A's celebration!

Went to Studio M Hotel @ Clarke Quay and stayed there for 2D1N for Anna's celebration last Friday. Initially, the place was booked for just a chilling session but since Anna's birthday is around the corner, why not kill two birds with one stone and celebrate it there too? Tried to plan the whole thing out but MAJOR FAIL. LOL. Anna was alrdy suspicious about the celebration bcos some people can't keep their pokerface on when she inquired certain stuff. Tsk! Okay getting hypocritical here, cos I'm a major noob in lying/bluffing/kidding too. Sighhhhh.








Nonetheless, the whole event was a blast! Consequently, my eyebags are more prominent than before and I've got 12 hours of sleep to catch up on. Double sigh. Not to mention that my pocket has a super large hole. Sighsigh. Okay bye~

Pia should've been crowned the American Idol!! WHY OH WHY.



Now that my favourite is gone, I don't feel like watching alr! Pshhh. Not to worry, not even 24 hours after the elimination, she got a record deal with Interscope Records! Cheers.

Ever got that feeling when everything's suddenly way out of your control and you can't do anything but just sit there & watch?
Ever got that feeling when certain circumstances force nasty things to happen and you feel all the more distraught than before?
Ever got that feeling when tumultuous feelings intensified to the extent that you can't hold it all in, forcing you to become bitter towards certain aspects of life?
Ever got that feeling when everything's suddenly happening too fast and you wish that time would just stop at a certain point of time when you felt the happiest?
Ever got that feeling of disappointment from the person who you do not expect it most, to come from?
Ever got that feeling where you wished you were exposed to truths earlier than facing it at that time to protect yourself from getting affected?
Ever got that feeling where you just feel like starting anew?

For when I am weak, then I am strong.

Don't be a drag, just be a queen

3 Covers of Born This Way.







All of them are unique in their own way. As for the second video, the views were still skyrocketing as her vocals are superb for a person who is only 10! Even Lady Gaga surprised her by calling her to express her elation. How cool is thaaaaat.

I'm gnna buy myself a pair of heels. Probably at most, 4inches.

"I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible."

“Will you remember? For me? Just that… I loved once — just once, really, in my whole life. Can you remember that I loved you? That made my life… worth… something.”

— Damon Salvatore to Elena Gilbert, Midnight

"I wrote you 365 letters, I wrote you everyday for a year."
"You wrote me?"
"Yes, it wasn't over. It still isn't over."

“I live in a world where the two truths coexist; where both hell and hope lie in the palm of my hand.”

Fun night last night. Even though its just picture-taking, talking or slacking. Stayed up with Anna, Jy & Ser up till almost 2am plus and was knocked out by 3.30am. I ONLY HAD 5 HOURS OF SLEEP and I can't get back to sleep. Ahhh, super cranky. :@

One moment, it's inseparable. The next, it becomes strained to the point where you feel highly distraught even if you don't even want to feel the slightest as you don't want to stoop to the point of being selfish for your own pessimistic reasons. So optimism surges back, insistently, as you would rather feel happy instead of being guilty. As what they say, Ignorance is bliss. But you just know it's too much of something that you can't be unperturbed on. It's one of the suckiest feelings in the world.

Sg Slingers vs. Thai Slammers ytd night. 8) Slingers won! Forgot the score though. Took pictures wf a few players. Was really tired ttm!











I realised I was fidgeting with my fingers in most of the pictures. Looks as if I'm intimidated! Hahahaha. I love Anna and Gm! Wfout you both, I wld've been disappointed on the way home yesterday! :D Much much much much thanks!

AWESOME! Gotta catch it! Cos Christina's vocals are really superb! Feel like watching the movie again, hah!

I was looking through my tumblr timeline when I saw this and I cracked up. It's called THE STAGES OF VAMPIRE DIARIES HIATUS MADNESS.


First comes the screaming:

I WANT VAMPIRE DIARIES TO BE HERE ALREADY, ALRIGHT!

And then everything irritates us:

But then we’re like:

I’m sorry for yelling at you. But they’re like, “It’s only a show…” -pouts-

ONLY A SHOW!!!!:

Omg..can’t breath. You just said the most unspeakable words..

And through all the:

finally comes the:

It’s finally here! OMG!! YESS!

And ians like:

*nom*nom*nom* Bravo…you didn’t go completely insane.

HAHAHAHAHA OMG FUNNY TTM. Seriously, tumblr has the most funny short clips ever. It's super entertaining! It's funny how those people make time to create these short clips just because they're going somehow a bit crazy over TVD's hiatus. Glad to know I'm still quite sane. Hah!

2010 has been a great year!

Highlights:
- Training at least 5-6 days in a week.
- For the first time, we qualified for top 4 in the West Zone and nationals for the B Div girls.
- For the first time, we got national champion!
- I won the creative writing competition.

- Struggling in F&N throughout the year and getting an A2 for it!!

So yessss, IT HAS BEEN A GREAT YEAR! I loved 2010 but 2011 is gnna be greater, cooler, more fun and better! Even though it's my last year in Singapore, it's gnna be awesome! I can feel it! Heh.

I don't need a parachute, baby if I've got you






Christmas was great! I love my presents. I love the food. I love the joy. I love the season. I love the reason for the season. I love the happiness!

Was out of my mind wf boredom. Youtube provides entertainment when you're in dire need of it! Let's start from here~



This video is quite famous nowadays in fb or twitter. Once in a while, I'll see a few friends post this video. Anw, the 2nd one's from this cool and genius guy! I was reminded of Glee's version of Teenage Dream while watching this.



Hahahaha, really cool. Okay, I'm gonna go get the room ready for my aunt and her kids to stay over. Finally, something productive to do, even if doing chores is a bore. But at least I'm doing something. Right. BYE.

Omg la I saw something which made me so so so happy but also made me cry.

CLICK HERE TO SEE!!!

AHHHH!! Please please let Damon & Elena be togetherrrrrr. Yes, Stefan is good. But Stefan & Elena is like Edward & Bella. Well, not ridiculously mushy but it's just mushy. & Damon & Elena just SCREAMS 'overflowing CHEMISTRY' and seeing their scenes make my heart beat frantically (Stefan & Elena's break-up only made my heart twitch) because I love it when Damon gets sensitive as it's such a rare thing for that to happen and Elena is always the one who brings out the best in him.

Furthermore, Damon compelling Elena was like what Julie Plec said. It's something like "I don’t even want you to know this because I don’t even want you to think about it. I don’t want it to even be out on the table as an option or a possibility. I just need to get it off my chest. I need to have said it once, and then we’ll both go on like it never happened.” WHICH WAS SRSLY SO SELFLESS, GOSH. Major big difference in Damon!! Okay, gonna stop rambling now. It's just that I tend to rant or ramble whenever I'm feeling sad/frustrated/angry. Argh. Off to watch the clip for the 27th time. Heh.

Christmas is coming! Hohohoho. Excited maxxxxx.

Have I mentioned how awesome my mom is? Heh. Gosh, she's such an awesome cook. Ironically, her daughter has such terrible culinary skills. Tsktsk. & she offered to finally teach me how to cook! HAH! My f&n teacher will be utterly gobsmacked once she sees such unbelievable improvement! I have no problems with baking but only with cooking western or other modern dishes. Oh wellzx.

Anw do vote for your fave actors/actresses/singers/band/tvshows @ peopleschoice.com! Voting is limitless & I've been voting for Emma Watson, Ian Somerhalder, TVD & Katy Perry twice to thrice a week. Supportive right! Tsk.

I was bored. Came across Anna's blog and she got this name meaning post and I thought it might be fun. So I googled my name's own meaning. This is for fun & I'm not superstitious. Tsk.

Joanne Name Meaning:
Gender: Girl
Origin: English
Historical Meaning: God is gracious

Numerological meaning:

Potential: Marketer - Expression / Destiny Number 5
- Positive: Endowed with wonderful characteristic of multi-talents and versatility, Joanne can do so many things well. The tone of the number 5 is constructive freedom, and in her drive to attain this freedom, Joanne will likely be master of adaptibility and change. Joanne is good at presenting ideas and knowing how to approach people to get what Joanne wants. Naturally, this gives Joanne an edge in any sort of selling game and spells easy success when it comes to working with people in most jobs. Her popularity may lead Joanne toward some form of entertainment and amusement. Whatever Joanne does, Joanne is clever, analytical and a very quick thinker.

-Negative: Her restless and impatient attitude may keep Joanne from staying with any project for too long. Sometimes, Joanne can be rather erratic and scatter herself and her energies. Joanne has a hard time keeping regular office hours and maintaining any sort of routine. Joanne tends to react strongly if Joanne senses that her freedom of speech or action is being impaired or restricted in any way. As clever as they are, Joanne may have a tendency to make the same mistakes over and over again because much of her response is glib reaction rather than thoughtful application. Joanne is in a continuous state of flux brought by constantly changing interests.

Desire: Expression - Soul Urge Number 3.
Her desire in life is personal expression, and generally enjoying life to its fullest. Joanne wants to participate in an active social life and enjoy a large circle of friends. Joanne wants to be in the limelight, expressing her artistic or intellectual talents. Word skills may be her thing; speaking, writing, acting, singing.

-Positive: Friendly, outgoing and always very social. Joanne has a decidedly upbeat attitude that is rarely discouraged; a good mental and emotional balance. The 3 soul urge gives intuitive insight, thus, very high creative and inspirational tendencies. The truly outstanding trait shown by the 3 Soul Urge is that of self-expression, regardless of the field of endeavor.

-Negative: Joanne at times become too easygoing and too optimistic; tending to scatter forces and accomplish very little. Often, the excessive 3 energy produces non-stop talkers. Everyone has faults but the 3 soul urge doesnt appreciate these pointed out.

Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow

Geeeeeee, I eat dunkin' donuts everyday so far, eat fruits for snacks, eat those fastfood which exists in Philippines but not in Singapore, had Starbucks thrice, COS IT'S CHEAPER & was literally forced to eat even if I'm not hungry. :@

Anw, I'm glad to have reconciled with a good friend! Hohohohoho~ It sure was easy and conversation basically flowed like hyperly normal. ^^



Hehehehe, that night got me cracking wf so much laughter. The next day, my grandma was asking why I was laughing and smiling when I was using the laptop. Heh!

Anyway, last night I dreamt about being bombarded with kisses from all my friends. Oh geeee, my reactions in the dream were almost the same as reality. When I got bombarded wf kisses from my team-mates before flying off, I complained and sulked and sulked some more. Not that I hate actions of affection but my friends know that I'm quite violent, fierce and highly reactive in nature and know that I'm not so mushy. But still, that's touching. 8') looking at those kissy pictures make me either snicker or glare at it. Tsk! They're @ fb btw.

Off to eat more food. The pau here taste rlly great!! I think my friends are evil. They gave me a green bikini as my present and when I'm back at sg, I don't even know if I can wear it alr. Pfft.

Awww, cute ttm! I love Emma Watson & Tom Felton. Even though I'm not a total fan of the Harry Potter books, I've watched a few movies since they're starring at the movies and also loved Hermione and Draco.

This evening, Jeff & Weiquan treated me @ Newyork, newyork! Today was awesomeee! Flying off tomorrow! Hohohoho, can't wait to eat those foods which I've been eating since young. But I'm going out first with the awesome girls for sushi & movie before my flight. Tomorrow's also gnna be awesomeeeeeeeeee! I think people won't even know I'm on holiday since I'm sure I can go online there. Hahahaha. Okay bye! Au revoir!

Going back to Philippines in November 6 till November 28! :D It was rlly sudden notice. My mum dropped the bomb only a few days ago.

The perks?
- I can shop and eat like crazy again.
- Most of the stuff there are affordable.
- I can celebrate my birthday there wf my relatives after NINE LONG YEARS.
- I can see my relatives.
- I can pamper myself more.

The drawbacks?
- I can't go for the Msia basketball trip when this year, we're going to be accommodated in an awesome hotel!
- I CAN'T WORK. :(

Yep, so I think that's it. The main reason we're going there is for my brother to go through lots of check-up as something triggered his asthma to come back. Me, my younger brother and younger sister are going there first @ Nov 6. Mom and Dad going on November 20. Geeee, I'm so bored now. November faster come pleaseeee.

ANW, @ Ger's house a few days ago for a catching up session wf mates, I was watching TVD when they were mahjong-ing. Then while we were eating KFC @ the living room where Ger's mom was watching tv...

Xf: Elena got killed.
Me: Ya, Elena got killed as it is written in the book. She got killed by Katherine and..
Germaine laughs.
Germaine: My mom's name is Katherine.
Me: ..................................

Mine and Charmaine's motive was to continue job hunting but then, when we were on our way to town, Victor & Charmaine got a call from _____ and they managed to get a job interview alr!

After 10 minutes, I was feeling so down alr but suddenly, I received a call and my face brightened instantly. HAHA. Our job interview went fairly well and hopefully, the 3 of us will get a call from them this Friday!

Moving onnn, since we alr have an interview for the next day, we went to take photos instead! Guess where....
