YAWN.
staying home almost everyday for the past month has made me lose the momentum of life.
i feel like a sloth now - unmotivated and lazy to no end.
its no wonder ray is mad at me for wasting the days away.
but then again, he decides to play soccer on saturday afternoons - which is the only day of a week we can meet for more than 3 hours.
and his matches are usually 5 - 7pm, meaning i can only meet him around 9-ish for late dinner.
so i can be mad at him too, right? lol.
---
decided to get my lazy bum off the chair today and i helped cook dinner!
made tempura vegetables, which included lotus roots, brinjal, carrots, broccoli.
it was supposed to be a beautiful sight like what you see in restaurants, having a vibrant mix of colours and perfectly cooked batter.
except that for some reason or other, they turned out to look like each other and i cant tell lotus roots from brinjal. =(
so sad.
but i wont give up!
i'll try to cook something else tomorrow!
so my dad can eat happily while watching his favourite joanne peh on tv! =)

just watched Harold and Kumar today.
its a super duper comedy - its vulgar, obscene and DAMN racist.
but still, it's a good laugh so everyone should go catch it! =)
--
my heart and mind are feeling so heavy.
i have no idea why, but i seem to have a knack to worry things out of proportion.
i get so bothered about countless issues around me, so much that it keeps me awake at night.. and it doesnt really help that im having my holidays now which means i have time aplenty to think and think and think.
i need somebody to talk to...
someone who wont judge me, who'd listen attentively like nothing else in the world matters more than my feelings... and then at the end of the conversation, who'd not berate me nor belittle my troubles but instead, give me a hug and tell me im not alone.
these days, i talk with my heart more than with anyone.
where is my somebody?

i woke up at 8am this morning to prepare lunch!
and i forgot to take photos of the bento.. sigh.
so anyway, i travelled for about.. 1 hour to Tanjong Pagar and had lunch with him. =)
i noticed that singaporeans actually REALLY use tissue packets to "chope" seats at the food court!
it seems like its an unspoken rule that EACH packet stands for one seat, i saw one table with about 5 packets of tissues! lol so auntie lor.
hmmmm everyone else is having their exams, ray is working and my brother is back in sydney.
im so BORED at home!
shall go for a haircut next week.

new skin!
i really love this one, it's so me right! hahaha
my brother is coming back this thursday, 5.40pm.
and this time, he is coming back to his family only.
but it's okay, because he has his sister to keep him accompany!
he wants me to accompany him shop for winter wear, books and clothes. wooo
though he made it clear that he wont pay for ANY of my shopping, it beats moping around the house everyday just to wait for 6pm.
a stingray stings.
ouch.
my stingray doesnt have much time for me these days... =((
maybe i should barbecue him.
PS if you'd like to do me a favour and advertise my online shop, do ask me for the pretty pretty avatar you see on the right!! =D

Watched Rogue Crocodile with my parents today.
It wasn't too bad, rather entertaining in fact, except that we were surrounded by very undesirable public nuisance.
I dont understand why do people pay $10 for a movie ticket, and then CHIT CHAT in the theatre.
Come on, if you wanna chit chat, go to STARBUCKS lah. you'll still get change out of your $10 for a drink you know.
and then there's the other kind... where a bunch of girls watch movie together and they go "eeeeee!!! eeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!" or, "aiyoooo.. the dog so poor thing..."
you bought tickets for ROGUE CROCODILE, so you oughta expect what's coming.
i mean, we feel for that dog too but seriously, cant you keep your retarded comments to yourself?
you are not sitting at home on your bloody sofa, so please, stop being a public nuisance in a CINEMA.
I have a very strong, sudden urge to SEE JELLYFISHES.
does anyone know where can i get to see them, at a cheap price?? HAHA!
PS I'm actually thinking of moving to livejournal... Hmmms.

HELLO EVERYBODY!!
You've probably received my email already.. But still, here's a gentle reminder to
VISIT MYDRESSINGROOM!!!!!
I spent almost 5 WHOLE DAYS, and i mean like, 17 hours a day on the com JUST TO DO UP MY WEBSITE.
it looks damn plain and simple I know, but trust me, livejournal is a bit*h to work with because it doesnt support HTML but has an entire system of its own.
And then I spent the past 5 days learning how to use Photoshop myself as well, via the Almighty Internet.
In the past 5 days, I truly appreciated the beauty of the Internet because I learnt that with it, almost nothing is impossible.
(Except of course, a drag-and-drop function to build websites.)
Everyday, with the help of the Internet, it felt like I could work a little magic.
And it's no easy feat for a lazy girl like me who's not very tech-savvy you know.
And since I learnt HTML, Photoshop and a bit of Livejournal coding ALL BY MYSELF, I hereby declare myself
SMART, RESOURCEFUL AND A FAST LEARNER.
Thankyouverymuch. =)
Oh and I digress.
PLEASE PLEASE VISIT MY DRESSING ROOM, AND ASK YOUR FRIENDS TO VISIT TOO.
PLEASE JOIN THE MAILING LIST, AND ASK YOUR FRIENDS TO JOIN TOO.
If you do that, I'll be eternally grateful.
I literally pumped my sweat, blood and money into this, so I really want to make it work.
Here's the all-new logo!
I'm probably gonna print this as little tags and namecards as well, because I like it very much!
My dear friends, please tell me what you think!
Finally "finished work" early tonight at 3.15am. I've been sleeping at 4-4.30am the past few nights!
Off to sleep.
Sentosa on Saturday! :D

WOOOOOOOO i've completed a hell lot of tasks today!!
hmmmmm. okay, maybe not a lot, but for a complete HTML-idiot like me, it sure feels like my brain had a great workout the entire afternoon!
and it's no April's Fool joke!
hehhhehe i hope everything will turn out well.
photoshoots in the next 2 days, and then there'll be new collections up again!
of course i'm talking about my online shop. hehhehe
shall announce the website all over again when im done fixing it!
---
i'm a small girl, with big dreams.
i went shopping alone yesterday at far east plaza, for half an afternoon.
it was probably the most inspirational shopping trip i ever had, because being alone, i had a lot of time to think and ponder about every little thoughts that crossed my mind.
i paid a lot more attention to the people around me too.
this time, it wasnt merely shopping for myself, but i felt like i was shopping as a third person.
i looked at the things that interests myself and others, and even thought from the point of view of the shop-owners.
and then i felt soooooo motivated suddenly.
it occurred to me that anything is possible; as long as i put my heart into it. (and have sufficient capital too)
so... i've decided that i will start working towards my new goal - of opening my own boutique.
it's not an online shop im talking about, which is my stepping stone, but a real brick-and-mortar retail outlet.
and of course, it'll be called My Dressing Room. =)
but while i was considering my future business proposal, reality (and ray) checks in.
what about my hotel manager dream?
well for one, i cant be a hotel manager for the rest of my life,
and two, life's too short to focus on only ONE passion right?
hehhehehe.
so i say, i may be small, but i have BIG DREAMS. *hoorayyy!*
