"I" for independent. 


I was away over the weekend at a 'chalet' in Novena. Not many people knew about my 'retreat' simply because there weren't that much space to hold a party at the 'chalet'.

My Bestest and his ngoh-hiang-soh came and noticed the sign above my head and were toking about what "I" stands for. Ingenious Bestest came up with 'irritating' without even having any 2nd thoughts about hurting his friend who was having her 'retreat'. TAMADE.



I was put in isolation for 2days for having too many guests in the 'chalet'. hur hur.. and hey, it's not a bad deal afterall, since I got my own room with air-con and own bath. AND a view like this:


So as you can see, the view is quite magnificent and all day I just laid in bed admiring the nice scenary. hur hur.

So anyway, I'm fine already. The staff at the 'chalet' decided that I was too much they could handle and decided to send me home. I still get to retreat for another 3 days, if I want to. HUR HUR HURRR..




oh well, thanks to those guests who gracefully accepted my invitation to spend some time at Novena chalet after work, after school blah blah blah. It was good entertainment nonetheless.

AND ANYWAY, to the person whom I always ignore after YOU asking a certain question, it was DELIBERATE. The least you could do is to ask me HOW I FUCKING AM, before asking me to run a errand so that you can please the person you like. *ok, that's not really your intention, I may be reading too much into this* But you see, you don't start a conversation saying "hey have you done this?" TAMADE. *like I said, that might not be you 'conscious' intention, but you've done too many similar shit like that*.

False alarm.. 

I spent 5 hours in TTSH's A&E because my fever did not subside after 5 freaking days. So it'son and off and on and off.

The GP I went to this morning got worried and decided that I should go to the hospital straight away. Which I did and had to wait for 5 hours.

So obviously, the blood test result was fine. *no dengue fever which they suspected of*, just that cos' my white blood count is DAMN low so I am very prone to infections and stuffs..* tell me something I don't know*

So here I am back in my room trying to read my readings and hoping that I will recover soon enough.

I was so paranoid I actually packed some readings in the event I need to be admitted. hur hurrr.. So anyway, if I ever were to be in the hospital, don't buy my flowers ok?? fruits, ok lah... things like banana and peach.. get me some magazines. I read Cleo, Time, Newsweek, 8 days.. hur hur.

Oh well, what 5 hours it was.. COMPLETE WASTE OF MY PRECIOUS YOUTH. Nabeh..

Commuting blues 

Disclaimer *not like anyone cares but oh well*: I have absolutely NOTHING against senior people looking for a job or working whatsoever.

ee, I hate driving. *even when I am constantly pestering dropping hints to my momma to get me a car* I detest driving. I detest the fact that I am reponsible to look after myself, and some times, other people in the car, and as if that is not enough, I had to be responsible for the piece of metal that will cost much more that peanuts *local joke*, maybe a cashewnut or something. And on top of that, I have to watch out for other cashewnuts, almonds, macademia nuts, kacang putehs on the road. NO, that is wayyyyy out of my league.

On the other hand, public transport CAN be much better. You get on the bus, find a seat, concuss and drool. Or flag down a cab *my recent favourite activity* and hope that the driver is a sane person who won't start his Bible study class on board. So basically, if thepublic transport comes ON TIME, under normal circumstances, I am pretty satisfied.

BUT, you see, there is always some kind of contingency. You get weird smelling Peeple, NOISY children, NOISIER teenagers, Sauna-like buses, blah blah blah.. You get the idea. And then for some weird reasons, the window seats on the bus are attached with nails or something, people REFUSE to sit there, like this:

see these 2 aunties, they purposely shifted out just before I boarded the bus. TAMADE.

So anyway, pricky seats aside, we get noisy kids. Sometimes smelly school kids who terrorize the whole bus/train with their stench and noise. And today I discovered a new addition to this group of... pest distinctive commuters. THE AH PEK TRANSIT SECURITY, aka AH PEK MAH TAH * this is where my disclaimer comes in*.

Someone was commenting maybe these mah tahs can arrest those noisy kids on the train, he is SO wrong. They too can contribute to the noise lo.. See,I was on my way home from CCK taking the LRT home. Enjoying the uncrowded-peaceful ride home, den suddenly this Ah Pek in uniform started raising his voice at this 2 primary school girls telling them not to lean against the door. PLEASE LAH, it's a national habit to lean against anywhere lo.. So anyway, it did not end there. The girls alighted and another teenage girl, prolly in Poly came in and she leaned against the door. Then that AH PEK start to raise his voice at the girl again telling her not to lean against the door. Then he went on and on about the STICKER/notice telling people not to lean, and nagging about the size of it and saying how youngsters should not misbehave.

