11:38 pm just had my fourth bowl of cup noodles this week and i feel repulsed by the amount of unhealthy stuff that went into my body. my mum just chided me about it as well and it made me feel more pathetic than ever. ...wallowing in self-pity and feeling all out of sorts now. and thinking of how sick kenneth was just now makes me feel like crying. :'( consecutive bad days... someone please tell me that Current Mood: listless

10:21 pm suddenly feeling a little low, and i have no idea why. anyhow, here are some quotes that i'm loving at the moment. Lucas: I never meant to hurt you. Brooke: That doesn’t really matter because in the end, it all hurts just the same. ----- Anna: Why do relationships have to be so hard? Peyton: Cause the only thing harder is being alone. - One Tree Hill ----- Of course you’re gonna get your heart broken. And it isn’t just gonna happen once, but a lot. That’s just part of growing up, and it makes you stronger. Then you can handle it better the next time. You may not get through it yourself, but your friends will help you through it. And you’ll be a stronger person because of it. Then, one day, someone will come along and it’ll all pay off, and no one will ever break your heart again. ----- The question is asked, ‘Is there anything more beautiful in life than a boy and a girl clasping clean hands, and pure hearts in the path of marriage? Can there be anything more beautiful than young love?’ And the answer is given. ‘Yes there is a more beautiful thing. It is the spectacle of an old man and an old woman finishing their journey together on that path. Their hands are gnarled, but still clasped. Their faces are seamed, but still radiant. Their hearts are physically bowed and tired. But still strong with love and devotion for one another. Yes, there is a more beautiful thing than young love — old love. ----- There’s nothing about you that needs to be fixed. There never was, and there never will be. You’re perfect. - Dawson's Creek Current Mood: melancholy

09:32 pm i've been feeling ravenous the whole day. i woke up only at about 11 odd and after lazing around and doing some house chores, i still refused to head down to get lunch ( i was the only one at home and since my mum was at work and my maid's gone, there's no one to make sure my meals are prepared ) until my stomach gave a whimper... and i admitted defeat and got myself cup noodles. i really wouldn't mind living on cup noodles everyday if not for the label "UNHEALTHY" thats printed all over it. then again, all the yummy food in the world are usually sinful, spare for maybe sashimi and soba? :):) the past week was spent mainly at home, being a sloth-like bookworm, burying myself under the likes of Jane Green and Marian Keyes. i no longer see staying home as a waste of time.. after entering university, Me-Time is rare, precious and hard to come by and i'm going to engage myself in as much M-T as possible before school commences. just thinking about it fills me with dread. zzzzzz. went out with kell, yaqi and jacinth on thurs ( or was it wed? losing track of time.. ) for dinner at Pasta Inc :) the service was great and i think the staff loved us ( haha ) but the food wasn't all that spectacular. i loved the portebello mushroom appetiser though!! it was super yummy with all that cheesy goodness <3 we cabbed down to geylang for icky durians afterwards. met up with zukai and sebby for dinner at Miss U Cafe one fine night as well and we all enjoyed our food tremendously :):) i love happy bellies! two weeks back, van, mong, kenneth and i trooped down to Goodwood Park Hotel for their english afternoon tea buffet. while i wasn't that interested in all that smoked salmon sandwiches topped with caviar, i loveddddd their wide array of desserts. there was this mango and strawberry chiffon cake that was beyond yummy and i took five slices of it :P   on another note, work at AYG has also ended and i just want to say that i am thrilled and really happy to have been part of something so amazing. work experience wise, it was the bestest and most fun job ever :) it was lovely meeting all the athletes, or rather, cute boys and girls of different nationalities and i had plenty of fun practising my ( limited ) korean, thai and jap vocab :) i was cheering my heart out for Korea and i think i would have been crushed if they didn't win in the final match. but they did so it was all good :)))   the super friendly thais!! cute boy alert in the middle :):) on another unrelated and more sombre note, i am extremely disgruntled when i meet people who are rude. there are many ways in which one can fall under the category of rudeness but i shan't elaborate on it since... nevermind.

