School blues

I must have left my brain at home! Hahaha... Somehow, I find this semester's modules to be exceptionally difficult and it's hard to concentrate in class... prolly still in holiday mood now... I've decided to drop drug discovery and design as it is quite demanding and it's not exactly my cup of tea...sighs... I dunno wad other unrestricted electives I should strategically take and hopefully I can get my cs100 :X

2 days before 2010

I'm back after a lengthy break :) It's my school holidays now and I'm hooked on korean dramas! (as usual)

I'll start by blogging about my new year resolutions for 2010 :)

1) I will limit myself to eating chicken rice once a week.
2) I will exercise once a week too!
3) I will spend less time on mafia wars on facebook.
4) I'll try to adopt a healthy lifestyle.
5) I'll be more chemistry focussed :)))
6) and I'll try to control my unhealthy cravings...
7) I'll try to be more adventurous and less timid.

But I'll still continue watching dramas :) Hahaha...

OUT!
back to mafia wars...

The 1 week holidays was spent studying mostly. Haha... Managed to go to JB to eat and also to Bernie's birthday party. And catch two movies- Ingluorious Basterds and Accident. I personally didn't quite like Accident and this reaffirms my belief that asian movies lack substance.

Its great that I've taken both my mid-terms yesterday... so I'm relatively stress free this week xcept that I got to catch up on lots of other stuff. School has been quite boring nowadays and I can't wait to watch Funny people.

OUT!

2009-09-17T03:35:00.000-07:00

I'm hooked to Mafia Wars! I'm super addicted to it lah! Hahaha... To my dear friends, please join my mafia on facebook!

Just had lab today. I'm starting to dislike it already :X The feeling of being sooo lost... I don't really enjoy doing lab work.

Made a big decision a few days ago to give York a miss because I couldn't match the core courses and hence I rejected the offer. I was tempted and conflicted during those few days. I was greatly unsettled and the worse thing was that I had to study for two mid-terms and brood about whether I should go or not.

Meanwhile, I have another decision to make regarding project work.

21

finally! Not that I've been waiting very long for this... but I do feel an extra sense of responsibility and I feel matured today. Just today. Hahaha... Luckily I don't have to go to school later, so that I can spend most of the day at home and savour every moment before it passes.

I had a great party on Sunday. Tabby, Clara, Kian Zhi ant ty were awesome and super helpful. The inexperienced me wouldn't be able to manage without them. Now I realise that it is super difficult to organise a party and I would certainly appreciate going for another party more!!!

I'm legal baby!

I'm so red like a lobster! Went cycling at ECP today in the afternoon. It was really breezy and it wasn't even scorching hot and yet I'm roasted! After a chicken rice lunch at PP, went down to Blk 201 with kh to make her spectacles before rushing off to meet clara for the mani and pedicure. As my feet were super dirty (from playing in the sea), I was a bit embarassed as there may be some sand inside the cuticles. Decided to go for the classic pedicure after some urging from Clara. It was sooo shiok and ticklish (my first). After that, I rushed down to orchard to meet the rest for some shopping. Legs super sore and aching by the end of the day. What an eventful day today coupled with great weather!

I feel uber tired now.

OUT!

If only I can muster up some courage to say sorry to you.

2009-08-23T07:20:00.000-07:00

7 more days to....

I need to get an outfit and get my party stuff! I'm all jittery.... I keep thinking about the day everyday! I hope it goes well and everybody will have a ton of fun!

I hate mondays and tuesdays now. Those are the stressful days and the headache days. Lots of lectures- really intense stuff.

Went for the ice cream buffet at ion orchard and I was defeated. I think I ate the least which was so unlike me as I don't have a sweet tooth. Loved the gelato but didn't get to the chocolate fondue. That was how lousy I was. In all, I tried 10 small scoops of ice cream with gelato with lots of breakfast cereal and not even a whole piece of waffle. Swensens is so smart. But didn't like their service though. They were seriously understuffed. As a result, it affected the service and the ultimate experience. I started feeling hungry when I reached home and I think I will stay away from ice cream for the next few months.

I'm currently playing this uber lame game called farm land on facebook. It's not even exciting but I'm addicted to it. Sheesh...Okay, I'm procrastinating.. I'm runing away from my work. Hahaha..

Time flies..

and 3 months of holidays are gone just like that. I've started school reluctantly this week. I'm still in a holiday mood. Was sick for the whole of last week and am recovering now. It's nice to see everyone back in school again.

I'm having pre-party jitters because I'm such a worry-wart. I worry about everything really. From how much to cater to whether the food is good or the weather, and then I think about whether people will be bored or if the party will be too quiet etc etc... and I'm really sorry for any inconvenience caused as I've changed the date of the party. Very very very sorrrrrrryy.... I'm such a noob in party planning. sighs.

Many many thanks to Diana for helping me book the function room :D

Over the 3 months, due to my 'unemployment', I managed to watch many dramas- Korean and Taiwanese. Also, I listen to a few Chinese music now- something that I rarely listen to because of my lack in interest and exposure. I've watched BOF, East of Eden, Miss No Good, Queen of Housewives, 1L of tears, My Queen, Couple or trouble, Shining inheritance (super good- a must watch!), Full house, We got married, Knock knock loving you, Cinderella man and giggolo wannabe(the movie). So many right????

Whole lotta fun!

For the first time, I drank Vodka ystd at Eileen's party. And surprisingly, I didn't get drunk! It was fun playing the games after dinner and Darrell was such a good sport! 21st birthdays are best for class gatherings esp when everybody is so busy. Hahahaha...

Random stuff

I tried the Jajangmyun from Ding Tai Fung already (after my horrible experience in a food court a few years back) and was quite disappointed. I guess I really can't eat Korean food... Haha... and even this is a chinese version..haha...

Met up with Clara ystd for dinner at Manpuku (the food was okay only la--- I had high expectations of it) and a pedicure.. We went to a new place this time round. Wasn't really expecting much but I was slightly impressed lah. The service was okay but not as good as the previous one at S11. I quite like the art work but I'm not so sure about clara...hahaha...

Next up-----> hot date on sat and eileen's party on sun! Whee...

Diana's birthday party

was fun fun fun! Learned how to play Indian poker and had a great time teasing Eileen. Hahaha... I'm actually surprised that Xianhui is very bad at directions! Goodness... Hahaha... Next up, Eileen's party!!!!! Had fun catching up with the rest and talking to the guys. Hmmm...Time flies when you are having fun.

Today's plans were cancelled and I had the time to go to Tampines 1 to walk around. Chanced upon a celeb (Shaun Chen) and members of the wp. I got the impression that he looked like he didn't want to be recognized- just like a certain star.

Just read on the Internet that SS501 is coming to S'pore at the end of the year... hmmm....

I feel like a gluton!! Hahaha...

Went to ecoparadise with Eileen and Diana just now. It was nice to talk to one of our 'junior' working there. The thing is, I had so many mosquito bites on my arms and legs from my trip to Sungei Buloh with my friend and one of the staff was exceptionally sweet. She started applying for me one of the products that they sell- on my arms and legs for the mosquito bites. I was quite embarrassed but touched at the same time because she was really kind...

Went to Amore with Eileen for the shoulder massage and I giggled whenever the masseuse started rubbing my shoulders coz it was ticklish. Hahaha... That's my weak spot...

I think I should start excercising more...Hahaha...

I've finished watching Bu Liang Xiao Hua- not that funny...it's an okay show if you can stand the female lead's voice...

I have finished watching East of Eden already! This is an exceptionally long drama. Its good overall, just that it has lots of twists and turns- definitely not for the weak hearted or for those looking for a short drama to watch. Incredibly sad show- I was crying at the last episode; I was so sad about the male lead- song seung heon. Haiz. The ending would be perfect if he hadn't... But nonetheless, it was a heartwrenching episode. My t-shirt was soaked with tears.

Song seung heon is such a hottie. He really stands out. I used to prefer won bin over him in autumn tale, but now I think he's darn handsome.

Sent Clara off at the airport yesterday. Hope she will have a great time at China.

I'm not sure what drama I should watch next, I think I'll take a break first before starting another one.

I like Kris Allen in American Idol better than Adam Lambert. Adam is nice to watch becoz he's a good performer, a real entertainer. But when I listen to his songs without watching him, his voice don't really stand out. Kris Aleen don't really have the stage presence but his songs are chillingly awesome, songs like Falling etc- its like the feel is directly translated off the stage when I first watch it, and I feel the same thing when I listen to it. For Adam, everything is magical on stage-but I don't get the same feeling just by purely listening to him.

Finally!

The 3 months break is here again. I had a great time during the past week. I've watched Boys Over Flowers already- and its an awesome show! I'm currently watching East of Eden right now- which is a super long show; but its nice! Builds up really well...

I had a blast at Yvonne's house today. Yv's such a great host! Lots of food etc... and the wii-ing is so much fun.. I've always liked bowling with the wii, but now I like tennis too! Now my right arm aches terribly due to over- exertion...Hahaha...

I'm not sure how I'm going to spend the hols--prolly working and watching DVDs...Hahaha..

Plans for tomorrow are scrapped- so I'll prolly continue with east of eden.

The slackiest 2 days...

After studying very very hard (ha ha!) for on fri night to sat morning for thermodynamics test, I gave myself a weekend break. I hate thermodynamics and it is the hard-est topic for this sem... ewww... Managed to get through the gruelling 3 tests week and had my last lab session. Everything is coming to an end soon but exams are round the corner. Haiz. Handed in the facebook project and the cockroach project is near completion :) Now I'm left with the cyber security project which is due in 2 weeks time. This sem was a crazy one because of my heavy load (23AUs!)... I'll not do that again.... but I've made many new friends and got to know some better. :)

After the longest 2 hour test on sat, we went to jp to chill. Watched Departures and it is a really touching show- my second Jap movie in a month! I wanna watch Detroit metal city too but I shan't be indulgent. The party stops in a few hours time :) haha.... Went to support Clara for her dance performance on saturday night and I saw a few friends there. Was really shagged by the time I reached home as I had 3 hours of sleep only the night before.

Attended ZQ's 21st birthday party today. The settings were really nice...had the country club feel even if it wasn't. Stopped by Ikea on our way back and I bought a pillow because it looked so fluff and full of life! Hahaha.... I'm watching ToGetHer now-the episode that I missed yesterday and it is really nice. Love it.

As I've said- the party ends in a few hours time, and hence, I'm gonna do my lab report later and start studying and catching up on the lectures that I had pon..... Hahaha...

Holidays are over... Haiz..

Didn't really manage to accomplish much during the hols...lots of project meetings, to studying to procrastinating and slacking. But I did manage to catch Suspect X and Harvey. Both were good shows and a great way to rest and relax.... and it's back to the same mad rush routine for 7 more weeks.

I hope Man Utd wins the carling cup later!

2009-02-23T03:38:00.000-08:00

Holidays aren't holidays when.....

1) There are 3 projects to complete..
2) Meetings to attend.
3) Tests to study for..
4) There is no time to watch Korean dramas and slack..
5) I have to go back to school..
6) I'm always on google docs most of the time
7) Looking through journals and databases
8) I'm neglecting the people around me
9) I have to keep cockroaches as pets.

Aargh...I hate this 1 week break but I desperately need it to catch up on physical chem and projects. Good news: I managed to get the cockroaches! and nope, I didn't catch them with my bare hands. I trapped them using some ingenious method suggested by a stranger. Now I have a proud collection of 5 cockroaches stored in Diana's fish tank :) I fed the cockroaches with sugee and cornflakes. Good right? Hahahaha...

I've decided against doing summer research for this hols but I'm going to try applying for no logical reason and see how. Haiz. Does this make sense?

I'm quite stressed with my Hw project right now... It's like project work all over again! Haiz. It's difficult to think of ideas that fit the project.

Visiting at Eileen's house was great. We were overwhelmed by the amount of food and I learnt how to play Dai dee and mahjong. Thank you teachers! Hahaha... Mahjong is quite addictive hahaha... I had fun winning- like xian would call it- beginner's luck. Hahaha...

We had dinner at ThaiVillage to celebrate my bro's birthday juz now and it was great! I love ThaiVillage! We had chilli crabs with mantou, sambal kangkong (my all time fav), deer's meat, Hong Kong fish (that was super good) and chicken wrapped with banana leaf. It's one of the rarest times that all of the dishes are so delicious whereby I can eat all of them. Hahaha...

I have a new toy recently and that is the PSP. It is also very addictive- I love playing drift racing- It's funny how it piqued my interest in driving and shaken my resolve not to learn to drive. I'm still not learning though. It's so fun racing and I guess it's compatible with the competitive streak that's in me. I don't think I was so into any game like this before. When I close my eyes at night I see the roads in drift racing. It must feel good to be in a F1 car...

I love get smart the movie. It's hilarious!

I am quite stressed!!!!!!!!!!

Latest news: I dropped COM205 for CS802- Issues in Science & Technology- something that I know nothing about!

I am so active for this sem's STARS! Hahaha... from dropping cbc933- green chem- to adding some annoymous eee course- to getting cyber security which I appealed for- to adding COM205, about public speaking- to dropping it in the last 15 minutes and adding CS802 as an elective (instead of Prescribed) in the last 3 mins. Phew!!!!!! I added it as an elective because I want to take another mod- hp802- sth that I coveted for very long and it unsettled me- for next sem... Decided to drop COM205 even though I really really really like it and I think it would help me in the future because it's quite stressful.

There is a great imbalance in the allocation for AUs for my lab because the lab is worth 2AUs but we spent close to 6 hours in the lab and my weekends stuck with excel- trying to figure out how the datas fit in to form a complete picture- most of my anxiety and stress comes from here...

I had a great time at Shyan's chalet! I had fun playing 2 truths and a lie and I revealed one of my most embarassing things that I did- which I would not reveal normally. What was I thinking? Hahaha....

The first week-Friday

I did a silly thing today. I came to school for a tutorial which was not scheduled to start! Now I'm waiting for the INSTEP talk before going for a loooong lunch before going for another lecture which is just 1 hour long. (Which I originally planned to skip- to have another day off).

A piece of good news- I appealed for Cyber Security mod and I got it! But I dunno what it is like- and there's a lecture right after the lecture that I was planning to skip. So it's good that I came afterall. Hahaha..

My timetable is okay generally- just that I have many long days. Hopefully, I can cope with the very heavy load this sem.

STARS

is such a bother! Now I'm just randomly adding UEs that can fit my timetable without even knowing what it is all about. I just changed my timetable from a 4 day week to 5 days week. Hopefully it works out... I don't like the first 2 weeks of school as I have to do so many administrative stuff that equates to lots of stress... On top of STARS, there's appeals to do, information talks to go to, new lects that u wanna take but cannot get but u have to go and see how it is etc etc... and worse still if it does not fit nicely with the timetable- meaning lots of breaks in between, going home late etc etc.... I am actually quite interested in the KitKat Investopedia but some of the talks clash with the modules. Haiz.

I taking this module that I've been coveting since last sem- HS811-issues in crime and punishment. It is actually quite deep and philosophical and requires lots of independent thinking and analysis-it's fun but will be better if it's non-examinable.

I am taking a communication studies module this sem also- it's about speech and argumentation, more about public speaking and so on and so forth. I'm not sure about this- about whether I'll be comfortable talking in front of so many people but I guess it's easier than singing right?

I just added an eee mod too.... electricity in our daily life on a whim coz there were vacancies. I wanted this mod- cyber security from eee too... but there were no vacancies... I think cyber security is cool becoz then I'll be able to understand the types of viruses and malwares and I'll know what to do then.

Hello 2009!

It's back to school tomorrow and i'm excited! But I am still having STARs problem and I hope and can get the courses that I want :) I'm torn between HS811 which I got and HP802 which I want. I want both but I dunno which is good for me.

Went to ecoparadise with Clara and Tab on fri. It was a great experience to talk about the past and to chill.

Best wishes for 2009 to everyone!

I am a little bit disappointed with my results. Actually, more than I would like to admit. It's unthinkable but yet, I didn't have much confidence for this sem's results. I'm just thankful that it wasn't disastrous. But I'm comforted that I tried my very best but things just didn't go as I planned and hoped that it would be. Too much of uncertainties... I would never know how well I did for Korean since I SUed it. But I hope it was a wise choice. It was a gamble which could have gone either way....

It's time to stop dwelling about the past and work towards the future, making good decisions and being less distracted....

All I can say is.............................................Darn you... O sole mio!

