And oft, my jealousy shapes faults that are not. ~William Shakespeare

This quote exactly sums up why I want to rid this stupid jealous malaise in me. I'm really quite weak at articulating my own thoughts and feelings, so I'm thankful for all the help I can get from google and these writers.

Jealousy.
I begin to see flaws in myself.
The self-doubt feeds.
I give up things I enjoy because I don't think I'm good enough.

On the other hand,
I regard the 'somebody' (who probably doesn't even know I'm jealous or envious in the first place) to have the ill-est intentions directed at myself, and have the lowest character ever.

In any case, these feelings are just unhealthy. I want to get out of it.
I have been feeling jealous/envious (or whatever that angry feeling is) for the past year towards this 'someone'. as much as i admire the person, I just can't help feeling bitter about that person's achievements, and more so, the lack of regard for my potential.

So i was trolling around the internet for quotes to put this horrible emotion into perspective. I found one that wasn't just witty but provided some insight as to how I could cast that feeling aside. Thought I'd just share it:

Jealousy is simply and clearly the fear that you do not have value. Jealousy scans for evidence to prove the point - that others will be preferred and rewarded more than you. There is only one alternative - self-value. If you cannot love yourself, you will not believe that you are loved. You will always think it's a mistake or luck. Take your eyes off others and turn the scanner within. Find the seeds of your jealousy, clear the old voices and experiences. Put all the energy into building your personal and emotional security. Then you will be the one others envy, and you can remember the pain and reach out to them.
~Jennifer James


that's just what I will want to do. focus on my own projects, and quit counting the blessings of others. and on another note, stop waiting for others to value what i can bring to the table. i simply don't need anyone's approval to be awesome.

hello hello

hahah! i never know where to begin blogging because I can't even remember what I was blogging about before. Oh wait, I haven't actually been blogging anyway.

Oh well, decided to pen a post before this blog becomes stale. Nothing much's happening in my life right now. I started on an internship which I like to think of as wine. It's an acquired taste and perhaps I'd grow to enjoy and someday, even savour it. It's really quite a task to be able to be warm and welcoming, especially to kids. Being kids, they are already equipped to look so adorable and I just want to love them. But sometimes I'm not quite sure how to engage them. And that can be quite stressful since all these thoughts are running in my head. What should I say next that could be appropriate and understandable by these kids? And sometimes it is even scarier because the parents are looking on so expectantly, and I am just afraid to say something that might offend them or their child. :\ what if they cryyyyyy. :(

i hang around in the clinic in the mornings and then head to do admin stuff in the afternoon. It's cool, they have a SIPT conference coming up and I'm helping with operations-related stuff for it. HAHA. It's funny how I kinda always end up with some conference-related task. Referring to my last internship in a startup doing a conference for Singtel.

Oh, right now i'm also stressing over what to wear to work. I want to look smart yet lovable. hmmm..

okay toodles. im gonna go to bed. and hopefully when i wake up tmrw, i would be less lazy and bother to blog more. ha.

HELLO. sorry i disappeared for so long.

here is a post. about how i bought this awesome pretty LOVE bracelet from Bershka. which costed me a grand SGD16.90. I should seriously start DIY-ing my own stuff. zzzz.



easier said than done really. but really, 17 dollars for sth so flimsy is just so un-like me! (I tried flipping the photo, back forth right centre, to get the love-word right, and the photo turns out to be me upside down. lol. so i decided to just leave it as it is) My thoughts when I was buying it was that it will remind me to love love love. Suppose to work like the fad where people wore rubber bands with encouraging words embossed in them, to remind them to do/be that. haven't actually thought of the parameters of it, but i guess it's a good thing nonetheless. i had the best intentions when i bought it.

hms, but then again, the road to hell is paved with good intention. okay, i better figure out what I would mean by 'LOVING' everyday.

anyway, life's been fair. there's nothing much going on, except an awesome Halloween at Brotzeit, Suntec. It was really fun until the end of the night when I started puking my guts out because I drank and FORGOT that I ate panadol, because I have had been having some badass flu.

the 1L beer mugs, and food :D

Anyhow, i did want to do a make up look to look more dramatic.



and here's the actual look i copied off.



really sexy huh.

