happy boxing day everyone! though I’ve never celebrated this holiday before, it’s nice to wish it. lol.

how did everyone spend christmas? this christmas was just another holiday for me. I didn’t expect any gifts. not even from my parents since they have a habit of not giving gifts. but I got really sensible gifts from my mom. wait. sensible isn’t the word – practical is.

what did she get me? oh. she got me two pairs of ankle socks and a sports bra. really practical ain’t it? and guess what her friend, aunty serene gave me? yep. another pair of socks. come to think of it, my mom’s sister, aunty mary, gave me a pair of yellow billabong socks the year before. what’s up with socks and christmas I ask you?!

I used the comp till 2 am on christmas morn and woke at 8+ and found out that sam was still sleeping. woke him up with a call and left the house to meet him. we went to great world city to watch love actually.

now 7ners planned a day to watch that show last week I believe and I did not join them coz I wasn’t interested in that movie. and boy was I glad I didn’t go with them. coz the movie wasn’t that great anyway.

even sam said it was a little disappointing as he heard it was really good and was dying to catch that 10.40am show and dragged me along. oh well. at least I didn’t waste any money (so obviously he paid for it ;p)

we had lunch at crystal jade. really cina (‘chinese’ in malay) place. well, it is after all a chinese restaurant. then I went home and got a fight with my dad. oh whatever. we had to make up eventually coz it’s christmas.

went back to my old church for a christmas service. felt really weird being there. it’s been more than a year since I last went back to that place. due to certain unexplanable circumstances.

and that is how I spent my christmas day.

boxing day isn’t special. had to go work o_O and I’ve updated a whole chunk of stuff in this site so check the updates page. received late xmas gifts and fansigns so check that out too.

voting is still on at until forever awards so those who haven’t vote *ahem ahem* please go and vote now -hints-

firstly..


merry christmas!
*throws conffetti around and starts doing a mad dance around the computer*

lmao. okay. that was really lame. that gift up there -points up- is for those who didn’t receive a gift from me. sorry but maybe I’ve left you out. for some others who still haven’t gotten it, it’s coz I don’t have your email adds! -makes a face-

I still have dani’s, debra’s, delia’s, ebony’s, isla’s and sue anne’s gifts. sorry. too lazy to add in their urls =/

oh yeah. she-falls-apart.org is up! go see it! if you still see nothing, you’ve gotta click refresh a couple of times. don’t rush through the site k? just take your time 😉

rotk yesterday was great! but kinda spoiler coz I was watching with jun wei and he watched it before so we kept exchanging views and I really hate him for saying that frodo and sam were gays coz of their love for each other.

don’t worry fans 😉 I’ve given him a number of punches for whatever nonsense he’s been spewing ;D

I specially wanna thank annette, april, janis, laurie, mo, per and xtyncia for making me lovely xmas gifts/cards/fansigns/whatever-you-call-ems 😉

and I just have to put this here. per is a wonder girl 😉 she’s made pill for the 7ners! (mouseover for names)

for the whole of this week, I think I’ll be sleeping in the living room with my siblings. why? my dad’s re-doing my siblings’ room and technically, I don’t really have a room so I just crash in with my siblings so yeah, now we are all sleeping in the living room =/

why don’t I have a room? well, actually, I did. but it wasn’t even a room. just a partitioned ‘room’ with high cupboards as walls and a curtain for a door o_O it’s small but cosy. and I’ve loved it for 5 years as I grew in my room.

but this year, my parents just had to tear it down 🙁 so no room for me and I have to squeeze in with my three younger siblings. I never thought of it as ‘our room’ though so I still refer to it as ‘my siblings’ room’ instead.

and all the sawing and drilling and hammering has got dust in the house so maybe that’s why I was sneezing like hell today. it doesn’t help when I work at the office and it’s freezing cold o_O

anyway, went to watch rotk (yes again) with sam yesterday. rocking good as usual 😉 since the audience clapped so much after the legolas scene, I didn’t hear what gimli said to him after that. so yesterday I finally caught what he said. he said indignantly, “it still counts as one!” -rofl-

tomorrow’s christmas eve. anyone has big plans like last minute shopping? 🙂 I’m gonna watch rotk yet again ;D well, that is if I can get the tickets. lol.

I’m glad everyone liked their gifts I’ve sent 😉 if you haven’t received yet, do not panick. I’ve still got a number yet to send out. it’s hard retrieving your email addys =x

[edit] decided to add a nicer page for sfa. lol. if you still see a white page, refresh it a couple of times.

to janis: yeah. totally loved legolas’ solo part. the audience was clapping as he slid down gracefully. I nearly faint with delirium (sp?) -sighs wistfully and dreamily- lmao. [/edit]

ah yes. watched the nice 3 hr 15 min show last night and it really is totally awesome! minus the fact that I went to watch it at lido plus I was at the first few rows, the movie rocked.

but I admit the ending was rather slow. kinda draggy. and I thought that the war ended too fast. lmao. they should make the war longer. and wil was saying that he’s waited 3 bloody years for frodo to drop the ring into mount doom so let’s hurry and get over it -rofl-

listening to the soundtrack as I blog this and it’s really powerful. I can actually see the scenes as I hear the soundtrack. last year when I watched two towers (did I mention I watched it 11 times? lmao) and I got the leather cover soundtrack, whenever I listen to it, I can see the scenes in my mind, what’s gonna happen, what they’re doing. the soundtrack really is good. go get one! 😉

now I can’t wait for monday. will be watching it with sam and I’ve gotta book the tickets online now o_O if I try to buy on that day, it’s quite impossible as it’s always sold out. sold out! imagine that -grumbles-

oh, and I’m glad many of you liked the poem ;D I’ve got alot more and I’ll showcase them in my other domain in which I’m setting up now. hope to open it on christmas week.

