School.. Assignments... Projects...

Hmm... i know i promised the Healing hands 3 review... But then... the pictures i wanted to upload... is in my desktop... and unfortunately it died on me again when i return home today... so damn suay lah... but anyway... shall not talk about that first...

Fortunately.. it's already the last day of the week! Tmr we are going to have another small presentation for Michele's class... and my grp... including sharon, sijia, vivien, liyana and of cos me... we hope that what we are going to do is really different and more interesting and could catch their attention... And oh no! i just realised i haven't decide who to interview for her assignment... dotx... Nv realised that time really past so fast.. haha...

Today... we've come to know that next week is the last 2 session for John's class... quite sad thou... i think dance is fun.. thou he didn't really go into dance... but he really thou what are the foundations for all dances... and really make us think... like asking us to do the written assignment the other time abt Roman architecture affecting dance... and i had the comment that i had a good point there.. =) But well... after that it's theatre.. hopefully it's interesting too..

And today's the first lesson for Mary's subject... erm... marketing to the arts context.. like ravi's class... we already decide on the proj grp that we are going to work with... and when we will present.. it's just so funny how the last row of ppl can get left out while everyone is looking for their grp member when we dun even have the chance to pick a paper out of the box. haha. and so we formed a grp... fortunate or unfortunate.. who knows?! it's more funny when there were absentees... how can there be not enough for all.. right? haha..

So anyway... tmr and yet another long day... be4 the weekend break... and i really have to sit down and plan... well.. at least for sunday... thou things are set.. timing isn't set... sat is erm... already packed.. haha.. and i had to decide when to watch the dance movie... and when to visit national lib for jeffrey's class... and well.. my mum insisted i go to work... like how?? i wished i could... i'm hard on cash... haix..

Well... no time to waste.. so off i go... still got much stuff to do... sighx..

busy weekend

Had a busy weekend...

Went to nus on sat for practice... which the session ended early at 5.30 and many ppl went off to watch a concert... and there were only a few of us left... (note: er-jie didn't go) So i went dinner with the very last few left... haha.. who were suyi, yuhui, andrew, jiahui, weixun and yongxin.. had dinner at clementi.. and we sat there... talk and talk.. about music blah blah.. and left ard 10pm... and returned home by train with weixun.. the only 2 ppl living in the east among the ppl... anyway was still earlier than er-jie in returning home... haha...

The prac itself was ok... when i reached there.. they started already lah.. so i just join in the hong qi qu... 3rd movement... then started on lan hua hua... erm... a rather easy and slack song for erhu... cos it's a erhu concerto what... so ya... ok lor! haha...

Sun... went to meet up with the cc ppl... play a while... had lunch with them and rot at cc... take erhu and lian a bit... left ard 5pm to meet my family... going out to eat.. be4 going to raffles hotel... we went to esprit cos er-jie wanted to look for a top that she found in hongkong but doesn't have her size... but in then i was the one who bought a top.. cos dun have in that outlet also... haha..

Had dinner at erm... i think the rest is called seah street deli... had Salmon... my fav... lol.. treat by mummy.. thou it's dad's sub-card. lol... and although it's really troublesome to even get inside raffles hotel cos there were security checks... the meal was enjoyable... And we went into Samsonite for a while... chatted with khairul and edwin for a while...

Today was a slacking day again... i was trying to help mum do a set of the show... but my com had to give me prob at the very beginning... so had to wait wait wait for it to rest first... and i only did like 4 out of 30 so far! dotx...

Anyway.. if u all still dunno... Liao Zhai is starting today on chn U 10pm! It's like one of my fav... bt it's a whole new series casting actors and actresses from taiwan, singapore, hongkong and china... it consist of 6 stories altogether and of cos all were acted by diff ppl lah.. the current story is "判官(pan guan)" acted by 王禄江 (bryan wong)... and subsequently there will be a new story after every 6episodes... so dun need to worry if u miss the front... can always start watching a new story. haha... other main ppl u will see are 林志颖(jimmy lin), TAE, 杨丞林(rainie yang), 江华, 李冰冰 etc... and below are some photos from the scenes... pictures taken from mediacorp website...

Didn't manage the rainie yang pic... kept on error... whatever it is.. watch the show!!! =)

Going to watch Healing Hands 3... hmm.. shall talk about that show another time.. last 3 episodes le..! byebye!

my past thoughts

Many times when we do something silly or what... people will always say in future when we look back at what we did... we will laugh at ourselves.. I think it's quite true...

When i went back to read my diaries when i was in lower sec.. or even pri sch... i think that everything was like so funny and why would i even do that... so to also see how strict my mum was... although she still is now.. and how much i used to complain... to myself lah... and how i didn't use to like both my sisters at all... Really.. i rmb i didn't like my sisters.. or even my mum... cos i always feel that she's bias... sometimes i still feel that she still is now.. but well.. as i grow older... i stop caring about these things...

Like i've mentioned in the entry about my sisters be4... i can't get along well with my 2nd sis.. at all.. when i was much younger... i think it's the age gap... plus my parents' mentality that i shouldn't be doing some stuff at that age becos my sis didn't do it at the same age too... so i was rather unhappy all the time lah... haha... like so stupid.. but just felt that i'm rather fortunate already... i think the most frequent phrase i read thru the book was "i scared mummy dun allow". haha.. seriously... i'm not so daring as er-jie in the past... she will go like anywhere after sch without telling mum and still did not get scolded.. i dunno why.. perhaps she claimed that it's cos of sch... but i nv did that be4... so weird... thou i lied quite often too... but not as successful maybe.. lol. so after all i'm still a guai1 person.. HAHA. i think my friends will laugh when they see this sentence too. lol

Maybe also becos i'm the youngest at home.. so they will always view me as 'still young'.. although i've reached the 'legal age' for many things... think i'm still in the transition period for my parents to decide that i'm really old enough to take care of myself late outside... hopefully...

Ok.. going off... Anyway today's plan to sac was called-off cos of the heavy rain that time... what a cold blanket.. but seriously when there's heavy rain.. no one will feel like going out... not me either.. haha... so i stayed at home and rot.. erm.. till now.. heex.

My com...

Hmm.. ytd i spent the whole aftn trying to repair my com.. All by myself... cos after the monitor is all ok... it says i have some files missing and thus cannot start the windows... so i had to go thru the setup process... and in midst of it... dunno why my cd-rom drive couldn't read the windows XP disc... and it spent me a little more time there... and alas! It's done... and i'm using desktop now.. =) And i didn't call any technician up yet... maybe i should.. just to check out what the problem was.. in case it's going to happen for my next assignment again.. (Choy!!!)

Yet one week later... i'm 80% confirmed going to zouk tmr.. haha! with my AM classmates that is.. to celebrate yet.. one of their birthdays... yes... clubbing and birthday tgt again.. haha.. i tot that was what i did last fri?! lol... and i actually didn't turn up ytd when wx asked me to go zouk too... Haha.. whatever... it means i just have to get over my mum's stage again...

Anyway... had michele's class today.. and well... did quite a bit of sharing today... unlike the last session cos i was in a bad mood... anyway... i think we all learnt something today... actually and last week as well... and frankly speaking.. i quite like her classes... cos it is one of the lessons that gives us some practical view of what we will be doing in future.. in the most direct way... Thou the report and presentation we are going to deal with will be like 'omg'... but i shall do my best... =)

Ohoh... Sis is back!!! Haha... thou she didn't buy ANYTHING for me lah... dotx... cos she claimed that she already got me a Stitch from Disneyland the other time she went US.. so Fine... but she came back with mooncakes... Haha. just the season! =)

Ya.. maybe that's all for today... tmr will be going back to sac... hmm... looking forward to it actually.. i guess the teachers look forward to seeing us too!! Lol.. well.. hopefully lah...!

STPI trip

I revived my desktop... and yet it died again today... so damn sad lah.. how can like that treat me... think afterall i still had to call the repair man here... sianx... and well.. obviously i can only be using the lappy now... it's nice of cos to use it... but not when it's rather empty.. sighx...

Anyway... went for John's class today and we had the quiz! Some were quite easy while some were difficult cos i didn't come across them when reading my notes!! So i merely guessed the ans... cos guessing is better than leaving blank.. right? haha..

Then a grp of ppl from the class plus me.. went down to funan to eat be4 going to Singapore Tyler Printing Institute (STPI)... erm... walked quite a long way... but it's quite worthed.. although it's quite long lah... we left the place at like 5pm! and walked all the way back to clarke quay mrt there to take bus home... was damn tired... anyway i stopped at ntuc and i bought Gelato Dark Choco ice-cream home lah! haha.. =P

Anyway... STPI... the place is cool... we get to see how they actually make a print thru a video... and we visited their workshop also.. seeing those machines real.. and coincidently someone was doing some kind of putting 2 diff paper tgt.. so we stood and watch.. And they actually make their own paper! so cool... and at the end of the day.. we were each given a Frank Stella 2002 book that was published i think when he went to STPI as artist-in-house.. cool..!



Anyway.. this is the picture of our artist pass for beautiful sunday... nice right.. haha... those were the ppl dining at nydc.. but peiqian came later.. so no pass.. Anyway mine is at the top right hand corner lah... heex

That's all... Ciaoz~!

SYCO over...

Haix.. just as i was blogging about my com giving me a scare last thurs and fri... it's not giving me probs again.. dotx.. it's really like... maybe it really need servicing again... and it just blacked out cos i wanted to adjust my speaker's wire... so not worthed lah!! and i'm using er-jie's laptop now lor..

Last thurs... i accidentally erm... knocked over my cpu.. and it was stuck.. the worst thing was.. my dance assignment that was supposed to be handed in on that day wasn't printed out yet.. so like... panic lah... so asked er-jie to help me lah... in the end managed to get image back on the monitor... so printed and went to sch... was late lor!! it was really a bad way to start the day lah.. was like so sad for the rest of the day lor...

But Forbidden City was good!!! Although it's the 2nd time i'm watching it... (watched it once in 2003).. but still find it very nice.. and i will go down to esplanade to buy the soundtrack when i have the time.. i really will!! i really liked Kit chan's vocal... so clear and beautiful.. and i like their use of stage and style of changing the scene too.. It really nice!!! =))

Fri erm... wasn't exactly a good day in sch too... but passable lah.. just that i spent my whole lunch break to finish up hazel's assignment that i had to hand in on that day... cos of my com lor.... thurs night came back can't use again... and fri morning was too late to do it.. so i brought lappy along and do during break lor... And luckily i rushed it out... and that morning i was nearly late for michele's lesson also lah.. but to my surprise.. there were only 3 ppl in the class when i reached at abt 9.55+?? haha... so in the end only 16 ppl turned up for that class lor..

After jeffrey's class which i struggled very long as to whether to stay anot.. went down to tanjong pagar to pass the lappy to da-jie to bring home.. cos i'm going for SYCO's prac and after that to MOS... so u see... yea.. cabbed down to MOS after prac... reached there slightly be4 10... and left ard 12.30am cos another person who lives in bedok already wanted to go home.. well... i have no much objections lah.. cos i'm tired already also.. and luckily i didn't stay to dance more... to think that the ache actually came back the next day... i nearly died lah...

Sat went NUS with sis... but oh man... i dunno why... i dun feel like practising at all... cos i was so tired and i was so disturbed by the waist prob... i sat outside from 4+ till we left... and i fell asleep there.. =x and we came back quite early after dinner cos er-jie has to come back to pack for her HK trip and do some work be4 she left..

Today!! (Sun i mean..) It's the Beautiful Sunday: Sound of SYCO concert... it went on quite smoothly lah.... and now i've got one Esplanade Artist pass to keep!! haha.. It was rather fun actually.. And lin laoshi was quite right... Liang Xiao was the most traditional CO song played in the whole concert... it's the song that gives ppl the correct impression of what a CO is like... and i think we did quite well.. haha... After that saw quite many friends... erm.. those cc ppl... oh man.. they just disgraced me by calling out my name plus my nickname so loudly at the concourse.. like whatever.. and the sy ppl there just goes: 'really look like *censored* leh'.. what the..

But it's not becos of that that i didn't leave with the changkat friends lah... just that this is like the last syco thing for this year... so i went out with some of the sy ppl instead... i mean i can always go find them at tampines or what right... so ya.. went nydc with the sy ppl... and we sat there from like 5pm right up to 8 lah... and i had Hawai'ian baked pasta... it's nice.. lol.

Anyway.... we were doing quite stupid stuff also lah... and talking about anything that came to our minds... like speaking good languages? haha... Joel was funny lah.. cos he was putting on his retainer and he could hardly talk properly... Argh.. i didn't mean to laugh at him!! =x Ohoh.. forgot to say who were there.. haha... erm.. 12 of us altogether... hanson, jinjia, kuncherng, joel, shaun, peiqian, yuheng, zhiwen, jon ngeow, pauline, joyce and me... ngeow left first cos he was going to work.. then pauline and joyce left for home also... and the rest of us stayed till 8 lor... by that time the girls left already wanted to go home.. including me! haha.. so everyone decided to go home.. haha...

So i'm here.. blogging lah.. after trying upteem times to switch on my com again!!! haix.. shall try again tmr... think i'm not going for jeffrey's class tmr lah... need to rest.. think i'll seek the sinseh again tmr... it's really killing me much... i mean my back/waist.. sianx...

Doing work at lib!

am doing my work in bedok lib now with sylvia.... i'm using sis' lappy... but then dunno why cannot check my mails.. haix.. actually i'm just a bit tired lah.. started on my academic writing essay... but there's still quite a long way to go.. but again... no matter what.. it's better than erm... doing a presentation lor.. hahaha.. i seriously doesn't like the feeling of presenting... although when i went for the course interview.. i told the interviewer that i have no prob with it... of cos lah.. if not say what right.. haha...

Although the marketing has already past... i know that there are more to come lah... sometimes it just makes ppl think after the first grp presentation that do i still want to work with the same person again... or.. who do i want to work with next... actually i have nothing against working with different ppl or ppl who are not my choice.. as long as everyone does their own part on time.. but problems surface when not only i need to do my part... i still have to do other ppl's part.. that would be quite unfair isn't it..

But i guess sometimes we just have to bear with whatever we have... whoever we are (working) with.. cos ultimately when we enter the society.. that's reality that everyone has different working style... the thing is to compromise with each other... if not end of the day the only one that is unhappy could probably only be urself... am i not right?

Anyway... whatever it is.. i think i got to enjoy myself erm this weekend after handing the assignments for the time being... erm... first is forbidden city tmr night... am really looking forward to it since the last time thou i have to miss ravi's lesson tmr night... felt quite bad too since it's the last time ravi will be with us.. he had really tried his best to bring across the contents we need to know.. trying to make it not so boring... actually i quite enjoyed his lessons lah... just that he always didn't have time to finish whatever he wanted and we had to end up doing our own readings very much..

Then got to enjoy fri too... not the lessons thou... ok.. i quite enjoy michele's class... but jeffrey.. i dunno.. at least i was awake lah... so dun ask for too much.. haha.. and there's also a run-through for sunday's performance.. and after that i had to attend yinghan's invitation.. oh man.. i haven tell my mum that i'll be home late yet... sianx...

Wow... i took so so so long to type this... cos i stopped many times to do my work and when i'm tired i come back to this informal stuff... hah.. cos it's already like 2.30 now? lol.. ok.. should go back to my work at full force liao... byebye..

A terrible experience

Hmm.. just as i handed in joyce's work ytd... i have yet another assignment's deadline coming... that's hazel's academic writing... sometimes it is just difficult to get started doing a piece of work.. haha... ok lah.. i started liao!! Cos the have to hand in like fri?? and i think i only have the whole of tmr to do it... cos thurs there will be lessons and forbidden city at night! oh man... i hoped i have lesser things to do... but it's a good thing that spco has postponed their concert.. somehow lah... so it's not necessary to make it there tmr... and i can do my stuff right into the night..

Oh-oh... there is something i must mention... some unpleasant experience thou... last sat my sis and i were having dinner at the ke-ai-ji coffee shop at clementi with the nusco ppl... so while we were happily chatting away making jokes... there's this horrible sight right in front of me lah... suddenly there were some shouting from a man just the table in front of us... think they were quarreling cos of some money issues lah... the man was already standing up... and what i heard from the others was that the man started punching another man sitting at the same table... now that wasn't all... the next thing i saw was... the man standing up took out a beer bottle from the pail and the next thing u know... he smashed the bottle on the other man's head... there were another 2 ppl there at the same table... during the 'fight'.. they were either pushing down the man to let the other hit.. or trying to stop the man from hitting.. i dunno.. it just happened too fast... and the 3 of them left the bloody man (as in really red blood) there... ppl around were all shocked... at least 2 tables on the left and right of them quickly make their move... and us.. due to the no. of ppl we have and the fact that most haven finish their food... we didn't leave... the injured man started to put clothe over his head to stop the blood... and soon after he was taken away... and later a few policemen came to investigate... but there wasn't much left lah.. we continued sitting there.. but the girls do not have any more appetite to finish their food... but u see the guys sitting down and continued eating...

Anyway... i can tell u the scene is really awful lah... and it can really be traumatising... and frankly i felt quite scared after that.. at least for a while... and the image is still so vivid... i can barely forget a thing about it until today... cos that was the first time i see such thing happening.. right before my eyes... and hopefully it's the last time lah!!

Other than that.. actually everything was quite all right la.. nothing much on sunday... slacked half the day away and went to the IT fair- Comex at Expo... and alas!! A new lappy! haha... ok lah.. my sis paid 2k and i paid 2hundred. lol.. but the point is i get to use it too... erm.. when i need to lah.. heex..

And ytd... i met via for lunch and went to sch after that to hand in my work.. and after that supposed to go for movie.. but due to my sy prac... and the late timing for the movie... we had to forgo it lah.. so we walked around trying to kill time... haha... left town ard 6.30.. initially wanted to pass er-jie her book for jap class... but i actually brought the wrong book for her.. so in the end she didn't go for her class lah.. felt so guilty lor... and i was a bit late for prac lah.. plus started with liang xiao... but good thing also.. means can go home after that... so sis waited for me... but in the end i was the one waiting at the mrt... haha... and we went home tgt lor..

Ok.. i guess i have to carry on with my work... if not i'll never get it done.. haha.

A tribute to my teachers..

Since the day hasn't past yet... would like to wish all my teachers Happy Teachers Day... all who taught me in Red Swastika School (94-99), St. Anthony's Canossian Sec sch (00-03), Nanyang JC (04-05), my CO instructors and my violin teacher. Hmm... let me list a few teachers that left me with vivid memories...

I rmb my english teacher in pri 1... she punished me to stay back and finish my work during recess.. somemore she used a ruler and hit my palm... i was crying while doing the work lah... haha... but eventually i got a band 1 for my english! (only in p1 thou) =X

I rmb all my maths teachers in primary school... i only had 3 altogether for the 6 years... and all of them are very good lah... and the one that taught me in p1 actually confiscated my kor and my sticker albums one day... haha... wow.. that was how naughty i was in p1.. lol.

And i rmb han laoshi... she only taught me for 1 year.. chinese in p2. but she's the teacher-in-charge of CO... and she's really a nice lady.. gave me a lot of encouragement and chances esp. when i was in p6... :) i visited her in rss a few years back and we chatted for quite a long time... i hope i still have the courage to step into the school to visit her again cos everything is so different now.. oh man.. i do miss her a lot!

I still rmb my chinese teacher for p5 and 6.. the same person.. a strict but good teacher. i wasn't a very homework person but i never dared to not finish her work... cos she will scold and punish! But that's the way she got almost the class get A* for Chinese for PSLE. Including me! haha. then after we graduated, she transferred to another school and i think she should be retired by now...

My maths teacher for sec 1 changed for a few times be4 ms chua taught us... and she is really good... she's like the first teacher that i had a close talk to... but in sec 2 she became the internal VP and can't teach us anymore. Occasionally when i return to sch i still talk to her! :)

How about the chinese teacher that freaks me out each time she calls my name?~! And she forced me to be her chinese rep for 2 years!! NOt that i dun like chinese... but it's the teacher that is wrong... haha. My sac friends should know who i'm talking about lah.. Argh... and stop relating me and her! dotx..

I rmb my new zealander emaths teacher mr robb... he never fails to ask me if i handed in my work cos i dun usually do that on time. And becos of that.. he never fails to be surprise that i did well for my exams which i usually do.. Haha.. But he's damn zai lah... like he can calculate anything without using a calculator... anyway he already left and went back to NZ.

Another maths teacher... amaths teacher mrs heng, she is always so nice and caring... but she doesn't have a good health herself... but always smiling and helping us whenever we ask... of cos helping some of our classmates to jump grade from F9 to B3? wow.

Not forgetting my form teacher for sec 3 & 4... plus her best friend... my chem teacher... the class nv fail to make them subjects of the lesson and started gossiping there... wait.. both of them are females... but we always suspect that they like to gossip about us... so we must try to dig out something lah...

And my geog teacher... who is also strict but can be humorous too... always felt very stressed during her lessons.. but i must admit that she's really a good teacher that teaches all the skills needed.. but my end result for geog was lousy.. a 4! she was the one who waited for us to return after our syf in sec 4 to congratulate us... touched! haha.

My econs tutor in J2.. Mr bong!! nv failed to help us in our revision... doing whatever he could to help us all.. including me... bugging him only the last sem of j2... i think he's the reason if i return to ny... but each time i nv get to see him.. hopefully the next time..

My cla tutors for j2.. they are always so nice and cute... esp. xu laoshi.. he has retired as we left college..

Never forget laoshi and mr quek for starting burning the fire of passion for music in me... all the way back in p5.. i wouldn't have continued if i haven't met such great instructors then... seriously.. i thank them for who i am today in CO... :)

And my violin teacher.. for pushing me so far... i didn't really like violin-ing so much after i started learning it.. eventually i made it to the end.. and he was quite nice towards the end.. always offering me say breakfast or bringing me to concert or whatever...

Hmm.. i think that's all.. erm.. just wanna clarify... the teachers that i didn't mention.. doesn't mean i've forgotten them... just that they haven't make as great impact in my life..

Lastly.. i wanted to wish my friends happy BIRTHDAY lah.. Happy ONE DAY Belated Birthday to Jianyuan and Jocelyn tay.. and Happy Birthday to Chin Teck!! and my godma (not that she will read lah.. duh..)

I rmb this song that we sang in pri sch..
"We thank u teachers one and all
for all u've done us big and small
today we sing in praise of thee
for the love and care u always give so free..
We thank u teachers one and all
we love u most of all
we'll make this day so cheerful and gay
and let us sing a Happy Teacher's Day"!

There's another chinese song... but i can't really rmb the whole thing... think the first line is "这是小小的一朵花,里面有我们想说的话,谢谢老师谢谢你," then i forget liao.. if anyone still rmb.. come and tell me kae! heex..

Another week passed!!

Oh man.. it's again another week! haha.. i'm just too lazy i guess.. even thou i was rather free for the past week... i rather get more sleep.. haha.. how about sleeping for almost.. i said almost 12h for 2 consecutive days and still felt tired? =x

Anyway... what happened was... i went to esplanade library in search of books for my report... and then went for syco sectionals where hongqing and i were the only persons there.. while the other 2 were busy with i dunno what... and eventually we ran out of things to practise.. haha.. so we did our own things... and chatted for a while be4 the session ended..

Thurs... can't rmb what i did... think i was just at home erm... slacking lah... Ohoh!!! i know... i went to tamp... and got my sis and i 2 CDs... using her vouchers... i bought David Tao's Tai Mei Li and F.I.R's album... to think that i forgot... i just added them to my 'NEW' playlist.. eh... talk about the songs another time...

Then fri went studying with via at national lib... the study corner is really a cool place... erm.. nothing much for that day except for we went to Art friend first and i got myself some tools... and strings.. haha... now i have more strings for friendship bands!! =))

Sat... was a long long day... and i dunno how long i nv wake up so early liao lor... 7am leh!! went to MCO with via and yong hong in laoshi's car... after had mos at causeway point and chatted... then went nus to look for sis... my blur blur sis forgot that we are going for a concert... aiyo.. dunno tell her how many times liao lor... if not i wun make the effort to go nus after the tired morning also lor...

Ya.. so went to the concert featuring violinist Chan Yoong Han and erhuist Zhao Jian Hua... it's quite cool... but it might be cooler if they play a double concerto.. haha... okok... think too much liao... the concert is much of a fusion between oriental and western music ba... but i like the dance songs most... more lively mah... Then... so qiao~!! my violin teacher was sitting at the row behind me lor... and man.. he couldn't recognise me until i called him... dotx... sis said it's probably cos i was wearing contacts... haha... whatever... maybe next time i will consider learning from his son... (if i ever go and learn again..) i.e. the violinist i mentioned just now...

sun... 12 then wake up lor... Lol... then after lunch downstairs.. nua a while and went to jan's house.. to nua also.. with yushi lor... mahjong for a while... win a bit wor... haha... had pizza for dinner... very full lor!! then cabbed home ard 10 cos we were too lazy to walk across to the bus stop.. seems so far away... haha...

And i nua-ed for monday too!!! Lol... until sy that night... like also 12 then really woke up lor... and i still felt sleepy leh... weird lor... and tues had lessons till 1.. and met up with via to study at bedok lib... but i admit i was sleepy while reading the many many pages readings for dance lor... and i haven finish yet.. dotx.. it's just a little too much for one sitting... like after almost 3 hours lah.. but i'm a slow reader too.. so.. bleahs..

Anyway... ya... that's all.. tired... bye.. hopefully the next time i update is not one week later.. hahaha...

Can't say that i'm busy.... cos everyone knows that my sch life is slack!! haha.. but i've got my reasons lah.. haha.. reason 1: i got to do researches when i come online... and reason 2: i'm seldom online during the peak hours cos there's tv to catch! Healing hands 3 @ 8pm.. and Jiu Dian Feng Yun @ 9pm. Ya... and sometimes i will stay and watch Tian Ya Xia Yi @ 10pm.. plus if i miss the Miao Shou Ren Xin 3 @ 8pm... i will then watch the repeat at 11.40pm.. so u see... i'm more a tv person now! Haha.

Anyway will be getting busier now... even thou i only have 1 day of sch this week! Haix... really have a lot of researches to do.. and worst of all i have to visit different libraries to get the books... And!! I haven thought of what topic to do for the 2nd part of the history of music assignment.. And well... the music course has ended.. it means no more joyce starting from next week... it will be some male teaching history of dance! haha. Anyway... another 13 days to due of joyce's assignment... sickz. ok.. have to pia already...

Plus plus... Mkting presentation is on 31 aug.. which is next thurs.. i dunno.. but hopefully we are able to get everything done... cos we rarely meet and talk about it.. plus 2 grp members are involved in womad... which is rather tiring for them really... dun think they have much time lah... but perhaps we just have to do faster.! ok.. have to do the slides either tml or thurs...

And for hazel's essay... 2 weeks and 3 days to finish up too... decided the topic, but not really the scope cos it's too big a topic and there's many areas to explore.. been trying hard to look for all the materials... yes.. i found some.. but still clueless for some... if i can't find them... maybe i have to leave them out... sighx... ya.. so have to write out a draft before next lesson... which is 2 weeks later~! how nice... and how weird too... everything is like so rush!!! ok.. whatever.. i think i can do it lah..

Anyway.. on a lighter note.. i went to Batam over the last weekend.. like really finally!! And i enjoyed a lot... and thanks to my aunt and cousins.. they are like feeding us like pigs... haha... And total relaxation over the 2 days... we went quite early in the morning... reached there ard 11am of their time (they are an hour slower)... and went over to my cousin's reflexology shop and had a full body massage.. it was good... but a bit pain too cos she used a lot of force.. haha. Then back to aunt's house for lunch.. had crabs lah... then went to do some shopping at the new mall... 2 new wacoals from da-jie.. different colour of the same pattern.. heex.. bought quite a lot of things from the supermarket... of cos my fav wafer biscuits -- Tango Chocolate flavour! =))

Had seafood at night with meili-jie's family and ah-shui ge.. heex... the fish, and crabs again!! ya.. plus calamaris and prawns and kangkong.. a nice meal of cos! And later in the night when we get back to aunt's house... er-jie and i got to play dynasty warriors... eh.. ah-shui ge's PS2.. he's rich lah... he actually has the ddr mat.. and the guns for time crisis...! Next time go must play! we had quite little time so didn't play much.. since there were only the 4 of us (dad didn't go).. we stayed at aunt's house for the night... and i think sleeping on the insignificant mattress worsen the sprain of my waist.. so ya.. it has not recovered yet... sighx...

Then the next morning... woke up quite early for a sunday... i think is 8am their time. had goreng pisang for breakfast and we started playing again. since there was nothing to watch in the morning... played till it's time to move on... to our foot massage at the same place... cool... really... then it's soon lunch time again! Lunch at the place we visited a few times for its fish soup.. and calamari, samba fish head, fried chicken... And pls! Avocad (avocado juice) is a must drink when u are in batam! Ah-peng korkor and his family joined us and aunt and ah-shui ge for the lunch. and it's their treat... =)) Conclusion is we didn't pay for any of our meals there lah... except for some snacks we had while shopping... heex.

So that afternoon was shopping again... there wasn't anything much.. we didn't go to our favourite matahari departmental store... i dunno why... i still like going there.. but nonetheless... my mum bought me a pair of neckerman sandals!! Yeah... i was still thinking whether to buy it anot when my mum and sis insisted that i buy and wear that to sch... well.. fine then.. since someone is paying for me.. why not~!? but it's a long time since i wore a pair of sandals... so ya.. need time to get used to it again... anyway i like it! Neckerman! haha.. after that we went back aunt's house.. a bit of rest time... er-jie and i had our aftn nap... after watching some boring show on chn 8.. Yes. they receive sg chns very clearly.. even radio channels! since long time ago lah.. ah-shui ge has been listening to 93.3fm years ago.. way before he was married.. haha.. Ya.. So set off for the pier ard 5.. cos we booked the tixs for 6pm their time ferry.. and wanted to go there earlier so that we can shop and buy in the polo rafph lauren shop.. and guess what... er-jie bought me a polo skirt! Heex... it's nice lah... we bought a polo-tee for dad and da-jie bought one too.. by the time we reached harbour front after a one hour ride it was 8pm.. sg time.. cabbed home and had some dinner... had an rather early night lah..

Ok.. i must must must mention my little nephews and nieces!! They are just so so so cute... handsome and pretty! 5 of them currently... 2 nephews (both are meili-jie's) and 3 nieces (1 meili-jie's and 2 ah-peng korkor's) the youngest! only 7 months old.. she's really very cute and we predicted she will be pretty when she grows up..! And the cute little nephew -- pengpeng! he gets so happy when he hears 'chocolate'.. he's a chocolate lover too.. haha..too bad nv take photo of him..

MOn... no sch.. slacked a bit.. researched a bit.. and decided to clear my wardrobe... took out some clothes that 1. don't wear anymore, 2. cannot wear anymore. haha.. by the time i was very tired... but it was already 4plus i think... so i bathed... and decided to paint my toe nails.. with the nail stickers we bought back from korea.. has yet to use them... so ya.. i did my own nails!! it was successful until the last step of applying the top coat... didn't realise that the nailpolish wasn't dried yet... so the purple actually smurge over the flower stickers... dotx.. quite panicked lah.. cos mum is calling me for dinner... so hurriedly tried to clean the flowers and went to eat dinner first.. after dinner then apply the top coat and hurried off to sy..

My first combine for the coming concert.. was quite all right... but lele was still a bit lost.. hope can help her prac more on wed's sectionals.. and i came home with er-jie as usual on monday nights when she has her jap lesson and i have my sy pracs... Oh ya.. there will be NO sheng for this concert lah... so sad right... our 2 sheng players are all preparing for major exams i think... and i dunno... we'll see how the tuning goes..

And today (tues)!! this morning.. joyce was abt 30 mins late lah.. dunno why.. but ya... we sat at the canteen... bored.. so had our last lesson with joyce.. think i will miss the music lessons.. and the practical lessons... cos music is still what i love and i'm happy to learn them!! After lessons had lunch in sch.. quite sianx thou... only a few classmates stayed for hazel's class.. some were absent and the rest had womad stuff to attend to.. the class is pathetically small today lah.. class ended off at 4 and i made my way to town.. can u imagine.. for 2 hours.. i only shopped in wisma?? haha... Ya.. i visited all my favourite shops there lah.. i happily bought a brown top from U2 and after dad and mum came.... i happily bought an OP skirt!! I eyed on that skirt be4 they came lah... and i thought mum would buy it... anyway she did offer.. but i said i'll pay.. maybe cos she said i looked nice in it.. lol! i'm easy to please! haha.. and so i paid for it myself lah...

Anyway dined with the family @ Crystal Jade (jiangnan xiao chi) @ taka.. jason joined us... the food is really nice..! but they are not cheap.. it's supposedly an eat-out for my 2 sister's birthday which has already past long ago.. ok.. not long ago but like 5aug and 14aug.. ya.. and it was er-jie's treat lah.. thanks!!! I always enjoy times with my family cos nowadays when everyone is busy we dun really sit down and have dinner as frequently as before.. esp. when i was still working at Samsonite. and er-jie is always so busy... plus everyone has their own activities on diff nights.. that's why... but family is still the best! =))

Ok.. going off for now... well.. i missed tues' healing hands just cos i wanted to update lah.. so i had to catch it tml noon.. that's all until the next update! i dunno when lah.. i'm must lazier to update nowadays... =P

Almost a week..

Almost a week since i last blogged... wasn't feeling exactly well... and been a bit busy... either to school or going out for my own stuff lor...

As mentioned... i was having an ache... well still having it now.. already seen a sinseh last fri... and to my horror it was really painful the next day.. eh... but my mum says it's a norm.. so fine... but after almost a week... i'm still suffering lor... just not as bad lah... i think it's really the swim that worsen it... but i feel nothing during the swim leh.. weird... anyway... whatever lah.. hopefully after all the yoko-yoko i apply... it will recover soon.. haha.

Hmm... i think it's a good news.. i'm confirm going batam this weekend!! haha.. ya.. like finally.. if u are thinking.. again~!? then u are wrong.. cos we didn't go the last time i mentioned due to some misplanning... so ya.. after much confirmation.. we are going this time! but dad will not be going lah... he just didn't like it... after all.. there's nothing much for him to shop too... unlike us? haha.. Yupx. so i'll be away on sat and sun!! So.. refrain from calling and sms-ing on the 2 days unless u want to pay international charge kae! =) Oh.. or maybe i wun bring my phone.. well.. we'll see.

Anyway... just back from sy sectionals not long ago... dunno why.. but i always look forward to sy... and the feeling for combine and sectionals is just so different.. the atmosphere, the people.. actually everything except for the pieces.. felt more relax at sectionals... even when we combine with erhu... it's much better sitting in the orchestra.. dun ask me why.. BUT i must still say that syco is fun... like last sun we went to botanic garden and helped out.. we had quite a lot of fun there.. :) And listening to performance there is cool... just like ballet under the stars.. everyone just sit on the grass and watch... but it was a rather big event that day.. one of the 10th anni prog.. and MP Mr Raymond Lim was the GoH... and i got to shake his hands. haha.. anyway he think he's a nice person... cos he's the MP for Fengshan GRC.. too bad my block becomes part of Kampong chai chee now.. weird lah..!

Later in the evening after everything ended... via and i took laoshi's car back to kallang... by the time it was already 8pm.. and i was supposed to go uncle yeo's house for the bbq... so i suggested cab.. and i sent via to eunos mrt first before proceeding to frankel ave... hmm... quite enjoyed the night too... xiaoting jie-jie's husband did all the bbq-ing and it's really nice! how cool... next time must find someone who knows how to cook also.. haha.. ok.. out-of-point. Anyway xt has already flew back to us on monday... and she will only be coming back in dec... for the banquet... and later i dunno what..

Hmm.. i think nothing else... i'm tired... bye..

National day week

I'm back again! =))

That's day was really too tired le... anyway.. again.. weekends are coming lah.. haha... what a fast week... monday only went sch for 1 lesson... michele's arts management lesson.. then stayed back a while to discuss our marketing stuff... then came home...

Tues however.. i got to meet up with the cogang again!! =)) i was damn early after lessons lah... anyway lessons were rather relaxing on tues... cos joyce released us like an hour earlier cos she has to rush off to somewhere else... so we actually went to PS to have lunch... but omg... the place is so so crowded... we couldn't find a place that the class can sit tgt... so in the end the grp was split... and i had mos burger with caiwen and ning... And had Academic Writing (AW) class... quite a relaxed lesson too... just shared our views and our topics...

So ya... after lessons i went down to suntec to meet qin first... we were bored lah... so look for a place to sit and talk... till jan came and we went down to nydc... so dotx lah... first they dun let us put reservations... then they dun let us go in unless at 75% of the ppl is here... so stupid lor... so we waited for the others to come... eventually everyone was late... and finally we could go in and take a seat... by that time very hungry liao... Had spag for main course and 2x chocolate cheesecake for dessert... :)) After staying there for a while and settling the bills and stuff... we walked over to marina sq... to catch the fireworks... hmm... quite all right lah... =)

And ytd!! It was National Day!! Went to Er-jiu's house at 11+ in the morning... and stayed there till 9pm... quite an enjoyable day... seeing my cousins and all... i brought a box of chocolates that i bought from The Cocoa Tree a day earlier there too... and it was polished off by my young cousins in the end... glad that they liked it... next time i will buy a bigger box there.. haha.. =) And felt so cheated lah... thou er-jiu's house is really near to the stadium... but we couldn't see anything cos there's another block right in front that blocks everything! Dotx... luckily i watched the preview. haha.. =x But hey.. i missed all the national day songs that we used to sing in the past lah... so sad they changed everything and even used the children's day song as one of them starting a few years ago and this year even changed the melody a bit.. dotx..

This morning went swimming.. quite happy... but something's not right lah.. i'm like having a very bad sore on my back waist area... for days?! oh man.. and it's killing me today... can't even bend down properly.. haix... anyways.. that's all.. tml sch!!!

Weekends with nusco peeps..

Yaya... it's time to update cos i just have so many things to say!!! bear with me... =P

So... after my entry on sat... i actually went down to NUS with my sis... for the welcome tea... for the freshies of cos... but well... obviously i'm not one of them... however i wished i could lah... well.. it's all right u know.. i can continue to be the guest player and well.. enjoy every moment... i think it's kinda better to be a full member lah.. =x So when eric gave me a form to fill in... i didn't want to... and in the end the form was gone to i dunno where.. haha..

The event ended quite early.. and all the freshies left lah... and all left were members... and it was like ard 5pm.. the rest of us (ard 12ppl) were just sitting outside auditorium talking away... and later decide where to go... initially wanted to go watch fireworks.. but a lot of them didn't want to... so in the end we went jiahui's house to play! heex... It's just amazing how the whole grp of ppl can play A game thru the night on the Xbox lah... it's some racing game... but it's really nice to play lah... if not how we play from the like 7 to 11?? haha... And surprisingly we took mrt back lor... from like Boonlay~!? HAha... dunno if it's the last train... by the time we reached home walking back from bedok mrt.. it's already 12+ going to 1...

Then sunday... as i mentioned... it's so called the lim family gathering... erm.. it wasn't as bad lah... simply cos not everyone was there... and i think they can't be bothered also lah... the only person who asked what course i'm taking and blah blah blah was Qi-shen (7th aunt-in-law).. i think the other ppl know nuts... well.. it's ok lah.. save my energy from explaining as well.. Ok.. i didn't stay for dinner... went off 3+ to meet the nusco ppl (again) to watch hsinghai concert tgt at SCH... it's like free-seating... and due to the preferences in the seatings... i ended up sitting with suyi only cos the others didn't want to come up and join us.. dotx... we got a better view up there lah.. After concert went to eat at Maxwell market with them... and home sweet home after that...

About the concert itself.. it wasn't really a good concert... at least not up to my expectations... it's like the orchestra is not really familiar with the songs and scores... i expected better standard from them lah... some parts were really obvious lah.. which is bad... =x well.. i got to reconsider for their future performances... And my personal opinion... i just think that the dizi soloist depended too much on her scores... i mean if u are the soloist.... you should be more or less familiar with the whole concerto... but from what i saw was.. she was looking down at her scores throughout the whole song... i dun even rmb seeing her lifting up her head once.. the scores for a soloist is only for some instances that the soloist forgets that part or to make sure that everything is right... but not like still playing off the notes... and what for right?? even when it's the main melody.. i saw her looking at the scores instead of presenting it to the audience... which is not so good too.. :(

Anyway... i'm too tired to continue now... my eyes are going to close any moment... so bye..! =)

2nd week of school...

Hmm.. i'm quite bored now... so shall update.. and i'm like in er-jie's office now.. haha.. waiting for her to finish her work... to go to nus.. for their welcome tea.. haha..

Ya... It's august liao!!! so fast lor... and it's already 2 weeks since sch started... cool? maybe.. but it means that i have to start on all my assignments too... and now i have like exactly one month to finish the history of music assignment... sounds long? not when i dun even know where to start... dotx... shall consult other ppl... =x

Anyway.. last week was a rather relaxing week lah... firstly only 2 days of sch.. eh... no.. 1 and a half. haha.. but there's make-up lesson next week for the session we missed on fri... for principles of arts management.. michele is strict lor... but i think that's like one of the core areas that we have to take care of... and the assignment for that module is not easy too... sighx...
then the rest of the week.. nothing much... for sch... haha.

Be4 lessons on thurs... a few of us actually caught a movie at PS... 'Click'... this guy has the universal control in his hands and he can do whatever he wants... some parts are damn funny lah... aiya.. it's supposed to be a comedy... but anyway... i cried lah!! dotx... why? i wun say... haha... go and watch it urself lah... it's nice lah... :))

Oh... there's SY sectionals on wed... and wow... i should have gone to SCH last sunday man... the exhibitions were wonderful... in the concourse there's like this super big erhu and super big ruan... and super big dizi across the fountain... cool right... and wed was actually the last day of the event and we attended this short talk by 2 ppl whom i believed are some masters... and coincidentally they are talking about erhu... so most of us stayed to listen as we were told to do so... including lin laoshi.. it was already half pass 7 when we started sectionals... heex.. and last half hour the erhus came over to join us (gaohu and zhonghu) to combine for chu ye xiao chang... oh ya... i have another song to play for Beautiful sunday! hahaha... And well... i was the one that didn't come out most of the time.. quite screwed.. i also dunno why.. but next time wun le!! =)

Fri.. went to SCH again... to watch the performance of Gamelan asmaradana... think it's like the first time there for a lot of them... it's only normal cos it's more of a place for CO ppl... and i've been going there since it reopened in 2001.. anyway about the concert.. it was quite cool lah.. first time watching such concert... esp. after we were allowed to try out gamelan in the sch's gamelan room... and i know how to play!!! haha... thanks to my music background of course.. =) but becos gamelan doesn't have a conductor.. it's quite amazing how they start and stop... but the not-so-cool part is that we have a assignment for history of music based on that performance too... dotx... why our lecturer isn't a CO person.. haha.. ok lah.. just joking... it's good to be exposed to other kinds of music too... and i must say that joyce is a learned person in this area.. so envious that she has a whole collection of different kinds of music...

And after the concert... most of the class went for the WOMAD recce... while me.. went to look for er-jie at her office... spent an hour waiting for her to finish her work... and then went for dinner at maxwell market... then went to Party World ktv... with her bf and her bf's friend.. sing till 12am like that... then cabbed home lor... cool cool... i love to sing!! hahaha...

Oh.. did i mention that i finally went back to NY to collect my cert~?! haha... ya.. finally.. i saw the list most of my class ppl had already collected theirs... aiya... ok lah... my cert is not very ugly lah... at least i see a full cert. haix.. whatever. haha. Then i saw my juniors there... siuhon, minghao and julian... and i sat down and chatted with them for a while.. they are still the funny bunch of ppl i knew... haha... esp. the first 2.. haven seen them for quite some time.. then they asked me to go take a look at CO... haha.. i didn't... later i disappoint myself.. =x heard from junru that always very few ppl one lor... siuhon also said anticipated less than 10 ppl at practice.. dotx.. like that how leh?? dunno next year got enough ppl to go for syf anot... anyway it's not within my ability lah... too bad...

Finally it's weekends again!! Tmr going to SCH again! Haha.. to watch Hsinghai concert.. and next week is also a short week.. cos of national day!! monday make-up lesson from 1130 to 130... then.. tues lessons as usual lah... going to meet the girls at night and enjoy fireworks... must rmb to bring cam.. haha... then wed is national day.. thurs is sch founder's day.. so no sch too.. and fri lessons... good yea.. :))

After i've typed for so long... sis haven finish her stuff yet lah... sianx... dun type le.. paiseh the things are not quite in order.. haha... dun get confused and dun come after me.. lol... erm.. u think i care? bleahx~ byebye.

Slack~?! & A video...

I'm like waiting for the video to be uploaded onto my photobucket site... and it's taking a hell lot of time!! Another 20min to go... and it started like at least 15min ago... I'm bored.. haha.. Ok.. hopefully by the time i finished typing this... the video will be ready and i can share with everyone.. =))

So ytd... i.e mon... was practically slacking in the morning... and afternoon i finally decided to do something constructive... i.e to start my research for my assignments... i ought to start doing them now since all are due almost the same time.. right.. Ya.. found the one and only book useful to my topic at bdk lib... i ought to go down to national lib one day.. haha..

Then today.. only went school for 1 lesson... history of music... hmm.. actually it's quite interesting cos joyce talked about East Asia music... and mainly on chinese music... which is what i'm more familiar with! It's weird why my classmates started laughing at the music played to us... firstly i dun think it's funny... secondly i dun think it's appreciating the music... Sorry but i dun quite like the responses... But.. i'm not offended.. dun worry.. cos like joyce mentioned... 'when u dislike something.. it doesn't mean that it's not good.' so i'm still happy cos i find it good! Haha.. anyway maybe it's not such a bad thing after all cos no one made a sound when joyce started playing cds of jap traditional music... it's really very ritual kind.... and seriously.. it's too slow for me!

After school.. i came home.. and guess what!! i slacked!! HAha.. yes... i know... i think sch hours should be longer... and more school days!! i'm weird i know... who in the world wants more school right.. but right now it's doesn't really feel like school life at all... i thought i'm a full time student... but i feel more like a part time student and a full time slacker now. haha. cos.. no classes tml! =P

All right.. for the video now!! =)) It's actually the fireworks i recorded during NDP preview last sat.. eh.. quite short lah.. cos the first few moments i was busy snapping pictures... and caught a few nice ones be4 this 1+min long video.. so enjoy lor.. Anyway for better viewing pleasure... please turn up the volume of ur speaker so that u can hear the background music.. and pls stop my blog music first. haha.. if not later u tot it's jj's bu si zhi shen syncronising with the fireworks... well.. it doesn't go tgt at all lah.. so ya.. so what i say to find more surprises! =)



That's all for the night.. byebye..

To NDP preview 2006

It's sunday!! And i'm doing nothing at home.. hahaha.. =x

Fri.. as i've mentioned... went to watch ballet under the stars with er-jie at fort canning after my class ended a bit after 5pm... went down to PS after history of visual arts lesson to meet er-jie... and we had dinner there since it was raining outside... So after that we made our way to the concert site... And this year they actually had this wirstband thing that they stick around ur wrist when u enter the place.. with the tix.. haha.. so unlike last year lor.. sit thru the concert happily without fearing ppl will come and check or whatever.. haha.. And i realised i still liked classical ballet more.. than comtemporary...

Class was all right... except for the fact that history of visual arts is really draggy... and i lost focus somewhere.. =x but afterall it's not really VERY boring.. but just a little boring. haha.. ok lah.. i'll try to gain more interest in it.. hopefully thru my research on the topic i'm going to do for the assignment... heex..

Then sat... met up with yushi for lunch first be4 meeting via and ling at kallang to go watch ndp preview... and we were a bit late... due to the fact that we went to buy something.. haha.. and in the end they were all not eaten and yushi had to bring them home.. haha... It was already quite late when we reached and the stadium is already filled with ppl.. but we were quite lucky as to say we got to sit at the section beside the vip area... just out of the shelter area lah... but it allow us to get a rather clear view of what is going on lor.. esp. the fireworks lah.. Haha... good lor... thou we really had a hard time squeezing in... and later out of the place... originally wanted to go kallang airport to eat... but in the end changed our mind and went to kfc.. got air con mah.. haha.. eat eat... talk talk... then came home lor...

The whole thing is quite cool lah.. really dunno how long nv go liao... next time got chance must go again.. haha...!

Ya... Ytd was a day out.. with melody... Yea.. she's back! And we went shopping... mostly her camp stuff... cos basically i went out cos i've got nothing to do... and not that i really have anything to buy.. lol.. and i really din buy anything except for the concealer which i think i need... my dark rings..!! Actually we went to queenstown first... cheaper sports stuff mah... haha... And she chose her pres there too... ok lah.. that bag is nice lor... then after that went down to bugis... and continued walking ard after eating... we shopped till 5+.. and i decided to go down to spco.. Was about to call chaoyong when i saw Hanson at the entrance.. and he kindly brought me to the venue... Thanks! And i joined in the combine practice lor... practically was sight reading... but ytd prac de songs are considered the easier ones ba... so i could still catch... haha...

Then after that went to eat at 85 market with chaoyong, yulong, zhongming and jasmine.. eat and sit there till 11.30.. then came home lor... almost everyone slept liao lor... dotx...

Oh.. i just found out the truth about the tix to ballet under the stars... it's actually from a contest i joined using PAssion Card... lol... so not like what er-jie said.. din think i would be that lucky as well.. i can't even rmb i participated... come to think of it... ya.. that time i was thinking since er-jie wants to go so much.. i might as well give it a try... no harm mah... and i only knew where it came from when i received the call just now... and he said... u've won a pair of tix thru ur passion card... i was thinking.. Oh... ic..! HAha...

First day -- LaSalle-SIA

Due to popular demand... i shall talk about sch today...

Seriously.. after like 7 months without a school.. it sometimes feel weird... as there were quite a no. of ppl that came from foundation class last year.. they are quite familiar with the things and could help us along lah... but it's also quite difficult to join them becos they already knew each other for a year... anyway.. it's pleasant meeting new classmates... for the next 3 years i supposed.. and i'm more than happy to know that there are nanyang students here in my class too... and 2 of them somemore..! but of cos i didn't know them until today lah...

Ya... so first day of lessons... starting to get into the situation... first lesson was actually history of performing arts -- music... history... yes.. sounds boring to me... but today was just introductory to music.. as in different kind of music... and the indian song the lecturer joyce let us listen reminds me of the NUSCO concert totally... haha... But on the first touch.. it was actually quite interesting... but maybe when it goes into depth in the future weeks.. i dunno.. who knows?? HAha..

Then after lunch was critical writing class... it's a alternate week class from next week onwards.. so.. it means early dismissal on alternate tues!! haha... anyway i think i've learnt not to fall asleep during classes! hopefully it continues for the rest of my course... =x

Anyway after class... went to parkway.. wanted to go popular to get some things... using the voucher... but little did i know that the voucher is not valid YET... it means i'm early... so heng haven ask... and i realised the date lah.. haha.. so blur right.. so i came back empty-handed.... but finally bought the tix to the violin & erhu concert (SCO)... sis promised to go with me.. =))

I got a surprise in my email!! I received an email saying i won a pair of tickets to 'Ballet Under the Stars' for this fri!! :))) Wow... at first i was still wondering since when did i join any draws or whatever.. until i told er-jie about it and she enlightened me.. haha.. it's from the last year performance... er-jie put in 2 draw tickets... one hers and one mine... erm.. i was reluctant to do it at first cos we didn't buy any tix in last year... and she insisted lah.. so ok lor.. who knows.. i won! Haha.. Such a pleasant surprise.. so we are going to 'Ballet Under the Stars' once again!! Yeah..~ =))

Basically that's all... anyway melody is back and i'm going out with her tmr!! HAha... tmr no lessons mah... rmb?~! Yupx... think i got to do some readings first in the morning... the course kit is like.. thick!!! ok.. bye..~!

SYCO party

Oh... i slacked like the whole aftn... be4 and after lunch... i'm like super tired...

Ytd was a fun day... the whole day!! after having brunch with my 2 sisters at BK... i set off to SCH... to take the company coach to Bukit Batok home for the aged for our caring series performance... (I'm caring!!! heex) Ok... so we reached there around 1pm lor... and then started on the sound check and everything... then ard 1.30 the old folks started coming into the canteen cum hall... and we even helped to distribute the coffee and bread... until it's time to go upstage... and started with 2 combine songs.. erm... mu yang qu... laoshi gave the wrong upbeat... we all stunned... but thanks to william.. with a loud accompaniment that allows us to go into it... erm.. if u understand what i mean.. if not.. Nvm. haha. Then in between was a few solo songs.. by nicholas (guzheng), jon ngeow(ruan), qinglun & jon tan (dizi duet) and william (yangqin).. The performance ended with a bang by a rather fast speed chan mali chan.. =)

So we returned to SCH in the company coach and from there... about 10 of us proceeded to junru's house for the party for mr quek... we were there quite early lah.. so ngeow, jessly, yonghong, yuanyang, jiamin, jon tan and i went to eat at a nearby coffee shop with junru's younger brother while michelle, william, qinglun and junru himself went bishan to get some drinks and food... then after that back to the house and watched tv.. was like quite tired liao... and realised it's almost time... haha... but the first batch only reached around 7.30 lor.. and they were supposed to meet at 6.30 at amk.. haha.. so we were kinda forced to start preparing and all that liao... the happiest thing is to do the chocolate fondue thing... ngeow and i were one of the first to start the thing.. and it really took us a hard time digging out all the chocolates from its bag.. but it's cool to eat it when chocolate started flowing! =) 2nd was worse... my whole hand was covered with chocolate.. Haha.. quite gross.. but the chocolate flowing out is still as tempting as ever.. so i still ate.. Heex. =)

Anyway.. for the night... The attendance was surprisingly rather good... i mean... some unexpected faces appear too! erm... it's a good thing thou.. cos we always think that some ppl just doesn't mix with the rest... however.. some ppl still dun mix. haha.. sylvia was right.. i think it will be so much different to watch the SCO special alone... The ppl are just so high.. practically everyone left the bbq pit and find themselves a space in the living room to watch the sco special... thou they didn't really give syco credit... but some of the background music are played by us~!! Haha.. And mr quek arrived halfway thru the show.. and everyone cheered!! Then after the show ended... we had a surprise for mr quek.. includes the ice-cream cake... and the jigsaw puzzle using sy's grp photo.. and erhu section gave him a board with our photos and some msg.. cool.. But mr quek also gave us something in return.. a keychain for everyone! so nice of him.. =))

We had to end the bbq ard 11... and started packing up and ppl started to leave also... so did sylvia and i.. so we left with a few others... and the very kind tingkai send us home again in his father's lorry... this time drop us at bedok int.. good enough thou.. cos mrt stopped service by the time we left and reached amk... and bus24 too... last bus is 11pm.. so we hopped on to his lorry tgt with xiangle and it reached bedok fairly fast... so of cos we chatted thru the journey... was reminded that next year a lot of ppl wun be in sy... esp. in dizi section cos they are going into army... hmm.. kinda sad... i actually miss sy combine now... the interactions and all.. now sy ppl are all doing different things in name of sy... tainan ppl... hongkong camp ppl.. and caring series ppl ytd.. beautiful sunday still the whole sy.. but not everyone will be there... we just think that sy should plan for longer period in a year... more activities that includes the whole orchestra.. right??

Dunno how sy will be like next year.. with diff conductor.. diff ppl... hmm.. we'll see...

Anyway... tml.. is NOT the starting of sch.. cos like i've said... it's tues cos monday is empty... ok... quite good too.. still can do some preparation tml... and will be receiving something i bought online the other day.. quite cool.. first time.. =))

So today... like mentioned... slacked the whole day.. except for the morning.. i went jogging!! with er-jie and sylvia... i'm surprised by my own stamina since i haven run for quite some time... kinda reminded me of my morning runs back at nanyang... Oh man.. i really feel like going back to sch!! In uniform..! then no need to think of what to wear every morning... isn't it good?? why ppl dun like uniform? i like! Haha... ok... enough of crap... going off for now.. will be back soon.. =)

My music. my life

One day as i was having dinner be4 going for sy practice... mum asked me... what do i want to continue learning... hmm... i'm stunned... i didn't know how to ans her... i wanted to say 'both'... i think i did say that... but mum said 'no'... she asked me to choose one.. at the same time... she told me that maybe it's better for me to continue erhu... cos there are more routes to go in future...

At first i was kinda shocked at mum's ans to her own qns... last time she would have encouraged me to take up violin again... thinking that it's really the harbour of work... but i dunno when since she had changed her mind... but i really have to say that i wished i could do well on both... i mean after all they are just my hobbies right... but i have to say that i have a more direct route for erhu than for violin... i think for i violin i still need a long long way... really.. think my standard is far behind others... maybe even behind changsheng who just started learning last year... lol... too long nv play liao...

Even thou i'm quite sure i'm not going into professional musician... i'm happy to know that my family is always there to support me in the arts area... seriously... haven i mentioned that my dad even tried to get me to go study music in china or something?? sometimes it doesn't really have to come true... it's really good enough to know that they are supportive... =) Thanks daddy and mummy.. =)

I mean of cos i will consider... but i dunno... should i go back to the previous teachers for private lessons?? But he claimed me as his student still ytd!! I know that i can't afford to move another wrong step u know... moreover i'm confirm going to perform for his orchestra... and the reason why he still want us to go is becos he still regard us as his student... of cos i'm glad that our relationship has improved a lot this year as compared to last... but i seriously dun want to screw it up again... how???

That day i saw this phrase 'without music life would be a mistake'... Wow! i thought... i think it totally describes me... i think it's a cultivation from young... and i always believe that children who learn music has a better character compared to others... At least that's what i see and feel most... i've always make music part of my life... be it classical, traditional or pop... it's one of the most impt thing in my life... and that's why i want my future to be filled with it too... and that's why i'm doing arts management.. and of cos my ultimate goal is to manage a performing arts group... be it CO or SO or even... dance! And i believe... one day i'll be grateful to nus who rejected my application.. that's how i chanced upon my current option... right? if not i might not even know what i'm doing~?! And without music... where do i get my this big group of friends from~?!? i'm grateful to music.! =)

to 'the girl'...

I chanced upon this blog a few days ago... it belongs to a friend of mine... erm... shall not disclose the identity... cos i guess my friend didn't want any one of us know... and i happened to come across it when i was searching for something online... and i read it without asking for her permission... it was my fault on this side... but as i read... i realised that the biggest fault was not noticing what she's going thru...

If u sense that u are the one... i just want to tell u that u are not alone... u might think that we will be worried about u that's why u didn't say it out to anyone of us... but dun u think that it will worry us (or at least me) more this way?? Maybe u think that drinking is the best way out... but no matter how low the percentage is... dun indulge in it.. kae?? Anything... talk to ur friends... even if i'm not the one... i believe anyone could give u a very good listening ear without u having to drink... i'm not saying that she's not a good friend... she indeed a good one... cos she's willing to drink for u... and u sure dun want to harm ur friend's health as well as ur own one right??

I think by now the person should already know who is she lah... hopefully the next time we meet up... she's not trying to be cheerful but really cheerful... =))

Ok... back to my own life... erm... so today is the so-called orientation for LASALLE-SIA... and guess what... it's seriously quite boring for me... so after all the briefings in the morning... i made my way out of the sch gate ard 11.15am and ran after a bus 196 to parkway.. so i was shopping! HAha... ok... bought a bit of things lah... then eat something then came back at 2+... and slack ard lah... =x

Tml should be another boring day... not going anywhere i guess... anyone wants to date me out?? HAha... Actually there will be plenty of chances still... thou sch is supposed to start next mon... but no lessons leh.. so tues then start... then wed break again... wow... can somebody bring me out~?! Lol...

Oh... did i mention that i watched Pirates of Carribean: Dead man's chest on tues with sylvia and tzehorng?? ERmm... it's a nice show... quite funny also... and lame sometimes... the ending... is no ending lah.. lol... so waiting for the next part to come out lor... and i'm looking for the first too... heex..

Okok.. go le.. bye...

online shopping

Wow!! This is my 200th entry!! Let me hit it with a bang! Haha... ok.. lame.. actually i'm back in such a short time wor... HAha..

Just wanted to share my views... one of the days i actually viewed on a site that hopped and were selling some accessories and clothes and blah blah blah online... Then i was doing the friendship band... and i tot i could do the same too!! ERm... still thinking of other things that i could do.. or maybe come tgt with my friends to have something to sell... i mean that's what some of my friends were thinking of... right??

But it's really quite cool to surf online to find things that u like... dun even need to step out of the house to shop... so am looking forward to be able to find more online shopping sites... i mean... those in sg... And so i could get more accessories... for good prices?? Heex.. =)

There's actually a lot of thoughts that i wanted to talk about... but got to go for now..

My weekend!

