Sigh

1. I think bathing is my favorite time now. Because its the only time I listen to musics I like with little worries.
2. The level of difficulties of my school work is escalating at an exponential rate. I want to kill myself.
3. I was so hopeful that there are two calculation modules this semester and they will help to pull my GPA up.
Then who knows,
Accounting is now difficult to understand.
FM has always been very alien to me.
IT sucks.
BizLaw is difficult to write.
Comms Fund is ...
4. I wonder if I am the only one thinking this way
5. Besides school, I spend my time sleeping, napping, giving tuition and and on school work. With these little activities, I think I have no time to fully study for my modules.
So I wonder how people go for their sports training, go for dating, go out all the time and still manage their studies so damn well!
I want their brains and study method!

Sizzling Hot!

Showed Kayne and Mervyn my wallpaper and they say its only a candid photo, what is so handsome about him.

I tell you what is so handsome about T.O.P:
1. His killer eyes,
2. His well defined jawline.
3. Bleached hair!
4. His neck and the veins on his neck!
5. His ear plug and earrings
6. His deep voice
7. The way he hold his microphone

Hello

I bought two of each design cause I couldn't decide which I like more. And my sis likes the rainbow one. So I just Facebook messaged Uyen to help me get one more of it! Hopefully there is still stock!

These are gifts I received on Valentines' Day itself.

I made these but gave out even more cause when I reached the lecture hall, I decided I wanted to give Kenneth, Yanhan, Jinhao and Eddy as well.

I asked Yanhan help me take a photo of Kenneth and my toy from kinder surprise. LOL. But Phuong has them all with her. Yeah, I gave the kinder surprise to Kenneth and Yanhan as well!

Took many polaroids the day we went to send Tangge off.

Tannge!! Aiyo, I don't know why this photo appears so small again.

We all each have a Hello Kitty polaroid camera! I love this photo!

I SUPER love my shoes! I love the ribbons on it!

My (crazy) BFFs

Took this the day I went to school to study for accounting test!

1. Downloaded lots of Bigbang and 2NE1 videos into my phone and watched them for half an hour, delayed my sleep and as a result, I overslept today.

2. Comms Fund presentation was.. better than the other time but still not good. I had a long pause in the middle cause I couldn't recall my speech. LOL.

Kayne and Warrick are really good at their speeches!

3. I also had BizLaw's presentation. We didn't know it was going to be graded and anyhow did it. The teacher say he wanted to give us A- but its still early so he will put a B+ first and see how the others do. Hmmm. I guess we will be getting B+ in the end after all.

4. Accounting presentation was silly. I just read all the journal entries out. Yay!

5. Hmmm. Tutor said class average is 16 for the test part I. I hope I get 19/20. I know I got one of the MCQs wrong but cannot remember if I wrote 'Treasury Shares' or 'Share Capital'. I think I wrote the latter. Sigh. Thats like another one mark gone. Sigh sigh sigh.

6. Long weekend ahead cause it is e-learning week for FM! YAY!

7. There is no test next week! YAY! Next week is a peaceful week for me but we will be celebrating Kayne's birthday on Wednesday I think.

2012-02-11T11:57:00.002+08:00

Two minutes blogging

1. It is now 1158Hr. I am in school revising for my accounting quiz on Monday.
2. I love accounting! It is very interesting. I love it more than last semester's statistic.
3. For the previous semester, I scored A- for both the subjects I loved and very bad Bs for the others.
4. This place is super cold!
5. Got to go print some notes and worksheets at FAL later.
6. It's 1200Hr now. Goodbye!

CNY Steamboat at CCK! :)

Sure must take photo with the big and nice flowers decoration.

I wore everything I bought from Suntec City! :)

I have extra hands. I wish.

Lo-Hei, my favorite CNY goodie!

Irene made these for us. Good idea for valentine gift! :)

Huimin bought this for me. :))

1. How sad now that CNY is almost over!

2. I... feel like cutting my hair slightly shorter.

2012-02-04T01:15:00.001+08:00

Update:

Being a responsible project mate, I have dutifully drafted the proposal and sent my group mates the copy. :)

2012-02-04T00:04:00.003+08:00

I Love Today! :))

I made a reservation at Fish&Co. for the seven of us. Eight of us, including Uyen (who decided to join us last minute), went for the lunch! It was good lunch good service and super cheap! It costs the eight of us a total of $55 only! It is like a mini farewell for Yihong who is going China for no-one-not-even-Yihong-knows-how-long.

Then Yihong sent us to Telok Blangah MRT (We were supposed to go to Queenstown MRT but somehow somewhat we got to Telok Blangah in the end). We took MRT with Kayne and Mervyn and went to town. We shopped around Marina Square, City Link and Suntec City! I bought a pair of pretty shorts and a pretty top from Newlook! The pair of shorts costs me $36.90 and the top only $19.90! YAY! Very good to shop with Phuong and Weishan! Talked to them quite a bit and found out that Phuong got attached not too long ago! :)

That's TeoLiang and the guys at the dessert shop where we ordered a huge cup of ice cream with fruits in it. :)

1. I had a super great day today!

2. Hmmm, shall I wake up and do the IT proposal tomorrow morning instead of now? I promised Kayne and Mervyn that I will do it by tonight. Hmm. '

3. Weishan and I were telling Phuong how worried we are that we will be 'single for life' and Phuong replied that the right one will eventually come. Hmmm..

2012-01-31T19:37:00.004+08:00

Happy 20th Birthday, BFF!

While waiting for time to pass, we had the CanonG12 camera as our best companion.

Myself with two of my favorite cards I made for Sl.

We went to RiverHongBao after dinner!

Tired!

Monkey Zodiac!

CanonG12 super good at capturing good complexion, provided that there is good lighting! Or maybe it was because we didn't really know how to operate the camera.

BFFs!

The cake that Bel and I decorated and it ended up looking quite messy. But we had a great deal of fun transforming it.

Made this for Sl!

Cropped the photo.

We took many polaroids that day!

1. My sister bought me the HelloKitty polaroid camera. It's intended for my birthday but since she will be buying it later, why not own it sooner?

So I went to JP to look for it at Toy Outpost and had complimentary plain films. I bought additional Rainbow, Miffy and Hello Kitty films.

I want to buy the WinniethePooh one as well!

2012-01-25T22:16:00.009+08:00

1. Repainted my nails pink with polka dots cause the red looked too old on me.
2. We should have longer CNY holiday.
3. I feel that the CNY this year has passed by too quickly.
4. Mervyn and Kayne were very nice in IT class today;
I have not spoken anything for class participation since lesson one and am very worried about it. So during class today, they both gave me answers to the professor's question so I can answer and get score some points. :)
(But still, I didn't managed to answer anything in the end.)
5. There is an opportunity to volunteer in Vietnam with NTU's WSC. Should I go? I want to, but the interview is like at 7.30 tomorrow, super late and super sian.
6. Happy for Terrence cause he finally managed to get into Medicine. It's like a super long course cause he intends to take what intercalated PhD as well.
And that means he is going to London (!!!) for eight long years, super ultra long!!
But, I finally have a friend who is a doctor!!!!!!! And I think he is interested in becoming a Neurologist.
And now I understand why he came online only at 4plus in the morning (Singapore time); he was in London for the Medicine interview.

7. How come Malaysia can have CNY holiday that lasts for a week. :((
8. I think my neck lost some fats. :)
9. Kelly and her boyfriend broke up because his mum found her too short. What a reason. I think I can accept it if a mum say the girlfriend is fat but short as a reason? Uh, I can only say he missed out a great girl. Kelly is so cute so petite and sweet looking.
Mummy's boy are not marry-able.
10. I think I am becoming sick soon.
11. I had runny nose in class today and TeoLiang asked if I was okay. It made me think of how MingRuey went '你... Okay吗？’ last time in secondary school when I sat with him in class.

2012-01-25T17:42:00.005+08:00

CNY in Malaysia! :))

Wendy and me!! Super like Wendy cause she is so princess-y and cute!

Us with a long string of firecracker!

Wendy suggested to bring us to the dam, very pretty!

And my dad's car. The photo looks better with the car plate number.

孔明灯s in the sky.

And that's me with the 孔明灯. 步步高升 because that's the closet to improving my grades and also improving my life!

Wendy and hers.

Us in supermarket!

We took the above two photos in ParkCity.

Lights in the background too bright!

We sat on the UFO swing!

LionDance!

Vincent with super huge watermelon!

Hokkien Mee!

Familiar store selling all these! Love it!

1. Wendy is super cute! Wish that she can come Singapore soon!
2. Wendy's mum used to work as a secretary for Wendy's dad and that's how they met and soon get married. Her dad is very charismatic and they are a very American family. Envious.
3. Actually I wonder how people take photos of themselves kissing their partners. Like, 'Hey, you kiss me and you pause yourself in that position cause I want to snap a shot of it (and upload onto Facebook)'? Weird.
4. Dislike whine-y guys.
5. I should stop whining as well, cause it is very irritating.

2012-01-22T23:00:00.008+08:00

Happy CNY 2012! :))

Love all the hongbaos my dad has been giving me every year, super ultra nice!

My sis' phone is really good at taking pretty photos!

Polaroid with Kelly and Jessie!

I think I look very pretty here, like my hair color, my contact lens' color and everything else.

I am very pretty here too!

I have a lot of photos which I find myself very pretty in!

Lo-hei!

Lots of food!

This is so pretty!

This too!

I only managed to take photos of all the desserts!

1. My contact lens went to the back of eyelids again! I thought I was going blind! And I had a lot of difficulty in removing the lens.

2. Going KL tomorrow, sigh. Regret, lots of work to clear and I am super ultra tired.

2012-01-22T03:38:00.002+08:00

1. I think I really hate FM; see how many times I can blog while reading the textbook.
2. Now I understand the predicament of a student who doesn't like to study or is forced to study a subject he has no interest in.
3. I, for one, have completely no interest in finance management and all the things they talk about bore me to death. I take exceptionally long to cover a topic and when I am done, I feel like I haven't read it yet. Sigh.
4. How to survive FM?

2012-01-22T03:14:00.004+08:00

If you are not sure you made the right decisions...

Four paragraphs that made an impression on me:

Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.

When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

2012-01-21T23:10:00.003+08:00

1. Hate it when my back hurts when there is a lot of tutorials to do.
2. Contemplating whether or not to buy 2NE1's NOLZA DVD from market. I am not sure if there are two NOLZA concerts, one in Japan and one in Korea or there is only one. If there are two, I don't know which is the one I want.

Super love the videos on Youtube!

Watch this at starting from 2.00mins. The start of the song, You and I, played by ParkBom's sister using her cello is amazing!

And ParkBom in the wedding dress is a motivation for me to persist on on my diet program. Her legs are kind of opened too wide at times though. Hahaha.
I want to sit on the swing, suspended in the air, for my wedding too. LOL.

3. Super lots of work to clear
a. IT readings. Two lectures into one seminar thanks to CNY holiday. That's double the reading. Two pieces of the many additional readings are already 88pages.
b. IT textbook to read, two chapters on Software and Internet. (Super uninteresting, but the tutor is funny.)
c. IT notes
d. Accounting tutorial to complete and accounting tutorial presentation question.
e. Accounting notes
f. BizLaw's reading (Hate this because the language of law is incomprehensible!)
g. BizLaw tutorial
h. Tutorial for CommsFund
i. News article and content for CommsFund presentation
j. FM textbook reading
k. Nuzrath's FM notes and tutorials to complete
l. Accounting project readings (Super a lot of readings to do. Need to read two years of financial report on a chosen company. Hate reading financial articles!)

4. I think 2NE1 is a very sensational group.

2012-01-20T22:41:00.005+08:00

My Skilled Hands!

1. Not bad right! I have decided that I will go buy this for Jolene's present since she likes to do nail art too!
2. I will go buy the black color one as well cause I want to paint a bee on a yellow nail base. :)
3. Happy with my nails!
4. But then you have to apply the top coat first then can put the polka dots, at least for Faceshop's top coat. Maybe there is something wrong with the top coat or there must be some components in the white nail polish that go under the top coat.
5. Shall go polkadots my toe nails too!
6. My pair of hands can really do lots of handicrafts!

7. And this is my the other day when I went to the gym. Kind of looked weird with pink shorts and pink sports shoe.

2012-01-20T22:15:00.003+08:00

Weekend is finally here!

1. I took a nap to compensate my lack of sleep this week. Have been sleeping at 3+ everyday and waking up at 6plus 7.
2. I bought a liquid paper-like white nail polish painter to put polka dots on my nails. Waiting for the pink base to dry before I can put the polka dots.
3. I went to look for Ezann for a haircut today.
She is good because she cuts the fringe bit by bit and she understands what you mean by 'short'. Sometimes, some hairstylist just over cut. I was telling her don't over-cut and she said she knew that I would kill her if my fringe is too short for CNY. HAHAHA.

And she remembers me. But she thought I did my rebonding at Chapter2 too.
4. So, my FM tutorial presentation is over! 5% over! Jack (my tutor) seemed to like our presentation. He said not to call him 'professor' but it's so weird to call my tutor 'jack', like 'hey jack, for this question..'
He is quite flexible a tutor.
5. Some of my project groups decided to adopt a strategy to improve our group projects grade by making the tutor super like our group. And we do that by being enthusiastic in class.
6. TL is really nice. She cannot abandon her IT group to come join us but she say she will help us get the slides from MarkLow's class.
7. Nuzrath super nice too.
I first met her to exchange textbooks.
Then we met again cause she previously forgot to give me the FM textbook.
Subsequently, I told her I need her FM notes.
Separately we met today cause I needed her FM tutorials and tutorials answers.
Feeling extremely bad that there is no notes I can provide her since I threw them all away, I asked for her email so I can give her my individual projects. :)
Conveniently, I asked her for her IT notes too. Hehehe.

Her handwriting like SUPER neat! Hahaha. And my textbooks has SO many tabs I think she got irritated and asked if she could remove them. LOL. The tabs can really be a hassle actually.
8. So anyway, I have been hanging around with TeoLiang, Mervyn, Kayne and Uyen for quite a bit this semester so far because three of them are in most of my project groups.
This is like the perfect group!
TeoLiang and Mervyn are like SUPER SUPER smart.
Kayne is SUPER smart.
Uyen is SUPER smart also!
I am the worse in the group! Hahaha.
9. So Mervyn has been performing his magic tricks on me, cause Kayne and TeoLiang are already entertained by them in the previous semester.
Mervyn's tricks are real good, super amazing.
I love those tricks he get to manipulate my brain, super cool!!
And he reveals them and ain't hesitant about teaching the tricks!

2012-01-20T00:58:00.002+08:00

Awake but not wide awake

Reminder to myself: send Pelly the IT grouping names

1. Awake because I slept from 9+ till now.
2. Have been sleeping quite late and waking up quite early everyday and today's lectures and tutorials were very heavy.
3. Lots of readings to do over the CNY weekend. I kind of regretted going to Malaysia but maybe it's good. If I am to stay, then I need to go do house visit and I will not read my readings cause I won't feel like.
At least now I can try to clear my readings while on the road.
4. Vincent will be driving his car while my dad drive his.
5. Doubt I will get my Japan exchange trip because for the pathetic ten spots, there were like 30+ people signing first choice for it. Not to mention that that figure was the last time I checked, before the application ended. Sigh.
6. Signed up for EY tax tour.. alone. Cause Uyen wanted to go so I signed up first and when she reached home, she realized she has English test briefing so... I am going.. alone.
7. Yoga with Uyen and Weishan today was.. funny. I just don't 100% like having a male instructor.
8. Goodbye, FM presentation tomorrow. :)

2012-01-18T22:59:00.002+08:00

1. That is my schedule for January as of 18Jan2012.
2. Let me take some time to blog.
3. BIG SIGH.

Remember I talked about C and T joining my IT group? It must be my retribution now. They swapped out of the class, leaving my group with K and M.
And then J, a weird guy, came and ask if he could saying saying that his previous group was made up of exchange students and that they are here to play.
But, he is really weird. Okay, not very weird but still weird. We all didn't know how to reply him and he obviously didn't get the hint and so he sat and we formed the 'group'.

