ranting

WARNING: User will be ranting in this post; Any readers not prepared for some "whining" and confused thoughts, please refrain from reading in case of displeasurable reading. Thank you.

Well well, wht shld i say? The fact is i knw not wht to say at this point in time - right from the start of my birthday night. She hasn't explained it to me yet, not tht she's liable to, but i'd like to knw. I hear things from other people, not her, and i get confused. I dont wanna believe, and i wanna hear it all from YOU. Whatever it is, i knw its none of my business to poke in; Just hope you knw wht you're doing. I dont knw. Maybe i jst wna be the one - the one you try to get, not the other way round. Anyway, belly piercing. Yes, kinda sexy and hot, but the most beautiful models and people around dont have 'em.. I make no apologies for being against it 'cos i knw why you're doing it. And i dont think escaping's a good idea. To look good? Let's admit it. You look good enough alrdy. Really. But anyway, wht hurt me the most was this statement back on good ol' MSN. "whts the pt of sayin u hv no right to whn u r anw?" Well. Was nearly speechless at tht sentence but well, maybe i jst care even if im not liable to. I dont knw. Sometimes we can be so different where these things are concerned and sometimes you can get so mch on my nerve whn i feel i'm being taken for granted but yet you're tht same person i'm willing to do almost anything for (and thts like one in a million). You really make me go mad sometimes and make me hurt so much, but thn you do other things like actually bother to look up recipes and cook me my birthday lunch of meesua (smth no one's ever done before) because i mentioned it few days before, try to incorporate green in everything, even on eggs because its my favourite colour and thn i look at you and all's lost in your eyes' gaze. You make confused, you knw tht? So very confused. And at the end of the day, i realise i still ly. So so much.

probably gonna configure the laptop in schl tmrw cos mine's currently configured to NTU. brilliant. oh!

Conversation Four:
Sales person: hi okay so while waiting, could you plse fill this in?
Mel: errr okay (reads and fills in joan's details (tries to rmbr her matric number she jst came to knw 5min before) and does survey)
Sales person: okay thank you

Mel: oh okay
Sales person: okay so you'l automatically logon under the NTU page. whts your username and password?

19

whoo okay. lots to update but let's stick to birthday this post. mm. turning 19 means alot of things. it means a year older, a year of more expectations, and entry into university! scary, but i think we'll all manage fine (:

had a fine cooked meal (though i was extremely bloated and full and near puking stage) of birthday mee sua and red and GREEN dyed eggs plus baked salmon -beams. seriously very touched but i cant tell her tht. her ego might be too big for her thereafter *) but thankYOU for making my birthday this year sucha special one and giving me my first birthday meesua cooked with tlc (or so you say.. haha). thanks to jade too for helping to eat! :D

headed out to meet the rest (ym, mina & xy) at cafe iguana. chilled abit. best part? awesome slice of birthday cake, birthday song and fireworks altogether! :P plus the great company of good friends. headed to MoS thereafter for awhile with hy jade and ym. had to leave at eleven plus cos i hadta be home by twelve :/ but it was pretty fun. though i wasnt really in the mood for clubbing. just to make sure someone doesnt get drunk at least for two hours.. haha.

some other "disturbing" thoughts i have on my mind now, but tht can wait. gna be heading to schl in abit for a quantitative finance introduction workshop just to find out wht its about (: back home for gramps's birthday celebration thereafter.

next post: birthday presents!

* to you, my special friend, thankyou once again. really means alot to me. ily.

in life, you've just gotta suck it up

the title's so true. its part and parcel. just gotta brave the waves and await the calm.

alright. at least i dont feel so helpless now. 2h23min on the phone till 2am.. was good. now we knw more. and im glad about it. stoning at home now. preAsocCamp dinner later @ bugis. its one of those obligatory things yknw. gives me a chance to meet new people though. met one girl in my group by chance at floorball yest (:

we'll see how things go from now. whatever it is, one thing's for sure - i'll be there every step of the way..

on a side note, Burn the Floor - Floor Play's this dance performance thingy, very highly rated. it's somewhat like Lord of the Dance if you've seen it. pretty cool - mainly cos i knw i cant do it ;)

cheers.

burn the floor, my mind and soul

oohkay. let's see. not really in the mood for updates but will get what i can in. mm. went for FLOORBALL recre today with the starringSMU peeps. had a ball of time. it was really xiong though. perspired like mad, ran like crazy but it served its purpose. i forgot every trouble momentarily playing the game(s). shihui and i headed home aft for dinner whilst the guys headed to Cathay. mann im shagged. nothing much on tmrw till the evening - Asoc Camp pre-camp dinner..

well well i'd say alot's been going on lately. not really with me but someone who means alot to me. so it kinda affects me la. maybe i was being insensitive. maybe we all were. i said she's changed. has she? or have we just not looked deep inside? i wish she'd tell me. but she cant say. cant blame her there. but i just wanna help. i feel so helpless and useless now. i really wna cry.

i think, all i want for my birthday this year's for all friendships to hold, and for the problems to be solved. c'mon. we're way stronger than that, arent we?

on a side note, anyone wanna watch Burn the Floor - Floor Play? got student price i think..
anyway im out for now; be back should more thoughts flood my mind. cheerio.

All I am, all I'll be
Everything in this world
All that I'll ever need
Is in your eyes
Shining at me
When you smile I can feel
All my passion unfolding
Your hand brushes mine
And a thousand sensations
Seduce me 'cause I
I do cherish you
For the rest of my life
You don't have to think twice
I will love you still
From the depths of my soul
It's beyond my control
I've waited so long to say this to you
If you're asking do I love you this much
I do
In my world, before you
I lived outside my emotions
Didn't know where I was going
'Till that day I found you
How you opened my life
To a new paradise
In a world torn by change
Still with all my heart
'Till my dying day
(repeat chorus)

i like.

peuan sanit

wow. okay. things've really become unexpected yet somewhat expected. the fear of losing one forever if things go wrong. getting tgt doesnt happen if only one's willing to take the risk. so i guess i'm gna hafta let go. give her up. quite hard, okay VERY tough in fact but wht to do? there's really no other choice for me :( syl said "hmm so conclusion being? you'll just watch her be with someone else? is that it? =/.."; i hadta say, sadly yes. hurts damn much but i guess it's the right thing. at least for now. it'l always be painful to see the one you like/love with someone else, so near yet so far. and i doubt the feelings for this one will ever fade enough for me to feel all right with it. even worse when the feelings are mutual yet the fears are even greater. wo zhen de hen fan. xin tong yknw. majorly so. but aye. as i told syl, i'm cool. and she says "cool your head" or smth to tht effect. hmm.. so yes. we'l leave it here for now i guess. going back to being how we were before's kinda hard. the circumstances're alrdy different and they will never be exactly the same again.. if i knew it'd be like tht, i'd rather i never knew. but yet i'm glad to knw as well. see wht goes through my mind? gives me a headache sometimes :/ tskk.

we both agree this song says it all: (it's a thai song)

เพื่อนคนนึงแอบรักเธอ เก็บงำความลับนั้นอยู่ภายใน
peuan kon neung aeb ruk ter gep ngam kwaam lup nun yoo pai nai
Secretly in love with you, concealing it deep inside me.

ก็ไม่เคยเปิดเผยไป ด้วยกลัวจะเสียใจและเสียเธอ
gor mai ker-ee bert per-ee bai duay glua ja sia jai lae sia ter
I have never disclosed this, for fear of being disappointed or losing you.

ปิดบังอยู่ตั้งนาน แหละมันอัดอั้นใจ
bit bung yoo dtung naan lae mun ut un jai
Withholding it for so long, it keeps distressing me.

ยิ่งเราใกล้ชิดกัน ยิ่งหวั่นไหว
ying rao glai chit gun ying wun wai
The closer we become, the more vulnerable I am.

เธอสบตา กลับหลบตาเธออยู่เรื่อยไป
ter sop-dtaa glup lop dtaa ter yoo reuay bai
You glance at me, then I divert my eyes away looking down.

ห่างแค่เพียงเอื้อมมือ แต่มันก็แสนไกล
haang kae piang euam meu dtae mun gor saen glai
You are just within my arm's reach, but it seems so far away.

ยิ่งเธอเป็นเหมือนเพื่อนสนิท ยิ่งไม่มีสิทธิ์จะบอกไป
ying ter ben meuan peuan sa-nit ying mai mee sit ja bork bai
The closer we are as friends, the less eligible it is for me to say.

หากเป็นใครไม่ใช่เธอ สักวันอาจให้รู้ อาจบอกไป
haak ben krai mai chai ter suk wun art hai roo art bork bai
If it is someone else other than you, someday I may let him know and say it out.

แต่เป็นเธอที่คุ้นเคย ก็เลยต้องยับยั้งคอยชั่งใจ
dtae ben ter tee koon ker-ee gor ler-ee dtong yup yung koi chung jai
However it is the well-acquainted you, I have to hold it back to keep my cool.

ปิดบังอยู่ตั้งนาน แหละมันอัดอั้นใจ
bit bung yoo dtung naan lae mun ut un jai
Withholding it for so long, it keeps distressing me.

ยิ่งเราใกล้ชิดกัน ยิ่งหวั่นไหว
ying rao glai chit gun ying wun wai
The closer we become, the more vulnerable I am.

เธอสบตา กลับหลบตาเธออยู่เรื่อยไป
ter sop-dtaa glup lop dtaa ter yoo reuay bai
You glance at me, then I divert my eyes away looking down.

ห่างแค่เพียงเอื้อมมือ แต่มันก็แสนไกล
haang kae piang euam meu dtae mun gor saen glai
You are just within my arm's reach, but it seems so far away.

ยิ่งเธอเป็นเหมือนเพื่อนสนิท ยิ่งไม่มีสิทธิ์จะบอกไป
ying ter ben meuan peuan sa-nit ying mai mee sit ja bork bai
The closer we are as friends, the less eligible it is for me to say.

ห่างแค่เพียงเอื้อมมือ แต่มันก็แสนไกล
haang kae piang euam meu dtae mun gor saen glai
You are just within my arm's reach, but it seems so far away.

ยิ่งเธอเป็นเหมือนเพื่อนสนิท ยิ่งไม่มีสิทธิ์จะบอกไป ว่ารักเธอ
ying ter ben meuan peuan sa-nit ying mee sit ja bork bai waa ruk ter
The closer we are as friends, the less eligible it is for me to say I love you.

(Interlude)

ห่างแค่เพียงเอื้อมมือ แต่มันก็แสนไกล

i really do..

don't really knw wht to say or think

sighhhhhhh.

i'm sorry for making things so difficult for you :(

it's time i do what's right i guess.. the fear's logical, but maybe i just didn't see it that way. 've been such an ass really. selfish and jealous. if i just let go, just heard those words without hoping for anything whatsoever, none of this would've happened. but then again, i don't think i could have. it's years of feelings, not some crush i change from time to time. it's come full circle and i guess it may never be. sometimes i think god's just a tad cruel to let something like that happen. its like having something so near yet so far, right next to you yet so outta your grasp. that really hurts. sob. the pain's a tad overwhelming at the moment but i'l do fine i suppose (sometimes i secretly think thts why im always the easier option to sacrifice). gotta do what's right to make you happy.

friends are friends forever, if the lord's the lord of 'em. and i friend would not say never, 'cos the welcome will not end; THOUGH IT'S HARD TO LET YOU GO, in the father's hands we know, that a lifetime's not too long to live as friends.
always a friend and more to me.

i'l do what's right. i promise. trust me.

will you PLAY with me?

in dire need of sleep now. was so tired but couldnt sleep. dont even know what i said last night. all i know's that its hurting pretty badly. all i can hear are the sounds made in the cab; those i tried to block out but then ironically heard everso clearly even amidst the blasting sounds of "music". technically its my fault cos i shouldnt mind it at all. [like who am i to mind? you're the person "kiapped" in the middle, you dumbass. GET OUT! i say so but yet cant do so] but why do i mind it so much? the answer's pretty obvious. party was pretty disappointing but an experience nonetheless. back to hy's house after a long detour, cornered, out, talked. the long tight hug from the back in silence; nothing needed to be said - i wish we stayed there forever. "i'm sorry" was about all i could mouth besides constantly pulling hairs from the carpet. lookin' you in the eye would only make me detox which i controlled all-night. don't go, i wanted to say. yin1 wei4 wo3 shi4 zhen1 de4 zhen1 de4 hao2 xi3 huan1 ni2.

next step? we'll see.

(and bytheway, i'm never asking anyone to dance again. not tht i personally did so but still.. i'm so insulted.)

i'm just. lost. you found me, lifted me on high thn gave me up the very next moment. whyyy? :(

just because you gave me up doesnt mean i can give you up. i've been waiting forever to hear you say wht you did tht night. i was so so happy. now tht you did, and aft whts happened recently, i'm not so sure i wanted to hear it in the first place. cos it hurts so so much to see you with someone else. and i'm jst being jealous and selfish. I'M SORRY.

national dragonboat festival 2007 - 30th june, 1st july

saturday

heats - we came in first ! ming and victoria came to support ! :) followed us around and took pictures for me (felt like a star HAHA) race started at the horn, we broke out at the start and led to the finish with a time of 5min22sec .
it was really great and the feeling of breaking the finish line first's smth i'l never ever forget. esp on my virgin dragonboat race. after tht it was time to rest and get ready for sunday's final (:

sunday

we lost the final ): dont knw wht exactly went wrong - messy apparently. rowed until my arm nearly fell off and i nearly collapsed at the end but still.. sigh. at least our timing improved - 5min10sec. this has taught me tht teamwork can be everything and without, it can break everything.. thanks to everyone on the team for all the encouragement and serene's "mel, quan kao ni le!" before the race; spurred me to give it all without a care of wht cld happen past the finish line. it was all-in-all a great great experience - learnt so much and got to knw so many more really nice people. thanks to raphael and rueben for teaching me everything i knw about the sport and for walking with us every step of the way. after tht we talked bout the Round Singapore Challenge with an estimated finish time of 30hours. whoo endurance paddling. i'm definitely up for it! we'll see.

