There is this part of us, that we want to get rid of, but we can't. We see it in a mirror, every day. Or, as we fly by sky-scraper windows. Or the ones who describe us - the ones who remind us of us. Anti-narcissism is narcissism, at it's finest. We'll find it, through self hate, subconscious self indulgence, or even our leisurely daily ego trip.

You take me by surprise.
From now on, we dance.
Nevermind the lyrics; the song is but just an accompaniment to the music in our hearts, the pulse of us.

You take me by surprise, again.
This time, humming.
Only You

Thank you my love.
Last night meant so much and was yet another example of how you never fail to amaze me. You have no idea, how much you've changed my life.

HELLO 2012

REALITY BLURRED

2012-01-03T11:54:00.003Z

I woke up from a dream today.
I dreamt that my baby came to find me in London and we spent December, Christmas and New Year's together. A dream so real a part of me is gone now, and so surreal I cant believe it happened. I will meet you again. Some time, this year. In yet another timeless dream.

I love you Benjamin Ong ♥

2011-12-06T06:14:00.002Z

I still cant believe today actually happened !?
The lovely boys are sleeping.. Actually, everybody is except me haha, i'm still in a 'what-just-happened' mode. Yes it's 6 in the morning.. I did sleep, but woke up halfway. Best day ever. I knew something was up. But still, i cant even.

Ohmahgahhhhhhhhhhh

2011-12-05T12:39:00.003Z

I feel kinda lost now that assessment's over HAHA
Okay, I do know what I still have to do (dissertation and research work), just that life is just more.. laidback now :D
I painted my nails last night ! Lik, properly finally. Heheh, they look like cupcake icing now ^^

Anyhows, I somehow feel there's something fishy going on ?? But I shall not think too much, as I always do haha..

2011-11-27T19:57:00.001Z

These dreams under my pillow
In the twilight of these white nights

2011-11-21T19:29:00.001Z

I am stressed.
I finally got hit by the stressbug >:(
I want a hug.
Or maybe not. I think I'd cry if someone were to hug me now.
I want my boyfriend lik, here with me :(
But I am not fussy. I could do with twirl. Or cupcakes. Or really good rocky road. Or ice cream. Milkshake ? A good burger ? Haha..
My head feels like a bundle of ...!? ready to spill out or burst any time.
I've got so much so much to do, but I dont even know what to do.

Ohmygosh.

(by the way, the picture above is drawn using a ball-point pen...... amazing or what.)

Wow. First time I actually have that many notes on tumblr. 81 notes. First time I actually have more than 10 LOL. And it's only because it's McQueen we're talking about haha

Seriously. Stupid period. I'm having a huge craving for twirl and it's actually distracting me from my school work. You have to try it if you can. It's similar to cadbury flake (twirl is produced by cadbury too..) but more intense. I got Mercy addicted to it, and I intend to spread that love further.

Cant wait for Friday. Then December. Then 2012.

It would have been an otherwise crap day if not for Mercy, Darel and the lifegroup. Even though you guys had no idea, thank you. Not to forget, Florence and the Machine.

2011-11-05T15:42:00.004Z

It's not my birthday yet, but certainly feels like it came early! I received two presents today :D (and also, I ate some super awesome cookies earlier) (and, I'll be going to see some fireworks later in the night) (and going to a party aft that.. to celebrate someone else's birthday lol)

Anyhows, I went out to collect one from the PO, and when I was back, a package came through the door ! (I'll not talk about this one yet.. because I am still in the midst of confirming who the sender is lol. Dont wna make assumptions though I think I know who, heheh)

So yes.
Mr Benjamin Ong ♥ sent me a package but I was out ystd so I had to collect it today, and when I opened it, I was too touched to function. Literally.

(the picture does not do it any justice at all)
(best thing ever) (after God) (and after the boyfriend)

It's too precious, it's 100% leather, and the design is just amazing; I dont know how I'm going to use it ! You know lik, I would get so paranoid bringing it out hahahaha
It's similar to how someone gives you a really really pretty book, and you dont want to ruin it by filling it with your ugly handwriting or with dodgy pen inks or make a grammatical mistake or some sort.

I love you baby :') ♥

2011-11-04T21:00:00.003Z

Positivity.

I actually did work today. Like, spending time in the library and getting down on my dissertation stuff. Kudos to me lololol. I do want to work on it more, but I am getting very very hungry (and sleepy too, may I add). Stomach is more important ^^

Anyway, I went to the doctor's today to re-register myself and also to get a doctor's letter. Guess what. I lost 4kg over the last three weeks when I was sick :O That's massive. I'm even lighter (ok just a kg less) than I was before I first came to London !

Anyway, I need to go now. To the toilet, and then to get my stomach filled haha love you guys ♥ !

2011-11-02T01:54:00.001Z

This is a bit late.
Wanted to blog about this, but internet's being a bugger nowadays.

I'm sure many of you know/heard about the Chinese toddler who got ran over twice, with people passing by in between but reacted with nonchalance towards the badly injured toddler on the road.

I watched the video, out of curiosity. And curiosity killed me.
The first time she got ran over, I started crying. The second time, I couldnt watch. And by the end of the video, I was sobbing like nobody's business, feeling so helpless and pathetic. My mind couldnt comprehend what I just saw. The next thing I knew, I started saying sorry. Sorry on behalf of all the people who walked pass and did not hesitate to do so; sorry she experienced the ugly side of humans in the last moments of her life; sorry how the principles and values of many societies in the world have been compromised, seared and forgotten, even as we progressed tremendously.

Then I started saying sorry. Sorry for all the times I dint lend a helping hand even though I could have; sorry for all the times I compromised my own values because of pride, fear and selfishness; sorry for all the times I talk more than I act; sorry for the times I always think there's always another time.

I dont know why this is happening. All I can think is that this is a wake-up call of what the world is becoming into- apathetic. I dont think it is just China alone. I am pretty sure there are other similar cases like this, except that this happened to be caught on camera and went viral online.

And so I have made a decision. A really, really simple one.
Just treating people in general nicer, and being more appreciative of them. Saying thank you every time I board the bus. Smiling at the cashier. Buying food for the beggar. Giving small treats. Hugging people more. I dont know.. I dont know if any of my actions will make an impact at all, but I do believe it helps make the world a little better, somehow, no matter how small it is. Of course I'm only human and I still fail. But I will keep trying; I dont ever want to lose my soul, and forget what it is to live, even in the busyness and rat-race of life..

PASTEL HAIR

2011-10-30T11:29:00.000Z

Love these colours !
But I dont think I can carry it off since I'm dark; I'll probably end up looking like an old woman lol. Also, I'll have to bleach my hair.

ALONE AGAIN, NATURALLY

2011-10-27T01:52:00.000+01:00

Ok. Was supposed to do up a mind map for my dissertation tutorial on Friday, but. my. brain. is. dead.

Anyway, I cant wait to get my appetite back. I want to eat. Happily, and feeling satisfied. And not having to only be able to have small bites or soup-based foods. Yes I'm still sick.. I've got tonsillitis :( I just need to get well before my birthday..!

On a happier note, I finally got the blackberry cover I wanted !

And speaking of which, no idea what to do for my birthday again. I had Four Seasons and tried to watch Guy Fawkes fireworks for my 19th, finally caught Guy Fawkes fireworks for my 20th, had Assa and My Old Dutch for dinner with my brother and a few church people respectively for my 21st.. And I dont know what to do for this year since I actually dont have school on that Monday :D (..cos of dissertation week :( boo). I want to go somewhere actually.. but not on my actual birthday; it's a small possibility. But for my actual day, I actually just feel like staying home and have people cook for me or bring me food hahahaha or go out for a big but still affordable meal hahahaha (omgg i know where.. sichuan!!) (but i'm so lazy to ask people out :/)

“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.

