MUST WATCH!!!

oh hello im alive

2009-12-12T11:45:00.002+08:00

omg i haven updated for soooo long, okay i feel guilty now.

nowadays i rather tweet than blog because i can tweet anywhere anytime and they are just short random, sometimes weird thoughts that pop out in my head. so if you want, follow me on twitter ya? i like to read people's tweets too! kills my boredom on the train

oh oh oh but soon, i can stop taking trains!!! yayyyyy

i relish the thought of not sharing my seat with a smelly you know who or pervs whom i have ever met before but will meet, somehow. *my friend did! a few times already*

Just because i completed stage 1 and started on stage 2 of my driving, cool shit isnt it?

i never thought that i can learn driving that quickly because im too KIA- SEE. Well, if i can do it, so can you!

you people out there, please learn driving soon because when you start working, you will be too tired after work to go learn driving.

believe me, the concentration level must be supremely high!

i hope i can park by christmas! haha my driving license will be the best present for nick.

late though but it doesnt matter, haha

update

2009-11-20T11:30:00.002+08:00

I just had my first paper yesterday and honestly, i dont feel anything. No sense of dread, anxiety, hope, strangely nothing at all. I just went there, armed and ready to write my hand off. Even though i forgot some of my management stuff, like the Job Characteristics Model( yes my bad) I still think I did quite ok haha.

Now i have to prepare for my cost and benefit and forensic science and im done for this sem!

I feel really glad that this sem has been very relaxing and given my lazyass attitude, I studied quite alot already so that would mean my results will be alright? hee

I was out the other day with the girls who are already out there, fighting in the real world. They are real warriors, so proud and happy for them! Working with all those obtuse and narrow minded people is something that i will dread when i go out into the real world. FIGHT ON!

Like 4 years ago we were just young ducks wading in the pool called A levels and spent every day in school playing in class, talking in the library and fooling around. Now, the girls are working, the guys are about to grad( can you imagine JONATHAN as a banker??? I cant imagine the boy who walk down the imaginary staircase being any serious ) and soon, we will all get OLD!!!

I think im in a quarter life crisis. premature though.

sorry that the blog has been quite boring because i didnt take any pictures and my life is just about studying now. Interesting, not?

wish

2009-11-17T13:06:00.002+08:00

how i wish i have shoes like her. oh yea and her entire wardrobe.

i love reading her style blog because she isnt too skinny unlike Fashion t**** and her style is more casual and pretty.

i think i shld start wearing heels more often. they are starting to get mouldy.

bahhh

back to studying

i just want to say..

nightmare

2009-11-05T12:59:00.002+08:00

I had a very vivid nightmare last night. It was so clear until i can remember what happened in it and who was involved. It started at a coffee shop and I was hanging out with a bunch of friends. For some reason, i went to a table full of malays and talked to him. I asked one of them which school he was from and he told me. I went on to blabber alot of stuff and then i forgot his name and school. He got angry and i got scared so i went back to my table and decided to run off. In a hurry, my friend K and i rannnnnnn....

but i forgot to bring my bag. F*!

K ran back to help me take but after a while, i saw her walking back with the malay guys, now dressed in black and holding parangs. One of them had a knife pointed at K's neck. The other lunged forward and chased me..i ran onto the road, wildly screaming 'help help'.

Just then, a car stopped and the driver came out to help me. At that moment, you cannot imagine my relief but i realised he was dressed in black too.... UHOHHHH....

nightmare ended.

so tired now. grumpy and mad.

the guy and girl who is sitting opposite me are flirting non stop in a volume that i would be embarrassed about. GRRR..this is the library idiots!

best in the world

2009-11-04T20:55:00.002+08:00

mummy is still the best.

no matter how mean i am to her, how big a temper i throw, she will still love me.

im irreplaceable in her eyes.

can anybody be irreplaceable?

no you say

Would any of you expect that kind of unconditional love from your other halves?

2 of the prettiest things( ignore the materialism and just look at THAT)

SO CUTEEEEEE

HAHAH

2009-10-28T20:05:00.001+08:00

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

GUYS CAN GO EAT IT THEMSELVES!

all in 2 weeks

2009-10-26T10:56:00.000+08:00

These 2 weeks have been eventful. Firstly it is my bkk getaway with the bee-eff and my dear kyra chin's birthday.

Bkk to me was OKAY, not that great because I cant really appreciate such a noisy and complicated place where everybody is out to 'ka' you. It is too tiring. Though i have to admit that the things there are cheap:) I did thai massage everyday and i think it was too much because my back ached after i came back haha. We went to Pattaya to find the outlet stores and we had a pleasant surprise. It is super chill there and it feels like Thailand to me. Nice people, nice food, not so nice lady boys pimping their skinny asses off. Their figures can put girls to shame, seriously. Hate the fact that guys like to go there and have fun, the thought is just too gross. Pattaya is known as 'sin city' or 'old man's city' because there are alot of old men there looking for young ladies or lady boys.

YUCK!

We also went clubbing and nightclubbing on 2 nights. Clubbing means going to their thai clubs that is kinda like Zouk, with all that youngsters gyrating to English songs( i know you want me, you know i want cha) except that their drinks are CHEEAAPPPP.

There was nothing special and nick and I were bored. The next day we went to this Thai disco with live performances called 'Hollywood'. Well, scantily clad women are of course seen but they are very good performers. The Thai songs they sing were also ear worm worthy. Now i know why guys like to go to thai discos. Women, alcohol, music, what more do they need, right?

For me, I feel threatened hahaha.. but i enjoyed the performances LAH.

Next would be my dearest baby girl's 2 years old birthday celebration.

I cant believe that 3 years have passed since my sister told us that she was pregnant. WOW

SO SO SO adorable...

the price we pay

2009-10-15T22:03:00.004+08:00

When I was in primary sch, I had to wear a pinafore and the style then was to wear it really short and have high socks with white shoes. Well, I had my mom made super short uniforms and one day i was looking at myself in the mirror, I realised I have fatter thighs and calves than other people.

In Sec sch, I was skinny, mainly because I played basketball and trained alot. However, the training and weight loss didnt do any good for my fat thighs.

Now, I plainly hate my thunder thighs. Sometimes I really envy those girls with long and slim legs. People like me will have to exercise and when I do that, I worry about muscled calves that are a tad too masculine. KNS!

I'd rather have a rotund body with long legs than a thin body with turnip legs. boo boo

SO that is why when I work, I will save up money and MAYBE just MAYBE go for the LIPOSUCTION of thighs.

WAH LAU EH THIS IS DAMN GROSS! FAT IS GROSS.

BUT IT WORKS MAN. See the difference??? Happy to see this.. wait till you see the next picture

The bruises look farking painful. (*hug my fat thighs)

Anyways, i dont see myself doing this for the next few years. I have too many debts and bills to pay hahaha.. If i have the extra cash, I would go the distance. Pain isnt such a big factor. That can be training for natural birth! haha

I cook when I have to

2009-10-13T21:51:00.004+08:00

To reward nick for his good behaviour and hard work for trying to meet me as often as possible, I decided to cook for him. With all my love and sweat of course. haha

I got my inspiration from Xiaxue's horribly unhealthy risotto and my eureka moment was at NTUC supermarket.

Basically I went there and thought up my menu there and then. I seriously love to shop at supermarkets. no kidding.

Nick loves the classic Italian/French salad so I decided to try and replicate those nice salads we ate at fine restaurants. First up, balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil! throw in a few pieces of avocado and honey tomatoes into a mountain of baby spinach, romaine lettuce,rocket and VIOLA!

For the main, I decided to turn the risotto into penne. I used cream, sherry cooking wine, lots of mushrooms and my specialty- meatballs!! Recipe is a secret, ask me and i might just tell you hahahahaha

I swear by my yummy meatballs, although they look ugly but i have the thumbs up from nick and my dad so it has to be good.

my semi crispy meatballs

wah can be as good as ikea meatballs okay

sucky pasta that took 14 mins to cook. next time i will just put spaghetti.

The array of condiments and herbs that i have used for this satisfying meal.

