Ah, there was so much to post that I completely forgot to post this. Anyway, Samuel and I have started doing duet together. Nowadays I keep telling him to find a new partner, but I don't think he's listening...Even though I'm hoping he doesn't, perhaps it's better, you know?? For the partnership. At least, for him. Since I suck like crazy. Anyway, this was the first, and so far only, song we;ve managed to complete. Hope everyone like A River Flows In You by Yiruma.
Also, Sam's decided to arrange one of my self-composed pieces from solo to duet so that we can perform it. He considers it boring, but his sister May decided to post it up on Youtube as a tribute to me. Sort of seems like I died.....But anyway, I figured it's high time the readers of this blog heard the full version of Monochrome Memories. Enjoy!
Yeah, I know about the name. It's an old family nickname. So happens I'm introduced to everyone at Expression Music School by that name. And that includes Samuel. And because of that, I'm introduced to his family by that name too...Ah...

Of piano duets and self compositions
Posted by Siang Wen at 4:43 PM 0 comments
Of....everything that's been happening over the past few months...
So much has been happening that I didn't even manage to blog about it. Ah, exams......anyways, don't be surprised when I say, months back, because really, I haven't been blogging much for the past few months have I?? Anyway, MONTHS BACK, my mom's company celebrated the hungry ghost festival. Yes, this is how deprived my blog is. The usual stuff I guess. Hours spent burning paper, then spend the night eating and getting drunk. And even though I'm underage, I've been drinking beer too! Haha, I don't get to drink this.
Or this.
At least, not yet XP This is why toothpicks shouldn't be handed around when the adults are drunk and the children, sugar-rushing.
My class had to say goodbye to a beloved English teacher Whom we have cherished since........I don't really know. But screw that. Point is we love her. We loved her so much, we went out to buy her stuff.
No, not a box and half-used stickers!
A necklace and ear-rings! 'Coz she loves ear-rings! (coughcoughirememberedcoughcough) Ain't it pwetty!??
We even gave her a letter!
Mrs. Sharon, thanks and good-bye.
I like my piano teacher.
Why? Well, those are reasons personal to me, but I can say this, Lily Chiam is AWESOME!!!! Go, google her, and you'll know why. But anyways, she's really nice. I managed to get a credit for my exam (miraculously) so she decided to treat me.Half-eaten by the time I remembered to take a picture. ^^v
The moon-cake festival came around. There was a function at Chung Hwa Middle School celebrating it. With a big statue of Chang Er. For those who are unfamiliar with the legend, click here.
October is one heck of a month. Natasha's birthday party for one. Then exams. Competitions. Exams. Exams. Exams. Did I say exams? Exams. You get the idea.Natasha's 15th birthday cake. UBER huge if you think about the amount of fruit they manages to cram on it's surface. Along with the chocolate slab.
Birthday girl Natasha and soon-to-be birthday girl Venus!! I went over early to help out with the preparations (cough, coughmakingsushiwithwasabistuffedinthemcough, cough).
It rained that day so some of us were escorting guests around with umbrellas. It looks like I'm dating a girl here.
After eating, we played Truth or Dare XTREME! Then, it was cake. That ginormous one you saw up top. Then, it was the water fight. There were balloons thrown everywhere, water guns blazing, a hose and ice water was being spritzed at everyone it could reach. MATRIX ACTION!
Group photo of drenched guests.
After that, it was back to study.
Not only for school, but for my Grade 4 theory exam. Loads of afternoons of brain-cracking theory, verbal debates with Samuel, music playing everywhere and past-year paper answers being compared with bated breath. Loads of laughs. COOKIE!Of course, after the exam, everything picked up. And sped up. And went wild. Like stampeding bulls. There was the Primary 1-6 year 2001-2006 reunion at Royal Brunei Catering. Not many people showed up, but it was good to meet up with old friends.
And surprise everyone by wearing a skirt. Geoffrey looks really good now. Heck, Weng Kit looks WAY better than when I last saw him. Must be puberty. I'm still a dork.
Not much change there. Rifae'e's parents surprised him with a birthday cake then.
Happy Birthday Rifae'e! (belated). Hong Yi brought some friends so it was cool to meet them too.Attempt at being Superman. Failed. Underwear on the outside just isn't 'in' anymore. There was the Expression Rock Concert that my brother performed in. I helped out! Along with Sam. I went late, so I only helped a bit backstage when Teacher Lily called Samuel and I to the counter to help her out.
Dress code, black. The lady in white was gonna leave early so it didn't matter with her. Ko-ko performing!He was doing Last Resort by Papa Roach. They obviously couldn't do the vocals due to cencorship, so they filled in with a violinist. There was a guy called Calvin, who composed his own songs and performed them.
Group photo!
Evryone wanted to be cool and stand up. But the thing is, the only way to make yourself seen, is to get in front of everybody. Exactly what my brother did.
There's practically nothing to do in class after the exams. There's so much free time, you'd probably spend most of it thinking of what to do next. From posing,
to making card houses taller than you.Luckily, to fill up most of our free time, our class had to participate in the school's Talentime competition organised by the English department. The class performed Words by The Bee Gees (sp?) Natasha and I didn't take part. Boys' final rehearsal.
Girls watching.
Class monitor Fatin!
Class photo!
The MP/PRS had some free time too. Enough to make a fairy king.The band was particularly busy last month. We had to perform at the International Convention Centre. In front of the Sultan!! -gasp-
I only attended a day of practice. XP
No, I was not slacking off. I was conserving my energy. We get to wear blazers on the real day!
Again, conserving energy. Final rush.
My dad had to fetch me back when I stayed back at school once. We went to the airport and tried out a restaurant there. Delifrance. My dad ordered their special.It came small. I mean, that's a teaspoon next to it! You can guess wht I ordered.
Earl Grey Tea. ^_^ The hamburgers there were HUGE! I ate that, along with some soup. I think I called for onion soup. I don't know, I don't spend all my time snapping pictures of the food I eat. Pepper shaker has a 'P' on it!
Salt shaker has a squiggly shape on it!
I came across this at a department store.
Aren't they cute!?
The school even managed to organise a trip to the Ministry of Health Promotion Centre for some of the classes! Brush, and some day, you may have teeth, as big as mine.
Another group photo!
The last topic of my post, is the MS Anime Funfair. Loyal readers can guess what I went as.
My official job was as a waitress. Besides waitressing, and, according to some, attracting potential customers with cuteness (coughguyscough), I did advertising! With cookies!
Free cookies! Hazman freaked when he saw me doing it. Rather, heard me doing it.
Maid Siang Wen: (high pitch, feminine voice) Excuse me, would you like a free cookie?
Normal Siang Wen: (low, alto, boy-ish voice) We have to complete the proposal by TODAY! Where is the material I told you to get? And you! Why didn't you call the ministry!?
According to Hazman when the funfair was over and we still had proposal deadlines to meet, "I want the maid back."
Group photo of most of the cosplayers!
Point!!
Full body picture!
Ah, finally, the readers can see the costume in good lighting with a better camera.

Of apologies, funny conversations and personal viewpoints
First off, to all loyal readers, I apologize for the late beyond all reason update. I'll try to update more now. Yesterday in the counseling room, Natasha and I had a short debate.
Siang Wen: Is there something wrong with a girl who has commitment problems?! Huh!? Huh!?
Natasha: YES!
No, there isn't damnit! The world just needs to realize that some girls do not like the word commitment. Get used to it! It's not just guys who don't like commitment. Heck, I think guys have less commitment problems than girls, just girls complain so much about a guy that doesn't commit that we stereotype guys as non-committal and girls who complain about themselves being non-committal are actually committal. So there.

Of weird conversations
For once, I'm blogging regularly. Too much in the holiday mood, even though I know it's like, 2+ weeks away. Just now, my little brother came up to me...
Jun Jun: Jie, I had a dream about pokemon!
Calitntz: Please tell me it's not like Ko-ko's dream where pokemon are real.
Jun Jun: It is. Except in my dream, it's not about pokemon trainers, it's about pokemon rangers.
Calintz: -sigh-
Pokemon is making a comeback on the world. We're doomed man. Soon, one of my brothers is gonna dream 'bout digimon. Then, we're goners yo.
In KK, while in Kenny Rogers...
Mr. Chiam: Evan has a bad all to himself. It's very white. And very deep.
In KK, on the way back to Novotel...
Calintz: It's okay Auntie Anna, I can sleep in the tub!
The next morning, in the room...
Auntie Anna: Calintz, you really gave me a fright last night!
Calitnz: Why? What happened?
Auntie Anna: You don't remember!? You were talking in your sleep!
Calintz: Huh!?
Teacher Syn Nee: Yeah, I think I heard her too.
Auntie Anna: First I heard you around midnight. You were mumbling about something in English. It was a very short sentence, but very clear. I forgot what it was. I told myself, okay Anna, just go back to sleep, it's fine. Then, 1 hour later, you sat up and said the same thing again, then went back to sleep. I was so scared! Luckily you didn't go and open the door. I saw before on TV that some people would go and open the window and try to jump out.
Teacher Syn Nee: Owh yeah, that was lucky.
Calitnz: That's weird, I don't remember dreaming last night.
Auntie Anna: I was so scared you know! Has it ever happened to you?
Calintz: I don't think so. I think it's the first time.
Teacher Syn Nee: Do you sleep with someone else?
Calintz: No, I sleep alone.
Teacher Syn Nee: Then you don't know if it's the first time do you?
Auntie Anna: Has this sort of thing ever happened to you?
Teacher Syn Nee: No, but I think it will be interesting.
Auntie Anna: Interesting!? Wait till you sleep next to her then you'll know what's interesting! I was so scared!
It was later assumed (confirmed) that the word tub was mentioned while I was sleep-talking.
Auntie Anna: Wow Calintz, you really wanted to sleep in the tub is it!?
Ahh...

Of little brother's bdays, best friend, PRS work, oral exams, hospitals, armed forces exhibitions, fooling around in class and trips to KK
Over a month ago, my little brother's bday came around. -blink, blink- Does that even make sense? Ah, I'm typing on a low amount of energy so I think my brain is refusing to work. Anyway, we went to Savy's Brassiere. Again. I had Earl Grey Tea! ^_^The lighting. It's so....dim....I sort of ruined my tea by chucking in sugar and cream.
But then, nevermind, I got refills! ^_^
Oh dear, I've been hanging out with Natasha too much. I'm being hyper when I'm tired. Jun Jun's cake!
Jun Jun with cake!
I know it's late, but I'm sure you all know I hardly update.
Last month, my best friend's b'day came around too! So we threw her a surprise party. Unfortunately, we throw so many surprise parties, they're sorta expected. Eheh...We decorated the knife!
But it was ice-cream cake so Natasha had to bring in this other deadly looking knife to slice it up.
Group photo!
Jane-chan and I!
I keep thinking I look.......undeniably fat.......OMG KENNY SIA I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL!
The PRS in my school had this charity activity where we give second-hand toys to the children stuck in RIPAS. We decided that we should clean them, wrap them and present them hamper style. The thing is, when you're stuck all day long cleaning and wrapping someone elses old toys, you start going a little crazy.To the point where you pick up a pink parasol and start twirling it around indoors because it's fun to do. Poor Natasha, she's been working too hard.
The thing about skipping a grade is, you get to go through the pains of major exams earlier than your friends so that when it's your turn, you get to sit back and watch them go through the pains of major exams.The pains of oral exams is one of them. Above: Karen and Kim Hui preparing for malay orals. That's most of my ex-class in the picture.
A few weeks ago, I got a major tummy-ache in class and requested to go home early. My dad decided that he should send me to the hospital just in case it's something big. When I'm there, they asked for a urine sample. After giving them the sample, they made my dad and I wait. And wait. And wait. And people who know me well know that I'm not a very patient person. Anyway, after some time, they get me to get onto a trolley where we wait. And wait. And wait. And a nurse comes in to take a sample of my blood, and to stick some meds into me. Instant drowsiness. My dad leaves and I seriously sturggled to stay awake. But the thing about meds is, it's like, breathing. It doesn't work like a full blow, it's slow, and you don't notice it. Next thing I knew I was regaining consciousness on the bed. Did I mention that there was an IV stuck to my hand?It was there since the meds were injected into me. It's not fun having that thing stuck into you. And it's definitely not fun to have that thing pulled out. No matter how those people do it on TV, pulling it out and running straightaway, believe me, it's not possible. You bleed instantaneously and if you don't start applying pressure, you're dead sooner or later. They don't apply pressure on TV!
Anyway, there was this armed forces exhibition a few weeks ago. I didn't go but I heard it was really good. My bro, my mom and my little bro went.Yes, it must have been fun.
A class is a place where memories are made. You could have angry memories from bullying. Sad memories from failing tests. Happy memories from confessions at sunset (anime lover in me XP). Sweet memories from love notes (making it up as I go along). And then there are times when you just go plain crazy.Like in physics class when all the formulae have mushed up your brains. You might even have fun memories while waiting for class to start.
