Emma, you find love in a Secret Crush





You love the crush. It's that simple. Butterflies in the stomach, blushing when they walk in the room, coming up with plausible excuses to talk to them — it's the whole fantasy that appeals to you. Maybe you like having a secret and admiring someone from afar, or perhaps you're just shy when it comes to matters of the heart. But underneath all the cloak and dagger stuff, we wouldn't be surprised if there's a passion for all things mushy and gushy. Maybe that's part of your secret too.




In or out of a relationship, you like the idea of the ideal. That's what can make it so hard to take the first step to make a crush something more — you don't want to burst that bubble. But how do you know what will happen if you don't try? Maybe some secrets aren't supposed to stay that way.



oh my god, i think it's so true.



a proper update coming up soon! =)

i tagged-along kynn to baybeats on saturday after quarter-a-day at bugis. i almost didn't make it as i had a terrible tummy-ache on the way. haha. so met kynn's friends at lj over at marina's and headed to the chill-out stage. i couldn't see a thing la. (being the short me)i just saw a guitarist doing his thing on the big screen. not satisfying enough.



so we went to the arena, and that's where the fun started. woohoo! we 'grooved' to the music and sort of joined in the mosh a teeny weeny bit i think? we were at the sides, pushing back the people that pushed themselves towards us. and i fell to the ground while jumping and being pushed at the same time at this moment. kynn's friend, fat, fell down with me. and i heard she say, "bangun cepat bangun." hahahh. it was scary. we could have been stepped to death probably. so the guy that pushed me held out his hand, pulling me up. hahaha. nice.




ok, here's the irritating part. So in the crazy crowd, in the pushing, jumping and moshing, i was suddenly being grabbed on my waist. by the security guard. it felt like i was on a rollercoaster ride where you couldn't control where you were walking. serious! i couldn't free myself from him. it was crazy! and the gig was reaching the best last part lah. so, while the security was 'dragging' me out of the arena, i fell. again. and i could feel the security pulling me up hard. and i mean it, hard. when we reached the exit, security told us to sit bla bla bla.




and I could remember what he said, "One more time, you guys will be barred from entering and we'll take down your particulars. Then, you'll be sent to the lock-up."




I was there and I'm like, wtf?? what did i do? I fell, pushed people because we were pushed first and dang, we're at fault. so omfg irritatingness. argh. But all in all, I had fun. it was a good experience.











So we were late for our 2nd round into the arena and just squeezed our way through the outside crowds. But something else caught our attention. there were these group of guys chanting away "**** you" and "let us in". they were stinking and it took me a while to figure out it was beer. hahahha. they drank and soaked themselves in it, soaking others in the making. kynn got splashed a bit i think. hahaha. lucky i was beside her. she blocked me. hehe.






so i think our attention were more focused on the bunch of drunkards than the band on stage. even the spokesperson/host had to announce, "you guys better behave or the band won't play." eh don't play, don't play ah. tak heran. hahhahha. its for free anyways.




we were punctual for the 3rd performance.







how punctual? we got into the 2nd row in the whole crowd. woo best! so they had this metal platform for first 2 steps from the front. so whenever i jumped, i would lose my footing. i'd try to find my balance again and bang into the people around me in the process. =p i think we were the only ones at the front that actually moved to the music. everyone else was like standing and god knows what they were doing.


Especially the people around me lah. I feel like some mad woman cos the person in front of me, beside me and behind me were just standing there. i think they were waiting for a durian to fall from a tree. hahhaha. I was there, jumping like a monkey and in the middle of my jumping, this white-haired guy suddenly appeared behind me. shocking!! he looked like a ghost each time i glanced to my back. then sometimes, he would go crazy and give me a sudden push forward, leaving me to squash the person in front of me. haha. but it was actually fun lah. the people pushing, you getting shocked, and you'd laugh over it. hahahha. funny thinking of it. like some no-brainers.




So i took the last train to pasir ris and waited for the long long long 3A. The service actually ended at pasir ris drive 12, right before the expressway to punggol. By then, it was around 12.50am and i was alone at the bus stop. i hailed a cab and paid a freaking $6.50 for it. midnight charge lah, extra charge lah, this lah that lah. i reached home at 1+. (thank god mom&dad didn't say anything. =p)




on sunday i went for my guitar lesson and my whole body was aching. I complained to my sister lah. my neck was somehow sprained, my back was about to break and my legs were wobbly. so tired! the best baybeats among all. we took the most pictures, went into most of the performances(i think) and we went with the most people(i think). hohoho. best lah people. thanks for the nice night.




