1st Social Tutorial

Today i'm feeling sian again.. I just had my long-dreaded social psych tutorial just now... As expected, we need to have multiple group discussions in every tutorials. And i ABSOLUTELY hate group discussions and presentations. Perhaps it's because i seldom speak in English ever since my secondary school years. (At least in my primary school days, i spoke in Singlish.) Now i can't even piece a sentence together in English verbally. Will get tongue-tied whenever i try to. =(

So for the tutorial, I fumbled and stumbled throughout my whole presentation that the other 4 people were like staring at me, making no sense of what i've just said. Actually i don't understand what i'm saying myself either. Haiz... REally FelT like digging a hole and bury myself in it.... :-'(

So unlike my other tutorials so far, I finally realise this one really needs ample preparation before we go for the tutorial. That equals cannot slack... =(

But there are some events before the tutorial that made me unprepared for the tutorials... So cannot blame me totally leh.. hehe...



The day earlier on goes like this:

I had actually wanted to study my readings for the tutorial during my 1-hour break after lunch. So planned to go Central library with my friend to mug them.

Because i still want to live a few more years, I cannot reveal her name here and shall call her Kawaii (only because she likes cute stuff =X).

But unfortunately we met our junior on the way. The moment Miss Kawaii saw her, she squealed so excitedly as if she had not met her junior for the last 10 years!! Then they started to chat happily for the next 20 minutes.

After what seemed like a century, they finally paused to find a bench to continue their chat (the 3 of us were standing all the while before that). Good! With a proper sitting bench and a table, i can finally start concentrating on my readings!!! =D

or so i thought..................................................






Throughout the last 25 mins of my break, I tried very hard to concentrate on what i'm reading. But i tell you, it's almost MISSION IMPOSSIBLE....

What with the ear-splitting "WAHAHAHA"s and the "Hiak, hiak, hiak"s in every 30 seconds or so, you will need much more than sheer concentration and determination just to finish 1 page of the book... ...











Yes, you need ear plugs as well!!

HAHAHA!!!



Ok, anyway it was before long that i sucuumbed to joining them in their conversation, and that's how i never got to prepare for my tutorial.. heh..



Later in our tutorial room, our tutor instructed us to form into groups and get to know each other. Then, we were told to do the ever hateful self-introduction to the class. And because almost all of us are Year 2, Psych majors, you can no longer use the template I'm Blah blah, Year X in Y Faculty, majoring in Z.

So when it's my turn, i have absolutely nothing to say... So i just tried to push my luck,

Me: "I'm YL, Year 2, Psych major."



Apparently, Luck is not on my side....

Tutor: "Is there anything new that you wanna tell us about yourself?"



After pondering for a while...





"I live in Bt Batok."




Why the whole class burst with laughter, i really don't know.....

Post of the month!!

Hey guys, i think i'm in love with my blog...
Whenever i'm bo liao, i will come and blog in here...

What a sad life i have!!!

Tomorrow's party cancelled =(

Just a quick one before I switch off my computer..

Claudia's birthday celebration tomorrow is being cancelled just now. It's all because our lecturers have been giving us too much homework in just the 2nd week of school! That's why we will be busy mugging tomorrow instead of enjoying our one-day tai-tai life. =( (We planned to go eat Uma Uma Men and go for desserts after that.)

So in the end, this outing can only be postponed till September during our holidays. Hope Claud's present won't rot by then.. Haha!

Ya, anyway they are not the only ones complaining about the sudden homework avalanche. WS too lament about her labs and reports and mostly about her nerdy lab partner . Even me, the super slacker who usually only start doing my tutorials in the middle of the sem have started doing my readings yesterday!! Help!!!

I think my nightmare has just started in NUS.

Last year was only an orientation.

I

AM

SO

DEAD..

Basketball

Hi people, i'm currently in the school library now.. Waiting for SW to finish doing her work in the library, while shun bian updating my blog. Came from the basketball welcome tea just now.. I think i smell a little, because no one except SW is sitting beside me now.. And she is simply too nice to not shift to the other corner.. So, poor her!! Haha!

When we first reach the basketball court at 4.30pm, we only saw a few girls there, and they don't really have the I-played-basketball-all-my-life-look. So i thought, "Phew! I'm not the only one!!" hahaha..

So after i paid the $6 life membershiop, the seniors there called us to form into groups and we started playing.. It's quite enjoyable.. because the girls are around my standard... All beginners.. Hehe!

And i tell you, actually, the real experty ones are always the latest ones.. Just like how the 赌神always make his appearance at the nick of the time in HK dramas..

As minutes go by, more and more experienced-looking girls started joining us.. One more experty than the previous. In the end, the last one is actually in her school basketball team! And oh my god, you should watch how they play.. Slam dunk here, 3 pointers there.. And i'm just standing there like this *_*... Thought we are only playing recreational basketball here???

Haiz... Perhaps i'm not made for basketball... I practically screeched at every ball that come my way. Haha, jkjk... But somewhere there lar.

Ok SW is done with her stuff.. Will continue later..

I'm back home now... Hmmm.. ok, let's continue...

Of course, there are plenty of guys there.. Never really got close to see if there are any good-looking ones though.. But there should be la, since there are so many there. Woohoo~!! Great nourishment for my eyes!!!

Don't know i should join or not.. The training sounds real tough, and so do the girls there for that matter. I'm such a scaredy cat at times!! =( Then SW, rarely being so interested in one CCA =X, seemed quite determined to join. So being the 义气 friend i am who wouldn't leave friends in lurch and also because of my 6 bucks , i think i'll most probably join this CCA.. heh.

Oops.. really late now.. Bye!! =D

Nothing interesting...

Some of my dear readers are already pestering me to update my blog lately.. Oh i know i know, my blog is just too interesting right?? haha...

Ok ok, stop throwing rotten eggs already...

Haiz, not that i don't want to update my blog, but it's just that there's nothing interesting for me to blog lately, and it's all because nothing interesting is happening to me lately!! =(

This is my daily routine:

Day 1:
Wake up
Go School
Eat
Watch HK dramas
Sleep

Day 2:
Wake up
Go School
Eat
Watch HK dramas
Sleep....
And the cycle repeats itself over and over again..

REaL InteResTinG.. o_O

Oh ya... lately i realised a couple of people whom i haven't met before actually knew my name.. Haiz... Looks like the blog fiasco still hasn't ended when i thought it's already over.. Looks like the topic hasn't died down yet. Hope it will soon.. Because it's starting to irritate me and i'm getting more and more paranoid by the day. =S

Ok, on a happier note... I got a skating membership card!!! Wahahahhaa... I heard that if you produce that card on tuesday, which is ladies' night (or day), you can iceskate at the fuji ice palace for the whole day at only $6.20!!! And that is inclusive of the rental skates!! hahaha... really got a bargain here! ^_^

I didn't realise there's this card when i went for the skating welcome tea.. so it's quite a big bonus to me.. hehe.. The club sounds pretty interesting to me, because they have weekly outings for in-line skating and bi-weekly ice-skating sessions. Just nice tuesday is my free day!! Woohoo!!! And i also realise one of the CAC freshies is in skating club too.. Great to have some company~ haha!

But the down factor is that i don't have any skates and ermmm... i have no idea how to skate?!! But i'm really keen in learning.. So ya, because of that, i have to either purchase my own skates at a cheaper rate (but still at about $100 =( ), or rent skates at $50 for the whole semester!!! As you have read from my previous posts, i'm already downright broke.. So if i join this CCA, i'm afraid i'm going to have to eat grass for my 3 meals soon. Then i know some of my dear friends will respond by saying, "Good what, can go on diet at the same time." -_-!!!

And these are the very dear friends who made fun of me about the ZOO joke =S. What cruel friends i have... Makes me wonder why am i still friends with them... *shake head* I finally understand how Mr Sian feels about his Sushi Eating Friend. HaiZ.

