I'll make this a brief entry.. Tomorrow is my first day of work at my new jobs. Yes, jobS. Job no 1: Admin Assistant at Starhub Ltd. Job no 2: Waitressing at Noodle House. Rather tired now, after a fun afternoon with Jean and Xueli.. Wanna thank Jean for the earrings, thank Xueli for remembering to return me my container, and thank both of them for bringing me so much fun and laughter! Get to catch a glimpse of Wilson this afternoon.. That's better than nothing I guess, since he'll be busy with his school work, and I'll be busy with my 2 jobs.. Going to work early tomorrow morning! Won't be back till the next morning.. Sigh means I don't get to play neopets tomorrow.. Oh well. What I'm a little worried about is, tomorrow is my 2nd day of my period.. A bit xiong to have period and working so long.. But I hope God will just give me the strength to pull through! And must thank my grandma for her chicken essence. :D Thanks a lot to everyone, for making me feel so loved even though sometimes you people nag at me a lot! Haha. But really, I truely appreciate everyone's concern for me, and happy that at least there are so many people out there caring for me. Hope I'll have a dreamless sleep tonight.. Take care you folks out there!

Wanna tell you people about my Cookie Monster in the office! If you

guys happen to read my previous entry (the one with photos), then you

people would know that I am back at the same place for work today. Just

that, I'm doing more clearance stuff instead of admin. But I don't

mind, really. I think I had quite a great time in fact! Less boring,

just that a little tiring, and felt a little heaty from drinking too

much Milo. Addictive, really. Before I continue with my Cookie Monster,

I shall blog about what happened in the morning..





According to my mum, the washing machine is SPOILED!! Oh my gosh..

Sigh. It's terrible when machinery spoils, because there is no man in

the house to fix it or do anything about it. Hell with it, the only

existing MAN in the house is the one who spoiled it. And since he's an

irresponsible man who's not even worth my calling him dad, he

definitely wouldn't do anything about it either. SO....... If I don't

mind if anybody can come and help me do something about it.. Ok back to

the main topic. The washing machine is spoiled, so the clothes haven't

been washed, and so are all my jeans! Sigh I wanna faint already. I

only like found out that I don't have any jeans to wear anymore, nor

pants, so I have to wear skirts. Headache!! For one, most of us should

know that it is not very matching to wear skirts with sport shoes,

especially the more formal skirts. I cannot possibly wear skirts that

look like beachwear either. So I ended up wearing this white skirt,

that wouldn't look weird with shoes with shoelaces. Why I wanted to

wear shoes is because, my feet have not really recovered from the

terrible sore and peeling skin after I last wore my black shoes (that

would be the recent Sunday). So yah. I was nearly late for work because

I was having a headache on what to wear. I was so anxious when I was at

City Hall waiting for train at 9:49am waiting for a train that would

only come in 5mins time, leaving with only 6mins for me to walk and

cross the road and all. I felt like an ant on the.. er.. hot wok. Ok

never mind, that's translated from a chinese idiom.





Things went well at work, my boss was happy to see me. Hehe. I cleared

brochures, booklets that are out of date.. Then Stephanie (fellow

colleague) came to me with an envelope thick with paper. On it says P

& C (private and confidential). Steph asked if I could help he

shred the papers when I'm done with clearing the booklets. I said,

"YES!! CAN CAN!!" Very enthusiastic about it, because I think it's fun

to play with the paper shredder! Never really did it before mah. Haha.

Steph was very amused, she said, "Hahaha I know you like to play with

the shredder, so I thought of letting you do it." Hehehehe. So sweet of

her! I wouldn't mind if they have tons of it to let me shred. So, I

happily shred my papers, while watching the shredder ate it up. Then,

it reminded me of something. COOKIE MONSTER! Yes, the paper shredder is

my Cookie Monster that I mentioned just now. Well, try imagining the

Cookie Monster ok. How does the Cookie Monster eat cookies? Gobble

right!! Then you'll see the cookie crumbs flying outta his mouth in

every direction. Just like MY COOKIE MONSTER (MCM)! MCM gobbles up the

papers with a terrible grunt, then spurting out some bits of paper

sometimes. Ok, a little lousy maybe. But it's cute. Hehe. Here's some

pictures of MCM!




 Top view of my Cookie Monster. Oh, that's MY SHOES..




 This is MCM from the front! Ok not exactly front.. The blue blue stuff is the plastic bag to contain the paper shreds.








 This is the floor, where the white white parts are paper bits.





SEE WHAT I MEAN? Yes, it's just like cookie monster! I'll miss My

Cooking Monster, because today is my last day.. Really last day, cos

I've got a new job, that commences next Monday! That's really fast

right? My boss told me actually they have a receptionist position, they

need somebody to stand in.. My 2 bosses wanted me to continue, cos they

said I'm a responsible person! AW.... So sweet! But I cannot, and I

don't really want to, because it's only $6 per hour, and I don't wanna

work only for a month and go through all the trouble to find another

job again. The feeling of having to wait and hoping to get employed

sucks, you know? So I recommended Winnie Mina to the receptionist job

instead! That's because I thought she wouldn't mind, since she's

getting paid the same at HSBC doing customer service. Anyway, this

receptionist job is much easier for her, and she is leaving her HSBC

job soon, and can at most work for another month, and reception would

not be difficult for her since she did worse like cust svc, and she can

work longer hours for this job, and get more pay, and wake up later

too. Just what she needs! I'm glad she is happy about the new job.. As

for me, I'll be working at Starhub from next Monday onwards. No, not

customer service, but admin. $7 per hour, but some of the pay will go

to my CPF. The place is quite ulu, so I hope that I will be able to

leave early on certain day of the week so I can travel to Noodle House

to work my night shift. Don't worry people, I will take care of my

health! I know a lot of people warned me about how taxing or tiring

things can get.. I'm quite mentally prepared, really.. It's better to

work hard now and earn more, than slogging myself by working part time

and studying when I'm in Adelaide.. I'm thankful that there're so many

people concerned about me.. :D Thanks a lot guys!





That's about it.. Ate lunch with Winnie today at Park Mall here, talked

a lot.. Hee. Was a little tired from the work after lunch, because I

was assigned to clear their cupboards as well. The old stuff, the

files, the old uniforms, etc etc. SO MANY!! I got a little dizzy after

climbing up the down the chairs to get stuff and dump them.. But it was

less boring than my previous data entry thing.





Life's good.. I got to go home slightly earlier because I am

efficient.. Hehe.. Got quite a few stuff to do now.. Shall go bathe

first! :D

Ok, decided to post up another entry.. Wanna describe my bag a bit. Hehehehe. It's pretty, pretty, and pretty! It's thankfully, big enough to contain my umbrella! Yay! There's still room for my wallet of course, and keys and scrunchie and handphone and maybe even my schedule book! It's not very big, but it's big enough I guess. Perfect! :D

And.. A little about this stupid email that friendster sent. Grr. What's wrong with friendster, really.. Anyway, Winnie Mina was supposed to add me on friendster, but friendster told her that her account is already full, although she had only 104 friends! What's their problem la. So I added her, and she accepted it on the spot, and it got through. So after she accepted, I got an email from friendster..

Subject: Whew! Winnie really does like you on Friendster

Contents: You put yourself on the line, risked it all and it has paid off richly. Winnie has accepted your invitation to be Friendsters! Oh the times you'll have - - chatting, joining groups together, checking out your joint horoscope, reading each other's blogs, and more.

Don't forget to leave a testimonial for Winnie

- Your Friends at Friendster




How spastic can they get.

Took picture of this while I was at work yesterday.. This is the cover

of the dividers.. Take a look at what it says.. (The next photo below.)








Engrish?





* * * * * *





I woke up at 7am today!! Even though I don't have work today.. -yawnz-

Went

to Wilson's house in the morning, gave him our anniversary present.

Haha. Talked a lot.. That's quite rare really.. Haha.. Because

sometimes we have nothing much to say, just enjoying each other's

company, each other's presence.. Waited for him to print his notes and

stuff, then we left to take train.. On our way to Bedok Interchange, I

received a phone call from Recruit Express to go down to Orchard for a

job interview. The people are so efficient! I'm happy of course.. At

the possibility of having another job, which means gonna have income

too! Haha. Then I went to meet Shin to buy my Jeans

Bag from Manzana, while Wilson left for school.





Was super late when I met Shin, but thankfully she's still happy and

smiley, and doesn't blame me for being late! Hehe. What a nice sister.

:D Our first stop: MANZANA!!! Whee!!! Finally, after waiting sooooo

long! Really overjoyed when I bought the bag.. Hehe. We were rather

hungry too.. Went to Marina Square's foodcourt for lunch..




This

is a picture of Shin eating! I insisted on taking the photo, because if

you know her since primary school, you would probably know that it's

rather difficult to catch her eating. Hahahahaha.. She was quite shy

la, so I told her to bend her head a little. The food wasn't sumptuous,

but we were hungry then.. Hehe.



After lunch, we headed for The Esplanade Library to return my library

book (which is overdue by a day, sigh) before going to Orchard for my

job interview. We walked around at Heeren, chatted a lot.. OH!!! And we

were thinking that perhaps while I'm at Adelaide, Shin, Ting and Cherie

could take a holiday there and visit me at the same time! So FUN!!! Ok

enough of that, or I'd be too excited to sleep. Haha. Shin accompanied

me for the job interview, which took quite long, so we tried to

entertain ourselves and did these......





Here they are. We took photos of my newly bought Jeans Bag from Manzana! Woohoo!

This

is how the bag can be used. The strap is long, so it can be slung

across my body. Quite useful when I'm lazy to hold my bag.




I

changed the strap! It is detachable.. Yup. And I used a shorter strap

that came along with the bag, and this is how it looks! Quite sweet

right the bag!






Shin

said she like this photo. Hahaha.. Maybe it's just the bag la huh..

Lolx. This is how the bag looks closed-up.. Without any of the straps

on. :D








Shin posing with the bag! That is how it is to be held when it is

without the strap.. So pretty right Shin? I told her to pose like that.

Muahahaha.








Think my photography skills not very good.. Haha. Shin is supposed to

pose and do the look-away look.. Ahahahahah.. Oh well.. Pretty anwyay.

Hehe.





So yup, the interview went well, I should know the results by tomorrow

or the day after. Funny thing is, GMP (another job agency) called me up

again to tell me to go back for work at Nu Skins again tomorrow. Lolx.

Suddenly I feel like I'm so wanted by so many companies!! Hahahaha.. So

yup, I'm working tomorrow, and meeting Winnie Mina for lunch again!

Hehe. I wanna thank God too.. Because if I wasn't supposed to stop work

today, I would have probably really lost a job.. And thank Him for

planning in such a way that I get to go for the job interview and still

stick to the job at Nu Skins.. :D Thanks a million zillion Lord! Hehe.

I'm a happy girl today..





Went to buy dinner from Paradiz and Chicken pie from Hans place..

Headed home, and here I am now! Super tired, but at least I've blogged,

right? Haha. Good night folks..

I met Winnie Mina today! So she's working very very near me. Haha. Finally gonna have a lunch mate tomorrow, after working for 8 days already. :D I shall not sleep to late again today, otherwise I'll be sleepy again tomorrow! My job is ending soon, so I hope I'll get another job soon..

Ok think I gonna make this a brief post.. Laosai-ed in the morning.. Only Jean knows really what it is like.. Hahahaha.. Went for Big Walk in the morning with Cherie. Met her at 630am in the morning at Tanah Merah MRT! Covered nearly 10K of walking with Cherie, talked and talked and talked and talked.. And TALKED!!! Twins will always have things to talk about, except for things like dabianing.. =( Super exhausted when I got home, grabbed this spring roll and carrot cake on the table and ate it. Drank 1.5 cups of milk! No wonder I dabianed again. Bathed, changed into something nicer before I left for church choir practice. Wore the new black shoes, feet hurt like hell! But I shall wear it more often, so that the shoe wouldn't shrink, and make my feet worse in future. Choir practice was good.. Thanks Dora for giving me a lift to Bedok MRT so I could sleep a little in her car.. Took train to Bugis after that, strolled around the whole place, feet aching. Bought a little anniversary gift for my darling.. Haha. A tick on my to-do list! Then, had class dinner at Bugis, I don't know where it exactly is.. We had steamboat, it was enjoyable too! Missed those people.. Gosh. So envious that some of them girls went to Tioman.. We took a lot of photos! (Or rather, I took a lot of photos with them. Took individual photos with each and everyone of them. Haha. Shall not sign on the pictures lest the people sell them away at high prices!! =P) Went to walk around, some of them left, the rest of us went to Terra to have some drinks and chatted. PS was teaching me stuff about the waitressing job at Orchard Plaza.. Thanks a lot girl! Will do the copying stuff tomorrow.. Too tired tonight! Went home after that.. Just after I entered my estate through my small gate, Wilson called! Whee.. Always nice to hear from him. So he popped over to see me for a while.. Talk talk talk.. Tired me with aching sore feets! So we went home, before he misses his last bus too. I'm a really happy girl today! Haven't made myself so exhausted from having too much fun for a long time. Ahahaha. Quite broke though, but I think it's quite worth it. Hope I will get my pay by this week, so I can go eat Jap curry and hopefully cheesecake with Jean and Xueli this coming sat! Gotta sleep soon, or else I wouldn't be able to wake up early to meet Wilson tomorrow.. Or today. Haha. Nights folks!

(currently listening to Your Heart Will Lead You Home by Kenny Loggins. In love with that song for ages already!)

I woke up at almost noon today.. Haha.. That's because I slept late

last night, or rather, this morning. Haha. Chatted with Jean till like

2 plus in the morning, before I decided to turn in.. Lolx. Anyway, my

mum dragged out of my bed this afternoon to ask me to go down for

health screening.. Sigh. Disturb my sleep. There's this NKF people at

my function room, holding a health check-up for only $5. Did a number

of tests.. Eye test, Body Mass Index, Waist Hip Ratio, Body Fat

Analysis, Blood Pressure, Urinalysis, Random Blood Total Cholesterol,

Random Blood Glucose.





The first checkpoint is Body Mass Index. I'm in the normal range! Haha.

I realised that I lost 3kg. At the wrong places though. =p I'm 1cm

taller, which is weird.. Haha.. The next one would be.. Blood test.

-shivers- I'm not that scared of needle poking in my arms I guess.. But

I'm quite afraid of the needle poking at my finger. Not really needle

la. Just a poke at my finger. Quite scary though, because my past

experiences tell me that poking at fingers hurt more than arms. I think

because my fingers are more sensitive.. Anyway, my cholesterol and

glucose levels are normal.. Then I had my urinalysis. My first time

doing such a test. So embarrassing ok.. I went to collect my urine, and

the nurse told me they don't need so much.. Just a little will do.

=X  I don't know la.. Obviously.. I thought they might need a lot,

because I never knew how the urinalysis is done.. Ok never mind about

that. Test results were out, showed that I had a slight bit of proteins

in my blood.. Gasp. Ok, so maybe I should drink more water.. And then

go for another checkup in a month later.. Measured my Waist Hip Ratio

after that. I still don't understand what that is for.. I just know I'm

normal.. Haha. Took my blood pressure, and that would again be normal..

