It's been so long, I know. I've mostly been emo-ing at my lifejournal; which is predominantly friends, and me only.


Had my camera repaired so the thought of posing manymany random photos struck me. =) lots of work stuff from the IBM roadshow. =D



First day after work: Watched What happens in Vegas, laughed our asses off. Spent ages discussing whether or not one would fall into the toilet bowl if the seat was left up. hehe.





Met Cliff after that.. Ended up at Frensh at Vivocity. I HEART THEIR TIRAMISU!!!! see. it comes with cocoa powder in the shape of the eiffel tower, and the dessert looking like the desirable full moon!!

Crescent moon left. heh.

This is how I get fat. =D

ooooo!!! Sara's pretty green m&ms!!! so much green makes me and sherrie veryveryvery happy!! This was 2nd day at Amoy Street. Torrents of rain soaked the girls. Sam and Sara had squishy feet! ahaha.

Very banged up Merc. Spotted this at the car repair area at Alexandra with Sam. Something really silly happened there. Shall not elaborate... =p

CHOCOLATE!!!!! CANELL!!!!! yumyumyum.


Happy with his dark chocs.

Beloved CHF and me. =)
imitating the idiots who refuse to take flyers!
New strategy: poke it under their nose!!
Reading about free donuts.
Labourer's feet.

Last day, all excited!
Dear Ian's 21st!!! Made Cliff wear that. Super nautica right! overheard someone saying, "are they a couple, they look like they're wearing the same"........ it's the THEME, darlings. =p

stripes = nautica. simple.
camera gone green =( That's Spencer.
Me with our pay.. first time holding 2 thousand dollar notes.
dear! help me leh! take picture take picture!!!
Shoot with Vish. No, I cannot shut my mouth when jumping. i like the last one. =)


ok. i'm supposed to be up in 2 hours. seriously contemplating not sleeping!!! too excited anyway! hehehehee. =D

eh this is so annoying. i finally organised all my pictures, and i thought i'd upload them all to flickr. then guess what?

I CAN ONLY HAVE 3 SETS THERE. =/

grrr. now must find somewhere else. Picassa i think. Just that Flickr sounds nice. boo.

anyway. i guess i'm back here to blog for abit more. maybe. we'll see.

Dimsum with the three boys =)


Stupid Benjy acting cool. So i picked the picture where Pn and me looked nice. =)

GuiLinGao is made from GuiTou. And after laughing at their joke for super long, I asked what's GuiTou. =/ Should have known what it was.... =/


I remember one birthday they ordered an earthquake each(thank goodness i wasn't there!), this time, it's only 2 desserts (the max that could be ordered), but it looks scary enough!



Pretty parcel waiting for me when i got home. =) It's a little tight though. It's alright, spur on my diet intentions!!! HA!


My gorgeous sunset!

My gorgeous love =D

sometimes i wish i had superpowers.

Superpower #1
Animal communication. I'd get all the cats to attack the cars of those fucking students who insisted on dragging a table from fucking far away to right next to my table, blocking the whole freaking pathway so that ppl had to squeeze to get through. And in the process of squeezing, bump into my chair. Chaocheebye.

*listen up fellow cats*
go to their cars, slash the tyres, the windscreen, all the glass panels, the entire car body. LEAVE YOUR MARK my friends!!!!

chaocheebyetheyreallypisstheshitouttamekanina.



then while trying to move all my stuff up to the other section of macs (finally have space), didn't realise that the mango salad in my bag had spilled. now i have mango infused bag/wallet/notes. chaocheebye.

emptied my whole bag, left valuables at cliff's table, went to the toilet to wash my bag. bf saw all this, and didn't ask what happened. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Focus cassan. All the negative energies in you. imagine it all travelling thru your body towards your hands. it's a red ball of powerful energy in your hand. now use that energy to THROW STONES AT ALL THE STUPID FUCKERS AROUND YOU!!! now let it go. and relax cassan. relax.

i hate school.

i hate not being able to study when there's no one to drag me out. it's so gloomy at home- so not conducive. then mummy comes home, and i start watching tv. then i go back to facebook. then BOOM! day over. accomplishment zero.

control cassandra, CONTROL! start studying you freak!!! grrrrrrrrrrr.

i don wanna hafta retake anything... =(

btw, i hate this blog too, sometimes. cos it's so... OPEN. yet it's nice bitching here sometimes.

indecisive freak. =(

no matter what people say about Lilin, I'll always have this fascination with her. I love the way she brings to life the vulnerability in characters.

Just watched Leap Years..

I love her portrayal of Li Ann. Joan Chen was great too.. Ananda... is absolute gorgeous. Perfect super model if only she'd trim her brows and wax the goatee!! Don't you think she'll be absolutely stunning??? =p haha. nice eyes! hot bod.

And i saw Kris in the show!!! *gasp* haha. everyone's following their dreams. happy for them =D


Another character I absolutely love; Dear dear Wilde!

"If you are not too long, I will wait here for you all my life"

"Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught. "

"When I was young I thought that money was the most important thing in life; now that I am old I know that it is. "


Happy belated birthday Miss Cara Chew.
Ides of March ; I didn't forget,

BEAUTY WORLD, CHACHACHA!!!!
080108, 8pm, Esplanade.

The musical was beautiful to watch; We had great seats =)
I felt that the best voices were from LuLu, and Frankie WongFeiHong. Ivy was a good singer too and Darren Tan's portrayal of Ah Hock was very well done, though he seemed to fail to hit a couple of notes, but i believe that was one of the booboos that night. Irene Ang and "mummy" got a little flustered i believe, and messed up a line. However, i loved the chemistry between the both of them and how Irene kept going off in cantonese frequently. =D

Lulu's bitchiness was a hit with me! -GRIN!! Favourite scene was where Lulu ripped off her robe, and started a-go-go dancing with the most fabulous tassled dress!!!!

The entire show was a success, congratulations to all involved!!!!

The only thing that got on my nerves were the people who bought the cheap seats, then hopped over the the best seats after the interval. It wouldn't have mattered that much normally, but one group of them included fake-slanging chinese aunties(50-55 yo) and their caucasian friends. Why did they annoy me? Well, I noticed them in the toilet, boasting to one another about going to Hanoi to watch I-can't-remember-what, and the other lady had just come back, was going again,... blablabla. Basicaly boasting about their jet-setting lifestyles. SO, you spend so much time and money flying around, but you scrimp on tickets, buy cheap ones, then hop over to the best seats??? If I'm not wrong, they hopped from Cat 4 to Cat 1!!!!

Why can't people show more support for the local arts scene??!!!! ARGGHHHHH!!!!!

Despicable.








Back to happy moments:

Doc Cheng's was FANTABULOUS!!!!! (Fantastic + Fabulous!!!)

Why? try it and find out.

Starters:

Cliff ordered the degustation set, and so had quite a few starters to sample. The prawn was well marinated and very tasty- it was cooked in fragrant butter and you know it's true the moment you put it in your mouth.

The salmon came with orzo. I had no idea it was a type of pasta. The first mouth was a delightful contrast of creamy butter sauce and slippery rice-sized pasta. It was absolutely delicious!! I actually ate the salmon too =D

My peking duck was well done, but not as good as the first two. =) The mongolian lamb somehow reminded me of Char Siew Sou. heh.

Mains:

"BEST LAMB EVER!" Cliff's comments on his medium rare lamb. "VERY WELL MARINATED!!" He's known to be stingy with his praises for lamb.

The Miso cod fish I had, was the first ever melt-in-my-mouth fish that i didn't find slimy or disgusting. =)

Dessert:

nothing that makes me go "WOW!", but then, nothing has made me gone crazy since the chocolatey thingy ( I think it was an Opera) that Alain Ducasse made at sofitel, and of course, my very favourite, lovingly christened; Pink Lamington, officially known as Venus Framboise, if I recall correctly. The latter is from Lenotre. =D





Before dinner, there was DIMSUM BUFFET!!!!! *SLURPS!!!! with favourite people. Inclusive of Jeanne, Xinds, Ben, Sonny. The first two had sneaked a longer lunch break. hehe. =D it was veryvery nice seeing you all!!! and even nicer eating good food with you all!!!! I lovelovelove you all!!! =DDD

Cliff met the boys and me at macs at marina square late noon; i had been draggin them to look at bags. =D lalalallalaaaa. i'm happy!!!

