relationship drama

i'm really not one of those people who blogs about their relationship issues or which girl is bitching about me etc. i mean, these things are good for a gossip session but i wouldn't be bothered to rant about it and waste cyberspace.

but now, RIGHT NOW, i am fuming mad and i just need an outlet. and i'm typing this on my trusty S2 because my (abused) laptop takes forever to start up and i just wanna rant while it's fresh.

WARNING: this entire post will be WORDY. any person(s) mentioned who sounds familiar is/are prolly someone you know through me.

so the cause of my bitching today is *drumroll* the ex-boyfriend. i am but majorly pissed off because i've had enough of his nonsense. let me begin with how it ended.

our relationship was a 2-year rollercoaster yadayada you know how it is. it went downhill when i eventually got really emotionally drained from having to make decisions in the relationship all the time. i mean for God's sake i'm a girlfriend not his frickin mother. i got sick of his constant  dependence on me, be it checking for information via a phone call, or speaking to the damn service staff in english, or writing a damn letter to ministry of manpower. so i made the final decision to cut ties as a couple. of course we all know it's almost impossible to remain as friends but we're humans right, we persist to be optimistically in denial.

initially it went well, what with him saying he understood and blahblahblah which of course he didn't. he texted me every other hour, everyday, as he always did, just omitting the terms of endearment. i naturally got annoyed and i can't really recall what happened but we got into an argument. thank God, because i sure as hell can't handle amicable stupidity.

so anyway. at one point of the argument, my dear thick-headed jerk of an ex made a comment about me, of course, but he made it in reference to bringing my family into the argument, which honestly in my opinion was absolutely unnecessary! i got more mad (because he picked my work day to come argue with me, no less) and ignored him from then.

guess what? after he jeered and sneered at me, he texted me THE NEXT DAY and said "hope we're still friends." ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME.

anyway i've been ignoring him since, i think that was last september? on and off ever since that day i will think about what happened and there will always be a teeny part nagging at the back of my head that i'm a cruel cold-hearted bitch and i will prolly be single for the rest of my life and the life after. but i never regretted my ignoring him, even though he will text like every other day, things like "how are you, Cal?" and i'll always feel irritated and be tempted to reply "no i died like 16 times today thanks for asking" but i thought i'd not give him the satisfaction of getting a response from me.

so why this rant, you ask? why dedicate an ENTIRE post to a has-been? now that i'm thinking about it, he should be honored too, because he would be the first i'm bitching about on my personal blog.

now let me first list down what i'm pissed about. the few reasons why i'm refusing to forgive him as a person. first off, he offended me by bringing my family into our argument. unwritten rule: NEVER use the trust i give you as leverage to threaten me.

and then there was that mood swings he had. one day he would be all like "hi how are you" and another day he would be like "why you scared to talk to me". it's annoying, and it's childish.

next on the list. he grovelled. now you're gonna say imma mother bitch because he grovelled so why am i still annoyed. because he said how he's been drinking and smoking ever since we broke up and if only i would take him back because i'm "the only one who can stop me from smoking".

bitch please, don't hang your burdens on me. did i force that cigarette down your throat?? please. enough of the emotional blackmailing already.

but wait, there's more. when all of above didn't work, he said his "final words" and..get this, he deleted me off facebook and blocked me on twitter! *gasp* please la got so drama anot.

so tell me, with all of that happening, was i wrong to ignore him to move on with my own life? well it's been a good few months and i thought, okay this is nice, no more drama, he moved on, i might not need to go to hell for being the cruel cold-hearted bitch. you know what they say about good things don't last.

a couple of hours ago i received a facebook notification that he has sent me, naturally, a friend request. seriously now, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME.

to be honest, i did make idle  thoughts about how long he's gonna take to come around and send that request but i didn't expect him to prove me right yet again.

so i am angry. i am very, very, very angry because this is like a game to him. what the fuck does he take me as, a fucking toy he can pick or dump at his whimp? well obviously he has not grasp the gravity of the situation. yes, i am very soft-hearted. but this, this i will make exception for.

well then, this is what i will tell you. this blog post is about you, but this is definitely NOT about me still pining for you. i've typed this entire chunk of words because i want to make it clear to you and also as a reminder to myself that i will continue to ignore you and why. it's time you realise that some words you say, you can never take back.

and this is to whoever reading this, if you're STILL reading, omg thank you for bearing with me! i think all the typing and thinking did me some therapeutic good.

goodnight and here's to better days. :)

Wedding Bells

not my wedding bells, for sure. lol.

i attended 2 weddings so far, i think. wait, i had a lot more invitations but i only managed to attend 2. LOL like damn smart. no la i think it clashed with my work schedule or something. and i know something else happened so i ditched one of them but that's another story.

anyway. the first one i went to was at Fullerton Hotel (yes, i HAD to pick the expensive one lol) and it was my poly schoolmate's wedding. kinda weird turning up though, because although i knew the entire table of people, we were just not talking much. or rather I was not talking much. i haven't seen them in 10 years sheesh. i know they have been meeting up amongst themselves so it was really awkward for me. plus, i wasn't feeling comfortable blahblahblah. :/

so here's me with the bride, Jerine. thanks photographer, for the double chin. lol.

and the group photo at the end of the dinner. very stressful shot, because there were like a million and one people asking to take photos with the couple. but because our group very big, our skin combine together also very thick. LOL.

they have these little instant photo thingys at weddings these days. i really hated my hair that night so it was awkward + awkward = mega awkward. sigh.

MOVING ON.

the next wedding i felt better, even though i had a nagging feeling that i was gonna attend it alone with nobody else i know. lol.
i was happy enough to camwhore lol. :D and if you know me enough i'm really not the type to stand in front of the mirror and camwhore.
side note: the toilet at Four Seasons is FAWESOME.

i was camwhoring in the toilet also because i was waiting for Shufen to arrive, who apparently got lost somewhere in Forum i think. lol. and when she came and she stalked the candy area!

okay, i had a part in that too. and we were so amused that we had to take photos of our loot.


AND THEN! we got caught by the professional photographer! LMAO. i dunno that i was looking at his lens either!


one with the bride Chin Ser before dinner! :))
(sorry about the flash though. it was..pfft.)


Fen was horrible, she made me steal more candy! lol.


with Cheryl. LONG TIME NO SEE! this wedding dinner turned out better than expected. :))


those photo cards thingy again! so the more photos you take, the more cards you get to bring home. and it was almost instantaneous. here you get snapped, there you get your picture. :O efficient much!

here's to all the couples - to a blissful marriage! your life pretty much starts from there and may your love overcome all. :)

2012 so far..

hi! this is your friendly update after..oh 4 months into the year. lol. SORRY! first off, i have ze most fail laptop that will shut down by itself if left on for too long. and because of this, i cannot transfer whatever photos i have to the laptop otherwise it will "overload" and shut down. YES i have a really lao kok kok laptop and i need a new one. soon okay! imma saving up for upcoming holiday so...it's really a tough decision which one to save up more for. xD

anyways! to catch up, i will post some photos (which i managed to upload to fb thanks to Susan :D) with like a summary. i know i know, it's a poor way of blogging but i'm trying to catch up. i haven't exactly been very sociable these days either.. =X

i realised i skipped from october directly to christmas lol. okay so to fill in the blanks, in early november i crashgate Susan's company's family day. it wasn't like i had games to play but i had a free meal and a free entrance to sentosa. LOL. oh AND i got to hear this really cool guy sing like Jacky Cheung please! (Y)

this is Susan and her son Seth, who is like my rumoured godson but i haven't really acknowledged it because of reasons i haven't really figured out myself. lol. okay no, actually i have this warped idea that i have to be financially stable to be able to get myself a godson. like please, if i can't even take care of myself, how to be an example of a godmother siol? but anyway. HE'S CUTE RIGHT. :D

then in late november i -finally- had a date to go clubbing with the girls. i think i kinda took a hiatus from clubbing because i felt old and honestly, i don't have a lot of friends who go to clubs anymore. :O we have all.....matured. lol. but that fateful night i met up with Susan & Joanne to go to Movida at St James, it was a HUGE disappointment. somehow the music scene had changed (it had only been a year before since i last stepped into Movida!) and even the crowd was..older. it was like stepping in to a nightclub. almost.

this would be the girls, Joanne & Susan. we were all in black lol.
this was at the bus stop..WE TOOK THE NIGHT RIDER BACK!! lol!! because we left darn early, like 1:30am on a friday night! but the ride to serangoon took like one bloody hour. and the bus was packed! :O i figured it would be cheaper to cab home from serangoon but my butt was flat from the bus ride lol.

we had a japanese dinner during the first week of december. it was..i dunno why it was planned but thinking back, that was quite a nice gathering. :)
i do not know WHY my eyes were closed but i blame the photographer. xD
here, a nice and decent one. :D

fast forward to mid december, i had one mini christmas gathering with my colleagues and it was a Really awesome change from work madness. :)
oops this would be the group photo but i thought it would also show the feast we had. lol.

okay this would be better. didn't look like much of a feast but we were bursting at the seams. almost. :D

thereafter we went to northpoint and wrote our wishes for 2012.

i like this photo because i look tall! HAHAHAHA :D

nothing much happened until christmas and i posted on that already. but here's the missing group photo from Susan:
LOL i should totally develop this photo in 8R or something.

then i had a short trip to Genting/KL with the family! gonna spam some awesome (to me anyway) photos because it was so colorful during the festive season. i kept using the "vivid" function on my camera for some shots and the colors really damn chio!
okay just some random shots. gonna leave you with a beautiful sunset i caught at Yong Peng stopover. :)
p/s: no updates for the year 2012 at all. lol. i actually have a wedding dinner to blog about but i have limited photos from that event! but i will get to that. i have a few drafts already, i promise!

OH WAIT! i just spotted one tagged photo of me to check back my own "timeline" of events and i found this:
like damn narcissistic i know. lol. but my point is the YONG TAU FU please!! it's a stall at Lucky Plaza foodcourt, please go try it. i cannot explain to you its awesomeness. the owner is also a very awesome guy. :D yes, you can quote my name but i dunno if he will give you discount lol.

Merry Christmas and all things festive

christmas is just like an ordinary day for me because i'm feeling all emo lately. not sure if it's the pms thing but it's not good. can't put a finger as to why i'm more emo than usual... :(

but. i just got back from the usual get-together at SK palace and i feel relatively better.

maybe it's social deprivation. lol.

now that i'm home, i'm staring at my presents and not feeling the least bit excited about opening them. something's definitely off about me, because christmas is supposed to be my favorite time of the year.

even christmas shopping was kind of half-fucked on my part. i feel so guilty because i think my friends made more effort than me. gosh. really grateful to my girlfriends. :')

so anyway. since my presents are still wrapped nicely, imma show you my 3 only festive photos i took with my phone all night. okay 4, if you wanna include a lousy photo of the logcake my brother bought.




logcake from baker's-something near serangoon, jalan riang. according to my brother it's good and popular and needs to be preordered. imo it's really rich so a super thin slice would suffice. it's not bad if you're the ultimate chocolate lover. i was stuffed from dinner so maybe i'm all like so-so only.




the only festive thing i did and am proud of. lol. last year i had pure snowflakes and this year's one notch up. yay to water decals! i got mine from Mei Mei's Signatures. Meimei's really efficient and i've been buying stuff from her for like a few years now. so go check out her website okay? these water decals are like $3.50 a pack, and there are 2 sets of those pictures. awesome or what. :D




red velvet cupcake from Baked by Lace, awesome stuff! Lace's cupcakes are at $3/cupcake and i'm really addicted to the red velvet. lol. i'm not a cream person but these make me forget i'm fat for a while. motto: eat first, regret later. LOL. that motto is just gonna last till 31 dec 2011 i swear.




i like this chocolate peppermint! fattening but so the fuck what. :D

merry christmas everyone, and may you be surrounded by people you love! xx

November 17, 2011

all that happened in October

and yes, finally, a post. lol. sorry i've been on a hiatus; it's been one hell of a month. and i really cannot remember the last time i had the time (and patience) to sit in front of my (dying) laptop. in between work, reading and tv shows (lol yes) i put my laptop on neglect.

so anyway. here's what you missed in october. which isn't much. i've got some really nice photos to update. here's one of the twin towers in KL, taken with my humble layman camera that i'm very proud of. lol. it takes amazing night shots!

oh and previously at ECP i had some nice shots too.

glorious skies! mega love~ ♥

and then finally on halloween weekend i attended my company's D&D held at Soul, a local club which used to be Supper Club i think.

yup, theme was Rock & Royale but i can tell you that a lot of them guys wore normal stuff. i mean, how hard is it to find something black to wear? this would be us. :)

but then can you blame them? even the MD wasn't dressed according to the theme! tsk. (but he smells damn good so...it's okay. lol!)

lab girls, please. ♥

did NOT win anything. boo. so much for "newcomer luck". ugh. so i bounced over to wala wala for actual rock! \m/ and took a photo with a black ghost. LOL. (i'm looking at the photo again and he really does look creepy, even with the smile. or maybe that's the point.)

amidst all the fun and great company, there was death. i mean, there is death every other second, but we don't really think about it unless it happened to someone close or someone you know. Wiyah had to cut short her vacation in singapore because her husband died and was only found 30 hours later; the door to the apartment had to be knocked down.

it got me thinking for a bit. i wanted to blog about how short life is, but it's gonna turn out hypocritical because the only time anyone talks about life being short is when they experience a death close to their hearts.

to be honest, i don't know what i learnt from this, except that man i'm a lousy comfort. i guess. i have NO idea how to put comfort into words, and all i did was be there for her. she tells me she appreciates my presence, but until today, i don't think i've done anything for her. words are so empty when she's like halfway across the globe and i cannot drop my commitments to spare her the comfort she needs.

i found this photo from 2005? when i first met her husband. i've only seen him twice, but my heart went out to her when i saw her break down.

everything happens for a reason. for a better reason. she's one of the strongest woman i know, but even the strongest have weak moments.

i won't go on and on to say how not to take people for granted. we all know that, in theory. now the challenge is to put them into action.

RIP Safwan.

Bootie Shopping

Wiyah and i passed by this new shop Payless at Suntec City and she said it's the same store in Canada where she got her shoe/sandal from. so i demanded we go in to take a look after our coffee, but we conveniently forgot about it. lol. that was 2 weeks ago.

yesterday after cycling at ECP, i suggested to go to Suntec again since there was a direct bus.

i didn't expect to buy anything from the shop, but i did. this pair of booties displayed right in front of the main entrance - it was the last piece in my size. i took it as a sign. :D

oh btw, the shoes are arranged according to sizes, so you just head straight to the aisle where it carries ALL the shoes available in your size. cool or what!

this is my current pair which are damn worn out already, and i've been searching for a new pair to replace but because this was the "fashion" 2 years ago, it's very difficult to find anything similar.



so you can imagine i was really excited, and guess what, this only cost me $49.90!








they were also having a promotion, if you buy any pair of shoes, you can buy selected accessories/bags/socks for 50% off! so even though i just bought like 12 pairs of new socks, i bought another 6 pairs. *hangs head in shame* these came in a set of 6 what. xD

and retailed at $13.90! so at 50% is less than $2 a pair please. happy like bird!



i know Suntec has been a ghost town in like forever, but yesterday it was crowded. i was kind of surprised because Suntec is a place i would escape to so i can avoid the crowd. lol. go check out Payless if you happen to drop by the mall! :)
