What happens when you know Eve?

She's brutal.
She's cold.
She's just plain evil.

Excerpt from conversation with Ben :
Ben : miss you too, have you had your dinner?
Me : Miss me?
Me : WTF?
Ben scrambles off and tells me to ignore the message.
You know something, Ben..... i ain't gonna ignore it.

Reason why everyone loves Eve
1) She's gorgeous
2) She's evil.
3) She's Brutal
4) She's cool.
5) you know she means what she says.

Hahaha, enjoy this, Ben.
Oh yes, i miss you too

Dave's Big BBQ Party

Dave's Big BBQ Party
Originally uploaded by daftbitch.

Saturday evening was spent at Dave's big bbq party. He's in no doubt one of the best bbq organizers. There were pork ribs, stingrays, jumbo huge prawns, sausages, chicken wings... and skewered chicken ala yakitori. Through & through, the food was well marinated and definitely yummy.

I had fun. The pool beside the bbq pit was totally nice. I can soak my feet to the jets. The only bummer is i burnt my thumb. Yes, it looks as though i am now the ambassador for plasters. Overall, I enjoyed the night, met some new people. We had a really small bunch of people around. Dave's family is super friendly. And you know what... i nearly forgot : HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE. You know we love you.

Hong Kong Birthday Escape...

me in Mongkok
Originally uploaded by daftbitch.

I seized the chance to fly off to Hong Kong for a brief escapade. It was a brief four days. Frankly, i don't fancy holidays to anywhere other than back to US, cos i never have adequate sleep. It's always walking walking walking. I much more fancy a hols somewhere on the beach, when i can just walk around in shorts & bikini, though i really have to work out to get a much better leaner bod.

So back to Hong Kong. We had a full four days. The first of which spent in Shenzhen. And then off to Hong Kong to shop up a storm. Well i didn't exactly get a lot of stuff. I did get a pair of heels, a pair of boots, 3 tops, and a skirt. Hmm, and a couple of bags. Not a lot, considering i have heard people coming back with oversized or overweight baggages.

Maybe i just have too much stuff. I do like the style of the people of Hong Kong ( are they Hongkie? or Hong Kongers? I think it's the latter). Sneakers are their choice of footwear, and they have a lot of vintage nikes and adidas, and tons of converse shoes. it's very street very comfy, and i love it.

The food is my kinda stuff. Very light. Instant noodles with either spam, eggs or ham. Your choice. And of course, coke with slices of lemon... or even the amount of herbal tea. There's a herbal tea stall almost every street. I also had some lamb ribs. Hmmm.. dim sum. Oh, and there's this fantabulous dessert stall in Tsim Sha Tsui called Sweet Dynasty. The food was just absolutely yummy : the glutinous dumpling, the tang yuen, the almond paste. I don't quite like the ice kachang kinda stuff. But dig the cantonese style of dessert of almond / sesame paste.

Of course i got back to Singapore, very tired. And went back to work the next day. And i'm still sick. It's been a week. Sigh...

Oh thanks for the birthday wishes and sms-es. I ishhhh very touched. But now to sleep off my cold / sore throat and dry eyes. sigh...

Back...

It's been some days since my birthday. This year it's toned down, except peppered with tons of shopping. I haven't quite gotten to unpacking. Maybe i will.

Dear Ben, i will upload pics and a full run-through of my escape from my own birthday celebrations... as soon as i find my frigging k*%#*$%^& sync cable for the camera.

Oh side note : i got the new ipod nano in pink. it's cute. it's smaller than my mobile phone.

very lovely...

I got home today, and turned on the tv to Channel U. And it was showing "Save your last dance" a korean drama serial encompassing the lovelife of these two lovers. Storyline : Guy loses memory, Guy meets girl. Guy regains memory. Guy forgets girl. Girl gets upset. Girl gets lost. Girl tries to help guy recalls memory, but failed. When guy falls in love with the girl again, the girl is dating his enemy. Cliche... yes i know.

But you know what. The music is quite soothing. I can be sappy sometimes, can't i? or you guys just can't deal with it?

My Melody & Me...

Bangkok Trip
Originally uploaded by daftbitch.

So tons of people have been asking what i've been feeling.
You know what... i never felt better.
Decisions are made much easier, with ease.
I decided to walk away. Walking away helps.
I finally uploaded pics from my trip to Bangkok, including pix of fishy fishes at the Siam Sea World.

And for Ben, this is a bag i managed to get while shoppin ard Bangkok.
Cute eh? Do you want a cycling outfit based on this design?

:) and now... let's just pray the week ahead gets better.

Of life & such.

I don't know what to write as the title of my post.
I only know right now, i feel a void.
Perhaps i asked for it, by loudly exclaiming i don't want it, for i might leave.
Perhaps i should have just kept my mouth shut.
Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps.
Do i really want to be with the people?
I thought about it & felt "No".
I looked around me, i don't feel the warmth.
The coldness surrounds me.
No longer i see the familiarity & closeness.
What i do feel is this sense of betrayal & distrust.
All around me feels strange.
My mouth can't speak the words of before.
What breeds now is this sense of fear to speak before me.
Contribution of my kindness has not been met.
My love has not been spread.
Such perils of life.
Maybe i should go.
Maybe i should stay.
I lost hope. Hope in mankind.

chocolate martini, soju & baileys...

It's Saturday morning. I just got home, after celebrating Wang's birthday. No pics, i didn't bring my camera out. We started off with Happy Hour @ Morton's @ 5pm to 7pm. The infamous steak sandwiches along with the kick-butt apple martinis & chocolate martinis. Divine plus fattening. It's been some time since i hung with the boys & the girls ... my drinking group who never fails to make me laugh until my socks get knocked off. We drank till close to 8pm. We prolly had at least 30 among the ten of us.

As if the steak sandwiches' not enough. We went off to korean bbq. I have never seen that much food on a table. Err actually i have. But the guys are funny. Soju soju soju soju soju Soju SOJU! Yes, seven bottles, plus a bottle of complimentary raspberry wine. This could only spell madness. And it's not even 10pm yet.

We continued the night by trottering down to Esmi, otherwise known as HOME GROUND. More alcohol... i stuck to my baileys. Of cos i got made to down two tequila rose. But that's cool. I still managed to drive Wang home. Hahahah

It's been a good night. And now goodnight to one & all. I love you guys...

Break...

I went to Bangkok last weekend for a quik getaway. I did buy some stuff. Mainly retro dresses etc. But it's surprising that despite the fashion being really low-priced & looks absolutely hot, that i only hauled home like 3 dresses, 3 tops, and a pair of shoes, couple of bags. I am so proud of myself.

Been swarmed with work upon return. I don't even have time to catch up on my old work. This is just too good to be true. Well, more work = more moolahz. No?!?! Yes ?!?!!! Definitely.

The song that i've been humming these days. Perhaps it reasonates with how i feel right now.
It's Over My Head (Cable Car) by The Frays.
"I never knew
I never knew that everything was falling through
That everyone I knew was waiting on a queue
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
But that's how it's got to be
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy
I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears"
