Owes

My brother introduced me to a young girl's blog. Apparently she's causing a drama up on facebook but then again I don't have a facebook account so....yeah. Out of curiosity (and that I have an attention span as long as a baby beetle when it comes to completing my finance assignment haiz), I checked out her blog.

The horror of the twit language the younger..kids are coming up with nowadays.

"why happiness owes far from me??"
- a blog post heading of hers

Took me awhile to realize it too.

Owes = Always

WTF
WTF
WTF
WTF

Unbelievable.

Sick

Okay rather pointless but I just feel the need to type something in this space.

Nothing's been up recently. Life's pretty boring with school
Ha ha. We were also being extremely twin-ny throughout. We (almost) bought the same shoes. We both bought the same pants (same colour too). And we both bought watches. So lovey dovey ikr.

Oh and also, have you ever looked forward to something so so soooo very much that as the date inches nearer you start to feel...anxiety and nervousness and a tinge of dread almost. I'm not too sure if it's driven by the fear of it not living up to my expectations or whatever. Hmmm.

And on another side note, 我不想要一个很现实的友情。我们的年龄也不小了。说老实话，我实在很没有心情去挽回一段大家都曾经很尽力去挽救的友情。说我狠心也好，说我不顾往日的情分也好，但是我知道大家都挣扎了很久，才做出现在的选择。

什么是很现实的友情？
就是有事的时候找你，没事的时候就把你丢在一旁。

我不想，也没有多余的精神投资在一个很现实的友情。
人，也只能原谅另外一个人N次。
不重要的人，就更加少过N次了。

哎。

Damn

Wei shen me wei shen me wei shen me wei shen me?

Things always turn out...drastically different from what I made them up to be in my brain and now I feel terribly foolish to even let myself run with that idea as far as I did. I don't believe in erasing things I've done but I'm damn good at pretending I didn't do it. So... I'm going to pretend that I've never let my thoughts gone as ridiculously out of track as they did.

Did.

Damn reality hits hard after having a whole night of sugar rush.

Aziatix

How mad sexy and gorgeous is Eddie Shin??? And his vocals is just like. Mad sick.

I've never been a fan of guys with silky long tresses but damn. I might just have a crush on a dude in my accounting class because of Eddie lah (dude's got long tresses too. Not so sure about it being silky though. Ha ha.)

Long sexy flowing tresses \m/

Office Girls Part 2

Just a short post. I'm addicted to this show and.......I MAD HATE THIS CHARACTER. ZHENG KAI ER. Walau she super scheming and cunning and evil please!!!111!!!

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

P.S/ Ah Lee if you are seeing this show, TEXT ME PLEASE. I need someone to gossip the show with leh!!!!!

P.P.S/ Everyone else please go and watch the show leh!!!!!!! PEI WO!!! :( I'm at episode 9 going 10 still can CATCH UP! :)

Immortals

Whoa another week has passed. Another hectic, hectic, very hectic week. (Officially on the 1 month countdown of my Korea trip!!!!!)

Monday- School/Give tuition
Tuesday- Mugged the whole day
Wednesday- School/Give tuition
Thursday- School
Friday- Packed my room
Saturday- Work + Movie after work

Never gonna catch another movie after a full day of helping small kids try on uniforms and counting stocks amidst dust bugs spiders and other insects. Tired like fuck man.

Okay actually Saturday wasn't as bad as last week's, much of my fatigue can be attributed to me packing my room and doing a mini revamp to my table, shelves and dresser.

Ha ha. My room is really in a ridiculously disgusting state for a girl man. My JC notes are covered in a thick layer of dust, yellowing papers dated back when I was Primary 1, rubber bands that have melted, rusty paper clips, files strewed all over the floor, jeans that have not been wash after n amount of times, towels everywhere...

I'm surprised that I took only one day to clear my room! :) One long arduous day no doubt.

Accomplishments: I can finally see the surface of my desk and the bottom of my floor.

:) Oh on a side note, everyone should go watch Immortals. I had my doubts regarding like...ancient Greek mythology related things mostly because I am not interested. And like 300 B.C fighting scenes...sounds a bit lame.

I WAS WRONG. Damn. Immortals is super epic.



Okay no is was mostly because Henry Cavill is damn fucking hot and I was making sounds of appreciation like "Whoaaaaaaa" "Hmpfffffffssssst" whenever he was topless.

Which was actually most of the show.

Ha ha ha G elbowed me like at least 3 times accompanied with "Meishan eh you enough already ah!"

Okay! This is all. Gonna enjoy the last few hours of my Sunday sob sob weekends always end so quickly :( :( :(

Office Girls

Am currently addicted to this taiwan drama called 小資女孩向前衝 (Office Girls). Fucking hilarious! And well......maybe because 邱澤 is the main male lead and I saw a snippet of the show's trailer last night and he's damn handsome...? He he he.