I didn't want to buy make up to specially do that look but yet i needed the colours to be bright, which probably couldn't be achieved with cheap make-up, so i improvised with sgd2.90 clown facepaint from holland v. The 'eye-shadow' looks a little wet (it was still wet then, and never really did dry). It was not too bad and would have looked decent in the night anyway.



so I tried the look the night before, just so that I would know if it would work or not, and whether I would get an allergic reaction to the paint, and not waste time the next evening because I had a tight schedule? well, i didn't have time anyhow.. hahahaha. good try though. Well, one thing that transpired from using the facepaint make up was that i really feel like buying the 88 eyeshadow palette from ebay. it's only USD10, and I think i can do so many pretty make-up looks with it... dreams dreams... one day i'll get it!

okay anyway, days late. gonna crash now.

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken...

spent some hours to pass the time away
plucking strings to the tunes of Train
it's been a long time since i last touched Jane
as she sat by the desk collecting dust,
i reckon my skills have turned to rust.

To be clear, Jane is the name of my loyal and very dependable classical guitar.

-------------------------------------------------------

first my home, now even my extended families are all topsy-turvey.

damn everyone, I am not mad because everyone is acting all childish and irresponsible. I am upset because no one cares for my feelings. as if the things they do wouldn't affect me at all.

-------------------------------------------------------

I am not really fashionable. Since I was lazy in my dressing, I appropriately saw myself as being decently presentable with nothing too outlandish. But recently, I think i'm traipsing dangerously close to becoming a fashion disaster.

i am currently in the midst of searching for a backpack that would be suitable for work+play. backpack for work?! sounds quite disastrous! but... my poor shoulders are paying the price for my need to look pretty while i tot around carrying an oversized, overstuffed handbag. And G has been reluctant to carry my handbags for me! :( my bags aren't even flowery or tiny looking. He shouldn't be embarrassed since i carried a decent sturdy leather handbag, albeit a red one. Right?

The concession he makes was that I hooked my arm around the handbag whilst he carried it so it looks like I'm carrying it and he's hooking his hand around my bag. :/

I thought I needed a better solution, hence I decided to start looking for an appropriate backpack.

I think it's quite funny how I evolved from backpacks (remember Deuter?) in my secondary education, to a large tote bag during my tertiary days, then to oversized handbags in university, and now I am moving back to backpacks.

Anyway, I Googled, hit a forum and here are my options:
1.) Leather backpacks
2.) Black laptop backpacks
3.) Hybrid bag (because messenger bags are suitable for work but backpacks aren't)
4.) Funky backpacks (more appropriate for campus I think)

Interestingly, if I started carrying backpacks, G could start helping me carry them because they totally look like guy-bags and so he would never be embarrassed. Talk about killing two birds with one stone.

:(

gawd im in such a fix right now,

i lost my hotmail account password. in fact, i haven't changed it in years, so i don't understand how i suddenly can't log in anymore. so anyway, i tried to fix it by sending a reset password? and kinda hoping that i did send the password to my current email. but no, it's sent to some ho*****@hotmail.com

was my account hacked?

Gefeliciteerd.

It's really so troublesome since several of my accounts are linked to this email, including my facebook and youtube!

-------------------------------------------------------------

I finally got Whatsapp after all those endless egging from Sean for the past couple of months.

I got it while i was in HK, cos ade lent me her credit card to purchase the app. Sean couldn't believe that i finally got the application either. waha.

Anyhow, it's basically a messenger service that sends and receives instant messages, audio notes and shares my location or contacts at the tap of the button. the application comes at a low low price of USD99 cents, so it's pretty worth it if you've got any data plan and any friends who owned this application as well. pretty much everyone with an iphone, apparently.

anyway, i realised why I was so hesitant to get whatsapp for ages. i was making up excuses like how i did not have a credit or debit card. And when i finally got my credit card, i said it was just too troublesome to set up my itunes account to get it.

i kinda think it's really because i'm already so lousy at replying smses, i can't imagine how much more annoyed people would get when they can contact me so easily and then i reply so sporadically.

oh well, I'll just have to see how it goes. i've become such a hermit ever since I hit university and quit MSN.

honouring Mdm Kwa Geok Choo

It's a great loss for the nation, since she was the wife, the friend, the confidante, the supporter, the mother and grandmother of the children of MM Lee.

I can't say anything more since she kept a low profile before her passing, so I did not know much about her. But I concur that she doubtlessly played a significant role in shaping our nation, by her quiet albeit enduring support for him.

MM Lee's eulogy was so beautifully written. Succinctly and exquisitely summed up how much she meant to him and to Singapore. His letter, in addition to the tribute broadcasted on Channel 5, soften my perception of him as a hard politician, who had to make unpopular decisions, to a man who was once so young, competitive and so hopelessly romantic. Even crazier was the fact that they both were so madly in love that they eloped, and were by each other's side up till today. Maybe when the going got tough and they disagreed aplenty (hard to see why not since Mdm Kwa was such an intelligent woman and probably had her own views as well), the passionate love transformed to something stronger; the knowledge that they completed each other.

ahh... still, it's so incredibly and unbelievably romantic. it's probably the best love story Singapore has ever got to share. sets my heart aflutter every time I think about it. <3<3<3
back from my holiday to Hong Kong with ade!

it has been a wonderful trip and i absolutely love how some of the people dress there. u get no such shit in singapore. there were so many sartorialist moments, but i was so busy staring that i didn't take my camera out to snap. i am completely giving in to their fashion of loose tops, baggy jeans folded at the cuffs, and high cut shoes. and they happen to like wearing fake glasses. a lot.

i ate so much there. but it was all worth the calories. as much as i missed Singapore food whilst i was in Shanghai, i had that wrenching feeling when i got back to singapore. I already miss all the dimsums and noodles there.

i had such a good time there, and i think it's mostly because of the lovely company of the beautiful yeong ladies. ade's mom was the warmest, nicest and most caring person ever. i nearly wanted to cry when she gave me a kiss on my cheeks because she was so happy. i don't think my mom ever did.

and although we didn't go to ocean park, we went to macau and it was so fun there. and i really meant the casino. gambling is vile, but i want to play the jackpot machine again.....

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i was so excited about the trip that i prepared a itinerary with the help of my HK friend, hintak. in fact, i was so excited that i could hardly sleep and thus woke up ridiculously late on the morning of the flight.

ade's dad graciously offered to give me a lift to the aiport for our 640am flight. they would reach my place at 5am. i was startled awake at 450am when ade's message came in saying that they were on their way to my place.

till now, i still cannot figure out how i missed the two alarms i set. i vaguely remember waking up at some point of the night with my hand gripping my phone underneath the pillow, but i don't remember hearing any alarm ringing.

miraculously, i managed to get my butt downstairs by 507am. lucky me, they were really nice.

Marcus came to the airport to send us off. He is honestly the rare few people who take the effort to love friends around them. I got a lot to learn.

