I watched Charlie’s Angels over the weekend and saw how women can also kick some serious butt. It was such a big whopper but if Arnold Swarzenawatever could pull off stunts like firing two machine guns simultaneously while walking, the charlie’s angels can define gravity.

I was thinking of how am I going to celebrate my 21st birthday.
Should I,
Gather as many friends and relatives as possible, even those I barely meet, for a buffet thingy at my Idon’tthinktherewillbeenoughspace apartment….then spend the whole day grinning silly, attempting to entertain everyone but in process neglecting most of them…
Or,
Spend the day with those I truly love and whom I’m thankful, for being around when I reach one of the most overly and grossly hyped year of my life.
I was lusting after the first one…because it’s the one of a kind chance to be the center of attention among so many people. What better excuse to gather so many people than a 21st birthday? The first month celebration is more of a parents’ pride thing, weddings doesn’t count cuz you’ve got to share half the attention and funerals aren’t much fun. Even if mine is.. I’m quite sure I can’t be a part of it.
But after attending a few birthday parties this year (not all), I’m not too sure what I want.
I’ve come to think that the 21st birthday party is a showcase of how many friends you have in the guise of a birthday celebration. In reality, how can I celebrate when I don’t have any emotional attachment to these parties or the person? My mission: To eat, and pay with a present. Ok…and to get updates from other familiar faces.
I dare say I won’t be there on their 22nd birthday party…I was invited only because it’s THE 21st birthday. And turning 21 is important…it is significant…it is the world!!!
Watever…you’re 21. So what? Get over it and on with life.
Hehe but I’m sure there ARE those who REALLY want to celebrate with me and want me to be happy on my birthday. You can always send me the presents. Money loaded ang baos are most welcomed! Email me for mailing address..thanks.
I’m convinced that my collegues have evil plans of getting me fat. The next time someone offers me any food, she will promptly lose her fingers.

I almost forgot how sweet my best friend can be. And I’m really grateful to have such a wonderful best friend. There are only a few whom I can really talk to and she is one of them. Similiar intellectual level I suppose…among other things. Never really notice how big a part intellectual level plays in communication until someone mentioned it.
There was a time when she cooked for me, she actually woke up early so that she could go to the market to get fresh fish head for the..erm curry fish head. Then when I was waiting for the dish to be ready, she brought out a box of strawberries just for me. She said she bought them because she knew I love strawberries. Aww *sniffles*
I <3 my bestfriend.
Fucking hell. Stuck at home for the weekend with nothing to do. Can’t even club without having to take sarcasm. I’m so pissed I don’t feel like doing anything even. Even the sight of the new Harry Potter book doesn’t please me, actually it doesn’t because I can’t read it until my sister is done with it. She knows I won’t stop until I finish the book. I’m happy with the thickness of it, but the fonts are so huge! Why!? I want it to last me the whole week! But at least I know what I’ll be occupied with next weekend… instead of waiting for some stupid boyfriend to be free. He had plans for the whole weekend and he didn’t tell me until I fucking ask. Fucking hell. And to think I put him on top of my priority list.
Without revealing their names, say something about (or to) each one of [your dailies]. Never reveal who is what. (note: chances are, if it’s negative & you think it’s about you, it’s not)
Started out from lack of boredom and think it would be fun but I realised there are things that I don’t think I would say upfront to them….hmm ok still fun.
People include are everyone in my blog links from linksout. I’ve included everyone from my protag links too because some of them are significant even though I don’t read their blogs. *proclaims* I don’t have too much time for everyone! Livejournals not included since they are owned by more or less the same people. *grumbles* Its so hard to keep up with people, they can’t make up their mind what they want to use.
Not in any particular order. I was rushed to do this by the way..to be edited.
I am officially going to Tioman. 
The last time I went there was in secondary 2, with my dad and sister. I had so much fun there and fell head over heels in love with this blonde guy from Switzerland. It’s a major crush, so major that I didn’t want to go back to Singapore, and when I was back, I was very depressed. !@#$ stupid girl.
This time I’m going with Tom, two of my san haji girlfriends, where one is bringing her dark-as-charcoal boyfriend and there are also a group of nus friends (all geography honours students!!). Since Tom is going, I can only discreetly gawk at other guys and likewise, if he openly gawk at another girl’s puppies or something, I’ll drown him in the sea and tell everyone it’s an accident, very conveniant.
I’m getting a lot stuff from my collegues. Mostly food.
I came back from lunch today and I told one of my collegue that I’m still hungry, so when she went for her lunch, she bought a slice of pizza for me. *Sigh* I’m thankful but I should shape up for tioman.
And when I told them how I could eat twenty of those peanut butter biscuits in the pantry back in my receptionist days because I was obsessed with. They filled up a cookie jar full of that nutty yummy goodness, placed it on the table just outside my cubicle and remind me to eat some everyday. EVIL!
Anyway…the new Harry Potter book is coming out soon. I can hardly wait!
In my magical kingdom, which is actually very similiar to real life, I expect things to fall from the sky and land neatly on my feet. When I step on them, they shall be transformed into a flying carpet which would whiff me off to my prince, who btw… is the most yandao guy in the land. We WILL live happily ever after. Yay!
It’s all possible right? Please tell me so that I can stop studying, start finding a nice spot to sit and wait.
which smilie are you?

Its been more than a month at hewlett packard already, I’m feeling relatively loaded with nothing to spend on. 
I went to a business lunch with my dad yesterday and he is a changed man. The same man used to steal lobster meat from my plate when I wasn’t at the table, his lame excuse was he didn’t know I wanted it. I mean..HELLO? It was ON my plate? Yesterday, he didn’t even glance at my food, which in itself, is quite a miracle. Then when I didn’t finish my chips, he didn’t touch them. Impressive. On top of that, he stopped his singlish and used cheem cheem words that I did’t understand.
But when he’s home, he’s the clown daddy again. <3
I’ve got the domain yesterday and I’ve got a layout up by today. Productive, am I not?
It cost me US$70 for 2 years and comes free with url and email forwarding. If I were to register with nunames, I have to pay US$15 more dollars for the extra service.
Seventy dollars, which come up to a hundred plus in sing, for a domain name registration is quite a pinch. Therefore I decided to give out as many email forwards as I can, to people who would make use of them widely…so by the end of 2 years, if they want to save the hussle of email change…they would have to pay up. Muahaha I’ll charge 2 dollars each. So anyone who wants a forward email me at x@joy.nu.
Ok, that funny thing at the side is made with illustrator. *lol* You all are allowed to laugh. Though weird looking, it shall be remembered as my first illustrator work. The rest is made with adobe photoshop and the mobile thing up there is made macromedia flash (reuse work).
The input fields at the left are for blog comments. They are not email forms, so if you’ve got any hushy stuff to say, don’t use that but email me at, once again, x@joy.nu. hehehe gtg now.. nite
*Smooch the first commentor*
I have no plans tonight. No one ask me out. *cries* It’s ok, I’ll just go home to watch amazing race. Tomorrow will be better because I’ve got buffet dinner appointment at Shangri La!
Here’s today’s five
1. What’s one thing you’ve always wanted to do, but never have? Shave my head. If I can like try it for one day and get all my hair back the next, I’ll do it.
2. When someone asks your opinion about a new haircut/outfit/etc, are you always honest? Sometimes
3. Have you ever found out something about a friend and then wished you hadn’t? No
4. If you could live in any fictional world (from a book/movie/game/etc.) which would it be and why? Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Caroll for visit. To live there permanently, probably Garden of Paradise by Hans Anderson.
5. What’s one talent/skill you don’t have but always wanted? Talent for writing.
I need some opinion. Do you think if I should register for joy.nu? I think I’ve fallen for the url. I’m still kicking myself for trying out nunames. I was quite sure that joy would be taken but it isn’t, and now I’m in a dilemma. Nunames registration fee is three times as expensive but the url is three times shorter than pixelstars. Hmmm so how? Anyway, I’ll be keeping pixelstars no matter what.
I declare that I’m NOT sheltered. I DON’T live in my disney fantasy. I’m NOT a kid and I’m certainly NOT CUTE.
Among my friends, I’m usually the one with the most freedom around. My parents doesn’t give me monthly allowance, I have access to how much I want to spend. I don’t have a curfew and they don’t care if I don’t get distinctions in school. This is the kind of trust I get from my parents and I don’t think I failed them…
Primary school: I look around at other friends who are constantly getting hammered and monitored for what they do. I could see where they are heading and I see where they are now.
Secondary: Hang out with a bunch of lians. We were in the best class and three of my friends were very pretty. That’s why we were popular (thanks to them) and in my best friend’s opinion, kinda snobbish. They started smoking, I didn’t. They started shoplifting, ok I did too but I felt so bad I went back to return the stuff I stole. Then they started beating other girls up and I didn’t hang out with them anymore…I chose a class with none of them in it, made meaningful friendships which I can hopefully keep for the rest of my life. If I didn’t leave I don’t think I could get into a JC.
