last post of the.... whenever

Okay hi guys this will most likely be the last post you see from me until 2 weeks later so savor this one!

I'll just talk about my life the past two days; don't expect pictures because Celstine @sentirbizarre has yet to upload them so you'll get to see them next time!



TODAY!

SO I woke up at 1.23PM today due to me sleeping at 4AM the previous night..
I called my brother and went down to the coffeeshop to meet him and Bryan for lunch. I wanted to eat eggs and toast but they didn't have the toast that I wanted so I refused to eat that.
Then I had duck noodles. Afterwards I went back up and just wasted my youth away. Honestly I forgot what I was doing.

Anyway went out for lunch with kenny. A quick one cause I had to make a quick stop at the phua house to borrow xiaoxiaophua's psp to be my bff on my trip :p So, yeah. After he went for work I went to take the bus to the xxp house. Anyway, I'm like friends with niunai (the barking family dog) already okay! No more being scared of him! So xxp dad was just leaving and he let me in. Waited for xxp as she was going out as well so we went off together.




Sent her off to the bus interchange and then went down to bishan myself and met movin. To uh, Life of Pi it up lo! His words.
So after buying tix for the 7.10 show we went down to Din Tai Fung for dinz.
OH WAIT! We saw the huiqing there at J8! It was really good seeing that crazy girl jump out from no where and surprising me, I haven't seen her in a long long time and I actually kinda missed her craziness.
And yeah as I was saying. We went for dinner. But we both weren't that hungry for a main course so we got XLBs and some yam XLB and the mango pudding too. Okay all three damn good need to go back for more. Esp the yam xlb and mango pudding. REALLY! The normal xlb... Dynasty Paradise does it better!

Anyway I was just being lame telling movin some random stories and anecdotes and whatever. Then after eating finish we went up for the movie and were about 10 minutes late and just in time for the end of the adverts.
So yeah. After watching, we made our way back home slowly cause we've got wooooork the next morning. #LifeOfMo&Zi
So being the ultimate gentleman mo sent me back. I was impressed he knew where my house roughly was. But it turns out that it's just because he sent me back once 2 years ago on a rainy day when I had a fencing bag. LOOOOOOOOOOL it's been awhile. Not bad.

Anyway had a good day today and tonight, thanks mo for the company and treat! I'll really have to treat you when I'm back!

... I have yet to pack my luggage btw. It's actually 1.16AM and my flight is at 12mn tmr.
So. Here's my schedule for tmr.

10AM-6PM work
6-6.45 home
6.45-7 bathe and prepare
7 leave house

WTF?

Aunt coming to pick me and bro up, kinda early cause still gotta pick grandma out too. Essentially, that means I have no time to pack. LOL

Either that or I'll not have time to sleep (much)



---




Yesterday was great though.


What did I do in the morning. I forgot again...
Oh wait I think I did nothing much.
Ok fast forward to 5pm.

Met the people at Yishun MRT, Zhiyi Kelvin Christian Chifa Jarren Litong Celestine Fithri Irsyad Pogsiew. Haven't seen most of them in awhile so it was good seeing them.
Made our way down to city hall and bought starbucks cause it was having 1 for 1.... Yeah.
Then we walked down in the drizzle to the Arts House. Kelvin and Pogsiew were being damn lame acting like they're my bodyguards. Not that I mind.

Upon reaching we headed to Timbre where the star of the night was. We were actually there for the piano recital by my dear cousin Ray Ong who is 9 this year. He managed to seduce Christian by the end of the night through his cuteness.


Aunt got a table for all of us and she got pizzas and fries and chicken for us. Ordered a round of drinks and being the indecisive person that I am I started with a can't-go-wrong mojito. Ate, talked, snapped pictures, the usual. Then things started getting gay when Zhiyi and christian ordered a shot of Blowjob each. Then they slurped it down. Cute. Not. Gay. Yes.
So I was trying Zhiyi's white russian and decided that I liked it so I got one for myself too. I can't remember everyone's drinks but Chifa had this green drink that's called Grasshopper and it tasted quite nice. Yeah everyone was trying everyone else's HAHA.
Best part is the nostrils got a mocktail BUT she was the one moaning that she felt uncomfortable. DK what to do with her fmfl


Then we watched the piano recital. I was sitting with poggo and xtian. Jarren fell in love with Petrina Sarah. Ok cool
Then my cousin played and pogo was like "what am I doing with my life"
Me too.


