happy meal.
Good day good day!

Ran 2km in the morning with Short Girl!
Confession: my last run prior to this was dated 24th October 2010, 6 months and 5 days ago.

And honestly, I miss running. 
Brought back memories of ODAC days, sigh.

Running past LT5, Uncle Henry's, the locker area; through the Concourse, sigh.
I miss SR, a lot.

On our cooling down round Ms Zeenat walked into school; 2 girls in yellow started moving to a less noticeable area in the Assembly Plaza.

Saw Miss Liu, and when I tapped her to say hi she totally got a shock hahaha.
Yay she's planning a trekking trip this coming Monday! More like I plan admin she plan route; but yeah you get my drift.
Awesome possum :D

Too early for work; walked Short Girl to work since it's only one stop away from my work place.

Sigh, and honestly, this job makes me weary towards taking Business in Uni; I really cannot stand structure.

Doing the same thing over and over again's totally not my thing.
I guess I need new things once in a while; else my level of interest will plunge dramatically.

And yeah, for those who know me well; if I like something I'll put in 200% effort, else. Sigh it's just hard. Although yeah sometimes i try hard enough and everything's okay.

Rushed home after work to drop off my shoes and running clothes before meeting Nelson and KuangJie for dinner at Vivo.
Superduperultramega filling, they really know how to spam the sides so we'd be full. Except K's luh. The genius ordered some fried seafood platter meant for 2. Everything was fried, no distinction btw main and side. Hahaha. We were both too full to finish up, really. N's was okay; his sides were vegetables -.-" After his apple strudel, he sat back to watch while telling K and me that we shouldnt waste food, instead of offering a helping hand. Or mouth in this case. Awesome friend huh? Hahahahahaha. Had a glass if beer each; yeah we were all uber full thereafter. And they kept laughing at me cause I'm still stuck with my job while they're slacking away. Hmph!

Lepak-ed at the Sky Garden; wanted to cab home but.. Okay long story cut short, when we got a spot to flag one, majority of the cabs were red. What'd you expect; it was 8 mins to midnight.
Planned on taking NR6; at the bus stop we realized we had buses to get us home. 100-ed with K; and I almost went deaf cause the volume of music he listens to is kinda high. Well at least in my standards. Sharing ear-piece with him, gah. Tried to lower the volume once, only to have him realize it and it was back to square one.
We both fell asleep, but when the bus reached Serangoon, that boy couldn't wake up. I got scared for a moment; and the driver was visibly pissed cause he wanted to clear the bus.

KuangJie and Nelson; amidst the full-ness, I had a great time tonight. Thank you! And yeah, thanks for doing what you guys did. Saved me the trouble, cause i'd prolly never ever do it :)
And hahaha KuangJie, yes I'll keep my phone on over the next couple of days in case you need a drink. Random much, he called me close to 11pm on Wed night asking if i was free to accompany him for a drink.
Anw, best of luck yeah!

Pictures up some other day!

Labels:


straight ahead.

It's gotta start somewhere; it's gotta start somehow.
Well I guess some things just can't be explained.

Here begins official attempt #1.

So much for hoping that the oversight on my end would expedite this whole issue.
At the end of the day, I'm back to square one.
Bittersweet; I don't know if I should be sad or glad that everything's still in tact.

Oh wells.
It's a sticky situation, really.

I need the ability to ignore everything else and locate the voice that goes, "just go straight, make no detours."
Dear God, please help me :/

letters.

So, people have been receiving news from Universities, I haven’t.
Okay I’d be honest and say that I’m not expecting anything so soon.
 
As worrisome as I may be, there’s somehow this peace of mind; I know that He has a plan.
Honestly, if I were to sit you down and tell you everything that happened to me during the A’s up till the day I submitted my applications for the 3 local Unis, you’d agree that its not a mere coincidence. I can see His hand at work.
Even that day. I was asking W for his opinion with regards to the course I should take in SIM (I signed up for 2 because I couldn’t make up my mind) and he asked, “You got in alr meh?”
Come to think of it, yeah I was oblivious to the fact that He has His way of doing things; He’ll put me in the course He knows is right for me.
Sometimes, we’re so pre-occupied with achieving our own goals in life that we forget that we’re actually supposed to be living out His divine plan.
 
But honestly, NUS/SMU FASS please. Last resort, NTU.
I kinda not want to go to SIM.
Partly cause of the exuberant pricing. Although daddy has reminded me time and time again not to let the prices affect my decision, but still :/
 
Quite surprisingly, I got over the results quite fast.
After crying my heart out that Friday afternoon, I didn’t cry anymore.
Yes, there were a few occasions where I was on the verge of tears; but somehow no tears flowed.
I guess I should be glad.
 
Maybe it’ll all sink in after the Universities reply?
Idk, I hope not.
 
Afterall, I know everything happens for a reason. I can testify to that, having gone through the gates of SRJC.
It’s been one of the best things that has ever happened to me during my 19 years of existence, really.

Okay; deep down, maybe I'm afraid after all :/

manhattan fish market.
Today: Awesome.

Comcentre-ed after Easter Service cause I wanted to change my iPhone, but the person said the button issue was due to software issue, so she just upgraded my software for me. Dang. I wanted a new phone damn badly haha.
Solo-shopping in town afterwards for close to 5 hours cause Jermaine suddenly couldn't meet me, and I was too lazy to head home since I'd be meeting Vanessa, Nina and Yong Siong for dinner in the evening. Wait, make it that I didn't trust myself to get out of the house in the evening if I went back home haha.

Ironically, I only bought stuff in the first and last shop I entered. Shopping alone can be fun sometimes, and today I kinda enjoyed myself roaming the streets of town all alone :)

Oh, what are the odds of one side of your wedges giving way and the other side following suit in 8 hours? That happened to me, annoyingly enough. The second side gave way after I showed the 3 of them what happened haha. Talk about coincidence.
Couldn't find any nice wedges, ended up getting slippers instead. So much for telling myself not to spend anymore, I walked around town the entire day with one side spoilt, but alas, it was too severe to be ignored after the 2nd side gave way D:









bb's seriously a bimbo; she wanted to take a photo but she ended up power off-ing the camera instead. *shakes head*
Honestly, meeting the 3 of them really made my weekend end on a fantabulous note.

Work week, here I come! (I hope I survive; I'm getting sian of my job alr!)

unknown.
I guess I spoke too soon; I kinda went 'trekking' today. Henderson Wave-ed with Constance, Yao Yang, Shangyang and Waii Hoong; and having gone through the Great Hikes, we decided to walk there from Vivo. Ended up going up endless flights of steps and walking down winding paths through Mount Faber Park, it seriously felt like ODAC all over again.
Surprisingly enough, the guys were cui too, even though 2 out of 3 of them're in the Army. Its been ages since I last perspired so much. Well yeah it's also been ages since I worked out properly. Swimming doesn't really count cause I don't sweat and all. The sweltering heat made things worse but come to think of it, I kinda enjoyed myself during the journey.

Look what the extreme heat did to my phone:

I couldn't even hold it, it was seriously super duper ultra mega hot. Too much metal I think.

Too cui for any pictures, but I had a great time lepak-ing under the sun while catching up and playing cards.
And I look kinda burnt nao D:

OH I ALMOST FORGOT. I witnessed a glass door shatter right before my very eyes. Scary much, but the way it shattered was nice, hahaha.

That aside, I think there's smth seriously wrong with me; I haven't been feeling myself of late. Esp my appetite, I'm hungry, but after one or two mouths, I'm full. Gosh, this sucks; really.

Sigh.

Labels:


odac great hike 2009.
Chanced upon pictures from Great Hike 2009; we all looked so different back then.




I burst out laughing when I looked at the photos, brought back hell load of memories..

I miss ODAC; I feel like going on a hike around Singapore all over again. Insane, I know.
Be it in the scorching heat or in the pouring rain; bring it on.

Labels:


wonders to be revealed.

superduperultramegahappygirl92 :)

1. The work week has ended! :D
2. Fish & Co-ed just now! :DDDD

Thanks for the treat! It's been ages since we last caught up; I really had a great time tonight :)
Too bad Miss Liu couldn't join us :(

Labels:


everything.

Rescheduled my afternoon 'appointment' for Monday, so I extended my OT till 6pm.
Managed to clear most of my open cases! Honestly, if my TL's gonna kp me again next week, I got nothing to say to her alr. 
I think work's been getting worse. The thought of quitting soon's really damn tempting. The only thing holding me back is the pay. Gah.

Train-ed to Commonwealth to pick Charmaine up from work and we bumped into my aunt, my cousin, his wife and my nephew! Char and me planned today's matching outfits, my aunt thought it was our uniform hahaha.
Jurong Point-ed for dinner, and we bought the same shirt! Attire for our next meetup! :)

Long ride home from Boon Lay all alone, hmph >:(
Heh but I still ♥ you luh!

Meeting Short Nation tmr; we've been wanting to meet up since CNY but our schedules kept clashing. Finally (Y)

AND DID I MENTION THAT CARRISSA'S GONNA COME TO SINGAPORE TMR?!
Meeting the Bitches for dinner tmr night, full attendance for the first time in 2 years! :D :D :D

Weekends like these are awesome, really. Plus I have smth to look forward to on Monday after work, the perfect way to chase away the Monday blues :)

Labels:


madness.

Meet-up with the ODACians & Miss Liu:
- 10 plates of fried rice, 30 xiaolongbaos, 10 yam dumplings, 2 plates of dou miao, 2 plates of prawn fritters and 3 bowls of hot&sour soup shared amongst 11 people @ Din Tai Fung
- Chun Wei was being uber retarded (what’s new?)
- Nice time catching up at Starbucks after dinner.
- Ordered 10 drinks, one of the staff there was freaking bloody annoying.
- Security chased us out of Marina Square
- Almost got locked in the mall.
- Took the last bus for 133 home with WanRu, the driver went damn slowly -.-”

Its heartwarming to see that we still meet up occasionally; but it’s a sad thing that this group doesn’t expand over time. It starts with the 20th batch and stops essentially at the 22nd batch. Even so, it’s only represented by Constance, Vanessa and myself.

Plans for last week totally didn’t go to plan, turns out only 2 went according to plan. But yay me met all my girls except YunJia & Cheryl! :D
This week.. Well we’ll wait and see if everything goes to plan heh.
Or maybe I shouldn’t even make plans luh. Ah, we’ll see (:

far and wide.

Assumptions; are they necessary?

Math, GP and Econs; we need to make assumptions.
History; Miss Ong always says, "Historians never assume."

In my opinion, assumptions are bad.
But what if it turns out that I'm right after all?

So. To assume or not to assume? I guess I wouldn't really know the truth unless I ask, and I don't want to be too quick to jump to a conclusion.

Dear diary,
I really wished I knew.

Quit going around in circles.
Let's just go straight to the point.

Much love and appreciation,
Jessica.

Fish & Co.


Sucks, I didn't get to eat my Fish & Co this week.
It doesn't help that I'm having a major craving for it now.
Rawr.

Person, hurry choose a day pleaseeeeeee!

Labels:


trial and error.

There is a risk I have to take.
Problem is, do I want to take the chance and risk finding out the truth?
Or would I prefer living in self-denial?

This sucks, I've always wanted to find out the truth. But when opportunities come knocking on my door, I'm afraid to open it.

JUST.WHAT.IS.WRONG.WITH ME?

speed of light.
Met Jasmine and Jia Han for a while just now to get my passport pictures, and they’re the nicest ones so far, apart from those taken in school (with the exception of SR). The 2 of them uh, 30 mins became 1 hour, I stoned at the bus stop for damn long while playing Doodle Jump.
 
Told myself I’d sleep by 12mn, but at 12mn, I was still printing out SIM application forms. Cut the photos, filled in 1/3 forms, painted the fingernails on one hand purple, wrote Miss Liu’s card, packed my things, ironed my clothes and before I knew it, 2am was coming.
So much for telling myself I’d get myself enough sleep tonight. I kinda have a feeling I won’t be going to bed that early after meeting the ODACians later on; for all you know, WanRu and me will sit below my void deck for some HTHT session again. Plus, the happiness’s bound to keep me awake, I know myself too well.
Even as I type this, I’m all hyped up cause I can’t wait to see Miss Liu! Let’s hope she doesn’t cancel on us at the eleventh hour or smth *fingers crossed*
But even if she does, I’m still looking forward to seeing everyone tmr! :D

hey ya oh.
Sucky day at work yesterday, but the after work plans made up for everything.

Met bb for tau huay! <3 <3


Long long time since I ate tau huay! Reminded me of all the ODAC sessions which would somehow end with a visit to the tau huay shop. Ah, the good ol' days.
Caught up, cam-whored a little. With the lousy front camera of my iPhone. Aye, but the people inside the photo pretty can alr luh. Right bb? Heh.
Missed her so damn much, even though I saw her about a week ago :(

Chomp Chomp-ed with Jasmine thereafter, and the stupid girl made me wait for 40 mins >:(
She told me 30 mins, so I tool 136 from Kovan. Reached 10mins early, but in the end she only reached 30 mins after the said meeting time. Rawr.
But I still love you luh. :D

Crazy people like us do things in reverse order, we ate ice-cream before dinner cause Chomp Chomp was sooooo crowded.
Cam-whored at Village's toilet, had Udders as our appetizers! So cute, we wanted to order the liquor range then they checked our IDs. FIRST time someone checked my ID y'know. Even when I watched M18 movies, visited Timbre or helped my colleague to buy cigarettes, no one checked my ID before. Quite amazing uh?

Took nice picturers too! :D
(But they're still with Jasmine! Hurry upload please!)

And I spotted Cheryl's writing on the wall of Udders too! Observant or what? :D

Neighbour, I love you a lot a lot! Even though you said you'd meet me after getting my results on 4th March after your school, but you MIA-ed after calling to make sure I was alright and I dinnered with YunJia and Cheryl in the end </3
So technically, today's meet up is more than 1 month overdue. *shakes head at Jasmine*

Oh and Jasmine helped me to take my passport photo alr! :D
I look ugly whenever I take pics from the front view. Bleah.