OH!!! and monday was hi-tea buffet at Carousel with Miss Ginny Chua, fellow marco lover!!! =D If "luxury brands" was a subject, she's get best teacher award for it! oh, and if i could nominate "Friendliest and most polite customer", she'd get it hands down too!!

Luxury shopped through DFS, then middle-ranged at Zara, Mango, Topshop, and ended it with Aunty- styled pillow buying.

ROAST PORK SOON OK!!!!! I love you much chua!!!

Beautiful two days, with people I love lots. =D I'm very very happy. =D


Pictures will be added when i feel like it =)

All Hail Princess Sara!!!

and yes, it has been told that the glorious Princess Sara turned 21 amidst much luxurious celebration and finery, on Singapore's own lil island of Sentosa. She stayed at (oops, don't know the hotel) with the most beautiful toilets, and partied till the wee hours of the morning with her dear friends. We all love you much Princess! And yes, you deserve every bit of this and many blessings to you dear child, and may all your wishes come true. We hope the year goes great, your life runs well, and all who have a bone to pick with you, lose that bone somehow. All the best, because you deserve it!

I'm one happy and fat lil' shithead now. =D

and before beauty world it's Doc Cheng's at Raffles. =D

some time soon will be mediterrenean buffet at The Olive Tree at Intercontinental with him and mommy.

Great start to 2008 I'd say. =)

and cheers to upcoming official 3rd year together! xoxo!

One of the best New Year so far. =)

Spent it with favourite people. Xinds wasn't there, but you know we bring her around in our hearts...

"If Xinds was here, won't stay out so late one lor..."

"YA! she'll be whining our ears off..."

Together: "can we goooo........"

lol. Anyway, me, Sherrie and Joy. Clubbing- sort of. The music was good though- always loved live bands. =)

Happy people happy songs.. Random wandering.... following Benjy into a cheena KTV pub. Laughed my head of at the antics of the people there! Sherrie and Joy trashed the high scores on the "spot the difference" game machine- TWICE!

hung around, waiting for non-existent cabs (i'd bitch about them, but i don't want to ruin my happy entry =D), ended up getting Cliff to fetch us all from Clark Quay.

Why was it a good year? I didn't catch my first sunrise this year- not at the beach anyway, we were speeding across the expressways when the sun rose.

BUT. I met Benjy, Sonny, and Robin, hung with Sherrie, spent some part of the early morning with long-ago friend Lengyeow, and later that morning, had maccas brekkie with Benjy, Cliff and Sonny (whom we thot would be fun to prank call and annoy at 7AM, only to find out he was already up.. =/ freak... ), while Sherrie slept in a chair in the corner! haha!

Sent poor tired Sherrie home, then met the boys again at compass point, stoned at starbucks while playing daidee and gin rummy.

You tell me, how not to be happy and love my new year??!!! =D

OH. and that night I got to meet up with deardear Xinyu. So YES...

I heart New Year 2008!!!!


Thanks for making it good people. =) Hope you enjoyed too!!



peektures when sher sends them =)

Was thinking of posting a really really long post, but i'm just too damn lazy =)

SO. I'm here here to leave my mark- the last post of 2007.


2007 has gone by without many major glitches. Thinking back, most of it was good really.


Ten most memorable moments, in no particular order:

10. Having the usual/yearly IhateXinyu/IloveXinyu thing.

9. Partying in GoldCoast; meeting and knowing Matt, getting fucking drunk and puking my way home, knowing the girls more.

8. Chilling with Weiying, Yinsiu and Xinyu in melbourne; bestie madness at 4am =D, and that one night at Crown!

7. Simplistic yet beautiful birthday; first with Cliff and my 2 beautiful suprises (yes, Xinds and Shaz), then with my harem of beautiful ladies (though perky bumbum roti prata Sara cldn't make it.)

7. Sundays with Sherrie.

6. Avoiding all calls for clubbing =p

5. Going through one of the biggest fights with Cliff, and loving him again.

4. Filming my first commercial =)

3. 2 more stars, this one with Gin =)

2. Meetups with my boys.

1. Brief stint at the zoo; being behind the scenes, meeting Inuka close up, and I lovelovelove Happy and Hobby and Junior and PK!!!!!


There may have been others, but i can't quite recall now. =)

Haven't been reading blogs for at least 3 months, and that gives me time to do other things.... like FACEBOOK!!!!!! =D I love facebook! heh.

Things are all good, and i'm happy. Gonna have my ritual on newyear's morning again. And catching that yearly first sunrise is really the best start to the whole year. =)

I'm looking forward to more love, school, new friends, and more.

Dear 2007, thank you and goodbye. =)

This is sneaked off eaststar from st condolensces forum.
It pulls a string, and helps.. a little.

To the loved ones of the five young men;

To Xuelin, your sis-in-law Debbie, your family, and all those who knew and loved Eu Jin..


* A Child Of Mine *

I will lend you, for a little time,
A child of mine, He said.
For you to love while he lives,
And mourn for when he's dead.

It may be six or seven years,
Or twenty-two or three.
But will you, till I call him back,
Take care of him for Me?

He'll bring his charms to gladden you,
And should his stay be brief.
You'll have his lovely memories,
As solace for your grief.

I cannot promise he will stay,
Since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught down there,
I want this child to learn.
I've looked the wide world over,
In search for teachers true.
And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes,
I have selected you.

Now will you give him all your love,
Nor think the labour vain.
Nor hate me when I come
To take him home again?

I fancied that I heard them say,
'Dear Lord, Thy will be done!'
For all the joys Thy child shall bring,
The risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness,
We'll love him while we may,
And for the happiness we've known,
Forever grateful stay.
But should the angels call for him,
Much sooner than we've planned.
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes,
And try to understand.

- Edgar Albert Guest

Another family feeling pain.

Sudden goodbyes are hard because there is no closure.

yet it seems that some loved ones of the five young men, had dreamt about their friend, and had the chance for a goodbye.

I don't know any of them, yet because of their age, because it was dragonboat, because of what just happened to Xue, because it was not just one, but five, because seventeen survived. How did fate choose which five had to go?

I was shocked, devasated, exasperated. why did they decided to row back themselves? why were they not wearing lifevests? why were they not more cautious?

The part i hate most? i know why.

You never know the pleasure of rowing, if you've never done it. Rowing leisurely is so different from competitively. I remember rowing from kallang to boat (or is it clark) quay, docking at the steps, and having breakfast at macs, before rowing back to kallang.

Anthony always said to never stop rowing, especially cos we were in open waters. He always stressed how dangerous it could be, now he has an example to add to the warning.

Rowing leisurely; we waved to couples taking their wedding pictures, kids on excursions, construction workers at the esplanade site. We saw things different from how others would; we saw it from the waters down below.

The pleasure of the wind in your face, and having the chance to savour that moment because you are not just concentrating on your strokes and speed and strength.

Also, it is a chance to practice.

I can understand why they chose to row back, i would have chosen that too.

Lifevests. Hate them with a passion when rowing. The only time i like them is when we take a break at the beach. Then i like the lifevests cos i can keep floating and not sink slowly.

Lifevests give you abrasions under your armpits. And before the previous abrasion gets to heal, you train again, and your abrasion gets wounded all over again. All that burning, and guess what? you're in the sea, my dear. Which means you have salt water constantly stinging the wound!

It's like wearing a new pair of heels, and getting blisters on your heels and toes. Plasters won't work cos they scrunge up after a while anyway. So you continue wearing your new heels till the blister breaks and you're limping in pain. Now, pour salt water on your wound.

Ouch? told you so.

Runners shave their head to decrease wind resistance. I think lifevests create too much resistance. =/

So once again, i can understand their choice.

Being cautious is not a choice. It's like parents not liking their kids ride motorcycles because it's dangerous. You can be as careful as you want, but if the cars around you are not careful and hit you, that's just it. You can control yourself but not your surroundings. You can be cautious while rowing, but that does not mean that the waters will return that favour. Mother Nature ultimately, is unpredictable.

At least they were enjoying themselves. That's the best form of comfort we give ourselves i guess.

They were wonderful people, who lead good lives, were good friends and children. People will look back on their memories, and remember them with a smile.

They brought pride and joy to their families, and those who knew them.

They have somewhere else they need to be for now..

Some things are not meant to be forever. Some people walk into our lives to teach us a little something, or maybe bring a little gift. And then they leave again. After you have dried your tears, live life as he would have had wanted you to. Be happy, for it is in being happy, and carrying on with life; almost like before, but missing a little something, that we remember him in.

For his teammates, each time you row, you know you will feel them with you once again.


This one is for the five young men, who were lost, but now found. I hope i don't sound sadistic, but at least you have company. Your memory lives on, in your family, friends, loved ones, and all those who have yet to meet you, but have gotten to know a little about you over the past 2 weeks.




I take the liberty to reproduce a poem that Mr Ronnie Koh wrote for the five young men.

Touched by their stories, he wrote them a poem, and sent it in to Straits Times. For some reason, i think that he has rowed before. For one who has never rowed, would not be able to paint a picture so intense and vivid. He captured the spirit of it all.

A Tribute to Team Singapore, Dragon Warriors

Dragon Warriors

Hail! Dragon warriors! Hail!

There is no need to weep,

For do you not know,

That dragon warriors never sleep!

Arise! Stand tall! Arise!

Raise your talons, hold'em high!

Turn your sorrows, brothers,

Into mighty war cries!

No longer in your sight,

Your brothers be,

True dragon warriors they've become,

For all to see.

Not for money,

Nor for fame,

But with my brothers,

Other dragons do we tame.

Our hearts beat,

Our hearts pound,

We live for the moment,

To hear the war drums sound.

Drive it hard!

Drive it deep!

Honour and glory!

Ours to keep!

Though we may part,

We never sleep,

Sound the war drums,

And we will meet.

Hail! Dragon warriors! Hail!

Dragonboaters, i know you can hear the drums he speaks of.

"I felt like I was going to die"
Condolensces from ST readers
Coach recalls accident
Some words from some of their families
Bad instincts about the race
Saying goodbye; your condolensces




It was only when i read about the accident, that i finally knew how to spell cocksen coxswain.

I'm having an eventful period, mostly good, one bad.

Weddings and 2 birthdays to plan, and one very very unexpected death.

Death of this one boy (26 dosen't qualify you as a boy, but that's how i'll always see him as that was how i knew, and remembered him.). A friend's brother, that i knew since 9 or 10, that played block catching, and badminton and zero point and all that with us. A whole group of kids of all ages, who stopped playing with us as they got older. We were not all that close, but still we knew each other's existence, and acknowledged it. My last memory of him was at a dragonboat race during NYJC days. I turned behind, and surprise surprise, the cocksen was none other than my friend's brother!

A filial son, smartest in the family, caring brother, intelligent student, outstanding employee, loving and dedicated new husband.

"A wonderful man, who lead a short, but very fufilled life." I quote Xue to the best of my memory. She always was very proud of him and his accomplishments, and always will be.

Too young he left this world, "He is needed in another place", she said.

The couple were together for almost 10 years. Since JC, till now. I can only imagine the pain. I know he left quite an impression on many people- the amount of flowers and the people that flooded the wake was evidence.

But really, the newspaper articles and fucking annoying reported were unwarranted. If you were there to write the best, wanted to give this young man his last bit of glory, so be it. If you went there in search of an article to fill your miserable pages, fuck you. Put yourself in their shoes. They have more than enough to deal with. They don't need your annoying questions, inaccurate reports, and heavy sighs and disappointed puppy-dog eyes when your begging to talk to his wife comes to naught. Really, would you want me poking and probing into every single thing if it is your kin that passed away? Wait, I don't think you have feelings in the first place. You'll probably be elated because you have every single detail and can write the best article of all! Seriously, Fuck Off. Let the man go in peace! They don't need your inaccurate tales. He is, and always will be so much more than what you can capture in a one page article. Their privacy is not an opportunity for your paper's publicity.


They really got me fired up. If only i was there earlier to help out. =/

Xue did mention that TNP seemed really sincere about it, and were very accurate as well. It was from there that i found out. Read the article out of curiously, then the names got too familiar for my liking. First, his vaguely familiar pictures, then his unusual surname and name, then his wife's name, then the schools, and last of all, i recognised his father's name. No mistake, it was him. Double checked with the orbituaries in ST. Xue's name was there. Scanned through the list, hoping that it really was a huge coincidence; recognised the other name her dad goes by, and her cousin's name. I simply cannot describe my shock, it just too much to comprehend.

26, newly married, golden boy in every sense of the word. Intelligent, hardworking, loving, good looks, physique and personality. Heart stopped functioning whilst he was in the pool, in China.

I'm glad i read the papers, cos i usually only read them a day after. It's all fated I guess.

Called XiaoShi, headed down.

Life is... unpredictable. Fated.

Deepest condolenses to Xue, your Mom and Dad, Debbie, the rest of your family, and all who have suffered this loss.

let me spend some time remembering this wonderful man i never knew.




For anyone who knew him..
I googled him, and this is the legend he left behind.

Heartfelt messages from a friend (scroll down)
Straits Times
His name is mentioned right at the bottom
I really don't know if this is him, but i believe so.
His memorial; The man, captured forever in cyberspace.

Sheryl's Sister's wedding.


The pictures are somewhere I'm sure. =)

Everyone was veryvery pretty, groom was veryvery nice, and they all enjoyed licking cream off each other's faces i'm sure! lol.

Steph treated the girls to mani pedi session(17 Nov) , after which Sher, Xy and I wandered ard for abit before i headed off to Cliff's Dad's birthday dinner. Veryvery nice dinner. Hazelnut pralines, 2 chocolate fountains, lobsters, prawns, and heaps of cheese. I LIKE. =D
and yes, i stood next to the chocolate fountain for quite a long time. =) well.. walked around a little la.. had to grab some pralines too what.. hehe.
Happy Birthday Uncle!

Wedding day (18 Nov): OMG I LOVE THE WEDDING CAR!!!!! Crashed at Sher's place the night before to annoy the shit outta her. (succeeded. she shat the next morning. heh.)

Woke up last (for once after Sher!), got ready, hated mysdelf for bringing lacy bra =/, watched the jiemei's torture the groom and his xiong di-s!!! Inclusive of licking cream of each other's face and eating wasabi, then finally, serenading Steph outside her room door with a love poem!

Ate a lot of tofu.

Headed to hotel, fell in love with the one-seater sofa thingie in the couple's suite. Couple got drenched a little cos old school car had no windows, but that's ok- Shower of Blessing!! The superior ones have given their approval and blessings!

Changed, made up, messed around with surgical tape (brittish flag!!) and chicken fillets. And it was time to head down for last preparations. I hosted solemnisation and was one half of the dinner host. Waited for cue from wrong person... =/ SORRY!

BUT i think every thing went well, was rehearsing while Sher n Xy did reception- GOOD JOB LADIES! heh. Oh. We jiemei-s rocked YamSeng! hahahaa. waited till the boys were outta breathe to throw in our effort! =p The boys and girls made a good team! heh.

Anyone looking to hire a female yamseng party, Please contact me!!!

Bride's evening gown was self-designed and B-E-A-Utiful!!!! Heaps of talent there! heh. I can never do a good design for myself cos i have no idea what i want! Too fickle. heh.

Stole heaps of flowers after the end of wedding, met Benjy. Everybody loves Benjy!

Sher went back to hall to study and do exam prep.. I went home to crash.

Hope all's good sherriepooie.

Wedding's are very fun, but tiring. Too much planning. I'm seriously considering eloping.

To the deliriously happy lovebirds, May you have a wonderfully blissful marriage, complete with all the little details that makes life beautifull and perfect!!!

Just so you know.

Feels so good that you are back.
Feels like you never left.
I like the way we somehow manage to talk as though we never really stopped.
I like the way you sound- Happy, bubbling with excitement.
Your aura; confident, independent, in-charge, carefree, bright. Simply gorgeous.
Extremely proud of you;
For all the milestones covered in the past few months,
For growing up,
For the way you are handling your life.
For not quitting.

xoxo
A&F-

It hurts that you chose the sharpest knife to prove your point. Double edged, lined with barbed wire. Oh, and twisting it in at the most vulnerable spot was simply magnificent!