After the recital, petrina sarah ownself encore 2 xmas carols.
LOL

Then we hung around and I totally cmi and starting laughing uncontrollably when idk who sabohed Jarren to the piano. He looked lost and sat down and played to everyone the SUPER noob mdm chen rendition of Ode To Joy. YOU HAD TO BE THERE! I was laughing so bad there were tears LOLOOL.
Some small girl was playing 1D's What Makes You Beautiful and we were all singing to it.
Okay and xtian got my cousin's autograph

and my cousin is very cute




After we left, went to toilet. Then all headed back to Timbre once more for another round!
Zhiyi wanted everyone to have a keg of erdinger but no stock so he had to settle for a lonely pint of heineken by himself LOL #foreveralone #waitno #aluminium
HA
Tried this thing called Bombay Sapphire and I loved it I think it's relatively mild but amazayne
Got some poached squid too. We ordered fries and nachos and soup and pasta and idk what
Then talk, pix, whatever. Just the usual lepak activities, but with the loved people. LOLL doesn't even make grammatical sense ya forgive me I'm a lil tired.
After most left, it was left w nostrils, xtian and zhiyi.
We walked down to clark quay and went to find hillary and jill lim. Then we left and went down to the bar area to find my brother cause he happened to be around there for drinks with his friends after his prom.

Then we went home not knowing it was the last train, just stroll slowly.
LOL

Then my dad dropped them off then I accompanied him BACK TO CLARK QUAY to pick my bro and his friends up cause I scared he fall asleep while driving as it was alr 1+ 2am.

Then the bro gf, him, dad and I went for some supper at 313@SEMBAWANG before sending gf back then finally we went home and I slept at 4am.

THATS WHY I WOKE AT 1.23.


Ok srsly need to pack my luggage already.

Talk again next time. LOL


kbye.



By the way.
I liked Life of Pi a lot.
I wanna read it.

Hello? I haven't been posting in quite awhile.


In fact I'm only doing this on the train home! I've been working recently and I know I am lagging quite a few posts. No worries - no work for me on Monday! I'll be able to post then.


For now, I'm going home early today because I have the worst migraine on earth.
Plus my shoulders were being gay aching so badly. I just couldn't handle the overwhelming anger that I was feeling as well. About what I shall not tell you, but anyway, a throbbing headache, achy shoulders and being in the foulest and most depressed mood on earth is horrible. I tried my best not to show it but I guess it didn't work.

In the middle of doing the most hateful job on earth (washing up, and washing 10001 things at that. The repetitive nature of the action of washing ten thousand Tupperware can really kill a man's spirit I swear. It feels like there is nothing else to live for. Oh and don't forget the sink is so low it kills you back. Add in the migraine and shoulders. Enjoy your Sunday!), I totay cried a bit cause its very pain.
Then I tried to be a man about it but no. This really nice colleague called Jeffrey saw and was very concerned. He is my favourite kind person tonight! He took over the rest of my job and chased me home.

Thank you Jeffrey! I will always remember how nice he was to me tonight although I may or may not see him much anymore unless I'm working there.

abrupt grad night ending post

Hi guys! I'm finally starting my post!

It's... exactly 1 week since grad night, and that means this post is 7 days overdue!

But let's not dwell on that teeny tiny fact and get started on this post.

But before that happens, I'd like to express my gratitude towards the one and only bbg, joleen, who went to shop with me to pick out my dress!

She was a great help, and an even better company. I didn't get to hang out with her much before that shopping trip because I was busy with my exams and all.

One does really get cut off from the social world due to O levels don't they.

So anyway thanks for asking - my prom night was fun.

Hahahha yeah okay I'll start from the day itself.

On Saturday I woke up at 7 or was it 8? Anyway I was totally drained and feeling like a zombie because I'd slept late the previous night living life after O's the typical mainstream YOLO way yeah.

But I had a fencing course at Singapore Poly.

SO my dad went to pick the gays candice and jolie up before weixuan, and then we made our way down to the poly.

Once we were there we kinda didn't know where the exact venue was so we walked around like lost sheep before Mr Wong told us where to go and we did.

Yeah Hugang taught us about stretching and some other stuff which my sleep deprived brain cannot recall.

Then it was neon's turn to talk about the rules of fencing before coach norbert took over and gave us some mental strength techniques and advice.

This all lasted from 9+ until 1, I think.

In between we had this practical session related to Hugang's lecture and there was the foam thing, the barbells station as well as the agility ladder which took hugang all of $4 and a roll of duct tape to improvise

Then we had the unhealthy fencer's lunch otherwise known as KFC.

HA on a serious note I realized SG fencers usually flock to KFC if there is one in the vicinity either after trainings and/or competitions. Really. We went that day at SP, we used to go after night training at clement sometimes, after competitions at JE sports hall, and then today again at toa payoh, but I'll talk about today in another post.

Then my dad picked us up and I dozed up. By the time my eyes fluttered open gracefully from my afternoon nap right after a greasy lunch (ugh) I realized those faggots were nowhere to be seen and I was back downstairs of my house. LOLwat

Magic exists or is it just... a car..?

Okay we all need to take a minute's worth of social interaction break and just gaze at the above picture.

My best friend aka Zhiyi is now officially checking in at the airport. He called me a few minutes ago and I totally cried. He's gonna be gone for just a week but I foresee 24x7 hours of loneliness in the near, bleak future.

But if you asked me honestly I would say no la, I didn't cry for him

AHAHHAHAHA

actually I think I really only cried because I was having a shitty day and I was super sleep deprived and now my bff was overseas... the entire thang was too overwhelming

so I had to shed a few manly tears

But no fear! I'm gonna get back up (actually I already did) and face the next week like a man

I might be working next week though.

Can't say I'm gonna be able to commit to it but I sure am going to experience new things I guess.

I'll probably just quit after like 4 or 5 days though, mark my words.

I wouldn't actually even have taken up the job if not for the fact that my friends are working there too.

I mean, I never did quite like F&B jobs that require me to listen to the mantra, "the customer is always right" because I've seen some really unreasonable customers....

I'm really only working just to kill time

I would have volunteered at SPCA, except for the fact that they refuse to accept volunteers who cannot commit to at least 3 months.

That's choosy! and mean.

roar

But back to my story.

(finally)

So when I got home it was already 2+ and just as I was about to collapsed into my invitingly sexy bed, my mother asked me to go out nearby to buy I forgot what.

So I did.

By the time I reached home it was pretty late (to prepare for prom) and I went to bathe.

Right after I got out of the shower I went to my room and saw a jungle

Just kidding. I did see two monsters though.

Yeah... Zhiyi and Litong were at my place to get ready.

Then we made our way to school after waiting for the slow princess ziman who took such a long time that we ended up being late but hey - the party doesn't start til we get there

hahahaha only joking

...but really.

It didn't start before we'd arrived

Along the way I slipped on my right eye's contact lens and BOY did it sting like a fat hornet.

My hands were dirty with hairspray and I totally smeared that crap all over my eyeball.

I wish I could insert a clever name but I forgot the name. Sclera? Conjunctiva? I forgot... My Human Eye chapter was not the best bio chapter of mine

Luckily for me I ain't blind yet.

I went to the school toilet to put the second one on because I wasn't confident of my ability to be able to put that on in th car.

I've successfully mastered the art of wearing/taking off contacts with long ass nails on the right eye, but not for the left. It's a first world problem/skill.

Remember these faces.

Cause they were hell to the yeah awesome company for the night.

Except that this picture is missing Meixuan and Yuqing, otherwise it'd be complete.

But yeah. I was expecting some honestly lame event because the schedule online was totally boring ... Speeches and more speeches and then videos. It wasn't what I had in mind actually.

And the girls (fithri jessica belle etc) and I were planning to book a loft or hotel for an after-party, but NOBODY got around to actually doing it so we left it at that... cause we were all busy. It didn't seem to be a problem at first until that night when we realized we couldn't party all night. Damn that!

So yeah I wasn't really anticipating for the prom at all in all honesty. 

There were quite a few people who asked me where I'd bought my dress and how much and stuff, and many people told me they think I spent a lot of time, effort and money on that but the answer is surprisingly NO.

Here's the real deal about my dress!

I had in mind a simple dress, straps, fitted waist, skirt until knee length or so. Just a really simple dress. I saw no point in spending a lot of money on prom stuff that you wouldn't wear again ever.

So how did I get to there, buying a masqueradey dress?!

Yeah although I had a simple dress in mind and I had low patience for prolonged shopping, I still wanted to buy a dress that I would like and not just walk in and grab any dress, because I'm not some VS model who looks amazayn in anything!

So to town it was with friends who asked me out. I knew in my heart I wouldn't find anything I liked at towny town because I just knew it. True enough I was right. However I actually sorta found this dress that I liked a lot, it fitted my ideal dress idea.

It was from Miss Selfridge, and was black and dark green and was $89.90.

It was a dress that I could re-wear again for other occasions.

The only thing was, it was opening day that day, and the dressing room queue was totally disgusting. I queued for 5 minutes and left.

I went back another day... But it was only available in size 10 and up and that was too big.

So I went with Joleen to town another day again. But I had a feeling I would find my dress then because she was just my favorite shopping partner. 

And true enough I did. I bought my dress and heels from the same store in Far East. Hahhaaha yeahhhh.

The dress was $85. the heels $70

Total $155

But it being Far East you can totally bargain and so.... The cheapskate ziman bargained!

oi what bargaining is an important skill especially when in china okay? That time I bought a bag there in guangzhou last year and it was 95 rmb and chrislyn wanted 1 too.

end up from one bag 95RMB become 2 bag 90RMB

wtf right?! 2 bags cheaper than 1 bag original price

Ya anyway I got both dress and heels for a total of $120.

Should have asked for $100 shucks LOL

Yeahhh so besides my heels and dress I bought these totally peachy oriental earrings from F21 at $8. 

And my mother made me buy glitter to make my hair into an edward cullen so that's an extra $6.90

aaaaaand that was it for my cheap prom shit!

No clutch - threw my shit in litong's bag and zhiyi's pockets

No accessories - my dress was probably enough... and the glittery edward cullen hair

So yeah. I'm normally a lazy dresser and I still was that day. Just dress heels earrings.

So... nope. I didn't spend that much on prom as you might have thought.

Prom is more of the company than the clothes, I guess.

So initially it was the typical speeches and everything. I wonder how they chose the valedictorians.

AND THEN the fun finally began!

At first it was just mingling around with friends taking pictures and all but as the night went on...

Yeah wait a minute.

So the DJ was like getting 2 guys and 2 girls for some game and it was like Lucas, Kelvin, Fithri and I.

AHAHA shit I just realized all except fithri are from 4F.

Then they expected us to dance omgwtf. Okay that was pure embarrassing because... dude it just was!

So Fithri and I REALLY had zero idea how to dance to gangam style and Low and what not.

I mean you just don't gyrate each other or do the gangnam style in... dresses. That's just crude! 

So we erm hung around like gays and yeah it was baaad. LOL they should have chosen like some gay slow song or something. At least *that* would be danceable in heels and dress??

Not that I would want to slow dance with Fithri. Or Kelvin. Or Lucas.

I'm just... Yeah.

*shuffles feet awkwardly*

Above shows my girls! (and team mates)

It's really been a great pleasure knowing them.

Did you know that, even if I went to different school (in this case YTSS) I would still know them? LOL

My mum put first choice YTSS and I refused and kicked a fuss and ended up I changed it to CCHY first choice.

My score was eligible for YTSS as well la. But CCHY was my first choice ultimately

But if I went to YTSS I would know Fithri through her sister probably

And I met jessica in p6 through our brothers who were classmates

Soooo. Are we fated or what? LOL

And getting back to the story...

At first I was kinda awkward cause there wasn't much to do but after the DJ got the crowd hyped up, a makeshift dance floor was created and after awhile I got sucked into it and found myself with Jessica, Fithri and Denise. Ok they were so high that I found myself to be so unhigh and out of place. So I didn't really dance cause it was just plain weird cause I wasn't with the atmosphere and i was feeling awkward. Just plain awkward.

So ex-ah-cuse me and I forgot why suddenly out of the blue Meixuan Yuqing Vanessa appeared and they made me dance. Then came Denise with Chantal.

And all of a sudden we were all just high and dancing and shouting-singing the lyrics of whichever song that came on. Chantal was being a ziman and feeling awkward so I made her dance too LOL

Yeah it was really crazy, CCHY was totally awesome.

You really missed out if you didn't get to dance. Being caught up in the crowd of friends, everyone's dancing and shouting and being crazy. It was like clubbing except that with friends. And that's just even better. Okay la, I'm a good girl, I don't have a clubbing night life yet leh. Not that I want to anyway after hearing all the crazy shit that goes on from other friends. Not my style bro.

I'll be at home knitting if you need me.

lolwat

So yeah it was the best YOLO feeling that night

I realize I probably sound quite noob describing this event cause erm yeah I.. just scrolled up.

But I don't know how to describe it either.

At first I was quite sian that CCHY was having grad night in the school hall because it's just ... everyone else held theirs at swanky ball rooms of hotels and stuff.

But our principal said "you start your journey in chung cheng, you end your journey in chung cheng"

Well, I guess all's well that ends well because everyone totally had a blast.

In ball rooms  you probably just eat dinner and make conversation and take pictures and go home.

But in the CCHY MPH, you can not care about the noise level and just really party.

And that's really the best part of it all.

When I first entered this school I was super unhappy and angry because I wanted to go another ssh that my parents didn't allow.

But now that I'm graduating, I think, this decision forced upon on me is really one of the best choices they have ever made for me.

Not many schools around this region, or in fact, none, have Fencing.

I was in neo's pioneer batch together with my girls. 

Fencing is a soft spot to me because I had many memorable experiences with the fencers and in fencing, especially so in my sec 1 days and at tanglin trainings.

One is not able to fully summarize and draw a parallel in emotion towards the fencing journey.

True story.

love my juniors like my mans, xxp, gay xinyi, my girls, etc.

Wouldn't have met them without fencing!

I love cchy cause of fencing and cause of my classmates and most of all because of teachers, particularly Ms Trixie Lim who has since left the school. Love her most of all.

After prom we went to Macdonald's for supper and chilled there for quite a bit.

Wanted to head to my place to party but I guess everyone got tired and in the end my father sent us all home.

LOL

Anyway I realized this is seriously a sorry excuse for a grad night post because it's been 1 week and 1 day since. Yeah I dragged my post from sat til sun.

I didn't really mention much names in particular to express my gratitude for having them in my sec ssh life because I don't wish to leave out any so erm. Yeah.

Hahhaha

Im not really in the blogging mood now but I do owe quite a bit so I'll do my best to churn out blogwworthy posts for you guys LOL

But really. I had an amazing grad night especially when I was dancing with the girls. It was a new experience for me and I had a lot of fun just being high. I also got to know a friend better and that's Chantal. As Vanessa said, it's funny that we are all talking much more only after graduation.

I guess the idea of losing or leaving things or people behind makes us treasure them more.

Nonetheless, I'm still looking forward to my tertiary education. I believe the next 2-3 years will breeze by, and whilst I am glad at the prospects of being able to integrate myself into a new culture and a new life, I know that these are the people who have seen me grow up. As our lives inevitably courses on, diverging us into different streams, I will always hold a special place for these people in my heart.

Many of them have been more than their roles for me, especially the teachers.

I think, a really, extremely, super duper, ultra cliche phrase to sum up my education years in CCHY would honestly be this, that in CCHY, I was touched by love.

YA OK CALL ME CHEESY OR GAY OR DISGUSTING OR BONER KILL

But really okay?!

Thinking about that cheesy phrase, it holds really true for me. Many people have doted and cared and loved me in cchy. I mean yeah my family too of course, but really, the concern and love and all that you receive from cchy is really overwhelming.

Although there were many lows, there were even more highs, and if given the chance, I would gladly rewind time and replay every single moment and feel every single emotion, good or bad, again.

in short

Hello! Unfortunately I'm not going to be posting about my chalet just YET.

I'm gonna head out in about half an hour to 45 minutes' time to meet the doods for a movie!

Just posting like 3 pictures to keep you in suspense ^_^

I've just woken up. Today breaking dawn releases! I'm no huge fan but I'm still going to go watch it soon. I really liked Twilight ALOT, after I saw it I went to read all the books. But New Moon was bah, Eclipse I didn't even have the strength to finish. Breaking Dawn pt 1 was okay.

The books were definitely better

But as much as I whine about the movies sucking

I"M STILL GOING TO WATCH

just for kicks.

Here's me and wongsy who's at Japan by now!

She only came for the first day and Tinghui and I sent her to the car at night! Initially we were planning to surprise her at the airport but the NSRCC chalet was just SO inconvenient in its location.

The shuttle bus would stop and we wouldn't be able to get back cause wongsy's flight was at 1am.

Anyway wong, hope you're having a good time there today! :)

Take care and remember to stalk the girls!

Have fun ^_^

Not sure when this murder took place cause I was busy sleeping on the second day.

LOL

Yeah I totally knocked out by then cause I didn't sleep the whole night.

ok I gotta go prepare now. goodbye!

maskeraid

Here's like a sneaky peeky peek of my prom dress. The theme was masquerade. HA actually it's not very sneaky peeky because prom was long over but it is the first picture of prom I've ever posted up on here so erm.. Yeah.

Photo credits to nisey! Say hi to Chantal, me, Meixuan and Vanessa! 

I was like spending most of my time with them and the other girls on the makeshift dance floor.

More about that in the upcoming blog post, so stay tuned! :)

Yet you still value the things you've lost the most. Because the things you've lost are still perfect in your head. They never rusted. They never broke. They are made of the memories you once had, which only grow rosier and brighter, day by day. They are made of the dreams of how wonderful things could have been and must never suffer the indignity of actually still existing. Of being real. Of having flaws. Of breaking and deteriorating.
Only the things you no longer have will always be perfect.

- I Wrote This For You: The Efficiency And Perfection Of The Lost

Hello! I haven't been blogging as I've been busy with class chalet and prom and sometimes when I had the time I was just busy with something else. 

Anyway, expect an update from me Thursday evening! Until then, xx.

You called me up again just to break me like a promise, so casually cruel in the name of being honest.

I have been so busy this week, I don't even know why I'm blogging now actually.
While I have been out pretty much 12 hours a day except for today (miracles *do* happen), I have not brought out my DSLR. Yes, Gladys was right, buying a DSLR makes one lazier. Suppose if I could turn back time I would not have bo-... Nah, I would have bought a DSLR all the same anyway. Ha!
However I think I'd like to be able to buy a point-and-shoot camera that I could bring everywhere - I'm looking at a pink Canon Ixus or Powershot, but more of the Ixus.


I have recently fell in love with Ailee from the kpop world. I really like her a lot because she can sing! She was actually born and raised in America, and was educated there to, or so wikipedia says. Her english covers of 'Halo' and 'Greatest Love Of All' and etc are really good, so I decided to fall in love with her. When I saw her cover of Beast's On Rainy Days, (that's one of the FEW kpop songs I listen to, and it's also my favorite kpop song!) I knew I had to love her. LOL

And I found out she acted in Dream High? SO I NEED TO WATCH IT! Hillary phua where can I watch it!? I know you stalk me so you can reply me on whatsapp once you see this ;)





Anyway, I've been heading to the bugis-orchard area nearly everyday and I'm so sick of going there BUT NO! I have to go again tomorrow! I need to exchange my doc martens... blah. I'm so lazy!


Okay, I'll probably summarize my week in one of the next few posts as i blog again over the weekend, hopefully complete with pictures.
