jolly christmas & awesome new year

2009 is coming to an end just around the corner... it past so fast. as always i hope the next year would be better than the previous! i spent my christmas day mostly at home. my mom, brother & i had a fantastic christmas dinner at the restaurant richard is working as sous chef. he can cook so marvellously!

here are my resolutions for 2010:

• overcome my oversensitivity
• exercise more often
• learn to bake
• learn a language

i guess that's all, for now. hope i will be able to fulfil these resolutions in the next year. cheers! :)

Some people are deluded by their looks

Just feel like saying that because of some people I met recently. Anyway, had a night out with my cousins yesterday after shopping the entire afternoon. My feet were so sore from the endless walking and wearing my new black heels. I love my new heels! (right, bimbo) They look like a corset tied around my leg with the laces and black leather material. =) I also got a black toga dress for the wedding next week. It took me so much time to find, only after numerous try-ons. I also got other stuff like perfume and makeup stuff but I shan't go on about them in detail. I'm kinda disappointed because I didn't get to buy many clothing. Ugh!

And shit! My colleagues are persuading my to stay. I can only say I'm 50-50, because I don't want to find another job and have to adapt to a new environment within a short span of time. And, I probably won't be able to find another job which pays as much as my current one because the hospitality line pays low for rank and file employees. Also, the biggest problem, has slowly been resolving ever since we had an open and honest talk some time ago, I think last week?... I can't reach a decision!!! So now what?!

Ranttt

Work has been pretty annoying lately. First, I think that I made a mistake joining my current company. Cos I hate it when people call me on my off days all the time.. and I hate that work occupies my mind so much even after the day is over. I also hate my colleague who is a mean, hypocritical, petty and impatient bitch. I wouldn't care about her existence in the office if this job didn't require a long time(say about a year) to be able to work independently. So, thinking of the future nine months or so that I'm going to have to depend on her experience and face her every Mondays to Fridays has been turning me off for the past month. So, I'm really considering resigning. I mean, life's too short to have to deal with such a person. Also, I guess I'm not really excited about this job anymore. I'd rather work a more 'slack' as in relaxed job rather than a stressed-out job like my current with almost the same salary. Also, not to forget that this job has lacking staff welfare and benefits.

So, I'm probably going to turn in my resignation letter first thing tomorrow morning. Then, I'll have to explain to her why and blah blah blah.. Whatever, one more month and I'm out of there. That's definitely something to be rejoiced over. And, get a new job, perhaps on a part-time basis, for the next few months.

f*ck, i'm nice

In this dog eat dog world today, it doesn't pay to be nice sometimes. I learnt it the hard way. I'm not saying that I'm going to turn into a mean girl tomorrow but after much experience, I strongly feel that I'd rather be not nice to protect myself.

Retail Therapy

I caught 500 Days of Summer yesterday with my bf. It's kinda interesting because the movie progresses by going back and forth the days of 'Summer'. But, I didn't like the ending at all because it was kinda boring at the end.

Anyway, I had my favourite Ding Tai Fung's Xiao Long Bao and Egg Fried Rice. I only like dining at the Wisma Atria branch because I think they whip up a divine plate of egg fried rice. The xiao long bao is second on my list. First is a little well-known chinese ramen eatery at Chinatown's Smith Street. The store is filled with loads of pictures of the head cook and customers holding the long ramen dough. Their xiao long bao is wrapped and steamed a la minute. The meat explodes with juice as you bite into it and the skin is so thin that it's translucent. Not to mention that the savoury juice in the 'bao' tastes so good you'll want to order some more.

So, I was so beaten up(not literally) yesterday by the time I went home because I did lots of walking and shopping. Woohoo! I went to one of my favourite stores, Muji, and got some skincare and cosmetic products from the department store. I think I signed up for three memberships yesterday, namely Muji(minimum purchase of S$100), Shiseido, and Paul and Joe(min. purchase of S$50). At Muji, I bought a light grey button-up dress for S$63 that's unbelieveably comfortable to wear. It's probably one of the most comfortable clothing I've worn in my life and no, I'm not exaggerating for real. I also bought a water bottle that I wanted since I saw it in the online Muji catalogue. It's good for storing both hot and cold water. I got it for S$33. It's kinda expensive for a simple water bottle but I think it's worth it because I like the simple design and the bottle is good for maintaining hot water temperature above 58 degrees celcius for 6 hours, and cold water temperature below 11 degrees celcius for 6 hours. I also got some toiletries that I was running out of like cotton pads, which I use for toner and eye make-up remover, cosmetic paper(simple blotter), and a mini packet of dried minestrone soup contents. It's very small and convenient to bring around for travelling or picnics. You just have to add 160ml of hot water to the packet of dried contents in a cup or bowl and in a minute, viola! you have hot minestrone soup. I wanted to try it so I got only one packet. They have other soups like corn potage, cabbage, etc.

I got some skincare products from Shiseido's Pureness line because my skin is combination and acne-prone at the T-zone area. Because I recently got bangs so my forehead has become like, the perfect spot of acne. Gross. So, I couldn't stand it and decided that my current skincare wasn't good enough. I did some research online before buying the Shiseido products below.

Step:

1) Foaming cleanser - it does not foam directly from the pump. Instead, you have to lather with adequate amount of water to get the foam.

2) Softener (toner) - saturate a cotton pad with 3 pumps.

3) Moisturizer - pump 2 times on fingers and work through the face.

Next up, Paul and Joe. I absolutely adore the designs of the case and bottle.

A pressed powder compact and nail enamel. I did some research before I got these. The pressed powder in 04 (purple) is good for brightening and light touch-ups, as well as reducing the yellow tone that is prominent in most Asians' skin tone. It's S$68 and you don't buy the compact separately unlike some other department store make-up brands. The refill for the pressed powder is S$45. They have other shades of pressed powder to suit your need and liking. The compact case is versatile as you can replace it with 2-way cake as well. The nail enamel is $22 and in shade 05. It is a neutral shade with pink undertone.

I spent over S$300 yesterday and it was worth it. I haven't shopped in a while and since I just got my first paycheck too.

boo

I think I'm a 'scary-cat' and an introvert. And, I don't like that about myself. But, it's difficult to change because I've been shy my whole life and am always the one who waited for others to speak to me first before I had the guts to speak to them. It's nothing great to talk about at all and I'm just whining because I find it so hard to change and become more out-going and spontaneous. I'm only really comfortable with my immediate family, my best friend of nine years, and my boyfriend of almost two years.

I'll try my best to become more sociable because I don't like the introverted side of myself.

My weekend

I love rainy days when I get to stay at home all warm and cuddled up under my blanket; surfing the net with a cup of hot chocolate right beside. It was raining cats and dogs in the morning when I woke up from the thunder. I like the sound of car tyres swishing as they roll over a puddle of water. Rainy days make me want to escape into my imagination. They also make me more calm because of the cool air and the fresh smell of grass.

I've been working for almost a month now. Days seem to speed past while I'm working and before I know it, the weekend is here.

I like photography, though I am not great at it, yet. I like pictures of almost-empty streets, black and white, and people. I must and should use my 450D very soon or it will grow old in lonesome.

I'm twenty-one and sometimes, I wonder if I have missed too much in life.

I'm feeling frustrated now. Ugh!

simple girl

When I think of Sunday, the first thing that comes to my mind is 'family day'. But, I don't really like Sunday afternoons. I don't even like to go out on Sundays because it's so crowded with foreign workers everywhere, especially in town. Sunday afternoons at my place consist of brunch and lots of lazing around. I prefer Saturdays even though it's crowded out there as well. At least there are more youngsters and shops close later for late-night shopping. Why I'm ranting about Sundays is because I just returned from a cruise over the weekend and I find it's too short to thoroughly enjoy myself. It seems like time had flown away at the blink of an eye. Thank goodness I like my job, so I don't feel that grumpy.

Anyway, I haven't been surfing the net for a few days and today, I went through most of the Muji shopping website that is in Japanese. Just clicking around and surfing the online catalogue, I totally heart Muji... well, since some time ago. I absolutely like how simple and functional their products are. Though I've only shopped at the store a couple of times, I am their fan. I've already planned to go shopping there once I get my first pay from my new job. =) Their clothes are comfortable, versatile and of simple design. I'm already planning to get a few tops and dresses, a bag, maybe shoes, leggings....... I can't buy as many stuff as I want because most of their products are rather expensive. I'm not only planning on shopping for apparels but they do offer some functional and reasonably-priced goods like 'hot & cold mobile mug', which I saw from the website and is what I've been looking for for some time. They also sell nice, white soap bottles which you can pour in your cleansing liquid wash or shampoo. So, you can just buy the refill packages(which is comparatively cheaper to purchasing a new bottle) of the bathing wash and pour it in. It looks nicer when guests come over, in my opinion. I'm totally into the simple style now and am kind of off the tracks of fashion these days since I do believe 'less is more'.

Anyway, yeahh... I've been working for a week now. My new job that I mentioned in the last post... naturally I'm still not familiar with most of the works there and I hope I will have the determination to continue trying my best no matter what the task is.


P.S.: Go ahead and check out the (only available in)Japanese online store at http://www.muji.net/ and try clicking around the left sidebar to view the different catagories of products Muji has to offer.

I just started working at the local tv station two days ago. Today is official company off day, and so is next Tuesday. So that means I don't get to work for 5 days until Wednesday because Monday is a public holiday for Hari Raya. Not so awesome for me, because I really wanna learn more and not get more off days. I followed my colleague to the wardrobe and make-up room yesterday. Saw a few well-known celebrities inside and felt slightly intimidated, since it's my first time there. I'm not a confirmed employee yet until probably next month, I hope. My department's work in kinda interesting, in my opinion. A little talent scouting, a little of pulling strings, and searching high and low for credible and suitable people for acting small roles. You get the drift?

Hope everything goes well and I will be a confirmed staff, thus get my own project soon. =)

Grossed out!

I HATE INSECTS AND ABOVE ALL, COCKROACHES!!! My Mom found several baby cockroaches in the cupboard under the kitchen sink yesterday. She believes there is a nest there. How in the world did they get there?!? That is still a mystery to us since neither my Mom, me or my brother opens that cupboard or use the garbage dump in it. My Mom sprayed baygon in it and let them suffocate inside. Later on, one of the baby cockroaches tried to squeeze out of the cupboard, in vain. Because my Mom happened to be standing outside when it tried to escape. I suggest we seal that 'cockraoch nest cupboard' for good. I think there may be a hole where they enter. They are the most disgusting insect species I've seen before and it gives me the creeps just thinking about them now. Eewwwww! :S

Love & Hate Relationship

After a mental breakdown yesterday, I've decided to cheer myself up by talking about some of the stuff I (really) like.

First of all, colours. I don't really have a favourite colour. I've read in an article before that the colour(s) you like can be shown by the colour of clothing you have most in your wardrobe. I have almost all colours of clothing in my room except orange, so there goes! Orange is definitely not a colour I like. I have more black clothing and I admit I do love black. I've recently taken a liking to gray and navy blue as well. Not exactly a big fan of pink, unlike majority of girls.

Some stuff I really like are comedies and fantasy movies, travelling, food, shopping, photography (though I'm not quite good at it, yet). I'm currently watching the first season of Mad Men. I'm into two episodes and I already like it. I love shopping for furniture, other miscellaneous household stuff and groceries. Therefore, I love supermarkets and furniture stores, especially IKEA. I own a Canon D400 which I bought with my one-month salary. I've been to several countries like Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Thailand, and Korea. I like good food but I always anticipate airplane food. Wierd.

First Love

First love happened at a young age for me. Could it have been LOVE? I don't think so. It's 'puppy love'. We were too young to understand love at that point of time. His name was Chin Yong and we started off as enemies. We loathed each other but all of a sudden, *kaboom!* well, he liked me first. We were both 12 years old and at the end of our primary school lives. We were headed for different secondary schools so it wasn't going to be easy keeping it up. At that time, I would consider it as difficult as a long-distance relationship now. We went out a couple of times with another couple like a double date. Yeah, we had those way back. I have a vague memory of him waiting for me after classes ended outside my secondary school when we just started with the first year. I remember feeling damn awkward.. maybe it was because I was going through puberty or something... Anyway, I can't really remember how we ended the relationship. Though I kinda miss the innocent and pure-hearted puppy love now, which I think everyone experiences only ONCE in their lifetime. It was so sweet! :)

It was YUM!

Richard's b'day bash took place last night until about 2am at his workplace, OneTwentysix. Great place to hang out and perfect gathering to catch up on politics at my old work-place, where some of them are still working. Hehe.

What goes around comes around, doesn't it?! My time at that hellhole was pretty miserable so I have always been glad to have left 2 months+ ago. :) And now I wanna talk about it because I'm actually feeling happy at the thought of what the fuck is going on there. Let's give this person a name.. oh! oh! how about poopy? The word 'nincompoop' just came to my mind thinking about this certain personality at work. Of course, there are better words for description but let's just leave it at poopy.

Poopy has more experience that I had when I joined as a full-timer. Poopy's expertise at work includes backstabbing (could get a A+ if this could be graded), badmouthing behind others' back, bootlicking superiors (almost to a literal extent), behaving like a tyrant and dickhead.

Poopy has a few close friends at work but who the heck knows (or cares) if they backstab and badmouth one another, since they are birds of a feather (flock together). Nearing the end of my time there, I concluded that Poopy is partially responsible for my miserable plight there. I used to have a classmate who is just like Poopy and who turned our normal class into a series of unfortunate events. There's always one (or more) of this kind anywhere you study or work, isn't it?! Politics is something no one can run away from when it involves people. I wouldn't say I'm totally innocent about the badmouthing part but I didn't and wouldn't go the wrong way so far just to reach goals at work, for example, getting a promotion.

Poopy got whatever Poopy wanted and I thanked God I left this unhealthy working environment. There are so many more things going through my mind as I think about my time there but some can't be expressed in words. Now, karma finds Poopy and the awesome thing about karma is, no one can escape from it. It finds you no matter what. I wouldn't go into details what happened. Nothing serious like life and death but I'd say just a little punishment and Poopy sure got a taste of Poopy's own medicine.

Life's great! :)

Hey Sarawakian!

I came back a couple of hours ago from Sibu and am drained of almost all vitality from the flight, bus and taxi rides. We left on Saturday, the 19th, to Johor Bahru to catch a 2.25pm flight & we totally missed it. First, poor time management. Second, crazy jam at the customs. Third, taxi driver's fastest speed was 60. Three & a half, it had to rain heavily all of a sudden and the driver, who was probably in his 70's, couldn't see much (or at all) and drove at like, 20. It was so maddening when we realized we missed our damn flight.

We didn't have much of a choice and headed to a budget motel near the airport for the night. Though, we did have delicious Indian food at the store beside the motel for dinner and went there again for roti prata the next morning. Hated the motel & was really glad to leave for the airport at noon. Feel great to be on the flight to Sibu which should have been the previous day affair. Anyway, Sibu was good fun and relaxation.

Went to feed fishes and turtles at a park and ate yummy local food such as kampua and laksa, which in my opinion, is very different and nicer than Singapore's version. Slept in as usual but not as late as when I am in Singapore. Made a few plans for the future and people we know kept asking when we get married, which is not in any of our plans though.

Kinda regret the trip was so short(4D3N) but there ain't so many 'leave'(vacation days) to take. Our next trip will be in December for the wedding and time flies, so it'll be sooner than I think.

A brand new week

又是一个星期的开始。星期一总是非常漫长的一天。这星期要开始怒力找工作了。下星期或许会去马来西亚几天。
昨天又到Ikea逛逛，买了一个小枕头和花盆。因为小仙人掌越长越大。

HELLO!

So, today I bought another book by my favourite Japanese artist, GMZZ (initials). This is the third one I bought and I hope to collect all her books. She expresses herself so well through her drawing and it's so pleasant to read.

Had lunch at Cedele: tomato bacon crostinis and lemon butter salmon with salad & potato. The salmon was pretty good and the crostinis (=baguette) were so-so. Browsed through some interior design books while waiting for Richard to get out for break-time.

Life comes in so many flavours. My favourite is sweet, as caramel. :)

Sawadee-ka

I love my trip to Bangkok, Thailand last week. It was fun, relaxing and I heart travelling! We stayed at a nice hotel and had yummy American+international breakfast buffet every morning. Also, the view from the room was spectacular, and shopping for clothes, accessories and shoes was cheap. We ate tom yum soup almost every day. Tom yum = love!

I guess we weren't be travelling much until December when we will return to Sibu for a wedding. I'm looking forward to it! At the moment, I'm just looking for a job at a slow pace. I don't want to rush into it because once you start working, you won't get such a long break after that.

Nothing much

I just recovered from a sore throat and am really glad. I have been staying home the past few days to recuperate, mostly watching tv, surfing the net, and drinking lotsa water.

