WAKE ME UP WHEN SEPTEMBER ENDS...
It's the last day of September and also the last day of fasting which ended hours ago. Tomorrow is Hari Raya and oh boy, I can't believe that September just flies like that. It's so fast! Oh well, should I be excited or neutral? I don't go visiting on the first day. Where is there to go? I don't have any grandparents left and my auntie lives in Malaysia, and my uncle would go to his wife relatives house.
Oh well... Tomorrow is 1st of October. Meaning to say, it's just a matter of time - To be specific FOUR MORE DAYS to "+1". Boohoo! Growing older each year and things happen so fast. Sometimes I wish I could just turn the clocks back and freeze it. Aww... Good all memories, good all days. (Forget the sour ones!)
Hmm? Finally trimmed my hair (as usual, White Sands - Jean Yip). Well? $28 - Nothing much I would say but it does feels lighter and my fringe is shorter now. I wanted the same length but I told the hairdresser (Danny; my mum somewhat knows him) that I don't mind cutting one inch shorter. Oh well, it looks like my picture months ago when I trimmed my hair. I'm beginning to like myself with straight hair.
Straight as in real straight (they helped me straighten my hair using straightening iron). HAHA. My natural hair is a bit wavy. I actually have this VS Sassoon 9-in-1 styler and I don't use the curling tongs or whatever you call that. I mostly use the straightener but as you know, in the morning it can be time consuming and all. I'm not one who would spend a lot of time with my hair.
Hmm? OK, there are some exceptions. For certain ocassions I would spend a bit more time with my hair to style. Hmm? There were a few times whereby my hair seems almost totally straight and that's with the help of my mother. Yes, I asked her to help me with it. It's easier and better that way. *grins*
Ok, here's a picture of what my VS Sassoon styler look like. (Those pictures are for illustration, got it from the net but that's what I have. Just that I threw the box away already.)
.jpg)

Interesting eh? Then again, I don't have much time. Boohoo! Even if I have the time, I'm not really that good. Furthermore, I don't like to spend too much time BUT there are some exceptions like I mentioned earlier on. *grins* Hmm? A good hairdryer can do wonders to your hair too.
If I'm not wrong, I got that for less than $50 at Watson (Tampines Mall). Oh well, speaking of hair, it makes me think of the hair products that I have. I have Lucido L Styling Jelly Straight, Loreal Studio Hot Straight - Straightening Cream, Lucido Hair Wax (curls) and Sebastian Laminates Detangling Milk.
You see, with all those I'm like so lazy. Should I be thankful or what? It's like I could use those to good use and do something about my hair but... Oh my. I'm lazy. Hmm? Maybe it's time I should try and start using it? If not, it'll just be a waste of money? Boohoo!
When I see those products outside, it's like I want to buy them and when I owned them, I seldom use them. Grr! Bad habit! Bad habit!!
Hmm... Ok, before I go, I mentioned in my previous entry that I'll post somemore pictures that caught my eye. I'm a person who keep my words. However, this time it's skirts! Skirts that I fancy.

A-Line Skirts


Box Pleated Skirts

I like the box pleated ones. I think they're really nice. I have a few of those type. *grins*
Alright, cheers~ Till next time then.
Peace out~ ♥ × ♥ × ♥

FORMULA ONE FIRST NIGHT RACE WAS HELD IN SINGAPORE YESTERDAY. Boy, I just can't believe it. What's your take on it? Fantastic event or what?
Ok, before I talk more about the Grand Prix... As I'm typing this, it's going to be 30th of September 2008 soon. HOWEVER, at this moment it's still 29th September and therefore, I would like to wish...



Those pictures were taken in January [2008].

That's in February of this year.
HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY! - Spankings for you? Oops. May you have lots of children in the future! HAHA. Ok, may your FANTASY and WISHES all come true~ (:
(To Fiqah, if you're reading this: See, I put nice pictures~ Didn't embarrass you. Hmm... May I know who's the photographer? Ahem... *grins*)
Ok, back to the Night Race. Hmm... Bad luck for team Ferrari. Oh dear... Felipe Massa from first to last and Kimi RAIKKONEN got into an accident. Boohoo!
Anyway, here are the winners for the race:

1ST: DO YOU REMEMBER ME? Fernando Alonso who drives for team Renault - 2-time champion, last year he finished 3rd.

2nd: Nico Rosberg - Who drives for team Williams-Toyota.

And... 3rd: LEWIS HAMILTON who drives for team Mclaren.
Hmm? I think the night race street circuit is a tricky one. The drivers complaint that it's bumpy.
Oh well, for more information you can read more about it. 2008 Singapore Grand Prix
Hmm? Ok, I'm no FORMULA ONE fan but to have a night race here in Singapore sort of makes me want to watch. Hmm? Where can I get Formula One merchandise? I feel like getting my hands on it. Hmm? I guess I'll save up then next year try to get my hands on at least one Ferrari and one Mclaren merchandise. *grins*
Why buy one each? Well? Ferrari's for Kimi Raikkonen and Mclaren's for... Lewis Hamilton. Hmm? I saw something that I like on his website. See this. I may want to get that. Well? Let's see how but that's my goal for next year. Got to get my hands on at least one Formula One (F1) merchadise.
Gosh. I hope I won't get too addicted! *cross my fingers*
Anyway, here's something before I go. Actually there's more but I'll just post these for now. Will post somemore in the next entry.

NEWSBOY HATS! Which one do you like?

Polo Tee~ Ahhhhh... That's a nice one. I have a few polo tees. If I'm lazy to dress up, I'll just put on a polo tee and pants or shorts.

I like this pullover.

Polo Tee~ Nice huh?

Black Polo Tee~

I don't really like gold jewellery except that Hari Raya my mother would ask me to wear and stuff like that but... I can consider wearing a gold ring anytime because I think it's nice. I like the gold ring that my mother bought for me. I actually chose the pattern. It's really nice, don't think negative about it. It's actually something sweet. (Oh, not refering to the picture but the one in the picture is nice)

This silver ring is sweet. Love it.

Star shaped diamond pendant. I like this. Cost about $1000 plus if not wrong. Can't remember the exact price.
The next one... Hmm? I think Fiqah would go crazy.

HELLO KITTY DIAMOND RING - Guess how much? Whooping $4000 plus!
Ok, that's all for the pictures today. Hmm? You know, I feel like a panda. Since the first day of fasting till now, I've been sleeping late and oh boy, that's bad for health. Boohoo! Ok, I think I should try and learn to sleep earlier. It's really getting out of hands. Hur hur hur!
Hmm? I guess I'm going to trim my hair tomorrow. I mean - later on. Since it past midnight already. Hmm? 30th Septemeber? Oh... It's that devil's birthday. Jio Satan. Oops. HAHA. Ok, Happy Birthday to that devil (Razin). *Oops*
As for now,
Peace out~ (^.^)V ♥ ♠ ♥ ♠ ♥

My THIRD entry for the month of September.
My last entry was on the 16th of September.
Hmm... Actually, I've been wanting to blog these days but whenever I have some free time to do so, I'll either be playing game (My current obsession: FIFA ONLINE 2) or I actually log in to blog but whenever I'm at this page to type, my mind would either go blank or I just feel tired to do so. Well? You could also look at it as simply lazy.
Oh well, let me recall what I did for the past week.
Ok, let me just briefly describe about my week. (NOTE: LONG ENTRY with pictures)
19th September
Last day of school for the term. Hmm? Have you ever feel this way before? I mean, wanting to say something to a certain person but you just don't have the courage to do so? Oh well... Went to school then came home at about 2pm. Took a shower and went out with my mother to Geylang Serai. Oh yes, the bazaar there - Oh my. Just look at the food. Yummy!
I actually regretted my actions on that day. I was actually angry because this trolley bag (or whatever you call that), the wheels broke and it's a hot day and I was mad at it and also at my mum because she kept dragging it even after I told her about it.
I just decided to carry it then. Even though I was angry, I was willing to carry it because I don't want my mother to carry such heavy stuff. That's not all, as you know I was still angry then when I met this lady who asked me to buy tissue papers I simply refused to. She kept insisting but I didn't want to.
I then said to her "I HAVE ALREADY" in mandarin. That's where I start to reflect after that because I think I was a bit harsh with those words. As you know, it's good to do good deeds during the month of Ramadan. The fasting month is more like a holy month but with that, oh god... When I calmed down, I was actually feeling bad.
I told my mother about it and apologised to her about my reaction earlier on but I sort of still feel bad about that lady. Then again, I tell myself... I may have made a mistake and yes, I admit that it was my mistake but that doesn't mean you only do good deeds during this month. I feel that any day and anytime you can do good deeds. With that, I told myself and I said in my heart - "Oh god, please forgive me. I know I made a mistake but I hope you would forgive me."
I simply feel bad. I actually don't have the intention to hurt anyone but I guess my emotions get the better of me. One word: SORRY.
20th September
Simply stayed home. Was really tired. CHELSEA 1 - MANCHESTER UNITED 1. Thanks to Salomon Kalou to equalise for CHELSEA on the 80th minute. 85 games unbeaten in the league for FOUR AND A HALF YEARS. Stamford Bridge equals to: Fortress bridge. It seems like more and more teams are motivated coming to Stamford Bridge trying to break the record.
21st September
Went out with my mother to Courts Megastore - The one at Tampines. Not far from my place too. It's like few stops away from my place. Break fast at Box Bistro. (See pictures)
.jpg)



FISH & CHIPS - $5.30, not that bad. (:
22nd September
Well? Didn't go anywhere. I stayed at home. Played: FIFA ONLINE 2! Yeah baby, yeah!~
23rd September
Tuesday - Went to celebrate Hafiz Y's birthday at Vivo. Well? It's actually a so called "surprise (mini) party" for him. His girlfriend's idea (Munirah) to have this actually. Ain't that sweet?
Anyway, I WAS LATE. HAHA. Sorry but I can't help it. Oops.
Actually, I was about to leave at about 4pm but who knows I would leave later than 4pm? I was actually supposed to return my library books. Darn. As I was about to leave only then I remember and that's why I was being held back for a while as I have to find my magazine. HAHA.
Was looking for it as I placed it somewhere. Oh dear... So I left at about 4.15pm and you know, you have to wait for bus and all. Ok,so I was about half an hour late.
Then again, that doesn't mean that I AM ALWAYS LATE. I'm early at times, ok? *grins*
At about 6.30pm, we went to buy food for break fast. Took away our food as we were having this thing at the rooftop. Oh boy, guess who I met when I was at Banquet?
I MET my Secondary school best friend - Xiaoqiang (Angie). HAHA. You know what? The funniest thing was that, she was actually the one standing in front of me when I was queuing up to buy food. I didn't realise that it was her. She was with her friend. In fact, BOTH of us didn't realise. It was only when I stepped back and when I looked up (Well? She's taller than me. She's about 1.7m tall) only then I realised it was her!
Tapped her left shoulder and she turned. Boy, you should see her expression. HAHA. She was surprised. Well? We chatted and of course, those good old days came to our mind. I miss those days. They were so fun and all. We went through the thick and thin and I really miss those days.
Of course we teased each other (as usual). She calling me an ant, me calling her a cockroach. HAHA.
Anyway, it was a fun day I would say. It was a wonderful night and I was teasing Shu Min. I love the night and it was a good night for couples actually. Very romantic as it's quiet and the view was fantastic. Great atmosphere. Hmm? Could do with some nice jazz music. Ahhhhh... Wouldn't that be marvellous?
Oh well... Hmm? Reached home at about 10.30pm. Oh god, I was tired but not too tired as I felt that I still had some energy. Oh, guess what time I slept? 6AM! Interesting eh? (See pictures; Enjoy)





BIRTHDAY BOY - HAFIZ



Psst! Let me tell you something, Fiqah went crazy over the bananas! It's chocolate banana. Boohoo! I don't like banana.

