This blog entry is totally dedicated to the complaints I have right now. If you do not wish to continue, please click the cross on the top right hand corner of this window to exit and you may proceed to read some other nicer blogs with 'I-am-super-happy-and-blissful' entries.
Sian leh...Life is so boring...
Okay let me tell you the life I have led these recent weeks, or rather, months...
A typical week goes like this:
Monday: Working/Nua until I go out in the late afternoon.
Tuesday: Working/Nua until I go out in the late afternoon.
Wednesday: Working/Nua until i go out in the late afternoon. Plus sometimes go clubbing after work/nua-ing til late coz it's...LADIES NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!
Thursday: Working/Nua until i go out in the late afternoon.
Friday: Working/Nua-ing at home. At night, msg my pals ask them what program they have for tonight and then go out til late.
Saturday: Most definitely working on this day. At night, msg my pals again for the program list tonight and then go out til late.
Sunday: Working/Go out with parents and after that meet up some friends.
(Then the cycle repeats itself again...)
BORING OR NOT??!!! Sian right? I hate leading a routine-like life. I'd like to be different everyday, I embrace new things and I love surprises!!!!!!!!! So please everyone, please surprise me can??
Singapore is too small already, even when I go out, I can only go Orchard, City Hall, Bugis to watch movies, shopping, hang-out...That's why when I heard of the changes the government is going to implement in the country, I'm absolutely thrilled.
Integrated resorts, Casinos, Clarke Quay/Boat Quay areas to open 24hrs with restaurants, pubs and clubs, All flats to be upgraded, Bugis to be a vibrant art center, Orchard to become a more convincing 'Fith Avenue' of Singapore with new buildings springing up in due time, Us to become more tourist-oriented etc etc etc. Isn't it lovely???!!!! And everything's gonna start and be completed within 5-10 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whenever I hear a new project coming up, I will listen carefully to when it will be completed and start to calculate how old will I be then and whether I'll be able to enjoy the afterworks. Hmm...So by 5-10 years time, I will be...27-32 years old. Errmmm...32 abit old la hor...but 27 still ok la. Hope everything can be developed faster for me to enjoy sooner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Meanwhile, sigh...the only thing that kept me 'alive' is to save up and go on tours in other countries. I love to experience the life that other nationalities lead. Everything is new to me there, and so I wun get bored. Sigh...If only I can get a job where I will be able to travel all over the world...
Meanwhile, pray that I get good results for my exams (getting my results on 1st Sep) and let school reopen soon (I'm absolutely bored to death without going to school). Also, hope that everything goes as planned and I will be able to travel to Shanghai and then Bangkok in October (Should be an interesting month...looking forward...)
Okay...I go bathe, watch TV and find something to eat already...Tomorrow still gotto go to work...sian...but for the money no choice...Byebye...
p/s: i know the pictures look stupid...haha but please forgive me...I too bored already...

Romantic films and love stories,
Every girl who watches or reads about them cry,
I'm no exception,
But for a different reason,
The realisation that "This will never happen in real life",
Overwhelms me,
That my tears rolled down,
Just like they have a life of their own.

F**KING HELL, TODAY MET SOME OF THE MOST KNNBCCB PEOPLE IN THE WORLD LOH. REALLY, THIS IS THE ONLY PART ABOUT SINGAPORE THAT I DON'T LIKE. FULL OF INCONSIDERATE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARROGANT AND SELF-CENTRED!!!!!!!!!!!! YES, THAT'S WHAT ALOT OF SINGAPOREANS ARE.
Okay, just let me calm down first...
Ahem, let me begin my story...
Today, I went out in the afternoon taking bus 269 to AMK central change bus. A few stops after I board the bus, the bus stopped at this particular bus stop to allow passengers to alight and board. Just when the bus has closed its doors and was preparing to drive away, there's this guy who look around 20 came running down the steps leading to the bus stop. The bus driver - being very kind - stopped, opened the door and waited for him. And the STUPID F**KER started to STROLL (YA, YOU DIDN'T READ WRONGLY...HE STROLLED OKAY!!!) when he saw that the bus has stopped for him. EH, THE BUS DRIVER AT LEAST WAITED 10 SEC FOR HIM TO STROLL OVER LOH!!!!!!! WASTE MY TIME LEH THIS TYPE OF INCONSIDERATE PEOPLE!!!! EH F**KER, YOU ARE YOUNG AND I CONFIRM YOU GOT STUDY 'HAO GONG MIN' IN PRIMARY SCHOOL ONE LOH, STILL DUNNO WHAT IS BASIC MANNERS AH??? ARE YOU STUPID OR WHAT????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NEVER SAY 'THANK YOU' TO THE BUS DRIVER UNCLE SOMEMORE!!!! IF I'M THE BUS DRIVER I CONFIRM DRIVE AWAY WHEN I SEE THE ASSHOLE STROLL LOH.
Fuming mad, I reached AMK central...then I went to buy Newpaper (coz tonight got champions league and epl...eh, pray that i win hor) then proceeded to the bus stop to wait for bus 88. When I board the bus, I found myself a seat, sat down comfortably and opened my Newpaper to analyse which matches I should bet tonight. Then there is this long-hair gal, who looks like she's 18 or 19 like that, wearing specs sitting 1 seat away from me. (Ya, I board a double deck and so I'm sitting at the lower deck on those seats with windows behind my backs) When I started reading my newspaper, she started to lean abit over to me and read together with me. It's okay...since I also do read other peoples' newspapers in buses I don't blame her for doing so also...(but I don't lean over okay)...but never mind...I 'ren' again loh...Then I turned to this page where there's an ad on handphone promotions by some particular handphone dealer I think. Then this STUPID GIRL looked at the ad with deep interest and suddenly turn over to her friend sitting next to her and say "WAH, NOWADAYS SAMSUNG HANDPHONES VERY CHEAP HOR!!!" (please note that I didn't accidentally press the caps lock key, she speak very loudly loh, I think other people in the bus also know she looking at my newspaper by then) Following this, STUPID GIRL AND HER STUPID FRIEND both leant over to see the ad. I then quickly turned the page over because I do not like sharing my newspaper with STUPID PEOPLE (PUI!!) EH, YOU ALL SAY LA...GOT PEOPLE LIKE THAT ONE OR NOT??? THE STUPID GIRLS MADE IT SEEM LIKE THE NEWSPAPER IS THEIRS ONE LOH!!! LIKE THEY ONLY LEND ME TO READ ON THIS BUS JOURNEY!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS TYPE OF PEOPLE GO OVERSEAS WILL ONLY XIA SUAY SINGAPOREANS LOH. YOU THINK LA, IF THEY GO UK THEN PEOPLE ON THE BUS READ MENS' MAGAZINE (which btw hazel say got nude pics inside one) AND SUDDENLY THEY SAY VERY LOUDLY ONCE AGAIN, "WAH!!! YOU SEE, GOT PORN INSIDE THE MAGAZINE ONE LEH!!!" XIA SUAY OR NOT???!!!!!!!!
Okay never mind. After a day's outing, I'm on my way back home. Once again at AMK central bus stop waiting for bus 138 at 11.45pm. I was sitting down on the marble-like-bench with an ah ma, and please note that the bench only have enough space for 2 people to sit, so there is only a very small space between me and that ah ma. Suddenly, I felt a presence behind my back...like someone is very near me...and then there was a rustling sound of plastic bags...I was thinking, 'Eh, dun scare me loh...now still the seventh month leh...' Then some plastic bags were dumped (or you can say squeezed) in between me and that ah ma BY (ooh-la-la) AN INDIAN GIRL. AND THIS GIRL IS STANDING RIGHT BEHIND ME LOH, THE MOST ONLY 5CM APART. F**K OFF LOH, THE IDIOTIC INDIAN GIRL IS SO DAMN BLACK HOW TO NOTICE HER???!!! TRYING TO SCARE THE HELL OUT OF ME LEH, PURPOSELY!!! AGAIN LOH, AN INDIAN!!!! SO PLEASE DON'T SAY I RACIAL DISCRIMINATION OKAY!!!
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUNGSTERS NOWADAYS HUH???!!!!! BRAIN DAMAGE OR SOMETHING LEH I THINK!!!!!!!!! THEY GOT ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHAT COURTESY IS LOH!!!!!!!!!! CAN THE MOE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT???!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
p/s: please forgive me for my pictureless blog entries recently, coz serious topics mah nowadays...cannot suddenly put a Hello Kitty pic in the middle right. Promise that there will be more pictures in future blog entries, especially after my Shanghai and Bangkok trips!!!

Beginning to ponder alot these few weeks...Dunno if it's good or bad...
Trying to accept some very new ideas in this very modern Singapore. (Yeah...Zhiwei's theory of Dating-But-Not-In-A-Relationship got me mulling over these sorta modern thinking...) Hopefully, being able to accept them will make me a happier person for the rest of my life. But seriously everything boils down to whether you can take things in your stride. If you can, you will definitely live happy.
Current stage of my life...definitely trying hard to change for the better like I mentioned in a previous blog entry. Think I'm making some progress, not flaring up so often anymore and began to find myself swallowing some of my unhappiness back down my throat once again. Ermm...so is that good or bad??
Went out to East Coast with Meng, DJ, Dan and Hazel on Friday night, had some red wine (wah...quite power!) and started our endless stream of conversations. The topic of 'communication' between boy and girl popped up again. Effective communication is almost impossible.
Scenario of a typical relationship:
Boy: I'm going out with my friends later okay...
Girl: Go loh. (Black face)
Boy: You not happy ah?
Girl: No. You want to go then go loh. (Black face still)
Boy: Then how come you look so unhappy? (getting irritated)
Girl: No la, where got!
(This argument goes on until...)
Girl: Why you every weekend must go out with your friends one? Cannot don't go out and accompany me meh! (raising voice)
Boy: You want me to accompany you then ok loh, I don't go out with my friends loh! (raising voice also)
Girl: Don't want already. You go out with your friends loh! (turned away - face the color of charcoal)
Ermm...when I mention this everytime, my friends will always agree in unison. The guys will then start to complain why girls are like that everytime, and girls will start to explain how they feel. As a girl, I totally understand why girls do that - coz I do that myself also (haha).
It's actually very simple...Girls want guys to accompany them, but since they already say they wanna go out with friends then no choice loh...LL...(therefore the black face) At this point, guys will argue that if we feel this way, we should tell them we want their company what... But the point is, we want you all to feel the same way...and not because we tell you then you do it. So, we chose to keep quiet. Then after you all kept insisting on knowing why we are so unhappy, we got to say it out eventually...But when you all offered to accompany us instead of your friends at that point, it's too late...Girls will think that you're being forced and therefore, they rejected your good intention. This whole psychological warfare thingy thus ended up in both sides being dulan of each other.
I know it is quite unreasonable for girls to be like that. But like what Hazel said, just like guys are inborne-lechers (haha, for eg Dan), girls' unreasonableness is also inborne. Actually in this situation, what you have to say to make the girls happy would be something like this, "My friends call me out tonight again leh...aiya but never mind la, tonight I want to accompany you, anyway can go out with them next time mah..." Good leh...the girl will definitely 'an-shuang' inside. Haha, but of course I understand you all cannot keep accompanying gfs and neglect your friends la, but please don't go out EVERY WEEKEND for like 3-4 consecutive weeks loh...will definitely piss your gfs off.
Okay la...I'll end here...But something for you all to ponder (haha, trying to make you all suffer like me!):
What's the difference between 'like' and 'love'??
Someone once gave me a very convincing answer, and I will remember it my whole life. But nevertheless, all are welcome to share their opinions...

If there ever comes a day,
You realise that I let you do whatever you wanna do,
And that you feel as free as a bird,
Please do not misinterprete it as I've changed for the better,
Nor that I've finally understood and give you what you want,
Because if this day really comes,
It would only mean one thing,
My love for you is fading away...

Horoscopes...interesting isn't it...
I'm not really 'into' horoscopes as in I do not religiously believe in everything it says about me. Be it daily predictions or yearly horoscope guidebooks created by astrologers due to the planets moving here and there...I just treat it as a subject of my interest - something I read for fun.
However, I find that horoscope personalities are extremely accurate. It is said that there is a main ruling planet for each of the 12 horoscopes and the ruling planet will determine your personality. I have read several horoscope personality profiles for Scorpio (and yes, that's my horoscope) on the net, magazines, emails etc...Some are long, some are short...But all of them seems to be quite accurate to me. So I proceed to check with my mum, cousins etc and they too, said that they found it quite accurate.
Among all the profiles, I found a particular one which I think is the most interesting and detailed. And now, I invite all of you to delve deeper into my heart and discover the real me...
SCORPIO WOMAN
A simple woman who always show what kind of a moods she is in. You can tell right away if she is upset, or if she is flirting with you. She displays herself with her act much more than trying to say it for it's in her character.
A Scorpio woman has her own mysterious personality. She is confident and deep down inside she is quite proud of herself. She hates to think she is borne a woman and so limiting her with a certain social acceptable rules. She is a real woman and despite her innocent and childish looks, she has a spirit of free soul. Many men will make mistake if they think she is a good follower, they are wrong.
She thinks being a plain simple housewife is boring. She likes to have power and control over other people, but this will be only her secret, so you will only see a cute woman. Every thing she does will look good, and she has all the woman's trick you can think of. She can manipulate men without they knowing it.
If you think she going to do everything you say because she loves you, then you will be disappointed. She could be a little tomboyish and she can understand you by just looking in your eyes. You may say sweet words which could sweep any woman, but not with the Scorpio woman. She will use her X-ray eyes reading your thought of what you just said or what you are going to say. She always smile and she can really hide her feelings.
She will constantly show you that she loves freedom. If she has freedom, she will not leave you, but will even love you more. If she wants something, she will do everything to get it. She has her own sixth sense of people and you can feel that energy feed back when you are around her. She likes a man who can earn her respect, and she will also respect and feel proud of that man. A man with power over her should not threat or challenge her confident. She likes to have a good looking , strong and healthy man especially if she start to compare with her friends' boyfriends. It is a plus if he hold a degree or a good career.
She is a hot lady. She likes heavy music. She either loves or hates, there are no "fond of", or "like" for her. Love has no "maybe", or "perhaps". If she is real mad, she will trash and throw things. Her wind storm can sweep all her dishes and you could get accidentally hit on your head for this matter. Be calm, it is just your grandmother favorite china for she has good quality as much as her bad temper.
Sometimes she shows her weakness, but it won't be long. She will put herself together and back to be that hot chili again. If she loves you, it will be no matter what other people may say. Her relationship will be more important than what is right or wrong. Because of this reason, you may know some Scorpio woman become a second wife, a mistress.
She is spoiled, but she allows her love one to over power her. Dating this woman, you should not keep old love letters in your pocket or in your house. It could be a love letter 2 years ago, but never mind she will argue about this since this is a big deal for a suspicious woman. Remember she has the temper of a shrew.
If you play a cold war with her, she will treat you likewise and double it. If you stood her up once, she will stood you up 2-3 times. She is quite fair in justice, so she can accept your apologies as much as she can pretend to accept things for now and wait for a pay back revenge in the future. If you are nice to her, she will double that to you as well. A real fair woman.
She likes to make and spend money. She likes to have fame and reputations, and never let herself broke and have no name at the same time. She is too proud and will not accept status of being "Poor". She loves to have face, so if you are a manager with small salary, she will be proud more than earning more money being a truck driver. She hates to think and she can not stand a feeling of being a "Nobody".
If you like her, play a little hard to get. This will excite her a bit. When you go out on a date, set your schedule, but do not let she know that you have planned this for weeks. Always go to pick her up on time or better to go 5-10 minutes early.
~
Hmm...found it quite accurate. Anyway, if any of you are interested in this particular horoscope personality profile, you all can let me know...I can send them to you thru email...
That's All Folks~

I'm really disappointed...
Guys are all bastards. To a certain extent, yes, ALL GUYS are bastards.
Recently have had some serious chit chat sessions with some of my guy friends. I can't help but feel disappointed in guys. I've always known that there are both good and bad guys out there, and the truth is...99% of the guys are bad and only 1% are the good ones (and that is on the optimistic side) I never thought that it would be so unequal, unbalanced, unfair and un-wateverelse.
Why do I say this? Not I anyhow 'bom' one ok. According from all the 'statements ' from my guy friends, this is the conclusion I've drawn. In order to prevent you all from 'shooting' me left-right-center regarding this conclusion, I think I should state a few in order to appease the crowd.
Situation 1: Most guys like to shortlist a few girls at a time. Meaning that they 'like' a few girls at a time, be close with all of them and then in the end be with the one whom they think is easier to get.
Girls' views: Girls DON'T DO THAT ok!!! Okay, I admit sometimes we do like a few guys at a time too. But we dun get close to all of them at one time and then be together with the one whom 'is easier to get' okay. We usually will decide who's the one we like the most in due time and then focus on that one.
Situation 2: Guy already got a gf. Their relationship is stable and without any problems at the point of time. Suddenly there comes another girl who likes the guy. According to my sources, as long as the girl is not a scary-monster-type or 'dinosaur', they will be tempted.
Girls' views: F**K U GUYS LOH!!! Really dun understand why guys are so easily tempted...a bunch of no-brains-only-know-how-to-think-with-their-penises-f**kers. For most girls, if this thing happens to them, it is quite difficult for them to be tempted unless there's already a problem in the current relationship with bf. Girls will usually try to avoid the guy so that the guy will get the 'hint'. (No doubt girls will feel pleased with themselves that they are actually STILL attractive, but no way...no way will they be so easily tempted)
Situation 3: Guy caught gf doing something she shoudn't. (the thing will depend on how open-minded you are la...hug, kiss, behaving intimately, ONS...) Okay, it's definitely wrong of her to do so. Guys will find it more difficult to accept the fact and to forgive plus forget.
Girls' views: If the same thing happens to us, no doubt we will find it difficult to accept too. But after an intense and careful argument and measurement with my guy friends, girls' tolerance level are generally higher than guys in terms of this kinda forgive-and-forget stuff. And to clear any doubts that you guys might have, this is commented by a friend saying that it is so nice of girls to give a chance - I did emphasize to him that it's only ONE chance, which also depends on how much you like the guy also.
BASTARDSBASTARDSBASTARDSBASTARDSBASTARDSBASTARDSBASTARDSBASTARDS
Sigh...I'm really so disappointed...My belief in LOVE dropped another notch down again. For me, it's actually quite simple...I only follow 2 principles in a relationship:
1) Things that I do not want my bf to do, I'll make sure that I wun do it first. So in turn, I will assume that watever my bf does, it would be okay for me to do it too.
2) In a relationship, I will give my very best. (although might not be up to expectations) This is so because I want to make sure that I would not have any regrets after the relationship end. I do not want to keep blaming myself for the end of the relationship - keep thinking 'it's all my fault...if I hadn't done this and that, this wouldn't have happened...' would only make the break-up more difficult for me to accept.
Sorry...another one of my serious blog entries again...can't help it...too many things happened around me recently which triggered all these thoughts...Sigh...
p/s: Girls' views represents my views and some of my girlfriends' that I've talked to before. It does not represent ALL GIRLS in the whole-wide-world.

Errr...just woke up. Went Mambo yesterday night, so damn crowded. Met a few long lost friends there, like Vance and Yen San...Yesterday's Mambo also brought back some fond memories of mine which I have carefully kept it in my heart...Sigh...
Actually I think I'm going thru a drastic change in my character and behaviour now. Other than my family, some old friends of mine might have experienced some of my previous drastic changes.
First time, I changed from being a very quiet girl to a very noisy girl in secondary school. (haha, Meng-ge knows!) From young, I have been a very very quiet girl who will always sit one side and noone will notice me. Then suddenly in Secondary 3, dunno why suddenly become very talkative. Maybe because of my new friends after the Sec 2 streaming...haha (Like Weixiao, Daphne, Shanru, Karen and Aibing...)
Second time, I changed my priorities because of a break-up with an ex-bf. Last time think coz I'm still young, I treated relationships very very seriously and my bf will always come first for me. I think most girls are like that to a certain extent but I think my case abit extreme. For eg, I would have a pre-arranged date with my friends, but my bf will suddenly call say wanna meet me then I will immediately without hesitation pang seh my friends. (Now thinking about it, I feel so bad) But after some break-ups, I realised that doing this will cause me to drift apart from my friends and after my break-ups I have noone to talk to. From then on, I know that family and friends are there forever but bfs and even husbands will come and go. My priorities thus changed. Not that friends are now more important than bf but I will always try to arrange equal quality time with my family, bf and friends. (although it might prove abit difficult to please everyone but I try my best)
I think the above 2 changes are for the better. But I think this change that I'm going thru now is not a good one.
