Une fille comme moi
Je t'aime plus que hier, moins que demain ♥
Welcome to the blog of a 17yearoldgirl, where she posts her mindless musings and ramifications.
This is extremely private;
cos this is where she dreams, sleeps and cries.
She lives. 		"We can catch buses and count our change and cross the roads and talk real sentences.
but our innocence goes awfully deep,
and our discreditable secret is that we don’t know anything at all,
and our horrid inner secret is that
we don’t care that we don’t."
Embracing 2009

Today's the last day of 2008. I'm not exactly very sad about that fact. Later, I'll be attending the annual D&D that my mum's company holds. This year, it's at Shangri-la hotel. I think I'll make sure this is the last year that I'm going to attend this event. Screw her. I'll be better off with friends than family.

I'm sick of her always telling me what to do, always thinking she's right, always thinking that I should comply whatever she say without objection and always feeling that she's superior just because she is my parent. You know what? I don't care whether she is my fucking parent or not, she can beat me to death for all I care if I don't comply what she says. 

My New Year Resolution is:
1. Work hard in JC so that I can go to one of the Ivy League in US and away from my parents.
2. Participate more actively in class matters and attain more leadership skills! (corny, i know)
3. Be more outgoing and generous to friends and people that I wanna be friends with xD
4. Increase my wardrobe size and diversify my clothes!
5. Have better self discipline so that I can do better than 2008 (stop promising myself to do something but end up doing the other)

My New Year Wishes are:
1. Find happiness in JC!
2. Make all the criticism and nagging from my parents disappear!
3. Have the freedom to do legitimate things that I like. (je fais ce que j'aime)
4. Win some competitions (whatever competitions also can)
5. Stay in touch with old friends and languages (chinese and french)
6. Never have to learn chinese again in JC!

That's all I can think of for now. I'm looking forward to my primary school class gathering that I'm organizing with one of my friends. And I'm also looking forward to seeing everyone in 402 again for the class chatlet.

Screw 2008, it's an auspicious looking year on the surface but marred on the inside with the Sichuan earthquake, the financial crisis, the "poisoned milk" incident and whatnot. I sincerely hope that 2009 will be better.

Old habits never change

Fairy lights before the dance party began

I just got back from a gathering with my old 'student care' friends, mainly just me, wang chi and shen tong and some older kids. My old student care teacher organised it and she called like 20 people, only to have around 6-7 turnups. I thought it was going to be really boring with all the line dancing and everything, because there will be all the old uncles and aunties pretending to be youthful and hip (which I hate), but no, it was actually quite fun chatting all night with my old friends. I guess some things never change. The friends I made in primary school always seem to give me a warm and comfortable feeling. I know that they accept me for who I am and there's no need for any pretending because all the barriers were broken when we saw each other grow up 6 years ago. For some reason, me and my friends were seated next to the VIP (Ms Grace Fu, MP for Jurong) and treated like special people during our stay there xD

Aunties dressed in colourful clothing swaying with the beat

I've decided to organise another primary school class gathering since the last one was cancelled ):
Anyway, I've been hooked reading the Twilight Saga. Call me slow but, I'm still in the middle of New Moon. Sorry to dampen your spirits, fans, but I think Stephenie Meyer's twilight saga is RUBBISH compared to Harry Potter and just average compared to all the other books I've read with a proper plot. I seriously don't understand how it became a bestseller, except the fact that it has an incredibly hot vampire who sparkles in the sun and is "greek godlike" and looks like "marble". And the romance? Seriously, korean romances are much much better that that. And New Moon is unbearably draggy in the first 270 pages, where the author insists on spelling out every single miserable detail in Bella's life without Edward. Why am I still reading it? Well, it's like one of those TV dramas that started out good but turned horrible in the middle, but you're still hooked onto it once you've started watching the series and you're afraid that you might miss out some nice action if you skipped a few episodes.

On a lighter note, I'd like you to read the below, written by a reviewer for a "sex scene" in Twilight. [Not for those that does not like crude language]
Trust me, it's good.
I gasped as Edward unzipped his gorgeous, godlike pants, revealing his smooth, white, marble cock. He glared at me with his burning topaz eyes as my fingertips brushed his cold, sparkling, granite dick. My heartbeat quickened. My breath caught. I didn't deserve this. How could I, clumsy, ordinary, plain, clumsy Bella Swan who was only asked to the dance by 3 different lovestruck boys, be so close to a cock so gorgeous, scintillating and godlike? It was like the pale marble cock of Adonis.

In a quick, graceful motion, Edward turned and glared at me. "Don't you see Bella?" he said as he held me in his strong grasp and dry-humped my thigh with annoyance, "I'm a danger to you! You should have nothing to do with me! Every moment you're risking your life!"

"Edward" I gasped "I love you. I will love you forever!" I was in agony thinking of losing him and never again touching his pale, white, cold, gorgeous, sparkling, marble, granite, dazzling, godlike, scintillating Adonis cock. How would I live? He was my life.

He glared at me again with his dazzling, golden eyes and told me with his gorgeous, pale lips "There's something I haven't told you. Something else about my kind."

"What Edward?" I asked breathlessly, "I will love you no matter what. Forever."

He brushed his cold, gorgeous, marble lips close to my clumsy, ordinary ears and whispered "We..."

"What, Edward? I love you. Forever. You can tell me anything."

He gave me his my favourite crooked grin smile and said, "We ejaculate rainbows."

The above, credit to: http://avphibes.livejournal.com/370683.html
You get the idea right?
If you're not so convinced, you can read a Time review here: http://www.time.com/time/arts/article/0,8599,1860716,00.html
and also a slightly less formal one here: http://otahyoni.livejournal.com/130432.html

Sigh, this goes to show how easily you can make money writing crap that appeals easily to teens now.

Merry Christmas :D
Thursday, December 25, 2008, 7:23 PM
The super cute teddy bear xmas tree on display outside Takashimaya, photo taken when I went out shopping with Melly on tuesday. I bought some small xmas gifts for my friends, hairbands for me (I'm loving hairbands now!) and a pair of dramatic fake lashes for my mum's annual D&D. Shopping with Melly is always so fun and enjoyable. 

My Christmas Eve was spent simply with my family, because my grandmother kind of sprained her muscle recently and couldn't walk very well :/ So yesterday, after eating the Christmas logcake, we just played mahjong until midnight, during which I won a lot of times xD Beginner's luck I guess. My Christmas day was spent reading books and procrastinating math. Hopefully tomorrow will be more fun, cos my mum says that she's taking me shopping tomorrow (Boxing Day). I think Christmas is still more fun in the West, where Santas hand out gifts in crowded shopping malls full of people doing last minute shopping and people eat proper Christmas dinners with turkeys with their families over a roaring fireplace while it's snowing outside on Christmas Eve. Singapore's Christmases always bores me, especially when I'm not even Christian and don't get to exchange gifts with people.

How was your Christmas?
Anyway, here's wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a better 2009.
*muacks* I'll see y'all next year across the bridge.

Baking is ♥
Tuesday, December 23, 2008, 11:52 AM
Yesterday, Jingjing came to my house to bake and we made BANANA APRICOT RAISIN CUPCAKE and jelly hearts <3 


The fruit of our labour!

Thin layer of strawberry jam spread on the top of the cupcake with crunchy white frosties :3

This was the first time I made jellyhearts. Jingjing didn't read the instructions for the agar properly the first time and she just poured the agar mixture onto the strawberries without boiling it! And after 1 hour, the agar still didn't set =.= And then I went to read the instructions on the packet again and then I chided jing for not boiling it first. Tsk. I find that the agar is slightly too hard for my liking, I think it would be better if we used JELLY powder instead of agar powder. And the colouring of the agar is too red for my preference, and I can't even see the strawberries instead properly (which I had carefully cut into heart shapes). But the cream cheese and biscuit layer is especially delicious and addictive!

If you remember my post for Candypulp's Christmas Giveaway here, I think you'd be delighted to know that I'm listed as top 20 entries, which means that I'll be getting free goodies from Candypulp! YAY :D

Have a Merry Christmas everyone! I'll be out shopping with Melly later :D

我爱我的姥姥姥爷！
Thursday, December 18, 2008, 1:53 PM
Yesterday, I baked again before I went to the airport to fetch my grandparents. Haha yup, I know, I bake very often nowadays. I wouldn't call yesterday's batch of PAPAYA GLAZED CUPCAKES a huge success because they didn't rise up beautifully like the previous cupcakes I've baked, some of the cupcakes' bottoms were charred, and also the thick papaya icing that I made tasted a little way too sweet ): But overall, I would say the texture of the cupcake is still great and YUMMY! Jing's coming over to bake soon too and we'd be making Banana Apricot Raisin Cupcake. Haha.

Ew. They don't look too nice here )):
Anyway, yesterday the Changi Airport was a huge mess of people, luggage and noise. It was so chaotic and squeezy that I almost didn't recognize it as the nice big spacey Changi Airport that I know. The experience was horrible. Outside the arrival hall, there were this huge mass of people and inside the hall, the poor passengers of different flights had to share their baggage belts. They had assigned around 2-3 different flights per belt, one after the other. I stood there and waited for more than 1 hour before I spotted my grandparents ALREADY OUTSIDE the arrival hall because they were being taken care of by the Changi staff who had wheeled them out from the plane.
The humongous crowd at T1 of Changi Airport. And this was just my right side! You can imagine what the left side looks like...
Anyway, my grandparents are still as strong and healthy as ever. Haha. And my grandmother is super energetic even though she has some leg problems. Once she saw me, she grabbed my hand and started talking in that loud voice of hers and she did not stop at all in the 45mins ride home. I swear my grandmother has this very contagious energy and she can make friends in minutes wherever she goes. Like hello, she knew pratically the life story of the lady who sat next to her on the plane ride over here. My grandmother told me that her "committee" back in China would miss her and her acting in the play (小品) and she said she will continue revising her english here and be a good student for her english teacher xD And my grandfather does not have much health problems and he still insists on waking up early to go down to exercise (even though last night they slept at 12+ am). Haha. Having them here make me so SO happy. And I finally managed to eat a good lunch after so long.

Now, finally, I'm feeling the Christmas mood.

Baking cures my heart
Monday, December 15, 2008, 11:50 AM
Yesteryday, I baked MANGO (STREUSEL) CUPCAKE yesterday and they turned out really really nice as well. Except that I cannot make the streusel, no matter how hard I tried, my streusel turned out gooey instead of crumbly. But the mango and buttery taste of the cupcakes were great though.

The mango slices are additionally placed on top of the cupcakes as well, so that they got soft and baked and their flavour sinks a little into the cupcake. Too bad there's no streusel though, and I got tired and did not attempt to make any icing to replace the streusel after baking 2 batches of cupcakes.

These days I keep having very weird dreams. They disturb me because I haven't been having dreams for a very long time but now I suddenly have dreams on conseucutive nights! And I kept dreaming about things that never happened, but people I know. And the weird thing is that I can remember these dreams in detail after I wake up. In my first dream, I was in USA, in this kind of theme park and I met Deline Soh and the Ajisen supervisor. I ate at Cafe Cartel with the Ajisen supervisor and she offered me to work at Ajisen again! O.o Look how desperate I am. In my second dream, I was with those bitches in 210 and somehow, miraculously and horrendously, they have became EVEN MORE BITCHY than ever. And one of them changed their name to Crisstal or something like that and they were all laughing at me. I think we were seating in a circle in school or something and suddenly, my good friend, I think it was Melly, turned evil too and joinined them together in laughing at me and I was devastated. (Sorry Melly, no offence) Maybe it's because the position of my bed has been changed and I'm not used to it :/ Oh well. 

My mum keep nagging at me to find something worthwhile to do and not waste my holidays away. She wants me to buy those SAT books and bring them home and read D: Horror. And I still didn't manage to get any math done today and later I need to go out to buy a new lightbulb for my bedroom lamp (it blew yesterday nite >.<) And my mum says I should learn something like Japanese or Ballroom Dancing. Sigh. I have resolved to trying to find organizations to do CIP for. 

But on the bright side, my grandparents are coming in 2 freaking days! :D *dances around* And oh, I uploaded a photo of myself on the right column, it's a self portrait I did and edited (: It's done in focal Black&White, so that only my face is in colour. I've also changed the texture of the photo and made it more grainy. I think sometimes I really need photography for me to get things straight and clear. Photography captures things exactly they are, preserved in time without biasness, unlike humans who are sometimes so fake. Clear photos express things people can't say, can't think of and can't see. You should go on to deviantart and see some of the amazing things people capture. I bet you'd feel fuller and happier afterwards (:

Time for Change?
Saturday, December 13, 2008, 7:43 PM
Today I procrastinated and did not do math again. But today, my entire family was cleaning up the whole house to prepare it for my grandparents' arrival xD My dad moved my bed so that now it's directly parallel to the windows, which will allow my mum to put an additional mattress next to my bed to sleep in. And all 3 beds in my house had new bedsheets, pillow covers and blanket covers as well.

