Sometimes I wonder
Tuesday, September 9, 2014,

What what what? Why is everyone getting married?

Last Friday, my 24-years-old cousin got married. It's quite scary how time flies. The previous time I went back to Malacca, I was still playing with her and discussing about travelling together. Now, she has became someone's wife.

Have you ever wonder how your other-half will look like?

To be honest, watching people around me getting married does make me feel a little green. However, on the other hand, I don't think I can handle relationship/marriage. I am too friendly with everyone and I don't think I have enough time for that other-half.

Recently I got really concerned towards Josey's love life. For some of you who do not know about Josey going to SIT, she had started school and got to know a bunch of pretty girls and not-bad guys. Well, as usual, I asked her to aim for look because I know she cannot stand ugly people. Can you imagine her having a boyfriend lousier than Yeehern? Nah! She wouldn't. FASTER! BRING A BOY BACK, GIRL.






HEY, BRO!
Friday, April 25, 2014,

God, damn it! Not again?


Do you know how depressing it is for me whenever I do a quiz and they tell me I am one of the guys or I am a tomboy? WHAT THE HELL!

I am a girl, right?
Recently I have been on this topic with Josey, just wondering if I am too man in certain ways. I just get "bro" easily by people around me. This topic didn't just come out of no where. We were asking ourselves how come we have no boyfriend for so many years. (P.S exclude the part where she dated Yeehern for only 7 days) We realized it's the way we were brought up and we are just too good with everyone.

I am prone to beat up my sisters and fighting with them over any toys. Mischievous kid when I was young and I remember I broke a glass panel because I was playing football in the room. Kicking a ball down from the 11th storey because I just love to play poison ball with my neighbors. Running up and down the block because block catching is fun. Exploring some ulu places of my old primary school because I want to make friends with some ghost. Lying to my mother I have projects to do and ended up playing at some arcade. If not, I will be sitting at home trying to level up my character in Runescape. Wow! It's really normal to me until recently, I realized that's not what all girls do when they were a kid.

Now let's take for example, secondary school in a class with 30 boys and 10 girls. This is normal to me as well! Maybe it's just me. I don't really care about you being a boy and me being a girl until all the puberty things came in and when boy-girl-relationship was something hot and trendy. Everyone is equal to me!

If you were to say that I am too man, I have to say that my guy friends are just too gay! They take more selfies and care more about their looks and figure more than me. Making sure that they look awesome when they go out while shopping and singing are their hobbies. Now you tell me, who is stuck?

I have been buddies with my girl and guy friends for years. No sparks and I have no idea what spark is all about. Don't even try asking me about love, because I am a total noob.

Now, back to the topic. I am a girl, right? What a stupid question! Obviously I am a girl because I have boobs, long hair and a very feminine figure. I have no biceps, no abs, no whatever back muscles. I have no husky and manly voice. I cannot lift heavy things like dragon boaters. I can't even do one pull up. I love shopping. I love singing. I love barbie dolls. I love dramas. I love boys and I am straight. I love dresses and skirts. Here is my next question, why do I get bro so easily?

Sometimes I wonder if it's because I have a damn-it-too-thick-skin. My friends would just tell me I look like shit. No little white lies or gentle truths to be found. I am used to being teased, mocked and laughed at all in the name of good fun. I mean I love the way I am. I can cook, I can sew, I can do housework, I can make a lot of DIY stuff. I feel so much like a girl here. Awwwww~

BUT PEOPLE. No, guys!Can you all stop "bro-ing" me? You all need to stop telling me about sex, porn and girls. Eventhough I like to say, "If only I have a dick" but that's when I want to try something risky or dangerous which is not suitable and safe for a girl to do. I know I sound contradicting here but I want to continue playing with you guys but at the same time I want to be treated like a girl.

Oh,wow!




Sail and not drift

Sailing sailing sailing. 
Satisfied satisfied satisfied

I have been missing sailing for quite sometime. Eventhough the wind yesterday wasn't strong enough to make me fly out of the boat but it does satisfied that hunger in me. The wind was light and Kennedy did a foul play by pushing himself and his boat away using mine when we rounded the buoy. WHAT AN ASS! 

I really miss the feeling when the wind blows on to my face. When I have to hike out to balance the boat. The sound made by the daggerboard when it cuts the water. Awwww~ Graduating from the CCA, leaving the competitive team I love so much does make me feel sad. I still remember how badly I wanted to go for NSC Team when I was in year one. No matter how badly my seniors screamed or shouted at me, I just shut up, follow and sail. I really miss those days when I just go down to Poly Marina to sail, nothing else. 

Yesterday, it feels like time went back to three years ago. When we would visit West Coast Market for dinner. Ordering our all-time favourite chicken chop and oyster omelette. As usual, Kennedy will be bullying me and Jin laughing at me. Eventhough I am the target but we had fun. Time passed quickly, I don't even want to go home when I was feeling so damn tired. 

To be honest, I never regret joining this club eventhough at the end I lost a bit but I am sure I gained quite a lot. At least I can tell people this, "Hey, I have seen 2m tall waves and sailed through 20 plus knots storm!". Hahahahaaaaaa Well, my seniors like me, I have also found a few friends who are willing to eat with me without judging. Friends who are willing to let me rage for no good reasons but still love me because they know I do no harm. And those adorable and obedient juniors who respect me and treat me like their friends. What more can I ask for? 

I just hope that the current members can have this positive mindset and attitude towards the CCA. Love this sport, sun, wind, boat and the people around them. Lastly, here are the selfies we took. 





JB One Day Tour
Saturday, April 19, 2014,



Awesome! Today, Janice and I bought tickets to Malacca for this coming 1st May. 

Yes, I am going on a vacation with the sailors again. This time round is with Noobshit Look, Irritating Ng, Blur Queen Yang, Crazy Wong and Blackie Tan. 4-days-3-nights at popo's house is gonna be fun. To be honest, I am really worried for the jam that is gonna happened on 1st May. Public Holiday, Woodlands and Malaysia custom confirm has heavy traffic jam. What if we missed the bus? OMG! 

Anyway, I really hate Johor Bahru, in short JB. I have no idea why I hate this place so much. Maybe because of the crime rate and the holes they have on their roads. To me, JB is just not as safe as Malacca. Oh well, I guess Malacca is the safest and the most beautiful state. Local speaking! 

Oh! As I was saying, I hate JB but today Janice brought me to heaven! KSL City is awesome and it has everything. Cinema, Kbox, Arcade, thumbsup casual restaurants we have in Singapore and lots of shopping. I think we spent like 5 hours in that shopping center. Fish Market is just RM33/person, it's almost the same in Singapore. Difference? IT'S IN RINGGIT. What is the most important to me? Cheap with quality! Everything is in RM and spending RM is so fun.

Both of us got so excited for our next visit. We also remembered Nicholas and Thiamhock still owe us a JB trip since last term. BOYS, WHEN ARE WE VISITING? We can go for movie, we can sing songs until our lungs burst and eat until we vomit. Let's fix a date soon k? 




#Sailorsfullofdrama
Monday, April 7, 2014,

Gan! Damn the ulcer under my gum. I think I am stupid enough to hit my gum with the toothbrush because this is the nth time already. It's freaking painful that it's killing me and I think it worsen after yesterday. All thanks to those cheese meatballs. >.<

Alright, back to topic. 
I AM BACK FROM PENGERANG! WOOOOOHOOOOOO~ 



Now, where is this Pengerang? 
Pengerang is an area at the southeastern tip of Johor, to the south of Desaru.(Wikipedia) 
To keep it short, MALAYSIA!

