R.A.T Race | Race against Time!
Urge to walk in the rain...
Oh well, plans for the upcoming holiday have started to take shape and within a day, We (my family and I) had formulated plans and made several bookings. Mt Kinabalu and Vietnam it would be.. But somehow all these weren't wat i had in mind.. I just want to spend some time with you.
Love is never a simple thing...sometimes you have to give, and other times you take. Its a tricky business here..Sometimes it pays to pay a little more attention to details, sometimes things wld turn ard to bite if u if u're over analytical... *sigh*..why can't love be easier to comprehend? Then it wld spare many of us the heartaches...
A half thinker...anyone out there to solve my probs?
Bored..all i face is an empty wall
as usual, i was just fooling around...
MUMMY!!!
Pardon me if u feel that there has been a rising trend of photos of pple lying on my bed lately. But its the TRUTH!!! argh..have no idea why either..Yeh..cldn't work much with her staring down my back and interrogating me with so many thousand questions..my gosh..I need a breather...
Yeh..it sure is noisy...
i hate it!!!
where's the appreciation? my greasy oiled stained hands from lifting the heavy luggage yell out for attention..to be noticed and thanked for its efforts. but who cares...WTH...
Noise pollution..soon to be..
Countdown to HOLI-HOLI-HOlDAYS!!! *ahem* Exams i meant..
This week was one hell of a week too. Late nights..little eye-shut..and two tests. Gosh, thank God i managed to ride the wave. *phew* now its back to revision and more revision... Books have become my new best friend..(woops sorrie sui) hehe..
Oh yesh, thanks kor for bothering to check out my blog. Heard from Jiahui that u've been stressing urself up recently. Hey..chill yar big bro..u're so smart! I'm sure studies is effortless for u..hehe. Jiayou!!! soon u'll be back in Singapore again! hehe. Miss ya loads reallie..the hse has been so boring without ur presence. Still recall the times we used to wrestle on the bed back in the old hse, cycle thru the neighbourhood on our bikes, visit the fat-man's grocery store downstairs to spend our pocket money on small treats..those were the days..haha
Some photos for my big bro down other..hehe..
Come home soon... I miss having you around...
except when you do this ==>
DON'T LIE ON MY BED!!!! RAWR!!!!!!!!!!
Damm..why is it so hard being a woman?
dedicated a song to baby ytd on class 95. Was glad tt he caught it...Thanks dear...
the procrastinating, apathetic, indolent me
Its a public holiday tmr but too bad i'll most probably be cooped up at home studying for wed's test, Mechanics of Materials. Sigh.
Think I'm becoming kinda lazy... I just seemed to have lost my drive..will to work.just *poof*..gone with the wind. Haha. Beats me why this would have happened..Perhaps its because I have reached a point where I see no hope in salvaging the situation, I'll just never be able to do well this semester no matter how hard I try. Its just too daunting on my spirit to carry on this way. But I guess it may be a good thing after all. Carrying a much lighter attitude towards everything has just kinda set me in a better mood and to see the rest of the things in life which are more important and tt i've otherwise neglected. Also, I've learnt to men are not in control of everything including their destinies. and sometimes when things get out of hand, maybe its prime time to let go and leave it God.
Anyway came across a nice video today. http://www.campaignforrealbeauty.com/ Produced by Dove..it shows how societal's perceptions of beauty is affected by the media. Sometimes because of the wrong potrayal of true beauty, people gather inaccurate ideas of what beauty really is. We've got to come to terms with the fact that what you see on movies, posters, magazines, the showcasing of perfection, in terms of physical proportions, flawless complexions...etc.. many of these are NOT REAL!!! In an attempt to create the image that models are perfect beings who do not suffer from the problem of cellulite and whatever norms that an average woman would, they have resorted to using digital technololgical means to alter the images, leading the consumers of these photographs to think that since there are such 'perfect beings' in this world, whats stopping them from being one? Its unhealthy as well as unforgiving that society is forced to conform to the expectations of itself. A viscious cycle that drives people to do stupid things...
What's the world coming to???
je suis fatiguee!!!
me and paul...
after on we headed for more SHOPPING!!! haha..Bought a nice nice jacket with a hoodie..so happie..Yeh..paulie bought a nice shirt too and I helped him pick it! hehe. Following tt we tried to look for place to sit down and get a drink. But that was highly impossible despite the millions of coffee clubs spanning the whole of orchard. Seemingly all those shops were filled. Gosh..it appears that all people wanna do is to find a seat and chill out at a coffee joints now a days..Weird..but guess its a lucrative business despite of the fierce competition, everyone is a winner.
Finally I ended off the night with a bang! Baby came all the way to meet me in town..where he ate his super uber late dinner then we headed down to this new club at central mall CUBE. It was okie..music was good even though the DJ looked lyke a noob. The place was small but spacious..had a certain sense of intimacy and untouched raw quality to its deco. Drinks were comparably cheaper. The crowd..tended towards young punksters and young small gurls who got high and rallied at the top of their voices...got on our nerves pretty much but I guess they did make for good viewership. Had been a long time since i drank so wasn't tt used to the taste of alcohol..Tasted vile and disgusting at certain times.. Think its a good thing though. haha. Oh but i must mention that the waterfall there is REALLY GOOD! It was different from the ones i previously had. This was reallie HOT..it practically burnt my throat lar..but it was good.. Yep, so it was a night of intoxication, mindless unwinding and just laidback fun. Thanks baby for being there with me. U're the best!
internal clock gone wrong
What's love?
Love is...What makes a weak man brave
And a king step off his throne
Good times, bad times
Easy times, tough times
It comes in an instant
And lasts three days after forever
That's what love is.
Sure gonna miss u guys when u're gone..I promise I'll be such a good gurl...Hehe *evil laughter*
Happie Happie Bdae Paulie!!!
*RAWR!!!!*
Time is never enough
French test ytd was a total flop. Had no idea wat the reader was narrating during the listening section. Worst of all, there was so much vocab involved and i was totally clueless..*gulp* Just wish I can pass that subject..I dun ask for much.. Hehe
Went to watch a late night movie yesterday as well with Melvin. 'The Guardian' staring Ashton Kutcher and Kevin Costner. It was great! Really admire the strength both physical and psychological of the rescue divers. It must indeed be pressurzing to knoe tt u decide who lives and who dies. I'll never be up to that...Can't even handle my own life, what more rescue others. Muahaha..
SHucks...running late. Gotta get ready for tuition...Giving 2 sessions of tution in a row today. Shagged man. Please see me through the day oh Lord.
J'ai attendu un long temps
Pray the weather be good..let the skies clear and the haze temporily vanish...May the plane land in safety.
Bring my baby back to me...
When will I learn to lay it down?
Lay it down -- Jaci Velasquez
I’ve been looking ‘til my eyes are tired of looking
Listening ‘til my ears are numb from listening
Praying ‘til my knees are sore from kneeling
On the bedroom floorI know that
You know that my heart is achingI
’m running out of tears and my will is breaking
I don’t think that I can carry
The burden of it anymore
All of my hopes and my dreams and my best laid plans
Are slowly slipping through my folded hands
I’ve been walking through this world like I’m barely living
Buried in the doubt of this hole I’ve been digging
But You’re pulling me out and
I’m finally breathingIn the open air
Chorus
So I’m gonna lay it downI’m gonna learn to trust You now
What else can I do
Everything I am depends on You
And if the sun don’t come back up
I know Your love will be enough
I’m gonna let it be, I’m gonna let it go
I’m gonna lay it down
Another HAZY sunday afternoon...
Ytd, I coincidentally came across my friend's amanda's webby. She designs and makes her own accessories for sale anyway. Found some pretty nifty and charming designs.. Was pretty blown away by the simple yet gorgeous items that I saw. I must say that this gurl certainly has a gift in this field, an eye for beauty. Haha. here are some pieces for ur viewing pleasure..
Phobias? Who has them?
Yeh, so back to Lin Sui... I guess I'm reallie blessed...Somehow or another God is wonderful in the way he has everything planned out. Allowing me the chance to meet such a great friend at this point of my life which is shrouded by uncertainties, doubts and troubles. *Thank you God* And thank you for being there for me, talking me out of my mood swings and giving me such appropriate advice when I need it. I couldn't have found a better bestie! Hehe.
Okie..so I came across this article regarding the different types of phobias tt exist in this world and i was amazed yar. They have everything from the most common zoophobias, which are anxieties about animals to the outrageous Chrometophobia or Chrematophobia- Fear of money.( i mean..who has a phobia of MONEY?!?!.haha..) and check this out Barophobia which is the fear of gravity (kinda inconvenient if u're living on planet earth huh?) Yeh..It just goes to show..fear is incorporated into the lives of men..its an integrated way of life and serves as a defense mechanism for many. Helping us to avoid or run away from certain things or situations. Strange how men behaves sometimes... BUT I wouldn't deny that I myself do suffer from some of these phobias.. Here's a sample list of possible phobias tt i suffer from...
- Didaskaleinophobia - the fear of going to school ( argh..tt was lately..I have no idea why either)
- Brontophobia- Fear of thunder and lightning.(Haha..was always terrified of thunder..I guess it got even worst after the lightning strike at Tahan)
- Decidophobia- Fear of making decisions.(I'm reallie bad with decisions..u cld say I'm indecisive. And i ALWAYS happen to make the wrong decisions!!! oh somebody save me!!!)
- Lygophobia- Fear of darkness.(guess u didn't figure tt out huh? was reallie scared of the dark when I was a kid..haha)
- Testophobia- Fear of taking tests.(needless to explain rite?)
- Aquaphobia - Fear of water, specifically the morbid fear of drowning.(yikes..always had nightmares of myself drowning..almost drowned a couple of times..hate it.
Yeh tts about it. Its pretty interesting. Check it out at http://phobialist.com/
Wonder what would it be lyke if i suffered from Philematophobia- Fear of kissing.Haha..No kisses for you!!! Wahaha..
In the still of the night
I wanna see the world...
Came across this in the afternoon... thought it was absolutely fabulous..Haha.
Lost without you
Album: Innocent Eyes
Title: Lost Without You
I know I can be a little stubborn sometimes
A little righteous and too proud
I just want to find a way to compromise
Cos I believe that we can work things out
I thought I had all the answers never giving in
But baby since you've gone I admit that I was wrong
All I know is I'm lost without you I'm not gonna lie
How my going to be strong without you I need you by my side
If we ever say we'll never be together and we ended with goodbye don't know what I'd do ...
I'm lost without you
I keep trying to find my way but all I know is I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day
I'm lost without you
How my ever gonna get rid of these blues
Baby I'm so lonely all the time
Everywhere I go I get so confused
You're the only thing that's on my mind
Oh my beds so cold at night and I miss you more each day
Only you can make it right no I'm not too proud to say
All I know is I'm lost without you I'm not gonna lie
How my going to be strong without you I need you by my side
If we ever say we'll never be together and we ended with goodbye don't know what I'd do ...
I'mlost without you
I keep trying to find my way but all I know is I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day I'm lost without you
If I could only hold you now and make the pain just go away
Can't stop the tears from running down my face
Intolerable Cruelty
Painful silence over the phone...
A mad, raging, impatient tone...
On the other side, a heart aching from seperation, fondness and desire.
An exchange of short answers,
Mounting tensions.
Silence once again...
Harsh farewells bidded.
The cruel ringing of the dial tone...
My Room needs a Facelift!!!
Bad decision though..there's just sooo much work to do!!! plus all the moving and all the throwing away of stuff..Strenous work for the usual lazy me. Haha.
check out the cool colours!!! And the orange square against the purple backing..All my idea!!!
My desk from IKEA which we built from scratch *PHEW*
A romantic and cozy hideout from the hustle and bustle of life
my little change alley
(check out the mirror with the clock; now got no reason to be late!!!)
*ahem*... so now..wat do ya think of my room? made it feel cozier by creating a feeling of closed up space by putting the divider in the middle of the room. It also serves to display stuff that I like. Nothing spectacular lar..but at least it feels lyke home..Somewhere I can hide from the world; ignore the screams from my mum. Wahaha. hmph..now wats missing are
- A bed platform and a nice thick mattress
- Shelves on the wall(reconsidering tt one becoz of the more than sufficient space on the cupboards and divider),
- A vintage phone!!! to hang on the wall beside my bed
- Pictures on the walls (of Melvin and me!!! and of course mummy dear lar! haha)
- A hanging rack to allow me to hang up my necklaces and clothes
- A nice clock( trying to look for a chalkboard one)
- and not forgetting the HUGE LCD TV!!!
Hehe..can't wait..Then my room will become lyke a home cinema!!! cool bengz.. Don't worrie..I'll show you the end product after everything is ensembled orite. *mUackz*
Mechanics of Life
LIfe may seem treacherous and maybe cruel sometimes but I guess its all in the eyes of the beholder. If one chooses to face it with courage and valor as well as well as a cheery presence then all things would be well. Life can be simple, its just how we look at it. I wish I could see life that way; then perhaps I would live a much happier life, and possibly inject a little bit of sunshine into the lives of people around me...
Anyway, here's a song that I reallie love. The lyrics are reallie meaningful... It tells us that life is much more than the material things in it..its about family, love, facing challenges and learning from it. Its so true yet difficult to fulfill... Nonetheless, enjoy!
Stacie Orrico -- So Simple
Don't need high heels
For a good feel
You can keep the fancy clothes
I'll take walkin in the rain
Over things materia
lI'll trade Melrose and the big names
Give me faces that I know
Just play a melody that everybody knows
Take it down, down, down
And strip it to the core
I don't really need much less is more, more, more
CHORUS:True to life, true to me
The way it's got to be
So simple, so simple, so simple
Live to love, love to be
Absolutely free(so simple, so simple, simple)
Give me wisdom, plain and truthful
Teach me somethin I don't know
Plain as education, inspiration I suppose (yeah yeah)
Give me family, on a Sunday
And I'll be just fine
There's nothing in the world
That's worth more of my time
Take it down, down, down
And strip it to the core
I don't really need much less is more, more, more
-CHORUS x2-
Livin my dream, is my song to the world(let 'em hear it)
Sharin' my soul and spirit
I'm hopin that you hear it
Got one life to live
It's only what you make it
Every new day's a chance worth takin
-CHORUS x2-
