Out of money… Donate please?

Yes. I’m not ashamed to say this. But I’m seriously out of money. I have mere $5.03 left in my bank account (I can’t even draw any money!!) and none in my wallet and my allowance money won’t come at least until Wednesday (April 2nd).

My payment from several websites I write for hasn’t come at all and so I turn to you all…

So meanwhile.. I’m accepting donation via Paypal.


In case there are some generous people in Singapore who want to directly transfer me some money to my bank account..

UOB Savings : 399-370-138-4
OCBC Savings : 581-165-370-001

If you don’t want to donate, I’m selling some things..

Payment to my UOB/OCBC account as stated above.

Buy this necklace from me and you can buy me a decent lunch/dinner. Consider it an added value.

E-mail me to sylvia//dot//giacinta//at//gmail//dot//com if you’re interested. Immediately. Pretty please.

Thank’s for helping. Yes, I’m desperate. I can’t pay my overdue house rent. And I don’t even have money to buy food, ok? What I have is only some coins for me to take bus to and from school. My boyfriend is kind enough to buy me lunch and dinner with him but no, I’m not gonna suck his money for goodness’ sake. It’s enough.

World’s Oldest Recording

Found via MSNBC.

Experts say they already found world’s oldest recording. It was made on 1860 – 17 years before the ground-breaking Edison’s phonograph.

You can check the recording on their website. You must download the mp3 file or else play it on the browser.

To me it sounds a tad creepy…..

My attempt at beading! =D

After browsing around the web for beading tutorials.. And buying a book about beading.. And buying some beads for starters..

I finally made something! =D

Check out my 3 bracelets..

Pretty or not? =D
Well yea I know they’re not of the same size.. Please forgive me.. First timer.. =P

I put it on a white paper to give a better look..



And here’s another view..

All in all.. Beading is fun! It’s true that arts/crafts can make you relaxed =D yeah, provided the beads don’t fall =( I dropped the beads like for a thousand of times. =( So lousy..

I hope I can get better and better!

I just have to share this.

Found the video from stumbling upon. Originally I found it on this website.

Searched dailymotion and found a copy (youtube can’t be accessed in school.. Bitch).
Here it is!

Amazing, right?
I myself can play harmonica but I surely can’t play like him! (And playing harmonica is not simple you know =P)
From the dailymotion video,it says that the guy’s name is Buddy Greene.

Good friday.. Really good =)

I really love stating this fact : I’m kinda free. I feel more relaxed than usual :D

This Good Friday I went to Church of St Peter and Paul. Initially I and my boyfriend wanted to go to the Cathedral of Good Shepherd but we have heard news about it being overcrowded. Heh. It’s usually overcrowded even in usual Sundays. Can’t imagine the crowd on this special day. Novena church even put a temporary “tent” outside the church building equipped with plastic chairs, fans, and projectors+screens.

And we were right! The church wasn’t overcrowded, and the choir sang pretty nicely. Unlike the choir of Novena Church that we heard on Holy Thursday.

After the service (which included stand-kneel-stand rites and kissing the cross), we decided to eat and walk around Bugis Junction. As a typical girl I went around to see the newest earrings and other accessories and then lamented the super expensive price. (seriously, why put price so high? I can buy many cheap earrings online. Like Bobo’s blog shop. Hehe!)

Few days ago I teased my boyfriend how we never have a “couple” thing. You know, something in pairs. Something very lovey-dovey, in my opinion. As I grow up I’ve grown more ignorant to these types of “romantic things to be done with boyfriend”.

But, well… =P

Apparently my boyfriend is a sucker for cute things too =P (sorry, honey =P)
The moment we saw those things we instantly fell in love and impulsively bought it!

There are many pictures so read more to continue =)
