i'm very awake now. VERY! All thanks to the 2hrs nap i took after dinner. Wat a peaceful nap man. No disturbances which is so seldom in my super noisy poh's family. Well, it was all explained when i awoke, shanghai knights! Only jackie chan's has this appeal man. wait! i must correct myself, it only works on the 2 Mr Pohs.

Anyway, i missed houses of harmony. Luckily, part 2 will be showed tml. Yippee, i finally won't miss part 2. Hadnt been able to catch it despite the constant re-runs on SCV. Haha. but now, finally, i can watch it on the local channel.

Had great fun yest nite wif sim peeps. think shed some kilos aft all the jittering and constant walkabouts yest. haha. will post the pics once i receive them. * i LIKE ah fu's shimmering pics slideshow. Starry starry! and i think i know which are the pictures that she like most. :) heehee

My right eye is twitching now. Being super awake, i decided to find out the cause of my twitching.

Found this webby that actually tell us the myth behind the our twitching at different timings of the day. *Very interesting. Previously, i only remember somethin bout good/bad luck that is associated with the left/right eye twitching. Never knew there were more to this myth.

Check it out: http://www.geocities.com/fengshuiprofessional/twitchingeye.htm

And being very rational...presenting the scientific explanation: http://www.eyecaresource.com/conditions/eye-twitching/causes.html

Mmh. the dry eye part might be true but 'fatigue and lack of sleep' are totally untrue. *for now.

Just conquered another korean serial today. I'm off to start another and hopefully, it will make me sleep. haha. I always have the tendency to fall asleep in front of my fav blasting companion.

Looking up at the clear sky when i alighted from 52, instead of taking my normal hasty steps home, i slowed down, the beauty of the dusk make me realise.. realise how lucky that i'm able to see.

It hits me at that point that it is possible that i might lose this gift. i dunno where did this fear came from. Cos of the mysterious redness in my eyes? Cos of my insecurites? Cos i don't even recognise myself in the mirror?

It's relaxing that i haven had work for a while but its pretty weird after the fully packed previous semester.. work, school, projects which filled up my every minute. I prefer that life.

'I dunno le' had been my favourite line recently, seems that my brain is really in need of some restruturing and tonics. Argh, now i'm trying to remember this chim word from our morning discussions but i just can't.

Ok. enuff, i think i'm losing it.

A lil tribute to my dearie lesbian fren, Ms Daphne Kwan Sze Hua that is, i hope, smiling in the Land of Smiles. Though we r not celebrating ur birthday on your special day, i reckon its pretty cool to be celebrating in a foreign land. Well, it kinda fulfill ur wish of travelling out on ur birthday, rite? Haa, though, of course, its not the exact description of ur wish.

Nevertheless, i'll like to wish u a super delightful birthday with a wunnerful year ahead with surprises, happiness and blissfulness (mmh, they all kinda seems to have the same meaning ya? haa. but I know u will get what i'm trying to say..)

Daphne Kwan, a fren that just seems to be heaven sent, someone who is total opposite of me but who can understand and click with me, her opposite.

Mmh..Words to describe her: Attractive, cool, super street-smart, independent, very 'onz', somewhat irritating &....... so ah lian (ok..just sometimes la)!

She had been this pattern from as long as I knew her, but no matter wat, even if u gonna change one day, i'm still gonna LOVE u the same. Ooh. ppl r so gonna start speculating bout my sexual disposition.

Finally, a belated birthday song for YOU, one & only for u!!
Happy birthday to u, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to Ms Kwan, happy birthday to you!!!! Muackz :) Now..u know what i meant by we are complete opposites.

Think i gotta swallow my words and leave them as reserves in my stomach. After reading grace's straits times with the NDP photos, i realised that the NDP was actually full of new and interesting stuff. The water stunts... The kites.. the commandos from the bridge... the fireworks... Oh my, i'm so gonna catch the repeat telecast.

Another add-on.. never knew that my bestie fren, ah kuek is a superstar in making. haha! pls see http://www.ndp.org.sg/home.html and u will understand what i mean.. Good job, ah kuek and SSA gang! so can feel the 'warmth' from 7hrs away!

And i saw this report which is provided by grace's straits times once again. thanks goodness that she bought today's 'HOME' section or we'll have missed this! Guess this pic is not too clear, kuek, but i just wanna show u that we all saw and read it! Guess u can see it on straits times interactive too:)

Happy birthday, Singaporeans!!

Was looking forward to this year TV telecast of NDP. The anticipation was created from the disappointment that i couldnt get tickets to watch NDP live in even any of the previews and also of the new venue.

