Because it has always been that way

CHOPPED OFF 5 INCHES OF MA HAIR TODAY!! My hair is so significantly lighter nao. Decided to have much shorter hair for my post-secondary education cause I've decided that I should stop tying my hair so often. It damages the hair especially when you tie your hair, you pull it, so you either "drop" hair or the hair breaks and then you'll have ugly short broken hair that'll stick out when you tie everything up. So at first my hair were touching my erm... elbows..? Now it's about 2-3 inches down my shoulders. Then I got a soft fringe so that it'll accommodate my black specs. Mummy says I look like a doll with soft bangs... Oh wellz.

Oh update: finished watching Five Fingers. Good plot I would say. The lead actors were good too. It's like even up till the last few episodes, it still got you wondering if the father actually loved the mother too much that he was willing to bear all the hate from the mother and bring in the child that his wife had with another man (of which the wife supposed her husband actually had an affair) or was it the father's revenge on the mother that he wanted her and her child (from another man) to hate each other for life. And in the end, I would like to conclude that it was because of his great love for her.

PEOPLE. Recommend me any nice dramas or movies please. Can't seem to find any nice ones anymore ever since completing May Queen. It's like this withdrawal symptom or what. Sigh. Just too in love with the whole cast and plot.

Can't wait for Friday's baking session at Gracia's!! ^^

Welcome back!

Okay this is kind of slow but erm cause I've just been too lazy to blog recently. But hope you can come for June camp too.

Am determined to get used to the horrible key travel that my S7 has to offer so I'm trying to do all the typing of my blog post on this laptop. Yeah, hope that helps at least a bit.

Went half of YF March Retreat. Honestly, the primary reason why I hesitated about staying overnight was because there weren't any of my batch mates who were staying overnight. And by batch mates I mean the females. Those who went to poly were ALL overseas and those who went to jc we ALL away on their cca camps. Poor lonely me. :( BIG FAT SIGH. Wanted to go for the first day messages but cause the message ended at around 9 or so, so dad was discouraging me to go. Mustered my courage and went for the second day, which was today. Intended to go for the first message of the day at 10 and even  set my alarm at 830. But due to my super messed up body clock, I woke up at 944 instead. So end up I went for the second message of today.

Apparently according to the timetable, the second message was at 1130. Reached at 1123 but it seemed like the preacher was already preaching halfway. And the message even ended at 1215 or so. End up after the message, heard from Vanessa that cause the first message ended early so everything was pushed up. Okay... No wonder so paiseh like when I first walked into the room got this feeling like I late like that but actually I wasn't, technically speaking. LOLOL.

Feeling so full today. Fullness in the heart. But very tired at the same time. Don't actually remember the last time I actually woke up around this timing if you would not consider the fact that I woke up at 6 in the morning last Sunday to jog with my brother. And talking about sleep... HAHAHA see all my JC friends talking about how they are lacking in sleep, how 4 hours of sleep is normal etc... And I'm all like... Ever since Os ended I've been sleeping for at least 8 hours or more every single day. Heh heh heh. #evil :P

Yawnssss. Really tired now. Shall retire to bed although I know I'll  probably roll on the bed for at least 2 hours before I actually sleep.

Above all

Hello everybadee! Have been watching this drama called May Queen recently. It's really a melodrama man... So much sad things happening in the drama. Came to watch this drama because of Kim Jaewon. Hehehe... Checked him up ever since I saw his 100 Days with Mr Arrogant. But that's not my point. My point is... May Queen is arguably one of the best 2012 dramas I've ever seen and it's definitely the best drama I've seen so far this year.

It's so rare that I love the whole cast! And take a liking to soooo many actors from this cast. I love all three of the main child actors that either Yoojung looked good with either Guntae or Jibin. And not to forget the child actor for Ilmoon and Inhwa weren't those kind of child actors who you'd dislike/find them irritating in the show. As I'm typing, I'm slowly getting irritated with the little key travel that my new laptop has to offer... sigh... And then we come to the adult actors. The initial part where Changhee has not became bad yet and while he was still dating Haejoo, they two looked good together too. And then later you find that Haejoo looked good with Kangsan too.

Well I really really enjoyed this whole drama. The plot had quite a number of unexpected twist, especially at the end. And throughout the whole drama, you'd feel heart pain for every single character at least for once. And that includes characters who weren't even the lead such as Inhwa, Ilmoon, both of Haejoo's mother, Haejoo's dad, Changhee's dad, Kangsan's grandfather and even the most hateful and the biggest villain in the drama, Jang Dohyun. That was how good the scripts were and how good the cast were in delivering the plot. Oh and even the most insignificant roles such as the secretaries, Secretary Choi & Secretary Kim, were both good looking too. I mean, usually when secretaries get casted for a drama, they'll look so average-looking that you won't even bother to remember their faces. But the secretaries for May Queen though they weren't handsome to the extent of stealing attention away from the main scenes (and that's what they shouldn't do for their roles) but they were good looking enough for people to remember their faces. :P

I guess I wouldn't really have minded if Haejoo ended up with either man. And I mean both the young and adult Haejoo. And I guess the scriptwriters really know how to please their viewers. The young Haejoo, although had a crush on Changhee, she had love-line scenes with Kangsan too, although it was a one-sided thing. And then we see that the adult Haejoo was in a relationship with Changhee before ending the drama with Kangsan. HAHAHAHA. Actually I loved the child actors more. But still, I can't discount the fact that the adults did as well as the children. :)

Oh yeah and just searched a little for fun. Park Jibin is '95, Park Guntae is '96, Seo Youngjoo is '98. All three of them acting as the same age but surprisingly Park Jibin looked the youngest and Seo youngjoo looked the oldest... He was so tall some more. And then Kim Yoojung is '99. Handsome and pretty, young actors we got there.


Ahhhh. Really love staying at home to nua and watch all my dramas. But the bad thing is that sometimes I run out of good dramas to watch, or dramas that I enjoy watching and POOF, I feel like I've wasted the whole day away. And also not to forget that when I've just finished a good drama, I feel like there ain't much good drama left for me to watch, like the rest just aren't as good to capture your heart once again. You know that feeling? :/

Fingers honestly feel a little strained right now after typing this whole post cause it seems that I'm using a lot of effort to type on this keyboard... Sigh. I may resort to getting a portable keyboard if I don't get used to this by this year. Don't think one's gonna be affordable anyway, so need to save up on that money T.T

Apsire S7!!

Hi loves!! Got a new lappie yesterday. Yayz! Currently trying out on the new laptop's keyboard. Key travel is really horrible and battery life is like what... 3h+ only. But considering it it's usual price is $2398 and I got it for $2050, I honestly think it was a good deal. Not to forget it has touch screen too! Was convinced by the salesman that all ultrabooks can't have good key travel cause it's just too thin already. So oh well... Although this laptop had the worse key travel among the 3 laptops that I had in mind, but it has the best performance out of the 3. I guess I can get used to the keyboard with time... If I really can't stand it, I'll just get myself an external keyboard then.

Loving almost everything about it so far! Just hope that when I bring it out, it won't run out of battery too fast and also not be noisy.


This pretty little thing. ;)

This is love.

Sigh. What a bother. Don't know which laptop to get for school use. The brands that school recommends is like... Bleh. Not that good either. It's gonna last me for at least 3 years so must get at least a decent one that won't break down after one plus year of usage. But all the good ones I'm looking at are around the 2000 range. So ex. Grrr. Can't really bear for my parents to fork out that money. But dad insist a good laptop. Haish. Brother's laptop was only 1.2 zzz... So stress. Then mummy saw me browsing through the net ask me why I sighed. Told her all the core i7 processor laptops that I'm looking at all around 2000. Thank God for Ethan a lot. He helped me a great deal in narrowing down my choices. Now what's left is to tell dad which are the two models I'm looking at and see what he says.

Have been rewatching Skip Beat! Extravagant Challenge these few days. Ahhhh totally fell in love with the show again. They should just make a second sequel!! Like seriously. There's so much to say! How Shang tries to win back Gongxi, how Lian slowly opens hi heart to Gongxi and finally how Gongxi works hard towards being a better actress slowly together along with Qin; the drama only talked about Gongxi's entry to the showbiz and her journey to rediscover her lost ability to love after being dumped by Shang. So in the second sequel, showing how she slowly climbs the showbiz ladder to be that best actress would be quite interesting to watch. Oh oh and they have not fully talked about Lian's mysterious past and his relationship with his father. After all, in the manga, his dad was some big star in Hollywood and Lian was super pressurised by that fact; how to come out of his father's shadow and live a life under his name. There were quite a lot of parts in the drama where expectations weren't met in that sense where the plot could have been developed further. And with a second sequel, we can see those expectations being fulfilled.

Have never felt so torn watching a drama anyway. Just imagine, if all those that I've said were to be in the second sequel, wonder which side would I root for. Lian or Shang? I'll be honest right here and it's probably partially cause I'm Donghae biased, so I didn't really disliked his character in the show. But at the same time, being the common stereotypical drama audience, I always almost like the "good" side/person, which is Lian. Honestly I did dislike Shang (Fuwa Sho) in the anime version but erm... heheh. Can't bring myself to dislike Donghae's character in this live action rendition... xD Hope they can get back both Donghae Siwon & Yihan to act together... or at least I hope the director actually considers shooting a second sequel.

Those days back in sec 3 where I anticipated the whole week just for a Monday and catch the latest episode that would be uploaded online. Just one episode managed to put a smile on my face and chase those Monday blues away. I still remember how eager I was to watch the new episodes that I would even watch them on my phone at school during Study Hall periods. Well, these two songs to keep me company while I reminiscence those sweet times.







Goodbye. :)
