Sugar rushhhhhhhh

Last night i woke up at 3, and i couldn't sleep. Maybe its because of the results.

So i stayed awake till 6..

Then behold, 6.21am. The phone vibrates beside my pillow.

Jes says: Jie, look at what you got.

I looked.

OMG its really the text, i hesitated, then i opened it.

Read it twice.

Then, i jumped outta the bed, shrieking happily and told everyone i could tell.

HAHHAHHAHHAHA.

For the record, i got into Ngee Ann, Advertising & Public relations :)

Think, change.

That above, was what i was reading yesterday.

Picked it up by "accident", edi left it in the bag which i happened to use yesterday. So, having nothing to do on the train, i took it out to read.

Mannn! So many things i can quote from this book, so many things left me just reading the sentences over and over again.

"So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half asleep, even when they are busy doing things they think are important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning."

When i read that, my mind started to wonder.. It tells me, "Uh oh! Nat, you're going in the wrong direction, turn back, turn back!"

This was not the only thing. There's so much more.

Maybe it wasn't by chance that i got to read it? Hmm.. God knows. He does.

AND TOMORROW!!!!!!!

30 JAN. The posting results'll be out! Heart's not thumping at all. Not a single bit worried :)

I'll just cross my fingers and whatever there is for me to cross except my eyes.

You figure that out.

For tonight, i'm hitting the books. Reading another one by the same author.

Then i'll be writing out my favourite quotes, lets end with one.

"If you really want it, then you'll make your dream happen."

CNY Day uno.

HELLO :D Today i went visiting relatives. And and and and i got alot of kachings. A whole pile of them, and i can even bathe in it (Okay, i'm over exaggerating, but still.. its alot hehhehe)

Alright, pictures pictures. I'm in purple. I like purple now.

And then... We dragged the (fat) queen dog in!

Then..... We accessorized her with good fortune. I mean, whats a queen without riches?

Now how cute is that? :D

Thanks to my rich dog i'm going to have a prosperous year!

Oh yes.

Advert

Prosperous Cessy is up for rent at only $10,716,819.99!!

(I told you i'd be prosperous... Once you rent her!!!)

*End of advert*

Back to reality, i'm still going visiting tomorrow. Hehehhehhe. And fetch jes from the airport too, she's coming back from indo.

Alright, once again, happy new year! :D

Eve of everything

Yesterday we had our reunion lunch at some restaurant in chinatown. Hmm the food was okay. Not that bad but also not that awesomez.

HEEHEEHEE KAWAII NEH~!

By the way, thats my little cousin ryan ;D

***

Then off we went to Sentosa for some flower fest. (We had extra time to spare before going to church at 5.30)

At first i expected it to be really really flowery and extravagant. But! But! It turned out to be just tons of flowerbeds. Yes its pretty, but i think it could've been better.

And walking around in sentosa in a pretty dress under the hot sun isn't that nice. Its hot. Plus edi's also in heels and she was complaining all the way.

Pitcher plants and a wannabe.

Irene and her sexy eyes.

Tonight we're gonna be having Shabu-shabu at home. We spent like, close to 100 bucks for the beef alone. HAHHAHHA. Its going to be yummy :D

& Oh before i forget, happy chinese new year ya'll :)

Drama crazy

Thanks to one dear dear friend of mine, i'm addicted to jap dramas once again. The storyline? Wealthy daughter of a hotel chain mogul meets poor widowed father of three. Pretty interesting i say. I like-e! Its like a jap version of paris hilton. Hah. But this one's pretty :)

Well, work's starting to become less boring for me. (Thanks to some sudoku, hah, i know)

Now i'm going to continue watching.

Tooodles~

Reflections in the mirror

Okay sometimes, i like to take time out reflecting. Wait, i think i only do that when i'm really really affected by things happening around me, or to me?

Yesterday. Cg. Three Cs. Left me doing some really deep thinking with what jon said.

Honestly, i think i'm a little hesistant to step forward. Maybe its because its totally new, nothing seems predictable already, like it used to be. Nonetheless, i'll still try. Because i'll never know. Because everything's going to turn out okay.

I don't know whats in store for me this year. I know it'll definitely be better than the previous. Somehow i've got this feeling that i'm going to walk through so many deep, dark valleys. But that doesn't mean its bad. It only means i'm gonna learn how to find my way out. Find the light, with His help, He's always with me, this is for sure :)

And at the end of this year, i will be able to say, 2009's the best year. Breakthrough!

So many things i want to change. I'm starting with me.

And i JUST, found out that making everyone happy is hard :(((((

Oh yes, i've been working for 3 days already now. OMG Its boring me to death!1!!!11!! No wonder the pay's good. But i can endure. I'm thinking in terms of opportunity cost. (Hah, econs is drilled into me) If i don't work, i stay at home and slack, but thats not going to bring any moolah in. On the other hand, i work, get bored, i still can earn a decent 1k/month. Soooooooo.. I've to endure.