But alas. i fall asleep for the 1st half of the parade. For the 2nd half of the parade, i was engrossed with my dinner. I only remembered watching Kit Chan and the fireworks. And that was the only times that i remembered my whole family gathering in front of the tv.

I'm not sure if the change in venue had dampen my spirits for this year's NDP. The venue which is much smaller makes the parade lost the majestic and 'Singaporean' touch that had always overwhelmed me when i attend the parade in our National stadium or Padang. Though Padang is also a smaller venue, the feeling was still there.

This year's parade seems like an over-the-top display of Sentosa's musical fountain. Even the fireworks doesnt seems to be lighting up the sky.

We even caught bored students who perform with pure sian-ness. It was the funniest part of the evening.

Nevertheless, the lightings still amaze me. Other than this, i'm sorry to say that despite the huge amount of efforts, its a huge disappointment.

I believe that if changes are made to the NDP program, lesser ppl will be travelling out during this long hols break. Instead of always having the parachuters, followed by march-in, costumed kids forming images, singing of the theme song and finally fireworks, there could be more ignition of creativity into the program. I sooo can memorise the program flow.

Let's show that Singapore can be creative too!!

But no matter wat, I still heart this little red dot, my home...and NDP serve the purpose of reminding me of this.

All the while, he was talking about catapult and i tot he was talking about kettle pot. Same pronunciation but two words that have complete different meanings. This show the great difference between the two of us and also the size and simplicity of my mind. I din realise my mistake till he tells me that he need to shoot some fire balls through the 'kettle pot'. At that point, i was still wondering if he or his lecturer is crazy to think of shooting fire balls thru a 'kettle' which is just meant for boiling water. Haa! how funny!

His catapult My kettle pot

Dun ask me why am I this dumb. Sometimes, i can't believe myself as well

Just testing... but its a nice song :)

I was once again touched by the love protrayed by Lam fung in La Femme Desperado. Besides their huge age difference and regardless of the span of years where they din meet, his love still prevails and remain strong. I'm totally won over by him. However, this type of love and guy will cease to exist in today's world.

Thumb's up to his acting skills and thanx to ying who intro me to the show or else i'll never bother watching and will miss in witnessing such pure love.

COOL! the best word to describe Melbourne. The weather is wunnerful, even with harsh winds attacking my face the whole time. The scary tales i heard of the coldness are totally unfounded. i absolutely love it. think i'll get heatstroke when i get back.
Shopping had been what i have been doing the past 2 days. The fashion is not that bad afterall. and i think winter wear is so cool. Ppl can just wear layers of clothes without looking out of place and to me, they are absolutely cool. It's just too bad that we'll be sweaty freaks if we ever try this in spore.
Tempted to buy boots. we'll see.
Cassie brought me to my first DFO today. I'm such a country bumpkin. Before visiting it, tot that it will be a messy and factory looking place. Yet, it dont look like that at all. It just look like a normal shopping place with discounts. I just keep buying $10 tops. :) Well, but what really irritates me is where i waste my time in the fitting rooms where i kept repeating the process of stripping and rewearing the layers of clothes i have.
Anyway, Cassie is exactly the way that kuek describes. Very sweet and really show genuine care for people.
I'm getting used to the weather, think i can start wearing summer clothes out. haha.. AS IF! The sky is rather dark now, though its only 6 plus. Guess this is just the only negativity bout Mel. Wanted to extend my stay but the next avail flight is the 24th which is far too late. I just gotta maximise my stay as far as possible.
haa, I'm so displaying signs of boredom. Can't wait for kuek to end her retest tomorrow. Really hope that it will be a much better paper than her previous and that she will get through it!
Waiting to go for dinner! yippee. its time for real food :)

-End of report-

No one can imagine my thankfulness for this gift.
This gift is expensive not just in its cost but also the value. The value of our friendship.
The meaning and value of this gift far surpasses the monetary value.
Thank you, my dearest best friend. You are the best GIFT i will ever have.

While reflecting on this gift, our friendship, I chanced upon the new National song. The particular verse:
This is where my family
And my friends grew up with me
So I'll cross the skies and sail the seas
To be where i wanna be
A patriotic song which also reflects my growth becos of you.

And also, just an add-on.
Don't fret, you will definitely be rewarded for your hard work in one way or another. I'll loan you all my luck for you-know-what:)

A break after a long while.

Tutu bro and sis finally can catch Fantastic 4 aka F4 at causeway point, where timings are really limited with the much-anticipated Transformers being screened.

