simply sporadic.

I believe that the flower here has withered (some sort like it), hence opting for a new change in atmosphere. My story will of course, be continued, just not here. It's been real fun blogging and pouring my innermost thoughts here but it has come to an end. Don't be mistaken, 'cos this is a happy ending, really! :) And it'll be a delight to have all of you with me, through another phase of my personal journey;

http://sarahtay.wordpress.com/

It'll be ever so kind for all you lovelies to relink me :) Thanks a bunch and see you over at the new site!

Till then, much love!

all hyped.

Blessed Birthday, Rachel!

I was just looking back at the birthday card 

you made for me last two years. Mann, I miss you heaps!

You've been the ever hyper Raycheerache,

always making me giggle my lungs out when

I see you and especially now, when I read your blog.

Your faith in Him has really encouraged me

on the quiet end and I'm so thankful for you.

Continue bringing that joy & hype of yours

where ever you go because you never fail to

put smiles on people's faces :) It's just your thing!

Love you mucchhs babe! Heee. 

Go be that greaaat film director!

p/s: I got mixed up with the dates :( Haha, blame it on the exams!

back in time.

I was looking through some pictures and guess what I found? The bunch of friends who helped me search for my highschool prom dress ;) Couldn't help but to post about half of the folder, haha!

Such good times :) And I just realized, I had the collar thing going on at that time too *blush*

hush now.

Hush now,

It's hard to notice time,

And death is raping your thoughts, 

But one day soon will come a dawn and all will be as it should.

Hush now,

Take a bite,

It's alright to feel,

We were created to after all.

Hush now, 

When friends have gone home,

The loneliness you feel so overwhelms,

Don't dwell, indulge.

Hush now,

Life may have left you but momentarily,

Get past now and you'll be fine.

-Ai Leen.

I've been finding it ever so tough to get over the whole drama of having my closest friends leave for foreign lands. Even as I speak another girlfriend is packing her way through to leave on Thursday. So many have left and I'm here, wondering if I'll ever leave. On the flipside, don't think I'd wanna leave even if I had the chance to. Doubt I'm able to go through the goodbye(s) especially when it comes to him.

It's indeed very difficult but yeah, lovelies across the seas, know that I'm missing all you souls! Can't wait for June/July to swift by & we'll be hanging out again, just like the ol' times :)

back at one.

1. What are you currently reading? 

Thanks for the Memories by Cecelia Ahern. Haha, I've not moved an inch from the 12th chapter.

2. What are your favourite books?

Elegance by Kathleen Tessaro. Too much sex details but other than that, it's pretty good. Hah.

3. What are your favourite movies?

Lord of The Rings, the trilogy; Centre Stage; Save The Last Dance. I actually have a few more but this would suffice.

4. What is your favourite snack?

Cupcakes with icinng, yummay!

5. What is your type of tea?

Iced, hot and lemon!

6. Where do you mostly find your photo-loves?

Almost anywhere on the web actually since I'll randomly collect any pretty ones that catch my attention so yeah. But I'll try to get my own - through snap shots from my camera phone :)

7. What is more intense to you - pictures or words?

Pictures all the way! After all as the saying goes, "Pictures paint a thousand words". And I really think it's so true. Sometimes words just can't describe a certain event/happening/person etc but when you glance back at the snap shots, you're brought back to how you felt at that particular moment in time. :) I'd cry more than a bucket full if my hard disk crashes and my pictures go missing, for evurrrr. So, touch wood touch wood. I lovelove pictures!

8. Would you rather be an artist or a writer?

Artist, yes yes, artist :) I don't quite like expressing myself in words but mainly in artsy crafty things. I'm able to express myself freely with ideas and stuff through artsy stuff. I don't know but really, my love for artsy stuff has always been a part of me since young, hmm, though I'm not that good an artsy person myself, hah!

9. What are your favorite magazines? 

Julia is prolly gonna kill me once she reads this but.. I've always thought mags are a waste of time & money. Haha, really. I shall save my butt and stop here :) While it's nice to flick through and stuff but yeah, I think money can be spent on urm.. better things? Heh heh heh. On the contrary, I like browsing thru magazines that feature weddings (as expected, no?), and pretty interior designs, furniture & landscaping bits. :) Fashion is good too.

10. Which program do you make your collages?

Program? I believe in handmade stuff, really. Before I was introduced to the amazing world of Photoshop, I've always stuck to the old fashion way of doing things - cut & paste. But even now, I still prefer making things myself rather than on the program/computer :) 

11. If you could live any where you wanted to right now, where would it be?

Hmm, I'd wanna live in The OC, California :) It's such a pretty place to live in. NYC is perfect but maybe not to live in for a long while :) I'd prefer a less busier place, away from the major hustle and bustle of the world :)

12. What is your favorite(s) flower(s)?

Lilies are a bit too big but they're pretty & pricey ;) Haha. I love roses & gerberas. :) But honestly, any flower is good just as long as they're pretty & they don't elicit some sorta stinky smell. I love flowers as a whole. Period.

13. What perfume do you use?

Green Tea by Elizabeth Arden :) 

14. What is your favorite accessory?

I don't know how to answer this. I live by accessories. Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, anklets, hairbands, rings - they're all love <3

15. Where are your favorite places to shop?

I love shopping in stationery shops, supermarkets and of course, boutiques and the likes of it. Haha. They're all equally sinful! I like Pull and Bear but they're a little too pricey for some items. Mmm the normals would be Topshop, Forever 21 and any bazaaaar! Hohoho.

16. What is your personal style? 

It really depends - simple, laidback, a little vintage, summer-ish, and a whole lot more girly than how I used to be ;)

17. What does your wardrobe consist of? 

Mostly dresses! I've got this craving to buy me more dresses :) I'm deeply in love with them - simple & sweet.

18. What is your favourite beauty product? 

I'm not a fan of beauty products but the only one I'd use without fail would be my old & faithful eyeliner. Not much a fan of them beauty products.

19. What is your favourite kind of shoe?

Flops and strappy heels! Traaaaa. :)

20. Finally, complete the following sentence. I dream of...:

... having the most beautiful and perfect wedding ever (this includes my husband! hee), giving birth to pretty children, flying to NYC and of course, being a very successful interior/product designer :) Perhaps the last part about my career, I could just sum it up as a successful business woman, somehow ;) Okay, that's actually my goal too. Hmm, haha!

I'm tagging: Jac, Sandra (somehow you just popped in my head), Rachel, Sara & Alexa! :)

an overload.

It happened..

It really did!

My reaction & response time, a little delayed.

I'm lacking heart beats right now. 

HAHAHA. Really.

But, yayy! :)

Happy Valentine's, Everyone!

Gettin' on with all that exaggerated hype and romance, 

the world's a busier place today.

But definitely filled with an overload of roses, 

chocolates, candies and the likes of it.

:)

tick away.

More often than not, I realize that I'm way behind time. In a sense that I'm extremely behind schedule in completing assignments and carrying out useful revisions for my very exciting upcoming exams. In a pursuit to ensure me attending absolutely all my classes, I fail to ensure that I keep track of time - assignments & revisions.

I woke up today, skipping both morning classes just to start on a very delayed assignment and perhaps, some really good revision time would do me good. And now, I'm blogging, what a try! No, really, I'm gonna print my notes later and yes, I'm gonna start on my assignment like now.

Here's to being a successful student this semester. I'm having a go at it, won't you? ;)

By the way, I watched GG last night aaaand.. super gan jiong! Gah! Totally stirred up heaps of my emotions throughout, heh.

without a bye.

Have a safe flight tomorrow morning, babe.

Don't forget to keep me updated alright! :)

xox.

and i bid farewell.

Brrh, I'm still all emo-fied :(

Yet again, another close friend leaves for Australia. Wasn't an easy goodbye but we all managed it well enough. The airport - always filled with either happiness or sadness, and this time it was filled with the latter. I tend to be pretty good with farewells but on certain occasions, I fail at trying to keep it all in especially when it is about somebody who has gone through many of the ups and downs in life and still remains as the same supportive soul throughout everything.

Told ya, it wasn't easy at all.

At least for them, and me..

Ian Yun, we go way back man. And I mean, really way back! There are so many memories to recall from that I just don't know where to start. We had our awkward moments, best friend moments, stranger moments and the list goes on. There is still something that I feel utterly horrible about of which I shall remind you about it when the time comes. But yeah, at the end of it, everything turned out well and we're both happy people today :) 

You've been amazing, really! You were there when no one else was, you would support all the way without backing out, you would make the effort when no one seems to be taking initiative, you would spill your concerns out when no one else would, you would just be you. And I thank God for a really good friend like you :) Thanks for everything, Ian! I'm gonna miss you heaps so come online often alright. Now go forth and be a good boy will you? Earn Ozzie bucks and spend me coffee 8) Just fly safe, you! :)

And, how could I forget Kat? :)

squishy fleur.

A bunch of us had some massive Roti Tisu fun last night! Thoroughly massive, I say. It was a short time of fun, bonding and mainly giggles :) Short and sweet, really. Well it was actually Ian's farewell because this boy is leaving to Ozzieland on Monday night! Pfft.

Three plates to secure one Roti Tisu.

Go figure!

This whole week's been pretty tiring for me. Going back for classes surely isn't my forte, hee. Having classes from 8 right up till 6 in the evening is not funny. But today's schedule didn't seem too bad for me :) I ended up bringing a really pretty flower home! Wheee, happy girl on the loose 8) I was obssessing over it by taking heaps of pictures with different angles throughout my last class, haha. It's actually made up of tissue by the way - totally triggered the curious nerve in me.

Thank God it's Friday tomorrow! Like literally. Finally a day where I can wake up much later than usual, hah! Surely sounds like an amazing plan to me :) Guess I'm gonna call it a night, so nights!

Hear me out: Awe-struck by B.Reith.

tagger-mania.

Mah homies.

Sweeet.

4. You offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

1. Coke or Pepsi? Why? Details please.

2. Orc, elf, dwarf or human. Which would you like to be? (no half-sies please :D)

Hoho, elf! Okay this question only reminded me of Legolas *grin* so it's an elf for me, all the way baby! Hehehehe.

3. One language you would love to be able to speak/read/write.

Mandarin, definitely! I'm such a handicap at Mandarin alright. Though this year, I've improved my vocab a little already! Bangga sial :D

4. Describe your best friend.

Azalea, Lydia & Mohan are pretty, gorgeous and extremely special ladies. I don't randomly have like 10 best friends so yeah, these three individuals mean the world to me and yes, they're always always amazing. :) They've never failed me, at all! Another best friend who well, is none other than Jan! Needless to say, he's everything la, hee!

5. Have you ever met/touched a celebrity? Who, where and how?

HAHA. I have touched many celebrities. On paper/magazine/posters, hahaha. No, really :) They're none other than Orlando Bloom, Paul Walker, Josh Duhamel, Adam Brody, and you know what? The list just goes on and on ;) How? I just, touch them la..
