Best Tuesday everrrrrrr.

Today's been such a bore though. Waiting at the doc's= worst waste of time.

Cadeau

Was gifted a bag by Dy's grandparents from their trip to Australia.
Today I chanced upon it on the web and found it to be

1. more costly than my Longchamp/ thereabout
   
2. named a "hobo" bag.

Well,
colour me shocked.

The bf would definitely approve of the name though. Hobo bags for hobos!

Raison d'etre

Wine. (Chadonnay in particular)
Hot showers after strenuous gym sessions.
Magazines...
Pancake dates. Dates with my bestfriend. Maybe pancake dates with my bestfriend.
New technology. And then buying the older, cheaper ones (that are easier to handle)
Buying new clothes. Wearing them.
Dark nails.
Tea. Coffee. Chocolate-anything, except on its own.
Possibility of passing exams.

I'm happy!

Get a Clue

When I have no money, I can't stop thinking about what I want... but cannot buy.
When I have money, I can't think of what I want and can now buy.



Tomorrow,
maybe even the super-powered will succumb.

Things that keep me positive

These days...





Otherwise life's been pretty... tragic.

Today's the 10th of October (10th month), year 2010.
These things don't usually fascinate me, but thought I'd mark it with a post anyway.

I hope I pull through this coming week without breaking down.

L'alcool

Today in French class, we (I) learnt the importance of articulation.

Me: ...On boit l'alcool (we drink alcohol)
Prof: L-ah-coal?
Me: ... L-ah-coal...
Prof: La colle is not alcohol. La colle is glue. We don't drink glue
(Class laughs)
Me: ):

I have work due in 39 hours. I'm not prepared.
I need sleep.

Die.

Distractions

Trying to read my (already condensed) readings on Max Weber, for the fifth time now.

But for now, some rather welcomed distractions:



(Via Knighttcat, via tommy ton for style.com)


#1 heather grey makes my heart dance
#2 makes me wonder if my in-between hair needs to be fixed
#3 i'd love that balenciaga clutch... the sight of leather reminds me of Italy. funny how little memories left of that place I have in my little brain now.

I should be sleeping now, but I'm happy to report that gym session #2 has been successful (today)!
Trying to get into a healthy regime of sorts, which probably means I should sleep now!

We Break Then We Build

(Via Wildfox)

If I had a choice, I would spend the whole day reading The Selby in bed. Maybe also Wildfox.
Maybe dismantle my sister's bed and shift it back to her room so I can have all the space to myself again! Maybe soon. This one I promise.

But I had some better things to do today.
Like, shaking myself awake in the morning (Sunday morning, at that) to go to the gym with Hazel. Run on the threadmill instead of lying comatose on my warm comfy bed. Have lunch with the boyfriend. Nap while he watches The Office.
Productivity takes on different definitions in different contexts. I'd say I'm pretty darn productive today.

Now that we're three quarters into the year, I've finally decided to set some long-term goals instead of blinding diving into impulsive decisions. For one, lose the Freshman Fifteen. Not that I've gained exactly fifteen pounds in my freshman year, but still. Wake up earlier to fight for space in the library to do some readings. And also to cut down on cab rides.
Not quite inspiring I know. But baby steps... baby steps.

I have less than fourteen days left till my first big project this term would be due. Time to think...

Till then!

Entropy

Been completely overeating. GROSS.

Tomorrow I gym.

Potions + Baubles

Obviously bored. And my camera is out of focus.
In clockwise direction: Some expensive organic bulgarian rosewater, l'eau des jardins (if only my garden smelt like that!), semi-new necklace which is beginning to tarnish, some ordinary BIC lighter from France (haha, as if it made any difference), watch (my birthday present two years ago?)

Almost went downstairs to get the papers thinking that Urban's in the issue... until I realized it was only Thursday. Thursdays are beginning to feel like Fridays. Wonder why?

Been spending too much lately. My new (homeless looking) maxi dress came in the mail. Yay for more weird stares in school.

I need to think of better things to do. Now.

Last weekend...


Had some good fun.

Time to hit the books again!

This week

Hahaha.

WooOOooo

I had a really good day today, despite the mere four hours of shut-eye I had.