NABEH.. this is not a case about misbehaving caan. PLEASE lo, why must you always target on youngsters, everyone does that lo... And he was FUCKING rude to raise his voice at those people as if they are his dogs or something. GO FUCK YOURSELF STUPID AH PEK. I suspect in the case of an emergency you will prolly be the first to die cos you are too old to run. TAMADE. I mean, I agree he's got a point about not leaning against the door, cos it's dangerous, later the door open then the girls drop down how? But please lo, they are not your FUCKING dogs lo, you don't have to bark at them, and disturb the peace and tranquilty of a nice, clean, uncrowded LRT. And even the LRT staffs were not rude.. *which reminds me, the LRT people are really nice and polite*. Anyway the whole situation was like this:



That was the distant between him and those people he yelled at. Can't he just walk over and tell them nicely that it is very dangerous to lean against the door? I'm sure they will listen isn't it? Instead of blabbering about the size of the sticker, how people don't read, how youngster are so rebellious ALOUD FOR THE WHOLE TRAIN TO HEAR.

FUCK OFF MAN.



OK, so I've got bad history with disgruntled ah peks or ah mas who woke up on the wrong side of the bed and take it out on innocent people like us.. There was this once, this stupid 184 bus driver even hurled vulgarities at me and my friend simply because we didn't board the CROWDED bus in front of his and he had to let us board his EMPTY bus. I was 14 and too young *prolly too scared* to do anything. And then since then, I learnt the importance of standing up for myself. OEY, TRANISLAND BUS, please do something about your staff's attitude caan. It's almost a decade since that incident happened, I sincerely hope things changed and the stupid driver was sacked for always driving an empty bus. So now, I tend to be very bitchy with service people with an attitude, my parents didn't bring me to this world to let you show attitude.

OK, I've spent an unconstructive afternoon ranting about this worthless AHPEK. TA MA DE.

On nicer stuffs, I bought myself a nice Capri from OP today. BUT it's pink cos there weren't really many choices. NABEH.

Nabeh.. 

Sick again.

This is the 3rd time this week.

It rained today for the whole fucking day. And I was in school the whole fucking day.

Which means I didn't get to sleep the whole fucking raining day.

I had 2 Panadol Cold Relief before going to school today cos' it says "Non-Drowsy".

They forgot to print the word "NOT".

And I am burning and feeling cold at the same time now. TA MA DE

need to report this to Dr. Law about this tomorrow at TTSH at 8.50AM. *TA MA DE*

He will probably ask me not to swim the the sun ever again.

I met Jingrong in school today again. I think he is stalking me. HUR HUR

I can't type in paragraphs cos I can't focus on anything after the 1st sentence.

I think my senior is not going to win the Superstar thing.

I am going to sleep.

School SUX

School SUX 

Like you don't know already..

It's barely a week and I took cabs for 3 times.. TA MA DE

Readings are piling up, I've got to read 1/2 a book by 9 tomorrow.. I am at page 5 now.

I am sick and I just want to sleep.

I HATE YOU TCS, as in Garry TCS.

Tomorrow is the last day I need to be in school this week.

My leg is aching.

I waited for 2 hours to do my blood test at TTSH today. The blood test took only 5 minutes.

Even the nurse feels sorry for me.

I had vegetarian food today.

I met Jingrong on my way to school today.

I sucked big time as a lead discussant today *and I don't really care*.

I need a new phone. And a Crumpler.

TA MA DE, it's going to be september soon.

I am addicted to expressions like Ta Ma De and Kanina. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME??

Can it get anymore crowded in school and on the train??!!

I think the man who planted the phoney bomb-bag on the train should be shot.

They are having Ma-Tahs on the trains.

People are asking if they can fire suspicious-looking civilians.

I don't think they should.

President Nathan won. But it's uncontested anyway.

You mean the whole entire population here, no one else is eligible?

So if he don't want to continue, does that mean we will have not President?

Did I mention school sux?

Times like this.. 

Every song reminds my of exes and unrequited love.

And I know I just need a good cry, and start packing up my troubles into the old kit bag * I can still vividly remember how I used to love singing this song during my primary school days ~pack up your troubles in your old kit bag and smile, smile, smile~~ oh, I am going to lament about my lost youth again..

It's the time that stress level is mounting again.. Not so much about the amount of school work but some other stuffs *or rather stuff* that never fails to bother me.. And no, it's not about Him or whosoever.. URGH. But times like this, I get depressed over every song I hear and get all teary over the most irrelevant stuffs like Him or whosoever.. And I am feeling feverish and jaded and sick and lost and hopeless and DAMN pathetic. And I don't think any Crumpler will lift my spirit at this moment. And I start to blame my parents secretly for this .Then I start to think about SLE, and then my morale gets pushed to a lower level. *No, I don't blame my parents for that, I never did and never will*.

