Hot & Cold

I love ice-skating. I love the beach. I love him.

Have you ever experience the chill of a winter and the warmth of summer in one day?
Well.. I HAVE! :D
I went to the ice-skating rink and the beach on the exact same day.
It was COLD COLD COLD! and HOT HOT HOT!

Ice world at Kallang was brilliant.
Considering for the fact that it's not as crowded as Jurong's Fuji Palace.
I didn't have to squeeze in between people and duck under people's arms while I was skating. So yes, it's good!
It's not really major shivering cold either,
but still... honey insist I wore his black hoodie that he brought especially for me or I'd catch a cold.
How could I not be a good little girl and listen to sweet caring honey? (:






2 hours of ice-skating can work up an appetite, so we went to get something to bite.
While we were at the eatery, we saw one of the ice-skating instructors,
who wore his skates down to the eatery!
Not to mention, he attracted quite a number of stares, including ours.
WHO WEARS THEIR ICE-SKATES TO AN EATERY?!?!? An ice-skating instructor. (Duh!)

After the eating and the window shopping, it was still only 5.
So I had a cranky idea to go to the beach right at that moment.
Honey didn't disagree, instead he gave me a wide grin and a "LET'S GO!" thumbs-up.
Gosh... I so gotta love him!
So so so! OFF TO THE BEACH AT PASIR RIS!!
Only to reach white sands and realise that we had no folly idea how to get to the beach :X
No worries though, one phone call to Genevieve and we were back on our journey to the beach!
(GIRLFRIEND, I love you! Thanks for being my saviour that day! You rock the world!)






Honey knew that it was pretty late and we shouldn't go to the beach.
Add the fact that a storm was coming. The sky was filled with dark clouds.
Yet he made no effort to stop me,
because he knew I've been wanting to go to the beach for ages.
Thanks honey, you're always the best.
Fortunately, it didn't rain till we were at the bus stop waiting to get back to white sands.
So yes, we escaped being caught in the rain. Phew.. *wipes sweat*


Coffee Club @ White Sands for a quick dinner.
Carbonara for him, Zucchini and chicken baked rice for me.
Then it was time to head home...

My apologies, this is a lousy and cranky entry.
I can't help it since I was suppose to be sleeping in bed 54 minutes ago.
My eyes are drooping shut already...
But I'm making an effort to finish up this entry before sleeping.
So give me a little credit! (:
Now, its bedtime for me... *Yawns*
Why are there revision lectures during the holiday? Screw school...

Alright, you're asking what is this about.
Amanda tagged me on this little thingy that she did.
& I found it interesting.
Done with the simple explanation part.

Now, into more elaborate explanation.

1. I used to have my own room.
But ever since my house got sold away and,
I moved in with my grandparents temporarily,
I had to share a room with my aunt.
Although my sister has moved to Australia,
the room (honestly)isnt big enough for 2 people.
My old room was much bigger than this current one,
that I'm sharing with my aunt.
So ignore my complaints if you're unhappy with this little grumpy kid right now. This is my life.

2. I'm no freaking nerd.
So that explains my lack of good grades constantly. Excuse moi~

3. I wish I had a swimming pool.
But according to people like honey,
having a swimming pool makes you not wanna swim anymore.
So I'll just skip out on the owning a swimming pool part,
since I don't wanna lose my fanatic craze,
whenever I see a swimming pool in someone's backyard! :D

4. No big room, where to put my computer? -.-

5. ZACHARY JOHN!!! You're responsible for making me not look forward to school!!! Laughs. (I'm just joking! It's more of the opposite.)

6. I'm self-conscious. I really am. Do you believe me?

7. I've got mortal enemies.
Oh no!! Who's willing to be my warrior and protect me from these evil people??
You'll get to choose between Ronald Weasley's broken wand, a blunt spear, a chipped sabre, a toy sword, a breadknife and a plastic dagger as your weapon.
Oh! What an honour to protect me! LAUGHS!!

I'm getting bored. Ciao.

Do you have the guts?

Take my Quiz!

If thou is brave,
if thou is mighty,
if thou is courageous.......

THEN TAKE MY QUIZ! Show me how well you know me!

HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW ME, FRIEND?

P.S. Make me proud of you! PLEASE don't fail!!

Crashed and Burned

I'm feeling weak. Mentally.



