Why do professors like to torment people like me who don’t have enough sleep? Why is it that it pleases them to upload notes and such an ungodly hour and then expect us to be up so early to print them? I am so zombie-fied now. ZZzzzzzzz
CNY Shopping January 24, 2009
The title says it all! This post is everything about the CNY shopping I have been doing. Both for groceries as well as my CNY clothings.
Over the past 2 weeks I have been shopping for CNY clothes and sadly to say, not many clothes actually caught my eye. I found a couple of clothes that I love but the prices were way over what I had in mind and the most bummer of all, was that the item I tried on was the last piece and a defective last piece for that matter, with the sems bursting and the item being dirty and all. Super bummer… The worse part of the shopping was actually to stand around and trying to help Brenda find clothes to suit her rebellious and teenage personality. I am proud to say that I managed to and even after all the quarrels and arguements from her, the final purchases were satisfying. However, I must say that she somehow just likes to buy the same outfits as me. =X
Anyways, after the 2 weeks of shopping with my family, I ended up with a red floral shirt from Fashion. Lab. and a Pink dress from Isetan. Yup it’s very little considering that I spent 2 weeks shopping. But well, this is how critical my taste is. However, I did managed to get a pair of Jeans from This Fashion at less than $20 and the quality’s quite good. (My GUESS jeans that my dad bought for me for Christmas ended up in Brenda’s wardrobe cause the jeans look better on her than they did on me – another bummer.) I also managed to get a pair of leggings (my old one had a hole in it) and Swarovski flatback crystals. =)
The crystals were used to transform my DMK sandals into a super bling sandals! =) I just completed them and I love the effects of the crystals. The photo below don’t really do justice to the actual thing.. (No pic to compare to since I was too engrossed in trying to glue to crystals..)
Anyways, accessories and all other sorts, I will making them myself so saved money on buying them… =D It sure feels good to be handy in such sorts…
Today, I went with my parents to do the last minute CNY grocery shopping @ NTUC as well as pick up the roasted duck that we ordered from my 3rd Uncle. =) Got CHAR SIEW TOO! So happy.. :back to post: Everywhere was super crowded, everyone seemed to be stocking up! I seen people with 2 trolleys full of stuff at the cashier counter, whereas my family only had half a trolley full. And here I thought people would be buying less due to the Recession.
Almost all the spring cleaning is done, the dogs bathed, the house vacuumed, bathtub scrubed and clean, I am UP AND READY for the new year!! COME TO MAMA!!
I never felt so excited about CNY before, I wonder why… =) But but but!! I have a good feeling this year… Everything will be alright in time to come… XD
My Black & White collection January 19, 2009
I have created a black and white collection with only 2 items so far. Haven’t calculated the cost yet since my account log is kinda all over the place. So most prob I will upload the prices with the items onto my shop sometime after the CNY holidays. But I think the minimum price would be about $12+ for the earrings and $15++ for the necklace. If interested and can’t seem to wait, leave a comment behind? Together with your email as well as the price quote. =)
Anyways here are the items.. No names are out for them yet too.. Just codes : earring (09STE01) and Necklace (09STN01).. By the way the necklace is rather long, about 80-90cm (hangs past the bust area)
09STN01
Black clay rose, white clay rose, Bronze chains, rhodium plated chains, Hand-wired Butterfly, Black with Gold beads.
09STE01
Swarovski Crystals: Star (jet black), Moon (crystal AB), Bicones (indian Blue&Sapphire), Rhodium plated charms
Superb! January 18, 2009
Really superb! I was again late in add and drop deadline, so now I am stuck with “What is Cinema” as my AHSS elective.. And guess what?! The prof has decided to release the assignment. It is based on a quote by Jean-Luc Godard. “The Cinema is Truth 24 frames per second”
I am to write as essay based on this and giving a reference to a film. I am so dead.. I have no creativity when it comes to writing and I have no idea what his quote means. However on the brighter side of life, I have approximately 3weeks to think through after eliminating the weeks for CNY holidays. So yup! Less than a month to come up with an answer to this quote. I so need to buck up from tomorrow onwards.
GAWD~!

It’s the only comfort I have for this crazy semester. Haix.. Nothing seems to be going well for me. Not even my relaxation time.. Feeling so down that I cancelled tuition. Haix…
It’s Official! January 12, 2009
I HATE MONDAYS!! ARGHS! WHO IN THE RIGHT MIND WOULD HAVE CONTINUAL LECTURES FOR THE WHOLE DAY?! FROM 8.30AM TO 7.30 PM AND ONLY A ONE HOUR BREAK IN BETWEEN?! ARGHS!!
I AM SERIOUSLY DYING FROM OVER LOAD OF INFORMATION OF 3 STUPID MAJOR CORES THAT ARE SO INTENSE AND SO INFORMATIVE THAT MY BRAIN NOW FEELS FRIED! NOT ONLY THAT I STILL HAVE TO ENDURE THE DAY ALL THE WAY TILL 7.30PM JUST FOR AN ELECTIVE THAT I THINK I WILL FLUNK! HOW AM I GOING TO PULL UP MY GPA AT THIS RATE WHEN I AM SUPER PISSED AT EVERY START OF THE WEEK?! PLUS PLUS HOW CAN I SURVIVE THROUGH LECTURES WHEN I AM SO SNOOZING IN CLASS CAUSE THE LECTURER IS BEING SUPER MONOTONOUS?!
