Enchanted by Nuffnang

Yes, I am one of the lucky 100 Nuffnangers to win a pair of tickets to catch the exclusive screening Enchanted at Great World City! :D



And according to the list of lucky bloggers, I'm the first; which means I was the first one to email a response (because the names are all not in alphabetical order)! WAHAHAHA. How cool is that?!?!?!?!

I have no idea to jump in glee to the fact that I'm fast.. or that I'm kiasu.




Before the event, my very nice classmates (Brian, Weiming and Xerxes) accompanied me to wait for Amelia in town and we had Pizza Hut! :)


AMELIA; who accidentally zoomed the photo while we were taking it, thus the very up-close and nude shot. Ha.

Check out my eyebags. :(




Ngee Ann City's gigantic Christmas tree and us! My lousy Sony T-7 camera is not pro enough to capture the whole tree. Sigh.


Next up: Island Creamery! :)_ (the underscore is my drool)

Puluk Hitam and Nutella flavoured ice-cream

Great World City has hugeeeeee lifts! Or maybe the lift ain't meant for shoppers like us.


Or maybe the lift isn't big, I'm SMALL.


Hahaha. I look fking spastic.




Digressing, this is what I did during class on the Snowman application of Facebook:


HAHAHAHA. SO CUTE RIGHT?!?!?! Actually, there's more decorations to come.. But in order to get the new decorations, I need to spam and make people add the application. So, yup.. COME PLAY TOO!

P.S.: I have no idea what's the carrot doing down there. I have no idea at all.




Ahem. Anyways, review of Enchanted! One word: BAGUS!

Enchanted is just such a wonderful movie! It's been long since a good fairytale-like movie comes along, you know? Must watch!! And Enchanted is just what we needed la. It got the whole theater in stitches, awwing in envy and clapping for more.

And Prince Edward is damn good-looking. Me likey.

Oh.. Did I mentioned it's a must-watch movie??




Something random.. This is how one of my MAC eyeliners look like:


It is damn sadzxzz. And I hadn't been to places with MAC yet, so I have to make do with this pathetic piece of shit. It's actually alot shorter than the cover. Ha.




I've got a quiz tomorrow and I've yet to do anything about it. Sigh. Right before I go, THANK YOU, NUFFNANG! :)

mundane with a capital 'M'

My life has been kinda miserable recently.

My definitely of miserable is having work cancel out on you, and no dates in the weekends. So yep, I've been miserable. *sighs and sulks at one corner*



Friday was CCN Day and I bugged Weiming to get me this balloon flower; all for the sake of charity! :D


And then Xerxes the bugger spoilt the stem lor. Sadzxzzx.


We had.. lunch dinner some bites at Ikea after spending some time at Queensway giving Brian a very crucial wardrobe revamp.


Swedish meatballs + chicken wings + potato salad = LOVE


Met Huixian in town after that..


I've been seeing quite a lot of this girl recently, and I ain't complaining. :D


Heheheheh. I'm a present!


Supper along with Allan and Jianling at East Coast Park, 'cause we got so bored in town. We planned to sing too.. But KBox seems to have closed down at Marine Parade. Sadzxzxzz.




I got really really bored on Saturday with no plans! Everybody was busy with their own stuff so I was home alone. :(

Thankfully, I found Zhiyang and we went to catch Bratz..

.. which is a nice movie, in my opinion! All the girls are really pretty.. A total teen flick which is somewhat like High School Musical. Go catch it if you like HSM.


He who simply refuse to take a decent photo with moi.

Timsum after that at like, Verrasamy Road or something too.. :)




So tomorrow is yet another school day! I've got assignment deadlines and quizzes coming up this week. Sigh, it's time to get cracking. This is by far, my slackest semester ever. Lovin' it; and now that I'm spending abit more time with my class guys.. It's good.




Digressing, let me ask you a question: How do you like it when your gf/bf has this really close and good friend of the opposite sex?

So chances are, they are totally not into each other and they just so happen to enjoy each other's company in this really buddy manner. And well, the thought of getting all over each other has never been an issue as well. How well will you take it?



I just had had conversations with a couple of my friends regarding similar issues and it seems like, no matter how gracious and open-minded one can be; it's never good to have a close friend of the opposite sex.


I don't know about you guys, but I guess I will be pretty okay with my boyfriend (that is if he exists) having close girlfriends. Well, I certainly will appreciate if he doesn't forbid me from speaking to boys, you know?

So yeah, vice versa. Respecting one the way you want to be respected is very important. So before you engage yourself into this BFF friendship with someone of the opposite sex; consider the total twist of scenario with you being your partner instead. How will you feel?

It's always easier said than done. Don't lie to yourself and think really really hard. Do you really wanna hurt your partner in such manner? To think about it, the time spent having the imagination go wild is never a small number. In fact, it just might drive one crazy. All the way up the wall.

So yup.. think about it.



Me still thinks that it's da best being single, because I won't be facing such dilemma. ;) (Come join the club! Okay, joke.) But then again, I shall be more careful with attached guy friends.. Jealous girlfriends are definitely not a pretty sight ya!

And I just rest my case with an apology to whoever that felt threatened by my presence; not that I know of many of such sort happening.. But it's always better to be safe than sorry. Heheheh.


OUT!

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day.

Despite the gay dance routine, the song rocks my socks yo.




I've always had had this major problem about myself: I have no idea how to portray my unhappiness to the one that caused it.

Call a pussy, a wussy, whatever; the fact is that I just can't express myself well tête-à-tête, you know? Perhaps if we were to converse through the World Wide Web, I may be able to open up better, but who am I kidding?

I just can't fucking show my ultimate dismay to people!

And if something's really bothering me, I either bottle it up inside me or whine to whoever that available to lend me a pair of listening ears.


This is no good. Well, by whining to people, not only do I complicate stuff, I might just exaggerate the whole situation under agitation, which just might be the complete twisted version of the very truth.

Not to forget, whining to people about one's negative side = bitching. 'Nuff said there.

Plus, everybody knows how bottling emotions inside is not gonna do any good to the failing heart, yada yada..


So now.. all I've got to do is to open up and let my dismay be heard and felt by the parties involved. I guess communication and mutual respect are the best ways to resolve disputes. I'm sure it can't be that hard right? You go, girl!




Times like now make me treasure my VGF (Very Good Friends) alot. These are the girls I know , for sure, I wanna grow old with. These are the people who will be my bridesmaids, who I wanna go crazy with in the LV boutiques, hang around with while our kids school, discuss our kids' results and how to prevent them from having pre-martial sex.

I love you and you and you.

A quickie..

Rakcent, shuddup. Everyone has long forgotton about that.

And the pursue of YT's english name continues.. Keep the comments coming in! :) XOXO





Like pro yo!

Random Thoughts #18

I had school till 2pm today and I spent some quality time with Steffieeee. We bought new files and went googoo and gaga decorating them with foam cute vehicle and cat stickers. The stickers were so cute, I came out with a fabulous idea to stick them on our ears like, you know how we do it when we were in primary schools? Damn cute la.

Somewhere.. over the rainbow..

Okay, never mind that. It's a private joke.




Dinner with Huixian as well at Golden Mile Complex/Tower/Shopping Center/Plaza (you know the one with the cheap cinema?) for Hainanese chicken rice steamboat!


Huixian's and my parents useda bring us to this place religiously when we were kids, and we were just reminiscing a few days back and we decided to dine there today.

I think I really like steamboats with friends because it's like, everyone just gets out of their comfort zones and eat like how they'd at home ya? Plus there's this closeness that some sort makes me feel like family to the friends.

Let's all go steamboating soon! ;)




Every now and then, people ask me this: Why are you single?

To think about it, it's quite a stupid question to ask, don't you think. I mean, single means single la. Got why one meh?

It's like how you can never explain just how much and why you love this person. But oh well, being single also means that there's no one I'm highly interested in or that I wanna date exclusively.


Or to the nasty ones out there, maybe YT is just 没人爱 (translate: nobody loves YT).

:(


Sigh. Sometimes the whole status thing is just so underrated, isn't it? Look around you, and just how many unofficial couples do you see?

I can easily point out a few and I guess I've been through a couple of this shit.


Everybody's doing this whole no string attached thing. It's just so convenient ya. Convenient for company, fun, joy and laughter. And convenient to the extend that when you don't feel like it anymore, you just let go with the *snap* of your fingers.

Whoever cares about the other party? No string attached what! You should have known better that something like this is bound to happen sooner or later. Serves you right for sinking so deep into this pit, you foolish person.

And all you get for being a sucker for love is.. a broken heart, a head full of unanswered questions and endless sleepless nights.




Actually I have no idea what I'm ranting about, you know. Ha. My thoughts are so random, they can't even link up properly. And I don't think I'm making any sense, but whatever. I just feel happier and lighter after typing shitzxzxzz.




I am so fickle-minded sometimes, I think I am in no position to complain about the other fickle people.




You know, some time ago.. I posted sometime about fate? (I found the link back to the post.)

I wonder how true this whole fate thing works. Because I think I'm gonna challenge destiny once again.




Sometimes, the more you abuse the word "LOVE" on people you don't actually love much.. the more you seem to be a really vicious person who slits one's throat silently, then proceed to dispose off the body at some deserted forest where no one will find out.

Now that's scary.

Even scarier than people who don't pretend to like who you are.

I is don't like hypocrites.




I hate how friends drift apart at points of time. Because of little disputes, clashed schedule, school, work, BGR or whatever.

I. Is. Fucking. Don't. Like.







And oh yeah, I think it's about time I pick up an English name which new people will address me with, because people always have such a hard time pronouncing YingTing. Sigh.

So I've narrowed down the list of names to these:

• Charlotte Low YT (by my class boys and approved by Amelia)
• Sam Low YT (by Huixian) [think Sammie, Samantha.. for nicknames]
  
• Nicolette Low YT (By Steffie) [think Nick, Nicole, Letty.. for nicknames]
  

PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHICH ONE YOU PREFER. Like, you know, do you think of YT when you see any one of the above names?

Because I value you guys so much and your opinion matters to me, so whoever you are. SHOW SOME LOVEEEEE and let me know whichever you prefer?

OR if you have something else in mind which you think fits me to a tee.. I'm open for suggestions. ;)


Deeply appreciated.. MWAHS! XOXO

It's been a while..

Friday; before work at the bars on Emerald Hill, I searched high and low for these bunch of cool guys..

Some guy I don't know, Kahwai, Amelia and ZiJian


.. giving out Andy Warhol fliers. Damn cute la. :D


Dearest Huixian, Jianling and David came around Acid Bar to wait for me to end work. And the nice guys bought Tuborg from me. Heheheheh.

You have no idea how time flew faster with these people around. MWAHS.

DblO and OBar after that!


It's been longggggggggggggg since I've clubbed! :) And because Huixian wasn't in covered shoes (BAH. I is don't like this club rule), I changed shoes with her and for the first time ever, I danced in heels, my stupid work boots.


Me, David and Huixian

Me, Jianling and Huixian


I was easily the tallest girl around with the boots on la. :D :D :D

If you know me well enough, you'll know I don't wear heels and dancing with heels requires alot of training and I was killed.


So I left my boots under some table and danced in my thunder grey (I don't know why but I am so highly intrigued by color name) stockings. Wahaha.

It was nice meeting Yongsheng's (Huixian's bf) friends for like, the first time and despite all that, I must say we can click! ;) Jianling was very generous. Muahaha.




Worked at Rab Bar (Boat Quay) on Saturday and I was pretty upset by the whole place. Unisex toilet with wet floor, small interior and all... Thankfully, the bar owners are pretty slack and the customers, being regulars, are very nice.

Refusing to change in the toilet, I walked.. all the way to MOS in my killer boots and Carlsberg dress.

WAH. ^#!$^(((&%!$^*(**%&~#~3567



After some consideration, I found myself in MOS. :)

Jie, Leong, Edwin and Kahwai


I don't know why, but I kept trying to get the attention of the photographers. Ha. And of course I did get their attentions, BUT..


The photo sucks.



So let's move on.

Your friend. Heheheheheh. Perhaps Leong got taken back by the photos we took. ;)




To the dance floor!

At some point of time, Jie tried to punch my face and dropped my ear stud in the process of doing so.

And in the attempt to find it, I took photos of the floor:


Ha. I found these photos funny somehow.

Didn't manage to retrieve my ear stud though. :( Bah.


And there's this guy who went like, "DO YOU REMEMBER ME? Do you remember me?? I always see you at MOS and I've danced with you before!!" Like, OMFG.

To think about it, it's kinda funny. :P




After a while.. we went to the Members' area, bought more drinks and snapped the camera like nobody's business.



P.S.: I know the collage is very fucked up, but I'm too lazy and tired to do anything about it already. If I'm ever in the mood, I just might touch them up. But you can just wait. And wait.


And the guys got so drunk, it's funny. Ha.





Something random to share:

I'm falling in love with this drink that I useda give dirty looks to the friends who ordered it.

MOO-VEEEEE

It's been quite some time since all six of us girls hang out together, regardless online or whatever.


:)

To think about it, I hadn't been meeting the other girls for quite some time. So sorry, and when my financial crisis has calmed down, I swear I'd stop working on Fridays.



I've been bumming around town so very often this week, I think I spent more time in town than in school. Ha. And it always seem to be the same routine for me, so I wouldn't be surprised if the shopkeepers recognize me.

ANYWAYS! I've caught Rendition, The Game Plan and Muay Thai (or something like that.. you know, that Thai boxing show) recently.

Woohoo, hadn't been watching movies for ages so this felt good. :)

And The Game Plan is a fantastic show. MUST WATCH!



Xerxes was very sweet to accompany me in town, after school yesterday, before I head for Leong's BBQ at his place with the whole gang.


Food was fantastic, company was good, venue was nice and all in all, it was a great evening. :) Hanged out with Sebas and his friends after that till I zonked out.

Today's Deepavali and I shopped in town (again) with Huixian. Spent quite some money.. Sigh. School tomorrow. Sigh.



I was just thinking; when people gets attached in a relationship, somehow, the friends get forgotten and forsaken to one side. Even the closest of the closest friends wouldn't be able to maintain the same old friendship they had, because they'd just spend less time together.

It just upsets me to see friends losing contact because of relationships. And it's always an eye-opener to me, when I see friends contacting only after relationships have ended. (I have no idea if I made any sense, but I think you should get the idea.)

And then you get forgotten again, when your friend has established yet another relationship.

Maybe it's because we human just can't manage our time well enough. Or maybe it's because we can't prioritize properly. Or maybe we just let our hearts get in the way.

Friends are more than just company when you cannot find anyone or when your boy/girlfriend is away. Friends are people who care so much about you, they may just cancel their plans just because you seem like you'd need them.

Sometimes, we just take things and people for granted, don't we. We may have this someone who's always there and got your back in times of heartbreaks and crisis, but that someone might not feel appreciated so we should cherish the people around you, spend more time with them and show some love! :) :) :)

*hugs my girls (you jolly well know who you girls are!), Cheechai, Xerxes and Sebas*

P.S.: Don't come around asking me what happened. Nothing happened and I am just expressing a thought. Chill.



And a random photo to end the post:

Ninja turtle!

One very bad day

Started off with me waking up just one hour before lessons, which left me with no time to do anything about my face or hair before I rush out of the house. And my lens were giving me so much problems, I was switching about the 2 pairs of lens I have left, but they were all giving me so much discomfort, I had to make do with just 1 len on the left eye.

On the way to school, there was this suspicious sharp pain at my abdomen area, which leads me to remember that I've yet to experience period for quite some time.

Alas, I just had to find that out the hard way, with my stained jeans. Class ended and I went back to buy new (daily - fuck monthly ones, they hate me) lens and I left my shades on the bus.


Sigh.

Can my day be any worse?



Maybe we're trying, trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing is beating our hearts
We're empty

I love you, you, you, you, you, you, you and you. Tell me you love me too.

I is very very poor

Overspending, excessive clubbing, jobless and credit card bill makes YT a fucking poor girl.




Sigh...

Well, it's back to work now and I was at Kaz Bar promoting TUBORG just now. In other words, like a beer girl. It's kinda cool. Met some nice people and got a few free drinks (even though I'm not supposed to drink on the job. heh) ..


And I'm so tired, I'm going to bed.

BOO!

Shadows of a thousand years rise again unseen,
Voices whisper in the trees, "Tonight is Halloween!"
- Dexter Kozen

And today's also my blog's 4th birthday. :)

Sorry for the lack of decent updates. There are just so many many things happening in my life all in one go, and I didn't even have the time to stop and breathe. Never mind what, because actually.. the stuff didn't really concern me, but YT, being such a good friend..


Okay, I should stop digressing and share some happy moments with you guys! :D




Friday is like, the offical Papers day right? And lucky me got to meet up with all the girls! Although at different times and places, it's just get catching up with my favourite girlies.


Didn't managed to take a photo with Amelia though. Damn. :(

Stefanie and I went to look and play with Halloween costumes at Toys'r'Us..


Pardon all the blurry shots, my friend can't take good photographs. :D

Wear Acuvue contact lenses, THEY REALLY WORK IN MAKING EYES BIG!!!1

Stef-lan the warrior

That red thing is a poisoned apple. It really is.

One of my better days..


And I met Sebas for supper at Geylang after that!





MOS for Halloween + Edwin's birthday party on Saturday!!


I'm a witch! :)

Well, not your old school typical kind of witch yo.



Calvin's a burglar! Or robber!

Well.. either way, it's a good costume. Ha.

Your friend.

Edwin, whose birthday lies on the 24th of October. Someone's 20! :D

Jie, Calvin and QingHao, playing with hand guns.

Your friend says hi.

SAVE MEEEEEEE~!!!!!



Javier in pink.

Sebas, acting cute with my hat, which is always getting in the way, dropping and super irritating. I left it at the baggage counter because it's so troublesome and got me pissed off.

And you do not want to witness the sight of a pissed off witch.


Boonsiang was there too, slightly wasted and all alone smoking near the valets. Ha.



And by the end of the night..


My stockings looked like that. :S

Sia la, looked so abused.




School today...


And town with Stefanie after that. :)

We caught The Seeker, which is a rather stupid show and the story is predictable.. So yeah.


I'm really tired. I'll blog again soon, darlings.