These are the decisions I made that gave me my standing this world today. Maybe I’m sheltered in a way cuz I’m provided with whatever I can have… but at the same time, I wasn’t bonded to some life plan my parents came up with and they trust me to make all the right decisions. I’ve gone so far but I’m not given any credit for it. Just sucks big time.
And again, I don’t live alone in my Disney fantasy. Do understand that they have villians too and I don’t believe in happily ever after. I just know that there is more to this world than money, evilness and rude people who don’t practice mrt ettiquete.
Amidst the hussle of school, work and relationships.. I think it is good to stop for a while to admire the clouds and be reminded that the world is still beautiful..or at least, a part of it.
One question: How many peaple actually visits the zoo because they appreciate the animals but have no money to enjoy the luxury of seeing them in their wilderness?
Of the people I know, I believe only one have that purpose.
The rest visits because of one or more of the following reasons
- they are sick of orchard and sentosa
- they think it would be fun
- they think its a nice dating place
- they think their children would like it (ok I respect that)
- they want to see a favourite animal
- they find small furry mammals cute…these kind would usually squeal and pinch each other arms when they spotted one and make faces at reptiles. *rolls eye*
- they had to
I’m one of these people. *sighs*
One of my greatest peeves besides people spitting is people who doesn’t follow mrt etiquette. Yesterday, there was this guy who leant against one of the pole and he was grinding this other poor fellow’s hand. Normally, I would just sulk and silently curse him but yesterday I told him off and genuinely felt bad afterwards. Just can’t believe how nice I am. Haha
Anyway, Ling said that there are funny animations in the credits of Finding Nemo. I missed it! I was the first kiasu person out of the theatre and I thought that was rather slick.
*sian*
I watched ‘What a Girl Wants on friday and Finding Nemo on Saturday. The former was typical cute chick flick and very predictable. Finding Nemo was on the other hand, quite enjoyable. I think it is the next worthy Disney animated production after Monster Inc. The story plot is not as interesting but the process of Finding Nemo is quite hilarious. I’m extremely fond of the turtle in his surfer-dude accent. In short, I love the film!
I think I’m not having lunch anymore. My mum says I’ve developed a tummy and I should start skipping or something. My mum is more critical than my boyfriend. I told my collegues why I’m not going for lunch anymore and they think my mum is crazy. My mum also said my sister is getting fat and there is some truth in it. I think I’ve got flabs in my mid-section too..so ya.. I think I’m going to forgo lunch today. *edits* My plan failed, I can’t even endure one hour after lunch hour and had to get lunch. My collegues laughed. >:O
I used to eat a lot and still be horribly thin. That was before I came to JC and my grandmother always thought I’ve got worms in my stomach. I guess I’ve lost that luck.
Why must the prefered body size be S (Small, slim or stick skinny)?. Damn the media.
ps: Anyway, a guy should never say that a girl is fat. It’s plain evil and you stupid !@#$ who are blessfully made up of more mussles just don’t understand. But if the girl is asking the fat question every other time of the day, which could be very annoying…just tell her wat she wants to hear. Muahaha.
The collegue sharing my cubicle and I had been counting down to this day since Monday. I don’t understand why working life can be so tiring… you basically sit there in an air-con room all day, and in my case, doing mindless work…so why!? I miss school!
1. How many times have you truly been in love? 3 times
2. What was/is so great about the person you love(d) the most? Haven’t figure out who that is but it’s how they are able to make me feel and there are lots of elements involved.
3. What qualities should a significant other have? Mutual feelings… among others.
4. Have you ever broken someone’s heart? Haha don’t think so.
5. If there was one thing you could teach people about love, what would it be? It’s not something to be taught.
Saturday: Tom’s mum met my family for the first time (Recap: they were ex-collegues). I didn’t pay much attention to what they were discussing because I’m too engrossed with the food. It went ok I think. Night safari was wonderful. It was relaxing and fun and the best thing is that it cost half the usual price. Hehe. The company was great, went with Tom and two good friends. That was of cuz… priceless.
Sunday: Everything turned upside down, but since things are back to normal now, I’m not going into that. It just scares me how things could seem almost perfect one second and messed up the next.
Monday: I’ve got pretty eyes due to too much crying the day before. Short term blessing in disguise. It was also my cousin last day at HP.
Tuesday: Eavedropping payoff : “From the way you save, buying all the 50% discount items, we’ll go broke soon.” Hehe blame the GSS.
Anyway: Drollery has a new layout! She stole my picture. >:O
