So i promised Cher Yilin that i would post about the sleepover and the night out at the Night Safari :D HAHA Thesleepoverwith the girls was awesome cause we really did try our best to knock the slumber out of 'slumber party' but it proved an impossible feat at 6am for Su and I but Yilin and Ainslie conked out earlier! Then we ended up waking at 10am for brekkiefasty. But it was fun 'cause Su and I went, uh, online window shopping for dresses we'd be able to afford maybe ten years down the road. But even so we'd still feel a huge, fat PINCH! D&G, here we come :) I still have Su's promise to keep haha. Oh and we were left wondering why the prices of similar dresses could range from idk 28 american dollars to idk 2000 freakin' pounds. Just because they placed a 'Oscar de la Renta' tag which can't be seen. Welcome to this world. Oh i've got to add the fact that Cher Yilin put us through the torment of listening to Rain acting bad and going 'Bad Boy' a million trillion gazillion times! And her attempts at trying to emulate him but, uh, yeah still being Yilin :D LOVE YOU YILIN! JUST THE WAY YOU ARE! Ahaha but it was what made it fun as well la. And i do love midnight snacking, as much as i feel guilty after it. Ainslie and Kaiting joined us later after breakfast which was lovely because WE MADE IT! Simple Sandwiches and Homemade Iced Lemon Tea :D And we ate (omg) DARK CHOCOLATE TIM TAMS IN HOT MILO. Sinful indulgence, won't you say? We tried to study after that but MY DEAR FRIENDS MADE THOSE FEW MINUTES HELL. >:( But as your BFF i forgive all of you :) because IT'S NOT TRUE ANYWAY! gross, please. Ghosts of girlfriends past was alright i guess, but not as sweet as i wanted it to be ): Mainly because Matt whatchamacallhim was so not charming and so not hot. It would have made a world of a difference, seriously. Night Safari! Thank God it wasn't as awkward as i thought it would be. They are quite nice people i guess, being friendly and all! Obviously much thanks to Yilin and Ainslie for creating much of the fun and being the jokes :D HAHAH and i still want to kidnap that mousedeer and the sugar glider. Otters too :) Adorable things, they are. Although a tad smelly. (I won't deny it, Ant) Yilin became a Magar HAHA (mugger) poor girl. One depressing thing was that we didn't get to see the animal show which i really wanted to see and was actually the main reason i agreed to go! Oh well.
Father's Day :) I spent like 6 hours of the day making my pop's card ahah so obviously studying was out of the question! But it really paid off because i must say i am quite satisfied with how it turned out! Although my eyesight would've probably already increased by 50. The dinner, as always was awesome cause the island table in the kitchen was widespread with plates and plates of the dads' favourite (unhealthy!!) food! Haha but it's tradition i guess! The cousins played Mad Gab in the patio which really made us go mad with competitiveness and roaring with laughter over how stupid everyone sounded. The oldies were indoors watching 'Love' HAHA. Adorable. Later after Mad Gab we revisited our childhood game - Down By the Bank - and ended up being SO incredibly and catergorically amazed at how we could spend an entire night playing this game and going 'EWWW' at each other. And all the night snacks and funny punishments! Roll back time, if you will :D And Here's a better picture of Truffle. HAHA. And the cousin and the brother acting cool. After Julian and Marcus left. All the emo guitar playing people. Haha. Alright! Gotta go play the Game of Life with Breano and Nickylooloo! Bryan's staying over, yay :)
Adios Amigos, xo!
Down by the banks of the Hanky Panky Where the bullfrog leaps from bank to bank saying "Hip! Hop! Hippety Hop! Who's gonna land in the cow's plop?" Not me, not you, not me, not you Not me, not you, not me, not you But it's gonna gonna gonna gonna be YOU! ♥ Love it.
Alright, i'll be honest. That May post was actually posted up yesterday. Just that it was kept stowed away in the private category for that period of time. But anyway, i've just had the urge to return to blogging maybe just for fun. Today really was quite an interesting day, though. So maybe i really did have to post about it :D Catherine the crazy came up with the idea of eating and making pancakes for breakfast, after tuition on friday. We decided to meet up for jogging (or should i just say walking) at Macritchie, before we sped to her house to make spiced french toast and pancakes! The idea somehow bloomed into a picnic under the Frangipani tree just down the hill from her house in Faber :) Bryan the prat woke up late but made it in time to ruin the pancakes he cooked HAHA. fine, mine weren't any better but what the hell i ate it anyway! French toasts smelt of lovely, decadent cinnamon, i can never get sick of it. Oh yes not forgetting aunty anne's very own strawberry tart with the loveliest strawberry jam topping that was completely delightful! Blessed people, they are! Time to get my sister away from her bed of roses and into the kitchen, eh? (Hah, like that'll work) We met pretty Ninn! and her little cat. He has a french name so i shan't bother trying to spell it out. And she's an awfully cute french girl who's daring enough to walk her own tightrope her father made for her. And her cat was busy bothering Cappuccino the rabbit while she put the metal pole thing together with Catherine! And before you know it we're rambutan-tree-plucking! (i plucked that!) HAHA. yeah there's one right between May's and Ninn's houses and the rambutans really are quite sweet! And besides, it's not like you go rambutan plucking everyday right? The picnic was wonderful! After that we had to get down to business and S T U D Y. What else? But here's the surprise. Bryan and I were introduced to May's family's SECRET ROOM. It was so exciting i fell in love with it. It has ike a couch and the works. Telly, DVD player, Tables for work, amazing. HAHA i'm still amused. But yeah it was quite productive on my part, while Carole King sang in the background, along with the A lot like Love soundtrack and another i can't remember what. Then lunch was back at her house while we exchanged some gossips HAHA on facebook (what else?) and you ask me why i don't have facebook? Awful. Cut to the chase, I'VE GOT A NEW FRIEND! Meet Truffle: Okay that isn't a very good picture but yeah my point is he is so bloody adorable.My little cousin named it! He came from New Zealand, muchos gracias to my dear cousins who went there and did all the adrenaline pumping activities! We watched their videos of them bungy jumping and jet skiing and all that! And another just came back from G-R-E-E-C-E. Who goes to Greece man? Lifetime destination, hah.
Alright then, gotta wake up grotesquely early tomorrow. Fathers' Day gathering at my house tomorrow! Whee. I miss ♥Prison Break♥, i really really really do ): (♥ Wentworth wentworth wentworth!♥) He gives women the glint of hope that chivalry is still alive. Aww. HAH. Oh i watched the Hunchback of Notre Dame yesterday and although it still is a little too scary to be a children's classic, Esmeralda is admirable, as is Quasimodo! Loved it. The songs are really not too bad either! Su su, we'll get those dresses one day! HAHA, one day. Right, 'one day' just reminds me all the more of Prison Break, bleep it. Grah.
Bye then! xo.
And it's the day we do the things that we deplore On the other three hundred and sixty-four Once a year we love to drop in Where the beer is never stoppin' For the chance to pop some popinjay And pick a king who'll put the "top" in Topsy Turvy Day! Mad and crazy, upsy-daisy, Topsy Turvy Day! ♥
He's got lines on his face, they tell the story of his pain
HAHA alright fine I did say I wanted to come back permanently, or at least MORE frequently but obviously I've got a problem keeping my appointments with my sad sad xanga. Guilty as charged, but who's charging anyway? Why I'm back, idk. But I guess it's cause I really have to proclaim how I'm actually feeling UTTERLY lost and have been for the past hours. Can you believe it, feeling lost even after slacking the last few days away? Should have treasured these free moments more shouldn't I? Anyway, Clare's life has been pretty hectic no thanks to campaigning but out of it came a lot of marvelous stuff like meeting Melvin, Leonard and Steph haha great campaign mates and MANY OTHERS i can't believe i was sceptic about trying for council! But yay although the guys are asses, and Melvin or Leonard if you guys are reading this YEAH TAKE THAT. Alrighty now, the main probable reason i'm here: To rave. Duh. XMEN FTW! HAHAHA. Yeah, you guessed it i just watched Xmen which obviously results in the overflowing fervour for that movie or whatchamacallit. Always been a fan of it and watching it today with the just as crazy cousins reminded me all the more of why i loved it! Gotta love Jean Grey and Scott Hot Summers :D Is it any coincidence that he fired red laser out of his eyes. Zomg, winner. And the X1 Miss Grey is so pretty it only makes me feel woooorse. I need sharp features and lovely eyes, now. Su and i talked about, stuff. HAHA TGIF TTM. :D What do guys talk about i wonder. Being a girl is so much more interesting cause you get to talk about haha, STUFF. VS, Fats, Guys, you know. Girl Things :D AHAAHHA. This is why i need a slumber party. sushi party, anything. We have SO much to do but obviously school curtails everything. Urgh. One month to June, come on. Yay for Prison Break and Gossip Girl getting back better than before. Now i feel as if the Mid years have passed already. I really have nothing to do, omg.
RIGHT i'm going to haha see houses.
xo, see you!
Tomorrow comes, Sorrow becomes his soul mate The damage is done, the prodigal son is too late Old doors are closed but he's always open To relive time in his mind Oh, Billy. ♥
Omg ttm i just deleted a long post from 28th JAN, not even feb, which unfortunately never made it to the world wide web. Aww. Moving on, What's been happening in Clare's life (just so Ainslie will not bother her about not being able to know about Clare's sad life) (did that sound melancholic or what. gross, i hate that word) : 1. I can't remember. Maybe that's why i actually bothered to keep a xanga and update it everyday (well, almost), just so i could keep every bitty detail of my life before any of it got thrust out my mind by Monster Maths, which i swear i WILL fail sooner rather than later. Who's to blame i shall not say. Anyway, i think i better come back more often before all i'm left with is mush. I think reading has taken a toll on my mood :/ No wait, reading JODI PICOULT books because it's so thought-provoking. Hah, i gotta stop it. Or maybe i'm just being stuuupid right now. SSTOOP IT. HAHAHAHAHAH. k i'm back! Oh now i remember something: Baking with the cousins, Doing Matt's card with the cousins and everything with the Cousins! Haha. There was also cam-whoring with the usual Tangos and Nick. Always keep your cameras away from Catherine Tang. Righto, so i went out with my darling crazy friends on thursday? I think it was thursday. OMG Memorylapsettm. Haha Hotel for Dogs was pretty sweet :D And yeah it was so refreshing to be around them of course, after all what are bestfriends for! We ate and we ate and we ate and we watched and we barely studied HAHA. We just complained about failing. And we said how we needed a Sushi Party. We're uprading, people. I need to just waste one whole day away without worrying about schoolwork! JUNEJUNEJUNE, it seems so far away. we shall have it all the same, alrighty? WHOOP! Right here ends Clare's unhappening life. Save for the above mentioned. Oh and CJ's fine. My class is fine and quite funny actually, with my multinational sistas. Fine fine fine :D and only to kill it all is projects. Nip/Tuck is interesting and yes Clare hasn't turned away from shows. Ugh. I need to stop being fat too ): JUNE PARTY PARTY PARTY PLEASE. i love my besties and i love my family and i love my class (most of it). ooh, i love Blair Waldorf. She's a winner. I hate GG though, it makes me feel horridly sporridly idon'tevenwanttosayitbutSuunderstands. (which also applies to the VS angels but that's a different matter) And omg it makes me see how boring Singapore is too ): Where are all the myriads of trenchcoats and pretty bags and gorgeous boots? Oh wait, that's cause we only have s-u-m-m-e-r and ffreakinbts. spell b-o-r-i-n-g, please. Slumdog's marvelous, though a tad sad! But the storyline and music are wonderful and the kids are plain adorable. If you haven't already watched it, you've gotta cause it totally deserved every Oscar it got! Freida Pinto is gorgeous though the guy isn't the most fit, haha. I think lots of Indians are pretty, actually. Lucky people. Toodles, off to Maths.
xo, Clare the Currently Cynical
