The xmas party last night was quite success! Though Weiming and I are now fully qualified SAF chefs with broken arms. But yes, the food was lovely, especially weiming's home-baked cheesecake and ice cream and gwyn's cupcakes (dude fucking is like rocks!). haha .. I think I nearly died from all the eating.. Anyhoo, here's the photos from the party with our festive red and green cutlery!
Please look closelier at XB's hot face.
Cheers and Merry Christmas guys! And thanks Gwyn for my lovely present! :D

Girl
Listening to Lolita by Stereophonics
I feel.. like a druggie. I've been sooo stoned in my waking hours. I slept nearly 30 hours since yesterday. And i was only awake for 2 and 4 hours inbetween for meals and whatnot. Been trying to make a super-speedy recovery from my fever/flu/whatever so that I can make it to steph's last Mambo tonight. I'm loads better now though.. been on a downloading spree.. just downloaded like 5 albums. I'm quite hooked on Gym Class Heroes's Cupid's Chokehold, maybe cause MTV's been brainwaswhing me.
Okay, to redeem myself after succumbing to mainstream hip hop. I chanced upon this band called Nada Surf, which sounds quite promising (particularly this song called Always Love). And the album that I downloaded, called The Weight is a Gift, was produced with Death Cab for Cutie's Chris Walla.
But ya. Apart from that I haven't been doing anything else today. My fever's been bouncing back and forth but hopefully i'll be up for clubbing by tonight (:
"Girl you got me going
Don't you wanna fly?"

Listening to Let That be Enough by Switchfoot
I can't wait to
get back on my bike and
do some shopping and
go dancing and
hang out in holland v. and
laugh with charbee & co and
waste time at spinellis and
shout out the lyrics of the songs i love
at Beat and
copy the moves
at Mambo and
take a ride down to Bishan and
spend time with my boy and
visit Priya at SIM and
and.. omg i just need to get better and out of my fucking house.
Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me?
All things are gonna happen naturally
Oh, taking your advice and I'm looking on the bright side
And balancing the whole thing.
Oh, but at often times those words get tangled up in lines
And the bright light turns to night
Oh, until the dawn it brings
Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me
Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just read of
Others only read of, of the love
Of the love that I loved

Listening to Heart in a Cage by The Strokes
it seems
the nearer I am to the end
the harder it gets
freedom and hope,
courage and strength,
have all left me
i feel my body and soul
have been nailed to a cross
and if i thought i could take the pain
i was so wrong..
i don't know pleasures anymore
if there is a God out there
please have mercy on me..

Listening to Losing my Way by Justin Timberlake
what do you do when you're living in hell
and you forget what your happy place looks like
because the light at the end is miles away
and you look forward to darkness so much
because you pray for rest
but sleep doesn't bring you peace
and you wake up suffering still
Can anybody out there hear me?
'Cause I can't seem to hear myself
Can anybody out there see me?
'Cause I can't seem to see myself...
There's gotta be a heaven somewhere
Can you save me from this hell?
Can anybody out there feel me?
'Cause I can't seem to feel myself
please if there's anyone out there who can help me.
i'm fucking begging you to fix me.

Listening to Kings Horses by Jet
Is it ok if I don't make it?
Is it ok if I don't come around?
The light is fading and the sun has gone down
bring it all back, bring it all back, bring it all back
Where's the day that never ended?
Tell me when it's time to open up my eyes
Light the morning with the sun in the rise
bring it all back, bring it all back, bring it all back
For all that you do
For all that you had
For all that you said
Would you take it all back?
When all that you see
Is much more than you have
I will bring it on back, bring it on back, bring it on back
You wont know me 'till you need me
But I wont let you down so open up your eyes
The day is done the sun has set in the sky
Be on your way the sun has set in the sky
bring it all back, bring it all back, bring it all back
For all that you do
For all that you had
For all that you said
Would you take it all back?
Just because your eyes are open
Doesn't mean that you see
So where do we go?
Well, that's between you and me
Is it ok if I don't make it?
Is it ok if I don't come around?

Goodbyes
Listening to Shine On by Jet
This post is for Jules.
I don't really know where to start. We all knew that this was coming. And what feels like a long time ago you came to me and asked for advice about going to Uni. And to me it had been a friend asking for advice and that was that. It seemed like something that wouldn't really happen. And we got through school and came out laughing, had our holiday together and I guess I might've pushed it to the back of my head, your inevitable departure. Maybe I didn't really want to believe it was true, or maybe I didn't want to start getting all emotional everytime i met you.
And at the airport last night, when you asked me if I was stoned. And i laughed and said no. I was really fighting hard not to cry because I knew you would too and you'd probably call me an asshole for making you cry and it would just make us look like two retards crying. But you said I was strong enough and I wanted to be for you. I know I caught your eye a couple of times at the airport and some kind of sadness would pass between us.
And the closer we came to your time of departure, the more memories filled my mind of the times we had together. Honestly speaking if I was to try and list them all out I wouldn't have been able to. The most prominent was probably at Beat last week, when we went to the toilet together and we talked about you leaving and making new friends. I know you'll be okay but I have never once doubted how fucking lucky I am to have met people like you and the rest of charbs and co.
At the time when I last hugged you, i felt there were so many things I wanted to say to you but i felt them choked back when you looked at me and you mumbled something like 'ohcheebye' haha.. and we couldn't seem to look each other in the eye. I'm sorry to get all emotional on you here, but Shine On has been on loop on my playlist and I've been getting all teary over my computer. I thought I'd be so used to people leaving, but I really miss you like fuck.
Juli, please take care of yourself there. I hope you know how much you mean to all of us, and we love you (:

yeah i'll fight
He wants to give but he’ll give himself away
She wants to take but she’s taking all she can
They’ve got it all figured out
He wants to listen but there so much more to say
She wants to shout it out loud but she doesn’t
She doesn’t open her mouth
Had enough of crying
When she’s happy and smiling when she sad
Had enough of wondering
What became of all the dreams he had
Are they out there somewhere
Can you remember the way it used to feel
We'd run as fast and as far as we wanted to go
But then the walls closed in
And I was one step forward and two steps back
Two steps forward and three steps back
Oh it’s all too much
So take my hand we’ll jump together
Baby I won’t leave you on the inside
Together we can make it on the outside
You and me on the outside
Shine your light on me and I’ll shine my light on you.

Gold dust
Listening to Somewhere a Clock is Ticking by Snow Patrol
The weirdest thing happened today
i saw a moth in the sink
it was shiny of
brilliant gold
and as i turned the tap
and tried to drown it
i swear gold dust came off it
and as it swirled and struggled
i thought of it's life
and it's death
and the possibility
that it bled shimmery gold
and as it's blood leaked into the drain
I saw it's final attempt to show me
how beautiful it's life had been
...i'm getting so philosophy. haha

kiss me
Kiss me out of the bearded barley
Nightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.
Kiss me down by the broken tree house
Swing me upon its hanging tire
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me
..i can't wait for Bankok (:

The Rainmaker
Listening to The Girls by Calvin Harris
I was looking through some old photos and getting really sad, about growing up. I had a talk with my mum today about my future, shit like investing in property and it was so exciting thinking of getting my own place and being independent but on the other hand I'll be so sad to grow old. AND OMFG I'M WEARING A LINKIN PARK T-SHIRT IN THAT PHOTO HAHAHAHAHHA
wah good times my friends, good times. hahahahahaha omg i love you guys
---
i wonder what it's like to be the rainmaker
i wonder what it's like to know that i make the rain
i'd store it in boxes with little yellow tags on everyone
and you can come see them when i'm...done, when i'm
done
i wonder what it's like to be a super hero
i wonder where i'd go if I could fly around downtown
from some other planet, i get this funky high on yellow
sun
boy i bet my friends will all be...stunned, they're stunned
straight up, what did you hope to learn about here
if I were someone else, would this all fall apart
strange, where were you, when we started this gig,
i wish the real world, would just stop hassling me
please don't change, please don't break
the only thing that seems to work at all is you
please don't change, at all from me
to you, and you to me..

Easy
Listening to Let's Lightning by Pull Tiger Tail
ok first of all, JET completely blew my mind away. I mean it's common knowledge that they are not the hottest looking bunch in the world but when Nic Cester swaggered onto stage alone with a cigarette and a cup of coffee and a half smile curled onto his face I was like, wah that's skill.
And ultimately i still don't think they are pretty boys but they've got the right charisma and fantastic stage presence. All the way down to the end of the show everyone was so pumped, and when Nic came back alone for the encore with an acoustic guitar and started to sing Shine On I just wanted to hug everyone and cry. He really made my heart (and Priya's chi) melt.
They have. so. much. style. omg.. i love how much they were smoking on stage. It was fucking sexy.
AND, on to my next point of this post: Star Signs
Okay i know i have always thought horoscopes were more of a laugh, like just taking them seriously was gay enough. But we went out with Charbs & Co. last night and got talking about how the characteristics of star signs are actually pretty accurate. And a got pretty bored at home today and went to google it. And found it to be quite true. Of me and others.
PISCES (me):
".. Are beautiful, sexy and draw everyone to them."
Ok no seriously,
"GENERAL FEATURES:
Water sign ruled by Jupiter and Neptune. Pisceans are subtle, patient, sweet and tolerant. However, they can be also touchy and treacherous. Their typical features are a complex character, a great mind for fantasy and an extraordinary learning ability. They are irresolute and they are not keen in organizing, so that they prefer to be led by other people, both in private and in working life. Typical jobs are: football player, nurse, medium, mechanic and photographer. They have a strong religious feeling and artistic sensibility. Being so reserved, it is not easy to know and understand them thoroughly. Friendship and true and longlasting love are for Pisceans extremely important."
"You are a compassionate, sympathetic and loving soul. You are so sensitive that unconsciously you may absorb the moods and thoughts of the people around you. It's easy for you to become emotionally drained by the needs of friends, family and lovers, so it's important for you to take time out for yourself.
You are the dreamers of the Zodiac."
Pretty damned true eh?
I am a convert. There's more shit at HoroscopeFree.com if you want to go read about yours.
P/S: Sorry for the lack of updating, i've got a very sexy boyfriend to keep me occupied (:
P/P/S: I fucking shat a lot today, like 3 times. I think something didn't agree with my stomach |:

Listening to Kiss by Tom Jones
I feel so listless today. It's been ages since i blogged so i decided to throw something up but nothing really comes to my mind. I've been jobless and sitting on my ass for too long and I'm starting to feel very depressed about it. I have 4 days left with my bike, and I'm running out of money so I can almost kiss Australia goodbye (mei please don't kill me).
So unless I get a job like now, I'm just gonna commit suicide. hahahaha .. on the bright side, Beat was soooo good last night. And Mambo's coming (yay more reasons to go broke). And Yan'll be back in a week, James is coming in a week and a half, and Steph in two weeks probably with Lauren soon after. So things are gonna get a little crazy.
Sorry for the lack of useful info in this entry but i'm feeling more lazy and listless and everything so i'll stop here.
Beat pictures up on Facebook.
