A letter to my 16 yr old self

Read from Cruz Teng's blog about him writing a letter to his 16 yr old self and I thought that it is fun to write one to my (old) self too.

Dear young pH,

And so your 16 yr old bday is approaching, and you are feeling old and wrinkly and fat. DO NOT WORRY. Because 7 years down the road, you will be oldER, wrinklER, and fatTER. I am not trying to scare you here. So if you want to look betTER, start exercising like, NOW. IMMEDIATELY. Whenever your friends (ky, yq, viv, rl, jason) asked you to exercise, heed their advices please. and do not disappoint them. Most of all, do not let yourself down anymore and start JIAN-fei-ing!

I know that you are worrying about how your olevels will be like and whether you will be friends forEVER with your sec2o2 buddies. dont worry. All will be well :) You will get into your dream course and get to know extremely WONDERFUL friends who will be there for you - though you'll realise that you are not really cut out for your dream course.

As for your sec2o2 buddies, a smaller group call "MOCHI" will be formed, and you will continue to stay in contact with them, and even plan trips with them. So dont fear of losing your friends. You might feel kinda weird that most of them went into JC and UNI and you.. poly and then pt uni. Despite the differences, you will still be you, maybe just not as happy as before due to the responsibilities of an adult (sigh).

In 2004/2005, something will happen with you and one of your best friends & her exbf. DO NOT INTERFERE. I REPEAT. DO NOT. It will be one of your biggest regrets of the next 7 yrs. Moreover, everything bad between them will be over and she is currently happy. So please dont do anything and that will help to salvage the friendship.

In 2006/2007, you will be displeased about how irresponsible one of your groupmates is. JUST. VOICE. OUT. You can throw whatever temper you are capable of throwing, but just say whatever you are feeling instead of trying to care about that person's feelings. It might aid in the current situation, though I doubt that it will help much. But at least, you tried, and you voiced out your frustrations.

In 2007/2008, you will get to know a group of great friends from an online forum. Try not to get yourself hurt from one of them, though I dont think you will heed your own future self's advice.

After your poly, dont even think of trying for local ft uni. NO NEED WASTE TIME LAR. just enjoy working with your temp colleagues and nice friends - limei, valerie, benson, jie ying, jing yi, yi feng & weimin. they are people whom u will always remember from your first FT job.

You will then get a job at a respectable company in Singapore and though the pay basically sucks, you will make wonderful, WONDERFUL colleagues whom you will call FRIENDS (: It must be something excellent that you have done in your past life to have such colleagues and please do treasure them!

In 2009, there will be a crisis in your family and through it, you will learn to be stronger in times of crisis, as well as treasure and love your family more. You will also find yourself depending on the rest of the family for support - especially your siblings. They may seem noisy and useless and ARGHHHHHH! now, but trust me, they will always be the ones who are there for you though thick and thin. And dont worry, everything is fine as of 27/5/10, so there is nothing you should worry about (yet).


OH and please stop thinking of DM. 7 years down the road, he will turn into a little sparkle of the past. AND sorry to disappoint you, he will be happily attached and -uglier-. Oh well, life goes on.


Lastly, learn to accept vulgarities and embrace the wonderful of profanities :) You will love sprouting them, especially in times of despair and frustrations. It helps to ease the tension in you. So go ahead free free (it's free anyway) to slam as much profanities as you want, just not in front of your family - out of respect.


Love,
the older pH.


p.s: you will still looooove purple.
p.p.s: pls start listening to MAYDAY SONGS and memorise their lyrics. it will come in handy at their future concerts =P

The feeling of ISoWannaShitButIHaveSoMuchToDoThatIHaveNoTimeToShit..


IS TERRIBLE.
Really.

Some people.. are meant to be acquaintances.
forever.

Today (21st may, Fri) is a fulfilling day. and I mean REALLY fulfilling.

Morning FA paper. omg bu yao shuo le.
Then after that, back to co. to visit the colleagues awhile.
And Lunch with mama after that @ Bishan.
Followed by katong with senior LD and he accompanied me to cut my fringe.
THEN met up with Resa, cheny, rl and jason for a fun-filled night of food + ktv.

Tmr will be ktv with colleagues + xiao zhu concert.
Sigh. why did my life turn exciting when I am having exams?

one more week... and i will be free!

And so I met up with Senior LD again yesterday and we talked about his upcoming taiwan trip.
omgggggggg he makes me wanna buy a tix and fly there with him lOl. but due to work and my EXAMS (damn!), I cannot just throw everything here and fly over.

sigh. the responsibilities of an adult ;P

PI LAR. if i have the money i'll fly over right after my last paper lor.
screw the responsibilities HAHAAHHAA.
but since aku is a poor girl, I shall concentrate on saving up for my sch fees and the dec tw trip with mochi :D

alright. i shall stop dreaming and think of how i want to start my revision *headache*
this coming week is gonna be busy, with bro's graduation ceremony + mom's bday celebration on tue, a play on wed, the deadly FA paper on Friday and XIAO ZHU's (!) concert on Sat :)

It beats me why I can still commit to a play AND a concert when I have 3 deadly papers haunting me.

oh well.

oh and I really feel like getting an iphone yo.
not cos the rest of the world has it, but cos of its convenience and the luxury of lying on bed AND surfing the net at the same time = shioks to the max.
been doing that on my itouch recently and argh it makes me itch more to get the iphoneeeeeeeee.


$$$$$. why doesnt it fall from the sky?

Yesterday night definitely goes down the history of unforgettable nights in pH's life.
HAHA.

Sales dinner.
Alcohol.
red eyes and red + hot faces.
champagne.
white wine.
red wine.
v.v.v.v. nice beeeeer.
nice dessert but was too giddy to really enjoy it.
full to the brim.
chio bus.
shuai ges.
lots and lots of laughter.
the surprise award.
vomit (not mine!)
giddy-ness (lots of it!)
random smses and calls to my friends at 1am in the morning (omg i am soooo sorry if u are one of them who kena-ed from me!!!)

in a nutshell, a fun-filled night (:

We actually left the place at 1130pm, when all of us were still in control of ourselves, just very very high. Then someone (i forgot who) suggested going back for more (free) drinks when none of us could get a cab. AND WE DID!! omg. hahhaha. it was crazY~

Am really thankful for this bunch of colleagues.
Despite some of us throwing up and drunk, we stood by one another through it all :))
Specially thanks to Maggie for being the only one who was 100% sober and taking care of our belongings/ making sure all our stuffs are together and mking sure we are okay. hahahha.
WHO SAYS RADIO AD ADMIN DOESN'T HAVE TEAMWORK YO?
THAT, is true teamwork (though maggie is not with RAA anymore la hahahhahaa)

To clarify, aku wasnt drunk ok hahhahaha. just very giddy and EXTREMELY GIDDY.
and this is going out to the staff at Regent Hotel as well as these 2 other colleagues who dont know us AT ALL and yet accompanied us right to the end - My deepest appreciation for all that you have done for us :)
Oh and to my lil bro too :)

you people make this world a better place!


p.s: no more alcohol for the next 1 yr :D

i miss the old ph

firstly, you told me that you have something to say and is feeling vexed (??) about something.
So i asked, "what? is everything ok?"
then you said that you didnt know if you should say.
Follow by, you think you should keep it within you for now cos you need to think somemore about this and will tell me when it is time.
THEN, I told you that I was going to kill you cos u're basically making my heart itchy cos ph the kpo wants to know what happened!!!!

AND you said that you're afraid I cant take the news.
So i told you, suan le, just dont say anymore, i dont wanna know cos it seems like bad news and it will AFFECT MEEEEEE AND MY MOOD.

And so you called me and tell me not to think too much, saying that the "news" has nothing to do with me, and I dont have to worry about it.

OKAYYYYYYY.
So tell me, what should I do next?

Murder seems like a good option (:

dead tired. but fun-filled night.
I miss this kind of laughter with my sec sch mates.. been a long time since we do this kinda crazy stuffs.

From resa's wrkplace to mine to katong to parkway to marina barrage to simpang bedok to home.
The mirror incident, the car incident, the parking-the-car jokes (:

MORE FUN TOMORROW :D

The date of THE first paper is drawing nearer.
and i havent done anything yet -.-
no motivation yo. All i did is work and then go out every day. hahhaha.

Procrastination rocks but it is gonna cost me $3k to procrastinate -_-
Roar.
