girly or not

oh dear good gracious. another coworker just mentioned that i'm not a typical girly girl, and they actually meant it as a compliment.

strange how people tell me these things voluntarily, it's really not like i asked them about it. and i guess i somewhat agree, but what is it specifically? that i usually don't wear makeup? or that i occasionally use the word 'stripper'.

like a warm blanket

yen's right, good friends are like a big giant all-weather coat. they try to shield you from harm, and while you can't avoid getting a little bit of rain, you're mostly dry and warm underneath.

i thank my lucky stars that i have friends all over. old friends whom you grow up with (i can't quite remember a time not knowing you cempakans), and new friends you make along the way. especially those whom you don't expect but god places them there at the right moments to support you through the bumps on the road.

my y hovers around 20.

job prediction

hahaha i guess i should grow a tail?

my drunken posse

so yesterday night was an interesting night. drunk people really kinda reveal certain things. by accident. *grin*

but it was a lot of fun. i was sober (yes thankfully), but this time had to take care of all of my drunk friends, all of whom kept on wandering around and getting lost, hitting on girls, then complaining of girls hitting on them (duh?), stealing my shoes and my keys, buying each other shots. it was almost out of control.

it was a good weekend.

eh

okayyyy i think i get drunk tooo oftennnnnnnnnn

it's 4/20 guys...

smokeitup smokeitup.

happy easter

austin is amazing. seriously amazing. i wish i had gone to school here, who would have known i love texas.

6th street. jet-skiing. sun-bathing. go-karting. miniature golfing. horseback riding. and the people. oh i love the people.

the craziness of 6th street:



okay and haha oops i spent almost every night drunk. unfortunately there's evidence.

a few kinks here and there though. stressful situations, emotions riding raw. this is one eventful weekend.

AUSTIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

time to play time to play. in 86 degree weather.

australia

i was paddling in a one-person canoe. the waters looked amazing; crystal-clear and sparkly almost.

but within a few minutes, i fell asleep. woke up with a jolt to find out that i had drifted into the middle of some bay, and definitely panicked. i mean. i couldn't locate the shore. how the heck did i fall asleep while paddling??? *bang head* i frantically looked around, made a random guess where i had originally come from, and paddled furiously.

i remember the ride was ridiculously smooth. sailed across the waters, not to mention almost smacked into another fellow canoe-er because i think i might have been going a little too fast. docked on shore and ran up the beach to look for something familiar.

phew. bumped into mindy, and she told me that some water competition was going on. ohhhh that explains these abosolutely huge but GORGEOUS boats that were hanging out. there were colorful flags, participants in all kinds of wetsuits, and people cheering. i looked towards the beach and there's this massive rock formation where there was a rock-climbing competition going on. spotted ajay climbing up and down up and down to practise. he was really fast.

walked into some cafe with mindy, chatted with some locals, and ran into shen. was chatting to her about something, then my phone rang.

what a vivid dream. definitely one of my better ones so far.

taxes are due

remember apr15th. my taxes are driving me crazy. i'm paying taxes everywhere just cuz i've worked in 3 states. something's wrong.

and i've definitely ODed on cereal.

friends

so here's a problem. i have too many guy friends. now people won't want to hang out with me cuz i have no female friends to introduce them to.

weird that most of my closest female friends aren't around. i miss them. i love girly talk.

top 15 skylines

i don't necessarily agree with the ratings, and some of the pictures really don't do justice to the skylines (and besides, HMPH, san francisco isn't one of them), but i agree with number 8. my heart will always belong there.