This is my bedroom now that it has been moved. The walls are so bare! ): And on the left hand corner, there is actually a night light in the shape of a crescent. But the bed frame nearly covers up the entire crescent ): At the right side, there are two shelves installed into the walls full of all my junk xD

I painted my nails jet black on Thursday night at 1am, removed them on Friday afternoon. I'm looking at my wardrobe and thinking I've got nothing to wear again. Something's not really right with me :/ I'm far too restless for myself. I'm also thinking of revamping my room, because currently the walls are just too bare and unbearable. Originally when I decorated my room and chose the furnishings, I guess I was going for Japanese Zen, but now I think I really need some colour. I was thinking of buying another big round mirror and put it up, together with some printed out photos of whimsical things, I think I can find those on deviantart. And I want to buy three more cheap cushions to stack them up on my rug, I shall use old Tshirts to make the cushion covers. I also want to paint an Effiel Tower on my wall and then trace out its outline with small xmas tree lights! And I want a Shinzi Katoh kind of feel, meaning that I want to write french like "Aujourd'hui est superbe pour une picnique" or "Vous etiez belle" or other random lines.
Pics I grabbed from the net:

This bedroom is BEAUTIFUL. There's no other way to describe it. I love the "It's beautiful here" rack above the metal frame of the bed. And the wallpaper is so pretty, with different shades of blue. And the white frame of the bed and blue sheets and the kitty kat combines together so well! I want this bedroom >.<

I like this one as well! It's got this spacious, open, fresh and green feeling about it. The vertical stripes make the bedroom seem even more spacious. But it doesn't have that homey feeling the first one gives.

Oh well, if you have any suggestions, just tag me. Meanwhile, you can see my Christmas wishlist here -->


5 more days!
Friday, December 12, 2008, 9:37 PM
Five more days till my grandparents arrive in singapore! Five more days till I can resume normal family life! Five more days till I can eat 3 meals daily! Five more days till my mum hopefully turns into the mum I used to have!

Friggin five more days. Sigh.
Tomorrow is another saturday, aka cupcake baking day again! :D Yay. I shall attempt to bake Mango Streusel Cupcake. Cupcake baking shall become my profession, I don't care about getting a job anymore. After all, I can earn $60 within 2 hours again next week doing another temporary assginment. $150+$60+hopefully another $150= $360! More than what I can get doing those $6/hour jobs definitely (:

I watched the Twilight movie online yesterday. I think I should start getting all 4 books of Twilight. Maybe not Breaking Dawn since my friends told me that the last book was sucky...so I'll buy all three books then. The quality of the movie was quite good and I've fallen in love with Robert Pattinson all over again. He's so hot. AND cute! I have now came to a conclusion that I may like guys with thick brows, straight noses and fierce eyes. First it's Ed Westwick, now it's Robert Pattinson. Haha. Chace Crawford is a hot guy too, but I get repulsed by his womanizing character on Gossip Girl. Speaking of which, I cried watching Gossip Girl's latest episode! It's the first time I cried watching Gossip Girl, Chuck Bass, the used-to-be bad boy now breaks my heart ): But finally Blair and Chuck can be together! <3

Arh, I'm rambling. And I still didn't finish doing my math papers! Everytime I look at them, I can repulsed away, as though there's a barrier. But thankfully I don't get migraines now trying to do them. Stupid math D:

Now this post sounds like Michmich's or Jingjing's posts. I must end it xD

Home? It's only a house.
Tuesday, December 09, 2008, 9:52 PM
This post is coded, meaning that it's personal, meaning that you probably shouldn't attempt to decode it and read it. 
The following people, are however allowed to read it: Melly, Adeline and Jean.

I'm so sick of my mother. She is a selfish, heartless and bitchy to her family. I bet she treats strangers even better than the way she treats me and my dad. So she's in a bad mood. But being in a bad mood does not entitle her to come and go and trample on people close to her as she please. It does not excuse treating people without respect. 

Today when she came home, I expected her to go straight to her room and watch tv dramas online again. But no, she had to make my life even more miserable before she watches her daily dramas. She blamed me for not being able to find a job, not going for the CottonOn interview (it wasn't even like I can get that job even if I do go for the interview), not making full use of my life, not buying SAT related material to read, not going to buy JC related accessment books and other kind of disgustingly unrelated things. And when I accidentally took out a wrong container to store the leftovers, she screamed at me and mockingly asked me whether I knew what a container was. Who is she to treat me like shit? I have done nothing wrong but seat at home and read fiction books and surf the net. Wtf. If she expects me to hang on to her every word and carry them out exactly the way she wants it, she's going to pay big time.

I'm just not some ragdoll that she can boss around and use her authority as a parent to her selfish advantages. I'm somebody with feelings and legitimate reason to hate her. No matter how bad her mood is, I do not deserve to be trampled on and later ignored whenever she felt like it. I am not her personal servant who is obliged to carry out her commands. 
Fuck her. She's the one ruining everything and driving everyone insane in this family. 

I am so sick of everything she does I just wish that she'll just lock herself up in her room forever. What a hell lot of a mother.

Brrr... Santa save me.
Monday, December 08, 2008, 4:02 PM
Today is such a cold and freezing day! So cold that I need to be under my heavy blankets all day in order to keep my hands and feet warm. In order to amuse myself today, I baked CHOCOLATE COFFEE CUPCAKE. It turned out fantastically successful for once and the texture of the cupcake was just right - moist and soft.

However, I did not make the icing, because I did not stock up on whipped cream and the icing pipes just cost too much to buy ):

All these thanks the cupcake recipe book I found in the library, and now I can bake many many delicious cupcake. The book is called TEMPT Cupcakes to Excite by Betty Saw and contains numerous recipes of cheesecake cupcakes, chocolate flavoured cupcakes, fruit & nut cupcakes, yoghurt cupcakes and many many more.

Here are some of my work for you to savour on:
They look so yummy right? Haha. My dad ate two (he couldn't resist it) and me and my mum both ate one each. Maybe I'll post them up online to sell and see how the response is like :D
Who want to buy homemade rich dark Chocolate Coffee Cupcakes for Christmas? :3

B&J Chunk Fest
Sunday, December 07, 2008, 3:03 PM
Yesterday I went to the Ben & Jerry's Chunk Festival with Adeline and Melly just for fun. However, it was not so fun after all since we had decided to stand for more than 1hour in the mud that keeps oozing into our feet. And I got my new shoes from Charles and Keith dirty and now I'm trying desperately to clean it ))):

But apart from that, we managed to eat some of the exclusive flavours from USA. Melly had Vanilla Chocolate Chunk, Addie had that too and I had Chocolate Fudge Brownie. Vanilla Chocolate Chunk wasn't that great, because the chocolate was just broken pieces of hard chocolate, which you get tired of after a while. But I thought the Chocolate Fudge Brownie was great due to the soft chewy fudge brownie bits inside. After all, what makes Ben and Jerry's so famous is all the heavy ingredients they put in their ice cream after all. But I still think their ice cream texture is so-so as compared to the rich, creamy taste of Island Creamery. I'm still sore over why Island Creamery don't try to expland and set up more branches, because their ice cream is simply great. Besides, Island Creamery makes their own ice cream and desserts everyday, so everything there is fresh, homemade on the day you buy it (unless of course, you buy back pints of ice cream to take home). Island Creamery has one main branch at Serene Center and one at Great World City and that's about it. No matter what, I still think Island Creamery is the best ice cream I've ever tasted, even better than Haagen-Daaz. 

Thanks to the mud at the chunk fest, we just grabbed our ice cream and went home and did not manage to enjoy the other fringe activites which included tarot card reading, crystal ball reading, caricaturists and body painting :/ Oh well.
Melly got sick in the middle of queuing as well and she didn't even finish her ice cream properly ): [to melly: i'll treat you to island creamery next time!]

Anyway, my maternal grandparents are finally going to come to Singapore after all and I can't wait. I probably mentioned it dozens of times, but I'm so glad they're coming cos they'll definitely help in improving the condition of my family now. I'm so SICK of my mum lately, literally. She just locks herself up in her own watching tv dramas on her computer all day and when she comes out, all she knows is to yell at people and treat me like shit and scold me over nothing. Whatever, she's such a bitch now I shall just ignore her. I hate it when she does this to people. Sure, she doesn't mean it, she'll probably forget about the incident but does she realise the damage that she inflicted on others? If she's pissed, then just don't come out her frigging room at all and stay locked up in there all day.

Sigh. I need some Island Creamery to cheer me up. I should buy dark chocolate later, it's my medicine.