First, tutu sis waited for tutu bro for close to an hr at junrong station. tutu bro din noe, went ahead to causeway point 1st. anyway, tt's alrite, since he can wait in the queues 1st.

Second, bro is short of cash, i managed to reach in time to pay. The ticketer asked if it is fine if there r only 1st row left. I was thinking tt it's really weird that F4 is still so popular after two wks on screen. nevertheless, i just bought the tix with no questions amidst the long queues and squeeziness.

Third, i was so hungry that i had to buy and devour the popcorn with my tutu bro. I went to the washroom, and when i came back, i tot that i saw the preview for Transformers. eh.. but no.. it wasnt a PREVIEW. It was the show itself. oh my, here goes my F4.

I was rather pissed with the kuku ticketer who must had assumed that the whole world came for Transformers. But come on, i'm not those common ppl who wan catch the latest show on the very 1st day.

Nevertheless, the show was awesome. woo.. i LIKE! though its the very 1st row and i was in the theatre with a bunch of sweaty young kids, the show really bring me back to those days. Those days when i dun really like cartoons but know that robots can be differentiated using their eye colours. The evil ones will definitely have red eyes and menacing look.

Anyway, going back to the 'fourth'!

Fourth, after the show, with aching necks, my bro and i went down the levels to find washroom. It's ages since we visit causeway point. It was then tt we saw a young kid crying his guts out near the escalator. Everybody else was just staring. Well, me being me, i just went up to the kid, soothe him, carry him and keep trying to console him in whatever baby languages i know. We found the information counter, 6 levels down and passed him to the info counter gal. A few announcements were made, the parents were nowhere to be seen. I was worried sick that it was a case of abandonment. At that point of time, the boy cried again. The tutu info counter gal just continue to sit the boy on her lap. Come on, she should just carry him la! I was almost about to cry out at tt point when looking at his reddish and wet face. Anyway, i just carry him up and YES, he really stop crying.

While carrying him, i was thinking the what-ifs. if the parents dun come by, i'll bring the boy home. It was then i heard a voice, a 'daddy's' voice.

The cutey boy and his very calm dad is reunited.

Fifth, we can finally visit the washroom after nearly an hour.

This incident just reminded me and my frenz about the cardboard carrying at jurong point. Am i always this impulsive? haha

Anyway, hail to the transformers, heros of the world. and i will still wan to catch F4 this week. NO MORE MISTAKES..

2 months of hols are coming to an end. REST? nope..dun think i did. but yesh, at least my hard work will pay my trip to aust.

I finally finished the HK vcd tt i watched over these 3 wks. how pathetic and lil time i have. In the past, i'll be able to finish it within 2 days. Never mind bout that. anyway, 'brink of law' is really a great show, with suspenses throughout the show. Despite lack of slp and 3 esps in 1 disc, i din dozed off at any pt of time.

However, it ends with a sad endin, where the cute hero dies, leaving his wife and unborn child. It's a cruelty to her wife but yet she is brave enough to carry on her life.

i hate sad endings. read in a mag that ppl who always look forward to happy endings in shows are in actual fact, low esteemed ppl who hope that everything will be always go well.

That's who i am.

E dream had left me with such a warm and SAFE feeling. I had never felt that safe bef. Will it really be the case in reality? Or will it be just in my dreams..

anyways, ooh!! so happy. my cold is so much better.

I'm 5 pieces short towards e completion of my doraemon magnet. So so thankful to everyone that had contributed to my collection. Helping me to buy sweets, mags, pizzas, drinking H2O and big gulp and giving me ya extras magnets. Thanks so very much!!!

i'm super GAY now!

I dun wan to fret over what should i write for my eval of our dear team member, 'cherry'.

I dun wan to fret over DC.

I dun wan to fret over work.

Cos i have my doraemons...heeeheee!! and yesh! i got a big one from ah fu! thanks so much!

Speaking of that, my bro was so shocked to see such a big one in e mornin. He tot that e mini one tt i rec from HC had enlarged overnight. haa!!

Hope that it will prevails in reality..

Gossips are scary. Sometimes, i'll rather not hear bout it. However, when its in my ears, there is nothing i can do but to participate in it. Alarms were ringing in my mind that i must be super tactful wif whatever i reply or say as they will DEFINITELY be bought forward to other and spread around like nobody's business. super scary. i really dont like it. Well, but i gotta learn rite? Learn how to respond appropriately, know who can be trusted and who dont. At this point of time, I'm not sure if i had trust the right person cos it doesnt seems to be that simple. If she tell me all these stuff, does tt means that she's willing to share and tt i can do so as well.