G came to pick me up on thursday. Lucky me, i have G who cared and missed me enough to want to pick me up despite it being so late. He hung out at my house till early morning when i'm done unpacking. it was nice of him because the house honestly feels really cold and empty nowadays.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

did a small private screening of Durian Complex at GARAG3 today for the folks at e27. I received the usual confused response, which sparked quite a discussion about confusing films. It was pretty fun, and I was glad I did end up doing this screening because I half wanted to back out since I was feeling really tired.

got a headache now, will try to get more rest.

bites of joy

Photobucket

my favouritest bites from marks and spencers. so damn good.

stuff myself with love, patience and joy

had a nice peaceful afternoon today. it felt really good to just stay home, and my dad's just pottering around in the house, packing up for work that starts tomorrow again.

i guess i'm that kinda person. I don't plan anything special but I just want to be there, and be around to show I care. I guess that's like the bare minimum any person could do. Alternatively, you could just call me lazy.

Well, can't say that I didn't try. I asked my dad if he wanted to go watch fireworks with me. And he just kept quiet.

But today was nice, he realised I didn't have food at home to eat, so he brought me out to 'lunch'. Had steamed dumplings, pohpiah, and cold sugarcane. Not quite a lunch, but we were expecting to eat dinner in a few hours time anyway.

Photobucket

-------------------------------------------------------------

sometimes i find myself getting impatient with a certain individual. G discourages me from it, 'You meet people like these everywhere.'

Whilst I was sweeping the floor, (which always happens to be the only times I find myself undistracted enough to reflect about things) I realised that perhaps I was not only mad at the person because of his conceit and immaturity.

I always felt strongly enough to want to reason with him regarding his beliefs, but every time I ever did, he would just shut me off, saying he's just right. He teems with opinions he feels everyone should listen and adhere to. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, I can't deny that.

But, a true conversation or a good argument involves listening as well. It involves an exchange. If one refuses to listen, and one gave up talking, then there's no conversation. When there's no exchange, then perhaps, there will be nothing tangible at all, much less a friendship.

Maybe that's why I'm really angry. Angry at myself for being frustrated for wanting to make a conversation. I guess I never failed more miserably. I found myself more than ever, just shutting off to avoid getting angry, and then trying again. I didn't every try to move on completely. Perhaps, it's time I should really just extricate myself from this situation and not look back.

-------------------------------------------------------------

I am going HONG KONGGGG!

Photobucket

Honestly, there's all these tension and stress going on resulting in sporadic outbursts, and it's driving me crazy because I do not know when the big one will happen. I feel like if there's an opportunity to escape or move to another country, I would just take it.

Irresponsible. But I don't know how else to handle it.

invisible shoes.

sculptural feat indeed.

it's just so magnificent.

Andrei Chaves

Then again, it's gonna be so freaky because Chinese believe that ghosts have no feet? this shoes would just completely confuse.

haha shit i abandoned this blog again.

anyway, updates updates updates.

i'm done with my e27 job, i went to shanghai and seen the expo, breathed the air in china, and got my feet back to singapore, and suffered gastric flu.

next week im heading to hongkong, with ade, no less! :D

anyhow, i watched Detective Dee with G today. I believe this is the third time i am in a theatre for a mandarin movie in my entire life. The first was this local film by Jack Neo, I think i walked out after half an hour. Not that i have anything against JNeo, I just didn't like the show. The second was also with G, which was just a few days back. Legend of the Fist: Return of Chen Zhen.

Oh wait, did Sandcastle count as a mandarin film? Then maybe this is the fourth.

Anyhow, I am just gonna give my 5 cents about these films, especially for friends who may want to catch them.

Legend of the Fist: Return of Chen Zhen
This is the first Donnie Yen film I ever caught. I give it a 3 (out of 5 cents)



Action flicks are hardly ever my type of genre because I don't like violence but I'm scoring it higher because I thought that the action sequence was really awesome as per donnie-yen style. The storyline got a tiny bit ridiculous because ChenZhen suddenly donned this superhero suit, and I was suddenly reminded of those action hero flicks which kinda turned me off a little. But then the show concentrated on his budding romance with Shu Qi and his mission at hand.
I honestly caught the movie because Shu Qi is the lead actress and I always thought she's so damn sexy-pouty-cute and i absolutely adore her. But after watching this film I have a new eyecandy. DONNIE YEN: HAS A DAMN HOT BOD and he fights so damn well. hahahaha.
K, so I'm really scoring this film higher than it should be cos Shu Qi's wardrobe was sooo damn splendid and she looked like a dream in every scene, while Donnie Yen has a bod worth watching on big screen (even only for a 10 second fight scene), and the fight scenes were really good..

