everytime i turned on my computer
i saw a pink wallpaper with 3 huge powerpuff girls
staring back at me with that strange ugly eyes
though i never had a liking for powerpuff girls
i found it comforting to see them on my wallpaper
in times when i upset or depressed,
they (powerpuff girls) never fail to remind me the happier times when SHE is around
they never fail to remind me the fact that SHE will be back soon and everything will be fine again
i cant decide whether i love her more or i miss her more.

i am so screwed in my studies, but then again, what's new?!

my mock exams start tomorrow and i
havent even started preparing yet!
i am still rotting and slacking somewhere
and simply put, in no mood to study
but i guess i should turn up for the paper at least...
courage courage and courage
i am so going to fail miserably... -_-'

giving credit to him for such a memorable experience. Posted by Picasa


a wonderful day spent in changi exhibition centre...
the truth is i wasnt even keen to go in the first place! i called fel when she was at the exhibition and the excitment in her voice sparked quite a bit of interest in me. anyway, thanx to ben's sis, i got in on a trade day free of charge! which is like saving $50.
anyway, it was SO COOL.. i never knew planes could be this interesting.... and i never knew that there were so many companies in the aero-industry. (and there were many many hot, handsome, cute guys whom i figured they were either rich or super rich)haha
we even got on a private jet to see how was it like... i tell you, it makes you wanna be a millionaire or marry one... it was awesome! so cosy and lovely, completed with sofas and bed... nothing like those commercial planes at all! and the pilots' seats were furry and light PINK!
and i got to see the planes taking off within a kilometre. you know how the closest you could ever get is the viewing mall but viewing planes on the ground is another story....!
=) took 5 hours in total walking around the whole exhibition area... and still cannot believe this. a cab from changi exhibiton centre has a surcharge of $10. !@#$%^&*! $10! and even it was so close to the airport, our cab fare was a shocking $19.40! !@#$%^&*!
anyway, i am glad i was there. =)
here are one of the few photos that i took... out of courtesy and respect, my companion can appear twice on my blog! =)
psst, the other thing i enjoyed was looking smart in my blouse and pants... even khairi (yup, i saw him there, in police uniform!) thought we were working there! hah!



see that plane in the background? our favourite! Posted by Picasa



manage to catch a shot of a plane taking off. and it is SIA! Posted by Picasa



inside this tiny jet... complete with real nice and comforting sofa and a bed... i wanna marry a man with a private jet!!! Posted by Picasa



one of the many displays of helicopters and planes... which started this craze in my mind, "i want to collect toy planes!" Posted by Picasa

so much for commenting about the fact that i havent seen a non air conditioned bus for ages yesterday
i saw one today
and it is a double decker bus too!
=)
and i saw yvonne today at an unholy hour in town. but i guess i wish i had been in contact with her more... the awkwardness we had between us when we had one of those hibye chat... urgh... but was it really my fault that we grew apart?
anyway,
for the record, purple window panes are really ugly.

i am discovering myself amidst chaos
i spent my last two weeks out with people who mean the world to me
ironically, i also offended some people, i think

to mandy dearest,
thanx for the lovely time in town and around
thanx for driving me in and out (sending me home)
i was reminded the good old days in ij where we used to hang around
time passed so fast when i was with you
and yes, i have SO much to catch up now,
but even then, i still wish i had spent more time with you
i miss you.

i got to know someone really well today
and i discovered that we had many things in common
from the way we behave the kind of ill friends we have and how we deal with them
i am astonished
i am still mulling over this '... should enlarge your social circle...'
what if i am really REALLY happy with what i have and i dont have energy for accquaintants
hmmm.

i am slowly but surely losing my mind
faces that i dont want to see keep appearing
things that i dont want to hear keep repeating
and it is so irritating.
i know there is a message beneath all these
but i just cant figure it out

my patience is running thin
and my tolerance is zero
i will snap at anyone and everyone if provoked
violence is my cup of tea now

i cant be that busy... my com was left untouched and unnoticed for 4days?
anyway, CNY was, well rather, predicted. watched You've got mail, Cast away, As Good as it gets, The pianist and Hercules and i realised something common between these movies.
tom hanks from You've got mail and Cast Away
helen hunt from As good as it gets and Cast Away
and of course i realised, my current favourite actor thomas kretschmann, acted in the pianist! oh, if his name rings no bell to you, he was the captain in the king kong movie. i love his eyes... and i also realised that adrien brody who was the lead in the pianist, also acted in the king kong movie... haha, my movie links.
......
my fridge broke down. seriously. it stopped producing ice on monday, so, we could only think of mustafa... actually, no one wanted to buy a new fridge cos it aint worth it, considering we might move in a year or two's time. what to do?
......
i realised that i lived in a very small world. every chinese new year makes me feel a little lonlier. my relatives are back in hong kong and china... needless to say, i have never met those in china and i dont think i ever will want to meet them too. it's just us, 4 of us. and then i was thinking, i dont have that many friends. i think i can count up to 10 (those who are close to me) 20 (those who are close enough not to be classified under hi-bye kind) and tada, my circle of life. and no, i am not bitter, in fact, i am happy.
this weekend was a little getaway for my family. i enjoyed it so much that i wished it would never end. yes, my parents as usual argued over silly nonsense BUT it is like part of us already.
i realised that i had missed out alot on building ties with my family. think time is running out too. i wish i had spent more time with them... => i guess, it aint too late to start now huh?
Gong Xi Fa Cai!