Hafiz and Munirah
.jpg)
Beautiful night, don't you think so?
24th September
Benjamin's BIRTHDAY. He turned 18 yesterday. I stayed at home. Played FIFA ONLINE 2 for a while. I woke up at 3.30pm if I remember correctly.
PORTSMOUTH 0 - CHELSEA 4: The Carling Cup result. (: I'm pleased with my team. Slept at 6AM. Oh boy, it's becoming a habit these days. It's bad! It's bad! Boohoo! (Some random picture that was taken last night)

25th September - TODAY
Woke up at noon. Went out with my mother to Geylang. Look at the bazaar, my my my... All kinds of food. Dengdeng! Yes, barbeque meat. Yum yum! My favourite. You know, everytime I think of dengdeng, it reminds of Azhar. HAHAHA. Oops. He's a huge dengdeng fan. *grins*
My mother bought a lot of food today. Hmm... I still have my Nasi Briyani, Ayam Percik and burger. You know what? I'm going to eat it soon. HEH HEH! Just now for break fast I ate Indian rojak and I was full. Oh, ate dengdeng after that. It's simply delicious. Want some barbeque meat? HEH HEH~
Well? That sums up my week. Well? Up to today that is. Hmm, Formula 1 FIRST NIGHT RACE is few days away and I really can't believe it's in Singapore! Aww... Go Kimi! I think Kimi Raikkonen is charming. *grins* Then again, Lewis Hamilton seems humble and I am aware of the threat.

KIMI!

Gimme gimme - Kimi Kimi!

KIMI RAIKKONEN!

Iceman!

Formula One (F1) drivers - [from left to right: Kimi (Ferrari), Felipe (Ferrari), Lewis (Mclaren)]
Oh well... MAY THE BEST DRIVER WIN THIS WEEKEND. Alright, I better be going. ("disco disco, good good... disco disco, good good")
Peace out~ ♥ (9 more days and counting *grins*) 04.10.08

MY SECOND ENTRY FOR THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER
I've been wanting to blog since few days ago. However, I don't really have the time to do so,even when I had some, I was kind of lazy to log in and blog. Boohoo?
Anyway, it's the last week of school. Next week will be the start of my holidays. Is that a good thing or what? I think it's how you look at it. Good thing is that I can wake up late and sleep late, the bad thing is that I have to finish my FINAL YEAR PROJECT (FYP).
Ok, it's "tough". Well? If you look at it that way but hey, staying on the positive side, just look at it this way... If you give it your all for now, you would get your rewards later on and that is to get a good grade. Yes, I'm dying to get a good grade but to be honest, I'm afraid. I don't feel confident now.
FEARS eh? What can you expect? HUMANS - WE all have emotions, feelings and thoughts. With those, life would be plain DULL.
Then again, it can be bad because sometimes your emotions may get a bit out of hand. (If you know what I mean)
What is life without all those? I can't imagine us humans don't have those (emotions, feelings and thoughts - blah blah). I guess we would be labelled as a "robot" then. Very boring, eh? I guess that's the reason why god made us the way we are.
I am no angel. I make mistakes, sin, blah blah but I always want to be a good person. I always want to become a better person. Well? With emotions, feelings and thoughts, there's definitely an obstacle in front of us. Why is that so? Simple, as a human being we all think differently, we react differently and we see things differently.
Therefore, there would be the "EVIL" = crazy for power and whatever he's able get, the "QUIET" = people who don't talk much [I didn't mean mute, don't get me wrong], the "HYPOCRITE" = should I say two-face freak?, the "SMILING TIGER" = Smiles everytime, acts innocent but never shows "its" true colours - Dangerous person, and the list goes on.
Well, let's just say that there all sorts of people and I guess sometimes god wants me to meet such people so that I could have some experience. Maybe with that, I could relate that and use it to guide my friend. Guide as in advice and giving my point of view regarding a situation and stuff like that.
Alright, moving on now.
CINTA FITRI - Indonesian sinetron (Indonesian drama), a drama that I at times do watch (my mother loves the drama). It's on Sensasi (Starhub Cable TV; Channel 40), every night at 8pm. I think Mike Lewis is charming. *grins* In that drama, he acted as "Edo".
EDO, is a very arrogant (business) man. He always have this thinking of "MONEY CAN BUY EVERYTHING". Well? He's wrong. Money is an advantage but you can't buy everything in this world.
Farrel's (Edo's business rival) fiancee works at Edo's company. However, Edo doesn't know about it. He's beginning to fall for Fitri now. THOUGH HE KEEPS DENYING AND SAY IT'S IMPOSSIBLE blah blah... But hey, he keeps thinking about her. However, this lady (Fida; did I spell it wrong?) working for Edo likes Edo.
Well? I really envy Fitri. She's really patient. Not only that, she's also kind-hearted and always willing to help others. She has matured. She used to be naive but now, she's a confident person. Way to go! YOU GO GIRL!
Well? You would have to watch to be able to know what I'm talking about. Darn. I'm just into Indonesian drama(s). I'm actually thinking if I should catch some Indonesian dramas during the holidays. Oh well, let's see how.
OK, I'm going to post pictures now. Furthermore, I'm tired and oh... It's CHELSEA vs Bordeaux later on tonight or should I say in the wee hours? 2.45AM kick off on ESPN. Come on you BLUES!




