shopping was great and men are hot. everyone's so friendly and the weather was warm. the city is clean and our hotel was brill so all in all its a great place to be!

some things on my mind

2007-03-20T13:54:00.000Z

i seem to have to much to think about these days-

plans for my near future- where to work or study at,
should i go home to work then come back to do my masters?
should i do my masters here straightaway?
if so, where?
is dublin feasible for me?
should i work or study there?
if so, i should be applying now.......

plans for my nearer future- the final exams :(
omg omg omg

plans for the even nearer future- essay and project deadlines,
the analysis of my questionnaires,
the results and discussion,
the 8000 word project plus the damned poster presentation,
the last 3000 word essay,

boohoo boohoo, i hate stress i hate it i hate it!
i have been doing nothing for long enough and my brain just cant cope with all this thinking-

i hate crossroads in life, i hate not knowing what the future holds. i hate making a life-changing decision. i just want to live a think-less life.

but then again this is all part of growing up- decisions decisions and more decisions. why o why. i wish i was 6.

and not to mention that the british weather is really fucked up. like really really fucked. it seemed that spring was here and temperatures rose, the sun shines on everything pretty and its comfortably warm. then all of a sudden, it starts snowing! weather forecast alerts that the north is in for heavy snow and then today it snow dizzled in exeter. exeter! way in the south-east and there's snow! crazy crazy crazy,

i've never carried a brolly out in sg, despite the frequent convectional rains we get so frequently- of course its because im so damn lazy.

but lo and behold, here i will make sure my brolly is out with me. every single time. you know why? because it can turn from bright sunshine to gloomy rainpour in a matter of seconds. and i mean seconds!

and thats not it, my trusty umbrella has to be wind-resistant (like super super strong) or it'll definitely be turned the funny way round. and you need to know when to face your umbrella where (right angle against the direction of the wind) or there's no use trying to have an unbrella cos the top would surely fly off. either that or your arms, if you have trained some muscles. i also have to take care of the metal rods sticking into my eye.

so there,
so much to think of when you go out.
the damned weather.

hence i conclude that i don't like the british weather. make that, i fucking hate the british weather and you wonder why the brits always complain about it. they have every reason to.

on a lighter and much happier note.
i'm going to venice/ verona tmr!!
yay warm weather here i come!!
will take loads of pictures and upload them, cant wait to go and never come back to stress- haha

ok i think this is one epic post to make up for the recent lack of. :)

my brain is dying

2007-03-11T15:18:00.000Z

i am taking a hiatus from books. haha fucking long that i can feel the degeneration of my brain cells. help.

haha on another note, it was Carol's birthday last friday and we went to the firestone again! cos its such a lovely place for dinner! carol looked gorgeous in her outfit. esp her new dress from bay! hehe pictures!

Happy Birthday Carol!

dinner table

you want boobies?

carol, akua, me, ajobi

cam, maha, chinese princess (haha)
la-las :)

love lost is never love lost

2007-03-06T02:20:00.000Z

to waimin and yuchu, my dearests. love lost is never really love lost. devi can attest to that- having loved someone for 7 years, a love that was not reciprocated, a love that was not your daily kind of love, a love that only resides in the deepest corners of your heart. a love that might not be the final destination.

new hope always comes- look at devi and how happy she has become. i wish the same upon myself and my other girls- waimin and yuchu!

march the third 2007- 03.03.07

2007-03-04T01:11:00.000Z

this day is special for us.

we woke up early in the morning for a day trip to cardiff.

we saw 5 beautiful rainbows on our way there. complete, pretty, pretty rainbows. and five. can u imagine. we were so happy and felt so blissful..

we spent a day in cardiff, looking at some rich man's castle and then did shopping.

we came home and had some crab for dinner.

we sat in my room, with the lights dim, the air warm, music playing in the background, staring out my window- waiting for the earth's shadow to cover the moon. while waiting we realised we had such a once-in-a-lifetime day together.

a day that might never happen again in in the far future, after 4 months when we have each gone our separate ways. and we vowed to remember march the 3rd 2007- 03.03.2007 for as long as we can, and its cool cos there are 3 of us to represent this special day. i feel sad thinking that we are gonna part soon. and the best time of our lives are coming to an end. i hope this friendship will not end here, despite how difficult it is to meet up and keep in contact. we want to come together to watch the eclipse when we are 60 and 80 haha.

i love you both, my darlings, my la-las, my camilla and my devi. thank you for this special day, i will remember this in my heart :)

xoxo.

music and lyrics

2007-02-28T03:07:00.000Z

today me, cam and devi (my la-las: cam says in china in means lesbian partners) and akua and carol made it to the new cinema in exeter, vue, to catch a movie.

i realised ive never watched a movie with my la-las before so this is a first. heh, virgin experience with them. it occured to me to be wierd cos we are so close and do almost everything together, spend most our time with one another and never been to the movies. so we decided to go.

music and lyrics is a romantic comedy therefore we were in agreement for it.

