These days-

-have been pretty alright i guess! ^^ Things at sch have been looking up(socially, not academically :) )and had an impromptu meet up with Sarah and Sylv dear! :)

Had a really nice time with Sarah on Thurs. It was just a simple dinner and shopping trip, but it felt like the old times again! :)) You've no idea how much i've missed those days. :D Haha. I also FINALLY bought my Adele cd 8)

Had lunch at this delish food court place at Toa Payoh w Sylv dear today. Idk how that eatery makes profits; the food's really good and cheap!

Academic-wise, i seriously hope i finally get the hang of this aggravating Business Finance thing sooner or later. I was just stewing my head over the formulas and how to apply them. More annoying is the fact that the formula which i memorized-and so proudly used to compile my answers w Chen and Sylv whilst studying-were all for naught. Apparently the formula is Useless; another formula is, apparently, the only WORKING one.

Damn nerdy i know but still! Idk why useless formulas are included, seriously.

Anyway, it's still raining. Imma sync my Adele cd asap and head off to bed for a nice sleep :D

Nights all! ^_^ xo

Impromptu-

-karaoke with Odie after sch today! :) Liang has this really good offer poor students like us just cannot refuse, lol.

We had fun! I only wish she were in my Poly, goodness.

On another note, i'm still coming to the terms that i do seem, indeed, to be a social outcast in this poly. I am not on the same wavelength on these people, i suppose. Either that or the fault lies with them. Nothing seems to be seriously wrong with me(except that i ask silly questions, can be really blur...)-i of all people should know clearly who i am.

Well, whatever the reason, i'm sure i'll find my place one day. And quite obviously this has been exacting it's toll on me emotionally; my esteem is battered to be truthful. But to be cheesy, it's not to say i haven't grown stronger. :))

I'm quite glad to be rid of a batch of certain assholes. Now i guess i've to weed out 'toxic' people in my life.

I've also become immune to the 'sting' and negative feelings in the past that accompanied certain acts, etc.

Yep. So here's looking at the bright sides i suppose. :))

Can't deny a trace of sadness still lingers though.

Still here, holding on tight.

Credits to Mr Brown show. He takes such beautiful pictures! :)

Had a good time at Chen Xin the Lovely's house today. :) Basically, it was the highlight of the week! Hadn't realised how much i missed her until i spent time with her HAHA. Studied w Sylv too ^^

On another note, i guess i've been having a rough time in school. It's very obvious that i'm not well liked and that the people i currently go around with think i'm weird.

A,azing how there's such a blatent dearth of people who can appreciate the different.

Anyway.

I admit i am pissed at Them for treating me this way. Esp a certain group of f**ktard bastards but that's another can of worms.

I am also pissed at myself for letting them treat me this way, and for letting it get to me. Like seriously, this world needs more friendly, warm, open. caring people. Nowadays it's like i'm being put through an emotional Artic winter or smth(sorry for melodramatic haha.) Tcch.

One thing's for sure-i won't ever let myself become one of these cold, unresponsive beings. F**k their calleousness; f**k it all.

Hope better times will roll my way. I really need something to lift me up from this funk i'm in now.

Chen's text did make me laugh and lightened my mood considerably on my way home though. :))

Irritation and an empty feeling

Only the 3rd day of a brand new 2 years semester and already i'm really irked by ___________. Buddha grant me the patience and serenity to deal with this person.

Also, today was the first time i've ever heard someone think that the word-or simple description, if you will-"Butch" was an insult.

WOW. First for Everything huh.

Genuine, elegant, patient, happy! What're yours? :D

Rude people and how to deal with them

How do you deal with unfriendly people?

Ok, I've always had a pretty outgoing personality, so I talk to people and ask them questions about them because I am genuinely interested and want to get to know them better. Recently, after a bout of depression, I realized I was being a people pleaser, and that means a lot of people don't care about how they treat me. Is that why people are being unfriendly to me?
Sometimes, even when I say thank you to someone, they continue as if they haven't heard me. I realize they may not have heard me, but my sensitive nature makes it hard to accept such treatment.
So, how do you deal with unfriendly and cold people in your lives?

Don't change the fact that you have an outgoing personality, the way people treat others is a reflection on their own lives. Toughen up your attitude when dealing with rude people, they are not worth worrying about.

