<body> Underneath The Smile, The Pain Resides

THE GIRL

Photobucket Arrived a gemini with a great deal of divided personalities. For one thing, I can laugh at one moment and be upset the next. But Im not the hardest person to get along with, certainly. I came to be me on 10th June 1991. Spent the last nighteen years of my life in attempts to piece myself together, and is still desperately trying. Family and friends are my life. At least that's the way it is till a boyfriend comes along XD Anyway, icecream's my addiction, my medicine, my must-have. Now you know how to make me happy. I dont need expensive gifts I just want a true heart. I'm majorly affected by the people around me. Can't say if it's a blessing or a curse, 'cause the little things people do can either make my day or simply make it worse. Just give me a smile, and I'll return one to you^^

    Ohh it feels good to be spazzing again!^^
    Been ages since I last did so due to time constraints and my overwhelming workload.
    There's still work to be done tonight after I've given tuition:\
    Anyways,
    the weather's so cold today!
    Gengen was saying "The sky's the limit, and now the sky's testing our limits.".
    I absolutely agree.
    It's been raining non-stop since Saturday!
    Although I love the weather but somehow it's getting alittle too much,
    especially when people like us need to rush to school/to work in the early morning.
    The rain didn't help at all:\
    You cannot imagine how haggard I was this morning >.<
    I guess most of us were very much in distraught,
    unless you could teleport from home,
    without having to beat the horrible morning traffic,
    fight the drastic rain,
    and battle the human crowd.
    I hope I'll never have to go through that again >.<

    Alrighty,
    shall end here for now,
    haven't got much time to post anything longer.
    Perhaps tonight,
    after I've completed my PBL research(:
    Till then,
    take care people,
    and don't catch a cold!^^

    I think many things have changed and I'm really quite disappointed with you,
    really disappointed.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY KJJ^^
    You, who made this day special to so many people^^

    Who would have thought that this baby here...
    Photobucket

    would one day become this charming young man^^
    Photobucket
    Happy Birthday Jaebaby!
    I love you mannn,
    no matter if you're 26 or 62 hahaha! :D

    Today,
    he's my protective charm against all negative thoughts and feelings kekeke XDD

    I've just wasted another evening slacking on the sofa.
    Didn't feel like doing anything since whatever I've done hasn't been working out right.
    For instance I just spoiled my shoe and tore my file today,
    which made me feel extremely upset.
    The shoe was fine but the file...
    This is already my second file and I don't wish to spend on another one...
    But...
    I feel so clumsy and stupid now.
    Why can't I do anything right...
    It's such a lousy feeling.
    And I can't seem to get my mood on anything.
    I'm really tired,
    this is just not my day.
    I shall turn in early.
    Haiz
    tonight the world is an ugly, ugly place.
    I don't wish to speak to anyone till tomorrow comes.

    Suddenly, I realize people aren't as true as they make themselves out to be.
    Suddenly, I realize all that I've been hoping for had merely been my own wishful thinking.
    Suddenly, I realize everything I haven't been able to see for so long- hidden from the truth, deceived.
    Have you ever been hurt so bad you thought it'd never heal,
    so bad you thought you'd die from relieving those memories?
    Because of people like you,
    we can never be true to each other.
    Because of people like you,
    I've got to set up protective barriers.
    Because of people like you,
    my heart can no longer place trust in another.

    I've always thought if I had the will and the support,
    nothing can bring me down.
    And even if it does,
    I will not be beaten,
    because failure does not eliminate hope,
    and I've always been hopeful.
    But now I see that there's just too much beyond my control,
    beyond my willpower alone.
    The harder I fight,
    the stronger it gets back at me,
    and the outcome's just so painful I don't think I'll want to try again.
    Because in the end,
    I'll just be slapping myself back in the face again.
    I don't know how to go about doing this,
    this thing called life;
    I really don't know.

    I'm only human,
    don't expect me to be more than that.
    Because meeting to expectations has never felt more exhausting.

    What a lazy, lazy Sunday...
    Completed only 2/5 of my agenda for today,
    which includes:
    1. Print notes (Tick)
    2. Pack bag (Tick)
    3. Write reflective journal
    4. Give tuition
    5. Study endocrine system

    I have a feeling I won't be able to complete number 5 today...
    Can't believe my weekends just pass by like this T.T

    WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY AND ALL BECAUSE...
    1. I got my organizer(:
    2. Cooked dinner along with the rest of my family(:
    3. Went to get New Year decorations with my mum and dad(:
    but most importantly,
    it's a day spent with my lovely family^^

    And I did cooking today!^^
    See what we had for dinner today!
    Photobucket
    Tadaa!

    Photobucket
    The salad Alicia learnt from her Home Economics lessson.

    Photobucket
    Fries!!!^^

    Photobucket
    The awesome chicken my dad made!^^

    Photobucket
    Yay! I love my familyyy^^

    -With All My Heart, Alina ;



    Ohh yeahh mannn!
    The weekends are here again^^
    Thankfully there isn't much to do this week and I can finally set time aside for my endocrine system.
    Besides, I doubt I'll be going out this weekend either.
    All the more time for work.
    Awesome :D
    I need to study.

    Anyways it's been a really long yet satisfying day for me today(:
    Woke up at 7.30 this morning feeling extremely sleep deprived 'cause by right,
    I need not wake up that early as lecture starts at 12 today.
    But PH messaged me the night before to help in collecting the immunology books.
    I thought there'll be a whole bunch of people going but it turned out there's just both of us -.-"
    And I only helped in carrying 3 books,
    while he took the rest.
    Lol.
    Kinda hesitated in making the decision at first 'cause one,
    it's at Dhoby Ghaut and two,
    I think he could have managed on his own hahaha XDD
    But still, I couldn't find a good enough reason for me not to go either.
    Yepp so reached school just in time for 2 hours of lecture on maternity,
    afterwhich was another 2 hours of self-learning tutorial lesson.
    Lol.
    I'm quite certain that I might actually do better without the lessons-.-"
    Celebrated Serene's birthday afterthat and ended my day in school with a nice slice of blackforest cake(:
    Awesome!
    OOH and I tried something new today!
    Because it's the Korean Cultural Week in school,
    the stalls are selling stuff from Korea (I was soooooo excited! But the number of stalls are rather limited though).
    Anyway there was icecream from Korea as well!
    My eyes lit up the moment I saw it XDD
    The 3 of us (Daph, Hongz and myself) each brought an icecream in a cake,
    as recommended by Daphne because she ate it previously when she went Korea.
    Good stuff!
    It's a pity the cultural week only lasted for 2 days- Thurs and Fri.
    I didn't even get to go to the Central Forum to check out the greater variety of shops :(
    Ahhh nevermind,
    I believe there're plenty more chances in the future :DD
    And I spent the night doing my research for ethics,
    which got me more tired now.
    But, I love getting work done so I'm basking in the satisfaction now(:
    Gonna start tomorrow on a happy note!
    Omg I can't be more happier now that the weekend's here,
    I cherish it more than ever^^
    Time to tone down the engine!
    And I'm finally getting an organizer tomorrow!
    Can't wait!^^
    Gotta sleep now,
    I'm in my room so Alicia's kinda affected by the lights and all.
    Goodnight everyone!^^

    Ohh before I end off,
    Photobucket
    Taken on the day we sent off Christina at the airport after school(:
    I absolutely love the airport!
    We stayed there playing cards, taking photos, exploring places till 10 plus.
    Reached home at 12 plus that day, and somemore schooling the next day:\
    It was funnnnn nevertheless,
    especially during the card game,
    I think the entire cafeteria heard us, oops XDD

    Photobucket
    One of the first friends I made in Nursing and a wonderful pal since-Christina, study well over there!
    We'll see you soon!^^

    Shall end off here!^^

    The day felt long and draining... but well spent(:
    Goodnight everybody,
    I feel as if my body's gonna break apart any moment now...

    Wednesday, January 19, 2011


    HEYIES~
    Been quite a while since I last updated.
    I can see myself lagging in the internet world.
    Just feels like I've missed out on many things.
    Ahh I shall admit it,
    I can't exactly live without my lappy:\
    Anyways,
    I started the day at 6 with a jolly good mood.
    Thought I'd work the day out with a positive attitude.
    But sometimes life takes a turn and the joke's on you.
    Ahh so you can pretty much guess how the day turned out for me so far >.<
    I guess I'm too tired to be posting much for now.
    I've got lessons at 8 again tomorrow,
    meaning I've gotta get up at 6 again.
    Seriously our timetables suck.
    The breaks are burning away precious time that can be put away for doing things that are of greater worth,
    rather than rotting ourselves away in school.
    I wouldn't be complaining so much if I had a choice over my timetable,
    like being able to plan my schedules and all,
    but the thing is,
    it's pre-allocated for us.
    Even the lecturers agree that it's a complete waste of time >.<
    Our class rap's gonna talk to the dean about this tomorrow, thankfully.

    Lol.
    I realize the posts lately are full of rantings,
    much more compared to the posts written during the holidays XDD
    See what school's done to me...
    I shall try and minimize my complaints from now.
    Think happy thoughts!
    Yepp.
    And dropped by to meet Ade Jung today on my way home from school to get the lapcoat for tomorrow's Anat Hall.
    Thanks Ade Jung, and your sis as well^^

    My happy thoughts of the day:
    Photobucket

    Photobucket
    I must say that he looks the best here- Junsu-ya~
    And he's been so sweet with his charity work,
    even I feel my heart melt alittle:\
    Lucky there's Jae's NR CF to bring me back~
    I'm still yours KJJ!
    LOL.

    Photobucket
    I kinda like this series of photos :D

    Ahh so much to do,
    so limited time...
    I need to be organized from now on,
    like really organized,
    and to possess the ultimate self-determination and self-discipline,
    I must!
    And I will;
    starting with getting an organizer this weekend.
    I wonder if it's just me or am I really getting quite forgetful...
    And I'm not even 20...

    Lol enough with all the crap,
    I shall turn in soon,
    but not before I do Jiayan's birthday gift.
    So many birthdays!
    I'm really, really broke.
    So I might not be able to come out for a while.
    Pardon me if I'm unable to meet up during this period.
    Going out equals spending $ and I have negative value now.
    Ask me out only from the start of next month please,
    though I have a few exceptions.
    Birthdays, apparently, are important luhh,
    so I won't save on the birthday gifts,
    so no worries about that.

    Before I leave...

    You can make diamonds melt in room temperature~

    Shall post before the week starts tomorrow.
    I realize that there're lesser stuff for me to write about,
    even though by right it shouldn't be the case since there're more activities going on in my life right now.
    Rantings about school alone is enough to flood my post >.<
    But apparently, that's not the case.
    Anyways,
    haven't seem to catch up on the momentum of school.
    I'm still somewhere in my own land,
    living my own fantasy.
    Last week was crap and I don't intend to repeat that.
    This is the week whereby the tutorials will begin and frankly,
    I'm not really looking forward to it.
    I feel like fainting whenever I look at the long hours to spend in school.
    Whatever.
    I strongly believe that I can be a student and I love a student's life,
    but face it, I'm just not cut out for living an all-study life >.<

    Of course,
    I'm not saying I'm not going to neglect my studies or anything.
    But I think balance is key.
    I will pace myself from tomorrow!
    All the best to myself!^^

    Don't impose your beliefs or practices on me,
    because I'm not you,
    so don't tell me what to do.

    -With All My Heart, Alina ;

    Saturday, January 15, 2011


    This is something I figured I really need to vent it out,
    even if I've only got 5 minutes on my hand now.

    You do realize that confidence is different from arrogance, do you?
    Some people just have this inferior mindset that is programmed to convince themselves that they are more superior than others.
    Seriously what's wrong with you?

    -With All My Heart, Alina ;

    Friday, January 14, 2011


    OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!
    IT'S FINALLY FRIDAY!!!
    You don't know how much I've been waiting for this day to arrive.
    The week has been hell for me:\
    At the end of each day I feel like I've just battled a dragon-.-"
    I've got 2 reflective journals waiting for me but there just isn't enough brain juice to work on them.
    I'm putting that aside for now.
    Can't allow anything to ruin my Friday night,
    especially when it's a night with my precious...
    Photobucket
    KJJ~
    It's been too long!

    Photobucket
    Even when doing something as simple as drinking water you can be so irresistible~

    Photobucket
    ^^

    Photobucket
    Seeing that smile of yours makes my world a brighter place~
    I've been missing you KJJ!

    It don't matter what they say
    I know nobody can ever take your place


    Tonight's a night of spazzing.
    I'll post more tomorrow!
    Gonna go back into the arms of my KJJ^^

    Wednesday, January 12, 2011


    I'm gonna have to make this real quick.
    Feels like forever since I last used the lappy:\
    So I'm rather pleased to get my fingers sprawled across the keyboard again^^
    But only for a while as I've gotta go do my reflective journaling afterwards:\
    Anyways,
    the balloting results were out and I'm so glad I got most of my preferred time slots(:
    But still,
    my timetable's damn hardcore.
    On average,
    I'll be spending like 9 hours in school everyday except on Fridays,
    when school lasts for 4 hours instead >.<
    Although it's only been Day 3 since the start of school,
    I already feel the stress rising;
    each lecture now lasts for 2 hours at least and the modules require a minimum of 2 brains to handle:(
    What's worse is,
    each time I return home i feel so frustrated because the place is always so goddamn messy.
    Things lying here and there,
    stuff not done.
    ARGHHH.
    I never liked school much,
    but this time it's giving me a major headache.
    I need time to reorganize my thoughts and fully prepare myself for what's gonna come next.

    I'm stressed.

    -With All My Heart, Alina ;

    Monday, January 10, 2011


    I've just completed my balloting for the time slots of my classes.
    But the relief ain't gonna set in till tonight 11pm,
    when the results will be out.
    We're hoping to get the same classes!
    I hope luck is on our side!

    I shall end off now,
    gonna get ready for school later,
    and I haven't had breakfast yet :\
    But I'm not leaving without a few pictures first :D

    It's a sunny yellow, banana day~
    Okay, it's not exactly sunny,
    not exactly yellow,
    nor is it a banana day.
    But that song popped up in my mind out of the blue.
    Remember the advertisement regarding the banana milk from HL Marigold?
    That's the song for the ad haha!
    Surprisingly,
    my mood's very positive today,
    and I'm hoping it'll stay this way^^

    Alicia's finally back from camp(:
    The couple of days without her at home felt weird.
    She's still very hyped up from her experience at camp XD
    I call it the withdrawal symptoms XDD
    And Andy's getting his O levels results tomorrow.
    Though he doesn't really show it,
    all of us can tell he's feeling pretty nervous about it.
    I hope all goes well for him tomorrow.
    "What's most important is knowing you've given your best.
    And there's nothing more worthy than that."

    And I managed to have my notes printed last night^^
    Check out the huge stack of notes!
    Photobucket
    And these are only a week's worth of notes :(
    Talk about saving the trees-.-"

    Came across 2 things that put a frown and a smile to my face respectively.
    Firstly,
    Don't let something that took 7 years to build crumble overnight.
    - John Yoon
    How true.
    7 years may not seem long but it's also 2556 days,
    61, 344 hours,
    3,680, 640 minutes,
    220, 838, 400 seconds.
    Let's not let a moment of folly destroy what took them effort and hardship to establish.

    Secondly,
    it's "EverLastingFriend"
    This is the reason you're important to me,
    because you mean the same way to me as well- my ever lasting friend(:

    I shall end off now.
    I should be spending some time with my family too(:
    I'm looking forward to a new start tomorrow!^^
    For those who are also embarking on a new beginning or entering a new phase in life,
    let's all work hard together^^

    Saturday, January 08, 2011


    Intended to post after I came home last night,
    but I went to sleep instead.
    The inspiration's just not there,
    and I don't like to write without the ability to express myself properly XD
    Anyway,
    I went Sentosa last evening!
    Photobucket
    It was my first time taking a tram from Vivocity into Sentosa!
    It was an ordinary ride,
    but the experience was exciting nevertheless(:
    In case you're unaware,
    I went into Sentosa for the BBQ organized by our nursing mates.
    There was a chalet actually,
    but I didn't stay-
    couldn't afford the money,
    couldn't afford the time :\
    It's been a long time since I entered Sentosa.
    I remember the previous trip I made was around this time last year.
    I came down with Ivan to help his friend book a chalet.
    There had been changes made to the place since then.
    I think I ought to come down again one day :D
    Didn't eat much at the BBQ as the food was mostly spicy.
    But still,
    I had a good time(:
    Hongz couldn't come as she had to care for her parents so there was only Daph, Ivy and myself.
    Spent most of our time at the beach, which was empty, much to our surprise XD
    I can hardly remember the last time I went to a beach at night,
    but the feeling's splendid.
    Watching the waves hit the shore and the breeze touch your skin-
    I haven't felt so much at peace for a long time.
    Because we didn't had much for dinner,
    the 3 of us headed to Vivo for ice-cream @ Ben & Jerry's.
    But it was too late at night and the shop was closed,
    so we went to have Mac instead :D
    After an ice cream cone and fries,
    we rushed off to catch the last train.
    We ran like lunatics~
    Thankfully I had a smooth journey home and all was well(:
    As for the incident I don't think most of you will know about,
    it's no longer an issue of concern(:
    I'm glad we are able to stay that way(:
    And that marked the end of my Friday(:

    And although I set my alarm to sound @ 8.30am this morning,
    I got up only @ 11 -.-"
    It's as if I'm trying to make up for all the insufficient sleep I know I'll get when school reopens.
    So my mind's telling my body to rest more now lol XDD
    Anyways,
    I went to use the laptop after I had breakfast.
    But it was only 15 minutes before I shut it down again.
    Too much drama.
    No wonder they say the entertainment industry's a scary place.
    Friends can turn to foes.
    Truths can be twisted into such lies.
    It's sad.
    I feel as if I'm watching a kingdom crumble and fall.
    A kingdom, which was once so strong, so powerful,
    seems so fragile right now.
    And the soldiers,
    who were once so loyal, so united,
    has now divided into different groups.
    Some left,
    others stayed,
    some waiting to watch how things will unfold at the end of the day,
    some chose to believe and keep the faith.
    But one thing's for sure,
    the numbers have changed.

    Does it matter who's right and who's wrong?
    Is it really that important?
    Will knowing the truth change your love for them?
    I think the important thing to note is the reason you started in the first place.
    Fan wars should stop, it's exhaustive to everyone.

    I think sometimes we just need one person to stand up and speak for what's right,
    not who's right.
    Thank you to the PD who stood up to finally say something worth listening to.

    That's all for the fangirl side of me,
    I don't think she's very happy lately,
    considering all the chaos that's going on in the fandom.
    I'll be switching to being a schoolgirl pretty soon.
    Gonna have my notes printed by tonight.
    Hopefully I can clear all of them tonight and get this load off my chest.
    I'm hoping(:

    Haha!
    I just had to upload this:
    Photobucket
    Went Bugis with Buddy Wong the other day-
    a problem-free day^^

    The following photos might be hazardous to health.
    Take caution.

    There's a meaning to this photo!

    The above can be considered normal photos.
    As for those that follows,
    hmmm...

    Retard level: Moderate
    I don't know why I agreed to this... LOL

    Photobucket
    I suggested this posture after having taken the one above.
    Retard level: Dangerously high

    Photobucket
    No need to check,
    I think we did have a fever...

    Photobucket
    Retard level: Off the charts
    Buddy, I think this image suits you very much^^

    Photobucket
    This is one EPIC photo.
    Best.
    Hahaha!
    Let's go out again soon buddy!^^

    I wish I had more time to spend with you people.
    Hopefully, I'll be able to achieve this in the next holiday(:

    Before I end off,
    Ade Jung,
    I'm hoping you'll stay optimistic regardless of what you may face(:
    I know your problems are not those that can be resolved overnight,
    so give the matter some time,
    I know it'll eventually work out(:
    Even though school's starting and I won't have as much time on my hands now,
    I'll be keeping you in thought.
    Take care and we'll meet up soon!(:

    Friday, January 07, 2011


    Woke up this morning with the decision to let that incident slide.
    Because of it, I've boycotted the internet and reduced my communication via technology to a minimum.
    But now,
    I'm just going to pretend nothing's happened and carry on with my life as per normal.
    So I'm back to posting today-
    the only place I know I can't make any drastic mistakes like the one I made T.T

