i'm still a little disoriented? maybe a blue monday will put me back on track.
been a long week and long(er) weekend, can't really remember what i did but it was long. oh, today i had to wear the white dress i bought a few years ago. if you search through the posts you'd find a pic of it. the dresscode was all white, so. just wear lah.

WEEK/end

timmy accessorizing.

chapatti at tekar market. good stuff.

cousin's heels' makeover. leftover gold nail polish that me dad hates. HAR.

charcoal hands! sketched a photo of mom and dad but it turned out ugly.

OH YESH i finally got round to getting the stuff and starting the painting! look 30% done!!!

whaddaya think.. heartstring-tugger? hmmhmm. babe's head is too big. will get this done by the end of this month, whoo! (must psych myself up lah~) i REALLY hope this wins something. really really. come to think of it, it's kinda funny that i don't plan to pursue art as a career anymore huh? when did that happen...

hopefully i might get some business from the convention thing. you know, rich people see it and take pity on this poor developing artist person and say hey, why don't i pay you to do one for me? fat hope, but you never know right? so far i've only drawn for my friend and he paid me 35 bucks plus lunch. ha.

this week has passed by fast and i'm a little disoriented. hey, today's a FREE DAY! good thing because i gotta return library books and buy paint and canvas whoo! and make one baby shower card, i must not forget that.

i think i'll paint something to do with a child, like reaching out or something easily touching like that. from what i heard, the judges are not.. exactly.. artistic (they're just parents or volunteers who are free at the time) so i will just paint something simple that hopefully pulls some heartstrings. actually i'm not even sure if i can get a painting done in time. i have until the end of this month. yeah daddy sprang that duedate up on me and i was quite mad because NOW THEN HE TELL ME i thought i had until june ARRH! sometimes he thinks it's easy to just pump out a painting in a week and it'll dry by tomorrow. no, daddy. sighs... no point saying, just try lah.

been starving from shopping. kill kill kill the fleshhh. *says flesh like gollum*

i need to go toilet.

songhyegyo your head lah tim. hahah~

GETWELLSOONGEILLLLLL<3

daddy is bugging me to go jogging. it seems since tim is gone he's turning his fitness-first attentions to UM, moi! roar no no no.

what should i paint for the competition? what?! i dunno! no flowers please.

grandma trouble.

she's not sick or anything, just telling different stories to my mom and uncle and causing alotta misunderstandings. intentionally? seems like leh. she's known to be naughty when she wants attention, but.. i dunno. give her the benefit of the doubt?

timmy's coming back tomorrow. he's so doodoo lah, he bought the specs and kept the receipt?! so we can't collect them for him although they've been ready since tuesday. HAHAR-

last night a bunch of ah bengs were making so much noise downstairs. last month a bunch of indian dudes had a bottle fight that lasted like 1 hour and the police had to drag them away. from the voiddeck to the carpark, back and forth in the rain. very drama, full view from my house.



yishun... gangstertopia.

uh, the week has been boring? mundane-ness. i feel a little bit like a zombie. a zombie who is trying to exercise more. starting this week i've been feeling the fats layering on my bod, it's quite freaky since i've been underweight until now. i wake up and tie my hair and see my arms flabbering? (!!!!!) so i'm working on cutting out snacks, teabreaks, post-teabreaks, suppers and post-suppers because, well they're not really necessary. and the trash i eat in between. i'm not dieting right? those aren't even meals so it's not counted as dieting. anyway i'm not the kind of person who can starve herself so no worries~ besides, i'm growing taller so that helps too. whoo grow grow! on top of fasting from non-meals i'm doing those lazy 10 min workouts and toning up with my dusty 5kgs. long time no see buddies.

i have just posted a whole post on fatness. Ha.

timmy fighting! lepperds jjang! :D

been a packed weekend.. super packed. friday timmay triumphantly reached home after his excursion (HA) to the disc. center. okay, i'm sorry for the blunt comment about tim's big fat head. i JUST woke up when he came through the gate so the first thing i saw was how huge his face looked with that big roooound skull planted above it. anyway, he gave us a photo session and started his non-stop talking. what, encik this encik that jonathan boray mark cheok muffin explosion, dunno what the nonsense lah. must say tho, it was very entertaining. oh especially the "perhaps love is a window..." part, wah priceless! spent the evening listening to him and trying to pinpoint what's changed about him physically. glad that he's made friends quickly. that's nice. :)

saturday was super busy? teens club, then lunch, help tim bargain for his new specs (the trick is in the tone i tell you, and don't call the seller uncle.), then choir, then visit mama at dialysis center, then go to dome for blessed glorious dinner (GOOD FOOD THAT DOME PLACE.) tim went home with daddy and i went jalan jalan with mommy. picked up a $15 dress (what a steal!! original price on the tag was $59 but they lie all the time about that, so.) went home and crashed after making a card for geil.

today was the usual-- church lunch home. jake bought me ice cream for moi anniversaire GAH that's so sweet, literally! it's still in the freezer at church but i'll get it tomorrow. was feeling wonkie so crashed until i was awoken by that blasting thunderstorm, then set off for pasir ris to be overbearing and embarrassing for our dear timmayyyyyy, AWW. i predicted that other parents would send their sons there too and i was right. there were hardly any boys alone there. after napping my hair was einstein bazooka style so i bunned it up like an ah-mah. we took a cab there since tim was IBS-ing and having some weird soldier mood-swings. (?) met up with my dad's mom there so she could see her shaven grandson.. she lives in pasir ris too so, just nice. got to meet some of tim's buddies but i can only remember, um, james? (LOL) because he's a GOOD good looker (just a fact, people) and i remember laughing at him cause his mummy was hugging him and all at tekong. oh and patrick. and... nope can't remember anyone else. there's that shy baba boy too but i forgot his name. tim was SO CUTE intro-ing all his friends to us without a tinge of embarrassment. that's the way boy! anyway, he'll be booking out on saturday. tim fighting! read my blog when you can! honeymoon is over so brace y'self! GO LEOPARDS! boy i hope james doesn't read this. paiseh to the max.

fotos!
why is tim better-looking than me?!

boshi da!

ugh i think i just sneezed or sth. tsk who took this?!

totally posing. pfft~ hana hamson lah, hamson.

LOL. it probably migrated back to hawaii or something by now.

EH SO CUTE ! some cookies we made at the art class. we're playing with them/eating them after the kids left. ^^
this is the jamie-cookie.
super-cute yellow-eyed cookie and another naked (!) cookie.

the very-yummy looking one that i supposedly made for someone 'special'. ate it up myself in the end hahar~

last night i battled it out with a roach in the kitchen. everyone was already sleeping so i couldn't scream for help and hide as is the usual roach-procedure for me. i grabbed the baygon and destroyed the fella all by myself. it die die didn't die lah, and i kept spraying until there was a pool of insecticide on the floor. ehheh.

wow, haven't blogged about a few things. um, first up, geil's sweet treat last friday. marc was there too. went to gelare and had sandwiches for lunchie. and the beloved milkshakes too, of course. that was after the first day of art class. thanks darlings!

aha cross-eyed.

tried drawing kristen stewart. yes? no? maybe? (lookalike-ness) i kinda got the spacing and sizes (everything except the shading) wrong so that's why it doesn't look exactly like her. you know who i realized it looks like? jean-baptiste maunier. (a guy)
T-T

i don't think i'll enter this into the competition. unless it looks better when it's completed. if i complete it. :D

boo i have to watch 2days 1night by myself tonight. there used to be the timmy who'd always be laughing more exaggeratedly than me so at least i didn't look so idiotic but NOW I'M LEFT TO LAUGH ALONE. with bran, but he's a dog so he doesn't get human jokes.

sighs.

i'm loosing the weight i painstakingly (i almost typed painsteakingly hahaha) gained? whas going on! papa deep-fry everything now!

I AGREED to go for the regional student convention thing that my dad keeps bugging me to go for (with the best of intentions of course, but i had my doubts initially.) whatever i'll just go. but i'll only participate in the art and maybe poetry since i have entries for both prepared already. (prepared.. pfft. more like lying around uselessly!) shall go see if i can win something, if not then nevermind i just come home and cry like a spoilsport. hah. i know nobody there and will have to stay there for 5 days all by myself. although my dad will come in the day, but, you know, staying overnight with people (some are WEIRD ppl) i don't know is not exactly an inviting idea. but i'll go! rarrh i have to stop thinking about it like i'm still deciding. i think i'll be fine.

it's in june so i plan on painting one nice masterpiece before then. but i need oil paint and canvasssss. maybe draw one or two more good faces. i'll enter the mom and baby pic for sure. i hope my roommate will be a nice person. =\

happy birthday to me!

planned to do schoolwork and then go visit mama, but mom took a half-day off just for me so i canceled school (whoo~) and went to meet her with daddy for lunch at novena. heehee, she wanted me to have korean food but i opped for thai instead. IT WAS SERIOUSLY YUM YUM parents went mad over how nice the food was. shopped around abit. i like shopping there.

went to see mama after novena. my uncle was there. (!!!!!) we waited for a while then went in quietly and he left. i hate the tension and all this stupid sibling conflict thing.. tim and i will never be like that. anyway, had a good time with mama talking and eating KFC. she totally ignored my hair and just wanted to know why i didn't wear her earrings this time. LOL. after a while she got sleepy and we went home after changing her daipers. :) on the way back we went to cold storage and grabbed a SERIOUSLY GOOD FROZEN CHEESECAKE. the brand's called Eli's and it is so good. bought a cake with 3 flavours. really, good solid stuff. came home for dinner and enjoyed the cake. i told them to just gimme a peck on the cheek and wish me instead of lighting candles and singing the song.. cause i thought that would be 100 times less awkward (right?).

then we got a msg (well mom got the msg) from the timmy saying his platoon or whatever got punished cause someone, but not him, messed up. aye, poor timmay! timmy fighting! anyway, i had a good sleep last night, partially because of the weather and partially cause i was so full with thai food and KFC and cake. hahar.

i still feel like my birthday's all over the place since we celebrated so early and kinda continued thereafter, so i shall treat the entire week like my birthday. (HAH) gonna go claim geil's promised milkshake treat on friday.

BTW i got a perm wheeeeee~ i couldn't wash my hair for a day (supposed to be 2 but i couldn't stand it) doubt it'll last long but i'll just enjoy it while it does lah.

tim went off yesterday AAAAAAH! haha, i'm pretty excited for him. it's good time he went in. anyway, nobody cried or anything and i got to see tekong! it just looks like one big secondary school full of men. to my surprise, the guys were betterlooking than i expected. EE was with us all the way. =) thanks EE.

came home and watched a show then crashed. timmy called at 9.40 or some late time like that leaving us in total suspense, why? because he wanted to bathe first. T_T"

he'll be home in 2 weeks, and he graduates from tekong on the 9th of june. timmy fighting! please be more muscley when you get back!

the whole family's gonna visit both grandmas tomorrow cause tim's going off on thursday. think we're gonna have a nice meal for my birthday too, for tim's sake again since he won't be here on the actual day. everything's kinda early this year. early present, early celebration. not that it's a bad thing.. just strange.

mom took the rest of the week off for.. tim AGAIN, lol. hope to spend more time with her, relax with her, help her not feel so sad about tim's leaving. wonder how tekong will be like. pretty excited to see it (honestly lah i know it sounds dumb.)

tim elbowed (?) my hairband and it broke. i'll go get a cheap one tomorrow.

oh, if you wanna get me something for my birfday but dunno what to get, -vouchers- is the word! gimme the wondrous gift of shopping whoo~! haha. but a nice sincere card would be just fine too.
i think i'm beginning to like seventeen more and more. it's a nice number. old but not so old, but older. :)

fighting!

my aunt brought me out shopping on thursday for my birthday! got this pretty pretty dress fron tangs and wore it on sunday. heehee. thanks EE!

