this very special day (well, belated!)
haha. deardear couldn’t celebrate with me yesterday because he had a full run for dance yesterday.. but nevertheless he spent the whole day with me (except that he had to leave for dance after that..)
anyway in the morning we went to family day at khatib camp. hahah. i overslept this morning lah! sheesh. i don’t know why but it was 830am on the clock, i actually saw it as 730am! sheesh! (reminds me of the time i was in lyon and due to the time difference i actually set the wrong time! mnus-ed wrongly! but this can’t be the case since i don’t have to adjust for any time difference!)
met deardear at khatib mrt station, afterwhich he sent me to camp on his bike. went in, wanted to exchange for security pass but in the end didn’t have to, since it was family day. hahah.
basically just saw the bunks and stuff lah. i think we spent most time in the mess though. hahahah. played pool, wii, fussball (this one we played with dear’s friend, kelvin and melvin. lol. it rhymes! hahah.) lunch was nice as well. and it turns out that the two of them knew bryan tay (i knew of him cos i was in swimming last time).. and they knew his gf, who was in my primary school last time! lol. what a small small world indeed. lol.
after that we went to dear’s place.. and since he was so tired he went to take a nap while i was doing the jigsaw puzzle.. up till like 530pm (ya i just sat there and did the whole time without even going toilet! lol. really trains your patience man!) until dear’s mum gave me some durian strudel to eat. yummy!!! ritz some more! i totally love it lah!
then i went to wake dear up and we went for dinner at swensen’s at causeway point. yup i know, nothing with a big bang lah.. but i’m still thankful that dear went with me for dinner even though he was going to be late for dance. because he said that he had promised me. awww. thanks for keeping your promise dear! really appreciated it! :)
food was good! yumyum. but of course i need to cut down on my eating since i’m growing fat. :X
fat fat fat! i am turning into a LUMP OF FATS. never mind, running tomorrow since i don’t have classes till late! whee~~~
anyway dear couldnt send me back home after that and he was really apologetic and all.. but i told him it’s okay lah. cos i knew he was already late for dance.. and he’s nice enough to walk me to the interchange already lah. see? i’m so nice and understanding right? lol *self praise is no praise!*
okay, so now shall attempt to write a lousy poem.
wait wait, before that i shall post some photos first, to distract you all so that you wouldn’t realize how lousy the poem will be (i shall attempt to write in 5 mins and then go to sleep because i cannot open my eyes any more already. think i spent too much eye power with the jigsaw. lol)
yup. taken at causeway point.. okay starting on my poem now (if only my brother would stop coming into the room and talk about his pokemon stuff lah!)

the two years spent with you
was so lovely, and so meaningful.
i’m glad that you stepped into my life
it made me feel like i was taking a dive –
into a sea of happiness and love
oh surely, you must have come from above!
for you are like an angel sent down to me
to care for me, to protect me, even if it makes you as busy as a bee.
and this very day i am thankful
that i picked your name of the “FHD cup”, yes i do.
we chatted and chatted late into the night,
and soon thereafter, you became my knight –
in shining armour, no doubt
to protect me from the grey cloud.
oh i enjoyed those moments that we had
because it’s the quality time that we shared.
we would see each other almost everyday
ooh, that made me happy and gay :)
but of course, now that you’ve graduated
i am of course, no longer elated
because that would mean that i can no longer see you all the time
since that i stay at home now.. ahhh. it’s a feeling that’s as sour as lime.
but still, i’m grateful for the effort you take to meet me whenever you can,
and that, my love, is the best plan!
and of course you ought to know that even when i’m not beside you,
my heart is beating steadily and true,
because you’re in my heart every single second
and you’re the best mitang, i reckon!
.
.
.
okay sorry my dear, not exactly very good i know.. hahahaha. :(
alright, to end it off.. here’s a collage! :)
the coloured photos make up this heart shape! (if you can tell. hahah)
happy anniversary my mitang!
two years have passed, a lifetime more to go
anyway, you were asking if i could lift my leg up to my head.. eh well, better explained by pictures i guess! since i can’t see you cos you’re probably still busy with dance at the moment..

luncheon
okay. finally met up with zj to have lunch. hahah. before he flies back to canada.
so anyway he told me to msg when i was there or something.. i think i wasn’t exactly reading the message properly.. so i read it as only to msg him when i’m there (i thought he was like hanging around katong shopping centre lah!)
then when i’m there.. i called. and he was still at home -_-”
thankfully he stays nearby and said “okok i’ll drive there”
lunch was like at 3plus – 4pm. (lol, just like on monday when i met up with dear for lunch)
went to eat the chicken rice there, apparently it has changed owner. the chicken was very nice! it’s not like hard and tough, but was actually very soft and tender and juicy!
but the rice.. eew. it’s very clumpy. and it’s yellow. i think it’s butter rice or something. not nice.. thankfully the chicken made up for it..
after that we walked to his bmw (or his mum’s, rather).. and he got a summon! he forgot to put coupon AGAIN. that’s like 30 bucks down the drain.. sheesh!
happy day :D
ah. very happy today. deardear smsed me last night saying it was his off day today, asking if i wanted to go out with him :D
of course i do!
i was supposed to meet zijian for lunch (cos he’s flying back to canada this sat and i don’t think i can send him off on sat cos i’ll be having tuition).. so i postponed that lunch to tuesday and had lunch with my deardear instead today!
met him at orchard mrt control station.. he said 245pm lah! (although i said 230pm earlier).. so i totally didn’t expect him to be standing there, waiting for me!
OMG. i was so freaking apologetic (even though i reached earlier than 245pm actually).. but deardear just grabbed me very tightly in his arms! (so much so to the extent he was like choking my neck already lah! hahaha). i could tell that he was quite happy to see me!!! :):):)
ahh. haven’t seen dear² (lazy to type so long already.. hhaha) for quite a couple of days, cos he had dance.. and was so damn happy to see him lah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:D:D
anyway. had lunch at crystal jade, the xiao long bao one. dear² quite funny. he didn’t really know where to go.. then he walked to the imperial kitchen one. lol. -_-”’
i had my yummy la mian in spring onion oil (cos this is like the smallest bowl of la mian, i rather save my space in the stomach for the dishes!), xiao long bao, and hong you sth sth sth. oh shit. i know it’s no. 503 though. it’s like pork dumpling with chilli oil.. damn damn good!
ahh. no. 503 has been my favourite since sec 1. lol. when i was still studying in sc, then we would head down to the xiao long bao outlets at scotts (now it’s torn down to rebuild a new one)..
went to kino after that (another one of my favourite hangout when i was still in sc last time! hahaha. there’s the french/german section which is like quite ulu and we would study there! if the staff chased us out.. we would head to orchard library (which i only realised the other day that the library has also disappeared. sheesh)
there are just so many changes in orchard lah! i only realised two weeks ago that specialist centre is gone!! that’s why i used to go and buy cheap sports bra and john little.. those next to bodynits… cos they were so damn cheap ($9.90 only!) and appeared in like every single colour lah! damn pretty colours! lol. and gramaphone! don’t know where those shops have shifted to now.
and paragon is undergoing renovation! (i also realised this like 2 weeks ago). i think it looks quite ugly now. it used to be pretty atas looking (the time they haven’t added the new wing and increased the space yet).. then it’s only like gucci, vertu, ck, sia, etcetc. but now.. you have a lot of zha-pa-lang brands there as well. ooh. i remember spagghedies too! i love the food there :)
but of course i know about the ion! hahah. i’m not THAT suaku la okay! just that they changed the mrt exits here and there, i got quite confused :(
oh my, imagine.. i was so used to orchard last time (since sc was like a 5 min bus ride away and i had to go there to change bus everyday).. now.. i feel like a tourist in orchard man. so many new things.
oh another new thing i just found out like two weeks ago as well.. they have these new traffic-signalling people at the zebra crossings! (like at tangs–>: lucky plaza, far east –> marriott)
omg. i really do feel quite like a tourist! lol.
oh yeah anyway i digressed too much. after that we went to hong ju’s father’s funeral. dear² lighted the erm, what you call that.. joss stick? for me cos i didn’t really know the procedures. i felt quite like an idiot lah :( it’s not that i didn’t want to pay my respects.. i just need to “copy” someone to know what to do..
not going to talk much about it because it’s not exactly something very happy to talk about.. all i can say is.. take care hong ju! (not as if he reads my blog though)
after that we went back to ang mo kio interchange and dear² waited with me till my bus came.. ahhh. now i know what some girls are thinking.. “what? your bf never send you back??!!)
aiyah. please. i stay so far in the east, he stays at woodlands… and we were at amk. pointless for him to come all the way to my place then go back home right?? but i know if he didn’t take bus/train today he would have sent me back lah. but parking in town is expensive! (and i don’t want dear² to waste this sort of money also lah)
ohh. the very sweet thing dear² did was like.. when my bus was here.. then we hugged and i kissed his neck and cheek lah.. then so we said bye bye and walked away.. then dear² called me.. and i turned around then he kissed my lips :D
yummylicious.
hur! gel is siao right now! :)
hl’s birthday
it was raining lah! lousy day for sentosa! lol. but nevertheless, since it’s hl’s birthday.. must give face!! so must turn up!!! hahah.

hl and i. with hl’s present :)
this was before rasul spilled kickapoo on our cameras! :(:(:(

testing testing. to see if my camera is okay. hmm, a bit blur. lack of focus! no bokeh. omg omg omg.

ahh. better. it survived. hl’s camera didn’t really survive though. it gave her bright images, but only when she didn’t zoom out. why why why??

before hl’s face got smashed into the cake!!

busy wiping off nutella

the part without the nutella.. you know where it went to…

hl tried to take revenge.. but who laughs loudly before smashing it into the other person’s face?? then it would the other person ample time to react what…

hl, her sis, her sis’ bf. i realised your sis and her bf likes to purse their lips when taking photo. lol

the m&m “shots” hl made up drink. decolourized by kickapoo. notice the WHITE m&m. i have no idea what was it’s original colour. lol

the colour being drained out..

random peacock walking around.
played bang thereafter. wahh very lengthy game sia. hahaha. but had fun nevertheless!
okay anyway nowadays i usually upload photos at
TGIF!
oops. didn’t update yet again. haha. anyway the other day i took yet another exam on the 19th.. and i passed! yaay! now one last paper to go!!!
ehh. i seriously thought i would flunk that paper.. cos the textbook was so bloody thick, didn’t have ample time to study for it.. and because it’s so thick.. by the time i finished.. i forgot the front parts already. somemore didn’t really have the time to do mock papers.. only did part of it.. and i think because i was in a rush to get out of the house, i couldn’t think properly for the calculation questions (plus it’s like since jc i last took math! lol).. did a few more questions on my train journey there though..
then when i finished doing, i decided to check once more through thoroughly. by this time, my stomach was growling since it’s 7pm.. in the end, after checking once through i decided to hit the “finish” button.
next thing i saw??
PASSED.
phew. scared the shit out of me. my heart was racing so wildy before i clicked on the button lah!
oh well shall take a nap before mugging. wanted to run but it’s raining!! stupid stupid rain! shall wake up to run tmr morning before going for hl’s party!!!!
i looked up at the purplish sky
and heaved a loud sigh
i haven’t seen you for days
it’s like someone has set my heart ablaze
i looked at the stars above and wondered –
did you look at them too, and pondered
how much do i love you so..
that not seeing you makes me feel so low, so low.
and everytime i think of you,
i pluck a star down from the skies, that’s true..
and now the sky is empty and bare
because of all my love and care..
i’ve plucked down every star that i can see
but yet, my heart still longs for thee
when oh when can i see you again?
and rid myself of all this pain…
oh my. i wrote all these in 2 minutes. which would explain why it’s shitty i guess. i do better with prose than poems anyway :(
ah damn, i have lab tmr
:(
thinking of you always!
ah, damn. i miss you so much. so so so so freaking much.
oh well, but i’ve got to study.. you’ve got dance and have to go to nainai’s place..
ah well. no choice but to miss you badly instead.
how i wish i can get a nice tight hug from you right now…
oh well, wishful thinking. stupid me. bleahhhh.
I MISS YOU!!!
okayy. so today i had this microb lab..
then there was this demonstration.. so the TA told us.. if we had camera phones.. we could just snap all the typed-out text down.. rather than copy painstakingly..
and then there were these two guys who were trying to use the camera phone to take photo of what’s on the microscopic slide.. as seen through the eyepiece..
we thought it was impossible.. until we tried.
OMG!
you can do so after all! i’m so damn excited! cos it’s like you can capture real life info! instead of just looking at pictures and trying to remember them after the prac.. wow…
i’m sorry if you don’t share my excitement.. lol
capsule stain: Klebsiella pneumoniae
spore stain: Bacillus subtilis
negative stain: Bacillus subtilis
flagella stain: Proteus vulagris
glycogen stain: Saccharomyces cerevisiae
lipid stain: Bacillus megaterium
cell wall stain: Bacillus megaterium
Hanging drop: Escherichia coli
the last one is supposed to be mobile.. but unless i took a video, i wouldn’t be able to capture that.
tell me if you’re amazed that a camera phone can actually do that too!
i certainly am!
p.s. shit la, i forgot to take photos of the acid fast stain! grrrr…..
jokes from igoogle
ehh there’s this igoogle thingy which i use to keep myself updated with everything and anything… from google calendar, places to visit, national geographic photos.. etcetc..
there’s this column on joke of the day..

