Being in such a quiet room (with Alex's snoring in the background.. *cough* Teehee) gives me the 'space' I need to think.
Today wasn't a particularly awesome day for me, apart from the fact that me, Ker and Lex cooked a hearty dinner for ourselves. What with that two power shortages and the whole house suddenly turning pitch black every time I flipped the switch for that damned oven and the point of time where I didn't want to turn on the other stove thingy for them to boil water for our mashed potatoes because I was too afraid?
What an experience.
I need to start my daily jogging plus workout routine again. Been slacking a week before Chinese New Year. Oh the joy of the lovely food swirling around in your stomach and slowly digesting to turn into fats... Oh the joy.
Anywho, its annoying when people can't see things from your perspective and give in to you once in a while. They may have all the right to worry, I can't stop that. But there is a limit to what I can take, be it sarcastic or not.
I've been tolerating their (and by 'their', I don't mean my friends) nonsense by looking at the situation from another perspective, telling myself they are right and I am wrong. Why can't they, for once, give in and see how I feel? What I might be going through that they can't sense because I am not telling?
Not something to joke about here- I can only take this much shit.
I'm not used to what's going on around the house and I need to adjust. I would love to take their place any day to let them see how lonely it feels when you're suddenly forced to be alone everyday because someone you were attached to had to go back to her own home, yet expectations are heightened because of such an event.
Yes it may be true that when she was around, all I wished for was to be home alone more often, and if possible, forever. Now that I got my wish, I truly regret it. It sucks to be alone, big time.
The grass is greener on the other side.
But as Ker says, "That is not the case.
We just have to learn to appreciate our own grass."

F is for Friends who do things Together
Recently had a sleepover at Alex's house with Ker.
Unsurprisingly, we stayed up the whole night playing L4D2 at a LAN shop, watching half (or less than half) of My Sister's Keeper, watching Friends, playing Neopets and eating roti prata for breakfast at a shop nearby at around 6 in the morning.
While we watched Friends, Kerrie slowly drifted off to sleep only to be awakened by us to play Neopets together. Every time I laughed at a joke cracked on the show, Alex will crack up and laugh along. I thought she found the jokes funny too when she revealed that she laughed cuz my laughter was really funny.
Typing that out just made me laugh. Aw!
We had an awesome breakfast. I ordered Milo Dinosaur while Kerrie ordered tea(?). Surprisingly, all of us had the same 'Usual' of one kosong and one egg prata!
I've not had such a breakfast in a long time. I love having roti prata for breakfast early in the morning because my dad used to bring me out to eat roti prata whenever I missed the school bus in primary 1. He would offer to drive me to school and as we walked out, he'd suggest bringing me to the roti prata stall just a few blocks behind mine.
Besides that, my gran used to bring me, Mel and Amanda (Neo) for roti prata after we accompanied her for her morning walk/jog. Well okay, MY GRAN would do the exercising. We kids just planted our butts on the swings and modernised versions of sea-saws at the playground.
Cliche as it sounds, eating roti prata at an inhumanely hour (I can use 'inhumanely' for this sentence, right?) makes me feel good inside, bringing back the fond memories I had as a kid.
Okay, back to the main point of this post.
While we om-nom-nomed (QuinTM) our breakfast, we talked about stuff.
One of them being the fact that the number of friends we could tell absolutely ANYTHING and EVERYTHING to without the fear of being judged or bitched about afterwards are countable by the fingers on our hands.
Me being me, I thought, "Oh hey, the number of friends I could do that to are countable by the fingers on my hand, not hands."
Which is rather true.
They always say, "You graduate from secondary school with the best friends you'll ever make in this lifetime."
Which is also true.
Then again, that statement applies differently for different people.
It sounds sad to be able to count these friends with only one hand, but for me, I'd say I did graduate with some of the best friends I'll ever make in secondary school. The best-est was from primary school. I'm happy to have them as my friends and these are the people I'll make the effort to ask out.
They may be countable with 5 fingers or less, but the thing is I'm thankful for these people and I hope I have impacted their lives the way they impacted mine.

Caleb
Polaroids capture priceless moments.
Sigh this is why I want more. Could the Polaroid 600 & SX-70 Film – Paul Giambarba Edition not cost $37 and $43 respectively?
My Polaroid shots are so precious that I keep them in a photo album. I never touch the picture part of the film and store them away so that they don't get scratched or bent.
Actually, after I start working again next week, I really wouldn't mind blowing off $37 for my film. I'm still wondering if I should buy the Instax Ethel's been trying to sell to me! Pink version I believe? I'm sad that Caleb has been under my shelf for months now.
When I pulled out my Polaroid during Interschools, Bianca and Whatshername from TKGS sailing were telling me the Instax would be worth my money.. But theirs is the Mini. I want the older model, the one that uses the really wide film. SHINee used that on their reality TV show!
More Nathan!
Oh my goodness this was so funny I replayed it like 7 or 8 times.
Nathan Kress I LOVE YOU!
Nonchalant
Nonchalance hitting me like a wave coming towards shore.
(Too much Geography in my head.)
Le sigh, I'm sorry Alex and Ker.
I don't know what's wrong with me. A moment ago I was all smiles while chatting with people via MSN and a moment later, my face was like :| If you look at my face now all you'd see is an expressionless.. expression?
I feel like canceling everything I have on hand tomorrow. I just want to lie down on my bed, read a good book and enjoy music while I do so.

KBox
Can't wait for the next KBox session with the babes.
It was awesome today. Started off with a L4D2 session at Virtualand's arcade. We got to the stage where we had to start this rock concert by Midnight Raiders or something to signal for the helicopter?
We almost got rescued by the helicopter.
Alas, at the last minute, we, dramatically and sadly..
Died.
Infuriating or what??! Yes, I'm serious. Me and Ker died just inches away from that darned 'copter. Don't they understand the whole point of a rescue mission? Go to the needy, not the opposite! Especially when there's the mob of zombies surrounding them is like.. MASSIVE.
KBox and the lan shops are, weirdly, becoming my second (no wait, third. Yes, lets make it third) home.
There was this link on Atiqah's blog and one point I saw on the webpage was this:
- Stand up and move about constantly. Compulsively fidget. It does add up to an estimated extra 500 calories burned a day. Twitch your leg while studying, for example. Also, sit up straight - you'll burn more calories
Damn, the boy can't eat one spoonful of rice without dancing around the hall for like 20 minutes. No wonder he takes at least 1hr 40min to finish dinner, and no matter how late or how much he eats, he never grows fat.
Time to join my brother on the mealy (we have daily, hourly, so now I add mealy) 'Gerald Dance'.

Justin Bieber and a bit of Jennette McCurdy!
I don't know why people say Justin Bieber has an awful voice and so on when this video just proves the opposite:
I still think he's a good singer! And cute too. Except for the fact that his voice's still pretty high-pitched for a 15 year-old.. but I guess that's normal. Even Dylan and Cole Sprouse broke their voices like last year or something??
Jennette McCurdy and Nathan Kress are currently my favourite Nickelodeon stars so far. Oh, not forgetting Jamie Lynn Spears and Victoria Justice.
I think Jennette McCurdy's an awesome singer. Love her personality.
Okay that'll be all.
'till tomorrow!

Beach
I suddenly have this strong urge to go to the beach and play beach volleyball. Maybe cuz I was looking through the photos I took at Sentosa like the one above.
Anyone interested?
Anyway, I've been watching videos of Nathan Kress and Jennette McCurdy (SEDDIE forever!) and I think Nathan Kress is so hot and cute! I never found him hot 'till his voice broke. Haha why can't Singaporeans sound like himmmmm??
Was supposed to go for J/K Pop hip hop class today but Bernice isn't feeling too well so I'll be waiting 'till Thursday for our next lesson. I feel like going for lessons at least 3 times a week since we've signed up for the Unlimited package. Choon Hui's such an awesome and friendly teacher that I can't wait for her next lesson!
Going for lunch tomorrow with Alex. Can't wait to just sit around and chill for once, instead of going out to shop and feel burned out when I get home.
Nathan Kressssssss
Nathan Kress is sooooo cute!
Gotta love his expression when he says, "Awkward turkey.."
HE'S SO MUCH BETTER ONLINE THAN HE IS ON iCARLY! They should stop dressing him up as a geek on iCarly, spoils the poor guy's image. :(
Nathan doing the Fast Food Rap (with Jennette McCurdy):
Okay that's all. Love both of 'em!

Ouch
I feel as if my back's about to break into half.
You know, I never felt this useless in terms of dance ever since.. Ever.
If there was one thing I hated about having lessons in Studio Wu, its that its really crowded there, as if it were some Master Series workshop. I thought the studio was huge, but now that its the 'been there, experienced it' thing, the studio's really small.
I couldn't catch up with the choreography, which shows how complacent I've become cuz of Maqrius's lessons. Since it was only 3-4 of us then, I never had to worry about not being able to catch up cuz he would have to wait for us to get it before moving on.
I loved Maybelle and Yutaki's lessons, really.
Guess I need some time to adjust myself back into dance mode?
UGH my breaking back! I've never felt so much pain in my back before. Maybe from sailing in the past, yeah. That was because my back wasn't straight, so injuring my back's a fairly easy thing to do.
I blame the warm up. Yutaki's warm up session was a killer.
Better get used to it quickly, Gwen. Or you're going to die out during the warm-up itself.
Its like YOGA. Damn, all the stretching etc.. I was left breathless after the warm up. No wonder female hip hop and contemporary dancers have good figures.

Zing zingy zang za-zang za-zang zingy zingy zang zingy zingy za-zang za-zang zoom!
(NOTE: 1ENDEAVOUR'06, PLEASE CHECK THE CLASS BLOG! Will be having CNY Steamboat at my place again, similar to last year's. CHECK OUT THE SITE. NOW. NOW. NOW!!! http://oneendeavour-ohsixties.blogspot.com/)
We did hip hop to these two songs yesterday:
Maybelle's class:
Yutaki's class:
One word for when I woke up today: PAIN.
I woke up to a phone call from my dad asking for my mom, and since I wasn't able to go back to sleep anymore I sat up and could immediately feel the damned thing in my back. Hurt like a b$%#@.
And now I'm having this throbbing headache, which fits just PERFECTLY into the picture.
Bern-Bern, how're you holding up?
Is your back breaking? Your butt feeling sore? ANYTHING?
We missed Maybelline's warm-up cuz we were signing for the class, but since Yutaki's class started immediately after Maybelle's, we didn't miss Yutaki's warm-up and it was a session of pure hell for me. Just proves how long its been since I danced and did vigorous warm-ups! (Can't say I didn't exercise since I jog every alternate day :P)
Can't wait for Monday's lessons!
Here are some photos, way overdue:
My favourite photo of Joey and Cass.
Hey girls (Joey, Cass, ShanAi and Eileen), here are some of the photos!
I'll be uploading more after editing them. If you want the originals just tell me alright! My apologies (heehee sounds so old-fashioned) for the late upload. Love ya!
Joey, if you're reading this, I had a dream that Cass had FB. Maybe because you added this girl named Cassandra Lim on FB recently (I saw it on your Profile).
Ugh I'm supposed to be out with my gran and my aunt by now for shopping and lunch, but waking up to a throbbing headache that got worse by the hour wasn't exactly going-out material. Sigh.
Oh well, Ahma, hope you get some nice clothes for yourself for Chinese New Year!
If you'll excuse me, I shall.. how you say, retreat to my bed/sofa now. Head's are-a throbbing! And yeah I know that isn't.. well. Actually a proper sentence? Ugh okay starting to sprout nonsense SEE YA!

Big, Big, BIG Mistake?
I'M SO PISSED AND ANGRY AND HEARTBROKEN-
That I came to blog!
Ugh. I am so annoyed that I didn't bother to check the price of my new newurbanmale tanktop before I purchased it!
The normal ones are $69.90, but mine was an atrocious $89.90!
I HATE myself when I do stupid things like this. Was so blinded by the beautiful sight of orange, white and black in a single top that I never saw the measly pricetag at the side of the tank, not even while I was trying it!
Thank God Mel was sharing the bill with me for the Double Happiness CNY Offer! So after deducting the amount we split.. it should be around $72. Still, the price irks me to no end. If I had purchased the $69.90 one instead, I would be paying around $20 lesser than what I already did?!
The damn pretty thang that caused me a lot of heartbreak and (a) sleepless night:
Suddenly I'm thinking the Germany one is nicer.
The guy got my contact number and is gonna call me to tell me which outlet has the Holland S size one cuz I got XS. So I might be able to change from Holland to Germany, since I LOVE the Germany flag a lot (colours only, people).
During World Cup, I almost bought the Adidas Germany jersey that Bev has just cuz I liked the colour! I liked it so much I ended up liking the team PLAYING for the country. My dad was wondering how I got about to liking Germany during the World Cup season.. so here you go, Dad!
Technically speaking, if the dude(s) that work in the shop, your cousin and your mom tell you you look better in the XS one cuz it's not as baggy and fits you better, you wouldn't change it to one that's baggier and bigger, right?
They were all telling me I should get the XS one, and that I look better in it.
But if I gain any more weight or get a bigger tummy (I've been exercising and eating smaller portions of my food the past week or so), I'm doomed. I won't wear the tanktop anymore and there goes my $89.90!
I shall apply Bev's theory in this situation:
Okay, Bev. I hope your saying would ease my frustrated nerves right now.
Then I'll quote the guy and Mel: "Good la! Then the tank top will motivate you to lose weight and not to gain weight!"
BUT THE SHIRT IS MAKING ME FEEL SO STRESSED (and weirdly, claustrophobic) THAT I FEEL THE NEED TO EAT!
Should I? Or should I not.
That is the question.

Ris Low
Oh my goodness.
When she went "Nnghhh" I could feel the goosebumps on my arms rising up.
I have no idea how going to the New Urban Male website ended up in going to this page on MSN- "My not-so-secret Ambitions" or something. An article Ris Low typed out herself, I presume?
I did, however, stumble upon this photo of her.. licking.. ice cream.
Without her fancy makeup she doesn't look like the former Miss Singapore, does she now?I got one word for the photo:
Nnnnnngggghhhhhhhhhhh~

"I love the Small Ironies in Life"
Facebook is lagging so much that its getting on my nerves right now.
Like seriously, get a better server! Yeah I know, easily said but hard to do. Even the Neopets Stock Market runs faster than the bloody lagging FB.
I love looking through my external hard disc sometimes. So many old photos, Word documents, videos.. It makes me feel all sentimental sometimes. :tear:
There was this show on the History Channel I think. I believe its still showing right now. Its about people who can't throw away their old stuff, keeping it all 'till it becomes clutter. It gets as extreme as their spouses filing for divorce with them and their kids being unhappy. "Every single item represents a memory and I can't throw that away."
Sigh I know how that feels. My mom used to call me 'garang-guni girl' for keeping old erasers, pencil cases, notes, worksheets, toys.. No matter how often she told me, "MISS NEO! CLEAR YOUR ROOM AND THROW OUT THOSE OLD THINGS LA!" I still couldn't bear to throw out my items.
I remember reading this Archie Comic I just bought recently with Celine and it was about Betty and Veronica unwillingly throwing out their old stuff. It ended with them giving their old stuff to each other!
Then again, whenever I clear out my room, it FEELS. SO. GOOD.
Anyway, today I went out with Mel and she bought 2 times the amount of things I did! (Meaning spending two times the amount too)
Thank goodness we didn't buy our Havaianas or we would've spent even more!
She kept bitching about the people at her workplace over lunch that I found it funny at certain points. We had a rather sinful-yet-sickening lunch (because my Fish N' Chips and Sticky Chewy Chocolate were too much for me to handle) and went to Video Ezy and Starbucks at Thomson Plaza to ask around for a job.
We ended up calling my dad to check when she could start work at the airport. We're most likely gonna work at the transit area so I'm really excited! Also excited for the midnight shifts which end at 1AM or so.
And oh, we saw Patrica Mok. Mel was like, "Hey then there's this shop/drink.. Hey Patrica Mok. And ya lor that-"
It took me a while to realise what she meant was that Patrica Mok was sitting in this store looking for shoes with (I think) her boyfriend! I looked at the shopkeeper and she looked as if she was gonna start jumping around, going "Eeeeeeek!!!" cuz she's feeling the I-just-saw-a-celeb! thing.
I'm gonna see my juniors as I'm going to sail tomorrow! I really doubt I'll get a good night's sleep cuz right now, I'm getting all excited just thinking about sailing.
I just don't hope I get too dark again or I'll kill myself. CNY's in like 2 weeks?!

- Its neater
- I know that my room will collect less dust that is hard to clean
- I have more space for NEW junk. (Haha what nonsense is this)
