Here We Are Now, Entertain Us
I need to get the BF his BD gift (probably a pair of Havaianas + portable speaker) and a cake soon because he's turning 20 next Monday. Ever the last minute shopper, I still haven't got anything done when it's only less than 5 days away (I said that because I can't count) And even if I've decided on WHAT to get, being Pauline, I can't decide on the colour / flavour. So I came up with something and texted him.
P: Hey darling I'm doing a personality test right now. Help me answer three questions, I wanna know what kind of person you are, okay? (I still can't understand the logic behind those three-questions-and-I-determine-you-are-something kind of test) Firstly, choose one out of 5 numbers (this one just to distract him and not make the whole thing look dubious), 5, 6, 7, 8, 10.
C: 7.
P: Okay, how bout the colour of slippers you like? Black, white, silver, blue, green. And the last question, what kind of cake do you like to eat? Cheesecake, blackforest cake, durian cake, mango cake, mixed fruit cake?
C: Mango cake and black.
Voila.
Thank goodness I asked, if not I was going to settle for Pine Garden's Blackforest cake because he kept raving about it when we ate it. Also, I bought him mango cake last year and hought he'd prefer a change. Quite unexpected for him to choose black over white because white is his favourite colour.
Well anyway, I'm done with that, and one thing off the list. Oh, I met up with CC about 2 days ago. God that guy slimmed down so much and made me feel fatter. Watched Burn After Reading and enjoyed it. Barely 10 people in a small theatre and I like that. I'll watch anything with George Clooney inside, or Robert Downey Jr.
I love old men. :)

Worst Day of The Year
Wanted to go and thread my eyebrow at Clementi today then I remember it's operated by Indians so it should be closed. I need to do my brows, need to get a haircut (probably at AMK), need to get bf his BD present, need to order his cake... I'm still feeling moody (of unknown reasons to me) wanna get out of this house, ASAP.

I'm NOT Yours (and You're Not Mine)
Mom was like, "Bao Lin lai kan, you Wang Ruo Lin leh". And I ran out of my room and saw Joanna Wang, resplendent in a simple floral dress. Her left hand strumming the guitar. I noticed. Because some of my favourite artistes do the same, like Kurt Cobain (of Nirvana), Paul McCartney (of The Beatles) and rock god Jimi Hendrix himself. I've been in love with her ever since I saw her video on Youtube about 2 years back. Hah I don't know, girls like that attract me.
She has straight bangs, not the blunt bang kind of straight, you know? I need a haircut, since two weeks ago, and I can't decide whether I wanna go back to Jolene (?) I can't remember her name, there are too many girls with names starting with J. I can never stick to one stylist, and I have never done that. I can also never decide on how I want my fringe to be, how long/short I want it to be. I've been wanting a straight fringe since forever but I have fat face. Okay this is pointless.
Cherwyn's birthday is coming soon next month and I think I'll go and order a cake tmr or something since it's a holiday. Heh heh hope his throat recovers soon so that he can eat durian cake.
Lately, I've been super moody all over again, over nothing. I just don't wish to talk, because once I start talking, I will start complaining about the petty stuffs, I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm one of the rare few who doesn't keep track of periods, so I seriously hope it's a case of PMS, if not I think what I'm feeling now might be mild depression or something.
Oh, and..
Andrew msned me the other day, asking me to meet for dinner, again. Dinner that will never happen. I think I'm too apathetic, or what I call bochup. I'm always waiting for someone else to take action instead while I get lost in my own world, sitting waiting wishing. (hah Jack Johnson) And I get angry when nothing's done.
He mentioned about "disliking mainstream music more and more because they're playing the same stuffs". And then I thought he could introduce me to some new bands, and he told me to go Youtube and listen to Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours" because "it's great". Such irony! I hate fucking overplayed songs. Screw that, make it - I hate everything!
I sent him Peter Bjorn and John, Feist, Adele and some other tracks but I didn't appear friendly, cos I wasn't not feeling particularly friendly and we stopped talking while transfers were still going on. I don't think our dinner will ever happen, which is good, because I don't really think there's a need for a meet-up. And I don't think I'll ever ask him out even if I'm shopping alone. I prefer solitude over the awkward feeling of facing someone you were once close to.
I need to cheer up soon, watched Tropic Thunder with the Pat HP and JasK but didn't laugh much despite my classmates telling me how funny the show was. And Jack Black and Robert Downey Jr is in it! Two of my favourite actors. And there's Tom Cruise, acting like he's not Tom Cruise.
Okay that's about all. Going to vent my anger with my Nissan Skyline now (okay I'm a loser, it's just in my PSP game). Have a good day.

Somebody's gonna get hurt real bad.
Wanted to surprise the bf by booking 2 tickets for Russell Peters show about a month back, only to be told that it's SOLD OUT.
Thank god, I received a mailer saying that there's an additional show on 2 Nov (1 day before his BD), $119 tickets are left with single seats, so I guess $99 will be the best choice. Was checking out payment details and etc, only to have someone creeping up behind my back, "Ni zai kan Russell Peters ah?"
Surprise plan - foiled.

Life at Twenty
My sister and I were talking about Jansport bags, and I told her I don't get it why teenagers nowadays like to carry Jansport/Dickie/Eastpak like a tortoise shell and this was her reply.

Euphemism
*abruptly when we were walking towards the lift*
Jan: Are you the only child?
Me: No?
Jan: Then you must be the eldest!
Me: Huh. Why?
Jan: Because you have that *gesticulate* aura.
Me: But how can you tell just by looking at me?
Jan: Can tell! Only child or eldest always have that aura, that thing about them.
So I came home and asked my sis what is the eldest/only child stereotype like. For the former, she answered "self-centered" (I think it's just her elder sis), the latter "strange".
Thanks.
For the past two weeks, I have been surviving on >3 hours of sleep and it's miserable! I've always seen those people on TV losing weight cos of the lack of sleep but sadly that didn't happen.
Okay, if I'm not contactable, pls do not blame me cos I think I'll spend my weekend sleeping away. I've got lots of things to blabber about but I'm too tired, so I'll save it for the next post.
Just some pointers so I can remember what I want to write.
- Marine Parade Library
- I've confirmed that Dan's gay.
- SIMS 2 Double Deluxe
- Wish List / To-Do List
- Afterthought when I catch a glimpse of Thomas Ong on Channel U earlier
- Whitest Boy Alive @ Zouk
- Camera Obscura
For now...
"No alarms and no surprises please..."

I Got New Crush!
I'm not suppose to be "crushing" at this age but what the heck, Tony Sano's hot! He's like Jude Law with mixed blood and god I loooooove Jude Law.
On second look, he reminds me of Angel. Ahh, those days when we still use the webcam with you making faces in your office. I normally hate guys who do excessive winking / pouting and all that. But with looks like that, you can get away with anything.
Okay now, back to study.
23:55
Screw it
Just 1 hour after I posted previous entry. Shit.
Okay no time for shitz, I need to study. And I swear I'm gonna buy SIMS 2 Double Deluxe when I finish my exams.

Bored and pointless
X works fine within the warranty period. But once it's over, you begin to panic, thinking about how long X will really last and the cost for repair should it break down. Some products may even fail you way before the warranty is up.
Now, it's entirely your choice to either put the warranty to good use and get a free repair, or opt to buy a new product for a change. Sometimes, before you even purchase, something tells you, "This will last and I'm getting every bang for my bucks.". Same goes for the nagging voice telling you to ignore those unworthy of your time, money and effort. Intuition, hunch, premonition, sixth sense?
You will thank X for serving you well right from the start. Slow startup, fingerprint-magnet, bulky - nothing too major and might in fact give the whole thing a little human touch. At least it shows its little idiosyncrasies right from the start. It does not pretend to be something it is not. It showed its true colour, not after months, not after years, but right at the beginning.
And, you like its true colour. Here's a toast.
And thank you.