Don’t Leave ‘Em Hanging
Ralph and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital.
One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Ralph suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Ralph out.
When the Head Nurse became aware of Edna’s heroic act she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her to be mentally stable.
When she went to tell Edna the news she said, “Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you’re being discharged; since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness. The bad news is, Ralph, the patient you saved, hung himself with his bathrobe belt in the bathroom. I am so sorry, but he’s dead.”
.
.
.
Edna replied “He didn’t hang himself. I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?”
t’was the first day..
that i took the bus/train to school! whee~~~~
actually, nothing to whee about. i spent part of the time reading for my cmfas exam.. part of the time sleeping after being so tired of reading. hahah.
and erm, it took 1 hr 15 mins! not as long as i thought it would be. maybe cos i usually take the train and bus on the weekends when the frequency is like shit. but i left my house at 1030am.. and slightly before 1130am i was already at buona vista!
okay so now i roughly know how long i would take to get to school.
and guess what, I WAS EARLY FOR MY LECTURE!
omgomg.
i mean, when i stayed in hall.. i’m usually like on time or maybe 5mins late.. but I WAS EARLY! (maybe cos it’s still the first day hahah)
lecture was gen physio, and i quite like this hk prof already! he’s interesting and funny! (and thinks that sgp education shld be more like us edn, where they encourage thinking and questioning, not just plain memorizing. he’s so damn right!)
funny snippets of what happened in class:
prof: so when you lie down flat at the swimming pool, do you sink or float?
*some say sink, some say float* but basically if u can float means you have too much fats.
prof: so i’m very happy, that at my age, my lower body still sinks, which means i’m not very fat
girl in class: “OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!”
prof: yes, really. hahha.
someone’s hp ringtone rang…
“wo shi xiao bai, wo zai da gei ni, ni wei shen me bu jie dian hua”… in the super la-pi-xiao-xin voice. omg.
when asked what differentiates the prof from non living things,
guy A: you can talk!
girl A: you can grow without instructions
guy B: you can give birth
*everyone bursts into laughter*
prof: correction, my wife can give birth, but i cannot.
btw, that guy B is damn freaking eccentric. he like brings his whole bag out during lecture. ??? and when break was over, he was like telling everyone “SSSSSHHHHH, SSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH” damn loudly. *shudders*
anyway, deardear msged that he was feeling feverish and couldn’t meet me… so after lunch with hazel and sarah before taking bus to dear’s place! aiyah, sadly didn’t manage to cook porridge for dear. think he was too hungry so he got noodles for himself. hope dear is thankful for me coming down to take care of him :)
then after that i was kinda late, so dear sent me to yio chu kang, then i would take mrt from there. but aiyah, shit! he passed me the keys earlier cos he was worried that they would drop out when he rode his bike.. but dammit! i forgot to pass it to him.. until i was on the train.. put my hand into my pocket.. and i was like… oh shit. what is this?? omg. IT’S DEARDEAR’S KEYS!! thankfully his mum was at home to open the door for him. oh no….
anyway, went to central at clarke quay. hl told me they were at pasta de waraku. turns out they’re at waraku instead la! i went into the PDM, then couldn’t find anyone. sheesh.
anyway that place’s orientation and layout sucks la. it’s like the shops are hidden in places you would think that they’re just small alleys to the toilets.. and the toilets are not at those small alleys, but outside the building instead. seriously damn hard to get around.
okay, didn’t really take many photos though, but hl, i uploaded on facebook! (cos wordpress has a limit to the max size i can upload so i dun wanna use it)
OMFG
AIR TICKETS FOR QATAR AIRWAYS IS NOW SGD 1687.14!!!
that’s like 676.86 cheaper than the price i just put up in the last post!!!!!! and that’s the price including taxes somemore! omg omg…
i must update hui ann and jolene.. okay, emailed them.
omg. that’s damn cheap, seriously.
but of course i can’t exactly select the date in july yet cos it’s a wayyyyy too advanced date.. so.. i’m gonna keep monitoring!
and euro to sgd is dropping too!
on xe.com.
yippeee!!
1.00 EUR |
= |
2.11058 SGD |
flight prices for now
didn’t buy tickets from NATAS fair today.. cos fuel prices are dropping. look at the petrol kiosks.. petrol prices are no longer more than 2 bucks per litre, even for unleaded 98. phew. well for shell at least.. dear went to an esso shop that day and they were still charging for more than 2 bucks! bleah.
anyway, prices for return tickets, one year validity, able to change dates without penalty charges:
SQ – $2423