Detective Dee


I give this a 2cents.

Suave Andy Lau and Tony Leung: check.
Carina Lau looking so damn freakin goood even with strange dots for eyebrows: check.
this damn hot actress: check
Fight scenes. mediocre and kinda draggy
Storyline: Mainly about spontaneous human combustion. Not new, kinda boring.

okay i tired alr. bb.

goodbye sundayyy :( monday is nearly here

okayyyy, i know this post is a little lame. but i was watching Miss Universe 2010 and yes, Miss Mexico was really beautiful! and zomg, she's 22 as well?!?! wah rao, kinda makes me wish i had bigger aspirations when i was younger. NOT to be in pageants exactly, but like, i could have worked harder and excel at anything which would bring me to places and meet people soooo glamorously.

okay i digressed. i really came online to say that Miss Australia (Jesinta campbell ) bore an uncanny resemblance to miley cyrus.

miley cyrus jesinta campbell resemblance

and also to say that miley cyrus's latest album cover 'Can't be Tamed' looked incredibly similar to Britney's 'Prerogative' album cover.

miley cyrus britney spears album cover resemblance

no further comments though.

Anyhow, just being really random on a sunday night. Spent the last few weeks partying then rag, then falling sick, then party, then falling sick again, and then i begun my internship at this wonderful startup located within NUS. So I have been too busy/tired to blog. but I shall not be lazy. I will persevere because sabbiemomorox! :X okay don't box my face.

anyhow, i had a really good day today. just spending a nice breezy, albeit humid, sunday in town with G, and bought the coolest pair of sunnies. Now, I've got sth to rival's bryan's cool-peas sunnies.

Photobucket
taken when we met up for lunch at sushi tei. okay, i have been contemplating getting an aviators cos it looks so damn good on him. no $$$ since i kinda have plans for my internship blood and sweat money already. :( so many things, so little money.

anyhow, I will share pictures tmrw of my awesome sunnies if can/remember.

G bought me a new umbrella! HES SO SWEEEET! So, now i can finally return Ade hers as well!

okay! awesome possum and peace out.

Ought to have been sleeping. But having one of those bouts where I feel so tired yet I can't seem to fall asleep. So, I decided to try out this new app I just downloaded onto my iPhone 3GS. It's called BlurFx and it is by far one of the best free iPhone editing apps I used. (well duh, Ifound it as one the app store's top free photography tools, but sometimes those top downloads are liessss :P)

At the app store
Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos

Here's the before and after photo!

Edited previously on ps mobile (a Photoshop app on the iPhone, available on the android os as well) for exposure, saturation and contrast.

After BlurFx
Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos

It is superb because it was just soo easy to use with such great results. Everything was pretty intuitive and easy to locate. And best of all, you can have a few ongoing projects at the same time! So, you don't have to complete a project to start a new one! And best of all, you can choose what quality you wanna save your picture to, and I saved mine in the highest res possible :D awesome!

Masked so you can see the areas blurred off and the ones I cleaned off. The red areas are the blurred areas.
Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos

(1) Basically, I used motion blur on the entire picture (since I decided prior that I wanted a larger area of the picture to be blur). And I totally love the fact you can choose the type of blur!
(2) Then clicking on the clean button on the bottom right, I used my finger and cleaned off areas that I did not want looking fuzzy. (I could tweak the brush size tailoring to the size of area i wanted to edit, alternatively, i could set it to auto, and check progress with mask. but, I wasn't very fussy, so I just anyhow whack. Which did turn out looking okay, but you can tell immediately when the mask is on that it was done pretty messily. Mask is a v good feature ESP if you were the perfectionist sort or had a background that had a lot more details than my white toilet doors)
(3) Finally, I tweaked the saturation up, cos I was looking a little pale, and also upped the lightness a little to make use of the areas surrounding, as well as myself look more glowy.

