Singapore, safe or not??

Last Sunday, I went to my Grandpa's house right after church service. After having dinner, I sat on the sofa, feeling pretty bored cos I had nothing to do. I just stared into space, literally... My dad, mom, as well as my Aunt were chit-chatting at the dining table. Then, I heard the word 'loan sharks'! I was taken aback as I listened to their conversation.
Apparently, some loan sharks had mistaken my Grandpa's house for one of their debtors. As usual, they would splash red or black paint all over the door. My Aunt reported this disturbing case to the police. Their attitude was horrible! They just told her to buy a CCTV. And they said something like, you have to help us look out for suspicious looking people, ok? Now what? They are pushing all the responsibility on us when we are seeking them for help? What is the meaning of that??? This whole thing concerns the safety of the people living in my Grandpa's house and all they could say is, buy a CCTV??? Outrages!
Also, my Aunt had to pay hundreds of dollars to pay for the painting of the doors and walls outside her house when the housing government had specifically said that anything outside the apartment is not our property, making the government in charge of the painting!
Everyone always says that Singapore is a very safe place, but is it?................

Unbearable!!!!

I have had my mouth ulcer for almost a week and there is still no sign of recovering. Instead, it is getting biger and bigger and becoming more and more unbearable!!! I can't even enjoy my mushroom swiss burger in BK for lunch just now! The pain is just sooo excruciating!!! I should have stayed away from all those haety and fried food earlier! Oh, how I regret no having done so! I am just so upset right now!! awwwwwwwww.
Anyway, I really hope that it will recover before I travel to Malaysia to sink my teeeth into a whole lot of mouth-watering food! 所谓:经一事,长一智,now that I have learnt my precious lesson, I would try my very best not to eat too much fried and heaty food and start leading a healthier lifestyle!

Does looks really matter?

Everytime I look into the mirror only to see that my looks aren't even comparable to some celebs, I would sigh dejectedly and ask myself why on earth I look like that. But then I asked myself, does looks really matter?

Well, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. For some people, looks are very important, while for others they look for the beauty of the heart. For me, I think looks does matter, especially now that we live in a superficial world, where although we don’t always like it, those who have more appealing looks have more advantages as compared to those who are simple and not as good looking.

Look at Megan Fox for instance. Do you think that she would have all the fame and money she’s having today if not for her attractive and appealing looks? No! Celebs, actresses and artistes get all their fame and money from their outer beauty and not from having a big heart for others (at least most of them would).

Now, let’s look at Zoe Tay. Ten-twenty years ago, she was one of the prettiest actresses and was often on the cover page of magazines. She was popular because of her looks. However, after she grew older, started to have wrinkles and became a mother, she no longer had the fame she used to have. (Sorry, no offence)

Also, having bad looks may affect your self-esteem and may make you feel left out especially when you’re with people with good looks. Sometimes, you may also be discriminated due to your “different” look. And although it’s not a fair thing to do, many people choose their friends based on their looks.

Further more, it’s an undeniable fact that good looks matter greatly when choosing one’s life partner. Without good looks, one will not be able to attract the opposite sex and may have a hard time getting a life partner.

Having said all these, it doesn’t mean that personality does not matter. In fact, personality dominates looks! Unfortunately, we are living a superficial world, where justice and fairness is not always upheld. Nevertheless, you must always remember that outer beauty will vanish someday whereas the beauty of the heart is imperishable. Therefore, regardless of where you come from, how you look like, you must always believe that you are beautiful.

Wow! I'm starting to think that my looks aren't that bad at all! I just have to lose some kilos and I'll be as charming as........ Megan Fox?.........Angelina Jolie?........Na, just joking! Hahas....

Always remember, no matter what u look like, no matter where u are from, just believe in yourself and make the best of everything that you have. Be positive and who knows? a guy might just be attracted to your smile!
Good luck!

My tooth dropped!!!

OMG!!! My tooth had just dropped a few minutes ago! Well this was how it all happened......

At about 3 hours ago, I ate three samosas that my mum had bought from her office, Prudential. It was so 'mamalicious'!!! Then, "CRACK"! My back tooth cracked! It was sooooooo loose that it was like, dangling in my mouth! The blood was flowing non-stop! I had to rinse my mouth a thousand times before the blood had stopped flowing. Then, at a few minutes ago, while I was searching for a movie time slot to watch with my great friend, my tooth dropped onto my tongue! Wow! I was soooooooo glad that it had fallen tonight instead of dropping tomorrow at school where I am sure all my friends would be laughing at me. I am so thankful that my tooth had dropped just before my sleep time. Yay! Now, time for some peaceful sleep. Nite, nite and sweet dreams....

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz *snoring*

3 whacky beauty tips! OMG!

While surfing the Internet, I've found some interesting and whacky beauty tips that I  would like to share with u. It is really interesting and will blow your mind away!

Give your hair some shine
Whacky solution: mix some vinegar with water and soak your dry hair in it. Leave it on for approximately 15 minutes before rinsing it off. Before you know it, your hair will be glistening in the sun.


Smoothen your dry and rough skin
Pick out some ripe avocados and mash them up into a bowl after removing the skin and pit. Mix it up well and you will end up with a lotion-like texture. Slather it all over your body and let it set for about 20 minutes before rinsing off.
Get pearly white teeth
Strawberries are the perfect remedy for stained teeth as they contain malic acid, a natural stain remover. Try rubbing the strawberries directly onto your teeth or throwing some into a bowl and mashing them up into a paste before using a toothbrush to brush it on. Leave it on for about five minutes before rinsing off.

Well, I've yet to try these whacky beauty tips but I am pretty sure it will work. Why not give it a try and tell me your results!

Stressed out by PSLE!

Wow! After a long and stressing period of time, exams are finally over!!! I've all my results finalized and am proud to have done well for both english (1st in the whole Primary 6 level) and mathematics(1st in class)! I am really both ecstatic and proud to have gotten all As for my subjects.

Still, I ought not be so happy until after my PSLE. I'm really nervous for the PSLE. It's my final year and I really hope to get into a good secondary school. I plan to go to SST (School of Science and Technology Singapore). I do hope to get above 260 for my PSLE and make my teachers and parents proud. Do you have any tips for scoring well in my final year examination cos I'm really nervous and stressed?

Food problem

In Singapore, we have many, many delicious foods. As I have got a great appetite, I’ve tried almost every popular and tasty food there is in Singapore. Trust me, you’re gonna love the taste of it. You can imagine yourself right now, sinking your teeth into these mouth-watering foods. Well, we have hokkien mee, char kuew teow, rojak, hor fun, mee goreng and so much more!


However, talking about all those irresistible foods, you also will have to watch out for your health. Do you know that one third of the Singaporeans are overweight? I guess it’s because they can’t resist the good food and eat at much as the want to and can’t control themselves. That is a problem that I face when wanting to lose some kilos. I just give in to temptation! It was a horrible feeling when I see people eating their food with great relish while I have to just stare at them, smelling the aroma of the foods, so, I just ate. And when I eat, I eat more, more, and more! I’m 155cm (height), and am already slightlyoverweight!
But, in all things you do, there is a consequence. For me, eating too much has made me “not slim”. Well, I guess the lesson learnt here is that, resist temptation (good foods), and not to overeat. I’m trying to change my overeating habit, but I don’t know how. Do u have any suggestions? (no going on diet cos you’ll gain more weight than you lost when u stop dieting.)

Shut Up!

As I'm writing my post right now, all I could feel is irritation. My neighbour is drilling something to the wall and is just so freaking noisy in here. I just feeling like giving him a piece of my mind. I just came home from school and all I want is just some peace and quiet, but now, it's damn noisy! I couldn't even focus on my homework! The drilling just keeps ging on and on and on and on.......... I just can't stand it any longer! Oh, for goodness sake, shut that damn thing up!!!
This is getting more irritating by the minute. To worsen my mood, my brother threw a ball on my head and laughed at me. My blood really boiled and I felt like giving him a punch, but unfortunately, my mom is at home. (I wouldn't do that even when she's not around cos he will fight back, harder!)Wow, thins time, it's even louder! 救命啊!This can really drive me to my grave!
Help Me!!!

Can money really buy happiness?

Since young, I had always dreamt of being a millionaire, better still, a billionaire. I dreamt of living in big houses, driving big houses, having servants to serve me…. “That would be the perfect life!” I always thought to myself. As I grew older, I started to ask myself, “Can money really buy me happiness?



I remembered that my mother would always donate to the poor, take time off to buy things for the less fortunate. As I wasn’t that giving and did not like the fact that my mother was giving to the poor, I would sometimes say to her, in frustration, “Mommy, what’s the point of giving all these to the poor? It’s not as if you’re going to have a billion bucks after doing that. You’re just wasting your hard-earned money!” However, she’d just continue what she was doing. I had always thought that she was wasting precious money, but now, I realized something. My mother was the most cheerful person in the family because she does not love money. She was not afraid that her money would be stolen, and loved the smiles on the faces of the people whom she gave things to. She loves to give. My mother does not earn big bucks, have maids to serve her (used to), nor does she live in big houses, but she is happy. What about me? I only wanted to have more and more and was never contented with what I already have. I did not treasure my wonderful family, my friends who are always there for me, my teachers who teach me new things and so much more!


So, can money really buy happiness? No. The act of giving can buy happiness. Treasuring and appreciating what you already have can buy happiness. So, stop earning and start giving! Please comment! :)

Careless mistakes! Ai yah!