Qantas/BA – $2351.44
Qatar – $2364
Msia Airlines – $2488.50
Emirates – $2624.44
Cathay – $2898.16
hmm, you know what? i would rather take SQ. lol. since the price is one of the lowest.. (except QF/BA/QR).. but, might as well top up that less than 100 bucks and travel in comfort right? lol.
hopefully the fuel prices will dip soon… i only bought my tickets for $1350 last year. hokito they all bought for $900+ on AIR FRANCE. sheesh.
i took sri lankan airlines the other time. boy, i was quite pleased by their service really!
1. free transport to and fro to complimentary stary
2. free complementary stay at Tamarind Tree Resort
3. free international buffet dinner at the resort
4. the girls had a bungalow at the resort.. though i don’t think we made use of our kitchen at all.. but at least there were decent cable channels like MTV!!
5. there was a swimming pool at the resort!!
6. service on the plane was actually quite fast and efficient
7. food on the plane was so damn good!
for mains, i had the CHEESE CHILLI OMELETTE – broiled chicken sausage, grilled mushrooms and tomatos, rosti potatoes.
for desserts, i had Chocolate Truffle Gâteau, oh and a Peach Gâteau on another flight.
i can’t remember what my Hors d’oeuvre was.. but i remembered that it was damn delicious as well.
so.. what do you know?
Emirates Airlines has 43.63% shareholding in Sri Lankan Airlines. does that tell you anything yet?
haha.
sleeping late…
does sleeping late make you gain weight?
well at least for one thing i know i don’t snack when i’m sleeping late. oh well, i’ll leave the studying till tomorrow. shall wake up around 9am for a run! (provided it’s not raining, if it is.. i’ll just have to push it back by an hour or so ba..)
i hate running you know. it’s just that..
I NEED THE EXERCISE.
gosh. i am turning into a big fat ball soon. i can no longer maintain my 45kg, something which i did till the end of the first semester in hall.
bahh.
okay, 2 kg to be lost! (so yah, it doesn’t take a genius to know my current weight)
dammit la. i put on one kg from hall, another kg from france. bleahhh. i must remember not to have so much red wine and cheese when i’m there. okay red wine is easy, since i’ll be staying in campus and not my madame’s place.. but cheese? it’s served during meals lah! okay maybe i shall take the yoghurt instead of the cheese option. hahah. plain white yoghurt with a certain sourness. yummy!
i tell you why i can grow fat in france man. what do we eat for lunch?
1. choice of yoghurt/cheese. I MISS MY BRESSE BLUE!! AND MY CAMEMBERT!!
2. choice of fruit/dessert (the dessert can sometimes be like PURE CHOCOLATE, in a little container. damn rich and yummy. omg, i just realised… I MISS THE GRAPEFRUIT AND KIWI THERE TOO!! shall eat the kiwi in the fridge tmr after my run)
3. bread (ehh, this one i don’t really eat.. since i’ll be too full.. and it’s usually just used to feed the goose/swan/etc etc)
4. drinks (water/coffee/tea)
5. choice of salad/speciality. I MISS MY BLOOD SAUSAGE!! i know it sounds damn gross and cruel to have veal’s blood wrapped up in this black/dark brown skin.. (which kinda looks like shit, btw. literally.) and the SALAD IS SOOOOO DAMN DELICIOUS! even without any dressing!!! no thousand island sauce like singapore. nahhh. i would put mustard in it sometimes though. but to eat it plain (with cheese, sometimes) is damn nice!
6. le plat. ehh. main course.
which consists of:
a. legumes (cooked with cheese. lol. zucchini in cheese rocks ok!!)
b. meat (chicken/fish/pork). trust me, fish is TASTELESS over there. it’s so gross that i don’t usually eat meat.. but i have to eat chicken/pork at times.
c. staple. NEVER EVER EAT WHITE RICE THERE. once, it was OVERCOOKED and SOGGY. another time, it was UNDERCOOKED and CRUNCHY. lol. the best thing i would go for is….. COUS COUS!! yummy moroccan dish. ehh, and DON’T ever try the fries there. seriously.. they’re like steamed fries or something. quite tasteless. lol. i don’t even know if they add salt into it. haha. but then again if i turn up for lunch, earlier, than say.. 1.15pm.. i wouldn’t have to eat fries!! yaaay!
this is so weird. a singaporean kid would probably love fries.. and here i am trying to avoid the fries. lol.
so you see, this is how i can grow fat in france. lol.
anyway, back to the topic on weight. my current bmi is now 19.7 (boohoo)
shall lose weight and get back to 18.9!
jiayou!!
new semester soon…
the idea of cafe del mar is vapourizing into thin air??? why why why??
damn. i shall msg nx and hl later to check when can we EVENTUALLY go to cafe del mar. sheesh. hahahahahhahahahahahahahaha.
on a sidenote, i miss deardear so much! thanks dear for coming down all the way to tampines mall to watch red cliff with me. it’s nice!!
but then the last part made me feel so cheated. like damn! there i am expecting the great war to happen.. then kanasai, must wait for part two! sheeshhhhhhh.
omg. school is starting so damn soon. i’m not looking forward though. FIVE CORE MODULES! woahhh. damn heavy lah! but oh well, i have to do it anyway!!! add oil add oil!!!

aaarrrgghhhh shit! it’s raining! oh no. means i have to bring an umbrella out. plus i have lug like FOUR thick, heavy lonely planet books to the bukit merah library to return before/after tuition. and it’s OVERDUE somemore. i didn’t even notice that it was overdue. bleahh.
oh well seems like everything sucks for this new semester. ah crap why is it raining so heavily?? so ma fan to travel anyway lahh!!! damn!
oh btw, is there a specific name to call the “…” in english? i think in chinese for 6 dots there is right? is it called xie hou yu or something?

new look!
i’m in the state of packing/revamping/throwing old items/buying new items for my room. hahaha. in preparation for the brand new semester!
damn, the ikea magazine just came today in the post.. i.. ehh. kinda wish i have a whole new bedroom look man! with like a sofa bed and all! hoho.
i am nuts.
but ikea magazines always make me feel very happy and “wwwaaaahhhhhh”. like damn, i want those stuff! and plus ikea stuff aren’t very expensive.. so it’s good for my pocket as well.
i must make this place as conducive as possible, so that i can study well in here since i’m going to stay at home instead of in hall for the next semester!
heartwrenching
omg. my heart really goes out to this baby. these few days on central, they’re showing this programme called “Human Spirit”. it makes you feel that you’re really fortunate to be born normal.. whether you’re fat/skinny/pretty/ugly.. whatever. because seriously the pain that you’re going through can never be matched up to people like this.
it’s like they’re just struggling to survive everyday, and yet we’re always just not satisfied and complaining.
this one is on the half man half tree i watched the other day. like the doctor tried to take a sample of it.. but when he cut that little bit.. it was bleeding! omg. i could seriously feel the pain man!
and he actually performs in this troupe with his other friends. like i mean the troupe master is trying to get them to perform and earn money for their treatments.. but somehow i feel that it’s a little cruel to do so. it’s like getting the world to stare and mock at them.
the rest of the people in the troupe:
there was this bubble man as well. his body was like full of little bubbles.. hence his name.
and a few others.
i seriously think there’s something wrong with the water/food which they eat over there. otherwise.. how can a small village actually have like FIVE cases of deformities like this??
haish. i seriously thank God that I am normal.
.
.
anyway met up with zijian today since he’s back from ubc (i told dear beforehand of course. i know it’s nothing wrong to go out with guy friends.. but i would rather tell my dear since i’m going out with him one on one la.)
ehh went to his place, then his maid cooked some kway teow thingy. nice.. except when i accidentally chewed on a piece of GARLIC!!! omg. i hald to gulp down like one HUGGGGGGE glass of water and the taste was still there lah! eeewwwww!!
and also when i ate a piece of sotong! omg. it was so tough and rubbery. yucks. and of course i picked out the spring onion too.
he said that obviously i wasn’t an adventurous eater. which is like DUH. lol.
went to tcc at plaza sing after that. basically just chatted and stuff la. i had ultimate hazelnut frappé. not bad! but of course it’s not something that hl would drink, since… IT IS NOT A PRETTY DRINK!
lol.
i remembered that hl would go to tcc.. and order PRETTY DRINKS. like rose julliet.
waahhahaah.
but i wanted something ice blended cos the weather was so damn hot and i had to wear long pants due to my very ugly skin from the incident whereby i burnt my leg from dear’s bike exhaust pipe. it’s like peeling halfway.. tons of different skin colour. i don’t want to scare people in orchard. i mean if i’m just at my own place and stuff it’s okay la. but not when i’m taking public transport. later people think it’s some skin disease or something. bleahh.
i really miss wearing skirts and dresses though. now even when i put on dresses, i have to wear leggings. damn sian.
ehh anyway went to borders after that to look for a band of brothers book. later when i messaged my dear.. it turns out that he has the book! and now it turns out that dear is probably fascinated by how someone actually has the same interest as him and looooooooooooooove band of brothers to bits. lol.
okay so after that i went back home on my own cos he had to meet his other friends at the zhu chao place beside prata house at thomson.. wherever that is. i couldn’t even tell him what bus to go to when he asked me. i am damn bad with bus directions. i still have to look at that board at the bus stop to check if it goes where i’m headed to. hahaha.
hmm, shall sleep early tonight since i’m sleepy. and also because i wanna go for a run tomorrow morning! at maybe 8 am or so? hopefully no one stares at my ugly leg.
bleahhh.
okay, that’s all for now!
i so badly wanna take photos. but stupid snappy shutters hasn’t come up with a theme yet even though it’s monday already. bleahh.
i also wanna go on those “photog outings” to like different parts of singapore and take photos. but no one would go with me too i guess. double bleahhh.
and i also haven’t met up with nx and hl!! triple bleahhh..
and i haven’t seen joo for sooooooooooo long!! quadruple bleahhhh..
and i have to wait for wednesday before i can see my dear!!! quintuple bleahh…
okay okay. bathe, do stuff while hair dries.. and go to sleep!! (must be the earliest so far! but i have to prepare myself for this sem’s timetable since i’m no longer staying in hall and i have to travel like mad to school!!)
another weekend
oops! i forgot to update.. but I PASSED! yaay! passing mark is 75% and it’s a CSE format. erm basically you click on the computer for the answers lah.
i did once.. then hmm, decided to take my own sweet time cos i had too much time left.
checked once through.
checked another time (cos i was damn worried to press the “finish” button)
damn sian. my eyes are dry.. i feel kind of bored..
okay.. and so i clicked “finish”
*heart skipped a beat*
PASS!
yaay!
went back to office to book for the next paper. my boss said my eyebags were HUGE. and that i seriously looked damn lack of sleep. lol. which is true. because i stayed awake till like 345am to study.. in order to finish the syllabus. lol.
went to teach tuition after that.. thank goodness i managed to stay awake throughout the entire lesson! phew!
on saturday.. i woke up damn early too! why leh? cos i wanted to go to NATAS fair early to avoid the queue. reached at about 940am or so.. there was a short queue but i knew for sure it was for NATAS so i just stood there.
some people were like “let’s go in front to check out what queue this is for”.. and returned back with gloomy faces.. only to realise that the queue had extended by sooooooooooooooo much. hahha. lucky me i must say! wanying came a little while later, and not long later.. the place was open for admission.
this couple (or is it like father and daughter? not sure.. the man looks too old to be her husband).. then tried to to cut queue in front of us! wah lan eh! seriously lah! even though i didn’t queue for very long.. but still.. cannot just cut my queue okay! the group in front of me was huddling together, not allowing her to cut the queue either.
but somehow i think the people behind me didn’t catch up fast enough.. so this two people cut in lah! sheesh man!
and that’s not the worst part.
later on there was this young couple.. the gf was like “don’t want la, let’s queue”.. then the bf was like “don’t care, just cut queue”
but he had no chance of cutting in front of me cos i was following the group in front very closely.
so they tried to cut behind me..
and remember the couple (or father-daughter duo) who cut the queue earlier??
the woman was so damn bitchy.
her dad/husband said: “just let them cut lah. after all we also cut queue what”
guess what she said?
.
.
.
JUST BECAUSE I SUCCESSFULLY MANAGED TO CUT OTHER PEOPLE’S QUEUE THAT’S WHY I WON’T ALLOW THEM TO CUT MY QUEUE!
LIKE SERIOUSLY, WTF? THIS WOMAN IS A FUCKING BITCH MAN!
wah lan eh! other people let her cut.. and she’s not even bloody thankful enough… she had to be soooooooooooooo ungracious!
shows how ugly SOME singaporeans can get. (hey, i didn’t stereotype and i didn’t mention names, hence no one should sue me. plus these reports are always on the newspapers anyway!)
worse than those people who try to rush into the MRT, when they’re supposed to let the people who are exiting come out first! (that’s why the government drew the yellow lines there ya??)
grrr.
sometimes i look and i think.. dammit. i rather take the public transport in lyon man!
whereby people graciously wait for you to exit before boarding.
whereby there’s no pushing (but of cos sometimes you can get squashed up if trams are packed).
whereby people enter.. and instead of walking towards the seats (like some guys in business suits.. just push me away to get the fucking seat on the train when i was fucking wearing a bandage!)… they walk towards the “standing section” of the train.. that sometimes you feel damn paiseh to actually take a seat cos you’re not old/disabled/sick.
such should be the perfect behaviour!
but tsk tsk.
anyway i quite HATE to take the train in singapore, especially now with the fuel prices increasing and everyone’s rushing to take the train.
siannnnn.
oops. okay, anyway NATAS fair. haha.
ehhh anyway we went to the mastercard queue (cos got 1 buck off for mastercard holders).. and the queue was much shorter than the cash payment. lol!
so that’s why cards are useful! lol. i’m so damn glad for mastercards and visas! wheeeee~~~
eh the queue inside wasn’t as bad as what you see in the news cos i went so early. at most we had to wait for like 2 people in front of us only. which takes only like 2 minutes or so.. since CTC is quite a huge company and has many counters.
but anyway i didn’t buy any tickets cos the air tickets for one year validity (and allows you to change date without charges) is damn expensive! (at the moment)
so.. i’m just gonna wait.. and check out online prices in the meantime!
okay so we were done..
and wanying and i went changi airport terminal 3 to eat popeye’s chicken! yum yum!
and you know what?
i completely forgot that i had intracouncil, as well as eugene’s gathering with our class thingy!
shit lah!
oops!!!!!
:X
okay.. so anyway since i went for NATAS fair on sat.. i pushed my tuition to sunday instead. it was 10am at bukit merah. so you can imagine just how early i had to get up. since journey there is about one and a half hours!
haven’t slept till a later time these few days!
ehhh anyway i went to dear’s place after tuition.. tried to get his army helmet but wasn’t successful. then went to his nai nai’s place.. where xiao shen cooked…
MAI PIAN XIA!
i freaking love mai pian xia k!!!
sadly dear had to leave early for his dance thingy at school so his parents sent me back after that la.
oh well.
i am so sleepy