And i can't wait for tomm. it's kynn's-treat-me-day at gelare! oh-i-so-cant-wait lah......

2006 world-cup champions







yay yay yay! though i don't know who plays for italy and i haven't supported italy all my life, i didn't want france to win. so.....yayness. italy is the 2006 world-cup champions! too bad i missed zidane bull-heading the opponent's stomach. hehehe.







i'm actually quite sick and tired of school nowadays. can someone please say to me, why am i in school again? sometimes i feel that my life is wasted away everyday going to school. half my day is spent waiting for the damn buses to take me from punggol to woodlands and back. and i hate hate hate waiting. waiting alone makes my day even worse.




my class doesn't make things any better. all i hear is everyone speaking in chinese and it frustrates me even more. it felt so sad, being the only person not understanding what my classmates where talking about and it seems my world was revolving in an all-chinese environment. somehow, i managed to fight back the tears and shut the world around me. blasting my earphones helped alot. and i mean it, alot. the sound of the chinese language temporarily stopped vibrating my eardrums and screams played on my itunes. what great timing.



i didn't mind them as they are afterall born chinese and they are just speaking their language. but imagine this, you're the only chinese, hanging out in an all malay group, and everyone's speaking in malay, sharing jokes, laughing at each other and stuff having a good time. and you're there like one goondoo, not understanding anything. what do you feel? it's bad having to experience this and it really sucks. big time.



i just can't wait till i end this semester. hohoho.



and please, some malay companions in my next class!(it wouldn't be so bad then.)




i can't wait for kynno to treat me to gelare. tuesday!(k don't get shocked people)


don forget, choc ice-cream with warm waffles and choc syrup! aaaaahhhhhhhhh.........................



(this entry intends no offence to any particular person. so don't feeling feeling ok. haha.)

Mutiple posts coming up. So get ready for the entry marathon!

6th July 2006 - Thursday




i went to meet a buyer of my nokia 6670 original hp casing. i didn't want to go alone so i made nad accompany me. thanks hor! I guessed that everyone was busy with their own things so I had noone else to ask. he still owes me my birthday present anyway and coincidentally, he was collecting his pay. but i didn't get to decide what i wanted so the present is still pending. hee.



Ok what i actually wanted to blog on this day was the meeting with the buyer.


I sell stuff online - yahoo! auctions. So some of them request for meet-ups so this was one of those meet-ups.


I actually started the price at $8 including postage. He asked a question and he said he needed the casing immediately, how he could contact us and he wanted a meetup and he'll pay $9. Me and my sis were kinda confused on why would he want to pay $9 when we're selling $8 ? weird right?



So anyway we met outside 'popular' at compass point as the buyer sms-ed me to meet there. I actually thought that the buyer was a girl, because my sis said the email the buyer used to bid the item sounds like a girl's. So my mind was set to see a girl. I was holding on to the casing and I had no clue how the buyer looked like. We agreed to meet at the entry of 'popular'. Then there was this one guy, around my age standing there, don't know wait for what. THen i was so reluctant to go lah. he was looking at me weirdly and i was looking at him weirdly.



Our thoughts must be going like "eh, is this the one? what if it's not? later paiseh ah. but, is it him/her?" hahhaha. So what the heck, i just went to the guy and said, are you the one buying the cover? And of course, my judgment is right. lol.



I urged him to check the cover and i think he didn't bother. i was surprised. I mean, if being the kiasu-me, i think i would make sure that it's of good quality and still good ah. but he was like, just turn2 the packet for a few seconds then he said, can lah. hahahha. so good. i was worrying he wouldn't buy because there were some slightly visible scratches. After that, he took out his wallet and handed me 10 bucks. I was going to give his change. Guess what he said, oh, u can keep the change. like wth!! super duper good lah!!!




I was so happy as I was 10bucks richer. hahhaa. Nad noticed he had a few 10buck notes in the wallet. hahha. noti noti.



So after that, we just walk walk, talk talk and laugh laugh. We tried the corney dog at this hotdog's shop and it was very nice. we didn't know they had the cow-like tubes to squeeze out the sources onto our hotdogs until we were halfway down with out hotdogs. hahhaha. I think the cow-like tubes look kinda vulgar. lol.




2nd July 2006 - Sunday




Ervy's sister's friend's brother aka my friend's sister's friend's brother aka my friend aka my hyatt colleague's brother got married! And we were invited, to become the kendarat/servers/helpers. hahahha. =p



and England had to lose to Portugal on this day.


a sad day and arip called to share the news.


nevermind arip. england have 4 more years to claim the title.


but ****, beckham is not the captain anymore.


