Very high retail therapy
Friday, March 31, 2006

ARGH. I didn't know April's Fool Day is tomorrow. And I got punk'd today by XIANGWEI & RITA. Very smart people indeed. I think I can't fool you this year - have to wait till next year. Muahahahha. /glints

---

I have an unexplainable enjoyable retail therapy today. Although I can't managed to get tickets for Topshop Fashion Show (glares at XIANGWEI), haha I still like the storewide discount of 20% on the new season range. Hurrayyyyy. There's Rita, Xiangwei, Monica and me.

I spent like 150 only! It could have been 20% more - do your Math. I can't take my eyes off the vest, the dress-like top and the bubble-sleeved top. Wa, I tell you.... Today I am like being myself once again. Heck care everything. Happy-take-n-go.

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHHHAHAHAHA

I am so happy today.

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

And I just succeeded in punk'd-ing Rita and Shandy and....

Let's await tomorrow. ;)

YWith love, Valerie

Anorexic Model & Fatty Bom Bom. Fusion Gathering.
Friday, March 31, 2006

Today went Daphne's house again for Fondue session. Yes and Rong Rong!

Then Daphne and I went for our NCHS 4Fusion gathering.

A pathetic 18 turned up only (out of a class aroma of 42).

Because mostly has school (JC) the next day.

What a pity.

Anyway, the venue is at Quest Cafe (Hazel's Mom's) near Expo Hall.

We chatted a lot.

I ate a lot too. I am still full while typing this entry.

It feels that good whenever you catch up with old friends.

You can always make new friends, but don't ever forsake old friends.

Like someone.. That Giant (my bestfriend always).

I keep telling them how much I hate him.

Haha.. Because he is so dear to me, so naturally what he did broke my heart!

Alvin, as much as I hate you, I miss you. :(

My wonderful memories of me and one of my bestfriends. :)

---

People say that the first thing you notice when you grow fat, is a rounder face.

Yesterday when I was in the car, looking at the rear mirror, i find myself looking like a volleyball with features, facial hair and more hair on the top.

Really. Should I muster my courage to stand on the weighing scale, or should I just continue gorging myself with food and live in bliss?

By the way, do you want to suffer from anorexia or obesity? What will you choose?

In my view, i think if I'm going to die either way, I will choose to die from obesity.

Simply because I still can get to die eating delicacies. While on the other hand for anorexia, you are deprived of all sensational experience for the tastebuds.

Although you will look greasy and clumsy being obese, but I don't think you won't look any better looking like a bag of bones.

Okay with that all said, I am commencing on my DIET PLAN immediately.

How ironic...

YWith love, Valerie

I AM NOT HAPPY. UNHAPPY. AND SAD.
Thursday, March 30, 2006

Actually I am very sad ..........

Nobody is going same class as me..........

So afraid nobody go canteen with me to eat.......

So relunctant to feel loneliness..............

Most importantly, my good friends are all not around.

Just spiritually around for now.

I NEED YOR BODILY PRESENCE!

ARGH!

YWith love, Valerie

Daphne is back from Hong Kong!
Tuesday, March 28, 2006

It was a GREATGREATGREAT day out with Daphne. She is back from Hong Kong - so - Welcome to Singapore! We walked till our feet went sore. She let me sample Hong Kong's Lao Po Bing and bought me a nice Hello Kitty mirror. Just nice mine broke. Thanks!

Anyway, today I bought my Papillio for 99 @ Wheelock Place.

I heart my new sandals.

Meanwhile was smsing Rex. He is a SICK guy, and a self-acclaimed PAEDOPHILE. Hahaha. Nah. He is a nice RUGBY COACH. Yea, coaching young boys.. And girls.
Oh ya, I got in Marketing option. Beams.

We ate these...

Altered my Miss Me jeans for 12 at Far East Plaza. And did eyebrow threading for 5 at Midpoint.

Shopped around, around and around...

---

Met Mom, Dad and bro for dinner. And we went back home. And we took these in the car and outside our house.

After taking this picture, I fell faint on the ground.

---

Daddy asked me to give the lawbreaker kind of face. I failed, so I tried again.

Bingo!

Bro & Me

It says so.

Admiring my new footwear.

And I shall end this post with a pretty picture.

:) Good Night, all.

YWith love, Valerie

Suntec City German Exhibition
Sunday, March 26, 2006

Today I finally felt what it is like to be alive once again.

Because I finally set my first foot out of my humble abode, after several days of being cooped at home, playing The Sims, eating, sleeping, and being deep in reverie which no sallies of yours could ever successfully arouse. Hahaha.

---

Daddy, Ahboy and I arrived at the Suntec City Exhibition Hall area. Of course, before that a lot of cars were like vying for parking lots. Really. You see cars taking fast turns, halts and swerves just to quickly insert their cars in the lots they painstakingly hunted for. Kiasu-ism.

Our stomachs were literally growling.

So we swiftly settled down in Fish & Co.

Daddy : New York Fish & Chips

Ahboy : Grilled Seasonal Fish (Sambal/~~Cajun~~)

Me : Prawn Vermicelli

We all like our food - except me.

It tasted corny. Upon setting my beautiful teethmarks on the prawn, it oozed out something that taste like the sea. @%$#*&

I'm bloody well-fed with the fact that prawns live in the sea - they don't have to make me taste that!

Anyway our lunch is chatter-filled.

I can't remember when was the last time Daddy and me sat down for a proper meal.

Love Daddy.

---

The threesome meal ended. And we went for the German Exhibiton Hall - all about German products, lah. I only have eyes for that Mercedes-Benz Bionic Car.

It is lime green. And the body structure is very very very woooooah.

And I still remember the very cool joke - "So cute. Can give me?"

Haha, it is a rather 'inside' joke. Only Daddy Ahboy & I are fully aware of.

Daddy's a full-time joker.

Of course the shrewd Val will definitely psycho them by all means to let me shop.

Marina Square always never fail to make me crazy.

However I think that the merchandise range of Mango, Topshop and Zara are more diverse in town.

Anyway, I bought a top.

It is not that I really like it a lot. BUT I have to buy something. So I chose that.

---

Take-away dinner from Jalan Kayu's Thasevi.

We ordered like 10 kosong, 3 egg, 2cheese, 1 curry chicken and 1 fried fish.

$20.90 only.

I think eating at home with my family is the best! It is way superb than fine-dining with a wrong company.

YWith love, Valerie

Post-results, Blog & Friendster
Saturday, March 25, 2006

A looooot of people comforted me upon hearing my ~~outstanding~~ degrading results.
Oh yes, I myself was flabbergasted too, in a bad way.
And a BIG thank you to all those who lent me their listening ears!
Like Rita, Mercy, Lian Kwang, Seh-ba & more...
Besides, I don't want to seem to be kicking up a big fuss just at the several Cs.
---
How do you like my new layout!?
I did the picture.
I did the colour coordination.
I want orange, because cool black is over for me.
It is time for zesty fruit feel. I need something to lift my spirits.

I like the way my Friendster looks now.

"Keep the fissure closed, because the low love rent is overdue." is solely thought of by me. I don't know what came over, but I just typed this as if someone is whispering these words into my right ear.

YWith love, Valerie

DBA1A01 Chalet
Wednesday, March 22, 2006

Chalet ended quite unknowingly to me actually. Haha.. Anyway, it is still fun... All the quirky moves and LOUD singing, laughter and yakking. Graduation Song made us high. But the song is just a little short of being apt, but apt still. Slap me haha. Show you the soul system next time. BBQ was great. Otah, satay, chicken fillet, chicken wings, marshmallows, sweet potato, sweet corn, hotdogs, crabmeat. And chips, lychee drinks, Barcardi. Night fell. We played card games for hours! Like a game of Bluff can take up an hour plus??? horrigible... I have learnt tactics, how to have an emotionless countenance, and to be more brave in flipping bluff cards over. We didn't skate. Neither did we swim. The second night's a flop. But the first night is way memorable enough.

YWith love, Valerie

The results
Wednesday, March 22, 2006

I didn't have terrific scores.

There's countless Cs & Ds.

---

I badly need an eyebrow trim, and a new hairstyle.

I haven't been visiting my hairdresser for a fairly long time.

I think she misses me.

I'll await Daphne's arrival from Hong Kong, and we shall go brow-trimming together.

Yay-ness.

Oh right, I want to go Hong Kong too.

When can that be?

YWith love, Valerie

Be oblivious once in a while
Friday, March 17, 2006

I didn't wear contact lens to work today.
I wore the pair of spectacles that I only wear at home..

My degree is >550 per eye. BUT I don't quite give a damn.
I just took off my specs and walked along the usual concrete paths.
Sometimes, it's good to be oblivious to the what's and what's nots.
Right!!!??

YWith love, Valerie

Homosexuality & its rights
Wednesday, March 15, 2006

SOMEDAY I WILL BE AN OUTSTANDING BUSINESSWOMAN. :)

---

It was a rather chatter-filled lunch had with Rita, Mercy, Pepsi, Amelia and KEN KWAN at Jack's Place (near Heeren). Mr. Ken is a duitiful PTN cum Statistics module lecturer & tutor. I had Ribeye anyway. It was hm........... tender, nice, succulent and satisfying. The potato was well-cooked, topped with salad sauce, green onions and fried bacon bits. Lovely. Grins. :) And milk tea. And dessert. And seafood soup. And garlic bread. And - just a jest, no more upcoming food. Haha.

Mr. Ken foot the bill and we left that underground.

It is time for separate ways! Mr. Ken gotta go do some mailing, cutting of his hair and gym workouts! We then left for Food Republic's Ice Shop.

I think homosexuality is a fascinating topic to touch on. DO NOT say I have little exposure. Let me relate, that time I was walking along the bustling streets of Orchard. And this is the climate (that's quick), I swept a glance over and the corner of my eye caught this man. "Quite handsome," I thought to myself. But wait! How come he is holding hands with another guy!?

Then you see Valerie at then reeling from the shock. I kept letting out my 'oh my god's.

Damn it. From young I watched TV dramas with only men and women kissing, certainly not men with men. Mother Nature is so intriguing. To come up with these instincts.

It took me a while to accept, retain and absorb this fact. I accepted lesbians long ago. I used to think gays are just some cold jokes. We have heard ample tales about chavinism, big guys' ego and head of the family. By the way, I didn't tell you all these to show my ignorance hahahaha.

I used to despise people who put "No gays ahh.." in the Friendster's "Who I want to meet?" field area. Like COME ON, GROW UP. After that incident, I empathise them.

HOWEVER, I do not discriminate homosexuals. It's the lives that they want to lead. And if it takes time for the entire society and world to be liberal about it, so be it.

Not minding about how the others look at you is actually a feat easier said than done. It takes immense courage and determination. Imagine two men holding hands, strutting along the never-busier streets. It is deemed to invite ostracising stares and glares.

So if I see a gay couple on the streets once again, I will probably stop my walking feet, and give you my greatest salute. And shout: "Y'ALL THE MAN!"

YWith love, Valerie

Expo Hall
Tuesday, March 14, 2006

First day of work @ Expo Hall.

It was crazy.

I spent 25 dollars today -

which means I only earn a meagre sum of 3 bucks!

WTHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

I bought tidbits and facial products.

(I wonder what will I buy for this whole week.)

---

Daphne left at 4.30pm.

The promotors of Fasio are good people! (Karen and "???")

They make my work much more fun.

So crappy and engaging beauty talks.

Karen is making lunch for us tomorrow........

By the way, Karen she is a big big spender on care products!

I believe it will be a great week. ;)

Getting EMO-tional
Sunday, March 12, 2006

To me, secondary school days are the most carefree days of my life.

From there, I learnt how relationships between people should be like.

To almost fully comprehend what's friendship, leadership, kinship et cetera.

And this is also the period when you want to find out more about Love/BGR.

It was also my school that taught me how babies come about. Hahahaha.

During my upper secondary days, I finally know how different "love" is from "infatuation".

In my POV, "infatutation" is sweet. Your heart beat races madly, a thousand and one butterflies colliding in your stomach, a giantic knot in struggling to be untied, and the imense heat trapped within your body waiting to break free.

You struggled to act indifferent. You restrict yourself not to look into his way. But you find yourself not obliging.

On the other hand, "love" is a lethal word. Lethally gorgeous, and lethally destructive.

You get to live in the oblivion that comes what may, he will be there. He will support the whole already fallen sky with his spike hairdo. He shares with you his Oreo - you get the cream side. And that by holding hands, you learn that heat trapped for sure raise the temperature - you begin to trust your Physics teacher. You also gradually found out that hands do turn cold, so does the heart, then you learn it's time to part. To find that you are not-so-sane after breakup calls. To deal with post-breakup's kickup huge ass fuss, trouble bubble, and piecing up your most original heartbreak jiggsaw pieces - finding your way out of the maze to leave sadness.

And you will find that happiness is only a state of mind.

Eventually, you surprise yourself to know that parting is only part and parcel of life. And breakups are not so bad afterall. You get to keep memories FOC, yes!

The memories run like a film without a sound...

They are for keeps.

YWith love, Valerie

No more lies, please
Thursday, March 09, 2006

I dislike this particular girl.
She told me a lot of lies!!!
I am so stupid, gullible... yada.
I don't like you... Really.
So, please go away.
.
.
PEOPLE WHO LIE ARE JUST HIDEOUS.

THE STUPIDIEST PART IS WHEN I BELIEVE YOU.
AND THE SCARIEST PART IS WHEN I FOUND OUT THE TRUTH.

Is this a dangerous world?

Or I am too cooped up - I need some exposure?

Mademoiselle Diamant
Tuesday, March 07, 2006

Hey I spent like the whole afternoon getting this fixed.
YAY, the Mademoiselle Diamant version.
It means Miss Diamond - in french.
See the two pretty girls in the background?
They are my 2 best friends!
The picture was taken like last year? Or last last? (Shrugs)

Oh yes, I just realised that the comments can be set to be posted by 'Anyone' instead of 'Only Registered Users'. So sorry. No wonder some of my friends, who wanted to comment, can't managed to.

Aloysius broke the record.
Monday, March 06, 2006

LIKE WHAT THE HEAVEN!?

My mom called to say that my brother hit his friend's head in school.

His teacher called both of my parents down.

My brother doesn't seem to be the kind that can be potentially violent.

Out of the three, you are the first to break the record.

Well done, Aloysius.

Haha.

(What a sister.)

---

I don't have any immense hatred for anybody yet.

But if I really have like those life-long enemity with someone, I hope to lunge my an arm-long knife at you 1384765349 times, or skin you alive with a giant orange peeler.

But in actual fact without false fronts, I think I am only capable of poking you with a toothpick, it won't bleed, but just be left with a temporary skin indent. HAHAHA.

Hey, I thought you might like my action-packed entry.

The Classic. And some cam-whoring.
Saturday, March 04, 2006

Shandy cried today.
Her boyfriend bullied her.
Hahaha. I hope he reads this.
So Valerie the Nice agreed to accompany her to town.
We took a cab there, during the journey there's a lot of whinings.
Because the traffic was bloooooooody clogged with vehicles.
(Talking about that, Daddy is trading our car for another. Daddy likes buying cars, most types already, like sports, mediocre, posh. Slight depression dwells in whenever each of them has to go. After all, feelings grow with time.)

---

DAMN IT. My hands actually very still one okay.

Alighted at Heeren, went to find the ex-colleagues and walked around.
Then to Far East & Wisma.
Oh well, that lucky girl bought tops from Topshop and FLMP eventually.

---

OKAY HERE COMES THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE DAY:
I finally witnessed a guy of around my age clad in Classic wear!
He was just right in front of me in the cabin.
Perhaps my heart did throbbed furiously. Oh wait, perhaps I made that up.
Haha. He was in a white Ralph Lauren Big Pony long sleeves shirt, beige-coloured bermudas and a pair of Birkenstocks. Left pierced blingkabling ear and a sunkissed look.
My heart went a little faster when I see him using the same cell model as me.
I felt like tucking a slip of paper in his pocket momentarily.

Maybe I rattled way too much about pretty boys.
Haha. I can't help it I am sorry... A nice Samaritan just need to admire them...

YWith love, Valerie

Arab Street
Friday, March 03, 2006

I waited like a full 3 hours in Flmp/Wisma, for my dinner.
Then headed to Heeren taxi stand with Lesley, Airell and Llyod.
Met up with the rest for Arab Street.
Heard there's a nice legendary chicken dish.
---
Paul Rach Pris and me waited supposingly the longest cuz we took the first cab there.
So we waited, because no such cab can house 18 people!

We were then led to a room with glass doors, near the alley.
It was not overly furnished, but there's really nice ornaments.
The light was dim. We should be quiet - but we ain't!
But it's okay. Little did we know that we have to wait like 1 hour for the dishes.
When the waiter brandished the plates out, I was like YAY.

Anyway I like dinner talks. Oh well, but not when I am eating. I can't do that kind of multitasking. :)

Oh yes something important.
'Cause I know he will be reading.
RUSSELL CAN I PLUCK OUT YOUR 3.8K BRACES?
Hahaha.
---
Llyod Airell and me took cab home, cuz we all stay SengKang.
But in the middle of our chat, we decided to go Jalan Kayu eat Roti Prata!
We dropped down and sat at a table near the roads.
Ahhh, perfect setting to chill. It's night somemore. Like 1 plus.
We ordered Pratas and started yadayada-ing.
I had Cheese flava. It was darn addictive like what Llyod said!
I could have ordered more, if not for Mom's call.
It was 2am then. Gave Llyod and Airell lifts home.
I was like telling Airell we The Jalan Kayu Trio can drop by there again sometime.
Hahaha.... (fades)

YWith love, Valerie
