| all for the 15th August 2009. |

The 2nd ME-DAY was a complete failure because I didn't go to the movies as planned. That's because I was informed by my planner (I know she secretly loves it when I call her that. =P) that the Tessensohn Club Poolside Terrace couldn't be booked. Thus I stayed home feeling depressed and frantically started searching for new venues. So now... managed to find some venues that would suit me and if all goes well, I might have a pretty nice venue!!!! *keeps fingers crossed*
Having a party is such a hassle really. Why did I agree to have one in the first place man.... now I can't exactly back out anymore. Oh well. Let's hope that it'll be fun.
The one thing that is confirmed though, is that I HAVE A BAND!!!!! The three wonderful lovelies (Cliffton, Sebas, Weiguang) are gonna be my band and play during the party. Totally estatic. I know they'll be great. =)
Oh... and some people have asked me what do I want for my birthday because they don't know what to get for me. Well... I don't know as well!!! I don't exactly have a wishlist at the moment and it's kinda weird to ask people to get me stuff from my wishlist too isn't it? The stuff on my wishlist might be out of their budget. So I don't know really. But I do know what I DON'T WANT for my birthday.
I DON'T WANT ANY SOFT TOYS. NO SOFT TOYS. NO SOFT TOYS PLEASE. NONONONONO.
Thanks. =) |

| 2nd ME-DAY |
[Jul. 9th, 2009|02:46 am] |
So... I was gonna blog about my 1st ME-DAY but I procrastinated... got too lazy... and.... yeah.
Anyway, it was fun exploring the museum on my own. I spent about 3 hours there looking at the Verner Panton exhibition and also walking around the Singapore History Gallery a little. The Verner Panton exhibition was totally awesome. I loved the explosion of colours and walking around the exhibition... I actually had some ideas for scrapbooking. Haha... Time to get some materials and get started!! Of course, the Phantasy Landscape was pretty cool. I think I spent close to 45 minutes in there lying around, fitting my body into all the different forms and spaces, and exploring the different ways to use the space. The experience would be much better if not for some irritating teenagers who could not get their volumes down and keep their mouths shut.
The Singapore History Gallery was quite interesting as well. Looking at the various exhibits while listening to stories and explanations on the companion... pretty cool. Too bad I didn't have enough time to really look around. There are really quite a lot of stuff to see and listen to in there. I think if you want to look at every single thing and listen to every single story, it would probably take quite a few hours.
All in all, it was really quite a fun experience! I would definitely go back there again to explore more. Maybe on another ME-DAY.
So... plans for my 2nd ME-DAY, I'm not quite sure but it's probably gonna be.... MOVIE TIME!!!!!
=)=)=)=)=)
By the way, I'm gonna have a party to celebrate my 21st!!!!! So exciting and so cool!!!!! I am so so happy =) and grateful to Hui Mei and Kerri who are giving me lots of help to make everything possible.
THANK YOU GIRLS!!! I LOVE YOU BOTH!!!!!!
Now... who wants to come to my party? =)=) |

| ME-DAY. |
[Jul. 1st, 2009|11:03 pm] |
I hereby declare all my following thursdays (at least for the next 6 weeks) to be ME-DAY!!!
ME-DAY means that it will be a day devoted to spending time doing things that I like. Preferably ALONE. Things like shopping, visiting the museum, exploring new places, cycling, walking, watching movies, people-watching, reading, thinking... whatever. As long as I'm doing something that makes me happy. As long as I'm spending some alone quality time.
This is a journey I think I need to take to find myself again, to start loving myself again.
So let this journey begin!
I might just very well document my ME-DAYs journey here. =)=)
Activity for 1st ME-DAY: Visiting the National Art Museum! =) |

I want this song to be played during my funeral.
I was a little girl
alone in my little world
who dreamed of a little home for me.
I played pretend between the trees,
and fed my houseguests bark and leaves,
and laughed in my pretty bed of green.
I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest swing.
I had a dream.
Long walks in the dark
through woods grown behind the park,
I asked God who I'm supposed to be.
The stars smiled down on me,
God answered in silent reverie.
I said a prayer and fell asleep.
I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest tree.
I had a dream.
Now I'm old and feeling grey.
I don't know what's left to say
about this life I'm willing to leave.
I lived it full and I lived it well,
there's many tales I've lived to tell.
I'm ready now, I'm ready now,
I'm ready now to fly from the highest wing.
I had a dream

It's been a while. I haven't forgotten this place. I just simply don't know what to write.
I need some change simply because it's getting hard to breathe.
I want to travel, to leave here for awhile.
When I say travel I mean really travel. Not to work.
So don't tell me that I would be able to leave here for Shanghai in a year's time.
That's different. That is work.
I need some time for myself.
Without my mum.
I. Need. To. Get. Away.
Soon. |

Yes I know. I was the one who said that Twitter is dumb. And yet now I've succumbed and joined Twitter. Mainly because SHEENA forced me too... I have to join in order to see her tweets... so... oh well.

| breathe... |
[Mar. 14th, 2009|01:38 pm] |
So it wasn't that bad...
I knew how to do the questions...
I remembered the German terms...
I managed to compose a rather decent melody (at least in my opinion =X)...
Now... it's just hoping for the best...
And I can now breathe. Phew.
Seriously... I've never been so nervous about any other exam before. I was literally a bundle of nerves. And seeing all those young little kids taking the exam with me doesn't help. Really. Makes me feel damn old and I'm not even 21 yet.
Bleh. |

I don't know where I'm heading just yet because right now, everything seems quite wrong. For that, I have no one to blame but myself. Eventually, the path will appear, like it always does. The only problem would be whether it is going to be the right one.
I'm tired. Did I mention that?
Can I have a holiday please? Maybe travel alone (which is unlikely because my mum would definitely not allow, citing my condition as a reason), or with a companion (who is not my mum).
I know I'm not good with people. Which is such an irony since I'm a communication student. But things always happen that way doesn't it? The world is full of ironies. And yes. I'm not good with people. Because I'm too straightforward and sometimes come across as being too aggressive. Although I have no ill meaning intentions (like I've said before, if I have the intention to be mean and hurt you, I would say it to your face. if not, i really don't mean to do so), but people like harmony and not aggressiveness I guess. So I hurt or offend people unwittingly. And that sucks. Maybe that's why only little kids like me. Because when I'm with little kids, I'm not aggressive. And little kids can take straightforwardness better because they themselves are straightforward too. And my tone. Yes I know my tone doesn't always sound friendly and nice.
Ok. Maybe I should just shut up from now on.
Keep your comments and thoughts to yourself, Alethea.
Be nice. |
