Slavery


I am coerced into doing drudgery by my sister.

She is making me clear out her table by the end of the week.



Because she is going to make me cough out "fifty dollar", in her very own words, if I fail to comply
Strange request from a woman who relies on her mother to clear her stuff regularly

I mean, I have better things to do. Like blog about Swisshôtel's food and other exclusives which aren't on Facebook, assuming most of you have me on Facebook already.

Kkays semi-kidding, that is a fire hazard and should be cleared. BUT I found the fee required unnecessary.

You know those cheesy plaques which say "God made us sisters but life made us friends"? Yeah well for me, it stops at "sisters".

A very wedding beginning


Trying to keep up on the backlog of things that have happened so next time I can fondly look back at these memories:')

Mr Song's wedding
3rd December 2011

SATs in the morning was meh, fast forward! Ben was in my class, how coincidental! Went to Orchard Road Presbyterian Church tgt and surprise surprise, we both got lost and had to take the mrt back and walk-.-

He had a nautical theme which was the cutest thing ever! Everyone was encouraged to dress in white, blue, red, stripes or polka dots. Most followed the dress code! I wore a blouse and a vintage skirt.

Anyway the place was amazingly serene (if you closed your eyes)



You can see half of Mr Song

There were lots of singing of Christian songs, and everyone seemed to know how to sing them. I felt like I was in a pop concert whereby I didn't know the singer and everyone's singing enthusiastically. So I stood there and let the voices wash over me.

I had such a bad seat, I think our whole role was. If I don't move, I see the back of his head. If I move to the right, I see him but not her. If I move left, I see both their heads with their faces blocked by the pillar grr

But I didn't miss the part where they said their vows and KISSED, like seriously how often do you see teachers kiss (NEVAAAAA)

He professed his love and she did too I was like GOOSEBUMPS((: The atmosphere of the church made everything so much more simplified.

And he was thanking his parents and she was too, and she started TEARING omg I swear that was super touching, I could feel tears welling up in my own. So sweet<3

And for the finale they sang a duet as they walked down the aisle OMG a totally Glee wedding!!(:

We took pix in the church!







Anyway, SUMPTUOUS LUNCH (so Mr Song said, I wasn't inclined to believe him)

It was so damn good, gosh more new and amazing food just kept coming and coming!!! There was a desert table with all kinds of fruit tarts, honeydew and seafood salad, assorted cakes, jelly fish, whole baby octopus

Okay before I continue, WHY IS THE OCTUPUS ON THE DESERT TABLE

It was nothing short of fascinating to watch C chew off her octopus head with much gusto and offer me to decapitate another ("BEHEAD IT!")

So I did since I figured I won't pay good money to eat that.
I carefully chewed off the head and was playing with it using my tongue when ITS BRAIN SLID OUT.

Even now I get goosebumps. (when Billy ate it during prom earlier I gave him the dirtiest look ever. "I'm judging you!!") Cheryl and Cui Er were both highly tickled and totally unsympathetic to my plight. Pfft maybe 吃脑补脑, I'll become smarter:>

After lots of eating (laksa! Satay! Fish! Almond chicken! Clams/oysters (ooh aphrodisiac mr song winkz)! Soft shell crab! AND MORE) we took pix and finally one with the popz boy of the day







Stay happy Mr Song!(:

P.S. Unearthly hour blogging because I'm trying to dry my hair
P.P.S. After two rounds of make up removal and washing, my eyes still glitter. Well. The glitter have recombined with my DNA and now I exude shinez. MOVE ASIDE EDWARD!
P.P.P.S. Ring rash:(

I HAVE A RING RASH:(

Omg the ring area is like red and it's peeling like a molting onion

"Over the course of a few days to weeks, a small red patch of skin may begin to appear under the ring. This rash may initially come and go spontaneously and after a while become chronic."

:(

*edit: Boiling the ring in hydrogen peroxide and vinegar might help.. Where do I get H2O2??????

Happiness





If I can only make one wish for Christmas, it'll be that I will be happy.

When my friends and family are happy, I'm happy.

When they're safe, I'm happy.

When I get to spend time bonding and connecting with them, I'm happy.

When they accept me for who I am and for the decisions I make, and forgive me if I made any mistakes, I'm happy.

I don't need fancy gifts, nor a new earphone although I'm quite desperate for one. I'll be contented with the leaky Apple ones I have. Because contentment is living life by appreciating the things you have, not the things you don't.

"The essay question was: what do you want to be when you grow up. I wrote 'happy'. The teacher said I didn't understand the assignment. I told her she didn't understand life."


Such a deceptively easy wish, yet so hard to fulfill. All it needs is for one brick to be out of place, and your castle falls to pieces.

So. I spoilt the right side of my only other in-ear earpiece too.

And I was at the library at 4.45pm and guess who didn't get to return her SAT books cos the librarians were all "O so sorry the counter is closed:> The library closes at 5. The counter closes at 4.30."

"Er.. So can I pay my fines now?"

"No no the counter is closed you see:)"

Well yeah fuuu-.-

LOTS AND LOTS OF GLORIOUS EXPLETIVES TO YOU

passer; this was why I was forced to grow up so fast

Amanda's Weekly Guide To Life 3:
EAR PIERCING

1. Make sure you have thought through it very carefully!
I thought through it for 5 years. Very very careful indeed.

2. Choose a reliable ear piercing place!
Go online to forums (there's one that's like kiasu parents dot com or something) they disuse where are the best places (B*Dazzled vs Goldheart; disposable plastic cartridge vs reusable gun; clean shot vs possible shattering of ear cartilage respectively)

Also, read horror stories of gold earrings causing toddlers to bleed out from two extra holes and stuff

Did you know ear piercing was deemed to be a sign of slavery in the olden days?

3. Choose an auspicious date
Well not really auspicious but
I) 1st Dec is easy to remember
II) Happy world AIDs day!
III) 6 months~~ ^^

4. Touch your unholey earlobes one last time!!! Take a photo for remembrance!




Well the actual piercing was quite hyped up because I had a small audience which consisted of my sis, mom, another mom and her two kids.

After rubbing my earlobes with alcohol ("What nice earlobes you have! You should pierce!" tyvm, if people say I look like a deformed potato I can say "well at least I have pretty earlobes!") she sprayed some Himalayan-cold antiseptic on them and they turned red immediately (it's really cold!!!)

And Other Mom said "you can see je je pierce! Not pain one!" and I was all :> admittedly, being flanked by two woman and hearing her go one, two, three I held my breath in anticipation and felt the earrings being driven into my earlobes.

It is less painful than when bf flicks me with his fingers. Much much less painful.

Anyway I wanted to yell OMGAHHH OW but nvm la don't scare little kids later they have nightmares about deformed potatoes having their earlobes pierced

There was a little numbing pain after a while as the anesthetic wore off but if I didn't focus on the pain, it was fine(:



Looks unimpressive right hahaha I didn't choose their diamond/gemstones earrings cos I figured if I were to wear diamond earrings, I'd rather a pair which has GIA certification, or some sort of certification so I can sit by the fireplace and pass them on to my grandchild and tell them stories

..wait no link

Anyway look at this cute Forever21 tweezers+eyelash curler



Blingzified!!!
I shall take good care of them and hope none of the rhinestones drop off




Island Creamery with the dears(:
