We Are Different

The extent of such shagness.
when warm up makes u more shag than climbing itself.
when we ponder about what ifs using excel sheets.
when on my way home at 11pm,
i wonder why everyone is so dressed up
then i realize its saturday night.

We Are Different
Because We Only Have WeekDays.
There is No End.

eunice the hockey player

manda's fellow hallmates are a bunch of sports players and outside their rooms u see hockey sticks all around. and this is a random picture i spot, of eunice the hockey player. someone i tried to be in my jc days. but that didnt work out and my hockey stick is rotting somewhere.

one said that im an underachiever. mum says im too lazy & too slow. one said 'i don't think anyone can handle you'. ok, boo boo to me.

i need 8 arms to hold me as well.

eunice needs to learn how to control her emotions.

soul food

warm up my soul instead of my muscles.

Beyond 光辉岁月

my whole family watching the beyond concert 2005 and singing along to it. it will always be a regret to not be able to watch a Beyond concert and that they have done their last world tour. There are few people u brand as classic or legends and to me Beyond is one of them. They have my favourite drummer ever and belting out 'Paradise' always brings this sense of nostalgia.

I realize that the Music that you listen during your childhood sticks with you, things u listen to but left forgotten during the later years, u are surprised by how you still remember the melody & how familiar everything sounds to you even though u never knew the title.

play it over n over again.

Week 6

While the nussers & ntuers are having their midterm break, smooers are still struggling with week 6. 2 more weeks to mid term break. so life has been bland and like how it should be for smooers.

a certain little bird who flew my aeroplane felt jealous cos jan and cel are having the time of their lives. i guess only God will know when its time for us to have the time of our lives.

meanwhile as Greenday puts it "its something unpredictable but in the end is right. I hope u had the time of your life".

"It’s hard holding you
Loving you, losing you
It’s sad to be true
And be fooled by you
I don’t know (I don’t know)
I wanna know
Should I stay or should I…?

This time its done
It’ll never feel the same
But we had some good times
Guess it’s sad just the same
I guess the truth
Doesn’t matter somehow
But you were livin’ proof of what love is about…"

Should I Stay :: Dreamz FM
(i didnt know it was by a local band)

Enchantment - Corinne Bailey Rae

I wait for you.
I don't know why. all i know is i can't hide.
at this temperature you could take over my mind.
like gossamer, you softly touch.
he draws me in, i'm powerless.
he possesses an enchantment.

tell me i'm forgiven.
he calls, don't know how i fell under his spell.
lately i've been driven.
he smiles, an enchantment.

i wait for you. I'm mesmerized this love is like a potion in disguise.
i'd tightrope walk with a blindfold on my eyes.
I can't escape, or so it seems.
I'd run away, he's in my dreams. he possesses an enchantment. tell me i'm forgiven.

it's the kind of sleepwalk that never ends.
a type of loan with no dividends.
it's a parlour game where you're given chase.
guess it could be called an acquired taste.

i know, he knows, he calls, i go, i know.
this could be an enchantment. why don't you tell me i'm forgiven?
he calls, don't you know how i fell under his spell.
i'm forgiven...lately i've been driven.
he smiles and i give in, an enchantment.

Getting Even

noone wanted to go out last saturday, but today we so deperately need to unwind that we went for a movie & another gathering is under plans for tomorrow. talk about impromptuness but i guess we are really desperate for a break from the school hecticness. and the answer to that was obviously a chickflick - John Tucker Must Die.

i am so wiped from today's stretching alone and walking around in my flats yesterday kills my heels. shall retreat from here.

ending note: its exciting, i can smell Elections around the corner.

This week's Friday

has it fair share of class, anal prof, project meetings. but there's also friends and happiness for the tummy @ Sakae's.

& 猪仔 for my mates! eunice as a junior always has to have one of these during mid-autumn festivals. & lantern burning & double yoke mooncakes.

havent done this small-gifts thingy for a longlong time. and we used to give each other stuff with any given opportunity, start of school, examinations, vday and all.

i was being nostalgic.


the smile that made me smile about the smile that made me smile.

the uglies

gan ann thought i was kidding when i said that there's such thing(s) known as uglydolls. well, i kid you not. "...Contrary to popular post-millennial opinion, being ugly is not always a disadvantage. Because despite today's image-obsessed media, ugly sells. In fact, we reckon ugly is the new beautiful. "

Babo - "What Babo lacks in mind power he makes up for in love. He will stick with you to the end, and when something scary happens, he will send you a nice greeting card from the faraway place where he's hiding." I think Babo is inspired by I am Sam.

