New Hairstyle!!!!!! Not too shabby, to be honest. I rather like it... It's WAY better than ponytail when u gt slightly-longer-than-shoulder-length hair and a clip(with the 'teeth').

Ponytail isn't on my list, neither was pinning my fringes up, or pigtails(NO WAY!) But now... I dunno what to call this.... Half ponytail?? *shrug* You let me know if u got the name for it.

Hahahas... When the hairdresser wanted to do my hair that way, she asked "Do you want you face to look sharper?" She CAN read my mind! ;) Hell, of cos I said yes. So she taught me how to do it.

Honestly and seriously speaking, it's my FIRST TIME EVER using this clip.. It's like a stranger in my hand, & the clip seemed to be telling me 'Practice using me or your hair will be messier than ever'. LOL! :D

Quite alright.. Gotta practice twisting my hair up before clipping them up, but i can managed that. I'm not gonna be beaten by a small clip that's smaller than my palm size... :)

Night Tennis is the best! Not too hot, not too cold... Pretty cool... And when you serve the ball(gotta throw up before hitting), there's no sunlight to shine into ur eyes. All around the court are high lamps, miniature size of those u can find around the stadium.

Played from 7.45pm to 10.00pm. I had a break for abt 5min at 8.25, and a long one from 9-9.30(my 5 fingers on my right hand are numbed). It was my sis who kept on playing straight, with 2 5-min break(one at 8.25pm, one at 9.15pm).

It was great! I changed a racket, this one is lighter for me(my size is small). And we watched videos of how Maria Sharapova served... =.= turns out we can bend our arm, so when I served, I use the badminton style(arms bended). It was easier..WAY EASIER! Phew!

We also tried catching each other's balls.. I gotta use 2 hands, my sis used 1-hand method. Becasue I'm so used to badminton style, so if I use 1-hand, i'll use my wrist and nt my elbow... and tennis u gotta use elbow for 1-hand catch. Almost sprained my wrist when I tried one hand. That was it for me. 2-hands is slower, but at least I managed to get the ball across the net.

Good newS? We can serve all balls across the net, w/o one leaving behind! ^_^ Some achievements.. Lol! :D

It was fun fun fun fun fun!!!!!!! gotta do it again, despite my left knee(front & back if it) were hurting badly after the whole game.

Call Me Irresponsible..... Call Me Unreliable... Call Me Anything U Want... I Don't Care.

I can't take it anymore...! =.=

It was fun @ 1st gg to work... making my worries all disappear. But the longer I stayed there, the longer I couldn't take it..

It's a chance of a life time, this I know, and it's great that I have "lobang" for my holidays.

In the beginning, I can really see myself living that life...But as the time goes by, 2wks later, I couldn't see myself in that kind of life anymore. It's like the images suddenly disappeared and being replaced by darkness.

Of course, going there let me learn something, somehow... If I put it in a nice way, it's going to a place to learn during the hols. But if I put it in the not-nice way, it's changing another environment for me to rot.

Haven't been to work for 3 days straight this week(Tue, Wed & Thurs), and 3 days last wk(2days r their hol, 1 is gd fri)... Every morning, I still gotta wake up early, pretend that I'm going to work, but actually I'm not. I just dun feel like going...

If you call that work...When there's no pay, and gotta spend at least half a day there just to see and listen. =.= Haiz... I dunno what to think anymore.

Good thing tml is the last day, I have to go, bcos of the present I had on hand. I really can't see myself living that kind of life, even though the environment is amazing, and I have my own desk.

Yea, missed my desk, but it's not enough to make me go there n waste half my day away w/o doing anything else and no pay but see, listen, see, hear, see, listen, see and hear...

Honestly speaking, I don't look forward to tml's time at the workplace... =.= Because I feel totally out of place.. the lifestyle is diff there,compared to what I've faced.. I donno what to do there, and there's nth for me to do.

The only thing making me look forward to going there is the date with my sis in the evening at Starbucks. But then, I'm pining for the ending of the day, not the beginning, nor the process...

Tell me, what's the use of going to work if I have that kind of attitude...?????? Dunno how did I get this attitude, but to me, I felt that 2weeks of changing place to rot is enough. When I'm at home, at least I get to do something.. Or when I'm in sales, yes, very exhausting, but at least there's pay

It all comes down to pay. And in my situation, if I'm interested abt something, I will do it, with or without pay ; if I'm not interested in something, pay is the only thing that I look forward to. This job s something that I am interested in, very interested in when my dad told me abt it. But as time goes by, with nth to do and nth to help, the interest will be diminished. Like in this case.

I may be superficial, yea, whatever. Yes, I admit I am. A job without pay is one thing, a job that requires no contribution and no pay is not a job at all. At least in my book. This is my job, and to me, 2 weeks plus of it is more than enough. =[ If I get to do something, help, contribute, do and not just rot away like a zombie, even without pay, I'll be happy.

Always thought that I was somebody who likes to take breaks, and work as well. But now, then I realize, if you get me to break for the whole day or for a few days straight w/o working, I might as well die. I guess the urge to work or to do something runs in the family.

Buffet was what I had for my "Lunch-Tea"....

There's "Brunch'', which is Breakfast + Lunch.

There's "Tinner", which is Tea-time + Dinner.

There's "Dunch" which was Lunch + Dinner.

And there's "Lunch-Tea", which was Lunch + Tea-Time.

Buffet @ Orchard Hotel was amazing! It was a last-min decision... cos I was dressed in sleeveless shirt and shorts(total gray). Dad(badminton game) and sis(tuition) were in tee shirt n shorts. But they din realize our dress codes and let us in. Maybe cos we're the 1st there, or maybe cos my dads a member of Ala Carte.

And if I knew w were going there... I would have brought my cam, & dress more nicely(maybe jeans instead of shorts).

Spend 2.5hrs there... from 2 - 4.30pm. Ate almost everything... Gotta do something for that 2.5hrs besides drinking tea and reading bks..

And also... it's REALLY EX! So gotta make it worth the price.

Bloated was the word... had quite a few rounds....
Round 1: Salad + Sushi + a spoonful of potato salad(they served in the soup spoon for each serving).

Round 2: Porridge + Duck meat + Dim Sum

Round 3: Chocolate Fondue (Honeydew & Marshmallows. Too bad they dun have strawberries)

Round 4: 2 Square pastries: 1 with mango and almond center, 1 with the mushroom center)

Round 5: Fruits! Healthy! Grapes and Watermelon.

Round 6: Caesar salad with additional ingredients of raisins and walnuts + another spoonful of potato salad + pastries toppings only (mango cubes, tomato cubes, almond flakes, lettuce chopped, pine nuts, and another spoonful of mushroom)

Round 7: Fruits again! ^^ No more watermelon so only took grapes (abt 10)

From round 1 - 7, had 4 cups of tea. @ the end, a cup of warm water.

WHEW! BLOATED! XD

Man! Was that great or was that great? XD
Once a while buffet, is really the deal... Totally hits the spot when you're starving! ;)

I already apologized.... What else do you expect from me???

These are the days I wish you were around, Z...Comforting me, Hugging me, Listening to me...

It's so hard for me to even hold back my tears... I didn't do anything wrong and all she does was accused me of things that I did not do, or things I did in the past...

Making it seems as if the whole world is at fault but you...

I admit, I have faults, but I'm not the ONLY ONE... :(

Said I'm sorry. It wasn't enough. Sat there listening to her words. It's not enough. Silently weeping as her chant her chant. It's still not enough. What else does she expect and want me to do?

I ran out of things to do. Sat there. Writing my story. Continue listening to her. Tears flowed down my cheeks. Tears stung my eyes, Nose blocked. Ears blocked. Eyes puffed.

I surrender. :'(

Network Battle of Dragon Ball Z... 1 word: EXHILARATING! That was totally awesome, network battling with my cousins... the 3 of us have PSP Lite, and the same game! Awesome!

It was sitting-on-the-edge-of-the-chair kind of fun... Well, i was the one doing that. They're playing like it's very natural. I had to keep pressing buttons and the controls and do combos just to get the upper hand. Sometimes, it's nt enough, cos they're just too fast and too good.

But I had my share of winning. @ some pt was off the chair and walking around as I pressed buttons and do combos and trying to win. Phew! It was great! Really doesn't matter if we didn't go to Craving Thoughts. Yea... made it a pt nt to go this wk, cos I'm broke and there's "Cars" on Disney Channel.. Wouldn't wanna miss it the 3rd or 4th times already. Lolz!

Pretty gd Saturday... gonna do that network battle again... have to train! Ciao! ;)

Sent dad to airport.. once again. This time, he's going to India.. A new place! Right... First, it was Starbucks for a before-dinner snack time(Hot chocolate for me, cafe latte for dad, cuppucino for sis and iced mocha for mom.)

Dinner... went to Fish & Co. Wasn't in the mood to visit airport, cos my eyes r killing me, and the blocked nose still hasn't ceased... But it's airport... I will DEFINATELY make time for that! ^_^

Had seafood platter.. their new deal. And it was REALLY HUGE!!!!!! 4 BBQ fresh king prawns, 2handfuls of fresh BBQ squids, 4 fresh scallops, 2 fishes, some rice and fries. SWEET! Really sweet.. they're so fresh! But if u eat with their sauce.. it's another diff sensation: lemon butter sauce, tatar, chilli sauce. :)

It's really delicious and it's my first time, and also my mom's first time to the Fish & Co. and it's quite a good impression :)

Visit to Mrs Lee's House on CNY.... Srry for the delay, guys and gals. :)

Watched a movie... home movie actually on HBO.. Entitled ''Stay Alive''. I won't watch this show in cinema, it's already a horror movie, yet it's in an enclosed area with the lights turned off.. The creepy factor is at least 5 times the usual creepy factor.

