Friends that keep me alive~

I'm trying to consistently blog. Maybe it would help me in expressing my feelings better. Not that I had trouble with them before, especially the negative ones but it's better not to keep things bottled up inside. Had this epiphany when I was discussing some stuff with my Uni friends. Topic was 'Tactful or Fake?'. Well, we did not exactly came up with that topic statement but our content were revolving around that and I thought that it was pretty interesting to ponder upon. After an hour or so of discussing, we saw things from different perspectives and it was really brain-stimulating in some sense. So I thought I would share it out here. What are your views about tact? To what extent would you consider a behaviour 'fake'?

School's coming to an end soon. Week 11 is over and only a few more weeks before my exams start.
(・へ・) 

But every cloud has a silver lining and in this case, it means that I'm finally gonna have a life again! It will be time to catch up with friends, do the things that I've been longing for, dramas, read, beach and.................... BANGKOK TRIP!!! Oh yea!

 

Yeaps, I know I've been rattling on about my July BKK trip since the past few posts but I'm just so dmn excited! And you can bet your hair I'll still mention it in the upcoming posts. =D


Anyway, was trying to clear space in my iPhone and com and realised, I have tons of photos that have yet to see the light and I was thinking, I shall just stuff everything into my blog. =^_^=

So as I was sorting out my photos, I saw some old photos too which made me go:（　ﾟ Дﾟ）

It's amazing how people can change. In this case, I mean physically. Looking back at a certain collection of photo I have, I'm always amazed.

Like Joy would always mention, "Why didn't you tell me how horrible I look?"

Well, gotta say, I guess I had little or zilch fashion sense at the age of 6? Hahahaha! But look at her now, big change! Woah! 

Photo took from her FB and nah, she's not a mother yet. Just wanted to put a deceiving photo up!

Another collection of photos that will always bring a smile to my face is of my secondary school mates. The way we look and the crazy things we did, oh gosh. Endless!

I found neoprints of Kim and I in 2005? Oh gosh, horrendous. Not going to post it up or Kim might kill me. Actually, I think I might just do it myself.

Secondary school, those were the days. Days where I met some of the best people in my life. Not just the classmates I had, but the teachers. Well, I gotta say, I started having more confidence in myself thanks to the teachers. Sounds really cliche but it's true. Thanks to the mini outburst flare-up that I had in Sec 3, I found friends who were willing to stick by me. (≧∇≦)

Oh gosh, i feel so sentimental now.

 

BAH!

Hahaha! Hope that didn't freak you out! Yea, I decided to upload some photos of a previous meet-up that I had with my 3 awesome girlfriends!

Looking back, it has been 10 years since we know each other.

KIM! 10 years since we've been pestering each other!

10 years & counting..

 Though it has been known that we do not show our affections for each other in the conventional way but still, we managed to survive the horror build up a strong and unique friendship~

Up to this day, even though we don't meet each other as often but whenever we do, we're able to talk like old times and this is one of the things I'm grateful to God. He blessed me with these 3 awesome gals in my life and through them, I've managed to grow even closer to Him. So without further ado, I present to you,

Kimby, Sarah & Evan!

 

Love these girls and I missed them so. I can't wait till we're all done with school and organize a meet-up again!

Sarah, up to her old tricks.

Evan, looking psychotic-fun!

  

And Kim, trying to look stern but not having much success~

Like I said, old times. As crazy as ever~

  

I guess we've really grown. Each of us embarking on different paths now. Can you believe that she's going to be a teacher in the future? Hahaha! 

 

Oh yea, I mentioned in my previous post that I'm taking driving lessons now~ I came across these photos which I took in the past when I was in Kim's car.

She has a row of dogs on her dashboard and goodness know how long it has been there. She claims it was left there by her brother but I bet she's secretly enjoying the torture they had.

Look at the colour difference!

And this is supposed to be a dalmatian. =.=

Poor doggies~ Imagine there's 1 whole row of them.

Oh, and she had a mini car accident the 1st time she drove me around. She caused the loss of an eyeball. 

  

That poor frog rolled down from the dashboard and fell to its death. We mourn the loss of it till this day.

Alright, I hope these photos entertain you as much as they were to me. =D Abrupt ending as my stomach senses Dad's awesome cooking and is starting to sing!

