Hello..

I am moving my blog to onsugar and the new url is:

lovess-xoxo.onsugar.com

The difference is just the domain and I still retain lovess-xoxo. I can actually import my posts from Blogger to Onsugar. It's pretty cool as I do not have to lose any posts.

See you at Onsugar.

I feel like flying away...

2010-11-02T13:18:00.002+08:00

Suddenly, I feel like going away to the US and just shop there. Dont ask me why there but it's just a random feeling.

I guess it's the feeling of trying to run away from everything; school, work. School had just started and the sense of urgency is still not in me yet. This is no good. I need to feel stress (good stress, not overloaded with it) so that I am motivated to pay attention during lectures and tutorials, do my projects seriously and achieving good results. Maybe I can think of university entrance as my goal and work towards it. I dont know. Hopefully I will feel the urge again.

(Fuck man, what's with the other students starting projects so soon?)

I want to go to US to shop like I just said. Take cosmetics for example. Go into any pharmacy or drugstores, the products are just hanging that like how they hang packets of sweets in supermarkets here. I believe the make up there is like way cheaper and more varieties? If you want to buy decent make up in Singapore, buying them off Watsons is good enough. Variety wise, it's always the same. Unless it's Maybelline, when they always have different mascaras coming up. Even if for other brands, their make up are totally out of a normal student's allowance.

So even if I want to buy a make up primer, I cant get it from Watsons. I need to go to the Make-up Store to get it. Primer is important. It helps to make the application of foundation and concealer better and smoother.

Primer is easily available in the drugstores in USA.

So what the hell am I still doing in Singapore when the states obviously have better shopping options?

Shall make that one of my destinations to go after completing my studies.

Some day I am going to ride on the back of a white horse, across the meadow, towards the Northern lights...

I am awake on this Hari Raya at 7.45 am and couldn't get back to my slumber. Maybe it's cos I am still feeling the pain of losing my iTouch during work yesterday.

I just feel unjustified, not willing to accept it. It's not my fault that I had to put my baby inside my bag in a dangerous place. It's just a push carts with cupboards not securely locked and it's the only place you can put your belongings.

I felt like kicking my ass yesterday. Why the hell did I not put my baby inside my pocket like I always do?

FUCK!!!

Anyway, I don't know why I am posting this. Cos when I read this post in the future, it's gonna remind me of the pain of losing a $300 baby.

Well, maybe if I ever got a new toy to play with again, I will delete this post. =))

FUCK THAT FUCKER LOSER!!!!!!

2010-08-10T18:25:00.003+08:00

I am bored bored bored. Anybody or anything please entertain me??

So yeah, what's going on in my life?

Completed my compulsory internship and yeah, screw that hotel (not gonna name it) and never gonna relive the nightmare.
I went to Genting during my internship. Who says you cannot go overseas when interning?
The fucking boyfriend is serving army now.
The fucking boyfriend is serving army now.
The fucking boyfriend is serving army now.

Nabei. See the emphasis already? I really miss him lah and then he is going into Tekong jungle for training and no contact for 6 days. I feel like hurling all sorts of vulgarities now lah. !!!KNNCCB!!!!

I am so bored now and I don't even feel like heading out unless the weather is cloudy and there's presence on the wind. I mean seriously lah, like why one would want to go out and get heatstroke from the 30 plus degree Singapore sun? Might as well nua at home and sleep and have absolute nil life like me.

Ok, this post is absolutely pointless.

Damn I need to get a job

2010-02-28T21:53:00.002+08:00

Oh my goodness, it has been a long long hiatus.

But,

HOLIDAYS ARE HERE!!

Gone are those days of school and yes, no more school for me till October. That's because I will be an intern in Meritus Mandarin. Cant wait to start there actually but hopefully, I can managed it. =))

I hope that I wont screw my GPA for this semester actually. Damn CDS and SSM!! The modules will confirm pull my grades down one lor.

Ah.. Whatever!!!

I want an iTouch and a new handphone now now now!! Ok that is random but I want want want. Luckily IT Show will be coming soon and maybe they will have the i Touch at a cheaper price. I want my phone but I would rather wait till I need to renew my contract then get it. Would not be using LG becos it sucks.

Seriously, my LG phone has been lagging and has a very limited space on the phone itself. The best part is IT CAN SHUT DOWN BY ITSELF. Cool right? Stupid phone.

Will be getting a smartphone this time round. Yayness!!

Ok that's all

Bye Bye

2009-12-05T08:20:00.003+08:00

Finally! A time for me to have a quiet moment (8.21 am on a Saturday morning -.-") to pen down my thoughts.

School has been very hectic the previous weeks. What's with all the tests and submissions? For goodness sake, it's not even past half the semester yet. I actually had 5 tests this week. I dont know how I managed to pass this week seriously. But now, holidays are coming and I am super happy about it =)) AND SCREW MICE!!!

Besides attending school, There are many I-Guides events too. Like I-Guides Orientation, camp etc. Naturally there lots and lots and lots of things to do. I had never appreciated sleep and rest so much before after all these had ended. So now I appreciated my bed and pillow and Niu Niu (my cow) for giving me a comfortable place to sleep. Sleep is very important and I shall not elaborate on that.

SIP is coming soon and I have applied for Resorts World. I dont know if I am able to get the position but I really really hope to be able to do so. Frankly speaking, I am quite uncertain about entering the working life. It's more of afraid than excited. Well, I guess this feeling will pass as in the end, I STILL HAVE TO WORK.

I had fun too. I went to Kitty Lab on dear's birthday and what an irony right? It's like supposed to be his birthday but we went to Kitty Lab and see Hello Kitty which is my favourite. But but, I made a birthday card for him and got him a shirt for present. I am smart enough not to take pictures of both.

The exhibition was nice but it is so totally not worth $38. The amount of time you can spend inside there is so short and the games were too short. I had fun nevertheless.

I guess this is all for now and I will be going on a cruise next Saturday. I foresee more shopping and Christmas gift.

^^

2009-11-15T23:36:00.002+08:00

Oh dear, seems like I have been neglecting this blog of mine for a month now.

Well, this blog should not be like the previous ones, which, slipped out of my mind and decomposed gradually.

Life has been a rush ever since school starts. Mainly due to all of my commitments.

All the meetings and lists and reimbursements and whats not. So much to do, so little time. So much to do, so little energy to keep up with it.

And if anyone thinks that these are too much, this is only a fraction of my duties. I still need to keep up with my studies. SSM has been tiring. Imagine waking up 5.30 am in the morning and getting to bed at the next morning, 0000 hrs.

What can I say about Japanese and French classes? Other than being super retarded in these 2 classes, I feel suffocated. I have a disadvantage already. Some of the classmates had learned the languages before and obviously, they know what the tutor is blabbering. Poor me, sitting there, trying my very best to understand what the tutor is saying while praying hard for the torturous 3 hours to pass. Is this a good learning experience?

I feel like I am losing out of touch with everything I used to do in my personal time. I want to go shopping, spend unlimited amount of time watching dramas after dramas, sleeping till late in the day and my mother had to yell at me and I want to spend more time with dear.

I really miss the times we spent watching movies and walking around aimlessly, hand in hand. The times when we can spend talking on the phone from night to wee hours in the morning. But now I cant as I am very tired to keep the conversation going.

Now the times we had are spent in meetings and meetings only. Well, we are still meeting each other but it's different in a sense. I used to dismiss this kind of thinking but now, it seems so true to me.

So well, I shall continue to persevere and survive through everything. I am not going to give up soon. =PP

2009-10-17T16:20:00.002+08:00

Hmmm.. So school is starting on Monday.

I dont know why but it seems that this holiday period seems so short. And soon, it's another semester beginning. Best of all, school will end at 9 pm on Wed and Thurs due to CDS. Apart from the studies commitment, I now have I-Guides which I shall not comment about it yet.

So it's,

Another round of attending both lectures and tutorials from Monday to Friday.
Another round of trying to finish projects by the deadlines.
Another round of memorising notes to tackle examinations questions.

I am going to try my best to get a better GPA. I have managed to maintain my GPA after the previous semester.

Hopefully this sem will be a much more enriching one. =PP

2009-10-06T19:31:00.003+08:00

Oh my God, I dont know since when I had last blogged. And now I am back again!! Yippee!! =PP

And,

I HAVE GOT MY PAY TODAY ^^v although it wasnt a lot of money..

Super happy since I am going almost "broke" with the number of withdrawals. To celebrate my "first" pay, I bought an applicator from SaSa and it's like 5 applicators joint together into a stick. Forget, this attempt to help you visualise is an epic-failure.

I am currently working in Teadot. You know where and what is that? =PP It is a very nice working environment becoz all the people working there are young. So it's like a casual yet serious place to be working in. Maybe I am considering to continue working there when the next semester starts. I am going to be super busy. X(

Oh and I want to thank my Lao babi (^(oo)^) for accompanying me home no matter how late it was and whether you have to work the next day. Super grateful!! =PP

2009-09-16T14:48:00.003+08:00

I am always fascinated by the adorable ways Cotton and Blackie can sleep in. Especially these past few days, they were super adorable when they were sleeping or just like me, lazing around in the hot Singapore weather.

But seriously lah, these few days were super super hot. It even gave me a splitting headache with a nausea feeling. I practically skipped dinner due to the intense pain and nearly vomitted.

So anyway, here's Blackie lazing around one afternoon,

Super cute right? And it looked up after I took the picture and went back to stoning again.

Just today and the weather was like neither raining or shining, the hamsters were sleeping.

I just love this super super cute picture lah. It seems like it's biting its leg. OMG!! SO CUTE.

(^-^)

Love them to death !!

2009-09-07T11:15:00.003+08:00

Hey guys, finally I am motivated to blog after procrastinating for so so long. Chiong-ing chalets can be so so tiring and I am uber sleep deprived to the max. Main comm retreat was on the agenda first followed by the Log chalet. Nevertheless, both were so much fun!!

Main Comm retreat was held at Sentosa and it was fun-filled with activities. The Night race was the main event which happened during the first day. Imagine running all around Sentosa. From Palawan to Siloso then to Imbiah back to Palawan and then back to Siloso. Crazy and yup my team was the last but not the least. =PP Instead of running around like the rest, we took a 20 mins long bus ride to get to our destination. Cool right? LOL

Second day was the entire day spent at the beach playing Captain's ball, wading in the waters and tanning. BBQ was later after that with so much food. Back to the room saw us playing chinaman with Absolut Voldka Mango (yucks!). A fun game that is and I tested my limit with alcohol. I could take 14 shots of it before I got high and started making a fool of myself.

Main Comm retreat was ultimate fun!!!

Partial Main Comm

The next chalet was Log chalet. After checking out from Sentosa was going home to have lunch and a quick shower before heading to Pasir Ris. Bought all the food required and the guys set out to start the fire while the girls marinated the food.

Celebrated Janice's and Vivien's birthdays and yup, they of course kena "birthday bashings". Played chinaman again but this time it's with water.

Bryan joined us after that and he passed his driving test. Looks like he can drive us around alr. Ton-ed until 5:30 am before felling asleep and woke up at about 9:30 am to shower. Breakfast was McDonald's after that. Accompanied Louis home to deposit his clothes before heading to Cineleisure and watch G-Force. The guinea pigs are like super cute lah. Highly recommended.

Should be getting ready for IGuides meeting @ 2pm now. Watching Year One later.

Ciao!!

2009-08-23T21:22:00.004+08:00

I HAVE GOT THE DRESS FROM FOREVER 21 !!

Yes yes, the one which I saw online and love it. Although it wasnt what I was initially looking for, it's still something I would like to get too.

My cybershot is not doing any justice to the details of it.

Here's how it looks like online,

The model has mad skinny legs. >.

Yup and my sister would like to model it too,

I am actually looking for this dress in Forever 21,

Hopefully I can find it soon !!! =))

2009-08-16T16:30:00.002+08:00

It's the end of studying TAS.

Whatever you say people, I am not missing studying there.

Well maybe the feeling of peace and availability of computers to use everytime, BUT I am still absolutely glad to be going back to TP.

No more waking up at 6 am to attend classes 9 am and having to take an hour long bus ride (sometimes longer!) plus squeezing with office people if I am going to school in the morning. Yay! I am going back which means longer sleeping hours and shorter travelling time. Yes! =PP

Final exams are approaching soon and I should really start studying. Completed revising for Attractions Management yesterday and I felt quite productive. =)) After revision was catching the movie, Up, with Louis at The Cathay and it was horrible. There was so many people and most of the seats available were in the front. If I had a choice, I most probably will not catch a movie during the weekends. However, I must say Indonesian food was nice.

It was a nice movie and I really like the short clip they showed before the movie. The clouds and stocks are so cute!! Up was ok lah. Funny yes, but I had seen better Disney movies.

After the movie was Louis hurrying me home becoz it was quite late already.

I really need to start revision now but Introduction to Leisure and Recreation is so boring. I need to find motivation or study with someone.

Bye~!

2009-08-02T19:40:00.006+08:00

On Friday, 31 July, we came together to celebrate ~~the union of~~ birthdays of Ruey Chyi (who kept on reminding us the fact that her birthday was over by a month) and Bryan. Pardon my crap!!

So we met up at TM and had our dinner at Swensen's. And I swear I will not wear the oversized jacket out anymore!! The way they served the dishes were weird. The main courses came before the soup. Erm.. ok?? Had chicken baked rice and their creamy mushroom soup has gone smaller!!

Continued our gathering at T1 and catch up with one another.

Chloe and Aston got a mini cake for us to celebrate Ruey Chyi's and Bryan's birthday. After all the wishes and cutting of cake and lacking of serviettes, what could we possibly do with it? Chloe then came up with many ingenious ways to consume it.

Like this,

Seriously, Louis seemed like he was enjoying Bryan eating the cake from his belly button. Whatever has become of my boyfriend ?!?!?!?! T_T

All of us got it from Chloe too,

Then we had a piggyback race whereby they can only move a step forward if they answer a question correctly,

And we got a sweet revenge on Chloe,

I was having a lot of fun with them and guys, chalet's on 3rd and 4th Sept as planned ya?

Those who did not go for this will have to go for the chalet.

Yes, I am talking about you Aaron, Jiaying, Vivien and more. Gabriel also if you can make it. =))

Now may I end off this post with something that will humiliate the guys for probably the rest of their lives,

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

2009-07-23T20:13:00.004+08:00

What the hell? My blogger cant work and my whole laptop is laggy. Shouldnt have updated my laptop. Give me lots of problems now.

One question to ask, how many of us had difficulties completing a project due to free-loaders in our group? However we do not have these free-loaders complaining to the tutors to cover up their asses, do we?

I feel so sorry for a very good friend of mine. As soon as he thought all projects was submitted, his group mates or should I say, free-loaders gave him a new set of problems. Which was saying he had high expectations of them, not telling them how to improve their parts and even better still accused him of using vulgarities on them. Classic!

1) Having high expectations is the RIGHT thing

Having high expectations means that your group member thinks well enough of you to contribute to the assignment and that's why. Also, even if you dont want to have good grades, please consider for people who really want to get good grades for their GPA. I can totally imagine their GPA, maybe a 2.5 or 2 or probably less than 1? I am not trying to stereotype people here but my perception of people getting such GPA in my course is they are those type of people who wants to pass ONLY. Fine, I am biased and I am not changing my stand.

Okok, maybe a guy in that group score above 3.0 for GPA but hello?!?!? A 3.1?!!??! (I think is around that figure) Still dare to show off say top 30 in cohort. I can feel my chin dropping from 12th floor to like dont know basement level what. Even my mediocre GPA of 3.3 was not even in top 30 and yours could? Even so in terms of participating in extra activities, I dont believe I can lose out to him. Kns, still dare to go around showing off his less than mediocre GPA (when mine was mediocre). Sibei BHB can? Pui! And then what gives him the rights to throw his temper at my friend, screaming and banging his fists on the table? 本小姐 here lost my temper but still I did not bang my fists on the table and make a fuss out of it.

My friend was trying to improve the report and give you a better grade ok? In my opinion, you should treat him to a feast or better yet, a 2 days spa retreat for all the sleepless nights he had to endure to do a good report. No brains one leh this guy. I think when we go out for internship, he will most probably lose face and drag the whole LRM cohort together with him, leaving our juniors with not much choices of intership due to him. Oh, I feel very sorry for our future juniors as their senior lost his temper during internship.

2) Telling you guys how to improve macham never tell like that

I am quite guilty of this I admit becoz when I received a report which was less than acceptable, I will edit it myself and not telling them about it. But you think about it, if you can submit a very lousy piece of work (tempted to use the term, rubbish, but shall refrain from doing so), what difference would it made if my friend had told you on how to improve? The probability of you giving back the same piece of work is damn high right? Admit it. I doubt much considerations will even be taken into place and not much improvements will be made lor. 鸡蛋! Your fault also can say until is my friend's. Like that also want to go complain to tutor and push all the blame to my friend. Win already lor.

3) Accusing him of scolding vulgarities

My friend once put on his msn pm, 'Dont fucking test patience'. Also never say is you what? Though we know who it is insinuating to, I can totally understand with my friend. He was doing all the parts and receiving ~~rubbish~~ lousy piece of work to add on to his burden. I can always say,

Dont fucking feed me tomatoes
Dont fucking add to my emotional distress

I am not insinuating anyone unless they felt guilty about it lah. It's psychology (I think). Reading this nature of message will trigger their brains (do they even have one?) to think and it will process until they are so sure that it's them. Conscience people. They are guilty of that!! They still had the cheek to complain about this. Yup, another reason to prove their guilt. Dumb!!

Oh and did I mentioned that they are very bitchy? No? Ok here goes. My friend even got threatened by one male friend of theirs. Actually, my friend scolded one of the girls until she cried and yup, little innocent her went to complain to their egoistic male friends. Wow! Typical ah lian lor, cannot fight and then call for backup. You think lah, my friend said her work because it was lousy (not rubbish)and she cried. o.O? Ok lor, girls cry means win liao then guys come along act macho and threatened my friend. This guy also damn kpo lah. Unless he is jio-ing one of the girls, no point act big and everything right? Macham they will fall for you like that. Hello? They are using your sympathy!! Welcome to the dark side of girls. Another act big but no brain guy.

Seriously, crying in front of the tutor and expecting my friend to listen to the tutor and apologise will not work for my friend. I know him too well. The only thing he could apologise for (and that's the only thing) is maybe usage of vulgarities though I wont apologise if I were him. The next thing he should apologise to is himself, for grouping with such less than competent people and potentially causing his GPA to drop.

Useless!! Occupy space in the course and in TP and TAS.

PS: Me not mentioning their names is purely becoz I dont want them to become group-less in future projects and then complain about me to the tutor. Not becoz I hum ji ok?

UPDATE: I think my friend is ok with them already but I am still not. *Plants a big L on the forehead*

2009-07-22T09:43:00.003+08:00

Finally!! All projects are one. I am really looking forward to this day and yes, it's here. =PP This period of frustration had given me emotional distress like stress and in the end, I threw temper at everyone. Felt real apologetic about that. Through this period, I wont deny that I had learned from it. Like how to better myself in doing projects next time. Oh well, hopefully it wont be that bad.

Thanks to Ms Sandra Goh whom gave us a grace period of 30 mins even though we couldnt submit the project on time. If not, I will most probably break down like how I almost did.

So now, it's time for me to concentrate on studying for my exams and try to at least maintain my GPA. I really do not harbour much hope on getting it to improve. Hopefully, I can maintain it and I must.

I am kind of looking forward to the exams and then to the holidays when I can take a nice break from everything and both mentally and physically prepare myself for next sem.

Shall be studying later in TP. I must do well for my accounting test =))

Here's a picture of my Attractions Management group during our excursion to the zoo.

2009-07-16T18:51:00.006+08:00

Moo Moo got Lulu as girlfriend already. Ok for those of you who dont know who are Moo Moo and Lulu. Here they are.

Lulu and Moo Moo (from left to right)
I have got Moo Moo for dear becoz the handphone strap I had gotten for him in China was spoilt beyond repair. So yup, I got a very cute blue cow for him and we named it, Moo Moo. Then Moo Moo very lonely, becoz he had no girlfriend so dear bought for me Lulu. And they live happily ever after.

Well maybe not living together but let's just overlook that. =PP

Had been eating at Aston's and it was very worth it lah. The food was good and very affordable too. Hmmm.. Makes me kind of wonder why havent I notice it earlier? I should start sourcing cheap but good food already. =PP

But I still crave for sushi though. The best..

dear kept on playing with my handphone... >.<

And then, he looked damn focus in his game than me =((

Bo bian, I shall camwhored to entertain myself..

Oh oh, as usual yesterday was unofficial off-day for me and so, I went to sengkang as early as 11 am. >.< Met dear and we bought food to cook. And tadah! We made pasta in carbonara sauce with bacon bits and hotdogs. It was nice ok??

I had lunch with Prin today and we talked about a lot of stuff. Since how long ago had I last had a talk with my secondary school best friends? Dont worry Tricia, you can join us in Harbourfront so get yourself down. =))

Ok shall end here,

Ciao!!

2009-07-11T13:36:00.002+08:00

I am so so lazy now.

After submission of 3 assignments yesterday, I am taking a break from projects before chionging for Festival and Events and Attractions projects. These 2 weeks of break are really good for me in the sense that I can finish whatever assignments I have on hand. And I need to revise my homework. Ah... Motivation motivation motivation. Cannot let GPA to drop any further.

I just converted to Mozilla and, am I being such a noob for failing to realise the greatness of Mozilla? They have themes for downloads and of course, I have mine in pink. =)) But I cant change the colour of my scrollbars as seen in the screenshots. Oh well. See how first. Now my internet browser is in pink and I am happy enough.

Oh and I saw the famous Xiaxue yesterday at eHub. I was like "Oh my God, it's Xiaxue leh" and her hair is damn blond lor. Imagine the maintenance, when the black roots are out, you got to dye blond again. Hmmm.. and ya she isnt that tall bu oh well, I have nothing against her anyway.

Lazing around on a Saturday afternoon with apple flavoured soft drink beside me is damn good. =))

This post is so so so random btw. -.-"

2009-07-06T11:13:00.002+08:00

Submissions on 10 July,

Intro to LeiRec
APEL Service Reflection
BE

Well at least I had completed my APEL thingy but there's still alot. And the best part is, I havent start to collate Intro to LeiRec project. Hope I will receive work (with more efforts). Gosh Gosh. Maybe I will start on BE soon. Oh shucks.. See my mood bah.

Going out for lunch later with Angeline and Grandma and later meeting Louis for dinner.

Tell me, how to finish my accounting tutorial??

Okok, I shall start now perhaps.

2009-06-27T23:09:00.003+08:00

I am back~~

What a week after school reopened! Project submission on Monday, received back my project and mid sem Accounting grades and presentation on Friday.

I am so very frustrated with my grades so far. There's no bloody "A" in anything and yes, I am very upset with myself indeed. Oh well, what can I do but to try harder? Not much confidence though for all the subjects seem so.. difficult. Presentation on Friday was quite good. Not much shooting down from Ms Seow and so yeah, I survived. =))

And next week no school !! Haha! Due to AYG, LRM year 2 will be given 2 weeks off. Of course, there will be e-learning and projects to chiong. It beats going to TAS everyday. =)) Louis kept on claiming credits for he persuaded me to give up AYG. How irony, persuading someone to give up something. -.-" Hmmm.. Guess he deserved some credits in a twisted sense then. =PP

I had made it into IGuides Main Committee 09/10 and holding the position of Head of Administration. Right.. I still dont know how I got that post. Maybe I werent too firm in making my stand. Hopefully I can cope with it as my next sem will 100% be twice or more busy than I am now.

I am so looking forward to home-cooked lunch next Tuesday, ok Louis? =PP

2009-06-19T21:17:00.003+08:00

Oh how I hate being a girl during certain times.

I hate it when my da yi ma (Aunt Flo)comes. Argh! Those times when I have the classic cases of PMS, outbreaks of pimples and suffered the agony from experiencing cramps. Then when it came, I will have to be mindful of my posture and everything. Wahlao! So sian!

And I almost malu myself today. Oh my gosh~~!! But luckily nothing happened. I dont want to be a girl!! Everything which I have to do is troublesome by nature. Even going to the ladies took twice the amount of time a guy spent in the gents.

Ok time to comfort myself with the seafood mummy bought.

=))

2009-06-13T15:56:00.004+08:00

I am feeling so productive these days. For..

I cut my hair. (How ironic since I want longer hair).
I have finally lunched with sis and ah ma since I couldnt recall when I last did that.
Been on the Flyer
Finished my Festival and Events individual report.
Restaurant City Restaurant City Restaurant City.

And my mummy and sisters were shocked that I am staying at home on a Saturday. But that is ok, becoz I actually realised that I can finish my work. All the outings during weekdays were depriving me of the time to do my projects. Which was worrying.

Oh well, guess that I am staying home during weekends more often. Shall be a very good girl from now on. =P

Went on the Flyer yesterday. Paid $10 due to the student promotion they have. And I think the ride only worth $10 instead of its usual $30. Is slightly overrated lah. Nothing much except for the nice view of Singapore at night. If not, it gave one a feeling of being in a ferris wheel that's all. Overall it's a good experience for me. My sony cybershot is dumb lah for it cant take very nice night shots. Grr!!

Introducing new loves,

Cotton and Blackie

Bought by Louis, these are the two lastest additions to my family. The breed is normal winter white though the name of the breed doesnt quite justify their colour. They are both females and very cute.

And all they do were sleeping everyday. Such a good life.

~*~

I guess I should stop being so anal about things. I shouldnt be so selfish as to wanting people to accommodate to me. Maybe I should be compromising to others and not showing attitude. Afterall, some things cannot be postponed or cancelled just becoz of me.

Then I start to think, havent I compromised enough? I pushed away gatherings in advance too, havent I?

Well, tears fallen and I have recovered.

Maybe the day is just another day and I shouldnt make such a big fuss about it. Shall look how things go.

2009-06-13T00:07:00.003+08:00

What an eventful day.. i mean yesterday

2009-06-02T12:19:00.002+08:00

I was deleting some old pictures in my lappie when I came across this ..