Jeero wants to hang out with you. Why? He needs you. Jeero thinks life is so complicated, so he needs you to comfort him. People ask him so many questions. What time is it? Why do you have a nose? Do noses mean you're a smarty? What are bills? How do you get from here to there? Neener neener neener, on and on the questions go... Jeero has no idea what makes them think he has any of the answers. Maybe they think his red nose means he's Jeero the wise. Well he's not! Jeero just wants to sit on the couch with you and eat some snacks. Is that too much to ask? Jeero doesn't know. He just knows how to eat and exercise. I think Jeero is inspired by Weizhong.

idiosyncracies are real. hahahahahahaha

1. even if the smoo library doesn't operate 24hr like in seoul, it opens till 12midnight. all you chao smuggers.

2. even if you are not an ah pek nor an alcoholic, you still drink beer at the kopitiam near school. during lunch hour. with people looking. just because your friend needs his beer desperately. as of this moment, i cannot believe i did not do this as a dare.

its always like that. the hkies did not feel that far away when we were just msn-ing each other as per normal. but when they called, i just miss their stupid talk and laughter. as with celine too when she first went over to Paris. Jan u better not call. and you better not tell me your dad could have gotten the tickets as well as backstages passes for the shinhwa.

My Happy Valley signboard hangs up lovelyly on my door.

Valley Song

...I will sing of Your mercy
That leads me through valleys of sorrow
To rivers of joy
When death like a Gypsy
Comes to steal what I love
I will still look to the heavens
I will still seek your face
But I fear you aren't listening
Because there are no words
Just the stillness and the hunger
For a faith that assures

eunice,
over and out.

as October draws near, my mind ticks for other means of getting income. Tuition commitment for the PSLE kind will come to a close (Thank GOODNESS) as well as for climbing, and i really need the moolah if i want my summer plans to manifest.

A job in December, i so desperately need.

songs for sharona.
why thank u.

disgusting mugger team rejected my invitation to go out cos they are all mugging in school. Look what has SMU done. Even freshmen! Richard is disgusting too. so, i came home to sleeep.

.....SAD!! Apple, euneh miss u !! Come Home!

on friendship or the lackthereof
to me i feel that msn or other private communication channels like my own gmail are private and ways for me to keep in touch and get connected with friends, not work. while discussions may be necessary due to time constraint, sure, but to a minimal. so i do get kind of bleurg when certain say "course mates" msn you just to get you to send notes they accidentally deleted or to ask you if you have done your assignment. simply throws me right off.

i dont believe in hanging out with people who dont make you grow spiritually or feel good with. people who make you laugh harder, think deeper, hold stupid or intellectual conversations with, basically people who allow you to be yourself instead of a 2 face monster. people who genuinely care. thats are what the people in my inner circle do for me and thats what i hope i am doing for them as well.

it is in the name of good humour when i said "hey, he has a good camera, let's make use of him. I mean make friends with him." i mean, it is quite hard to make friends with people whom you dont like even if there are benefits to be offered.

bottom line is - don't be a liability. and quote of the day from manda:
"boys....ask them to keep quiet unless they can improve the silence"

and allow me to remininsce. i'd post a picture whenever im thinking about the goodtimes of my hols or missing you guys!

(L-O- L-O- L-O-V-E... 许留山! mango goodness with mango, mango pudding, mango sauce and coconut ice-cream!!) im craving for the Vita Lemon-tea as well.

today is my mum's birthday. people are eager to bring her out for a treat, 1 of my auntie even sms-ed me to made sure i remembered. cos i do (although i think it nearly slipped my mind since i am basically losing track of dates but just living my life day-to-day) because my mum hinted. so shrewd. my dad called me just so we could pick up a citizen watch for her together. despite all the drinking, coming home late or at unearthly hours, dyfunctionality magnifies such good acts.

but still, as my mum always instill in me. No alcoholics. No ALCOHOLICS. NO alcoholics.

here i come to save the day! nice comic strip done by drey but who is missing. me, who is on my way to the doc's @ that time. boo.. i missed out! but it was great catching up with drey on the train ride.

had happy food with ganann earlier this noon but shreeching voice messed up my nerves. noise do get to me, especially high pitched noise.

but this makes me wanna dance.

你的嘴角
微微上翘
性感地无可救药
想象不到如此
心跳你的一切都想要
开心的意料
神圣的祈祷
我将给你的信号
已陪你装出个吊
这里最不可缺就是人呢
你想起
给拥抱
烛火在燃烧
用梦中轻佻眼神
试瞧了几秒
关于你的舞蹈
你慵懒的扭动肢腰
受不了你随风飘扬的笑
有迷迭香的味道
离开薄荷味的撒娇
对我发出恋爱的讯号
你优雅地像一只猫
动作轻盈地围绕
爱的甜味蔓延发酵
暧昧爱的刚好

迷迭香:: 周杰伦

caught Stories about Love, this new anthopology series on TV. i just miss doing my favourite things - to be a couch potato. the only time i get to watch anything now is during lunch/dinner time.

still trying to get back into the mood of schooling after the 6day hiatus. meetings, projs coming up and i actually had a test today as well. Apple's off to Paris already so that leaves me with Weizhong the bugger. this sure dont sound fun.

music: addicted to love

Last day to have fun in Hk cos we were flyin' off the next morning. I went with fi's mum to buy the pastries to bring home. 老婆饼 & eggtarts! [ohman,imdroolingasiwritethis 好好吃！*hou hou sek ah!] and then thats how Hkongers do their fresh marketing on the extreme right.

in the noon, it was down to manda, fi & i. which was good too．and we went to Central in search of good stuff @ Pedder's St. but got disappointed. Caught a glimpse of the place where the rich and famous hungout. Nearby was Lan Kwai Fong 兰桂坊.　Right out from the MTR is this HUGE Louis-Vuitton. Uphill was more shops & buildings. which made us go "wah" in unison under our breaths. BUT where did we end up @? Starbucks. You guys dont really think that manda could survive so many days without her starbucks right. Then we proceeded to Causeway Bay 铜锣湾 by tram (i love the trams cos its makes everything so vintage) ，which is like our town where the youngster loitered at after school. We went to this trendy mall which sells all the cool stuff but out of my budget. I got a cheap pair of flats though!
　 (@ Central: uphill.upmarket.)
(fi's humsup face.)

Dinner was @ 大家乐 which was the Hk's version of fusion Chinese/Western fastfood. Eunice loves the billboards in Hk, but nothing matches this running advert of Kwon Sang Woo 권상우 for Samsung. Manda & i were swooning (much to fi's dismal) but oh MAN!!!



Post Dinner it was back to 波鞋街 for fi's adidas & for me to complete my 臭豆腐　challenge. All i can say is, whoever invented it sick. this is what i call SICK FOOD. (and guess what, fiona enjoyed it very much.) TALK about WEIRD.....

More digusting food. On the left, some animal's tongue and right is chicken claws and I'd leave you with that. Peace Gross Out!

and my favourite day of all - Day04:: 海洋公园！

Ocean Park brought out the kid in all of us & the hedonic need for excitement. I totally enjoyed my day with the rides, dolphin/seals shows & cable car rides. i am a deprived kid from Singapore - whose the best offer is Escape Themepark. the rides we took! and the noise we made (like pigs brought to abatoir)

we were H.A.P.P.Y

HongKong Day 03

On the 3rd Day, Stanley Market was our destination. After having dimsum (and eating a
bloody big piece revolting of TER-GUA 猪肝) we were off Central to take the bus up to Stanley Market.

(left: dimsum!, thick digusting ter-gua, disgusted me, exasperated manda, us on the mtr & fi!)

So off we went for a bus ride right, passing by Repulse Bay etc. 浅水湾 & 深水湾 (loosely translated to: Shallow Bay & Deep Bay) Well, i became the object of fi's family fascination at how i can take pictures of everything. i felt like a little girl, armed with my toy, i wasnt the least bit sleepy but sit right beside the window, taking in everything i saw.

roads in hongkong are ever weaving and overlapping across each other. driving there is a skill to be acquired indeed. cool things we saw include this whole row of car dealers. MINI, Maserati, you name it, it's there. I was swoooning. Apparently cars are cheap in Hk, so u don't get to see lasup KIA & Hyundai there but BMWs convertibles. If you thought buying a sports car is dumb in SG, its more dumb to do that in Hk given the traffic jam. So unless you come out in the middle of the night like jay chou and do your drifting..well u get the drift.

Repulse Bay was pretty but we didnt get ourselves charred there under the 35dc temperature . (Or very O.C in Gan Ann's words) and Stanley Market being like a touristy ChinaTown. driving up the winding road was an adventure in itself.

After which, we were off to catch the night scenary @ Tsim Sha Tsui 尖沙咀 Avenue of Stars. It was by the bay long walk way with celebrity leaving their palm prints on the floor. We waited for ages for the Symphony of Lights whereby the commercial buildings across the sea would light up in symphony with the music. Hk's skyline is really beautiful.

Again we were all SO famished, and here's dinner back @ Mongkok. Porridge. quote: "i could eat this forever..."
