It's been frigging long since my last post, too many events & I've no idea where should I start from. Last week had been my most stressful week ever since I came to China. Tests & assignments reallydrove me crazy.. I stayed up till the wee hours everynight to revise.. I had no appetite at all.. I've been having serious giddy spells, insomnia, fever.. I had to take panadol pills in order to fall sleep..
I had been losing weight like nobody's business. I feel very lethargic & I just had this feeling that something bad will happen to me.. a very bad omen.
I just realised today that friends really do come & go. Friends need you for your company - pleasant company, that is. When you're down & all, no one needs you. Friends leave you. Because you dampen their happy mood. & today, I experienced one of the longest distance in the world - when you & i were side by side yet we utter not a single word.
What do you really take me as? A fool? Best friend means a lot to me & if I tell you that you are my best friend, do not ever take it lightly & laughed it off as a joke. The way you treated me really made me realize that I'm just a fool to think that you cherish me as much as I cherish you. I am too upset & there's no way to describe it.. sigh.
I am very tired. I miss my family, I miss my darling.
What a feeling!

Yesterday's trip to town was a pleasantly fulfilling one. We sat public bus to this big shopping mall. It's the first time we boarded a quite empty bus & managed to get 4 seats because normally, when the bus reaches the bus stop in front of ZUCC, there is not one single seat left. So today is pretty miraculous! Haha. I dozed off during the journey & I had the weirdest dream of all...
I dreamt that Levis is having a 50% mega sale off storewide & I DID NOT BRING MY CREDIT CARD OUT!!! Argh! So i hurriedly flag a cab and head back to hostel to retrieve my credit card. Like, what the hell right? I must have been thinking too much about shopping.. Must be.
Alright, back to the main topic.
The huge shopping centres in China are really awesome & it'd be double the joy if I have the cash to spend. They have Vera Moda, CK Jeans, Tommy Hilfiger, Miss Sixty, Mango, Levis, Nine West, Christian Dior, MAC etc. Oh oh, & their prices are so damn steep. One pair of plain looking heels is retailing at a high price of RMB700 (converted to sing. will be S$140). Can you believe it??
I seriously do not feel rich. In fact, I felt like a poor bloke when I'm inside the shopping centre. Best of it all, I really did not bring my credit card out. ): After that, we headed to Adidas shop & 公联. I have failed to keep to my solemn promise. No prizes for guessing it right. =\ I bought one very pretty rainbow stripe tee & a pink Abercrombie & Fitch top. Whee!
I saw this very gorgeous white Adidas's Adicolor jacket & I'm so loving it. Will buy it soon!! (: Kar & I also saw this white Burberry bag & we're so gonna get it. 2 weeks from now!!!! We got back to hostel at around 10:10pm. & this is when the china-guys-are-f*cking-lame story happened.
There was this guy who came knocking onto our doors and Yiting went to answer it. Turns out that this guy clad in white tee & spects asked if we wanna rear a rabbit for a night? Yiting gave a cold "No.". So the guy & his clique were laughing & went back to their room (which is just opposite of ours). After a while later came another knocking. Turns out that there is no one but only one poor little rabbit in a cage. They are so cruel & I think they have carried this joke a little too far! My friends hollered at them but apparently they feigned ignorance & no one came back to retrieve the poor rabbit. So I suggested that we hand it over to the security uncle & report the matter to him. We told him that we suspected the culprit behind it lives just opposite us, & since the lights inside the room are switched on, he knocked on their door once.. twice.. thrice.. umpteen times but apparently, they're too afraid to come out & face the music. Bloody idiots, such a weakling. I mean, if you dare to play such a prank on us, at least come out & sort whatever problems you have with us out lar. Damn hum chi. What you china guys did will not make me dislike you any lesser.
Gonna go jogging now. There's this catwalk event later on & I'm supposed to go for practise at 1:30pm. I'm so dreading it. That's all for now. Ciao.
I love you darling. (:

We had 小长今the day before yesterday & finally tried 茉莉咖啡屋yesterday. As usual, 小长今was delicious. I'll never get sick of the food albeit it's really smoky inside the restaurant.
I've been waiting with utmost anticipation for the arrival of Friday because we had planned to visit 茉莉咖啡屋 on Friday. But I'm filled with one disappointment after another & I doubt I'll set foot in again..
I had been dying to try their caramel pudding, but it has been sold out. Hence, I settled for 奶油红豆西米露, but it's actually only sago balls & rock-hard red bean soaked in a bowl of cold milk. Didn't exactly taste good.. I also tried their creamy mushroom spaghetti, but it's actually spaghetti & mushroom soaked in cold milk. Really yucky. I only enjoyed eating the mushroom - my all time favourite.
In conclusion, do not ever visit 茉莉咖啡屋.
After dinner, we walked along the streets. As we're all low on cash, we didn't really buy anything. I bought one golden necklace with a row of diamonds for only RMB30. I love it so much.
We're gonna hit town later because Yi Ting wanna get her cargo pants, Kar wanna get smth from Adidas & Ql wanna get smth from Giordano. As for me, nothing except for window shopping!
I solemnly swear I'll try my best to not succumb to any temptations of buying anything.
I'm glad we're alright now. I'm sorry for my harsh tone & for hollering at you. But do always keep in mind that I love you dearly.
I love you, sweetheart. (:
What a feeling!

New blog skin to start a bad day.
Woke up early today for Karmene's sake.. You better appreciate what we did for you, my dear! ^.^
Had soya bean & something which looks similar to Roti Prata for breakfast with my ladies.
Had a good talk over breakfast & I love you girls so much! (:
I did not have a good night sleep.. Tossed & turned for like 2 hours & when I've finally made my way to dreamland, I woke up at 2:15am because of nature's call. & I finally managed to get back to sleep at 4am. Are you happy to know that you've tormented me this badly last night?
):
On a brighter note, today is ZUCC's annual sports day & I think it's pretty funny. They have what we call, "St. John's team" or "First Aid Team", just that their members are all clad in pink nursing uniform. It reminds me of the kind of nurse which lives in the 70s or 80s in Shanghai..
Not only that. For the 100m event, they've got 3 participants for the guys' events & 2 participants for the girls' event. I so want to laugh my ass off. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Very extremely pathetic!
But still, it got me remisniscing about my Sec. Sch. sports day. I miss it a lot.. >.<
What a feeling!

I've been very unlucky since this Monday.
First there's this dress problems, then the fake friendster a/c thing. Next few days, I broke more than 2 things & hurt myself carelessly.
Mummy says it's all because I got distracted by the first two problems, hence the little accidents. But whatever it is, I hell hope that the bad luck around me will leave me, A.S.A.P!
I hung up on darling earlier on & believe me, I'm starting to feel guilty.. But still, he shouldn't have spoke to me in that tone of his! Sigh oh sigh.. Today is a very bad day. ):
Will be having Media presentation later on. Hope everything runs smoothly & hopefully, we'll get to be dismiss on time or better still, early!
Till then, take care ppl.
What a feeling!

