I hate my fats!

Oh my goodness!
I'm so fucking depressed that I'm so fat!
I just wish I could be much slimmer.

Oh my fats, I know I used to like to give all of you names.
But now I'm sick of even looking at all of you.
You guys seem to have brought a lot of extended family into my body huh.
What are you guys thinking?
I'm running a charity home for fats?!
I don't, okay? So, stop bringing them in alright!

Arrgh!!!
So pissed off with my stupid fats!
I wished they had been less thick-headed.
Don't they understand? I want them to leave!!!
Grrr!!! -pinches my fats-

"My Wife Is A Gangster 3"

This afternoon I went for movie on my own.
Caught My Wife Is A Gangster 3 at orchard cineleisure.
With a cup of ice lemon tea and a regular pack of sweet popcorn, I hurried into the cinema, only to find myself caught in a sea of stares, all because I arrived 5 minutes late for the movie.
O well, how humilliating can that get.
However, I really enjoyed the movie.
Shu Qi acted as the daughter of a Hong Kong traid leader, oh my, you should have seen her! She was COOL!!! I mean, she's got a great figure and woah, she knew martial arts. You know what I mean, Shu Qi played the character Ar-Young, and that character really got some character, you know.
Ar-Young went to Korea to lay low from the Hong Kong gangs' dispute and there she met Ki-Choi, acted by Lee Byum-Su. Ki-Choi as her bodyguard tried to protect Ar-Young, but realised she's able to do more than defending herself.
And well, you know, the romance comes in along with some comedy and of course, some tears when Ar-Young's dad passed away.
The whole cinema burst into peals of laughter every now and then, and you can hear a sob or two when the sad part was screened.
I cried too, and I felt so good after crying.
I mean, I guess I need a good cry sometimes. If not, I will feel like a stone or something.
It's like, I need to cry to feel human-ish, but I need a cause to cry, and watching movie alone gives me that cause and ambience.
Well, watching movie gives me the cause but watching it alone without friends, gives me the ambience.
'Cause I do not usually cry in front of my loved ones. Or people who knows me.
So, I guess I felt good going for movie today!
=)
Oh, and yes, go catch My Wife Is A Gangster 3, you'll love it!

compassion

This morning I went to church.
It was great!
I mean, I love the message spoken by Suhon.
Furthermore, he put it in a manner that's really close to the heart.
I had quite some updates from my oikos members, many updates are news to me.
But I'm glad they actually make the effort to update me.
Also, I had lunch with them at Budget Terminal's Hans.

Yesterday, after filming, I went out with Nic and my brother.
We went to Plaza Singapura for a walk.
When we reached the third storey, we looked down and saw a teenage girl wriggling on the travelator. Immediately, we recognised that was an epileptic fit attack.
We rushed down immediately to help the girl, I was most worried that someone will shove something into her mouth to stop her from biting her tongue.
Well, basically, if a person is having a fit attack and you shove something into her/his mouth, that person will choke.
When I got down, the first thing I did was to ask the people not to crowd around the patient so as to let her breathe. I turned her on her side and put her head down properly on her bag.
An Indian passerby ask me, " Are you her friend?"
I replied, " No, but I'm an epileptic child."
The patient was frothing and jerking, I took a tissue and wiped away the froth.
For a moment, I was gripped with fear.
But then, I told myself: if I'm afraid, how will I be able to help her?
Then, I contacted her parents and told them about the situation and the location.
After I hanged up the mobile, I turned to a security guard and ask for a chair to let the patient rest.
I saw the girl embarrassed by the whole situation, so I told her, " I'm an epileptic child too. And I understand it's very tiring after a fit attack, don't worry, just rest well."
I told the managers firmly that they have to let the girl wait for her parents to pick her up.
I was so happy that I helped someone having the same problem as me.

Happy happy happy! YAY!!! =)

游记

我回来后的几天,父母亲都问我:经历了这次的浸入活动,我到底学了什么?
我想,我真的成熟了。
面对生活起居的问题;人际关系的问题,我想我真地领略了很多。

这四个半月内,我不止从自己面对的人事物上学到不少,从朋友的经验上也体会许多。
我学会了生病时得靠自己;喉咙痛得自己找咳嗽药水、伤风流鼻涕得吃药多休息、头疼得吞止痛药,也学会了到超市办货。再重的东西都要自己扛,因为没有人有义务替你办这些琐碎的事。
第一堂课:对于自己的生活得自己负起责任。
这四个半月内,没有父母在旁一直唠叨着,没有人常提醒:要记得准时吃饭。晚上,若把被子或枕头踢下床,也没人替你拾上来,没人替你盖被。

和朋友一起住固然好玩,但得面对的问题也一样的多。每个人都有不同的性格与脾气,有时候两个人的脾气对不着时,就会觉得很难受,整间房就像被撒满火药似的。原本以为是很坚固的友谊后来变质了,改变了对人与人之间关系的概念。
第二堂课:合得来就多聚一聚,合不来就少谈几句咯。有些事无需把它看得太重,太在意只会让自己痛苦。

这次也看到了同学们之间你争我夺的场面,也看到老师们“击鼓传铃”的举动。
看了也觉得心寒啊!
第三堂课:就如我母亲说的;每个人头上都有片天,何必争的你死我活呢?而有难时,却是你推给我,我推给你,诸如此类的画面。

当然,虽然不愉快的事情不少,但快乐的时光不是没有的。和好友一起聊天逛街旅游,都是这次旅程的收获。每次出游,都学了非常多。独立生活让我的经验累积满满的,以不同的角度看待事物,也更珍惜自己拥有的一切。我想更充实地过自己的生活,不要让生命就这样流失。

there's no place i'd rather be

Yesterday night, I finally touched down at Singapore Changi Airport at 7.40p.m.
My family and friends came to fetch me.
I was very very emotional.
When I looked out of the window of the plane, I saw the island of Singapore.
I don't know why, but I felt a rush of mixed emotions running through me.
It's like, FINALLY I'm back home.
And it's amazing how I survived the four and a half months in a faraway place without my close friends and family.
To my friends: thank you all for the white lilies, very sweet of you guys.
And to my family members: thank you for everything, I love you guys.
THANK YOU SO MUCH everyone!!!
*muackz*
Seriously, right now, there's no place I'd rather be but over here in Singapore.
=)

NDP Theme Song 2007







As I watch these two videos, I was so touched.
I nearly teared.
Those famillar places in Singapore!
Oh manz, I really miss Singapore so much!
Really, as what the song says: There's no place I'd rather be but home.
So 感动 when I see my beloved Singapore in the videos.

friendship, lovely

Yay!!!
I finally finished my examinations!
Lalala~ teehee......
Tomorrow I'll be going to Shanghai with my friends, just a one day trip lah.
To do some last minute shopping.
Then, on the 7 july 2007, I'll be leaving for Beijing with the school.
Some educational trip, will last for four days three nights.
On the 10th, I'll be back in the university.
On the 13th, we're going to hold a graduation ceremony. YES! I'm graduating from ZUCC!
On the 15th, I'll be back in Singapore's Changi Airport, it'll be home sweet home.

I guess, on the night before we leave, my roomies and I will stay up late to chat while in bed.
Hmmm......I've been thinking a lot. Thinking about my whole trip in China.
Friendships forged; the process of learning how to take care of myself as well as others; how to survive in adversities; how to live with my friends, with people whom I'm not very close with in the first place; how to get along with friends who are different from me.
I guess these are very wonderful experiences, though sometimes we rebel here and there; though my hair gone through a lot of experiments(cut, dye, straighten, treament, perm etcetra); though we've gone through mood swings and screaming at each other; though we've gone through really down and scary moments; but in the end, we actually survived all these.

Yes, we cried and bawled our eyes out in front of each other, but we also laughed and screamed our heads off in front of each other. We helped each other even though we actually have to go the extra mile, 'cos I guess we know that we need to lean on each other 'cos in this strange land, we've only got each other. So, overall, though I really hate it academically, but I really thank God for the things that I've learnt.

Thank You Great Daddy! =)
And also, thank you my friends. Really, thank you all.

Last but not least, I want to thank my family and gang in Singapore, thank you for the emails.
You guys really have no idea how much those emails mean to me. They really kept me going on.
And to someone whom may not like to be named, no matter which part of the world you are at, you always give me an email whenever you're free. Thank you so much for trusting me and confiding in me. Miss you loads, hope to see you soon. >.<

Losing Touch

I think I'm losing my Midas Touch.
I mean, I'm losing the writing touch.
I just sit in front of the computer or a blank piece of paper and nothing comes out from me.
It's just purely demoralising.
I flipped through my old works.
English poetry; chinese poems; some songs, those are my pride.
But now, I seemed to suffer from writer's block.
I'm trying really hard to write something, but my mind is in a virginal blank.
What's up with me man?
I've really got no idea.
Really.
='(

"Shining Friends"

A little faith, brightens a rainy day
Life is difficult, you can't go away
Don't hide yourself in the corner
You have my place to stay
Sorrow is gonna say goodbye
Opens up
You'll see the happy sunshine
Keep going on with your dream
Chasing tomorrow's sunrise
The spirit can never die
Sun will shine, my friend
Won't let you cry, my dear
Seeing you shed a tear
Make my world disappear
You'll never be alone in darkness
See my smile, my friend
We are with you, holding hands
you have got to believe, you are my destiny
We're meant to be your friends
That's what a friend should be

《恋爱你我》

大家又有眼福了!我刚写好一首诗,就发布了。请多给点意见,多谢诸位。

《恋爱你我》
星期天的太阳是你
灿烂俊脸
光芒笑颜
让我不自觉爱上你

咖啡店的红砖有你
微微笑意
冰红茶里
漂浮着你的小倒影

相隔海水洗去情苗
怀念一切
离别之念
希望再见你的微笑

现在正是下午四点
六个月前
这里想见
今时的阳艳
忆起当时
我们的晴天

-陈韵蕾