But I had a super duper ultra mega awesome time yesterday after meeting my girls!
It seems like a recurring pattern: after a day of fun, I'm always uber tired the next day, esp when I have work. Oh wells, but I'd rather choose to have fun and be tired the next day, rather than being uber awake at work without having fun.

And somehow, my plans this week are totally not going according to plan. The only thing that stays the same is that I met Grace on Monday and bb yst, and that I'm gonna SIM with YunJia on Saturday. Other than that...

OH YES I'M MEETING THE ODACians AND MISS LIU FOR DINNER TMR! :D :D :D :D
Super duper ultra mega excited!

Plus plus the weekend is finally here. I'm really looking forward to spending time with YunJia on Saturday and seeing someone!
Person, I really really hope you're free!
*crosses fingers and prays*

only the good things.


So, what now?

Or maybe it wasn't deliberate, maybe it was really an oversight.
Question is, what is the probability of it being such?
Given your personality.

You should stop being so selective, really.

Rawr.
How now, brown cow?

Do I go with my gut feeling?

Labels:


swirls and twirls.


This sucks.
I really wished I knew.

Am I reading too much into the whole situation?
It seems pretty weird that you asked the question cause previously you kept wanting to wait, no?

For now... I'll take things as it is. Maybe with a little clarification.

Grace and Charmaine, thanks for hearing me out :'))))
And person, stop being so complicated please. I'll be eternally grateful.

xoxo,
Jessica

weekend.
Weekends like this makes me wish weekdays were non-existent.

Learnt to roller-blade on Saturday, and I only fell once! Fell meaning unintentionally, haha cause there were several occasions I felt damn unstable so I fell intentionally. And Constance kept laughing at me whenever i did that D:
She promised not to laugh at me when I learnt, but she still did. Pfft. Nonetheless, quite fun luh, although I have damn bad abrasions from the skates :/
Ikea-ed after that (for the 2nd time that week), and I more or less decided what I wanna buy for my room alr!


Dim Sum-ed for lunch with the work mates today!
Practically everyone was late, surprisingly enough. But we had a great time! :D
Photo-taking was seriously ridiculous, I laughed till my stomach hurt. At the photographers. Esp the first one; I think he was the restaurant's boss. He kinda wanted us to take with his entrance, but he held the camera for damn long, idk what on earth he was trying to do also. Hold hold hold, not like the picture was nice anyway. He asked if it was okay, we all said yes because we were all laughing too hard on the inside, and we were dying to get away to laugh out. Hahaha.


Junction 8-ed just now to get some stuff, and I literally bumped into Miss Lam. I think it was just cause the bright yellow Will Run shirt caught her attention.
I chose to satisfy my craving for milk tea, ignoring the voice that was whispering, "you're gonna get insomnia tonight." and I'm paying the price now. That's besides the fact that I only slept for 6 hours the night before D:

Talked to Shawn yst, and I was saying that we haven't caught up for almost one year, to which he (annoyingly) replied, 'glad you know.' Tsk, he made it sound as though it was my fault luh! Anw if you're reading this from Suzhou, have fun! Dinner tgt when you're back! :)

This week feels awesome.
Tmr, I'm meeting Grace after work and dropping off my documents at SMU (I finally found my NYAA certificate) plus hang out.
tau huay-ing with bb on Wednesday;
prolly Fish & Co-ing (like finally) on Thursday;
meeting my Primary One friend for dinner on Friday;
SIM-ing with YunJia on Saturday to sbmit applications.

And I hope the bills don't get printed this week, cause it'll be ultra busy. I wanna slack for one more week heh.

Labels:


star light, star bright.

Honestly, I have no idea.

Yes, I know that it's only a matter of time. Has the time come?

Sometimes, I wished this didn't happen.
Sometimes, I wished you didnt rant to me.
Sometimes, I wished I knew what the hell you're thinking about.
Sometimes, I wished I knew where I stood in your life.
Sometimes, I wished I knew if I was the only one, or if there were seventeen thousand other ppl in my position.

Away and away, never to return this strong, or away but returning equally strong?

Dear diary, I wished I knew.

Meeting the work mates in 7 hours for lunch, I guess I had better head to lalaland soon.

the red carpet.


FRIDAY IS FINALLY HERE :D
*squeals and jumps up to dance around the room*

Timbre after work tmr with Nelson, Kuang Jie and Rahul, yay!
It's been ages since I last saw them!
Happy happy happyyyyyyyyyyyyyy~

But first, I have to survive 9.30am to 7pm. Gah.
