Woohoo~

Zzz... boring day. Went to help my ah ma and it's quite happening there ah, so many lion dance group came, I think 3 in total and I totally can't hear what's the people are ordering, but lucky for me, I can lip-read a little :P

Haha, anyway, saw a 财神 with one of the lion dance group. Then I realised it's the uncle that sells fish in the market nearby! Anyway, here's a really blur picture of him (taken when he walk pass) :

Haha, maybe a bit familiar to some. He use to be an actor in Mediacorp, the one that plays gangster everytime? Lol, anyway, it's quite easier to recognize him from his beard! It doesn't stop here... after this, my cousin and I saw Mark Lee and gang! Haha, saw an aunty took autograph from him and another person took a picture with him. 

Went home and was kind of sick. Sore throat! Too much good food already. Lol, time to eat more bland food :P Reports due on Tuesday! And need to do past year paper by tomorrow!

Wah~ siao liao ah...

Hardworking~

Haha, can't believe that I leave school at 22 40 ! Lol, went to school at around 14 00 to do the Micro B project. Good thing is that we finish our blog already! But there's still the Micro B reports to go :( 

I finished my portion quite early while the other peeps are doing their part. So I was like looking around and replying to my interpal friends. But the time didn't go to waste, manage to finish 1 report and a few other's introduction, so hopefully I can finish it on time. 

No special event for tomorrow, so I think that I may stay at home to rush the reports, and hopefully get an okay grade for Micro B. After all this is done, then can I start my revision. It's so satisfying when you finishes something this big and in a blink of the eyes, another semester is almost over. Time sure passes quickly, kind of looking forward for the holiday, yet there's a part of me that dreads about it. It kind of allow me to refresh myself yet at the same time, slow down my momentum. Kind of contradicting :P

I still remember a time in my life that I wished to see the rising sun, shining onto me. Yet for now, I sometimes dread when I see the sun, knowing that there is work to be done. Nevertheless, it's still better to be a ''day'' person than a ''night'' person.

I'm still finding the reason for me to smile everyday...

Long long day...

Have IT test today, lol, so wierd ah. It's not like a formal test but it's still quite strict. Overall, it was an easy paper, but I got stuck on the last question, which in total worth 20 marks! Haha, but with my intelligent guess and long-windedness, I managed to make it look not bad, haha, of cause with some sense too.

A lecturer there called William How, hmmm... interesting guy, trying to brain-wash us with his methods of studying and trying very hard to ''impart'' it to us. Lol, I would say, he failed brain-washing me although he make some senses in his talk. Anyway, didn't really have a lesson since the class didn't not receive and do the past year paper. 

After that, when to Ping Ying's house for steamboat and Mahjong session. Hehe~ cute doggy, I would say. But the voice box of the dog got cut by the previous owner. The steamboat was filling, with all those food and curry chicken :P Haha, after around 3 hours stay at her house, we headed back to school for the lecture. Lol, I skipped 2 lesson in a row, and I don't want to win the tic-tac-toe :P So I went to the lecture to break the ''win''.

I was not done after school. Went to MacDonald at TPY to meet up with those same old peeps :P Haha, walk around, travel around and slack around. Lol, that's what I can say.

Anyway, here's something interesting:

When you fail to realise and understand a lesson, it will keep repeating itself until you learn from it, only this way will you get yourself out of the cycle and proceed with your journey in life... And get stuck again in anothe cycle :P 

Think... how long did you take to get out of the last cycle... Or how long have you been stuck in the current cycle?

Lol, it's original hor~ hehe...

Day 3 !

Haha, no school today! But there's a lot of things to do. Revision for Micro B quiz and IT test. Don't think that I'll have enough time to go through all the thingy by Thursday. Plus plus the blog and reports ! Omg, less than 3 weeks to exams and I haven't started on the revision ! 

Anyway, went to Dhobby Ghaut arcade again with James and Yuan Ling, played some games and took some neoprints. Lol, go to say that I've got potential in playing games :P Managed to defeat Yuan Ling quite a number of times during my 2nd day of playing "Arcana Hearts" :P She played the violently that I can feel the machine shaking even though it is quite a distance away   -.-''' * P.s Learn how to play properly hor~ clockwise and anti-clockwise and the buttons !*

Pei Ying came to join us and we took another round of neoprint :P Haha, so hiao but just can't seems to stop it. Blah blah blah... After that, went to Cafe Cartel for dinner :) Here's a picture while waiting for the food to come :


After that, walked towards Orchard and into the Robinsons before heading home. Lol, super tired~ School at 9 tomorrow and there's a test! Gosh~

Day 2 of New year~

Day 2, a very interesting day indeed. My ah ma prepared fish and chips for me today :) It's been awhile since I've eaten something she cooked. I still remember that when I was still in my secondary school days, my ah ma will cook food for me everyday. Somehow, it just came to an end. Nowadays, I only get to eat it once a year, during the Chinese New Year, since I don't join my relatives for reunion dinner. 