On a side note, I can't wait to catch Hunger Games with Sherwin, Leen & BT tomorrow! Woots!  

Should..

Yea, I should really be blogging more often.

SHOULD.

But then again, I'm just too lazy and tend to procrastinate too much. And as I've been using Twitter again, I find that all my thoughts that I wish to post about are all u there. Though it's only 140 words but, oh well, I'll make do with it! Hah!

So follow me on Twitter if you want to be updated with my nonsensical thoughts.
JoXianna

Hmm..

Mmh..

Maybe, I'll just give a few updates since I'm here. *grins*


School's been busy. Nothing new there. Surprisingly, I'm almost done with my projects. I'm left with just 1 project left and my Psych paper. However, this project is the bane of my semester as it is Finance. Urgh. Hopefully I'll be able to be bff with it soon. Hmm, can't really see it happening anytime soon. Bah!

Since the hectic-ness of school has more or less decreased, I'm currently trying to rush my driving lessons. My aim is to be able to get my license by June? Maybe July. I must get it by Festival of Praise 2012! Then I can be the chauffeur for my church kids! Hahahaha! How nice of me! Thanks to Kim, I've realised that having a car is really convenient and you get to go to tons of places that you don't really go to!

Like for example, when Clinton came to Singapore 2 weeks ago, Kim was our chauffeur! Hahaha! We went to Dempsey & Holland V. My 1st time there as both places were not exactly that accessible through public transport. Love the ambiance of those 2 places. I'm definitely going back there once I get my license.

Was so glad to meet my Aussie relatives again! We only get to meet once every 3-4 years? Really missed them so much! It's fun having relatives in many different countries but when it comes to family-filled festivals, kinda of hard to meet. Like Chinese New Year. I've only spent 1 Chinese New Year with them before!

Actually, scratch that. They left just before CNY, so I doubt it's considered!

Anyway, here's a picture of my nephew and I! Handsome fella!


He's older than me by a year but in terms of those family level, I'm a generation higher. He's really awesome with cameras! Didn't manage to meet my crazy cousin this time round, a.k.a. his mum but looking forward to meeting her soon! Met my other cousin and her family. Her sons are damn cute! I'm super envious of their long lashes and gosh, they look just like Chicken Little! Not exactly the finest compliment but they really do!

Can't wait till the next big reunion again!

Besides reuniting with my relatives, I've been slightly busier with the Youth Fellowship this time round. And I'm glad to say that we are growing more and more each day. The kids are taking up more responsibility and soon, I won't be able to call them my kids anymore. Kinda of sad.

But yea, last Friday, we had our 1st youth fellowship for this year and it was a blast! I felt that the gap between the senior and junior youths are slowly closing and this is a start! A start for us to get to know each other better!
I love God and I really want to thank Him for giving me such a wonderful family. Giving me extra siblings since I was a kid and now, giving all of us younger siblings!

Some crazy things Joy started, we continued and ended off with her.





Besides school, driving and church, I have my own fangirl stuff! Been watching a new anime, Inu X Boku SS. Not bad, reminds me of Kaichou!

Hahaha! Soushi is <3!~

Oh! And the trailer for Kenshin live-action movie is out!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=HPc-XJEDYjw

Can't wait!

And speaking of live-action and fangirl stuff, I can't wait for Bu Bu Jing Xin sequel to start filming this August! Ahh~ Hopefully we get to see snippets of what's going on in the filming! But first, I think I can get my drama fix from LSS's new drama, Da Mo Yao. Also written by Tong Hua and from the pictures that's been posted so far, 2 words - Looking Good!


Sometimes, it kinda of upsets me about how people rave about BBJX after it aired on Channel 8. Then again, it's just me. I just kinda of feel that the show is 'violated' in some ways. Can't really explain it but I guess is the over-craziness of the drama fan in me.

Alright, I don't think I have anything much left to update. I think I do need to take time out during my holidays to sort out photos and blog about some notable events. Like my 21st birthday (hopefully it won't be a 1 year delayed post), my China trip, etc.

OHHHH!

Speaking of trips! I've booked my tickets for Bangkok in July! Yes! I'm going there! Shopping Mission: Buy 100 pieces of items! I'm not kidding! Really. I'm planning to go with an empty luggage. Not going to bring any clothes except for the outfit that I'm wearing there. Hahaha! Gonna go there for around a week with Xin Lei. Might be joined halfway by Xin Ru & Xin Yi! It's gonna be so awesome! Jasmine Ang & her boyf are flying up too! Oh yea!~ Shopping timeeee!

I'm curbing almost all of my shopping now just for the July trip!

Okay, I shall go let myself get crazy over Bangkok for tonight and start preparing my assignments tomorrow. If you have any good tips about Bangkok, please let me know. Like how to bargain, how to not get scammed (especially by cabs), or what are the must-go places in Bangkok! Tweet, email, comment or anything!

Bangkok, bangkok~

Internet.. Freedom of Speech?

Is internet really an outlet for us to express our feelings?


With all these new networking sites, we should have even more opportunities to exercise our freedom of speech. But is it really true?

Let's take FaceBook for example.

How many times have you 'Ignored' or limit your profile to certain people, like say; your colleagues, boss, classmates or family?

Maybe not profile but more of posts and photos?

I know I did.

This subject has been nagging me for quite some time and yesterday, I felt like blogging again 'cos of this.

I guess I should clarify, I'm a supporter of these networking sites. I used to use Twitter but currently I've stopped and is mainly on FaceBook(duh), Tumblr and, of course, Blogger. The main reason why I stopped using Twitter was that I did not want people to know every little action I did or where to find me. I used to be a fervent updater of statuses on FaceBook along with Twitter but over the past year, I've gradually stopped. (Tadaa! That explains the lack of updates about me! Mysteryyyy~~~)

So, what sparked off this post?

Well, I had a rather heated debate recently and seeing how bad my temper still is, I needed a place to vent and after going through the list of places I could, I realise, DANG IT! I can't post it on FaceBook or the person I'm 'bitching' about will see it and it's gonna be awkward whenever we see each other, much less work together. Even if I use 'secret coding' for my posts, people might put 2 and 2 together and spread it to them and that gets EVEN more awkward.


I used to have the notion that as long as you're right, you are free to say whatever you want. Express your feelings! Ignore the rest!


Maybe I'm not all that experienced in life, but after peeping into the working world and all, I realise that that is not a way for survival. Sometimes, you gotta keep peace for the sake of family, friends and yourself. It never hurts to have more bridges. 'Destroying' relationships might be harmful, you never know when you might meet that person's help.

Superficial, materialistic but isn't that true? Isn't that what we do best? Otherwise, why would we put on countless masks when interacting with others.

Alright, seems like I've digressed a little. Back to FaceBook.

So if we do not wish for certain people to see our posts, it would seem simple to just delete them. Save us all the trouble! But nowadays, the 'Friend' status on FaceBook seems to be akin to a friend status in real life. Deleting them off on FaceBook would be indirectly saying, "I do not wish to have you as my friend, not just in FaceBook but in my life too." Andddddd, that will just cause awkwardness and resentment.

Especially for the workplace! What do you do when your colleagues or even worse, your supervisors, add you on FaceBook or started following you on Twitter? Accept their friend request(Hey, they want to be friends with you!) or ignore them? Sometimes, I'm hesitant to accept colleagues on FaceBook as I do not want them to know what I do on my own free time. And I certainly do not really want to know whether my boss enjoys his date at the beach or so. Seems kinda of disturbing. I mean.


But if your boss looks anything like this, then it's a different story!


And if you are upset at some stuff at work, you can't really rant about it on your posts. Can you imagine your boss 'Liking' your post about how horrible your colleague is? -AWKWARD-


Also! Whatever you post online, be it blogposts, twitter updates or FaceBook posts, you might forget about what the content is after a few months, but the internet NEVER forgets! People can always backtrack to your history, especially with the new FaceBook Timeline. =.=

There, I've given most of the bad points about the lack of freedom of speech online. Of course there are good things about networking sites. I've killed off countless of hours laughing on Tumblr, reading blogs and writing personal blog entries. All I'm saying is that, before we can churn out a ranting post, think. Think about the consquences that will befall upon you or others. Your posts normally reflect who you are or more likely, people's perceptions of you as a person. If you tend to have lots of discriminating posts, well, what do you think that says about you? As your internet networking grows, your freedom of speech will start of shrink.

'With great power comes great responsibilty.'

Alright, that was lame. Hahahahaha!

Maybe this post is irrelevant to you because you are all that open and stuff, but well, this post is relevant to me and how I see stuff now! So if you disagree, so be it. I'm not forcing my ideas on you!

1st post of 2012 and after 6 months. Seems kinda of heavy. Oh well, anyway, here's wishing you people a belated MERRY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

How I want to live my life lies with me. Don't expect me to change just 'cos you don't agree with the way I do things. Life is short, instead of trying to think of ways to please others, I rather spend it on living my life to the maximum!

I need to wrap myself with events, to keep my mind off certain things. When I'm alone, I can't help thinking how useless I am and all. Without asking, I'm being blamed. What's the point. If people don't wish to ask, I won't wish to explain.

It's times like this where I feel that being single, being alone is so much better off. When can I find a soulmate? A person who I can talk to about anything and everything? God, I know you will listen to me, maybe its a sign that I should be alone after all? Maybe, maybe that's your plan for me.

Can it get any deeper?

Sometimes I feel like I'm falling deep down a dark tunnel..

Then, just when I thought life couldn't get any worse, I had to take a step and plummet further down..

I know life is full of ups and downs, and when your life has reach a trough, there is no other way for it to go besides upwards.

But what if it just stops there? Like, just stops and stays there? Would you require someone to pull you up?

I guess this is why God made us in a pair. For us to lend each other a helping hand. To pull each other up when we know the person can do so much more than what he/she sees in his/her life.

I longed to reach for those hands to pull me up. They used to be so far away but now, I can't see them anymore. Have I fallen in so deeply that I can't see any light?

I feel like I'm surrounded by a pit of darkness. Maybe it's for the better that I can't grasp any hands, or they might join me in this darkness. Pulled down by me.

What is life without birth, relationships, quarrels, accidents and death?

Things we lose have a way of coming back to us in the end, if not always in the way we expect. - J.K. Rowling

It has been a helluva week.

Quarrels, accidents, deaths. It feels like there are only bad news going around now. I guess I should consider myself fortunate as none of these actually happened to me but then, one can't take mirth in it when your close friends are the ones involved in it.

Death of a loss one. I've been through twice last year when both of my grandmothers passed away. Though we never had the relationship that is often shown in books and envied by many, but I did miss her a lot when she left. Attending a funeral tonight, though I may not know him personally but I do know his family and they are hurting a lot. A sudden death is normally the hardest to accept. No one expected it. Especially not on his birthday. What was supposed to be a night of celebration turned out to be one full of grieving and despair.

Accidents.
I'm a firm believer that nothing happens without a reason. Nothing is just pure coincidence. Fate and destiny are things we can't change in our life. Brings about my life motto:

What is yours is yours. What's not yours, no matter how hard you try, it will never be.

But then, I'm not saying we should just do things recklessly and get ourselves killed out there. Still, we gotta try to protect and prevent unwanted things from happening. Thus I implore each and everyone of us to cherish our own lives and take good care of it. We only have one life. One life to live to the fullest. Would you be satisfied if you die within the next minute? I know I won't be. This thought came about from hearing the death of the person above along with a friend's motorbike accident. Gave me quite a scare and I really hope he recuperates fine. Gonna shake some sense into him when I see him the next time. Stupid chicken!

Quarrels are part and parcel of our lives 'cos there are no two identical persons in the world. So there definitely will be differences in views. The differences in us are not what hinders us apart from others but allow us to learn more about the world through them. There is only so much we can see. But by seeing things from another perspective will open our eyes to countless things.

What we see depends mainly on what we look for.

We all have different priorities in life, thus we see different things. In the end, it's about compromising and learning with each other. We can never finish learning about a person because we are unfathomable creatures.

Of course, not all news are unhappy news. In the midst of these gloomy days, there are a few happy celebrations that passed and others that are coming!

For example, we celebrated Sarah's 21st yesterday at her house with a really INTERESTING theme. Did not take much photos but will blog about it later on. I'm currently still waiting for photos from my 21st! There's also the final movie of Harry Potter, coming out this Thursday which I'm gonna watch in 3D with Leen! Like finally! Been a long time since I've met up with her! I've heard awesome reviews regarding the film since the premiere which took place last week. Can't wait for it!

