It's so rare for me to see the good side of life now, let alone pretty things like RAINBOWS. I think seeing one last Saturday really meant something; I'm missing out the wonderful things in life. Maybe it's telling me to look at the colorful side of things rather than the dull, ugly and monotonous... =)

This is what i coin recharge. Look at more pretty stuff, hangout with great people, lotsa SWEETS.... anything that makes me H-A-P-P-Y. Very timely indeed because if not all all these, i'm probably gonna indulge in yet another round of self-pity and incessant whining until the week's done. BECAUSE THE OFFICIAL CRAZY WEEK STARTS TODAY.

My personal brand of recharge:

When was the last time you just randomly vomit a whole conversation of nothingness to your bestest friend? if you haven't, you should try. it's therapeutic. Or you can try shouting in the car and ad-lipping to Jason Mraz's I'm yours in the most ununiform way.... and then laugh damn hard until you drown out the radio.... Love it. <3

P/S: If i ever get trapped in the car with you i might very well die of laughter than carbon monoxide intoxication. It's a compliment, love. You gimme SO MUCH JOY. LOL.

I'm gonna survive this week and live to tell the tale!!!!!!

Swimming in my own private lil joy

I wonder what it feels like to be secretly liked by someone. Of cus i'll never know because it's a secret right? RIGHT.

He must be so lucky. Though i'm nothing fabulous, gorgeous or whatever. Not even that smart. But it doesn't matter cus he don't have to know now. Maybe in a few years' time...when the feelings' gone, when i finally found someone else to plant my attention on...when i eventually become someone outstanding....Maybe by then i'll seem possible, or at least be an option. haha...

Until then, there's nothing i wana spoil nor change. Right now as i'm typing, he came online.. but i'll never find a need to start a conversation cus being here, having the slightest acknowledgment that he's withing reach is my biggest, most satisfying consolation.

I'm looking forward to the very few fridays that's left. Though he don't see me... haha. it's so funny sometimes knowing how stupid it is to just look and don't do a thing. we are friends but the ghost in me just spoils everything if you get what i mean.

Me and my school-girl crush...sigh. whatever you call it, it's just gonna last for another month or two, and then it fades, sadly. i should write a story about it or something. just one day, i will let him know. I hope he'll be flattered, that's the least i expect.

My Plain John: thank you for beong my private pool of joy =)

SAT & SUN

i watched "COMING SOON" yesterday at MIDNIGHT with kent, amy and nigel. Amy kinda "conned" us into it lah cus i didn't really know what kinda show it was until we watched it. I thought it's not gonna be so bad but OMFG. so wrong!!!! The Thai director has a knack for attacking you with consecutive blows of visual obscenity. SO DAMN BEI BI!!!!!! This is like the second time i screamed in a horror flick can. SO much for covering my ears....it didn't work that well for me this time man. @#$%

Before that, went out with my parents and fefe in the day to confrim the furnitures at parkmall and furniture mall. Shopping is SO TIRING for once.... but i'm really really pleased with the furniture in my room =)))))))) Got them all from Ecolinks http://www.ecolinks.com.sg/Palais.html I got a whole set of similar designs for the bed frame, side table, lamp and the dresser. Can't wait to see my room!!!!!

and before before that, we went to the new house again to check on the renovations. I gotta say we really have a great designer. he's damn good at organising everything and helped us with furniture shopping as well... damn responsible. but anyways, i kinda pity our new neighbours. cus it's gonna be another month and a half of noise pollution until we shift it. I hope they don't hate us. HAHAHAHAHAA... i hope they survive it well.... WAHAHAHAHHAHAHA....

At night i met up with JM and Huili for dinner. We had a happy time but we ate crappy food at Breeks. eeew eeew to the food... really unsatisfying to the maximum. we talked about our pop culture project (yuck), boys, life and our GRADUATION TRIP!!!!! Until now, it's still undecided between Australia and New zealand but Jm's not very thrilled with the idea of rotting on green grass every day. But huili and i are quite excited about waking up to freshly squeezed cow milk leh... bungy jump??? white water rafting??? COOLNESS. sigh, before we can get all hyper about it, we gotta nail the damn project. Mighty Fark. Oh and we tried to find that pseudo-tranny-self-proclaimed-J.LO at orchard road....but she didn't appear. we walked TWICE LOR!!! lol huili and i were so determined to show cherine how fugly and yucky she looked. that's our version of entertainment on a saturday night for you =D

and then Kent they all came to fetch me for the asshole movie.

