The Great Escape

2012 January 25
by ✿ren

Announcing this in case I’m being scatterbrained as usual: GUYS, PA HAS BEEN DISCHARGED. :D

That’s good news #1.

Good news #2– I’ve also, finally, after so long, gone and read the Twelve Kingdoms novels on my shelf. I’ve now started re-watching the anime. Both the novels and anime are, in their own way, so good. SO GOOD. This is easily one of my favourite stories.  <3

News #3– Something I sang one Friday night in LA. Ahahah, hahah…

Cheerios~

I do not deserve these friends I have in my life.

This means you, Ade & Puey, for my abrupt departure from our lunch date and for waiting for a cab with me this afternoon.

It also means you, Ai and Ru, for tomorrow’s dinner, after I had to cancel tomorrow’s date.

Today, I realised just how removed I seem to be from displays of affection, or societal obligations, or people, or myself. Or perhaps it’s because Pa and I have a long and well-known history of fiery head-butting– I seem to take after him in more ways than I should.

So anyway, I have to thank you guys for making me a better person.

For now, life happens, and life goes on; while I try to take the future one day at a time.

I’m glad to be in Singapore.

Christmas 2011 & What Really Happened

Haha am incredibly sleepy right now, but I thought I should post this before 2012 rolls around in another 24 hours, so here it goes:

All three of my housemates gave something for Christmas. I felt like a selfish prick just eating all those cookies and fudges and using the brand new dish rack… ^^;

Taking care of Max (short for Maximus Decimus Meridius) for the holidays, because everyone in the office has gone away. Spent the first week worried because he wasn’t eating, but everything’s back to normal now!

Christmas eve was spent catching up with Bernie and weaving through crowds in the Fashion District (very much like a Spanish version of Ameyoko in Tokyo). And then meeting Santa Claus on the bus to delicious food (bacon! grilled pineapple!) served by Kaej at the guys’ place. I went there for the Bacardi though. Jan had to give me two panadol pills for the massive headache I got as a result. Lightweight. OTL

So that was it for Christmas. I promise not to imbibe as much alcohol in 2012 than I have so far in 2011. Happy new year!

You’d Still Not Know Me Any Better

Today, I was looking through photos from when I was in Buenos Aires, and realised that I’d taken a couple of outfit photos in front of a bit of leftover film props:

✿ rust floor cardigan, mint dress, jacket: forever21
✿ shorts, knee-high socks: forever21
✿ slate boyfriend cardigan: target
✿ scarf, tights: online
✿ shoes: levi’s (via ross)

✿ long sleeved top: uniqlo
✿ rust floor cardigan, knee-high socks: forever21
✿ skirt: zara (buenos aires)
✿ shoes: levi’s (via ross)

And, a couple of months back when one of the places I report to here in the US had a small get-together; we had to play a game of divulging one professional goal, one personal, and one silly fact. The cards would then be shuffled and passed around to be read aloud, and the reader would have to guess who wrote the card.

These were mine, with a storyboard I was working on in the background. Obviously, I’m not very proficient in pouring out my heart and soul; or at least in a serious manner. ^^;

I wouldn’t be talking to my computer if I had Jesca to talk to. :(
In fact, I wouldn’t even be snacking at all. :((

And some nonsense I did a month back to make Shasha jealous:

Today, I forgot about my cup of hot chocolate while working. When I finally remembered about it and took a sip, it was the sensory equivalent of iced milo back in Singapore. OTL

A month more before I embrace the sun on the earth’s equator!

Warning: Copious amounts of fandom, narcissistic shots with big name people, posing in nervous excitement next to awesome cosplayers, some photobombing, non-existent commentary, and Star Wars.
