Thumpitty Thumping Girls!

So yesterday was our last day of JCL training, we all passed our exams and we went out to Thumpers to celebrate!!!

Actually, its just an excuse to party la. ;p

So the plan was to meet at Gwen's place at 1030pm (she lives abt a 10min walk away). So i was walking walking to her place, reached her floor, suddenly realised i couldnt remember her unit number, dug into my bag and ARRRGHHHHHHHH! NO HANDPHONE!

I freaking HATE that. It keeps happening to me dammit.

Stood there telling meself not to panic, TRIED to eliminate each unit on the floor but in the end just didnt have the guts to press the doorbell of the unit i guessed (AND I GUESSED RIGHT! I mean, i was dressed up to go clubbing, if i knocked on the wrong door at 1030pm, the family would think I was a very desperate door-to-door hooker...).

So i went back down and proceeded to walk home, got tired, hailed a cab, told him i need him to drive me to Street 12 and then back to Street 13.

Finally reached their place at 11pm. Joke of the century.

Got down to Thumpers, bloody happening. ;)

Met some new people. Some i tot were nice, some i dun have much to say about.. :/

I mean, this is a real conversation i had...

Guy: Are you married?
Me: No...
Guy: Then i can "go after" you la?
Me: *stunned* Er.. NO?
Me: *thinking in my mind* Argh! Go Away! Go Away!

(And this guy is a highly paid professional who so happens to be working for my company. Go figure. Yeeks.)

But overall I had a blast with the girls.. Of course the girls (not me ah!) were creating such a sensation.. ;)

And i must mention, I was a very good girl last night. Barely drank and din touch a stick. Happy? ;)

From Morning...


Our last day at Training Centre together! *sob*




We just LOVE taking stupid pics.. haha

...'Till Night!




Squeezing in a few shots before we leave home! ;)








At Thumpers!

I'm gonna miss all you girls!!!! *sob*

The Girls of 843

Im typing this in the middle of the night, half painting my nails, half typing... just because somebardy complained I have not updated my blog. Crap.

Anyway.. Back to The Girls!

Well actually it was only a few of us girls from Batch 843 who got together for JCL training this week.

So happy to see them! Back to talking cock, making dirty jokes about Pisang Rajas and all sorts or other inane stuff... :)

Sharing all our stories of flying around and all the risque stuff! ;p

And of course we did our usual - buy hoards of snacks from the auntie and munchedandcrunched throughout the lesson just to keep ourselves awake. ;p

Having a "Wet Run" tomorrow. WeiX asked, "wats a wet run?".

So i told him its where we run around soaking wet in our uniforms.

I could tell he liked the idea. Kinky... :)


Lovely Gwen! I wrote her a note during class saying i tot she looked so pretty today! heehee.


And Jothi has the most dazzling smile i know! :)


Love you girls!!!

Toilet Humor




Ron sent me this video. I watched it and laughed till i had a tummy ache! I know its so mean and crap humor (literally).. but its SO FARNEE! Hahahaha

Thanks Ron! *muax*

Time After Time...

Heard the Cyndi Lauper and Sarah McLachlan song, Time After Time, on radio the other night while in the car with keong..

I lovvvee this verson which they sang at the last Grammy's..

When I heard it... my heart just squeezed. U know that feeling? Lagi best it suddenly started to rain and I just watched the rain drops fall on the window. (So drama... ;p)

Who would think I would love a Cyndi Lauper song? But it really is so nice lor... So happy I managed to download it!

*sighsighsigh*

If you fall
I will catch you
I will be waiting
Time after time

Power or waatt.... :)

Okok.. change song. It has been playing for 5 times consecutively now.. hehehe.

*hums tune*

Speaking of songs, I was doing my facial the other day, and the supposedly "relaxing, mood music" was driving me freaking nuts.

Can u imagine a violin, instrumental version of "Tell Laura I Love Her". And Bee Gee's songs and God knows what other popular songs all in instrumental, violin, pan pipe kinda pattern??