I am/have now:

• celebrated my first Hari Raya proper
• ventured into Simei/ Tampines proper
• more or less done with Karl Marx (WEEK TWO...)
• soon-to-be proud owner of a pair of Toms (courtesy of the boyfriend)
• 100% satisfied

That said,
I promised myself this afternoon that there will be no supper tonight, having stuffed myself to the brim the whole day through...
but (you know there's always a but) as I exited the shower, teeth brushed and everything, my mom Just had to be done warming up braised meat from the morning. Just had to.
With eggs. And beancurd.
And she happens to make atrociously delicious braised meat. Tres manifique.
So.
Here I am, with half a bowl of braised meat and rice left.


Kill me.

Dated photos

Favourite food:

(Dy made this! Om nom.)


Favourite boy:



(Finally got his Sperry shoes today! He's totally faking the scowl.)


Teehee. x

Food for thought

We can never be honest and objective. Truth be told, we are all inner hedonists. Everyone loves a pretty thing. Everyone loves a sweetened word. Everyone is selfish.

They can say what they want. She's mean because she's fat. She's dumb because she's pretty.
They think they are the best, but they know they aren't.

Honestly, though?
We are All pathetic.

Stabbing someone because he's hurting someone else will never be justifiable.

Had meatloaf today. With sausages. Caramelized sausages.
It's like Christmas morning, three months early.

I've been all about food lately.
So much for dieting.

Who cares? I'm happy. That's all that counts. x

This is True

Happy 2.11 (and one day!)

Lost

--

I'm having a very bad craving for aglio e olio now, especially after having a disappointing plate of vongole pasta + chinese noodles. Even though my stomach is bursting at the seams.
I don't like the feeling of going to bed dissatisfied ):

Fix me

So you think you can dance - Fix you - Robert & Allison from Laura U on Vimeo.

This gave me the shudders. Really amazing.

Mad Pride

I like fixing things.

Cleaning dirty clothes. Assembling mess into whole. Turning a blank piece of writing pad into a lengthy piece of argument.

Try as I might, the irony is,
I can't fix myself.

Yesterday

Saturday was awesome!



My boyfriend took forever in the headphone shop and came out with nothing... ): The shopkeeper (?) felt sorry for me and gave me a yo-yo. Not like I know how to play but it's so cute hahaha.


Then we trekked down to *scape for Once Upon a Milkshake under the recommendation of my (now ex-)colleague. Om nom.

It was also then that it occurred to me that I might be too old for flea markets overcrowded with teens half a decade younger now.
The audacity of the thought.







French for dinner... The confit was a great disappointment ):

Un petit peu de la creme brulee...


& I got a present... (for no good reason at all, also the best kind of presents)!

These days have been semi-productive. Made new spectacles, among other stuff. I should be (s0) happy.


Over and out! xx

Delirious

Yesterday was my last day of work.



Tomorrow I'm going back to work again.
This does not quite compute.

Werk it

GEEK RINGS ALL!


Today I slogged my ass off for 10 hours in the office. Hence the puny eyes and puffy cheeks.
Tomorrow will be TWELVE HOURS. That's half a day. In the office.
I think I will be wearing my pyjamas.

These days have been good. Couldn't ask for any better.
Till then.. xx

Watch Me Burn

I like doing the same things over and over because I like the way I don't have to think about how things might turn out differently.

I also like going to work in the rain.
Life is good.
Let's carry on.

He's tired

I spent way too much money lately.

This was Saturday:


This week I have nothing to look forward to except picking clothes out for work, watching HIMYM on the way to work, receiving odd parcels in my mailbox (or not, if there is nobody home to collect them), and thinking of ways to save money. Or thinking of ways to not spend money.

So this is what is like to be an old and lonely cat lady...

Short stint

4 hours of sleep + $16.60 taxi fare was completely worth it.
My weekday splurges are now justified.

Current mission: Find clothes that are versatile enough for work and school.

SIBLINGS SUCK

Me: You have to pay me for wearing my tights because you will spoil them.
Sis: I give you a new product leh.
Sis: LOOSE.

It took me a while to get it.

Midweek crisis

I'm still alive...!