Damn you christiano ronaldo. Rooney should have stepped on your pe*** instead.


I would have done it myself if i was there in Germany. hahhaha. mcm real je.


Poor Rooney, Poor Beckham, Poor Gerard, Poor lampard, Poor Gary Neville, Poor Ashleycole, Poor Rio.


poor england.........................................................................................................




Looking on the bright side, I was $39 richer. Ervy passed me my pay which she collected for me the last time. thank you ervy! Continuing my story on the wedding, helpers were suppose to dress up with a white polo tee and black pants. I didn't have one so i wore my 3/4 cargo/baggy/very comfy black pants with my old-time white bacin shoes. hehe. so me, ervy and her bf waited for faiz at the bus stop. he watched the brazil match and thank god, BRAZIL lost. I was so shocked when i found out! hahahha. unbelievable!!! by craig david. hahhaha. ok, crap.




Ok so, we had some sort of a joke of the day - that day. There was this uncle in-charge of the decorations i think and was at the wedding. He was nice, encouraging us to eat more and don shy shy. He was smiling all the time and was very friendly. (probably extra friendly).


Later on, the desserts came and we were halfway done with our briyani rice. He came over our table and said, "Help yourselves to the desert. Got honeydew pudding..."



Then ervy said, "eh imah, did he just say desert? how we want to eat desert?"


I was laughing like hell la!! so funny!! everyone was laughing. i mean, if you act it out, and the way the uncle was talking to us and saying "desert" instead of "dessert" was like the funniest scene of the day. hahahha. but it felt so bad. i mean, hahhaha. ok, i think i shall stop talking/typing now




So, i chose thoe job of giving out the berkats/souveniars for the day. Easy job for me. hehehe. =p there were people looking at me funny. I think they somehow thought i'm a chinese and becoming a kendarat/helper for a malay wedding. Lucky there were pakcik/makcik, if not i korek2/digdig the eyeballs. hahhaha.




So I had to leave at 2.30pm as I had guitar lessons at 4. It was so sad. I wanted to stay but I had other commitments. It was so nice spending time with you people. =)


I love you guys!

24th June 2006 - Saturday




we attended a wedding banquet at westin stamford. my chinese side of relatives hosted it and we had one muslim table all to ourselves. =p we couldn't actually finish all the food that was served though I had endless topping-up of coke. i think i drank like 1.5l of coke that day or more. hahaha. So usually for these long-lost meetings, me and my sisters would go shop for something to wear beforehand. It's not everyday that we get invited to such places. And we had to look presentable - dress up for the occasion as people say it. lol.




and i tried to look natural with the high-heels! it's been decades since I had them on. And amazingly, with the high-heels, I'm finally at the same height with my sisters.(or somewhere there) hahahha. please don't laugh people. i hate being short.

















So in the midst of waiting for the whole 9-course dinner to end, we had a mini picture taking(s) as a family/sisters. We were getting quite bored for a while and i think we took more pictures of ourselves than the groom and bride with the guests. kekeke. We're not vain. We're just filling up time. pictures comes precious memories. =)






i took a very long time to decide what to wear for this.i didn't want to overdress though i didn't want to look under-dress too. (is there such a word as under-dress? k whatever. you get what i mean) If it was so easy, i would have gone there with my t-shirt and jeans. =p i think my friends will have the shock of their lifetime if they saw me that day. hahah.


So then, it was our turn to take pictos with the bride and groom. like, finally! hehe.


all of us shook hands, (with the bride and groom that is. if i shook hands with my own family members, i think people would think we're weird. hahha) conveyed messages like "congratulations" and "thank you". It was a nice blue & white wedding. i wouldn't mind going again, because it's not me giving the red hongbao. hehe.










So after the wedding, we continued our photo-taking frenzy. We covered the lobby, the lifts, the bouquets displayed and almost everywhere. I think we missed the toilet. damn...

*something wrong with the blogger so limited pics for this entry. =(


And i'm tired. to write somemore.


and to that someone. i give up. dont bother about me. i will not bother about you. there's nothing left in this body of mine that is still pinning hopes on you. I want to make things clear once and for all. no more confusion, no more heart pains, no more torturing. i hope i'm not the bad person again because the hints and clues expressed were oblivious to you. it seems that you don't care at all and i'm blamed for being too sensitive. argh, it's always me that has to be the bad one. i simply, give up. forget it. forget it!!
