DYT this is for you~

For reasons I cannot fathom, today has left me with yet another cause to go the next dyt event. Though the weather today has been rather strict and unforgiving, it never stopped me from doing what I want to do. The sun – I’ll call it that giant merciless ball of heat, never gives up. But still I made that endless trip all the way to Pasir Ris despite the sweltering heat, the sticky faces and the non-stop water gulping.

Downtown east brings back lots of happy memories and being there fills you with warm, kiddy smiles. I made it to the front of the stage and waved to anollec and Rina. Shevonne and I sat down beside them and had our small talks that lasted all the way until dyt arrived.  Every time dyt arrives, I feel my knees go weak. Seeing him from a distance was already enough to make my toes feel like they were being roasted, and I do believe that everyone else feels the same way, judging from all the girly squeals and mad hopping about. 

The atmosphere was really contagious. People started piling in the moment they saw dyt on stage. His star presence was so strong and everybody was just completely starstruck. Did I mention how smoking he looked? Joanne and I got the chance to go up on stage to play games with dyt and it was absolutely fun. When I talked to dyt I was completely mesmerized. Standing beside him made me feel tiny and intimidated but I couldn’t stop smiling as I went through the whole game. 

The people from the fan club shouted “Jia you” at the foot of the stage and made my stomach feel all warm inside. This got me a profresh shirt, a notebook and three profresh boxes. Thank you, dyt. The whole event ended off at about eight with autographs and the usual photos but nonetheless I still went home wanting more. All the time.

Sharm's story book~

I've been writing some stories on fiction press recently and I've decided to write a new story called Lost. 
Here's chapter 1!
Enjoy! (:

Lost

Chapter 1
~Night torture
I was panting heavily. Beads of cold, cruel sweat slithered slowly down my shivering face. My eyes were shut tightly and my blonde hair was scarily disheveled. I was wetting and destroying my smooth silk pillow with my icy, sweat drenched face as I tossed and turned while grabbing the sides of the new, fresh smelling bed.

It woke me – the nightmare that never ended. It was the same nightmare that I had every night since my brother Jeremy disappeared. Every night I had ten minutes of torture. Every night I saw my brother's hands being tied up by a thick and coarse rope and his skin peeling into bits, revealing layer after layer of it. Every night I felt pain.

I breathed uncontrollable heavy breaths and glanced around the room. The bed that stood silently behind the room divider was empty and neat, not used and free of its owner. Like me, it longed for attention again. I stared at my brother's bed quite a bit and pondered about what happened.

I got down from my crumpled grey bed and pulled the pink velvet curtains open slowly. A soft, dim light ray from the grey dusty street lamp that hovered just above my house crept through the frosted windows and entered my ill-lighted room. I looked out at the lifeless, empty street in search of a sign, a shadow, but to no avail. I frowned, feeling helpless, confused and still a little shaky. The towering tree in the backyard seemed to pity me as well. I was going mad. Even the trees I looked at had expressions.

Will Jeremy ever come home?

Nobody at home really knew what happened to my brother. How did he disappear? Why was there no sign of him at all?

I was just a puzzled, lost soul who loved her brother tons but could only just sit in a corner doing nothing. But Dad knew. He was up eating leftovers when Jeremy disappeared but always acted like another me. I needed to know whether Jeremy was safe. What if the nightmares I kept having were signs, or reminders? I needed to get the answer, and something told me I needed it fast.

Over and out~

Here's just a short post to mark today - The end of exams. Its been a real stressful year for me and I can't believe 2010's gonna end in just a couple of months. I missed lots of things these few months when I couldn't switch on what fed my tech-hungry tummy. I missed the feeling of typing on a keyboard, the satisfaction of seeing the number of tweets grow, chatting on forums, chatting online and....its endless. Right now I'm sitting on my chair in my room, with the aircon temp set to a freezing 16 degrees celsius, thinking "this is the life".

I've got a few plans for the next few days:
1) Watch Charlie St. Cloud
2) Shop
3) Go support dyt at events
4) Revive twitter
5) Go skiing (Of course not in Singapore) <---- Still not done and I don't know when it will be.

And I know this is gonna be random, but I seldom upload photos so here they are:
