No Espanol ~~

Hola...
Sadly..I have to say adios to my 3 term pipe dream of learning spanish ... :(
Ahhhh ..si si
I just dnt have enuf edollars
and its nobody else's fault but mine ;p
~ for squandering my edollars on the likes of dear old TBS
.. i guess my skirt wasnt short enough ;p

School is into its second week and the most happening place is the library
says alot about our sch culture aii
Sadly the freshmen bash seems lackluster soo far
no buzz no excitment
and what kinda cheesy theme is Rendezvous??
urgh...
tacky !!!!!!
and it doesnt help that Hotel Rendezvous is right beside the school
doesnt seem very good if your event brings to mind a dubious 3 star hotel does it..


and it conjours up images of JC proms with themes like "starry night" or "retro night" ;p
with girls in dowdy Daniel Yam dresses and big hair looking like the 40 yr old aunties which the dresses were actually meant for...
~guys in loud shirts and even louder ties (their dad's) ...
with enough gel in their hair to brick the great wall of china..
the food is always bad (nobody actually eats it)
the music worse..
and the fashion of the teachers chaperoning ....worst...


but i guess that depends on which shcool you came from..
i noe SOME PEOPLE buy Hugo Boss suits for their prom..
ahh well..
but my prom wasnt all that bad...
I even had a prom date who actualy came to fetch me in a *gasp* mercedes...
taxi ;p


but anihow it was a real sweet move and very "high school"
~fulfilled my lifelong wish of being like a typical american teenager..
although noo.. it wasnt very romantic and i dint have get a corsage... ;p

thats what silly thoughts you get from watching too many movies

i dnt think my sch actually had a prom date tradition -- too cheena
most of the guys are soo "traditionally chinese"..i think alot of them still have the same mentality as my dad's generation about women ..
which is ..that we, women shd stay at home .. cook and be a good wife/mother/cleaner
.....
Men


I use to think that SMU guys are different
that they are more open minded
about things like having a wife that earns more than them ..
or who aspire to be a CEO
and that they are not intimidated or put-off by a girl that is better than them .. and more driven than them


But is that true ??
Or are the nature of men such that
they admire girls who are driven and successful and smart
they like to look at girls who dress daringly..
They enjoy talking to girls who are friendly and speak their minds


BUT when they have a girlfriend...
they expect the girl to dress more conservetively..
to be willing to stay at home to take care of the kids
to ease talking soo much to other guys
and be there when they are needed...


Are these acceptable sacrifices that a girl has to make ..
some do it galdly because they are willing to change for love
but what if you are not willing??
kh once asked mi ...
shouldnt people be willing to change for love??
or sumting along that line


I use to think ..yes..
that love is all powerful...
but is there a limit ??
how much are u willing to change yourself for the person you love
shd we accept each other for who we are...
or impose changes

ahh welll.....
Just wish they will outlaw Daniel Yam dresses from all proms ;p

_____Have You Ever ?_____

Have you ever been in love

Been in love so bad

You'd do anything to make them understand

Have you ever had someone steal your heart away

You'd give anything to make them feel the same

Have you ever searched for words to get you in their heart

But you don't know what to say

And you don't know where to start

Have you ever found the one

You've dreamed of all of your life

You'd do just anything to look into their eyes

Have you finally found the one you've given your heart to

Only to find that one won't give their heart to you

Have you ever closed your eyes and

Dreamed that they were there

And all you can do is wait for the day when they will care

Pick and Bite ...

hmmm that just doesnt sound quite right..
i mean ... pick and bite ???
sounds like very bad table manners or very bad hygiene ..
definately not appetising ;p


But ....
it has nice food non-the less
haha


Nice dim-sum-ish cusine .. in nice kopitiam setting
just that the walk there is nto that nice
it is not along the way to the anywhere unless u happen to be going to the library
which is not often ....


But i think this will change soon
need to study
need to be prepared
need to be on top of the game again ..


i can feel my body tinggling with anticipation
i can smell the scent of an academic challenge
ohhh...
a fight
*sadistic grin*
im ready
bring it on
*inspirational music ~always the theme song of Rocky~ plays in the background*
and i raise with flames in the background ....


ohh deja vu... isint that like soooooooo action hero


okie.. how lame *rolls eyes and looses them*


;p


ahh need some motivation
i feel soo unprepared
soo inferior a student
need to find back my confidence


but to feel good
you need to look good too
sooo ...
nooo moreeee full meals
im looking ... err fulll figured to put it very politely ..
since we are in a polite society
but i dnt mind if i get a honest answer for once
everytime i ask ppl if im fatter .. they say noo
ohhh please.. can u all stop torturing me and tell me the truth
it will make me feel bad
yesss....
but bad is good
because bad will make u angry
and in anger there is great power
and with great power comes from great responsibility...
~hmm opps... nope thats from spiderman..


let me try again
with great power comes
great force
hmmm a good jedi you will make ..


OKAY
the moon is rising
corny levels rising uncontrolably
i better log off
before i do anymore unrepearable harm to my blog
and my reputation
and any opinion of my sanity


ciao
adios
~i hope i get spanish
*crossed fingers*

Never Wana Live in Hong Kong

Wooo the worse trip of my life sadly
Hong KOng was NOT what i expected it to be
Either I dint pay enough attention to those Hongkie dramas or Jackie Chan really brainwashed me with all those visit HK campaigns ;p


10 reasons why i will never wana live in HK
1) Most importantly-- although their currency is weaker then Singapore's-- their standard of living is higher... everything except booze and dim sum is expensive ;p


2) On the same line .. their shoes are freaking expensive !! S$50 a pair on avg, on sale !!! WTF !!!..Charles and Keith seems heaven-sent in comparison. ~No self-respecting gal can survive without a huge variety of afforadable shoes ...


3) the air is thick and smoggy and hot ... walking out in the streets even breathing is a chore.. and when its not sultry hot... it pouring wet


4) your view is limited to as far as the next building -- or if you are short like me.. the next guy in front of you... castrophobia alert !!!
If you think walking along the takasimaya/ wisma linkway on a saturday evening is a nightmare, u havent walked along the streets of hk on a normal weekday .. it seems like the whole population of hk is out in the streets which is weird considering that if given a choice i would rather be hiding in the santuary of my air-conditioned hotel room.


And there seem to be some competition going on in the area planning commmittee-- "lets see who can cramp as many buildings in a streets as possible" -- no space is too small to be left alone.. god ... i was soo happy when i travelled inland into shenzhen... finally i see rolling hills and wide open spaces.. the sky !!! i never realised how much space, nature, clean air is so important to me. Maybe thats why i enjoy treking.. answering my own call of nature ;p


5) A fashion capital .. HK is NOT
1 word.. weird!! Yes.. they have alot of yummy foreign brands like missy sixty ... Yes ...they have alot of nice skinny gals .. soo why are they all hiding thier lithe bodies under many many layers of clothes with crazy colour coordination ... i get a headache just walking into some of their stores... ~*oww too ..many colours.. my eyes ..cant take it *


6) the customs is slower then Malaysia's.... u would have thought that Aisan.. Chinese people can tell other asians apart easier... pui ! The custom officer was staring at our photographs like we are usuing fake passports ... as if everybody is dying to stay in HK or China for that matter .. robin got it worse... just because his passport pic showed him with LONG hair... and now he has SHORT hair ... DUH!...


7) ... errr... ahh well.... i guess i was miserably sick too... thus making hk seem terribly horrible ~ whatever that means


Anywaz.... i am happy to be back
Singapore is not perfect... but for now its home
and its home sweet home for me .. :)

HongKong ~ here i come

Freaking not enough sleep from Smux camp..
Trying to print out my travel plans for my mum
woke up at 4 am to pack and prepare..
for a 8 am flight
*yawnz*
I hope its all worth it ...


Many things have changed in the relationship
Bec of a few unexpected news
Perhaps it is what we need
but i wished we could have taken a easier route
But im glad i am who i am to be able to make the decisions i need to make
This is a story i reserve for later to tell ...
maybe never ...


Anywaz..
HK awaits us ..
for better or for worse
lets hope i get my money's worth ...


~Will buy goodies back for everybody ..
*maucks*
