Where to Go?
She's fussing over where to club it this Friday. She's checking out what's happening that night. Pump Room's top in the list as it's her new favourite joint (awesome spin, awesome live band. Most importantly free entry) and the wheat ale they serve is pretty nice. Doesn't mind a few sips of that... and she knows she's gonna have real REAL fun over there. Good time guaranteed.A friend suggested karaoke which she thinks ok, why not try a new thing. Another suggested St James. Never really liked that joint.Found out DXO's got free flow for ladies... tempting. Never venture there before. Is it good? She wished Kenneth's here in Sg. She misses him. Where to go!? Where to go!?
Phuture? Way freakin' packed. So is Smoove. Bleh. God help her.

Well, Timbo, Justin & Nelly say Give it to Me
2 more days and it's her birthday! Woo hoo! Nothing's gonna stop her to club it hard that night. Yes....the Good Time Girl is back. She wants to unwind and kick it. She yearns for it. She needs it. So peeps... join her at *venue-haven't been-decided-yet*, *time-haven't-been-decided-yet-too* on June 29th. She'll mass-text.
If you see us in the club, we'll be acting real nice
If you see us on the floor, you'll be watching all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody
So give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
Wanna see you work your body
So give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
Business hasn't been fantastic despite the ongoing GSS and the management's coming down hard on the store managers so they come up with a stupid penalty; report to the headquarters at 8.00 am if target's not met. Bleh... therefore most store managers are, like, sleep-deprived and shit tired. Yours truly is no exception. Been summoned everyday... ha ha... shit. Coffee with that sick sick man every morning.Lovely. *Gag* Not that she's lousy or anything, the target's crap and they know it. In fact, the ones being summoned are always the same peeps. Sigh. Not a bad thing, really. Bonding and bitching session over brekkie after the screw-left-right-and-centre session. Nice.

Underneath All That, She's Just Another Fragile Wandering Soul
"Those who will rebuild you are coming soon, and those who destroyed you will leave" ISAIAH 49:17
Caution: Erratic entry
Her gut feelings turned out to be spot on. Those strange words that whispered to her ear of late were of Father in Heaven. Yet she was caught unguarded. She's feeling things she was not suppose to feel. It shook her, surprisingly, to the core. Those feelings were so familiar yet so alien to her. She, again, fell into that abyss she's been carefully avoided. Beleaguered, she could not comprehend it. She could not understand why was she feeling so deeply this time. She somewhat saw it coming. She knew it, God was telling her. But why was she hurting so much? Why did it move her so violently this time?
Why must I be the one getting hurt in the end? That's a question she's been bothered with for a very long time. What has she done in her past and present life that karma is hitting her this way?
She was very sure that she didn't harbour deep feelings for the involved then.
Was it the familiarity and the nature of the situation that brought her to this state?
She failed to keep the promises she made to herself. She would not lose a wink of sleep. She would not shed a tear. She was very disappointed with herself for being fooled and crushed by a mere man.
She now realised she was being careless so now she's paying a price for it. There's nothing left for her to figure out. What she has discovered scares the wit out of her. She's asking herself if that is what her heart had wanted but was too pussy to say it out? Should she salvage it or should she leave it to God's will? What comes around comes around, is it not?
Never matter, she knows she'll be fine in time to come. Time will efface those words spoken. Gone will be those memories. They always say, "She's going to be fine, she's a tough one after all".
Fuck, she being tough and all does not mean you can dump things on her to fuck clear your fucking conscience and for you to be able to sleep soundly at night. The selfishness of humankind. The things said and done were not right but it's ok for she knows the one with huge loss is not her. She knows her worth. There is no one like her despite what's been said. She's perfect in her own way. She's in a league of her own.

Demystification of the Good Time Girl
Procrastination is her major.
Mom: Your contract's ending in two months. What are your plans?
Rae: I have no idea. I wanna go home first. Bum around town, idle away at the beach with Milo, vege out in front of the telly, party til wee hours with sis....
Mom: Daughter, get your act together. You better have some plans, dad isn't happy.
Rae: ... ohr...
Where's my mom's sense of humor gone? Argh... the pressure. My ideal plan was to party til I drop and not worry about tomorrow but hey the world doesn't work the Rae way so there. *Gripe*
Apart from that... Rae is curently down with tonsillitus, laced with slight fever. That hot doctor gave her 2 days off *yeah yippie* but don't think it's enough. The antibiotics' making her woozy and groggy and bloating and stuff. Bleh. She better get well by next week. PARTAY!
On the other hand, she's certainly not impressed with this chap. Freakin' fishy and stuff. Been hearing stuff she should not. She feels a bit betrayed and somewhat used. Most beh-kam-muan, she feels like the 1st-runner-up. Nabeh. This guy's gonna get it. Don't freaking mess with Rae.
Rae's cell isn't working whole day without she knowing it. No wonder there isn't a single text or call... Good. Been trying to dodge this 21-yr-old-player-wannabe. Ish. Why is her life surrounded by dodgy guys? Guess she'll be single for a while.

Visualising Rae's DNA
Stayed in and had nothing to do online, no friends to chat with (cos it's 3 in the morn) so there... ain't too sure if it's accurate... a thriller? More like an escape artist. Undefined for my love habit? That can't be true. Oh whatever.

Come into Rae's Planet & Get Lost in It
Headaches, dark circles, eyebags and bloodshot eyes are her new best friends of late. Definitely overworked and overplayed. Did things she shouldn't and didn't do things she should. But at least she settled an issue that has been bugging her for the past month. Ah... life.
Last Wednesday was a total contrast of last Friday.
Barfly on Wed: Hot red shirt and awfully tight jeans (argh... gotta run more!) plus stilettoes with matching red nails. Come-Kiss-Me red lippie.
Jordan on Fri: Mickey Mouse polo shirt and that awful pair of pants (work uniform. That's the 1st thing I'll burn when I leave the company) with hot pink Hello Kitty slippers. No lipstick.
Jordan's probably the sleaziest and the dodgiest bar in Singapore but when you're with the right crowd on the right time and the right music, it'd be the next zouk. Heck I had real fun (with my last ounce of energy anyway). Bonded with the logistics peeps over brekkie after sales meeting and got invited to their usual joint after work. The logistics peeps are good despite being different from the peeps I usually hang out with. They even gave me a ride to work with that big-ass cargo truck. Not an everyday thing to get a ride on that!
Boy: Rae, how come you can't dance? Can you dance like a girl or not?
Rae: Huh? What do you mean?
Boy: You dance like a man ar... dance like her *point to that chick with skimpiest get-up* and move your butt like that can? Keras sial (that's you're damn stiff; refering to the hip).
Rae: LOL
It's pretty hilarious to be told for the 1st time that you are the lousiest dancer on the dancefloor when you know you are a damn good one...
Am contemplating to venture there again. Change of scene is a good thing... haha even tricked someone into it! Hah! Get ready!
The night ain't complete without dodgy photos! Whoa... I looked pissed drunk and tired. I wasn't even drunk.... had very thin bourbons....
OoOooOOoooo... received a snail mail today.....
Isn't it nice and thoughtful of them to send me a birthday card! Hah! Someone's birthday is coming... 25 days from today to be exact. Ha ha... and she's probably gonna club it and coughdoasickiethedayaftercough!
She even bought herself an early birthday present already. See below.
Now... about that personalised (PRODUCT) RED special edition nano with laser engraving and that Air Vomero+ 2 or that Air Structure Triax+ 10 size 38... would anyone buy for me? Anyone?
ps - Hate Sean Paul with a huge passion but Pretty Ricky featuring him's Push It Baby isn't bad at all. Not bad... not bad at all.
