Time to say goodbye to this journal and move on.
For the past year and a half that I've had spasticated, I've enjoyed every single moment of it; this journal has seen me through my ups and downs, seen me cry, heard me whine and groan, listened to me talk, and the likes.
So now it's goodbye to this journal, and hello to another one.
Am not gonna post the link here, but rest assured you'll be notified about the change :)

$0.02 - exploitation of women still continues

2003-12-14T01:27:03Z

I went down to White Sands yesterday(no, I didn't play ddr *winks*) and decided to purchase a copy of this month's Female just to have a look at the contents inside.
Perhaps it was the cover emblazoned with the words, "I had 21 men in one night!" that caught my eye. Nono it's not what you think, but rather, an article on speed dating in Singapore.
Have yet to get to that article, but before sleeping last night, I read an article on the sex scene in Singapore; what exactly goes on behind those doors at the foot reflexology centres and hotel health-care centres?
Blow jobs and (oral) sex are actually offered at an extra charge behind those doors; while it is risky business in that the police can come barging in anytime, it remains profitable in the sense that it keeps those men coming in and as such, more money.
Then of course, there are the KTV lounges - the hot favourite. A Chinese national, working at one of them, was interviewed and she said, "I'm only in it for the money." She said that she did not find any enjoyment in her job at all.
Perhaps, some women are so hard-pressed for money to the point that out of desperation, they turn to such jobs. It's a quick fix to getting money, one might say, albeit dishonest. Of course, encountering sleazy men wanting nothing less than sex is the norm.
I couldn't help but feel that those women are exploited just to satisfy their male customers' libidos. And as we now know, a foot reflexology isn't exactly all massage and nothing else; the masseuses actually caress their male customers.
However, no matter how much we might say that such a woman is in it just for money, or that we can also say that she's cheapening herself, ultimately, it's her own choice to decide how to lead her own life.
And as long as all that sleaze remains a profitable business, we won't see an end to it all very soon.

Choir was pretty fun today. Poor Charlotte got saboed by us in the end :P We locked her out of the Beethoven Room lol and then hid her belongings. Sorry hun! ;P
Am probably gonna play some DDR when I head on down to White Sands to buy dinner later...goodness, it's been a long time since I last went to the arcade! But of course, should the arcade be crowded no way am I gonna dance muahaha.
Thanks everyone, for your well wishes and support :) (I've locked up that entry - I don't exactly wanna make a huge issue out of it) For those who know about it, I trust that you keep it to yourselves too, thanks.
This is just a senseless post, so bye ...off to the piano :)

The human mind is an immensely complex one, filled with an overwhelming myriad of emotions, whether incomprehensible or not.
Do you think I'm an easy person to read? The perpetual smile on her face, the laughter that erupts one too often at times, the happy-go-lucky personality, the craze and all that nonsense...what they perceive Azlyn to be.
But there's more than meets the eye.
Only so few have managed to delve deep into the core of my shell. Those who have done so would, perhaps, have uncovered a rather vulnerable and timid person, unknown to many.
And deep inside her heart holds a place for that someone who's able to make her happy. But are her feelings reciprocal? That remains in doubt.
She wants that someone to know how she feels. She wants to delve deep into his mind, and find out how he feels too. Then again, at the end of the day, it's always the fear of rejection that keeps holding her back. Maybe to a certain extent, she's not willing to swallow her pride and take the initiative.
Who? That's for me to know and for you to guess.

My sister and I went shopping for more Harry Potter merchandise yesterday :D
What we bought:
- Professor Dumbledore mini figurine ($4.00)
- Hermione doll with scented bracelet ($8.00)
- Harry doll with scented bracelet ($9.80 - this was purchased at Toys 'R' Us)
- Quidditch Stadium playset ($12.00)
- Diagon Alley Chapter Game ($7.80)
- Dobby Game Dice ($2.95)
- Aragog Game Dice ($2.95)
We made off with really good buys since most stores are clearing the stock and it's not gonna be easy to find them in the future. Over time they'll become collectibles too - my sister learnt the hard way what happens when you want to look for movie merchandise a long time after it's finished its run at the cinemas lol. *coughSHREKcough*
We spent over 1 hour (from 11.30 pm to 12+ am lol) tearing open those boxes, untying those twines and displaying those stuff at the cabinet. The end result? A tastefully-arranged display and a cut thumb suffered by yours truly, after the penknife accidentally slit it =/
We've taken pictures of the display and when we have time we'll upload them. And you haven't seen my collection of HP merchandise prior to that have you? ;)
PS: Would you believe it? We also captured television stills of Mark Chay receiving the silver medal at the prize-giving ceremony! :O:O

