Guess what I'm doing now (besides blogging)?

.

I'm listening to 4001 online lecture!!!
It's taught by such an ultra boring lecturer that I've juz to occupy myself with other stuffs to concentrate listening to it (see the irony).
Before blogging, I had painted my toe nails, removed nail polish, repainted my toe nails, painted my finger nails, removed nail polish, repainted my finger nails... Yea, twice manicure & twice pedicure.
Honestly, it's killing me more than Monk Tang in Travelling to the West. Zzz Zzz

Finally term break has come~
Actual things to be done: 4105 assig, 4413 assig, 4475 assig, 4476 assig, 4483 assig, 4490 quiz, hw310 presentation, fyp interim report.
Real things did so far: viewed +10 movies online, had 2 steamboats, went Yunnan Garden mooncake festival, worked hard for Who has Biggest Brain to beat kor2... =.=

Suddenly miss school quite a bit, like wana spend my last year in NTU properly to have some memories before working life. Came on friday to try steamboat in sch for the first time with kor2 n YF. It was so fun!!! We had chicken and mild soup and even korped ingredients frm yong tau fu stall to "cook" them. Some of others in canteen oso ordered them but theirs are really like campfire!

Juz had my second steamboat with YF's gang tonite. We innovated Chinese herbal chicken soup base and put in all kinds of ingredients including maggie mee! Actually taste not bad man as we r all novices in cooking.

Went for mooncake festival at Yunnan garden for first time too. I used to walk to sch twice a day through it and din realise it is rather big! There are 10 game stations and some food stalls.

We went to collect our freebies whch turned out to be free lanterns only. Then we went fishing and YF "fish" a lot using container instead of paper fishnet. CHEATER!!! Then went to shoot balls which i get mostly 0 score. The stall holder v funny all the time announce "zero~~~" "hit~~~" "scored~~~" "try again~~~" "congrat~~~" v loudly in mandarin. Then i kena all zero so paiseh! Went on to kiap marble balls n i did better than YF. Lastly went some mo4 qi4 testing which we did like shit. Tied arms tied legs n there we went like idiots.
Besides games, there are food and DIY lanterns, mooncakes, write wishes, draw lots. After 4 games we exchanged scorecard for clips n sharpener. Okie la, betta than nothing~ >.<

2009-09-26T14:49:00.002+08:00

Went for World Food Fair on Hari Raya with YF for the first time, juz for pure curiosity sake (okie la for sampling and goodie bags too). =P

This year took place at Suntec Convention hall again. On the way passed by Marina Square with car exhibition. F1 is damn hot in town!!!

To our disappointment, not much sampling and all the stalls were conjested with aunties & uncles. Wanted to get some bakkua (was $30+ now $10 for 500g) but so many people!!! We went aimlessly eating around: 1 teppanyaki, 6 otah, 2 mango puree, 10 satays, 2 thai sharks fin soup, 2 garlic bread and ended with 2 waffle ice cream. The sales said buy 1 get 1 free but ended up paying 1 large size for 2 median size and so little ice cream!!! Hmph~

After eating muz do some exercise. Walked all the way to see Esplanade durians~ The place rather empty leh much less than food fair. Behind me is the F1 track and flyer!!! =)

Below us is a mini stage next to the Marina Bay. We took some silly pic and juz lax there la like 2 muachi, before a long walk back to MRT again. ^^

2009-09-19T16:42:00.006+08:00

Both of us din win The Ugly Truth premier but won Whiteout instead. Okie la no shark fin ikan bilis oso can. ^^

Went to Suntec to catch the premier which is really a long walking journey!!! No wonder ppl prefer go Marina watch movie instead. All the things at Suntect r expensive targetting at rich tai tai.

Actually not in mood to catch movie coz next morning quiz. Ended up studying+sleeping inside MRT. Feel super lethagic due to lack of slp nowadays~

We quite lucky spotted new restaurant Just Acia (my spelling is correct)! All their set meals start from $5.90 r so worth the price. U can get main course, miso soup, rice and free flow of drinks n ice cream!!! Drinks: orange juice, peach juice, pepsi, 7-up, mountain dew, root beer, cappucino, cafe mocha, latte, long black etc. Ice cream: chocolate, coffee, strawberry, mint, mango, raspberry, vanilla etc. As a result, we ate like pigs and were late for the movie~

The movie is super boring though~~ Only thing I rmb from it is the shower scene which lasted like max 10s? Maybe both of us r too smart guessed the plot right frm the beginning. I so wana watch The Ugly Truth!!! =<

2009-09-14T00:12:00.006+08:00

Everyone needs to chill sometimes~~~ ^^
Knowing I nv club before, YF decided to bring me to Home at Clarke Quay.

So many delicacies!!! Azabu Sabo is like so tempting lor. There also got Hokkaido, Haagan Daz and Walls pushcart ice creams. YF said they blue ocean sell dirt cheap to attract customers.

We walked along the river to find Home. YF made me walk extra distance (again) to Boat Quay!!! I seriously think he worse direction sense than me, as at least I got 6th sense. Reached Home eventually which appears to be a small, dodgy club with nobody there (no wonder we missed it by walking pass it twice)~ Our tickets show start at 8, we wanted to wait for 1 year anniversary band performance which was told by waiter to be starting at 10. Walked around then came back at 10 another waiter told us it starts at 12!!! Zzz

Pissed off and ended up walking and eating Walls ice cream by the riverside. Then, walked further to explore another side of Clarke Quay where all the nite clubs are. Some highly differentiable ones are: Clinic where ppl sit on wheelchairs n drink from drips and an ancient looking club called the Forbidden City. Reached the other end felt hungry again and ate hotties+drink again (we r pigs).

Tonite saw so many ang moh who were there to drink & chill all over the place. They are like treating it as part of lifestyle: wear shirt n jeans, laid back and relaxed, sip some beer and chit chat. I guess SG really too tensed up till locals dun bother to smell the flowers along the path.

P/S Ended up still a v at clubbing. I so wanted to danz lor, howww~

ADV: The Ugly Truth

Here comes a romantic comedy for all couples~~~

"Men are from Mars as Women are from Venus" Anyone who has dated before will notice the vast difference between man and woman. For instance, your bf can be so clueless about some memorable dates but can appear three minute before you when you text him you are all alone at nite.

Talking about dates, I had one classic spoilt date from a guy met in Friendster many years back. For one, I rarely net date but this guy juz appeared to be really funny and we decided to meetup for a movie. He appeared half an hour late and we went to eat nasi lemak. After a heavy meal, he juz wiped his oily chicken-wing hands on T-shirt. =.= What could be worse is later when we were watching movie, he was consistently breathing heavily near my face and whispering "so hot". No need to say, that was my last time seeing him after the toilet break, as I really detest guys who does not show due respect to female counterparts.

I think we all should go catch this movie to have some tutorials from Mike & Abby on how does the opposite sex think. Certainly, we do no wish to end up with sore hearts by committing some stupid low class mistakes. What's more, we can get to see two eye candies in just one movie!!!

Him?

Or Her? Have your pick! ^_~

Meanwhile, you guys can go play some fun games at the official site here.

Be a fan at the official Facebook page and catch The Ugly Truth when it opens in the cinemas on the 17th September 09!

It's been quite some time before going to Orchard, as my usual hangout is either at the very West or East. Went there to catch G Force to let my hair down. It proves to be a really entertaining movie as Disney movies always are! =D

After the movie, went for a nite stroll with YF and Sweet Talk Grape Champaign Bubble Tea (fall in love with it alr)! Walked about FEP, then passby an adult shop (did a stupid thing there which made me embarrased+guilty), then the new ION.

As one walks into ION, you would be surrounded by nice interior design with theme color: blue.

When he raise up his head, he can see beautiful animated sea creatures under the blue neon light.

The shops there sell high end products targetting expats or white collar high salary workers eg BEBE, Swarovski. A fren used to tell me the shops there all hv themes. To me, not only they sell high end products, they also pay much attention to intricate details which can be reflected by their interior designs, window displays and many sultry posters. In particular, I really like the Swarovski crystal stand on window display with bling blings that can totally blind you! ^^

STRESS!!! Quizzes coming, assignments coming, projects coming, FYP plan coming (altho I did it long ago)... Year four is definately hell!
But worse than hell is something called MATLAB. MATLAB MAKES ME MAD!!! It is everywhere: 4105, 4413, 4475, 4476, 4490, FYP... Yet, I'm still so clueless about it and their HELP doesn't help lor! =.=
On a brighter note, managed to get free premier G Force Tickets from Nuffnang and wandered about Orchard including ION with YF today (more on next entry with pics). Also, I finally managed to get my refund from spree, payment from Adsense and joint website to get free vouchers (those who wan can send email to me)! This kinda counteract the effect of my extravagant spending. =/ Lastly, I'm relieved of something private. PHEWWW~~~ So, overall it's a happy week for me!!! =)
BTW, CITS really CMI la was all ready to print all my notes then POOF...the power went off. Night study in school is fun too although it is not really studying. Think positively now is to enjoy my last year in NTU to fill it up with unforgettable memories~

G-Force

ADV: Movie G-Force

Folks great news, another cartoon movie coming to town!!!

For those who know me well will know I always catch anime or cartoon or disney digital movies like Finding Nemo, Surf Up, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Sharks Tales, Shrek, Garfield, Mulan...
Not only children, adults with a child in their hearts are equally fasinated by such colorful, high resolution movies with interesting and educational plots. Unknowingly, one would end up laughing and crying with the characters for their happy events and misfortunes.
This movie is about one of the cutest animals on Earth - guinea pigs as action starts/spies/agents with the following 4 characters:

A) Juarez - Martial Arts Specialist
"The brains of the outfit. Fluent in English, Spanish and Guinea"

B) Darwin - Team Leader
"Determined to succeed at all costs"

C) Blaster - Demolition Specialist
"An outragous weapons expert with tons of attitude and love for all things extreme"

D) Hurley - Civilian
"Can not stomach injustice, all gut no glory, puts the "pig" in guinea pig"

This chap ought to be my personal favorite coz its super fat n cute n most important it dances! =D In other words, it is most piggy of all the four guinea pigs!!! Seeing its pic juz remind me of someone la~~ (maybe after I apply some image transformations can get Hurley out of his photo already they are like twins lor) I wana WIN tickets to catch this movie with that joker. *pleading imploringly*

Meet the G-Force team here.

Catch G-Force in cinemas 4th Sep 2009!!!

P/S OMG I WON G FORCE PREMIER TICKETS!!! Thank you Nuffnang~ =)

Lots of Food + Little Exercise = Fat Me!!! I shall set my skipping rope into good use, but I really hate to sweat and exercise under the Sun leh. What time does NTU swimming pool close ah, it is still my favorite sport after all these years. Otherwise, is there any interesting and non-tiring exercise? Cannot be I'm the only one getting fatter while everyone is going for RT rite. =.=

BTW, I'm clearing all my 2 design + 5 tech electives next sem which amount to a total of 27 AU! (My last sem will be 9 AU to save energy for FYP.) Gonna be tough man, or woman.

Sorry for the lack of recent updates, just came back from Shanghai this Tuesday nite.
Was there to acc my grandpa for GIST treatment at hospital almost everyday and thus no time/mood to tour around the "Eastern Paris".
I would like to express my gratitue to those who have helped and consoled me during this difficult period as without such encouragement, I couldn't have handled this crisis alone.
* My cousin has taken some pic at Shanghai/Beijing etc during his holiday, would post them later when he returns to Spain. I really need get a better phone with better camera!*

2009-06-10T13:45:00.004+08:00

As promised, some of the food pic inside my SE.

1) Went to Pasta Mania @ CCK the other day. The service is rather slow, or perhaps due to heavy traffic during peak hour. Nevertheless, the food there are splendid.

We had one soup of the day/pepsi/garlic bread each. His is v creamy while mine is a bit sourish and sweet, not bad.

I had my baked rice with loads of cheese. I like melting cheese a lot, can even diy to put on top of sardine/prawns/crab stick then micro, damn delicious tell u.

The pizza oso din fail us, crispy yet tasty. Went dine-in @ Pizza Hut with mum another day and realise their Pizza now is so-so only.

