What was the occasion yst huh, so many people asked me to go out. First came Nadia's call on Monday night, then Nelson's tweet and Rahul's Whatsapp.

Combined the 2 meetups today! Along with Regina, Michelle and Kuang Jie! It's been ages since I last saw Rahul and Michelle! So nice to see them again after such a long time! Randomly decided to catch We Bought A Zoo. Totally laughed when that movie was suggested seriously. Hairy, seal, hippo, snail, Mickey Mouse, Chicken Little watching such a movie tgt. Joke ttm, machiam watching our own lives being portrayed on screen.

Shared a drink with Nelson but he barely touched it. Midway through the movie I freaking had to pee from excessive drinking lol. After a while, Kuang Jie started saying he needed to pee too. But the movie was ending, so we controlled. And chiong-ed out as soon as the credits came on. Epic shit, Michelle kept laughing at us afterwards.

Anyway.

Rahul: eh Mickey wants me to help him buy popcorn and drink! (cause he came late)
me: I want drink! buy the perfect 10 combo luh, I can share the other drink with Nelly.
Rahul: what drink you want?
Nelson: coke lor.
Rahul: (to the cashier) okay uh 2 cokes please.
Nelson: (to me) eh you're okay with coke right! sorry forgot to ask you.
me: uh, anything lah. aiya I very 随便 one.
Nelson: why are you speaking in Mandarin, be considerate luh.
me: what's 随便 in English uh; shucks I can't rmb.
Nelson: I know! Uh, cheap.
Michelle & Regina: sounds like the prostitute kinda cheap.
Nelson: yes yes cheap is the word. :D

WTHHHHHHH. Stupid idiot. >:(


Monopoly Deal-ed with them at the Sky Garden, we had a good laugh. Nelson and me were as poor as shit, the rest kept using the stupid "It's My Birthday" card to extort money. But we turned the tables around in the end; it all depends on luck eventually.


Felt like the old J1 days all over again, when I visited the Council Room after the Promos. Guys, we should do this more often! :D

Oh and yay I finally returned the $40 Gillian and me found! Went to the DBS Bank and queued for quite a while, witnessed some woman being a total bitch. There were 2 queues, the counters and the other one. This woman blindly queued for the counters, apparently she queued for about an hour before it was her turn, when she was told that she was in the wrong queue. Guess what, she totally took it out on the staff and said that it was their fault that their signs were not clear. And that when the bank is crowded, the signs are 'hidden'. She DEMANDED to be slot into the long list since they had wasted her time, going on to say that she needs to take care of her mother or some shit. Wth please, I totally went into bitch mode after she walked away. At that time it was only Nelson and me in the bank, and he had the honour of telling the rest what happened afterwards. Please, if she was stupid enough not to check the signs, at least she should be smart enough not to blame anyone else. Even Nelson and I had the brains to check the signs before joining the queue -.-"
Or even if the customers blocked the signs, as she claimed, wouldn't she be able to ask around? What's with deploying people to guide customers during peak periods? Freaking waste of resources, shouldn't these people be deployed to serve customers in order to minimize waiting time? And I don't see anyone else kicking up a fuss about being in the wring queue; why must we cater to the needs of the minority?
Hate these kinda people who end up doing smth wrongly and finding thousand and one excuses to blame other people for their actions, seriously. Take some personal responsibility will you.
Sorry but my bitch mode was totally turned on. To the maximum. Think Nelly got shocked ahahaha.

Anw Nelly, thanks for queuing with me! Had no idea why they made me fill in the form anw, not like it has anything to do with my account. I'm merely the good Samaritan who returned the money.

Met the ODACians afterwards for JiaWen's 21st! Hotel Re is freaking cool please! :D :D :D
Insisted on taking the uber cool bigger Guest Lift (out of 2) down and they said 最小的很麻烦. Teehee sorry luh :D

Happy 21st JiaWen! :)

Gonna sleep early and wake up early tmr to prepare the Christmas/New Year cards I've been meaning to start on since forever, esp since I'm meeting the workmates for dinner! :)

zomg I totally feel like slapping myself. I ransacked my entire room to find my newly purchased blusher, only to realize that its been sitting on my table all along.
Now, I have a messy room. Ah but at least it forces me to clear some of the mess.

Step by step, we're moving forward
Little by little, taking ground.

Anyway I feel damn sinful, I shopped like mad today. It's been a while since I spent so much in one day. I promise, no more shopping until school reopens, really.

So far, December has been awesome. Meet-ups aplenty, did tonnes of catching up with people I haven't heard from since school started! Heard my fair share of army stories, enjoyed myself thoroughly. 

2011: a year that has come and gone in the flash of an eye.

Spent the first 6 months of the year as a StarHub Customer Care Consultant. Awesome pay, horrible job. Thank God for providing me with nice colleagues to make the 6 months less torturous.

In btw the 6 months was the day of reckoning. Less than desirable results, but I guess in life we gotta pick ourselves up from our failures and move on. I'm really thankful for all the people that magically appeared to comfort me that rainy Friday afternoon, esp R and W. Heart the both of you! :)

Travelled overseas with friends, and it was kinda bad. Maybe cause I wasn't close to the 3rd person and she was besties with the 2nd person. Plus like what C said, 'she's not exactly the most friendly person'. Ah but lesson learnt.

Quit my job uber happily the moment I could, ultimate jubilation I tell you. I could still rmb the feeling I experienced when I walked out of the office and into the pantry where the workmates were waiting for me so we could have dinner. Like a huge rock had been lifted off me.

Played till my heart's content after that, managed to (finally) secure a job at MediaCorp's Data Centre a month later thanks to Short Girl's mummy. I was freaking broke by then lol. Pay paled in comparison to StarHub's, but I really enjoyed myself. Slack job, super nice colleagues! There were only 2 (apart from the 'boss') and they were super nice to me! We had almost weekly outings during my month long stint there.

Started school, met new people. Maybe I haven't exactly found the kind of friends I'm looking for, although I must say that I've met some rather nice people since school started. And to be honest, I haven't really been putting in much effort this semester. Which is obvious, as reflected via my freaking cui GPA. Partly cause I screwed up my midterms for one module. But that's besides the point. 7 semesters left, I'm gonna work hard to pull up my GPA. So far, Uni hasn't been what I expected it to be. Shall give it some time too, cause actually I don't really expect things to magically fall in place.

Friendship wise, really glad I became part of the ODAC clique. They really bring so much joy and laughter into my life. Although sometimes yeah, I feel the age gap. But apart from that, I'm just so thankful for these people who always make my day. Received Ona's Christmas card that day and it reminded me of my reservations about joining them once cause I was worried about being left out. Look at things now :)

I also witnessed how people's character can change, how obnoxiousness can overcome a person completely to the extent that they unknowingly hurt the people around them, and start looking down on people, saying hurtful things. I've learnt, that some people really just care only about themselves, and even if you treat them as your good friends, they might turn the dagger and aim it at you somehow. Honestly, the feeling sucks. Someone whom you thought knew what happened and why you did the things you did turns around and stabs you in the back.

Some tell me to mend it, some tell me to let go. I know I should have done this a long time ago but somehow there's just something holding me back. I'm not sure if I'm willing to let this friendship go just like that, or do I pretend that I wasn't hurt by everything that was said and done.

Sucks that the Army has taken all my friends, both guys and girls. It was worse before the A Levels ended seriously. But. I'm still glad I can meet up with them once in a while to catch up and listen to all their army stories.

Many have asked me with a puzzled look how I can actually be so close to teachers. Y'know what, I have no idea too. I'm so close to the 2 of them, I can tell them almost everything I tell most of my friends. Sometimes I look back at my JC days and I seriously wonder what life'd be like without the 2 of them. They were really my pillars of support both during and after my JC days. I don't know what I'd do without them, really. There're always looking out for me, never failing to encourage and reprimand whenever necessary. The latter isn't a nice feeling but somehow, I was touched. These are the 2 people who have never given up on me. The best part is that they somehow can sense when I need someone to talk to, esp on 4th March 2011. He came looking for me automatically, as though he knew I was looking for him. When I walked towards her afterwards, she had an outstretched arm upon seeing me, as though she was already expecting me. To the 2 of you, thank you for everything, I really love you guys.

At the end of the year, I'm still glad the friendships forged this year are still going strong; I still meet up with the workmates and colleagues occasionally! :)

Somehow, 2011 will always be a year to remember, for many reasons. Yacht party to celebrate YuanLin and ChunWei's 21st; being the youngest at 3 out of 4 21st celebrations attended, OCS Social Night with Ryan at RWS, traveling overseas without any adults and the list goes on. Of course, there will be bad memories of 2011, but I'd rather look at them as lessons learnt.

To all of you who've made 2011 special, thank you. :')

Christmas somehow feels different this year. There's hardly any mood for it, idk why. But no matter what, thank you God for sending Jesus down as a baby boy more than 2000 years ago, thank You for the most awesome Christmas gift anyone could possibly ask for.

Spent Christmas eve with Nelson the snail! Town was mad crowded, seriously. Oh but there were mysterious empty patches here and there. Weird much huh. And it always drizzles every time we were btw Plaza Singapura and Orchard Central. When we're elsewhere, nah the sky is silent. Like annoying only. It was drizzling when I reached Lorong Chuan station too, so essentially I was in the rain 3 times on Christmas Eve. #justsaying

Merry Christmas everyone! :D

Spent the entire post-exam period meeting up with people. Had a hell lot of fun, shopped, and I even brought home a fever in the process. Best part was that my thermometer wasn't working. So I can't tell the magnitude of my fever, apart from the fact that it was superduperultramega high. Close to the crazy shit I experienced 2 weeks before my A Levels. So around 39 degrees? But I survived :D

And I really enjoyed myself! Although I admit, I've been going out waaaaaay too much. I've been out everyday since Tuesday, today's the only day that I'm home. Seriously, it feels good to just nua at home for an entire day.

Feels damn shiok to be able to go out, have fun and not worry about assignments, school or any tests, really.

My life is more complete now after meeting my JC friends! Pfft, I don't like the army/A Levels, they've stolen my friends. Esp the former; it has robbed me of both guy and girl friends ):

Oh anw. Fever, I really hope you're gone. Don't hit me all of a sudden again alrighty.

Finally met them today! "after Thanksgiving" became "during Promos" and it has finally materialized!

Dim Sum-ed and hahaha we realized that W hates durian. Their durian mochi is oh-so-good. Laughed till my stomach hurt, really. All about puke, dirty toilets and all the random stories hahaha. Oh we had an epic conversation about dying hair.
We were Whatsapp-ing otw and L was telling me that W has outrageous hair.

me: yeah I saw FB photos! my hair's also different.
L: omg why you dye hair! Chicken Little I'm gonna scold you later!
W: haha she (L) belongs to the TTH School Of Thought, Chinese hair must be black not angmoh
L: later see who is more havoc, W or Chicken Little.

Obviously, W won, hahahaha. They couldn't see my hair colour under the dim restaurant lights.
Was telling them about my 1st (disastrous) hair dying experience, and how I did it again myself after one month.

L: Oh, no wonder not even. See this part, colour so red!
me: oh, no lah. I did extensions. 2 strands!
W: Extentions very fun meh.
me: having a patch of red hair at the top very fun uh?
W: *speechless*

Walked around, shopped a bit. Wait, make that a lot. Esp W!
But I really had a great time today!

L said she wanted to cab home.

L: we shall all cab home tgt!
me: huh how to; Serangoon Hougang and Ang Mo Kio leh. I'm in the middle of you 2.
L: can lah can drop you off otw to my house!
(after quite a while)
W: eh I drove.
L and me: -.-" 没早讲!

Thanks for the ride, W :')
Haha he was quite shocked that a small carpark entrance led to 19 blocks. Actually, I didn't realize that too. Hmmmm.

Happy day, missed the 2 of them to bits!
Till we meet again! Idk when that will be, haha. Esp for W.

I like to see my friends getting attached. There's just this nice fuzzy feeling, knowing that there's someone there for them.

Okay I know some of you are gonna say that you feel the same way, esp Cheryl. I know you keep wanting to see me attached but nah, I'm happy like that. Single and happy, with the freedom to do what I want, whenever I want to.
Maybe I just haven't found the right one. Okay more like I haven't bothered finding haha. When the time comes, I'll know.

I'll try to make y'all happy the way you guys fill my heart with this warm fuzzy feeling :)

I still wish we played Wii or the other console games. But we had fun nonetheless :)

Great day with the workmates today!

Carl's Jr-ed, and we were otw to Sentosa Boardwalk when we saw the Logos Hope cruise! Of course we decided to explore the ship. Super cool! It's been ages since I last boarded a cruise.

Holy shit I just realized that I've been drinking for 4 consecutive days. The amount ain't much but still, that's alcohol intake for 4 consecutive days. My liver's gonna spoil soon or smth D:

On Tuesday, us ODACians drank some wine by the Singapore River.
On Wednesday, I had a glass of Jack Daniel's Whiskey during Social Night.
On Thursday, we had some 'wine-tasting' cause we wanted to buy some wine to celebrate the Insp's 21st.
On Friday, us workmates shared one pint of Kronenbourg beer.

I think the total amount drank on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday prolly adds up to 3/4 pint. Yes I know it's not like I drank excessively but still.. Alcohol is still alcohol.

Shucks.

Swiped my card so many times yesterday, it seems as though I'm suddenly lacking in a lot of things. Bought a lot of things recently but I realized they were all necessities. Except for a bit but they're really the minority. Sucks to spend so much at one shot, urgh. Really depleted my pay I think, sigh.

Play Nation-ed with my favourite girls, ended up board gaming cause there wasn't anymore available consoles.

New Year's Eve-ed with the ODACians, and honestly it was a good show. Sat directly behind ChunWei and JunQiang, we wanted to give the Insp a birthday surprise. The show ended before midnight but we didn't care. Fun night, with us taking means to make sure our plan succeeded. Esp with all our attempts to throw him off track, including us 4 girls checking in at AMK Hub, and WaiKit texting him to say he was waiting to pass him his birthday present from YuanLin at AMK Hub. Super hush-hush in the theatre, we didn't dare laugh loudly for fear of ChunWei turning around to realize we were behind him. Memorable day, really.

Birthday boy, hope you enjoyed yourself even though you were clearly exhausted and angsty esp upon reaching your house. Which was kinda a wasted trip too.

But seriously, who gets popcorn poured all over you on your birthday in the middle of a crowded cinema?

Happy 21st! ♥

Holidays are here! Officially. Although I know I've been in a hoilday mood ever since the party on Saturday.

MTH 115 sucked, urgh. I know I can pass, but I know that I won't get a B overall. I always screw up the main exams. Mid-terms and now Finals.

OCS Social Night at RWS was fun, way more fun than Prom I tell you. Which was weird, since I didn't even know anyone there except for 3 people, 2 of whom were at the other end of the room. The place, damn upz siol.
And I realized I actually haven't seen R for superduperultramega long! Thanks for sending me home and walking me up! :)
Haha his attempts to psycho me to go to Butter after the event failed. We'll go for drinks soon okay, you have my word!
Met my Short Girl too! Missed her like shit omg.

Freaking tired, but totally looking forward to tmr.
Play Nation, here I come! :D

HAPPY 21ST YUAN LIN!

Met up with the rest for dinner today! Reached quite late cause I wanted to study more, and I saw Vanessa otwwww! :D

Annoying people, kept teasing me about C from the moment I reached.

Seating arrangement:
YuanLin       Nadia       WaiKit     (reserved for JunQiang)
ChunWei      Gwend     Me

Gwend: wanna change place with me not? :D
me: If i want I'd rather change place with Nadia so I can sit with YuanLin right.
Nadia: oh, so you wanna see him lah.
YuanLin: might as well change with me, directly opposite leh.

ZOMG. Anw we had a great time relieving ChunWei's drunk moments, hilarious max hahaha. But yay, had my xlb :)

Walked over to S'pore River, had Twelve Cupcakes and some wine, thank you YuanLin! Ona came with cake, and we just sat there talking about hilarious moments of Saturday. Anw they were damn annoying, finding any and every opportunity to tease me about him. HMPH! >:(
The videos were freaking hilarious okay, "who wants a kiss? I can give you one." HAHAHA.

Chiong-ed like mad at City Hall station, thought it was the last train. Turns out it wasn't -.-"
In the train, I was next to ChunWei, and when his phone vibrated he turned to me. "did you message me?" Like I got nothing better to do sia.

Tmr, Math. Final closure to my torturous journey with #PKuan.

OCS Social Night thereafter, and I get to see my beloved Short Girl! :D

Yay Nadia no longer needs a wake up call and I'm suddenly overwhelmed with exhaustion. Shower then its sleeping time! :)

Maybe sometimes, all I need is a little push to realize what I have been oblivious to all along. I keep saying that I'm not. But somehow deep down, I have this feeling that I want it to become reality.

Sigh, instead of studying for MUS 113 I let my mind wander off and think of all these. Tsk, Jessica, can you please focus? You know you want to sleep early tonight and you ain't those who'd sacrifice revision for the sake of sleep. If given a choice, you'd rather not sleep before a paper if it enables you to finish internalizing all the content.
I honestly think its a very bad habit cause 'by not sleeping you're negating all that you studied'. - W.

Still rmb those wise words spoken a year ago. :)

Really had an awesome day yst. The cruising part was freaking awesome.
The wind was in our hair, it was seriously an awesome experience. Although my hair got tangled like mad and I had a hard time untangling it thereafter. Felt like I was yanking out all my hair as I ran my comb through my hair.

Party afterwards was okay, games was totally wth. Stupid ODACians, sabo me for 7 wonders and paired me up with ChunWei. Wth, faint please!

Had drinks afterwards and omg, it's really entertaining when the birthday boy's drunk. The whole group of policemen were just gaying around, hahaha. He's damn cute when he's drunk. Like some small kid omgggg. Esp when he talks in that voice. But no, I don't like him in that manner.

we were walking to the room where all the bags were,
me: we bring all the bags up luh.
him: don't want, I only want to take my own.
me: aiya okay okay, I bring the rest up myself.
him: *takes his bag, leaves it in the middle of the walkway and walks away*
me: o.o

I had to pick up his bag in the end -.-"

Headed over to Vivo/Macs to chill and talk with the remaining ODACians minus the birthday boy; it was so hard trying to flag a cab afterwards, cause people were streaming out of Sentosa after Zouk Out ard 4am. Plus there was a road block too.

And everyone, why're you all suddenly pairing me up with ChunWei huh?!

Be honest with me, I'm not behaving like a student in the midst of her Finals right

Studied a tiny weeny bit before meeting the StarHub workmates for dinner.

Dinner became dinner + games at Nebo Cafe + pool. Awesome time, its been so long since we met up! Freaking hilarious time watching QianMei play pool with a dislocated MASTER arm.

Anw, while we were at Nebo, I saw this person in the Red Nike Run shirt. Idk why I wondered who'd wear that shirt out. Looked at the face, guess who. Chun Wei -.-"
Came back to look for me and when I went out to meet him he asked, "what are you doing here? Don't you have exams to study for? Aren't you still having exams?"
Mehh he asked me to go stand in one corner and face the wall. ):

This leaves me with about 1 day to study for MUS 113 and 2 days to study for MTH 115. The latter is okay, it's just the former. Sucksxz.

Yup, she was right. Maybe it's just my secret fascination.
No matter what, that will always have a special place in my heart.

Sometimes I still wonder if it really happened, or was it just a figment of my imagination. Previously, I half-convinced myself that I was thinking too much. Perhaps nothing actually happened. But the recent happenings made me rethink my stance. Maybe they were real after all.

But now, that is history. History that I will always look back at and smile at the memories.

Thank you (:

Sucks when you've found someone you're pretty sure you can get along with rather well, and she can entertain all your rubbish, get high and do rubbish with you, only to realize that its the end of the semester and she's only gonna be in one of your modules next semester. Worse still, that module's only once-a-week.

Life sucks like that.

Just like how you see a dress online, and you're glad that they finally cater to petite people. Then. You realize that the PTP measurements totally cannot fit you. Its as though people are under the assumption that all petite girls are flat-chested. So annoying okay. Saw a cute dress yst, and another nice one just now. And I can't get them cause its too small. Like wth ):

WHY.