So we proceeded with the IT lesson. J asked the tutor lots of questions, questions that made me rolled my eyes in my mind.
Questions he asked me, I gave patronizing answers.

At the end of the IT lesson, I didn't bother asking for his number for contacting purposes. I went to the toilet and came back and then revealed to K that I found J weird. And actually, they found him weird and didn't really like him as well.

SIGH. The way J presented himself irritates me too.

And since we cannot get TL to join us, K asked me if I want to change index, meaning change class.
I want to stay in my current class but I want J out of my class or out of my group.

BIG BIG SIGH.

4. After a project meeting where you rehearsed the presentation you are to give, you came home to review the slides and realized that there were mistakes in the slides. Then it will dawn on you that actually all your project mates weren't exactly listening to your presentation rehearsal,
Well, this didn't happen to me but my project mate. (Nothing bad about this issue I am going to say)

So I realized that there can only be two reasons that your group mates didn't point out the mistakes.
a. They didn't pay attention because they couldn't be bothered.
b. They didn't listened because they believe and trust that you are doing the job well

And for my group, I believe that there is mutual trust amongst us. I am very very grateful and thankful for all my groupings except for IT's.

5. My nails are long and they are irritating.
6. So far so good for tuition.
I am at a stage with my tutee that for one moment, I can be stern with her (I have not scolded her for this year yet. LOL) because of her work and the next moment, she starts to talk about other things to me. I like.
7. M is really smart and good.
He is tutoring a student for $40 per hour. He then told the mum that he would like to give up the student because the traveling takes up too much of his time.
the mum didn't let him go. Instead, the mum paid him an extra $30 per session so that he can take taxi. Although the $30 is still insufficient for taxi, it says a lot about his tuition.
8. U and R very sweet together although they often quarrel because U is romantic and R is very practical. Hahaha.

2012-01-17T03:20:00.002+08:00

1. I swear I meet all the SUPER NICE people.
2. I am so depressed doing my FM work and my friend just encouraged me and I felt so touched I teared. FM is super difficult and confusing and I just don't get it and I have presentation to do this Friday. Kill me.
3. And my friend volunteers to teach me the stupid FM tutorial. Who so nice volunteer to teach the peers?

2012-01-17T02:01:00.001+08:00

When you are a small fish in a big tank...

2012-01-17T00:20:00.002+08:00

I want to die

1. I want to die from doing FM.
2. FM sucks. I can no longer recall all the geometric progression formulas and arithmetic progression.
3. I am so sleepy to do mathematical calculations.
4. One chapter and a thousand formulas.
5. No model answer to check! This is super bad.

2012-01-14T22:40:00.003+08:00

First weekend of Semester Two

1. Weishan asked me out for Kbox so I agreed for this weekend because I foresee lots of project meeting coming up real soon.
2. We went to Cineleisure's Kbox only to realize that they serve from 1400hr to 1800hr. So off we went to Scape's Kbox.
3. I saw Marcus from CWSS, one of the guys on the Nanjing exchange trip, doing some event for his polytechnic at Scape and he recognized me. I saw him once at Driving Centre long time ago.
4. Had a good time at Kbox with Weishan. LOL. I think the sound system there is better than Safra's and there was a huge sofa , albeit already torn.
But the touch screen for song request was mounted to the wall. You need to get off the sofa to get to touch the screen and that's troublesome.
5. Weishan sings quite well and she kept asking me to sing digital. No way, cause I think my voice sounds so kiddish.
6. Then we shopped around and my muscles are aching from the gym session (cause it has been super long since i last visited the gym). I walked home, in the scorching sun, from JESportsComplex too.
7. Came home and then had to leave shortly after for dinner at OCBCCentre cause it is AuntyAmy's birthday today. Sis and I bought a birthday cake for her.
8. Very tired now and I just finished changing the bed sheet. YAY! No need to wake up early to change tomorrow morning.
9. Need to do some textbook readings and then do some tutorials.
10. This coming week will be extremely hectic. I will only end school at 10pm on monday. There is tuition for my tutee on Tuesday and Wednesday. Then there is makeup lecture, lecture and yoga on thursday. FM on Friday and it's CNY!
11. Dad is going JB for massage on Tuesday and asked if I wanted to go. I want! I love getting massaged but I need to give tuition. Oh, that reminds me that I have not bought my kid's model composition book.
12. I was just thinking that it has been super long since I last had a pimple and there is pops out from my chin. Sigh.
13. Vincent applied for Seoul's national university and I applied for some Japan's university for exchange. But I highly doubt I will get it because my GPA is closer to the minimum requirement than even the average GPA. Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
14. Submitted my CV for EY's internship but I doubt I will get it too. Sighhhhhhhhhhhhh.
15. Wallace and Kiat Yao are in my CommsFund group and they are super funny! I think my CommsFund class is a small class and a cosy one. Everyone seems to get along quite well within the group.
16. Three more weeks to my first recorded presentation for CommsFund. Worried and scared! I really dislike to give presentations but I hate class participation even more.
17. I guess I am quite competent. You know why?
Cause Mervyn wants to group with me for AccountingI and FM's project. (As I have said many times) Okay, I think I need to correct this. I want to group with Mervyn but he didn't reject me. LOL.
And Brandan said 'this sem no class same as u sia'. LOL. I presume he wants to be in the same class with me cause he wants to group with me for projects. LOL.
All above are purely my assumptions, to make myself happy. HAHAHA.
18. YAY! So far so good for Semester Two! Grateful and appreciative!
19. They say FM is tough. Sighh.
20. Quite sad that Weishan is alone for all the modules except for Tuesday's lecture. Hope she gets to join Nigel for accounting! and she should be quite safe.

2012-01-12T18:20:00.004+08:00

Happy

1. Trying to update more often now, while I can, before the projects start.
2. IT project has already started.
3. I think this semester should be pretty alright because there are two tough modules (AccountingI and Financial Management), one difficult one (Business Law) and one pretty alright IT.
Other than these, the rest have no final examination though there are oral and written assessments.
4. Almost died during Communications Fundamental lesson today. The tutor was quite funny but she simply went through the slides and my entire group wanted to die because we were all so sleepy.
It is our first and only module this semester that starts at 0830hr.
5. Anyway, previously, my tutee's mum gave me my pay miscounting one session of tuition. But this time, she gave me my pay thinking that I already gave eight sessions when it was only seven sessions. So yep, I earned it back after all.
6. Need to buy model composition book for my tutee.
7. So I received M's message and it made me heaved a sigh of relief.
It went "Success! Managed to swap accounting 1! Group together, don't pungseh ar!'
YAY! And then I messaged T to inform her and told her we should sit together for AccountingI.

Then I replied M that we should be grouped together for FM as well and he said 'haha sure!'.

YAY! GOOD group mates! Happiness!

Happy because it feels great when people want to recruit/include you in their team! :))

8. I just hope that nothing happens to the grouping and that we do actually have the choice to choose our own group mates!
9. All these granted, I will be extremely thankful for all that happened for school so far!
10. As of now, both my groups for CommsFund and IT include K and the rest of the group members are good.

11. I saw Professor WayneKwan today before going for CommsFund class and he remembered me!

I suspect it's because of the one incident where he stood in front of me, asked me what would be my first concern or criteria in selecting the airline for my flight.

I just looked at him, stunned, and didn't answer anything. LOL.

And there went my class participation.

12. Class participation for this semester's module has extremely heavy weightage. It sucks because I really hate to speak in class, like 20 per cent.

I can smile if you want me to, I can present if necessary but speaking as and when in the class? It's difficult.

13. Why the Vietnam volunteer program in-charge no reply my application?!

14. Off to go for tuition!

First Day of Semester Two

I wonder why my smile is always slanted to one side, like I am smirking.

My bag is forever so heavy and these are only some of the basic necessities.

1. Not that it will change my grades, but Mervyn told me something that made me slightly happy. LOL.

During lecture break, he came and asked what grade I got for marketing. I told him A- and he said that I am the first person he asked, from Wayne Kwan's marketing class, that received this grade. He said that all the rest he asked got B+. And I asked if he asked kenneth and Brandan he said yes, and I presume he asked Yanhan as well.

So hmmm, I scored better than them?

Weird and I suspect its because my script was luckily chosen for moderation. I don't know.

Either that or my individual project essay must have been superb.

I shall go read and review and see if my script was really that good. Wahahaha.

2. I didn't have good sleep yesterday because I was thinking how to tell T that I want to be grouped with her for all my projects. I didn't at the end of the day.

And before I enter the class today, I saw M and K on one table and excitedly approached them and sat with them. Eh, M said I could sit with them and I believe K would have said that too. (HAHAHA! That guaranteed that I will be same group as them and they are nice people! YAY!)

Then there were two other vacancies, just nice for TeoLiang and her friend.

BUT then, C and T came and asked if anyone was going to sit, and the three of us were very hesitant in answering them but I replied 'Oh, uh, T is going to sit here I think.'

Sigh. So sad, they sat down eventually so T went to join B and company. So sad!

However, during break time, I already told K and T we must be grouped together and T said okay (I think I heard that, unless I was hallucinating.)

Now, we are hoping that Mervyn will be able to get to our accounting class!!

2012-01-09T23:34:00.003+08:00

1. Feeling extremely uneasy about the start of school- worried I am. Of what, I don't know.

2. I think my hair color is really nice but at the same time, I realized I didn't color some (negligible) areas.

3. Expectations from others is the greatest form of pressure in the pursuit of academic excellence. Hate it when my friends say 'I thought you will get 4 and above'.

4. Pray hard that I have Penny KS and Ivan to sit with during lectures.

5. Pray hard that I will have nice tutorial mates and good group mates.

6. I haven't print the lecture notes and another reading that is required for AccountingI. The lecturer uploaded them so late. And now my stupid sister is asleep so I cannot print with my printer. Ohmygod.

7. Extremely hate the feeling of going to school without lecture notes.

8. Hate it that I have to FAL to print the notes AND then climb that super long flight of stairs and walk some distance before reaching my lecture theatre. This is why I hate printing lecture notes before lectures in school. Kill me!

9. I will have to reach school by 8.30 if I want to print notes and finish the reading and have lots of times to slowly make my way to lecture hall. Sigh.

10. So if I need to reach school by 8.30, how to I boil my fish ball and crabmeat in the morning tomorrow?

2012-01-09T10:45:00.004+08:00

Liese Bubble Foam Dye

1. I have been wanting to try Liese's bubble foam dye for a long time and decided that today is the day.

2. My scalp was originally quite weak. Whenever I visit the Salon and they blow dry my hair, my scalp will hurt if they have the hair dryer over one spot for like a second. It must be constantly moved over my head so that my scalp won't be burnt.

This Liese's bubble foam dye did hurt the scalp a little, like very minimal.

The hair is dry after dyeing, the same hair texture you get after bathing after a swim.

But the application is really easy. The color is accurate. And the color is nice!

3. Will I try again? Hmmm, at the moment it's a no because of the dryness of the hair and the stinging it brings to the scalp.

4. Called TheTerrace to check on my reservation email for CNY Reunion Dinner and they say they will send it today.

I will call and scream at them if they don't because it has been delayed and delayed many many times. I feel like killing them.

I am just afraid that if this fails, I may not be able to make another reservation elsewhere.

5. Sighhhhhh. I haven't finish reading my AccountingI readings for tomorrow's lecture, not to mention Business Law's.

6. I am serious that I can don't take afternoon nap during holidays and read my books in the afternoon but when I read my textbooks, ohmygod, it's just hypnotizing! I cannot help it and then I move to my bed and then I will fall asleep. Hahaha.

2012-01-08T21:50:00.004+08:00

1. Watching 2NE1TV Season3 and realized that T.O.P is extremely extremely handsome and charming, especially when he smiles! E.X.T.R.E.M.E.L.Y!
How can such handsome and charming man exists!
2. Looking through the box of cards and letters from friends. LOL.
Just watched a PPT clip in a CD from Sl from 2008 for my birthday. It's damn silly.
Having a friend to satisfy a lot of things I wanted, like big cards, real big cards, BIG BIG cards, hand made cards etc, is really great. I got them all! LOL. I even received branded things like JuicyCouture's hairbands AND clips on two separate occasions. So touched!

Zhengwei gave me a card, designed by Christopher Vine, a card I wanted with no words in it but an additional WinnerThePooh note to wish me happy birthday. (Guys are just guys, cards are meant to be written on because no matter the cover design, it's the words in it that brings the best out of the card. )

I forced SL to give me all the cards of various sizes to me! And I made Amirah call me the prettiest CSSRCY Secretary! The handmade-decorated book from Kg with ParkYooChun in it! SUPER LOVE MY FRIENDS!

And to have a letter from a friend sorting out our differences is really.. It goes to show how, I would say, mature we are at facing the issues we had there and then.

3. Birthday, as I grow older, really doesn't play any significant role to me. It doesn't matter to me if my exams fall on my birthday or if a public holiday coincides with it.
And actually, once first of January kicks in, I take it that I am twenty although some organizations think otherwise and have their regulations so strict that it go according to birthdate. (Like GoldenVillage)
You don't enter primary one only when your birthrate says you are seven right.

Even now, I am starting to feel sick of CNY, except for the occasional 'high' that gets me into the CNY mood. I don't do a lot of visiting and that is the main reason I don't particularly look forward to CNY anymore. I super love visiting relatives during festive seasons! I love going to Christmas party at my aunt's house when we were young.
But now, we don't do a lot of visitings because everyone just gather at someone's house and have a buffet meal and then gamble, chit chat and leave. That's basically it and it's boring.
Families go overseas for CNY and that just reduces the number of visiting I need to do.

So now, it's my turn to go KL with my dad this CNY.

4. Things I would love to have:
a. eyelash extension; just the other day, I saw a salesgirl at Bugis with really nice lashes and told her that they are really pretty and she say it's eyelash extension. This made me want eyelash extension! Those really thick ones are really nice, if you doll up to go out (and not to school) everyday.
My dad says those really thick and volume eyelash are like brooms on the eyes. The problem is that I won't be able to do without them once I have them planted and I will have to do it again and again.
b. gel nails with sweet designs but they break easily and cannot last for more than a month.

2012-01-08T17:14:00.002+08:00

1. Feeling extremely hungry now and aunt hasn't cook.
2. Removed the pretty polka dots purple polish on my nails and gave them a new coat so that I won't bite my nails.
They are quite long and it is difficult to navigate my trackpad now.
3. I always dream about the same few people/person.
4. I took out my textbook to read them. I took the textbook for AccountingI out at 1400hr and its now 1717hr and I haven't complete the reading. Sian. Another textbook to go after this for Tuesday's lecture.
5. I finally emailed my application for Vietnam volunteering program. I realized that I have been looking at the wrong application form the entire time and when I finally found the right one, I realized that it's easy to complete (no referees needed!) so I filled in the particulars and emailed them.
Hopefully, they reply me with an approval asap.

Also, I hope that I can go there for a volunteer project soon, like in April when I finish my exams on 26April or in May.

6. Shall go apply for EY intern just in case I don't get my GIPPrelude.
7. Hectic week after this coming one because of all the make up lectures.
On the monday of that hectic week, my school starts at 2.30pm and ends at 10pm.
8. Dad forgot to transfer me this month's allowance and aunt's salary. I am counting on on my OCBC card which looks really ugly and most sales people cannot recognize it as a credit card.
9. No blog to read!!
10. Tomorrow is the day to add/drop and change index. I hope Teoliang isn;t changing her Accounting1 class cause if she isn't, then there is nothing for me to change.
I have decided that smart and nice friends/group mates are more important than good tutors.
11. I protect my Macbook well.

"Pineapple-Tarty Day" !

Playing 'Dress-Up' with Leanne. Girls are just girls, good at role playing! And this is me with her HelloKitty jewelry set!

1. Exhausting to be standing for six hours, baking five batches of tarts!

2. Hate it when my aunt asks me about downloading her drama serials on iPod and when my uncle asks me about soccer matches live streaming on my MacBook. They know nuts about these technology so means I must be around when they want to get their things done. Irritating, especially when I am (busy) studying.

2012-01-07T22:26:00.007+08:00

Pineapple tarts Baking at Irene's House

Sian, bake but cannot eat. That's dieting I guess.

We made balls of pineapples first so that the process would be faster.

