BYEBYE BLOGSPOT, till i shift again

I AM GOING TO FAIL CHEM

FAILLLL CHEMMM

i knew it i knew it.

i don't know why but i just cannot do chem. couldn't in jc, still can't now.

anyway the paper was horrible. i know its 4 questions but they are 4 scary questions.

1) because one part can be worth ten marks, which makes writing 3 full mechanisms worth 30 marks (out of 100 total) and i DON'T KNOW ANY ONE OF THEM which means bye bye 30 marks.

i'm sure i have already lost say around 70marks at least. D: D: D: D:
i feel so frustrated with myself for not being able to remember the reactions and mechanisms. but yet again, i did study for this, which means i've tried at least half my best already (the other half is lost to not starting to study right from the start). but this makes it even worst because then i'll feel stupid for not remembering and not being able to do the questions even though i've studied.

i think i have slight "chemophobia", comes with the experience of failing chem many times over in jc.

the worst is, i can't S/U this.

waqhhhha iofhaowehfkhkjhbiergvuywakvnv,alkdnKBALKSBDASBDIASBFUEAGFUEABVFB

this is the reason why my CAP will be low this sem. thanks to chem
I HATE CHEMMMMMMMMMMM :(

i hate chem

2007-11-27T22:08:00.000+08:00

because i'm so irritated with chem and myself not being able to study chem or get anything chem-related into my head

which will affect my exam tomorrow and the 4 freaking long organic chem questions i have to do because i don't know anything

yes i don't know anything i can't seem to link all the synthesis stuff together like how an alkene can become an alcohol which can be converted to a halohydrin by epoxide (i know this isn't the best way and this is why i suck at organic chem) because i can't freaking link stuff together. secondly, i suck at drawing mechanisms because i cannot for the life of me remember where the arrow points to and which C is attacked by the nucleophile.

so this is why i have a bad feeling about chem tomorrow and this is why my CAP is going to be screwed up, thanks to cm1121

and because i don't want to fail my chem, i can't study my soci or geog or stats now because i'll be busy worrying about chem. so how am i going to study for the other modules. gahhhhh.

manzzzzz

does anyone even read this anymore? i must think of an lj address so i can shift blog.

hello!
i have so much revision left to do, i don't know what to say.
i don't know how to complete it and once again, an exam i didn't prepare well for.

anyway, i'm so excited about post-exam stuff!
what am i going to do?

girly sleepovers,
multiple shopping sprees,
CHRISTMAS SHOPPING WHEEE
falallalala (for now i have to suppress my christmas mood)
night cycling and movie marathons
jogging gymming
baking
watching as much tv as i want
cell group stingray dinner
ym camp
MY BIRTHDAY!!! :D
new year celebrations!

ohhhhh so hyped. :)
can't wait can't wait!

2007-11-16T20:38:00.000+08:00

i know i said i'm going to abandon this blog.
not yet

i am unwell, ill, sick ... whatever you want to call it.
and this is the worst time to get sick, ever, when i'm supposed to be mugging for exams.
i spent 17 hours sleeping from 9pm-11am last night and from 3+ to 6+. i will go back to sleep soon

i also had the worst lecture ever in my life, yesterday. it dragged on for THREE HOURS.
geog.
THREE FREAKING HOURS.
thanks to the lecturer who doesn't plan time well and fits like 10 presentations in one day.
and i missed the opportunity to just grab my term paper and leave.
all because of a term paper.
thank God i got a B for that paper which i more or less completed in a day
so i was trying to study animal div while sitting through the presentations and i was sniffing away. and i said that if i had a fever today and don't get well today, it's the lecturer's fault. indeed i'm slightly feverish now and i'm not well, so... it's his fault. :(

ohhh to my surprise, i got an A+ for my last chem lab report of the year (3rdand last)
i think they must be wondering how i get A and B for lab reports but fail my chem tests.
yeah i failed both chem tests. sucks. :/ i don't know what to do to salvage my chem results.
i hope the exams don't turn out like that

i am saved for animal diversity though. hahah but still lost for microbiology

in jc, As and Bs are great, wonderful, to be rejoiced...but i guess in uni its merely average and you're not really good until you get an A+ (for everything and have CAP of 5.0-which i will never ever get). i may be quite happy to get an A or B here, compared to my collection of Es, Os and Fs back in JC, but almost everyone gets As or Bs, so no big deal. but oh well, still thankful for the grades so far (including the failed chem tests)

2007-11-11T23:32:00.000+08:00

going to abandon this blog soon,
may move over to lj.
but until exams are over,
my life in visuals can be found on my facebook albums
i'm just too lazy to duplicate updates on both the blog and elsewhere
:P

2007-11-08T01:25:00.000+08:00

OMGGG this was probably one of the first photos we ever took ya LOL.

i don't really update this blog already, i'm tired of blogging

but here's a belated

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOLENE! :D

LOVE YOU A LOT A LOT my shopping buddy and GIRLFRIEND! :D

2007-11-02T00:22:00.001+08:00

Hello i'm trying to blog from Microsoft word because i'm so bored and this will probably make me type in proper sentences and insert punctuation etc. Plus there's spell check.

I'm so freaking tired. Wow freaking is a word. Hmm. So is hmm! Hahhaha – is not a proper word.

But i have to do my soci term assignment because i've put it off until today ( i have to hand it in tomorrow by the way)

Suicide i know, but i didn't really have a choice.

Stats test today wasn't very good but i sure hope i'm oh so lucky because it's MCQ and i hope i shade the right things even if i didn't know what i was doing.

I hope i don't start typing nonsense in my essay.

Ok bye.

random post

2007-10-31T23:17:00.000+08:00

so cool, i just realised my phone makes a soft buzzing sound when it's flipped open :D
i have 4 tubs of ben and jerrys icecream, because i'm greedy.
strawberry cheesecake, dublin mudslide, turtle soup and chubby hubby. yummm are you hungry!?
i love ben and jerry! but i don't think i want boyfriends like that because i will get sick of icecream, not good.
you are my sugar rushhh :D
hahha i am having a headache now
but i have to study for stats test ! boo :(
i'm so screwed i haven't started on my soci term paper, i think i have to chiong the whole of tomorrow night because now is stats time! :(:(:(:(:(:(:(
sianface, out.

2007-10-29T23:48:00.000+08:00

OHHHH STiNGRAYY
WAKAKAKAKKA KEKEKEE
i'm so bored i'll go sleep soon
i just settled on a topic for soci term paper. i decided not to be so picky and just settle on one, if not i'll never get started. so i settled for the ageing issue.
yepp.

then as i was flipping the papers, i found an article on ASEAN and the green cause. wow great timing, it comes out only after geog essay was handed in.

stats test this thursday! i think stats is the most manageable module of all 5. at least theres not as much content as chem, no readings, no lab, but i think i lack practice

met winnie jas michelle and jeri for lunch today :) photos when i upload, or maybe never cos i looked horrible. hahha but yay let's meet up more! :D

2007-10-27T15:57:00.000+08:00

last sunday's haircut. i miss my longer fringe :( grow fringe grow!

last night's cell group dinner and devotion (D&D) at sam's house with the fruit bats.

our yummy dinner from chompchomp, everything but STINGRAY, which sam forgot to collect! hahahhaa yes your PARTIAL blonde moment, we forgive you, but the stingray won't and will haunt you. :P once again, we had lots of fun and LOLed at darryl, who should continue talking so we have entertainment. saturday = satay and STINGRAY HAS TENTACLES, and samuel's unglam expressions (refer to facebook)

ICECREAM!

below's a ohhhh stingray video. enjoy and ROFL LOL LLD LLM etc.

2007-10-24T13:26:00.000+08:00

i'm beyond screwedddd for my chem test
i'm so hungry my stomach is growling :(
so colddd.

2007-10-20T22:45:00.000+08:00

photos from last sunday :)
i love photos of balloons!

uni cell group dinner yesterday. hahha sorry for being an hour late. and thanks to darryl the pregnant hungry runacrosstheroad RBG pig who treated us to side dishes at crystal jade and cheesecake and gelato. hungary. LLM=laugh like crazy. wth right. had lots of fun even though it was just the four of us. cheesecake face.

then we saw some small boy who had like 10 of the testing spoons in his mouth. lol

today i had ym camp meeting and i was almost 2 hours late cos i overslept for 1.5 hours. seriously i need to sleep earlier. met sam after ym to cut hair but as luck (the lack of it) has it, microcut was CLOSED. :( but we had a great time laughing at stupid pasar malam imitation stickers and items which had patrick star in yellow, spongebob in blue, barbie and superman looking like crap, hello kitty uno, and best of all, hello kitty and TEDDY THE TEDDY. HAHAHH TEDDY THE TEDDY, thats like naming it bearbear the bear or cow the cow. LOL

and now i'm happily eating J.co donuts from batam which my parents brought back (i have 10 donuts at home now cos i bought some popdoh ones yesterday) and watching THE MAID, quite freaky.

cheese, mango (which looks very nice!), tiramisu (:D) , oreo, black jack, and green tea flavours
so far i've eaten the tiramisu and half the cheese one.

water babies. they're just nice for phototaking, they're really useless things. i want a living pet.

2007-10-18T22:40:00.000+08:00

rain and the cold night air :)

i like!

and i would like to take a walk outside now too.

but geog assignment spoils it all. if i didn't have to do this crappy assignment i'd probably be snuggled up in bed now sleeping peacefully. but noooo, i have to stay up late to complete this. my fault also for putting this off till yesterday. die lah, and i have to do the group proj too.

let just say i'm easily distracted and i'm bored and i have too many things to do i don't know where to start.

and i want to shift to lj for some unknown reason but till i think up a goodenough address, i'll still blog here.

thank God for uni cell outing, i havent been out in a week and i'm about to go crazy.

soci readings, chem test, biodiversity and everything i don't know about it.... :/

after soci test, last test of the week! ;) we went to marche for lunch and the crepes SUCKED by the way. we thought the lady didn't put cheese, then we went to ask her, then she pointed out this teeny weeny portion of mozerella. how pathetic is that. plus savoury crepes are not VEGGIE BASES, compulsory. wth, cheat money. eat at vil'age!

YAY
tests for this week are over
biodiversity test really sucked. i think 10% of my grades are GONE, just like that. i got there slightly late (not my fault i had tutorial before that farrr away) and open book doesnt really help because my book doesnt have much and i won't even be able to find things in time. i wrote the name of the bacteria wrongly, so thats a bad start. i don't have a good feeling about it. microbiology lab report was quite good but too bad that's not counted and doesn't really matter. but its good to get an A- for lab report, even if its not counted.

soci test was alright, i can't judge how i did because i don't know if i wrote enough, or covered enough or covered the right stuff but the questions were a bit odd. i haven't written an essay in almost a year!! i hope i pass this.

now i have to worry about geog group project, individual project, chem and stats tests... busy busy. but i took a break today, went shopping with winnie after school, going shopping with jolene tmr! ahhaha yay shopping! shucks i have been playing with facebook too much, (i bet you have been going that too! :P) but its so funny, i adopted a pet tofu, i find that very amusing. and all the superlatives, superpoke. ahhehehehhehe. hahha hhohoho

oohkay bb

2007-10-09T23:27:00.000+08:00

so tired.
didn't go to school yesterday because i woke up with a swollen right eye, so i decided to skip my 2 lectures. spent most of the day sleeping.
my sleep patterns are very inconsistent. i sleep a lot on one day and very little the next.

so i had to go to school today (ON MY FREE DAY) to hand in lab report. i made going to school worth my while by staying in school to study.

ok theres microbiology test tomorrow, i haven't done my geog tutorial...
there's soci test on thursday
i haven't done my soci tutorial...

october and november are busybusybusy months. :(

i want to sleep

everyone having tests/exams/projects/assignments and whathaveyous, hang in there, jiayou!
yay for those who have finished their promos/Ns/prelims...

2007-10-07T22:47:00.000+08:00

aaegfkjawegfh. stressed.
lab report is killing me.
i don't know what to write anymore, i can't come up with discussion point, i have to go to the library and probably spend hours looking for books. i don't like looking for books and i want to come home early to study! plus, i don't really like chem, i was never good at it to start with.

:(

and it worries me that i have microbiology CA on wed and soci test on thurs. which means i only have tomorrow and tuesday to study for them!!!!!!!!

youth sunday update when i have time.
i want to sleeep very badly.
but i can't.
i want to sleep.
now.

stupid lab report
BYEEEE

cookie baking, youth sunday prep

2007-10-06T20:58:00.000+08:00

i'm so tired!! slept from 6-9 this morning, didn't sleep a wink last night. because we were having ym camp meeting and then baking cookies! we baked almost a 1000 cookies mind you. 8 hours to bake 800 +/- cookies! :/ then we continued again in the afternoon. woah i'm swearing off cookies for the next month or so. photos from today! i didn't bring my camera so please settle for my 1.3mp phone camera.

look i got a new superman tee!!!
nah kidding, this is part of the decor for youth sunday!
very nicely done! :)
making door gifts!
the superman bunch
finished products. so pretty!

al learns how to bake! to quote him, "next time my future girlfriend has you to thank for my baking skills". ok! sam chua extra lah most of the time he was sleeping. hahha :P
cookies ! :O
janice, al and alvin's pet machine, the mixer. he's the chief operator of that. pro already

oat-looking, funny-tasting batch. the freaks of cookie nature. because we forgot to put sugar in the wet mixture, so we added it after putting in the flour etc. and the batter was weeping! disgusting but we still decided to bake it. the first cookie came out quite nice, the rest were horrible. :( a waste of chocolate chips and peanut butter.this wasn't taken yesterday but at the last meeting about a month ago. just sent it to my comp. damn gay lah

tomorrow we're going to wear school uniform to church! haha haven't been in my sch uni for a longgg time. borrowing candice's because i dont think i can fit into my own set anymore. :(
\

i'm having fun when i'm not supposed to. i have a lab report to do by monday, tests on wed and thurs.. i'm supposed to be studying! ahh. may God help me to plan my time and do those three things tomorrow.

going to sleep now, 10pm. goodnight!

2007-10-03T17:32:00.000+08:00

josh's sendoff, PL FUNFAIR!

2007-09-29T19:32:00.000+08:00

woke up very early today to send josh off. 5.45am. i slept at 3am. we'll miss you josh! come back soon for cell group. during breakfast we were all "planning" our trip to europe, was quite funny cos darryl talked about europe every 5 minutes. siao liao i have to bring bread to school everyday. but oh well, no harm dreaming about going to medieval castles, paris, the huge topshop... who knows, we may really make this trip. IF

went back to PL for the funfair!

yeah the last time we had a funfair, i was in sec 3, we were dancing some mermaid and seaweed dance in the hot sun... :) although it's different this time (and the stalls were in the shade), felt good to be back there as "old girls", literally. the lower sec girls were so cute and tiny, there was one girl who came up to jasmine and went "jiejie buy from me lah plsplspls, pls jiejie" maybe that's why it's better to get younger children to sell things. you can't bear to say no to them.

after 3 years, i still miss PL, still feels like home. :D

all the weird rules, staff, "girls i said stop running!", "unless you don't want to go home..."

next funfair i'll be 23!

next year's musical year!

mr low getting dunked, pearl getting dunked. wow they sure earn a lot from this.

cindy, candice (pls see next picture of her riding the rodeo HAHAH), sweedy, candice and jas
3(?) generations of PL girls.
ALI BA THE BA. pris me and jas. ahha mudu clan

2007-09-28T17:56:00.000+08:00

sian face =/ everytime i want to go for a run, it rains. rained yesterday, rained today.
i'm tired. i woke up at 1+ but i'm tired. been revising soci chem and a bit of bio the past week. 5 modules but there's so much to cover, not to mention i haven't started on stats and geog.

since the rain has stopped and i don't feel like going jogging anymore, i'm going to feed you with photos of food from the jap buffet! :)

seafood

sushi!

kaminabe. no offence but i think this sounds vulgar.

chawanmushi, teppenyaki, salad, tempura (softshell crab :D, shishamo :D, and yakitori)
helpme helpme! heh i was playing with the prawn. this is clear soup which you pour out of a little teapot. very cute.somemore sushi!

MOCHI! :) so cute. nice but i didn't get to eat a lot

mousse(chocolate, green apple, mango)

coronet custard

tartlets :)

desserts! the other love of my life

my dessert plate
those little flour balls and pancakes

chocolatezzzzz :>

icecream toppings

matcha soft serve

more desserts

*pls note that i did not eat everything shown here, although i was very full at the end of lunch. VERY. bursting.

photos from sunday

keith so cute! and that's alvin lingerie boy (LING-GER-RY!)

cell group BS, couple pose, alvin chew when he was cute. :P

lastly, the cupcakes at marmalade pantry. they're so pretty, but i didn't get to eat them, and for that matter, anything on the menu because we saw the price and decided that we shouldn't eat there omg so embarrassing, so after sitting there for half an hour and using their toilet making them arrange the tables, we decided to get 2 pathetic cupcakes and one chocolate tart for takeaway. if i were the service staff i'd be so pissed off. hahaha wth, like that time we walked out of swensen's after they served us water. never going back to marmalade pantry in the near future.

2007-09-27T00:39:00.000+08:00

i spent the last hour or so experimenting with photoshop. somebody stop me. it's more enticing than studying, definitely.

i also went to kuishin-bo for jap buffet lunch today and i have a shitload of photos but i'll stuff you with them the next time because i believe i should seriously cram in a bit of studying now before i sleep. buffets are bad, you stuff yourself till you are beyond stuffed. that buffet was my breakfast lunch dinner for the day, serious.

which means my energy expended during jogging on monday and whatever other day returned in the form of tempura, sushi, japanese desserts... :<

shopping, thai food, geog field trip

2007-09-22T22:25:00.000+08:00

the past week in photos
all the photos here

shopping on monday with jasmine! :) haha you spend money queen

AMANAMS!
dinner on friday with my parents at patara, raffles city. food was not bad, the desserts are really cute because they came in small cups. plus it was free flow dessert. actually we went there with the intention of using a voucher, but we only found out when the bill came, that the voucher cannot be used with promotions, which included set meals, and we had ordered two set meals. so yeah we spent a bomb on dinner. and the previous sentence was a pretty long one.

dessert! red ruby, lemongrass creme brulee(culture fusion hahah soci) caramelised tapioca, grass jelly, longan drinks, yam cake, sago with coconut, sticky rice custard...
spring roll and crispy noodle, tomyam soup, some pork dish, vege, black olive rice, green curry with prawns

and the geog field trip today. very tiring. we were walking around from 830 to 4 pls, killer. i'm so tired now i'm having a headache. quite informative but when the prof talks, he can go on and on. visited the chinatown area, then down to city hall and lastly fort canning.

i like this photo because the shophouses are so colourful. and i think the architecture is really cool.

at a chinese temple.

this is mediacorp doing some filming along boat quay. sadly the photo isn't very clear, but that dude in brown jacket is elvin ng.
at the armenian church

fort canning park
and look yihui! your dad opened the archaeological dig exhibition thing.

climbed up these narrow steep steps to the top of a fort.

thank you enlin for the carebearsss :) wheee

it's mid sem break already! i don't feel like 6 weeks have passed. i've barely been to school enough to warrant a break now. much i need it, we all need it. i have so much catching up to do this week, i don't think i can ever finish doing that but i'll just remain positive for now. didn't start off the sem too well (wrt tests) so i have to work x100ly hard. why can't i ever start my school year with better grades, really i'm so tired of getting below average grades since jc started. i sure hope i don't get numb to it, and hope that i'm not unconsciously numb to it because that will be big trouble. God give me good grades pleaseeeee.

since the field trip ended so late, i was late for ym also. topic was conversational apologetics but the speaker was focussing more on OUR faith. i have a lot to think about. i think i'm lazy to think. but i will. because i recognise the importance of thinking through this. anyway random thought while listening just now. these talks and discussions just put you in such a philosophical mood.

don't go round in circles, get to the point. but points are circles too, just really tiny and filled.

ok i have to go sleep. goodnight!

you know what, i just realised that my laptop plug wire can be extended. i didn't know that the wire wasn't fully "unrolled". all the while i thought my lappie's wire was shorter that others. :/

today i saw a super narcissist/selfimage-absorbed guy on the train. he was sitting opposite me, and was taking self-portraits all the way from harbourfront to chinatown station. it was such a good LOL moment but obviously i couldn't burst out laughing right, so rude. hahaha but it was really funny. he took a photo, then looked at it, then took another one... (process repeats) plus he was alone. weird people.

i have a stats test tomorrow, lab report to do by friday, soci tutorial to do, readings readings and more readings.really sianface : bye.

we were shown this clip during chem lect break. this is so cool. try it yourself with other numbers! doesn't work for some numbers, but still pretty cool. go browse youtube for more such videos

2007-09-17T00:48:00.000+08:00

everyone at josh's farewell dinner. check out alvin kissy face and joshua bweasts. and shawn

loveeee :)

no time to say more so goodnight!

theres a cockroach running free in the house now howhowhow.

sam let me know when you're coming down ok then we all have lunch together! :)

2007-09-10T22:13:00.000+08:00

pictures from friday!
after ratatouille, we went down to menotti at raffles city to have desserts! :D
50% off!
apple pie, chocolate mousse, some cake topped with strawberry, lemon meringue, creme brulee!
the chocolate mousse rocked. encased in the chocolate mousse outer covering was chocolate lava! :) and yeah i still like creme brulee and i want to try making that when i have lots of time to spare

here are some dumb photos.

had my first ever test today. chem test. i don't know if it was alright. compared to my tests in jc, it was pretty okay because i attempted every question(except the reaction with ozone because i didn't study the ozone reaction), doesn't matter if they're right or wrong. but yet again, i'm sure i'll still be somewhere below average. 10%. it's not a lot but still significant. tried to cram last night till late, so i was superrr stoned the whole day. wanted to run but was too lazy to even get out of the house.

siannnnn.

2007-09-08T01:20:00.000+08:00

omgomgomg i'm such a kukuhead.
i was actually an hour late for soci tutorial today and i didn't even know it.
cos i wrote down in my notebook 1-2, when tutorial was 12-2.
urghh i was still wondering why everyone so early.
aiya to cut the long story short, this is as blur as i can get. shuckssss i feel so horrible for myself.
eh very embarrassing ok.
i knew there was something wrong. i knew it. wth
i feel so dumb now
but it was an honest mistake, really.

anyway lab was quite fun we were playing with bacteria. ok not playing, experimenting.

our cell group caught ratatouille today! show's quite good. the rat's cute, reminds me of hamster. hahh yeah and the animation is great too. ohh then we went to menotti for half-priced desserts after! :) mmm, pictures when jasmine sends them

ok bye

2007-09-07T00:26:00.000+08:00

random i'm-so-bored-studying so i come and blog time.

i shall make it one of my lifetime goals to visit every disneyland theme park. hk down, paris tokyo florida california to go. :/

...travel to and in europe...

you know, why doesn't japan come up with sanrioland. not that i like sanrio characters that much but it'll be nice to have a land with little twin star and hello kitty and that black thing and keropi. imagine what wonders hello kitty will do for your tourism industry. haha

ratatouille with the cell group tomorrow :) and :( rats (pun intended) i hope i don't think of truffle too much.

i want mooncake.
i predict that.. i'll have instant noodles for lunch tomorrow.

now back to organicchemland hehehhehe.
:x miffy

yeah my hamster's in hamsterland, doing whatever it does best. it's a place with hamsters running free but not randomly mating, running wheels, exercise balls, lots of stinking food, hamsters that poop and pee properly, mini veges, fruits and nuts ... a figment of my imagination

sleepy

2007-09-05T16:32:00.000+08:00

i miss my hammieeeee

biodiversity lecture now
so bored
falling asleep
had geog tutorial just now.
we had a discussion, and while talking, i discovered that a lot of them there are in the same boat. we took this module cos there was no other choice, we all bid for this because it only cost one bid point. and we all consider dropping the module or declaring s/u.
ok and i thought i was the only one.
good to know that i'm not alone.

i'm very tired.
i don't really understand readings
bahhh my engriishh no gud.

i went jogging twice this week! yayyy after going without exercise for ...2 months? yes lecture starting byebye

hahah my lecturer has WEIRD pronunciation.
fungus is FUN-GERS right. he pronounces as FOON-GOOS
algae is AL-GAY (hahha al you gay). he pronounces it as AR-GEE.

gee.

bye truffle :(

2007-09-04T22:41:00.000+08:00

in loving memory of truffle, my hamster.

i think it died yesterday. i didn't go disturb it today and i didn't see it come out of the little house. but when i finally decided to pay my hamster a visit, i found many small flies inside and it was lying motionless. :( so it died yesterday but i didn't find out until today! i'm such a bad owner. but just as well it died, because it's old and the infection was getting really disgusting and the icky growth, big.

2 years and a few months, i don't know exactly how many mths because i don't know when it was born.

hahha my mom and i didn't really dare clear the hamster cage cos 1)many flies, 2)it's a dead hamster mannnn eewww. so we finally got down to clearing it and putting it inside a pretty little box. the box was a sins choc shoppe chocolate box. so apt, so apt.

i'm not one who throws my hamster away so i'll probably bury it tomorrow when my dad gets home. only thing is, i don't know where to bury it.

i'll miss my hammie! hey it was my first pet okay. i'll miss seeing it everytime i take a walk to the kitchen. i'll miss feeding it and watching it sleep because that's about all it does. all the times i made sure it was still breathing when it was sleeping, i didn't actually think that it would die like that one day.

i want another hamster... or a dog.

pls note that this is a photo of it sleeping. not dead yet

now this is a photo of it, dead. the difference is, it's shrivelled up, skinny, stiff and not breathing.

2007-09-04T14:00:00.000+08:00

i am trying to decide whether i should go get lunch. i woke up at 1245 earlier, after a good 12hr45min sleep (to repay my debt incurred from the night i tried to complete my lab report). it's two o clock already by the time i have lunch it'll be 3 and that's such an odd timing. so what i'm trying to decide on is whether to have my lunch plus dinner at around 6 or have a late lunch and late dinner...

yay free day today! :) only every even tuesday. :( i have to prepare for tutorials and do my readings, which i never really get down to doing. and sometime after that try to catch up on chem etc. other than school, nothing much

ok byebyeeeee

2007-09-02T21:37:00.000+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YINKAE! :) :)

invite us over to play taboo ok

your cell group loves you! :D

yinghui and birthday cake.
eating, the cheesecake and peanut butter squares (love the squares), sam and josh reclining on her parents armchairs, and us bumming around after dinner.

so plain so i had to decorate it. oxford cell girls (we're called the oxford cell cos everyone is from oxford except.. ) without jane
the cell group plus minhui

and the cell group

bnj's turtle soup! :)

my mr krabs! he's rich, really.

want to live in my lego house? haha i took out my old lego set one evening and built this. yeah i should be studying instead of playing with lego.

studying- still have lots of readings to catch up on, haven't finished my lab report which i want to hand in tomorrow so i don't have to go to school on tuesday, and somemore readings.... and i have a chem test next week and a stats one the week after, then break for a week, and MIDTERM TESTS! soon it'll be exams already. wow. 3 weeks down, 10 more weeks to go.

2007-08-30T22:25:00.000+08:00

so tired.
i'm going to sleep soon, catch up on sleep :)
there's school tomorrow and we'll be going on a field trip to kent ridge park (the war place where battles took place and therefore making our campus haunted. hhahha nah kidding; also the run place with long hilly winding roads and quite nice "hilltop" view) for biodiversity module. so far, i cannot for the life of me catch what they're say in lectures because every so often they'll start spouting foreign and speaking in the genus and epithet manner, so everything is like in streptococcus, e.coli, askfalkhus ashfkahus microbes language. sometimes i wonder how long they take to memorise that and how many names they actually know. wahhh i'm so not going to specialise in microb. (microbee! hahh small bee. b <- this is also small b)

in fact, i don't have a good feeling about any module so far except maybe for stats because at least i understand lectures. errr okzzzzz

and i haven't exercised in a longggg time. ARJGHJGJHASGFJKHG how to exercise everyday end at 6 (except monday). jeri faster get well then we start running in school or something i'm feeling so unhealthy, and sluggish now i need more adrenaline yaaaaaaa. or anybody want to run with me on tuesday friday? :/

bye

2007-08-29T23:48:00.000+08:00

ok hello my tagboard is bored.
BORED pls. HINTHINT TAG LEHHHHH!

got home at 11plus, cos CG ended at 10, and it's a long way home
nobody to fetch me :(
which reminds me, driving lessons.
(0r get a bf who can drive hahahhah :P but more likely driving licence)

being the christian student:
1. God in every aspect
2. prioritise

it's hard to be a christian student, when it's so easy to fall into the trap of being a student in school, and a christian outside school, or worse still, neglecting the 'christian' part. it's so easy to lose yourself in the overwhemling flood of tutorials, reports, tests, readings, and mugging lifestyle. this is where prioritising comes into play, and i must learn how to be a good steward of my time, plus place God in first place. it has always been a struggle to do so, so...easier said than done, but i must try.

gahhh i was so tired the whole of today.
my stats TA has such a strong indian accent i was trying to figure out what in the world she was saying when she was saying "poor". and tutorial only lasted about 35mins. chem tutorial on the other hand, took more than an hour. i still don't get ring flipping, someone give me the 3d model to build pls. i prefer tutorials in jc, so much more lively, because you know everyone, and you won't have your tutorial situated in some ulu corner of the faculty.

haven't read my soci text yet, and i'm sleepy. ok goodnight

2007-08-28T21:21:00.000+08:00

had chem lab lesson today.
the lab is nothing i've ever seen before. wait let me recall how the labs in tj were like. ok
each student has one fumehood, and there are so many apparatus...
and there are weird people from idontknowwhere shouting for someone to keep the flask (yeah it was really weird i think that guy was a little mad, probably because they get cooped up in the lab for too long)
i can't imagine myself doing this for the next few years

so far science fac and sci modules have been okay. i can stick with this for now, but i don't know what job oppotunities there are in future. research? no.
so what?

:/

meanwhile, i have a lot of tutorials to complete, and LAB REPORT, and prep for worship and get a movie for movie screening. so many things to do.

:I chewing gum face

mind cafe and shopping

2007-08-25T01:08:00.000+08:00

shopping with jolene and sam!

this is spiderpig.

you can stand under my umbrella ella ella eh eh eh

"i don't want to grow up, i'm a toys r us kid" and the whole lot of weird songs they play there. jolene helmet head. :P

hopping

then it was mind cafe with the uni cell. we had a blast! :) we played taboo and ugly dolls and some other express yourself game. we screamed a lot while playing ugly dolls but that couldn't beat how another group there kept shouting "3! 3! 5! 5! 7!" taboo was the funniest lah, me and abbreviation (hahah i really heard some PH1101 thing, no kidding. see this is how cors scars you), "bimbotic people.... SAM!", "that smelly thing... DARRYL!" ahhaha, sam lim and bust, the "elite'' engineering people. food was good. :)

ugly dolls. i think they're ugly in a really cute way! UGLYUGLYUGLY :P

with sherms and yinghui! :)

everybody!
the cheerleader, bimbotic cheerleader, and the smelly cheerleader.
the NEL folks. me, samantha, (the woman who went "do you mind!"), and sam

quote of the day: "i've never seen her talk before.. i've only spoken to her once"
yes sam i know you have your moments.

monday! with eyin at biz fac.

2007-08-23T22:28:00.001+08:00

wooohooo it's the end of the school week for me.
i feel so accomplished today, for having sat through almost 8 hours of lectures.
slept almost the whole journey home.
come next week there'll be tutorials :(
i must start reading my readings :P and doing my tutorials and reviewing lectures.

and sleep early.
right now my sleeping hours are verryyy irregular.
phlegm phlegm phlegm. urghhh

goodnight
shopping and cell group dinner tomorrow! :)

2007-08-23T00:19:00.000+08:00

woahhh textbooks are heavy.
i have my bio and organic chem texts already. yay to 2nd hand books and the savings. to get soci, geog and stats ones

got my tutorial times slots already. i got the slots i wanted except for stats, so now i have a wednesday 10am slot. grrr. and i don't know anyone in my tutorial class.

anyway i'm still coughing :( :( :( if this was JC, i would gladly skip school for a few days.

to do:
call mind cafe
prepare for worship on 1st sept
look for movie for movie screening

went for sci vcf's cg today! not bad it was quite fun :) our wednesday cg is mega. there are almost 20 people. i will go mad leading a cell group that big.

ok bye it's mad lecture day tomorrow!

to everyone having exams now (hi sam), and those preparing for O/N/A level prelims and J1 promos really soon, all the best! you can do it with God's help! haha study hardER and take care because everyones sick and you don't want to get sick now.

2007-08-21T00:19:00.001+08:00

kiddy ride and island cremery

2007-08-20T23:45:00.000+08:00

because i like the colourful butterflies brush :) (and colourful balloons)

video in the next post was taken at serene centre on sunday after our icecream! we decided to go try out the kiddy ride! it was super fun. 3/4 way through the seat jerked, which explains why we all made noise at the same point. sam couldn't fit in it hahaha. then halfway there was this cute little eurasian boy and his sister and they wanted to play so we let them. so cute!

the video is in the next post because it can't play when i copy paste the code here, so i have to post directly from photobucket.

i spent today coughing like mad and blowing out lots of thick phlegm/mucus. :(
which led to nosebleed, again.
i also got myself two thick organic chem books, going to get the biodiversity one on wednesday, the rest probably at the 2nd hand book fair. textbooks frenzy!

yay no school tomorrow. goodnight

2007-08-18T23:25:00.000+08:00

RUNNUS!

at kent ridge park

tees

balloons :)
the great hilltop view.

the long winding road
stuff in the goodie bag

the event wasn't very well planned. firstly, the registration booths and goodie bag booth were together, causing some confusion. then there was the route. we ran the 4km mass run route for while, then somewhere along the way we went offtrack and ran on the 10km route for 8 points. so about 10 of us mass runners ended up back in school, and the officials told us we were on the wrong route. the road marshals didn't even tell us! they should have known we were mass runners and not 10km runners cos we didnt have the tag. moreover, there were supposed to be guiding footprint stuff on the ground but we only saw one of them early in the run. ahhh :( i was wondering for the longest time where the treetop walk and heritage trails were. aiya next time tell your marshals to direct properly, and put up more signs please. thanks. so we got drenched in the end. it's a good thing we didn't run back to the park.

but ok lah the whole event wasn't that bad. at least i got a whole lot of things for $5. hahaha. :P

peter pan(g) is darryl's friend. this is a really funny misprint. :P

and these were taken in school on tuesday.

i just realised that when on an overhead bridge, to your right you'll see bright white headlights, and on your left you see red lights. nice! next time try turning your head from side to side to see that.
olio at arts canteen. nice mocha! (nicer than starbucks)

runny noses and mucus are really annoying. a sore throat on wed&thurs, a runny nose on fri & sat. yeah i actually brought a piece of tissue paper for my run. everyone is falling sick and i think it's the school air. there's something illness-inducing in the air there. or maybe it's just psychological. to everyone who's sick now, get medicine, rest, and get well soon!

