Exhausted, I have never felt so completely washed out in my whole life. It wasn't particularly insane but the time factor is really keeping me away from everything, from doing anything I wanna do. Well, i guessed that's part of life. My first job deprived me of my own personal time, alot. Things are not at the worst right now, it might be getting worse from next week onwards cos by then, I'll have to sacrifice my weekends for work. Monday will be my only off day, provided that I have no appointment on that day. But on a brighter note, I love my job and am happy with what I am doing right now. Perhaps that's why I'm willing to part with my own personal time in exchange for this job. That's some elements in this job which I can't exactly say but I know it's something which actually make me look forward to. Anyway, my last CMFAS exam yesterday, I cleared all 3 on my first attempt!!! Woohoo!!

I was more relieved and tired yesterday than excited over the passing of my M5. That's partly because I didn't really have time for M5. A sad thing to say, Dear's grandma has passed on, on the 15th August. It was a predicted but sudden event. I attended the short wake and the crematory session and all. It was depressing and I was a little devastated over it but somehow, I managed to convince myself that she's going to somewhere better partly cos of her religion. I still feel sad when I think of how I had promised to treat her and even showed her my graduation photos 2 weeks ago but now.. Auntie was taking it quite hard and we are spending our time with her and pulling her through. Yah, anyway back to M5, that's part of the reasons why I was so tired. I had to squeeze in time after training and M5 gotta wait till late in the night, and often, I was nodding my head off while reading.

Sigh. *Feeling grieved*

Been a hell for the past 2 weeks. Super late nights, early morning work, in between tissues and coughing non-stop, this battle with the flu (for 2 weeks, 2 times to the doctor) and the books were totally insane! I was on the verge of losing but my determination managed to pull me through this "mini crisis". The duel with the time factor is really driving me nuts and the steep learning curve is pushing me to my limits. But my time and effort did bear me the "fruits-of-labour", I passed both my M9 and HI in the CMFAS, my first try! One more week to go though, M5 is coming up next Saturday. Although not as super-thick as the textbooks compared with M9 and HI, it requires much time and effort. Sulk. Both Saturdays were burnt on exam and whatever little time we had left during the weekdays after work had to be utilised wisely, and even during lunchbreaks. Our training had been intensive but of course, it bonded us. Anyway, the training has reached its peak and soon we will be having our FIT assessment in the week after M5 and upon passing the assessment, together with all the CMFAS exam, we will be heading into the next tough phase.

But for now, I have my short-term "goals" to make me look forward to. The promise to attack every single shop with Joanna and Gisele. And the class had planned alot of "after-exam, before-we-get-busy" outings. These are just some stuffs to spur me on. I've been physically and mentally strained but really, it's an achievement. I'm happy with what I am now although I would like to have more time for my friends.

Zinmar is back! Supposed to have a dinner with yy and zin but I was having a really bad flu the whole week. The doctor scolded me on my 2nd visit cos he couldn't issue me MC (I told him I can't afford to miss lessons) and I hadn't been resting at all. But anyway, that aside, I looked forward to catching up with them soon!

Update more soon, if I can. One drama episode I wanted to say. Next time then.

2007-07-28T10:15:00.000+08:00

It's been another tough week for the TPBs. But the group has been of much fun despite the boring lessons, tests, assessments and endless feedback forms.

Nothing much to update though. Besides work, colleagues, dinners and sometimes weekend shopping with bunny, I have been spending my time concentrating on the CMFAS. No social life? I'm not too sure about that. 2 Fridays had been spent on ktv-pub, ktv and pub. Had a great time!

I can't think straight now. Try having a hangover without a wink of sleep, vomiting throughout the night and you will get what I mean.

I miss my friends. I miss Yuki. I miss liberty.

2007-07-07T09:56:00.000+08:00

Things are happening too rapidly, or rather had happened and I seriously have no time to blog about them.

Ok, let's start, I am switching job aka my first job hop. *Nods* Too fast but yes, too soon but yes because I have found my desired position as a trainee personal banker in a local bank. Despite being in a local bank, it will be a great platform for me to reach my next target. Yes, it will be tough, especially the coming six months but I believe that my passion will persevere with the knowledge that this is what I am looking for since I graduated.

The past week had been physically and mentally tiring for me. Periods of highs and lows, excitement, anxiety, joyful, stressed, worried, delighted etc. The group interview, assessment test and all were happening too fast. Everything was in a whirlwind. But anyhow, the contract was signed yesterday.

Anyway, get back again, need to rush off.

2007-06-18T00:47:00.000+08:00

Did I say I receive a very unique present for passing my driving test?

A beautiful and elegant tea set.

Okay, perhaps it sounds like a weird gift but I LIKES! It's what a tea freak (me) have been wanting all along, my desired tea set!!

Thanks Darling!

Now I can enjoy a simmering cup of earl grey tea, in style. I love!

2007-06-18T00:02:00.000+08:00

Too many things happened before I can actually post. Alas, this shall be random since I think I might have forgotten most of the happenings.

A busy week indeed. Besides spending time on driving lessons and test, I have been spending my time either meeting friends, shopping for clothes or both. And of course, meeting up with my beloved occasionally when he has the time to spare. Tehee. Quite a few family gatherings as well.

Dinner with both Zin and Yy was nice but of course, it'd have been better if I could join them for Phuture. Sulk. But anyhow, it's glad to see the Emirates Lady once again and of course, to hear some dating stories and juicy updates. ;) And now that I'm typing this post, the thought of the butter fried squids we had for dinner late that night sends me salivating.

And yah, Jeremy passed his driving test one day before me! I was having two revisions that day when I met him before my lesson, before his warm-up round preceding his test. He broke the news to me while I was waiting for my second lesson and thus, I got a lunch treat from him at a nearby coffeeshop which served surprisingly very nice carrot cakes.

In retrospect, I would probably find myself a little silly for being so uptight this past week. Mr Seetho instilled confidence back into me before the driving test and the friendly interactions with a group of candidates sitting for the test somehow managed to soothen my nerves. Won't go into the details; overall, I'm just overjoyed to replace my PDL with my awaiting license now.

My long awaited appointment with my girly, we went to Fosters and Johnny couldn't recognize me. But the food there is still nice though. My appetite hasn't been good for the past week and I had a minor run. Ironically, I've been having good food. Father's Day was celebrated on Saturday. A present and a super good meal for a great Daddy!

Today was spent with my Dearie and our meeting with Janet before I went to my relative's. Another busy week ahead. Bloomberg courses tomorrow, June's Bday, CMFAS test on Wed, blah blah blah.

2007-06-14T23:54:00.000+08:00

Not a complete blog post, just a notice:

Yay! I'm officially a driver, by law, starting from today.

Will blog again soon

2007-06-10T23:36:00.000+08:00

Finally.

Finally I'm up and bouncing about again! I felt much better in the middle of last week but of course, yucky phlegm still lingers in my throat, eww.

Anyhow, this stupid flu took too long to recover and I've been leaving some important errands and stuffs undone for too long. Plus some meeting up with friends and family obligations, I've been rather busy since Wednesday. Today was spent over at my relatives' houses, quite meaningless but fun, where mahjong and entertaining the little ones kept me busy.

I'm being exploited, again. For somebody's honor's project. Tehee. Somebody. =p *Wink to somebody*

Bunny fell ill too, so abruptly, thought it was dengue fever at first but hopefully not. There were like 19 cases of dengue fever in my area already. Get well soon, Dear! I'm worried.

Driving and studying all the way till the 20th. Hopefully I can pass both, first try.

I'm sticky, tired and so wanna bathe, now.

2007-06-05T23:38:00.000+08:00

I still have a creeky voice and a totally-blocked nose.

But at least the pills are pink in colour.

Till I'm well..

2007-06-02T01:21:00.000+08:00

I have been hibernating in my own cosy nest since Wednesday. But my condition didn't reciprocate with my effort to rest, even after the visit to the one who's supposed to be kept away with an apple a day. The medicine's almost finished but still, I feel worse than before, aching all over.

Now, I sound so bad, whooping cough? Block nose? Creeky voice? Sounds sexy? Not really. No more lozenges, Strepsils? Eww, don't likes.

On a brighter note, I've made two new friends, one beside my bed, the other in my living room -- tissueboxes. Just kidding. But I'm glad to receive concerns, haa, this time, all over the world! So touched! :)

Anyhow, I think I'm too drowsy. Sleeptime, again.

2007-05-29T21:06:00.000+08:00

I feel...

lethargic, sluggish, drowsy, inactive, whiney...

I guess I'm going to fall sick. Perhaps I've been in a haste for the past few days. Driving, studying, my cousin's wedding.. blah blah blah..

But yay! I've finally cleared all my driving lessons, in the sense that I've cleared my stage 5 so that bbdc will not cancel my driving test at the end of this month. I had to squeeze in all my lessons -- all thanks to their new change in system. =.="

Great, I still have CMFAS exam to prepare. And it's driving me nuts.

Ok, I'm really too tired to continue. And I'm still sniffing.

Tissuebox time.

2007-05-24T13:24:00.000+08:00

I'm back from HK! It was a fun trip and surprisingly, I find Disneyland the most enjoyable of all although I would give a higher rating to Tokyo's Disneyland. Hmm. Perhaps I was expecting it to be a lousy experience?

Anyway, due to time constraint, I'll update later (including the photos). Will be blogging less too. This whole week, or rather, the rest of the month, will be dedicated to my CMFAS exam preparation, which is giving me hell, my driving lessons, practically almost everyday, Ping's wedding preparation (she wanna exploit me) etc etc. All in all, I still have to make time for friends and of course, little little entertainments for myself. Gee.

Can't wait for Pirates. But for now, books. Sulk.

2007-05-16T11:10:00.000+08:00

买东西、吃东西。。。

Flying away...

2007-05-12T19:04:00.000+08:00

Insane!

For the past 3 days, I woke up at the time I slept usually, would be either stoning or awe-ing at the view on Benjamin Sheares bridge at around 5 past 6 in the morning.

The conference "Pan Asia Rising Stars" Conference by Merrill Lynch was a exalted. These days, the finance sector is booming. Their budget seemed umlimited, at least to me. Deals were clinched in millions or billions, corporates were trying to impress the investors. An eye-opening experience to me.

My expected styrofoam-packet lunches were actually high class set meals in a very grand ballroom with people serving us and/or Ritz Carlton's buffet lunch. Refreshments were served like there were free. By the second day, the ladies, especially ZhenZhu was complaining about the guilt instilled in her (me too) and conversations were already on how to burn those calories. The ultimate solution was, besides exercising, to dump food we couldn't finish onto the guys' plates. Ha! My poor partner! Zhen Cong had to finish what ZZ n I could'nt.

The job? All I had to do was to do some administrative matters during the hourly intervals. ZC and I either chit-chat, lame, draw on papers, teased the security guards or coffee/tea for while waiting for the interval. Talking about security guards, they were very professional and smartly-dressed. So cool. The younger security guards, especially James, were quite friendly. We chatted all the way, exchanging experiences and talking blah to kill time.

Merrill Lynch's staffs were either very friendly or too "cool". Managed to exchange conversations with a lady called Carmen Schwender from New York and a HK stock broker. Very interesting and intellectual conversations about their work and I received very good advises from them. They were friendly but on the other hand, I was quite disturbed by some stuck-up and proud investors and corporates -- they had the "do you know you are wasting my time look" and their noses were so high up in the air! Yes, these people were either highly influential or damn rich bankers but no need to despise us -- anyway we were quite redundant, we were present just to make Merrill Lynch looked good and professional, to quote it nicely. Merrill is just too damn rich, lah.

I have an idea of what I want and do in life, a little stimulated by this conference. For now, I had to settle alot of other stuffs before I go for my job hunt.

May's Birthday last Sunday. So, Chris's house is just a walk away from mine. Duh. Michael and our uncle red and all the others were so fun. Didn't help out much in the BBQ though. But it was a nice BBQ! Good food.

Aw, food makes me... gratified yet guilty.. A jog and swim today make me feel so much better today.

Okies, a few forgotten events here and there. Update again soon!

Feel so nua now. But yay, guild war later! *Grin*

2007-05-05T08:31:00.000+08:00

Bear with me, this post might be a random one.

100 MCQs, 2 hours. The lecturer didn't even tell us the number of questions, the format of the exam(although it's quite obvious) and the duration of the exam. Ok, I shan't complain much of the 100MCQs since JM had a 200MCQs GEM paper earlier(how disgusting is that?). It wasn't the long and tough questions per se, it was the boredom and diminishing drive of continuing the MCQs even before reaching question 50. To irk me further, I had my strong distaste from surfeit with some "peculiar" habits of our fellow students. First, there's this lady sitting to the right, displaying her bare foot right in my direction. As if that wasn't enough, another guy to the diagonal left in front of me kept shaking his feet and legs intensely, like he was having an epileptic seizure. Not that I wanna be mean, I usually don't mind(unless it's somebody I know, hee) but his rubber slippers seemed to be given out an irritating squirks like it's been previously immesed in water. Plus the speed and intensity of the shaking, the amount of fat cells burnt should be equivalent to at least a 2.4km run calorie burn since he's been "working out" vigorously for the full 2 hrs in the exam hall. But anyway, it's over!

Although the holiday does appeal to me, I kinda feel that the end of exam is more of a reprieve than a relief to me. I simply detest the draggy exam period but the end of this exam(most probably) will mark another stage of my life; In other words, I have to be on the lookout now. I am kinda excited about it, I wanna embrace my new life, yet the thought of it somehow perplexed me.

On a brighter note, many many activites coming up next. I might not have the time to come online and the revamp of my blog will have to drag since I'll not be home most of the time.

I love to indulge in the hot hot steam bath after my workout everytime and that's only possible if I go to a gym. I've been jogging and swimming but no gym-ing. I finally went back to Hyatt gym yesterday but it's closing for a renovation soon. Dear and me was still wondering if we'll see Dick Lee again. Haa. And I casually joked about GI and "sense of identity and place" and of course, all from Kong (1996) article doing a cultural investigation on Dick Lee's transcultural music. Ok, no more geography.

Supper with the gang at night. The guys were talking about their future, study and trip while XiaoJing and me were detached and totally engrossed in our own world, engaged in our girly stuffs. Girls are girls, we yak and yak on for hours, occasionally tuned in to what the guys were talking about. The topic of their future, study and exam drifted off to an island getaway plan. Beach beach! Somehow, (although I shun away from the sun but I love it) I've been thinking of bikini, the warm sun, the soft sand and the clear sea recently. That would be nice, I thought.

Wei and me discuessed about the Taiwan trip and came to a final conclusion -- Taiwan trip was cancelled. I thought it was a good deal for a peak travel period like June but there's a better package in July and she prolly will be going with her friends.

Anyway, I'll be working next Wed till Fri. The JJ's mother has this event -- the Merill Lynch International Bank Conference at Ritz Carlton. So cool! Thanks guys!

XuanPing is getting married!! And suddenly my holiday is exploited by her (she used "exploited" herself, not me) cos I'll be her bridesmaid! I'm thrilled at the idea of my first bridesmaid's experience and to be exposed to firsthand experience of a wedding preparation. She said she'll be exploiting me starting from this month onwards. Ok, fair, since she gave me the liberty to choose the colour of my dress/gown. But I rejected the idea since it's her wedding and my gown should, instead, fit into her theme. However, I'm still confused by the different kind of bridesmaids -- she had 2 or 3 and I'm unsure which role I played. She did explain to me the different types but I still don't get it. Anyway, she said,"Not much difference, same work responsibilities". Haha, ok, fair enough.

Before I forgot, CONGRATS my Dear!!! You actually passed through the 15 rounds of interview! A tough competition indeed. Work hard! I'll be supporting you allll the way, with lotsa lovessss!! For now, just wait for the HK Human Resource to contact you again. I'm so proud of you. All the best!!!

Oops. Okies, I'm running late, better be off for now. Update again!

2007-04-30T16:53:00.000+08:00

Oh no, no more "geographical imagination", I've had enough already, really can't reach a hegemony in this one, no wonder the concept is contested by people. Ha! Supposed to be one of the papers which poses less threat and stress to me but somehow, I spent most of my study time on this one. I'm just relieved that it's over and luckily I spotted most or rather all questions. Phew. Seriously, dunno what the lecturers were thinking, 30 minutes per essay, 4 questions, 1 question 3-4 pages, it's like rushing for an airplane. Totally insane. And the readings for a GEM module, way way too much for a Level 1 module.

Oh yay, one more paper left! But 3 more days to it though. I shall start relaxing only after that. No, I shouldn't think. No jog. No swim. But the sun looks so great. Sulk. Can i resist the temptation? Hmm..

Back to study soon, I hope.

2007-04-21T00:58:00.000+08:00

I hereby proclaimed myself to be diagnosed with some kind of horrible emotional disease.
These days, I seem to be in a constant state of melanchony.
There is this constitutional tendency to be somewhat depressed? I don't know.

I hope this will be just a periodical morose caused by the upcoming examination; I hope. I'd rather self-enhance than to self-verify right now. See, I think I'm going bonkers with the exam. But somehow, I have a hunch that it isn't so simple -- not exam? Then what?

Hmm.. Enough babbling, go study..

Study

ZzZzz...

2007-04-12T23:48:00.000+08:00

I just realized that

my last lecture was GEK1001, Place, Environment and Society;
my last tutorial was PL3239, Industrial and Organizational Psychology;
my last lecture theatre was LT11;
my last tutorial classroom was AS6, #02-06;
my last visit to a NUS canteen was The Terrace@Biz;

if I make up my mind to graduate this semester.

2007-04-10T01:25:00.000+08:00

Begrudge me! I had a really really wonderful long weekend!

Of course, I shamefully filtered words and synonyms associated with "school" and "work". Get what I mean? Work and play just don't fit together in my dictionary. Of course, I very much want them to, especially in my future job, hopefully soon as well because exam is coming and weekends should be strictly dedicated to work and only work. Sulk.

Alright enough of work. Back to the main stream, come back all of you. My long weekend began last Thursday, since Friday is a good Friday, and it is still ongoing. *Grins* It has been some time since I really, totally and completely let/allow myself to go wild and indulge in every minute spend, be it on food, shopping, gym etc. I forgot what I did on Thursday though, but I remembered no work, only play. I shall add a tinge of guilt in that too although I sounded so high spirited.

Friday was really great too. Met up with my dear Ps, finally (I've been promising to meet up but we couldn't find a time to meet up). Of course, we had our all time favourite ktv session and as promised, S.H.E! Oh oh oh, and the Marina Square KBox outlet is superb lah! Totally different system. This new system subsumes the old one and the screen had a pretty layout, embedded with pearl-like green bubbles, displaying all the singers. Pretty cool I thought. The Kbox lunch set was generous and of a higher standard too. Mic quality checked. Sound system checked. All in all, it was (surprisingly) surpassingly good. And, they had buffet dinner package too! Never try before.

Retail therapy still works better than any lavender tea for stress relief. Paradoxically, I bought my long awaited floral tea! Not lavender, but rose buds. Smells so nice. Mmmm.. Anyway, we shopped like there's no tomorrow. Before you sentence me to shoppaholic-ing, wait, the quantity of time spent on shopping was't proportional to the amount we spent. I was/am a shopper, no -holic.

I so so so so want to try out the Donut Factory. But the queue was so drastically long and the time which took the queue to move was even longer. Hence, I lost the patience. Hmm, actually not quite, it wasn't exactly the issue of patience but we went too late. Sigh.

In retrospect, Sarturday wasn't particularly that pleasant at all. It was supposedly my Dear's free day for me (finally!). We had such a nice itinerary planned. BUT. I spent the whole day at home, with Yuki giving me that scornful expression, sneering at me as I rushed in and out of the WC. My poor tummy. On a brighter note, I got to spend the whole day doing stuffs which I usually would never include in my plan. And of course, leisure! In silkroad and C & C 3! Sometimes, it makes me wonder if I am a girl afterall, more so because of C & C but lesser of SRO (You'd be amazed how many girlfriends I made there). Fancy hooking up all these games designed to our amazing gadget -- the PC. But believe me, it was fun! And I hate to admit, SRO has become more of my MSN. Shucks, I talk too much! And oh, finally, Casino Royale! Yes, but better late than never, right?

Flexible as it seemed, Saturday's itinerary automatically shifted to Sunday. But we missed some because we started late. It was a simple and casual but "branded" shopping trip. Not for me. But for my dear bunny. And how smart Gordon looked in suit in the LV Boutique! Long time no see dude -- might explain why he took some time to recognize me. But anyway, boutiques hopping with bunny, how cliche. Heehee. I shan't go into the details. But the outcome I assured you, was a pleasure and satisfied one. It was a good buy, nice briefcase!

With all the sinful indulgence in food and all sorts of silly and out of the blue cravings, my newly-formed fat cells (fortunately) are eager to burn out. Swimming and some running last week were insufficient. I decided to hit the gym today. Thanks to Ian, I got my California Fitness Membership Card! My first experience of a commercialized workout place, such a great difference from the nature, or rather, my usual workout places. I do not consider Hyatt to be one though because the main purpose of Hyatt gym isn't similar to California Fitness and cannot be compared to Cailifornia Fitness, although to some extent, perhaps so. Anyway, it was a totally awesome experience lah! Not that I never run on treadmill with glass windows in front (no, no people watching you sweat. Not the orchard branch), not that I never use the gym often, not that it has a steam and sauna.. Not to mentioned those cos they are and should be the fundamental of a commercialized gym but the idea of a high class fitness centre, it totally made it. The whole place just seemingly portrayed an exhalted ideal, a concept so noble and lofty. Every part of the gym was like "Deluxe! Exercise in style!". 2 thumbs up. Unlike some country clubs, the changing rooms, steam/sauna and the showers were sparkling clean. Oblivious to say, Jackie Chan was everywhere; there was even a little "Jackie Chan Energy Bar" selling energy bars and juices, what an apt name. I had my workout in a refreshing and renewing way. So cool, awesome experience!

She is magnificent.

She is strikingly gorgeous.

She is dainty and exquisite.

She is of utmost nobility.

I love her, she loves the Lord.

2007-04-05T16:10:00.000+08:00

The last semester is coming to a fruition. Deadlines and assignments are coming to an end and the lectures, topics and readings are reaching their finale. Yay!

Does that call for a celebration? I'm quite bewildered though. Perhaps I'm just overwhelmed by the recent events. Since my Birthday, everything else had been a whirlwind for the past few weeks or so. I'm fatigued, cells in the body are deteriorating.

I need an extra dose of vitamin P (P for Play). Hopefully, that helps.

2007-03-30T15:55:00.000+08:00

The art of procrastination:

You will still be doing something so as to defer what you supposedly should do.

I can hear the meow meow outside my door, I can hear the rhythms of the rain, I can envisage the satisfaction on my face after watching "The Devil wears Prada".. So many minor and insignificant distractions which I can disregard but somehow they just escaped unfiltered into my processing system.

I can't feign ignorance that I am totally not in the mood to study. I can't shove myself to face the book.. I couldn't even bear the thought of working on my Geo term paper literally. But still, things need to be done, deadlines still need to be met. How bad is that?

I am now procrastinating even as I typed...

2007-03-30T02:59:00.000+08:00

It is really amazing how small little incidents can trigger metacognition and instigate an opinionated person to alter his/her philosophy of life.

The ups and downs, the twists and turns.. Life is like a roller coaster *Not quoting Ronan Keating* The next twist or turn may send you wandering off in a different direction; You may drift from your original path, turn back for a second glance or perhaps, you will be fortified such that there will be alterations in your perspectives while you continue your route. Oblivious to say, it's beyond human intelligence to predict life, much less to make the right decision. Philosophy of life? Simply put, it's just an uncertain prediction about life. How many would choose uncertainty over stability in their lives?