Polaroids again!

Her primary school friend from the States! Pretty too!

Leanne

2012-01-06T23:11:00.011+08:00

BESTIES For Life

My favorite shot of the day!

We took a lot of polaroids and I took home two of them! Wahahaha.

I love HelloKitty film!

Pre-Semester Meet Up

I wish Bel all the luck and miracles and goodness to be able to get into the University of her choice! Hopefully NTU!

1. So I went for my dental appointment today at Q&M Dental at Boonlay MRT. The dentist was Dr. George Yang. He is super nice and talks quite a lot. LOL.
2. He guessed that I was in university, he guessed that I was in NTU, he guessed that I was in Accountancy. LOL.
3. I had three decay cavities and he did filling for me. ($70each!)
4. Then I did my scaling and polishing which was also $70. But I had 15% discount because I am from NTU.
5. Oh. He prescribed two bottles of solution for me to rinse my mouth cause he said that I have weak gums which may result in gum recession and my teeth may drop/fall if I don't protect my gums. Sounds very terrible because I don't want to be wearing dentures at the age of forty!
6. Came home and realized I have lots of reading to do, not to mention that I have not started of my third HungerGames book!
7. Depressed that school is starting but it actually ends quite quickly. I will only start school on 10January and will end on 26April That's just three months and sixteen days! :)))

(It's Never Too Late)

2011, You Have Been Superbly Fantastic!

I don't know how and what people choose to put on their 2011-Farewell cum Welcome-2012 post, but I decided to look through every.single.album that I created in 2011 on Facebook and choose some of the photos and have them up here.

There are only six reasons for me to put these photos up here on this post in particular;

a. (I think) I looked pretty in them :)

b. The photo is meaningful and brings back memories

c. I am sure of the potential of the photo in bringing a smile to me or making me laugh out loud at the screen when I look at it years down the road

d. It made me laughed out loud when looking through the albums just now (so much so that I am still smiling while typing this post)

e. Representative

f. The photo has a special feel to it

A pity that there are a lot of photos which I think I looked pretty in, but they don't belong to 2011. Hahaha.

In no particular order, I start...

I think I look quite alright here, with the effects of editing.

I love having that two NationalDay tattoos on my face and there is such a feel about this shot that Bel took of me at the MRT station.

This is such a indescribable photo. Three of us with bags. It's as if we are three super good friends who have just completed our studies. It has a sad departure feeling to it as well, plus the colors of the photo.

We took this at the airport when we sent Bel off to China for her exchange program. I cannot remember who took this for us though. I think it's Bel's (terrifying) mum.

I have no idea why and am quite sad that this photo is appearing so small here. I re-uploaded but it didn't help. Anyway, I love this photo too!

Hahaha. Bel and twist, it's super old school and funny.

LOL!

Hah. Love this!

LOL! I don't know why it happened too.

This is so disgustingly funny.

My first NDP after the Primary5's trip.

Why this photo also so small?! I think I look skinny here! I wanted this to be my Facebook profile picture (They say, to attract people, you cannot just put dull photo of your face. It has to be you doing something, so I thought of cycling and this photo pops up. BUT, my stupid sister doesn't allow me to have this as my display picture.)

My (er4-shi2-si4-xiao4) Dad!

On budget airline to Bangkok!

Red hiding hood!

Twins!

My lost (and can never be recovered) friendship. I imagine myself appearing on SuperSunday and having the hosts help me find Kg when I am 70+ years old and when they finally find her and she appears on the show and we meet, we will run towards each other and hug and cry. LOL!

My Hokkaido trip. I am deeply missing Hokkaido.

1. I didn't know that searching for photos for this post and posting them and captioning them can be so taxing.

2. Listening to CNY songs while typing this! Super excited that CNY is coming in two weeks! I LOVE watching Mediacorp's 2010 CNY countdown!!

3. I am excited because I only have three days in school next week and it's almost like no school and that's like one school week to CNY! YAY! No mood to study.

4. So, the routine. Here we go:

I am greedy, I have lots of hopes and wishes.

Family:

a. I wish my dad and uncle good business.

b. I wish Lucas grow healthily, happily and intelligently.

c. I wish the newborn to be healthy as well.

d. Good health for my dad, aunt and uncle.

c. Tao Hua Yun (I wanted to go pray Yue4Lao3 the other day but didn't LOL.)

d. Good group mates for all my projects for all modules

e. Good tutors for all my modules

f. Good contribution from me for class participation

g. I really really pray that I can go on a GIPPrelude! I pray real hard! Please please please. I am willing to have this for an extremely stressful exam period!

h. I pray hard I will get an internship at EY in year 2!

MyStudent:

a. I hope that I can help her move up to a better class since it is her streaming year

b. I hope I truly improve her studies

c. Maintain or improve her class and level position

d. I don't vent my frustration (from fatigue as well) on her

Resolutions:

a. Practice what I preach (and preach what I practice)

b. No food after 7pm

d. Minimal fried food

e. No more biting of my fingernails (It's long now!)

f. $140 out of my monthly $180 pay from tuition to savings and $40 for spending.

g. Stay true to myself

h. Have more patience

i. Truly make use of my organizer

To do:

a. Print my Vietnam volunteer form (!!)

Today I Don't Feel Like Doing Anything

From: http://list.gmarket.com.sg/item/MEMORETTE-MEMORETTE-SOFTIE-SHOE-2G-32G-PLATINUM/404826720?sellerview=on

1. Bought one of these thumdrive for school.
2. I went school today to buy my AccountingI textbooks and foolscap plus print all the lecture notes and course outline.
3. I still love the feeling of getting brand new textbooks.
4. I swear I meet all the nice people in my school. I was printing my worksheets and I hogged the staple the entire time (!) and I just held it on my hand till a new stack was ready since the other guy doesn't look like he needs a staple. LOL.

Then I had to repeatedly go the the printer to print and staple my stuff cause I didn't want to print on big stack at one go. And when I went back the last time, that guy was using the staple. I didn't think much about it cause I only needed to staple one stack of note but he actually came forward and passed me the staple. I wouldn't have thought of doing that cause it is uh, intuitive that we will go to the staple station and get it if we want to.

I am sincerely grateful for all the superbly nice people I have met and will be meeting in NTU!
It's like everyone is showering me kindness!

5. Excited that I am visiting the dentist tomorrow! I hope the dentist is a young and handsome man! But I rather a lady than an old man cause old man gives me a feeling that they will mess the procedure up, like pluck out my tooth or something.
6. The moisturizer from the brand Rosken, named Dry Skin Cream, is like superb! It really moisturize my skin!

2012-01-03T01:50:00.002+08:00

1. I just finished reading HungerGames: CatchingFire, totally confused by the ending though I am relieved that Katniss and Gale are alive. I don't know if Peeta is dead or alive. LOL. Seems like he is dead.
2. No book makes my heart beats like HungerGames. No book ever made me cry like HungerGames. No book makes me want to continue reading chapters after chapters and that is how I finished chapters seven to the end today.
3. I've checked with the clock: I take ten minutes to finish reading a short chapter and fifteen for a long one.
4. Book three next, before the holidays end.
5. CNY in another twenty days and thats about three weeks. YAY.
6. Six days to the start of hell. SIGH.
7. Haven't been snacking though I really have so much I want to eat like my chocolates, peanut pancake from S11, cheese popcorn, potato chips, banana chips, glutinous rice balls.
But snacks are the easiest to quit. Then fried stuff then carbo.

The most important thing about diet is sustainability of the diet.
So no snacks. No fried food. No eating after seven.

Lots of joy I am missin' out. :((

8. Hope Sentosa hotel quickly send me the reservation email for me to make payment for reunion dinner. Really looking forward to eating the food at the buffet! Haven't had buffet reunion dinner for a couple of years.
Last year was Zhou's Kitchen at JurongPoint.
The year before the last was the revolving tower restaurant.
This year it will be at Sentosa. YAY!
9. My period period. Glad it's here but it brings discomfort and this sucks.
10. JoannePeh's song at the countdown sucks big time!
11. My hip dad went countdown. Okay, he went to watch fireworks at Fullerton.
12. I think a good countdown, to me, is watching a good countdown event at home (with no squeezing and no heat) with family (and friends), drinks and food.
Apparently, Mediacorp hasn't been doing a good job. Their line up for the programme sucks. Getting some young violinist or in-house artistes to perform.
And they always have some silly competition going on between two groups of artistes like actors and actresses for the 7pm and 9pm shows respectively.
They always do for CNY countdown. They did it for the previous charity show.
There was only a year the CNY countdown programme was fabulous!

My Haul Post

So I don't know which to start with-

my best buy or the least favorite of my buys?

And I will start with the latter

This is a basic long sleeve (slightly) sparkling (LOL!) (Or maybe it's just glittery) that is comfy for school wear. I have had enough of clothes that require me to tuck in my tummy. This is from Dorothy Perkins. Doesn't look nice here precisely because it isn't on me yet. :)

And I skipped to my best buy. Okay, not best buy but best outfit of the buys for today.

Sleeved dress! YAY. Love it. Look's perfect with my newly bought yellow bag. :)

This is closer to the real yellow of the bag.

This sling bag is so unlike me but I love it nonetheless. With the outfit in particular. I am bringing it whenever I wear dressier clothes out. This will be my Reunion Dinner outfit tentatively.

And this chiffon top from F21.

This is chiffon too. Chiffon is comfy, light and it's like wearing nothing.

And this as well.

I bought new shorts for school! YAY!

And new shoes for everyday wear to school. Super YAY because I threw away my CottonOn pink one and was troubled over what to wear to school.

1. I have officially finished spending the $350 my dad gave to me for CNY clothes.

2. These should be sufficient to last me for the semester.

3. No need to go town anymore. Love it.

4. Every shopping trip that I go with my sister, I spend like a lot. Like A LOT.

5. Tired!

6. Haven't touch HungerGames for like million of years! Got to re-start soon if not I won't be able to complete it.

7. Shit. My dental appointment clashes with Klunch. Got to go postpone my dental. Troublesome.

2011-12-30T23:53:00.005+08:00

My buys from BugisStreet and BugisJunction

These are all the earrings my sister and I bought from BugisStreet! Super cheap, like three pairs for ten bucks when I think shops like KateLove will sell them at ten bucks each.

I bought this cardigan for only fifteen bucks after bargaining with the aunty. The original price was $20 though another shop was selling it at $25! It's for school because I have no clothes for school, seriously! It is an emergency, a crisis!

And this half-skirt-half-blouse thing from Yatch21 to go with leggings. This is kind of expensive, $39.90 but I just bought it because the boss gave me twenty per cent discount at the original price of $49.90. It has a vintage feel, according to my sister, although I said it looks 'aunty' on me.

So I bought these from BugisStreet as well. The ribbon faded pink flats is for everyday wear to school. The slippers is kind of too big but it's cheap at five bucks so I bought it. And that's the flats with ribbon which I called it the Vietnam flats (cause my Vietnamese friend has a similar one). I bought at 25 after a five bucks discount and my sister got her at the first floor for twenty bucks. Kill me. And hers is pink. I wanted both but the pink one doesn't have my size.

New year so it's new clothes for my iPhone!

1. Haven't been reading my HungerGames and Vincent is going to borrow the first. Got to catch up otherwise he won't be able to read the second one and I won't be able to finish the trilogy before school starts.

2. Played lots of card games with my sister, Vincent and Joleen.

2011-12-29T22:13:00.008+08:00

NEW HAIRCUT

1. I am loving my new hair which doesn't seem exactly 'new' although it's shorter and it curls inward at the ends.
2. So, I went to Chapter2, Jurong Point for the haircut.
You can look for Ezann Heng if you want a nice haircut but cannot really pay for the Creative Stylist. This stylist looks quite cute and you can be at ease with her. I personally prefer female hairstylist and I got her the very first time I request for a female stylist.I feel absolutely comfortable leaving my hair in her hands. Fortunately or unfortunately, she still hasn't got promoted to Creative Stylist.

Otherwise, you can ask for Jimmy Too. He is the Creative Stylist and very meticulous to your needs. He is the only stylist who deposits my bag in the lockers provided, always. All the little acts count towards the overall Chapter2 experience.

Both of them give perfect haircut all the time. :)

3. My haircut was supposedly to cost me S$28. But the lucky dip which got me a ten-bucks instant discount helped me a little. :)
4. I am feeling hungry.
5. The thing about going on diet is that everything just seems to smell better and taste yummier than usual. :(( It's ultra saddening to be on diet.
There is like no strong motivation to be on diet, like the need to fit into a wedding gown or some sort.
Nonetheless, necessary. Sigh.
6. My sister works half day tomorrow because it's New Year (YAY!) and we are going Bugis! I hope to get that pair of Vietnam flats! And the pretty pink/mint-green slippers.
I pray that there's my size and there is stock!
7. My favorite pajamas is my Garfield Tee-shirt cause it gives me the real pajamas feel. The rest are just school-tee-shirts-turn-sleepwear and that sucks.
I want big and cute tee shirts!

Hahaha. My dad says his watch will look nice on me so I tried it and wow, it really looks not bad.

P/S: My hair so nice smelling!

2011-12-26T14:18:00.012+08:00

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2011

The christmas tree is a lil' dark, even though I already edited the brightness of the photo. I handmade all the christmas objects and characters!

We went all the way to Katong and visited the 112 Katong Mall.

This is me and my art work.

Another angle of the handicraft.

This is my gift from sl.

And in it is this card.

Zooming in on the card.

And this too. I don't know when I am going to eat this because I am going on a diet like now.

Fish and Chips I had. I had chocolate milk shake with banana. This is one of the few drinks with milk that I drink. The one I had at Prive at Keppel Bay is delicious too! Slurps.

Swiss Shroom sl ordered and I ated my first beef in Singapore, my second beef in my life and surprisingly, this tasted not-smelly.

I am too lazy to re-upload this photo to make in large size but we had spicy drumlets which is nice.

The best food was Katong Laksa. But I gathered that you need to consume it fast once cooked or the beehoon will taste weird after a while.

1. So I conclude that I cannot wear jeans, ugly.

2. I think I am growing out of control and so, I have decided to go on a diet in preparation for CNY as well.

3. This means that I don't know what to do with the packet of chocolate I bought from Candylicious.

4. Off to read my Hunger Games!

2011-12-25T00:49:00.005+08:00

Eve of Christmas with Weishan

Thought this was quite an alright photo except the fat face. Another problem is my short wedges.

Face really super fat.

Told you.

We ate Marche cause Weishan wanted to. Finally get to eat my rosti again.

1. I think I look unpresentable in all my photos that I removed the post on this creation of album from my wall on Facebook.

Seriously, something wrong with my face. Okay, maybe it's me and my body.

2. My all time favorite at Marche is Rosti. Love the burnt potato. LOL. But then, I don't understand why people ask for another scoop of the white sauce which may be mayonnaise or something. I didn't even eat five per cent of it. It's nice but not THAT nice.

3. Anyway, the meal was surprisingly cheap. It costs me only $17.80.

4. Not that we (Weishan and myself) didn't take any photo together, but I realized that I look ugly in it so I didn't post it, not even on Facebook. LOL. The album on Facebook looks real empty for a Christmas eve celebration. LOL.

5. I met like quite a lot of friends today and a lot of Mediacorp artistes on Friday.

Mediacorp artistes:

a. Zeng Shi Mei (She is super pretty with very nice short and brilliantly colored hair!)

b. Pan Shu Qing (Very high class and pretty!)

c. David Gan (Uh, he was buying lots of food from Taka basement and I suppose they are for some celebration.)

d. Apple Hong Yi Xin (She was just beside me doing her nails while I was doing my manicure at Far East. She has very pretty nose! And mouth and facial features actually. The TV screen makes her look like she has big face but nope! )

Friends I met today:

a. Leehui (and)

b. Choonchye

c. Jacelyn (and)

d. Joshua

e. Bryant Chiang

I really only 'hey! Hi!' to S29 classmates I met coincidentally at malls. Well, the respond is only natural. What else do you expect me to say?

6. Lubricant worked and I suffered zero blisters on the areas I applied it on. YAY! So, I managed to wear my pink shoes throughout.

