About Me

My photo
" i'm a paradox. i want to be happy, but i think of things that makes me sad. I'm lazy, yet i'm ambitious. i don't like myself, but i love who i am. i say i don't care, but i really do. i crave attention but i reject it when it really comes my way. i'm a conflicted contradiction.

Creating memories

Today, is the best day in this year.
at lest it feels like it.
because, i did something special,
with someone special,
and...
she's right beside me.
pretty right.
That's ChowChow.
OH and we went to the beach.
technically, it's the one that i love talking about.
the one that i brought Boly. to,
most importantly,
the one me and W.Y. often went.
and that's me,
looking awfully retarded,
but i like it that way.

so...
what did we do?
i'm quite reluctant to tell all of you,
because...
WHAT IF YOU ALL TAKE MY IDEA AND DO THE SAME THING?!
but it's too fun to not share so...
whoever does whatever i do AFTER reading this post is a...

DOG,
MOUSE,
SHIT,
WHATEVER BAD..
AHH COCKROACH.

okay here goes.

So we sat bus number 9,
yes the only way we could possibly reach there.
and we made wishes.
yes like typical girls,
but no,
not lame way like girls usually do. (okay maybe?)
we made wishes,
sealed our fate (is that correct...),
and...
eat the bottles!

NO OFCOURSE NOT,
before i met ChowChow,
i did some shopping,
got the pretty bottles,
pretty paper,
sewing kit (with thread and a mini scissors),
and of course some snacks!
we wrote our 10 wishes,
bottled it up,

THREW IT INTO THE SEA.

 Chow's ^
 Mine ^
That's us!
we couldn't bear to part with our lovely bottles.
but in the end,
we have to,
that's the whole point right?
we parted with our pretty and beloved bottles,
with smiles?
or not for chowchow,
who was really worried it'll land in Singapore,
on the sandy beach just a short walk away.

honestly,
i was a little worried too,
that maybe it'll just be a lame thing in the end,
and our wishes wouldn't come true.
but who knows?
i have faith in the sea,
and my bottles!
so i left hurriedly for two reasons,
1. my dad was expecting me to reach home way earlier than i actually did.
2. i didn't wanna see where the bottle is heading towards.

avoiding reality you could call it.
whatever.
OH AND,


get the focus of the pictures???
what are those?
sea lions!!!!!!
yes,
in Singapore WITHOUT the need to pay.
yes,
right in front of us,
near the shore.
yes,
wild ones (those that are not owned by anyone)
YESSSSS,
unexpected and unplanned and amazing and awesome and surprising!!!
i can't find any words to describe the surprise i felt,
hell i didn't even know how to respond.
best thing is,
my camera is still spoilt =.=
so these pictures are taken by chow,
who couldn't stop exclaiming:
"so cute!!!!!"

yes indeed.
it seems everytime i went out with her,
we would always get a pleasant surprise.

but just one little thing that wasn't that pleasant,
i sprained my ankle.
and yes it hurts,
it swelled,
like pig trotters.
i won't show you.
but fat me fell down the stairs of Dreamatomy's (one good friend) house.

i slept at her house early this morning.
i was pretending that i had school, even though it's already the hols.
IF NOT HOW COULD I HAVE FUN LIKE I DID TODAY.
but i was half awake when walking down the stairs...

hope i recover soon (i don't think i will),
kisses (cause "xoxo" is too mainstream).

Achievements and expectations

results, parents, study harder.
results, parents, study harder.

what does a student's life revolve around?
results, parents, study harder.

notice it's not studies or study,
its study HARDER.

ya that's right, being a student is easy. not.
got my report card today, reflects my year's achievement.
not too bad i guess.
a couple of really bad ones.
but overall, was alright.

considering the amount of effort i put in on the first half of the year.
i remember me starting this blog a being determined to work hard.
but i slogged to at least made my report nicer.
and i did.

but next year (yes i'm saying this again), i must do well.
this time, i do not have a choice.

because it's the GCE O LEVELS examinations.
big deal? yes.

meanwhile, i would have to prepare for express chinese O levels examinations,
which are coming up this 6th of November.
ya, my life ain't that fun right.

there's express chinese,
then there's Higher Chinese next year.
get it?
no?
well HAHAHAHHAHAHA, it's funny.

ah random, let's move on.

so after our parents and teacher's conference in school,
my mom was quite happy.
why?
my teacher goes:
"Cynthia is very intelligent Mrs Tan, she's gifted with the great brains, if only she could make use of it well, she'll do really well easily" -Mrs L. (English and co-form teacher)
"Cynthia is really very smart, she'll succeed in life, getting very good and excellent is still a waste for her talent..." translated from Mr P. (Chinese teacher)

"i'm very sure Cynthia will do very well in life." says all my teachers that my mother met and spoke to.

my mom's reaction?
"AHHHHHH, this is my genes" 
=.=
yes that's what my mom says.
 okay back on track...
so she went around my school to "look around",
like a tour.
she loves my school.
and this place which i loved too.
 this place feels really serene.
okay maybe i got the wrong word.
but who cares.
just feels really relaxed.
it's in my school you know :P
i feel like a promoter for the school.

so then we went for our lunch and i headed home.
anyway, i went shopping again.

so i took photos of myself, AGAIN.




oh i love the daisy romper-dress and the rainbow off-shoulder. <3

so who cares about results FOR NOW?

yea but i'm gonna be working a little for my chinese O levels.
but not too hard, since it's really simple.

oh,
i almost forgot,
my camera function on my iPhone is faulty.
like it totally just blanks out or has some weird colour over the screen when i'm trying to use the camera.
LIKE WHY THE HELL?!
i was so frustrated i bawled my eyes out last night.
overreaction?
the time of the month has passed for me.
so not menstrual syndromes.
anyway, explains why i was only lucky enough to take one photo of the school this morning.
i have one really great shot in my mother's phone.
BUT,
she
r e f u s e s
to send me the photo.

*screams of frustrations*

so yeah and she JUST sent it to me.

Look at those flowers x.x

Stars and the moon

I’ll miss you forever like the stars in the sky,

They miss the sun.

Hey.
yes i'm back to update this little space of mine.
Anyway, i've been having a bit of an adventure.
 I've been a bit crazy over this korean drama lately.
doesn't sound like me?
yep, indeed.
though i guess i'mm a bit late to be head over heels over this drama.
since...
it's long been over it's craze season.
according to my friend,
it was filmed around 4 years ago?

Boys before flowers.
yes girls, scream your lungs out.

just by listening to their name,
F4
don't you feel a bit weak at your legs?
OMYGOSH, i'm really crazy over the drama.
i feel like a teenage girl for once. (although i'm a bit late)

but hey, four gorgeous and dashing guys,
wealthy with the charisma,
which girl wouldn't melt?




there's the feel right?
the high and mighty bossy feeling?<3
okay maybe not.
but i want to be wealthy too.

which person in the right mind will say:
"hey, you know i hate money, i want to live poor and not be able to get what i like"

doesn't sound too right?
i love the smell of money,
that's why i'm even studying now.

when i grow up,
i want to earn tons and tons of money,
i want to live in a palace-like house,
i want to make others watch and gasp even as i saunter by.

so the closest i can live to my dream....
is to enjoy the little wonders of life.

okay i'm a little crazy over sweaters too. :P
i have no idea why too.


korean drama calls for korean food.

spent a bomb on any korean food i desire to try.
but...
i was looking for pumpkin porridge,
stupid Singapore has no place that settle with this craving):

perhaps there is,
but i couldn't find it.

so then i went shopping.
saw many bags that i like.
that i am going to buy in the holidays.

well life seems fun doesn't it?

but perhaps not so tomorrow.
because i'm getting my results for the all so important examinations tomorrow.

why do i feel the jitters?

whatever it is,
i will tell you all how i did.

laters kitties,
xoxo

It's Playtime!!!

Technically, i had my gears going, was on full blown "party" mode :D
high spirits today ofcourse.
there was multiple choice questions (examinations) today...
i know... i know i said exams were over.
but today, it's officially over. YES, even the easiest paper.
HOORAYYYY. No? yes please!! ^^
so ofcourse, this deserves a celebration!!!
SO...
Yep, that was yesterday.
had a relaxed day where Boly and I, we chilled at home and watched Running Man till our backbone aches.
awesomeeeeee <3
by the way, newly discovered affection for Running Man.
IT"S A MUST TO WATCH.
okay i sound like an advertiser.
long time since i drew.
Just in case you didn't know, this is a rose.
not some "carnation", so says my mom. (she's blind,what even.)

Cause someday,
someone's gonna love me the way
i wanted you to need me.

BUT NAH, i think my stubborn heart won't get touched. :P

Today's.
yes today should claim the spotlight.
had a great and long day.
( too much muscles make my legs look huge, but i don't even care)
so after our paper today, Boly, MOMO and I went out on an awesome date <3
but apologies darlings ): i had to make my Singapore Identity card and that took up alot of time.
If you're wondering who's MOMO.
she's just the most.... i have no idea what to use as a descriptive, but i love her.
yes, get the point, Cynthia Tan loves her.
no worries, i'm straight. nono, i didn't get too huge of a blow and went off...
so we waited for such a long time, but it's okay, i managed to lighten the really boring waiting period of time.
But Boly, ya she still refuses to appear infront of the Camera D:
she's always like that.<if you're reading this, YES YOU SHOULD TAKE PICTURES OHMYGOSH)
*exasperated sighhh*
immediately after that, we ate at a fast food restaurant: Wendy's
the food there was great, although it seems abit overpriced (according to Boly, i think it's a little too)
actually i could see MOMO and Boly really at a loss of what to eat; wasn;t really an enjoyable meal for them.
SORRYYYYYYY ):
but stupid me already ordered my food, so Boly and MOMO was "forced" to eat.
could see i enjoyed my meal(^my burger), but guess we couldn't say the same for my dearies.
SORRRYYYY AGAIN.
but we had a great chat to make up for it ^^
next stop, Downtown east, aiming to catch a movie.
we were debating on these movies:
Percy Jackson or Insidious?

we did catch a movie in the end, shall reveal which one later :D
meanwhile....
so we arrived at downtown east, with MOMO whining about her thirst.
so we headed for a bubble tea session.
MOMO and I again (BOLY LOOK WHAT YOU DID)
we all miss Boly right? (take pictures pleaseeee)
So we had bubble tea. which was also a very interesting occasion where Boly was being persuaded repeatedly to take photos.
but it's all her own fault for not wanting to appear before the camera.
but nonetheless, we continued with our day's plans.
not only so, Boly and MOMO, the two awesome retards actually made me walk a million miles to that place and in the end? the movies were all of the wrong and unavailable timing slots.
the best thing is, we were soooooo happy we decided to walk the million miles back to the train station where we later went to the next stop of the day.
the most common mall:
Tampines mall.

and thankfully, time slots were available. for which movie?? >~
me and MOMO outside the cinema.
yes as expected, Boly decided that she had passion for photography, so she became photographer of the day.

so time for the announcement of our last decision for the movie?
 Yes we watched insidious.
definitely juicy and gorgeous horror.
but both MOMO and Boly has problems with horror.
for me? i mysteriously found alot of humor in the horror film, much to boly's and MOMO's astonishment.

shivering with dancing prickles,
they shaded and protected themselves from the horror ahead,
BAM!
deafening and jolting fear crept up their spines,
both head turned simultaneously,
to see the girl laughing till the tears were streaming,
ME.

what's so funny?
i don't know.
but i rate the movie 8/10.
recommended.
i'm not the spoiler kind of girl, i urge you cowardly kitties to drag yourselves there (:

then, i became transformer, since my parents had no idea i went for adventures today.
ahhhhh! the nice school girl again :D

Good day ahead! <3
week later too <3
year after,
and life eternally <3

Reality check

Finally. It’s over. Can you believe it?
2013 is coming to an end.
So fast. Time flew past and I cannot even feel it.


even the mooncake festival is over.
and i can still clearly remember the events of last year's mooncake festival.
can it be?
a year already.
well it seems so to me.

oh yayy that rhymes.

anyway. many have happened in this exam period.
let me tell you all everything with the aid of pictures okay?

okay so even though it's exams.
i had a feast.
like really. a really great feast.
and ofcourse i wore a dress.
with a cat on it.
a shoes with really really high soles.
well that's not the point.
i had oysters.
mouthwatering delicious juicy oysters.
problem is.
i was admitted to the hospital after that, down with food poisoning.
oh wells.
shall not elaborate on upsetting poopie things right?

but oh my, how long was i sick?
i dont know.
but i know i missed a lot of papers,
i missed two major ones.
one of which is the one i studied most on.
geography.

and i still elaborated on upsetting things.

life is such an irony.
you've slogged and worked to make it a beauty,
but you focus on things you can't seem to let go of.
things that make you happy,
are often things most capable of upsetting you.
with responsibility comes misery,
but with responsibility comes the world.

what, do we exactly want?
so i had to stay at home because i was sick.

so i thought about things.
how reality is making a joke out of me.
look at this i got from a blogger's web wall.
really, who hasn't?


had to eat healthy.
not exactly something i'm good at.
which was the reason why i had a relapse after i recovered.
which totally sucked.


so that's today, i went shopping because,
EXAMS ARE OVER AND I HAVE FULLY RECOVERED.

oh my, how happy i am to have everything gone.
now i can focus on doing the so many things i want to do before exam started.
AHH WELL.
i'm up to something...

but i shall not tell you all what.
i will surprise you all one day xD

for now, i shall go.
till then kitties <3
