I saw W online the other day... I duno y, but it always seem so coincidental that whenever I need come comfort or words of advice, W will pop out all of a sudden. ha... that was my initial impression of W when we were in jc. W was suppose to be from the Science stream when W changed and join the Arts stream, and suddenly just appeared in my class one day. Funny... some ppl think W is weird.. coz we just simply can't understand W's behaviour and actions. But still, we became friends, and even closer friends after we left jc. Actually, W is just being nice, W is always nice to everybody... (or else i thought so), haaha...
My mom & youngest aunt, even 2nd aunt herself is understanding to tell me to focus and concentrate on my exam preparation. Ya.. I do know my priorities... but I can't help feeling a little upset when I know I can't do much to help sharing their burden and worry. Ya, even if i'm free, i might not be able to offer much help either... coz i'm not god.. which sometimes i wish i was. Hopefully I'll be able to help out after my exams...
Heard tt 2nd aunt has started on her therapy yesterday, and she seemed to be in gd spirits and having a gd appetite. She had tomyam noodle for supper last nite... glad to hear tt. Today is her birthday, i wish she'll get well soon and be brave to fight against her sickness. We're quite a close nitted family... (or else I thought so)... =)
yawnz... sleeping is never enough for me. I took a nap the other day from 6 to 8pm and woke up feeling superb tired and lazy. Gramma was saying 'y don't u sleep longer so u won't feel so tired, and then u can concentrate better when ur studying?' hmmm... it does makes sense.. but!! How many hours are considered enough? Duhz... I'm someone who can sleep 12hrs straight and wake up still feeling tired. HHAAAHAH!!! Gd gracious... lolz

Things i want and wish:
1)score well for exams
2)be slimmer... faintz, i wish i won't outgrow my suit i bought for my future interviews
3)2nd aunt to be cured quickly and leave the dreadful hospital
4)holidays!!... my alisan-de-gu-niang
5)get a interesting job, work with fantastic and nice ppl and with a reasonable pay =)
6)catch up with all my frenz... sec, jc, temp job and uni mates! whr's the fun tt is missing? waiting to be found at the lost-n-found?
7)live happily ever after... (*sniggles)
Exams exams exams... I really hate it!! Why can't we go to sch without having exams and tests? Do exams really examine what we've learnt in sch? Or does it examine how much we can memorise and remember instead?
I'd rather live a life that all I need to do is to hunt for my own and family's food and live a life with no worries. Why doesn't anyone feel that we have to live a life worrying abt stuff in every stage of our life? Like when we're in pri to uni.. we have to worry abt exams, tests and sch. Then as we step into the society to work, we have to worry abt our pay, family, expenses. And as we grow even older, we have to worry abt ourselves, family, grandchildren... blah blah. Life is full of worries. Haaha, so thats why we have desserts 'tien ping' sold everywhere to sweeten our life.. isn't it? But then if we were to overeat the sweet stuff, we'll be down with diabetise. What an irony... =(
Tml is grampa's 2nd yr anniversary... Really miss him alot. Sometimes i'm still quite convinced that everything just happened yesterday, or rather nothing has happened. I still remember the pain... the anguish we all felt, the mental torment we had to go through. 2 years has passed so quickly... I was in Econs revision class when it happened. haiz...
Most prob tml i'll be going to de temple to pray my maternal grandmother too... she has left us for almost half a yr already. Sometimes i really wonder if this is all real, if its really true, does it really exist.
I think life is very unpredictable... sometimes things just happen so suddenly like it hits u so hard and fast on ur face. U can't avoid it... neither can u choose to hide away from it. So what do we do? Face the problem? But what are the consequences? The problem may still be there...
arghh... what a problematic world. sheesh....

Well well well... mocks are already over. CAN U BELIEVE HOW FAST TIME FLIES??! Yucks... I gotta admit how much I hate it manz... gotta do all the shitty work, memorising, studying, reading... everything revolve around me nowadays is exams, study, exams and more studying! Yeah... I went down to the another doctor on Wed... He sounded quite professional, but the young lady at the clinic who does the dispense of the medicine didnt tell me anything abt the pills making me drowsy. So i spent my whole Thurs lying ard.. with open eyes but a blank mind. Lolz...
Soon... the finals will be here. And even sooner... we'll be on our way outta s'pore, to celebrate the end of our studying life.. and that marks the start and beginning of a whole new chpt in our lives.. and tt is... WORK!! Hopefully everything goes on smoothly...
I was clearing my emails when i came across a mail from friendster. Apparently W had sent me a msg... well... I was kinda surprised.. It was really a pleasant surprised. Hahaaha.. made me think tt befriending a person like him is kinda a blessing.. God gave us friends so we won't be lonely, so tt we have someone to share our ups and downs. And of coz... I noe.. I have more than 1 such gd friend. Hehhe...!
So everybody... who thinks he/she is my friend... I wana say a BIG thank u... Lets all work hard for this final exam.. and for those who are already working, hope u'll get a big fat bonus and those who are not spared from being stuck in the s'pore education system... All the best!! =)
I really hope I can do well and pass with a tiny weeny bit of 'flying colours'. Lolz... A once told me he has higher expectations and confidence in me more than himself.Hopefully I'll be able to prove him rite. haaha... funny.

Daddy and mummy with the pork seller. They seem to know the couple who was selling pork at the local mkt...

This is the supposedly 'old folks home'. haaha... The elderly men always gather here for a puff, to watch tv, or just to play chess... =)

These are the women from the family... so many huh? lolz...
5 daughter-in-laws and 2 daughters. Aiyoz.. so many.

Fire crackers!!! yeah... my cousin had a great deal of fun playing with different kind of fire crackers. Some how, I didnt have the enthusiasm like him. Perhaps I've really grown up??

A table of handsome guys... muaahaha... All of them call me their 'gu gu' which means aunt. ! of them really looked like a HK actor. They are all young and promising... 2 already in uni, 1 in jc and 1 in sec sch.

This is the temple we went to pray. It drizzled the whole day, making the temperature to drop to almost 15degrees. And mind u, 15degrees there is so much different from the 15degrees your aircon can go. It is so much cooler! I had to wear 4 layers to keep myself warm enough.

No la, this is not Great wall of China... I just posed for fun coz my mom said the red lanterns look pretty... faintz... haahaha.

EEkks!! Help I forgot to close the door!! haaha... faintz
Can't u see I still had my pants on? duhz...
My mom had a hard time controlling her laughter and taking this picture for me. Lolz.. We went to this porcelain gallery to take alook at what China make out of the porcelain they got.

Actually the streets in China reminded me of those in HK. they look similar aint they? Only that the streets in China have many motorcars parked outside the shops... they just don't care.
Note: they lurv to sound their honk.

We reached Guang Zhou at abt 3pm.. and booked a van immediately to bring us to Shan Tou. But quite unfortunately, the drivers didn't exactly know where the village was... so by the time we realy reached our final destination, it was already 10.10pm.. we didn't even had our dinner!! But our relatives immediately prepared some food for us.. much to my horror, they put lamb meat into the steamboat.. and hence everything tasted weird. So I swallowed a few fishballs and quickly drank the bowl of plain porridge.

This picture was taken when we stopped midway at Shan-Wei. The journey from Guang Zhou to Shan Wei took ard 3hrs. Faintz... My butt really hurts. Lolz..
And I was quite tired so I decided to get down the van and take some pictures. i was the camera lady for the whole trip.

This is for self entertainment purpose. Hahhaz... u can ignore this photo.

This is my irritating, yet adorable cousin. He likes to hug me.. duno y, perhaps becoz I'm very hugable like a bear... Trhoughout the trip he keeps yelling for me "Emily jiejie! Emily jiejie!' Sometimes can't tahan him. Sometimes he glares at me with his superb big eyes.. sometimes he like to make funny faces at me. See...! He even stole my snoopy pillow. =(
He is also superb duperb vain pot. Likes to pose for the camera... tsk tsk tsk.

This is the place we pray.. its called 'Ci Tang'. I duno what u call this in English...Ancestral hall?? Think they've renovated this place.. coz it looks quite new.

Do they look alike? Of coz la... They're siblings mah! My big aunt is now staying in China, with 5 sons and 2 daughters. Lucky aint she?
From left to rite: my uncle, my mom, 2nd aunt and big aunt
So while resting today, I went back to youtube.com to check if they have upload the 2 final episode of 'It started with a kiss' Taiwan drama series. And they did!! I really tihink its a nice show... like those u watch on tv. This show was aired on tv once many yrs ago in Jap version...
This is the finale of the show, when the guy realised he can't hide his feelings and to marry another gal just to save his dad's company.
I like the ending... and I think it is quite cute and funny. Hahha.
Enjoy!!
Sunday, February 12, 2006
Well, well... I think I've been in constant attention and figure of the discussions amongst the gals.. I think the reason for them to nag is becoz V day is ard the corner. Sorry I've gota use the word 'nag' coz u gals really can be longwinded at times. But thanx.. I'm appreciative of ur love, care and attention. Thanx gals!
Anyway, I'll be away from town starting frm this coming wed till nxt mon.. coz i'll be going on a short tripto China. Supposedly to attend my uncle's wedding.... BUT! they've postponed it..and we've already bought the air tickets. So now instead of going to Guang Zhou, we're going to Shan Tou.. My ah gong's hometown. Cool huh? I've never been thr...and this will be my virgin trip thr.. and 1st time i'll be seeing my relatives who speak Teo Chew..
Teo Chew is a language I find difficult to master since young... My late ah ma used to luff at my silliness... having to greet her 'happy chi new yr' at her birthday.. and greeting 'happy birthday' when it is during the new yr. Haaha... I thought I've always got it rite, coz I'll practise on the way to her house in daddy's car. Nevermind abt getting it wrong in the future.. haiz, coz I won't get to greet her again.
And time really flies... it'll be prelims in 2 wks time.. and den finals will come greeting us! arghh... stress stress....!!
Lastly, Happy Valentine's Day to all my frenz who are attached.. and those who are not, don't worry.. V day is also known as friendship day. So just enjoy this day with ur gd pals.. it's been a while since u all last catch up rite? hehhe...
Friday, February 03, 2006
I wonder what is everyone thinking of nowadays.. is it coz V day is coming soon or what? They seem very keen to ask me to get myself a partner. FAINTZ... even my mom also does that. TIAN AHH...!!! Recently, one of my gf got attached.. and that prompted them toask when am I gona be like them. Why? I'm happily enjoying my freedom being single... I suppose thr are pros and cons abt being single and being attached. So why not let me enjoy my singlehood? Let me clarify myself.. I dont spend my every V day alone. V day is also friendship day! So its the time we 3 meet up and enjoy our yaya sistahood. lolz...
My mom just told me her colleague (aunt Jas) saw the photos we took in Korea.. and she commented I look like a 'fu puo' - meaning rich lady in translation. FAINTZ... and this aunt Jas happened to be from the women'sassociation or some sort of thingy. I had a gd laugh over it manz... funny.
Well, everything goes down to 'fate' rite? If things are meant to come, it'll come... But I really appreciate my gfs fussing over me. thanx ah...! but yet, no thanx... haaha.
Happy Chinese new yr everyone!
cheers! =)

Life is just so fragile... I have never thought of how I shld go abt living my life until grampa's death... his death sort of shook me up from my dreams. Until now when my wai po also left me last yr, then I only realised that how much isit I cherished those who lived with me.. My gramma is 90/91 yrs old this yr... Thus, I'm always convincing myself she's gona lived for many yrs since she is still quite fit now. But den, the death of 4th granduncle has proven me quite wrong. 4th granduncle had been known for his gd health... he's always been travelling almost every yr back to his home town Guang Zhou to celebrate Chinese New Yr. Only recently he has been admitted hospital several times for his heart problems. But from what I heard during the funeral, my 4th granduncle was still joking happily with his grandson on that very fateful morning. And it was during the late evening that he suddenly felt unwell... the ambulance came only 30mins later, and he passed away on the way to the hospital.. they couldn't revive him.
Looking at him... it reminded us of my late grampa. 4th granduncle really somehow or another, looked like grampa. Yes, there is no doubt they were brothers... but 4th granduncle somewhat didnt look like himself... but like grampa! Maybe we're just letting our imaginations run wild... but the resemblance was uncanny.
U know, sometimes this kinda stuff is just so unexplanable... I just don't know how to go abt explaning it.
Before I could leave my hse yesterday to head to sch, daddy told me my mom's god brother passed away too. I really hate to receive such news... especially when its near my exam time, be it just the prilims or the final exam. I really hate it... This is the father of my cousin who just got married recently. She was the one who had her marriage held at Fullerton... See... how brittle is life. Heard from mom that he passed away from heart problems too. And the sad part was his heart problems hasn't been a problem for many yrs already, and it just acted up like that all of a sudden.
I was told my cousin was hoping mad, jumping and crying... scolding those who were trying to convince her that her father has passed away. I think its really hard on her family. My this uncle has only 1 daughter... and she only just got married. And the worse of all... she's only in her late twenties... How bad can u imagine its for her?
I'm always thinking how whld react if I were to be in ppl's shoes... I don't have any sister... and usually for this kinda stuff, guys don't always show how sad they are on the outside. they'll only feel very sad on the inside.
I don't want to live my life full of regrets... sometimes there are just somethings I can't let go.. Nevermind that I can put it aside for moments that I am happy... But whenever I'm sad or simply just stressed, these memories just resurfaced very quickly...
I think I ain't the only person who feel this way... but yet sometimes I feel that I am the only perosn who feel this way. How weird...

I've looked through all the photos I took in Korea and wondered why I look so ugly in many of them.. sianz. Lolz.. I think I still look ok at the airport.. But as days passed, I look iglier and uglier. Of coz u all will disagree with me.. tts becoz I refused to upload those photos with me looking ugly in them. hahha...

1 person 1luggage... so in total there were 3...

Hey ppl... wat does these 2 statue remind u off? The tour guide told us the folks over at Jeju Island touch these 2 statues when a woman in their home is pregnant. So indeed they want the woman to give birth to a son...If I didnt remember wrongly by touching the statue on the rite represent that u want your future son to be gd in his studies... i.e a scholar, and the statue on the left represent that u want your future son to be gd in other areas like i.e to be a policeman, a civil defence officer. Aiya.. I duno how to explain la..!

These are trees as u can see... they look like autumn leaves and dried flowers. Beautiful aren't they? I can consider going to these countries with 4 season during autumn, spring and summer. Frankly speaking, spending a wk over at korea during their winter season left me feeling kinda blue. Mood swing??

I took a picture of this carasoul at Lotte World. I really think it is beautiful... (I'm jealous of Hui's present!! -_- ) Anyway, I didnt had a chance to sit this...we weren't given enough time..no time... no time la...!!

We stayed in this hotel on the very last nitw.. I lurv their toilet! So big!!! The toilet only has 2 doors to keep it closed and mind u, there is still a gap inbtw the toilet doors even when u close it shut. haaha...

And on the left hand side of the toilet is a bath tub... But pity I didnt shower in there. lolz...

On the rite side of the toilet is the toilet seat and also a shower stand. Cool huh? okies la, I'm always amazed and fascinated by big toilets. Lolz.. Don't think I can tell u all which hotel is this, but I can tell u personally la. A hint... it starts with a letter 'M'..... money?? Lolz.
Sunday, January 08, 2006

Yes.. I was trying very hard to open my eyes. But the sun was shining in my direction, the relfection from the snow also made it hard for me to open my small eyes. -_- haahaha...
Behind me was the steeper slopes meant for the pro-er skiiers and snowboarders. They're all so darn cool manz!

Hows me in my ski suit? I look pro rite? Lolz...
Tts my mom, me and Ar.

This picture was taken in a stidio where we also learned to make kimchi. I was at 1st given a pink dress, but becoz i had too many layers of clothing, i couldn't arms couldn't quite fit into it. So in the end i had to take away my wool sweater. But this red and green one looks nice ya? But I duno why we were asked to wear the hat... I don't rem the actress in Da Chang Jin wearing one. hehhe...

Sorry Je... I really didn't see any shops selling these tradtional costumes. This studio only rent their costumes, they don't sell it. The places they brought us to all sold winter wear...
How do I look? U know.. the funny part abt the aunties in our tour grp is that they all thought I was around 16/17 yrs of age. Do I really look tt young? 1 auntie tot I was in sec 4! While the other one tot I was in poly... faintzz..

My mom and I are now standin infront of the Korean presidential house. The security is very tight. We were told we can only use cameras, no video filming was allowed.
Look at the picture, can u see 2 big protruding eyes on the rite side of the mountain at the back?

We are standing on a bridge at Lotte World... Beautiful isin't?

LOOK LOOK!!! Its snowing!! Lolz... Look carefully and u can see the snow flakes on our head. Luckily for us, it started snowing on the very last day when we were due to return to S'pore. I looked a little pale in this picture coz I wasn't feeling very well...puked in the morning after drinking the soya bean milk. Aint Sh's eyes big? Haaha... Bro..ur really lucky!! =)

I didnt realise it started snowing until the kids in the bus were screaming their heads off. Coz i was resting on the bus after taking the vomit and panadols. At 1st when i stared out of the window... I really tot it was raining. The snow flakes became waterdroplets once it touched the bus windows. I went down the bus to take a better look. Can u see the snowflakes around me?? =)

Now presenting the long awaited photos of my Korea trip.. TADAAA!!!
We took this picture near the sea as u can see.. It was freaking cold, and the sea breeze made things worse.. the breeze blew straight into our faces. Guess how many layers I was wearing?? Lolz...
Tts me, Aaron, mom and bro's gf (Shumei)..
Hahha.. I looked a little dishevelled in this picture rite? Superb ugly... But I loved the background. Temperature hit a minimum of -8degrees in the nite, can't help but to look like this. Besides... I didn't slap on powder on my face.. which i kinda regretted. It may look nicer.. But in winter time, it is too dry to put powder coz the powder may dry up and cake on the face. =(
I guess it used to be a waterfall in the background, but the it froze during winter time.. hence explaining the frozen water on the rocks. BbRrr... freezing!!
This picture was taken on the day we went skiing at nxt to Vivaldi Ski resort (tts whr we were stayed). It is snow u see on our rite hand side and at the back is mountains. Pretty isin't? But the temperature forced us to put on our winter caps, which i tot it made me look silly. It looked great on Sh, Ar and mom.
I pursuaded my elder bro alvin totake this picture for me. I was very 'bu fu qi' coz I was too clumsy.. couldn't climb onto this big heap of snow. They were laughing at me, mom and Sh tried giving me a helping hand, but I still slipped and fell so many times until i gave up. Lolz... Pls pardon the reflecting badge on the wind breaker.

1)it was darn cold... esp the day before it snowed.. it was practically FREEZING!
2)my younger bro keep irritating me, and I also quarrelled with my elder bro over some petty little things =(
3)on the very day tt we were suppose to fly back to s'pore, I puke in the morning.. haizz...
4)we had to board the plane 4 times within 8 days of the trip..and this really made me superb tiring
5)everything was very rush..we had to wake up at 5+/6am (s'pore time) almost everyday
6)despite having the ticket tt allowed us to each enjoy 5 rides at the theme parks, we weren't given enough time to sit all 5!
7)the queues at the theme parks were so long.. despite the weather.. snorezz
8)we had pork most of the lunch and dinners.. and I'm quite sick of meat now, pls don't ask me to eat red meat!
But despite all these stupid little things tt made me sulk and frown.. I still did enjoy little tiny whiney parts of the journey.. like:
1)getting to watch movies on board the plane like Mr Bean, Must love dogs, Fantastic 4, The Interpreter..blah blah
2)we went to spa valley.. (I did a full body scrub, it was suppose to be a little painful, but I ended giggling and trying my best to stifle my laughter.. it was darn itchy..
3)my bros, my mom and bro's gf decided to go for the ride at Lotte World called 'Gyro Swing'.. it was superb fun... felt like I was gona thrown into the ice cold river.. for another moment, I tot I was jumping off the building. Hahha.. exciting isin't?
4)I get to eat ice cream almost everyday for the past 8 days there... it was shiok to eat ice cream in the cold weather
5)trying my best to speak Korean so as to impress the aunties there.. to gimme further discount. hahha
6)Oh ya, for the spa valley thingy, I also get to experience a different kind of spa.. having soak my body in hot water, while the top part is exposed to open cold air..
8)the last day we stayed at korea's Marriott Hotel.. I think so far it was the best hotel with ultra big toilet.. Lolz
9)pretending to be Korean, but was stunned and confused when they speak korean to me... I'm lost!
Anyway... It was such a wonderful experience la. But I duno why, perhaps it was the cold weather tt made me long for home. I was kinda home sick... silly isin't it? =)
Now it is Korean speaking lesson time..Lesson no1:
1) Auntie = Ah-zhu-ma
2) uncle = Ah-zao-si
3) gal/young lady = Ah-ga-shi
4) expensive = bi-sai-yo
5) how much? = er-zhu-ma
5) yes = yeah
6) no = ah-ni
muaahahaa... anyway, the stuff there in korea was quite expensive.. due to different cultures I must say. To us S'poreans, We regard food as being more impt. But to the Koreans, they regard fashion how you dress) as being more impt. It represents how you carry yourself.. and how you want others to respect you. Hence, the Koreans always dress very nicely despite even having to go to the nearby family mart for an errand. And also... the Korean gals have superb fair and nice skin! *Jealous jealous* *admire admire* haizz...
I shall post my pictures once I can find the time.. and the energy.. Lolz.

Sunday, December 18, 2005
Went to sch this morning for Msm.. I thought this LP (Linear programming) topic is quite a challenge... its quite tough. And the though of having to miss class nxt wk.. really made me feel guilty and worried. Haizz...
After class H and me went to Orchard to catch a movie... Jin met up with us to watch it too! The movie we watched is called 'Perhaps, Love'. Yapz, its the new chinese movie co-starring 4 different actors and actress from the different countries. For example, Jacky Cheung is from HK, Zhou Xun is from China, Jin Cheng Wu is supposedly from taiwan/Japan, and the last actor, is from Korea (he also co-starred in Da Chang Jin). Regarding the latter, I thought he looked kinda familiar, but thought it cant be the guy acting in the Korea show.. but frenz confirmed he is the one!... Hahhaha. Anyway, this chinese movie (or rather muscial play) is nice, I did enjoyed myself while sitting in there for almost 2hrs. The gal is pretty, yet the guys, I think I can see their pores quite clearly. Lolz.. Must advise them to use toner. =X
And there is this newly open Gelartissimo (I think I've spelt it wrongly.. hehhe), it sells ice cream. And ppl i tell you, their mango and lychee flavoured ice cream is VERY NICE!! Though quite ex at $3.90 per scoop, and for 2 sccops is costs $5.30, but for 3 scoops is costs $6.50 (more worth the $) haahha!! Yapz.. and...!! Pls don't try the banana flavoured one.. Personally, I don't quite like it. I do like eating those big Phillipino bananas.. but this one.. err.. I whld prefer to give it a miss. haahah! The chocolate flavoured ice cream is also nice too...! Yummy!!
Yapz, time really flies... I'll be leaving for Korea this coming friday (no wonder my frenz didnt msg me abt this upcoming Christmas dinner they're planning). Lolz... I'm excited abt Christmas... Are You?? =)
Oh by the way, I was told my 8th granduncle's son (so i shld address him as my uncle even though he's just a few yrs older den me) is getting married. Gramma was chiding say his dad just passed away, how can like this.. so fast get married. Who noes... such villages in the China also practises shot gun marriage. Haaha.. I wana luff. Haizz... It isin't a thing to be proud of... =(. Anyay, I'm interested to accompany my dad to China.. Hmmm... But den hor, the wedding will take place during Feb lei.. Think it will clash with my prelims.. How ah? Lolz...
Wednesday, December 14, 2005
Came back home ard 3+pm and started wrapping my doror gifts for frenz, I didnt do it earlier got I didnt have enough of the wraping papers... Went to get them before i got my durian puffs. I didn't have time to eat my lunch and I can feel butterflies flying in my stomach. I was nervous and yet excited! Finally went to get dress ard 5pm, and while putting on some makeup to make myself look more presentable, Jin & Dot came in. Hahha.. we screamed and hugged.. and laughed at ourselves having act so silly infront of my dad. After they came, grps of frenz started to pile in too...
I have to apologise to my Jc band frenz, coz I think i've neglected them.. for I was busy running in and out of the house.. and also, I've neglected my bro's gf. So sorrie manz... I didnt mean to... But i wasn't thinking coherently that nite too! But nevertheless, everything was fun!!

-2 bags: 1 from roxy and 1 from the chicken brand
-3 necklaces: 1 is a red cat, 2 from SK (given by my youngest aunt n bro's gf)
-3 watches: 1 from Fossil, 1 from Quartz and 1 from Swatch
-Origins set: consisting of a scrub cleanser, 1 nitecream mask, and 1 pimple cure
-2 flowers: 1 bouquet from Sim frenz and 1 frm B & his gf
-1 bracelet frm Ad (just got it todae during breaktime in sch)
-1 pair of crown earrings
-1 pink shirt

Yapz.. and i was wondering how come no one gave me stuffs like snowglobes and muscial box... haizz, perhaps I shld have told my frenz i wanted tt so they can buy me. I like those snowglobes from Precious thoughts becoz it can turn while the music from underneath plays. And musical box have nice music too... and with a pretty ballerina dancing on it. Pretty!! =)
Anyway, thank u to all my frenz who came.. and to Jin and dot for helping me decorate the house.. its beautiful... Too bad I didn't have a red carpet hor.. or else it'll look more grand rite? muaahaha..
The pictures at my bdae celebration is mostly ready, cept those from Meng's camera... Can some1 tell me how i can post it online mah? I'm an IT idiot if you still duno... Lolz.
Have been feeling so restless and tired these few days... I'm 21 now, can go for RA shows already. heehehe! Ad was saying how come I'm so naggy now... old le mah, of coz. I receive a bracelet from him todae in sch.. haaha. Becoz of him i walked in and out of the class a few times...The bracelet has colourful glass beads, quite pretty.
Thanx for all the presents u all gave me.. it is so memorable...!
I didnt cry on that day too... think i wasn't in the rite mind the whole day... I only stared briefly at grampa's alter when I placed the cake infront of it. Haizz... Gramma nearly didnt want to take a picture with me, but luckily I had my aunts trying to convince her. Think she looked happy in the photos... =)
zzz....

I don't know how I would react tml.. whld I be smiling and giggling happily, or whld i feel somewhat sad. I whld really lurv to take a happy family photo... but with grampa gone, I can't imagine how I'm supposedly to feel happy tml. Ya, i assure myself he and ah ma will be able to see me..., to share my joy and happiness. To see their little cry baby grow up to be a real lady, entering adulthood. But I whld really lurv to share my joy with them... The other day i was thinking of them on the way home and I nearly tripped over and fell. I bought sweet potato soup dessert for my gramma, I thought she'll like to have sth sweet after lunch. Hahha... If only I knew how to assure them I'm old enough to think for myself...
I think i'm feeling this way coz I just heard my 4th granduncle being hospitalised. Haizz... After grampa and the recent death of 8th granduncle, 4th granduncle is the only one left in this wolrd. All his brothers have gone...leaving him quite lonely. Hope he'll recover soon... Gramma grew a little paranoid after receiving the phonecall and needed daddy to bring her to the hospital to visit granduncle. He has been always in gd health.. but I think his age is catching up on him.. Lets pray that he'll recover soon k.. heard tt his heart has been giving him some problems. Grampa, too, had heart problems... =(
Anyway, I've done everything by myself.. from catering the buffet, to ordering the cake. hahha.. aint i independent?? Lolz... tml i'll be skipping class, and i'm feeling guilty now. But I'm feeling kinda lazy... and I think it'll be betta to i can go to the mkt with my parents tml. So i can help to carry the heavy stuff and also to buy the stuff i need. Excuses... excuses!!!
Bought the wrapping paper today... but i think it isin't enough to wrap the sweets! Gave up after a few attempts. Daddy was nagging as I was messing the whole table with my mountain of sweets. He told me I betta get ready for tml.. don't wait till last minute and finally keeping the sweets all for myself. muaahaahaha!! so funny!!
Happy birthday to myself... haizz... feeling like a 60 yr old lady already. Tian ahh...!

Anway, went for cousin's wedding on Monday at Fullerton One... the ballroom was just a semi-circle... kinda small. The bride i thought was pretty, and her body looked darn bodylicious.. Yeah... she's dark and slim.. with the correct measurement in every curve she has got. Lolz... And she looked really very pretty when she wore the red cheong sum with gold trimmings.. haahaha. Heard tt the groom was 2 yrs younger den her.. hmm... that explains why he looked this young.. and he is also quite fair, quite the opposite from my cousin. haahaha. The dinner started as late as 9pm! And Aaron fell asleep on daddy's lap... haaha... and the dinner ended at 11.30pm.. faintz... so by the time we reached home, it was already 12pm.. tian ahh...
Yesterday went shopping with H and Je... They went shopping with just 1 motive: to get me a decent dress. Even Fg said i shld wear a dress or sth, unlike my usual dressing to sch. Hey! I don't think I look chou Loh when i always wear jeans lei.. I'm just being myself wat. I don't go to sch for a fashion show... I feel so comfortable in jeans, shirts and 3 quarters. Lolz... ya la, I admit I'm kinda tom-boyish.. but I've been like this since young. I still remember I used to lurv wearing dress when i was Pri3 and younger. But ever since i grew older, my likings for dresses and skirt started to fade... and I didn't understand why my mom had to force me to wear a skirt sometimes. There was once, during Chinese New Yr, she insisted i wear a skirt... and i refused. Coz I didn't understand why i shld comply to her, and it is me who will be wearing a skirt, not her ya. Why shld she control how and wat I wear? At least I'm not having superb short hair and look like a boy rite? Anyway, she refused to let me step out of the hse with me in jeans... so my dad had to persuade me to listen to her, and the whole day i was sulking wearing my skirt. Lolz...
But I've grown up now more feminine la... I still wear skirt, but just on more important occasions like Chi New Yr, wedding dinners... Hence for frenz who think tt I always wear shorts and pants, you are wrong man.. haaha, I shal also prove you wrong this coming sat.
Anyway... despite walking for more than 6 hrs.. I still didnt buy a dress/skirt... haaha.. nvm la, I shall wear the1 I have in my cupboard.. I only wore it once... Lolz.

YIPPEEEE!! I'm so happy! Coz it is snowing over at Korea already... muaahaahahaa... I'm in a holiday, festive, Christmas mood!! Lolz... so happy wor... I'm always dreaming how whld it be like snowing.
I've finally finished writting out my Icp essay, after so many days of draggin here and there. Tml will only be a half day sch.. coz my 2nd half of class is cancelled, luckily J reminded me. haaha... phewww
Tml's my cousin's wedding... how weird ah, to be wed on a Mondae.. hmm.. But I'll still be there to polish up the food. It'll be held at Fullerton. So must dress nicely... lolz.
I lurv December! tts why i chose to come out of mummy's stomach only in December. haahaha... silly me! =)
Friday, December 02, 2005
Stayed at home the whole day, woke up late at ard 2+pm... read newspaper and tried to so my icp essay. But despite having all the time in the world, I only wrote 3 pharagraphs. Thus, it is not completed yet! arghhh....!!
Helped gramma to rub her back wid the medicated oil. She told me to use de cotton wool, so my hand will not kana the oil. How ridiculours to use the cotton wool rite? So i used my hand instead... And my whole palm stink of the medicated oil now... Lolz. Maybe it'll help the blood in my rite palm to flow better with the help of the medicated oil.
I had to withstand not washing my hair today... Didn't dare to go anyway todae. Phew.. luckily I can finally wash it tml. Hurray...! Tml it'll be as gd as new hair again... laalalalla =)