Well, yes. I'm trying to end off on a happier note. Will be back to blog again soon and hopefully it will start and end on happy events!

Just to bring the festive mood of Harry Potter to all of us!


See ya! Don't miss moi~

Adulthood..

That is a way foreign term to me.

Whenever I think of adulthood or adults in a manner, I picture old men and women in their 30s, 40s, 50s.. oh ya, 50s would be classified under ancient I guess. I guess when I welcome my 20th birthday last year, my time as a willful teenager would soon be gone. Well, technically I'm still considered a youth as the age limit for that is till 35 years old. Hah!

This year was unlike the past few years where I will emo and do up a reflection post just before my birthday. I didn't forget about it. Was planning to do it all along but there were just so many things to settle on the eve of transcension. Kinda of glad of it. It's tiring to just think through your life and grimace at all those silly and idiotic things you did in your life. Of course, not all that I did were bad, there were moments where I wished I had videotaped them down just to keep them replaying in my mind. Moments where I felt so happy, feelings that were expressed and relationships that I have lost and found. Through the course of life, there were many choices of paths given to me at different points of time in my life. I could have taken any of them, but the ones I chose were the ones that led me to where I am and who I am now. I'm not proud of all that I've done. I'm human and I make mistakes though it is not an excuse for me to continue making them. But since this is life and it goes on, no point for me to harp and think 'What if I chose that other path?'. There's absolutely no point in that because in the end, you'll never know. Simply because you can't turn back and undo the things you've done. This is reality, not some fantasy where you have a time-turner like Hermione Granger and use it to go back in time.

The only thing I can do after choosing my path is to persevere in it. Be it an easy path or one fraught with difficulties, I chose it. I gotta go on with it. Saying it sounds way easier than executing it out in real life. There are times where I just feel like giving up. When I feel that the end or what I'm pursuing are not worth overcoming the obstacles coming my way. Though I love to say that there is always someone who urges me not to give up and pulled me through all those times, I can't. I mean, I know that God is always there for me, but there are also times where I know he let it happened to me, so as to make me stronger through the tribulations he gave.

God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability - 1 Corinthians 10:13

I recently mentioned this verse to Jovan but it just seems hard to continue believing in it at times. There are indeed times where I gave up. Not proud of it but since it's done, learn the lesson and move on. Of course there are people in my life who did pull me up and straighten me. To them, I'm utterly grateful. Sometimes, they might not know the effect of their actions in my life, my choices but I know and for that, gratitude is one of the things I can give them.

As this blog is so aptly named, The Ups & Downs of jO. There are always moments that made us cherish life and times where we just want to give up. I do hope that there is more of the former for all of us but who am I kidding? Hahaha! Not being cynical but it's life.

Life is just like a box of chocolates you will never know what you will get. - Forrest Gump

Even if you get a type of chocolate that you really dislike, it won't deter you from trying again. Unless you hate chocolates. Well, I know I don't.

Every year, every month , every week, every day causes a turn in my life. Sometimes the turns are bigger, sometimes they seem trivial. Turns that are bigger normally have to do with relationships while turns that seem trivial might be anything! A new acquaintance you meet today might turn out to be a very important person to you in the future. You never know. Life is full of surprises. Some people might hate surprises as they do not know what to expect while others relish it. I'm of the latter. Be it good or bad surprises, it's definitely a change to my life. Well, I'm a person who can't stand a mundane lifestyle so it might be refreshing for me. =D

This part is what I've been contemplating about.. a lot. The past year has been one that sent me crashing. I took a path, turning away from some people. Certain choices were made and consequences were what I had to face. In the end, it was my choice. My 20th year wasn't a pretty one. Truthfully speaking, starting out as a freshman in SMU was one of my struggles. I knew no one and I had no one. People seemed different there and unknowingly, I pushed people with my 'aura' I guess. With my way of dressing, thinking and actions, I felt like a misfit. Thank goodness, I still managed to meet some really awesome people and made some friends.But I took a wrong step. And things collapsed. Not the way I want things to turn out but can't say I didn't expect it. Though in my heart, I wished it was not this way. But what's done is done, no matter how it is, I can't forget my memories and I don't wish to as they are what formed the person I am today. As I always seem to have a nostalgic streak in me, there are definitely times where I would mull over my life, with a smile on my face.

Last Sunday, I bade farewell to my 20th self and welcomed 21st and adulthood with open arms. As much as I wished to say I've matured overnight on my birthday, we all know it's bullshit. Hahaha! Though acknowledging it is the first step to it. I do hope that my life as a 21st year old will be one full of bitter chocolates for me. (Bitter is the opposite for me. I adore bitter chocolate. So it means I want sweetness for my life ok?) One where I will discover more about myself again. I find that I'm losing myself in the past year. Somehow, I got reminded by old friends in regards to that. Gotta find the crazy, fiery & blunt person that has hidden in me for some time. The person that people used to look up too and had crazy fun. Though I guess I have to tone down on the craziness. Hahaha! I know this post seems emo but it's just an annual post. Once a year~ =D

Year 20 might seem like a dreadful year for me and making me seem contemptuous of life but it isn't so. There were definitely high moments last year and it is one that I've learned several valuable lessons of. One of which is to give all my friends a chance no matter how bad things seem. Note: Friends, not just anyone. I mean if I consider you as my friend, I'll definitely do this. Otherwise, there will always be this nagging thought deep down in my mind. Friends listen and don't judge, no matter what happened. Even if they judge, at least they gave it a chance. I've learned how important that is for me thus I'm hoping to be there for my own friends if they need me.

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you

With an ending note, I'm thoroughly grateful for all the friends I have. Some that were reminded to me through my past year and some that I've just known.

So this is the end of jO's reflection of her year 20. Emo and slightly longer than usual but then again, writing and blogging is a way for me to express. I promise happier posts will be out soon. Especially posts about my 21st celebration! =D

P.S. Thanks for all the wishes that I've gotten on my 21st and also the people who made that night an awesome and memorable one!

THANK YOU!

When the night falls, loneliness comes knocking..

Nobody really cares if you’re miserable, so you might as well be happy.

All I Want...

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth my birthday is....


I really have no idea.

Yes, truly.

Normally I would be looking forward to my gifts. However this year, I can't seem to think of anything I really want. No matter how hard I think, nothing seems to come to mind.

Many have been asking me what would I like to get and the 1st time I was faced with that question, I froze. I really had no idea what I would like this year.



What's different this year is that I'm able to celebrate my birthday with most of my friends. Friends from different cliques who all gave me special and unique memories. Memories that I will forever cherish. Knowing that they are able to make it for this special day makes me really happy. I'm glad that they are taking time to come down and it will also be a time where we can catch up with each other too. Looking so damn forward to that day! XDD

As said in previous posts, been doing up the preparations for my celebration and glad to say it's almost done.

Caterers - Checked!
Cake - Checked!
Dress - Checked!
(Thanks Jon for accompanying me to shop. I know it's torture to you. Heex)
Games - Checked!
(Yay! Thanks to Nicky & Denise for their rockband & Wii! :D)

All I'm left is to do/design the guest book (OH! The horror of me designing it! Gasp!), some decorations and loads of balloons!! XD

Anyway, thinking through, I kinda of know what I really want but I guess I'll get it on my own with any spare money from my salary. Yeaps, I have already decided how I'm gonna spend my salary. Not shopping, but on activities that I've wanted to try! Planning to go for diving and horseback riding this coming semester and I have kaki to go along! Wheee! Finally going to go sign up for them this year.

Oh yea, back to the topic.

I'm hoping to change my camera. Had this old camera for around 4 years? I think. Bought it from my Dad when he got his new camera so I guess it's almost time for me to change a new one. Been grumbling about my sucky camera for a year but never had the cash to change it. Maybe my salary would allow me to finally get it done. XD Hopefully a Lumix. Saw Sean's Lumix last year when we were on our Vietnam trip and it was really nice. Dang! Am so jealous. Hahaha!

Though I guess if I can't get the camera, I'll settle for my charm bracelet. DIY! Planning to go to Arab street and buy the different charms from there! Got my eyes on a few for quite some time so I shall go down 1 day to get it done. That's if if I'm not lazy. =p

Anyway, that's about all I guess. Oh, left out my Mom. Though she gets on my nerves most of the times but she's always making me laugh. Not just at her silly-ness and actions, but also how I'm always on her mind. She went to KL for a short trip recently and while going on a mad shopping spree, she spotted some kind of eyelash treatment that supposedly makes your eyelash grow much longer. So she called back immediately asking if I want and that it's really nice. For a woman who had little interest in makeup, ok, practically no makeup at all, it's warming to see her keeping a look out for things that I like.

In the end, she said she'll buy it as a present to me and when I asked her are there instructions, she said that she's unsure but to make sure I know how to use it, she'll ask the sales lady for a video demonstration. Upon hearing that, I burst into laughter thinking of the predicament that sales lady must be in. Hahahahaha!

Okay, guess that's about all and once again I'm blogging live in my office, thus no pictures 'cept for the ones I took from Google!

1 more day till Friday & it's the weekends! :D

Guilty as charged~

Yes, I know I said I'll be updating soon.. so here I am, surrendering myself.

Guilty as charged!

I guess my updates will be coming up soon. Hopefully. Maybe I'll set it as my birthday resolution for this year? XDD

Anyway, have been really busy these past weeks, between work, gaming, friends, gaming, family and gaming. Hahahaha!

So many places I'm dying to go for the summer, so many things I wanna do but without $$$ [kaching], I'm stuck to my office chair~

Nonetheless, I still have some bishies to keep me company~

Tadaaaaaa:
Hazuki Kei!



He's absolutely loveeee!


Yeaps, I'm playing Tokimeki again~ Stopped for quite some time before I continued. Replaying now to try to get my happy ending with him. Think it's working. XDD

And look at the child version of him! Cute to the max!

When I 1st heard his voice, I knew the seiyuu was the one that voiced Momiji in Furuba~

Seriously, all of Hazuki's scenes are full of blush moments and it's making me fangirl~ I had to keep in mind where I am when I'm playing. Wouldn't want people to think I'm crazy or so.. especially since I often play on the MRT.

There are many more guys in the game which I've yet to explore or fall in love with them. Update more next time!

Recently, I've been catching up on my manga and Gakuen Alice never fails to make me tear.

It's the last arc now and every chapter I read, I'll just cry. Sobs. But it's good. Can't wait to know the ending. Endings are always bittersweet, don't you think. You can't wait to know how it ends, but when it ends, you wish it hadn't. That's how I've always felt. Especially when Ouran ended~

OH OH OH! Speaking of Ouran, I totally can't wait for this July!!!!


Guess what? Ouran is finally gonna be a live action series!

*jumps in joy*

WHEEEE! I'm going to glue myself to subbing sites and wait for the latest release. Finally, after 3 years, the live action is coming out! Seems like there is a change of cast. Horikita Maki is not Haruhi. Damn~ Was looking forward to her playing. But oh wells~ I hope the drama will do justic to the anime. XDD


Anime anime~

Does anyone have any good anime to introduce? Haven't been catching up on the new titles that are out. Lemme know yea? Formspring, comment, anything. Gonna take down that stupid tagboard since it's full of spam. Sheesh~

Oh, just remembered another awesome piece of news! Harry Potter 7 Part 2 is coming out in JULY! July is gonna be an awesome month! I managed to catch the trailer on the big screen when I was watching Kung Fu Panda 2 with Eugene, Hui Ying & Jon. I was literally fangirling then~ Can't wait to see it! In the trailer, there was a glimpse of Snape's past. I can tell I'm gonna tear at that part. Shan't say anything else in case there are people who have yet to read the book!

My 2 favourite characters~

Enough of my fandom & all~

Been trying to settle the stuff for my 21st Birthday Celebration. Ahhh!~ I think I'm seriously stumped. I have no idea what type of cake to order and where to order it from. Any suggestions? Should I get a normal cake with quirky designs or should I get a 2-tier? And also catering! I've not checked out the menus that I have in my hand. I don't even have to start ranting on how I've yet to think of the decorations.

Poof, I'm pooped.

So if you guys have any suggestions on cakes or decorations do let me know? I'm going to need all the help I can get. Eeeks!

Okie! I shall end of here. I will really get into my head to start blogging again. Like I said in my previous post, I have loads of old old posts stuck here. =p

Tata for now! XD
