myescapepark.wordpress.com

Think positive

2009-12-19T22:01:00.002+08:00

Maybe I should just stop complaining for a while.

I mean how often do I get to be 19 and studying for a diploma in Food Science.

Bleak

2009-12-18T00:18:00.002+08:00

I am young and tired of life.

Tired of every disappointments.

Come what may

2009-12-13T01:58:00.001+08:00

Bitter heart oh bitter heart tries to keep it all inside.

No rewind.

2009-12-11T20:24:00.002+08:00

Carelessness+Didn't study properly= Term test is a sure GONER for me.

Sigh. Sometimes I wish life has a rewind button. Really, I do...

Wait

2009-11-26T23:19:00.003+08:00

In or out?
I don't know.
Correct or wrong?
I don't know.
Yes or no?
I don't know.
Maybe, Maybe not.

Up and down. Down and up.

2009-11-25T19:34:00.003+08:00

Dear God,

Thank you for the testimonies you've given me. Though I am not ready to share them yet, I promise I will one day... when I am strong enough to.

Amen.

I felt the rain.

2009-11-07T23:25:00.002+08:00

I am going to allow myself to skip all that.
Till then.

Dreaming is my forte

2009-10-28T21:23:00.003+08:00

Sometimes I wish I was somewhere else... doing nothing but just watching the world go by.

But then again, I like being busy too.

See the irony?

Endurance

2009-10-25T23:52:00.001+08:00

My patience is being put to the test AGAIN.

Weird in a good way

2009-10-18T23:13:00.003+08:00

Oh my, how time flies!! It seems like yesterday when my semester exam had just ended and I am busy packing my luggage for my two weeks of holiday in Shanghai. Then I came back, had my 19th birthday... a couple of outings with my besties and here I am... packing my Jansport backpack because...

School's starting tomorrow!
And for the first time...
I actually am feeling optimistic about school.
Haha! :D
Though I know that this might be the busiest semester ever.

Random photos

2009-10-18T22:49:00.005+08:00

A pair of young fighting fish from Lixian.
So cute! Haha :D

Successful Macarons!

The macaron shells (:

Before popping the shells in the oven.

On my 19th Birthday

2009-10-18T21:42:00.009+08:00

Marina Barrage!

The kind photo you take at the entrance of a place.

Nice view, huh. (: You can see the flyer too.

Group shot. Lixian look exceptionally tall here.

Macarons Madness!

Make a wish then Opening the "present" which is actually nothing but lots of uncooked pasta

Enjoying the macarons :D

This is even more meaningful

2009-10-15T23:21:00.002+08:00

"I believe that everything happens for a reason.
People change so that you can learn to let go,
things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right,
you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself,
and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."

THANKS WANNING! :D

The Power of Reminiscence

2009-10-15T01:50:00.002+08:00

Matters of the heart is always downright complicated and it is something I am still unable to comprehend well till today and probably never will. Well, yesterday's indulgence in reminiscence with my friends of HaiFamily taught me something valuable- which is never to trust anyone but only God almighty. Like how, I would never trust my own heart again. Because it led me to nothing but disappointment and guilt. I would pray and only pray to God about everything because I don't trust myself anymore.

Plainly meaningful

2009-10-05T23:33:00.001+08:00

Broken hearts are what give us strength and understanding and compassion.

A heart never broken is pristine and sterile and will never know the joy of being imperfect.

All over again.

2009-10-03T23:13:00.002+08:00

I am so going to watch Leon The Professional all over again later.
And maybe cry.
Haha.
Nah, just kidding.

Haha.