The last one is Body Fat Analysis.. I was given this gadget, asked to

grip on the two sides of the gadget, stand up and lift my hands up

horizontally before me.. I don't know how it works, but that sure was

quite interesting.. Hehe.. Body fat analysis: 25.3%, which the woman

said is normal.. Haha.. So be it lor..





Met up with Sinsiu after she collected her prize for College Day.. We

had a lot of catching up to do.. Chatted over food at 85 market. Oh

man, I miss the food there. Haha. Glad to see her again today, talked a

lot about my future uni.. Hee. I'm quite excited about going overseas!





Anyway, here're some photos I took during the past week.





Yeah it says "Danger-Keep Out!" I noticed the barriers, and was

thinking why do they put them there, making it inconvenient for people

to press the button. I pressed it anyway, then took a step back. O.O!!

Ok, so I saw the sign.. No wonder they put the barriers there....






This is a description of a toy Wilson spotted when we were walking around in Toys-R-Us..






The

picture of The Toy.. Yeah. How alive does it look man. Felt like rubber

that has been crafted into shape of a whale. Pengz. Who on earth came

up with such a weird toy?!


This

is Wilson before he had his haircut.. Haha. He reminds me of this

Japanese actor in Beach Boys.. He looked like he just woke up not long

ago too.. Haha.








This is Wilson too, after his haircut. Haha.. The chao ah beng face.

Lolx. I suggested that he could cut the army boy hairstyle. And he

really did!! Just that not as short..





Gotta turn in soon.. Big Walk tomorrow! Meeting Cherie at like 630am in

the morning.. Having class dinner with 2203 in the evening.. Looking

forward to tomorrow! Oh by the way,  I was checking my email, and

I received this xanga subscription digest or something. It was Zuze's

blog.. So I thought I might at well just add it on my list. Haha.

Nights folks..

Was just thinking about what this friend of mine told me the other day.. Quite a some time ago, really.. But I still remember because somehow when we talked, we'll just come back to this topic. About my parents. I am not going to go into details to tell you people what has been going on in my family.. All I can say is that things just get bad from worse, and I think it is quite irreversible now.. I'd probably lose a dad, but that isn't going to stop me from doing what I want, or hinder me from fulfiling my dreams. I told this friend about my studying overseas recently, and she popped the same question again - "Are you trying to escape again?"

I have not yet given her an answer, because I don't know what to think. I just decide on what my heart wants to do. Sometimes I do things that I myself cannot explain, and I can think about my actions for days and days, but not coming up with an answer. I've been asked that question many times.. So much so that I started to believe that I am really running away from whatever is happening at home. Or if you even call that home. While I was showering just now, the question popped back in my head again. Think it was partly because I have more or less decided on University of Adelaide, and somehow linked to that question again. (I just realised I do a lot of things in the toilet.. Dabian, pee, shower, brush teeth, wash face, sing aloud, reflecting, thinking, admiring myself in the mirror..)

No, I don't think I am really running away from anything. If I'm really running away from the problems at home, I think it's not worth it to leave all my friends and my loved ones who care for me here just for the sake of running away. I need peace, don't I? Ok, Tohjin'll correct me and say, I WANT peace. Yes. I want peace. I want to keep myself happy. Is that wrong, really? I gain experience, learn to be independent, get to know more friends overseas, become a stronger, happier and a more contented person hopefully. That sounds good right? Ok, so probably there are other things to take note as well, like spending a thousand million wads of notes just to "gain experience, learn to be independent, etc..", going astray when I'm not supervised by er.. the adults, not studying hard enough, yada yada. Then again, why think about the negative side of things? What keeps me happy will give me the power to bring me through things isn't it? Even though I'll not be on the same piece of land as my friends, I'm sure they will still remember me, they will still pray for me no matter what..

Ok I've digressed quite a lot.. A bit long-winded.. Sorry.. The main thing I want to say is, I don't think I'm running away from anything.. It depends on what perspective you see things from. To you people, I may be running from my problems (or actually, not exactly my problems, but I'm involved somehow).. But to me, I don't see any point trying to be stubborn about it and hang on to my problems. Why make myself feel awry and terrible all the time? It feels good to hang out with friends, laugh to my heart's content, just keeping myself happy. That keeps me alive, keeps me going. Cast my burdens unto my Lord, isn't it? Or have I misinterpreted?

Questions, questions, questions! I'll never have answer to all of them, but I guess some things are better to be left unanswered! I don't know why I'm talking about such profound stuff today.. Haha.. I just got this very jing1 tian1 dong4 di4 news from Cherie.. But I guess I'll let her do the announcing herself.. Haha.. OMG Ting has some big news too.. What's the world coming to!! So many big news! Can't take it! AH!!! -spins around in a melodramatic way-

Ok enough of those. MUST TELL YOU PEOPLE ABOUT THE SMELL TECHNOLOGY!!! What happened is, Jean and I were chatting.. Talking about cheesecake.. Haha.. Somehow, we ended up talking about me in adelaide.. A bit sad, because we cannot meet for cake outings! So I think I said something like, it's ok because we can still tempt each other by telling each other about the cakes we ate.. Lolx. I can't remember if it was me or her, came up with the smell technology! So we were saying, that if there's such a technology, we would send the cheesecake smell over to each other! Then we talked about sending other food smell too, just to tempt each other. Of course not forgetting to send the dabian smell!! Haha.. Really, if there's such a technology, I think I'd get sabo-ed everyday, getting dabian smell every 5 minutes. =P

Been laughing like hell just now, because of Jean and Xueli! They make such great entertainers. Hahaha.. I bet the energy I used to laugh is enough to warm a cup of coffee.. Ahhhhh... Happy day today.. Very happy.. For no reason really.. I'm glad that everything went well today!

I got the job at Noodle House Ken! It was quite easy la. I mean the interview. Not much. Nothing really much to talk about.. It's just another easy-going day. Hope I'll finish my scope of work soon.. Wanna find other jobs to do! Lalala.. I wanna give tuition.. Any kids to recommend me? Sec school students would be good too.. I specialise in Math! Haha.. Ok maybe I should sleep soon.. After playing neopets for a while. Whee.. Good night people..

I'm a happy woman!






Because I just came back from supper with Wilson just now. Lalala.

I just got back from work.. There's nothing to blog much these days, because all I've been busy with is just working and sleeping.. Just like my days in TJ, without the stress probably.. My working life is quite a breeze, because like most people said, data entry (my job) is quite a no-brainer job.. But I'm quite proud of myself, nevertheless, because I've completed quite a lot within just 5 days of work! -applause- Thanks to all the dudes who entertained me online while I was slogging away!

Hm.. What should I talk about? Oh.. Did I mention that I watched Kingdom of Heaven on Monday night? Ok, apparently not huh. I watched it with Wilson at Princess. Haha. Yeah, I know that's a bad place to watch. But what to do? I'm broke, but I still wanna watch movies! So we ended up there. Haha. Hilarious, it seems, because the sound got cut off quite a few times. Really lousy theatre, Princess. Don't watch movies at Princess if you can afford it!

