    Capricorn Today:
    Take care not to take on too much today, dear Capricorn. Your intentions are certainly good and your motivation pure, but even you are limited by the fact that there are a mere 24 hours in a day. Pick and choose your commitments carefully today to ensure that you can actually do what you say you will do. You will be more effective, and will get more satisfaction out of devoting your energy to a few just causes.

    What movie genre are you?

    Ever since Qi went back to at Hall 9, we get her updates via her blog. The way she MAGNIFYs little things of her daily life and put it across in such amusing, comical, entertaining, hilarious, humdinger, humorous, hysterical, laughable, ludicrous, merry, mirthful, playful, ridiculous, silly, slapstick, sportive, waggish, whimsical, witty manner.

    Come on, it's obviously a Grade B picture!

    We were discussing this topic last night over a box of Hor Fun, French Fries & 天涯侠医... a very cosy night without Dad, Mum & MinMin. We officially conclude mine is Independent (aka indie or amateur), avant-garde, experimental-underground films (usually low-budget), art-house, not many will understand kind of films. Hah!

    It's amazing how 2 sisters of the same heritage, blood group, birthday month, up-bringing environment can be so different in terms of personality.

    She is a typical sunshine, bubbly, big-eyed, ''i'm fat but i'm happy, none of your business'' & "everybody can be my friend" type of ''adorable' person.
    Me, contrastingly, is those Attitude, Bo-Chup, darked face, "Don't mess with me, get lost" & "almost everyone is an eyesore", paranoid, suspicion, secretive, unfriendly, insecure, act cool, 欠扁 person. (guess no one can put myself down like that, hah!)

    Qi mentioned that I'm actually quite funny at home, just that i don't bother to blog them or even think about them. I just mentioned & forget. True enough, probably i feel quite more at ease in familiar environment. Somehow, i just cant be myself outside. I find it quite stifled or suffocated, even with friends. Aiya, i think i'm just hermit, simply cant get use to those innate societal competitive, juxtaposition nature. Something along the line of an arty-fartsy person but no talent of any type! hahah...

    Our blogging style speaks loudly of this. While she optimistically narrate occurences, small talk or 'freak accidents", i jot down the happenings & the after thoughts that triggered.

    Simply put, She muse & ideate; I intellectualize & languished .

    How different are we?
    Both of us are going to blog about same thing. While mine digress into some personality analysis with some black humour of self-mockery, we see for hers*. =)

    CAPRICRON

    Friday, October 12, 2007
    ~ You may be wondering whose shoulder you should cry on, dear Capricorn, when usually yours' is the shoulder that everyone else likes to use. The collar of your shirt is probably soaking wet by now, thanks to all the tears that have spilled on you. Your compassion for others is definitely one of your biggest strengths but be aware of the fact that it can also be one of your biggest weaknesses. ~

    How freaking accurate. Recently, i've been so whelmed up by people's romantic-fanatic-drama-mama-marmalade. Either i have 'Aunt Agony' written on my forehead or I'm just the perfect audience for secrets-keeping, or the very fact that i'm always FREE (accord to Bro)

    Somehow, unknowingly, i always kenna spiralled into ppl's affairs. 我也不想的。
    So weird... Coz being human beings, I get rather affected & occupied for no reasons. I guess subconciously, curiousity & speculation is my 2nd nature. Most of the time, I can sense that something is so not right & b4 u no it, ppl started to tell me their issues. Intuition?! Maybe i give ppl a sense of security?! hah!

    Haizzz... anyway, i've learn to listen, facilitate, guide and not to give suggestions. But it's just so habitual of me to come up with speculations to analyse the situations.
    Sometimes 我看人还真准!

    Anyway, ting was bugging me to update. Took some pic at Parkway Parade on wed while waiting for Leng to go cut hair. But i'm too lazy to download the nokia software + driver got problem. Everytime I plug something to the USB, it will blackout. I think PCs dun like me. Sighhhhhhh... sianz.

    Extremely tired today, think im going to bed. Yes, 9pm on a friday.

    (Leng: This is then call No Life, ok! hahah!)

    Exams in 4weeks... stresssssssss! This sem is super slack.... DEAD.

    Period = Moody

    I think i'll end up be Seung-Hui Cho #2 if I stay in the States.

    We are always in constant conflict with ourselves.

    Few days ago, i was getting worried coz I miss my period.

    Today, I was wishing it did not come at all.

    I don't like period, mine actually.

    This cyclical process is so queer.

    Physically, I get tired easily as the iron level decreases.

    Mentally, i get very paranoid. Somehow I always assume all the whispers & sniggers are all about lauging at, making fun or teasing me, be it in class or on trains.... I'll imagine I'll have the ability to tekan them back. Be it is supernaural powers or gangster authority or even gun. BANG!

    Emotionally, I get very negative, so much so that i can feel the dark aura around me. shivers...

    I get very mean, cold, attitude to others, more than usual that is.

    Walking alone the streets back home, i wallow in self pity, of loneliness, of deaths.

    I spend a lot of time thinking about what has gone wrong, what will go wrong or what is wrong about myself as a person.

    Why ar?! I think my hormones are very disoriented, probably chemical imbalance in the brain, reduction in the amount of certain neurotransmitters.

    Life... I hate myself. I'm getting crazy soon if these goes on.... sighh...

    Tuesday, October 02, 2007

    Again!!! =)

    Tuesday, October 02, 2007
    Okie... since Facebook is currently not available, i decided to blog. Haha...


    So fed-up with my hair, need a cut badly but like no time leh... sianzzz

    Had to go to Boss's house to work coz the internet is still down.

    Almost got deafen by the 'young master'. He got a mild condition of Thalassemia, so don't think he need to cheong hill next time in NS, ah bo he make a good lousdpeaker.

    Seeing the whole family, his Mum, Dad & Maid fussing over him to get ready for school in a span of 20mins, i can't help but shaking my head.

    I got on web messenger to indicate my presence. Leng was so disturbed by my absence that she actually called me. hah! This woman ar... really ultimate. Gave me a quite shocking news today.

    If you are reading this, remember this: 切记要三思而后行!那一场满城风雨刚刚平静下来,你才领悟。真是的!人家的一句话比我们的千言万语还有效?Tsk tsk tsk... 有一点欠扁,不过还好啦,能理解。Hahah!

    Ok.. on something else.

    I had to contact my service provider to fix the internet downtime. Apparantly, i really lost touch on my human skills. i can 'complain' very well with words but when it comes to verbalising it... sigh.. sad. Response not as quick as before, really very disconnected. Jiat lat...


    Really must make use of my MDIS membership & go and sign up for all sorts of courses to upgrade.

    The issue of getting a laptop happen to pop up several times recently. Maybe if there's a good bargain maybe can consider since i'm like always on the move.


    oki... min min is fiddling with my ancient recorder. Really no flair leh, like mouse squeaking like that. Ho Ho Ho... 让我来好好的调教。。。 哈哈!

    Jacq is offline

    (Entry dated 01OCt07 but only managed to upload it now. Saw the 'knock knock' lah =p)

    Nope! I’m not sick nor did I skip work. In fact, I’m right now sitting in front of office PC, typing this conscientiously.

    Internet is down, so can’t do much work. Hence, decide to do an entry with MS Word 1st.
    Qi was like asking why I never update recently, no that there isn’t happening.
    Just that Gosh… simply no time to update, no energy too!

    Now that I got time, I going to get very lor soh as I try to recall

    The last few week zoom passed like whirlwind yet hazy as I‘ve vague collection of what happened.

    TAIWAN is definite this year end. YESH!

    Let’s just wish Ah Bian be good & the typhoon give me face.

    Explore like ½ the travel agencies in Chinatown 2 saturdays ago with Ting, booked with one that sorta under-quote us. Hee hee.. so heng. =)

    After that, we still got the energy to pia down to AMK for pedicure with Leng, ended with a normal dinner session with mentally-exhausting conversation, not forgetting that agitated phone call that took up much of my sleeping time.
    O well, at least things have ended on a good note now.

    The whole of Sunday was spent unconsciously.

    Monday was boring.

