Hello! February 5, 2010

I know I haven’t been updating much, but here’s an update on my new love! Not a taylor in the end, but almost like a taylor, and its not laminated! Basically, my dad knows the guy who distributes taylors and he has his own brand of guitars which were patterned after taylor guitars, named after his first son. I got a timothy guitar and its made of mahogany wood, not the usual light brown guitar, this one’s darker, but its gorgeous. Sure, the taylor was nice to play, but this one, I like this one (: So yes! A guitar! with everything else included. Its gorgeous.

Also, I fell down the other day, quite dramatic, but nothing big. Got these three gorgeous bruises on my left shin. Seriously, they are gorgeous. I’m not a messerchist, I just like bruises.

Anyway, I’ve got a guitar now! Bringing it to melbourne, goodbye nice long nails and hello to mahogany wood :D

so January 19, 2010

I am currently watching chinese music videos on mtv, bumming around, and deciding what to eat for lunch when I meet yihui later. An update on what I’ve been up to yea. After I stopped working in dec, I’ve basically been going out and having fun :D Met up with the girls in singapore, and had fun! Not only 9loves and gjyy, but with half of 4b3, which is pretty cool! Caught up with everyone, lots of surprises, but its all good in the end (: We had fun, laughed, and made a whole lot of noise.

Why do chinese singers enjoy putting english lyrics into chinese songs? Hmm.. Oh yes, went to KL for a couple of days with my parents, which was fun :D Yummy wanton mee which I haven’t been able to get out of my head, and I’m pretty sure I’ll be craving it. Also decided that this year I’m going to attempt to video everything down, which is going to be hard, but I’m going to try. As and when I remember. I realise that I don’t have many photos of Melbourne, other than what other people take randomly. So, yes.

New purple earphones, and purple fingernails and toenails! :D Maybe I’ll go buy new nailpolish later, I wanted a paler shade of purple on my fingers. hmm..

Choices January 3, 2010

“Did it ever occur to you that you’re so caught up in trying to make the right choice, that you’ve never stopped to consider the possibility that there may not be a right choice, or a wrong choice, just a bunch of choices?”

- Dawson’s Creek

I’ve never watched Dawson’s Creek, but I read this off Tumblr and it basically summarises my current train of thoughts. There aren’t things such as good and bad choices because at that point in time, you’d think it was a good choice, or a good idea. Now don’t bring up drugs and smoking because the inventors of smoking, they swore that smoking would not cause cancer, and yet it does. You see, to them, it was a good idea, a way of making money. So really, no matter what you think, a choice is a choice. It isn’t good, and it isn’t bad. Its just a choice that you have to make. What makes it appear good or bad, are the reasons behind the choice. Is it for your benefit, or for the benefit of others? Does it help the people around you, and your future? A choice I make might seem like a bad one to you, but it might not be a bad one to me. Does this make any sense?

My thoughts are currently all over the place. What’s completely not helping is that I’m having a sorethroat. Blergh.

This is my last year of my undergrad degree. Its also the year that I turn 20. I’m graduating, getting my first degree when I’m not even 21. Its scary, extremely scary. I don’t care that I”m turning 20 much, more of the graduation. Can’t imagine wearing the black robe at the end of the year.

But Happy New Year everyone! :D

December 25, 2009

Now I’m excited! I love going away with my family, and we’re going on two holidays this break! Hurray! KL in a week or so, and then hopefully Bali. YAY! Hello massages and spas. I pray, hope. Mom, we’ll go for spa okay! And massages okay!

A colleague told me today that I look like a boy. Especially from the back. Patience is a virtue yes? So I will grow my hair long again. I miss tying it up into a bun.

Ask me out people! I finish work on sunday. Hello freedom!

Christmas was pretty good even though I worked on both christmas eve and the day itself, no my church does not have a service on christmas day itself. Tomorrow I get to see my baby cousin, grandma, and hopefully watch a movie. Presents! I’ve got presents for people but *note to self* REMEMBER TO PASS IT TO THEM! Okay, good night.

Thank you Jesus! December 23, 2009

Well, the past month I’ve been working at Hugo Boss in Taka and as much fun as it is, its extremely tiring. Well, my last day is on sunday, so come plan a date with me for next week! So, for the past few weeks I’ve been working really hard,  meeting new people and having fun. Its hard work though, standing on your feet all day long and having to always be on your best behavior. For some weird reason, people always always come up to me asking for directions either to a shop or to the toilet or something like that. But seriously speaking, working is so much fun not only because of the people (customers and staff), but also because I’m learning so many things! Mostly customer service and how to fold clothes. Oh yes! And I’ve also learnt that I work best under pressure. Its so tiring though, standing all day. Plus I haven’t really met up with anyone the past few weeks which is horrid.