But I would really regret if I didn't watch this movie.. This was what I felt after I watch the movie with my sister in the room(with the lights on). Lucky I watched it, and it's totally awesome!

The story, for those who nv heard of it.. is about this group of people who played a video game called 'stay alive', and then they died in real life. And get this... The way they died in real life is EXACTLY the same as the way they died in the game!

It was like after 2-3 murders before they realized that their frenz died the same way they did in the game. They tried warning the police, but then nobody took them seriously. So one of the police started the game and got himself brutally.

Then all were left were these 4 characters: 2 guys, 2 girls. And then things get really spooked when one girl died, while the other 3 were just a few feet away from her in another part of the house.. So it was left with these 3 friends, and they set out to find out who's behind this game and who's been killing these people.

When they went to the place where the game producer lived, they realized that the game takes place right at this mansion. This was the place of the Countess, and this was her game. And just like the game states: The body of the countess was up at the tower
It was all part of the game... And also... the game will activate by itself even when nobody logs on to play. This game was cursed, and it will not stop any people from stopping to play the game, at all cost.

Well.. in the end... nobody gt killed. The 3 remaining characters were alive as they managed to escape from the mansion and destroyed the body of the countess. Who really know if the game was really cursed and it was really over when they destroyed the body... When the ending of the movie shows the real 'stay alive' video games selling at games shops. With the graphics exactly like the one that the characters played with their lives.

The joy of grams house...
1. Get to spend time with my Grams whom I love alot.
2. Get to spend time with my 3rd aunt(someone I look up to) and her family.
3. Get to go to 'Craving Thoughts' with my cousins for an hr of relaxation!

Speaking of 'Craving Thoughts', we spent another hour there today... and spent 30bucks! We ordered a total of 5 bottles of drinks [3 Raspberry Esprit, 1 Lemon & Lime & Bitters, and 1 bottle of Classic Apple & Passion fruit Fruit Juice] ; and 3 ice cream [1 choco mint, 1 rainbow, & 1 poison berry].

The ambiance there is just so comfortable... it became our routine to visit there once a fortnight. Jun didn't want to go home at about 8pm and wanted to stay longer. If they dun have exams on Monday, I'll surely stay longer, but Bei Lian's order: Be back by 8. I had to follow the order and make sure they do too, since I'm the eldest.

It's Saturday Fun... seriously... it's very fun, even thought it's like for a short while..but overall it was very cool, to spend a time with them and all... ^_^

Despite the rain... WE PLAYED TENNIS!!! Who cares about the rain? It's like drizzling, so it's like "thank you heaven for ceasing your tears" --> From cats and dogs kind of rain to just drizzle.

My arms are sore! I think by the time I know the basic stuffs, my right arm is gonna be stronger and more muscular than my left arm. Hahas!! :D I finally knew how to 'open' ball! Could only catch 1 or 2 balls, barely made across the net..hehs... ^^

Had tons of fun in that 1hr and 15mins... Haven't sweat that much for quite some time now.. my whole back was wet, my arms n legs were wet, sweats can be seen all over my face. The last time I sweat that much was in a badminton game..but that's indoor, this is outdoor. Indoor is more stuffy so sweating that much is alright..but outdoor sweating this much, is alot.

Had to do more push ups to train my arm muscles. And one thing abt me playing tennis is that I was so used to the badminton style of hitting(elbows can be bended a little). Tennis is totally different thing: elbows had to be locked. I haven't 'locked' my elbows since I graduated from NPCC. Lolz! =D

Dad was like, "wanna try table tennis?"

I was like "nah, i dun like table tennis."

He said, "of all the 3 games, table tennis, badminton, tennis, table tennis is the easiest cos the table is small. followed by badminton then the most diffcult is tennis. You and ur sis chose tennis over table tennis... "

Hahs! :D Looking forward to round 2, even my arm is a li sore from all the "bring-arm from back to top then smack down while locking ur elbows"... so it's total arm strength.

Rascal Flatts' song "Home" started playing in my ear... But I ignored it completely and continue sleeping. My alarm couldn't wake me up.

Drip...Drop...Drip...Drop... Early in the morning...

Felt water droplets on my face as I slept. Dragged myself out of bed and looked out the window.

It was raining cats and dogs... @ 9.15am in the morning. It was the rain that woke me up, nt the alarm(Ironic cos norm ppl sleep on rainy days as it's cooling to do so).

Closed the window(not totally) and went back to bed, with my quilt up to my neck...

Then a few minutes later a voice boomed and echoed in my room.. My dad. He was already dressed for Tennis. By I was still sleeping, so was my sis.

That feeling of rain drops on my face sealed one fact: No tennis this morning. Now it's going 11, and it's still hasn't stop raining. =.= Hope the rain will stop at 12.. at least we get an hour of game.........

Rain Rain Go Away,
Come Again Another Day.
Rain Rain Go Away,
Let Us Have A Chance Play.
