I still haf his sms in my hp:

"Hey wad you doing?" - sent 12.25am 7th oct '03
"Yo hows life.. hope you are doing fine. Take care of yourself well." - sent 5.24am 7th oct '03

I didnt reply him. Tats the last I've "heard" from him ever since then. I didnt noe wat to reply then. I dun wanna noe wat's gonna happen. Im too numb for anything. I dont hate or love [make tat like instead] him anymore. But Im grateful tat we've crossed each other's path, we taught each other. Looking back now, I wont cry anymore, Im smiling instead. =) Will keep the sweet memories with me n leave the bad ones behind.

Wonder how's he been doing though. Hope all's fine and alrite for him too. No matter wat, we were frens once n hope we still r. Perhaps I might jus give him a call one day... yeah... one day.

im dead pooped~

Oh man, im so tired! I wan my sleep! I can hear the bed calling me! but i still haf stuffs unfinished! Damn! im so exhausted tat i cun budge, practically stoning. *stares at screen*

Finally the last day of the yr eh? Cun say im excited nor really happy abt the coming new yr. But im prepared for wats in stall for the new yr [hope so]. Ive been so caught up with xmas n frens n stuffs over the past few mths, the past few days espically. Din really manage to get enuff sleep due to some reasons [murderer! tsk tsk...] But today has been pretty fruitful.

1. manage to add in captions today [@ work] for the photos i uploaded last nite. haha.. wasting working hrs doing personal stuffs eh? i still have another bunch of photos waiting to be uploaded. hope i wont let tat drag.
   
   
2. met Jan for dinner, manage to pass him the books i help bought. Chatted abt his plans to backpack in Europe in the coming yr.
   
   
3. bought my konnyaku jelly ingredients + rice balls aka tang yuan [seasame seed, peanut, red bean flavours] @ the supermarket
   
   
4. spent 3hrs in the kitchen jus to fix the konnyaku jelly and cranberry + orange concentrated juices mix. it's me 1st time doing these okay! But I had 3 diff kinds of jelly made [well sort of]. >_<
   
   
5. after this it's onto wrapping my xmas pressies for Trixy, Lisi & Syndy. We r gonna celebrate Xmas n NYE together at Victor's place. Yippy!!! looking forward to it! Counting down together while stuffing ourselves with food. Sleeping in together. We gonna haf some food feast! Im bringing the jellies, juice mix n tang yuan [special request from the gals]. Lisi's gonna b making quiche [yummy!]. Syndy's gonna b making potato salad [im going crazy. i love potato!]. Think Trix wld b making fruit salad [*drools*]... guess there wld b some more other food as well. Shall find out more when I get there. boy oh boy.. i can barely wait.
   
   
6. speaking of spending the night over at vic's place with the gals, i hafta get my stuffs packed too. oh bother... its as if im gonna run away from home. hahaa... gotta bring the food n overnite stuffs. boy do i haf lots to carry to work later. darn... but it's gonna b fun celebrating NYE with me great frens together!! I love em! This beats squeezing with the sticky crowds in some club shouting 3 - 2 - 1, Happy New Year! Beep beep beep!! Shall leave the clubbing to some other time then. Think im getting a lil old for tat oredi. tsk tsk...

Christmas eve

Woke up to a fairly moody start in the morning. 1st, missed a call from a friend [must haf slept like a pig]. 2nd, had a kinda bad hair day. 3rd, looked like a panda cos of the terrible puffy eyes n dark eye circles. [as if i dont everyday.. ha]. all in all, mood for the day wasnt right. must haf got out of the wrong side of the bed eh.

At work, i was pretty quiet, not like the usual me. Din really spoke much nor interact with my colleagues/bosses. Sigh... even one of my colleagues wasnt feeling in the right mood either. Wonder wat's gone wrong with the both of us. She asked me ques, i answered em unwillingly & annoyingly. I asked her stuffs, she replied em like we were starting to pick up a fight. We were like pretty pissed off. Sigh.. women! *slaps forehead* can never understand em!

Wat's worst was this...... really made me blood boil. hmm okie.. think boil is too much a word to use. anyway guess wat's gonna happened next really made my day man [sounds better?]...yeah? neh! felt as if the sky has fallen down on me [sounds worse?]... as i was saying.... I received an sms from a gd fren [shant name out who] asking how im gonna b spending my xmas eve. gee.. it's been a long time since she contacted me n vice versa. we used to b pretty close, but ever since she found a boyfriend, we sorta start contacting each other lesser until it gets to a point where we dun even noe wat's happening in each other's life. I was surprised to see her sms, so I gave her a call. But i had a feeling tat she wun meet up with me tonite either.

Anyway the impt thing i wanna say isnt abt whether she's coming to meet me n my godsis tonite. Okay, this gd fren of mine, she's going thru the chinese customary marriage this coming feb. Some time back I've agreed to be her bridesmaid on her chinese wedding day. [gave her my word when she R.O.M earlier this yr] Since we both havent been in much contact n that the day is slowly drawing near, i couldnt help worrying abt it. So I asked her wats the plan gonna b for the bridesmaid over the phone. Like when do i haf to meet her up to see her try on her gown n wat abt the bridesmaid's gown n stuffs. N she replied saying tat i gotta settle the prob of the bridesmaid gown myself. [Wat the #*%@ !!!!!!] She told me i gotta go buy the gown myself. [Another one more WAT THE #*%@ !!!!!!] This is so ridiculous!!!!! Oh man, where m i gonna get a gown? They dun come cheap [for the better ones], where m i gonna find one for tat day? I told her. She still has got the cheeks to tell me tat since its the xmas season, i can scout ard for discounts n get nice ones. Hey, hello! X'mas sales n stuffs r coming to an end. n now u r telling me this so late! Argh!!! GrRrRrr ... im so pissed! Still dare say she wld help me keep a look out. HA, wat a big help tat is. Thanks man!

So can u believe this?! I gotta settle the gown prob myself! I wont mind since she's such a gd fren of mine. But hey it's not my wedding, it's hers! N i tot she shld help me get a gown, like rent one for me or something. Of cos she's bz with her wedding planning n might not haf time to think abt her bridesmaid, but does it makes sense tat i gotta buy a gown for myself jus to b her bridesmaid? N i wont haf any chances/occassions to be wearing it again after tat. It's such a waste of $$$$$! I'm a poor, broke lass, not some rich gal alrite! Later i might even end up doing my own makeup n hairdo tat day itself. [which i know nuts abt, bummer!]

But i really wonder... does the bridesmaid gotta settle her own outfit/gown prob herself? anyone? Wat m i to do? Shld i let her noe i wont b able to b her bridesmaid since i haf difficulties with the gown bit??? But how shld i break this to her? *sigh* But im mad still! GrRrrRrr.......

gathering

Suddenly outta the blues, i received a mysterious call from a guy last nite. woo... who can it be?? how come he noes me while i dun even haf the faintest idea who he is? But fret not, i shall find out the ans the very next nite. im gonna meet up with him ... haha.. well not jus him alone. its gonna b a class outing. a group [ppl in the orientation group back during our 1st 3 mths in SRJC] outing more like it in fact. how exciting. i dun even rem who they r. hell, its been 5 bloody freaking yrs since i last saw those guys man. yes how exciting. wonder if i cld rem em when i see em. wonder if they cld recognise me too. wonder who's gonna turn up. think i oni rem a few of the gals. oh how exciting!

so there I was, outside Kenny Rogers. Kinda nervous, wonder how wld the gathering go. Actually i din wanted to turn up tonite, for its been so many yrs since we all kept in contact. [ive been a bad gal] But as u noe im a gal of my words, n being a curious lass.. i decided to brave thru it! haha.. as if im like some wonder gal. Woo... think I saw someone! Oh dear.. it cun b.. i actually recgonise one of the gals! cool.... Total turn up rate for the nite was 10, including me [7 gals 3 guys]. tats nice.... not too bad, i cld rem the gals' faces [though not all their names], but the guys i hardly cld. heh heh...but its coming back to me a lil.... some of the ppl were still in contact with each other, making me feel bad cos i wasnt. anyway... we sorta give a lil speech each of wat happened to each of us after we left 3 mths of SRJC. had a pretty fun time chatting/catching up. I din really tok much, was pretty shy >_< tsk tsk...

after Kenny Rogers, we all moved off to esplanade for some photo shoots. n a lil more gossiping abt one of the guys n his gf. We gals forever r so "bitchy" afterall..muah hahahaha.... found out one of his weakness with the gals too. how amusing! heh heh.... shall not disclose wat tat weakness is here just in case .... watever :p

Guess it's been a pretty fruitful nite cum gathering then. Glad I made it. Wonder when's the nxt gathering gonna b. Perhaps a vball outing @ sentosa? Hope we all wun hafta wait for another 5 yrs jus for another gathering.

Tenderheart

The very moment I reached my desk at work this morning, there looking right at me in the eyes was this small lil brown bear. Sitting on my keyboard, oh, those innocent eyes, cheery smile with a small tongue sticking out, a big heart on its tummy, staring hard at me. The carebear stare! Oh my god! How on earth did a tenderheart carebear end up on my keyboard??? I was puzzled yet surprised n delighted. Though it may look a lil off-color, but still it's some treasure to me, a gift. Cute vintage carebear. Though im not really into such kinda thingy, think it belongs to the late 1980's.

Found out that it's a gift from my lady boss. She happened to be browsing thru some auctions in yahoo and came across that bear n decide to bid it for me. WOW! I'm so touched. *sniffs sniffs* I really m, serious!!! We used to catch a few episodes of the carebear cartoons on TV together sometimes [but a pity it's not showing anymore.. aww], so guess she must haf really tot im some kinda carebear fan. Well, actually im not really one. >_< tsk tsk... anyway as i was saying... I was really at a lost of words... she shld haf gotten me all the other carebears as well man.. haha.. jus kidding =p well.. made me kinda guilty man, furthermore she will treat my colleagues n i many-a-times to some tibits n food too. lucky us man. where can u go to get such a good lady boss or boss? hee... will see wat i can get for her when im out shopping one day then :) since xmas is approaching. oh boy do i love the holiday seasons. a pity there aint any snow here in singapore.

happen to b browsing thru the carebear site. was looking at tenderheart's profile, guess im kinda like this carebear in some ways or another eh! *grinz* [ http://www.care-bears.com/CareBears/html/about/tenderheart.html ]

"new" car

My dad omost gave me a scare this afternoon. here's how it goes...

Suddenly received a call from me dad after lunch @ work today. He sounded kinda serious over the phone, and was speaking a lil softer than his usual tone. All I heard was some mumbles from him, something abt his car. I tot something happen to him and/or his car! Trying to remain calm, I got him to repeat what he had just said again. In the end I found out he's actually trying to tell me that he has jus bought a "new" car. a 2nd hand Toyota Corona~ Auto transmission type. Didnt sound like a new model/car to me, not the latest model or watever... wonder if i wld like this "new" car.. hmm but hey it's not me who's paying for it... so i shld b content okay!! dionk dionk!!

What's really really weird was this..... whilst having lunch with my colleagues earlier on, one of em was asking me when's my dad gonna be changing to an auto car. I told her not so soon as my dad only intends to change the car nxt spring. Hey hey hey!! N how did u noe... Not long after my dad called to deliver news abt his "new" car! Woo hoo hoo! Freaking eh... Guess it's time to buy some 4D... hahaha

hiak hiak... guess now I wld haf more ease driving this auto car instead of the previous manual car. No more gear changing, nor clutch to worry abt! Only brakes n accelerator!!! Can't wait to get my hands n feet on da car. >_<

Run shoes run~

I saw this pair of blue sneakers staring right at me when I opened the door of my shoe cabinet this morning. I swear they were calling to me, I swear they were! Beckoning me to wear em~ wicked! lemme see.... it's been years since i've brought em out for a walk. Alrighty then, I'm gonna show em some light today!

I felt like a school gal again! Black singlet top, short navy blue demin skirt, blue canvas sneakers, purple biggie tote bag, copper dangling earrings. lalalalal~

I wore em to work~ hmm... it's a size or 2 smaller, think my feet has grown a lil over the years. I could feel my toes cringing against the inner wall up @ the front. *ouch* But who cares, vainity kills!