I was supposed to wear the pink wedges I bought from Japan but its a little too high for walking. I need dad's car or a taxi if I am going to wear it.

Taking a break from Meteor Garden

1. Was watching Meteor Garden halfway when I received WeiShan's notification that results were released already.
2. Anyway, I login-ed and checked and the results just appeared. I couldn't check it one by one. Literally stunned for a second, something I don't ever recall myself doing before.
3.
My GPA isn't good but it isn't bad. (Hopefully no mistakes in calculation cause we have to do it manually until the result slip is out I think)
Grades were better than expected.

Happy about passing my damn genes.
Very happy I got A- for statistics even though I only knew 50% of the paper. I practiced hard for statistics and have to thank Mervyn and Kayne and everyone else I sought help from! All the kind souls I met, I am grateful for!
Somehow getting A- for marketing got me kind of hmm excited though not as happy as getting A- for stats. I think this has to do with my projects which I have to thank Teo Liang in particular. I think she is real good!

Got a B for the damn OB. Hmmm, better than expected because I thought I would fail it since I attempted less than 50% of the paper. No joke, but half the paper blank. Getting B is just fine.

Got a B- for shit Economics which is uh hmmm okay. I can only say that others did very well for Economics because I know my paper wasn't THAT bad to get a B- which is like 60%? Oh, cannot deny I fared poorly for class quizzes!
But I studied very hard for Economics okay, seriously, comparable to statistics.
What to do, I can only say I am not destined to do well for Economics. Sigh. Sian.
I think having strong Economics knowledge about the world is very important for business and obviously I don't have it.
Nonetheless, Goodbye Economics. Never going to see you again in my life (hopefully!)! YAY!

Digressing, I don't know what is the difference between 'darn' and 'damn'. (I don't know when to use which. In anyway case, 'darn' sounds very irritating and I used to have a classmate who used 'darn' pretty often and felt frustrated every time she used that word)

4. Blogging is few of my first outlet of thoughts!
5. My sis is good with writing and I think I am better in calculations. Good news for myself? Hopefully!
6. Doubt my results good enough to get me an exchange program. Still, I am going to apply because I need it!
7. I absolutely love watching Meteor Garden!
And, I have, also, no idea why my tears just flow every time the sad scenes appear. Tears just flow uncontrollably.
Even after watching it so many times and am 19 now, I still cry watching Meteor Garden! I love the male lead!
8. Out with sis tomorrow!
9. YAY! Happy christmas and happy new year!

09S09's Chalet and Thoughts

I am in this phase of repeating this This Christmas by JYP. I'm lovin' it!
But the funny thing is, I found three guys in the MV irritating which is hmmm, okay.

So I attended another class' (LOL!) chalet. It was great because the last chalet that I went to was 4/2's which was centuries ago so it is about time I re-experience chalet.
Surprisingly, the spending on the entire chalet was alright, if not for the last meal which was not worth the price. Still, had a great time there.

There is a S29 gathering this friday for dinner which I wanted to attend but obviously am not going because I haven't been to any except for one trip to Sentosa and that's really all.
So it will be super awkward to attend this dinner out of the blue. Besides, even Irene is not going and that is even weirder. So nope, I am not going.
And this means, I have no more class gathering to attend because there is like apparently no more secondary school class gathering and I don't attend that of JC's.

My favorite game at the chalet because it was brainless and it depends on luck. Hahaha.

1. So anyway, remember that I say there is a reason I don't lock my blog?
And remember how Mike met Xiaxue online by surfing the net and browsing blogs?
So i was thinking, if I lock my blog, then how does another Mike chance upon my blog and read my posts? Yep, so that is the reason I don't lock my blog. LOL. Silly I know but still...
2. Oh. Sl's results were released today and it was very good! Happy and excited for her!
3. Sighhhh. Worried for my own results because I know it is going to be bad.
I tell you, I can predict my results pretty accurately. I knew it was bad news the moment I completed my papers for A levels and I was right. I never deny that my results were bad for A levels.
Deceived myself that results ain't the most important thing in life. Yeah right.
4. Going out with Weishan this saturday and hopefully get to book New Year's Eve by tomorrow cause it is obviously disappearing from the cinemas.
Got to get her a christmas present. What should I get? Hmmm. Does she make up? Cannot remember. Sian. Oh, lip gloss maybe.
5. Need to get present for my sis too. What should I get? She gave me Cure cleanser which I really want so much! It feels real good after using and applying the water treatment.
6. Wanted to blog about something just now but I cannot recall what is it now. Sigh.
7. Okay, I know what is it that I wanted to blog about just now:

After my hokkaido trip, I know better what kind of husband I want.
I want a family guy who loves his family and child.
I hope he will always put on the wedding ring to show his dedication towards the marriage and family.

It is not impossible to find such a guy because I met this guy in my tour. He loves his wife and his son. And he sure looks charismatic and charming.
He is of great build (not the same as muscular), great height, wears the ring on his finger and everything I dream of of my husband.

As of now, at this ignorant age of 19, I don't mind adopting a new-born as my child.

8. Things to buy:
- Santa claus hat; I want to wear for Christmas!
- Maybe blue and grey contacts cause I really want to try out blue cause Xiaxue looks good in it.
9. To do:
- Book CNY reunion buffet dinner. The menu looks real good! I pray hard that there is still vacancy for ten!
10. I cannot stand people who says 'Seen through life, seen through people' at this age of 19. You think you've seen a lot? I for one, think otherwise. At least for myself, I know I haven't seen enough.
11. I shall quickly finish watching my meteor garden!
12. Anyway, I don't hope for super good results. All I ask for is a result good enough to be able to get me for an exchange program. Not that really want to go China but I know I need an exchange program if not I am so dead without a CCA.
13. Ohya. I need to print the application form for the Vietnam volunteering.

2011-12-20T09:43:00.147+08:00

HO HO HOKKAIDOOOO!

We felt weird wearing the boots in the airport!

I so don't look like myself with my double eyelid stickers that I didn't put for the rest of the tour. Now I understand, if plastic surgery (maybe not plastic surgery cause there is nothing plastic about eyelids surgery) are irreversible, it means whether you like it or not, whether you are used to it or not, you cannot revert back to your old self. I think I prefer myself with no double eyelid stickers. Nonetheless, my sticker is still a sticker so it is fine.

It really is weird to see myself with obvious double eyelid.

Once we touched down, we reached this place for lunch!

Love their vending machines! So cute!

One of the nicest meals we had.

My first time seeing snow so I was so happy!

Hell Valley. Super cold! And no entry once the sky darkens!

The slipper is to be worn with the Yukata, not a fashion disaster I made.

I REALLY REALLY love yukata! I want to buy one!

All of us in Yutaka. I don't know if it is Yukata.

Christmas! One of my best christmas memories overseas!

Pink piano!

One of the best dinner buffet.

I took the kid's plate for meals.

I love my sis! :)) She is the only immediate family member I lived with all my life up till now!

We went to a Bear Range!

This I give credit to my sis! So pretty!

Love my Uniqlo jeans!

The bears looked cute with their playground covered in snow! Tour leader (not tour guide) says the place will smell when it is not winter. Hahaha.

One of the best catered meal in Hokkaido!

Melon soft cream is the BEST ice cream I had in Hokkaido!

At a Japanese style palace.

Post box.

Old style letter box.

This is how my sis takes photo with half the brand name gone. Thanks.

It was REAL and alive christmas tree in Japan!

Sat on snow!

Not very nice though lots of dishes.

BBQ pork. Delicious.

My tour guide. LOL.

Pure water! It has completely no taste! Better than my distilled water which I feel tastes sweet.

We went to ride on Ropeway cable car and went to the top of a mountain. Got to eat this corn ice cream and it is one of the BEST ice cream I ate! Heavenly!

This is after we went HIKING on snow. Can you believe it? We went HIKING on snow. The slopes were super steep and my sis and i thought we would never make it to the top. But thankfully, and ironically, we did and we were the first two which is why we got to take such photos with no people interrupting us.

We went to ride on the snow motor! I didn't drive it. I sat with my sis and though she was slow, she was a safe driver. On the way back, I sat with Ah dian who drove the vehicle and goodness, he overtook the other motors like anything and I thought I was going to die, seriously.

This is the place we went for crabs buffets. Not worth the price.

As nice as the picture looks, the crabs are not that delicious. Only the long and thorny crabs are delicious. The rest are not good.

I love the fried squid!!

BBQ

I don't eat tomatoes. I took two of my sis' to add colors to the photo. Hahaha. But I love the using kid's plate for meals!

Salmon museum! Interesting place!

We visited the White Chocolate Factory

Pinnochio

They have lots of mini houses at the factory and I had fun exploring them! There were beds and chairs in them!

Still at the white chocolate factory.

At the white chocolate factory! Love the fairytale theme! :)

Some famous river. LOL.

Some days it got really cold.

With my dad!

Another of the worst meals! Totally hungry even after eating.

Steam clock!

SUPER love the fried squid! Missing it so much!

Six differently flavored ice cream. Not nice.

In the hotel.

This is the hotel I stayed at the ski resort. All Japanese kids have to learn how to ski and swim. It is part of their education. Envious.

Such beautiful scenery.

I didn't edit the colors of the photo. I merely took them again at a different timing when the sun was rising.

Darker

Brighter

Zoomed in on the church.

Another view of the church.

The church was super pretty!

Another buffet breakfast. This basically sums up what you are going to expect at the hotel breakfast. Scrambled eggs, Japanese eggs ( I don't know what's the name for it), sausages, porridge (delicious, especially when it is very dry) and all sorts of salmon except fresh raw salmon (!!).

My hand print.

Self explanatory as well; my footprints.

I knew i had to lie on the snow or I would regret not doing so.

The snow was ultra thick.

No use getting my sister to take photos for me because I would just be exasperated at her damn skills.

Wuiminn and ah dian went skiing since they didn't try before. Looked pretty easy on Japan's snow.

The bento lunch we had. One of the worst meals in Japan.

Silver River waterfall that had frozen because of the low temperature.

Bongo machine is my favorite arcade game!

I love wearing Yukata and being able to walk around the entire hotel in it! Super comfy! AND PRETTY! Okay, this was the only colored Yukata. The rest I wore were blue, white and black.

One of my buffet meals. I loved the pasta and the Chawanmushi.

It is -14 degrees Celcius one of the days.

This is the Ramen Village.

The Uniqlo near to Ramen Village.

Outside the Ramen Village.

This is the Ramen the shop our tour guide brought us to served. The egg and the pork were delicious but the soup base wasn't fantastic at all.

Oh god. Their Gyoza is delicious like heaven!

The ramen stall next door that Shasha visited serves much better Ramen! :)) Slurps.

The driver of my tour group. He is super handsome in real okay. And very courteous. And he looked super different after hot spring and in this photo. LOL.

At a Ramen Shrine.

They have like PINK packaging for cigars! My tour guide says that Japanese ladies love pink! No wonder it wasn't difficult finding pink versions of everything I like there.

A meal in the food court at the outlet shopping centre costs $15 but the food sure worth the price.

A pair of wedges, which was on 50% sale, I bought in a outlet factory shopping centre.

Look at the toothbrush Japanese hotels provide for free! I love the colors!! :)) All of them.

Samantha Thavasa at the Domestic Airport. My sister bought a wallet here. Jealous. And at that point, I was contemplating whether to get their bag or not.

So their Samantha Thavasa doesn't only sell bags and wallets but they offer sweet treats as well.

So pretty I wanted to die. The salesgirls so nice I wanted to work there even though I don't like to be in the service industry.

Doraemon land.

Doraemon playground.

Doraemon with gigantic Shao Bing.

These are the buttons to control the toilet bowl, different from those in normal toilets.

I don't know what this is for but it is not a tap so I am guessing it is for washing hair or bathing babies because there is temperature for the water.

Thought I looked skinnier than usual in this mirror.

Didn't take many photos in Shanghai but take a look at their translation for XiaoLongBao.

1. So thankful that my dad always brings us to travel whenever he can afford it.

He brought us to many countries.

a. Xiang Xia in China (some really old village with my relatives there.)

b. Port Klang, KL, Malaysia

c. Genting, Malaysia (Not that this is a separate country but there are people who hasn't visit Genting before.)

d. Korea (Winter time!)

e. Hap Chai, Thailand (we took an 8 hours bus ride there! Goodness!)

f. Bangkok, Thailand (Great shopping and good food good massage!)

g. Shanghai, China (Twice)

h. Gold Coast, Australia

i. Hong Kong

j. Macau

k. Zhuhai, China

l. Hokkaido, Japan

On my own, I went

- Taiwan (with my secondary school friends)

- Nanjing (with school on an exchange program)

2. That is one of the reason I want to study hard because I want to earn big bucks to bring my dad and aunt to travel like he did for us.

As for aunt, it has been so long since she last went traveling and I know she longs for one holiday. And my heart wrenches every time she recalls the many-years-ago Australia trip.

3. I so love Japan I want to migrate there. Japan's culture keeps me wanting to go back more than Korea. I am no longer as interested in returning to Korea for another visit. I now look forward to my next visit to Japan and hopefully I get to visit Tokyo.

And if you do the calculations, going Japan by tour group is cheaper.

2011-12-13T01:10:00.002+08:00

Things to buy/do:

- Terminate Standard Chartered account
- Get the bag charm from Samantha Thavasa
- Get the box for Dad's christmas present
- Buy more plasticine For Dad's christmas present

2011-12-03T14:25:00.007+08:00

No content

Luc-Luc!! Getting naughtier and more uncontrollable every.single.day.

Shermann and Lucas at the Christmas tree at Harbourfront Centre.

They went to ride on some cars at Toy R' Us.

This I bought it from the machine at Toy R' Us. Got it, the best one, at my first shot.

This too!! It is a mirror with stickers in it.

1. So this is my last post before I leave for Hokkaido. May be my last post ever if any mishap happens.
2. If any thing happens and I, fortunately or unfortunately, die, I will regret
- Not having volunteered for any overseas program me/project
- Not marrying my husband/boyfriend
- Not dying prettily.
That's all I can think of now.

3. And if I die, ysl, please log into my Facebook and announce that I die cause I want to know the responses to my death. Hahaha.
I want to know who feels what about my demise. Password and userid as usual.
4. Before my mum passed away, she left us each a sum of money for
a. University
b. Getting driving license
c. Lasik

I am on my way to completing the first. I have already achieved the second. As for the third, I have no plans for it and not in the near future because I can see without my glasses. I just pray I won't go blind at a young age because of my intensive rubbing of eyes.

5. Anyway, I really detest the (I think she is) China girl in the new Wonder Girls group. I hate every single dance move of hers, every word she sings and all the dresses she had worn.
6. My cousin's baby has been confirmed to be a boy and he will be named Marcus while his brother is Lucas. I call Lucas Luc-Luc or Pocoyo, depending on my mood.
7. Currently, I am not excited for my trip at all. I only get excited at the wrong times, like when I am supposed to be sleeping.
8. I met KongYong at JP yesterday when I was there for the overrated Taiwan movie. It didn't make me recall anything in my school(s) nor any guy. I almost fell asleep actually.
I will describe the whole story to be a hill - short (which means a low peak climax) and gentle slope ( and this translate to draggy start and end.
9. I love how Mr Brown made fun at the title of the movie. LOL. I had a fun time reading his tweets.
10. I am re-reading Hotel K and it still scares me of Bali, Indonesia. I cannot imagine if by mistake or misfortune someone sneakily smuggle his drugs in my luggage and I unfortunately get caught and subsequently sentenced to life imprisonment in Hotel K. I will commit suicide with no consideration. It is dark and dangerous and dirty inside.

11. The thing about going overseas is buying silly gifts back. It's obligatory, not voluntarily.
I wonder if all the aunties feel ashamed to request for us to buy stuff (mostly food like stupid Muah Chee, red dates. Hello, don't waste MY money and baggage space to bring stuff back that are sold in Singapore.)
Why should i spend more than fifty per cent of MY money (which I earned from sacrificing MY study time for tuition and from food and shopping) on buying stupid stuff back for the damn relatives.
Worse still, must drive down and deliver to their house, in front of the door step.
Basic courtesy is that if request for stuff to be bought, you should come and collect it from us yourself. It is not us delivering it to your house. If you feel very ashamed/thick-skinned/'pai-seh' (so to speak), then don't get us to buy. :)

Don't ask me to recall those times when you buy things for us.
Number one, I don't recall any.
Number two, I don't want to recall because you should have bought if you wanted to. You can don't if you didn't want to.
Number three, I don't see why you call and talk shit to us only when we are going on holidays and other times, you just lead your own life. Cannot stop rolling my eyes while typing this.