LOSING THINGS

2011-10-15T00:28:00.001+01:00

I wonder who else still reads my blog, because I know I've been MIA for so long. Yes yes, I've got a boyfriend now so thats why, but no. Ok mayb yes. Kinda maybe, partly. Haha, just that, it's been a while since I have had my solitary moments (yknow, lik talking to myself on the bus, in the shower and with my soft toy..).

Nowadays, things' occupying my mind are my fyp, my dissertation, the ipad, blackberry sudoku, my bed, shoes, my currently-growling stomach (Coco Rocks rocks btw !), christmas, and you- my boyfriend. (I know you read this heh) (to other ppl: okay, dont judge me)

I think that as we grow older, we start to lose things.
Lose memories, lose a sense of time, lose yourself, lose your camera (yeah, thats me), lose friends, and lose a sock.

But we can also lose memories, and know which part of your life, your past shaped who you are. Lose a sense of time, and then realise your priorities and change them if need to. Lose yourself in music, in art, in math, and in the simplest of things. Lose your camera, and learn that the most important pictures are captured with and in your heart and soul. Lose friends, and grow closer to the remaining few. Lose a sock, only to find it again days later, feeling all silly.

So go ahead, and dont be afraid to lose things.
Afterall, we never actually had anything to begin with.

This is a super long overdue post I wanted to write after I got my iPad for the first few weeks. So since I have watched all my American TV and my Sim in SimsSocial has ran out of energy (lol), here I am !

Just wanted to show you guys this photo application called Fotolr PS HD, which if you ever feel lazy to put on make-up.. this is THE application. Okay.. I'm lik doing a review lol. Well, just thought the app's pretty cool.

2011-09-29T17:25:00.002+01:00

You're not here now, but it's okay.
I know that I will see you in four hours.
Just like how you wont be here, but it will be okay.
Hours are indefinite, but I will see you eventually ♥

“What do you really want?” I asked him impatiently. “You, I want you,” he replied. I wasn’t buying it. I turned to walk away, when he stopped me. “I want that part of you that gets excited when you hear the ice cream truck. The part that cries when old people die in movies. The part that cares much more than what she wears. The part where she can totally be herself. The part that when I look at her, I only see her. The part where she could never give up a stuffed animal, cause she’ll feel bad for it. The part where she wants me, too. That’s what I really want.”

It's almost 4am, and i'm tired but no, I dont want to go to sleep.. yet. Somehow trying to grasp lost time. Have not been faithful in uploading my pictures (nt that it rly matters), and when I finally did just now, my oh my did I realised how fast August went by. Certainly feels like I'm in a time-based game and someone just went to Settings, changed the time and date, and suddenly, I am just a month away from the start of my final year. I know that once my final year starts, life's gna get a hundred times more busy and stressful than it is now. I do miss the busyness of school but hiiii, i'm not done holidaying lol. That said, I cant wait to finish my course because then, it would mark a new beginning in my life.

Anyhows, the past few days have been crazy, but all iz well.
And after monday, it's time for me to start researching on my third year project and thesis. So if you see me, pls ask me about it so that I will feel the urgency hahaha ayeee.

Cant wait for icecream !

Really old, but one of my favourites ♥

Ever since I've been given the responsibility of a cgl, I've become more aware of my imperfections and how flawed I am. It's not a bad thing.. because I've learnt to be more dependent on God. Titles aside, it really just means a whole new level of putting aside self, being broken, serving others, increasing availability. I often find myself struggling between taking the easy way out and allowing myself to be discomforted. It's been a long (and short, at the same time) journey. Fighting, failing, and picking myself up again. And here I am now, facing my demons yet again.

Perseverance.

Yes, I do realised my blog entries have become quite uhh revolved around one thing ahahaha so I shall attempt to write abt something else today.

I think I've become an expert in cooking almost hard-boiled eggs haha, yknow when the yolk is still really yellow, and just solidified so it's not hardened, but really soft yolk ? HAHA yes. I've got pictures in my phone but I'm lazy to upload them to my lappie now, so.

And, I am currently building up a list of awesome food places in London (mainly cafes cos I dont have money for restaurants hahaha) that I've been to or really want to check out. Speaking of which, I am feeling hungry now..

And if you're in Singapore, please help me look out for any temporary jobs mmkay. I'm in (desperate) need of a job :< I dont mind anything, really, though I do prefer retail/admin to being say, a waitress in a restaurant (I cannot carry and serve heavy plates); working at somewhere creative would be ideal.

2011-06-20T21:47:00.000+01:00

Or just be able to call/text for that matter :)

I dont think I've ever frown this much in a day before. Crepewool is my enemy now. Really not liking this project, boo. I dint think the day would get any worse, but I was soaked in rain by the time I got home >:( Anyhows, thank God for dirisami :) though I'm still kinda frowning, I do feel so much better. And also after a fa-qi-ing session with Tzuk, heehee. Having dinner (I cooked seafood pasta :D) now at 10pm, meh. We got chased out of the weave room earlier than usual cos it's Friday night, and Marium was lik nooo we dont have a life, let us stay till 930pm ahahahaha love that girl.

I'm going out tmr, I dont care. I want some seafood green curry from Borough market. If not, Im gng to Spitalfields for some cakes or pies muahahaha

Next Tuesday's the end of May, woot. Told ya May was gna pass fast. June will be here soon woohoo. Not really looking forward to weaving in June but it's a short project anyway I guess. I feel like packing already.. maybe I should. Need to get cardboard boxes first. Anyway, so proud of myself today. I dint buy bubbletea and I dint buy Cafe Nerro's milkshake either. Anddd, I finally cooked Japanese curry rice. Anddddd, I finished my essay ! :D Awesome notz.

DID I MENTION

2011-05-23T22:38:00.002+01:00

That's me chilling.

I think, I am going back to my bubble tea days omgg. And of all places, in London £.£ If I were to buy one cup everyday like how I did during SOT days, I would spend at least £100 in a month lmao. And tbh, the current balance in my bank account doesnt allow that.

Anyhows, Tzuk helped me get bubble tea just now. It's to help me be happy while writing my essay. But I've just finished it, and my essay is progressing very slowly. I am actually typing more words on facebook than in microsoft word. Who knew it wld create that much conversation honestly, like seriously; the power of bubble tea woohoo lolol waha ok high on tea sry.

“The best part of having a relationship is getting to call the person or lay down next to them and tell them all the crazy things that happened to you all day long. And in the end that’s what it’s about, kids. It’s not about the sex, it’s not about the money that they give you or whatever. It’s not about how good-looking they are, it’s about, can they listen to you talk for hours and hours and hours about stupid shit that doesn’t matter. And if they can, then you’re meant to be together forever. Even if that means you have to call them 100 times, that’s okay.”

She isn’t amazing at one thing, just good at a lot of things, and that’s all she’ll ever be. She wishes she could be different, but she lives her life to the fullest anyway. All she truly needs is love to keep her sane. She looks at her world like it’s a book, with pages being read every day. She’s her own worst enemy and hardest critic. She knows she has flaws and tries to accept them, even though she knows she never fully will. More than anything, though, she just wants to make a difference one day, and she wants someone to remember her name.”

Had a nightmare.

I never actually am a believer of Friday the 13th.
But yesterday, I literally had a nightmare. Still having one.
I became the cause of my nightmare- and all I can think was/is see you ruined it like I knew you would.

Still,
I want to thank God for my lifegroup, or I wldnt know how I was gng to go through last night. Probably watch some more Vampire Diaries and mope around. To be honest, I really wasnt up for hosting at all, and stomach cramps werent helping (and still not helping). But as the night went by, by God's grace and mercy, I actually started to feel better.

Andddd, pray for me if you can haha
I've got a major project deadline on Thursday and I'm freaking out, cos the materials I ordered have not arrived, so the later they arrived, the higher the possibility of me pulling more than just one all-nighter. The best is if it arrives on Thursday, and I'll fail. Andddd, my 2000words essay is due at the end of the month and so far, the only words on the doc is the words of the essay question.. so. I know 2000words is not much but I did not attend the seminar so I'm kinda lost. Yes, digging my own grave (as usual).

Larry: What were you so sad about?
Alice: Life.
Larry: What’s that then?
Alice: You want to talk about art?
Larry: I know it’s vulgar to discuss the work at the opening of the work, but somebody’s gotta do it. I’m serious. What do you think?
Alice: It’s a lie. It’s a bunch of sad strangers photographed beautifully, and all the glittering assholes who appreciate art say it’s beautiful ‘cause that’s what they want to see. But the people in the photos are sad, and alone, but the pictures make the world seem beautiful. So the exhibition’s reassuring, which makes it a lie, and everyone loves a big fat lie.

MORNING ALL !

2011-05-10T10:05:00.001+01:00

My brekkie which I'm proud of hahahaha cos I dint really had anything in mind. All I know is Im gng to cook onions with egg which I dont used to like very much but I think it reminds me of home so I actually craved for it lol.

Anyway, I know it looks ok only, but it tastes damn nice hahaha and it's really simple, so I'm gng to teach you lololol.

Just fry the onions at like low-medium heat (so if your stove has numbers 1-6 like mine, it'd be 3) and just keep stirring occasionally for like 10minutes. Then increase the heat to medium (4) and continue stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, add salt and pepper (dont have to add too much). Then when the onions start to brown, crack an egg and cook it scramble egg style. After that, crack another egg, but cook it sunshine egg style (this is for yolk lovers, so you can poke the yolk later and let it flow over your onions heh heh). And then, add grated cheese, and fry a bit more and you're done :D !

And it's not that fried ! I've got sore throat and after eating it, I dont feel like how I'd feel if I had french fries so yah haha (y)

THAT'S LOVE

Woot. My shoes has arrived ! Funny how it slipped my mind, and I just had this naggy feeling for the past few days that I was supposed to be expecting a package of some sort. Really nice packaging, which made me feel like buying from the website again hahaha but no, not unless I have a voucher, which I did, and so I bought the shoes for so much less than half the price (and shipping's free :D).

The order form is slipped inside this card !

Ok. It doesnt look that high right. But, it is super high. When I first saw it, I was lik O.O hahah, the highest pair of heels I've ever owned. It's pretty walkable though haha but then again, I only walked around my house in it for like what, a few minutes hahaha

Anyway, to show you how high it really is, I took a picture of it with the highest shoe I have in London (and it's a wedge) !

BAGOLOGY

2011-05-03T16:34:00.004+01:00

Jerlene tweeted about this, and I decided to just give it a try for fun, so here's the picture of what I posted

And here's my report, which was pretty spot-on I think.

Dear Wei,
..Thank you for sharing your bag I sense you are someone with lots of inner passion and energy – you are like a battery that doesn’t run down! What I love is that your inner positivity and optimism almost seems to come from this constant source of passion for life. Of course sometimes high spirited people can come across as too strong for others – so make sure you aren’t overwhelming others especially men! I can see that you also like the feeling of inner peace, and finding a sense of tranquillity – maybe this surprises others! You are expressive and creative and someone who likes to follow new ideas, new paths or pursue opportunities. You should have a good sense/ gut feel for what is a good idea for you to follow. Don’t forget to remember your goals and make sure you are moving forward to pursue them step by step. On a note of caution, you are someone who does not like to be bored. You will find repetitive tasks very boring. You won’t suit a monotonous life style so make sure others are not trying to make you live one! I think (despite all your energy) that you can come across as quiet. You are also tactful. Given that, make sure that you stand up for what you want and feel. For you a sense of happiness I feel comes from laughing with friends and being around bright people. I think your energy comes in many different forms and is your sweetest gift of all.

Go try it here ! All you have to do is 'like' the page, take a picture of your bag contents, and just post it up to their wall !

