I'm thinking of starting a new blog because for some unknown reason livejournal takes million years to load on my computer (or my network connection)! |

Don't believe everything happiness says
Nothing feels better than hiding these days
We bury our fears in the drinks, in these tears
For the days we believed we could fly
Call up your brothers and sisters and friends
We'll go back to the place where the night never ends
We'll remember the fires, the burning car tires
Boy how in the hell did we get here?
So why don't you meet me, down behind our old school
We'll waste away the weekend, with perfect regard
For how Cavalier we used to be that beautiful insanity
The apathy's surrounding me
Don't close your eyes or we'll fade away
Over and over and over again
We sat down for a minute, grew up into men
Now we're putting out fires and changing car tires
Man how in the hell did we get here?
And we'll never get back what we gave away,
When we still have that fire in out eyes
Don't believe everything happiness says
Nothings as real as our old reckless ways
When we drink by the fires
The burning car tires
Bad girls and good liars
The dreams we'd conspire
The days we went crazy
The nights wild and hazy
Man how in the hell did we get here?

This is what being ambitious is like.
The guitar, which belongs to my brother, is like so much bigger than her.
But, hell, she's looking cute and I miss her presence sometimes.
Maybe she'll become a rockstar one day.
Who knows? :9 |

| | Look after you - The Fray | ] |
I had been looking forward to this day since a few weeks ago, because today I got to meet my boyfriend again after not seeing him for 5 weeks. He looks like Crayon Sinchan now with his army haircut, and he managed to entertain Tasya and Je with his new look.
Go, be entertained.
He forbids me to put up his photo on my blog, but I need to put at least one of it and it's one of those that is blur, so boyfriend, please kindly understand, because if I pixelated your whole face, you seriously will look like a criminal, or an illegal gigolo for that matter. And I love you too much to let the world think of you in that light.
We met up at Bugis, and had a good talk over lunch at this tiny cafe called Ma Maison. I highly recommend the cafe. The ambience was awesome, the waiters and waitresses were very friendly, and most importantly, the food was good and totally affordable. I had Curry Chicken Set for $12.90 which came with Mini Salad, Mushroom Soup, and Iced Tea.
We, then, proceeded to walk around Bugis Junction to get him back to civilization because he's not been to town for around a month. He told me stories about army life. How his bunkmates call him Mr. Muscleman because he's one of the three guys in there who's fitter than the rest, or how he didn't get the chance to throw grenade just because he got a problem with his knee. And guess what the problem is? He has an extra bone on his knee which makes him unable to kneel or crawl. But I like his extra bone, I think it's cute. It just makes him so different from the rest of the world.
Basically today was just spent with a lot of walkings and updating each other's lives. I enjoy sitting around esplanade looking out the window where it's raining outside, and having someone who understands me upside down inside out to talk/complain/bitch/wonder about everything under the stars. And nothing is better than a hug after weeks of not seeing each other. He called it the electrifying hug.
D (Dillon): You know from time to time, I always thought about how it feels like if we ever broke up..
A (Alga): Hm.. Then what came into your mind when you thought of breaking up with me?
D: Nothing.
A: Nothing?
D: Nothing.. because I just can't imagine breaking up with you.
A: Oh.. Why?
D: Hm.. Maybe I'm just scared I won't feel like what I feel with you when I start a new relationship. If ever.
I guess it's true when people say that distance makes the hearts grow fonder.

Today is one of the days when I feel genuinely thankful for being a Catholic.
The homily today was presented by Fr. Richard Ambrose, which in my opinion, the best preacher I've ever come across in my life. He speaks well, he always manages to get the messages across, he knows how to get our attention, and he always ends his homily with "the choice is yours."
One thing I love about my religion is that, it never uses any force.
It always lets me choose and learn from whatever choices I make, which is really one of the coolest things.
Today's sermon really catches my attention,
"There is always good in everyone. So, why are we so quick to judge?"
Right then, a lot of things came through my head, and he was so right.
He made an example from this lovely book which I believe everyone knows, Anne Frank: The Diary Of A Young Girl.
On the day when Anne Frank's parents were murdered by the German soldiers, Anne Frank quotes in her book,
"I still believe that there's good in those German soldiers who killed my parents."
(or somewhere along that line..)
How could someone so young be so noble?
So, if you ever asked me if I love being a Catholic, my answer would be, I sure as heaven do.
My religion teaches me to love my enemies, and see the good in them.
How cool is that!
If all the religion in the world teaches their people to love their enemies, the world would have been so much of a better place.
Hmm, maybe one day.. |

| Hi, I am Alga and I am careless.. |
[Jul. 13th, 2008|11:39 pm] |
If there is one thing in the world that I am an expert at, it's being careless. Extremely careless, while I'm at it.
It's like, if they made Being Careless a subject in high school, I would've gotten a Distinction.
Today, I came home thinking that I would clean up my room and my bathroom, fold up clothes, tidy up my stuff and get rid of the ridiculous amount of dust that I've gathered for the past two weeks or so.
The first thing I would do every single time I came home is to enter my bedroom.
And so I did today..
..just to found out that the bedroom door is locked. LOCKED FROM THE INSIDE!
The first thought that came to my pea-sized brain is Who The Hell Locked The Damn Door??
Oh wait, it's me. ME!
It all started when I decided to shave my armpit hair in the afternoon before going out to meet Tante. I locked my door because I didn't want Debbie to come into a room to someone shaving her armpit hair. I don't think it's fair to her to witness something so magical like that.
So there, I locked my door.
And apparently while opening up my door, I accidentally pressed on the lock-key. My door is still using the door-knob kind of thing. You know, it's like when you want to lock it, you just pressed the protruding metal in the center and voila, you're happily locked inside (or outside). Then, I joyfully closed the door from the outside.
So anyway, Debbie and I tried to find the key to the door but to no avail because the key is also locked inside the room. Great, isn't it? Being totally desperate, I decided to do it the punk way..
USE A HAIR PIN.
I watched tonnes of movies that use this method to open a locked door, and let me tell you, it is not even working. Thank you, Directors and Producers for making me believe in this method for 20 years of my life. At least, right before I turn 21 years old, I have already realized that IT'S ALL JUST IN THE MOVIE.
It didn't work. At all. Debbie and I tried this method for like an hour or so. Every single time we heard a 'click' our eyes would widen thinking that we had successfully mastered the beauty of being a thief. But, the door just would not open!
We gave up, looked up on the internet for some locksmiths, found some, called two of them.
One is being totally nice and helpful, while the other is being a pain in a horse's butt.
Since they both charged me $45 (YES, FORTY FIVE FREAKING DOLLARS), I definitely chose the Mr. Nice-and-Helpful.
He came over in less than 15 minutes, took off his shoes for less than 1 minute,
walked over to my room for less than 45 seconds,
and unlock the door for less than 30 seconds.
There. $45 gone in just 30 bloody seconds. Hello, I needed to work for 7 hours to earn that amount of money.. ):
My life is so exciting, I can even entertain myself with my stupidity. Good Lord. |

Remember at the beginning of 2008, I clearly mentioned that 2008 was going to be a better year than 2007?
Apparently, I was wrong.
All the plans are pretty messed up. I am not going to attend any local universities because, oh well, I am just not good enough for them.
My grandmother was in a coma and I just pray to the dear God to let her wait for me until I go back home before He decides to take her away. Seriously, God, if You took her away now, I don't know if I could ever forgive myself for not even being there.
My cousin is in the hospital because of dengue fever. I just hope she'll fight and make it through.
I am going to be homeless in 3 months (unless I could find an affordable place before the due date).
I am going to be jobless in a week because my contract is gonna end there. So, I'm sending out my resumes again in the hope of finding a permanent job that suits me.
I still haven't told my mom that I did not manage to get into any universities. I don't know if she'd understand.
I don't know where the hell my PR offer is right now because I changed postal addresses as often as I change underwear.
I am just so done being angry at everything that is happening in my life, because no matter how angry I am, IT IS STILL HAPPENING and I don't have enough power to change it.
I am done being a teenager with so much anger in me (plus, I am not a teenager anymore!).
I am done being emo because I don't have rooms for that anymore in my heart.
I am done trying to prove to the world that I didn't make a mistake by choosing my own path, instead of the stereotype.
I am done putting such a high hope in something that always fails me at the end.
You know what, World, I declare my defeat.
I just do not know how to feel anymore. I am numb.
But, trust me, Life.
I know you are tough, but I am so much tougher than you.
Thank you for shattering my dreams, because unknowingly, you've also made me strong.
I'm as hard as a steel right now, and I'm never going to give up on you, ever.
- I am gonna go out there, get a job, do something that I totally love.
- I am going to meet my grandmother and tell her I love her and I am gonna make damn sure she knows that.
- I am gonna spread mountains of loves to the people who matter and to the people who deserve it.
- I am going to find a decent job, work really hard until one day, one fine university in this mother earth would appreciate the hard work that I have put in and would accept me and let me strive for my degree.
- I still believe that one day I am going to visit Africa and do something for the kids in there.
And I still know that in doing so, I will never lose myself, my heart and my soul.
I am really sorry life, you can shatter my dreams, push me to the lowest level, be so unfair to me, give me a real tough life.
But you can never steal my soul and my heart.
I am not a quitter. So, try me. |

My goodness, PERIOD, just come already and let me stop having this aching back.
And, Breasts, you could stop giving me so much pain, because it's not funny.
Does it happen to any of you ladies?
Painful breasts, aching back, bloated tummy a few days before your period? |

I've seen your act
And I know all the facts
I'm still in love with who I wish you were
It ain't hard to see
Who you are underneath
I'm still in love with who I wish you were
And I wish you were here..

