A rose blossoming in the season of spring. A sunrise waiting to peek its glorious rays over the mountains. A secret hidding inside the pandora's box. An angel voice waiting to be heard

Girls Night Out

Well finally been able to find time to blog! This was probably 2wks ago lol. Its the first time i brought the kids on an official girls night out! They've been really good, and corny, and really fun to hang out with! i picked them up from tampines and these 2 girls, Clara & Cherish (long hair) really noisy! i bought them Japanese lunch and we bought tickets to Material Girls, well ordinary chick flick but we all enjoyed it.

Anyway these 2 girls are so pervertive! i went into the ladies cubicle and they entered the one next to me with the intention of peeping at me while i was doing my business.. ya! SO EVIL RIGHT. so paiseh and they tried to do it the 2nd time! so bad! but lucky im a nice aunt if not they're in for some piaking!

Thus after, we headed down to Heeren for the 2hr neoprint craze.

Both of them wanted to do the monkey bars and climb WITH SKIRTS ON, i give up lol. so i just pose while they flaunt their stunts. Cherise was so hilarious, while we were taking shots, the pole above fell onto her head HAHHAHA and she just "oww", i was asking her "come down quick!!" but she kept laughing and laughing and eventually rolled down the seat rofl.

I also asked them to do the heart shape with their hands but it was sorta overlayed by the border! T_T Cherise really looks veri photogenic! So good with the face emotions, Clara looks veri sweet and they had so many poses~ While i just had like several SAME poses -_- so lousy
. All in all, we took $30 of neoprints ROFL~

On the journey home, Cherise made sucha huge commotion cos she HAS THIS REALLY ROFL HABIT of LICKING PPL! Everywhere, from the moment i met her, it was lick arm, lick hand, lick face lol, so dighusting! but veri cute also lol. She declared that its her passion to lick ppl and her current hobby is to try to lick as fast as possible HAHAHAHA. so funny! Clara and i got owned in the mrt trying to siam from her venomous lickings. There was a pregnant lady she almost banged into several times, so scary la! but we all had sucha good laugh. oh and they also loved paopaocha as much as i do!! =D

Oh and on the way to Heeran, this hot mtv vj whom i didnt know was a vj initially(i thot they were newbies), picked me out and asked me to request for a song. Think it was Channel V remote control. I didnt know what channel that was for til i returned home asked abt it, so sua ku cos i said i dunno this program ROFL. i requested for Pero Me Aquerdo De Ti and when i said it he just gave me the look," can u pls repear that again?!" VERI CHEESY! Read abt him in 8days this wk, Dominic smth, Cherise told my mom he was her type of man she likes. MAN ok. lol

Anyway they crashed at my place and were veri guai! miss them so much now!

All right here are some of the pictures! Blogger's a lil screwed so i got frustrated trying to upload the pictures over and over again.







Gosu acting! Cherise so innocent!








This is my favourite picture! The one they tried to do the heart! i think the castle looks beautiful!


As you can see, Cherise seems to be the stronger of both and Clara is gettin viciously owned below lol.





Thanks to my cousin who helped me scanned the pictures and bordered it! Didnt haf to use picasa!

I'll blog again soon, overdued entries!

If You Didn't Love Me


IF YOU DIDN'T LOVE ME

If every drop of water disappeared from the land
And every drop of ocean suddenly turned to sand
That would all be nothing
Compared to what I'd feel
If you didn't love me

What if I woke up and couldn't hear a sound
And all that I could see was darkness all around
That would still be nothing
Compared to what I'd feel
If you didn't love me

If I could have the world and all that money could buy
And I could travel far beyond the moon and the sky
If they gave me golden wings, well I still couldn't fly
Without you, nothing would matter

You and I walk beside each other day after day
But there's so much inside me, I never get to say
My life would be so empty with nothing left to feel
If you didn't love me
If you didn't love me.

Simplicity is Divine


I've finally come to realise where my favourite shopping hangout is - the Supermarket. If i take the no. of times i visit the supermarket a wk multiply by the amt i spend every visit in a month, 2 x $15 x 4 = $120, i would actually be able to purchase 3 tops and a bottom from bugis village! I like to shop alone, and sometimes with Fish. And that's because it's the only time when he tells me i can have anything i want and he pays for the groceries, plus i love bonding time! We hardly spend time together, and we'd make several trips to the market everytime he books out.

And i've recently adopted the semi-healthy lifestyle, semi because the areas which im lacking are partially diet and solely exercise. i dun exercise and that's probably why i fall sick so often. However i've been feeling good and happy! My leathery skin is recovering, my migraines occur less than often and most importantly, I GO TO SCHOOL.

I was just relating this to a fwen - About how simple my life has been these few wks, from hectic late nights to absolute ennui to self-contentment. I'm still probably at level 2, and i feel that everyday i'm learning. This morning, my mom almost knocked a person down, scratch that, the man almost got himself knocked down. He was astounded and so were we! He literally jumped backwards when my mom honked at him(and this was the look on his face O_O!!!!!!!!!!!). It was a little scary but my dad taught me smth (indirectly), he said that man was probably from China, lived in the suburbs, wanted to make more for his family. In China, the traffic infrastructure is built differently from ours here, so he probably looked the other way when he was crossing the road, hasnt gotten quite used to it here i guess. Lol so my mom said he was scared out of his wits when he made his way across the road. And they were debating whether it was a person's attitude or recklessness that causes accidents. She also said it was his mistake for walking w/o making sure it was safe to walk, but "he's not the only one who does it, everyone makes that mistake, when you don't look carefully into the windscreen etc". Nvr knew my mom could be so deep HAHAHAHA.

And im thankful for my parents, it's not everyday ppl get to spend quality time with their parents, or ask how their day went, if we made a new fwen in school. Someone said children make mistakes because parents don't spend enough time with their children to correct them, teach them, so they find other alternatives to mi bu (compensate) them, and the time lost. Today my parents inspired me! =D~

Sometimes i have this uncanny feeling whenever my mom says smth totally unexpectedly, and i think,"hey that was exactly what was on my mind". For instance, when my godmother ask my mom why she wore out her new shirt she just got this morning and teased her,"Who you wanna show it off to?", she replied in Teochew," No one la, i don't dress up for others to see, i dress up for myself, make myself happy can alr". So cool~ Well most ppl wouldnt buy that cos most ppl are too concerned abt what others think of them, and dress to impress. I still do care, but their opinions hold little regard and have little influence on me since. Which is.. positive!

I'm so much like my mother, my dad always claims that we're so similar, that i cant make up my mind on clothes, i always ask others usually the family if i dressed ok, if the shoes matched, that's partly cos i don't have a life-sized mirror at the balcony and sometimes, i just feel diffident and needed some encouragement. And he told me once," If you like someone just go ahead, have a relationship with him, don't bother about what your mother say(abt having more options etc), she can be very nonsense and wants everything to be done her way." ROFL, so like me! He says im veri idealistic, super hygiene freak, and a perfectionist. Lol which reminds me that Eric always tell me funny facts about myself that i nvr realised till he mentioned and i'll go " YA YA YA!!". Lol. he's sick, and i wish him well and i'll pray for him the next time i visit the temple. HONOURED TO BE ON PRAYING LIST?

Anyway, my life has probably been sch-home-market-family outings. I like it, but i reckon i'm gonna get sick of it sooner or later since i havent met close fwens for the last couple of wks. But i really enjoy it, i like the short quiet time spent drinking my paopaoccha while walking home everyday, having mommy's home-cooked food, feeling energised when i wake up in the morning and having all the time to read and think to myself.

Because awhile ago, i had been having this conflicting psychic struggle about letting go all those material stuff and spending less money, only necessarily (tho i still don't but still trying!) and i told Fish about it. About how i wanted to start salsa lessons a yr ago with Attap-Chi, about jogging, about slping early about being less self-centred and nvr got about doing it. He's so learned~he told me plain talk doesnt get anything done, it's the cause of action i choose to take that will ultimately change my course of direction and achieve my goal. I'm so glad i have him, he's always there to advise me, inspire me and understand me, not every guy can do that! Most of the time, it takes another person to help you understand yourself and Fish definitely knows me better than i do myself. So i've finally taken the first step to slping early! Easy said, it was so hard cos an activity like chattin on msn or dota cld delay my slp for more than an hr.

And just ytd, you told me i had become somewhat a woman. that means im growing up AND GROWING OLD. Not that i really mind, but it's kinda sad! And i've got this weird tendency of being a little girl when im with you, i wonder if that'll change when i age. you tell me to keep it natural and it keeps me sane. I'm your warm cup of milo right? o^_^o

Oh and I really admire girls who can do foul faces, big pouts and make their face blown up and still look cute, lol, i just cant do it and still look good, probably infront of my mom just to aggravate her cos she says it looks really ugly,"want to act cute also not like that one mah". HAHAHAHA. But i just like it. my mommy is pulchritudinous, in every aspect. And i want to be just like her.

And this is my baby nieces singing Caocao! Been doing this alot with them!

I'm many other things..

Rofl i miss my childhood! Not every part of it, but well for the most part, i do.

And i realise i've always been given veri peculiar or naughty names since a little girl, and i think i still rmb some of them! And for the past years with Fish, he always invented really funny nicknames whenever i make a sound or do smth weird. So, the list goes on:


Baby years:

Xiaoping - Everyone in my family calls me by this name, xiaoping jiejie, xiaoping yiyi, xiaoping gugu. heh veri easy for the kids to pronounce my name, but unfortunately for my sister, it can be really embarrassing when the kids or sometimes fwens mispronounce and make subtle jokes of her name. Rujiao would become Hujiao, Lajiao, Xiangjiao and eventually "L*nJiao" yiyi. Veri memorable indeed Clarabelle! My sister's really sensitive!

Huai ren - My favourite cousins used to call me that all the time after "XIAOPINGGGGGG AH!", when i make trouble at their homes. i would go arnd watering the plants THEN pluckin the petals off the beautiful flowers in my uncle's garden and help him cut off the grass with his huge scissors whahahha. And he would get so mad! Every sunday. Yeah.


Aged 6-12:

Xiao Ping Guo - That's what the bus auntie/uncle used to called me when i took the schoolbus home. I was always the last passenger and auntie would always get 4d or Toto numbers from me! And i haf no idea why but i haf never paid the bus fees at the end of every month lol.

Oh, and those childhood games you used to play with your neighbours? Zero Point or block soccer and just hanging out at the playground at 5 every day. i miss miss miss my old neighbourhood fwens cos we'd bring out our rope made out of rubber bands, rollerblades and soccer ball and just race and run arnd the blocks playing hide-n-seek everyday. We nvr really knew each other's names cos we call one another by our nick names, usually after a favourite fruit.

Haha, i rmb Banana (my close close gf who drank beer at 10), and her brother rambutan. The twins, and this pretty girl who used to sit on the swing with me and just chat, she was in SAC too but i was too shy to talk to her, think her real name is Deorene or smth. Oh my sister was orange and my brother was coconut when he was old enuff to race with us lol.

Omg u know we used to challenge one another to fly out of the swing and see who lands the furthest wld be the winner, im damn pro at that, but once i really landed hard on my chest, piak, SO PAIN omfg. zz. And donald duck and white ranger who i played soccer with, and Genevie who always offered me those fruity vitamins and who taught me to rollerblade like a pro! She inspired my sister to rride the bicycle i think, and shame on me, still cant ride a bicycle, giveup.

Mu Lao Hu - ROFL, that's cos i used to fight the boys so much, this boy called Edwin in my class started calling me tigress tang. The girls, i rmb June used to ask me to avenge them cos the boys bully them. This bian tai boy called Danny Heng enjoyed bio-ing girl's panties when he was in pri 2 OK! WDF, who taught him that, see we can even rmb his name. danny dada heng. giveup.

Oh once during pri 4, i wasn't taking the usual bus anymore, i moved to Simei and this bus was hell. The bus driver was horrid, the boys were big bullies and the girls were SOOOOOOOOOO vain and no one helped me! i usually bochup but once this boy was so arrorgant and shouted at the bus uncle and the uncle thought he cld tame the boy when he brought out his CANE HAHAHAHAHA, so funny right, kept a cane in the bus rofl but the boy was so rebellious he #^!#%!#$% the uncle till he lanlan. Then i kan bu xia and lashed out at him. ROFL GG! Since then the journey home was toturous, everyone wanted to dui fu wo but i always sat near the uncle cos he had cane rofl and tried to ignore them.

However one day, i rmbed it was a saturday morning, we started arguing again and i felt veri helpless cos the battle was like bus boys/girls VS xiaopingguo, and one of the boys dared the arrogant boy to slap me. And i yelled," YOU DARE!" aND HE spit AT ME, he SPIT AT ME omfg, FIRE!! i think i was really angry and i morphed into justice gwen! a veri violent one tho, i jumped and hung onto the bars and lifted my legs and kick him so hard, i think he got owned but he retaliated like hit me on my hand or smth gg, i felt veri scared ROFL. then i think i was reaching my place, i quickly alighted the bus and stoned on the ground for a long long time and started sobbing. i think i was scared shit, and i nvr sat on that bus again. =/ mighty gwen! well at least now i dun haf to fend for myself, fish will protect me! ROFL


Aged 12-16:

Pubic Hair - This has got to be THe most humiliating 2 words anyone has ever used on me. I had veri weird curly twigglish hair after i chopped my long hair off when i was 12. and this notorious gang in my sch didnt like me cos they thought i "stole" their good fwen away cos she started hanging out with me alot. But hey i didnt force her to be my fwen or backstabbed them since i nvr knew them. And this girls wld bang into me intentionally near the corridoors and call me names when they pass me by. I still rmb their names and i really loathed them. i was pretty much intimidated in sch until i had a veri close bunch of fwens i made from wc3. i miss kl and john and keith and sulin, kenny and gang! i felt veri safe! And i knew they'll always haf my back when i need them. Anyway the girls turned out to be ahlians now! im not really rejoicing but i really didnt haf a good time at all in school. i was sucha cry baby, luckily i had my daddy who'd always listen to my rubbish and headaches and tuck me in bed. i know veri odd for a 13yr girl.

oh some of my brother's fwens calls him that too. They don't know that it can be quite hurtful, he big ego big pride. but i think it just sounds really awful. =/


Aged 16-18:

Piggy Gwen - Given by DsD)Delete(, lol we used to eat at mac alot cos there was always the 20nuggets promo and i wld gobble down most of the nuggets Reny bought and he'd be so unhappy abt it! Everytime he says! John always bought me my favourite meiji chocolates, and the then, vanilla milkshake. my bearbear! He bought kl and i this star pillow that was really in then, forgot what it was, those made from sand i think..

Carrot legs - By reny, cos i was quite fat then, too much gelare and nuggets and food overall.

Shrek - I took a picture with John's shrek toy when i was veir bahbah (meaty)! Cow also had a thing abt naming my boobs. ROFL, Suez Canal and.. i forgot the other, mount smth, evermore? Thanks to the gosu photographers hurhur!


Since i met you at 17:

Baby tiger - He's been calling me baby tiger cos i was playing Tekan on his psp and i was struggling to win and he said i look like a baby tiger pawing and battling hard with his psp. ROFL i felt so paiseh as if i was gonna smash his psp. Perhaps cos i make too much noise when i play wc3 or dota or fighting games lol.

Over the years..he's got me multiple names..

1. gwengwen
2. daodangui
3. googoogaga
4. mophead (when i had that doll hair lol)
5. naughtygirl
6. baobao
7. da lan zhu
8. little apple/kitten
9. mama bear ( yeah, the thing with Godilocks and the 3 bears)
10. mafan dan
11. pussycat
12. litte girl
13. bombergirl!

And i love my meowmeow!~ Be strong ok!

Whether it had been a good past or an unhappy one, i am still veri contented. And veri exciting when i think of it again whahahah. i think i liked to fight alot that's why i enjoy fighting games so much. a za a za fightiNgS! o^-^o
