Quite random stuff...

Yeah! Er-jie coming back from Japan tmr! And she said she bought things for me! hohoho. :)

Didn't really do anything today except to sleep and watch tv and eat and online. i mean seriously nothing else. Ok... i ought to do some research later.. 2 researches to be exact.

Oh. did i mention that from mon onwards supposedly is our one week break from school... and most unfortunately the whole class have to be attached to an event for 6 days from wed to mon. and the other 2 days... class B (my class) has to return to school for some make-up class for a mod which the other class is not taking yet. dotx! So there goes the WHOLE one week. haix! What a break... worst than normal school days.. and a freaking $20 allowance for working 10h a day. how abt that. i hope i haven't complain abt this anymore. even so. i want to still complain again! argh. so unhappy lah. and i think that we weren't treated with any kind of respect as well.. as i think i mentioned before. underpaid and overwork.. whatever!

Think i've been buying a lot of albums... and thinking of buying somemore. lol. Latest 2 to the collection was A-mei's Star and Taiwan Variety Show Happy Sunday's 校园歌喉战 compilation of 10 of the contestants... inside got a few fav competitors for the competition. :) Then there was Club do Balanco's album i got from WOMAD.. before that was LeeHom's 改变自己 and POC: At World's End OST. Then even before that was JJ's 西界 lah... Omg. my colleague asked me why did i spend so much money buying albums... then i was thinking lah... (i didn't ans him). And i guess it was one of JJ's song 盗 (编号89757 album) that influenced my thinking. perhaps be4 that i was still immersed in getting my hands on anything that saves me money. but after that i think properly be4 i buy any albums and make sure i'm buying the genuine one. A good deed after all.. (other than dl-ing 1 or 2 from some websites. lol) =x

Oh.. would like to comment on A-mei's album packaging... wah.. really nice lah.. the moment the box slide out from the outer cover... beautiful.. :) The lyrics booklet too.. although there were other ppl that used the plastic cover concept for the lyrics book too.. but not as well done! I like the design and all... Thanks for putting so much effort in making us buyers happy. haha!

Thanks to wenwei.. i started playing online pool again.. dotx. gonna try if other yahoo games work easily cos there were some unpleasant changes which made me stop playing yahoo games. in fact the site didn't even allow me to load the games properly.. not to say play. then i wonder when will i start playing audition again. lol...

Eh... i think nothing liao... hw and everything piling up. All the best to me. haha. and my classmates.

赶场 Saturday. lol.

OK lah. i update ok! zhiwen says update after i get home... so... 'after i get home'! =X Haha. ok. lame. BUT i'm tired liao! =P

Eh... i think today very fun! haha... work was slack as usual... brought my lappy there so that can use to do some research... and i did ok! i wasn't just playing facebook hor.. (although most of the time i was) lol! then then... i think uncle ronnie and ww are trying to make me grow fat again! Argh. keep buying food lah. but both days i didn't finish the noodles. first was spicy. second was i had breakfast ard 9.30am and ask me to eat noodles at 11.30am?! dotx. then third was still spicy. dotx. for the times/days i were there... there isn't a single time i had to deal with spicy lunch. but well... i have to cos after all i didn't pay for any of them. not a single time when uncle is ard. so i felt so bad to complain lah. as long as i can take it then ok lah. Overall... working at shaw centre is still much better thou sales not that good... but i dun mind working there lah. :)

Then went over to raffles place for the urban clap thing we were supposed to attend with the class... then erm... by the time i reach there... they were all ready to leave! omg. i just wasted my time and energy and whatever lah. dotx. but managed to chit chat and laugh with some of my classmates be4 i left for another meeting up and concert.

SCO pre-tour concert. half fun half sian. is it becos this isn't a priced concert so it means that they can treat it like a rehearsal? But i think Mr Lee was quite good for his solo. :) And we kept shifting place.. or rather... me! dotx. so in the end i was sitting with some sy ppl and my da-jie and dad. And they played Tian Wang!!!!! OMG!! I so miss that song lah... i think xunqi and others who were in syco'05 would agree with me. FAV song of all. we were all reciting the poem.. but zhiwen lah.. that year haven't join yet... dunno anything. dotx! so i was reciting along beside her. lol. Dun feel like commenting other songs liao. And and... i was soo smart! i guessed that their encore would be hua hao yue yuan (花好月圆)... and it's true! It was the last of their 3 encore pieces. THREE! zai huh. I rmb the bei jing yi ye (北京一夜) at Botanic garden last year. so cool lah. we were laughing so much that the ppl in front turned and looked at us. see lah! ur fault. haha.

After concert walked to Esplanade from SCH.. then walked to marina mac in the end.. sat down for a while and the guys decided to go catch the last train. so they chiong all the way... while the girls decided to take bus. lol. So... bus-ed with zhiwen.. actually wanted to take all the way.. but then so tired. and lazy to walk from bedok int back. so i dropped and took a cab back. haha! =x. OH zhiwen. i think i know when and why we took bus tgt the last time. It was after last year's Beautiful Sunday!! Yea.. i have good memory! (minus that time i can't rmb where i saw u at suntec) hahahaha. =P

Wah... i really look forward to the chalet lah... i think we will all just talk and talk and talk non stop and laugh and laugh and laugh non stop also. lol. Anyway. before Genting trip and after exams pls! Zixin and jessly and sylvia also going to genting. so avoid those dates!! HEEx.

Sorry zhiwen but i've got to say this.. the ending joke of the day was... I asked zhiwen how old does my father looks like... and her ans was.................. 'he looks like a father.' DOTX! if u even consider that an ans to the qns. dotxxx... crap lah.

Essay rush starting.

Haven't been blogging properly... and these few days been working on my history of music essay... And i just finished everything. er.. deadline is today lah.. so die die also have to complete. and luckily i did~! Haix. i think it's going to be the same situation for the rest of the components as well... cos i haven't watched any dance performance yet! OMG. If i can only watch the Lasalle performance for dan:s fest. i would only have less than 3days to complete the assignment. omg. how am i going to die man. UNLESS... i forgo the SCO pre-tour concert this fri and go to the nus one. But i certainly do not want to~! ARGH. HOW? at this point of time.. i have no idea at all. cos i'm really very tired already.

Plus this sem have quite a no. of modules have written assignment... so.. all the best! haix.

Anyway... er-jie is in Japan for vacation now... dotx. coming back on sunday i think. And mum is going to jakarta with my aunt-in-law, uncle and grandaunt.. for a week too. ok.. it means more freedom. Of cos. I HAVE to enjoy before the 3rd comes which marks the start of torture. underpaying and overworking. unfair isn't it. and so much for their rules. whatever. nothing was more annoyed that the event has to be during the same period as my part time close door sales. dotx. i was super angry when i knew abt it. like why should i be doing something that i feel is not going to be beneficial to me and not doing something i would enjoy more? Eventually i'm really think that our course is too mixed up of everything. and we are forced to take every module even if it doesn't appeal to me. cos i'm nv interested in visual arts and still not insterested. but so far the modules that we took... most of them were abt VA. i'm pissed.

And tired. time to sleep. no worries for tonight first.

Anyway. it was mid-autumn festival ytd lah. and i was typing away for the essay. nonetheless... set aside some time for mooncakes! haha. too bad er-jie wasn't ard. mooncakes are nice! haha! Happy Belated Mid-Autumn Festival! :)))

KARAOKE

OMG... i actually 'aroused' my mum's longing to sing ktv. lol!! cos today my colleague asked me what songs do i NOT know how to sing... then i was like... thinking how to put it... then i said.. songs that i dun like then i dunno lor. lol! actually not true.. should be songs i've nv heard be4 then i dunno. even when i didn't like them.. i know how to sing! well.. at least the chorus part. Ok.. so when i just told my mum abt it... she was like... she dun believe that i know a lot of songs... so she started taking out her song books of the oldies and test me! DOTX. Like REAL oldies. from 40s to 80s. HAHAHA. in the end she was surprised that i really knew a lot. lalala!