on friday mommy bought me the lipstick i've been eyeing on from CASTLEDEW ! also for my birthday. just nice, there was a sale. :)

sat was normal. teens at BJ's, lunch at SSC, choir. had a nice cozy dinner with the family at home. i love cozy dinners with my family.. can't stand eating alone (which i hardly ever do). conversational topic of the week-- TIM'S NS.

was really happy in my dressie on sunday but kept reminding myself not to be so vain and to stop thinking about how nice i looked (HA). it's like super hypoctitical to go to church focusing on how i look right?
anyway, came home for lunch so as to not get my dress smelly with food smells, but of course i didn't tell anyone that was the reason for coming home to eat. heh, and then prepared for tim's army send off thing later in the evening. EE came with like a ton of prata and wonderful stuff (wow wow wow) and one by one the lovely people came with all da food! had some encouragement-saying time for timmy, thanking him for all his help and stuff. a little emo but not overboard. guess it's good for him, as in the send off thing. then he knows we're behind him all the way. i doubt he'll become some ah beng or paikia lah, won't right? hah.. thank you everybody. <3
tim will be going in on thursday! YAHHH that's soon! now i'll have to do the dishes and clear bran's poopie everyday what is this no no no!!

bran bran gets scared and shivery when it thunders. he must hate these days...

army boy loving his hair. :) now he's like our official drink payer. poor thing!

took pics of mama yesterday. she was so super talkative and FUNNY? LOL. thank God she's not so depressed or sad. we bought dinner and ate with her. then mommy and i went back to her bed to change her diapers cause she pooped. the whole week mama had been waiting to show me a pair of earrings she got. "pretty right?" she kept asking me. then i asked her,"for me?" and she answered,"NO. i lend you then after you wear you return to me."
HAHAHAHAHA. mama so cute lah!

she's really shrunken. even her once-humongous nose looked small yesterday. shall go see her again tomorrow with timmy too. wah, the 854 ride is so long and pukey. tim faster buy car!

quick summary of the unblogged days.

friday i had a horrib headache. killer! didn't go away even after i took 2 panadol and napped. mom came back from work and gave me stronger meds.

saturday i was totally fine. ponstan is a wonder! had teens club at BJ's place. bought breakfast and met tim and litming at the mrt to take a train there. glad that litming's coming. ^^ he's a nice boy. ate at BK after teens, went to church for choir, and came home.

sunday was the same. church and lunch. the messages were very encouraging. :) oh, mister jake came! been like 10 years since we last saw him? (exaggerate) and he now has actual real hair! hahah, been looking at him bald since he went into army so it's strange to see him with a spikey do yesterday. a bunch of us had lunch together at SSC and went home. well, mom wanted to go to guardian before going home so i accompanied her.

last night i was feeling so sad because of gran. really want her to come home. was imagining how abandoned she feels there. you know how when you lie down on the bed and it's quiet and all, you start thinking non-stop and suddenly become very emo? no? it's just me? fine. anyway, i was crying so much (!) and today i woke up as a goldfish. 0.0

i shall go see gran today.

after school yesterday i studied my korean like MAD trying to memorize all the colors and days and blah blah for the test. kate (another student) took the test with me, and we were quite worried that it would be super difficult and we'd fail or something.
IN THE END IT WAS SUPER EASY LAH. 16 questions! (!!!) and we were given 40 mins? (!!!!) we finished it in 10 mins and spent another 10 mins listening to the next door class before we passed it up and went home. it's funny that the lady who was at the counter let us take the test in the same room without any supervision or anything. kate was joking, we take out book and see also nobody know... HA. of course we didn't lah. don't even need to refer. :D

came home and watched 2D1N whooo~! and this morning i tried to wake tim up but he was dead as a log so i tickled him and he kicked me. so pain. feel like pouring a thousand cockroaches on him.

thank God it's been raining! so niiiiice. geil and i were having pretty bad days yesterday, but i think today's better. =) still, i have to take a whole bunch of tests this week and that's pretty annoying. today i studied until 6 (!) to finish up more work.

i look like a pandaaaaa. arrh~

samuel msged me saying he can't take the basic level exam thing with me because of his cross-country. sighs.

this mind of mine is in a big fat mess! =( what in the world happened today?


AAAAAAAAAAAAAH.

making a CHINESE birthday card now for someone who requested. will ask my dad to print out the words, HAHAH.

really really considering the australia thing. God, what am i supposed to do? i have one year to think...

today bran bran pooped in front of the neighbor's gate while tim was watering the plants. (!!!!) he cleaned it up just as they were coming home. don't think they saw anything. phew~

having a tricky time thinking about the story. the language thing is a big problem. should my grandma speak english or peranakan?? (in the story.) of course english right? guess i'll have to peranakanize the english.. give it the same kick peranakan sounds like. kee.. ^^ ah it's irritating, everyday i feel like rewriting what i wrote the previous day. :|

i shall go bathe for the hundredth time today. bye bye.

i posted up a story on a new blog i set up. hope it lasts.. i foresee it being deleted after stagnating for a few months. bashia~! i'll try my best to keep it alive. it hasn't gotten to the body of the story yet so don't be quick to judge just yet yah? go find the link on the right column there -->

my brain is so tired i can't wait for 2days 1night tonight. lee su-geun digs for ark shells at 2AM HILARIOUS. i want to just sit back and laugh.

anyways i'm so hungry i think i'm digesting my tired brain up. better go search for food. hahah.
anyong!

THE dinner for bro richie and sis rowena. THE dinner. =(

i can't remember what was so funny to me and so lame to geil. HMM,

batmannnnn, dadadadada~ batmannnn...

really was a BBQ. kids on a stick.. geil on a grill. =D

supposed to look like i'm surfing but it just makes my hands and legs look not proportionate.

plastic surgery with a torn piece of junk food wrapper. by psycho scientist (aggie) and her Igor (marc).

monging out at the playground.

writing cards for bro richie and sis rowena. i can advertise for asiance.

pants dropping??

THA FOOOOOOOD but i was too full to eat. AW~

bye bye micahgeilphoebe happy valentines to you too~

P.S.- i know i'm always wearing THAT tshirt!! i just like it so much. don't make fun of me pleeese. sengyoo.

suffering from massive breakout for some reason, i'm thinking the barbecue weather. skipped the badminton game on sunday cause i needed to come home and crash. =( was really tired. it looked so fun! timmy showed me the pics. aw~

found a makeup brand called castledew by VOV. the colors are fantastic! officially my fav brand.

gonna take a shower now. 'sup with the weather man?! rarrh.

FRIDAY.
coke is better.

mom took MC again. =( aging stinks. was feeling really whoosh when i woke up in the morning, had this bad headache. tim was down with the flu too. did lesser school work for that day. ate dinner with timmy and went for SG at BJ's place since his leg is so not usable now.

SATURDAY.
went to BJ's again for teens club. um, we watched that kids' show called ben the baker, how nostalgic is that lah! i immediately recalled that theme song they use for the intro. hah. after that i went to eat lunch with geil and the two boys, and tim's ezlink ran out of money so he just joined us in the end since we were eating near the MRT and he had to top up his card. (poor fella got so embarrassed on the bus. that didididid sound and the bus uncle's stare. tsktsk.) went for choir, then went to ah mah's birthday dinner, then went to yishun sapphire for another dinner thing. wowsuchalongdayyyyy. i am tired.

that studying overseas thing is really a big fat block of thought in my mind right now. geil and i were talking about it on friday. she might go to the philippines and i might be shipped off to australia. for many years. *cry*
sighs. goodnight lah.

mama making another funny face for me. hahah. we dressed her up and brought her out to a not-so-nearby-but-nearest coffeeshop for dinner on sunday. :) she's alright physically, but she's not happy there. i dunno what to do...

today's BJ's operation day! everybody please pray for speedy recovery and the family. BJ fightingg!!

valentine's is coming. i shall spend it celebrating my ah mah's birthday with my dad's family. no boyfriend in the equation. SIGHS. isn't valentine's day some kind of pagan thing anyway? (haha yah condemn it since i can't enjoy it)

AH i lost my internet and TV and phone connections for 2 days! because the modam thingy fried on us. anyway, it's all back! THANK GOD. the worse part was that i was watching a long awaited episode of family outing halfway when the connection went berserk. (YAAAAAAAAH!) the frustration..

SATURDAY--after teens club geil and i went for lunch, then to daiso. after that, momma joined us for choir practice. then, she wanted to go to daiso AGAIN. i am officially quite sick of daiso, BUT there are some things that i really want. these super cute porcelean angels that i saw at the gifts section.. i have a weakness when it comes to angel ornaments. if they're still there when i go back i'll probably buy them. keehee~

came home and made alot of small valentines day cards with the stuff i bought from daiso. planned to sell them on the art blog that has been so forsaken, but then the modam problem came up, so i'll just use them myself. (ha.)

planned the lesson and craft stuff for the kids since it was my turn to teach chapel and ZZZZZd.

some pretty cute sponges geil and i saw. makes you happy while you wash the dishes, if that's possible.

kopi break with momma.

compare them to my thumb.

RRRARH superman specs!!!

how tall did you grow? um, i dunno~

(????????) we should make people wear these out as a dare, or forfeit.

took this at northpoint. are we THAT stupid?

mommy was feeling pretty bad yesterday so she took MC and went to the polyclinic with daddy. asthma! she's been having it for a while.. you can hear her airway constricted when she breathes sometimes. anyway she had a good rest. in the evening we went to get our hair cut together. keehee~ i made sure the lady chopped off alot of hair, but when i went back home daddy said i looked the same. (daddy being daddy.) anyways, i got it cut to snip off those split ends.. not cause i wanted it shorter or anything. and also to accompany mommay. ^^

went to bed early last night and dreamt about going to teh han min guk. :))
fighting~!

yesterday was the last lesson. teacher bought a cake. hahah. we had to go down to the coffeeshop to eat it.

the bunch of us may be continuing lessons with him but it will be more like a private tuition thing because he's not teaching there anymore, and everyone is busy with school. i went to the neighboring language center to check out the prices and schedule.. and the lady didn't really wanna give me a definite price. why? she explained very politely, but to the effect that i may be a teacher spy from another center. T_T" --okay. anyway i found out later from chelsea, who also inquired, that it's around 300 bucks. :O the teacher offered to teach us at a much lower price. so, dunno. not-confirmed status. :D

met uncle sam ang at bukit gombak on the way home to collect the 12 bucks he's been owing me for ages. hah. he say i preety leh! heee heee~ *exaggerated shy laugh* no lah, just that we've known each other since babyhood so i guess i look a little different now. was nice seeing him again. i know i've grown taller. aha~

came home pretty late cause of the cake and waiting for sam. watch our beloved 2DAYS1NIGHT with timmay!!!! GAH it's so funny.

today wasn't a nice day. just so.. dreary and so.. not nice. and the fake rain, wha~ there's that smell of rain coming and the humidity of a nice shower, but no rain. the sky even darkens! i must not believe nature so easily and get my hopes up like that. moving on...

i need money to take that exam for the korean basic level tomorrowwwww, and i can't bear to use my angpao money. TSK. will just panic and grab the money one minute before i leave tomorrow, so i won't think so much about it. =( 10 weeks have passed so fast. *sighs*

just now i was drawing this guy called kim junsu. ( i have the feeling you're gonna google him in about four seconds.) he looks really (really) cute, but his face is SO HARD TO DRAW. i realized masculine guys are easier to draw than cute guys. (face, not personality lah.) anyway i did a reasonable job and it looks quite like him. ^^although i drew his head too high and his hair got cut off. heheh. i spent my evening doing that since i wasn't feeling too cheery.

goodnight evezyboday be happy and don't drool.
actually, it's not like it's controllable right? hey i just realized controllable got double L !
fighting~

visited mama after visiting our my grandaunt after church just now. LONG DAY! mama's alright, just very lethargic. still trying to persuade her to come stay with us. matters of the heart... complicated. EE went too. HAPPY BIRTHDAY EE! hope you like the card. :D

oh and look what i saw at guardian. (!!!!!) a stroke away from being me. HAHAR~ boyah!
