I'm bored shit. Stoned the whole afternoon.
Oh, at least there was the Annual American Music Awards, to keep me entertained for a while.

There's so much food my Mum bought, I doubt we would be able to finish' em!

I hope Vic and Shu can pop by tonight!=))

Mum: ' I've been telling you to clean up your room, but u nv listen. And now that ur friends are coming over, u are so automatic'.

haha.
She's been telling me to clean up since...I dont know when.

I can't believe I've cleaned up my table and pigeon holes after an eternity. I've always thought I wouldnt get down to it. Last sem's notes are finally put away ( in a carton, tucked away in the corner of my grandma's room HAHA). I'm so kiasu, I still have my A level notes and also some O level stuff kept. Next sem I reckon there'd be no more room for my notes already.

Quoting Elaine: ' we promise we won't laugh at you', when I mentioned to her that my room is in a mess.

Ok, there's so much work to do. Preparing stuff and all that. Hope tmr's NYE steamboat would be a blast with the peeps.

Oh did I mention I need more clothes for next sem?

I saw this very very pretty tweed-like bag from Roxy at Raffles Place basement.
And I like it cos its very un-roxy.
But I've been spending wayy to much!

Thai food with Vic and Sisi and as usual Ally was late.
No more restrictions, babe? Be glad! =)

Sometimes, I really think I'm sucha baby. And then, I'd need my mum and sis to help me realise tt actually, things aren't tt bad after all.

Met up with my SMU girls, Eileen and Claire, at City Hall. Before dinner it was a short tour to SMU's Sports Hall, thanks to Eileen, who had to go there to get her hard drive from her bunch of very interesting friends (according to her).

Eileen got us this little pouch from Cambodia, where she spent 3 long weeks there doing CIP. She had alot of fun and learnt alot. I'm so proud of this angel of a friend. =))

After tt it was dinner at TerraCafe which wasn't very nice cos my tomyam was v v v ordinary.I could cook it myself.
And I got myself 3 pairs of studs (Eileen has a fetish for earrings too) , and I couldnt help looking at shoes! The shoes they have everywhere are so pretty but most of them are damn high, and I dun exactly fancy v high heels.

Lots of SMU-talk along the way, but I didnt mind, cos at least I had the chance to meet up with two of my best friends!

Kiwi babyyyyyyMYLOVE!



Kiwi and me so unglam




MOS the other day with the girls.



Shoe and Vic, the babes


Okay, tts abt it.
No more clubbing. Seriously.

Kiwi is so cute, I've decided that I'm not gg out for the next few days. I'm gonna stay home and play with this mini Schnauzer.

Its funny how I always seem to bump into some acquaintance at clubs or town. I'd rather not, as I was just telling my friend the other day. Then again, Singapore isn't exactly a very big place.

Not gg out with the best friend today already, though I feel quite bad towards him. Too tired, too many late nights are harmful.

Okay, Merry Christmas and have a rocking good time.

PS banmian (yes again!) with my sis, followed by grocery shopping for my xmas minestrone soup (ha!ha!) as well as for her Christmas dinner at her friend's place.

Lugged home so much stuff, our fingers could break.

Oh, and Godiva chocolates are so pretty, if anyone wants to get me anything, could please get me that!?Thanks =)

Anw Jason didnt manage to get a table for Goodwood Park's buffet dinner, they are all fully-booked already. So it'd be vivo for our Christmas dinner tonight then!

Alrights. Gotta meet Kelly Elaine Bao Jason and Norman later!

Today was supposed to be rest day, since I've been out almost every other day of the week.
Alas, Kelly called and told me there's TQ stuff at 4pm. I was crushed. Totally.

Napped in the afternoon, and when I woke up, it was already 4pm. And I panicked. Saw Kelly's msg and I felt so bad. Thankfully, my Dad fetched me to Novena, so I didnt have to travel far to meet Kelly.

Stuff settled, headedto J8 alone to get LAST MINUTE (and I really mean very very last min) Christmas presents.

Ta-paued SubwayMYLOVE for dinner. HA.

Monday was The Holiday. hah it was pretty ok I guess, but I'd prefer Love Actually. The rain was horrible taxi qs were so bad, and I've nv waited so long for a cab before. We walked from Cine to Far East before we got a cab, after like 45mins?

Tues was dinner with Geoff and Ally at NYDC. Geoff's nuts haha he HAS to exercise and play tennis everyday else he'd feel v uneasy. He was upset cos he didnt exercise that morning and I was like ' hello its just one day. I've not exercised since after As. or more accurately, after NAFTA'. hahahahhh. He was actively promoting exercsie to Ally and I, cos we are such lazy bums we nv ever exercise. Well, his christmas wish for me is to exercise, so I'd have to try la but still...I have zero discipline.

Anyway it was a good meetup, Ally as usual, was the drama mama and huge bimbo, she was so funny we just had to laugh at whatever she said. Wanted to go over to Geoff's place at ShangriLa its so near but he has tennis the next morning, and the rain was making everyone sleepy. So yeah tts abt it. short and sweet haha.

Sat: It was vivocity with my mum and sis. Thats like, Vivo, three days straight in a row.

Sun: BBQ at Godma's was so ruined by the continuous rain.

No more tanning, no more BBQ in Dec.

I saw Mr HO (or issit Mr Yeo? the one who talks very fast and v uncle oneeee! The only other tchr in the D&T room besides the v irritating assistant who thinks he noes damn alot) THE CRESCENT D&T TEACHER at Vivo today! hahaha. Its been eons, really. ANdhe actually recognised me he waved at me ahahaha I thought it was pretty funny cos he wasn't my form teacher or what, he was just my (either Sec1/2) D&T teacher hahaha. D&T, ah, sounds so nostalgic righttttt? I sucked at it, though. My pieces were always damn screwed up.

Anyway, it was Vivo again then town today with Ghim Kui in yet another attempt to find a nice dress/gown whatever for comms ball. but ALAS, nth nice. He got himself flipflops though haha.
So I'll just wear Pet's dress la haha and my hair I dunno how also, its quite a chore to go elsewhere to do, and whats more, it isnt' like prom where u have a whole bunch of friends dressing up, gg to salons tgt to do hair/make-up whatever. So I'm like alone this time, no motivation to go to the extent of doing my hair at some salon so I think I'm gonna look like a total flop tt day sigh, when everyone's gonna look so nice and dressed up cos its such a grand affair.

Oh and I saw many familiar faces. Hah, ok tts not the point.

Gave in to green mint choc ice-cream all thanks to Ghim Kui argh I suck at discipline. So much for trying to cut down on junk food.

Oh well, I'm gonna look for recipes for minestrone soup. Homecooked minestrone is still the best.=)

Caught Eragon yesterday and its really not bad. hahahahh the dragon's so cute.

Anyway tanning with Pet today was a total waste of effort (since I had to pack alot of stuff to bring and my bag was in a mess) cos it rained so heavily after an hr plus of tanning. how anti-climax is tt u tell me. I'm not even a tone darker hahahah shit. Well, it least the mango sale at Vivocity made the trip down a lil more worthwhile la huh.

Yes Pet, no more tanning inDecember.

Met with Ally and Nic again at Vivo hahahah the world's so small!

ocs comms ball HOW?! I'm LIKE ARGH.

Its non-stop ANTM for me. Wake up, ANTM, lunch, ANTM, shopping, back for dinner, then ANTM again. haha Petrina if you're reading this, its just so much like u righttt?

Bugis-villaged this afternoon and after tt it was off to Centrepoint for foot reflexology with my mummy.HAHAHAH. I'm like how auntish please!

Headed home. then dinner. Now its ANTM. BYE.

Crystal jade lunch yesterday with mummy, grandma, and Godma and family was good, and it was shopping for random stuff after tt. hahahahh I've got what I wanted so I'm happyyyy. Cabbed down to Victoria concert hall after tt and I realised the last time I've been in there was like in what, J1? hahaha so pathetic. Then again, I'm not an arty farty person. hahahah.

Subway-ed for dinner I love it sooo much I can have them everyday. like seriously.

Anyway I think Christmas trees are so beautiful, and they're like everywhere, and it reminded me of what I mentioned to my sis a few days back.

me: eh, so chrismassy, lets set up our christmas tree this year leh.
sis: huh siao ah. don't want la.
me: oh yeah, taking it down is a chore.
sis: yeah.
me: eh nvm la, we set it up, then ask mummy to take it down for us after Christmas laaaa!
mummy: EH WHAT.NO.

See, so no christmas tree this year. Anyone who wants to help set up/take down my tree is most welcome to do so!

Newton's chng tng is like the nicest I've ever tasted. So much barley bits and alot of those small flour snow balls which I absolutely adore hahahah. The huge present from Uncle Johnny is sitting so forlornly at the side, but my Dad refuses to let me open it till Christmas sigh.

I cant wait for Christmas dinner!

Marina and CityLink has nth to buy at all. Like seriously. Anyway I walked into the Gents today like wth it was so embarrassing. Cos the Ladies was like hidden at the side so I didnt see it. And what made it worse was that the door of the Gents wasn't closed so I just walked straight ahead into it. Until I saw this guy in there and realised he was zipping his pants HAHAHAH it was damn funny I just turned 180 degrees and walked out nonchalently as if nth happened.

I think the cleaning lady saw me though. HAHAH!

It was so nice to see Claire again that toothpick after 4629r56295026 yrs! And she's still toothpicky as before PLEASE EAT MORE OKAYY? haha and no, its not cos I'm secretly jealous tt u're thinner than me! I was just kidding babe!
The wanton mee at the Hereen sucks big time. Totally. It claims to be famous but it has to be the worse wanton noodles I've ever tasted. Its so sweet, even the chilli is sweet. yuck. NOT NICE AT ALL.

haha and omgosh my photo damn ugly.


And why is the whole world asking if I'm gg Zoukout or mos? haha the first thing they say me they'd go ' eh u gg zoukout/mos?'. haha no I'm not. and I prob wont club for quite some time already. HAHAH.

ok BYE! gtg. Meeting Kelly Bao and Jason and co tonight.

I drove myself to sch this morning (with Daddy next to me of cos. HAH). It felt nice YAY.

Anway tt day SPENCER NEO KARMENG said I've lost weight. HAH. YOU BIG FAT LIAR. Cos Vic said I've put on weight.

I hope it doesn't rain on Thurs! Thurs is tanning session with Pet.

This is so random, but Phantom of the Opera anyone?

I actually slept from 230 to 6 yest afternoon, tts why I'm wide awake as an owl now although I went to bed at 445 last night. Ha.