Ok, so anyway, i'm still not sure whether i want to join the skating club and am not really frustrated actually, since i've already got the membership card.. heh. For SW, she doesn't seem really keen in joining though, she seems more interested in the basketball sub-club. (But I also know nuts about basketball!! =( ) Well, tomorrow (or this evening?) i shall go take a look at the basketball welcome tea with her to decide which is the final CCA we will join.

Oh i'm also looking forward to this Sunday, because we are celebrating Claud's birthday!! The birthday girl threw us (me and Bri) the great honour of researching on the best eateries in Singapore.. Tutorials haven't start and we are in the midst of a project already!! So if you know any good and of course cheap restaurants (preferably in buffet style.. heh.), please do inform me!!! :)

And i also just realised many people can't get their desired timeslots this semester... Don't know why i got all mine every semester without fail... No kick sia~ =S

Guess i have to disguise myself when i go to school tomorrow...

$40 top

Oh my god!!! I MUST BE M-A-D....

I just bought a single top that's worth $40!!! Even more expensive than the 2 Dorothy Perkins tops that i bought last 2 weeks!!! And it's not very nice too.. With ugly flower patterns some more.. The only thing i like about it is it's cutting... But that's all.. Haiz, but i must say, the salespeople there are really something.. The sales lady kept pushing to me many different tops to try, when what i only want to try is one top!! Before long, i'm already buried under piles of clothes until i have difficulty to breathe under that pile!! haha.. no lar, i'm just exaggerating.. But they did push me 5 to 6 tops n a pants.. This is quite a smart tactic. After they gave you so many items to try, you'll feel guilty if you don't buy any.. And well.. it worked on me... and that's how i got that stupid top. =S

Don't think there's many occasions to wear that top also. But what's done cannot be undone.. Guess i'll wear it when we are celebrating Claud's birthday then.. ^_^

Ok, gotta sleep now... Don't really want to follow the eye-bag trend that's going around lately.. haha! Will blog more next time!

Ciao...

Ramblings II..

Oh, and i would like to add...

I've discovered some freckles on my already so spotty face!!!...

after my earlier discovery of new moles on my already molely(?) chin, shoulder, leg, arm... body !!!!!!!!!!!!!

ARrrrrgggghhhh........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why why why???!!!!!!!!!! Why so many setbacks one after another??

I'm really getting old...


That's why i'm so complainy nowadays.. heh.

Ramblings...

Haha.. It's been some time since i came to blog in here..
I think i'm starting to get lazy again.. Oh oh...

Oh ya, I think there's a problem with my tagbox lately.. Thought it would be ok after sometime.. So i waited, because i hoped all my previous conversations would still be saved. But apparently I'm wrong, looks like the site has probably been shut down for good. There goes my conversation history. =( So i've changed to using cbox instead.. Hope it lasts longer this time! haha!

I've been quite down again on last few days.. But after talking to my jie mei, i felt that i've been too 执著 over some issues. And that i should learn to let go sometimes. After all, these things are not forever, they always come and go. No point getting upset over such small matters..

Hahaha.. Never thought i'll say this... but if you are reading this... Thanks a LoT jIE mEI!!! thanks for hearing all my nonsensical complaints arhz.. and also thanX for consoling me ya.. (Better appreciate it ar, cos i wun say it again. =X)

Oh i just remembered what i want to complain.. On thursday, me, Bri, Claud and SY went to Co-OP making our textbook purchases. The other 3 was complaining about how expensive theirs was.. About 60 bucks or so.. And I didn't really consider how much my textbooks will cost, i roughly estimated to about 70 at most for 2 books... So i thought, " WOw~ Lucky i didn't take CNM!!"

After getting my SOcial and Abnormal Psych Textbooks, i went to queue to pay for them. Guess how much the books cost??


A Whopping $88.40!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The main reason being the Abnormal text cost about $50!! Grrr.... Yeah, it has hard cover and glossy papers.. but so what?!! it's only to improve our reading experience, that's all! Books are meant to be read, not display.. Haiz.. Now i have to figure out how to survive on my measly $150-$88.40= $62.60 this month.. =(


Some kinda Abnormal textbook this is...

