Alright. It's been a really long time since i updated. I really am getting bored at this blogging thing. Maybe just once in awhile I'll blog when i feel like blogging. And any way I've been really busy meeting deadlines for assignments and stuff.

Just last Sunday I didn't sleep the whole night just to finish up the Textiles Fundamentals project. And the Sunday before that I stayed up all night to finish sewing my products for Lifestyle Sewing all throughout the night AND wrote a sewing journal. Rather noisily I must say, since my sewing machine is really old. I seriously almost had a breakdown while sewing man. It was very traumatising! Very irritating to sew something which doesn't turn out the way u want it to, u know??

And there are a few things I discovered while staying up late. Like, you still produce noctor nuggets (in Malay it's known as "tahi mata") even when your eyes are open. Hahahahaha. And coffee doesnt work for me, it makes me sleepy still.

The after effects of staying up late are lethal, I tell u! I mean, I fell asleep almost anywhere. Even when standing in the bus or MRT. Hahaha. I almost fell once after accidentally sleeping while standing near the exit of the bus door. Man..

Anyway, enough of late night stuff. Let's talk about......... Singapore Idol! Yes, Singapore Idol. I seriously think this season is a waste of time and money. Just look at the contestants man. Do i need to say anything more?! Only Mathilda, Hady n Jonathan deserve to be in man. The rest? Pure evil I tell ya, pure evil! Please, spare us all the ear-damaging! Killing me softly with their songs.. NOOOO... Seriously man, this is like Child Idol or Singapore Idiot instead of SG Idol man. I'm sorry if this post may be offending to some, but this is only what i think, and i bet lotsa others think so too. Hahahaha. For a REAL singing competition, people should watch Rockstar Supernova man!! Their singing and performance is seriously waaaaaaaaay better man. They have true talents, being able to sing well, have great stage presence and play the guitar or piano!! Maybe the Idol contestants should watch it and learn from that!Ok enough of the dissing, I'm just glad there's Rockstar Supernova that I can watch instead of SG Idol. Lol.

Alright then, I think I've said too much. I'm in sch now and my lecture's cancelled but my lessons start at 2pm. Arghh.. And I came early, thinking there was lecture, for nothing! That's the "joy" of staying far far away from school huh. Aite, bye for now...

2006-07-13T09:25:00.000+08:00

Ok, i know this is too late to say that France lost the World Cup cos all of u probably already know that by now. It was a really great game and although France put up a good fight, the Italians deserved to win. I knew that they were gonna win man, but I had hoped France could make it their 2nd World Cup win. But oh well.

And what's this big hu-ha about Zidane's headbutt? I mean come on, the media has been portraying Zidane as being stupid and crazy for doing that. Ok, well, maybe it was, but Zidane wouldn't headbutt a guy for nothing man. He's basically a reserved person who doesnt like to get in the limelight much. Lip-readers have read Materazzi's lips and concluded that he might have said some serious stuff to him. And if this was true, it should be taken in consideration Materazzi's involvement in causing the headbutt. No doubt if it were me who had to swallow cruel words I would have reacted too.

Headbutt aside, Zidane is a really great player who has accomplished his name worldwide and probably is the most famous Frenchman. His contributions to football and the French team shouldn't be chucked aside just because of a moment of headbutting madness. Zidane's good experiences ultimately weigh out the bad ones.

It is indeed sad to see Zidane end his career this way, not being able to lift the trophy, being red-carded and not even getting to collect the loser's medal. It is sad to see the world bid farewell to one of football's most celebrated player, the one who won FIFA World Player of the Year thrice, the one who helped France to their World Cup victory in 1998.

The only consolation Zidane gets is the Golden Ball award. But even this award is being reconsidered due to the headbutting incident and FIFA might take it back. I hope that doesn't happen. To me Zidane deserves a commendation for the games as France looked as though they were gonna get kicked out after the group stages, but Zidane's magic and France's other "ex-retirees" (Thuram, Makalele, Viera) helped pull them through. Zidane will still be an inspiration to football fans around the world now and in time to come. In my eyes, Zidane will always be the hero in golden boots no matter what they say.

Merci, Zinedine Zidane.

2006-07-07T11:02:00.000+08:00

In the midst of all the projects and assignments, I could still find time to make this amateur video that chronicles my China trip.. Enjoy!

This is the link to more pics, credits to my sister for arranging them in chronological order.

Oh and World Cup is coming to an end!! It's gonna be sad, a 4-yr long wait and it's all over. France vs Italy in the finals, and I'm rooting for the underdogs who didn't do well in the group round but better now, France! And it's sad that Zinedine Zidane is gonna retire after this World Cup, soccer is gonna lose one of the game's most valued players.

Aite then, till next time!

2006-06-20T23:22:00.000+08:00

Im back from my China trip! Man, it was a really fun and exciting experience and I don't mind going there again if given a chance. The trip was very enriching and eye-opening. Being exposed to many different cultures and all, it was kind of a culture shock for me. But all was in good spirits, I went through with the trip smoothly. Admittedly, it was very enjoyable and I'm rather disappointed that it has ended.

Alright, I'm off to bed. Too sleepy to continue. Lol.

2006-06-11T16:24:00.000+08:00

I'm off. Beijing, here I come! =)

2006-06-06T18:15:00.000+08:00

I went shopping tdy! Yay! It's not much, but a little retail therapy is good enough. Heh. Anyway it was fun and funny things happened today too...

Firstly I saw a Goggy lookalike at the counter where we were queing up to pay for my stuff. I pointed it out to Kamisah but she didn't agree that he looked liked Gogg. Then I said later we'll hafta pay at the Gogg lookalike's counter and true enough, we did, out of all the other counters!! It was so funny, and I was trying not to laugh when I looked at Gogg lookalike's face. LOL. And besides Gogg lookalike, there was another guy who looked kinda gay-ish. He placed my stuff in the shopping bags while Goog lookalike scanned the stuff. Then, after I paid, he said,"Ni keropok, ni kasut, seluar" while motioning two shopping bags. I was thinking, like duh, I know what I bought man. And, keropok sounds funny when referring to Ruffles potato chips. What more it's used in the same sentence as kasut n seluar. Wahhaa. And when Mek heard his low voice, she decided he wasn't gay although I still think so. Hahaha.

And then in the MRT, I sat opposite this Chinese guy, who was rather good looking, but looked like he came out of some old Bruce Lee Kung Fu movie or something. He was wearing a Chinese shirt, the ones Bruce Lee would wear in his Kung Fu movies and slippers that look like the ones you wear at home. A very interesting person. Funnily, he was reading an English book entitled "Civilisation and its ____". Forgot the last part, though. Hahah. Entertainment for me n Mek until he alighted.

I could go on and on about the funny things that happened, but i think it's too crappy for u guys to fathom so I shall spare u the details. Hahha. Man.

On another note, I am leaving for BEIJING this Monday in the wee hours of the morning! Yay Beijing! I'll also be going to Inner Mongolia, and staying in one of those nomadic tents called a Yurt. Hehe. Maybe if i can get access to the net at the hotel or something i might do a travel journal on this blog, ala 5 Takes. Hmm.. Good idea huh.. but i'll see..

Hmm, what am I doing blogging now when it's term tests week??! Tsk. Aite then, peace out! ;)

2006-05-31T22:55:00.000+08:00

Sometimes, certain events can set me re-thinking about my life and how much I am lacking in being a better person.

I take things for granted. Whether big or small, I take them for granted. I seldom think of how lucky I am to be in this family and to have the life I'm living in now. Sure, there are bad times when I feel that I don't wanna be in this family, but all those thoughts are in anger and looking back at it makes the idea sound totally ridiculous.

I think many of us also take for granted the disabled buskers that we see around the streets. Many of them play music, and not just any music, but quality music.

I see this blind man after school at Tampines almost everyday. He is usually alone, and sets up his equipment for his electric guitar at the pavement beside the traffic light. Everytime I pass by him, he would be strumming his guitar to many nice melodies. Most of the songs are oldies and he sings along to the songs as well. I am impressed by his determination in setting up his busking spot almost everyday and singing to the songs that he plays. As a matter of fact, I feel that he is more talented than those wannabe singers out there.

Today was a little different though. I saw a teenage guy sitting next to him while he strummed and sang. I didn't know who he was or what he was doing there, but it was the first time I saw him with the blind man. As usual I just passed by and looked as well as listen to the music. After spending some time at TM, I passed by them again and this time, the teenager was singing to the blind man's strumming! It was then that I realised their relationship, that they could be father and son. At that moment, I felt so touched that the son was busking together with his father, singing along to his strumming. I felt myself choking up. It was really inspiring, and my heart really goes out to them. Kamisah was walking with me too and we both felt the same way and were both choking up. It's little things like this when, you know, I feel like I have a long way to go in improving myself, making myself a better person. It really puts things in perspective that I should be more grateful and not make a fuss out of meagre things. Sigh..

Anyways, yesterday something really weird and really coincidental happened. Both tweeny and me had the same amount of money in our EZ link cards man! I realised it when I tapped my card aft she did. I thought the card reader didn't read my card cos Mek's card read $7.62, and after tapping my card it was also $7.62. But aft we alighted n tapped again, it was for sure that our values were the same! Tsk. You may think it's freaky, but we find it funny cos coincidental things like this has become a norm for us. Lol.

Aite, that's all for tdy. Term test next week!!!

2006-05-27T14:58:00.000+08:00

Oh Mek's Gogg!!! I just love this phone!! I'm gonna get it I'm gonna get it I'm gonna get it I'm gonna get it I'm gonna get it I'm gonna get it!!! Hahaha. Love the commercial too, good-looking people in there. heh. Chocolate... Yum... I think it's gonna be in S'pore soon.. or is it already? I dunno, all i know is im gonna get my hands on it ASAP!!!

2006-05-13T20:58:00.000+08:00

My internet connection was down, i think cos of the wireless router i bought some time back. n even now i still cant connect through wireless but im connecting directly from the modem. must be the router. dumb router.

Anyways, i've made a pact of not eating aft 6pm and so far yesterday had been ok. managed not to eat after 6pm. And by doing this together with exercise, i hope to lose the blardy weight that i've gained throughout the past year man! arghhh. I think i gained weight as soon as i entered poly. must have been all that choc eclairs i ate during breaks. arghhhh. why didn't i think of the consequences?? and all those loooong breaks made me occupy my time by eating and eating and eating. and also the Flavours foodcourt caused me to eat and eat and eat. ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!

And right now, right in front of me, my sis is eating and tempting me with fried chicken and fishballs. grrr. how irritating. but it's ok, i'm gonna keep my will to lose weight strong! oh man, the smell is killing me! it's tempting me! nooooooo! i shall push away all these temptations!! push and i'll be rewarded with what i want later!!

Ppl, wish me luck on losing weight cos it is NOT an easy task at all. hahaa.

alright, on a different note altogether, I suddenly feel abit of sadness. i dunno, i just cant put my finger on it. sighhh.. its a mixture of emotions like exasperation, frustration etc. arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....

alright then, ciao.

2006-05-01T20:17:00.000+08:00

Ok ok, #1 fan Kamisah. I shall update ok? Hehe.

So, a week of school has passed and coming into the 2nd week of school. And before all of us had the chance to transit from holiday life to school life, we've already been given assignments and projects to do man. Can't even get a chance to breathe huh.

And now i'm searching for some dumb articles on the dumb reasearch gateway, which is dumbly having a dumb error right now, so i can't do the dumb CSAS assignment which is to dumbly review and compile the articles, which is dumbly due this Friday, and i gotta dumbly do it now cos i won't have time the rest of the week.

Oh and I got my CDS, which is Understanding Culture. Hmm. Oh wells. And there's already an assignment given man.

And oh ya! BIGGEST JOKE OF THE YEAR: I am the assistant class chairman!!! Oh wow! I am sooooo excited! Yeah rite. I haven't held a class monitor or class chairman post (or an assistant for that matter) since i was primary 1, when my teacher wrote in my report book, "Salwa has performed her duties both as a group leader and a class monitor well. Keep it up!". HAH. That was in primary 1 and till now i havent assumed any sort of class positions. I even remember teasing my friend for being an Asst. Head Prefect in primary school and called him an ass. (Asst.=Ass. Get it? Haha.) Ok primary school joke. But oh well, we'll see what happens huh. But then Zila's the class chairman so i shouldn't be complaining. Hahahahha. And Nana volunteered to be the class treasurer simply because she loves the feeling of lotsa money in her hands. But of course she's trustworthy and won't misuse the funds. Right Nana? Hehehe.

Okay then. Gotta go off now. School starts at 12 noon tmr. I'm happy! Hehe. =D

2006-04-24T22:32:00.000+08:00

First day of school tdy.
It was "Fresh", as Mek put it.
Found out the sem's been extended from 16 weeks before to 18 weeks now. Darn.
Had design subjects the whole day.
Textiles Fundamentals and Sewing.
We held silk cocoons during textiles fundamentals. It made a sound when we shook it and we thought there were hardened silkworms inside. LOL.
Sewing was fun, but it took me awhile to get the hang of it. Once I did, well I got kinda hooked. Heh.
First day of school went pretty well for me.
Until...
I was walking near the wall and didn't notice a fire extinguisher box jutting out from the wall.
So,"Bang!" followed by "Ouch!" and followed by a low "Hahaha".
I turned around to see that the French lecturer Jerome Jacquet was laughing at me.
And he said with a French accent,"Haha. It's not funny but I had to laugh."
How embarassing.
But oh well, embarassment is my best friend afterall. And I'm used to being laughed at. How sad. Haha.
Oh and saw glue too. Gummy as usual. And thinner, whiter, taller. Mek felt intimidated. Lol.
School starts at 12 tmr, yay! And I better get an explanation tmr during APEL as to why I didnt get a CDS. So troublesome man. Hope the same thing that happened last sem doesn't happen again.
Oh well then. More updates to come soon!

p/s: You will always see people when u don't wanna see them and don't see them when u wanna see them.

2006-04-24T00:10:00.000+08:00

Melancholy

2006-04-23T19:48:00.000+08:00

Turned out that we CST students need not come to sch on that day. What a bummer! Not to mention a waste of transport fees and my time! U noe it costs 5+ freaking bucks to get from here to TP and back home?? And it was all due to some miscommunication. See? CST students are always being pushed around just because there're only a few students in this course. Poor us.

Anyway, it feels weird that school is starting tmr. I dunno why, but it just feels weird. Maybe cos I've been sitting at home for too long. But hmm. I dunno. I'm gonna be a Yr 2, a junior. Can't believe it man. It has been a yr? It doesn't seem so to me. Time sure flies fast even when you're not having fun.

School is starting... School is starting... Tomorrow! Arggh.

2006-04-17T21:39:00.000+08:00

School doesnt start till next week, but I have to attend a Problem Based Learning workshop at sch tmr! Arggghh. Basically its a workshop teaching us how to use our brains. I mean, what else is there about problem based learning besides using ur brain? Haha. Oh well. Gotta wake up n leave early tmr. N i gotta start getting used to the usual sch timing soon anyways. Sigh.

2006-04-15T16:11:00.000+08:00

Yes, according to MyHeritage, my face looks like these celebrities. It uses some face recognition software to match my photo with a celebrity. So, if any of u guys got alot of time to waste like i do, u should try it out! Actually it was alot of fun though. I had a good time laughing at the celebrities i was matched with, eg. Neil Armstrong, Stephen King, Steven Spielberg, Stephen Chow (wow same names), and some others. Oh and i had some Korean matches eg. Song Hye-kyo, Jang Nara, Bae Yong-jun. Now, that's funny cos i don't think i look like ANY of them. Haha.

So i uploaded a few of my different photos and 4 celebrities kept popping up as a match to those photos, meaning that i look like them the most. They are...

AYUMI HAMASAKI (Top row, 2nd from right)

ANNA LINDH (Top row, 1st from right)

JODIE FOSTER (3rd row, 2nd from left)

CHESTER BENNINGTON (3rd row, 1st from left)

Hahahahhaa... Well, what do u think? Do i look like any of them? LOL. Oh yeah, there was this picture i uploaded which was matched to all male celebrities only! No female matches at all. Shows how manly i look huh?! Wahaha...

Conclusion: I got Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, Caucasian and African-American facial features. LOL!!!

Anyway its raining heavily now with lightning and thunder.. It's so scary anticipating the loud thunder after there's lightning.. *shivers*

Alright then, u guys haf fun matching ur faces with celebs aight.. I'll be back blogging more often, i hope. Hehe.

2006-04-11T00:30:00.000+08:00

I did something good today - I cleaned my room!! Considering I've been slacking my butt off during the hols, this has been an achievement! Hahaha... Here are the before and after pics.

My table: before

My table: after

My floor: before

(Well actually this is during cleaning, u don't think i live with that much mess do u??)

My floor: after

Sparkling clean huh? Well maybe for some neat freaks it may not be up to ur standards but to me it is! Haha.

Ok on another note, I edited my blog! Yay, now it looks really nice. Hehe.

Hmm.. I should write abt how I've been spending my hols huh. Well I must say I accomplished alot this hols. I've learned to play some songs on my keyboard which had been collecting dust, I've gone on a shopping spree (man that was so fun), learned how to ice-skate for the first time(a painful experience), went bowling, played pool, and etcetera etcetera. Hehe.

Oh and I've watched some really nice Korean drama serials and movies (Yes, Korean no doubt) during the hols. Hehe. There are some really nice movies I've watched, like Innocent Steps and My Little Bride. Overall I think the Korean entertainment industry is pretty creative in coming up with movies/serials although most of the time there is the element of love in almost all the movies/serials. But oh well. Anyway watching movies and drama serials are a good way to pass time. Hehe.

Ok then. Its almost 1am and I gotta hit the pillows!! See ya when i see ya! =)

2006-03-04T22:21:00.000+08:00

Well, yesterday Kamisah and me had a really exciting day! Firstly we started off our day by goin to Bugis with the initial intention of shopping for clothes. In the end we didn't buy anything but instead ended up at Coffee Bean with me having White Chocolate Dream and Mek having Pure Chocolate. We also shared a mudpie, which was really delicious since we were really hungry. Haha.

After that we went straight to Far East Plaza to eat Japanase food at Ramen Ten! Yummy! It was really nice and a very filling meal. We ordered 2 bowls of ramen, a plate of california maki, and 8 other pieces of sushi. Yeah, i noe, whoa! Lol. We were both bloated after eating the ramen and we still had sushi to finish. Mek couldnt stuff in anymore food so she gave me the task of finishing up all the food. Haha. Oh yeah, Mek was sneezing non-stop when we were eating man. It was so bad and her eyes were all red and watery. Poor Kamisah. Haha. Maybe that was also part of the reason why she couldn't eat anymore.

Mek sneezing away and blowing her nose
I was so full.

And then she scared everyone off, especially those ppl who were giving out flyers. Usually she always gets the flyers while I don't, but this time they gave it to me. Lol. It was so funny man.

ARGHHHH!!!!! I saw Sadako!!! Hahaha....

We walked off our meal by walking to HMV after that. I bought some CDs I liked!! Mek too! And then we were both very happy though a teeny little bit guilty. Hehe.

Bought a Ned Kelly VCD. A really awesome movie abt a legendary Australian outlaw. Must-watch! And not forgetting the 2 hunks Orly and Health!
I bought Summer Scent OST!! Don't ask me why, I just fell in love with the songs from the drama. Hehe. Korean songs are nice! Yeah it took me like 2 yrs after watching the show to buy the OST. Lol

Suddenly we received a call from Nana saying Mek's darl Gogg was at Suntec!! So off we headed to Suntec, partly to hope to see Gogg and mostly to go to the World Cup Trophy Tour Exhibition!

So we waited in line for our turn to see the coveted trophy... There was a huge crowd, but not big enough to create a stampede though. Haha. We were given 3D glasses to watch the 3D film made by FIFA. It seemed like everything was flying towards me, and one time I jerked cos it was as if the soccer ball was coming straight at me. Lol. So then after that we were taken into the trophy room where we saw the World Cup Trophy in real life! Woohoo! And the organizers even took a polaroid photo of each of us with the trophy for us to keep. We weren't allowed to touch the trophy or even make hand gestures. I mean I understand the not touching part, but the hand gestures? Abit ridiculous la. There was this guy who put his arms in the air like in victory and suddenly the security people all got kanchiong and scolded him for doing that. Poor guy. He even forgot to take his polaroid pic aft that. Haha. But anyway it was so fun man. Imagine getting up close and personal with the most coveted trophy in the world.. Well, I did.

The piece of gold we were gonna look at up close...

France

JapanArgentinaSpain (I'm a big fan!)
They've got really gorgeous Adidas jerseys man! (And a hawt model to go with it. Lol)
Whoa, Mek looks just like her darling Gogg in those 3D glasses... Haha..

Me and my friend trophy!
We held up the trophy in our hands!! Muahahaha

And then we went to the Career Fair Exhibition to just look around (and get freebies according to Mek) even though we already have a career waiting for us in the future. Haha. And Mek was really funny... She really made use of getting freebies.. I was laughing at her actions, but Mek didn't find it funny. Haha. Sorry Mek.. I shall be good and not explain in detail what u did. Hehe. Oh and Mek saw her Timothy Nga there hosting something. I told her to go talk to him but she was shyyy.. Awwwww..... Hahahaha.

In the end we didn't get to see Mek's Gogg but we were happy. Haha. So after walking around Suntec abit more although our legs were sooo painful, we went straight home.

2006-02-27T14:34:00.000+08:00

And so... My life as a freshie is over! Woohoo! Man, I can't believe how fast time flies. This time last year I was waiting for my 'O' Level results and I think I was still working at that dumb factory. And now, I'm already entering Yr 2 of my poly life! Haha.

Oh exams were over last week and do not ask me how it was. Haha. Considering the fact that I did some last-minute mugging, I hope I did well enough to clear all the subjects.

Anyways I know I haven't been updating my blog in such a long time. It's just that 1) I really dunno what to blog about. 2) I've been pretty busy. 3) I seriously think you all who read my blog don't really care if I update or not. 4.) I am just plain lazy. Hahaha. Oh well.

Ok now I'm gonna update with some pictures that were taken over the semester... These were taken when we guys volunteered as bakers during the TP Open House which was sometime in January. Haha. We baked Apple Cinnamon Rolls! Yum yum!

Cool huh? The really huge mixer that our moms would love.

Adding in all the ingredients...

Mixing it all up...

And more mixing...

Letting the dough rest...

And rise... and kedebabom! Nah just kiddin. =P

And in the meantime smile for the camera!

After rolling out the dough, we spread over the yummy filling!

Oops we put too much...

Oooh.. Nice!

And the not-so-nice ends

I look evil.. *cackles*

Don't I just look HOTT in that hairnet?? Wahahahahha!!

Our product: before.

Our product: after. Yummy!!

Mmmm...

The ugly ones turned out nice anyway and they were for us to gobble down! Yum!!

And then a week before the exams, during study break, where we were supposed to study, Nana asked me n Mek to go look for her Adidas bag, which in the end, we didn't find at all. Man. Haha. Then we went to eat at Delifrance Bistro, which was really nice! And thankfully, there is a code for every item on the menu cos if there wasn't I would have had a hard time pronouncing the names in French!! Hahaha.

Happy faces before satisfying our grumbling stomach!

I had this! Looks delicious huh?

Mek had this. Doesn't look as delicious as mine huh? Haha.

Nah, but since we were all starving, our tastebuds turned a blind eye (or tastebud?) to whether or not it didn't taste nice. Cos it all tasted nice! Esp when we were hungry! Lol.

2006-01-31T15:08:00.000+08:00

Phew! Since it's a holiday, my sis decided to bring me n my younger brother to climb Bukit Timah Hill! She and her smart ideas. Haha. But oh well, guess it's a good form of exercise for me. And now my legs and my butt ache. So off we went, on my maiden trip to Bukit Timah Hill! Yup, my maiden trip in all the 17++ years that I have lived in Singapore. =p

I guess i kinda underestimated it cos although the hill is only 166m, I was pooped by the time we reached the summit. And we took the long, almost never-ending stairs that led to the summit. Haha. Man, never take those stairs on your maiden trip! They were so high up and not only that, each step was pretty high too! So I had to lift my legs up way higher than the normal steps. One at a time.. Slowly.. By 3/4 of the way my heart was beating like mad and I was breathing in short breaths already. And my face was already so pale. Man. Haha. Anyways, let's enjoy some pics of the nature that is at Bukit Timah.

Yay! I made it to the summit! Now let's go down...

Emergent Trees

Do you see the light?

Follow the right path...

2006-01-30T17:13:00.000+08:00

Oh well. It's Chinese New Year holidays but i got so much shit to finish up man. Stupid projects, stupid tutorials and stupid other stuff. Sigh. This semester is crazier then all the mental instituitions in the world combined. So many projects, so little time. And that's why my blog ain't updated as much as before. Actually there are a few stuff that I wanna blog about but just that it takes up time and well, I'm lazy. Lol.

So, I changed my blog template. Need a change once in awhile huh.. And yeah, I like it alot cos it's really nice. Heh.

Well, gotta go finish up stuff now... Sigh.

2006-01-17T22:10:00.000+08:00

Ok, wow. This is probably the longest I've gone AWOL. Well, I can't help it cos I barely have time to blog. Most of the time I'm lazy to blog ah. Haha. Hmm, actually I had something to blog about but the moment I came in here i forgot everything. Sigh. Doesn't that happen all the time? Haha.

Oh well, anyways.. One of my classmates, Zila just got married on Sunday! It's really great for her and wish her an everlasting marriage!

Ok what else is there to blog about...? Man, I really got nothing to write about. I'm bored. Ok I'm gone.

2005-12-24T10:22:00.000+08:00

The face says it all.

Alright. I never knew it could end up this way but it did. But well, some things are just meant to be like that. Or should I say some things are just not meant to be? Either way, I still lose and I'll just hafta move on with my life.

Anyways, I just finished my term tests yesterday! Wheeee...! But sadly the tests were pretty disappointing man. Esp Maths & Stats 2. I admit, I'm just not good at statistics! Saddistic statistics, i tell u. Sigh. As hard as I could ever try, statistics just doesn't want to be my ally. (Hey that rhymes! Haha.) I'm just not statistically-minded.

And my sis just came back for South Korea on Wednesday! Wow, she really had fun man. She went skiing and stuff, which I've always wanted to do!! I wanna go on a holiday! I need a holiday! School's squeezing out all the juice I have! Haha. Oh well, I guess I'll just hafta wait until I'm older and when I've saved enough money, then I can go on a world tour! Whoa, I sound like I'm such a famous singer who's gonna have a world tour concert. Hahahaha..

Well, the one week holidays next week won't seem like it is even a holiday. I just have so many things to do and complete. Projects, assignments, and other stuff to do during the week. Alot of them are due on the week after term break. It's really crazily hectic, i tell ya. I barely have time to breathe, and before I know it, it's gonna semestral exams soon and I would have completed my Year 1. Yes, I know, isn't it freaking fast??!! Sigh...

Ok then, that's all for an update. I guess I can't blog as much as I did before, but i'll try my best ok! Haha..

2005-11-21T08:47:00.000+08:00

What am I supposed to do huh? Talking is wrong, not talking is also wrong. Why am I always guilty? It's not fair, I ain't given credit. It's hard on me, if you only knew. All I can do is let out my emotions through this...