The hairdresser who helped me to 'iron' my hair was a different auntie from the one who cut my hair. I trust the auntie who cut my hair more.. coz usually its been done by her. Anway, this auntie who 'iron' my hair, also 'ironed' my scalp too!... And she didn't do it once... but at least 3 times!! Tian ahh... I was quite afraid tt she might do it a few times... hence instead of reading the newspaper i had in my hand, i stopped to stare at her reflection in the mirror so as to remind her to concentrate on my hair, rather den to turn and look at others when still holding tt iron in her hand! Scary man....!!
Was online when jin told me to look at this guy's blog - http://sky.prohosting.com/gssq/writings/girl.htm
I thought was he said was very true... I mean, we're gals rite, so of coz we're different from guys. Woman are from venus and men are from mars, haven u heard of this before?? Anyway, yapz, I myself had scored many on this list... Lolz... So gals, have fun reading this, and guys, u may have a gd laugh over it.
And as for the previous entry, I did some research.. and according to my frenz, its better to have a higher standard, den someone who has a lower standard, and gets cheated by guys often. muaahaha... but anway, I still don't admit I have such high standards. Believe it or not, its up to individual. Cheers! hahha...

From close frenz to frenz who are not that close to me, they seem to have this impression that I have high expectations of my nxt bf-to-be. I'm not sure if i've been giving such impression, but certainly, my expectations aint tt high either. Of coz there are certain expectations (everyone does this too...!). I'm just puzzled by frenz who have told me this... Tian ahh....!!
Was talking to Ad the othe day, asked if he wana come to my bdae party... he asked if its an official invitation, or I'm just asking for the sake of asking. Of coz its an official invitation! But I'm asking him in such a unofficial way coz I'm afraid he may feel awkward coz of being alone at the party. So instead he asked if he can not go.. or rather instead, we go out and have dinner some other day. Oh yeah, becoz of this, i have my reservations... don't ask why, but i always have such reservations. (I told u, i'm just plain weird.. believe me k?) Not tt i don't wana go and claim my present frm him, but... I just can't explain. anyway, he does owe me a present and... for that matter, 2 dinners! Hence I still can't decide or not whether to go... Hmm... he said he thought I'll be more dependent (emotionally) since I'm turning 21 soon. Hey!! It is not a problem of turning 21 soon, or growing up to become a more mature adult. But its just my way of thinking that sets me apart frm some others... My beliefs, thinkings, and fear may change overtime, but certainly, the change whld not be such a big difference!
Arrghhh...I'm also sometimes bewildered over my own decisions and feelings. Ya, according to ESAP, we sometimes will qns our own schemas and such schemas may change overtime under different situations and environment. Lolz... Do i sound professional enuff? hahha!
Anyway, I wana tell those who are coming to my bdae party, a big thank U for all the trouble coming down. And for those who are not coming, due to different reasons... I'm disappointed. I may not say it directly in ur face, but I do feel disappointed. BUT....! A big present may turn my disappointment into happiness. haahaha...

Happy 21st Birthday Girls!! May we stay like this forever till we're old...
I'm now busy with my own birthday preparation. Today settled down to have time to check my mails, and saw the proposal Gallery Hotel came out with. I say it really sounds like a wonderful... fantasy birthday celebration. But its quite expensive i must say. I was deciding to celebrate at home when daddy say it wouldn't have the 'feel' of going to a chalet already. Thus, i spend my evening trying to search for available chalets. But most were fully booked, otherwise, the dates aint rite.
Was abt to go to bed when he saw the proposal on my computer, and he asked what was that. I told him, and his reply really surprised me! Daddy told me if it is nice, he is fine with it. wWwwooowWW!! Of coz i whld really lurv the idea of celebrating it at a nice and fanciful poolside. But I don't think its worth the $.. I'll rather spend the $ on food. Have nicer food and stuff... See..... I'm not as spendthrift as some ppl may think of me.
I was thinking of splitting up the celebration into 2 days, the actual day with my frenz and the nxt day with my family. But den... it'll be weird mah. How how how?! haiyoz... headache lei. It maybe because of my constant nagging and irritating grumblings that led my dad to agree with the hotel proposal. But I'm not sure, He doesn't seem to like the idea of celebrating at home. Tian ahhh!!!
Okies, i shld start writing my wishlist rite? Lolz... Just don't buy too bimbotic stuff can already. I'm not used to it.. that is just not me.
For watches: I chld get use to 1 though i don't have the habit of wearing them. I prefer square of rectangular surfaces and those with thick straps. Coz i have quite a big wrist.... Lolz
For wallets: I'm still using my red LV wallet (pls don't ask me if its real or not)...
For bags: I prefer tote bags... But err.. maybe u shldn't buy me the chicken brand i always point to, i think I've changed my mind abt tt.
For perfumes: I have Dior me Dior me not, Ralph Lauren, Dkny Apple, Davidoff Woman, Elizabeth Arden Green tea and Lancome's Oui. --- Quite enuff for a person like me who seldom wears perfume, only when I remember or in the mood to do so. hehhe...
For soft toys: I do lurv soft toys especially teddy bears. But I do have loads of them at home already, so many to the extent I'm force to stuff them into the big plastic box. =(
As for other stuff... I'm still not sure yet. Coz I'm sure most of you shld know, sometimes when i buy something, i may not even use/wear it. hehhe.. so if you're not sure, feel free to ask me. =) Hopefully I'm doing you all a favour by typing out these stuff... But of coz i'll still like the thngs u all buy for me la...

Finally we went to have steamboat in the evening after studying a little... had fun there. Yummy yummy!!
Been staying at home these days to watch the 2nd box of Da Chang Jin... Ouuhh... So nice! So exciting! heehe... Poor gal, always framed by ppl... and close ones had all mostly passed away. The gd fighting against the bad. Of coz the gd will triumph in the end rite? Hahha.. but I'm not there yet.. still needa borow the 3rd box of vcds.
Sunday, November 13, 2005
Yesterday was Daddy's birthday.. Happy Birthday daddy!! I forgot to buy him a cake... coz me and Aaron were practically glued to the tv. Nope, ur wrong, we aint watching cartoons... but!.. we were watching this famous Korean drama palace show, Da Chang Jin, from the courtesy of whoever it was, who lent my mom the vcds... But they weren't a complete set!! Oh goodness me... I was still asking Aaron to put on the nxt vcd, when he said tt was the last disk! Lolz... Think mummy was a little paiseh to borrow the whole set all at once. This is quite an interesting Korean drama show. A little unlike frm those melancholy- drama- mamma- tear jerking- 3/4/5 lurv triangle stories. Think most of you must have more or less heard abt this drama. Looking forward to the nxt set... =)
Today wasn't a boring Saturday unlike wat Ay thought. He thought I had a boring and unevenful Sat, tts why my mood wasn't gd just now..No la, I'm just having mood swings, despite having bought 3 tops. hahha.. Jin called me when I was already on my way home. And i was kinda lost, not knowing how to get off the bus, and which or how i can get to Orchard. Luckily... Meng was on the same bus as me and told me thr's this bus 105 frm Toa Payoh tt I can take to Orchard... pheww...! Thanx Meng!
Went to the newly relocated Apple store at Wheelock to get Dot's bdae prez.. we bought her a shuffle. Really... November is a mth tt the bank can declare me bankrupt... 2 best frenz celebrating their bdae... and worse, their bdae is just a day difference. Tian ahh...
We went to have sushi after getting her the shuffle... and den proceeded to shop ard tt area. Went to Zara.. and bought 3 tops.. (shirts or rather). Ya, my maid gave me a perfect excuse to shop, coz duno wat she did to my pink shirt.. it was ruined! Seemed like it was bleached... heehe... But these 3 tops are still affordable la... We also went to Macafe and I had iced latte... it tasted so bitter!.. Know why? Coz we didn't know we had to add sugar in it ourselves.. but Jin's drink was perfectly fine... Totally opposite of mine. Hers was superb sweet! hahhahaha...
Den I suggested catching a movie... And Jin said we shld watch a more 'intellectual' movie.. and we ended up watching Oliver Twist. It was quite a nice movie... suitable for kids... which explains why we saw quite a handful of parents together with their kid in the cinema.. How intellectual it was... lolz... muaahahaa... I sat nxt to this caucasian kid, and was so shocked to see her holding a popcorn tub, and her dad was also holding onto another one too! I told Jin tt gal confirm can't finish.. but when the lights came back after the movie, i saw 2 empty popcorn tubs on the floor! Did she really finished all her popcorn? Or did her dad helped her polish the whole tub? hahha...
Tml going to chinatown's Yum Cha for dim sum. Its my 1st time there to this new restaurant... I lurv to yum cha.. coz you know why? I'm a true blue Cantonese... haahahaaa... nah.. tts crap only. lolz... Tml also going to Dot's bdae chalet... Tink i'm gona be tired on Monday again. Monday blues u call it. Yes I do have it... Its just another manic monday.... yawnz
Wednesday, November 09, 2005
Brought Sm to meet her last nite... He said she was pretty and looking very young... muaahhhaha! So happy for her. But maybe I shld be more tactful.. coz since I didn't like ppl to do such 'introducing' stuff, I shldn't also impose such ideas on others. But somehow, I just did it...haaha, =X She msged me this morning, at... 4 PLUS!! Just to say she didn't see how Sm looked. Hahha.. this gal.
Okies, I have new frenz tagged to my blog... New frenz doesn't mean frenz whom i just knew, but new ppl, new links to my blog. They're all my frenz... fun ones. Spending time with them made time passes quickly... and also helped me forget my troubles and worries. I now have less time to think of the unhappy stuff.
Daddy's birthday is this coming Friday. Talked to mummy and Aunt abt his present, they suggested A handphone whld be a better choice then a massage chair. Alrites den...hope he'll like the handphone we buy, he has been eyeing it.. since.. err... last yr? lolz.
laalalala... this is the elmo song!
Sunday, November 06, 2005
Went jogging in the evening... jogged 3 rounds around the estate... feeling shiok now after my shower. muaahaha...
yawnzz... Was listening to my ipod, when i came across this song.. it sounded so familiar! And guess? Actually fg was looking for this song.. tt time we heard this at 'This Fashion'. Andy Lau sang this in Cantonese, so I helped him to translate.. and guessed the title of the song. And now... I realli guessed it correctly!! It's called 'Qing shen de yi ju'.. So proud of my cantonese! Aisay... hehehe
Tml's Mondae... another long day in sch... snorezz...
Yesterdae met up with S and Jin.. we went shopping... I bought myself a **. Thought it costs $59.90.. but..!! I only became aware of the price until the cashier told me.. it costs $79.90!! tian ah...! Nearly jumped down the building.
Me -- handed the cashier $60
Cashier: Thank you, its $79.90
Me: Huh??!
Cashier: yours is the ** rite?
Me: ya...
Cashier: Ya its correct... $79.90
Me: oh... ok
Me -- handed the cashier another $10 note
Cashier: oh.. still short of another $10
Me: ^$#(!@... sorrie..
Me -- parted with my $10 sadly...
I left the counter feeling a little idiotic... Lolz.. blur queen lei! Felt so frustrated at myself.. shld have seen the price tag clearly. Must have mixed it up with the others. Faintz...
Friday, November 04, 2005
We played majong throughout the nite... watched a little of 'My Sassy Gal' when towards the end, the dvd somehow was unreadable in H's Apple Mac... Lolz.. Jn and A went out to help us buy tea and coffee, when they saw this coffee shop selling Bah Choh Mee... So the 6 of us ended up eating tt at ard 4+am... haahaha...Duno why we were all famished, coz earlier in the nite we had fried bee hoon H's mom bought. It was quite cosy, coz it was raining heavily outside, yet we were all so safe and sound in the hse.
I reached hm at ard 9.45am, and rushed off to my rm to get my clothes and head of to shower. Aaron was sleeping in my rm, with both the aircon, fan and radio switched on!! Aiya... waste electricity again!... So by 10.15am, I was done with my shower and also had my hair blowed dry.. Off to bed i went and shooed him away.. haaha. I woke up at ard 5.30pm this evening.. still feeling superb drowsy... Oh no! Must sleep early tonite or else i'll confirm miss tml's Msm class.
Thanx Hui! Really had a wonderful time at ur hse... Hope we didn't disturb ur family. Hehhe... Shld try this again.. so fun! Lolz... and thanx to J, A, S and Jn for joining in the fun... I really had so much fun despite the lack of sleep!! But nxt wk shld study more.. coz I feel like i'm falling way behind again. Hehhe =P
Met up wid H, S and J (my 3 sistas) after Sy went off to meet her sec sch frenz. They came with a motive of helping me to find a suitable dress for my birthday + wedding dinner. My cousin is getting married, yet i do not have a decent dress to wear to her weddings dinner, which will be helpd at Fullerton. Muaahahaa... I tried on a few dresses. The black one was quite cute.. but it didnt have my size, it was sold out already. Too bad.. =(
Happy Belated Deepavali and Selamat Hari Raya!
Sunday, October 30, 2005
Overall, the chalet was quite fun... and i was chaffeured home. So i didnt mind staying till so late.. =) And everyone is asking how am I gona celebrate my birthday. Haizz... headache manz. Can i just stay at home and sleep??
Yesterday, we went to sing at K ster, at Lucky Chinatown. I woke up with an itchy throat and started coughing... haizz.. therefore u could have guessed.. I sounded like a chicken... screeching. I couldn't hit the high notes.. and even for low notes, i was kinda choked by my own saliva. After my screeching session with them, we went to Little India's Muthu's Curry for dinner. The food there was great! Or perhaps coz we were all famished? Haahaa... Anyway, i like their sotong and fried fish... yummy! And the ladies were given a complimentary Henna drawing. I had mine done... I think it was quite nice, though it seems a little thick. Xy had trouble keeping her hand to herself, and ended up with stained hands.. Lolz. And we all though it looked shitty... muaahaha.
After which, we continued our trip down to the pasar malam opposite Mustafa. Hehhe...It was quite crowded. we also went to mustafa.. It's my 1st time there... So many ppl shopping for stuff.
Okies its time for my beauty sleep. Ta...!

emily, you're a Guardian Angel!
Chances are you've kicked around the idea of settling down on some shady lane with your honey and maybe even thought about having a kid or a couple of pets. Even if you've never cooked a pot roast or picked out fabric for curtains, we'll bet you've got solid nurturing instincts nestled within. That's why, when it comes to your partner, you're the Mother Teresa of romantic relationships. Doing little things like planning cool vacations and jotting a quick love note, tells your partner daily how much you care. This A+ quality not only makes you a compassionate lover, but also a trusted friend.Here's the rub: You're ready to give and give, but sometimes you might get resentful when your significant other doesn't return the favor. It can be difficult for you to let people fend for themselves, but try to focus on maintaining balance. Be sure to look out for number one, and try to indulge yourself as often as you indulge those you care about.
Hmm.. somehow.. i find it a little true. haahaha....
Guess wat time i woke up today? Without the help of the alarm clock, i woke up at 3pm! yeah.. i know im lazy. Thanx... haahaha. I didn't know why i'm so tired. I just felt so drowsy... Slack was what i did the whole day. Was suppose to go jogging, coz the weather was gd today. But i felt so lazy.. so tired.... So i stayed indoors and watch cartoon instead.
Gramma's going for her eye operation tml. I'm kinda worried. I asked if she needed anesthetic... but my dad didnt answer my qns. But thinking to myself.. of coz she needed that jab.. or else, how whld the doctor operate on her eye lids? If there is no anesthetic jab, then she'll blink, den the docs can't operate on her rite? But i'm worried abt the risk of taking that jab..I'm worried abt the side effects.. Coz gramma is already so old (mind u, she's 90), not sure if she can take it. I appreciated tt how this fren of mine told me not to worry abt it, tt the operation whld be fine. Thanx... kinda ease my fears... =)
I thought of accompany her to the hospital, together with my daddy, but i was told my aunt whld be there too. So gramma asked me to stay at hm to look after the maid. Snorezz... I hate doing tt. Lolz.. Maybe i can study a little i guess...
Anyway, i thought of explaining myself here. Just in case some ppl thought I'm suffering from some kinda depression, coz i seem to be always talking abt my late grampa and ah ma. Nope i'm not suffering from depression, but i am just oftenly reminded of them. This is because my grampa passed away last yr, when i was revising for my yr1 exam. It took me around a year to make myself not to always think of it.. but when my ah ma passed away this August...everything reappear again. That is why i'm always reminded of the sad events. Who whldn't lurv to be happy? I am... or i mean, i do. But not when i'm reminded of such events... I am happy to have such a caring family (minus the nagging,bickering) I do have quite interesting parents and siblings. And i have a grp of caring frenz.. whom i really appreciate. I thank everyone for playing a part in my life...even if its just a small part/role.
I don't mean to do the things i do.. like screaming or shouting at my parents, esp my dad and younger bro. Sometimes i'm just frustrated when they don't get me. I'm sorry.. but i just did it again. (No, i'm not singing Britney's song) Daddy just asked me why am i so angry, talking so loudly at him... ya, think i do flare very easily at my family. I guess i took things for granted. Have you ever thought of such things too? I told myself i must mellow down, and appreciate them more...For when I'm growing older each year, they're growing older on the other hand. haizz... this is gona be tough. In fact, nothing is easy.
I laid on bed yesterday nite, thinking of the experiences my frenz told me. One of them had lost her grandparents within the same year. Ya, i know its hard to accept the fact... That is why i'm too afraid to think of that... that grampa will take gramma with him,... that gramma will leave with grampa. I'm not sure how will i react to that. But i'm glad that she's still here. I can celebrate my 21st birthday with her around. And i really pray i can wear my graduation hat and take a picture with her. That's my main aim at this moment. So, i must work hard to pass my final year subjects. But somehow i feel i'm still quite slack even though having to meet up with frenz and to study together. Did i not put in effort? I feel that wat i've read comes in from one ear and out it comes out from another ear... Lolz. But i reassure myself its better than not touching the notes at all. Haahaha.. self assurance!
Somehow i feel more assured and more at ease each time after blogging. Coz i can pour out my sorrows without troubling anyone. No i don't need anyone to pity or feel sorry for me. I just need them to empathise with me... meaning i need them to understand and to think like me. Quite tough huh...Hmmm.
Time to sleep! yawnzz...

'Ring Ringg...'
Me: hello? J ah... wat isit?
J: hello... em ah, tell u ah, class is cancelled!
Faintz... i tot she was joking, but knowing her, don't tink she'll joke abt such stuff.. and its a weird time to joke too. Haiyoz! waste my time, effort, money and precious beauty sleep! Oh manz... My lecturer also cancelled his class yesterday... who knows? He also cancelled today's class... There was no notice at all! aAaarrggg.... Anyway, we proceeded to Mac to have our breakfast.. and later studying at Hans.. Den it started to rain heavily.... REAL heavily.. until our papers nearly flew away... We went off... thought of going into the library to find seats.. but there were none. So we thought of going back to the Mac opposite the lib.. BUT... it was flooded!! Half of the Mac was 'raining' too!! muaahaaahha... the Mac staffs were even using their brooms to push the rain water out of the outlet. And you have seen that for uself... we saw the rainwater from the 2nd lvl... flowing like a mini waterfall.. to lvl 1 of the Mac. Lolz.. how funny... But we managed to get back to Hans.. at least the rain got smaller. Pheewww....
I wonder why it rained the whole day today.. it was very cold... and somehow made me moody. Luckily i had frenz making funny and stupid jokes.. Somehow made my day! =) Duno wat who poke/ touch who's butt... and fond memories of childhood days... hhehehe...
Had dinner at a malay shop near Bugis... the food was ok... the rendang, though quite nice... was overflooded with red chilli oil! Goodness me...
Gave my mopm the bracelet i made for her.. She said its beautiful! yippe...! And she was surprised i made it myself.. yeah! Coz i've always been notorious within my family, for being clumsy.. like a cow in a china shop. haahaaa...But daddy was somewhat fussy abt my master piece. Without wearing his glasses, he could tell my bracelet was a little loose at 1 end! I didn't even see it... lolz. Aiya daddy... it's not even real pearl. Speaking as though its worth some hundred bucks.
I'm tired... feeling cold......Coz of the weather, and partly coz i switched on the aircon full blast just now. ha...
I'm afraid to stay up alone at nite, only to find myself tinking of the past... How weird...Haiz.. shall stop talking abt it..
Sunday, October 23, 2005
Actually life is very brittle.. for you'll know when your time is up. The last time i saw him was during last year's Chinese new year. Grampa was still around I remember... coz I even helped him to cut his nails, scratch his back, apply moisturiser and to help him to wear his new shirt my youngest aunt bought. My granduncle came from China, partly to visit his eldest brother (my grampa) and also partly for a holiday trip. My grampa's birthday falls on 1 week after the Lunar Chinese new year.. so that was the last chance the 3 brothers took a photo together... So now, only 4th granduncle is left. Same for him, his health is also deteriorating... It is sad to see your loved one slowly weakening, yet what you can do is limited. It is not beyond our means to do what is opposite of nature, except to try to make them feel better in this process of deterioration.
I think of grampa and ah ma now and den... It was raining last nite, and before it actually rained, i saw lightning... I remember how Grampa used to cover me with a blanket when i was young. Coz the sound of the thunder always scares me. How he used to shield me from mummy is wacking me with a cane in her hand... He is really my grampa in shiny armour, always there to protect me. He'll always be my beloved grampa...
As for ah ma, though I'm not as close to her as me to my grampa, i still love her. As i grew older, i became more mature. She too, finally saw the beauty in me... my heart.. She is always askin my mom not to scold me. haaha.. come to think of it, it is quite funny. She always praise me, saying I'm gd.. She didn't understand why my mom still keep scolding me.
Actually it is always in times of need, that you'll finally see they beauty in ppl... I mean, this is the time you'll know who treats you best, who is true to you...That is the reason why i do not like ppl who sweet talk..Perhaps that is the reason why I am more straight forward with my words and thoughts.. sometimes speaking without thinking of the consequences behind my words. Hence my Grampa will always be my role model... "Just do it" without complaining. All actions and no words...
Anyway, as we were discussing abt 8th ganduncle, my aunt was saying his wife sure will faint of grieve.. I also thought too.. coz his wife is soo thin. Actually, she led a very sad life. She's scrawny thin, dark... you can tell she has been a worker all her life, facing the harsh reality of life. haizz....

Nth much to do todae.. was listening to the radio, when i heard a familiar song. Reminds me of the days back at OCBC. it goes like this ...
"heyyYyy...hHhheyy BABY!! I wana knowwWwW... if u'll be my gal...!!" (repeat chorus)
That time we were doing our work, feeling so restless, and when this song was aired on the radio, Mr Mickey suggested we ask everyone in the office to dance with this song. haahaa... crazy guy. And he even demonstrated how to clap the hands.. and to dance around. MIss those days... wonder hows everyone. Haven't seen Mickey and Porykey in sch... ever since tt time we met up. Kinda miss everyone...I forgot to mentioned, Stitch called me one nite to ask me abt the Deepavali gathering. He'll be bringing his gf.. wel well. From what he has described, seem to me that this gal is one of a spitfire. I'd better stay my way clear of Stitch just in case there's any misunderstanding. muaahaha...
Spoke to Jin yesterday, think she's very stress up from work. She even broke down in office. Poor gal... Too bad I'm not there to proteact her liao. I used to be dot's and jin's armour... I have the tendency to protect my frenz if they are in trouble...But not now anymore.. coz they are out in the working society. Hopefully, they'll be used to the cruel endless no life working society.
yawnz...I'm sleepy. Oh! It's cartoon time! tata...