2) Another trip to Bento Box. Like their presentation of food v much, colors, varieties, price... But too bad their food does not taste a fraction of what they seem to be. Guess it will be the last time to visit there as hawker centres sell tastier food at even cheaper price.

Had tom yam this time, v affordable especially if u r student. Lotsa ingredients inside like prawns, sotong, mushroom A, mushroom B, egg... But somehow like all their other pre-heated food, the noodles is one cold lump and the ingredients are not fresh either.

Had a bento box there too which can choose up to 3 combinations. The tempura ebi not bad but the fish tastes really weird. Guess they keep their ingredients for quite long and heat it everytime before serving.

3) Another recommendable place is Penang restaurant @ JP new building. Went with a fren for her birthday then subsequently thrice more with frenz. Their white fish laksa and prawn mee are to kill for and everytime will order them with frenz so can share share ma.

The orange soup base prawn mee with v heavy prawn taste. All prawn lovers would love this!!! To think about it, prawn is most versatile food to be added to rice, maggie mee, chawamushi (not hard to cook at all) and can be fried, steamed, ketchup, BBQ, anything. Send my sympathy to those who cant eat prawns. ^^

Their white fish Penang laksa is another hot seller. I like the spicy/sour/tasty white fish soup base which is v appetising. The downfall is they quite kiam siap with the fish meat, only 2-3 chunks.

Another trip for their prawn mee and laksa.

Their oyster omlette also not bad, quite a lot of oh chee inside and not v oily too.

4) Went to Dian Xiao Er with fren @ Vivo after our free B&J cones. Ordered 4 dishes, 1 rice, 1 soup for two persons damn sinful. Their food taste delicious, ambience v fu gu like ancient China and service is excellent too.

I like their decor with a touch of being at ancient China, one would imagine a swordsman/swordswoman will suddenly pop up somewhere, HAHA. They also serve you roasted peanuts and those old old kind of menu and I ordered their Nu Er Hong to try, taste like...weird.

Their signature big prawn, v fresh and big prawns indeed. Guess all prawns do not taste bad as long as they r fresh ba.

Their sigature dish, roasted herbal duck. Although no crispy skin like Peking duck, it tastes tender and juicy with a hint of herbal, amazingly not oily/bitter too.

The only disappointing dish, dunoe wat improvised tofu with brocolli. A rubbery feel and we cant even finish them.

Fragrant and tasty seafood fried rice with lots of seafood, even have big prawns inside. Actually to fry rice with high standard is not easy at all, normally the most simple task demands a lot of foundation from the chief.

Fish maw soup with mushroom, scallops etc which goes perfectly with the seafood fried rice. Guess all soup are not bad as long as made with fresh ingredients.

Dong Po meat/braised pork meat, which comes from the great poetic man Su Dong Po who likes it a lot. The good thing is we also like it a lot.

Last pic of the day, my new or old hair cut. Love how attentive the hairdresser were while cutting my hair, heh. ^^

2009-05-28T12:48:00.002+08:00

Sorry for the lack of updates, but my blog haven deaded yet. Recently quite suay, my hp hangs screen all the time and now even my lappie oso kena virus!!! I seriously suspect there is a big conspiracy among anti-virus companies, like they set up a virus department purposely to spread virus, then kill them effectively using their own antidotes... MY PC ALWAYS HANGS UPON PROCESSING OF ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE!!!

Anyway, more blog links from my frenz, do support them yea, but mine is still da bez~ Guess there is a recent trend of setting up blogs, hmmm...

A lesson that I have learnt from volleyball:
Do not stare at the ball in your hand, instead, look over the other side of the net and concentrate on setting it off to there!!!

2009-05-20T11:12:00.002+08:00

FINALLY COMPLETED MY IA!!! (at least the assessment part la) Have many things to talk about it but it is not appropriate to show here anyway.

Was thinking of having a relaxing time when my family is overseas thus I have bought Champaign, wine, beer, chocolate etc. In actual fact, I ended up ultra busy with report, logbook and fyp thingy. Yes, I managed to get resources from my fyp senior who is v nice wor. Furthermore, my fyp Prof Foo oso a v nice person. That is really assuring~ ^^

Nowadays, really thinking of getting out of the box, out of this island… Too many thoughts occupying my mind now, too confused, too pressurized. Wana jump onto a turquoise ocean right away and forget about all the endless worries and troubles. Perhaps it is called escapism; perhaps it is the only way to deal with life, as many things are beyond our control.

Many things in this world are unfair, unjustifiable, unreasonable. But the ultimate question is what can you do to it? It is either you have the ability to change it or you just have to accept it as it is. The only way out is to empower yourself to be able to do the earlier, if you wana have a better life.

2009-03-22T22:17:00.004+08:00

We had this @ Bento Box on thursday, not bad & students hv 15% off. I like eating a great variety of food (meat/vege/fruit/seafood) & like attacking food from another plate!!! =)))

On this friday, it marks the end of my korean class @ KCS, NTU. Would miss my lovely teacher, the fun of learning korean and ... most imptly bullying my shifu. =.= Definately going for class outing on Labour's Day!

Learning language is great fun lor!!! English (standard), chinese (standard), japanese (2 yrs @ 3rd lang centre + numerous anime/drama/movie), korean (new)...I hope to learn & master all of them for both practical reason & interest's sake. =)

I had this doll from my cute korean student-teacher, dangling on my hp now with my pi qiu~

My shifu had his boy's version. He's so reluctant to get go of it lor, despite my pleading+extortion+kidnapping. Direct quotation from his sms "Let u have a pic of it since u can't have it. =P" THANKS AH~~

2009-03-14T20:44:00.012+08:00

Found some random food pic in my hard disk, eating is the best therapy!!!=)

Here are some pic from Turf City Ah Yett Restaurant where I went with fren(s) several times. The total damage tat time was about $100 but so worth it!!!

Chinese unagi in Gongbao style, it's a mixture of sweet, spicy & crunchy.

Signature pumpkin crab which is fresh, creamy & fragrant.

Signature salty egg crab, it's fresh but a tad too salty for me.

Da tou, v delicious to gulp down bowls of rice.

Big fat fresh oysters, heard its gd for guys. ;)

Bamboo clams, again a dish to gulp down more rice.

M market seafood platter for 2, had this with YF's gang. A copycat of Fish & Co's but much better IMO.

Omelette with a slice of fish chip.

Korean chicken + fish combo.

Yaki Yaki Bo's teppanyaki, my fren had beef & i had seafood.

Another takoyaki from there. The serving staff there was really frenly, even gib us a receipt to accumulate points since we forget to bring the royalty card.

Homemade pig trotter + bamboo.

Octupus + vege.

Big prawns.

Fish with eggs.

BBQ roasted chicken.

My fav dessert: Mango milk ice.

My new love - donuts!!! Clockwise: Bee, White choc, Dark choc, Tiramisu, Mango, Cappuccino.

More donuts. Clockwise: Oreo, Dark choc, Tiramisu, Dark mirror, Mango, Peanut choc. Had half a dozen donuts for like at least once a week.

Now shall go rush my IA logbook, din hv a time to write it properly & my tutor is coming!!! >.<

P/S What will u do if u hv 50k to make money grow? Let's discuss it @ msn. =)

2009-03-07T23:37:00.002+08:00

Juz feel so depressed recently and the only thing I do is to do more work to free myself from thinking.

NTU EEE infocomm FYP student stabbed prof, slitted wrist n jumped to death on monday, followed by EEE infocomm proj officer hanged to death in his hall on friday. In less than a week, 2 suicidal cases from my major were reported consecutively. Nobody knows it just hurts me so so so much to type all these.

My best pri sch fren, Raymond, had committed suicide in his final yr in TCHS while I was in NYGH. Those were the days we talked abt our ambition to go to the most prestigious schools, to be successful people. Those were the days we sat on same bus to and fro our sec sch (our home were a few blocks away). Those were the days we talked over the phone about things in life...

I used to think that I understand him the most as we had common background/life experiences and shared the same dream. Yet till today, I still cant understand why he had chosen this path. It is always a pain in my heart for not able to save him, to let him die in such a lonely and tragic way. For some reason, he must have felt so troubled and helpless to resort to end his own life.

I had spent a lot of time to accept this harsh truth. In many dreams, his look, his smile, his words are all so vivid. But once I open my eyes, he is no longer in my life. I used to even call his number at night, thinking that I could still listen to his voice at the other end, somehow.

Suicidal is unnatural and heartbreaking to the departed's beloved ones. Indirectly, it leaves a permanent scar and punishes them endlessly for not being able to save him, that day and forever. By not leaving a clue behind his sudden departure and a funeral to bid goodbye, I couldn't get over his death even till today.

2009-02-22T20:03:00.004+08:00

Sorry for lack of update, me is very busy!!! ^^

Actually I have tons of pictures to update inside my handphone (mostly yummy food), but but but I cant find my USB cable!!! It is actually v chui kind from SE till all the wires come out, so I plaster it all over with yellow insulating tape. I dun really gib a damn abt it, as even if electricity leaks, the voltage is too low to kill me anyway.

I lost my phone last week for like...4th time (1st time in toilet, 2nd time at army open house, 3rd time at shopping centre). Luckily my colleagues on same bus, so one of them helped me to call back office and another sent it to interchange for me. Then at the interchange, I was targetted by a Prudential agent who kept me accompany for like 45min and kept on calling my colleague for me. >.< I feel he not pushy type la to bombard me with questions, juz more of helping me to get back my phone.

Although I always lose my Sony Ericsson, somehow I always managed to find it back. Perhaps my guardian angel is a bit nottie but overall still good natured. But then it might oso be becoz its not attractive to get taken away (had signed my line twice all gib the new phones to my parents). Anyway, I'm satisfied already as it has all the basic functions, call/sms/camera/video/mp3/game/internet and is working fine, like most of the time la.

Recently, constant working, studies and other commitment fatigue me. I start to feel cold, dizzy, feeble and drop hair. SIAN, no time even to visit doctor lor, even if it's free for students. Thinking of taking TCM as it solves problem gradually but from the roots. Some ginseng chicken soup will be good~ *craving* Maybe I shld have some rest in Napoleon style, or simply eat some snake at times. ^^

2009-01-28T00:04:00.006+08:00

Here is some pic of my mum & aunt, me too busy enjoying life now. =P
Happy Chinese New Year everyone!!! =)

2009-01-24T15:38:00.004+08:00

Was busy everyday for my industrial attachment (IA) and another stupid thing (only some of my frenz knew abt this)since school starts. Have to wake up by 6am and reach home at 7pm with a heavy body, and this makes me wana go back to study instead. O.o On a brighter note, our coy will be having cny break for the whole next week or 9 days so feel free to kachiao me! =)

Friday we rcv ang bao + gan from big boss and ended work at 12+ only. Went for a korean lunch with 6 colleagues. The food was bad especially the cold soup which is both cold and tasteless(they din even bother to serve it initially). We joked they muz be keeping and recycling it for many days. *puke*

Later on, 5 of us went to find this ktv at DBG. We walked for 20min under the sun but ended up closed. Bobian have to walk back MRT and worse the poor guys were carrying laptop. At tat point, I sweared I wont go this gui di fang again (see what happens later). After 1hr of "exercising", went to kbox at city hall and got a good bargain for 2hrs + 6 drinks. Surprised all of my colleagues can sing quite well and we v the pro optimising both mic all the time~

This "good" fren of mine pangsei me for his tutee, then end up pangsei by his tutee instead. That's a fast one! End up meeting YF and his gang for dinner at M fish market at DBG!!! to send one of them away for GIP. Thot would be paiseh but knew 3/5 of them as NTU is not v big oso. Was surprised to meet late comer Jun Hao there too as this JH is actually that JH lor. =.= The food there is said to be copycat of fish & co but much betta IMO.

After dinner watched Red Cliff II at the cinema. The qiao thing is YF is supposed to watch with me today but pangsei me and in the end he and his frenz all watching with me. Not bad la free movie as punishment of attempting to pangsei me. WAKAKA. The movie is really good but long (watched Red Cliff I in cinema too). Steven watched before so I kept on asking him then tell him not to tell me details. =.=

The most funny & tragic part is the ending. The movie ended at 12+ and we dun hv transportation to get home!!! DBG is really a gui ding fang lor. In the end bobian took bus to orchard to take nite rider then cab. In the end spent $20 to get home and there goes my first ang bao. Zzz

2009-01-17T19:05:00.002+08:00

Recently asked a few “stupid” questions. My friend was bitten by his dog and I asked “pain or not”. When he carried a packet of ice and I asked “cold or not”. Asked my date “if someone jump from the railing will die or not”.

However, it is precisely because of such questions that I found out that a dog can actually bite her owner (not love bite kind) when they play, a bag of ice when being carried from the front is freaking cold when I tried, marina bay is man made so depth of water is same etc.

I used to think those who asked “stupid” questions during tutorial are rather dumb. Yet, at the end of the day, they usually archive better results (those who lauff the last lauff the best). It may appear dumb to ask the obvious question, but it is much dumber to hide your ignorance and never get to know the answer. Also, do not just accept things at its face value for you might not have a complete understanding. Always keep an open and inquisitive mind to new and also old things. The lesson is no question is stupid, if not sure just be “stupid” and ask.

2009-01-04T10:12:00.015+08:00

Went to see firework with Bernard at countdown last minute (luckily he knew about Shaw Tower rooftop if not walk for so long sure die). Firework on live is magnificent beyond words can!!! No wonder many people are willing to spend so much effort just to view it for a short while. Although not much people gathered there, they were really enthusiastic and cheered for the whole 10min.

Later on played a bit of those little sparklers that I’m rather lousy at. His dog, Goldie, “greeted” me with loud barks and made me run and hide in his room. He said I’m bad that’s why she barks. =( But later on found out she even bites her owner for real lor (I thought dog that barks doesn’t bite?). Such a nottie poodle!!! ^^

About 2am+ still rather sian so joined his chalet at Pasir Ris. Played murder game with the group of them and ended up being werewolf for like 7/10 times? Other times I was fortune teller/little girl and never a villager (I just know I’m special, TEHEHE =P). Must admit was really a lousy player to pretend around (once I got the murderer card I sian diao le). Ended up drinking some beer which actually taste not bad at all. ^^

TCC at Keppel Bay is really a romantic & relaxing place!!! Maybe I was lucky, previously went at night to chill out while viewing the calming sea. Yesterday went there during the day. The sky was a little gloomy with drizzle while my date & I were sitting at a cozy corner under the dim crystal light.*shy*

Mr Meow ^^ (too shy to show face)

Miss Meow ^^ (oso too shy to show face)

It is liddat without arranging lor, the balls even have hair! The prickle in middle so sour can die but the balls are nice nevertheless.

P/S: Pass me receipt of TCC if u happen to have, fren fren ma~~

P/P/S: Bernard & I are purely frenz only. In fact, we are as pure as snow that we have 0.00 body contact before man. So "jialat" his frenz think otherwise thus I help to clarify here lor. =.="

"Westerns" should all know since a year ago Jurong Point as started its expension project. It kinda created troubles for me coz 1)further distance to bus stop/shopping mall and 2) I hv no GPRS implanted so being constantly lost is my forte.

Last week, the enlarged JP has finally reopened!!! The fruit is sweet: Singapore's largest suburban shopping mall with >400 retailing/dinning stores. In fact, it has become so ass kicking big that not to get lost is IMPOSSIBLE! It is almost 3 times bigger in width and depth with many new shops of names unheard of. (how I wish I can become super rich to shop all of them...aza aza fighting)

We went to shop at Fair Price (dunoe why I juz LOVE to go to supermarket/pharmacy/dinning places). Was kinda sleepy so when a random guy asked "wan this chocolate or not" I instantly replied "dun wan not nice one". Then his frenz stunned and followed by lauffing nonstop... =.=" Guess wat I saw later, not only JP invaded by many unknow stores, there are many this thing all over the place...

I can understand bears coz they are cute n huggable.

I can understand "personified" milo tin with hands and legs as its like Singapore's local product already.

But...tell me wat is this thing?! It looks exactly like sh*t. And the minute I saw it, it started to use its hands to support its head and VIBRATE. OMG, a vibrating sh*t!!! It totally woke me up at the instant and I couldnt stop lauffing at it. (later realise the person inside actually can see, so paiseh)In case u wana know, this is chipmore's mascot lar. So cute hope ya can bring more business. *PAT PAT PAAAT*

Recently bought some shirt from Bosinni oso. The LITTLE MISS series has come back, and I bought them in kid's version instead! =))) Dun u find it annoying that u pay same price for XS gal and XL guy? It is so unfair as material used, shipping etc is doubled lor.

So buy kid's clothes is good as
1)more worthy u get to buy biggest size while u buy smallest for adult (size in 120/130/140/150/160)
2)the printing is much cuter than adult's version
3)the material used is betta than adult's version
4)much more unique than normal adult shirt where u can bump into a few at Bugis especially
5) it is cheaper too
No need to be petite as I can wear with plenty extra space, but make sure u r at most 160cm la! ^^

Being living at Jurong since pri sch, really hope it can be developed to be betta n betta, like CBD area kind. Then, that someone wont say this place is "bird oso wont lie egg". *punch*

Christmas is coming!!!

Pet + Christmas suit == ultra kawaii!!!

Do you find the biggest difference between a cat and a dog's photo? Unlike dogs, cats always either slp or show a "tulan" face to the photographer (really cant stand toopid human beings, zzz). >.<

*credit to photographers, whoever u are! =)

A friend used to “for sex, girls need a purpose but guys just need a place” which I beg to differ, to me:

Sex is about control. Indeed, the world is filled with temptation and desires. Indeed, everyone has lust and needs. Indeed, we are at the prime of age only once. However, it all boils down to be disciplined enough to do the right thing. What makes us different from beasts if we cannot take control of ourselves?

Sex is about choices. We can still say “no” when everyone around us is doing it. We can still decline when seduced or threatened. We can still choose not to even if we had done it before. In life, we are given choices for everything and we do things simply because we choose to.

Sex is about love and respect. We shall realize that our bodies are not just ours. If we choose to harm it, our loved ones will get hurt as a result. Retrospectively, we shall only do with the loved ones who care, protect and take responsibilities of us. It is called love making for the love we share.

Sex is a belief. To me, it is to be done with the right person for the right purpose, and it is only meaningful in this way. In life, each of us has a set of values to adhere to. We can abandon health, wealth, fame, power but not this belief, as without this belief we are reduced to nothingness.

P/S: Maybe I should just live in the past era la. Nevertheless, this is what I believe in all the while regardless of the general social behavior and expectation today. =)

Time really flies, so soon a week has passed by. Had bad flu for the whole week man (it comes with a package of blocked nose, sore throat n slight fever). Popped pills and was so lethagic to do anything at all except zzz, and this teaches me to cherish my good health which I used to take for granted. Really pity those people with sinus. For I wonder how can they endure such a disastrous condition for so long, as a few nights of blocked nose can kill me already (shouldnt lauff at them with boxes of tissue, me bad).

Saturday bobian dragged my lazy body to CCK to collect my GOJANE shoes from Amy (should blog about this "bleeding" hobby of mine in another post SOON). Always buy from her as she is super trustworthy and friendly (my first and best spree organiser and friend)! =)

Then while waiting for Bernard to come, went to makan at foodcourt there. Met a stranger at table and she asked me, "Are you singaporean? You look like japanese." =.= Later chatted a while with her during the meal and found out her name is Maryjane and she is a Filipino working at Quest as a researcher. She was inquisitive about our Singapore's Education system like JC and poly while I described to her. Apparently at Philippines they go to university just after secondary school and she obtained her degree at only 20! We chatted about other random stuffs until she came to the topic of Christianity. Her religion believes we do not come to this world by chance but with a purpose in life. This leaves me ponder for the rest of the day, what is my purpose to be in this world then?

Went shopping with Bernard at Expo JL mega sales. Saw clusters of clothes, daily products and foodie! So many stuffs to choose from and we shopped fast. (Gals shop with pleasure and guys shop with purpose) In the end only bought this queen size bedsheet+pillow case X2+bolster case for only $15.90. Is it childish?! I guess it's only normal for gals to hug bears to slp and I just have to make to do with virtual bears as my cleaniness freak mum threw away my furry frenz.

Went to makan seafood at Changi Village for dinner. Had this special dish of seashells which I ate for the first time. Taste really not bad like abalone~ Later on waited for almost one hour for 4 BBQ chix wings to come. It is really annoying as I have in turn one less hour to live in this world, GRRR. The bill came to be rather exp as well for 1 plate of BBQ, 2 plates of shellfood, 1 plate of fish and 1 plate of vege. Somemore the food is rather mediocre and waiting is mad.

Went to TCC later on to yum kopi, ok la to enjoy a cuppa of spirit lifting classy coffee. I had my staple mocha and he had a choc cake with flower tea. Really nice ambiance to chill and chat under the dim light and next to the sea (ok maybe not directly next to but indoor through the glass).

I like this white Christmas tree, bez decor with blue balls!!! ^^

The night is so silently dark with yachts floating peacefully on the sea of glittering light. One can feel the refreshing breeze carassing ya skin and catch a sniff of delicious food at the nearby sandwich bar. It is such a serene scene which makes people just wana enjoy this magical moment in complete silence.

P/S: Please tell me some inspiring books/novels to read by writing to starrysky2004@hotmail.com. I'm currently reading a book "Being Happy" and "Happiness Now" by Andrew Matthews. =)

FINALLY EXAM IS OVER!!! Wah, a two week exam is like so damn long curfew. I hate to drag such things, usually finish it the earlier the betta ma. No?!

Before my last paper, my dad came back from work at Shanghai. He used to bring back "braised" stuff like chix wing, duck wing, chicken feet (damn ugly but taste damn nice) and "special egg". I really dunoe the formal name for this eggie, looks chiao tat egg and tastes like tea leaf egg but is like 1000X betta!!! This time, he bought like 50 eggs for me (vacummely packed so i assume can keep long long).

This time, of all the delicacies in China, he brought back da4 za2 xie4 aka Chinese mitten crab aka hairy crab and aka horny crab(ok maybe not the last name).

Extracted from Wiki:

In contrast, the crab is a famous delicacy in Shanghai cuisine and is prized for the female crab's ovaries. The crab meat is believed by the Chinese to have a "cooling" (yin) effect on the body. Concerns have been raised that the population and origin of the crab may be affected because of overfishing of the species in the Yangtze River. Today Yangcheng Lake is the most famous area for the Chinese mitten crabs, however, the original species had been extirpated by the early 1990s. All you can find in Yangcheng Lake nowadays is a Japanese relative (Eriocheir japonicus[verification needed]) that was introduced around 2000.

Chinese spend hundreds of yuan just to taste a small crab from that lake. But even these are in fact the more robust Japanese mitten crabs, as the original native stock in Yangcheng Lake has disappeared. Most of the Yangcheng crabs are exported to Shanghai and Hong Kong, and high-profit foreign markets. Responding to the spread of the crab to the West, businessmen have started seeing it as the new source of crab for supporting the huge appetite in China market. One proposed scheme involves importing unwanted crabs from Europe, where they are seen as a pest, to replenish local pure-bred stock.

In short, it is a delicacy and therefore must try la! If you tell me scorpion is a delicacy I wont hesitate to try too. ^^

The thing about seafood is to taste it as original as possible to bring out the freshness in it. So we simply steam them and eat with vinegar/ginger. After a whole day of smuggling them over in midst of ice, my dad says they still kick, like real.

Look at those thick, bushy, horny...oops hairy legs~ They sure look like devils but taste like erm, angels. Just kidding! Please don't eat the hair, they are for decor only.

Dont be disappointed by its petite, fugly looking appearance, when u slowly open it, the treasure is all in!!! CRAB ROE CRAB ROE CRAB ROE CRAB ROE CRAB ROE (so much it makes you insane). Now you can fully understand what is dont judge a crab by its cover.

Basically you are eating nothing but crab roe out of it. My shifu at Shanghai says they are sold dirt cheap like RMB8 for one but of coz the top grade ones can go up to RMB100+. My food khaki (dun angry ah Bernard we makan sutra like 99% when we go out lor) says they cost like SGD20+ or near SGD100 for crab meal in restaurant with one pathetic crab. Hmm, apparently everyone ate it before and hides from me!!! All in all, it's so damn nice makes one can die in peace. Hmm, how abt bring over 50 crabs from shanghai next time??? I'M SERIOUS.

Product Information:
Sexy is built right in with patent-pending technology: a special powernet panel in nylon and spandex with seams for shape, stretch for fit. Enhances your derriere. Flattens your tummy. Slims thighs so they look smoother and feel firmer.

1) Usefulness 7/10
From outside, it appears to be a conventional type of daily jeans. It is like wearing a "secret" shapewear inside, which results in a sexier figure (imagine Jessica with her perky boom-boom). Basically, it works by sewing in an extra inner nylon "net" which shapes ya tummy, butt and thighs. The only rant is it is hotter than usual jeans (literally) due to the extra inner "net".

2) Cost Effectiveness 9/10
This super jeans is almost a steal selling at 29.99USD, which is even cheaper than usual jeans. Plus, curiosity kills the cat, who doesn't wish to see what exactly it is with such description given.

3) Appearance 8/10
A pair of jeans looks only good if it FITS. This piece really fits me like a dream and the only regret is I bought it in white. White really gets dirty easily, no wonder white jeans is so rare! =.=

4) Potential Market Value 8/10
This jeans can be targetted at females of any age (duh, who doesn't wana be hot). Marketed as a high-end fashion brand, I'm truly amazed at the sophiscated technology that VS has come up with. One thing that VS (and most US merchants) has done extremely well is it is price guaranteed with a systematic return/exchange policy.

This is my firs time writing product review. yuroshiku onegai shimasu. =)

Product name: Germanium High Waist Hip Up Shorts

Product info: It contains "Germanium, titanium, silver" element granule fine in the elastic fiber, the effect will not vanishes after multiple washes. This High Waist Hip Up Shorts utilizes the 3D three-dimensional good-fitting tailor design to have the perfect wrap effect on the entire waist and the abdomen. It will instantaneous hideaway lose, flabby tummies. Along with the bodily rhythm, it will send out germanium, the titanium, the silver element, to give off heat, resulting in perspiration and burning calories as though you were exercising.

1) Usefulness 5/10
I'm not sure of the part as it claims to be as though exercising while wearing it. In fact, there is no visible size reduction after wearing for 1 month (i am average S size built). I think it makes ya tummy/hips appear smaller through hiding the fats, but I don't have much a big problem to begin with. BTW must wear a pantie inside coz it has waffles pattern to burn fats n you dun wana burn "there". Since my mum always complain of her big tummy, the next thing is pass on to her to try. I guess 1000 sit-ups per day is a betta way. ^^

2) Cost Effectiveness 2/10
Selling at $15.30 at local blog shop (or even >$25 at another), it is considered quite steep. The few selling points are: made in japan, high quality material and tummy+hips 2-in-1 slimming shapewear.

3) Appearance 3/10
Average appearance as I only wear at home, if I remember to. There is newer version with lacy design though. They should really come up with another lighter verson besides nude or black. Black is too dark under light clothing and nude is too too too ah mah, baby pink is the best!!!

4) Potential Market Value 7/10
I think it is appealling if sold much cheaper, definately less than $10. As all gals wana be prettier and slimmer, they can wear it frequently to reshape their tummy/hips. It can also be worn inside a nice dress/top/buttom to hide all the ugly fats.

Here are 5 lessons that I have learnt from love:

Lesson one: Opposite of love is not hatred, it is being indifferent.

Lesson two: Love and hatred can co-exist.

Lesson three: It always hurts herself more than the one she hates.

Lesson four: To forgive someone is ultimately to let go of yourself.

Lesson five: Please apologise when she asks you to, for she might just wish to stop blaming herself.

I have done a lot of shopping recently!!! Some of the items are really interesting~ Will update them in my next post! =)

2008-09-23T07:54:00.003+08:00

MY BLOG IS SO LACK OF UPDATES & NOBODY IS GONNA READ IT ANYMORE!!! ="(

First of all, sorry for lack of updates for being busy and lazy. Of coz I do feel guilty, but its like kinda withdrawl syndrome, when one kept on withdrawing, simply coz nothing triggers her to write... =/

However, I've a brilliant idea now. I shall hv a theme for my blog. The idea I've on my mind now is to write review on stuffs newly developed by latest technology aka entrepreneur. No, it is not gonna be high tech/CREATIVE products/electronic gadgets only, it can be ANY innovative and interesting products in the market.

The POV I hold is purely as a user, can be reviewed upon 1) Usefulness -conveniency, effectiveness, durability etc 2) Cost - ROI 3) Appearance 4) Potential Market Value

Do look forward to my future posts! =)

P/S: I've included a lot of blog links at left side panel, have a look if u r free~ ^^

Now, I dun get elated, angry, sad over such people anymore. What's the point? The other party won't have the slightest tinge of guilt or shed a single drop of tear.

Maybe it is also part and parcel of growing up, when people become more mature and composed. At a positive side, it is called emotionally stable and in plain term, it is numb and indifferent to others.

Christal, shine now!!! If I dun shine now, when ll i be given a second chance? Live your life to the fullest and most desirable way. It ll be a blessing to those who love you and a "revenge" to the opposite.

2008-08-24T22:34:00.003+08:00

When she chides you pig/baka/idiot, it means she adores you.

When she says do not bother about me/never mind, it means she needs your care and concern.

When she demands a sorry from you, it means she just wishes to stop blaming herself.

When she acts strong/stubborn, it means she does not want you to worry or feel sad.

When she bullies you, it means she just wishes to be doted even more.

When she gets angry with you, it means you are important to her.

When she walks away too far, it means she wants you to find her back again.

When she hits/scratches/bites you, believe it, it hurts her too.

When she says she loves you, it is done with all her heart and soul.

P/S: They apply to me sometimes, not all the time.

P/P/S: It does not apply to all gals in general.

P/P/P/S: Do not ask me about other gals, I do not know.

2008-08-11T23:55:00.004+08:00

Is there at point of ya life where u dun feel like doing anything at all, even those whch u used to like a lot? For instance, u dun feel like jogging, or drawing, or shopping, or gaming... It is like, suddenly, ya hobbies or fav pastime juz do not interest u anymore.

I used to like singing a lot, but now at most i ll listen to songs. I'm juz worried tat it is a sign of aging, psychologically.

Anyway, went to eat ramen recently.

They all look so nice rite, until u see this... ARGH!!! We din regurgitate anything, it is juz the soup base. @@

After the yummy food, we had tummyache for the whole afternoon. =.=

2008-07-24T16:19:00.003+08:00

Finally finished my spec sem accounting paper!!! It is a v interesting subj (in fact more exciting than biz finance but less than marketing) and definately hv many applications in work and private life. For score wise, as long as u put in effort, A is not a problem (for me i will as i find it engaging).

Time really flies, in a blink n my holiday is gonna be over (loaded with 2 spec sems). The next full sem i predict to be helly busy with 6 cores, 2 lab/proj and 2 electives. Only if all subj i take can be done with a zest like...erm...as if in love with them? =P But, this is no doubt the most enjoyable and efficient way la.

Putting work aside, technically i've still approximately one week+ to go. I plan to do something fun:
a) Go for food marathone all over Singapore.
b) Go for fun stuff like movie, Kbox, pool, swimming, dancing, reading etc.
c) Go for dates for anything, it's the companionship that matters.
d) Go for makeover, ie shopping/diet/exercise etc.
Hmm, maybe more for value-added activities since there is time/financial constrains. Hmm, eat less so can fit into nice *ahem* clothes. ^^

2008-06-27T03:54:00.002+08:00

This afternoon was registrating for my subj whch almost gave me a heart attack! Since I've passed all my subj, obviously I login in the timing for the passing cohort. However, the sys juz refused to let me enter. (Later I found out actually my timing is in the morning since I took MC for one paper which is kinda consider "failed")

Tell u, the feeling juz sux to the core! It is like you wana do something about it but you are so useless and helpless...to see all the available slots kana snapped up quickly. Luckily I recover my coolness just as quick, I immed came up w plan Bs to counterate the change. Although everything was non constant then due to "jumping" vacancies, it is always betta to add on plans to expand ya ready portfolio, like the concept of risk and insurance. (I notice some ppl apply this principle to dating game as well)

Anyway, I foresee next sem to be v hectic. 27 AU with breakdown: 6 cores, 1 lab, 1 proj, 1 pe, 1 ue due to retaking of the MC subj and completing my minor. (NTU now charges us for special sem and I cant make up time for it as well)

Some said I'm siao to overtax myself, but I take it as an opportunity as well. In life, I feel we should at least take some chances to challenge ourselves, to walk out of our comfort zone and do something extraordinary. Some participated in marathon, others engage in extreme sports, a few might take it in the wrong way, but it is still part and parcel of growing up - to live right sometimes is to do wrong things.

The ultimate goal is to offset the limit in order to see how far one can really go and to prove that what one believes one can achieve (it is all in one's mind)! On another note, I have never regretted about the things I did, I only reflect upon them. ^^

2008-06-22T23:04:00.005+08:00

Yes, technically my holiday is over, which is the only week between my 5-week project and special sem module, and both are not that easy.

Recently having a sudden shopping craze, used to be dresses, then necklaces, then earrings and now lingerie. To think about it, it is like phases of growing up of a gal. Maybe later on I ll fall in love with bags and shoes (have a total of less than 5 now, I'm serious), for which I always wonder why women are crazy over them?

Anyway, bought a few bra from Triumph and lingerie sets from PC. Spent around $70 and bought these 3 sets online imported from USA.

2 pc Sheer babydoll with mesh roses, with G-string

Halter Mini Dress With Satin Ribbon Tie Front

Slinky halter mini dress with lace trim and dual lace up slits

I've received the items in good condition and all of them fit like a dream. =) Now they are having GSS with discount and free reg mail + free wrapping + further 10% over a >$60 receipt and 10% to be redemn upon next purchase. However, even if I'm crazy over something I wont go gaga over it, to shop is always to spend within budget and rationally.

Today had a satisfised meal with my eating khaki (that's the only thing we do together everytime) at Turf city aka ma cheng. Firstly, we went to Unique seafood market to choose the lovely creatures to be eaten (I eat all seafoods, meats, fruits and vegetables). There are more than 80 varieties of seafood available such as fish, shelled seafood, prawn, crab, lobster, snake and even shark.

The wonderful thing is now they hold a promotion of 50% discount and our chosen seafood can be served at Ah Yet or Owen restaurant next door FOC!!! =) Below are wad we had for dinner, I forgot to take pictures but managed to find similar ones.

Our first dish is mussles or da tou cooked in kampoon style. The thing about seafood is it is most delicious when served fresh! The sauce is v appetising to eat many bowls of rice which I normally dun eat.

This is followed by XL bamboo clams which has lots of fragrant garlic topping! The meat is so tender and juicy!!!

Then we had some oysters served in cheese. My khaki suggested it chilled but I prefer cooked since I dun hv a good tummy recently. It is pipping HOT!!! I love the way both cheese and oyster melt in my mouth.

I have a food fetish for snake...or rather eel, so I suggested this to my khaki as I dun wana appear to know nothing. I know it might not look appetizing and in fact hideous upon first sight (the brave salesgal took it in her hand k), but it is v v v tasty!

In case u wonder, we had it cooked in Gong Bao style which is sweet, spicy, crispy and tender! The good thing is they even removed bone for us. Tell you animal bones r totally useless if it is meant to be eaten. My khaki told me it tastes like unagi, but...unagi is eel too!

Laz is my favourite...CRAB!!! I can eat 20+ crabs in one go as my tummy ll nv resist crabs. We had one cooked in pumpkin cream and another black peppered, I din know there is egg yolk crab so we will leave it to next time.

Even though black peppered one is a tad salty, I'm fine with it coz it is still crab. Normally ppl dun eat crab coz it is mafan. However, I'm one smart and patient gal who ll take time to eat it clean.

Overall, the meal is v satisfying and service is not bad too. The total damage is 60+ only consider the quality and taste of food served.

Of coz this is not the end of everything, for part II at Ben & Jerry pls read the next post. ^^

DIP (design & innovative project) which lasted for the past 5 weeks 8am to 5pm had finally marked its end on this Thursday. Really learnt a lot: from academic to PR to way of handling things...

In this journey, I struggled and conquered my mental barrier of programming. It might not be my forte still, but through sheer determination, I'm sure I can handle it juz like computing. The most impt criterion which determines the outcome of our studies or anything else is often our attitude. I can choose to either face it or to escape from it. I can resist it in my best ability, but in turn I will become less receptive towards picking up things. "Nobody can teach you anything except yourself." The flow of information and ideas is best through an open mind. Thus, having a positive attitude towards learning, unlearning and relearning is essential.

Suddenly, all the stress and endless work has come to an end. Apart from a sense of relief and achievement, there is a tinge of emptiness as well. I guess I will miss the companionship of my teammates who had been there all these days, even if there are hiccups sometimes. It is also rather strange I had gastric, then rashes, then sore throat, then cough, then flu, then tummyache during DIP when I rest early but all recovered when I slp late now. Guess I'm born nocturnal. ^^

On a side note my mama's flying off too so I'm left in sg alone again (yea la yea la I dun hv any sibling may God bless you of ya annoying bro/sis =P ). They used to cook hao liao n prepare watermelon, cake, drinks etc n now dun even bother le. =(

P/S: Pls help me click the ads above, I'm gonna get my cheque soon!!! =)

These few weeks have been busy with DIP (design and innovative project) days and sometimes even nights. It is both mentally torturing and demoralising when you cant even program out something which appears to be simple, or at least at first sight la. Indeed I tried v hard to make it work but it juz refuses to obey me and even asked my fren to help to modify the program during the weekend.

Recently, managed to catch 2 movies: What happened in Vegas & Indiana Jones with 2 different frenz. Both r worth to watch!!! Went GSS shopping at Orchard laz sat with another fren as well. My fren said I'm not fit to be a gal coz I cant stand the crowd and neither enthu to shop. Really, I was busily looking for seats while HE shopped around. (DUN BUY CK SHOES THEY BITE BIG TIME SIA!!!)

It's really funny people always judge others and jump into conclusion. In return, they make all kinds of fallacious statements. The truth is one can never understand another person well enough to make a rightful judgement.

Sometimes guys r really dumb...

The world has changed a lot in the past few days. In the Si Chuan earthquake, numerous lives were lost and home were gone all of a sudden. No doubt, it is a big hit to many, as who is to think life can be that fragile and unpredictable... For a disaster like this, many helping hands are extended regardless of languages spoken, races, religions and political stands, as human beings are afterall group species.

Today, one of my friend is going army, as he had made a decision to switch course. (I might not agree to his decision, but I admire his courage to dare to pursue his dream) Another one is going to start working in a new company upon graduation.

In life, we will face many changes, regardless good or bad, whether if we like it or not. Indeed, life can be that unpredictable and fragile, but one's will can be powerful as well.

Everyone has to begin somewhere, however, it is the true determination that carries him far.

I juz discovered that i have horrible shopping pattern!!!

As a gal, i seldom shop. In fact, i only shop for clothes twice a year ie CNY, Christmas or pei my frenz shop. Opposite of me, my mama shops in a scary manner.

Once, she wana buy some fishballs for relatives, she ended up purchasing other balls, then she bought an ice bag to store them, then she bought a bag to contain the ice bag, then she bought a box of biscuits to get the bag free, then she bought milo to eat w biscuit....i hope u get my story.

Yea, in a way u can say her buy pattern is kind of logical, like cause n effect relationships. Now i kind of inheritated this, but in a subconscious manner.

Look, this is my NTU matrix card, in red, black and white.

Somedays back, i bought myself a wallet, whch is in red, black and white.

See how wonderfully both of them match.

Then i realise i actually hv an outfit whch can promote my wallet, in red, black and white.

I swear i din even try a bit to match them, all the things juz happened! -_-"

2008-04-23T21:39:00.003+08:00

睡觉睡觉睡觉，大家睡觉睡觉。
Exam is so tiring la, think human beings can live much longer without taking exams.

Tell u my mama damn funny, she says "dun be nervous for exam la, at most dapao then retake lor." -_- Then when she asks how i feel abt the paper she answers herself "dun expect u full marks la uni where got full mark not primary sch, pass can liao." -_-"

With this kind of mama where got motivation u tell me!

2008-04-07T02:15:00.006+08:00

Exam is coming soon, how is revision for you guys? The outlook for me is not good due to pure laziness, although I planned to put study as my priority (read my new year resolution entry).

However, sometimes we procrastinate just because we do not like to do certain things, ie study. So for now, I try to forget the fact that I am studying for exam. In fact, I am looking forward to an overseas trip real soon. =)

Psychologically, people go for overseas trip for different reason. Overall, the four main reasons are:

1) Business trip: Due to globalization, it is unavoidable that people travel all over the world for their job requirement. These people put work as their priority and can only afford to travel around during leisure time.

2) Escapism: For some reasons, people also go overseas to escape from people or events. They either do not wish to face certain situation or want to shirk responsible or obligations. These people live in places where outsiders do not know and restrict their own movements.

3) Relaxation: Because of fast pace of living, people go for overseas holidays once in a while to recharge batteries. These people usually go holiday to suntan, massage, shopping for therapeutic purpose. However, they are not willing to take up challenges which are out of their comfort zone.
4) Adventure: These people travel to different places to experience different things. They are willing to try out new things such as rock climbing, scuba diving or eating exotic food. Deep down, they might be tired of the mundane life they lead currently and they also love to have freedom.

For me, I belong to the last category. Seriously, I do not mind backpacking in a foreign land and get myself silly or dirty to experience different things in life. After all, there are so many things I have not done and places I have not gone before. Also, I guess this is the best way to have a complete experience of an overseas trip.

In fact, I still miss the time in OBS where in the days we did kayaking and rock climbing and at night we slept in muddy, rocky, grassy camps for the entire week. Although we do not know each other well, I ate from their lunchbox (I forgot to bring mine), we randomly slept in any of the camps we built at night and we shared our sunblock, insect repellent, toiletries etc.

We just had so much fun doing all the silly things together and the feeling of letting go of yourself totally is orgasmic! It is when you put behind all your troubles and concerns and being unconscious of who you are and what you do. Gosh, sound so much like beer ads! ^^

If you cant find me in the pic its fine, i can hardly recognise myself either.

Okie, let's pick up the fighting spirit before exam ends. Will plan to go overseas after this exam (shall be discussed in later post). Gambatte!!!

2008-03-22T23:10:00.002+08:00

Hi peep, some jokes here to crack up ya day. Have a nice weekend~~~ ^^

In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed through stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods.

On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom) -- "Do not turn upside down." (well...duh, a bit late, huh!)

On Sainsbury's peanuts -- "Warning: contains nuts." (talk about a news flash)

On Boot's Children Cough Medicine -- "Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication." (We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could just get those 5 year-olds with head-colds off those bulldozers.)

On Marks &Spencer Bread Pudding -- "Product will be hot after heating." (...and you thought????...)

On a Sears hairdryer -- Do not use while sleeping. (That's the only time I have to work on my hair.)

On a bag of Fritos -- You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside. (the shoplifter special?)

On a bar of Dial soap -- "Directions: Use like regular soap." (and that would be???....)

On some Swanson frozen dinners -- "Serving suggestion: Defrost." (but, it's just a suggestion.)

On packaging for a Rowenta iron -- "Do not iron clothes on body." (but wouldn't this save me time?)

On Nytol Sleep Aid -- "Warning: May cause drowsiness." (..I'm taking this because???....)

On most brands of Christmas lights -- "For indoor or outdoor use only." (as opposed to what?)

On a Japanese food processor -- "Not to be used for the other use." (now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious.)

On an American Airlines packet of nuts -- "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts." (Step 3: say what?)

On a child's Superman costume -- "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly." (I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one.)

On a Swedish chainsaw -- "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals." (Oh my God..was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)

2008-03-07T05:19:00.006+08:00

Sian, exam is around the corner but I've only completed 10 tutorials so far.

Kittiemaru let's jiayou!!! ^^

Hmm, I guess many of you had heard/seen of and gossiped about the Edison incident. Honestly, I cant be bothered to analyse who's in the wrong, coz it's none of my business. Anyway, below is a joke taken from another website (juz take it at a pinch of salt):

谢霆锋：你还好吗？

张柏芝：我很好。

谢霆锋：我爸我妈我妹妹我儿子都还好把？张柏芝：爸爸在上海又泡了一个小mm，我刚和妈妈去买了金橘树，你妹妹又找了新的男朋友，儿子挺好的。

谢霆锋：我看过了。

张柏芝：我不是故意的，你相信我，自从嫁给你后，我是真的想和你过日子的。

谢霆锋：我知道，只是我心里很苦，我想杀了他。

张柏芝：你答应过我的，把从前都忘了的。

谢霆锋：你让我安静一会。

张柏芝从房间里走了出去，谢霆锋开始拨打电话。

谢霆锋：冠希

陈冠希：是你，你现在这个时候打电话给我做什么？你高兴了吧，我毁了，全世界都知道我毁了。

谢霆锋：别这样说，我知道你很苦。

陈冠希：你为什么要这样做?为什么要把照片放出去？

谢霆锋：我快疯了，我恨这些在你怀里的女人，我受够了只能通过你抱过的女人来感受的你的体温，受够了你的报复，你要结婚了，我得不到你，只能毁了你。

陈冠希：是你先结婚的好不好？我难道想忘记你，过一个正常男人的生活也有错吗，我不想像我父亲，我恨他。

谢霆锋：如果不是看到柏芝私藏的这些照片，我是不会娶她的，我太傻了，我以为这样可以报复你，没想到你根本不在乎。

陈冠希：现在说这些还有意义吗？你赢了，我要离开香港了，我的婚事也吹了，你满意了吧？

谢霆锋：我们都太傻了。我爱你，一直都只爱你一个。

陈冠希：我应该恨你的，为什么我只觉得很无奈，很无力，我先挂了，再见，忘了我吧，好好对待柏芝，她始终最无辜。

电话挂断了，霆锋慢慢瘫坐在地上，哭泣起来，他努力不让自己发出声音，夜凉如水。门外偷听的柏芝，静静的离开，夜很长。

画外音：嫉妒是爱情的毒酒，为什么所有人还甘之如饴？

这夜的香港，维多利亚港的烟花特别灿烂，有人在整理行李，有人在独自哭泣，有人在寂寞里等待希望，只是大家都错过了烟花。

黑暗中：一个女子的声音响起：明天开始，就不要在上传照片了，我知道，我确定，这次他们是真的断了。

I guess there are more conspiracies under this matter, do not be surprised by the ugliness of this world. ^^

2008-02-20T22:37:00.002+08:00

This is a song called Tai Lai Zhi Ying, supposingly to promote world peace where there ll be no more wars. Hopefully that day will come soon~ (War does not determine who is right but who is left)

2008-02-04T21:51:00.000+08:00

Very good, I used some anti-virus system to scan my pc n detected 1406 infections (those who buy 4D can try)!!! Out of anger, I went to re-formate my pc and gosh my pc cant online, cant read chinese and my audio, microsoft office, adobe etc etc all gone! I spent my whole fri, sat, sun tried to settle this and that but all futile. Wad is a pc which cant go online, which is like a woman without clea...nvm.

Juz realised guys have more calibre in IT related stuff than gals. Wad driver (taxi driver?), wad motherboard, wad activation of integrated sound card? Hmm...v de chim k~~~ -_- My EDIOTIC (yes my spelling is rite here) fren lauffed at me when I told him my programme files still inside C drive leh, saying I merely re-installed my pc only AND IT'S ALREADY SO TROUBLESOME!!!

Kind of gib up on all these crazy stuff and juz korped my dad's lappie to use. ^^ I was shocked dat the cursor juz moved everywhere until much later realised there is a sensor board so my hands shld stay away from it. -_-

Talk abt happy stuff, went cny foodie shopping and bought lots of titbits: love letters, choco rolls, muaji, pudding candies, wang wang, cny cookies X3 etc etc. Was supposed to ask my mum not to buy too much (coz she laz year chose lousy cheapo candies till nobody wana eat), in the end I went to choose more and more.