Tis the season to be shopping ~
Wednesday, December 03, 2008, 1:36 PM
Above: christmas shopping in Mumbai

Christmas is always a jolly and merry season because people know that they have a legitimate reason to spend money (: That is also why more people go broke during Christmas. This is a guide to introduce beginers to the world of online shopping, which will not only save you a lot of money during Christmas but also provide you with more gift choices.
[This blog post is an entry to Candypulp's Chirstmas Giveaway Competition]

I personally love online shopping, ever since melly introduced it to me last year, because:

1) You save money!
You can save money buying both brand new clothes of reputable brands and also buying preloved/almostbrandnew clothes from other people online.
For example, clothes purchased from FOREVER21 online will usually cost a lot cheaper than the clothes that you find in retail stores. Most of the time, I go down to the local forever21 stores to find and try on clothes that I like and then purchase them online via sprees at lj spree communities: spreesgalore, _spreee, sgspree, spreehouse etc
You can also purchase preloved clothes from other people online at sgselltrade. Most of the clothes posted online at sgselltrade are either completely brand new or was only worn 1-2 times and still kept in mint condition.

There are also numerous blogshops set up on lj selling VERY fashionable apparel at a lower prices than stores. These ljshops normally update frequently and bring their customers the latest fashion trends and sometimes even exact replicas of branded clothing at a fraction of the original price.
Some ljshops to take note of: nellyjoy, scarletroom and bonitochico - sells fashionable apparel. Their clothes are very popular and are always snapped up at soon as a new collection is launched.
Candypulp - sells apparel, accessories and cute novelty lifestyle products that everyone enjoy. I particularly like their collection from Cheap Monday and also the wide variety of bangles, bag charms and delectable mini food ear studs.

2) There is a greater variety of clothes and products online.
Firstly, you can get your hands on a lot of clothes from brands that are not common/not available in Singapore. Eg: Charlotte Russe, ASOS, Old Navy, Hollister, Aeropostale, American Apparel, Abercombie & Fitch and the highly creative graphic tee brand: Threadless. As for the brands that are found in Singapore, you normally can find a greater variety of clothes online as compared to retail stores.,
Besides clothes, you can spree for taiwanese/japanese/korean cosmetics, Lomography cameras, shoes, bags, Korean accessories and stationery, books, health and grooming products and pretty much everything else you can think of.

3) It's so convenient!
In order to shop online, you simply need to browse, select, click and pay, all done in the comfort of your own home. The items will then be delievered via post to your doorstep. You don't even need to waste your time to standing and waiting for the fitting rooms, you can simply purchase clothes according to your body measurements.
Don't worry about being scammed, because most of the spree organizers and users selling clothes on lj are registered with a feedback link so that users with more than 5 -ve feedback are banned from the community (:
And that, is why I love online shopping. It is fast, easy, cheap and convenient --- everything that you want in a shopping experience. A bit of warning though, it can get addictive and turn you into a shopaholic :D

And below's MY CHRISTMAS WISHLIST:
High waisted skirt
Leather jacket/blazer or some other smart outerwear
Clothes from forever21 or topshop
Korean 2009 planner
Happiness in my family

December. Already?
Monday, December 01, 2008, 8:24 PM
I thought that I should at least make an attempt to blog today, since it's the first day of December. My life is now so hugely boring that I have nothing to blog about. And I miss hiphop dancing, it was slightly disappointing to find out that after the first MAD hiphop open class that I went to, there were no more upcoming classes.

Seriously, what do YOU guys do at home? Pent up and sit in front of the computer all day? Work? Go shopping? I need someone to play with me, badly ): I'm still desperately trying to find a job, if only my job at ajisen didn't turn out to be such a horror :/ Today I went to apply for a job at Fish & Co. and I managed to pass the interview successfully (the manager liked me!) but the thing is I may have to work at the new outlet at West Coast Plaza instead of IMM ): Oh well, desperate times calls for desperate measures. 
Fish & Co. offers an on-the-job training for 3-4days, which consists of cashering, waitressing and some other roles. They do give a $45 pay at the end of the training, however, regardless of whether you get the actual job or not. The job pays $5.50/hour. Reasonable, but right now I really need a job that I can really START WORK IMMEDIATELY. Tomorrow I'm going to the interview at Long John Silver's, just in case. They pay $5/hour. 

And I pray that my grandparents hurry up and fly to Singapore already! I can't wait for their arrival. I wish I had a dog or a cat so that at least I won't feel so neglected and bored at home. I'm so sick of life right now I can't wait for school to start >.<

PS: Anyone wanna call me out to play? :D