has hugh grant singing and dancing retro so i like it. haha his retro hairstyle and dance moves remind me a little bit of f4 (haha my disgraceful past infatuation of the taiwanese boy band that i shared together with angie, meelin, fiona, magdalene- haha we go down together girls). dao ming si in particular for the hair. haha anyway tho i have no feelings for f4 now, i wonder if i will still reminisce the past like those mature (or should i just say old) woman ga-gaing over alex-fletcher, the has-been singer (hugh grant) of boyband, pop, in the 1980s. maybe not f4 but aniki jin or takuya kimura, would still stand a chance.

anyway i like the song 'way back into love'- nice.... hehe i always fall for these pop, catchy love songs... hmm.. (so i went to go downl**d and have it playing now and starts thinking that the one sung by hugh grant n drew barrymore in the movie is much cleaner and likes it better so went to search for it and youtube came up)

and so now im thinking about what else i wanted to blog about-

thinking..

thinking....

i give up, u know u have all these stuff u want to blog and its gone.

so here are the lovely lyrics and song-

http://youtube.com/watch?v=dU_TmsQvz0Y

I've been living with a shadow overhead
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I've been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past, I just can't seem to move on

I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need em again someday
I've been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
Oh oh oh

I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I've been searching but I just don't see the signs
I know that it's out there
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere

I've been looking for someone to shed some light
Not just somebody just to get me through the night
I could use some direction
And I'm open to your suggestions

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end

There are moments when I don't know if it's real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration
Not just another negotiation

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart to you
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
And I you help me to start again
You know that I'll be there for you in the end

i dedicate this song to wai min- i love you babe and i know :)

2007-02-27T00:33:00.000Z

you know you are getting old when you start talking about your future. you know you are a woman getting old when you start talking about future husbands. you know you are a mature woman getting old when you talk about future husbands and money and house and wedding. you know you are getting godamn old when you worry about not having a steady boyfriend at 22, as time would fly by so quickly and then you are 27, 28, 29-- (dont mention it...) 30! omg

haha anyway 3 girls sat in a room talking about our current love lives and beaus and imagining the future, near future? wedding, honeymoon, house and contraception? the wonders you get to when 3 girls, or should i say women, get together. we talked, chatted, thought and chatted somemore until our housemate told us to lower it down at 2am.

i really love my girls, and will miss these girl talk sessions. and i hope that in the future we will still miss each other and be in contact. and i also hope we will be with the partners that we are with now. because, each of us know each other's partner all too well now. we know them like we've always known them. and one day, in the (near) future, i hope that we can triple date? or just let the boys meet the girls. sigh, will it happen? i hope it does, to fulfill the dreams of 3 maturing girls...
hehe its quite nice that each of us understands one another, to the emotions that one has for our partners. to the physical desires and the long distance aches. its so nice to have company in close friends. who feel what u feel, think what u think. put us 3 together and its still bliss.

on another note, cam and i went for a 'picture'-resque walk around exeter as the sun's up for a long time! join me in my sunny exeter walk! hehe,

ps: omg i thought uploading pics are easy but they r not in order! boohoo, i cant be bothered to make it in order haha but these are the unordered shots!

dinner @ firestone

2007-02-24T01:00:00.000Z

i jus realised how easy it is to post pictures so im going to put pictures up more now! yay! haha tonight we decided to go out for dinner at the firestone bar and restaurant. it serves good food for reasonably reasonable prices. i miss a good steak so i ordered rump steak, cam had lamb shank and devi and raj had fish&chips and sweet chilli chicken. we also had some dessert to end the night. a nice chit-chat night, where we exchange alot of inneundos. haha raj can officially join the club of 'dirty' talk. hehe, pictures!!

im so lucky

2007-02-24T00:18:00.000Z

to have someone love me. for who i am. i know i need to learn to trust, and i will one day. for now, let me be happy...

im happy, happy, happy

today..

2007-02-16T01:22:00.000Z

i finally started back on my proj. ive had a long hiatus/break fm it since like 2 weeks, its time to get back in action.

today i also had my first tiring jog of the year. with raj as the pusher. he will push me to jog a few more meters when i'm really out of breath n wheezing. im so damn unfit im telling you.

today is also the day i did my first sit-ups and leg lifts of the year. haha 2007. anyway i have to do some kinda exercise before more flab piles on.... and on.. and on!

haha and today is the first time akua and carol has ever been to our house. and of cos they loved it. everyone loves our house! and im sure our parents would too when they come for graduation!

its so nice to have a girls get together. but im telling you time is never enough for us. and today i oso realised love is universal. and so are relationships. between boy and girl, of every race or nationality. you see, some of you might not know but akua is from ghana and carol, zimbabwe. and akua has a bf and she tells us the same problems anyone in any relationship faces. of course there are slight culture differences, like how most men would not allow their women dancing sexy moves with another guy. but for the blacks, they dont mind as long as its not too way over the top. but for me it does seem provocative enough, so i asked akua. and she says its fine. so i concluded that rnb is black music and they invented the moves. its the americans that commercialised it and make it sexy n provocative in a bad way.

