hey. this blog is currently giving me so many problems with the html and stuff. so here's the new blog!

http://cherispeaks.blogspot.com

relink and cya folks!


torsdag, november 22, 2007
hey all. long time since pictures have appeared. i am trying to find a new blog skin, but gimme some time cos ive been really busy. my schedule's almost always packed all the way!

alright, i think that EARTH IS really huge. after seeing pictures, i realised that there is more than what i know and can see! and since i aint got enuff moolah to go to every place in the world, i watch travelling shows and see pictures and magazines. and perhaps you dont know but my ambition is not to be an accountant/doctor/lawyer blah blah but actually a TRAVELLING SHOW HOST. yeah. that. like anthony bourdain ^^ and those on discovery travel and living, lonely planet...

below are real pictures, not taken from any website:


1. SYDNEY

business district


fountain place with lotsa flags of other countries

sydney harbor bridge
luna theme park. free entry! only pay for rides you seat
world heritage site (for dunno what's sake) - sydney opera house
sydney fish market. just look at this picture alone. explains the fact that australia has many asians.
random picture outside the fish market.

2. khasab, oman (middle east/persian gulf)
this country is almost totally made up of concrete. air is stale and little vegetation thrive. akin to a desert environment.
the blue thingy in the middle is water, if you wonder. how blue... if you compare if to singapore's grey-greenish waters!
but the waters abound with fish
toldcha this place is full of concrete. the small thingy in the middle is actually a fourwheeldrive. how small it seems.
its not hills in the background, but rather, hills of concrete

3. mundra, gujarat state, india
you have an impression that its dirty, desolate, poor and not very clean. well thats SOME, but not all parts of india. instead of seeing that scene, i introduce to you the rich and wealthy side of india. when i think of india, i think of the english teacher, the book that was my o level text. i wonder if malgudi's lawley extension looked like that >>

hotel at mundra
this is their highway, their america's route 66. its kinda narrow, have no designated lanes. hopefully no vehicle derails or it will cause mayhem, i reckon.
expansive land.
4. bilbao, spain


central bilbao
hey! the spider has moved across 2 continents and thousands of miles!
if you dont get what i mean, this is in bilbao...
while the same thing is in roppongi district, tokyo, japan. how coincidental, eh?

bilbao wet market. im sure this image will enrage animal activists. and its rather disgusting. behind those beheaded heads are sausage stuffed with their meeat. totally EW , just dont display the heads, please. typical scene of a wetmarket in spain

still bilbao
historical places, looks like those in prague, czech republic!
i wonder if they hired the same architect in both bilbao AND in prague. the pictures look uncanningly similar.

narrow streets atypical of european countries. nice place, eh!

yeah these are some of the places that are really beautiful and after watching discovery travel and living almost every moment, there are so many more places that are breath taking. totally impossible to have 'around the world in 80 days'. more like 80 years!
look out for updates - hongkong - dec 07 and korea, jan 08.
till then , i gotta save lotsa moolah. thats why if i dont go out or hang out with ya'll or suddenly become so money conscious and am aware of where every penny goes, you know the reason. im saving up, to pay for everything when im overseas. financial crisis - in progress, struggling, and hopefully i can make it through! difficult, but will sure be worth it ^^

THIS BLOG'S BLOGGER IS UNDERGOING MAJOR OVERHAUL
JUGGLING LEARNING A LANGUAGE, PARTYING LIKE A ROCKSTAR, MANAGING HER OWN FINANCES, FINDING A JOB, BATTLING HER WEIGHT PARANOIA AND MAKING SURE EVERYTHING IS ALRIGHT, SHE WILL TRY HER BEST AND FIND THE TIME TO EMERGE REVAMPED, NEWER AND BETTER.
TILL THEN, WAIT.

if you think my life is all fun, here's an insight to what a lazy day for me is:

930-10 wake up
10-1030 breakfast : frozen yoghurt (yoplait)/fruit parfait, apple juice, knackebrod/waffles with maple syrup
1030-12 watch movie
12-1245 swim
1245-115 suntan
115-2 sauna
2-3 lunch-tea: green salad, macaroons of different flavors, scones/cake, lemonade
3-5 sleep, watch tv
5-6 do some work
6-8: play piano/learn a language
8-930 - dinner: pita (with fillings)/tapas , pasta/rosti, salad of a differnt kind, lobster bisque/mushroom soup, enbarsdrika

(if theres sth on schedule, then plan changes from 6)


okay this sounds like some couch potato/lazy pig/ food gourmet's lifestyle


haha i am a food connoiseur and that is sth i cant deny

after o's, go brazilian/swedish/spanish/french with me okay!

i must say this.

WHAT THE BLEH!

today's lit consultation and some ppl from ep decided to gatecrash (oops) so oh well. e more e merrier.we didn't have questions to ask anyway.

so this weird guy from cr comes in (shant say the name but its pretty obvious). he talks weirdly, looks weird and IS very weird. its not that i care about looks and didn't mind e ep ppl gatecrashing (because they look quite normal). but e moment he came in i couldn't stop laughin.

so he comes in and even though mr soon aint his teacha,

"hello mr soon. (stutters and mumbles incoherently). can i zzzzoin in? i hv a fiu questions'
we are good ppl so we allowed him in.

some weird lines from him:

'so do we have tuu compant (thats what i heard) the sources. must we use the compant' this sentence was reiterated like 5 times and no one understood.

'so what about the eeeeshu (bah blahblah)'

all these while yiting and i kept laughin to ourselves and it was quite bad i admit but we couldn't help it. there was this point where i just couldn't stop shaking and tears actually came out cos i was laughin like some loco freak.

then, everytime we laughed, the opposite guy saw and he wuld steal laugh (they say its tou xiao). i like -steal-laugh- expressions they're hilari0us!\

after the ep ppl went off the cr guy insisted to say. mr soon was being quite funny and mean cos he kept saying shoo and go away and stuff like that to the guy. cos afterallwe booked him and are his students, not that guy. so the cr guy was like pleading. and we settled that he could sit in but couldnt say a word or ask to elaborate. how mean!

haha enuff of that incident

anyway the results thingo is out on the ugly green canteen board near the vending machines.

yiting counted that 32 (OR 34 cant remb) of our whole class ARE ON THAT LIST! HOW GREAT! i love me class keep it up pple!


okay so monday is a big day and tuesday is a even bigger day. this weekend's gonna be tough. lets pull through and hope that my disgusting inconsiderate loud and uncivilised new (ind***) neighbours would cooperate and maybe realise that they need to lower their tv volumes, talking volumes, jingles of their bangles (maybe due to dancing in preparation for deepavali),considering to cover their mouths when they sneeze and not sneeze so loudly like theres no tmrw and make my bed and walls vibrate and lastly, to just GET OUT OF MY SIGHT (not literally) and mAKE THEMSELVES UNHEARD AND UNSEEN AND WHATeVER.

(see above paragraph. in literature, run on lines are indicative of a state of mind. go figure)

reality check in midway!
hmm isn't it funny that you will never get contented with what you have? does that make you a perfectionist or somene who strives to get the best outta the situation?
i get freakin high marks for my mathematics and i aint happy as there were careless mistakes and that the average in my class is pretty high (in fact, very high). i become euphoric for seeing my essay distributed to the whole level although the marks i obtained and my name was not there. it was joyous as i never thought i could get that grade out of that juvenile, no-substance essay that didn't have any high-level vocab. and that euphoria lasted for a really short time. and then i began to contemplate why couldn't i get a higher mark. i am satisfied with the a1 i get in chemistry. and i keep thinking, you get 75, you get a1. you get 95, you still get a1. it doesn't really make any difference on your result slip then! i merely scraped through that a1 and am happy, but when i see all the people around me getting their mid-80s, my happiness vanishes. why must we always compete with each other? i think that our greatest enemy and competitor is ourself. but no one realises that in society. in life, everything's about RANKING and where you stand AMONG others. to me, i find that utterly pathetic.
i can well say that my results are so far alright, or maybe that my expectations were not that high. in fact i find my goals so much more lower than the others. but that, my friends, is how i find happiness and solace in that pathetic figure of numbers.
and isn't it weird to see a dark spot on your result grade? for this i meant my chinese. i thought i'll do okay, maybe get a b3 cos my marks have been improving. but to my chagrin and utter dismay, out came a d7. it was really shocking and during that few moments of calculating the final result, realisation dawned on me that i really gotta start brushing up on this subject i've alienated myself from since primary school. i dont want to fail and take chinese if i go to college (that is if im going!). no chinese for me, please!
so now, the dilemma comes again. college or polytechnic? i know everyone would tell me, go to a top jc. don't waste your potential cos you are really good! why go to a poly if you can easily go to a top jc? well, people. im not as great as ya'll think. i feel like giving up every now and then. but i see that light at the end of the road, though blur and distant. i tell myself that all i need is to suffer hell for 2 mths, and then next year, i'll get my fucking good results and have a better life knowing that i didn't disappoint and compromise my future by not studying hard enough. as my father said, only look in front, not back. i totally concur. but, i really am different from everyone out there. i talk differently, and most importantly, think differently. i dont believe in following societal norms. i believe in stepping out of the boundary and doing whatever suits your heart most, though it must be sensible and practical of course! so alright enough of this crap. which is better? i wish i had a vision or some enlightenment tellin me what i should choose.
till then, i have to shift my focus. i have to shift from relaxing and doing whatever pleases me. i have to stop thinking about the latest fashion, the latest look, the latest trends going on now.i have to place a sentry to block my mind of all thoughts of boys, you know what i mean. i have been getting lots of ISSUES with them. i have to change my lifestyle a little, actually DRASTICALLY. i have to start studying. and seriously, this time round.
NO MORE MISTAKES, cheri. NO MORE REGRETS, gabrielle. NO MORE , NO MORE.
por siempre tu, god.

