Just got back from a warm cosy party at the Liang residence. Mel the usual chirpy mama did a great job of organising her 21st! Her entire family was there and a few good friends so as I said, it was really cosy. : )

HAPPY 21st BABE!!!! I hope she remains a princess for as long as I know her : )

Her theme was, retro. Hahaha thank god I msged her to confirm before turning up. Because if she really insisted retro I would have had to turn up in my fashion disaster flower power skirt. But in the end she said bright colours so I turned up in sweet yellow!

I'm tired. 3 more days to the final sweeeeet release.

Time off to study for the exams also equates time to plan for the holidays in between short dreams of a carefree me in somewhere (ironically with my books in front of me).

But anyway, this coming holidays is going to be a blast.

Because... the female population of my family and miss chow have just signed up for an amore fitness package! Which means unlimited access to all classes for a month, at a steal of 58 bucks and best of all, it's at Jurong Point. : ) : ) : ) So we're all gonna be trim and fit! I hope. Haha well I've been browsing through their program phamplets and most of the classes sound like good fun. It's gonna thus be a month of jumping and breathing.

Well other than that upcoming events include a trip to KL for grandma's birthday. Plans for a haircut and spot of shopping have also been set : ) Then a 3 day chalet retreat. This is before the fitness package kicks off and before I know it I think May would have flown by! Need to find some time to get some moolah from ushering too man.

I've also got quite a few drama serials waiting for me to go finish them off, and many many many plans have been set to get ideas that were set months back turned into reality. I'm so hyped up about the upcoming hols now. Hurhurhur

Well anyway, here's something which aps and i look at quite often, just to make ourselves happy. hahaha! It is paradise that is attainable. : ) Click here.

Cooking makes me happy : )

Though I only manage those super easy ones, but it makes me smile to be able to whip up something edible! So yesternight I churned out some pan-friend luncheon meats and veges to go along with the plain porridge and it tasted great. Feeling inspired I decided to go check out some recipes online so as to churn out more complex stuff in the future. Wahaha will pose the pics up if they come out successful!

Anyway everyday I try to perk myself up. Be it giving myself a short break from studying by just plonking on the couch and feasting on some chips or going out for a short meet-up. Yay it keeps my spirits up and lets me think about happy things.

So let's all NOW go and do something that we like for at least 5 minutes, think of happy things, then come back to study. Heeheehee.

I'm super duper into the want of going skydiving at the moment. Anyone wants to join me!!?? But no money no talk right. Damn.

2 spanking tickets to watch Grease. YAHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1 slapping email to collect my dreaded essay tomorrow. Worried.

It's tuesday. Half the nie population has already gained complete freedom and have gone somewhere to have a mini celebration. Congrats peeps : )

I've just gotten over one country. Yea the easiest one just to kickstart the ardous process of generating notes. Hurhurhur. Anyway I feel quite bored though, so I decided to watch some animal planet whilst having lunch and oh man its damn interesting!

I watched this orphan baby polar bear called inuksha being taken care of in the Toronto Zoo before being transported to another place where he is introduced to 2 other female polar bears who are also orphans. Then they start clawing each other when they first meet because they are scared. Damn cute.

My ulcer has gotten much better over the past 2 days with constane listerine washes. Haha maybe my mouth has too much bacteria. Urrgggghhh.

Heading back to my notes now then. Toods.

The walk to his house after dinner was beautiful. There was a full arc rainbow that streaked right across the grey-ish sky. Turning towards the left direction the colour of the sky was a magnificent orange instead with some grey-ish swirls within. Colour of the setting sun and we walked in that direction. I was awed by this rare sky colour oddity and its prettiness within.

Then I imagined myself walking home with my husband in the future. How lovely it would be walking under an awesome coloured sky hand in hand with your love. : ) Awww.

Pity I was handling a bag of groceries and my boyfriend unfortunately did not share the same sentiments about the pretty sky. But he will in due time. : )

Today was planned out to be a "just us" day to chill out and relax but it turned out to be a family-oriented day but a good one : ) I finally caught "Memoirs of a Geisha". Ha ha ha. And so now I'm back home, fresh from a shower and rashes free.

Great Saturday. With a deep breath I shall embrace Sunday and hope monday never comes. Muhaha. Well one thing to look for is a house prepared steamboat that's super yum yum!

Happy weekend to all!

Happy 4th : )

You just planted a rainbow into my heart!

Thursday, April 20, 2006

I skipped going to uni in the end. The chills got worse and I developed a fever so I popped in a panadol and went to bed. The nap was a horrid one though. Despite being wrapped in the blanket and wearing a jacket, I still felt really cold. For a moment I figured this was how pple who were going to die felt. Hahaha too much drama serials. And I had weird-ass dreams. Like my hp rang and I held it in front of my face but I couldn't see it at all. Freaky. I had to jolt myself out of my sleep just to see again.

Still feeling all lousy about being groggy and grouchy, I suddenly receive a call from Uncle B. asking me if I wanted to work tomorrow night. I politely refused due to exam matter.

Then he told me I looked like a princess when he last saw me and that I didn't have to worry about the exams because he could tell I was a smart girl.

He may not have meant it entirely, but my heart is still warmed and I'm instantly perked up! Words of encouragement can mean so much, especially when it comes from someone whom I respect highly. : )

Thank you Uncle B.!

Tuition ain't easy after all.

I had mind-boggling kill students math questions thrown at me yesterday and of five only 3 were solved. The other two were just, urgh. Then I came home to a lying small one who drew in his own lines into the test paper so as to make his number bond correct but he denied it. What am I to do with a lying kid. No time to figure that out as yet.

I'm feeling much better emotionally though. All was resolved when the sweet one brought over some wan tan mee for breakfast and waited patiently while I studied. Aps called to ask if I was ok. Hahaha blogs are good avenues for release huh. But thanks anyway to all who showered concern. : )

Eating has become such a slow painful process. Yea my ulcer still resides. It's been almost a week now I reckon. I think I just caught on my dad's terrible ulcer disease. : ( I'm feeling rather chilly too despite the bright shining sun. Please tell me I ain't getting sick. That would be a disaster.

Off to uni.

Tuesday, April 18, 2006

The past two days have been such an emotional ride. Owing to 2 new fresh pimples coupled with the painful ulcer, I have become highly dependent on company.

Upon Miss Chow's departure from the library, I managed to stay for about an hour more or so. Feeling a bit sad from studying alone, I decided to ask mum and sis for dinner together and I wish I didn't. I should have just stayed in the library.

Excited to try out the new crystal jade, we went there. However mum wanted to buy some 4D so I went in first thus unleashing the chain of unhappy events. I waited about half an hour for my company to arrive. And by the time my food came I was not hungry anymore. I had so many pent up feeling and frustrations. Who was to listen anyway.

So now I bite my lip and tell myself to stop being such a weakling. I was NEVER like this in the past. What on earth is becoming of me. I need more control over myself. Period.

Guilty as charged. In a clockwise direction: Bronze bag from Accessorize, Black stretchy three quarts, free brown top that came along with it, pale yellow bebe singlet and a mini green bottle.

It's 1am as of the 18th of April. Upon doing a mini count, its 15 more days to the ultimate sweet release into a whole long stretch of lazing around days. Its funny how we always plan things when we're supposedly most "busy". I can't help it man, my brain just wanders off to such thoughts!

Think happy Work happy angie lim!

My ulcer still resides within btw. Sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks.

Doesn't help when the boy has happily bounced off to his happy holiday bunny state. Arrrggghhh. I think I went a bit berserk. We were playing and laughing at silly things when a few minutes later I was in tears. Hmmm happy tears of having finished my essay at long last I hope.

Miss Chow has just got me a bit fired up on getting a haircut. Looking at the state of my hair its gone rather out of shape. So maybe to destress I'll go for one next week!

I'm expanding. Fuck. I need to alter my tastebuds to some healthier choices.

On another note altogether, I saw my first episode of Grey's Anatomy earlier on and it was really nice! I shall go hunt for the entire season during the hols. Tons waiting for me to watch, tons of activities waiting for me to embrace too.

But meanwhile, its back to the good ol' library for some hardcore mugging.

Gd night peeps.

Happy Easter folks! : )

Sunday is a day of going for a nice breakfast with your family or loved one. It makes me feel blessed!

Ok no more procrastination. I gotta do some work before heading off to give tuition.

You work hard too ok!

A day of happy disaster.

As planned, Aps and I headed downtown for some good food and window shopping. But being the disaster shopping sisters we are, we shopped up a storm as per norm. Starting from charles and keith, we each picked up a pair of sandals that were oh well, "essentials". Haha that brings my shoe count to a total of three in the past week. *gasp*

Then we went to Yakitori for a fab lunch before heading on to DFS for some real window shopping. After awhile it got depressing to go oohh ahh over stuff that were way above our budgets so we headed to Isetan Shaw and Zara at Liat. Thereafter we decided to head back to Taka! Unable to pass by Central without having the peanut butter toast and milk tea, we divulged in yet another fatty eating binge. Ha ha ha but its damn shiok lar seriously. The peanut butter seeps in between the toast and its crisp at the sides. Yum yum!

Disaster thus struck. Walking by Accesorize I spotted a bronze bag. Somewhat like my Dorothy Perkins one that has half died but much nicer and roomier too, so grab. Then Aps bought an off shoulder from M)Phosis. I then decided I wanted to go get the Bebe top that I looked at earlier in the morning. So we went back to Wisma and Aps was a nice sis so she bought it for me using her progress package. Hurhur.

After which came Isetan Wisma and Aps picked up yet another off-shoulder top. She's damn into these off shoulder tops nowadays. And while waiting for her to try it on, I went to go have a look again at this top I've been eyeing for pretty long. Shucks, there's an irresistable offer! Buy a bottom and get any top free! So I paid 39 bucks for both the top and bottom when the top costs 29 bucks. It was a real steal!

Then we had to eat dinner before coming home but were too stuffed, so we walked all the way to tangs just to walk walk. I then bought a mini bottle for bringing water to uni. It was quite cute. Dinner at Din Tai Fung then we headed home, finally.

So it was a day of good food and good company too. : ) I'm super happy with my buys. Haha cos I've been looking for the bag for pretty long and my sandals were on the verge of breaking too so it was nice to find a replacement. Therefore it is entitled a day of happy disaster.

Time clocked : 10 hours.

Other than that, we've spun rather out of control. No more shopping trips for the rest of the month. Pictures up soon when I feel less lazy. My legs have collapsed!

I'm out.

Friday, April 14, 2006

Just got back from a nice cosy evening at an unknown person's place, but it was really nice. Got invited by Minwei to this small good friday gathering where it was an evening of fun and watching a small skit which she drafted entirely on her own. The skit was meaningful indeed and I had good fun playing taboo! I think the next time I walk into Toys R Us and see that Taboo is on sale I'd grab it. The last time I played was say... 6-8 years ago? Just now brought back good funny memories.

Anyway before that Cher and I headed down to Zion road for some divine char kway teow. I'm not a fan of oily stuff, but this char kway teow blew my socks off. Cher said it was a bit burnt but I didn't quite feel it. Promptly after devouring that plate of char kway teow we proceeded with the cheng t'ng. Also famous there. But then, I ordered the cold one which was, mistake of the month. Sigh, it wasn't as shiok as I would have liked it to be!

After which we went to great world city and upon sighting of zara I couldn't resist but walk in to just "have a look". Mistake of the month 2. I fell in love with a top, another top and a dress. Now the top is stuck in my brain. I'm going for a second viewing tomorrow. Shopping is such a wicked activity.

Ulcer update: IT HAS GOTTEN SIGNIFICANTLY BIGGER. must have been the pork lard laden char kway teow. Sigh hurts like hell again. Jason has concluded that I have contracted the HFMD. CHOI!!!!!!!!!!!

Assingment update? 3% for today. Hahahaha I only came up with one graph. SUCKKEERRRRRR I tell myself. Blah Blah!!

Thursday, April 13, 2006

I wonder.

Why I behave so negatively sometimes.

Why I don't have the determination to see through what I need to do.

Why we don't complement each other as much as I'd like us to.

Negativity = an upside down angie.

In other news, a huge ulcer has formed on my gum and its hurting me, alot.

I want to be a supernanny too! Those kids are wayyy atrocious. Imagine telling your mother the shut up in a rude way. I think I would have been ignored for the next week or so.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY APES!!!!!!!!!

This sister of mine just turned quarter of a century old at the strike of 12 last night. And for once breaking family tradition, she cut her cake exactly at 12 midnght. That's cos we're heading to the brazilian place for buffet tonight so cake definately won't settle in well as supper. Anyway, head on here for some pics of her presents if you'd like : )

I guess it's happy ending for everyone. Those who have finished cce would finally have sweet release, whereas fellow east asia mates have some breathing space to complete the last essay. At least now we write with ease I suppose. Not to say we weren't to blame for procrastination to begin with, but this essay just seemed of highest difficulty and least importance so I just kept shoving it to one side.

School's out. Let's go out and play!!!!

*self delusional* but soon that would be coming true. Just 3 more weeks. I can do it! So can you!

Monday, April 10, 2006

Upon coming up with a killer schedule to keep to just so I can meet tmr's deadline, an sms arrives saying the deadline has been extended till next tuesday.

I AM SAVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*jumps up and down*

Sunday, April 09, 2006


Yeah I misbehaved again. Hurhur BUT, the top was bought weeks ago, I merely went to collect it *innocent*. I think I've just entered a gold phase. The earrings were gorgeous! So it was a must have. The shoes were schwwweeeeet. : ) : )


After a bit of shopping at Jurong Point, we headed over to the club for a late lunch. As per the characteristic of the Lim family, we ate heaps from about 3pm till now, 9.10pm where aps is still stuffing some grapes in.

That just about sums up my sunday. I've been telling myself constantly to not stress unneccesarily or I'll have bad dreams. Therefore despite being far from completing my assignments, I went out for some fun. I think I constantly challenge myself to tasks that are almost impossible. I'm only starting my other essay tomorrow and by hook or by crook everything has to flow out by wednesday. I'm getting quite amazed at my guts.

Last night I went to catch West Side Story. Hmmm wasn't one of the better musicals I felt. Perhaps cos I was bit irritated at having to read chinese words to understand what they were trying to say.

After this week I'll be half free. Yay!

Thursday, April 06, 2006

I had my first main mexican meal last night and it was fab! : ) The mexican rice was really tasty within the burrito and the prawns were fresh. I think I'd list that restaurant down as one of those that I'd definately want to go again for a girls night out. They serve divine magaritas that are half frozen so that its kept cold throughout the entire meal. Wonderful : )

Anyway we went there to celebrate mw's birthday. Happy 21st woman!!!! I'll be joining the club soon! Hurhur. Well it was quite fun to dress up to go out for dinner cos that doesn't happen very often. Singaporeans being quite bo chup about dressing, if I dress up I usually stick out like a sore thumb.

Well after good mexican food we headed to Cafe Rosso for the exquisite cakes and we weren't disappointed at all. I had the I.S cheese cake this time and it was so light and soft. Superb! It felt a bit like ice-cream. I thought I had the best cheesecake ever at the cheesecake cafe but this one wins hands down undoubtedly. I tried their rosso special, a gladd of grapefruit iced tea. Hmm it was not bad, but not exactly "special" in that sense.

After a night of good food and great company, I feel a good motivation to get my work done today! Plus I'm blessed with somemore good company later today so I'm happy happy happy! Have a great day guys! And warning: The posts below are all picture-fied.

One more to the wishlist.


Pretty little black top. Great for a night out : )

Weekend shopping! The pink is wayy sweeeet

This dress definately has a slimming effect. Ha ha ha

The pair of gorgeous shorts i've been raving about to all I know. They drive me insane with the soft silky feel and endearing lace details. I sigh!

After a long hectic day of running from place to place in a bid to submit all assignments, I winded down with a nap and some online browsing of Mango's catalogue. Which makes me feel like running to the shop now but alas Mango's prices have inflated terribly and so I'm left stranded ogling at the online catalogue and admiring the clothes only from the racks. Darn. Lovely shorts are priced at 75 buckeroos (^#$%#@). But still it's logical to have a wishlist right. : )

I've been splashing money like nobody's business. The weekend brought about a short fast shopping trip to Fox with dad's dbs card and I picked up a floaty skirt and berms from there. Unfortunately dad wasn't nice enough to sponsor our shopping. During class today I started thinking about what I wanted to do this friday on my day out with the woman! I built up this urge to want to go to Heeren because I haven't been there in ages. I love going to the annex and peeking into all the small shops to see if any treasures are to be uncovered there. I feel like buying more clothes, shoes and accessories. I just feel like going on a shopping binge! Ok before I get more insane with my thoughts ramming in all directions,

I shall get back to the harsh reality of readings on CHINA. Blah. why the hell does china need to trade.

Monday morning has come. The day before I have 3 big assignments due tomorrow. Only 1 is fully done. GAHHHH!!!!!!

Somehow I have lost interest in doing my work. There is no passion nor motivation and I abhor myself for that. Work to me now is just typing out what they want and submitting it, then hope for the best. Which is the absolutely wrong attitude, but there's so much to do I just want to finish it as fast as I can.

Am gonna trod to uni soon. Tons to be done today and tuition tonight with easy peasy. Life doesn't go easy does it?

Haha I'm in such a whiney mood. Blah.

This week marks the end of tutorials, and next week marks the end of all assignment deadlines. Then comes the exam mugging and sweeet release thereafter. The wait is killing me. Ironically time seems to fly by these few days with the immense workload. I find myself waking up bright and early just to sieze the morning alertness that I possess.

I'm kinda crapping man. sigh.
