I've been known to fall in love but sometimes love is just not enough



Must be wondering why no lovey dovey post on 29th? Someone screwed it up. No 'happy 25th!' text messages, no love, care & concern, no nothing. Hello to a bad month ahead. I always believe that a good start of the month is very important. And 29th of every month is a start of a new month for us but apparently, it was ruined but we'll see. Hopefully this month is exceptionally; despite the ugly start, it is still good month after all.

Bff was late, as usual >:@ Had to forgo our Mac's breakfast plan. She went to the mall to get it for me before coming over to the train station but it was sold out to the previous customer in front of her. so she bought me.....

 
Kinder Bueno & Famous Amos!
Thanks bff :>

GP presentation went well. I didn't allow all that to spoil my mood for the presentation. Need to be in a good mood to do well! Met Jems at the train station, took shuttle bus to school. On the way, I asked her about her celebration with her boyf. Like what I always say, expect the unexpected. Her boyfriend got her a Juicy Couture watch! It totally surprised her. When we were out that day, I told her who knows what he'd get & he might just surprise her haha! Back to GP presentation.. Marc came unprepared, it was really funny. He introduced himself, said he chose PR 'cos he liked Mr Sivam ahahahaha it was really funny. He also told us he is "going to San Diego". Seriously, FOS. FOS = Full of shit! Jems' presentation went great, she left for lunch with her "starved like an African kid" brother. HAVE FACEBOOK OR TWITTER PLZZZZ JEMSY! *psycho psycho psycho*

After presentation, we were supposed to go back for class but class ended already. On the way back, we bumped into Jeanette!! Haha I called her & she alighted at Tiong Bahru instead of Outram Park. Silly her! So we took the train back together & she alighted at Hougang station :> We were both starving so  went to the mall & had very late lunch at Pizza Hut!

 
My fav drumlets!

 
Bff's

 
Mine!

 
A very happy bff with her student meal!

 
Me in the headband that caused my head to be in pain for hours :/

After lunch, we went to 7-eleven! On the way home with Nette, she showed me all her Mr Men & Little Miss keychains from 7-eleven. So cute!! Bought Vicks & lollipop for two capsules hehehe :)

 
 

We got Little Miss Shy, Mr Small, two Mr Greedy! Gave Mr Small to bb, Mr Greedy to sissy, I kept Little Miss Shy & bff kept the other Mr Greedy :) so cute. We both were so addicted to it hahaha wanted to get more but the girl behind the cashier was really rule. Kept giving us attitude & those stares. We're gonna get more the next time we buy something from 7-eleven! I really wanna get Little Miss Sunshine & Little Miss Chatterbox :(

My arms won't free you; my heart won't try

Love is the scars on your knees, the leftover food in the refrigerator, the song the birds sing, the pain you inflict, the sweet nothingness that flutters from your lover's mouth, a half-complete cigarette, diet coke which fizzles on your tongue, the rainbow sprinkles on your cupcake, the battered package you received in the mail the other day, the sound of wind escaping through a small gap in the window, the dampness of your hair, the chipped red varnish on your fingernails, your grandmother's musical box, the ballet shoes you've had since you were five, the music playing on your car stereo, the flaky paint on your walls, the bubblegum stuck under desks, the tooth-fairy, your hands and the things you can make with them, the kisses you blow, the clothes you wear, 5 AM morning breath, your sensitive teeth, the tingly feeling you get when you get touched at certain parts of your body, the tangles in your lover's hair, sleepless nights, overdosing on painkillers, undeserved success and recognition, telling lies and not getting caught, blacking out from consuming too much alcohol, being desired by multiple parties, solving a mathematical problem, watching the people around you, watching the people messing up around you, screaming out your window in the middle of the night, flaming your lover's ex, smudged mascara, disheveled hair and smeared lipstick, the coffee and bagel you digest on a daily basis, little children, silence, recyclable materials, trees, photosynthesis, growth, development.

No, love is you, I, and a careless mixture of everything else we worry about.

A heart can hallucinate if it's completely starved for love

 
Blackout at Outram Park station?

MJ's news is everywhere. Hell lot of #MJ & #MichaelJackson on Twitter. Makes me really sad seeing all those news reporting about him. Life is short, so unpredictable. Yet another lesson for us all to treasure & cherish all that we have around us before it is too late. Before you know it, they are gone & never coming back again.

Family = Hell. Next, please.
Bff was so sweet, she accompanied me to get my lappie's adapter before class started. Missed the first half hour of class though. Really appreciate it bff (: The adapter costed me $85! I wanted to get the battery as my battery is as good as dead but it is $159. Overspent this month (with I don't know what, seriously), thus I only got the adapter. And like what bff said, I don't bring the lappie out often, the adapter is good enough.

Class was boring, as usual. What's so surprising about it anyway? I was freezing & trying to concentrate without allowing the cold environment affect me. We bought a cup of hot Milo but it didn't make me feel any better. It made my throat really itchy though!

After we were dismissed, bff & I met bb at the mall & we had dinner together at Ajisen!

 
It's Milo, you want some?

My Cha Shu ramen!
Would've ordered Spicy Cha Shu or Tom Yam if not for my throat :(

Bb & her Tom Yum ramen, very happy

Bff & her Spicy Cha Shu ramen & a lot of requests :/

White fish yum yum



Dinner was superb. Walked out of the restaurant feeling like my tummy's gonna burst any time. Walked around, went Prime before heading home. Bb & bff walked me home before they left.


Happy birthday Jemsy, we luv you :)
P/s: hope you have fun with boyf tmr!!

It's hard to be safe, it's difficult to be happy


HI Y'ALL I AM BACK!!
The trip was pretty alright, much better than I expected. Spent more than I expected! Bought hell lot of things teehee but yeh, this time I really shopped the blues away. I came back feeling much better, much lighter, much happier. Went without make-up throughout the whole trip, let my face & skin breathe! I'm getting used to my pale look already :)


Day 1
Zel & I only slept at 5am, woke up an hour later to prepare. It was more like a nap, I could barely open my eyes. Crying + sleepless = eye swollen like fuck! Gran was at my place early 'cos Uncle Lee drove her.. Auntie Shirley, Uncle Eric & their two girls cabbed over to our place quite late & I almost fell asleep while waiting!

Budget terminal is really..budget. They only got Hanis(Han's express outlet), Mac's & a magazine stand, that's all. Once you step into the terminal, you can see everything. But good enough, I guess, good for those who wants to fly but tight on cashflow or those who fly all the time. Save costs!


Had breakfast at Mac's, while the adults have their breakfast at Hanis. I love sausage mcmuffin without egg <3 I cut down a lot of cold drinks lately. Been drinking chinese tea, hot coffee, tea or milo. I don't know what got into me but hot drinks is good, especially for us girls. Else the cramps will kill us!

 
  
 

After we checked in, I shopped at the duty-free area & spent close to $60 of Victoria's Secrets! A cosmetic pouch, two eye shadows & one glitter liner! 'Cos Aunt Shirley & I spent above $90, we were given this metallic logo bag! But she let me have it 'cos I was telling mom that it's damn pretty, teehee thanks a lot Aunt Shirley!!

 
 

After the boarding gates. See how budget our budget terminal is!? But still, yay for cheaper fares!! Honestly, it was my first (virgin!) ride on a budget air plane. Really budget ok! Dad & I can't stop saying how budget it is. No cushion on the seat, no blankie, no food, no drinks, no entertainment, no newspaper!! We can't complain, can we? We only paid $80 for this ticket! Uncle Eric had this promo thingy, thus the cheap price. I definitely prefer SIA..but who doesn't? For the comfort & entertainment.

We got there in 45 minutes, or even earlier. I sat in the plane with Gran. She's so adorable, the way she signs her name, damn cute! She's a great companion anyway, kept laughing at whatever nonsense I said. She said she don't really like this plane, so I said, "ok wait until I earn enough money I'll charter a plane just for us ok!" & she laughed. How cuteeee :)

 
  
  
 

Look at Jenae trying to do the peace sign! Damn cuuuute she kept trying t do it but failed haha and kept looking at her fingers weirdly, must be wondering why she can't do it hahaha! The second picture, thanks to Zel, I didn't know she was taking but yeh, I was stoned hahaha. Jenae is so adorable, but very very very naughty!! Even her granny can't stand her, kept telling Aunt Shirley how naughty she was after she comes back from work. Still adorable, anyhow :)

When the van arrives, it took us an hour to get to the hotel. I fell asleep almost immediately after I put on my shades & iPod. Though it was damn hot, the sun shining into the van but I still managed to nap. Too tired, I supposed. Two hours of sleep, totally insufficient! When we got to the hotel, I kept telling sissy that I wanna sleep & can skip shopping for sleep just for today hahaha!

 
 

We stayed at The Federal Hotel instead. Was supposed to stay in Marriott but if we were to book, we've to book for four nights instead of just three. So dad sticked to our original plan. The hotel's quite okay..but I wouldn't advice anyone to stay there if you were to go KL. Won't tell you why here, ask me in private & I'll tell you :D

 
 
Wonton mee pok for Che
  
Chicken rice for my maid
  
Wonton mee for Jermaine
  
Roasted duck noodles for me & sissy
 

After resting in the hotel room for awhile, we headed out for food. We were starving!! The noodle house at Sungei Wang is damn good. 'twas our second time there already, damn yummy! Sis was like asking me why I chose to drink chinese tea haha I don't know I just feel like drinking?? I find myself so weird sometimes.

Quick lunch it was. We headed to The Pavilion next. It is a damn big shopping mall! Got all my favourite boutiques there ^^ They were having some BMW show there......

 
  
 


Beautiful, no!?!!!? BMW 325i Convertible!! Damn pretty omg I want it in red pretty plzzzzzzz.

 
  
  
 I forgot the flavour. :/
Had Baskin Robbins! I love BR (L) I wish BR, A&W & Krispy Kreme would come back to SG :( A&W used to be in SG but then I don't know what happened, it closed down. I want their curly fries & root beer float! Baskin Robbins is the best damn ice-cream next to Ben & Jerry's. Never tried Krispy Kreme but I heard that it is awesome. Really wanna try though..
 
  
  
 

Ain't it pretty? This is the end of my day 1 in KL. Bought a lot there! At the end of this post, I'll show you what I bought from the trip ok! Went back to the hotel & we bought supper. Yummy KFC wedges was rad. Their wedges tastes so good!! It's a MUST TRY when you're there, teehee!

Day 2

Woke up super early for breakfast at the restaurant. Just put on a pair of leggings with a random top from the luggage and off I went. The breakfast sucks. I only had tea, toast, orange juice & sausages. Yum tum tum I want mcmuffin now! After breakfast, I went back into the room to get ready for another long day ahead. Genting!!

Dad's friend came t pick us with his two cabbie friends. We needed three cabs for 13 people. Off we went to Genting!! It wasn't as cold as I thought it'd be. I didn't bring an outerwear 'cos when I asked mom if shorts are ok she said yes so yeh, just casual cooling wear, no need wear so nice. So there. But thank God, as it is the humid period, it isn't that cold up in the highlands.

First stop, THE OUTDOOR THEME PARK!!

 
 
Taken while waiting for Dad t get tickets :)


 
 
 
 
 
 
Don't ask me what I was doing..I really don't know
  
Aunt Shirley was so happy but Jenae was damn scared

Had very late lunch at Pizza Hut only at around 3pm. Met the rest later & they had Marrybrown. After that we walked around the place. Mom got two pairs of shoes & we left, back to KL. The ride home was interesting. Accident, village kiddos without shoes, durian trees, big shopping malls, high class hotels. Went back to the hotel first to rest. Headed to Pavilion again 'cos Che bought this Mango top at only S$10 so I pestered mama t go with me. Dad, mom, myself, sis & maid went together. Had dinner at FoodRepublic. The FoodRepublic there is super hugeeeeeee! A lot of different cuisine. I had phad thai noodles (see how much I love Thai food!), sissy had kimchi noodles, maid had sheng mee, mom & dad shared a plate of fried oyster. Bought a lot of Mango omg yay!!!!!! Cheap thrills uh huh headed back to the hotel & they bought supper. It's like a party every night at Gran's room!


Day 3
Suria KLCC + Mid Valley, the two big shopping centers we went. Bought a lot there. Nose, their shoe boutique (something like Charles & Keith), got bandage heels & sandals. Fucking pretty but don't have my size. DAMMIT! Mom bought a pair of mustard heels thee. Damn nice :( Had A&W there too!! Omg curly fries & root beer float~~ Dad bought a shirt from GAP. He kept asking me t buy the pair of boxers but he was rushing me so I said forget it. It's only S$15 :( and they got the navy blue polka dot & red hearts printed one!! I will go get the it at the local GAP boutique, really hope they still have it & in my size! Factory Outlet Store at Mid Valley was huuuuuge! Bought accessories & a few sleeping shorts there. Went bra shopping 'cos it is on sale & it's only S$4.20 each. NO JOKE!! Damn shiok I tell you I grabbed my size & made payment hahaha then we had dinner at Madam Kwan's Nonya Restaurant.

 
When I was in primary school, I kept praying to God that I want her to be my mom.

 
Fish & Chip
  
Chicken Chop which looks more like breaded chicken
  
Nasi Lemak

Took a cab back to the hotel & we went to walk around Sungei Wang & BB Plaza. Bought a little something for the girls, bff & my lovely girlfriend :D Took quite some time for us t get out of that place. Too many exits!! Next, we went to Haagen Dazs for ice-cream. Cappuccino Truffle & Raspberry <3 the last supper we had there was perfect. Frog-leg porridge, kway tiao, Thai fried beancurd in sweet chilli sauce & KFC. The porridge was deliciousssss!


Aunt Shirley: (to maid) Edna, come, come & eat the porridgeMe: (in dialect) She don't eat frog-leg leh
Mum: Really meh? How come I don't know
Maid: Yeh ok ok (taks a bowl of porridge, with a spoon taking the gravy & all)
Maid: What is this ah mam?
Mum: Frog-leg
Maid: (stop scooping & stones for 5 seconds)
Aunt Shirley: (burst into laughter)


IT WAS DAMN FUNNY. Just imagine us all in pjs & two small tables, everyone sitting together, some on the bed, some on the chairs. Her stoned reaction was damn funny & unexpected!



Day 4
It was father's day but didn't felt like it. Home. I was so damn excited. Not excited about the budget flight back but the feeling of being home, in Singapore again. The good food that awaits me :D Teehee. Once we got home, I unpacked my stuff &we went out for early dinner. Even Laura thinks that it was too early, she replied me on Twitter, "4pm for dinner?" Hahaha so! We went Changi Village for dinner. Dad suggested it. We let him because it was Father's day :)

 
Wonton meeeeee

 
Fried carrot cake, shiok only!

And I started sneezing during dinner. Sucks to be me! Damn sick right now. Fever, flu, cough, sore throat. Alicia scared me saying it might be H1N1!!! :( omg I was damn scared, I kept taking my temperature to make sure it's just me feeling feverish but it's not fever.

Today bb accompanied me to the doctor's & I'm feeling a lot better after drinking a lot of water & taking the medicine. Imma go rest after this post. But before I publish, I must show you what I bought this whole trip!!