Hint: Above picture has something to do with the Japanese game, 'Daruma-san ga koronda'. Translation: The daruma doll fell off the table.
Last Saturday, I went to KK for a music competition, participating in Jazz Grade 5 for piano, Romantic Grade 5 for piano and Baroque Grade 5 for piano. I shared a room with Tiara and Yani so what we did was we moved the 2 single beds together to make 1 big one.
And rearaged the furniture a bit to make it seem more like a real room.
My piano teacher, Lily Chiam, went there with her family. Her children are all child prodigies so trying to beat them would be tough. Here's Evan with his violin.
Isn't he cute!? The piano in room 7 with bright light shining on it from outside.
Dramatic. Room 7's piano is the only grand piano that will be used for the competition. I'm so happy I got to use it. Congrats to Chiam Shian Li who got 8 gold medals and 1 silver medal during the competition! After the competition, Tiara and I had to check into Novotel with Auntie Anna and Teacher Syn Nee. Upon entering, the first thing that cought my eye was this.
A giant, neon board. I don't really see much point in it. If you look to your left and right, you will see giant pillars with slots in them for plants.
And to your left, is the lounge.
And because I'm so jobless, the centrepiece of the tables in the lounge.
I'm starting to get tired of fake flowers. The floor above is a bar.
In fact, the lounge is a cafe.
I wonder if the staff speak french.
I'm sure those of us who have been to Sutera Harbour Hotel know about the wall with the window in it that gives us a view of whoever is doing their business in the bathroom. This window can be closed by a good, OPAQUE wood shutter. At Novotel however...
That thing is GLASS! A BIG sheet of TRANSPARENT glass! Luckily there's a blind behind that thing otherwise I might be spending the next day smelling like crap and needing to let crap go. Part of the room's mini bar!
The other part of the room's minibar!
The fridge is empty. Hold on, what's that? A DVD player.
I really wonder what happens if somebody steals it. For weight conscious guests.
A gentle reminder to watch your calories. The TV is set in a rather interesting frame.
Who wouldn't want to see their faces next to the movie stars that they love? We had a queen size when we entered the room so we called in for the extra bed.
Tiara gets to sleep in it. I'm sharing with Auntie Anna and Teacher Syn Nee. Why? Well, see, when Tiara, Yani and I were sleeping in the joined beds, the end result of the night was that I got 1 entire bed to myself while Tiara and Yani shared. Yani moved alot in her sleep. So Tiara got the single.
Here's something interesting.
I wonder why it's even there. I mean, does the hotel architect expect the guests to throw themselves against the wall or something? Seems sort of pointless. Teacher Syn Nee looks like a model.
I think the white bed fits her. She was in a good pose before that but I was too late. -cries- I really wouldn't mind having a room that looks like this.
Loads of white light streaming in. Just the view needs to be more land and less building. XP We had some trouble getting into the room at first. See, we're sort of used to the locks where you slot your card in to unlock it. This one is a sensor.
I don't know why everyone laughed when I told them I would have to take a picture of it. Heck, they laughed when I really did. I guess they didn't think I could be that jobless. We overslept the next day so I ended up not eating breakfast. Atended a master class with Tiara, Shian Li and Claire. After that, ate a late lunch with Teacher Lily, Evan, Eden, Shian Li, Auntie Anna and Teacher Syn Nee at New York New York. We had to rush to the airport then and I almost threw up. -sigh- Apparently, at 4.30 in the afternoon, KK is prone to traffic jams so the taxi driver was driving like mad. At the airport, something caught my eye.
Right in the very middle of the picture, you can see a dark blotch that looks like a cloud. It's hard to see but I think it's Mount Kinabalu. If anyone knows whether or not it's possible to see it from the airport, please tell me because I would really like to know. Friends of mine know that I have memories up there. Anyway, after that it was the short walk to the the gate, to the waiting area, to the plane. And then here I am back in Brunei.
I don't mind coming back here again. More details and funny conversations in the next post!

Of conversations
Onday, I'm gonna properly update this blog. That day is not today. Why? 'Coz I'm too damn lazy. I gotta study later anyway. -sigh- Finally, study time. Anyway, today has been filled with conversations after conversations. A few of the most notable ones:
Calintz: -Attempting Nocturne Opus 9 No. 2 on piano by Chopin-
Ko-ko: That song sounds familiar...
Jun Jun: Yeah, it's Nocturne, -turns to Calintz- You can't even play Nocturne that good?
Calintz: Are you questioning me? (Jun Jun can't play either)
Jun Jun: .........What's the capital of Ukraine? (The boy is awesome in Geography)
Calintz: .............

Of old team jersey and logo drafts, leadership courses, Father's Day, trips to Miri, swimming competitions, Japanese curry, piano rivals, papayas...
Okay, I know I promised a mega-post. So I racked my brains. What can I post about that I can keep going on and on and on about? So I decided, okay, let's go through the pictures I managed to collect over the last few months. Sooner or later, there's bound to be something to post about. Right?
I found this.A picture of a picture that my friend drew and that I took a picture. I wanted to photoshop it, but, never really got around to doing it. XP Next, I found...
The old draft of the Phoenix Team jersey! I believe I showed you guys the photo edited version. After this, obviously, is...
the old draft of the other side of the Phoenix Team jersey! After that, it's...
The official Phoenix Team logo! I'm sure you guys have seen the photo-editted version of this one too. It's funny. Before this, the logo used to look like this.
But we received a comment saying that it looked like a sparrow so.....too bad. Oh yeah, I said that that was the old draft of the jersey right? This is a newer draft of the jersey.
Planning: Natasha, Aminul, Adi, Rahman, Siew Hui, Calintz. Done with loads of laughter, arrogance, quick-witted jokes, a guitar, a trip to a departmental store, roti canai, juice and Twilight.
I think I remember talking about a leadership course not too long ago. I don't remember posting about it though. Hmm. Ah yes, I remember talking about how we went to OGDC (Oil and Gas Discovery Centre). So I took some pictures there too. This is why Calintz should never take too much sugar.She goes running around taking candid shots without a care in the world. From left to right: Natasha, Sofian. Taken: During lunch.
From left to right: Chong Nam, Chris, Wea Hean. Taken: During lunch. The exhibits there are really cool.
Head on a plate! NOOO WEA HEAN! YOU CAN'T DIE YET! YOU MUST PLAY BASKETBALL! They have this bottomless elevator.
The entire effect was ruined by Wea Hean and Chong Nam. Coz if you look at the bottom of the elevator thingie, it actually looks, well, bottomless. But the boys just looked too non-plussed about it so in the end, it just looks like a normal elevator.
From left to right: Sadeq and Hazman. Taken: Before breakfast. There's even this optical illusion of a staircase.
It's rather cool. It looks like there's a staircase there. Subject of picture: Yap. And, the afro.
Though, I'm not too sure if this one was particularly good. Subject of picture: unknown. He was there, I took the picture. If anyone does know though, please tell me. Thank you. We had quite a lot of fun there. We even designed a water rocket! We were divided into groups and each group was given an egg which we had to put in the pointy part of our water rocket. That egg, CANNOT crack. Even after we launch the poor thing 15 feet into the air and land it 50m from the initial starting point. Well, in the end of all that...
OUR EGG SURVIVED! Thanks to Wea Hean for the cushioning idea, the aerodynamic ideas and the extra info we needed to make the rocket FLY! All in all, an awesome day.
View of the sunset from the bus window. The trip home was UBER slow though. I don't thik we ever reached 100km/h in the bus. Some kinda rule I think.
Father's Day just went by not too long ago. We started the day at a restaurant. The scenery outside the window from my seat wasn't too bad.From left to right: My dad, my mom. Taken: During ordering time. After that we went to my cousins house to celebrate Father's Day. Upon walking in, you can see this on the wall.
My aunt took part in a singing competition not too long ago. She was actually really good! I think she made it to 4th place. Awesome right? We had cake!
Looks nice right? that's actually white chocolate not frosting. And who's the lucky dad this cake is meant for?
GRANDPA! From left to right: My dad (in blue), Renee, my aunt, Yung Chern(I think, or was it Meng Meng), Ah Tong, Rafika.
Not too long ago, my family and I went to Miri with my cousins. The trip was made in the early evening so by the time we reached there, it was way past dinner. We went to this sea-side restaurant. Steps leading to the eating area!Rocks that can be seen from the verandah of the eating area.
The verandah of the eating area.
The chair!
As if I couldn't get anymore random, the tableware!
You know, the toilets there are really something. I mean, they're really different from all the other toilets I've been to. They're so different, I just HAVE to post about it. I know, I'm starting to sound jobless to the point where I'm taking pictures inside toilets. Wait, why did that just sound so wrong? Anyway, the sinks reminded me of those sinks you find at the fish market.
Albeit a more cleaner version. If you're wondering where the tap is, if I recollect properly, it's the nozzle itself. you just twist the thing and water flows out. No, it is not seawater. I think the doors are really cool. They really fit the seaside decor thingie.
I mean, look at that wood! The ambience in that place is really nice. They have nice background music, nice atmosphere, nice lighting, my English teacher is gonna come after me for using the word nice so much.
The lanterns here are cool.
We stayed at Park City Everly. What's cool about this place it, it has a sandy strip of beach! For some unknown reason, I'm really drawn to early morning horizons.
Look, it's the restaurant we ate at last night!
Look, it's the beach of the Mariott Hotel!
Look, marks made by the high tide at night!
This is what my future piano is gonna look like. XD
May be a bit more black. And a bit more shiny. This piano can be found in the lounge of the hotel. Unfortunately, guests are not allowed to touch it. -pout-
Not too long ago, from the 3rd to 5th July, the 17th Brunei Age-Group Swimming Championship took place. It was really fun! And the sunsets from the pool entrance are really nice. Of course, with all the swimming, everyone gets relaly sleepy.
From left to right: Patricia, Bryan. Taken: Lunch time on second day. There is also the waiting time between events. Believe me, it's REALLY boring! On the third day, we were so desparate for something to do, the boys played hamburger.
From left to right: Job, Bae Wei. Taken: Afternoon of last day.
Clockwise from left: Kevin, Bae Wei, Bryan, Job, Albert. Taken: Afternoon of last day.
From left to right: Bae Wei, Bryan, Job, Albert. Taken: Afternoon of last day. Please not that Albert could be Brian, as I'm not too sure who was sitting there anymore. Patricia had a lot of solo events throughout the competition. So obviously, she has a lot of gold medals.
Here's her doing the 200m butterfly! GO PATRICIA GO! Late afternoon sky from the pool corridor.
Looks pretty right?
I think the above picture has this, 'feel' to it. In a way. I don't know. Like, still life. Like, ever try walking down a walkway at school and it's for once, not creepy? I think it happens a lot in anime.
Late afternoon sky from the entrance of the pool!
I think this is a photo of the pool at ISB. Oh well, it's a pool.
Not too long ago, my brother made dinner for the family. He introduced to us, Japanese curry!You mix it with half a plate of rice. Ingredients involve, water, curry paste, potatoes, carrots, beef and onions. There's a thing about Japanese curry. It's not spicy!
I'd like to introduce to all my readers, something that doesn't happen alot. Yes, I have found a rival. At least, someone I would like to surpass.Meet Samuel. He's what I can, a piano prodigy. You REALLY should hear him play french songs! He's really good. And, because he's so good, I have set out to surpass him. What happens after that? Well, here's where my brother's qoute comes in. "Perfect perfection" Note that perfect here, is a verb. ^_^ Yes, I know I'm overly competitive.
Ah yes, last Friday, Sofian and I went to this place that sells LOADS of flowers. I don't relaly know the exact name of it, but I hear it referred to as HBO. While we were there, we saw this UBER huge spider web!Try to find the spider! Hint: It's out in the open.
I have absolutely no idea how old this picture is.But I don't think it was that old. I didn't bother checking the date. Back when I took this, my mom was making me drink papaya soup almost every night. I almost harboured a phobia for papayas then.
I think this picture was taken during Chinese New Year.This was a private fireworks show but you could still see it from a distance off. There was not much of a need to buy loads of fireworks this year. Expecially with the free show. XD
You know how photographers always try to set a mood when they take pictures?I think the mood here, is, peaceful. This was taken in the temple in town while it was raining. It sort of reminded me of those old, extravagant Chinese style gardens with their lakes and bridges and pagodas.
I was given the task of unwrapping this hamper that one of my parents got. While doing so, I decided to have fun with the ribbons and what not.Introducing, Jun Jun! Ultraman Mode!
Introducing Jun Jun! Minnie Mouse Mode!
When I went to the mall one day, I came across this.For some unknown reason, it REALLY looks like Evelyn!
And last but not least...This was taken before I trimmed my hair. XD Ah, fun times, fun times. Yeah, I know, the title doesn't cover all the topics, but I ran out of space. Eheh.....
