Music for the soul

I have been downloading songs into my nano .. and Gosh ... Music is really food for the soul ... I have been neglecting my CD Collection for the longest time and with me loading my fav songs to itunes and listening to the songs without the TV brought me back to the time when I was in au .. staying at TEDS where i went without watching TV for 7 months.. bwahahahah (yes ... see I CAN LIVE WITHOUT TV). And the songs are songs which bring back MEMORIES... like the times they accompanied me thru MATHS ... and horrible subjects like legal studies ... blah .. and the times which Aaran and myself was blasting during the weekends like the PRESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES (whatever happened to that Grp) and waking drunks with hungover the size of Ozzieland.. not that it helped that we were also Half drunk battling hangovers with more booze .. oh the life of Hostel life... ME LIKEY ...

During Supper with J and KJ today reminded me that it was almost 10 years ago where we "chatted" with friends over TELNET and IRC-ing over the unix system .... kekek MIRC was not heard of till 97 my dears .. and the late nights chatting and "buaya-ing " we did (which brought me much joy and sorrows, Karma is really shitty I swear) and the friendship that still stands. OH how I wish I could really turn back the clock ... There are many friends I made over IRC which I wished I had made more of an effort to upkeep and maintaned .. Friends which have came and went .. but I really treasure the friends I Made during my years in UNI .. and still keep in contact ... So if you are reading this and know me ... and is still my friend .. U ARE THE BEST ... BFF ... bwahhaah see how cool me is now .. bwahahahah

The best thing that have happened to me recently would have to be the first msg I typed to KJ recently .. bwahaah .. that led to more messages and a dinner with the rest of the NC group and more dinners and coffee and chats and MAD MAD Stuff .. seriously .. like I was telling J .. I met KJ more times the last 2 weeks than the last 9 years ... bwaahahha after a whole good 9 years... hahah see .. if you are still on my MSN list (which alot of you peeps are... MSG MSG MSG ) ..I plomise no more long absences from these friendships ....

now ... it is seriously time to sleep ... 2 am is not very healthy .... not when B's wedding is 2 weeks away ... Me no wanna be a panda ..

Gosh

I have been loading songs into my ipod nano and I realised what OLD tastes I have in music...bwahahah ... seriously .. who at my age listens to dionne warwick and andy williams ... bwahahahahah ... I have the weirdest taste in music ..

Batam again

Went over to our nearest indonesian island yesterday with J and S ... and boy was it a fun day ....

We had so much fun shopping, doing our hair and basically chatting like old times (ie circa uni days ... )

These days , I have been kept busy meeting old friends and making new friends outside scrapbooking ... and Thank goodness for friends like KJ who is basically as mad as me .. wahahahahah .. we both can roam the streets doing nothing .. bwahahahh .. except eat ... which is goood for the soul but seriously bad for the body .... but good ...

Have to do this more often ... good for the soul ..

On another note ..

I have been feeling better recently ..been kept busy with B's wedding preparation and nothing more ... kekekek have not been scrapping for abit .. and slowing down participation in forums .. been out of touch with the scrapping world for quite abit .. so dun forget me so soon okay ?? I will be back .... soon .. :)

The Hunt....

for Chai Latte...

What was a harmless message sent at 5pm to KJ from Me that read ... Wanna have dinner ... became a hunt for Coffee Bean and Tea Leaves "CHAI LATTE" ( well it was supposed to be abbriviated but it would have read ... CB & TL .. gosh wat a horrible abbriviation rite ??? ) ...

Anyways ... Picked KJ up at his work place in bedok and we went for the YUMMIEST FRIED CHICKEN in the east at the Airport ...POPEYE's Fried chicken ... and a sudden craving for Chai Latte sent both of us searching for Coffee Bean ... and what do you know ... The 2 places we went (white sands and Century Sq) did not have one ... and what was supposed to be a short trip sent us all over the East to find one ... and alas ... no Coffee Bean ... but our back up plan was the Mc Cafe at East Coast ... which by then was 1 hour past the time we started .... And since we were heading to East Coast Parkway, we also picked up a 3rd party ... J ... bwahahahahaha ... so all 3 of us set out to find the elusive Chai Latte ... which was found ... OPPOSITE MC Cafe .... So KJ got his fix of Chai Latte and we gals went to have Waffles at Gelare .... woooopeedooo ... Here is the picture of the Super ELUSIVE CHAI LATTE....

Xanadu .... Wow .. this song brings back sooooo much memories .. and Hard to belive that it is almost 30 years old ... ALMOST .. I AM NOT THAT OLD .. Bleah ... but yes .. it was the SONG of my childhood ... this was the show that made me wanna Roller skate and be like ONJ ... bwahahaahah ... and the lyrics ... full of hope and joy for the moment and future ..

I have been changing ... slowly, some of you may have seen slight changes ... :) kekekeek ..

lyrics here ... compliments of Lyrics on Demand .... (God, I so love the internet... )

A place where nobody dared to go
The love that we came to know
They call it Xanadu

And now
Open your eyes and see
What we have made is real
We are in Xanadu

A million lights are dancing
And there you are
A shooting star
An everlasting world
And you're here with me
Eternally

Xanadu, Xanadu,
(now we are here)
In Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu,
(now we are here)
In Xanadu

Xanadu, your neon lights will shine
For you, Xanadu

The love
The echoes of long ago
You needed the world to know
They are in Xanadu

The dream
That came through a million years
That lived on through all the tears
It came to Xanadu

A million lights are dancing
And there you are
A shooting star
An everlasting world
And you're here with me
Eternally

Xanadu, Xanadu,
(now we are here)
In Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu,
(now we are here)
In Xanadu

Now that I'm here
Now that you're near in Xanadu
Now that I'm here
Now that you're near in Xanadu
Xanadu...

FFC

Far Flung Crafts is launching their new paper range this thursday and I am really glad to be part of this launch. I had the chance to view and play with these papers recently and all I have to say is .. they are really lovely to work with ... K has shown off some of the papers in her blog, so I guess that it is okay that I show some sneaks here eh ... :)

2 layouts using the fabulous Bollywood Range, The papers are in lovely colors of Purples, Turquoise and Fuschia .. and truthfully , my first reaction was ... how am I to use such colors.. they are sooo not me, but after looking at it and using it, I was suprised at how versatile they were to use .. here are some sneakies : -

SB Blogging

Okay, I have been caught up with the whirlwind of events happening around me at the moment and have not had time to scrap and participate in the forum and blog here except for ranting … SB posts coming up . No layouts thou

Should I ??? Should I not ???

Well I guess if you are my friend on Facebook, my most recent question was ... should I or should I not go to LA next feb for CHA Winter ...So should I or should I not ??

Well .. I have been thinking rather hard since K asked me and I am sooooo tempted .. It is almost every scrapbooker's dream to have layouts showcased in CHA .. and to be there is even more of a heart stopper .. imagine being in the same room as our SB idols and manufacturers showcasing new new new products, many still in prototype samples but still .. LIVING BREATHING SCRAPBOOKING ... woooohooo ... and the thing is this show is more like for businesses and not for retail sales ... but ... IT IS TEMPTING .. so we shall see ...

cheap airfares

anybody knows where to find cheap airfares to LAX during the CNY period ??? been surfing ard but almost all is abv 1.3k ... and that is like a 30 hour plus trip to .. and almost 2 days to come back ... sighz .. how ???
