had a not bad xmas eve and xmas day.


yday met dear at orchard to go choose a gift for his sis xmas party on 25th.
so we went to walk in cineleisure looking at stuffs. and den decided to just watch a movie.
i wanted to watch twilight. he wanted to watch ip man. haha. but we still go ahead with twilight.
shall accompany him some other day to watch ip man.

after the show. we wenta eat first. and den went to buy a cute cup at more than words.

hmm he wanting to send me home le. but i thought it was still early so i phoned my family. they were also in orchard eating dinner. but at that time, i already had mine. so they were just sitting down at coffee club after their dinner at sushi tei. anws, were stuck at the bus stop while its pouring. not cats and dogs, but were quite big. after it lightened a little, we walked back to taka to find my parents and bro.

i had a cup of black forest and we all shared this white chocolate logcake and sat there for quite some time.

dear left while me and my family went to take a cab home. and poor dear was stuck in the human traffic around taka. that ppl jam really is very long. cos as we sat in the cab we saw the traffic. and ppl were stuck as if vehicles were stuck in traffic as they inched forward.

luckily he reached home barely within an hour. so hmm.. haha.. yea.. imagine u are stuck at taka to the orchard mrt station for 35mins.



well today, my dad just decided to cook crabs for lunch. so we waited for lunch. and i finished my (yummy!) lunch ard 2 plus.

only managed to reach outram at around 4.45pm. den dear and his dad came to fetch me back to his sis's.

watched dear eat cos i wasnt very hungry until 7 plus. exchanged presents and i got a nice lipstick-and-brush holder. =) just as i was frustated with my messy table. haha.

left with the parents and dear at 8plus.

------------------------------------------------------

Ja-ne!

The way to heal a lone soul. and i was totally bored.

i am seriously feeling numbed.

I wonder if its me or?

Oh xmas holiday, come quick cos i need you.

taka is having xmas promotion now.

and i am waiting for the IT show. waiting for prices to drop.

most imptly, shopping!

xmas is a festive season for shopping.

i am so geared up and ready to go!

i only want to feel like i exist.

what is wrong with me that everyone is a) not talking to me, b) doesnt care what im doing, c) taking advantage of me?

is it so hard to like me as me? =((

maybe there IS something wrong with me...

feeling so overwhelmed that i feel like crying.

perhaps having another PMS.

i think im too bored that ive been trying to ask ppl out.

but they are not free. haha.

nvm. wait until weekends again ba.

tcc photos~!


mine!


hers!

another week whizzing by again.

but last week i had fun.



wed i met jenny b4 sch in westmall and lunched in sakae sushi. we headed back to school after that. haha. but it was fun catching up with her again. had'nt seen her since june, which was exam.

i went to tw, broke my ankle and was not able to come out. and now in diff classes now, its harder for us to meet up. but we could always meet up b4 sch on wed or weekends haha.



thurs i took my wine appreciation class and had fun learning how to appreciate wine! keke! and by chance, i found a new girl fren. we hung out after class b4 going home. and carrying the 2 leftover bottles of wine like drunkards. sheesh. =p luckily twas near my house, or else luma sia!!



anyway, didnt get to know yufeng better. (haha! yeah another yufeng but i dont know her chinese character.) so on FrI we hung out again in pizza hut JP after her work and my lesson in sch. i think we sat there for 2 hours! lol. took bus home together after that. she lived around lakeside and lucky for me, i could also take 187 home.



SaT, had makeup class for the monday we missed cos of deepavali. well, after class i phoned kw to see where she is, cos i know she had class in the morning. well, luckily she was still in cityhall with her frens, so i went to find her.

i was hanging out in mph in citylink, cos she was still in suntec with her frens. den awhile later she came to look for me after her frens left. Damn, didnt get any books! haha. We chilled out at tcc, the one besides mph. and sat for maybe 3 hours?! lol. ooh, anw nice coffees that we ordered. checked out the photos we taken later!

went home after we window shopped around citylink and raffles city. and yeah, kw, i miss the mphosis bag. i think i going to get it le laa! haha!



today was just sleeping at home. doing nth.

still waiting for my sony ericsson bla bla bla. so longggg lo! release in sg le but still not sold by the mobile operators yet. =.=



another day is passing by... ciauzz my babies, my lovess...

my pressies from jiemeis!!



just in case u r wondering..

the pink bandana on the sofa is the pink headband joanne bought. =D

wah stupid phone of mine!

im tired of using the touch screen way of sms. it slows down my messaging speed.

and the htc phone got a slow ram and rom thats its hanging every now and then. or too slow.

i need my sony ericsson x1!! but its still not launch in singapore yet! arh~!

im not expecting the price to be low. but i would buy it if it hits my range.

im an all-function and "the goods must be satisfying" type of ppl. so something i want must not be lower than my expectation.

just frustrating while waiting for the new phone to be launch in sg, not knowing the price and the physical see and touch.



btw, thanks jo for organising the outing yday! enjoyed the dinner very much! haha.

and yea! for the pooh bear pillow! im hugging it ^^

oh yeah and the head band!! its the same head band i ve! although i dont ve the pink one, which i regret not buying. and now i dont ve to regret it. so happy! haha.



meanwhile, i ve something to be unsolved. it will have to wait. the dinner lifted my spirit abit. =)

sunday i went to mac and ve dinner with my bro and my mum.

thats when my bro encourages me to take up courses, seeing that i ve nth to do with my life.

its true. i ve to keep myself occupied. from thinking, i guess.

anyway, we just went to the CC and signed me up for japanese lessons and wine appreciation class (one day only).

it starts next month.

now im just looking forward to the lessons.



its like taking up a driving lesson like that. Another useful skill but which you dont know when u r able to use them.

And since my bro promised to take up french with me after he ord, im looking forward to that as well.

If i really like those, i could ve found a goal in life. ^^

well, im trying to jog again, on my threadmill.

if i could really say goodbye to my old life... and start a new me. IF.



Sitting around just waiting for the late afternoon class again. =.=

well, just trying to tell u guys about my new exciting ready-to-go to-dos.

im a laid back person. if anything that really interest me, i should be giving it my utmost shot at it.

my bro still ve his jap book on his shelves. i cant read those yet though.

i dont know why but i liked jap culture. they make me feel peaceful, clean and healthy. and i really like salmon sashimi! haha.

maybe one day i would immigrate to japan.

maybe the ppls in sg are way too scheming, selfish, individualistic and not helpful.

but i am born here. though im trying not to be.

finally the furnitures are completed with the curtains and the dining chairs.

imagine my dining table without chairs. =.=

and my windows glaring with no curtains. Not only the living room, but the rooms too.



anyway, now the "housewarming" can start. Probably the end of this month.

if anyones wanting to come, just msg me. haha.

gloomy.. as the weather is/ or my blog title.

I realise theres a disadvantage of not having a sister around.

When you are lonely, a sister can always accompany you.

You can bare your hearts out to each other.

Doing things together always make the sisters bond.

Maybe having a younger sister just make you grow stronger. bcos of your strong feelings to protect her. Whether physically or emotionally.



Of cos a bff do the same. except that she cant be there for you forever.

my brother, being a guy, just dont need me. haha. Aw, makes me feel very, well... fail as a sister. Hes stronger than me in any aspects. Like im the younger one. keke.

anyway, my bro's thing doesnt really bother me.

Its just that i wish to have a sister too, sometimes.

waiting to go school.

bored.

argh!

i hate late afternoon class! + the kind that has only 1 time slot!!

=.=

what a fun weekend its been.

getting out once a while is refreshing. with diff groups of ppl too.



last fri, went to vivo with my cousins for dinner to celebrate another bday. haha.

chilled there until 10pm before we headed down to chevrons to sing.

and if u must know, chevrons ktv is cheap! haha. with the alcohols and all.

and so we sang until 3am and cabbed home.




sat came. and weiwei ask me to go watch "Connected" with them.

met them at 7pm at bugis.

that show has abit of comedy in it. overall its not bad. i give it a 7.5/10. the action is good.

anywhere, after the show about 9 plus, we went to eat dinner. lol

and den trying to find a place to chill out.

so den we went to starbucks. until 12 den left the place.



wenta kevin's to stay for the night.

and den left the next day after finish watching superband.



today is just continue sch.

tata.

i received an email from UOL about my incomplete result. and they say i pass it. woohoo!

so i can proceed to year 2 now.

its an admin error. but nvm about that now. the most impt thing is i pass! haha.



anyway, i am so hard on myself lately.

everything seems to go wrong. and i just feel as depressed as ever.

something is forever wrong with me. i cant seem to make the right decision and do the right thing. the naive, immature, kid brain just dont know what to do at times.



bad. the email that betty send me really had me thinking alot. more than i did ever, probably.

"We need to talk." simple as it is. i couldnt bring myself to do it. the same scene would just repeat itself.

aRh, aH.



life is hard.

just nevermind already.

do what u want. i dont want to care.

i dont give a hoot about someone who sees me as only an option in their life.

And only themselves in their lives.

My wanna-be contribution is just air.

resume studying today.

POA class - no one i know.

OTIA class - in different class from my friends.

IS class - at least with a poly friend.

Sometimes retaking modules just sux.

u noe that modules pretty well and the first few lessons are just boring. LOL.


and worst of all, theres no more refreshments. damn SIM.

Choices. esp when its hard to make.

I got a shock when i saw my result. Not that failing matters. i can always retake next yr and pass.

Its the incomplete result that infuriates me.

I really didnt know what to do.


if i retake that module, i have to do my 3 yrs course all over again but with lesser modules since i passed few of my other modules.

i contemplate changing to a complete different course in a different school. Den again theres nth i wanna take.

i forced myself to consider early childhood, psychology, translation and languages, cos those are kinda fun. my mum objects to their future career outlook.

i talked to a few others, and they confused my little mind. lol

So i decided to drop this IS and management course and to look for a job.

Then again, i thot to myself, what if inspiration nv come to me in that bounded office? Den my youth would be wasted without a degree. I will be 26 without a degree. i would totally hate myself for making the wrong decision.

OR

i could be 26 with a stupid IS degree. and den any kind of work wouldnt matter anymore cos i got my bachelor.

Well, Singapore is really a small place for anyone of us to try to further any kind of unique careers. I looked through sg private uni, they all dont provide asian studies (with specific country) or philosophy. Just when i thot i could take these courses, i realised those courses are not provided in Singapore uni. =.= Even if i do study them, i cant further my career with this kind of certs in singapore. although they would look REALLY cool.



I just talk to a classmate, whos from the same poly and course as i was, only diff year. The reason that we take these IS and mgmt in SIM is the same. IT is not a bad way to go. plus it doesnt ve too much programming like poly courses does. and they ve mgmt courses. only that she came alittle late to the sch, who could be my senior. oh, technically speaking, she is now, given my status. =.=

so now i reconsider dropping my bloody course. age 26-27 with a degree, and find a common job.

What luck, since im born in singapore. What other choices do i ve? i ve no interest in anything, so i can only temporarily go with this flow.


business, admin, banking, accounts, they are so so officey. and dull. and R&R. u go to work, u do ur job, u wait for clock to strike to go home. The next day starts again. Unless the work that u do does not bore u. its the life, not ur age that counts rite? in sg, its ur age that counts. why are u still as old, but without any money???!! u should be working out there man~~! what if u cant pay ur bills? and what! u dont ve any insurances, or cpf or bank investments?!! Old life should sucks bad. Ur childs educations should too.

In the end, its the living standards that counts.



i cant do the other above courses that i mentioned. So i plan to stick with this course.

Sui yuan ba. Ren ming le. Since i cannot do anything at all. literally.

new drama to download..

the new lu ding ji (2008) downloading at 1MB/s!

slurps*

woohoo! avril's best damn tour!!

Yday my family n i went to imm to eat ichiban to celebrate my bday. again. LOL.

anw, went to look at the dining table that we ordered. actually its the same as my aunt's so nothing special.

gw shopped in giant while my parents and i went to look at dining table.

we met to take a cab to kallang indoor stadium.


it wasnt that much ppl yet cos we were 20 mins early.

the souvenirs were so ex that we couldnt buy any =.=


seriously im so going to buy a camera next time. its like being disabled of my beautiful experiences! LOL. taiwan, concerts, bdays, gatherings, whatever.

somehow, im glad i didnt ve a camera with me. if i did ve, i wouldnt enjoy myself so much. cos u would keep taking pics and videos that u'd forgot to enjoy the concert.











anw, though t'was short, but her singing is superb! The crowd was so responsive so much that its impossible not to sing and wave like mad! LOL.

Called for cab and took the comfort taxi home.

heavy mood lifting this time. but after that, its just back to the same moodiness.

sometimes life is so repetitive, we hate it.

whats with the future, when its unknown and u have absolutely no goals, thats the tiring procedure of life.

im trying to find my goals. i scanned through every possibilities that goes thru my head. i still dont know what to do.

my future is not bleak. i just currently dont know what to do now.



If life is only about working for the sake of earning money, wheres the fun?

pls dont telll me fun is during weekends.
okay fine, u r waiting for the fun to come while u slog the whole weekdays away.



my mums actually suggesting me to study HR. the short-term kind.

Well i know what shes thinking. she just wants me to get a stable job that earns enough money. and since my IT isnt that good, shes suggesting HR.

haha. straight away, at least i know thats not what i want.

i just tell her to give me time to sort things out and think it over.



while im thinking, i am also hoping to do some reflections.



things aside, yday was an enjoyable day. thankss for what they called 'celebration'. LOL.

it did lift abit of my mood.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

P.S: i noe i blog this kinda entry before. im spewing everything out again.

yea i need something to cheer me up.

feeling damn damn damn down.

im downloading ranma 1/2 full 7 seasons. and its making my internet lag/down.

sian.

i love ranma!! LOL!

okay. thats it.

every year its the same..

*hope i will change*

i seriously feel like giving up.

why is it that however hardworking i am, or think how smart i am, i always turn out to be the otherwise?

maybe im not as hardworking afterall, and im just a stupid kid.

i dont even think about my future. Whatever come, comes.

i dont even know what i want to do.

Even if i got this degree den what? i cant possibly stay in the IT career, cos its not me at all.



not thinking about anything anymore.

choices in life is hard and uncertain.

Concerts i might consider going:

Mayday, Avril lavigne, xiao jing teng, jason mraz, eason chen, panic at the disco, jay chow, alicia keys.

i admit i dont know all of their songs but i also acknowlege them as good singers/bands. and that i would want to hear their songs. =D

Thats why i wouldnt mind going if they r in town.

i miss xiao jing teng and eason's ones. cos of my sprained ankle. crap.

i think i stay too long at home.

im so bored now everyday.

Just waiting for weekends to come.

And when its over, im back to my everyday routine.

Slack.

when some say something unexpected or do something unexpected due to emotional change,

"sorry, you should know i couldnt control what i say/do when im angry/confused."

I hate that verse.

when u say that, u dont hold urself responsible for what u say or what u do already.

instead, u hold ur emotions responsible. or rather, the person that makes ur emotions run amok.


this is rather an unacceptable act of behaviour. u r throwing ur responsibilities away. and blaming it on something else or someone else.

whats worse is, u still claim that ur act is righteous.

heck, that is really irresponsible.

i finally watching "Fated to love you"

seriously, compared to other ou xiang ju, this drama has a good story.

It tells the normal kind of boy/girl love, a motherly love, siblings love, and love for friends.

Almost every single episode will move you to tears. No kidding. Thats why i always look forward to every episode, thinking "how would the scriptwriter make us cry next?"

Sometimes when i didnt cry bcos of that ep, i would really conclude that is also a good ep.

Abit draggy, cos it lasts 23 episodes. Of cos you wouldnt know when is the final ending, cos it always has a bloody twist in the bloody story.



fun, watching it. now im trying to find another drama to watch haha.

Some drama that would not require me to wait for a week, perhaps.

though its almost exciting to anticipate for the next one, its also infuriating.

Meanwhile, shall finish playing my game first.



tata.

bored.

wish i can go out.

wish he wouldnt be so busy that in the end we wont contact each other.

"wishing well" grant me my wishes, please?

For those who wishes to buy me a birthday present, (updated)


1. i recently lost my hairclip which is used to replace to tie up my hair. The pink big one which i lost. haha.

2. I would really appreciate a good love novel. esp those stories from like the 1880s or something? "The little women" category. Recommend ur love novels to me?
Yewen, not xiong qiao ones. haha. ok fine, chinese love stories like the 17th century china, where maidens still ve bind foots those kind?

FYI, i ve gotten "Peony in love" and "the secret diaries of miranda cheever". both stories are what i mentioned above.

3. Well, you can still get me movie tix for good movies. please dont get me just 1. LOL.

4. A dream-catcher.

5. pooh bear? i dunno, im just finding random stuffs...

6. Oh yeah, a hair band. preferably those that covers the whole head. you can say its sorta headband.




Really, im in no interest for shopping nowdays. maybe something might just catch my eye, well, someday.

I didnt even shop for clothes when i was in tw. Only 2 shorts just bcos its hot down there and i didnt bring any. =X

I guess i only want comfortable clothes afterall. Not in for fashion anymore. Never was anw. Just not me.

*Just for Jiejin*
--------------------------------------
Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday to jiejin~
Happy birthday to you!

Quotes from Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus:

1. When she is feeling good she is capable of seeing and responding to the good things in her life. But when she is crashing, her loving vision becomes cloudy, and she reacts more to what is missing in her life.

2. It puts too much pressure on a man to make him the only source of love and support.

3. By supporting her need to be heard, she could support his need to be free.

4. When her wave crashes again, similar issues will arise. Whatever remains to be healed or resolved from her past inevitably will come up.

5. When a man loves a woman, periodically he needs to pull away before he can get closer.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Quotes 2:

1. A man becomes fully receptive to and appreciative of the six kinds of love primarily needed by women (caring, understanding, respect, devotion, validation, and reassurance) when his own primary needs are first fulfilled. Likewise a woman needs trust, acceptance, appreciation, admiration, approval, and encouragement. But before she can truly value ana appreciate these kinds of love, her primary needs first must be fulfilled.

2. When a Martian expresses his caring and understanding, a Venusian automatically begins to reciprocate and return to him the trust and acceptance that he primarily needs. The same thing happens when a Venusian expresses her trust - a Martian automatically will begin to reciprocate with the caring she needs.

3. When his behaviour takes into consideration her thoughts and feelings, she is sure to feel respected. Concrete and physical expressions of respect, like flowers and remembering anniversaries, are essential to fulfill a woman's third primary love need. When she feels respected it is much easier for her to give her man the appreciation that he deserves.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Quotes 3:

"The last thing a woman needs when she is on her way down is someone telling her why shouldnt be down. What she needs is someone to be with her as she goes down, to listen to her while she shares her feelings, and to empathize with what is going through. Even if a man cant fully understand why a woman feels overwhelmed, he can offer his love, attention and support.

"Telling a woman she shouldnt feel hurt is about the worst thing a man can say. It hurts her even more, like poking a stick into an open wound."

"When a woman is feeling hurt, she may sound as if she is blaming him. But if she is given care and understanding, the blame will disapper. Trying to explain to her why she shouldnt be hurt will make matters much worse."

"What she needs is his understanding of why she is hurting."

"Most couples start out arguing about one thing and, within 5 minutes, are arguing about the way they are arguing."

"It is not what we say that hurts but how we says it."

"He is aware neither of how uncaring he sounds nor of how hurtful this is to his partner. At such times, a simple disagreement may sound like an attack to a woman; a request turns into an order. Naturally a woman feels resistant to this unloving approach, even when she would be otherwise receptive to the content of what he was saying."

"Because he does not understand her reaction, he focuses more on explaining the merit of what is saying instead of correcting the way he is saying it."

"He has no idea that he is starting an argument; he thinks she is arguing with him. He defends his point of view while she defends herself from his sharpened expressions, which are hurtful to her."

A common male/female basic patten:

1. A woman expresses her upset feelings about "XYZ."
	2. A man explains why she should't be upset about "XYZ."
3. She feels invalidated and becomes more upset. (She is now more upset about being invalidated than about "XYZ.")
	4. He feels her disapproval and becomes upset. He blames her for upsetting him and expects an apology before making up.
5. She apologizes and wonders what happened, or she becomes more upset and the argument escalates into a battle.

"To avoid painful arguments it is important to recoginize how men unknowingly invalidate and how unknowingly women send messages of dispproval."

Quotes 4:

Intimidation always weaken trust in a relationship.To muscle your way into getting what you want by making others look wrong is a sure way to fail in a relationship.

人不是常常说“忍一时风平浪静，退一步海阔天空”的吗？

I read somewhere that if u accept whoever ur partner is, den you are able to live happier.

If you say u can accept it, why are you still complaining about it?

Women thinks emotionally, men thinks logically. Thats why we fail to understand each other's thinking and end up argueing.