I wore em back home~ Damn! Think my feet swelled a lil thru out the day, it's starting to feel tighter in the eve when I wore em on again [i changed into slippers while i'm @ work]. Barely could I walk like a normal gal during the 1st few mins. *ouch ouch* Vainity does kills!

As I was approaching my bus stop, I saw my bus right there! Oh NO! I won't wanna miss dat bus do i... I'm not gonna sit there n wait for another 15 mins! Uh uh.. no way! I quicken my steps... oh dear the bus's doors r closing! ARGH!!! I ran! *ouch ouch ouch* Vainity really KILLS!

I made it in home, yesh!!! Lucky no blisters! Phew~ Think i'm gonna wear em again sometime next wk! VAINITY WILL KILL! haha...

it's been omost a fortnight since i had dinner back home! Bz bz bz... friends, life, driving, work, play... time flies, havent been really in a good mood sometimes over the past few days/weeks, but I'm happy for today/tonight at least. Dinner was 1 roast duck drumstick, 1 brown's yorgurt, 2 pepperidge farm's soft baked big cookies, 2 small chocolate salty balls [now now... its not wat u think okay! dun b notti. if u dunno wat i mean den dun think abt it.... haaaa], a few breadstick biscuits with lotsa cream dipping [onions + chives + parsley]!!!! yummy!!! No wonder I can't shed those xtra kilos off! Oh man! Life's sinful! hahahaa...

Making a come back!

Finally after so many many many weeks of letting my blog rot... i'm back!! Well for today at least... *sigh* alot of things have been going on n happening during my blog absence, but here i m again! ..... muah hahahaaa!!!!

accident prone

I was embarrassed by myself just now.

WHY? u wld ask?

heh heh ... simply b'cos i lost my footing and fell on the escalator while i was trying to climb it to catch the MRT. Damn! So many [didnt count how many] ppl behind who witnessed my ordeal. yeh.. think i even heard a giggle or some mocking laugh. hahaha... not at all funny. Grrrrr.... Think i'm really accident prone man. im so scary. *grinz* well lucky i was wearing jeans, if not i wld haf gotten more scars. Manage to escape with minor skin peeling beneath the jeans. Ouch~ hope it wun bleed, cos it feels little swollen. >_<

1st driving experience with da P-plate

think i omst felt like crying jus now man! it was jus so scary i tell u! haiz... think im a such failure. wonder how on earth did i manage to get my driving license man. anyway it was my 1st time driving my dad's car tonite. i tried to drive 2 frens home [well sorta] ard their area. my dad was sitting beside me in the car. he was there to keep an eye on me. boy was he tough on me, "raising" his voice while he instruct me on how to drive his car. kept urging me to put in more effort when stepping on the accelerator man~ so stressed! i wasnt even checking the mirrors nor my blind spots [well at least i did tried when trying to filter lanes].

must admit i wasnt used to driving my dad's car yet, too used to driving my instructor's car. :( my feet coordination was terrible, sucky. And when i'm suppose to go fast i was driving so slowly, not stepping enuff on the accelerator, then getting told off by my dad for tat.. sobs sobs.... when im suppose to go slow it was the opp. haiz.... i even try to beat the red light, lucky it was still amber when i drove pass... if not woo hooo 12 demerit points! >_< then there's sharp n wide turnings at the junctions... :( think i scare my frens at the back seats! can see tat they r trying not to show fear on their faces. they used giggles to cover up fear pretty well. *sigh*

even my 1st attempt at trying to park without poles at the car park sucks big time man. horrible! my dad really "shouted" at me man... im so stoopid... he chided me~ sobs >_< but i believes he loves me the same no matter wat. hee hee...

damn! wonder how long will it take me to master the art of driving man! dont think i dare drive alone on the road yet, let alone the expressway.But... but...but one day i shall prevail against the driving monster! yeah! jus u wait u monster!!! heh heh~ think i better stick to roller blading for the time being then. hahaa :p

one of the happiest day in my life

it was a cool friday afternoon. rain pour over earth in the early morning. the ground was wet. lucky it stopped raining in the early afternoon.

there i was sitting by the table opposite my tester after the test i've just completed. I omost tot I couldnt make it. n yet i tot i could too. I bit my lips, my fingers felt numb. i kept contradicting myself. He looked stern and strict as he told me wat my mistakes were while marking the paper, trying to hide the overall results from my view. I tot to myself,"of cos u made it. u r not gonna fail if hes doing tat right? covering up the marks n not letting u see... but then again u did made quite a num of mistakes, n hes really ticking quite a num of em ya noe. so mayb u might fail after all!"

after summing up the marks, with a grave look he said to me,"okay... u can go now......." while passing me my result slip "to the counter 3 and watch the video tape". [well oni those who pass will get to view da tape abt safety n stuffs]

I'VE FINALLY PASSED MY DRIVING TEST!!!!!!! Yippy yippy yeah!! WooOoo HooOoo ... Horaay!!!!! *my heart jumps with great joy* :p
u couldnt imagine how happy i was! i was so happy tat the oni word i can think of to describe it is HAPPY! hahahaa!!! i omost cried! but neh, the tears didnt coorporate with me.

If I let you go~

The last time i've seen him was this feb. The last time i've "heard" from him was this june. Seems like he oways has this terrible bad habit of being MIA [missing in action] for as long as he likes or wants to. Totally no news, no nothing. Then once every few months or once in a yr get back into contact again.