Its 2.54AM. I'm supposed to be in bed.
Its either the 5hours of nap that I took or my thoughts that is keeping me awake.
Or perhaps, both of them are the reasons why.
Give me a reason to smile. Give me a reason to speak.
Give me a reason to open myself to the rest of the world.
Someone please tell me what's wrong with me?
I need my cure. I want to smile. I want to laugh. I want to be me again.
Where am I? Lost..in the middle of nowhere.

For once... I should make an effort to stand up on my own two feet.
To no longer depend on others. To depend on myself. To be independent.
If I'm lost, there isn't a point in standing at the same spot,
screaming "SOMEONE, PLEASE HELP ME!"
The effort made is not enough. Its not sufficient.
Take the extra effort to walk yourself out of the maze.
You'll feel much better than just receiving help,
because you know you're the one helping yourself. Not some other person.
Stop sulking. Stop weeping.
Get your lazy bum off the ground. Pick yourself up.
Go & search for yourself. Go & find who you really are, again.
Be yourself. Be who you are.

There was once when I threw all my philosophies away.
I became a stranger. I became someone that even I didn't know.
I felt the world collapse upon me. I felt the sun dying.
Lucky me, found a way out. I survived through the ordeals.
I'm now living a brand-new life.
I once swore that I'll live my life to the fullest now.
I had once allowed life to slip through my fingers, & I regretted doing that.
Its something that'll never happen again.
I'm going to pick myself up. I'm going to be me again.
That will all start once I wake up later in the morning.
For now, I'll turn this computer off, go to bed and get some sleep.

Its a brand-new day tomorrow.
Its a fresh start. Its going to be my day.

Appear right beside me, right now.

This is something I'm so not used to.

Having your secondary 3 English teacher commenting on your facebook status is weird.
Furthermore, it's extremely weird when your facebook status is:

"Sophie Leow misses her boyfriend. & has MATHEMATICS as her companion this weekend. Yucks!"

And your teacher comments are:

"It's ok. Separation is good for the soul."

RIGHTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT. This is so not awkward.
I must be joking.

Honey is off to Ipoh visiting his relatives during this long weekend.
So I'm left at home to sulk my time away.
I miss him.
Ah hell! I'm turning into Genevieve. (No offence girlfriend!)
I'm blogging my longing for his return. Nothing wrong with that, I guess.
But I'll stop. Blogging now might be hopeless since he might not even read it.
I'll just whine and pout loads tomorrow when he gets back.
I sound like a devil, with 2 red horns on my head, a red spike-tail and a red pitch fork in hand.
Crackling in my evil laughter: kekekekekekeke~
That's so me! I'm loving the image.


I figure I'd get started on posting up the pictures I took with Amanda,
this thursday when we met up and had subway for lunch.
My girlfriend is starting to really look womanly. Beauty queen in progress! :D







LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE OF THE PICTURES TAKEN USING MY CANON CAMERA AND MY SE PHONE! Good gracious.

Canon Camera:


SE Phone:


(THERE YOU GO AMANDA!! PHOTOS ARE FINALLY UP!! DONT SMACK MY BUTT!!)


While waiting for the pictures to get uploaded, I popped into honey's facebook account for a look-around.
Boy oh boy.. Many many pictures of him, taken by his schoolmates.
And he used to shy away from cameras. Laughs.
Looks like my (often) pulling out my camera to snap pictures of him,
has gotten him being used to photograph-ed.
My photo gallery in my camera is mostly pictures of him.
I remember him blocking the lenses of my camera whenever I tried to take pictures of him in the past.
I'd whine and plea, grunt and grumble,
till he finally gives in and lets me snap pictures of me.
I would only keep my camera with a victorious smile spread wide across my face,
after taking many many shots of him. Yes, I'm evil.
Now he simply continues working with whatever he was working on when I whip my camera out.
He learns that by posing for a few pictures, it would get me to keep my camera sooner.
So yes, it benefits him and largely, me!
Because I get to take many many pictures of him.

I'm happy, he's happy. The world looks so happy!

Gosh.. I wish he'd be back sooner.
I'm depending on the photos I took of him to get past this weekend.
And you won't believe what an agony it is.
I want to see the living him. Not photographs.
Time is the real devil.



Honey.. I miss you..

CafeBiz @ Traders Hotel

You're wetting the computer desk already.
































Great food. Brilliant venue.