Sidetracking, I didn't realize that 邱澤's the same actor who acted in 福氣又安康! The motorcycle riding gangster with the braids and all. I had a major crush on that character lor!!! Good looking gangsters are kinda my...weakness.

Cui right I know. Ha ha.

Okay just in case there are doubts about 邱澤 being handsome, I swear he really is. REALLY. I've got pictures to prove!!!!! *defensive*

HANDSOME RIGHT.

Ha ha. Okay I shall return back to watching 小資女孩向前衝. There's this manager character of the sales department who's damnnnn funny.

"Let me see see!"

HA HA HA HA HA

Success

My school's newsletter editor has such humor. Really.

Here's the greeting for their online newsletter subscription (I did not subscribe, but I reckon they are wanting me to). Oh, btw, they call this online thingy inter@ctive. Not quite sure why they used @ instead of a.

Dear Mei Shan,

Be part of our inner circle of success. Renew your 2012 Membership and enjoy attractive renewal gifts!

LOL INNER CIRCLE OF SUCCESS.

I need to start incorporating this phrase into my daily conversations. Makes my social status level up like 1000 times over.

That's all for now. I need to return to my inner circle of success.

HA HA HA HA HA.
xx

Do Ya

Ha ha ha ha this is soOoOooOoo true.

The first time I've ever read a lot more into a song than I should have did at that time was.....Do ya by McFly.

I MEAN C'MON. The lyrics went like...

Do ya do ya do ya love me
Do ya need a little time?
Do ya do ya do ya want me
Oh to hold you when you cry

Do ya do ya do ya do ya love me
Don't want to hear you say maybe
Won't you tell me do you love me?
Coz I wanna know

Right? Right. Lol.

So of course it was indeed me reading too much into the song recommended to me cause it fizzled into a pool of friend zone nothingness. Ha ha. Guess this doesn't just happen to me yeah can I get a whut whuuut *raises hands to the roof action smchkthingy*

Can you tell I'm bored?

Unlucky

Oh ya and I forgot to mention how extremely unlucky I've been, it's not even funny. I'm not talking about like an unlucky day or something (I could deal with that), but it's like a series of unfortunate and totally ridiculous events that are being spread out throughout days :(

1) My laptop's adapter died. Like out of no where it died. I was still using it the previous night please!!

2) I mysteriously lost my EZ-link card. Okay to give myself credit this is the first adult version I lost. Ha ha the previous 3/4 times were all student versions. WHICH IS WHY :( Cause you cannot get back the money from the lost card if it's the adult one.

3) My dad spilled soy bean on my ipod and then decided to give it a quick wash under running water. Why he did that still baffles me till now. I didn't even get angry or anything. Too depressed for words.

4) I feel a sore throat coming up.

:(

GOOD LUCK WHERE ARE YOU?

Perhaps a good laugh over funny pictures (I've developed a habit of saving them ha ha very loser I know) would do me some good.

(P.S/ Halfway through this post a baby lizard decides to come round and say hi. Weiwei, the lizard 向你问好 leh. Lol.)

Leave before the lights come on

Quick meet up with Pei on Friday cause I needed to compare winter coats (to make sure I wouldn't freeze to death there).

I skillfully hid my squeals of anticipation and wondrous fantasies of Korea but deep down inside I was doing my secret delirious-looking happy dance. Which kinda looks like a hybrid of the running man on steroids and the maori haka. Lol. MAD EXCITED I CANNOT WAIT.

Decided to pop by Galindo's birthday chalet cause we were nearby and were greeted with a scene of...party boys trying to dunk G into the big green trash bin thingy. Ha ha. I think boys will never grow out of trying to throw the birthday boy into the rubbish bin and tao pok-ing. And gushing about how sexy Hyuna's bubble pop MV is. Lol.

To be honest, I would have stayed till the wee hours of the morning that night if wasn't for my schedule the next day. Haven't had so much fun in such a long time, it almost surprises me how this night is spent with a bunch of people I knew for less than 3 hours.

Highlights of the night have to be A's very very determined attempt at dancing to Hyuna's bubble pop, B and I escaping a very epic dare because of our fast reflexes, and...watching the very epic dare of J/G dry humping a tree.

And not to forget stone reminiscing his secondary one moments of sitting beside me and Fadli. The shoelaces tied to chair leg incident is just too funny. Ha ha ha ha.

Oh and a one liner I couldn't get out of my head since that night, "I swear to all the Gods. I swear to all the Gods in the Hindu religion.", in a desperate attempt to convince someone to change his card in a game of Indian poker.

Ha ha ha ha ha.

Time has passed by so quickly, I couldn't even remember when was the last time a big bunch of people our age (I cannot think of an appropriate term to address us. What's in between teens and adults?) could gather around, have a good time, and the whole night was alcohol free.

Twas truly a very very enjoyable night. :)

Maybe because it was with a whole bunch of people I didn't knew, hence it was like a "Heck it it's only for tonight anyway" moment. Hmm, maybe.