I cooked and we washed up together, thats very fair right? He has to show his appreciation for my effort, somehow. Hee I like to cook for him and see him eat my food with so much enthusiasm and rigour.

Maybe I can get used to this kind of warm fuzzy feeling.

Now he is just snoring away after a long day at work with me blogging and watching tv.

Still, the fuzzy feeling remains.

Now can you cook something for someone whom you care about?

Share your recipe!

im mean

2009-10-10T15:02:00.002+08:00

Blogger, I have sinned today. I have selfish and evil thoughts which I thought I would never have.

I have to confess that I am a very mean girl, girlfriend in fact.

yesterday night, my bf fell asleep at 9.30 accidentally and knowing that he had to wake up at 7am in the morning today, I forcibly woke him up. I thought the nap was enough and that he should keep me company already. It took him alot of determination to wake up and I was reasonably proud of myself for being such a bitch. haha

Then, I felt guilty. What happened to the understanding girlfriend? OOPS

Dear all, I always complain about nick but seriously he is very sweet towards me.

He spent all his free time with me and never really hold back on treating me like a princess.

(pssst his first present to me is a Fendi bag)

SORRY LA MISTER I OWE U THIS

Besides a holiday awaits us. He is bringing me to somewhere fun! :)

Enough about the bf. I wanna play badminton tml!!!!

as fickle as i am

2009-10-06T19:42:00.003+08:00

It has been a whirlwind week for me. To think that exactly one week ago, i was anticipating the return of the BF- the major pain in the ass whose absence made me crazy. He was supposed to be back on wednesday and only got back on friday evening due to the unfortunate weather conditions.

you have no idea how much i curse the weather. I hope I wun get struck by lighting! Seriously, I hate the disappointment. When he finally told me on thurs night that he is 95% sure that he is coming back, the excitement of it all kept me awake till 4am. I really wanted to just sleep but I dunno why my brain cant. haha

Thus, Friday evening came and I happily went to paya lebar air base with a flask of chicken soup in hand. I even visualised how I am going to greet him. Run towards him? Croak Hi? Say 'Hey you' coolly? Hug him tight?

I did none of it. He just walked towards me with a whole lot of luggage.

me: woah, how come you got so many things and others only have a few?

Then after that i thought- good work florence, that is the only thing you can come up with?

super smooth eh?

We caught Inglourious Basterds for a whole 3 hours and it was fantastic. Quentin is the master! all hail the master!! go watch pleaseeee people..you wouldnt regret:)

Saturday was spent at 2 places- my cousin's place and jon's place

Great time lasted only till night because after we went back to his place, he fell sick. actually he was feeling sick in the evening already. poor fellow

therefore, i spent the whole of sunday and monday nursing him back to health.

SO BUSY ALL OF A SUDDEN.

I have forensics quiz tml and I aint worried at all. I think that shldnt be the case, aiya, i'll read the notes tml morning.

OH YA, I DYED MY HAIR BACK TO BROWN-BLACK!!

haha

fickle+fussy bf= tedious dye job

Fanntopher's wedding is just too much for me. too much hoo-ha, too fanciful and too extravagant for my taste, i just get goosebumps.

Im hopelessly hooked on Hello Panda just like my dear kyra. Usually, my house has nothing edible but when kyra comes, the house is suddenly like a 7-11, filled with all sorts of drinks and kyra's fav biscuits. One of which is Hello Panda. I stole some of hers and damn, i cannot stop!!!

YAYYYY NICK IS COMING BACK TML

OVER THE MOON, DOWN AND UP & CONTINUE THAT FOR 100 times:)

2009-09-28T14:40:00.003+08:00

I woke up today feeling like an alien with body aches. Body aches are largely due to the badminton yesterday which i went last minute. I could never resist a little bit of vigorous badminton playing which never fails to make every part of my muscles work. And that my friends, means I can incinerate all my fats and flaps that jiggle and wiggle when i move. That is however, useless when a ravenous me ate like a pig during dinner. -.-''

Alien is because I feel like I have traveled to outer space in my sleep! I seemed to have gone to pluto and back. That kind of dreamy, confused, tired, out of the world feeling... it is as though my spirit came out of my body when i sleep. What did I dream about? what did I do?

I have NO idea.

by the way, F1 rocks concert is awesome! with the exception of simple minds and zztop. It is just not our kind of music not that it is bad music. I should have went for beyonce and i greatly regret that! bah

I will go next year. Definitely

thanks joc for the pictures!

Clarification

2009-09-25T12:49:00.002+08:00

I did not intend to get the filmsy swimsuit. It is just to share with all of you the interesting stuff that I have found online.

I only liked the vintage jewellery.

Thank you.

its even sadder today

2009-09-24T23:35:00.002+08:00

I think im far too emotional, every single thing that happens will make a dent on my emotions. why can i be stony and indifferent to things or people who annoy me? i wish i could take it easier and not get so agitated because being agitated, i would become such a bitch. i tsked at this woman who banged into me, threw a dirty glance at an old man who blocked my way when i was boarding the bus and stare at the same woman who spoke as if the whole world is deaf.

foul mood i have, once i calmed down i began to wonder what cause this dull frustration at anything and everything.

ok, i had a little argument with nick yesterday night. he upped his torture level and that made me unhappy. how can i hate someone as much as i love them?

the good thing is we will trashed things out before we sleep so we dont carry our unhappiness and differences to bed.

Then i think, what made me grumpy is my management book. I actually mugged today and maybe, just maybe it is because i hate reading the book.

out of depression,i....

2009-09-23T23:31:00.004+08:00

I was looking at career/jobs wesbite when i strayed to etsy ( damn dawn haha) where there are beautiful vintage jewellery and clothes.

Ta dah..chanced upon this.

SO SEXAYE RIGHT?? 60 pieces of greeback...tsktsktsk so little cloth somemore

I WANT THESE... so pretty arent they? i can put a certain someone's pic inside the locket:)

ok back to worrying about my future:(

:( depressing path ahead

Vanity is a woman's downfall, just as a woman is to a man.

She will do whatever it takes to smile in approval upon the image in the mirror. From top to toe and from inside to outside, it is always a relentless pursuit for perfection.

Some may see it less important, some may deem it to be the goal in life. Beauty can make or break a woman's life. Is it not right for me to say that a pretty woman will have a smoother ride in that roller coaster of life? And do you deny that being pretty has its advantages?

well, all these are to justify my purchase of a certain beauty tool- a nose clip

dont scoff at it okay, according to some girls on the forum, it does work. even 2mm makes a difference.

vainpot on the stove!

it starts my day

2009-09-17T11:48:00.002+08:00

exactly 2 more weeks

2009-09-16T12:50:00.002+08:00

When i said i miss you, it means i miss you more than anyone else would, miss you like i have never missed anyone before, and i will never miss anyone more. i had missed you so much that i am still missing, i can never stop missing you, with an intensity i do not even know i have.

koo koo bird

2009-09-15T23:16:00.002+08:00

I put ice in my water as i wanted to drink cold water.

oohh how i anticipate drinking freezing ice water in such a hot and dry weather.

soon, i forgot about my water and it became warm again.

stupidity got the better of me.

holiday

2009-09-14T21:05:00.003+08:00

Over the weekend, I had a mini getaway. Well not exactly a holiday but it was so relaxing and fun that it seemed like i escaped from Singapore and went to another island.

I stayed at my da jie's place with my mommy!

ok i sound like a kid but please understand my joy of seeing my loved ones after a 2 weeks absence.

Her place was really serene and languid and it was right next to bukit timah nature reserve. So you can imagine how quiet the place is and how scenic it must be. I could see the top of the hill from her apartment.

So every morning we will walk up and down the hill and then head to beauty world for breakfast. It was a very long walk but we had so much time to kill. Besides i need to make up for lost time with my mom.

In the afternoon, we lazed around, cooked lunch and swam! we swam like 1 hr and soaked in the jacuzzi even longer. kyra chin and gang also came by for 2 days in a row and we all swam together.