and one more thing: voting for until forever awards have started so kindly vote for me pretty please? I’ll love ya millions for it if I win. heh. so please vote now~ 😉

a beach walk
13/12/03

I wish you would’ve held my hand
I wish you could’ve understand
right across the dampened sand
along the sandy beach

and along the sandy beach
it was like you were out of reach
so unwilling just to teach
teach me the way

hidden from the path that lay
bidding time from day to day
like there’s a huge price to pay
for this little miss

“wait” you tell this little miss
look in her eyes and plant a kiss
let her have this moment in bliss
et her understand

till today
how I wish that day
would turn out a different way

if you would’ve held my hand
stop and say you understand
right across the wet sand
and gave me a kiss

ack. yeah. back to poetry again o_O

guess what I’ve got -grins- yep yep yep *dance around* I’ve got the soundtrack for lotr: rotk. lalala~ and I’m gonna watch it this sat (whoopey doo!) with wil and ter and their friends I guess -gives a big cheesy smile- I can’t wait. but stupid stupid fir spoilt it by telling me legolas majored in only one scene -pouts- when I meet him to watch rotk again I’m gonna hammer him. I’ll freaking pound him to minced meat for telling me. I am so mad! -mock scowl-

been busy trying to make the layout for sfa but I realised I’ve got alot more to do 🙁 plus, I still have unprettyful to set up -sighs-

yes! I’m back! and it’s good to be back ;D

it’s really gonna take me a long while to recount what happened since I last blogged but I’ll try to keep it short (I know how is it like reading one whole bunch of boring stuff of another person’s doings =x)

after work on friday, I met up with jun wei coz he was gonna accompany me home to do my packing and go all the way to harbourfront to wait with me for my ride to sentosa. he brought an umbrella (coz it was raining. duh) and I offered to to put it in my bag. well, he carried my bag anyway. lol.

so I went home, packed my stuff and left. reached harbourfront and missed the 2150 ride. so we went to macd’s and he ate while I surfed the net free at the provided terminals. I have a whole bunch of snaps of that place but it’s all in wil’s cam and he’s gonna burn them all in a cd for me in a few day’s time so 7ners, sorry. no pics from my 5 megapixel cam at the moment. have to make do with the other 3 cams for the moment -sheepish-

I got the 2245 ride (the last ride too) and happily hopped on only to realised that jun wei had forgotten to take his umbrella back from me. that was number one.

reached the lovely resort (forgot the darn name of it again) and went to the room to find everyone either engrossed in the seagames or in the toilet making waterbombs (I’ll explain later) pretty soon, we had the present opening time for pk. I have a rather short (but big) video clip of it. the present was wrapped in – not one – but 18 layers of newspapers. but that’s not all -rofl- on each layer, there’s a task that she must complete in order to open the next layer. and it goes on..

pity jo threw away the list of forfeits she had to do. some were pretty funny. not to mention hilarious.

we slacked pretty much after that. ate cup noodles, talked alot, taught jo & pwen how to play bridge (goodness! jo was running on 56k!) played murderer and we could identify how each murderer ‘killed’.

pk was ‘drop like flies’, mine was ‘machine gun’ -chuckles-, pwen was ‘fast killer’, can’t remember the rest. but it was fun. and we talked alot. and we all learned and loved one new word – mafugly. I really hate vulgarities but this is really an exception. mutha effing ugly. esp cj. lmao. and we just can’t agree on how to spell it though. I’ve read through their blogs and some says it’s mafaugly or mefugly or whatever. wil says it should be muafugly o_O

pwen, per & I were the last ones standing. we didn’t sleep and went down to the lobby at 7.30 am hoping to play pool. tough luck. operation hours were from 9 am onwards so we took a morning stroll round the place. saw peacoks and did a really lame thing – we walked like the peacocks in the middle of the road in sentosa. really playing the fool but heck. it was fun 😉

per and I settled ourselves sleeping on the groundmat outside at the balcony as there wasn’t any space on the bed nor the mattress (I mean, imagine 8 girls in one cosy room) and we slept from 9 till 12.30.

wanted to go ktv but it doesn’t operate till 6 pm o_O so we decided to head for the beach. cj had to leave us *sob* and the weather was giving attitude man. it was drizzling. they had fun while boss and I looked after our belongings. and jun wei came along with more cup noodles. lol.

I reluctantly left boss to go take a walk with him. walked across palawan beach to the dolphin exhibit. didn’t have money to go in man. else we could’ve meet the dolphins! lol. crossed the bridge to the next ‘island’. we sat at one of the towers and watched some water jet-skiing (is it?) and later headed back to the beach where they were playing monkey with a volleyball.

well, jun wei had to rush off and he forgot his umbrella again. that was number two. we got booze at 7-eleven and we went back to mainland to eat pastamania for dinner. sof, jo & I wanted to catch the musical fountain show at 9.30 and found out that the last show was 8.40. grr..

went back to watch stir of echos on channel i. really good show. scared us all. lmao. and they had their vodka with 7-up. watched some chinese game show and after that, we decided to play that game using drinking cards as the forfeit. talked some more till we dropped off one by one..

sunday we half-packed and half-watched cartoons on tv -chuckles- yeah. justice leage and spiderman was on -grins- went back mainland and went to macd’s and we played the number game again. did hilarious forfeits. thank goodness I left earlier before I kena.

met jun wei for movie. watched crazy first love at tiong bahru plaza. really funny korean flick but I still loved my sassy girl better. heh. and he forgot his umbrella again -groans- number three.

if you’re wondering why the later part of the entry looks choppy, it’s coz I’m rushing o_O

so that’s the aftermath of the chalet 😉

I wish you would’ve held my hand
I wish you could’ve understand
right across the dampened sand
along the sandy beach..