What am I there for? 
Cycling! Because I was invited by Janice to join them with the SP Adventurers. 
Yay, my juniors love me. (twists)


We were asked to assemble at Changi Point Ferry Terminal at 7.30am. You are right! I am cursing and swearing after getting to know the place and time. Woodlands to Changi, I can't even reach it please. Thiamhock and Vanessa told me to wake up at 445am, I almost stab myself in front of them. Janice was nice enough to give us a morning call. Experiences told me that I can never pack in the morning and leave the house on time. So, I finished everything at around 1am and head to bed after that. Waking up at 445am is like asking myself to run 10 rounds around SP. IMPOSSIBLE! Alright, at least I felt Janice's effort. Dragging myself out of bed after 15 minutes of battle with myself.

I thought I was a good girl, at least for the first time I can be on time. Guess what! Thiamhock just woke up when I left the house and Vanessa was on block mode, still sleeping. Remember, what Nicholas once said? Northlanders can never be early. We had so much dramas before the sunrise. 3 idiots catching the same bus at different location. I didn't know that Northpoint has two bus stops and I panicked while receiving Thiamhock's countdown messages. 2 minutes before the bus came, I found the right bus stop. Thiamhock keeps telling me that the bus was damn packed and I was having the thought that the bus will leave without me. That fear in the morning!

Second one to board the bus and I still haven't seen Vanessa. High chance she will board the bus opposite her block. The bus gets sardine-packed as it rolls to its next stop. This girl can't survive without her phone so she wants to get her phone charged as much as possible. (the bus arrived at her stop) You can see her mental fighting with an uncle just to be the first to get up the bus.   

AWESOME! ALL THREE GOT UP THE BUS. You thought that's all? Don't underestimate us! 
The three of us were laughing at Janice for not learning her lesson. When she goes out with the sailors, she will always be the earliest. Not because she was early, it's because we are forever late. 10 more minutes before the minute hand strikes 6, we were at Tampines. While Simon gets his dad to give us a ride. (boommmz) Where are we going again? Changi Ferry Terminal. EH, NO! Changi Point Ferry Terminal (boommmmmmz again) AND FINALLY,  WE REUNITED WITH JANICE. 


2 days 1 night with them was awesome. 
First time sitting a bumboat to Malaysia and it was unique. Eventhough it was not as thrilling as compared to us driving the powerboat but it was still something cool, I guess. Just like illegal immigrants! The hotel was awesome! The adventurers were kind to us. They managed to get us a room with two queen beds so that we wouldn't get separated. The greatest thing was the toilet. It looks really high-class for a budget hotel in a small town. 



Sailors are forever hungry. The moment we arrived, we went to the mini mart downstairs to buy everything we see. As long as it's food, it goes to the bill because spending ringgits is so fun! We got potato chips, pringles, milo, ribena, peanut cookies and chips more. What is gym? Vanessa and I almost gotten ourselves cup noodles but dinner was getting near so we gave up that idea. 

Dinner was one of the highlights for this trip. 
BABY LOBSTER, LALA, BABY SOTONG, FISH, KANGKONG, SPECIALTY TOFU. ALL THE YUMZ. All these cost us only RM40+/person. Good food and cheap price. Thumbsup! Looks tempting right?  


After dinner we were given some free time and because I can never stop taking unglams. 
Soooooooooo......


and cycling


Before returning to Singapore



To summarize up everything, it was a trip full of joy, laughter and scandals. 
Pre-vacation for Janice, Vanessa and I. 
Can't wait for the next trip with the girls. 




Sisters' Expedition 2014
Tuesday, April 1, 2014,


It was a little overdue but another expedition made successful! 

I would say that it was one of the most relaxing expeditions I have been to. Games I/C was indeed an easy job for me! Crazy ideas? Nah! They were fun and exciting. Grouping the adventurers and sailors together, making them suffer just makes me feel entertained. Do I sound sick here? I was pretty glad that my seniors and alumni joined in. It was like an achievement unlocked because they would usually just slack around. To be honest, I was happy that everyone gave me their attention and put in their best in those games we had prepared. 

The day-games were really fun! Definitely I have to give myself and my assistant a pat on the back. I am not bragging but the feedbacks that came back made me feel contented. Eventhough this is what a year3 senior should receive but I just want to show off. 

Night game was not really successful, at least to me. I didnt expect my new game to take such a longggggggg time to get ready. If I am not wrong, the game got delayed for one whole hour and I feel bad. I got really upset and my morale dropped tremendously when the messenger told me that my alumni were still having their steamboat. That was not the main point! 

My game ran smoothly with the SP Adventurers and they showed me what teamwork and trust were all about. This is something Sailing Club is lacking of sometimes and I wonder if the new club committee would be able to bring back the lively atmosphere. 

Overall, food was awesome because I didn't go hungry. Logistic gave me what I need and safety brought me back on mainland safely. What more can I ask for? Eventhough there were a few conflicts going on but I believe the young ones managed to learn from it and forgive each other. 

Alright, I got to go and I will look forward to the next sailing event. FINALLY, AS AN ALUMNI! 

I shall make a post on the games next time, hopefully I wouldnt take too long to explain them. 




My Bestie's Wedding Day
Friday, February 28, 2014,


19.01.14

WOOOOOHOOOOO~ The long awaited photos are here. 
First of all, I have some things to clarify before I start off with the blog post. 

1. This is not a shotgun marriage
2. They did it because the feeling was right, the timing was right

Some of you were asking me this question - how old is your friend? 
Well, she is the same age as me, we are both '93. Exactly! She is 21 this year. 

Some of you were asking me this question - how long have they dated? 
Question well made! From secondary 1.


Many of you have heard me mention a lot about Josey and Fiona but I seldom talk about ShiQi. Reason, because she is a very-busy-lady-boss. ShiQi is one whom I cherish a lot a lot a lot. I knew her since secondary one, I would say we stick to each other everyday, every hour and every minute. I knew her by coincidence, her register number was one number ahead of mine. I was invited by her to go for lunch together because she saw me alone every recess(my friends were all in the express stream). This is how we started off as friend. Lame right? 

I was a little plump girl back then(I am still plump though), and I used to kick her everytime I sit down for morning assembly. She would scold me and I would reply her with an awkward smile. ShQi is one noisy girl, she can talk, laugh and scream at the same time. I believe I am noisy enough but trust me, this girl is worse. If you guys find me weird and crazy, she is many level above me.  

From classmates to friends, from friends to family. ShiQi is sometimes like my younger sister when she chicken out when she had to face her parents for chalet, stayover, late nights out and etc. She is sometimes like my older sister when I am stuck in life. She would give me constructive suggestions, ideas and solutions. Lending me her shoulder when I need to cry. To be honest, she knows me better than I know her. She is like my second mother! Every movement, expression and word I made, she knows exactly what I need and want. I don't have to say a lot or do a lot to make her understand me. 

I got into the bridesmaid' list 9 months before the wedding day. Believe me, I was jumping and hopping around, totally in cloud nine when ShiQi told me that her wedding date is confirmed. Getting Anita to be in the list is one of our goals for that big day.


Eventhough we didn't manage to get Choo Mei Hua to wear dress 
but we did our best to make her pretty. #winks



Wedding Day is quoted to be one of the most tiring days in our life. It is really tiring! All of us woke up at 4am to get ourselves ready for the morning games and tea ceremony. Watching ShiQi getting ready makes me happy and sad. Happy because she found someone who loves her and she loves him too. Sad because from today onward, I have to ask her husband for permission if I want to bring her out for fun night.



This relationship of theirs did not come easy. Objection from her parents was once so strong that they broke up during lower sec and never met for months. I am always the bridge when they need to meet up. Her mother will call me and ask if I am with her naughty daughter. Obviously I will say yes when ShiQi went dating with the boyfriend her mum hates. What is love at that age, many would say. This idiot broke up and got back with her husband so many times and I was unfortunately involved every time. I still remember Yongzhang woke me up at 3am just to tell me I have to take good care of her, make sure she eats, make sure she is happy. I guess I am his best friend when it comes to ShiQi because I am the only one who supports him until today. When papa and mama covered her with the veil, we all cried. Tears of happiness, sending her off to a new chapter of life.




I always wanted to give this idiot the best, giving her my time, giving her my energy, giving her everything she needs. Dinner was worse, I tears again during solemn ceremony, when she walked into the hall, during the song she sang, when her wedding video was playing and when I went home after the whole dinner ended. I can't remember how many times I cried. My tears would just flow down whenever I see the couple together. I admit that I am quite an overly-attached-girlfriend and I love her more than words can describe.


Dinner was awesome, ladyboss indeed a ladyboss. Desmond and Anita were pretty much enjoying the wine while I was busy crying. Fiona, Yeehern, Elliott and Josey were busying commenting on decoration, food, people, and everything. While Weiching plays the guitar for ShiQi and Weiren getting all emo because the girl he once liked is getting married and the groom is not him. #justkidding


  
Nothing gets better than this. Reunion dinner with Anita and Desmond and all my loved ones were present. 

Now I wonder who will be the next to get married. We always say that Yeehern will get married early if he accidentally shotgun someone. Fiona and Elliott are the two holy kids that made us worry. Either they get back together or they find new partner to join the big family. Josey will most probably be single forever if she don't want Yeehern. Weiching is always in his own world, talk a lot but we always don't get to see any girl. Weiren and Dora is another happy couple.

Christ Church brought all of us together and our friendship to a whole new level. Seeing everyone growing up, changing to be a better person, get into a good school, having an awesome job, be in a relationship, marrying someone we love and have a family. This is what we called life.

I am 21 this year and I have gone through (at least getting involved) quite a bit of what need to happen in life. What about you? What is your story?




Lastly, to my dearest ShiQi!
Congratulations on your marriage, may your marriage be happy and blessed. Remember your beloved pink-pig will always love you. If Lin Yong Zhang dare to bully you, I will punch him up and sit on his face.




Recce
Sunday, February 9, 2014,

OMGGGGGGGGGGG! I am 1kg heavier. ):

Remember I once made this 30-days-challenge post? It failed terribly and that is why I don't even dare to update you guys about it. I shall make another challenge soon! I swear I am gonna run at least 5 times a week because everyday is gonna kill me. #YOSHA




Anyway! Today, the few of us went for a recce at Lazarus Island and Sisters' Island for the upcoming Sailing Expedition. Yes! You might be wondering why am I still meddling with sailing's stuff when I am graduating soon. Hmmmm~ Well, my juniors just can't bear to let me go in peace. They told me that this would be my farewell gift. How nice of them right? #sobs It seems like I can't really part with these lovely kids. Despite them being so evil, I agreed to help them with games and continue to be their most-obedient-senior. 

Simon got everyone to be at PM at 8am this morning. Guess what time I woke up? 6.09am! When was the last time I woke up this early? I don't even wake up so early for 8am class and Simon should feel honored. Early in the morning, Vanessa and Thiamhock just can't give me any peace. They just wanna shoot down my awesome ideas for life. I guess I lack too much of sleep, it's like sugar-rush. I told Thiamhock that I wanna go for horse riding because I can loss weight. You wanna know what he replied me? "You sit on the horse, the horse run. The horse loss weight, not you" SEE! HOW EVIL. 

Vanessa was another monster! I was so happy that I can wake up early and walk out of  the house so I decided to reward myself with a good breakfast. I bought Croissan'wich from Burger King and guess what? This monster bugged me from Woodlands to PM, she keeps saying that I am unhealthy. Hey! That was a good breakfast k? Eventhough I mistaken bacon for ham. #itsucks

That was my exciting and noisy morning. Sometimes I wonder if I am too noisy or when I am with them they get noisy. Owell, it doesn't really matter as long as we love each other!

