Another Day

I'm only left with about 25mins till my laptop shuts down since my batt's almost flat.

Had sec1 orientation today which majorly tired me out so I got cranky but thank goodness I know how to shut up before I explode.

Took 1Gallant and met Gerald's badminton friend Yujie there. He's pretty cute! Tho really annoying when he tries to annoy me. Yeah which explains how the word "annoyING" comes about.

Met other awesome kiddos too like Lye Yee, Suvenne and Kerlyn.

Cool names right.

And yeah tomorrow's the last day. Then I'm not taking them for the CCA exhibition since Joey wants to put me down to be the parents' tour's guide. :(


Went for dinner at the Asian Cafe with Ker after the whole maddness was over. Hur.

Swapped nametags on the bus there, hence the picture above. I was Kerrie for a few hours! Hahaha comical people we are.

Ate their spagetti with pepper chicken or something. Awesomely yummy! And their ice milk tea float. Omgggg sinful heaven.

Then again I didn't eat breakfast or lunch so yeah, who cares about sinful!


I. CANNOT. WAIT. FOR. TOMORROW!

Not cuz its the end of orientation (yes I'm looking forward to getting the proud-of-my-class feeling), but cuz of the chalet!

Whoohoo, countdown chalet on the 30th of December.

=.= we rock.

Gonna buy OP shorts (despo for clothes!) after orientation, then going home to change and then meeting the rest. Awesomeeee its gonna be fun!


I NEED A NEW WALLET AND BAG OMGGG.
I loved the bag at The Box that me and Ker saw!

Its an awesome bag worth its price of 35.90. Hahaha.

Guess Who's Back?


Back again?

Its been so long since you saw my sickening face on Realityworks.blogspot.com!

So why not see somemore of it?


ZIT GIRLLLLLL.


OH. MY. GOD.

What am I doing online?? When I have sec1 orientation the next day. AT 7AM?!?!

I'm so gonna start looking like a dead panda very, very, verrrry soon.


Thanks to superduper, I now have a camera.

And I find it so unfair that no matter how, no matter what, my technology on hand is always inferior to those of my friends/family!

Like my camera? It NEVER gave me ungrainy photos whenever I take night shots. Well okay, his camera did the same to me but whatever, photos taken with his camera turned out so AWEEEEEEESOME.

But whatever, thank my photo editing skills for the shots below. :)


As said in the previous post, I went to Sentosa today!

After not going there for the past... 7-8 years (?), finally going back there made me really, really confused. Why? Cuz EVERYTHING HAS FRIGGIN' CHANGED!

So whenever posed a question, I'll say: "I've not been here for the past 7 years. How would I know?"

VERRRRRRRY good excuse.

Thanks to Iggy's dad who works there, we got free tickets to many things!

Like the Underwater World and the CINEBLAST. Well we wanted to claim our free tickets to the Luge and boyf wanted the Songs of the Sea tickets too. In the end we didn't feel like it.

Oh, we even got free pizza from Sarpino's Pizza! YUM.


Then again, eating free pizza with drinks at half price with free tickets to so many rides/awesomeness UNDER THE HOT SUN?

Bloody hell! We were sweating while having the pizza.
He ended up changing places with me cuz he noticed how I couldn't take the heat.

Low blood pressure people + Hot sun = DON'T GO TOGETHER MUCH.

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM THE UNDERWATER!

How festive.

Even fishes celebrate Christmas in style, when I don't even have a Christmas tree at home!


For some reason this photo turned out really.. Idk. Looks very fake, doesn't it? Like someone made it from scratch from photoshop..

...WRONG!

We intended this to be a "Quinnie caught underwater" picture but ya.
It didn't look like it at all. Too fake.

I love the way I set the camera settings sometimes. Then he'll be like, "Okay, I don't know what you're talking about.."


After we got out and met Iggy, we headed off to the resort that David's dad's friend owns.

No vacancy.

So we sat under this place with a brochure in hand to call up each resort in Sentosa just to check if there were rooms for the 31st, and call up all the sailors.



This is totally candid! Quin looked at the camera as I snapped. Awesome much?

After checking with the sailors and with the resorts we headed to Beach Station via the Sentosa bus. Which was a horrible thing cuz we met some super embarassing typical Singaporeans on the bus whom I "attitude-d", as according to Iggy.

David didn't tell us he wanted to make a round, and we were already at Beach Station. So Iggy and his dad got up, and even before they stood up properly and got out of the seat properly, the typical ones and their mommy's-boy child snatched their seats.

THEY WERE HALFWAY STANDING, OH FOR GOODNESS SAKE!

Quin got so pissed cuz the boy sat beside her.

I ended up guai-laning them like I would to people I find.. horrid.

I quote them for you:
"Blue line lai leow! Blue! Blue! Blue line lai leow!!!" - ONE OF the typical ones.

Yeah, we know the bus is coming you dumbass.

After checking out the resort, which was super cool, we walked back to the station and took the bus back to Harbourfront.

Experimented with the slow shutter thing I learnt from my overseas friend in Deviantart.com while he slept. Woke him up to show him this:

Awesome, isn't it?

Then after dinner and the train ride to Tanjong Pagar (or what station?) to all the way back home, me and Quin played with it.






Feat. Iggy.


Yeah, thats kinda all. :)

Oh, I've been hungry recently! Which amazed him cuz when I told him I felt like eating when it was like 11plus, he was all "oh really? o__o"

I wanna eat, very amazing meh.

Ate a cinnamon bread, instant mashed potatoes and this chocolate biscuit mom has saved since start of the year cuz we all love it so much but can't find it in Fairprice!

If anyone knows where you can get this, tell me alright!

Me and Zhien are soooo dead tomorrow. Its 3.03AM and we're both not asleep! :o
And we're both complaining how late it is, but yet we refuse to sleep.


p.s. I just found out how much I LOVE vintage clothes!

TTFN, Tata for now!

Going to meet the people to go to Sentosa nowwww.

Blog when I get back, ciaos huns! :)

Rocky roads ahead but no one cares,

MERRY (belated) CHRISTMAS!
xoxoxo

Okay sorry for the Away-From-Keyboardness, but now I'm back!

Finally got my laptop repaired today. Thanks goodness we went to check with the other laptop shop, if not I wouldn't be online right now.

I was so excited about having my laptop back with me but now..
I'm freaking bored just using it.

And I am tired of redownloading Adobe Flash Player, cuz it always gives me problems when I try to download it! For some reason it just HATES my laptop.

But guess what!

(what.)

I'M USING MY LAPTOP ON MY BED!

How majorly awesome is that!

Yessssss, I know.
I am a wireless idiot.
I know.


I miss my girlfriends!

Cia's away in China, only to return on the 2nd day of school, and Ker's in Malaysia. They left me and Beanie alone to fend for ourselves!

*dramatic grandmother story*
.

.

.

ANYWAYS!
Meeting David, Iggy and Quin to go to Sentosa tomorrow!

Deedee wants to check out the Sentosa resort tomorrow before we book it for the New Year's Eve chalet, so yeah we're gonna go there to seesee since Iggy's dad got the card for free entrace for 3 people.


I need to get BELATED Christmas presents too!

For AGEK, Deedee, heartshaped juniors, everyone!

On a side note,
QUIN & IGGY,
Thank you for that ultimately random gift of a Christmas present!
Quin's story of how you guys came to buying it for me was, well, RANDOM. But thanks anyways.

They bought me a set of 3 letter openers. And I doubt it was those cheapskate kind, looking from the box and all.

After telling her story, she said "I figured you could use it to throw at someone when you quarrel with that person", and I immediately shot a look at David LOL. He was like, "What?? o__o"

BELLE,
Thanks for your super cute gift of a iPod Nano 4th gen. pouch! Its damn cute la. Like, LOOOOOVE IT! And its orange.

AGEK's not getting anything yet.

Eileen: Aiyah now recession la!
Me and Cia: *nods heads in agreement*


And also, I cannot believe I missed the sailing interview for next year's comm.!
Okay, byebye to the position I was hoping to get.


p.s.,
.

.

.

.

I'M FRIGGIN' PAINTING 2 OF MY ROOM WALLS GREY!
*laughs evily*


p.s.s.

MY QUINNIE-SCREENIE! :)

Look at our oh-so-lame conversation. Hahaha.
And its not David that drew it, its called Quinnie-Screenie for a reason.

(Paint REALLY kills the sharpness of the words and all. But I'm too lazy to reinstall Photoshop just yet.)

Heeheeeheeeeeee to you, Quin.
:)

Crashed Laptop.

Well this stinks.

My laptop crashed, and yeah now even tho I AM using it to blog, its in Lenovo's Rescue and Recovery mode, which started up by itself.

The browser Opera SUCKS.

AND I'm in the middle of packing my room. So I have this pile of textbooks + notebooks + assessment books on my lap.

Oh, btw, if anyone knows where the heck my Pure Geog file is,

YOU'D BETTER TELL ME OR MY BUTT IS SOOO SCREWED!

I swear I think I lost it. But I remember bringing it home!
What the hell man, what the hell.

I never actually realised how messy/dirty/ewwww my room was till today.

Whoever asks, I'll tell: Cleaning my room is like fighting war on a battle field.

No questions, nada, zero, zilch, NIL.

I threw out so many things!

It was interesting to stumble across my diaries I used to write in when I was younger, all those Biography notebooks we used to do everyday and go crazy about ASKING people to do them everyday..

Sigh.

I miss my life as a carefree kid.

------------

Which reminds me, I have yet to get the gathering photos from Ethel.

Lin laoshi was awesome!
She treated a bunch of 15 y.o. kids to dinner at Prata House, with drinks and deserts and all. And she came straight down from Ai Tong since she had to work!

By looking at us at the gathering, you wouldn't have imagined that 4 years back, we HATED this teacher to the core.

I rushed down straight after work and guess what comment the boys made at me when they saw me?

"Eh, call Russell! Call Russell!"

=.= WALAO, ARE YOU GUYS 15YEARS OLD OR WHAT.

.. go bang a wall and die kthxbye.