The best gift to women is to be emphathy. And the best gift to men is to nag less.

We, as in representing the female race, can emphatize with people. We can usually feel what others are feeling, esp with the same race.

Men, on the other hand, knows only the way men think and act. They would usually think that females are complicated creatures.

If men thinks women thinks like them, its a ABSOLUTELY NO NO. Likewise for women. Mars and Venus have totally different species.



Ive written all that iv wanted to tell my baby. He fails to understand when i try to tell him, in a big circle(its our characteristics also), that im me and im a woman and that hes a man and hes him.

I'd try to be more understanding towards him and nag less.

I hope that if he read this, he would be more receptive to me.

They often says communication is impt. But i guess in this situation, even communication makes relationships worse. Men hate to talk. Women loves to. And unless both tries to understand each other, meaning men thinks emotionally, and women thinks logically, its impossible.

there was a terrible dream, i knew that my eyes were still shut even in the dream. I forced them open and only realise i was dreaming.

but i dwell on that dreadful dream. Praying that it will never happen.

i found my perfume and other stuffs! So happy ^.^

girls i got a little bit bad news. i feel terrible myself.

Well, i hope to reward him with food. But den again i cant move yet. =.=

i know why i keep feeling tired these few days.

I didnt exercise, like taking long walk.

I didnt drink coffee in the morning. Thats why i feel lethargic all day.

I know this cos i miss coffee. And in taiwan i dont feel tired at all even though i walked all day, and without drinking coffee.

Hmm. The next time i need to do at least one of these things to make me feel more alive. Haha.


Seriously, after i am fully healed, i will try to exercise more.

The doc told me to swim more! Yes, at least my motivation to swim comes again! Well, my mum keeps saying when i swim, my leg will become more wobbly, and den i would fall easily. Sorry to miss swimming with u. Well, you know who you are. =P Now i can swim again! Yay!

i feel the urge to clean the house, cos its new and it makes ppl, well.. me, not want to dirty the floors and tables and the walls.

ar sian.


crap my ankle just refuse to heal. i would stretch myself when i wake up in the morning and it would hurt again.


Therefore, I hate to wake up. And im tired everyday even though i ve plenty of rest. When im tired, i tend to stretch myself . =.=


i cant unpack my clothes cos my mother do not ve enuff clothes hangers. She used all for hers. =.=


Once my ankle is alright, den i will be able to xiang shou in my pretty flat.


Kevin needs to take his QET in order to graduate from NTU. QET = Qualification English Test. I think. So i ve been helping him with his essay writing. Haha. (I dunno why i bother to type this out.)


Play and not work is bad. Play and work is worst. Work only defeat the purpose in our lives. LOL.


Yawnzzzzzzzzzz

So far, the kitchen cabinet and my parents' cupboard has been done. Now my parents are unpacking the kitchen stuffs to its respective places. I haven been able to do anything since i come back. Haiz. Including exploring my own home. =.=

Lets hope the workers come tmr to finish the touch-up. They are supposed to come today but they didnt. And the sofa set are coming in tmr. Again, supposedly.

So looking forward for the home to be completely furnished, and my ankle to get well.

So long. ^^

Just wish that my leg would recovered by this week also. So that i can roam freely my house without my office chair. And that i could bathroom properly without hopping on one leg. =.=

I haven unpack anything yet. cos 1stly, my house is still in a mess. 2ndly, my foot hurts.

Well, overall, i love the color of my house. They blend in nicely.


My mums taken leave for these 2 days so she could take care of me at home, and also to supervise the work done. haha.

Eh, I really hope to go back taiwan. Theres still alot of places to explore. But until i strengthen my leg muscle, im not permitted to go anywhere without someone by my side. Well, which i agree to. Haha.


My ankle itch like hell now. Hopefully it means that its recovering ever so quickly..

Cya soon!

Finally, im back to my home sweet home.

Without internet, i could die of boredom. Luckily kevin lend me his DS to play with.

Anyway, I came back from taiwan as well. Unfortunately, i fell from the 2-steps stairs in the toilet while i reached hualian. The thing is, its on the evening of the 3rd day already. So hmm.. =\ Pray i dont miss out much. Haha.

But the hostel in hualian is heaven. LOL. Its a terrace house that is rented out to tourists.

I am seriously bad that i made ppl wait on me. Well, literally, since i cant even walk. I sprained badly, so dear carried me everywhere.

I spent on the hospital bills, cab fare and the wheelchairs rental at the airport. They are all quite cheap compared to singapore, which i didnt mind.
I still have enough money, considering i dint go out anymore on that fateful day. Haha.

At home now. Dad n mum helped to set up my com, which i gratefully thanks. LOL. I miss my com!

So relieved that the booking of flight is finally done. except for the hotels. =.=

So looking forward to the trip! =D


Oooh, and the renovation!!

Just hoping that my last paper to pass over smoothly soon. And then i can happily pack all my stuffs to my aunt's house, while waiting to go on the trip and the renovation. Yay!

And so many things to be done. Shopping, hanging out, etc etc.

Oh so motivated now! Keke.

Miss ya guys~!

Okayy i am officially sick. I should ve noticed that when i have my splitting headache, ulcer and sore throat at the same time.

Though those subside abit for now, i have flu instead. Making me feel wholesome sicker.

den this bloody sore throat and ulcer wouldnt go away. The sore throat got abit better, but den de ulcer stays there even if i put salt on it several times.

i guess my body heat is rising, thats why. but im not having a fever. hmm. the medicine and the ill is making my head swing.

oh man, how to study for my last paper. =(((

poor thing my frens. luckily i haven take year 2 subjects yet. cos they still have 3 more papers to go.

and lucky me i only have 1! and its 1 week later. so more time to study. =p

=.= expo been having sales and exhibitions. they are the ones using our hall 7-9 so that our exam have to be all the way in hall 1. Thats like a bloody 10mins walk in. Damn it, didnt see the loreal sale coming. should have gone there after exam yday. =.=


anyway, been having the vomitting desire of headache. since like few days ago.

sigh wish it would go away. its affecting my studying mood and also my playing mood. Keke.


hmm 1 more week till holiday! so happy. on the other hand, i would miss my frens. they are the ones with me throughout my 2 years SIM life. wonder if i get to see some of them next year, when we have diff modules. hope we choose the same elective. =p

and how would i survive my last year without them. =(( they would sure all graduate 1 year b4 me. (and again lemme emphasize, i dint fail so to get me another year, i just never take a first yr module.)

well at least, next time i get a job i'll get them to find me similar ones from their company. wahaha. (den again, what about my dream career? =.=)

well my dad left for china yday. He went there to work for 3 weeks.

Situated in shanghai, i believe him to be safe.

anyway, he arrived safely and is online now. haha. hes trying to use skype to communicate with us.

which is why he bought me this webcam.



yeap, on the other hand, after he comes home, the renovations gonna start.

and happy us!