23rd Dec 2008

Went to the Tampines Sports Complex for badminton with my friends in the morning. Very long time since I last exercised.

Caught Twilight with Tab. It's an okay show- a bit too cheesy, lacks a stronger storyline. Then after that, we went to Kallang Leisure Park (together with Clara) for some ice skating. We were laughing about the below $5 gifts that we were supposed to buy and Clara said she hoped she won't get Tab's gift-after hearing what Tabby bought in the last minute.

After the skating, we were supposed to randomly pick a number that corresponds to someone else's gift. While waiting in the line, we were scrutinising the wrapping of all the presents on the table, trying to tell which is a not-so-desirable present and which looks good.

During this time, Clara reiterated that she hoped she din't get Tab's present and in retort, Tabby said she hoped Clara gets her present. It was then when I remarked that the smallest present on the table will prolly be a small glas cup or something- think those soju glass cups- something that I wouldn't wanna get. So when it was our turn, Tabby's wish came true- Clara got Tabby's present and Tabby got someone else's present. It took a while for them to find the present that I was supposed to get- while they were searching high and low I was secretly wishing that it would be something big and good.

To us, we think big presents are the better presents. I mean- if u see a small tiny present, what can you think of? It can't possibly be a ring from Soo Kee Jewellery.... It would prolly be an accessory at best and something unthinkable at worst maybe. And no, my wildest fantasies did not come true. I got that tiny present, the one that I predicted would be a small glass cup.

We laughed at the presents that we got while opening them and Clara said that I got the worst present- which I agreed. Hahahaha... well, initially.... It was a bottle labelled "Cool Slime". It reminded me of the slimy stuff we used to play in primary school and I was throughly disappointed. I offered to give the present to Tab's and Clara's bros. But their sisters rejected my kind offer. Hahahahaha.... Clara got two tins of sweets from Tabby and Tabby received a flash light and some IQ games.

When I saw the slime, I immediately assumed what it was- for playing purposes. But Clara read the label and pointed out that it is actually a playful cleaning agent. A newly hired secret cleaning agent for keypad and keyboard cleaning. Immediately, I took a liking to the present as I realised its practicality and better worth (then what I had conceived initially).

and then the anti-climax.....

Clara had a slight migrane by the time we left the mall. The bus ride made it worse and we cut short our trip to take a cab back home. Clara vomitted in the taxi but thank goodness Tabby brought a plastic bag and the cabbie was very understanding about it.

But overall, it was a fun day.

PS: I received another present and guess what- it's another small present. I would be lying if I say that I was over the moon at its size. But I should know better not to judge a present by its size or wrapping. I haven't opened it yet though- keeping my fingers crossed till 12am in the morning...

Merry Christmas!

BKK- Pattaya Trip 13-18th Dec

We had a great time and the trip was well worth every dollar spent. We visited the Sriricha Tiger zoo, the crocodile farm, the snake farm, Dream world, the safari and the elephant zoo. Not forgetting the aqua show (transvesitite show). I have the impression that Pattaya is more of a sleazy place brimming with night life. The elephant, tiger and croc shows were entertaining but I liked Dream World the best. Lots of rides and Go-Kart! Our 3 meals were taken care of for the whole time as it is a package. The food was good. We visited the wan-ton mee street stall for the second last and the last night. The stall's still there after 2 years, together with the omelette stall. I had the delicious grilled chicken at Chesters Grill at MBK. It was a great experience overall.

Latest about the fate of the mynah. It fell into the toilet bowl as I was told- but it didn't drown. My father finally decided to catch the mynah with a plastic bag and set it free. No, it wasn't flushed away. Hahahahaha......

MINAHS INVASION!

I just came back from lunch with my father and to my horror I saw 2 minahs in the kitchen. The kitchen was in a bit of a mess. 1 was sitting on the window ledge and the other was inside the kitchen- sitting on the window ledge too but is blocked by the sliding windows. So it's trapped. The minahs were communicationg with each other prolly strategising the escape route for the baby minah that was trapped inside the house. It can't really fly see, so it's a problem to me at least. After several unsuccessful attempt to getr itself out, it clung to a nearby cloth by the end. It went to my toilet next. ANd now, even while typing this- the baby minah is still stuck as it can't fly out. My father insists on letting it learn how to fly. Now, the mother minah is looking for its offspring- to the extent of going to my window ostensibly looking for its baby. How? I'm scared. Hahahaha.

Latest- The mama minah is inside my house- to my horror! again. This time with something in its mouth. It's taking food to its baby. It came in despite us closing the window- through the small toilet window no doubt. Eew.... Now I can't find the baby minah in my toilet anymore. Where did it go? I'm leaving my room and windows closed for the next 2 days.

AAAAhhhhhh... It's trying every window in my house!!!!!!!!! Trying to come in....GROSS.... I just hope the baby minah can get out soon so that this episode will be over.

I'm leaving for Tab's chalet soon!!!! Yippeeee. Bye bye MINAHS!

Oh Crap (2)

As I lay on my bed thinking about random stuff, first about my friends, then about Tab's birthday chalet and finally thinking about birthdays. Realization hit me. I quickly jumped out of my bed and grabbed my handphone, which was lying on the desk. I realised that I missed Xian's birthday! I was quite sure that it was in november but I was hoping that that it was in december. I am really really really sorry for missing out. Really. I don't usually miss out on dates. Aargh... How time flies. 2 days before the korean paper, and now 2 weeks and 1 day late. Aargh... Usually I store these dates on my handphone and I will get an alert at 8.31am in the morning. It could be that I didn't turn on my phone for the day or I didn't turn it on in the morning.

After the exams, I have been spending most of my time at home- reading and watching shows. I am a homely person..hahaha... I don't usually go out of Tampines unless I'm supposed to.

But I won't be at home for almost the whole of this week. I predict a busy week ahead. Haha. I have to pack my clothes for Tab's chalet stay-over for thurs and fri. On Sat, I have violin lessons in school before I leave home for the airport for..... BKK... hahaha... My friends have warned me how dangerous it is now. I hope it won't be that chaotic over there. And I can't wait to have the lip smacking grilled chicken over at MBK.

I've just finished reading a book entitled life expectancy by Dean Koontz. I'm not a fan of his but this book is really entertaining. I finished the 500 odd pages in 1 day. It's an interesting book. Beyond interesting actually. Life expectancy is not defined by how long you live but rather what you expect from life.

It's nice to stay at home and read a novel for the whole day while lying on my bed :) I'm happy that Cristiano Ronaldo is the footballer of the year. Haha... I was expecting some major upset especially after some of his recent performances.

I have been feeling weird lately. I need to keep my emotions in check and stop picking at everything. Haiz.

Last week was a week of.......... trying new things!

I went to ecoparadise with my mother last friday. It's near the swimming complex and has a Japanese feel to it. Really calming and peaceful ambience. We went there for the hot bed therapy. It's a detox place... so we were given this antioxidant drink that tasted like water and I was sceptical (still am). But before the antioxidant water, we went to change into their outfit. A baggy looking pyjamas that felt like towels. It was a bit scary to see females perspiring all over with red faces. So after drinking, we went into this 50 degree Celsius room that had calming jap music playing in the background. The floor was very very hot. Stepping on the tiles was terribly hot for someone like me who is not really used to bathing in warm water. We laid the towel down and lied on top of it for about 40mins. ( I kept looking at the clock on the wall though, counting.. and waitinf for time to fly past). It was not as bad as you imagine lah...it's bearable. After which, we drank pineapple juice from small soju glasses that tasted a bit like alcohol- strong and a bit bitter (I'm not a fan of pineapples).

Overall, it was a great experience :)

The unmentioned weekdays was otherwise spent watching taiwanese and korean dramas. I watched Romantic Princess-yes, the one with Wu Zhun- he's a bit overrated? Oops...
and I watched Hello! Miss... the korean drama that competed with my favourite Witch Amusement for viewership last year. Both are good in their own way...just that witch amusement gives me a very lasting impression, it touches my soul and makes me yearn for..... Ok, enough of he drama! It's time to make plans for exercising!

In conclusion, I still love Korean dramas. I think it is something different and of course I can catch some of the vocab- now that I've learnt a little bit of Korean... My friend once told me that Korean dramas are more of a fantasy, it dosen't happen in real life- which is quite true. Maybe that's the reason I like it. It's not so real unlike the Taiwanese dramas (that has some kind of flavour which you can feel with it). Very hard to describe lah... It's like watching another boring channel 8 show as compared to a korean drama that knows how to mess with the viewers' feelings.

On another note, the little nyonya on channel 8, 9pm really opens me up to my own culture. I remamber doing a project about the peranakans when I was in primary school and I had a lot of help back then- my grandmother, aunt, counsin and my mother etc etc. I think I did a superficial job as compared to this show.. really, all I did was to search for books in the library, pictures, took some photographs from my grandmother's home- the beaded slippers, the krosang and kebaya. To be able to watch what practising the culture was really like is fantastic. To quote my mother...." if my mama were still alive, she would have lots to comment about"....

On a side note... I'm thinking of.... skipping the camp for violin beginners :(

We went to this family KTV lounge at Chinatown yeaterday and although the room is quite small, the song selections are up to date and quite high tech also, touch screen monitor to choose the song! I had a great time singing english and chinese songs, though I'm ashamed to say I couldn't read almost 50% of the characters coz they were fan ti zi. But it was cool following how zq sang and listening to the chinese music-something that I would definitely not get exposed to. Hahaha... After 5 gruelling hours of singing, we headed down to Maxwell Food Centre for dinner. The food is good- just that the famous curry puff store was closed.

I managed to buy David Archuleta's album from CD Rama Popular and it comes with a poster! Yay! The songs that I like are Crush, Angels and a little too not over you. As of now.

Watching HSM3 later... I can't wait. Hahaha....

I'm back!

After a 3 week hiatus? Many things happened during these 3 weeks... I sang o sole mio for my final presentation disastrously that I will never want to sing on stage again...Hahaha.... I'm almost done with my exams...I'm left with a korean paper on monday which I su-ed and hence, I'm not studying very hard. Hahaha....

And... I found out a webby from kh; its www.karaokeparty.com and it's so cool... all the updated songs and you get a score...hahaha... just that a microphone needs to be connected to the computer.

I went to the nearest music shop at tm a few days ago, hoping to get david archuleta's new album but it was sold out! I'm happy but disappointed. Happy because his album is so popular but disappointed because i can't listen to his single, Crush, anytime i want. Haiz.

Meanwhile, I've found another song that I like, it's called lovebug by the Jonas brothers. Check this out, quite 1960s i think... haha... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PZ1Wh0jV-E

Over the last couple of weeks, I find myself being obsessed with Cristiano Ronaldo. I think he is a very good footballer but he's not just there yet. Having said that, what makes him popular is that he's quite good looking and self obsessed. Yes, his self obsession makes good story. Hahaha...

I'm back... and I'm still stressed.
I still do not know which modules to S/U. How?
I feel conflicted. There's 1 week left.
It's either Korean or business management.
I think both are manageable, but I just need to spend more time with them, which I can't.
I know that I can do it but I just don't wanna SU 1 of it.
It's a major flaw of mine, always wanting to hold on and not letting go. Aargh...
Frankly speaking, at this time, I've yet to come out with the 2 interviews that I need and a biz report.
I'm feeling nervous and jittery now.
Hopefully, I would be able to get the interviews out by the end of this week.
I've procrastinated for far too long.

Aargh!!!! I hate thursdays and fridays. I dread lab work. Aargh.. I can't seem to control my emotions nowadays... I mean, I get angry easily and I am petty. Haiz. Very frustrated this week. I feel like I'm in the messiest situation now and I just can't get myself out of it! I'm sick of inorganic chem which is damn difficult, organic chem which somehow needs lots of time which I don't have and the highly stressful, adrenalin pumping lab work that is worth 2 AUs only but I spend 6 hours every Friday jostling for instruments, feeling lost and helpless and having late lunch at 3.30pm. The grouchy, unhappy lab techs (some) aren't helping either. On top of that, spending 5 long hours trying to figure out how to do the stupid lab report that may or may not be correct. Damn!

I'm watching fated to love you it's a taiwanese drama and it's quite good. The male leads are gorgeous. Sadly, the story line is almost the same as goong, princess hours. Just that the roles are slightly different.

In goong, yoon eun hye (YEH) had to marry into the royal family to help her family settle some debts. But in this show, a lonely, unnoticeable girl marries into a rich family because she got pregnant by the rich and charming Ji Cun Xi. The storyline goes like this.... at first they loathed each other but grew to like each other as the show progresses (same as goong). Then, there is this charming third party male lead (KJH in goong, Baron Chen in this show) who will fall in love to the married female lead who feels hurt by their respective partner's ongoing torch for their girlfriends that they met before....they were forced to get married... Then the husband will be very mean to the wife while the third party will be sweet and patient, forever lending a listening ear to the female lead's grouses..... Then when the husband realises that he had actually fallen in love with the wife, there will be some love rivalry.... and the all too predictable love story ending will be that they lived happily ever after.

A great difference between korean and taiwanese dramas is the acting skills. Korean dramas tend to be quite unpredictable, just when you think sth is gonna happen, the director will prolly add a twist in the story. K-dramas are romantic also (almost fairy tale like). On the other hand, it is easier to watch taiwanese dramas becoz they are in chinese with english subtitles so its easier to follow. But the acting seems exaggerated at some points- almost childish. Maybe not convincing enough. Therefore, it has a little boring element in it. Although the storyline is predictable, but what separates them from a typical singapore drama is that the scriptwriter is very very creative. Keeps audience guessing what will happen next, while stirring up strong feelings and uncontrollable tears. I admit that Singapore dramas can stir these things up also lah, but those are controlled- feelings and tears.

On a random note, I feel obligated to help out for the very last time but I don't want to. I just can't help feeling guilty. I'm torn between duty to the committee and my own pride.

Today is the last day of the 1 week break and it feels like the holidays have just started! Aargh, I haven't really done anything serious yet. Monday's sleepover at Clara's hall was fantabulous.. It was fun; we did silly things and took lots of silly pictures. The Naan's gravy was delicious. 3 hours after dinner, we went out for supper and by then, for one of the rarest moments in my life, I felt sick and scared at the sight of food. It spilled over to tuesday. Hahaha...

On Friday, I went to help out at nafa and it was a night to forget.

On Saturday, after a disappointing sight reading violin session, I met up with the rest to attend Bernie's party. The girls went in kim hwee's car and the guys in chao liang's. Great party with lots of food, a great time to catch up with the rest. Watched the qualifying session on tv and fell asleep after that.

The holidays are here!

But I have tons of work to do and my violin to practice! I can play mary had a little lamb on the violin already! Although it's far from perfect lah!

I should take a hiatus from watching k-movies and dramas. Like finally. Ha. Just realised that K-movies are horrible; lousy storyline and everything. As for k-dramas, I won't have the time to watch it this week as I will be going to school for almost the whole week!

I'm having a sleepover at Clara's hall with Tabby later tonight but we are bringing her around NTU... mainly the libraries and of course, the special function toilet. Hahaha...

The following information is for Val....

Singpost:
1) 2kg air parcel post to Milan, Italy (w/o packaging)
est: $60.65 (Delivery 7 to 12 working days)

2) Speed post saver box (5kg) 33x23x23
$5 each box, $118.75 (2 to 4 working days).

Option 2 is better if you have lots of stuff...

We are singing Seasons of love by Rent for our GV17 presentation! We stayed back after our singing lesson and we went to this recording studio in the adm building. It was really cool. Just like the real recording studios you see in shows. It was quite fun rehearsing the song with my group.

We went to Pu Tien on my mother's birthday for dinner. It is this awesome place at Tampines Mall Basement, the restaurant is very well furnished. The ambience was something like a hotel restaurant with a grand reception. The food is okay lah, not bad, nothing bad to say about it.

Lately, I've been regretting some of the decisions that I've recently made. Aargh.... I'm torn. Should I continue being committed? I knew this is a sai-kang kind of thing, but... I felt used. I'm not really enjoying myself.

Blogging in school now... Just trying to kill some time before the AGM for drama starts. Feeling pretty tired (and down) after 2 tests today. This week will be a very busy week for me. Meetings plus tutorials plus submission for lab report and 6 hour lab. Having lab every week is no fun:( I had my first violin session last saturday. It wasn't very fun I should say.. 1 hour is hardly enough and because of some mix up, I'll only be getting my violin this saturday. Haiz. I guess I should stop whining here.