IRONY

isn't it ironic?

that you expect THIS to happen, but in the end, THAT happened?

isn't it ironic?

how you never expected this matter to turn out well but in the end it turned out so well it baffled you?

isn't it ironic?

that you never expected another matter to turn out badly but in the end it turned out so bad it overwhelmed you?

isn't it ironic?

that you get the things you want MOST in your life when you LEAST EXPECTED it, thus givin you a surprise?

isn't it ironic?

the world is an enigma that no one can ever solve.


this is getting really emo!

fredag, september 07, 2007
you see:


a typical teenager. lookin rather okay.
probably at home studyin or restin.



wow. this girl's pupil is really huge. wide-eyed? with? love? no my friends, wide-eyed due to poisonin of bella donna.


she doesn't spend time at home doin 'normal' stuff like other 'normal' teens would be doin. she promised never to get back to her old habit that she indulged in, two painful years ago. and now, the habit's got to her. SELF-MUTILATION.


she just can't stop. and even if she wants to, it won't allow her to. IT just continues, on and on. looks pretty much like a french manicure, if she leaves it for three seconds, no? it freakin hurts, but she can't help it. this life is breakin her down.
she has to find a solution.

she has to kiss goodbye to her life, which was never more than a seemingly perfect facade.

au revoir...

5 things you didn't know about me:

1. i am originally centre-parted, and still am.
2. i like countrysides and suburbs more than shopping centres.
3. i sleep on a double decker bed.
4. i love to eat.
5. i have a weight obsession and have distorted views about image.

i'm sure one or another is something you don't really know. and there ive said it!

it just ran so heavily suddenly and it was quite amusin seein all e teachers and students struggle. with my freakin mini jap brolly, bigm and lilt borrowed a spoilt brolly from the general office and we walked out in the pourin rain.


they're all freakin freakin drenched. i wasn't that good either:

our sox got sooo wet and our shoes were disgustin. so we actually went to buy flip flops from ripcurl! damn cheap too!

yeah and HAIRSPRAY WAS THE BESTTTT!!! it had such a clear hidden message bout the racism btw whites and blacks. sooo meaninful. and did i say, i love broadway plays!

so after that, we shopped at DAISO for teacher's day pressies and we walked for a realalalaay long time. after that. went to muh fav. gloria jeans and i finally got my salad.

evn the receipt had muh big name xd:


i received a huge surprise at gloria jeans. but oh well xD

after that roamed for quite a while. and its alright, yiting! dont needa feel bad haha


oh yeah b4 we left we went outdoors to make a video for mrs INDRA! it was hilarious and we were luffin like hyenas and attractin all e attention. and big m is finally smilin properly:

i'm 2 days late, but happy 42nd (42 rite?) birthday singapore, my homeland! (okay i sound very patriotic)

so jos and i have been arrangin to hang out together for a raelly long time so finally there's these few days of vacation! so we decided to head to sentosa to take some pictures for out album and also to check ppl out (yeah rite).
we're like freakin tourists. and really muddle-headed. and jos took the japanese map. hahaa.

took e monorail from vivocity. then we reached! it wasn't quite as sunny as we'd expect it to be. jos was like, how bout my tan!!!

and there were lotsa ppl there. maybe cos of the public holiday. and not that im racist or wadeva. but 80% of e ppl there were mainland chinese and indians. like north south east west all around u were indians! and they were really loud.
we were quite unprepared. forgot to bring picnic mats to sit on! i forgot to bring towel and stuff. and it was only two of us, which made us feel quite awkward.