(4) I tried templates and vignetting but the effects weren't what I really wanted from the picture since I liked it all glowy and white. But here are some screenshots anyway.

Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos

Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos

Then Clicked into the menu, and clicked on settings.

Here I could decide on the resolution I want to save my photos to! I decided on the highest res.

Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos

Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos

Finally, the plus point of this program, and most good photo apps for that matter, is that it allows you to upload your picture on the more popularly used social networking websites like facebook, twitter and flickr. You just have to login, and then upload straightaway. My only qualm is that it doesn't allow you to upload straight to photobucket!

I decided to just save it to my photo album instead. :D and saving it at highest res didn't take that long. Its probably a little faster than uploading a photo on fb using the iPhone. Possibly also because I didn't do any heavy editing.

I think this app is worth a space in your iPhone. It's simple to navigate and use, and the outcome is damn awesome.

Okay. Left 6% of batt life, shall watch kitten vids until phone dies or I fall asleep. :( 3am. This sucks.

- edited again the next morning to include more screenshots. :D i woke up with 3% batt left in the battery so i HAD to charge it. :D


Happy flu day.

So I'm down with flu! Gawd, could I be weaker than this. A few nights of late sleep and then rag, and I didn't even stay for the prize-giving event and I chui alr. Hahahha. Shit.

Anw, my house ran out of flu supplies so I bought panadol flu max from watsons. Panadol is good stuff.

Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos

So anyway, look at this! Okay, I was like thinking so hard whether to get regular panadol flu or flu max, and then I went with flu max cos it sounded more effective. And more expensive! But no, my symptoms are not completely alleviated. Damn. Should have stuck with the cheaper one. Anyway, check it out, they gave me a box of tissues with the panadol! So thoughtful! But there were barely enough tissues for me :( it's too early for me to wave goodbye to my trusty roll of toiletpaper. :/ entirely unglam, and possibly too rough on my skin, but it's almost sufficient for one flu attack.

Okay anyway, a proper post about rag 2010 tmrw maybe. I'm so damn drowsy.

Oh ya, the most important point. Arts Rag 2010 won best float design!!!! Awesome. I'm really proud to have had been a part of it, albeit really tiny. I think the makers involved were very very awesome, and the dancers energy were over the top. More on it soon. :D

been bumming around

On monday, I went to this really awesome Thai food place like really near Chom Pang camp that had cheap and good thai food. IT WAS SO DAMN AWESOME. I didn't take any pictures of it though, but SOON. SOON I WILL HAVE PHOTOS. COS I CRAVE FOR TOMYUMMM.

I said in an earlier post that Bright and Marcus moved recently right? Yup, so i went shopping with Bright for stuff to furnish his new place with on Tuesday. This is how Bright looks like now since we filmed Durian Complex. I think he caught a slight muppe-tities.

bright at ikea


Then, last night I finally met up with Yulin! we had sushi!!!! ahhhhhh. i have been eating so much jap and thai food recently. but okay, I LOVE sushi tei. so it's good. but i really suspect that the sushi tei at Paragon is so much better. Yulin bought me presents, including this really cute bear and PURPLE NAIL POLISH. and she hasn't read my blog yet (in case it's forgotten, i assigned purple as my new favourite colour). DAMN TELEPATHIC of YULIN!

The chef was super cute. He offered to take a photo for us. :D
sushi tei with yuls

sushi tei with yuls 1

sushi tei with yuls 2

sushi tei with yuls 3

Then off to meet Jo at mambo! Was supposed to meet Debbie there as well, BUT WHY DEBBIE. WHY U DONT WANT TO COMEEEEEEE :(:(:( Anw, it was still SUPER fun with Jo! and i met like loads of SMU peeps, who were like awesome and fun yet nice people.

Okay anyway, i should take note of this: WHY DID I WEAR HEELS. My feet were like killing me by the end of the night. Sure, heels completed the look. But i don't know whether the pain was worth it. And sadly, i was like taller than most of the guys because of my heels.. Heels pros and cons: possible effective guy deterrent vs disability to last till 3am. hmmmmmmm..... shall mull over it.

Jo, Kianhean and Lionel with our AK47s. It's tequila right? ergh, reminded me of tequila night with G and Kenny. tequila. ergh. :\okay, but whiskey is WORSE.
zouk with jo

Kianhean wasted some rum because he didn't know his strength. or was he drunk? HAHAHAH.
Anyway, Kianhean is this interesting guy from SMU who has like a pro-mac website/blog?. Go check it out. he posts up pretty interesting and enlightening articles on Mac-related stuff. :D
Photobucket

Aaron couldn't join us for dinner, but its OKAY since i met him at zouk with alyssa. THEY LOOK SOOOO GOOD IN THIS PHOTO. I feel almost bad for like ruining such a great couple shot. :\
Photobucket

Then at the end of the night, G came to pick me up. SO SWEEEETTT!!! OMG HES DAMN AWESOME considering how he doesn't like clubbing and he abhors sleeping late and he still offered to come!!!! We went for supper and he dropped me home.

Photobucket

All in all, it was a good three days :D PEACE! Next up.. RAG 2010. I'm helping out with mechanisms. MORE pictures coming up!

the nescafe in my bloodstream

This was supposed to be posted together with the video like on the 26th of July.

shit, i really should avoid caffeine after 2 in the afternoon. it absolutely ruins my sleep.

anyway, here is a draft trailer that G made for the Art-ifacts screening that, i guess, nobody ever saw. I kinda thought that it was pretty good, so here i am, sharing it without his permission. BUT i do not claim credit for the production of this trailer, so maybe im not infringing copyright that badly. i think. shit i really should start studying.

so now, G is gonna be angry at me for 2 accounts. sleeping so damn late as well as publishing his work without his permission :X wahahahahaha.


Anyway, UPDATED!

Alright, i meant to have put up the video then, but there were problems with the video quality (It was LAGGING), so i asked G if he could send me a better copy and all that, and then the problem cleared up (cos youtube takes sometime to process it?), so anyway, here it is. all good for consumption. and i guess, by asking him all sorts of questions about the video sorta meant i got his permission. :P



*i still don't like the noisy music part. waha.

if you see dark clouds, don't just bring your umbrella, remember to bring your floatation device

OMG THE NOOSE FINAL EPISODE TODAY. BOOOOOOOOOOOOO. :( That entire cast is so super awesome. they should get primetime slot for actual news.

Anw BACKLOG due to the huge amount of photos to sift through.

SUNDAY was super awesome awesome. Went to Marina Barrage for a picnic to celebrate Marcus's bday and Ade's and Shir's return from summer school at berkeley!

So anyway, Ade and I met up earlier to get him a bday cake from Cedeles and a huge crocodile balloon from Party R Us :D (anw sidenote, Party R Us crew at Raffles City were just sooo surly, they seemed so unhappy with us even though we were really nice, and polite and we bought stuff from them it's just so weird. it's so strange to have so much negativity in such a happy fun shop. o well, maybe's the lousy weather. zzz)

The dark sat in and then there were all sorts of crazy stuff, like piggybacking and spinning round and round until we were all seh. We acted like we were high on something la, but we didnt even have a drop of alcohol. We were all high on sushi, fruit salad and sparkling juice..

More pictures :D I was testing out the various modes on my camera. I love this picture particularly because of how it caught how serene and comfortable her whole body was despite her jumping like a crazy bunny.