Now, it is back to amk and school. it is nice to stay at her place for while but i do miss my own place, my bed, my cushion and my laptop. haha

oh and all the while, nick has been calling me once everyday, sometimes at unearthly hours.

im thankful for that although i think he is sick of me telling him that i missed him. i cant help telling him the same thing because that is truly how i feel everyday right?

photos of kyra chin swimming will be up soon ya? am too lazy to upload now haha

people who make me smile

2009-09-08T23:26:00.002+08:00

You feel me dont you?

emo night

2009-09-06T00:22:00.000+08:00

i hate myself for feeling so pitiful, pitiful because im constantly waiting for his phone calls.

Scared the hell out of me

2009-09-05T20:49:00.000+08:00

This is very very darn real.

DO not text while driving!

alot of thoughts

2009-09-03T00:48:00.002+08:00

i ask you, when you are busy, you tend to neglect other stuff and become very 'no-nonsense' right?

again when you are stressed, anything can trigger an outburst right?

lastly when you are not happy in a new place, you wont be loving right?

SAF please grant me and nick 30 mins per night!

That poor boy has been working non stop. Even when i was talking to him, he was doing his calculations for tml's flight.

I know he is trying. I am trying to adapt too. back in an environment before he appeared.

still heart you the most

anways my dearest mum and sis are leaving tml. It seems like everyone is leaving me:(

patient abandonment would be the name of the crime.

bad

2009-08-31T18:35:00.001+08:00

This is bad.

I miss him terribly every second.

I check my phone every 10 secs.

rainy sad day

2009-08-31T14:34:00.003+08:00

Regarding the previous post, I have deliberated and the decision is that I will continue with the class 3C licence lessons.

On to today's,

I have a video here which is as shocking as the president flashing his undies. Ok drama

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nDiL_uDs4k&feature=player_embedded

CLICK CLICK CLICK!

I might find it very shocking because I do not know anyone who takes drugs or has any relations with the gangs. It is so hard for me to understand why people want to risk their lives, more so, as a gamble to win that little bit of face or money. Parents spent their entire lives caring for their children only to see them indulge in a life of sex, violence and drugs. What is worse is that they lost their precious lives so recklessly when there are millions of people in this world who so desperately want to live but cant.TSK

Bye my mr love;

in 30 days we reunite.

long, it is not

short. most definitely not to the girl who pines;

but now, you are millions of miles away.

fret not my dear, yarns we spun stretched so far;

I'll know you are always with me.

so, I'll be alright;

and wait for the day you alight.

HOW to drive

2009-08-26T23:24:00.002+08:00

Manual transmissions are much more common than automatic transmissions in Asia, Africa, South America and Europe.

In Europe, 80% of the car's sold are Manual; while almost all car's sold in the U.S. are Automatic.

Automatic transmissions are used by almost all driver's in North America, especially the U.S., and most of Australian driver's. If you have only taken driver's licence for Automatic transmission driving, most European countries do not allow you to drive Manual cars.

Update: Yours truly passed evaluation and is going to take basic theory in september but I signed up for Manual( class 3c) course. Now I am thinking if i shld switch to auto? HOW?

pros and cons of manual:

can drive sports cars( think vrroom vroom glamorous metal)
can drive in europe and all the other countries stated above
more fun, they say
but it takes more lessons to clear
HARDER

pros and cons of auto

EASY TO PASS LUH
cheaper because of lesser practices
boring
cannot drive in countries where auto cars are rare

HELPPPPPPPP

fated to love you

2009-08-26T21:36:00.005+08:00

I know I have been crazy about <> like many other girls out there. After Boys over flowers, here I am faithfully watching Fated on youtube.

Actually there are just really cheesy romantic idol dramas with good looking actors and actresses. Even though the shows are extremely unrealistic and idealistic, we just love to watch how the plot unfolds and how it becomes a happy ending.

I do wish to stop this really soon. It would be better for me to read instead of watching all these nonsensical shows haha

Even when I am attached now, I cant help but swoon at the sweet nectarine-y type of storyline. like 2 people meet, fall in love and stay together forever and ever. Their eyes only have each other and their hearts only have room for each other.

Whenever I see JI CUNXI, I will think about nick. Maybe because they have similarities?

like how they are equally cute and annoying at the same time? Sometimes i really feel like smashing my fist into nick's face but the way his face lit up with laughter when he JACKED me, never failed to dissolve my fist.

*sometimes my anger will stay for quite long. even his cute face wun save him

like how ji cunxi always tricks xinyi? Im forever being pushed around by him too..GGRR

like how he is so sensitive to xinyi's emotional needs?

like how he shamelessly thinks he is very handsome?

like how he proclaimed his love for xinyi? nick is equally apt at that..haha

This is for you, my love:

I carry your heart with me
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)

i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)

i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

EE Cummings

Finally getting down to doing work

2009-08-21T18:04:00.000+08:00

The dust has already settled and I am officially ready to study. No more playfulness and skipping of lessons( tutorials) for me, I think it will make me lazier than ever.
In fact, I feel this urgent need to start on my fyp. Yes, my final year project.
The thought of it used to make me want to just forget about it but now, I cant seem to forget it. Even when on the bus, I will think about our topic and basically just frowned my way to more wrinkles.
It is tough but I have braced myself for the onslaught of readings that might just blind me. HAHA

I hope to do as such as i can before nick comes back. He is such a distraction, from past sem experience haha
In the month of september. when nick goes to thailand, my mum and sister move back to gillman/diary farm, I aim to complete as much things as possible.
1) pass my driving theory and go for practical lessons
2) do consistent work for my 4 mods this sem
3) aim to do research for fyp every week. die die must touch
4) exercise and cut 4kgs in order to win ( monetary reward: 200 dollars)
5) work on weekends? ( not comfirmed)

See I have so many things i have to do. I have to keep myself busy busy busy...
:(
otherwise I will be very sad if loneliness knocks on my door.

awesome days

Facebook is really the ultimate link up machine for people all around the world. Friends or acquaintances, be it close or not close, by being a fb friend, you gain access to their life and have sneak peeks of what they do.

You can call me a kaypoh or whatever you like. I simply enjoy browsing through the photos section in fb and that is the only place I go besides restaurant city and pet society. I couldnt care less about comments because some are just lameshit.

It is as though even if you dont know the person well or lost touch with him or her, the pictures you see give you a little inkling of what and how they are now. It is so sweet that my secondary 1 and 2 classmates added me recently and I get to see their photos and know where they are.

That is why I like fb.

However, I am a green eyed monster sometimes when I see friends of mine jet setting round the world leaving their muddy footprints on the very land i yearn to go and delicately imprinting their teethmarks on yummy food. Grrr

It is like a slap to the face- I dont have that kind of luxury!

and to see them dress so nicely with a million bags to boot, that is like a million slaps already.

who doesnt want to enjoy? who doesnt envy lucky people who get to do what they want without limitations? who doesnt WANT?

Before i get carried away with what i DO NOT have, I have to remind myself that I am already very happy with what I have. There is nothing wrong in having a simple life and it doesnt shortchange on the magnitude of happiness in comparison.

For example, nick and I are on a save money campaign so we decided to embark on money-less leisure activities. We want to swim but public swimming pools are super crowded( other things on weekends are so ex!). Therefore we went to a random condo to swim. MUAHHAHA

so exciting and fun( ok in the end we went to my da jie's place-.-)

Or we make our own japanese sushis at home.

Or jog at Chinese Garden/West coast( sorry shu shu koped ur fav place:) )

Ultimately, It is the people around me that makes me happy, not the many chanels, hermes, jimmy choos and LV.

Alright enough of my talking, I haven blogged so much for such a long timeeeee...

Anyways I had an awesome weekend! We celebrated nick's birthday at Swissotel The Stamford and had AMAZING french food at Sweet Indulgence. The food is unforgetable. Really. and it has 45% off on saturdays. We ordered the most expensive things ahaha..

At night, we wanted to go to new asia bar but the entry is so expensive. In the end, we walked to butter factory at one Fullerton and to our bewilderment, the queue at 11pm is a snaking great wall of china!( surprisingly now i realised the cover charge for butter din turn us off, must be the girls. stupid nick! double standard one)

Lazy us decided to just sit near the merlion and do what we did 7 months ago where we shared our deepest thoughts. hee

beachhhhh

2009-08-11T16:04:00.004+08:00

friday- food poisoning

sat- recovery

sunday- Up 3D

monday- Palawan beach!

Can youbelieve how fast nick recovers?

hahaha

so fun so fun! We played ultimate frisbee and it is sooo tiring!

I haven ran like this since the long long police-wear-shorts days. We played with this other team we met there and boy, is that team special! It is made of people of all shapes and sizes and they looked super pro. I rammed right into this tanned asian rambo lower body. HAHAH

NOT that i want to, he happened to block my way when I caught the frisbee and came down unstable. Hope he is alright. haha

In the evening, we rushed to Expo to see the Harvey norman and metro sale.

It turned out to be a good decision because we got a 37"FULL HD TV for $700 BUCKS

MADLY HAPPY

bed potatoes nick and florence
hahah

food poisoning

2009-08-08T11:21:00.001+08:00

I wonder how safe are the food we eat these days. I remember watching the Food Inc trailer in the cinemas and I was horrified by the facts provided.
Unwittingly, we might be eating bacteria infused food everyday and that is slow POISONING!
Imagine a kid died after eating a hamburger laced with E.Coli bacteria. Cause of death: Virus in Hamburger
Also, all the processed and fried foods are really bad for health.
The next time you tuck into your golden yummy looking kfc chicken, think twice. The oil that they used can be recycled 20, 30 or even 40 times..you will never know.

chicken-bird flu
pork- swine flu
beef- mad cow disease
vegetable- pesticide poisoning
fish- chemical(mercury) poisoning

WHAT CAN WE EAT????

humans?

we are all going to die at this rate this is going..

anyways talking about cannibalism, there is this super gross movie called cannibal holocast.
I was bored one day and i decided to dl some horror shows( my fav as you can see) to watch.
This is the MOST GRUESOME SHOW EVER! I seriously lost my appetite after eating. Believe me when i said it is disgusting.
I dare say my horror/ blood tolerance level is magnificently high.
However, the various real life killings of animals like monkey, turtle, and snakes really make me cringe. I swear i have more wrinkles from frowning so much.

Summary of story:
The show is about this professor who is tasked with finding out what happened to a group of young people who went to the Amazon to film about cannibalistic tribes.
Along the way, he followed the tracks of the team and finding dead bodies and clues until he chanced upon the teams' skeletony remains. Finally he recovered the flims taken by the team,to find out what caused their demise.

He then found out that the team was a bunch of cruel, narcissistic, selfish and disgusting people. They forced the people to go into a hut and tried to burn them alive.
They filmed the process of tribeswoman digging a foetus out of a pregnant woman and then stoning her to death. They raped a young tribe girl( GANGBANG) and caused her to have a pole rammed into her from the mouth and out of her body through her anus!!!
In the end they all died from gruesome deaths. The only girl in the group got raped and decapitated. The guys got castrated and eaten.

Despite all these sensationalism and provocative images, I kinda get what the director wants to show.
It did not focus much on the cannibalism, but more of the issue between the civilised and uncivilised.
So what if they are from the city, they are as cruel and barbaric as the tribes people.
They did nothing wrong, they mostly eat animals but if they have no choice or provoked, they will attack people. WHICH IS ENTIRELY NORMAL ISNT IT?

Go and find out more. It is really interesting to watch (esp the slaying of the turtle hahahah) if you can stomach it.
strictly r21 pr 25 hahahha

oh the subject today is inspired by nicholas baby. He had food poisoning yesterday and so worried i was that i rushed down to his place to see him.
scary. He couldnt even move, only jerkhis body ocassionally.

POOR THING:(

durian

2009-08-03T17:01:00.002+08:00

I really really crave for durians. My mum has 2 durian puffs for me and that hardly satiates my ravenous appetite for the fruit.

sadness. everybody is telling me that the season is ending soon. WHY NO DURIANNNSSS???

On a random note, my unforgiving mum and aunts said that im BA BA(fleshy) now and that is hardly good news. I even enjoyed an exceptionally premium japanese food with nick's family in celebration of his birthday. That restaurant is called Shinoba. YUMMM..

why must all the bad news come all at one time? plus plus my school is starting soon and i have to go for my theory lessons at BBDC:( Anyways i signed up for MANUAL course so wish me good luck!

Tell me howwwww..

i hate having my naturally slow metabolic rate. cant you bloody cells work more?? why so lazy????

alright, tml is swimming day. wednesday is jogging day. thursday is nick's birthday so it is cake eating day. friday is jogging day.TADAH!

There you have it, my last free week.

ZENG SHUHUI WHERE ARE YOU? meet up leh before you start working

2009-07-27T21:46:00.002+08:00

I know I have to share this.

This little girl is unber cute.

My mom, sister, bro in law and kyra have been staying at amk for one month already. There are drastic changes in my life every few months. For instance when they come back, i get to eat home cooked food and refuses to go out just because my mom can boil my favourite soup and cook my favourite dishes. Also, my clothes get washed super duper fast, like if i wear on thurs, the clothes will be folded nicely in the cupboard by friday. WOAH

More importantly, I get to witness kyra's spurt in growth. Now she is tall and bubbly( kinda hyperactive i feel). Even more impt than the former, I get to spend time with my whole family.

LOVE RIGHT

My da jie is going to stop flying soon. She is on her last flight( HK, San Fran) and will start on her new job almost immediately. YAY

This is prolly continue for about 2 more months. ( or maybe lesser)

By then, my Dearest Nick baby will be in Korat, Thailand, going through training for ONE WHOLE BLOODY month.

OH GAWD

totally sian to the maxx

Yuan if you are reading this in China, I just wanna say ENJOY YOURSELF OKKKK??

you are greatly missed:)

procrastination is me

2009-07-20T16:45:00.002+08:00

Sigh, I just finished 2/3 of my report and dont feel like doing it anymore.

Its the holidays man! I am going to wait until wed night to finish it up. Thats Florence's SOP for you. haha

Anyways, are you all interested my little modelling job?

I had a studio shot on thurs and another outdoor shot on saturday. They are all for Singtel, under the same job.

As i have said, the studio one is damn exhausting. Surprisingly the outdoor one is very fun and quick. I just had to jump and pose on a elevated platform together with 3 other girls.

show yall the pictures when they are out. I have to say, they are quite well taken.

The photographer is Jing Quek and he is known for his wacky and colourful photos.

http://superhyperreal.com/

Go to his website and you will be kinda tickled by his quirkiness haha.. he is so full of energy!

thats saturday noon for you.

and then, we head down to Singapore Food Festival at Clarke Quay to try R burger.

okay, it is still in the works so the bun might not taste very good. too hard me thinks haha

At night, nick and i went to meet his friends to drink at brewerkz and we had some exceptional calamari and cheesy fries. WOOO! We proceed to this bar at the cannery and there, i realised my 5-10 skills are better but i still lost to nick. ALOT. Thus, I drank beer like i chugged water.

HAHA..

sunday is a cool sleep-and-prepare-for-monday day.

i know what you all wanna see

2009-07-16T18:39:00.003+08:00

recently our dearest kyra has grown to be quite like her mom. we can see the similarity.

I know..totally melt worthy.

Oh yea and today i just went for a singtel youth ad photoshoot.

Firstly I was sick.

Secondly, I have to stand and hold a real laptop for a bloody one hour and MORE.

i swore i was seeing stars and i couldnt feel my hands.

Thirdly, I smiled for 5 hours.

Money is not easy to earn.

why such anal-ness

2009-07-13T21:04:00.004+08:00

I dont understand why men complain so much. They go to work and think that they did alot already and decided that any domestic matters are not their business.

Even if some are not working, that mentality of not doing anything is stubborn like a cherry stain.

They think washing dishes and ironing clothes are too much and they shouldnt be doing that much.

Okay fuck that. How do you ever equal the amount you have put into your house and family with the benefits you get out of it? Cant men understand that they have to put in a considerable amount of effort in maintaining the house, not by just providing?

Granted that work is tiring, household chores should be kept to a minimal. But what if the wife is also working? Shouldnt the household chores be divided somehow equally? (usually women will do more)

Fine... i have no qualms about letting my man rest after a hard day's work. I'd rather tire my bones out than see him so shagged you know.