I'm left with wounds that won't heal

Burning till my skin peels

If you ever knew what I feel

About the hurt I wanna kill...

Tell me what I did wrong

Words did not pass my lips

But like a sad song

You made me weep

The hurt won't disappear

The pain won't subside

The anger will appear

The sadness I hide

With all my heart I cried

All alone I hide...

2005-11-19T15:08:00.000+08:00

Hey ppl! I know I haven't been updating in ages, but here I am again! Hehe. I'm not gonna blog much cos I have some photos which will do the talking for me. :p

Anyways, I've started sch about 2 weeks ago and I've been really tired man! I have 3 days that end at 7pm and two of those days i start at 8am. Whoa. I'm really getting used to reaching home at about 9.30pm and also waking up at 5.30am. Haha.

A Day In My Life.

Reach school, grab a quick bite. Look, its crust is burned on one side. Haha.

Get some stuff from my locker.

Snap some pics before lecture. =p

Attend a lecture.

It's break time! Off to the newly renovated, air-conditioned ITAS Flavours food court! Yum!

Have a bowl of yong tau foo. Mmmm...

Or just have some big sandwiches...

Adila & Jannah

Aisya's concentrating on her food... Hehe.

Oops, who finished all the food?

Dessert anyone? Ice kacang...

...or Cheng teng?

Eh? Everything's gone!

Look! Isn't that cool? Haha.

Chill at the "airy place" after eating...

...or take a nap. Hey, why are we smiling in our sleep? Hahahaha...

Project Runway wannabe? Hahaha...

Ooooh.. Zila looks intimidating.. Haha.

Walk through the hallway of tutorial rooms and lockers...

Sit on the floor and wait for tutorial to start...

Visit the foodcourt one more time... (Man i'm gaining weight!!!)

Goofy me. Hahaha...

Finally, school's over! At 7pm that is. And look, there's a nice full moon in the sky! Subhanallah...

Well, that's all... Actually the pictures are a collection of a few days of school. I'm just recreating a typical school day. That's why the clothes are different in different pics. Hehe.

2005-10-26T13:12:00.000+08:00

Okay okay... After a long time, i am finally updating my blog. The reason why i havent been updating is cos i figured ppl wouldnt wanna read abt the interesting monotonous things that happen in my life during the holidays. Heh.

Anyways, i started my day bad tdy cos my younger bro accidentally hit the bridge of my nose with his ridiculously bony knee! Man, it hurt so bad that my eyes immediately teared and i had a headache afterwards as an effect of the impact. I wouldnt wanna go break my nose after experiencing such bitter agony of only bruising my nose. I cant imagine how a broken nose would feel man. Afterwards i couldnt breathe well through one side of my nose, but luckily it became better a few hours later. Although the pain of the hard hit is still present when i press the sides of the bridge of my nose. OW. Sigh. Oh, and coincidentally it's his birthday tdy, so its sort of a "present" to me on his birthday. Yeah right.

And if u were wondering how my younger bro's knee could come all the way up to my nose, it was cos i was tickling him while he was lying down. So his legs, or rather his bony legs, were kicking around everywhere and thus the knee hit my nose. Ok, u could say it was kinda my fault for getting my nose hit cos i was the one who tickled him n started the leg-kicking which then led to the nose-hitting. Kinda retribution for disturbing someone weaker than me, i guess. But that's what older siblings do to their younger siblings! Disturb them! I can't help it, can i? Heh heh.

Hari Raya is coming in less than 2 weeks! I cant believe how fast time flies. I am looking forward to the big day! Yay! N i wish an advance Hari Raya Aidilfitri to all Muslims! Enjoy the rest of Ramadhan as well!

Well then, i guess that's all for an update. Hafta go straighten out my nose. Haha.

2005-10-09T08:18:00.000+08:00

Guess what? I watched Four Brothers again! This time with my sis and she was the one who paid for my ticket. Heh. Before that we went to Suntec City for The Body Shop Sale!!! Man everything was so cheap, considering it was Body Shop we are talking abt here. Anyways, my sis was the one who took advantage of the sale, not me cos there really wasn't anything of high importance for me to buy anyway. Haha.

So aft that we went to GV Marina to watch Four Brothers. And if u all don't already know, Four Brothers is NC-16 and i am 17 years old. Ok, why i am telling u this, ur gonna find out in the next paragraph...

My sis and i bought the tickets and we were the first ones in line to get into the cinema. And the usher was this middle-aged goody-two-shoes "I'm a good, loyal follow-the-rules" staff. So we gave the tix to her, and she asked for my IC since it was an NC-16 movie. She clearly saw my year of birth was 1988, and she said i wasn't allowed into the movie. I was thinking "What? Don't u know how to count?" I told her i just watched it and i was allowed into the movie, ok. She wasn't satisfied, so she went to ask someone, and even aft tt, she said i wasn't allowed cos i had to be born before 1989 for me to be able to enter. Man!!!! U can't believe how pissed i was! Eh, hello?? Im born in 1988 damnit!!! And its clearly before 1989 dumbass!

She finally let us in half-heartedly but after that she called after us and started arguing abt my age again. She was saying something lyk, "But 16 muz be born in 1989 what...". Grrrr... I was so freaking pissed i started counting for her using my fingers. "1988,1989,1990,....2005". How much does that equal to? 17!!! But i stopped counting halfway cos i felt that it was a waste of my breath so i told her, "Aiyah u go use calculator press 2005 minus 1988 equals how much ah!"

And u know wad? When she asked for my IC, my sis jokingly said, "I dun nid rite?" And den she seriously looked at her, checking if she was above 16. Man, it was obvious my sis wasn't a teenager and she still did that! Grrr... I can't believe it takes just one person like that to really piss me off so much man..

But my moods were lifted as soon as i watched Four Brothers and saw HOTT GARRETT HEDLUND! Hahaha... It's such a nice movie that i watched it twice, not just to see the hottie but for the movie too la. So, for me to watch a movie twice means that the movie must be a really good one. Haha.

I think Mark Wahlberg is a really talented actor. He's great at acting and really brings out the character that he's playing. Ok i think right now he's my fav actor. Hahaha. Hmm. I'm gonna try watching other movies that he's been in other than the ones i've already watched. And even in those movies i've seen him in, he does act really well. That's what's great abt him. Heh. =D

To Mek: I saw Garrett's cute butt twice!!! Muahaha... Lol! =P

2005-10-08T08:26:00.000+08:00

Watched Corpse Bride with Alice tdy. Yep, she's back in S'pore again. Heh. I gotta say it was a pretty nice movie. Very interesting and quite funny. Though i would rather the guy stick with the corpse than the woman. The corpse seemed lyk a nice person. Or rather, a nice dead person. Haha.

2005-10-05T13:57:00.000+08:00

Went to watch Four Brothers at Lido with Mimi. It's a really great movie which i recommend every one to watch. Hmm. How do i even begin to describe the movie? It's an emotional story about four adopted brothers who reunite to find their mother's killer. It has all the elements of comedy, violence, and emotion. A combination for a great movie!

And of course, not to forget our eye candy in the movie, Garrett Hedlund! Heheh. He plays the youngest brother among the four and being that, he is always being treated as a little bro, esp by Mark Wahlberg, the oldest among em brothers. Lyk one of the scenes where there was a car chase and 3 of the brothers were in the car, and Mark Wahlberg, who was driving, told Garrett to put on his seatbelt. Haha. It was funny yet cute to see the brothers treating each other in such a...brotherly way. Even though they are adopted. Oh, and Tyrese Gibson and Mark Wahlberg are so cool man. I juz lyk the way they carry themselves. Andre Benjamin is alright, though i prefer him in Outkast. Hehe. And i almost cried during one of the scenes man! That scene was juz so emotional... Probably the climax of emoness is in that scene. Heheh. Wanna noe wad im talkin abt? Then go catch the movie!

It was really worth my 7 bucks. This is one of the few movies that i can safely say is worth every single cent of my money.

Don't they look cool? Especially Mark and Tyrese. Garrett's looking hott! With double "t"s lyk his name. Haha.

2005-10-04T06:00:00.000+08:00

Ramadhan is coming in 2 days and i cant wait cos it means Aidilfitri is coming! Heheh.

Anyways today is just another boring Monday and i guess im gonna be doing he same thing i have done for the pass month of holidays. Wait, did i say month? Man! It has been almost a month of holidays and its gonna be over soon! Haha. Not that I'm complaining, but time does fly even when u aren't having fun. Haha.

2005-10-01T14:27:00.000+08:00

Got up early today cos i went to Sentosa wif Mimi n Zila! It was fun fun..!

We reached Palawan Beach at about 11 plus and walked along the stretch of beach to find a suitable spot. It seemed that all the sheltered spots and the tables and benches were taken up. So we sat on the sand in between a shelter and a table. What we didnt realise was that those were taken up by hordes of toddlers who were brought there by their teachers from their childcare centre! Man, it was lyk we were in the centre of chaos. Those kids didn't leave us alone and were happily shoving sand onto Mimi's bag. Haha. And Zila already had this look on her face which she managed to scare off the kids with. Haha.

Anyway, the kids left soon after and we took the shelter that they left empty. It was a rather hot day, and we didn't wanna get a tan, since we were already as tanned as we are. Heh. I went to have a dip in the water with Mimi while Zila "jaga-ed" our stuff. I don't know how to swim, but i do know how to float, sort of. Haha. So we were in the water for quite a long time, enjoying ourselves and me enjoying myself by scaring Mimi somehow. Haha. Then she decided to entertain herself by creating bubbles in water (guess how she did it). Haha.

When we finally got out of the water, we ate and ate so much since we had lotsa food and drinks which were supposed to feed 6 ppl but only 3 came in the end. Haha. So imagine what a lazy day it was, gorging and lazing around, lying on the ground. Heh.

After that the 3 of us played some frisbee while taking turns to keep an eye on our belongings. It was funny, cos every person who walked by our spot was a potential criminal and we would see if the person would stop at our spot and do sumthing. Haha.

We decided to pack up after that and showered at the toilet. Luckily it wasn't as dirty as i thought it would turn out to be. Unfortunately for me, i wasn't spared the agony of finding someone's used nipple patches inside the shower cubicle. Man. Haha.

It rained when i finished showering so we were stranded in the toilet for a while. We waited for the rain to stop and then we took the bus back to the visitor departure to take the shuttle bus back to Harbour Front MRT. And then something funny happened. Someone at the back of the bus shouted, "Stop the bus! Stop the bus!". They were Indonesian tourists who had taken the wrong bus, and unfortunately for them, it had to be the bus going OUT of Sentosa. Haha. A man sitting in front of Zila suddenly became worked up when the driver didn't respond to his commands of stopping the bus, in his bid to help the Indonesian tourists. He was saying some stuff and he sounded angry. Another man who was sitting in front of me then calmed one of the tourists down and told her what to do. It was a funny incident, though i understand the plight of those tourists who didn't know their way around. Haha.

Anyways after that we went home and i brought aching shoulders home with me. Haha. A quick massage from my mom relieved it alot. Thanks mom! And then i went off to Neverland. Hehehe.

2005-09-28T13:25:00.000+08:00

Had lunch at Pizza Hut with Jaya tdy..! Mmm.. Yum yum! Haha.. We chatted alot, since we haven't hung out in a pretty long time.. Hehe.. Catching up wif frens over 2 days? It couldn't get any better.. =D

Anyways, wanna wish u good luck for ur promos Jaya! Hope u, me n Sru will meet up soon aft u guys finish ur promos..

2005-09-27T14:00:00.000+08:00

Spent my day tdy doin nothing until i received an sms from...Alice?? I was surprised cos she is in Singapore! Met up wif her at Far East and i realised i haven't seen her in almost a year...! Missed u babe! We walked arnd and talked cos there were just too many things to catch up on. Hehe. Den a few minutes aft tt, Yawen joined us! And i havent seen her in a long time either, besides during Teachers' Day. Wow, it was a great day cos i met up with 2 ppl whom i havent seen in such a long time. When Yawen joined us, there was even more talking between all of us; there was just too much to talk abt. And Liz has a really cool New Zealand accent now, really authentic. Hehe.

Anyways, we sat at Starbucks but didn't buy anything cos we were too busy chatting. Haha. It was a hot day initially, but it suddenly rained rather heavily. Phew, it was a relief, but we could still feel the heat from the aftnoon though. Poor Liz couldn't stand the heat cos it had been snowing in NZ. Oh ya, she also said she still wants to take over the world. Haha.. Yeah Liz, only i can understand ur desire to take over the world. Heh. Anyways, although we didn't spend much time just now, im glad cos at last i could finally meet Liz n Yawen. Oh ya, Yawen, if ur reading this, I'll visit u sumtime at ur workplace huh...? And see u wearing the cap which comes wif ur uniform.. Heheh..

Den we took a taxi home. We were alighting at different stops but the taxi driver didn't noe so he reset the taxi meter when Yawen alighted first. Haha. Cos of that, we didn't haf to pay the $1 peak hour surchage. Haha.

Btw, I cant wait for Sentosa, DiWaNaMiSyaLa! Heh. I juz hope i will be able to go into the sea. I wanna berendam! Hahaha. Bring the essentials, ppl! =D

2005-09-23T11:33:00.000+08:00

I AM SO BORED. Yes i am really damn bored at home. I don't have many things planned for this hols. Maybe the occasional outing, but other than that, i spend most of my time at home. My boredom has resulted in me buying a $54 The Sims 2 PC game. Very expensive, considering i was kinda in a tight budget when i bought it. I didn't know what came over me. I just told myself, "I need to buy it!!". Guess i needed some form of entertainment when i decided to buy it. Haha.

Anyways, it's quite a fun game and im addicted to it. Hehe. I guess rearranging someone else's life instead of ur own for a change makes the game interesting and fun. Well, at least playing it has helped me pass some time and boredom away. Heh.

Ok den. Since i am really bored and i have nothing to blog about besides being bored, i shall stop making u guys bored with my boring stories.

2005-09-14T02:41:00.000+08:00

The Longest Yard. A really great movie filled with comedy and tells abt respect, friendship, teamwork and morals. It's a real must-watch for everyone.

Watched it with Mimi yesterday and we were laughing our hearts out i tell ya. It was such a hilarious movie! Even the little things can make u laugh lyk mad. I think the both of us were making the most noise in the cinema. Haha. I loved all the characters in the movie cos they all have a different funny thing abt them. And Nelly looks really cool in the movie, what with his quick football moves and his gold teeth! Hahaha.. Oh, and that headbanging guy, he's so freaking big! Haha.. Did sum research and found out he's a body builder from India.. I was surprised that he was from India, cos he looked more lyk a South American than an Indian. The body builder part, I'm not surprised. Haha. At the end of the movie when we got up, we saw that we had left behind a huge mess of popcorn on our seats! Guess we were laughing and vibrating so much that the popcorn were sent flying. Hahahaha... It was a really great movie man.

Aft that we went to HMV to look at CDs. I bought Foo Fighters' In Your Honor! Yay! Now I'm listening to it.. Really nice..! There're 2 CDs in it. The first one is more upbeat, with more screaming and more drums. The 2nd disc has a much slower beat, more soothing and relaxing. It even features Norah Jones on one track, Virginia Moon, so how do u think it would sound huh. Really nice! Haha.

Then we ate at Cineleisure's BK. We were eating and recounting the movie so we kept laughing and i guess that caused lotsa air in Mimi's stomach. So she kept burping and it was loud..! Haha.. We decided to head home aft tt, but it rained really heavily and we didn't haf an umbrella with us so we were juz standing and worrying. Then MCR's Helena music video came on and suddenly Mimi wasn't worried anymore cos she kept gushing "Oooh! So handsome!" at the sight of MCR's lead singer. Haha. I snapped her back to reality by saying "Ur mom's gonna scold u for going home late." Haha.

The rain didn't stop so we decided to make a dash for the nearest shelter. Although the nearest MRT station was Somerset, there weren't any shelters that could bring us there without getting us drenched. So we walked past Meritus Mandarin and crossed the road (and the rain) to Takashimaya so that we could take the underpass to Orchard MRT station. Phew! Glad we made it without getting drenched. Hahaha...

Anyway, i hope i haf exciting things to do during my 2 mnths holidays cos i DO NOT wanna relive the rotting days during the start of this yr. Hmm. Actually, thinking back, I've had 6 mths of hols this yr..! So technically I'm only active for half a yr. Haha. =p

2005-09-11T03:33:00.000+08:00

It's over! It's finally over! 3 mths of school and now it's 2 mths of holidays! But then, i guess i'm gonna rot at home unless i go out. Heh. Well, i hope i did good enough for my main exams to at least pass and not take the supp pprs or even retake the subject.

Anyways, i got actually had something to blog abt but i forgot what it is once i came here. Haha. So nvm ah. Next time. =p

2005-09-02T10:43:00.000+08:00

A sign of purity but a carrier of shame.
What a shock.
Shameless.

Anyway...
Cool, lazy day.
An environmentally friendly bus.
Propped up on the seat, dangling my short legs.
Felt like a kid all over again.

"Can't tell if this is true or dream.
Deep down inside I feel to scream.
...I'm just ONE."

Exactly how i feel.

No I don't want to.
No more.
Don't wanna get caught up and entangled in this confusion.
Stop.

Exams.
Breakouts.
Stress = weight gain = more stress.
Many more topics to go.
Jeep man!

Home.
Where I find solitude.
Peace.

One more thing.
Kir-kk...! Hammett! Hammett! Haha.

2005-08-26T15:15:00.000+08:00

A week has passed since i last blogged. And a hell of a day i had tdy man! It all started with my SFP practical exam at 10am.

For the prac exam, we were supposed to be given a food ingredient n decide for ourselves what method of cooking would be useful for what is asked in the question. I got a cabbage as an ingredient, and the question was "Describe one cooking method where heat is transferred through friction of water molecules and one cooking method where heat is transferred through convection currents." I was lyk "Whaaat?" when i saw tt question man! So i decided to use boiling for the friction one and steaming for the convection currents one. After i did everything, each of us was interviewed on what we did, our cooking methods, techniques etc.. And she was telling me i wouldn't get any marks for technique cos i didn't cut the cabbage into smaller pieces. And she was so happily holding that small chunk of cabbage while talking abt why i should cut the cabbage into smaller pices. Lyk what? Haha. N she also said it was bad tt i didn't label, although we weren't even provided with labels! Man! So crap. Den she asked me some other questions, which i just spat out anything i knew of the answers. Haha.

Den aft tt Lala, Mimi, Syasya, Didi and me went jogging at Bedok Reservoir again. I think it was abt 3km too, or even more. Cos we ran for abt 25 mins i think.. Phew! I could really feel myself sweating it out man, n furthermore it was at the 12 o'clock hour. Haha. We bathed aft dat and then went for our lectures.

I went to Marrybrown with Nana, Mimi n Lala aft sch. Yum yum. Ate the chicken, fries n ice cream while sitting at the swing in the restaurant...! So fun.. Hehe. Was really full aft dat n so we dragged ourselves to the bus stop to go home.

During our trip back home, Mimi n me were being our usual crappy selves n laughing abt something when suddenly, at Bugis, 3 Malay guys wearing beanies (is tt what u call those?) boarded the MRT. At first i tot they were juz some typical mats. But then they came to the center of the carriage where i was sitting n i realised tt one of the guys was Baihakki Khaizan! Haha. I think he saw me looking at him n so he looked back, giving me a look lyk as if he was unhaapy with me.. Haha. He alighted shortly aft dat, at City Hall, and Mimi n me were disappointed.. Hahaha...

Now im feeling really pooped--the effect of the jog. Heheh. I still hafta study for HAP n PIPC test tmr..! Man. So stressful. Next week is already the study week, n the week aft are my sem exams!!! Argh!! I will do this!!

Well anyway, i think i gotta go hit the sack now cos my eyelids are feeling lyk 50kg weights. Although i HAVE NOT studied AT ALL. Heh.

2005-08-20T11:32:00.000+08:00

Tdy had HAP practical at the sports complex cos our prac had something to do with the respiratory system and circulatory system. It was fun, using the digital blood pressure thing. Haha. We measured our blood pressure n breath rate while doing different activities. One of them was laughing, n all of us immediately appointed Mimi for the job. Hahaha. N she was laughing madly cos i told her sum really funny jokes n crap which made her laugh for like abt more than 3 mins! Hahaha.

Den aft that I went to TM to watch The Maid with half of AC11.. Fun fun! Haha. The Maid, i muz say, is pretty scary, except tt some of the people in the cinema were so damn irritating i really couldnt stand them! They were shouting n screaming -no, i mean shrieking- lyk hell!!! I juz felt lyk getting up my seat n strangling those KIDS. Muahaha.

Anyways when we were going home on the MRT tdy, i saw this guy carrying this bag which said "I <3 Roxy girls". And coincidentally, i was wearing a Roxy Tshirt at that time! Man, How embarassing is that..? Haha. So i tried to cover the Roxy on my Tshirt my folding my arms. But then i think he saw cos he turned arnd and looked at me. Man! So ugh. Haha. Luckily he alighted soon aft tt.

I'm having mixed emotions rite now.. Dunno why. Juz haf tooo many things on my mind i guess. Im gonna haf a long weekend cos i lessons on Monday are cancelled. So long a weekend.

2005-08-19T11:57:00.000+08:00

It seems as though a long time has passed but fact is, only a week has passed. It has been a really hectic week, what with so many tests in a row. Tuesday had PIPC quiz and Lab test, Wednesday was SFP and OBC, and finished MST tdy. N guess wad? it's only abt 2 weeks b4 the semestral exams! Time really flies too fast for me to catch up. But anyway, im glad the tests are over, so tt now i can focus on studyin for the exams. Nxt week, i'll be havin my SFP practical exam! I hope i dun screw up lyk what has always happened in the SFP practicals so far. Man. Haha.

Anyways, tdy is the first time (i think) that i ran 3km without stopping! Haha. It's such an achievement for me cos 3km sounds alot to me! Lol. Ran at Bedok Reservoir with Lala, Mimi n Didi during our 5 hr break. We decided not to run with the leisure running team. Hehe. Of course we didnt run for the whole 5 hrs la. Crazy isit. We took about an hour and a half for our exercises aft which we went to study. Nana was wif us, but she was the "jaga" for our valuables. Lol. So far, i dun feel any side effects of tdy's running session. But we'll see tmr huh. Heh.

2005-08-13T13:21:00.000+08:00

I am happy to say that formal presentation is over! Haha. Ok, i was nervous cos i didn't really practise my speech much. And i have a big problem with public speaking. But when my group and me arrived at LT 14, i was kinda relieved cos the only ppl present were my own class n 2 oth ppl plus our lecturer. N even then, the 2 ppl left aft we presented so it was as if we were presenting to our own class. Haha. Some formal presentation. Lol.

Our group was the first to go cos we didn't want anymore ppl coming if we were to present late. Haha. Well, my group did pretty well, a combined effort from all of us. Hope we get good marks. Phew! That's another burden off my shoulders!

I'm feeling really frustrated now. It's not tt i dun wanna help, but it's juz really hard for me when the person who needs my help doesn't help himself! I feel so wasted, useless, angry n frustrated at the same time, it made me cry. And i'm always misunderstood. That's the worst part. I really hate feeling this way, knowing that someone close to you shuns u for not helping out. But how can i? I've tried my best, but it's just sooo hard to make the one who needs my help to understand what i've been telling him to. One thing goes into his right ear n out his left ear. Yes, it gets kinda irritating, n being the hot-headed person tt i am, i would get so worked up n raise my voice. And then he would give that irritating irritated look and juz say tt he understands, when in fact, i know he doesn't! It's so phreaking frustrating no one would understand it. And it's lyk such a big thing that this happens. She would then start talking abt getting outside help and tt it's no use to haf family who doesn't wanna help. All i can do to drown out all the things tt i don't wanna hear is to blast out all my favourite Foo Fighters song into my ear. N now she's complaining i'm trying to make myself deaf by doing so. Anything la. I know tt for as long as i live things lyk this will always be unavoidable n there is nothing i can do to stop it. Siggggggghhhhhhhhh.

2005-08-12T15:17:00.000+08:00

Phew! Reached home at 9.30 pm tdy. Why? Cos i went for Run Temasek. Haha. Now i can really feel the effects of not running for a really long time. Lol. Felt nervous before running like i always am everytime there's an expectation. But i got through it. Next week we're gonna run our "usual" 3km at Bedok Reservoir. Haha. I only started tdy n didn't know there was a "usual". Lol.

Anyways, tmr is my formal presentation! I'm so nervous cos i ain't tt good at public speaking. Hope i can get through it. And my group's the first to present! Man. But nvm, i can go through this InshaAllah. Hehe.

Well, gotta go now cos hafta get ready for tmr. And my eyelids are sooo heavy. *yawn*

2005-08-10T09:18:00.000+08:00

Happy National Day everyone! Hehe. Yep, its National Day. I woke up this morning to some sounds behind my block.. It was my RC celebrating National Day i guess. Haha. Anyway its such a hot day tdy and it can really make me melt. Haha.

Well, im gonna go watch the NDP show on tv now. Catch up later yeah! Maybe gonna see fireworks at Jurong East later..? Hehehe.

2005-08-09T14:05:00.000+08:00

Tdy was a great day. We started on our formal presentation project, went only for an hour of tutorial and finished sch at 2pm. Aft that, Lala, Didi, Mimi & me went to Singapore Expo to search for Mimi's blazer cos there was a John Little sale. At the same time, there was this Sportslink sale too, and shoes were going at almost 80% off! Man, i couldn't let the opportunity go to waste, so i bought a pair of Adidas running shoes. Hehe. N aft tt, i had the semangat to join TP's Run Temasek leisure running team. Lol. The shoes were discounted from $140 to $59.90! I am so glad i got them. But seriously, i'm thinkin of joining the leisure running team cos i really wanna lose weight.

Den we went to the John Little sale and Mimi finally found her blazer! Phew! See Mimi, i told ya ur blazer could be found... Hehe. There were so many things there tt really tempted me to buy. I couldn't la, cos if i did i would be sooooooo overbudget! Sigh.. It's ok, sum oth time maybe...

2005-08-08T11:42:00.000+08:00

Finally had the energy to update tdy. Hehe. Anyway, as i said, i had CCN day on Friday and our class sold potato balls n agar-agar drinks. And what a sell-out it was! I didn't expect our potato balls which comes in 3 flavours-cheese, cheese & sausage, n chocolate-to sell lyk hot cakes! N the agar-agar drinks were sold out by 3pm. Our potato balls lasted till the end of the CCN day at 5pm.

Throughout the time we were selling from 12-5pm, me and Mimi was in charge of the sales record n cashiering. We were selling em at 3 for $2. It was fun, and there were even regular customers comin to our stall! It was really funny man, i tell ya, seeing the same ppl coming back to our stall to buy our potato balls. Even the people manning the booth beside us bought our products. N 2 of them kept comin back.. haha. I guess it's cos they really are yummy! Yep, i bought some for myself too. Haha.. Imagine, the cashier paying money to herself.. Lol. Each of the flavours tasted really nice, but the chocolate one really stood out. It has this really funky taste, but at the same time made me want more. It was all sweet, salty, creamy n some other textures i can't describe all rolled into a ball.

The potato balls were fried on the spot using an electrical wok. Den there was this guy who came and bent down to see where the fire source of the wok was.. Man it was so classic n funny! The look on his face was one of confusion and surprise, and it was really funny. He did bought the potato balls though. Haha. The potato balls were so popular that even when we were packing up, someone still wanted to buy. By then it was selling at 6 for $2 . The agar-agar drinks tasted great too, esp with sprite and lemonade. Yum yum.

When it was all over, we were glad that we could finally go home and we could see each and every one of us was very tired. In total, we earned $254 for the sale of the potato balls. I'm not sure abt the agar-agar drinks though. Anyways, glad that my class did our part to help raise funds for the needy in TP.

Tdy is such a hot day man! I am practically sweating this afternoon. It was sweltering!!! N i think the weather made me feel abit nauseous. And also my unhealthy breakfast of fries this morning. Haha. Man i really gotta lose weight! It's sooo frustrating when although i try so hard to exercise and lose weight i don't end up losing weight at all. Instead i keep gaining. And the prob also lies at home, when my mom cooks and i don't eat. When i don't eat, she will complain tt it's a waste of time, food and money when she cooks and nobody eats. So, to please her and out of pity, i eat what she cooks la. I eat out of pity and to please. Man, how sad is that? This goes on and so does my weight gain. Sighhhh..

Anyway, tmr i don't haf school until 1pm.. Haha. But then i hafta come at 9am to do my grp's formal presentation project. I hope we can finish asap cos our presentation is juz this Friday! Man time flies so fast! I juz hope i can do well and don't screw up or anything.

Gotta go now.. Cya!

2005-08-03T14:05:00.000+08:00

Did my demo skills test yesterday. I dunno how i did, but i think im neither here nor there. Man, i could feel myself trembling during the demonstration. Haha. N i stumbled on a few words, which always happens n which i really hate when it happens. Grrr. N Mrs Sumathi kept coming to me n looking at the stuff tt i brought close-up. She was looking at the 4 diff "herbs" i brought. It was supposed to be rosemary, sage, nettles n lavender, but we were allowed to take oth stuff n pretend it to be those herbs. So i brought curry leaves n daun sop. Haha. But since it was only 2 types of "herbs" i tore up sum curry leaves n made tt a diff "herb". So from 2, it became 4 diff types of "herbs". Haha. N she asked me so many questions, unlike only 1 question tt she asked others. Tt's why i'm sceptical abt my result.

Anyway, went to Metro aft school to look for a formal jacket at a reasonable price. Past few attempts during the weekends to look for reasonably-priced, nice and suitable jackets for formal presentation were futile. Man, it's such a freakin feat juz to look for formal wear. I realise that society stereotypes women/girls as being unbelievably thin n slim. Even when the size is written as XL, it's still rather small. Luckily tdy i found one which was reasonably-priced, good-fitting n suitable. So i had to take the chance n bought it. Unfortunately, Mimi didn't find one suitable enough, so she's kinda frustrated. Mi, dun worry ok?? I'll help u find aite.. I'm sure there's gonna be a perfect jacket for u la..

Was kinda pissed off at sch tdy, during the 12-3pm time. My AC11 classmates shld noe abt this. Haha. But what can we do? I oso dunno. Hehe. It's ok la, our firz semester gonna end anyway. Lol.

This week n nxt week gonna be real stressful man! Cos this Fri our class gonna be setting up a booth selling potato balls n agar-agar drinks for CCN Day. Everything has to run smoothly, things happen simultaneously on tt same day. N we haf a make-up OBC lecture at 8-9am, n CCN Day starts at 12pm. Nvm, i noe we can make it..! Heheheh.

Next week hafta hand in Lab Report n it's Formal Presentation week!!! Darn. Haven't practised, haven't even finished (or even started!) doing our topic! Hahahaha. But i noe me n my grp gonna do it! Heh. I'm nervous, i'm nervous! *Bites nails*

Okay den, gonna end here tdy. Hope i'll breeze thru all my upcoming tasks...

2005-07-28T13:28:00.000+08:00

In abt less than 2 hrs from now, i'm gonna be $800 richer! Haha. I'm gonna get my money, i'm gonna get my money! Lol.

Anyways, i'm glad it's mid-week, but this also means that i'm getting closer to my CSAS formal presentation! Argh! Imagine me wearing formal clothes such as a blouse, jacket, pants n high heels. Unimaginable. Hahahaha. But i'm gonna be a teacher anyway so i gotta dress smart n formal everyday. Heh. It's gonna be sooo nerve-wrecking cos I'm gonna be presenting in a group, individually, in front of the whole Lecture Theatre! Ahhh!! Nevertheless, I'm gonna pluck up courage to do so, cos how else am i gonna pass if I don't present properly, right? Heh. Our group is gonna be presenting on the topic of the Atkin's Diet.

And this Monday is the Demonstration Skills test man. I hafta stand in the classroom, one on one with the tester, and demonstrate my demonstration skills. Haha. Hafta demo abt how to make some sorta shampoo thing. I hope i don't screw up cos I get nervous easily when i speak. Dang.

I can't believe it's abt more than 2 months that i've been in TP. Everything just feels so rushed since i started school. N i think its gonna be abt less than 5 weeks before my final semestral exams...! Stress stress stress! But nvm, i'm gonna persevere. Heh.

Anyway, had a real hilarious OBC tutorial tdy. Our usual tutor didn't come in cos he was down with a sore throat n his voice sounds sexy, according to him. Haha. So in comes this other tutor, whom we find really funny n whom we give lotsa nicknames to. :p So he was teaching abt carbohydrates n how to draw the structures, n we weren't listening cos we were too busy laughing at him. The words he pronounces n his lame jokes are too much for me man. It's so lame!!! Man, i was laughing lyk crap! Writing all this down reminds me of what happened, n is making me laugh right now. Hahahaha.

It seems lyk i laugh my head off almost everyday of the week when at sch. I know i shouldn't laugh too much, but i can't help it, with all the craziness goin on. Lyk i told Mimi, i think i'm gonna haf really hard, washboard abs by the time i finish school. Hahahaha.

Well, gotta go sleep now, cos tmr i'm gonna need energy to hold 800 buckeroos in my hands. Muahahahaha..............!

2005-07-22T13:39:00.000+08:00

Yeah baby! It's a Thurs tdy n the dreadfully dreaded day is over! Haha. I'm so looking forward to Friday cos it's the end of the week!! Though unfortunately, i hafta go to sch tmr for HAP lab and CSAS 2. It's ok, i don't mind going to school, cos i wouldn't haf anything to do at home anyway. Hehe.

Yesterday n tdy Mimi n me were laffing non-stop the whole day, particularly yesterday. We were juz crappin abt really stupid stuff but they crack us up so much we couldn't stop laughing till we got home and our stomachs were filled with air. Hahaha. And tdy i laughed alone to myself at the bus interchange and in the bus cos i received a msg from her abt a joke we made. Juz can't stand laughin man.

Kk den, i'm happy cos i've had my fill tdy.. *Grins* So until next time.

2005-07-20T13:18:00.000+08:00

Hey.. Didn't plan to blog tdy, but since im already on the net, i shall juz write down sum stuff. Hehe.

Tdy's the 2nd day of the 2nd term of the 1st semester. Heh. Juz now me n Sya waited for Mi who came half an hour late... We ended up reaching 10 mins late for our firz lecture. Mimi, u hafta treat us drinks n sweets!!! Muahahahaha!!

2005-07-18T02:30:00.000+08:00

Man. Tdy's the laz day of term break. Time really flies fast, even if u aren't havin fun. N i have been kinda slacking cos i didn't revise much. Juz read thru sum notes, juz abit of revising. Not too much, n i feel kinda bad abt it. Nvm, too late to regret anyway. Tdy still got sum time to revise a lil bit.

You noe what? Ever since i redeemed this notebook, i've switched it on every single day for more than a week! I really think it needs sum rest, but juz as im about to give it sum, either one of my siblings would ask me to let them use it. N then i would haf to switch it on again. It's not that im selfish or anything. I dun mind letting them use it, but i juz don't want the notebook to overheat or overload n spoil or sumthin. But then i would feel bad if i didn't let them use,-cos im tt kinda person-so i let them. Then aft tt i would worry whether switching it on and off would spoil it or shorten its lifetime or sumthin. I juz hope it doesn't. Maybe i'm juz a worrywart or a pessimist, thinking of all the bad things tt would happen if the notebook was switched on for a long time. Hahaha. After all, i paid for this "free" notebook with my own money ok. I ain't braggin here. :P

Ok im gonna stop complaining. Hafta go out later for agama. Hmm. It seems lyk it's gonna rain. Hope it doesn't rain when i go out though. Cya!

2005-07-14T01:13:00.000+08:00

So finally i can haf my term break back cos pipc extra lessons are over. But then i only haf a short one week break n i hafta revise too.Well, i might be goin out for the rest of the week anyway, so it's not reali a term break. Haha. Whatever la.

Man... It's onli been 2 weeks since i got my pay n i'm already dried out! Pay bills here n there, pay for my new notebook, food, transport n stuff n it all amounts to more than $800! But nvm la, hope nxt mth i dun have many things to pay for, so i can save more. Luckily i already set aside sum money for savings this mth.

Hmm.. But i gotta buy sum stuff for my personal use nxt mth. I need a handphone cos my handphone's gone haywire!! Juz ask my frens yesterday when they tried to call me n i didn't answer cos the answer button wasn't working. Even knocking the phone violently didn't help. Haha. N i need to buy a pair of running shoes. I've already thrown away my previous pair of Adidas ClimaCool shoes cos it was already torn and stinky. Haha. My mom said fishes in the sea would die immediately if i were to throw it into the sea. Lol. I need to exercise man. It's been 3 mths since i last went for a jog. N im growing sideways. Grrr. Wells, next mth, here i cum! hehe.

2005-07-11T13:55:00.000+08:00

Alright. I've finished my term tests last fri. I dun wanna talk abt how i did for the test. Bluek. Heheh. Finally i have a one week term break. But then tmr n tues i still hafta go to sch for PIPC, so wat's the use for a term break huh? Lol.

So, do u think my home pc is already fixed? Well, u r wrong! The onli reason i am able to blog here at nite is not becos i'm at the library, but becos i got my NOTEBOOK!!! Yep. Its a HP Compaq Presario M2000 series notebook. N i'm loving it! Heheh.

Went to redeem it at Funan IT Mall with Mimi on Sat. N Mimi was so jealous tt i got such a cool notebook.. Sori la Mimi.. Next time u get one, i'll go with u to get it ok? Heeez. I tell u, whenever we r out, we will always laff bout sumthing crappy or another. Den we would laff our heads off in the MRT until people would look at us (well, mostly at Mimi) thinking,"Budak ni Cina ke Melayu?" Wahahaha...!

Ok, so after i collected my notebook, we so-called went shopping at Seiyu Bugis with the intention of finding formal clothes for our formal presentation in August. We saw sum really nice jackets n blouses n pants, but didn't buy any cos we were waiting for our next pay. Hahaha. But then i saw a pair of Lawman jeans which looked really nice, so i juz had to buy it. N it is really really comfortable man! I haf a feeling tt it's gonna be one of my fav jeans. I'm a happy person. Heee.

On Fri, Nana, Lala, Mimi, Syasya n me went to eat at Far East to celebrate the end of our term test.. N the uncle was Lala's good friend, so he gave us free soup n fried prawns.. Mmmm.. Delish! I ordered a plate of oyster sauce chicken noodle n it was really nice too.. :P Den aft Lala went off to meet her *ahem*, the rest of us went window shopping. The sale was really tempting man. I seriously considered buying sum offer items but decided against it cos there weren't many clothes tt suited my taste.(and my size too. haha.)

Anyway this morning, i had to go for a charity run in conjunction with The President's Challenge. It was quite fun n quite fast, which i didn't expect it to be. Heh. All of us were talkin n laffin so much we didn't realise tt we reached Singapore General hospital already. And the guest-of-honour was Mr President himself doing exercises with us as well.. Not bad la, even though i had to wake up early on a Sunday morning.. Hahaha.

Oh btw, the song "An Honest Mistake" by The Bravery has been in my head this past few days. Dunno y, but its stuck in my head..! Maybe becos it has a catchy tune.. I do lyk the song la.. N Foo Fighter's "Best of You" has been in my head too.. It's such a nice song. Foo Fighters has its own distinct style of rock tt makes them unique n gets me hooked. N Green Day's "Wake Me Up When September Comes"... Man i love the tune of that song...

And to Mimi: Yah our EC man! That contradicting guy.. U noe wad i mean... Dun tell anybody hu he is. They probably won't noe anyway.. Haha. Can't wait to laff the next time we see him!(abt his contradicting background n stuff..) Lol.. Remember, he starts sch at 9am ok.. hahahaa... u silent killer u.. Hehe...Tak ku sangka kau berdiam diri, tapi sebenarnya ada udang di sebalik batu... Wahahahaha...

Ok den, gtg now. But hope to blog soon with more stuff to write abt!

2005-07-07T09:37:00.000+08:00

Hey man! My fave player Raul Gonzalez is in town for the firz time ever!!! But too bad i won't be able to see him in the streets or sumthin.. Sigh. Im so close yet so far to him. He's such a fave footballer of mine! Heh. But nvm la i get to see him on tv can already. N i juz love the way he speaks Spanish, with his authentic accent and all. Hehe. I learnt Spanish by myself for awhile, but i nvr really got the hang of it. N he's so funny cos i read in the papers tt he doesn't even noe he's famous here! Kesian. Haha.

The dumb comp at home is down! Dats why rite now im at the library writing all this. Man it's so screwed man. (See, its so screwed tt i said "man" twice in a sentence. Hehe.) Juz lyk i mentioned in one of my previous posts, it IS really screwed. The comp can be switched on, but Windows cant be started. But nvm, cos im getting A HEWLETT PACKARD NOTEBOOK NEXT WEEK!! Woohooo!! It's supposed to cum free with any signup for Starhub Maxonline Ultimate. But the the HP agent kept calling me n pestering me to upgrade the notebook. So i did, at a cost of $261. But its worth it, cos i got alot of stuff tt i wouldnt get if i had juz gone with the free one.
But then also, im gonna be at a loss cos i cant use the internet at home, but i still have to pay the phreakin hefty bill which i share with my sister!!! My share of the bill is 70++ bucks per mnth. Crazy, but its ok cos i get a laptop with it. Heee.

Anyways, this comp is quite screwed too la. HAha. Cos this is the 2nd time im writing this post. Dunno why, but it juz restarted itself all of a sudden. Dumb. Maybe computers juz dont lyk me? No, dat cant be right cos im such a lovable peson. Heheheee.

Well, 4 down, 2 more to go... This week is my term test week n whoa am i bushed! Juz had my HAP test juz now n i kinda crapped my way thru. Heee. N the only reason why im at the library now is because i've already finished my OBC revision for tmr's OBC test. Hehe. Juz 2 more tests! C'mon, i noe i can do it! Fri is the laz test, SFP!

Okay then guess i gotta go now cos it's getting really cold in the library. Brrrrr... :P

2005-07-01T14:13:00.000+08:00

I changed my mind. I don't lyk SFP labs. I HATE it. Fullstop. Dun ask why. I dun wanna hafta say why. Juz one sentence: Pop yAy yAy sux to the phreakin core!

During my slacking days before poly, i was gaining n gaining so much weight cos i was stuffing my face any chance i got. When i went into poly, i tot i would lose sum weight cos i figured i would be too busy to eat. Turns out im gaining even more weight although i am busy, cos ive been snacking n snacking n snacking all the way throughout lectures! Esp during thurs when i have 5 hrs of lectures straight. I juz gotta haf sumthin to chew on while listening to the lecture. Or else i'll get bored n start to fall asleep. Blame it on e mobile canteen which sells Collon, Pocky, Hello Panda, choc eclairs and baos!! Haha. Sigh. My probs are never-ending.

Tdy went to Tampines Mall with the intention of shopping, but i ended up not buying anything at all cos there wasn't anything tt suited my taste. There was this pair of nice jeans though, which was at a reasonable price, but i didn't wanna jump into buying so i didn't buy anything there. Haha.

School has been so hectic and crazy. Everything juz moves so fast i barely haf a chance to catch up. It's a real tough obstacle tt i hafta overcome man, n i noe i really really gotta be strong. Next week's my term test, but technically i only haf 3 days left to study! Man.. Crazy stress level. I hope to do well n not disappoint myself... Inshaallah.

Not only tt, my term break isn't even a break cos i hafta go back to sch as well as revise. So stress man. Problems, problems, problems. Why do u love me so much? Sigh.

Luckily there's no sch tmr. Gives me more time to study n get organised. Well then, gtg now. I juz feel sooo lethargic.

Juz a picture to express how i feel tdy.

2005-06-27T07:43:00.000+08:00

Ok ok.. Due to overwhelming requests, i shall update aft goin AWOL for 2 weeks. I juz feel so lazy to update.Hehe.

Well, since the last time i blogged here, alot of things haf happened at sch. I've been having crazy lectures, tutorials n labs. Its crazy cos every subject we take is being rushed cos we hafta follow a schedule. I mean, each new topic we are introduced to is so rushed man. Usually it takes abt one week to finish a whole topic, n not only tt, i still hafta revise n do tutorial for tt topic. Sigh. So rushing man. N guess wat? My term test is coming next week!!!! Man it's so soon. I've onli been schooling for a mth n term test is already coming up. Well, i guess this is the price to pay if i am on a bond huh? Nvm i noe n hope i can make it. Heheh.

I dun really like practicals cos its very troublesome la.. Esp PIPC n OBC pracs. I hate dealing with chemicals cos it so darn leceh man. haha. I like SFP pracs though. Cos i get to experiment with food n cook 'em n taste 'em! Hahaha.. Anything to do wif food, I LIKEEE!!! hehe. Laz Thurs we made vanilla pudding n it tasted nice!! Oh ya, we also had to experiment on how much time long grain rice takes to cook, but then the rice burnt.. The reason? I only put in 100ml of water when the instructions said 200ml! Haha. How dumb can i get? Lol.

Tutorials are ok cos i can understand n clarify what i don't understand during lectures. Lectures are a whole diff thing man. I get so phreakin sleepy during lectures esp if they aren't interesting. On Thurs we were havin 2 hrs of PIPC lecture n it was abt balancing chemical equations. I couldn't bother much n anyway i was so damn sleepy, i gave in n closed my eyes, drifting into dreamland. Den in between being half-awake n half-asleep, i could feel that i was moving n moving... U noe the kind of moving tt happens when u r sooo sleepy...? Yeah tt happened to me. N when i woke up, i was being laughed at n teased for my funny way of sleeping. Hahah. So embarassing. But it's ok. I get tt all the time n i'm used to it. Heh.

On Friday, me, Syasya n Mimi decided to stop by at Bugis to eat at Banquet Raffles Hospital. Had fried hokkien noodles.. Man it was soo delish! I onli wished i had a cam to take a foto of what i ate. But frankly speaking, it was a tad too salty n made me feel sooo thirsty. Heee. Den we walked arnd Bugis Junction n Seiyu was having a sale man!! It was the laz 3 days.. Sadly we haven't gotten our allowances so we could only stare n regret over the cheap prices. Sigh. Ouh. N on Friday too, we had our CSAS2 individual presentation test. Man i tink i screwed up!! Although Mrs Sumathi said no one failed, i still feel regret for not doing more to improve on my speaking. Nvm im gonna learn from my mistakes.

Yesterday i had a family outing! Heh. Went to Seoul Garden at Jurong Pt! Mmmmmm... I was cooking n eating lyk nobody's business.. hehe.. I'm gonna be a Home Econs teacher wat.. Lol. N i tried Seoul Garden's sushi for the first time.. Yummy! Love the salmon roe sushi cos it feels as though its melting in ur mouth.... Yummmm.

Anyways, i gotta go now cos i really really hafta study n revise all my subjects man. Onli one wk left to term test n i can't screw up! Cya in a couple of days time.

2005-06-11T14:50:00.000+08:00

Life in TP has been a mixture of fun, crazyness, stress n confusion. Fun cos i haf fun n outgoing friends. DiWaNa MiSyaLa we are called.. Short forms for our names. Crazyness cos we are always laughing about sumthing. Stress cos i have 3 upcoming tests for 3 heavy subjects next wk!!! Confusion cos AC11 is usually thrown arnd between LTs for lectures juz becos we are a small class. Hrmpphh.

Ouh. Got my first allowance from MOE. $232.26.. Dunno why there are 26 cents though.. Lol.

I wasnt supposed to haf sch tdy but i had to go anyway to attend a NE forum. Dumbo. But gd la cos i completed my compulsory attendance for 2 NE forums throughout my 3 yrs in TP. Yays.

Anyway i went to eat at SP Pizza Hut b4 sch with Mimi n Syasya tdy! Hahas. Cheap cheap!! Well, at least it's cheaper than outside Pizza Hut. Lol. Den Mimi saw her friend who asked her wat she was doing there although she goes to TP. N she told him she was meeting her friend. Haha. Yah Mimi, ur friend's name is "Pizza Hut" rite? Wahahaha. Den we ordered takeaway cos there wasn't any seats inside n outside the restaurant. So there we were, walking arnd, lost, obviously looking lyk a non-SP student. Haha. N den Syasya went to ask a student where the empty tables are, which is lyk a dead giveaway tt we aren't SP students! Hahaha. So luckily we got a table n we sat down there eating wif Mimi laughing n laughing with no reason. Haha. Mimi, Mimi. Everytime laugh lyk mad ar u... Funny sia. N Mimi keeps singing tt "Si Sua Sua" cheer..!!! Hahaha.. Tak leh ang la. Syasya also very funi man.. Whenever the 3 of us are arnd, we r sure to laugh n laugh n laugh lyk mad i tell ya. Den we were saying tt if we had a camp or chalet or sumthing we surely couldnt sleep cos we would be laughing our heads off the whole nite. Hahaha.

When we were at TCC during the NE forum, DiWaNa MiSyaLa n Clarissa entertained ourselves by SMSing each other although we were all sitting in the same row. Haha. Reali dumb man. But veri fun. Lol. N Nana was taking photos with her Sony Ericsson phone which makes tt irritating "snap!" sound which the cam makes everytime it snaps a photo. So irritating man the sound!!! N its also so damn comical. Haha. N the NE speaker was this interestingly funny guy who has no prob with his huge frame. Hehe. N he ended his speech by singing Josh Groban's "You Raise Me Up".. N his voice was not bad, i muz say! Hehee.

Anyways there is this election thing goin on for the TP Student Union. N dats y there are so many posters of the ppl running for various posts. N there is this one person who particularly stands out cos his poster was so freaking hilarious man! He pasted his face over a Darth Vader poster so its actuali him as Darth Vader la.

My poor younger bro bought Need for Speed Underground 2 for 50 bucks but wasnt able to play it cos this comp's drivers aren't updated! Kesian seh. Cos he told me he saved up the money he got which is abt 5 bucks from helping out at the mosque every Friday. Haha. So cute la he. Nvm he'll be able to play it when someone buys a less screwed pc. Hehee.

Tdy i didnt haf sch!! glad cos it means i can relax at home. hehe. but i still got a few tutorials to do n i hafta go thru my lecture notes or else, trust me, i'll forget evrything within a few hrs. haha. Now i can gladly say that i spent a week in poly! Well, almost, since Monday was a public holiday n tdy no sch. heh.

Also, this week has been a reali expensive week man. Luckily i worked for a while cos if i hadn't my dad wouldnt haf the money to pay for all these expenses. Spent $44.30 on two lab coats AND only ONE ziploc bag although there's 2 lab coats (wth?), $73 on two really thick n heavy books which i had to lug home yesterday, $25 on lecture notes, abt $30 for travel (damn expensive adult fares!!!), n maybe abt $10 for food throughout the wk. N this does not include the money i spent on oth miscellaneous items which i didnt take note of. Man sooo much money spent!! Arghh. Nvm la getting my mthly allowance fr MOE soon. heheh.

The Great Singapore Sale is starting tmr!! (if im not wrong la.) Haha. Am gonna look for bargains for clothes man. I am so in need of a new wardrobe. N now tt im in a poly, i can't juz wear the same thing over n over again, rite? Surely someone's gonna notice n tink tt i don't change my clothes. Haha.

2005-05-26T13:58:00.000+08:00

Hey hey.. Been a reali damn long time since i updated huh? Well i've been reali tired since laz wk wen i had orientation on the 19th n 20th May.. Oh ya speaking of which, though i didn't get any presents, i wanna say thanks to everyone who sent me SMSes wishing me a Happy B'dae.. Thx u guys for remembering.. heheh.

Ok back to the orientation bit. I hafta say it was quite fun but they shouldn't haf expected every single one of us to noe the things they taught at the camp la. I mean sum ppl lyk me didn't go, so we didn't noe sum stuff n were abit kekok. Anyways, it was fun except tt they should play games without water. Every game tt we had must haf the involvement of water man. It's not only a waste of water, (which i'm very conscientious abt mind u, hehehe) it also drenches us unnecessarily. Wahahaha. I sound so naggy man. Anyways i was so pooped on both days. Reali tired man, esp aft travelling abt 1 hr+ back home.

So i officially started school yesterday. It was ok cos this whole wk we only haf lectures. But of course it was making me sleepy... haha. Managed to cope though. There was a sports CCA thingy n i considered joining but then decided against it cos i may not be able to cope. Maybe nxt semester i might take up a CCA den..

Tdy was ok too. We had 4 hrs of lecture starting fr 9am all the way to 1pm. After tt we were free!!! But then there was this NE forum thingy tt was compulsory for us to attend fr 3-5pm. It was draggy but at least we left TP at 5pm.

Sigh... My timetable is sooo packed! Tues n Thurs are reallly bad days man. Cos there r lectures, tutorials n labs from 8am all the way to 6pm with onli 1 hr break. That's so sad. But nvm la. The road to success is never smooth so i gotta be more positive. Hehe. Fridays r the best cos i onli got lab session from 9-12. heheh.

Gotta go now. Haf a lecture fr 8-9am tmr n from 11 all the way to 6!! So gotta sleep early n wake up early. But i can rejoice cos i need not go to sch on Fri cos i got no lectures!! Yayyy!! hahaha..

2005-05-15T09:58:00.000+08:00

Yeah i noe.. changed skin again... haha.. but i cant help it la. Since its the Star Wars craze, i shall use a Star Wars skin. n im a star wars fan. hehe. maybe aft the craze den i put up the Orli skin back. keke..

2005-05-14T08:36:00.000+08:00

2 days ago, i watched The Amazing Race finale. N i am soooo glad tt Uchenna & Joyce won..! Really tink they deserve it. N it was such a relief tt Rob & Amber weren't the winners. I dunno why but i juz don't like the both of em. Haha. they are soo damn competitive. Win Survivor already not enough, still join amazing race. n in the finale, they were like this pair of irritating flies who juz didn't wanna buzz off man. Juz when i tot they were left far behind, here they cum overtaking Uchenna & Joyce who had a flat tire. Grr. N if tt wasn't enough, they had to take the earlier flight to Miami. luckily the pilot of the flight decided to take in Uchenna & Joyce. If not i couldnt haf imagined Rob & Amber winning the race man. Anyway i tink Uchenna & Joyce make a great couple n a great team cos they really persevere n support each other throughout the race.

So anyways. Im still sick tdy n haf a sore throat. n i haven't even chopped off the mop on my head i call hair. Arghhh. i hafta do so b4 nxt wk wen i go TP!! I can't go to school looking lyk dis. Man. Nvm la. Tink i'll haf to find time to cut my hair nxt wk den. im kinda nervous to go for the fresman orientation nx wk. cos i barely noe anyone there!!! haha. It's scary yet exciting....

2005-05-12T07:21:00.000+08:00

Yay...! Changed my blogskin again(as u can c).. Really lyk it cos its my hard work.. heheh. Actually the backgrnd pic is a pic of Orly himself. but cant c his face cos its covered by his oth pics. n even if the pics weren't there his face still can't be seen cos of the effect. here's the original pic of him. He looks so hotttt man. keke. but then i tink it's scary tt sumtimes he looks lyk a cross between David Beckham n Justin Timberlake. hehehe.

2005-05-12T03:47:00.000+08:00

Sobs. I'm down with a stupid cold... Feeling really thrashy tdy man. Throat feels really dry, nose is running lyk its on a marathon or sumthing.. Arghhh.. N i couldn't sleep yesterday cos i was busy coughing n blowing my nose. Sniffing sum medicated oil did get rid of my blocked nose, but it only led to an even runnier nose. Sigh.

Oh btw.. Went out wid Nadia on Friday... Initially i wanted to shop for clothes but ended up not buying any. Haha. Man im seriously in need of new clothes for poly...! Den we juz jalan2 at orchard.. Went to HMV Heeren, decided to buy a VCD starring Orlando Bloom titled "The Calcium Kid".. Hehe. It's a mockumentary of an amateur boxer n milkman, Jimmy Connelly, played by Orlando, who is forced into a match with a world-champion boxer after a series of unexpected events. It's got lots of British humour so it's quite funny la. I would recommend u to watch it cos there's Orlando...! Wahaha. So anyways, we were walking at the overhead bridge near Far East Plaza there n we saw the singer Jai.. Haha. Den i joked tt i was jealous of him cos he got nice long n straight hair which would look nice on a woman. Lol.

The Calcium Kid

Wanna cut my hair...! Really cant stand it anymore man. Feels so hot with long hair. Anyway i noe i dun suit long hair. Guess im gonna be staying wid short hair for the rest of my life. Heheh. I wanna cut my hair lyk dis. It's Keira Knightley's most recent hairstyle.. I tink it looks really nice on her n it really suits her but im not sure how it would turn out on me though...

2005-05-03T05:54:00.000+08:00

It's official. Im now officially a student of Temasek Poly. Heheh. So now all i hafta do is wait n wait n wait again till semester commences.

It's official. Tis blog is a conspiracy cos how else can it be possible tt the owner of tis blog always goes AWOL for 10 days exactly? Haha.

It's official. Im gonna haf a sucky face on my matriculation card throughout my yrs at TP. Sigh. Another official thing: I'm definitely not photogenic at all. Period. Seems lyk the camera n the mirror work differently. My face in a picture is different from my face as i see it in the mirror. Grrr.

And finally...

Its official. I don't and will never ever understand human behaviour. Especially when it comes to nagging. Why must it be done? Isn't it juz a waste of time n breath, when the other party doesn't wanna listen? Isn't it juz sooo irritating? I don't mind getting chided or being given advice. But i really can't stand nagging.

Well, tt's all for today's entry which turns out to be an "official" one. Haha. Stupid joke.

2005-04-23T10:26:00.000+08:00

Hmmm... i noticed sumthing.. y isit tt evrytime i go AWOL on tis blog, it's 10 days? haha... coincidence man. anyways juz sum updates...

-i'm so sad Anwar Robinson is outta American Idol..! I mean he is a great singer, n he's really cool.. i really would like to see him go on to be in the final 3... with Bo Bice... yeah Bo is another contestant i lyk on AI. I lyk the 2 'R's: the Rocker n the Rastafarian! But too bad Anwar's out.. Sigh.. so may i say to the American voters... Vote Wisely!!!

-been so bummed at home!!! It's abt 1 more mth b4 sch starts n i seriously cant wait. of course i noe tt once i start sch im gonna say the ooposite.. lol. but rite now all i want is sumthing to do.

-20 April was my dad's bdae n my sis planned a laz-minute surprise, together wif my family, for him. She even pretended tt she didn't noe it was dad's b'dae, to my dad's disappointment. when we took out the cake n said Happy Birthday, my dad was surprised n had tis really funi shocked face on.. hahaha.. it was so classic man. too bad we didn't take a picture of his face. so hilarious.

Well gotta go now. Hope it won't be 10 days b4 i write another entry..hahah.

2005-04-13T11:54:00.000+08:00

Haven't been updating for a long time rite? Well, 10 days to be exact. Ok let me try to recount the events which happened in some of those 10 days..

5th april: Went for a medical checkup at Raffles Hospital. Well i can't exactly say i was scared n i can't say i wasn't either. Let's juz say hospitals haf a certain atmosphere that while it isn't exactly welcoming, it's not unwelcoming either. Huh? Wad the hell am i rambling on abt? Haha. i oso dunno. d'oh. Anyways, did certain things tt im not used to doing. Lyk collecting my urine in a small container (for a urine sample) and wearing a hospital robe with no shirt n bra underneath. (for a chest x-ray) =x wahahahahaha.. felt so weird man. but glad tt's all over.

9th april: Went to MOE headquarters to sign the Teacher Training Agreement. Had to bring 2 ppl along as sureties. So i brought my dad n my uncle. It was really quick; i nvr expected it to be tt way. Anyways, when i was goin home wif my dad on the MRT, my dad made a few laughable things tt im not gonna mention here in order not to embarass him. Although he is computer illiterate. haha. but of corse, as the busybody in the house, i already told my whole family abt the incidents n we all had a gd laugh abt it. even my dad. hahahaha.

Today: Nothing much happened tdy. The usual monotonous cycle of my life. So boring man. Argh. Cant wait to start sch. At least then i have things to do. :P

Tmr im goin Temasek Poly to submit an application for my admission to TP... So till den, i may not update as frequently as i did b4... but then again, it's not as if ppl cum by my blog n actually get down to reading it... haha.

2005-04-03T10:24:00.000+08:00

Woohoo! i made sum more Choc pudding tdy. hehe.. It's improved! taste much nicer. but then i think the choc sauce on top is a bit toooo sweet. *smacks lips* Mmmmm... sinful indulgence...

2005-04-01T10:11:00.000+08:00

Alhamdullilah! I got accepted into the Teacher Training Scheme!!! Juz received a letter from MOE tdy. Yay..!! But then, wen i read all the terms n conditions, i feel sooo intimidated by the many obligations tt i have to abide by. Even hafta go for a medical checkup. Hope there's nothing wrong wid me.... Oh well, i noe i have Allah to guide me thru! N as long as i strive for the best and always have Allah in my thoughts, i'll be ok. Fuyooh.. So happy... hehehe.

2005-03-31T17:22:00.000+08:00

As u can c, i've already changed my blogskin.(again) And yes, it is one of my creations n im real proud of it! Lols. Was juz browsing the net n saw pics of Orly n fell in love with him all over again! Wahahaha.

2005-03-31T09:34:00.000+08:00

Yes yes i noe. I noe tt i havent been updating for a long time. Reason being im juz too lazy. hehe. Actually been spending lotsa time creating blogskins. Tink im addicted! Anyways i have nothing to do at home so busying myself with creating blogskins is a gd way to kill time. lol.

Anyways, let me update u ppl on my life in point form! Yes, i juz lurvee point forms...! :P

- I got accepted to Temasek Poly for Dip. in Applied Food Science & Nutrition. Though it's my firz choice, i hope i get my other firz choice: the teacher training scheme.

- Speaking of the teacher training scheme, they haven't informed me whether i got accepted or not! Darn. It's been 2 wks since tt interview. they haven't forgotten abt me, haf they? Oh pls tell me they didn't. Pls tell me i got accepted! Arghhhh!

- My bro came back from Tekong 5 days ago: laz Thurs. I muz say the 2 wks really did him gd man! He looks much fresher and tougher. Not forgetting darker too! Lol. Fresher cos he has to get up n out since he started his NS. Cos b4 NS, he always slept till late in the afternoon n always looks tired. haha. Tougher cos i can c his muscles are really pumped! Finally he's getting sum exercise.wahaha. Even my mom said he has broader chests now which look lyk they belong to Sylvester Stallone...! LOLZ!!!! That's exaggerating, but it's true tt he has a tougher body now. So, the next step is to haf a body lyk Arnold Schwarzenegger ok bro? Wahahaha. Of course he's gone back to Tekong 2 days ago n will only cum back on weekends fr now on.

- Jamie Oliver is my new idol! Not cos of his looks, but the fact tt he's a great chef! hehe. I juz lurvee the way he brings himself around in his kitchen n his style of cooking is superb. He doesn't worry abt being neat n tidy in his kitchen, he juz does wad he does. N the result? Fantastic dishes n desserts. Yummm!

- So, after watching Jamie Oliver, i was so inspired tt i decided to try my hand at baking. Hehe. Decided to try out the recipe for CHOCOLATE PUDDING by Jamie Oliver. Really simple n easy recipe. Also decided to bake sum Famous Amos Chocolate Chip Cookies for which i found the recipe in my sis's recipe file.

-On Monday, went to Giant hypermarket to shop for the ingredients. Torture man! Had to lug everything home by foot since i live near. But still, the bags were so damn heavy! haha. So, reached home, rested for awhile n started baking the choc pudding firz. I was soooo glad cos the final result was a success! Muahaha!! It almost tasted lyk cake n my whole family loved it! Yay!! hehe. Den i baked the cookies. Firz 2 trays turned out to be double dark choc chip cookies,as in they were burnt!! haha.! but the other 3 trays turned out fine n the taste... woohooo!!! so delish!! but i hafta admit, it was abit toooooo sweet. but nvm, it turned out well anyways. heheh. So there, my firz try at baking, n it was encouraging! Am gonna try baking again sumtime. Will try putting up pics of my "masterpieces" soon. hehe.

-Oh ya!!! The after-effects of my experience in baking only showed up on Monday nite. My right hand was so sore man!! the result of lugging the bags home fr Giant n also not using a mixer but using manual labour... I couldn't sleep the whole nite man.. Woke up every 2 hrs to the throbbing pain in my arm...Was sooo tortorous.. So pitiful rite? hehee. Luckily now its much better.

-Hmm, my point forms aren't exactly pointform rite? since they are sooo long.. wahaha.. but hu cares? it's my blog anyway. i play by my own rules... LOL..

Ok den, dats one blardy long entry! So gonna end here... Ouh. If u guys haf time, go c the blogskins i created at blogkins.com!!! My nick there is afraxo. Got sum nice ones i made but havent uploaded yet. Maybe lata. Meanwhile, enjoy!

2005-03-21T15:55:00.000+08:00

I had a bad day tdy. Sigh. How unlucky can i get? Ok firzly, i was supposed to haf religious class tdy. but wen i reached dere, the lights were off n the doors closed! argh! so dere was no class tdy n i wasn't informed. grr. so aft dat, i decided to go to NTUC fairprice which was nearby to buy sum stuff. bought sum snacks n a 1-litre carton of Daisy choc milk. Wen i got home n took the carton out, i was surprised to find dat the carton was bloated n looked lyk it was gonna explode. weird, cos wen i took it from the supermarket, it wasn't dat way. i thought nothing of it n opened the carton n poured it into my cup. as soon as my tongue tasted the milk, i was lyk, "EEUUGHHH!". cos guess wat? i juz tasted SOUR milk. it was damn spoiled!! i felt so cheated! but the expiry date was stated as 25 March. stupid man.

Anyways, talked to ma bro hu's in tekong rite now. pity him cos b4 going to tekong he sounded so excited to serve his ns n becum a soldier. now he juz sounds tired on the fone. awwww. hahaha.. but nvm la. i noe he can tahan. he's quite tough. wahaha.

2005-03-19T18:25:00.000+08:00

haha. im not trying to be more feminine or anything with the pink layout. n neither am i trying to promote Lacoste's Touch of Pink perfume. I juz lyk the advertisement n the song. heheh.

2005-03-19T15:54:00.000+08:00

Went for the teacher training scheme interview yesterday. Didn't expect it to turn out the way it did tho. Well, not in a bad way la. It turned out ok n was juz lyk any other English oral exam. But tis time, there were 3 ppl sitting in front of me n bombarding me with all kinds of qns! So u can imagine how nerve-wrecking it was. Surprisingly, i didn't feel tt nervous wen i started yakking the answers to their qns! haha. I felt sorta comfortable, strangely enough. Luckily only 2 out of the 3 of dem did the talking. The other person juz sat down n relak-ed one corner. heheh. I can't exactly say i aced the interview, cos i would be lying. N hope i'll get the results soon!! Hope i'll make it...!! Arghhh!! Ok, im juz glad its all over. Phew! Now dats one less thing to worry abt!

Wanna give a shoutout to "passerby" who's been tagging recently... Hey, thx 4 giving sum life to my tagboard. It was on the verge of being a "tagBORED"! wahahahaha... get it? Okok.. lame la Salwa... N those of u reading this, dun juz do tt! Go n leave a tag! Im in need of some drama in my blog! Heheheheh.

2005-03-12T13:51:00.000+08:00

Get this: Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles arrived in S'pore in 1970. Ok, u guys muz be thinking: Do I really think Sir Stamford Raffles came to S'pore in 1970? Well, it wasn't me hu said tis. In fact, it was a fellow S'porean. Lyk, wad the hell??? Raffles came to S'pore in 1970? Well, he must be staying in Raffles Hotel right now. Eh hellloooo... Weren't u taught in PRIMARY SCHOOL tt Raffles came to S'pore in 1819?? N the cheek of tt person cos it was said on LIVE NATIONAL RADIO! Another person also didn't have a hoot hu William Farquhar was! Luckily these people were contestants on an early morning radio show and aren't the DJs. I was so flabbergasted man. Heart pain sia. N they call themselves S'poreans. Ugh.

Ok dat happened yesterday. Tdy was another thing. Also happened on radio. There was tis contest where u stand a chance to win the new Sony MP3 player if u answer correctly to related qns. N i dun c why any1 can ans wrongly cos b4 the contest, the DJs already read out information which were DIRECT answers to those qns. One qn went: What metal is the casing of the MP3 player made of? 1 contestant asnwered: Metallic! ok dat was lyk DUH. So the DJ gave a hint tt it is a light metal: think ALUMINIUM. So the other contestent gave a worse answer: Titanium. WAHAHAHA. Crazy ah?? Where gt company use titanium for their metal parts one?? And to think tt contestant said he work in the IT sector. More heart pain sia tdy. Haha.

Anyways......

Alhamdulillah! I received a letter from MOE tdy asking me to come for an interview for the teacher training scheme! Phew! I'm relieved i got the letter. Now to overcome another hurdle: the interview itself. Argh! Hope i can ace the interview now...!

So tmr my bro is goin to Tekong for his NS. Muahahas. Wish him luck n hope he can tahan the trainings!!! N i'm gonna send him off... Haha.

Fuyooo... Tdy my feet hurt lyk mad ah. Walk so much tdy. Ouch. Oh ya. Think my ears can't handle the noise dat has been coming out of the nagging machine. Grrrr.

2005-03-08T09:03:00.000+08:00

Wheee!! I got my 3rd paycheck tdy!! haha...nw i can go spend...no la...actually gotta save sum $$$...cos dun tink i'll be working for quite a while... but if i get a job, then dat wld be great cos i can hve xtra $$$ to spend...! hehe...

2005-03-04T11:47:00.000+08:00

Ok i have already made my decision n submitted it online. Phew! Now dats one less thing to worry abt.Heezz.

2005-03-03T17:10:00.000+08:00

Problem problem problem. Why?? Why can't i seem to make my decision? It's juz so difficult for me. I realli dunno man. Time is running out. I'd better make my choices now or i'll end nowhere. Arghh!!! 12 choices. 1 single outcome. And an extra option. Dats the teacher training scheme option. Yep, i really really wanna get into the teacher training option man. I hope the option comes my way. It's lyk the only thing i've been rooting for. Guess dats y i haven't thought abt my backup plans in case i dun get accepted. It's really been the only thing for my future tt i've thought abt. I noe, i only got a short time left before submitting my applications thru the JAE. I am really confused. Help needed, immediately! Sigh.

2005-02-27T16:33:00.000+08:00

Went to Temasek Poly open hse tdy wid Nadia. Skipped work to do tt..Hehe. Too bad there was no Dip. in CST booth at the Applied Science School.. But den overall the open hse was ok.. TP is big, but the guide told us tt the school is considered small compared to oth polys..Lyk dat den i cant imagine how big the oth polys will be... haha.

The bus proved to me yet again tt whenever i wait 4 it, it will cum late.Stoopid. Grrr.. N also, now,taxis haf convinced me tt they won't cum to u wen u want one, but they will cum to u when u r at the side of the road,not flagging down a taxi, but trying to cross the road. D'oh.

Aw man. Embarassment muz be my mutual fren. N i shall not talk abt it cuz it's an embarassment.Duh. :P

Summing up some events in point form:

-Have u been in a situation where u felt tt sumhow u had no choice but to fall back on ur words? Im afraid of being in tt situation.
-Sumtimes, i take a long time to contemplate things. It was only tdy tt i realised "Scooby-Doo" looks lyk he is. N he's quite cute. Haha.
-Sum ppl r juz so ignorant to the fact tt they r an IRRITANT.
-In the working world, ppl want to impress the bigger heads, n thus, the DIRTY truth is literally swept under the rug.
-$50.00 is ALOT of money!!! (only sum ppl will understand dis. *wink*)
-Certain human behaviour is sumtimes unexplainable.
-The person u think is ur enemy at first, may turn out to be ur best friend.
-Lastly, Im feeling kinda JIWANG tdy. Heh. Thus, explaining the song. :P (For those hu dunno, jiwang=sentimental)

"Have you ever loved somebody so much
It makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever, have you ever"

Y do buses always cum late when u want them to cum early? Grrr... Dis whole week i have been soooo pissed off with bus 187. When the 6.54 bus comes, i either miss it or i ain't able to board it cos it's full. N the stupid thing is tt there's still space at the back, n the *toot* ppl (mostly students) dun wanna move in. As a result, i hafta wait for the nxt bus which cums as n when it lyks. Sumtimes it cums at 7.10, sumtimes even as late as 7.20!!!! N i had to reach Boon Lay bus interchange by 7.45!! Sum more the trip takes abt 40 mins....! Arghhh!!

N wen i reach work, tis really irritating bangla guy keeps pestering me man...! Shit him la.. Doesn't he get the msg tt i dun wanna talk to him?? He keeps insisting on belanja-ing me n my friends lunch n drinks.. I mean, i juz dun wanna accept aniting fr him cos i dun wanna feel lyk i owe him aniting. Wen i politely decline, he still keeps on insisting..! Damn him lar. Doesn't he noe tt he's so irritating??!?!!?!Lata i rudely decline den he noe..Stupid sey... Den tdy summore he ajak me, res n nad out to Clarke Quay tmr to makan2. Eeeewwww!!! I'll never, never, ever, ever go out with him or any oth bangla 4 tt matter in a million yrs man!!! den i told him, "u gt friend, go out wid them la!" Mcm takde kwn gitu. Padahal bangla2 ader byk kat luar! Euughh!! I feel lyk punching him man..! Stupid JABRONI!!!!

Anyways, lets talk positive now. Yesterday i watched "Flight of the Phoenix". It was undoubtedly the best show i've watched in quite a long time. Well, at least it was better than "Constantine". I really enjoyed the movie. It has a really balanced mixture of suspense, adventure n best of all, minimal romance! I mean, almost every movie u watch nowadays has so much romance tt sumtimes it clouds over the main theme of the movie. N i watched it with my siblings. U can call it the "siblings' day out". haha. Juz me, my sis, my elder n younger bro. Sibling-bonding session la katakan.. Keke..

Ok den, gotta go nw. Am gonna blog soon, cos i consider maself a blog-addict now! Wahaha...

2005-02-10T15:02:00.000+08:00

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR to all those celebrating! Anyways, i'm gonna be spending my CNY hols by watching movies. Yup, tdy i watched Constantine. Tmr i'm gonna watch Flight of the Phoenix. Haha. Actually it's all my sis's idea.. There's one catch though. She won't be belanja-ing me the movie..But food she will..hehe..

Anyways, Constantine was ok. It was abit confusing to me since it was adapted from a comic book n u gotta read the comic b4 understanding the story fully.. Sis made me walk from my hse to JE Entertainment Centre.. Grr...it's gd excercise for me, according to her, n can save $$$ on transport too..hah.. Hu's the one hu blew ur money on a $300 Coach wallet...? Haha.. (Kak, kalo tgh baca ni, jgn marah eh...keke) Ate breakfast at Long John's. Our food was ready only aft waiting 4 more than 15 mins...Grrr..Ended up in the cinema theatre 2 a few minutes aft the movie started.. Long John's haf slow workers man...

I'll leave u with a pic taken with my sis on our trip tdy, at LJS.

Me n Sistah!

2005-02-09T11:18:00.000+08:00

2005-02-06T15:23:00.000+08:00

2005-02-04T14:22:00.000+08:00

Work tdy was ok. Dats becos tmr is already Friday! I am so glad the weekend is near. I can go shopping this weekend! Wahahahahaha... Got a new nickname for the supervisor. Ci-Ci... hhahahaha.. It's such a funny name when u pronounce it out loud. Its pronounced as "chi", not "si".. Ci-Ci is a suitable nick for her.. Man, it's so funny.. We no longer call her "Alien" anymore.. Wahahahahahaha..Tdy had alot of laughs man. Me n Res recounted our primary school nickname-calling days, n i was in stitches..! Looking back, i realise dat i haven't changed my crappy ways since my pri sch days..Haha!

2005-02-03T14:07:00.000+08:00

A BIG shoutout to all my friends!!! Miss u guys... Anyways, i already bought the wristband. It says: "Stretch Your Limit". But i still welcome suggestions as to where to get the wristbands...

Tdy i saw the Myanmar guy at work, but was too paiseh to look at him n sae hi.. haha.. Dats typical of me.. Oh ya.. it was all a misunderstanding. The Myanmar guy's name isn't Rozy. He probably typed wrongly cos he's still learnin to SMS. His English name is Roy, given to him by the aunties. His Myanmar name is Ba Nyar or sumthin lyk dat. No wonder the aunties gave him an easier name to pronounce. Roy. Haha.

My bro juz received his NS enlistment letter tdy. Finally, finally, finally he's goin to serve his NS! Aft yrs of deferment... N he was goin on and on abt how his life is gonna be during army. N he also kept singing "Soldier" by Destiny's Child.. Wahaha.. He's so damn funny man... i can't stop laughing at how he sang the song. He didn't noe the lyrics, so he was lyk creating sum funny words for the lyrics... hahaha... Strangely, he sounds excited. Weird.. Hahahahaha... :P

2005-01-30T05:26:00.000+08:00

Tdy's Saturday! I'm not goin out tdy. Juz chillin' at home, maybe catching up on some of my precious sleep time. Hehe.

2005-01-27T11:54:00.000+08:00

Tdy's mid-week! I am happy tt there is only 2 more days of work! I have a new goal: lose weight!!!! Argh!

2005-01-14T14:09:00.000+08:00

Work is a vicious cycle. Wake up in the morning, travel to work, work n work for 9 hrs, go home, sleep, n the cycle starts again................................But luckily, tmr is Friday!!! Friday, friday, friday... i Love u Friday!! haha..Actually i find workin there quite ok.. The only prob is tt it gets pretty boring though. Anyways, i tink i can tahan for another 28 days. Yes, i count the days till i quit. Haha. ok, i'll take my leave now. Cya soon!

2005-01-08T14:27:00.000+08:00

It's finally Friday!!! Yay!!! Phew... Tis wk was really draining for me. But im looking forward to the weekend!! Woohoo...! Work is soooooo boring man... Tdy i almost fell asleep during work! Dat's how boring u can imagine it to be. If there's one thing i've learnt fr working there, its to never ever expect time to fly when you're not having fun. N believe me, time crawls sooooo slowly man. But overall, i tink the job is not bad la. 5 bucks per hr pays for all my expenses, n the people dere r friendly too.. N me, doreen n alicia can get some "entertainment for the eyes".. Wahahahaha... Right doreen n alicia...? haha..

2005-01-06T13:50:00.000+08:00

Tdy is an event in history cos i received my first-ever paycheck!!! Im proud to say tt i really earned by myself, with my own sweat n blood...! Haha.. Tt's abit extreme, considering i've only been working for almost 2 weeks. Haha. Anyways, can't write much cos i haf to sleep n get ready for work tmr.. I'm meeting Doreen in bus 187 tmr.. In fact, i meet her in the bus almost everyday... Hehe.. kk gotta go now. Am gonna blog in a few days' time. Cya!

2005-01-01T12:04:00.000+08:00

"Clang clang clang!!!!!!" Tt's the sound i've been hearing all week. If u wanna noe wat makes dat sound, that's the sound of metal against metal. N u wanna noe y i've been hearing it all week? It's cos i got a job! Yes, i got a job at a factory packing metal parts. Yep, a job. N it's all no thanks to the job agency i signed up with! Lousy job agency, 4 not getting me a job. I have to admit, this job is pretty ok, except it gets really boring. I mean, hu wouldn't, aft sitting for abt 9 hrs packing metal parts. N i am suffering fr back aches. Ouch. I work in an air con room, so its really cold. Am working wid Doreen n Alicia.

Anyways, enough whining. Doreen wants her to be mentioned here, so i will. Haha. Doreen, if u r reading this, i already write abt u...! Hehe.

2004 is leaving in like, 4 hrs n i will nvr, ever see it again...! Many gd n bad memories dis yr, i muz say.. It's been a year of ups n downs, from graduation, to O Levels, etc.. There's still so much tt happened tis yr, too much to even write down.. But whatever it is, these memories will always be lodged in my mind n i'll nvr 4get em. Life has to go on, n i'm looking forward to a great start to the new yr, starting with my O Level results...! Oh man.. I'm gonna noe how well i did in abt 2 mths...! N trust me, 2 mths is not a long time. *Snap*, n Feb would already be here.. Hope 2005 will be a great yr. Goodbye, 2004, hello 2005!

Kk..I'm too tired to write anything else.. Juz 1 last thing b4 i leave...

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2005!!!

2004-12-27T04:44:00.000+08:00

2004-12-20T13:33:00.000+08:00

Sigh.. Yesterday watched "Summer Scent" last episode, aft watching it for 19 episodes... Sadly, i didn't really understand the ending... Y did the both of them look at each other in the rain without doin anythin??? N i don't understand wat Huiyuan meant by wat she said... I dun understand the ending... Anyone pls fill me in??? Personally, i think it's really stupid of Huiyuan to let go of Minyu juz lyk dat if she likes him so much. But what the heck, it's a korean soap drama anyway n it's meant to be complicated n lengthy.. Hmmm... wat am i doin, writin abt korean soap dramas anyway...? Wahaha... but i have to admit, i onli watched the show 4 Song Seung Heon.. hehe... He's a handsome Korean. So is Won Bin.( another Korean actor :P )

Can't wait to get hold of Taufik's album n oso watch his debut music video!! taufik is juz so inspirational, both in his voice n his attitude... "Always follow ur dreams" is wat he says.. hehe. i'm gonna follow wat he says. His gives good advice u noe.. anyways, gotta ciao now..
