Self-Control

There're only two more weeks left in this holidays and I feel like we're running out of time.

This whole holidays has been pretty much focused on making money to save up for my driving license.

Now, it's time to take a breather.
The last week is purely for nothing but rest.

I feel so easily distracted by things. And I've encountered another barricade I've yet to overcome.
I've been so busy with living life, making money, hanging out with friends/Poot I've not spent time with God at all.

It's like I'm drifting away further and am unconscious of it. I'm Guilty.
Don't know what to do; when you don't think you're wrong, but it's wrong.
I've yet to make a decision.
I want to go to church even more because I need the helping hand.

On a side note, HERE COMES THE FOREVER TWENTY ONE CLOTHES!!! WHEEEE!!!! :)

QUEKITY & POOPOO

Today, the 7th of October 2008,
QUEKITY QUEKADOODLE & AH POO POO both turn EIGHTEEN!

Wowee!
Quek! You're of legal age to marry! Aren't you glad :)

Anyway, recapping 3rd October 2008.
We held a sweet and pretty house party for Quekity!

The weather was great so we poked heart-shaped balloons in her garden.
They look like lollies.

Dorea is living under the delussion that she's a princess.

Anyhow, since it was meant to be a SURPRISE PARTY, we decided to surprise her.
So, we pretended to celebrate for glenn & lilian only.

Quek: I KNEW IT!!! IT WAS ALL A SCAM!!!!

Quek: WAIT! There are too many pairs of shoes for just so many pairs of feet!

TADA! SURRPRREEESSSEEE!Quek: Wait. I can't breathe! I can't breathe!!!
Lilian + Shoe's Clothes = ME
After plenty of food, hugs and 'I cannot breathe', day became night.

Group shots!!

MARC, FANN & THE MO!

Marc and Mo created an original for Quek! Everyone thought it sounded really good! :) We're all TKsians!!! :)

This is where the fun is!
Chew & Roo: *Whispers* Weijie!!! Hold her!!!
Weijie: *Puts his arm around Quek and then shrugs his eyebrows with a cheeky grin*

(Side Comment: Gramps Llama's really cute la. We agree he seems to be the perfect guy.
Girls! Interested? He's still single!!!
Tall-1.83?, Dark-well toned, Handsome-yupyup! Plus he can fly a plane!!! WOWEE! How many guys can do that huh? ;)
And then... DOREA IS CREAMED!!!!

Aww.. alright. I dry her up. It's always me. I'M NOT MARIA!

Singing O Magnum!!! :)
Recapping choir times.
Our Friendship Grows Through The Times.
From the seed, to the sappling, pre-tree-stage, tree-with-leaves, stump.
My bestfriends and I. I learnt a new phrase. HUN-NYA-NEE! lol.
That night was the blast. It's cool meeting so many people I miss all on one night. Shoe, Fann, Mamalee, Wingyan, Pepper, Teck, Jeremy, Weijie, and of course Chew & Quek! :)

It was a blast playing Dorea Trivia, Tse-Dong, Polar Bear, Colour Your Butt... The list goes on.

But I felt so warm and loved; like life's really beautiful if you take time ti appreciate what you already have.

The start of my hilarious sep hols

WOW!

I've not blogged in ages.
Well, feels like ages.

SEM 2.1 might have sucked, but SEM 2.1 HOLIDAYS have started off with a hilarious and ultra eventful beginning.

01 Sep
Gerald took a taxi down to give me a TEACHER'S DAY'S PRESENT!!!
02 Sep
Met up with the crazy 06 peeps to COLLECT MONEY! Payday!
We went to the SA office in Chinatown to collect our pay.
Cos of miscommunication between us and the CHINA PAPAYA, Ahjuma & I walked up and down escalators & stairs, crossed the road quite a number of times. PFFT
'People's Park Centre' & 'People's Park Mall'
WHAT THE PONG IS THE DIFFERENCE?!?!

There's a creepy woman behind me.
HEAR AHJUMA THE LIONESS ROAR!!!!
The Lioness is sleepy. She rests unglamly on the China Geisha cum Papaya.

While Ahjuma slept and almost rolled off the seat a couple of times, Paps and I decided to help Ahjuma neaten her hair by....

TYING BRAIDS! HAHA! We wanted to tie dreadlocks but we didn't know how to.
And when Ahjuma awoke... Oh my mama.

Ah nei Ahjuma.

06 Sep
MAHJONG CRAZE AFTER WORKING!
I won once! WHEE! I think it's quite good considering I'm a beginner ok!
PENG HU!

08 Sep
I treated Pooty to his well-deserved treat. Now he owes me one!

YUMMY! Cartel's oreo cheesecake & eastside brownie :P

09 Sep 08
Bah kua breakfast Pooty Delivery! 10 Sep
Ok ok. Here's something pretty interesting.
It all started from one message.
Ok actually it started some time back when Paps & YinZhou put Ahjuma's number in Parkway's I-Phone.

AHJUMA'S TURN FOR PAYBACK

After using Pooty's name for the crime, we keyed in Pap's contact!
PAPS PLEASE DON'T KILL US!!!!
THE PICTURE WAS NOT PUT IN BY ME!!!!!!
But no.. That wasn't enough.
Cos Paps found out what we did when she received weird smses from Pooty's 'new number'
So... We promised we would delete her number from the phone.. Before that...

LOL WERSHER. PAPS, WE LOVE U AND U KNOW WE DO.
Anyway, we went to Parkway cos we wanted to relieve sadness, disappointment & whatever frustration after receiving our results. I was really scared to tell my mommy at first but I had to tell her anyway.

Roo to Peng: Does Mom know I got back my results already?
Mom(who overheard): You got back your results already?
Peng: Nope, she didn't know.

Roo: Er... Ya. I did really badly.
Mom(with a frown): How bad is bad?
Roo: I failed everything.
Mom: HUH????
Roo: HAHA. Just kidding. But my GPA dropped.
Mom: By how much?
Roo: To 2.9
Mom: Zai Si Ah Ler! An Zhua Kee Uni! (eng translation: Want to die ah you! How to go uni!)
(Continue watching korean drama)

Yup! It wasn't that bad.
Anyway, back to the point, we went to arcade to destress! HAHA
WE BROKE THE BBALL RECORD!!! WOW!!!!
Then we played other random things and started spending a bomb on the toy machine thing that was impossible to win.

Some really nice uncle gave us the bear he caught!!!
And so.. Now he's officially known as GUO PUPU

Whine. I NEED ICE CREAM

WOOHOO. It's the hols already!!! Was it the hols the last time I posted? I don't think so.

THIS SEM REALLY SUCKS. I think I can start digging a hole and burying myself. I want to bury Chaochao & Xiangxiang with me too. WHY BURY ME? Cos it'd be better than facing my mom's wrath when she comes to know of my results. :( I think I did really badly.

I'm not supposed to here typing now. I should be off to Popo's tutoring Gerald. Oh well.

The hols start off with a full schedule. First week and we're busying making money. MONEY MONEY MONEY. You can never get enough of it. But I'm working odd jobs so hopefully I don't need to collect pocket money from dee & mee this hols.

ROO'S LIST OF THINGS TO DO
Many many things.

Meanwhile, I hope to be able to set up the blogshop soon. It'd be like fulfilling one of my dreams. Doing what I love and getting paid for it :)
Ideas ideas. I need a brain blast.
OH! AND THE THREADLESS CONTEST!!!

Officially pronounce me BUSY.

And here's a shoutout to a monkey swinging on the tree.

HAPPY 18 BANANA BIRTHDAY WAYNIBABY :)

Pootie Pang Wei Rong

This post is a punishment because I lost to the Poot twice (actually more than 2 times) at 7 hand poker. I'm better off player Hodlum Poker in real life.
I feel like a primary school kid typing essays because I did something wrong like throw wet toilet tissue up onto the ceiling or something along those lines. Haha.

WeiRong WeiRong WeiRong. Where do I even begin.

Well. We've been together for almost 6 months now. I've been counting. It seems as though time passes so quickly because it felt like yesterday when he stayed out till 1am waiting for me to sneak out on his 18th birthday. That night will always be etched within my memory for as long as live; regardless of limited and short-term that is (here I'm actually refering to my brain memory space if you don't get it. Perhaps my life span as well since according to Poot, I live life so dangerously). It was a night of tears, excitement, lasts, and of course firsts. I never thought any guy would do that for me. I was really speechless and dumbfounded and my mind was a blank when I took those steps. (Luckily for you Poot cause if I were fully aware of what I was doing, I might have taken 3 steps back instead. HAHA. Just kidding)

People keep telling me that when we're together, we don't even act like a couple, we act more like closely knit friends. Well, we've been friends from the day we decided to do projects together. 1st Sem was the bomb. I don't mind when people say that; I'm not into the whole lovey dovey smoochy-woochy thing. I'd rather build my relationships with the foundation of friendships that lasts forever, and that's how I feel with him. I thought it would be really weird if the two of us were together alone since most of the time is our jovial clique of 5 or more. I realised that I feel so much at ease with him, like nothing's ever changed and we're still close friends. We act as per normal; this includes the retardessy and the unglamness, in front of each other. We're who we are when we're together. Isn't that what love is about? People say 'Love is Blind'. Well, it's not. Love is to fully accept the other when your eyes are open to both their positive and negative sides; to accept who the other is as a person. I feel glad that both of us are transparent in front of each other. It's scary how sometimes he can read my mind when I did not even say a thing, or how at times, we'd sms each other at the same time because we're concerned or have each other in our thoughts. Being with WeiRong, I feel like I've gained not only a boyfriend, but a bestfriend as well. Someone who's like my Muse.

Over the past 6 months, I've learned alot. He trains me to be more punctual! (He makes me pay him $2 everytime I'm late!!!) I think he's also learnt his lesson on playing me out (He gets fined $5 everytime he does that) Like most relationships, our has its rough patches as well; nothing's a smooth field of green. We argued, disagreed because of things like priorities and busy schedules which leaves less time for each other. And when I thought that Poot would never turn green, he did! This relationship is truly based on determination (to make this last), effort (to keep things together even when things go wrong), tears (that we shed along the way), belief (that we can make it happen), time (we try to squeeze out to make time for togetherness), consideration (of the other's position, giving way for each other), friendship (that is timeless), and love (that grows even more bountiful over time). Of course, help from friends like Paps and Ahjuma made this happen as well :)

If I could use a metaphor for this love, it would be that of a tree. It starts from something small, but with the appropriate cultivation, perserverance, care, love, and of course help from God, it will grow larger and larger, higher and higher, deeper and deeper by the day till one day, even when a typhoon occurs, the tree will not be uprooted because it's so firmly stuck unto the ground it would not even budge. I really hope this lasts and I will try everything I can to make it happen!

Look at the time. 11:11. They say that when you look at the clock and it's 11:11, someone misses you. Maybe someone misses me right now :)
