ah. so much to say. boyfriend dearest brought me for a night's stay at fullerton's quay suites for.. i'm not too sure for what. so let's call it official first year anniversary part one ! yupyup. it was magical. every single bit, down to the black squid ink spaghetti. hahaa!!

boyfriend dearest bought memommy a herbal roasted duck for cny.

boyfriend dearest went to the zoo with me again today, and we spent 8 hours there. at least.

xinyu dearest brought me handmade dumplings.

**i'll put up all the pictures later.. cos i'm lazy.**


and i just wrote an essay that might make or break a friendship. but at least it's out. at least i've said it.

ha. i love kareen.

i can safely, happily, get a mac as long as there's a kareen (it's so nice talking to you i miss you!) around. HEE.

"elitist. not enthusiast. Elitist!"

and i believe every word she says!! hahahahaha. cos whenever i see or think of mac, i see and think of kareen, it's this link my brain has formed somehow. lalalaa. MAC! yeh. =)

plus like joanne says, "it's pretty!"

and yes, i am a superficial bitch who goes for a pretty exterior. =)






lunched at raffles buffet with cliff's mom and him. A yumyum meal. =)
Cliff took half day off to have lunch with us, then bring me to the dentist. i need fillings on 9 teeth. 9 fucking teeth!!!!! *faints* $50 per tooth- i will die!!! or was it $50 for all? not too sure myself! =x
then we went to get his mattress, walked somemore, then finally retired to the foodcourt for dessert. =)

Loving my B A B Y!!!!




Dear xinyu, if you're reading this, i wonder if you went for a... you know... *insert 4 letter word here*. LOVE YOU!!!!!

PS. waiting for that VROOMVROOOOOM!!



And OH. My hair is black. I might as well cut it all off. So black. I have never been THIS black. No. Not even that time when they forced me to dye it black at SRJC. Then again, maybe it was. Whatever. I like black in most places, except in my hair.. =/

That day whilst attending a talk, i received an sms.

"eh, that time u wanted a white wallet you found already??"

"nope. y?"

"i saw one very nice one at isetan, wanna get for you!"

so sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Reasons to love Yiwen. =)



Anyway. How come i see Ziyi Zhang everywhere? Why not more of Gong Li???? Why is it Satsu calming Chiyo down not the other way round? How come Gong Li acts deranged when she's supposed to be bitchy? How come Hatsumomo, who's supposed to be the best in Gion, runs around looking like mad sadako most of the time? How come mameha never ever puts on her geisha make up? How come pumpkin dosen't have a face that looks like a pumpkin, and she's not fat? How come Nobu has two hands? How come the kimonos don't look like those that the words of the book painted in my mind? How come they didn't put in the scene where the artist was enraptured by Chiyo's antics and painted her with her two hands in the air against the backdrop of a setting sun?

Memoirs of a Geisha, the movie, does not follow the book all that closely. Really. I liked the book veryvery much. But the movie spoiled some parts of the book for me. Some of the beauty i read from the book seemed terribly down-played in the movie, but i loved the part where they went to Mameha's Danna's estate to view the blossoms. SOOOOOOOO PRETTY!!!!!!!!

*chants* i wanna go japan and see sakura! *sings parapara sakura theme song*
I'm gonna watch that parapara sakura show over and over, learn the moves, then dance under the trees in japan!!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Back to memoirs!
Some parts of the movie wasn't what i expected, but it was lovely all the same. =)

and did i mention? Adult pumpkin wasn't what i expected, but i lovedlovedloved her acting! The perfect olden day version of the SPG! She brought out the role perfectly!!!!

Ohoh!!! and little Chiyo is sooooo cute!!!





On the talk i went to with xinyu:

They say that sometimes, when people don't understand what you are saying, they may take it as something offensive against them. In view of this, i think i should speak only in english, so that even when i am cussing someone, that someone will know exactly what i am cussing.

Therefore, you are no longer a chao lao cheebye.

You are a foul antiquated vagina.

repeat after me. you foul antiquated vagina. foul antiquated vagina. foulantiquatedvagina. foulantiquatedvagina. foulantiquatedvagina. foulantiquatedvagina.foulantiquatedvagina.
foulantiquatedvagina.foulantiquatedvaginafoulantiquatedvaginafoulantiquatedvagina!!!



knn. is it me? or does cheebye roll off the tongue so much easier?

More reasons to love xinyu.


xinyu* says:
oh yah, i was thinking of having a reunion dinner at My Humble House on the 4th or 5th day of CNY.

xinyu* says:
u, me, wy, ys, sarah, sin guan, cliff?

xinyu* says:
n jeanne too??

Laughing things off makes it easier dosen't it? says:
cliff too???? so sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saw this show on tv, about a man who has visions, whose wife does not believe that his visions are real happenings, and calls them "fantasies" instead.

It sucks when those closest to you don't listen to you, when they don't hear what you say, when they ignore you and your efforts.

It feels like why the fuck do i even give a damn when they don't? why do i try.

One thing i am extremely particular about is service.


Imagine you are looking at a menu outside a cafe.

The waitress comes up and asks politely, "Can i help you?"

"We're just looking, thank you", you reply with a smile.

The very next moment, she shouts to her colleague who is wiping tables at another end of the cafe, "Heng ar! just looking only!!!" (she said that line in mandarin)

Yes, i understand that closing time is near and you don't want to have to drag on your closing time.
Yes, i can understand that you might have cleaned up the kitchen or the tables and you don't want to have everything dirty again because a customer decides to come in.
Yes, i can understand that you might be tired after the whole day.
Yes, i fully understand that you have a right to bitch to your colleague.

BUT NOT IN FRONT OF THE CUSTOMER!!!!!

i don't care whether or not we look like we understand chinese. Shouting in a cafe where there are other customers eating is rude. Gloating that you're lucky because the customer is not coming in, IN FRONT OF THE CUSTOMER is plain rude!!!!!!

That attitude is DISGUSTING. Chocz, at marina square. The menu looked enticing enough for me to come back another day, but the attitude turned me off from that place for a very long time.

So i told Miss rude when she had the cheek to turn back and look at us.

"I think your attitude is quite bad."

What was i thinking??? It was so much more than "quite". It was terrible! Outrageous!!

All she could do was smile, and "huh? sorry..."

And Cliff proceeded to tell her why her attitude sucked.

No use. The deed is done. And if i had to say something cliche, think meteor garden, Dao Ming Si's pet phrase.

There is no excuse for bad service. Whether pissed off with a customer, or gloating because she is not going to come in and make you serve her, don't do it in front of the customer. Have the common sense to go somewhere where she can't hear you.

I have worked in the service line, customers can be fucked, but you don't fuck them back in front of them! (But we weren't annoying! We were innocently looking at the menu!)

I don't agree that the customer is always right, but you have to admit that the customer pays you.

I can't tolerate bad service!!!!!!

MOS!!!!!!!! everyone on the count of three. 1, 2, 3..........

WE LOVE MOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Candy floss retro! yumyum!!

for the priority queue for ladies only.
for the priorityX2 queue for gorgeous people and their friends. =)
for their pink and white helium balloons. (if weiying was there she'd be sucking helium and squeaking!!!)
for their exquisite decor- rugged cages, seats for everyone everywhere, colourful blinking retro dance floor, many unique chairs, escalator, blingblinglights and hanging disco balls, for their oh-so-cool toilets either white and pink or blue and starry but both with sexy red chairs, for the princess chamber styled pure, for the friendly people working there, for the toilet aunty from momo who got transfered over, and for the candy floss-5 at a go!
for telling me that poles are an idea.
for the interviews and pictures before and after.




and Happy Nineteenth Birthday Sexy Sarah =)))))

2nd january 2006

BOTANICAL GARDENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


flowers flowers and more flowers.
orchids are so pretty!!!!


and my picnic with the handsome boyfriend was superb!!!!!

This granite ball was donated by the swiss confederation in 1991, and is kept afloat by a strong force of water. it rolls round and round, never stops, and if you try hard enough, you CAN change it's course... now, does that sound familiar?


Love of my life, patronising my narcissistic habits.


conversation of the day went like this...
"dear.... the orchids are sooooo pretty!!!!"
"yes...."
"dear.... am i pretty like the orchids???!!!!"
"yes....."


ladida. i love my patronising boyfriend. *muackx* =)



cassan loveslovesloves cliff!!!!

Thanks for doing so much for me baby... for bringing me everywhere i want to go, for fufilling my whims and fancies. =)

it's 2.49am and i'm clean, showered and at home.

i'm so sorry singuan, sarah, and most of all linderr... and xinyu and justin?? thanks so much for the company.

cooked dinner for xinyu, justin, sheryl, mommy.

finally got to count down with a group of people this year.. at that outdoor ngee ann civics plaza thingie. the fireworks and whatevers were so loud!!!! it was scary. din like it. last year was better, just a few close friends in the middle of the road. but party-wise, i guess this year has more people.. bobbing to the beat. not just the people, but also the fingers. there was a couple getting REALLY heavy- his hand was in her jeans, in her panties, down the front, in a lighted area, where anyone who needed the toilet would walk pass. some people like it that way i guess.

the music was good tho. that's very important.

but i got a fucking huge balooku on my thigh now. fuck bloody un-aligned barriers!

then rushing off, frantic, worried, scared, clueless, looking for a cab. then the fucking chao cheebye who tried to pick us up. no i don't want a ride. and fuck you. if you were trying to be nice, i'm sorry. mommy taught me not to take lifts from strangers.



I actually kept last years' resolutions. it feels so good to have done all that! I lost weight, plus i treasured myself and my loved ones more.




As for this year..? i'll keep it short.

#1 to love Cliff and Xinyu with all that i can.
#2 to love and cherish mummy with all that i have.
#3 to treasure the friends that i have and not get pissed off so easily.
#4 not to expect. expectations lead only to disappointment when not fufilled.
#5 to do well in studies, and cope with boyfriend and mommy not being with me 24/7.

I hope that at the end of 2006, i'll still be physically and emotionally close and bonded to my two favourite people in the world (excluding family). I really hope with all my heart, that you two will still be with me for another year. i love you!!!

the first few hours of the new year has not been pleasant. but i'm positive that it'll get better. when at a valley, there is only one way to go and that way's up the mountain! so yes. it's only 3.23am, and i have the rest of the day to make it better!!!

the first day of the new year did turn out great after all. =)
i am happy happy happy!!!!!

XINYU!!!! i love youuuu!!!!!!!!
(i love cliff too. HEE.)

May God bless the world.

and oh. Happy New Year.