they ain't got no taste =/

2003-12-06T08:33:58Z

Checked out the proposed new choir gown today. All I can say is, the colour combination is butt-ugly. No offence here. But honestly, what were those 7-odd people who stayed behind to decide on the colour combi thinking??? Honestly, do you think white will go well with this blue-purple shade that you now see?
Picture this: You've got a long, flowing choir gown, complete with 3/4 chiffon sleeves. The main colour of the gown is this colour BUT the drawback's that the 3/4 chiffon sleeves are WHITE, paired with that shade of blue which you saw earlier.
Seriously, all I can think of is, don't that particular(read: NOT everyone) group of juniors have better taste? WH and I, as well as a couple of the other sec 4s(well, you can consider us sec 4s in a way now lol), were thoroughly voicing out our disapproval regarding the choice of colours involved. The colour combi of that gown's totally cringe-inducing, may I inform you.
And *she* was being pretty bossy ie. fighting her way through and wanting to stick to that colour combi(after all, she was among the others who chose the colours). Oh come on, she doesn't hold a position on the choir comm, unless you unofficially count in CIP co-ordinator(that's my post too :P) and yet she was being so outright and demanding just now? Gee.
Those juniors are just gonna regret their decision 1 or 2 years down the road. They could do with a crash course on fashion sense seriously. No offence there, really. This is the personal(okay, perhaps somewhat biased too) opinion of a disgruntled soon-to-be sec 4 choir member.
PS: Check out http://www.enemyster.com - coming your way soon! ;P
PPS: May I have your -ahem- attention please :) Do head on down to Ghim Moh Market this coming Sunday to support my friend Germaine and her team battle it out against another group of aunties in a bid to sell as many tau kuah as possible. Channel 8 will be filming this event too :D Please, do your bit and support her! Details can be found at her blog - click click.
You may have seen the trailer featuring them on Channel 8 :)

And another thing...SEA Games swimming finals tonight! It's always exciting, watching those swimmers - they literally make you hang on to the edge of your seat, cheering our fellow Singaporean competitors on from the comfort of our television screen.
There's another hottie I'm looking out for too: Filippino male swimmer Juan Carlos Piccio. I went crazy over him that time in 2001 ;) He's just got that cute nerdy look in a way lol. I know, I have weird taste ;)

pre-tuition blues

2003-12-03T07:36:39Z

Azlyn is currently feeling the pre-tuition blues -_-""
Yeah I am soooo looking forward to tuition...NOT! I suppose it's gotta do with the fact that I haven't attended tuition for 2 weeks already because last week's session happened to fall on the 2nd day of Hari Raya so I was excused from going ;)
Have yet to complete the homework Mr Khor gave us 2 weeks ago, which was actually due last week. Screw it. I can't answer like practically half of the entire paper. I'm such a loser gee.
What scares me is the fact that time is flying by, way too fast - it's almost surreal don't you think? 1 month into the holidays, and I haven't achieved nor done anything constructive. What have I been doing? In short, just slacking away.
I guess I don't really adhere to whatever goals I set for myself owing to my lack of self-discipline. I was *supposed* to start revising this year's syllabus actually; BIG JOKE!!!
So the seconds are ticking away, and more time's being wasted =/

New layout (opens in a new window)
It's definitely a change from my usual style of layouts; this time, it's in black and white (my first time dabbling in only those 2 colours) and for another, it's somewhat abstract.
I pretty much like it though :)
Comments please :D

