Hi, I wanna play a game

Hello, this halloween pictures have been sitting in my draft section for the longest period of time and i still haven't found my motivation to get working on it. (So please don't expect much from this post. Also, i've posted on my dayre way way ahead in october. I'd suggest you read my dayre more than you read my blog hahah)

Anyways if you remember, DMC had our very own halloween party last year and attendance was compulsory so all of us attended that. I went as half a skull and it was very fun painting my own face and dress up and everything else like taking pictures, playing games and it goes on. 

Here's a picture of it. (i didn't really put in my thoughts on what to wear so i threw on a basic romper and was good to go. At least that's what i thought. Didn't turn out too bad so all is good)

This year, I was pretty bummed out because there was no halloween party for DMC but only CASS. (DMC is my course, CASS is the school. Just in case you're wondering) 

After serious consideration, I decided I don't wanna miss the last halloween party (next year internship boohoo)(not gonna tell you what i went as yet)

We crashed Lynette's place to dress up and put on make up and eat and chill and rest. It was fun. I mean dressing up is always fun. 

(thicken my brows)

and after two hours plus in lynette's house drawing and drawing on my face, i was done!!! Thank you guys for the help and esp. dan for doing up my eye. I still can't do eyeshadow for nuts…

TA DAH!!!! I'M JIGSAW!!!!

I put in so much effort for the attire too. To be in blazer and pants and bow tie! Although the pants aren't the right pants but whatever la hor hahah

(whispers) Last year the same time i got frightened by Jigsaw in the lecture hall. It was not fun. I screamed so loudly and my friends sat at the side and laugh at me. These type of friends also have. So this year, i'll go as Jigsaw and frighten people too. I managed to scare like a couple of people when walking from class to the party place. 

Went to class looking like Jigsaw and Mr Tan was super cool with it hahah. He gave me the 'are u alright' face tho. (always judging me pfft) (hahah best lecturer tho) (cool dude) (chill as heck dude)

Immediately after class i met up with rach and the rest. I really do like the colour o my lips that day, i didn't even want to remove it at night. It's like a dark maroon purplish, i love!

Below are just picture I took individually with them. 

Rach as the divergent girl. Idk what's her name. Tricia or something.

Sum was a vamp

Dan as the bunny in Alice in wonderland i think… 

Renae was sugar skull. 

Sx i think er purge dude? 

Xenia was 'A' from pretty little liar. 

Lynette as a cat! (sexy cat)

I just love how sporting our class is always attending events like this full on dressed up and damn steady one. Class picture. Second halloween and probably also the last.

Starbucks card cause I won best dressed! How often do I actually win things hahah. But thank you CASS club for the starbucks card. (Days before i was just telling van how adorable the snowman card is and i got it yay!!! double yay!!!)

Thank you for reading I know this post is pretty shitty. Till next time bye!

BOO

The heart is a funny thing

It's funny how I'm missing someone I barely even knew. It's funny just how many times you're crossing my mind. The sight of you makes my heart flutters. I long and crave for that sight again.

It's the heart that's funny or just me?

2 weeks to go?!

Dear it's crazy how days flew by so quickly, it's down to two weeks till sisterbear is home and I can't wait! (Bummed out cause I'll be in school and won't be picking her up from the airport. Or i just might skip the damn lessons) 

We've been texting and skyping her and i'm very thankful and glad she is doing well over in London. Her classes are more or less done and the last two weeks, she'll be roaming UK with her friends. I hope she get me shoes and clothes hehe. 

BUT YES OK 

And on a side note, i passed my basic theory test and final theory evaluation AND will be on the road starting next week i'm super super excited!!!!!! 

Will I do the same?

Having Choco has changed me in many many many ways and very often, i'd like to think of these changes as something positive. He has indeed changed many things, the way i react, my fears and most definitely how i see life.

Ever since this little one joined our family one year ago, I knew there were things that aren't going to be the same anymore. Every decision we make, we have to consider the fact we have a puppy at home. One the biggest change ever since his arrival was the fact that i'm no longer afraid of dogs. The fact that  I love dogs more than anything else. Overcoming my fear of dogs has never been easy. I never thought this day would arrive, where I get to hold a dog in my arms, receive his unconditional love and very wet kisses, falling asleep next to him or just even being able to walk him on a leash.

So back to the question and the main point of the whole post - Will I do the same?
I've been reading shelter stories, dog stories, putting dogs down, etc.
And I ask myself. If one day puppy falls very very ill, will I decide to put him down?

I'd have tears welling up in my eyes because i know i fear that day. I'm afraid. I'm scared. Really.

But my answer as of now?
Maybe, probably.

I used to think putting your dog down is a very selfish act and shld never be a legal thing to do. This, i only mean sick and dying dogs. OTHER THAN THAT MENTIONED, YES EUTHANASIA FOR DOGS OR ANY ANIMALS IN THAT MATTER OF FACT SHLD BE ILLEGAL (FULLSTOP)
How can you bear to put your dog down to sleep when you've spent so many years together. Knowing the very next day, he won't be there to greet you good morning, he won't be there to greet you at the door? My heart aches. And it aches very badly.

But now, I guess it's the only thing an owner would do for the one family member they love so dearly right. It takes a stronger person make such a decision isn't it?

Because the day you decide the bring him home, call him and regard him as your family member, is the day you promise to provide nothing but the best for the little one. You'd shower him with all the love and take care of him with all your heart.
Read this list of ten promises:

You'll hate to see him suffer, so you'll do whatever you can to take that suffering away from him. 

Please don't get me wrong. Choco is a very healthy dog and just turned two. Ok, maybe other than his rashes, he is a good boy and definitely growing up well. It's just that when i stumble across articles related, i like putting myself into thoughts and think how exactly would i react if i were in their shoes. 

I will be volunteering for SOSD flagday this year and i'm very happy to be back volunteering and doing something meaningful. It'll be on the 9th of oct (Sun) around orchard area, so do donate if you see people with SOSD tin cans ok!!! A little help can go a long way! :)

Grandma's Birthday

Was out for dinner last week as an advance birthday celebration for grams. Advance because cousin will be taking his o'levels this week. Speaking of that, I still can't believe it's been two years now since I sat for mine. All the midnight mugging and memorising and dying cause i know i'll do badly for math and every other things. Definitely not something i want to go through all over again. But in all seriousness, o'levels isn't that bad... 

I side tracked a bit too much. 

Now back here, dinner was Jumbo @ Changi resort. I finally found an occasion to pull out my stripe maxi and wear it. I can't even remember when i bought it, definitely sometime back already. 

Dinner was alright. Nothing really special, seafood, fish, crab, noodles. Yea.

6 of us only because sis is in london. I was being a very good sister, sending her pictures of out dinner. You're welcome sis. :) (i'm kidding, she wanted to kill me cause she wants crab too. Go and eat your fish and chips bye)

I can't wait for sis to be back so we can all head out for outings like USS and singing and movies and eating. And school is reopening in two days time. What on earth really. How did time flew by this quickly... When is the next holiday again? 

Once Again

Inspirations, ideas and more ideas come to me all at once but I can never and will never have the time and strength to make them all come to life.

Since the start of script writing class I was bent and told myself one day I want to write a script from scratch and see it come to life. The story will revolve around the idea of romance and a cafe. I'm a sucker for romance, it's not a surprise I want a to produce a film like that. To have the setting in a cafe has always been something on my bucket list and definitely a place I picture to be with my partner, looking at him and falling in love all over and over again. 

Nothing fancy. 

No long love messages, no hugs, no kisses. Just talks over coffee. 

I was definitely also fascinated by the whole idea behind strangers. The term strangers, ask ourselves, ask yourself, how would you define it?

Haven't it struck you before and thought to yourself how beautiful and absolutely amazing it is that one day we'll meet this stranger along the way, thinks he is such a cutie, become friends, slowly falls in love, might or might not get together? Possibly get your heart broken, then start all over again? The only thing then holding the both of you away from the term strangers are the memories you created and forged together.

Will you then take or give the chances again?

How many times have you pushed away the chances life presents you? Or how many times have you decided that you will not give someone a chance to show you how they feel about you? How would things have been different if you opened yourself and accepted such possibilities, take and give the chances and make the best out of it?

When things don't turn out the way after trying over and over again, at least what's left are memories not regrets. There again then there will be times we feel inferior, we think we aren't worthy of everything. 

Definitely for me as well, there were times, in fact many times I was in confusion because I ask myself if I was worthy of everything, if things I did were right.

Am I allowed to think this way?

Am I allowed to feel like that?

Do I deserve what I'm receiving. 

I tell myself the answer is no. 

Is it ok I look back at the memories and smile thinking of that particular person?

Is it ok I think of you sometimes?

Is it ok I miss you sometimes?

Is it ok even for you to cross my mind?

Is it ok then for me to look at your from afar and hope you're doing fine?

I tell myself the answer is no, it's not ok. It's never ok. 

Is it too much to ask for?

When I ask to have someone there to hold and reassure me when I'm in doubt?

When I ask nothing but a simple meal with you?

When I ask for the both of us to spend saturday together chilling on the couch watching your favourite movie even when it'll bore me to tears. 

When I ask that you really don't have to 24/7 there, just promise to be when I need you?

When I ask for the both of us to be sitting in front of the game console playing games. I'll pretend to get mad because you won again?

When I ask for you to open yourself so I can understand you better?

When I ask that you accompany me on shopping trips, waiting outside dressing rooms and telling me if I look good in the pink dress?

When I ask for you to sacrifice your sleep so we can catch the sunrise?

When I ask you pull me into your embrace even when I said to leave me alone?

When I ask for you to pretend to be surprised at my surprises because i'm bad at them?

When I ask when we squabble and bicker, promise we'll not let it last more than a day? 

Or just when I ask for you to allow me to cross your mind once in a while. 

It's so simple, such little things that mean a lot. We all want a fairytale love story. We want to date with the intention of never splitting up. 

Let's start from the beginning all over again shall we? Enjoy the process of meeting, the happiness, the heart flutters and falling in love. Be willing to give the chance and be brave to take the chance life presents you. We never know what will happen if we don't try. 

In the end, you don't want to be left with the regrets for the chances you didn't take. Do you?

Love is such a beautiful thing. It's also frustrating and definitely confusing isn't it? It's strange how it makes your heart flutter but also makes your heart ache. One moment you feel like you're up in the clouds, all happy and excited. Then, the next moment you can be angry, upset and disappointed. How is absolutely amazing and probably also one of the hardest things in life?

Am I just purely in love with love?  Because it's just less tiring than falling in love with someone.

Then I tell myself I probably just am.

Featuring:

Danielle as Vanessa
Yong as Nathaniel 

Synopsis:

Two ordinary strangers, a café, some coffee and an accidental prank. Fate brings Nathaniel and Vanessa from strangers to something more than friends.

Sometimes the only difference between friends, lovers and strangers are the memories we hold on to.

After two years, will they still let fate decide once again?

Do we always take the chances fate gives us?

Happy Birthday Buddy

Hey Buddy, 

Happy 2nd Birthday. This also means you are 14 human years old now. Oh dear, you're catching up with my age, please slow down. 

I'm very thankful and  blessed to have you joined the family two decembers ago. When we first saw you at the pet farm (damn it, kill me now I also won't go pet farm) but yes you were this gentle puppy that was so tame and adorable and soft. The moment we sat on one of our palms, that was it, love at first sight. We bought you right away. 

I often questioned myself there after if we made the right decision. I was of course still afraid of dogs and afraid of you lol. But I'm sure we made the right decision. ALTHOUGH at times I just want to kill you and chop you into ten pieces and throw you out of the window because you make the house in a mess by pooping and peeing everywhere you little bastard. 

But ok you very cute i forgive you. 

Thank you fluff ball for loving us so unconditionally. For being unconditional, that's you. Humans are conditional, so i'm happy to have you. I can look my ugliest and my worst and you'll still come up to give kisses on my face. I come home with the worst mood but you never, never fail to greet me at the gate. 

"Sometimes, the greatest lessons come from the most unexpected sources"

"If you want lessons in unconditional love, don't look up at roles models, simply look down. Two exemplary role models for unconditional love generally stand at knee level - Kids and Dogs"

How true. 

Of course there will be days i wished we never had you. Because with you around, I can't do things i love, we can't do things freely without putting you in consideration. When we travel, who's there to look out for you. When i'm out the whole day, who's there to play with you? I guess things like these eventually solve by themselves over time because we get used to it.

I really said everything i wanna say so many times. How you're an absolute joy and blessing to our lives and i won't want my first dog to be any other than you. You're irreplaceable and I definitely love you more than anything else in the world.

Grow up healthily and happily. I can't wait to spend ten and twenty more years with you. <3

Here's the faces of our blessing

I hope everyone else loves you as much as we do. Thank you for coming into our lives. To more adventures together alright? Love you to the moon and back cutie.
