This week has been a horrible one. Because I almost cried in school on friday and today really made me damn worried.
Things to worry about:
1) Frickin chinese spelling with 35 words fml. I have 3 days to learn all of them
2) Chem pop quiz (not really worried about this but still)
3) FUCKING CHOIR AUDITIONS.
I'm particularly worried about number 3. Because I just learnt on Friday that we had to memorise the score by Monday. I don't know how anyone knows it, I've never heard of this news wtf. Maybe I was daydreaming in choir or smth but I SWEAR I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT IT. GRR PANICKING NOW. Particularly because I forgot the tune and I can't play the notes on my virtual piano because I have no music background and I can't even play the chords/major.minor scales what not fuck fuck fuck.
I am in the midst of memorising it, but I'm really scared. My voice is still as horrid as ever (yes I'm serious idea why I even got into choir with my shit voice) I'm terrified of the high notes cox no matter how much i try, I just can't do it! In practices it sounds ok but if I hear myself sing it just sounds like a pig being slaughtered/a dog trying to be a cat LOL. OK NO TIME FOR JOKES. And I think it's quite ridiculous to give up on my academics just for choir. Ok I'm being like some bitch right now but it's the truth! I don't wanna fail my chinese spelling just because I was wasting time trying to memorise the stupid score.
My academic results are extremely important to me. On friday I recieved a "B" grade for my math assignment and I was bloody pissed with the math teacher. I know it's my fault for getting a B, but she only gave us one day to do the fucking assignment, ugh and her teaching sucks. Getting this B, which is the first grade i recieved this year, is just a really big blow to me. Since Math takes up about 33% of my overall grade, I'm seriously worrried cox I really don't understand what the damn teacher is talking about and she annoys the crap out of me. During Bio I was also very confused so I was just so frustrated that I almost cried in class. I cry very easily when I'm faced with too much stress *__* What is wrong with me? 2013 has been a horrendous year so far. I really hate my life. I'm terrified that I can't cope with the 8 subjects + CCA this year. Both of them are clashing and I am faced with no choice fml.
Ok bye I don't wanna continue anymore. I have been in a bad mood for the past few days (although I don't look like I am.)

I Got A Boy by SNSD - K-pop review
In case you were living in a cave, SNSD's new single "I Got A Boy" was released on 1st Jan 2013! :) Has been really long since their last comeback in Oct 2011! So I was pretty excited about it since I saw all the teasers and stuff.
To be honest, I was really confused and did not ship the song when I first heard it.
Cox I had no idea what it was talking about, there were 3 different completely tunes in the song, I don't get the meaning of the boy inside the video, I DON'T GET ANYTHING.
And then I had to watch it at least 5 times to get the song. But I still don't get the meaning of the song.
But who cares anyway I don't really get the meaning of 90% of k-pop songs, because it is supposed to be like that. You know, don't expect a meaningful song with sentimental lyrics in the k-pop world.. Nah not gonna happen. Only minority of the songs are actually meaningful.
Found the meaning of the song online:
WHAT? Still don't get it but it'd okay ^_^
I love SNSD's costumes and they look so funky and to the tomboy-ish side. Kind of reminds me of f(x), the rock/punk style.
They look at a phone. A boy just texted them
So there's this rap by Sooyoung and Yuri. "AYO GG"
I thought it was kind of redundant, but fine it's still cute. They are acting very badass and stuff lol.
And then they put on their caps and Tiffany the gangsta comes up saying
"HEEEEERE COMES TROUBLE!"
And there's this awkward "AWHHHH" -_- Sounds like the sound you give when you finish pooping WTF. Ignore me.
Why do they have to wear contacts?! I think their natural eye colour is perfect! Why do you need lenses? Sorry I just don't like them wearing lenses it makes them look weird. It made f(x) weird too.
As an honest sone for 2 years I must say that the lenses look totally unnatural on them SORRY NOT SORRY, And you know what, I absolutely can't stand seohyun wearing eye enlarging lenses which makes her look like some big eyed person .__.
My favourite dance move:
The dubstep-ish part :)
Now I'm gonna talk about their hair. Sunny and Hyoyeon caught my attention the most:
First thing when I saw Sunny's hair : TOP. I always refer TOP to the "green-haired-guy" since I can't differentiate the guys in any guy group LOL, so I immediately thought of that.
Is it just me or Sunny's hair always reminds me of someone -_- Her purple hair reminds me of xiaxue, a singaporean blogger (;
Hyoyeon's hair looks like a paddlepop posicle. LOVE. I WANT HAIR LIKE THAT.
And I must say, their teaser pictures are REALLY GOOD. All of them look really gorgeous. I also like their new concept of a wild style, something that is different from their previous comebacks! Their outfits are okay too but I don't think a normal people could pull it off - outrageous prints, crop tops, sexy outfits.
Anyway, I still super love this new song although it's a little flawed. I must say that they look is pretty and perfect as ever! Their bodies are omg *_*
My rate: 1000000000/10 (Yes this is coming from a SONE so please understand.)
Fine, my unbiased rate: 8.5/10! <3

The ultimate shopping guide for Bangkok!
Managed to move my lazy ass and start up on this post!
We went to quite a few places to shop:
1) MBK
2) Terminal 21
3) Night markets
4) Platinum Fashion Mall
5) Bonanza Mall (Opposite MBK building)
Out of all these malls, I highly recommend night markets, MBK and Bonanza Mall.
Being reallymoney concious a miserly person who cares about my money, I would go there because its clothes are nice and cheap ^_^
Gonna show you my hauls:
TERMINAL 21
For Terminal 21, I bought a sheer sleeveless top. It was my first day there so I was desperate to buy something. Bought it for $16, I thought it was ok-ily priced since Singapore's prices are about the same. I kind of regretted buying it though, cox you can get tops like these HALF THE PRICE at other places!!! However, it's a nice piece and it's very easy to match with other bottoms!
Terminal 21 is a super duper mega big shopping centre with 9 storeys. And each floor has its own theme according to their country. Eg. Japanese floor sells Jap. clothes, Rome floor sells rome stuff etc. Kind of like your typical orchard shopping centre, extremely modern. Also quite posh, with hagen daz and other posh eateries HAHA.
The best part is the toilets are also decorated according to the theme! Cool right! Actually visited some of the floors JUST to see the toilets! Great camwhoring place lol!

Gonna show you my hauls:

Every level has its own theme!
Yes, this is a japanese themed toilet.
Even the cubicles also jap. themed one.
London subway themed toilet
Cute cubicles again. *_*
I feel that the stuff at Terminal 21 is on the higher side compared to the other shopping centres. At least for me who is a typical tourist looking for cheap and good clothing. The clothes there are quite nice, but the price is quite expensive to me, be prepared to spend around $20 for MOST of the shops cox I think the clothes are shipped all they way from another country, and some of them are branded too! I saw a jap. shop selling Liz Lisa and other famous jap. brands O_O
If you are lucky you can find a store with cheap stuff lah, but quite rare if you ask me. And the cheap stuff full of 100 baht stuff are usually ugly. #justsaying. I think you are paying for the brand. If you like high quality stuff, you should go to terminal 21!
Buys:
Found in the japanese floor but doesn't look jap. O_O
MBK
MBK is also another massive shopping centre! There are many shops selling different items from food to beauty to clothing to electronics to furniture! Really a lot! I recommend you go to the directory and search for what you want, cox it's soooo big you may get lost there. I recommend you to go to the levels with many mini stalls! They don't really have any brand so it's much cheaper compared to the normal retail shops! What I recommend most are the t-shirts/tank tops! They have really cool designs that are cute, hipster-ish and also downright offensive ones -_- Actually have a lot of offensive ones lolol. One of the t-shirts has a topless girl back facing and then giving the finger -_- which really annoyed because it's so irritating and also rude. I DON'T LIKE STUFF THAT ARE IN-YOUR-FACE Y'KNOW.
Plus if you buy stuff from the mini stalls right, you can bargain :D Depending on how nice the shop keeper is. You should bargain only if you think it's overpriced, cox some owners think they can make extra cash by overcharging foreigners! But pplease ah, don't bargain if the shirt is already less than $8, very cheapskate HAHA.

Owl and 7-11 tank top for $6 each. I've a feeling I won't wear the 7-11 one cox it looks hobo-ish -_-
Pink Esprit purse (Imitation) for $24 and purple purse for $14
Time for my interesting story of my bargaining experience lai lai lai!
Initially the esprit purse was priced about $40, which is bloody expensive. I bargained like some shit and then I pretended to leave. And then the guy said he'll chrge me $24 only ^_^ YAYYY. If you wonder why it's so expensive, it's made out of real leather and ALMOST the same as the real one, except it's not truly made by esprit, well cox it's not the true brand.
NIGHT MARKETS
Night markets are pretty amazing. There is a really great variety of clothes there, their clothes are mostly priced $8 and below, super duper cheap!
Denim cropped top for $6! CAN''T YOU BELIEVE IT THIS BEAUTY IS WORTH $6 *_* I have been looking for such a top since last month!
PLATINUM FASHION MALL
Another mega large mall (again.), I was told that the shops there were supplier shops to the other stall owners so they may sell stuff at a cheaper price. Saw many thais carrying ginomous bags/luggage bags to haul stuff.
I didn't find much great buys there.. Hmm.. Not really my taste plus it was not exactly cheap, must of them were $8.. Maybe it was an unlucky day wtf. Still managed to buy some stuff.
Skirt for $8, floral shorts for $8 :)
BONANZA MALL
I SWEAR I LOVED THIS MALL THE MOST! Really.
It's kind of like a mini bugis street, quite small mall, only 3 levels. But I swear its shops are really awesome! Just look at the number of shorts I bought there lol.
Purple and yellow shorts for $8 each, high waisted shorts for $11, spiky shorts for $11
Super love them!<3 However the purple shorts and yellow shorts were bloody tight, either because I'm too fat or smth. Kind of can see the cameltoe thing except without the camel shape. T_T Plus, THAT WAS A SIZE M WTF. And I felt that my butt was gonna be exposed god damnit. Starting to doubt what is my real size lol. But I think it should go well with crop tops and bikini tops (although I don't even own one)
Random, but when is it age appropriate to own a bikini? I know people in the west start wearing bikinis when they're quite young, but as conservative Asians, if you wear bikini to beach confirm get a lot of disapproving stares. And then people will call you slutty -_- I think people in Sg only start wearing them when they are 18 wtf.
The rest of the shorts are extremely comfortable and i super love them! I finally have a pair of high waisted shorts <3 Thank god that I didn't buy the ones at cotton on which cost freaking $34.95!
In case you didn't know, let me warn you, the sizes there are EXTREMELY SMALL. Cox the people at Bangkok are super skinny! For a person like me who wears a size XS at cotton on, can't fit into an S size in F21 and wears S for practically everything, I was shattered into s million pieces after I found out that I couldn't wear an S size in Bangkok FML x 10000. My butt (or hips) is a size 34-36 so yeah.
Random pics of me wearing the hauls :)
my waist looks small here hooray ^_^
Anyway, some final words of advice:
1) Don't be afraid to bargain, cox the customer is always right! Insist if you really want it, and then pretend to walk away if they refuse. Most owners will call you back cox they don't wanna lose any customers.
2)If you aren't sure of what size to wear, feel free to approach to owners, most of them are very friendly ^_^ Some of them will even help you measure!
Omg finally I'm done I actually took a lot of effort to write this so proud of myself.
School is reopening so I won't be so active on my blog! :'(
