Sunday, May 1, 2005 My grandmother passed away this morning, after being hospitalised since Monday. The wake is this evening. I just need some time to get back to my normal self. ... she wrote at 02:08 p.m.Saturday, April 23, 2005 Seiyu was having a sale on Japanese clothes brands~ so I bought myself a blouse and a flouncy skirt. Japanese designers are so amazing. I don't know what the cut of the blouse is - a trade-off between a boat neck and a plunging one, but the fit is perfect, so it PWNZ ALL. Any, it's very sweet, and koi helped me to put it together. With any luck I'll be wearing it to the SIFF show. =3 Ahaaha... the inner clotheshorse is unleased. >DDD Saw really nice black ballerina shoes at silverline (sp?) but they ran out of size 8 and 9. T.T RAGE! I though petite Singapore girls had dainty, lotus feet and only exhausted the size 6 and 7s but NO~~~ =( I really liked them too. Aww. Finished Good Omens, and I want Crowley/Azraphiale slash NOW. In fact, I remember seeing links to some a long time ago, but it never occured to me to bookmark them. Piffle. ... she wrote at 11:29 p.m.Tuesday, April 19, 2005 Aegis! I can't comment on your blog - seems likethe code only allows for one comment per entry. o.O?? Anyway, I'm not going for either one of the "Freshman Orientation Camps" (the Ngee Ann Poly-wide one, and the one for School of Life Science and Chemical Technology). The circulars are so confusing. Anyway, I heard they are residential camps, so, ugh, I'll pass. I will be going on the 12th of May though, so I'll definetely see you there. Btw! Chun Yong is in Biotech as well. I met him on Monday. XD [/shoutout] Work is still the same, except we're hitting a busy period and everyone's a bit strung out over deadlines. I'll be resigning either end of this month, or the first week of May. Labour Day pay is enough to make me reconsider scooting off early - but the promise of a longer holiday is so tempting! I still need to work on Cosfest costume, too. =( Decisions, decisions. Thinking of joining my collegues in Warcraft III, but I suck tremedously at these tactical games. Will stick to Dynasty Warriors 4 (or 5 - International) for the time being. Bought Good Omens, to cheer myself up after the sucky induction day. Suffered through boring speeches, played lame icebreakers, bought my lab coat and left early when I met Chun Yong, skipping the final lecture (for the orientation camp). I don't think anyone missed me. Hur. Half-way through the book - it is very good. I still prefer Pratchett immensely over Gaiman. I find the latter's style too dramatic and ... intangible. It's like watching him try to make up for pictures with words - and ultimately it falls flat. He does graphic novels far better. ... she wrote at 09:53 p.m.Sunday, April 17, 2005 I watched Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence, and it blew my mind. Ate it up, and spat the little, twitching bits all over my room. I need to watch the first part, now, obviously. Drew three pages of 'Bri's drabble-turned-comic, realised how bad I am at panelling. Read Japanese fashion magazines. Felt ashamed on behalf of the female population of Singapore. Isn't there more to one's wardrobe than jeans and t-shirts/tank tops? It's not like we're lacking in stores that sell, well, other things. I think most girls are either too scared to experiment or just plain lazy - that's why the majority on the streets look like they've walked out of Bossini advertisments. And that's why, when a girl shows some leg in nice skirt, she gets hit on ten ways and lives in constant fear of stairs, and some loser aiming his camera phone upskirt and posting it on sggirls.com. How annoying. On that note: Lecherous fucktards who need to get a life. Go, watch some AV videos, get laid, for crying out loud. Oh wait, I forgot, you're too bloody plebian to find a girlfriend. =P Sucks to be you then. Excuse the mild outburst. Anyway, where was I? Ah yes. Poly induction day tomorrow. I hope it's quick and painless. Lectures are fine, just no games, please. I can't wait to get my laboratory coat. >3 I hope I see Aegis there tomorrow. Aegis! If you're reading this - call me~ ... she wrote at 10:03 p.m.Saturday, April 9, 2005 Enrollment package arrived this week - thus no random civil service buildings will topple anytime soon due to rampaging robots. =.