Are we really that "sua ku" to them? Haha! I'm getting very sick of the japanese food. In fact, I ate very little compared to the previous 2 times when we dined in there. I solemnly swear I'll not step foot into that restaurant for a good.. 1 month. Haha!
[From left] Me, Jan, Ql & Mr Lee
After our dinner, we headed to 银泰& 明珠 because Pam wanted to get a school bag. We both saw a balenciaga's motorcycle design bag alike and decided to ask for the price.
I took a liking to it at first glance but I knew it would be expensive because it is not your regular handbag, but a replica of a branded bag. We asked the lady boss for the price of it & little did we know that her opening price was... RMB 485! Horrible, very horrible! I wanted to walk away because I know no matter how much I managed to bring down the price, it'll still be around RMB100. But I was only willing to pay RMB 50 - RMB 70 since I've got so many bags waiting at home for me & I don't see the need to get one. Pam wanted it badly, so we asked Qiao Lin for help. Qiao Lin bought her bag in there twice, so she knows the way the lady boss works. She helped us offered RMB 50 for the bag, & of course, the lady boss was a bit angry & claim that it was ridiculous. We walked away & she pulled us back.
Finally, we got the bag at RMB 65. How good a deal is that, tell me!! Qiao Lin is still the best! Love you, my dear! Hehe!
My pretty bag
Whatever we said of her, turned out to be true. She wore red, she did a very disturbing act to ____. I am still trying to unravel the mystery, trying to figure out her motive for doing so. She has changed, heart & soul indeed... Let's just hope it's purely just a young lady's infatuation & not something more than that..
Last night was a night full of turbulence for me.
First, something went wrong with the dresses & people are demanding a refund. Second, someone used darling's picture & opened a friendster a/c for free sex purpose. This is a repeated act by the same person. Thankfully, honey managed to figure out the mastermind behind it.
It's very sad to know that your good friend, or rather, you treat him as one although he might not reciprocrate the same feelings, made use of you or something about you to have other gains. It's pathetic if you ask me, having to use other people's pictures to have free sex with girls. Lowdown creatures.
Thank you baby, for cheering me up & accompanying me till late despite being sleepy. I love you. (:
On a happier note, I've completed one compo & I still have one more to go. Been wrecking my brain & my creativity juices seem to run out on me. Boo ): Alright, I'm off to have my dinner. This is the second best thing today.. Haha.
My braised chicken rice with lots of veggies.. Yum ;)

Pei Jin visited the hospital twice last night, on both times I was not there. I feel very guilty ): Although she was not the first to fall sick, she is the most serious case among the 42 of us. I hope she will have a speedy recovery! Take more care & have more rest alright, my dear? Love you. (:
On a happier note, our outing yesterday was a fruitful one. Yt & Ql finally did their french manicure. I was sitting there, waiting patiently & browsing through the nail design catalouge. Alas, I couldn't resist the temptation & changed my existing french manicure design to a pink floral design with plenty of crystals on!
Past..
Present..
The 4 of us..
I bought something for honey, a pink tee shirt, a faux LV watch, a cute lil plushie pig & yet another pair of shoes! Till date, I've got 9 pairs of shoes. 9!! Oh my..
My Pig!
Reminds me of darling.. haha. (; We had 小长今for dinner. It was superb. Will be leaving later for lunch, Ql & Yt will be getting their shoes. I'm very happy for them! (:
Joke of yesterday:
Karmene made a very very VERY disturbing noise while talking on the phone with Roger & lying on the bed.. Ql & I are still very affected by it!! Karmene, I'll remember that forever. & that leg movement of yours! Sexy~ Haha!! (;
We'll be having dinner with Mr. Lee tonight at Marco Polo Hotel's Japanese Restaurant. Today will be our third visit within a month & 1 week.. I'm actually quite embarrased to go in because those waitresses will be thinking to themselves that we're so "sua ku"!! More updates tomorrow.
I miss you baby.. You gave me a shock yesterday. Promise me you won't be such a muddlehead anymore, ok? I love you (:
Till then.. Ciao.

I've always had this thinking that blogging is a stupid activity because it allows people from all over the globe to tread into my privacy.
However, my trip to China has greatly changed my opinion of blogging!
Without entertainment like the TV, I've practically nothing to do in my hostel (except for having to face my laptop for 23456782 hours playing games & yakking away on MSN,
reading endless of novels,
the daily girls talk which I always enjoyed with my roommates & talking on the phone with my love ones).
My friends will blog daily about what's happening in their lives & somehow, I think this has become a hobby for them! SO!
I'm gonna start blogging about my mundane life as well!
Treat it as a new toy for myself in order to past time!
How ironic..
I've been in China for 1 month plus & I'm starting to get used to life over here. Except for the constantly changing weather, life's pretty good,
what with delicious food everywhere & shopping outlets nearby,
but most importantly, the so very cheap prices! I've gained weight, no prizes for guessing it right. But I'll shed the extras kilos fast!
Darling, cheer me on!! (:
I'm still in the midst of editing my profile here & there.
Will post pictures & longer entries when I've gotten the hang of this brainchild of mine.
I love you darling baby. (:
