Just dropping by to update a lil..

so I had my 8-days break and I must say, it felt so long. So long that it makes it awkward not going to FMDS for a week ( me so used to my norm routine already) 

anyways, Yesterday me and Ross went to sentosa for the sentosa 
flowers..and I must say it's really w.o.w. and it's quite packed too. nuff said. here's some pics :)

will upload the rest soon :)

me excited for the beach thing tomorrow.. rawr!  (random)

While I was searching and looking through some inspirational quotes..I found this.

"Never allow someone to be your priority while you're just their option "

Honestly, It struck me a little. this is due to some past issues regarding with a "FRIEND" back then.

The fella told me that she/he values our friendship and I was once special to her/him. well, not that I give a damn about it now because obviously the friendship ended soon after but to think of the words " I was once special" it makes you think.. JUST ONCE? sounds like the fella didn't really know how to value people.. You see, there's two ways to interpret it.. one is you were forever special till shit happens or the other thing was you weren't really  THAT important coz you only played your part ONCE and that's it you're value is down the drain.. 

Gosh. Im real thankful that I'm not friends with that person already.. call me anti-social or whatever but I rather keep a friend that's been tried and tested over time than that fella whom I think is god damn superficial..

Never tell your problems to anyone...20% don't care and the other 80% are glad you have them. 

- Lou Holtz ( For which I have to say, it's true to a certain extent)

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken and you'll break others' hearts. You'll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you'll cry because time is flying by. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you've never been hurt. Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances. you just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out, dance in the pouring rain, hold someone's hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up, stay up late,and smile until your face hurts. Don't be afraid to take chances or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back.

I forgot to mention by the way..

Ross got 7.5 out of 9 for his IELTS by the way.. 

Thanks be to God. :)

10:10 PM





it all started with a phone call..

nah.. not trying to copy juno or whatsoever here.

but anyways, I was talking to my boyfriend earlier this morning as I prepared myself for church, trying to dress up to look good obviously. I remember telling him what I intend to wear the night before so yea, pretty much the chore's done eh.

and guess what? 

I tried on the black spag top with a belt matching it with a pair of jeans and as I stood in front of the mirror I told Ross, "errr.. something's not right, it doesn't look nice at all. should I try the white  tank top instead?" 

About 20 mins plus we were both trying to figure out which 1 looks nice on me.. sigh

To the point I told him that if these things didn't occur..We wouldn't have found out how indecisive I can be.. such a fickle minded person I am. haha

Good music.. This is especially for my love.. Ross Rugdee. :)

bOY there's no one that gets me the way that you do
I just can't explain it there's something bout you
That gets my emotions all tangled inside
No matter how I try
I just cannot hide
What I feel when you simply walk past my way
When you smile it shines bright and you make my day
I sit here all alone thinking about you day and night
Boy to me it feels so right

I just want you close
Coz you make me smile
I just cannot get you off my mind
With each kiss
You blow me away
And without you I think I'd go crazy
For your love I would do anything
Coz to me... you are my everything

Boy there's no one that gets me the way that you could
I just can't explain it there's something you do
The stars shine much brighter when I'm with you
And when you kiss my lips
I feel so brand new
Boy you always know when I'm feeling down
And you know how to turn my frown upside down
All the cute things you do simply tickle my heart
Boy we'll never be apart

I just want you close
Coz you make me smile
I just cannot get you off my mind
With each kiss
You blow me away
And without you I think I'd go crazy
For your love I would do anything
Coz to me... you are my everything

All my dreams have come true when you walked in my life
It seems so unreal I'm so glad that you're mine
I'm so glad to be yours it's too good to be true
But I know this is real and that I love you

I just want you close
Coz you make me smile
I just cannot get you off my mind
With each kiss
You blow me away
And without you I think I'd go crazy
For your love I would do anything
Coz to me... you are my everything

For those who say I dream too much, I say you dream too little.

 For those who say I am too realistic, I say "get your feet back on the ground."

I might not be the perfect person, but I am perfect for trying.

Come to think of it.. A week after receiving my results gone by so fast... 

soon it'll be chinese new year and valentine's day.. OMG x3!

This year is crazy.. Is the earth spinning that real fast now? I don't like it. 


This is a random shit. I just remembered what Ross told me few months ago and I burst out laughing. here it is.

Ross: You know what? 
ME: hmmm.. 
Ross: they should make cigarettes cheaper so some people like... (censored) can die early.. FUCK! such dumb asses.
me: ROFL.. 


Such a naughty fella.. spanks. :)

A week in design school is awesome,the people there are great too not to mention I'm the second youngest in class because most of em are like 20++ (very mature class indeed), Lecturer's are easy to get along with especially David and Shane. 

well.. friends? I met like half of the class already and I have my girl buddy, Lakshyya. 
Right now, Im kindda busy due to assignments and projects. Im trying to work on my first Advertisement, trying to promote ben and jerry's with my self made flavour "Breeze of Mango" haha. 

Oh yea I almost forgot, I also learned how to use illustrator and make my own cartoon character. hehe.. but the process of making one made me frustrated at the start but now, I guess a little more practice and i'll be fine. :)

p.s. the picture up there is part of my group project.. *beams*

When I woke up today, I manage to make more sense as to what my boyfriend told me last night, I was feeling emotional due to the fact that I can't believe I'm making such a big step of my life for entering the private route,I can say I was feeling scared that I wont be able to handle it well..yadah.. yadah.. and of course, the feeling of knowing no one at the same time. Feels as though Im a little girl and its my first day in primary school.( haha!) With my fever and sore throat running wild at the same time I couldn't really absorb anything yesterday, I was confused. 

So yea, skip the boring parts.. The good thing about design school is that the lecture hours is very relaxed. why? because its 3 hours a day lecture (2-5 p.m.) (for which I guess, they are practicing this quote "teach less, learn more"),  its 5 days a week. Monday- Wednesday is the module session, Thursday is project day and friday consultation. The whole place seems to be cozy especially the lounge and classrooms. Lecturer wise.. I've only met one yesterday. I will be meeting the rest later, hopefully. :)

So much for the info. LOL!

I got into the course that I wanted which is Advanced Diploma visual communication ( Graphic Design) at First Media Design School and tomorrow the real deal begins for me. well actually they started lessons yesterday and I'm like 2 days late as I didn't go today straight after enrollment because Im not feeling well.. again! I'm down with a fever and sore throat. (OUCH!) 

So yea. Wont be blogging as much as I used to before but I will update time to time. :)


Cheers people! All the best in life.

Yes.. the long wait is over. The day finally came. Results were good. 
Glory to God almighty!  

There's still room for improvement and its not the end of the road. For me its another transition of life, A change that I need to grasp with both hands now. 
For a sneak info, I passed 4 out of 6 subjects and  I can go to ngee ann poly however, I chose to go the private route as it faster as I see no point "wasting my life away" for 3 years just to get a certificate that says "DIPLOMA" and what? 1-2 years for degree. I'd rather go for 3 years which at the end of it, I will acquire a DEGREE and ADVANCED DIPLOMA. 

Oh well, good luck to me I guess. Tomorrow, Me and Mom will go to first media design school and Nafa to check out the school. 

What a crazy day.. repulsive and too sudden..

Today was rather different. Me and Ross went to 3 different polytechnics today; namely  Ngee ann, Singapore Poly and Nanyang poly. It was a good experience I must say as it was our first time going together especially for the night open house in nanyang. Well, if you were to ask me which open house stood out the most, I say it would be either Ngee Ann or Nanyang. Reason being, For ngee ann it was an eye opening experience for me as we went for the Film and Media studies tour of which its partly related to the degree that I will be pursuing which is Bachelor Of Arts Visual Communication (Graphic Design), It gave me more Insights as to what I would be dealing with soon. Nanyang, is due to the "happening" vibe.. there's loads going on there :)

Oh yea, Me and Ross also decorated heart shaped cookies in nanyang. It was fun. 

Mine (above), Ross (below)

and after the night open house, we went to yishun to grab a bite. NASI Briyani! oooohlalala.. it taste soo.. heaven! LOL. Anyways, Results will be out in like 2 days.
 I'm excited.anxious.nervous. Gahhhh!!

Well, School started like few days ago and It seems everybody's been blogging about it.. so here's my piece of point views.
Honestly, I do miss going to school as it had been an "auto-pilot" routine for me all these years, and not going this long it makes me feel weird just like everyone else. 

Hmm..Yes staying at home and going to school has its pro's and con's that i can't hide.
The few things that makes me happy not going to school anymore is because I don't need to wake up real early in the morning,and at the end of the day feeling dead beat.. what else? Nosey peeps trying to dig stuff  from you ( sorry about this but please, get a life! ) However, I am happy with the way my life is now, been using my free time wisely by helping Ross prepare for his ielts exam this coming saturday and monday so I didn't really idle haha! and I managed to catch up with my overseas chums via msn so its all good! 

Oh dear.. Time really flies fast these days.. can't help it.
Once you look at your watch,and its telling you 12.30 and the second time you do so its already 2pm. 
At the ticking of the clock, O level results will be out real soon. God Strengthen Me.

I know I should be trying to lose weight but this... I couldn't resist. 
My gosh..


8:55 PM




Time, is going by, so much faster than I, 
And I'm starting to regret not spending all of here with you.

And now, as long as I can, I'm holding on with both hands, 
'Coz forever I believe that there's nothing I could need but you, 
So if I haven't yet, I've gotta let you know... 

Never gonna be alone. 
From this moment on, if you ever feel like letting go, 
I won't let you fall. 
When all hope is gone, I know that you can carry on. 
We're gonna see the world out, 
I'll hold you 'til the hurt is gone. 

You've gotta live every single day, 
Like it's the only one, what if tomorrow never comes? 
Don't let it slip away, 
Could be our only one, you know it's only just begun.

I'm gonna be there always, 
I won't be missing a word all day, 
I'm gonna be there always, 
I won't be missing a word all day.