Seriously, they are damn free lah. Dont know what the hell is wrong with them.

My sisters ah ...

-.-"

Stupid weather !!!

2009-05-28T13:19:00.004+08:00

Can anyone give me a reason, or motivation to get this Hello Kitty luggage? I keep on seeing it in Vivo and so tempted to buy but resisted. Is that kind of feeling when I do not wish to buy as I have no need for it but I am afraid I will regret when it is out of stock. Wah!! Dilemma, dilemma!! I cannot get it as I do not travel much and no point investing in this luggage. Unless, I apply for OSIP( which most probably will not happen) or I am so lucky enough to get my internship on a cruise. So pls, give me the intership and a reason to buy this... =))

These days are so freaking ~~warm~~ hot until I really dont want to step out of my house. I can bathe like 3 times a day (once in the morning, once when I got home and once before I sleep) and still feel sticky. Irritating!! The heat is so intense to me, that I literally feel like I am melting lor.

And then if this isnt worse enough, the heat is getting onto me. One of the issues studying in TAS is that we have to walk like 5 mins to the school from Imbiah station. 5 mins is no big deal but it is a HUGE issue when there's NO shelters or trees shading you while walking. So the Sun is blazing at you. This will cause me very bad headaches and I cannot do anything about it. Seriously, I never had so much headaches studying in TP compared to studying in TAS.

There's one time Angeline told me the weather was due to global warming. I know it was partially due to the global warming, apart from the fact that it's always warm in Singapore. However, the heat nowadays is too much for normal times.

For goodness' sake to whoever is still contributing to global warming, pls like stop whatever you are polluting or whatever. And also grow more trees to provide shade. Now, I am turning into like an activist for green environment. Although I am quite guilty for I am turning on the air-con often now, I am forced to, duh! The weather is too hot for me. Just cut down on the emission of carbon dioxide or monoxide or whatever (Ah-ha! Biology and Chemistry) into the ozone and then living things like polar bears or me can continue living in beautiful Earth.

Now I miss the weather in China.

2009-05-20T08:54:00.002+08:00

Love is when your bf came all the way to Vivocity after going to TP and next to Cityhall to repair his laptop. He still went to Vivo despite being tired just to send you herbal tea, sweets for the tea and medicine, just becoz you were sick the previous day.

Thanks a lot, dear =))

I am supposed to be studying for Attraction Management test now but then somehow, my mind drifted off to thinking many random things.

For example,

` I really need to clean out my closet
` I want to shop at Forever 21
` I am keeping my fringe long from now on
` I am going to be so dead for this sem

Stupid projects and everything. Why must the difficulty level be so high? Oh well, I shall see how things go.

And it's a very nice Sunday afternoon I must say.

Ok randomness.

2009-05-14T21:00:00.003+08:00

Everyone around me is turning 18 and going to apply for their driving class soon. >.< I want to be 18 now now now. But I still have like 6 more months to go. Ah !!!

>.<

2009-05-13T20:44:00.005+08:00

I have the cutest boyfriend ever !!

(^-^)

Yesterday was fourth month-niversary and we had dinner at Sakae Sushi. And he never really go and have a meal there often. So, he was ~~quite curious~~ playing around with the interactive menu.

Next, when whatever he ordered (which was a lot btw) arrived, he was like damn happy becoz the food he ordered over the interactive menu came so it was successful. Ok, that was becoz some food items which I ordered did not come. -.-"

Then, the normal to eat a sushi is to dip the entire piece into the wasabi right? He did the most unexpected thing ever. To me. By separating both chopsticks and spread wasabi onto the sushi. Hmmm.. I dont know how to describe lah but it was quite ~~funny~~ entertaining to me. =D

HAPPY 4 MONTHS !! =))

2009-05-10T21:56:00.000+08:00

Yo people. I hadnt been updating. I know I know. So I decided to let pictures do the talking eh? =)) Anyhow I am so so glad to be back in Singapore and back to familar scenes and sounds. So yup, here's the pictures

Dawn and I at T3

The immigration pass I needed to fill up before entering China. Note that they addressed all foreigners as aliens.

While waiting in Hongqiao Airport in Shanghai for our domestic flight to Shijiazhuang.

A view from my window seat

I know I look exceptionally cui in this photo

As a matter of fact, all of us did. Well, we sat through a 5 hours long flight at 12:55 am from Singapore to Shanghai. Then transit from Shanghai to Shijiazhuang, meanwhile we had to wait like 4 hours in between.

Shijiazhuang International Airport

Sakura tree in No.42 Middle School
The school

Ok. This cafe near the school is damn cool. The things here are all less than SGD$1 and the seats are swings. So you can swing when you eat your lunch. Super cool lor. Why Singapore dont have such a cafe one?

Yijie and I eating Mandarin oranges, courtesy of Dawn.

This is the 新天地 lor. The first shopping mall we went.

The streets in Shijiazhuang

Dinner at Jinnie's homestay family's restaurant was delicious.

Alcohol was very affordable in China as only 2 yuan per can. So the guys had a great time knocking themselves out.
This is not a beer but it tastes and smell like one. Very nice drink.

This is their library

Hahahahah! 18 cm. Insiders joke.

The 水上公园

They have a lot of peach blossoms there. Which was very very very nice. =))

Testing my photography skills

On the train to Beijing

Meal at Pizza Hut

Vanessa and I together with our homestay kids

We went to 全聚德 to eat their famous Peking duck. Here's a chef preparing our duck. And it's not cheap lor!!

My chinese tea that was so bitter

The duck skin was served first. It was supposed to be the nicest part.

The meat

That's what you put in it.

Back to Shijiazhuang, and back to marking this thick of papers

The class that I took. Believe me, there are 60 over students.

My homestay kid and me

Ok, I am sian about putting up pictures le. The rest I shall do it next time.

=))

So that's my time in China

2009-04-27T11:28:00.002+08:00

Oh shucks!

I am so lazy to blog right now. Maybe not lazy lah, becoz since I touched down 2 weeks ago. I had to chiong a report and complete it within a week. And I had absolutely no idea how to do the report as I had learnt absolutely nothing from my attachment.

Then school had to reopen and my new location is at TAS (Tourism Academy @ Sentosa). So it is rather sian as I have to travel all the way from Bedok to Habourfront, then get onto the Sentosa Express and walk to the school after I alighted. And the same process when I am getting home too. You see lah, sian anot? If it's like 1 week 2 to 3 days or a short period of time like 1 month, I may not be so sick of it. But it's for a sem. Oh gosh!

And contrary to what you guys think, the environment is not say relax or what. With the amount and difficulty level of projects and assigments, it is very stressful. The seminar rooms for lectures are quite spacious and comfortable. Well, there are only like 2 diplomas in the entire school. So ya, and that's about it.

I am working on the China post though. May take some time as Blogger is now slow in uploading photos.

Ok, I am bored from waiting for my bf. -.-"" And to add on, I am now at TP and have to go back to TAS later.

Yayness!

2009-04-13T22:16:00.000+08:00

I AM GOING HOME SOON !!!

=))

Shall blog more when home =))

2009-04-07T20:30:00.002+08:00

I know I have been mia-ing for long. Well, it's not becoz I am having so much fun till I have no time to blog. But there's really nothing to blog! Now that I am blogging, it means that I have a few things to rant. =))

Attachment so far was BORING! Everyday, I will reach school 10 mins late and nobody really bothers. So I will just sit together with friends and crap until my supervisor decides to give me things to do. And everyday, I will fall asleep after lunch. I will also sit in one of the classes and listen to the teacher teaching the class. Then I realised that the whole syllabus is very screwed up lah. Their teachers were practically teaching them the wrong sentence structure, wrong pronunciation etc. I was quite pek chek at that becoz when I am grading their assignments, some mistakes could be avoided. Sometimes it's to the extent that I felt like vomiting blood. So people, it is not that the Chinese are not good in English. It is them learning the wrong English when they were still studying. Now I understand and dont blame them at all.

I went over to Beijing over the weekend and it was kind of a wasted trip for me. Shallnt continue with the details. But at least I got to visit 天安门 and went to 全聚德 to have their all time famous 北京烤鸭. And oh oh, I got to experience how locals live. Ok maybe not their habit of spitting everywhere but I got to travel in their "MRT" and it wasnt a fun experience. As China is very over populated, the train was very crowded and squeezy till you literally have no chance of falling over. Oh my gosh! Now I shallnt complain when taking MRT in Singapore already. Overall, Beijing is more civilised than Shijiazhuang in my opinion and that the drivers there do not honk incessantly.

Ok, that's all for now. I am super lazy already.

=pp

Ciao!

2009-04-01T21:41:00.002+08:00

School was as usual, boring. I can even sleep in the office when I am supposed to be doing something constructive lah. Not that I slack there or what leh, is just that I have absolutely nothing to do. Everyday I just need to sit in one class and observe how the class was conducted and then I either marked papers or sit and stone, with the latter being the most frequent. In the end, I always get like lunch break 2 hours earlier and off work 1 hour earlier. There's nothing to do seriously!!

Something funny happened yesterday. So Vanessa and I decided to have some Singapore food for dinner so we went to the market place near my home to get some food. But it was quite a frustrating yet amusing experience. As we did not really have the experience of buying food from the market (I always get what I want from supermarkets), we did not know how to purchase them. In the end, we got a bunch of 小白菜, soy sauce and oh yes, white pepper.

As pepper is 胡椒粉, we said that to the auntie selling spices. I asked if she sell the pepper and she gave me the blank stare. We really didnt know how to describe pepper to her and it was frustrating. In the end, she tried to sell me red kidney beans. Beans and peppers are like so different lah. We finally gave up and went to a convenience store to get our pepper. They have it there. So if there is such thing as 胡椒粉, why did the auntie not understand me?

2009-03-30T20:08:00.002+08:00

Oh my gosh people, I saw SNOW today!!

Finally in like 17 years, I saw my first snow. =)) Very very happy. =))

So yup, I started my attachment today and I still didnt know who is my supervisor. Ya, whatever lah.

And it's super boring and I dont know what to blog. I mean, I just sat there and marked their English exam papers. That's all for the entire day. Oh well, see how it goes tmr.

Had lunch with Jinnie's and my homestay kids together with their friends, Vanessa and Dawn. Had a meal less than SGD$2 and I like how we sang 小酒窝 together. =))

Since only Dawn and I returned to the school after lunch, we went back to the staffroom and continued with our marking. I also began to sing random songs and irritate the hell out of Dawn. Hahaha!

That's the beginning of my boring attachment.

2009-03-30T00:25:00.003+08:00

Are all the changes I have made worth anything?
Are they even noticed?
Are they turning me into an entirely different person?

2009-03-29T19:18:00.002+08:00

Hey people, I am back again.

So continue on with my trip in China. Finally, I am able to go shopping last Wednesday. Our teacher who is in charge of playing host to us gave us a map to show us the exact way of going to the shopping malls. She even showed us which bus to take. But us not being very sure of the direction and the wrong perception that cabbing in China is amazingly cheap, we cabbed down. We decided to head off to this shopping centre, 新天地. It is supposed to be a relatively new shopping centre with a lot of shops catering to teenagers. We went and it was not open yet. Well duh, we reached around 8:45 am in the morning and the mall opened at 10 am. Very very dumb indeed.

It was around 10 degrees Celsius and we were freezing. Then we decided to head to McDonald’s to get some hot drinks and warm breakfast for some of us. I got a cup of hot tea and slack with Dawn till about 10 am. Oh and 1 more thing, the toilet in McDonald’s was surprisingly clean. Yes, it was super clean and I was a happy user. =)) LOL! I felt like it had been very long since I should a proper, clean toilet which did not stink or show me what the previous user left behind, if you know what I mean. To take full advantage of it, I used the toilet twice. Now I know where I can get clean toilets.

We left for the shopping centre at around 10:20 am and I was very proud that I can cross the roads without any screaming. I can cross the roads like the locals here and survive! Yes, I survive! So ya, that was my momentary sense of achievement. Ok back to the main topic, the shopping centre was like Bugis street or Far East. There was a variety of things here and the price was somewhat reasonable? I just felt that at the price they were charging, I can get a better deal in Singapore and better quality too. Then when I am having fun shopping, we were called back to school because the lecturers were going to visit our school and we had to be there. Very spoil mood lor. Nothing much after I got what I want before heading off to Pizza Hut for lunch with Dawn, Vanessa and Jinnie. Finally! Pizza Hut gave a taste of home. The pizzas here were actually more expensive than Singapore's. Take the New Orleans Wings for example. It's RMB24 so it's about SGD$6. I heard that it's cheaper in Singapore. So ya, if it wasnt for the “taste of home”, I will never consider eating there. My spending power is quite tight here people! Not that I am stingy or what.

When we reached back our school, we headed off to the calligraphy room to wait for our teachers’ arrival. The teacher allowed us to play around with the ink and brush there. I tried writing my name with the brush but sucks terribly at it becoz I had no idea how to control the brush. Then the foreign students whom I mentioned earlier came into our classroom as it was their free time. So we chatted a bit and laughed. They were very nice to talk. We crapped with each other until the lecturers came and they went off.

After that was heading to Jinnie's homestay for dinner. Apparently her family owned a restaurant so we could head there for dinner. Coincidentally, my kid (as in the kid in my homestay) was there for dinner too. Met up with the guys and we had dinner together. There were 8 dishes and very nice. The best part was we did not have to pay for the meal. But the guys had to pay for their beers becoz they had 13 bottles. Heard that they knocked out after getting back to their hostel.So I got home, tidied some stuffs and got online to chat with boyfriend. I miss him so much!

So yesterday, we had to go for an excursion trip around Shijiazhuang. Met up with Vanessa before heading to school. As it was very cold, we went into the auditorium to fool around, singing songs. And it was very long before the bus came. Well duh, the guys were knocked out yesterday and it would be very hard to get them up.

We visited like a temple and the place where 红楼梦 was being filmed. I wasnt really paying attention to the guide as I am busy trying to keep myself awake and warm. Neither did most of us, I think. But while we werent listening, there would be this group of locals trying to get into our group. That was becoz they wanted to listen what the guide had to say and explain to them about the things in the place. We gave them the term “free-loaders” and the guys decided to get all of us in front, leaving these free-loaders at the back. We paid like RMB140 after the tour lah. They did not pay anything and want to listen too. Very smart lor. Plus they still had the cheek to elbow us to get front. What the hell! No shame at all. The whole excursion ended around 3 pm plus and then one of the lecturers would be visiting my home.

So Ms Lim visited my homestay family and we stayed there to talk. Vanessa was with us too. Went out for shopping at 新天地 again and to meet up with the guys and girls from 18中. Dinner was at Pizza Hut again and Vanessa and I ordered a lot of food. Headed home after that and cab fare was not cheap at all!

Today was another day out with our kids and us (Dawn, Vanessa, Jinne and me). But before, my kid and I headed over to Vanessa's homestay for breakfast. I GOT TO EAT SINGAPORE FOOD! Thanks to Vanessa who brought maggi mee over. I miss Singapore food even though it was just instant noodles and milo. Next, we went to this wholesale place which sold books and stationery. Vanessa's kid had to get a book and so we went there. I got myself gift for people, cute stationeries and a pink Hello Kitty pouch. Very happy! =)) Next we cabbed down to this place which was freakingly crowded. So we didnt buy anything but had McDonald's for lunch. Yay! "Taste of home" again. =))

Oh, and I took their 公车 for the first time and it shall be the last. The people just elbowed their way through the crowded bus and hit Vanessa quite hard. Dont know what to say leh.

Met up with ah yi and her family for a tour at the lake. It had a nice view there. I had my first try at flying the kite too. =))

I realized that I only ate dinner twice at home and this isnt acceptable to me at all. So I think when attachment starts next week, I will be heading home for dinner everyday. It’s to save money too! I had been cabbing everywhere and it's not cheap already. So I should cut down on going out so often. Plus, we still had an impending trip to Beijing too. I need to save money.

Ok I got to go now. Bye. =)

2009-03-27T22:26:00.002+08:00

Ok, before you get the idea that I am not treated well here or could not get used to the life here, I shall clarify things clearly. I am just what most people overseas will feel, homesick. I miss Singapore. I miss the familiar life there. I miss the people.

Never thought that I would be so homesick and it's what? Not even the 10th day. But I really feel very homesick. Maybe when days passed, I will be better. Afterall, I am still able to contact home. I even got a China prepaid card (which was not cheap btw) to call home. It entitled me to free 100 mins of international calls so it should be enough. I will be fine.

My homestay is good over here. The family was nice, too nice as the matter of fact. The mother saw to my needs and even paid attention to minute details like I wasn’t feeling well. That’s right; my body had not really adapted to the climate change. It’s a friggin 20 degrees Celsius here. And that is the maximum temperature. It could be lower. I had this sinus problem since forever and of course, it aggravated since my arrival. Back to the point, yup it was really nice to stay with the family. I got my own room with the convenience of a computer. They also kept on piling my plate with food and more food. I think I will grow fatter. Oh my gosh! No!

42 中 is a pretty big school. They have like the high school and the middle school studying together in the same compound. So naturally, there are lots and lots of students. Oh, and the number of bicycles in the school is huge. Bet you can never see this amount of bicycles anywhere in Singapore, not even the bicycle kiosks in East Coast Park. The teachers are rather friendly. The students will be like looking at us and perhaps making comments amongst themselves? I don’t know. It could be our dressings as we or should I say, I was wrapped up like a dumpling. The classrooms are not as high tech as Singapore but I think it's is still conducive for studying. I have a problem with the toilets though. They stink to high heavens. You can also literally see flies flying around. Yes, that's how bad it is. Plus, they have no doors to their cubicles in the toilets. NO DOORS. So you basically have to finish whatever business you have in the public. I may be quite open minded but going half naked from the bottom and doing whatever business in open is definitely a no-no for me. I wonder how can the students tahan it?

Well, at least I know the other foreign students could not accept it. I attended a class with them. They are from Thailand, Italy, Australia, America? and Japan. And they are learning to speak Mandarin too! I really take my hat off of them. Seriously, I don’t think I will ever dedicate years of time to learn Japanese or French. But they could make simple introduction about themselves in Mandarin and understood the teacher. FYI, the teacher wasnt speaking English when teaching them. Ok, maybe English was used occasionally to explain some terms. The point is they can understand Chinese. Zai lor. The lesson was conducted in a very conventional way. Something like your secondary mother tongue class. So naturally, I erm, slept. Hahaha! =pp

Besides sitting in class to listen to the lesson, we went to get our prepaid card too. And we walked there and it's very very far. I hate it when we had to cross the roads becoz the cars just drove on even though it showed green man. Maybe it's the traffic light problem. And then, they also zai lor. They can even drive onto pedestrian pavement. I have a really good piece of mind to like yell at them but then Vanessa told me that it would be to our disadvantage if we do so. So ya, I diam diam. They love to honk and honk and honk. Well of course, with the traffic that do not really respect the basic road safety regulations, who wont? So I am slightly scared if I am going home on my own. Becoz the house is rather ulu and it’s quite a long walk. But then ya, I will figure it out by myself.

So basically, that is my first few days. Will be blogging more if possible.

Pictures will be up soon if I am not lazy.

Ciao!

2009-03-24T19:45:00.002+08:00

BYE PEOPLE =)) !!

Till 15 April or maybe soon when I am in China =))
Will miss you all!! =))

2009-03-23T20:53:00.003+08:00

Ah...! Shucks! I am leaving for China tomorrow already. How time flies. I dont know what to feel now leh. It's this sense of dread coupled with a feeling of helplessness. Bo bian also. Have to go; if not, I will only cause trouble for myself.

Yup, I am still not looking forward to this trip. Very very not excited or whatsoever. And with this headache I am experiencing now, it is so not helping. Now I am not very sure if I had packed enough for my trip anot. I worried about the lack of clothes to wear and then if I had brought along all or enough necessities. I need a lot of things to get me ready. Serious! I am also not confident of using China's product should I lack of anything. So ya. Aiya! Damn troublesome lah. Why do I have to go to China sia?? Why oh why?? Then I am also damn damn scared of the pickpockets there, people trying to exploit me and maybe people charging me exorbitant prices knowing that I am not local. Then also got the family I am staying with. Till now, I still dont know how to communicate with them. Luckily they have internet connection in their home. At least I log on to the internet. If I can get the idea across to them.

I will be taking China Eastern airline and I am so not impressed by them lah. I mean please lah, even though it is in economy class but they can at least provide a private entertainment unit right? What's with the screening of movies on a screen that's shared with 10 rows of passengers? Oh my gosh and I dont think their seats are comfortable so my intention of sleeping throughout the entire journey may be gone. Food wise, I dont know but they better not serve me anything dubious. I also hope that the air stewardess will not be nasty or give attitude. If they do so, I am going to give them back the exact same face and make life difficult. Dont really like people giving attitude to me when I am in a very very bad mood. =))

Sian sian sian.. I dont want to leave Singapore!! I think I am so so biased. I dont think I will react so violently if I am going to Australia. At least I know I will be safe there. Ok maybe not safe but at least I know I wont have communication problem or difficulties to adapting to life there.

And I will miss Singapore. I will miss the food. Nowadays I am eating quite a variety of local food. Chicken rice, Hokkien mee, Laksa, Nasi Lemak etc. I will also miss a lot of people lah. Family and friends and last but not least, boyfriend. Haiz. Sian lah. 21 days. Cannot say that it's long but neither is it short. Must tahan.

I dont know if I will be blogging tomorrow so I better have this down.

I will be living at this address

赵一街小区1-1-102

And the telephone of the household is

13180442792 or 87775492 (I dont know which one)

I am bringing a prepaid card over so I wont be using my current number. So ya, please dont bother to msg or call me at my number till 15 April =))

I want to get my address here or phone number is because in case anything happens, I can blog "HELP" here and you will know how to help me. Right? You will right? LOL =)) But ya, please dont anyhow go call and disturb hor.

I guess this marks the end of my post for now. If I can log in to blogger while in China, I will definitely blog there.

Till then or 15 April.

Bye~!

2009-03-16T17:29:00.008+08:00

I have no mood to blog lately. Blame it on the weather or I am ~~lazy~~ tired out from all the activities to blog.

The weather, I think, contributed to my ~~lazy-ness~~ delay in blogging. It's like raining every single day and it made me very very sleepy and go into a semi conscious state. So I shall be motivated to blog now since I wont be doing it often soon, would I?

I still cant get over my results although it was out for almost a week already. At first, I wasnt that upset about it when I first viewed it. In fact, I was actually very happy that I didnt get supp paper for Marketing. Then as days passed, I got more and more upset. My GPA, which wasnt some thing to boast of in the first place, dropped. I dont know what would constitute to be like a major or slight drop in GPA, a drop of 0.15 is it a lot? And I heard from many people that it's going to drop more for it's always in Year 1 when your GPA is the highest during the 3 years. Oh my gosh, I cannot afford to let it drop. Drop any more will jeopardise my chance of getting into the local U. What to do now? Got to chiong for the next sem already. -.-"

Oh and rmb I wanted to get into DHL? Considering the GPA I have now, I think it's gone already. This makes me even more upset. ='((

DAMN MARKETING !!!

Went out with IGuides on Friday to Teo Heng and I shall let pictures do the talking. =))

I have gotten my PINK camera already. It's the sony S950.

Went to the IT Show on Sat and it was so crowded lah. It's literally people pushing me to move instead of me walking. And Jacqueline was still able to tahan the crowd when I am already down there feeling light headed and going to vomit or faint any moment. So ya, we made to the Sony counter successfully and looked through the cameras there. I wanted to buy the T77 at first but then the PINK version was sold out already. That time my heart went "piang" and broke in millions of pieces. This shows that PINK is a very popular colour and many people love it and we should have more things in PINK. =)) Jacqueline pointed out to me this camera which was in PINK lying around the counter. It wasnt as chio as T77 but it's in the colour that I want and looked quite nice too. Plus, it's still 10 megapixels and quite light. I asked the salesman if still have stock anot becoz I thought of like looking around for other brands. Then he quite smart lah, told me still got stock, but given the crowd, it may be gone soon. So my kiasu sense kicked in and I bought it. No regrets though. The image quality not that bad lah and we camwhored after we got home.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!

Next I want to talk about is my impending trip to China. It's less than 10 days to my 3 weeks attachment there. Cant say that I am overly excited about it or looking forward to it. I even foresee that I will break down and cry in the airport. I am so going to miss everything and everyone in Singapore. 21 days are not very long neither are they very short too. I should learn how to adapt to the living conditions there no matter how much biasness I have towards that country. Just now Mrs Lim called and told me I am one of the 9 students whom will get homestay instead of living in the hostel. This means I will have to live with an actual Chinese family. Oh my gosh! Like how am I going to do it! Instead of living together with my classmates, I now have to learn how to get along with the Chinese. And even better, I have to pay S$200 for the homestay which is like 1000 renminbi. For 3 weeks? Abit bo hua leh. Provided if they give me free internet access 24/7 then I may consider. But then again, I dont want lah. Becoz in homestay, we have to follow their rules and what if they gave me a curfew or what? I already told Mrs Lim I dont want to be accomodated in someone else's home and guess I have to wait for her reply then. I know I sounded like a spoilt brat but I really cannot take it.

I am so clingy around people nowadays. Maybe it's becoz I am leaving soon and I want to be with them as much as possible. But then boyfriend now has work and I doubt we could meet up as often as we did before. Ah sian! Nevermind, I will think of something. I am so going to cling onto everyone. =))

That's my rantings for now.

Hopefully I have got something to blog about soon.

Wah... So many things happened the past few days. I am too lazy to blog about everything lah.

So last Sunday was my family photo taking session and we had to like report to my aunt's house at 9:30 am. It's very sian lor becoz I had to wake up at 8 am and on a Sunday somemore. -.-" And I got a chio pink dress. =)) Ok I am digressing. The photo shoot lasted for about 2 hours and I am very very sian halfway through. Imagine lah, for 2 hours stand there and smile smile. The cheeks will be aching lah.

