Golden Gate Park Rose Garden


This gif accurately describes my life right now. Since I quit my last job, I went to Gardens by the Bay two weeks ago (a week ago? idk), went for a uni admission interview last Thursday (fingers crossed!), went to my mom's office for a day to work (probably going to be working there three times a week), and spent the rest of my time surfing the internet. I don't know why I do it!! It's not helping my life at all and I'm wasting so much time on it fml. (I should stop putting things in parentheses I am probably using it wrong anyway)

I should also stop watching MTV/Channel V when they're showing Korean music videos because I ALWAYS end up following a boy band watching their videos a few times. I mean, seriously, I am 22 years old I CAN'T KEEP DOING THIS. Not only is it a matter of me being a mature grown up, it's also becoming illegal since all the upcoming boy bands are getting younger and younger lol. A lot of these boy bands have members who are born in 1997, are you kidding me. When I was 17 I was working in an ice cream shop earning $5/hr fml.

Anyway, fyi I'm not preying on any boys born in 1997 lol the two boy band members I like are born in 1992 and 1993 although I don't know why I'm clarifying myself it's not like I'm making myself look any better?! Hahaha fuck. UGH I am such a loser.

Okay yah, so anyway I mentioned going to Gardens by the Bay but why is the title 'Golden Gate Park Rose Garden'? Mostly because I'm just so goddamn lazy to take out the camera from the dry box and to plug it in to the computer to load the photos lol. When I get around to posting about Gardens by the Bay you'll realize it's about the same anyway because I went there to visit their rose exhibition haha. It's nice to reminisce anyway.

I've never uploaded these photos at all and actually, I've never finished uploading all the photos from my Cali trip last year, so I thought I should upload them on this blog because it doesn't seem like I'm deleting this blog any time soon hahaha. Although I don't know if I can remember everything from last year which is pretty sad but I guess better late than never.

We went to the Golden Gate Park while we were lost trying to find the viewing point to see the Golden Gate Bridge. I know right? The irony. Anyway, we (more like I) decided to see what was the park like and the first thing we came across was the rose garden! It was so pretty, not to mention, free (Gardens by the Bay I'm looking at you). 

It was really an eye opener, because you don't get to see roses blooming freely in Singapore. You have to pay $12 to visit an air conditioned dome to see roses that are... not blooming so well (Gardens by the Bay I'm looking at you). Haha I'm kidding.

UGH, BULLDOG!! MUCH CUTE SUCH LOVE VERY WRINKLES AM CRIES!!!!! It was the sweetest thing! Ugh, gosh, I really want an English or French bulldog, this has to happen in my lifetime.

A 4-legged bichon and a 3-legged bichon. They kinda reminded me of Cookie and made me miss her a lot at the time but now when Cookie either cruelly ignores my cries for attention or when it is her turn to whine for attention I want to punch her face! Her face is calling out for a punch!!! Lmao no I am not an animal abuser pls do not call SPCA on me. I say it with love. Like how people say they want to kill their family members. NORMAL people, not serial killers. Of course. 

Seriously, don't call the SPCA.

Segway tour! They all looked really silly on their Segways but I guess the park was too big or something, idk.

You have to pay to go into that white building so I will never know what was inside it. What can I say, we were cheap Asian tourists.

Those kids were rolling down the hill and it looked so fun! Very "look at this completely idealistic imagery that Asians have of what life in USA is like thanks to films and tv!". Did that sentence make sense, idk, the volume of the tv outside is too loud and is making me lose my concentration.

Probably will never see children rolling down hills in Singapore with childish joy and abandon because all the small hills I can think of lead to a gravel road. Or a hard pavement. Anyway, I say it looks fun but really what I mean is no thank you.

A photo of a big fountain because it is big.

 More big fountain for you?

Something grand looking. I forgot what this was and why I took a photo of it.

Oh my god I just read the entire post and I sound insane. This is what lack of human interaction does to you I suppose.

Do You Want To Build A Snowman

(I don't have a ELSA/ANNA INSPIRED MAKEUP LOOK so here, have a stock photo)

I finally watched Frozen (I know right, ABOUT DAMN TIME. Let It Go has been played ALL OVER and I really didn't get the hype. I still don't actually, I prefer Do You Want to Build a Snowman LOL) and I am feeling such joy in my heart!! It's the magic of Disney, I swear. Even though Disney happy endings are really just pipe dreams but they're really one of the best kinds of escapism. I remember on both times I visited Disneyland in LA it felt so magical and wonderful. I actually visited the park thrice but the first was when I was really young so I don't remember a thing about it.

I teared the first time I watch the World of Colour water show in the park lmao I was just so touched by it all. It was like oh my god I'm *here*. Lolol I'm being so dramatic but I can't help it, IT'S THE DISNEY MAGIC!

 

I always embed this video when I talk about the water show, I really have to download it in case it ever gets taken down hahaha. 

Anyway, I really liked the ending of Frozen. I'm glad it wasn't the typical true loves kiss will save the day ending even if I really was expecting it the whole time. Olaf and Sven are soooo cute! The guy characters are meh whatever nothing will top classic Disney princes (and Flynn Rider).

OMG I am such a geek I need to stop, yes ok bye I just wanted to proclaim my love for Disney. JILL I know you're going to ask me to calm my tits but NO!!! THESE TITS WILL NOT BE CALM FOR DISNEY.

Playing Hooky

Holla at me bitches! (am I using it right? no?) It's about time I updated, because Jillian reminded me last night that I will always have one faithful reader, therefore I must fulfill my duty to her by posting some stuff here hahaha.

I skipped work yesterday because everyone at work is full of shit and I hate them all. Instead of spending 9 hours at my cubicle, I decided to spend an amazing Friday with Keith just dicking around. We had Korean BBQ for lunch, spent two hours at Kinokuniya book shopping, paid a visit to my current favourite place in Singapore other than my bedroom to take pretentious photos and OOTDs, and had a nice dinner before I headed home. It was an A+ day, 10/10 would recommend.

There's just something about going out on a Friday that makes everything feel so leisurely and carefree. First off, it's a weekday so it isn't crowded anywhere. Walking from ION to Takashimaya was a breeze because it was so empty. Secondly, you don't have to worry about going to work to next day because the next day is a Saturday! Unless you work in retail then I'm sorry and I feel for you because, been there done that.

This photo was calling out for a good ol' B&W treatment to add on to its pretentiousness amirite

"You look like you're about to take a dump."

Here, folks, is a prime example of why I cannot be a fashion blogger. Because I am painfully awkward and have been blessed with a severe inability to control my limbs and facial features. In this photo I was trying to emulate the "casually posing while walking" pose but it obviously failed because: 1., I look like I'm having a conversation with my imaginary friend or smiling at an invisible person aka crazy lady don't look her in the eyes!!! 2., When fashion bloggers do this they actually look like they are walking somewhere, perhaps towards their seat during fashion week, or going to the most fashionable brunch place, etc. I look like I'm about to walk into the wall, and of course, smiling at my imaginary friend lovingly while I do so. Yeah.


It will be a painful, excruciating, and torturous wait till 19th March, Wednesday, 6.30PM aka my last day of work!!!!!!! I hope it comes quick and goes by without a hitch.
