My Sunday

Sunday was a wonderful day. I'm not trying to be cliched but it was. It started of at 9am in the morning when I headed down to the CC to meet with the AFT members and Ganesh and Nat from Ngee Ann Poly. We then went down to the open space opposite Sun Plaza to decorate it for the Christmas Party. Everything went smoothly. Kids came to make kites and I actually had fun teaching them how to make it. I was no expert and a kid and I tried to make it fly....it did lift off the ground for 30 seconds and then it came crashing back down : ) I didn't say I knew how to make it fly ; )

Then the colouring competition started. We went from having 0 kids participating to 13 kids. After that, we set up for Open Mic Night which saw 7 new acts and 3 of our AFT members performing. Sameer and Henry emceed and I must say they make damn good emcees as a team. They should really carry on doing what they do because they're bloody good at it!

So the moment Open Mic Night ended, I rushed back home to change for Sethu and Bhava's birthday party. The theme was Oscars. Met up with the rest and we headed off to Orchid Country Club. Here are some photos from the night:

A mixture of my old and new friends : )

Awesome Christmas Eve Out

What more can a girl ask then a pleasant outing on the eve of Christmas, a festive for which she has no reason to celebrate due to the fact that she's not christian. I however love Christmas because of the presents and decorations. Yes. My reasons are rather shallow.

Anywho, got up in the morning to head out with my mum to collect my brother's present. It is a Dark Knight Original one of ten a kind poster that I got framed for him as well. Had to collect Naathan's Iron Man poster as well. Then from Esplanade, headed off to Orchard for lunch with the female cousins, Mahes, Shanty and Selvi. Ate at Bali Thai which had surprisingly good food. We then did our gift exchange and I got a gift from Shanty; a necklace with a pendant that's a boot : ) Love it. When I'm less lazy, I'll take a picture of it and put it up here.

Then from there went back home to grab some stuff and then headed off to the CC to meet up with the rest. We printed Christmas song lyrics and grabbed our instruments before heading off to Vivocity. Once there, we ate and sang and enjoyed the fireworks. It was a feel good evening that was free of any expectations. We could all just be ourselves and I honestly did not care what anyone else thought was right or fun because I genuinely enjoyed myself in the good old fashioned sense.

So while we crooned to the tunes, the younger men were playing cards right next to us....loners. Haha but it was fun nonetheless and when the fireworks lit the sky, I just sat back and grinned to myself. Things couldn't have been put together better than that. I handed out my gifts to everyone and passed Serena and Naathan theirs. Serena's gift to me was awesome. Really woman it is : ) A samurai styled letter opener? Come on. I love it!

And then things went to hell from there...haha. Well not to hell. It was just the public transport. It was like every god damn singaporean was at Vivo and was trying to leave at the exact same time. So everything was jam packed and took twice as long to do.  Either way we got back home parted ways. And when I came home my brother gave me his present to me and it was this adorable voodoo looking earpieces. Hilariously thoughtful : )

So that was my christmas eve and this weekend just like every other week's weekend is packed with activites so this writer is going to sign off in hopes that she might get some rest in order to face the next day with less eye bags : ) (Than she already has that is.)

NIGHT! AND MERRY CHRISTMAS READERS : )

Why Women Are Single

Here are my top 10 carefully worded reasons why single women are....well.....single.

She's single because...

1) HER FATHER WAS ABUSIVE and hence she is turned off to most men. Generally these females become strippers as intelligently proven by the famous Chris Rock in this video here. He's rich. He can't be wrong.:


2) She is single because she is FOCUSED ON HER CAREER NOW. Bullshit! Oh please. If she's focused on her career then she should give up ties with her mum, her dad and anyone else she has a relationship with. Seriously? Focusing on your career? Gentlemen. Know this. That line is just an excuse females use for they fear getting into a relationship hence they hide behind their careers as cover.

3) She is single because of HER PARENTS. No explanation required. Especially if you are an Indian girl.

4) She is single because NO ONE HAS ASKED HER OUT BEFORE. That can be a real turn off for a chick. If no one has ever asked her out before then she's going to feel inadequate and unsure if she's attractive enough. Here's 2 possiblities as to why she has never been asked out before: a) She's too intimidating. b) The guys around her are generally cowards or gay. Because every female is attractive in some way and deserves to be asked out for that reason.

5) She is single because SHE IS CONFUSED ABOUT HER SEXUAL PREFERENCES. It's true.

6) She is single because ONLY WEIRD GUYS ASK HER OUT.

7) She is single because SHE'S A HOPELESS ROMANTIC and nothing would do short of a knight with a devastating smile in shining armour who will gallop towards her in a black Arabian horse and would love her as she would him till the end of eternity. A castle would help too.

8) She is single because SHE'S A GOLD DIGGER and that turns off most men. Shocking. You would think the male species would be okay with that as long as she's hot and isn't turned off to sex. I'm just saying.

9) She is single because SHE'S A COUNTRY SINGER and they are generally picky with their men because they fall into the No. 7 category.

10) She is single because SHE IS A NUN.

Get The Spark Back

It's odd how I want to grin now. A smile that would stretch from ear to ear. I don't care what may happen after this or what others may say. I don't care about the days of sorrow that may come after this. I don't care about anyone who may try to put me down. I don't care about the hurt I may face.

Because I feel passion again. Passion for everything in life. I want to do everything and anything. I want to try something new and make sure I excel at it all. It makes everything seem brand new and every turn a possibility of adventure. I'm tired of letting life steer me in a direction that it deems fit. Control lets you decide your own path and the stories that you can tell.

I feel passion for the things that will come to be important to me in the future.

I feel passion for Peter Pan. It's going to be a fantastic production. Nothing can change that fact. Everyone has that spark in them and we're going to pool it together because we've got less than 3 months and it's time to gear up and hit this production full on : )

I feel passion about writing. It's my thing! Conveying my ideas and dreams into words for others to read. That's my thing! I'm not going to let it slip through my hands once again. I'm going to write like never before and make sure that everyone reads my thoughts because they do matter.

I feel passion about so many other things that there's too many to list : ) I intend to try it all, do it all and live it all. I'm only 21 and I've got my whole life ahead of me. If I don't live it, who's going to?

I know it seems like a pep post and I suppose it is but it's a start from what once was : )

So about my life! Recently it has been rather hectic. There have been so many 21st Birthday parties. There were 4 alone over this past one weekend. And through all these hectic weekends and weekdays, I've come to realise alot of things and learned to tolerate alot of people.

Bitching about people ain't going to help no one. So tolerance is key. There are some people who will annoy you through stupidty disguised as intelligence. You can't really get angry with them can you? At least I can't. Yes, I have a rule. Only get angry with people who are genuinely mean. So the ones who annoy you in the manner of stupidity should just be tolerated. And I'm learning how to do so.

And then, there are those you meet who shock you with their change in character. You think you know them and they do something to make you think otherwise. Now, I believe myself to be the rather stubborn sort when it comes to protecting others. If you do something wrong to those I believe I care for then I would choose something drastic to show my disapproval. It isn't right to some but it is what it is.

So I have met the sorts of people I've mentioned above and I've learnt how I tend to react to them. I don't regret how I behaved but I want to refine the manners in which I would react to future similar situations.

I know this is a rather absurd post, heading in directions that seem messy and I promise to do better tomorrow. Yes the daily dose of crazy is back.

I think I'll discuss reasons as to why females are single tomorrow...seems like a rather entertaining post.
