long lasting friendships?

It has been 9 years since i graduated from high school.. i was from an all girls school, PESS/SMKPP.. of course there were lots of issues back then.. i was practically an outcast.. i was NOT smart enough to be at the top class.. hence i lost some of my friends when we were in Form 4.. and some group won't even include me coz i'm not pretty enough..

So basically, i was an ugly duckling.. someone who can't even hang out with friends too after school coz my mum was pretty darn strict with me.. she made it a point of me not having GUYS friends while in school.. studies come first..


Back then, every/most girl friends has either a bf or bfs or crushes.. while me *sigh* no guys would even want to talk to me! =.= anyway, it's the past and i do not regret it.. things turns out pretty good for me now :) altho i do not keep in touch with most of my high school friends, but still i have them on my facebook! lol..



Okay okay.. i must admit that i don't look good enough to get guys interested in me :P~


Alice, i'm so happy that we kept back in touch after all these years.. plus we're both mature now to not let a silly argument get into our friendship..


Ivy, you were the first one who got married.. we lost contact for a few years until recently.. thanks for buying me the krispy kreme all the way from UK.. hehehe.. and your daughter is soooooooooo cute :)


Adrienne teh, we've been friends since the past 20 years? gosh.. since we were in primary school.. yea yea.. i still remembers that your dad brought us F&N drinks when we had parties :P hehehe.. coz i always looked forward to it..



Yoke kiat, thanks for standing by me when we were in primary school.. remember how you tried to explain to my mum about my exam result? i was practically crying when i got to know i got 7th place in the class coz my mum expected me to be in the top 5.. well, thanks for that :)

Mei leng, my tuition buddy.. what can i say? we were pretty much the same.. hahaha.. 1 thing for sure, no guys were interested to know us! lol!! hmmmm... maybe we were too geeky?? :P thanks for still being my friend and also meeting up with us when we were in Singapore :)



Natalie quek, we were always the good buddies back in school.. you have your own style and attitude.. you were special.. we both clicked well.. i just do not know why people misunderstood you back then.. but now, you're a mother.. boy, time flies and you're expecting AGAIN :) i'm really happy for you




After high school (1998), everyone went separate ways.. my mum entered me into LimKokWing University of Creative Technology (LUCT) which is formerly known as LimKokWing Insitute of Creative Technology (LICT).. there for the first time ever, i talked to guys and became their friend.. i was there for 2 ½ years and i made some great friends whom i still keep in touch with :)



My bff, nikie lee.. yea girl, we've been friends for the past 9 years! people thought that we were sisters coz we always hanged out together, eat together, skipped class together, played pool together and our name is kinda similiar.. hahaha.. nikie & nicole.. but i don't think we look like sisters tho! some people misunderstood you and thinks that you're a biatch and a snob.. basically someone who has an attitude problem.. hahaha.. but to me, you are who you are.. that's what makes you special! ;)


Kurt, the guy who always hitched a ride home from me.. hahaha.. it was great hanging out with you.. you talked i listened.. LOL! and you always have stories to tell :) oh, i'd like to say congrats to you once again for getting hitched ;)


Elaine, i've known you since foundation.. you were sitting next to me :) and we became friends fast.. i remember the late dinner at williams and the times when we hanged out.. also the trip we had at genting..


Just when i started to work after college, i met more new friends.. a few of them whom i still keep in touch with every now and then :)

Valarie, altho we doesn't meet up too often or chat on the phone but i did not forget about you :P i do appreciate it when we do meet up ;)


Ben, thanks for being there listening to my crap after my last break up


May, should i still be keeping that secret of how we met? ;) hahahaha...


In ablemen, the last place where i last worked.. i met a couple more nice people :D


Anja, what can i say about you? hmmmm... maybe that you're one loud-crazy-open-minded-kick-ass-do-not-care-a-shit-biatch chicka


Nurul, the one who likes to eat at aunty nat.. hahaha.. i had a great time at bali with you.. cut down on your ciggie :P


And since i started this blog 2 years ago, i've found some new blogger friends and we clicked instantly..

Serena, i appreciate our friendship.. thanks for calling me once awhile just to chat and for making an effort to meet up with me even when you have tons of things to do on your list.. hope we could plan a road trip one day.. i had fun going to penang and singapore with you :)


Jason, thanks for the krispy kreme you got for me from aussie (altho i didn't have it :P) plus i hope you'd find 'the one' soon :)


Calv, you're always the joker =.= always light up a dull conversation.. LOL!


Evie, thanks for standing by me on my blog.. think only you can understand what i'm going through coz your life is pretty much the same as mine :P we make good shopping buddies.. hehehe..


Last but not least, i found my lifetime companion/soulmate 2 years ago.. he's none other than my hubby :)


And my soulmate gave me a BEST friend who would be there for me for the next 15 years? :)


See, i do not have many friends.. less than 20.. i don't usually meet up with them often as they are busy with work, life and bf/gf/hubby.. so what i do is just contacting by sms/msn once awhile..

Anyways, i'm blessed that they are really genuine and sincere towards our friendship and not being jealous/envy/judgemental/backstabbing :)

Thanks guys & girls :D

what is this?

Why is this happening at one of the most upscale shopping mall??



Why people are allow to just sit ON the stairs?? why people are allow to stand in a BIG group to chit chat and to camwhore?? why? why? why? look closer of the pics.. see the way those people were sitting! legs stretching out like they were at their home =.= plus they were doing nothing except chatting with family members or friends.. that is a VERY ugly / FUGLY @ fucking ugly sight..

Fyi, i took the pics above while i was shopping in Pavilion with my grandma and aunty.. to me, pavilion is like Takashimaya in Singapore.. it's a home to some of the world's most luxurious fashion brands.. it's supposed to be high class.. it's a shopping mall where many foreigners come to shop.. this is NOT a market place or a park!

Come on, you don't get to see this scenario at Starhill or at 1Utama.. those people are sitting on THE STAIRS IN THE MALL!! *eyes rolling*

Anyways, i finally found the heels which i've been searching for :) plus it was on sale! i'm soooooooooooooo happy!! :D





Can't wait to wear it >.<

closer?

After 4 hours of driving, finally my toothbrush got to reunited with....


my bb's toothbrush!!! :D

I drove to Singapore alone.. just to spend 8 days with my bb.. yea i know.. insane right? that's what love does.. making people do crazy things..

Since my bb is still in Singapore and his ship haven't sail to vietnam AND since i miss him so much, why not just meet him there? i stayed at a cheaper hotel.. which is like 20mins drive away from Orchard Rd and also the jetty..

This is where i stayed, Hotel Windsor :-


My bb drove to work everyday and comes back to the hotel after his shift at about 6pm-ish.. he had to wake up by 5.30am and drive to work by 6am just to get himself back to the ship, have breakfast and attend the 7am meeting.. so every morning, i've to wake him up when the alarm went off.. it's kinda heart breaking to see him dragging himself out from the bed when he was still tired and sleepy *sigh*

Anyways i finally got a chance to meet up with eugene :) met up with him at takashimaya and had lunch together..





Oh oh.. i've a place to recommend for good food.. it's none other than Botak Jones! russ's friend, justin recommended it to us.. no doubt, the food is fantastic! their tag line is "Damn Good Food at A Damn Good Price" which is SO true!!

My bb took me to the Toa Payoh's outlet..



Our dinner cost SGD17 ONLY.. it's cheap right? now, check out our food :-

My cajun chicken


My bb's Botak Jones burger



Spicy fries


On our anniversary, we went to Hip Diner USA where the cathay cinema is located :-




My bb's mushroom soup and lamb shank :-



My spicy chicken and chicken with cheese sausage :-


After spending about 8 days in Singapore with my bb, it was time for me to come back home :( so before heading home, i went to the jetty to see my bb.. to hug and kiss him AND to say goodbye :'(




I didn't cry when i said goodbye this time.. maybe because we spent some quality time together.. am missing him so much now *sigh*