today

woke up later (yay), breakfast, brought siblings to cine to watch Goal!2. was pretty okay. to be continued.. hmm. thn to SCB to return my pass and hand in the timesheet.. back home to stone, got the email about CityChase 2007! huiying said she'll join with me but we'll see how. really dont wna torture her. its an amazingrace kinda thing. sent the mail to gool ol' senior Serene. she's damn on bout it. if she cant join corporate with the rest, perhaps i'l pair with her and spare hy the agony (thanks for offering though dear (:)

speaking of the weather (damn random HAHA) its super humid, cant stop perspiring at all! argh. hvnt exercised today, doubt i'm gna do it. lol.

i love this song by MLTR; it's called Nothing To Lose. enjoy (:

There are times when you make me laugh
There are moments when you drive me mad
there are seconds when I see the light
though many times you made me cry
There's something you don't understand
I want to be your man
Chorus
Nothing to lose your love to win
Hoping so bad that you'll let me in
I'm at your feet Waiting for you
I've got time And nothing to lose
There are times when I believe in you
These moments when I feel close to you
there are times I think That I am yours
though many times I feel unsure
There's something you don't understand
I want to be your man
Chorus
Nothing to lose your love to win
Hoping so bad that you'll let me in
I'm on your feet waiting for you
I've got time and nothing to lose
I'll always be around you keep an eye on you
and i won't let you down cos you're the only one
Chorus
Nothing to lose your love to win
Hoping so bad that you'll let me in
I'm at your feet waiting for you
I've got time and nothing to lose

out, hot and wet

was tht wht jst happened? (:

Wed/Thur
okay. cant rmbr whn i last updated. wrk's been pretty busy but let's see. update from wed thn. aft wrk, met with ym thn hy thn went to play those "turn turn" toy machines at Toys 'R' Us :D followed by dinner @ White Dog Cafe VivoCity tgt with syl and seishen, thn headed over to stjames (all for hy's birthday celeb) without the 2 of em. haha. not bad. considering wht im supposed to be i still got free entry and the voucher somemore. hy was like "walamak you got the voucher even ah?" and i proudly beamed "YES". rofl. ethg aft tht was pretty blur (literally and otherwise). got fed quite abit to drink but wasnt high lah. (good drinker wht. haha) thn started dancing abit. thn whoo. was told smth i'd never expected to hear ever but was actually dang happy to hear it. heh. thn i lost smth :/ damn noob. go figure, but have gotten measurements for a new one alrdy. guilty guilty.. but cant control lahh. also, had to leave early, but had no idea where ym danced to with the key -_- so grabbed some cash from hy and headed home/waited till 5+am till they came with my bag and work stuff (thanks for carrying ethg for me dear (: even though you say it super didnt fit and was damn heavy) didnt sleep at all, got up from lying down 6+ and got ready for wrk. staring at the screen at wrk, i was so afraid i'd fall asleep! but i lasted 8 hours :) met hy aft tht, headed to esplanade, walked talked and lets say we found a pretty good action plan for now (: and thanks for buying the GREEN nail polish and painting yr nails tht colour.. [my favourite colour's green! lol] she sent me home aft tht, driving with one hand half the time *) beams.

Yesterday
Work, didnt have much to do in the morning except some service enhancement input of total fees, thn headed to the gym for PT with rendy. (oohh. cant believe victoria abandoned me for Tampines lahhh) mann i swear he could've killed me but it was a good session (: so good until aft tht i had difficulty showering by myself lahh :/ silly girl wanted to come drop by at CF but it hadta rain at serangoon :( so hadta drive and all to expensive parking in town. after wrk met at Raffles Place (thanks for taking the train down (:) and thn took back to PS. haha. had dinner at the Manhattan Fish Market thn Ocean's Thirteen at GV. again, unexpected things happen, and im glad they do sometimes :) someone was damn noob ah. haha. but partly my fault. lol. left arm massage for ya.. thn she forgot where her car was -_- finally decided its on Level 4, i walked there tgt thn left for the train station whilst she went over to Wisma. yepp. OHYA. warning. plse dont watch ANY movie sitting at the 1st row. i swear our necks could've been broken but it was all in all great :P

Tuesday, June 19, 2007

(:

oohh did i mention i secretly wanna remian "the kid" forever and get pampered by all the adults? yes i do :)
like how victoria never lets me pay for stuff, and even offers to buy me clothes for uni;
or how shauna pays for the cabfare refusing to let me pay 'cept for twenty cents that she didnt have :D;
how people at the office (mainly victoria) call me "xiao gua" and go around saying "xiao gua hai mei you chi leh" and they'd scurry to get me to eat (:
mann thats bliss.
but as shauna said "enjoy it whilst it lasts!" haha definitely dear :)
alright just wanted to post my outright dream.
ahahh i dream of many other things. but those take time. everything takes time.. shun qi zi ran ba.

what a day

whooo basically work was nothing much, still chasing Ops from overseas to mail me the updated lists asap so i wont hafta rush like a mad cow on the last day (which i cleverly predict will be the day they all come flooding in and marks a sleepless night for me :/) the dateline has alrdy been postponed for heaven's sake! read my book, formatted the base list, thats bout it. lunch with vic in btwn, tried on a top for her to see (so didnt fit) haha.

on a happier note, met Shauna and company outside OUB Centre to head to trng (: shared cab with her. for once we spoke more than one sentence, which either she goes "how's your week been?" or i go "hey you need some water?" or "you alright?" and she'd just smile back :) paddling was good today. pretty awesome in fact as compared to saturday. lol. was definitely less drained as well.
been having a sharp pain in my right elbow which goes down my arm. hope its nothing. race in less than 2 weeks! chopchop everyone!
shouted the counts - luckily no sorethroat ah. hahah.

now im back home, showered and fed and pretty shagged. haha. yet another day at work tmrw, hy's birthday dinner thereafter then stjames. think i'l just escort her there thn i'l go home. last 2 weeks at my internship. dont wanna mess up!

so alright. thats about it for today. lots to say, fingers dont permit further typing [yes thats just an excuse] lol.

im out-*

shall go off now.
till the next post!

Sunday, June 10, 2007

it's been a while

ooohhkayy. when you're caught up with lots of other stuff you tend to forget things like your blog. hah. anyways let's see what i can recap. basically alot of exercising (yayness) and just internship, which ends end of this month. phew. it's fun, people are nice, it's just tht i dont wna wrk anymore before schl starts! mm kk let me see. have started PT and strict regime at CF alrdy. and mygoodness, i swear im a genius cos i made huiying go to the gym! even got her asking me to torture her lah (gotta admit im good :p). in exchange for a good massage which i obviously dont mind giving. haha. paddling's good and getting somewhere. twice a week trng plus my own strength trng with rendy (who's honestly trying to kill me and offers to sew my hand back if his exercises detaches em from my body :/) - i sure hope i get enough results to optimise my perf during the race.. prolly gonna hafta miss the MILK Run on 1st july cos i've got my race down at bedok. but'l prolly meet hy ym etc if i manage to get em to go walk. lol.

the Anlene Orchard Mile this morning was pretty cool, all women's race. had Melody Chen running in front of me for abit thn she zoomed off. rofl. hey, i was shagged okay. cldnt move my arms at all. saw YANHAN there! :D think her canoe team volunteered. yea. left shortly after though cos i was alone :( and dripping wet.

besides tht, there's prolly alot more to say but i just cant remember or they just cant be put into words. the eighth of june was a pretty sentimental day but thanks to joan, i survived it. "u can do it.:).u got me at least". haha yes i do hon (:

soooo let's see. gna hafta shop up for my "new" foods now. change of taste i'd reckon. brown rice and wholemeal bread.. hmm. so fun. victoria's surely gna scold me cos she says "everything in moderation.." haha.

well well tmrw's another day, the start of another week. and marks the countdown of joan and i working at our jobs, before i embark on several camps (some compulsory some not) before term starts ten days after a special day. HAHA.

alrightey. im still in pain now. anybody wanna offer a massage? lol. been listening to this MLTR song alot lately. shall share it with yall.

Lately you have been asking me
if all my words are true
Don't you know I'll do anything for you
Sometimes I haven't been good to youSometimes I've made you cry
And I am sorry for everything but I promise you girl
I promise you this
[Chorus:]When the blue night is over my face
on the dark side of the world in space
When I'm all alone with the stars above
you are the one I love
So there's no need to worry girl
My heart is sealed for you
And no one's gonna take it away cos' I promise you girl
I promise you this
[Chorus:]When the blue night is over my face
on the dark side of the world in space
When I'm all alone with the stars above
you are the one I love
Your voice is calling to me in my dreams
My love is stronger than it's ever been

(: chorus tune's really good. enjoy!

frostbite

I'm running on empty alone in a steel cold town
The colours are fading to grey when you're not around
I'm going over what you said
The words keep ringing in my head
What happened to the promisesThe promises we made
(Chorus)
You gave me frostbite in my heart
'Cause you had me branded from the start
Nobody knows what I'm going through (hey baby why..)
You gave me frostbite in my heart
'Cause you tore the love we had apart
Somebody tell me now what I should do
I'm driving alone with the radio on in my car
I'm staring at faces in places that used to be ours
Can't you see what you do to me
I'm drowning in my misery
That fatal kiss of destiny
Is clinging on for evermore
(Chorus)
(I had to let you know) I keep thinking of you(I can't let go)
You know it's all that I do(I had to let you know)
'Cause you are still on my mind all the time
Don't leave me hanging
You had me branded (Branded from the start)
(Chorus)
Why leave me hanging...
You had me branded
Don't keep me hanging on (Hey baby why...)

to forget the <3ache, its time to bring on the gyming

okay. so here's the other part of the weekend. shant mention it here but lets say her words affected me quite abit. for once in a long(er than usual time), i actually felt "heartpain". but i'l be fine. wht was i thinking anyway? so thts tht. hvnt replied. dont knw wht to say. i need time i suppose.

now to the better stuff.
yesterday, mum met me after work to help me sign up for CF since im under 21 (worse still, i get stopped to be checked for nc16 movies sometimes -_-). was supposed to be some free trial thingy for 2 weeks but now i can be there for life (: literally. long story, but i dont knw wht rendered so much attention, apparently mum said i had the entire crew of "men in black " behind me. i didnt even knw! GM came personally to say hi and offered me stuff. got pullover and sling bag too. pretty cool stuff. got a trial PT thingy too for a month. my PT's Rendy. looks like a pretty nice guy. hafta book my first session soon though. better give him a call. the best part? mum paid for all tht cos she said it wldnt be a waste cos its like my life :D (whn you're single, these things become your passion. jkjk) but. subsequently if im gna let Rendy cont to train me, im gna hafta pay myself. soooo.. part-time/weekend jobs anyone? i think im really gna need it. each session's like 100bucks. gna be real broke in no time mann. so plse let me knw if yall have any "lobang"s!
anyhow, aside the 7-page self-realisation a.k.a "ouch" sms over the weekend, all's good.

whn i went to the gym today, had a weird feeling. like many eyes watching. but tht happened yesterday, and almost all the time anyway so i shant be too bothered. haha. card's not ready yet, but it shld be soon. whoo.

shagged nonetheless. did practically nothing at work today. surprisingly, its more tiring to try to stay awake from boredom! hardly spoke a hundred words today. thankfully the French Open started ard 3pm after rain suspensions. i "watched" it on my laptop by viewing the Live Scoring. so i watch the scores of all courts change as they are being played. but i see no human images. rofl. hey, thts the best you can do at wrk with Websense tht blocks out almost everything thts not news and not banking&finance :/

gymmed after work.
bro's singles match against Shogo tmrw 11am @ Kallang.
gna watch.
thn, stayover at hy's prolly.
actually, feel like jst watching some sad movie(s) so i'd have an excuse to cry. hah.
but nah. strong people dont cry :)

- afterall, you cant lose what you never had

the road full of ups and downs

okie dokes. so im back here after the tiring weekend i've had. it was good and bad, to say the least. had fun @ siloso thn heartache. but i'd say things aint tht bad still. as they say, always try to look on the bright side of things. even if there's no bright side, you create one yourself.



so lets see. i had many things to update.



1) Dinner with Victoria

ah this was fun (: she's like a big sister i've never had. had fun talking to her and all. its amazing to see the amount of faith she has in god. makes me feel ashamed :( we went to newton circus after work for dinner (waited for her abit). was carrying the paddle ard so i looked damn weird but thn she said "dont complain.. im walking with you so we're even". HAHA. she's funny. thn on the way back she tried to sing a hymn for me. i totally didnt knw wht song it was lah. but good try :D



2) Work

my internship has the consistency of the heart rate monitor in the hospital :/ work comes in spurts and major ones at tht. either two days cant sleep or an entire day without a single task. if only it was more even lahh. had to even bring home and do. until charles was like "still working??" lol. so yea. worked till like 12 mn. cldnt take it. went to sleep. next day chiong-ed everything. managed to submit it before the end fo the day. phew. at least i got treated to ramen for my good wrk. HAHA.



3) Training

had a really good session on saturday, even though it was blazing hot and we only had one small boat cos everyone else's trng for the race too :/ sat in front of shauna (:D) got to row after they came back from the first lap of warmup. raphael said we (shauna, juliana and myself) have improved alot (beams) so we got to row with the seasoned rowers AND practice/try starts! pretty tough but i think we did okay! we'l be doing more of it from now i reckon. got my life jacket. yayness.



