Its Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone!

My Christmas day started out looking glum. It seemed like everyone of my girl cousins made their own plans and it looked like I was about to have a rather lonely Christmas. This thought was brought on by the fact that in recent years, family taditions are no longer seen as traditions, but rather an event that they just simply have to attend, instead of wanting to. But I knew my cousins would pull through, and we ended up having a rather good time!

I went to Shaun's house around 5 plus. Me, Fran, Jonathan, Ruyi, Jac and her friends went to watch I Am Legend at West Mall. I watched it on Christmas Eve, but I didn't mind watching it again. Will Smith is just so watch-able! And its a good movie! Before the movie, we went to Coffee Bean and I think Jonathan heard a little too much than what he wanted! Hee... I found out some stuff about my lil'cuz Fran too! :) So after the movie and some money issues between Jac's friends and us, we went back to Shaun's house. We exchanged the rest of our presents (Jac didn't buy us anything) and almost played Risk, but decided to go sing Karaoke instead. We sang a couple of English oldies and a few more Chinese oldies! There was also the traditional teasing of Jac and messing around with each other...

All in all, it turned out to be a very nice Christmas! :)

Shaun just has to play his games...


Mum and I... The chocolates are good man!


The girl cousins...


We found Fran rather attactive that night! We've become lesbians! Haha...

Zouk

Yup, I finally went clubbing for the first time. Went over to Ting's house around 9 and hung out until close to 11 when we left. We got there early and walked around the area while waiting for Ruyi. I got a sandwich and we slowly made our way back to Zouk. While walking outside Grand Copthorne and fully submerged in Jac's accomodations (hee...), I stepped on something soft. It let out a rather long squeel. I didn't realise it until Ting went ''ew, you stepped on a rat!!!'' Oh damn, I felt so bad for the rat! Unlike most people, I rather like rats. Not a whole bunch at one time, but when it is just one alone, I find them rather amazing. They're very resilient creatures and I think they're rather cute! Anyway, I panicked for about a minute before I calmed down. We met up with Ruyi, and decided to go in without Jac first. It was rather slow, considering it was Friday night, the main area and around 12+. We went on to this other area and danced around for about an hour. Jac didn't enjoy herself too much. As for me, it was alright I guess. I can see why people go there sometimes, but I wouldn't like to go too often. :(

After dancing for a bit, Ruyi wanted to go out. So we went out and sat at this staircase that smelled like urine! Ruyi almost immediately lay her head on my shoulder and was semi-unconscious. Funny, cos she only had about 3 drinks. Anyway, long story short, she threw up at that staircase. Afterwhich, I told Ting to get out bags and head home. Since I needed help getting her into my house, the cousins ended up staying the night. We got home at around 3 and took care of the very dangerous Ruyi until about 5. I cleared up until 6, took a 30 min nap and got up again to check on them. They went home around 8.

It was an average night for me, which could have been better, if only someone hadn't caused us so much trouble. It was alright though, cos we had quite a good time laughing at the funny antics of Miss Ruyi! Muahahaha....

Thanks to the 2 guys that helped us! Sorry we crashed your night! Hee...


Jac was there too, but she arrived after we took this picture and we danced after that. :)

MCR ROCKED MY BRA OFF!!!

Literally! The mosh pit crowd was so violent and rowdy that when jumping, my bra strap was slowly slipping off my shoulders! And it was soooo tight that I had no space to pull it back up! Haha... Seriously, the crowd was the rowdiest I have EVER experienced. They were pushing back and forth all the time! Within the first 15 minutes, there were quite a few people being pulled out cos they couldn't take it. The security guy even had to shine his torchlight to the floor to see if anyone had fallen down! This drove Gerard to say something like ''If you see people falling down, you fucking pick them up, alright?'' No one says ''fuck'' like he does! Haha...
Then there was this stupid vibrator teenager, with long hair, in front of me, and she would push her butt back against me occasionally. Stupid fag. I don't think she was past 16. During the fast songs, she vibrated all the way and when head banging came about, her hair was like tiny whips. I made it a point of putting my elbow right where her head would bang and I was succesful! Hee...

I'm not gonna censor the swear words cos he said lots of it, and it it just a word. Plus, I'm rushing to revise for my WET paper!

Here's the song list (in random order):
The Sharpest Lives
I'm Not Okay
This Is How I Disappear
Dead
Welcome To The Black Parade
I Don;t Love You
House of Wolves (my sis was estatic on this one!)
Cancer
Mama
Sleep
Teenagers
The Desert Song
Helena
Cemetery Drive
You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison
Give Ém Hell Kid
Famous Last Words
I was a little sad that they did not play Disenchanted. That is like a fan fav too. And it was the only song on The Black Parade they didn't play! We were in about the 2nd row, stage right. We were standing near Ray's corner and Gerard occasionally came over to our side. Frank did not come at all! And Mikey came over too. The best thing was, they entered and left from our side!!! And during the fake exit, I could see Ray the whole time taking a break and having some water!

If I were to say everything I wanna say in sentence form, this post will be half the distance of the Wall of China. So here it is in point form...

Highlights of the MCR concert:
- We stood there for almost 2 hours waiting for them to come out
- When ''Basketcase'' came on during the pre-show music, the crowd sang along
- Some people blew up what looked like 4 or 5 condoms and passed them around by throwing them in the air. They were all eventually popped.
- When the greatest band on Earth came out, I cried a little cos it was the realization of a dream!
- I was pushed, shoved, nudged, etc in the mosh pit. I'm just happy that it was not a guy standing behind me, but my sister! I remembered a guy was standing behind me during Avril's 1st concert, and my 15 year old self did not like that!
- One guy behind me had a confession: ''Gerard, I love you! I wanna have your babies!''
- During one of the many interludes, Mikey came over to our side and had to inhale
his nebuliser (like an asthma inhaler). He looked so vulnerable and sweet. He
then came forward and pumped his hands in the air which made us screeeaaammm!
- Up close, Frank looks shorter, Ray looks slightly better, Mikey is skinnier, Bob
wasn't there, I couldn't see Matt Cortez and Gerard is 10 times more handsome!!!
- Gerard and Mikey really look like brothers in real life! You can see the resemblance! I don't look like my sister much... But our mannerisms are the same, unlike Gerard and Mikey.
- Gerard, on behalf of the band, said ''this is our 1st time in Singapore! We wanna
thank all of you for making us feel welcome and I sincerely mean that. Its
amazing that we even get to play Rock n Roll for a living, let alone fly tens of
thousands of miles from that home to play for you guys. Thank you very much,''
right before singing Black Parade.
- Gerard also said ''We're gonna fuck you so hard you're gonna have trouble walking
tomorow!'' And I did! After jumping the night away, my calves and thighs were
hurting the next day cos 1 foot was on the mini-platform and the other on the
floor; it was a balancing act. My neck hurt too cos I was craning it so much and
I had to look straight up just to get some decent air.
- Gerard looked at our direction several times!
- While singing ''Prison'', Gerard looked in our direction yet again, and very
quickly on his left side, FLASHED US HIS RED BOXERS!!! It was the best part. And
he looked sooo sexy doing that! I can't imagine is he was really flirting. I
would just faint! :))))
- In between songs, Frank came to the centre of the stage and drank some water. He
threw the bottle he drank into the audience. He had another unopened bottle and I
just put my hand up to see if I could catch it. He threw the bottle, it bounced
off the hands of the guy that was was standing in front of me, filtered down to
the torso area of the people around, AND I CAUGHT IT!!!! I was screaming my head
off and immediately tucked it under my shirt!



Mikey and his nebuliser.

It was the best night of my life. In the immortal speech of Gerard Way, they showed us the motherfucking time of our lives!

MCR ROCKED MY WORLD!!!

Lovely weather...

Yes, I love the rain and the cooling temperature that comes along with it! I loved it so much that I even missed school yeasterday because of it! Haha... weather so shiok to sleep in that I slept until 9.50 when my class was at 10! Oops...

Nothing much going on except for common test and projects. Our ''break'' is coming up and for 2 weeks, its pretty much going to be reserved all for projects! No banana break la...

While I have no life now, I still have to eat! So here's another one of my food updates...

A long time ago, my mum made us dinner when I came home from school. My one was on the left. Salmon, scrambled eggs and baked beans. YUM. Mum cooks the best meals sometimes... It was sinfully good and I enjoyed every minute of it! :)


Last Sunday, before we watched a movie, we went to Ichiban Sushi, fast becoming our favourite places to eat at JP. We wanted to have a snack, but ended up ordering quite a bit! I wanted salmon (again), so I ordered this dish that I never had before. Wahlau, their portion so much! I couldn't finish it. I just ate the salmon and left more than half the rice behind!


After watching the Golden Compass on Wednesday, we wandered around Vivo and came across this Swarovski crytal Christmas tree. Wow. Imagine a Swarovski crystal curtain... :)


I had read the Golden Compass (Northern Lights) before the movie. I think I read it when I was 15 or 16. I quite liked it. I prefer the 2md and 3rd book though. Which is good because the way the first movie ended, definitely meant that there would be sequels! Unfortunately, I could not remember much of the details of the book, but it gave me a chance to judge the movie seprately! It was rather long and Nicole Kidman was GREAT! The polar bear fight really shocked me. I thought it was a kid-friendly show. Think: the fight between the T-rex's and King Kong in Jackson's ''King Kong''. You know what I mean... :) Overall and alright film. A bit long though...

4 MORE DAYS TO MCR!!!

K.T.

One step closer to MCR!

I really like today... I woke up at nearly 12 (yikes!), which normally would have made me grumpy, cos half the day was gone, but I think the weather kept my spirits up. The raniy/windy/cooling weather has been really nice these days... I love the end of the year. Anyway, Mum suggested going to watch Enchanted again, cos it is just so funny, and cos there are nealry no other shows for us to watch. I did not want to watch too scary a show... I was waiting around for her, and was asking who could come along with me to Clarke Quay, cos I heard that the Black Paraders were gonna be there! Haha... Dad took Mum and I in his cab to see the Orchard lights and on our way back, I randomly suggested changing the station to 98.7. He actually changed it to 98.0 at first, but for some reason, I decided to check whether it was on 98.7, and luckily I did! The Black Paraders advertisement came on, and that's how I knew they were going to be at Clarke Quay! Ting agreed to accompany me, so I took the train to Clarke Quay,we had dinner at Bily Bombers at The Central (I had mashed potatoes and a lemon milkshake), and started our quest for the Black Paraders. After walking around for 15 to 20 mins, we saw two girls that were running with the Sistic tickets in hand. We kinda ignored thaT. Then, we saw another two girls walking rather calmly. So, I asked them if they got the special passes, and they told me that I was just around the corner from getting them! I RAN towards the direction of the Black Paraders, and quickly took my tickets out. A Paul Twohill lookalike took my tickets, marked them, then gave me the passes! I'm gonna be near the front! I walked away with a smile on my face...

My special passes that allow my sis and I to go straight to the front! I'm a Q-jumpa!!!


Shan Wee and I. This marks the second time I've seen him. I don't know what drove me to take this picture with him, but the other girls were asking him, so I thought ''why not?''. Hee...


Good day...

9 MORE DAYS TO MCR!!!
