yay! end of semester 2! which means exams' coming. I will be hibernating at home till 4th may! I can't wait for 4th may to come and then I will disappear from nus till next year :)

I have been very distracted these days when I need to study hard. I need MORE motivation!

Anyhow, I think the time has finally come. I feel glad. :)

Study study study!

To my lovely friends, lijia, adeline, wenqian, cassie, meiying,

STUDY HARD TOO! can't wait to meet you girls :)

2009-03-31T09:24:00.000+08:00

Total turn off.

2009-03-29T15:33:00.002+08:00

Right now, I'm learning a new software, Sony Vegas Pro 8.0. Had a tough time figuring how to use it! Now I am quite good at it and I can even insert subtitles for my video! :)

Have been staying in school till late with suat to do up the video and stayed in school till 9pm on Thursday and 11.59pm on Friday :( We were sitting on the benches facing the back of lover's park where there's a lot of trees with a big open space and I was still telling suat how nice the scenery is and then at about 9.30pm a loud thunder sounded coupled with lightning at very fast speed when there was no sign of rain in the first place! Scared the hell out of us, cos the school is really quite empty and it really feel like the lightening came in.

Then I waited alone at the rag site for mom to come, the area is really big with a few red metal benches around and there's constructions going on nearby. Quiet and empty and the sound of piling, you know you know? Haha. My school can be really quite scary!

The weekends that I have always been anticipating is going to be over soon, I can't believe it! Now I have to wait for another 5 days :(

Finally, I have made up my mind to accept the offer after procrastinating for a week, and I hope I wouldn't regret! :)

2009-03-26T23:48:00.006+08:00

I became a tourist at Sentosa on saturday. :)

Irregular meals lately with all the projects piling up and deadlines to meet and lunch was never proper :( The worst was the filming at east coast last Sunday which ended at 9.30pm and everyone was so hungry and cold. It was really cold. I was starving while I took the wheels but there was a big tupperware of warm and fuzzy fried rice waiting for me to gobble it up. sweet (:

Monday pls come so that I'll be done with MNO project!

2009-03-10T17:15:00.003+08:00

Maybe I shouldn't feel too happy yesterday! Cos what it takes is just another call and all is gone. Craps!

Anyway, there was this ljs looking guy who I saw on the bus. He was giving me weird looks and thats scary enough. After that, he alighted at the same stop as me. Even more scary, so I walked as quickly as I can, but I can still feel someone close to me behind! Wa. I thought he wanted to attack me or something! Freak me out! Maybe I think too much.

And I thought yesterday was a good day. It really wasn't.

2009-03-08T02:01:00.003+08:00

I was craving for pearly soya milk that I went to engine just to get it. It was partly to curb my crave for kungfu milk tea too! Haha. I hope holidays really come soon so I can drink milk tea and movies and dinner and nonsense and noise and laughters with the girls!

I keep getting myself injured at dance. Damn.

Everyone around me is motivating me to study hard and to score well!

Thanks and I'll :)

2009-03-05T00:19:00.001+08:00

I want to meet my friends and drink milk tea!

2009-03-04T23:45:00.002+08:00

I had the bluest monday this week. Imagine class started at 9am and lecture at 2pm was cancelled which means the next class is at 4pm. and at 2.30pm I received a sms notifying me that the 5pm lecture would be cancelled.

So my timetable on monday was, 9am -10.30am, 4pm-5pm, and 8.20pm - 9.40pm was my test. How screwed up can my timetable be with all the lectures cancelled? hais. And how drained out I would be at the end of the day? So I went home after the 10.30am, studied a bit and took a nap. and I was struggling if i should even go for the 4pm tutorial since 5pm lecture was cancelled. In the end I still went and regretted a lot!

To add on to my blues, there's negative marking for the paper. hais. And there's another paper on tuesday which I haven't finish studying.

But thankfully some kind soul drove me home after that very blue day.

2009-02-26T18:28:00.002+08:00

I saw a very pretty rainbow yesterday. It was so big! Everyone stopped to admire it, stopped to take pictures. But I didn't, cos I was too tired.

Just got back from an internship interview and it looks like economy is really bad! hais.....

I seriously have not yet done any study for my mid term exams! DEAD!

2009-02-21T12:11:00.002+08:00

Its recess! But I have no mood to study. I think I want to play too much. I can't believe I have to go back to school for 3 days on recess and 2 days for project. So I'm left with zero day of recess. Hais. But well, I feel happier in school this semester than last semester!

I can't wait for SEP! Even though SOME people are criticising about my choice, I don't really care. I've got my first choice of SEP and I believe I'm gonna gain a lot from this, especially in terms of the culture and the language! Because I'm going on SEP and Cassie going on Transfer, we realised that we aint able to attend most of the girl's 21st. How sad! and I just realised I'm gonna miss Meiying's birthday for the 3rd year :(

I can't wait for Wednesday too!

Yea, Finally I'm updating! Haha.

2008-12-20T02:22:00.019+08:00

Woohooo! End of exams! I know its a long time since end of exams, and holidays are coming to an end soon! HAHA. But let me update a bit on what I have been doing :)

1 Dec
On the day of the last paper, went out with fellow classmates to "celebrate" at Botak Jones! Then after that met Esther Ker and went to rcyc campfire. I didn't have a chance to replenish my brain juice (which is to sleep! HAHA) which is always do after every paper! Feeling very zombie that day! HAHA.

4 - 6 Dec
Went to Malacca to eat the nyonya food and to do some shopping with family. The foot reflexology is really good there! I love massages!

Before I book in for netball camp, I went to minds cafe with Cassie, Qian and Ade. Ultimate fun. We're intending to each buy a game and play among ourselves and thats including mahjong. HAHA.

We're building tunnel to the gold!

After which I left for netball camp with my ultimate heavy bag! Met new friends during the camp, play and play and play, and slept on the ultra hard floor! I just can't fall asleep. Its not like in the past where I can even go for 4d3n camps sleeping on the hard floor! I think I'm getting old.

12 Dec
Went waffles making at Adeline's house! Ade told us to go to her house 30 minutes later, so I kindly invited tongmeisi to my house to eat hotpink fruit with the taste of my hand! And its so yummy and sweet! After which, we walked to sunshine place to find Qian, because she said all the bananas are GREEN. I suspect she's suffering from colour blindness! HAHA. Then we proceed to waffles making at Adeline's and I cut the bananas, I'm so in the mood to cut fruits that day! HAHA. Waffles are yummy!

Pink Fruit!

Look! Cassie's Finger so STRONG!

The waffle machine!

We had waffles with banana, ice cream and chocolate!

Pizza for dinner! How sinful!

Ah tong at my house taking random photos

After waffles was Halo Bar! Beer. Dice. Poker Cards. Prata and Teh Tarik. Cabbed home at 3am! Ultimate fun day! =)

15 - 17 Dec
Bintan trip with BD mates. Miss those days when we chiong our reports and presentations together for a whole freaking year! HAHA. Best project group! Thats not the main point! HAHA. But, I don't think I'll go to bintan any time soon? Everything is so expensive! But we still enjoyed and made new friends =)

29 July

Met up with primary school classmates, Jia Pei, Wei Sheng, Nickerson and Dickson! Been a year and a half since we last met. Nice catching up with dinner, last minute mahjong session and supper. And we realised we've forgotten to take any pictures! Haha.

2008-08-10T19:30:00.003+08:00

28 July

Went to Excelsior Hotel for Dim Sum Buffet! The whole restaurant is so empty and Dim Sum was yummy! It was so yummy that we were so full and wenqian can't even bend down to tie her shoe lace! After that we went shopping at Marina Square, surprisingly, I bought nothing. =)

I want Dim Sum Buffet again! I think it will be a long time before we can go again cos school just started!

2008-08-10T19:06:00.030+08:00

19 - 23 July

I was away in Vietnam! Vietnam feels a little like Cambodia. It was a nice family trip. =) The number of motorbikes there is scary! Theres a lot of skills needed in crossing the roads! haha.

I went to the Caodai temple which they practice caodaism which comprises of the teaching of various religion such as buddhism, christianity, taoism etc. I always thought all religions are stand alone. Haha. I am really amazed and impressed by the Cuchi tunnel and I even went in to experience it which I have to duck walk the whole time I'm in there. I wonder how those people in the past lived in there.
Dad coming out from the tunnel!

There's also reunification palace where the north vietnam and south vietnam used to hold meetings and all in there. Its some sort like the korean war. Theres also the war museum where they pictured the sufferings of the people during the war. Its really depressing to see how people are being tortured and being disregarded as human during the war.

After which we went to watch water puppet which is well-known in vietnam. Its really interesting and beautiful. They are really good at controlling with the strings. Its much better than puppet shows.

Then its to Mekong River! The one same river I went to in Cambodia! Haha. Walked the trails, ate fruits, drank honey that tasted like longan, see the production of coconut sweets and took a horse ride and sampan boat ride. So kampong lifestyle. Haha.

Oh I've to mention, the Chinatown is so messy and crowded and scary. Cos people just push anyhow with all the heavy stuff that they're carrying. Haha. We also went to Ben Thanh Market the Beef pho and ice dessert is really nice although the level of hygiene is way below standard. Theres also this "cooking beef on roof tile" dish at one of the hawker.
Its a happy trip. How i wished theres just an extra day to walk around the central square and do some shopping!

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

14 July

Joseline's bday at basketball logo ramen shop!

The xing fu nu ren! HAHA

2008-07-26T22:48:00.002+08:00

I know what I need to do, but I'm not doing it. I don't know whats freaking wrong with my stupid mind. Its just not functioning well. Craps.

I dread school.

2008-07-14T17:17:00.004+08:00

7-11 July

Union camp was aboslutely fun with all the new friends I've found.

Getting ready for dragon boat!

The pool games!

Beach games

Slumber party!

Last day of camp.

Partying at MOS after camp! Almost died. haha.

More photos at facebook!

Now I'm looking forward to o-week! But I'm still unsure if I'm looking forward to school. Have to study hard again after so many months of break from lecture notes. Many uncertainties, new environment and new people to adapt to.

2008-07-05T11:43:00.021+08:00

Did my readers miss me? Alrights here are some really outdated post.

Bangkok trip 21-25 June.
Its fun, we shopped crazily and had really nice sight seeing trips. Here are some photos.

27 June
Birthday Celebration for tongmeisi and Lijia was absolutely fun. HAHA. Random laughters and loves.

1 July
Dim Sum at with pretty gals, wenqian, lijia and cassie at red hill. The food is really affordable and nice! I wanna go again. =)

2008-06-11T19:07:00.023+08:00

Hi everyone! I'm back from Bali.

Bali is a beautiful island, with beautiful sea and mountains. But unfortunately, I suffered from food poisoning on the 3rd day of my trip. I almost felt like dying, vomitting every single thing that I consumed, including PLAIN WATER. And 3rd day was the day we went for our day tour and it was really tormenting as I have to walk around and try my best to enjoy the magnificent scenery with my empty stomach. My legs were almost jellied. =(

I really love the waves and body board is so fun! Riding on the waves. What I was afraid was surfers banging into me, with the fins on their board. I think the days spent in Bali was not enough and I'll probably visit that place again. =)

Group photo. We were welcomed by a live rock band the night before when we arrived.

The pool is just beautiful and big!

Playing pool volleyball. Theres actually sand in the pool bed.

The guitars. Theres so many guitars around the hotel.

The mountain behind. Its a pretty view, and this was the day I suffered food poisoning. =(

Dining with the mountain behind. =)

Bro and me

My "Sand Tatoo"

Bodyboarding.

That poor horse. =(

2008-06-02T00:52:00.004+08:00

Saturday as usual went for kickboxing. Really need to train up on my memory skills to remember all those routines.

As I was rotting my way through till evening, decided to meet Wilson for ccf at amk to kill the boredom. But Wilson wanted to meet his lover too. So, we ended up meeting at yishun which is more convenient for everyone. So, I didn't get to eat amk ccf. Sad. To make things worse, Wilson and his lover keep making me angry. Grr. Felt quite regretful meeting them, that I'd rather be bored at home. Haha.

Sunday, met Amelia for some shopping and dinner. We haven't seen each other for quite some time. But when I see her, I'll automatically bao xiao. HAHA. I'm glad that we still can chat so much. =)

Notice? I've 2 pieces of bread, while Amelia only has one. Guess why. Haha.

Joyys!! You missed out the fun! Sleep la.. Sleep somemore! Haha. I'm so evil. I bet I missed out the fun the other time round too. The 3 of us should meet soon. =)

Graduation!

2008-05-29T18:25:00.022+08:00

Yay. Finally graduated after 3 years! Actually quite sad to leave poly and have to move on to a new place which means I have to adapt to a new environment again. Somehow feel that I didn't take enough pictures, like I wanna take pictures with some people which I didn't. =(

I was quite surprise that they actually invited a Regent representative for my graduation. Its really great that out of the 4 banking prize winners 2 are from Regent. Regent is a good school ok? =x Haha.

Alrights, I shall stop crapping. Here are the pictures...

So lucky, got to sit with jose for graduation. =)

Banking prize recipients with the lecturers =)

My happy and proud parents. =)

Finally graduated after doing tons of projects together

Me and jx

Me and Wilson

Rey and me

Sophia and me

The graduated class! DBF 01

What's with the stupid faces?

2008-05-25T14:46:00.031+08:00

Its been a really long time since I last blogged. After 3 months of waiting, I've received favourable replies from the universities. I have also passed my AFP and got the scholarship to do AWP. I feel so lucky and glad. =)

That aside. We had 4-9 BBQ on 10 May. I realised that we didn't have our BBQ in 2007! The chicken wing is so good that I'm still craving for it. Haha. Somehow the BBQ ended quite early at around 10.30pm and its really disappointing and frustrating that some people just come and go without clearing the mess they have created. Nevertheless, I would still hope to meet up with them at least once every year.

The following week, we went to sing song and celebrate my b'day and after that we headed for stayover at Cassie's place. I thought I could get to eat my cupcakes. But..... its gone. Sad. Then we mahjong-ed thru the night and I lost like crazy that I almost have to bring lunch from home to eat by the Singapore River. Haha. We slept after mahjong and Meiying's alarm just keeps ringing (like 3 or 4 times) very early in the morning and its so extremely annoying. Then we had McGriddles for breakfast but I would still prefer McMuffins.

Now I'm looking forward to graduation on 29 May. =)

2008-04-22T20:50:00.002+08:00

Let me rant.

I am seriously still puzzled about how uni admit their students. Why would they admit someone who got a normal diploma of a non relevant course than someone who is a diploma merit holder of a relevant course. This is ridiculous.

Whatever.

2008-04-21T00:24:00.000+08:00

Impossible. Somethings are better left unsaid?

2008-04-16T22:04:00.001+08:00

The wait is unbearable.

The uncertainties are unbearable.

Why do I have to go through this?

2008-04-06T14:02:00.002+08:00

Haven't been updating for a long time. Have been really busy with AFP exam, studying and studying and studying my approximately 8cm thick notes. But the exam was really tough. I don't think its easy to pass. I think its really difficult to cope study and work at the same time, a lot of determination, discipline and energy is really needed. Its really super hectic. But, whatever, less one worry and I'm glad its over. I also had my SMU biz interview not too long ago and got a feel of their learning style, did I like it? Up to you to guess.

Now, the greatest anticipation would be the acceptance letter from NTU and NUS. One day, as long as I didn't receive the acceptance letter from them = very very worrying. I hate the waiting process.

Now, I'm wondering how they screen our results. Is the final semester taken into account? If not, it'd be damn unfair. But, whatever it is, I've no control over it. Sometimes, everything depends a little on luck. So what if my results and cca records are more superior? Whats most important eventually is still whether they accept you or not.

2008-03-14T22:18:00.022+08:00

Dinner and Dance at Grand Copthorne and mambo at Zouk after that was really fun! Let the pictures say it all. =)

I just wish I could play like this everyday without having to work. I so wanna get back to school! =)

2008-03-07T17:33:00.005+08:00

Just heard from Joycelyn that my favourite girl, Srey Neng, and my student Vitmol in Hope Village got 1st in a duet singing competition. Its been a long time since I heard any updates about them. Just wondering how they are doing, if they will ever remember us? Because so many volunteers come and go all the time.

Sometimes, I'm just wondering if this is good for me?? Hmm...

Humans are ironic creatures.

2008-02-29T23:59:00.002+08:00

Meeting up with Cassie, Wenqian, Joseline and Ting Fang was really great after work on friday. I am glad everyone had great results and hopefully we'll get into the same uni. =)

Everything that is coming now/soon, is going to be tough for. So, I really need to be tough to handle all these. Be brave and strong? Whatever.

2008-02-27T23:02:00.003+08:00

WOO. Results out today. I hesistated for 12 hours before accessing to sas to have a look at my results. Results are unexpected and I think I did pretty well. Happy!

Results aside. Work now have become better, I guess I've adjusted and tuned myself to fit into the environment already. So, I'm feeling much better now. Now, I only have one mindset when I'm faced with all the debits and credits vouchers: Work hard so that I have enough money to go to hk and taiwan! =)

Work have been really hectic these few days with my first ever OT on Monday. Besides that, I've afp class on tuesdays and thursdays which made me real tired. The lessons are really interesting so, I really hope I can have a higher concentration level during the lectures.

2008-02-24T23:04:00.002+08:00

I've been feeling weird these few days. Just have to forget about it.

Whatever.

Its only human to be selfish.

2008-02-21T23:59:00.002+08:00

Now, I'm feeling quite sad for making such rash decision. Meanwhile, I'll still be looking out for better opportunities. I seriously don't like the environment at all. I didn't imagined it to be like this. Cos' its beyond imagination, too ugly to imagine.

However, all my poly coursemates are telling me to stay cos' they think its good. But all friends outside course would tell me to go. I'll definitely go when better opportunities come knocking on me.

PS: Don't mock me about the environment anymore. Cos' I'm really sad about it.

On a lighter note, I met Joyys and Sow for lunch today at Golden Shoe. I'm totally happy to see them around, must have lunch with them more often. =)

2008-02-15T07:03:00.001+08:00

Totally feel cheated by HR. =(

2008-02-12T22:31:00.000+08:00

Meiying invited us to her house to bai nian! Lijia, Wenqian and Tingfang went to her house too and we chat a lot! Never ending topics. Its been a long time since we all last met that I didn't know Meiying's pony tail actually become so long already. Then as usual, to bring up the CNY atmosphere, I played mahjong with tf and Meiying's friend and the rest blackjacked.

I have been working for 2 days already. Thanks to everyone who asked how I was coping. Work so far is still very boring cos' I haven't gotten my company's pin. After getting it I'll have to attend many e-learning lessons which I'm pretty much looking forward to. =)

2008-02-09T15:06:00.000+08:00

CNY have been great with all the catching up with cousins, uncles, aunties and grandparents. Besides that collecting ang pows was the best of this festive season. Hee.

I can't believe I'm starting work in 2 days time. =(

2008-02-07T23:25:00.000+08:00

KL trip was seriously FUN! Graduation trip with rey, zk, jx, mark, daphne, sandy, sinling, sophia, chow, trey, ng, des on board.

Before the trip, went to Willy's house to play mahjong through the night. Then we headed to take a coach to Malaysia in the morning. We reached KL in about 5 hours time plus interval and all then cabbed to our apartment. The apartment is totally big, nice and cosy. Bunk in with daphne, jx, rey, zk and mark. I got a single bed assigned all to myself with daphne as my room mate, however, apparently someone came to raid our room.

This trip is all about SHOPPING! But the guys ate a lot cos' there nothing much for the guys to shop and they ended up eating all the time. Haha.

Day 1 was Times Square and we combed the top few levels without touching the basement with all the good shops and its already times up. Sad sad sad. After that went to meet the guys and we split into 2 groups again. We went to this hawker and had our noodles. Its like very good as compared to our lousy lunch. Then we went to Federal Hotel to get the tolietries bag + charger which muddle headed gabriel left behind 2 days ago. Then which headed back to our apartment for zk's 20th birthday celebration! No longer a teenage! HAHA.

Day 2, went swimming with the girls in the morning. Our initial plan was to go to the sauna but its broke down. The guys staying in my apartment whom we call them the commandos with them waking up at 7am to visit the gym while the other guys from the other apartment who are the clerks and cooks only woke up when we finish our swim. After that late in the morning, we took a shuttle service to MidValley. This shopping mall is seriously too big. The girls took 4 hours and we only combed half of the level 1. Scary right? The guys already slacking and waiting for us at the meeting point and we requested for time extention. Haha. I would say MidValley is one of the best shopping mall in KL. After that went to eat zhi char at Chinatown and its not bad, quite affordable also. Then we went on a top grade counterfeit shopping spree. I didn't buy much though, only got a silly sunglasses which I bargain so hard from RM22 to RM10. Then its back to apartment with horror movie. But I would think its boring movie with me dozing off half the time. Haha.

Day 3, last minute shopping. We really shop till the very last minute. Haha. Then coached back to Singapore.

Some interesting encounter in KL was the taxi. Because our group is quite big so we always need 4 cabs. However, the fare for the 4 cab ALWAYS differ a lot. I guess its very much on luck. I took a cab from MidValley back to our apartment for RM22 while it cost the rest only RM8. But when I took a cab from our apartment to Chinatown it only cost me RM3.50 while the rest paid RM15 for it. Its about taking the cab with a meter or without a meter. Usually if we take a cab without a meter, they overcharge. But my trip back from MidValley, our cab was on meter. But apparently, the meter jump so fast la. Don't know whats wrong.

Its really a wonderful trip.

2008-01-15T22:37:00.001+08:00

School's done and now's the final mugging for exams period. I missed the chance to hang out with the adorable Cassie, Qianny, Lijia and Adeline. But anyway, Cassie's ill from missing me too much. You know how fun they are to hang out with? No words can actually describe.

And, I promised Cassie that I will cook for her a bowl of fish porridge.

Yesterday was the last day of school. Exams coming. =( =( =(

2007-12-29T22:25:00.000+08:00

Class Outing with Christmas celebration was totally fantabulous. Penang Place for lunch buffet and jx house for christmas celebration.

We played connect 4 on the train while on the way to his house and zk and I beat rey and sandy 4-0 in the game. Yay! I played risk for the first time, and I thought I'm so good at it that I own two continent. But, it didn't last for long. =( Cos' zk and kk attacked me like nobody's business. But, the game was still really fun. Hee. Log cake, christmas carols and present exchange was amazing and my initial gift which was a starbucks and borders voucher which was "snatch" away many many times. In the end, I decided to just "snatch" the gift sl got cos' he liked it so much which was a room scent thingie from Rey. I'm evil. Hee.

Mj thru the night and I think it was fun minus all the noise from sl and I learnt something new for mj. I think, I still need more practice. Extremely ultimate tiles. =)

A really nice day with nice company.

The kueh at penang place jx love so much. HAHA.

Ultimate gigantic logcake

Sandy stolen my vouchers and i stole sek's room scent. hee

2007-12-23T23:59:00.000+08:00

Today, Wenqian, Cassie, Joseline, Adeline and Lijia came over to my place to cook and to celebrate x'mas. Its always so much fun cooking with them, everything, from buying groceries to eating. Our takopachi, baked pasta and potato salad! The meal was delicious and the company was great. We mahjonged, bridged and Cassie practised her English Oral, and its totally AWESOME like what she always say. Haha. Qianqian bought chocolates to share, so much love. Although, I was pretty sad that the girls couldn't stayover, but I still enjoyed their company very much. =)

2007-12-20T23:59:00.000+08:00

Cos' you can make me smile. =)

2007-12-18T23:59:00.000+08:00

Sophia and Sandy came over to my house to learn to make takopachi. Its been a long time since I last made takopachi. But, its still so delicious. =p Its supposed to be a long fun day, but the girls came over only at 2pm when they said they will reach at 10.30am. But, its ok, cos' I've expected that to happen. Hee.

After that, met Adeline, Cassie and Wen Qian for dinner. We had our dinner at Manhattan Fish Market, and I personally feel that their food is very not my kind. Because the fisherman's platter that we ordered was all flour-fried. Grr. So harmful to my complexion and mass! But, I'm still happy cos' we had very very very nice pastry for dessert, even though I'd still feel that the passionfruit chocolate thingie that Cassie had taste really weird. Haha. After which we had a first ever drinking session together! =) I seriously still can't hold liquor, turned like patched-cooked lobster after 1½ pint of beer. Weak!

Hanging out with them is always fun with all the random laughters. HAHA. =)

2007-12-14T23:59:00.000+08:00

Finally met up with Adeline and Cassie after such a long time. We went to watch Enchanted. I'm surprised and glad that the both of them have not watch it. Christmas lightings are really pretty!! =)

2007-12-14T23:20:00.000+08:00

Thursday/Friday was a crazy day for me. I didn't sleep a wink, studying hard for treasury. I tried my best to fall asleep on my bed before I start my secret study through the wee hours, but i couldn't. I was so afraid that I couldn't pull it through, but, I managed to. =) I think I studied hard and I scored well. Perhaps, it was due to the phobia of the CA1 which I did pretty badly.

The weather was freezing cold that day, so, decided to head to school. Reached school before 7am, and the school was dark with only some lamps lighted up. The scariest part was at workshop 12. That place is freaking dark with no lights shining in. Freak scared, that I even thought of walking back to the main roads. But as usual, the "like to act brave pat" decided to brave through that dark corridor. As, I was walking up the stairs to SB foyer, I was happy, cos' finally I could see some street lamps. But then, as I was halfway there, one of the unlighted lamps suddenly lit up. Grr. This still wasn't too scary until I reached level 2 of SB. When I said something which my friend claims that I've said the wrong things and the lights near the lift suddenly switched off. But I guess all these are coincidence. Hee.

Guess, I'm really afraid of the dark.

Thanks for being there to comfort me when I was so scared. =) But still, I didn't like it to show the weak side of myself.

2007-12-12T23:03:00.000+08:00

Yay! Our team got into the finals for bsg! So happy. But, I'm sure its gonna be a really tough fight with all the very very good teams there to compete. Somehow, this finals clashes with our KL trip. Sian.

Achievers' cum Farewell Assembly
Its like, 3 years ago, we gathered at the Convention Centre for orientation and now we are gathering for farewell. I'm pretty sad that poly life is ending, with me not knowing where I'll be heading to after that. Somehow, putting achievers' and farewell assembly together may not exactly be a very good thing cos' I was separated from my classmates during farewell assembly. I'm super lonely down there with my friends sitting up there. How sad. =( On the contary, I think it would be weird to put these 2 events on separate days which will make them too short.

Although, I wouldn't say that I really really love my poly life, but I'm still sad about leaving that place, classmates, lectureres and all. 8 more poly schooling days. =( Oh, this is the picture that Sandy took. =) But, I'm sad I couldn't find my year 2 achiever's photo which my dad took it upclose! Grr.

2007-12-09T00:22:00.000+08:00

Suddenly, everything I see turned so blur.
I blinked to adjust my vision.
I strained to have a better view.
But, to no avail.

I don't know why, after changing to BioMedics, I can't see clearly even though the diopters is the same as the previous one. I went for an eye check, everything was quite normal. So, I decided to change to my old brand. =p I so wanna try Acuvue Define. But I still have 1 year supply of contact lenses in my drawer.

These few days have been hectic with fp and bd presentation, yoga and treasury test next week. Stressed. Bad timing with Achievers' Function cum Farewell Ceremony on Wednesday. I am anticipating a super packed next week. =(

My room has got a new look! Because of this, I woke up super early today. I was totally zom-ed out coupled with kickboxing. But I'm pretty satisfied with its new look. Somehow, I always feel good after kickboxing! kick kick box box kick kick box.

Unheralded moves.
Stop before its too late.

2007-11-26T22:11:00.000+08:00

My super packed weekend. Saturday, went for bd decision discussion early early in the morning and then to mentoring anniversary to get my bronze award. Thanks to ved, I managed to step foot at MOE Changi Adventure Campsite for RCY Challenge because my map just couldn't make it. Just within 10 minutes, I felt the heat. I don't know why, but the east side is so freaking hot! And I don't know how I manage to fall asleep with aeroplane zooming pass every 10 minutes. But, I'm happy because I manage to find time to try rock climbing and abseiling. I checked out of camp on Sunday afternoon since I've no other duties and I need to complete FP CA1.2. Thankfully, mum and dad came to my rescue and fetch me home from that rather deserted campsite. =)

FP CA1.2 and bsg test was pretty ok. However, I think our bsg decision is not that good and I'm not confident of maintaining our position for year 13. Whatever it is, I just hope everything work out the way we wanted it to be. I wore colourblend blue today for no reason and not much people notice it. How sad? I wonder why the lens is so difficult to remove because I had a hard time once again.

Anyway, I think the death of the 5 dragon boaters is really saddening, and what more, one of them is my brother's friend. Sad. May them rest in peace.

2007-11-22T22:39:00.000+08:00

Yay! Got first for bsg. Super happy. Our hardwork paid off. Seriously, the ONLY fun thing about bd is bsg.

The timing of everything is just screwed up. FP CA1.2, bsg test and bsg decision on monday with RCY challenge during the weekends. Even the weekends clashed with mentoring anniversary and kickboxing. Where am I going to find time to meet my groupmates for bsg decision discussion before monday? How am i going to cope? FREAK. I hope I can make it through.

Anyway, someone really lame came up with this riddle and I won myself a lunch.
"Punish all the rabbits in case it agressively nibble each other."

2007-11-18T15:45:00.000+08:00

没有期望，就不会有失望。

2007-11-16T15:20:00.000+08:00

Didn't have much time to update for the past few days due to MST. Freak MST. Another terror will be bklaw2 results. I don't dare to go to school next wednesday! I wanna escape from the truth, the reality. Was I too distracted this semester? I dont know.

Finally, I will be going for a red cross thingie tomorrow after such a long break. I hope it wouldn't be too awkward for me. But the sad thing is that I need to remove my newly done manicure and I gotta rush all the way back from red cross campsite for kickboxing. I think it was a mistake on my part for not taking note of the clash in timing of my kickboxing session.

Qian qian when you wanna come sb find me? Hee.

I think I did a brave thing today. =)

2007-10-30T23:59:00.000+08:00

(edited)

Monday wasn't a good day to start the week with. I went to school to do project and yet, nothing much could be done all because certain topics wasn't taught. Damn. I just hope I could get over with this project, a pathetic 5% project. However, it wasn't too bad as I still have to be in school for yoga. I went to yoga class today alone. But whatever it is, yoga was still fun.

Today met up with Amelia and Connie at VivoCity since Amelia works in habourfront centre. I think its been quite sometime since we last met and talked. Omgs, I just can't control my laughter and I couldn't care much if others are staring at me. Haha. Meeting up with them is never boring. =)

Whatever it is, I just don't feel good being pang seh-ed by the same person 2 days in a row.

Happy birthday Adeline! =) Loves.

2007-10-28T23:54:00.000+08:00

I heard that sound and I know I'm so gonna be in trouble. My heart raced and I was seriously fretful. I've never feel this way for a long time. I know I'm in deep shit and theres nothing that I could do to revive the situation. I took a look at it and I totally freaked out. Its not a simple one. I was totally despaired and at that instance, I was so disappointed with myself. How could I be so careless? I was always careful, really careful I mean.

Could you lend me your shoulder to cry on?

2007-10-27T22:44:00.000+08:00

Yay. Went night cycling with my friends on friday night. It was really fun! I'm sure I wanna go again! I met Wilson at my house and off we go to Botanic Gardens to meet the people from the East. We reached there an hour earlier, and waited and rotted. I think its partly because I was so determined on reaching earlier than them that I cycled pretty fast and refuse to take much break.

Wilson and Me and Coronation Road.

Our arrival at Botanic Gardens

Cam-whoring while waiting....

As we were so bored, so while waiting for them, I decided to have a bet with Wilson. A bet on a drink. Wells, we bet on who will be the first to reach amongst those coming from the east. I bet on junxian and he bet on sengliang. There, I saw junxian coming at the pedestrain crossing with sengliang behind him. Then jx stopped for I dunno what and sl overtook him taking a diagonal cross and reached first. So disappointed. =(

Finally they arrived. Eleven of us. =)

Our bicycles

Planning out the route

Just as we were about to set off, some problems came. The seat of Mark's bicycle came off and with Rey's doraemon bag they tried to fix it with some equipment from his bag.

Supper at a Mr Prata.

Was Hong Ze traumatised by something?

After the the supper, we headed to Labrador Park to chill and relax.

2007-10-23T11:52:00.000+08:00

We celebrated Sophia and Boss' birthday at Sketches. Seriously, I feel that the food isn't really that great. Or perhaps, it was my fault? Hmmm, decided to "design-a-pasta". So well, I designed my pasta and DA DANG. HZ said it looks like dog food and to add on to my sadness, after a mouthful of my pasta, JX asked if I'm starting to bark. =(

Anyway, Boss' birthday cake is really super cute. It looks so for him.

Happy 20th birthday to Boss!!

Happy 22nd birthday to Sophia!!

2007-10-19T23:59:00.000+08:00

Somehow, this "game" is getting exciting yet scary. I don't know whats coming and I don't know what to expect. Sometimes, my reflexes aint within my control. I hope nothing changes too much.

Anyway, Happy Birthday Vedro! Hope you had a nice day. =)

2007-10-12T23:38:00.000+08:00

Smiles.

I feel happy today. =)

2007-10-12T23:25:00.000+08:00

Mind your own business.

What makes you think that I'll be willing to listen if you wish to speak. Just leave me alone.

Whatever, I'm happy with my life. I'm happy with whatever I've now. I'm happy with my status, lifestyle, studies, family and friends. So, don't try to change anything of me. Don't try to hurt me. Many hiccups along the way, but I'm sure everything is resolved and we're building back our friendship very well now. Please don't try to jeopardise this friendship anymore. Let it be. Don't try to act smart and try to add in some spice into our friendship. Your ingredients are fatal. I don't see a need with your interference. Leave me alone, will you?

2007-10-11T23:59:00.000+08:00

I went jogging today! Like finally. =) Went jogging with my class and 02 guys. Strangely, I ran 2.4km without feeling really painful. Haha. I had an agreement with Rey in order to motivate me to run. Let me introduce to you some stunning formulas:

My formula: (x+2) rounds

Rey's formula: (x+10) rounds

He completed that stunning 14 rounds without stopping and all his friends ran along with him though they stopped here and there. I was guilty for making Rey run that distance. Their pre-NS training was really tough. Running, ~ pull ups, 60 pumping, 100 jumping jacks and some weird weird exercise. I did all of that with them ok? Fit right? Just that I did inclined pull ups, 35 pumping (girls style) and 60 jumping jacks. Hee. Now, I'll work towards my goal of doing one pull up in order for me to get the treat from sl. Exercise today was fun. =)

2007-10-11T22:58:00.000+08:00

Somehow, someone spoilt my beautiful day. No words can fully explain how I am feeling. Disappointed? Upset? Angry? I don't know. But whatever it is, I found someone who is able to understand it well, to confide in. Thanks a lot. You really made me feel a lot better. =)

I just hope that everyone could just do their part and lead a happy day everyday. But thats only the wishful thinking on my part. The world isn't as pretty as I've always pictured. Maybe, as more complications come into my life, I'll grow. Thanks to everyone who sincerely protected me and cared for me. I wish I could plug my earphones and isolate myself from the surroundings. Is there really an expiry date for friendship?

I read joyys blog and I smiled. I'm really thankful for your trust, for standing by me, for showering me with your care and concern. But, I still can't forgive you for rubbing your bare butt against mine! =x Although many sad things happened and I wasn't really very nice to you and had many doubts about you. So stowree! But I believe its a blessing in disguise. Now, I really trust you with not a single teeny weeny doubt, we will be closer. I love my stowree mate too! =)

2007-10-07T18:09:00.001+08:00

Its mj once again. I guess we're pretty much hooked onto it. I enjoy the mj session with the right company. =) Also, I'm really sorry that I made someone angry. =(

After mj session, went to meet my classmates at chinatown for some singing session. Everyone just sing their hearts out, no matter how awful it is, we just sing it anyhow. With the exception of some shy ones like sandy and zunkit. Haha. Also, through this singing session, I got to know of a new cute song, Calcutta and the way Rey sings it is hilarious. It was total fun once again. =)

The Chan brothers

The love birds

Thanks Rey for these postage stamps. =)

2007-10-01T23:04:00.001+08:00

The look, the smile. =)

2007-10-01T23:01:00.000+08:00

If only guangyi and weiquan listened to me! Grr.

Also, Happy Birthday qian qian =) stop saying you're not 19!

2007-09-28T22:59:00.001+08:00

There is only treasury lecture today! After that, I was supposed to be doing the cambodia noticeboard. But, as usual, everyone was so ultra late and since none of my classmates wants to join us for lunch. Ved suggested that we go to clementi to have our lunch. This is the first time sitting in Ved's car front seat. The door of Ved's car was seriously heavy and I don't know how to adjust the car seat backwards. I tried every control! But, still cannot. =( His car is too digital.

After which, we went back to school to do up the noticeboard. EMOSTOWREE! The board is seriously damn nice! =x People please check it out, its the ex-china itp noticeboard beside T2247. I love company with emostowree! First week of school. I meet Amelia, Connie and Ved EVERYDAY and the rest like 3 to 4 times in a week. Its a need to meet up! =p

I wanna thank sista Shuyi and sista Connie for getting my berry yoghurt lollipop! I feel loved.

Somehow, I feel happy today =)

2007-09-26T23:28:00.000+08:00

Changes.

A total change of my usual project grouping for ITFD. Its a 4 guy, 1 girl team, I hope I'll be able to cope well. In fact, I feel changes as such are actually not bad. A change in environment? Working with different people? Perhaps so. =) Seriously, I haven't work with all guys for any of my projects before, but, I'm looking forward to working with them.

Went on a crazy combination "outing".

Somehow, you don't have to explain.

2007-09-22T00:01:00.000+08:00

Its another outing with emostowree. We went to settlers' cafe! Its ultra fun. Unscrupulous investors. I simply love their company, and I need more mahjong sessions! Hee.

Anyway, it was a pretty nice date. =)

Ohhh, I miss pano so much. Seems like I'm only contacting qian qian so far! When are we meeting uppp!?

2007-09-20T12:47:00.001+08:00

It was really a great workout day, I feel so fit. =p Under the scorching hot sun, I walked to farmart with lwl to catch prawns! It was really hot and I keep complaining about his crazy idea to walk there when I kept suggesting if we could drive there or cycle there. But, never mind, I can exercise to burn away all those fats. =) This is the biggest prawn caught, but not caught by me! =( I'm not skillful enough yet. The prawn just kept biting my bait and swim away. But I caught the second largest prawn of all our catch.

Oh wee! I finally replaced my torn-wrapper-lollipop! Look at it, its branded! Haha. Thanks lwl. We got a good trade there yea? =p

After prawning, went home to have dinner and shower then off I go to Zouk! Initially. I wanted to drive there. Because, I can't stand the superly expensive cab home and nobody is there to share cab with me. But, dad seems very much against the idea of me driving there. So, he sponsored my cab home! Weee. And my brother sent me there since he was on the way to work. =) =) =)

Zouk was ultra fun! Dancing to the music, woo, yet another great workout. I feel so happy after zouk!

Ok. Me and my spastic looking "boyfriend" -.-

Oh~ The girls.

Anyway, I cut my fringe myself and I liked it a lot. =p

2007-09-13T23:57:00.001+08:00

emostowree!

We had an overnight mahjong session at Weiye's house! Its ultimate fun can!? HAHA. Then we went to Jln Kayu to have supper. The guys ordered too much food and fei jie kept reminding them of OHF. I guess we already tried our best to finish the food. Okie, and this is the first time I took Vedro's car! Woo.. his car is really big. Audi don't know what. But I think he drive a bit hiong. lol.

Only fei jie and I stayed awake throughout the whole thing. I'm truly zom-ed. Even now, I still have the zom-ed feeling. lol. Went for mac breakfast before we headed home. We thought of OHF once again as we munched on our ultra oily harshbrown. It was a fun night. I love emostowree.

2007-09-13T23:22:00.000+08:00

Seriously, don't try to pull me into your group of friends when it is obvious that we don't belong. Its such a superficial relationship between us now. Just hi-bye. Do you think I'd go and enjoy myself? and do you think they wouldn't feel awkward with me around? We just need to face it and stop avoiding. We don't belong to the same clinque anymore.

Hmm, have lots of thoughts in my mind recently. Maybe it was a mistake to have talked after I came back from Cambodia not long ago. I realised I can't put my thoughts together properly. Whatever it is, I feel that a barrier was built.

2007-09-09T00:01:00.001+08:00

Okie. More updates on my Cambodia Trip. I really found very nice new friends and I hope we'll always keep in touch. There being the stowree girls: amelia, connie, joyys, peisi, shuyi, meiqi, crystal and xuemanda. I'll never forget the times we spend in Hope Village, Basement Bunk 3! There are also the emo guys: bson, vedro, brian, weiye, bob, jeremy, david and sheng loo. We went through everything together. We conquered:

Asia Hotel which many had bad encounters. First was the unreasonable security guards, then the lock wasn't properly installed. The feeling of the room was weird and they have this frame which makes it look like a mirror and I was stunned when jeremy jumped out from it. And there being only 3 girls staying on the 1st level. I'm one of them. OMG. Thankfully, some kind emo guys agreed to change room with us. =)
The bus which broke down halfway, out of nowhere.
The food at the orphanage.
The toilet at the orphanage which was kinda dirty; which i eventually got used to it. And I had to bathe with joyys, doing our never ending 1-2-3.
Sleeping in a 9-girls bunk, without common toilet, which we have to share with the orphans
The sleazy restaurant which makes people go giddy. I almost went crazy at the restaurant, I was truly freaked out. Thanks to all who showed concern. =)
The lorry which also broke down halfway; which made in the guys push the lorry.
The bridge which was unsafe for us to go over; causing us to make a detour on very sandy and soil-y roads. I wouldn't call them roads actually. It was really a bumpy 2 hours ride. The amount of sand we breathe in was really a lot even with our mask on.
The kampong with many puddle of muds, pigs, dogs, chicken, ducks, all around. Walking around that village distributing soap under the ultra hot sun with fierce dogs charging at us.

Even though its tough living there. But I truly enjoyed my stay at Cambodia. The kids at the orphanage are really cute. Especially my class, my students! Hee.

Vitmol: He is the youngest but the brightest boy in my class! He is able to express his thoughts and he have a better command of English as compared to the rest of his class (due to him having English classes while the rest do not have). He story he wrote that I'll never forget, about the mother bee and the baby bee. =) He wants to be a translator to help visitor of Cambodia to communicate with his fellow Cambodians.

La: Ok. This is one student which I like. =) He is also very smart. He tries his best to speak more English in class and always raises his doubts.

Tokna: This is also another student which I like. =p Her English is also not bad and she speaks quite well. You know, those loud and clear kind? However, she is a little quiet in class.

Okie, shall only highlight 3 students, in case I bored my readers to death. The children at Hope Village are really adorable. They are not a bit like Singaporean kids who are so spoilt and ill-mannered.

The orphans feel fortunate to attend English lesson outside the orphanage, and only sponsored kids get to attend. Its just a mere US$1 for a month's of lesson. They attend the lesson everyday without fail. What about us? Spending a few thousands on our education and yet we skip classes. Their will to study hard, and the interest they show in studying made me felt so guilty. Can you imagine? When we were teaching them about money and stuff, they asked how much does our clothes cost. So, we gave an underestimate that its around US$10. They gave the face like they wanted to faint and compared it with 10 month's of English lesson. That is how much they love to study and gain more knowledge.