2009-09-30T00:04:00.002+08:00

Really hahaha... It made me laugh. I am just happy la.
I just realised that...
It was actually an old friend who msg-ed me after Yan Fang.
I didn't know cause I lost most of my contacts when my phone crashed.
I mean even my childhood bestfriend didn't wish me.
So how can I expect my primary school friends to do so right?
But apparently one of them did :D

No wonder

2009-09-29T20:02:00.002+08:00

my eyelids kept twitching on Sunday during lunch at LerkThai with HaiFamily. They couldn't stop twitching. Well, you know what they say. When your eyelids twitch, it means something bad is going to happen. And it turned out so true. When I reached home, my mum was so pissed off about the hamsters.

But thank God, the fish shop owner allowed an exchange. So I got $50 worth of fish supplies in the end for my birthday present from HaiFamily. New filter system, premium fish food, etc. Haha. My fishes are so fortunate right now! :D

Sigh.

2009-09-28T01:44:00.002+08:00

Seriously, I never thought my mum would get so worked up about it. She was like...
"I'm giving you a few days time to get rid of it! If you don't, I would do anything to get rid of it okay!" So fierce la that it kinda scares me. Its only two cute little hamsters for goodness sake. What's more, I used to keep hamsters the last time (more than ten some more!). However, I sold all of them away ever since I moved house and never kept them anymore.

Reasons I can think of why she doesn't allow:

The house is too small. On top of that, my father keeps about 4-5 birds which I know also pisses my mum off.
My results have dropped, she is worried that I am unable to cope with my workload for the next semester and she knows that the hamsters are going to take up a lot of my time.
The smell of the hamsters. (Btw, I clean the hamsters cages regularly the last time and never once asked her to help me.)
The extra expenses. Food, bedding, etc for the hamsters.
She doesn't like animals.

Really very sad... I am so SORRY HaiFamily, I cannot accept the present :( Sigh. Going to the pet shop in the evening later with Lizhen to ask for an exchange. Hopefully, the people would allow and we wouldn't lose too much money. So next time people, don't ever buy any living things(including plants) for me as gift cause it would end up like this.

P.S: Just realised something today- There is one distraction I haven't managed to overcome yet.

Though it is belated

2009-09-28T01:25:00.003+08:00

I am still grateful...

THANK YOU SO MUCH HAIFAMILY & DN1 !!! :D

Because I am happier this way.

2009-09-26T16:39:00.005+08:00

What used to matter to me in the past seemed like nothing now.
It was all just a mere illusion. I can see it now.
Realization had hit me.
Why didn't I see it earlier?

That would save me from all the guilt I am still riddled with.
Well, at least I am happier now.

I'm a year older today

2009-09-24T21:48:00.003+08:00

But still young ok. Only 19. Haha!

Anyways, a BIG THANK YOU to: (in random order)

BLING BLINGs for the trip to Marina Barrage and the many many macarons!!! Love you all deep deep <3
WANNING! for the very pretty pasta-theme birthday card!
Mummy and Daddy for the birthday cake!
Daddy for the new mobile phone :D
All those who msg-ed me, especially those who msg-ed past midnight!

On a side note, HaiFamily didn't celebrate my birthday today, so that makes me very suspicious...Hmmm... would they be celebrating for me still??

Shall post photos another day!

I am angry.

2009-09-22T00:36:00.001+08:00

Pissed with myself.

Oh God, why did things turned out so wrong??

I should have known.

2009-09-22T00:10:00.002+08:00

Guilt, frustration, anger, confusion, all rolled into one is exactly how I am feeling right now. Sorry for being so mean and direct but I got to say what I got to say. Sigh. Sometimes, I feel like I deserve to go to hell. A girl like me don't deserve to be loved.

Like huh?

2009-09-19T13:17:00.001+08:00

Quotes contradict so badly sometimes.

Leon: The Professional

2009-09-19T01:21:00.002+08:00

Watched this movie while I was Shanghai and love it to the max! Now I finally understand the meaning of one of my favourite songs of all times- Shape of my heart by Sting.

