When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling now.
Femme Fatale
Turning fifteen on the next 1810, she believes she's still kid with limitless energy, especially when it comes to shopping.
She has some serious weight issues. Seriously, who doesn't? Much to the dismay of many people, she believes that no one is ever too skinny, but everyone is liable to be too fat.
All right, maybe except for those crazily skinny models. Who wants to look like a pile of bones.
Did she mention she is also sometimes a HUGE hypocrite?
She is slowly turning into the incredible puking machine when she stares at food too hard. That's one thing she really hates about herself.
However, she loves a lot of people and also shopping and running around like a crazy woman sometimes. And unlike what people say, cosplay is NOT stupid and is totally
safe for the whole family. It goes without saying she needs a lot of cash and credit on hand for her compulsive shopping habits.
Staying out is also great, 'cause who wants to stone at home?
More often than not, she whines about everyday life, loves and hates. Eye-candy is fun, but dangerous sometimes too.
Hair is not a mane issue, but it's no doubt important, so please excuse her when she takes out mirrors to check herself.
And yes, Disneyland is the happiest place on Earth.

I admit, LJ is pulling me towards it ): so sad luh. WHY CAN'T BLOGGER BE MORE LIKE LJ? Anyway, I'm going to move to LJ permanently, unless I'm pissed off by it/I get bored by LJ [which is pretty difficult]. BUT, if you tag here, I'll post tag replies, cause I'm planning to keep my blogger (:
Well, this is it. GOODBYE BLOGGER, HELLO LJ. clickclickclick Relink.

And if we turned back.

Hey hello.
Went to watch Ponyo with Andro, Isabel and Si Hui yesterday at The Cathay. It's really cute haha! Not bad really, and it's definitely much better than The Little Mermaid [which it was based on]. There were a few parts when Ponyo looked really scary, but most of the time, she looked cute. After the movie, we went to Black Alice, but apparently, there was a private function. So we couldn't get in ):
Anyway, I dragged all of them to Wood Would! It's such a cute shop, I really want to buy the entire place down. I was planning to get the planner there, but they all cost around $50 and the cheapest one only had weeklies. So in the end, I splurged $20 on a notebook for who know what, and went home and realised Grace wanted to go stationery shopping at artbox.
Anyway, those assholes decided that I was letting cosplay get to my head and decided that after yesterday, there would be no more going out on weekends [?!?!?!?]. Absolutely pissed off, also because of another matter. So now, I probably can't cosplay for SOY rawrr. Maybe during holidays, but not SOY ): FUCK YOU ASSHOLES. AND ANOTHER BUNCH OF ASSHOLES.
Lj is difficult to use, but I spent 4 hours messing around with it and now it's fine (: No telling whether I'd move there or not haha. xoxo mandy
You better let me go.

First day back and it was uhm, pretty scary. I wasn't really myself today though. I don't know what's with all the fake high [and some random dancing], but I was blurry the whole day and I had a lot of energy to get rid of.
New class was fine, but they do stuff really efficiently. I'll bet I scared off the class today with random shouting, but I was shocked 'cause apparently, we already have a class blog and they're already thinking about the class tee. Haha, all I can say is, 211 is definitely not like this, and I'll bet I'd be at the bottom of my class with all my slow-ness. I mean, it's good, just not used to it haha. Even though I never thought 211 was a fantastic class, it was my comfort zone and I really loved it, especially when I sat next to Lois and I had a chair for my bag so it wouldn't get dirty. And all the safe, fun gossip too, about teachers and other people, so much that Cheryl would scold us [if she didn't join in]. I MISS MY TABLEPARTNERS AND THE OTHER 211-ERS ):
Well, new class isn't bad. It's just very efficient. Guess it's cause of HP, so everyone's like bangbangabang while I'm like, bang*pause*bang. Oh no, I need a planner ): Haha, new class people do seem nice. I mean, I haven't talked to most of them [save for those I already know], but they seem nice. Our class seems the normal-est one suddenly.
Oh well, movies with Isabel, Andro, Cassy and Si Hui tomorrow, then off to Black Alice to look at stuff. Hopefully I can have a mini spree at Wood Would, and get a pretty pretty planner. And maybe if I still have money, I'd go watch Nick and Norah or another movie with LS when we have the time. I realised Sec 3 is going to be a fucking busy year.
Goodbye life and hello hell. xoxo mandy
You haven't told me anything.

New Year. Ha, don't really care.
ANYWAY, resolutions! Apparently, it's easier to keep three resolutions [I saw long lists everywhere] and I've decided to be lazy, so here goes.
Resolutions for '09 1. Save up at least $5 at the end of each week [so that I can fund my cosplay and whatnot] 2. Run every monday morning for half an hour unless I'm really sick. 3. Get a planner and STICK TO IT.
Yups, that's it. Of course, I have more, but those are the most important ones (: Oh well, new class, new cliques, new friends, new juniors. Everything's going to change this year, I can feel it. I'm just not sure whether it's positive or negative.
Before I go, there's this video on Caitlin's blog [SHE MOVED O:] that I've taken. It's really really cute! Watch it!
Well, ttfn! I'm pretty sure those kiasu anxious parents of the new Sec Ones are going to create a massive jam tomorrow morning. xoxo mandy
Break my heart again, love.

WWW with Beth, Teresa and YM yesterday was fun. Crazy obsessions, scary slides, weird lifeguards, running around like crazy women and drunk moments [mostly from me] pretty much made the day. I really didn't want to go home at the end of it all. Somehow, I just didn't want to go home to my family yesterday. I guess anywhere is better than home. If only I told my parents that it was overnight, I'd probably crash Zoey/Andro's place [They're the only people I can ever think that wouldn't call my parents under these circumstances]. But still, thanks to those three, I really enjoyed the whole thing. If only more people came. Anywayy, by the time I got home, I was so tired that I slept for 14 hours straight. Haha stupid Amanda.
I'm planning to do a Jigoku Shoujo cosplay later in 2009. Time to save up more money/borrow more money. It'd hopefully be easier cause she doesn't have any expressions most of the time. The costume and contacts can also be ordered and I can make the straw doll [with strings/wire, spray paint and lacquer] myself, so it all comes down to whether I want to buy the wig or just cut and grow my hair.
Today last year, I was in Escape with Adelyn, Grace and Susi. Today, I spent my time looking for my jigoku shoujo costume. Things have changed I guess (:
I feel so empty. xoxo mandy

Back from HK.
The shopping was nothing to shout about, really, 'cause the prices there are only slightly cheaper than SG 'cause of the exchange rate. Andand yes, the items at Ladies' Street [or something like that] were so cheap I could puke, it was something like a SG pasar malaam. With pasar malaam quality so yea. But anyway, I still bought stuff from there [a super cute plaid skirt! and some gifts and two hats] Oh and to Cotton On which had a superawesome sale and bought a shirt dress and a pair of earrings. Went to Times Square to look at Gucci bags with mom and fell in love with the Tatoo Hearts Collection. Would totally love the person who bought one of the bags/wallet/shoes from that Collection. Didn't buy anything from Gucci in the end and walked around the mall and realised it was a High End shopping place. Went to look for new school shoes in Adidas and Nike and New Balance, but decided to buy in SG. Got pissed off and majorly tired from walking around [I just went to Disneyland the day before] so I bugged my mom to let me go into Converse to have a look at the sneakers. Wanted to buy a pair but then was in no mood until I saw a supersuperawesome bag and went to get it. It wasn't really cheap though, but it's not out yet in SG [I think], so I love it a lot (: Didn't get to buy my wigs! There were wig shops EVERYWHERE but I couldn't find the wigs I wanted like whattheblah. Fyi, I want a long, straight black wig with bangs and a long staight blonde wig with bangs, so you can get it for a post-christmas gift (:
Anyway, the only thing I liked was actually the food and Disneyland. The food was omgoshlikefuckingawesome compared to normal SG food. And somehow, the food there all tasted pretty awesome, even in Disneyland. Okay, Disneyland food was just what you get in SG, but that's good enough. Anyway, the desserts there was just fantastic. It's like heaven in your mouth [okay, sounds wrong]. Haha Grace Koh Kah Shin is preventing me from finishing this post efficiently xD Anyway, food was just awesomely great. Can't say enough. And Disneyland was itsybitsy, and the rides were boring, but somehow, I have always loved that dreamy feel when I touch down on Disneyland. The atmosphere was just there and the fireworks was so pretty it almost made me cry. And I realised that I really love the story of Alice in the Wonderland. Somehow, it's the saddest story ever 'cause that girl wakes up and finds out it was all just a dream. Andand the entrance was so dreamy. There was a board that said Today you leave today and enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow and fantasy. So pretty (:
Anyway, I went home and called Teresa to get details about chalet. Turns out VERY few people are going for WWW rawr. And it seems that this trip had lots of eye candy. In the streets of HK all the way to the trip back. And even though most of them have girlfriends, I THINK THE COUPLES LOOK SO DAMN CUTE. Not like in SG where couples are more often than not ugly with good looking, but there, it's just good looking with good looking (:
John Legend is the sex :3 but I still want the Killers, FOB, Mark Ronson and Amy Winehouse. And thanks CHEWY! For the awesome christmas card you got for me! Love you lots! Ttfn, shall go sleep soon.
[/edit] Just noticed that Grace asked me to do a quiz (: I'm so nice luh!
According to your age, list down the number of things that most people don't know about you. And then tag 5 people.
1. I think people who are scared of cosplayers are stupid. 2. I think bgrs are so overrated. 3. I USED TO want to be bulimic. 4. Self-photography actually makes me happy when I'm sad. 5. I puke whenever I see food that disgusts me. 6. I puke when I eat food that is too oily. 7. I used to be overweight. 8. I have always wanted to switch to xanga/lj but have been too lazy. 9. At one point, I wanted to be a manicurist. 10. I love desserts and can't stop myself from eating them. 11. I cook better without people staring at me. 12. I have shopped for more than 10 hours until I had muscleache the next day. 13. I have a silly infatuation with lomo cameras. 14. I want to retire before 35.
Tag: Andro, Qiu Luan, Lin Sha, Teresa, Shu Hui

Let's love.

Haha don't misunderstand my post title (: But I'm serious, I feel so love-y to everyone now.
John Legend's voice is so f-ing sexy. [I'm on a campaign to keep my blog unblocked on school computers (:] It makes me think of love everytime I listen to it.
Okay, I used to be against the idea of love. I still am, but it's only between those of couples. Love in other forms, like how I love my friends, how I'd love songs that make me feel good. Zomg, strangers in Hong Kong better be wary of a girl who'd suddenly go up to them and say "I love everyone!". Okay, I won't, but I feel like doing it in Singapore (: In my school maybe. Or when I go shopping. Haha, crazy much.
Which reminds me of an irritating fact that I'm flying off to Hong Kong in 12 hours. I don't want to go! I want to go for cca chalet. The only thing I look forward to is the crazy shopping [I hope I won't be disappointed] and Disneyland for good use of the new camera.
Anyway, Grace Koh Kah Shin, YOU'RE SO SWEET LUH! ILYVM! This lady here sent me a sms all the way from who-knows-where in Malaysia saying very nice stuff (: Haha, I MISS YOU A LOT TOO, DARLING! I've just realised we've been through so much and we're not going to be in the same class anymore ): No doubt there were a lot of downs, but the ups were good and happy too (: Come back soon! I'll try to get you a Christmas present. Okay, I'll try to get Christmas present for all good friends. Haha this is like the 5498275024832740982nd time I've typed out Grace's full name xD Ahh, I miss my friends so much! Even cca people whom I've just seen a few days back. Not to mention the IJ people who have gone through crazy times with me.
I LOVE EVERYONE SO VERY MUCH. Even eye-candies whom I haven't seen for ages [in the you-make-me-happy way, you sickos], even people I've only met once for events and will never see them again. Maybe it's just the Christmas spirit. Happy Christmas and Merry New Year everyone (: Amanda loves all of you.
Hong Kong hello, Singapore goodbye. xoxo mandy