After ending my previous relationship of 6 years, I sort of totally lost confidence in relationships. I think that most relationships do not last. I believe that relationships are bound to have problems and some problems which cannot be solved will eventually lead to break-ups. And in the case of marriages, divorces come into the picture. So thinking about it, there's actually no point in being in a relationship or marriage. And recently, I found out that there are people in this world who actually have this kind of thinking also. (SURPRISE SURPRISE!) However, this type of things is really not in your control. (I hate not being in control of things!) Sometimes, you just fall into it, like a trap.
Anyway, back to the point. During the 6-year relationship, I'm like a peace-maker. I hate getting into conflicts and so i will swallow everything although I'm very very not happy and act as if nothing happened. This will cause explosions in the end when I'm overflowed with fury and these explosions usually lead to break-ups. So now, I tend to express every unhappiness that I have (and I think I tend to be unhappy quite alot, haha) coz I don't want to suffer in silence again. This is the case for everyone, family and friends alike. There is no more of the 'compromise' word in my dictionary. This is very very bad right? I think i really need to think more for others like I did before. (but not too extreme la) I realised this change in me recently and I'm really trying to change back but it really proves to be very difficult for me. 'Once bitten twice shy'...it is so true. So, take it as a plea my friends...please try to 'ren' my unreasonableness for the time-being while I try to change back can? And also, I need all sorts of suggestions to help me with changing back to the 'original' me. So all comments are very very welcome.
Now, I'm going to do my 'ending' already. (haha) Ok, on a more serious note. In all relationships, there are happy memories, sad memories and I never regretted any of my relationships. I have learnt so so so much from each and every one of my past relationships. I hereby thank all my ex-bfs for helping me grow up - hopefully into a better person.

Everybody has secrets...
In one way or another, there will be some things that you would always keep to yourself. Friend's secrets which you vowed not to tell anyone... Some things that happened to yourself in the past which you do not wish to divulge it to anyone else... Some thoughts that you have about someone or something that you think will trigger negative reactions among those whom you know...
Is keeping secrets good? Will it cause internal injury? (nei shang, Haha) Of course, if you promised someone not to say anything about what they told you, you should definitely keep your promise. But what if it is something about yourself? Something that you yourself chose not to tell anyone?
Friends should know that I'm someone who likes to keep everything to myself. Good news, I'll share it. Bad news, I'll not breathe a word about it. Wonder why I'm like that, not very healthy i guess...But nevertheless, I didn't want to affect people's mood and I do not want to face all the question marks from whoever I tell it to.
Sometimes, I can sense that people are keeping something from me. But most of the time, the 'thing' doesn't really concern me. So why do I still have the kind of naggy feeling? Like someone saying 'He/She is not telling you something' over and over again in my mind. Probably I'm too kaypoh, Haha. I think I should learn to become more considerate. Since I do keep some things from my family and friends, it is only fair that people are keeping things from me as well.
Actually I dunno why I started to blog on this kinda 'chim' topics recently, guess I just have alot of thoughts ba...so everyone, please just bear with me okay? This kinda 'chim' atmosphere will fade away very soon...
*****
Anyway, on a lighter note, I'd like to update you all on the Mr C and Ms T that I have blogged about last month.
I heard from my source that Ms T's attitude problem had doubled after her marriage (she already had an attitude problem before the marriage). And it's such a coincidence that I had the 'honour' to meet her this week when I was working in LV NAC.
I think it was her lunchtime when she came into the LV boutique. When she saw me, her hypocritical-self appeared almost immediately. She started to give those surprised face like 'Wah, long time no see leh, my dearest friend' and started a small talk. (For your info, I hate small talks coz I think it's just a waste of my time. That is why when I saw most of my friends sometimes on the street, I will just turn my head the other way so that they won't see me - doesn't apply on close friends though)
Then she started to ask me about the LV bag she wants to buy. I'm not surprised, she's now married to a rich husband leh...of course must 'chop' him la. What I am surprised was, one of her first words are:
'Eh, I want to buy that sling bag you bought that time leh...'
Wah lau, I so long never contact her already she still the same leh...always copy whatever I buy and do. (For your info once again, that time when I was in more frequent contact with her, she always like to copy my hairstyle, buy whatever clothes and bags that I have etc etc etc...) Okay, never mind...people want to copy me prove that I got taste mah...I 'ren'...Then after that she left saying that she will bring Mr C down tomorrow after work to buy the bag.
After work that day, I was chilling out with Meng-Ge, Zhiwei and Hazel at Indochine when I received her message. She told me that she couldn't wait until tomorrow to buy it, so she went over to DFS (which opened until later hours I guess) to buy the bag. And she told me that the sales staff said that the sling bag she wants (which is the one I have hor, excuse me) is already discontinued and there are no more stock left in Singapore. (WAHAHAHA, SONG AH!! pls pardon me, got too excited...haha) BUT!!!!! Since there are no more stock of that sling bag (which btw is monogram mini juliette bleu), she bought a handcarry bag instead (which is the monogram speedy bag). SOOOO, of course I'm still very DULAN coz I also have the speedy bag!!!!! Eh, please loh, LV got thousands of designs leh...and it's not like I have hundreds of LV bags or something loh...how come it's such a 'COINCIDENCE' that the bag she wanted to buy is exactly what I have huh. SIAN...anyway, lucky I never tell her which LV bag I'm aiming next...or else maybe she'll go buy that...then people next time thought I copy her (HENG AH...)
The bags mentioned are as follows:
Monogram Mini Juliette Bleu
Monogram Speedy
Eh, don't say I biased hor. That night Meng-Ge and Zhiwei also went to take a look at her they also say she look abit bitchy loh. So it is she who has a problem not me k...haha...Anyway, she super dua-kang also la, say can get discount for Gucci bags...then the next day tell me her friend quit already. Should have expected that, last time she also super dua-kang one, always dua people...
Sorry ah...get to 'into' complaining about her already. I think I go bathe now...ByeBye...
p/s: Those are not product shots by professional photographers, they are just my own bags taken by myself.

Life is really so interesting.
There are so many people born in this world. Each and everyone one of us have a story to tell, regardless of which country you're born in or live in, regardless of your race and religion and regardless of your gender.
Recently, i thought about stories that my old and new friends have told me. Sad stories, happy stories...all of which have been etched on their minds for life. Me too, I remember every story that each of my friends had told me. Some of these friends are my close friends, some of them are just ordinary friends, and some I have already lost contact with. And now when i think back, I'm really fascinated by all these stories of life. If I have the time, I will tell all the stories I've heard here. Or I will write a book (Hmm...not a bad idea...).
Everyone have had their fair share of happiness and grieve in their life. That is where all the stories come from. At my age, I've already realised that happiness will be balanced up by an equal amount of sadness and vice versa. There is really a Balance in this world - or you can also say that 'Heaven is fair to everyone'. So anyone who's leading a sad life now, no worries, I'm very sure that your happiness will come soon.
Just met a close cousin of mine today. She's very pretty, confident, sexy and has a great career ahead of her. So apparently, there are loads of guys going after her. I asked her a question on our way home.
Me: "Why don't you have a boyfriend now? It's been so long already."
Her: "No suitable guys. They are sincere, but not genuine enough."
Me: "What do you mean?"
Her: "They can't commit. Some guys just can't commit."
Me: "Hmm..."
Her: "Don't want to get involved for the sake of getting involved. Don't want to look for a boyfriend just because everyone else has one."
Me: "So have you ever thought of not getting married?"
Her: "Ya. If it (love) comes it comes loh, if it doesn't then it doesn't loh."
This is also something my mum has taught me from young. She always tells me that it is not a necessity for women to get married, especially now that women are so independent. If it is meant to be, then it is. If it's not, no use forcing things. So, the important thing is to make sure that I would be able to earn enough money and support myself. I agree.
As everyone knows, I have an extraordinary family. Especially my mum who always teaches and preaches me about the anti-traditional things (HaHa). I have always kept in mind everything she told me, although some of them I don't really understand. As I grew up, I began to understand what she had been telling me all along. Sometimes, you really have to wait until you grow up to understand and appreciate certain things. I hereby thank my mum and the rest of my family for everything they have done for me.
Life is beautiful and every experience is a lesson to us. Although I do not believe in fairytale endings, I believe that for every bad memory, there are a hundred beautiful ones... Please appreciate it and enjoy life to your fullest!
