"Secondly, don't let anyone ever make you feel like you don't deserve what you want."

I've just finished watching Sixteen Candles and 10 Things I Hate About You (a recommendation there by Kai Ni). They're both oldies and I think that one thing which old movies have in common is that they're actually really simple, plot and character wise, and I like it. I love them from the settings to the way the characters dress. Everything's just so old-school, it's so cooool, I think I wouldn't mind living in that era hahah. Btw, there are cute guys in the shows too hehe. Patrick from "10 Things I Hate..." was so adorbzxzx especially when he was being sweet toward Kat, and that accent... His accent is just to die for *.* Like why do movies constantly give girls false impressions of guys )": All these things which guys do in the movies, they will never happen in reality, or at least not in Singapore. There may be a possibility that it'll happen in the States - another reason why it would be better to live there hahahahah I know I should be thankful for being able to live here and all, but apart from being a safe place, I would very much like to migrate )-:

Anyway, throughout " 10 Things I Hate...", I was wondering where the title made any relevance to the show at all, and was waiting for them to play 'I Want You to Want Me'. Btw I love that song, it's stuck in my head. I actually knew bout it from watching Mobbed, when the guy sang it to the girl (awwww ikr). Only later did I find out that the track was covered in "10 Things I Hate..." Back to what I was saying - I was wondering, and it was only at the end did they show the link of the title. I actually counted and it was exactly 10 'I hate's (': If you don't get it, go watch the show to understand what I'm sayin'. It was so cute hahah and they only played the song at the end too, but I didn't see any link in that at all l o l like the song had no link idk why. It was like just a track to end off the show.... but i still like it (-: Think I'm gonna watch Big Fish next, and Moonrise Kingdom which is a 2012 show strongly recommended by Clara Lee.

Sorry about ending with a rant because I'm feeling so fed up with my mum because she constantly procrastinates and never actually does what she says. I'm trying to not pick up that bad habit, which I think may just run in the family. It's as bad as empty promises. Urghhh makes me so angsty about how I'll always end up being disappointed time and again

“We’re all pretty bizarre. Some of us are just better at hiding it, that’s all.”


you see us as you want to see us… in the simplest terms and the most convenient definitions. you see us as a brain, an athlete, a basket case, a princess, and a criminal.

So the first week of my holidays have passed, and I'm left with two weeks. I actually feel sort of zoned-out and I just want to stay home and watch shows, and prevent myself from spending any unnecessary money by going out (besides shopping ofc). I suddenly felt like watching some oldie movies and yes, I just watched The Breakfast Club. It's a really simple show, but rather intriguing too I'd say. Basically, the show's about how these 5 different stereotyped students change, just from a day's worth of detention. They realised that apart from all their differences, they're actually pretty much the same. I guess in reality, things, or people, are actually like that too.
You can literally count the number of characters casted in the movie. It actually amazes me how the hour and a half long movie solely revolves around the 5 kids, excluding the janitor and the bitchy teacher. The only characters I liked at the start, were Claire and Andrew I think because they seemed the most normal, and John Bender was funny but he acted like such a bitch. But halfway into the show, I liked all of them except Allison hahahah she was just so so weird but at the end you'll see that she's actually really pretty too (-:  I felt so glad for all of them to have become friends. I think I'm someone who likes happy endings in shows, but some people find such endings boring (I'd get why though). But I don't know, happy endings make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside and I'll be like "awwww". And I hate to admit it, but I can be such a sucker for romance sometimes -_- but I think almost everyone is right hahahah

Thinking of watching The Notebook again, because I don't get why everyone thinks it's really nice and people actually cries watching it but I'm just like 'meh'. Maybe I didn't actually watch it properly, so all I know is that it's about forbidden love, if I'm not wrong lol. And I may watch Sixteen Candles too, another 80's movie by John Hughes. And honestly, I don't feel all that excited for Christmas anymore because everything seems to be changing and I really miss my childhood )':
Oh and I definitely need to stop sleeping at 4am every single night.

MST

Hi guise, I've just ended my MSTs, hence begins my 3 week holiday!!! (-: The past week has been, I don't know, a little intense but not so much too? How do I explain this... I feel like I've actually learnt my lesson from my first semester in polytechnic, that every single test, and I mean every single one of 'em, is important. It's not like secondary school times anymore. No one's gonna be slacking away with you. Everyone's gonna be working their asses off for every single test to get their targeted GPA, and no one's gonna settle for a GPA less than 3.6. It actually feels like a dog eat dog world in here; at least I felt like that. Don't get me wrong though, friends here are really really nice and willing to help one another. I guess I actually feel pressured by everyone's motivation to want to do well, and I didn't even feel this way during O's really. So yup, even though it was a little last minute, I studied what I could, and managed to get through the week. Comparing this to my very first MST last semester, I swear I did so much more work for this one. Last MST's, I went for my tests with no idea what the hell I was scribbling on those pieces of paper honestly. I wrote stuff which i made up in my head, and things that made sense to me and only me. So, whatever marks I got didn't affect me much 'cause I had it coming, even though I was initially a little upset. As for this MST's, I actually knew what I was doing (proud of myself) hehe. But the bad thing was, the papers were easy, and for almost all of them, I had the "I know how to do this, but don't really know how" sort of feeling. It's okay if you don't get it, it's just sort of this unsure feeling. So yup, I made mistakes here and there, which are definitely gonna cost me quite a number of marks, which made me upset because if I were to do a little more thinking, and had been more careful, I would have definitely gotten them right but oh well )': Just gonna hope for the best next year! I feel like each year is passing by faster and faster. Time is really waiting for no one. Just hoping that things will get better over the years. Shall add some pictures to make this post less wordy.
Please ignore my awkward position. Just realised this is my first time posting pictures of my new friends hahahah Anyway, gonna make a post on FYI On Stage once I've got the instax scanned in :* And I can't wait to do some Christmas shopping! I predict myself to be splurging this month, but oh well I shall enjoy my holidays while it lasts (-:
