wise up now or pay the cost

i met my neighbour on the bus yesterday. i don't talk to neighbours, maybe coz we were never that close and i think i don't gain anything by talking to them. i think the fact that my father's friendly enough to all neighbours is good enough already.

anyway, since we were like so close to each other on the bus, we started talking. super awkward, coz the conversation was all about knowing each other's family all over again. like excuse me, she was already supposed to know that i'm the eldest in the family!!

ok the fact that she asked me whether i was eldest in the family was still not so bad. if that shows that our relationship as neighbours suck, wait till this.

me: so just got back from work?
her: yeah...erm you do know that i don't live there anymore right?
me: huh, oh! you don't live opposite us anymore?
her: erm yeah, like *start counting* 6 months?? yeah, half a year already.
me: oh! *embarrassed already* so only your parents live there now?
her: oh they are actually my parents-in-law.
me: oh yeah yeah... *gosh*



telekong-shopping part 1 was a failure, boo.

you're my sunshine when my mind gets clouded

tuesday was good. told y'all.

if anybody wants to watch Make It Happen, please please please, just rent a dvd. don't buy, rent. take it from someone who cares.

and if you don't know that there is such a movie, then forget it, don't bother finding out.

i spent $27.90 on food today. seriously shimah, just because pay was out like 2 days ago, doesn't mean can splurge like that! think hari raya, think nice nice clothes, think nice nice treats :)

old as ancient skies, had at these wandering eyes

this year's VMAs was all about britney. she clinched 3 awards, awesome man! i really really hope this is the beginning of a successful comeback.





and frankly, i don't see what's the problem with the brothers wanting to wear purity rings. i think they deserve some form of respect atleast.




anyway, the song "Inside Of You" is really good people. it might sound familiar to some coz it was in the soundtracks of Forgetting Sarah Marshall.

once in awhile, we come across a song that just reaches the heart and make you go awww...this is definitely that kinda song.

and we all don't need to know who sang it. loving the song is good enough :)




i want to have a baby but not exactly by having a baby, gettit?

painting all my dreams the color of your smile

CAMP ROCK vs HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL

disney movies generally have the same basic storylines. the typical "boy meets girl/struggle with oneself/trying to fit in the norm/then realising that it's better being just you" ritual.

so well, camp rock is no different. besides the fact that i think demi lovato smiles a bit too widely, that i think the sides of mouth is going to tear and she's going to be the next Joker but nicer...well, then yeah camp rock is really not that bad.

most people around me say that disney movies are for kids/waste of time/typical storylines. ok maybe partly true, but they are still entertaining! and i'm sure some of them do watch but they have all this talk coz they wanna be "cool" and "mature".

reminds me of a colleague who was so against me playing jonas brothers songs at the workplace. next thing i know, she was singing to the chorus of sos. haha, hmm.

Storyline
hands down, i will agree with mira and say that camp rock has a way better storyline. and the characters don't irritate me so much like some *ehem troy ehem* hsm *ehem gabriella ehem* characters.

Choreography
i'm on hsm's side here. i really can't understand the choreography in camp rock at all. even the dance numbers like "hasta la vista", "too cool" and "we rock" left me clueless and uninspired. those over the top ryan&sharpay performances are way way better.

kevin is really funny. and that's why i think i like him better than nick though everybody is so into nick for his cute looks. he looks like adam lamberg, better known as "gordo" in lizzie mcguire, for goodness sake!

now, i'm just waiting for the VMAs. britney, please perform on the show :)



tuesday is going to be a good day
i think
i know
i hope
i can't wait

so scream you, out from behind the bitter ache

i want my fringe back.
i want to trim my hair.
i want to style me hair hot.
i want sining's hair (who cares if her hair is 50% fake!)

to hell with priyanka chopra's voluminous hair, boo.



i'm Scoopy X people. shit man, there's a complaint against me. oh wells! *shrugs*

i don't like her in any way possible. don't like to see her at work, don't like to joke with her (never liked anyway), don't like to have any form of communication with her. boo her!




funny as it sounds, i need to go telekong shopping!!! :D

to rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons

i love long bus rides! frankly, i don't know when i started liking it. i think i have cultivated that habit for a long time now. when exactly? god knows. but all i can remember is that long bus rides are just so...comforting!

i mean, you just sit there, look outside, listen to music, stone maybe??...it's pretty relaxing! and the plus plus point? you get to explore areas of singapore that you never knew existed!...ok, maybe it doesn't sound as interesting as i find them, but heck! everybody should try it once in awhile. it helps, especially when you just wanna emo maybe, or trying to find a solution to a problem.

ok but, you have to be willing to spend hours (sometimes literally) on the bus. i have no idea why, but that fact never seems to bother me. ok maybe once - when i took 66 from bedok all the way to jurong east. that horrible bus ride lasted more than 2 hours. horrors. i have no idea how the paternal grandmother endures that. ok digressed...

basically, for a person to enjoy the long bus rides, you have to be like me...the "relek one corner" kind. i don't mind wasting time on bus rides. for those typical singaporeans who always rush here and there, i'll suggest you just keep to your normal mrt and cabs, hmm.

but one thing i will always remember about long bus rides is the bus rides with you.

197. bugis. jurong east.

priceless.

and babe, i miss getting lost again, weirdly as it sounds.

i'm hot, you're cold

i have been fasting for like what, a decade already now? yeah, around there. but frankly, this year will offcially win the "Hardest first fasting day ever" award.


there were so many instances where i would almost reach out for a waffle/brownie/cookie/icecream (and even banana!) but then upon touching it will suddenly occur to me that i was fasting.


and it didn't help at all when melvin from canele came to give us a box of macarons! check this out. i think they are so pretty :)


and once again, i almost reach out for one of them before the true hard fact hit me on the forehead again, bam!


nevertheless, i saved one and put it in a plastic bag, which i later ate after breaking fast.


macarons are nice, but can we have pasta now?
