ever felt like disappearing?
from someone who cares too much about you.
whom you cant bare your whole heart to.
nobody actually cares.
ever felt maybe you shouldn't say certain things.
or ever regret saying things that you shouldn't?
oh. maybe you don't.
cuz you don't feel it.
is that EQ, you call?
my throats back in bad shape.

From l-R: in the Bukit Panjang LRT, Lompang Road, Orange tube, West Mall, LRT map.
yesterday was a terrible day.
but i managed to survive all of it.
my breakfast cum lunch cost only $1
and i couldn't finish it.
i bought an orange tube from west mall
and a gold belt from lot 1.
i took the LRT. whoooo.
i mean it's like fun, cuz it's the 1st time i'm taking it.
It's like discovering Singapore. the woolu part of it.
The west seems gloomy, not like the east.
I had a spinning headache.
my throat was hurting badly i couldn't sallow.
and the fact that the west make it seem i was in a jungle.
If that wasn't bad enough...
the store managers look kinda scary with their black faces.
phone went on low batt.
camera no more memory space.

the black face.
Good thing i wore orange.
orange's a happy colour, don't ya think?

my short attention span
falls and divides
falls and divides
i'm sorry
for the magic that surrounds you
speaks a foreign language
that seems distant from me
it seems as tho' i don't care
it seems as tho' nothing mattered
it seems as tho' i'm too full of myself
to just sit and listen.
i'm listening. i am.
i'm sorry for making you feel worried.
i'm sorry for making you feel as tho' i didn't care.
i'm sorry for being irritated with you.
i'm sorry for not appreciating your nags.
i'm sorry for not always being there for you.
i'm sorry for not showering you with more care.
i'm sorry for causing you stress.
i'm sorry for making you mad.
i'm sorry for making you feel like you did.
don't give up on me yet.
cuz you bring out the best in me. that's why i'm here.
it is just the start of a beautiful bliss

My tiGgerific day.@4/23/2005 12:14:00 AM
started work at 9ish in the AM.
Dad prayed a weird prayer that morning that i would not get into any trouble that day and i would find favor with the supervisors, the aunties and whoever blahs.
crome the stores from parkway to tiong bahru to far east. met eddie for chicken rice and you chai.
while eating we met jamie yeo, mark richmond and crew.
then took bus 16 to great world. great world is a name for itself.
everything inside is huge. the stores are like mega. the normal coldstorage had only 5-4 gondolas. but this had 14 gondolas of bathroom papers. i nearly fainted. but thank God the items were prim & proper.
when i entered, i found my way to the 'no entry except for staff' entrance to get my pass. the what looked like a huge warehouse with so many routes ahead. i was lost. this kind lady told me to get the pass by entering from the loading/unloading bay. I found it kinda weird cuz i never had to. She led the way. I went there. the people there looked as if they were gonna eat me up with their big staring eyes and never smiling lips. I entered from the right side. I ended up standing on the left of the counter cuz it seems the queue started there.
Then some auntie shouted at me: Where did you come from?
'from the door on the right.'
auntie: why you stand on the left?
auntie: Gimme your I/C
i passed her my i/c, signed in. walked towards what seem like a maze that never ends.
finally i got out. i took a breather.
then the kind lady: xiao jie, you're out. did she scold you?
'no, but she was kinda scary tho'. thanks auntie.'
yepps. great world. great people. great bullies. now i understand what it means by when the holy spirit works in us.
IT SPOKE TO ME. Just I walked past it, I thought i heard it whisper: 'please enter'.
I couldn't resist.. so I entered Wh immediately after finishing my game of spot the difference.
so exciting laa. the store's like cool. i bought a white capri. i like the brown shorts tho'

nice nice?
then, i saw allan wu and wong lilin.
went shopping with dear and i saw Wh at Taka. i felt cheated. ugh.
dumb dumb. now everyone would have what i bought.
should i still buy the brown shorts?

the coloured walls of the paper.
which colour do you think i'd like?
Then had healthy dinner of tahu goreng telor with aloevera in lime juice, ham & cheese sandwich, pinepaple, strawberries and papaya.
yummilicious!

'stop calling me brother, you're insulting my mother!'
-be cool-
And the day ended.

do u like my new off shoulder top?
bought it to destressss.
not that i'm under stress.
it's just that i like to dress.
retail therapy.
while leaving on the bus this afternoon.
passengers hurried to the rear,
a suddenly change in direction on their frantic faces
causing many others to give way.
'y walk to the rear when u already decided to sit in front?'
THEN,
everything came clearwhen the bird appeared
bird poo all over the back seats.
i was like CRAP.
please don't come near me.
it's funny how little creatures are able to disrupt lives of humans.
when we are so much greater than them.
sounds unfamiliar?
think cockroach, lizards.
it's funny how morning people enjoy the singing of birds
it's funny how ah pehs like to bird watch
and funny how everyone agrees that birds are beautiful creatures.
but only on one condition.
that they do what we like them to do.
we like them when they sing.
we dislike them when they disturb us.

one fine saturday raising fund for the down syndrome kids.

not only are they fun to play with..
they are unique. so super cute!
and raising funds for them is so not a chore..
if only...
*i had my mocha with hazelnut. a very very happy girl.
*i made new friends.. shirley, mun hong.
*we spent an enjoyable kuku time together.
(points at the *censored* tapes on my mouth, and shirley's eyes)
Did i say.. Singaporeans are not that all generous when it comes to street donations.
Hi, would you like to donate $$ to help the down syndrome kids?
a) a woman pulled out her umbrella and open it in ur face.
b) stare straight, ignoring you as tho they were either deaf/blind or i was invinsible and soft-spoken.
c) turn away immediately and walk another direction just to avoid you.
But there are some kind souls that amazed me.. and that brighten up my day.
this guy i asked.. he stopped, smiled, searched for his coins and said sorry.
5 minutes later..
the guy came back with shilings.. like alot. and put it in my can.
he went to the mamashop behind the library just to buy a drink so he could have shilings.
I know u must be thinking.. 'Awwww.. how sweeet. '
yepps. that's a sweetie pie. too bad he's younger than me.. muaaaaah.

it's funny how one can dream about being what the best in ______.
and thinks that his world has collaspe when he had leg injury.
more than that, he left to be with the world.
is nothing real anymore?
how do u do that?
how could you just fall into being with the world
just because of an injury.
I understand how painful it is.
but if everyone injured were to think of it that way.
i wouldn't be here.
what's like not having to eat chocolates, candies and everything nice?
what's like not having to wear heels?
what's like not having to wear hipster jeans?
what's like not having to eat fries, potatos, rice?
it's not that i'm not scared.
i'm fearful of what's next?
i'm only 19.
helloOoo?
but i'm at peace with myself, with God.
cuz i know he cares for me.
The Bible says: "The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble.
He cares for those who trust in Him." (Nahum 1:7 NIV)
I'm not self-made. I don't rule my own world.
if you do.. your saying u know what's good for you.
and if anything wrong happens, you know who to blame.
nobody but yourself.
So please don't stray.
think about it.
what's like not having friends?
friends you can count on.
Jesus is your best friend.
The only one who can give u divine help.
for it says: real help comes from God.
and it hurts the people who care for you.
Lord, teach me how to cooperate with You to increase my faith in You and YourWord. Don't let me live my life doubting Your love, Your power, or Yourprovision. Thank You that as I turn to You first in times of trouble, and putmy trust in You, I will experience the support and care that only You can give!

no matter how fake a person can get, she/he is real.
sudden rush of tots of how some people view other as being fake, hence not wanting to be their friends.
but seriously, no someone is able to please everyone.
moreover, when your not nice to someone
others comment that ur mean.
and when your nice, your fake.
It's good to be nice. it's awkard to be nice to someone u hardly know.
And you are like expected to be nice to new comers and stuff.
how fake?
or
how real.
Thus, i have concluded that
no matter how fake a person can get,
she/he is real to the people they really care about.

Both A & B were supposed to meet at particular place at a particular time.
A msg B informing that A was gonna be late half an hour before.
A rush down in a cab to meet B.
A called B but to no avail when A reached destination.
A tot B was still in slumberland.
A kept calling B while at the particular place.
But still to no avail.
A tot.. wad a sleepy head. after 2 hours of missed calls still cannot wake B up.
B however was at the particular place roaming around for 2 hours.
2.5 hrs later.
B reached home, rememberg phone being left in bedroom.
B checked phone, 99 missed calls.
B felt sorry, called A.
A was on bus heading home.
Both decided to meet back at the particular place half an hour later.
had dinner at phin's. watched guess who?
THE END.

today. worship was good. i lurve the songs. It striked me that its a personal relationship with another in order to make disciples. Christian living is a paradox. Jesus didn't promise a life free from trembles.
How akward it seems to deliberately spend time with someone u hardly know.
But little we realize that buddies we have now
are but the most time consuming relationships.
But it's no doubt, I love spending time w my buddies.

The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you
I'm open, your closed
Where I'll follow you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find you and I collide
I'm quiet you know
You make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know
I'm always on your mind
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
Somehow find you and I collide
Don't stop here
I lost my place
I'm close behind
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find you and I collide
i lurve this song.. it has a melancholy touch to it. exactly how i'm feeling now. slighty sad but hoping on a brighter side. life is what you make of it. so i'm trying to light up. no point being gloomy right?

Description of my name, Rachel
Although the name Rachel creates the urge to be reliable and responsible, we emphasize that it causes procrastination, lack of confidence, and the inability to realize your goals and ambitions. This name, when combined with the last name, can frustrate happiness, contentment, and success, as well as cause health weaknesses in the fluid systems, and worry or mental tension.
As Rachel you are rather serious-minded, responsible, and stable. You have the gift of tact and diplomacy, and possess a charming, easy-going nature which endears you to others. You have a serious desire to understand the heart and mind of everyone, and could be very effective in a career or in volunteer work where you are handling people and serving in a humanitarian way. This name also gives you a love of home and family, and as a parent you would likely be fair and understanding.