Although it was a bit oily, but it was a heart-felt meal that I had. Sometimes, we are so busy with our daily life that we tend to neglect those that are the closest to us. Anyway, went to met up with James, Ryan and Yuan Ling at Dhobby Ghaut for dinner at Carl's Jr and I bring along the chocolate mask for James and Yuan Ling to try! *I didn't know he's there when I reached there* 

Afterwhich, Pei Xuan joined us and we went to Yoshinoya to see her eat :P Here's a picture taken while we are at Yoshinoya:

When to arcade after that to play some games, and learned a new game called "Arcana Hearts". Hehe, still got room for improvement. Tomorrow going to Dhobby Ghaut again... need to wear nicer this time :P

Happy Lunar New Year !

Haha, when to Pei Ying's house and stayed overnight there on the eve of lunar new year. Lol, was very full from eating but it's a fun mini-gathering :P So during the stay, we did play a few games, Mahjong. poker cards and Risk. Lol, but no money was involved :p Haha. Anyway here's a video when we are preparing the chocolate fondue:


Left her house around evening time and went home. Lol, surprisingly no one said anything about my missing 24 hours :) Anyway, the reunion dinner was the same as the previous year's. Same dish and stuff, so went to my sis house for steamboat at around 8plus and receive a lot of free gifts from her :p 1 NTUC $10 voucher, chocolate mask, noodle and cookies. Here's the cookie and mask :  


Haha, so kawaii right the cookie? Haha, haven open and eat yet, maybe will be sharing with my friends :) Haha. Anyway, I'm applying the chocolate mask now :S It is called 我的美丽曰记, smell so nice ! Even nicer then those that you can eat :p Hope that it's good, maybe can ask my sis to buy more online :p 

Time to sleep!

Busy busy busy...

Wah~ Super busy today! I think that I have washed at least 200 bowls from my ah ma's store. Siao ah, so many people crowding round and blasting you with different order. Lol, had some slight confusions but managed to smoothen everything out :P And I stayed there till around 2 plus? Normally, she would ask me to leave at 12 plus :)

So, went to find clothes with friends and buy some stuf for the steamboat tomorrow ! Well, the journey is something like this: Bishan -> Toa Payoh -> Orchard -> Toa payoh again! Haha, good news, good news! I'm the main "cook" for the steamboat :P Need to prepare for the steamboat. Got to cook rice and warm the soup, diao~ And got to carry lots of food there :P

Need to wake up super early later! To help my ah ma again :P Think that she's opening half-day only, not sure yet. Just hope that it won't be busy like today! Haha, talking about Orchard, saw a lot of pretty girls today! *Hehe* So still can consider the trip not wasted :P Think that I've to go sleep soon! This year's new year is not for slacking but for schoolwork! So no time to rest for me... Zzz... (I miss the day that I can sleep until I naturally wake up...) :P

Long break!

Yeah, it's the start of the long break! Can't wait to slack abit. But during this break, there's a lot of things to be done. 1st, Micro B website. 2nd, reports. 3rd, tutorial. I think that there is still something that I need to do but I just can't seems to remember. 

Lol, getting old liao~ There's signs of my memory goind bad. Haha, maybe it's due to the lack of sleep recently. Just hope that it doesn't worsen :P Managed to rush my IT assignments and report, but I think the website sucks ah. Haha, see how the teacher going to grade. For the report, it's okay la. First time I take such a short time to finish the report, haha, I can't even believe myself :P 

Always have laugh at Dr. Subra's lesson, his accent and use of words, lol! What also crack me up is how he describe the polarizing and changing of the charge. Lol, Attack! New year is coming! Don't expect too much from the Ang Baos, haha. 

Got to know of a very interesting thingy call the "market of artists and designers" or simply known as MAAD. For the first weekend of every month, they will set up a market that include a lot of things, selling, performing and etc. And they are setting it up at red dot traffic, red dot design museum, somewhere near Tanjong Pagar MRT. For the month of February, it will be held on the 7th and 8th, which is weekends. Anyone interested in going? Haha, heard that it opens from 11am to 7pm. So I guess I have to go there around the afternoon :P

Shopping...

Haha, when for the 1st lesson and went to the reservoir for a jog :P Well, it's more of a walk then a run since my stomach cramped. So sad that I didn't see any monkeys :( I thought I could take some pictures with them. Haha, but anyway the jog is not wasted. Managed to see a super big monitor lizard on the journey home. Here's a picture of it:  

Haha, try staring a bit harder to see it ! It's somewhere near the 2nd white strap. After that, went to Bugis to look for New Year clothes and bought 2 shirt and 1 bermuda. So in total, I got 4 new shirt and 1 bermuda -.-''' Lol, I also bought a cross earring :P which cost $16 ! Lol, but it's a bit of bling bling so it's okay. Yuan Ling got me  a necklace too :P Wahaha~ so overall the trip is not wasted! Rushing, rushing and rushing! I still have the website and a report to do !

Ciaos~

Wow...

No school today! Well actually is yesterday... (because of the 12am thingy) Still didn't manage to get enought sleep. Woke up at around 10plus after my aunt kajiao me and I can't fall asleep. Didn't went to Bugis... was having a pretty bad nose and feeling rather lethagic. Still have to buy my pants, and if that's extra, I'll buy some shirts too.

Met up with Yuan Ling to go Dhobby Ghaut because she did something stupid (*background:笨死了, 笨死了). As for what she did, find out for yourself if you are interested :P After that met up with Pei Ying for running at night. Was a really good run, lol, but still can run more :x 1st lesson starts at 9am while the 2nd lesson starts at 4pm... -.-''' Wth... Need to make up my mind. 

Anyway, manage to find the the video that we took a few years ago at my house after the cooking competition (if I remember correctly). Here:

Hehehe~

Haha, went to  shopping around Orchard with James and Maylwin today. Was a fun outing la, manage to get what we are looking for and walking around. Hehe~ manage to buy a pair of Everlast shoes and a shawl for $70 dollars. One interesting fact is that the shoes I bought is of the similar design to James's but different in colour :P

Was quite "high" today, lol, maybe I feed too much on Maylwin's vibes liao :) Anyway, before Maylwin arrive at Orchard to meet us, I saw Victoria at Shaw Plaza! Haha, she was having such a blur look when she saw me. Wah~ got to say that Far East got quite a lot of things to see and buy ah! But most of them is female apparel. 

We went into a shop that sell friendship bands, and decided to get one. Here's the one I choose:

Standard for me, black and white. Don't ask me if it's for the hand or leg, just tie :P And it's only for $1! So many design to choose from. Hehe~ now you cannot run away liao *Grimz* Haha, Lucky that I'm still within budget! Can't wait for the shopping session on Wednesday!

Long day...

It's a long day today, went to help my ah ma in the morning and for a period of time, people start crowding round the stall and start bombarding my ah ma and me with orders! Omg! I tell you, you will feel intimidated in some way and definitely stressful. But it's lucky that most customers are friendly, but just hope that I didn't make any mistake.

Went home after that and sleep almost immediately after reaching home. Weekend never feel the same, haha, have to wake up early and seems like I alway could not get enough sleep. Anyway, went to Bugis with James and Yuan Ling for shopping, but instead, we went to eat steamboat nearby after walking around abit -.-''' , so didn't get any clothes yet. 

Now, I'm creating the web pages for the school assignment and I manage to create a little bit before my mind went blank again! Haha, so was spending most of the time Msn-ing with friends. And what's worst, I've to wake up in 2 hours time. Sian~ Definitely going to sleep when I reach home later... Here's a gospel song titled "Changed":



Cheers~

This few days...

Zzz... Have not been going for school for the past 2 days. Not that I woke up late, but I just don't feel very good (mentally). I woke up early but I just doesn't seem to be motivated to go. On the 2nd day, I feel like it's like repeating the whole of the 1st day all over again. Feel like doing nothing.

But it's all good now. But woke up with a stuffy nose that last till now. This makes me super-tired and sleepy during the lecture by Mr Subra. What I thought could be a short lecture was extended to a non-stop 2 hours marathon with lots of example that I thought some of them could be left out :P

Exams is coming in a very short while and now I think I can start planning about it. 2/3 of the day have pass... and I don't think I have enough energy for the rest of the day...

Rock Legend...

Was playing in facebook, in one of the many games found there called "Rock Legend". Quite a fun game and 1st day of playing I've leveled up to level 10 already! Haha. In the midst of blogging, someone bought over my band mates! Grrrr... Anyway, here's a screenshot of my character:

Cool right? Lol, like me like that. Anyway, I still have work to do. But I will do it after a nap :p

Results...

Today, the results for the Common Test was released. I went to check, and to my surprise, I did okay even with those last minute study. Here's the results:

  • Information Technology for Life Science - B
  • Organic Chemistry                               - B
  • Microbiology B                                     - C+
  • Cell Biology                                         - D

Haha, seems like that the longer the module name, the better I score. Anyway, didn't went school today. Even since the break, I have been missing a day's lesson in school. Not really a good sign, but let's just that it as clearing "leave" for each module :P

Got to say that there's still much work to be done. But I just can't pull myself together to do this. Have been feeling tired on a daily basis for some reasons and I'm not getting enough sleep. Plus exams is coming real soon! About a month or so, and I have not start revising. Nevertheless, I'll try to turn this situation around, by hook or by crook.

Decisions...

Everyday, we are faced with decision making. It can ranges from minute things like the clothes we are going to wear to even life and death decision. More often than not, people fail to realise that sometimes the decision they make may also have a impact on the people surrounding him/her.

There are also those that have made life-altering decision, whether is it for better or worst. Sometimes, we will only realise our very own mistakes when we have reach a stage where people call "a point of no return". That's when reality came crushing down. Which can change the way we view life and even change our perception.   

I think that I have found the missing puzzle to what I'm finding. Even though it's not fully completed yet, I think that it has met the very minimum of the requirement. And definitely change the way I think. But there's still one more thing to do, which is to act the way I think instead of think the way I act. That, I believe will take me sometime before I can do that.

Life is so full of wonders... you never really know what will come next. Decisions is something that I have not been making for almost 8 years. Hope that somehow I can change that in the up-coming lunar new year... That's one of the few last turn left for this year...

Disorientated...

Feeling tired, yet I can fall asleep. Presentation is coming soon and preparation is still needed to be done. Hope that I won't screw up on the presentation. Mood swing pretty badly today for some unknown reasons. 

I was on my way to AMK hub for a haircut but suddenly a part of me just wanted to have my hair long for a little while more. So I took train home and went to sleep almost immediately. Here's a music video of Mary J Blige performing Be without you and Stay with me baby during the Grammys in 2007:

Limit...?

Tired... Fatigue... Is that any more words that's sound worst then this? Have not been sleeping enough and it's starting to take a toll on myself. Maybe I'm pushing myself a bit too hard, but I'm glad to say that I'm not on the verge of breaking down... at least not so soon.

Project and presentation are getting closer with each passing day... and I don't think that I've prepare enough yet. Not getting any closer to fulfiling my goals this year. Have been spending most of today outside instead of staying at home, which add on to my fatique. Turning into a zombie soon... I really need to find a day to sleep all I needed to.

Feeling hungry and extremely tired. Still have work that need to be done... I guess that I will do it after the nap, which I hopefully will wake up from that!

Summary of the week so far...

Have been going out since the start of the new year. School also reopened recently and have been rather packed too. Think that I'm still behind time for school stuff. There's still quite a lot of things that need to be done.

I also don't seem to have enough sleep nowadays. Feeling tired whenever I reached home but there are still things that need to be done before going to sleep. Worst of all, I still have to wake up early in the morning to help my ah ma. 

Anyway, went out today and met up with my friends, since it's her birthday. Went to eat at the hawker centre... after that when to the BBQ pit area to hang out and cam-whore a bit :P Haha, and we try to retake pictures of ourselves in the secondary school days and in the same position as the picture. Here's one of them:


6 years have passed since we last posed in this manner. Definitely, all of us have changed in one way or another and I hope that 6 years down the road, we will still be able to retake a picture of our current self and compared once again :P After that, we did some rather stupid video clip, haha, which was fun. We also attempted to make a "music video" of my friend's hit song "Prunella" Lol, which was taken and edited from Umbrella. Haha, but we failed in doing so since I can't stop laughing everything James start singing his Prunella song. 

Haha, enough of the nonsense, time to sleep :)

New year...

Happy New Year to All!

New year, new hope. Decided on a few things that I want to accomplish in this year. It's is as follows:

  1. Improvement in my studies and a better grade.
  2. Be a better person.
  3. Healthier.
  4. Learn at least one new skill.
  5. Master Tarot.
  6. Be more organised.

All of this is actually quite easy to archieve for some. But I guess I got problems in this area. At for what I'm going to do... I'm going to concentrate more on my studies and start revising. Of course, it also include getting things done before the deadline instead of rushing it at the very last minute.

Next, be a better person. I believe that no one is perfect, so improvement and getting rid of all those bad habits is essential. I also want to be more "open" (if you know what I mean). Been healthy is important. This include exercising, which will help with my breathing and stamina. Eating the right food is also another meanings of getting healthy. Less junks and more good stuff.

I planned to get a guitar and learn it as a new skill, which I believe will happen around the semester break. This can also allow me to practice and get use to singing and playing at the same time. Mastering Tarot has always been on my mind but it's one of the hardest thing to archieve thus far. Learning the symbols and meanings of each card and the story that make up the individual cards. Meditating will also be one thing that I want to do on a constant basis to keep me ''in touch''.

Last but not least, organising. Started on clearing my room of unwanted stuff, although there is more that need to go. This also include keeping a diary to record events and reminders of stuff that I need to take care of. Been someone that is not very organised, my room is messy and is not as coduesive as it can be for studying. So by been organised, it is actually a kind of "face lift" for me. All of my goals are more or less linked in some ways or another... So I hope that I can archieve most of them by the end of this year.

Signing off~