After that was slacking around the house and I promptly went to sleep as the weather was so nice. Raining leh. But then the thunders were damn loud lah and stunned me. Dinner later at some Teochew restaurant to celebrate my grandpa's 80 birthday. =))

Went to Sentosa on Monday and was joined with Candice and Leeshen. Candice wanted to tan but then the sun wasnt out. Even if it was out, it's only for what, 5 minutes only. Haha! Damn failure lah. Then best of all, when we heading for showers, it rained very heavily and got us all drenched. Haha! We walked around Sentosa while waiting for Jasmine to meet us at Vivo. I want the photos !!

Ohoh, so yesterday Candice and I went swimming in the morning. And this time, it rained heavily again. But we still swam and the feeling quite shiok. =)) Breakfast was the best. Bak Chor mee, "shui kueh" and apple juice. =))

Watched Pink Panther with Louis yesterday and it was very funny like the first one. LOL. The detective ah, always do stupid things one but in the end the hero is always him. And then his face also. It's always comical. =p

Ok I dont know what else to say liao.

Bye..

Angeline and me

My aunt

Jacqueline trying to zi lian

I want more photos lah people. Email them to me =))

Holidays and Parties

2009-02-26T09:47:00.004+08:00

Exams are finally over !!!

\(^-^)/

I am so so so happy =)) I hope I wont do too badly for this sem although I have a feeling I wont be able to maintain my position in the top 10 % but then again, I gave my best alr and yup, hope for the best bah. And I dont want to do Marketing supp paper. I dont want to touch those cursed lecture notes ever again.

*Praying hard*

I am going to be year 2 alr leh. Not really looking forward going to Sentosa to study. The school has like only 2 toilets in two different blocks. And the canteen called "Fair and Square" is nothing like TP canteens. But I got my Sentosa card now (and it's in pink !! =))) and I can get into Sentosa for free and have like discounts in most of the things there. Jealous anot people? Be jealous!!

So it's holidays for me now and I really dont know how to spend my 3 weeks here. Everyone is looking for a job and I dont really feel like idling leh. But I need to find jobs that are like temporary kinds, something like events. Oh well. I shall see bah. If there got lobang then I work. If not, then I will just idle around. =))

Went drinking with the usual clique yesterday. Was supposed to be meeting in Timbre at Boat Quay there but due to unforeseen circumstances, we just ate pizza and calamari rings and a Shirley Temple for me. The ambience there was nice. It's something like al fresco dining which I would preferred most and the view wasnt bad. ~~Pictures will be up later.~~ Pictures are up !! =))

Since Lester was driving, we went to Georges at Siglap to continue. The journey there was rather ~~funny~~ an interesting one. With Boo being the nagivator who isnt sure of the directions and Lester being the driver who asked turn right or left at every traffic lights. Wah confirm plus chop is damn damn funny... er no... interesting =))

So at Georges, we had a tower of Heineken first and I drank like 2 glasses, I think. And we talked about Intoxication, the upcoming chalet on Friday which is totally about alcohol and party. I mean, from the name of the party, can tell is drink alcohol all night. So ya, there will be a DJ around to play music etc. Going to be damn good I think. =))

Candice and Edmund joined us later and we ordered yet another tower of Heineken. I drank like 1 more glass.

We left like around 12:45 am and they sent me home (duh! Becoz everyone was in the car). I was actually feeling a bit tipsy. Guess I cannot handle lager well.

Seeing Lester driving a car re-ignite my desire to drive too. I shall register for my BTT when I OFFICIALLY hit 18. Yes yes. Then I will psycho my parents into getting me a car, I dont mind if it has to be a second hand one. Alot of things will be made easier when I have a car. No more squeezing onto the bus or into the MRT and shopping will be easier too. =))

Now I shall proceed on to daydreaming.

TTFN

Pink chio-ness but not Marketing

2009-02-23T12:44:00.005+08:00

Wah!! I am damn sick of marketing lah. WTH!!! The definitions to me are like just randoms words put together to give a chim appearance only lor. It does not make any sense.

For example,

Customer satisfaction are perceived value delievered relative to buyer's expectations.

When a customer is happy with the product or service he/she got, he/she will be naturally satisfied right? Or, in other words, when the product or service I received exceeded my expectations, then I will derive satisfaction.

I still find my definitions easier than the former. Perceived value is like the customer's perception of value right? Isnt it the same as buyer's expectations since in dont-know-one chapter I studied, buyer's expectations arised from past experiences and from "hearsays". So if I already have past experiences and if the product or service is good, I will naturally have the perception that that particular product or service is good right?

So does not make any logic to me lah. Alamak!! Then I got so worried over nothing. I was like thinking, "Die already, my command of English is lagging."

Oh my God!! Stupid marketing. And HTM got the easier job of doing GeogTravel. It's just learning about different countries which is like more interesting than marketing. I dont want to be a marketer next time. I want to be working in a job more towards dealing with customers. More challenging. Or maybe I can be planner, planning for people's D&D, weddings, parties etc. So fun !!! ^-^

Ya, in conclusion, marketing is so not fun lor. Phew! Feeling better after all these rantings. Really felt like yelling all sorts of vulgarities and curses at my marketing notes. Which I think people will think that I am crazy since my notes are inanimate objects and they have no feelings and wont reply me. At all.

On to a happier note. =)) My family had another interesting conversation yesterday.

Mummy (Talking to Jacqueline): Eh! Your phone bill very expensive leh. $100+. Send until 2000 sms. I go and deduct from your bank account ah?

Jacqueline: But I no money le lah.

Me (Innocently laughing behind my laptop)

Mummy: Eh! You also dont laugh hor. Your phone bill also very expensive leh. Outgoing calls already 300 minutes .....

Me (Cutting in): Okokokokokok, noted.

Hey bo bian mah, if I dont cut in, next time you guys cannot call me and I cannot call you then it will upset the universe balance ok?

Jacqueline: Why not you give us the new prepaid card? Pay $28 but can get over $100 value.

Me: Where got such good thing one?

Jacqueline: Got lor. Somemore you send 10 sms in a week then they give you 5 sms free.

Mummy and me: You think enough for you is it?!?!?!?!?!

Consider the fact that she can actually send until 1000 + sms in a month, I highly doubt it will suffice her. Jacqueline also very funny lor. Haiz...

So we went out yesterday to shop becoz I am damn bored of marketing. I got a very very very chio earphones.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

.
.
.
.

Is damn chio lah!! The colour is peach pink. And the entire headset is in pink!!! I really got my pink headset le. The one that I got last time was a total rip off. Just use for like a week only and the wire disconnected. Hmmm.. speaking of which, where did I dump that thing? Aiya, dont care also le lah. Plus this "GUMY" seemed very familar to me when I bought it.. Hmmm.. Nvm.. See if I can remember it later.

My aunt just returned from Istanbul, largest city in Turkey. I want to go there too!! Ok I also dont know what to do there anyway. I just say that for the sake of saying and I really want to travel. But I am so not enthu about going to China though. She got us a bracelet each and it's supposed to be a lucky charm. Turkish believe that the "eye" thingie can ward off evil or something. So ya, it kind of look like an eye. And the best of all, SHE GOT MINE IN PINK. =))

Jacqueline and I decided on this Canon PowerShot E1 camera after seeing it in Courts. Not bad lah, it's light, 10 megapixels, face detection and very very affordable. Mummy gave the green light but she is not sponsoring us for that. =(( But this chio camera's design got cotton pink!! So ya, hence we decided on this one.

Yayness!! Cant wait to get my hands on it.

Ok now, back to marketing. I think I will try studying it for awhile. If really cannot get in, then I shall move on to POM.

PS: Oh ya the "GUMY" right is one of the mystery prizes I gave out when working as a promoter. No wonder....

2009-02-19T17:21:00.004+08:00

FINAL EXAMS STARTS TMR !!!

And the first paper is Macroecons. Damn sian lah. I re-did the Mid sem test for Macro and I realised that...

I COULD HAVE GOTTEN THAT FRIGGIN "A" FOR THAT PAPER !!!

Oh my 天, if you can tell, obviously I am not very happy about it and I was like whining to everyone at home how I could have done well if I werent that complacent and didnt really study for that paper. Not to mention carelessness, yes carelessness. This Achilles' heel of mine never failed to show up during exams ever since I started to sit for exams which was back in Primary 1. Ok, I shall make full use of the 2 hr tmr to do the paper properly.

And then another annoying fact is that, I think the answers I wrote for Mid Sem were exactly the same as the answers given by my tutor. Like what the hell. I think my tutor wanted to mark me down or what and it's not that she never do so before. What justifies my claim?

I did the paper without doing revision first and naturally the answers will be like 10% more or less similar to what I wrote during the paper. And when I refered to the answers, my points are there !!! I could have gotten like 5 to 8 marks more lor. Which could have gotten me at least a B. Ah !!!!!! Aiya, whatever lah. Over le anyway. Going to chiong for the paper.

But now, I have a problem with myself. Abit weird but ya, I study until dont feel like studying anymore. Ok truth to be told, I have been studying Macro for like the past 3 days becoz I am very very scared that I will not get a "B". So I have been studying and studying the 13 chapters for at least 3 to 5 times. Hopefully can get the information into my pea sized brain. Haiz.

So I became bored and decided to play with my web cam =))

Disclaimer: I dont always cam whore ok.. Just that I am damn damn bored of studying, period.

I told you I was bored from all those studying =pp And for those who never seen me in spectacles, NAH, see le lor.

Angeline returned from school and so I dragged her to play with me. =pp

I curled my hair with the curling tong I found collecting dust in my closet. So purely out of boredom, I went ahead and used it. Not much for a difference bah. I am now waiting for my hair to grow and will consider if I will want it curled.

I got study hor.. Dont see I play play and never study. I finished studying for FnB and abit on POM. Quite ok le leh. And yes, I die die also dont want to start studying for Marketing. Hate that subject =xx

Ok. back to studying.

2009-02-16T14:14:00.004+08:00

Oh my god...

I just banged the back of my head onto the edge of my bed due to misjudgement on my part when I am attempting to lie down.

Now my head hurts and I cannot type properly.

How to study ?!?!!??!!?!?!?

Lucky for me, my F&B notes are out.

Shit lah... Damn pain >.<

2009-02-15T18:55:00.010+08:00

Happy post-Valentine's Day to all !!

Thanks to the noble priest St. Valentine can we have a most romantic day of the year. Based on what I know, under the rule of some evil emperor in Rome, there were many wars or some sort of violence. Then the emperor could not get enough men to join the army, leading him to believe that the reason was becoz the men did not want to leave their families. And so, being so unreasonable, he cancelled all marriages and engagements.

St. Valentine and a priest friend of his secretly helped couples to get married but in the end, he got caught and death as punishment. He suffered martyrdom on the 14th day of February.

Haiz, so sad right? Help people get married but then died in the end. So anyway, that's random and FYI if you are interested.

Valentine Day dinner with Iguides people at Swensen's. Met up with Yingqi first before getting Toblerone as my gift to them. Ohoh and I got a rose.. =pp

Valentine's Day yesterday was much enjoyable for me. And Louis, thanks so much for planning such an unconventional way of celebration. Thanks for everything, from the preparation of the food to the gift. And not forgetting, thanks for accompanying me to sit on the sand and forgoing your sleep due to numerous insect bites. =x I really like sitting together though I tend to space out alot.

Yup, and I dont think we will be seeing each other soon due to study break, exams and he is typically going overseas straight away after exams lah. And then there is his work which is like 9 hrs/day, 5 days week. Oh well. See how it goes.

I will be an idler for the 3 weeks after exams before heading off to China. Might as well since I am always working during holidays. Scarcely I like being an idler and do not find the need to look for any work. =pp

So now, I shall go back and try to do some revision.

All the best for exams !!

TTFN.

The flower actually bloomed. It was such a pleasant thing to see when I woke up.

Today when I reached home, it bloomed more. Going to make it dry and use as bookmark soon.

Thanks alot

Something random done by Edmund

Thanks for a memorable day ... =))

2009-02-11T20:13:00.005+08:00

Just a random thought when chatting online with a friend. She asked me what do I want to achieve in life. Then I start to think, what do I really want in life?

Do I really want to be a career woman who climb up the corporate ladder or a housewife who will be there for her family?

Who is going to be my future spouse?

Can I get married by 24 and have my first child by 26?

Will I have 1 or 2 children, boys or girls?

How am I going to raise them?

Where do I want to retire?

And lastly, where do I want to die?

Maybe the last question is abit too far fetched lah hor. But then ya, then I did research right, and I found a few pictures that reflect partly what I really want.

I want to graduate from a university.

I want to get married here =pp

Then, I will have 1 boy and 1 girl

I want to be both career woman and housewife.

I will teach them to the best of my ability

I want to retire here. Somewhere I can enjoy a nice breeze

Lastly, die here =pp

I am so day dreaming of the future le lah. Omg ... Okokok, I should stop that now. Whatever will happen will happen. Shallnt think so much now. =))

And thanks you know who for editing my blogskin. =))

It's until today I decided to go get a proper pink camera. Here's a few that I have shortlisted.

All look so cool right? And the best part is, they all come in pink. (^-^)

So now I am thinking if I should wait for the IT fair from 12 March to 15 March or I should just get it now. Of course waiting till the fair is better but then I dont like to go to very crowded places like fairs.

I am still getting one of them nonetheless. =))

2009-02-08T22:11:00.003+08:00

Photos taken with Dawn when we were shopping yesterday. I really really like this place as it has one of the most beautiful view I have ever seen in Singapore and ya, it's quite quiet. Some of you may know where it is but for those who dont, I am not going to say where is it. =x Actually with the background and everything, you should roughly know where is it already.

And ya, this will be the location I have chosen to go on Thursday. Slowly, guess bah. =p

2009-02-08T14:10:00.002+08:00

I think I have got a new record for myself.

For this CNY period, I have eaten yu sheng for 5 times. =x And the number of "yu" or salmon I had actually consumed were less than 10 pieces. Everytime when tossing the dish or whatever you call it, I will be like saying, "I want salmon." Since it was supposed to like make your wishes come true or something, apparently it's not working well lah. Becoz I never get my salmon. Oh well.

I like to eat salmon raw and naturally sashimi is one of my favourite food. However, I just came to realise that there are actually such thing as horse sashimi. There's this show on tv that showed the dissection of the horse. And it's very disgusting lah. The very big horse was skinned and I could see the flesh and veins until I have no appetite for lunch.

The Japanese called it sakura or sakuraniku. The method of eating is either by eating it raw or by yakiniku which is some kind of bbq. Omg..

I know that in some countries eating horse is acceptable but I still dont know how can anyone kill some living animals which can be a companion and help mankind in doing work. Likewise for dogs. And to think that I am going to China next month. Very afraid that they will serve me dog meat without my knowledge.

If they do, I am so going to kill them.

=))

2009-02-06T21:46:00.002+08:00

I am going shopping tmr with Dawn ~~!!

Hahahaha!! Makes me very happy at the thought of it.

Ok, I have to report to school tmr at 8:3o am. Yes, on a Saturday -.-" However, breakfast is treated by lao shi. So I am perfectly fine by it. =)) And presentation of our proposal for the new Chinese website for >60 design centre to the director and lecturers of Design school. A bit nervous lah now... =x

Not to mention, must wear formal and heels.. My legs.. =((

Nvm, shopping is on the list for tmr =D

2009-02-05T15:04:00.005+08:00

Life's so unfair !!

I have got 2 humongous pimples, side by side, on my left cheek. Technically one is bigger than another, but then still, why must 2 come out at the same time ?!?!?!?!?! And they dont seem to be going away anytime soon. Irritating~~

Enough of my random rantings...

So ya, I am still going to school, sad enough. Just had marketing oral test, Jap and French role play. I think Mr Png (For the very few times, I remembered my tutor's name), was rather pek chek with us during the marketing test. For some reason I dont know why, I came to know that there's a marketing test the next day. Must be I am blur or what. Then I had to cramp like 12 lectures in my brain in less than 24 hours. -.-" This had taught to be more aware when I have tests and exams. Talking about tests and exams dates, I still havent really go find out the details for my final exams. Mental note to self: Go find out about the exam timetable. I hope I did ok for that test and ya, there's many questions I answer it all ~~anyhow~~ in a very unrelated to marketing way.

Classic question: What is marketing?

Classic answer: Go to market and buy fish, meat and vegetables.

Not wrong leh technically. According to Princeton University, it is shopping at the market. This is one of the 3 definitions they gave. My mother also asked me to go marketing with her. Oh well, too bad we cannot use that as an answer.

Moving on to my Jap presentation. I really had enjoyed myself with my group lah. They are like a fun bunch of people and always very "on" to do things. And rehearsals will always have lots of laughter becoz of the silly things we do. Our play was supposed to be humourous btw. Everyone there really put in lots of effort in memorising the script and making of the props. And kudos to my group leader, Kenneth. He re-typed the script everytime there's changes made and emailed to everyone of us and the number of sms he sent to us reminding us of meetings and stuff was a lot. Yet, he still have the energy to care about our welfare. A very good leader he was. And thanks to my fellow group mates, Andreas and Syafiqah. =))

Here's my Jap group. Kenneth was so funny that he insisted on a group picture. And dont judge me by my hairstyle. I had to do that for my roleplay and I AM VERY MATURE.

Next was my French roleplay with Sijie as my partner. She was very scared about forgetting her lines. I felt kinda of bad becoz I had the easier lines and she had the longer and more difficult lines. Our conversation was very normal and not much props used. Hopefully can do well in it bah. Amazing race in France is next week and I dont feel like going. Hmmm... nvm... I will just go and have with my group over there. =))

That's basically my school life.

I am very happy that everyone at home now is happy. My parents are no longer ~~quarelling~~ upset with each other. Jacqueline finally got better in terms of her attitude towards studying and Angeline, as usual, insists that she will do better than me in studies and drives me crazy all the time. Back to normal again and it feels good to me. =)) Kinda of miss the Sunday marketing (see! see!) outing. I just realised that we were always busy with our own work or going out with friends. So it's normally just my mother with either Jacqueline or Angeline. Hmmm.. I shall make time aside on Sunday. Dont ask me out on Sundays ah!! LOL.

For a day or two, we had silence between the both of us which kind of scares me. Then in the end, it was the situation of waiting for each other after we talked about it. And I had ~~also realised~~ known all along that the problem lies with me. I promise to step out of the shadow soon. So ya, we are ok now. =)) Ohoh and he passed his BTT. =))

Really a happy girl these days. =))

I will be a very very happy girl IF MY PIMPLES ARE GONE !! =X

2009-01-28T23:06:00.001+08:00

No mood to go school

Still no mood to go school

I dont want to go school !!!

But I still want to meet my dearest friends leh..

*dilemma*

2009-01-27T16:12:00.009+08:00

I am feeling so accomplished now. =))

That's becoz I just finished my POM presentation slides. Yay! I am so disciplined. (^-^)

I shall blog now, my CNY reunion and CNY Day 1.

Reunion was last Sunday and I slacked at home before heading out to my maternal family for lunch. I actually thought of tidying up my room but then failed terribly lah. Plus, there's nothing much to tidy I guess. =x Yup, so had lunch there and didnt ate much becoz later at night I had reunion dinner in some inaccessible restaurant with my paternal family. I was required to dress up so ya, I looked very weird!!

The food in the restaurant wasnt that exactly nice compared to the previous restaurants we went and the service wasnt that commendable. We had to ask for the bill for like how many times. Wah~~ So much for a restaurant in Raffles Place area.. Hmmm.. Ya I think was around that area. And the yu sheng did not have a lot of salmon lah.. but there's a lot of deep fried salmon skins 0.0

Angeline and I. Jacqueline was at the back. Can never seem to get a picture with her

The yu sheng with my grandmother and aunt in the background

Shark's fin soup with lots of beansprouts in it

This is nice ^-^

Moving on...

My mother literally pulled away my blanket in the morning of CNY. Considering the fact that I slept like around 12:45 am the previous night, waking up at 7:30 am in the morning doesnt sound humane to me. Ya I know, when I am chionging projects that time I can sleep like at 1 or 2 am and wake up at 6:30 am, but that was different.

Showered and dressed up (again!) and headed off to my paternal grandparents' place. Wished everyone there happy new year and collect angbaos. =)) Next, will be visiting my lao gu's family(that's granduncle in dialect, I think). So wished everyone there happy new year and got even more angbaos. Hehe !! As we were on a tight schedule, we were there for like 20 - 30 minutes then we went off to my lao yi's house.

On the way there, there was this very jialat traffic jam. There was many church goers (on a CNY Day 1?? 0.0?) and then so many cars parked illegally, making a two lanes road to one lane only. And I really cannot tolerate female drivers. Hmmm.. let me re-phrase. Female aunty drivers. Yes yes. Everyone knows that desperate times call for desperate measures. Since everyone was driving onto the curb in order to get through, why cant she do the same? She cant possibly squeezed her Toyota when there's like my aunt's car and another illegally parked car in a 2 lanes road. Then becoz of her, the whole traffic was jammed up and my aunt then let her go through first. And the best part was, SHE NEVER EVEN THANK US. Hmmm.. then I looked at the driver and ya, aunty mah.. Nevermind one. I am not saying aunty drivers are like that lah, I am sure there's nice ones though. =))

Reached my lao yi's house after spending what seemed to be a long time in the car. And ya, more angbaos!! =)) Lucky there's a lot of people there at that time. Some relatives whom I never see before were there too. Hahaha !! So I just wished them happy new year and got angbaos.

Left around 12:30 pm to collect lunch from this malay shop in Katong. Their food was delicious lah. I never ate at the shop before and my aunts said that it wasnt as good as they used to have, so I reckoned that it must be even better eating at the shop itself. Hmmm.. If there's any chance to eat at Katong, I want to eat there. =))

During lunchtime, my lao gu and his family came down. And I saw two of my very adorable cousins, Nigel and Nixon. And I feel that it's time to introduce someone,

Here is my daughter, Nicole.

Isnt she such an angel? She was dressed in total pink (which is my favourite colour =D). Aiya, ok lah. In case any one of you shocked or what, Nicole is one of my cousins but I went around telling people she is my daughter. =pp Nigel and Nixon are her elder brothers and they were so active lah. They kept on jumping around, running and fell down countless of times. Then I will be like saying "obigood, run somemore lah". But nontheless, they were so adorable lah. Nevermind, next time next time ...

I took an afternoon nap then have to get ready to go to my maternal side le. Changed and at around 5 pm we left. Met up with my cousins there and had steamboat for dinner. Plus, some of them really can talked rubbish lah. Didnt know that. Hmmm..

Went over to my ah yi 's house after that and I got bored. So I got Yingqi to call me and we met up under the void deck since we were like so near each other. So chatted till like 10:40 pm or so then she went home. Went back to my aunt's place and watched them played Blackjack till like 11:10 pm then went home. Watching them play reminded me of that time during open house when Yesheng and Yongliang played Blackjack. It was so funny lah. (^-^)

That's basically what happened for CNY Day 1.

Angeline said I looked sleepy and she took evidence of it

I had to entertain her ...

She thinks she's funny ...

My very adorable cousins, Nigel, Nicole and Nixon

They made me take photo again

Ok, this was spontaneous

Sisters forever !!

That's all. Now I am at my aunt's house and going out for dinner later. Hopefully wont be home late as tmr I have got class at like so early at 9 am. Sian...

Bye!! =D

2009-01-25T23:54:00.000+08:00

HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!

\(^-^)/

2009-01-25T12:30:00.001+08:00

seriously,

must they choose today to quarrel?

i really dont know what they were thinking...

2009-01-23T17:55:00.002+08:00

Finally! The day I have waited very very long for is here! The day when all the project submissions are due and gone.

I suddenly feel like I can finally see the light.

I have being feeling very stressed for the past weeks and then everytime I gave the sian sian face. And also, I have been grumbling, complaining and showing attitude to many people. If I have offended anyone, please forgive me ya? It was purely unintentional.

Oh well, might as well everything ends now too. Chinese New Year is coming!! And much thanks to chionging projects, I havent bought some of my clothes and MOST IMPORTANTLY, my shoes. Nevermind, tmr shall be last minute shopping to get all my things ready. Yes yes. That is very important.

I think tonight I shall do something about my house. It so totally do not have any festive feeling to it lah. Last time, my father will hang something like decorations like that on the wall which gave off a very warm feeling of the season. But then, I also cannot blast Chinese New Year songs becoz it will irritate everyone and burst their eardrums. So ya, no festive mood. To make things worse, there's not enough goodies at home lah! My mother apparently did not buy enough lor. Everything was gone already. My sisters can really eat sia. Now then I know. 0.0 Ok, if I shall get my mother to buy more. And no bak kua!!

So ya, I am so looking forward to Chinese New Year. Especially the outings after that. Like 1ko5 visiting and Log Comm visiting. Yes yes, it will be very very fun.

Ok I shall end off now. =D

2009-01-15T08:42:00.002+08:00

Hello~ I am back to blog again.

Dont expect another post anytime soon so appreciate this post !! Haha!

Yesterday was our first outing together. =)) Although it was just watching a movie and dinner (in celebration of BB's brithday) together with his friends, I really really enjoyed myself and in his company. So ya, I was a very happy and contented girl yesterday. =))

I am also very touched by his action yesterday for sending me home all the way back to Bedok. And I know from Bedok to Sengkang isnt a short distance apart. But then again, thanks for everything and I promised to be smiling again when all my studies commitments are over. =))

So that's about it, for those of you who want to know. The rest are secrets. =p

2009-01-13T10:19:00.002+08:00

Wah~~

Nowadays damn damn busy until I do not have the time to blog.

PS people !!

