PRINCESS DIARIES: the love of a princess

*Whooo...(Blows dust off)

Disclaimer: I am here to not disclaim my blog...but to "reclaim" it... Look at how long I've abandoned this blog? How heartless of me to do that...

After the last time i blogged, I think things were sorted out and cleared up. No more unnecessary misunderstandings and yes, I'm back to leading my happy life...

wait...maybe not so happy... I'm so stressed with work now I'm juz blogging to take a breather so that i can clear my clogged up brain and refresh myself abit after sniffing in too much of erm...paint...my dad's painting the living room while i slog my ass in lexi...

I'm enthusiastically (sarcastically) living each and every second of my life now meaningfully because of tight deadlines and other commitments. If anyone wants to tell me that they love being a student and that it's much better than working, I'll just like to add another quality for this "student" you are referring to. and that is to have allowance. i bet with my life that a student without allowance will want to leave school asap and join the work force as much as i do now....

read a few blog entries of ppl I don't really know and I think humans are really animal beings taking things for granted. yes, including me of course. but it's not that easy to identify unless you analyse the things you do or say. most of the entries involve them complaining about their work or workload or bitching about their colleagues whom they are simply jealous about. and they'll continue to say that they hate their job and they deserve to be somewhere else holding a better position, doing more important things or getting a more justifiable remuneration. wth...why don't they just reflect abt themselves?

i tink the learning point here for me is, if i feel really unhappy about things i'm doing and not feeling that the returns i get are reasonable as compared to the effort i put in, then i should juz move on. if you ask me 4 years ago whether i love teaching, i'll say no. my reason of joining NIE is more than practical...to have a recognised tertiary education which is free of charge and to secure a job that earns me honest bucks without having to take risks or dream everyday about getting rich. ask me whether i love teaching now, i'll tell you, yes. i learnt to love it through the four years of my education. ask me 4 years later, i'll still say yes, because i believe i'd have moved on to better prospects than remaining in teaching. but teaching was where i started and it has built the foundation for my career in future.

i have plans, i'll make sure they materialise...

hey guys...it's been a very long time since i updated. been really busy with school, family and my loved ones...

i had a sudden urge to blog today because something happened yesterday. i will look on the bright side and be positive. and i promise that i wont give up no matter what the outcome is. my mood has been seriously affected because of this unconfirmed news and i shall not elaborate. i suddenly realised alot from yesterday till now and i am really understanding how brittle life is and how humans can be true and untrue. i guess for the past few years i've grown reluctant of my own life because i keep telling myself that i am not doing something i like. i forgot i have to appreciate every moment i have with my loved ones and that i must believe and have faith that what i am going through and having is already the best that i could have. i pray. very sincerely i pray and i know it's been heard many many times. i thank god for being with me all these while regardless of what the matter is. this time round i hope my prayers will be heard just once more and i'll be ready to give up everything i have juz to have my prayers heard. and i promise to always stay by god.

i watched the channel 8 extraordinary people last night and was really shaken because i wasnt in the correct mindset when i was watching. remember watching the couple who didn't give up on each other? their love touched me so much and it's really a very touching scene. life is so brittle and to look forward, life will simply come to an end someday. yet, to look back, i haven't seem to have accomplished anything great. i'm confused now and i am slowly learning to let go things that don belong to me while prioritising others who really matter to me alot.

while i read through pages in the internet, the more i realised how people can treat each other so diplomatically. true frenz are perhaps not really true while frens who are always not with you might be those who concern you the most. i'm somehow disappointed by what i read but am happy too because at least now i learnt who my true frens are and who i shall never be bothered by and should juz delete off my mind and my life. as my sister told me before that there are simply too little time for you to spend and appreciate your loved ones. then why let those who don even bother about you bother you? those are juz memories that should juz be shut out from my future and i will try my very best to do so. realisation and enlightenment seemed cruel itself. yet after going through, i grow to learn and grow to be strong.

my forest is dark and scary. but i promise i'll brave the storms and fight my way through. i'll someday reach the forest like Queen's narnia forest too....i juz wish god stay with me and bring me through while i put my past behind me and only fight to a bright future...

yes yes...time for some updates...

school started so i'm busy...and it's the 1 week hols now!!!

synopsis for this post:
1. hort park, henderson wave
2. cny 09
3. valentine's 09

haha...not much yea? juz lots of pics to come...and perhaps shall do something different this time...

jane told mi a place like hort park while we went to do our hair so i forced my prince to bring mi there...and was pleasantly surprised by the trip...nice one...

a swing at the door? so sunny...i want one in my house next time...when we get married...

wat a fat face i have...time to slim down...

