The funny thing was, I was given a “top secret mission” by the 3 of them and I had to arrive earlier for briefing! Apparently I was a spy in my group and I had to eliminate everyone else who is not a spy!

I HAD A GREAT CHANCE AT ELIMINATING ZHENQIN cos I was alone with him searching for clues at Hort Park! But I wanted to be nice and let him play for a while more before I kill him!

END UP I GOT KILLED FIRST COS MY GROUPMATES FOUND A CLUE THAT CAN GET ME KILLED. I was a big blur sotong and told Sze Fan to text Shirlynn the answer to the clue (which was my name). I should have went along with them and kept the clue myself cos they all thought they were only supposed to answer the clue at the end of the game!! URGH.

But hehe, it was still lots of  fun (in the sun, literally). The people who got ‘killed’ went back to our ‘prison’ and took photos!

We had this cool idea of taking photos with people who gradually join us in the prison but we failed lah LOL.

Noob Xin Mun was first~

Then Wei Sheng! LOL.

THEN ME. KNS.

Germaine! She totally lied down on a muddy spot to protect her nametag please. *applauds*

Then Zhen Qin! But he got revived halfway T.T

Yah lah, then we stopped taking photos already HAHA.

I stopped liking to take photos with my camera that much after realising how lousy it is compared to the rest. Shall get a new camera soon! Maybe before my HK trip with Xin Mun and Gayle in July (if it happens).

Yay favourite people <3

More photos with Shirlynn! Shall wait for her to upload the rest on facebook~

On a sad note, this is probably the last outing my Year 4 class would have before the guys enlist D:

But on a happier note! I know this would not be the last outing 4C would have! Such a fun and gleeful class; I’m so glad most of us still bother to keep in touch ^^

*****

Sian I think I’m starting to look old in my photos.

I mean, yes I’m turning 19 this year… But you know I’m actually secretly happy that people still believe I’m 16! And I’m fearing the idea of aging, especially after working at the hospital.

Yes, I think I need go for botox soon. Maybe when I’m 25.

Shiok.

Anyway since I’m in a good mood today, I’m gonna show y’all my CNY shopping haul! Bought so many things this year for CNY cos I’ve been earning money ^^ Nothing expensive or branded though – I’m still a rather thrifty person!

2 bags, 2 printed knitted dress, 2 pairs of leggings, 2 owl necklaces, a belt, a lace flare skirt, a red shirtdress, a pair of acid-washed high waist shorts, a tribal print bandage skirt, a grey knit top, a mustard plain tee, a tribal prints top and a plain white long tank!

I’m rather into prints nowadays but I still lust after basic plain clothing because I like layering my clothes at times.

Was comtemplating if I should get my shoes from Mitju but decided not to after trying a few pairs cos they don’t look good on me! D:

So I went to Far East Plaza’s Mimosa to settle my shoes I didn’t manage to get my brown moccasins but the khaki ones look great as well! AND I decided to buy the pink pair of covered shoes cos… Well they really look very nice to me. I have a pair of similar brown shoes which I stopped wearing cos they scarred my ankles ): Hopefully this pair is wearer-friendly.

I’m gonna visit FEP again after I get my next pay cos my beloved shopping partner Winnie and I saw so many great items on sale last Saturday!! We’ve decided to ditch our usual haunt (Bugis Village) for cheap clothes cos we only get squashed by big people over there (yes we’re both short and small sized). Clothes at FEP ain’t exactly cheap, but I feel that they are much more worth the price than retail shops such as Cotton On or F21.

Okay I admit I do have clothes from there but I make sure they’re worth the price I’m paying for before I buy them! Like I definitely won’t buy anything more than $20 from Cotton On. As for F21, it depends on the quality. I’ve been seeing too many clothes with lousy quality material at F21 :S

Anyway I’ve received great service at FEP’s Mimosa yesterday night while shopping for shoes. The shopkeeper was honest enough to let me know that there was a defect on the pair of pink shoes. BUT I SWEAR IT WAS JUST A TEENY WEENY PEELING OFF OF THE FAUX LEATHER. I didn’t even notice!! I told her to give me a discount and she gave me a 10% discount straight woohoooo.

*****

Hope you guys have an awesome reunion dinner tonight with your loved ones!

Now it’s damn weird because my monitor is so wide which is different from my Toshiba lappie :/ Plus using this desktop means a lack of privacy cos it’s situated in my living room right now!

Whatever, I still like typing with a big keyboard

Shall take the rest of the night to revamp my desktop! Needa delete so many programs and stuff.

Oh, I discovered many interesting old photos that’s saved in this computer HAHAHAHAHA, shall comtemplate posting them up hiak hiak.

*****

Tomorrow’s a Saturday then it’d be Chinese New Year’s Eve already! YAY.

Can’t wait to meet Liqin and Chunwei tomorrow. Ages since I last saw them!

It’d be much better if you sincerely wanted to catch up with an old friend!

Owells.

Maybe you were but I didn’t like the way you put across what you really wanted to say.

Hopefully the next time I talk to you (if we ever talk again) will not be like this.

All the best with whatever you’re doing anyway.

Now I’m down with a sore throat and cough and my whole body is aching like mad. Feeling so lethargic that I slept most of my day away.

Sigh…

*****

Just ordered my second batch of clothes from Gmarket in the afternoon! Yesterday I received my parcel for my first batch of clothes. The material of the clothes were definitely good and comfortable for the prices I’m paying (probably even better than those I saw at F21 the other day, where many tops are sold at $45). In fact I was really pleasantly surprised that the material was pretty good! I expected sheer, lousy material for a top that costs $11.

Not that I minded anyway, for the price.

Yeah I’m a cheapo. I can probably be Budget Barbie No.2. Qiuqiu inspires me a lot honestly.

Initially I thought I’d be willing to spend more on clothes I like after I started working. But the funny thing is, it is because of the sole fact that I started working that makes it even harder for me to part with my money. I don’t see why I should pay a lot of money for clothing since I always buy new ones! And though it’s true that some cheap clothes make you look cheapo, or not posh/glam for that matter, it all goes down to how you dress them up!

I never believed that I’ll need to wear expensive clothes for me to look good.

But of course lah, I’m willing to spend more on shoes and bags because I want those that can last. Can you imagine one buying a pair of cheapo shoes/bag that spoils halfway while you’re out at town?! Major fail please.

*****

Alright think my blog is getting boring with all these words and no pictures. Will probably take a few shots of my haul from gmarket once the second batch of clothes arrive. I predict they will be better than the first batch cos I paid more for them! Still rather cheap though LOL.

Hope my sore throat/body ache heals by tomorrow morning! But I think I’d have to wear a mask at work tomorrow. And scare all the patients away.

The subconsious effect of being in RV for 6 years.

I only realised this after working for the past 2 weeks. Although I still get stuck at trying to think of some words at times :/ I’ve to say my other fellow temp staff colleagues command of mandarin is much better though.

So have any of my other RV friends felt this ‘subsciously-actually-i’m effectively-bilingual’ effect?

Ate so much bbq food yesterday – and I didn’t even wait for it to be served on the table or anything; I took it straight from the pit! Like what Zhen Qin said, “Joycelin likes it hot.”

Today morning I woke up feeling like a zombie. Partly cos I slept late and woke up at 2.15am cos my fan was so super noisy. I felt nauseous while brushing my teeth and I had stomach discomfort. Like the bloated feeling. Just that it’s bloated with gas!

I mean, this is not the first time my stomach is bloated with gas. It happens ALL the time when I eat alot, which is very often, and I’m so used to it. But today it was especially uncomfortable for me today, couldn’t even take breakfast!