= I'm so glad to be accepted into poly. When the forms arrived, everything finally seemed, well, /real/. You couldn't pay me enough to go back to ACJC. Whatever. I hope whichever Google-happy person who keeps arriving at my blog by typing "acjc choir" doesn't suffer cardic arrest by reading that. I get too many hits for weird things. Watching Gundam Seed 49 makes me awfully squishy. I think Natarle's English voice actress did a good job at the end. Azrael, that big, blue Going to watch Porcelain later with Dee and company. =3 Smashing. Now I just need to pickout something to wear. Eh. ... she wrote at 01:15 p.m.Monday, April 4, 2005 Vaguely worried because OMFG where is my poly enrollment package?! O.O; Going to scream if MOE gives my place to another student if I do not claim it in time. I'll fly a bloody Zaku to their headquarters and stomp the building to bits. BITS, I TELL YOU. *shakes fist impotently* Random art-doodle discovery of the day: girls with katanas are so hot. XD Experimenting with watercolours - a promising new medium. Second attempt resulted in a very winsome Chikane-chan than I might make into a postcard. Perhaps I'll draw one of Himeko and make it a set. X3 ... she wrote at 09:36 p.m.Friday, April 1, 2005 A^3 Illustrations has a new look! Please go visit! O.O;; Drew, and coloured and coloured myself silly this week. I'm so drained. Fingers still trembling as bad as ever. I hold up my hand and keep the fingers pressed together - I look like a sixty year old woman with coffee-induced heart palpitations. How depressing. I guess that's the price you pay for your craft. Need to sleep soon, dental early tomorrow. *thud* ... she wrote at 11:17 p.m.Monday, March 28, 2005 Stolen from Cherry and Kazu: Instructions: 1) Cut and paste this meme onto your blog. 2) Bold whatever is true of you.

Good stuff, yo. ... she wrote at 10:13 p.m.Saturday, March 26, 2005 Finished watching the last three episodes of Kannazuki no Miko. The damn show made me cry and cry buckets. Piffle. *flops over* Oh gawd, these dramas kill me. ... she wrote at 03:02 p.m.Friday, March 18, 2005 Work today was super slack - finished our project early and lazed around from 3.30pm to 5.30pm. *bliss* My office boys are all gay. The end. Painted my nails today, in Bourjois "Rayon Aqua". It's green-blue-tinged mother-of-pearl. Very pretty. I like Bourjois muchly now. Going to the library tomorrow, and buying cloth! X3 ... she wrote at 10:30 p.m.Sunday, March 13, 2005 Things I want: = a haircut= violet-brown highlights = white ankle-boots = Cloud Atlas, by David Mitchell = a gun. so I can shoot myself for having an EQ of zero I don't particularly care if my mother doesn't want me to get a haircut right away ("But your hair's fine!" Hell no, it isn't. My last cut was in June 04), or highlights done. I'm pissing tired of her saying one thing, and insisting another later. If she said I could get my hair dyed in December, I can very well get it done now. I hope I look like an absolute and complete gangster when it's done, so I give all her friends heart attacks. I can't wait for my paycheck so I can blow it on new clothes and books. Having money in my bank account (Edusave Scholarship) makes me understand what they mean by "material pleasures". I love new things. So shiny. Meeh. One can dream. At least I don't have to iron clothes for tomorrow. Work. Ah, fuck it. Same old, in and out. It's better than rotting at home. That's what I'm telling myself. No, I don't know why I'm so bitter today. Right now, I couldn't care if a Closer came out of my closet and gave me a huge bear hug. That's right. ... she wrote at 08:48 p.m.Sunday, March 13, 2005 I have no life nowadays, but it's okay, since I didn't have much of one in JC either. At least now I'm being paid for my time. Hurhur. Bought Tori Amos' "The Beekeeper". A bit disappointed at her lack of typical brain-bending lyrics and vocal histronics initially, but I suppose I understand, now that she's got a kid and all, she's moved onto another phase of her life. More subdued, more mellow and reflective. Plus she dueted with Damien Rice on one of the tracks, so it's all good. <3 Nothing much to write, except that I'm exhausted. Oh yeah, and work is very fulfiling. I get paid for wasting printer ink. It's da bomb. Going back to Virginia Woolf now. Ta. Cherry: It's "God" by Tori Amos. Good stuff. ... she wrote at 03:05 p.m.Tuesday, March 1, 2005 god sometimes you just don't come through This was my personal anthem for the past two months. Crazy stuff happening everyday. Going to a mission school didn't reignite my faith, it just made me feel more alienated. Before all my Christian readers pounce on me, and stake me, let me just say that I hardly make opinionated statements in this space - let me say my piece without being evangelised, please. From now onwards, I'll just declare myself agnostic, and no one will get hurt. I'm sad-glad to be out of JC. Mostly glad. All my life, just a shadow passing through. Just a shadow ghosting over your marble floors, your shiny dreams, your beautiful children wrapped up in their ribbon-tied war literature and oratorical ambitions, Ivy League futures lined up on bookshelves, pretty maids all in a row. I wasn't meant for this place, obviously. I'm just a little delinquent, you see. To all the friends I've made, and all the people who believe they've accepted me over the PAE period, if you are reading this and it discomforts you, then, well, now you know where I'm coming from. Off to find work, make myself useful, save to pay off some tuition fees. So long, and thanks for all the fish. Thursday, February 17, 2005 This place is er, half-dead. *nudges blog with foot* o_O; Anyway! Mauldin ramblings!! Hello all! WARGH! Slowly getting adjusted to ACJC - choir, lectures, essay writing, whatnot. In the course of two months, have managed to compile more physical injuries than I have in two years. =.=;;; Classmates are nice, choir-mates are just as nice too. Being in alto is so fun. Our SL is totally big on being "manly altos" - eating a lot, holding doors for guys, disdaining pink and purple and generally shaming males to no end. And she's a, well, pretty feminine-looking person. Much hilarity. XD Arts is pretty slack, but our assignments are huge and take forever to draft and finalize. Poems, essays, analysis, self-critique. Eek. I acutely realise how socially inept I am, floundering in this sea of bright, beautiful people. Ack. Seems like I can never get the right inflections into my voice or say things "normally". Blame it on shifting registers all the time to talk to different people in the past. Now I'm a mish-mash of otaku-Japanese, "flowery" dialect and pseudo-English, Wilde-esque nonsense. Someone, please, shoot me. If anything, my writing is getting slightly better - less second-guessing expressions and phrases. I really am all rusty and out of sorts. I speak Singlish one sentence and proper grammar the next. I bet my classmates think I'm out of it. Oh well. *sigh* Results are coming out next week, I hear. I have reoccuring nightmares of getting 20 pts AND OMG BELL CURVES. *bawls* They HAUNT ME. I really hate my secondary school teachers sometimes for filling my head with those annoying images. T^T Meeting Aoi to pass him the Gayer Than Thou ZAFT Uniform tomorrow. Aoi! If you are reading this - you'd better remember to meet me! XD And yes, all you curious people out there, Kazu-kun is treating me extremely well. =3 Okay, better sleep now. I have an Econs test tomorrow and I've only skimmed through the lecture notes. Haven't even touched the tutorials yet. *dies* Oyasumi nasai minna-san~ ... she wrote at 10:31 p.m.Friday, February 4, 2005 I busted my ankle during PE. Tore a tendon - aren't I the best? XD;; Can't go out with minna-san. Arrrrgggh~ *headdesk* *headdesk* WHY GOD WHY?! *throws a hissy fit* I suspect my ankle never healed fully after Orientation Camp and physical conditioning just made it work up again. Bleh. Btw, I got my section of the art collective up. Go see: 3 o'clock teatime *hobbles off to take meds* ... she wrote at 09:33 p.m.Sunday, January 23, 2005 ACJC = stress. Chinese = my greatest failure. PE = boot camp. I miss all my friends - Cherry, Aoi, PH, Kyo... MINNA~SAN~ You guys better organize that outing soon! I'm going mad in here. >.<; Really want to meet up with you guys again. I need to do lots of "bitching" at the fellowship meeting too. LOL. Cherry! Can you get the wig to work yet? o.O; Try asking your brother to hold it for you, and style it yourself before putting it on? ... she wrote at 07:09 p.m.Thursday, January 13, 2005 I am typing this from the ACJC library, and quite positively freezing to death (even with my jacket on). JC life is okay, I guess. Just that my mother went all crazy and changed the password on my home computer last week (which is why I've been MIA all this time on MSN heheh.) Most days I'm too tired to use the computer when I get back home anyway. I just want to stone, and sleep, sleep through dinner and wake up the next morning. Bleh. Cosfesta costume still 0% done. Wargh. Have everything planned out - just need to find some time to get down to Chinatown to buy materials. -_o Really cold~ can hardly move my fingers. Gomen ne for not updating as often nowadays. Got to go get my Maths and Lit tutorials to work on now. ;_; *totters off stiffly* ... she wrote at 10:42 a.m. |
