So after my father passed away, a lot of shit had to be done. Excuse my language. We had to go to the CPF building, Jurong Town Council, NTUC Income and AIA (insurance companies), Great Eastern, DBS, Citibank, SP Services and Courts headquarters. So much admin stuff to settle. So much paperwork to do. Been traveling around with my mom almost every single day. Even now we are not done. There are payments to settle on the 26th. Got a break because of Christmas (thank goodness).

So aside from all these admin stuff, I have also been attending interviews because I apparently did not get the other jobs I signed up for. I think the main reason is because I am screwing up my interviews -.- gahhhhhh. Ok no more screwing up, must get a job by start of Jan. Not for the money, but for the peace of mind. You know that horrible "odd-one-out" feeling? My close friends all seem to have jobs already and here I am jobless.

In my desperation, I googled "How to Ace an Interview". A relatively useful article came out. I shall be nice and share it with you all in case there is someone else losing hope like me.

In other news, during the first week, some of my friends came by to cheer me up and offer their condolences. Brielle and Wendy came by and I appreciated it a lot!! My class girls also came over! Thanks guys :')

Mazi couldn't be there because she was on vacation in Malaysia. She was sorely missed :(

Also, Wendy came over to my house today and introduced me to an American supernatural drama called Sleepy Hollow. OMG it is so awesome, totally my type. I can't stop hyperventilating. It is REALLY worth watching, I swear. Take my word for it. If you're bored at home, try watching this. I am going to force Wendy to come to my house this Saturday so that I can continue watching it on high definition on her laptop. I am not sure if I can find it in such good quality elsewhere. :/ HOOKED.

I'll be hanging out with Wan Ling and Wei Chin (and hopefully Darren) at Sentosa tmr. Hope the crowd isn't bad. >< Anyways, Merry Christmas to those who celebrate Xmas! :)

Brielle's going off to Australia tmr! Hope he has a safe flight! :)

That's all for now.
Goodnight,
Jaslin

2nd surprise

Ok so I got surprised by Wendy and Brielle once already and then some more of my friends surprised me on  the 21st. I was studying at the study room at the Centris with Judy. Mabel was playing cards with Koko and Jiun Yeu and Wei Chin was reading an ebook on his phone. Then Judy and I realised that we had no more water and so went to the Fairprice at JP, which was quite convenient since the Centris is directly connected to JP, with Wei Chin. We got water and some food and was waiting for the lift doors to open so that we could go back to the Centris and guess what happened?

The lift doors opened and there stood Maalikka, Mazi, Jessica, Zhiqi and Shamira with Koko! I was like, WHAT?! I think my jaw literally hit the floor. I know they probably think that the surprise was ruined or something 'cause I wasn't supposed to run into them at the lift. HAHAHA. But I still think the surprise went well because I was very surprised! Like for the whole day, not a single person gave anything away. And the "worse" thing is, the girls had even contacted Koko and Judy and maybe Mabel to plan the surprise. I dunno how they did it seriously xD

They refuse to tell me how they planned everything :( Anyways, the girls got me a really nice chocolate cake. 

sorry abt the poor lighting!

Here are the group photos: 

The Fuhua Gang

The Whole Gang

Got presents from these peeps too! The one I got from the class gals really tocuhed my heart. I feel fuzzy every time I see it. ^^ Knowing that I love 17 magazine, they made me a NINETEEN magazine! How sweet is that? Not only that, inside it's filled with pictures of my favourite stars and role models. SO MANY OF THEM. I really wonder how long they took to find all their pics and make into a collage. Really touched for their effort. :')

Can you see them?? Beyonce, Demi, Leona Lewis, Adam Lambert, the Harry Potter trio, Jennifer Lawrence, they even FOUND TAUFIK BATISAH. And my eye candies Taylor and Zac are in too :D Would also like to thank Brielle and Wendy once again for their surprise, cake and presents! Love the both of you too :)
                                        
That's all for now folks! I'm grateful that God has given me 19 healthy and safe years in this world and awesome friends like this. :)

Last day of school!!

Last day of school baby! :) 

Today was Ms. Aisha's last day at school so our class presented her with a board that has all our pictures stuck on them as well a personal message. Mr Ang is also leaving next year so we also prepared one for him. 

After that I went to IMM with my mom and met up with Wendy. We window shopped there and then went to Jurong POint to continue shopping. Mom went home on her own. I tried on this dress at Cache Cache and fell in love with it. I shall lose some weight and then go and buy it next month. PLEASE WAIT FOR ME DRESS. DON'T LET ANYONE ELSE BUY YOU. 

Somehow my legs are aching a lot from all the walking around. I am such a weakling. :/ Anyways, it's the Lit retreat tmr!! Can't wait!! :) 

Feelings are dumb

So I was reading Fifty Shades of Grey and I realised that minus the overly descriptive sex scenes, the plot is actually quite nice! *spoiler alert*

I was on the verge of tears when Anastasia was crying over Christian. Poor girl :( In love with a guy that wants to whip her for pleasure o.O *shudders* Someone said it's like Twilight. I beg to differ actually. This is much more easy to relate to because it's a human being and not a vampire! 

I really want to know what Christian looks like! He sounds so hot in the book. :X I wonder if they will turn this into an R-rated movie next time. And I wonder if I will actually watch it...

Anyways, going for work tomorrow. I need all the luck I can get. xD

7 Things You Should Know About Me

1. I used to have a brother...Peter. He was older than me by seven years. He, unfortunately passed away in his infancy. My mother does not like to talk about it much, so I am unsure about the cause of his death. I just know it had something to do with milk. Choking maybe? Damn, I would have liked to have an older brother. 

2. My crushes ALWAYS find out I am crushing on them. Some find out through me, some find out through my friends. Wendy disclosed two of them in secondary school. Thanks a lot dear. At first it is always awkward, but then we become friends after that. For most cases. There are some losers that just can't bear to be in my presence after that. But to hell with these kind of losers eh? 

3. I have been in love before. For real. In Secondary school. But it was unrequited so this topic depresses me. I shan't elaborate any further. 

4. I have read Fifty Shades of Grey. Not the whole thing, just pages 77 to 94, which basically is a ___ scene. I was bored one day, and decided to read that book for fun. I had read pages 1 to 10 before and found it rather boring. So I flipped to page 77 because 7 is my lucky number. And Viola! They were talking about signing a contract between them so that no one else except them finds out that they are going to do "that thing". -.- So I was like, who the hell signs a contract about such things? And somehow I kept reading...and couldn't stop. SO whatever little purity I had, I lost it all as I read the next pages. :( Curiosity and too much time on its hand, killed the cat. 

5. I almost turned to the dark side when I was young. You see, I met this guy on Habbo Hotel last time. He told me he is a Satanist, and that he can control the four elements. And that he can tap into black magic. I don't know what got into me, but I tried to do whatever he told me to do so that I can control the elements too. I know it involved meditating a lot. Then one day I got scared and snapped out of it, prayed to God for forgiveness and stopped talking to that Habbo guy. Ps. He was my longest Habbo relationship, and I had become emotionally attached. So it was pretty hard withdrawing from him. :( Haha!

6. I want to either be a singer or the editor of a fashion magazine. I am not a brilliant vocalist and neither do I have incredible fashion taste so I wonder how and if I will even achieve these dreams. Sigh. There are other things I don't mind being either. Like, an Author or an English teacher. But it HAS to be in the media or creative industry. NO engineering or whatever for me. 

7. I REALLY am  obsessed with the idea of living in America. My aunt lives in New York so I really want to shift to her house after A Levels so that I can apply to an University over there. :) Fingers crossed that this can actually happen :)
