I dreamt that i was blogging and perhaps i really should post an entry. It's been far too long. My blog's so stagnant that its been breeding some really harmful pests. Truth is, i did try to update last week but photobucket had some problem and that led to me restarting my laptop and losing some entries on this blog. So i'm gonna try to use ql's method of posting photos using blogger.
Met up with the girls yesterday and what fun we had! It has become a weekly affair.. It's like a drug you know? You have to have it at least one week or you'll suffer from withdrawal symptoms. And high we did feel from all that laughing and according to yt, her grape juice, which i seriously doubt it. Admit it babe, I'm the reason for your laughters. Ha ha ha. Looks like Friday's girls' day out for us as we'll be having our next weekly meet on a friday no less.
This is gonna be really back dated but darling surprised me with a rented car on Thursday, the night before Good Friday. Thank God for him i would say for he really cheered me up considerably. I know it hasn't been the best week for us baby but i was glad we made it through everything. Brought me to this really cool bar at Dempsey Road call Oosh and ooh did the evening go well with me downing two huge pints of beer! Luckily i had baby to drive me home. Thanks darling, for such a wonderful night out.
The trio at taka before the craziness began
Darling driving his rented car. A really cute suzuki swift!
*waiting for blogspot to upload the photos.. And while i'm at it, i need a tan. Seriously.*
At Oosh bar, when things were still pretty calm
Yeah that's a shot of us when i've not drunk anything. Yet.
Yup, i've had a glass already but baby seems fired away!!
And they say alcohol makes people do crazy stuff. Having drank 2 pints already, i look more normal compared to someone who's had only *gasp* cranberry juice!!
Our only mean of transport for those two wonderful days.

I seem to be having my term break like all other primary, secondary and junior college students. This week's really relaxing for me as i've been asked to go on leave by one of the tuition kids just for this week alone. Really enjoying the lazy afternoons and the constant slacking not to mention slacking.
It's not even halfway into March and i am broke. I still feel the urge to spend alot of money though. Old habits die hard. I was walking past Charles and Keith again today and i had the urge to walk right in and buy myself another pair of shoes. I couldn't resist the "Final Reduction! SALE! 30%!" sign. However, as i was rushing home, i didn't get in there. Perhaps i will go again on Thursday.
I'm getting really sick and tired of all my tuition assignments and sometimes i wonder why i'm slogging so hard for when i should have ample time for work and play. Well, i've got ample time for work but play, never. Thinking back of all those classes i wanna take before school ended, french, dance, windsurfing, what have you. I just didn't realise any of it save for dance classes. Maybe i really should listen to my dears and not slog till i die.
Been thinking alot on what i've said to you recently, for the past few months at least and i realised that i do not want that anymore. Everything's just a fantasy and i know it will all go away soon. Words are cheap. Someday when you least expect it, you'll realise that you said all these just for that moment because you thought you were in it. You felt so strongly but then when that moment has passed, you think back on what you really say and start to ponder if this is what you really wanted. It isn't, at least for me.

"It's better to have loved and lost than not to have loved at all"
"You are everything i've dreamed of but everything that's wrong"
"Are you meeting that guy in blue?"
I'm sure you guys would have realised that i took these from the movie The Leap Years. I guess i shouldd reply a 'yes' to my previous question. I have already met that guy in blue. Sweet baby surprised me with a pair of movie tickets to catch the Leap Years after my meet-up with the girls. No wonder he asked me not to be late. Thanks baby, i really enjoyed the movie and you are that guy in blue...
Talking about the girls, i finally met up with them yesterday after disappearing from the scene for two weeks! We laughed, we shopped, we ate and we spent money! It was a day well spent for we got clothes for our teaching practicum and shoes as well. Yt, i understood what you meant by referring to me as the biggest winner having two new additions to my shoe cabinet, a mango skirt as well as a G2K button blouse. Told you we've been working hard at spending our moolahs.
Thanks for such a wonderful day girls and i'm looking forward to the following week. You guys light up my life and i can't live without you. I love you guys...

It's finally here - the details of my teaching practicum. I've waited a whole year for this day to come and now that it has, it seems so surreal. The realisation that everything's more or less confirmed is starting to really freak me out. What shall we do now girls? Shopping, shopping and more shopping of course!
It's been exactly a year since i left for China. Time really does fly huh? I remember myself a year ago, lying on the hostel bed vowing to do all i can for time to pass. Tried to make myself as busy as possible by watching taiwanese dramas, signed up for dance lesson and the enthusiasm only lasted one lesson. Luckily the course fees cost 150RMB instead of 120 sing dollars over here. The third batch of CHS students left on the 28th february last week. I wonder if they're adjusting to the life in China just fine. I wonder if they're experiencing the same chilly winds as we did last year. I wonder if their all pissed of with WJ like we were (i guess its all still a little early to tell).
I recently bought two shirts and a jacket from Esprit. But before you guys start thinking that Karmene's filthy rich, wait a minute. I bought all the clothes at a sale which means that a normal shirt was sold for 15 bucks instead of a costly $24.90 and the jacket costs $53 instead of a whopping $109. Pretty good bargain and i'm happy with my buys. Next up - black pants and skirts, more shoes!!!
So glad that i'll be meeting yt and ql this friday. It's been 2 weeks since i last met up with them! Tuition and all. Looking forward to it and i miss you guys!
Did i also mention that i hate hypocrites? I happen to have another hypocrite among my friends and to think she twirled me round her little finger. I actually obediently let her play with me this way. Never. Never will this happen again. You little scheming bitch, don't ever let me see you again.

I couldn't resist not writing anything today since its the 29th of February and it would be 4 years later before i get to see it appear on my blog page again.
I've been on a shopping spree recently what with my pay coming in and getting paid from tuition assignments. I couldn't resist getting into any shop possible at Orchard Road just to browse through their selections. Been hooked on to button shirts recently as i'm gonna need alot of them when i start my teaching attachment come july 2008. Well, it's just an excuse to spend those moolahs. Then again, button shirts nowadays are not only designed for work but also for casual wear. I try to psycho myself into believing such so i wouldn't feel so guilty about spending my hard earned money.
I've been fairly amazed at myself recently for being so hooked on to chinese books. A habit rarely seen. I'm proud of myself nonetheless. Basically, chinese books revolve around just one topic - love. Its not those sappy love stories but heart wrenching stories of people who sacrifice everything for love. I've just finished reading this book by Zhang Xiao Xian. A good read i would say and that brought fantasy to me. If only, i could meet a guy half as good as him, i wouldnt mind giving up a few years of my life.
It's the 29th of February today lads. What have you guys planned for this day that comes once in four years? I envisioned it to be really romantic, a day out with the love of my life, whispering sweet nothings into his ears and promising him a lifetime of love and care. A pity The boyfriend's at work and all that accompanies me now are my friends online. Appreciated nonetheless. A wonderful 29th February at home, sipping Ice Lemon Tea from Macdonalds. Now, that's life.
One day, that little heart may just stray...