I had just gotten my maths paper back today. I scored 92/100, third in class (highest is 93/100). I had expected myself to do much better than that cos it was quite an easy paper. When I flipped through the exam paper, I realized that I could have gotten 96/100 for the paper. I was just so careless! There was one question where I already had the answer written on the paper, but due to my carelessness, I wrote 99000 instead of 990 000! That was just so disappointing!
Last year, I got 64/100 for maths in the final exam (I had deproved a lot last year). 20-30 marks were gone due to carelessness! That was even worst. It is definitely not a good feeling to see your precious marks just gone like that. I really want to stop being careless, but how? Please give your suggestions. Thanks:)

Could he be the one?

When I was younger, I used to have many, many crushes. I can have new crushes in any minute! I can have a crush while blogging, in school, or even while walking around the neighbourhood! I have got no idea why, perhaps it's just human nature, to want to bond with others. However, now I have got a crush whom I think is one in a million. He may not be very dashing, but he has got personality, and that is the most important thing. Well, unfortunately, he claimed to have a crush when we played the game-truth or dare. Well, it may or may not be true, so, I dunno... maybe I'll let fate decide. Wish me good luck!

P.S.: Who knows? I might have a better crush a/ vh minute from now.

Left out

I don't know if you guys have experienced the feeling of being left out. Well, I have. I usually do when I'm with my friends. I don't know why I find that others are more fun, interesting and talkative than I am, and hence have more friends than I do. Even my good friends seem to be happier with others. I'm not girly, not very talkative, not very smilely but I'm me! Sometimes, I even tried changing my facial expressions (I don't really smile), be more open, or should I say "girly" (yuck!). However, I just don't see results and feel that I should be myself. I hope that u can share your thoughts on how I can improve on my personality and make more friends. 
P.S.: I'm quiet in school but humourous, talkative, and noisy with my brother. I get irritated easily too.

The thought of my Principal...

The thought of my principal makes me question the MOE's ability to choose a school's principal. Wanna noe why? Well, my principal is just utterly ridiculous, unreasonable, naggy......she is just indescribable(negative form)!
Talk about naggy. Does she have too much exess saliva, or just 吃饱没事做(nothing better to do)?! She nags even at the slightest thing we do. There was once when she said, "Girl, the hall is so warm, is there a need to wear a jacket? Take it off." I was like, "huh? What's the problem with her?" It does not mean that the girl will feel warm just because the principal is. Everytime I see her, I would quikly run away, if not, she may be talking to me for one whole day...
You know what? Her chinese is no good at all and yet, she talks as if her chinese is so good that we have got to take her as a role model or something. And that just makes me say, "Wow, she has PERFECT CHINESE PRONOUNCIATION." Of course I said that sacarstically. I remembered once when our school had this exchange programme where some pupils from our school went to a school in shan dong and some pupils from shan dong went to our school. When the pupils came to our school, my principal made an opening speech in chinese. She would have to say "um..." at least 2 times per sentence. Furthermore, she pronounced the words wrongly. Imagine what the china teachers would be thinking.  Many of my friends were giggling, including myself.
Share with me your thoughts about having a principal like her. I doubt u would enjoy even a bit of it.

Mixed feelings about the Singapore Integrated Resort

Should the Casino ever be made at the first place? Well, I would like to share my opinions with u about that. The government said that having the Casino would create jobs for the jobless and attract more tourists to Singapore. In my opinion, those were just lame excuses. If u think that that is right, then I can say that I would like to be a loan shark boss so that I can help the jobless by letting them be my runners and paying them their salary! And that is just so wrong!


I feel that as long as something is wrong, nothing can ever change the fact that it is wrong. Just like lying, it does not mean that a white lie is not a lie, it’s still a lie. I feel that the government was ‘not being clever’ when they decided to build the Casino. Their main aim is to have money rolling in, that’s all. Singapore might be in heavy debts if more and more people goes to the Casino. That was just a guess, so, we’ll have to wait and see…

Rabbits in the house!

Last year, I had had two lovely female rabbits. One of them is white in colour (Gracie) while the other is black (Mercy). They did not belong to me as I am just helping HRSS (The House of Rabbits Society Singapore) foster them.


They were really a bundle of joy! I had always enjoyed playing and petting them and my heart never fails to skip a beat each time I see them performing bunny binkies out of sheer delight.

Their favourite food are sweet potato leaves, Chinese celery and of course, carrots! I remember that every time I was about to place the bowl of food into their playpen, they would always get wild with excitement and never stop jumping around. Seeing them so excited just makes me burst into laughter!

Of course, there were also things I didn’t like about having a rabbit. The thing I dislike the most is the litter box cleaning. The smell was bad but the sight of the ‘small round things’ were even worse. But anyway, I guess it was worth it after seeing how comfortable and happy they were when they had their fresh and clean litter box back.

Much to my chagrin, I had to return them soon after my maid was sent back due to the complains my parents made regarding the time we needed to put in to take care of them. I really missed them…
