I don't need a compass or map, my heart already points me to you.

(Ripped from Tumblr)


Happy Valentine's Day! <3

I feel blessed to receive such great gifts from the people around me. So happy! Side note: The above tumblr picture is dedicated to my special bestie, Amanda Seah the penguin. (: Hahahas, I'm so sorry for the belated valentine's day present. I will pass it you later when we meet! I'm done with your present already! It is handmade, please be honoured and touched :P Hahahas!

(Valentines gifts which I received with love)

Photoframe from Amanda, Smiggle BFF keychains from Vivian, and chocolates from Xiaofang, Junho, Wanying, Jiamin :D Not to forget, thank you Shiwei for the whole packet of Hershey's Kisses! Hahahahas! Thanks thanks!

Side note: The moment I reached home, Shiwei texted me and said he regretted giving me the whole packet because he wants it for himself LOLOL! He was like beating around the bush by saying that I will get fat from eating that much of chocolates. PS. Those Hershey's Kisses in the picture is just part of what he gave me. I ate like five over, and my family ate another five already. LOLOL! :DDD

(More valentines gifts! :D)

Lovely chocolates from Weina (who went all the way to Orchard to buy for us, kudos to you! ^^), M&Ms from dearest Chaomin and pokercards from DJ. Okayys, the pokercards wasn't exactly a valentines day gift. But yeahs, LOL! ^^

So I spent the whole Thursday night preparing my present for DJ, and I neglected Amanda. D: I'm sorry Amanda, I got add something in your present to make it bigger! I'm sure you will like it, you are such a glutton. Hahahas! :DDD

(Chocolates with little notes on it)

(The end product which I think is very pretty)

(A notebook to write down all our dates)

It wasn't very fanciful as compared to what DJ gave me. But yeahs, I did spent my whole night on it until I didn't have time to do Amanda's. Must appreciate it horhs! LOLOL!

PS. I love you truckloads Manda! <3 

So time to reveal what present I received from him... /drum rolls/

(Sweet-smelling roses!)

Gah, first time in my entire life that I received real roses from somebody, so I'm pretty touched. LOLOL! :D && he got my favourite colour, pink! Side note: I will love to receive baby blue roses someday, it looks pretty and not as common. I like to be unique, :P I kept smelling the roses, it has a pretty and calming aroma. Ohgawd! I'm not weird, just excited (:

(Super sweet card hand-drawn by him)

He spent four hours on it. Kudos to him! :DDD He is freaking artistic can! The red colour part is all done using a G2 red pen. Not using marker to colour it, but purely just a mere red pen. Omg. No wonder he took four hours! Super got patient sia him, if it's me, I think I will probably just give up halfway. >.<

(The inside of the card)

So he said, the real roses will wither, so he shall draw me one that won't wither. Again, the above artpiece is done using just a G2 red pen. It is freaking pretty!!!

So after I ended my CCA, he came over my school to fetch me. I ate some tuna pastry earlier during my break in CO already, so I'm not hungry. But he haven't eaten anything the whole day :/ So we went to the AMK hawker centre for his dinner, while I ate my laoban. ^^ Yumyum!

Side note: That Junho arhs, I cannot tank. He was on his way to Goodnews Cafe to grab something to eat whilst I'm walking up the stairs towards the CO room. So I asked him to help me buy something from the cafe tooos. So he was saying, since today was valentine's day, he shall gave me some discount. So I smiled widely at him and say thanks. && he actually replied, "I say discount only arhs! NOT FREE HORHS!" Bangwall. LOLOL! He charged me $1 only. Hahahahas! :DDD

Back to DJ. So because it was already quite late, after dinner, he sent me home straight. We played daidi for awhile at the void deck (I'm pretty sure my parents won't come down at that timing cause they not dinnering outside with their friends, LOL) :D He taught me how to shuffle the cards, I got improvement! I shall show you one day, Amanda! I am a professional, :P

Another thing that 值得我一提. Jojo and Chio super sweet can! I don't know what Jojo gave him, but Chio actually wrote 14 letters to her where he gave her everyday till valentines day. Ohgawd, super sweet! I'm jealous, hahahas! Moreover, he cooked breakfast for her on valentines day. He actually practiced beforehand. Not bad chio, you have grown up to be a real man! :D

So Joting's clique got jio us for some candle-making workshop on Friday. (I think we grown closer these few days when Kaiyuan and Evelias went to join the orientation camp, and Weina being away with Yinzhi most of the time, leaving only me and Amanda 自身自灭). I was pretty touched by their invitation, this shows that they are willing to make up with us. (We probably have some misunderstandings these few months which my clique don't really know what wrong have we done). But yay! :D What a meaningful valentines day!

My valentines day was great despite having the burden CO. I enjoyed the company of all my dearest friends, all the dearest people around me. Thankyou for making my valentines day such a great one. It was the best so far in my whole entire life.


想把小星星 排成爱的图形
为你的天空 点缀一些惊奇
即使像流星一闪而过 寂寞也情愿
不求你看见 只想为你发光永远

Once in awhile, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love give us a fairytale.


(Ripped from Tumblr)

Hehes, I went out with DJ on Wednesday for an early celebration for Valentine's Day. (: Super annoying, I had CCA on Valentine's Day and it freaking ends at 8pm. Wtf? My Valentine's Day is gone like that. Arghs!

Went to eat Kushinbo buffet at Jurong Point (Boonlay MRT), and it is freaking expensive. Although there was Ladies' Affair Night (promotion for sweet little girls like me :P), I think we chatted for too long that we exceeded the time, so it was back to the normal price. Ohmanzxc. It was $40+++ per person. I think I will prefer Kiseki (at Orchard), it is cheaper and the food is roughly about the same. However, Kushinbo was DJ's favourite restaurant, so... LOL!:D


(See the yummy salmon? I had roughly about 5 plates of that. LOL! ^^)

After eating for 2 hours plus, we went to take a stroll around the mall, before heading home. Yes, I have school the next day, so went home earlier that day. He sent me home as usual, and we had a heart to heart talk session at my letterbox area. It was freaking frightening because I don't know what time my daddy will be back from his dinner, and it will be doomsday if he saw me and DJ alone. T.T My parents are strict like that. /sobs/

He gave me two Craftholic as my Valentine's Day gift. YAY! :D I super love it! But again, it is super expensive again. Cause he gave me the two medium-sized ones! :/

(I haven't open the vacuum pack thingy, so the right one looks abit squashed)

So yeahs, that ended my sweet Wednesday. :D Thankyou for the buffet. Thankyou for the Craftholic. Thankyou for enlightening me. Thankyou for everything. ^^


I'm sailing through the sea,
To an island where we'll meet.
I'll hear the music fill the air,
and you'll put a flower in my hair.
As the world keeps spinning round and round,
You hold me, right here, right now.
I'm really lucky to have you by my side.

Love can bend and breathe alone, until the end it finds you a home.

(Ripped from Tumblr)

So yeahs, a few days ago during PE, I actually vomited. Ohgawd, you have no idea how embarrassing it was. I was running halfway, then my throat decided to gave way. Arghs. I was 'excused' from CCA afterwards, a good thing. :DDD Special thanks to Amanda for taking care of me while I'm feeling sick! Life is great with such great accompany. Hehes!
Then I was feeling much better on the way home, but still decided to meet up with my sister in case something happens to me again. As in, if somebody I know is around me, they can help me if I puke again. /touchwood/ I won't want that to happen as well. Hahahas! :D Reminds me of my stomach flu scary moments. Arghs! /erase memories from my mind/
To kill boredom, I decided to head over to Gongcha for a drink to reward myself for my hardwork the past few days. Ordered honey latte thingy, that doesn't taste that bad, but I will prefer my usual, the Gongcha Special Milktea with milk. LOL! Something like that one, I cannot really remember. I usually just point at the menu :P
I passed the person the money, and before he place the money into the cash register, I stopped him and waved my Watsons card in his face to get my discount. Yet, being unreasonable, he merely glared at me and said that it was too late. With that, he immediately kept the money into the cash register. Worst incident ever, ohgawd! Fortunately, the other kind auntie decided to refund me my money (Watsons card have 15% discount if you buy Gongcha). Woohoo!~ Such aunties are nice people who put in the effort to make the world a better place. She spreads kindness around to everyone of us, and we should do it too. It is a like a cycle, you know? #smallactsofkindness
Alright, I shall proceed on doing my Valentine's Day gifts for the kiddos already. Valentine's Day is a day to say thanks for the people around you. We do not only have to spend time with your boyfriends or girlfriends, it is also a special day to celebrate with your best friends, to show your appreciation for them. ^^ Hehes, I sound so professional :P Ta-da!
I'll fix these broken things
Repair these broken wings
And make sure that everything will be alright

We often cling to our fairytales until the the price for believing them gets too high.

Chinese New Year Day 4! :D

The long-awaited post, hahahas! So on this happy day, I went to Bugis with my mummy and dearest sister for a shopping trip! Woohoo!~ Heng my daddy didn't join us. He surely complain about having to walk for super long hours (it isn't that long actually) and that we spent too much. Zzz, >.<

Anyways, we had Swensens for lunch! Something that only we can enjoy if my daddy isn't around :/ Since he only eats Chinese food. Bangwall T.T

(Rodeo wings for appetiser!)

(My mother ordered some beef thingy, which is simply irresistible!)

(Chicken teriyaki spaghetti for my sister)

(My all-time favourite crayfish pasta!)

(Banana split for dessert!)

(interesting 'rocky something' ice-cream with dry ice!)

Hahahas, then we went shopping at around Bugis. Spent approximately hundred plus dollars that day (and the day before, oops). LOL! :D Then we went to the nearby temple to pray, to pray that I can get rid of my unluckiness. Hehes! YEAHS, and my life is getting better - I'm not as sway as before already. LOL!~

Went Lot 1 to meet up with my daddy for dinner at the food court. I shared a plate of fried rice with my little sister because I am quite full. Hehes! :D Great that my appetite became smaller! So this practically sums out my whole day for Chinese New Year Day 4, :D It wasn't very fun, but quite fulfilling as I got to enjoy another day with my family.



I hear you in my dreams,
I feel your whisper across the sea.
I keep you with me in my heart,
You make it easier when the life gets hard.

Gravity is not responsible for people falling in love,

Chinese New Year Day 3! :D

Super belated post, but whatever. Went IMM and JEM for a shopping trip. Woots! :D I didn't really buy anything, just a top. My sister and mummy spammed buy, and they spent about hundred plus on clothes. Zzz, there wasn't my share. Ohwell.

(Lunch at Potluck Eatery)

So I ate at this eatery called Potluck in IMM, because usually the queues were all darn long, except for this day due to Chinese New Year. Lucky us, (y) LOL! Ordered fish head curry, claypot yong tau foo and claypot prawns with vermicelli. Hehes! The fish head curry was not that good. I couldn't a whole fish, the meat was scattered everywhere. T.T The yong tau foo is not bad, because they have this special sauce. But their best is the prawn dish. Woohoo!~ I love seafood, I love vermicelli, and I love their delicious sauce. ^^

(Blackball for dessert!)

So I had my favourite dessert, Blackball! :D Super yummy, ohgawd. I think I had introduced this dish before, so I'm not going to elaborate much on this. But hey, it tasted super good. Even my mummy, the fussy eater, says so! :DDD Cheers!


(My pepper 'dinner')


(My mummy's pepper 'dinner')

So I had dinner at Pepper Lunch. Nothing special, but yeahs, because it is new year, I decided to order something more special (I always order the salmon pepper rice because it is one of the cheapest and I'm super broke). I ordered this hamburger steak thingy (cannot remember the full name), which tasted awesome! I'm serious. Then my mummy ordered some chicken and mushroom curry rice, which is also not bad. Not spicy at all, perfect for me, but I still prefer my hamburger steak. LOLOL! :D My sister ordered the beef pepper rice whilst my daddy ordered the chicken one. Nothing much special, hence no pictures. My blog is special, you see. :P Hahahahas!

I shall post the Chinese New Year Day 4 another day, because I am super lazy now and because the pictures are in my sister's phone. Ohwell, I guess my blog is soon becoming a food blog again. Bangwall. LOLOL! :DD But hey, life is too short to not eat good food. 



I thought you were my fairytale,
a dream when I'm not sleeping,
a wish upon a star that's coming true.

Why did I let myself believe that
miracles could happen?
Because now I have to pretend that
I don't really care.

Now I know you are not a fairy tale,
And dreams were meant for sleeping
And wishes on a star just don't come true.

I'm tiptoeing on broken glass,


 "You cannot have a better tomorrow if you are still thinking about yesterday's problems."

Yeahs, so I had a small tiff with one of my close friend, Yangfan, yesterday. Arghs, because he made Amanda helped him copy his lecture notes. Wth. Why can't he copy himself? Why make others help him do his work? It is not as if he is busy or something, he is just slacking throughout the whole lecture. I don't see the point in people helping him to do his 'homework'. Zzz, so I just flared up at him.

P.S. Because my PMS mode was on yesterday, so my emotions were riding on a roller coaster. I was super sensitive yesterday, watch out if you stepped in my radar. LOL! :DD I will make up with him tomorrow, I guess. He can't be angry with me during his birthday unless he don't want his birthday present. LOL! ^^

Anyways, a little note for Yangfan (whom I'm sure is not reading this blog, hence I will be super straightforward because I know he won't bash me up):
"Happy Birthday in advance! Must 快高长大, and try to control your temper. I appreciate your merits, but sometimes I really feel like bashing you up due to your annoying teasing."

LOLOL! :D This week was alright, quite tiring though. I had CCA section dinner yesterday with the lovelies (Xiaofang, Junho, Kiyee, Wanying, Shiwei, Xinze) at Popeyes. ^^ Yummy yummy, I think I pretty much prefer Popeyes to KFC now. Hahahas! :D I like to eat their chicken tenders. LOL. So I was super tired till I fell asleep in the middle of the conversation. T.T Super paiseh can! I feel like digging a hole now and jump in. :/ But I won't because I knew Amanda will miss me too much. LOLOL! :D

Anyways, thanks to Adrian Bell, my week became super 不爽. Arghs. A 1.5h hour, I only attended 30 minutes because he made me run errands for him. Wth. && he kept changing his instructions, then afterwards 'scold' me for not following his instructions. Hey dude, I'm also a human. I cannot read your mind.

So this week, he made me go to the bookshop to collect some notes for my class. However, when I got there, the bookshop was not yet opened. So I went back to class, and he scolded me for running around in the college because I was supposed to wait for the bookshop to open. Ohmanzxc. So I went back to the bookshop, and the bookshop auntie said there was nothing for me to collect. So I went back to class and he told me to print this newspaper article. The article was bigger than A4, but he told me to "rescale it to A4". So I thought he meant use the printer (technology) to re-scale. Then the bookshop guailan me again, saying I made her life so difficult. Ohgawd, it is definitely NOT me. Then because I haven't return to class in ten minutes (yes, he asked me to return back to class in ten minutes, which is a mission impossible), he told the class something about the 'GP rep being naive" (yes, I'm the GP rep), and he went to the bookshop personally to scold me. He wanted me to cut out and paste the newspaper article so the final product will be A4. Wah, he thought I have magic wand is it. How am I supposed to finish so many things in a mere 10 minutes?! 

Enough ranting, I will post about my CNY days 3 and 4 in the next post, because I don't like too long a post, hence I shall not combine with this post. Okayys, I'm getting naggy. Perhaps it is the influence of Wendy Ng and Mr Ng's power. T.T Everyday nag nag nag. Arghs! I'm going bonkers soon!




Your face has faded but still lingering on,
Because light strikes a deal with each coming night

You are surrounding all my surroundings.

Chinese New Year Day 2 :D

Yeap, I didn't went visiting as usual. Hahahas, :D I meant, I don't visit people on Day 2 of Chinese New Year, LOL! I went nature walks at Labrador Park last year, but this year my parents decided to give nature walks a miss, and hence we went 春到河畔 instead. Super crowded! x.x

(The unglam me posing with the 财神爷)

Okayys, 财神爷 is very far from me in the picture. LOL! :D If not I will be crushed to death if I went nearer, it is freaking crowded. T.T Everyone is pushing and cutting my queue. Zzz, got this old uncle best. I was queueing up for some drinks (the queue is bloody long), then he suddenly cut into my queue. So my mummy was telling him to queue from the back, and he was like "I queue already! Just that everyone cut my queue, so I decided to run all the way to the front." Wth?! I cut back his queue, so he was still behind me. Omg, we must strive harder to achieve a more gracious society!!

(Selfie time!)

My hair was in a mess. && I'm sweating like a pig although there was night breeze because of the crowd. T.T LOL! Side note: This is the first time I wore a shirt out. ^^ #achievementunlocked


(Bad year for rats)

Sobs! D: Must go 打小人 soon to 赶走霉运! I think I'm going temple tomorrow. LOL! Today's plan was to go shopping in IMM and maybe grab a bowl of Blackball. Yumyum! /drools/


(family photo)

Omg, I figured my faces in all my pictures are like super cramped up. Bangwall. Next time at night don't ask me take picture!!! LOLOLOL!~



Another memory and I'm asking myself
How can I let the past be the past
Once and for all, take a hold of the future
And not let it control what I aspire to have
What's done is done, and it's time to start again
Can't let it tear me apart again