My appetite has been grossly savage these days; I'm really worried I'll wake up one fine day and find out that I've gained ALOT of weight overnight :X
Partly because my period's late by 4 days?
Even then I've been eating helluva lot ever since the fasting month ended. Chocolates(we've got lots of them at home), brownies(2 whole tubs - and I've been devouring those slices everyday), kuih-muih e.g. cornflakes cookies, and most recently, tomyam-flavoured prawn crackers with my brother...how??
Amidst it all, I've been adhering to a new habit however: Drink as many cups of (plain) water as possible per day to keep skin hydrated I used to drink only around 4 cups of water per day, but now I'm at least meeting the minimum criteria of 6 per day :D

Beaver returned to NZ today. Went to see her off, along with nadia, zhu han, prawnie, her other friends and family members.
Hugs were exchanged, as well as tears. I started crying when I hugged her, but in a way I did manage to control myself better this time, as compared to that time in April when she migrated. It's gonna be 2 years at the very least before she returns. Sure, it does seem like a very long time away. The 7 months she was away felt like an eternity before we got to meet up again.
But time will pass, whether at a slow or fast pace.
And I hope to keep in touch with her till then.

kinky!

Yours truly went on a Harry Potter shopping spree just now and bought both HP vcds and a Hagrid figurine. Add in dinner at Delifrance. Considerably around $43 poorer now :(
Speaking of Spongebob Squarepants literally...
Kak Marhamah told me that her toddler children totally love Spongebob Squarepants(naturally, given their age) >> they actually attempted to draw his face on a sponge!! How cute right? :D:D
I'm going off soon to watch Harry Potter & The Philosopher's Stone :]

Mum's nagging at me cos I didn't bring in my cup to the kitchen after drinking -_-""
Hari Raya celebrations have been pretty good so far, although I'm eating much more than I'm supposed to. Yeah I can't seem to enforce self-control upon myself :( I'll *try* do so when we go visiting later.
Green packet earnings ($$$) have been pretty decent so far :) BUT I'll only get 2/3 of the total amount, despite my attempts to ask my father to up the amount ^^
Danial's leaving on a 19-day trip to Europe tomorrow!!! Lucky boy!!! *envious* I told him to get me postcards from Amsterdam and Austria. He said that I don't have to pay him. But I insist on repaying him the necessary amount :P
Btw: Thanks Kevin, Danial, Sharifah, Nadiah, Val and Chrissie for those Hari Raya smses! :) Plus the rest for your Hari Raya wishes!

Let the celebrations begin after sunset! :)

2003-11-24T11:21:38Z

Last day of bulan Ramadhan! After that, it's PARTY TIME and HARI RAYA!!! I'm excited, definitely. And seriously, I'm glad I won't have to wake up at 4.30 am in the morning to have my meal... till the next year ;)
If I were to do an evaluation of the past month of fasting (amidst having to miss 8 or 9 days), I must say that the fasting month is a test of one's sheer determination and willpower, both physically and mentally. Physically speaking, you feel hungry and dehydrated and your body feels weak. Mentally speaking, your mind starts having insatiable cravings and it takes a great deal of willpower not to succumb and press on.
So the celebrations shall kick in after sunset! :D I can't wait to hear that Selamat Hari Raya song again lol :P I went to Geylang just now and you could feel the Hari Raya atmosphere setting in; the Malay radio station was playing Hari Raya songs and it really gets you into the mood, you know?
SELAMAT HARI RAYA!!! Maaf zahir dan batin alright? :)
Going out especially to __paradox, _farah, andalufire, arista_desiree, aszreh_flirt, baby_kevin, babywestlife64, bloodynemesis, eeezza, flakedsnitch, flexedwings, ili, irksome_kitsch, lady_kevlar, liza_cicak, mariana, minah_moto, power2rockme, shalinarain, shazreh, sir_shearer, skankwifme, spanktrue, tara_starr, th1rte3n, waddy_stuffy, Dee, Ilyana, Razzie and Farhanah!
I hope I didn't miss out anyone :P
Who to jalan raya with:

Fellow 3/5 Malay friends - Oh, and we'll go to Cikgu Ah-Eh Alena's house too! :P:P

Shahira, Ruzanna, Danial and the Malay class of '00 - Go to Cikgu Milah's house!