Quick, let's leave, before the lights come on,
'Cos then you don't have to see,
'Cos then you don't have to see,
What you've done,

Girls

Girls will be girls. Whenever we have problems bugging our minds or have matters weighing our hearts down, we'd find our girlfriends or a close friend to talk it out. Ask for advice or just ranting aimlessly, knowing that someone is there to listen and someone gives a shit about it. But my ego's standing in the way and I'm just too damn prideful to let my guard down and approach anyone first. I don't know how to start talking about it, how to express it, how to draw illustrations and give examples or how to explain it. So even if I'd really want to talk about it, I have no idea how to. Still keeping up? Ha ha. Every time I even attempt to talk about what's bugging me..I kinda just slip away halfway and drop the conversation cause it's so taxing to explain. Every problem I mention kinda just...fizzles away into nothingness. As in nothing else is mentioned in the conversation anymore. HAIYA. Kinda like now. Cause I don't know how to continue this rant-post.

Pride and ego. Damn.

Monotone

Life has been so monotonous it's festering into an illness within me. Serious. It's like I get so frustrated with every single damn thing and then for that few moments when I am with company, I snap out of that funk. But once it's late and I'm alone....damn I get frustrated alllll over again.

Maybe it's just a monthly phase that I go through. Ha ha. Cannot fucking wait for the Korea trip man. Serious berious. (Oh and sidetracking winter clothes' prices are through the damn roof. So damn expensive my goodness.)

So in a desperate attempt to make myself feel better... I went to surf for funny videos and photos. Like I was fo' real searching "Funny commercials" on youtube. Lol.

^ You'll understand this if you watch too much Jersey Shore. Ha ha. Ya la ya la I'm guilty of that.

^ HA HA HA HA this is the best man. Really really cracked me up.

Here's to my mood getting better and to a better week ahead at school. Hope no one's being a bitch about anything and that my thoughts are kept on track.

Chased

Airport's coffee bean very 没有人情味。

Me and huihui were gone for lunch and then when we came back, (to our horror) our seats were occupied by some random couple and our bags were no where to be found.

Turns out they decided to pack whatever there was on our table, put it in a basket, and clear the table for other people to sit :(

(Okay lah granted we left for lunch for >1 hour... Lol. I guess we kinda had it coming for us.)

Me: *Picking up our stuff from the basket*
Hui: Aiya just take the whole basket away only. Since they chase us out.

HA HA HA HA major hilarious please. Imagine if we really took the basket away. Actually, it wasn't even a proper basket. It was more like a plastic crate for them to store cartons of milk or what not.

LIBRARY, Y YOU NO OPEN TODAY????

:(

Jensen

Am watching Supernatural for a couple of days now. Plot's amazing and it doesn't hurt that the main characters are gob-smacking-ly good looking. Especially Dean Winchester (played by Jensen Ackles). Nothing sexier than 2 good looking dudes hunting after demons and monsters and doing a kick-ass job at it huh. Ha ha.

And c'mon his twitter's self-intro thingy says "Actor from Supernatural and Happily married". Swoon please so romantic.

Oh ya side note. In the show he looks kinda..short beside Sam Winchester (played by Jared Padalecki). I was curious about how tall he is so I went to google his height. Turns out, he's not short at all. Ha ha.

Jared's just way too freaking tall. So..Jensen = 183cm and Jared = 193cm. No wonder. Would be amazing if my boyfriend were to be so tall! Like instant swoon please the height.

Okay back to Supernatural marathon. And Gangland too. I wonder how long my weird taste in shows is gonna last.

Oh and am heading up to Jurong East tomorrow. Fingers crossed I won't get lost. xx

Caffine

I just enjoyed an all-night marathon of Gangland (what's new), MBLAQ's funny moments (really fucking hilarious my cheeks are sore from laughing), and other random videos.

Xian zai yi jing shi liu dian le.

Who wanna help me take over and teach tuition this afternoon? Confirm tired as fuck.

Need. To. Stop. Drinking. Coffee. During. Evening.

Slip trippin

Super embarrassing moment on the bus when I was on my way home.

I kinda slip-tripped my way down the mini flight of stairs on the bus. It was 11.40pm and the bus was fucking quiet and my instant reaction to my slip-trip was "OH MUMMY. *pause* Shit."

And then the traffic light decided to turn red while I soak in all the stares and awkward silence smothered in embarrassment while trying to look like cool. Slip-trip? What slip-trip you talking bout?

Lol I managed to maintain my cool without further embarrassing myself before I got off. Longest 40 seconds of my life.

Pitbull

I AM ON A SEARCH. I was watching some youtube video about pitbull (the rapper)....and then I thought about something I've never seen.

PITBULL WITH HAIR.

Like hair-hair. Not his shorter than crew cut whose hairstyle name escapes me at the moment. Like with a full head of hair a la

(Yes this photo was chosen intentionally for my liking)

I tried googling "pitbull with hair" but other than normal photos of pitbull (without hair), the rest were all...well, pitbulls (the dog breed).

So if you happen to chance upon a photo of pitbull with hair longer than

this, tell me okay?

I am honestly curious about how he looks with a head full of hair. Honest monest.

Braindead

I really shouldn't drink coffee past 5pm. Man I'm still awake.

Weird thoughts running through my brain right now.
1) I want to wear a dress. Just cause it would be just 1 garment I have to decide on instead of a couple of garments.
2) But I will feel very exposed in dresses leh. Especially with my automatic sitting position. Ha ha.
3) I think I would consider wearing them to school once I find a decent piece.
4) I am really very awake now. Luckily my lesson is 330pm tomorrow.
5) Should I continue with tuition lessons tomorrow? But I'll have to start on Sec 2 stuff leh. Dreading.
6) I am planning my Korea trip's outfits. Ha ha ha I know I super kiasu. (My trip's in Dec btw) BUT I CANNOT WAIT SIAL. SUPER EXCITED.
7) My brain is not functioning now despite my lethargy.
8) Laptop's left with <5% batt life. Thank you laptop for lasting till I finish this post.

Wallaby

Skipped lessons for the day just to send belly off at the airport. SAF really very rich, India for _weeks and then Australia for 6 weeks in a year. Like what weiwei said “当兵当到可以一直出国很好命leh.”

Ha ha I agree. So belly, you should feel better about your trip okay. Don’t sulk in front of hot ang moh girls. Not attractive.

The decision to skip lessons was rather abrupt too, considering that I only got the news of him flying off today on Sunday.

Pres: You know that Abel flying off tmr?
Me: WHAT? I don’t know.
Pres: You suck.

Ha ha failure as a friend on my part.

And then the day morphed into a very random and spontaneous one.

I was texting ger about something when she asked if I wanted to head over to her house after sending belly off. And so I went and spent a very warm and humid afternoon at her place. (Weather’s fucking erratic nowadays I swear.) Slacked till around 5pm when weiwei called “Tonight you free?” Ha ha. And then my evening was spent at the airport studying till 11.50pm.

Spontaneous right? I like spontaneity amongst close friends.

The 6 weeks long gap without belly didn’t really sink into me up till now. 6 weeks is gonna be a long time, no wonder the boy’s sulking all the way till moments before he stepped into the departure hall. As usual, hugs were given and goodbyes were said.

Bel: I’ll see you guys in 6 weeks k. Don’t miss me too much. Gah.
Me: Very fast can come home alr lah. Don’t worry too much okay. Love you a lot a lot!
Bel: 6 weeks leh. Haha okay love you too I lazy to make the heart ok. (<< Y LIKE THIS ONE)
Me: Fast one really. Go there see hot ang moh girls then time will pass faster than you think it would.
Bel: No let the ang moh girls see me. :)
Me: Haha let them get lucky for 6 weeks :)

Ha ha ha seems like he didn’t forget to bring his big ass ego along with him to Australia. See ya in 6 weeks belly jelly. Time’s gonna fly pass so fast, we wouldn’t even notice you’re gone. Swear.

Xx

(Btw, Taylor’s Swift’s Sparks Fly is stuck in my brain now. It’s not always that I have a song stuck in me. But this song is addictive leh.)

Baby I'm Yours

How amazingly romantic is this song right here. :') I want this playing at my wedding if I ever get married.



Baby, I'm yours (baby, I'm yours)
And I'll be yours (yours) until the stars fall from the sky,
Yours (yours) until the rivers all run dry
In other words, until I die

Baby, I'm yours (baby, I'm yours)
And I'll be yours (yours) until the sun no longer shines,
Yours (yours) until the poets run out of rhyme
In other words, until the end of time

I'm gonna stay right here by your side,
Do my best to keep you satisfied
Nothin' in the world can drive me away
'Cause every day, you'll hear me say

Baby, I'm yours (baby, I'm yours)
And I'll be yours (yours) until two and two is three,
Yours (yours) until the mountain crumbles to the sea
In other words, until eternity

Baby, I'm yours
'Til the stars fall from the sky
Baby, I'm yours
'Til the rivers all run dry
Baby, I'm yours
'Til the sun no longer shines
Baby, I'm yours
'Til the poets run out of rhyme
(fade out)

Magix

Went on a dinner date with ger yesterday. Finally ventured out of our usual routine of putien/teppanyaki and met at Bugis! Had some atas Japanese food at Iluma which I suppose is really authentic cause there were a group of Japanese businessmen sitting behind us (quite good looking also ha ha they look like Gatsby models).

Had Mentaiko with potato and cheese after hearing about it for the longest time. Not too bad! Scallops were at the other end of the spectrum though. Pathetically small in size. When they served it up I said "Ha ha this is not scallops lor. More like hnr pia (fish cakes)".

We also had some..rice thingy that was cooked in front of us in some rich broth in a wooden pail thingy. I know I made it sound extremely un-appetizing but it's surprisingly good! Had free flow green tea which ger graciously commented "Walau this one si eh pai lim lor". Ha ha ha she asked for a glass of iced water like 3 seconds after receiving her iced green tea.

Exchanged seKretS about my school/social life to which ger rolled her eyes at my recent interest. Ha ha ha.

Me: Okay so I tell you ah there's this ___ that I have right... I say first ah, ___ does not look _______ at all so you cannot laugh ok!!!!
Ger: *rolls eyes* 你觉得我有可能不会笑吗？
Me: 你已经看准就算你笑我也会跟你说 right. :(
Ger: Ya. Ha ha just say lah.

Talked about matters that were..conflicting and bothersome also, to which she mentioned a point that I haven't really thought about at all. Ever since she brought up that point, I've been feeling less conflicted about the whole thing. Puts everything in a much clearer and objective perspective for me I guess.

Went over to Bugis Junction to walk off our dinner (and also to finish drinking our Koi). Book hunting was a failure even though I did picked up Patrick Süskind's The Pigeon along the way. But still no Dawn Porter :(( The Pigeon was surprisingly thin though, like in comparison to Perfume(also by Patrick Süskind).

Perfume used to be my favourite! Until Everything is Illuminated took over. Which reminds me, I still have not finished reading the book. Sibei jialat I still cannot bring myself to finish it after so long. It's like the magic of the book is going to end once I officially finish reading. And no, re-reading the book would not revive the magic. It's just...different! Maybe I'll just re-read the book from the start instead of forcing myself to finish it. A desperate attempt to preserve my own imaginary "magic" of my fave book. Ha ha. Ikr. My anal and eccentric book worm habits.

Bought watches together to which ger said "Walau 几岁了你可以学看 analog 的手表吗!!!" OKAY. IN MY DEFENSE I KNOW HOW TO TELL TIME ON AN ANALOG WATCH HOR!!!! Just that I prefer not to cause I'm a tad slower than other people and then I get very nervous whenever it's _:40 or _:45 because I SOMEtimes get it wrong. SOME. So there you have...101 reasons why I still prefer to wear digital watches. Lol.

Was on our way to the MRT station when...guess who we saw! Janus and Wenyong! Whassup whassup man. It was like super random and unexpected please. Ha ha. Trained home and it was PDA overload on the train with 2 giraffes shamelessly caressing each other. Really. Buey. Tahan. The train was fucking packed they die die still want to cuddle. WHY LIKE THAT!!!

Tsk tsk. And so...that was all. A once in a blue moon interesting Friday night that I had. Ha ha.

Ending off abruptly now.

小梁，

(Okay to be honest I really tried to type this in Chinese to show that I very got ink. But as you know, my Chinese (typed or written) has been cui all the while. So I use English ah.)

I know your internship has been tough, and honestly from the bottom of my heart I feel really bad that I am unable to do or say anything comforting other than "It's gonna be over soon", every time I hear about your office drama or a really too-much incident that took place.

All I know how to do when faced with immensely tough situations is to confide a lot in close friends and then subsequently try my hardest to avoid facing the problem up front while y'all try to catch me and from running away and nag me into finding the balls to make a decision. Lol. But you are different. You are strong. You almost never break down in public, swallowing everything inside because you feel that there is no point in causing more drama, afraid that the extra drama would worsen the situation. 很多事情，你宁愿自己扛。Including a lot of the hardships you face during work. All the Thursday nights spent at the bus stop just talking about random stuff, I can't help but see the lethargy in your face. You used to be more fervent in your work-related complaints..but through the months you've quieten down and just swallow it all in. Maybe it's cause you know more complaining wouldn't change the situation so you'd rather just not think about it after working hours. Yet, you would still always listen to my nonsense. Ha ha. My boring school life and the little interesting things I share.

Okay I digress. The point is, it is all going to end soon and no matter how your internship has affected you, it is an experience. Life is all about experiences. Some are harder to go through than the others, some will make you doubt your passion, some will make you question what will happen in the future. There is no date line into making a decision about your future. And if you ever feel bothered or stressed up about the future...text/call me :) I'll try my best to make you feel better.

好不好啊周太？

哎哟，不错哦!

Ha ha. And yes, you can make it. 15 more days only.

Blank

Accompanied my grandma to the market on Friday. We were picking out vegetables when...

Vendor: 哇这个是你的姐姐啊？

Me: 哈哈哈。我的婆婆啦。

Vendor: 我知道啦，开玩笑而已。小妹你有没有男朋友？

Me: 没有 leh.

Vendor: 要不要做我的孙媳妇？

What a way to help his grandson pick girls up. The uncle has a good sense of humor. Ha ha ha.

Alone for awhile now.. Enjoying every single minute of it :) Days when you can go do whatever, whenever you feel like it. Days when I can spend hours in the same shop trying on different outfits. When you can abandon your phone for the whole day just cause you feel like it. Drama free days. No emotional roller-coaster rides. Going to new places alone. Not needing to coordinate schedules. Browsing through book stores for hours. (Boys seem to really really hate book stores yknow. The only time I've been in one for >30 mins with a boy is with bel and pres. And that was because we needed to kill time before a movie. Lol.) Fun and precious me-time.

I'm actually quite impressed with how comfortable I've gotten with myself. I know, it sounds stupid, but I've never been.. in touch with the whole go-out-alone concept. I would constantly need company, a friend, or whatever. Just someone to accompany me to get errands done. But ever since I've gravitated to the whole alone/independent lifestyle, and have gotten very good at it too. Ha ha, I am surprised how fast time burns through when I'm out shopping alone. They say good times pass by fast, so me-time = good time. I'm actually quite disappointed that I didn't get to shop at Rivervale mall because I was stuck in traffic and had to rush for tuition lor :( SIAN. But I still get takeouts though. I mean, I have no problems eating alone lah just that the place has to have a very minimal crowd. I feel extremely awkward if I'm in a room full of strangers for too long.

I guess the only down side is that no one is available to accompany me catch a horror flick anymore :( Really people, WATCH HORROR MOVIES WITH ME LEH. HAIYA.

Okay it's 4.30am in the morning and I still couldn't get to bed. To think that I felt like death in the afternoon. Dammit stupid body clock!!!! Get back to normal will ya.

Once again, dreading the thought of doing homework later on. Sucks balls.

Private, finally

www.strangeranotherjust.wordpress.com

Still tampering about the new domain. All private posts will go there I suppose. Stuff I don't really want to let anybody but myself know about. So if I didn't tell you...don't ask.

Nightmare

I've been having extremely weird dreams for the past 2 days and last night's one was the most terrifying one.

I dreamt that my girlfriends (pei wei min ger) were sitting on the floor of the corridor outside my lecture theater waiting for me. When I saw them, weiwei asked me "你最怕什么？" I answered "Frogs lor." After I answered her, she smirked and then took out a fat ugly disgusting frog from behind her back and threw it at me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WTF!!!!!!!!!!! I was so scared that I just stood there rooted to the ground (not gonna happen irl I'm gonna run for my life if that were to happen). Then later pei, ah lee and ger also took out frogs and threw them at me :((((

I was so freaking scared walau you have no idea. I just stood there while frogs were like jumping all around me with their flabby green bodies ewwwWWWwwww. They proceeded to take out more frogs and wanted to throw them at me when I said "够了 hor".

They just laughed at what I said and were preparing to throw more frogs at me :((( So I walked up to the nearest person (I think it was ah lee) and flipped her off the parapet at the edge of the corridor. Then I continued to flip all my other friends over the building. Lol.

But when I looked down the building to see if they are dead/hurt, I realize that they were all just dangling at the sides of the building. Weiwei looked at my perplexed expression and said "我们又绑 safety harness hehehe"

:( And then I woke up in fear and sweat and cold feet and what not.

I don't know what was scarier. Frogs being thrown at me or me actually flipping all my friends off the building.

Please weiwei do not throw frogs at me ok :(((

Gangland Part 2

Homg after 3 days of having Gangland marathons... I thought that I've been desensitized to gang violence. Cause every other episode they would normally just tell you how they shoot and kill snitches (people who tell on them), beat people up violently, sell drugs and do prostitution...blah blah. It's kinda typical among all the gangs so it does get a bit normal after a few episodes.

Until this episode. My goodness it's like the realization of saw (the movie), but with much less...理智。

So one inmate made some homemade alcohol in his cell and got a few of his friends (also inmates) drunk. They jumped on a prison guard and took away his cell keys, proceeded to unlock every other cell and free all their fellow inmates, and then took all the guards (that they could catch) hostage.

Soon a full scale riot was taking place with like 1,100 inmates running freely around the prison. They went to the prison pharmacy first and started taking pills. Once they were all high on drugs, that's when the murdering started.

They found themselves welding torches that were left from maintenance men and used those to get to other prison inmates who were housed in protective custody. These 'special' inmates were separated from the majority because they would constantly get beaten or face a high risk of being stabbed/killed ah. They were all snitches, rapists, pedophiles and what not.

So...one inmate who was participating in this riot saw one of those 'special' inmates decapitated, his head being as a bowling ball and then later being stuck a broom stick and paraded down the prison hallway. He also saw inmates with screwdrivers being stuck through their ears and eyes, inmates being burnt till, in his own words "black-black, crisp, charred up".

The prison guard was bringing the filming crew around the prison to show them where it took place, and he opened a particular cell and said..

"This inmate was either doing time for rape, child abuse , or he was a snitch. *points to the floor with a big black patch* There's the inmate."

They apparently took him out of his cell and burnt him into the floor using welding torches. And if this wasn't the worst, you have to remember that there isn't just ONE cell. So the neighbouring inmate had to hear his neighbour being killed, and anticipate his own death because they were going down the line. Imagine the terror.

The prison guard also showed the shooting crew axe marks on the floor, where they were cutting up the inmate. They would cut off an arm, cut off a foot, cut off an ear, and because they had welding torches, they would then cauterize (burn the skin to stop it from bleeding) the part where they chopped to stop him from bleeding to death. This way they could keep him alive for 3 days to mete out more torture.

33 inmates were killed, 90 others were beaten and raped, and it took the state police and national guards 36 hours to regain control of the whole situation. Police said that the brutality of the homicides they saw were worst than those they saw when they were serving time at Vietnam.

My goodness. If this is not gruesome I don't know what is. And I can take gruesome stuff quite well. Very fierce.

Saw seems almost...insignificant compared to this episode of Gangland. And I quite enjoy Saw (the movie) lor.

Fierce.

Gangland

Is it weird of me to marathon Gangland series?

It's like a documentary about the different gangs in America. So far... my top 3 favourite gangs are...

1) Norteños - A Latino gang.

This gang is damn bad ass please. The senior gang members in jail actually nurtured the younger members (also in jail) by imposing a strict regiment of working out, educating them about gang laws, and....asking them to visit the library as frequently as possible. Serious. The inmate interviewed said that he was told to read Sun Tze, Mao Zedong, biographies of political leaders and all. O.O Oh and plus they have a really catchy rap tune which advocates the gang. The tune is still stuck in my head.

2) Pagan's Motorcycle Club

Also very bad ass. All the members owns a Harley-Davidson with a minimum engine force of 900cc...and they are just very very angry violent, intimidating looking men. Like big blocks of raging violence ready to just lash out on you anytime. Their preferred weapon of choice is usually an bat of some sorts, so they just aim for the head and whack your skull to smithereens. Ha ha I just find the image of intimidating looking men on Harley-Davidsons very bad ass. Imagine 50 of those riding on the highway. Right?

2) Ñetas (Ne-a-tas) - Puerto Rican Gang

This gang is probably one of my favourite. They assume themselves to be moral officers in prison, meting out punishment to fellow inmates who are in for rape and pedophiliac crimes. I mean...that's something I kinda don't mind. Since you're in prison already might as well right. Rapists and pedophiles should be on death sentence anyway.

Plus they are the more family orientated gangs around. One of their gang rules is that they are not allowed to use "motherfucker", "son of a bitch", "son of a whore" and stuff like that. No disrespecting mothers, family and all. Quite...umm endearing no?

Ha ha, the thing that made this my favourite gang so far is their determination. Apparently the Ñetas were being targeted in prison by another gang, and the enemy gang colluded with prison officers to have the then-Ñetas' gang leader killed in prison. Instead of being defeated, they dug through cell walls with a friggin' SPOON, reach the leader of the enemy gang, stabbed him 150 times, chopped him up into 84 pieces, smuggled it out of prison and send the pieces to the family and fellow gang members of that enemy gang.

I ain't even gonna think of how they manage to cut up a dead body and smuggle those bloody pieces out of prison without getting caught. If they can dig through cell walls with a SPOON...the possibilities are endless. End of story.

So...am currently in the phase of marathon-ing Gangland on youtube. I'm over the whole criminal shows thing (for now). Sigh sometimes I feel that my taste in shows is just plain weird.

Stress

Stress level through the roof.

Breathe Meishan, breathe.

Johnny English

Caught Johnny English with the boys on Friday, and I have to say, belly has impeccable timing. I was at my grandma's place till around 6pm-ish before I headed back home. The bus was juuuust turning into Tampines when belly called. "Eh want to watch Johnny English tonight not I'm booking out today."

If he were to call me when I'm already at home and rotting my lazy ass away, I don't think that I'll come out lor! Haha. So lucky timing we have there. Plus pres is like forever ready one, so err'body's down fo sum movie luvin y'all.

(Excuse the street accent. Am watching gangland on history channel now. Gang members all speak like this. Ha ha.)

Johnny English was fucking hilarious! Really worth the watch :) Something strike me though, Rowan Atkinson really aged a lot. I know it's nothing big since we grew up watching him...but yeah didn't strike me until then. Guess big ass movie screen in HD doesn't do much for concealing age.

The boys banned me from buying overpriced milo and refused my craving for popcorn and nachos :( So I only had iced lemon tea for the movie. Booooooooo.

Finished the movie at around 1am and walked back home. Belly's mum was super cute, she spotted us walking from afar and hid behind a tree, calling us only when we passed the tree.

Bel: Mom don't pretend to hide behind the tree we can see you.

LOL. Was intending go home after visiting 7-11 cause I had tuition the next day...but whaddayouknow. We ended up sitting under my block till past 3am talking about everything under the sun (or moon).