And hope the lecturers won't decide to make my life even more miserable by changing textbooks again for the next semester.. HaiZ...


University education is really meant for the rich...



Add on: Oh i almost forgot... After making their purchases, Bri come and (happily) add salt to my wounds by telling me their CNM textbook actually only cost about $30 this sem!!!! Because it's been changed to paperback this semester.. Life is just so unfair... =(

Ideal Timetable

Just before i go sleep....this is my ideal timetable.. Hopefully i get my desired tutorials!! *pray*



As you can see, i've got 2 hour blocks from 10-12 on even weeks and 2-4 on odd weeks. Anyone rotting during that timeslot too??? haha!

Friday the 11th

Perhaps Heaven or whoever up there miscalculated and assigned Friday the 11th to be my Bad Luck Day instead of Friday the 13th..

Plans: To meet mf and wl at 11am to eat mac breakfast at bugis, then go meet the rest of the g8ngst8rs at 5+ to 6pm at marina square.

10am: I can't find my keys!!!

10.20am: I realised i left my house keys in my dad's car!! My dad has left for work long ago. Without my keys, i can't lock my house after i leave. And i can't possibly go out with my house unlocked. So... i realised i'm stuck in the house!!! @#%#@!

10.50am: Thanks to many years of watching dramas with burglars breaking into houses, I finally thought of a similar way to lock the front door without keys!!! That proves that the tele does help you in your daily lives people.. heh...(uh uh... method i won't disclose, lest some of you should use this to break into mine..)

11am: I must say, I’m quite proud of my little ingenious trick that just saved me a whole lot of trouble. haha! looks like heaven is on my side!! I grabbed my stuff, dumped it in my bag and then went out.

That very moment i locked my front door, i felt something amiss. I reached in my bag to confirm my suspicions...








My wallet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I’ve remembered to bring everything… digicam, water bottle, jacket, umbrella….. Everything, except my wallet!!!!!!!!!!!! And I’ve just locked myself outside!!!!! DARN!!!!!!!!

I felt so sick immediately… I checked my bag frantically, hoping I have left some money in the bag.

Alas!!!! I came up with a grand total of …





40 cents.


Fish!!

This would mean that I could not afford that night’s expenses. In fact, I couldn’t even afford a single bus trip to anywhere!!! Arrrggghhhh…!!! Once again, I’m stuck!!! #%^@$#@%%@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no money, I can’t go anywhere. Parents at work, mf and wl already at bugis. I can only wait till 5pm when my brother comes home before I can go anywhere. No way am I going to do that!! I decided to get to the interchange first before I planned on what to do next.

On my way there, I came up with several options.

1) Call mf to meet me at the station near my house to lend me money.
But she had already reached AMK and was quite reluctant to turn back.

2) Take a cab to lavender to borrow money from my mom during her lunch time.
The cab fare would be too expensive and it’s pretty weird to ask the cabby to wait while I go look for my mom for money.

3) Look for money on the ground.
No such luck!! =(

4) Beg
I’m wearing an expensive top right then, don’t look convincing enough to be a beggar.. haix..

In the end, after pondering for quite some time, I thought of a better idea. To go to the bank to apply a new ATM card! It just so happens that I have my passport with me. Phew!

There was a long queue at the bank. I waited for 1 ½ hours for my turn. When it’s finally my turn, my mom called me to tell me my dad rushed home to lock the door and found it locked (I called mom when I realized my keys were in dad’s car. So my mom still thought I left the house unlocked.). Since my dad’s home, I can just go home to collect my wallet!!! Immediately I called him, and found that he’s already at bukit timah. I told him of my situation and pleaded him to make a U turn. Luckily he did, and I realized at that point of time, that my dad can actually be a quite a nice person. Hah…

I finally got my wallet… and my keys too!!! A final ending to all my bad luck, I thought. But little did I know that there’s still more at the end of the day….

The whole morning is pretty much gone just like that and by the time I reached there, it’s already 1.30pm. But the rest of the day went smoothly though.

Mf, wl and I went shopping at bugis village and bugis junction till 6pm before we went to marina square to meet the rest of the gang.

There’s fireworks display on that day, so marina square was pretty crowded by the time we got there. We went to kbox there to book a room. The receptionist told us we can only have the room till 10pm and it’s already 7.15pm at that time. -_-“” Without much other choice, (as there are no other places where we can have fun together and accommodate all 7 of us) we settled for that room and took their buffet dinner too.

I advise you... NEVER to go to marina square kbox when it’s crowded. They interrupted us every half an hour to clear our plates and glasses for the first 2 hours. At the last half an hour, they came into room for like every 5 to 10 mins to settle bill payment, to clear our 1 or 2 plates… And for the last 10 mins, they were practically chasing us out to serve their new customers. Even mf is quite pissed with them…

And I’m dealt with a great blow during our kbox session… My beloved Edison actually made out with Jolin for one of her MTVs!!!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhh……!!!!!!!!!! *sounds of heart being shattered*
Why must he do that in front of me?!!!
And why…….why must he go dye his hair to that ugly colour???!!!!! His previous jet black hair is xo cool… and now…. he looks like orang utan!! HAiZ…

The bill amounted to 31 bucks for each person!! Just for 3 measly hours!! Luckily i ate quite a lot of salmon sashimis, so that balanced off the injustice there. =D

Despite all the above tragedies, we had generally a fun time taking photos, recording videos and doing silly dances at kbox. Hahaha… will post when I received them…

After kbox session, we went over to a pub near fullerton hotel. This is our first time to pubs, so naturally we were pretty excited about it. And we.took.photos again… haha! Under the influence of the 浪漫手机 mtv (and also with nothing better to do), hy, wei and jx played an sms game. In the video, a girl (schemingly) smsed Jay Chou by mistake. They got to know each other from there and fall in love in the end. Apparently these 3 bo liao and despo optimistic girls wanted to try their luck in finding The One by following the girl in the MV. Of course I, being the very rational and mature person, did not follow suit. Oh…err… did I mention that my handphone was out of batt?? =X

Ok so fast forward… the taxi fare cost a whopping 50.10 bucks (even though the cabby promised us that it DEFINITELY wouldn’t exceed 50) , and I reached home at about 5 am because I’m the last to alight.

My mom woke up in time to see me getting ready to sleep. Got a earful from her… and another from my dad the next morning… as well as an 11pm curfew from then onwards… Man… Think I can’t stay out late in the near future anymore… =(

Palmistry....

Damn. Today is only the first day of school and i'm already feeling so sian. The lecturers of 2 of my modules just (happily) promised us tons of readings to prepare before each tutorial. SianZation!! Perhaps i'm not suited to study.. Haha..

Anyway, today i went to do something interesting which pretty much brightens my day after my super duper SUEI (=unlucky) day last week (i'll blog about this later!).

Yeah..

Palmistry!!


Currently there's this bazaar going on in my school where there are many booths selling almost everything ranging from computer gadgets to clothes and accessories. One of these booths is this astro-palmistry booth where you can ask about your future on the following 6 topics. You can either pay $10 for 2 of these topics or $20 for all 6.

love/marriage
luck/money
career
travel/migration
health
children


With the current not-so-interesting lifestyle i have now, i'm definitely curious as to what will happen to me in future. Thus i went there with mf and her friend cheryl. We waited for quite a long time (while mf kept Om mani Padme Hungs continuously..) as there was a long queue before us. Being the typical Singaporean that i am, of course i chose the more 划算 one. Heehee.. He gave me a very detailed analogy and i felt my $20 is quite well-spent.. All the following examples are given by him. Guys, don’t puke k.. All these not i say one.. haha!

My Character

My parents have a great control over me, and restrict me to do most of the stuff that i want. Which is one of the reasons why I’m very conservative, reserved and lack of confidence.

Example: I would not take the initiative to chase after a guy, and a guy probably have to ask me out 5 times before I agree.

Advice: Say ‘hello’ to the one I like!


I’ve a very strong sense of intuition and mostly it’s accurate.

Example: If I have a bad feeling about this SIA plane that I am going to take, don’t take. It might save my life!!

Advice: Trust my intuition.


I tend to think ‘bloody too much’!!

Example: If a guy I think likes me, I would think up of a thousand reasons why he doesn’t later.

Advice: Don’t think too much lar..


But on the contrary to the above, I'm an egoistic person, very competitive too.. Have leadership qualities, like to control people and will be very popular if I can take all the above advice.


My main and greatest weakness: Temptation.

Example: Drinking. If I love drinking and tempted to drink a lot, someone may spike my drink and god-knows-what will happen. (Shux! I only had my first drink last week..)

According to mf, by temptation he actually meant that i'm unable to resist good-looking guys... and because of that they may take advantage of me. Fish!! @#$#@%#@%#@%~!!!!!!!

He also said I have an aura which makes people very hard to sabo me.. (hehe!) but this will be ‘killed off’ due to my inability to resist temptation. (Damn...)


Love/Marriage

My future partner may be a foreigner or an overseas-born Chinese.

I must find someone of higher status than me… and not someone who’s weaker.

I’ll most likely to marry at 31 (looks like you’ve lost your bet, mf…), and may re-marry again at 35.

Oh ya, he also said my palms read that I’m sexy (woohoo!!!) though i don’t look like so…. =S


Money/Luck

Due to this ‘fish’ on my palm, I’ll be prosperous and bring prosperity to my future spouse. (He said only 10 out of 1000 has this, and whoever has 2 ‘fishes’ are destined to be a fortune teller like him.) But because of this, my spouse may get lazy. (=S! Looks like I must train him sia…)

There will be a major point of change when I reached 35. As mentioned above, may re-marry, or strike lottery… (I hope it is the latter… HAHA!! Woohoo~!!!!).

He also said I will have something majorly lucky or unlucky happening on either Nov ’07 or Dec ’08. But 95% confirm that something is going to be lucky. I may fall in love!! Hahahaha!!

But generally, I’ll be pretty lucky.. hehe..


Career

Researches, (and some other jobs which I can’t remember) suits me best because I am good in details, in other words, meticulous… wahahha!

My job depends much on 人缘 to succeed.. and it’s possible because I’ve got the potential to be popular…Hehehe...

I'll be dealing with many major proposals and many foreigners during my course of work. I'll also make many major decisions! (WOW!! *_*)

And my ideal job scope is to be an industry where I can ‘show off’!! (Maybe I should consider being an actress or singer or any kind of artiste… wahahaha!! Look out for the next star-wannabe!! =X)


Travel/Migration

I tend to travel a lot and will migrate in the end (which he said in great confidence that i WILL DEFINITELY migrate). I will travel to and fro between Singapore and my migrated country due to business or family.

Foreigners are my 贵人s.


Health

Do not have a fantastic health in future. =(

May have high blood pressure, high cholesterol or heart-related problems …


Children

Will give birth to boys… (Damn! I was looking forward to girls instead…)






Well, so that’s about all… Looks like my future husband will be a foreigner.. Hope he’s some really cute Caucasian instead of some foreign construction workers.. hehe… So, guess I no longer need to care so much of my image in front of local guys liao… haha~

Cute Caucasian, here I come!!

My DreaM...

Found these Beautiful pictures someday back~ Actually wanted to use these as my background, but i don't know how to..

All these are photos taken in the Maldive Islands, and they seemed like a real getaway from our busy lives!! Oooo.. I'm so dying to go there once in my lifetime!! Maybe g8ngst8rs can go with me this DEcember?? Heehee.....








This is Phuket Island.. Like i've mentioned in my previous post, i've only gone there once 5 or 6 years back, and i've only entered the waters for like 20 mins but the experience is really unforgetable..



Snorkelling.... In case you are wondering, that's definitely not me k...
-_-..



This is what i hoped to see~ Nice nice corals and colourful fishies!!! hahaha!








...And not this..................














!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Haha, but anyways, after so many nice and beautiful pictures, surely some of you would want to go there right?? Ask me along k?? If want, can treat me also, i don't mind!! ^_^



Cheers!

Happy Birthday !!

Besides being the national day, today is my mom's birthday as well.. So i purposely made today free just to accompany her on her birthday. =)

Today morning when i asked my mum how she wanted to celebrate her birthday, she said,

"Dunno leh..", and turned to my dad, "oei, wad are we going to do today?"

Dad replied, "Celebrate ar? Watch TV and sleep lor.."

-_-"""

Already i was thinking how much more fun i could have if i had asked my friend out instead.

Luckily my dad was only joking..



In the end, we went to PS to shop for my mom's birthday present. But today many shops had many crazy sales going on. That's why I got distracted and shopped for my clothes instead... =X

(I bought 2 tops and a pair of shorts!! Finally got a pair of shorts that suit me!! Only 15 bucks some more!! Giodarno's shorts cost $39 leh!! Wahahahahhaha...!!!)

Erhem.. Anyway, shop shop shop.. and at the end of the day, my dad bought a Titus watch for my mom, and it's the newest model that is advertised on this poster with Sammi Cheng in it. Seriously, i don't think it's nice at all...(due to generation gap maybe?) but all that it matters is that my mom thinks it's nice bah! =) My dad had very high opinions of Titus watches too, even though i think he only know of this brand for the first time today.
Oh.. did i mention his favourite HK actress is Sammi?

Today was a great day, hope my mom liked her watch so much that she had forgotten that i still owe her her present. ^_^

JX's bday

Yesterday, the g8ngst8rs celebrated JX's 20th birthday. Finally put our plans to action man~ The theme this time was back-to-school-days theme. Everyone of us wore something related to Swiss and acted like secondary school kids once again (so childish sia! =X).

ZW, MF, WL and me --> Swiss Carnival shirts
HY --> sec 1 art club tee
WS --> swissathon tee
JX --> swiss PE shorts (-_-!!!)
DR --> .. ... ..... did he wear anything related??

Everyone got up early to meet at the bt timah market, where we bought our feast for the party. This is our menu:

Carrot Cake (Black and White)
Hokkien Noodles
Satay Bee Hoon
Popiah
Curry Rice
Beancurd Tang Yuan
Fried Kway Tiao (added on later by DR, but is mainly for himself lar..)

Anyway, later we proceed to Lot 1 to buy a lovely and yummy-looking strawberry shortcake for JX and also grabbed a couple of tidbits + drinks. And we are ready to go!!

Since it's back-to-school-days theme, we re-enacted her 16-year-old birthday party.
Like 4 years ago, we went over to her house and found a spot perfect to hide our whole group and also nice enough to hold her party. Then we called her to say we are meeting at woodlands after we 'took cover'.

Sure enough, she was fooled surprised again after 4 years!! Ahahaha...=X She really thought we were meeting her at causeway point and even prepared her jacket (in case we go kbox) and a cap (for sentosa)!!! hahaha... some things never change after 4 years..................

Next we went on to our favourite pastime.............



Taking photos!!!!




Muahahahahahaaaaa....

We aRe truly a bunch of narcisstic people.. Took many wacky and crazy photos yesterday.. Some formal ones like those we took for our class photos during secondary school, some toot ones with stupid-looking 痞子 wearing 高腰裤,some 鬼脸 ones to match the 7th month atmosphere =X and some "professional" ones that can be found in any fashion mag (by our DR director).
Photos are currently still in JX and Wei's cams. Will post when i received them.

Although the party ended quite early due to most of our other commitments, we had much fun~!! HAha, there's also another party comin' up! Our g8ngst8r Birthday Anniversary!! GuyS, any suggestionS on what to do?? Oh, and HY said to prepare to stay late that day~ Don't fly aeroplanes arhZ...

Blur.. not unfriendly..

Think i must be super blur or what.. Haiz.. Kept making stupid making silly and awkward situations all the time..

Like yesterday night, i was walking jaywalking on my way home, was looking out for cars while i was walking across the road. At the same time i was looking past someone in that direction. Out of the corner of my eye, i can tell he's looking at my direction too. And i thought, he must have thought i'm looking at him.. ( that happens to me all the time, i'm actually looking something behind someone, that someone will keep looking at me cos he/she thinks i'm looking at them. ) So i continued to look past him, hoping that he will get the message i'm not looking at him.

He walked in front of me. Suddenly i found him quite familiar, he seemed to be one of my project mates in my past sem.. I continued to walk behind him and observe. When we reached the interchange, he finally turned around. His features look like my project mate, but he didn't say hi or anything plus it's dark at that time and i can't see clearly so i cannot confirm it's him. So.. i just do what i always do.. pretend i never see him, or don't know him..

If he's my project mate, no wonder he's looking my direction when i'm crossing the road.. Because he must have found me familiar too.. And i must have looked as if i don't know him at all. Haiz... No wonder people who are not very close to me often think i'm dao (unfriendly) or something. But it's probably only because i'm not too observant most of the time!! Or because i can't see clearly and therefore can't confirm.


Not the first time such incidents have happened to me. Often when i'm meeting my friend or relative at shopping malls, i'll just walked past them even if i'm only a metre away from them!! There was once i even changed my direction to avoid bumping into the person in front of me. And that person is my friend whom i'm planning to meet!! HaiX...


There's another incident also.. I saw my friend, who's supposed to go to poly, at NUS. I went over and asked her why she's here. But she didn't respond, so i raised my voice and called her again. She looked at me and asked her friend, "Is she talking to me?" Upon closer look, she's not my friend at all. Oops..

And then once, i'm meeting ZW and HY at the bus stop to go hiking. When i arrived, there's only a lady at the bus stop. She looked roughly like ZW, but i can't be sure because she's not wearing her specs for the first time plus my eyesight not very perfect and i don't want to 認錯人 (again..).

So (according to ZW later), i sneaked many looks at her discreetly (?) and for a long time... before she said, "Yiling, you 認不出我嗎?" Haix.......

Why why why??? Why such silly incidents always happen to me?? =(

Think i better wish for a sharper brain and better eyesight this December..

Goodbye Hwa Chong!!

Hoho~ i'm finally not working anymore~!! I'm FreE!! hehe... Date me peOpLE, date mE!!

Actually yesterday should be my last day.. Yesterday, I told everyone that it's my last day at work.. I even brought my digicam and took photos with all of them.

In the end.........

I can't finish my work at the last minute!!!
In the end, " Err.. Boss i think i can't finish my work by today, can i come back tomorrow to work for another day? " (after happily taken photos n rcved best wishes from all...)

走得这么不干脆,so paiseh sia.. haix...

Anyway, let me show you what's my life like on a typical day for the past 2 months..

In the morning, i'll have to climb the overhead bridge and this is what you can see of the school from up there..


Then i'll walk the looong road from the entrance to my office and i'll pass by this clock tower.. (As you can see, i'm late again.. =X)


When i enter my office, i'll pass by my boss and her cubicle.. She is really a very sweet and friendly person~ No matter how many silly qns i ask or how many silly mistakes i made during work, she is still very patient with me.. =X


This is the Senior Admin MAnager..
He's sO nice! (He gave me a choco bar n a stress ball on my last day! =P)



My cubicle!! Messy as usual..


The one standing on the left is the VP of HCI, she's friendly and cooL~ The other is my colleague, he's the joker in the office.


At 1 o'clock, I'll have my lunch break, and these are mY LuNcH MaTiEs..




The food there is only OK though.. i think my previous schools' canteens are much better.. (Gosh, never ever dream i'll say that!!)


HAha.. SO goODbYe HCI, will miss all of you there! =)