I think this was the very day gramma was truly happy... smiling away. I wished her happy birthday in cantonese rite after i washed up in the morning. I was glad to see her happy too!
Attended sch as usual on Monday... and my Esap class was in the afternoon. Felt so tired and sleepy... Moreover, the jokes weren't funny... and my lecturer was saying 'if you can't sense lurv, den u are senseless?' hmm... I was a little confused. Later, when he was half way through the lesson, he used chinese funeral as an example. I was feeling kinda uncomfortable.. troubled.. confused, and also tired. So i think i was frowning. Nearly wanted to go out of the class, but didn't coz i was also too lazy to walk out.. sianz. hui asked me why i'm giving such a sour face... isin't becoz of the example the lecturer gave? hmm... half half i guess. haizz... i can't understand why did the class gave stupid links to a funeral.. like eating curry chicken.. paper cars... and what not.

Boarded the bus... and was trying to sleep, when i notice a middle age lady and an old lady board the bus. When they found a seat, the middle age lady (i think she's de old lady's daughter), she sat inside, so leaving the old lady to sit outside. When I was about to drift into dreamland, I heard someone spoke quite loudly. And i open my eyes and saw the bus ticket conductor was trying to lift the old lady onto her seat. Apparantly, she had fallen off her seat. Her daughter doesn't seem interested when the conductor was trying to explain what happened to her mom. After which, she went back to sleep, so did the old lady. How can she be so... inconsiderate?! I mean, she should have let her mom sit inside rite? And she didn't even bother to help her mom back onto her seat.. so unfilial!
I hate/ detest/ loathe unfilial ppl... how can they be so ungrateful... Sometimes when i hear ppl leaving their parents in the old folks home, i feel so angry and sorry for them! For they have forgotten their parents were the ones who brought them into this world... and who raised them till this age.
I feel sad and jealous when i see how other grandparents dote on their grandchildren. I missed the days when we were still young, with no worries and troubles. I really missed the old days... I really feel like going back to those days. I always wonder how are grampa and ah ma doing up there. Are they happy? Can they see me? haizz...
I keep pondering over few issues... like:
1) Are you really happy when you are laughing? Or are you just amused by someone/ something at that very moment?
2) What is happiness? Being loved by someone?...Or Loving someone? Or just.....Trying to be yourself?
3) Do we really know what is love? Or just simply obsessed with the word 'Love'?
Can I just be ME at all situations and with different people around? I do think its true that some ppl do reaction and behave differently towards diff ppl and diff situations. But can I just be ME.. having the same behaviour any and everywhere?
Can someone pls tell me what I'm thinking? Sometimes I feel so confused.. so tired.

Am i not good with words, thats why ppl don't understand how i feel?
Or am I not good with actions, so I can't express myself clearly?
Hhmmm... okies, enuff said.
Well, well... yesterday went to Marina Square to catch 'Deuce Bigalo' with my uni frenz... It was quite a lame show. Though I was truly amused by certain parts of it... i was laughing happily when i felt there is silence beside me.. The main focus of the show.. as its title has suggested, revolves round the important organ of a male. haaha... Go guess what it is?
*Winks winks...*
Just came back from playing volleyball, soccer and captains' ball at Sentosa. Today's weather wasn't very good, unlike that in the afternoon. It started to drizzle.. but we still continued with our game. I learnt the actual way of serving the ball over.. but with a price to pay. The ball hit my right last finger's vein... and it ended blue black. Now that I've kept rubbing it, it became maroon. haizz... I actually complained of hand pain, but my partners doesnt seem to get what i mean, only a few times they helped me to serve the ball over. I have red 'poka dots' appearing on my right forearm too... not that others don't have it... but... Excuse me?? I'm still a GIRL!!
'Red poka dots' = Red veins appearing on the hand....= after effect of serving the ball.
But anyway, think the guys had a considerable number of injuries too! 1 accused me of trying to rob him of his manhood... and pushing me to the ground. My gf also accidentally kick me with her knee.. haaha.. But i know it was done unintentionally la. But they also played quite rough... Trying to pull me when i was trying to grab the ball. So inturn, i also tried to push them and step on their foot. haahaha....
I wore a backless top today, thought i can tan my back to a perfect brown... Yes i do know its ugly..... stop harping on it. Its my back... not yours!!
I'm sleepy... there's Msm class tml. yawnz...

den watched tv, and saw J on tv... my mom said i shld join the programme coz that will help me to loose weight faster and it'll be more effective with the help of professionals! tian ahh....
Yesterday went to Bras Brasha's Mac to study... haaha, so hardworking yea? But I only managed to practise my MM.. and did some copying of my ICP (coz i lost my study guide.. haizz). Had dinner at Agisan Ramen.. quite nice ah, but it was very filling and i thought that their noodles was a little hard.. perhaps they shld have left it a little longer in the pot.. laalala.. den we went to the arcade at Bugis tp play CS. muaahahaa... think i'm getting hooked onto it liao. tsk tsk tsk...
This Sunday is gramma's birthday.. she'll be hmm.. 90 or isit 91 years old? Hhmm...

yawnz...tml's saturday! =)
we went to Mac for lunch (oh no! how sinful again... there goes all my hardwork..haiz..) and chatted happily there. I was really tired, eyes closing... but they pursuaded me to join them at Katong to play Counter Strike.. hahha. So in the end we 5 ended up there..playing happily, when a guy approached us to see if we want to play the game with them. And how dare they... I didn't even have the time to change my weapon and 'Bang!!' I'm shot dead already... didnt even have the time and space to run away. My godness me...!! So after a few rounds, i gave up, stood thr and waited them to shoot me, rather den wasting my $ to buy weapons. In the end, we 5 played together again...so fun! Coz i finally managed to gun down a few of them by my own..hahha! hurray....!
We went down to level 1 to have our dinner, i ate tang hoon... so healthy rite? hehhe...
So tired.. I still have Msm class tml.. yawnz. Okies, i'm heading to bed now..so tired. nites!

After dinner, i went down to Bata to look for my mom and Aaron, coz he needed to get a pair of new sch shoes. Den i saw a pair of shoes which i took liking to it. But they didnt have size for the pink one, so i thought of asking the salesgal to check which outlet has it. But after much consideration, and asking my gramma, daddy, mummy and Aaron which is nicer, the blue or the pink one, i decided to get the blue one. Afterall, mummy is paying for it rite?? hahha... jian hor? lolz.. but dun be like this la... its been some time since mummy has bought me stuff like this.
I wore the new shoes to sch on Monday, only leaving me with blisters on both heels! And i was going round to ask frenz for plasters.. hehhe. nice shoes...! makes me... look and feel more girly. muaahaha...
Met up with the OCBC ppl yesterday at the glasshouse Fish and Co. It is my 1st time there.. nice atmosphere! Had a nice and pleasant dinner with them... i had some difficulty trying to concentrate on my dinner due to the live band. The music they sang was nice.. but i find it a little too loud, somewhat disturbing the peace that i would have appreciated. And Porky was still commenting how sweet the waitress looked... hmm...is 'sweet' the correct word to describe her?? I personally didn't think so. When i thought i was the latest, Mickey came even later. hahha.. and we both were trying to shoot each other, coz ever since sch started, we have not seen each other in sch! so Mickey suggested if i'm really frm SIM, nxt wk, he'll drop a coin into the fish pond, so i have to tell him whether the coin is a head or a tail... how lame!! He even bought himself using nearly half a month's pay to buy a game.. i duno wat u call that.. portable PS? I was trying to figure out how to play the golf game...He was feeling proud trying to show us the images of gals clad in skimpy tops.
Why are guys like this?? tsk tsk tsk... their heads are full of stuff that sometimes its just simply uncomprehendable (is there such a word?) aiyoz... Mickey was still grinning from ear to ear.. and i was trying to figure out if he really meant what he say, or if he is just trying to be funny. haaha...
I'm on a diet now... and was telling Will just now. He said all i have to do is to eat regularly. I told him the problem is I'm eating TOO regularly... muaahaha.. and he laughed. And of coz, i needed to get more exercise. haaha.. i'm lazy. Even this, he can also refute me by saying "If u think u are lazy, u'll be lazy", oh my..!
I'm hungry... thats wat i can say.
