When in 2010 [Jan. 7th, 2010|02:57 pm]
[Current Mood | excited]

5 more weeks of school, and I am done with my second year in RP. I cannot believe I will be graduating in only a year, I.CANNOT.WAIT.My last year's gonna be real short, I'd only be spending the last  4 months in campus cuz I'd be out for internship for the first 6 months. Speaking of which, I don't know if I am looking forward to being an intern. Whenever I have to start something new, I get cold feet. Like how I was afraid to start school in RP and wanted to continue working for Ralph Lauren, goodness I can't believe I felt/thought that way. It feels like I am taking another step into growing up each time I start a new chapter in my life and I am not ready to grow up just yet. Wellllll, such is life.

Anyways, 2009 went by really fast but I'm glad its over. 2010 seems more promising( i said this last year and it kinda backfired), or at least I hope. It's gonna be Hong Kong in February with my BB, Internship from March-August, Holiday till October, School from October-February, Graduation. I hope 2010 passes as fast as 2009. Oh and my driving starts next week, I can't imagine myself driving, like seriously.

2010's resolutions:

1. Donate more to Charity.
2. Be a better friend.
3. Appreciate more of the little things in life.
4. Spend my money WISELY.
5. Study.
6. Not be so judgmental.
7. Get a good GPA
8. Smile more.

I can proudly say I actually did comply with my 2009 resolutions(: How many people can say that?

Okay sooo, I've not touched this space in a really long time. School is starting to get quite hectic these days! 10 straight weeks of school is really draining every ounce of energy out of me. I had to get my PP report done, pass my BTT, pass BTT again, sign up for FTT, sign up for Practical lessons which only starts in mid january, get my PP presentation done, PP assessment on the 15th of December. And on top of that, I am taking up Korean language lessons! But that i don't mind, i'm actually looking forward to it.

And Christmas is coming! Yet again. This year went by real fast. I'm actually glad 2009 is going to be over soon cuz 2010 sounds really promising! Hong Kong with Michelle in February, Internship in March (goodbye RP for 6 months), Driving lessons, Driving test (hopefully, i'll pass), back to school again, then it'd be graduation in early 2011(:

So in my free time, I hang with my homies Michelle and Elaine, and now, hopefully, more of Patt. And of course, more korean dramas, right michelle? Oh and did i mention how much i loveeeeee my class this semester! I laugh so much everyday I think I am starting to develop abs.

I love the way my life is now.

[Current Music |Guns and Ammo - Minus the Bear]

I realised that when i stand, i should stand still and not have this constant habit of swinging my hands, because that results into me slamming my hands right at the wall.And it hurts. So not more swinging of hands. period.

So Michelle, aka my partner in crime, is sick. So am i. We sure do make a pair. She's down with the flu, which was what i had a few weeks back. And as for me, my feet and hands are itching from some allergy. But don't get me wrong, it doesn't sound as nasty as you might think it is. Idk i find myself chomping down on loads of ice cream lately( as we speak, i have my own tub of horlicks ice cream from island creamery), but i doubt i'm allergic to that cuz i would have figured that out a long time ago, and, Allergy to ice cream = no more island creamery. I hear Michelle going, ' Oh whatever shall we do Caroline?' *insert sarcasm here*

So whatever Kanye did at the VMA's was ultimately low. So Kanye, if there is a one in a million chance( cuz you know, i'm not as famous as you) that you would come across this space, here's to you:

Dear Mr. Kanye West,

As to what you did to Taylor swift at the VMA's, I can't help but think you did not get enough love from your folks as you were growing up. Whatever you did just made Beyonce and Taylor look soooooooo much more mature than you asshole. You're such an ugly fag who doesn't even deserve to be on national television. Even Obama called you a JACKASS. In your face bitch. You should join Jon gosselin and Michael Lohan in the douchebag olympics. You won't have to put up that much of a fight to clinch the gold.

What kind of name is Kanye anyway??