I had a really morbid nightmare last night. Spooky, morbid, scary, gloomy.. (Limited vocabulary, sorry) In the dream, quite a number of people died.. My grandma, my aunt, my jiejie and Kenneth Lay respectively.. I'm sorry that I dreamt such a dream, but it was of no ill-intention on my part ok.. Not like trying to curse anyone or what.. Quite weird, because I really don't know how Kenneth Lay appeared in my dreams.. I thought people only dream of what they think of during the day? Anyway, it was quite freaky.. The surroundings in the dream looked just like a heavy thunderstorm was about to begin. Well, of course it never rained la.. It's just supposed to look gloomy and scary.. I think it's really horrible to witness someone passing away.. How their life is slowly sucked out of them.. Breathing slower.. Eyes gradually closing.. Seeing them breathe their last breathe.. It probably sounds just like what we normally see on tv.. But no, it's different.. Because on tv, you know it's not real.. You don't witness it personally.. I know that in dreams, it's not real too.. But it's different in dreams.. That's because I wouldn't really know that I am dreaming, until I wake up. Also, the dream is too vivid. Too real. Like I could touch the people there.. I, myself, in the situation itself. 4 deaths to witness in such a short dream. At the end of the dream, I dreamt about this bat eating up 2 fruits.. I don't know why that part came in, but in that dream I supposed the bat is somehow linked to the deaths of those people.. Eurgh. Vampire bats. Yuck. I hate vampires.

Ok, something less morbid. I'm going for job interview at Noodle House Ken tomorrow after work! Working hours: 6pm - 2am. Yes, not kidding. $7/hr. Gotta take cab home everyday after work, but it's ok, because PS said I will get to claim $$ for transport! And yea, that's the place that PS is working at now. Ok, not really now. She's at Tioman having fun currently. Haha. Lucky girl. Hope I'll get to work there, and get some other part time job too! This is so that I wouldn't while my time away during the day. Gonna work hard for my overseas studying! Whee~!

Back to playing neopets.. Haha..

Been working hard lately.. Been tired of the terrible events that happened.. But nevertheless, I'm glad that I've got somebody I can lean on when my world crashes down.. Things will get better, I believe.. I just have to work hard for now! I hope the people around me wouldn't mind me being a poor bloke (ok I think bloke refers to men.. But who cares) and not being able to afford eating out with you people at expensive restaurants and what not.. Pardon me if I cannot watch movies or concerts with you people.. Yada yada.. I'm tired.. Very tired.. Just hope I'll finally get a good night's sleep tonight..

I just got home an hour ago.. Oops. Haha. It was raining super heavily,

and thanks darling for sending me home! Anyway, after I had my bath, I

realised something. I wrapped the plaster around the wrong area of my

little toe on my left foot! How stupid can I get?! No wonder my toe

hurts so much today!! Ok what happened is, I bought new black shoes

yesterday, and I guess my feet are not used to the shoes yet.. With all

the walking around, not surprising that my feet hurt. It was not as bad

as I expected, because I expected more blisters. Only one popped up.

That fateful one on my toe. I wrapped plaster around it, but alas!! I

was not looking at the blister carefully, and I ended up wrapping the

part just below my blister! =( Went out to return PS her camera today,

and had dinner with Wilson after that. Walked quite a bit, hurts alot!!

So now I know why. (Btw, Jean, I had tiramisu cake from Coffee Bean for

dinner today. Muahahaha.)





Okok lemme blog about yesterday. I don't really know how to blog about

it. Haha. I can only keep re-playing it in my mind and smile (or cry)

to myself, thinking of all those wonderful memories, those funny

experiences during our practices. I LOVE TJCHOIR, HEAR ME?? I'm abit

nutty now. I'm crazy over choir. LOVE TJCHOIR TO BITS!! Yes, Huijun is

right. TJCHOIR TOTALLY ROCKS! Okok. Blog blog.





Something really terrible happened in the morning, and it dragged all

the way till afternoon. It's Friday the 13th anyway, something bad just

has to happen right? Yah, the bad thing that happened is, my mary-janes

(or how-ever-you-spell-it) began on its self-disintegrating process.

The soles of that lousy shoes started to come off, even before I reach

Park Mall! Gasp. Horror, really, because the concert is like in the

evening, and with feet of my size I'll have problems hunting for a new

pair of black shoes! I just prayed that my shoes would last till

evening. But I guess prayers don't work on Friday the 13ths. I got to

the office, did my work, was a little restless so I kept shifting my

feet. Wrong move. Yes. Why did I even move? That action catalysed the

process of disintegration. When I found out what happened to my shoes

(the soles came off from both left and right shoe, and the shoes

started peeling like there were a zillion microscopic decomposers

feeding away on my shoes. Sigh.), I piak my face and screamed in an

almost-scream-out-loud-manner (means screamed but at the.. mezzo piano

volume) "OMG!!" If people knew how my workplace is like, they would

know that a mezzo piano volume is still very very very audible. Yes.

Even the head of dept in her office looked in my direction. How

embarrassing can I get? My colleagues looked at my shoes and... Yes

you're right again, laughed at me. Or my shoes. Whatever la.





So I met Huijun for lunch, and then shopped around PS for a new pair of

black shoes so I could discard that

disintegrating-but-I-tell-people-that's-part-of-design-and-still-nobody-would-believe

pair of shoes. After much hunting and embarrassment, YES!!! I FOUND A

PAIR!! It's quite cute, really. A bit kiddy, girly, whatever, but I

think it's nice. The price a little steep, but what to do?? I bought it

at near to $40. Wore it on the spot, threw a disgusted glance at the

old pair of mary-janes which failed me terribly, and passed it to the

shop assistant who offered to discard it for me. Oh, did I say I had

lunch at Yoshinoya? Met Davina and her boyfriend there.. Going to see

her again if she turns up for class dinner on Vesak Day! Ok let's move

on to the next part of the day..





Huijun and I left for Newton, met up with the rest to go to ACS Barker

together. Got there, practice, everyone feeling jittery, excited and

all that.. Had dinner (just a quick few bites haha).. Met PS to borrow

her camera.. Took a few photos with Deb Kal and Xueli before concert

starts. TJCHOIR IS GREAT I TELL YA. I'm so in love with their

Bin-nam-ma.. Haha. Intermission, then it is the alumni's turn to

perform. Friday the 13th!! *evil-sounding music* Enyuan walked in the

wrong way.... Haha. Anyway, people said the songs we sang were very

nice! Hehe. I'm so proud of us seniors for being able to pull it off.

Will miss you guys alot alot. Hm.. After our item, there's the musical

part that our juniors presented to the audience. I must say, remarkable

improvement within a few days' time! There're just so many reasons for

me to be proud of  TJChoir. Hehe.





ENCORE!!! Yada yada, concert ended. I insisted that we take photos..

I'm glad we did! Not everyone is in the photo though.. Lemem see.. For

the performers, Jianing, Amanda, Winnie, Bee Tin, Xueli and Zhangyi

were missing! Or maybe they are cut off from the sides.. Quite sad.. If

only we moved back a little..








This picture below is just to show how sleepy I always look when I take

photos.. Grr. Anyway, from left to right: Leonie, me, Huijun!






This is my da laopo.. Muackz.



MS

THAM!! I will always remember her for.. Everything. Love her lots too!

(I remember the people were trying to get her autograph while I was

trying to drag her away for the photo.. Hahaha..)






From left to right: Xueli, me, Chung-ge, Huijun, Wee. I quite like this

shot.. Pity Mr Cheng left so fast, or I could have taken a photo with

him too.. Ok people.. Stop scrutinising at Chung's balding

head...........



AHSIANS still rock no matter what. Sorry if Kengfoo and me look a little scandalous. Bad photography, bad photography!






This is a super funny, and maybe scary photo. Don't you think Shaowei looks like a ghost with his face white as shit

sheet? Shall introduce the people again, in a different light. From

left to right: President of TJChoir from 2002-2003 (Huijun), President

of TJChoir from 2003-2004 (Xueli), President of TJChoir from 2004-2005

(Shaowei), TJChoir Teacher-In-Charge for many many years (Chung-ge).

Explains why he is balding.





Yup so I'm done with blogging about my exciting Friday the 13th! Many

other photos that I took are not up here of course. I always look

half-shut-eyed. They're for my own perusal anyway. Those people who

want the other photos that I took that are not on my blog, just let me

know and I will send them to you on msn!





Shall blog about today tomorrow. Haha. Sleep tight dudes..

TJCHOIR ROCKS. I mean it! Hehe. I'm soooo proud of them! Muackz. Shall blog more tomorrow. Super super tired now. Took alot of photos! But I look terrible in all of them with the sleeping eyes and wrinkled face and unkempt hair. Doesn't matter la. It's the other people that I wanna remember, not myself. Haha. Will put some of the photos up tomorrow! My feet feels really sore now. Gotta paste plaster all over them. Haha. And thanks Wilson for coming.. Lol. Ok I shall thank him in person la because he never reads blogs.. Haha. Good night people! I LOVE TJCHOIR!!!!

I got home at 8pm! Was feeling so hungry and tired. My back was aching again, for no reason lor. Okok, must quickly blog about my FIRST DAY OF WORK!

Continue from my first post in the morning...

I was on the train, still feeling nervous.. Was quite distracted.. And when I got back to Earth, I realised I was surrounded by a bunch of people who all happened to be reading books.. Haha.. That was one thing that amused me and made me less nervous.. Lol and so I called my area "The Reading Corner". My work starts at 10am, so at 9plus I was already on my way there. I was thinking, "Wah my goodness! So late already still got SOOO many people go work!" Yah, was still a little squeezy on the train..

What did I do the moment I stepped into Park Mall? I went to look for toilets. Haha. Laosai-ed again lor. Terrible. I felt quite hungry after that.. Luckily I brought my breakfast there.. Haha. But, I didn't really had lunch till like 2pm.. Oh, I was early for work.. A bit la.. When a lot of people weren't around yet. Anyway, the company I am working for is Nu Skin Enterprises.. I was given a rough idea of what my job will be like.. Jennifer is the name of the Assistant HR Manager.. She did a bit of the work to show me what I am expected to do.. Then she showed me around our department a little.. Haha. My goodness.. I'm just a few metres away from the president and the (I think it is) HR Department Head..

So yah, I took over the work from her.. Got a table and a computer to myself.. Haha. Fun. Can go on MSN.. But I didn't wanna laze around before I finish my work.. I think I am too fast, because Jennifer told me not to be so gan jiong, keep asking me to slow down.. Haha.. I wanted to like complete most of the work before I let myself go for lunch.. Even the HR Dept Head came over to ask me not to overwork myself! The people are quite nice I think.. Quite a laugh-y bunch. So that helps to soothe my nerves a bit. Lol. Lunch was the bread that I meant to have for breakfast.. I was still hungry after that, so I went down to the basement to look around and see what food they have in Park Mall.. A lot of furniture shops.. Very few food places.. I chanced upon Han's, and went in to take a look.. And yes, there it is, the chicken pie that I have been craving for, lying there waiting for me to buy it! I was really happy, eating like nobody's business. Haha. I thank God for putting the chicken pie there! Jean said, Han's will sell chicken pies whether God rewards me or not.. Haha. Ok lor. So I thank God for putting Han's there! Especially when there are so few places to dine in, it's quite a miracle to have Han's at Park Mall!

Wonderful lunch.. Lalala.. Went back to work.. Finished all my work so fast that Jennifer didn't have anything to let me do.. So I did this little catalogue to keep record of the course no.s for her.. That way, it will be easier to keep record of what no. we are at already.. Went on MSN and chat with Cherie, Jean and Wilson for a while.. Did a bit more work.. Then knock off!!! By then I was already feeling super hungry.. Got home at 8pm for dinner.. And here I am now!

I think I didn't announce that there will be a TJCHOIR CONCERT tomorrow at ACS Barker at 8pm right? Or maybe I did. I don't know, I forgot! So terrible. How can I forget to announce when I'm actually singing tomorrow? Yes, the P.O.C.S. & friends alumni people are singing tomorrow, just a few songs. I shall just announce again..

TJCHOIR CONCERT
13th May 2005
Friday
8pm
ACS Barker
Ticket priced at $10

People please come ok! Want details, just message me! I don't mind getting flowers.. Hehe. I'm gonna take a lot of photos tomorrow!! Wanna keep those wonderful memories with me when I go aust study.. =) Then I will think of the great times I had with my friends, and say, "Nostalgic yi xia!" (Courtesy of Jean Teo. Haha.) Anyway, must thank Auntie Vincent for being so enthusiastic about lending me his camera! Hope he will pass his exam tomorrow with flying colours.. Wanna thank Jean too, for being so willing in lending me her camera too.. But because PuiSze is going for the concert tomorrow, she will be bringing her camera anyway! So save the hassle for Vincent and Jean.. Thanks a lot anyway! Great to know that so many people are so willing to help me! *Touched!!* Of course, must thank PS for being the final camera-lender! And for coming to the concert as well! Hehe.

I know that there will be a 2203 class dinner coming up soon too.. Hope most of the classmates can make it, so we can take even more pictures! If possible, I want to take photos with every individual friend of mine.. Haha.. Vincent said he boycotts class dinners, but this time for my sake, he shall go!! Aw... So sweet! Haha.. And that CS.. Just for once, he'd better smile when I take photos with him.. OR ELSE... I won't let him go home. Haha. Hope Clare will be able to turn up too.. Haven't seen her for a long time.. AND I MUST TAKE PHOTOS WITH HER + PS + MC! Maybe I should make a list of people that I wanna take photos with.. Haha.. That's why you see, there's a "take many photos for keepsake" under my "shadowy wishes" column.. Haha. Partly why I wanna get a digicam la. I don't mind if you guys gimme angbaos (with money inside of course) to fund for my digicam.. Hehe. *hint hint*

Shall make a photo-taking list soon! If it's not too long, I shall put it up on the blog. Hehe. Time to go play neopets for a while and maybe play Literati with Jean again! Haha. Jean's been my playmate nowadays. =D Glad to have her around!!

Oh btw, P.O.C.S & friends is just a joke. Haha. Probably only Huijun and Ms Tham understands. I miss Ms Tham! -makes a mental note- Must take photo with her tomorrow..

One short post before I leave to work! I just laosai-ed like nobody's business. Guess I'm quite a nervous wreck now.. -bites fingers- I didn't really feel nervous, until I started laosai-ing.. Then I know that actually I am feeling nervous.. Lol. Ok. Not a very good start. Haha. Sigh. I got chicken pie craving sia. But lunch today for me, will be bread. =( Anyway, wish me all the best! Hope I don't fall asleep at work or something. Haha.

Today is probably the happiest day for the past few weeks! =D 2 things happened that made me a very very happy lady today. Hehe.

Thing no. 1:
I GOT A JOB!! CAN ANYONE BELIEVE IT??? WHEE~ Hee hee. I'm super super happy. =D THANKS TO PEISHIN WHO GOT ME THE JOB! Man I love you soooooooo much! Muackz! THANKS A ZILLION! What happened is, Shin's job agency got her a one week job.. To cut things short, she recommended me the job! I'm so touched!! And HAPPY!! So yup, because they need people urgently, I'm to start work tomorrow. The pay is not like sky-high, but who cares? I've got work to do! Never in my whole life have I felt so happy when I get work to do. Haha. The agency told me, that the company may extend my working period there! The pay is quite low, but she told me it should be negotiable. I mean, that's if I intend to work till end of the year. Anyway, the $9/hr job agency didn't call me back for 2nd interview. Grrr. If this company wants me to work for long, I shall not bother about that stupid starhub company anymore. Oh, I forgot to say this $6/hr job is data entry! At least this is something I would prefer to do, compared to customer service at starhub. Bleah. SO... I'll be at Dhoby Ghaut working tomorrow! Anyone who wants to treat me to lunch are welcomed to look for me.. Hehe..

