waiting and time passes by

while i was trying to find something to do to kill time, unknowingly and without realising it, time is sliently killing me. i'm waiting. waiting for monday to come and that i can get to celebrate teachers' day with some of my colleagues.

i'm waiting. waiting for tuesday to come. the release of my 2nd year uni results. probably i should start training my own heart before i collapse with a heart attack upon receiving my results. speaking about this, i realized that i don't even know how are they going to release the results to us. lol.

i'm waiting. waiting for wednesday to come so that my favourite anime Bleach and 07-Ghost will upload the next episode. super looking forward to it as this is the only thing that brightens up my long, tiring, boring, routined day. i would love to drown myself in all of my animes.

i'm waiting. waiting for thursday which is also the day that the fansub group will release the new episode for my another all time favourite anime, Naruto Shippuuden. if i didn't remember wrongly, think the next movie for shippuden is coming out. hopefully it will be out soon, i simply love this anime so much :)

i'm waiting. waiting for friday to come because i love to attend my new HRM class. HRM is in short for Human Resource Management. Love this class cause my lecturer is so funny. I also enjoyed my tuesday class very much, audit may be the most boring subject but i have the most funniest lecturer to entertain us in class. i feel so blessed with good teachers.

i'm waiting. waiting for saturday to come. to see all my lovely and friendly colleagues at work and they will teach and give me some pointers to me for piano playing. i'm slowly learning how to play some piano pieces. getting in touch with my artistic side.

i'm waiting. waiting for sunday because it is the last day of the week and i can get my full day rest the next day. arhhhhh, how nice. i would love to pamper myself in my bed with my comfy blanked, lavender pillow and my stuffed animal, narnia. actually, i've got a second name for my stuffed animal, yato. eh, sounds nice?

so before i knew it, another week is gone and the same thing will repeat itself again until maybe next year april i might get another new set of routine to do. god knows whether is it a good or a bad thing to push myself this much. but one thing i know is, i'm doing things that i love. studying, training and working. at the end of the day, it is how u feel about things that is important.

well, for the long-run. i'm waiting for my another all-time favourite manhwa "the bride of the water god" to upload its next chapter. i'm so super duper ultra looking forward to it but it seems that the translator is trying to be funny by keeping their readers in suspence. it's torturing me.

sigh. here comes my boring life. thank goodness i have my animes and mangas to add some colours to my life.

guess this is like another random post. again.

say, my blog is nice isn't it?

Random-ness

I was quite disappointed that my Bleach template got kinda screwed up since it was one of my favourite template and so with this, i've decided that i should get a cooler template. Where there's a will, there's a way and i've found a damn COOL TEMPLATE.

I really love this current template i have...it's awesome! like cool to the max! and i did a little editing to my cbox. and added some effect here and there. i'm starting to like my blog more now. But i have a problem is that, i wanna add a gif image on my blog. the one that i showed on my cbox. That webby has a naruto gif image on the bottom left of the webby. I have that gif image but how do i go about inserting that into my blog. That's a tough nut to crack.

But if possible i want it up on my blog...don't you think it's damn damn damn awesome!!! i'm so fascinated with my own blog now...felt kinda satisfied and all...

Anyway, putting all these happy happy feelings. MY RESULTS WILL BE OUT THIS COMING TUESDAY. jeez. dooms day. better enjoy now while i have the mood. CHUI. hopefully i can pass every damn thing. argh!!!! WHERE'S MY QC DURING MY MUGGING PERIOD MAN! if only have put in a little more hard work, i probably do not need to worry now.

I want tuesday to faster come and also dun come so fast. Irony. i know. sigh. anyway, before dooms day, seimpi music is gonna celebrate teacher's day. GUESS WHAT. we will be watching "the proposal" at Great World City, CATHAY GOLD CLASS cinema. served my lunch some more. Cool hor. I also say. I'll be going down with siewmei but unfortunately, we have to wake up damn early.

We need to be there at like 10.00am so you can imagine what time i have to wake up inorder to reach there on time. if only i have supernatural power such as teleportation. then, i'll never be late for anything. ain't that amazing? yea, that's highly impossible anyway, unless i'm night crawler. LOL. i dun want to be nightcrawler also.

Oh yea, readers, when u have nothing to do..you can feed my fish for me...ain't they cute?? if only it's a dog or something...hahaha oh mayve fyulong from 07 ghost. you know you know, that small little dragon looking pet that always follow Teito around and it's name is Mikage. It's so damn cute can.

Oh damn, i wish i live in an anime world. it's full of amazing and unexpected things. but that means i'm fantasizing. sigh. sigh.

ALrights, it's getting late and i need to turn in soon since i've got to work tmr morning. and i got a feeling my eyesight is starting to detoriates.omg. save me. someone. i need to start to stare at more trees and grass.

Mood: Happy yet sad and annoyed

I'm happy because one of my favourite manga that i've been waiting for them to update since last year has finally complete updating. It's Kiss/Hug. A nice and beautiful romantic story that doesn't seem real but something i simply enjoy reading.

Another reason why i'm happy because i've finally get to go to facial today as we have been postponing our appointment from the start of the month to the end of the month. Amazing isn't it?

I happy also because Vampire Knight, 07 Ghost and Shiawase Kissasanchoume has been updated recently. I have always been looking forward to read their manga and now they are keeping me in suspence. Wonder how long more do i need to wait until their next update. Sigh.

I'm happy also because i've been searching for this song for damn long and i've finally got my hands on it. =) it's hitomi no kotae by Noria. it's the ending theme for 07-ghost anime. Super Duper nice. Got addicted to that song.

Next, I'm annoyed because i happily bought some bread and pastries home and mother was making a big fuss out of it. Saying that do not anyhow buy breads and pastries from any random shops because they don't handle them properly and how cockroaches and ants end up inside the pastries. Also she said that i bought so many; 3 piglets, one chocolate cake, 1 coconut bun, there's no place for her to store these useless food. She said that we could throw it away but it's a watse of money. And because of the bread and pastries i bought, she said it took up do much space on our dinning table that she has to store the chin chow she brewed in the refrigerator. Okay, i got the message now. Next time, i wouldnt buy bread and pastries back. Besides, i wounldnt have the chance to do that for i'm starting school tomorrow and from this week onwards till end of the year, she would only be able to see me at home after 9pm every week days and after 7pm on weekends, provided if i dun go out after my work. So she dun have the chance to nag at me anymore. To a certain extend, i told myself that it's a good thing to keep myself busy. So my conclusion is, the lesser time i spend at home, the lesser trouble i'll get with my mother, the lesser the argument will result in a happier living environment. Now to come to think about it, i think she is the reason why i occupy myself to this extend.

I'm sad because one of the anime that i've been chasing was suddenly licensed and i cant get to watch it anymore. It's hanasakeru Seishounen. Omg, that's how sad can. I was so looking forward to it and now they're telling me that they've decided to license it. I'm just so sad. Sigh.

I'm sad also because after school starts, i barely have time to watch anime or read manga. i need to buck up on my school work and to do revision. Sigh. I wish i could spend more time on my animes and mangas. it's my alternative source of relaxation other than sleeping and slacking.

Okay, i realised that this is just another random post again. i should hurry up and go to sleep since my class tomorrow is at 9.30am.

Hope It Ends...And It Starts With Me...

Saturday...another long day for me. Had work in the morning till evening as usual and headed out to Siewmei's 21st birthday party at Aranda. Although i didnt buy her any presents, cause i really don't know what to buy, treated her to lunch on Wednesday as her present. That's probably the most sincere present i could give.

Anyway, old flame insisted on picking me up from work and to send me down to siewmei's chalet. Also, he wants to send me home after that. Well, so i took this chance to clarify matters with him. thank goodness he doesn't know that i have a blog.

While in his car on the way to Aranda, he asked how's my day and stuff and told me he kinda missed me. Honestly, that puts me in a damn difficult situation. I felt like i was about to murder some innocent man. Though, he's not that innocent anymore based on what i know and heard about him in the past.

Past may be in the past and we should not bother it too much, however, your past is the one damn good thing that haunts you forever. So even though he may be "nice and innocent" now, it does not deny the fact that he lost it once. That is not very fair for whoever comes after that. If you know what i mean.

Anyway, i did hint him by saying what if i'm not the girl who will walk beside him in the future and also i asked him what would he do if i leave. When a girl says that, it's kinda obvious and i know that he kinda already knows what i'm going to say next. Unfortunately, i've already arrived at Aranda and so i had to get out of the car and to attend the party.

After the party, he came to pick me up as promised and we continued our conversation from there. While driving me back, throughout the entire trip he never once let go of my hand. That puts me in a even more difficult and awkward position because i'm not too sure what am i supposed to do next. Should i brush his hands off? or should i just let him hold on to my hand? what should i do? and bla bla bla...worrying through the journey home.

We had a little chat at my house downstairs and so i told him that it would probably be our last time meeting each other because i wanted to draw the line and maybe we should not contact each other anymore. He kept asking if i could make out some time for him and all he asked was just another dinner or movie. But this time round, i rejected him firmly. no buts, no maybes, no see-hows. I said no.

As when his eyes became teary, i feel so cruel towards him. and it was then i couldnt tell him straight that he is not the man i truly want to be with. Because somewhere out there, whenever something happens, woodblock would surface in my mind. I know that's bad. But i can't help it. That is when i realised that old flame is really not the one for me.

I wanted to be honest for once, with old flame. like telling him whatever i said on my blog. Like how i don't feel the love from him and somehow some where doesn't feel quite right despite the fact that i know him for like 7 to 8 years. Also, he may have good career prospect and he may be able to provide me for my life **from a realistic point of view**, but i don't feel like being part of the picture with him.

My heart doesnt skip a beat when i'm with him. Maybe at first sight, my heart beats a little faster than usual. But after a while, i tend to worry instead of enjoying my time with him. When he held my hand, thoughts like "shit, what am i supposed to do now?" , "what if someone saw us?" , "should i push him away?" , "will i hurt his pride?" , "i dun want this" and etc... will come across my mind.

But that doesnt happen when it was with woodblock. I'm not using woodblock as my excuse to push old flame away. It's just that somehow, i dun feel right with old flame. Also, it's not like i'm expecting something out of woodblock. Eventually, i may find a better guy than him and i will move on in life and i may forget what woodblock has done for me.

That aside, after getting off the car and ignoring him. He smsed me and told me that he would probably need some time to get over me and also, honestly he would do anything for us to be together. Tell you what, i didnt reply his sms. Am i doing the right thing? hope i did. don't want to mislead him or anything.

Time will heal. I hope it does. For him and for myself. I just hope that school can hurry start, training can hurry resume. So that I can keep myself busy and not think about anything. Not about old flame, not about woodblock. I just want to focus on my studies, bowling and work. Hang out with friends to chill. Mahjong. Sing K. Eat steamboat. Play L4D. or anything. gathering.

Relationship is troublesome. I knew that long ago. I shouldnt have bothered myself with all these unnecessary things at the moment, when i have other better things to do. Really. What have i gotten myself into. I brought this upon myself. If only, i hadnt gone out with him. Well, it's too late for that now. So, just be a little wiser next time. RUN, when you can see it coming.

It's a story that involves these 2 characters as the main characters of the story. This manga has a good plot when comes to politics play since ninjas are often send to missions such as gathering information, smoking each other and fight each other.

It also involves with a little tragedy because of a war between the villages. And how does the war make a change in every character's life. It complies with Usagi's journy in becoming a herbalist, a shinobi as well as Hanzou's wife. The people she met along the way and the people she lost in battles.

It has happy, sad and frustrating moments when reading this manga.

OMG. SO DEAD.

To be honest, i'm kinda in a deep pile of shit recently. well, i believe many of you would know that when one shit comes, all the shit would come as well. omg, i'm so dead. perhaps this is my karma. a lesson for me to learnt through the dangerous way. the most dangerous way.

so where should i start talking about it. alright, perhaps it all started out with old flame meeting up and stuff. this could get pretty serious and to make things worst, i've played with fire and burnt myself.

this boy whom i have know him since my teenage years came back asking me out for a dinner. and well, here i though no harm going out for a dinner since it i hadnt been going out much and my social life seems a little boring and dry. this is the point where you could say, trying to start the fire with a match stick. and here it goes.

after dinner and stuff, we talked a bit and till now we still contact each other. and of coz, the meeting didnt end with just the first dinner, we went out for a movie and stuff too. so it pretty seems like a date. at least, that's what i thought too. and this is the point when i realised that under the match stick that i lid, there was a pile of dry grass below it.

so it has been a week already. and after many sms-ing on the phone and stuff. i'm gradually starting to feel frighten by him. in short, i'm afraid of him. he's not a stalker or anything coz he's in army now. i mean he sign on as a regular in the SAF. by saying so, i guess many of you could have already figured out that he has money.

he owns his own car, a tuscani. he has cash and credit card. BUT!!! that's not the point. there was this once serious talk we had and he was talking about OUR future. yes, hear it right, he said OUR FUTURE! omg. die. to be honest. he was never in my picture.

also, since recently i have changed my msn nick complaining about my comp and stuff. he hinted that he wanted to buy a laptop for me, on top of that, it is a macbook. oh yea, you didnt hear or see wrongly again. he said MACBOOK! and guess what it is the MACBOOK PRO!. jeez, at this point of time, my heartbeat almost stop for 5mins. it's not funny.

putting that aside, i was glad that there was this one sms that he mentioned that he feels that it's kinda hard for him to communicate with me. my mood was damn happy. i wish he could call off this whole thing. at this stage, the match stick that i lid, went out and i dispose it into the pile of dried grass.

erm. i dun even know how to describe the status we're in. god damn it. boys sure are trouble. damn big trouble-maker. i'm starting to have phobia against boys. zomg. correction. not boys. phobia against him.yes. HIM!

okay, apart from all these things. he said he wanted to meet my parent. my soul almost went out of my body.yea. for a split second my soul came out of my body and went back in again. for god's sake. what in the world is he thinking. i dont understand. i totally don't understand and dont get it. at this point of time, it feels like the match stick that was supposed to die, found its spark and lid again. this time round, in the pile of dried grass. the fire started.

and so when the fire started. now. i'm starting to find water to put it out. and if i don't find the water in time, i will burn myself. alright, i hate to say this but now i've a few plans on hand. i have to play my cards well and right. on top of that, i can never play this fairly and so cheating is necessary.

i have to get this settled by end of this week. if not, you would probably see my face on the orbiturary page or on my grave engraved on it R.I.P
it may sound serious. because it is serious. if i dun settle it fast. there will be dispute between my mother and i, my father and my mother, my mother and him, and last of all me and his family.

die. so dead. why would this happen at a time like this. why. why. why. tell me why. i thought i could keep my cool. oh well, i am keeping my cool on the surface. yes i am. i'm just venting my frustration here. and i'm glad i did.

during all these times when i'm out with him or texting each other. i know he cared for me. but somehow i don't feel that love at all. somehow it doesnt seem like it is real. it is not something i could put to words but i did some comparison between this old flame and that WOODBLOCK.

of coz i not only compared my old flame with woodblock but also with some other male friends that i know who used to be interested in me and how they approach and what is the feel like. but i can only compare him to woodblock because we have the same denominator here which is me. they are somewhat my type of guys and i had feelings for them.however, a very different type of feel.

woodblock gave me a more real feel. thinking back on those times when we spent toegther during our overseas tourny. somehow i could feel that he may have really cared for me from the bottom of his heart. he meant it. his actions, gestures and words.he meant it.

old flame is more of like a playing feel. although from the time i know him till now, he did mature a lot.trust me, he was damn freaking fugging childish in the past. but that's all in the past and right now he may turn out to be a not a bad guy. having said that, i dont feel anything from him.

a lady's 6th sense is always damn accurate. i'm not being bias here. really. but my heart doesnt tell me that old flame is the man for me. or the guy i want to be in a realtionship with. his actions, gestures or words doesnt seem to be what he wants to say. it feels more like, he is saying it because he knows i want to hear it. it feels like he is rushing it.

woodblock may be irritating at times. sometimes hot sometimes cold. i dont understand what you're thinking as well. nevertheless, those time that i spent with you really felt different. you're honest. straight forward and the feeling you portray is innocent.

taking dinner or lunch for example. the way the two of them talks and the way they acted towards me are so different. old flame cares more about going to a more high class restaurant, not to be embarassed in front of me. woodblock is more of like taking care of what i need. like sharing food with me since i'm indecisive. THAT is the difference.