We watched Yes Man after that at J8, which was a pretty slow movie at the middle part. I swear, Junhao and Max fell asleep tho they happily denied it after the movie!

------------

Met Celine, her mom, and her mom's friend + daughter (LiYen or something?) for dinner yesterday. It was awesome.

Our set meal was like, a $33.90 meal per person, Lobster + Steak!

HOW FRIGGIN' AWESOME WAS THAT?

I've never really remembered myself having a meal this expensive besides the time we went to the restaurant in the Hyatt Hotel to celebrate da yi's birthday.


And I'm happy I lost more weight. LOL.

Besides being called "mai yi song yi", I'm now like the person who doesn't eat. I go to work with only my breakfast in my stomach and I last till 11pm without feeling hungry and they all get amazed at that.

And when I go a whole day without food, eating half a packet of french fries and drinking half a cup of Milo makes me feel so bloated I could puke. :\


And oh, Joseph is from Mayflower! Like how often do you get the same job as someone you totally don't know at your school?

Okay the chance is there but don't forget, this job's in Changi Airport.

He's from Darren Loh's class.

Joseph only recognises me from recess and not David. Blah. Thats just weird.


I need to go Christmas shopping! Okay, someday after work BEFORE Christmas.

I want my pay now omgomg. And mom's gonna open a bank account for me this Saturday! Hahaha. She said that she has to afterall, cuz of my paycheque. :)


1. Get presents for everyone on my list.
2. Bring Lappie to wherever to get fixed.
3. CARRY ON PACKING MY ROOM AND STOP GETTING SO DISTRACTED.
4. I need music omgomg SHINee you saved my life.
5. I wanna get new furniture, and a new dustbin (?)
6. My name is Minho~ (sings to the song: The SHINee World)
7. Practice hiphop more often.

CAN'T WAIT FOR 23RD/24TH DECEMBER!

Hugsssss!
Need you here.


p.s. HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, CAPITAL LETTERS MELODY NEO! :)

All the fond memories came back to me when I look at all my photos.

Heh, I can't believe I'm missing our gathering due to work!
Sorry for not calling back Ethel- I lost all my contacts! :(

Okay for once I really wish I wasn't working.

3ENDEAVOUR'08
We had major ups and downs, and days where we just hated being in the class.

I really need to take a picture of my Mommy and Daddy!
(Nicholas and Bryan.)

But in the end, we still love 3Endeavour.
Superstarrrrrs.

1ENDEAVOUR OF THE OH-SIXTIES
Heeeheeee, look at us and how much we've all changed.

1Endeavour'06 is like, seriously the best class, ever!
I miss all of us and the fun times we used to have in class.

STUDENT COUNCILORS

Tehbing Gang-
Morning duties would have been super boring if it wasn't for the fun people like you guys!
Spending mornings having fun and acting all geeky was our specialities. ;)

We were like, super united. :)

All the friendships made thru Sec1 Selection Camp etc..

SAILORS & ETC



I really have amazing juniors whom I'll always love.





:)

Sailors are the best, seriously!

I love the fact that we're like one super huge family.
I love every sailing camp cuz of people like you guys. ;D

Can't believe I'm already sec4.
I'll miss my juniors so much!

(heartshaped-juniors. LOL.)


MATSUMOTO JUN
(oh, you expected me to do a post of my beloved without my Matusjun?
FAT HOPE.)




Ya la ya la, I still have an obsession for him.

Cannot ah?
I LOVE YOU MATSUJUNNNN.

:)


And most recently,
AHMAH'S BIRTHDAY-
See the amount of candles on her cake?

Yeah I should ask Uncle Sintoh for the photos.
Cuz these were taken by the phone David lent me and yeah, the camera quality (kinda) sucks.

Mel decided to advertise her Ricola sweets. :\

See the TV and the speakers in Zhiming gege's room!

There were speakers on the sides of his sofa too.
I loved his room! Its huge. Wonder why I never actually realised that till now.

Mel's phone. :)

Twists from my cutie-pie Neo Jiawen! :)
.

.

o__o



Cute, ain't she?

This was taken at my gran's place the next day.

Yeah, my families' shoes and slippers.
And this isn't even my whole family from my dad's side, there's still all my uncles and aunties who didn't come. :)

I love my huuuuuge family!

---------------------------------------

Gosh, I'm so sorry about not updating my blog recently!

I've been so tired out by work and all, especially since I work 2 shifts when I only need to work one. Haha. I work the 2nd shift for free too!

So in work me and David are now:
  1. mai yi song yi
    (Buy-One-Get-One-Free, since he works for free during my shift and during his shift I work too. Our shifts are one after the other.)
  2. mei nu (pretty girl =.=). One of my 4 supervisors Sally gave me this nickname.
So yeah, work's been fun with people like Minxin!

I've not seen much of Izah this week tho. All my shifts have been with Minxin and David's were with Tiantian.

We can't help but to play with the toys there too!

He keeps on playing with the transformers toys and baby section toys while I play with the stuffed toys. :)

I can't wait to go Christmas shopping!

But I have no idea what to get for everyone, ugh.