He may play the jack of diamonds

He may lay the queen of spades

He may conceal a king in his hand

While the memory of it fades

So anyways,

2009-09-19T01:05:00.002+08:00

life's good for me now (just the way I want it). No more pressure, though I still can't help but feel guilty about it. But then, such is life, what's done is done. Well, that's the way things are; you learn from your mistakes. And for me, it's all about thinking twice before I act.

What I need now is intense laughing therapy...
On top of that, I can't wait for outings with my beloved HaiFamily and Bling Bling!!!

And a little part of me wished that school would re-open soon cause I actually missed being busy. Haha! How ironic of me to think that way.

My Samsung Star

2009-09-19T00:54:00.004+08:00

Yay-ness :D Like finally, a new mobile phone!

I wanted to use my 4GB MicroSD card for this new phone to store my music and photos. But then I just realised that the card is still with the psychology teacher! ARGH! Which means I have to wait until school reopens which is like in a month's time. What if he lost it??? *Crosses fingers

What you see is not what you get.

2009-09-18T00:05:00.003+08:00

Sometimes.

It's like I've been awaken
After sleeping for three thousand years.

Away, distractions

2009-09-17T00:36:00.003+08:00

My mind's made up. And I'm more determined than ever. I really wanna change and find my "ren shen mu biao". (Life's goal)

I've shut out whatever would distract me.
Including Highway 18.

And I wondered again.

2009-09-16T23:22:00.002+08:00

Woohoo!
I made it back in one piece.
And yes, I would things right this time.

I've been thinking a lot for the pass 2 weeks and finally, YES! I've decided to put away whatever has been bugging me and probably never speak a word about it anymore. *Crosses fingers

On top of all that, I pondered about my life too.
Sadly, realised I've changed so much over the past 2 years.
And I seriously hated the changes I see in me.

Where is that girl who would always cry when she fail a test?
Where is that girl who would always study before a test or an exam?
Where is that girl who is ever so serious in her work?
Where is that girl who never dared to skip lessons?
Where is that girl who is never late for lessons?
Where is the girl who always placed studies as her top priority?
Where is the girl who once made my parents so happy in the midst of "family crisis"?
Where is the old me? I don't see it anymore.

All I see now is a girl who
Doesn't give a shit about failing or doing badly.
Skipped so many lessons that she totally lost count of it.
Have to rely on my friends on school days to wake me up.
Have to rely on my friends on sundays to wake me up for service (church).
Always LATE for school, cellgroup, outings, etc.
Always sleeping late.
Always falling asleep during lectures.
Always so forgetful.
Always dreaming/stoning.
Argh! What's happening to me?

I desperately need to change.
Difficult, yes,
But I know one thing for sure, God would always be with me.

I need more time.

2009-07-19T16:05:00.000+08:00

MAD BUSY!

My Life, Your Song

2009-07-12T23:19:00.004+08:00

MY LIFE IS YOUR SONG
TO YOU MY HEART BELONGS
LET ALL EARTHLY CROWNS
FADE IN THE SHADOW OF THE CROSS

MY LIFE IS YOUR SONG
I'LL SING FOR YOU ALONE
NOTHING IN THIS WORLD
CAN TAKE ME AWAY FROM YOU
OUR LOVE GOES ON AND ON

Teach me.

2009-07-11T17:24:00.008+08:00

I have to learn how to forget.

Because it came from you.

2009-06-29T23:11:00.001+08:00

I can't get to sleep.
I just wanna read it forever.

Dreams

2009-06-27T14:31:00.002+08:00

Oh my life is changing everyday

in every possible way

And oh my dreams

it’s never quite as it seems

Never quite as it seems

I know I felt like this before

But now I’m feeling it even more

Because it came from you

Then I open up and see

The person falling here is me

A different way to be

Running nowhere

2009-06-23T23:51:00.002+08:00

Torn between fantasy and reality.

But I still can dream, can't I?
Or is it time for me to wake up?

From the bottom of my heart.