Sigh~

I dare say that it's not ever gonna be the same anymore this time round. Guess he has let go and gone on ahead, found a life of his own again. I believe it is time i let go too and stop this waiting. It never was ez and never had been any easier too. I will never forget, for the wound is there. Time will heal but the scar wont.

womad 2003

sigh... think im getting very lazy lately~ there's so many things i wanna post it up here, but jus too damn lazy to do it~ *bish bish*

anyway as i was saying [did i?], enuff abt the lazy bit.... yeh yeh moving onto something else.. WOMAD 2003

hmmm will keep this short [reason being, lazy! not a very gd reason though *bish bish*]

together with my frens, we attended the saturday one, 1st time at womad~ it was great, had fun jumping to the music, moving ard looking at the food and stalls n people [lots of handsomes n beauties, cute young kids n babies too :-p], snapping pics away with ourselves in it. heh heh... hell it was a lot of people ard the place.. great atmosphere, great hell of a time.I think the dance performance by La Luna was very nice, captivated my heart right there *melts*. Unfortunately half-way thru the last performance by Nitin Sawhney, it started to pour heavily. Tat din dampen the spirits of the people, they continue to dance in the rain, cheering n screaming. U could see a few umbrellas popping outta the crowd. amongst those were me n my frens [the rest were strangers... think u r not tat stoopid not to figure tat the rest r strangers rite? ha.. i must b crazy]. we couldnt risk getting ourselves ill ya noe for we need our health for watever it is we need to keep it for, heh heh. [*bish bish* im getting a little crappy]

there's this large heineken blown-up bottle at one part of the place [womad's held @ fort canning], i think its just so lovely! couldnt resist taking a pic of me with a big big over-sized heineken hat on me head, n a little small heineken fan in one of me hands standing in front of the xtra xtra large heineken bottle~ wooo hooo!!!! stunning!

okay anything else i've failed to add in is cos im jus too lazy to give details. [hmm... then wats the point of posting this blog? *bish bish*]

well... i had a pretty tiring day today. didnt had the usual vball routine, went blading though. fun, cloudy sunday, nice cool weather, lucky no rain. had a bashing workout, speeding like mad, chasing after my frens. [think im getting better at not falling dwn...i.e. when not trying out any stunts... heh heh]

rainy days and mondays

Bah BOOM! Tah DOOM! BiNg BaNg BOo! Thunder and lighting ruled the sky tonight. Foul monday night indeed. A sense of evil lurking round every corner you can imagine.

Ah ha! Me n my imagination again. Lovely rainy night indeed. Woo!!! Dont you just love it when it rains? Especially when you are indoors. Laughing at those out in the rain, poor em. Opps... I'm not dat bad, luffing at other's misery. Actually it's kinda fun walking in the rain, singing in the rain, running in the rain [yeah make sure at the right time, right place, right everything]. heh heh... Bet it's gonna be a great night snuggling beneath those lovely warm blankets. Cant wait to sleep. Hope I will have a good night's sleep later. *sigh*

Suddenly tot of a little part from Macbeth, a book I used to study for my literaure back then.

One of the 3 evil witches said:
When shall we meet again?
In thunder, lightening or in rain?

Dont you just love that?! [hmm.. no? oh well...heck] Think this has become my fav part and the only part from Macbeth that I remembered other than "Hail Macbeth". lol... Sometimes I will use this When shall we meet again thingy with my friends who studied Macbeth b4. heh heh .... crazy lass indeed

Hmm maybe it's time for a little Harry Potter b4 I sleep. *grinz* Im into the 1st few pages of chapter 12 so far. Tats 202 pages. Though progress has been slower than expected [hey I dont read this everyday n if i do i've oni abt an hr n half per day or less to read this book okay] but I shall prevail and complete reading the bk. Mark my word! Muah HahaHAhaHaaa!!!!

going crazy

Somebody out there please save me!! I'm begging you! PLEASE!!!!

I'm going crazy! My boss is driving me mad! *sobs* Can't take this anymore. I'm having bad night sleeps, nightmares, abnormal appetite, stress and stress and stress! This's affecting my mood and my normal being. I'm so unhappy.

Why is it just so hard to knock some senses into my boss's head that I'm not a programming genius, I dunno anything abt programming. Simple html yeh I noe, but wat he wans me to noe is really riduculous. I'm oni a diploma holder for designing not programming. *knock knock* Wonder wats wrong with his head man! It's not tat i dun wanna learn, who doesnt? But he's bobming me with every different kinds of things that he wanna make it work [usually involves programming stuffs] for the projects all at one time. I'm really lost. Dunno where to start. even tried researching at those free scripts site, but i haf no hell of an idea wats gonna work n wats not gonna work for the kinda thing im suppose to work on with the scripts from those site. What asp, jsp, js, php, cgi, cfm..... there's so many diff kinds of programming language! DAMN! How am I to noe which is best for the projects.Oh man! Though my boss doesnt know much programming [mayb just 35% more than me?], yet he oways like to make it sound as if its like childs play to get the stuffs working. How I wish I can skin him alive man! ARGH!!!!!!!!! I M SO MAD!!!! He is him while I am me, I m not him nor is he me! How can he presume tat I can make myself pick up a few programming trick here n there like the speed of light when I dont even have any passion for something I dont like [i.e. programming]?!

Tried getting advice from some programmer frens of mine, they will try explaining to me usually what's gonna be involved to make the project work, what user login, database, admin page, etc. Yeah I noe but how to code or programme it to make it work? I dunno. So in the end I'm just as equally lost. I dunno how, in such a fix now. Sobs sobs .... can't expect me to breakdown in front of my boss rite? and cry like a baby saying I DONT KNOW HOW?! Go eat your own shit! Clear your own shit and leave me alone!

SIGH! I'm not very good at expressing myself, especially in such fix. No matter how hard I tried reasoning back with my boss, he oways has better reasons to bite my words back. ARGH! Y is it just so hard to make both parties see the light on both sides?!

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

After waiting for a month or so, it's finally my turn to collect the long awaited book i've reserved from the library. My library card omost couldn't work this morning, the bar code reader the librarian was using couldn't read my library card. Think there's something wrong with that bar code reader she's using. What luck man. Then when I found out the book borrowed was actually the children's version, somehow I didn't seem as enthusiastic as I first started out to be. I very much preferred the adult version.... hmm .. nevermind. *sigh* What luck man. Too bad the library never stock up the adult version. Wonder if there's any diff between the 2 version? Other than the cover illustrations diff, there better be no other. Nevertheless it's the story i'm out for not the covers. yeah .... as if, like real! I can be such a fussy-pot at times. Damn!

@ work today, my 1st print job finally got back from its color seperation job, kinda depressing man! The colors .... *double sigh* ... oh well... *triple sigh*. nevermind abt the colors, what's sad is there's a mistake in one of the pages! ARGH!!! Y was I so careless?!!!! Now cause company to loose $ just to re-send it for another color seperation job. What luck man.

Okay back to my harry potter now. I've managed 3 chapters b4 this. 3 chapters down 35 more ta go; 57 pages down 709 more ta go. Hmm lets do a simple calculation.... lets say if I manage to read abt 38 pages in an hr jus now, so it will take me roughly 18.66hr to finish the whole book, which means I should be able to finish reading it within 2 days if there's nothing else stopping me from it?! haha.... crazy me~

Okie pokie.... back to reading harry potter business time~ will keep bloggie updated with my progress if possi~

Birthday~

It's my godsis's birthday today. Gonna meet up with her tonight after work with 2 other frens. Time really flies. Known my godsis since secondary school. We've been thru alot together, but due to my recent new commitments with blading & vball we both hardly get to hang out as much. Wanna take this chance here to wish her a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Godsis & friends forever~

*HUGZ & MUACKZ* Thanks for being there for me!

Zhu ni sheng ri kuai le

White Flag by Dido

Love this song the moment I heard it a few weeks back. It's growing on me the more I hear it. haa.. I love the starting part best!!! The music's so nice!!! Still trying to make myself fall for the chorus [hmm is this how u spell it?] part though.

White Flag

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
I'll tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused but nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was then
Will be there still I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

Pig's trotter

Damn! My right foot is still swelling from that ant's bites [2 in total, 1 big 1 small] since sunday. Looks like a pig's trotter. The past 2 days were terrible. My foot itch like hell and swells like mad, pain itch pain. At least its not so bad today, but you can still tell the diff between my left and right foot. HA! pig's trotter

Does anyone else out there has such an "allergy" to ant bites? Or is it just me? Even my mum n brother say they dont have such a sight from ant bites.

Ants II~

I got bitten by an ant last night at Sentosa [v-ball routine as usual]! Hmm.. Think a red ant is more hostile than a black ant . So make that a red ant! It bit me! The cruel ant bite me on my right foot! Evil ant ! Damn ant !

Whenever an ant bites me, the bite and area surrounding it definately will begin to itch badly b4 it starts swelling up into a terrible shape. Oh man, now my right foot looks like a pig's leg. Totally swollen and is painful though a lil itchy. Even my left thumb hurts too, swollen as well. Hurt it when I collided into my friend when we were trying to hit the volleyball during a game. *ouch*

Had probs trying to pull my jeans on today. If not for my swollen foot I would have worn a skirt instead, at least it's easier visiting the toilet with that. haha....

Nevertheless it had been a fun day.

The Quest for the Traveling Sandals

The Quest for the Traveling Sandals

Chapter I
Saturday, 16 August 2003

Gloomy clouds cast upon the pale morning sky. This is not good, for rain shall descend upon earth on such a dark windy Saturday. I packed my journey bag and set off on The Quest for the Traveling Sandals! As arranged I met my other companion, Lisi, at Outrum. There, we both begin on this quest together.

---

Chapter II
IKEA

Food! That's what raced through out minds as we set foot upon the bustling Swedish village, Ikea. Quickly we identify the inn [tavern], found ourselves an empty table.

Large plate of meatballs, chicken wings, chicken nuggets with fries [kid's meal], spaghetti [kid's meal] accompanied with chocolate almond pie to complete the meal. They didn't served ale, we substitute it with coffee instead. What a scrumptious meal indeed. I believe it will keep us full through the remaining journey in the quest.

After the hearty branch [breakfast + lunch], we practically dragged our bodies around the village. Seeing that there's nothing here that could aid our quest, we journeyed on. I grabbed an ice cream cone on our way out of the village.

---

Chapter III
Queensway Shopping Centre

Another busy sight in this next village [in the same town]. Young kids scampering about. Traders haggling with the merchants. Yes, this was the place, the place where we shall fulfill our quest. The Quest for the Traveling Sandals!

We explored the village, poking our heads into any possible place in search for the pair of sandals. But to no avail. My companion gotten a traveling bag though.

Just as we were about to give up the search, we came across a shop. Bedazzled by the jewelry, we couldn't help lay our hands on a piece each. Mine had a silver [10 cent ??], copper [1 cent ??] and gold [5 cent ??] plain, circular metal pieces strung up together [earring]. Then we moved on to our next destination in hope of finding the perfect traveling sandals.

Chapter IV
Camper's Corner
11 Stamford Road #01-13 Capitol Building

Cool air brushed past our faces as we entered. It was quiet and peaceful. A sense of serenity, as compared to the previous villages. Here's our last chance of finding the perfect traveling sandals! Not long after, we came across a shelf lay with rows of sandals! Yes! This was it! We finally found what we've been searching for! With eagerness we got one lady to help us with our choice. We slipped our feet in, it felt very comfy. Great. Great pair of sandals for any kind of traveling. My companion manage to get her pair in the right size and color, whereas the color I so very much wanted wasn't available in my size. What a disappointment. But fret not, for a cap hanging on another shelf soon caught my attention. It was love at first sight! I tried it on, love the sage green/citrus color of it. It felt good and comfortable on me, it looked good on me. That's it, this I had to get!

We made our way to the counter, purchased our catch, left the village with smiles across our faces. The guy behind the counter was helpful [gave me a membership even though I didn't qualify for one, so shhh...] and pretty cute too [*blush* haha...].

Quest Accomplished!

Chapter V
City Hall

Seeing that there's time left, me and my companion paid a nearby city a visit. It's been a long time since I traveled out into the city. There's so many things and stuffs to see, eat, buy. I couldn't contain my excitement, I felt like a little kid again [hmm... did I?]. I spotted a few items [a sorta winter jacket, $99, from Mango; a pair of bottoms, $100+, from Warehouse; a waist pouch, $84, &; sling bag, $149, both from Blood Brothers Project Shop] I so very much would have like to possess, to own! But being a practical poor broke lass I could only leave them all behind. [Due to financial issues, guess I will just have to live with the "buy-what-you-need-and-pay-what-you-can-afford& policy.]

---

Chapter VI
New Park Hotel

Reaped in joy, my companion headed home after our last destination at City Hall. Before I continue journeying, my new companions [mum, dad, brother, auntie, cousin] joined me. Together we set off in search of another quest! The Quest for a Good Dinner. What an exciting day this was! So many quests to fulfill!