I was glaring at the built-in speaker over my head while I had my face mask on. (Just imagine how that looks like) I was mentally cursing the CD and at the same time, the stupid lyrics of all the songs kept going through my head.

"TELL LAURA I LOVVVEEE HEERRRR"

The moment the CD replayed and I heard the damn "Laura" song a second time, I was ready to jump up, pull out a shot gun, scream and shoot the damn speaker above me to bits.

But alas, before I could do so, the beautician came back into the room and I was back to singing the lyrics in my head.

"TELL LAURA I NEEEEDDD HEERRR"

Bah.

Oh yeah! And Angie asked if my boobs got bigger after she saw this pic...



Haha... honestly i dun know sweetie. Must go take a feel test. Any volunteers? Hahaha.

Even if so, everything else abt my body is bigger too.. its called FAT! Dammit!

Surreal...

From Dictionary.com :

sur·re·al
adj.

Having an oddly dreamlike quality.

Sometimes, I feel that my life is so surreal.

I sit down and look back at whatever has happened and i ask myself.... Did what happen... really happen? And when i get up to look into the mirror... I see it.

It's always in the morning that you wake up and you wonder if everything was a dream.

Sometimes I feel like my life is like a movie in slow-mo. That Im not really that same person living this life or doing the things I do.

One minute, Im in Shanghai eating noodles and watching TV, and later that same day I'm at Pasir Ris Beach having fish and chips and watching soccer.

I dunno. My mind, my body and my heart are all confused.

Okok. Lets go on to other things.

Now I know this is old news and most of the people i know have found out about my latest splurge and ive been scolded already.. so.. here is my new baby! Gucci Gucci Goo! hahaha ;p

Lame.



Yes I'm High Maintenance. Geri does not come cheap. I think...

Will be in Singapore for a week for training. Happy to be at home, but not happy to be training for what Im training for.

Sigh.

With more knowledge comes more responsibilities.

I wish my life was simple.

Daddy's Day! :)

Happy Daddy's Day Daddy! *HUG*

I know sometimes I don't show my appreciation enough to you... how I always say u drive too slow.. hee. But I really thank you from the bottom of my heart for being there for me when you see im down.. and for waking up at odds hours of the morning to send me to and from work.

THANK YOU DADDY! :)



And I now know for sure what I want to be when i grow up! (Yes! I'm Still Growing!...Sideways. ;p)

I want to be a Muah Chee Seller! *WHEE!*

I had such fun making my own Muah Chee at the Hawker Buffet at Rendezvous Hotel! I did it with such skill and precision.. my deftness at handling the sticky dough with the tongs and scissors... coating the dough with just the right amount of peanuts.... *snipsniptosstoss*

MMMMmmm...

I was so happy I ran back to my mum and dad with my plate of Muah Chee (ie. work of art) and proudly declared, "MUM! I Want to be a Muah Chee Seller!", and plonked the plate of Muah Chee before her. I could tell she was proud of me. hahaha


My Work of Art! ;p Hahahahahhaa...


Savouring it! Yum...

Something else I must mention... My mother, the Queen of Corn(ee jokes)... made another classic joke! I told my mum to just leave her bag on the chair.. lets go get our food at the buffet. She seemed unsure about leaving her bag lying around without anyone to take care of it.. so i quoted to her Sharon's famous saying, "Dun worry... Jesus will protect".

She looked at me skeptically and deadpanned, "Yah, but skali we come back and go "Oh My God!""

I stood there and laughed for a full minute. Mum.. U're the best. :)

Had my fav Katsu Curry for dinner! Thanks dear for remembering and bringing me there! I LOVE JAP FOOD! *whee*



I cannot stop eating... This time I keep craving salt. Chips, fries.. my gosh. Even I'm terrified. I don't normally eat chips much at all. My tum's so round.. i keep standing in front of the mirror and worrying that.... oh well. ;p

This has got to end soon.

I finally CLEANED UP MY ROOM! Got sick of the mess and more sick of SOMEONE telling me my room is a mess. Sheesh. But I feel so much better now. Just one step to getting my life back in order! ;)

My sis is preparing a Peranakan feast for dinner tonight and everyone's invited to her place! MORE FOOD! *ack!*

But who cares. As my motto goes.. "Live for the Moment!"

;)

Open Arms...

*Geri Sings*
Lying beside you
Here in the dark
Feeling your heart beat with mine
Softly you whisper
You're so sincere
How could our love be so blind
.
.
.
Heard the song Open Arms by Journey last night at Pasir Ris beach... Power song. *sigh*
Anyway.....
Went to check out the Gucci sale today. Crap items on sale. Bleah.
Instead fell in love with OTHER items. DieDieDIE.



Hey look.... I Need a new wallet okie? The sides of my current wallet are all cracked/cracking... It costs me only 35bucks from Tangs and it has lasted me TWO years. Im entitled to get meself this wallet ... can? ;p



OkayOkay.... i KNOW. This bag is like damn taitai auntie-ish rite? But i like it lor! I'm a sucker for anything with bows and ribbons.. DAMMIT! But I wish only lah... in the end also will never buy la. *SIGH* I know it won't suit me. Shite.

Am I so high maintenence? I may like certain expensive items... but I dun think I'm difficult to maintain.. sheesh. I spend the money that I earn... I never expect my partner to buy me expensive items. (Though i wish la.... hahaha)

At the end of the day I'm still a simple girl at heart. I dun mind hawker food, I dun expect to live in a condo.. I'm happy with a four-room HDB as long as I can call it my own...

I dunno.. Wants and needs...

But one thing i know. I dun care. I NEED THAT WALLET.

Hee.. ;p

Its been honey honey and more Manuka honey here in Auckland... But damn nice la. Yummy.

Love the heart shaped honey lollies I bought... ate two in one night.. went back and bought more today!

*sucksucklicklick*

;)

Finally going back home tonight. Was SOOOO MAD yesterday... I wun mention who.. but there were SOME PEOPLE who were making SOOOO much noise from 4am - 7am this morning.. yelling, screaming and smoking (the smell was pouring into my room) till 7am! How many times i jerked awake in shock from female shrieks, male shouts and loud music pouring out from the room opposite mine.

I was SOO SOO Pissed. U have no idea how i felt at 5am, lying in my bed with my heart pounding in anger. I got up, opened the door to see if they had their door opened... they didnt but it was still SOOOO LOUD. I slammed my door closed loudly and they shut up-ed for a minute before it all started again.

I finally heard at about 6:30am, "Thanks for coming to my room!" And I was like FINALLY! THANK GOD! But the noise continued with the others still in that idiot's room. KNN...

Finally had a fitful sleep at 7am.. and woke up at 2pm. Super stoned now.. and i still gotta work tonight. sheesh.

Damn u inconsiderate people. *sticks out (ring) finger* hahaha.

Hey.. i didn't make a complaint okay.. Im still a nice person. :)

Back to Singapore tonight! Had a shock at my split ends.. will go cut hair tomorrow.

A friend of mine said he thought that I permed my hair. Oh man! I din know it's so curly...

"Did you do soft perm?"

Actually... I did soft rebonding. Sheesh. Wat the hell. At least he said it was nice.

*humph*

Growing Pains...

Stand up Geri.

Stop feeling pathetic. You're better than that.

It's time to suck it in, kick the devil's balls and punch life in the face. (ouch.)

Time to harden your heart, mind and soul.

Time to drop that samsoniteluggagesized Bag of Hurt and walk freely...

It's Time.

Dubai and Moscow!

Well I did already mention roughly what happened in Dubai.... And yes i was sick throughout this whole trip. I started out with a sore throat, then morphed to a fever, then in Moscow a cough, then finally UTI back in Dubai.

Miserable or wat.

But Im much better now. Nothing like home :)

So I mentioned about Dubai.. did the Safari Tour.. got sick..but thank God I was well taken care of and got much better pretty quick.

Got to visit Shireen and Kamar when I got back! Those two couldn't find my hotel and they were apparently FAR FAR FAR away from my hotel. I was waiting for the longest time outside for them and I got approached by this man... I was SO SCARED! I seriously think they thought I was a prostitute.... I called Shireen and was shrieking into the phone. They finally realised how far away they were from me so I had to take a damn cab to meet them, like a 15mins drive away can!!! Was near tears when I finally met them. *sniff*

But I'm glad I did. She drove me to their home... very nice! Im glad that they are happy in Dubai :)

Moscow was alll riigghhtt. Was kinda dissapointed. It was cold and dreary. The sky was overcast. And there wasnt much to see honestly. After visiting the red square, the rest of the sight seeing spots were pretty dissapointing.

Visited the Armory Museum and a couple of cathedrals in the Kremlin. Did you know we can't walk off the side walk and must cross at the designated zebra crossings in the Kremlin or else the police will start blowing their whistle at you...? Scary shite.

All in all I had a wonderful time during this trip. I learnt alot.. experienced alot. Alot of "first times" for me....

I made wonderful friends.. of which I will never forget and will always treasure.

*BIGSQUEEZYHUG*

You know who you are.. ;)

Dubai



VroomVroom! Ready to go dune bashing!


Sand Sand Everywhere! Literally... My shoes.. my bag... EVEN my camera. Dammit.


Nice shots taken by my friend.... I know I know... I take really bad shots okay?


Biggg Camel... Nice Camel.... They were literally charging to the food trough in every direction I was freaking out. See how their legs are tied? Poor thing... :(


Belly Dancing! Quite impressed...if only I could move my hips like her!


Apparently the stiffest in the group! ;p


Amirin and Me! Such a big boy now! :)


A very much skinnier Kamar.. Please fatten up boy!


Poor Shireen... dead tired after driving around the whole day... But so happy to see her! :)

Moscow


St Basil's Cathedral at the Red Square


I'm sorry.. but I really have no idea what building this is.. haha.


Cathedral of Christ the Saviour - the largest cathedral in Moscow.


Me getting crazy after a potent shot of vodka early in the morning on an empty tummy! BUT SHIOK! haha..


My giant 0.5Liter glass of cranberry juice. It was HUGE! but nice.. couldn't finish it though... ;p


Metro Station in Moscow. The artwork was surprising... and i nearly got stranded out of the train! The doors started to close while i was still outside and i screamed and forced my way in. U should have seen my face and my dear friends face as he bodily tried to hold the door back. Thank u! so schweet. hee. I tell u.. I was shaking for quite a while after that.

Last but not least...


See what I got! Five little puppies to take care of my laptop whenever I travel. I absolutely love it! :) *beam* I'm such a sucker.

Ignore Me! ;p

Sorry guys for my last two depressing posts...

Was in a "mood" but im better now. :)

I promised that this would be a happy blog. Not a "bleeding heart" blog.

So back to happier times!

Dumdeedum....

Can't Seem To Make Up My Mind...

I can't decide which is the best way to kill myself....

I figure there are the three most common ways..

1. Taking a whole buncha pills
2. Slash Wrists
3. Jumping

Ok.. so Option 1 seems dodgy... What if I don't die? I may take a whole lotta pills, and coz i take sooo many pills and bloat myself with water (I need to take one pill at a time with half a glass... so i figure if I take 30 pills, that would set me back 15 glasses of water???). So if I drink that many glasses, I would literally puke and out comes my hard work.

Damn. On to Option 2.

Slashing wrists is scary... A teacher once told my class that slashing ur wrists horizontally does not work... It apparently does not cut into the vein deep enuf. To really bleed to death... You have to slash yourself from your wrist downwards. Honestly.. I think it takes too long and damn I think it would hurt.. Think of the mess in the bathroom.. My mum would have a fit.

So Im left with my last choice. I dunno.. I can't even do bungee jumping or sky diving. Much less plunge to my death.. And to be honest... Im vain. Can't imagine looking like a piece of meat scraped up from the sidewalk in my coffin. I can imagine my relatives jumping back from the coffin when they come to visit. (Wait a min... people recoiling from me in horror sounds familiar...) Anyway I want to be a nice ghost who helps other lost souls.. not one who looks disgusting enuf to scare the poor taxi drivers late at night.

Anyway, If I know my luck... the more I want to die, the more likely I will end up alive.

This sucks. Thats the problem with me....

I can just never seem to make up my mind about life... and death.

WAIT! I GOT IT!

I'll take 3 pills, nick my finger, and close my eyes and roll from the top of my stairs.

I Like That!

Wish me luck people! :)

A Moment Like This...

The Voice whispered to me, "Live for the moment..."

My lips did not say a word.

But my heart replied, "I can't. For I wish the moment lasts forever..."

Sick as a Pig...

It sucks to be sick... especially when in DUBAI!!!

Its soooo hot.. the weather is abt 47 Degrees Celcius in the day... even walking out at night burns the skin..

The worse part about being sick here, the food is all spicy, barbequed or fried! Sighhh... God knows what is there to eat in Moscow...

I came back last night with a fever... prbably should have known better and not gone for the damn Safari Trip... But I can say it was an.. er.. "interesting experience". Like sitting a roller coaster in a car... I was freaked out for the first 15mins... but for the next half and hour, it became tiresome and I literally went numb from being jerked around and getting bruised in the ribs by the seatbelt. Ouch.

Went back... woke up halfway with a fever at night. :(

Throat now inflamed. Tonsils swollen again.

Will post the photos of Dubai another day.

Sigh. Still gotta work tonight. Off to Moscow. *scaredscared*

Lights! Camera! ACTION! *kiap!*

Haha... i like my *kiap*.. hahaha.

;p

I had great fun with Ron at MovieWorld! It's just so damn fun to go out with her! ;) It's her FOURTH time there! She's so nice to want to bring me there lor...

Chionged out and met Ron at 8:45am (I only reached my hotel at 7:30am!!). Slept like a pig on the train to GoldCoast... Can u imagine, two girls, zzz-ing, with their feet propped up on the chair opposite them. SO AUNTIE! But I honestly didn't care. hahaha.

Finally arrived at MovieWorld at 11:30am (we had a minor train blooper.. but I shall not elaborate coz Ron will just get upset all over again...).

We sat most of the rides.. but i refused to take the Superman and Lethal Weapon rides.. I'm sorry.. I'm chicken shit okie? :p

BUT! We sat the Scooby Doo spookie coaster... TWICE! Just coz the first pic taken on the ride did not turn out nice... haha. So we planned the second shot and bought the pic! :) During the first ride I didn't make a sound.. and Ron kept yelling at me, "Geri? Are you ok???!" Maybe she thought I passed out... haha.

We went around taking silly photos and posing with the characters. I kinda wanted to put my arm around Batman and Robin but when i touched battie's super stiff rubber suit.. I kinda freaked out. hahaha.

I really liked their Police Academy stunt show! I was so fooled into thinking one of the cast members was really part of the audience! The best part was, he was sitting behind me and I was like totally cheering him on like an idiot. HAhahaha.... I'm SO guillible can??

Met up with Ming the King and their housemates for dinner... So nice to see them again! Ming is SO SKINNY! Ron... u better feed him more...

Going for my facial now... Im having like MAJOR breakout. WHYWHYWHY? Maybe it's coz i having too many Tim Tams.... Dammit. *munchcrunch*