Sigh I took some time to decide if I should go for work because the opportunity cost is so high! Lose a day’s pay + need fork out money for my doctor’s consultation fee. SOMEMORE I BOUGHT SO MANY BODY CARE PRODCUTS FROM THE PHARMACY D:  I’m sucha sucker for bodycare/skincare products that I’m willing to spend lots of money on them. Probably more than clothes, since they’re supposed to be applied on my face *utmost importance*

But very sad ah, my face still plagued with blackheads,whiteheads and large pores D: Although my pimples have healed quite alot since…puberty started.

*****

Shall use today to recharge and probably spring clean my room!

Then watch American Horror Story! I watched the first episode for free on Mio and it was nice in a freaky way. Everybody and everything inside is weird and sick. But I’m still attracted to it. Ryan Murphy never fails to deliver.

Now I don’t have to be bound to the same spot on my desk in my room all the time!

I know I know, everyone already has wireless right? I just never had the chance to convert it, or rather, have been too lazy to.

And you know what’s the best part? I’ve got free Mio TV for 2 years ^^ All my HK dramas HERE I COMEEEEEEEEEE!

*****

Anyway I’m feeling especially lethargic these few days cos of work. Haven’t been doing things I like to do (?). Maybe I should say that I cannot find any joy in the things I’m tasked to do. Had been doing admin for the past few days, to help my assistant supervisor with her work! It’s sort of a cheap thrill cos I get to sit down and relax unlike my other friends, but then I still like to interact with people y’know? D:

But this week I felt so out of place at the self-registration counter and I kept making mistakes. And I’m so sick of making mistakes. But this creates a never-ending cycle. You know, sick of making mistakes –> sian –> make more mistakes –> sick of making mistakes again.

Never easy money in the world. Now I know why people always say they wished money fell from the sky.

I wish too.

Sigh.. WHEN IS MY PAY COMING IN?! I hope I faxed my timesheet correctly.

I’m such a worrywart as usal.

Probably because of all the studying and examinations. My life seemed so dull this year D:

But let me just give thanks to people who have made a change in my life this year because that’s very important.

1. A big thank you to my teachers who taught me this year. I can’t say I improved drastically but I did show some mild improvements in my results for the first three terms. I’ve got really great teachers this year and I hope my results will not disappoint them. I’ll miss how school teachers are so willing and patient to guide us along. After I started working, I realised I don’t get the same treatment outside from my coworkers. Not that they’re bad, but just that sometimes things are not spelled out so clearly for you and it’s up to you to explore and make mistakes. And if you do? People are less forgiving as well. #workblues

2. Thanks to my school because I finally graduated this year! Okay it doesn’t really make sense, but just wanna thank RV for my education for the past 6 years. It may not be the best school around, and I’ve heard complaints from my peers; but did anyone realise EVERYONE has something bad to say about their schools?? I hope people grow up and see that – it’s not just our school that sucks cos people will complain everywhere they go. See, that’s the thing about Singaporeans – we complain about everything and our complaining nature starts from young.

3. Huge thank you to all my friends, especially those closer friends (you guys know who you are) who’ve always been there for me, listening to me rant/complain/talk about life. You guys and girls have helped me through emotionally and psychologically and I’m glad you all are there. I sincerely hope 10 years down the road when we meet we’ll still have endless topics to talk about

4. I want to thank my bf and his family for being so accepting, supportive and loving! Even tho at times he’s really an ass but things are always good after he makes up for his mistakes. I think it’s true that they say people become dumb when they’re in love because I think I’d never be so forgiving in the past. Owells. It’s a happy kind of dumbness though.

5. Lastly I want to thank my family. There’s some sort of unspoken love among us which I don’t quite exactly know how to put it. My mum and I argue so much and I hate it so much when she nags at me. Having said that I’m still very thankful for her because at least there is still someone who notices me and actually bother to nag at me to make me become a nicer person. My family has also been my financial support and I know it’s hard raising a child.  I hope very soon I’ll be able to be their financial support instead because it pains me to see them still working so hard at this age. The last thing I want is for their health to be compromised.

Alright thi is just a simple give-thanks post