Ok so ya, TP Open House was last week for like 3 days. This meant no schools, tutorials and lectures (^-^) for 3 WHOLE days. Yay! =)) I just treat it like a break from all the projects and deadlines and ya, to take a breather from it all. So I had fun for the entire 3 days. My schedule was very standard. Before the event started, I will be doing admin with like Chloe the most. Then we can crap rubbish until sometimes some other main comms joined in. Hee! Then after that was either at ITAS or Engine school to do sai kung work. Like counting of bags and transporting them. But it was really fun lah to be working with the Log comm people becoz they were very full of rubbish. =))

Oh oh, and I became a tour guide too! Yup yup, it was quite ok. It's just bringing them around the school and showing how wonderful TP is. And I spent 1 hour listening to talks in Engine lah. Like very sian lor. No offense or what but ya, I am very very sian. I think the Eguide who was with me can tell I very sian at that time. =x

Jam and Hop was like so friggin happening and fun lah. Everyone was like dancing and the atmosphere was really nice. Really enjoyed myself. =))

I shall blog about Sentosa next time since class is starting soon.

Oh and one last thing, something which a certain someone wished to see here.

I know I did not sound convincing to you yesterday when you told me how you feel. I still have the barrier inside of me and I really cannot and dont know how to open up to you. Ya, but then again thanks for understanding and trying to help me get over it. =)) What I want to tell you is that whatever you feel for me is the same way I feel for you and I will remember 12.o1.o9. =))

And I also have confidence we can make it to 14o2o9 =))

2009-01-13T00:10:00.002+08:00

I am very very very happy today !!

=))

Updates on IGuides soon ..

After projects ...

2008-12-31T14:31:00.004+08:00

Omg! Can you believe it?

2008 IS ALMOST OVER !!!

It's like damn fast lah. Ok, it always seems this way when the day is like approaching December or December. And when January begins all over again, I will be like so sian and say, "Here's another year. Again." Yup but whatever. I am going to try to enjoy the countdown.

Reflecting upon what I did for the year, can say it's quite productive bah. And of course, the wonderful long break I have after my Os the previous year all the way till April. I worked at the airport and made many many wonderful friends and colleagues. Thinking back really made me miss the times when we took breaks together, sharing gossip, getting into troubles with the management and customers and blah blah blah and finally, sticking out through it all. =)) Yup, happy memories back then.

Then I almost remembered the day I received my O levels results which was somewhere around February? I was damn nervous when I entered the school. I cant even sign my name properly in the register lah. But when I saw my results, I was like practically screaming becoz my L1R4 no L1R5 is less than 20. Phew!! Hahaha!

So I applied and got into Temasek Polytechnic. Orientation day was like somewhere in April, and I got into Class 1ko5 together with Prin. Very happy that we both got into the same class. =)) Hey, we have been like classmates since Sec 1 lah. I have also met many new friends then. Speaking of my class, I really cherish them. They are a fun bunch of people and we never really have an internal conflict before. Unlike some of the classes I know. Hence, I really really appreciate it. Thanks a lot guys! I really couldnt thank them enough. Although next year we will all be in different class, I hope we can still meet again in Sentosa ya? =))

And I had also made friends with many people in the school. Take PICC for example. I am alone in the class as no one I know got in. So ya, sitting there and pretended to be invisible. Then, I started to make friends with Dawn and Amanda. They two rocks man! Coz they always know what the teacher is talking and able to explain to me. Of course, there are other classmates who are funny and ya.. Actually I only became close to the rest after a BBQ session. Nonetheless, I am still lucky to be chosen to be in this CDS so ya, I am happy. =)) China internship is next guys.. Coming soon..

So besides PICC, there are also mentoring which I have nothing much to say lah becoz I keep on pon-ning. Feel rather guilty leh. Alamak!

Then there's IGuides. I dont know what went through my mind when I am registering as a sub-comm for IGuides. But then, I think I am lucky to get into the sub committee as everything is so so fun. The people there are nice and friendly and not to mention the things that we do are so cool lah. =)) And within the Logistics, there's always 木头人 who will brighten up my day whether during IGuides events or outings. Their plain silliness and jokes and much love, care and concerns made me feel warm and familiar when I am with them. Though we may be of different schools, courses and year of study, it's amazing how we can click together and forever moving everywhere together. Haha! Love them lots...!

Oh oh, and F1. Yup, that's the most fun temp job and experience I ever had..

This basically concluded my year for 2009, in a very very brief summary. Can say I have experience happiness. sadness, anguish, frustration, emo, love and friendship. Really really feel lucky. =))

Anyway, Happy New Year in advance to you. =))

2008-12-25T15:03:00.014+08:00

MERRY CHRISTMAS Y'ALL!! =))

Finally, the day when I can eat turkey with this yummy gravy (whatever that is) and a slice of chocolate log cake. I can only get to eat these like once a year lah, more rare than abalone or shark's fins and bird's nest ok. So back off. =)) As usual, my family and I will be gathered in my aunt's beautiful house and have our Christmas feast. We usually can eat for like an hour or so becoz the turkey is damn big lah. I shall let the pictures do the talking.

(Ok blogger now sucks becoz I cannot upload the pictures)

(& now Vista sucks becoz ... Nvm Vista sucks)

(Vista sucks becoz my IE did not respond at all)

Here are the pictures =))

Turkey !!!

A bottle of wine... no flask... aiya whatever lah

More turkey (^-^)

Ham & Turkey

A glass of red wine really complements the meat =))

See the gravy besides the turkey? That's delicious !!

And for dessert, a choice between

A chocolate log cake

A fruitcake with icing

I dont know leh like both so nice leh. Ok then I shall take two. (^-^)

A very satisfying Christmas lunch indeed. And always leave it to The American Club to come up with a very good turkey, ham and mashed potatos. Oh yes, their oh so delicious gravy =)) <3

Presents exchanging session after Christmas lunch. I did not know what to get as I didnt request for anything except that we die die must have turkey for the feast. And so, they got me these,

A very cute Christmas bag

4 Monokuro Boo files

A Fuzzy Couture's Chihuahua Keychain

FYI Sweetfrostings colour palette from USA

Heh... Very happy =)) On a random note, the swimming pool looked emo to me.

Oh well, that's my wonderful Christmas so far. And I heard we will be having turkey chao fan for dinner. Yes ah!! More turkey!! =))

Merry Christmas Again!!! =))

2008-12-19T21:16:00.003+08:00

Shopping with Yingqi today was quite productive. I have got 2 dresses =)) Very happy girl today. Lunched at Swensen's and had my favourite sticky chewy chocolate. Ya, fats okokok. I really enjoyed going out with her today lah. Trying on different dresses and having heart felt talk with one another. =)) Rueychyi, you will regret for not joining us. LOL!

The dresses I got

I went to ICA and replaced my IC today becoz I gave up on the fact that anyone will actually mail my IC back to me. I still have to go through interview which was damn redundant becoz I seemed to have repeated myself again and again. -.-" Damn waste of my time.

Some of you may be wondering why I decided not to go OTCW training. Hmmm.. Ok. I am very very tired on Wed and not feeling very well. Plus, I last minute no interest in becoming a GL. I am in IGuides sub comm and very happy to be part of 木头人. So ya, I dont wish to join in anymore events le.

Anyway, I saw something interesting when checking my inbox.

Wonder who's responsible for this? Nope, it's not IGuides ok.. At least I think so =p

2008-12-19T02:10:00.002+08:00

Here are the photos and video I made

Gift from Yingqi

Gift from BB

2008-12-17T21:25:00.002+08:00

Chalet yesterday was fun !!!

It was quite successful, I can say. We were so lucky that our room was on the first level. This meant that we can have our steamboat outside instead of inside the room. =))

So ya, checked in, get the guys to wash the feet before jumping on the bed and lazed around in the room for awhile before we headed off for lunch at Subway and NTUC for grocery shopping.

After the shopping, we headed back to the chalet and I learnt how to play Silent game. It was quite confusing at first but gradually, it's damn fun. =)) Watched movie and then people started to come in which meant STEAMBOAT TIME!!

I dont know how they set up the whole thing lah. I think I am doing some thing else at that time. So ya, we carried the food outside onto the table and cooked it first. While waiting, we exchanged our gifts for one another and ya, I gave my gift to Gabriel and received one from BB. =)) Thanks to BB, for the cute Hello Kitty notebook and the music box. =))

The steamboat was quite alright although we had to squeeze a little but that's what made it so fun. After dinner, we took out our log cake, put candles on it and sang happy birthday to Gabriel as he is turning 19 in like a few more days only. Happy Birthday Gabriel !!

After everything and clearing up, we slacked abit before heading out to E!hub and found out that no more movies were showing. Why is it that it promised late night movies and then at just midnight, there's no more movies shown? Hmmm. So in the end, we took a stroll along Pasir Ris beach and returned to the chalet to watch our own movie instead.

After the movie, most of us were like quite dead already including me, so we slept until like 6 am or so? Woke up and talked for awhile before heading to the showers and then we played assholes daidi until check out time.

So we headed to KFC for brunch after that and Yingqi and Jiaying decided to do the most gross thing ever which I decided not to post it up here. School was next on the list before I can go home. So yeah, projects!!!

I am so happy that all of us turned up for the chalet and have fun together. We should so meet up soon. I MISS YOU ALL ALREADY!!! =))

Pictures will be uploaded as soon as Aaron emailed me.

2008-12-12T11:04:00.002+08:00

So now, I shall rejuvenate myself and prepare for the next half a semester.

2008-12-07T16:33:00.000+08:00

2008-11-30T14:39:00.003+08:00

Well, I am taking a break now from mugging and yup, I shall blog.

IGUIDES PACKING DAY WAS FUN !!! AND WE PACKED OVER 10000 BAGS IN RECORD TIME !!!

Wanna say good job to everyone who helped!!

Ok on Friday which was the pre-packing day, we had to like carry boxes and assembled them accordingly. Then we also had a dry run of the production line in which BB and I competed to see who can do the fastest. Which, naturally of course, I won. =p Then the main comm and sub comm had planned a surprise birthday celebration for the November babies which includes yours truly. =) Haha! It was so sudden lah especially when my birthday was over like how many weeks le.

Kinda of like tonned with Yingqi and Rueychyi as we could not sleep due to a certain reason. In the end, we slept in a place in TP we dont know how to describe. I woke up at 6 am and saw many stars in the sky. It was nice and very peaceful.

On the day itself, everything went smoothly. And I had my first ride in a truck when we were clearing up =)) When transporting things back to SAR, I sat on the trolley from TCC to SAR worh. Haha! Credits to BB who pushed the trolley. Have dinner with Log comm before returning.

I have 4 scandals le. -.- " But I wont deny that I was very happy during the 2 days =)) We must have more outings.

All I need is answers from you...

2008-11-24T21:06:00.002+08:00

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY JASMINE !!! =D

I am so happy to see him twice today leh!! =D

A very happy girl today =D

2008-11-15T21:22:00.003+08:00

Today's LRM Sport's Day was damn drama and a shocking and bad experience for me.

I shall not go into details about what had taken place as it was too bad a memory to remember.

1 thing to say to the LRM Year 3 senior girl (By saying senior, I am already being very nice),

You think you said thank God it's not you and it's alright with us?

Hello? It's like our friend is bleeding and got to be sent to CGH and you still have the nerve to say such thing?

God should let you be in her place instead!

So just shut the bloody hell up yeah?

Senior very big is it. Just fuck off.

Nvm, I know 1ko5 is the champion as both fustal and captain's ball, we were leading.

GO 1K05 !!!

Pray that Serena be alright !!!

2008-11-10T19:45:00.001+08:00

Whahahaha! This few days damn fun man. =))\

Let's talk about today first. Wah. The Mr NT is a very funny teacher. He can make a joke out of every macroeconomics theory or whatsoever. That was the best lesson I had so far in TP. Too bad he's only a relief teacher. Sian!!

"Always choose the longest answer for MCQ"- Mr NT

So ya, went for GL interview after macroeconomics lecture and that's so last minute decision lah. And then they asked the same questions blah blah blah. Candice, Jasmine, another 3 more ppl and I went out to do a cheer. And it went like this:

"Akira bom bom bom

Akira go go go

Akira bom Akira go

Akira CHIONG AH"

And I think the interviewers got shocked dao.

I still dont think I will get to be GL.

Yesterday was 木头人 gathering at Singapore Flyer. At first hor, see the email like so many people very enthu then turn out only 6 attended.

Wah! Last minute play pangsei game leh.

Nonetheless we still have fun eating at Popeye's =)) Not to mention the 冷笑话 we exchanged. Poor Bebe always kena shoot by his own words. And thanks Louis for the sugarcane drink and your white carrot cake which I never touch. =))

I hope 木头人 will still have gathering sia. Looking forward to it. =))

Some pictures to share

A snapshot from 1ko5 sports' day

木头人

Bebe's mashed potato which I found the size to be ridiculous

When waiting for my food, ...

2008-11-04T22:13:00.002+08:00

I AM OFFICIALLY SEVENTEEN !!!

Yes, after waiting for 365 days from my previous birthday, I am proud to say I have moved on from sweet 16. =))

At least this year I have a proper birthday celebration apart from last year. I cant believe I spent my sweet 16 studying Biology.

THE HORRORS ...!

So ya, I would like to thank 1K05 for their very surprise birthday cake and their cute little birthday card. I would also like to thank Tricia and Prin for the Fish & Co dinner, the turtle carousel cake and the quietest birthday song ever. We did that so that the staff there wouldnt suddenly come and bang their pots and pans singing happy birthday. And many thanks to those who texted or friendster-ed me happy birthday.

Thanks a lot!!!!

I shall enjoy being 17 and on my next birthday. I shall get my driving license.

=))

2008-11-03T19:49:00.005+08:00

IGuides Training camp is over already !!!

Although it was really tiring doing logistics and station master, I am sure all the sub-comms enjoyed themselves and me too!! =)) There were some glitches during the programmes but it was overall fine lah.

Just that a 2 days 1 night is too short.

Now I am getting the after effects of camp coz I am damn sleepy and feeling the ache in my muscles. Sian!

Everyone really did a good job this time. Main comm, sub comm and normal guides.

Good job! =))

Log comm, go 木头人 =))

IGUIDES FOREVER !

Trust me when I said there were 75 cups of milo

Night scene @TP at 10 pm

When sub comm is sian,

We decide to play with our pets =))

Oh ya and photos from OGL Asia where I worked,

2008-10-29T18:08:00.004+08:00

Yay! I have finally watched High School Musical: Senior Year. =))

The movie was so good until I felt that this was one of the few times I felt my $6 was well spent. Yup, it was. Anyway go watch it quick for those who intended to catch it.

And those who did not want to watch it ...

... GO WATCH IT !!

Lunched at Sakae becoz Ajisen at TM was like erm.. CANNOT MAKE IT. Ok, there was this funny smell when I am just standing at the entrance. And the waitresses were very "welcoming" even though there werent much people. Then when Jasmine and I were ushered to the seats. I looked at the cushioned seat and realised it wasnt exactly that clean. I am damn particular about where I put my butt on. So in the end, both of us walked out of the restaurant and to Sakae.

I am not gonna step inside Ajisen again.

2008-10-27T19:25:00.002+08:00

Heyhey!

So 1st week of school just passed and yeah, I survived!

Woohoo!

Japanese lecture and tutorial were fun and I really enjoyed myself. French was erm.. killing zillions of my brain cells but it's ok now. AND THE REST OF CORE WERE BORING!!!

Yup. That's all.

And can you believe I have completed my Japanese presentation already? Well, except for the fact that I need a book to refer to instead of purely the internet. So yup, basically it's done!

Yippee!

=))

2008-10-20T20:36:00.003+08:00

School had started...

Yet again.

While it was very fun to meet 1k05,

it's the time for studying.
it's the time to choing for projects again.
it's the time for me to stress out again.
it's the time whereby school will end late till 7pm.
it's the time when I have to go back to school on Saturday.

Oh well, I shall take everything in my stride and pray hard to get throught this semester. Everything will be better by the end of Year 1.

With good grades of course.

DHL, Here I come !! =))

2008-10-13T20:59:00.002+08:00

Yay! I have gotten my pay from SGP!! And it's a shame for me to say this but ...

I do not have a good sense of direction.

Yes yes.

Ok a Subway meal costs $3 only.

=))

2008-10-12T11:26:00.002+08:00

Pictures taken on Mentoring Day.

And I got the Best Mentor. Erm ... Ya. I got it. =))

2008-10-10T22:47:00.002+08:00

Iguides sub comm training workshop was fun. Finally, I can do the hand ign song which I found it incredibly difficult during orientation. So after all the fun, we got down to planning games for Iguides camp happening on the 31st Oct to 2 Nov. The games were improvised from the sub comm selection camp and they are going to be so fun. Too bad I am not going to be playing those games.

Working as an event promoter requires a lot from me. Just yesterday, I had to refrain myself from yelling at the customer. Yup, I know patience comes first but think of the circumstances I was in yesterday. My partner came in an hour late. He was sick. And obviously, I had to do most of the things. 4 out of 5 people will ask what their prize was about. I am sure I repeated myself for about 100 times. Some were just plain rude and jumping queues. The queue was never ending. Some didnt speak English. I was having a splitting headache after just 3 hours.

Get the picture?

Actually, I am kinda of scared whenever I have to go to work because I hate having to have so many people at the counters.

Oh well, I will be at it again on Sunday.

Shall take a rest as much as possible =))

2008-10-07T11:11:00.002+08:00

An interesting conversation with my family.

Again!

Some background information. Jacqueline is in Sec 2 and ready to choose her course of study. So my father insisted she take up POA. Well, that's becoz he is an accountant. So do the math.

Mummy: Actually A Math will really help a lot if she enters polytechnic

Father: NO NO !!! Take POA. I can teach her.

Jacqueline: Oh ok ~

Father: Actually, I ask you ah

Jacqueline: 0.0?

Father: What is POA?

Once again, thank you for reading my family's conversation and appreciating our "sense of humour"

2008-10-05T22:02:00.003+08:00

BEING UNDER-AGE SUCKS !!!

Went clubbing with people of BJ and I cannot get into MOS.

The feeling of rejection ...

(0.0)

F1 GATE 1 TICKETING STAFF !!!

2008-09-29T09:05:00.003+08:00

F1 IS OVER !!!

And I have a lot of fun during the past 3 days. So what if there's no one I know at the location I was posted to? I am really glad to know many people and have fun while working.

Day 1 (26/9/08)

It was the worst day for work. Not to mention the fact that it was raining so heavily in the morning, the MRT I was on got stuck twice and I am almost late for work. Luckily for me, there were people being later than I am. =))

So we had briefing and I had absolutely no idea what to expect. There were like so many types of passes to remember. And then Gate 1 was a restricted zone and only certain types of passes can come in.

But I managed to survive the day with help from my co-workers.

Day 2 (27/9/08)

It was not raining but it was BURNING! Gosh! It was so hot that day. So everyone became lazy due to the heat. Yup. I was just hoping that the day would just pass fast.

Day 3 (28/9/08)

Yesterday was the fun-est of all. The whole of Gate 1 ticketing staff took a group photo and I hope I receive the pictures soon. So we talked about random stuff and sang songs. That was until the crowd started to come in and we were busy the whole time. After work, my friend and I went to watch the F1 race. Standing. It was so thrilling and the drivers just whisked past you. I managed to take a few video clips but they werent clear as they were too fast!

A quite memorable day indeed. =))

I want to thank these people for making my work fun and easy:

Ticketing Inspectors (Not in order):

Seok Han

Tania

Ivy

Hidayat

Chua

and the rest of Gate 1 ticketing inspectors (I dont know their names >.<)

Security (not in order):

1 hell of a week just passed!

So working too far away from home isnt the thing for me and it's especially sian when you have to report to Tiong Bahru at like 8 plus am and stay there until 5 pm.

Argh!

And so I managed to pass that 1 week and I will NEVER EVER do anything related to the exam paper checking.

I lost my pass and now waiting for the person in charge to contact me.

More sian-sation.

Just went for Iguides sub com selection camp and I tell you, IT'S SO GOD DAMN TIRING!! Haiz, that's of course when we have to run around the school during the time when NORMAL people are sleeping. I am so dead in the morning and by the time the camp ended. But it was overall a good experience for me.

F1 training after resting for an hour or so. I reported at 1pm which they told me and ended up waiting until 3.30 pm to start the briefing. -.-" And I still dont know how to get to the gate which I am supposed to report to.

Hope that I will figure it out when the day comes.

Good luck to me!!

Me: By bus lor -.-"

Dad: Orh.. They will reopen the roads after the race is over lah.

Me: Ya... o.O

Mum: F1 is go round and round the road one ah?

Family: >.<

Second conversation with my Mum in the car while my Dad, Angeline and I were talking about Olympics. Btw, it was raining heavily.

Dad: There are like 1 million PRC volunteered to participate in the Olympics.

Angeline: Wah! So many ah?

Suddenly,

Mum: Eh, the family never take in the clothing leh!!!! You see, you see!!! *frantically pointing*

Angeline: What if 1 million S'poreans go volunteer leh?

Me: Then I'll start watching NDP parades

Mum: Then bo lang deng chu kua diang si ki loh. (Then nobody at home watch TV alr)

I am back to to blog again. ^-^

I will trackback to yesterday first.

I attended the mentoring workshop yesterday and the speaker was actually blind. I am actually quite impressed by him. Not only did he managed to cramp all the points a 4 hours long talk into his brain, he did not let his disability obstruct him from giving an entertaining speech. He managed to try to make eye contact with the audience although he could not even see us. Ya, there was once when he turned to the side of the lecture theatre and no one was there and he was talking to that particular spot. But no one made fun of him and I am glad.

So yup, it was quite enriching. =))

After the talk, I went to Downtown East to meet up with my family. It started raining and to think I thought of being brave and going to the "Haunted House". Just when I reached the entrance, an announcement was made saying that the park was closed due to bad weather. Ok, very sad.

We went to Ehub and eat chicken rice.

That's all!

~*~

I woke up at 6 am this morning and prepared for work at SEAB.

Yes, during a holiday.

Then we finished work like damn early lah. 0830 to 1200. Not bad not bad =)) Oh, and I also went emo when I realised I have to report to the International Plaza for the F1 job. Ah!!

So Jasmine, Candice and I headed down to Suntec with the intention of having lunch and looking for jobs. The looking for jobs part failed terribly. Then, I called the F1 organiser to ask if there's any vacancy left and he told me to head down to the International Plaza.

The 3 of us went down to Kelly Services and got us the ticket inspector job. Can lah, better than ushering guests. =))

So that's my day!!

=))

2008-08-30T10:35:00.002+08:00

Holidays have officially started!!!!!

Exams are finally over and yes, no more RHT or OB and most importantly, BCS!! =D

Yup, so the exam ended on the 28th and I am freed. Went to get Tricia's presents with Prin and Suk Tan at City Hall before we met up at Vivo. Visited Boost Juice there and it brought back memories when I am a trainee there. =))

Then, we met up with Fiona, Kiat Huei and Ezekiel before heading towards to Siglap and ate at ThaiExpress. As usual, there were very funny conversations which I recalle donly bits and parcels of it. And then we proceeded to Tricia's house and got started on the jigsaw puzzle.

The next day (August 29th), we visited Bedok View. Well, I visited mainly was to keep myself entertained with the concert which really disappointed. Hey, it's Bedok View I am talking about. Met many of Class'07. Lunched with Tricia and Prin after that.

It was quite an entertaining day.

So ya, hope that a tuition BBQ would be organised soon.

Happy Birthday to Tricia and Sok Chin !!!!

Finally 3 papers have ended leaving RHT. Ah!!! Damn irritating!

A review on how I did for OB and today's Intro.

OB- Wah piang! I not sure too

Intro- GOSH!!! I WROTE CRAP LIKE SO THE ENTIRE PAPER

Alter ego: *tsk tsk*

Me: ='((

So anyway, I highly doubt I can get my GPA of 3.5. Sigh. But I am still hoping for a place in the director's list. Hey, it's damn cool ok?

I shall'nt care about Intro. Though I should study a bit (like Lee Shen who seems to be very early for every paper) before the commencement of the paper, I didnt. Instead, I am snacking happily on my strawberry yogurt while "gloating" over the fact that many people were studying.

Alter ego: *evil*

Me: SHUT UP!!

Lunched cum celebration of Lee Shen's damn-belated-birthday at Swensen's. We had an ice cream cake and the waiters and waitresses sang Happy Birthday. We thought that they were going to play the birthday song on the speakers or what. So ya, it was fun anyways. =))

We also had an interesting conversation on whether the guy next able was our RHT tutor and if the two guys on a faraway table were gays.

So ya, that basically concluded my day.

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, LEE SHEN! =))

1ST BLOG YAY!

2008-08-23T12:24:00.003+08:00

Ok this is my first blog of year 2008!!! Seeing that practically everyone in my class has a blog and so I shall jump onto the bandwagon and start a new one.

Much thanks to sister who helped me in setting up of my blog ~~since I have absolutely no idea why blogger rejects my html code TIME AND TIME AGAIN!!!~~

*Cool down...*

So anyway, I am currently in school on a Saturday morning (yes! Saturday + morning at 8 am) to do my CDS test. It was total crap lah. I mean, please, I do not bother about Singapore's economy much less America's. And still want me to translate 10 paragraphs from Chinese to English.

Yes! 10 friggin paragraphs of Chinese financial terms and chimalogy.

*Cool down...*

So now I am in the library together with a group of my classmates together doing the test. Thanks for the fact that discussions could be made for this test if not I sure die.

Recapping on this week, I have been very productive from Monday to Thursday even though it's like a proclaimed "holiday". I have been faithfully waking up at 8 am.

Me: =))

Alter ego: .........

Me: (^-^)

Alter ego: o.O

Me: --.--"

Ok, I watched TV till 10 before beginning my revision and then I concluded,

RHT: Gone with the wind

OB: lalalalalas....

Intro: No choice ve to study

So yesterday was Microeconomics and I ~~did not too bad~~ fairly well for it. I left earlier becoz my nature call was too urgent so I have to answer it first.

Alter ego: lame...

Me: *Take a knife and slash the throat*

So, after the exam, Jasmine, Lee Shen and I went to TM to lunch and I spent $19 bucks on a dictionary which has absolutely no use for me.

Sian..

I am seriously considering refund from Popular.

Now my back was aching very badly. This is the consequence of "gei kiang". Long time never do backward bend then go show off still can.

Alter ego: =DD

Me: *Touches the blade of the knife*

So I shall end off now as my battery is going to be flat soon.

Ciao!

~*~