Then my mother said... let's sing karaoke one day... at home lah... (no wait.. she first said go konghwa karaoke to sing. dotx. i refused.) anyway we have a full system at home... haha! i mean we used to sing at home rather often in the past... but everyone got busy with our own life... so we haven't sing tgt for a long time... and usually only my mother, er-jie and i sing the most. da-jie dun usually sing with us... at least not in my memory.. probably cos she aren't as musically inclined as us... and shy. my dad just always sit at the side and sing without the mike unless we push it to him..

Ok... so when's the next kbox session? Lately got a lot of new songs... so must go chiong those songs.. haha!! JJ, LeeHom, A-mei... blah blah blah.. =P BUT at least after next wed... the coming one. Cos... i have an essay due on that day and so far... i'm 0 out of 900-1000 words. Wow. how nice. i dunno how to start and what to write. damn. so much for the first assignment due. haix.

NO Reservations

Argh.. very lazy to blog these few days. no one cares also what. Anyway.. haven't got the chance to blog abt this movie. hee.


Actually went to catch it last week.. one day after class... not bad... Catherine Zeta-Jones is good! It seems real that she's (Kate) trying very hard to make a good parent for Zoe (her niece who just lost her mother). And Aaron Eckhart (ok. i can't rmb his name in the movie) is very cool in the movie.. Listening and singing opera almost every minute. It's really quite touching how he tried to make things happen.. And things really happened! Well... Happy ending of cos.
Other than just romance and comedy.. the show provides some family warmth and fine food as well~! How bad can it be then? Lately there's really a lot of movies involving food yea. And i think this is worth the ticket money. Eh. the others. haven't watch yet. haha!
Am really tired... And I have to say again that i'm currently very addicted to Facebook. Dotx. Maybe i will grow sick of it soon. Err.. or at least i should keep it away for a few days cos... i have a 1000words assignment due next week! And other than watching the performance just today, i have nothing else! Wah. die. er. Nitex first. =x

HK Music Camp - Part 1

Was browsing thru my photos to find some with me playing erhu... apparently there wasn't many of those nicely taken... and then i saw the hk music camp photos... and i think i should be in the mood to start blogging abt it. haha! (after like more than a month) =P


Introduction
We (changle, desmond, michelle and i) were in hk from 28/7 to 6/8... out of the 10 days... the camp was only 7 days (29/7 to 4/8) and 5/8 was the concert. we arrived one day earlier than the rest.. and left only one day after the concert.

The Plane Rides...
We were lucky to take SQ flight, the courtesy of SCO. heex. We met at the airport early on 28/7 morning... happily board the plane to take us to hk... there were some problems initially regarding our instruments but eventually it was solved cos the flight wasn't full... and we were even luckier to be on a new plane! the seats, the tv, the table and everything is just so different from usual... Anyway. the main point was.. i watched Confession of Pain on my way there. :) I watch that cos i couldn't find that show in vcd shop for rental... dotx. And on my way back.. watched Paris de Je'taime... but i was so tired i fell asleep. =x due to the late night be4 lah... haha. And only managed to watch one third of Protege.. eh.. should have watched that first... er.. whatever. The food was not bad esp. on our way back. i like the fish and mashed potatoes. heex. And the ice cream! hahaha!



The place we stayed
We stayed at the Lei Yue Mun Park and Holiday Village throughout the 10 days we were there. So unlike the previous batches whereby they get to stay in hotel be4 and after the commencement and end of the camp lah. dotx. Ok.. so basically this place is built on a hill.. so we got to really exercise for the whole 10 days... every place we want to go bound to include some climbing... stairs or slopes.. u choose. then.. imagine. our luggage are ard 20kg and we got to drag/push (whichever way each of us used) up the slopes to get to where we stay. worse still... right after the camp ended whereby everyone else check out and return home except for us... we had to bring our stuff down and put at some place be4 we were given a new room to move to.. which implies we move everything up to the same place again. dotx. super tiring.




That building up there was where we stayed. err... for the girls.. for the guys... can't even see the building in sight.. they were further up.. and really. poor them. for that 7 days.





The route to go back after meals... long slope...


The alternative to go back after meals.. the stairs. quite a long way too..
In the end we found some short cut.. but then didn't take photo of it.

The whole place is actually booked by the camp so there's usually no one else other than the campers... which consisted of Youth Chinese Orchestra, Youth Choir and Junior Strings. total up to abt 300 ppl? Madness right.


The meals..
Very simple meals we have everyday... had our meals with a few strings guys... they are some nice ppl... told us a lot of things.. and taught the 3 of them some easy cantonese since i already knew some of them. Ya... they were all guys... so basically michelle and i were the only girls at the table...



A typical meal we had for the camp. with white rice and soup. they try to provide us with different food everyday lah... the steam egg only appeared the first 2 days we were there... but i like leh. tsk.


But as the days go by.. realised that the food aren't enough for 8guys and 2 girls... dotx. i think too many guys ard already. mic and i didn't even get to eat much after all. cos we were slower.. haha! I think it's always the breakfast that is nicer... with bread lah. corn sauced chicken/pork was one of the favourites too.. :)


Ironically... the best meal we got was outside the campsite... really sumptuous!


Really the best... thou i didn't really had a lot.. i dunno why. they guys had their fill finally i guess.. haha!! Thanks to the manager who brought us there... and thanks hk for treating us. haha! =x

That's all first... i'm tired!!!!

New Shoes. Mooncakes. :)

Eh.. realised i haven't been blogging for a few days... well... cos lately i've been spending more than half of my online time to play ard with Facebook. =P It can be quite fun for ppl having a bored life like me. haha! Many different things to do..

Not going to blog much today either... Cos i'm tired already.. But i'm very proud to announce that I've gotten myself a new pair of shoes!!! Puma! YEAH. Finally... after i left the broken pair in HK... i've got one less choice whenever i go out and when i feel like wearing sneakers or covered. i just have nothing else comfortable. but now. no worries. Heex! Ok... apparently i'm not very sure if mummy is going to sponsor me with that... she promised! but she said now i started working le.. got pay so dun need liao. dotx. mothers. but ahem... i'm going to sa jiao at her until she does. haha! Er. i think so. =P

Thanks sylvia for shopping ard with me. But we were both happy when we settled down at Ikea restaurant with meatballs, poached salmon, chicken wings, daim cake and cheese cake. and green tea. wah liao. i think we ate a lot lor. haha. Was very full after that. but that was really satisfying lah. =x

Then er-jie came back with mooncakes! YEAH. hahaha... mid-autumn festival is coming. but wun be able to celebrate with the big grp of ppl (mum's friends) on 22nd cos of the gig Anthea offered me. But well... i'm looking forward to the gig too. so what's to complain? i can come back right after that to join them for the last bit i guess... lol. Nvm abt that... what's more impt is we have mooncakes to eat! finally cos we finished the box i bought from HK like more than 1week ago... should've been faster. how nice if there can be like East Ocean's snow skin mooncake throughout the year? haha!! But maybe if it's like that i wun appreciate it as much? Hmm... well.. who knows cos we know that mooncakes dun exist in the market throughout the year! ok.. crap. enough crap i mean.

All in all.. today (thurs) is a happy day.. hopefully tmr too.. and the rest of the week too! Time to sleep. nitex.

Last SYCO performance for the year!

Wanted to blog when i came back... but i eh... felt asleep while i was watching tv instead... haha! Was watching bruce almighty... but 20min into the movie or lesser... be4 he became 'god'.. i already felt asleep on parents' bed. and i could hardly open my eyes. haha. i was really tired...


Anyway... am really happy today... the fun always comes when it's the concert day... 2nd time on the Esplanade stage... and we took photos on the stage! Yeah.. :))) haha. Boyi and sylvia's idea... but quite fun. cos we were watching the perc ppl practising their drama at the same time... Yiheng and Kangren so funny lah... i think they redo the front part for 8000 times... trying to improve it under Ms Teo's supervision.. haha! But i guess they did quite well during the concert itself... although we couldn't hear them from the back stage at all.. too bad. But time passed really fast.... it was only the start of the concert and soon it's the end. But well done all! :)

Met the whole big grp at city hall mrt and walked over tgt with them... cool. thou waited for a while... got to talk all along the way... speaking abt hk camp with des and changle again. tsk tsk. plus jojo as well... and realised some funny stuff... haha.. but anyway... end year hk trip idea is scraped cos of some difficulty encountered by some of us... me as well.. cos been there twice this year. next year i guarantee i can make it. :)


The concert itself was ok i guess... except for some small mistakes here and there... hopefully not too obvous. haha! but i think the effect was good. :) And response was good too... i didn't rmb we had so many audiences the last year... i was really touched at the end of the concert when i saw the no. of hands clapping for us. This is the first time i saw so many ppl watching our performance.. Am really happy! Happy that i know most of my classmates were there watching us too... getting to know and listen to chinese music.. letting me have the chance to share with them my interest. :) On the other hand... feeling a pity that everything has come to an end.. like the one hour passed so fast! Be4 we realised... the whole thing ended. haix. Thou i could safely say that this year is not as fun as the last... i treasure the time with all these members, friends that i managed to make. Looking forward to our next outing! :)))


Just like that... another year of syco passed... marks the end of my 3rd with the grp... Hmm... i asked my mum abt still joining next year or not... she asked to continue. maybe she's right... after all when i get to level 3 mos probably i wun be able to join anymore cos of all the night classes... nonetheless.. i'm feeling very uncertain abt this whole thing. i dunno why. Perhaps due to the conductor issue and abt who's joining and who's not (this is impt cos it determines the possible level of fun and standard)... But if i'm really going... i make sure that i'm performing my best for the audition. if not.. forget abt it.


Just be4 we left Esplanade... and be4 we have to say goodbye to our conductor... we had grp photo.. like finally. cos he refused to let us take grp photo during the annual concert? it should be a better one then... hmm.. anyway.. haven't get hold of the pictures yet.. till then... we took this with ku laoshi be4 the concert started..



Gaohu section with jinjia coming in at the very last second. haha!

Subway with the usual ppl... plus some ppl who came to support us.. joel, zhiwen, junyuan, jessly and zixin.. Thanks for coming even thou prelims are tmr! Good Luck for the papers.. whether they need it or not. heex. laughter and all again.. take photos... and drag time and whatever... but i think it's always fun with them... even though when there's trouble... they are being forgotten for the time being.


Ahem... the 2nd happy thing. Thou i couldn't make it to the JJ party 2.. Dunno how fantastic it is... must admit that i want both physical and mental memory of the event lah. but can't help it that it has to be such coincidence with our performance. I must thank my dearest sister for making the effort to do this for me... HEEx.


The 2nd album i have with his signature! :)))


Anyway... they're back... hmm... nice weekend anyhows... be it at work or at home or at performance. not many customers at work... but nice chatting with the colleagues and stuff... but dunno why i'm still the target of bully. it's weird isn't it? dotx. dunno where i working next week... hopefully somewhere nice. haha! Suntec? i really dun mind there.. more fulfilling thou tiring.


Seriously u dun want to know what time it is now... 1.10am. Lol! not that i spent such a long time typing... ok.. quite long but be4 that i was talking to a few ppl at the same time on msn lah. haha. so after all the silence then i start typing. anyway... should go now... lessons tmr morning... haven't do my stuff yet... shall do it on the bus journey. =x Nitex!!

Just random. Internet reborn.

Finally i'm back with blogging... Haix. Encountered lotsa problems... Know what happened? The day after i blogged the last entry.. The next day.. the modem went dead again.. the person says might be adaptor prob.. Then i dunno what happened... the whole modem just went blank.. then went to the service centre AGAIN. To our (the technician and me) horror.. the modem started to smoke when i he plug in his working adaptor. DOTX. I think i geiqiang.. haha! Anyway the conclusion was.. i should buy a new modem... being anxious in getting my internet back... i went on to get one on my own... $100+ gone again... thankfully er-jie sponsored $100. heex. i'm really broke liao... even be4 my pay and allowance come to me. haix!

But the problem didn't stop here... i called Singnet twice and my com technician once... and aztech numerous times (w/o them picking up at all)... be4 i can really connect to the internet... in the end was singnet solving my prob. dunno why the first time the person didn't attend to me with the same qns. Well... at last i got my problem solved! :) And now... back to normal surfing life. heex!

Anyway... Freedom again.. just for 2 nights... dad and mum and da-jie went genting plus KL? i dunno where exactly they went lah... with a whole grp of ppl. leaving er-jie and i at home anyway... so her bf came over. well. so much for it... expected lah. but ok.. i got the room to myself.. for once. perhaps i will feel what i yearn for.. and decide whether that's really what i want... Well.. maybe. :) BUT too bad... work tmr and performance on sun... not much time at home either. Been out since early for most of the days this week. well.. last week too... hope next week will be better. haven't got any work shifts yet. dunno why. sianx. hopefully can get more shifts and well... in turn more money. haha!

Getting really tired. esp. when there're 3 syco practices this week. super tiring lah... But well... can't complain... Performance is this sunday... and today's (fri) the last practice.. For the performance and for this year as well... After sunday.. we say goodbye to syco 2007. Will i say hello to syco 2008... it's still a mystery.. even to myself. Should i stay for another year? or should i just let go? i know there's something, some reason that i wanted to stay.. but what if after staying for one year.. i want to stay for another year? i dun want to dilemma to come all over again. Maybe beautiful sunday can help me decide... how? only my heart will know.

Ok.. that's all for now. Nitex.

If There're Seasons

I think the happiest thing that happened over the weekend was... i went to watch this with via and ling.. It was their last show for this season. It's not a delibrate decision to watch the last show. but we were actually left with not much choice. or rather. no choice. But glad thou.. at least we got to see it. :) My sisters and my mother got so jealous when i came back and asked me how come i didn't buy tickets for them or didn't ask them to go... But i hinted so many times already! dotx.




After much anticipation... finally and unfortunately.. it's over. the songs are cool. that's no doubt. the actors are good! My fav is of cos 陈瑞彪 (Sebastian Tan)... er. ever since long ago lah.. and that's one the reasons why i insisted on watching this show cos i missed too many of his musicals already... and i dun think i can afford missing another one. Moreover.. in my memory i haven't really seen any chinese musicals be4. After watching this show. i really have the urge to start getting in touch with the company and such... And in fact. i'm going to do so. :)


Ok.. back to the show. Even though Sebastian (A-Qiang) not like the main main character of the musical... I still like his singing lah. A singer after all... A winner of a singing competition after all... Yeah.. :) George Chan (A-Le) was not bad too... had to switch between current and pass for a few times. Ok. This is becos his ex-girlfriend (Xiao Jing) was dead already. In between, there was some recollection scenes. So the thing is that the actor(s) has to change their expressions and mood in a split second so that the audiences would know what's happening. And i think they did it quite well.. But of cos in addition, the lightings changed when he start thinking of the past scenes lah. Joanna Dong (Rose) sang very well.. I think everyone already said that when she got into the 30finalists of Singapore Idol 2005. but i didn't watch SI.. so i will just say it now.. She got a really clear and powerful voice. Every word and note is clearly projected and presented to the audience. The cast wasn't very big... but i felt that they brought life to the stage. with all the chorus singing and dancing.


The one thing that is more touching is to know that this LOCAL CHINESE musical is getting a full house for their shows. Even the Drama Center wasn't big like Esplanade.. it has its numbers. and i think it's commendable for a chinese musical. what more to say a local one. Yes.. we see typical singaporeans in the show.. the typical way a typical singaporean will speak and act. But they are mature actors and actresses too! As the papers (Lian He Zao Bao) has published and say that there's kinda like a revival of chinese musicals with the recent Li Da Sha and this If There're Seasons... i would like to agree with it too.. And i'm excited to see more of such works coming up...


The music for this musical.. what more can i say abt them? They are all written by the established song writer.. Liang Wen Fu. my sisters' fav. I was too young then. All the XinYaos... thou there were some i've nv heard be4... most of them were familiar to my ears. It's like a reminiscence time when the actors started singing older works of his. Wow! like they made use of so many songs in this short 2h show! 35 in all! Some of them were my favs too. haha. Great gratitude for his contribution to the chinese music industry!


Then for the script.. seriously we are amazed.. he actually wrote and arranged the musical out of so many songs of Liang.. was thinking of how he chose them and arrange them and write a story that could link the songs together. Becos the songs are all ready-made.. it makes it more difficult to fit each song into a perfect situation. After reading the interview with the script-writer in the prog booklet. Got clearer of the picture. 50 songs out of 100+ to Liang's preference were chosen for him to write the script with. It makes things easier but still.. not that easy. But i think everything flow every well... there's no question mark of why is the song used at that very moment of the musical or whatsoever. So i'm totally impressed.


If i can work with them for even once... i'll be floating all over. haha! Anyway to those who missed it like my sisters. Well... u can wait till 2009. Think they will rerun the show again... WEll.. hopefully again. Perhaps i will give it another shot. :)



ps: you dun want to know how long i took to type all these.
pps: 'If There're Seasons'... I dun want Yeo's. LOL!! ok. i like yeo's better =x

Some domestic matters.

Yeah!! Miraclely... my modem is working now!! Wasted my time to bring it down to the service centre... i was so pissed cos it seems working fine using their adaptor, cable and everything. Then i dunno what happened but the other lights just suddenly lid up after i connect to the laptop for a while... so i tried with my desktop again. well! Tada. :) Sudden magic. haha.

There's so many things i want to blog abt!! Anyway. School first... These 2 weeks. we got 2 attachment talks to listen to... and of cos.. we will be attached to 2 different events in Oct. Feeling quite excited and looking forward to them thou i know that it's really going to be a tough period to deal with. But I do like challenges. Or at least... i have to learn to like challenges. and i think somehow it developed a bit ever since i started working at samsonite cos every day is really a new challenge. I rmb not liking changes of any kind to my life.. to anything i planned. i think i need to adapt to it for the sake of my future. :)

It was an early day... walk out of school with caiwen, khai and weixuan. walked all the way to dhoby ghaut since we went to get rochor daohuay... well... it really feels good to be able to spend time with friends. even for that little while. what mattered the most was the interaction made possible through all these little times.

Anyway... last week our lecturer introduced this website to us during our lecture break.. after seeing khai playing facebook. haha. Ok.. Facebook is quite fun... but i dun really have all the time and energy (mental) to play it... just like once in a while kind of thing. Anyway... the website she gave was really quite cool and it's called 'wefeelfine'. click here to access. u'll be surprised. go explore when u have the time and dunno what to do online. :)

Attitude problems?

I promise to go change my modem soon.. so that i can blog properly at my desktop... i really want to blog everything that happened... happiness.. tiredness... frustrations and whatever. By wed i promise lah. argh.

Sometimes i really hope i could read ppl's mind and have a solution for anything that can change them for the better. I didn't mean to be so bu shuang... but well... if that's the attitude some ppl want to give.. why can't the other ppl give back the same attitude too? I believe in 'do unto ppl as you want ppl to do unto you'. Serious. ppl who are in the wrong first have the cheek to well... blame the person who merely show the accumulated frustration. I couldn't tell what made the changes in attitude.. well. perhaps the change in OUR attitude first.. Of cos. it wasn't their fault.. but if they had came more frequently.. the mistake might have been changed earlier. Isn't it? So i dun see why the kind of lousy attitude upon being asked to change it. Sometimes it doesn't feel good to be pulled down by the others... but afterall we are all in the same grp which IS SUPPOSED to bring everyone together... ok. used to be... dun really feel it anymore.

Of cos... when i started typing this. i'm well aware of any lousy consequences... but i believe in speaking my mind. so i dun care.. like what ppl always say.. this is my blog. if other ppl can say anything in their blog. why can't i? Moreover.. i didn't use any aggressive language and extremes.

Haix. what has the world become? 有时候人生真的很无奈。也许大家需要一点冷静的时间。也许一切以后都不一样了。好可惜。

Nothing else to say le. it's going to end soon. I really have to give serious thoughts abt the future. haix.

Missing the teachers..

Of cos... today is Teachers' Day! Well... i so wanted to go back to sac... i think i miss my teachers there... should have woke up earlier ytd morning to go over to sac be4 heading for work... but i totally forgot after work ytd... HAIX. When will i have time to go back... and when will the teachers have time for me?

It's really been years since i last went back to my former schools... ALL of them... rss, sacss and nyjc. of cos it applies esp. to rss... the last time i went back.. i think it was sec1 or 2... =X omg... so bo xim right. haix. actually i do miss the teachers who taught me be4.. but then again. i always wonder where are they now... still teaching? retired? I'm only sure that han laoshi is still teaching in rss. Hmm... i decided that i'm so going to get her contact from liu laoshi. since we just mentioned abt her lately...

I miss ye laoshi's interesting and engaging chinese lessons.. i miss mr tan's full of laughter science and english lessons... mr gan's fun maths lessons. miss the times we smuggle food and drinks into class and worse.. eating them during class... miss my maths teachers.. instilling the interest for maths in me... and the chinese teachers too... and mr khoo who left after teaching my p3 class. he's really nice. and those relief/temp/trainee/ teachers... always managed to get in contact with them pretty much! and of cos miss the times in co! with mingyan... with my seniors, juniors, and the days i played double bass... and the days we were learning from mr low and mr quek... evening thou i met them and learn from them later... it's just different... really. that's so much abt pri sch?

Sec school.. what more can i say. i miss my sec3&4 teachers!! Esp. Mr. Robb.. cos i know that it's rather impossible to see him again since he already resigned and went back to new zealand... and then.... ms chua, mrs heng, mrs boo, mrs yong, ms tan, ms lim and many others... tsk tsk. I wasn't really a good student back then lah... but it's very good to know that the teachers are very forgiving and i think they already forgot that i always sleep during class... =x

Finally when we talk abt nyjc.. who can replace lin laoshi, xu laoshi and mr bong? reminds me of the accounts lecturer for my accounting module now. his name is like TL's name and bong's surname combine. lol! but i think he's far less interesting than the above 2... and that's not very good. cos lessons are very dry... till only a few from the class turned up the last time. at least very few came on time. dotx. anyways... side-tracked. haha!

For all i hope... wish the teachers who taught me before a very very happy teachers' day! And now is their one week hol le... hope they will enjoy the weekend at least.. and hopefully seeing them coming to Isetan and buying luggage from me. lol! =P Eh.. teachers of lim wan ying... pls come to Scotts Isetan on sat from 2 to 9.30pm 4th level Event Hall... and see me! haha. ok. crap.

Ok lah.. tired liao... but i really hope that my teachers.. pass and present are doing well... And have good students like me. haha! ok lah. i'm not one... :)

Nitex. And well.. happy birthday to chinteck and my godma.... and happy belated birthday to jocelyn and jianyuan! :))