“I complimented her bracelet during rehearsal and she replied ‘You think so? Thanks.’ It is an Alexander McQueen bangle, a simple hoop with two skulls facing each other at the ends. Wordlessly she smiles, removes it and places it on my wrist, gently handcuffing me. ‘It’s okay. Keep it. To remind you of me.’ I look at her and it makes me feel still. Then, looking into her eyes, quietly I say: ‘I don’t need anything to remind me of you.’ That is how I fell in love. Throughout (the VMAs) I carried the bracelet in my pocket. Even though she was there.”

Today marks the last day of my internship. I actually feel sad it has come to an end haha ohwell, might pop by one day again. Tmr is William and Kate's big day, and I'm still deciding if I should follow the route or sth, or just chillax at home and watch the live telecast or sth aha. Hope the weather will be good though ! I'm so bored, and I got work to do, but I dont wna work :( Bawa.

2011-04-27T21:59:00.002+01:00

:D

I keep getting my days mixed up. Lik srsly mixed up haha

Oh yes.
I've decided to be vegetarian for a while.. until I wont cringe at the thought of meat (hopefully by mid-may, cos I've still got lots of frozen meat in my fridge to finish !). I'll still eat fish and chicken though hahaha, cos I was cooking minced beef a few days ago, and it was gross. Never had this problem before, but when I prepared it the other day, it was really just plain gross, that when I had my meal after that, I just dint feel like eating. Even today, zz hahaha ohwell.

School's starting in a week's time, boohoo

Packing my room, and just tidying my clothes seems to take forever.
Need. To. Vacuum. Tomorrow.

Anyhows, now that my eyes are not occupied by strewed clothes and bags and papers, I find them looking and resting upon seemingly long-time-ago things.

It's kind of insane, just thinking about it.
Who knew all would change in two years time.

I wonder what went through our heads at that point of time.
I wonder if any of us saw it coming.

2011-04-19T13:38:00.000+01:00

Woohoo :D
Plsplspls remain like this pls.

Did I mention I'm so excited haha I keep thinking next month's June already..! May's boring.. And I've got lots of projects, not looking fwd to it :( ohwell. Can't wait still !!

One of those monologues.

So, it occured to me that the longer you know someone, the easier you get angry with the person ? Or rather, you let yourself to be more easily angered or upset ? Dont know if you know what I mean haha, people get too comfortable with each other they forgot their manners. Forgot to take time to know the person again. But yeah. it's always said that, if you don't know the person well enough, don't jump to conclusions abt him or her. But I dnt knw if one actually jumps to conclusion more easily after knowing a person too well. Too well.. Can it ever be too well ? Or do we think we rly know that person too well, but we don't actually. I can't even figure out myself sometimes, so how can another person even know me too well ? Or how can I even say to know another person too well when I can't even figure myself out.

Peaced out.

Some things feel like fantasy because they're distant.
That is the way of stars. Just as it is with people who are too beautiful, they disappear easily.

My lifegroup (or rather, the fact that He actually entrusts such a responsibility to me), has always been one of the three main things I thank God for.

I'm not a perfect (very imperfect, in fact) person, much less a leader. But I was really encouraged by my lifegroup members today ! Makes me want to keep on keeping on. They are what the lifegroup is. True, a team is a group of people who may not be equal in experience, talent, or education, but in commitment (Patricia Fripp). I dont know if it's very bold of me to say this aha but I want and pray for Holborn Lifegroup to be a Team. And of course, I'm not leading this Team alone; let's not forget moi co-leader Adam who I feel is very different from me aha but we're a team nonetheless.

I've been thinking about loads of things.
Mainly about you and i, and our journey so far.
I thought about how we embarked on this journey; how crazy this whole thing is, and how everything just crazily came together. I dont know what exactly went through my rationale and logical mind to go for it, and of course, there's still a long way to go.. but I've got a feeling, that this would be the best leap of faith I would ever have leapt.

Crush. It's funny how the same word for the feeling of disappointment can be used for the feeling of attraction. The Oxford English Dictionary states one of the meanings for the word crushed as "a strong and unreasoning, but transitory attachment.