The journey to Lazarus was tedious, maybe it's just me. My body felt damn stiff after returning. The island was damn big and we couldn't find the jetty when we first rounded the island. The beach is damn nice! White sands with blue water. It's really different from the rest of Sentosa's islands. The whole island looks damn atas. They even have roads for vehicles to roll on. It's damn thumbsup but too bad, they only have one hut on that island? So we can't really camp there. Idea got write off and we are back to Sisters' Island. HAH!

To be honest, I can't wait for expedition. Maybe I am the only one excited for it but I really want to make that Princess Hut Christine and I planned for long. Awwww~ Okay! I shall take Vanessa's suggestion into consideration. INVITE EUGENE TO OUR PALACE.

By the way, the powerboats are killing me! The winch too. #tsk




新年快乐!

马年行大运! 


Yo! How did you spend your Chinese New Year?
As usual, I headed back to Malacca for the New Year. This year was better than last year eventhough I have to wake up really early in order to avoid the jam at the immigration checkpoint because I don't have to rush anything before going home. Journey back was rather smooth because I was sleeping throughout with only one toilet break.  

This year I was trying to be a better person. Once I reached my grandparents' place, I help to do more cleaning and try to stay put in the house. Washing the fans, cooking of lunch, washing of floor mats and preparing for the new year.

As always, fireworks were exploding everywhere in the village on the night of eve. Ying and I were on the scooter trying to get as close as possible to feel the 10m-away-excitement. I accidentally went too close and both of us thought we are gonna die from the random falling objects that came from the fireworks. That feeling was damn good! Interesting, exciting and fun. Eventhough we have it every year but this was the first time I brought my sister with me to "chase" fireworks. Despite the loud explosions, I went to bed right after 1am. Tiredness was torturing me badly since morning.

Day 1 of CNY! Every year, Chinese New Year is like a fashion show event in my family. From 1month baby to 80 years old granny, we all have to dress up in our best form. This year, I chose to be simple yet attracting not in the sense of face or figure but colour. Striking hot pink! #smirks

  

Now, don't judge my hair! It didn't really turn out the way I wanted it to be but anyway.....yup! This was my outfit for that day. Elegant right? Feminine right? My sisters were totally trying to sell themselves to some modelling companies. They keep posing and somehow I became a part time photographer. #rollmyeyes



Day 1 is forever so tiring! Every year our routine is the same. Wake up at 9am > prepare until 10am > leave gramps's for granduncle's for angbao collection > then to grandaunt's for another round of angbao collection > back to gramps's for lunch > visit guanyin temple > back home for dinner. 

Other than playing with fireworks and crackers, day 1 is forever a torture to me. My family has this tradition of eating veg for the whole day during lunar new year. Right, and I get hungry easily. Maybe gambling is something I would look forward to. New way of gambling this year and it's called In-between. It is something similar to Masood yet more exciting. Maybe I will teach you guys somewhat next time.

Day 2! All my aunts are coming back. This year all this ladies got lazy and we all steamboat our dinner away with Satay Celup. Some of you might find this term unfamiliar. It is something similar to Lok-lok but in a more Malacca's style. Soup based is satay sauce and you just dip every thing in. Some people might find it strange but it's really nice. Trust me! The food gourmet said so. 


New year should be the same in all Malaysian family. Family gets too big that sometimes we need to shout in order to talk. The amount of angbaos are increasing but the amount of digits in it stay the same. Even so, I still love going back. 


Okay, I am lazy to type already and I shall spam you guys with photos. Hopefully this year I can have more house visits in Singapore in order to counter the horrible exchange rate of 2.6.


我在这里祝大家马到成功,事事顺利!