It's Richard's off day tomorrow so I will finally go out to town to have a meal at Pasta Cafe. I am craving the Slipper Lobster Penne so much! And, also ice-cream waffle with cream, fruits and chocolate sauce!!! :9

Then, probably we will catch a movie. Initially, I wanted to watch 'Knowing' but Richard already watched it and commented that it wasn't good. So, either '17 Again' or 'Handsome Suit'; latter seems so hilarious! I need a good laugh.

Life's great!

It has been 5 days of unemployment and I'm really enjoying my life right now. It may seem a little meaningless with nothing much to do everyday. Let's see... for the past 5 days, I went

• clubbing with friends at Arena
• experimented with cooking
• had a sleepover
• watched a few all-time favourite chic-flicks
• spent family time
• gave my Mom a birthday dinner treat (we had teppanyaki, which is my Mom's favourite!)
• slept in everyday

It has been so awesome. I'm absolutely loving it. The only thing I wish for now is that all the unrest in Bangkok will simmer down because I will be having a holiday in Bangkok mid-May. Woohoo!!!

Madness

Some days, I leave the office two hours after my shift is supposed to end and have co-workers telling me, "So fast ah, always going back first". What the fuck. Do you think I'm a no-life workaholic or have an irreversible addiction to my job! These days, even working two to three hours overtime, people still say I'm going back first so fast. It's ridiculous and really pisses me off when I hear that. And this happens because there are phychos at work who leave four, five hours sometimes. I get this just because... I have a life? I don't even get paid for staying back! What happened to these people? I believe they used to be normal people but now, they've changed into 101% phychos with adnormal judgements on time. :S

I'm so tired. Heck this job.

Life's A Drag

I need help! Seriously. I sooooo wanna get out of here. I wanna stay in a country with four seasons. Then, there'll always be new outfits (for the upcoming season) to put together and look forward to wear. Then, there'll be the romantic atmosphere of falling autumn leaves and fun ski trips. Ugh! This is my goal - work in a country with four seasons!

Work is so-so. I met an elderly couple at work today and they mentioned they were going to Tioman, which is Pulau Tioman(an island off Malaysia). They were going to take the airplane directly from Singapore to Tioman. I went there last year and couldn't get the seats for this flight and had to take a treacherous and horrible route to reach the island.

I took a coach bus from a reknown travel agent and the service was crap. The guide was rude and unconcerned about his tour group and the pit stop was disgusting! Everything about the pit-stop put me off especially the twenty over flies flying around my legs and the food and the floor. Eew! If I wasn't starving I wouldn't even get out of the coach. Then to top that gross and long journey to the ferry terminal in Malaysia, my friend got into an argument with the guide, who was a complete asshole, and I was honestly scared out of my wits because 1. we were outnumbered (just the two of us), 2. it was my first time travelling without my family.

During the last and most heated up argument, I just wanted to call my mom and get my arse back to Singapore because the whole holiday mood was ruined. And, it was a few hours by ferry to reach Tioman. It's really kampong but the resort we stayed at was huggggeeee. There was a golf course and lots of open green land. We did snorkling(totally awesome!) for the first time and I am totally fascinated. I think if I had a change to go diving, I would practically jump out of my skin in excitement! (just exaggerating!)

My friend can ride a motorcycle so we rented one and rode around the island and had a good look at the residents house and had lunch at a local restaurant. The pace of living style was much slower than Singapore and it's what I'd call 'the simple life'. I'd like a taste of simple life someday but now, I'm just focused on reaching my goal. :)

21! 21! 21! 21! 21

Hurray to adulthood!~ I'm 21 already. Being 21 spells independence and freedom, though I'm just still the same person like I was the day before. I'm enjoying 'being an adult' but on the other hand, I just don't wanna grow up and take responsibility of my life and BE mature.

These are exactly the reasons why I like to steal into my own dreamland and reminisce of my childhood - living life carefreely with no worries about politics with people and my future, only caring about having fun and watching cartoons.

It was the best time of my life so far! :D

Anyway, I had the best birthday ever. I'm not really into making-a-huge-fuss-over-birthday-celebrations kinda person so I just had a cosy gathering with my family at Prego. We've been going there for special occasions since I was young and I know that's one place I won't regret spending my 21st birthday at because I have some nice memories there.

WAH LAO!

I'm working on Valentine's Day. To top that off, I kept doing stupid mistakes and was getting scolded (like I had killed his pet) half the time I was working. Cheebye kia really pisses me off until I had the tendency to whack him with the telephone and fart in his fucking face. Argh!!!

*****

Anyhow, I'm going to Sarawak next month. Woohoo!~ I need a break away from this island of concrete jungle and menacing co-workers(some). If you're thinking, 'Not happy quit lor!' Then allow me to inform you. Fuck recession!!!

Gong Xi Fa Cai

Year of the Chinese zodiac - Ox. I was born in year of the Dragon, by the way. I like Chinese New Year - the food, snacks, red packets, and being away from work (=reality). I love escaping into my dreamland, just doing what I enjoy and not having anything to worry about.

My 21st birthday's just around the corner and I'm frustrated how I should celebrate it since it seems to be generally viewed as a 'big event' to turn 21. Frankly, all I need is a nice dinner with my family and close friends and maybe a party later in the evening. But well, I'm always game for a party (as long as I'm not working morning shifts the following day, that is)!

Birthday wishlist? HAH! Here goes... Hmmm:

Ipod touch? or Nano.
Sony digital camera (at least 8 megapixels, in red or black)
Tattoo...

I'm rather content in the aspect of materialism so far.

Casanova

I felt it and I still do. It's a repulsive yet magnetic feeling, which is why I'm so confused. I keep thinking about it. I'm losing my smiles, my logic, and my ability to decide what's right and what's wrong of me to do. I hate the emotions it brings upon me and how these emotions overpower my sensibility and judgement. It's a love-hate relationship but I want to help you. I've decided that I don't want you to be the only one miserable. I'll help you move on, even if it jeopardizes my relationship with others, and even if the aftermath will leave me more miserable than before. It's time, so take the last I have to offer because life doesn't give us many chances.



I saw her. She was strolling in the neighbourhood, her petite and familiar frame, bringing back nostalgic memories of my childhood. I don't have much memories of being a child. They are probably hidden in the deeper parts of my mind, the thousands (and millions?) of them, which will flash through my mind and remind me of my life when it's time for me to go. Her family stayed two stories above mine in the same block. I was practically raised by her since I was two years old as both my parents were (and still are) working during the day. My nan reminds me everytime without fail that there ARE people out there who genuinely care and do not expect anything from me in return. That is why I always feel warm-hearted when I see my grandmother and her. Of course, my other family members as well, though others could sometimes get a little too critical or judgemental when I say or do unconventional things. But back to the topic. To be 100% honest to myself, the only people in this world who genuinely care for and love me sincerely from the heart is my family and I love them. I'd be nothing without them. I can imagine how depressed I'd be. So, a reminder to every out there (not that some of you may need it).. Treat the ones who love you and expect nothing in return the way they deserve. Because you will never know when you may lose the chance to give in return. God bless my loved ones!

Happy New Year. I know it's more than a little late now to be wishing that but better late than never, right?! Year 2009 has brought along changes in my life. More significantly is I'm doing cross-training at Concierge and will be until March. Everybody seems to be asking me he same question: "What are you going to do after that?" To be honest, I don't know. It's not a secret or anything but I seriously have no idea. Why would I want to decide about that now when I've just started with my training. And I can't deny the fact how annoying it is when people just assume things by themselves. I find it absolutely pointless to talk to someone who does not even listen to what I'm saying and just assumes my answer to their questions. If YOU think you can read minds so well then why stay with a job you're not satisfies with and go work as something more than the ordinary?!!

I went to Zirca with a few friends yesterday and although it was ladies' night, the club was surprisingly empty. There were people, maybe about thirty.. but the crowd was boring. If you didn't know, Zirca was formerly MOS. We hanged out, drank, danced the night away. It had been such a long time since I went clubbing, I enjoyed myself with my friends. When you're on the dance floor it's so easy to forget about all the stress from life, work, relationships(if any), etc. At about 3.30am we left Zirca and went for some food at McD's before heading home. We slept in the taxi, all three of us. We were exhausted from a good girls' nightout and I'm pretty sure we'll organize another trip soon.

My favourite time of the year is from December to February because of the numerous occasions in these three months. I like Christmas and presents. I like new beginnings, that's why January. I like Valentine's Day and presents and my birthday and presents. This year, I'll be legally turning into an adult and that is both great and somehow saddening at the same time. I wanna play, I don't wanna get serious with my life, I don't want to turn older. But, being 21 is like receiving an invisible pass to be unleashed from the control of my parents. Muahahahaa...!!!

This is totally my favourite time of the year now! Ciao!~
