Horrible

it's a horrible day.

i acted horribly and i feel horrible.

not that i want to act horribly, but some people just treat me horribly. how come i always get the youre too young treatment. i think people have and will always take me for granted.

i'm not welcomed in a lot of places and i know it. what makes it worst is that some people know it and dont care about it.

i get it, im too young, im too childish, im too insignificant. i dont like it when you take me for granted and jump into conclusions about how or what i feel. I too am human and i want to be treated like how you treat everyone else. just because im always caught up in or with something doesn't give you the right to say that i am always wrong and you know more than me. you are older than me but please dont make me feel small. you are older than me but don't make me feel inferior to you. that is why im afraid around you, because people around you have more to talk with than me who apparently knows nothing at all.

I'm going to die faster..

Hi, it's me. I've arrived safely in year 2010, though I'm two weeks late.

Doesn't feel like a new year, no typical reflection of the past and resolution for the future. Why? Cause I was too busy trying to fit time for myself in my busy schedule of internship all the way till the 31st.

Now that I've finally arrived in 2010, i am officially back to the usual lifestyle that i predict will kill me earlier.

Let me lay down the bricks...

1. I finally reached the big 2-oh!..Im not young anymore, how sad is that.

2. I finally reached the last leg of the degree. I'm starting my final year thesis

next semester.

3. I went a little to ambitious and took 5 subjects: Professional Development,

Ethics, Philosophy of Psych, Research Design and Analysis and Counseling

Psychology.

4. I am taking 4 year 3 subjects with a lot of field work.

5. I have to plan for a fundraising and a camp as part of coursework.

6. My classes are all back to back straight with no breaks.

7. My due dates for major assignments start as early as 2nd of February.

8. It's good that I have to see a counselor as part of coursework because I really

need one now.

9. I'm still involved in CF as secretary, Student Council as Secretary of

Events Dep., working for scholarship, Unifest 10' and musical as one of the

cast.

10. Due to my back problems, I have to see a physiotherapist and get an X-ray

done next week.

There you have it. Top 10 Jojo facts for Year 2010 month January to April!

Did i not tell you i resolute a bad year?

resolute a bad year.

somethings not right, or maybe it's just the mood swings.

everyday's gloomy, so maybe im gloomy too.

what is wrong with me?

i believe next year is not going to be a good year for me, how pessimistic. while everyone else is busy making new year resolutions, i resolute that next year will be tough and bad.

no kidding, i seriously do.

but it won't be bad because i know i'll get something out of it. oh wells.

i'll spent the last days of this year working till the end, unlike other years where you take it slow when it reaches the end. i'll zoom till the end and zoom straight to next year. heck, i have so many things to do i have things lined up right to the last week of the year and the first week of next year.

yippeee. i want my holiday =(

im a sad sad person, emo-ish, a little freakish, and a mood spoiler.

one week.

last week was..

the one with the accident.

my very first accident which is technically my third. its the first time i hit a moving object driven by someone. technically, its the third. complicated. the first was a curb, the second was when someone bumped into me, so this is the third.

paranoid of texis but im fine. the texi had no scratch at all but he kept finding reasons to say that his car was dented. nevertheless, im glad i handled it well =) another reason why jojo has grown up.

the one with the end.

finished my two papers and the end of the 2nd sem of the 2nd year. i've never been happier to celebrate it with a retail therapy session and a indulgence session in Chilis. time passes fast. i have 1 more year before i graduate and 1 more semester before i start my thesis. oh boy.

the one with the harassed.

i drove to tesco after work to get some groceries and shopping of my own. some guy followed me and started asking questions about what my name was, where i was from and insisted on my phone number. he followed me to the carpark but i didnt dare walk to the car. started calling the boyfie who insisted that he stay on the phone and get into the car only when he was gone. mr. harasser gave me his phone number which i am yet to harass him back and eat his own dirt and made me circle around my house half an hour just to make sure no one was following me.

seriously, im in a state of shock. im angry at a pathetic guy and im angry for seeming vulnerable. im just angry.

the one with the job.

i started my internship at a child development center and toddlers have too much energy for me to handle. i cant keep 4 year olds still. and my first emcee-ing gig.

the one with the bad back.

i have a massively bad back ache with a sharp pain every now and then. something about the muscle. looked it up online and most websites say it takes 4 to 6 weeks for it to heal fully. mum helped turn my mattress the other way round so i would get a firmer and harder surface to support my back. not helping since i have to chase toddlers for 2 months...oh wells.

i aggravated it the day i finished my final paper cause i went shopping round midvalley the whole day.

the one with the halloween gig.

went to urbanattic with the boyfie to watch his gig on halloween. no, i dont agree with the holiday, i was just there to watch him play. we left straight after. anyway, its been sometime since i watched them play.

quarter-life crisis.

i'm seriously thinking of shutting up and just posting pictures of my blog, no kidding. Haha.

it's this phase of life where you feel like keeping things to yourself and broadcasting your thoughts globally makes you feel like you're just another number of google search's counter. Even if i do feel like pouring out feelings, i'm not sure I can find the right words to express them, or even if im sure of what i'm feeling at all. maybe that's where twitter got the idea of less is more. short sentences better express how you feel and doesn't make you seem like a total freako for writing random sentences on your blog entry...sorry, totally random.

photo by martyna adela d. 2008

speaking of phases of life, everyone seems to be going places. stepping into different and what i term "scary" phases of life. one step closer to making you feel grown up. which scares me, maybe i just dont want to grow up. i want to stay cozy under my parents roof and still have the freedom to be a grown up.

this is the perks of growing up ahead of your time and peers. people close to me are stepping into different phases of life and i'm the one feeling the effects the most.

maybe there is such a thing called quanter life crisis, instead of mid-life. seriously, im freaking 19 only and im thinking about saving money, paying for the bills and how i'm going to survive on my own.

this photo reminds me of someone.

someone who made everything feel better yesterday.

and now i have to wait another 3 days.

its been long.

it's been a rough couple of months.

it's hard keeping up, im getting drained.

the calendar seems to shiver by ever so fast,

i don't remember what day it is anymore.

i'm afraid i won't stop to embrace a day,

thanking thankfully.

but im afraid to stop, i don't want to stop.

i want to live having fun.

but walking along so fast makes me more than my age.

it's tiring not being your age.

i wonder why He is making me older than what i really am.

it hurts to look at someone suffer in silence,

why do we go through so much at such a young age?

it's tiring, why, it's difficult facing it when you're not ready.

such a young age, face the things you expect to face only when you become an adult.

how do you do it?

And after work you are so tired but still a star
So I waited all day by your side
It's starting to wear on my pride

Quit counting your tears

guilty as charged.

⁴Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. ⁵It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. ⁶Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. ⁷It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.⁸Love never fails

tell me, how do you be the perfect someone for someone else?

if: you raise your voice when he ticks you off, you envy other girls who spend more time with him, you boast to hide insecurities, you seek for your own good, you get angry in a split second, you remember the wrong he did you, you know you should trust but you're struggling.

being beautiful.

whole article was taken from http://crimsonmaverick.blogspot.com/2009/05/beautiful-bride.html

Something worth reading despite being busy:

Katie Kirkpatrick, 21, held off cancer to celebrate the happiest day of her life. Katie had chased cancer, once only to have it return-to clog her lungs and grab hold of her heart. Breathing was difficult now, she had to use oxygen. The pain in her back was so intense it broke through the morphine that was supposed to act as a shield. Her organs were shutting down but it would not stop her from marrying Nick Godwin, 23, who was in love with Katie since 11th grade.

The girl in the picture is Katie Kirkpatrick, she is 21. Next to her, her fiancé, Nick, 23. The picture was taken shortly before their wedding ceremony, held on January 11, 2005 in the US. Katie has terminal cancer and spend hours a day receiving medication. In the picture, Nick is waiting for her on one of the many sessions of chemo to end.

In spite of all the pain, organ failures, and morphine shots, Katie is going along with her wedding and took care of every detail. The dress had to be adjusted a few times due to her constant weight loss.

And unusual accessory at the party was the oxygen tube that Katie used throughout the ceremony and reception as well. The other couple in the picture are Nick's parents. Excited to see her son marrying his high school sweetheart.

Katie, in her wheelchair with the oxygen tube, listening to a song from her husband and friends.

At the reception, Katie had to take a few rests. The pain did not let her stand up for long periods.

Katie died five days after her wedding day.

Watching a woman so ill and weak yet getting married with a smile on her face makes us think..... Happiness is reachable, no matter how long it last. We should stop making our lives complicated.

Life is not always the party we expected to be but as long as we are here, we should smile and be grateful. God bless us in many ways which our human eyes are just too blind to see. We may question why He took her away at such a young age (a mere 21 years old beautiful woman, mind you, just a year older than I am right now). But then again, He gave her the most priceless thing ever - Love. A husband. Family. Comfort. Peace. Joy. Positivity. If she can get her happiness as simple as that, why can't we?

life's not a fairytale.

I've been blog, tweeterville, and fb hopping.

What i came up with today was a reoccuring theme - a depressing one i may add.

i have a question to ask,

what is it that makes us feel our emotional ties and stability is too shaken that we go great lengths to get anything back? why is it so hard to let go? why do we insist on having a relationship that hurts us so bad?

i am not pro-breakups or pro-ending-a-relationship-because-you-are-incompatible. In fact, im quite the opposite. While reading tweeterville and fb, i noticed the number of people who were supposedly in stable and great relationships only to find out that they ended things. Imma freak i know, but i tear a little everything i see these people parting ways.

I'm human, just like everyone else, I have been through heart breaks. It tears and rips. Logically, i understand the facts and reasonings of walking away and i respect people for having the strength to walk away for certain reasons. But i'm guilty of answering all the above questions because i think hard and long before going into one. I am in one because everything is a "yes" and i am certain.

So, to answer the questions, sometimes it's because you poured everything into it. Other times, its because you're not strong enough. And other times, love is more than it means to other people or rather, because it doesn't make sense for two people who are say...serious about it, waited a year to get into one, consulted everyone, asked for confirmation and yadayada, you get the picture....to depart from each other. Its a simple case of - we were meant to be together or everything was going for us. To make things simpler, breaking up sucks and its hard. The consequences that follow are even harder the next time around.

Logically reasoning, i understand and respect those who were so serious but walked away. My question is, "was it really worth it?". If it was for reasons out of love that you had to walk separately whatever your reasons may be, i have no right to argue with that. But what about those who got out of one, and started seeing someone else a few weeks later? What about those with superficial reasonings? What was your defense in that?

My statements are biased, i know that full well. But understand that girls are delicate in nature - most of them. I'm just coming from the side that doesn't cope very well with break-up and heartbreaks.

What do you do when people walk away? The natural progression is to tell yourself that no one is perfect and if you cant count on people, count on yourself. Apparently, i can't help myself from being fragile every once in a while and someone acknowledges that. As much as i acknowledge that i was trying to be self-sufficient 2 years ago, someone walked in and told me, "that's not you and stop lying to yourself". Now that i acknowledged the fact that i am not meant to be self-sufficient, i embrace the fact that i am made in such a way that i can fully understand hurt and identify with others. Perhaps it is God's way of using me to help others who cope as badly as i do. It is a gain and a loss - gain because i am a vessel, loss because you will never forget how it feels like.

But with all the bitterness, silver lining emerges every time. And i am thankful for circumstances that put people together. you know who you are.

Again, apologies if you disagree with my statements and my statements are biased. I just cannot comprehend how people cope so easily with others walking in and out of their lives.

I guess i will never understand the statement, "people come and go. Its the nature of life".

just to clarify, no. me and him are perfectly fine.

A thought came while following a few friend's on tweeterville and fb.

when you're in one, sometimes, you cant help but wonder,

what happens when all vanishes? how would you feel?

3 days grace.

2 weeks - 1 week - 4 days - 2 days = 3 days grace.

the weather is utterly hot and this is what is left of my 3 days grace period.

i'm suppose to be on a 2 week semester break.

but my finals ended on the very last day of exams.

now i am left with one week and 2 days.

and out of the one week, 4 days was dedicated to cf planning retreat.

which left me with 5 days.

and out of the 5 days, 2 days went to orientation for the newbies.

thats how the equation ended up with 3 days grace.

now, out of 4 months of ups and downs, i only get 3 days.

i must say it was a disastrous 4 months.

i nearly underwent a nervous break down twice.

i did not sleep for 33 hours straight and spent it facing a computer typing my 3 research reports.

i woke up more times in the wee hours of the morning studying for exams because i didnt have time to spare. which i never do btw.

i was involved in 2 major college events as planning committee.

i went overseas.

i cried more times this 4 months than 2008 combined.

i was involved in the ucsi corporate video shooting.

we had a lot of downs this 4 months....

a lot of self-searching, bitterness and trust issues.

dealing with our past.

and a lot more which i cant really remember.

Breaking point...do not judge.

you know what isn't very nice...its a little sad even?

i feel a little tinch in my heart when i see Christians judge other Christians. worst of all, you're suppose to be brothers and sisters in christ. it's just a random thought but internal gossips and conflicts are never the best.

judging a person based on what they do in church or in a christian organization only tears the body apart. not to mention, not attending a meeting or conference would make you a bad christian.

sometimes, people have their reasons that many may not understand. its tiring to keep having input and intake all the time. yes, indeed you need to be fired up and all ready when it comes to the work and word of the Lord..but everyone is truly human. people get tired of serving and when that happens, you are in danger.

avoiding burn outs are really the core of it. when you've been serving so much and being caught up with the other things in life, you then know you need to pull back and hit the breaks.

same goes with me. this past 4 months have been my lowest point yet. not everyone understands how truly torturing it was for me and how accomplished i feel for making it through. now then, i have compromised all my holidays because of my priorities for CF and i am left with 3 days before i start again. my life is not my own and i am not worthy to say i am 'entitled' to a break but that i am emotionally and mentally drained. i am exhausted and i would like to retain some things back by not going for more input.

Does that make me any lower than everyone else, now?

some people don't understand that going for say, to a friend's house is not the same as going for a conference. i am not physically tired, it's mentally. so since i am not going for some input, i cannot go to a friend's house? these are total different leagues. yes, rest at home. but what i need is to relax my mind.

i never thought i would say this but people who don't go to church for a period of time aren't bad christians. going to church is very important to me, but i think i understand now why people take breaks...because they need a break before the breaking point. if they have a valid reason for failing to attend church for extended periods, they probably are in a very low place in their life.

having said that, it is important to go to church though.

Trust.

It's odd that I read psychological articles about health and lifestyles on the net. It's odd enough that I read articles on relationships and trust. But i felt like i had to, something caught my eye.

Trust is an essential part of a relationship.

It's good tips, definitely i would say. But i think its truly significant to people who have been hurt before. Trusting someone isn't quite the same anymore, distrusting a person becomes a way of life. It's unnatural to let go without the slightest thought of weariness.

Be consistent.
Be on time.
Do what you say you will do.
Don't lie -- not even little white lies, to your partner or to others.
Be fair, even in an argument.
Be sensitive to the other's feelings. You can still disagree but don't discount how your partner is feeling.
Call when you say you will.
Call to say you'll be home late.
Carry your fair share of the workload.
Don't overreact when things go wrong.
Never say things you can't take back.
Don't dig up old wounds.
Respect your partner's boundaries.
Don’t be jealous.
Be a good listener.

Yeaps. It's worth giving a shot isnt it. sighs.

This is life. But seriously, no matter how hard you try, some things still stick like glue don't they? It's not anyones fault that people have issues. They just are.

that time of the year..

photo:prakashdaniel

i think this site well deserves an update.

it has been begging me for a review of my life.

sadly to say, nothing has been up.

there's the dance for rally, rally meetings, researches, presentations, reaction papers, CF, Left4Dead, scholarship hours, and of course exams.

so much for a life.

Asides from cutting my hair short, spent Valentine's 2 days earlier on a hill in Ampang. Always wanted to spent a sweetnight on a view =) So we ate dinner at Bread & Olive, a rather posh restaurant with a killer view.

And then there was Puteri Gunung Ledang the musical for the 2nd time since they started running. Almost the same as the second season, just more effects. But i must say, i enjoyed this season far better than the 2nd though i was sitting at the VIP box then. And they say you learn to appreciate the better things. Irony.

Oh, and did you know i always thought that if you were forbidden to bring chewing gum into Singapore because of the law, you could just throw it over the border. That way, it would reach Singapore and pass the custom checks. Haha!

I was 10.

thing is, i have absolutely no idea what to do for my research paper.

i feel to young to be here now.

because i became kiasu and wanted to finish my education earlier.

now everything is ahead of my timing.

education, friends, growing up. since i decided to skip a year in elementry, my peers are always older. on average, my uni friends are 21 and above.

geez again.

sometimes, just sometimes, i feel a little inadequate to the babeboy. because of the age.

you're irresistible.

oh hello.

it's only been 10 minutes ago has it? My bad. i forgot that time moves at a slower rate when you're a little sleepy, over the top, and impatient. and a little twisted.

you see, babeboyfriend and I developed a weird habit when we're stressed. One will drag the other to the nearest arcade. Likely this mall 5 minutes drive away from our university.

Since he's been a busy co-organizer of unifest, and i've, well, got head usher of univest, scholarship hours, CF, and tons of research and assignments to do, we've hardly had time for the two of us. So, we headed off to the mall today initially to catch a movie but turned into planning our favourite arcade game time and a little air hockey.

it's nice, two weeks seemed long.

oh and he totally sucks at air hockey.

as it is.

gloomy.

despite bright sunny weathers, clear blue skies and absolute detest for malaysian weather,(i hate hot shines yet i hate cold chills.the irony) i felt gloomy and pain as i dragged my lazy bum out of bed. it's all over, and i couldnt have been more relieved that i can finally breathe. As much complaining as i have done, i actually miss the running around, and getting things done. Contradicting myself. All the aching and frustration finally went into full action as we prepared our last few hours before Unifest kicked off at 630. I ran around making sure everything was in place like a headless chicken since 9 in the morning and till 2am the day before. All the pain in my legs, sweat, and lack of sleep - i complained. But still, i actually do miss it.

I felt gloomy around uni today because things are back to normal. So maybe, every once in a while, i love doing something different, to get excited over your hardwork, and to be part of something. Something huge. I don't know if im really suited for things like these, event managements and being in the planning committee; im still far from being proud of what i did yesterday at the concert or even handling things in the unifest committee but at least i've learnt.

In high school, i never really bothered to take part in anything. Maybe i should have. I never bothered. More precisely, too chickened to go do what i want. It was always..."I always wanted to..." but i never did. So uni is different for me, I feel different. I've gotten opportunities to be who i want to be. I've been given opportunities to be part of things. I feel belonged somehow.Who cares if I've gotten roles because i was connected to people(okay, fine. it sucks at times)I've accomplished big things, so, on my personal resume of life, i think it looks pretty good now. Yet, in awkward moments throughout the process, i longed somtimes to be acknowledged by somepeople. Selfish of me. (this post is full of irony and contradictions)

It's over. The biggest event and concert I have ever been part of a planning committee is done. Moving to bigger things. But i can't deny things look a little gloomy and out of place.

So walking done the road from the carpark in uni wasn't as inviting as it was. Dragging my feet up the stairs was even more torturous due to aching legs.

But familiar faces seem ever as refreshing. At least, a loved one held me with loving arms today and i felt belonged in his car.

simple and easy.

hello pretty people!!

i shall tell you 5 basic and easy steps to becoming jojo-at-this-very-moment. =) how kind of me.

step 1

get involved in the planning committee of many many events in uni, church, and what nots.

step 2

be ambitious and a little studious, take more subjects in a semester.

im taking 5 heavy ones this semester.

step 3

be out and away on plannings, meetings, and practices most of the time.

to be precise, go out for classes in the morning and only return home at 10 or 11. example: go to class at 11. end class at 5. go for dinner at 6. go for meeting at 8. come home at 1030. face the lappie doing work until wee hours.

step 4

go crazy and whine about your lecturers and workload.

4 researches to be carried out, 4 reaction papers, 4 presentations, 1 final presentation, a few projects and assignments, a few quizzes, 3 finals and more. goodness gracious! who in the world does so many things in 4 monthss??

step 5

live your life for the few weeks leading up to the events from hour to hour.

your schedule and check list must go by the hour. example: go to uni at 930. print unifest nametags, print notes, and some errands. go for CF at 1230. run off to class at 2. end class at 430. eat lunch. student council clubs meeting at 5. easter rally meeting at 6. OR go to class at 11. end class at 5. run around looking for people. event at 6. end at 1130. clean up till wee hours.

now, you have official and successfully learnt the 5 basic steps of being jojo. and thebabester.

i pity the babe, he has so many things to think of before unifest. it's difficult being the liaison and one of the key people in the committee huh? that's why i have to be his p.a at times. few more days, few more days babe. hang in thereee.

happy being me, people!

ayer.

its almost the new year. and im not sure im ready to give it up yet.

i've grown, i've matured, i've changed and for the first time, i dont want new beginnings.

these few years have been filled with drama in more ways than one. trust me. too much drama and heartaches. but in the process, i've learnt to cherish, to love, to trust, to open, to forgive, to accept much more than i will ever be able to.

right up to this day, i cannot tell you why God chose to put so much heartaches last year and this, but i believe i'll understand it one day. some day i will.

God wasnt cruel. never. He sent me someone when i was drowning. but, you dont need to know that. Its enough that someone knows, and remembers how today is what it is, what we are, because of yesters.

i don't want new beginnings not because of the satisfaction of my life, but because i have come this far without regrets. If "new beginnings" are what a new year brings, if "new beginnings" are what people want, i rather not have a new year. And i'd rather continue living in this, continuing to learn as it goes along.

i don't want to start again on a clean sheet of paper, it's the dirty crumpled paper that reminds me of what life is and how to be a better person.

cheers to continuing on in year 2009.

Hugs and kisses,

the birth..

the biggest irony in the history of mankind is this of Mary:

"Here is a baby whom she longs to give all happiness and joy of the world, but here is a baby whom came to give happiness to her and all mankind.

Here is a baby who depends on her for food and water, but here is a God whom she depends her whole life on.

Here is a baby who was obedient to her every single word and command, but here is a baby - God whom she obeys."

i just do....

"To love someone is to understand each other, to laugh together, to smile with your heart and to trust one another."

since i was a little girl, i've always told myself that when i get married, someone would read out 1 Corinthians 13 to the congregation as they witness the joining of two madly in love birds share a life together from that significant time onwards.

these words always had a special place in my heart and i made a conscious effort to let them be my guiding lines the day i learn to love another person with everything i have. Love, when you truly understand it, simply is the strongest link, and the purest of its kind. When you love someone, you do not boast, you do not envy, you are not proud, not rude, easily angered, self-seekingly self-centered, always protects, always trust, always hopes, always perseveres and never fails.

But something changed yesterday. And i learnt that no matter how pure and innocently blameless your love for someone is, never. NEVER. ever think things cannot go bad. I learned and tried to love someone as God loved me, pure without conditions. Nevertheless, i failed. miserably.

Jealously is a very poisonous venom. One of a kind and dangerously destructive.

Yesterday, i learned to trust someone and trust myself to my judgements.

Yesterday, i learned to trust myself to someone else and let the words "i love you" simply mean "I LOVE YOU". No more no less, i just do.

No questions asked.

Planner.

i think i need to revise my schedule.

forgive the poor lady for using her blog as a planner for the 1 month which was suppose to be a holiday.

1 December - Bit's dad's birthday dinner.

2 December - Easter Rally 2009 committee meeting.

3 - 5 December - Teaching 10 year old kiddies in vbs.

6 - 8 December - Penang (glorious foood..)

9 - 12 December - Unifest preps.

13 December - JIC choir performance in church.

14 December - Christmas shopping; Medic CG christmas party

15 December - Errands around Uni.

17 - 18 December - Malacca trip (more glorious food)

19 December - Choir rehearsels

20 December - Christmas choir(ladies' meeting)

21 December - Canaan christmas open day.

22 December - Christmas choir(kjgc)

23 December - Christmas shopping.

24 December - Christmas choir(mgc)

25 December - Christmas choir(church)

28 December - Susu's christmas party.

30 - 31 December - Uni orientation; church dinner/watchnight service.

2 - 4 January - CF committee planning retreat.

this is just something i cannot do without. A planner. My life would be a total mess without a planner just because i cannot remember what i have to do. I cannot afford to be spontaneous anymore or my whole life would fall apart, and i would come crumbling down under stress and pressure.

So say hi to my new friend - the planner.

But heyy, at least i remember and retain somepart of my life in detail when i look back at planners. I would really love to write of how year 2008 has been treating me. I would, some time.

cherryhearts.

We are all a little weird, and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.

We were given: two hands to hold. Two legs to walk. Two eyes to see. Two ears to hear.

But why only one heart?

Because the other was given to someone else. For us to find.

For you, with love.

fashionista.

fashion forwards...

i came to a conclusion that all pretty obsessions that include cocktail dresses, gowns, and sundresses are only for show and for drooling purposes only.

its absurd how cocktail tops can be so mouth watering i tell you! absurd. and where am i going to where them to? i couldnt abstain from buying 3 insanely bargained items during a recent shopping treat - yes, that included 2 dresses. and recently would mean, with my twisted ankle shopping i went.

in joannadollyolly's terms, having a fashion magazine is bad for health and the wallet - she'll end up wanting another set of wardrobe styles. was scrolling through elle's, cleo's and female's.

female's obssession.

do you not wish you had a pocket full of spare change that amounted up to 500 bucks so you could by that eclipse and topshop cocktails?

and that banana republic blue.

shop darling, shop!

dear dearest,

it's your birthday today!

I'm glad I was able to make it exceptionally special for you. I regret, however, being unable to be with you on your actual day today but have you come to my house instead to nurse my swollen-golf-ball ankle. Nevertheless, I hope you had a blast at the surprise birthday you never-ever had before yesterday. The things I do for you..tsktsk. I went thru all that trouble to hide the surprise that was spilled and turn it into another blast. Talk about improvs. Anyway, thankyou for putting up with all the ranting and princess-moods I always have and for the times when you always supported me through thick and thin. Im glad you finally realised how much you mean to a lot of people, no more tears okay?

Thankyou for being the wonderful person that you are. Happy 22nd birthday from the deepest utmost depth of my deepest place in my heart.

I remember.

Hope you love it.

Love,

bitsie.

yes, another post.

i suck.
did i tell you that??....no?

okay then. i suck.
i get utterly worked up when my back kills me all the time. a tummy ache that i would kill to not have.okay, maybe not. but anyway, i can't maneuver for nuts. my sense of direction is useless at times. i cant stop buying dresses. my lefty scared leg makes it not pretty anymore. im grumpy when im sleepy. i sleep too much. i fall sick easily. im lazy. i dont get mojos on creative postery photoshop designs very often anymore. i love dancing but refuse to get off my bum bum lately. i am terribly out of shape and stamina. i need to exercise more. i whined a tad too much to some people, mainly him. i am indecisive, and you know it, even in picking out a dress to wear for the dinner. did i mention i get indecisive in picking out nail colours too? im in love with my blacks though. spacial skills are still to die for in joanna's world, because she sucks at it. i can horribly play some arcade game console with out any help in it. i am horrid at speaking in large crowds. i dream and day dream too much about gowns. i eye clothes more than my pocket allows. i am a clutz. i fall down very very often. i cut myself very very often. i get bruises very very often. i give people accidently ouchies, punches, pokes, steps on the foot, scrathes wayway too often. i think too much of what people say. my imagination is too wild for my own good that it scares me sometimes. i am not a good cook. i have absolutely no idea how to bake because i never tried and i want to but the oven gave way. i get bored easily. i drool over cute stuffed animals, nice clothes, and make-ups. my phones are jinxed. all of them. my room is in a mess. i smile even when im not suppose to, which makes me perasan. ah, yes, im too vain sometimes, but thats not a crime because when you are vain like kelvin then its a crime. i cant finish a carls jr. burger but i finished their pickels. i cant watch horror flicks. i dont fancy bittersweet thingamajigs. i have low alcohol tolerance. darn it. i hate dark chocolates and malta. my digestive system is too sensitive. imma' mutant with mutated genetic blood genes. i cannot donate blood, though im O positive. im gaining extras sideways but not on the weighing scale, freaky. i say "later lah" a lot.

there. i told you i suck. hurray me! =)

private.

i have a thought..

i'm more of a private person. actually, i am a private person. i dont appreciate people telling people other stuff about me. no body does. sometimes, people just prefer keeping things to themselves for reasons. when they choose to tell, it's when they feel comfortable and ready to open up to public. i don't fancy the idea of news traveling around, and when they've traveled far and wide, people come and ask youu. that's not a good feeling to have to avoid and tell them you rather keep things to yourself. you'd look bad, trust me. i've been a victim of unwanted news traveling around and i choose to say that sometimes, just sometimes, news that are meant to be kept before traveling have repercussions. people suffer from these news, well, i have suffered my share....but it still works me up having to hear..."i've heard some news.." behind me.

really, sometimes people dont feel comfortable sharing. so stop asking. its good to catch up and ask..indeed, but sensitively know when to stop asking sometimes.
in a journey of self discovery throughout life, i've only realized that i am a more private person in the eyes of public. you know a lot about me, but you don't really know my thoughts or problems. well...at least im public to a few significants.

that's my thought.

hey there baby...

stupid guys. you call em' stupid when they never get the hint that using pick up lines are corny. cheesy. and utterly useless. any girl looking for a man would not fall for a man who doesnt use his brain. any girl in her right man that is. seriously, imagine yourself being approached by a guy with a flat-ass stupid line...You must be a magnet, because it looks like you are attracted to my buns of steel..........."idiot".

but then again...corny lines does work its charm when its used in the right way. but the right people.
word of advise to the guys, filter a pick up line before you use them.

joanna's 5 of not so bad pick up lines that would probably work.but seriously..i think it only works from a boyfriend to a girlfriend....dont count on it if youre trying to win your way to a stranger.

1. I put a drop of tear in the ocean last night for you. And I won't stop loving you until you find that tear drop.

2. I was looking at a light bulb today and it made me think of you and how you light up my world.

3. (hold out hand) Would you hold this for me while I go for a walk?

4. If you were a tear in my eye I would not cry for fear of losing you.

5. You've made me so nervous that I've totally forgotten my standard pick-up line.

6. If I had a rose for every time I thought of you, I would be walking through my garden forever.

7. Hey, where did your smile go? (Check back pocket) Here it is!

8. When I look into your eyes, it is like a gateway into the world of which I want to be a part.

9. Good evening. May a thorn sit down amongst the roses?

10. ..................... cant find any worthy for spot number 10.

cheesyyy..but hey, it beats " I hope you know CPR, cuz you take my breath away!"

in this world...

love is complicated; but it keeps us going for reasons we don’t understand. we love the person, but at the same time, we hate em’ for the heartache they’ve caused.
love is weird; one heck of a weird thing. no matter how much we go thru, we’ll still do it over and over again for the very same person.
why we do it over and over again? because the hurt isnt nearly as bad as living without the person.
i should know that more than anything.

it’s weird.

but still we go on topsy turvy, daydreaming about a single lovely sentence……
i love you…

doesnt mean as much as it used to anymore does it?. but when you stop to think every now and then, it knocks you off your feet. and the person is there to hold you and twirl you around. not like them who sit there scorning at pettily love they think is horrendous and nonsense in a world like this.

flaunt and model it .

i've always had this dream of doing part-time modelling for some major mag company. thinking twice now. its possible, but i just know if it is in my life.
i nearly died this week juggling between photoshoots, studying for exams, last-minute assignment, theHive, awards day. schedules was literally by the hour precise.

okay, fine. maybe it was a tiny bit exaggerated. you'll never take me away from my camera, but seriously. photoshoots arent easy. no thanks to someone also. for protection purposes(mostly me), i will refrain from naming the person.

on a brighter note, im done with hive posters for the year! yips me until big huge unifest concert steps into the picture next year and i have another headache. the year's not even over and i have huge headaches lined up for me next year. so unfair!

awards day was not too long back.
this is one of the moments went you lose your mo-jo in blogging and in photoshop. therefore, you resort to sticking photos all over the blog and edited-less ones too. such a crime to ClickerEditor.

thedays

i was thinking...

since I havent been updating my thingamajigs..i shall tell you what i did on lovely thursday and friday and saturday and sundayy.

so on thursday, we went to ss2 for a meeting on Unifest next year. theHive is planning a massive Unifest with gigs by local artists and our own too. you get the idea...so we drop down at about 7 something looking aimlessly for yippe cup while I was too busy uuuu and ahhhing at pretty gowns. theguys didn't really bother much. And then I got a little disappointed cause murni's wasnt open. reached home about 11ish.
that was thursday.

friday, as usual was CF day. did a little solo acting thanks to mr. kelvin's script.
that was friday.

stayed home on saturday doing nothing and went out for dinner at this chinese place for someone's birthday.

todayy, came crawling back home with a bad tummy ache. and went out at about 4ish. met the gang and whooshed off to general hospital to visit churnhaw the gerbil. hanged out with him till around 8 then left to eat dinner at danau kota. roamed around melawati and now im back home writing useless garbage on my days.
that was today.

good nights my lovelies!!

oh, never ever.

apparently, i manage to scare the pot into thinking i was falling back into my old pitiful-groucy-defensive self. i don't remember the last time i stopped to think of how things have changed or rather how i have ~~changed~~ grown up (compared to last year of course!).
Nah..im pretty much never EVER going to go back there. Cant go back to where you start or what youve learnt doesnt mean a thing right?

Don't worry about me.
You think i would?
fyi,did i mention i love your sandwiches and juice?
thankyou babe!

the loo.

so we were in the middle of a forsaken place.
no offence, but i pity nottingham-ers for being in the middle of nowhere, and sedaya-ians get civilization! :D

i must stop the bad habit of inspecting toilets to judge if it's fit.
literally, dirty loos disrupt my stay. eeks! spoilt..

pretty tattoo in the rain.

*rain rain rain go away(way) come another day(day day)*

there's always a little time for a good laugh =)

when you hav nothing to do, look at your fingernails and act bimbo.

album cover for the guy's EP acoustic hard rock metal album :Rain rain rain go away way.

im attempting a picket and riot against guys.
baby steps, therefore, i start with not putting pictures of the guys. Haha

i'm a meticulous john's critic.
my motto,'the cleaner the john, the happier i become'. it's a good one to live by if you want to be in my good boooks.

toodles!

sakits.

ive broken my own record of blogging 3 times in a day. no life right?
yeaps, it's true when you have mine.
not that im totally complaining or anything. to be truthful, i kinda enjoy spending my time in uni with nonsensical monkeys. it's fun when you say hi to different people every few steps you take.

anyway, that's not the point.
the point is im back from camp and our butts hurt. yes, our ass' hurt and our bodies too.

mish them!

so the mademoiselle has a little more time in hand than she did the past few months.
she's on break for a bit. well, not really.

went up the genting mountain after my psyc paper to meet munchkitymunckins i've mished. it's been 2 years. much has changed since we left school. shen's back from london, so up the mountain they decided considering joanne's leaving too.

i've realised that our teachers would be so muchymuch proud of us if she knew what we would all be in a few years. seriously. a psychologist, a doctor, a pharmacist, a lawyer and an actuarial scientist..ah...the days seem simpler when all of us would just sit cracking on the same subject. now everyone's half way there already! time flies.

mish them really, till we all meet and go crazy again....next year!

me. yan. shen. joanne. claire.
psychologist. pharmacist. lawyer. actuarial scientist. doctor.

Malaysia and the Olympics.

ah well. Malaysia's bright star lost the gold.

Not entirely the match of the season. Expecting way way much more action than seeing Lin Dan whoop Chong Wei's ass. seriously, what would you expect to see with 2 stars players going up against each other with billions as your spectators in the olympics?
Don't blame Chong Wei though. He did the best he could but he failed under pressure. The intense pressure of playing your number 1 opponent, facing Lin Dan's advantage of homeground, and playing in the olympics! oh well. at least Malaysia's on the scoreboard. Considering Malaysia practically never gets it to a medal, he's pretty good and we're proud. The sole winner of a medal...

Good job done!

but did I tell you, Lin Dan's actually kinda ~~cute~~ i mean buff? what.....?

Good night lovelies...! i still think im rambling.