***

I've also talked to a few, nono, its alot of pj friends. I miss ya'll too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

Seems like they're all getting stressed up. A levels this year. So yeah. & talking to them, i can feel the stress aura streaming out of them too. Ohmygoodness. And i think, if it was me, i think i'd be going beserk already. (By the way, its only the first week of school)

Ya'll do your best k! If you guys need someone to talk to then i'll be here :)

Mmmm, gonna have reunion dinner tomorrow. Yes, pretty early right. I know! And next saturday i'm going to have another one too. Don't ask why. Its just like that for me :/

Fingers crossed*

"Your JAE registration has been submitted successfully."

I have been doing tons of pondering and rearranging of my 11 choices. (My first was fixed)

So there you have it. I've submitted. All i've to do now is wait and cross my fingers and legs and whatever i can cross now. HAHAHHAH.

Oh yes, i've already started working too, with effect today. Did telemarketing. Just loads and loads of calling people up. Piece of cake! & The pay's good too, its $7.50/hour. So far no bad experiences yet. SO FAR!

But its a 9.30-5.30 job on weekdays. So its all gone now, my weekdays. But i think it beats staying at home all day long and just using the computer till i get really bored. At least i'm earning something which i will be able to spend in time to come. WOO i can't wait for payday! (& its only my first day of working, hah)

Alright, now i shall go about randomly surfing the net. And go facebooking. HAHAHA.

G'night ya'll :D

What if?

What if i hadn't withdrawn from PJ?

What if i had school tomorrow?

HAHHAHHAHAHHAHHHA. Thats what IF! But apparently not! I thank God it isn't.

If i had school tomorrow, it would be a total bummer. I'd have to wake up super early, which WAS my good habit. I repeat, WAS. & now with the long holiday break, i've been sleeping really late, waking up equally late, so all my good habits has gone out of the window. *pooooooooof*

I've just went around some classmates' blogs and told them to have fun at school. (Which i know its impossible knowing that the school happens to be PJ) MWAHHAHHAHAH. Very bad, i know. But, i can't help it, its been long since i've gone around mass disturbing people :P

MMkay, today's a pretty good day i say. The weather's good. Gelare waffles after lunch was good, but Church was even better.

I learnt something in a perspective i didn't know. Something that has to do with everyday. Something very very important. Which is honor.

Anyway tomorrow i can already start applying for poly. Like finally, i say! & To all those that are receiving their results tomorrow, good luck! I know your hearts will be palpitating. But relax, ya'll will surely do well ;)

Now i shall go about enjoying the night, like every other night, ciao ciao :D

TOKIDOKI!

Hello hello! Do you see a new layout here?
(Well duh, if you don't, dig your eyeballs out please)

Isn't it pretty? *beams* I like, er no, love it very much! :)

I'm actually done with sourcing out for the courses and found out the cut-off-points already. Now all i've got to do is the even harder part. Its the placement of these courses. One wrong move and i'll end up like last year. Being put in a place i don't like. Sheeeesh. I won't make the same mistake again!

Alright, my half a day was gone due to this layout. I think i can even stare at it the whole day.

Once i'm done with it (Which i might not be) Then i'll put it up on blogskins.com for others to enjoy hehhehheh :D

Okay, i'll be off to stare and admire the layout now, maybe you should too :DD

I decide

Making my first choice was easy. Just like snapping your fingers cause when i first saw it i made up my mind just like that. Mind you, that was like in june last year. So its 6 months dreaming of the same thing already.

Then came the next 11! ELEVEN.

The "what-if-i-can't-get-into-the-previous-choices" or you can say its more of back-up plans.

I already went for NYP, NP and even SP's open houses. All were to just take brochures and more of looking for friends and do some catching up :)

Well actually, i think i'm supposed to make the decisions much faster? Because my choices are limited to Business/Media. Now i've actually narrowed it down to choosing from NP/SP.

And then after that, it seems that my choices are pretty limited.

Oh dear. Its sucha headache?

Actually i think i need not worry too much.

Because i was browsing through my phone on thurs in the middle of the night. Why in the middle of the night i'll explain later. Hah.

& i saw this. In my "notes" page.

"Faith is calling things that are not as though they
were."

Ahh, a revelation! And in good time too. So now i know,
there's absolutely absolute, no way i have reason to worry or doubt.

'Cause i know, i'm already in! :D

So thursday, i was out for NYP's open house right, and i drank coffee. Then we all went out to town to do a little shopping, and chilling out at Starbucks. And i got myself a Latte, Now, that shouldn't be a big deal right?