Should i get a camera? hm. i want a sony one. i like a slick design and one that is slim. but of cos it aint cheap. We'll see.

did i mention my brother bought grand theft auto for his ps3 and mario kart wii already?




he bought O.C season 1 as well. We watched a few episodes together and he booked in and

damn it! he locked the O.C in his drawer!! =.=

hes a few episodes ahead of me while i studied and now i cant catch up to him.

O.C is created by the same author as gossip girl. So Gossip girl is like O.C. They have filthy rich ppl and they have extremely beautiful rich kids.



Hmm, okay time to get back to my study. Tmrs the 3rd paper. Sure hope the qns isnt that hard.

Cant afford to fail this core unit. Haiz.

believe me, ive tried.

it doesnt seem to work at all. ive memorised and decipher any meaning to the questions.

whatever i do, however hard i work, i dont think it really make a difference.

if its meant to be, it is meant to be.

if it isnt, dont force it down ur throat. you will be gagged.

Now im just scared of every single exam.

im afraid that my hard work doesnt pay off. Bcos by the end of the day, im not cut out for this.

Its the same for the rest of me.



and by the way, i just want some comforting words, saying that ive done my best. Theres nth else i could do.

"You never study ENOUGH rite?" I cannot even believe this is coming out of the mouth of someone i thought who should know me well.

Im pissed off by even the tone of it, can you believe that i wont try to listen for more?



I dont understand. I really dont.

I cant understand how the possiblitity of failure is high when i try so hard?

Oh right. Because its ME.



I wont admit im stupid. 'Cos i know i am not. Im way above that (although not to the extend that im smart too). Thats no way im categorised under that.

im so frustrated by my own mistakes.

im full of guilt, sadness, perplexness, and downright lonely. (i am lonely by the way, literally.)



So scared of the next paper. I cant predict. I can just hope to make sure i do well.

okayy. seriously pissed off now.


Am not in the mood.


everything just bugs me.


just cannot take my mind off them.

im giving my own career a thought. What do i want to be?


An accountant? A manager? A IT pro?


I dont want to be these ppl. In fact, im thinking these jobs are sooo not me.


I dislike a boring job, i dislike associate with adults or other business colleagues, i hate a confined job although thats the best job for me. irony haha.


my mum keep saying, as long as i got a job, it doesnt matter what job. No, but it does matter to me. I dont want to maintain those job mentioned above for the rest of my life if i ve no passion for them. it will be like, "sux, another day of so-so job again."


my teacher's sis "works" as a volunteer. according to him, she doesnt really care abt the money, but she is happy.


i eventually would still need money, to survive. haha.


den something occurred to me. y dont i volunteer to go to the 幼儿园？it is so not me? haha. i knew you would say that. i love to play. i love to educate kids abt the "right" things in life. i dont care abt earning money. all i want to do is to play and make friends with them.


i dunno why im saying this. i can do all these now. nth can stop me, i know. i can really trying to find something passionate to do. why m i hesitating?


i dont want to stay at home, i dont want a 9-5 job. i just want to relax and enjoy my life. i know i would be so happy at the 幼儿园 all day long. just even thinking abt it makes me happy.


i am not rational k. dun try to persuade me to let me think my idea is sooooo not sensible and naive.


somehow i think in all my life now, this is the most sensible thing that i want to do. i love to think about ppl and try to mould them? haha. experimenting is not a good way to say.


ive given up on psychology, since i cannot get that cert now. but who is to say i cannot ve a similar job? LOL. yes i haven been stop thinking abt psychology, and ppl. huh, suddenly im imagining being a teacher.. =.= thats impossible. im not academically zai.


now i know y i am hesitating. bcos im not capable of anything. i stumble through blocks and blocks of obstacles.


but something abt me is, im able to live with all these stumbling blocks. surprising eh? i cannot give up hope. once i do, u might as well ask me go suicidal. Okayyy, bad thought.


well, once i think of the unfortunates, i dun laugh at them. i linked myself with them. i think i understand what they are going through. yet i think im the most fortunate of all. bcos i love my family, i love my friends, i love what i ve. =)


what i dun ve, i can only ponder over them. but i dont grieve over why.


im thinking how to help the unfortunates become less unfortunate? maybe they are already happy, u dun know that.


how blessed to live in singapore. how blessful it is to live. how on earth r u going to keep surviving. thats the whole point.


lets come back to my career. i am still thinking. what is best for me, totally? lets try to come back to earth. and get a stable job. fine, it doesnt suck so much. its just, very, hmm, tiring.


Look at US ppl, some love their jobs. bcos they have freedom of choice. our govt emphasize on education. they can choose not to study and still live very well.
but of cos, kinda poor though.


life is about choice. one day i might decide to go backpacking for the fun of it, and die somewhere, u dont even know. LOL. fickle me.


BUT,

i am still on that career subject. VERY very tempting. If someone got the same passion, well i wouldnt call it passion, same mind, as me, thats so much fun!


YES, im still into playing and enjoying my life! Thats the youth of life, babes!!







PS: i dont mean exams and getting a degree are not important. Totally diff subjects. LOL

AND sorry this post is long. =P

2 more days to my first paper. its poa.

im so much better to my frens who ve 3 papers consecutively over de next few days.

meanwhile, ive finished studying/revising poa already.

hmmm. waiting for holidays~~~

Oh finally the blogs pic uploading is working.

i have to use picturetrails to edit these pictures. So so waste time!

Yea, heres the photo of the jeans my brother bought for me from indieeeaaa.

I must admit, indian girls are kinda small waist. Not that im fat know, its already my size, but still its abit tight. =.=

okay, my bro recently came back from india, while exploiting his frens, to carry his spoil of war for him. =.=

but best is, he bought a nice pair of levi jean for me!! i cant upload the pics, i dunno why.



yday, went to have secret receipe at imm with my family. Didnt know today is mother's day until yday. haha.

anw, took a cab home.


been studying non-consistently for a few days now. Haiz. Should be able to continue again next week. First paper start on the week after next.

Keep fingers cross.

Till then.

im sure i dun need to post anymore pics, since love and jo already did.

But for the sake of my fav gor and cousins, here it is:

Btw, i haven blog my event on that day?

pic in thai express

ladies in black!

=.=

SMILE?!!

Eh?!

Well, well. look whos back in action.

TCL=The Cool Lady

erm, perhaps not totally black..

cheezzz!!

finally, done!

Meetups on 29 apr to have the free b&j ice cream. It closed when we reached at 6.50pm. =.=

Anw, me, jo and sheng waited for the rest to arrive b4 we went in to thai express.

dear dear came after we finished cos he just booked out that night.

Went to starbucks to chill out, cos it seems the best thing to do le. Its a weekday ma.

Headed home around 11pm. =D had fun! lets organise more of these 'kay?

these 2 days been shopping in bugis cos its on sale!

(Thurs)

Was really tempting to get a Braun Buffel wallet for both dear and me. But there wasnt a really nice design for the both of us.

But in the end, gotten a nice pair of shoes. ^^ And its only 25 bucks after discount!

(Today)

Shopped in Top shop! May sale 20% off!
I got 4 cute tops, 1 jeans and 1 cute white skirt. Sign up for the free membership. ^^

Other than that, bought a novel in kino, and watched iron man after shopping. Wahaha. How enjoyable is today man!!


My retail therapy will continue after june, for destress. =D

Not bad, spend quite a great deal of money on this 2 shopping days. Proud. And so it continues. LOL

Waiting for the GSS!! ^^

Emotional shag.

I really wish we can communicate freely.

Somehow its restricted because of frustration and annoyance.

Listening, gradually, stop too.

The forbidden kingdom is quite a funny and a good show. I was quite amused to find Jet Li acting so mischievous as a Monkey king.

One thing they shouldnt do is speaking in english. It sounds like direct translation from Mandarin. Especially the conversation btw the Xiao Yan Zi and the Silent Monk. Wah, and even the Yu Di can speak english! =.=

I dont mind if only jet li, jacky chan and that boy converse in english. At least thats english subtitles rite?

The show is so wierd to be hearing them conversing in english. Was actually quite happy to hear some mandarin in the movie. Bai fa mo nu was so li hai. But die horribly, hahaha.

and lu yan was really immortal........

God, its not bcos i din study for my prelims okay?!

Its the essay answers, thats either not long enough or the marker just dun think my essay as a pass. I really did think I answered to the qns. I am just as baffled.

If its that easy to score, we would all be getting distinctions.

Even if you pass, its still borderline passing.

There are simply no right and wrong answers.

I do agree that i dun do essays in the past, which is why writing could be really a tedious task for me.

I am seriously practicing now. Kinda hard but have to do.

Meow.

1 more month till final.

You can do it man!

邵钰茹是一位名副其实的“慢拍者”。


走路比人慢。写字比人慢。连玩游戏也比人慢半拍。


费尽心思想要赶上一般人，却始终也做不到。


年老后会是怎么样呢？想也不敢想。因为也不只是这个因素。而是一个不为人知的秘密。


跌倒了。怎么办？再把起来当作没发生过。而且跌到不只是一次罢了。


这也是因为这样才会乐观。难道上帝知道，所以才给我一个乐观的态度来度过一辈子？

一直以来都无法觉醒的在人之间打转。现在才来担心将来。

我呢，也不知为人带来多少的困扰和无奈。

是该去做检查了吗？

人们说维持一段长久的感情， 突然不得不分开的时候，却是非常惋惜的。

可是我们不妨想一想，如果它俩人维持这段关系时又辛苦又煎熬，分开倒不如是一件解脱的事罢了。

要持续一段感情就必须先要向彼此学习人情世故。如何对待彼此也是一种关键。

幸福是掌握在自己手上。我们有能力改变全世界，何不先从自己的事昨首？

一个人的寿命是短暂的。如果不懂得承受一丝的痛苦或不满，怎能看得到美好的未来？

用乐观的态度来对待生命岂非更好？失败了就要懂得从新补救，偶尔也要懂得释怀。

执著没有结果。从另一个角度来对待艰难的过程是新的出发点。

这样的度过起起落落来完成生命的使命。

What do i want to update?

Been to revision for couple of days per week.

Should start mugging long ago. Haiz. Did study little by little.

Its apr now. 2 more months till stress-free days arrive!

My new router came, finally, last week. I manage to set up all the coms in my house. though its a bit tricky to use the cable all the way to my outside desktop.

Finally, been dreaming of my/our vacations for months already. When are we going to book it, my dears? Of cos it must be during the school breaks.

lets really recap whens my "supposed trips". Two should be in june/july, and 1 should be in dec. And all these are so unconfirmed. =( Wah, cannot, we should meet up and go over our schedules and confirm our dates the sooner, the better.

The hols trip would be fully booked if we din do it earlier.


Meanwhile..

im scared to see my POA mock exam result. now i really think my poa is really lousy. im better in qualitative exams.

Okay gotta go, see ya guys!

Relationships are so unpredictable.

You may love me now, but would you get tired and sick of me when days pass? Would you already found someone else, unknowingly?

Would faithful boy last forever? Am i the wrong girl for you, after all these times?

I am scared of this, sometimes.


When it fails, really, just move on. Do not keep any lingering memories. I only stored two away, only bcos they are unburnable and expensive, and never even bringing out to look at. Dont even try to feel nostalgic.

keep only happy thoughts. Hard but please try.

Saying I love you
Is not the words I want to hear from you
Its not that I want you
Not to say, but if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldnt have to say that you love me
Cos Id already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldnt make things new
Just by saying I love you

More than words

Now Ive tried to talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close dont ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldnt have to say that you love me
Cos Id already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldnt make things new
Just by saying I love you

More than words

i actually didnt really sit down at my desk to study for 2 weeks already.

Its time to start mugging again. From dawn till dusk. Methaphorically.

Actually feel kind of uneasy the past few days just playing games the whole day. Cos i didnt touch my notes for abit.

Its not like i havent alot of time to study. i have. but den again, maybe like betty, i like mugging? LOL.


Well, back to update.

dear is off for the whole week again.

so yday he came to help me set up the ethernet cable from the living room all the way to my room's desktop. haha. for the record, its bcos of the fast internet speed to download his cs and team fortress on my com.

haven really been going out. part of it was bcos of the unfathomable weather. and the other was lazy.


anyway i should get going now. or else i would get stuck here at my desktop again.

bye.

Arh, another "busy" day --------------- playing game.

I did achieve something by listening intently in class from 10-5 on 2 weekends. and yes, i REALLY wanting to doze off in class. So tired.

tmr and fri is another long UOL lesson. haiz.


i think i will not going to sleep well for 6 months. I am rather tense up. and even though sleeping enough hours is not enough for me.

been sleeping late and waking up late and still feel tired. of cos, the longer u sleep, the more exhausted u feel.

although im sleepy, i dont want to sleep. bcos just thinking of the kind of wierd dreams when i drift off is scary. its not the nightmares that scary, its the different type of phenomenon that is the opp of my life that scares me.

to simplify - it is often says that ur dreams are the opposite or rather what u r wishing for unconciously in ur life. it may be also be due to the diff kinds of moods that u r having. eg. stress that im facing.


i dont know. i think everything happening to me, especially, is extra difficult. i need to try hard, not just to make it happen. im not talking abt a specific task, but the avg kind of task.

i dun really understand what is the meaning of behaving normally, bcos i dont.

oh just in case u dun understand, u dun ve to. =)


There are really diff kind of humans on earth that we cant accept. Or rather we cant make ourselves admit that its true. So we stick to the norms. if theres something peculiar, we can not help but wonder.

i like psychology bcos i like to think abt ppl and their actions. Somewhat fascinating and disgusted.

Why do ppl pray? why do ppl commit sins? why do ppl do the things they can choose not to do?



Gotta sleep now. Nites.

Both dear and gw booked out yday to clear their leaves.

Made me confused todays day. Haha.

I keep thinking, tmr is sat rite? then my bro say tmr is not sat lor. its wed today laa.

anw, hes leaving for india in another 3 weeks i think.

whenever they r home, they disrupt my routine, like my breakfast, lunch n dinner. tsk tsk.

its like having 2 boyfriends. =.= although the other one is to just accompany him play game, watch tv n shopping. wait. thats not right. both are actually like that lor. =.=


Its was not raining here b4 i left with gw to imm. but it was at kevin's so he decided not to come.

cabbed to imm when it started drizzling.

ate at cafe cartel. omg, guess whats for free dessert? its mini poppin' from walls or kings?! no wonder its free.

saunter from shops to shops looking for games. not shopping for clothes though. no mood to do that shopping and theres really not much apparel shops.

in the end bought a wii game, bully scholarship. its abt a student going ard his school studying, wooing girls, saving students from bullies, etc.

cabbed home. its still raining.

dear took off and we went out on friday to marina. Lunched at asian kitchen and then went to watch Step up 2. Brought nachos in. As usual, we finished it up during the show. LOL

Walked about finding wallets and polo shirts. Still did not manage to get anything.

Dinner was at secret receipe. Ok fine, it was just snack on the mouth-watering chocos mousse.

Went home after the dinner. I realise when im in town and theres 502, i would take them. Simply lazy to take train and then take bus again. Haha.


Heres the exciting part. Although im like, hellooo(semi-concuss), all the way. I guess its the crowd and the weather.

Went to kevin's to eat lunch that his mum cook. Around 3.30pm, we met my brother at bugis and headed to sls.

Dear asked for my specs and all while i just wait and of cos, listen as well. Reasonable price, well, i meant to say cheap. LOL.

I got the latest graphic card, a normal 2.33ghz intel core duo, a 2gb ram, lg dvdrom, and a nice casing for 1013 bucks. Paid cash cos they would add a 2% surcharge if pay by nets.

The building was done in half hour's time. Walked abt with my two fav guys looking for games, "that can be tested on my com". Strictly speaking, they are exploiting me and my desktop.

Cabbed home. Set up the drivers and windows. Wait for the installation and we went to eat at kfc.

My parents werent home yet. They went to the constructor's showroom.

Headed to seow choon to check out new games, and den went home to play smash bro brawl. Oh, its a wii game that gw just buy. Its fun, cos players just fight each other using the various nintendo characters.

My dear cousins, if u r reading this, u r so not going to miss this game. im planning to ask u guys come n play. cos one of kevin's wiimote is with me. LOL

So long~

went shopping in isetan with kw on thurs. Woah, my shoes were torturing me! They are like the killers of the year! Man, i must remember again to cut my toe nails whenever wearing these kind of shoes.

Anyway, met kw at orchard. Then we went straight in, while flashing her isetan newsletter. First stop, mango. Tried 2 cute blouses and 2 pants. Love the blouses but the pants were too long, and erm, abit tight. LOL. Bought them with kw's isetan card with additional 10% discount!^^ thx alot!

We went about looking for clothes and bras. LOL. kw bought a hair clip. she didnt really buy anything though.

Were finally starving. So went to cold storage and bought sushi pack to enjoy, while kw had some fancy bread, like breadtalk's bread. We den continue shopping. LOL

I was supposed to look for men's polo tees and wallets but none came as fancy or appropriate to me.

Had dinner at tcc. Wasnt that hungry but i need to eat dinner, ya know? Haha. Paid and den went off to wisma!

went looking for kw's shoes. And unlucky her, those she like were neither her size nor perfect. In the end, she got a tube from mango.

Was exhausted and i was in excruciating pain. Nonetheless, i bid goodbye to kw at the mrt station, where i went to take 502 at the other side of the station. And lucky! Found a seat! Reach home at 9.30pm.

To study well for essay exams -

NB: My method of studying. LOL. Just want to rmb.

1st tip: keep a personal portable-size notebook. (With no calendars, whatsoever)
2nd tip: do a mindmap yourself. (study well and then do)
3rd tip: attempt past yr qns. (pencilled ans in points on qn paper)
4th tip: practice and practice essays writing. (Structure well and ans to the qn.)
5th tip: Refer to your mindmap-cum-notebook from time to time.

And think lots of real life examples to connect to essays.


So far i haven got the time to practice yet. Shall do it next week.

Btw, u can also do those for non-essays writing like POA. ^^

poa was bad bad bad. not that its really bad, but really really bad. =(

what is relieved is its finally over. =D

Shall rest for a week first. Revision starting next week also.


Bought a monitor for my desktop at the IT fair. So the next step is to build a computer at SLS. Starting from Saturday onwards.

My dad upgrade our singnet to the 8mbps also. Its abit late to upgrade but still at least my internet connection should now improve with the new modem. *hoping not another lousy modem, else gotta buy*

Hmm, guess should start shopping too. My to-do list has been sitting there ever since.

Hah! abit reward for myself for studying hard, not hard enough though. LOL

I should go do the things i left pending also. Haiz. So many fun things to do ^^

I guess i am so currently under stress. My head is going to explode if i take in more information.

Anyway, so stress that i cannot get to sleep well. Recently i keep sleeping late and waking up late and surprisingly, my head doesnt hurt. Although its good in a sense, but i got a feeling im under stress thats y. Or maybe the morning pills really does help in erm, blood circulation? Haha.

To help in motivation, i ve decided! I promise u guys we go out next week, ok? Sorry eh. Especially xx n yw.

Jiemeis! Good news! Gossiping session coming up! Woohoo! LOL.

Meanwhile, urgh. Monday. =

2 birds down! But man, those birds are difficult to shoot down.

Anyway, last prelim paper on next monday. Hopefully POA wont die that bad too. Haha.

haiz. been studying from afternoon till nighttime. Stress and used up alot of my energy. Now im feeling so tired now. Waking up late also. Just ate only. Later my mum scold me for not being able to eat her dinner again. LOL.

I guess i will be able to shop after my last prelim paper. since i got 2 more months till final. Haha. =.= *Sigh*

Ooh, and new computer! I dont know when im getting it, but im surely getting one.

Because of the finals, we will have to postpone the renovation. Im so reluctant to bring all my books to my relatives hse and study. Its better to be alone at home and mug. 5 weeks eh! how to study like that rite? June holidays is still possible. I might not be in singapore anyways.


Hah! My motivation for studying are all based on these. Lol

Feeling so lethargic now. ~o~ Si neh.

This melody matches my feeling now.

I love this song whenever i feel down.

I should think "The Leap Years" is a nice show to watch. I didnt watch but the trailers shown on tvmobile.

Its 29th of Feb today. I wonder if Wong Li Lin is going to meet the guy every 29th feb, wont that be a painful reunion? Having to wait 4 years after meeting?

I dont know the exact details of the show yet. But i think its quite a touching story. I might even cry if i watch it. =)

What if u r born on the 29th feb? Haha. Wont that make u younger from ur age ppl by alot? LOL. Okay, no one counts that way. =

Saturday, dear came over to accompany me study. 'Fact is he napped, while i study.

Anyway, our renovation contractor came over around 5pm to take a look at our house. So excited! New and pretty flat is coming!

Kevin and i went to jp to eat at mac. We den walked around b4 going home. Going jp is to let me relax after studying for so hard. Haha.

Sunday, I stayed at home to study. My aunties came over to have dinner.

Finally today, one prelim module down. 3 more to go. Tmr den start studying for OTIA.

IS prelim is at 7-10pm next tue. =.=

One more is POA, on the 10 mar.

And den, wait for Revision and Final Exam. Hai.

What is a relationship?

It is one where 2 persons protect, love and care for one another. It means there is a second person in your life. You treat them like how you treat yourself.

Unfortunately, not many understand this emotional logic. Breakups and divorces thus often occur. A relationship, furthermore, consists of communications and compromises.

It is not one when you run away when there's a setback but to solve it and keep your relationship going. Flame will burn out but have you done your part to keep it burning?

Okk, update.

Nth much is going on. Except that my house would be soon undergoing renovation. We already bought our lights. Finally, a shower in the guest's bathroom. No, really. Anyone whos been to my house will noe that we only have one shower head in my parents room. Haha.

Well, my father asked if i want to change my comp not? OF COS'!! lol. Hes waiting for the IT fair in march.

So not the mood to go shopping right this few months. Sorry jo, gotta wait abit more. Haha. Its exam time again.

I am so going Taiwan with dear this june or july. Cant wait for the final exam to be over man. Hmm, other than that, everythings pretty much the same.

Went to watch Chingay yesterday. Dear's dad got tickets so we are able to watch the performance upfront. And! The first f1 racing car I have seen yday during the show. Except for the shape that zoom past, we could see nthing else. LOL. Still fascinated though.

Hmm. Thinking about my soon-to-be new renovated flat, my new comp, my dad's new job, and perhaps, a new car. New things are good. It boosts the economy. LOL. New year, new stuffs, new beginning. How happy. *dreamy*

Just buy new ps3 game or wii game and everyday enjoy the fun, at home. Haha.

CNY was so-so.

And this year's abit special for us cos we din go bai nian on the first day. My mum wasnt feeling well.

We went to the clinic with her and the next day she was alright.


Chu Er we went to the temple in the morning, den visit my aunt's at tampines, and den around late afternoon, we went back to jurong to my uncle's for steamboat. Came home around 9.


Chu San: my relatives came and spend the afternoon until 3plus. My cousins stayed back to entertain themselves with our Wii. Haha.

I left ard 5.30 to meet kevin at bugis where we were having steamboat near the shaw tower with his frens. Left at 10.30pm to his place. He was having flu so we didnt go to his fren's hse.
Came home the next day.

I was so ignorant of my handling of relationships in the past that i keep hurting people who really care about me.

I am so sorry! =(

Truly, Deeply Sorry.

Last friday, i went to shop with joanne at orchard. Went wisma looking for shoes. Then walked to pacific plaza to fix my fossil. After which we went far east to look for more shoes. Love came to join us after she went to the nokia service center. I ve gotten my 3 pairs of ear studs while betty bought a very sexy lit' black dress. Hehe.

Anyway, we continue to walk around and had shi lin's ji pa and drank milk tea. We went back to look for rings as well. Around 6.30pm, we went back to get my fossil and betty's phone. But she had to wait for her phone until 7.30pm so me n jo went off first. She went home while i went to find kevin.

Dear was off on last fri too. But we went to meet his frens for dinner. Had dinner at marina's HK cafe. was planning to bowl but there were too many ppl. In the end, we went walking about marina wondering what to do next.

Finally, we walked to esplanade. Was still thinking and waiting for clara to arrive. Went back to pacific cafe, i think ard the walkway outside btw cityhall mrt and marina. Head home on 502 ard 11.30pm. bcos its too late, kevin stayed over for the night.

---

The next day, we went mac with my bro for brunch. And then went seow choon to buy a ps3 game. Dear parted with us around 3 pm and went home.

Gw and I went home to try our new game! How exciting. Oh, I din mention that we got a ps3 as well? haha.

Okay, so we left home to go our nanny's hse for reunion dinner. (Yup, they do it earlier every year) My bro ate and left earlier cos he gotta go to his fren's dance concert. I stayed there with my parents until 8 plus and went home as well.

---

Hmm. Sunday I was at home doing my project, i think. And playing games. Haha. Oh, My brother and i went down to JP to return his DVD and to buy Wii component cable.

Monday, gw went to collect the free Hitachi HDMI cable (cable that renders better graphic) for PS3. So before that we had lunch and took 99. While i went to sch, he went to alexandra road. Finally finished my project after school.

Tue I was free as well. Went down to the immigrations with my bro to renew his passport. (hes going india) Yea, and then we went to orchard (again? LOL) to shop for clothes and the shoe i din manage to get on friday. Went to taka, that i din go with love and jo on fri, and walked around.

Gw bought his clothes from Timberland and we went Coffee Club to have our cakes and teas. Paid and left to find my shoe. Finally, gotten one satisfactory sandals and took 502 home.

Note: I could slash off my shoes under my to-do list, but its not really the ones i like. But the shoes i bought is pretty, according to my consultant. Haha.

---

*To-do list updated*



Anyway, if everything goes well, should go fix my watches tmr with jo.



Yday i went for rebonding. I asked about the price of rebonding. They say its 165 for long hair length + treatment + cut. Crap, i saw 105++(short hair) on the board outside somemore. Bought shampoo and conditioner from them and got a electric straightener free. Spend about 220 altogether. Sigh.



After finishing, it was pouring so i went to walk around before heading home. But then again, i realised my hair wasnt straight enuff. My annoying frizz hair (notice)is curling abit. So while it was raining, i asked for a repair. I expect a good rebond esp when i paid so much.



Luckily after i was done, it stopped raining. Went home after that. Sigh, I did it for ard 5 hrs. They didnt even tell me not to wash my hair for 3 days. Guess they assume I noe well enough since i did it before. But still, what if ive forgotten and wenta wash? Tsk tsk.




Pics of my after-rebonding hair! Hey I maintain it with the straightener k?






NB: Betty, the Loreal treatment is 55 bucks, guess its my hair length. But still they asked u to go over, cos there's different kind of treatment. I recommend not to go. Haha.




Anw, shall study for tmr POA test. Haiz. Cya guys during CNY, if possible.

some 1 week ago, we went to shop more ny clothes for dear. he went to wear his newly bought, supposed for cny tshirt! =.=

anyway, we went marina square and hear olivia's songs playing in a music shop. So we went to enquire the 5th album and bought it!


Shuai ge wont let me take a photo of him. =(


So i took a photo of Olivia instead. HAHA!


N me!

Last week, went Bugis street to search for jeans for him. Bad decision to make. Everyone was making last min shopping. We gave up trying to look for jeans and being squashed at the same time, so we went back to bugis mall. Had nydc for lunch. yummy baked rices, but not the potato skin appetizer. =(

Headed to the arcade. This girl, who was shooting hoops, was really good at aiming. She broke the record of that machine. I was in awe and erm, envy. haha. Anyway we went to the LAN lab. I call it the 'gaming lab'. Its like my IT lab in my poly laa. Although those ppl were playing instead of studying. wahaha.

Went home soon. To 'rip' the 2nd album of Olivia. lol.

Going to rebond later. Cya!