TODAY: supposed to go IT show with my parents but my sis and i woke up late. my parents are so sweet to let us sleep some more... i slept at like 3am the night before, F.Y.I. and i didn;t wash my hair. very ?!?!?!??!?!?!?!? right? like mathilda lau shu yi actually didn't wash her hair and sleep on her own bed?! i'm not about to change my rules, don't worry. Haha. i wrapped my hair up in a towel so they won't come into contact with any of my pillow and bolster. I'm brilliant am i??

In the end fefe and i drove to cityhall to meet them. of cus we did all we could to avoid the swamp at the IT fair. i hate crowds. we had a nice lunch at kenny rogers and spent the rest of the afternoon with our parents in Harvey norman's home theatre system room. the promoter played Elva's concert DVD...Thankfully. but i still felt like sleeping. i actually fell asleep outside on the couch in front of a display LCD tv...IN PUBLIC. lol.

like i said, SHOPPING IS INDEED TIRING!!!!!!

Oh! i just bought the Harajuku "lil'Angel" perfume by Gwen Stefani for Huili's 21st birthday LAST YEAR. OMG. my bad, our bad (me n cherine). I hope huili will love it cus i LOVE IT!!!!!

What's with so many personality tests now???

I really don't believe in personality tests. horoscopes are different, they don't compartmentalise you by every little detail they want you to answer. Honestly, you and i, we don't need personality tests to tell us who and what we are. Just ask your friends. If they're close enough to you, they'll tell you the truth. I cannot capture the logic behind a thousand people having done the exact same personality test getting the same few template outcomes. Seriously, put your hand over your heart, DO YOU BUY THAT? and guess what, to prove my point, i randomly did one that my friend tagged me just to confirm the lameness of it. I tried to answer with all honesty, every damn question but you know, not every single one applies to me, so i anyhow whack. Some are simply incredulous... like why is it that i can only find a bottle, ring or mirror at my feet?? why not trash or shit or at least something more practical???? yes, in case u still dont know, i'm ultra pragmatic. that's not to say i don't dig fantasies...i still do but not this.

at first i was like "oooooo, not bad, quite true." but as i go down the list it's just one false deduction after another. and naive people like..i dont know, some naive people....they'll start to think "oh yeah, totally me...so true.." then when they chance upon something untrue they'll probably just put them off as exceptions.... People like to seek comfort from these things i've come to realise. Isn't it pathetic to find comfort in knowing yourself through the internet? What's next? You wana get married online?? not that it's totally bad but why waste your time on them?? If you're so free, spend more time with your friends...enjoy their company, engage in crappy conversations, gossip, drink and get drunk, spend time with yourself, reflect, dream a little more when you sleep....whatever makes you happy. If you pay a little more attention in times like these, you'll see yourself clearer. even others will see you clearer through ACTUAL SOCIAL INTERACTION.....If not,

just go do the stewpid personality test lah.

Muffy got Jabbed & Rotten Banana

Firstly, this is for YY (By request)....

This is when i just permed it.

It Looks more CUI now. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...

Brought Muffy the lil terror to Mt Pleasant Animal Hospital at Whitley today. Guess what, as expected, he didn't dare make a sound once we reached there. gutless boy. haha. but luckily he is gutless, if not i'll be in trouble. This is like his 3rd vaccination in 5 years...not that i don't care about his welfare ok, it's my mom who stopped me from bringing him for check-ups cus she couldnt bear to see him suffer. But after all the stories i heard of my friends' ailing dogs, i better let him suffer a bit for good. lol. At first i thought he was gonna bite the fingers off the vet but he didn't even make a fuss about it. poor boy, breaks my heart but still... WE HAVE TO JAB YOU FOR YOUR OWN GOOD. tsk tsk tsk... he'll come to thank me one day. Maybe the vet was too cutsey-looking. Back home he puked like 3 times. I wonder it's the jab or my mum's driving =X he looked so stoney i cannot help laughing, so adorable. haha. i know i'm evil but it's not often u get to see him in slow-mo considering he's hyperactive. The vet says he's gonna be in this state for a few days.....OH! and i bought a pair of rubber toothbrush for him! he has NEVER had his teeth brushed since he was born. How's that??

And eeew eeew EEEW... as i am typing now my dad just realised he had a banana in his suitcase since 3245678 years ago. The stench is so bad you won't believe it. a BANANA?!?!?! in his SUITCASE?!?!?!?! My mom and i took turns to condemn him...OMFG. the rotten-smell is still in my nose and i'm about to drink my glass of milk....with that smell.....still in MY NOSE!