I ate 2 slices of chocolate cake in the canteen with kh, zq and hj. I suspect that the cake is baked by kh although they vehemently deny it. Haha.... Went to Geylang with Tabby and we walked around the shops. Had Arnold's for dinner and I ate half a spring chicken! The food is great... especially the mash potato. Hahaha. Afterwhich, I went home and had yet another slice of chocolate cake that my mother bought. Blowing the candles made me feel like I'm 6 again. Haha. Feeling really bloated and blessed.

Oops.

Just in case you were wondering how my performance went: It went okay but I was just too nervous. I did a solo performance without any background music. I couldn't hear myself but I guess people could tell that I was nervous. There were many fantastic performances on my performance day. Ha! It's unlucky in a way? There were some nice comments but I dunno if they were trying to be nice or did I sound quite good. But what I do know is that I forgotten some lyrics (almost the whole chorus) which I didn't tell anybody and nobody knew as I covered it up quite well. I skipped a few sentences and only those who knew the song quite well will be able to know.

I campaigned for the welfare officer post for drama. I was given 2 mins but I didn't prepare any script so I guess my speech lasted for about 30s? Which was highly unusual as unlike others, I didn't go all out to campaign for my cause. I dunno if I should feel disappointed or anything but I think that I won't be too upset if I didn't get the post also. Maybe it's because it's quite alien to me. But I hope Champio gets the post that she wants as she is up against strong competiton.

The First 3 Weeks of School

Exactly 1 more week till my turn to sing. I witnessed quite a handful of pro singers today. Haiz. I hope that I won't be too nervous next week. Hahaha....

My first lab session last friday was a disaster. I failed to get the ppt that I'm supposed to get. In the end, I spent 2 hours walking around the lab, 'monitoring' my friends. Thankfully my friends 'donated' some of their ppt to me. Haiz. Nevertheless, I spent the rest of the day berating myself. Haiz.

I've joined the drama club and there's an interview tomorrow for main comm position. I've decided to actively partcipate in a cca this year. I'm thinking of learning the violin from the school's string orchestra. The only problem is that it is being held on Saturdays. Oh well, I guess it requires a certain level of committment. I'm also thinking of joining film society. But my only problem is that I see no point staying back in school to watch movies. Haiz.

I'm taking 17AUs for this sem only. Nevertheless, it's gonna be a tough semester as I will be learning a new language, that is, Korean and I'm taking biz, which I'm not too enthusiastic about going for lectures on friday evenings. On top of the much harder chem courses. As usual, I'm procrastinating when it comes to revising my work. Haiz. But school's been fun lately apart from lab. Before today, I was actually looking forward for the singing lesson. I remembered how much I loved music lessons when I was in primary and secondary school. And of course band practice. And hence, me contemplating to take up the violin. I've come to reason with myself that taking up new things can be very hard and even discouraging sometimes, but once you get the hang of it, you'll come to love it. And as time goes by, you can look back and marvel over the wonderful decision of picking up a new skill (like what I did with the flute). I can just remember how I told myself that I had made a big mistake joining the band after the first lesson in sec 1. Hahaha.

Attending GV17 (the music course) feels like attending a band practice again. The same things were said like crescendo, controlling your air, sitting posture. Yeah, GV17 is a hell lot of fun coz the best part is that we get to watch you tube. However, it dawned onto me that the tutor and I have very different musical influences. I'm influenced by the American Idol sort of way, rearranging music so that it sounds original ( the stuff that Simon Cowell always say) but the class is more towards opera maybe? I'm not too sure myself. Maybe that's why I'm finding it hard to get a minus one of my song choice as I'm influenced by the AI style. Unfortunately, they dun have minus ones. Haiz. Maybe I shoud sing without the minus one, that is, acapella. But I'm not that confident as I don't have a flawless voice. Haiz.

I've been thinking of picking up another instrument lately. The VIOLIN. from the school of course. But it will be on SATURDAYS... Double sighs. Picking up an instrument (just like Korean language) is hard. Lots of time and struggle. Haiz. Just like how I'm struggling after 1 korean lesson.

8/8/08

On this very special day, I reluctantly dragged myself out of bed at 2pm to attend a 2hr lecture. Had originally planned not to go but I shall not go into the details...

On this very special day, I had dinner with Champion at the Quad. I tried the seafood claypot rice which I wanted to do long time ago but it was a disappointment. It was in soup form which was totally unexpected.

School has been okay thus far but I guess I'm still stuck in the holiday mood. I managed to get the singing module that I have coveted since last semester and to my horror, I found out that I have to perform a few weeks from now (which I shan't specify...) Hahaha... Just in case I embarass myself... I have a few song choices in mind but I dunno if it will suit me. But the good thing is, I can invite anyone, just anyone from anywhere (including family members) to sing with me for the test aka presentation. So who's willing to sig with me? Please let me know so that we can have some practice sessions. Hahahahaha......

I'm glad that I don't have school on Monday... Hahaha...

Had a great seafood dinner with chilli crabs last night. Didn't do much shopping this time as we didin't really have a lot of time to spare. During the trip, I thought of what I can do for the remaining week, now that I feel like I'm suffering from post ocbc symptoms...hahaha...

1) Pack my room
2) Watch K-dramas :)
3) Lie in bed the whole day
4) Read for the whole day
5) Swimming (It's time to lose weight!)
6) Badminton too...
7) Meet up with friends?

Something extraordinary happened last night (sunday night). My old neighbour (old meaning childhood/10+ years ago neighbour) who moved out decided to drop us a visit. It was quite last minute (20 minutes maybe), so with whatever time we had, my mum and I were scrambling to tidy up the house! Haha... It was quite funny la, coz we were so cartoonish... Hahaha... When I was really really young, I had this neighbour whom I was very very close to. She's the same age as me and we played together often. My brothers and I would go to their house and we will talk and play and do all the silly things together. I attended the same kindergarten (and nursery?) with her and you can almost say that we were as close as sisters. Haha...

However, my neighbours moved to the opposite end of Singapore before I turned 7. We visited them occasionally, but as we grew older, the visits decreased exponentially. Hahaha!!! So we lost contact (the girl and I) but sometimes, when I think of the past, I will think of them (her). Meeting again today, it was kinda awkward as I/we didn't know what to say to each other after almost 10 years of not communicating! But I'm glad I got her number now but still, how and where do I start?

Sometimes, I wish that I have this special ability to connect with others and understand them better...

Work's good last week and this will be my final week working! Yay! Hahaha... Most of my friends have left so I think I'll be quite lonely this week. Haha... But overall, it is a great working expreience (possibly the best), considering what I've gone through in the past.

Last Sunday, I met up with kh, zq and hj. We went to mindcafe and played a few games there. It was really fun to play the 'huat!' game; a morphosis of 'snap'. Of course, we played Jenga as well and I was quite a nervous wreck. Haha.. Had Billy Bombers for dinner thereafter. It was my first time there and I was quite impressed with the food and service. Went to Daiso after dinner which was located at ps. It's a cool shop with almost everything.

On Wednesday, met up with xian, val, carlene, eileen and diana to have a june/july birthday celebration for eileen, diana and carlene. It was also a great catch up session and I can say that I've not laughed that hard for many months. Hopefully we can meet up really really soon again. Hahaha..

I went with my father to pick my mum up from Changi airport T3. The place was huge but sadly, like what the papers described, deserted. Again, I like the whole experience of being at the airport. Really missed my mother over the last 4 days and I'm happy she's back (with the souvenirs of course)! Whee...

It's official! I am sick and tired of work. The mere thought of going back stresses me out. Haiz. For some reasons that I think I know why and yet I don't. Maybe it's because of what I had to do last week. Maybe it's because of more people leaving and that I can't stand the thought of being alone. Nothing motivates me back to work (except the money, of course). And the fear of doing very menial tasks. Aargh!!!!!

Hopefully this week will be a better week.

There's lots of things on my mind. How I wish I can juz worry less.. Hmmm...

Today was a fun day. Had a great time singing at ktv lounge at the recre club for 2 hours during lunch and... Champion outsang me! Hahaha... Some of the songs were 'yue liang dai biao wo de xin', 500 miles, dolly parton's songs, celine dion and so on.. not forgetting the chinese songs sang by the rest.

Went to downtown east last friday as it was ye chang's last day at work. I ate chicken rice from 'Mr chicken rice' founder of the famous chatterbox chicken rice but it wasn't that fantastic. Wanted to sing at K-Box but it was fully booked. Besides, the offer was over. We saw the indoor ferris wheel. It looked nice. So we ended up playing at the arcade and I wasted $1 for 4 individually wrapped mentos. Haha... We sat on the swings at the playground after that. It was quite nice and cool but if it wasn't for the chicken rice (I had cr for lunch and dinner), I wouldn't have felt like vomitting from the swinging. Haha... Then I pointed to a 'star' and asked champion if it was a star, but she said it was a satellite as stars won't be shining so brightly. It would be flickering... and we layghed at that... I wonder if it's true.

Happy Birthday Diana!!!!

Hello everybody, I'm back! Last week was a tough week for my family and relatives due to the passing of my uncle. I hope everything turns out well in the future...

I had a great time hanging out with Clara and Tabby... catching up and reminiscing the past, playing wii, this fashioning, slurpeeing, taking neoprints and eating at pizza hut...

I'm enjoying work till today all thanks to my great friends/colleagues whom I didn't know despite being in the same course. But sadly, for most of them, their last day was today. Haiz.. and I'll be alone with no one to sing to. I think I'll miss Sakura (Eng Hui) and Champion terribly. I will miss singing 500 miles to them, in the toilet, everywhere. Hopefully I will be busy tomorrow so that I won't be so bored. Haiz. Working and giving tuition is hard and tiring.

I started planning my timetable for next sem and I'm thinking of taking the singing course (the magic of a voice in the world of a singer), Korean language, a biz module(fundamentals of management) and an arts module (something related to crime and punishment) on top of my other 3 chem modules. 20 AUs in total.. But it looks like it's a lot and I'm not sure if I will be able to cope...especially Korean... learning a language needs lots of time and practice..

Went to ThaiExpress to eat last Saturday with my mother. I had that soft shell crab with glass noodles and my mum had tom yum soup with hor fun. They were fantastic and we signed up for membership. We did a bit of shopping and it was quite nice to be there.

I had a great father's day too... Ate at Swensens Tampines Mall for the first time in many many years with my family.

I finished watching my lovely samsoon and snow queen. Snow queen is surprisingly good! A very sad show but worth watching...

The past few days has been busy busy busy. Lots of stuff to do at work, here and there. Meanwhile, I'm still looking for a job in case this dosen't last. Had lunch with Marie today. What a great chicken rice lunch! Hahaha...

My feet is very very painful all thanks to my working shoes. Haiz. Why must we girls suffer like that?! Hope to catch up with my friends soon!

Results out today.... and.... I'm satisfied with them... Hmmph.

A quick update...

Went to jb last weekend and had a fantabulous dinner. Bought a new pair of shoes for work at a watch. Remeber the surveyor job? I quit it as I've found a job at ocbc. The people there are very very friendly and the office just rocks. Everything in the pantry is high tech and cool. The recreation room has billard tables, table tennis, darts and not forgetting wii!! Really cool. Very very good ambience. Even the toilets are classy too.. But I hope this job lasts, as it is really nice working there.

I finished watching my lovely samsoon , a very good show....

An eye opener...

I've got the surveyor job and I attended training today at tanjong pagar. The training is quite interesting and it's not as hard as I thought it would be. It is quite fun actually. I think this job can suit the busy bodies very well. Hahaha... I had dinner at Maxwell food centre with Zhi Qi and the food centre is awesome! There's a stall selling the famous curry puffs, bread, thai food, teochew porridge, mr bean and not forgetting chicken rice. It's like all the famous stalls converging and selling there and I was spoilt for choice! I had the urge to try many stuffs but sadly, 1 meal can be eaten for dinner only. Haha... Back to the training... they provided breakfast!!

Most importantly, there were many beautiful buildings, museums and shop-houses.

Hahahaha.... So val... do you still wanna join? It's quite fun..

This week has been a great week for me. Mainly because Man Utd won the Champions League against my former favourite club. Hahaha. David Cook won american idol. I kind of expected it, but I was hoping for Archuleta to win. But it wasn't a major heartbreak for me. Finished my part of the biz plan on Monday so I spent the rest of the week watching 'love story in harvard'. It is a very good show and the female lead is extremely pretty. A must watch! Other than that, I've been busy hunting for temp jobs, pestering my agents in the process.

This week- Entrepuneural week

This week is quite boring during the lectures. However, I managed to make some new friends and we have a great time during group work. One thing's certain- I don't think I have the interest of becoming an entrepuneur. Haha. Here are some of the highlights of the week.

Tuesday- I saw Christopher Lee at can B!!! We were ordering food from the same stall and sadly, I embarassed myself in front of him. Haha.. Wait a minute! I did not topple my fish soup over him because I was star struck. Hahaha.. I managed to talk to him though. A short conversation. He looked slimmer in real life and very stylish with the black sunglasses and huge tote bag. It was obvious he was shy and didn't want attention but the sunglasses did not help- it made him stand out from the crowd. So after deliberating and confirming with my friends whether he is the ming shun, I plucked up my courage to ask him if he was Christopher Lee. Coz I wasn't very sure at that time that it was him. (I realised that he must have felt sad then...). And he was like 'Yes', in a draggy, questioning manner. Then my next question was 'are you filming here at ntu?' and after a while I realised that it was quite a silly question. Haha.. My head was spinning with excitement then..

So after that, he sat with a bunch of crew plus dawn yeoh. She looked different too, more demure. At first I mistook her for Janette Aw. Hahaha...

This pretty much summarises this week. My last entrepuneural session is on friday, tomorrow. But there's still the business plan that my group has to complete after the whole thing.. Aargh... Haiz. Oh, and I had a scare this week because of my laptop. I think I've unknowingly been infected with a virus so if you receive any weird links via msn or anything from me, please do not open the link.

My body has been aching for the past 2 days, namely because of badminton. Eating great food, sleeping and reading are the simple pleasures that I've been indulging in for the past few days. It's sinful! Hahaha...

Things that I want...
1) iPod Touch. When I saw someone using it on the train, I was mesmerised. But to my horror, I found the cheapest was close to $500- way out of budget. Wait till iPhone comes... and maybe the price will drop...

2) I want to eat the glass noodles from Thai Express....

3) I want to have a bowl of SzeChuan hot and spicy soup (the quality kind)

4) I want to get a well paying temp job....

5) I want to go to Swensens at TM.

6) I want to slack all day and feel that it's alright to do so... HAHAHAHA...

7) I want to watch as many Korean dramas as possible if the internet allows me to.

Presentation is over! Hurray! I admit that I was rather nervous that day and my hands were shaking badly. Afterall, it has been 2 years ago since I did a presentation. I didn't do the 'everybody' thing this time though.. Hahaha... I fumbled a bit but everything was over within minutes... after countless days of practicing and rehearsals. But I have to admit the process of meeting up and discussing was really really fun. I had a great time with the group members and they are a funny bunch.

MATLAB is over ,like finally, and I managed to resist the urge of dumping the papers into the dustbin. Exams are in less than 2 weeks time and it seems like there's so much to do but so little time. We do not have a study break so I dunno if it going to be good or bad.

I would like to add something random... When I grow up and am financially stable, I would like to migrate to other countries maybe New Zealand or Switzerland because I scared of the rat race.. Haha... nonono... I should say that I was shocked and surprised of the number of assesment books and tuition that my tutee (pri 6 girl) has. I don't wish to put my child ( if I have one) through all this stress just to do well.. hahaha... and.. I was humbled by primary school science. Hahaha... There was this primary school science guide book that was talking about mitochondria in a cell and its function and I was surprised because I learnt it only last semester. To add on, there was heredity and potential energy and so on and so forth... I was stumped because I wasn't sure on how I should explain ti the kid. Hahaha.

Gogogogogogogo. manchester united!!! Hahahaha...

Highlight of the day- BHG Fashion Bazaar

There's this BHG fashion bazaar at the Nanyang audi, it started yesterday and is ending tomorrow. Went there to do some window shopping during the three hour break and it was quite interesting to see the range of fashion apparels and what knots. Went back empty handed though (although my friends did manage to buy some stuff..) and saw Eileen there too.. What a surprise! Time flies when we were shopping and we were almost half an hour late for biochem lecture. Hahaha. It was great to escape from the daily mundane routine of school life and the endless pile of work that is beckoning after I am done with this.

Communication presentation is next week and hope everything goes well (crosses fingers). Next week will be a mad mad mad mad mad mad busy crazy week.
Monday- 1 hour of tutorial
Tuesday- Presentation!!!!!
Wednesday- 2 mid-terms! Physics and 801!
Thursday- biochem mid term
Friday-112 midterm!
See what I mean? This weekend will be packed with studying (I hope) so that I won't collapse next week. Tata!!

OUT!

2008-03-21T11:07:00.000-07:00

Tuition was ok. Just that time flies past really fast. Unlike Eileen, my communication presentation is 2 weeks away which is also a terrible week. But right now, I'm enjoying the start of my 4 day holiday. I've decided not to take any special sems coz I know I won't be in the mood to study and furthermore I'll have my Entrepuneurship module to clear in the second week of May. Besides, I want to work!! Haha..

OUT!

2008-03-09T22:45:00.000-07:00

I've gotten a tuition job near my house! I'll be teaching a primary 6 student English, maths and science. But mainly english. It's a bit intimidating coz it's been so long since I touched primary school books. I've seen the P6 english assesment book and it's quite okay and fun to do.. Haha.. Those were the days when I had to write a compo out of a picture and doing reading comprehension. Hahaha.

I guess the extra money will be useful if I ever decide to go for an exchange program in 2 years time. Lately, I've been thinking about getting a more holistic education. Currently I do not really have a CCA so it's just studying. I know I'm shortchanging myself and this will come back to haunt me in the not too distant future when I eventually apply for a job. So I prolly should get myself one when the next sem starts. Prolly something that I like and have great passion in.

The S/U option is over and I've decided not to SU anything although I think that I'm insane. I'm prolly gonna regret this in a month's time or so but hopefully this is the right choice for me. But from now till then, I'm going to study real hard and try to get the best grades possible from myself (crosses fingers).

The weekend has been an upset of the titans. Chelsea lost to little Barnsley (liverpool lost previously too) and now they cannot defend their two titles that they won under jose mourhino formerly and liverpool is catching up for that the third spot in the premiership... Man Utd was knocked out by Reading in the FA Cup. Haiz.. no more treble to chase after...

Enough of this randomness...

I'm so happy that the week is over. Got over with the depressing maths test which I did not study much for and din't finish the paper. Grr... But I will have an important decision to make before Sunday night regarding S/U-ing certain modules. Should I or shouldn't I?

Meanwhile, on tuesday, I received 2 offers for tuition assignments on the same day but I turned both of them down for some reason.. The caller still said that it was my lucky day...

I've been watching this 9pm show on Channel 8 every weekday and it is super, disgustingly funny! It's a must watch cheap- skate show that will make you laugh your guts out! Hahahaha...

The Leap Year

I've figured that I should make this post on this special day that comes once in 4 years. Ha. Yesterday was fun. Met up for lunch with car,val,xian,eileen and diana at Thai Express. The food was really good. I loved the glass noodles and Carlene's chicken. It tasted a bit like the one I tried from Thailand. After lunch, Diana, Eileen and I ate donuts from donut factory coz the queue was very very short. Haha. Where did the queue go to?

As I had hours to spare before meeting Tabby, I went home to take a nap. When I woke up, I realised to my horror that it was almost 5.45pm when I was supposed to meet her 15 minutes earlier! I met her at LJS instead and apologised profusely. Haha. So we managed to get ourselves to nus law school which was at Bt Timah. By the time we reached the school it was already 7.30pm (when the concert was supposed to start). But we couldn't find our way around the school and nobody knew where the law auditorium was. We walked up and down before finding another 2 lost souls too. We managed to find the building after a while and we went in just before the first dance ended. Clara performed in the first dance but we managed to watched a bit of it only. But luckily she had other items as well too.

And... surprise surprise... during the intermission, I spotted Tay Ping Hui!!!! He was sitted 3 rows behind me! He looks much better in person real life than on Hwang Jin Lu. Ha. The dance production was very good, very well coordinated. When the concert ended, I was disturbing Tabby on how I should get a picture with him while cam whoring. As we were talking, he walked past us and he was like centimetres near us.

We hanged around outside the audi and waited for Clara to come out and the cam whoring continued.

Yesterday was a day that I met quite a number of ex-classmates (excluding my friends at Thai Express). First, while walking towards the mrt station, I saw Priscilla Phua. Then at LJS, I saw Valerie and Lynette (all from the same class in sec 4). At the concert, we saw Pris Lin and company.

It was indeed an eventful day.

Oh, and I spent almost the whole of today napping.

I have a bad cough.. and because of that, I've been having insomnia for the past two nights. Ha. But not as bad as Valerie's though (I think). Haha. If I were to be sick, I would prefer flu to cough because coughing keeps me awake at night. But I would rather not be sick...

Anyway, I been you tubing for the past two days. I didn't follow American Idol very closely for this season but there are a few outstanding ones that caught my eye. Let me share with you my all-week favourites...

Number 1 on the list is...
Josiah Leming- watch this and you'll agree with me.. Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68ayuane2AA&feature=related

Part 2:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4aILqjzKAU&feature=related

I decided to leave Part 3 out coz he was eliminated in the end which was frustrating.

Moving on...
Number 2 on my list is David Archuleta- he's 17 this year..
Part1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIixbF9jA5s

Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFtT-R1AHzA&feature=related

He's good looking.. But what won me over was this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFAAzxAlhHc&feature=related loved it!

This is so funny: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ghr6-kcB3Zs&feature=related

Besides those, I've started watching Autumn Tale. I've watched this show in sec 4 during Chinese lesson but the teacher didn't have the time to complete screening the show. It was produced in year 2000. It's a sad sad sad story and I think I almost used up a box of tissue(200 sheets by the way). Interested? Read the synopses. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autumn_Fairy_Tale I love Won Bin!!!! Haha.. I still do.. after 4 years.

BTW, I kinda expected Tottenham to win coz Chelsea isn't that good anymore (w/o jose). Besides, the club beat Arsenal (4-0) and drew with Manchester Utd (I think).

2008-02-17T17:06:00.000-08:00

CNY was fun. It was nice to catch up with my cousin, Marie, again after 2 years. We had steamboat on the 2nd day of CNY and it was great. Couldn't help eating and eating:) My family and relatives do not gamble on CNY though. We just eat, talk and watch tv. The third and fourth day was spent on studying hrm.

The week that followed after CNY was busy busy busy. Had assignments to rush for, had HRM to study... I was so tired that I nearly fell asleep wherever I went. haha. This week I'll have to study for 1 quiz and 2 tests despite feeling sick, plus hand in my resume assignment for this communication course that I'm taking. I hate biochem coz I have to memorise lots of mechanisms that I dun even understand and I'm think mastering communication is very troublesome for a pass/fail subject. Haiz. I hope that this week will be over in a blink of an eye and that the 1 week holidays will come sooner.

PS: I'm so happy that Man Utd trounced the gunners and that Chelsea won too.. Oops.

Juz came back from reunion dinner at grandma's house. Feeling super full and bloated now. I can't wait for tomorrow to come and the days after that! Ok, except until next week coz its the week of tests and submission of the troublesome communication assignment. Hahaha. I'm feeling very sleepy now but I still wanna count down to new year!

Happy Chinese New Year to all!

Feb is here and CNY is coming real soon. I've been busy cleaning my room for the past two weekends and the cluster of dust that accumulated in the hidden corners in my room for the past year are gone! Yay! Well, most of them are gone..

The internet's been going bonkers for the past week so here I am blogging in the school library during one of my 3 hour break. I have another 3 hour break later after tutorial.

Remember the free style combat mentioned in the previous post? I've decided not to continue with it anymore because of the cost and the time constraints. Found out that it costs $10 per session for 1 hour only and it's quite slack also. Although it was quite fun to run on the track in the night; really cooling and not as tiring as when I ran in the hot afternoon sun some 2 years ago. Ok, I feel like a quitter now. I feel compelled to quit Curl because I do not have as much passion now than before... Grrrr... CCAs are a put off now because they end very late at night. Boo.

1st Feb- My brother's birthday
2nd Feb- Han Ga In's birthday (muahahahaha)

BTW, Channel U is going to air My Girl soon. I watched it already and it is quite good. Though I like Delightful Girl Chun Hyang better. The leading guy in this new show is very very hot.

This week is a slack slack week. Today is the only day of the week that I need to go to school (unofficial though).

2008-01-24T22:38:00.000-08:00

This week has been busy busy busy. But luckily I still had the time to squeeze in lunch with my mom on Monday. Human Resource management is quite interesting. But the trade off is that I reach home nearly 10pm on tuesdays. I've also been busy trying to catch up with school work as the content is quite heavy now, difficulty level has gone up a notch. I guess all of you must have known by now that I went to Orchard with Eileen on Friday and Xianhui bailed on us. Hahahaha. It was fun and I had a great time disturbing Eileen.Hahaha..

I've signed up for a free trial on freestyle combat and self defence. Seeing how Eileen the reserved one can take up kickboxing, I've decided to go for the free trial and if it works out, I'll sign up for the package. Then maybe next time when we meet I can fight against 2 thai kickboxers and defend myself from Eileen's kickboxing. Muahahahaha!

PS: There's something wrong with flooble chatterbox. Please leave your comments right after this entry( as I suspect some of you will- hint hint- you-know-who-you-are) for the time being until I find some time to sought it out.

Yes, I've finally committed myself to HP805 Human Resource Management by buying the textbook and printing the notes. Grr. I hope I'll be able to cope with the extra module. I've unknowingly missed two 3hour lectures and I've got loads to catch up on. School's been better for me this week.

Catching up these few days was great. There's just so much that I want to write about but I can't do it here. Maybe I'll have another separate account in the future to express what's deep down.

2008-01-14T00:47:00.000-08:00

School just started and lectures were dreadful. Especially maths. I had to endure 2 hours w/o any break listening to some guy mumbling to himself. Okayy, I didn't listen at all for the whole 2 hours.. My mind was wondering off and having some crazy fantasies. School is borring boring boring.

Sat- We went to Leisure Park at Kallang to have our lunch at ThaiVillage. The food is above average, the service was extremely good. And after many years, we finally had chilli crab. But I still prefer the homemade ones long time ago.. Till this day, I can still remember how it tasted like in my mouth. We order sambal kangkong wherever we go. In Malaysia, SpringCourt(East Coast-a long time ago), at Bali Thai, at Golden Peony (to our disappointment-as they serve cantonese cuisine) and now at ThaiVillage.

I try so hard to like Korean food, but I fail miserably. While I like Thai food without psychoing myself to love it. Understand?

2007

has been a bittersweet year. The year started off bitterly, with me feeling miserable for almost the first half of the year. I desperately wanted the year to come to an end. It's a year which I experienced new highs and lows. It's a testing year. From finding my first job to making the switch to my second job; both were horrible in their own ways. My grandmother falling in April and undergoing two operations on her leg (she is recuperating well now), my grandfather also falling sometimes when he goes out. Starting school, adapting to new environment, new friendships forged. Finding out that my uncle had a tumour in his stomach (it was a great shock to my family), but thankfully, he's better now. There was this really huge quarrel between my parents to the extent that I was afraid that there could be no return. But it was because of this huge disagreement with each other that I found out more about my family and that we treasure each other even more now. It is by God's grace that everything worked out in the end and that I am surrounded by my family and friends. Not forgetting my younger brother being the top student in his school and the whole of Singapore for his 'N' levels which made my parents extremely proud and happy. And now.. I don't desperately want the year to come to an end as I want to savour every last moment of 2007.

Last monday: met up with Bernie to play badminton. I was thrashed badly. My reflexes were not as sharp as before and I lack stamina. This is the result for not exercising consistently throughout the year. As I didn't do any stretching before the game, I went home with bodyache.

Last wednesday: met up with xian,valr,carlene,diana and eileen for dinner at Vil'lage. It's almost the same as marche only the name is different. And for the second time, I ordered rosti only to regret it afterward. And I had nothing but potatoes for dinner! I bought rosti, potato wedges and whipped potatoes. I liked the whipped potatoes best.

For the rest of the days until now, I've been watching delightful girl choon-hyang(another korean drama). This is the only show that made me cry so much. I couldn't stop myself from crying and I probably wasted almost 1 box of Kleenex. (OK lah, the brand is not Kleenex, watsons rather). On top of that, my eyes were quite swollen due to the constant wiping of tears. It's a good show, there are some funny parts also.

and finally... CONGRATS to HADY MIRZA for winning the first ASIAN IDOL. I was pleasantly surprised and shocked as I didn't expect him to win(and so do many others..). Now, I'm really proud.

I shall mark this 200th post with some of my masterpieces (colouring done my me) when I was a tender age of 5. My aunty told me that she found these 2 art pieces while clearing her cupboard. At the first glance, I don't remember drawing and colouring both of them. I was overwhelmed and didn't believe that I drew them. How could I? When I cannot even reproduce these drawings again today.

Then my aunty and mother suggested that it was my maid who drew them and we coloured them. I said we because if you were to look carefully at the colouring of the horse, I probably did the horse's body only. There's a stark contrast. When it finally dawned onto me, I felt a little bit disappointed that I didn't draw them (hahaha!) I was really into colouring when I was young. I remember competing with my younger brother many times. One of the reasons I liked colouring was because my father used to give us small gifts once we completed colouring a picture.

After a while, (and also after receiving many gifts), it was fun to guess what kind of presents he would come up with. Anyway, it's nice to see that my kiddy drawings are kept and appreciated.

The thing about Korean dramas...

They are fantastic! I'm currently watching witch yoo hee (channel U 10pm) aka witch amusement. I finished watching everything online already! I love you hee's character. And of course, there are many beautiful parts of the whole show. Like how she finally realised that she loves him and so on... The songs have been playing in my head like all the time for the past few days. Han Ga In is my new fav.

Hello there! Exams are overrr! Yay. After 3 loong weeks of being stressed. What we did yesterday after the last paper.. Hmm. We went to China! Haha.. Kidding. We went to the Chinese Cultural Heritage Centre.. It's this very very Chinese building at ntu that's rather out of the place. There's a chinese library inside, offices, and a picture gallery inside depicting about Sun Yat-sen and about the Chinese revolution. It's like a museum! There was also a bit about Singapore and the peranakan culture among other things. I think we were the only ones there. It wasn't exactly deserted as there were offices inside but the building was very well maintained and preserved. You must be wondering why we decided to go to the centre all of the sudden right.. I feel that its quite cool to have a chinese cultural museum in school. It's a different feeling altogether to step inside and appreciate the architecture. It felt like China. Furthermore, outside the building there's this mini fountain and right opposite is the Yunnan Garden. It's a pity that I didn't take any pictures. But I'm glad we went in as we didn't dare to do so other times or we didn't have time.

After that, we went to Jurong point. It's my first time shopping at JP and the shopping mall is wonderful! Can be comparared to TM. (Is it a good thing or bad?) But of course it's way much bigger with swensens, subway, Andersen's, Crepe ice cream and of course, this fashion. Ha. The this fashion there is different from the one at Tampines. It's quite high class and even the design of the clothes are surprisingly good. Gone were the days where you find that if you excluded a certain part eg frills? or that extra something that they tend to have a knack of putting on, then it would be quite good. Even the material is better..

The 4 of us shared ljs and ice cream from crepes. It was a wonderful high tea. I'm so glad that I didn't rush home for the 5.30pm show.

Another 2 more weeks till the end of the exams. Grr.. Good luck to the nus peeps for their exams next week! It's been a lousy 2 days. Couldn't really study much for yesterday and today. It dosen't help when I'm frustrated also. I've just realised that whenever my parents go overseas, I feel lost at home. Haiz. But now they are back. Yay. Doing chemistry calculations sucks the brain juices of mine. it's not my favourite topic. Boo. Where did all the confidence go to? I need it back. FAST.

Taking a break from all the studying now, a long break actually :)) The exams start next week and there's this mad rush to study study study. Hopefully I won't go mad by then. Maths isn't like what it used to be anymore. It's not simple, easy and direct like before but instead I get bombarded and reminded of the definitions and blah blah. It has become too wordy for Maths and I'm starting to dislike it.. Grr.. But still... Haiz.

E-learning week is this week and that does not mean that I don't have to go to school. Haiz. There's still tutorials to go for and tests! AArgh. It's Arsenal vs Liverpool tonight. I think Arsenal can win if Liverpool lets their guard down or make mistakes on the pitch. It's a tight but a deciding match for the young gunners.

I've been watching Kyle XY for the past few sundays and it is so interesting! Perfect for a Sunday afternoon!