However, he should know that it is not by default that the wife is doing that just coz it is her responsibilty. He should be thankful and glad. Then, it is a happy family.

Tell you what's not a happy family. It is when the guy refuses to do anything when the wife is busy with looking after grandchild and her kids are working.

ooo the-' i-do-too-much-already'-then-hops-back-onto-the-bed-and-nap-for-3hrs-everyday thingie is just sooooooooo impressive. shockingly laughable

I am amazed by that level of devil-may-care attitude, like if i choke on my unboiled water and die how?

I am pissed beyond words. Im thoroughly disgusted, through and through.

I wished I am Simba now so I can roar out my frustrations and eat him up in a fit of anger.

im thinking

2009-07-12T22:02:00.003+08:00

Yes, i have officially left spoc. now i just have to write the report and im done!

It has been quite an enjoyable experience. Now i know that doing events is really tiring, hmm okay thats not i want to do next time.

nick, mummy and i went bowling on saturday. It was my mum's 'off day' and we decided to bring her out despite my very terrible blocked nose.

No prizes for guessing who is the winner. That irritating guy thrashed my mum and I by a landslide. hee i want to go bowling again!

sigh it is sunday already, although i am not working, i still have the monday blues. for now.

and i have just become blue-er

More time now

2009-07-08T22:58:00.004+08:00

I am terribly sorry for neglecting my blog.

Bet you are all wondering where did florence go. Well, I am just too lazy to blog after work.

Good news is this friday will be my last day at SPOC. R burger is to be launched on 21st july and i will surely be there to support.

Please support R burger..it is really DELISH!

Talking about food, I have been eating and eating and eating.

Breakfast, Lunch, Snacks, Dinner and titbits

and i haven been exercising:(

After my work ends, I am going to start doing something fun and vigorous. I want to wear my tiny dress!

It also doesnt help when nick is like this super huge glutton who never gets fat. Bless him for his good genes, love his big appetite actually.

anways back to the topic, after i end my work, i'll have to start on my FYP. Holidays really fly, I hardly have any time to play. Then again, I am also not that hardworking during sch term too hahahah

smaller please

2009-06-21T22:20:00.001+08:00

Baby, it is time to go on a diet.

kfc and pizza hut tgt is a lethal combi.

FIGHTIN!

SUN SUN and MORE SUN

another day at work

2009-06-17T22:11:00.002+08:00

i think my period is coming, tt is why i am most emotional and ridiculously sensitive.

i bought my papa a pair of crocs sandals for father'sday and i feel absurdly happy. mostimportantly, crocs is nonslip so he will not fall easily.

spoken to nick and i felt tickled for no reason. can i mention that i spend all my free time skyping and talking to him at night when both of us are busy with work in the day?

nick's boss: so what do you guys do when you all go back home after work?

nick's head:

day 1- eat, talk to gf, sleep

day 2- eat, meet gf, sleep

day3- eat,sleep

day 4- eat, skype with gf,sleep

day 5- eat, meet gf, sleep

day 6- eat,go out with gf, sleep

day 7- eat, play golf with gf, sleep

HAHAHAHAHAH

why did i appear so many times?

my lil nicky is so cute. sometimes:)

i also feel happy because of work. we had a meeting at an italian restaurant at greenwood ave at 1pm so boss just said'ok we might as well lunch here'

squid ink linguine, napoletan pizza and tiramisu. FOC! ahahhaha..my work has its perks

looking to have more meetings for thurs and friday!

that man likes to play gold. time for me to pick up a new skill!

I asked her to smile for the camera

say'cheeezzzzeeeeeeeeeeeee'

ADORABLE TO THE MAX ISNT SHE?

temper

2009-05-30T14:48:00.002+08:00

sometimes i let my temper get the best of me. At that moment, i cant seem to think straight with all that anger pouring out and i say things that i will regret afterwards.

temper. that is the word

who doesnt have temper?

we just got to calm down, not just i attitude you so you attitude me. that kind of mentality which i know now, doesnt work at all. But the wilful girl in me refuses to back down. sometimes

grrr..bad mood now with my headache pounding hard inside.

i feel so bad when we kinda have a little tiff:(

i think i am defensive and a little bit resentful of opinions. i dunno why. criticisms put me off although i know that they will make me a better person.

it is always' what gives them the right to say me!'

that childish wilful smart alecky ways often got me into trouble.

when will i ever learn?

haha

2009-05-28T11:50:00.002+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I had a sweet 22nd birthday 'period'. yes thats right, period.

I feel so blessed:)(YY: pics leh!)

in office blogging now..got to run!!!! byeya

day of rants

2009-05-21T22:21:00.002+08:00

i hate going coming back home from work. going there is fine but i super loathe the journey back to amk. it is like going to sch, the trip there is tolerable but the return is horrible.

firstly i hate men who hog the poles by leaning and let us, high-heeled women wobble unsteadily on the train. i love heels but a trainful of inconsiderate pple can be such a bitch. PFFFTTTTTttt

angrified really

plus there is this old man who leaned closer and closer to me everytime i tried to stay away. thanks for the limited space in the cabin, i smelt his armpit throughout. tell me how can i NOT hate crowded trains?

times like this really make me want to learn driving.

my heart is screaming' nick nick come and save me'. too bad lover boy is tremendously busy this week, we didnt even meet or talk much.

talk about driving, my mum has been nagging at me for not registering for theory. she thinks im procrastinating and according to her, im very 'nuah'.

people rant at me thus i feel very ranty, then i want to rant. it is a vicious cycle

why is nick not here yet?? i want to sleep. PPPFFTTTT

goodness gracious

2009-05-20T19:55:00.002+08:00

work is good. i have friends, exciting tasks and things to look forward to.

yesterday was very scary. i almost thought he was going to leave me. the tears just flowly relentlessly.we'll see how the new arrangement works ya?

by the way my birthday is coming up and my calender is empty.

come on fill it up:)

i dreamt of this

2009-05-14T22:42:00.002+08:00

each one of them is a beauty. just one and i will die a happy girl. hee

busy again

2009-05-13T20:50:00.002+08:00

right now the people i know are busy going on holidays and here i am stuck with doing internship

not that it isnt fun, it is just sickening to have to wake up at 8 every morning and the vain me will not leave the house until i am happy with how i look.

on a more positive note, i get to work on projects in which might the next big thing in singapore( okay i like burgers so i presume everyone would)

and i get to work with people i like:)

all the interns are so cute..including me of course muahahaha

tml is a busy day. i will get to try food samples from different suppliers! yeahh i can save money on lunch. did i mention that the food there sucks?

a good chance for me to cut some weight mans. i seem to be stuck in a big fat rut! now i will start to groan about how fat i am( nick:you too, no?). I WILL START TO LOVE WORKING OUT AGAIN

visual heavy!

2009-05-07T16:06:00.002+08:00

this pretty much sums up my week after my exams ended

i am fine, no swine flu or whatsoever.
only i think i have holiday withdrawal symptons. i'll have to go cold turkey:(

byebye for awhile

2009-04-30T22:56:00.002+08:00

I will be out of town till tuesday.

tee hee

2009-04-28T19:23:00.005+08:00

yayy my exams are over and for those who still havent finished, GOOD LUCK:)

some pictures for yall to enjoy

sorry about the big pictures

really lazy to reload and the uploading takes a milllion years:(

just minimize your screen ok.. press control and scroll ur mouse to magnify or minimize

see-rea-ious-leyy

2009-04-22T14:38:00.003+08:00

after the exams, i can only slack for about 2 weeks before i start on my internship

surprise surprise

i will be interning at SPOC solutions, helping out with the wine and R-burger venture.

*hope things will not be too weird. peace out. i will just do my job and not care about anything else.

5AUs5AUs5AUs

2 weeks which means a grand total of 1200 dollars, a meagre sum when you count in all the transportation and food costs. Luckily i eat like a mouse but wonder why i am still an elephant. Irony of the century.bahh

soooo i am going to be damn broke..broke to the extent of just bringing sandwiches to work and asking nick to come and fetch me( HAHAHAHA)

all because i want to get a camera, shades and a holiday. Woah now that is one helluva greed!i need to work part time already during the next semester and stop being so lazy and always stick to nick..right??

haiyaaa..i have always wanted a camera which makes everything look soooo beautiful. recently i went with yuan to get hers and i was so amazed by her DSLR like compact camera.anyways he lumix is the one that xiaxue got recently and zhnged until damn princessy one. *shivers

TSKTSKTSK..totally sinful. she makes me think that canon ixus is a faux pas and a nono. I think if i get one, i will bring it around with me all the time and shoot the things around me, the people i love, the food i eat and the places i go. awwwwwwwwww

next up will be my shades. we must always protect our precious eyes and i fell in love with one. sadly it is tooooo expensive so the ray ban white aviators will do just fine(i guess, losers cant choose) haha

holiday...needless to say. if nick can get his leave, we will go crazy.

well so may 26 is coming, can anybody donate to FLORENCE BIRTHDAY WISHES' FUND?

it is so meaningful, much more that donating to RENCI coz that fucking MINGYI IS A BASTARD. renci ah renci, mingyi ar mingyi, why liidaaattt huhhhhh... everytime i see his face on the papers, or when i read his replies, my anger will just boil and bubble over.

question: do you think monks should spend money on luxury goods?

ans: this is a modern world and well such things last a long time

me thinks, you wear a robe, a bloody beige brown ugly sack and just go to work at renci, why the hell do u need branded goods ( GUCCI SHOES AR, OR LV BAG) that will last you a lifetime? weirded out...the more you spend on such lifeless things, the more the people in renci will suffer and the lesser the subsidy they can get for their medicine and stuff, so how is that justifiable???

just put him in JAIL!

people tell me what u think please.

turn for the better

2009-04-16T17:41:00.002+08:00

that 'some time' that i mentioned in my previous post turned out to be only 7 hrs.

from the moment i sleep to the moment i woke up to hear his cute 'forgive me ok'. sigh

im still traumatised by the flying cockroach yesterday

maybe thats why i woke up with a runny nose and bad cough.

actually i intended to mc my french with a fake diahorrea excuse but in the end, i didnt use it at all because i was genuinely sick and the medicine makes me drowsy. haha

and oh ya remembered my failed attempt for application of internship, the deadline passed 2 weeks ago but recently my friend just offered to help me. I emailed the sch and they approved!! yayness

5 aus down, 6 aus for electives to go...meaning 2 modules for the next 2 sems

happy like crazy

suuperr annoyed

2009-04-16T00:58:00.002+08:00

i am extremely annoyed right now. at first i was quite happy about being free and all. Then someone ruined my good mood by saying the things he shldnt have said, in a manner that shld never be repeated. although he wasnt worked up like i were, i felt like i was being accused of something.

just nice there is this fucking big flying cockroach that land on my butt. i tell u, i scream until i think the people at the void deck can hear. I have never wanted to kill that much.

I told him to hang on and went to hunt for the cockroach. I MUST KILL IT i told myself. in the end, i whacked that cockroach until the legs came off. There,satisfied!

went back, picked up the phone and started the ranting again. even after we ironed things out, i still feel super pissed and even more so when he murmured in that sleepy voice of his that he wanted to sleep. 'aiya whatever la, bye'

i dont know why i feel like acting like a irritating rude brat. i think i will stay mad for some time.

dont know happy or sad

2009-04-15T23:02:00.002+08:00

i am done with my 2 papers- financials and media in america today.

casualties: brain and fingers

now im brainless and fingerless..well fingers on the right hand

maybe i am emotionless too, i have been through this kind of things for too many times already. no longer do i feel the disappointment that i do not know how to do the question. Doesnt sound quite right does it?

anywayssssssssssssss

my last paper is on the 27th..yipppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

and after that, nick got his leave approved from 3rd to 10th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

H-O-L-I-D-A-Y

cant wait..i have been wanting to burst out of singapore for the longest time already.

now the problem is WHERE

baby, we will have our little world.

ulcers

2009-04-09T21:42:00.002+08:00

ARGH..it is killing me. The constant piercing pain of 3 ulcers on my upper and lower lips is driving me nutty nut nut!!!!

at first there is only 2 but i accidentally bit my lower lip and now it has became inflamed. Therefore, i hereby pronounce myself to be MUTE.

it is so tough to talk and eat. somehow i kinda like the idea, i will be a quiet skinny bitch

well that aint going to happen, just a random stupid thought that will make the pain feel like an ant's bite.

BOO HOO HOO

another thing is killing me and that is financial econs. i have been studying that and only that for the past few days and i think im going to be sooo sick of it. it would be nice to study other things when i am sian of it and then go back to it after awhile. sigh. again, my sad life doesnt warrant that kind of good fortune. i am stuck with studying bonds and derivatives for the next 5 days, 120 hrs or 7200 minutes.

come on everyone, let it ALL out. dun keep all the exams stress inside, its a bitch

put me in your pocket

2009-04-07T19:45:00.003+08:00

I am alone at home, just ate a packet of fattening rice and watching flaming butterfly. A few months ago, I would have been more than happy to just stay home and do all that. Now, things have changed.

As you all know, my mum is at my erjie's place so nick has been keeping me company most for the time. I wish he would stay here but many atimes he would stagger home in a state of sleepiness which makes me very guilty. Everytime I say goodbye to nick, I feel this immense dread and sadness. I always stand at my balcony and watch his car pull away.

Or sometimes when he stays over, I am so over the moon because I have someone to talk to for hours, play bejewelled with and eat our fav coffee ice cream with. Even though he has to wake up in the wee hours of the morning for work, we will still wake up together and he will eat the breakfast i whip up.

On days that I have to mug, he will send me to ngee ann poly and accompany me while I study. (that place is like the BEST place to study)

He will always perk me up and make me look forward to each morning because I know he is there.

However, I wish I could do much more for him. When I tell people what nick does for a living, many will be impressed but not me. Not that I am not proud of him, in fact I think he will be the greatest F16 pilot. It is just that I know how hard he works and I always see that he is so tired after flying, I wish I could just wave the fatigue off him. Sometimes i really wish he is a student, just so we could just sneak off in the middle of the day and run in the sand at east coast.

Now that he is still in squadron working his ass off, I shall accompany him by studying my ass off at home. Well, at least I am with him spiritually.

sorry for the extremely mushy but heartfelt post. I miss him :(

lazy pig

2009-04-07T11:16:00.002+08:00

i know it is pretty much useless whining now about how close the exams are

so close that the flames of exams lick my skin and i burn...

cut out all that drama and im nuuuhhhthing

we are planning for a holiday soon..cant wait to get out of this country

finally i get to fryyyyy

i have been out and about so these pictures are collected over a period of time

all the people who are dear to me

firstly myself. never quite myself if i dun cam whore

now someone who is truly cute- kyra chin

we:kyra, what do monkeys eat?

kyra: BAR-na-nahhhhh

all: ROAR IN LAUGHTHER

we: kyra, what happens when you eat orange?

kyra: cough *fake cough

seriously, she is the cutest. EVER..okay maybe second to my pseudo kid

so heres the mommy who can fit into her pre-pregnancy levis and now on her way to cold korea.

hehe i cant wait for her to come back with goodies

what an unglam picture right? but the main thing is NICK GOT a WII!! we can play forever and forever which is bad news for me at this time now:(

nick's mom birthday dinner at shangri la

i had a wagyu beef set and it was orgasmic, so much so that i only ate 3 pieces and others go to everyone else( main culprit is that guy with the guitar-.-)

hehe i ate his stewed beef which was super tasty as well( wagyu is a tad better, so soft it melts!)

starter and then for the next few dishes i devoured like a pig so no pictures haha

ok i shld go study now..byebye

teaching

2009-03-23T17:54:00.002+08:00

someone asked whats going on in my head.

when i stare into space, im either stoning or thinking about what i shld do or need to do.

when im quiet, im secretly sulking or just plain vanilla bored

when im giggly and idiotic, my mind is thinking of more funny or lame things.

when im doing my work, my mind is battling distractions and wandering thoughts.

for example, someone said ' why are you so messy???'

'dunno' i murmur and stare into space

head: messy? ok maybe abit..later go back home, i will clear my table, wipe my table....blah blah

see im not totally a blank sheet of paper!

ray banner

2009-03-20T16:45:00.003+08:00

i have been a lazy girl

a slipshod assignment for CS803- Media in America,which was done a day before the deadline, earned me a B+

yes i am lucky..lucky lazy girl

it is really time to get down and dirty with the books. no fooling around!

haha tell you all the story behind these pictures

on one fine day, nick could get off work early so we went to hort park/ queensway to just walk around. the two of us just wanted to go and see some sneakers and then we went pass this sunglasses shop.

the lack of shades me decided to try on those ray ban wayfarers that i have always loved. i liked the plastic one, nick liked the aviator styled one( not shown here). thus, there is no conclusion.

on our way out, both of us saw this pair of fendi sunglasses that i tried before in the Fendi store. we requested to see that pair but the woman said' oh you are so young, that pair is quite glam, more of corporate. choose the ray ban la..more cutesy more you'

im like thinking' cant i bloody try? i like cannot ar.. you can suggest but ultimately I AM THE CONSUMER'

so she reluctantly let me try other big plasticky sunglasses, not without commenting on how the ray ban suits me ALL THE TIME

HOW ANNOYING CANS

i said' give us a moment' and expected her to walk away and serve other people.

ALAS no, she still stood there and kept giving me this fake comical grin. grrrrrr

the grandmaster said' thanks we will think about it'

me: yea i cannot decide..sorry..

looking at all the sunglasses on the table, i cant help but high fiving nick

her face just dropped..to the ground and beyond

HAHAHAHA

where got pple do sales like that one..esp when the raybans are much cheaper

dont care.. we dont like how she pushed her sales

too bad

hahahha

i think i better not do sales next time..KARMA

effwhypee

2009-03-18T01:22:00.002+08:00

EFFWHYPEE

headache starts here

thanks for the concern people.. im okay now

im loved:)

i throw face and blow nose

2009-03-15T23:40:00.002+08:00

i think i just embarrassed myself in front of my bf by talking in a weird tone when im obviously trying to hold back tears and not sound like im crying.

at first, it was bewilderment, followed by confusion, then frustration and lastly sadness

A friendship is such that both parties are willing to give in to each other and share their thoughts. i cannot get to anyone who doesnt want to share and just give up. it is very disappointing too that you gave up on me without even telling me where i have gone wrong.

communication COMMUNICATiON..we know this but rarely engage in it

i care thats why it bothers me

i care thats why i wanna find out whats wrong

is it my own inherent problem? am i a terrible person?

i know i shldnt doubt myself but at this point, my confidence level fell much more than the Nasdaq did. maybe i will just lay it all to rest. move on?

who are really my friends now?

shrek moment

2009-03-15T20:35:00.002+08:00

oh how i love shrek. it brought me so much laughter and joy

i dun mind watching it a million times

fiona: shrek loves me for who i am

AWWWWwwwwwwwww sweet eh?

you know what, im having a shrek moment now

feel fat, ugly and mean

ughh.. i should just eat air instead of the bak chor mee just now

my mum asked me' did you exercise?'

i said' lazy la never, do i need to'

she answered me with a look. im forever fat in her eyes

and that nick just called me a 'fatty bom bom'

ARRRRGHHHHHHHHHhh

i dunno why a topshop size 8 is considered fat but yeah.. i hate society

:(:(:(

who loves fatty cute florence?

trivia

2009-03-13T14:13:00.003+08:00

i went to the IT fair and got myself a superb epson photo printer. When we first printed out pictures of very high quality( photos that yuan took with her pro cameras), we were utterly amazed by the quality of print. i can even see my pores haha

but there are so many functions i haven explored yet. shucks and now it is already 2 plus

lazy laaaaaahhhh..was surfing and found these

i want this lady GAGA shirt!!! yea or nay? GB 9.99..cheapie no?

do you know that this is a MAGAZINE!? freaking expensive one

anyhows i just love the edgy feel. too bored with beautiful, perfect, toned and sunkissed models

too trivial it seems almost too stupid

tata

i am sad

2009-03-11T17:45:00.004+08:00

rejection is none too alien to me. i think i would know how to deal with it

im now more human than ever. nothing is ever smooth for me now, thats for sure

dont get me wrong..not that i werent one when i was young, but it seems like i had it easy.

my say would be: you are not a human unless you experience obstacles and deep dark feelings.

if you dont, you are a barbie, or a ken. not a human

go live in your doll house and dont ever come out

its a big bad world

heaven and hell

2009-03-09T19:41:00.002+08:00

i feel like i have been to heaven and now i think im falling at free fall speed, straight into hell.

almost can visualise myself landing in a cage and shackles mysteriously appearing at my ankles

and then i find myself staring at a horned creature with no eyes, no nose, just words emblazoned across its face->>>>>>>EXAMS

oh gawd...im feeling depressed

the convo

2009-03-05T21:51:00.004+08:00

he really does..sometimes.. make me angry ON purpose

but im glad he is back:)

yippeee aye yeahhh

2009-03-04T19:46:00.002+08:00

skyping with da man is tedious

his connection sux to the core

and he looked retarded :p

HAHAHAH

the first one made him look a lil chip munky and the second one was his after-flying face

on a side note, i saw my friend's msn nick and it suddenly gave me some thoughts

how can love survive such a graceless age

hmmm

i know, in such an environment, it takes so much for 2 person to stay together for a long time.

in an environment filled with temptations, sins, greed, stress and more....

on a more micro aspect, the matching of characters and knowing when to compromise are major ingredients in a love dish. too much of everything spoils the dish. too little means too bland

OH how harddddddd buttttttttt

i dont wanna think so much..just taking one step at a time and giving a shot at romance.

anyways shu shu your latest blog entry is so sweet:)

back to researching!! one and a half months left before exams

the usually slack florence have to mug a mug mug..goodbye free time

i saw a miss-ed

2009-03-03T19:25:00.003+08:00

i saw her today. she called out to my friend not knowing that im with her.

hmm so it was pretty awkward, with me looking at her and her looking away.

dont smoke too much okay? bad for health

take care. i wish i could share with you what is gg on in my life now.maybe in a few years

anywayssssssss.........

my bf got angry over the heartbreak thingie..how petty can he be right? tskkk haha

nah im just kidding..i miss you nickie nick

2 days <3

and the webcam is for me to take my own hiao pictures haha

TATA

A-longing

2009-03-02T17:58:00.002+08:00

I miss a friend

i miss how it is like to bitch to her about sch and people

i miss how it is like to talk to her on the phone for hours

i miss how we used to club together

whenever i get upset or excited, the first person i will text is her

she comforted and listened to me when i had my 1st and 2nd heartbreaks

but i wasnt there for all of hers.

maybe i was one of hers too

im sorry

if you hadnt said bye, i dont think it would ever be a bye

HEY YOU

2009-03-01T21:35:00.003+08:00

HEY YOU

see what see???!!

im in a terrible mood.

my term paper is half done and suppose to be due on tueday.

realleh in HAWT SOUP but i just dont feel like writing. when words dont come to you naturally, no matter how much you want to force them out, they wont!

everything just sound so contrived even if there are.

SUCKS

:(

2009-02-27T18:56:00.002+08:00

The interview went well, more than well i would say. From my point of view of course, it could be different for the interviewers. Pray that they think the same way as i do.

Today, the urgency to do work fell from the sky like newton's apple and knocked me out.

farking alot of things to do!! OHMYTIAN

and and and, im home on a friday night, trying to finish all the readings while you-know-who is making merry like many others. drink drank drunk. die died died.

*WARNING TO YOU KNOW WHO- YOU BETTER BE CAREFUL else.....*

I am highly tempted to head out but i know i will die if i do that. I must finish all my work or rather 1/2 of the dued assignments before nick comes back.

:(:(:( why the readings so borrrrrinnngggggg

OMG

2009-02-24T14:22:00.002+08:00

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

just when i thought all's lost, i received a phone call at 1 plus when i was still groggy.

'heeelllooo....?'

'hi this is XXX calling from ministry of manpower....'