    Tuesday was steamboat with the girls for Mid-Autumn. Leng was treating & I’ve been looking to this day for 8 years leh. Haha!
    Did a 'so-clever' thing by leaving phone at home more, so smart!
    Lucky managed to catch Leng at msn. If not will be so stranded on 15th of 8th mth.

    It was nice to see full attendance but hor we ended up talking about the same issue which almost drown me in opinions & confusion.
    O yes, not forgetting that agitated phone call that took up much of my sleeping time.
    (Same person so same sentence)

    It’s not that I’m being unconcern but seriously, I just never learn & I end up putting myself in pool of shit. Every time, I tell myself listen will do, don’t get involve. In the end, I just can’t control myself to give my viewpoints and ended up being regarded as an antagonist. At this point in time, I can’t help but feeling apprehensive about the upcoming trip. Will the strong headedness nature clash?! Nah… shld be fine since forgetfulness is my 2nd name.

    I always believe there are 2 or more sides to an event, which is so SUBJECTIVE. So there’s the ‘benefits of doubt’ I guess we can be so extremist to get people to think in you own way as everybody see what they choose to see. Usually, we are blinded by many factors in many circumstances.

    I am no saint & my poor memory, poor eyesight & lousy listening skills got me into troubles more than once. I ended being a double standard, 2 headed snake. Guess I have a long way to go to attain 与世隔绝. It’s so difficult to keep neutral yet not seem like nonchalant, bo-chup, cold blooded. So cheem… haha! 天啊!做人真难!
    The only time when I’m与世隔绝 is when phone batt is flat or internet is down. Haha!

    Wednesday, I decided to pontempt work & geng MC after close to non-existent struggles.
    But hor, never get to rest cos I ended up going to Bkt Timah with mum for PT, sigh.
    I also bought a stylo-mylo cordless house-phone at COURTS. Customer Service is fictional on a weekday afternoon, didn’t even see the salesman. Win liao lor, no wonder they absorb GST.

    Thursday evening was SHIOK. Had a mini revenge (Ok I know I sound childish but I just can’t help it, hah!) Morale of the story, U SABO me, I SABO u!

    Friday was KO time & RIP for the faithful Surfer’s Paradise footwear & the expensive Noda’s heels. Was forced by mum to throw them away.

    Saturday was a repeat of stamina challenge of the previous one, just that different venue. Bcoz of the unfortunate incident of my footwear, I have to wear my heels out.

    Full-fledged Jamu body massage + steam bath @ Rustic Nirvana was shiok beyond words. I think the lady uses all her force on my neck & shoulders, too stiff lah.

    Ah Chew’s desert & 1 top + a pair of image-turn’s pumps*.
    Not forgetting the exciting part of the day, other than my phone went flat battery w/o warning, is I get to sneak preview of Leng’s potential # 2 Marcus!!! Haha…

    Evening was a feet-tiring shopping session with Irene, from Hereen to PS & dinner at Manhattan Fish Market ard 8pm! almost wanted to shout ‘Tolong”! Anyway, must thank her introducing Daiso to me. It’s the re-make of 199 Shop. Everything at $2! I splurge on a few miscellaneous items there. Hee =)

    Surprise! Surprise! Surprise! I woke up at 8am & went Woodlands Library with Irene to study. Quite amazed by my energy level though I was trying very hard to keep awake after lunch
    There was a technical glitch when we were there & it took quite some time to recover.

    I think there’s something with me & gadgets anomaly. My phone also went cuckoo this morning, not to mention the internet. Even the usual login ID got problem. Shrugzzz…

    The effects of quite a eventful lifestyle is quite apparent as I struggle to stay awake now, fine lines & dark eye rings getting obvious. Also the statistical reality cannot be denied.
    Therefore, you won’t see many photos being uploaded much.
    Seventh month is over le, so not appropriate. 不要吓人吓己。

    Senile, old, humongous-ly fat all rolled into one, you get ME. Hahaha!

    For the nth time in the past 22years – Time to do something! =o

    Wah, like quite a long entry hor?! 2 pages...hee hee

    *Sidenote: Wahl au, Freaking painful Blisters!

    Update @ 2300hrs: The blister has evolved into an ULTRA painful sore! So jiat lat that im limping. Darn that pair!