2007-08-15T22:17:00.000+08:00

the small bone is gone but now i'm having a sore throat
:(
I HATE it when i have a sore throat.
i can't even swallow anything properly
ow. ow. owwwwwwwwwwww

8 hours worth of lectures tomorrow.
i'm going to die of lecture overdose, waking up early, and a sore throat

oh my, there's something wrong with my friendster profile page.
apparently i'm now "saviour of the soul"
HAHHAHA wth. i hope it's not because my friendster age is 84 so they immortalise me or something.
but let me say that no i'm not the saviour of anyone's soul, Jesus is, so nope that's not my actual profile page. ohhh cool, i think God's in friendster too. ahahhhah ok whatever cheryl

bye

2007-08-15T02:19:00.001+08:00

wth i think there's a small fish bone stuck in my throat now.
thanks to shishamo. stupid fish.
damn uncomfortable!!!!!!!!
it's a small fine little bone but it causes so much discomfort.
i was trying to cough it out but i couldn't, still can't
i'll just sleep and hope it goes down tomorrow.
nothing much to worry about. but i hope i don't die. hhhaha

today i was my free day but i went down to school specially to pay for runNUS registration. before that jeri and i were in the library but we didn't really study, we just ended up talking and looking at photos and leaving to explore campus.

my arm is aching because i've been carrying the laptop around the past two days.
i'm going to build arm muscles this way! :)

erm ok goodnight.

2007-08-13T20:17:00.000+08:00

photos from last week and today

uni cell dinner on friday at vivo's carls jr. samlim is so unglam. i can blackmail him and alchoy hahaa. the guy who ate the hokkien mee. lol
the first day of school. my first lecture on stats only lasted 40mins because it was an introductory lecture. i feel so cheated, i had to wake up at 6:15am to listen to an introductory lecture?! so we had a 1hr 15mins break after that. michelle winnie (jasmine+sam) and i met up for lunch at the new arts canteen! all the queues were sooo long. anyway yay for really familiar faces in this new environment. jasmine i hope your phone has warranty! if not very wasted. after that we visited the library and the big co-op which sells almost everything and anything.
on sunday, the huge praise and worship service.
laptop lights :)
i got really bored so i took out my monopoly set and took photo of money and dice.

never ending selves of books. i may become a bookworm, :P

the simpsons

2007-08-12T17:41:00.000+08:00

just got back from watching the simpsons movie with sam and ed.
the show is really quite funny but it's a wth/whatever type of funny.
and they keep playing the spiderpig song over and over again. hahha
spiderpig lol

its back to school tomorrow! after 9 REALLY REALLY LONG months without notes, textbooks, lecture pads, stationery, waking up at 6am (which i will have to do every monday and thursday from now till november)
ok look on the brighter side, everyone can meet everyone for lunch almost everyday so i can start looking forward to breaks.
and i'm sure God has a purpose for everything (including faculty, course, me waking up at 6am)
2 hour lectures. ahhhhh

ok bye i'm off to mess up my biological clock more by taking a nap now.

photoshop brushes are so much fun. the butterfly thing so pretty right! :)

errr but i don't really know how to use the other functions yet. never mind i'll figure them out slowly

2007-08-11T01:47:00.000+08:00

cors is such a chore
CORRRRSSS abolish it!

i finally got a module, although it's not something i thought of taking
but i really don't have much of a choice. all the clashes and high bid points, tell me, what to do.
so i have 1biodiversity, 1 stats for life science, 1 basic organic chem, 1 making sense of society, 1 southeast asia (geog). this geog one is so unpopular all i had to do was bid 10 points and i'll bet i had 9 points refunded. hmm i may drop the geog one if i find some better and available module in round 3a.

the readings are up on IVLE already. woah i tried reading some ecology stuff, so boring. i hope the printed text is more interesting. haha as if. but i'll mug hard. everyday go to central library and study.

anyway we had meeting today, and we tried speaking to each other over msn although we were sitting at the same table.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY YIHUI! :)

had dinner with the uni cell. we keep going for dinner but we haven't started on any bible study. everyone is in hall except for... everyone's in oxford except for.... :P whatever man. yup but i'm really thankful for this bunch. i love both my cells! ahhh cells. :/

all the best for all your biddings everyone

2007-08-10T03:19:00.000+08:00

it's 4am and i still haven't found a module that i can take.
as tragic as that.
exam clash, time table clash, too popular i don't have that many points to bid for it, etc.
WTHHHH

i have nothing to take already!
veryveryVERY irritating.
at this rate i'm going to end up with 4 modules. :/
i know everyone's having a big problem with this system
hi we're all in the same boat
our boat's rocking.

CORS and shopping and module shopping

2007-08-08T23:47:00.000+08:00

Dear WEE LI LING CHERYL,

Please find your bidding result for Acad Yr 2007/2008,

Semester 1 as follows:

------------------------------------------ Allocated Modules------------------------------------------

Module Code : SC1101E
Module Title: Making Sense of Society

----------------------------------

-------------------------------Modules that are not successfully allocated in this bidding round-----------------------------------------------------------------

Module Code : SSA2218
Module Title: Singapore Film : Performance of Identity
Reason : Out-bidded

hahaha at least i got one of two. let me tell you that the bidding for the singapore studies module was really crazy. i think the minimum bid was 300. i put 230! thats already a lot to me now. i couldn't have outbidded that anyway. but it was really frustrating from 12pm-1pm because the minimum bid points kept increasing like no one's business so we kept going so how so how wnat to continue bidding or not? (i know those who aren't in nus probably won't know what i'm talking about but you will, soon enough) so we considered taking some other module, but this is where it's the most frustrating, either the timetable or exam date clashes with the modules already allocated. so now i have to go through the whole trouble or searching for an OKAY module to take, not a WOW THAT LOOKS INTERESTING one. i don't understand, what's so good about this system? imagine, i have to go through (hopefully) 7 more such biddings. woahhh. oh but when i chalk up enough points, i'll be one of those nuts who put bid a few thousand points at one go. :P

then i escaped CORS at 2pm and went out with jolene. yay shopping! i got a laptop case and it's purplishpink. :) i think post-GSS sales beat those during GSS! we had lunch/dinner at ichiban boshi! ohh sushi! i know we just had jap food overload on sunday but jap food always look good, can't help it :)

and i bought snacks to stock up at home. prior to this there was nothing much to munch on. am eating the ritter sport cappucino now, tastes great! actually they all do. 4.20 for two at cocoa trees, go stock up too! starbursts 2 for 9.80 (the big pack)

yeah i was just thinking about this song on the train.

"i walk by faith, each step by faith, to live by faith, i put my trust in You". difficult because i don't understand why things are how they are, but i'm going to try.

2007-08-07T22:14:00.000+08:00

the time has come for me to do a 'looking back on the past 8.5 months' post.
so, looking back on the past 8 and a half very long but enjoyable months, i can say i thoroughly enjoyed myself.

4.5 months working,
4 months bumming

working was tiring but i got good money from admin and i didn't have homework. i don't know what happened to more than half of my money because i don't have that much left. i don't think i'm such a spendthrift but i guess everything adds up.

then there were the times i bummed around at home. half the time i went out and caught up with friends, the other half was spent watching tv and sleeping, mainly. a typical day would look like this:sleep at 3 or 4am, wake up at 2pm, watch tv and have lunch, watch tv somemore or go take a nap, have dinner, watch tv and go online. lifestyle of pig i know, but sometimes i find myself looking forward to the next day of bumming.

the time spent with friends were the best times. i lovelovelove sitting around talking and eating and shopping not so much shopping because it's tiring. this is when i wish to be a taitai in future :p (oh yes, not forgetting the HK trip and church camp+pangkor)

DYK! i've been in schools in the north-east, the east, and the south-west(?) and i've worked in the CBD. random information.

today i was back at the bedok area because i went to jolene's. other than 'i saw alot of tj people', i realised i miss JC life. i really do. mostly because my uni life, before uni has even started, hasn't been going too well. firstly i didn't get into the course i wanted, now i'm tangled up in this mess. there are three roads in front of me and i can't see the end to any one of them. option 1: stick with life sciences, option 2: stick with life sciences for now and at the end of year 1 apply to food science, option 3: transfer to fass

the problem with option 1 is, i have never thought of taking life science and now i'm stuck with pre-allocated modules of LSM1103 (biodiversity), CM1201(basic organice chem), ST1232(stats for life sciences), all of which weren't in my option list. i am forced to take these because my preferred option was fully registered already. why?! why do i always have to settle for second best. major in life sci is second best, this option is second best. and may i say that second best is not good at all. as much as i would prefer not going through so many stages of bidding, i would also like to have a say in where i go and what i do instead of having them forced on me because i simply have no other option.

the problem with option 2 is the woman at life sci dept just now. she so happened to be there when i was asking them about transferring fac. then she asked me why i wanted to transfer, so i told her and she said i don't have an interest in science and similarly food sci (something to that extent i really don't remember what people say, and she also teaches in food sci- errr ok) halfway i just gave up talking or listening to her because she was bent on her opinion. but yeah i guess she was half right. i won't say i love science but i don't dislike it either. neutral, yes neutral. i don't really like lab work and that's the primary reason for considering a transfer. lab work will be bearable if it was research on a topic of interest, but i don't think that's possible. actually that's not the point. the point is, it will be difficult to switch major after a year.

ok i came to the conclusion that i may just be better off at another faculty NOT researching. yes i brought all these upon myself. ARGH. i create so much trouble for myself and people at uni who have to keep answering my calls. if i had just applied to arts fac i won't even have a problem now. but in that case, i will never know what chance i stand in fst.

see my distress?!

i believe school is bearable if you have either or both of these two:
1) a module/course of your choice and interest
2) company

i definitely don't have 1), i do have 2) but it's limited and i can't expect my friends to accompany me all the time. thanks to my not registering for orientation, i feel like such a loner now. :(

my timetable now consists of two whole days of madness. 8-4 and 8-2 monday and thursday respectively. wednesday two hours of lecture. that's it for lectures, for the next week. for next week i'll enjoy a 2.5 day week.

oh back to why i miss JC. i miss JC because i passed it just now and as usual, nostalgia hits. and i recall everything from breaks to lectures and tutorials. seeing the students walk out from school makes me want to be back in those shoes, with homework, uniform and E/O/F grades. it's a feeling that needs extensive thinking just to come up with the right words to describe and i think this post is long enough.

if i go to school looking forward to the holidays and ccas, will it help?

i will still work hard and mug hard and get good grades, get a high CAP, and prove that i can score at bio stats and chem if i study hard and smart enough. then and only then will i have more options and have my own say. after all, in the general world, 'money speaks', in the academic world, 'grades speak'. yeah anyone wants to join me in studying hard?! :)

jap food buffet, movie, FOP

2007-08-06T00:39:00.000+08:00

JAP FOOD BUFFET day!
these are our mine, sam's, jas' and darryl's matric cards. :/ uni life
and this is the school we are in.

jap lunch ala carte buffet with the parents cell group! yummm. soft shell crab and california handrolls, tempura mix (plus ebi and shishamo), fried oysters and scallops, age dashi tofu, chawanmushi, sashimi and much more.
of choy's foot and candice's face, playing with candice's camera necklace cum torch, homer choy simpson, and peas! (since that's a pea pod, it makes PEA wee! :D )
jolene and i. spiderpig spiderpig, does whatever spiderpig does!

this is an ultra cute photo. i'm a temaki and we're poking each other with the chopstick wrapper.

i want to watch simpsons! (yeah marge simpson is going to attack us with her big blue hair

after lunch me choy and jolene went to catch 'perfect strangers'. we wanted to watch knocked up but someone not old enough hahha never mind its not your fault. the show was alright, quite confusing but in the end you find out the truth about everything. then went to FOP. it was good, i mean the worship was cool and the best thing was THE VISUALS. woahhh delirious?'s worship slides were animations. really REALLY cool stuff. but God was COOLer!

cooler. water cooler.

2007-08-03T23:31:00.000+08:00

MY LAPTOP SAYS HELLO!
it's a fujitsu S series ( i forgot whats the number)
anyway i'm still busy installing programmes and figuring new ones out
and i now have the the whole adobe package! photoshop dreamweaver fireworks etc! :D
and the best part is everything is working fine.
and i can use in on the comfort of my bed. hehehhe ;)

ok bye.

i've been fiddling with my new expensive possession for a few hours already, transferring files and downloading programmes. mostly done.

actually i'm quite worried now because the whole world has been allocated modules already and i have none yet. all the modules i want aren't available in round 1c. hmmm and i suspect that i'm wrong and maybe some LSM modules were actually available just that i'm blur again. since ignorance is bliss, i don't want to know. :)

2007-08-02T23:43:00.000+08:00

i am so boreddd now.
i want my laptop. going to collect it on monday. actually why not tomorrow??????? could have gotten it yesterday but my parents said "interest free loan, good what". then when i came home and told them(i told them before) that i have tons of forms to fill in plus i need a guarantor etc., my mom decided that we should pay by cheque to save all that hassle.

oh and i just declared my major as life science. not waiting for the FST reply anymore. i don't even think i stand a good chance at getting in (thanks to my stupid a level results) so... no more. it will still be a dream of mine, and only a dream. sweet dreams :), literally.

i'm so bored now. i want to bid for something but most of the life sci modules aren't up for bidding yet. and the general mods are in 2a. :/
no munchables at home :(

edit:
did i mention that sometimes i think my parents are really weird and cranky. yes they are.
making a mountain out of a teeny weeny molehill.
my mom just made a huge issue out of something as minute as orientation. me not telling them that i'm actually going to school on 13th instead of 6th. tell me, how am i to know that they think i'm going on 6th. the last they even said that was in april when i knew zilch abt orientation. it sounds really absurd to me. i really wonder how they even think. how their brain can conjure up so much funny thoughts in a few seconds. and this will also lead to "you don't tell us anything... if people ask us, we have to tell them we don't know don't you think that's very funny... we're your parents and your friend knows more than we do... we don't understand you anymore... what are you so resentful about". it always does, which is why i'm so tired of hearing it and why i sometimes don't even want to bother debating over something like that because it just goes round and round and in the end it's meaningless and the next time something like that happens, it's just going to come up again like undigested food. and somehow somewhere they will ask me "why are you so angry", sometimes i really am not but they don't believe that i'm not. sometimes my looks spells "this is really absurd" or "sighh it's the same thing again" rather than "i am angry/resentful".

please be reasonable i can't tell you anything and everything about my life, every minute of it because it's not possible. plus my idea of telling them stuff isn't their idea of me telling them stuff. their idea is everything, from like an ant is crawling over me to i had the ultimate most shitty day of my life. and my idea is (honestly i had a bit of difficulty thinking of this) calling them first when i get my results, telling them about hongkong on the way home, which laptop should i get etc. not exactly heart to heart stuff because and only because there's a barrier, because i have heard this "you don't talk to us" thing too many times over and i think i'm the "the more you BUG me the more i won't do it" type (unless it's having to plan something or do my work) it won't be good if i talk out of obligation. i think these things are cultivated, not forced out of someone. this whole thing wasn't initiated correctly and it only serves to make it worse by talking about it. it will take a lot to go back to the start when none of these were made an issue. quite impossible.

okkkaayyy this ends the whole issue. by tomorrow it would have been a stupid issue and nothing is really achieved. and the next time they are displeased about something, everything will be blown out of proportion and this issue will tag along... again.

2007-08-01T22:18:00.000+08:00

you know what?
uni admin procedures suck
it's sucking the life out of all of us.
having to go down to school that many times just to submit forms and payment etc. is killing me before school even starts.
i'm starting to hate the words "application" and "forms". urghhh

there are a million things on my to do list now and they are all floating around in my head, making it cluttered beyond cluttered.

please do not bother me about anything else now. i will explode.

2007-07-31T23:28:00.000+08:00

ahhh i'm officially overwhelmed!
uni admin matters are a great big bother.
i didn't bring my giro form today because i didn't see the form when i was pre-registering so i'm going to have to bring it down tmr. and the cpf thing also. i can't find my singpass and my mom can't find hers so we can't apply online and i have to go through manual application.

~~what's worse is, the printer is really screwed up the paper keeps jamming and i dont really bother with punctuation now cos my hands had chocolate on them and~~ i found out that my dbs internet banking device fell in the paper inlet and was stuck inside. wahhh i feel so dumb now.

and i didn't get into fst so i have to bother myself with appeals and stuff (that is, if they even allow appeals). i'm quite sad about this because i just watched something on discovery travel and living yesterday about those candy and snack factories in the USA and i was thinking "wwwaaah i want to work at those places next time" (of course as a flavour scientist and the likes, not a factory worker) now i have to plan my "strategy" carefully so as to ensure i am not at a disadvantage IF i transfer. this fst thing is so (insert appropriate word here). i can't decide on my major yet because of this, because i'm still hoping there are appeals. and i couldn't transfer during the transfer period because applications were opened till 20th. how far will i go to get something i want? hmm.

on top of that i have to think about what modules i want to take this sem and bid on the 2nd, which is thursday. looks like i'll spend the whole of wednesday night deciding and evaluating, and the whole of thursday staring at the comp trying to monitor the status and bidbidbid. it's not fun , AT ALL. i want to get this whole phase of uni over and done with, and go on to the more interesting part where i get to use the gym after school and go to vivo and have lunch with my friends.

oh yes and i have to buy my laptop tomorrow and get a loan and wait a few weeks for them to arrange an appointment (i don't know what for) and then eventually collect it. and i have to remember all those important dates. i'm glad i didn't sign up for orientation because i will be in a greater mess if i did.

haha oh yes today i was at matriculation, and we had to take queue numbers. the ticket read : "please taker a seat..." what?! yes i will taker a seat thank you. NUS leh, how can they not run spellcheck on their queue number machine. so much for "write right" and good english.

i got a bagfull of brochures and misc items from the fair and i had to lug that all the way home. round 2 tomorrow.

evan's birthday tomato sploshh!

2007-07-29T23:01:00.000+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EVAN!!!! :P wheeeee
jolene and i, photo frenzy! we took at least 10 photos.
we then proceeded to uyh's house, where we feasted on THOSE YUMMY TRUFFLES from canada. :D i'm such a glutton ~~when it comes to chocolate~~

the guys bought a whole lot of tomatoes (i keep spelling it as tomotoes theres something wrong with me). TOMOTOE~! hahaha. so her friends brought her downstairs, and before she knew it, she was being tomatoed. getting tomato on your teeshirt is digusting. please do not ever do that again. mark's pretty good at this, his shirt was still clean after the whole tomato fight.
the birthday girl and chocolate truffle cake. chocolate truffle cakeeeeee :)and this is a very cool picture of evan and the flying tomato.
ok i've had enough of typing "tomato" and misspelling it as tomotoe.
here's mr daydream, the cutest mr men rightrightright. yes faith i finally received it! (and roc) THANK YOUUU!

actually i have nothing much up this week. most people will be away at orientation and i'll be home sleeping. i'm either slow or blur or both. i was sent the email about sci fac orientation. and on friday i finally decided that i should sign up for it, but registratiosn were already closed! :( am i not meant to be participative at all?! that's fine with me because i get to sleep in late for an extra week. but i would have gone for orientation if i could.

drug syndicate

2007-07-28T23:46:00.000+08:00

i witnessed a police chase last night! super COOL!

you would have seen it in the televised news today. it's about a drug syndicate and traffickers. if you haven't, read this

http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/290935/1/.html
it took place at about 2:15am. i was about to sleep when i heard sirens. so i got up to see what was going on. woaahhh then i saw these police cars chasing this white lorry. then the lorry suddenly turned to the left-turn zebra crossing area at the road junction, and stopped. then a bunch of people got out and ran all over the roads (it was 2am therefore not much traffic) then the police started chasing them and so on. for most of the time i didn't know what was going on, so i just watched. i got quite a good view from my window (luckily they cut down some trees recently). groups of kaypo people also congregated downstairs. actually i would classify myself as kaypo too, except i didn't go down.

and... photographic evidence.

somewhere in the middle of the 2nd picture, you can see the lorry. the police cars are those with the blue lights. i thought it was pretty interesting to watch. free show at 2am! haha.

weather's so cold! i like! but i have this theory about how you shouldn't stay in a cold environment for too long because subcutaneous fat will accumulate. think polar bears and insulation. but i guess it's more an adaptation to climate rather than weather.

went for nus sci fac dean's welcome tea and briefing on friday. wow i woke up at 7 to go for this! and endured a long nausea-inducing car ride there(not because of my dad but because i was sleepy). ohohoh i was half-sleeping in the car right, then suddenly i felt a tap on my shoulder. i opened my eyes and saw a cockroachnymph-looking thing in front of me. ewww. but ahhhh mysterious. maybe God tried to wake me up so the thing won't land on me. hahah ok.

the talk was generally boring. CORS is confusing but just think of it as bidding in a game of bridge, and also bidding on ebay. so basically it's bidding and pure chance. i want to go for student exchange or summer programme, and i still pray for FST although i didn't stay for their talk because i wanted to go home and sleep. took a long time to get home. maybe i'll just sleep in the streets everyday hahaa. nah.

oh yes and while i was walking home in the drizzle, and i was listening to my mp3. in the middle of a secular song, a christian song started playing for a few seconds, then back to secular song for a few seconds, then the christian song again. but when i tried to rewind the song, it didn't play the bits of christian song already. wow God speaks through mp3 players too! hahah but unfortunately, i can't remember which song that was. :( sorry God, i was listening, but my memory's bad.

2007-07-26T22:46:00.000+08:00

i'm stuck in science fac, at least until october.
i called today and my call got transferred all over the place (so irritating but never mind). after being pushed to another in charge 3-4 times, i was told that there're no vacancies in FASS and i would have to wait till october. only then i can try to transfer fac.
i don't have a choice now. 2nd round of food sci results will be out next week only. so from now till then, i'll try to pray super hard that i get in. otherwise i'll try to bear with this temporarily. :( where did this system go wrong?!?!
something to do with too few vacancies in fst, and deadlines. deadlines for transfer, application...

let's talk about happy stuff now :>
met jolene after my one-day work assignment at uncle larry's office. hahahaha ya i was transferring calls (maybe i was as irritating as the people who pick up calls at nus)

we went to hip diner usa cos jolene had voucher.

we shared a choc cookie milkshake and mixed grill platter. the milkshake was good. the first sip i took, i went "so thickkkk!" ahhaa. it's really just blended chocolate icecream with cookie bits. mixed grill portion a little small (for two people). i mean for that portion, it shouldn't cost 18.90.
milkshake :)

this is a photo of me when i was a baby! cute right! i look like a boy because i had minimal hair. so fat somemore. never mind it's ok to be a fat baby. i'll scan in pictures when i have the time.

2007-07-25T21:03:00.000+08:00

clan outing! :) :) :) :) :) :)

i bought pop'doh! 5 for $5. and it's nice (nicer than donut factory), especially the smiley-faced one. so cuteeeee.

donuts, cake, and coffee. mmmmm :)

our donut faces. and my mr smiley, well-loved by everyone. then we ate it, so byebye smiley :(
look! so cute! they're like donut babies all lying on a tray. "buy me, buy me!" ahhaha.reminds me of kogepan.
it wants coffee! :D

it was nice meeting up for good lunch at taka, donuts and coffee at tcc (not forgetting the freezing air-con). must meet in school ok!

and back to the topic of school, i'm dreading school. mainly because i haven't fixed my course of study and everything's still uncertain, which makes me unsure, undecided etcetc. while everyone's registering for orientation, reading up on modules, i'll still have to bother myself with transfer procedures. i hope they let me transfer now instead of waiting for the next application period, which will be around october? i'll call OAM tomorrow and see how it goes from there. i hope i can get it all settled by the end of the week.

thinking out loud:
tomorrow i'll ask if there are appeals to fst, but if my chances of getting in are low i'll just ask for a transfer of faculty. which means i have to arrange to meet the dean or whoever who handles such stuff and that means i have to go down to NUS and choose between sci fac dean's welcome or this. best case scenario: fst/smooth transit to fass. worst: i get stuck in sci fac but not taking fst.

it's getting to me
there are so many things i'm thinking now but ahh well... i don't knowwww. i have a feeling i'm the one creating all this confusion (i think the word's not confusion but never mind i can't think properly now)

whatever ok goodnight

RAHHHHHHH

fst and uni

2007-07-24T23:31:00.000+08:00

i didn't get into fst :(
big fat :(
i hope they got my application form and it's not lost somewhere in the mail.
nah who am i kidding, it's probably my grades.
actually there are still 10 spaces left. i suppose those are the "will be considered after an interview" type of slots.

but for now i must praypraypray about this, then go through the hassle of switching faculty if i must. so mafan :/
but i really don't like the idea of taking other courses in science.
think DNA, genetics, development, plants (!), and lab work (!!) in FURTHER DETAIL, FOR THREE/ FOUR YEARS!
zzzzzzzzzz
but it'll be quite a pity to give up studying science after 4+2 years of bio and chem.

i recognise that this is one of the most crucial decisions i have to make in this lifetime. because it will determine my job and as a result, my salary and a whole host of other 'life' matters.

and i haven't thought much about uni life except for "what should i do during the holidays" and "what will i do after school everyday". i tend to avoid thinking about the academic part.

ok i will think about this later. clan outing tomorrow ;)
for now, i'm bloated and having slight cramp-like feelings.

uni cell outing

2007-07-24T01:16:00.000+08:00

we had our first officially uni cell outing! went to vivo and had dinner at the mussel guys. but we didn't have mussels. the main course portions were small, but not for pasta.

dory with herb sauce and baked rice.

we just sat around at the basement after dinner and talked for oneandahalf hours! hahah europe on arh. or sydney. whichever we have money for. i don't mind either, i just want to go on a holiday. yay this is going to be fun! no.money.for.car.

this is my poor little sick hamster. it has an infection for sure. the lump in the ear is increasing in size and it bleeds/weeps everytime the hammie scratches it. i tried looking up hamster diseases and infections but i can't seem find a description that fits. according to me, it's a cyst in the ear? so let's just leave it as that. yup, so my hamster looks :( it just sat in the food bowl stoning, then it somehow fell asleep there. i have a feeling it will die in the foodbowl. haha. for now it's still eating and drinking and runs around once in a while so i think it can live for at least one more month. it should be at least two years old already anyway.
they cut down the trees in front of my window :( i don't like the idea of being seen standing at the window. i want to change my curtains. speaking of which, my parents are going to let me redo my room (since they can't get a new house and are not intending to move in the near future) OH YAY i am going to paint my room royal purple and get light purple curtains and get a goldrustic-framed mirror... wheeeee

FST is slowwww. they haven't posted the application results. faster lah! i've waited so long already.

donuts

2007-07-22T21:45:00.000+08:00

there's a donut craze in singapore.
there's donut factory, munchy donuts, and i recently discovered summerhouse donuts which has a shop at amk hub, not forgetting vinco and pop'doh (and probably countless others i don't know of)

everything but donut giants dunkin donuts and krispy kremes! :(
i want krispy kremes please!

oh yes i have a new tagboard in case you haven't realised. yay i can view it now!

dinner with the uni cell grp tmr ! :)
school's starting. :(
bye

mind cafe

2007-07-20T23:01:00.000+08:00

mind cafe!

today jiadi eyin jeri and i went to mind cafe at prinsep st.

this is the (usual) food collage. fish and chips and chicken main course were good. the rest are average, but the desserts are not worth the money. a few of the games we played. the mona lisa one is boring, clue is not very good if you're not thinking (but the markers were disney characters so that's cute). haha and game of life simpsons version. we took quite a long time to figure this out. and we ran out of blue people so jeri had to marry a pink person. which, unfortunately, makes her a lesbian.

haha i was a millionaire in my simpson's life, eyin had fast reaction so rocked at 'go bananas', and jiadi was about the only person who used her head for clue. :P

hk trip concluding

2007-07-18T03:34:00.000+08:00

now i will do a concluding post for the HK trip.
after the influx of pictures, i think you'll appreciate some words here.

hongkong was fun. not much shopping due to time constraint and a tight budget, quite alot of eating(both good and bad food. i think you've heard us grumble enough about manfung at lamma) but things like mango dessert was fantastic, and the dim sum brunches.
i would have shopped more if i spent more time there. 1 day per theme park, took up 2 out of 5 days.
so i will probably head down to orchard one more time before the end of the GSS. urge to shop not satisfied. i suppose bangkok is better for street shopping, from what i hear.

hongkong is similar to singapore in many ways. the mtr, the airport, the shops and dining areas (other than the little cafes here and there). but HK is more mountainous (even oceanpark is on a mountain), the CBD is more happening in terms of lights and display, transport cost is higher and shops open till later, especially those along the streets.

going trippin' with friends is definitely enjoyable. i would love to spend my uni holidays going on holidays with my friends. people who will be free in dec or next may-jul let's go on a holiday!

if i had the chance to go back there i would, but more for the shopping than anything else, since i've already been to the peak, ocean park and disneyland. wheeeee

i've never taken so many pictures at one shot (430-more if i had space but thanks to 512Mb memory card i had to delete some and resize to 2M instead of 3M)

it took me a very long time to upload these photos, blog about the trip with visuals, and upload them to the albums. whew i'm almost done. photos all at the bottom of this post.

it's back to school soon for plenty of us. i'm dreading it a little since i haven't touched notes and boooks for months. everyone seem to be going for camps. i'm one of those few bums who haven't gone for any. oh yes and i still have to sign up for driving practical. bahhhh

PHOTOS (in 3 albums)
and will soon be located also at the box to the right.
day one and two
day three and four
day five and six

DONE! FINALLY. happy viewing!
it's almost 6am now. (but i woke up at 230 so its ok)

2007-07-17T23:35:00.000+08:00

HONG KONG (day 5 & 6)- the peak

went to st andrews church on nathan road for service on sunday. lovelovelove the stained glass. back to aspc on sunday! you all are missed!
i like these old church buildings. i know the church bulding does not define the church and how you worship etc. but this certainly adds to the grandeur
the peak tram.

at madame tussauds. aaron kwok. andy lau and bruce lee were,unfortunately, under repair.
yeah i make a good pres of the US.
hail hitler. no actually i wouldn't, but it's a picture. so pose!
spot the difference
LKY. theres another funnier picture but to ensure my safety, i wouldn't post it.

i like this picture too! haha.
monroe! there was really wind blowing from the platform.
box the boxer.
the beatles.
twins. and us acting cute along with them

wonderful view from the peak. pictures don't do justice to the spectaular view. it looks much better when you're there in person, so you'll have to go see it for yourselves one day. its a waste of electricity but the lights are so beautiful.

our last dinner in hk.ate at a spanish restaurant next to the hotel. spent a bomb there but the food was good.

jasmine and i, about 3am at 7 eleven. after drinks at 'all night long'. live band. quite good music. we got to request songs and shout into a mic too(shout because after drinks i don't think i would sound like i'm singing)
then we headed back to the hotel room after getting a bottle of 43% vodka for like 8sgd and 7up. and we started playing scrabble and making a list of the bad things that happened to us (like in the picture above). green fat kid, pacific coffee waitress who kept telling us we couldn't do this and that, funny names we came across, and last but not least, THE island.

then sam jas and i started to play 'who what huh why' which was really hilarious because we started to sabo jasmine and she got quite confused. then we got sam to drink half a cup at one shot, afterwhich his head started spinning. then there comes a point when we start laughing at nothing and talking crap (like birdfriend) until we fall asleep at about 6/7am.

and on the same day we wake up at 1:30pm after getting a call from the hotel reception to chase us out of the rooms.

went to east tsim sha tsui after, to the harbour + avenue of stars.

chinese junk

sam ate the friend of his (mynah) birdfriend. i guess this pigeon is "major" haha.
the HILL. we had to CONQUER this daily. hey it was a challenge to drag the luggage down ok.

then we flew back. but i didn't get to buy krispy kremes. :(:(:(:(:(:(

because we were running late for our flight (if we reached the counter 2 mins later we would have missed the flight so thank God we caught the airport express train in time)

(in the chow yun fatt way) WELCOME TO SINGAPORE.

2007-07-17T20:03:00.000+08:00

HONG KONG (day 3 & 4)- disneyland!

disneyland is a magical place. i love hk disneyland because i haven't been to the bigger one. imagine, if i had gone to the one in US, i'll go crazy and run all over disneyland! i like how disneyland feels so magical and fairytale-like. all the places are so colourful and you get to meet the characters from your childhood. what i like most is sleeping beauty's castle. that and "a whole new world" playing in the background is ahhhh magical (for a lack of a better word) the whole time there you'll feel so airy fairy. it's almost the best feeling in the world. looking at the photos makes me feel happy :) i'm kinda glad i didn't go to disneyland as a child. if i did, i wouldn't remember what happened and i couldn't have rode all the rides

in our room on the morning of day 3
our hearty dim sum brunch. almost 20 servings. revenge for the previous day's dinner.

on board the mtr
the busy streets. roads closed for pedestrians. but sadly ladies' market was a disappointment. i wanted to shop like mad but there wasn't anythinig to buy there. :( i'm really really sad :( now i want to go shopping in singapore, to satisfy my unsatisfied shopping craving. so much for looking forward to shopping in hk. all the sales are at the malls and luxury goods stores. but we didn't really shop around malls and i can't afford luxury brands
disneyland resort mrt station! :D like a place out of harry potter.
mickey-fied trains. mickey windows and handrails and comfy seats
yay. this is where happiness starts

our admission tickets. mines mickey!

floats. i like! so nice and colourful. snow white and seven dwarfs with sleeping beauty above
alice in wonderland
the little mermaid toy story. mister potato!
the stars of the place. and the beautiful castle.
the real castle :D
pirateland

little flying saucers. they can be steered up and down
disney waterworks

the second time we took the ride. now we know when they take the photo. haha check out josh's and sam's faces. zzz. but seriously, space mountain is a cool ride.
yes i love the castle
little shops and buildings on main street. i like too! :) just like walking down the road in the early 1900s
funny little round poohs and friends. i'm the same colour as the pooh and round as the pooh.
to infinity and beyond!
cute little sweet treats shop

hats hats and more hats
ears! dumbo! i would have gotten one if they didn't cost that much
main street my foot. but ok la it looks like it
this is where we met the fat kid in green. with the green mother and father who tried to bluff us. whole family of queue cutters. if you think singaporeans are kiasu, wait till you see these chinese people. fat green kid and fat blue boy (at the car circuit ride) and pinkgirl (at pirate land).
fat kid stopped one of this to take a photo. seriously.
the mickey and the minnie. haha i'm coming between them. :P us with the mickey and minnie who always went on breaks.
more of the buildings. :)

mickey shaped icecream!

ahhhhh
pretty carousel. riding round on horses
dumbo the flying elephant

winnie the pooh ride the effects were VERY good. the rocking boats and bouncing tiggers and rain. it was basically a ride through a storybook. beats 3d cavern of darkness at ocean park handsdown.
and we rode in hunny pots :)
spinning teacups. yeah we spun around like mad and after i got off i tripped over the saucer. shit man. hahah.giddy lah
fireworks :)
yeah they were beautiful and breath-taking
videos below: watch all of them! (occasional "wah"s from people). we had the best position, in the middle of the whole fireworks show. no doubt we had to keep turning from one side to the other, but what more can you ask. first class view!
one
two
three
four

the buys. not alot but they cost a bomb.

HONG KONG (day 1 & 2)
this is going to a long, image-heavy post :)

thank God for the weather. although it was extremely hot and humid, it didn't rain. and no rain is good because rain would have foiled our plans. we enjoyed ourselves alot (except for lamma, fat kid and queue cutters)

waiting to board

hk lights as seen from the plane
hk airport. very big and spacious
streets at night. really busy and crowded until 12mn.even after that they're still bustling. shops open till around 12 or later. bright neon-lighted advertisements everywhere. also on the roads are, many many taxis, BMWs, Mercs...
egg-shaped waffle balls.
my mango dessert on the first night! their mango dessert there roxxxx your soxxxx. smooth mango puree with fresh mangoes and mango ice. after this it was mangoland for a couple more suppers.

OCEAN PARK

bummed into grace shermeen rushan and their cousin there.

ferris wheel :)the peacockguy on stilts who rambled on in cantonese. so irritating

the rides

the abyss- turbo drop! the first drop was pretty scary but after that it was fine. this is about 7 or 8 stories high i estimate.ocean tower. revolving tower which lets you get a panoramic view of the park and beyond.

the dragon, abyss and ferris wheel. the dragon is a roller coaster with a few loops. not very big loops though. first time i'm on a loopy roller coaster okayyy.

the space wheel. up, upside down, down, up, upside down, down....
to spin dry after riding the raging river.

viking ship ride. they go almost 90degrees!

green tongues after sno-ice (which is a waste of money btw)
jelly fish!

dolphin and seal show.

cable car ride. very cool cos there are so many cable cars and the hill is quite steep.

jiajia and lele.the pandas from china.

hot air balloons. pretty!
we are in a grounded hot-air balloon because we weren't in time for the real deal.the typical hong kong mtr station. filled with people at any time of the day. their mtr station is similar to our mrt stations, just that they are less lazy and only have stairs at the exits, their trains are twice the length of ours, and they have blinking lights to inform you of the train's progress and which side to exit.

nice view before our MAN FUNG lamma ferry nightmare. you don't want to know what happened to us. let's just say we didn't find a place because we went the wrong way so we ate at some other MF place and had the worst dinner ever. but we escaped (literally) so that's all that matters. but it will be etched in our memories forever. 20 years down the road we'll still link bad food to this. but even bad food can't be as bad as this. so appreciate what you eat.

mango dessert again.

2007-07-10T16:09:00.001+08:00

wheee i'm going to start packing now.
be back in singapore next mon/tuesday.
i will miss you all! bye!

2007-07-09T20:41:00.000+08:00

hahhaa enlin and candice faster send the photos to us!

i passed my BTT! :)
the next step: take practical.
wheee hopefully i'll start driving in a few months time.

met up with michelle and jeri after that for an agenda-less day at vivo.

what we did was bum around, eat, camwhore, play at the playground, bum around somemore, wander around window shopping. i like this. we're the idle citizens of singapore, jobless and school-less for the moment.

i've always wanted to spend a whole afternoon lazing at a coffee joint, snag a comfy sofa seat, sip coffee and talk. i finally got to do that. :)

everything here

2007-07-07T23:52:00.000+08:00

2007-07-06T17:26:00.000+08:00

*ok i've decided not to stay in hall for these few reasons
- money can be put to better use. nus has enough $$
- if hall life = suppers, blasting music, partying, mahjong, dota, i won't like it because i don't like all of the above.
- everyone else decided not to stay. i know this sounds so "peer pressure" but i don't want to go into a new place and not see any familiar faces, that just sucks.
-someone who 100% wants to stay in hall deserves my place. i'm sorry i took it up in the first place.

ok bye :) i'm baking cheesecake now! YAY

friday at ikea.

so lame :/

care for some tea? :)
jeri jolene me

wheeeee. it's a kids slide, that's why i look oversized. :P

2007-07-06T02:28:00.000+08:00

my ym movie screening problems are almost solved
i have to study for BTT, which is next monday.
i am supposed to bake cheesecake.
speaking of cheesecake, i was discussing cheesecake with janice just now. then i opened the fridge, behold, a slice of tcc oreo cheesecake!
then there's the problem of the hall offer.

the + and - 's of staying in hall
factors: time, monetary cost, company

+

saves me a whole lot of travelling time. sleeping in later ...
widen the social circle.
in the larger scheme of things, more outreach opportunities
easier to meet up for cell (which doesn't really count because i'm still in the same school, i can just stay back later)
the experience. staying away from home, hall life!
only have to commit to staying for one/two sems
spanking new hall
i may not get this chance again

time spent travelling = time i potentially spend participating in suppers, games, activities
not free of travelling costs either
won't get to meet up with other people (eg YMers) on weekdays
what if i can't clique with the people (trust me, some of them have already displayed their weird characteristics)
costs WAY more than travelling to and fro everyday. it all adds up to 1576.35 for the first sem and 1081.1 for the second. which is an average of about 1300 per sem. travelling with hybrid concession costs a third of that.
worst is, if i don't like it there, i'll be stuck

i hope i don't have to choose between this and food sci. i would much rather have the latter please. i haven't replied the "hall buddy" yet (at least mine seems normal) but i have to decide by tomorrow and it's tough and i'm spending way too much time thinking and fretting over this. i want tomorrow to come quickly.

oh yes and i went for the medical checkup at NUS yesterday. if you haven't gone, there's nothing much to it, they just take your height and weight, stick a litmus-like slip into your urine, take blood pressure, have a short checkup, take 5sec to take a chest x-ray, and you're done. all in an hour. i expected to wait forever but i guess the t-z of the sci fac is very small/everyone goes in the aftnn/there are too few girls

went jogging with jeri yesterday. i'm such a pig, all i do is laze around at home, sleep for hours, take lunch (which just transforms into flab because i sleep after i eat), watch tv. the last time i ran (before yesterday) was during ycomm camp 13th june!

since i have nothing better to talk about, let's countdown to my HK trip!
5 days!

2007-07-05T01:32:00.000+08:00

updated the YM blog!
http://aspcym.blogspot.com

read it!

2007-07-03T01:38:00.000+08:00

went to bake at jolene's house today. :)
because i'm so free, and it's youth day
betty was there too but she was being lazy. haha :P
no she did her share of exercise by mixing.

cupcakes!

that's peanut butter, not icing
jolene broke an egg. so she has to clean it!
cookie and cupcake factory.
bye. wheeeee. thanks for letting us mess up your place. bake again soon!
now the skin on my palm is peeling. i think it's because i touched dish-washing liquid.

2007-07-01T22:50:00.000+08:00

mark's birthday party
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK!
the birthday boy who spoiled his own surprise party
and made us wait for more than an hour for him to come home
(but meanwhile we helped ourselves to the food)
*edit: video

mark being blindfolded while people scraped cream off the cake. then his face got smeared. i have a video of that. upload another time. the computer's being uncooperative now. it took a lot of patience to get this post done.
large piece of eclair from pan pacific (it was good). the birthday food and people standing around

mostly with jolene samsim and candice, the others are of evan trying to sneak some curry (hahah i have photo evidence!) and with mark whos obviously too tall for the picture. check out the bunnies.

janice and joljolene me and betty .

haha that candice was suanning herself the whole time. so funny. but its ok dear we know you don't mean it that way.

for the record, al and edward (even though i think they dont read this) i don't in any way look like a sailor. :/

my mom just said that i look fatter. (referring to my face) have meh?! IMO it's just the haircut and cos my hair's flatter now. put on weight maybe. but you can't tell that from my face. ahha never mind it's alright

i'm still undecided abt staying in hall. i guess i need familiar faces and company in order for me to even think i can adjust to a new environment. then what's a new environment for right? :/ if i plan my timetable such that i have three day weeks, i really won't mind travelling to and fro for three days. but if i stay in the hall, i'll have to have five day weeks if not it's not worth it.

but what i fear is my lack of discipline. i know i'm not that disciplined so if they're going to have a lot of compulsory fun, how to study?

but yet again, if i don't stay in hall now, i might not get the chance to do it in future. and i haven't signed up for any orientation camps and such so i'll be quite a loner if i don't stay in hall. i won't like that.

another decision to make. i'll let God decide!

2007-06-30T20:13:00.000+08:00

i'm considering baking cheesecake now, but i'm feeling lazy. lazy to walk to the supermarket, lazy to wait 20 mins for it to bake, lazy to wait for it to refrigerate overnight.
frigerate.
and i realised that we can't bake that on monday.

ym today was a "voice your opinion" session about pop culture.
to sum up,
we are like plant cells
cell walls, cell membranes.
the cell wall allows everything, if not most of the substances to pass through, while the membrane filters them.
yes we can listen to pop songs and watch movies and tv
but we must be partially permeable and allow only what's beneficial to enter.
but if ever dangerous stuff enters, i'm sure your cell has some mechanism to destroy them.
no but what's important is the discernment part

blahh i forgot so much of my bio stuff. oh well.

is this the part where my blog entry will have an effect on the lives of others. :P

2007-06-29T20:28:00.001+08:00

went back to school with jeri today to collect our a level cert and SGC.
jeri you owe me two birthday presents! :P
i'm impressed. it actually comes in a hardcover portfolio folder.
ooooooo
i'm so sad :( they summarised our SGC write-ups to two pathetic paragraphs, when i wrote a full page for each event. i thought they were going to print what we write.

i was going to blog about the security guard at the school gate. but never mind.

then we went shopping! i blew $100 in one trip BUTBUTBUT i can strike off three item on my shopping list, so it's not so bad.

oh i got king edward VII hall. hello hall life! i hope i get to room with winnie or cindy. wheeeee. actually i'm not exactly very excited about uni and halls and camps and such. not yet.

2007-06-28T23:10:00.000+08:00

hello!
i had my hair cut today
i ate a very late lunch with jas at prego today.
here are pictures! *we dined there only because we had a 25% discount voucher to use.
prego pizza. shared.
tiramisu. shared too. this costs 14 freakinggg dollars. actually we wanted the 7$ one. blehhh.
not excellent, but not bad. i'm having a tiramisu day. i eat tiramisu icecream for breakfast and this for my half lunch.

yeah my shorter hair. excuse my dry hair i think its the after effect of rebonding. the ends go crazy and looks like hay. i hope it gets less dry.

view this video of al running into a wall.
(no lah a mattress)
sorry i don't know how to rotate
*it's funnier if you play it over and over.

oh i think i'm supposed to blog about my hair cut. it's dry and i don't like it yet. it will look better after a month i suppose. i miss my longer hair, a little. 2nd problem- the periodical bloating. 3rd problem- rash on my thigh which looks like a skin irritation because it doesn't really itch. i suspect pangkor and their not so clean beds and rubbishy water. i've been to the doctor already but the meds aren't helping much. eee yuck i shouldn't have to face the world now.

now i hope i'll wake up tomorrow and all these problems will be gone.
goodnight

2007-06-26T00:03:00.001+08:00

i want to go shopping, quite badly.
i want to jet off to HK asap. i need krispy kremes and shopping and disneyland.
and i need to go to the hairdressers and my haircut!
need to go to the supermarket because there's nothing to munch on at home. well, there are, but they're potato chips and keropok and cuttlefish stuff. i don't fancy these stuff that much. i want chocolate and icecream.
and i did nothing today. i think i'll do the same tomorrow.

by the way, i still can't view cbox tagboards.

2007-06-24T16:55:00.001+08:00

i am:

so bored now
exploring my facebook account
full from durian, crabs and icecream!
happy. actually not really
(was) having a nosebleed. yucks but i'm used to it
sore throat and runny nose-less! :)

i want to straighten and cut my hair. like shoulder length and with THE FRINGE. you know THE FRINGE. haha. not bangs. the side swept thingy. i figured my fringe should always cover my forehead if not i'll look really weird. <- because my hair so CMI now. cannot make it. it looks horrible, which makes me look horrible. and that's bad.

to all you people who are going back to school tomorrow. (oh dreaded school) i know how it feels like. must work hard! and to all the exam-taking students, go take a nap, study at night. ahhahah do a bit of last minute cramming (you never know what wonders cramming can do) and tadah you're all ready! all the best and remember to wake up for the exam. aim for promos and prelims!

2007-06-24T00:25:00.000+08:00

church camp 2007

2007-06-22T19:33:00.000+08:00

back from church camp and pangkor!
photos HERE.

happy birthday (man) candice!

i slept from 11 last night to 1 this aftnn, then back to sleep at 2plus till 7plus. 18 hours! woahhhh. i own! i had runny nose and sore throat for the past two days. mostly gone now. enlin and choy hope you all are feeling better too!

church camp was fun. would have been better if it was longer because 4 dayz whizzed by so quickly. the food was mediocre, save for some dishes that were not bad, like the eggs and coffee and some desserts (sago and the pudding thing!). the hotel layout is super weird. we had to walk a long corridor to get to the ballrooms and dining places from our rooms. and the lifts took forever to come. the facilities were quite rundown. so much for 5 star, but its still ok. much better than the pangkor one.

we played alot of tennis there, shopped at mid valley, bowled.
candice and i make a good bowling team! :)
nights were super fun, esp the last night.
the first night we were planning for the hk trip, and watched star wars (with the funny bear-looking things) and rolling rolling rolling (lol)

the second night a bunch of us were having girl talk!
tricia so funny she's like in her own world. candice super blur as usual. and isa keeps talking to herself when everyones laughing like mad.
then the guys came and interrupted. ahahha choy fell off the bed like three times, and we pushed shannon off the bed. i think janice fell off the bed too. funny!

the last night was the best. we had ym prayer revival meeting till 1plus am. alot of people were there, crammed in one room. then we went up to find people playing asshole daidee. so enlin jolene and i sat outside for a while talking. then we played pig and bluff. bluff with five decks of cards! 20 QUEENS! and they ordered macs 100 nuggets +fries+ big macs! plus the donuts. pigs. but it was fun.jasmine and i were doing our laughing thing at 5am again. jasmine we should find you a name. krusty +krepes or kremes. we're a team! haha. birdfriend is not that funny after all. we only went to sleep at 630. refer to pictures below.

one thing i think God spoke to me about was about living my life for Him. not explicitly out of sermon but more from my QT. to sit at His feet and listen. the camp theme song puts it nicely into words:

i made a vow
my life will always honour Christ
whether i live or die

i belong to Him
He bore my sin
i owe this life to my saving King

Hallelujah
i am not my own
You are in control
Hallelujah

for me to live is Christ
and to die is gain
no matter what price i pay
i choose to give this life away

i heart my dp group too, although so often we self-disrupt.

now to talk about pangkor! i expected it to be a beautiful island but no it wasn't :( we took a boat out to another island on the 2nd day but the water was murky and rubbish was floating in at one point, and the water was very salty. no different from trying snorkling at ecp (pointless). so we spent most of our time playing cards on the floating platform. gin rummy, bridge. but the company was good! hahha we spent both nights playing cards too. i never talked to sam sim (m) much before this. i found out he's quite joker too. and jawn is super slow in pig! hahha. GIM RAMLY. LOL.

oh anyway i can't see my tagboard cos got some error. so if you can see it, don't tag yet. if you can't, yay then its not my comp problem.

ok goodnight.

2007-06-15T22:18:00.000+08:00

church camp tomorrow!
i just found out that theres a gym at the hotel

woah i haven't updated since sunday.
yesterday i opened my journal and woahhh i haven't journalled in a month!
yea so i'm going to try to do QT everyday. it's quite fun once you get started. everyday God reveals more of Himself, gives you those precious words you can hold on to, FOREVER. :)
and we had a wonderful time of prayer today! our church is having this 24/365 prayer event, where people take turns to pray at tani for 2hour slots or more. during sharing of sorts, we were talking about how youths in general and the void in their lives. it really all boils down to purpose. do you live just to fulfill your own goals or for something greater, for eternity?

tomorrow is my last day at work! after this i'm going to bum and go for camps! actually my mom told me to go ahead and apply for nus hall. hmm, now i don't know where i can possibly stay at. ~~what if i apply for something near sci fac and then somehow FST doesnt work out and i can transfer to FASS.~~ nah i realised that sci fac is not particularly near any hall, because they're all concentrated at the bottom of the map.

i just spent a half hour surfing around the hall websites. i'm undecided.
goodnight

2007-06-03T20:55:00.001+08:00

eyes very itchy.
i think it has to do with staring at a screen for 3 hours.
watched pirates 3 with a whole bunch of people after church today.
not a great movie, just like the 2nd part, but still okay to watch because johnny depp is funny, and 'welcome to singapore'? ohkayyyyyyy :/

i'm going to work till the end of this week! :)
i'm excited about church camp, HK and much more!
hahah something random: have you gotten a dejavu about having a dejavu where you were having a dejavu...?! (its as endless as those mirror images of mirrors) by the way, will those mirror images end once the image gets too small? hmmm bye

2007-06-02T20:22:00.000+08:00

choy's birthday celebration at changing appetites.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAM!!!!
fever be gone! :)
LOVE YOU ALOT ALOT!

(to everyone else who's down with fever/flu- take care, sleep more (because this is the only time you can sleep so much without feeling guilty) and get well soon.

the last week in photos :

GDOP and the people in the national stadium. this is the packed side.

actually pop tarts are quite nice. i like that the frosting is crunchy.
today the ym camp comm went all the way down aloha changi to recce the place for ym camp. big holiday bungalows with 7 rooms and an equal number of toilets. but they are dirty. sorry i'm really bothered by that since my house is always kept clean (not by me though). but i guess being away from typical singapore is a good thing. after youth prayer meeting we went down to ecp to join some adult cellgrp and CM for their bbq. :) COLOURFUL CANDLES. wheee we went night cycling. er actually not really. its just that we were cycling at ecp at night. my godsisters. :)
its the wind. and my hair's a mess. :(

i was busy the whole weekend. iHope youth conference on saturday for 13 hours, GDOP on sunday. i was on the verge of dozing off while checking the reports today (fortunately it was in softcopy)
i just got my access card today, and rightfully, i only have 5 working days more. thinking of working till the end of the first week of june but i've been looking forward to the end of the job.

when i was at the 4th level, i bumped into my exschoolmate, who's also working at fortis.

ok i'm going to make a rule. the people who are always there for birthday celebrations and whoever we celebrate birthdays for, (you know who you are) when it comes to your birthday, you have to decide where to go for dinner/lunch/party. if i have to decide, that means it's my birthday, and i'll get your presents!!!!!HAHAHHAA.

i'm listening to ong and leong podcasts right now. i still think it's very funny. i have been listening to it in the office the past two days.

go listen.
hey its not bad, you get useful information out of that too.

went shopping today! :)
orchard is super crowded.
i didn't end up buying any sale item
nothing good on sale yet.

today i went through a stupid report and had to try to tally it with the original. yeah in print, not on the computer. very frustrating. and i had such a hard time trying to find the corresponding amounts because they are all jumbled up. that's the worst task ever. EVERRRR.

usually when people make a call, they'll say
"hello, ____ (insert name here) please" right?
today someone in the office was making a call and it went,
"hello, bill please"
i thought it was pretty funny.
if i was on the other end, i'd probably go
"yes, that'll be $150. payment by cash or card?"
:P

while checking about 200 pages worth of numbers today, it occurred to me that i could plug my earpiece into the CPU and listen to music. so i went to imeem and started listening to music while checking! :) it'll save me mp3 battery, and i am entertained while doing something boring. by the way, i don't know what exactly i'm checking.

quick entry i have to go sleep
HOP ON THE MUSIC MOBILE! :) this is the 156 bus i took yesterday. it was a nokia advertisement thing, so they changed the interior to look like this, complete with two lounge chairs, sofas, those circle chairs, and continuous MVs playing. it's like PIMP MY BUS RIDE.
dinner at the ship with candice's family and jolene. :) escargots, fish and chips and pasta.
spent alot of time at borders flipping through mr men and little miss books. they're so cute! and the mr greedy story is so funny! i like mr greedy, even though he's a pink fat blob. so cute! i didn't get myself the mr men book because i got something better, a jodi picoult book. :)
stayover at candice's. friendster browsing, slow video streamings,crunches on the bed, bright camera flashes (for the last two pictures, we were actually in the dark) and new york minute. lallala LOVE YOU 2!
today in church :)
