Even my 3rd sis's teacher is concerned about me?

I have realized that I have attained yet a higher level of thinking. For that, I am very proud of myself. My tolerance level is getting higher cos I am very unaffected by the things people around me say or do. So it keeps me real cheerful and happy cos how I feel is how I want it to be.

It has been a really amusing saga recently probably cos my age is catching up on me. It is really funny weird how everyone around me is so concerned and worried over my love life, my marriage more than I probably would care. Usually, I would have been annoyed with these kay poh people who have nothing better to do than to poke their nose at my lives. Now I just find it amusing.

So I went for 'meet-the-parents' session for my 3rd sis on last friday. Her teacher was very pleased to see me. She asked us the difference in our age and she said we look like we are about the same year. I was very flattered. (on second thought, not very flattering and I should do something to look my age so I would attract the right age group of guys) Then the next question came, do you have a boyfriend? Sigh! I felt like some old spinster dragging this question every time. Of course you could so imagine the following conversation when you said "NO". GOSH! She went on to preach about how I shouldnt be so choosy. What gave her the impression that I am. HELLO?!! I am not choosy. Cant blame me that nobody wants me.

I have been getting this alot recently. So I am thinking either I should lie about my age or I should lie about my status or I should lie about my sexuality. Third option sounds appealing since I already have a lesbian lover at my convenience, right Jace? wahahaha

The guyfriend's girlfriend

Previously on my blog, I talked about disliking my guyfriends' gfs cos I dislike the idea of sharing my friends. Now I have alternative view.

One of my guy friend's gf got really upset that she msg me to complain about how he made her wait half an hour because he was getting flowers for me. When she made noise about it, he was pissed and he scolded her. Call me evil or mean but I am secretely pleased. wahahaha.....Well! A word of advice to all the girlfriends out there, please do not compare yourself to me. You have him all to yourself all the time and it is only once in a blue moon that they pampered me. So deal with it.

Just thinking about it now makes me very happy to know my friend loves me so dearly. Thanks nick. I love you very much too for loving me so much. Thats the perk of your guyfriends having girlfriends. First, you dont feel obliged to take care of their well-being cos you assume their gfs will do a good job. Even if they dont, you cant do much cos you dont wanna be a tramp and on that pretext, you are spared from the responsibilities of taking good care of them. Second, you are still as doted by them as usual and yet your guyfriends would not keep bugging you to accompany him cos he is bored. Afterall, I dont really dislike their gfs that much cos I know I am always this special to all my friends. *evil laughter*

Graduation Part I

I have officially graduated!

So here are a glimpse of some of the photos I took with my family. Like what B2 said to me, I think my parents are very proud of me so I can see from their faces. I have not seen my dad smiles so happily in the longest time. It was a really nice and happy weekend. At least my parents were real sweet on that weekend. After my sunday photoshoot, we had dinner outside and what my mom said was real endearing.

Mom: Lets go out and eat dinner to celebrate. It's your sis's big day!
Sis: (exhausted from waking up early morning to prepare for photoshoot) Huh? *sian
Mom: C'mon! It is her big day today so she calls the shot and we just have to let her have her way today.

Nice thoughts mommy! She was extremely pleased with all the bouquets I received on that day somehow. It was also very sweet of her how she placed all the nice bouquets around my room so that I feel so happy and blissful whenever I see them. It is like being reminded how much i am being loved by all my friends.


I look like Harry Potter's schoolmate, aint I?


Check out my daddy and mommy. He has the best smile ever. It was extremely sweet of my friend to come and take such a marvellous shot for us on that day. It really meant alot to me.


This is my family photo. My mom really wanted all of us to take a nice photo together just so she could blow it up and hang it in the house. It has been a long time since we last gather together for such a nice shot. Thanks for making it happen and keeping my mom happy.


This is my dearies. Aren't they pretty? I am so proud of them.

Harry Potter, The Order of The Phoenix



Never fail to bring me to another wonderland to take a break from all the realiy. This show is ever darker than the others and it doesnt help that harry & his co are growing up. I prefer the cute silly harry. Anyhow, I am alittle disappointed with the storyline cos I was expecting more thrilling action scene. The last part was alittle fast and short compared to the rest of the show.

Also, alot of the issues are not resolved. Like the story between Harry and that stupid chinese girl that he kissed wasnt developed further. Then how about that giant? etc...

Nonetheless I enjoyed watching Harry Potter with my brother. It was a sweet outing. Felt like some single mother though. hahaha... Whenever I watched Harry Potter, I cant help but miss Alex. He was the one who introduced me to Harry Potter, remembering how he always tells me excitedly about the book he reads like some angelic small boy. Well! That's how I like to remember my old friend.

La Vie En Rose



Another spectacular french film! I am always a fan of french film or european film in general and this is one reason why i fell in love with them. Very compelling storyline and that instant you could feel the intensity and the pain of her life tragedy. The actress's performance was so convincing that you do not sympathize the character but rather understand the emotions and pain she is going through. You felt like you are in her shoes. Of course the credit must goes to the director in framing. Most of the shots are very claustrophobic to make the audience feel uncomfortable and through this framing tactic, he makes the spectators understand the misery of her life.

It was almost musical film as the storyline is based on a music scene so watch out for pretty much singing. I fell in love with some of the songs. Definitely gonna get the soundtrack.

The implicit meaning of the film is really touching. I admire her courage for love. To her, love is the essence of life and she lives to love even though since young life has been very unfair to her by taking away all her loved ones from her. Yet, she never once lost hope, continually finding love and giving her all to love and be loved. Very noble indeed.

Happy Happy Happy Happy Happy Happy Happy

I find it strange how I am so happy despite so many things going on.
Guess cos I managed to find a way to deal with my own feelings instead of getting upset over my childish parents.
Well....if you cant change them in any bit which is beyond your control, trying changing yourself or your perception which is within your control. Finally understood what is one ear in one ear out.

I was alittle pissed at the way my parents "greet" me early in the morning the moment my 2 eyes opened. Non-stop roaring..dont they get upset starting their day in anger? Dont they get tired raking up the past? (cos they cant find new things to scold me but they just cant stand my face I guess so they just have to find something to say...hahaha..childish!) I feel so exhausted for them... I was also kinda pissed the way my parents think and the kind of value they are trying to impart. I was close to talking back when my mom criticized my prof. She said "dont know how much she has made use of you so she is so nice".

Hello?! not everyone is so intention-driven like you. Not everyone so fake like you. Not everyone so superficial like you. & im not like what you think as someone who has noone to care or love. I was dying to tell her my prof treats me better than my parents. She cares and dote on me so much. She appreciates me unlike you. She helps me find job, worry about my pay when all my parents did was scold & scold. I was really on the verge of telling her off. She is so ungrateful. She likes to force her own thinking onto others. Just cos they made use of me badly & yet still so unappreciative doesnt mean the rest are like them. I am disgusted at the thought that they are my parents. Geez! Then my dad goes on about my future husband how he will be unable to stand me. I think to myself "WOW! now you are not only raking up the past, you are even predicting the future for me. Happily curse me. Well Done." But I secretly replied, I will never marry a man like you and probably cos there are men like you, I am commitment phobic.

Despite all these, I am not so angry with them anymore. Just find it amusing how childish they can get. How immature they are. They seriously need to reflecton themselves. Find a coconut tree & sit down & reflect. (Jace..sound familiar?)

Well! I am still very happy. Finally, today is my last day of work at St James. Though I cant bear to part with all the nice people working together, I am glad I will be done with my super mood swing boss. I am in super good mood the entire week. Living in my own world.

I am a happy girl in a happy world

I think I am getting stronger.
Somehow despite all the turmoil I am going through, I am amazed how great and happy I am feeling this week.
Guess I have found a way to be firm and not get affected by unhappy things.
Cheers to the princess!

I am happy I watched Transformer on Saturday.
I am happy I went out on Sunday for retail therapy.
I am happy I ate my happy food "Le Royale" from Canele.
I am happy I had a great korean dinner on Monday.
I am happy I watched "The Prestige" with my friend.
I am happy Puree is back in sg for my graduation.
I am happy I met up with Puree last night and had a great time.
I am happy I am able to take one week break next week.
I am happy weicong msg me last night to meet up with me.

So who say I am hard to please princess. I am very easily satisfied and it is easy to keep me happy. I am happy so long as I know my friends love me and care about me. I am happy when I know my friends think of me. I am happy when I know my friends acknowledge my presence. I am happy when I know my friends wanna hang out with me. Basically I am very happy even though I get shit the moment I wake up in the morning and the moment I step into my house (read all the time I am at home). I am just happy for having all these wonderful people around me.

Somehow meeting up with Puree last night gave me this unspoken and hidden power. I felt like nothing about my world has changed. It was like life back in ac days. Carefree and fun?! I felt warm, nice and safe next to her. Just having her there was more than enough for me. I could feel the moral support from her already. Like the strength to face the world no matter what bad may come my way. Strange aint it? She doesnt have to do anything. Just her presence makes me feel stronger and happier. Guess thats the power of friendship and the strength that old bond binds.