12:18 pm - spate of bad luck its been one horrid week. first thing, my maid's been gone for about two weeks and since then, i've been getting nagged at incessantly ( and very unreasonably ) about housechores and the household's in a frenzy. actually only my aunt's nerves are frazzled ( my mum hasn't said anything so far ) because she hates the idea of devoting her free time to the mundane tasks of doing the laundry and so on. ultimately my ears suffer. whats new. apart from that, i had a miserable time battling with some admin work that was honestly, a pain to complete. but thats over and done with now so i shall anticipate the deposit of the pay into my bank account. then, i wanted to sign up as a volunteer for YOG yesterday and i was about to log onto my NUS email account when to my dismay, i realised i forgot my password.... but the IT centre has gotten back to me already. thank God. and the last straw, my facebook account got hacked into yesterday night. that asshole used reisha's account to chat with me and asked for my password to check out a guy’s profile > feeling awkward about having to reject her and out of good will, I decided to give “her” my password > received an email from facebook regarding a change of ownership to another email > alarm bells started ringing and I cancelled the request and resetted my password > too late, my account got hacked into > hacker added me on msn and demanded that I hand over my hotmail password before he returns me my facebook account. if I don’t comply, he will morph my pictures into porn pictures. gobsmacked and super flustered, i started asking the people around me for help. sally told me to inform him that i'll call the cops if he doesnt' return me my account but he was nonchalant and SO BLOODY COCKY, i wanted to punch his guts out. seriously? i hope he gets syphillis or something. and i really hate myself for not being assertive enough and for my stupidity. i do not want to bid goodbye to my fb account yet. to the fb team, please do something about it... :( HAI. DAMN SIAN. Current Mood: peeved

11:39 am ahhhhhh kim hyun joong is wayyyy too handsome... -fantasizes- i feel super inspired to learn korean now, just in case yknw he comes to Singapore or i'm in Korea and i happen to spot him on the streets.. i'll need to know how to strike up a conversation!! annyong haseyo!! sarang hae!! <3<3 was excitedly telling van and kenneth yesterday night that i'll like to go for the ss501 concert if they're gonna be here for their Asian Tour and their responses were a mixture of amusement and mock uninterest.. but i'm undaunted. kim hyun joong <3<3<3<3 :):):) on another note, kenneth and i caught Transformers last saturday and i thought it was not too bad. there wasn't much of a plot since it was explosions and fighting all the way, but interesting nonetheless in the eyes of yours truly because i never knew much about Transformers and so i had much fun unraveling the story while poor kenneth had to field my endless questions :P we went to the Hokkaido Fair as well and tasted tons of samples. he insisted that i tried all the squid stuffs and there was one that i particularly hated. icky squid. bought the Yubari Melon Spongecake and it was $10 for six pieces!! quite exorbitant but they're yummy so i guess thats alright. dinner was fantastic because we had our favourite Saba Set Meal at taka basement and the chef outdone himself this time because the fish was the yummiest i had ever eaten thus far. and since we're on the topic of food, yaqi, celine and i had lunch one day ( after our interview with sickening Recruit Express ) at Borders Bistro and while i'm not usually a fan of onions, their onion soup was really sweet and yummy.! the flea market was quite an experience despite the humidity. while waiting for potential buyers, we people-watched and laughed at yy's eew-whats-with-her-outfit expressions. i made about $60 in total and so did the other girls individually so i guess its still not so bad since we got to clear some of our preloved stuff! thank you kenneth for getting lunch for us. you're the sweetest <3 dinner was a hasty affair at the coffeeshop below my place and we had SUPER NICE mai pian xia :)) work as temperature screener for the Asian Youth Games starts tomorrow. i dreaddddd :( Current Mood: fangirl89 Current Music: ss501

10:21 am i slept at 230am yesterday and woke up after only 7 hours of sleep. still feeling quite energetic but i think the tireness will definitely kick in later. was doing the last minute preparations with kenneth for the flea later and i'm quite psyched about it! i hope to raise at least $70 so that the money can go into my Topshop-has-nice-clothes-this-season-and-i-cannot-resist-them fund!! work at Sentosa's Summerfest has ended and i'm quite glad about it. the last two days were the most enjoyable because i got upclose and personal with an iguana, had tons of fun blowing bubbles and ( i'm a pro bubble blower because a group of angmohs walked past and they clapped! does a curtsey ) i helped out at some event at the Gold Pavillion with michelle and we were so relieved that the place was air conditioned!! look at my noob face!! was laughing nervously cause the iguana was staring at me so intensely, i was afraid it would lash out and bite my head off :( beautiful bubbles :):)   more later!

06:13 pm i can't believe my last update was 20 days ago.. thats nearly three weeks! a record i think, considering i blog relatively often because secretgardenn's like an outlet for me to channel my thoughts or anything which i wish to pen down. anyway, the holidays have been pretty okay so far. i've been alternating between work, meeting up with my darlin friends, going for interviews ( which is a drag because its crazy hard to find a job these days... ), and spending time with kenneth :) have just completed the Breathe Right Kids plaster event and CommunicAsia at the Expo with plenty of other familiar faces. babe was working at LG so we got to spend some time catching up with each other as well. my colleagues were a pretty nice bunch. everyday, one of us ( either ferlyn or me ) will accompany my boss out to get lunch. and the best part is he spares no expenses. there's always a side dish to go along with the main course plus a bottled drink for everyone :) overall one of the more enjoyable work experiences that i've had so far. this was with the hubber girls a couple of weeks back. fiona's brother signed us in so we were spared from the hassle of waiting. we had some chivas ( upon which i gagged because it tasted like crap ) before proceeding to the dancefloor. met some i-thought-were-nice-but-turned-out-not-so-decent guys which was quite a disappointment. i guess one should only give people the benefit of the doubt when you actually know who you are dealing with. was on the cab home with belle and marlene and i was telling them that such experiences made me appreciate kenneth even more because the earth seems to be increasingly void of nice and decent guys. bleh. then there was supper with siying and muji and house comm outing :) it was nice being at ease around each other, reminiscing about certain issues and updating each other about our respective lives. i really love being around people whom i can be at ease with and be who i am. anyway with regards to the later, we had our lunch at Taos! i enjoyed all my dishes this time round but people like davis kept ordering the wrong stuff. haha lousyyyy. after our bellies were filled, we proceeded to the cinemas where we were deciding between Blood and Hannah Montana. the boys won and we caught the former.. which was a huge mistake because the movie sucked. there was absolutely no plot and the ending left all of us baffled. seeee, we should have chosen Hannah Montana!! BU TING LAO REN YAN, CHI KUI ZAI YAN QIAN. hahaha one of my favourite mantras to boot.     after my interview for CommunicAsia which was at ( way too ulu ) boonlay, i met up with xue and nooby zoe! because they're constantly stuck in ulu pandan ntu hostel, we usually only meetup during the hols. xue was late, as usual. haha late queen :P but we forgave her because she had three tickets to the flyer and she invited us along. its my third time on the flyer and its free again! :) and as per the previous times i went on it, i didn't dare to stand near the windows because i've a phobia of heights. was contented with just sitting down while admiring the view. dinner was at MOF where i had the most satisfying meal ever :):) sashimi, potato salad, zaru udon and my favourite macha zen! heavenly. both of them were laughing at my expression as i tucked into my food but really, nothing beats the joy of having yummy food.. especially jap food. i love my sashimi! also, while chatting away at nineteen to a dozen, we found out that all our other halves are leos!! how coincidental is that right! it was lovely meeting up with them. love you girls <3 ok time to head to the showers.! hope you guys enjoyed the lengthy post :) Current Mood: sticky