under construction yet still looking lively and green...

this auntie don't fit into the scenery...wat is she holding on to? a plastic bag eh?

i love colourful windmills!!! blow blow...

erm...dinosaurs became cute in that park?

the sun's on my face la...

an act of...i call it "sweetness"...which guy will happily pei he with his princess?mine will...

overaged...

way overaged...

if only all trees looked like that...

opps...again...i forced him into these...

my prince forgot to open his eyes while i forgot to close my mouth...

nice place to take wedding photos too...juz too much buildings at the back that spoiled the "nature" feel...

er herm...the things an auntie brought...yes she's afraid it'll rain and she will have to walk in the rain...she'll rather walk in the rain with an unbrella with her prince...

don bet...play uno...

bored? then try to cheat and win!!!

double sweetness, double irritation...

ahaha! wat was prince looking at instead of the camera?

pink bridge...i insist it is pink...

although my prince said it looked more like a luk sek red bridge...

the following is not paid by coke...even though i wish it was...

in the midst of nowhere...there's greenery and only a bridge...

and mosquitoes...

and itchiness...* see my fingers scratching

but...

there's also coke...*grins cunningly...

let's drink some...

gulp...hmm...

swallows...hmm...wat's that taste?

don't care drink again...*gulps...

it's happiness!!! *famous ah~ from coke and also pepsi? see how estatic i was?

-end of self made story board-

i made prince pose and this is the look he gave mi...somehow reminded me of lao fu zi or something...*laughs...

the synthetic grass so comfy till my prince took off his slippers...

another silly face...he can be shuai when he wants ok...i show u next time...

a similar fish my prince's father *the king had at home...only that this one is way big big bigger...

back to the entrance where we left...

this is the overhead bridge that's supposed to light up with LED lights at 7pm...but we din wanna stay and wait...we went on to a scary place...

a treetop walk to henderson wave....

my prince is not afraid of height...but i am...yet he left mi there alone to take pic...you know how tall it is? it made my hands turn cold and sweaty...my legs jelly...

it looks ok on the pic...but if u are standing on it and looking down....i din dare to...

my masterpiece of the day...

this is how tall it is...can u see my prince standing at the end?

the sunset up at that height is ravishing...lovers in the sun....

the sun...when you are above all...

beauty that doesn't last...

can you imagine how high it was above? my hands are cold and wet when i took this pic...

the trails that we've walked...from low to high...

and we finally reached the peak....where we can see the sea...right far out...

and we reached henderson wave...right before the sky became dark!!!

rested for awhile and night came...

my face looked...er...haha...nvm...

though i'm not afraid of the dark, i somehow love lights...the play of lights that makes the night more peaceful and mesmerizing....

the effects of a camera....does it feel like you are speeding on henderson wave?

the night ended with a nice meal at vivocity...erm...or did we go somewhere else to eat? haha...i forgot...anyway alot of these outings are making me feel that weekends should be spent like that instead of walking and shopping in shopping areas...because instead of a crowd, these places are much more peaceful, void of the hectic pace...for shopping malls?i leave it to weekdays and when it's raining...

then came cny after a long spring cleaning period...this time round, the cny ambience is so moody coz of the economic crisis...and i think i didn't really enjoy it so much...i hope years ahead will not be like that again...

had a pre-new year eve reunion coz my da jie, jie fu and their unborn baby are going back to malaysia for the cny...woke up early to help out that day... busy till evening and had a really good meal...except for the siap siap soup which spoiled almost everything...those of you who bought hai sheng...next time muz soak long long before cooking...and you'll know wat i mean...

my mum and sisters busy cooking...i oso helping k...that whole plate is i "bao" de...with my prince who wanted it big and fat...hehe...

evidence of me helping out...and my mum's favourite son-in-law...wahaha...i'm so messy and ugly after being busy for the whole day...

see...we cook like buffet lor...coz so many dishes and so many ppl...and my prince is really nice coz he helped the most in the kitchen...i told my mum next time he shall win the "best son-in-law" award k...*juz joking la...those of you who wanna fight for this title, you know wat to do next year right?

we "lou yu sang" that day and had new year cookies right after dinner!!! so fattening...

this is the first reunion with so many ppl at my house la...10 + 1....
1. papa
2. mama
3. da jie
4. jie fu
5. er jie
6. jefferey
7. me
8. prince
9. mei mei
10. chester
11. baby nephew

then it was the actual reunion dinner which was somewhat quiet and peaceful as compared to this...5 of us only and similarly, we had a nice sumptous meal...

my dad, mum and mei mei on the bus...

first day of new year...went to 3 places only...it's so quiet this year that i don't feel the ambience... although my er jie became much more ai mei than how she was last time, i tink compared to me, her makeup is way way little...

went to long john after dinner and visiting...my dad loves the wrap there...see how oldies can also cam-whore...

my mei mei and my mum look alike? hehe...i'm so proud of myself coz my mum's makeup and hair that day was done by me!!! yes...every new year, i'll have to take care of myself and my mum...i always start preparing the earliest but end up finishing the last...

my mum's hair for the day...i did the curling and my little sister did the pinning....nice eh? look so gao gui...ok...tat's at least what i thought...my curling thongs are the best...wahaha...

my parents...the couple who looks young like every year...

2nd day, my prince's place...hehe...i got 13 ang baos there can...like so much la... din take pics coz the house was really filled with relatives and kids...so noisy and messy...worse of all, i'm there to study...doing my readings for a presentation... how nice is tat?

of course, every new year, we din forget to meet up!!! yes mi and my girls...went to each of our homes...stayed for awhile chatted and then left...i hate leaving...

see what we got? remember it's our 10th anniversary last year!!! a mark of the everlasting friendship...

i think by now you know that i'm tired of putting captions to every pic...haha...running out of words...next up....a recent event...valentine's!!!

a time i didn't want to spend alot of money on juz to prove to others that we are in love...we had chicken rice and went picnic that day...dinner was at fast food...we hate to succumb to temptations from the market...because it's supposed to be a celebration for our love, not a celebration for inceased sales for the shops...

woke up early to cook for my dearest prince...

waited for him to wake up and went to the beach...

east coast...although there's so many ppl there, there's still juz some slowness in the air...the relaxed ambience lifted my spririts and i feel so blissful to be able to stay there the whole day...

pitched a tent and stayed there enjoying the breeze and the slow peaceful surroundings...

read newspapers and magazines...

took a nap...i look so ugly la...hand had a cramp after i woke up...haha...

had some food....

it's hot...so we went out and enjoyed the breeze...

and the scenery...this little boy's trying to build a sand castle...i forgot to bring my tools along...if not i will wanna build one too...

had a competition to see who's eye is bigger...eyeliner did the trick...

and enjoyed the happiest, most blissful moments...

by forcing him to pose for me...haha...shuai ma?

for him...

for her...

as the sky dimmed, we packed up and went back...a simple day...i day filled with simply true love...

i love u...

next post...family photos...and other outings...

Yea yea...here's some picture updates on outings with my gerls...

one group with jun and jane...
we went tampines for dinner and then chilled at the ok...i forgot the name of the cafe...there's this outdoor place la...the ambiance was alright...all of us quite tired...had one drink only coz our face became red already...baked chocolate cakes for them...they were nice enough to be my testers...hee...don worry girls i'll bake especially for u all when i have the time...customization even!!!

first up was pictures with each other...we were quite tired that day...some schooling some working...life's hard for us!!!

this was an impromptu pic...taken by the nice waiter...

then a nicer one...but jun's super tired that day...forgive her tired eyes after looking at numbers all day!!!

then the cam whoring zhu jiao became our drinks!!! all in the same colour!!!

and with drinks alone, the waiter thought pictures will look slightly dull...so he asked another guy to make us a rose...white rose...nice....made from paper napkins!!!

then we started taking pics with it...

and finally...my cake!!! i cut them up so that each of them can have a piece...nice and sweet...or did jun and jane say it wasn't sweet enough?

* disclaimer...i did not ask them to pose any thumbs-up positions nor those orgasmic expression!!! see how alluring my chocolate cake can be?

Next up was our pre-birthday celebration at raffles city!!! all dressed up and cakes again!!! How sinful!!!

Birthday wish: I hope price of nice delicious cakes will have a drop in price so that each of us can have more than 1...

exchange of presents!!! jane bought lots of stuff for us from her china trip!!! hee...and the card, made by her ok...nice!!! jun have the same set too!!!

take a look at all the pressies!!!i love presents and surprises!!!

mi and jun happy with our loots!!!

jun and jane happy too!!!

the three of us have the same mirror necklace!!! sweet!!! Happy 10th anniversary for our friendship too!!! how old are we getting?

we went walking around in search of our birthday present...yes the ingenious mi came up with an idea early this year...we're gonna get the same ring with our initials engraved on it!!! too many couple rings around and i wan 1 with my besties!!!

next is the meetup with wen and ant...we've not metup since...2 years ago? went to hk cafe in ps...

the three of us...hee...

the both of them like weird poses...

while i stick to the norm...

and again...the three of us!!!

i baked for them too ok...but both of them are not feeling well so din eat much oso...hmm...muz take more care of health girls!!!

next up...shall bring u on a time machine first...

Back to my darling's 22nd birthday first la!!!

i baked for him too...hehe...brought him...or was it he brought mi to east coast...and i started preparing...

made him a light box as a bday gift...big enough for him to put all our stuff inside...coz he's collecting more and more items...

tried to make a heart shape with the sparkles stuff in the sand...but failed...this is the best i can do la...

me...

and us!!!

went to hard rock cafe for a celebration with his family too...nice...got a free ice cream and a birthday song...plus this...a polaroid pic with him and the ice cream?

yes yes...if u all haven realised...he's 1 year younger than mi...coz he juz turned 22 while i'm already 23...

it was our 1st year anniversary right after his bday...went for crab at the stadium...

the background's nice...juz not bright enough for some photo taking...

i like this looking back pose...it's like looking back at how we got together...good times, tough times, we held on...and we are more than ready to stay by each other for the unknown future...simply because, there's love...

before the actual celebration, we had tiffs on other outings because we din manage to go to the place we wanna go...on that eventful day...

we were happily on the bus and mi..trying to prove to my prince that my face is not fat...

because they look super fat here...

worse in this...like got double chin...

still cant get rid of it no matter how much i try to pose it without...the others that happened on that day shall not be mentioned or remembered...coz they do not contribute to our happiness factor...

a new innovative idea to share with all of u...i made him our wedding invitation for our anniversary...*not very good if you feel ladies should have jin chi and not show ur partner so much that you hen bu de ma shang marry him...

all these are hand made...of course...that in the middle is a sticker la...but all materials are bought separately and made into one nice piece ok...

words here are adapted from the wedding invitation that my mum received a few weeks ago...i stole it juz to copy the words la...and put it back in place...

u know sometimes couples will send their wedding photo together with the invitation juz so that those older folks will know who is getting married? i drew him one...coz i din wanna do a photoshop of our head onto someother's body..mayb if i wanna do that, i'll do mine on victoria beckham's bods...while my prince can have....i tink i better let him choose...

i sent this out thru post juz so my prince can have a surprise...and he did...juz that he went and open the letterbox when i was around...so i had a hard time suppressing my giggles...but i love to give him surprises!!!

then was my holidays...finally ended the stressful period!!! dressed up and went shopping on the last day of exams!!!

then my prince brought mi to WILD WILD WET!!!

he look like a little boy here happy that his mummy brought him here...

i dunno y he is not looking at the cam...he looked silly with that smile...*but i love it...

nice place to relax...but not so nice when there's too much crowd...and the rides are somewhat limited...but if there's a chance, i'll go there again....

finally came december and it's my bday month!!!

my mates celebrated it for mi...nice bunch of frenz in nie...guess it's difficult to make close frenz at this age...

went to the glass house's fish and co for the first time!!! ok...sua gu i know...

us with the food!!! nice...

elyse with prawns...

tingting with muscles...haha...mussels la... i look ghostly white here...mayb it's the foundation or has elyse become darker?

tink it's a cake?nope!!!

it's a dress!!! by elyse...i know this is not cheap k...but i love it to bits...coz it's all white!!!

think it's a musical box? nope!!!

it's my new bag screaming a fashion statement...*as according to alen...

of course i gave them something too...li shang wang lai...juz so that they can have a better day!!! it's an organiser...for the x'mas and new year!!! one prepared for jeslyn too!!!

went walking ard ps with alen coz my darling is stuck in camp...

this is the table that i am supposed to set up if i invite alen to my house for a x'mas feast...

this is the table that alen only wants to sit on for a christmas feast anywhere including my house if i ever invite him!!!

lastly...the christmas tree!!! i love my birthday coz it's always together with the season of giving and joy!!!

another celebration...this time the my actual birthday together with...

ALESS AND MANDY!!!
to think that they actually remembered my bday made mi so touched...

went k at top one!!!

i think aless is becoming more and more feminine...unlike the aless i thought was from P.E school when she juz moved in with mi!!!I love you guys!!! missed staying together!!!

bill totalled up to $48...each of us paid $16 for 5 hrs of singing...shuang!!!

i forgot to put this!!! see the smallest one belongs to aless...she brought it for mi to see coz she always talk to this cat when i talk to my pooh...she thought i'll miss it and brought it with her that day...and she finally found her shi san duo nian parents and er...maid(the black one...opps)? apparently according to the recept there, the 2 big cats were customised by the boss somewhere for the sake of putting it there to attract wealth!!! and the steamboat stall next door got the cat's "chor chor"wahaha... even bigger can???
