love-struck.

This is Aaron, 炎亚纶.
I knew him through 霹雳MIT, though I had already knew of the existence of 飞轮海, Fahrenheit.
In this taiwanese idol drama, he acts as the son of a famous detective. However there's something insufficient in him that he couldn't enter police school. Therefore he ended up in Sheng Ying and eventually, MIT. Mysterious Incredible Terminator. However, the term MIT also meant Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a private research university in Cambridge. Such coincidence eh?

He acts cool in this show, but there's something in him which attracts me. Probably his stern looks, the way he investigates. Probably just because I like detectives.

This is the girl which (i think) he would fall in love with, in the drama. Not all the series are out yet.

Next, you won't be surprised.

It's Robert Pattinson. The main actor in Twilight. His full of make-up face really intrigues me, for some reason.

Maybe it's the hairstyle, maybe the pale complexion he is supposed to present. Whichever it is, it's working out. He definitely had the looks of a vampire, perfect in every sense, and slow in speaking so as to match the speed of a normal being.

Don't you think he looks better in Twilight, too? But he did looked funny with that hairstyle in the movie though. And I couldn't believe girls actually giggled upon his appearance. ...

No need for me to introduce, anyone who knew me, should already know JJ Lin, 林俊杰.

Maybe he started out looking nerdy, but he kept up with fashion. And look at his dimples! Not everyone has. Well, not that i'm fascinated or what.

He acted in 原来我不帅 and I think he acted well! There were many scenes he had to play dumb - as in exaggerated since it's a taiwanese idol drama - and it was really comical.

He was the appointed to be the Ambassador of the WCG 2008 by Samsung. Of course I didn't attend, I didn't even know till it was over. But it's alright, I'm more into songs anyway.

For his previous albums - well, they all had a storyline - i didn't quite like all the songs. Probably because they are more slow-paced or too hip-hop. But i do like him, a lot.

His newest album JJ陆 has songs of all types, from love varying to hip hop and to condolences. I've already heard of the more smoothing songs since I found them online. After I got the album (great thanks to my moon) I discovered the rest. Even though people may say, he got some well-known singers in the album so as to publicise it. However, with the mixture of the artists, the songs went really well.

I especially like 黑武士, with JJ's vocal and 阿信's lyrics, it was fabulous. Once heard, most people could tell it's written by him, coz his style is there. A change of singing style to a different type of lyrics, the match is simply wonderful.

Not to mention, 街道, inspired by Dr Moon & Mr Mars. The tone is very catchy and I really think he handled it very well, singing the best out of the song.

醉赤壁 is most likely one of the songs for 赤壁II. All the more I want to watch. JJ music world~

我还想她 is more of the usual JJ style, but this time with a different touch. It's not as slow-paced and, I may add, boring. There's more variations in his songs now and it's really, amazing.

小酒窝 is definitely nicer than 被风吹过的夏天, since the change of female singer. Personally I feel that 金莎's vocal is too high and doesn't blend with that of JJ. However, this 蔡卓妍's voice is much better, together with JJ's. Basically I don't get the meaning of the older duet. For this, I know. Mesmerized by the dimples. You just have to look into the meaning, really.

I like all the songs in this album. And I believe, this album is the best so far, in the entire music world. :) JJ rocks!

mummy <3

mummy's so nice. i said i am very broke and she said, next time before i withdraw ask from her instead.

gives me more motivation to earn more money. how i'm open to persuasion but not coercion. oh, she has a terrible temper - she gets really irritated by a couple of small matters and then connects them with some other irrelevant matters. how genes work.

<3,
kat.

kuishin-bo.

it's jonathan gan's birthday.~

went to katong shopping centre for singing with mingyue, mingyuan and engliang. samuel and his gf were there, but might as well take them as not there. there were only 4 of us singing. it was funny most of the times and hey, my singing's not that bad haha. at least when i'm not lowering my tone. "she will be loved" and "原来".

went off at 7pm as we were supposed to. almost overslept my stop but for some reason, i reacted fast enough to ask the driver where is suntec city. usually i would just wait there and look around, figure it by myself, too late to say i want to alight.

weijie, jon, bryan, sam, hs, mary, gab, ws. each person was $42 rounded off. i had a lot desserts before starting with main course. the soup over there tastes weird. the raw tuna tasted weird too but raw salmon was especially nice to me though i'm not a fan of raw meat. the others were okay. there were plentiful of snow crabs and i had my fair share so i ate my worth i guess.

the special thing about kuishin-bo is that, every hour or so, they will ring the ice-cream bell and limited desserts would be given away on first-come-first-serve basis. with lucky draw, which 1 person from that table would be given free buffet voucher for immediate use. there's little main course. well, being a japanese buffet restaurant, the highlights would be sushi so that's the way it is. very ex, but i'll go again with the same guys if i'm not too broke.

great day spent with 2 different gangs. (:

more happenings. definitely at least for next week.
i had a haircut`
people said it's better hah`
in my opinion it's weird`

learning driving!

Haha. I think I'm gonna fail, I'm really gonna fail. 10m question left untouched, 9m question incomplete, 18 marks question with WRONG FIGURES. Haha good luck.

Probably I haven't got into the 'study mood' thus the last minute studying, not revising for I haven't done a bit of reading. Probably my urge to achieve a gpa if 3.0 isn't high enough. Probably I don't think I would be disqualified for double electives. Probably no matter how badly I have done/am doing makes not much difference. Probably how well I'm going to do would not improve my gpa. Probably, probably.

The time of the year, for a 4I outing. But why is it such a chore haha. There's TOO MANY in a class. Not all replies me immediately, if at all. Oh man.

I signed up for BTT! Went with mingyue, mingyuan and chunming. Total $27.40 includes $10.70 for an e-trial before the real Basic Theory Test. I wanna learn Class 2B motorcycle! Mum suggests I find someone to learn with. Anyone?? :)


Christmas is coming! This is the festive for breakups?! REALLY. Friends of my friends, and I kinda expecting one more, but I probably won't hear about it even if it happened. I wish they will recover fast, and know that Love is all around! (:

Most importantly, I read xiaxue's blog after like 500 days and found this indulgence.
Indulgz Bistro is offering this Christmas set meal for $89.90++. YOU may think it's super expensive but hey, I looked through the menu it seems worth the while! This is one of the instances that I wish I have a boyfriend, even if I were to force him to go and give him a treat. But of course he would reject the offer but go with me anyway. Haha. Maybe 2 years later, or 5.

guilty!

Never have I wanted to play so much before.
Never have I spent my entire 3 days watching videos before.

This phase only happens before tests/exams when I'm already unprepared, and made it worse.

My mum has been really nice to me these few days though. Causing me to feel more guilt.
These 3 days, duck rice, chicken rice, duck rice with braised egg were for lunch;
KFC twister & waffle, 和记 猪肠粉 for breakfast;
apple pie for tea; chicken abalone instant noodles for supper.

haha i love to eat. Eighteen Chefs' ice-cream was really nice with the chips. jennifer and i tried that $7.50 three cheese (fute, parmesan, mozeralla) omelette and it was oiishi. the mango smoothie with strawberries was really nice too, glad that it was worth the $3.50.

wednesday Food For Thought, with dhatch!
friday signing up for BTT (finally) with my moon!
21st meeting 4i, if nothing goes wrong hurhur.


i don't understand all the topics. i skipped some tutorials. i skip lectures, even if i went, haha i disturb dhatch. i have to work really, really hard. worse of all, i have to rest early if not i can't think. i'm not gonna repeat history and up my GPA to 3.0 yea. can't let myself or anyone else down.

study time.

hahahahaha. it's suppose to be study weekend, a long one indeed from friday to monday. but i chose to make use of that to START watching MISS NO GOOD 不良笑花!

hahaha it is funny alright but at the start of the show i really didn't want to continue. total 14eps, 15hrs++ spent. i'm so tired to study and, i haven't start at all lol. am i pro or am i what.

STUDY. CMA, INT FIN, FOI. i'm gonna make it. i have to increase my gpa if not my electives may not be AA + CAC lol. i am SMART. i should at least get a 3 since people in my course can still maintain 4 omg.

i love november rain. december's rain is fine too. (:

this is an important month. hah.

post-birthday treat.

for all sorts of reasons, no names to be mentioned lol. well, just one.

let's only mention the happy things, forget about how badly i did for the basic calculus test and how i didn't manged to meet sicheong. (CALL HIM ASAP)

it was raining. there i was, sitting back facing jeremiah and his gf. no matter how many times i've tried, i couldn't connect to TP-Secured. since he was on his way, i had myself prepared to find him. however, being muddle-headed sometimes, he went to engine school LT 52 entrance G instead! i walked as fast-paced as i could so that he wouldn't wait long. he even sheltered me with an umbrella. so sweet right! so sweet.

there we were, haha deciding where to have dinner. naturally i would suggest the buffets i've longed to go. it would be too filling so we didn't go ahead. final decision, Tung Lok at East Coast! (actually he said Fei Cui Xiao Chu but oh wells.) the rain was still heavy and pouring down. the ride was quite long, probably coz of the slippery roads. anyway, i want to save $20,000 too and then buy a car which should probably cost around $50,000. then i'll repay the installments in 2 years' time which would be $1,000 or above each month. this is my target. i want to drive!

i realised we had a lot conversations today. i mean, today's the most natural one with no silent moments. probably coz i was in a good mood knowing our dinner would be good haha. we walked around the bowling alley and the arcade. feeling hungry, i had this darn good brownie (it's the name of the brownie haha so mcdonalds) and he ordered a hot chocolate with marsh mallows. it was kinda weird for the presense of the mallows wasn't it. anyway the brownie was good after the heating and the additional chocolate sauce. the cake was soft, with chocolates of sweet and bitter taste. just the type i like most. (:

after i was done with my brownie, he helped me get a cup of iced water. i've been thinking of getting it after i'm done, but he's faster. haha so isn't that so sweet of him? the cup writes: ICE (cool) + CUP (i forgot) = SMILE (DELIGHT) it's kinda funny coz i don't think i was in delight drinking the iced water. i was smiling coz of the sweet gesture and not the drink haha. his hot chocolate arrived with a chocolate powdered star and some designs. it's kinda tempting. nice coffee art!

we just continue chatting again till it was 6pm, when Tung Lok will reopen for dinner. then we just waited awhile while looking through the course meals menu and waited to be seated. we took sometime looking through and deciding, and finally ordered. Beijing Duck with the super crispy skin, wrapped in egg crepe and sweet sauce and cucumber. such a delicacy! next was scallop with rice cracker bowl with brocolli with crab and roe, it was heavenly! our duck meat was sent away to fry with rice, it turned out dry haha. the people were a bit over-enthu, kept wanting to take away our leftover cucumbers, so we let them after their 3rd try. also, refilling his bowl, so he let them during their 2nd try, even though he was too full haha.

i tried Pu'er, Xiang Pian, Tie Guan Ying today. haha so much tea! i wanted to see if i tried before, and if it's nice. so, TGY, P then XP. most bitter to least. i prefer the strong taste TGY just like how i love my white coffee taurik, owl brand. him, on the other hand, is the opposite from me haha. anyway, for dessert, we had chilled mango pudding but it was the squashy concentrated one and i prefer the jelly, bouncy one. then i thought of Sakura at simei, how it downgraded to the kind i don't like. one less place for good food yea.

he said he has something to pass to me, i was wondering what. then after the dinner i realised it was a post-birthday treat hahaha. and the present, i got them after he sent me back. i think he reached the camp quite late hope it didn't matter, as what he said. oh, and the bill for 2 was $98.75 hahaha expensive but it's probably okay with him. i was shocked and i was touched. so sweet right! (:

nothing words could say. special treatment, no doubt i'm his favourite haha. he was wearing this adidas All I Need Is <3 shirt and he doesn't know what's that creature in the heart haha. it'll be so sweet to have a boyfriend like that. raymond promised to celebrate his birthday with me coz he neglected me while busy with projects. (: 17FEB2009.
if i have 2 guys i like most, it would definitely be these 2. >"<


btw, SITEX was lousy maybe really coz of economy downturn. but definitely also coz it's at expo. i earned the least, unless hs can beat that. anyway, i realised zach not as unfriendly as i thought hahaha. no, you see, anyone's first impression of him won't be very good coz of his facial expression. well but this whole clique, they click, not without a reason. most if not all, are so lame hahaha. the most happening event was, i mishit and punched him at the side of his eye. haha i was sorry but it was so funny. it should heal already right. thanks all for suffering my punches lol. special thanks to bryan. also, keyi, wusuan's friend, said i was very huggable and kept hugging me throughout the show haha. perfect height for her boyfriend. she was nice alright. good experience, happy times, BAD sales. BONUS: yue, yuan, eeyen! sicheong too! weiwei and junwei for the snacks. (: but eeyen was the one who PAID. those haven't paid, pay him arh.

timeless memories

my heart will melt if anyone give me anything from here.

haha.

my birthdayy! :))

heyy.. it was my birthdayy yesterdayy. okay, i had a number of celebrations with various people. and i'm so happy to receive all the greetings even though it was just a short 'happy birthday, kat!' :)

alright, so on friday (due to my request), our original plan was to have this Seafood buffet at Ritz-Carlton hotel but they obviously find it too expensive.... We decided on Fish & Co. at AMK Hub instead. So as usual (heh), yep, I was late but well, I was too lazy to get out after my late and filling lunch on my favourite fish's cousin - as my mum said it - 豆仓鱼. however, technically i wasn't late@! coz he decided the time to be 1845 and I reached around 15mins earlier.

the people were - Ivan Lim, Tan Hong Rui, Lim Jie Xian and this extra guy, Thomas. ivan is my gunbound friend i knew like 4 years ago, and the rest i just knew from FairyLand haha. i don't just meet any strangers one okay. i had nice chats with them before the outing. i mean, for me to want to know more about online friends, i must really like them.

coincidentally and deliberately for one, we all had New York Fish & Chips. i noticed them whispering and whispering but i didn't think much. until, it was too obvious haha. okay so here goes "fish & co fish & co GO!" and i get a free cheapskate ice-cream, vanilla flavour. but it's the thought that counts right, and it was my very first time having this, celebration.

actually i was supposed to be having dinner with Dennis at The Courtyard, but he had to accompany his girlfriend. however before we confirmed this, i'd already asked them out for dinner. just so coincidentally that it's on the same day, and dennis couldn't make it in the end. i appreciate the kind gesture and the surprise, though. :)

***

then saturday wasn't so much. i woke up late and missed fetching my moon and michelle, then met the guys up for BTT but the place closed at noon, way before we arrived. meeting gabriel and wuss, we went to this hawker centre nearby eunos for lunch. after which, we travelled to VivoCity for this movie called Body of Lies. not surprised i knew it after the credits, the male lead was Leonardo DiCaprio. we sat at the first front row, so i had a major headache till the rest of the night coz in this movie, it's pretty jerky. well, they're sort of in a war, aren't they.

thanks to jonathan gan, i wasn't the lightbulb for the two. and wow am i surprised jordan kang actually came out to meet us, after what seemed forever. so it was pretty awkward for the two, and lovingly sweet for the two. we settled at HK KimGary Restaurant thanks to adeline's past recommendation. i had the wrapped fish in egg with mushroom sauce, jordan followed suit. jon had korean noodles with ham & egg. gab and wuss had the set meal (which the white sauce doesn't taste nice and it's not that nice overall). jordan had an extra garden fresh broccoli with double cheese, but the cheese tasted like milk instead. mine was the nicest! it was really appetising and once in a million, i finished first! haha. so you can guess how nice it was. i'm going back for that same bowl.

the night ends off with jon and i at the interchange, waiting for his 196. it's been a while we had a chat over the wait and of coz, it was nice. :)

***

sunday! mum and i decided to patronise KFC after a millioneth day, and they decided to turn us away, just as it was our turn. i hate KFC and i would never wake up early just for their overly-priced breakfast, period. we went to our highly reliable Burger King instead. expensive, but it was worth every while, considering the service and the food quality. i just love that turkey ham croissantwich and those round-shaped hashbrowns.

coz i woke up early, i was basically tired and really lazy so even if i was meeting wen at 7pm, i reached 45mins later *whoops*. and gem was waiting patiently (she had to) at bugis. meibin needed to rush project and derrick, couldn't go. we went to the bbq steamboat opposite parco bugis, right in front of TopOne karaoke. overall the food wasn't bad but it was soooooo warm!!! the fish was nice and quite fresh and maybe the prawns too. notice i didn't say 'very fresh'. i didn't had my fill coz bugis village was closing and actually i had quite a lot. mainly i didn't had much rice, and mostly fed on fish lol.

they took me to bugis village and i bought some things.. well. we took bus 7 home and that marks the end of my birthday. but after that i had a really long and rare chat with steve haha. for someone as busy as him, it's hard to chat with him but all's well, for him and for us. :)

***

today, monday, the long-awaiting Singapore Flyer lol. we went to Eighteen Chefs which i've forgotten about for 2 years and the food is still as good or even better! For just $11.20 for 2, you get to enjoy a cheese baked pasta/rice, an iced tea, with an additional free ice-cream with chocolate chips! what a delicious meal with that small boy asking if we enjoyed the meal, how sweet can it get. (:

we rushed to city hall, and the 30mins flew past just like that. the peak was only 1675m (or so) and even for someone who's afraid of heights (like me) it wasn't very tall really. i thought i would tremble or something but apparently not. then off we zoomed to Popeye's the sailorman *hoo hoo* and have some biscuits or two. With discounts to Movenpick's ice-cream, we made use of it. some coffee ice-cream which was not bad, but it tasted more like Mocha than Expresso. that chocolate truffle cake was so sweet we had to play scissors-paper-stone to see who finish the last 3 bites. and that wangjie's service was so bad! i wonder if it's because her english is too lousy or she's in a gloomy mood or she just can't serve. i wonder why she has been left in charge alone. i wouldn't trust her if i were the in-charge. and it made me miss the me when i was working slogging for primetrica. i apologise for nothing and everything lol. so polite i was so shocked to realise. but shortly after i quitted, i slowly returned to my normal self haha.

this marks the end. but there's more to come. cuiwen, my moon, and simei part 2. (:

THANKS GUYS. i appreciate everything, deep down inside my heart. even if you didn't wished me, i know you remember. somehow i don't know what i did, there's a handful who CANNOT forget my birthday. gabriel, raymond, steve, jonathan gan. the others like jiekai, chin hong, daniel, derrick always make an effort to remember haha. yea i'm touched! but i really have no idea what 'charm' i did to them LOL. etched in their hearts, i guess. and i believe we won't lose touch. :)

food for thought.

i played a bit of basketball last thursday, but next day i had a whole body of muscle aches. i went to work, feeling extremely cold, then warmed up myself, back to coldness. this vicious cycle caused my body to heat up and with headaches till today. i missed 2 days of fun with the guys and my basic pay. however, as the saying goes, tomorrow is a better day.

whatever angry thoughts i said, it's in a fit of anger. my thinking is constantly changing haha. dhatch asked me to go for this usher interview at national library for their drama stage. the pay is really attractive, even better than that of SSO. the interview was, quite bad in my opinion well...

most importantly, we went for dinner after that. my only meal that day. the title of the dish is too long i don't remember but the buttery corn along with my special ham is really yummy! her basil spaghetti is marvelous too, but please, don't add any extra hotness to it.

the dessert. we found this shop because of the 'free dessert if you spend above $12' but obviously we've forgotten. the meal was filling enough. then the desserts - date pudding and brownie. the brownie isn't the normal cheap ones, it's very enriching but would taste better with a scoop of ice-cream. the date pudding, is actually more of a muffin and there's no 'date' taste! the flavour lingered in my mouth for that rest of the night and i was still thinking about it the next day! it was really special and unforgettable. even more recommended than the chocolate brownie.

i went there for that dessert that doctor recommended but i couldn't find it. as i exit, this girl was eating the velvet red dessert with white coating. no wonder! i'm going back~~ with dhatch. :D

one of my happiest day.

before i start my tutorials....

(tuesday) it all began with my 9am adjusted tutorial, my dad sent me to school. the one and only time we'd get close. being sleepy for only having 3 hours rest, i overlooked the fact that the teaching was slow, so it was pretty on track to me. then, i went over to mcdonalds for dhatch, florence, chia hui and honghui. she's still the same, not as high-pitched voice. we chatted, walked past A star and there! Chang Song, Sam Chong, Yu Xiang, Jon Gan, Mary-anne. they sms-ed me for the movie REC - long time no watch movie with them! regarding the roadshow too, mary's working so she might come over for supper.

we strolled to school, then separated to different locations. it's been quite some time i've seen them around in school haha. lecture was done quite smoothly, then commsk was short and sweet again. with nothing to do, i met xiao ai, emylee and jianyong (xiaohei). chatted with them over the computer, one after another (sat separately). after which we went over to design school for the spaghetti with sausage. it was so little even though i added extra spaghetti. sausage was well, worth it's money. what do ya expect for $3+1? not as if it's botak jones' $7 gigantic italian sausage. :o

training was tough as usual. after that, we had pretty much to talk about. that's what i like about this new batch hoho. we can communicate better i don't know why. especially agustian! and junwei, who hasn't been coming but i've psycho-ed him to go later. then there's xiao ai, and lokto with common basketball interest! also, i've gotten yonghao and quanliang 's numbers. see when the need arises hah. saucony, miss that buggy ride :D


cma really sounds like cmi to me. :/

from emotional to delectable

actually i wonder how many people really know me. i get irritated really easily nowadays and vent all my frustrations only in one place - home. i've been trying hard but in the end i just let out my emotions, couldn't control them. it's like i'm really emotional ... which is so un-me coz it's just, too expressive.

i wonder if the things i once stood firm to, do i have the same stand still? improvements are not part of growing up. it's a part of life.

i worry for my future, how am i going to complete proposals after proposals whatever administrative job i take. i wonder which of my potential job prospects is really paperwork-free.

i've been wasting enough time, time for an early good night rest and a training stretching my potential to the fullest. after the final completion of FOI, which was not part of my plan.

i'm looking people for the fullerton hotel chocolate fondue, kuishin-bo buffet, ultimate indulgence chocolate cake, choc-a-lot cake, haagen dazs double chocolate curl ice cream cake oh and i welcome billy bombers again for that 1-for-1 treat during this coming weekends! my, seeing food, my entire mood has been lighten up. i yearn to try all sorts of cakes of gelaré, secret recipes, starbucks etc etc. those which i can find much cheaper than in Singapore as compared to in Malaysia. how i wish i could drive now, with my own personal car, making trips to and forth in the speed of lightning! this is what i really want, for now.

my guitar skills - cmi still. piano - need to scout for a good centre (so much for long fingers). however, after a week of sore throat and bits of coughing, i'm no longer sick! thank God!
i hope this coming roadshow would be a success, and may we pool again~ i want to make loads of money to try different kinds of food lol. this, really is my ultimate motive for the riches. four seasons durian café with mum! soon, i hope. we, the children, need to repay the parents for their sweat and saliva in whatever they did, all for the goodness in us.

Food For Thought contributes to a good cause! Must support.
Durian road stall which seems to have good quality durians. Shall go there and see.
Hard Rock Café is also one of the places I've yet to visit. Dhatch go with me!