Anyway, moving on. I WISH i was in NYC now, there's just so much going on. Fashion week and the VMA's. Well it's not like i would be invited to any of these events, but it would be nice to just look at it from afar?

milk and honey [Aug. 24th, 2009|08:46 pm]
[Current Mood | sick]

I turned 18 last week. I can do more when I'm 18!(: Now I say this every year I get older, but this time, I really can in fact do more, like for real. There's this whole list of things I was looking forward to before I actually turned 18:

1. Set up a PayPal account (expand my already massive world of online shopping)
2. Get a credit card ( I already have debit, but credit has more privileges,yes?)
3. Get into clubs without the possibility of being turned away by the bouncers(never actually happened to me before, but still)
4. Buy alcohol and cigarettes ( Irrelevent considering the fact I don't smoke and am not an alcoholic. Idk why I even thought of this)
5. Get my driver's licence(!!!)
6. Buy 4D
7. Book my own airplane tickets( actually, you might not need to be 18 to do this, idk)

So anyway, way before my birthday, I already planned to dedicate the whole entire day of my birthday to EAT. Yes I am not kidding. Waffles and maple syrup for breakfast, hokkien mee for lunch, carrot cake for dinner and pasta for supper. But then I realised that 18th of august was a tuesday and I would have school on that day, so I decided to have my day of no restriction to unhealthy food the following day which was a Wednesday. But noooo, that day had to be the start of all my UT's. Therefore, Michelle decided that I have this day of eating during the holidays. Speaking of which, it's only a day away. One last UT tomorrow and school's out. And thus, I have a list of things i want/hope to accomplish by the end of the holidays:

1. Pack my room.
2. Look for missing lipstick (Hopefully i'll find while in the midst of packing my room)
3. Look for missing clothes.
4. Have a eating competition with Michelle and Hanis.
5. Attempt to finish a foot log sandwhich at subway with Michelle.
6. Start on PP report.
7. Finish PP report.
8. Apply, study and pass my Basic theory test.
9. When #8 is accomplished, apply for driving lessons.
10. SHOP (!!!)
11. Make cheesecake.
12. Make Pizza and waffles for Michelle.
13. Ride Gmax with Elaine, Pattrick and Michelle. 

As you can see, my list involves alot of eating. And my day dedicated to eating doesn't really compliment it, does it?

Anyhow, I wanna thank those who bought my gifts and bothered to wish me on my birthday. It really is, much much appreciated(:

[Current Music |Carol of the bells - The bird and the bee]

For some reason, i couldn't remember my password to my livejournal. So i kept trying what i thought my password was. And just as i remembered my password, livejournal banned my IP address. Who the hell gets banned from their own livejournal. Unfortunately, me, in this case.

Over the somewhat long weekend, i have been thinking, as to why people get so surprised  when someone says, 'oh my dad can cook' or 'my husband does all the cooking at home'. How is this even close to ammusing when almost all the chefs at restaurants and cafes happen to be male. Not forgetting famous chefs like Jamie Oliver and Michael Smith from chef at home. Don't ask me why i think about stuff like that when there are other things to worry about, like world hunger. I'm just random like that.

So the pass few weeks has been really hectic. Found my grandma at the hospital. ( completely complicated, don't wanna go there) On the a lighter note, August is here(: Another 2 more weeks and i'm done with school. I cannot believe that the day after the 18th of august is the official start to all my UT's. Strangely enough, not an ounce of me feels stressed about my UT's.

My grandma is missing. My grandma who has dementia has been missing since yesterday morning. The woman who brought me up is missing. I have no idea where she slept last night. This is the second time in 2 weeks. She does not deserve this.

So i met up with Ian, Evan and Jordan last week. I love it when Ian goes,  'So how's your life man', that is why i enjoy talking to him, he's the only one who actually bothers. He then tells me about the different tattoos he plans to get and how he's actually thinking of becoming priest. That would actually be really interesting. A priest with tattoos. Is that even allowed?

