Time : 2:35 AM Title : Yesterday Once More When I was young I'd listen to the radio Waitin' for my favorite songs When they played I'd sing along It made me smile Those were such happy times And not so long ago How I wondered where they'd gone But they're back again Just like a long lost friend All the songs I loved so well Every Sha-la-la-la Every Wo-o-wo-o Still shines Every shing-a-ling-a-ling That they're startin' to sing's So fine When they get to the part Where he's breakin' her heart It can really make me cry Just like before It's yesterday once more Lookin' back on how it was In years gone by And the good times that I had Makes today seem rather sad So much has changed It was songs of love that I would sing to then And I'd memorize each word Those old melodies Still sound so good to me As they melt the years away Every Sha-la-la-la Every Wo-o-wo-o Still shines Every shing-a-ling-a-ling That they're startin' to sing's So fine All my best memories Come back clearly to me Some can even make me cry Just like before It's yesterday once more You are the very reason why I do not want to leave and why I'm leaving.

Time : 12:30 PM Title : Where's my moon-catcher? "O, swear not by the moon, the fickle moon, the inconstant moon, that monthly changes in her circle orb, Lest that thy love prove likewise variable." I always feel that it really takes a lot for me to snap. I've always been very nice, tolerant and easy-going - At least this is what I think it is. I've spent all my time searching for that someone and falling head over heels in love with the true romantic gentleman. Someone who treats me like a lady, who opens doors for me, who sees me home when he stays at Bedok (in a cab at 3am), who doesn't swear in front of me..But I've always had a taste for the extraordinary - people who are not so popular, well-liked, accepted. I root for the underdog and read between the subtitles. Once bitten, twice shy - why haven't I learnt? What am I trying to prove? For everything you are not, that's why I'm running away.

Time : 12:00 AM Title : Of Love, Fun and Joy - Here it comes again! This is an entry of erm Love, Fun and Joy. So it's going to be a looooooooong entry and a happyhappy one too! Donut Factory! Some weeks ago, my verynice sister decided to queue up for an hour at Suntec for the donuts. Think it was $11 for 12 assorted flavours! Not too sure about the price!  And as usual, we did the sharing of donuts so that everyone could try out more flavours without eating too much of everything! I ate a total of 8 flavours! I like the Kaya White Chocolate and the Blueberry Glazed!  Also like the Hazelnut Milk Chocolate! Didn't really think the Double Chocolate (Coated white chocolate with dark chocolate filling) is that fantastic when reviews said it's good. Probably 'cos I didn't eat it on the very day it was bought.Munchy Donut! Following the donut craze in my family, my mum was shopping at Causeway Point with her friend and spotted Munchy Donuts (located at Basement Cold Storage). So she just had to get some too! She queued up for half an hour. I'm not a fan of donuts, but they tasted pretty good, comparably to the Donut Factory!
12 assorted flavours for $12!  I like the Oreo (top RHS) as well as the White Chocolate with Mocha filling (bottom LHS)! The dark chocolate one (above the White Chocolate) is not bad too!
 Some Fridays ago, I met Gillian for dinner at IKEA for its Fish n Chips. My first time trying it and hmm, it tasted not bad. We proceeded to walk around in IKEA. I ended up wearing Gil's heels and she wearing my flats! Why? 'Cos someone clumsily kicked the side of the trolley just within minutes of pushing it and cut her right tiny toe! It was seriously quite bad - it was bleeding! So the evernice me offered to exchange footwear with her and also provided my one and only plaster left in my wallet so that she could walk more comfortably and to also not ruin our shopping day! Hee..And well, her feet size was slightly bigger than mine but luckily her shoes came with adjustable straps at the back so I could wear them! For the rest of the night, I was parading in heels which were slightly large for me but I thought they looked equally good on me as on her and matched my outfit! Haha..At least that was what Gil said but maybe 'cos she just wanted me to continue wearing her heels! =P Haha..Looking forward to seeing you this Friday! Letter(s) from Dap!  It reads: BEST FRIENDS FOREVERA very sweet and nice surprise that came all the way from the USA Grand Canyon! Hee..Yeah, you're right - everywhere is treacherous, but at least I have you too. Come back quick!
Finally filed my photos neatly into an album after leaving them lying on my table for a couple of months. Developed them a couple of months ago. Wanted to do a scrapbook-kinda album but decided not to as I had more than 300 photos! Random photos of the 3 of us - May, Gil and I! I love how it looks!  Me and Shir! They are so pretty when placed together!  Jia Min, Shir and I at Sentosa! The 3 of us again at Starbucks! Sometime last year..  Me and Dap! We haven't been taking enough to fill a page up!  Gil and I!  My FYP Mates - Peiyu, Joanna and I!
First up, I met up with Peiyu on Tuesday for dinner at PS Ajisen to satisfy my ramen craving! The last time I saw her was during Commencement which was 14th July. Hee. After which we walked around town to look for Long John Silver's 'cos she needed to buy it for her brother. The only LJS outlets I know of in town would be that of Cine and Lido. So we ended up at Lido. Been some time since I stepped into Lido. Was telling Peiyu about the snake queues that used to appear in Lido on weekends. I wonder whether is it still the same for now with the arrival of new theatres like Cathay? Met Carolyn on Friday for dinner at Bugis but not before rushing to West Mall Post Office to send out my letter for my Number 1! Hope it gets to you in time! Caro and I had a quick dinner at Mos Burger as she wanted "sinful fast food". Walked around and we ended up sitting at Starbucks. I had the Raspberry Blackcurrant Tea Frap and it tasted better than the other time. Somehow that night felt just like the good old days in J1. We Tea at the Royal Copenhagen with Shireen! Came Saturday, I met up with Shireen for a little tea session at Taka's Royal Copenhagen. Been some time since I saw her - was it during Jia Min's CNY gathering? Oh no, we met up once at HV's Essential Brew in June! Updated each other with the happenings of our lives and what the future had in hold for each of us too. It always feels good talking to Shir!  Pretty Menu in Baby Pink!  Look at this alcoholic drink - Danish Akvavit ($8.50)! I was conned by Shir to order this! She told me that it wasn't that strong as she had tried it before so I happily went to order it 'cos I wanted to try something different. In fact, I've been craving that sour alcoholic drink with sugar added on the rim of the glass from Equinox! The drink came in a shot glass and it turned out to be nothing mild and tasted strangely familiar to Dome. Haha..  The nice little exquisite china set - one to hold the receipt and the other for the sugar.
And so, I texted Gil and here's how it goes: Dear!! I bought donuts from CWP! Was thinking whether you'd like some - not a lot though, bought 6! I'll be in town so if you happen to be around there, I can pass them to you or anywhere nearby that's convenient! Good food should be shared yeah? If you're wondering about my family, they've tried the donuts! You think about it and let me know k? And don't worry about potter, pass it to me when we meet up again! Have a fun day and hope to see you soon! And her reply was: Dear! It's been such a long time since I've received such an exuberant sms from you! So... Am I perpetually unhappy?! Haha.. I met Gil at Aljunied to pass her the remaining 4 donuts. She gave me 9 char siew paus - for me and my family! Haha..her mum was amused 'cos it seems like we were exchanging food! And yes dear, my family likes the paus! And you know what? I thought it would be disappointing not meeting you this week to perfect my happy week. Thus upon meeting you, even for that mere few minutes, kind of completed my perfect week! Wouldn't ask for any more! Fireworks with My Darling! Met MyPrettyDarling after that to catch the fireworks display at marina! It was really packed but at least the weather was good enough to cool everyone down. Hmmm, coincidentally, we had the KOTM just before the fireworks started! =P I was thinking about the question - why are we together - and I think I've finally found my answer. I hope you've your answer to it too. Nights my darling. And what's your answer? You really want to know? Or is it better not to? The way you say like it's a bad thing. But I think I'll like to know ba. Nothing bad. Just..Very simple and maybe cliche and you might laugh..But well..I love you that's why we're together. As simple as that. I think it's the thing that's holding me on to this relationship. Might have lost this faith some time back but found it tonight and I'm really glad I did.
The week ended with of course the Family Day! We wanted to try the new Cheesy Bites Fondue from PizzaHut so we ordered the Family Feast.  The Advertisement from PizzaHut Here it comes!  The Cheesy Bites! Forgotten to take a pic of the cheese fondue! The fondue comes in a plastic container. I prefer the Jia Min's cheese fondue..  Super Hawaiian Supreme Pizza!

Time : 3:10 AM Title : Do you know? My shoe bit the side of my right heel today.
Do you know? No. I've never been in such a situation before. Why is there always sadness, sadness and more sadness?
Date : Thursday, August 09, 2007
Time : 4:39 AM Title : Hello, anyone there? I'm quitting. For now. Be patient and wait for me to speak. You just can't. Someone? To smell the flowers, look at the stars and watch the rain with me. That's all I really need.

Time : 4:00 AM Title : Untitled. It's 4am and I am right here. That's how pathetic.
Oh, Happy National Day, everyone. I'm wearing my red tee.
Date : Sunday, August 05, 2007
Time : 7:38 PM Title : Finally.. We met up on Friday, after several failed attempts to do so - Me, May and Gillian. Oh, not to mention the changing of the meeting location on the day itself, from Vivo to City hall and finally we settled on Orchard. So fickle we were. Carolyn joined us for dinner too, as well as a little catching up session and well, shopping. Was it pretty obvious that we wanted Sushi Tei? Haha..Perhaps. But dinner was bad for me, and so for Caro too, 'cos of the rawness in the egg used for our orders. Imagine we could see the colourless gooey part of the egg white? I tried to hide it by pushing it further down my bowl, thinking that my appetite would be improved if I didn't see it while eating. What a feeble attempt I must say. Haha..Sushi Tei disappointed me for once. It was nice meeting up - but well, too short a time perhaps. Not enough for quality shopping. We will meet up soon for the late night shopping yeah? Oh oh, I finally realised how sensitive I am to caffeine. A mild cup of bubble tea - my fav. Peppermint Milk Tea - is enough to make me sleepless the entire night. I finally slept at 6am and it was a very restless sleep. Now I have to avoid tea I guess, to sleep better. You know I can't remember when was the last time I have had a straight 6 hours uninterrupted sleep? Weariness slowly crept in today. Hmm, I felt happy knowing that though. I slept at 5am last night and woke up at 10 am. Ate and went back to sleep soon after for 2 hours and woke up feeling that I have slept enough for the day. Ate (yes again) and well..I felt sleepy and slept again. Haha..You know how much I crave to be tired? Sounds a little weird but for someone who can't sleep well..I guess it is normal to think like that. I have been having really weird dreams. Dreams that are really silly, unrealistic and well, some are sad. Today's one was weird. Having a meal with someone's family? And the strangest part of the dream was that I could remember it so clearly. Oh well, if it's true that your dreams are a reflection of your thoughts and troubles, I wish for this trouble of mine to go away, to get out of my mind. Maybe all the while I have been living in denial, telling myself that it just doesn't matter anymore, while at the same time it has been subconsciously playing in my mind. And if he doesn't remember me, if he doesn't remember what we are I'll remember for us both. The quote above contradicts what I have been saying anyway. Am I supposed to be forever haunted by the spirits of the past? If only there is some swift surgery procedure that is able to erase all the ugly memories and mistakes and leave only the fun trips and special holidays, wouldn't it be much easier? But until that day arrives, what should I do? Why do I have to go through this over and over again? And so, Friday night ended with us at the same place where we last met. Me, May, Gil and SM. It was nice just sitting there and chatting. Just like the good old days. And to be entertained by a stray cat as well. And just like what I have told May, I really do miss those late nights out. There was this immediate weird sense of loss, when you told me you might be moving. What will happen to all the late night walks that we used to have? Oh man, I miss those days. The cold fresh air we breathe in at 1 am where we will just keep walking, trying of course, to burn more calories contributed by that sinful prata and my fav. milo dinosaur supper. It's all your fault! Always tempting me to go supper with you or more of we always end up eating a lot each time we are out! That very junction where we will bid goodbye to each other and the safety phone conversation that always follows no matter what. That race to see who will reach home first whenever we try to run to keep fit? I love that merry-go-round that you have brought me to, though that was the first and the last time I have been there so far. The thrill of sitting on it and you pushing it that makes me go "wah!!" for each round it turns. A take to remember our childhood days, isn't it? How I will always remember that very night at the merry-go-round. Are we only less than 3 km apart? Or even closer if you measure it by the linear distance - just that silly hill (or is it that quarry?) that is separating us. Yes, stayover at your place when you are back! Oh, I can vividly remember that night when I stayed over! Remember the mask we did? The King Kong that we watched till we were so sleepy? Haha..And I am looking forward to the stayover! I love the serenity which your place gives, even though it's only the second storey. I can picture how nice it will be when it rains - the pitter-patter sound of raindrops on your window panes - how crystal clear they will be. Oh, not to forget the few times I actually walked over to your place - I wonder whether it will be possible for the new place. Oh, how about that sinful banana cake you brought over, or that bicycle ride along the road you have travelled just for that jog. And also that steep slope that I dread climbing each time I want to go up to your place. Didn't we say we are going to try to run up that killer slope some day to see whether we will go out of breath? Let's try it shall we? I'm so silly. I went to streetdirectory.com just to find out how far it will be from Teck Whye to my place. A 5 mins drive, which will - I guess- makes it a 10-15 mins journey for me 'cos of the traffic lights and well, my very slow and steady driving. I guess that comforts me a little. And there is also 985! No more slow and unreliable 176! Not that 985 is any better. Hee. So does that mean we can still walk to the same 176 bus stop at Bukit Batok when we go home late? 'Cos there's 985 there too! You know, the person who is capable of giving you the greatest happiness always tend to be the one who disappoints you the most. Expecting too much isn't good at all. Sometimes I wonder why do I want to place myself in such a spot - to allow someone to manipulate my feelings. Am I ready for it? And so the same old words: Why would I let you appear in my life and mess it up; and to disappear and to leave me to clean up the shit? Despite our own prejudices towards another, we should be reminded that no one really knows what goes on in the privacy of a relationship. It is like a secret society that boasts only two members. I guess it shouldn't be judged on the snippets of information that lands at the feet of the non-members or second-guess by the uninitiated.

Time : 3:44 AM Title : Just Too Late We laughed so much, then we cried all night And you left your shoes in the tree, with me I'll wear them to your house, tonight Magic in the air, tonight The scars. That's what left. Nothing else. Imprinted on her wrists, both wrists. She moved her right hand gently over her left wrist - scars, they tell a story, don't they? But all she could remember was the pain. And why did she slash her wrists in the first place? |