4) NUS Welcome Tea

it was a good session. totally fitted in unlike in the other place. ahem. as i was saying, had the tea recep (where i saw tiara and totally got to suan Jasmine, whom i jst got to knw, from t21! :P)followed by the campus tour (we visited sheares hall!) thn the Usp cum career services talk. it was in the midst of the sheares hall prep talk tht i received the sms from home saying tht i got offered smu accountancy (: so thn after tht i didnt pay much attention alrdy. heh. though nus is really not bad.. i'l still be gg for their sports camp i think. ohyea. was walking ard all day with my paddle (almost injuring many HAHA). but i was halfdead okayy. damn tired. sheryl had to help me with my other nonsense along the way. luckily her parents fetched us there! ddint go to st. james cos i was totally shagged. made my way home and plopped dead on the bed. rofl.



5) SWATCH FIVB BEACH VOLLEY WORLD TOUR 2007

held at siloso sentosa. this hadta be the highlight of my weekend. headed to church in the morning thn packed my stuff. napped too. waited for huiying to pick me up. headed to siloso's Cafe Del Mar! we were totally baking. my margherita melted the moment it arrived! okay. two moments. haha. we thn spooted a shaded bed and quickly moved there. closer to 3 we headed to the championship area. HAD TO buy tickets cos they set up a stadium. so we did. got a goodie bag too. boy was it hot. i thought i was gna be roasted. but it was awesome! the saves, the spikes and the body blocks. not to mention hot brazilian asses. HAHA. now i sound like a perv but huiying spotted, not me! lol. but it was great. jst whn you think the point is over, walaa! awesome saves from diving hot bods come out from no where and everyone jst cheers in amazement. really glad i managed to catch it. goodness knws whn they'l return to singapore again.





























okay im not too good with uploading photos and all. so no captions either. lol. need em? jst ask me (:

alright im out. laters.

i'll stand by you

Wednesday, May 23, 2007

shagged

ahwell. the post title says it all, doesnt it? im totally beat. worked for a full 11.5 hours today almost non-stop 'cept for toilet breaks and filling my water bottle and a few occasional 10-second daydreaming and thoughts running about. lol. basically tried my best to do as much of the template as i could. still a long way to go. ming's lent me her paddle! so i wont hafta use the SDBA's paddles for training anymore (: gotta bring it home before saturday though.

so NUS Welcome ceremony it is on Saturday. will prolly leave St. James early though. dont knw wht time i can last till!

so let's see. im really too tired to update (alot to say actually but cant "pen" 'em down 'cos its restricted access on the Net at work) but at least im here! on a last note, a reply sms wrote smth like this, "she just wants to let it be for the moment. dont think too much". so there it is. leave things as they are for now i suppose. and we'll see how things go from now. hmm.

love me for a reason, let the reason be love; was tht the reason? or was i just a toy to be thrown around..

lesson number one

lesson number one? DONT COMPLAIN WHEN YOU HAVE NOTHING TO DO. 'cos thats what i did and guess what? got super overloaded today :/ format a whole new template from the original list i did up. omg. its hell tiring. didnt get to eat lunch. stole bites at biscuits and had a milo. ohwells. glad the day's over at least. didnt get to do any of my paddling exercises today :(

NUS Business School Welcome Reception's this saturday 26th May at 230pm at the University Hall. ends pretty late though. 'cos its that, then campus tour/career thumbprint followed by party at St. James Powerhouse. havent decided whether to go or not. going straight from paddling you see. HMM.

well well, many thoughts again today as usual (im a thinker mann. lol). how fast life's changing, its amazing. sometimes shocking. people come and go in our lives too. have you ever wished some who've entered and left'd just stay for a lifetime? i have, but what can i do? life aint always about getting your way i've learnt. its about handling things that come your way as best as you can. the ending will then undoubtly be sweet somehow.

i think one bad thing 'bout me's that i tend to be too emo and too sentimental. the world's not gonna care mann. time to toughen up. as someone told me, LEARN TO LET GO. na de qi, fang de xia.. fan shi dou yao zhe yang. seems pretty tough but i shall try. hey, its been more than six months. its high time i moved on.

i asked countless times "will you be my friend again?"; no answer. at all. sometimes i think i should just give up. its tiring to be the only one trying. yet some parts tell me it'll always be more than just a case of friends. why's that so? is it good or bad? right now, i think i just need my sleep before i get more sick. cant afford to do so.

so before i sign off, how's everyone out there? good? i sure hope so. life's short so just live it to the best you can aye. love like there's no tomorrow, live like its your last. my motto. you may get hurt, but hey, at least you know you felt happiness whilst it lasted :) and thats xing fu.

cheerios -winks.

Tuesday, May 22, 2007

bitter start, sweet ending..

alright. what can i say? the week got off to a very bad start with a quarrel over university admission. got scolded, called insensitive and what not. was pretty much really affected 'cos she fussed over it and i was really angry 'cos my intention was totally misunderstood (as always). yet, thinking 'bout it from her point of view, i guess i was being a tad insensitive, assuming it aint sore anymore. cold war for the entire day until i came home, all chilled alrdy. decided to apologise and all so i messaged her. things're pretty cool now so yea. all's well.

but. still going nowhere with the uni acceptance though. mrsloke says NUS or NTU but it really depends on what you want to do next time. mssoong says whoa really tough choice, depends on what you wanna do in the future. so there. the question is. WHAT DO I WANT TO DO IN THE FUTURE?? accountancy i'd shout but it aint no longer possible unless i mug my butt off in year one and get considered for a double degree which'd mean five years of studying. whoo. we'll see how things go.

Swatch FIVB Beach Volley World Tour starting thursday through sunday. missed signing up as a volunteer :( hey. you getta see hot people mann. who wouldnt wanna? haha. so i guess i'd be making a trip down to soak in the sun and watch some top notch beach volley (:

aight. that aside, i've really REALLY gotta start building up my muscle endurance again - preferably not through heavy weights training (im done with that - six years is long enough). it's not gonna last the entire race come end june if it stays at this stage (it aint too bad but far from good trust me). apparently its 800m, lasting 'bout 5minutes hopefully; so we're doing six minutes paddling non-stop now with a few pull-tens in between to really push ourselves, and im bearly lasting those intervals =/. also, the problem is that there's no land training so that makes things a tad harder for me. gotta self-train i reckon. i need an effective one month plan! somebody help.

attempted to bring my bike out for a spin again after 47194791074312 days but the tyres "pangchek" :/ brought it back in and mum goes "rain?" HMM.

i was thinking. is everyone afraid of loneliness? what happens when one is really lonely? what happens to those who've not only lost a lover through a break-up or forced separation, but have only themselves in this whole wide world? with no one and nothing to lean on in times of need. no one to give 'em a tight hug and say perhaps, "everything's gonna be alright". how'd they feel? when i think of that, i momentarily stop complaining. and just for a moment, i close my eyes and feel your presence with me again. and for that moment, i feel the gentle breeze against my cheeks and the warmth and comfort that has been missing for a long long time.

HELP!

oohh okayy. talking 'bout dilemmas and speaking of the devil, just checked my SMU application online and i've gotten into SMU but not into accountancy :( its business. so whats it gonna be? NUS, NTU or SMU business? the course, the campus or what? ohmy. its gonna be tough. let's just hope that any choice i make, it'll be the right one. nahh i trust that it would. so now, let's see which one i decide on. anyone wanna gimme any feedback or opinions, please feel free to do so! much appreciated :)

a new beginning?

alright. guess this marks a "new start" and yet another attempt of mine at keeping a blog (my friends'd know that the previous attempts were utterly futile and im as bad at keeping a blog as i am at keeping pets, mainly because im allergic to most of 'em) haha.

okayy. that aside, 2007 has been pretty steady for me. swinging single and just VERY busy with work. PwC was a good experience and now my internship at standardchartered's keeping me in the office for looonnggg hours everyday - which's pretty good i might add, 'cos it keeps me outta trouble and occupied :) as usual, thoughts've been running circles in my mind and well, let's just say not everything can be forgotten or settled within months. im reckoning it'd take years. ahwell.

i've also embarked on my new hobby out in the sun. hopefully i'l be able to sustain it (let's be honest here. my willpower aint that strong all the time). also, i've set my sight on the abs. haha. well that'd be the real challenge 'cos i've never tried it before but well. given the slightly more freedom handed to me this year, im thinking i could keep my relationships going better now. university's also way different from college so i'd say things could be much better if it'd happen now. but anyways. im speaking in riddles again (and joantiong'd disapprove of it 'cos i'd confuse her HAHA).

so yes. university. start of a new journey for us. many friends leaving for abroad :( some i know of and have been able to send off with a big hug and gift, and others perhaps leaving silently. you'll all be missed.

have yet to hear from SMU. still praying real hard. first choice for NUS and second for NTU offered. the course or the school? school, needless to say, it'd be NUS :) but yet, God being the fair man that he is, has put the better courses at NTU, thus creating a definite dilemma :/ a wise person'd choose the latter varsity but i, being the "stay in school allday also no problem only if i love the school" person i am, NUS seems much more appealing. where distance is concerned, SMU reigns. the people and school culture there suits me too (and so my friends say). ohwell. we'll see i guess.

right now im down with a bad flu and "on-off" fever :( swear it sucks being sick 'cos i really really dont like visiting the doc (its a long story - childhood trauma; it goes a long wayy). okie dokes. its been a pretty long entry for the first. more interesting ones to come i hope!
