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.

Sunday, May 21, 2006

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!=))))).

And so, after much consideration (well, maybe not alot), I've chosen and accepted NUS Sch of Science over NTU's Communication Studies. Well, that was a really tough decision, since I really am interested in mass com. But I guess, I'm not a risk-taker, and would rather not try something new, lest I fail in it, which would then be very sad. aiyah I dunno. I actually accepted NUS Science with a heavy heart, not that I dun wish to take up Science, its just that I really couldn't bear to reject Communication studies. I've friends who told me that Mass Com is not easy to get in, unlike NUS Science, and this made me feel so ugh-ish. I seriously dislike decision-making. But well, whats done is done, and since I've already chosen NUS Science, I might as well make the best out of it (and no, I dun wanna be a teacher, maybe, only as a last resort), and hope that its a decision that I wont regret making.

Saturday, May 13, 2006

My com died (for a day).

Anw got down to Orchard Library to borrow some books to pass my time since I thought my uncle would take a few days to repair my com. But yay, its fixed now!

I'm gg down for the rugby finals next Wed. SAJC vs RJC. Its gonna be helluva exciting match. I still remember last yr's!!!!!

Mambo too with the girls. yayness. I so can't wait for my next off day.=)


New chapter, new everything. I'm ending my working stint on the 10th June.

Thursday, May 11, 2006

My off days pass so quickly, but working days are sucha drag! oh wells. Its gonna be back to work tomorrow, and its gonna be a million yrs till my next off day. And I'm serious. SIGH!

NUS Induction session today with Petrina. There was food, buffet style. HA!HA!

Anyway headed to town after that, where Pet bought a Roxy denim shorts using the coupon.
It was hilarious when we were making our way down to Hereen, along the Istana.

Cos it was like already dark (8 plus), and Pet took out her shades to wear, and so I followed suit. So there we were, looking like two bimbotic crazy girls wearing shades at night.

Pet: " eh we should be friendly and wave to those drivers that turn to our direction "
Joyce: " haha, yeah maybe. cos anyway we probably won't be seeing them for the rest of our lives "
Pet: " or maybe we should just wave to any passer-by"

So at Meridien Hotel, we were just walking when Pet suddenly waved to this middle-aged lady who walked past her.
U should have seen that lady's expression! Her eyes were as huge as golf balls, and she looked quite frightened and freaked out, she quickly walked away. It was hilarious shit I couldn't contain my laughter, and Pet claimed that I gave her away with my oh-so-terrible laughter. But well, I really couldn't help it.


I did the same thing at Centrepoint too, when I walked past this lady who was waiting at the bus stop.
I waved to her and quickly walked away, with Pet following behind me. I couldn't bear to look at her expression for fear that I might burst out laughing.
To my amusement, according to Pet, she actually replied with a 'hey!'. haha damn funny. She probably thought I am her friend or something.

oh wells. just some cheap thrill to add to our otherwise mundane lives.



work work work.

Sunday, May 07, 2006

Photos from company's DnD are finally up. after much procrastination. Rouge just now was boring. oh wells.

It's almost 2.30am now, and I heard the thunder. I think it's gonna rain. I'm gonna swing. not cos of the rain though.

Saturday, May 06, 2006

I got accepted into NTU Mass Com. Now I'm in a dilemma. One thing abt NTU is the distance, which totally puts me off. Its so deep in a forested area, its near the goat farm haha. Then again, I do have an interest in mass com, it sounds fun, but what if I can't excel in it? I still wanna graduate with my degree, and I'm so not gonna waste my 4 yrs there, esp so, since its a 4 yrs direct honours course. There's gonna be quite a bit of risk-taking involved. Communication studies is sth new after all, while Science is safer, in the sense that I've been doing it for like 6 yrs. And the NUS Science course its not a direct honours one. Sigh. So how?

I dun like to make decisions. like seriously.


oh yeah, and I've also gotta consider the career prospects. oh wells.

Another thing thats drving me nuts is the fact that the earliest date for my driving test is 2 mths later, though I've booked it like last mth. ah, sigh.


I feel like I'm a soyabean milk maid now, haha, thrust with the duty of buying Andy's and Zeela's daily dosage of Jollibean soyabean milk, and of cos, my own too. I'm addicted to it. =)


I'm still feeling emo and pms-y. oh wells.



emo emo emo pms pms pms emo emo emo pms pms pms emo emo emo pms pms pms.


Oh, did I mention that I'm still VERY UBER upset that I used my hair mask, and caused my red streaks (which I really adored) to turn to brown streaks? I still can't get over the loss of my red streaks. really. The brown that my streaks have turned to, is so common. I'm no longer red and special. Yeah I sure sound bimbotic. Well, whatever. I'm upset.

Thursday, May 04, 2006

I haven't worn shoes for quite a long time, they give me blisters when I wear them now.

Tuesday, May 02, 2006

Comapny dinner last night was ok. Chilled out at this pretty cosy pub at the Esplanade after that with the colleagues.

msn with tecko aka THE CHINA MAN this morn made me feel slightly better this morn, but yes, only for a while. emo all over again.

ha.

but still, I'm thankful for friends like that. Friends u can really talk too and not feel embarrassed or whatever shit. yea.

Saturday, April 29, 2006

The interview today at NTU Sch on Comm. and Information was pretty alright I guess. Interview was ok, I say, 10 times better than the SMU one which I attended which was quite a screw-up for me ( at least thats what I felt). Just that today's written test asked qs like which countries did George Bush visit in early March, current affairs, general knowledge and stuff like that. I didn't noe all the answers cos I haven't had time to read every single article in the newspapers since I'm so busy and tired working. But it wasn't all that bad la, the test was still pretty much do-able I guess. I'm not too sure when I'll know the outcome of today's test-cum-interview though. I do have an interest in Mass Com and such, but NTU is just too far for me. Travelling to school would be such a chore. I guess that would be the main reason should I not choose NTU. Aiyah, haha wait till they get back to me first then decide. If not, then I'll just go to NUS Science.

But I guess I'll most likely choose NUS Science la. So much nearer. haha.

The buffet lunch at NTU today was good. They had lotsa good food. Sambal prawns, sweet and sour fish, buffalo wings, chicken rendang, fried rice, fried behoon, spring rolls, mushroom w veg, tofu with veg, guava juice and grass jelly. Ah, paradise. I didnt eat alot though, since we most of the time touring the sch. haha.

Oh yeah there was this little kitten, a very tiny one, abt the length of a 15cm ruler or smaller, stuck in my Dad's car engine a fw days back. We couldn't see it at first when we lifted the bonnet, but when we started the engine, we cold hear the kitten's inccessant meow-ing. My Dad was so afraid that the cat would be crushed should he start the car, so my poor mum had to go to work on her own. haha. It took us quite a while to get this little furball out, and ah, it was really cute.

Monday, April 24, 2006

Tuesday blues. Its gonna be back to work tmr. Ah! sigh.

At least I rested alot at home today though. Breakfast, sudoku, lunch, sudoku, 3-hr nap, dinner, sudoku.

Its been ages since I slacked at home, doing nth. And it certainly feels good.

Saturday, April 22, 2006

Great lunch this afternoon with Mummy, sis and Donald at Wisma Din Tai Fung. HAHA. Not that I'm not tired of Wisma since I am there almost every other day, just that we thought that the Din Tai Fung at Paragon would be more crowded.

Anyway back to THE GREAT lunch, it was really good I must say, at least to me. I ate so much, I ate like a monster. I had my minced meat sauce with mushroom noodle as my main course, and had half a plate of fried rice, sweet and sour soup, braised Sichuan sliced beef, some cabbage dish, shrip and minced meat shao mai, as well as the xiao long bao. haha. luckily they forgot abt the braised beef soup we ordered, cos we wouldn't be able to finish it!

But, it was satisfying. Ah.

Grocery shopping with Mummy after that well sis and Donald headed to coffee club RH (my ex workplace haha) to study. After grocery shopping my mum went home while I went to Suntect, Marina and City Link to shop for my stuff. Had a tough time finding what I wanted. Managed to get it in the end, though it wasn't exactly what I wanted. But I guess it'd do just find. I'm so tired of searching high and low for it already. so heck la. heh. I just hope it isn't a impulsive buy.

