Im back in hall! So I realised I forgot to bring my favourite facial mist (Salvatore Ferragamo's Tuscan Soul) along w the super hydrating lip balm (under the same line) :( Have been reminding myself for weeks :/
Okay so anyway mommy bought me Hada Labo Hydrating Lotion yay (after trying the samples from DnD) today!

Hairdresser at salon probably didnt know what she was doing and she had long nails so they kept scratching my face, HOW IRRITATING. :/

MY HALL ROOM LOOKS LIKE SOME PARTY with pink and stardust and glitter and more pink and blinking purple lights which illuminate the dark roommmmmmmm :) so awesome! If only rugs came cheaper, our room would be the coolest ever ;)

Yay HSSFOC was nothing less than fun :) and there's D&D next week! Apart from Mr and Ms Hades (Jasper and Anting), I'd also be rooting for Ms Odin SALLY and Ms Hera CANDICE :) I hope one of them wins! Lulu's cousin, Aaron pulled out from pageant as Mr Loki :/ We only realised he was in the same camp AFTER the camp. Would've been crazily awkward if he was my SP ha :/
So hall results'll be out today! Hoping V & I will get the same hall as people we know like Pree, Lys, Sal, and my other OG mates so we don't have to go for hall camp. :) looking forward to school but can't bear to leave work and my family behind in the Northeastern part of the island :( Lulu'll be in the west so it's still fine meeting him...
I hope I won't be homesick and everyone stays in the same (awesome, with squeaky clean toilets) hall ^^

Promised @ohhellolove to start blogging so I'll try! Plus Im really bored :<
Anyway will blog soon cause there's work tomorrow and Ive to wake up at 630am! Hope everyone comes down to support the warehouse sale yay :)

Two pairs of new shoes - a pair of clogs from Rubi for $5 and a pair of suede leather mocassins at $39, Im still lusting over the TODS roman inspired sandals........... Number One.

Call me a coward, but I don't like to be the subject of conversations which explains my hiatus from blogging. I don't enjoy talking too much about myself, the people around me and set myself up for more insecurities. It's gonna stay this way and I'll come and go as I like. I've found better avenues to express my thoughts (my somewhat makeshift moleskine). It's not the best but it's definitely better than this. (not like anyone still reads apart from Vanessa and Pree but it's a good change. I'll still be updating you girls on my life don't worry, ILY :) )

If I travel to a new destination once a year and die at the age of 85, wow I'd only travel to 85 places. (DUE TO DIFFERENT DEFINITIONS OF WHAT A COUNTRY REALLY IS,) there are about 193-250 countries in the world.

what......... :(

Omg you you you are the reasons I stay away from T right now get a life babes.

Urine Therapy
Urine is a sterile substance that contains high amounts of antibodies, vitamins and hormones. Through trial and error, people throughout the centuries have come to realize that urine has extremely powerful healing properties. When applied to the skin, urine can not only eliminate acne, but it can dramatically reduce redness and skin irritation. Urine is the most concentrated first t
i just waxed my face so was looking for solutions on redness of face-and this was the first thing i saw!!!!!!!!

-conversation with Krish. Haha
Now I'm wondering how anyone would've realised the goodness of urine in the first place and...why were you experimenting with your pee man....................

cannot take it, last warning man.
anyway finally applied for smu for @agb. yes finally i can do things i wanna like sit back relax read a book.
and of course, source for jobs. i wanna be employed seriously :'(

everyone's getting calls from smu, receiving letters from nus and ntu. except me.
what am i doing and what's happening? i dont wanna be the only one not enjoying school life again like how i was stucked in year one in 2009. the feeling sucks to see everyone moving forward and progressing to the next phase of their lives and me delaying my life by yet another year omg this is shit.

March, be good to me.
Leighton's top (or maybe dress, idk) is TO DIE FOR.
And so are the heels.

Won't you agree with me, that Chuck & Blair are the best thing that could happen (to each other too?)?

the rain has stopped WOW! :)
the rain's good for sleeping. but definitely not good for work- i'd worry about daddy cause his job wouldn't be safe in the stormy weather. and mommy will be clumsy when she goes to work! & i hate getting drenched in rain water because it totally ruins my hair & i'd feel sianz.

so anyway i was late for work today thanks to the rain, i had to walk under the shelter which was like 3x the usual distance. omfg freaking lame!
but yeah i had like, 6.5 hours of work & that's it cause i managed to sell all the remaining p'apple tarts & few boxes of cornflake cookies (yes sales for this is so stubborn) so good! :D so the supervisor just let me off early hehehe hope the last two days are like that too ^^
and i tried looking for eileen @ scape but guess what i went to the open area instead of the mall hahha -.- and turns out, i met shawn instead of E at the entrance of taka. haha Im sick to death of taka already seriously. and chinese new year songs. omg. they are even in my dreams omg :/ can't wait for teaching job cause then daddy will stop saying that i won't wake up in the morning! :( & yea i can work with alethea n jermaine :B teeheex.

alright i bought more stuff today thx t the never ending sales zyayz!!!!!! ribbon print rubi flip flops & sailor-coloured espadrilles ^^ hehe awesome buys. am im thinking if i should get myself the ribbon clutch. it is TDF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! since months ago i've said that :@!

why are people still reading this space! HAHA @PREELYOU @VANESSASHJ

Guess what!!!!!!!!! I got the beach bag from Accessorize after all! Well BF went down to town with me today ^^ what an angel! He's God-sent really :) hehe and we headed to Taka after lunch at Clarke Quay (Safra Card membership allowed us a free 3-course meal & we ordered a cheese fondue not knowing there was a 30% off it on Saturdays! Lucky or what? :B And cookies n cream milkshake was heaven in a cup!) where I first saw the bag (it was lurking at this TOTALLY insignificant corner of the shop) and IT. Was. G-O-N-E.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( Sadness engulfs*
Hahaha but no I didnt give up cause I remembered the ION Accessorize and woohoo IT CAUGHT MY EYE right as I walked into the shop yippeeeee 62 to 18 WHAT A GOOD BUY :)
Yay thankies dearrrrrrrr ;)

anw, surprise gathering for andrew was awesome last night, :) so glad his friends made it after all. especially since they all had to wait. and jorji for getting back to me fast enough before the whole thing started (well i had to send him a fb message cause i didnt hv his cell number haha what a loser i am SIGHZ)
yay & muchhhh thanks to audrey for the dinner OMG it was mad awesome all the korean bbq ;) i think imma gain weight soon with all the food i'm eating and CNY is coming!

SPEAKIN OF WHICH
Once, I offered pineapple tarts samples to this really fit guy (I know, what a mistake, WHY WOULD THEY EVEN ACCEPT IT RIGHT HAHAHA) & he just totally looked at me & chuckled, 'Omg NO it's 200kcal per piece of tart you know it's insane how long do I have to stay on the treadmill man!??!?!'

Idk, is he serious? Like, a piece of pineapple tart is 1/10 of a typical adult's daily caloric intake? WHUT.

okthxbye TEEHEE

AIYA I needa stop thinking about Accessorize, the beach bag, the pretty notebooks (3 dollars OMFG wish I hadnt gone in) and the fucking amazingly beautifully pretty beach sandals ugghzxhz shuddup valerie lin.

 Yes I need to stop singing 'Shed A Tear' in public. I did it once today at Accessorize and then the radio in the shop started playing 'Rocketeer' HOW EMBARRASSING? HAHAHA

Anw, Accessorize's having a major coolzx sale, 70%! Told the bf about the beach bag going at 62 but now at 18 & his reaction, 'BUY!' never have i gotten such an enthusiastic reaction from him :B I think my cheapo shopping skills are rubbing off him that he won't miss good deals anymore like Cotton On's 'buy 2nd piece at half price' too! His reaction upon hearing this, 'OMG!!!!!! CAN WE GO TOMORROW?' HOW CUTE :B
JSYK, we're both fans of Cotton On, Rubi & Body because they are amazingly comfy and easy to match (especially since we buy clothes there in basic colours!) :) (Not to mention, affordable for the cheapo me) And I really really love the outlet despite them selling outdated stuff cause they still look good and why should I complain :)

And Im still mad hungry even after supper from my bro. Madness he put like 20 slices of cut chilli into my bowl of soup Imma take revenge seriously it's making me SO DAMN HUNGRY RIGHT NOW I CANNOT SLEEP. This is what chilli does to me- whet my appetite SO MUCH. I know. And I never grow fat. And I love eating spicy food. And thus, I waste more money on food. FML much.

And yes 5 more days to the end of work at Taka!!!!!!! Cant wait, though Ive gotta admit Imma miss Shirley, Kelly, Alex and entertaining myself with the way people opposite stare at me. Haters will always hate :) Shall let them indulge in all that gossip they want to even if it's about me cause I don't give a shit about shallow people who gossip about my looks. (yay strong girl ftw!)

OKAY IMMA CREATE A SELF-BAN: No stepping into Accessorize alone (unless with Mommy or Bf)!! Here's what I bought tday;-
two pink flower hairclips,
two purple flower hairclips (one of which imma swap w shirley, for her white flower one),
pretty undies with bird prints!!!!!!!!!!! (Sized Europe S AND I CAN WEAR WOWZ the saleslady just doesnt believe me -.- 'are you sure you can wear this? It's our smallest already. HAHA), pretty je'taime stickers :),
hair ties and pretty hairclips for my precious cousins! ^^~
Russian doll earrings (which were imo still ex when it was going at 6+ during the 50% sale the other time. GOOD MOVE, VAL. Patience is duly rewarded YAY)
Can't wait for my pay to be here here here here here! And AGPS called me this morning! :C
Can't wait to get a new job in a primary school (minus teaching Science FML. No maybe Fthekids'Lives.)

TEEHEE

behind every 'i'm fine' has its story. when will someone ever speak up and care just a little bit more. it could save a life. every minute someone is crying, committing suicide over relationship issues, getting depressed over body image, dying or struggling at their death beds. life is hard as it already is. loneliness depresses. have you ever observed people when you're out? maybe someone just needs someone to talk to, to have a quick meal with, to have someone even acknowledging their very existence and just that. what if the person you just irresponsibly lashed out at had a bad day at work? i had my very encounter of meeting a bored man who said he saw me as his daughter and gave me solid advice as to what i should do when i start working. wise words from a man who has had 40 years of working experience. most people just shun strangers. i want to embrace difference (not the extremes though, doubt i'm ready for that yet) because behind each man and behind each action has its story and we probably ought to lend a listening ear to let him know that he is not alone afterall, and that there still is hope in living on.

so here we go, 200th post!!!!! :)
anywayyyyyyy Im obsessed with kevjumba & nigahiga once again they just make tickle me so much (like nice tickle fights yup)
& guess what, sample king came again this afternoon (no surprise) but it made all of us mad when he popped down (again) to settle his dinner there at the square. omfg i really wish he'd suffer from a sore throat so bad that he feels bad freeloading on all that samples for the past two weeks HAHA :B

anyway i had an awesome time spending yesterday off work with my boyfriend :B eating cheap sushi and walking down orchard, life can't get better!!! we ate and stuffed ourselves with good finger food ^^ yay cant wait for work to be over so i can resume life like that.
speaking of which, xh called me the other day (like duh finally) and asked if i could go down to relief teach a class (or two idk,) and i said NO bloodz i totally regret this but hey they asked me in the wee hours (okay like early 6am) & i was too drowsy please :( i would say yes though! i called back & they gave me a weird response Imma totally call back after chinese new year & aleth told me that rosyth called another girl down for relief teaching when i called first ugh omg hate this! but prolly priorities' to those who are alumni :(

-

okay now on a serious note, im really hating my job because i cannot stand the sight of those really (ought to be sensible but are) somewhat bitchy *ladies. pfft they make the 10 hours pass slower than ever! thankfully for kelly shirley weiting jill & alexandra :) i'm glad they make the mood lighthearted! james (omg i need to tell him smthg after cny fmllllllllllz) bernard & the lil boy dan are funz toozzxz :B
and sample king (albeit annoying) provided some entertainment value *bows*

-
finally.
i hate double standards. haha fuck my life (eileen knows me well >:)
FML FML FML

HAIYA SHUDDUP & STOP BEING A BITCH VALERIE

MLK Day

Yes this is not the America but I was just thinking, what if the 21st century had a MLK around? Or Mother Theresa? Florence Nightingale? Lim Bo Seng? These heroes can never be replaced. We need someone like them to ignite life into life. Catastrophes everywhere, people killing, people dying.

Life is really sad.

yummy.

We're 23months old! :D
I'm so glad I have you by my side all the time (:
It's a pleasant feeling to know I have you every moment even though you're physically absent. :)

Some people may think it's silly to measure a relationship by time/ to celebrate each month but I know you & I both believe that time allows us to understand each other better and to discover more about the whole relationship and these keep us going.
Every minute, day and month I have with you matters because it means we've gone through more and have grown older with each other :)

I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad

Carry you around when your arthritis is bad
Oh all I wanna do is grow old with you


I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches
Build you a fire if the furnace breaks
Oh it could be so nice, growing old with you


I'll miss you
Kiss you
Give you my coat when you are cold

Need you
Feed you
Even let ya hold the remote control


So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink
Put you to bed when you've had too much to drink
I could be the man who grows old with you
I wanna grow old with you

It's like another milestone Im glad we've made it this far and I cant wait for 24th month!!!!!!

 Im not angry or anything, Im just REALLY amazed by how despicable/cowardly/childish/bitchy/fucking stupid some people can get :)

I never thought I was wrong. Neither have I ever thought I was right. Everyone around told me to not feel bad but I did anyway. I don't know why, but this is just the way my heart works.

Today, I learnt that my heart was wrong. I was always wrong about someone (the only one who is cause everyone tried to prove this point since day1 but I stood by my decision.)
Today, I've learnt someone's true colours.
I'm disappointed in myself.
You aren't the most important person to me, but I honestly am* nice to you anyway ('was' now.)
Everyday as I learn more about you, my respect for you fades.

Yknw, 0 x 1000 is still, ZERO?
that's how much respect I have for you.
still, I'd give you an A for Effort.

Nice try there.

Oh I decided to be nice and give Bronte one too....

:D teehee, isn't this an adorable one!

Anyway, ripped this off limmygal's lj.
'Submission involves alot more den jst backin dwn. & Submission is certainly nt abt bein weak. It is an act of grace & humility, an act of love & investment in e r/s, done w hope tt e other'll reciprocate. & it's an evn greater sacrifice 2 stay true 2 e commitment till e other party does. submission is wonderfully healing, & non-submission is hurtful. E greatest fallacy is tt refusin 2 submit results in stalemate whr we r in state of true deadlock & no1 gets hurt. However, tis so-called impasse brings disappointment despair disillusionment. Sometimes it brings death. Consider a husband on brink of divorce finally deciding 2 submit 2 his wife, 2 demonstrate his luv 4 her; 2 brk e stalemate. Imagine hw he felt whn she hugged him bck. Imagine hw they wished they'd lovingly submitted 2 ea other earlier. Bottom line of tis is tt tis marriage emerged stronger cus both husband & wife saw folly of playing zero-sum-game. Tis is a foolish & dangerous game we play. E longer we choose nt 2 submit, e longer we hold onto excuses of 'dignity' and 'pride',e bigger the end disappointment. Because whats more important than 'being right' is 'being loved'.'



Can't be more right then this!

On a sidenote, I've been really easily irritable these days. With silly immaturity, with pokings, with annoying people, with crazy exams and even MIO TV. Im glad Im still strong, surviving, ALBEIT being unhealthy (*coughs).
Thanks for tolerating me, you, you, you & you! I know it's not easy and you're going through just as much as I am, if not more. :) I'm glad I've such people around, those who love me for the dainty little shit I do sometimes, for the overenthusiasm I have for so many things, and for withstanding who ZSQY on my part.


I just can't wait for the end of exams (i.e. think LR, A levels, Prelims is gonna be over soon!). Izzy Pree Sandy & Vally are going on bimbo shopping next Thursday after P5, the short cheap window-shopping thrill before hitting the books, hardcore. 
:) Going Wild Wild Wet someday soon!!! :) I really wanna go RWS and USS too, but these can all wait. :)

Im loving Lit a lot more since I did my paper today. I guess Miss Chew is right. As Lit students, we can't help but feel sensitive to lotsa issues, especially those pertaining to behaviour, attitudes and morals. The way we present ourselves is important yet not superficial. And I will need my dose of 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' after the A levels are over. All these plans make me wanna do it once, well and fearlessly.
