More Than Words Can Say

This is me. A little overdosed on Green Tea, with Vodka.

Anyways.

Like I said, I am happy today. And nothing is going to change that.

Switchfoot tmr!

My playlist has 5 songs on repeat tonight:

Big Bang - Tonight

After School - Shampoo

Beyonce - Halo

Rainbow - To Me

Brown Eyed Girls - Sign

My right hand is sore. From playing badminton with the lil bro today.

Back to my photo. What can you tell from it (or not)? Okay, no need to over-think it. I'll tell you.

1. I haven't been sailing for at least 2 months now. I don't miss it as much as I would have thought I would.
   
   A friend once asked, "Why do you sail?"
   Is it a) Because of the boys?
   Or b) Because of the parties?
   
   My answer then was, "Neither, I just like it."
   
   Now that I think about it, my answer is similar with a slight twist. Neither, it simply became part of my identity so I just kept at it.
   
   
2. Who Needs A Prince. Is the name of my nail polish in the picture. From OPI.
   
   Essentially, every girl needs wants a prince. Let's be honest.
   
   
3. 5th of June is 36 days away. And I'll be 23!
   
   
4. I love Sushi...
   
   
5. I am a huge fan of Blogthings. And the outcome of that quiz, is as follow...

You Are Waffle Fries

You are independent and intelligent. You have an amazing sense of humor. You're always seeing the lighter side of life. You love to play! You are at the same time ambitious and disciplined. You have the makings of an accomplished artist. You know how to balance creativity and practicality. You make your dreams a reality.

What Kind of French Fries Are You?

Blogthings: Learn Something Surprising About Yourself

I hope I wake up for church tmr... :))

Ai Is A Happy Girl Today

For a couple of reasons.

The first of which is definitely from the major haul from Diva today. Uber happy!

And, mommy bought me the new Pantene Avacado shampoo to try, also super happy.

I need to go feed my doggie, poor doggie hasn't had dinner yet.

Talk soon! <3

Thank God It's Friday

Believe it or not.

I actually purposely stayed up,

just so that I could post this as TGIF! :))

Have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend everyone!

"Does It Get Any Better", I Wonder

I was told today that people don't get me. They don't get what I say sometimes.

Sometimes, I too don't know what I say.

I sprout too much nonsense without thinking.

That needs to change.

I Am Only A Small Bit of The Big Picture

When I think of it this way, I feel less significant, but it also makes me realize that my problems, are not as big as I think they are.

I really like my previous post. If you haven't read it, please scroll down and read it now.

Have a great remaining half to the week people.

Love!

2 Years Ago, 2 Years Later

This was the exact same place, same awesome people - well, majority of the same awesome people, some new faces meaning new friendships, yay!

I missed the BBQ last time, made it this time. It was amazingly delicious.

The weather was great, the company was great, the atmosphere was slightly more mellow this time, maybe it's because we're all 2 years older more mature from before. Hah!

To be honest, I was thinking quite a bit throughout the trip. Since Mike created the "If you talk about work you're gonna stay at Silverpark alone" deal, we actually did talk less about work. And that meant more silent periods where I let my mind wander..

The range of things that crossed my mind pretty much covers the full spectrum of who, how, when, what, and why in friendships, relationships, career, future, family, and life in general lah.

I don't know if it's jinx to say this or not but 2 years ago, we had 2 different sets of couples, who sadly are no longer together 2 years later. This year, we have 3 new sets of couples joining us. Ideally, we have another set of couple in our circle of friends, I sincerely believe her significant other would have made it if it wasn't because he's not in the country.

In any case, I pray and hope that these new relationships will grow stronger each passing day, that you'll love each other more and more, and that 2 years from now, we'll have wedding parties to attend! Hahaha. Okay, jokes aside.

With all my heart, I wish you guys only the best for your respective relationships! Amen.

As far as friendships goes, new ones are always welcomed, but it is the old ones that I very much treasure and cherish. Yes, we may not have similar personalities, yes, I might dislike what you have to say, yes, you snore damn loudly at night disturbing the peace and serenity but heck, I am glad that we're all friends, and this I dare say, that we will stand by each other come rain or shine..

:)) People say no man is an island, I cannot agree more. I always say, thanks for being my friend. I hope you know, that I mean it every single time I say it.

2 years ago, we were all complaining about school and assignments and lectures we liked or disliked. 2 years later, we've all moved on in seemingly different paths; some are working, some are still in school, some are very fortunately still enjoying life, one is going for an interview tomorrow! But the bottom line is, we've all got our lives to live. And who knows what the future holds!

Reminiscing can be such a sweet thing. If only I put more weight on the good memories then try to harp on what is not, or was not.

Those who didn't / couldn't make it for this trip, you are not forgotten.

You, are missed.

Am I A Goldfish?

At work, I am "notorious" for having a goldfish memory. So I came home and Googled it, in hopes of learning that it is not entirely a bad thing. Result here.

I think the people in the office meant I have 3 seconds worth of memory, not 3 months. And in the office, it does seem like the case. I keep forgetting things! Ugh.

But it's funny. Things I want to forget, I don't. Things I don't want to forget, I forget!

If only there's way to turn things around, it'd be brilliant.

Least I think goldfishes are relatively cute. Ha!

You Are Harmonious

You are a natural counselor. You listen well and give out good advice when needed. You are accommodating and peace-seeking. You do your best to make others happy. You love to celebrate, but your favorite parties are chill and low key. You strive to build close relationships. You are attracted to people of substance.

The Sushi Chopstick Test

The First Rule of Blogthings Is: You Don't Talk About Blogthings

Frasers, here we come!

Super Duper Sleepy

Okay, minus super duper. But I am sleepy. /yawn

Maybe I should just call it a day.

But I have this inkling that I'll end up tossing and turning in bed for a good amount of time before I actually fall asleep. And I super duper don't like tossing and turning in bed not being able to fall asleep.

And I am moderately irritated. Because I cannot find where I kept my new ChapSticks. I bought 3 of them the last time I was in the States and I cannot find a single one now. And they were from the pink ribbon series!

Tmr is casual Friday. No, hold on one sec'. IT IS FRIDAY tmr!

Yayyyyy! TGIF yo! :))

The Good and The Bad

So...

It's probably not possible that I came to a conclusion overnight. Yup, it is not. And while I say that I have decided, I probably will question my intent the first thing I wake up tomorrow morning. Or, maybe not first thing in the morning but once I have the time to let my thoughts wander, I most definitely will confuse myself all over again.

Anyhow.

People say that Geminis are notorious for being two faced or for having dual personalities because they are twins, essentially there are two of us who makes one, correct? Google it lah!

Daddy just came in and took over my laptop to search for some thing and totally ruined my train of thought. T__T

I was going to say... I really cannot remember what exactly was I going to say.

Pft. Anyway.

I have no idea why do I take things so seriously sometimes. Why do I complicated things. Why do I overthink certain things and get all upset. Meh.

From today on, I'll just take it easy, lightly, as it goes. Go with the flow, literally. I can imagine how much happier I'll be already.

Oh right! I had something to say about being a Choleric Sanguine human being but again, I totally cannot connect the dots right now. Phail.

This song is stuck in my head! :))

Home Sweet Home

I am back!

Hello from Sin City, Nevada

It's beautiful here. The weather is nice too. The people (majority) by far, are nice. The room is superb. I have a thing for fancy hotels, and according to my daddy, the only reason why I had wanted to work at a resort was so that I could stay at the suites. True.

Anyway. It's 12.10am here, so I will keep is short.

The famous advice that goes, "Think of the consequences before you say anything. And if you are not sure if you can be responsible for the consequence of what you are going to say, then don't say it. Keep it to yourself."

I am sure you all are familiar with it. Or, maybe not. Maybe I actually created that on my own. Haha!

I have tonnes of things I want to say. But I don't think I want to be responsible for the potential implications. So I rather not say them.

/defense mechanism

But because I always contradict myself. I'll say this.

I wish you were here.

Ah Choo! Ah Choo!!

I've been sneezing quite a bit today.

And that can only mean two things.

1. Somebody must be missing me a lot today or,

2. I am falling sick

I am thinking it's number 2. :(

My tummy has been playing weird tricks on me the past 2 days. But that's also probably due to all the junk I have been consuming. Serves me right, I totally agree.

And, I was hearing echoes in my ears yesterday. It was super annoying.

I hope despite all these signs, that I am NOT falling sick.

1. I hate being sick.

2. I HATE being sick.

Enough said.

Drinking green tea now, wonder if it'll help boost my immune system??

Z For ??

You Are the "Z" Block

You are somewhat high maintenance and picky. You don't mesh with the outside world easily, but when you've found your place, it's usually a perfect fit. You have strong beliefs, and it annoys you when other people don't agree with you. You are pretty demanding of people around you. Compromise is not something you think about. You know you may be hard to handle. People may love you or hate you, but you're not about to change.

What Tetris Block Are You?

Blogthings: Waste Time at Work!

Hohoho!

Take A Bow

:)))

Literally. *takes a bow*

Thank you, and congrats, and all the best..

<3

What A Great Feeling

It is not often that I go to bed at 2am the night before, wake up at 8 the next morning, feeling like it's going to be a great weekend...

:)))

Like I said, it's not often, not at all. It's rarely even the case I wake up at 8 on a weekend now, except for Sunday church, and secondly, I usually wake up telling myself to feel like it's going to be a great day / weekend.

See, so it is different! But, who is complaining.

Sometimes, I just really do not know what to say. And so I sprout nonsense. Sometimes I just need my alone time. So give me space. Sometimes I feel like I am behaving like a total bitch spoilt brat. If it's not too severe, let me be; if I am really seriously overdoing it, call me on it, I need to grow up.

My need for attention is bound to get me into trouble. Or "perceived" trouble so to speak. And perception, I have lately come to realize, is probably the most powerful human tool to date.

Hmmmm....

To a great weekend!

xoxo

TGIF, But More Than That

Yay, TGIF, it's the weekends again!!

Let's not get too excited okay Ai Li?

We've still got a day to go before Saturday.

Let's get past Friday first okay my dear?

End of monologue.

As the title says, I am super thankful it's Friday in a another hour or so, but more than that, it's also our convo weekend... *does a happy dance*

And this song, came to mind. It cannot get any more appropriate than now to dedicate this to all of us...

"Graduation (Friends Forever)"

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real blue
Stay at home talking on the telephone
And we would get so excitedand we'd get so scared
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels

As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
From whatever
We will still be
Friends Forever

So if we get the big jobs
And we make the big money
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels

La, la, la, la:
Yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la:
We will still be friends forever

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

Thank you all you guys and girls for the awesome friendship, for the awesome memories, for all the wonderful experiences, for all the support, for all the love, for all the tears and hardwork and sweat...

Last but not least,

Congratulations to us!

Past 12 Midnight, Hello Wednesday

I just blow dried my hair. Used the Apricot conditioner today, smells real nice. :))

I decided to break some rules today, more like yesterday though.

For instance, I used the Morning Essence Leave on Treatment spray for night time.

And I am super loving the combo of the sweet scent from the conditioner, the texture of the spray plus the effect of blow-drying the hair.

And. I had rice for dinner.

Super tired. Was supposed to get some work done but heck it lah.

Really wants to go shopping. I can only imagine the list of to-buy's... Mom got me Burt Bee's balmie, can't wait to try it out!

Needs a new playlist. Shuffled until Katherine McPhee and Zachery Levi's duet, Terrified was playing.

Good night you all. It's mid week, again! :))

One Of These Days

I am going to fall off my chair and break a bone.

YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO WISH THAT THAT'LL HAPPEN FOR REAL.

Go and touch wood now if you were secretly wishing for it to happen.

Everytime I bend backwards, I hear my bones go "Craaaa-aack". Sounds freaking scary but after every stretch, it feels so good!

Trivia time...

I can bend backwards into a bridge from a standing position.

(Does the sentence make any sense?)

I spent a good half an hour answering quizzes on Blogthings earlier. Found some new ones to play with. I am not sharing them because I answered at least 10 of them and all 10 had returned with favorable responses so I didn't exactly want to cloud your Sunday read with a massive Blogthings update and I couldn't pick which to post out of the 10 either.

Did you notice the layout looks a little different? :)

Imperfection Is Sometimes Just Perfect

Just saying.

P/s: To those whom I said good night to, I really actually did go to bed!

But as my head hit the pillow. Those words sprung to my mind and I couldn't resist the urge to share it immediately.

So I climbed out of bed, turn on my lappie, and wrote this.

Now that I am done writing it, good night, again! <3