Actually, I will buy more voluntarily if you didn't deliberately call me to. And when you shamelessly get me to buy, like lots of stuff, it just turn me off and it feels damn cheapskate. And all the more I won't buy them. I will tell you we didn't get see those stupid stuff you wanted us to get.

If you want lots of things, you exchange the currency and bring the currency over. You should not ask if you should cause you ought to be doing so. I will exchange the currency if I want expensive (and lightweight) stuff from overseas. i won't tell you to get the things and then I pay you when you are back. This is not sincere enough in telling me that you truly are not taking advantage of me. Thanks.

So if we are all buying for the sake of buying, then let's have a deal. Let us all not buy for each other. :) I am totally fine with this.

12. Still thinking hard about applying for Vietnam's volunteering program.

2011-11-30T06:36:00.000+08:00

I am going to end my examinations today, tonight. Latest by 7pm! :))

So many things to do!!
But actually, once exam ends, all the things become nothing. LOL.

2011-11-29T02:18:00.001+08:00

To do:

1. Check out SIF
2. Check out Girls' Home
3. Check out Deaf/Mute association
4. Check out orphanage

2011-11-28T22:16:00.003+08:00

COUNTING DOWN TO END OF EXAMINATIONS!

TWO MORE DAYS!! In fact, less than 48hours! YAY!

One of the worst exam period so far.

Expect poor results.

Bad time table but should I change? I don't feel like and am lazy to change.

To do:

1. Buy Simple's deodorant.
2. Pack luggage for Hokkaido
3. Drop by Daiso to buy zip lock bags/vacuum bags ( I love going Daiso!! Super!)
4. Visit dentist ( I need this! shall go on Friday!!)
5. Search for the box for Dad's present (Clementi mall! Shall go perhaps after dentist)
6. Develop photos for Dad's Christmas present (Clementi mall as well)
7. Wash all the scarfs for Hokkaido trip (Thursday morning)

8. Tuition

9. Blog!!

10. Attend post-exam celebration with Vincent and my sis (at JP!)

My stupid sis ASKED me to create the event on FB and her friend went to view it and said it was stupid. Feel like killing my sister.

I have five day work week for next semester. Hence, considering if I should continue taking my student for tuition.

No tuition, no income.

No more jobs so near to my house.

No money no clothes no spending power, cannot buy things I like as and when I want to.

Tuition occupies my time.

School and examinations:

1. The bad and first exam paper (OB) made me worried for my results.

2. So I built up my resilience towards difficult papers.

3. Then, subsequent blows of tough paper just made me realize that I escape them by telling myself that I always have family and friends to fall back on if anything happens.

4. All in all, tough papers in university just gave me no motivation to study though I am worried for my results.

I really want to be able to work in Ernst and Young in the future!

Of course, I would love to work in MAS which is like beyond me, much less Goldman Sachs and GIC.

Sigh.

Wanted to do well for Economics paper to prove to Mr Ho that I really can do well for his subject (cause I seriously let him down for A levels) but doubt I can. Sigh. Poor quizzes results with the mediocre exam paper simple give poor results.

Good quiz results but bad stats paper also give bad results.

Sucky individual projects and the worst ever exam paper I ever did means border-line results for OB even though I (and practically everyone else) received an A+ for group project.

Sucks genes which I am suppose to be studying right now but obviously I am not and have already exercised my SU option. So, yep. Will study after this. It is difficult and I regret but will continue with it because there really is nothing much I can do now.

Marketing projects were quite good I felt. But lack of class participation and mediocre script plus bad hand writing equal mediocre results.

In conclusion, Bs and Cs. SIGHHHHHHH.

2011-11-21T00:48:00.004+08:00

1. Okay, I changed my mind. I will do it after exams cause it is only ten more days! I am counting down!
Like 10,9,8 ,7,6,5,4,3,2,1!!!!!
2. Besides, I know I will take a long time to blog this post about my future. LOLL.
3. Goodbye!
4. I will blog it the very day I end my examinations. Wait for it.
5. Need to remind myself something to blog about: There is a reason why I don't lock my blog.

2011-11-20T23:56:00.001+08:00

1. I am going to blog about my future as a reward for completing most of my micro and macro economics topics! Wait for it. In another hour's time, at most.

2011-11-20T00:57:00.003+08:00

1. I know I did so badly for OB. Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
2. I just realized that if you want to type multiples of an alphabet, like in sighhhhhhhhhh, you must click 'h' many times, unlike on Windows.
3. Excited for Hokkaido trip!
4. Exams are ending in about one and a half weeks.
5. Somebody is ending only next month.
6. Cannot wait for examinations to end.
7. I can control what I eat, what I drink, what I think but there are two things in my life I cannot control and change
a. Handwriting; its killing me!
b. Resisting sleep; I have to master this.
8. Right now, I take nap in the afternoon for study period. So i compensate the time I wasted sleeping by studying late till like 5 the next morning. And then I go sleep and wake up a 9. Do some work then I am tired again so I nap and the cycle repeats.

2011-11-14T20:24:00.001+08:00

1. Really tiring to not nap in the afternoon.
2. Do i need to wear jeans to exam hall?
3. Where the hell is the Sports Recreation Centre?

2011-11-13T23:52:00.005+08:00

See what my dad posted on Facebook!
Thankful he doesn't know how to tag his daughters! Both without makeup and deep dark eye-circles.
Nonetheless, I love this picture. Hahaha.

2. My sister say I look cheena with dark pink, which is almost red, outer coat and pink boots. Sian.
3. And she forced me to put on the hoodie, saying i look cute with it. Then when I took photos for her, I asked her to put on the hoodie, she doesn't want to. Shit.

2011-11-13T21:17:00.002+08:00

Shopping for Hokkaido Trip

1. So i went orchard with my sis after brunching with dad (prawn mee!).
2. What I was wearing as shown in the photo:
a. Easy Legging Trousers from Uniqlo! $30+ Love it so much!
b. Long sleeve top from Forever 21 $25 Love it a lot too!
c. Pink boots from Winter time, $53! (My favorite buy) Super love!
3. What else I bought:
a. Another pair of jeans from Dorothy Perkins, originally priced at $79 but we bought with the discount vouchers for $59!
b. Bought two winter tops from Uniqlo for $14.90 each.
4. So, zaiwei saw me in orchard but I didn't meet him. LOL.
5. I think I look cute in the photo above!

2011-11-12T00:50:00.001+08:00

Hopefully this is bigger and you can see the face. LOL.

2011-11-12T00:19:00.004+08:00

Marketing Tutorial

1. There you go, this is my marketing tutorial group in the more high tech tutorial class in NTU.
2. My tutor is Wayne Kwan, an adjunct professor, very strict very exaggerating but fun.

3. Okay let me say something about those I labeled (from the top);
a. Kenneth Yeo - He is from ACSI. I went to tutorial room at 1pm today and from the outside, it was super dark so I thought there wasn't anyone in the class. And so, I pushed the door open like its my own door and then I started to click on the switches for light and then saw Kenneth sitting there and he 'Hello'.
And I gave my usual 'uhhhh' and told myself 'i got a shock of life!'.
Took like ten minutes to recover from my shock.
b. Jin Hao; LOL he damn funny today. He talked about his experience in bungee jumping in Thailand and his narration is damn funny. The whole group laughed like crazy, including me and a guy came to shout at us, requesting us to lower our volume cause they were studying. He is from JJC soccer.
c. Mervyn; the guy who helped me so much for statistics all the time, especially during quizzes period. He is super smiley and smiles all the time. Loves beatbox and he has a license to perform in Orchard. Cool or what. Oh, he was the first first person I talked to on the first day of school.
d. Natalie Koh; she is from ACJC and she speaks good English and she presents really really well!! Charismatic!
e. Wei Shan; I lunch with her all the time and we gossip about everyone. LOL.
f. Kayne - he also helped me in my statistics a lot. Actually, I go to him for all sorts of problems like Econs, marketing etc.
g. Teo Liang - ohmygod, i realised we are going on the same tour in Japan except that her departure is on 5th and mine is either 2nd or 3rd, I can't remember which. But so cool right!!!! Can't imagine if we meet! Would love to go on the same tour as her!
h. Phuong- Vietnam girl and she is quite nice. hahaha.
i. Brandan - yeah, Brandan. Really nice guy after talking to him. He is in cheerleading and loves it and suffers an injury every training. Hahaha.

4. So it is the end of school for semester 1 today.

2011-11-11T01:31:00.005+08:00

1. I wanted to post this on Facebook but I don't know if it is weird. LOL.
2. Sigh. Can't imagine there is so much to study and revise!!
3. There is an urgent marketing project, ungraded. Yihong didn't present much for the previous case and he said he felt like a vegetable with little contribution and so we gave him this ungraded reject. LOL. And I contributed nothing except for say 'I can help if you need! :)' and '(Your ppt) Looks good!'. LOLL!
4. Needed to clarify something on Stats and Facebook for help. Ohmygod, Facebook is so important now.
5. Anyway, that's not the main thing i want to say. So Brandan was again the only one online. Don't know where Kayne and Mervyn disappeared too. Sigh.
And unfortunately, Brandan was about to go out for his cheerleading training.
So he suggested I call him.
I rejected, LOL. Cause it's not THAT urgent, I can wait and ask another time. Besides, it is extremely weird to call him. I already find it kind of awkward and weird to call my dad, much less this new-found friend.
Before I could exit the conversation, there, my phone rang.
Unknown number, so it couldn't be brandan (cause I have his number because of my marketing project).
I picked and it was him.
Oh, before he called me and after rejecting to call him, I actually told him it's very funny to call him so it was okay.
Goodness.
And I asked a question and the explanations he gave made me sound real stupid.
Whatever, can't be bothered.
6. Nonetheless, thankful that my doubts are cleared. Sigh. Why I so stupid. Sian. Everyone around me in school is smarter than me seriously. So, no problem getting help. It just depends on whether the person is willing to help or not. :) But more often than not, those that I asked help from, are more than willing. So YAY!
I get to meet all the nice people around. Hope this remains for the next few semesters. Just five more!
6. Ohmygod, last two formal tutorials for semester 1!!

So I think I look quite nice here. I want to change my Facebook profile picture but realize this photo isn't in any of my albums and if I upload this NDP photos, i think people will be like Uhhh. So either I delete notification or I don't change my profile picture.

My pink stationery in my pencil case.

I was shocked to see my arm like this yesterday night. I cut my nails but didn't file them. Then I scratched my arm while working and it was extraordinaryily itchy so I looked at it and saw this.

It's this bad. It is very bad to me. I wonder if these things happen to me only or everyone gets it. It's gone now but some scratched marks still around.

2011-11-09T03:24:00.004+08:00

1. I think I am treating blogger as my microblog. LOL.

2. I just busy-bodily downloaded a few papers from some of the more critical classmates I have in my marketing class and realized that some of their reports are really really good. Like two of them are particularly outstanding I feel.

3. So in comparison, I thought mine was just mediocre. Surely not the best, not the worst but I am not sure if I am closer which end of the spectrum.

2011-11-09T01:10:00.001+08:00

Sinlin, I think you are the 'someone' and I am the 'u'. LOL! Love you!

2011-11-09T00:03:00.004+08:00

Hahaha good news for myself.

Brandan went to download my marketing assignment and read it and he said this:

"hey
saw ur mktg
quite good haha"

It must have been not THAT bad (cause I thought mine was bad. I felt it was slightly shallow but didn't know how to improve it.) from the fact that he took the effort to message me on Facebook just to tell me that. I wasn't even talking to him prior to that. So..
Hmmm, that's good news.
Not that he is the marker but he is always very sharp in his questions and that, to me, means he is intelligent and so, him giving me the comment is YAY! LOL.

The only not so good comment, which is not bad at all, is that my paragraphs are too long. LOL.
But that is something I couldn't do much about because I didn't want to compromise my content.

2. Catching up on Gene's lecture. I must say, although I skipped like more than half, okay, I only attended two lectures, I was diligent in the initial stages and covered the bulk of the difficult content. Although I am like five lectures behind, they are okay concepts. Not THAT difficult. I am almost completing it. 2.5 lectures away.
3. And Brandan's message was a timely confidence booster. I was genuinely worried for my assignment but couldn't be bothered anymore cause it simply took much too much precious time.

2011-11-07T22:33:00.002+08:00

Taking a break (again)

1. My marketing assignment is due tomorrow.
2. Personally, my favorite subject to learn is marketing. And this spells trouble because I don't do well and never did well for subject I love, ironically.
3. Almost done with my assignment and exchanged with Weishan to vet through but not much in put from her. Sigh.
4. Wishing Teo Liang can quickly complete hers and then we can exchange or else I am going to get poor results like my OB critical thinking!
5. Taking things one step at a time. Catching up on Genes is already going to kill me.
6. I don't know if I regret buying this keyboard protector because I am now always taking it out when doing work cause it's getting in my way.

2011-11-07T00:54:00.001+08:00

1. What's the problem with Google? I can't find any information regarding the disadvantaged of short term goals.
I mean I know what are the possible disadvantages like being to fixated on them that you neglect other pertinent issues, but I need reference on how to phrase these arguments in like super good English.
That's just marketing - super good English with fair knowledge and you will do well, seriously.

2011-11-06T10:59:00.002+08:00

Cheap Thrill from Google Document

1. Ohmygod! We had a SUPERBLY productive statistics project meeting online. When told about having this meeting, I was 'hmm okay, that's going to delay my marketing project.'
But no!
2. What's Google document? It's a platform for ALL your group members, they have to have a Google account I think, to SIMULTANEOUSLY do a document from scratch or edit some documents!
Like ohmygod, simultaneously edit and ALL changes are saved and nothing would be lost. Everything and all minor changes are instantly saved on the platform.
Even if they show 'An error has occurred', all changes are saved.

2011-11-04T20:06:00.002+08:00

I am so Fortunate

Okay, another small evidence to show you I really met all the nice people on earth!

1. I was so desperate at 3+AM and he was my only NBS friend who was online. So although I know he is smart (and thus he shouldn't be taking Economics now), I still asked if he was taking economics just in case.

So turns out, no.

But look at what he said. Who will say that?!?!

Brandan has a girlfriend, just in case people start thinking about the reason(s) I am posting all these conversations here. They are all attached, so yep. (cause they are really really nice people)

However, I didn't see all these messages until like 4+PM the next day (which is today). Nonetheless, I could still manage my Economics quiz.

Background:

hated him; cause he was, and still is, so aggressive in class. Told him this before too. Hahaha. I feel he is a totally different person online on Facebook. He is really really nice and has a great personality.

Ohmygod, actually, ALL the good friends I have been mentioning are ALL from my Marketing tutorial.

Really really so grateful.

I need to go pray that my tutorial classmates are around the same as this semester cause the people are really really nice.

I rarely compliment people and when I do, please understand that I am extremely serious and sincerely truthful about all my thoughts.

I really like want to tell people about all these, but who cares about all these. As in, even if I do tell another person about all these nice people, I can't show them evidence, cannot show them exactly what they have said. So, I do it here.

Talking about Economic quiz, I realize I over-react to different matters most of the time. I was so agitated in class while checking answers with tutorial mates. I made so much noise I think everyone looked at me.

Anyway, Wei Shan told me today that most people in her class, with the exception of the smart ones, got like 4, 5 and 6 marks for statistics quiz.

So if that is true, I presume I am above average for this test. :) I am so happy about it. Then again, I don't believe that the score is due to the paper but that they weren't well prepared. So, nothing to be happy about.

Actually, I am, deep down, trying to score an A+ for statistics, marketing and OB.

As much as I acknowledge that they are tough subjects, I believe they are the easiest in the course of accountancy already.

And, I absolutely hate it that the business people are taking the same modules as the accountancy students are.

Did i mention before? I hate people in the business course. No rationale, not reasonable, but i just hate them. Okay, not hate but dislike. LOL.

Another fact of me is that I appreciate it when people say I smile a lot. LOL.

So I was really glad when Brandan (like Brandan?!?!?! Are you kidding me?!?!) said that it was good to look at my marketing group during presentations cause we smile a lot.

Okay, another thing. The marketing tutorial is 1.5hrs and I can be smiling/laughing for 1hr cause the presentations are really funny!!

And I believe that it is important for the floor to be friendly to the presenters so actually, I smile at them hoping they feel less tense. But most of them don't reciprocate. LOLL

2011-11-04T12:54:00.003+08:00

Absence

It's true that absence makes the heart grow founder.

Super love this photo of the three of us, especially my bolster!

1. So love those times in secondary school! It was such fun!

I remember how we always assembled on the ground like super early before recess time ended. We sat on the road assembly ground and sang stupid songs like Alex To's Jia Ge Wo or something. Hahaha.

Talking about secondary school, although YewJian was so annoying, he kind of brought laughter to the class. Love how he rested his chin on his palms on tables of people he was annoying.

Love how we sang Yellow Lemon Tree song for CIP projects for old folks.

Love the only night excursion conducted by Annie Lim to Mustafa, East Coast to watch sunrise and Geylang.

Love those silly projects we went NTUC to do survey for BYOBD - Bring Your Own Bag Day.

2. I am leading such a mundane university life!
3. A month's time to Hokkaido trip!!
Kind of excited but hope the it doesn't clash with modules add/drop period!
4. I studied till 4 yesterday, expecting the test today to be full of calculations but no. The questions were mostly theory-based and i think i should be able to get 8/9 but surely not full marks. Hahaha, cannot imagine if I get six again.
5. Just finished watching Top 12 X Factor elimination episode.
6. Unbelievable that examinations are like in two weeks' time!

2011-11-03T00:19:00.002+08:00

Un-productivity

1. I am taking a break ALL the time.
I take a break when I am tired.
I take a break when I am done with a concept.
I take a break when I finish one chapter.
I take a break when I complete the lecture.
I take a break all the time!!!

2011-11-01T18:49:00.002+08:00

1. Okay lets look at my results, I think i fared the worst for Economics.

Seriously, I am thankful and grateful for all the twists and turns that eventually got me out of Economics in School of Humanities and Social Sciences.

2. I have got like a B- for my first Economic quiz; didn't expect it though, I thought i did most of the right. I thought I would get an 8.

But thats the worst I ever fared, so far.

For statistics, I have got 12/14 for my first quiz and then 8/10 for today's quiz.

I believe thats what the bulk of the cohort has gotten but I am still happy and satisfied with it. In fact, extremely happy with the results for myself.

And I am thankful i didn't get the 7-theory questions paper for my quiz today. Even Yanhan thought it was difficult so fortunately, I escaped that.

My paper today was mostly calculations. Need to thank Mervyn and Kayne so so much for clarifying my doubts. Every single time i apologize to them for taking up their time of studying, you know what they say?

'It's okay, ask me more. I can learn also.'

Wow. I wouldn't have said that.

But because of them, I want and will teach my friends the way they taught me too.

So for marketing, 40% is done. 10% class participation.

OB; 50% done.

Stats, 25% done. 5 % class participation.

Economics, 10% done, 10% class participation.

I don't really talk a lot in class so I wonder how I will fare for my class participation.

2011-11-01T00:37:00.004+08:00

1. Extremely grateful that Mervyn is such a kind and helpful friend i have! Look at how he elaborated the explanation for me.

He is like super super kind!

He even said 'Tell me if you don't understand k haha'.

Ohmygod, where to get such people who will explain so clearly to me, especially when he is having the same test as me on the same time same time. (i.e. shouldn't be be busy studying himself yet he bothers to help me)

2. I tell you, I asked like uh many many questions can!

3. If i can pass stats with flying colors, i need to thank Kayne and Mervyn so so much!

2011-10-31T01:37:00.003+08:00

1. Now you know why I am always stressed when my quizzes get nearer; the nearer the quizzes, the more time I spend here (because the quizzes are near!)

2. Currently, okay not currently, but before I came here to blog, I was doing stats and talking to Brandan Chen on Facebook.

3. I tell you, he is like the most aggressive guy in the marketing class. Hated him at first. LOL.

But there was once when I happened to talk to him after presentation and he was actually very friendly within his group and after marketing class.

Kind of scared though its quite fun talking to him.

4. Hate it when i ask someone some question and the answer is 'Google?'. (!!!)

2011-10-31T00:35:00.003+08:00

1. I want to die. Everyone busy doing their OB project and no one is free to entertain my stats questions!!!

2. Okay great. Kayne just answered my question.

3. I tell you, everyone is scared of me for talking to them over Facebook. Everyone that I go 'Hello ____' on Facebook, they asked 'omg, you asking me stats is it' and then say 'you come and stress me again'. LOL.

4. Why all the super smart people not online?!?!?!??!?!

5. Really no choice so I have to ask them over Facebook. I don't stay in hall!!

2011-10-29T14:25:00.001+08:00

Guess what I am doing now; HAHA.

I just took out my keyboard cover cause I want to experience that exhilarating feel of typing on my naked keyboard instead of the one covered with the keyboard protector.

So here I am typing on it and it feels superbly good! :)) Love typing on my naked keyboard. The touch is better and the sound it produce is so much better! :))

2011-10-29T12:21:00.002+08:00

Some Photos, Finally!

My Marketing Projects Group! Yihong, Wei Shan, Teo Liang, Myself and Kayne.

I love this group so much because we just work extremely well together. We have different ideas but no one is angry with anyone for giving negative comments. We are all very liberal to feedback!! Everyone just work really really well together. The middle girl contributes like the most and is the smartest and critical in our project. Hahaha. Thanks to her that Wayne finally said that 'you are the only group that managed to include..'. He complimented our content so many times!!! YAYYY!

Yihong is like the lame guy who is quite pessimistic all the time but nonetheless, always printing color slides for submission for us.

Kayne volunteered his hall and TV lounge for us to do project and always helped us guard the toilet cause we used the guys' because his pass doesn't allow us to enter the locked girls' restroom. Hahaha.

Weishan is super nice! we always have lunch together and discuss about the boys in our marketing class. Okay, not in the class but just the boys in group 5. LOL.

YAY! So happy that the marketing presentations is over! :))

So this is my Organisational Behaviour project group; Myself, Bernice, Suxin and Christabel; Can't really stand the project but anyway, Teo Liang and I collaborated and said we will laugh loudly at each other's project cause its meant to be funny and we know it will be lame. LOL.

2011-10-25T15:41:00.002+08:00

1. Oh, I met Khim geek for dinner to pass her presents. I was still feeling guilty that I didn't make any cards for her.
2. And you know what, I feel the awkwardness when there is silence. My mind just went 'faster think of what to say. Any topic.'
3. Seven more days to one month before Hokkaido trip! YAY!
4. No YAY anymore because that means its seven more days to one month before exam ends. So long!
5. YAY tuition ending soon, next wednesday! I can't wait for it to end!
6. Sigh. I haven't been posting photo blogs.

2011-10-25T15:29:00.002+08:00

1. Taking time off to blog. Hahaha. I am just too bored in school waiting for 4.45 to come so that I can leave for project meeting at Hall 16 today.
2. As you know, i bought the keyboard protector for my macbook and i have such a bad habit of removing it so that i can feel the silicon itself and also my keyboard. And now, i feel that the protector no longer fits it so nicely as before. :(
3. But, I still prefer typing on the original keyboard. It sounds nicer. :) And my group mates complained (ohmygod. self enlightenment on the difference between 'complaint' and 'complained') that it is very difficult for them to type on this silicon keyboard. LOL.
4. When friends complained to me that they are sad over their results, I feel very sad too, for them. I feel sad not because I am gloating at their plight but because I understand how it feels too.
5. I cannot imagine examinations are in around three weeks' time. OHMYGOD!
6. Hate it when people tweet tweets that are not theirs. i.e. they are suppose to retweet them or label it 'RT' and not just tweet it as if its their own. Seriously, plagiarism!
7. YAY, around an hour more to go.
8. I wanted to go home after statistics today but it started raining so heavily! Hate staying in school for projects!
9. I hate it when group members are ALWAYS late! You can waste your time but don't make me wait. Punctuality, understand?
10. I love my Macbook! :))

2011-10-21T00:46:00.001+08:00

1. I seriously wonder how my dad brought up my sister and myself. It is so expensive to feed myself I realized so I don't know how he actually managed to feed us until now.

2011-10-20T02:42:00.002+08:00

1. Installed Microsoft Office for Mac and am loving my Macbook even more because I can do almost everything here except printing. YAY
2. Watched X Factor and I feel so happy that Philip Lomax and Chris Rene got through!
3. I think my favorite subjects for semester one are Marketing and Statistics.

2011-10-18T08:47:00.002+08:00

1. I bought the keyboard protector and am loving it. It feels like I am putting contact lens for keyboard.
2. Tried not taking nap yesterday but I couldn't take it. I could only do work till 1130pm. Sigh.
3. Examination in exactly one month's time. Dead.
4. I am loving my Mac so much but I don't understand why I can't read PDF files. Sighhhhhh.

2011-10-16T21:47:00.002+08:00

1. I think perhaps i should make do with just a second lower class honors. I think I really cannot make it. It's really difficult. Sigh.
2. I am still loving my Macbook. :)
3. I am going to be dead. Examinations in a month's time and I have not started on revision. I am super worried for myself. I am thinking if I should stay in school on days with no tuition to study because seriously, if i come home, I just sleep.
4. I am so dead for examinations. Ohmygod.
5. Actually, I think i want to take back all the thoughts about the (poly) students who quitted school. It is really difficult. And they can quit because they have a diploma.
Fortunately ( or unfortunately) for me, I have no diploma.
6. I was super angry with my student.

The question is:
Raja gave $3 to Ahmad. Ahmad then gave $5 to Raja. Raja now has $18 less than Ahmad. If Raja has $41 now, how much did Ahmad have at first?

Okay, maybe this is a little tough for a primary three. So i let her try, she (obviously) didn't manage to do it and then I went through with her. I spend like 45 minutes on it. The other 45 minutes on other questions which she said she understood after my explanations.

Guess what, she didn't do all the corrections for the above questions. She said she didn't understand.
Ohmygod. My blood was boiling and I seriously want to yell at her.
I asked her if she is still interested in having tuition because it is perfectly fine if she wants to quit.

And I actually spent an hour the next tuition explaining the same raja and ahmad question which i believe she still doesn't understand because I gave her a similar question and she couldn't do it.

You know what she is best at? Duplicating whatever I have just went through.
Fortunately or unfortunately, she cannot duplicate the content of previous tuition.

KILL ME. I think I won't want to take her anymore although I believe I will need some income to compensate the money I spent on this Macbook.

7. Monday is here so quickly.
8. Actually, I now look forward to school on Monday, Wednesday and Friday because these are days I get to see JinHao cause we are in the same lecture. Hahaha.
9. Finally trimmed my fringe and it is of a good length to be let down and not pinned up.
10. I so want to apply for Kayne and Yihong's hall. It looks so much like a condominium.

2011-10-15T15:53:00.002+08:00

1. Hello I am blogging with my Macbook Pro. It just arrived around half an hour ago.
2. I think one bad thing about this Macbook Pro is its aluminum case. I think I was slightly electrocuted quite a few times already. But other than that, this Lion OS is not bad. It has auto-correct function and whatnots.
3. But I find it weird that it has no other programs like Paint or alike.

2011-10-09T00:19:00.002+08:00

1. I want to kill myself for doing so badly for my critical thinking essay. Shit.
2. I want to buy a new laptop but no money. I want to buy a better printer but no money.
3. I wonder how my group did for the marketing project. Hmmm, Wayne only said that we had the content and that he liked the interaction.
4. Anyway, lack of practise and little memorising made me did poorly for my presentation. I forgot that i had to give out sample loyalty cards to the cards so Yihong took over.
5. Met Mr Ho and only remember three sentences he said (to me):
a. Every year that you are on the Dean's list, the school will be notified. Same thing if you get a first class honours.
b. Don't underestimate yourself.
c. If you set your mind to it, you can do it.
6. LOL. I think he believes in me more than I do myself. Okay, maybe he says that to all his students. HAHAHA.

2011-10-06T01:15:00.003+08:00

1. I spent a long day in school with my marketing project mates.
2. We did rehearsals for our presentation in the TV lounge of this male friend.
3. My two female group mates were urgent and went to toilet. But they went to the male toilet and some guy entered after they went into their cubicles. LOL!
4. When I needed to go to the toilet, we couldn't find the girls' toilet!! It's like level 5 and we got lost in the building. Laughing all the time while feeling very urgent.
5. When we finally found the girls' toilet after asking a random guy, we realised we couldn't enter because we had no pass to scan. Tight security for the girls' toilet.
6. So we went to level 5 for the male toilet.
6. We saw this caucasian guy, quite cute. He smiled to us because we were like giggling while waiting for Kayne to check if there was anyone in the male toilet. The caucasian guy is from California, here for an exchange programme. He said that their courses are 1000 bucks each semester. You can choose ANY course you like. No restrictions like limited availability or grades criteria.
7. Yeah, that was the best part.
8. My first graded presentation in NBS. Sigh.
9. I am still super scared to present. I was trembling even though it was just a rehearsal with my group mates.

2011-10-01T00:59:00.002+08:00

Random

1. I am writing the script for my presentation on Friday. I have project meeting tomorrow.
2. I am going to write random thoughts that come to my mind.
3. I learnt not long ago that we can actually justify our text in Word Document.
4. I don't know what is Google Doc. but I guess it is something great for project work. I have yet to try it.
5. I love watching X Factor and crying along with the contestants.
6. I am more productive at night.
7. I was quite happy just now cause I managed to clear some concepts on Statistics.
I still have not lost touch with that feeling of satisfaction when enlightened about a concept.

2011-09-28T01:28:00.002+08:00

Update

1. Taking a totally undeserved break again. Sigh.
2. Huimin says everything is going to take a turn for the worse after recess week. Even the statistics professor warned that whatever we are going to cover after recess week is a little difficult.
I doubt so. I am sure it is going to be insurmountable.
Ohmygod. Kill me please.
3. So with that, I am contemplating what I should do with this recess week. I don't know if I want to take a break with it, like take things slow, or work hard.
4. But whatever it is, four days have already passed. Iam only left with five days. Shit.
5. University sucks man.
6. I am quite thankful for my tuition kid's parent for accomodating me. I frequently change me tuition time. I think at least 50% of the time, seriously.
And a few are because of project meetings ending late but most of the time, it is because I was too tired to go it.
So I apologized to the mother for always changing my tuition time and I told her it was because of my school work.
It's kind of indirectly true okay. My school work makes me VERY tired every single day, no matter how short the day is.
And when I am tired, plus the student doesn't get what I am trying to teach, I get super frustrated and shout at her more easily.
And since that is 'not the way to teach', then I take a break and change the time according to me. Of course, that is not at the expense of her studies.
7. I was super patient with her today.
8. The problem with my student's chinese speaking family is that she is not exposed to English enough. Tuition alone won't help. Storybooks are essential, really.
I don't even read a lot so my command of English sucks now. And I cannot imagine my student's. She cannot even get the spelling of simple English words right and I just cannot understand.
They are words that I am very sure a primary 3 kid should know and would know.
Sigh.
9. Whatever. I don't know if I am still teaching her next year. I have a feeling the parents will sack me because I keep changing the tuition time and that I understand totally.
10. Even, IF, they want to continue, I don't know if I want because I am really tired. And teaching waste a lot of my energy, seriously.
11. Projects. Projects. Projects. I don't understand why we have to have so many projects!!
12. Guess why I am tweeting less now. My dad is on tweeter and he followed me like I don't know when.
It's weird. I may just block him cause the reason I have a twitter account is that I can say whatever I want without considering how others will think of me because of what I have said.
13. YAY Kg is busy and we are not going back to IPP tomorrow. Happy like mad.
14. I have decided that I will not do a card for Kg. I will only give her the gift I bought her. I have nothing to say to her, seriously and making a card means I need to write a lot and I don't have much things to say.
Besides, whenever I recollect the entire episode. my blood just boil again. LOL.
15. And whenever I meet her now, I listen to the things she says and tells me about, they just become my rebuttals. Seriously.
She once said that I am taking Accountancy and this is like living in the shadows of my sister and I should pursue whatever I wanted to.
(She meant it as it is. At least that is how I feel.)
BUT, I am quite pissed with that. I wasn't initially. But the more I thought of it, the more insulted I feel. Are you saying that I am no opinion of my own?
Anyway, I bet a lot of people think that I am just following the footsteps of my sister.
Sometimes when I secretly check her tweets, (okay, not sometimes. I do it all the time.) it just seems to me that she is tweeting whatever her sis tweeted about?
Like the hype over Westlife, KPOP etc. I saw her sister's tweet and then she would tweet about it in the same way too.
Isn't it the same? Call it influence or following her sister, to me, it is just a different aspect of whatever she called it the 'living in the shadows'.

16. I know I am so bad.
17. But, I don't think of all these bad things all the time. Actually to be honest, I think about our friendship all the time, like what a pity to lose it. Seriously, all the time and that sucks.
Then again, the more I think about it, the more I feel it is NOT a pity to lose it. Am I going crazy and heartless?
18. I have lots of bad thoughts whenever I see her updates on Facebook. I KNOW I AM SO DAMN BAD OKAY. I HAVE PROBLEMS CONTROLLING MY THOUGHTS.
19. So, to not be patronising or 'fake', I am not going to give her a card and shall just give her a gift and pretend nothing happened.
20. Actually, there are a lot of things I comment to myself whenever I see her updates and I wanted to type it all here but it is dangerous you know.
21. I don't know who the hell reads this blog besides the intended readers.
I know there are others reading it.
22. Unexpected audiences just keep me changing my URL and I don't know how the hell people can find this url when it's like so personalised and I wasn't even the one who created it.
I have changed it so many times that I have no more ideas of personalised URLs.
23. I don't want to have a password. It's annoying and it's stupid. Except that it keeps immediate known unintended audiences away.
Sigh sigh sigh.
24. Can I have some privacy?
25. I used to not understand why the big hooha over hackers getting account details from Google. Now I know. And that's because besides the content in our accounts, they say that most people use the same password for various different account and that means that they can easily guess the password of other accounts, includng bank passwords.
26. Now you see why privacy matters.
27. I know I always give people the impression that I think super highly of myself. Whatever. I cannot control what you think of me. I can't be bothered anyway.

Update

1. Just a quick one because I am too lazy to retrieve the charger from the drawer in the room and the battery on Huimin's laptop is running low.
2. Anyway, I just got home from Formula 1 2011 Concert!!!
3. TOP is SO SO SO charming. Why why why. And I don't like it that so many girls like him too.
4. Got to know this Youtube star by the name of Charice something and ohmygod, she is so good! But I think she sings better live than on her Youtube videos.
5. Professor Cheryl Tay just released the results for our creative thinking assignment and I got an A- although by the raw score, I calculated a B+. Still, YAY!
6. But, sigh. The critical thinking is so going to pull it down. Sigh sigh sigh.
7. Busy week ahead.
Saturday: Praying in the morning and meeting Kg for her birthday for dinner
Sunday: Marketing project meeting
Monday: Marketing project meeting
Tuesday: Movie (cause I didn't want to go USS this recess week so I got to compensate them. LOL)
Wednesday: Going back to IPP with Kg. Actually to be honest, I don't want to go back at all. I see no point and just go back and talk nothing. Sigh. Dilemma.
Thursday: OB Project meeting.
Friday: Tentatively nothing.

But, need to schedule in one more marketing project meeting and not forgetting all the stupid tuition sessions.
Sigh.

Nice People

1. You know, there are really two nice people I came across. Not directly but ya, I know them.
2. This guy in my marketing group is really quite helpful. There is this girl who always doesn't have any questions to raise during tutorial but class participation is important for Marketing and so she jokingly told the guy to give her questions to ask and he really did.
I mean if I had questions, I would save it for myself first. If I have more questions later on, then I perhaps I will give her that question. And that's provided that the quality of the second question is at most the same level as the first question. (Quality of question matters for class participation marks)
3. Then another guy, also in my marketing tutorial though not in my group. The same girl asked him for advice on OB assignment and got him to explain some stuff that she didn't understand.
ohmygod, he gave very good analogy!!! Even I understand him and I still remember it now! Seriously.
And the guy said that if she doesnt know anything, she can email him. Seriously! Who will do that!! I don't even have the time to do my own stuff, and besides, that guy hasn't got his article too! Yet he is so willing to help!
4. There are really nice people around!
5. Sigh. Meeting Khim Geok on monday for her birthday and guess what, I only got her a clutch. and I have not made her any card.
I feel like owing it and returning this favour only in december when I am more free to sincerely do her a card.
Right now, I really have no time you know. But what if she doesn't understand? I mean it is true right. If I have the sincerity, I would have started earlier. Sigh.
6. Just complained to her about school work. School sucks. Stats sucks. Econs sucks. MArketing sucks.
Ohmygod.
7. Anyway, I don't know why, for all the ungraded presentations that my groups had to do, whether its for marketing or OB, both groups can't be bothered to rehearse! Seriously.
I know for OB that it was kind of obvious to everyone and the professor that we didn't really prepare well. LOL. Sigh.
Then for marketing, the tutor didn't explicitly say we didn't do well but I remember that for the past three tutorials, he praised each group that they gave something all the other tutorial groups didn't manage to. And my group didn't get similar praise. Sigh.
Whatever. Ungraded anyway.
But it speaks something about the group right? Sigh sigh sigh.
School sucks. Life sucks.
8. Breakfast with dad tomorrow morning. Technically, in another six hours time.
9. Anyway, my tuition kid is really (!!!) slow ( read stupid). She doesn't 'internalise' concepts I taught!
She cannot apply. Even 8 divided by 2 gets her thinking for five seconds! Am I asking too much? Primary 3 already and her mental calculation is so slow and it sucks.
Every lesson I say something like 'it shows that you didn't learn right?!'.
I get louder towards the end of tuition all the time. I already tried to control when she cannot answer my questions.
Such a... waste of my time.
10. I am such a bad tutor. I will be very angry. And honestly, if I am her, I would have cried.
Too bad, she doesn't learn and I get very angry. One day I will shout at her seriously.
11. In Heaven is such a heart wrenching song.

2011-09-17T02:18:00.002+08:00

Taking An Undeserved Break

1. LOL. OB Assignment not done but here I am blogging, hence undeserving break. Besides, I took A LOT of mini breaks in between doing what have been done up till now.
2. Currently, I am listening to JYJ's In Heaven. I love the song. And it feels so sad to me and my heart really aches listening to it.
I watched the MV and wonder if that will ever happen in reality; time turns back and miracles happen
3. Ohmygod. LOTS of work for me to clear. Recess week is supposedly an intense week but I made a day out with my classmate to go to USS. I think I regret promising them too early. No budget and no time.
During recess week, I have a lot of projects to clear actually. Because, after recess week, there is simply no more time.
- OB Group presentation
- Marketing individual assignment
- Marketing Project
- Marketing case study

4 Projects to be cleared.
4. I am so scared for next semester. Many graded individual presentation. There are a lot of people who can really present and speak well. I will make a conscious effort to speak proper english from now on. Tried and fail but will try again. Sigh.
5. I am extremely pissed off with my Economics tutor today. I emailed her for a consultation but she didn't reply. I asked her today if she received my email, she replied that she received tonnes of email everyday and has no time to reply all. And when I asked if she is free for consultation, her idiotic reply is that she has tutorial every day. Hello, you mean all your tutorials take up the entire working hours every day for the whole five work days?

Stupid marketing that universities give. What friendly professors whom you can consult any time. Yeah right. Ha, ha, ha.
6. I am loving my marketing group a lot and I tweet that quite often but I will refrain from doing so from now on because empirical evidence from my own experiences tell me that all the positive judgement that I made too quickly always change for the worse. Sigh.
7. Poly friend kind of quitted university and moved to ACCA. I guess JC students can handle the stress better. Poly students only have the advantage of a headstart in the study. But that is all. I believe that JC students have programmes that require more vigourous thinking.

Conclusion: JC is still better. Polytechnic, not that good.

2011-09-10T00:52:00.002+08:00

1. I wanted to blog with photos from birthday celebration just now but all the photos need to be rotated and that suck. So, no photos.
2. So happy for Bel that she has found a potentially good guy to be her boyfriend!
3. Lots of projects due for submission.
4. Even more presentations are due.
5. Friend is taking a break from school.
6. What are my thoughts about my friend taking a break from school?
Background: Studied accountancy in a polytechnic.

I think that had her dad not comforted her by telling her that it is okay if she wants to quit school, I think the idea of quitting school wouldn't have crossed her mind.

And what is causing her to be stressed? I feel that it is herself.
No one was pointing a gun at her to order her to attend hall's functions and gatherings. No one forced her to go for late night supper.
No one told her to only do tutorial. No one told her to join a million CCAs.

Bottom line is, it was all within her control and it was her decision.

On the other hand, if she really is stressed out, then if she continues studying, something might just happen.

7. After this, I just cannot deny that there are some difference between polytechnic students and college students.
- I think college students can definitely take the stress easier than poly students.
- Poly students have more difficulties in the transition period I guess.
- Poly students have more difficulties in drawing the line between work and play.

This is pure generalisation from what I have observed over the past week.
8. I have this project mate called Teo Liang.
She is a super nice girl from VJC. She isn't the typical cheering VJC girl.
She is super helpful. She knows I am going to have an Economics MCQ and she volunteered to dig out her Economics MCQs from her JC for me.
And she is really nice to talk to. Sincere and down to earth.
No awkwardness, no nothing.
9. I am so tired already.
10. Oh shit, I need to look for an article on OB related topics.
11. I cannot believe I am in all these shit. School sucks. Trying to enjoy it.
12. Okay, I kind of like studying. But not all the projects.

2011-09-01T00:12:00.002+08:00

Reflections

1. Some lessons I learnt (not through the hard way though);
2. OB project group decided that we will hand in our first work to the leader on Friday 2359 and we decided on this on Monday which means everyone has about four to five days to think and then submit the work. And I assume that everyone knows your schedule for outings or whatsoever.
And I was secretly pissed when this girlA said on Friday morning that she was unable to hand it in on time because she was, as I quote her, going out to play with her friends and had no time to complete it.

I was like 'What the hell. Didn't you have a long time to do stagger your work throughout the many days after we decide on the deadline and you are only starting on the day of the deadline and now you are saying you cannot hand up?!'
It is the first OB project and I rolled my eyes in heart.

Then today, 2359 is supposedly another deadline for the second submission of powerpoint slides and I need more time to complete it. Reasons include me being exhausted and tired to think of appropriate answers, me wasting time typing this stupid post etc.
I messaged the leader and she was so nice and said that I can hand it in when I am done. Lastest by tomorrow's afternoon, that is.

With this, I am so thankful. I realise that I shouldn't always be so rigid to have that thinking that a 'deadline is a deadline'. I mean I know that a deadline is a deadline but actually, when working with responsible (so ironic) people, deadline are redundant. We just need to get the work done. I so shouldn't have thought so negatively about my project mate.
I feel so bad now. And guilty.

3. My marketing project group mates are so nice.
We sat at one corner and I suggested that we change seats cause I wanted to charge my iPhone and they obliged.
And they are contributing, not those who just sit around echoing others' idea and plainly agreeing or disagreeing.
4. Anyway, I gave the idea of 3D printers. Actually I was very determined that this was the best idea (I am so damn irritatingly dominant. I know. Self-awareness.) and didn't really like other ideas.
Then I thought of how I got an A for ProjectWork where the posture problem thing was one I didn't agree to it being an emergency but everything worked out fine.

I realise that the idea is actually secondary. How you package that idea, or any idea, is so much more important and thats how you actually make a difference.

4. Project works make me discover more bad points about myself and make me grateful for all the great things that happen.
5. As I looked through my photos on Facebook, I think they are all so ugly. (Rare)(Haha!) Period of low confidence.
6. Mathematics is still my favourite subject to teach for tuition.

2011-08-30T03:24:00.002+08:00

How's School?

1. So how's school? Still sucky, and getting worse as more projects commence (some already commenced without me knowing. LOL) and even more projects are due soon. 5th September is a busy day for me. OB presentation (sucks, not graded anyway.), OB Creative Thinking collage and report is due, Mr LKY dialogue session.
2. 5th Sept is OB Presentation.
5th Sept is the deadline for Creative Thinking.
19th Sept is deadline for Critical Thining 1000 report.
23rd Sept is Marketing tutorial presentation. (This sucks. Everyone in the Marketing tutorial is so damn competitve, especially the guys and that particular guy. I am so damn scared of him and am afraid that his questions would be directed at me. I regret volunteering myself to be the group leader if it means that I am suppose to answer all general questions that are directed at no one in particular.
Oct is deadline for Marketing case presentation, OB group project and finally, Marketing project.
3. Such fast paced life and I cannot keep up. Millions and tonnes of readings to do and I get so drained after reading and digesting them. The weekly routine is enough to kill me. Now, there's project to top it all. When there is project, there is stupid project meetings.
Project meeting sucks, especially when meeting with people I just simply cannot comprehend.
Lesson starts at 9.30 and they want to meet at 9am at a place far away from the lesson's venue. Half an hour enough?
5 minutes of waiting for late comers and 5 minutes to travel. That leaves us with 20 minutes. Ridiculous or what?
Rolling my eyes while typing this. I cannot believe people can think of such things. Unless they assume everyone to be punctual, which unfortunately, wasnt the case today.
4. So every single day I complain of being tired. Seriously, I am so tired to do anything after coming back from school, especially on Monday. On other days, the same thing happens - I reach home at say 12pm latest on days when I get released early but then I would be so damn tired (maybe I have some problems that cause me to be sleepy ALL the time. Okay, correction. It isn't sleepy, it's tired. I am exhausted.) then I a nap and then dinner and then ohmygod, it's 7. WHAT?!
Dead.
5. Just did one third of my creative thinking project. Sigh.
6. 0337hr now. Bio-clock is in a mess. I can concentrate much better at night when it's all silent and nobody's around to disturb me. I am fine with a different sleeping time but the problem comes when I have lessons next day. Sigh.
7. School sucks. Life sucks. I want to quit school. What's with studying?

2011-08-19T00:21:00.003+08:00

Blog, my frustration outlet

1. I cannot stand those who keep on talking in lecture theatre. Don't they understand that their voices and noise would be emplified?
2. I don't understand those who keep wanting to sit so damn far at the back in the lecture theatre where you can hear only so little.
3. Don't those professors understand that you not only need a microphone to have your voice heard but you need to place the microphone near to your mouth?!
4. Seriously?!
5. Don't they understand that people with biology background have advantage and that they should disallow them from taking bio-related courses? They do this for language electives right? So why can't the same be applied?
Students do submit educational certificates and you can check right?
6. Stupid biology terms in Genes electives make me not understand the lecture. Sat in front of the computer for another three hours to watch the recorded lecture. Understood most but still a quarter of it left unclarified!
7. Stupid CCA booths! Can't they have better organisation and group themselves according to categories like sports, clubs etc?! It's so shitty messy, seriously.
8. I am going to check out the 'cca' that have Korean language classes. It's said to offer it at special prices. I hope it will still be there.
9. Dialogue session with Mr LKY; It was said that tickets collection would be available from monday to friday, 10am till 5pm daily. Guess what, it was out on Monday's evening.
I have gotten my ticket but I think it's such a stupid system.
Perhaps they should have like daily quota as to how much they can give out everyday? I am sure there are people who won't be able to make it on certain days.
Ridiculous!
10. Stupid four hours and four and a half hour breaks in between lessons making my Wednesday and Friday super ultra ong days. Project discussion better start soon.
11. I cannot believe that the maxmimum contribution of my individual final paper examination makes only a 62% contribution to my GPA.
Some are like 40% for OB and Marketing.
Kill me.
Then again, I wish the final exam paper weightage would not be as high as 62%. Its damn high. I think I can't do well. Will try to do well.
Shit.
12. I love marketing. If offered, I would like to major in Marketing. It's extremely engaging and practical.
13. I don't know why most of the people in Group B in my tutorial group are Polytechnic students and new friends I have befriended are all poly students.
There is really a difference between college and polytechnic students.
One word says it all - A.T.T.I.T.U.D.E
14. I don't understand how people can join like 3 sports and a couple of clubs for CCAs, participate in hall activities and want to do well.
They say things like 'don't like quit lo', fucking irresponsible.
15. Blood boiling while typing.
16. She once said 'Uni is for enjoying.' Really? Or trying to create an image of you enjoying? I don't know.
17. I wish secondary school, college and university are the same group of friends.
18. Met Leehui on bus and she was with a NUS girl from some English programme in NUS. She came to NTU for a local exchange. I guess she is super smart, from the fact that she gets to go on a local exchange and that she looks smart yet sporty.
I would love to have a love exchange at NUS too. Not SMU though.
19. Sometimes I really wish I can extremely independent and don't need friends and company.
20. Seriously, it's damn fast a pace in university. I don't know if its my course only or what, but I doubt so, everything is moving so fast. It's already mid August and examination are in November.
21. I cannot wait for Beijing trip to be here.
22. It's JunMinn's birthday today. Okay, it's over cause its 1245hr now. We wanted to celebrate for him now and celebrate WuiMinn's in Beijing but we forgot all about it.
23. I bought a new Adidas bag which I love so much.
24. I love the Adidas dress that Fann Wong and the round face girl in 2NE1 worn before. It's super nice but I guess it's the price of a luxury product.
25. They teach what I learnt in 2 years in 1 semester. Okay wrongly phrased. They teach more than what I learnt in 2 years in 1 semester. And I don't know if it's open book for Economics.
26. No doubt Economics was my favourite subject in college and I did super a lot of writings for it, I remember almost nothing about it. I couldn't write a proper paragraph on demand and supply. I cannot remember all those explanantions for macroeconomics.
And I cannot imagine I need them more, and need more things than that, for my Economics paper.
I still have not check whether it's open book but I guess not.
I don't understand why other modules can state whether it's open book or not now but you need to wait for the end of the module for it to be announced for Economics. I will go and ask the professor about it.
27. I dislike 'prof'. 'Professor _' sounds so much better.
28. Enough of venting my frustration. I shall embark on my preparations for open book examination.
29. I feel that I can and that I need to write a book on guides to university life. One of the guide is that although its an open book examination, you still need to prepare notes and do all sort of things that you normally do except for memorising the textbook.
30. Oh, one last frustration.
I know you think it's tough to achieve a first class honours. I know it too.
But when people come telling me 'I only want a second class honours', I go 'Please (lor)' in my mind.
There's a phrase Mr Ho once said and I remember.
"If you can achieve an A, why settle for a B. You are not alone in the paper chase.'

Besides, they say, aim high, because you are likely to get something lower. The phrase goes something like, if you want the moon, aim for the stars or is it the other way around?
Can't be bothered.

And the worse thing they can do is ask me am I aiming for first class honours. Please, what do you want me to answer?
No? I am kidding.
'I want a second upper class.' ?
I am afraid of making such statements right at the start to new found friends because it may give a wrong impression. Yet, if I don't say it, they think I belong to the same group as them.
I am not being arrogant but I hope that they can be more sensitive in asking certain questions to try to solicit answers that comfort themselves but make others uneasy.
31. For real, enough.
32. I am listening to 2NE1 and Taeyang's songs. Super nice. And I found out that watching their videos can really help me destress but at the same time time wasting.
33. Bye.
34. Oh, its so damn weird that Leehui had her second lecture only yesterday and I had so many already.

2011-08-12T15:10:00.002+08:00

1. I hate technical problems; I don't know why the bars on my bar graphs copied from Excel to Word just wouldn't appear on the printed copy when it is fine on the print preview. I thought perhaps the problem was from the transferring, but no, it won't appear even on the original Excel file. And not even if I saved it as a PDF file or I print screen the images. Kill Me!!!
2. But anyway, I called Microsoft SG Helpline for technical support. They are super nice even though I don't know if they are able to solve my problem at this point in time. I think they won't be able to. Nonetheless, the coordinator is very nice. He asked me how did I get the license for the office and I said it's very long ago and it isn't supposed to be for a home user. Then he said that they are not supposed to provide technical support for ingenuine license. But following that, he said that he will help me out of his own goodwill. I am truly grateful for that. Thank you so much!
3. I learnt from my Marketing module that this is marketing; creating value for the customers so that the company can gain value from the customers.
4. I really hope they can solve my problem! It's very frustrating when I cannot print my bars out.
5. School has started. Tutorials yet to begin. I am only interested in Marketing and Organisational Behaviour module. For the statistics and Economics module, oh they are super boring and tough.
I don't know why the hell am I in this shit.
6.

Memories

1. I was browsing my Facebook photos and realised how ugly I actually am. LOL. Different from how I always imagine I am. HAHAHA!
And how fat I was in all the photos. I wanted to delete/untag but it's 1150+ photos. Goodness.
2. Collected my spectacles already; not bad! I like! :) But I like the one that I bought from Huimin more than the other one.
3. I bought a pair of shorts and a polka dot top. I like!
4. Recent shopping experiences taught me a few lessons:
a. Always try a size smaller than what you think best fits cause materials can expand and all sorts of reasons to make you think you should have tried a smaller size
b. Always try something that isn't your style (yet you want to try a different style).
5. I feel that I have more shorts than tops.
6. I was actually very sleepy and exhausted that I slept at 8+ but I woke up to pray to the sky for Love Luck and here I am, awake since 11+.
7. My favourite CCAs are RedCross and Shooting. I can't figure out which one I love more because they belong to different categories.
8. My all-time-favourite song that I love to listen to when i am feeling down is Bad Day. It sums it all up.
9. Back to the CCA topics.
Oh. The CCA I hated most if CDC.
It required me to do things which I hate! Like
- presentations to primary/secondary school kids (?!)
- Doing stupid stuff like CPR in front of everybody
- Really (fucking) ugly CDC Dry-Fit Polo top. Seriously!!!
10. Shooting:
a. It's a sport!
b. Hey! I have been in a sports team!
c. It's a sport that merely requires individual effort; no team work. Okay, at least for my own results. Obviously team performance is important when it comes to team results.
d. It's a very unique sports; I feel very proud of myself whenever I tell others that I am from shooting and I shoot pistol. I think my pistol number is P007.
It doesn't require you to train physically like running of what; in fact, it works a lot better if you train your mind.
It's All In The Mind and that's shooting.
It requires immense concentration and good breathing skills.
Trust me, shooting taught me a lot of things and one important one which I will take it with me for my life is to learn to calm down with good breathing skills.
The shooting competition was the first formal sports competitive I have participated in and I was stressful because I wanted to surpass the others in my school team (because I believed that I am the best pistol shooter, better than the guys too. LOL!)
You know how excited one can get whenever you do something (extremely) good in competition?
If I am not wrong, I needed to shoot 50 competitive shots exluding warm up shots.
Imagine after every shot you get all excited and you need to calm down and continue shooting and repeat this for at least another 48 times?
It was very difficult and think of the situation when the coach and my team mates sitting behind me looking at the score of my every shot.
Despite all these, I could concentrate extremely well, seriously. It was a lot of mental stress and self-pyschology.
I love shooting! And I regret not taking any photo with my (or any will do) pistol.
e. I had the best results in my school and I am proud of that because I had the least training period.
f. My coach was wonderful! Grateful for him!
11. Red Cross
a. so many good friends made! Amirah, Jasper, JiaQiang and so many others that I really love them although I really always couldn't stand them for slacking and not doing their duties right.
b. the ironing of uniforms, earning badges, the footdrills we had, the NDP trainings with other uniform groups, the inter-uniform groups camp we had (Oh. Weikeat was in the same camp can!), the seniors I met, the stupid ridiculous external camps we had to join and so many more!
c. The only gathering that I always hope to have a lot of them is RedCross Gathering. I feel extremely at ease with my squad mates, much more at ease than with 2/1 even.
12. Student Council
a. Weikeat was stepping down the very ceremony we joined. LOL. I remember him sitting two seats diagonally across me.
b. The Gopeng leadership training camp was the BEST camp I ever had in my entire life.
- Flying fox over some gigantic hole in the mountain
- The professional mountain climbing
- The white water rafting
- The dirty bathroom and bunks
- The friends
13. The next camp that I have deepest memory about is the 2/1 camp where girls from my class woke up an hour late! It was so exciting when we went running into a hall with all the other classes and boys from my class settled down. Then we had to do push-ups as punishment.
14. Secondary school was my best schooling experience and I thank Commonwealth, led by Mrs Teo Khin Hiang, for all these memories.
15. Its true when they say that memories is what you bring with you till grave.
16. Irene is quite sweet. I wished her happy birthday and she said she can help me ship stuff from Korea over.

2011-08-05T23:09:00.003+08:00

I like this photo of myself!

1. 'in a row', not 'in a roll'.
2. Back to speed writing. I hate it!
3. Actually I think that my time in NTU is really going to fly by.
4. I don't know if I want to join shooting. I would love to, but hate it if they require me to wear jeans. I hate wearing jeans.
5. And if I do go for trainings at the shooting club, I hope I see my JC shooting coach again cause he taught he so much.
6. I think I may just get a second lower class or worse because it has been proven for for all the major examinations that I never do better than my stupid sister. Oh shit.
I suspect I will end up in Ernst and Young too. Long way to go.

2011-08-05T22:20:00.002+08:00

Random Thoughts

1. I went to school this morning to print notes. Ohmygod. Lots of notes!!! You know those packs of A4 paper we buy for home? I printed a stack of notes thicker than one pack of that. And I had to bring them home with no files! I just kept them in my small bag that already had a lot of stuff in it.
It was so heavy!
2. A lot of readings to do for marketing and OB. Some articles are interesting. Others are complicated and I don't understand.
3. I can't imagine I need to take Principles of Economics!
4. I think I want and need to mingle with those smarter people in my tutorial group. The girl I met is very chatty but I feel she is just those who agrees with you on everything and appears very high but can't work. LOL. I know, I am judgemental.
Maybe others judged me too when I said that I am from Jurong Junior College.
It sucks but I can't deny it.
5. I realise that there is another unspoken rule;
Ms. HwaChong can wear Ms. ACJC's shirt but a Ms JJC can't wear Ms ACJC's shirt.
6. Sick of all the songs I have been hearing.
7. I can't wait for my spectacles to be ready! I can collect them tomorrow evening. YAY!
8. I have the room all by myself tonight!
9. Shit. I need to change bedsheet for my sister. No waonder she was so nice to change it for me last week.
10. I hope and pray hard that I have good project mates. I better go pray on Sunday. Yes I should do just that and thank for everthing that happened.
11. I bought two pairs of earrings from Clementi Mall's KateLove and bought a three-year Popular Bookstore student card. Finally.
12. New week is coming. School is officially starting.
13. I hate those paper member cards that some shops give. It's so not professional and not customised.
14. I am hungry!
15. I told myself to correct my handwriting before and after A levels. Now that University is going to start, my handwriting still remains unchanged.
16. What should I bring in my lunch box on Monday?
17. Ohno. I keep forgetting that I need to check which elective doesn't clash with my timetable.
18. My exam timetable is out. It lasts for at least ten days.
19. I am so tired. I still need to send Irene her hello kitty tote bags which are still with me.
20. I remember asking Kg why do people keep on comparing? I think I no longer bother if I do better than so and so or who is better than who but care if I do up to my own expectation.
She replied that after comparing, they will just move on with life. Yeah right, move on with life harping on the same comparison.
21. If someone wants to compare, there are like a thousand and one things under the sky for you the compare. It's endless. And it's tiring. F both parties - the one comparing and the one being compared.
22. Back to reading my readings-to-do. It's really a lot of articles. Not just newspaper articles, but readings from TheEconomists and stuff. Oh..

1. I want to buy the twelve colours palette from Make Up Forever that Michelle Phan used in her Rainbow Eye make up tutorial!
The rainbow rain is so pretty!
2. I can't stand it that I have oily eyelids and primer can't help.
3. I wonder why my CPF pay is not deposited into my CPF yet. I shall wait for the end of August to see if it is really not deposited.
4. Not a good time to dye my hair park-bom-red yet.
5. So smart of me to add my NTU's email account into my iPhone mailbox. Wahahaha. I don't need to switch on my computer to check mails now.
6. What blue shirt to wear for NBS orientation?
7. Lovin' my new nails colour now.
8. 3-in-1 utensil; fork knife and spoon.
9. I want to die of boredom at home now that school hasn't started and work has ended.
10. Beacon is going Batam tomorrow!
11. Wanted to transfer Adelyn the eight bucks but transaction history doesn't display her account number.
12. I hate that headache that I get when I sleep too much. It's worse than normal headache.
13. Sometimes I really don't understand; NBS letter says to not bring any bulky items or valuables. (?!) Then? No need bring handphone, wallet and umbrella?
Crazy.
Don't know what are they thinking.
14. Sometimes some people's thinking are so naive I wish I can knock some sense into them. I think mine are too, sometimes. That's why sometimes I rather not speak than say some things that show that I am naive or a narrow view of the world.
15. I saw those rings that I wanted to buy on a blogshop and it's sold at only 3.50!
16. Your basic English proficiency does matter. I can't stand it that a blogshop went 'Everything for S$3.50'
The blogger meant it as 'all items cost S$3.50 each'.
17. I wanted to TaoBao just now but couldn't stand it that everything is in Chinese!
I can read Chinese but it makes navigation much slower.

1. My pay for working for Adelyn is supposedly SGD392 but she transferred me SGD400. So nice of her right. I think she is the best adviser around. Whenever anyone asks her question, she never fails to answer with a smile and I have never seen her angry or anything before.
2. I have worked at Beacon for about two months and one week; it's the longest period I have stayed with one company.
3. There is such a thing called matte nail polish. It's not bad but I feel it's harder to paint it on the nails than the normal glossy ones.
4. I went Spicy Colour and bought two bangles which I saw the last time I visited it. :)
5. I decided that wearing bangles is nice cause I saw Peizhen wore it to KMW concert.
6. Then I saw that the nail colours of the sales girl in SpicyColour was so pretty I asked her what were the colours and the lady boss asked her to show them to me in EtudeHouse. So, I bought them too. LOL.
7. I think there are two kind of guys I would want to marry;
a. nerdy ones that no one wants to compete/fight with me for
b. charismatic one like SiokYong (my sis' boss) The only HK actor I can quote as an example is Miu Kiu Wai. Oh. He is so charming, especially when I see him act in the HK dramas.
8. BYSI is really getting better, at least for this season. I have bought like a lot of clothings from them. I bought a pair of pink short pants and a black princess bubble sleeved top just now.
9. Wahahaha. I got dad to increase my allowance for school.
80 weekly for 4 weeks a month. 80 for transport. :)
10. Anyway, I needed to contribute CPF and I thought that my pay was going to be less than a thousand, maybe 900+ but who knows, I received the cheque which says that my pay is 1139.50. I was so happy!
Everything I receive a pay cheque, I spend.
11. We bought the honey oat exfoliator from Bella today and I opened to see how it looks like. Goodness, the smell was so tempting!
12. Pending incoming cash
a. 30 from cousin for HelloKitty Tote bag
b. 135 from ShinCheWon tuition
c. 400+ from IPP to go into CPF
d. 180 from Yimin tuition's this week.
13. I think I need not go to school till Thursday! YAY! But if I get it wrong then it's too bad for me.
Wahahaha. Monday Tuesday Wednesday are stay home days; can play with Lucas!!
14. Huimin is on leave this whole of my orientation week.
15. I am so scared for this 7th month ghost festival. I don't even dare to go out to the living room to watch shows that I recorded this afternoon.
16. I have packed my bag for school!
17. Cousin Irene wished me for my first day of school, so sweet. :)
18. Aiyo, I really want to watch those shows I have recorded! It's National Geographic. And I need water now.
19. I have decided that I will put colour corrector and concealer to school. I really can't go to school with my dark rings.