    Anyway,
    I'm alone at home today.
    The loneliness is eating me alive T.T
    Alicia went for her camp while Andy went West Coast Park,
    or was it East Coast Park with his friends.
    So I've got the morning to myself.
    Thought I'll begin my day with something happy.
    So since I haven't been visiting their (TVXQ) sites for a day now,
    I expected more news waiting for me.
    There were more news indeed,
    including a post which made my heart fell to the ground floor.
    But what made me speechless was seeing certain comments after the post.
    I think whatever the company's trying to do in a way is succeeding-
    the line is almost drawn.
    There are even those waiting to see things unfold as if it's some drama show.
    I don't know if I've interpreted it correctly but I feel upset thinking about it :(

    What about something uplifting for a change?
    Photobucket
    Christmas gift from BUDDY WONG!
    I love it,
    But I love YOUUUUU more^^





    I have no idea what to think now.
    There are problems I wish I hadn't create,
    and matters I believe I need to resolve.
    There are also issues that are mine to bear yet not mine to handle.
    Only time can make it go away now.
    And I've been feeling the pressure of returning to school hitting hard on me.
    Even though there're times I manage to keep it off my mind,
    thoughts of it still haunt me before I sleep at night.
    It is a time when all the problems come running back to you and there's no running from it.
    I'm paranoid, yes, very paranoid,
    and I hate myself for being so.
    I don't wish to burden the people around me with my problems as I know they've got theirs to deal with as well,
    yet I don't know how to face them alone.
    I'll let work numb me from that problematic mind for now,
    I'm standing in for a teacher @ Joyland for a couple of days.
    I hope my blood pressure don't rise.
    With that, I'll end this post.
    I'm having a BBQ tonight and probably won't have the time to post again today.
    Have a great day people!
    The weather's really fine today,
    I should go down for a walk.
    Seeya!

    The beginning of 06012011 and I hear about a sad incident.
    A girl took her life because of certain circumstances she cannot accept in life.
    Even though she's totally unrelated to me,
    I can't help but feel for her.
    Can't help but wonder about the final thoughts she had before she did it;
    about whether thoughts of her family and friends did even appear.

    Photobucket
    Life is too precious,
    so precious that it's not ours to take.
    So don't.

    I think...
    it's been a long time since I've felt so carefree...
    Doing the things I like,
    with the people I love,
    even if it's only for a day,
    for an afternoon...
    I couldn't have spent it better than the way I did today(:

    And I received a message from an unexpected someone earlier.
    Because it's been a year or so since we last contacted each other,
    I was really surprised to receive the message.
    It was a short message,
    but it meant quite a lot to me-
    to be aware that someone's thinking of me and the times spent together before,
    even though it's been a long time ago;
    I'm really glad(:
    We'll see each other soon!
    And I'm sorry I didn't contact you soon enough!

    Recently I realized,
    if I'm being truthful enough to myself,
    I see that in fact,
    I need my friends more than I need a boyfriend.
    They are the people I truly cannot live without,
    as of now.
    They are my strength,
    my comfort zone,
    my pillars of support,
    and I think right now I would like things to stay this way,
    because I know having someone else in my life will somehow,
    change the balance of things,
    and I don't think I want to change anything yet at this moment.
    I still want to place "Friends" directly below the "Family" category,
    not after a "Boyfriend".
    Perhaps just not now.

    -With All My Heart, Alina ;



    I'm gonna have to make this a quick one as I'll be going out afterwards XDD
    Firstly,
    good morning everyone!
    Haha!
    I realized that most of my posts have "Goodnight everyone!" in them but no "good morning"
    This shall be my first(:

    Anyway,
    I was clearing my hotmail inbox a while ago,
    which by now has accumulated a total of 309 unread emails:\
    And as I was browsing through,
    I saw an unread email from my mum which was sent to me around 2 years ago.
    I clicked on it and saw that it was quite a long mail.
    I won't reveal the contents here but it just made me feel once again,
    my mum's love and concern for me.
    My heart feels very warm right now(:
    I do have one regret though,
    that is not reading it earlier and giving her a reply.
    So, I think I'll make it a point to check my hotmail as frequently as possible from now haha,
    lest I get any more regrets like this one.

    Okay I guess I shall end here for now.
    I'm in a bit of a rush.
    Will post again soon!
    Have a great day people!
    I'm glad the weather's fine!^^

    P.S "I'll never let go, so Don't Say Goodbye."
    I like that(:

    Remember I said I'm gonna start my day early today?
    Apparently 11.30 am is not considered early-.-"
    All because I had a good sleep last night.
    Too good.
    That's why I couldn't bear to wake up.
    But I don't think I have much of a chance to get up this late when school starts.
    So I guess it's okay?
    Haha!
    Anyway I woke up this morning feeling slightly grouchy.
    Like the mood I had yesterday vanished during my sleep.
    But it came back again after lunch
    so I figured I was merely hungry >.<

    And yes,
    it's Alicia's first day back in school.
    She had just returned home and I heard that her day went fairly well.
    That's good to hear,
    but it also made me think about the day when school starts for me:\
    I heard the notes are already out:\
    Ohh shucks!
    I'm gonna try really hard to shut those thoughts out,
    for now.

    Another random thought:
    I think one of the top qualifications I hope for my future partner to have is the capability of catching insects,
    like those cockroaches!
    I spotted another one at home last night!
    It came into the room and totally freaked me out.
    I think it might be the same one but who cares!
    I really don't like such things at home,
    even if there's only one and that it'll disappear in the morning.
    But it just makes me feel extremely insecure.
    Ants are the limit, and perhaps occasional flies,
    but nothing bigger than that.
    Haiyo we really need to spring clean soon!
    And carry out pest control!
    Ohh and the funny thing is,
    I went into the room to wake Andy up to get rid of it and he did this:
    He closed the door back and said "There, it won't come in le lorr." -.-"
    Yeahh so my point is whoever I'm living with in the future must be able to keep the home insect-free XDD

    I guess that's all for today.
    Nothing happening.
    I'll post again soon!
    Till then, take care people!(:
    (Get ready to shed some weight tomorrow alina!)

    Let's commemorate this day (03012011),
    when KJJ first took the cable car!
    Can you imagine living for over 20 odd years and not having taken a cable car before...
    My poor Jae...
    And the Sasaeng taxis had to spoil his fun by stalking him ;(
    Feels sorry for him:\
    But I guess he had fun, however limited(:

    Photobucket
    He tweeted this before the pictures he took @ Seoul Tower today.
    What have you done to Jiji...?

    Photobucket
    In the cablecar~
    Lol babya,
    can't blame people for recognizing you;
    you've got this celebrity aura from the inside XDD

    Photobucket
    He tweeted this mentioning the crowd and the cold~

    Photobucket
    I personally like this alot alot.
    Beary beary cute~

    Photobucket
    How come the thing I see glowing is not the tree but him~

    Photobucket
    The last photo he tweeted tonight~
    I hope you'll get to have more fun next time round!
    Evil Sasaeng taxis!;(
    (P.S. Twitter is like one of the best creations in the internet world XDD)

    Ahh this is simply a night of spazzing!
    Just watched a Japanese variety show called HEY! HEY! HEY! featuring TVXQ.
    It's an old video, but I think that's what we all love to watch now.
    Anyway baby is the fastest at peeling hotdogs!!!
    I don't know why but their hotdogs are all wrapped up in individual packaging and you've gotta peel them before eating.
    I never knew a guy could look so charming doing something so simple
    *faints*

    Shall head to bed now,
    intend to start my day early tomorrow!
    Goodnight everybody!
    Forgive me, the fangirl's in me today!

    Photobucket
    I'll sleep thinking of you tonight!^^
    Jaljayo~

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY QIAN-ER!
    Photobucket
    Although there weren't extravagant presents,
    I hope you feel my sincerity nevertheless.
    Happy Birthday(:

    Random:
    Photobucket
    Taken yesterday when my mum cooked tangyuan~
    5 in the bowl~
    LOL XDD

    Anyways,
    as I was afraid her sister might be anxious to read,
    I went to return Ade Jung her books earlier.
    Lol I think we can go on talking forever XDD

    Ohh and because someone said that I've posted Yoochunnie & Jaejoongie and I've missed out someone...
    Photobucket
    Tada!
    Though he's abit round now,
    there's no denying the power of his voice.
    Hahaha XDD
    Here's Junsuya :D

    I just came across this and I can't help but post it as well.
    Photobucket
    Sorry Jae, but I almost died at the hands, no, eyes of KJS here.
    May the musical be another success!

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    习惯了一个人的自由,
    反而害怕两个人相处.
    I think I need more time to think it through.


    Ohh what a random random post this is.
