I hate runnnnnnnnnnnnnnnningggg

sighs. just came back from PT..feel damn down lah. even if there's still a cooling berrybaby in the fridge... :((

I looked up while running, up into the moving canopy of trees, and saw a bat fly past the dark blue velvet up above, and wished at that point that I could morph and take its place. Sighs. I'm good at some things, but running ain't one of them man. totally.

Still say wanna run from tonight onwards..zhen shi de. Training with the gals alr so bu zhen qi. RAWR. I hope the cake gives me some happy endorphins.

Lipo is for losers ok. Lipo is for losers. Think THin.

CrummyCheesy BerryBaby!

There'd be no Monday Blues for me this sem, cos Monday's my free day!! *beams*

Of course, I'd obviously be doing something constructive on this day then, cos I shouldn't be starting the week off by bumming around, should I? So. Here's what I worked with this afternoon.. a cheesecake! STrawberry cheesecake to be exact. Yummy!

Okay it was pretty random, because Mindy's mom brought back 6 boxes of ripe strawberries from her Korean supermart, and they're all bursting with ripeness and ready to decompose, so yesterday I thought we'd do a cheesecake cos it's e easiest to do without a stove here in hall! And so we did.

I went down to Shengxiong to get the essentials, and got sis and mindy to do the grinding and mixing of biscuit base and philly cheese with condensed milk.. It was done pretty quickly! We were quite surprised that when we were done, only 2hours had passed..It was fun doing it too, and right now it's sitting in the freezer, waiting for the gelatine to kick in. I practised my BNJ cake deco skills, but they're kinda rusty already..so here's what we came up with! Can't wait for tonight when we reveal our Berrybaby after PT for touchrug! Mmm..what a sin. ((:

haha i'm being bombarded!

Right now i don't know whether i should feel outraged, or laugh at the ridiculous situation that's happening somewhere across the border.

Okay. I admit I have been updating myself on the life of the "other" girl. And something's happened over at her famous blog that's kinda involved me, but I refuse to take part in any of that childish rubbish. I hope the atrocious grammar the intruding party's used will prove his/her identification, and i hold faith that Xm has enough interaction with me in the 3 years to know that my English is so much better.

It's made me reflect, however..on how immature my first relationship was. I guess i was mostly hankering for attention and understanding, while he refused to give it. It's been so much better on my own, and my perspective has cleared immensely..the tiresome relationships i've seen around me has also helped alot..Why keep persisting if he's not the right one? Time is simply a lame excuse. A girl's got so much more to accomplish in one lifetime. Anyway I'm glad he's still his same old practical self, staying out of the entire mess. Just his style.

Well I guess he's got a whole new load to deal with now, now that he's hooked up with a pretty famous online blogger. I'm being innocently bombarded meanwhile, and tho usually I would feel bothered about such a situation, I find myself finding it funny--someone's trying to frame me under the assumption that revealing similar details would mislead the fans to think I was the one spouting rubbish. I'm so glad I've grown out of such childish spites. I don't think I'd ever do that to someone I love (or loved) anyway..

I'm glad he's got someone new and interesting to colour his life..she seems a handful! Well i hope he just doesn't interupt my Uni life when he comes in.. I really can't be bothered.

Bored and lost for words..

... I have retyped this intro like three times. These days I know I should blog, and I feel like blogging, yet it's just been hard to find words..I have just been unable to string my feelings into phrases and I'd type and delete, type and delete. ... There i go again.

aiyrgh!

today's one of my 3 free days this week..okay. I'm lost for words. aiyah. dun type liao.

Taiwan Part I

okayy..finally my long-awaited post about taiwan!! haha things have just been rushing in and there's the bidding for modules and stuff, and I barely unpacked my taiwan stuffs before I have packed off for hall again! anyhoos, just watched the Tennis finals for IHG and there were some pretty moves by the guys! Xiaowei's right. It simply is too easy for any girl to fall for a guy who's good at sports. Same for musically-inclined guys. Too bad I am not just any girl eh? haha okay they had hot butts thats all.

Anyway. Taiwan!! Four days is simply too short! I know I'm going back there sometime again..maybe with sis next time? haha..but pretty worth it I should say, we spent abt an average of $500bucks each, and bought lotsa bags (think about four each) and accessories(i got 3 wallets, a belt, a cap, earrings and a pretty necklace)!! wahaha..we sure can shop despite the wintry weather and lack of Singapore-suitable clothes to buy..

Taiwan Part I

The major places: Ximenting
Felt nothing like the Ximenting I saw on Jacky's show! It is so much more vibrant being there itself, in the heart of taiwan's shopping district, the bustle of the majorly youngster crowd, the bright lights and blingblings of the shops, the delicious-smelling pushcarts which were nervously pushed away when someone shouted "ma tah!".. Pricier tho, the things there--We once went back reluctantly to Shilin to buy a coupla identical wallets charged 200NT less compared to at XMT.. but i love XMT tho, the things there are pretty varied and more to our taste, and theres a VERY good mixture of shopping and food!! which is fab~ ((:

WuFenPu
This was a busybusy crowded street!! A mix of bugis street and Thailand. BUt things are of course more ex, and random hawkers would cart street snacks through the cramped passageway, and lotsa suicidal scooters would weave through the crowd. We got the most from here tho! our bags and some tops--not without a tiring time spent scouring of course. SOo much to look through! That's also where we had really good luroufan(braised pork rice) and heijitang(black chicken soup)!! Daryl look out!! (: it's across the main road and it's v prominent..This restaurant called Famosa, the huge long yellow board with red words and an old man with a beard! must try the soup!! :P~

Shilin
This place, of course, the must-try..most of the pictures i took was from here! haha the food of course. Daryl u must try the guancaiban and awluak and mango ice! I loved those three e most..didn't eat much tho cos we were too full, and just ate like 1/3 of everything so we could try everything, but was so full, i think i ate only one bite of the famous jipai and gave up. Barely tasted it! thats y i say too short la four days, too short! :(

alrites will post up to here first. trying to get my pics into a collage but still taking time! i took 400! and that's just in my cam. some pics here meanwhile: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=16773&id=595186942 haha look out for later posts! will try to reflect more than report!And Daryl enjoy ur six days there thoroughly!! you should go to xindian at the end of the green line of e mrt for cheaper wenquans! (or so i heard from an experienced friend) (:

Tantalising Taiwan~

Flying off to Taiwan tomorrow!!! The Land of Street Treats!! Whoopee!

Chatted with sis til the am.s last night, and she gave me a mental list of all the things i must try and visit! Super excited, i can't wait to go check it out for myself and really looking forward to gg there next time with sis again! haha gawd, i'm not even there yet and i'm already thinking of the next trip!

Well toodles! cya in four days~

The Stars'll Change..

Listening to Mich's blog's Alvin & e Chipmunks number now, and feeling a rush of positiveness and that maybe yes, i might've just been having a coupla bad days..I'll make a comeback this year 2008! it's only Jan, it's not too late to revive myself! Who says new years start positive all e time?

Honestly I haven't been any positive past these few weeks, I tried; went out and hung out and tried to smile and distract myself, even retail therapy doesn't work! :( awful sad. And that means its pretty bad. But I don't know the reason behind it and I just can't let myself keep rolling downhill!

Was talking to sis about plans for our 21st bday last night, and was feeling pretty hyped up and excited about the whole thing! Really, i think its fab we finally get to celebrate our birthdays like, officially together, finally! haha and it'll be our FIRST party! We've never had parties before, and we always wanted it so bad. We were thinking who we should invite, and well, it added up to almost a hundred and I was thinking we had to eliminate some groups of people, but heck, now that i've typed it out here, I can't eliminate anyone since if u read I must invite you, so if u're invited, u better come, or "i kill u!" haha.

Been catching Coffee Prince on Uchannel, and it's really so funny! I always wished i had such an animated character. It seems like Life always brings more adventures to those abundant with smiles and bounce, and that little slice of me tends, more often than not, to hide behind the bigger roles of practicality and propriety. Pretty irksome. I must resolute this year, to ignore those two Ps and give in to Boldness!

Hoping I can get thru to SEP; it's about almost everything I looked forward to in Uni! If the Big Man up there grants my prayer, my stars'll change this yr. If not, I'll have to change my stars myself! And so many things are gonna happen, that it's hard to imagine how it's gonna be.. Well, we shall just wait and see, shan't we?


Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong

Somewhere between Hello & Goodbye

Cheers to the New Year!!

My house's full with the whole family again..super noisy and the kids just keep messing the place about. I swear i've had enough of brats..why can't they stay babies forever? haha alrights. i shan't rant on the first day of 2008.
The family came for DIY pohpiahs and mahjong! Pretty scrumptious, those handwraps, and super fun to make! What better to start the year than with home-made food yah? heh shoulda have it with some beer. :D

Hm. okay, time for some DISresolutions-- To sleep as long as I like, to leave my things all over the place, and to think negative thoughts of others by first impression.

I guess Lazy's been a close friend for the large part of the end of year 2007. Partly cos it's the first hols so far that i've really been at home, and I'm just absorbing the full luxury of sleeping in in my own bed, aircon and all. So much so, I admit I've kinda become a bit of a slob. BUTBUT. This will all change when I get my wheels moving again. Going back to hall will be like Rehab from TV-and-Sleep-overdose!

I got a new template(a new year deserves a change of skin, yay!), and it's emblemed with words i should follow in the year to come--to let go, and listen to my heart. Still half done, cos i needa find out how to add in the links and kinks, so it shall do for now..

I hope everyone had a good start to Year O'Eight, and here's a toast to Year O'Seven, which has been wild--May there be new possibilities and promises come the Year of the Ox!

Christmas w the Heroes!

Okay. It is officially Christmas eve, and less than three hours away from Christmas itself. And i'm home alone w bro watching tv. Sighs. not much compared to the past five Christmases where I always had a whale of a time.. But still, I guess we can't always have eventful Christmases, can we?

This year i didnt' buy much presents nor stroll down Orchard Road viewing the fairy lights, just spent the past two days watching Heroes on my lappie..not much of a Christmas, eh? But i admit i have been feeling a little desire to be a recluse lately, so invites to kbox and a movie were rejected recently too, I'm sorry--u guys know who u are.. *sheepish smile*

Still, there's 6 days more to the end of the year!! Still a cause to celebrate, an excuse to invite old friends and a reason to party the last of Year 2007 away! I'm pretty free til next year--*beams*

Anyone needs company?

i don't know why i love this game so much, we just rawk!!