EEEEEW to the MAXIMUM.

A shout-out to JM and Da Nai: Remember to do your FXE hor. DO everyday for half an hour and we can surpass Nai Zun in no time!

This week's quite eventful actually. Lotsa "exciting" stuff happened (I hope you get the pun).

I know i threatened jiayi and Fefe not to breathe an air about it but i figured i should share anyways. Top of the list for all that excitement is my car's door flinging wide open when i initiated a left turn at Penjuru. It's really FUNNY now and i may be laughing about it but i nearly got someone killed should there be a motorbike rider behind me. But the hilarious part was the way we all reacted when it happened. jiayi was like 'WWWWWAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!", pointing hysterically at my door while i did a death-defying stunt by stretching right out for it in an equally comical+hysterical manner. My sister, seated at the back laughed uncontrollably at everything.

SO, Thank God nothing happened to anyone and my car's still intact.

We drove to Orchard for our weekly Dinner cum Bonding sessions and Fefe treated us to Crystal Jade cus of her magnificent results. OH, talking about her reseults. I have to repeat this a gazillion times until i'm Shiok about my SMARTY PANTS sister....

She got a Wooping

6 As for her A'levels

And for that, we'll be able to upgrade my "little White" to a neat Mini Cooper by the end of the year. Kudos to you my sista! I'm getting a taste of all the great things in life thanks to you. WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA

OKay so that's monday.

On Tuesday, i skipped the darn disgusting NM3225 lecture again. OMFG, i just realised i don't even remember the module code cus it's so freakin' retarded to me. but i gotta say, the lecturer's nice, but niceness isn't quite a credible motivation for my attendance. But HOW? never go lecture how to take exam? hoho, Thank goodness i have Chow Poh Si...

(Roughly.....)

Me: So, am i an asshole if i ask to copy your notes

Posi: Yes, quite but i will still let you copy...

Posi: Because I LOVE YOU

Me: OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Posi, you are so going to get a nice pressie for Xmas. =D

haha....aaawww, what is school without family like Posi... and Cherine....and Huili........... and posi and cherine and huili. LOL.

Met up with Keith, Cornelius, Penghui, Nigel, Elijah, Ah Boon and Kent for dinner before Keith leaves for Germany again on Friday. Supposed to play paintball but in the end not enough people so we eneded up eating at PS. Their conversations never fail to fascinate me. Especially with Elijah's theory of Gambling... Totally hilarious.

Wednesday: I have a confession. I think Gerald messaged me after midnight to remind me to wake him up this morning. it's either i deleted the message in my unconscious sleepy-state, or i took it as a dream. i blatantly ignored the issue...and i guess he didn't wake up for the 8am lecture. HA HA HA. See, this is why i don't prefer to switch on my phone when i sleep.

I'm gonna bring Muffy to the vet tmr for a check-up. I hope he won't freak out. LOL.

Doubting me

Recently i was told by a friend that i'm like the female-version of him. Obviously when i heard that i got really pissed, like why the hell do i have to be like anyone else?? i wana be ORIGINAL, because i am original in my own perceptions. But then again when i sit and think about what really makes me original, what is the single most striking difference that's enough to rebut his claim (besides my biological making), i couldn't think of any.

Am i really that dull, or unoriginal? i still don't think so. but i do have a revelation. yes, yet another revelation - that i don't know myself too well after all.

Sometimes i get so caught up with what i want to be and what i want to be known as that i unknowingly compromise what i really am. I pay too little attention to the little things i do when people aren't around. I'm not that nice, i'm not that smart, i'm not BOTHERED.

I say i hate facebook and it's billions of retarded applications. I can't be bothered with them and i wonder why anyone else did. well, at least they bothered. I'm just too aloof to believe that any of that application is of any use and meaning. Take the 'Notes' application for example, people write 25 notes about themselves, they might have more. I struggled with coming up with even 10 in half an hour. at the end of it, i just felt sad and sorry and really empty cus i finally realised how unoriginal i was. One, for playing along with the application. Two, for the list of unexciting information that 80% of whoever i tagged already know.

And i wana admit something - sometimes i say i don't care but i actually do. That's directed at one of the 10 things i wrote in the notes.

What is there not to care anyways if it's about me right? Let's just say i really mean it if i repeat it more than 3 times, if you get what i mean.

It's nice to be reassured once in awhile. I need it. cus i need to know why i've been missing out for so long. Tell me what i am, if you really care.

I'm really curious.