In many built-up parts of the world, people don't know how to deal with spontaneous kindness, they may instead feel you have some dark agenda. You have to learn to ignore such crudity.

When you say thank you, make very brief eye contact - confidently showing how genuine and heart-felt your words are. If they choose to ignore them, move on.

Holy shit all this makes sense! :D

Be proud of me,y'all; i finished my homework today! :))

Well, only 1 out of the three tutorials we have as homework,that is... still, not a bad start for a procrastinator i think. Hee.

4 hours of National Education tmr. O, the "Joy"!

But really,siao, they really have to teach us this in poly?

-_-

On another note, ytd was the start of school. It was a mixture of emotions for me,i guess-the overwhelming factor was awkwardness tho, Still,having a friend you know helps i guess. :)

Today was equally awkward. I don't know if i'm rushing things, but already i feel perplexed by this person's...well,unfriendliness? My friend says she's sociable tho-i have yet to experience that.

The behavior of some baffles me too. Like: why does she think she's always right-how does she even justify her actions to herself? ;Why's she suddenly being such a cold ______? ; why do they pretend not to know me?

Well either they forgot my face or name or mistook me for someone else, idk.

Strangelings.

Anyway, i do hope the upcoming weeks or even months( -_- ) will be better.

Hmfph. Nights all!

Thought i was way over-

-this silly little, foolish pipe-dream of a ___________. But, well...apparently not.

Tmr will be fraught with ...err..idk, a little obstacle i guess.

Gotta sort my mind out and do something that'll Totally turn the tides for me.

Sorry for the speaking in riddles thing.

Anyw,in other 'news',went out with Sylv today. Going out on Tues with her again! :)) Love.

XOXO

May tmr be a fruitful, blessed one.

Oh, i SOOOOOO want this necklace!!

Reading FashionToast's blog nowl her visuals are really ethereal, beautiful, charming...you gotta see it to know what i mean.

Pamela Love presentation at Milk- ooh.

http://bonadrag.com/index.php?l=product_list&m=26 - for future, er, retail therapy purposes. :)

This tribal, raw beauty of a necklace costs $850...in pounds too,mind you. Hai. ): Looks like it's gonna be consigned to my ever-growing wish list!

Advent of a new sem-

-can only mean more things to come. Drama! Studies. EXAMS. And on a non-academic note, more teriyaki chicken from Splash and Decker's. I suspect that will be one of the few things i'll miss about that place when i graduate. HAHA.

Drama, well, on a positive scale of course. :)

FINALLY got my tooth removed today. What a relief!! I bit down on it hard last night and after that i stayed awake to 5.30 freaking am in the morning and got away with 5 hours of sleep.

Visited a tooth specialist today and surprisingly enough, he didn't charge a single penny for the x-ray of my damaged tooth! Then had to rush down to my preferred,trusted dentist at Lavender Clinic(he's a little dotty,straightforward-brutally so sometimes-but still likable and adorable. HAHA)to extract it. Whilst the administrations of anesthetic to my gums via injection(OUCH), he told me that the first doc normally charged $150 just for the X Ray alone.

Then he told me he may not have charged me cause "you look so angelic and cute and adorable and your mum was so nice that maybe he spared you the cost".
HAHAHA,what!

Anyway, apparently he and the first doctor(F.D) were friends in medical school and F.D was appointed "Most Handsome" in medical school. He was surprised by my mum and i going "No leh?" to his query of "So how, you think he's good looking?"

Cute, slightly dotty, and rather amusing, this dentist of Lavender. XDD

Teehee!

Mum told me to keep the tooth-which the dentist placed in a plastic baggie for me to bring home-to show Dad. I would've complied if not for the strong smell of rot coming from the tooth in that baggie. Smells exactly like how my turtle tank's water used to be in those humid Pri-sch days; fetid and wretched!

Threw it away in the end.

Well, i guess this post tells all how my hols have been. So dull and decrepit that even the removal of a tooth becomes fodder for this blog.

Still, i will miss those days of jogging at leisure on the treadmill lazing around, watching NCIS,Criminal Minds, etc and just being a lazy pig i guess.

Am viewing my timetable now and i must say, i'm not particularly excited about this. Perhaps it's cause i could have to sit alone in a lecture hall-so awkward and strange, what with your friends with their friends, etc surrounding you!

