet Lisa again soon, because she wanted the chalkboard too ^^. The polka dots are the small kind, so you might not see clearly :).
Thanks Abel for the gifts !

Oh yeah, i've seen all the x'mas and newyear gifts from all of you already, thanks alot ! Sorry that i didn't reply all the tags, because it's pretty fussy to open them in itouch.
That's all for today, gonna post about FT Island tomorrow~ Stay tuned!

A date with the yellow buddy.

Heyheyhey! Using my friend's pc to blog.
Last friday, i went to Suntec City with Spongebob lover Shuxian to meet Spongebob! Actually we were pretty disappointed that the event starts at 7pm, and we reached there around 3pm
Peektures before we went somewhere else:

But then in the end we saw Spongebob! We're surprised, don't know the reason why too.
Before that we ate at Pastamania, because i had a little gastric problem. Shuxian was pretty full but then she managed to eat the 1/2 of the baked rice Thanks oh!

Photos during the F-U-N event:
You see, Spongebob's the shortest among Squidward and Patrick! Patrick's really cute! He saw the jellyfishes and went, "Haha, haha, haha" And nearly banged the wall LOL.
Squint your eyes *hard* if you wanna see Plankton. He's a puppet.

Finally i'm so proud of this peekture:

Paper roses never wilt nor hurt.

2009-12-10T20:54:00.000+08:00

Hoho, i went to bling my phone and Sockie. But then i removed the blingies from Sockie. LOL. I don't know why, i just feel that it doesn't fit..

Nah, my computer's still not fixed yet. I'm using my cousin's laptop. Since it's been awhile i've logged into Blogger, i'm shocked! 90 followers! Thanks alot readers! Really. ^_^

I managed to learn how make paper roses. In 1.5 pathetic hours. I was this close to giving up until i made one. Heh, used waste papers, not bad eh. Save environment.

I bought Pocky just now! S$5.90 MAD DELICIOUS YO. I hope i'm tempting you. Oh yeah, i bought a S$2.50 worth of Ferrero Rocher too! I'm intending to spread the joy. :B

Right now, i'm editing my new blogskin. Hope i could use it tonight.
Sayonara!

2009-11-27T17:10:00.000+08:00

But no worries, check out my plurks and tweets okay!
I missed alot of my cyberpals here! Huuhuu

Anyways, i went to JB, Malaysia on 19~21 Nov. It's been 1 year since i went to my grandma's. I somehow missed country life haha. But then i got alot of mozzie bites on my feet
Let the peektures roll!

Oh yeah, my grandma keeps alot of chickens too. When i say alot i mean alot! They even recognise people. Whenever my grandma comes to the yard, the chickens all ZOOOM! to her because they know she's gonna feed haha!

They're really lively i tell you. While i was there it's kinda boring though, i kept playing the games i had on my ipod lol. My cousins were all on their holiday jobs so yeah.
However , my brother and i went to the Papu (sp!) And it's popular for its food. And i got my hand on the chewing gum wooo! Lol.

That's what i've been doing since i did not have any computer. And yeah, i reborn-ed my hair. Again. My friends told me it's weird on me. What do you think?

Thankyou Peiling for letting me use your computer to blog about crap!

2009-11-15T21:28:00.000+08:00

I went to my teacher's wedding today.
It's seriously cool! I have never been invited to a teacher's wedding before, so it's pretty special. Heh.
There aren't much photos, and i didn't get to take photos with my teacher and his bride! D': Speaking of the bride, she's really really beautiful! Well of course haha, the bride and the groom are the most beautiful and handsome on their wedding days.

My teacher even sang s song for her woo! He's got a great voice. Okay lah. Have a look for the photos yourself. ^^

PEEKTURE SPAM ALERT !

So my friends and i hanged around for not quite long, went to White Sands shopping mall. Took some neoprints and eat my favourite food - ramen! Delishious-ness.
The neoprints area had some arcade games and the keychains are so adorable! I think even you might think it is too!

We got a set of Ferrero Rocher as the wedding gift. After i ate it i made it into a rose! Haha.

Tada! My first rose. Using my popiah way. Lol. A rose with a fat stalk. Hoho.
Here's the video if you're interested to make a FR rose.

我们都泪了

2009-11-14T20:29:00.000+08:00

星空在闪烁像你的眼泪悄悄划过
当你放开了手离开的时候
有没有一点舍不得我
泪光在闪烁而我的眼泪忍住不敢坠落
我还留在黑暗中守候
你却已经远远离开我

有过的快乐我都记得
回忆还旋转着爱怎麽停了
我们都泪了

11:11 is awwshum

2009-11-12T20:15:00.001+08:00

I would just say, cos my computer was spoiled and it's still spoiled! I don't care, you'll still gonna my grandmother stories. :B

Okay so i..
woke up around 8am in the morning, thanks to my mum. Told her to get me up @ 9am plus and she woke me the wrong time

I regretted going out at 1040; should have went out earlier! I was the last one to reach Orchard nuuu, and i feel like i'm an Orchard blurblock I don't really go to Orchard lol. Whenever i go there i would just get tempted from the branded goods i see.

Anyways, i was quite shocked when i saw Abel, cos' i'm taller than him omg I'm starting to hate my height nao lol. Thank goodness they weren't angry because i was late. (I hope you guys aren't!)

Firstly we reached Cineleisure and had KFC for lunch! Amelia and i had the same meal haha It was delishious, because it was food + gossip! Muahahaha.

Secondly all of us were dying to watch Jennifer's Body, so we tried to lie to get in haha! And of course, EPIC FAILLLL

Then we wanted to take neoprints so we went all the way to Bugis! Thanks Abel for the taxi ride Took 3 machines in 3 hours woo! I know you guys saw the neoprints so i don't have to upload already. Plus i'm lazy :B We all went high and Abel ate Amelia's head! Oh yeah, Abel gave us some candies and 3 unazukin fans for us! It was really cute haha. Thanks again~

We walked around Bugis Street quite a few times before we got settled down at McDonald's for food + gossip again! Muahahaha. After that we visited the pet shop where i went when i saw those rabbits, hamsters and guinea pigs! Hehehe. There was this tortoise which bites away the bubbles, and follows where our fingers points to! Hahaha, pretty cute

PEEKTURE START ALERT !

Rest of the photos are at Amelia's, Lisa's and Abel's facebook. Hoho. I wanna go out with them again!
I love 11:11!

Wello earthlings!
I'm so-so-so-so happy nao! Plus E-S-T 哦~
Cos' i managed to buy my vest @ Bugis Street. My girlfriends helped me to bargain. LOL.

I went out with Xuan & Sandy today, for the Red Dot Museum trip today. It's actually a school trip, but i don't understand why they told us to go there by ourselves and wear school uniform!
But then the three of us were the only people whom wore home clothes haha. Was pretty embarrassing actually haha.

Red Dot Museum is actually to showcase the products that won Red Dot Award. If the product you're using has won it, it means that the latter itself is reallyreally good And iTouch has won too!
Okay, sorry for my nincompoop aka grandmother story.
Let the photos sroll!

PEEKTURE SPAM ALERT !

See i told you Apple products has won the Red Dot Award.
I also went to Artbox and bought 2 sticker sets too. I love Artbox although some stuffs are rocking expensive

Hohoho. Tomorrow's 11 nov! Been looking forward to meet the three cool people. Muahahaha, byebye!