2009-06-22T00:06:00.005+08:00

Jas,

You don't have to feel guilty about it. (I read your blog.)
I am not angry with you.
I totally understand why you did that.
Its okay, really.
I know you mean well.
Yes, so many years of friendship...
So how can I bear to get angry with you over this small matter, right?
Besides, I have hurt you in the past before.
And its one of the biggest regret in my life...
I have no right to get angry with you.
If only I could turn back time, I would definitely change all that.

In fact, I want to thank you.
Thank you for your grace.
Thank you for bringing me back to church.
And thanks to you, I got to know 2 really nice people (E&G).
I suppose you know who are they right? Haha.
Thank you for everything you have done for me.
I love you, Jas.
Thank you for being my friend.

With all my heart and soul,
Verlyn Yeo

I hate the way,
how I am taking everything for granted.

Back from Foggyland

2009-06-16T23:45:00.000+08:00

Losing my sanity.

2009-06-14T03:00:00.002+08:00

Because I smile and laugh to myself whenever...
I read Ju.S's blog or ogle at MXRF's pictures.
Well,
Obsession is a dangerous thing.

P.S: On my way to Foggyland in another 2 hours' time.

World Blood Donor Day 09 @ Jurong Birdpark

2009-06-13T23:30:00.002+08:00

Special thanks to Bling Blings (those who donated blood) for the free tickets.

Though the birdpark was WARM, HUMID and CROWDED, it was still quite a fun experience.

Citation: All photos taken from Erica's facebook photo album :D

Hmmm...

2009-06-13T00:17:00.001+08:00

I've got so many things in mind right now.
I don't know where to start.

And I am lost again.
I need directions...

A letter to you.

2009-06-09T02:06:00.003+08:00

Dear Ju.S,

I know I am late.
But still,
Happy Blessed 22nd Birthday!
Yes, you are cute.
And
I wish you all the Happiness in this World.

Forever,

2009-05-30T16:21:00.003+08:00

I've lost the kind of motivation I used to have during my secondary school days.
Ever since I stepped into poly life.
Damn.

Now I know.

2009-05-29T21:29:00.003+08:00

MXRF oh MXRF.

Hmmm...

Unworthy post

2009-05-26T23:46:00.000+08:00

Liar liar, pants on fire.

I am so disappointed in you.

Because you lied.

Argh.

2009-05-23T22:02:00.001+08:00

I've got work piled up to my head
All I want to do is jump into bed
And wash away my troubles with lemonade

Work to be done.

2009-05-22T18:48:00.004+08:00

Note to self:
To be completed and done by this weekend.

1) FI technical report
2) Update FI Logbook
3) FPQA summarising and PowerPoint slides
4) Psychology Quiz 4 &5 (online)
5) NLS group report
6) Study for FI tutorial quiz and CSAS Language test

*Pulls hair out. Damn STRESS okay.
I am in deep shit. I know I am.

P.S : I really really wanna try making macarons again leh. But, how to??

Above all

2009-05-21T23:16:00.000+08:00

Like a rose, trampled on the ground, you took the fall and thought of me above all...

My macarons failed thrice.

2009-05-17T23:40:00.001+08:00

Yes,

I attempted making french macarons. Thrice. And guess what? All three times failed!

Shoot.

Damn disappointed. And, argh. What a waste of ingredients too.

1st attempt(worst of all): I added water to the batter by mistake. Because I went to dilute the colouring and add it the mixture. Forgetting that water is not supposed to be added. The macaron shells turned out really bad. It was flat, slightly burnt, glued to the baking paper and very fragile.

2nd attempt: Macaron shells not burnt. Has slightly more volume. However, it is still very fragile and it sticks to the baking paper. I couldn't remove the shells without breaking it.

3rd attempt: Googled to find out more about macarons- making faults. And guess what? I found out that it is best to use aged egg whites. In other words, one should leave the egg whites overnight before using it. Eeew. It spells F-O-O-D P-O-I-S-O-N-I-N-G to me. So I went on to find an alternative method which is to microwave the egg whites before whisking it. Yupp, and I did just that. The result? Still almost that same! Except it is much easier to remove the macaron shells from the baking paper. Ah!! Damn frustrating!

