So, 3yrs ago I was anxiously hoping Simon would get a bouquet of flowers for me on special occasions. I waited and waited and there was none. So I changed my mind and requested for a stalk instead. But Simon was not convinced about the idea of getting flowers just because I like them. He feels that flowers will eventually wilt and die, so there is no point in getting them. I agreed with him and asked "Why not you get a fake one instead? It will last forever." I thought my reply was a clever one, but he smiled at me with his signature impish look and said "No".

I stopped my nonsense for a while and forgot about the whole flower issue. Occasions like Valentine Days, Birthdays, Christmas, "the day we met" came and went. My eyes would sweep pass girls who carried bouquets and it stopped there.

Simon finally got one last year on Valentine. Although it was not a surprised surprise, because he announced to me before stepping into the store to get one, I was elated. But to think the flowers reduced to this state now:

Upon seeing this, I promise not to ask for a stalk again. It was placed in an almost forgotten corner of my room and I am really disappointed with myself. I can't discard it because it is from Simon and I have a sort of illusion that if I threw it away, I am abandoning my love away as well. But it will gradually be infested with bugs? So I am wondering now, did those girls I once envied on the streets, have their rooms piled up with infested bouquets without knowing it? or they are in the forbidden kingdom?

Flowers are definitely beautiful and pleasing to the eye, but I think I will not feel the same way about it as much as before when I think a gift from someone will eventually rot and be forgotten, espeacially its from my love ones.

Dua Yi and PoPo are 2 very amazing women I have ever met. They are funny, cool and lovable. Dua Yi's from Hong Kong and it's our 2nd time meeting her. Ming and I could bond with her real quickly despite meeting for the 1st time(2008) in 20yrs:)

So it was a tour along the stretch of road in Orchard. Mum wanted to show Dua Yi the lightings, and PoPo claimed it is her 1st trip to Orchard in her life! We had so much fun strolling with the 2 ladies, laughing, talking mixed in Hokkein and mandarin and snapping pictures away. Although I usually avoid places with huge crowds, I actually felt the importance of people yesterday. Without the people, I think the mood for the festive season would not be " feelable" The purple christmas tree was people's favourite, I think.

Going crazy with the Purple Christmas tree

An investment I will make for life on myself is Sunscreen:) I've been using sunscreen since I was 15. So during this span, I have tried several brands: Neutrogena, Bio-essense, Silkpro Supersun BlockSilk, Loreal (currently using), Garnier, Nivea and The Faceshop. But my favourite from the bunch is Silkpro! The Suncreen feels light my skin and it covers up almost all the flaws. It is non greasy for me and I love the beige creamy colour ^^ It is an inexpensive product ($17 plus) considering the 50ml tube can last at least 2mths for daily application on 3 faces (mum, ming and mine).

Going to trying the Bodyshop Sunscreen next. Yahoo! I've been contemplating about getting IQQU Sunscreen (Michelle Phan's Skincare Line), beacuse:

1. It is a new product, heard good and not so good reviews about it

2. It is expensive for me, $48.06 for 30ml

3. Can only be purchased online (http://www.iqqubeauty.com/)

4. What if I love the product so much that I want to get it again and again?

I really like its packaging

Having healthy skin is an obsession for me, but I am far from it.

Random: Feast at Fish and Co. with Ming(:

Almost all the money I earned during this holiday went poofed! within 3 weeks. sigh. Not becos of shoppings thrills but medical fees. sigh sigh sigh. Thought I could save some money for the Boston trip, but I guess I have to work extra hard during the next holiday.

Spent 30plus at Picton clinic first, went to Raffles medical clinic next (bcos condition was not improving) and another 30plus gone. Today went to see Dr Lau, specialist at Mt. Elizabeth and $259 is gone in less then 5 mins! All bcos of my right ear:( Blocked and stuffed with disgusting ear wax and horrible pus which made me partially deaf for about 2 weeks.

Have yet to get my school books, so another sum of money would be gone again. Each time I think of money, I wished I had been braver to request for a higher pay.

$200 per person for 3D 2N in Genting for a 3 star hotel plus to and fro trip by bus and 2 morning breakfast buffets, not too bad for me:)

Genting was not as cold as I thought it would be. Temperature fell between 17 degrees to 19 degress when we were there. Ming could still wear Cotton-on shorts with T-shirt and strutted around! It was shopping and shopping for us, there were massive 50% discounts everywhere.

I had a fun time snapping tons of photos with Ming:) I enjoyed the trip considering it was a 1st without our parents. But one thing to note: toilets were mostly yucky -.- shit stains were splattered around.

I feel like a dried up fish.

Aimless. Unmotivated. Lazy. Lethargic. What else? Constipated. I hate these choking feelings. *all bcos of assignments?*

How can life be more exciting in a good way? I wish the days in my life could be more colourful.

~Some scattered thoughts~

What do people mean when they say "Seriously I am going to kill somebody" I know they are not going to kill, so is there a need to add "seriously" plus in the most irritating tone?

Ming makes the clothes look wearable and nicer.

Ma was just lying on the floor with one hand spread out and another one on her chest and her with mouth opened slightly wide. She looked like someone had bong into her and she fainted right on the spot.

Temptation of wifes

Humour. Rage. Empathy

I think all women will be vicious when their marriage are threatened.

Does such/similar revenge takes place in reality? Seeking revenge is so complicated, and if I were to do so, I think I'd have aged a thousand years. If you are filthy rich and a genius, it might work out, if not, forget and just dream about it.

But I think I'd not react lightly too if I encounter similar situations as the characters in the story. It made me feel so sad to see how 2 ladies tortured one another till the reaching point and reduced to almost nothing in the end. The script writer had displayed many juicy ideas, so I wonder if he or she is capable of committing those evil deeds?

I hope all these just stay in the screen.
