a colored spectrum

little many tinkles

Have you ever took that little time out to think about your friends,
Have that sudden thought "gee... what is she/he doing now? is she/he happy?"

reminisce the long lost times, from the very moment you met, how much you hated each others guts then one day, after a big argument, realized that you could be friends?
or miss the time she/he hide behind the pillar to only spring out with a surprise birthday cake and present? remember the times where few of you organized a slumber party, played pillow fight and chat about everything till 6am then fell asleep on each other? be filled with that momentarily nostalgia...

sure that everyone has kinda grown up a little bit, busy with school and their own boyfriends/girlfriends. but time is managed by human. if you think that you haven't met up with your close friends for quite some time, take the time out to do so. no harm done, lots of benefits. it keeps that relationship between alive, and makes sure that all of you are still 'connected'.

don't wait till the day when you find "eh, how come we like so strangers now? nothing to talk about?" well, that is 'coz you haven't been putting in real effort to keep sparks in that friendship flying? ok, that is my opinion. by my point being, go that extra mile, even in a friendship. give more concern, love and attention, and you would receive much more in return. don't take your friends for granted.

few people in life would hate you, hurt you, cheat you.
you wish you have not met them, or better still, had the ability to kill them and not suffer legal punishment. think positively, there are so many more people who love you, need you, appreciate your existence. these are the people who really matter. thus, out of 100 friends, you have 10 bastards/jerks/sluts/bitches. that is 10%...... not a bad deal, could so without them though. nevertheless, focus your energy on the nice happy 90% of your social circle and you would find life more colorful and enriching.


Ever wondered why good looking guys end up with average girls, and pretty babes end up with average guys?

irony of life.

those who think that they are so damn good looking, charming and photogenic have big ego. so huge that it could swallow Jupiter. by the way, brains not included. they don't really think before they speak, (1) what they say doesn't makes sense. tends to self contradict. (2) reflects childish thoughts. try this the next time, when you are with a group of people, don't speak much. just keep quiet and listen to their conversation. mark the content and opinions. do it a few times, over several gatherings. then evaluate the person silently.

Disclaimer: non applicable with respect to bastards/sluts who are out to cheat you right from the start. (reference - cheat you in every sense. ) they can put up a good plastic front, act their way through all situations, lie their way to innocence, and malign you for things you never did in actions or words, last of all, poison your name. they have this ability to even cheat on you right under your nose without you knowing it. be very wary of people... especially when you don't know them as friends and they start trying to get friendly with you.

Never ever date people you meet at clubs, keep those as flings.
better still, don't even take their numbers or date them even once.
i am serious.

today..... i was quite busy with 2 lectures. met Qiao Ling to attend Vanity Fair at 2pm. nothing much really. didn't manage to buy any cosmetics or perfumes. too few variety. not exactly good deals either. alot of items which i don't need. opps... sorry Luke! i totally forgot to meet you for fruit juice at Arts Canteen at 3pm! i was with Qiao Ling having Iced Chocolate at Olio Dome UCC... treat u to banana jucie next time k?

met Joshua at 6. took a short evening walk from FASS to SRC bus stop. that was nice. i really enjoy our daily evening strolls... it can be anywhere, in campus, in the neighbourhood estate, at the beach.... doesn't matter. just the both of us, hand in hand, chatting away, share our thoughts, tell silly jokes etc... it's very comfortable. i like it alot. it doesn't matter where we are, what we do, but it is really who we are spending our time with which makes that very difference.

on our way down to Orchard, we ran into Ron on Bus 95. good to see him and catch up a bit, great to know that he's been to all those cool places doing fun things in Europe during SEP. wow! last month, he was jetting all around Asia, making short trip getaways to Bali and Jakarta. learnt alot about foreign culture. nice!

Venue: Renn Thai Restaurant, Ngee Ann City Tower A, 4th storey.
Food: 2.5 / 5 stars
Service: 2 / 5 stars
Ambience: 2 / 5 stars

we had out dinner at Renn Thai Restaurant today. pseudo classical Thai interior designs, with all those tacky looking metal lotus and head-gear ornaments with glittery mosaic tiles. wooden panelled walls. green celadon dishes. thai pop music in the background. alot of Caucasian with their SPG partners dining in.

service was quite slow. they only had 2 waiters and 2 waitresses. so couldn't really work effectively.

the food was relatively authentic. we had 4 dishes. the Seafood Tom Yam Soup was good! it was sour and sweet, yet not too spicy, had the strong fragrance of herbs like lemongrass and lemon-leaves. very platable! must try! $12 for a 2-pax earthern pot. Grilled Chicken in Pandan Leaf was ok. $12. can do without. chicken was well seasoned and succulent. but... just not too unique to make it a worthwhile try. the Yam-Basket with Asparagus and Scallops was not bad. the asparagus was fresh and stir fried lightly so was still crunchy and sweet. but the scallops were huge and not that fresh. could have done without and gave me more asparagus! $14 for a small portion, $18 for medium. lastly... was the Pineapple Fried Rice. my Mum could cook better than that, i can't see the pineapple cubes or any other ingredients. and the rice was lukewarm... and grainy. didn't seem like a freshly made fried rice.... can do without despite looking delicious. $9.60 for 2-pax portions. skip the desserts. not nice. my Water-Chestnuts with shaved ice and coconut milk.... was disappointing. the water-chestnuts dipped in tapioca flour had too much flour, and it formed this hard chewy shell around that tiny bit of chestnut! urgh....

anyway, no matter what, still far far better than that disgusting Thai Express! =)

every single thing can suck during a bad day.
but with your beloved one beside you, every thing would seem bearable.