I'm in good mood to treats but my wallet says no all the time. :(

the podium

i have a new found liking of our school! the only mystery is why is it that in a short 5 minutes nap i had a dream twice as long.

the seats are so comfy.

you.

it's been some time since we had conversations so i'm really happy that he asked me out. he is a friend who i can chat with him just about anything i want. he does have a temper but i will take notice. guess that's why we became friends so suddenly.

he burnt his laptop charger so we went to simlimsquare. one hp original charger costs $60 and that's the cheapest we saw. then we dined at nydc, and we both ordered the lagsana. after which ice-cream from mcdonalds and arcade. i'll never miss the chance of playing the street basketball. the best thing about teamplay: better performance. my highest record was 202 and with xiaoai was 280++. first round was 405/450, second was 390+/451. there were a lot of couples teaming up and they were so good! okay, we weren't that bad either. at least more than half their score.

oh btw, i wanna apply for a debit card! for fun haha. UOB Campus account/TX account. i shall apply the TX account since it's 16 to 21 years old and the Campus account i dont know if poly students can apply or not. best of all, FOC.

mum made sushi for me just now. so sweet. :)

the ultimate pool day

1year 4months ago was the last time i pool-ed. cs pools often so we suggested going on thurs since not much lessons and friday they're celebrating birthdays (cs & hs) so, not free.

my basic calculus for business ended at 3pm coz she was sick. so the usual, library for viwawa. then yx finally replied my msg so we met in school and took 15 together. we chatted quite a bit, rather surprised we would go together and how we can communicate. in the end we were the latest other then sc. mcdonald's for dinner sub lunch, then 10th floor pool.

it was fun reliving the past when we would meet up regularly (every sat night to be exact) for pool at valley 8. those wonderful times we had, would it be the same?

anyway pool along with so many around 8-10 people was rather interesting. it's ironic that i knew tms peepz better after we left though. 2 tables amounted to $60 but it was only around $8 for the 3 hours stay. i like them alright, just that i'm getting too used to vulgarities. other than the 6 from road show, jon & weichoy were there too. next IT show at expo is 27-30 nov. 10 more ppl needed, anyone interested?


there was some misunderstandings but it's alright la. bad mood mah. just sad about the things said. 祸从口出，说得一点都没错…… aiya i hate myself for losing things because of forgetfulness. it's not as if anyone stole anything. my previous favourite panasonic v6 was left behind after lan gaming with gab mary jon etc. only realised it when i reached home. my 1gb memory card and reader left behind in lab 5 or sth after printing time-table and survey to collect the army souvenir (doesn't look like it). on monday, i realised it only today after noon. sigh.. i pray to God i'd be able to find it.. but i lost it.

i love my mum for being so understanding for everything i did or did not. for the extra care and concern for the muscle aches i constantly have. for the extra money for my wellness and being. but i spent like 30 bucks on dbl 0 entrance fee and that peach margarinata just like that. and our everyday lunch cost like 10 bucks with supper amounting to 5. then 10 on seaweed and chocolate cookies from robinson, another 10 to top up. is there any left? nooo. =/ but seriously, you earn to spend. what if you just die like that? what would be your regret i dare not think. the only savings i need is for dental and mum's cpf payment. i have no idea why is govt chraging interest on us for borrowing parents' cpf. their form of cheating money in the legal way. i want to earn more to give mum, for she had been pampering me too much...

those people i said see you soon to, come to think about it, they're so fine without me, why bother? i don't think they need us this group of friends. some others, we were best friends. too bad that's past, not possible to relive that again. i've let her down before especially.. the other, i'll definitely ask her out. that's about it..

i enjoy freedom, but deep down inside, i think i'm really envious of the duos. but no matter what, i would still have freedom. the bad thing about being alone - i'll forget things, you can remind me. oh wells. i need to change my temper, not so hot tempered too.

i love my friends.

yinhow still owes me my pay.

Marina Square Road Show

This time it's only for a duration of 3 days because it's just a road show. As usual we were trying hard to persuade people to buy our stuffs so we would get our commission. But hello, I speak with sincerity to all our potential customers.

So I sold 3 laptops and 3 ipods which means total pay would be $216. The only guilt I still have in me was that, I was supposed to 'deliver' this laptop to him, a 42km sundown finisher sponsored by adidas, but CL did me the favour instead. I hope he doesn't have a bad impression on me coz I like having good impressions left behind.

Gabriel, Chang Song, Yu Xiang, Bryan Tee, Samuel Chong, Hongshan and I.

Actually, who would come to a mall like marine square, with the mindset of getting a notebook/ipod? Sales was bad but it's sufficient for me. I just feel really bad for yx for not selling any notebook. It takes luck to sell one. Maybe he used it up during the last IT show.

There was little crowd on friday, more on sat, even lesser on sun. Conclusion is, working people don't like to get out to shop on sundays. They'd prefer fri/sat where they can stay out late. Like the club we went to - Dbl 0 at mohammed sultan road. Nightlife is soooo bustling before 2am and we couldn't even find a place to stand. Being unofficially 18, The Arena (clarke quay) rejected me! I would never forget. Haha.

So here comes the most important part:

With so little potential customers, basically we chatted our way through the entire thing. The most funny part was, Billy Bombers became our lunchtime favourite. The Obama burger was 1 for 1 and only gab and I got a pair of vouchers for some other discounts. The weird thing is, they only gave it to us when we all went on the same day. But we shared among ourselves and all ate the fish & fries 1 for 1 on sat/sun. 'Cause sat hs ate with us, he didn't had a partner so we went KFC instead. (we have coupon for that too).

It's like spending quality time together with friends in a 3 day camp. We had loads of fun joking laughing playing and just doing nothing. Though I wasn't close to them but I don't don't like them. Well I like all my friends bascially and they are, indeed my friends. They're a funny bunch of people no wonder they all click so well. Some things can't be put to words. I can only say I had my share of fun and joy. I knew them better, but still I'm quite shocked to read their blogs. Well the inner mind is different from what you perceive.

I owe bryan $1 and yx $0.70 am I that broke yes I am. I'm still waiting for my pay.... Awaits the next road show with the same people haha. Plus Zachary. He had an eye infection, that's sad. Relive the 牛老师 times. WE ARE GOING POOL ON THURSDAY YAY! it's been a year or over that now. Aidan, where are you?

I remember super clearly Chris WONG said I look blur. Please, I am NOT. I just don't know how to reply you when I'm just sick of you, repeating.

TPTKD!

Eek! I think there's a virus in my beloved notebook. I can't check my mail no matter what I do. Need to get the Norton Antivirus software from weiguang soon.

Yay, I didn't waste money on taxi! I was really on time today though others reached like 2 hours before me... Thank God there was more than enough time for me to settle down, though I wasted 30mins of bus waiting. During my grading, there was so much space but we cramped together. This makes me pissed off. Hence I was nervous and shaking so as you can see, phew I passed.

Woot. I really spent some quality time today with the rest. First was at Carl's Jr., then the arcade. I didn't know so many love basketball! My, are they strong. After half a round I'm already tired. Oh we played this stupid ball-throwing game and because some of us are tall, it's pretty easy to score and well, cheat. Haha but the fun is there! They were gonna watch Eagle Eye but nope, it's not time for me for that. We chatted on the floor in front of PS gv till their showtime. Then, Augustine and xiaohei (whatever his name is i forgot) and I went to the dhoby X-Zone. Xiaohei was pretty good in Initial-D piao yi~ Yea, we played the street basketball too. So my whole body is aching but I'm gonna train my arm muscles to break my high score record of 2-0-2!

I love TPTKD. :)

**Oh! Jerome mentioned something super important today at Carl's.
"Actually, we are all related."
Yes, we all are. You know, since primary school no, since kindergarten till now you never know how many you really know so it's pretty hard to make sure how you're related to anyone anyhow. Especially since EVERYONE (or almost) on Singapore was not born here. Most of them died in war, remember? A lot are immigrants. China, Malaysia, Indonesia, uncountable. Thus, maybe my forefather (in china) was your forefather's neighbour! :o
like, how are you so sure all your ancestors are REALLY from Singapore. formerly called, 《新洲》.

yesterday, all my troubles seem so far away. (karaoke)

haha. wednesday, 24th was howard's birthday. there was winnie, dennis and howard's friend xinyi. well, i knew them through viwawa. can't believe i can make friends while playing bridge man. but i'm not even close to them, mere friends. so when they said they're going ktv to celebrate, i was really hesistating.

coincidentally my boss gave me off the next day. on account on his birthday, he's actually quite nice la, and winnie, i went. their favourite hangout is bugis arcade. we went to topone opposite, timing was 11pm to 5.30am. spending such a long time together in a room, i don't feel so distant. they're okay la just feeling really weird that he said he's asking his closer friends. there were only 5 of us, i thought there were more so didn't want to go.

overall i enjoyed myself. he just doesn't really express himself well. perhaps because he's malaysian, i feel closeness. this makes me miss defeng man. wish he could come over to work soon.

原来我不帅 is a comical drama serial starring JJ Lin. i have absolutely no idea how long it's been out. yesterday, i realised a lot of songs which i've never seen/heard before by him. anyway, i'm watching this short 13 episodes drama online. this rekindles my passion for him. haha, JJ rocks.

after LONG hours of streaming, i'm finally done wtih Kungfu Panda. rocks the world. i love kungfu if you don't know. and i love panda. i used to hug my sis's gigantic panda every night. and being FAT makes him so adorable and cuddleable. should have forked out time to watch in the theatres for the credits.

thinking about depressing issues saddens me. however i feel happy immediately after. because of such a rare meet up and i was touched by all your words and actions. because those are really, rare. :) thank God we're still keeping in touch.

star graze and sea breeze

Raymond <3

pasir ris park. he was supposed to go at 9pm but it dragged on for another hour. he wanted to go. i wanted to go with him. makes me miss secondary 4 times more though.


some people, love them too much to hate them.

my boss.

he is very overly flexible, funny in a sense, and full of philosophy. things that you would have never thought, yet so true.

actually i know la. but coming out from his mouth, the way it came, was really laughable.

people who are frugal will never be rich.
they only spend $5 a day so no need to be rich.
people who know how to spend, (enjoy at the same time)
are the ones who will be rich to finance their spendings.

alamak sounds like business finance.

i was working alone (not today) then the 3 of them were talking in a room, so loud i could hear and then laugh to myself. haha funny but definitely enjoyable environment. compared to a strict and no-slack environment, this no-rules place makes it more conducive to work in, at our own pace...

Han Jia Xin, i've been searching hi and low for you for 3 days. why do you sleep when you reach home. why do you not go home when i called. why did no one answered when you were home! and why did you not hear the thousand knocks and noises and the dreadful trains passing by. ...

no more ice-cream!

i can't believe there are SO many food products from China and the most unbelievable thing is that, the poison in these products were there since 2005.

meiji, dutch lady, walls, magnum etc. most disappointing thing was, i still have an unfinished box of mini poopers. the mini cornetto, i'm left with one box plus. i have no idea how much of those stuffs i've been gobbling up since that year.

some things are so unexpected. i loved meiji. and walls. :/

mummy, it's over!

well except for the fact that, mummy doesn't know hah.

YES no more studying till further notice. business finance was so difficult i really worry for the rest who might have to retake this module. on the other hand, i'm quite glad that i took the supplementary paper instead. the revision went through all the important topics that came out in section B! which is, 80marks? i didn't really concentrate on those topics though i don't know why. guess i should have trusted him more hah.

so in a sense, taking supp there's a higher chance of getting a better grade. since we all know what topics are coming out and, more than enough time to study. urgh, should have made use of that.

the opportunity cost of this paper is - 1mc with medicine ($7+) and 2 working days ($100). sad waste of money.

:) birthday surprises!

It all started with yesterday. Dhatch accompanied me to Soka association to watch the performance of ZX and JK. Then we went back to Vivo City and I bought moonkcakes with doubleeggyolks. My favourite. Actually we wanted a movie so we asked for the catalogue from ben, who happened to be working. But we haven't gotten our pay so, next time. Same for the DHL Balloon ride ya.

I have been thinking of the surprises for months! Then at 11pm I smsed gem. She called back and we arranged to meet at wen's place immediately. It was almost midnight, 2345 when she reached so I ran over and appear at her doorstep. A while later, 3 minutues to midnight, we rushed over to meibin's place. Seeing so many pair of slippers outside, and the TV was loud, I knocked on the door and saw her shocked face. Then the 4 of us were discussing where to go then her sis and bf sent us to geylang.

wen was playing cabal as expected. however, meibin was dressed and going to orchard if we had went later! we were just in time so the surprises weren't spoilt. credits to me. :D

anyway, we went to this 126 place at geylang lorong 7. my first time eating in geylang man.
蟹肉粥，2x炸鱼柳，小笼包，虾饺，叉烧猪肠粉，蘑菇猪肠粉. barley, wintermelon, honeylemon, chrysanthemumtea.
so it's like, 1/4 of porridge, 2/3 of others. and you know, that porridge only enough for 2 people. i thought there was second ordering but nooooooooo. they were all full coz the drinks were in a container instead of the usual cups. nvm, next year.

what's a birthday without a cake? at such a place, we wanted to go McCafé but geylang has more and BETTER food, we bought some yellow cake and lighted candles. after buying for over a year, the candles finally has some use hoho. we lighted for a minute before going in and sang the birthday song. no matter how soft everyone can hear la. the place wasn't occupied much and it was quiet, if not for us. so they were blowing over and over again, finally the candles really went off and no more sparkles. to be safe we washed them before they kept it as momento. :)

we could have played mahjong, or night cycling. things we all want to do. though one has to rush to orchard, the other going genting to find her date, we made a promise to go ktv next week. after that, we can mahjong and night cycle. (:
most memorable surprise i've ever made, to my best friends since primary school. some feelings never will change.
coz we all live so incredibly near, everything's possible.

oh btw, the starbitez fun meal just came. long time no eat pizzahut. heh. thanks mum! my first time trying the bitez. :D

i finally start working! woot.
i can't believe it myself too.
if you knew how much i played~
time to get money rolling in.
since i had 'advanced' my cheque, i need to earn some bucks for spare use!
like, like, birthday presents? which i hadn't get anyone for -haha- uncountable.
my mum said 'OK' to pizza hut home delivery yay! it's been long since i can't wait!
i loveeeee her coz she's trying not to get pissed off with me haha. in turn, i'm already trying hard to keep mum when i'm unhappy yea. unless, exceptions? nvm, at least she's much more understanding now heh.

i love Wall-E!
when i heard the olympics on tv just now, i was constantly reminded of the soundtrack in wall-e man. that show was a CLASSIC. -loves-

i totally enjoyed work just now. it was 7pm-10pm hahahahaha i bet it's everyone's favourite timing! most importantly, the pay. well, i was overly-excited i could return to work it slipped off my mind. see how it goes. anyway, it's probably 1000/2 because of the halved work time. oh no! i need a back up plan! but NO way to ducktours. DHATCH?! let's just go sit the DHL Balloon before it disappears. :) i give up on ducks whoohoo.

relaxed

I went over to Suntec for the so-called interview for counter position. The person in-charge wasn't there but Sam explained to me the details. It turns out that there's only a fixed shift 9am to 7pm. No way I'm spending the whole of my holiday with this kind of no-life timing and only $6 an hour. I seriously wonder why they are so many applicants applying for DUCKtours.

Anyway, I was pretty relaxed. I went shopping after a long time. Adidas, Royal Sporting House, Lacoste, G2000, Gold Heart, Citigems, Levi's.

I need a pair of sneakers coz my Nike sports shoes is falling apart. I walked around RSH trying to find one. Instead, I found one sports shirt to my liking. After trying and much thinking, I bought a black Puma sports shirt for $33. Then I entered Lacoste. Even though Crocodile did not exactly copied Lacoste, personally I think Lacoste is more original. I spotted this $129 green polo shirt. And also (I can't remember) a perhaps $69 red polo shirt. It's too expensive for a shirt so I'll wait till the season comes. I've been eyeing on the formal blouse in G2000. I tried it, thought for very long, finally bought it. $69 purple with grey stripes long sleeve formal blouse hah. Still hunting for a pendant, I entered Gold heart. Found one quite simple and elegant $298 but I didn't buy. There's something missing from it. Few steps out, there stood Citigems so I looked around, and found one to my liking. I thought for really long. Roy was very sincere and approachable unlike Vincent, who was trying hard to get me to buy instead of serving me. Well, Roy cleaned my pendant and explained a lot to me. The one which caught my eye had multiple gemstones and with his 10% + original 30% discount it became $231. I liked it so I set up my mind to buy it. I was only looking around but that, was really colourful and special. I didn't had enough so I had it reserved for $50. Next I quickly went over to Levi's and tried some boot cut blue jeans. Surprisingly one fitted but there was no time more importantly no money to get it. But I shall return to get the pendant and the jeans hah.

To whoever who doesn't like Wall-E. Please, keep your opinions to yourself. It was so nice and what? Now you truly understand silence is gold? Nooo. There was no silence please. The movie was not for environmentalist too. It's partly describing what the Earth would be like in 1000 years' time and the other, everyone has love to give away whooppie! Moral of the story: if you sit in front of the computer all day long and too lazy to exercise nor work nor doing something productive, you'll become fat and can't move. You'll just roll. The animations were wonderful. :) Love it.

i hated Olympics

Lol I'm very excited right now because I saw someone familiar in Xiao Ai's blog. Last place to find this guy Gabriel Chan who is so familiar I searched him up on facebook. Indeed, he was already Ashley and Zen's mutual friend. At a community where we called it "Ninja-do". Wow, it sounds so distant to me now, whenever I think about it, think about Jie Kai.

2008 Comex IT Show was over. So was the hectic 4 days, almost unbearable but really enjoyable. It was the first time working alongside so many friends and having fun. Jonathan, Gabriel, Mary-Anne, Yu Xiang, Chang Song, Bryan, Weijie. I seem to have left out some guy, but nevermind. Well it was really funny, snatching business or helping each other out but they thought you are trying to ks. I worked closely with some of them, not excluding Wei Dong and Jia Jiun. Friend of friend's friend well, Wei Dong being 190cm tall, attracted a lot of customers probably because he was very noticeable and good-looking. What the hardest part was, I was sick.

On the last day of my paper, my headache won't go away and my forehead began to heat up. I took cab to school, to check if I could take the paper halfway then decide to just see a doctor and re-take the supp. It would be very troublesome to whoever's in-charge so I decided to be nice and off to see a doctor. I was assigned to room 3 at Tampines Polyclinic and this one lady took over half an hour. Seeing the next door's patients going in and out so many several times, it was really getting on my nerves. Anyway, I went back school for the MC, and took the Business Finance paper from Dhatchayani. I thank my friends for their utmost concern. Really appreciate all that. :)

Well, I lost my voice. If it wasn't for the job I wouldn't waste money on the medicine. It was really miserable for me. Having no voice I lost my ability to convince. So basically I didn't manage to sell a lot of the Mac and ipods but so did many others. There were too many salespersons la. Best seller must be Wei Dong, that's all I can say. I heard him convincing others, he was good with all the knowledge. Unlike us, we were really clueless till after we tried to promote. Actually I thought I could click with Jia Jiun 'cause the feeling he gave is really alike to that of Donald's. Well, I had no voice to chat. I wanted to earn more money. Overall working experience was good. The only sad thing was, no dinner at all for all those nights. I used to go to NYNY with Jordan every night after it ends but well, at least I didn't spend. I realised I've lost weight probably because of the greatly reduced intake. Light breakfast, late lunch, no dinner. Stand and work all day long 11am-10pm I'm pretty sure it'll be the same for you.

I'm waiting for results and the exact date for my graded supp paper. Never thought I would get this, chance. I'm gonna work with Yin How and try the Belgian Chocolate waffle at Golden Mile Complex hawker centre and see if it was the same as the one at Tampines. Friday, I shall eat my heart out. Seriously I don't believe in dieting, it's such a waste to say 'no' to the food.

I want to swim. I want to try the Chocolate buffet at Fullerton hotel. After I've earned some cold hard cash I guess. Somehow I feel I'm not earning enough. There's so much to spend on.
Who wants to swim with me, JX?
Anyone fancy a Chocolate buffet? :) FEEL FREE TO ASK ME I VERY FREE. the most take leave.

10 things i hate Olympics for
no pushing daisies
messy programmes schedule
no taekwondo on ch5/U at night
no warnings about not showing the tv programmes
complicate matters led us to thinking our shows are not aired but they were
looooooong celebration to the ending was really time wasting
even lesser choice of tv programmes
irritating commercials keep repeating like the event schedule
and how Singapore won a Gold medal after 60years
MOST IMPORTANTLY: the commendators were irritating repeating what we already HEARD/SAW/KNOW. stupid. they were totally redundant i have no idea why Singapore channel U need them.

chocolate indulgences

"Chantico hits Starbucks on Jan. 8. It will be sold in the USA and Canada but could expand worldwide"

I was searching for my favourite Starbucks drink and I came upon this article.

Basically to sum it up...
"It's very rich, decadent and a real treat. If you like dark chocolate, you will appreciate this thick drink. It's not for for people who don't appreciate chocolate."

The power of words, I can really imagine and taste the drink! I so want to try but sadly unless I fly to USA or Canada for it. Well, maybe 10 years later.

I guess I miss Starbucks. I should sit down and have a cup of Java Chip Frappacino some time soon. As for my Chocolixir, it can wait. I yearn for that Belgian Dark Chocolate ice-cream more. But it's not available in Citylink Godiva. There is this review that describes it such that heavenly is an understatement. Oh my, I would really love to try it! Perhaps the outlet at Vivo City would have?

In the sea of my memory I remember one such shop called Indulgence but I can't remember where exactly it sites. While trying to look on Google, this Ultimate Indulgence Chocolate Cake caught my attention. Man, it really does look ultimately indulgenable! I absolutely love fruits and strawberries are one of my tops. That is like my dream cake!! The other Choc-a-lot Cake isn't that fascinating but because of the chocolate bits, it's definitely worth a try. Most importantly, it's in SINGAPORE. :)

Speaking so much about chocolate drink, ice-cream and then cakes, I can't forget Awfully Chocolate. I remember having a whole cake divided by 3 as our dinner (my suggestion of course) and we tried the ice-cream! It's so special it's in a box and the spoons we used for our ice-cream were re-used for eating our dinner. Such convenience. Not to forget to credit the food, the cake was rich in chocolate but too much of it one would get sick. However the ice-cream, wow it was indeed awfully yummy chocolate ice-cream with a super strong taste of chocolate. That's the BEST chocolate ice-cream I've had so far. If only I had the chance for Belgian Dark Chocolate ice-cream.....

**NOOOOOOooooooooooo Godiva stopped importing the Belgium Ice-Cream! No wonder it always says "Not Available" hmph! Well, a staff told me Hagen Daaz's similar......

a date with jx

let's keep this simple. since i can't just copy and paste the template i found on blogskins, this shall be it.

business finance ended early today as it was pushed forward. thanks to TPC! so i went home straight. i did as i planned it to be. i've finally watch [A Walk To Remember] it was indeed as nice as what the others commented. although the getting together part was pretty expected, the others were not. but the illness part is so like the typical korean dramas haha.

we went to gelaré to have half-priced waffles with ice-cream and extra chocolate sauce. i was later coz i missed the 2 buses coz i forgot about the tickets and walked through the whole interchange to get it.

[Money No Enough] was pretty Singapore style since it's a Jack Neo's film. this wasn't as touching as the previous productions. well, the first one wasn't exactly produced to force out the tears. overall the concept is good la, just some parts really too dramatic. well, typical Singaporeans like it can already. i like it alright.

we were on a rescue mission! a cat was stuck?! well, you'll have to see the first scene to understand the situation.

new blog!

yea, it's been a while since i've wanted to move back to blogger. i've finally thought of a blog add which suits me just fine.

let's hope this will survive.