Time will tell.

The school's air had been bad, bad, very bad! It was getting to our eyes, hair, face and especially ah fu's NOSTRILS! Hahhaa..

It's really time that we invest in e oxygen tanks!

In another hr, it will be our dearest dino's day!
Happy birthday to you in advance, happy birthday to you in advance, happy birthday.. happy birthday....... Happy birthday to you in advance!!

May this year be sparkling with happiness for you!

Knowing my standard, Dis is e best i can do! Hope ya know wat is it! Dis is open for everyone to guess =)

Though it will be spent in sch, but at least it will be in our lovely company! hee..

And also, a big EMBRACE to ying for joining e blogging adventure. May your updates be more than any of us!

So happy! I finally managed to upload videos here. haa. I'm must be an idiot in e past. keep lamenting tt there is something wrong with blogger. ai yo. now den realise its my personal Ctrl+P prob. hee

I couldnt help it. This is really funny and super duper ENTERTAINING!
I couldnt help marvel at these taiwanese guys.. but what a group name. Lollipop?
Nevertheless. This performance is a must-watch! You will lOVE it.
Look at his expressions! Tt's what entertaining is all about!

As it suddenly come to my mind, this basketball dance by one of the grp guys, I decided to watch his performance on utube bef (hitting) my pillows. But who knows, I just continued surfing ard Utube for their other performances. Though they more or less perform the same stuff in different variety shows, I feel that at least some of the group members have some commendable talents that are really showable. Their dance moves are e BEST of all!

Haa.. but cant believe that I will be hooked on by these LOLLiPOP guys AND at this time. Shit. My bro must be thinking that I'm e 2nd utube addict aft my sis. But must admit la, gt pretty cute ones inside. not of e face only but in other aspects too.

e Basketball dance (It's somewhere in e 5th min)

All e best for ya new sem with challenges and also, i believe, FUN too! Hope tt u will reach my SIZE so that i can den decrease mine with you when u r back. haha

This time round, i did not bawled! As i said, i know i'll be working very hard to realise my promise to her! (TRUST me, peeps!)

When i woke up this morning, i had my financial plans all sorted out. I know what i want and i'll work very hard towards it.

Thanks to mamee who had agreed to be my main supporter behind my back. Muacks

I will lessen my monthly splurge, saved up in the respective accounts and try my very best to keep dis job.

Looking back at my TP intership journals, it reminded me of the times that i had difficulties drafting my short/mid/long term goals. But now i know..

Short-term goals:

Lessen my splurges and socialising (less expensive dinners, switching to kopitiam fare..TRUE frenz, pls take note!)

Take taxis less frequently = no lateness!

Mid-term goals:

Get behind the wheels officially bef e end of 2007

Save up to visit kuek

Fully utilise my last schooling year = fun, good grades and .... FUN!!

Long-term goals:

SAVE.. Look, I really finally understand the merits of saving

Now I know.. we just need an ultimate goal in mind. We'll then be able to pen down the short/mid/long term goals to reach tt ultimate.

Well, i know that a lot of you wont believe that i will succeed. To be honest, I'm not even confident if i can.

But please.. i'm really gonna try. NONO...not try, i'm gonna DO IT! :)

Having the flu. I'm not gg to take my decolgen. Will try to see if i can recover on my own..crossing my fingers! Forget all those crap bout redoxan tt can keep illness at bay! maybe i sld increase my dosage to every day instead of every other day!

Yesterday was supposed to be our 1st finance class in e evenin. heard from ying and doris that e lesson had been postponed to wed and thurs! thanx for tellin me! wont even know if u all din tell me and i just assumed tt i was e last person to know. Sorry ah fu...i shouldnt had assumed! sorry tt u made a wasted trip :(

Hope that i can keep my part time job. very worried tt they will oust me out once my boss's cousin had get used to the workflow..:( praying hard tt my boss won do tt to a poor student like me! haa..but even if so, who can i blame? i should had said that i can work 3 full days instead of wanting to cheat and have one more day for rest and projs! But whatever la, if i really lose e job, i'll just have to console myself tt i should enjoy my last yr of sch life b4 embarking on to 30 years of work, work and constant work. (=

Sch will start officially tml. hope that it will be a better sem! :)

So HAPPY! I can finally upload some pics frm e past 'events'. hee..i didnt need save e pics one by one thru the online album and instead, thanks to kuek, i manage to get e pics but too bad, too lil memory space in my thumb or else i can get more. Anyway, here they go... =)