Choir mates - Izzati, Fatin, Adilah, Sharifah, Am and oh...liza_cicak!!! Come come!! :):)

Lalala. Nothing's gonna keep me down at this festive time of the year! :P:P

Speaking in segments

2003-11-22T22:22:33Z

I shall divide this entry in segments seeing as to how they're not exactly related to each other.
1. Dinner at Sanur Couldn't go for the sec 4 choir farewell yesterday(sorry liza_cicak!) cos of a family dinner.(my maternal/Chinese side!) The food was relatively good :) The satay was delicious, the meat tender, and not concrete-hard until you fear that the stick's gonna really stab your tongue or worse still, your throat, if you continue gnawing at the meat any harder. My mom said that the bill went up to $577!!! I think there were around 17 of us in all.
And A-Da's girlfriend said that the way I ate was "very ladylike". Um, righttt. I beg to differ! *shakes head in protest*
2. What a small world I bumped into 2 online friends on 2 consecutive days without knowing that I'd actually done so! Darren said he saw me at City Hall on Wednesday. I was with Fatin, Jiemin and Char - we were on our way home. I did notice a group of RI boys when we were crossing the road but I had no idea that one of them was him!
And on Thursday, Clarence said he saw me at Orchard MRT. I did notice someone staring at me but as usual, I had no idea that it was him!
I couldn't recognise the both of them =/
3. When will we ever get to see her? Beaver's not sure when she'll ever return to Singapore in the near future :X Nadia, me and her are trying to squeeze in a day when we can go out for a final time before she leaves on Saturday but that'd be hard cos it's Hari Raya time. *sigh* But we'll have to see how.

Yep, that's it for now.

We didn't go to Sentosa after all due to the weather =/ Besides, Val couldn't come. Some other time perhaps!
So me, Mari and Iain went to PS. Played at the arcade and watched Wishing Stairs. I personally thought that the movie was NOT scary at all, save for the sound effects. Not satisfying at all. Was quite buay song when I left the cinema actually haha. I'd say that The Ring or Ju-on's much more worth your money actually.
You know, I think I must be the most boring and stupid person around. Why do I say so?
Some of you may notice that I do tend to speak with a stutter from time to time ie. I stumble over the words I say, for no apparent reason. It's not that I'm nervous or anything. I just don't know what to attribute that irritating and bad habit to. I'd say that it started last year, out of the blue. The fact that I tend to speak too fast might have been the catalyst to it all.
And when I stumble over the words I say, I tend to say the stupidest things at the wrong time, giving others the impression of me being a bimbo.
I can't make witty comebacks at all, I can't speak well, I'm not gifted and eloquent when it comes to speech-wise matters. So when people talk to me I can only reply in a meek manner, reiterating what they say or just saying, "Haha."
I hate myself this way. And the worst part's that no matter how much I try to kick the habit I can't. It all comes flooding back at one point or another.
Yes, I write better than I speak. Speak well? Big joke.
But this can't go on forever. Somebody help me :(

I'm getting really sick of Orchard Road you know? But that seems to be the best place that you can actually go to hang out with your friends.
At least I have the Sentosa trip with Val, Mari and Iain tomorrow to look forward to :D

(Incoherent) Random thoughts running through my head:

I'm really scared I'll end up spoiling the spring in the battery charger one fine day if I continue inserting the batteries in a really hard manner.

Gilderoy Lockhart is an egoistic asshole. Yep, I'm rereading Harry Potter books #1-4 before I get started on Order of the Phoenix. (tsk tsk, I got that book way back in july you know!)

I seem to have regained the weight I lost. Damn :'(

So my family and I attended this outdoor concert at the Esplanade waterfront yesterday - if it actually interests you, it was this oldies band that was performing...the reQuests. Ask your parents; they might just know a thing or two about that band. And...
1. Mdm Kong - my tuition teacher back in primary school.
2.MADAM KHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
(she's the Operations Manager of my school, although she's better known as the one who'll scrutinise you and pull you out if you don't conform to the school rules...but she hardly ever books people!)
I said "Hi" to the latter lol and she waved. I was like going, "Hi Madam Khoo...I'm from your school!" Not too sure whether she recognised me oops.
I'm gonna sleep soon...got a workshop at NY to attend later.

I want to clarify something. I'm NOT going to Italy. Sorry for the misunderstanding - when I said "consent form", I meant acknowledgement slip; ie whether or not I'm allowed to go there. Case closed :)
My mother tunes in to Gold 90 FM 24/7 and that drives me crazy!!! Oh sure, oldies are really nice but when you hear Gold 90 FM all day, playing the same hits most of the time you start thinking, "God, can't she turn off the darn radio?!" And all I hear about is Lobo coming to Singapore, Lobo this, Lobo that. Pfft. K this is just a mindless rant.
Lol, Beverly and I promised each other to keep in touch all the way until she relocates to Singapore at the age of 21. And from there we made a few pacts in the future: That I'll be her bridesmaid at her wedding and vice versa and that she'll be the godmother of my child and vice versa :):) I'm really blessed to have such a great friend like her, and I really hope that the flame of our friendship will continue burning strong.

Heck, I handed up the form to him personally!!! Outside the comp lab. I swear!! Okay fine I didn't write down my name but it's not like I had a pen with me when I handed in the form and besides I gave it to him in a hurry after retrieving it from the comp lab. Bloody ass.

Yep Beverly's back :) Went out with her yesterday and today. Unfortunately her handphone got stolen today :S We happened to be at This Fashion @ Suntec City - I think she put her handphone inside the little compartment of her bag without zipping it and the next thing you know, her handphone was gone. Tried calling her number on my handphone - at first someone answered but he/she must have hung up straight away, and the subsequent times we tried calling again there wasn't any dialing tone. Sigh. I don't want her holiday to turn out this way yaknow? :(
I really want that black toga top from Project Shop Blood Brothers =/=/=/
On a brighter note, we(me, Nadia and Beaver) got identical tops, though the colours are different. Gonna wear that to our Escape trip :)
I don't really feel like blogging much now. Tata.

Napped from 1.30 - 4 just now hehe...so shiok! My head was practically on the table during A Maths lesson; and that was the first lesson of the day!! Permutation and combination is such a bitch grr. I'm still clueless at it despite having learnt that topic earlier in tuition.
I had a weird dream just now in my sleep; somehow the dream involved Claire, Winson, Kevin, Candice, Angie, Nadia and some other schoolmates. In that dream, my friends were celebrating my birthday at Sakae Sushi - somehow there was this branch on the top of a hotel ;O So I was about to settle down at the table where Angie, Nadia and Candice were seated when Claire enveloped me in a mad, crazy hug that got me screaming VERY loudly. Everyone turned around to stare at me and I kept mumbling to myself, "Oh shit, oh shit!!! So pai-seh!!!" while covering my face with my hands. Then somehow my father appeared in the dream and demanded that I go up to the management office upstairs and apologise for my screaming loudly.
And in the dream, I somehow dreamt that Winson introduced himself as an Indonesian. LOL!!!!!
I can't wait for Beaver's arrival tomorrow :):):) I really hope to be able to make full use of this time, treasure it, catch up on lots of stuff and have a girlie bonding session. Nadia says that she might just break down when she sees Beaver. So might I :O

Go out with Beaver all the way till the 29th, when she leaves

Go out with Cheryl, Pamela and Qian

Go out with Mari, Val, Iain and Claire

Go out with Su-e jie

Go out with Germ, Jo and Yink

Get back my yearbook from Nigel and vice versa!!

Thread my eyebrows with Amelia (if her mom allows her to do so)

Watch The Wishing Stairs with Nadia, Angie and the rest next week

Celebrate Angie's belated birthday at Fish & Co with the rest during the 1st week of December

Go out with Shi Yun and Cheryl

Return Christina her yearbook!

Hari Raya visiting with fellow Malay classmates

Hari Raya visiting with Shahira, Ruzanna and Fawaz

To top it all of, I still have to catch up on some revision sigh. Schedule subject to change; depending on father's mood actually - since I'm not allowed to go out as and when I like it. Sigh.

LAST DAY OF EXTENDED STUDIES TOMORROW!!!

I am officially a big-time sucker at practicals. We had our Physics SPA today and I screwed up big time. But that practical's not counted for CA...so I shouldn't be in the least bit concerned right? Wrong :X
When I was trying to adjust the position of the retort stand and in the process, it toppled and fell apart. Parts of the retort stand dropped onto the table with a loud CLANG!!!! That got the attention of several classmates and they started laughing. So did I, to cover up my embarrassment haha =/ Continuously said exasperatedly, "I give up! I can't do practical!!!" Tan-Ying was quite amused too haha. He was grinning ;O Thank god Candice and Wei Ling helped me out in the end. When Candice was helping me adjust the angle of the ruler on the retort stand, we burst out laughing again recalling the way the parts of the retort stand clattered onto the table. I'm so damn worried about how I'll eventually fare for the O'level practicals arghh.
BEVERLY'S COMING BACK TO SINGAPORE ON WEDNESDAY!!!!!!! I received her smses(all the way from New Zealand) when I came out of school but in my excitement I must have accidentally deleted one of the 3 smses she sent me heh. Not much details yet but she's gonna call me later. Can't wait :D The last we talked on the phone was way back in August. I started screaming when I read the message there and then at the traffic light ;)
My 37 Degrees black velvet sling bag broke in my moment of joy and excitement =/ So I was running across the road to the bus-stop to tell Nadia about Beaver's returning to Singapore but in the process, my bag fell from my shoulders onto the middle of the road. Then the strap tore and the zip broke. Basket. $34.90 gone down the ~~drain~~ middle of the road(literally) just like that. And the bag barely lasted 2 weeks! 1 week and 6 days rather. Am trying very hard to hint to my parents to buy me the pink Roxy backpack which I really really want, but not much success. My dad just said, "Buy yourself lah." Very vague answer. I want them to get me that bag dammit!!! If I can get them to reward me that bag wouldn't that be good? This is an emergency no? :)

Boredom runs wild

2003-11-08T07:44:42Z

I am extremely bored. Sian. Nothing to do. You name it. And I refuse to touch my homework although I will eventually have to get down to it when I leave the comp, whether I like it or not =/
Homework consists of 15 reviews of 15 short stories for malay, as well as a compo(sigh. cikgu alena gila!!!), cumulative frequency graphs for e maths, source-based(or was it structured? or both??) questions for history and social studies. KS. But maybe that can help me pass time rather than sitting down here, doing nothing and idling away. And homework is therapeutic, you gotta agree :)
So my only reading material for now are the buku cerpen(book of short stories) and... Harry Potter's OOTP? Yep, I haven't started on the latter despite having been given that book waaay back in July =/ But you know what? I guess I'll reread the entire HP series :D
I saw this pink Roxy backpack yesterday which I really really have to get!!! Yeah I know this sounds pretty egoistical, but I think that bag really really suits me. It's so...me?? Like what some will say :D But I'm shit-ass broke now so I guess I can only buy that back after Hari Raya. Righttt, I can just imagine all of you out there groaning and shaking your heads in exasperation at the thought of me buying another bag! Hyuk hyuk.
I'm hungry. And thirsty. I just saw this pic of KFC and BK. And I'm craving Coke now. Choir was pretty tiring. Could see that Miss Lim was disappointed in us; there's only 20+ people going to Italy next year for the competition? I can't go...much as I'd want to. Oh but I wouldn't wanna go if ******* (some of you may know who) goes too because as far as I'm concerned she's the uber bitch. But then again I don't know. My dad's not willing to come up the money for the trip. It's not like we can't afford it, he just doesn't want to spend money on such stuff. Haish.
And if we don't go on the trip to Italy, we'll just rot away and do nothing. No concert whatsoever. The worst thing's that we would only be officially released from choir in July?? Which is a long way to go and a short while before the prelims. How?? I don't want my last year at TK to be so horrible you know? But life at TK's pretty f***ed up already as it is. Haix.