Zouk last night was good, cos the company was great ( Vic, Shumin, Si, Kelley Bao Elaine) but it was damn freaking awfully terribly crowded. Everyone there was packed like sardines. I saw half my circle of friends there though. Heh, well, almost.
Half the NTU half the NUS population was there (hooray the exams are over). It was so crowded we were forced to leave quite early at abt 230 some supper. Think mee goreng and prata. I'm so gonna TRY to diet for the next few days. I'll TRY.

MOS tonight for QueenofQueens, and I'd better not fall asleep. I'm off to read my book. Ciao!

Town this morning to the library to get my books and off for my test after that. And thankfully, by God's grace, I managed to pass. So yay, I'm happy, and grateful. I prayed for a good and nice tester, and I got one. I prayed to stay calm, and I did.

Finally, I get to drive legally.

Meeting Ally babe in town later in the evening, and we NEED to get something nice for comms ball. Like seriously. Now, thats a headache cos its so difficult to find just what we want.

There's so much stuff gg on in the next few days its kinda exciting hohoho.
Oh, and there're the books to be read as well. QueenofQueens this Thurs I hope it wont be a bore.

Ok, gotta run. Tho I noe Ally's so tardy she'd be late. HEH.

4 papers over, and after next Mon, I'd be done with this sem. Its funny how one semester passes so quickly in Uni. In a twinkle of an eye, really.

Sch life is quite fun, really. Eating and talking and more eating. Its just that when there are tests and exams it gets pretty hectic.

I kinda can't wait for this Mon to be over. I'd be free for a night. A night. Yes. There's my second driving test the very next day and its making me so jittery. I hope a get a nice tester, and not someone horrid like the previous one.

Then after Tues I'd be really free. Parties, shopping, chillouts, DVD-ing, tanning and all sorts of stuff I can't wait.

Zouk and stayover with Vic and Shu on Wed and I am so looking forward to that.

Oh and there's Christmas too. It'd be really nice to immerse ourselves in the festive mood that is overwhelming the entire stretch of Orchard.

Note: We'll have our nice Christmas dinner won't we? Somewhere nice and oh-so-christmasy hah!

But now, its back to studying for the last paper of this sem.

Sis's 21st birthday party cum stayover chalet was alright I must say. The buffet table presented a vast variety of food, and being the glutton I always am, I found myself eating non-stop, despite being not the least hungry, maybe even full. I'm like always popping a morsel of food into my mouth half the time. blah. I really should stop eating so much.
Then there was the 2kg (I think) Lana chocolate cake which was pretty decent though not too fascinating. I had two servings of that, one at a horrifying hour of 1 plus am. In the morning when I woke up, the first thing I popped into my mouth was yet another piece of that tantalising chocolate creation. Tell me how fattening, calorie-laden, sweet, rich, creamy it is. Sigh. A moment of pleasure and a few hours of guilt.

A whole waffle cone of Ben and Jerry's to myself in the afternoon, KFC, and chips/snacks/chocolates every now and then.

And anyway, while everyone's having fun staying a second night there, I'm at home after the first night cos there's the exams next week. How nice isn't it?

Birthday was good. Love from family and friends. Despite me (us) mugging half the time today. Read more at http://www.ourdailygossips.blogspot.com about today! =))

It felt quite good to be behind the wheel again today, after like 3 mths plus. Screw the prev tester I'm still so angry with him for failing me blah.

(no) thanks to him, I've to go back for revison lessons (on a Sunday, mind you) and wait for an eternity for the next test.

I hope I dun fail again, else I'll have to wait till the cows come home for the next retest.sigh.

Anw, no surprises for guessing what colour tank top I bought ha!

I panicked when I saw the Biodiversity essay qs although it was do-able. WHY IN THE WORLD DID I PANICK and screw up my essay big time??!

I'm so disgusted with myself argh.

And I made two horrible mistakes during today's Physiology test, when most pple had like only one mistake. screwit.

And after my test, I thought all was good. Cos the Zoo was good.
I haven't been there in eons, since some Primary School excursion. YES I'M A BORING PERSON.
So it was v v good to be at the zoo. I particularly liked the otters, baby monkeys ( I can't rem the genus and epithet exactly la, they are just known as MONKEYS to the masses. haha), as well as the wallabies. Ooh so cute I wanna cuddle them. Just dun remind me that I'm supposed to be scared of animals.

I noe I've been telling everyone: ' I like dogs they are so cute but I'm scared of them.'

Its so wierd, but its true. Its just me maybe.

AND I downed a regular popcorn chicken today. Sinfu shit.

So, zoo was nice.

But after zoo, sth not so good happened and I was down all over again. It didnt help tt I only had abt 4 hrs of sleep the night before and it wasn't tt easy for me to be hyped-up and all. This horrid episode only served to wipe out my enthusiasm that had been slowly built-up over the afternoon, oh sigh.



I feel so lousy and small and insignificant. Everyone's so good. ARGH.
I need sth nice to make me feel better. Haato camomile honey clover tmr maybe.

justscrewit.

On a one-wk hiatus. Chem and SS field report, Biodiversity and Gen Physio tests. Till then.

Do I have depression or what.

I feel down half the time. And when I'm upset, I eat alot (even when I am not the least bit hungry). And when I eat so much I feel so guilty, the mental torture is tormenting. Its a vicious cycle.


Sigh.

Feeling down again. Chem, other tests, project and essay deadlines. Upcoming exams. Drive me nuts. sigh.

Amanda's eat-sleep-goong lifestyle is like HOWNICE PLEASE!?

I can't believe my sis bought the Goong dvd. Its such a major distraction please.

And I spent the whole afternoon shopping with my mum and sis. Supposed to be out with Ally but cos I thought I had TQ publicity stuff on, I cancelled the OUTING. How sad. And shopping wasn't too fruitful I only got a top despite trying on so many others. I can't fit into an xs now when I used to be able to sigh. As if I'm not down enough cos of Chemistry. Which reminds me, WHY ON EARTH WAS I SHOPPING WHEN I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE CATCHING UP FOR CHEM?!

Nuff said. BYE.

Field trip today was not bad. It was quite fun! Go to www.ourdailygossips.blogspot.com to read more abt it. haha. Now that I have this blog and THE OTHER shared blog, I don't know where I should blog, but this will be maintained, for the sake of ardent fans of this cool little blog of mine (if there even are, in the first place.haha).

Ok I'm v tired I'll keep this entry short and GOODNIGHT!

I want to watch Goong/Princess Hours/ whatever it may be called so bad. SO SO BAD. At least, its sth to look forward to every evening. I'm gonna borrow the vcd once the tests are over.

Its so fairy tale and all, and its obviouslyso unrealistic, but I still like it all the same. Since we hardly or nv see such happyendings in real life, such shows more than make up for it haha!

And it certainly does help that the cast is beautiful. Yes Shin, and the other guy I dunno whats his name in the show haha I NEED THE VCD SO BAD, cos I miss the show on some days when sch ends late.

My motivation is Goong tmr. Then again, its two whole freaking days before it airs on Mon again blah.

Almost everyday I think about it and get all stressed and upset and depressed. It means quite a bit to me. For now at least. Then again, a few mths down the road, I wouldn't be too sure if thats what I want after all. Argh. Its ironic, isn't it?

I'm not really enjoying sch alot. Maybe its partly cos of this. Maybe its my Chemistry, which I think is in a wreck. Maybe its because I dun have enough friends. To make my Uni life nicer and all. But I'm still thankful for the very few friends I have ard in sch. They make it more bearable at least. Yet, we all feel this same way, so down and all, and we start sigh-ing tgt. Knowing alot of people in sch does not equate to having alot of friends. Those hi-bye pple that we see ard in sch, we probably might not see them again after graduation. Sad, but true.

I was whining and complaining to Ally girl over a couple of sms-es this morning, I couldn't help but complain to her abt all these stuff. sigh. Someone shld just make me stop sighing, and convince me that sch isn't that bad, and things might just get better. Maybe, I should just learn not to be so uptight. Like what Ally and my mum said.


And the workload is quite crazy.

Everyone's saying its not too bad, its not too bad. I certainly hope so.

On a lighter note, the mealworms were fun and exiciting to deal with today during General Physiology practical. They squiggle and twirl and jump. How cool is that. I felt quite brave eh. Thats sch today.Need I say more?



Have u any raisins? No? How bout a date?

Stats test was pretty challenging. To me at least. Oh sigh.

I laughed at those cheesy pick-up lines that were pasted on one of the pillars in the canteen. It was hilarious shit, like totally.

After school today it was off to Island Creamery again this time with Petrina. Pulut Hitam tasted so red-beany and coconutty, but the teh-tarik ice cream was good, albeit milky. Nuttella wasn't too special.
We wanted Lana cakes, but didn't noe where the place is exactly, so I guess we'll just have them some other day.

Vivo City after that, where we met up with Kelly Elaine and Bao. Got a pathetic miserable top, thats all. Yes sigh. There really isn't alot of stuff at Vivo City actually. I mean, there're lotsa shops, but its only those few places we go to. So yeah.

SIGH.

Eventually, it might be back to square one. Despite the anticipation of everything. Those trashy media channels, to which we become slaves to. We (I) thought we (I) might have seen a little tinge of hope. I begin to see no excitement no nothing. No, its not that.

Yes, back to square. Then again, I could tell myself that maybe it'd be all good and fresh. Not so nice perhaps if we might look at it from the other side. Yet everything falls nicely for the sole individual,maybe the second. And feel better about it. Ha, the power of delusion. Wrap urself up with the blanket of delusion and forget all others. It'd be so very good. And then, yet again, blame those media channels again. Its a vicious cycle. That might never end.

But we still choose to believe. How very strange, isn't it?

The field trip wasn't all that interesting, but it wasn't all that bad as well. The mangrove tour was the nicest. Sadly, the zoom function of my camera had to die on me today of all days, and I wasn't able to zoom into the midskippers, crabs and other creatures. Annoying shit.

Petrina: there weren't any leeches. aren't u glad?heh.

I can't believe she went on and on last night about how leeches can jump onto us and suck our bloods and we wont be able to pull it off blah blah blah haha it was really quite funny and so off while we were discussing about what to bring for field trip.

Anyway, Pasir Ris isn't that far actually, despite oversleeping ( I wouldn't have woken up if not for Petrina's msg) and leaving home only at 715 I think, I still managed to reach there on time at 8 ha.

Lunch with the Pet and Bao and came home and slept like a pig. I sleep too much I eat too much. I'M SUCHA TURN OFF.

Thats all I guess.

Ohyar I change my tagboard to some cbox thing cos there were some problems with it earlier on.

Istillcraveforhoneyclovercamomile

The world's so small, chipmunk and the man actually are friends. Maybe, birds of the same feathers flock together.

My Mum and sis have been out shopping since early afternoon, while I just got home from tuition. How depressing is that tell me.

This whole week has been wierd, and like what Kelly said, this whole week hasn't been at all good, somehow we three feel down, or maybe, its only me and Kelly the two of us la.

Island Creamery Strawberry sorbet today before tuition haha, bumped into good ole Yitshan at Serene Centre with some random guy haha no la just her friend.

I'm gonna try their teh tarik and pulut hitam ice cream one day. A flavour a week, maybe.

But I'm still head over heels with the Honey clover with camomile leaves ice cream from Haato. Buy me that and I prob will feel better and more cheer-ed up.

So depressed, down, and upset, I don't know why, maybe its the Stats test next week, and the Chem test thats coming up as well. Its just so horrid the feeling, I've been sighing and hai-ing alot this week (Read: Pet, u aren't the only one, just for different reasons maybe).

I realised it started on Monday when Prof Kwong told us abt that depressing article abt the not-so-bright future of Life Science Grads, and really, a phD is needed to get a decent job in the Life Science field. yes, let us all Life Science majors SIGH.


phD? I'd be glad to be able to do Honours.


I wanna earn alot of money u know?

Sucha down week, but next wk is not gonna get any better, and the following week as well cos there's the Chemistry test. And I've been almost lost in Chemistry since day 1.


I wanna reach that far one day, just like them. I hope.

Elaine said that I eat alot haha. yesterday she implied that (the lor mee?) and today as well (the Dily's PILE of rice). haha
MAYBE I REALLY SHLD STOP BEING SUCHA GLUTTON! Sucha turn off haha.

Its funny how come I'm the only one who finishes my food all the time, whereas Elaine and Kelly they dun.

That aside, its quite fun and entertaning to have them ard, cos Uni life would definitely be a bore without them. Laughing at random stuffs esp ELAINE, (READ: THE MAN), and lotsa other stuffs. I realised, there has nv been a day, so far, without us laughing our heads off something. There's always something to laugh at it seems.

Somehow, Elaine often makes me laugh when I'm chewing on sth or drinking, so much so that I've to try VERY HARD not to choke or spit my food out at them HA.


I LIKE STRAWBERRY CRANBERRY MANGO ICE CREAM YOGHURT!

PETRINA U'RE HAVING SO MUCH FUN SHOPPING LA!!!!

I feel dizzy and my stomach feels funny. I think its the stats. I'm so lazy, Jason is helping me solve a stats qs now, and here I am using Bao's laptop to blog. sigh.

Its so quiet here in the library (duh), and everyone seems to be mugging v hard.

OK. back to stats. BYE.

Now citrus is a taboo word. At least thats what I think, cos the moment I said the word citrus, a passing bird poo-ed onto my arm. yes so gross. argh. Elaine was nice to help me wipe the shit off, haha but she held the tissue a meter away from her.haha. After washing my arm with soap I still felt so disgusted I kept cleaning my arm with tissue (courtesy of Kelly), it turned so red my skin almost came off. That was an exaggeration, but yeah, u get the drift haha. GROSS. Nigel's gonna buy 4D with my birthday digits haha.

OK, Princess Hours now haha and ANTM tonight. Motivate me please.
I ate alot of gummy bears today. Tha was so random.

The haze is getting worse, it gives me headaches, and makes me dizzy. I just had a panadol. sigh.
No distinct skyline, so fogged up, I can barely make out whats beyond the fog.

Town this morning and afternoon, but I had so many things to settle, there wasn't time for my Haato ice-cream from Wheelock. The Honey clover with camomile is just so outtatheworld. haha.
Bumped into Raphael today, it was nice seeing him again, the last time I BUMPED into him was in town also, a few mths back. And though he lives near me, I've never once seen him at the train station before. This yr, that is. haha

Tuition after that. With my headache and grogginess, it wasn't all too good.

Kate Hudson is so pretty. I feel like a troll.

Its Mid-Autumn today. A good reason to eat EVEN more moon cakes. I'm sucha glutton.
I have this nagging fear in me that one day, my other half would get very turned off by me cos I eat alot. haha.
So I asked Pon today if he would feel turned off if he ever had a gf who eats like me and polishes off her plate even when he the guy himself doesnt, and he said that he wouldn't (or most guys wouldn't) bother about such a trivial matters haha. PHEW.

Today was Prof Ip's lecture, and it was good, I enjoyed it.
I like the ice cream yoghurt outside LT27, but only when its mango, strawberry and cranberries mixed together. It makes me happy. And Elaine, and Kelly as well. HA!


Suddenly, its like back to JC days, sitting in the cafe (canteen), people-watching, and talking (albeit gossiping and bitching). Just maybe, slightly better. Then again, maybe only today.

Tuition tmr AGAIN.

Ohya, I'm back to using TAGBOARD. =))

Lunch today with my Mum and sis, and then to Taka to get mooncakes. like FINALLY haha. Got a box of assorted green tea, seasame, and mint snow skin minis from The Regent Hotel. I've been in love with the green tea ones ever since I sampled it last week. Its cliche, I noe, but I still gotta say that its heavenly, it sends me flying the moment I put a slice into my mouth haha. The skin is so soft and small, it feels like baby skin heh. Got another box of those traditional brown ones as well. I eat so much of them its a guilty pleasure.

Sigh Geography is making me upset.
Ohwells.

NUSSUPRU meeting yesterday, and I realised that the projects they undertake are so interesting and fun, V-bash, Fest Le Vie and stuff like that, I thought of getting involved, not just a member, but in the project com or whatever u call it. But its quite hard cos I'm not one who can juggle damn alot of things at one time (I think), morever I'm already in TQ. So I'm not too sure if I wanna do stuff in PRU. And I dun even noe if, in one mth's time, I'd be alone without my friend in PRU. It hard to get involved if u're alone in it, cos u tend to shy away from pple and activities. haha. At least I'm like that.


sighsighsigh.Why does mid-term break end so quickly.

I'm so stuck with my Chemistry module. Its difficult and it certainly doesn't help to have a lecturer whom I've not been able to understand since Day 1 lec 1.
And there are tests after the break. I'd rather study Biodiversity anytime. I like Benito Tan so much. And in case u're wondering, haha no, he's not young and suave. He's very grandfatherly and thats what I like about him.

I'm off for tuition in abt an hr's time sigh. There's NUSSUPRU tmr, thank goodness I dun have to go alone cos there's Petrina.

I want mooncakesssssss.

Didn't tan yesterday, cos of tuition in the afternoon. SIGH. Like Kelly said, "tied down to tuition." How true.
Anyway had TQ meeting at City Hall in the evening with the marketing people. We had it at this place New York New York that took over Nooch in City Link, that had free wireless but not-so-good-food-with-fantastic-music. Ah, so New Yorkish. haha. The couches were nice. To sleep and chill.
Missed America's Next Top Model.

Oh this morning I was watching Yan (Lin; pun intended!haha)) Can Cook, by Martin Yan, and I was practically salivating at his dishes la. The mushroom rice, daikon and mushroom soup, ahd his stir-fried brocolli w cauliflower. Oh yummaye.

Spent my entire Sat in town. Lunch at Soup Restaurant Paragon with my Mum and sis, the samsui chicken is just so good, it makes me yearn for more. After lunch, walked around till abt 3 plus before heading home, only to leave home a while later to meet Pet and Amanda in town.
Met up with Pet first to go get the cakes, which we had planned to surprise Amanda with.

So Pet was supposed to go meet Amanda first, while I loitered at Borders with the cakes, and would only go up to NYDC to meet them after Pet gave me the cue, cos I had to leave the cakes with the kitchen people and musn't be seen by Amanda.
While I was at Borders, Petrina, who had already gotten a seat at NYDC, called me to tell me that Amanda was at Borders as well! So in order to avoid her, I went up to the third level, hoping not to bump into her. I waited for so long for Pet's call, so I decided to call her first, and she told me that Amanda got lost at Wheelock and wasn't able to locate NYDC. I thought it was damn funny to get lost in such a small place! haha. While one the phone w Pet, I turned around and actually bumped into Amanda la!
I quickly covered up by saying that I had to meet a friend to to pass her sth and DIRECTED her to the second floor where NYDC is located. I dun know if she saw the cake I was holding, but I tried hard to hide it behind me heh.
Anyway after dinner, I got the waitress to bring out the cakes and Amanda was so TOUCHED.
heh.






A pity they didnt allow us to consume the cake cos it wasn't from NYDC but elsewhere, so we could only blow out the candles. Its quite stupid actually cos it wasn't as if we didnt order food from there. So we could only bring out the cake to eat along the benches in Wheelock.




We walked all the way to PS after that to meet John to catch the Banquet. The show is kind of lame, and everyone dies in that show and it ended with a pond of duckweeds (ha I'm a spoiler here I noe) and it just left all of us with question marks. John said that the show made him v angry haha.
Anyway the show is quite gruesome and incest as well. They go into the smallest and unimportant details of blood spurting out, the sword pericing right through the torso, and the head being sliced off and flying off the bridge into the river. The three of us girls could help but cringe at these scenes.

Anyway it was really good to meet up with Amanda and John cos I would otherwise hardly see them. Amanda's as funny and easily amused and of cos BLUR as ever, and as usual, John still derives pleasure in pissing me off. haha.

We really should meet up soon again. heh.

Anyway, photos here: share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=8BYtGbJu2bsQa
Still waiting for Pet to send me hers!

I ponned my first lec today since starting sch in NUS. I wouldn't have to, if I could understand the lecturer. I nv get him half the time, no, I mean, 3 quarts the time. As a result, I end up stoning during Chem lects. And the stuff we're learning now is so difficult, at least thats what I think. So its double whammy. I can't understand my lecturer plus I can't understand the Chem stuff. SIGH.
Anw, the mental torment that resulted from skipping Chem lect to join my mum and sis for lunch and shopping in town was excrutiating. I felt so bad! And there's test tmr!

OH wells. That aside, shopping (I say, retail therapy to make up for my otherwise mundane life) was nice. haha. It always has been, always is, and will always be.
Lunch at Vil'age at Hereen the new foodplace that took over Marche. The concept is very much the same, so nth new actually.

I saw the pretty Amanda lookalike in town today! She's so pretty la. And she waved to me hurhurhur.

And I'm so super upset I gotta postpone my driving re-test. Supposed to be in Oct but I have a test in sch that day. Now the earliest available date is sometime in Dec.
I'm not even able to book the Dec slot after cancelling my Oct one cos my PDL has expired! I dun exactly like to do bookings and cancellations online la. The system is so rigid.
Rushed down to Sinagpore Post to renew my PDL and reached there at ard 5.03 but they've closed for the day at 5. Sucks big time please. I need to book the Dec slot asap la or else it would be taken up (it really gets taken up fast, like in a matter of a few minutes, I've experienced it before). I hope by tmr when I book it won't be like Jan already.

Anyway, its ALL THAT STUPID TESTER'S fault la. Thanks to him for all these inconvenience now. I felt that I should have passed the first time in July la. I thought it was pretty ok, except for a few minor blundders here and there. SHIT THE TESTER WHY DID HE FAIL ME!? JUST COS I'M YOUNG?? Thats stupid shit la its not fair.


SHIT THE TESTER.

I'm so upset. There's a MAJOR problem with my nus emAIl account! I can't receive or send out any emails cos my mailbox has been CLOSED, apparently cos it has exceeded its storage limits. The thing is, I've deleted my sent itmes, outbox as well as recycle bin and have only 12 emails left in my inbox! I used to have 80 over emails in my inbox but didnt have anyway storage limit problems laaaaa this is so depressing cos in NUS alot of things are announced through emails laaaaa. I've emailed the IT personnel already I hope they would help me asap.

Yay, looking forward to the nice lunch this Sat, as well as some good shopping and maybe sourcing for sponsors ha yeah right, and nice dinner-cum-meetup with Amanda together with Petrina.
And then, next week is mid-term break. A nice time to take time off to tan. and shop. and do everything nice. =)

I'll miss Dr Benito Tan laaaaaa. Haha one week without his lecture. Oh sigh. I like him so so so much! He's so interesting and all nice and funny. If only he could be my lecturer for every module.

Oh yeah I'm so lost in CM1121. So upsetting please.

Okay I gotta study for Gen Physio now. Sigh.

I had this really huge chicken pau yesterday from the Crystal Jade Bakery though I was not feeling v hungry. I'm a glutton shit.

It was good, but it was so humongous I wonder how I could even have my dinner an hour and a half later.

And, there's a Gen Physio test next week argh.

Oh yah, Donald (korkor) won some singing competition!haha. I watched the video for his semi-finals and he and his friend did this very nice duet. The song sounds nice haha. Can go to his blog to see if u want.

I cycled so much during night cycling that day, I MIGHT not cycle for the next 6 months.

I'm kidding. heh.

And so I'm now down with flu a bad throat and an on-off fever which sucks cos I feel drowsy half the time and have been sleeping ALOT in sch in lects in tuts and at home. sucks big time.
Anw I think its cos of the DAMN alot of almond chocs I ate last week. sigh.

I wanna get well soon so I can eat 1A curry puffs and more almond chocs. Jason and Samantha bought the puffs today from the bazaar outside LT27 and I was so tempted to buy also but sigh I didn't wanna make my throat worse.

And Petrina if u're reading this, haha I'll go find out abt the guide cookies.

I've been snacking on semi-sweet almond chocolates and cocktail nuts NON-STOP. Its becoming an addiction argh. I saw this girl yesterday from my lab group who resembles Amanda and suddenly I realised I haven't met up with her in ages and I should do so soon!

Night cycling tonight. And I still have tons of work to be done.

Old songs.

I'm so so so hungry my stomach's hurting la. I had like yong tao foo soup without noodles at 5 plus and didn't have dinner after that except for a pack of almond chocolates. Attended the NUSSUPRU thing with Petrina, it ended late and I got home feeling so so hungry I had a slice of wholemeal bread and a glass of yogurt juice but still very hungry.
And most of the time, if not always, I feel hungry during lectures. blah.
No more Prof Ho Bow now cos Microbio is over. I dun understand him half the time, but he is so so so nice, the way he speaks and all, he's sucha grandfatherly figure I just feel so warm with him around! But Prof Benito Tan is quite a funny guy I'm sure I'll be awake during his lecs he's like such joker and he speaks with this very interesting accent it actually sounds quite cute and nice to a certain extent. haha.

I'm quite upset that my TA for my Stats can't teach la. She doesn't show the least enthusiasm in teaching and I can't understand why she's trying to say and all. sigh. So I was like sleeping during ST tutorial that day. SIGH. 8 am lecture that morning plus her monotone drone as well as her I-can't-underrstand her-at-all explanation of the solutions certainly can't go well together.

Why do I seem to spend most of my money on food.

And I left my phone at home this morning la. I felt so lost without my phone in sch from 8 am till 9 plus pm.

Anyway, I think I have some skin allergy. I think, there's some sort of rashes on my cheeks. shucks.

Oh.
And I realised I kinda like Dilys. Like, yeah. ha. And I like smart guys.

Finally some nice stuff in sch.

DnD's over, and I didnt spend a single cent. haha. Thats something to be proud of.

Yesterday afternoon was town for lunch with my Mum and sis and some shopping ( I can nv get enough of it, can I?!) so yay. But Mum says shopping too much too often is a bad habit, so I gotta stop spending. Though my lovely mum pays for my stuff but still I shld cease spending so much. Its really not good. But sometimes it can't be helped cos shopping's sucha nice and lovely therapy it nv fails to cheer me up. (esp now that PSLE is coming and tuition is making me depressed big time, I have to tutor my kids like almost four days a wk how sigh-inducing is that u tell me).

I need time for myself and my homework!

Anyway back to the DnD, the food was ok. Not that fantastic though. Everyone was v v dressed up it was like prom all over again, and there I was in a paisley print dress looking severly under-dressed next to the hordes of gown-clad girls with pretty hair and make-up all done up nicely. haha. But eventually it is the company that matters la, haha. So I wont say it was THAT bad it was ok actually.

Every Sunday I feel upset cos I think of the tuition 4 times a wk and I just wanna scream out loud.

PSLE hurry over!

Shopping today w Elaine proved to be futile. Like, totally. Not a single dress caught my eye, and cos I had to rush for tuition, we didnt manage to go to Bugis. Town has nice stuff, but somehow, not my kind. Its like, I take v v long to decide. I'm a fussy person la. sigh. And so I am now left with nothing to wear for dnd. I can't fit into my prom dress now, it has become v v tight I practically had to squeeze myself into it. Scary to think that just eight months ago I could fit prefectly fine into it, and even had to alter it. sigh sigh sigh. I grew fatter but I still eat like a glutton.

And I think I'll just wear this other dress that I've got la. I bought it months back but didn't have the chance to wear it. Its totally informal and not that nice it doesn't go with the theme at all, but heck, I have tuition tmr AGAIN and no time to go look ard somemore. How upsetting, and oh, I have no shoes to match. haha. I'm deciding between the wedges or the bronze pumps or the brown heels, or my golden-bronze madrid la, but I still think all looks damn funny with that super-hard-to-match dress. I think I'll look like crap cos everyone's gonna wear nice dresses.
This sounds bimbotic yeah I noe, but, its a girl thing I guess. heh.


Hey, but looking on the bright side, at least I can save up. heh. Its only one night anyway.

Tuition at Bugis today saw me gg to Bugis village to buy MORE earrings. Petrina got me started on the earrings there la. They're so pretty and all, and also quite cheap. haha.

Its like almost morning its time for breakfast. but I'm still feeling very full from the beehoon soto I had at like what,0230? Its so super sinful and crazy after eating it I kept telling everyone why in the world did I even eat after 12. Ok. Oily stuff plus alcohol would mean my calorie intake is v high. This is depressing. Prob not gg clubbing anymore until next yr already. Too much alcohol makes one fat. But Jason said maybe we'll go after our Sem 1 exams.
The bash at Zouk today was ok. The fashion show was not bad, but the programmes ended a lil too early and it didnt help that the music was bad bad bad. House and techno or whatever. Any lousy house-y music to me is techno la. heh. Rnb would be gd but too bad it was techno all night. If not for the wonderful company and alcohol it would be a sure bore. The music was so terrible we left at like 2 plus and walked over to the prata shop for supper/breakfast. Me, Shumin, Baoting, Elaine, Jason and Edwin. After which Kelvin came later.


On a sidenote, I need to get more clothes I nv seen to have enough of them. I'll run out of clothes to wear to sch sooner or later la. haha.

OK bye. I think I might go slp now.

grams grams grams. I got two packets of roasted grams from Carrefour today yay. yummy stuff, aren't they?

Oh yeah. I cant tag I dunno why.
so here.

Jojo: Hi whos this? =)
Claire: Hey darling I do hope things get better!
Xueli: Haha nope I didnt drink. I didnt even fold cranes. SIGH.

I feel that I dun know whats going on during lectures and tutorials. Argh the feeling sucks. like totally. I'm in sucha total complete loss. I wonder how come pple think Uni life is fun and that they've been saying once u've cleared ur A Levels, Uni is juts gonna be a breeze. Yeah, I dun deny Uni life is fun, the activities and all, but yet I feel so stressed up cos I dun understand my lectures and tutorials. So if this is gonna go on, which I hope NOT, I definitely would not be goona enjoy my Uni life. I've forgotten my A Level stuff, and some stuff weren't even taught before last time in JC, and the lecturers go so fast and touch only surface stuff I wonder if its just the introduction and they will go deeped in time to come or thats all the lecturer is gonna do for that particular lecture topic. Ah, independent learning. Little/no notes. Doesn't sound good does it? Independent readings, and initiative to go read up on our own. I feel so argh/blah/whatever. I prefer to be spoon-fed like in school last time. Ok I am spoilt. But everyone too. We all want to be supplied with notes. But I guess we have to learn. We dun have a choice do we? I hope things would get better with time!

Anyway the week in short:
Mon: First day of sch, tuition in the aft, back to sch for karate.
Tues: No sch
Wed: Lecture
Thurs: Lectures, then lunch in town with Mummy and sis at fish and co so sinful but oh-so-nice, Union bash at Zouk which was fun but yet argh. dun get me started.
Fri: 8am lecture which I was so sleepy throughout cos of the night before but luckily it was just an introductory lecture. Tutorial was quite bad cos I couldn't get what my TA was teaching.



So basically, the first week if sch wasnt too good. Stress over balloting and stuff, and also difficulty in understanding lectures and tutorials. sigh.

Too lazy, tired, and stressed to blog. I'm not too sure what I'm stressed abt, but I just feel stressed. oh well. STRESSED!
Sch is stressful. No peace of mind.

Rag Day yesterday. We lost, but there's always next year. So yeah.
It was supposed to be the fireworks after that but we were all to shagged we missed it. Sleep-deprived folks. I got home showered slept then had dinner then slept then woke up to brush teeth before sleeping again then breakfast then lunch then slept again before heading to town. That basically sums up my Saturday and Sunday afternoon.

Went for alive at Somerset for a while, met Justin and Eugene we walked ard Cine for a while before I headed to get my stuff.

Sch starts tmr and I still have to go give tuition before gg back to sch again for karate. haha.

Meeting Ally darling and Geoff whom we havent met up with in eons for dinner this Tues at HV if all goes well. That is, if none of us has any last min stuff. Which I certainly hope not!

I had like two and a half almost three popiahs yesterday. Thats like almost 15 pieces.

I'm actually looking forward to Saturday, I wanna see how Rag Day is really like.

Beeeeyoutiiifoooooooool fireworks last night. I particularly liked the colourful explosion of colours that so wonderfully lit up the sky. Oh and the pretty golden dust was awesome too.

In the morning it was tuition at Rebecca's and then to sch for rag. I'm actually quite glad that there's a bus from her place to YIH. =). After rag it was off the meet some of the flaggers at Boon Lay for dinner. 198 from AYE to Boon Lay is one crazily long journey, probably cos it was the peak hour, but seriously, I probably would not want to take 198 all the way to JP anymore, if I have a choice. 95 to BV, and then the MRT all the way to Boon Lay would be a better idea. I've nv been much of a bus person I prefer mrt-ing. hah.
Anyway back to the crazily long journey on 198, the bus was pretty crowded. I left sch at 5.55 and I only reached there at 7.00 how terrible is that!? Boon Lay is totally like Thailand to me, maybe even China.

Popiah for dinner, and half a bowl of banmian. I eat like a glutton, dun have to remind me.
After dinner it was off to City Hall to catch the fireworks, but we talked so much on the train we were like totally in a world of our own we missed the station, and it was only like abt 10 mins to the start of the fireworks display. So we rushed like mad horses and alas the fireworks started almost the moment we arrived at the padang, quite good a timing yes?

After that it was lotsa talking talking and more talking over mos 'is-it-low-fat-milk?' milk tea before heading home.

On a sidenote, I can't really believe sch is starting in less than a wk's time. Ah, back to the monotone of sch life. No more bumming ard and slacking.

Okayy, I'm off to cut my hair soon.

I am so blessed to have such a nice mother. Nope, correction, nice parents I mean. I'm really lucky to have parents who love me so much, parents who keep the best for me. Although I dun actually open my mouth to say all these, in my heart I really love them alot too. And I thank God for my wonderful parents. =)

Oh yeah, my Mum paid for my blackraisins. haha!

FIC today. Saw many familiar faces. Finally saw Cali and Mush after oh-so-long.
Town in the late afternoon after leaving sch, to return my books. I ended up shopping, but hey, I did return my books so kudos to me. I couldn't resist gg to Isetan Wisma to LOOK at the Blackraisins Hawaiian collection. The've just totally pretty. And hence, I succumbed to temptation and decided to get them. I spent close to an hr choosing and deciding on the colours and the petal patterns la. Got the rubberband and a pair of earrings, so YAY!.


Tuition tmr at 1030am. THATS SO EARLY!

And so I didn't return my library books though its due two days later and I doubt I'll even have the time or motivation to go down to return. Ahh.

So I nua-ed the afternoon away. Except when I had to go down to Grandma's place. Seriously I nua too much I feel like I'm turning into slime. And esp so, when my mum had to remind me that I am only 18, so I'm not supposed to be so nua. Oh man.

Subway for lunch. I can nv get tired of it, can I? With only a few hrs of sleep last night, it was only natural that I kept yawning during tuition just now. But at least I wasn't on the verge of dozing off anytime. Shagged yes, but not exactly v sleepy. Rather, it was THE STUDENT who was dozing off. Seriously. She was like half-asleep while doing her workings. So obvious. Cos she probably didn't know what she was writing and doing, and neither could I make out the numbers. ( Yes, I noe, cos I've experienced this before when I was a student. Quite a few times in fact.) And so, seeing that she was already half-way in dream land, I told her to go wash her face. This is not the first that she's dozing off. Sigh. So its probably either I'm a very boring tutor, or she's really tired.

So..

Me:'' You're very tired issit?"

Student:" I slept at 11 last night."

Hmm.

Okay, maybe I'm a really boring tutor.


FIC this Mon. And man, formal wear required. I've nv liked wearing formal wear, at least not at this age. And I'm not sure if my definition of formal year is even considered formal wear. blah.

Using Justin's laptop now. Stayed over last nite in sch and slept at 5. And there's tuition at Valerie's later. Shit. I'm so not looking forward.

I screwed up my Havainnas while using the silver paint yest. It a tinge of silver now. I've half a mind to paint the other silver as well.




I'm selfish sometimes. And more often than not, I expect things to go my way. Shit. I think my character sucks. ha!ha!

Late nights these few days, cracking my brains over what modules to take and stuff like that. Timetable-planning has nv been so stressful. I think. Hope everything goes well.


I'm hungry now. Ah!

Matric fair yest. It didn't take too long, but the wait to collect the laptop was like eternity. Esp when u're hungry and tired. I've half a mind to join karate or aikido, since I've wanted either one since ages ago, and I mean, real long ago. But I wanna join floorball too. Ah, we'll see how things go.

I have no idea how to configure my laptop to receive my home's wireless thingamajig or whatever it may be called, forgive me I'm an IT nut. oh sigh.

A hot chocolate or nice English breakfast, and a good book.
Dim warm lighting.
Nice blue couch.
Gold 90.5.

It was almost the same sometime last year.

But it was coffee instead.
And a good book there wasn't. A stack of Bio notes rather. (or was it Chem notes I can't really rem)
Nice blue couch remains.
The pitter patter of the rain and the chingaling of the wind chime made good music.
It was windy, serene, and all nice, nonetheless.

I made a poem on that, lost somewhere out there in the archives. Somehow, that scene, remains in my mind.

A nice lavender oil would be perfect. And if only we could just live our lives like that everyday (the former of course. I would rather a good book).



Unappreciative thoughts that clouded your mind,
If it even struck you, Your Highness,
That you weren't the one who cleared the dirt and grime.
Why, a Highness you are not,
Maybe just a brat of the lot.
The few yrs, just let them fall.
But that probably would spell the end of it all.

I've been chip-ping alot. Tapioca chips, Belinjo chips, the old-fashioned-ah-soh fish crackers, potato chips, and oh, tonnes of cashew nuts as well.
Went to sch today in an attempt to look at the laptops but alas I wasn't allowed entry cos my matriculation is only tomorrow. Was hoping I could look at them, and then if I decide they dun suit me, I'd buy from SimLim, like tonight or sth. Oh wells. Tmr then. Ragged abit, before meeting my Mum and sis at Suntec. Wanted Soup Restaurant for dinner but we had no patience to wait for them to open for dinner so settled for Kenny Rogers instead. Oh and I bumped into Ally at the taxi stand of all places. And its like, she was on the phone with me just 2 hrs or so before. I'm just easily thrilled I guess.

I like Class 95 and Gold 90.5 so much. I think I'm old. Okay, I feel old.

Oh, I changed my layout. In case u dun already know.
Someone pls buy up my Rapture ticket!

Attended the Dean's Welcome Tea with Ally and Aishah yesterday and it actually proved to be quite useful. =) Glad I went for it.

I'm so glad I've met up with my bestest bestest friend today after oh-so-long. She's sucha darling she helped me so much in my search for a laptop. Hmm, she knows so much abt all these IT stuff which I can nv understand. I'm just not tech-savvy I guess. Heh. So anw we went to Funan and we walked around looking at laptops and such, and more or less I've decided on what to get. But I'll still go look at those offered during matric fair first. And needless to say, its sth similar to what she has. HAHA! She was sucha great help I just can't thank her enough. But well, thats what friends are for eh? heh!

Anw during lunch before that she talked to me abt some stuff and it really made me feel like I'm not brave enough. Not brave enough to step out of my comfort zone to try new things. Sigh. I just hope all goes right, and I'll get to do what I like ultimately. Sth she said made me realise how great a friend she is, and has been, to me. She was like "Joyce, I dun want you to come to me four years later, and tell me that u've wasted your four years". At that instant I almost teared, cos I've all along been very bothered abt my course of study, and my career path. I'll make the best out of what I've already decided and chosen, and hopefully, everything will just fall in nicely. I wanna plan well for my future, my everything, just like she has. I'm so thankful for the friend I have in her. 6 yrs and counting. :)

So after that we headed to Raffles City to look at wallets, but no nice ones so we went to town instead, where I got this wallet which I really liked. And she agreed with me!. Happy and satisfied, we then went to Arab/Bussorah St where she wanted to show me this shop that sells really cheap ribbons and stuff like that, but it was closed! Ahhh so we just walked along the shophouses there and hey it was pretty crowded! The place reminds me of Malacca! But still I didnt manage to find those pretty cafes and vintage shops oh sigh =(. I'll explore the place again next time, hopefully, cos we were in rushing to go to Sim Lim to look at more stuff.

Oh and I walked all the way to Little India train station from Sim Lim laa it was so tiring esp when we've walked for like almost the entire afternoon, and from Arab street to Sim Lim okayyy maybe its cos I'm just lazy, but hey, whats new? heh.

I'm so in love with the Blackraisins Hawaiian earrings I saw at Wisma they're so pretty and sweet I really wanna get them but its stupid to pay $32.90 for a pair of earrings ahhhhh! But they're just so beautiful! I nearly bought their rubberband and it costs $17.90! shit. I didnt buy in the end cos $17.90 for a rubberband is just crazyyy laaa. But Blackraisins Hawaiian just have the prettiest and nicest earringsss and rubberbands and hairpins oh mannn shit but they're so ex. I'll just dream of them tonight la!
http://www.blackraisins.com/access-main.htm

And I've ordered my Madrid online already like finally, I hope I dun get the size wrong this time, and come soon pls!

And so the winner of Miss Reef is quite hot actually. Nice bod, nice face, she certainly reminds me of Barbie ball. Oh and something worth mentioning is that I saw Shan Wee at Red Dot Traffic (or issit Red Dot Musuem? ah whatever.) yesterday at the Miss Reef Bikini contest. Not that I find him cute or what, just that er, cos he's a celebrity, haha I'm sucha typical Singaporean aye!!??. Actually, I dun really like him.

Oh and the hunks from the National Water Polo Team who did the fashion show were hot hot hot. A pity I didn't manage to snap a few pictures of them. Haha maybe we girls were TOO engrossed by their hot bods and good looks la. Shit, they are so damn hot. And cute.

Wisma Flash and Splash Surfergirl Crew



Flash and Splash Wisma



Me and Xueyi



Babes

I totally can't stand pple who think that they're damn good, and well above others. No one is good enough for them, or so they think. Seriously puts me off.

Ah, the superficiality of it all. Makes me wonder if anyone is ever true.

Anyway, I'm sorry Julian Hee. I'm now a 'Hey-Alvin-Ng-is-totally-cute' person.
Ha, bye Julian. U're still cute, but Alvin Ng is cuter.

I'm actually looking forward to the 9 O clock show every day. Teeheehee.

Oh and ya, SOW clashes with Rapture. And the bad thing is I've already bought my Rapture ticket. Anyone wants to buy please buy from me cos I dun wanna waste my money la. wah shit shit shit.

Miss Reef Bikini party tomorrow night, I'm hoping its gonna be fun with lotsa hot babes and hunks from the national water polo team maybe. haha!

Ciaos. There's tuition later on.

Shopping with Mummy and sis today was really nice. It was a satisfying one. =). I love my new wedges and that pretty orangy red top. yay.
Dinner was good. Oh and I think my cousin has grown better-looking. heh.

Dinner was good. Oh and I think my cousin has grown better-looking. heh.

Stayover that day was ok. Ragged till quite late like 3am, but at 2am we were so hungry the few of us walked over to NUH to eat fishball noodles but it was so guilty eating such food at 2am.

Just got back from church, and its shopping later with my sis yay I really really crave for some shopping and then tonight its Grandma's birthday dinner at our all-time favourite restaurant haha ahhh the tomyum soup.

I love weekends. I dun have to give tuition during my weekends and I'm dreading this week, esp Wed. Yes this Wed is gonna suck. Well, kinda. I'm so not looking forward. shit.

Yes, SHIT.

NUS medical check-up tmr morning, and rag after that. At least ragging adds some colours to my otherwise boring tutor's life. Ok correction, my life is not boring, just that giving tuition is. And so that makes it boring. Anyhows, probably will be staying over tmr with the rest. So maybe, YAY. heh.


And yeah one more thing bad about giving tuition is the commitment. I feel so tied down by it, its making me depressed and upset. I can't wait for them to finish off with their final yr exams, and maybe it'll be some time before I take up some more students. I need time for myself to settle down to sch life.
It doesn't help that my students dun seem to be paying attention to me half the time, and more often than not, I'm just solving the sums for them la. When asked if they understand, they nod their heads, but sometimes I'm really doubtful. Sigh. Double Sigh. The agony of a tutor.

Its bad. And disappointing. But I have alot to say. To defend and speak up for myself. I just felt it was quite unfair.
Ok enough of that. Life goes on. Going on and on abt it just makes me wanna cry.

Finally got 3 books from the libraryto while my time away.
Oh and I've received my matric package already. There're so many documents, its like almost confusing. I still can't decide between FST and Life Sciences, but we'll just see how things go. I think the results of the FST selection will be out on 23rd July. If I get selected I'll think abt it again. If not, then I'll just do Life Sciences.

There's SOW coming up, and sigh, I gotta rearrange my tuition lessons. I just hope the parents won't be too pissed with me.

Alvin Ng makes my eyes wanna pop out.

Tanning session at Sentosa this afternoon. Lovely afternoon with good sun. Cycled a fair bit too.
Ah, sand sea sun. Niceeeeee.

OCC-ed yest with the raggers and flaggers. It was pretty much fun, though it was very very exhausting as well. We were like dirty, sweaty, and maybe smelly and germy after the collection. I mean, we all know how dirty old newspapers, old clothes, old electrical appliances and stuff like that are. The 67 of us covered abt 60 blocks which I felt was pretty impressive. heh. The best part of yest though, was the *ahem* 'sharing' and 'bonding' session during dinner time over soba and donburi. It was helluva interesting one.

I've half a mind to head to the library to get some books cos I really really need some books to keep me occupied and entertained.

Tuition again today. And my student keeps changing the timing. SIGH. Anyway, photos are up under '080706'.

Sick. Fever and sore throat. Tuition at Rebecca's today wasn't exactly very nice. She wanted me to teach her a new Science topic, which meant that I had to talk alot. The pain was so bad. And she almost finished my freshmint chewing gums. Haha.

Ok. Off to sleep soon.

Decided not to stayover in sch today. Haha. There's the 9 pm show on Ch 8. So what if I watch that. I'm a "ok la-Alvin Ng-is-not-bad-but-Julian Hee-is-cuter" person. Heh.

My sore throat is back. Sigh. Thinking if I should go for rag tmr. But I've got tuition at Farrer Road in the evening, its near Serene Centre, and I seriously have no idea how to get there from sch. I can only get there from my home. See how la. Heh.


Ok, off to oogle at Julian Hee now. =))

Had my second driving revision lesson this morning. It scares me to think that my test is just next week. Its so stressful!
Anyway rushed to sch after that for rag. I thought I'd be late, but it last (no surprises), the rest were even later. Haha.

Its so annoying that the parents of my tuition kids dun reply me sometimes when I ask them when they want their lessons. Like HELLO, I need to plan my schedule also la. It sickens me. Totally.

Sch tmr for rag, and sigh sigh sigh, TUITION after that.

Back. From the stayover at Vic's house.
The uniform party at DXO was good, good drinks, great music, nice company.=)
It was a pity, though, that we didn't stay till closing. Oh, many ex-Saints too. Will load pics when I'm not so lazy. haha.

Uncle's house later. oh sigh. There's Shandy the BIG DOG there. I'm so terrified of her I'm not looking forward to going there later.

Anyway, here's one. For now.

Back from Bangkok. I have so much to say. Everything from the scorching hot weather, to the very very cheap food, to the terrible traffic, and also the poor living conditions of most locals. But lazy to blog. Haha. So ask me abt it when u see me.
Thai ladies are very good-looking. haha.

Anyway, I didn't get alot of stuff from Bangkok la. Not as much as Vic when she went. That girl bought like so much stuff they had to buy a few of those striped canvas garang guni bags to store their stuff. Well, for me, I could stuff all into just one big tote bag. Haha. The things there are cheap, esp when u can bargain, but they aren't really my kind. Not the kind of clothes I'd wear anyway. So no point buying alot even if they are cheap. Use the money and shop here in Singapore. Haha.

Oh, the pple there are very poor. So pitiful. Apparently a uni grad there earns only abt 7000 Baht a mth, which is ard S$300. Thats very little! I think some of us here have more for allowance. Most of the houses along the streets of Bangkok look pretty run-down. Thatched zinc roofs that look like they could collapse anytime.

The weather there is also very very hot. I could feel the heat penetrating my skin.
The traffic there is terrible, the roads are like jammed most of the time.
The food there is very very cheap. Go there must eat alot. Haha.

SO sian, gotta give tuition tmr. Oh sigh.

The steamboat dinner was terrible. One of the worst steamboat that I've ever had. We should have eaten somewhere nicer. The place was so cramped up, and it was stuffy like anything else. I felt sticky and so uncomfortable, even frustrated. I've nv felt to pek cek eating steamboat before la. Haha. And because the whole place was so cramped up, I had to keep shifting my chair to let others pass. And hey, the place wasn't exactly very hygenic either. As a result of the uncomfort, I was eating vegetables and mushrooms the whole time. All sorts of mushrooms. And corn. And meatballs. Thats abt it. I couldn't wait for everyone to finish so we could get out of the place asap.

Anyway, I ate so little I was so hungy at night. So I had a slice of organic rice cracker. Yeah, just minutes before I blogged. Thats at like 12.40 am. Unhealthy. SHIT.
I can't get to sleep. Cos I've been sleeping the whole time. I slept for a few hrs this afternoon. See, I do nth but sleep. haha. I'm sucha bum. Like seriously. Now I can't get to sleep.
Bangkok tmr! Yay! Its gonna be shopping shopping shopping and food food food. =))

I've been rotting at home. I wanted to give tuition since I've got time today but the parents of two of my two students hardly reply me. And even if they do, its like after a few freaking hours. This happens half the time anyway. Sigh. I won't treat my child's tutor this way in future. I think. haha.

Anyway bumming ard at home is getting quite boring, but when I go out, I end up spending. Next week is gonna be quite good though, cos I'd be in Bangkok for some shopping and food. Yay. I'm leaving on the 3rd and will only be back on the 6th.
After returning, its gonna be back to giving tuition (SIGH).

Today's sucha boring day. Lunched out with my Mum and I had half a mind to borrow some books from the library cos I finished the other one already, but I was too lazy. So here I am at home blogging but I think I'm gonna sleep soon. Napping kills time. Thats what I always do anyway.

Back from camp. And I've been doing nth but sleep. Thats what EVERYONE does when they come back from camp anyway.

Camp was ok. First day was pretty boring, but I must admit that things got better as the days passed. Haha I actually enjoyed the amazing race part. Cruise dining was one whole new experince altogether. My secret pal was not too bad, though there were awkward moments when we didn't have anything to say to each other. But hey, there was food, so food saved the day. I'm quite thankful my sp wasn't some wierd person, which Pet and I had feared so much initially. The whole thing went quite ok I guess!
The bash at momo that followed the dinner was pretty much fun. After the first part of the programme, that is. But the depressing shit is the calorie intake. Damn one tequilla shot has like dunno 125 or 250 calories. Sinful shit.

NUS food is damn cheap! I'll look forward to eating in sch. haha. I aspire to try the food from every faculty maybe. HEH!
The soon kueh is so nice it rocks my socks. :))

I'm quite lazy to pack for camp. No. not quite. VERY.

Check this out. Interesting. http://re-education-.blogspot.com


Dun miss me! I'm gonna be away for my faculty camp from the 26th to 30th June!. Which means no updates for almost a wk. But I'm still contactable. Haha. =))

Family lunch today at Jacks Place, erm ,with Donald as well. Haha. So it was a fine lunch with Dad, Mum, The Sis and Her Boyfriend. Heh.
After lunch Dad went off to work well the rest of us walked around town for a while.
Saw Vivien working at some cafe at Paragon, and she flaunted ner new tattoo which she just had it done yest. It looks pretty good I must say. Her voice still as high-pitched as ever. haha!

Anyway I've half a mind to put my brand new birks up for sale on ebay. Amanda ordered it for me last week, and it arrived like 3 days ago, which is really fast. A pity it didn't fit me THAT well. so I would rather sell it off than wear an ill-fitting footwear. AHAH.
Does anyone want to buy, to save me the trouble of putting it up on ebay!? Its BRAND NEW!
Birkenstock Madrid, in Size 38, Regular. Its the golden bronze one. Easy to match! And it saves u the trouble of buying online and the agony to found a big group to waive the shipping fees. I'm only selling it for S$56! and Its BRAND NEW!


I'm like packing for my camp halfway, there're tons to things to bring, believe me. SHIT.
OK, off to continue packing. Ciaos!

