But dreams come slow and they go so fast

Some backdated things that've been happening in my life:

10/11/2013,

Ran Great Eastern 10KM with TF ^^. Daddy woke up early to send me to The Promontory in the rain. I wonder if it takes pain for people to see the love others have, but recently I've been very very touched by his love for the family. We're always a priority. Anyhows, the rain was so heavy around the Choa Chu Kang area, I was quite upset that I may not be able to run, partly because I had given myself a two day break from running for the 10K already. Super glad that the skies cleared up by the time it was the 10KM flag off.

Paced with this crazy girl who was going at 5min/KM. This is way faster than my normal pace and I nearly died at the halfway mark. Forced myself to slow down because I know my heart would have just stopped if I continued at that pace. Chanced upon this really warm Caucasian dude who was pacing his wife. He actually stopped to give a pep talk to this woman who gave up around the 9.5KM mark, encouraging her to press on. Little bits of good things happening.

Finished with a timing of 1:00:04. Satisfied with the timing I guess, though I was trying for sub-hour. But I just didn't have enough determination to push on towards the end.


Running has become as much of an exercise to lose weight, as a drug to me. Two days without it and I start having withdrawal symptoms, as if everything in the world is not right. I begin to feel that clothes don't fit, food doesn't taste right and my body starts to ache like crazy. One 6 click run later, all muscle ache magically disappears. Who needs massages? It's true that one can become addicted to Runner's High.

Headed over to Stranger's Reunion for Waffles after that. Two stinky, sweaty girls in a nice cafe.. we didn't bathe. The waffles were super good! Fluffy and soft and crispy. And the ice cream was perfect after a run. Wished that there were more flavours for the ice cream (don't know why it's always only vanilla bean that's on offer) and that I could have maple syrup as well.

Ordered Truffle Fries, because I'm always craving for truffle fries. Got a mini heart attack when the truffle fries appeared. The serving was humongous. Everytime I've had truffle fries with my friends the servings were always so tiny, and today when it's only two of us, out pops a huge bowl. I supposse the serving was for a much larger group, though the waiter could have politely informed us. Yes, it tasted good, so no complains I guess. I would like to imagine heaven tastes like the truffle in the mayonnaise sauce. The two of us ended up finishing the huge portion of truffle fries, because it was that good. With that, I have negated all the calories burnt.

Ladies night. School's officially over, and exams are done with. Went to The Butter Factory with some of my closest school friends. It's been a long time since I last drank, and it felt good to finally unwind. I'm sorry for the meltdown I had towards the end. I will always be eternally grateful to these people for taking care of the crazy me, crying and cursing at everyone. And yet, they were there pat talking to me and encouraging me of a better tomorrow. 

 Say hi to my new red lipstick // Officially addicted.

 Thank you lovelies for taking care of me.

 All monsters are humans.

 Be Happy. Take Care.

The truth hurts

/start rant  I don't usually tell people what I really feel. It just feels weird. Sometimes I feel like I have to be this perfect being there for everybody. Just devoid of feelings, rational, objective. Give you my opinion, my advice, end of story. But I'm not.  As a  # Taurus  In friendship, you're: loyal - you'll do almost anything for a friend. I'll do just about anything. I'll readily drop anything just to be there. But at some points in life I just get tired of all these. Tired of just listening to everybody complain about every damn thing. And when I just really need to talk to about something I either draw a blank or get things turned into a joke.  & you wonder why I don't ever talk about anything or tell you anything.  Thanks for making me feel shiteous again.  When my student can give me a better listening ear............ end rant/  New 2012 resolution: Stop having itchy fingers that reply to every damn thing....

Wild horses, couldn't drag me away (Rolling Stones, Wild Horses)

Having no idea why I'm so happy ((: I was bouncing all over my house and I think I'm smiling while typing at my laptop (((: I think, having slept almost 8 hours helped (sorry I was late tingtong macadangdang !! ). Watching Tim Urban stunning Kara with his perfect answer after she insulted his intelligence with all the snobbish air she has made me damn shuang. There should be a petition 'Kill Kara'. Hee Hee. So I wasted 8.50 on Clash of the Titans today. Just as well that we didn't watch it in 3d. Everything other than the battles was bad. Parts of it were old fashioned and tacky. What's up with Io gazing at Perseus longingly every single time she appears in the movie ?! Doesn't help that she's probably a few centuries older than him and their love was borne out of her watching him grow up. Incestous much. & Zeus brought her back to life over Perseus' adoptive family. REALLY? I'd guess two decades of bonding, of life on the seas, of love would...

But if you want to leave take good care; It's hard to get by just upon a smile

More than a year ago at Holland Village. When all there was between us were friendships. Now all that is left are cracks, divisions, hatred, awkwardness and scars.   I was snooping around my computer, clearing unwanted photos to free up some memory space. Stumbled upon this set of photos. It was a gathering at Crystal Jade Xiao Long Bao buffet. Walking along Holland Road at 1am to Sixth Avenue (or somewhere near). Oh it was such a good outing. Joy, laughter, freedom. There was no bad history between anybody. Who knew one year later the friendship would become so divided. There are people who won't talk to others. Unspoken resentments. Divided camps. I guess this is what happens when you get to know people, relationships develop and crumble, and when you realize people aren't really who you thought they were. Maybe it's part of growing up. Life can't be a bed of roses. Not everybody's nature is to be kind. Learn to discern. Rude Awakening. Seriou...