Seated around the round table, surrounded by the aroma of fancy food [Japanese buffet], our salivary glands started working. We hurried about the inn, getting our hands on the food. Food galore, from tempura to suki yaki to sushi to sashimi to soba to salad to fruits to cakes to jelly to ice cream.

---

Chapter VII
Mustafa Centre

Bloated with dinner, we headed down to a nearby village for a brisk stroll. Little did we know what we were in for.The place was cramped and crowded, filled with goods and people. What a sight to behold. We found some stuffs and popped them into our shopping baskets. I walked around and stumbled upon a whole lot of shelves containing boxes/ bottles of perfume. You couldn't imagine how ecstatic I was by such a sight. Lucky for me, I managed to convince my father to get me one of the perfumes as a gift since I had only one bottle left back home [erm actually 2, erm.. make that 3. No! 4,erm... ShHhh!!! But I only use 1 okay].

It wasn't getting any early, so we all headed home satisfied with our own bargains for the day.

Quest Accomplished!

Death

My colleague just announced a piece of sad news to us. Her hair stylist met with an accident this wed, unfortunately the bang wasnt light, one of his arms flew off [*ouch*]. The doctors tried to save him, but he couldnt pull it thru in the end. She only found out about this last nite thru her stylist's frens and went for the wake. All of us in the office are surprised and sad upon hearing this. Some of my colleagues have even seen him and let him style their hair b4. They say he's still pretty young. What a pity for such a talent. *Sigh*

Life is really short. You never know when will you be next. *sigh*

Live life to its fullest! Just do it! [NIKE? heh heh...] Try to achive your dreams while you still can. Life can be beautiful if you make full use of it! Always look on the bright side of Life! [hmm... NIKE again?]

Ants~

Hmmm ....... wonder y do i keep seeing black little ants on my table? I didnt eat anything at my desk. No sweet stuffs too. I see 1 ant I kill 1 ant, I see 2 ants I kill 2 ants, I see 3 ants I kill 3 ants, and so on and so forth.. Think I've killed abt 10 ants or so since just now. I believe that more blood will be spilled in this battle against the ants!!! [hmmm... ant's blood? hmmm....]

I looked up to the ceiling, everything's fine.. no ants up there. Then where on earth did these ants come from since they didnt parachute down from the ceiling?!

I looked across my table, everything's fine ... no food residue. Then what on earth attracted these ants to my place?!

I wonder why I wonder how... I wish I could I wish I might find out why...

Damn! These ants are disturbing my concentration at work. Think i better go clean up my table 1st just in case.... KILL KILL KILL!!!! *sinister laughters*

What a Dream!

Had a sorta weird dream this morning. Something nice for a change from my nightmares.

I dreamt that i went on a date with some guy accidentally or something like that. I din know this guy very well, he's kinda like a new friend made. It's suppose to be a group outing with my friends overseas. But when they havent turn up yet at the place. Thus me n this guy went ahead with the booking and checking in to a hotel room 1st. Think when i called up one of my girl friends to inform her, she was shocked we booked a room together. hahaa....

While waiting for the rest to come, this guy n I went for a lil stroll around the area. Innocent romance I must say. *lol* Well.... we din do anything much other than walking and talking. [boring ?] I can't remember how the guy looks like, but at least he's taller than me. Woo .. the feeling was so nice, walking beside him, felt such a great sense of security. I can still remember that wonderful feeling now. MmMmmm Mmm..... haha... While stopping to admire the beautiful scenery, our bodies were so close to each other till I can hear his heart beat.

But good things dont last long, the next min I was woken up by my mum for work. Oh well ..... wonder what's this dream suppose to mean. Anyone knows how to crack the meaning of this dream? *grinz*

baby & lunch

Went to the hospital with my colleagues to visit my boss n his wife n new born son. The baby is so adorable!!!! Aww..... he's got a lil dimple on left when he smiles. So sweet.. hahaha... ^_^ He's still so tiny and soft, we all din dare to carry him in our arms for fear of hurting him. When he's stronger, will try carry him again if theres a chance.

After the visit, we went to my colleague's fren's western food stall to tabao food back to the office to eat. I had mixed grill [steak, chick chop, lamb chop, grill fish] with salad n french fries, 2 donuts for desert. Sinful! But yummy! ^_^

A New Baby Earthling has arrived

Just recieved a sms not long ago from one of my bosses. His son has a new baby brother as of today! So happy for them. keke... Guess my colleagues & I will be going down to the hospital to visit the new member in my boss's family tomorrow. keke... Babies are so cute! ^_^ Smooth Soft Silky Skin....Tiny feet, Tiny hands, Tiny body, Tiny ..... Erm okie .. everything's so tiny. How adorable. Hahaha....

What a coincident, it happens to be one of my friend's [Bryan] b-day today as well. Happy Birthday!

Oh yeah, oso saw 2 of my ex-course mates just now during lunch time. What a coincident. Dont really know them well, din really stopped each other for any chats, its more of like a hi-bye suitation. heh heh... I think IT's COINCIDENT DAY TODAY! hahaha...

I feel like a snake

Oh man, 1st sign of skin peeling this morning when I saw my face in the mirror. Too much sun is bad even though it gives Vit. D for healthy bones.

Monday Morning

Had me driving lessons early this morning. Omost had a minor accident, missed kissing a van's big butt by merely an inch! Am still as lousy but showed some improvement with my feet coordination [after 10 months.....hahaha] at least. Ganbatte! Okay

Supa Super Sunday

Went with my brother and cousin to catch 2 movies in a row on Sunday! "Daddy Day Care" & "Home Run. Both shows were not bad, pretty nice, funny too. Will give em each a 6 outta 10! Went for our late lunch at Marche during the movie interval! YummY! Havent been there for food since last yr already i think [hmm is it?]....

Oh Yeah, I even saw the 2 caucasian guys [Marcus & Danny] Trixy gotta know on Saturday during our vball sessions. From a distance, I tot I found these 2 guys kinda familiar, and vice versa. We stared at each other for a few secs b4 passing by one another. I should've stopped them and get their contacts for my pal, Trixy [im not really into caucasian anyway]. hahaha.... Nevermind, if fate brings them together again, I believe they will getta meet on the vball court again! hmm ... macham writing some story. *lol*

I even bumped into my ex-sec-sch-classmate in the MRT too while on the way to catch the movies. Caught up with each other and found out how each other & a few other ex-classmates were doing. Hope our class will have a gathering soon. Wonder how the rest have been all these years. Only manage to be in contact still with just a few friends since we left secondary sch. How I miss those days! *sigh* We were so innocent and carefree back then. heh heh ... >_<

What a day... what a day...
1 brother + 1 cousin = 2 people,
Daddy Day Care + Home Run = 2 movies,
Marcus + Danny = 2 guys,
Rosti with twin pork cheese sausages + Crepe with banana & ice cream [@ Marche] = 2 dishes [even the sausage is comes in a pair, which is a 2!!!]

WOW! POWER! it's 2-day on a Sunday! hahaha... 2's my fav num! ^_^

Super HOT HOT HOT Saturday

Went Sentosa on Saturday. Being a public holiday [ Singapore's b-day], we all decided to get to Sentosa earlier than usual. Instead most of us were late.. i'm not gonna say who were the late comers. hahaha... poor early birds! Boy, it sure was packed that day. But we din expect the crowd playing vball to be lesser than usual. Lucky us then, for we manage to play on the courts most of the time. In the 1st few matches we played with the gang we saw & played with the week b4. Overall thru out the day we manage to win a few matches. YIPPY!!! But i din contribute much, stood there in the court like a vase as usual.... think my mates are gonna kick my ass the nxt time if i dont buck up and show any improvement! SORRY PEOPLE!!! keke....

It was scorching hot too tat day! Some of us were pretty burnt, NOW MY FACE IS AS RED AS A BABOON'S ASS MAN!

We played till dusk, some of us din feel like leaving yet since we hardly get a chance to play vball on a Saturday, wanted to stay a lil later than usual. So some of us went for a dip in the sea. Shiok! Even tried playing "water-polo" in the sea. In the end Lisi & I ended up being the monkeys trying to catch the vball. The guys bully us gals! haha.... But we had our revenge!!! Splash sea water at em! even attempted throwing sand at them! But it was a 3 guys against 2 gals suitation! The guys gang up and pin us down! Practically throwing water at us! We din have time to counter attack! How unfair! Bully us! haha... then seeing Trixy roaming along the beach, very near us... heh heh naturally she became our next prey. The guys all ran after her, grabbed hold of her, carried her and SLAMMED her into the sea! WooOoo HooOo..... U shld have seen her running with all her might after the guys one by one. *lol* So fun! Hell lotsa fun! But hell were we tired after the whole ordeal... haha

Pity we hafta give the fireworks a miss! *sigh*

Secret to a happy marriage

A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary. Their domestic tranquillity had long been the talk of the town. "What a peaceful & loving couple". A local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their long and happy marriage.

"Well, it dates back to our honeymoon,"explained the man. "We visited the Grand Canyon and took a trip down to the bottom of the canyon by horse.

We hadn't gone too far when my wife's horse stumbled. My wife quietly said, 'That's once.'

"We proceeded a little further and the horse stumbled again. Once more my wife quietly said,'That's twice.'

"We hadn't gone a half-mile when the horse stumbled the third time. My wife quietly removed a revolver from her purse and shot the horse dead.

"I started an angry protest over her treatment of the horse, when she looked at me, and quietly said,'That's once'.

"And we lived happily ever after".

Fowl joke

I made a BIGGEST JOKE last night man! Made my mum laugh until this morning man! HAHAHA!!!!!

---

SCENE 1 ACT 1:
In the living room...

me: mummy, only you have the answer to my very important que!

mum: *laughs* You go find out yourself!

me: Tell me leh tell me leh! So what's for dinner?! What's the answer?!

mum: Your aunt cooked some herbal chicken and brought it over just now. There's veggies too. Go look for them in the kitchen.

---

SCENE 2 ACT 1:
In the kitchen

I saw 2 pots on the stove, 1 big 1 medium. I opened both pots.

Pot 1 - had a piece of meat that looks tender and cooked.
Pot 2 - had a few pieces of meat.

Thinking that Pot 1 was the one my grandpapa used to cook the meat, I left it alone. Hence I chose a BIG piece of drumstick with the thigh attached from Pot 2 instead. Yummy-licious-looking!

---

SCENE 3 ACT 1:
Back in the living room. Settled back down beside my mum on the sofa eating my dinner [rice with chicken meat and some veggies]. Having some difficulties chewing the meat. Looked at my mum. Me feeling puzzled.

me: Funny, how come the meat so hard one? I cant tear it apart! It's so tasteless!

mum: Cannot be ah. the piece your brother had earlier on is very soft and tender. How come the piece you took is so hard?

me: Dont know leh. Then I shove the BIG piece of meat towards my mum and got her to give it a poke to prove that its real hard.

mum: hmmm ... nevermind. You go put it into the pot , will cook it again.

---

SCENE 4 ACT 1:
Walk back to the kitchen, lift up Pot 2's cover and place the drumstick back. Looked ard the pot and fish out the other pieces and gave them a slight poke each.

me [in tots]: Hmm... weird, how come all so tough meat one? Tot mummy said the piece my bro had was soft, y aint the rest soft?

Then I fish out the weirdest piece of chicken wing I had ever seen. This piece was all long and slender and thin, how unlike the normal short and stout ones.

---

SCENE 5 ACT 1:
Thinking nothing about it, I resumed eating my veggie and rice in the living room.

SCENE 5 ACT 2:
Moments later, mum took Pot 1 out and dish out the chicken onto my plate.

mum: See how soft the meat is! How come you said it's hard cannot eat?

me: HUH?! You mean it's this pot? I tot the meat in this pot is Ah Gong [grandpapa] cook one!

mum: Huh? What? Then where did you take the previous piece of meat from?

me: The other bigger pot lor! Tot you oways use that other pot for your cooking one?

mum: HAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!! [laughs non stop for a min at least. Erm.. think so]

me: What what?!! What what?!! How come you keep laughing?! Mummy!!! Tell me! Dont keep lauging leh!

mum [trying hard not to laugh]: Aiyoh ah! The other pot is DUCK meat! It's not totally cooked! HahaHAHaa!!!! I still have to continue cooking it tomorrow. Tonight just wanted to cook them a bit to drain the oil out from the meat, if not it will be very oily. Aiyo ah .... you ah! Hahahahaaa!!!

me: Alamak! HAhaHAhAhaaa! No wonder I found the "chicken wing" so weird looking. I din realise it! HAhahaa ... blur ah me! Eat so many times yet still .. Hahahahaa!!!!

Oh man! What an experience! Joke of the Day! I wonder how come I can be so BLUR! BLUR LIKE SOTONG!

NDP 2003 Logo

Isnt it nice? ^_^ Anyone notice the cresent and 5 stars in the logo? The flag? The shape of Singapore? I didnt really notice the cresent and stars, not until my colleague told me abt how she didnt really liked the way the figures seemed to be joined together around the 5 stars area. They are meant to looked as if they are holding hands, but then..... Anyway I find the logo nice still. How abt you?

Singapore Flag

For the past few days as I was walking from my block to the bus stop every morning, I can't help but notice that not many families choose to hang the Singapore flag out in celebration of Singapore's bday this coming Sat. Maybe it just applies to the area I'm living in. I'm not sure for the other areas. Kinda sad eh, people not hanging out the flag.

So why do we hafta hang the flag out when the nation's b-day is drawing near? Other than a form of celebration what else? Anyone? [sounds as if I'm such a mountain tortoise, think even pri sch kids are more intelligent]

City of God

Yesterday, after much hesitation, I left work at 6.15pm and made my way down to Cineleisure to catch the movie, City of God ^_^ Reached the cinema within 30mins. Show was @ 7.20pm. Response to the movie was great, omost full house except for the 1st 2 rows and 3 individual seats scattered about. I manage to grab a tic for a seat at the back corner. Lucky me, if not I will have a neck pain after the show.

GOOD choice and yet BAD choice made to watch the movie last night I tell ya. Why?
Here's why:

Good Choice

• GREAT Movie
• FANTASTIC Movie
• Based on a true story!
• The way the story was told and shot was awesome. Simple but nice and captivating, leaving a strong impression in your heart.
• Nice touch of humour too against all the brutal violence

Bad Choice

• Chose a wrong day to watch it. Butt injury not recovered due to the fall-down-incidents on Sunday when @ play
• Keep tossing & turning too much due to butt's pain, less concentration on the screen
• 2hrs after the show my butt hurts even more. Damn! Butt hurts when I try to fart & shit! Erm.. I dont mean I tried doing that in the show. *grinz*
• Okay okie, so the BAD choice's all revolving abt how pain my butt was [and still is today]! HAha HAha!

Beach Volley Ball & Soccer

Okay on to something happier other than work. ^_^

Had a great day yesterday. Went with my gang of friends to play beach volleyball. Pity we didnt get to use the courts much yesterday until towards the later end of the day. Otherwise we formed a big circle and practise instead, how boring but nevertheless still fun. But we did manage to WIN once in the court yesterday! FINALLY OUR 1ST WIN!!! HIP HIP HOORAY! x 3!!! But I din get to hit or score much, stood there like a vase, think I hit better when we are in a big circle rather than in the court. Hahaha... looser!!!! Must brush up my skills more! Yey!

We played beach soccer too. Hell lots of running! Tiring! I really admire those professional soccer players. 90mins in the field so big, all running and chasing and kicking after one ball. haha.... hmmm is it 90mins? 45? 60? hmmm..... When I was trying to be the goal keeper, i manage to save a goal but hurt me little index finger instead. Hit the goal post when trying to block the goal. *OUCH* BLOOD!!! Damn! Should have worn some gloves or something man.

When out acting as a defender on the sandy field, I fell on my butt a few times too. hahaha.... Guess this goes to show I'm very accident prone! I have so many scars already! The guys say I'm very violent. Oways kick their legs instead of the ball. Oops... hahahahaha ... hell lots of fun we all had! Now my butt hutrs like hell too! >_<

Busy morning

Phew... What a busy morning I had. Didnt get to eat my lunch until 3pm man. Had to rush a mock up brochure design for a client to view by 2pm today. And I din expect to overshoot the timing and ended up getting scolded by the client. Lucky thing was it wasnt me who got the scolding, it's me lady boss. Damn! Bad luck! >_<

It's my 1st print project where I get to do the design and layout and stuffs. I'm too used to doing web design until I'm so lousy with the grid and stuffs for print. So In the end I anyhow place the photos about. Heck care the grid. hahaha..... Web design has somewhat made me too rigid & stiff in my design, cos I only have a 800 x 600 pixel space to play with the design... erm okie.. guess sort of. *grinz* I dunno what's talking me man!

AwWw.... Most of the times I wanted to type short blogs, but I always end up telling long old granny stories... like this post! heh heh .... *hammers own self"

Even if that temptation was "just" a drunken kiss.
Bring your sweetie around more often, and you won't have to get flirty with others.

Dino [amazed]: That's a very good answer ya know.
[pauses] Remember the life cycle of the mosquito?

Me: Larva!

So we went on talking abt the female and male mosquitos stuffs. blah blah....

Me: If female mosquitos suck blood, then what about the male mosquitos?

Dino [excitedly]: They suck from the female mosquitos!

Everyone: HA ha Ha Ha haHa HAa HA ha...

Bel [trying hard to figure out something]: Think I've come across this que b4. Argh ... why cant I remember?!

Me [trying to act clever]: Maybe the female mosquitos suck blood from humans & male mosquitos suck blood from animals instead?

June: Then the mosquitos who live in the jungle how? Where are the females gonna find humans?

Bel [giggling]: WOW! The mosquitos can differentiate humans from animals eh!

Dino [teasing]: haha.. they gotta look under before they decide, then suck? haha....

June [adding oil to fire]: The mosquitos so clever, will know if its human or animal.. winner! haha ....

Everyone [laughing like mad]: HA ha Ha Ha haHa HAa HA ha...

Bel: You know what's the power of internet?