Lunch yesterday was at the Korean Restaurant at Hereen instead of Marche cos Marches is closed for renovation. I enjoyed the lunch nonetheless, it was good ;).

The party at night was er, pretty pathetic and jinxed at first. I walked so much I developed blisters. Since my sis drove us there, we parked our car at the Liang Court car park before heading to wards MOS to get out chop first. After which, during queueing, Anne and Michelle realised they left their IDs in the car, and this meant that we walked all the way back to the car park to get their stuff. After all was well, we got our MOS chops, we then walked again to Gotham Penthouse to take advantage of their free flow for ladies. We were still thinking we could get free drinks there and head back to MOS to party. But alas, it so happened that there were some live performances at Gotham last night, which meant no free entry plus no free flow for the ladies. Our last resort was then obar/dbl O cos over there there's free flow for ladies sure. So we walked from Clarke Quay all the way to Mhd Sultan where dbl O was. It was like far. Ok, maybe not that far, but still blister-inducing. Only to realise that they've changed their regulation and age limit to 20. So that meant I couldn't get in. YES. Jinxed Night, wasn't it? I insisted that I've been in a before, the most recent being last mth, but they just refused to let me pass through. Since we had already wasted so much time of the night, my sis convinced the rest to go in and drink all they wanted, while she kept me company outside. So the two of us were just waiting outside, and watching maybe abit of live soccer from the bar next door. I was upset cos I had no free drinks. haha.

After they've had they fill, we walked all the way back to MOS. And that was when the night got better. Too bad I had to spend on my drinks there. I was still hoping that I wouldn't need to spend a single cent since it was ladies night at most clubs. The rnb at Smoove was pretty good, and we had much fun. Still, half the night was wasted walking here and there. heh.

Slept at ard 4.45 last night, and I'm already up. heh. I dun actually sleep for very long, but I take afternoon naps.

But too bad there's tuition later. AIYERRRRRR. Ciaos!

Its so pathetic I still haven't gotten down to tanning, and furthermore its been raining these few mornings. Oh wells, rain rain go away come again and another day.

I crave Korean dramas suddenly. I quite desperately want to watch that new drama of Rain, but I gotta wait till my uncle comes over to pass me the vcd which is I dunno when. ARGH. And since sch hasn't started yet I thought I might as well immerse myself in the Korean drama frenzy. yet again. Miss those times when I just did nth at home except watch Full House, as well as that ever-hilarious My Name Is Kim Ssm Soon. Hey, Korean dramas, here I come.
Oh but I would gladly appreciate anyone who has some good Japanese dramas to lend me too. Japanese or Korean, anything, just not those cutsey Taiwanese idol-dramas. I can't ever appreciate them. Oh well, maybe I used to, haha, rem the Meteor Garden craze? First and last I hope. heh.


Ok, I'm gonna read now. Gotta bring my Grandma to town later and we'll meet up with my sis and aunt and 2 lil cute twin cousins for Marche later. YAY. Think: bacon and cheese crepes.

After lunch is tuition. AH, SAD. And at night it'll be off to Gotham Penthouse with the sister and her friends. =) Hope it'd be a fun night though.

The UnderNoRoof-cum-Famine Camp yesterday was quite fun. It wasn't as dull as the dry run the week before.

I recently suddenly started to brood over my A Level results. I had wanted more than an ABB, and I definitely felt that I deserved better grades, esp Bio, which I studied really hard for. I had A for Bio prelims and I remember clearly Mrs Ang telling the class that those who got an A for prelims would surely secure and A for A Levels. Not true at all. But I really did study very hard for Bio. It had been my best subject all along (I think). Some pple might think that I should be thankful, and even feel lucky to have gotten such grades. But hey, I certainly feel that I deserve more. If only they even knew how hard I studied right from the start of Year 2, and esp towards the A Levels. And u noe what, I totally hate it when pple think that Science is a dumping ground, and for medicine rejects, just cos their intake is big. Just a few days ago when I told my friend that I'm gg to NUS Science, he was like " huh, why? u got in by random or what? ". I was totally pissed.

Well, I didn't get in by random. I chose it. It was my first choice for NUS. I didn't study like mad for my A Levels only to get into a dumping ground u know? Definitely, its not as prestigious as Medicine or Law, but still, its not some lousy course. And I'm very sure about that. I'm feeling ok about going into Science, though Mass Com is interesting too. Okay, dun make me go on abt my dilemma over NTU Mass Com and NUS Science. haha. We've had enough of that.

Yeah, Science is not a dumping ground. Its just popular, maybe? haha.

I'm so so so upset. I suspect I might have gotten the size of my birks wrong. and Amanda has already ordered! shit. I'm so depressed. and disillusioned. I really really hope it fits alright when it arrives. I can't waste my money! SHIT.


Watched the Oprah Winfrey Show this morning and the topic was on weight loss. haha. I'm feeling ABIT motivated now. To drink lots and lotsa water and to not eat after 7.30. Then again, I dun think I'm disciplined enough. At least not as disciplined as MY FRIEND. (think: yogurt for breakfast, 2 small pieces of organic rice cakes with ham and greens for lunch, and a granola bar and a salad for the rest of the day).

Her diet is so healthy, but I think I'll die if I follow her. I mean, I'll be hungry ALL THE TIME surviving on so little. Hmm. But I'm already trying to cut down on carbo (note: TRYING). haha. Its partly cos going easy on carbo is better for the body, its not so much to lose weight. okay, maybe its also cos I wanna go back to being 45kg la.

But dun worry, I wont become aneroxic or bullimic. I love food too much. At the most I'll just feel damn guilty and keep complaining after eating something sinful thats all. I wont purge.heh.

I ate alot today anyway. SIGH. If only I could be half as disciplined as MY FRIEND.
I had all these today:
1. a BIG bowl of oats with cereal. really BIG bowl (breakfast cum lunch)
2. a glass of yogurt juice
3. an orange
4. 3 sushis (tea-time)
5. rice (dinner)
6. an apple


Anyway while out with The Friend today, I got swayed by her, and bought a packet of organic brown rice crackers. Hey, its only 8 calories per piece. haha. I'm sure I would feel happy eating it. teeheehee.


Oh yeah, I watched Howl's Moving Castle this morning! like finally. haha. Much nicer than Ice Age 2, which I'm so ashamed to say that I actually feel asleep halfway through the show. haha. Its high time I returned Karmeng his Ice Age 2. Been hogging it for wayyyyyy to longgggggggggg.


Pics are up by the way. Long over due pics. haha. '17.05.06'.

I keep eating and eating and eating. and after that I keep complaining and complaining and complaining. and feel super guilty abt eating like a cow. SUPER GUILTY. yet I still eat. the mental torment sucks. big time.

SHIT LAH.

The afternoon was spent in the library digging out good books (I hope) to pass my time. I'm so bored at home I'm gg nuts. Yeah I'm giving tuition now, but I dun really enjoy it. Its the location I guess. haha. I so dread gg for tuition lessons. But, I need to earn at least abit, cos I've been spending way too much.

Anw after lib, I met up with Pet and we shopped abit. Lunched at the Crystal Jade XiaoLongBao at Taka after that. We each bought this same top that was on sale from Koi Noburi cos if we buy two its cheaper. haha. We're like so ah soh-ish, but who cares. Pple behave like that during sales.
It was originally priced at 42.90, but gg for only $18 now. And if we buy 2, its $30. so that means we each paid $15 for the top. heh, a pretty good deal. They didnt allow trying, but I smuggled it into the fitting room anyway.

Anw, dun ask me out on shopping trips anymore. We can go tanning, eat (yeah EAT. see what I mean.), chill, or meet up for drinks. whatever. just no more shopping. at least not for now. cos I'm saving up to shop in Bangkok. so no more shopping.

I'm so depressed. tuition tmr. SIGH. I actually secretly hope the mother of the P4 boy sacks me. cos if I'm the one to drop him, I must pay the stupid agency 50% of the first mth's fee. Then again, I'll be left with only 2 students then, and thats so little money. I'm money faced la. shucks.


I dun really enjoy teaching Pri sch Science though, its too generalised, like what Pet said. Maths is fine.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
me: okay ,so plants need carbon dioxide, water, and light to carry out photosynthesis. The leaves make food.

P4 boy: huh, so can it eat? If I give the leaf food.

me: er, no. It can't. It makes its own food.

P4 boy : but if I give the leaf rice to eat?

me: cant. er, it cant eat. (in desperation) cos it has no mouth!

P4 boy: (he proceeds to vandalise his Science textbook by drawing eyes and a mouth on THE LEAF) see got mouth. if I put a grain of rice there, the leaf will eat the rice.


See, I cant explain Science to him. HOW?!

Anyway back to Science, I'm actually quite worried. Cos last week when I was reading through the P4 Science textbook to prepare for the lesson, I suddenly forgot simple stuff like whats needed for photosynthesis. THIS IS SO WORRYING. And yeah, I'm gg do do Science in NUS la. I'm so scared and worried now. I'm like rusty. Is it just me or does everyone else feel the same?

Met up with Yitshan to catch She's The Man today. Its helluva hilarious moive, sweet and touching too. HA. I'm a sucker for love comedies. Channing Tatum is my new obsession. okay , maybe not, but he currently tops my list of the hottest guys.


Go catch that show now. Its really good.

Anyway we basically walked around and talked abt people and stuff. haha. right. gossip maybe. well, whatever. It was nice catching up with her. Visited Sharon at Venezia and I bought the green tea ice-cream, which Sharon was very generous with. My cup was like overflowing. heh.


SIGH tuition tomorrow, and I'm feeling so lazy.ARGH.

I EAT TOO MUCH. OKAY SHIT.


Anyways, HI to regular meals and lotsa time for myself, and BYE to irregular meals, stuck-up snoobish customers and hrs of slogging.

I'm now an official bummer. Well, except on Tues and Thurs which is packed with tuition assignments from morning to evening. Other than that, I'm free and slacking. YAY.

But thats not to say I dun miss the people there. I do, and I did feel a tinge of sadness when Seri hugged me that day and reminded me to visit when she goes over to FlashnSplash Novena once it opens in ard Oct. I do miss the people there, they're a pretty nice and funny bunch and I would def return to visit!

Right now, I just enjoy lazing abt. and catching up with my friends. teeheehee.

Had the UNRcumFamine leadership training camp at SA yest, which was well, a total bore. Hopefully the actual camp next week would be more entertaining.
Headed with Vic to Marina thereafter to window shop, after which I met my family for a nice yummy dinner.


Prob meeting Yitshan for a movie tomorrow. YAY again.


SHIT I EAT TOO MUCH. SHIT SHIT SHIT. OKAY BYE.
I'M GONNA FOLLOW VICKI'S PLAN.


AND SHIT. I feel like shit for not gg for the DXO party last night. EVERYONE, yes EVERYONE's telling me HOW GOOD IT WAS. SHIT.

Its always so annoying that Topshop keeps having new arrivals, and they ALWAYS display the new stuffs RIGHT IN FRONT of Surfergirl. haha. It just tempts me so much! Makes me spend spend spend. oh wells. I cant spend so much already. cos I'm gonna stop working soon. haha. Tutoring 2 Primary sch kids doesnt earn me alot, though I would say the hourly rate is much better la.

Anyway met Amanda at Potong Pasir today to collect our A Level certs from school. We arranged to meet earlier so that we could have lunch there. I miss the Malay stall so much!
I only realised (to my horror) this morning, that its the sch hols now and the canteen wouldn't be opened! Well, only the drink stall. And the funnyman uncle actually recognised us! It just felt good, I mean, at least u dun feel forgotten.
So we had our lunch at the Potong Pasir neighbourhood, which has many snack stalls and coffeeshops. We went to this particular coffeeshop cos we saw SA pple there, thus concluded the food there must be not bad. Furthermore, the ban mian there costs just $2.50!
Thats VERY attractive if u've been eating at Wisma's Food Republic for like 3 mths plus, where almost nothing costs less than $3.80!

But the ban mian at that particular Potong Pasir coffeeshop turned out to be the worst ban mian I've ever eaten!

But still, Potong Pasir shall be my new hangout cos of all the snack stalls and coffeeshops there. Food is so attainable there! Unlike my area, where there are pathetically few places to eat. Not even a single, decent coffeeshop. Anyway, Potong Pasir is so near where I live, so YAY! My new makan hangout once I stop work. Oh yeah, can go back to SA for food also! ha!

Yay. 4 more working days, inc today. ha!ha!ha!

Today marks my very last off day, since next week, being my last week of work, I won't be entitled to any off day.

Oh, anyway today I had my first tuition lesson with this Sec 1 China girl in the morning. English and Science. haha. and I dropped her after her first lesson, cos I wasn't very confident of improving her standard of English, given that she started learning English only in Pri 4 when she came to Singapore. I mean, given that she's been exposed to the language for only 3 yrs plus, her standard's already not too bad, but not good enough for a Sec 1 girl. And I'd feel really bad if I can't help her improve. Furthermore, I am not really comfortable with Sec 1 Science cos of the Physics component. Physics-the very bane of my existence. haha. I still remember liking Physics alot in Sec 3 cos I scored A1 all the way (well, almost.HAHA.) But suddenly in Sec 4, for-who-knows-what-reasons, I started getting Cs and the occasional Fs for this subject. I then begun disliking it so much. okay anyway, I shant digress.

Yeah, so when I reached home after that, after much thought, I decided to call her mum, this really nice China lady, and told her that I wont be able to continue tutoring her daughter. I told her that I won't charge her for this lesson, but she insisted that she pay me. So I walked over to her place again in the afternoon (yeah, she lives within walking distance from me) to collect the fee for today's lesson. I FELT SO BAD!.
Dun ask me how much I got, the tuition agency is so ngiao, they still want a 50% cut of the first lesson. WTH LAH.

Anyway, I still feel so bad. shit shit shit.

Oh yeah, then as I was walking home after that, this sicko teeko uncle cycled past me and said to me 'wah, hen mei hen piao liang'. BLOODY HELL. shit him man. Such perverts should be banished and obliterated from this universe. I wish I could gauge out his eye balls and stew them and feed them to the dogs.

Jessica came to visit me at work that day and commented that I look tired and exhausted. haha. yeah maybe. I feel so shagged. But hey, next Friday is coming soon!yay-ness.
Just in time for World Cup. Not that I'm a soccer fanatic anyway, haha I just wanna oogle at my cute Japanese soccer players. Think: Hidetoshi Nakata. I'm as shallow as that, hows that? heh.


And I'm not too sure if I wanna take up tuiotion assignments so soon. I mean, I wanna slack for a while first after quitting. Reading, eating, sleeping, shopping, chilling out and taitai-ing with my friends. HA! I'm sucha bum. I wanna catch up with so many people!

Plus there are all the camps. This guy from Sheares Hall just called to ask me to go for the Sheares Hall camp. The way he said it, it seems like Hall life is gonna be so exciting, and when I told him that although I so wanna live in the halls but am too lazy to pack/unpack/settle my own neccesities (my supply of cereals, oats, and fruits so wonderfully available at home sweet home)/share common toilet/blah blah blah, he siad that there really isn't much to bring over. (but then again, how much stuff does a guy have/needs?!) He said its gonna be damn fun living in the halls. I'll ask Petrina abt it when she comes back from Shanghai. I certainly won't go for the camp ALONE!
I think I might do what the guy told me, which is to apply for the halls first, then decide later. YAY. Remind me pls. the deadline is 11th June!


OKAY, I'm gonna watch SI2 which my sis taped down for me! BYE! and go to sleep if u can, the weather's good!=))

Caught the DaVinci Code. It was ok la. I mean, it wasn't that bad. But I was so shagged from working the previous day I actaully dozed off for like 5 mins halfway during the movie ( yes yes, blame it on work again, HA!). Fortunately I didn't miss out much. Audrey Tatou has darn nice legs. In case u dun noe, I have a thing for girls with nice legs. I like looking at girls' legs. HEH.

As 9th June approaches, time seems to be crawling even slower. slower than ever. it sucks big time.

Pple have been telling me that 9th June isn't far away. Its only 2 more weeks. But hey, to me, its 2 darn freakin more weeks (ITS 12 MORE DAYS! and the last wk of work I wont be entitled to any off day. HOW SAD!) . HOW ON EARTH AM I GONNA EVER SURVIVE THAT?!


I'm lazy and I'm spoilt. I wanna live a tai tai life. (nah, I'm kidding) I just wanna do sth that I enjoy.

HOW TO SURVIVE TILL 9TH JUNE?!?!?!

Depressed mode. AGAIN.

Off day today, though I'm not too sure if I wanna hit town. I'm like so tired and shagged from working everyday. Yea, I'm lousy. I really really really can't wait for the 9th of June. No words can express my eagerness for that day to come. Working 6 days a wk, inc Sundays (how sad! its family day!), 8.5 or more a day, is really no easy feat, esp for me, since this is the first full time job I've taken up after graduating. It has really taken up so much of my time, time I have to spend with my family, my friends, and even time for myself. I really miss those days when I was just slacking and bumping around doing nth, those wake up/breakfast/sleep/lunch/nap/tv/dinner/sleep days. Hey u noe what, I even miss my home so much. I realise I spend quite little time at home, I miss my bed and my corner of the blu couch so much. I'm serious, not kidding at all. Those afternoons where I just slack there, reading my book/magazines or whatever, I miss them. Big time. SIGH. Yes, I'm actually a home-body/home-person. or whatever u call that.

And after my last day or work on the 9th, Ive got a camp on the 10th. This is followed by the Sheares Hall camp (if I'm gg. I've not yet decided. cos I'm not too sure if I wanna stay in the halls. read below. haha) which is on the 12th to 15th. Then there's the Under No Roof camp on the 17th and 18th. And on the 26th to 30th, there's SCAMP. Its the Science Fac camp.

NO TIME FOR GSS SHOPPING AT ALL! HOW SAD!

I feel so upset that I've been spending so little time at home, it has even dampened my spirits to live in the Uni halls once school starts. I was so looking forward to hostel life, it'd be so much fun, but now, I really just wanna stay at home. I'm not too sure if I wanna apply for the halls already. Sure, its convenient in the sense that I can be spared from travelling to and fro (and of cos, late night suppers with friends and stuff like that. heh.) , but its also inconvenient at the same time cos i would have to bring my stuff over. Clothes, toiletries, ecetera ecetera. I would have a million and one things to bring over. Girls are troublsome creatures. All the packing and unpacking puts me off totally. Oh and yes, the sharing of common toilet and kitchen! I wouldn't really fancy that also. And if I stay in the hostel, I would have lesser or no more fruits oats cereals which are so easily within my reach at home. So, maybe not staying in the Uni halls would be a better choice after all. Though I reckon I would be missing out on a lot of fun. Hall life is exciting and vibrant I heard. I'm just too lazy I guess.

I detest deciding. Decisions one after another. I've to decide fast cos the deadline for applying for the halls is on the 11th June. OH WELLS!


My mum thinks I worry and get depressed over the slightest matters. Maybe. But its just me. haha. shit la, I wanna stay in the halls. but I'm lazy to do the stupid packing and unpacking. the shifting of stuff. and my cereal oats and fruits. Ok I'm not gonna go on and on. haha. I realise I'm too dependent. and LAZY.



SHIT SHIT SHIT. I need to hurry up decide.

I'm upset cos I lost my toe ring that day at Zouk. oh sigh. I'm not gonna buy myself another one. yet. I need to save. I'm gonna try to stop spending so much. (is the GSS not already here yet?!). right.

Anyway, bumped in Raphael yest in town. I've not seen him in like a million yrs! The last time I saw him was in late Oct/early Nov last yr. haha.

Counting down.=)

Rugby match yesterday was a good one. Definitely a match worth watching, and of cos, a match worth travelling all the way down to CCK Home Team Academy (tucked away in an ulu part of Singapore). SAJC actually beat RJC in the finals. So now we're the champion. Thats like the first time in 10 yrs plus, since AC and RJ have always been in our way. The estacy that filled the air was indescribable I tell u.
Had dinner at CCK Lot 1 with Pet after that. It's so funny that she hasn't heard of this heartland mall before. haha.

And at night it was off to Zouk with Vicki Shumin and Sisi. It wasn't too bad, just that it was too crowded somehow. Saw qt a few familiar faces there though, and Laura too. haha.
Left the place at ard 145 and headed to Obar where Andy the Ben were, though we didn't meet them there when we reached the place. Went up to Dbl O and stayed there for qt a while before deciding to have bak kut teh. btw the music at Dbl O was really gd. as good as, if not better, than Phuture.

The bak kut teh there was a rip off, like totally. Extremely over-priced. wth. Anyway halfway through our bak kut teh Andy called and I told him we had already left Obar, and so he came over as well with this other staff Brandon from Hereen.

Shared a cab with Shumin home after that. Morning shift today and I was so so so shagged. I've nv felt so sleepy working before. Well, 4.5 hrs of sleep is nv enough.


My next off day is next Fri. Thats more then a week of work before my next off day. How sad!

yay, Da Vinci Code has opened!=))))).