Oh wells. Must rest tmr, not gonna go out already. Must rest till my heart's content. Going back to work on Mon. SIGH!

Friday, April 21, 2006

Off day today was good. Woke up damn early for driving, though. Met Eileen after that for lunch at JP (haven't been there for a hundred yrs). and then off to her place for some tanning.

The sun was ok, though there was this on-off drizzle. And no, I didn't manage to get visibly tanner. OH WELLS. After tanning and frolicking in the pool, went back up and had our waffle a la Gelare style. heh heh. It was wonderful, or may I say, heavenly, esp since I was so hungry.

Then again, I realised that I'm hungry like most of the time ( if not half the time) whenever I'm awake, even after my meals, I get hungry within an hr or so. WHATS WRONG WITH MY METABOLISM?????!!!!!!. Maybe I should just sleep my next 3 off days away. I always feel so guilty after eating so much, but yet I lack discipline to control myself. oh, SIGH.


Yay no work tmr. I haven't had a free Sat for almost 2 mths now! Din Tai Feng tmr with Mummy and maybe sis and Donald. Some retail therapy would be good too.

Tuesday, April 18, 2006

SMU interview tmr. I'm actually pretty worried. ha.

Anyway ust had my hair coloured on Sun. Deep red streaks, and another tone of brown on the inside and ends. Not too happy with it though. The red streaks are alright, but the brown is rather dark its not very visible. I would have wanted a brighter brown, abit goldenish.warm blondish kind actually. The sample she showed was quite bright ( cos of the pitching I think), so I thought the red-on-the-outside-and-bright-brown/almost golden-on-the-inside effect would be achieved. In the end, sigh, its so sad, the brown is SO DARK.

OKAY. I'm sorry. I sound SO BIMBOTIC. END OF TOPIC PLEASE!

On a brighter note, I've something to pass my time now. Not as if I'm damn free anyway. haha I've been working like a mad horse. Oh yeah, shan't digress, I'm addicted to Sudoku. haha. I bought the Sudoku puzzle book to do la. heh. And Eileen just told me that I can actually download those puzzles. Hmm I hope I become smarter after finishing the book. HAHA!

I can't wait for my long (okay, actually not-so-long) break of 4 days. Fri Sat Sun and Mon, though Mon I'll have to go to the office in the morning for a briefing. Cos Surfbabe's closing for renovation. I just hope I dun have to go over to cover duty at flash and splash though. haha.I want my 4 days break!

I guess thats all. =)

Tuesday, April 11, 2006

Worked at Flash n Splash today cos they were short-handed. It was quite ok I must say, wasn't that boring. Saw quite a few familiar faces as well. And oh yea, Porky came again to visit and woohoo, he brought cakes again. HOHOHO!. Food really does make me happy. I'm not kidding!

Monday, April 10, 2006

Work was okay. Throat still hurts though. SIGH.
Anyway Deborah came today. Said Hi and stuff. haha. Its funny how pple used to get us mixed up during the first 3 mths in JC. Many pple said we are carbon copies of each other (ie Porky), twins (ie, Porky), blah blah blah. haha.

Yups and got a visit from Porky too. He was quite sweet, he bought cakes. HAHA! YAY. I ALWAYS love food!. (hint: the next time any of u visit me, pls buy food! thx! cos I'm like hungry most of the time)

Bumped into Theodore at Dhoby Ghaut station on my way home. Yea, small world. heh.

Tmr's another working day.


EH I HAVEN'T WATCHED MY ICE AGE YET LA. The whole world has watched it except me, I think I'm destined to catch it alone. HOW SAD!

Sunday, April 09, 2006

My throat hurts real badly. I lost my voice and am coughing as well. How sad is that. I actually CROAK now. SIGH.
It doesn't help that Jeremy kept laughing at me. and Andy as well. kept imitating my voice.

oh wells. I hope I get well soon!

I have very nice colleagues too, who deliberately had ice-cream in front of me. Esp ZL who had my favourite choc mint ice-cream.
SIGH. So all of them had ice-cream today but me. I wanted to, but they didn't allow. Anyway, a little bit of ice-cream won't harm.

Anyway, I guess thats all. aidios.