They could actually be playing around instead of attending my English lesson, but they chose to study English. They even said they like studying English. We gave them quite a lot of test within that 6 days of teaching and they also ended up giving us test by teaching us 5 Khmer words a day and testing us the next day. It was really fun and interactive!! =) As my class consist of student ranging from 12 - 14 years old. We had more interactive and outdoor games. We had to brainstorm games every now and then as they think better outside the classroom. =) I'm surprised that they even have scandals within the orphanage.

When I first entered Hope Village. I shock with their living condition, I was crestfallen. Imagine have a whole set of rules to follow EVERYDAY? Having to face disciplinary lecture for wasting some rice. We don't even wink for wasting one whole serving of food. Imagine having just 1 dish and 1 serving of rice EVERY MEAL? Not forgetting that their food don't really taste nice and they hardly get much meat.

However, as I stepped out of the gate of Hope Village, there i see kids rummage through the rubbish to find food, and then I started to feel happy for the kids in Hope Village, they are indeed fortunate. Somehow, I feel safe being in Hope Village, but once I'm out of the gates, there isn't that secure feeling anymore. And then I went to the village which looks like a farm, kids there can't even converse well in their own language. Seeing the worse, worser and even worser condition. I am starting to appreciate everything around me after realising that people are worse off on the other side of the world. I even appreciated that I was staying the the basement bunk of Hope Village during my community service.

As I was starting to adapt the living condition in Hope Village and thats when we're about to leave. I'm sure I've learnt a lot through this trip and I've grown. I start to think a lot and ponder over everything carefully. I can't really pen down my thoughts and what I've learnt on the trip now. But before the trip, I was still thinking if I had made a hasty or wrong decision to go on the trip. Now that I've experience it. I'm sure I had made the right choice with no regrets and I'm really glad I went on the trip. The experience and the learning points that I've acquired on the trip is something not everyone can get. This is truly an experience.

Now that I'm back in Singapore, I feel so lost. I'm sure most of my emostowree expedition mates feels the same. I don't know what to do, i ended up sleeping a lot. I feel lost at home, I don't really feel happy with my computer and TV. Will we even experience the true meaning for happiness? We just expect more and more and too much. Only kids with simple lifestyle will.

I will always miss the bao liao-ing session in our bunks and the STOWREE big S action. To be truthful, I was kinda sad on the last day when everyone need to part. =(

Now, I'm awaiting for the meet ups with my emostowree friends.

2007-09-07T01:17:00.001+08:00

Hi my dear friends! I'm finally back from Cambodia! I survived it. =) Will upload the photos when i get all. Its really an exciting, memorable, fun and eye opening experience. That kind of experience not everyone will get kind. I really enjoyed myself, especially the company! We went through all of it together. I love the bonding within us.

I'm actually pretty sad that the trip is over just when we were starting to adapt to the village life and when we were having so much fun. I'm glad I went for this trip.

I'm so bored during study break!! =( I rotted at home too long that I decided to meet weiquan for some ice cream. hehe. yummy but sinful. This guy, I think he changed la! HAHA. 加油，不要被打倒。

Today went to watch Simpsons. The movie is really funny; worth watching. =) Finally, I get to taste Cheesy Bites. Its so cheesy, sinful yet again.

Maybe, I should really start studying now.

I'm feeling lousy right now.

I'm seriously addicted to DJ Max now.

Ouch. My legs are ultra aching and my body is ultra tired! Got back my gems paper today! Hee. I'm so happy that I got full marks for the final test. =) After gems I went for the fund raising activity for Cambodia. We managed to raise quite a sum. =) Me, Bson and Vedro were playing cai quan and hei bai chey to determine who is gonna go out to ask for $$. And Vedro keep losing. Lol. So glad we got a rough idea of what to do for our English lessons. Now, I'm less demoralised about the trip. =) I'm super tired after that, that I'm dragging my feet home. The after effect of napfa test! =(

I heard of many comments about this year's talentime.

Here are some random pics:

Samsung 1.3 is better than dopod 2.0 =)

Me and my colourblend BLUE. Hee.

2007-07-31T22:22:00.000+08:00

Today isn't a really good day to start of with. Blea. I've been rotting in school for the past 2 days. Yesterday was waiting in school for talentime. Today was waiting for napfa. The guy who took us for napfa was really... refer to meiying's blog. Hee. I realised I don't have really much to write. Update again when I have more interesting stuff to write. Anyway, I'm jiajia's "shun bian friend". Sobs Sobs. Maybe because I became her competitor in the drink industry, thats why. Hai.

2007-07-24T00:23:00.000+08:00

I had my innoculation at TTSH on saturday. 3 jabs for me! Typhoid, Flu, Hep A. Grr. I had my Typhoid 2.5 years ago. But, the nurse said that its invalid when it has not even reached the expiry date. Initially the jabs was not painful. But, after awhile, i could feel the pain. Its like a strain, very 'suan' kind of feeling.

I'm so in deep shiet now, all becuase of Joyys Low! Grr. I feel so, I don't know how to say. Just that, it feels weird now. I wasn't against it, but now it feels like I'm against it. I don't wanna be a villian that I'm not. I don't wanna have another NZ-similar trip. Now, 'she' might think that I'm against her, I dislike her or whatever. But, I'm not, not even a single bit. I don't know why things have to be so complicating, its just 4 days. It sucks. However, generally, everyone that is going to Cambodia are really nice and friendly. =) I'm glad.

Yay! I got my blue contact lenses. =)

I think I have too high expectations for myself that I'm feeling so damn stressed now. I'm having nightmares like always. =( Now, I'm really fearful. What if i couldn't make it? Grr. It would be so embarrasing and there is no turning back. I know I need to just endure and fight for it. Its the last race. I know I can do it =)

2007-06-21T22:57:00.001+08:00

I know you'd be first.

But, now I'm in a delimma.

2007-06-20T15:32:00.000+08:00

I went to school early in the morning for the Cambodia YEP discussion. I just realised that I'm going to live in a 4 person bunk at the basement of the bungalow! =( Ben Cho said that food is really gonna be real salty and untasty. Grr. I'm feeling scared now.

**Joyys and Ved: Should we bring luncheon meat? =p

But, I'm going to endure it for a good cause. Teaching English and soap making at the orphanage sounds fun yet challenging. I hope we'll do and good job. Fund raising activites will be up soon and I hope everyone will contribute a little to these orphans so that they will be able to live a better life. =)

We had Khmer lesson in the afternoon and we were about to doze off! Its really difficult and not easy to grasp. But I'll do more revision before I leave for Cambodia! =

I'm so happy that I'm doing such a meaningful thing. =)

Congrats to Wei Quan for passing his PPCDL theory test! Hurry pass your practical! I'm awaiting to sit your boat! HAHA.

I went fishing at Labrador Park today. I can't find my way there! =( So, I went in circles. I remember seeing the brown colour sign with indicates "Labrador Park". But, I just couldn't find it. =( I was so pissed. Luckily in the end, I still managed to find it with my dad's help. Hee. We didn't catch any fish, but I had a great time. =) I wanna go fishing again.

Went to Esplanade for 4/9 class gathering. Only 18 people turned up and initially, it was really bored as no one from pano went. Grr. I had no choice but to talk to zk and wq. =p kinda pretty like forced to. LOL. We went around taking photos like some tourist and luckily and finally, Wen Ting came (super late). At least I've someone to talk to. Hehe. I just realised that Wen Ting have become like a gossip queen. She is still ever busy, doing so many stuff. Just hope that she will find some time to meet us up. =p

I hope we'll have a 4/9 gathering with more people coming. =)

Malacca Trip

2007-06-09T22:04:00.000+08:00

Went to Malacca with my family and dad's friend. Dad actually allowed me to take the wheels! Woo! I drove at 150-160km/hr. The feeling was thrilling! I wanted to go faster, but mom was nagging behind. So I had to slow down. =(

Oh, went to eat Nonya dinner and walked the Jongkers Street. The crowd was horrible and I was sweating as I walked out. Natalie likes to follow me, so I had to look after her. I was so scared that I'll lose her in the crowd. I love Natalie. She is so cute and she mixes well with everyone. She speaks with great thinking which seldom a 7 year old kid would do. Jovan is another one, he don't speak like a 5 year old kid. They are really good at talking. Fluent with logic. Cutee. :) I think they are both smart and really lovable kids.

Next day, had super nice Tim Sum for breakfast. Yum. After which, we went for the very famous Nonya Laksa and Chendol. Double Yum. :) Its Jovan's and Natalie's birthday, so we went to get them birthday presents. Jovan got cars and Natalie got her favourite Fairytopia Sunburst Barbie Doll. They had their birthday celeration at dinner. :)

Yummy Tim Sum~ =)

Double Yummy Chendol~

Natalie and Jovan. =) Look at the way Jovan blows the candle. Super cute.

Natalie and me! =)

The cars.

Anyway, on the highway back, there was some commotions. Seems like some action pack movie. LOL. I shall name my dad's friend "A","B" and "C". There is this Matrix which actually tried to act cool when he was in the wrong. He drove on the fast lane at 100km/hr. Being courteous and reminding him to move to the left lane, "A" shone the high beam. The Matrix still did not move at all. After some distance, "B" went to overtake the Matrix from the left lane abruptly. Much to the Matrix's displeasure, he pointed his middle finger and instructed "B" to stop his car. Oh wells, I think he is tired of living. So, they stopped the car, with "A" behind, "B" in front and "C" by the right side. He is cornered. Can you imagine a small little Matrix being surrounded by 3 Grandis? I think that really freaked him out when he got surrounded. "B" gave him a few punches and that Matrix guy still apologised. What a loser. Tsk.

2007-06-04T14:58:00.000+08:00

Now, I am wondering if I had decided on the Cambodia YEP on impulse. The decision-making was too quick. But, theres no turning back now. I just hope that I'll be able to learn something meaningful and to know more friends from this trip. =)

Damn, I hate to miss lessons.

2007-05-28T23:29:00.000+08:00

Sometimes, I think, I'm actually quite fortunate.

Someone said that my hair looks nice today. =) =)

i don't know.

2007-05-23T23:21:00.000+08:00

We got really bored doing BD! =( We bought this hairband which is for the Ronald Mcdonld Children Charity.

Be appreciative about everything around you. A GESTURE OF "THANK YOU" WOULD BE NICE =)

If only, there was if only. If only I realised this earlier. If only....

2007-05-22T22:14:00.000+08:00

I went to school in the morning for the Cambodia YEP interview. Yupps, I got selected. =) I'm going Cambodia in August. After the interview went to do BD again. I'm freaking tired. Give me a break.

Yay. Stupid friend msged me at 6.53pm and told me that he is discharged. =) I'm so so so so so happy. I'm so happy for you! =)

One of my birthday wishes came true today. Or is it partially? Even if it is, its on it way. =) Sometimes, birthday wishes do come true if its realistic. =) =)

So many smiley today. =)

why do i feel this way?

2007-05-21T11:49:00.000+08:00

Today was a real hectic day. Went around Singapore to observe Cheers outlet and 7-11 outlet in Bukit Batok, Ang Mo Kio and Hougang. I drove my lovely BD groupmates around to all these places. With a car, its really convenient. But I was totally tired out after all the observations.

Rules when I'm driving..

Do not freaking hell complain about my driving and act all so scared. If you're really scared, don't take my car.

Do not act as if you know the Singapore road so well and criticise me just because i missed a turn. (Do you even know the expressways? If not, just shut up)

Do not act as if you know how to drive when you haven't even controlled the wheels and yet criticise me

Fasten your seat belt if you're taking the front seat without me reminding you! ITS FOR YOUR SAFETY. (I get really pissed reminding all the time)

Do not leave the front seat empty, its freaking rude.

Just don't irritate or provoke me when I'm driving, I get really thorny.

All the rules are reminder for Law Wei Cai =)

I really appreciate my BD groupmates for being appreciative of me driving them around the different locations. =) I feel happy when I'm appreciated. At least, I don't feel like a driver and not being made use of.

I'm someone who needs affirmation, right REY? =)

Yay! Stupid friend is recovering and he looks so much better! =) Hope he will be discharged tomorrow.

2007-05-20T16:59:00.000+08:00

I got so emo at 10pm yesterday when I suddenly decided to meet cat. I just need to talk and stop thinking about it.

Everyone complained that I drove too fast yesterday. =(

2007-05-19T14:05:00.000+08:00

Class Photo! LOL.

2007-05-17T20:41:00.000+08:00

I visited him at the hospital yesterday and he wished me "Happy Belated Birthday" when he saw me. I've forgotten all about it. I'm touched ok!? But I scolded him for not wishing me on time instead. How ironic. Wells, its heart-breaking to see that he suffered so much pain and is still suffering. :( I'm so sad. I hope he will get well soon and jump around soon.

Thinking back, I haven't been a good friend. :( I wasn't good at all.

A pneumothorax is commonly known as a collapsed lung. Normally, the outer surface of the lung sits next to the inner surface of the chest wall. The lung and the chest wall are covered by thin membranes called pleura. A collapsed lung occurs when air escapes from the lungs or leaks through the chest wall and enters the space between the two membranes (pleural cavity). As air builds up, it causes the nearby lung to collapse.

A collapsed lung is usually caused by an injury to the lungs or chest wall, such as:

A penetrating injury, such as a knife or gunshot wound
Blunt trauma from a fall or car accident
Medical procedures, such as removal of fluid from the pleural cavity with a needle (thoracentesis) or a lung biopsy

Occasionally, a lung will collapse without any direct injury to the lung or chest. This happens when the lung is damaged by diseases such as asthma, cystic fibrosis and pnuemonia. It is particularly common in emphysema, which causes air-filled sacs, called blebs, to form. When one of these sacs bursts, air is released into the pleural cavity, causing the lung to collapse. A spontaneous pneumothorax also can develop in people who don't have any obvious lung disease. It's most common in tall, thin men between the ages of 20 and 40 and is much more common in smokers. Some people who don't have any obvious lung disease have blebs that can rupture and cause this type of spontaneous pneumothorax.

In most cases of pneumothorax, some air can move in and out through the tear in the lung or chest wall. If air can only move into the chest cavity, but not out, a condition called a tension pneumothorax can occur. A growing air pocket causes increased pressure within the pleural cavity. This can cause complete collapse of the nearby lung and can push the heart and major blood vessels to the other side of the chest. This movement, called a mediastinal shift, can cause a life-threatening drop in blood pressure. Tension pneumothorax most commonly occurs in people with penetrating chest injuries. It also occurs in people on ventilators or those who have undergone cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

About 9 of every 100,000 people each year have a lung collapse.

What is a hole in the tyre as compared to five holes in the lungs? =( =(