SMS.woodblock would ask if we're on the right route home. if i would need an umbrella and telling me the weather is going to rain. old flame would ask how's my day. if i miss him or not.not to work so much and burn my weekends off and when can we meet again.erm, people, can you spot the difference?

when we walk.old flame would walk beside me and try to do funny things like hold my hand and stuff. ok, i can understand this part why guys do that. but it is damn not natural. he would try to pace me so that he would have his chance.woodblock would also walk beside me. but he is walking by my side and not BESIDE me. the difference is, woodblock ensures that i wont be walking alone. whereas old flame has an ulterior motive.

look, i'm not speaking up for woodblock. really i'm not. but this is what my feel tells me so. well, all along i'm a very kinestatic person. so feel to me is important. sigh.

that's why i always say, when anything that comes to the heart, it's the most difficult issue to tackle. and to be honest. romance is damn troublesome. relationship is like a burden. after this, i better learn my lesson and stay away from potential harmful males.

actually, it's more of having more self-control and awareness. sometimes it's not good to let your heart overpower your brain. there are times where you brain has to lead your heart to make decisions. i guess this shows that i'm still so emotional. so damn emotional. and childish.

i have to seriously reflect on my own mistake this time round. not all males out there are just your friends or buddies. argh! OSN!!!!!! get a hold of yourself man. what is wrong with you. damn it.

Manga Review: Mademoiselle Butterfly

Manga: Mademoiselle Butterfly
Genre: Historical, Romance, Drama, Shoujo
Status: Completed. 9 chapters.

Story:
It talks about an apprentice Geisha back in the 1900s by the name of *Butterfly. She was sold when she was 9 years old because of poverty. However, the only lucky thing for her is that her neighbour who lives beside the Geisha house she works in, happens to be a young chap who always look after her.

He is from a rich family and his father is a well known paintist. His brother is a wealthy businessman, however due to some incident that happened in the past, he left house and became a tattooist. And so, every day Butterfly would visit him during her free time and requested for him to paint on her wrist. From here, that's how their love for each other develop.

However, things did not goes as smoothly as they have planned. Because of the war, the young tattooist has to leave her behind to go to the front line. He leaves her in the care of his older brother and father, and at that time when he leaves, she is already carrying his child, a twin.

After many years, the war did not end and they could only communicate via mail, until one faithful day he stops sending her letter for a year and the next thing she know, she receives the notification that he died during the war.

Left alone with her 2 children who are 4 years old, the father and the brother. She has almost given up her life and did not want to live anymore. At the time, it was her 2 children who gave her the courage to move on in life and to be stronger as a mother of 2, to protect her children just like how he protected her in the past.

*note that a Geisha does not uses her real name but their "Geisha" name. So in this case, Butterfly is that young lady's Geisha name.

This story gives a different feeling unlike other romance manga/manhwa that I have read so far. Only for this manga, I have decided to skip some parts of the story. Whatever that was written in here is not the full story and it does not end with the last paragraph.

If this interests you, you may want to try reading. It is a short series and a fulfilling one.

Saturday Night Fever!

Had to work on a Saturday morning, Eve of a public holiday...How sad can that be...and what makes it worst is that the music school i'm working in held a concert and i was the MC for that morning...Although it sounds like i'm complaining, it is one of the most fun saturday nights i ever had.

The concert was a success, and though there were a few unforeseen circumstances, i manage to get through with it. Trust me, i was nervous all the while when I was speaking infront of the audiences and half way through, it burns out so much of my energy that i can hear my stomach talking to me. I was afraid that the growling was too loud that it can be heard over the mic. LOL. luckily it didn't.

After me, it's siew mei's turn to MC in the afternoon. She was pretty nervous herself but she did well. and same as me, she felt hungry half way through. But looking at all those kids playing on the piano and violin, really makes me happy. They may not be my students of my children, but somehow i enjoyed watching their performance on stage.

The Seimpi gang headed towards malaysia for a trip, siew mei headed out for steamboat at the singapore flier and as for me, i headed out to meet the CSC gang at ion orchard and orchard hotel. and the journey of coma-ing begins.

We shopped a bit at ion, and it's damn freaking crowded and packed with human beings at every corner. We had to queue for like more than 45mins to get a table for dinner at some teppanyaki store. however, the wait is not wasted and i shared with sam kimchi chicken rice. although she did most of the cooking part, i helped out a bit here and there. yea, just a bit of here and there. lol

Des, Gerard, Travis and Tina bought like 6 bags of stuff from NUM. most of it are Havainas slippers. well, that's because it was on 50% discount on 2nd item. but it is till maddness. we got tired and hungry from waiting for them, that we headed down to the basement to grab some bite before our dinner.

Early in the morning, they went out to sentosa. It looks fun but i didnt get a chance to go with them. I wished i did since it has been a while. Anyway, there is always more to come.

After all the shopping and dinner at ion, we went back to the hotel to rest for the night. the room was amazingly small and there is a big hole on the wall that links to the toilet. so in other words, those who are not in the toilet can see who ever is in the toilet and vice versa. thank goodness there is a blind but still it feels unsafe.

we started playing guessing numbers. and i tagged team with sam, marc and edward. edward is amazingly good at it. and marc's hand can stop shivering. it was damn funny. clement, gerard, tcf and travis form up a team against ours. we lost quite a number of rounds and before we know it, we drank quite a lot.

Gerard, who is the culprit for edwards strange behaviour, was happily mixing "orange juice" with vodka. that "orange juice" had no juice left inside but more vodka. omg. and the drinks he mixed for us, taste like vodka shots. and i drank so much that my stomach burns. all thanks to gerard. but i wasn't dead drunk. i know my limits. =)

edward helps me drink quite a bit after the other 2 knock out and as a result, he pukes and ended up sleeping in the bath tub. poor gerard has to dry him with a hair dryer. it was damn funny. and then, everyone fell asleep after that. all of us had a long day and was really tired by 4am.

it's a crazy night but we had lots of fun. it has been quite sometime since i last hang out with csc gang and i really had my fun. i will be lookng forward to more cray things from them.

Trip to Philippines

Hi all, i'm finally back from my tourny in philippines, manila. I had my fun and really enjoyed myself.

Bowling was avaerage, i think that i've already did my best but it just that i'm not good enough to win. anyways, the scores ain't on abf website, you've got to go to www.jbowlmart.com to see the scores for the qualifying and masters.

As usual, the scores are like monsters. So, basically i was bowling with a bunch of monsters and some human that has not yet transformed into one. in other words, it's an unripe monster, LOL. kidding. but the scores are really damn high.

putting that all aside, manila may be the capital of philippines, but it is not as developed as you think it would be. there are children out there in the streets that will come to you to ask for money. there are at least one security guard in every shops and there are security everywhere. it felt safe and yet unsafe.

played in the casino and lost about 5000pesos. convert it to SGD and that will be roughly $240. Roulette is fun but Bacarat has more chance of winning. Jackpot is stupid, but still there are people winning. like my lucky room mates who made their winnings through jackpot.

the food there is very salty and the drinks there are very sweet. their mangos are damn nice. especially thei ice-cream. the bowling centre has a very unique design with pillars in between lanes.

guess what, that centre has 39 lanes. weird isn't it? so i asked, does the number here starts with 0? everyone's laughing. lane 39 is just some odd lanes out of nowhere. the lane number starts with 1.

but oh well, bowling will all the pillars out of nowhere makes it challenging. although it's irritating and annoying since i always hit the pillars, this is what makes this game interesting and fun. came in 7th for classified. cash out a bit and it went back to the casino.

nothing much to shop and i've beenon my room watching animes half of the time. missed singapore food and was really tired since our flight is at 4pm and we were at the airport at 2pm. flight turbulence was terrible when we went, but it was better when we came back.

catching up on my animes and mangas updates. seems like i didn't miss out too much. will be back to training on wednesday and tomorrow is my only day off. gonna rest to my heart's content.