Ahem... i'm here!! Eh... wanted to update earlier... but eh... too tired... imagine ytd i came back... trying to update ard 9pm... but i went next door (my parents' room) and watch tv for a while and i just fell asleep on their bed.... and eh... i went to sleep thereafter until this morning... erm... 10 plus? Haha.. I'm such a pig i know... but there's just too many things going lately...

Starting from erm... friday.... Actually morning i was nua-ing at home as usual... then i decided after lunch that i should be doing something... so i prepare and was on my way out.. only to receive a msg asking me to help him buy a gift... dotx... and since i'm going out... i agreed... see.. i'm such a nice friend.. haha.. So i walked around for about 2+ hours.. to look for 2 presents... In the end i got both and went home happily.. =) And i tot it wasn't enough... so i made a friendship band at the very last min be4 i went to sleep... ya lor...

So sat... was still able to wake up at 7am even thou slept at 2+am... actually i stayed to listen to the last day of Peifen's Ni Ke Si Cheng Bao on 93.3fm... Ya... anyway.. wake up then prepare and went to airport to send von off... I'm glad that she likes the gift... at least it's one that i've put in extra effort... =) And so... off von went to perth... wonder how is she doing now... hmm.. hope everything is all right... =)

Came home after some chatting with the girls... and i had a nap after lunch.. haha... till like 4pm... then started to prepare for the bbq... had my mum do the pork chop... and i helped ok!! HAha... eh.. that was be4 i napped lah... so i went to meet via and then jan and siyih... to get the rest of the food... ok lah... the food didn't come up to be very ex... hope everyone there enjoyed... erm.. i did lah... cos i didn't really do anything except to sit down to talk and play and eat... Haha.. ok lah.. thanks to those who were busy cooking (bbq-ing)... yushi, kosing, via... char who was making the crabstick cheese... and?? erm.. i didn't really notice.. =x So after that didn't really feel like going home yet... siyih and kosing left already... and the rest of us went up to horng's house... after a while... jan and horng's 3 sr friends namely brandon, xinyi and rebecca also left... so left yushi, via, char, bern, jon and me... we were entertaining ourselves... watching tv... old show.. lol... then took over via for mahjong while she dozed on the sofa... haha... after that sian liao... started daidee... and we finally decided to leave at 3am... =x Came home... bathe and went to sleep... Heex. Had a good day... dunno when will be the next...

Then sun... woke up ard 9.. or even later... then slowly get myself up to bathe and everything... and set myself off to cc for the reception... and man... after lunch it was games... and i had to join in too.... well... fine then... just play with them... it was quite dumb anyway.. haha... but it's quite funny how we did it lah.... and we nearly lost the whole thing... luckily there's one group behind us... =x then the 2nd part was role playing... dotx... and the topics were like... ha ha ha... and i must say that most are entertaining... it's good to be the judge.. lol... And i went home after that... even thou i would like very much to have dinner with them.. i've already agreed to come home for dinner... and i dunno when will be the next time i'll be there... probably not in the near future.. haha.. so i came home like 7+ close to 8... and i fell asleep at 9+?? Haha... seriously tired lah... bleahx...

Anyway sch is really starting.. maybe not on the 24th but 25th.. since i do not have any lessons on mondays... wow... how cool... When i received my time table on sat... i got a shock too... in total i only have 6 classes slots per WEEK... each 2-2.5h... and 2 on each school day... so means to say i only have 3 days that i need to attend school lah! Haha.. =x But i tot the time table is kinda weird too... like 10am-3.30pm on tues... 3pm-9pm on thurs... and 10am-4pm on fri... so the rest of the time i'm free lah... or maybe there will be other prog... who knows... So... one more week to go!! =)

Later in the evening will be going for sy prac again... performance is the coming sat... i sure have a lot of prog going on.. haha... okok.. that's all!! =)

Nua-ing at home..

Here i am... doing nothing on a warm thurs afternoon... if the weather has been better... more windy with less sun... i could be out there... jogging or swimming... hmm... how nice to be in the water... thou i dun swim extremely well... it's good to train up my coordination of actions and breathing in the water... and it's really relaxing... cool... if i dun get to go later.. i would probably go tml morning... be4 the sun is high up.. =)

Tues i met up with the group... finally the whole group met up tgt.. for once! Haha... cos i realised i can't any photo with 6 of us inside... and i so wanted to do something with that... so ya lor.. waiting for chek to send it to me.. =) Oh ya... so we went to Kbox (for me again.. haha.) and at MS (again)... and coincidently... at room K13 Again!!! Haha... the same big room that we got on sunday for 5 of us... Lol... And dear von was damn late for some personal matter... so obviously carried on without her lah... =x the 2 (han and kim) left early while we stayed till ard 6.30pm.. then chek went to meet her Friend.. Lol.. while yuhui, von and i decided to go for pepper lunch at duoby gauht... after that came home... tired! Haha... Hmm.. that's probably the last time we are meeting up in 6s... at least in the future few months to come...

Ytd... woke up quite late.. and still tired... dun even feel like getting out of bed... not mine.. not my parents'... haha... and dun feel like getting out of home too... it's so so so warm outside!!! the sun is shining like nobody's business lah... but eventually i got myself out so as not to miss the photo taking session... dotx... and i reached LASALLE-SIA at about 4.30pm when the session ends at 5pm. and it's the last day already.. Lol.. but there are ppl who were like me also lor... So ya... took the photo and they immediately print onto a lasalle card for purpose of identification for me as a lasalle student.. quite cool.. but the photo suck anyway... my photos on cards nv looked nice... so what's the big deal.. so i just get it and left the college... found another way out from the college... to think i always walk that big round.. Haha..

Then i cleverly found bus 12 and took it down to bugis... only to realise that there's no that shop there at all...~ cos it's quite late already.. i was quite worried... the only solution is go down to suntec immediately to get the thing... so i walked there from bugis... and called via to meet me there instead... so i finally got it.. and only to realise the word that i misread was 'bishan' and not 'bugis'... Dotx!!! so blur me lah... then via came le.. went for a quick dinner... and made our way to SCH... they started already... it's a bad thing to miss the front... cos for the first 10min maybe... i dunno a thing the speaker is talking about... but the talk was good... at least i find it beneficial.. esp. the part where mr. yu (the speaker) demostrate the difference btwn modern co music and the tradition cantonese music... sound so different... and so nice! Hmm... maybe it's time to learn music into it's deeper form... i dunno.. can't make up my mind whether to return or somewhere else.. =x erm... nvm.. put this aside first...

So basically that's all... today whole day at home lor... quite sian thou... tml too... haha... maybe i'll get to play a lot on sat and sun... so dun care lah... can sleep then sleep lor... dunno how school and lessons will be like... maybe much like in jc.. as in the procedures... but what about the subjects?? still a bit worried about getting into the new environment thou... dunno how long i'll need to adapt... and be on my own.. haha... for sec sch was a year... and for jc... maybe a bit shorter... hopefully it will be even shorter in LASALLE. =)

Ok... going off for now... byebye..

Long update..

Realised that i haven updated for quite a few days... Haha... So beware of the long entry ahead... since so many things happened too.. Heex..

Firstly... the concert ba.. it's over le... erm.. i wun say it's a big thing... at least not for me... but maybe for the juniors... i could see that they are quite nervous about the whole thing.. frantic... like dunno what to do... for me... maybe it seems like just another practice on the stage... i wun say i played flawlessly... in fact i played quite a lot wrongly... due to the lack of practise.. Haha.. =x but well... what is done cannot be undone right... And they make it like so 'school'... tying up hair with only black rubber bands and even provide ribbons... oh man... doing that for someone at my age?? spare me man... so obviously i didn't obey lah... and let my hair down... heex. Anyway... i think it was even more messy after the concert... but i just returned the costume.. and left with the others after a short chat with choonhong and tony... So the 4 who came (dj, via, horng and maine), wilson, bernard, jon lau and me erm.. went to party world after that... was quite tired halfway thru already... plus wasn't really in good form for singing that day due to the still-a-bit-swollen-and-pain tooth extracted... so i was quite sian-ed... not say i didn't enjoy lah... the guys were rather entertaining.. (haha.) but was just too tired after that long day... i went cc at 9 for goodness sake and didn't really eat anything for the day... plus i was quite worried that my mum will really wait for me to come back and scold me or even lock the door with the latch and dun let me come in.. haha.. imaginative.. so ya.. returned home around 2am and went to sleep soon after... luckily both my parents are already sleeping.

Sun... after getting a small scolding from mum for returning late the previous night (the concert night)... i still went out... actually it's a long time since i got a scolding for returning home late.. maybe it was really too late that day.. =x wops.. i guess i tested my mum's patience too far.. =x and i'm being said for like the next 2 days for returning at 2am.. dotx... Anyway.. i still went out on sunday... erm.. to kbox? Haha.. ya.. at marina sq with jan, qin, yih and ling... i'm proud to say that i'm the earliest and i wasn't late!! Haha. it's really true that only when all the others are late.. i will be early.. haha. we had quite a great time there despite some ppl put our aeroplane.. Haha. Then had dinner at kenny rogers at MS as well.. as i already reserved a table... we were given one right at the end where other ppl can't see us... as well as via, yushi and horng who came later... Haha. so nice of them.. but the table is super big lah... and rather good dinner as well.. 6 of us shared a family meal... cool! obviously i'm their 'waitress' again.. cutting up the whole chicken into parts... dotx... one thing is i will nv take waitress as my career in future.. haha.. then took bus home with yushi and via after buying some things at suntec... and soon after i was knocked out ard 11.30pm on my bed till this morning.. erm... 10am? Haha.

I was waken up by my hp actually.. mum called me lah... i was seriously in deep sleep cos she said she the house and no one picked up... it's obvious cos i was the only one at home and i'm still sleeping. HAha. so anyway she told me to wake up and prepare myself to go out but i continued sleeping for a while before doing what she told me.. haha.. so resulted in a bit late for lunch with her, dua-gim and 2 visitors from jakata... dined at jack's place at bugis... then after that... omg.. i think i can nv be a tourguide... since mum had to come back and teach knitting.. she gave me the task of bringing them to take mrt blah blah blah... so i did... and guess where i took them to? Jurong point... thinking that they could do some shopping there too... but eventually nobody bought anything... too bad i can't really communicate with the daughter.. she like study malayu in jakata.. so i was kinda bored too... esp during the train time.. on the return journey i almost fell asleep... if i were on my own... i would have slept by then.. but with them.. i'd better stay awake.. so i brought them back to bugis... and brought them to si ma lu... where they went to bai bai... and they said they could return to er-jiu's house on their own.. so i made my way back to bugis alone...

Then was walking around alone for a while before i decided to call emily for a drink.. Heex. and she did!! After her lunch.. for ur info.. it's ard 3+pm that time... so i walked around looking for a pres be4 she came down... and i waited at coffee bean for her... almost fell asleep again.. haha.. after she came... chatted over a drink and walked over to bras basah (again..) to popular... she couldn't find the thing she wanted... so we left after buying some small stuff and walked back to bugis again... from there i took bus down to SCH for sy prac.

Was still quite early when i reached... and saw laoshi having dinner at killiney... so i joined him with a glass of ice-milo... and we chatted a bit... be4 we started practising for the caring series... the songs are manageable lah.. erm.. they're supposed to be cos we're playing for the aged... so ya... went thru the songs... ok lah.. small performance mah... 13 of us only.. and 1 didn't come today.. luckily the ppl that are going are quite ok... as in most are ppl i'm familiar with... 2 jonathans... michelle.. junru... yonghong... jessly.. qinglun.. yuanyang.. william.. so guess it will be not bad ba..

So after prac took train home with jon tan, qinglun, junru and jessly where the last 2 alighted at raffles... and the 3 of us chatted on the way... and again i'm being posted with the same qns... 'why u want to study arts management' and 'what can u do in future'... that's the exact qns that laoshi asked when i sat with him be4 prac too... i'm puzzled... why everyone asks the same qns?? sometimes the more ppl ask... the more i find myself lost... but i still think that it's a rather good choice... so whatever! I'm starting school!! Haha.

Ok.. that's all.. i'm tired already... Nitex! And i'll be back. Lol

One Wisdom tooth gone.. Publicise for concert!

Been home for 2 days since the dental appointment ytd... now my right cheek is like swollen and i can't open my mouth too big.. dotx... i dunno why the dentist didn't take out the top tooth too.. but since i already can't open my mouth when he finished... i can't ask too.. haha. So it wasn't really very very pain since i only took out one from the bottom.. still need to go back next week to take out the stitching thou...

So the day was spent watching tv... sleeping and what else? hmm.. practically nothing else.. Haha. And i was watching these 2 shows... 青春的节奏 and 我的第一次. The first one is obviously about youth day... reminds me of the sec sch days when i saw co.. syf.. and syf opening. the flashcard display we did back in sec 1... the 2 syfs we went for... it reminds me even more when i rmb what i chatted with yulong on sunday.. and with yoongking and wilson the previous sundays... the images are so fresh in my mind... i have really gone thru a lot of things during those days... happiness, sadness, anger.. everything! And co.. really made me grow a lot... maybe that's when i learnt to see ppl properly..

Then the 2nd show.. it's damn cute lah... this episode actually featured 3 children's first day of sch... 2 were p1 and the other going to dou dou class.. of cos i'm going to say that it let me think of my first day of sch too! Haha... can't rmb what is it like in kinderland... but in RSS.. i rmb nobody accompanied me to sch on first day... i just took the sch bus... and of cos i didn't cry... and i swear i was the one who enjoyed school very much..~ and i bet i was the one who laughed at zhangyan who cried on his first day in sch (which is already the 3rd day of sch) but later made friends with him... and later on became his mei... it was really the good old days.. who rmbs all the results and lessons?? rmb the friends and fun!! haha.. and of cos.. speak about the co back then... it was nothing good really... no quantity.. no quality.. no good instruments... it's just like playing playing lor.. but of cos thanks for building up my passion for co.. so how can kids not like schooling?? it's the best kind of life... long hours?! wait till they work... haha.

Ok... i'm going to continue to rot at home... perhaps till fri... oh.. it means 3 days at home! Haha. but it's warm and humid... a bit sian thou... not much of tv prog in the aftn... and i just had to prac erhu... which i'm supposed to.. =x Ok... shall not say so much.. ERm... once again!!! Had to publicise the Changkat CC concert... 8 July 2006 (this sun).. 7pm @ SCH.. Pls... try to support... thou it might not be the best or even a good show.. but it's still the works of the hardworking students... Esp. Jonathan... And i'm doing this for him lah... the poor boy can't even concentrate on his school work.. So why not make this concert a success by bringing more ppl to watch?? Pls pretty?? Contact me soon!

Fun!!

I'm back... from fun.. haha... Let's start from sat...

I went to sentosa!! With NUSCO ppl... and they are... Eric & his gf (yingyi), yuhui, nianzhong, huiyan, yanjun and kevin! Hmm... must say that it was really a fun day... it was kinda frisbee the whole day but it was fun.. first i met them at harbour front mrt then we proceeded for some breakfast then off we went to sentosa... went to siloso beach first.. and we had frisbee on the sand... oh man.. the sand was like burning lah... had to either stand in shade or run around or bury the feet in the sand... haha.. then we proceeded to palawan beach later... to the lagoon... hmm... obviously cleaner water cos we wanted to go into water lah.. wanted to play the the ball... but it was so light... after only a few throws... it floated away and as a few were trying to save the ball... it float even further... dotx... so they gave up when it really went too far... (moral of the story: next time use heavier ball.. haha.) And we started with our water frisbee.. it was more fun than the land one.. and we all ended up quite wet... dotx...

Then bathe after that lah... and i think the guys waited for a long time.. haha.. so bye to sentosa around 6... we had dinner at harbour front's foodcourt... and a bit of gossip be4 everyone headed home then... took 30 back... got seats mah... and took with yanjun also.. she the current pres of nusco lah... after she alighted at old airport rd... i practically slept like a log even thou the aircon was very cold... =x

Then sun... went cc lah.. obviously... it was an enjoyable day also lah... thou the prac dragged for quite long... cos we went thru all the songs be4 lunch... and after lunch when we return.. it was all playing... own practising.. blah blah blah... so was playing with all sorts of songs lah... with lau when the juniors were like pointing the song names.. dotx.. then was chatting with yulong... wah.. long time no see... we were talking a lot about the past.. (again) Lol... but we went all the way back to the times in RSS. Lol. So after all these... left the place around 6!!! then dined at CS foodcourt.. with M.A.D.. jon... jindong, james.. dunno where zhongming disappeared to... after that went to look for him... and we chilled out at mac after that... it was about 10 when we decided to return home. Had a nice day out... with J*****?? (clue: ex-bdsian) =x

And today... proud of myself to actually get myself up in the morning to jog.. lol...

Bye to Samsonite.. Hi to Slacking days..

Okay!! I'm here to announce that i'm officially jobless on 1 July 2006!!! Eh.. do i sound happy? I tot jobless is a sad thing.. but whatever it is... i'm here... not worrying about waking up late for work anymore... (which i did today... *yawnx*) and not able to catch the bus to reach in time... =)

More imptly... i've left all my responsibilities!!! Some impt issues lately lah... very scared to ans the phone blah blah blah... then after that they ask for my name and blah blah blah... just again today there's another case.. but since it's my last day.. i dun care also lah.. just say whatever i think is correct.. in fact.. what i said was correct.. and in fact the person didn't call back anymore despite saying that she will get back to me... hmm... she said she waited for the call for so long... and yet now she didn't call back as promised... so we weren't in any wrong right..~!? Ok... dun bother.. i dunno what i'm saying also. =x renjie was also saying since last day liao.. send me to 'die'.. so bad right...

Ok.. let me talk about my last day.. actually it's quite a good day... I sold a black label biggest luggage~!! Haha.. so proud of myself.. somemore the process was damn funny... cos at first i told the cust the bag was $700+ according to my memory... then after that i went to check on the com.. and i saw $800+... oh no.. i quickly told the cust.. then he was like so shocked and asked me why should he buy the bag.. then i erm.. actually dunno what to say but just state and tried my best to show how good it is lah.. And luckily the cust wants the bag. i was damn happy until i realise that the bag was actually the price i first told him... i keyed in the wrong no. be4 lah.. lol... so stupid right... so trust myself rather than the com. Haha... But luckily he didn't ask anything when i told him it's $770 lah.. Heng.. and i made a deal!! =)

Then the next best part was when a no. of cabin crews came into the shop... obviously they are looking for THAT bag lah.. the price is so low for them lor... somemore they are new crews... sure buy that one... actually i was worried that there will will not enough... but luckily.. just nice... and it was really a mess at that time man... in the end... they took 6 bags.. and some others who couldn't get the colour they wanted ordered from shaw.. wow.. good for shaw. Haha.

Hmm... though it feels good knowing that i will be nua-ing enjoying at home for the next 3-4 weeks... but guess i will still rmb some of the things going on at work...
01. The frequent da-bao-ing trips for the guys... (practically i'm the only girl most of the time)
02. the food there! Esp. Carrefour there.. cos they are cheaper than foodcourt! haha.
03. the times where cust. thank me for my help...
04. the days that i get the chance to go to the bank with a lot of cash... (and take a walk at ms after that?)
05. the days i walk around with at least a luggage in hand... walk all the way to middle road to get it/them repaired... and come back with something else repaired...
06. the days small children play with our kids collection... they are so cute... but dunno why now dun have the series at our place le..
07. the days that i got a shock when eric came in to scare me (unintentionally) when i was eating..
08. the times that i had to climb up to 'level3' to get the stock... i got vertigo for goodness sake..
09. the times that i get knocked by the falling Hard-case bags!
10. the jokes that ppl there crack...
11. the days i get to laugh when renjie was scolded by eric... haha.
12. my pay-days... mike was always so excited to bank in the money. so funny.
13. and a lot more that are beyond words... for these 4 months...

Just thanks for giving me this chance to learn and handle a lot of matters.. and thank the ppl for looking after me.. and teaching me this and that... at least i know how to break a lock code now.. so i can open the lock if anyone's bag is in trouble. right? and cashier too... i've been hogging on to the cashier today..! side track a bit... that day this tourist gave me a $1000 bill when he's paying for a $100+ bag.. dotx.. was damn scared i count wrong change lor... haha.. And of cos know all these great ppl.. thou some are not fantastic ppl. but i had fun.. right!? Esp. Eric... he's normally quiet... but he could be erm... cool and fierce and... humorous too...

Wow.. long enough... I'm going to sentosa tml!! erm.. 1 July.. with the nusco ppl... erm.. enjoy myself! =)