NO! :(

At night, i was very very wide awake instead O_O So argh. How to describe? I don't know. Just argh! I ended up not sleeping at all. And even calling up someone in the middle of the night (I know, i'm bad.) Well, i got to disturb that someone. So yeah. Then after i-don't-know-how-many-rounds-of-solitare-on-my-hp, i started to feel sleepy. And so i slept at around 6? But got up at 8! My goodness! x_x

I'll never ever drink normal coffee again! Unless its decaf. I've learnt my lesson.

Oh yes, you know, when the birds started chirping at 4 i was so happy that morning's arrived =.= Hahahhah how random, i know.

I also watched the VS fashion show on tv that night. OMG the models they all look so gorgeous! Yes i really really mean gorgeous gorgeous! Hahhahah.

Now back to surfing the poly webbies for my other 11 choices. Boohoo :(

Feeling like felt

For the past few days, i've been armed with needles, thread and lots of felt! :D

Poked myself a few times, thank goodness no bleeding occured. Hah.

Now let me show you the fruits of my labour!

*Drumroll please*

TADAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!


Here's my lil buddy with a new friend ;)


Arm's a lil bit retarded. This is my first try :D


Doesn't this guy remind you of the ever retarded Patrick Starrr, but in green? AHHAAH.


This pink ghostie's here my favourite so far. Its tokidoki inspired ;)

Tonight i'm going to do one more. Hehhehehhehhe. I'll need to improve my skills. Then if i can do really nice ones i can go sell it off. Hahahha.

For now i'm just surfing the net for more inspiration.

Then soon... I'll have one whole collection of plushieees.

KAWAII NEH~! :D

Open houses

CAN SOMEONE ACCOMPANY ME TO THE NP OPEN HOUSE PLEASEEEE?

I'm already going for Nyp's one with Kar & Sh on thursday.

For SP, maybe not :/

O level results are going to be out next week, meaning i can go apply too. So i need to make 12 choices all over again.

The courses i'm choosing are most likely to be dominated by NP's so someone please please text me!

:D

Nine lives

WOOOOO! Hello 2009, i hope you'll be good to me :)

Well, i've had my fair share of ups (and mostly downs) for 2008. So its no surprise i'm looking forward to 2009.

HAAHHAHA, k i've taken pictures of my favourite presents i've got last month :)

Really happy about them all, don't usually receive that much so yeah.

This one above's from ahemahemahem i-don't-know-who! :P I tell you, its very very very very huggable, unlike the person who gave it to me. Aiyooo i tell you, everywhere its fats hanging out! Opps. Did i just leak a secret? Mwahhahhhahahha!

And this lil buddy here, haven't got a name for it. But its cute rightttttt? Joel made it, pretty good sewing skills for a guy! :)

Okay that was just out of total randomness, but mostly its appreciation.

Yes Joel, i still remember you're one of my first friends, from that sec one orientation thingy. Riha was on my right, the last in line. And you were on my left, just slightly taller than me. I think they were getting us to line up according to height or something. HAHAHAH. Oh well, i'm happy that i still get to keep in touch :)

Oh yarr.. That lil guy up there has made me want to make little friends for him too. So edi and i went to buy lots of felt yesterday. She's made one bunny already. Nicely sewn. I'm going to try it on monday too, then i'll show ya'll :D

After that i'm going to sew lots and lots of it and give it away. Yes, give it to my special friend too ;)

Well, y'knw what? My mum's pretty hooked on that Channel 8 show. That Little Nyonya one. OMG man. Even i can't believe it. I mean, she's not usually attached to watching teevee. But once i started watching it on youtube to catch up, she wanted to watch too.

So.. When i went away for a chalet on 31 dec, she told me she stayed up the whole day all the way till 3am just to watch the bulk of it. W.O.W. Even i'm not THAT hooked. Lol.

Well, that show's taught me quite alot, it got me thinking.

Yesterday we went to catch a movie too, mum, edi& i at Plaza sing. Very impromptu, at first mum wanted to watch The Dutchess but its M18 so yarr... We had to settle for another one. So we got Seven Pounds.

And you know what's the irritating thing? OMG its like before the movie started they were showing us a full half an hour of adverts!!!! Very very irritating. Maybe they lost the movie or something thats why.

Anyway, its quite an emotional show. Not bad i say. But, for the first half of the show i couldn't grasp the gist of it so i got pretty bored. Until the next half when the plot's starting to reveal itself. Its that kind of a show that would want you to figure the story out itself. The ending's very sad though, i almost cried. Almost. Pity that i couldn't connect to what Will smith is actually thinking in the show.

***

Tonight i'm going to accompany pops for an annual gathering at his friend's place. At first only he's going alone. I think its sad for him to go alone so i'm coming along too :)

Now i'm going to continue catching up with my so many shows.

Toodles~