Thing no. 2:
University of Adelaide FINALLY replied me! Why am I so elated? That's because I've been waiting for them to give me the offer.. Been waiting for sooooo many weeks, and finally they gave me the offer! By DHL some more leh. Haha. Zai hor? Adelaide is a good place to study in because cost of living is cheap and so are the tuition fees.. Hehe. The booklet the school sent me mentioned about "4 distinct seasons". YAY!!! I'll be looking forward to winter. Hehehehe.

Ok that's about it.. Jean complained that my blog entries too long! Haha. =X So I shall be less loso today.. I need to sleep soon to get ready for my first day at work tomorrow! =D Will blog more tomorrow about my first day at work. Oh forgot to say, thanks Jo(hanes) for reading my blog! Haha. Do tag next time ok. Like to say I should stop working immediately and go cycling. =P Hahaha. Whee~ Working tomorrow! Stay tuned..

Oops, how can I forget? Thanks to all who tagged.. Namely Crie, Cmyk, Huijun and Apple!

Crie: I get the hint girl, I shall tag you too! Haha..
Cmyk: Yes, hopefully you come out in time for concert! I'd definitely have fun playing the Sims.. And perhaps you can fulfil my tiramisu dream!
Huijun: Yes yes, thank you for your tag too. I welcome more tags from ya!
Apple: Thanks for wishing me Happy Mother's Day.. Lol.. You're the only one who did that. Haha.. Thanks for the "action"! Hehe.

Getting ready for my beauty sleep...

I'm super tired now.. Haha.. But I shall blog a bit anyway. See that I've got a new wishlist? (At the side titled shadowy wishes. hehe) Yup since Cherie already made hers, I might as well come up with one for my birthday, so people can start saving up and buy me the stuff on the wishlist.. Hehe. But yah, if you guys getting any of those I've stated there, must tell me ok! That's very important, because I don't wanna end up getting 2 iBooks.. Muahahaha.. Ok, some of those stated are probably almost impossible to achieve.. Yah.. It's just a wishlist ain't it? Nobody said I cannot wish for what I want. =p

A lot of things happened lately, that made me really stressed and upset. Did I mention that in my previous posts? Haha. Whatever la, I cannot really remember. No harm groaning about it again. Bear with me for a while yeah? Where was I? Stressed and upset. Yes, about a lot of things, which I don't think I have that much energy to list them all out now and elaborate them. What I am thankful for is, I have many people to cheer me up when I am feeling moody and sorts. Here's some people I wanna say thanks to for cheering me up the past 2 days..

Thanks to: Bazang..
Although it was just a small chat on MSN yesterday, I felt less agitated after talking to her. Talked about jobs, universities.. Yes, reminded me of what stress I am under now, but somehow she always seems to give me this reassuring feeling that makes me feel more settled. She probably doesn't read my blog, and probably didn't know that she made my day (or night) better, but nonetheless, here's a big THANKS to her!

Thanks to: Zuze..
He's super, super, SUPER crappy. Haha. I can never forget the rating system he came up with for the choral competition. Lolx. Yesterday, I was telling him that TJChoir got Gold for SYF.. I told him about the new thing now, which is the Gold with Honours, and that the finals have been scraped. He laughed when he heard it! Yes, I agree. Quite bullshit. Then he said the next round, he would come up with Gold with a bit of Platinum plus honours.. Lolx. And the whole series started.. Gold with honours, gold platinum, gold platinum with honours, platinum gold, platinum gold with honours, platinum, platinum with honours.. There are the ones with masters too.. But forget it la.. Haha.. He said super funny stuff like bronze are for those schools who submit their name late, and Certificate of Participation are for those schools with no choir!! I really laugh till I pengz. I mean, in just a few short minutes and he can come up with such funny crap, can you imagine what things he can say to make me pengz like hell during the time when we chat? Haha. Yes, too long a section for Zuze le. Another really big THANKS to Zuze!

Thanks to: Peishin..
Her role came into play during our short gathering at my house swimming pool.. Cherie and I were bobbing around in the pool, and talking loads and loads of crap!! I laughed until I kept coughing.. Haha.. I'm glad to have her around, because even though she doesn't crap along with us (because that is just not her forte =p), her presence is very comforting! Yes, I was in a bad mood because of some stupid things that happened regarding my cousin. But seeing her made me feel a lot better! She's a really good listener, really!!! I may not see her often, but I know that no matter what happens she will always be there for me. Cheers to my pretty sister! Another big THANKS to her!!

Thanks to: Ting..
She didn't join us for swimming today, but that doesn't mean there's nothing I have to thank her about. She did me a great deal of help! I recently applied for a job, which she by the way did before.. Haha. She gave me a lot of mental preparation, because after all, such a good pay comes with a certain er.. price. Stress, having to face unreasonable and nasty customers and sorts. I'm glad she told me.. Though I still went ahead with it for the job interview, at least I am much more prepared. And not like when I start work and find out how horrible it is and start sulking. It's a contractual position, so at least now I know beforehand how it is, things will turn out better for me with the right mentality. So, she will probably say that is nothing much on her part.. But she is wrong! That has been a great help! I got quite stressed about it, upon hearing how stressful it can get. But she is still very supportive anyway. And that is just what I need! Yes, a big THANKS to you too! For being such a supportive sister!

Thanks to: Cherie..
To much to say about this crazy fella who happens to be just a couple of hours older than me. Haha. Ok, yes. Speak for myself eh. Anyway, I'm always grateful for having her around.. Someone whom I can turn to for advice, which is indeed very rare because most people would just agree with me and not tell me others' perspective of certain things.. I am glad to have her around to listen to my woes and calm me down when I'm in a rage.. Haha.. Ok probably only she will understand what I am talking about.. That's what twins are like I guess.. Hehe.. Sorry if Xueli feels left out.. Haha.. =p So, anyway, Cherie came to swim today! Her laugh is super contagious. BEWARE, people! If you don't want to laugh until you pengz and drown in the water while swimming, refrain from swimming with her! Unless you can control yourself well like I can. Ok I almost drowned too. =P Nevertheless I'm happy to have her around today. With such a contagious laughter, she makes all my troubles go away!! So, a big THANKS to this beautiful-but-never-ever-believes-that-she-is-beautiful sister!!

Thanks to: Wilson..
Give him some credits here.. He sure deserves the thanks for staying up till 2am just to sing me songs to cheer me up.. Haha.. Well, like I said, I was stressed and upset over some things.. Yesterday I was in quite a foul mood, felt like everything was going wrong for me.. I hid in my room and cried and bawled like nobody's business.. Haha.. (Oh just a sidenote, I realised the Sims never cry.....) Ok fine I know I'm a wimp.. But no harm releasing stress in form of salted water drops once in a while.. I don't know why, but I requested for him to sing me a song.. Haha. So yah.. He ended up singing me many songs, just so that I feel a lot better and can sleep better.. I was quite touched.. That was more than I asked for, although the singing was.. Haha.. Quite jialat for some songs.. Then again, look at the songs he picked. All pitched at such high range. Lol. I burst out laughing when he was singing First Love. Ok very bad of me.. But I do appreciate what he has done for me. Hehe. Such a sweetie! A thousand million zillion big THANKS to him!!!

Last but not least..

Thanks to: God, of course.
Ok, I know I haven't been very religious lately.. Praying at home probably isn't enough, but I'm not exactly in the state to go to church and make casual talk with people.. I'm sorry I say things like that, because I am not close to people in my church, and I don't have the mood to make small talk when I have problems on my mind.. So sorry Lord.. But I wanna thank You for being forgiving.. Thank You for giving me problems too.. Because I know the problems are here to help me grow stronger and.. hopefully wiser. Haha. I admit, I'm not a very wise person, quite a dumb-brain when I am faced with problems.. Thank You for watching over me.. Too many things to thank for.. Not forgetting to thank You for bringing those precious friends to me too.. Thank You for bringing me the love of my life.. Another infinite amount of THANKS to YOU!

Hm.. Been busy playing the Sims for the past few days! Haha.. And

finally the couple has a baby!! The screen said "Congrats! You have a

baby boy!" Or I guess it is something like that. Keyword: Boy. So I

named it Klaus Tree because I was quite obsessed

into Klaus Baudelaire from Lemony Snicket's A Series Of Unfortunate

Events. Darn. After I clicked "ok", I realised I should have just named

it Christmas Tree!!! That'll be even better right? Haha. Since I'm so

crazy about Christmas anyway. But... I'm not allowed to rename the

baby.. Aw.......





So that's what I've been doing.. Playing the Sims.. Talking to Jean

about the Sims.. And now she is in Bangkok shopping like crazy! Ok

Jean, I shall not eat too much.. I promise! I will wait till next month

before I pamper myself with Tiramisu cake from Coffee Bean.. Or if

anyone is nice enough to give me a treat.. I don't mind.. Haha..





Ok.. So let me blog about what happened today.. Or should I say

yesterday? Haha. I slept late the night before, as usual.. Got woken up

by the first call in the morning.. And that will be Zhangyi asking me

if Chinru's house got music stand! Pengz. So yah, Chinru's house has a

music stand because she learns cello! Slacked through my afternoon,

wanted to nap a little while waiting for lunch, got woken up by another

call again. And that will again, be Zhangyi asking if I wanna have

lunch. Today is really not a good day to sleep. So anyway, there was

alumni practice again! Happy! Huijun gave me the Howl's CD that she

burned.. Although there's only 10 songs in it, I'm still very gan

dong!! Thanks Huijun!!!!!! Today's practice went smoothly. I'm quite

glad with that.. =) Hope things will turn out fine on concert day too!

So after the practice, Huijun and I went to City Hall to shop for black

pants because we need it for concert.. Well actually she planned to

meet Louis for dinner there, and I planned to meet Wilson for dinner at

Paya Lebar.. But since I need to buy black pants, I changed meeting

place to City Hall too. So while Huijun and I were shopping, Louis and

Wilson were having meeting with some other people in school.. They are

part of this Radio Heatwave comm in school.. So yah, they came together

to meet us. Lol. Quite funny. Anyway, Huijun and I walked around

Raffles Shopping Centre, and she chanced upon a black pants in Esprit!

Yes, Esprit stuff are expensive, but the black pants was on a 30%

discount, and anyway the black pants would come in handy for more

performances and all that! So she spent almost $50 on it, and I think

it is worth it! Especially when it looks good on her, why not!





My fateful black pants came while we were browsing through this shop

called Space located in CityLink.. I saw the pants and I was like "OMG

the pants is beautiful!" A little glimmering, nice cut, and fits me

quite well! I wanted the larger size, but since I always look sloppy

and ah-soh in big pants, OK, I've decided on the more fitting one. It

costs me almost $50 too! But I'm glad I found it. Definitely good,

because I'll get to wear it for performance on Friday, wear it to work

when I start work, wear it for any occasion I want! It's so pretty, I

wouldn't mind wearing it often!





Well that is all that I bought.. I still have a pair of shoes to hunt

for, and I want to invest in a pair of formal slippers with no heels..

Can you imagine I cannot wear skirts because they don't match my sport

shoes and neither can I wear them with my flip flops! So yah. I have

much hunting to do.





Photos! This is the picture of the food I ate for dinner today. Look at

the plate. It almost couldn't fit into the tray! I was really quite

amused by it.. Trying not to laugh while I was eating. Wilson, Huijun

and Louis probably thought I was nuts when I stood up to take this

photo. Haha. Anyway, it was quite nice. I was really hungry then..






This!! Is to show you guys how HUMONGOUS the plate is! Ok la not very

well taken. It doesn't look like it is really very contrasting because

1. Wilson's plate is full of food while mine is not. 2. I'm a bad

photographer. Bleah.








After dinner, Louis and Huijun went to Mac for drinks, while Wilson and

I walked around to hunt for.. My black top. Ok. I didn't really wanna

drag him around because I know guys don't really enjoy following girls

around and wait for them while they are shopping for clothes. I'm

sorry! That was my first time dragging him along because I was quite

worried I cannot get the stuff ready for concert on time! So yah. I

promise I will refrain from doing that again. Hehe. See, I'm nice!





Ok, it's like past 2am now. No, not because I took a long time to

blog.. It's because just now I was doing post mortem for today (or

yesterday's) practice.. Yah. Zhangyi is like so eager to know where he

can improve. Good! Jing Shen Ke Jia!! But yah, I'm super sleepy now,

and I wanna finish blogging so that people wouldn't complain that I'm

not blogging often enough. So people, be appreciative ok. Actions speak

louder than words. Tag. I like seeing tags on my tagboard. =D

Yesterday is just another day to most people, but a very important day to most choristers.. JC Choristers to be exact.. And other people who are involved in a way or another as well.. To cut things short, yesterday was SYF competition for choral singing.. Temasek Junior College Choir got Gold! I know many of them must be really disappointed that they did not get the Gold with Honours, but it is ok! Like what Huijun said in her blog, in our hearts, we know that you guys have gotten the Gold with Honours already. Very very proud of you all! =D Really like the last song that you guys did.. Hee hee. Work hard for the upcoming concert! I'm looking forward to it!

So after that, Huijun, Wee, Deb and I left for City Hall to have lunch.. They left after lunch, so I was left alone to shop around.. Haha. Ok la.. I quite like shopping alone actually, because I can do things at my own pace!! Went to Precious Tots there, saw this cute small little bear that says Love You! I bought it for my darling.. Haha. Next stop: HMV. Was looking for Howl's soundtrack.. It's $24.95 if I'm not wrong.. Expensive, seriously. But considering that there are like 26 songs in it, it's quite worth it. Had this impulse to want to buy it! But I told myself that it's ok, Huijun is going to burn the songs for me.. Haha.. Patience!! I will get the long-awaited cd on saturday! :D

Walked on, and entered this shop in City Link called Manzanna. They sell a lot of interesting, but expensive things there. I spotted this jeans handbag there.. So pretty! Price is about $25, quite reasonable I guess.. But not really affordable for me right now.. Hope I will get my money back from my kor kor soon.. So I can pamper myself again..

Felt really bored.. Wanted to go to Suntec to shop around.. But at the thought of shopping with no money to spend, it made me very sad!! So I ended up going to the Esplanade library to do some reading, and borrowed a book for my own reference when I do my theory homework.. I was reading a book at the reading lounge in the library, and I fell asleep! So paiseh. I slept quite long I guess. Thank goodness the librarian didn't throw me out. Woke up and continued reading.. Left a while later, and ended up at the Esplanade concourse. There was this duet, playing R & B music. One sang and played harmonica, the other played guitar. I thought the songs were quite nice, so I sat down to listen. Forgot about the time, until Zhangyi's call came and brought me back to Earth. Talked and talked, then I left for City Hall MRT control to meet my darling. We took ages to decide where to eat again. Haha. Oh well. Had dinner.. Walked a little, went home..

Played The Sims till like 4am in the morning.. Explains why I got up at like 12 plus today.. Haha..

Anyway, was talking to Jean just now.. I told her that I realised something about the Sims.. They only pee and bathe, but they don't dabian!!! Hm. Weird right. So Jean said, actually they do. She said that when we make them empty their bladders, sometimes the guy do it standing up, sometimes he does it sitting down. When they do it sitting down, probably means they are dabian-ing also. Haha. Yeah. She's quite observant! So.. Ok.. Since both Jean and Wilson says that they pee and dabian at the same time.. Then it shall be that way lor.......

Hm! Let me tell you about the Sims family I created.. Hahahaha.. Two of them. One is a guy, the other is a lady. Their family name is Tree. Guy's name is Willow Tree, lady's name is Lemon Tree. Hahahaha.. Wanted something like angsana or frangipani, but it sounds stupid la. Haha. So anyway, I tried out the cheatcode, and made them very rich. Haha. That's fun. They moved into the vacant mansion, bought a lot of expensive stuff with all the money they had. Fun! So yup, at first, I thought it would be quite boring to be jobless, so I let Willow go out to work. Then because on some days I let him skip work, and he got sacked. Haha..

I made them increase their skills.. Willow has already max his cooking skills, mechanical skills, charisma, creativity and logic. Lemon max her cooking, mechanical, creativity, body and logic. Haha. Willow is now working on his body, does workouts often. Lemon is now practising speech in front of the mirror to increase her charisma. Haha. So, after they've completed the goals, I'll.. Let them have a baby! Hee hee. Probably let them have another baby if the first child grows up well. Hehe. Ok. Back to playing!

Been busy researching which uni I should accept.. Thinking a lot, considering a lot, coming up with many different back up plans.. But I still haven't solve the very first issue: which uni. WHICH ONE!! -yanks hair- Yes, continue to pray about it. But will God answer my prayers? Cos I haven't been a good girl, haven't been to church lately.. Guess I'm getting quite anti-social.. Don't know why, I don't really quite like mixing with the the youth ministry except for some people.. Maybe I'm just pms-ing. Ok enough of the those. My head feels heavy. Looks like getting a headache is imminent.

Thursday was another day at Woodlands Primary. We did this activity that I found really interesting. The activity was meant to teach the kids how to react when parents or authorities have disagreement with ownself, and there's this COOL thing that they can use to remind themselves. I cannot remember what COOL stands for (I did listen! But I just cannot remember it now..) but it is something that tells them to consider why parents disagree with ownself, try to compromise with the parents, but if they don't wanna compromise with us, we shall just be obedient, and live by this COOL way. Haha. The kids were given some materials to make parachutes. The parachute is to represent the parents and authorities, while the man hanging on the parachute is to represent ownself. The idea is, parents and authorities are there to protect us. They may be naggy times, they may not be the perfect parents (like how some parachutes can be ugly), they are still there for our own safety (like how the parachute is to help us land safely whether or not it looks nice). When we have a disagreement with our parents, Jasmine (the one who organised this activity) said it is like tying knots to the strings, and when this happens, the parachute cannot open properly and we are endangering ourselves. It is really enriching to be a social worker and getting to learn such things as well. That is because for one thing, I love arguing with my parents. =p

Friday was quite a slack, but happy day. Slack because I took a break from my research (universities thing) and spent quite a lot of time sleeping. Happy because Wilson came to accompany me though he spent quite a lot of time on my comp dealing with his work. Well that's better than no company at all. Haha. Read a bit of this article in National Geographic, and the article was saying something like the ice-y part of the North Pole could well be a big warm pond dunno how many zillion years ago, and teeming with life! Ok, I don't know why such things interest me. But they do. Haha. In the evening, went for the briefing regarding the 1-day work on 2nd May with Shin. Met Wilson and his NP radio heatwave gang there, and gosh, his predecessor (the one who briefed us) is full of vulgarities like Wilson too. Haha. Wilson insisted that he is not full of vulgarities. Haha. Ok lor, if he says so.

Saturday was slightly better, but tiring. Woke up in the morning to have breakfast with my jies at Bedok Mac (the one that will always get TJ infested when it's during school days) for breakfast. Talked a lot, gave them the goodies that I got from Singapore Fashion Festival (actually is more like Wilson kop them for me..) and let them fight it out amongst themselves. Haha ok la no fights. But a lot of vouchers for them. Shin got the U2 vouchers, which I'm glad will be useful to her because she will need to get a blazer/jacket soon (TP business students need them huh). Ting and Cherie got the Fox vouchers which expires like on that day itself. So Ting and Cherie met up again in the afternoon to raid Fox shop at Tampines Mall. They sure bought a lot... As for me, after the breakfast I met up with Izzati to pass her the necklace that she will need for SYF and concert because she lost hers.. Went home, did more research and had some discussion with my mum regarding the bank loans.. In the late afternoon I went to Eunos (Xueli's place) for alumni prac.. It went quite well! I was not exactly in the best mood that day because something happened at home before I left for the practice.. I was distracted, but I promise I will try to do better the next practice! After practice, I stayed on at Xueli's house for a while, while waiting for Wilson to reach Eunos so we could have dinner there. In the meantime, Xueli dished out his Utada Hikaru's Deep River score book, Spirited Away score book, and HOWL'S MOVING MANSION score book! Had fun playing the songs, though my sight-reading really suckssssss.. Was dreaming about the beautiful pastures while playing the song. Peace-ness!! Then after running through some songs, Xueli let me mess around with his Mac comp.. Just trying out the stuff, because I was thinking of getting an iBook if I had to leave this laptop in SG for my brother to use.. Then yup, met Wilson, and we went to Bedok for dinner instead. Went to the arcade to look around, went to comic shop, went to CD shop.. Really wanted to scream at him because he asked me to watch this vampiric show on vcd that we saw in the shop. I don't like vampires la ok.. And it's at that time of the night some more! He said after I watch it I will not have a phobia of vampires anymore. But seriously, would I be that stupid to even catch a glimpse? The only vampiric show that I'm ok with is Buffy the Vampire slayer. Don't know why. Maybe it's because I'm especially afraid of Chinese Vampires. Ok, enough of those, I'll get nightmares again! Listen to Howl's theme song to soothe myself.. -daydreams again-

SUNDAY!!! And that is today! I didn't go to church, because my mum, brother and I went to my aunt's place at Bishan. We paid her a visit so we could find out more about what to do regarding my overseas studying. Her daughter, and that will be my japanese cousin, is currently studying in Perth now. So we decided to ask for some advice from her. We met my aunt at Junction 8, and went to DIN TAI FUNG!!! -beams- I've been dying to try the Xiao Long Bao, and I finally get to eat it today! I've been so poor the past weeks that I haven't been to such expensive places le.. We bought Xiao Long Bao, takeaway. Went to my aunt's place to talk about the application and had a sumptuous lunch as well. Ok, it was sumptuous to me la. Just the Xiao Long Baos were sinful enough. Hehe. She cooked some fishballs, some chicken nugget-thing, and soba! The mere mention of it is making me hungry again.. Aww.. So yup, talk talk, yak yak, helped Hiroshi with his assignment (it's about sleep. Haha) and eat some more! I borrowed Spirited Away vcd from him. HAPPINESS!!! I watched halfway the other time, and was dying to finish it! So elated that I managed to borrow it today. Went home and finally finished watching it! Yay... Then I took a short rest, watch Ice Age.. And here I am now, blogging!

Have work tomorrow, I should sleep soon! Ok maybe not.. Maybe I'll bathe first, then play a few games before I turn in.. Haha. Anyway, Happy birthday to Ting! Gosh. I look at the time now, and I actually took exactly an hour to blog! Haha. Tata..

Howl..