Alternative wrapping paper for Naqiah and Fiqah's gift. Save money on wrapping paper, eh? Hey, I really ran out of wrapping paper and I didn't know until I wanted to wrap! Oh well, save the environment.

[Waterfest]

[Waterfest]





DONUTS! [Too bad, couldn't take the others as I was too eager to eat it to the extend I forgot to take a picture of it *Oops!*]

GUESS HOW MUCH?

Body Polish (Strawberry) - The Body Shop; Now selling at $12.90, usual price: $18.90. I like the smell.

Ahh! Love their pies, love their brownies.

And now, back to the meal that I asked you to guess. ...SEE THAT? THAT'S THE PRICE FOR MY MEAL - $8.30!!! SO EXPENSIVE! [WHERE? As stated on the receipt: Century Square, Level 4; The one that's beside the Chicken Rice store, 2 stores away from the Western store if not wrong)
Oh god. I, myself go a shock too. Not only that, the food isn't up to par. God, I paid $8.30 for a "sub-standard" meal. Well? I actually wanted to order Chicken Chop from the Western store (which I always do) but oh god, the queue was long!
I wasn't pleased about it. Still am not pleased with it. I told my dad about it and he's like, next time don't eat from that store then. My mother agreed. I was with my mother when she was ordering her food and my mother's meal cost $5. On the menu itself, it states $4.80. Oh god, what is this?
I feel like they OVERCHARGED ME. It's not as if it's a restuarant or something. Whatever it is, I will not go back to that store EVER AGAIN! Not only that, the person who served me he's like "want, don't want" that kind. Not willing to serve? Or probably, selective and bias? Hmm? Perhaps both?
I don't like that kind of service. I expect good service whenever I order and if the person is rude to me, I will not go back to the place again. I mean who likes it? Then again, to be fair... Some customers act like they're king. I think in this situation, both have to respect each other. I MEAN, COME ON! We're humans right??
I simply can't stand people who treat people differently just because of their "status" or whatever you want to call it. I'm against that kind of people. I'm also against people who judge people by their skin colour. Gosh, how can you be racist?
Frankly, I get pissed when people do that because I'm half Chinese (father) and a mixture of Peranakan, Malay and Indonesian (mother).
So what's wrong? Can't bear to see inter-racial? It's SO wrong to discriminate people by their [skin] colour or race. I feel that everyone is equal. It's just colour but we're all humans! Not as if we're aliens or something right?? Sheesh.

The guy who acted as "EDO" the one that I mentioned earlier on. MIKE LEWIS - Father's a Canadian, Mother's a Indonesian Chinese. Charming guy.



He looks more Chinese in this picture (Reminds you of a taiwanese artiste or something?)

LAST, but not least... Ahhhh... MAX LOONG! Father - Malaysian Chinese, Mother - Swiss. He acted in this show, sorry I can't remember the title of the show on Channel 5 but he style his hair differently and wears spectacles which makes him look geeky but still, I fancy him. *grins*
Hmm? Oh, actually there's one more favourite... JULIAN HEE! HAHA. Ok, enough of it. (:
Well? You can fancy (eye if you put it that way) but at the end of the day, I think the person's personality counts even more than the appearance (though it might be an advantage). Alright, I'm tired. Will update when I have the time. I'm off now!
Peace out~