But yes, this is what I’ve been up to the past 3 weeks. Say hurrah to money! :D Christmas in two days, I’m frikking excited! Even though I’ve got to work on that day (hopefully), its double pay! But its christmas, so that’s always good. I think I’ll buy candy canes for everyone at work. Today God totally blessed me at work. Favour! Today a customer handed me his namecard and told me to call him when I graduate if I need a job. Now, how cool is that? It totally made my day and night :D So yes, thank you JESUS! So now, I have to write my christmas cards, if I manage to finish writing them in time. Probably not, but its okay. Probably won’t see you guys til next week or so. Okay, Merry Christmas everyone! Love ya’ll :D

I’ve got an extremely serious question to ask you – December 6, 2009

Are you happy? Truly happy, feeling warm on the inside kind of happy?

Christmas December 3, 2009

The snowflakes are back on wordpress and you know what that means.

CHRISTMAS IN A MONTH!

So here’s my christmas wish list:

1. a guitar would be nice. Then I can practice when I go back to Melbourne!

2. that bag from Loewe

3. the white coat

4. a holiday

You know what, I don’t even know what I want for christmas. Actually, I do, but I know that whatever I want, by christmas, it’ll be done. I think I am going to take a nap right about now.

I found out yesterday that my dad used to wear Hugo Boss and YSL suits, and my mom used to wear Bruno Magli and Ferragamo shoes. Now won’t it be nice if they still did? Although there isn’t really much of a point in wearing such nice clothing and wasting money on items. The white coat that I want? Its price is enough for a round trip to Melbourne. Why would I buy a coat when I can pay for an airticket? Maybe in 10 years, we’ll see how it goes.

giraffes and the like November 30, 2009

I love it how I can be thinking of something, and then it comes up in conversation.

 

Here’s where I explain why I like giraffes so much. You see, out of all animals, they are the most awkward, and the ones that don’t make sense. Of all animals, they have a bone structure that restricts them from bending downwards the usual way as their hindlegs are 10% longer than their forelegs. That’s why when they drink water, they stretch out their forelegs. Also, they don’t gallop like other four-legged animals. At low speed, they move the left legs, and then their right legs. At high speeds, their back legs cross outside of their front legs. Both males and females have these cute horns and prefer the twigs of trees but will eat grass and fruit. They’ve also got a really really really long tongue!

 

That’s why I love giraffes. And I wouldn’t have liked them if a friend didn’t give me that giraffe pillow. So yes :)

Awake November 28, 2009

I just watched a really good movie. Its called ‘Awake’. Have you heard of it? Its about this businessman, and he gets a heart transplant but was awake during the surgery, and overheard a plan to kill him. Really really cool :D

I’m currently listening to John Mayer’s new album, Battle Studies. Have I told you that I love it to bits?

Can I be Princess Jasmine please? November 19, 2009

So by this time tomorrow, I would have finished the last exam of the second year of my degree. By this time next year, I will be finishing up my first degree at the age of 20. Scary innit? I was talking to my aunt and uncle last night, and we were talking about the possibility of their other 2 kids coming over to study in 4-5 years. That actually scared me quite a bit cos by the time my cousins, if they decide to, come over to melbourne to study, or anywhere really, I’ll be 24/25. Tell me that doesn’t scare you? I’m not afraid of growing old, because I believe that growing old is just a mentality. What scares me is that time passes by so fast!

 

So my exams are gonna be over soon and I’m pretty damn excited. So much such that my heart is actually racing at the prospect of 3 months of doing absolutely nothing. Hopefully, a holiday overseas. Somewhere cheap will be good :D Other than malaysia larr. I’m looking forward to seeing my family and friends. Yes, I am looking forward to going home, but I know that I can’t wait to get back here and have fun (: I’m looking forward to NOT GAINING WEIGHT in singapore, and lots of hugs, kisses, and ahem, birthday presents *cough mom cough* :D Love you mummy! So yes, soon, and very soon.

 

Okay, back to studying again. Blergh. Last paper, WE WILL ACE THIS! 3 hours, and it’ll all be over. And, in Jon’s terms, HUZZAH! :D

 

I didn’t steal the line, your name’s there Peak Sheng!