These few days, finished 16 pc of ba gua (a lot of ppl giving us ba gua leh) and smuggled titbits into my room to eat. HEHE. Mama said its meant for the kids coming (more babysitting to be done) so cant eat them yet. *drool* I really lub the muaji, maybe coz they r as nua as me? ^^

Saying abt kids really dun like them so playful: u sit down they jump beside u, u stand up they follow u around, u face them they make funny faces, u siam them they still come slap ya butt! Worst thing is, u cant even argue with them during cny!!! *faint* My tutees I always REASON with them de, children cannot always rang them juz coz they younger, as they ll always be younger than me wat. My mum is scary, she loves to play with neighbour's baby and when return always say: hizz, when can hv my own grandchildren to play? -_- Pls, I'm not even attached.

Hizz, still nua and haben shop for my cny clothing yet. However, will post up pic of clothes I bought laz year la. Maybe can bluetooth the pics in from my hp later. Talking abt bluetooth, I really thot she had a blue tooth when my fren said the gal had a bluetooth. -_- That is indeed v smart of me.

Meanwhile, this kittie is v cuuute. I used her for my wallpaper. ^^

2008-01-31T15:17:00.000+08:00

As my mama works in kids' departmental store, she ll always bring home some cutesy stuff. Sometime back, i had been giving out many mouthless Kitty keychains to frenz coz it's too cute for me liao la. Today, she agn brings home a cute torch.

mama: gal gal, c this torch so cuuute i bring home for u lor.

me: y do i need dat...

mama: u can c ya sms in the nite ma (she suan me knowing i always sms/chat on phone at night).

me: u v cute leh, hp gt light screen de u oso got use hp one leh.

mama: liddat u can use the torch to find ya hp at nite if frenz call u.

Wah, so do i need to find my torch in the dark first so as to find my hp??? KAKAKA, so funny i start rolling on my king size bed non stop...

This juz remind me of another joke:

Someone invented a torch using solar energy as power source. Another person said he's dumb invented a torch to light up when another torch shines on it. -_-"

p/s: It's gonna be cny agn, a time for steamboat, reunion dinner, bah kua, love letters and lots of ANG BAO!!! Promise to post up pics of cny clothing next time, coz i haven buy yet (gal cannot lazy to shop de meh).

2008-01-27T01:19:00.000+08:00

These days feels damn boring, if i were to hv some money, i wana backpack to a foreign land n explore new things. The feeling of liu lang tian ya i think is damn cool!

Someone asked me today how do i wana live my life, for which i answered: I wana feel peaceful n calm when i go to slp every night & feel blessed n have something to look forward to when i wake up every morning. Honestly, there are so many things i have not tried doing before n so many places i have not gone before. If my life were a movie, i wana make it a meaningful n colorful one!

Went far east plaza for CNY clothes shopping but end up pigging instead. Had Subway, jilin mee sua (without oysters), power nasi lemak for dinner. My fren said i can eat a lot but i juz have the mood to do so la. Strangly, i seldom shop but like to depressurize by makan sutra~

Managed to rescue a kittie from been squashed in a car accident and found it was eating something damn gross. It is a PANCAKED rat (dunnoe how many cars ran over it le lor) with all the pinky intestines n brain juice. Suddenly i feel so pukish n my fren reminded its rat year n cat actually EAT rat de lor. I totally forgot they do coz rats were everywhere in Bedok with cats busily sleeping.

Actually got something more gross on my way to FEP la. On the MRT, there was a man standing v close in front of my seat. He juz kept on swaying his lower part of the body front n back. Somehow, i juz find his gesture v offensive/suggestive (juz imagine the f thing on his mind la). The gal next to me left her seat liao but i dun feel like leaving my seat lor. I juz wish to take out the scissors inside my pencil case n *chop chop* his there la.

I realised myself having the ability of deja vu lor!!! Laz time, i dreamt of exam questions or exact exam marks etc which came out to be true. Some days back, I dreamt of my teeth get extracted for $110 n the next day my wisdom really got extracted! I paid $80+$15+$5+$10 for the extraction lor. Yesterday i dreamt of my mum carrying a baby lovingly n today she REALLY carries my neighbour's baby for the first time la. Maybe i can predict future for a living liao lor. OR, betta still, i juz need dream of 4 numbers n no need to make a living liao lor. HUR HUR~

Time for sweet dream~ TATA~

2008-01-09T00:10:00.000+08:00

Yea, school reopens agn for NTU (damn NUS ppl still enjoyin). This shows everything == we're all exploited till pure tiredness.

p/s: Badly in need of foot massage for carrying notes, books etc for the previous days *sobbb*

2008-01-01T21:26:00.000+08:00

Today is the best day to write New Year resolution!!! Here they go:

1. Study smart

a) I used to exert pressure on myself only but no effective solution is worked out this way. Instead, I shall now start finding pleasure in my studies in order to be passionate about studying. Pressure can only keep you from the bottom but pleasure can help you reach out for the stars!

b) Also, I shall be more disciplined and consistent in my revision. 明日复明日，明日何其多。日日复日日，万事皆蹉跎。(Things to be done today shall not be left till tomorrow as tomorrow is a never ending vicious cycle)

c) Last and most importantly, I shall be more diligent despite my lazy nature. Sometimes, things are not hard but you just lack the zest to complete it. Once you start doing, you will probably continue doing and even enjoy doing it. If you ever feel like giving up, remind yourself it is just a bit more.

2. Cultivate good hobbies

a) Exercise is a good way to relax and gain energy. I detest running as I had being doing it stupidly around the track during PE since p4. I can try other things like skipping rope, swimming, badminton, dancing etc. I feel climbing stairs is stupid too as I have to climb nanyang overhead bridge everyday for sec and uni.

b) Reading is a good way of gaining knowledge and become more poised/refined. Due to hectic timetable, there are two types of books worth reading: those allow you to gain knowledge & those enlighten you/broaden your vision and perspective.

c) Music is the best way to gain spiritual comfort and touch one’s soul. So far, I have only tried singing and dancing. I wish to learn one musical instrument from piano, guitar and violin during my lifetime. This however requires enormous amount of money and time and thus more planning/preparation is needed.

3. Adapt healthy lifestyle

a) As the Greek saying goes: you are what you eat. In whole, eat more fruits, vegetables & drink more water, soup. On the other hand, avoid overly oily, sweet, salty, spicy food and alcoholic, caffeine and carbonated drinks.

b) Sleep regularly 11pm-7am to be more alert and energetic. This is easily done when one is tired but hard to when pressurized. For relaxing, chamomile tea is highly recommended which is caffeine free.

c) Exercise regularly. (as above)

p/s: So how did i spend my countdown eventually? I zzz through it from 7pm to 7am. *_* Somebody help me before I officially turn into a pig.

p/s: You wont feel NY is worth celebrating if the first thing your mum tells you in the morning is: you're one year older! As if reminding me on NY, CNY & birthday not good enough~ Again maybe it is worth celebrating, after realising sch doesn't open tomorrow. -_-"

2007-12-13T21:55:00.000+08:00

Whenever I look at Naruto kun he ll remind me of something whch I cant really tell...until I stumble upon this expression.

Gosh, they sure look identical, even the orange outfit!!! ^^

p/s: I still lub u the most, gar gar (garfield)~

naruto

2007-12-09T23:11:00.000+08:00

I'm been watching Naruto most of the time after exam (guess I'm the laz person on earth to do so). It is really entertaining yet meaningful!

Naruto kun is really a determined person and so are Lee san, Sasuke kun and many many others in the show. The ninjas display high level of courage in the battles despite the difficulties they face and regardless of their limited capabilities and predestinated fate. The scenes where the characters fell and plucked themselves up certainly have touched the hearts of many fans.

It makes me wonder about is there ever something called "impossible"? I guess one's potential is really limitless. An important triggering factor is to believe in yourself which makes one bounce back no matter how harsh the situation is. Also, it is true that there is no shortcut to success and the only route is through pure hard work. We shall take things one at a time and tell ourselves to do just a bit more whenever we wana give up.

*one major side effect is craving for ramen*

2007-11-26T11:37:00.000+08:00

Meet my favorite animal, darei panda!!! It is sooo fat yet so energetic always~

This is a cub whch ppl in China called it xiao mao aka kitten (isnt that me?)

Yesss u r~ Cute things r meant to be eaten! *bite bite*

2007-11-08T01:37:00.000+08:00

My nose is always said to be my bez facial feature. Straight, high, juz of the right size. However, it had almost caused my life!

Dun worry, i'm not talking abt plastic surgery, whch i'm not against if i were to hv a chance. =P Laz Saturday, an accident almost happened to me due to my nose!

Okie to cut it short, that day i saw 3 fire engines rushing towards my block n later "engineers" all gathered outside my door. One of them said: gal, close ya door n windows n dun come out. I was like: y leh? He said my neighbour's house burning... Such a big fire yet i cant smell anything and juz felt my throat damn pain!!!

OT a bit, its really sad to c all ya belonging turned into ash juz liddat. I heard the old man (my new neighbour) had passed away in hospital later while all of us thot nobody's at home then. May he rest in peace though i've not seen him before yet.

I almost thot my nose gone case liao (i cant really do chem practical oso) until i met this. This thing is super duper pungent!!! If not for its claimed benefits like detoxification, clearing of pimples (i'm still young) n slimming, i wont drink it no matter what.

Now's exam period so muz take care n eat well! =))) Every night, i ll hv at least 1 supper: maggie mee, nasi lemak or my creative cooking. Good thing is my weight has a low standard deviation: 42-48kg and now its 44kg.

This is my fav nasi lemak, called boon lay POWER nasi lemak. I like the chix wing, the sunshine eggie, the hot dog, the otak n LOTS of chilli!!! (whoever buys this muz smile like siao to ask for more chilli)

I know this post is damn rojak, so it doesn't harm to end it abruptly. =)

I used to be conscious of how people look at me, like whether I appear smart, friendly, good-looking etc. In fact, I did have a bad experience in the past. Till today, I can still vividly recall one incident happened in secondary one.

I remember that was when mIRC had first started and I had joined school channels like #nygh #tchs #njc #hcjc #rvhs etc. At one period of time, I was talking particularly to one guy from the opposite school. One day, we somehow happened to meet at the bus stop so he said “Hi” to me and so on. The next day, G asked me who was that guy she saw yesterday and I told her everything. Soon, many “friendly” classmates started approaching me about it and I felt that was not a big deal and told them the truth. Since that day, I started to feel a wall of invisible ice forming and slowing engulfing me.

I was quite puzzled but I was fine with my small circle of friends like C and R. One day, I happened to find a piece of crumble paper under my desk. Out of curiosity, I opened it and began reading. It was all about some random gossiping going on in the class, till it began with: YX is so despo…she is so fugly like a pig I tell u…she thinks herself v chio got guy talking to her issit…actually she is fugly like shit…she doesn’t know he talked to her coz she is ugly meh…she is damn shameless la to claim got guy talking to her (that’s the gist but expanded to half a page). At that moment, I was completely frozen and couldn’t see a thing nor hear a sound.

This prolly explained the ostracizing part going on in the class (I was one of the victims). That was partially true: I was then having an ugly $5 short haircut, bespectacled, with some pimples on my face and before wearing braces. However, I could hardly link myself to a shameless, desperate gal flirting with guys. Since that day, I began to be more self-conscious, more reserved and dare not talk to guys at all (of coz now is different).

Actually, our perception of beauty is mainly streamed from the mass media. Somehow, a beautiful gal has to have a celebrity’s look, meaning if you look like some celebrity you are in luck. The public’s expectation of a beautiful gal is just as ridiculous. SHE should have large dolly eyes, small sharp nose and full pouting lips. SHE should weight less than 40kg, however have a well-endowed pair of boobs, nevertheless a much smaller pair of perky hips. It is hard to be a beautiful woman today, especially to look like SHE in the magazine. Some might blame it on the flag of personal trainers, nutritionists, beauticians, makeup artists, hairstylists or even plastic surgeons to be the FBI for the celebrities. In addition, the most amazing beautifying tool today would be the Photoshop where one’s flaws can be totally erased or rectified.

In comparison, the women in the past neither had an easier time to look beautiful. In ancient china, a woman has to have small, single-eyelid eyes (so called dragon phoenix eyes), large nose (brings more money luck) and small hello-kitty mouth (cherry mouth). For figure wise, she should be chubby (high social status), however flat chested (not a prostitute) and yet a small pair of foot (graceful) to support her entire heavy weight. If we were to transfer an ancient chiobu through time machine to today and vise versa, we might start condemning each other’s taste.

Personally, I feel technology has advanced to such a state that you can be as beautiful as you want to be, even not yourself. Therefore, many beauty salons, healthcare centres and surgery places have sprouted out in our society today to attack one’s vulnerability of wanting youth and beauty. Nevertheless, I do not need another party to tell me “you are beautiful” anymore. It is not because one has to reach for the beauty within herself herself, for I just know now I do not need to be beautiful to smile confidently. =)

Meet my fren's pet, Nugget. So cuuute rite? Feel like tickling her soft tummy n make her lauff till all the spikes fall out~ Hee.

This is my favorite song: Eternal Flame.

Why all beautiful things do not last forever?
为什么美丽的事物都不能化为永恒?
Why is it like firework, fascinating yet gone fast?
为什么它仿佛烟火，眩目却又稍纵即失?
Why can't we keep the flame in our hearts burning eternally?
为什么我们不能让心中的火焰永远燃烧着?
Why the souls used to be so close become strangers eventually?
为什么曾如此贴近的灵魂却最终沦为陌生人?

If love begins in this second, can it last forever?
如果爱能在瞬间展开，是否就能用永远进行着?

Juz wish to c firework one more time this year’s national day. ^^

2007-08-07T06:12:00.000+08:00

Warning: this is a looooong and boring entry, read if you cannot sleep it sure works.

Today is the first day of school, and I feel kind of unlucky... ^^

I predicted library would be crowded with people who wana print, so I woke up super early like 7am (this is a record!) to arrive in school at 8+. The moment I reached there, the lib is already super crowded and "luckily" I've a PC seat almost immed. So I happily sat down and started printing out the not-selling notes. However, by the moment I went to print it, the queue is damn long till I cannot c the end == I'm damn slow-at-work.

Anyway, I went away to join fren at south spine for lec, thinking printing can be done later. On the way there, we went to buy notes and again the queue is frigging looooooooong. After queueing a while, we cannot tahan liao so decide the go lec instead.

Then after lunch, my another fren and I went to queue again and the queue is again freaking loooooooong. I even queue at ATM and withdraw $50 for it man coz only can output $50. To cut the story short, finally it was our turn, then the auntie happily told us: no more notes liao, only can order and get on friday. So bobian, we paid to order it since we dun wana waste the queueing. I find it v stupid lor, even if we get nothing after queueing so long and missed part of 2 lec since we queue twice, why cant she hv the decency to tell us no more liao?!

Anyway, I'm kanchiong type so hate to wait for friday to own my notes. So I sold my notes to my another fren since he needs the notes away. (MUST buy it wor if not you die liao, hiak~) After all the lec, I went to lib again to print my notes. However, not satisfied w/ the printing format earlier, I reformat it all over again and decide to print later. Then I realise my card not enough money so I stored another $20 into my card. This time, the queue is rather short, so I queue again for printing it. However, the queue juz refuse to move itself!!!

To cut the story short, finally it was my turn and another auntie told me: this printing system kana virus v slow, but can only change the server tonight! I almost fainted on the spot can~ Then she said maybe you can try if it captures any of the doc. I click open and wait for downloading whch is v sloooow. I thot muz be a lot of files ma, since i'm printing out everything TWICE for I reformat my printing ma. Then finally the screen finished downloading and it opened: 0 file found. KNS!!! I almost wana cry can, then auntie said: don't worry too much come another day to print lor...just that the files wont be there anymore after today. -_-"

So at 7pm I wanted to go home liao, then the bus stop oso kana flooded until muz wait for the 5th bus to come la. To cut the story short, I finally reached home at 8. Being stubborn as I just cannot believe I cannot do things, I went to print my notes at home AGAIN. Just as I was about to print out my notes, I kana twisted my hip! WALIEW, its not like I'm niu pi gu to dance or wat lor. I just wana print out my notes by TODAY can!!! Like this my simple little wish oso cannot be fulfilled. *puke blood*

Enough said, I go rest liao. Ciao~

Some stuff I do not understand about women,

1) Why do women love to wear jewelry and have thousands of bags and shoes???
For me, I do not wear any necklace until JC. I had my ears pierced in JC2 for a stupid dare, but only began wearing earring much later in university. So far in my life, I have not worn a ring nor bracelet yet. Also, I cannot understand y they bother to buy so much bags and shoes. I guess I'm abnormal since I have only 2 pairs of shoes and 1 big bag~

2) Why do women love painting their nails???
To me, nails are dead cells or is it soft bone? Never mind, I just do not understand why do gals like to spend so much time and cash in manicure/pedicure. Maybe I'm weird, but I really dun go and paint my nails one leh. =X Please wor, my hands are not ugly. They are fair, smooth and soft. ^^

3) Why do women go diet all the time???
Eating is such a pleasurable thing in life!!! I can understand gals love to be pretty, but to forbid yourself from consuming nice foodie all the time is too much! It is like gals like to have endless dieting regardless of their body size or its effectiveness. Worse, due to long term of suppression, one might suddenly gulp down one cow and become one later. Anyway, I do not mind A BIT bah bah at tummy in exchange for delicacies~ I tend to eat foodie all the time, especially before naps or as supper as it makes you sleepy!

Some stuff I do not understand about men,

1) Why do all guys have black color wallet???
This is amazing! Just ask any guy around you what color is his wallet and you will hear “black”. It seems to be a universal code for guys to own black wallet unless a) he is not really a guy b) he is from outer space c) both

2) Why do guys gel their hair???
Being guys, sadly or luckily they do not doll up like gals by wearing makeup. However, you would find them forever enthusiastically gelling up their hair. For normal days, one dab; for special occasions, one palm. -_-”

3) Why do guys love gummy candies???
This is another “interesting” finding. It is commonly known guys do not like chocolate that much comparing to gals (which is a good thing). However, to place a packet of gummy bears or alike in front of them is dangerous, as it will vanish within 5min.

P/S: Juz watched My Sassy Girl and Windstruck so touching! *sob*
Will update pic after hair cut soon~ ^^ BTW, someone commented my eyes look like cat’s. HAAA~~~

2007-07-19T12:30:00.000+08:00

Just watched a HK movie 十分愛 Love is Not all Around acted by my Hins! ^^

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOs6lumAmuo

Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKN8ODgrWMw

Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-mim5SFvTQ

Part 4: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKqOKWhto2U

Part 7: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDfzUs9_iHQ

Part 8: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfX1i-DTmik

Part 9: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZxdWg8Xe98

Part 10: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXgCFoxpt-8

Honestly speaking, Hins (who acts as the dummy doctor) cannot act la. His forte is singing, playing piano (or any musical instrument), composing songs, writing lyrics, manupulating studio equipment n acting as eye candy only! Yes, he did play a beautiful piece of music in the movie. Woohoo~~~ (I've added this song on to the playlist, enjoy)

However, one part does touch me tremendously, that is about this guy Xiao Wu. Anyway, i doubt such a guy does exist in reality nowadays. ^^

This show makes me believe in love, just like Da Li had said "you muz believe in someone to fall in love". Nevertheless, it does not guarantee he/she is 100% trustworthy, just as wat the end speaks.

爱情并不保证幸福，幸福是要自己把握的。^^

2007-07-16T11:00:00.000+08:00

This gal is Hins' rumor gf...a v talented gal who can compose great songs. =)

Had a good cry after listening to this song~ Juz miss the cosy feeling of a big, long hug. ^^

2007-07-13T09:33:00.000+08:00

People who know me would recognise me as a chocolate lover. However, out of many brands of choc, I would cast my vote to Meiji simply coz it has most novalty in its product development. ^^

Some of the must try products here:

1) Meiji Strawberry Chocolate

It is an addictive combination of sweet strawberry + rich milk choc~ It is purrrfect for any blue day! *hint*

2) Meiji Chocolate Gummy

It comes w/ 2 versions: strawberry gummy or grape gummy centre which i prefer the later. In fact, I ate so much of this now my drawer is completely filled w such cute containers~ *hint*

3) Meiji Coffee Beat

As the name suggest, it is a rich/sweet/aromatic coffee confectionery made cleverly in the shape of chocolate beans = smooth rich choc coffee centre + crispy sweet candy wrapping. *hint*

4) Meltykiss

A v meltish type of cubic choc: strawberry n other centres wrapped w/ milk choc. Surprisingly, it does not melt in ya hand but in the warmth of ya mouth effortlessly~ (guess they did a good job in controlling m.p) *hint*

5) Meiji Pucca

Black chocolate inside chocolatey biscuits in the cute fishie shape! *meow* Taste bittersweet & crispy. *hint*

For this year's Valentine I've given out this: Meiji black + Meiji milk + Meiji Hi Milk. Different level of sweetness to suit diff taste buds. =)

Here are more versions of Meiji chocolate in 63%, 72%, 85%, 86%, 99% cacao content. Meiji is really customer-oriented as one food is never satisfactory for all people aka one man's meat's another man's poison. See, i got ink! ^^

I'm quite in love w/ their black chocolate or any brand of black chocolate. *hint*

Dark chocolate is filled with all the goodies which an antioxidant possesses. While taken frequently, it lowers blood pressure, prevents heart diseases n gives u the high of performing *ahem*. ^^

It might taste bitter initially, esp 99% cacao, which is unbearable for sweet toothies. However, the aftertaste is amazingly bittersweet, as a slight tinge of sweetness slowly envelopes ya taste buds.

Many might not know that Meiji is oso the company to produce Kit Kat in Japan. I like it a lot for its innovative spirit. Kit Kat is the world's #2 chocolate bar after Snicker's. In the UK, Kit Kat is the #1 brand both as a confectionery item and as a biscuit.

Juz a glance at how many diff flavors they could come up with. Some staple flavors include: strawberry, green tea, white + syrup, cafe latte, honeydew, lemon cheesecake, red original + white, white, passionfruit etc up to a few hundred of flavors.

Here is the whole list, yet not exhausive of upcoming ones:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kit_Kat#Kit_Kat_varieties

In fact, there are so many different versions sold at selected countries for timed period (limited edition), which further makes it more precious. It is so successful that Kit Kat fans are not only eager to taste it, they oso collect wrappers n participate enthusiastically in Kit Kat trading.

I am so interested to try their wine flavor as I find choc + wine/champaign produce heavenly liquor choc. *hint* I guess this is the only way for me to get drunk as I don't drink! ^^

This is the famous sakura, Japan's national flower. *hint* I heard it is produced during exam period to bring good luck to exam. In fact, Japanese phrase kitto katsu which translates to "You will surely win!" further enhances sales to make Kit Kat the #1 selling chocolate bar in Japan.

This Kit Kat is forever lying in my pencil case. If I were to hand it to u, I guess 99% of u ll start biting it. Then I will start sniggering mercilessly at u till u cry, as it is juz merely an eraser! =P Yes, it is thaaat realistically deceiving.

However, u might realise it is in 4 rows instead of now only 2, in remembrance of the original USA Kit Kat introduced in 1935. I guess they cannot downsize it any further as we need to "take a break" to eat it ma.

Lastly, Meiji is oso the company to come up with biscuit snacks. I guess a lot of us are familiar with the Yam Yam and Hello Panda which accompany our childhood days. *sob*

I would further introduce this pocket snack, Pocky. It is extremely chocolatey n nutty! You ll find it hard to stop at bitting the crispy biscuit stick engulfed with milk choc + super crunchy almond nutzzz. *hint*

I guess when I write abt choc I juz cant seem to end it, esp my beloved Meiji~ Here comes my freq choc attack again. I hope Meiji people do read my post too (if they r busy juz look at the *hint* ll do). Arigato!!! ^^

Remember, only u can make yaself smile. =)

my dream

2007-07-04T02:59:00.000+08:00

Have u ever wonder what ya home next time will be? Although I've no potential life partner at the moment, I guess as a gal I like to picture my future home~ *blush*

I wan a bathtub in my future house~ ^^After a hard day of work, it ll be so shiok to soak oneself inside a bathtub! Be it bubble bath, milk bath or juz plain warm water, it ll sure bring u to a different experience of sensual wellness.

Trust me, nothing beats eyes closed lying in a bathtub listening to some calming music, while eating/drinking fruits, wine, chocolate, mashi maro etc.

Heck, out of novelty u might even make some bathtub sushi for yaself~ ^^

Also, I would like to adopt a doggie, preferably Golden Retriever. Nah, I dun like small doggies like Maltese. They are so cutely yearning to be protected yet I know I’m clumsy. If I were to own a Chiwawa, I guess I ll accidentally step upon it to death in no time…

Golden retrievers are relatively large, which in turn ll protect me instead! They are such warm, friendly big boys who will eagerly play catching with u, swim in sea as they are borne swimmers n oh, their drooling expression for food is to die for. =P

Lastly, I would like to have a piano in the house! I think one of the regrets in my life is I have not learnt any musical instrument. I wana learn playing piano so much!!! It ll be amazing to churn out lovely tunes all by myself~ WOAH

I would also enroll my children to learn piano, ballet or anything that he/she fancies~ I took art lessons when I was a child but too bad it was a disaster. However, it did impart me the ability to view life from a different perspective. =)

Okie, enough for my day dream for today. I will work hard for my future! Gambatte!!! ^^

2007-06-04T00:08:00.000+08:00

Some time back, i badly wanted to get rid of moles on my face, to change my luck for the better. Technically speaking, i have 2 moles on my face. However, unluckily, i found out they are GOOD moles!!!

Position 6
A mole here indicates intelligence, creativity and skill as an artist. Your artistic talent can bring you wealth, fame and success. It also indicates wealth luck, but this can only be fully realized if you follow your heart rather than stick to conventional means of making a living. Success will come if you are brave.

Wow, this explains why i started writing with my left hand first, till my parents buay tahan me n switched me back. However, sometimes i still have the urge to do that. I also have a secret dream to be a singer/dancer, my only console is nowadays artists do not earn much either. =X My target in life is to learn at least 1 musical instrument: piano and/or guitar.

Position 21 This is a good mole, as it suggests plenty to eat and drink throughout your life. This mole also brings fame and recognition.

This prolly explains why i eat every 5-6hrs. I have rather big appetite but i go for variety so sushi or buffet are perfect for me. Although i eat rather slow, i can eat a large amount of different foodie! ^^ A high metabolism is not really a good thing when u wake up middle of nite wanting food n there is NO food around. Also, it is a heavy expenditure, regardless who is paying for it.

Mole: pls pls pls dun get rid of moi~~~ ^^

FINE~

2007-05-24T03:22:00.000+08:00

Recently got food poisoned...

Kind of thinking wat my """fren""" said abt mixing rice w black soya sauce n butter is delicious, i further added in fried egg w fishies n vege, mapo toufu w minced meat n radish w meat soup for supper. U know to wash a lot of dishes at nite isnt v intelligent? So i smartly did it in Korean style lor~~~ ROJAK

HELL, i puked for 3 consecutive nite!!! *brrrra brrrra* (coz 1 of the days i went to eat claypot rice HAHA) End up paying 40+ for my med bill n 6 types of medicine (fever, tummy upset, tummy gas, nauseous, giddy, diarrhoea) Sian, my first time failure after experimenting w my foodie. Used to put choco marsh mellows inside maggie mee n still alright leh...

Worst thing for this is no more oily or spicy food for near future. This doesn't help when one has craving for LAKSA, BLACK PEPPER CRAB n CHILLI FROG LEGS, especially when people eat in front of u!

Luckily chocolate is not out of the list ya~ ^^

milo powder w apple, obviously milo powder is the MAIN item, banana is betta than apple actually...inspired by Royce Nama~

When ill, i juz take it as a vacation, coz i know nothing can be done either when i'm resting~

my queensize bedsheet + poster + bolster all so fit!!! Also, my bear n rabbit are oso chocolate color.

SMART HOR! ^^

2007-05-05T17:30:00.000+08:00

Picture: A1 Bah Ku Teh + meat + raddish + carrot + vege + clam...

3 steps to cook maggie mee.

1) Boil water till you c lovely bubbles/effervescence. Pour in seasoning & noodle to let the flavour get in. Take out only the ¾ cooked noodles into a bowl to let it cool down & become QQ.
2) Put other ingredients in: seafood then meat then vegetable (I dun like my vege to be too soggy & YES most vege can be eaten raw after careful cleansing). Pour them out into the bowl.
3) Add an egg into the stove and wait till ¾ cooked. Pour the egg on top of the bowl with the piping hot soup.

Result: A tasty, QQ noodles with meat/seafood, chunky vege & a lovely sunshine eggie inside piping hot soup! ^^ Satisfaction guaranteed. =)

2007-05-03T00:05:00.000+08:00

Recently a lot things happened around me...

My family is'nt the same anymore. =( I used to think marriage is forever n divorce only happens in American family setting. (I used to believe in abstinance oso but anyway) Well, i guess not anymore, because it can happen anywhere even besides u...

My dad was cheated of his salary in the past until his company collapsed n his boss declared bankrupt. I admire him to pluck up his feet again n set up his own company. However, due to the low demand of the market, his business fails badly. Nowadays, he smokes, drinks a lot and plays PC games everyday. Sometimes, he gets drunk pretty badly n becomes violent to us. We persuaded him to choose another job n work but he insisted to continue.

My other family members are not doing well too. My parental grandma is sick n she has chronical disease history. Also, my maternal grandpa n uncle went for operations seperately for diabetes n high blood pressure. We had financially assisted in the best of our ability.

My mum has juz walked into my room to tell me she's too tired n wana end the misery once n for all. I was so helpless n afraid but had to hide it well. I'm the oldest among my cousins n most educated so far. Yet, my ability is so little: I can only work as part-timer in lowly ranked jobs or teach tuition. Also, I have rented out my room to earn some income for my family. Although I had started earning my allowance since jc, I still consume a big portion for my tertiary education.

Money, how to earn it quickly? I really really hope all my family members n relatives ll live well n free frm such pain & suffering. I'm willing to do anything for it to happen. Kind of detached from frenz n people I care recently n cry ever so easily. Being a single child, guess the years down my road would be tougher: supporting parents, grandparents, children, study loan, housing loan, car loan... Heck, that is life!

*I need my guardian angel to guide my direction. Will u finally appear in my dream pls? The star has twinkled off her light n needs a new direction*

2007-04-10T01:04:00.000+08:00

Juz a little story for today's entry...

Once, there used to be a happy little gal who is well loved by her parents. Recently, some things changed in her family...
Her father's biz started to fail. He begins to get drunk and return late at night. Unknown of wat is around him, he gibberishly spouts out nonsense and even beats his family members up. Once, the gal's arm was almost fractured by his constant grabbing. ;(
Her mother begins to nag more and more. She listens to her calls, looks at her hp, pc, letters, diary, tracks down all her contacts and even stalks her a few times. She wont believe the gal is either in sch or giving tuition. In fact, she wana take control of the gal fully by knowing every single thing she does, her whereabouts, her fren's contacts, her thoughts, her secrets...
The gal is generally v guai. She doesn't smoke, drink, club, fight, squatter away money, take drug, sex or return home after 12. Although she's quite lazy, she still studies before quiz, exams and never receive any tuition hereself. Also, she earns her own pocket money for all her spending on food, clothes, travel, daily products, dental fee etc.
Yet, they reported police once she came back almost 1am coz of supper. Not that she din wana report, her hp was low batt despite her calls to home. This reminds of her that her mum called all her classmates up when she returned home 6pm in sec sch. She din own a hp till jc and she was merely studying in the lib. After that fateful day, her mum opens her door w/o permission every 2-3 hrs to check her out or calls her every hr outside.
The gal's also not allowed to hv any bf till uni grad. Sad to say, thy already planned her life for her since she's the only daughter. They wan her to study well and get a good job. As for bf and marriage, they can easily matchmake her to some guys they fancy and would provide for her.

(Pls, I dun like to complain tt much abt my life as I treat it as a gift. Juz treating my blog as Auntie Agony for tonight to destress before examination. Grrr~ ^^)

p/s This teddy v cute hor?^^ Juz had a glimpse of it at Boon Lay interchange n it disappeared forever! *cry*

(Disclaimer: I juz posted on my blog to rant out my stress, not to complain to anyone. So use ya brain n dun tell me 1) you think my family perfect meh 2) you are really so chiam meh )

School holiday break goes so fast!!! Don't really have time to enjoy it lor. =( Here are some pic taken at Sentosa! =)

Some stupid facilities there.

Beach boys: well-built, tanned, sunny... *drool*

Cooling blue water with soft white sand. (nothing rhymes here)

Lots dead bodies lying around to be pancaked by Mr Sun.

Some stupid furry "hot" doggies.

Okie, lets go some swim babe~

Before that I din know dogs can swim man! Why cats cant? =(

I like the shimmery effect for this pic, not the guys.

Nothing much happened recently, juz some foodie pic to spice things up. I guess I've the potential to b a glutton~ ^^

My fav combo in Swensen~ Gold rush!!!

Top 5, most economical choice of 5 ice cream. Simplicity is good!

Beef steamboat. They carve the mushroom n carrot till so cute! ^^

I think the egg white helps to soften the beef. (see I smart)

End product: tender beef slice + satisfied cat.

I *heart* the eggie of crab~ Got fish meat inside as well v appetizing!

This dessert v creative looks like apple but tastes otherwise.

The stalk and core is made of choco thus I hurriedly dig them up n destroy my apple! ^^ The green part is peppermint.

My fav jap dish is...wasabi!!!

Total damage: Green tea, Salmon Sashimi, Beef steamboat, Crab eggie rice, Chiwamushi, Softshell crab handroll, Seasoned octupus, Apple dessert.

Then, we went on to eat Nacho+lemon tea combo 7/11 and my fav fish soup!!! That's all for my dinner, (if someone does'nt stop me) ^^

Yippie, gonna get a new hair cut & dye tomorrow before CNY!!! ^^ Will post my pic by then so stay tuned.
Recently v stressed so I kinda developed a new hobby which is to eat! ^^ Yesterday juz went to eat Hokkien prawn mee, Kimchi soup + rice, Tori Q sticks, Crystal Jade chicken wing, marshmellows, mint+choc chips ice cream for dinner... Not really a lot leh coz mostly eating for fun mah~ My frenz oso said how come everytime seeing you you r eating? HAHA. Okie my current weight is 42 kg which is like a constant no. alr.
Also something maddening happened in school la. One idiot bumped into me outside Mac on Thursday 1.15pm n spilled milo on me la!!! Stained my fav white skirt whch is so hard to wash off and my darling Sony Ericsson (w 3 speakers) lor. Besides the point I've one marketing presentation in evening. N this jerk juz see see nothing happened to himself n happily strolled away!!! HELLO SIR, I'm drenched coz of u n u hv the authority juz hit & run me ah?!?! Is a SORRY so difficult to get from ya MCP mouth since it is you who rushed and bumped into me? I was so shocked at tt moment not entirely due to the incident but more of his manner. For one, I long ago gave up to expect good-looking guys around in NTU le now this juz add on to show their ugliness. I would say guys r generally nice but STILL got some jerks around. So, gals watch out!

I'm really disappointed in teaching tuition alr. My only tutee is at Clementi whch is like 1 hr plus away per trip and I charge him 180/month for sec 3 chinese.

1) I gave him 2 free books as gift when we first met.
2) I bought his assessment book which was lying with me for a long time.
3) He went overseas for 2 weeks.
4) His father is upset over new schedule (5.30-7.30 comparing to 4.30-6.30) although we set the schedule temporary last year. He said I should be the one accommodating to his timing and do not give him pressure. In fact, I even told my tutee we would set the schedule again once school begins for both of us. Anyway, I dropped my UE which is meant for my minor and planned my timetable specially for him (venue lousy, timing lousy).
5) He cancelled the tuition as that was a public holiday & made me gone a wasted trip.
6) He cancelled it again when the next day he needed to fly off early.
7) He cancelled it again & again coz the next day he's going to have an integrated program briefing. When I requested to teach again for after 1.5-month gap, he said he could only confirm with me tomorrow if his briefing ends early.
8) Subsequently, he cancelled it again claiming the next day he has a CCA meeting.
9) Today, he cancelled it again last minute in the morning, although I’ve messaged him yesterday to remind him the tuition, saying that he will have a Founder’s day rehearsal.
10) He also took a long time to answer me whether he needs tuition during Chinese New Year week.

LIKE THAT HOW TO TEACH!!!