Tonight, I feel so alive and feel so dead inside at the same time.
I don't know if that's even possible in the history of mankind.
Thank you Wicked Aura for bringing me back to life, for letting me have fun the noise you guys made, and for being such an awesome role model with so much passion, hope and talents. For that one and a half hour of your gig, I felt like life wasn't so miserable and gloomy, I felt like I still have hope to be a somebody in the future, and I felt like I can do whatever I want without having anyone in the world to judge me.
That kind of feeling is rare, and let me tell you, I was so grateful I caught you guys today.
And thank you, boyfriend, for being a mighty asshole of all kinds today.
Your ability to be a jerk is amazing, I have to credit you for that.
Sometimes I just wish there were more 'you' in your sentences, rather than 'I'.. |

Dillon saw a shooting star today when he was walking home alone, we were on the phone, and I told him to make a wish.
He paused a little, and said, "What should I wish for?"
After a second or two, he whispered.. "I wish my girlfriend could get into University."
Let me tell you, THAT is sweet.
--
My sister has been sending me a truckload of sms(es) just because my dad just got her a HANDPHONE yesterday.
And the reason being? SHE MANAGED TO PLUCK OUT HER OWN TOOTH.
My mom would normally force her to go to the dentist to pluck out her teeth because she thinks it's the end of her world when A TOOTH falls off her gum. Sister, I assure you, that is more than just NORMAL.
It is amazing how generous my dad is nowadays. Father, she is barely seven years old! Why would she need a handphone for?
I am not understanding this concept.
On a brighter note, at least she could have her own Disney Princess wallpaper.
She is crazy over Disney Princesses recently and I think it's cute..
When I was young, I had never had this kind of privilege to own a Barbie Doll or a Polly Pocket, leave alone dreaming of becoming a Princess with shell-covered breasts. I always played with my brother's toys. Fake swords, miniature cars,
miniature robots. I even watched Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Ultraman on daily basis, just because my brother loved it.
Anyway, since she loved all these princess stuff, I've gotten a few presents for her birthday, and Dillon has also gotten her a present. All of our presents contain pink, purple, princesses and again, Miss. Shell-Covered-Breasts.
My sister also has a great sense of humor. Yesterday, I was talking to her on the phone. She was mentioning that my mom let her put on nail polish on her nails because she's having a one month holiday.
I went on to ask her, "You painted your toes?"
"Yes!"
"And where else?"
"Hmm.. My face too. Every part of it, including my eyeballs." (she was saying it in a very serious manner)
"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha.."
At this point, I just knew that Dillon would definitely love her. |

| Short and sweet update. |
[Jun. 17th, 2008|11:43 pm] |
:: My one-week of eating healthy succeeded, even though I gave in to the temptation of KFC on Friday, but that was it. The rest of the week, I was eating Yong Tau Foo, Subway, and the sorts. Pooping was so much easier last week, I loved it! (:
:: I worked last Saturday during Fossil Private Sale, and since I'm considered staff I got 60% discount. Awesomeness! So, I purchased an Armani watch for myself, two Armani watches for my mom and dad, and another one more for Dillon's belated birthday present. I'm $550 poorer because of all those, but let me tell you IT'S SO WORTH IT!
:: That splurge of a moment equals to my 2 WEEKS pay. So, I'm packing lunch for this week and next week.. Sandwich and Chips, the only thing I could whip up. Haha. Fast and easy.
:: I am sleepy right now, so I'm not gonna continue this entry. Night.
By the way, everything is so uncertain right now, and I don't even know what I want or what my dreams are anymore.
But, one thing I know for sure, I want that to be with this boy forever, because I feel so comfortable with him, and I don't think anyone in the world could ever make me feel that way. Thank you ya boyfriend.. :$ |

| Detox. |
[Jun. 8th, 2008|09:29 pm] |
I declare that tomorrow onwards, at least for a week, I will be eating healthy meals.
Breakfast will be:
Cereals + Milk, or whatever the office people give me, because it's rude rejecting.. ):
Lunch and Dinner consist of:
At least one serving of vegetables on each meal, and no junk food. Plus FRUITS for dessert.
Beverages will only be water and Marigold Yoghurt Drink (just because I don't think I can live without it right now).
Let's see if I could make it.
Detox in a week starts tomorrow! (: |

Dillon and I decided to catch Accuracy of Death today,
and boy was it awesome!
Everyone should watch it, really.
The title seriously doesn't do the movie any justice.
It has nothing to do with horror, gore, or the-likes.
It's more about life, family, moral values, and comedy.
One of the most beautiful movies I've ever watched in quite a long time. |
