idiocyncracy

get outta my head..
get outta my life..
get outta me..

last monday i went to jurong island for work.. how troublesome.. the exchanging of passes.. the crazy long journey from clementi to jurong island.. the lack of greenery in jurong island... the lack of smiles as well.. its a depressing place.. i wun ever work in such environment ever.. regardless of the paycheck... there's too much at stake. lol

the slackiest so far! there werent any sign-ups and we talked from 10 till 430.. with naps in between.. the mee rebus was delicious and damn cheap tho(1.50 like primary sch canteen).. at least there is something to look forward to for these workers.. lol
we exchanged horror bgr stories.. and i realise we had a wise r/s guru here.. tho he doesnt resemble an expert.. excuse me but yah...

then we went back.. along the way we had to declare our items.. and the guy in charge is a cute malay gay.. hes really nice..he sympathised with us.. how sweet of him..given someone else.. ...
yet another one to reinforce my perception-all gays are nice guys..

tues- i worked at this place with interesting architecture..
its at simei and it has depressing surroundings.. cuz each individual cubicle has walls that are like 2 metres high and its pretty obvious if you walk over to your colleagues desk.. its damn quiet and super chit-chat-unfrenly.. thank goodness there's email. and i cannot imagine office sex here.

then we all, being bored.. played bingo..
once a while we gotta fence off buzzing silly customers with scathing sacarstic stinging remarks cuz they cannot get the deals their way.. how horrid.

after the roadshow is over.. we were driven back to the mrt by our in-charge.. then along the way i met this guy from this insurance company.. (NOT ANOTHER ONE) you noe those irritants who try to convince you to deposit money with them.. and then make you think it is a good investment.. sorry but im a poor student who feels like she needs to eat beans everyday to make ends meet..peas for some days for some variety.. you've got the wrong person mate.
but i notice the change in their approach.. i was rather taken aback.. y? cuz the questionaire was irrelevant! it said nothing about investing, mentioned nothing about savings and the like. it made me give hp no.(a must.. thats how those pests contact you) and just ask me simply where do i usually go to do my xmas shopping..what a soft sweet unagressive approach. unlike the past.. whereby this guy tried to stop us.. then i said im not interested and i walked past and he said in an angry tone :'' y did you not even give me a chance!'' which turned me off.. and then afer the questionaire they simply shook hands and i walked off.. the next day they called me to schedule for an appointment.. i just said ive got no time... and asked them what will it be about can we just do it over the phone..then the dumb girl retorted : '' im not sure.. cuz im contacting you via third party and i dunno what's on his agenda''
what a smart choice of words.
of course i told her str8 i am not interested and have a good day!


wednesday- met up with xian.. had a full meal at this indonesian restaurant on the third floor of lucky plaza.. hm.. i missed the avocado drink..it looks like chocolate with plenty of mint cream and i guess thats how i was attracted to it in the first place..lol.. grilled chicken was delicious and the sour soup was a so-so.. it was not sour but sweet.. i think its a printing error on the menu. lol and we had chips.. i still think the indian chips i had at lagnaa restaurant is the best! :)

orchard road was flooded.. with people and rain.
and then we head to mango, zara and guess for some light shopping.. duncha think guess has a lotta mama-san clothes?
somehow i tink the line is blurred between
i bought a pair of skinny jeans.. it felt good.. this is my 2nd pair of mango jeans.. still, i dream of the day when i can just buy 5 pairs of G-star jeans in one go and not feel anything.

after that we had a little ice cream at the roadside.. sat at those stoned seats along orchard road..
and watch the crowd.. tonnes of ppl took pictures of the decorations.. some were singaporeans.. man.. these ppl sure have no life.. whats so great about the simple decor.. i can so imagine them being old and telling their grandchildren the days of their lives.. and showing them pictures of decorations in orchard road every year and their grandchildren stifling their yawns.

and we talked and talked and headed home after that ..

thursday i had my bout of ktv with a bunch of jc mates..
happy I..N...G !
and lunch in pizza hut.. mm..

and dinner in mosburger and lotsa shopping in marina..
suddenly i missed those boliao jc days where we were all lazy and crapped our way thru the days..
i missed the camaderie!
those sweet darlings helped me with my shopping dilemma..

friday i went ard town again..

saturday i celebrated christmas potluck with a bunch of sweeties and exchanged pressies as well.. somehow i feel very xin fu!lol almond longan, green curry, japanese crispy chicken, baked wasabi prawns, pasta...yummy! very satisfying.. beats any renown fare..its heartwarming..lol im so emo!!

its the simplest things that makes me happy. cliche but true.

and i realise something as the day passed.
giving gives the giver a greater joy than receiving..

after tat i headed to town to meet peipei
i bought a pair of GOLD shoes in far east and we had korean dinner in food republic.. the rice cakes were delicious and fantabulously spicy.. omg heavenly!

kimchi kimchi! kimchi kimchi!


sunday i had a christmas lunch with my family.. and lotsa red wine.. mm....

Every little thing that you say or do
I'm hung up, I'm hung up on you
Waiting for your call, baby, night and day
I'm fed up,
I'm tired of waiting on you

Time goes by so slowly for those who wait
No time to hesitate
Those who run seem to have all the fun
I'm caught up, I don't know what to do
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
I don't know what to do

Ring ring ring goes the telephone
The lights are on but there's no one home
Tick tick tock it's a quarter to two
And I'm done, I'm hanging up on you

I can't keep on waiting for you
I know that you're still hesitating
Don't cry for me 'cause I'll find my way
You'll wake up one day, but it'll be too late
Every little thing, every little thing
I'm hung up, I'm hung up on you
Waiting for your call, waiting for your call
I'm fed up,
I'm tired of waiting on you

Time goes by so slowly
So slowly
So, I don't know what to do
Every little thing, every little thing
I'm hung up, I'm hung up on you
Waiting for your call, waiting for your call
I'm fed up, I'm tired of waiting on you(fade out)

If I were a painter
I would paint my reverie
If that's the only way for you to be with me
We'd be there together
Just like we used to be
Underneath the swirling skies for all to see
And I'm dreaming of a place
Where I could see your face
And I think my brush would take me there
But only ...If I were a painter
And could paint a memory
I'd climb inside the swirling skies to be with you
I'd climb inside the skies to be with you....

im feeling emo emo emo emo.. so much rain these days it din help..

broken broken broken we all are
broken dolls and messed up hearts
silly games and violet lies

promise me promise you
promises we made
conjured feelings
make-up pictures
when will it all stop?

the spirals of tragedies
oh, foolish pride
come to me darling
make it all stop.

i can still remember my first birthday present. Its a box of colour paints.. i got it when i was four. i remember the acrid smell when i opened the wrapper.. and i can vaguely recall how puzzled i was when i uncovered the present... how funny it looked. metal tubes..all the different colours.. i tot it was food.. lol so typical of me..

well.. turned out that all these various tubes of ''food'' were lotsa fun!

i painted and painted and painted.. and drew and drew and drew...so that i can paint and paint and paint...

paint, i did..

paint.. on the floor, i did that too..



***

when i was a little girl.. i made my mommy drew pictures of ppl for me..

until she got tired...lol

after all these years of fights..

when i recall these stuffs..
that even when my heart was torn and broken and leaden and shredded and numbed and stoned..

somehow..
when i tink of her.. something pulls at my heartstrings..

i dunno what is it about sentosa.. but for every stage of the journey we seemed to be always rushing for the bus..

lol

everytime we reached a particular part we din get to wait for the bus.. we just reached there.. the bus is moving off..far far away i waved to the uncle ...he stopped.. we got on..it was comical

if only this works for SBS buses.

thurs -worked at LTA.. at suntec tower 3... the most comfortable setting with the most enjoyable colleague.. CINDY! lol.. coincentally crapping in the toilet together, creating verbal crap and physical crap.. omgosh.. damn funny.. it wouldnt be nice to reproduce the same crap here ;) ''PLU'' ''ugly hands association''

she mentioned something with which i dunno somehow why sorta stuck in my head
''it will take more than tonnes of coffee to get me depressed...''

and we keep 'koping' free ice creams from citibank at the roadshow.. i had 4 cornetto ice cream cones.. all different flavours.. this amount pales in comparison to the other roadshow promoters.. omgosh desserts has this cheery effect.. everything is free there.. even kachang puteh.. they had the typical company drinks machine in the pantry.. japanese green tea expresso.. you name it.. we brew it.. that explains why i got a slight tunmmy upset.. lol

after that i headed down to sentosa siloso beach resort rooftop garden suite for kimbo's party..
the gorgeous rooftop jacuzzi ..i remember kim's tiara dropped into the pool and super mickey saved the day.. gropping abt..lol and the lovely rattan chairs.. the perfect chill out setting with beloved babes.. its lovely with you guys.. so absolutely fucking lovely with you all .. with the best finger food ard.. i had so much raspberry and mango cheesecake also known as creamy yoghurt.. and the fondue and the cheese dip the cheese dip.. wooo! the fondue chocolate was like we had at aaron's.. it was cosy.. the so called mini soccer match lol heads only.. so easily entertained lol.. the retreat to the toilet .. everyone hada good time.. jas and me squatting down.. everyone so pink cept me lol.. im a yeellloow yellowww dirty fellow... and i met fellow piece of shit jonana! the worlds so small

the way home with angela..
it was deja vu...
same fren.. same journey..
but its different somehow..
and kinda sad.. i dunno how to explain this sadness..
like saltiness grazing the tip of a glass of margarita

btw ive got a qn..

And randomly scare the hell outta asians by striking up a conversation outta nowhere.

PROMISE ME YOU'LL REMEMBER
Harry Connick Jr.

Promise me you'll remember
This love together today
We may not have tomorrow
It's not for us to say
Fate isn't kind to lovers
It break the hardest heart
Promise me you'll remember
How good we are
Why do I find the sadness
Under your sweetest kiss
Destiny seems to whisper
It won't stay like this

When wherever we're together
I feel time standing still
I only know I love you
And I always will
If we should lose each other
Somewhere inside the dark
Promise me you'll remember
How good we are

Time isn't kind to lovers
It breaks the hardest heart
Promise me you'll remember
How good we are

from the movie Les Poupees Russes

Xavier: When I think about all the girls I've known or desired, they're like a bunch of Russian dolls. We spend our lives playing the game, dying to know who'll be the last. The teeny-tiny one, hidden inside all the others. You can't get to her right away. You will have to follow the progression. You have to open them, one by one, wondering, "Is she the last?"

watched alotta films lately..

and musicals on tee vee

on moonlight bay
the professional.

pls catch them...they are pretty good!

so much happened... so many things and my head is reeling.. im so lacking of sleep im surprised im still walking talking and singing...

went to ben's bd party.. it was pretty much a chill out affair.. rather cosy and nice.. too bad my class were busy singing in the ktv in his condo that we missed out the tossing-of-Ben-n-gf to pool!

gorgeous nice bedroom with a such a top of the world view.. and such great facilities!! chill-out chill ouuuut... with such skyline views...reminds me of the Donald trump properties.. i dream of this scene chilling out in my room with wine in glass in my hand and looking out of my window pondering about my last billion that i made recently..

omg and i went wala wala last last week .. i still tink wine is my thing.. no more vodkas(with the exception of vodka redbull), rum or cocktails. had half a pizza... i swear im on my way to fatty bom bom land.. and im chilling out with moses lim soon.
the music is really good and i tink i have a crush on the singer..
ive always dreamed of dating a rockstar with the gruffiest voice and the darkest eyes and the gentlest manner and devil-may-care attitude with a harley davidson.

holland v is such a beautiful place...

i watched The Godfather Trilogy recently.. its the best! so intense so hot! marlon brando's cold bloodedness.. omg sent chills down my spine.. give me my al pacino and marlon brando anytime! anytime! spirits and cigar and guns! everything is done so swift and yet everyone has such a lazy manner.. suddenly the mafia seemed so cool to me.



i finally tried the wanton mee at sunshine plaza!!! we wanted to eat the custard buns again but it was sold out by early afternoon..ever since the dim sum place got on tv.. the dim sum place was never the same again!

so we were dissapointed because we din get to eat our custard bun buns and decided to have our cravings satisfied in this dessert place near bugis shopping centre! YUM.. we bought 4 flavours.. water chestnut paste with egg.. hong kong style vanilla ice cream topped with fat tasty red beans.. refreshing mango paste which is not too sweet (and thats the best part) and some other desssert.. so the four of us.. rotated the bowls constantly and the waitress walked past with a weird look on her face haha.. but its really good... this way we dun get sick since we had variety.. haha.. ard the corner theres also nice kway chap and laksa..

speaking of food.. today.. sharon was telling me that in smu they have a gourmet club whereby every weekend they try out different eateries.. omg.. i tink im a suitable candidate.. i love food so much im such a foodie.. unknowingly i eat while i tok on the fone.. i only realised when my frens remarked that how come im always eating in my phone conversations..

last friday i was at clarke quay.. and so wanted to eat at cafe iguana.. but it was so damn crowded .. we got on the waiting list and waited at the bridge and watched the boats pass by...some mad scottish drunken guy came up to us.. and asked us if we wanna be frens..yick.
we waited so long so madly starved...we went to check with them again they said they called us bbut no one answered and then the manager got my no. down.. and we waited for so long we went riverside indonesian restaurant instead.. yummy seafood fried rice! and then on our way back we passed by cafe iguana. i had a pissed look on my face of coz and they called us back, gave us a table and gave us free generous bowl of warm chips and salsa hot dip..cafe iguana is pretty known for their margaritas.. but i got tequila shots instead.. the crowd is hot too.. i feel so out there cuz i went from sch ... they had young expatriates.. hot singaporean girls and guys... and beautiful ang moh model like girls.. i feel inadequate in dressing even tho its just a frigging CAFE! hello!!!
just 2 shots in and i was reeling.. lol.. damn i gotta be careful.. taxi-ed again.. oh i love clarke quay..

boat quay as well.. so many nice eateries along raffles place and tanjong pagar and toward chinatown.. all the shophouses so charming!!

i have yet to go check attica out.. !


yesterday after work in LTA building at Little India on my way home this old man came up to me and my colleague and asked my if ive got change.. i shook my head no.. passed by him and guess wat..he followed us! OMG! we sorta walked and ran.. luckily he din follow us into the mrt! crazy shit!
little india's sure got some weird peeps!


just now after work i went out to have a food feast at amk with pei, bianca, susu and pei's sis.. woo.. just a huge place of fish and chips and the best orh laut in singapore .. it wasnt too salty and it was VERY CRISPY!!! oh and sour plum lime juice..

my oh my.. Amen to all that! chomp chomp was overhyped...


dinner was a hilarious affair with bianca and susu and pei cuz of the craziest '' intellectual'' shit we come up with! and some lame jokes... come to me if you wanna hear some wahahaha!


im thirsty for some drinks and i have this urge to dance like mad.. maybe at sim bash soon.. i cant wait.. gona club with some old frens cum new clubbing kakis..
