Random Thought Bubbles

Ramblings on of someone still finding the way




Nice pictures? Haha... Cherie took them. Rac's and Steph's birthday and me as the party decorator and party mood setter together with Bryan =)) The christmas tree's been there since last christmas... haha. We like to think it adds to a cheery atmosphere.

So anyway, I've been trying to blog for two days. And have failed miserably as you can tell from the lack of updates. Haha! Anywez, it's mostly because I've been trying to add lots of pictures into one blog and stubbornly telling myself that I can fit everything in one post. Maybe I just can't... but I don't know... I did do that super '4 days of crazy' post the last time and that came out alright... Then again it was mostly pictures from my camera phone which would've saved a whole lot of space... Blah! Now the pictures have loaded up and this blog is super long because of the sheer load of pictures to choose from.

In any case, as dedicated scribe for my bunch of crazy friends =) I shall continue with what was left of our last few days together as a group before people started moving out.

First, Racine's and Steph's birthday (I shall save the juicy picture for another day =P for those who know... MUAHAHA!!!). It was a none BBQ but BBQ party... haha... I found it funny because there was a barbecue pit but there were only sausages to barbecue and it appears that one cannot just buy marshmallows from Carrefour or Tesco but have to find a Cold Storage somewhere and get it there. Van tried but it was not to be... No marshmallows for us and no Chubby Bunny game... blea... oh ya, Chubby Bunny is a game I learnt at camp. It's when you stuff a marshmallow in your mouth and say 'Chubby Bunny'. Repeat till someone can't say 'Chubby Bunny' without choking. (Somehow I think I've typed that before). Bry and I decorated Bryan's place with lots of candles and christmas lights (look above) and a very sad looking banner... (look below) hee hee... ala me cause all he had was a little cardboard and some highlighters so I had to make the best of it. We also had a little lecture notes burning session. Hehe. That felt really good! I think it was the first time in a long while where we didn't have alcohol at a party... wait... we did have Baileys in the end... Haha! Okay, we still had alcohol, but everyone was so tired since it was just the day after the last day of EOS and just generally feeling the effects of getting old, no one really drank. Lina and I fell asleep on the beanie bag thingie together. Haha. I bet we looked like two old ladies having a cat-nap. Enjoy the pics =) there are alot more to go... hehe. Haven't been feeling very funny lately... pictures will have to do for now =P



Screamer and Racine with the quite sad banner

Dress code - Anything that has a cartoon.
No cartoon shirt? Make Mickey ears like Amelia!!


I tell you it was super just being able to sit around and DO NOTHING

Look at Bryan la...

Steph and Van =)

I look bad in this photo but I can't pass up on posting a totem photo =)

Racine and Steph and the quite sad banner again =P

Racine and the tall tall Van Ren

L to R - Michelle, Lina, Racine, Shirley
(That's the beanie thingie that Lina and I fell asleep on)

This is the Marilyn-is-studying-and-touching-her-face-again set =P

Trying to fit everyone in... hee hee... quite good la

Next, LUNA. Suddenly someone decided we should go 'chill' at Luna. We all went in three cars and happily piled out. I was happy till my dress caught in a hook on the side of Bran's car door and I coincidentally also 'slipped' out of the car. That's when my dress ripped a slit on the left side! Good thing it's not one of my more expensive pieces of clothing. I'da cried right there (yes, like a bimbo... Haha... but tell me which girl won't cry for her clothing or shoes?). So my evening started with a rip in my dress. Now that dress has a slit. And with all my cheerleading, dance and IMCC improv skills I tied a knot and the dress actually looks better! =P As always we did a toilet shoot. Hee hee! Quite a bit of the photos didn't come out though... but yuppers it was definitely fun! Ooo ya, dress code this time was dress, which explains why I was wearing a dress in the first place. Good thing I finally did my laundry that day (or maybe bad thing since I did rip the dress =P)

Need to potty?


I like this photo... too bad it's so dark =P




First try - Fail... completely uncoordinated Haha!

Second Attempt - Better... but BLUR!! ARGH!!

Third Attempt - It's always better to smile =))
but the composition looks bad... haha... oh well... fourth try's the charm?
Racine looks sweet here and Lina's got the 'come here' look. HAHAHA!

And finally, RUUMS. Juice had reported that RUUMS (it took over Channel... yes, the feng tau place) was a cool place to be and that it could accommodate 4000 people. (all of us didn't believe that) So, since Zouk has been religiously rejecting the underaged and we didn't want to resort to Poppy again we decided to go back there even though Kun Leng had already said it was playing techno when she got there earlier. Ling Wei had read that it was supposed to be 'Retro'. Haha. I was hoping for a make-shift 'Mambo Jambo' but of course it could never beat Zouk. SOOooOOoo... after fumbling through decisions (we've become quite good at changing plans at the last minute) we got to Ruums the lot of us and went in where the girls got ANOTHER free bottle just for arriving. The place is HUGE. It's got little nooks and crannies that look very good and those hanging bamboo chairs. The only thing missing is a good crowd... haha... but since we're a big bunch it didn't quite matter to us. Ruums needs a better dj though... he wasn't very bad but he wasn't very good either =P It was a weird mix R&B... I guess what was playing that night can be called R&B... haha... Plus, there was a Bryan lookalike who started dancing with us and at first we were all a little confused because we all thought it was Bryan for a while. Can't remember the fella's name but it was funny to see them dancing side by side. eheh!







The last time we all had dinner altogether (well, missing Van cause she was at MMW) was at San Francisco Steakhouse. We'd already gone for beggar chicken at Banting that afternoon and I was definitely still a little stuffed from all the pork fat I'd ingested since no one else wanted it, then someone suggested San Fran and I was thinking... 'I can't eat yet... haha...' so I had apple pie in the end when everyone else (besides Rac who was having a dessert like me) was eating a whole lot of meat... ergh... I had enough meat for one day after the whole beggar chicken thing... Haha. Stuffed fish, stuffed chicken, stuffed duck, glutinous rice, pork, pork innards, veggie... I just didn't want to move after it all =P Here's a photo we took after finishing... the guys couldn't be bothered to take a photograph.


Since EOS 5 is over... we've been up to no good again =) unfortunately, we've been outta practice for so long, the group is having a few problems starting up again. Thankfully we've still got a little of the old pizzaz and get togethers just after EOS have been good warming-up exercises in anticipation for better partying days to come. Everyone keeps complaining about getting old and feeling sleepy and tired all the time. Just the other day (Amelia, Michelle, Lina and I went to get our hair cut... yes, again) we were all saying how we should sit around in old woman rocking chairs and knit winter clothes instead of buy them and probably fall asleep in the process of doing said activity. Haha! In any case, here are a few pictures of the past few days. There's a particular incriminating picture of a certain someone in Steph's camera from Racine's and Steph's birthday party at Bryan's last friday but that's for another blog entry altogether... because I don't have it yet. Hehe...

First, the Poppy excursion. The night started out early with everyone leaving pretty much on time. However, when we got to Zouk luck has it that the underaged would not be allowed in, no matter what they're wearing, or saying... haha... so we had to change venue to Nouvo... which was dead as a dehydrated frog that drowned in vodka. SoOoOooo we were left with yet again Poppy, and since it too was quite empty the girls still got in free and we even got a free bottle... hehehe... I look quite wasted in alot of the photos even though I hardly drank, probably because I was already quite tired =P The night got progressively better with 3 guys dying and the rest of us taking photos and ridiculing them, which is always fun =P It wasn't the best clubbing experience but we're definitely picking up...

Progressively happy

Haifon died

Haifon died... again


Brandon and Bryan Cute Cute Cute


Charu, Hema, Gowri, Jebb


Uncoordinated Mengada

Look at RUBEN

As always a picture with Bry my drinking buddy =)

Next, we got Racine a Shu Uemura make-up plus photo thingy at Midvalley as her birthday present. I'd already promised to go with her the day before (which was why I suggested it in the first place) so... we were there buying make-up and taking pictures together... hee hee! No matter who the girl is, she'll always like having photos taken of her... It's amazing how a little photoshoping will do to a picture. I spent the better half of the day walking around Midvalley with a mohawk... which was weird and great at the same time because I just love shocking people =P I don't have a picture of Racine's but below are mine... hehe... She had a few taken with a pvc trenchcoat that made her look like a flasher... but the picture she picked looked very sweet =) I haven't been able to put the mohawk up again since then but I haven't got hairspray either. Clay just doesn't do the job anymore. These photographer people seem to just love beads and fur... I had a green thing on me that looked like moss. You can just see a tiny bit of it peeking out from the corner beside my ugly stubby thumb. Yes, I have a stubby thumb. The right side (the one I sucked when I was little) is short and fat. Both thumbs don't look like they belong to the same person =P


RACINE =)

Racine and a Mohawk

All the girls there that day... heheh





I just love the mohawk look... hee hee... anywez, more updates to come - Racine's and Stephanie's birthday thing at Bry's, Luna and Ruums this Thursday!!

Litany of Fear
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