so in e end we rested our freakin asses on the sand. then we realised that we opened an ants hole. right on!

jos looks so happy. and thin.


i felt really restrained by my big white camisole. was my mom's. and i felt real old with it. so what the hell. i took it off and those indian men were like... ~!@#$%^&.

my hair looks short from here

then here comes messy hair.

oh yeah the indians just placed their duffel bags in front of where we were sitting and took off their pants. they jumped into the water wearing their underwear, not swimsuit! crikey/


okay. some last picture b4 those indians pissed me off and we went to palawan. and i hereby highlight i AM NOT A RACIST. its just that they happened to be in the way.
so we went to palawan which was much more crowded and sunny. yay!! ideal for suntanning. so we jumped into the dirty murky green waters cos e heat was overbearing. and we told ourself to keep our heads above e water. e water stank. and this indian man;s beach ball landed on the water, causing all e water to splash on my face. damn its salty. and thanks

after dippin ourselves we went to sit. we used the japanese map as our 'picnic map' . thats called innovation xD.

so jos and i talked about really private stuff that i wouldn't even dare ask anyone. like really private stuff. she talked bout her troubles, i talked bout mine. shes e best sista i could ever have. thanks ya! and so we decided to drown our sorrows in chocolate and nachos.









talked there for a really long time. l8r asked this guy to take this pic of us before we left.



oh yeah. a final dip. jos lookin freakin thin again. sigh/
and again before we left, we kinda destroyed this couple's sandcastle. this was before. i didn't take e after picture, my bad.and jos insisted we beta leave our mark. so there u go. the date was awesome. 9/8/7.



yup so my father was very near and we decided we could get a lift from him!
final view of the scenic sentosa.


lookin quite sunburnt and tired. okay jos is still quite fair.

alright. our next destination - raffles the plaza hotel! we were there to catch the national day parade. karen paid $470 a nite for it. rich rich rich, man! view from our balcony:



those red dots are ppl/!!




we felt a bit bored. and realised we could do with some spa. so i sneaked in entry and lied point blank to the person in the face i was 18. im gettin better at this.

oh yeah b4 e spa we went to swim.
we were chattin on the sunchair when suddenly i saw a big red singapore flag flyin past.

so everyone got high. ppl came outta their hotel room, screamed and waved. i stood on the sunchair, jumped, screamed and all e caucasians were loookin at me. oh well. my country what!

didn't manage to take pic. but that was what i got.

oh yeah i think i have high resistance. even tho e pool was cold, i could withstand it. jos was shiverin within the first minute! so after 5 mins we left e pool. headed towards e spa. we looked quite funny walkin around e hotel with wet towels draped over my bodies. haha

on the way to the spa, i realised how luxurious life can be. there's private aromatherapy rooms and u can just faint (in a good way) when u get a whiff of those oils.


so we went in. and its freakin posh! used the cold plunge (5degcel), bubble pool, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi. then we started pouring out our troubles again. and i feel we are like tais tais. my aspiration. (right).



jos says she looks like an anorexic corpse and i really agree
you can really get emo at this place.
ah. toilet.

e steam in the steam room's like at 100degcel. it got real hot in the hot rooms and real cold in the cold pool. my skin was like on a rollercoaster (not very app. comparison)
l8r we kinda sensed the fireworks were bout to come out. so we drank some water, and dashed to the hotel room. we could hear the fireworks in the lift. the impact was quite great. when we reached the hotel room, it had already started. awwwwww. i took a video of almsot the whole thanng. will upload l8r.
anyway after that- the view




tryin to be emo
actin happppy
and so we hung out tilll quite late. i went home with michael and family. and sleptreally well. jos and i both agreed that our skin was really pampered and we felt awesome after the spa!
and i just realised that the first girls store opened in singapore at raffles city shoppin centre! girls is like a really girlie shop selling girlie stuff. abit childish but it's awesome! its much more ex compared to prices in msia tho. ah i love that shop soooo much! so happy that they finally opened
ANYWAY, SHORT summary
fri i watched secret with big m, filbert and wilmer. i made m wait for me for 30 mins. hahahaa ps. e movie's quite unexpected, with twists in the plot. ah okay. then m and i got spastic. the four of us mainly just walked around e whole of vivocity acting crazy (m). fortunately she broughtcards! so we played then we went home. then i went to tampines with my family.
and today! woke up real early. sent parents off. felt a bit sad. but now, e whole house is mine!!!!!!!
but ya'll know imma gooood girl. i won't do anything stupid xD


im alone now.
