you know work isn't going to be boring when someone brings her 7 year old daughter to work! (:

Ting Xuan is absolutely adorable! she reminds me just how much i love to be around kids and i would like to think that they love to be around me too. (i am not delusional)

it's funny to observe how initially she starts off being really shy but after she warms up to the idea of you, you can totally see the mischievous side of her as she starts to follow you everywhere. it's like one moment, you are a stranger and the next, you are her big sister/best friend.


her inquisitiveness is amazing. she showed me how a calculator is not just a calculator, how a paper clip does more than just clip pieces of paper together... it's like seeing the whole world around you move (sometimes literally, because she can be quite destructive)



funniest part of having her in the office:

as her mum and i got rather busy. her mum was answering a call and i was busy typing out an invoice, i failed to notice her picking up the extension line next to me.
i was absolutely horrified when she 'HELLOOOOO' into the phone while her mum was talking to the customer on the line.

kids (:


chiewyee says (12:58 PM):
my boyfriend is a heartless pig
Xavier says (12:59 PM):
he loves you though
thats pretty nice


don't love me if all you ever do is try to change me into another person and make me miserable in the process. I am who I am, and if you can't accept that, there is nothing that I or you for that matter can do.

and honestly, what is so wrong about me? maybe if you start seeing things from my perspective, you will realise that I am already trying very hard to keep up with your unattainable expectations.




THIS IS HUGE. i mean the fact that i completed the jigsaw puzzle, not the actual size of the puzzle...

i have had many jigsaw puzzles before but they are never ever completed because i am really terrible at it. This is a pity because i have two sets of puzzles waiting for me to actually sort them out and frame them. They are hidden deep in the closet with varying degrees of completion as we speak.

i must say i felt like i won a major do or die battle when i completed this particular one. just in time for christmas nonetheless.

actually maybe the fact that it was a 130 piece puzzle played a huge part in my ability to complete it haha! crap




this is truly the most disturbing video i have worked on for this year.

SOP XMAS THIS SATURDAY!!!
my lovely secret exchange partner, i hope my gift is lovely.

dan dan da man says (4:35 PM):
at this particular instant in time
i wish some girl would come along like in those shows n pick me up instead
wouldnt that be a dream.
i'd fall head over heels for her.

chiewyee says (4:36 PM):
love is never a dream
it's a painful memory that is ongoing

dan dan da man says (4:36 PM):
hahaha
wa
got so emo not.
i thot i was the lucas here

chiewyee says (4:37 PM):
there's a inner lucas in everyone
i am afraid to say


here's how a typical jjqca sleepover would be:

for starters, swimming. otherwise known as soaking in the pool with googles on.



terrorizing some random little girl who happens to be in the pool is optional.
followed by a 15min stay in the toilet sauna that resulted in an unfortunate revealing of something close to jaslyn's heart. qiling and i are traumatised till this day.
now we have two dramas that unfolded because of the sauna, first jin jen fainting years ago(which we remember and never let her forget) and now this.


next up, the newest addition to our sleepover! KARAOKE.
funny how qiling and jas thought that i would hate it, but in the end, i was the most determined and enthusiastic one of them all.

the black parade is officially my favourite karaoke song ever.
qiling's favourite would be anything beyonce.
how do i know this?
because i quote,

qiling (after singing listen): OMG, I AM BEYONCE.

how she can say that with an earnest and straight face is beyond me.

KFC is like a must.

this is them singing a very old chinese classic. i am amused at the startling contrast of qiling's pained expression and jaslyn's chinese new year lion dance behaviour.

the climax of our sleepovers are definitely the manicures and pedicures.
our manicures/pedicures typically last say 3 hours at least. especially if jaslyn is the one doing it.
usually throughout the mani/pedi session, you will hear alot of 'JIN JEN/ any other person that is free WOULD YOU BE SO KIND...'



lastly, sleeping arrangements would be decided. usually we fight over who gets to sleep with qiling for the night.

this time, the 'lucky' person was jaslyn :)

and then we sleep.
or at least, jin jen and i did. the other two had a counseling session all the way till 5 plus.
i know because they woke me up at 5 plus before going to sleep.



Laughter is truly my way of coping.

the whining about not wanting to see a doctor followed by a two hours (possibly more) wait for the doctor resulted in me being one hell of a feverish wreck that cannot for the love of God stop laughing.

i spent the entire two hours talking non stop to woeilin.
i behaved as if once i stop talking, i would slip into a coma.
honestly i don't know how woeilin put up with me.

at some point, i remembered mumbling something about suing the doctor if i die waiting.

"I WILL SUE THEM WITH EVERYTHING I HAVE!!!!!"
says chiewyee with fever.

usually i am more civilised, but having a high fever does things to your brain.

when it was FINALLY my turn, i stood up and almost came crashing down, because i sat so long that my right leg was now numb and incapable of supporting any weight.
so i practically dragged and laughed myself into the consultation room.

trust me, the doctor was amused.

he wasn't even taking me seriously until he measured my temperature.

40.3degrees celsius

woeilin and the doctor started talking about how i don't look sick even when i have such a high fever while i sat there waiting for God to heal me.

doctor: you need a jab.
me: OMG PAIN OR NOT?
doctor: ok, like ant bite
me: hahaha omg!
me: where are you going to inject?
doctor: arm or butt?
me: er arm?

i swear the entire time he was trying to insert the needle, i kept on laughing and laughing, stopping only to exclaim 'OMG PAIN HAHAHA'

i laughed so loud the entire clinic can hear.

and this is not the end of the story.

when i got home, i realised i was allergic to the jab, and my eyelids swelled themselves into non-existence. those were horrible times, i couldn't even look at myself in the mirror haha.

thankfully, all's well now and my double eyelids are back.
now we all know if someone wants to kill me, they can try to overdose me with Nurofen.



i was never a fan of apple, especially after my attempted apple detox diet left me with severe headaches and a very tired jaw from all that crunching.

yes i am extremely lazy. Just looking at an apple makes me feel exhausted at the thought of having to crunch my way through.

but all that is going to change.

rather i mean it HAS TO CHANGE.

Today marks post-exam day 1 and also post-visit-to-the-clinic.


with regards to how i feel with no exams, let me say i am just relieved. My first thought waking up today was THANK GOD I DON'T HAVE TO STUDY. i think i slept pretty well last night, though there was certain DISCOMFORT due to unforeseen circumstances.

i declare this year the sickest year of my life, and when i say sick, i really mean it literally.
my body has the worst timing to fail me.




it's ok if you don't know what we are talking about.
that is not the point.
the point is i am a genius.
thankyouverymuch :D