Hmpfh,well. We shall see. :)

Nights~

:D

http://www.tauruswoman.net/may_17_birthday_features.htm

Well,cancelled lunch with a poly acquaintance today cause i had to see the dentist. Up to now my tooth's still aching something bad. ):

School's starting soon and i am so Notttt looking forward to it! Studying, rote memorizing,etc...i'd much prefer a hands-on approach. Like y'know, in Chem lab where they let you do stuff yourself! That'd be so much more fun as compared to something as boring as memorizing stuff.

Oh, just something i came across while reading articles :"Taurean women do not see social status while making their friends. They want to be friends with people who do not hide their true nature and come across as they really are.

Their friends may be a little weird, but they will not be phonies or hypocrites."

HAHAHA a little weird! XDD

Anyway, had some fun at Sarah's house ytd ^^ For reasons that shall be veiled in mystery as of now.

Hee.

Nights :)

Karaoke and bonding time-

-is all that it takes to make this girl's day. :))

Met Odie dear at Bishan mrt, and we traveled to Nex to take advantage of the $8.80 4-hr-long karaoke offer there! Didn't have any empty spots tho,so we went to Liang Court instead...where we spent a good,enjoyable 4 hours belting out songs and nibbling away at snacks(woe betide my waistline).

Oh wait my goodness idk if most people were invited but i've been given an RSVP to Elite Model Castings for Guess in FB. O_O

Damn...if only if i were taller and much less slimmer...!

Well,every girl wishes to be a model someday.

Lol.

Well anyway, so that basically sums up my day. Karaoke with Odie dear at Liang! :)

May not seem much, but quality time with friends is always appreciated. :)

Photos of my recent buys over this 2 weeks-holiday:

Got these w Sylv~

And this, w Odie(when we went to FEP haha).

Not pictured is a cape-like cardigan, some necklaces and a top from F21,hair bows, hairband and something else, i'm sure...spent lots, and may give in to getting this leopard-print dress and a cape from Kitschen in Nex.

Rant:

Honestly idk what the hell it is with my f**king male chauvanist of a father. Every single time i go out he scolds me for doing so and goes "You don't need to do house chores ah?!"

Not in a very gentle or nice way mind you-a f**king violent way.

LIKE WTF AH DO I LOOK LIKE FREE CHILD LABOUR. GO F**K YOURSELF LAH!

Grrrrrrrrrrr.

And honestly it isn't as though i don't help out in any way-i DO,then they go and discredit it and go "You never helped out!" when i could've actually done that chore a f**king 5 mins before.

And then that f**ker goes "Everytime you come home you use the comp!"

LIKE WTF YOU WANT ME TO STAY AT HOME AND STARE AT THE WALL; YOU THINK I'M A F**KING HOUSEPLANT AH, DON'T NEED ANY ENTERTAINMENT?!

WHAT THE FUCK YOU WANT ME TO DO THEN YOU ___________?!!

And these f**kers wonder why i stay out so often and don't want to come home or even be civil to them sometimes.

F**king hell.

I am going to escape this f**king tyrant of a male chauvinist father and unreasonable mother and move far away and get my own house in the future.

It's f**king ridiculous how that f**ker thinks all his rules HAVE to be obeyed all the time when there isn't even a shred of logic to what he does or says.

No use even being civil to them at all.

No friggin use.

I aim to escape and hide someplace with better, more reasonable, FAR better-tempered and logical people. And quite possibly take up martial arts so i can kick the asses of any unreasonable, etc, male chauvanists who dare wander into my path HAHAHA.

F**king nut house this.

A Letter from "Mom n Dad"...

My child,

When I get old, I hope you understand 'n have patience with me
In case I break the plate, or spill soup on the table because I’m losing my eyesight, I hope you don’t yell at me.
Older people are sensitive, always having self pity when you yell.
When my hearing gets worse 'n I can’t hear what you’re saying, I hope you don’t call me ‘Deaf!’
Please repeat what you said or write it down.

I’m sorry, my child.
I’m getting older.
When my knees get weaker, I hope you have the patience to help me get up.
Like how I used to help you while you were little, learning how to walk.
Please bear with me, when I keep repeating myself like a broken record, I hope you just keep listening to me.
Please don’t make fun of me, or get sick of listening to me.

Do you remember when you were little 'n you wanted a ballon? You repeated yourself over 'n over until you get what you wanted.
Please also pardon my smell. I smell like an old person.Please don’t force me to shower.
My body is weak.
Old people get sick easily when they’re cold. I hope I don’t gross you out.

Do you remember when you were little? I used to chase you around because you didn’t want to shower.
I hope you can be patient with me when I’m always cranky. It’s all part of getting old.
You’ll understand when you’re older.
'n if you have spare time, I hope we can talk even for a few minutes.
I’m always all by myself all the time, 'n have no one to talk to.
I know you’re busy with work.
Even if you’re not interested in my stories, please have time for me.

Do you remember when you were little? I used to listen to your stories about your teddy bear.
When the time comes, 'n I get ill 'n bedridden, I hope you have the patience to take care of me.
I’m sorry if I accidentally wet the bed or make a mess.
I hope you have the patience to take care of me during the last few moments of my life.
I’m not going to last much longer, anyway.
When the time of my death comes, I hope you hold my hand 'n give me strength to face death.

'n don’t worry..
When I finally meet our creator, I will whisper in his ear to bless you. Because you loved your Mom 'n Dad.
Thank you so much for your care.
We love you. ! ♥

Steve Job's Passing

http://www.iphone5gfeatures.com/world-loses-the-visionary-in-steve-jobs/

I thought of going 'Another bright star has left the world...R.I.P Steve Jobs' but it sounds wayyyy too corny.

Haha.

What a loss though. A truly great loss.

I hope he didn't have to suffer before finally passing on...

Tragic loss,really.

A nice little story

October 3, 2011

A while back, at the entrance of a gym, there was a picture of a very thin and beautiful woman. The caption was "This summer, do you want to be a mermaid or a whale?"

The story goes, a woman (of clothing size unknown) answered the following way:

"Dear people, whales are always surrounded by friends (dolphins, seals, curious humans), they are sexually active and raise their children with great tenderness.
They entertain like crazy with dolphins and eat lots of prawns. They swim all day and travel to fantastic places like Patagonia, the Barents Sea or the coral reefs of Polynesia.
They sing incredibly well and sometimes even are on cds. They are impressive and dearly loved animals, which everyone defend and admires.

Mermaids do not exist.

But if they existed, they would line up to see a psychologist because of a problem of split personality: woman or fish?
They would have no sex life and could not bear children.
Yes, they would be lovely, but lonely and sad.
And, who wants a girl that smells like fish by his side?

Without a doubt, I'd rather be a whale.

At a time when the media tells us that only thin is beautiful, I prefer to eat ice cream with my kids, to have dinner with my husband, to eat and drink and have fun with my friends.

We women, we gain weight because we accumulate so much wisdom and knowledge that there isn't enough space in our heads, and it spreads all over our bodies.
We are not fat, we are greatly cultivated.
Every time I see my curves in the mirror, I tell myself: "How amazing am I ?! "

(The girl on the picture is French model Tara Lynn) Feel free to tag yourselves :)
Last comment: I'm not putting down thin people, being a thin woman myself (BMI of 22 maybe?) just saying that being large doesn't equate to being unattractive.

Black stars and Hollow nights

-just something that popped into my head at random. Also cause i can't think of any 'start' for the title. Hahaaa.

Just met Sylv dear at Somer today for our weekly catch-up! Well,at this stage it's more like me accompanying her to study, heehee. Not that i'm complaining...i verily, sincerely wish with all my might that our weekly catch-ups won't ever be disrupted. Well it may when she goes overseas but still...

Nevermind, i'll cross that road when it comes.

So anyw,she went to donate blood(so brave and humane of her! Haha)and i sat at the seats opp Gong Cha for an hour plus. We got a pair of denim-and-rose-print-shoes when she got back,for $15! Then proceeded to Novena(i bought sushi for lunch)and she got Salad Stop. Went to a food court to eat and study and i also got the black cape i've been eyeing 2 weeks ago! And lychee perfume from Body Shop :DD

Ah, retail therapy.I'm gonna work so i can afford my own spending habits.

Hee.

Also, random stuff i did to my nails :DD I'm gonna get pink glittery nail polish and yellow to go with my black shattered one day. :)

Pretty? :D Heehee.

Nights!