so thats all for today, been updating regularly and am proud of myself! haha but i dont think most of my frens are still reading my blog. but its ok, then it becomes more private and more private stuffs get revealed! hehe, love all

the pursuit of happiness

2007-02-15T00:23:00.000Z

its post valentines day and on reflection, i had one of my most heart-wrenching moments ever. i think- since i always have them.

haha im a cry baby and everyone knows that. my whole house knows it now cos i always have these big woohoo cries that they say sound like a female ghost..

anyway don u think its wierd that someone can make u fly to the moon, leave u on cloud nine or have that love is empowering feeling. and that same person can also bring u to the depths of hell, tear up your heart and leave it bleeding and sore in pain?

its like a pursuit of happiness. my pursuit of happiness i guess.

and i also realised friends are indeed always on your side. always. all the time. so remember to turn to them anytime. when u need a hug or a 'i love you'.

janice found more love for cam and brandonboyd today.

somethings are meant to happen at that moment i guess.

i appreciate everything, devi's assuring smile, cam's at first awkward hug, raj's corniness and lb's persistence. i guess somethings never change, for now at least.

oh well guys, i love you all.

and family- father, mother i love you.

on a related note, i not stupid 2 is such a brilliant movie, one of singapore's best film, i personally think. love the theatrics and irony and singapore humour. love it love it love it.

if u get a chance, watch it once and again!

on the ending note, janice had a happy valentine's day spent with loved ones. thank you all for it -kiss-

valentines day post

2007-02-14T03:26:00.000Z

guess wat, the surprise of the century i had a hand in!

devi's bf flew all the way from singapore, without her knowing it, came in the afternoon, waited till 12 midnight UK time and went on his knees outside our house. how sweet sweet sweet is that?

sigh this is like the sweetest thing ive ever heard, dont think anyone's love story can beat that now. haha and then he'll be wrecking his brains for his marriage proposal huh. but it's all so sweeet and i helped in hiding this all from devi, picking him up, bringing him to get the flowers and then hiding in my room till the times here.

alright enough of envy

and my val's day message to all,

I LOVE YOU!!!

XOXO jan

busy bee

2007-02-05T14:22:00.000Z

im so stressed now

all on my own doing as usual. i had a whole week to do my reading and prepare for my presentation but i didnt do it till today and tmr morn is my next class. godammit.

i feel like ive got so many things on my mind! so many things to do and so many things to settle. ugh

anyway i wanted to blog abt Maha's birthday dinner.
it was a nice restaurant we went to and i had some really yummy lamb shank that won the approval of my girls as they r very particular abt meat smells. as for me it doesnt matter as long as its tender! haha

anyway it was great to have dinner out together and also meet akua, carol and neka! we've been wanting to meet up since last oct but never got round to doing it so it was good being able to meet everyone! hehe

it was a lovely dinner and we had a lot of great catching up that we did. talking abt whos with who, who's gonna get married and flying to ghana! its amazing eh to have frens fly in fm across the world to your wedding. how cool is that. i just hope we still keep in touch and i still get a wedding invite. if any of u don invite me ill just self invite haha. i will be there girls i will be.

its so wierd that wedding plans are actually being talked abt now it just goes to show how godamn old we're are and fast getting :( bleaurgh ill always be young! haha

haha anyway, maha looked gorgeous and she's just so pretty we all agreed. haha all my girls were all so pretty too! ok pics up as soon as i get them :)

ok gotta go back to some reading before my gp kills me if i dun carry my own weight! (no freakin' pun intended!)

love.

2007-02-02T01:16:00.000Z

tanya says i should write longer posts

2007-02-01T23:36:00.000Z

so here goes

haha some updates first, i guess,

ive been sleeping loads, eating loads of junk food and watching loads of youtube since i got back from my trip with wai. its like i need to recuperate and rest you know?

haha also ive been starting this temp job, that lasts only a week. calling people up again- something similar to what i did last term (calling uni alumni asking them to donate), but i didnt blog abt. hehe.

this time im just calling fresh grad to find out what they are doing, whether they've got a job or if they are unemployed. so this brings me to my life crisis: im in my final year and i have no idea what i wanna do. i dunno if i wanna do a masters. and if i do, where and wat. i dunno if i wanna work, and if i do where and wat. i dunno i dunno i dunno. and my mom wants me to do more studying and my dad says he doesnt care as long as i am happy and i have absolutely no idea. boohoo. boohoo.

stress stress. i just feel that ill be led somewhere somehow by the lords grace and mercy. so procrastination is they way to go. forget researching jobs or masters courses. ill be led by the horn somewhere sometime. maybe ill take a gap year.

tanya o tanya wat do i do? hahaha

anyway more abt my trip to london/dublin.

first, poor wai had a really tough time trying to get herself to london. she thought she was gonna miss her flight cos she missed her train. then when she arrived way before time she realised her flight was cancelled due to bad weather. the poor girl waited a whole 7 hrs before her flight and wasted a whole day cos she only got in at night. but then again we lived in a lovely lovely english house, with a lovely couple- betsy and maurice- dad's frens. the house was really pretty n so english that we wanted to take pics but forgotten too. haha

anyway next time when i go i will try to remember. london was really short and not exactly well-spent cos i only had 1.5 days as i had to go represent my dad's company out of london for a day. so wai had to do most sightseeing herself. im sorry wai! london deserves more! but the modern tate museum was really amazing! haha lovely contemporary art and literature and haha slides!! i have to go back there! cos they have these slides from the 2-5th floor and u slide down! its so fun but wai gets scared...

haha one thing abt this trip is i found new things abt this friend. that she's scared of slides (rolls eyes- i know). she loves turkish delight (rolls eyes- i know). she's scared of the long escalators in london tube stations. wat else, she's doesnt pda. haha erm and some others that i cant rem off hand but i learnt more abt this woman. its wierd we're so alike (hickey's -->this store name in dublin that we laugh at and 'nam nuo hor leck ge geou' --> something my grandma n her mom chants at) but yet we're so not alike (she doesnt like to take touristy pics, nor show any affection to zolly, and loves turkish delight). haha so we're not all the same.

ok i think this post is way too long but i dun care cos tanya loves it long.

wat else.. dublin was more fun as we had a local tour guide ( her beau used to work there see and he had a fren who works there so..) temple bar is the place to be for pubs and clubs and wat have you. we had smoked something slim and it was so vogue and so cool! haha i love my mysteric words haha. irish folk music is soooo fun and the pubs are huge and everyones all so friendly. cider was a yum yum yummy and so was ale. apparently irish women are big, loud and boarish. and we saw some and saw others. i loved my girls comapany and her zolly wasnt too bad. he was nice and romantic but was more fluent in hungarian. so it was a pity but i had a great time! thank u wai min, thank him for me and thank his frens! and i love you~

haha ok im getting really long-winded tanya hun and i think ive written too much and everyone's gonna get bored but its ok, im doing this for you.

love love and might say more next time and hope i get pics from wai wai soooon

janice xxx

2007-01-31T23:43:00.000Z

i loved london and dublin. especially spending some quality girl time with waimin. i hope to put up some pics soon!!

babel is a fantastic movie it moves and gets me thinking.

making love through the internet is such a hard thing to do. trying to maintain some kind of connection without being able to touch and feel, is so hard.

sometimes things seems so difficult to do, sometimes it doesnt. lets hope the difficult times go away.

im back

2007-01-15T19:17:00.000Z

which proves that i will definitely start blogging once again. but i bet all of you out there have given up on me, but its ok ill continue still.

essay deadlines are this fri and im am f**ked. now u know why im blogging. its procrastination.

also, ive started on a new project. i want a revamp. new blog skin but i think i might have to move the whole blog to somewhere else cos i dunno how to "just change the skin", so when the new blog is up and running i'll make a grand announcement. haha

hmm, nothing much, nothing interesting. i think ive stopped blogging for too long that nothing comes to my mind to blog abt.

so tata for now!

haha happy new year

2007-01-14T19:25:00.000Z

since its the new year, so i shall start blogging once again.

haha im sorry for missing in action.

haha i promise promise to update.

but now i have got nothing to say except,

i saw this very lovely quote from guan's blog

i wanted and needed to put it up somewhere

but putting it on my msn nick is too 'lame' haha and long

so here it is, that

mother theresa says (im no plagiarist)

if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.

cool right,

cheerios for now (i hope, haha)

love to all,
janice

today mum and i went into this really up-market thai restaurant for dinner...

and the part worthy of blogging is that our waiter was a HAM! haha- yes he's a full-blooded hot asian man!!! comparable to HAM from the exeter gym but ooh so yummy!!!!

he's tall, built, chinese, speaks good english and malaysian (my ears do me proud- ni overheard!!) i was hoping he would come chat me up but sigh he didnt, he only asked where we were from.. sigh so near yet so far!! hahaha

even my mum was beo-ing him ok!!! hai so thats something really exciting from here.

my mum is going crazy with shopping in the uk. she bought so much we had to send one luggage my parcel delivery because the flight we're taking to london is strict about overweight luggage. can u believe it! the shops here are great and im looking forward to oxford street in london!!

the last minutes in B208

2006-06-15T04:56:00.000+01:00

it's been one academic year and im leaving exeter soon

i cant believe it but im gonna miss my small room with its even smaller toilet

i realise this morning before i got out of bed that this was the last time i slept on this pillow and the bed- its damn wierd

also the last time im gonna be sitting on this chair and typing on my laptop on this desk.

i can never prop my leg on the sill and watch my cheena piak shows again

and i can never do so many other things like have kfc picnic in lilings room

haha cos firstly liling wont be there and devi and i wont be either haha

liling im gonna miss exeter and you. i know i will see you in sg soon but it's just that you will never live beside me anymore (even tho it was short-lived but im full- haha yeah fed damn full every meal)

its just the idea of us being in exeter as students. even if we were to come back again to visit its never the same. its just like losing your virginity- you know what i mean- once something is gone (this moment in time) its gone- forever.

o god i wanna cry now haha- kidding la

but ya so thank you for all that you've done for devi and i during this one week? i cant believe its only been one week. but luckily its only one week or we'd be so damn fat- right devi? you moving here made this last academic year more memorable.

as for devi- ill still be living with you next year but then again its in a totally new evironment. we've been through quite a lot this year huh but im sure next year will be better! i cant wait to move into stroud lodge!! waha- i mean moving literally yesterday was hardwork but that means we're one feet in! wheehee!!

haha ill c both of u in sg and ill never see sophie and vinita ever again. so damn wierd. so damn wierd.

well overall its been great. new learning experience, new people, new janice

welcome me home singapore! haha in 11 days!! muahahha

love to all in exeter, janice

yes this is another post

2006-06-14T02:05:00.000+01:00

haha i realised i have more to blog- after sitting about 10 minutes :)

i suddenly feel alot of random things

insight- it comes suddenly -haha

i like the song on lynn's blog

i love love love blu blue blueberries!!!

i love the belgium waffles we had

i will miss the kfc picnic in liling's room- haha

i will miss liling + exeter

sigh

ok thats it for now ill blog more when i feel like it muahahha

mentally exhausting

2006-06-14T01:47:00.000+01:00

it is after exams

yes, my exams are over, finally.

but i'm so tired from hanging out with friends (this part of cos i love)

and packing- this is the worst part

trying to do everything i can before i leave for exeter

pms

2006-05-14T17:51:00.000+01:00

its amazing how biologically affected i can get. pms can swing me to the lowest throng of pain, helplessness and desperation and yet bring me to the highest point of feeling carefree, happy and loved.

its all in the body, all in the body.

my period came today! yeah! haha all girls stand up and celebrate!!

to those who are still in the process of pms- bear with it!

i need help

2006-05-12T20:02:00.000+01:00

its so wierd. everytime i think im dying of pain n my body feels limp. someone from home will call or send me a text. its my life buoy. to remind me that im loved. i need to be reminded.

2006-05-03T16:18:00.000+01:00

i read somewhere:

the epitome of pain is feeling pain but not being able to express it because someone else is in pain.

school

2006-04-25T13:13:00.000+01:00

o man im back to classes and lectures.. damn sian.. but o well on the brighter side of things summer hols will be here soon! after i finish my lectures, my exams and my holiday in the uk i can go back home to warm sunny singapore!

hehe missing lb is one thing but appreciating my life alone is another. sometimes i think its good to lie in bed thinking abt the next day or watching my korean dramas. haha and just thinking of the old memories than creating new ones that may not neccessary be pleasant..

oh and the problems of living away from home.. shall i move to a house next year with darling cam? or shall i stay in jo with my beloved sheebs and devi? o no.. decisions im torn!

oh well we're supposed to discuss this after tmr wen we hand in our essays.. haha maybe ill go see the house first then decide. o assignments.. oh i hate them ooh n presentations and more assignments.. i cant wait for summer hols..

my first time across the atlantic ocean

2006-04-21T17:04:00.000+01:00

toronto is a beautiful city, I've fallen deeply in love with the place. I was lucky- the weather was good! sunny and warmy yet not toooo warm. haha i have feet tans.

wai was the best she brought me round everywhere even thought she had her exams round the corner! i've done all i had to do-

the touristy bits: CN Tower (hehe- the tallest free standing structure in the world and i stood on the glass floor!! damn freakin scary i tell u!!) and Niagra Falls (geography... nature.. b-e-a-u-tiful!!!)

the Singaporean bit :food food food fm all over the world! so damn yummy and BIG!shiokamama!!- japanese sushi, ethiopian, chinese dim sum and bubble tea, canadian poutine (fries in gravy and melted cheese! woah! so good we had 2 in a day!!), school buffet, korean pork bone (wa kao! i tell u tender to the core man..hmm), middle-eastern shawarma and supper phad thai..hmmhmm.. so much food its hard to resist!

of course there was the club night- haha two very ferocious felines were scratching each other to death and dancing the night can so lose calories!

and there was the strip club night- women with nice boobs and arses jiggling around on stage making provocative moves (excerpts of our convo: "why her punani like that one?"/ "wah her boob shape so nice") haha i love it.

not to forget shopping- also damn shiok man! queen street/yonge street/eaton centre/bloor yorkville- jus these places can walk until leg pain until wanna die haha got some pretty nice stuffs too!

i love wai i love toronto i love her place

eh and for those who need to know.. lb is back in action! haha ok love all, jan

how things are

2006-03-08T03:08:00.000Z

not being able to sleep is not my thing

im not sure why

maybe its knowing im gonna b on break soon

maybe its the change in my recent relationships

maybe its because its no more lb

maybe its because its motti no more

maybe its cos im growing fatter

maybe its because i have an essay due very soon

maybe its because ive learnt more about the ugliness in this world

maybe its because im dry

maybe its because my friends are going through a hard time

maybe because- life sucks

my first entry on you

2006-02-19T22:57:00.000Z

these days i have been wondering what is love between two people?

i have been confused and been thinking about what defines it and what creates it-
and i doubted my own ones

very just now, 30 minutes ago,
i felt a feeling of unease throughout my body. i thought it might be just me being uncomfortable going to bed early. it is not like me ever-i felt so uncomfortable that even if i had to turn on my comp again- usual me would never resort to that but the lazy me was willing to press the button and wait the longest wait for it to start. i wondered if it had anything to do with you- this feeling- or was it just me. but this feeling, that i could not put a finger too it- it just bothered- it felt so so wierd. it really was wierd.

i wanted and felt like i needed to talk to him. the more i thought about it the more i missed him so i tried calling- though i know that he must have set off for fieldcamp already. voicemail service hence, i was about to send my starhub message- thinking about what i wanted to say,

my hp rang- thinking it was a friend, i wasn't looking forward to it- esp wen you're pmsy right. then i saw the words "baby" flashing on my hp screen. that made my heart skip a beat. i swear this is one time i remember clearly ever feeling this way- no matter how cliche or cheesy this sounds- it did, it happened to me

it was impossible- i thought you were gone and you never call during this time- i thought i was imagining it but i quickly called back which followed a flood of " i miss yous"-

and then it hit me, it dawned on me -love-
pining hurts and not being able to do anything about it leaves you in desperation.
the "i really love you"s and the "i miss you"s- always makes everything better

at that point of time -to be able to listen to his voice, knowing that during that shortest period of time, both share the most intense and intimate feeling of being together- my strongest feelings of love towards him and the strongest feelings of aching pain took over me that it just simply occured- the answer to my own question. i found it in just 5 minutes of conversation today -i am amazed. i am, at the wonders of the heart and our left ventricles.

it might be a coincidence, or pure chance today- but i would like to attribute it to love.

of course the worst moment always has to come-the sound of the click and the silence- the sudden emptiness which runs through your whole being and only crying would bring any relief- and then you decide for once in your whole time being 'in love' that this is one time you really should blog about.

i miss you. i really do-

hollywood

2006-02-12T20:52:00.000Z

ralph fiennes is hot hot hot.

omg he's so i dunno what to say- manly? He's got such beautiful eyes!

haha i just watched maid in manhatten and i remembered him from the constant gardener (highly highly recommended)

j lo is even hotter like i even had to say it.. sigh

anyway i loved the constant gardener and wanted to blog abt it but got too lazy until now haha. its really a good movie- a different take on love, world issues and politics whatever. catch it for urself. the director brings u through the shots- hes really good! o man the emotions u feel from the directors hardwork- editing the scenes whatever u technically call it. the violence speaks by itself and there's not a single shot of gore. loved it. watch it!

rachel weisz is sexy too. hmm hmm. love these pretty woman with curves love em!

haha ok enjoy my recommendation! the constant gardener! haha muackks!

2006-02-08T16:34:00.000Z

sorry for the lack of posts in this blog- if u even come by anymore

haha ive been too busy/ lazy whichever u wld like to view it.

exams are long over but the concrete fear of getting failed grades has made me hardworking (believe it or not)- ive been reading on my lectures! whoot! -haha

hopefully i can get a good degree..

ok wats been up besides studying- there's gym, morning runs, diet and detox :)

ive been realtively healthy over here on this side of the globe than there- i wonder why

also theres the chit-chatting among beloved friends that is time-consuming but so precious- haha the wonders of the female mouth/lips

and there's the occasional dinner togethers that has been frequent this past week- its so nice to cook/eat/wash up w everyone else.. just like home :)

and later theres the "ma la" steamboat dinner we're having at fang lin's place- be prepared for burning lips, tears n a numb tongue.

hmm besides that there's the msn chats to friends n family back home..

i like life here-

simple n fulfilling

shiok ah!

HAPPY HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR FOLKS

2006-01-27T21:09:00.000Z

its the year of the dog *woof*woof* haha

im gone bonkers but yeah may this year be better yeah!

updates???

2006-01-17T10:39:00.000Z

i know its been ages since i last updated haha

well, there's one during the weekend. On sat we went with the out of door's society to cheddar groves. it was quite a thing for me- getting into the woods with the mud n slime n thorns n everything bad. i had some really bad blisters and an almost broken back. but nonetheless, despite the hardship-haha- the sight was ever so worthwhile. i'll put em pictures up wen i feel like it- or am free- whichever comes first haha.

and for the latest latest update its that i have a report dued tomorrow and 5 exams next week.

so till there are better, more exciting updates- tata

its good to have everybody back

2006-01-10T21:00:00.000Z

p.s. does anyone know wats wrong with my tag board?? its pissing me of!!!!

back to school

2006-01-09T18:22:00.001Z

im sorry for the lack of posts guys. after china its been a busy one week before coming back.

its good to be back. but working (school) is never that great, for me at least.

i had an eventful xmas this year-

different friends are going through different phases in their lives. some are experiencing new and exciting phases in their lives, some are living the same old and some are trying hard to breath. everyone is special to me. all you good friends. so no matter what ure going through i share it with you. if its happiness you've found, i rejoice and celebrate with you. if its happiness you've lost, i cry n pain with you. if it's the same old shit, ill trudge the process with u.

lovers are important n close to heart, but so are friends. i would never want to lose either cos i won be able to survive without either. so call me selfish but i wan u all.

as for me
i think
i might have found
my happiness
yet
there is always pain,
so we'll have to
wait and see
if we can withstand
the test of
time and personality.

gon to china!

2005-12-19T23:50:00.000Z

last thoughts on the end of term

2005-12-07T19:06:00.000Z

for many reasons this flight back is very unexcited about-

this term has been the best term ive ever had. thanks mainly to my uber cool frens in exeter.

flatmates- kat, devi, sheebs, cam, kyra n sophie.
kyra's leaving for good back to colorado..im missing her already:( hopefully the winter hat n scarf n studded belt will always remind her of her ever lovely JO flatmates :)
-the parties we've had created in the small kitchen haha n ooh i miss the tv room talks.. and dinner together nicee...

lovely hk frens- sarah n lianne
they stay the same. as loving and as funky as ever.. i like..!
haha berlin n pub nights n stories of boys they never fail!

close to heart SG frens- liling n eunice
always know i can count on them :)
liling w her thinking brain n ever noticing 'qi'
eunice w her small-ness and shows :)

new frens- louise, lilia, noe n johnny
glad to have known them. life is just a little more interesting and exciting!
think grass/drinks, bleaurgh/interviews, spicy/sweet n tickles/laughs respectively :)

haha these people made my term fanta fantastic!

of cos of cos i never forget my great great frens from home:

wai- what wld i do without u? like i said dun ever die before i do

angie- ever sweet n there to listen to my every whine of the day and im always updated! thanks- hows aniki??

and everyone else who lets me know im missed n thought of all the time..thanks.

some things are meant to be experienced.
some things are such a part of life.
u laugh n u cry. u love n u hate.
some things will only become memory and thats all that u need to keep life interesting and exciting.

like
i will never be able

to relive

my first term 2005
nor my secondary 4 years in stc.
nor anything that was ever enjoyable in the past.

thats wat makes it so precious and so pure. its in memory n pictures. we always only have pretty smiling loving pictures. ill remember u by that, ill let it be a sweet memory like i said it would always be.

love, jan en route home

2005-11-30T13:47:00.000Z

in the midst of doing my 2000 word essay due in 2 hours i wanted to blog about something:

the flower plant on my window sill is dying. slowly but surely. it started wilting sometime ago but i kept watering it hoping that it would be revived. i even got someone to water it for me when i was in berlin. but its still wilting and there are no signs of life from it. i watered it yesterday and maybe today.

but no sign.

so today i didnt water it.

ok back to my fucking fucked up essay.im so fucked.

backk! :)

2005-11-29T13:26:00.000Z

blogthings

2005-11-15T13:30:00.000Z

there have been many things that i wanted to blog abt. but due to the lack of access to the net i forget wat they r. and by the time im at school w access to it i blog abt things that ive done. quickly n briefly cos its jus not as shiok. anyway ive officially not had my comp for 2 weeks n im pretty used to it now. tho i hope to get it back by tonight so that i can start writing my bloody journal review.

wheehee jus talked to my mummy. its so nice for them to call me cos they hardly do tho we dun ever have much to talk abt anyway but i love her. hehe we're going to bangkok!! maybe jus for 2 days 1 night tho cos i jus gotta use my friggin free ticket. so maybe, massage, shopping and nail art!!! haha but nails r all shortish now. o well o well.

that was wen the party really began man. also cos i had some alcohol jus 2 glass of red wine n white wine+lemonade (sheebs taught me that it was really refreshing n nice!! higly recommended- esp if ure drinking housepour wine at a uni club where its usually cheap n of poor quality aka the red wine i had) haha anyway u should see my girls shake their arses n booty to the music!! it was really cool cos they had international music n not r n b. it was a mix of english, arabic n bhangra music! hahaha oomg u know wai min they played our belly dancing song!! the one w "habibi habibi"!! haha u remmeber?? so damn cool man i was so excited! hahahha!! belly danicng then did come into great use :) forgot to bring my damned camera but if i get pics fm nana then maybe i can post it up. but of cos u know the situation of my comp now. hopefully itll b fixed by tmr :)

verbalized realization

2005-11-10T13:06:00.000Z

i was blog surfing n came upon lynno's blog. she had this post dated today and i thought it must express exactly the thoughts of someone i love..

(italics not included)
"After talking to her, I've been made aware that I am still very angry.
I am fed up that she can have such complete disregard for other people to vent the way she feels. By all means go ahead. I won't stop your freedom of speech and freedom of thought but do not think that there won't be consequences.
Not all words are meant to be spoken, just as not all thoughts are meant to be voiced. And we, should not take others for granted and as ground to trample over whenever pissed.

Everyone has feelings and nobody deserves to be hurt the way you do to others with your words.

For me, I have mind enough to pull away after that one outburst.
It's always good to watch your thoughts because instances like that, may prove irrevocable.
All it took was one button, and you found it, and you pushed it."

i'm sorry.

rachel rachel rachel

2005-08-20T13:50:00.000+01:00

haha today aka pig out day with audrey and fren razif was slack BUT the thing i wanna talk about was the movie we watched- wedding crashers! it featured my adoring owen wilson and this other person that was dead ringer for my ex- hall-floormate! i tell u she looked exactly like her and during the whole movie i kept looking at all aspects of her face and body n her hair and her moles!! haha and despite all odds and impossibility i concluded it was her. and i was actually rather pissed that that bitch (pardon my language- she used to make so much noise on our floor in the middle of the night that kat n i hated them) could kiss owen ! butbutbut upon further investigation a few min ago i found out i was wrong hahahhaha. but i tell u look exactly like her man!!!!!!!!! cannot be wrong one!!! some more her real name is rachel same as the actress's real name! but im glad she didnt get to kiss owen. haha

ok that aside, today : i had a great time with drey n fren razif and rita (even for a brief 10 min?) haha pig out galore man despite this being a supposed exercise day haha! wahaha drey already ont he verge of killing me man!!

thur: meeting up with lynno amigo and drey after i guess quite a while was sweet too. we always seem to get ourselves talking about deeper stuff which is always cool eh. just hanging and chilling and exchanging "news" hahahhahaha shiok!

wed: my first clubbing experience with waimin since i was back!!! not only did we club at zouk but before that we hit 3 pubs at mohammed sultan!! wahaha we are actually cheapos actually. as it was ladies night and zouk only gives free entry and not free drinks we pub hopped at ms in order to get our freebies! it was damn fun and we had quite a few shots, a beer and some mixes! in a pretty short time but we didnt get drunk or anything haha despite our bad past experiences tog!

well i felt it was a really fun night dancing and getting high at zouk on cheese music and having a wierdo follow us ard in the beginning for a bit (a damn wierdo i tell u, wai will vouch for it) haha i thot it was exciting on hindsight haha. oh and we stole 2 more tequila shots! haha from the bar oh i love it. lychee martini that we paid for. bar top dancing by some hothothot girls at cu. old bar? cheeky monkeys! haha and seeing people from ex- schools. interesting. we were so tired after that esp me my legs were killing me! and we wrapped up with prata near her hse and a little chat at her swimmin pool till she started mumbling irrational things. hahah but our conclusion ultimately was clubbing 's not all biggy after all. u know wat i mean? :)

im going shopping!

2005-08-16T13:45:00.000+01:00

haha not that i would be buying anything. rather ill be accompanying mag in her shopping for dance costumes? i dunno o well the thing is im going to gallavant (how do u spell that?) in town! its been such a long long time since ive been to town and just relax!!! haha im deprived im always there to accomplish certain chores or sth well today ill have abt 4 hours! haha and im leaving work early! wheet! i dun care i have nothing to do anyway. wat does janice do wen she goes to work anyway

1. write the time i come in on my log sheet -that i created myself out of boredom

2. then i start replying the smses that i have missed last night or message those i need to

3. take out my magazine and start reading or a book if i rem to bring (which i haven at all) or go downstairs to buy one

4. wen i have nothing to read i either start doodling or i write slow mails. if the typewritter is not in use i use that

5. i try to while my time away. if i get to use the comp (wen dad/mom is not ard- only their comp has available net- but i try not to use it still as it looks wierd for me to be sitting in their room typing away. so unless its necessary n im absolutely dying of boredom!)

6. and wen i rem and feel like it i do some sit ups and stretching in the meeting room where no one can really see me.

haha poor poor janice. mental health institute please please save me from my misery.

oops someone just walked in thinking i was dad. ok i think i better go off soon.

im so bored

2005-08-15T16:55:00.000+01:00

well wats new? anyway working here (at moms office) is really good if u wanna get brain damage from doing nothing and always trying to find something to do. so far i haven been able to use the comp much but well this is my rare chance. and wat did she do? i looked up the mental health institute here aka woodbridge (considering our population singapore only has one-bleah i know we are so underrated-pschologists) haha anyway so ive written my resume and cover letter to be sent of hopefully today.

im so bored i really want that internship/ work experience whatever. ive been to work like abt 5 days now with nothing to do. if i dun ask them for work they dun give me so i dun care im not gonna ask i haven asked. waha id rather do ntohing. maybe just dwell on my boredom and write slow mails to friends. so far wai has received one n kat shld get 2 (tho 1 is still waiting to be sent). oh did i tell u i wan to get out of this so much that id work for free at the mental health. at least thats wat i told them. i just really want it! i want out.

u might ask why cant i just not come to work. well i owe my mom 1000 from an advance she gave me before thailand. well i just wanna repay it kinda thing i wanna be the righteous daughter who returns what she borrows, not that i had asked for the 1000. mom just passed it to me saying its my pay advance so not like i will care much but well. so ive got abt 20 more hours which shld be another 3 days. but then i cant jus quit like that! i need to find an excuse. like another job. another more interesting more important job that sitting ard with nothing to do. i guess working at moms office is not the fun responsible tiring job that i thought it would be. and y? not cos i dun wanna learn. no its cos those old aunties dun wanna give me anything to do. and if its so much of a chore to try and find me something to do then forget it im not gonna hanker after u for more work to give me.

hmph. i want out. please accept my application woodbridge.

happy birthday to you