SOMEONE SAVE ME!!! GAWD! I HATE SCHOOL.. ESPECIALLY ON MONDAY! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
“Amazing” parents January 12, 2009
I have the most amazing parents in the entire world! Why?! Cause they can relate to us teenagers by…….
ACTING LIKE ONE! Dammit! Because my Uncle-in-law passed away and my mum is spending more time with her grieving sister aka my aunt.. My dad is being a pain in the XXX.. Really! I mean it is not wrong to spend time with someone who is alone but to my dad… haix.. I have nothing to say.. But also my mum really is too much to take the words he say literally. Can’t she see that he is being difficult? And can’t he see that my aunt is really grieving?
Manx! Talking about Brenda being mischievious is already enough. NOW I have to take care of 2 more?! I am going to breakdown very soon. But I am now trying to keep it cool though my whole body is trembling from the lack of food and the overwork that I have been doing trying to spring clean my super duper dirty and spider-infested room.
I am going to be a zombie tomorrow.. and I wonder how I can stay alive through breakfast. Haix…

First day back January 5, 2009
First day of school was awful! Lol.. I listened in class and all the lectures but I just cannot understand anything at all..the profs seem to be speaking alien and one of them was literally speaking that language. Good gosh..
I took an elective “What is Cinema” and it the last lecture of the day.. Thankfully.. But but, the lecturer turned out to be someone I never expected.. The way he was teaching the class was like he was talking nonsense that somehow made sense.. He also said “fucking” twice during the first 15mins! Whoa! Totally not what I expected.. But it is somehow an interesting class to wind down.. yet again, I am worried cause I am not sure if this elective would help me to pull my GPA up.. Oh well..
Luckily there are 2 weeks of add and drop period, so I can at least decide by next week whether I want this elective or not.. I could still take it and S/U the module..
Decisions decisions!
Anyways, I feel awful of being broke.. I just took like $150 straight from my dad for my textbooks which I intend to purchase tomorrow.. I hope I can find another way to actually purchase the textbooks at a cheaper cost.. Haix..
I hate the expenditure at University.. Later sometime in February or earlier, the bill for school fees will arrive..
Everything is so bluddy expensive! I wish the government would help a little by bringing down the cost of transport and all those price hikes.. after all from the beginning the govt increased the price of transport in relation to the fuel price hike, and now the price has dropped they say seem to imply that transport has nothing to do with fuel.. Oh well, am just ranting nonsense.. though I wish that everything would not be so expensive… 
Almost lost… January 4, 2009
The past few days, I had loads of hope, but this morning when I woke up, I almost lost it again.. Told myself to be strong and fight against the wave of emotions that threaten to unleash and prevent myself from doing something I almost regretted.. I fought back, giving my all to try and save what is falling into the darkness…
I almost did it till I realised that I was wrong to have too much faith cause I almost lost faith.. But I fought again, I don’t believe that there is a thing called failure, don’t believe that there is no way that things cannot be saved.. Just as I almost lost hope, reason, and faith, I found a ray of brightness shining through that thick thick layer of gloomy clouds. As long that ray of brightness remains or become stronger, I will still hold on no matter what.. Just 3 words is enough..
You can do it, and no matter how tough the journey is for you, I will hold on and be there.. Almost lost does not mean that everything is over.. you have not lost everything, you only almost lost…… It still can be saved, still can be amended… just as long you never give up hope, faith and love...
Believe in yourself and you can cause you can..
Tomorrow January 2, 2009
I will be going to the hairdresser to cut or style or straighten or perm my hair! I need to get rid of those split ends and at the same time start school with a new look.
I’ve seen my timetable for the coming semester and I must say that it is going to be one hell of a semester. But it’s okay, I will persevere and do well for this semester. I heard from my course mate, that the textbooks for this semester would be very expensive.. I think he said something like the text for the immunology or is it virology costs already about $70++.. Manx.. plus this time I intend to give my tuition for only one day per week. How to make back?! Plus plus my bank only have $100++ this time I am super duper dead.. Heng tomorrow’s haircut will be sponsored by my mum.. if I can wake up early..
I am dead for this semester.. LOL!!
Day 2 – 2009 January 2, 2009
Waitin for the results of the electives allocation to be out, in the end got conned by the school. No results were released and instead I waited for hours for nothing.
Cody’s in my room now, a welcome distraction to the empty lonely room.. But she is chewing her spoilt rubber ball and shredding it into bits and swallowing the bits. In fact, today her shit had those rubber pieces. Double ewww…
Anyways, it is taking a lot of will power to not make the first move, and I got through day 1 by stuffing my phone in my wardrobe till night. Now its out, my hands are itchy again.. Worse is being online right now makes me even more itchy.. haix.. I miss his voice.. But well…
Tomorrow is another cleaning day off old books and stuff.. think I will procastinate again. Lol..