It's times like this when I am in my room typing this, that I am glad I am not in Dr Kwek's room, letting him watch me so vulnerable. In fact, it's time like this I am glad I am alone listening to a CD I bought months ago but have yet to listen. It's times like this that I have the urge to dig out my Annie Lennox CD and play it 89234537254 times so that I can eternally feel sorry for myself.

And as if The Almighty One is watching and can't stand the sight of pathetic me, my tummy began to feel queasy*again* and I had to dispose the shitload*literally* of disturbing stuffs. And when I am back, I don't feel 1/2 as bad. I took out the CD that I bought months ago and inserted the upbeat Aimee Mann CD.

OH WELL, I am back off to my readings.

Though I let you steer
You,
a cavalierInch became a lightyear
It was pathetic
Well you can write the play
At every word I say
But I don't have to stay
To see the credits
'Cause it's all over now
Yes it's all over now
And I'm free
I was one of few
Who'd stick up for you
And so you never knew
You were a punch line
I could not convince
Or trust you
To pick up on my hints
Must you
Leave your fingerprints
On everything I call mine
Well that's all over now
Yes it's all over now
And I'm freeYes I'm free
From your interference
Which had the appearance
Of making it clear that
It's got nothing to do with meI
t's got nothing to do with me
It's got nothing to do with me
It's got nothing to do with me
And I warn you now
The velocity I'm gathering

--Aimee Mann

The thing about staying at home.. 

You get to sit around the TV eating durian and peach with your family..

You get stressed up by the chores you need to do at home..

You have to take a cab twice in three days to get to school on time, but for some mysterious reason, you still end up late..

Your ATM is sleeping next door..

OK there's pros and cons, I know.. But I think I am missing 724 more and more.. and I can't help to stretch my neck so that I can see 724 whenever I am driven pass KFH.. And it seems, it's still un-occupied..

School's been OK.. I've settled for 4 modules and hopefully I can do GOOD-ENOUGH so that I will not go through the ultra-stressed-up-face-turn-green cycle next semester..

I've been very bothered by the fact that I have yet to get my Crumpler.. and I was quite bent on getting it this weekend before the workload crashes me into flying debris. I am currently using a rather comfy haversack.. with a 'POOH' logo smacked right in the middle..*no wonder I am so dying to get my crumpler* Oh well, I shall find a nicer, old, bag from my box this weekend and bear with the fact that I don't own a Crumpler..YET.

Saved a great deal today by asking Dza if she've got the Cyberspace Law book for sale, turns out, her friend sold it to me for $25, which is 1/2 the original price.YAYEEE. I shall invest this money on my new Crumpler. hur hur hurrrr.

You know sometimes when people don't reply sms-es, do you start to wonder if you had actually sent it? It happens to me all the time and I had to check my 'outbox' to make sure the message had been sent and I am just not getting any reply.

*better remind myself to return the library books* Did I mention that the book 'Time traveller's wife' is pretty good. I finished it in about 2 or 3 days.. Very intense love story and I couldn't put the book down before finding out what happens in the end... Well, perhaps I will get it for myself when I am in town.. hur hur..

There's a blardee mosquitoe bite on the side of my right foot. For the love of God, can they aim properly and bite me somewhere else that is more convenient for my to scratch such as the top of my foot?? Damn uncomfortable itch on the side of my foot lo... haiyos.

OK, I want to watch project superstar to find out if my senior is being booted. hur hur hurr... *Jas, ready to boot the show? whahaha*

In 12 hours 

I would be on the bus/train, returning from my first class this semester..

Which sucks cos' there is countless uncertainties and I thought I found the easy way out. Turns out, I missed it actually.

Things are not happening the way I want. What happened to my glorious 3 month break? FUCK.

I am sick. I really am. FUCK.

National Day's coming. No, I still don't enjoy it like Coins or Lifeng.

School's starting tomorrow. This is really my final year. FUCK.

If you have to wait 10mins for a double cheeseburger.. 

Ridiculous isn't it? And I was starving and I thought I would faint.. I mean shouldn't fast food be FAST? like you order and you get the food and not have to wait? I mean, I am not being unreasonable, but look, I had to wait 5 mins to order my double cheeseburger and another 5 to get my burger.. If I had known, I would've gotten myself a packet of chicken rice which would definitely be faster.

On the other hand...

It's very disturbing not to be able to detach myself from the books I read. As I mentioned last entry, I am currently reading The Time Traveller's Wife, I woke up asking myself what date it was, thinking I have the same ability.

Hair nice nice~ 

Just got back from a haircut. I NO LONGER SPOT THE F4-DRAGALIKE-HAIR, which in my opinion, looks like this:


EWWWWWW

Yep, so I couldn'y stand it anymore, I went for a trim.

According to Yiling, the nicest hairstyle for convo is a little curl at the tip of the hair cos it goes well with the cardboard on the head. *shall keep that in mind* hur hur...

Met up with the TS gurlies last night. No matter what, we never fail to be the noisest customers. *hais* But it was fun, so we are meeting up in school on Wednesday again since Fangjing and Lifeng had to come back to settle some admin stuffs.

School is starting soon. That's it?? That's my end of three months? GAWD...


On the other hand, I just finished Sue Townsend's Number Ten. I don't know why, but I always seem to enjoy Brit humour. I particularly enjoy Sue Townsend's satirical writings of the Royal family and the Politicians.. Anyway, though I did not get some of those contextual jokes, overall, I think it's a pretty entertaining book. hur hur. Starting on a new journey called The Time Traveller's wife. A rather thick and heavy book. Not sure if I will be able to handle the complexity of it all, but still, I'm looking forward.

Lately, I've been very bothered by Crumpler bags, or the lack of it. Ever since seeing it on MTV channel when I was like 15, I've always wanted it.. AND I MUST BLARDY GET MY HANDS ON IT SOON!!!Yes, I really want my crumpler bag.. I shall hunt for it next month. DAMNIT. While blogging, another conversation was taking place between 2 nice people...
...<> : ... says:
u want? i buy den send it 2 u loh
I want my crumpler!! says:
no need. very big item, too expensive to send over liao.PLUS, I don't trust ur taste. whahahahahah
I want my crumpler!! says:

...<> : ... says:

...<> : ... says:

I want my crumpler!! says:
huh? u send wat?
...<> : ... says:

I want my crumpler!! says:
heh? WAHKAOS, u r becoming smarter leh~~!!!
...<> : ... says:
..thanks


I mean, I didn't mention BLATANTLY what I wanted him to help me buy lo.. Actually what amazed mewas the fact that him, being the blur-cock-bochup-fashion-criminal him actually knows Crumpler is the brand for bags..

And my friend went on to say this:

...<> : ... says:
u go online and see the designs...den i see whether i can get.


*sniff sniff*

Of cos' I got to pay for that but.. don't you think it's very nice??? *sniiiffffs*

So anyway, Crumpler-hunting it is for me.. If not, I have my nice friend to buy it and ship it over for me.. *I'm such a lucky swine~~*

Yesterday I was telling Kimmie, when I am not constipating, I am having diarrhea. Which is very bad cos' when ur butt hurts and your have diarrhea, life can be very miserable.. TAMADE...

It takes 4 days... 

For Breadtalk to raise the price of the Banana Danish by S$0.10. I was having my tuition marathon last Saturday and had to grab my lunch at Breadtalk. Since I had constipation that day, I wanted something, fruity. So there was my favourite Blueberry Danish and new one, Banana. Since I am such a sucker for Blurberry Danish, I went for the all-time favourite. And today, in the midst of yet another tuition marathon and grabbing dinner, I noticed that the price of Banana Danish had got up by *gasp* S$0.10!! It's freaking S$1.40 for a piece of ang-moh kueh with Banana on top. And the Banana is not even the Del-Monte-type. So I settled for a piece of the Curry Chicken Naan, going for S$1 in conjunction with the NDP. hur hur. Not bad, not bad at all..

Enough of Bread-talk. One of my students was throwing tantrums in class today. And I got fucking pissed. Look, if you've got a problem, you fucking voice it, I won't be able to solve it with your fucking attitude. Of cos' I left out the F-words when I spoke to her. I particularly hate it when people are not mature enough to speak their minds. Look, I M NOT A BLARDEE PSYCHIC to guess what the fuck is going throught your head and look again, I am not interested to find out unless you fucking tell me straight. So anyway, I told her off rather harshly, but that did not appease my anger.. *grrrr* Of cos' in some situations, I would just take my discontentment in stride, and leave that for a better time with better words. OK, I can't assume everyone is brought up that way. FINE.

Singapore came up with a new law for smoking in public, which is good cos' it's reAlly annoying when people are smoking around the 'non-smoking' me. Just like when I was walking from the bus stop to BP Plaza this evening, I was following a trail of second-hand smoke from 2 men in front of me. *coughs coughs* But it's quite un-natural isn't it? to have only 20% of the outdoor space designated for smokers.. and a ridiculous 10% for nightspots. hur hur..

Online bidding haven't been very successful. I hope tomorrow will be a better day. *groans*

My declaration of Love
I need to know how to feel without you.. I need to find myself, to give you the space you need, to move in a different direction from yours.. I want to know how life can go on without you.. I want to embrace joy, indulge in love, to enjoy every drop of sunshine that falls on me.. I will conquer my fear of living in a world without you.. I will live my life as though I had never met you...