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

siao liao

haha

can someone please give me advice on how to ace interviews??

THANK YEWWWWWW

it is monday

2009-02-23T20:15:00.002+08:00

It is rainy monday;

tick tock mundane.

read a little bit;

and study by alphabets.

raindrops fall like diamonds;

as i watch the pavement shine.

going back to the books;

never quite got the kick

like thinking about nick

out out out

2009-02-22T22:51:00.003+08:00

i think im going crazy right now

i shouldnt have stayed home and watched this super duper fantastic drama called Dexter which tongj lovingly dled for me just so i will have things to do when he is not around. smart eh?that way i wun disturb him haa

the thing is florence shldnt have so much time. something is wrong. too artificially free dont you think?

kays, im going to study tml with yuan and subsequently get everyone out for dinner.

me mum and sisters not around either. how chill

BUCK UP LIL FLO!!!

i didnt expect

2009-02-21T20:32:00.003+08:00

The previous post is filled with angst because I was really pissed when an irrelevant, judgemental, pompous arsehole remarked" XXX is a fighter pilot, he could have better choices'

that fucker. who gave him the right to say who should be with who? *eyes roll until hit ceiling

When im really sian, i dont feel like talking to anyone. that was what happened and tongJ thought i was angry at him. what i was really doing was to give myself some time to cool down, heal and regenerate all the muscles lost to that stab in the heart.

so sweet of him to come over just to make sure i was ok:)

eh JURONG TO AMK AND BACK TO JURONG

seriously, now we really spent every free minute together. when he is at work, i am in school. after work, he will come over to ntu, pick me up and send me home. or we go...... (hahaha cannot say)

However at this mo' he is far away in the land of smiles- Thailand undergoing training for 2 weeks. ok now im super not used to NOT having him around to irritate the hell out of me.

GUESS WHOOOOOOO??? haha

come back soon soon soon.. soon soon come back

safe and sound

sound and safe

i hate screw ups

2009-02-17T17:18:00.002+08:00

how are you feeling right now?

shitty..like in the dumps

why?

as if i knew why the sky is blue

so is everything fine now?

yea it is. i know everything is fine except myself

when things stopped being funny

2009-02-17T00:55:00.002+08:00

maybe i do have a sizeable ego or pride. i cannot stand being look down upon or trampled..not even the slightest bit

i hate it when pple look at me with coloured eyes and i always will feel as thou i did something wrong when i didnt.

i wish i could say' fuck care about what they say, i do my own thang' because no one in this world can really control what others say. the extent of me minding how people look/judge me is probably larger than what i would like to admit. i shld try to let it all go and just dun care about anything but opening a gate like that isnt as simple as unbolting the lock.

anal or what

or maybe i cant stand myself being flawed..part of me still craves perfection and hate to admit that im full of wrongs

which means im sitting here, typing nonsense and feeling sorry for my ordinary and insignificant ass.

a joke fails when it stabs the heart

happy little girl

2009-02-15T22:11:00.003+08:00

i dont think im young enough to gush about this new person in my life. i feel stupid getting all mushy about stuff. like when we are young, we will unabashedly declare our everlasting love' oh dear dear i lub you deep deep' ( not that i ever did that but i know you peeps do).

now, i will diss girls who just report whatever they have done with their boyfriends every single day. like we want to know when your bf hugs you??

ok bitch, i am. i still read and diss. haha

HOWEVER, i do love reading my friends' entries about fun and sweet outings with their beloved. when i am single, i would sigh upon feeling that kind of sweetness and feel happy for my friends.

it is just the way of writing it.

JUST for my friends, this is how i celebrated vday

i went prawning with IFS peeps and my irritatingly retarded frying eaglre came and ate one of my prawns. we have 4 each;) ok so i had 3..damn him

then its valkryie time which totally bores the hell out of me. seriously, i have never ever wanted to walk out of a cinema before and this show almost, ALMOST make me wanna break that record. maybe i really am not interested in history and how hitler ruined people.

after that excruciatingly idiotic show, we went sentosa with our ikea bought rug and cushions and just watch the stars till the sun came up. the super ultra sweet until diabetic MOI presented my present and that eaglre was so guilty that he didnt get one for me in time. ahahaha i kill people with kindness

so we bought cheapo sandwiches and our fav yam yam as our vday breakkie and headed back respectively to sleep. moon bathing is very tiring you know

haha

i got my present in the afternoon. all i can say is that im a very happy girl now hahaha

we are happy people with happy presents!

dinner was at his cousin's baby's 1st birthday party where i met his entire family tree of people. intimidating but im such a charmer so no worries:)

day over? not quite so

we headed over to dragonfly and lunar because his apache friends need people to help finish their bottles-.- nah haha kidding la.. just honing our 5-10 skills

ok so my poor frying eaglre drank alot( for me too) haha

so there, i have revealed my vday activities with a little amount of gush- documentary form

how about urs????

btw TT is up again!!!

zoo yoo yoo

2009-02-12T22:09:00.003+08:00

The ugliest butt ever

he who must not be nice

always try to be funny

pictures can explain right

OH YES
HAPPY BIRTHDAY YUANNNN
HOPE U LIKE LITTLE PUDDING
we love you:)

sa ca

2009-02-10T16:39:00.002+08:00

sa ca?( how are you)

sa va.( im fine)

french quiz tml and i still played badminton with IFS peeps till late afternoon. i cant help feeling guilty and death by ignorance is hovering over my head.

as i was reading all those grammar and verbs, i was thinking of how we used to learn english. we used to carry this blue grammar book during pri sch and teachers forced us to memorise the whole book. spelling and dictation are my favourites because i can always get stars for these tests.

well at that age, stars are all you aim for. shiny red, gold and blue stars..the more the better.

and now, most of us are proficient in english with the exception of me and my horrendous grammar. i think i focused abit too much on the stars and for some reason, i dont know what is an adjective-.- it took us more than a decade to master a language.

now im attempting to learn a language, such a demanding one indeed, all in one semester. i could almost visualise tom cruise with my face super imposed on his body in mission possible UN, DEUX, TROIS....etc

i wish i could learn everything very quickly, have a photographic memory and a multi pentium super computer of a brain. WHY SOH STOOPIG

RETARDED

i had a great new year

2009-01-29T14:01:00.005+08:00

as quickly as the money comes, they are almost gone now. oopsy

all for a few days of happiness, i guess it isnt too much.

is my dress niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee???? sorry ar abit blur but i think u all can make out the design

i think i have taken a million pictures of her. she is so getting cuter day by day, am i right?

love her to bits

now that they are not at amk, i do feel abit lost and especially after CNY. boo hoo hoo, i have to wash my own clothes now. haha

i Niu i was good

2009-01-27T22:59:00.001+08:00

Happy NIU year!!! i love CNY:) peektures really soon but now i have to show yall this test i took

http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx

i think it kinda sums me up

Your view on yourself:

Other people find you very interesting, but you are really hiding your true self. Your friends love you because you are a good listener. They'll probably still love you if you learn to be yourself with them.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:
Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.

Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:
You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.

What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:
You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.

blame it on new year

2009-01-22T16:22:00.002+08:00

i seriously am in NO mood to study or even read notes. CNY is cominggggggggggg

yiipppeee..i know visiting is a chore but i love it when everbody gather together for a nice homecooked meal.

meanwhile, im just quietly waiting for that day to come. CNY eve ahaha

oh yes i watched 'Changeling'-the movie and 'Dying to tell a story'- documentary and i found the similarity btw these two which is prolly why i was affected

Both are about death. the darkness is undeniable

go google it. VERY interesting

i even went to google and watch daniel pearl decapitation. i know i know

gross gross blah blah

but 'dying to tell a story' is about photojournalists who risked their lives for public service, like covering wars and terrorism. Wanting to go there is like being given a ticket to hell. many died and dan eldon is one of them. go see his colourful paintings and pictures before he got killed by the very people he helped saved.

the irony of it all is heart wrenching

Changeling is even more scary. i cannot imagine losing my kids and discover that they are being tortured, molested, raped and butchered to death. i told my sis' imagine losing kyra, we will all go crazy'

thank god we are safe:)