I've seen so many who were thrown off their seats in the coaster ride, searching for a new direction in their lives. Admiration, reverence, disappointment, rejection, dejections, achievements.. I've run out of superlatives to describe how I feel each time I came across friends whom I once thought were so determined and opinionated would change their course in life so readily and confidently to pursue what they seek to achieve. To satisfy their soul, to accomplish their dreams, be it internal or external satisfaction, I salut them simply because it takes courage to dare the first step. How many would take action upon the epiphany of that moment in life? How would you know if that epiphany might just be a momentous feeling? How would you know if the numerous thoughts and considerations that you've done would substantiate for the precision and appropriateness of your ultimate decision? Nobody knows and precisely, that is what makes it so venerating, at least to me.

I am kinda inspirated to reach out for what I craved for all these years but somehow, I am still entrenched in my own crisis. There are simply too many domains to consider. Hmm..

Whoever set me thinking in this way, he's gone to pursue his dream or rather, to end his pretty long hiatus, in his words. His ability to view life in a totally different array amazed me. I've learnt alot from him.

Turmoils of life? It really depends on your perception.

2007-03-30T01:36:00.000+08:00

It's astonishing for one to realize how the obdurate self kicked in and transformation took place to create a brunt of force which I myself labelled as motivation, in a nicer term. Motivation to stop blogging (especially), and now, to start blogging again.

It might seemed like a profanation, a blasphemous behaviour. Nonetheless, I understood why it all happened. I felt justified for my own behaviour, no explanations whatsoever; I still feel this way now but in a totally renewed way.

Well, this time round, no obligations, no promises, no nothing.

Welcome back, Jean.

2006-08-16T10:13:00.000+08:00

Morning guys!

Finally, I've got time to blog. Surprisingly, my sleeping cycle went back to normal instantly after I started working at G-star but however high my mood was, the word "sleepy" still wouldn't go off from my forehead; People will just "Eh, u got not enough sleep huh?" to me. True physically but not mentally. I'm getting the hang of sleeping late and waking up early. Most of the time, work ended late you see. Even if it ended earlier (which is not any earlier, trust me), I'd sleep even later; Cos I'd rather spend my time catching up on my tv shows or doing my stuffs. Hee.

Okie, I had a busy but fruitful time spent at work, not to mention the inflexible shifts and the pathetic wages lah. And probably, the freezing environment. COLD ~

School's started yesterday for me and I'm still slotting in worktime in between and my free day will be dedicated to work. Perhaps, the weekends too. Sulk.

Luckily, Bunny's nice enough to give his utmost understanding to my tight schedule and he'll fit himself into the schedule whenever he can but anyway, I think he'll probably be busy soon considering the modules he's taking this sem. Poor baby.

Ok, anyway, I'll be busy. Busy busy busy...

*Too busy to complete the post*

First of many posts to come^^

2006-08-09T14:52:00.000+08:00

Hi~~ Been some time since Jean last had a post so I thought I'd help her update all her friends! It's her first day at work at G*Star Jeans today(dunno if I spelt it right)! It seems a bit late to start working but she was busy taking special sem modules during the holidays. Anyway, she'll be working at the outlet in Wisma/CK Tang for the next few weeks so drop by if you can^^

Dun blame Jean for not blogging for this holidays has been jam packed for her ! Shopping, going out, clubbing, mahjong, modules, tv, SRO etc... Not to mention exercising! When Jean said " I wanna run every alternate day" I thought she was joking! But.... u know her.

No photos for this blog but i'll post the photos for her birthday, hong kong trip and whatever other interesting(and long overdue) photos. SO hang in there !

2006-06-26T14:37:00.000+08:00

I admit I am lazy to blog. I'd rather sleep or nua (laze around). I'm really tired, physically drained.

Anyway this entry includes only a little update about me. I still can't seem to post pics. Argh!

First, don't whine about me not blogging lah. Heh. I've been losing out on the average sleep hours a person should have leh. Erm, I mean what a normal person should have. I'm still a person alright. Anyway, my weird sleep cycle started long long ago. But, maybe ever since last week, it's totally turned over (I sleep in the morning). Well, let's see..

1. Chalet
- I think I was practically like a walking zombie. Those laughs and craps the whole night is just so tiring. To think I could still drive around (although I mount kerb like 2 times?) in BBDC that day. I didn't sleep until the next night.

2. Driving
- Although I seemed busy with driving lessons for the past few weeks, this week's the most relaxing. Heh. Cos I've completed everything except my FT and stimulator lesson. I've terminated all my lessons until I book my test date.

3. Shopping
- I can't exactly remember the number of days I'd spent on retail therapy. But I think alot, alot and alot. With Jeremy, bunny, Cin etc.. I think I need to work - killing 2 birds with 1 stone - I'll have no time to shop BUT more cash. Heh. Oh, I think shopping contributes to my tiredness lately. Haa.

4. Worldcup
- My bunny and my bro are crazy about it. I've been sleeping at around 3-4am even before the Worldcup and now that the Worldcup has started, I've been sleeping at around 5, earliest 4. Of course, I'm not as fanatic as them. Occasionally, I'll do other stuffs while they're tuned in to that channel.
- Just this week alone, the guys in the gang have been coming over to my house for WC until 5am. And they supper for at least 2 times in the night. Haa. I tagged along for the fun of it although it's already bedtime. Yawnz.
- The ultimate falls on Sat. The night which I nv sleep until dawn. We all stayed over at Bunny's and siao until morning before Ivan sent mi home (cos Bunny's sick - poor thing) with 2 knocked out passengers in his car and another 4 in JH's car. Lol.
- Eskibar with WC promotion too. We freezed with the free beers given to all of us when there's a goal. Cool place, must check it out! And I mean real COOL~!
- Even Joel's and Joey's Bdays are spent in Amara Hotel Room WC-ing! Lolx. But we had fun with the Monopoly as well.

5. Mahjong
- Comes together as a package with WC. It's an impromptu decision everytime when they WC-ed. Fri and Sat without fail, ended with mj-ing after the WC.

Now you get me? I've been losing my sleep for days with the never-ending activities.

Oh no, I'm becoming like Tare Panda. Eye mask anyone?

2006-06-04T12:42:00.000+08:00

Like what is the problem? When I wanted to sit down comfortably and blog (with photos) about everything that has happened to me so far, I couldn't find those SD cards and/or if I really am gonna find them later, my USB will be spoilt?

No choice then. All the HK's stuffs and those outdated photos gotta wait, again. Sigh.

Anyway, I'm feeling pretty upset these few days. Not mentally of course, I'm happy as can be (erm, maybe no, when u reach the part about my mum). It's my tummy. My tummy's been upset ever since my food poisoning (or intestine infections by some foreign bacteria, as the HK doctors called it) in HK. I'm still on the "diarrhoea period" even until yesterday and it'd not been better even till now. Sigh. My mum wasn't making things any better. She's been carrying out her "spoiling-my-everyday-mood" routine without fail. Seriously speaking, it's getting on my nerves, just that I knew nothing good will come out of it even if I do anything about it. Even as I talked about it now, it spoilt my mood. Filthy. Yucks. Whatever.

To sum it all, I'd been hanging out ever since I came back from HK. Driving lessons, tuition, movies, dinners, online games, jogging, VCDs-ing etc. See, all except SHOPPING. Jean has been a good gurl afterall! Lol.

Ok lah, my diarrhoea's 呼唤-ing me to my toilet again. Blog again soon. Hope I can find those SD cards asap.

2006-05-25T09:11:00.000+08:00

There's something wrong with my com's USB, I can't upload photos. Hmm.. Better settle that soon.

I'm on runner's high again, especially these few days. Yy came to my house for a run on Tues and I went Hyatt gym yesterday. It's been quite sometime since I last enjoyed the hot steam, jet spa and chilling out/tanning at the poolside at Hyatt. Anyway, I broke my 5km record. I ran 7km non-stop. I don't really know why the sudden running crave. But looks like I'm keeping my alternate day working out schedule quite well. Heh.

Oh yah, how could I totally forgot to mention our clubbing night. Lolx. I had fun man! There's always fun with u gers ard although it's supposed to be "the more the merrier" that night but with just the 2 of u ard, we're already laughing non-stop. My first liquid room experience! I'm glad I got the liquid room card, free entrance! Looking back, I've been clubbing much more nowadays. Except for the "occasional" hangover and deafness, I enjoyed clubbing nonetheless. And know what Dear, I'm really happy to know that you are so magnanimous and I feel so comfy telling you all my clubbing stories throughout all these clubbing months. Thanks Dear. I love you.

Ok folks, I'm flying to HK tomorrow. Till then guys.

2006-05-19T12:23:00.000+08:00

HaPpY 1 YeAr 5 MtHs mY dEaRiE!!!

Another lovely month has passed!! Our love has blossomed!!

My Dear brought me to Marriot Hotel for the great buffet dinner yesterday. Oh no, I can feel the effort of all the runs and swims going down the drain! Haa.

Nevertheless, it was a really really great buffet. Actually wanted to skip this for other cheaper dinner cos we're going there with Yy soon but.. Heh. Anyway, there's discount for UOB platinum so..

Forgot to bring camera along so my W800i did the work..

The seafood were superb! All fresh and big!

Very lovely and yummy pastries! No doubts, they tasted as good as they looked!

We shall go there some other time for high tea soon! The high tea is much more worthy cos we didn't really go for the meals; We were spoilt for choices with the pastries and the seafood, which were all included in the high tea menu at a cheaper price.

Perhaps after my Hong Kong trip then. I'm flying to HK next Friday. It shall be fun! Woohoo~ Can't wait!

Going to gym later to work out what I'd eaten yesterday. With all the yummy food I'd eaten yesterday, at least 5k of running for me. Sigh. Haa.

I had so much plays everyday. I think I'm going broke. Lol.

2006-05-16T02:17:00.000+08:00

I so wanna blog about the great weekend but my bro's opening his stall on my laptop so well, I can't upload the photos to my lappy and to this problematic desktop; Thus, I will update the photos sometime later.

Well, in case you are wondering what's with the freaking setting up stall thingy, it's about Silkroad Online, the addictive game which I'm currently hooked up with. My character as of today..

I just realized I'd taken quite a number of pictures ever since I was of a lower level. I'll just post it up when I can find the time to. Haa.

To think I played this game for the whole of today. I'm not a no-life person mind you, I love shopping too (just like any other gers, perhaps), just that my driving lesson is in the night and it would be silly of me to make myself hectic in the day and thus exhausted in the night.

Driving's fun, at least for today. Although I thought I was quite anxious about "crusing" at 70km/h at my mere 2nd lesson, it turned out fine. I hope the instructors will all be nice and friendly, like what they were. My dear bunny was helping me with all the bookings of the theory lessons, practical and all. At this rate, I think you guys won't be surprise to find me with my license in probably 3 months time? That's if I'm really good and if I continue to proceed at this rate lah. I'm having theory and practical lessons packed for tomorrow. I feel like I'm taking a module or what. Ha.

Anyway, I had my dinper (dinner cum supper) at Geylang after my driving at around 11pm, with Joel and Guan. Very last minute though. Haa. I love the frog porridge. Yummy! Gotta watch diet though and I'm trying to control and lose the excess by keeping up with my alternate-day run. They're gonna be down with sore throat as well, at least for Guan. Lol. Cos we KBox-ed yesterday night with the gang.

Adoi, I think I'm getting my late night sleep routine all over again.

2006-05-09T15:09:00.000+08:00

Can you imagine a holiday in NUS Central Library??

Well, I am at NUS Central Lib now. Cos my bunny started his Sem 3 class. Me? Cos I was over at BBDC registering and applying for my PDL (provisional driving license) so I just followed bunny wherever he goes. Here I am.

I'm gonna start my driving sessions soon. In fact, very soon cos I'd already got my PDL. I just have to reg online for my timing and all. I was quite slow indeed; I just realized I passed my basic like 2 years ago?! Haa.

Anyway,

HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY to Cai Ling!!!

She's my primary school friend, secondary school friend.. till now.. Long long old friend!! I still remember those days we did our projects and how we spent those fun-loving times over at her house!! Haa.. Have a great 21st gurl!

So, June came up with the idea of a mini surprise party for her over at house and the guys were so unusally onz. So unlike them. The whole of Sunday was spent at June's helping her with some stuffs (altho nv really helped much lah).

*borrowed pic from vio's blog*

Nickie was sOoOo cute!! She still remembered me! Always rolling over for more strokes! She was not very kind to Jr though. Strange huh? She likes women but detest men. It's probably gotta do with her heartbroken relationship with men. Haa. Male dogs I mean.

So here goes the lovely-created frame and us!

Afterwhich, we (the gurls, Cc and Jr) went to KBox!! Very fun indeed. I think I laughed more than I sang. High ktv-ing the whole night. I had a great time!

2006-05-06T09:39:00.000+08:00

Exams' finally over! I dunno if that's a good thing but at least it is for now cos I really need a break from all the stressors. So, YAY!

I had been issue a warning letter by someone to blog. 2 words also she happy so here I am. Are u happy? Haa. She must be overjoyed now then. It's >2 words. Anyway, my idea is that I wanna change my blog skin before I blog but to no avail, I can't find the ideal blogskin that I really want. =( So in the meantime, bear with this blogskin. I'll update more often.

It was quite a busy and tired day for me yesterday.

Dental appt right after exam to collect my night-wear retainers (although I already had a fixed one). Dr Chng's kind enough to ask me to participate in a study in which I had to help him in a survey by doing a questionnaire and on top of that, a free and big Oral B Dental Package. =D

KLunch with my bunny after that. Then, track and gym with Junhao and Joel. Nothing much actually, just that I feel exahausted now. It was a thorough workout and for me, of course runnning.

NUH after. Bad news. Granny was admitted to NUH cos her gall stones creating problems for her again. =( She seemed quite bad to me to have undergo all that sufferings. Initially a surgery was planned to crush the gall stones (cos she was to old to undergo surgeries to remove the whole thing) but her body showed heightened signs of antibodies rejection so I guessed the doctor gave her a tranquilizer to keep her down and the surgery had to be delayed. She looked so drowsy. Heartache.

Met up with the guys and all of us went to Alexandra for dinner. Got intro-ed to Lixing, Honghan's gf, dentist-to-be gf. She was waiting for her interview result for NUS Dentistry Entry. Bright girl, I hope she got in. Then, I can have my wisdom tooth removed without paying! Muahahaha..

Okie, lastly, I had my holis sort of planned by my bunny.

1) My contemplation of getting a driving license. Hmm. My bunny's gonna enrolled me.

2) Hong Kong trip with the gang.

In the short term, it would be just these 2 for those big big events.

2006-03-30T21:08:00.000+08:00

2006-02-28T23:02:00.000+08:00

Oh gosh! Yah it's a lit' gross but yah, I'd been on tissues and panadol flu pills (non-drowsy formula) ever since sat! Finally I'm up and well today. I hope the flu bug will not come back again!

Probably it's due to all the late nights and deadlines of reports, quiz and tests. What a mid term break! Give me a real break! I'd been camping at home for the 4 days just to finish 2 reports. It's so damn gross ok. I haven't been at home for that long ever since dunno when. To think I never went out for so many days!

Anyway, the late nights started even before the mid term break and ever since I went clubbing at dbl O. It was sort of a gathering for Xc's Bday. I can't find my W800i wire so the photos gotta wait, didn't take a lot anyway cos my phone's memory's low and it was slow. It was fun nevertheless!

The week following dbl O, it was MOS. Haa. Suddenly so clubbing life for me. LoLx. It was dear Zinmar or shall I say Princessy Zinmar's Birthday?!! Yup. Cos her theme was really very princessy! So cliche! Tiara and bling bling.

If you guys forgot what a tiara is, here's one example. Haa. But my Snowie's not on any bling bling though.

The Birthday Girl, Zinmar, with the tiara that her frens made for her. So sweet!

Zinmar, Yy and Me. In MOS toilet. The toilet's so nice that we couldn't resist taking photos in them. Haa. We were in black simultaneously!With out tiaras on as well. Black is not a theme though.

All of us. Still in the toilet. Haa.

Me and Yy. And tt's my hand-ings, not my leggings. Haa. Cos I was telling Yy i wanted a pair of leggings and she thought I mistakably bought a hand-ings.

Dear and me! I like this photo. Hee. Anyway, this is the retro room. Quite nicely decorated, with all sorts of cosy chairs, just like this one.

The Yy-Korean-idol-look-alike photo background. Haa. Sorry lah, I forgot (or dunno?) his name.

If I'm not wrong, Chanel, Zin, Linda (aka Yy 2), me and Yy(1). Haa. And I suddenly remember the pure white room. We couldn't enter now cos they recently restricted the entrance criteria to age 25. Boo.

Back in the Retro room again. This time, on another cosy seat, apparently dangling from the ceiling.

Yup, it's the same seat. But just imagine this whole round seat is attached to the ceiling.

I like my tiara! See, I'm pointing to it. Haa..

Ok, I thought I was getting high or what.

Me and my kaki! Always so loving right? Haa.

The girls, in the R&B dancing cage. It was really crowded.

I think we were dancing halfway or what lah. Dunno leh.

Zin, Yy and me on the dance floor. And Yy's guy fren in the background. Haa.

Us again. This time, 2 guys making faces. I think got 3, 1 behind Yy.
And yah, I had puffy eyes that day, due to over-exertion of tear glands tt aftnoon.

Anyway, I had a fun time clubbing! And yah, it's sort of like the first time I clubbed with Dear. Abit strange though. Haa. But it's still ok!

That's all for now. Erm, if you guys want the photos, I'll send all to you some day k? I lazy to upload all onto this blog.

2006-02-25T12:47:00.000+08:00

I was in a quite terrible mood that day. I dunno if it was a fault at all for not telling or announcing how my much my dear Andrew means to me. Probably it was my fault. But to me, relationship is something I shld be proud of, and definitely, I am proud of Andrew, not because I'm biased towards him, just that I seriously felt so. However, I feel that it is the genuine feelings among us that's crucial, not how I put all these feelings into words for announcement so that people know. Probably some just think I am not bothered by it at all, that's why they never care as much about what they say. But I do, I seriously do and I'm proud of my dear Andrew for being so magnanimous.

He will do anything and everything for me, without any 埋怨. He's always there for me. His feelings are actually a magnified version of my own. When I'm 100% happy, he's 200% overjoyed and when I'm 100% upset, he's 300% down. 300% meaning he'll always be so generous to share more of my woes than my happiness. His matured and logical thinking didn't actually put me in a biased position, his words simply set me thinking, guiding me with his advise and leaving me to make the final decision of everything myself, at the same time making sure he's not the one influencing me. He respected how I feel and we always try not influence each other's point of view. His sacrifices for me are so clear that I thought everyone can visualize. I simply love him so much and the truth is I felt guilty cos for all that he had done for me, I still want him to please everybody else. That's just plain selfish of me, really, even to the extent of changing or curbing his own character. I'm truly sorry dear. I know it's been hard on you.

I'm really sorry.

2006-02-12T11:49:00.000+08:00

Photos, photos and photos. This shall be a photoblog! I'd spent a long time uploading all the photos, mind you. Henceforth, I think I shall type less.

First, my Superband thingy. I didn't know so many ppl knew about it, those who read my blog or heard from frens, frens' fren etc. Anyway, Thanks guys for ur support! But I doubt we'll get into the next round cos we screwed it up that day and there were simply too many great bands that day, especially those who composed their music pieces themselves.

Anyway, if u guys are interested, the results will be announced at Plaza Singapura on the 19th Feb at 2pm.

Ok, enough of that. Some outdated events.

Andrew's mum's birthday celebration in January!

Steamboat at Andrew's during Chinese New Year's week! YY and my idea of having steamboat. We were craving for it so much that we wanted to steamboat in the lec halls. Haa.

Anyway, Andrew's mum bought this utensils set specially for that day.

We were hungry by the time we ended school cos we starved ourselves the whole day just for this meal!

All ready to start!

Our small steamboat group!

Great and fun!

Star of the day! Yuki with his 龙袍, Chinese New Year clothes.

I believed Zinmar's and YY's hp were full of Yuki's and their shots that day.

Haa. You should take a look at their MSN display photos. It's all about different poses of Yuki and them.

I tot Yuki looked quite cute in this photo! Looks like he's bai nian-ing.

Finally, I had the chance to pose with Yuki! Haa. I guessed he was tired from all those photo taking sessions.

That's about all for the New Year Period. Here comes 11th Feb!! 2 of my frens' 21st Birthday!

Yay! All prepared to go shopping b4 gg for the 2 parties!

Anyway, I was supposed to be in blue top and white bottom for Mei Wei's party. Her theme is SMURF, the cartoon character but since I can't find any blue top, I'm inverted Smurf!

Evening time!

Fish & Co. at glass house celebrating Honghan's birthday.

The presents. Erm, I have no idea how to show the unpresents.

Alamak. Blink eyes.

The birthday boy and us! What a radiant smile!

His Part I present. It was quite rush searching for his present but anyway his present was quite a big one.

Part I: Braun Buffel wallet. Erm, the packing looked like chocolate to me.

Similarly, we starved ourselves the whole day for this meal. I supposed that explains for the huge bare-teeth smile when the food arrived.

Those sitting opposite us. Adoi, stop eating for awhile and pose for a photo oso cannot meh?

The situation was no better at the other end of the table.

Oops, I hope Jie Ying won't blame me if she came across this pic.

Huge-mouth monster of the day. The prawn king.

People see, people do. Joey wanted to do the same thing to his sambal fish head.

After dinner, cake time! Fish & Co. has a special way to celebrate ur birthday. The waitress instructed Honghan to stand on a chair with a fire sparkle! In the meantime, we had to sing a song for him while the whole restaurant stared at him. Haa!

After which, he was asked to blow his candles from where he was standing without bending. Of course, he cheated.

Happy 21st Birthday Honghan!

Some of the guys, with Joey being the extra!

All of us!

His part II prezzie!

Guess what? Yup, it's a Guess jacket!

The cake-cutters and servers, it's always the 2 of us. (-.-:)

That day Ivan's Birhtday at his house, we were also the cake-cutters. Not fair.

Finally, went over to Mei Wei's at CDANS chalet. Pei Hong and me. She was still as hilarious as before.

Yihua and us. My old Welfare head. Haa.

Happy 21st Birthday Mei Wei!!! Best wishes for you!!

Spot the abnormal person in the group. Haa. It's Meiling's idea.

Spot the normal one. Haha.

The Carpet minus one. 2 Smurfs and 1 inverted Smurf.

My "everything" kaki, not car key lah. Haa. And Yy, now u know why mangos were blind right? Super lame.

Carpet photo no.1 with the eldest of all on the right.

Carpet photo no.2! Nice pic!

Anyway, quite a number of people left when I reached. And Meiwei, I want the whole group photo and that of Wai Leong's birthday.

K lah, that's all of what I have although I nv uploaded all or else I won't be able to finish uploading. I think I miss out Ivan's birthday photos too and quite a no of events. Alamak. Anyway, that's all for now!

2006-02-07T10:22:00.000+08:00

Wanted to upload more pictures but I think my internet's got some problem. I managed to upload only one. There..

Anyway didn't take lotsa photos this CNY too. Busy black jack-ing. Haa.. It seemed like this year's much more dull over at my relatives', more fun with frens. I'll wait for the photos to be uploaded next time then.

Yup, as I've said previously, I was kept busy Black Jack-ing and In Between. Mind you, not just once or twice but throughout the whole of last weekend. Been to Kelvin's beautiful condo with my brother and it was really a good game with such a big bunch of people, all clustered around the nicely decorated table, making silly comments like a bunch of drunkards. We played until like 3 plus before heading home. The following day, Andrew and me went to Joel's and Joey's place to 拜年 as well. As usual, Black Jack and In Between throughout the whole afternoon till evening.

I was quite tired physically even until today. Had been having late nights and out for the whole week since my parents were not around. Steamboat lah, pool lah etc etc. Hmm.. I shan't post too much lah, cos seriously, I'm tired, dun really know what I'm typing. I'll post again with all the details soon, but probably after Friday, after my quiz. Have to start studying!

2006-01-15T09:35:00.000+08:00

Saturday was indeed a tiring day. I guessed I was too hyper and this hyper-activeness lasted for the whole day and night. A moment of fickle-mindedness, nervousness, fear, excitement and who knows whatsoever and in addition, I woke up at 6.30am when I had been having late nights the whole week.

We had decided to sleep in and not to join the Superband if it rained. Initially, I wasn't too keen to join as well. Half hoping that 天不作美 (it would pour), to my astonishment, despite the rainy season, it was a clear and beautiful sunny day!

Ok, everything starts from here..

Waiting for our turn to peorform on stage. I had quite a heart thromping session sitting there. Some participants were good and it sort of added stress to us. Furthermore, previous groups which sang without music were all being rejected. So scary!

The 3 PRCs beside ps (the yawning guy and the 2 gers) didn't help too. They rehearsed their song and surprisingly, they sang really well. And you know what? Worst of all, they had to perform just before us. Damn.

A crazy moment. We even thought of slipping away when it was about to be our turn. Luckily, we called a stop to all those nonsense and we managed to calm ourselves down.

Stunning faces of ps and mi. I think we saw a marvellous group or what. Probably a CMI (cannot make it) group?

Oh no!! Our turn next! Heart rate fastened, cold palms and feet. I guessed Xc was smiling so happily because we were trying to crack a joke while Ps was trying to calm herself down.

I was quite relieved that we could request for mic stand. It made us looked more spread out and of course, we didn't have to hold the mic during the whole tensed up moment. I was abit jittery too and I think I didn't give a superb intro but luckily, it turned out ok overall.

Our performance! Did record a video of it too. All thanks to Dear who pon his lec and came down to support! U r so sweet!

Anyway, the judges were quite pleased with our performance (although tune abit off somewhere).

Luckily we observed and analysed the judges before we went on stage. By guessing what they disliked and what they looked for plus noticing the most influential judge(a she) whom we worked on ultimately, we had a really good idea of what they looked for. We smiled, we maintained eye contact and of course, we suppressed our fears and displayed confidence (although this probably can be improved further).

Judges comment and question: 虽然有些部分有一点走音，但是整个感觉还不错。服装也蛮搭的。你们是好朋友吗？

We: *nods* and 是！
(Duh, cannot say 不是 what. But probably we made it a point to look at each other for coordination that's why she asked)

Thus, we waited for the music which will determine the result.
I could only say we were stunned, shocked, surprised, excited..

We thanked the judges while we were still in shock and left the stage. Guided by crews, we filled up some form and listened to some instructions before we were asked to pose for a photo and an interview by Berlinda. Oh no, we never thought that far and we were not prepared. Not at all!

I think I made some grammatical errors and anyhow answered qns cos I was still quite stunned. We were asked to exclaim our group name out loud and clear for the camera in the end.

Alot of rock bands joined and entered too. Some were really good and one of them had the voice of Shin! Next round would be real tough. Not hoping for anything but will just do our best bah. Anyway, the experience was really fulfilling and rich.

While Xc had to leave for work, ps had to waited for time to pass for her lesson. So, we went to Billy Bombers.

Cheers!

Thanks to my Dear too and of course, the guys(although Joel said he'll definitely comedown to support but he nv)! Yy too, thx ger for being so supportive! =)

Now, it would be a brainstorming session till next week. Sigh. Any ideas?

Will update again.

2006-01-10T01:02:00.000+08:00

First Day of School!! I had 2 lectures today. So far so good lah. However, I guessed I'm still in holis mood. To further enhance this cheery mood of mine, I went to S.H.E's autograph session at Marina Square!

Oh my goodness! Look at the number of people at the atrium.. That's not all, the queue extended beyond the atrium, out in the open! Ps n mi went late so of course, we stood outside lor..

Gong Si Jia, our new local singer. Didn't really see her though. You must be wondering who took this photo. Thanks to Joey and Joel who went there last min with us.

Marina Square's better stage. At least we got a glimpse of S.H.E on stage. They sang Live on stage!

While all these were happening, we were actually cutting queue. Yes, I'm guilty to say that but since we were far too behind in the queue, we were really afraid of missing their autograph. Joel they all found a loophole somewhere to the front. Fortunately, Lady Luck was on our side, we managed to squeeze into the queue without ppl noticing. Haa. Sorry lah, I noe it's quite bad.

Too bad we only got to hear them Live, didn't get to see them sing Live. Thanks to Joey for all these photos.

However, all the photos didn't really turn out well despite the 6.0MP anti-shake camera. Grr, all Joey's fault! Haa.

S.H.E posing with their fans. I'm sad to say most of the photos were their back views.

S.H.E signing their debut album, 不想长大!! Dear went to buy one more album just to accompany mi and to help us lead the way (aka squeezing). So sweet~

Joey & Joel were saying Selinna's plump but I don't believe it. Close examination of the photos showed that however. Probably abit but who cares? Instead, I felt that she's slimmed down abit. Anyway, Selina's very pretty!! Really. Anyway, both of them like Hebe best.

Mi? I preferred Selina, probably all along I like her too. Heh. But all of us think Hebe's good looking too lah but ps thought she's not tt nice in person. Actually Ella's not bad too. Aiya, I luv all lah. Haa. I can't help lah, S.H.E's my Fav!

Look at this!! They do shake hands!! So excited, first time gg c them! And can shake hands!! Unlike F4 autograph session, no contacts at all.

Try spotting us?

Oh yah, that ushering guy was really fierce. I had to cling on for Ps's dear hands and life.

Finally my turn to shake Selina's hands!!! Selina's and Hebe's smiles were abit fake though. Probably they were tired. Ella's smile was big and cheery! And when I said Thank You, she gave mi a huge smile again!

Finally, it's over! Us posing with the album. And yah, it's kinda funny when Joel n Joey wanted to act like security guards and asked mi to pose as Selina gg to toilet. LoLx. Tt's really funny!

After which, we went to the guys' house for dinner. Their grandma miss Andrew and my presence! Haha.

Homecooked food. Not bad.

Alright, our hard work paid off! And my main purpose/wish was fulfilled! I really wanna see them in real face to face.

Thanks to Dear for making it happened -- be it on time (for fetching us), accompany mi que and throughout the whole session!

Thanks alot for Joe-l/-y's help too! Without them, it's gonna be hard!

2006-01-08T12:56:00.000+08:00

My last week of holidays!!

Well, I vowed to play till I drop before school officially starts. And I did, until I really lost track of which event came before the next. Ktv lah, cycling lah, pool lah, bars lah, chilling out lah, gym lah, supper lah, hanging out everywhere and anywhere! I just wanna forget all my woes and party!

Anyway, these photos might help in recalling what I did for this week although these weren't all of the photos and some of the activities were photo-less. Haa. Here goes:

Didn capture photos during ktv session. Sending ps home after that while we waited for Dear's frens to get ready for cycling. Here's Dear and Joey.

Joey and Joel. Dunno y, we seemed to be seeing each other more often nowadays. Probably we're becoming as sporty as them? I dun mind though.

Mi and ps. This supposedly "lazy" ger got persuaded by the guys to go cycling in the end. So last min thing but they still managed to ask her along. I had no idea how they did it. Haa.

Didn have much photos during cycling and blading. This is one of the fews after the event. Ching Guan and Joey.

Joey and mi. His stupid face? He explained taking photos wif mi must pull a sulk face cos someone will scold him. Haa. Rubbish!

Joel and Ching Guan. With the ah beng look. Probably they should try harder. Haa.

All of us at Alexandra having a nice and popular BBQ meal. You shld c the no. of ppl there.
Front row: Joey, Andrew, Mi and ps.
Back row: Joel, Ching Guan, Zhen Hao, Hong Han and his cousin.

Quite a good recommendation though. The food's nice!

Surprisingly, Avocado drink's available! But I still prefer VienThai's Avocado Snow, very very nice! But of course, money wise, this is not bad too!

Yes, I was saying dunno y nowadays always see them. Regular patrons of their house already. Now? Even Yuki. LoLx.

Was joking how their grandma recognized us. Here's her grandma's Black Glutinous Rice Dessert.

My Favourite corner of their house. With a touch of ancient antiques.

Another day after gym session I guessed. Yup, and we went to Mt Faber cos we wanted to see the tallest Xmas tree again. Joel's wif his Mini Cooper?

Nice right? I thought it was a pretty good idea to come up with this idea of an artificial Xmas tree. It's our second time seeing this tree.

Them. With the artificial Xmas tree.

We came by this posh place on top called The Jewel Box. Mi and Dear brought them to take a look at the Altivo Bar where we frequent. A very very nice place for chilling out. Nice view, nice atmosphere, nice drinks.

We managed to get in despite the "Smart Casual" dress code sign at the entrance. We were casual but definitely not smartly dressed! Haa. Ok, not for Dear but us cos all 3 of us were wearing shorts.

The mini waterfall in there.

I thought the straw in this pic was cute. Anyway, we ordered cocktails. They served quite a number of alcoholic drinks and this was the common one in all bars. Margarita.

The other side of the bar.

Our sofa seat was facing Sentosa. Really nice. Behind us were the blue enclosed air conditioner lounge. Ours -- outdoor in the open! Joel's request of this cross-hand pic.

They did the same too although Ching Guan was unwilling to do so with Joel. Aww, so sad.

Yes, on the right of Ching Guan's opened and it's facing Sentosa.

Us. Again.

They have these nice seats and cushions too. Cute right?

Another one.

U can bring your other half to share with u too. Cosy! Haa. Or what hokkien says "kue xio"!

We presumed Joel's drunk cos he wanted to pose for the same pic. Haha.

I thought this photo was quite nice.

Anyway, this tourist's shop is well decorated too and I found this pinkish corner with tiny sofa sets for kids. Cool right?

The blu-ish entrance. The newly renovated entrance. The whole feeling just goes Wow!

To the right is the air-conditioned lounge.

Candid but nice? Haa. Stairway to the Altivo Bar. Too bad Joey's gone dating cos he really missed out alot.

Oh, this is another day after gym. In Hyatt hotel's lobby.

Nice decor. With nice ppl in the photo. Muahaha.

Dear and Joel. Waiting for Joey to intro his date. Haa.

Shijia and Joey. We went for a nice dinner in Chinatown after that. A place which we ate very very nice Xiao Long Bao and those Beijing's food. My recommendation. Too bad we didn bring camera along.

Anyway, that's all for now. Too many photos for mi to post. I'm being super selective already. The good thing is I felt better after yesterday's. Thanks. (^_^)

School's gonna start soon. Shall tune down my play already. Chinese New Yr's coming too. Shall cut down my food intake. Haa. Dad and Mum gg to Hokkaido, without mi. What to do? Gotta study. Sigh. I miss Japan!!!!! Gonna save up for a trip there, I dun care!

2005-12-31T10:57:00.000+08:00

Introduction: Marina Sqaure KBox (New KBox Outlet)

The sound system was superb, worked even in small rooms! Anyway, their smallest room wasn't that small, as least not in comparison to Clementi's and Jurong East's.

Nicely decorated and looked at this...

Still can't figure out what I'm trying to say? Take a look at the second picture then.

I'm sitting next to the escalator! Don't worry, I've checked it out, it's a one-way mirror, meaning you can see ppl out there but not vice versa. Cool right? Nice room really.

And what really got me excited was their frequently and speedy updated songs. Especially when I saw..

S.H.E's "SuperModel" on tv!

And of course, not missing out their main hit from their new debut album!

Ok lah, you can say me slow lah. I had my first Carl's Jr meal at Marina Square. It's abit sinful lah, I know. But considering how long I've not engage in a fast food indulgence and all that exercises, spare mi off k? Haa. Anyway, I don't want to try it when it's 10 years later. Bleh.

Alright, I guessed I still feel a "slight sin" afterall. But take a look at that!

One thing for sure, I've not regretted! Cos their meals' uniquely different from any other ordinary fast food you can find in Singapore. Their servings' huge! And similarly the mushrooms had sizes to complement the burger. On top of that, generous servings! That's probably why we only ordered a combo (Just imagine my "appetity" Dear only ordered one. Haa.). 2 burgers would definitely be too much, especially for girls. The fish & chips were of lower standards compared to the burgers. Probably you should try their chiken strips instead. Go try!

Ratings: /5 (Probably, the last one is cos I prefer healthier food?)

Anyway,

HaPpY NeW YeAr tO aLL mY dEaR fReNs, mY beLovEd siStErS aNd eVeRyoNe!!!

2005-12-30T00:26:00.000+08:00

It's been quite long since I've last blogged. Oops! But anyway, not to disappoint everyone, I'll make this a photoblog then!

Ok, n I actually forgot to wish u guys a Merry XmaS! So here goes: Merry Belated Xmas and Pre-Happy New Year! Haa.

Alright, here goes all the photos..

Went to Dear's gathering cum Xmas Celebration last min. Didn plan to go at first. Cos was abit sick. But anyway, it turned out to be fun! The group photo, excluding Ian, Ivan, Reza and some guys.

The point here is actually to capture the group with e nice Xmas tree but then..

Dear's house 7 feet Xmas tree. Very nice! One of the attractions of the day!

Guess who's the main person in the pic? Or rather who's the main mammal in the pic? Haa..

From left: Joel, Jun Hao, Joey, Ching Guan n Hong Han.

The sinful meal which consists of very very nice fruit salad(prepared by Joe-l/-y) and pizza-ssss.
Although the food was not tt Xmasy, the companion was really great! What more could I ask for?

A typical "Guys Activity" -- PS II. And the game? Winning 11.

Us!

Cheery Hong Han, Muscular Joel, Bubbly Andrew & Cute Me. Bleh.

Dear and I went to ROM. Don't worry, definitely not a rash decision.. cos we were invited! Haa.

28th December -- My cousin's, Felicia's ROM!!

Her very nice hair! Huh? How does she looked like? Keep ya in suspense.. But indeed, she was really gorgeous and beautiful tt day!

Moi Brother and Andrew! Nonono, they were not the ones getting married.

My mum, my HAPPY aunt, beautiful cousin and me.

With her husband-to-be! He's a Malaysian by the way. I was wondering why their solemnization room didn't have those names like "Cherish", "Love" etc until I realized it was a private suite, which means all of us could enter and view the whole process (normal ones only permit the witnesses). But of course, more ex.

There's even a walk-in procedure! Like the real one in church. In addition, they even prepared the walk-in music. Cool!

Exchanging of rings. Wonder how many carats. Hee.

My cousin's family with mine (Dad's gotta work tt day).

Fort Canning Park for pictures after that. Me, Mum and Bro out in the open under the scorching sun.

Moi cousin and me! How time flies! We were always on good terms although she's much older. But then again, she looks young huh?

3 of us. By the way, I liked her gown and shoes. She really looked good that day.

Andrew and mi with the couple!

We requested for the proper proposal photo.

And of course, the intimate ones. Haa.

Actually there's more photos but then, I'll just post some. After all that, we went to the Grand Plaza Park Royal hotel to have a buffet lunch. Not bad.

After lunch, we (Andrew, bro n mi)felt guilty. Haa. But of course, they were much more guilty than mi. Went to Hyatt gym with Joel in the late afternoon (without my bro. So much for feeling guilty). Hahaha. Anyway, Joel's real good, can be a gym trainer. Learnt alot from him. I shall appoint him as my trainer! Muahaha~

Anyway, after gym, we went to take some photos of the Xmas lights in Orchard before they're removed.

Dear and me. Still as energetic after like 2 plus hrs of gym session.

Body builder Joel? And me.

Joel's house after all that. Cosy! I liked the little bar, not forgetting the Barcardi Superior. So strong! Haa. N his nice little Xmas tree.

Too bad Joey wasn't home. Or else, there'll be a duplicate in the photo. Haa.. They were twins!

Well, that's all for now! It's late. Gotta retire to bed. *Yawn*

Bangkok

2005-12-19T23:55:00.000+08:00

Hello!!

It's been quite some time since the last post and there's simply so much to write about! But the most interesting has got to be the trip to Bangkok. Shopping there was absolutely heavenly, what more could a girl ask for? I shan't go into the details of what can be found/bought there, go there and find out for yourself! (And ask me along ^^)

I've posted a few of the photos that we took in Bangkok, a few of the 200+ photos taken using Andrew's new Lumix camera. And hopefully there are no duplicates with those posted in PS and Violet's blogs. Though that isn't likely as Violet's camera is filled with pictures of Daryl and Andrew kept taking pictures of ......

Isn't the hotel spacious? We were all quite surprised at our large rooms cosidering the low rates we paid. Anyway, here's a pic of PS and me upon arrival in our hotel rooms.

It's the same room! Though JR and Andrew would be the ones sitting there at night having their room service supper... tsk tsk...
Anyway, room service is like S$4 per order!

Our first meal in a Thai restaurant in MBK shopping centre. The food was authentic local cuisine and too extreme for us - too salty, too spicy or too sweet. Needless to say, it was our last meal at the place.

This is like the posh area of Siam, with boutiques and 5-star hotels all clustered together. Even the toilets are 5-star too!

Is the Christmas tree nice? We didn't realise we were in Hyatt hotel until later on. Anyway, this area is useless for shopping... headed to Siam Square

One of the many "cameo" pictures which we took! We had dinner at Black Canyon Coffee and would return there for another 2 meals over the next few days!
It's PS's favourite food place too! Dun worry PS! There's a branch in Singapore!
(vio n D', dun mind the pic ok^^)

MBK centre - We went there every single day of our trip! This photo doesn't show how big it actually is. Let's say from Wisma to Cineleisure with seven floors of small shops selling everything at bargain prices! I still miss the place....

Dun be misled by the seemingly clear view! The air there is very dusty especially during the daytime. Very very dusty.

Happy twentieth birthday PS and JR !!

Chatuchak Market - it's the famous weekend market of Bangkok and a definite must-go! I would rate this as the best place to shop!

The hotel lobby.

Absolutely delicious!!! So good that PS, JR, Andrew and me all dabaoed it back to Singapore! Oh, and it only costs $3+ for this huge plate.

A taxi-driver drove us to this restaurant in Silom. It's somewhat secluded and I've no idea where it is located! But the food is pretty good.

All of us were certainly glad to be seated after the frantic shopping we did that day! It's crazy but thoroughly enjoyable :)

The prawns in Bangkok are HUGE !! One prawn can almost fill up a whole plate and they taste so yummy!!

Bangkok's Chinatown. There're quite a few good and value-for-money restaurants here. Try the shark's fin, bird's nest and prawns!

We're at the Grand Central Palace. Some tourist guide stated that slippers were forbidden but evidently they were not!

Vio and Daryl looking at the carvings on the roofs of the buildings.

Still no idea what is happening here.

The decorations and carvings on the walls and roofs are just so intricate and beautiful....

The 3 of us posing

Erm...

The 6 of us actually managed to squeeze into a taxi!
=> money saved for shopping :)

Finally we found someone to take a group photo of us!

JR, Andrew and I went to the top of the tallest building in Bangkok. This is one of the many "backgrounds" for tourist to take pictures in!

No pink tuk-tuks in Bangkok... but there are pink taxis though!

One of Andrew's and my favourite pictures!

Our free drinks at the lounge on the 83rd storey of the building!

Our daily breakfast consists of -
dou jiang you tiao

Andrew's breakfast

River cruise along the Chao Phraya River. This was so so fun!

Can you spot anything?

There are really numerous temples in Bangkok, and most of them are very pretty. Like this one! (If it's a temple)

Feeding the fishes in the river . They were practically flying in the air to reach the bread I was holding!

I've no idea what place this is but it's awe-inspiring. Can anyone help?

Finally, a visit to where else but MBK for some last-min shopping before flying back to Singapore.

See ya again Bangkok !

WoOwEe!!~

Ok, maybe I was retarded or slow, the long draggy exam is finally over!! As usual, plans, plans and plans, but whether everything will go on and well depends lah. Till now, it's been very productive I shall say.

Yup, first, I did my facial. Never felt my smooth and clear skin for a long long time. I think my last facial was like months and months ago? Haa.

I did my hair today!! My damaged hair.. since that time I tried to perm (and it failed) cos of tt stupid guy($%?!). No, not yet over, I'm still quite traumatized by that incident. BUT Uncle Derrick managed to revive my hair! Ok lah, not revive lah, he trimmed off my damaged ends and did colouring for mi. Now my hair looked smooth and I came to realize that it's gradually improved. So all my hard work (treatment everytime I washed hair, try to wash hair 2-3 days instead of daily etc) helped. Although it's not my 100% hair like before, it's about there. Yeah! And I got my babydoll fringe. Babydoll fringe? I always had one right? Well, you can say "again" and that it's nothin new but this time it's a lit different lah cos it's really those straight and full kind, no layers, no nothing! The colour and highlighting was marvellous too! Actually I din even thought of colouring my hair until some time later cos it's really dry and damaged, I just wanna try rebonding to see if I can just make do wif straighter and managable ends. Luckily Uncle derrick is there to advise mi not to and he really manage to rescue my hair! My hair now?Simply love it!

Hee, of course all thanks to Dear and Dear's mum. Auntie's really good to mi. =) Uncle Derrick's her super long long time hairstylist.

A super productive day as well. After doing my hair, we left Holland Village to collect Dear's car from servicing and off we went to concourse! I really had fun choosing the Christmas tree decor and other really nice stuff. Auntie wanna prepare her hse for Christmas and she wans to do a good one. I think the Xmas tree plus decor cost about $800+ bah. But anyway, the process was really fun and enjoyable! Not once did I shop for Xmas decor b4, my hse nv really celebrate Xmas. What a waste, I luv Xmas.

2005-11-21T17:04:00.000+08:00

I know, my blog had been stagnant dunno since when. Nope, I dun plan to make it any livelier any time in the near future. Call mi lazy and/or bo-chap. I just wanna concentrate on my exams now lah, and I wanna blog after I revamp my blog and of course, this can only be done after my exams. Sigh.

2 papers down already! But still, 3 more to go. This is a super hectic sem for mi and perhaps, this contributes to the many thriving reasons of my stress -- I dun want to let all my hard work goes down the drain during this last sprint! But still, I am not very convinced that I would get super duper good grades leh. Heck, who cares? I'll just try my best and that's that. Period. Anyway, my last 5km run was like a week ago, many donkey days away(oh my god!) and the worst thing now is I am coping with stress in an unhealthy manner or what psychologists called emotion-focused coping -- What I called highly dangerous fat-inducing method of stress coping. Oh my goodness! But the good thing is I didn't really put on weight, all thanks to the usual regular exercise I reckon. Heh.

Enough of that, my papers are still ok so far. Oh no, I already had millions of thoughts flying thru my head at this very moment, telling mi what to do after the exam. And by the way, if u didn't catch it, the keyword here is "after". Which means, I shall get back to study!! Which means I'm thinking too far off. 1st Dec, Come quick come!

I wanna revamp my blog.

I wanna go ktv.

I wanna go blading.

I wanna learn tennis.

I wanna watch lots and lotsa movies.

I wanna go exercise all day.

I wanna do facial.

Was browsing through my previous post to find out that majority of it was on the topic on exercising. Well, I am still currently trying to keep up with my regular exercise routine BUT so much so for the increase in metabolic rate, I had good indulgence in all kinds of good food last week. Those were not excuses for sinful indulgence ok(ok, maybe some. Hee). You see, before Mum went to Bangkok, we had a family dinner at those not-very-high-class-but-not-bad family restaurant. Then Dad wanna have good food when Mum's away, so we went food exploration as well. When Mum arrived that night, we had a nice dinner at those not that classy but good family restaurants with my aunts and all as well. Mum also bought some exotic Thai snacks back. So, well.. Surprisingly, ever since I started exercising regularly, I found a significant increase in my appetite, proportional and correlatetional to my exercising rate. All right, I think I shall "tone down" from now then to be sorry later. Haa.

Oh yah, poor Dear, his eyes were swollen from "dunno what" during our run that night. I bet the itch must be super unbearable. Eww, thinking of it arouses my goosebumps. Glad that everything's ok now. Since then, I had decided not to run at night, at least not for him. Well, it's better to be superstitious than to be sorry.

A few nights back, Dear n mi had a long long chat. I was quite stressed out and emotionally overwhelmed by alot of things, be it little thingy or major happenings, to the extent I couldn't understand my feelings. I guessed I was cognitive dissonance-ed. It was a terrible feeling, really. However, each time I undergo this kinda emotional roller coaster, Dear will be there to listen, support, advise and guide me along. And I really felt alot better after all the long chats we've had. I began to discover more about myself and more aware of all the things out there. Thanks for all, Dear.

I enjoyed shopping and walking around in town! It's been quite some time since I really put everything behind me and enjoy myself. Went to town yesterday, I still bought a Roxy bag despite my pledge to curb my expenditure so that I can splurge during the Bangkok trip. Uh oh. Dear had a "ta shou huo" too. Hmm.. I guessed I won't have the chance of "leisuring around" until exams are over though. I have been burying myself into books till late nights all along, and I think that ain't gonna stop anytime soon. Haiz.

K lah, back to work on my report.

Another tired day. BUT a great achievement yesterday, I ran 5km! Did some weights and managed to check out those machines too. It's been some time since I last stepped into the treadmill. No time, seriously. Cos it's actually quite a hassle to travel all the way to Hyatt and ended up spending much more time than you would have spent on just the workout alone -- It's just so wasted to skip the steambath and spa, hence, time flies. Heh. But of course, it's always nice to workout there. Thanks my Dear! You gotta Jia You for your training too!

Still, 2 heavy projects to go before the last sprint. I guess the Chinese modules are really not going to help in my cap score, again. I think my cap should be quite good if... Argh! No, no, no, here I go into all those counterfactual thinkings again. Better not think too much, or else self-fulfilling prophecy occurs. Ha. Whatever. Anyway, ps was such a sweety, vio n me received her msg today during our lecture. Hope we meet up soon!

It's Little Yuki's Birthday yesterday. Although he's so dear to mi, erm us and maybe all of u guys, but then, we are not that silly to held a party for him. Maybe next time bah. Ha. Let's take a look at him, erm, then.

HaPpY FirSt BirThDaY YuKi!!

Was reading Vio's blog and her tagboard's hot on the topic "Eat more". Haa. N I think it's true of D' to say that all or rather most gers yearn for a higher metabolic rate. No doubt about it, gers r more concern with their weight. It's so unfair! Guys always have this privilege to indulge in all kinds of sinful food without feeling the least guilty. Boo. N gers always have to go green with vege, little helping, so on and so forth. But on a brighter note, probably that's why we gers have a longer life span. *Bleh* Hooray for vege lovers, gers. I am one too. Hee.

Or maybe, once a month, there's these few days to a week when we gers can gorge up any food we want to eat and crave for more. Haa. So maybe we do have a "balance diet" afterall. LoLx. Whtever the case, I feel that eating healthy and exercising regularly is the best way to keep fit and stay healthy. Occasional indulgence in cravings should be fine too, just don't overdo it! Increasing metabolic rate by exercising regularly is the best and lasting dieting method that I've adopted so far.

It's been a long time since Dear meet up with his bunch of "brothers". Met up with all of 'em yesterday, with the underlying motive to see Jun Hao's new ger. Haa. 1 more bachelor down, I'm no longer the only ger joining them from now onwards. LoLx. Was chit-chatting with Joey and found out quite alot of stuff I really wanna pick up. Tennis, windsurfing etc, sounds fun. Ian's back from aussie too, and if he's gonns work in California, I might be able to get some privilege if I wanna join my Yoga class. Haa. That's if lah.

Saw WanQi last Fri in Central Lib and we chat about quite a number of stuffs, mostly revolving around study and work. That conversation left some minor yet a little disturbing thoughts in me, not because of WanQi of course; It's about my own choice and decision in study. So minor yet it can linger in my thoughts for quite some time, stirring up emotions in me. And toking to Ian yesterday brought out this disturbing thought too. I think I need to buy more time to clear this confusion in me. Anyway, ignore this if u dun understand. Heh.

Oh yah, my mum and I unknowingly become ok already. She's gg to Bangkok soon, even before me! I can't wait for Bangkok to come to me. Come, come, come!!

Ok lah, get back to work already.

2005-10-10T17:14:00.000+08:00

My endorphins felt the need to release itself just now and thus I went for a run around my neighbourhood, the usual route, but this time, I am proud to announce an astounding improvement in my stamina. Hee. Probably because I hadn't been running around my neighbourhood for quite some time, and the incline slope of Bukit Timah Hill had been a much tougher challenge than the flat ground.

Hooray!

However, due to the busy schedules of "all these-and-that(s)", my regular exercise routine had been interupted and came to a standstill for about a week or so. Anyway, I'm glad that at least all the works are clearing off slowly. But come to think of it, all the deadlines are crazy. They are all clustered together and what I can do now is to clear them one by one. Argh. And I hate that! Now all my projects are like half here half there! =( 2 of them were still undone, erm, or should I say untouched? And I think I focus too much in my psy modules this sem? Cos I had been doing all those intensive readings that I sort of neglected my Chinese modules in some ways lah. On a brighter note, my CH3245 killer newsppr reading proj was done! We finished discussing the outline on Sat and Violet did the report typing yesterday. Yeah!

Haa. And we were like quite talkative that day? Haven been talking like that for so so long. Ps too. Well, hope this busy period passes real soon!

I have been cooped up at home either studying or doing projects.
I miss my life. I miss shopping. I miss ktv-ing. I miss movies. I miss Yuki. I miss town.
*sulk*

2005-10-05T11:45:00.000+08:00

Finally today's my day off sch!

Was still thinking whether I shld go Central Library to type my Chi Project and do some serious studying, but the idea of being stucked there for the whole day alone, which means no one to look after my lappy if I gotta go toilet or wht, turns me off. To think I stayed in school on Mon after my proj meeting until 8pm! But at least it's proven that studying alone is so much more effective. Haa. Well, no matter where I am, I can still do the same, so I decided to stay at home then, although it is the last choice on my mind.

Anyway, the deadlines are nearing. The coming weeks are going to be hectic for me, for you and for everyone else. But at least all these busy-ness will keep my mind occupied. Projects, term papers, mid term tests and quiz, tutorial readings are all piling up high. Sigh.

The ironic thing is YY and mi still managed to make time for Orchard to hunt for backpacks yesterday after our 6pm lecture. Yeah, backpacks. Our shoulders were so sore from the extra-heavy-ordinary bags that we were carrying. It was so amazing that our bags could get so damn heavy from just a book or two. Ok, of course I admit that an umbrella and a waterbottle could be the culprits as well. And our big big pencil cases. Heh. Nothing really caught my attention, really. So, in the end, we went back empty-handed, with some bagpacks KIV for YY.

Oh yah, can't help to sidetrack too. We looked at some shoes from this new Japanese shoe shop at Far East which sells nice shoes at quite reasonbale prices. Maybe can consider. Hee.

Have you ever cried until you wanna throw up? I did. My face and head went all numb and they ached like no one's business.

It's going to be the start of maybe a long, dreadful Cold War. I just hope that my soft-heartedness will persevere this time round. I gasped for the need to be understood. So desperate that I didn't have any control over my own action. I am in a dilemma. I don't wanna absorb anymore, neither do I wish to get my message across this way. I'm left with no choice but I really want them to know how dead serious I am. I yearned for a good one so long, I tried my best everytime. I really did.

On a brighter note, I'm glad that my frens and dear were supportive and caring though. Thanks a million.

It's been a tough night for me. Overall, a terrible week for me.

Disaster!

I was EXTREMELY SAD and ANNOYED yesterday. Since I had no school and Vio wasn't free for Chinese project, I ended up pondering about doing ceramic perm. Torn between factors stopping me and the rare chance of doing my hair, I plucked up my courage and decided to go for it. Who knows, it ended up in a total mess. A horrifying experience for me. I was traumatized.

I don't care, I am going to disclose the shop name and location even though they may sue me or what. Be glad that I didn't complain this matter to CASE. It's Jantzen at Jurong Point. Having done my rebonding there twice before, I went back to Jantzen for my ceramic perm. To think I entrusted them with the most precious "possession" of mine, they screwed up my hair! They are my xin gan bao bei u know?!!

The guy who attended to me must have been SUPER inexperienced! He fiddled with my hair for a long long time before every application of lotion/chemicals (or whatever u called those things). After the application and wash, another hairstylist came over, took a look at my hair, jaw dropped, horrified, walked away, beakoned for the guy to go to her and I think she looked pissed and was like telling the guy off. Ever since then, the guy seemed so lost BUT NOONE came over to tell him what to do. He was helpless and he didn't what exactly he should do next after the wrong application (I deduced). They (the other hair stylists) were in their own conversation, seemed to me, a commotion. I was like Hello? That's my hair, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?? And if anything bad happened, WHY CAN'T the more senior hairstylists come over?? You all had NO customers, you ALL were sitting down there, KIAO KA-ing(cross legs = nothing to do!)!!! It seemed like they didn't want to help the guy since he created the trouble and apparently, this had nothing to do with them!! For heaven sake, I was dead worried, sitting down there!

In the end, the guy came over and continue the perming procedure and I thought that things had been solved. But from my observation, he was really clumsy and inexperienced. He rolled the rollers for umpteen times and they didn't stay. So, he kept doing the whole rolling procedure repeatedly and occasionally he would look around, hoping others to help him? I guess lah. And alot alot of happenings which made me doubtful about his skills.

The outcome? My hair damaged, the perm didn't work out. To my astonishment, all he did was to help himself to large portion of scalping lotion and gel and kept smearing those stuff on my hair, hoping that the little SUPER IRREGULAR curls will stay. Hey, come on lah, I'm not blind lah, u think by doing that I will assume the perm came out all ok? That's deception ok! U r just trying to bluff me by saying my curls are permanent. In fact, they r not! My hair's neither curly nor straight and the most horrendous thing is that my hair's all frizzy and SUPER DUPER dry!! My goodness!! In my whole life, I swear I never had this kinda hair before. Never! I probed him with questions but he dismissed them by telling me my hair's dry and coloured before, that's why it's like tt.. Blah blah blah. Did I say he cut off quite alot of my hair? My dry hair ends had all been cut by him lor, I reckoned there isn't any left after he'd cut my hair, so what's with all those lame excuses and attribution of the lousy result to my hair? My hair quality is not that bad yah?

Instead of admitting his mistake, he kept on trying to convince me that the horrible outcome is cos of my hair quality. Enough is enough! Single-powered, stunned and sad, I didn't know what to do but to pay and collect the receipt (cos I was thinking I can come back the next day to tell them off and redo my hair) but you know what, they didn't issue a receipt to me and when I asked for it, they just gave me a printout of the price. I mean, what is this? All along, I remembered they issue proper receipts with their detailed writing of the treaments. By then, I was traumatized and more upset with my hair than to argue with them. I left. And I only found out the dryness and brittleness of my hair after I left.

Luckily my dearie came to my rescue. Actually, I should be firm and stood up for myself but I dunno why at that moment in time, I just wanna get out of that damn place and cry my hair out. As furious as he could, i guessed he reprimand the staff, demanding for the manager. Petrified and realizing the seriousness of this whole issue, they began to treat me seriously. I'll save the details. In the end, they admitted their mistakes and they got me a senior hairstylist to look at my hair. I really think that's not ceramic perm at all, looked like Medusa's hair. Little, irrgular, dry, frizzy curls. Sucks. Disgusting.

I thank dear for being the bad guy and I'm sorry to drag him into this but I was overwhelmed by sadness to stand up for myself then. He was really good in his persuasiveness and skills in getting what he wanted, at the same time, very logical and reasonable in his talking, getting his message and anger through in a calm manner. A glib and sharp tongue I must say and sweet, but to me. Hee.

Anyway, he talked to someone with authority over the phone since their branch manager wasn't around. I was doing my free hair treatment then, they compensated me on the spot. But no discount, that person was extremely sorry and willing to let his senior hairstylist redo my hair but I gotta wait at least 3 days later cos my hair's weak after all the chemicals that day.

To think a professional hair salon would expect their customers to leave, knowing that they're unhappy with the results, to think that they came up with all kinda reasons to cover their mistakes, to think all the hair stylists ignored the guy due to their own office politics, how great do you think this salon is?

I shan't talk more. If I want, there's still alot more to say.

Guess we are all emotional creatures.

I am one, making the air ticket thing a matter of worry. Now that everything turns out fine, I am ok already. It's really good that these friends of mine don't mind taking different flights. I thought I was the only one who thought otherwise, haa.. But no, not just me, I am not a worrying freak afterall.

Anyway, I hope my dear Vio is ok already. Let's hope it will be just like me, emotions getting in the way. Travelling together has its pros and cons. But yeah, let's voice out each opinion and conform!

I am emotional but not to the extreme. I was sad yesterday but I am happy today! Haa.. Let me repeat, I am not an extreme. I can be happy easily -- Shopping!

Bought lots of stuff today in town. Oops. I think splurging at one go is really shiok, so much different from spending a little at a time. Now I understand why Vio was extremely happy that day. Or maybe I haven't been to shopping for some time. Or because I am in shopping mood today? It is very important to get into the mood for whatever activity one is doing, you know? The amount of satisfaction gained is optimal.

Ok, I digressed. Cos I don't really wish to type out my "sinful" acts today. Conclusion is I really bought alot of stuff today (Note: "alot" is subjective!). But I am really happy! Haa.. Who says money can't buy Happiness? WHO?

Anyhow, isn't it ironic that people usually judge their favourite activities as sinful ones? Shopping, eating, playing? Shopping burns a hole in the pocket. Eating? How about the amount of fats introduced to your system when you indulged in your favourite chocolates(Choco? Hmm.. Maybe strawberry flavour for me?)? Playing? Aren't you supposed to be studying now? So, people actually catergorised their activities as sinful or not sinful?

Hmm.. Let's see, in the eyes of God, we are all sinners. What's the diff?

There is no diff between one sin or many sins made. So... Shop more, eat more and play more!!!!! (As if I will eat more. Haa.)

2005-09-21T10:13:00.000+08:00

My opened eyes are wide all night long. Only managed to sleep a wink for about 4 hours or less.

I cried.

Thought it was just a small issue, but the problems that accompanied the issue were so much more. I hate the ugly truth behind it all. The senseless, unreasonable fact that comes from a stubborn mind.

I despaired.

It is not just the trip I am sad about now. It is the chains of problems that courted this unmovable, firm stand. This physical problem caused so so much emotional damage.

I hesitated.

Not knowing what decision to make, which side to join. I made Vio wait for both of us. I felt manipulated. Maybe I am way too exaggerated, but I really felt this way. But then, no matter how bias I am, I tried to put myself in her shoes. True, I understand her point of view, but to me, the benefit of it all underweighs the original's.

I relented.

Afterall, I want to go overseas badly. It was not easy to persuade my parents and now that they had agreed, I told myself I shan't let this "small" setback bring me down. I forsee problems with mum though but for the sake of Dearie, I will try.

I tried.

I tried telling my mum about the incident this morning, hoping she would not prob too much into it and let me go. I was simply afraid she would get the wrong idea, leaving a negative impression of someone whom I wish I'd no negative impression of. I thought it was a blessing in disguise that my mum had the same worry! But I knew it was no bonus at all. In fact, even worse. She rubbed it in, so badly to me that I burst out crying in front of her. Maybe again, I treated her mild rubbing in too seriously. But it was not just her comment, it is everything.

I wept.

Fortunately my mum never flared up. I was so sorry to make her feel that she was the one who make me cry. It wasn't, really. If so, it was way too insignificant. I knew her. She is the type who will rub it in in everything and she would digress way too far. I don't blame her, not at all. But of course, the rubbing in has an impact on the current issue.

I sighed.

A complete mess. This process is way too much of a pain. I was and am hurt by it all. It relflects not just this trip but reality.

I think.

Or maybe, I think too much. Again.

PLEASE TAKE NOTE GIRLS!!!

The following is a real-life story..

I received calls from my handphone twice by this man whom I deduced is a sex maniac. The first time he called was about 2 months ago. He intro himself as an officer from the Ministry of Health and he told me I was selected randomly by their computer system to do a survey. I believed him at first since I had been to NUH for my dental few days before and I assumed he had taken my particulars from the hospital. Of course, he had the authority to do so, MOH right?

It was a survey on Women's Understanding of Breast Cancer and I was asked to answer his questions. He asked alot of awkward questions which left me feeling doubtful about his identity and the whole survey thingy. I won't go into those questions though cos I still felt uneasy about them. In the end, he told me he wanted to guide me through the check for breast lumps even though I had told him upteen times that I knew the process and the detailed steps (Hey I do read all those articles on newspapers n mag k!!). He ignored me and proceed to ask me to lie on my bed (He did ask me if I was home b4 tt). It was revolting! By then, I was 100% sure he was a bian tai!!! I told him I felt uneasy and uncomfortable with his request and I am not gonna do it but he told me my answers were crucial to the women out there. I was like "Yah, but I have the right to choose to discontinue with this survey" and he told me I canot defy cos it is the com system which shortlisted me for the survey. What a LAME reason!! Hello? Even participants from psychological experiments have the rights to terminate the experiment?! I continued with this hot argument and finally he "kap" the phone.

I was like GREAT, I KNEW IT, BIAN TAI!! U BETTER NOT CALL AGAIN!! Thinking back, the first thing he asked when I picked up the phone was "Who is this?" and he asked me to repeat my no. to him. I gong gong tell him lor. DUH! Where got ppl call to ask who u r n repeat ur no.?? Even if he's really MOH ppl, he will ask NRIC right?

I was dumb, but u noe once beaten twice shy. I became cleverer yesterday when he called, AGAIN!

As usual, he asked who I am. I recognized his voice instantly when he said Hello, so I asked back rudely "Who are you?" I should have add an "asshole" behind since I knew it was him but half of me wanted to find out what tis guy is up to again, plus I was shocked and pondering why hadn't he been caught and still "calling" scot-free.

This time, he said he was calling from a company and that I was one of the final selected women in a Lucky Draw. The prize is like $10 000 worth of Women Fashion vouchers. I was like "Wow! As if."

Then he proceed to ask me if I know what is "Ling-girl-ly".. I was like HUH? and He repeated "Ling-girl-ly". Disgusted by his command of English, or maybe just his pronunciation, I exclaimed back "You mean Lingerie (pronounced as Laun-ger-rae)?" and he replied "Yah yah". That's it, Loop hole! A big one too! I see fox's tail! (Hu Li Wei Ba Lu Chu Lai Le!!) I was angry at the same time. I didn't wanna hear what he's going to say since Lingerie can be easily connected to sexual stuff. He's definitely getting on my nerves. I asked him to hold on and I told my Dear Andrew who was unaware of my telephone conversation and then I passed the phone to him. That sex maniac hung up immediately once he heard Andrew's voice.

I should have made a police report hor?? Hmm.. Let's just hope that the BIAN TAI will be caught. Thinking back, I am still hot!

Updated Jean's Data of the Day

Results: Satisfactory (But of course, can be better lah!)

Braces: Progressing very very well! (Fast! i shall have them on by nxt fri and it's those kinda ceremic ones!)

Job interview: Postponed to nxt Mon (tink i shall be able to get the job..)

Overall performance: Super satisfactory

Overall mood of the day: Happy HappY!! YY was saying i'm crazy for being happy.. haa..)

~End of Update~

Yes. I feel much much happier than before. Maybe it's just that things began to fall into place ever since yesterday. Yesterday, all my trouble seems so far away... (Ok lah, today oso quite far away)

Yesterday. I got my results. I am happy for getting my first A+ for my first year in NUS. In fact, I was over the moon, just that my chinese modules pulled down my overall CAP. Similarly, last sem Econs pulled down my CAP, or else, my CAP would have been much better. Hmm.. But then, no choice lah, no use looking back. Let's just hope that next sem I will be able to produce much better results. But then, I am still quite happy with my results cos the modules I took this sem are much much more diff than the previous ones. I thought I won't be able to pass lor.

Yesterday. I went to NUH for dental review. It is a long story. Summary is my previous dentists didn't do a good job and my teeth tissues can't adapt to the new arrangement. Anyway, the main issue is to save time, I wanna save the hassle of queing up all over again. Fortunately, Andrew's uncle is able to help me in this. He got the best dentist to review my case, together with the Graduate's Department director(since my case is done by those postgraduate dentist). Although I gotta go back to the same dept to rebond my teeth(sounds like hair rebonding hor? haa..) , but only in this way will they manage to give me a rebate!! I am doing it at a super low price. Ok lah, not super, but to me, reasonable. And that's enough. My main concern is time. I dun wanna que all over again and I dun wan any dilly-dally. They got me a good graduate student I supposed cos yesterday he did everything for me despite the tight timing and his fully-booked appointments. Now, I got my separators on and the next moment, he told me the braces will be up next week! Efficiency. That's wht I see in Dr Chng. I am super grateful to him for listening to me, attending to all my concerns and assuring me about the process. And to Andrew's uncle as well. Without his help, I guess I have to que up all over again, wait and wait and wait, and plus no good dentist n the director will be involved in reviewing my case and admitting it's their fault. But still, Long story. I don't care what happened but I care abt wht's gonna happen. So, I'm still quite happy with the arrangement now.

kk, i shan tok much now. Tis's a boring entry. haa.. Take Care!

Wednesday afternoon. A nice cooling day after a pouring rain in the morning.

I was at ease after brunch, enjoying the thick but interesting book "Dog Stories" by James Herriots in the comfy of my bed with Snowie beside me until a din broke out in the living room, wrecking the peaceful silence. My divided conscience gave a summary of the commotion outside. It was between my mother and my brother.

Always.

It had always been like that whenever my mother is around in the house. Even before the din, she had come into my room, not just once or twice, to give a long nagging lecture on this and that, intruding into my story. At that moment, it seemed that I had suddenly been transformed into an actress or whatsoever. I had to act ignorant, otherwise, my patience will definitely give way. It has its limit. It would do nothing good for the both of us, or at least to me. Tolerance had also become part of the main cast behind the scene, since donkey years ago. No one promises that this will be easy. The same goes to my brother, who practises more patience and tolerance than me.

Before I knew it, my brother stormed into my room and shouted in a rage,"If I got money, I'll go out and never come back!" With this, he fled into his room, banging the door behind him. He seemed rather annoyed. My brother is a nice person by nature, and his patience has always been limitless to me. In another words, it is hard to see him flying in a rage. He is definitely not making an orgy out of nothing. He is damn serious. He is bloody angry. And I mean it.

My mother, of course, did not realize this and she made the matter worse by saying all her unreasonable stuffs when she heard what my brother had said. "Right." I was thinking. "Only you, yourself, are always right." Even my good-tempered brother is so pissed off at you and you are still always the ever-right person in the whole wide world. I wasn't angry at her or whatsoever(Maybe abit?). What I mean is No One is Right ALL THE TIME. She just doesn't get it. She always expect us to think that she is right all the time. She argued with us the minor things in the world. You mean those minor stuffs are more precious than kinship and family ties in the whole wide world? You must be kidding, my mother.

I felt so "injusticed" and sorry for my brother although sometimes I myself also got into this kind of conflicts with her. I tried speaking up for my brother. And what do I get in the end?? I got myself involved and she started saying,"Ni ye shi lah!(You are also like that lah!)" So much for clearing the air between them.

This is so ironic. She doesn't want us to be away from home all the time yet she destroys the peace when we are at home. If you want warmth at home, why create a din? How would you expect us to feel at home? Then, would we wanna be at home if home is such a place? This is exactly what my brother meant. "If I got money, I will go out and never come back!". Simple words and sentence, but it speaks more than what the surface means.

And if you are wondering what they are quarrelling about, it is just over a bowl of green bean soup. Yes, tini winy stuff like that. I wouldn't wanna go into the exact details of the story though. It is the usual cliche of my mother.

Cheers to the bowl of green bean soup. I think it is the ultimate winner and spectator of the whole "match". You win. But come to think of it, kinship losing to a bowl of green bean soup? It just sux. Big time.

Unhappy and mentral-cramped Jean signing off.