Ended up sleeping at close to 5am. Haizzz like my sleeping patterns aren't erratic enough. NEED TO SLEEP BEFORE 1230AM.

Need to drag my ass to do econs tomorrow. Lines galore. Abrupt and weird ending...now.

xx

Breakfast

I used to be a skip-breakfast kinda girl but I've converted. Now, I diligently eat my breakfast (aka the first meal of the day, depending on what time I wake up ha ha ha) and have thus far, ventured from the norms of bread and jams to oats to cereal and now.... I have officially discovered the easiest, yummiest, fuss free breakfast anyone could have ever came up with.

Sidetrack a bit, yknow how oats need to be cooked? Well....sometimes if I'm very lazy I'd just add a little bit of hot water to soften them, add soy milk, honey, some milo powder, and eat it. Haha, sama sama one lah. Or sometimes I'd just cook them in huge batches, store them in the fridge and eat them over 3-4 days.

I know, disgusting right. But what to do. Laziness is inherently a part of me.

So....back to the easiest breakfast ever, Muesli and Yogurt. Mad tasty and nice please (esp for yogurt lovers. I loooove yogurt.)





So, if you are lazy like me but you still wanna stay healthy, eat this. Guarantee chop stamp nice.

Nostalgia

Sometimes, a short meet up with the girls can bring back so much...nostalgic feelings of times when we were back in secondary school.

Met up at 201 for our zi char dinner. As usual, ah lee wore her standard attire for meet ups that are near the vicinity of Chai Chee. She's really the embodiment of 一套衣服走天下, lol. Co-incidentally, everyone wore white! Except for weiwei though cause she forsake meeting us on time for TV, so we outcast her. Haha.

Went to jalan jalan at the pasar malam before making our way to the Kampong Chai Chee for karaoke.

Funny (ummm..slightly freaky) incident happened there.

Weiwei was sitting at the end of the L-shaped sofa, with her back on the wall. Throughout the first...1.5hrs of our session, she kept feeling knocks(?) thuds(?) coming from the room beside ours. She assumed it was the people in the other room banging against the wall, so she returned the favour by constantly throwing her back on the wall periodically. Hahaha. The sight was quite amusing actually. Like halfway through a song she would feel the need to irritate them back and then just throw herself against the wall out of no where. Damn funny.

But, the banging didn't stop. So in order to escalate our "revenge", we decided to up the volume of super loud songs. The first being "DJ Got Us Falling In Love". And then 王妃. 恋爱ing. Can you imagine?? Srsly the volume was so fucking loud I think I was semi deaf when it ended. I wonder how people who frequent clubs can still have normal hearing.

But still, the banging didn't stop.

Pei decided to go to the bathroom in between our "revenge", and when she came back, she said something that freaked the fuck out of all of us.

Pei: Eh, 隔壁没有房间 leh.

WTF. Weiwei screamed and immediately abandoned her seat and flew to the other end of the sofa, and then someone else screamed, ger screamed, I screamed, everyone screamed. LOL it was such an epic moment I swear.

We continued singing though, despite the scare cause we were all brAvE_giRLz92. And that we still had another hour left on the session. Haha.

We had a very...diversified playlist though. Korean, English, Mandarin, Cantonese and...Hokkien. Lol we sang 爱 and 家后 (gey ao). I think the people who might have overheard our choice of songs would be very confused.

We all cabbed home and twas the end of a very comfortable and nostalgia-coated meet up. Reminds me of why we are such close friends after so long. We are all so comfortable in our own skins when we are with each other, so honest, so...at ease. Glad to have them, srsly :)

And now it's time for me to procrastinate doing my econs homework. Haizzzzzz.

Oh and I haven't been meeting the boys for so long cause of tuition+school+more tuition so...this coming friday, movie date? :)

HAIZ

I am just abusing this space to sate my innate craving for talking to a unresponsive (or lack thereof) audience.

But,I really cannot get to sleep. For the past week I've been able to sleep only past 1am and it's really, really a very big enticement for me to skip my 8.30am mathematics lecture on Fridays when all the lecturer is going through....is differentiation. >:(

Tired like a zombie still cannot fall asleep. Woe is me.

And here's a narcissistic photo of myself cause...nothing. Just cause I like it.



Hope I fall asleep soon.

Dita Von Teese

Dita Von Teese.

Have always been fascinated with the effort she puts into dressing herself up so, so immaculately. Her passion for everything burlesque and vintage. Her refined poise and mannerism, the air of old glamour and femininity she exudes whenever, whatever, she is doing. Her honesty and forthrightness in answering questions regarding being a burlesque dancer and being a stripper. Her charm.

Recently watched an clip of her and Marilyn Manson (when they were still together), being interviewed by Tom Green (who acted like an asshole). The way she handled Tom's crudeness with such class...it's alluring. Her charm, really...I am fixated.

How could you not fall in love with her? I guess I have enough space in my heart for 2 female crushes after all. Haha.