Anyways, here are some pictures from my 3rd attempt:

Letting the macaron batter set and dry before popping them into the oven.

I think they looked better before they were baked.

The end result.

Super duper fragile macaron shells which cracked like crazy, despite me using minimal force when I removed them from the baking paper.
And there is no 'feet' formed.

Googled and found out that I might have over beaten or over mixed the batter.

Terrible-looking. But they taste okay actually.

The texture is almost right. Crispy on the outside and chewy in the inside (middle).

P.S: Shall try making it again when I feel like it. However, with a different variation of ingredients this time. And it would be my 4th attempt. I pray for success!

Mad over Macarons

2009-05-14T23:46:00.001+08:00

I am so going to make these!!!

Some boring updates.

2009-05-13T23:25:00.004+08:00

1) MSN is still giving me problems. I tried to un-install and re-install it, but to no avail. I give up.

2) I still cannot wake up on time, EVERYDAY. (Thinking of asking Agnes not to meet me anymore because I am feeling damn guilty about her waiting for me everyday.)

3) Screwed up today's FI quiz. (Hopefully, I don't screw up next week's ApFS quiz.) Sigh.

4) Perhaps I have gained some weight. (Haven't been exercising lately... too lazy.)

5) I think I have become a little less chatty and more dreamy and blur.

6) Still smittened over you.

7) Still thinking of you.

8) Still losing sleep over you.

9) Still confused about this.

10) Am still praying about it. (I'm sorry God, please forgive me and help me get out of this 'maze'. This is really beyond my control.)

*Shoot. I can feel myself becoming emo soon. This is not good.

Let tomorrow worry about itself

2009-05-09T22:50:00.000+08:00

不管夜多黑不管天會亮不去想明天

For you.

2009-05-09T22:28:00.004+08:00

An impossible dream.

But I hope Someday

I would be able to change your mindset

And get you saved.

Its saddening to read what you wrote.

Yesterday was a HAPPY day.

2009-05-08T23:25:00.000+08:00

Highlights for yesterday:

1. All 10 of us wore the new clique tee together for the first time. :D
2. Trip to NEWater Visitor Centre after CSAS tutorial.
3. We had FUN.

A thousand times for you.
Don't know how it happened.
I dreamt about it.
But I don't know much.
And I am confused about how as well.

Not your average Pantene ad.

My gosh.
I can't decide which one to start first.

Anger Management

2009-05-03T22:19:00.002+08:00

Had a 'big' quarrel earlier with my mother over a small, insignificant matter.
I described it as 'big' because we were practically shouting at each other.
And she was cursing like nobody's business.
Seriously, I don't understand why was she so worked up?
Fact is, I am riddled with guilt.
Because I was the one who started it.
I think the two of us need to have better anger management.
Really, like mother, like daughter.
And for the record, I didn't curse.
Anyways, everything is okay now.
Thank you God for answering my prayer almost instantly.

I still love her no matter what.

Pissed with MSN

2009-05-02T23:38:00.002+08:00

ARGH!
MSN is giving me problems.
It hangs whenever I try signing in.
I haven't been able to sign in since last night.
WTF.

So is it MSN or my lap top's fault??

This is so irritating.

Like, I know its random.

2009-05-01T22:56:00.008+08:00

A cousin I grew up with.

When we were younger (during primary school days), we often gang up together and bully my poor brother. I don't know why, but the two of us were always against him. I was a horrible sister back then... Haha! And I still remember one of the many stupid, funny games we played.

Back then, we used to play slingshot. Do you have any idea how we played it?? We drew a huge picture of my brother, naked! Then, we marked points on different parts of his body. (If I didn't remember wrongly, his private part was the 'bull's eye'. LOL!) So after that, we brought the picture downstairs, pasted it on the wall and started aiming and shooting at it. Btw, my brother joined in the game too. (Wonder what was he thinking at that time.)

Yes, I miss the good old days... Too bad, we are all grown up now. No more childish games. Hmmm...

10 things I miss doing during my holidays

Anyhow, school has started for about 2 weeks and I felt kind of worn out already. WTF.

In random order.

Sowing spiritual seeds

2009-04-30T23:45:00.007+08:00

Realization hit me today. (after bible study)

So that was actually tangible encounter with God.

All this time, I didn't know.

Nevertheless, now I know why...

I shed those tears.

I was truly touched by his unconditional love for me.

Shoo Satan, shoo away.

Far far away from me.

Tired.

2009-04-29T21:11:00.001+08:00

Sigh Sigh Sigh

I'm feeling so lost and snappish.

Confused.

2009-04-27T23:32:00.003+08:00

Dessert or Disaster?

I never thought I hear myself say

if I could, I would.

This ain't magic,

it's tragic.

10 Things which annoy me.

2009-04-26T16:00:00.001+08:00

In random order.

#1- Automatic toilet flush. (I don't need dirty water, sometimes with pee in it, sprinkling on my ass.)

#2- Automatic water tap (Especially when I am using soap, stupid sensor doesn't work most of the time.)

#3- People swearing, using the word "chee bye". (I think the F word sounds better.)

#4- Long queue at the Ladies. (Especially, when I need to pee so badly.)

#5- Peak hours when I am taking the bus or train. (Sometimes, I get armpits facing my direction and that's even worst when you are short.)

#6- Whenever my laptop lags. (Especially, when I'm watching videos on youtube.)

#7- Pimple outbreaks. (Fucking annoying and I freakin' hate to apply benzoyl peroxide because it makes my face very very red.)

#8- Bad hair days (I thank God for hair rebonding.)

#9- Chinese parsley (I hate hate hate the smell and taste of it!!)

#10- The smell of garbage and dog poo.

More next time.

Guinness World Record

2009-04-25T16:05:00.014+08:00

We, the event officials had fun.
Was tired but happy.

Yes,
TP aimed, attempted and managed to break the record of having the largest human wheelbarrow race yesterday.
Huge success. Haha.
We smashed Australia's record by having more then 1044 participants.
Bravo!!

Insights: My arms are aching like hell right now cause I took part in the race. TWICE.
And I think the butches from TP's Dragon Boat are HOT.

2009-04-23T23:45:00.001+08:00

We have our very own customized clique(Bling Blings) shirt!!
In about a week's time...
Thank you Wei Yen for your creative juices. =D

Dang!
My menses came today.
And tomorrow's gonna be a long day.
Would I be able to survive?

Insights: F*** the sweltering heat and I wonder who will be elected as our new class rep tomorrow?

Paint the sky with stars

2009-04-22T22:33:00.001+08:00

Night has brought to those who sleep

Only dreams they cannot keep

I have legends in the deep

Paint the sky with stars

Back to school.

2009-04-21T23:35:00.003+08:00

The clouds started to weep early this morning when I was getting ready for school.
And that made first day of school gloomier.

The rest of the day was like blah blah blah...
By the way, FPQA tutorial bores me to the max!
And WTF.
There's 4 hours of FPQA tutorial a week!
How on earth am I gonna survive that???

Anyhow, I love my usual clique of 'loud' friends (Bling Blings).
Cause they made study like play.

Year 2

2009-04-20T11:58:00.004+08:00

Sigh.
My holiday ended yesterday.
Haven't actually enjoyed it to the fullest.
And my body's biological clock is turned upside down.
How? *Shrugs shoulders.
Anyways, I am officially a year 2 student!
New semester starts today.
But thanks to Agnes, the class doesn't need to attend tutorial.
One more day of holiday.
FABULOUS.

Where I want to be.

2009-04-19T23:30:00.001+08:00

Warning: Boring entry.

But I don't care.
I still want to blog about it.

Was rummaging through my drawers today.
And I found an English journal I wrote...
4 years ago, when I was still a Secondary 3 student.
Our English teacher made us write journals at that time, by the way.
So I came across entry #3 (Where I want to be), which I thought was quite funny.

It goes like this...

I want to be where there is only happiness, no sorrows, no pain. A place where there is no crimes and everyone leads a sinless life. Well, actually there is no such place that exist in our World. Oh, there is one place... Heaven. Okay, back to reality.

I want to to be in a place where I can be close to nature. Wished that I could a country girl. Just imagine...

Somewhere in the distance, the crowing of a rooster drilled through the fluid stillness of morning. I looked out of the window and saw shaft of sunlight flooding in from the window, exposing tiny particles of dust dancing in its wake. I get out of bed, feeling fresh and awake. This is what I wished every morning to be. Followed by a delicious breakfast. Then attend school.

In the afternoon, tiny puffs of clouds floating in the bright sky, as I take care of all the farm animals. I would also play on the little hills near my home and farm. This is how I would like to spend my afternoon.

The sun slowly set as the few thin strips of clouds on the horizon turned shimmering gold. My family and I would be having our dinner at this time.

The last rays of the sun set over the horizon as we gather around the living room to watch television.

As night time approaches, I would lie on a recliner in the garden to admire the clear night, lit with the shattered brilliance of a million stars.

The End.

Review:

Can't believe I wished to be country girl 4 years ago! What was I thinking at that time?? My imagination did ran wild. Spending my afternoon taking care of farm animals and playing on little hills? Sounds nice actually, but it would surely bore me after some time. Well, I still love shopping. Haha. In fact, I love the city too much to be a country girl. A holiday at the countryside in Australia would be fabulous though. But I totally agree on the last part, where I mentioned about looking at the night sky. Anyway, Singapore's street lights made star gazing so difficult.

Summing up, I was being too naive/simple-minded at that time.

Note to self:

-Remember to change fish tank filter wool.

Back.

2009-04-16T12:27:00.003+08:00

French manicure. Again.
Actually they are fake nails.

I finally 'hu' le!
I don't understand why my luck was so bad last night.

5 pairs of "eyes"!

We indulged in reminiscence last night.
And it brought back so much memories.
Especially the funny ones.
Hahahaha.
I think I miss my secondary school life.

Timetable's out and I got into Psychology CDS, with 8 other friends!
So yay! I wouldn't be lonely during tutorial (:

P.S: I ate like a pig last night. So gym's definitely a must tomorrow!

Note to self:
- I still owe Jamie $10

Wouldn't be home today.

2009-04-15T01:35:00.002+08:00

Overnight @ Stef's house

MAHJONG TIME!!

Celebrating our Anniversary

2009-04-14T23:30:00.001+08:00

LZ presenting the cards she made for everyone of us.

Thank you so much LZ for your time and effort!

The cute, colourful cards... with everyone's messages inside.

Tastiest homemade soft chocolate chip cookies.

Made with love, by: Agnes, LZ, Stef

We KTV-ed from 12pm-5.50pm.

I am no.5(Wu Jie) in HaiFamily.

It sucks being short.

Our dinner.
$18.90 dishes from Hip Diners.

P.S: No cake this time though.

"I thank the Lord for this gift of friendship where I can be myself and be accepted as I am and for finding a home in the hearts of the 7 of them."

Finally.

2009-04-14T02:30:00.005+08:00

Like finally, later in the morning at 9.20am, I'm going for my dental appointment.
Fillings from one of my upper molar tooth fell out a month ago, while I was still in Shanghai.
Earliest dental appointment I managed to book is today.
I'm hoping that there's no infection yet... *Crosses fingers

My gums are feeling so sore right now.
Maybe I have been brushing my teeth too hard or maybe its the Listerine mouthwash.
I don't know.

And finally, I told someone about Ju.S. Actually, its 2 persons (YF & Jas). Well, I really need to get it off my chest. It's dangerously becoming an obsession.

I HEART HaiFamily

2009-04-13T00:00:00.002+08:00

Happy 2nd Anniversary!!!

HaiFamily is two years old and our FRIENDSHIP is stronger than ever!

Yan Fang
Zhuo Sheng
Jasmine
Xiang Hui

"I thank God I'm rich not with money but with people like you. I may not have the most expensive things but I've got a most precious gem which is OUR FRIENDSHIP!"

Easter Sunday

2009-04-12T22:09:00.004+08:00

Overslept. As usual.
Hurried and rushed.

Today's service was GREAT.
Overall it was powerful and touching...
And hallelujah!
More people were saved. (:

So after service, we went to Changi Airport Terminal 3 foodcourt for lunch.
And guess what??
There was a BABY COCKROACH in YF's shredded chicken and mushroom porridge!!
Wa lao!!!
I was damn disgusted by it lar! EEEWWW!!!
And I gagged instantly non-stop!

Funny conversation:

Yan Fang: Omg, is it a cockroach..? *Puts down spoon. (Get this, the cockroach was on her spoon!)

Jasmine: No lah, its mushroom..

Me: Let me see... if you don't want to eat, I eat for you.. *Scoops up "mushroom" and observed it.

It was then I realised that it was a cockroach! Cause there was legs and feelers...

So in the end, the three of us totally lost our appetite. It was really gross la..
In the mean time, both Jas and I checked very thoroughly every mouth of porridge we took, to make sure that there isn't any cockroach. But still we didn't managed to finish our food. Cause anyway, the three of us bought our food from the same stall..

Another thing, YF told me that her grandfather once bought a plate of fried kuay teow with a PLASTER in it!!
So funny, can?
I couldn't stop laughing at this! Imagine.. eating a plate of kuay teow then halfway, you find a plaster in it.. Hahahaha!!

And I came home to find one of my new pink colour Hush Puppies undies missing.

Another Saturday

2009-04-11T00:43:00.002+08:00

No bible study and cellgroup later in the day.

So that means, I am going to spend my day in the gym and playing the piano.
Oh, how I love holidays!!

Good Friday

2009-04-10T00:05:00.002+08:00

Today's the anniversary of Jesus's death on the cross.
The day which he was crucified.
The day which he had died on the cross for our sins.

And I'm so glad that I fell into the bed of faith prepared for me.

"You know my every thoughts...You are the light in my deepest, darkest hour... You are my saviour when I fall."

5th time MacRitchie

2009-04-07T22:59:00.015+08:00

Today's outing was ALMOST cancelled!
All because of the weather la.
But in the end
Half of Bling Blings still went anyway.

And
Today is like the 5th time I've been to MacRitchie Nature Trail.
5 times.
But I had only walked at the HSBC TreeTop Walk thrice.
Sigh.
Always because of the weather..

That's me. Rushing out from the very smelly mobile toilet.

I'm happy.

Half of Bling Blings..

"Honey stars"

By the way, we saw JULIAN HEE after taking this picture!!

Our reflection.

Our brave Wanning!

The road is long..

But it is never too long when you have friends walking by your side. =D

Dancing in the middle of the road. lol.

Candid.

Shortest to tallest.

Me, Wanning, Erica, Jamie

Playful Lixian!

So that was how we spent our time at MacRitchie.

NO TREETOP WALK.

SAD LA.

Still, I really appreciate you people(half of Bling Blings) for accompanying me to the trail..

It is not easy finding company to such place.

Next time, shall we??

P.S: Sorry for the lack of captions.

I am mentally exhausted.

For you.

2009-04-06T16:29:00.000+08:00

Ju.S Ju.S Ju.S

I am still smitten over you.