Anyways, the holidays went by real fast. It was flled tons of 'first-times'. I walked into sim lim for the first time, i didn't like it though. Ice-skating was a first, Mustafa was a first, tau huay was a first, finishing a book in 3 days was a first. Okay no i take that back, i once finshed a book in 2 hours. Going into the national library was a first. So today's the 18th. I turn 18 in exactly 2 months! ( HINT HINT HINT MICHELLE, HINT) 

      

   
THIS, is so much more amusing then class.

This is why [Jun. 7th, 2009|12:02 am]
[Current Mood | sick]
[Current Music |The Bird and The Bee]

So i've been sick, for the past 2 weeks. I was getting better, until I had almost everything peanut butter. Peanut butter milkshake, peanut butter pancakes, peanut butter lattes... So far, I've lost my voice twice. And I've seen the doctor twice. And finally after 2 days of "resting", I decided to let myself out of the house and met Elaine and Michelle. And they sure do NOT know how to treat the sick. In one day, I got called dumb( i am getting smarter, michelle said so) and deaf( my ears are blocked because of the flu) by Michelle and also was hit in the head by her and was teased and laughed at by the both of them like a million gazillion times. And after much yelling and screaming, I think I'll be losing my voice for the third time, again.

Me: Omg why do both of you have to make me shout just to put my point across!
Michelle: Shut up Caroline! Didn't the doctor tell you to do that. (technically no,he just told me not to talk too much. he didn't actually use the word, shut up)

But anyway, this week was really productive. Michelle and i did so much new stuff. We headed down to mustafa for the very first time in our lives and I'm actually quite amazed with that place. When we stepped in, I was like, wow... It has like everything and anything. And almost everything there is a bargain. It's like we went in there not having anything to buy and suddenly I'm like going, 'idk what this is but it looks nice so i'm gonna get it', and apparently I say that quite alot, according to Michelle. So we walked out of mustafa with 20 bucks worth of stuff. I bought a pink sponge because i thought it was really pretty and because i've not seen a pink sponge before.  And after that, we had steamboat for dinner, which was actually  Michelle's first time trying steamboat and I'm proud to say she loves it, I feel as if I've accomplished something big. And today, was the first time I tried tau huay! I've tried the drink but not the toufu form. I wouldn't exactly say I love it, it kinda has a quiet taste to it. I remember the days I used to think tau huay and soy bean were 2 different things, like I used to think tau huay was sweet toufu or something along those lines.

So 3 very important people in my life celebrates their birthday today. Happy Birthday Pattrick Moosa, Gwendolyn Tan and Andrew Long! Have a great birthday loves(:

I highly regret not listening to Michelle the other day when she told me not to drink that huge cup of diet coke. Idk if that's the cause but now my throat is sore, my nose is starting to run and fever is building up. I only came to school because of UT after class. I have no idea how i'm gonna survive through the day. I feel so adamant to leave but i know i shouldn't/can't. Argh, okay i'm skipping school tomorrow. Decision made.

Holidays starts in a week. Time really does fly. They say time passes faster as you grow older. How true that is, i really have no clue.

So today is Sunday, and i went shopping just now.(this is sooo rare, i usually sleep through my sundays). Anyway, i went into Coach to get Gwen her present( i hope you like it!) and i saw these pair of shoes that were to dieee for. Okay not till that extreme but it would come in handy for my lazy-day wardrobe(clothes that practically match anything and everything and clothes i tend to dress myself in what i'm in those 'i-can't-be-bothered' moods). I was gonna settle for them, but noooooo, they didn't have size. ARGGGGGGGGHHHH. Not to mention, my dad was in a very generous mood. Such a downerr. Tsssssk.

Moving on, I was watching travel and living the other day and they were showing some programme about a tattoo competition. And it surprises me that tattooos were only made legal in New York in 1997. Before that, everything was underground. I mean seriously, New York? 1997? If you were to say tattoos were only made legal in Malaysia in 1997, I would definitely believe that. But New York? At that time, New York was one of the many screwed up cities in the world, pardon me when I say it still is, apart from it being all glamorous with the fabulous shopping.  

Anyway, UT tomorrow so i'm gonna try and cramp in some last minute studying.

HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY MICHELLE! I wanna let you know what an awesome friend you have been all this while, despite how big of a bitch you can be some times and not forgetting how you endlessly make fun of me, i do still love love love you. I wanna thank you for being one of the many few who thinks that 'Caroline is a very smart girl' because the things she can come up with are things no one else would ever think of. Though the things we like and the way we think are worlds apart, i'm so glad that we get along pretty well.I hope you have an amazing birthday and a very fruitful year ahead of you. Here's your birthday present!(i'm sorry i could only get you one out of three. Gu junpyo is too busy and the egg tarts couldn't last that long)

I told becca to go watch boys over flowers but warned her that she must not/never like Jihoo cuz he's mine and Junpyo is Michelle's.( Yes i know this is like uber juvenile but c'mon, we're teenage girls, we go through phases like this. and BTW, i've diverted my attention to this other movie, High School Musical is long gone, FOR NOW). So anyway, today, becky tells me,' oh and btw carol, i like jihoo'. And this was the result:

School has begun,argh. I have been dreading this day every since the holidays started. Exactly a month ago i was in Perth shopping along Hay street and a week ago i was in HongKong, Macau to be exact. And now, school. This is so depressing. In times like this, i wish my parents had enrolled me in home-schooling.

On the bright side, i get to see Michelle and Elaine more!(: And unlike them, i don't do computing and science anymore((: AND i dont have school on wednesdays. AND haha i'm your senior Michelle!

I miss Hongkong. I miss the shopping, the portuguese egg tarts and the smelly toufu.

[Current Music |Hey Love - More Amor]

So i got back like 2 weeks ago. I lied to my friends that i was going to extend my stay till friday and they all believed me!(: And the first person i surprised was of course, Michelle. She was indeed very surprise. I know you must be thinking how childish can i get. But you know that feeling you get when your surprise went according to how you planned it? It feels so rewarding and yea i felt that(:

Australia was great. Travelling alone is quite an experience, i loved it. Shopping was only okay but the weather was amazing. The fish and chips i had was really the best i ever had. And i bought uggs! When i told Michelle she was like, 'wtf why!'. But it's really comfy! Although, now, i have no idea when and where i'm gonna use it, considering Singapore never snows, not to mention we don't even experience the slightest form of cold weather. The Chocolate Factory was oooomg, heavenly. So was the nougat factory and the winery and the cheese farm. Train rides were really 'educational'. You get on and you would probably get off knowing the life story of the person sitting beside you. Like i was sitting beside this middle-aged lady and she was telling me how many children she had, which are the ones that treat her well, and how she plans on getting a divorce cuz she thinks her husband is useless. And she then continues by asking me if getting a divorce was the best solution. It's like, how the hell would i know lady! And just as i thought the conversation was coming to a halt, she starts asking me if i was wondering how she had gotten the scar she has on her arm -.- She probably was being friendly but i mean seriously? That's the Aussie's for you, really friendly, or should i say over-friendly.  And that was ONE of the MANY conversations i had with a complete random stranger. And i went fishing! For the very first time in my life. It wasn't as bad as i thought it would be. But i wouldn't say the same for the smell that was stuck on me. In case you were wondering, i caught quite a number of fish(: 

The plane ride home was really annoying and bumpy. I had this German lady constantly kicking my chair. I felt really emotional at the airport cuz i didn't wanna leave. I felt as if i had a new life there, as if i had no worries and no troubles(not like i lead a very troubled life). I know i sound really drama but that was how i really felt. So much for wanting to have a non-dramatic life. But oh well, in a way, i'm glad to be back. Next stop:Hong kong!

And Christian Long gets back tomorrow!(:

Well, i do tend to over pack.

[Current Music |The Jakes - Paid The Piper]

I passed on a 300 dollar deal on a Balenciaga wallet. damn, i've got hell alot of self-control! I keep telling myself i won't regret, but i bet i will 2 months down the line. I mean, it isn't the traditional Balenciaga wallet.But anyway, whatever. Michelle and I baked cupcakes on Friday for Elaine's birthday, it turned out awesomeeee. Elaine loved it! Kudos to Michelle and i(:  And i slapped Jerome really hard on Friday and i feel really baddddddd. But he knows how sorry i am, well at least i hope. So Michelle and i were sitting at starbucks the other day and she said the most funniest thing ever:

M: I hate it when guys call me babe
C: Yea i know! It's like, i'm not your freaking girlfriend so don't call me babe
M: Yea! And it makes me sound like a pig
*SILENCE, gives Michelle the,'i have no idea what you're talking about look*
~after 10 seconds~
C: HAHAHA OMG YEA BABE THE PIG!

Seriously, Michelle almost never says stuff like that. Well yea she can be funny but not in this way.

And after working in retail, i've come to realise something(s). Singaporeans are extremely(beyond extremely actually) RUDE. You smile at them and say hi, but you never get the same in return. Instead they give you the,' you're not worth my time look'. AND they don't know the meaning of a barricade. I mean seriously, if you see a barricade, you OBVIOUSLY can't cross over. AND they can't read signs. If you see a sign saying,'up to 60% sale', it means that the discount can range from 10% to 60%, how does that mean everything is 60% off? It's such common sense and its written out in such layman's terms, and you're telling me you don't understand and accuse the sign of being misleading?Like for real are you kidding me? So are you trying to tell me that if there weren't a sale, you wouldn't shop? So yea, why not, you just lock yourself up at home and not waste my time. arghhhhh, soo annoying i swear.

All my flights have been booked, i leave for Australia in exactly a month's time! To be honest, i'm actually quite scared of going alone, but i'll survive. My 'no-shopping' plan has been working, i'm glad to say i've not bought anything ever since cny.(okay i did shop at the zouk flea market, but everything i bought was under 10 bucks) everytime i wanna buy something, Michelle will be like, 'NO! DON'T BUY IT, DON'T YOU DARE!' so yes, Michelle has rest assured that i wouldn't buy anything. People should hire michelle when they wanna save money, you'll DEFINITELY be able to save money.  

So anyway, the holidays have been going by really slowly.(i'm not complaining) Last week i went to town and sat at starbucks and i read a whole book and finished it! And when i told Jerome about my achievement, he's like, 'oh were you reading a pamphlet?' -.- idiot much. Moving on, i also made a list of things i wanna buy (i know i'm not supposed to be shopping), and i've divided them into columns of 'needs and wants'. Like there's this trench coat at Gap that will really come in handy when i am in Australia and in HK. BUT then again, i've always WANTED a trench coat, and i dont really NEED a trenchcoat to keep me warm, because i've already got tons of sweaters. So, trench coat? yes/no? And there's also this cape that i wanna get. It's sooo pretty and perfect, and to be honest, how often do you find capes in Singapore? Not very often i must say!(i''ve been looking around for ages) And i'll have to swallow the bitter pill that they aren't gonna bring in my classic Ferragamo clip anytime soon):

On a brighter note, i can't wait for '17 again' to start showing(:

i feel bad now, cny is evil,festive seasons are evil. but anyway, its the holidays! well actually, i already made last week the start of my holiday, considering i skipped most of it. i went down to check my work schedule today and found out i'm only gonna work for like 5 days in a month? ugh. that really bugs me, now i've got nothing to do. and i really mean nothing. i HATE, and i repeat HATE having nothing to do, because i usually plan ahead, and when my plans get ruined,i get really pissed.  i'm gonna ground myself at home because shopping isn't an option anymore. maybe i'll start tennis lessons(i've been wanting to start for ages), or plan my long awaited picnic with michelle, or maybe look for a job that would hire me for 2 weeks. pfffffffffft, this.is.so.annoying.

on the other hand, i watched bride wars today. i walked out of the movie asking michelle if we would get married on the same day in the future, and she's like, NOOOOOO! well you see, michelle, has anger issues. right michelle?(:
