Weekends whole day out!

Been a rather busy but enjoyable weekend... And ironically, i thought work was much more enjoyable. haha!

It was the usual prac on sat... this week with charmaine instead... we really like taking turns huh... Prac wasn't really bad... but not the best too... I felt that we are not as prepared as we were for the concert 2 years ago... and i can't really figure out what's the problem.. it could be that they started planning much later this time... and i rmb we really had many long saturdays for the last concert... whereas this time practice time is really precious to the whole orchestra. But... i will do my best de lah... somemore this time got 2 gaohu less! like dotx...

Then took laoshi's car down to SCH. Finally i'm not late for the concert... but anyway.. the concert wasn't really up to what i expected.. or rather.. we expected... didn't really understand the wayang song... For 红楼梦... i was only attracted to the first and last song they played... -.- but i really like zhao laoshi's playing... Like no matter under what condition he can always produce the finest sound from his erhu... at least that's what i hear till now... But butterfly lover wasn't as great as i thought it would be... sians... first part already keep speeding... then fast part also speed... Plus i was already super tired... i didn't really have the energy to listen to everything.. haha! Anyway i didn't really like her violin sound... it's VERY soft even thou i'm sitting like super in front.. the sound is only bright when she plays the high notes... at first position... all very soft and kinda muffled. She played encore also! And it's like super obvious the soloist and the orchestra wasn't tgt. DOTX. But still went for the autograph after that.. but could see that most people can't be bothered. -.-

Sunday was work lor... stayed a bit later to finish up some work... then went over to vivo to find yushi... thinking that she can go off at 10pm.. then we can go eat.. in the end.. waited for them to finish packing up everything! And by the time we reached 85 market... it was almost 1am!!! And i was hungry like dunno what already. haha. But the process was quite fun.

Back to nyjcco

Been long since i last went back to nyjcco... Can't rmb when was the last time i think... haha! Was terribly late to meet ken for lunch... supposed to meet at 12.15 at first... after that i think should be late so i said 12.30... in the end... i reached at 12.50! LOL! must be the lasalle and syco influence.. haha! But ken said he didn't reach long too... so what is it? And jon came even later. haha! just that he nv eat.

Then went to school... ERm... they also haven't start lor.. dotx. Actually got quite a no. of strings lah... filled up the side of the room... or maybe it's just becos the room is quite small? haha! Anyway... Song wasn't really difficult as the scores look like... for me lah... =x at least after a few tries can get it already... and mostly like got other instrus also... so not that scary also lor... unlike some other songs from elsewhere... haha! Hmm... hopefully next time got more alumnis going back! :)))

Dinner with jon, casper, yilin and estelli... Erm... rather funny moments and really some inside jokes... next time we go for prac should be next wed ba... after all this sat they cancelled prac and luckily! cos have to go mco anyway... Woah... whole day again... but looking forward to the concert at night!! :))) Oops... i digressed... =x Had mac... talked and laughed till almost 9 then left. took bus back with estelli... Finally someone living in the east. haha! Supposed to prac for audition for tmr... but! ya. HEE.

Ok... back track... Ytd met up with the dearest von... Like finally after she came back for so long... haha! Been busy mah... and finally got the chance to meet up with her... Did some shopping and surprisingly i really did some spending too... Cos usually i'm the window shopper and she's the one buying... but anyway it's becos i already have something in mind to buy.. haha. Walked ard for a while and went to Gelare for some wafer... er... she had the cake set and eventually she didn't finish the cheese cake cos first one was not cold... she requested for a change... and apparently the 2nd one was hard like dunno what. lol. and she blamed me for it. -.-
Whatever! I'm satisfied with my wafer and ice-cream. haha!!! =P

Will be meeting them soon again.. YEAH! Dec is really full of activities... now am i happy that i didn't have to leave for hk? I think kind of. Hee...

Interested parties pls let me know.. we buy tix tgt ok?! :)))

I can't believe everything is coming all-so-together... And what about next year's SCO concerts?? Must plan liao... =x

I covered everything

I know this is a terrible timing but i need to blog to tell everyone that i'm still a live and my exams have ended~!!! Yay-nessss!! HAHA!! But bad news is... i'm working tmr. -.- Luckily is afternoon shift. hee!

Exam haven't been all smooth... for the both papers i took... i didn't finish all the qns. Sianx... Hopefully can pass... esp. today's paper. If not jialat jialat.. And i think i've already done the best i can. AHH!!! But whatever... my holidays are here. But i guess most of it will be spent working ba... since they are super short-handed now.. haix. want to slack at home and return to my couch potato lifestyle also cannot. =(

But still i wish to meet my friends more often too... 有空到家里来玩 Wii ok?~ HEE.

And anyway.. maybe i haven't say this but sad to say... my application to hk's attachment didn't get thru... So it means i'm not going to hk in dec anymore.. But the good thing is... I will be in Singapore! Doing what i like! :))) And know that i will not miss anything out of my life. Yeah!

Been in a super slack mood lately... Probably because dad and mum weren't ard... YA! They went for holiday AGAIN!! Can someone tell me how many times is it already for this year? -.- They cool lah... But fine.. they went for a purpose this time. Well... dad went for performance.. and mum tagged along. lol. The only difference at home this time was... someone is sharing dad and mum's bed with me. Didn't manage to claim my territory this time. haix... Later she say i selfish again. HAHA. Which i admit in this area. but it didn't work this time huh. tsk. And i think this is one time i did the most housework! Even thou i'm supposed to be studying for my exam most of the time. LOL!

But good thing! They are coming back on thurs! YEAH. Shouldn't have agreed to work tmr.. then can slack at home. But well... already agreed... cannot like that last min dun go right... anyway more income for the holiday season is a good thing. Been spending a bit over the weekend and online! WAH. Like i have abundance of money like that. tsk. Have to control liao... yet i feel like getting other things lor. jia lat. =x

Wondering if i should send out christmas cards this year.. Saw some past year cards while looking for something else... And i realised... i really need no present and i'm seriously contented with cards more that presents. Because cards can be kept for really long... When i read cards from my beloveds... i really saw how our friendship was maintain and growing all these years. Reminds me of all the times we had in school. even thou after we left and everyone headed different ways... how we still treasure each other. I LOVE TO KEEP CARDS. Dun ever think i will throw them away. Serious. :)))

Well.. it's now time to sleep le lah~ If not tmr really sian-ed at work liao. =x

5 more days!

One presentation and one paper down! :)

A report and one more paper to go. Yeah... And that's like 5 more days to go.. HEE.

Anyway, dad and mum are away in China again for 8days from ytd (thurs) morning... Wooohhh.... though it can be heaven... but still have to study first.. and after that.. also working.. so no difference lah.. haix.

Yup. though quite relieved that one paper is gone.. but also dunno how i fare lor... didn't finish the paper... one part of a qns didn't have time to do... and i think i know how to do one leh! too bad lor... hopefully the rest ok... cos most i know how to do de. :)

Ok... back to my report.. meeting my supervisor tmr... like finally. haha! bye!

lousy translation

I wanted to translate 新加坡华乐发展史略... and the translation from google came out to be.. "Singapore and China Development Brief History of Music". Lol. The book has got nothing to do with China. The 华 and 乐 got translated separately.. but why 华 is not chinese leh? TSK.

Now u know where all the weird english signs come from... haha. Joel i'm sure u used the same translator the other time.. right?! HAHA!

Short ranting

Too many things to do... too little time to complete...
Too many thoughts... too little words can describe...
Too many ideas... too little resources to support...

HOW TO DO MY THESIS LIKE THAT?!

AHH.... supposed to send my supervisor some draft by WED.. i mean the wed that have passed.. but till now... i dun think i'm even half way there... WHY? Cos i'm super unorganised now... OK.. i will sort it out! so unmotivated. =x Even thou presentation is MON! Yes.. coming mon. faints.

Look forward to sunday thou. haha!

Youtube is banned?!

Can anyone tell me why like that???? Ok.. now even i open that picture.. the same thing will also happen... is there like some virus??? Or anyone experience the same thing??

王力宏 Music-Man!

YEAH! 力宏 is cool!!! :))) His guitar is cool too!!!

The whistle we were given at the door... Good cos sometimes dun need to shout until so cham. haha! But then ear also quite pain. lol!

The 'deflatable' 加油棒... but apparently we couldn't deflat it at the end of the concert so we just brought it home inflated. -.- And one of er-jie's actually lau hong until damn jialat.. one of mine a bit also... so we were left with one pair.

My light stick... supposed to be green colour... but i think not very obvious here.

He playing violin... VERY 帅!!! HAha.

The opening.... 'Fly' down from above...

Before the concert started.. :)

The concert was awesome thou he didn't sing more numbers from 改变自己... Nonetheless.. the atmosphere was excellent... with the help of those equipments we had... we had a good time... HEE. HIGH wor...

Talking abt 改变自己... he actually 'make' the 4 王力宏s appear 'together' on stage.. haha! Quite creative although the connection in the video is not very flawless. haha! It's the effort lah... Yanzi and Kit Chan were there to watch too.. the interview with them while he was changing was quite entertaining too.. haha!

Little did we know he will disappear from the stage and appear at the other corner of the stadium.. Seriously he said the correct thing: '没想到这里的位子是最好的吧。' YA LAH! Why not our side??? -.- But NVM! At least we were there! HA. :)))

Randomness in life

(ok.. actually i think cannot really see.. haha)

Very long nv put my contacts according to status already.. and shocked to see 83 online when i first switched... lol! Actually it was 84.. dunno why print screen come out 83.. so fast change. haha! Last time usually is 50+... That's one of the reasons why i decided to sort them according to grps... Hee.

Actually nothing much today... Went out to jog again this morning.. HAHA! Got discipline hor? And did step-ups and leg lifting also.. quite tiring. Resulted in my afternoon nap.. hahaha! I actually slept on my studyroom floor for almost an hour before plunging into my sis' bed for another hour. totally ignoring my phone's alarm. HA!

Anyway... i think i accidentally clicked on youtube's page add... but then to my horror... a pop-up error came to my screen with some evil laugh and whatever to say that 'Youtube is BANNED'. Then i dunno what happened but i just close it and after that my browser also closed... Then i curious and went to try again... This time the pop-up wouldn't go away!! Have to like ctrl alt del to end it... Err... i also dunno what happened...

Other things.. dun feel like saying... A lot of things lah!

A day fully utilised.

I super look forward to next sat!!! 王力宏's concert!!! YEAH! Omg. I'm so high and excited just to think abt it.. :))) Er-jie too.. i think we got rather good seats ba... like 2nd cat. facing the stage first row.. lol. CAMERA! And my sis ask if want to do board. like -.- I can't be bothered with her. hahah!

Anyway... Kbox-ed today with han, yuhui and jiale. Kim supposed to come too but last last last min something cropped up. Hope it's settled already. Fun in some way but got 2 ladies nv really sing lor... Too bad hor.. still dun have most new songs yet.. not that i really know how to sing them lah. =x Haven't upload the pictures yet.. cos only reached home ard 12am.. and was doing project stuff..

Went to Xiaoting jie's house after the kbox session... wah! Took damn long to get there although the no. of bus stops like not a lot. i think a bit jam ba... i didn't really notice cos i was rather tired on the bus. haha. Had dinner there... she made roasted meat herself. Very nice! not like so salty like outside ones. And she baked cake too... Had it later in the night... so we just watch tv and chatted until she drove er-jie and i back.. :)

Then this morning... I'm SO so so proud of myself. I woke up at 6.30am to go for run... despite sleeping at ard 3am... And seriously it was much better than wed.. But back dunno still a bit pain cos of the sit-ups i did on wed... so i couldn't really do more today. Did some step-ups thou... felt so satisfied. I'm so gonna do that more more more often. I think it's time to train up stamina and my health again. Should get more fresh air... if not always nose-blocking. sianx.

Yea. Tired liao.. tmr still got to work. NITEX! :)

JJ's new album... I LOVE. Ok.. not all the songs i guess... but some really nice. HEE. Jay's and S.H.E's one haven't really listen to all properly. JJ more important mah... hahaha.

Bless you and get well soon

Ytd was the first time i went to visit my granduncle after his accident.. I was shocked cos i couldn't recognise him anymore. He's already very skinny.. but he is probably only two-third of what he was now... becos he can't eat and tube feeding is the only way... It's really sad to see him in this state. Someone who watched me grow.. someone who dotes on me quite a lot. What i heard was that he fell from the site during work.. and his head was seriously injured. And he actually needed to be operated on his head...

After his first operation... he got conscious.. get agitated and started pulling out the tubes which were inserted to his hands... So i think all the movements resulted in a second operation. That was when my parents came back only at 3am. He was still very agitated... so they have no choice but to tie his hands to the side bar of the bed to prevent him from removing the tubes again... And also had to make him sleep most of the time.

When we were there ytd, we were not even sure if he was awake.. and he probably can't recognise us and unable to respond to us also. Nobody else came, so we only stayed for a while.. Tried to call him... but he didn't response to our voices. He probably knows that someone is there but just couldn't talk nor look at us.

And the sad thing is.. his eldest daughter a.k.a my aunt is getting married this dec.. at this present moment... we dun even know if he can recover by then.. But i sincerely hope he will. Pls bless my granduncle to pull through all these and get well soon.

This weekend

Went mco ytd... really like one month go once.. actually i dun think it's really enough... but very tiring leh.. haha!

One thing i'm so proud of myself ytd... I wasn't late in the morning!!! And in fact i should be considered the earliest cos i was ahead of them on the route... HEE. Then i didn't sleep on the bus trip despite the 4h sleep the night be4.. due to gaming till late with sis and my cousin. like she bu de to go and sleep. haha! Anyways... in the end we end early also lor... after quite a while then got ppl come after we got to the room..

THEN. i got to go back to gaohu again... dotx.. after almost half a year not touching it... But surprisingly... i was able to get some of the things right.. haha! Or maybe becos the songs are easier for gaohu... whichever way... i think that's the reason why i was being asked to play gaohu. hee. BUT ahh.. have to re-practise again! (not like i'm fully prepared for erhu lah)

And today.. went to woodlands agin! for my mum's graduation from senior citizen school. Cool but a bit messy lah... like everyone walking here and there lor... my dad says like kindergarten graduation like that.. uncontrollable. hahah. But could see everyone is really like super excited lah... And proud too.. I mean.. i would be proud too.. Haha. Congrats mummy!!

Then went to MOF at bugis for lunch.. took quite long to get there cos we were like touring in circles in woodlands. dotx. not a familiar place after all... then after that come home le... And napped. Hee!

Another quick update

Joel i'm so going to prove u wrong.. hahaha!!!

At my er-jiu's house now... sleptover last night with cousin... :) Actually it's really good environment here to study and yada yada... before i found out there's internet connection available. LOL! Sheessshhh.... But the surrounding is really quiet thou... not much distractions... just a bit warm.. (not like my house is equiped with air-con). haha!

Anyway... Will be returning home later.. Surprise! No work today. HEHE. Finally a break from work... And they are really nice to let me off... without even asking why.. And so far i think i'm the longest living part time in the shop lor.. lol! that is if mark isn't counted cos he left already! haha.

So weekends will be YEAH! FREE TIME. going to mco tmr thou... quite long nv go liao... we seriously like go once a month lor... kua zhang right... then concert like 2 months away... and i like... haven't even practise properly any of the songs lor... lol! BUT then... i also dunno whether i performing? lol. So... aiya... i'm sick of answering the qns... but i really dunno mah... So i can only still and the same way. LOL!

Joel.. at least i've blogging for the past 5 years!! hahahaa...

A quick update

I realised i haven't blog for a week!! HAHA. Busy and lazy... =x

Busy with school and work... I haven't worked for 4 days straight for a long time already lor... And i'm really tired... although workload was ok... and with the correct ppl ard.. work can't get too bad. I actually enjoy working with the 2 of them... Happy Birthday Desmond.. Enjoy off day! hahaha... And me... enjoy off till next mon too! :)))

As if work isn't enough... still have to go school hor... thank goodness i'm not holding a full time job. i can seriously understand those who are... damn poor thing..

School was still ok ba... but a bit guilty that i haven't done my part for the project yet... HAIX! Will do it tmr lah... cos finally it's offday... and study day too...

Going to stay over at my er-jiu's place tmr night... with jiaqi... since her parents went for hols... and she's alone at home with her father's workers. and she will be coming over on fri! Yay-ness. haha! Someone to Wii with. HEE.

Ok.. I'm tired.. Nitex. Will update again when i'm free tmr. haha

Thesis topic in the making. Nervous.

Spending the day in the lib doing my preparation certainly helps... at least i'm set to do something and most of the skeleton is done... just that i'm still unsure of some parts and actually i'm more afraid in presenting the idea to my classmates and lecturers... AH!! I'm scared of the Q&A section lah. Although i'm confident that i'm already very well-versed in this area of study.. i'm afraid that i might be too shallow in the topic itself. And i very much think that it will be rebutted in anyway it can be. -.-

And i should have already guessed who i will meet if i do on this topic lor... Totally true... You might say that it's fine cos she's someone i know... BUT i beg to differ... It's becos i know her... worst still... i dun want to sound stupid and naive lor! AHHHH...

Ok... i only have 1 night left to think abt it... Jiayou ba... I must tell myself that presenting the idea to them and getting feedbacks is very good... and it will certainly help... And i know my classmates are very nice ppl... i believe they will give very constructive suggestions and comments. JIAYOU! :)

Going off to school soon for arts law class... Test last week was... Err... i dun really know.. but i think i'm quite unorganised in my ans lor. HA. Whatever.. at least i think i wun be the worst. Just that not the best too... bleah. BYE

Mamma Mia!

Went out till quite late these 2 days. HEE. Ytd was supper at prata again! Seriously the 3 of us have been going there EVERY week. But ytd they watched me eat... they only drink.. cos i was the one who didn't have proper dinner... lol!

Then today... Went to meet sylvia at town... was late... missed the bus by a bit.. dotx. i saw the bus left the berth with my own eyes... sian-ed but didn't want to take train... so waited for the next one.. So late lor.. =x Had lunch at soup spoon at like 2+pm.. hee. after that got whatever we wanted... i bought next year's planner already!! Haha. Ya... after that make our way to Marina Sq to meet the rest for Mamma Mia!... Our timing not bad wor... haha. didn't wait like super long except for yushi cos her class ended late... Had long john for dinner... only had chicken and potato salad cos of the rather heavy late lunch. haha. but the potato not nice!! The lettuce and chinese nice thou. hee.

Then i dunno why out of the sudden joel msg-ed me to ask where and what time i watching the movie.... And so QIAO lah. They also watching at MS at the same timing. Like what luck right... HAHA! But luckily i booked the tickets first... if not we probably dun have a seat or have to sit front rows also... cos it was full house... small theatre lah... that's why.

Movie was good... Jan like laughing like dunno what lor... then heard someone else so busy during the movie... keep sms-ing... tsk tsk... Anyway.. I quite like the songs... but some seriously oldies thou. haha! Some parts are quite cool.. but some parts a bit draggy... as in the song like too long for the conversation. haha. Anyway... watching the movie reminds me of MCO concert. hahahha! will i be playing? i dun even know.

After movie can't decide where to go... in the end walked to bugis for dessert. YEAH! Love... if i go to hk i promise i will eat that very often. hee. Then train-ed home with the rest while yih waited for her dad. Bus-ed home from int.. lazy to walk... haha! And miss-ed Haizhen gu-gu's visit again... She's getting married this dec!! :) Hopefully i can attend... yea~ Actually she ROM liao lah... just haven't dinner lor... Finally another Lim family member getting married. Hehe.

Lazy to think of title. a bit random.

Posting up some pictures!!! :) but first... abt today!

Brought my parents to make new specs... and order my contacts too... Like literally brought them... cos they dunno how to go and i not paying. hahaha.

Then went down to office with zhiling to get ling's luggage.. Very nice of her to let me use her budget to buy... hee... she went to help her friend get bag from lacoste. in the end... it's the bag i wanted to buy... so i bought one too.. -.- read on to find out more.

Came home to put the things down be4 going back to bugis to meet zhiwen. Mos burger for dinner. So brilliant lah.. i used up EVERY single cent in my wallet to get myself the meal. Damn zun lah... hahaha. So i was left penniless after that.. same as her friend who only brought $3 out for the whole day cos she doesn't want to spend money. Smart. Unlike zw.. bought how much things?!?! haix.

Then went to watch nafa's platform again... with zw and joel. songs slightly different... but some boring one remained. =x I rather listen to 白蛇! i like. haha. Wanted to talk to qinglun at the end but unfortunately he was caught up with talking to someone else. HAHA! so too bad... and poor him lah. =P Accompanied joel to eat at kfc then bus-ed home. TIRED.

They reminded me of some photos i've yet to post..



Took these and wanted to show zhiwen. haha! Mengjie damn 帅 for that concert. lol! although the song was @#!$!^&$^%@##*!@. haha!

The bag which i bought today at staff price... OMG. i contemplated for quite long be4 i decided to get it thou i didn't have money at that time. But all of them ard are super nice to offer to pay for me first! wah.. so in the end i bought it and zhiling paid for me first. HEE. YEAH. Sling bag to me liking and expectations. :)

Haha. zhiwen's unglam photo at kfc. The moment was quite funny cos she didn't know i was taking a photo of her.. i think my actions quite fast this time. hehe!

Me in zw's expensive shades. haha! all the 3 of us (joel, zw and i) took solo with the shades. hmm... wonder when they will put it up. HEY. we should all use this as our msn pic. haha. ok. crap.

Rained so heavily today!! Quite cool to sleep thou.. so i'm off to sleep ba! WORK TMR. a bit sian-ed but promised already. whatever. got money more impt. then can buy more things. haha! Nitex.

HAPPY CHILDREN'S DAY to all children and kids at heart! and SELAMAT HARI RAYA to my malay friends! (thou not many) :)))

I can't believe that i took 2hours to get to work today!!! DOTX. it's like a missed the bus no. 5 by a few metres... cos the 66 i was on 'refused' to go faster... and then i took 65 cos the next 5 is going to take another 35min to come... But in the end... i reach work at like 1pm instead of 12pm! including time to get some lunch for my colleague.. Like wth... damn sian-ed by then...

But the day was quite ok... customers who came in for repair are all quite ok too.. at least those whom i served... got 1 customer is doctor.... damn funny... i think he 职业病 lor... cos i like sniffing away and speaking in a very bad voice... and he goes like.. 'u are not well huh?'... then when he left.. still say like 'hope u will be fine' or something like that... but quite cool.. very young DR.. he quite nice also lah... at least nv too shock abt anything. hahaha! anyway claim insurance lor.. so nvm.

Then i thought i saw a super familiar face... and a super familiar name too... But i dun think he can rmb me... He's like my pri school teacher for a while... Can't really rmb what he taught us... but i rmb it was in P5? And he's really a nice teacher... helped us a lot with a project which we were doing at that time.. some toy.. He was either relief or trainee teacher ba.. can't really rmb. But i had his address and he ever sent me a greeting card. cool right?! But i guess that was so long ago.. he can't recognise me anymore.. and i dun dare to ask... later not.. then so paiseh lor.. hahaha. Primary school days are love too.. seriously i met a lot of good friends and good teachers in pri school... :)

逍遥游 with 关迺忠!

YEah. Picture with Guan Nai Zhong, Li Bao Shun and Han Lei. Cool composer/conductor plus cool musicians.... and cool us! HAHA!

The concert was really good... but i was late and missed the first song.. which was pretty long. AGAIN! ARRGH... the 2nd time i'm late for concert. and consecutively! and both times it was becos of the kinda same situation... first time was the Liu Sha with SCO concert. And now... Just that this time i didn't cab there. and i still get to eat a bit. like seriously a bit. sian-ed.

But anyway. 4th Erhu concerto is really amazing... the song is amazing... the soloist (Li Laoshi) is amazing too! Then Han Lei also damn zai... blowing 2 guans at the same time... with different tunes! Like how is it possible right. We all saw and heard it for ourselves. All the songs ytd are nice!

Next concert up is WANG LI HONG!!! Lol... Oopx. Aiya... 遗憾 for the week is that i couldn't get A-mei's concert tix from 93.3fm!! HAIX. actually one day i super got chance cos i predicted the qns correctly and sent out the sms the moment the DJ mentioned the main qns... BUT then actually i sent with the wrong password. -.- By the time i sent a correct one... i think too late already. AH!!! Suan le...

Ok lah... next SCO concert is Yellow River! Wooohhh... :) And it also means that it's holidays for me by then! Yeah! HEE.

《罗志祥 Show on stage 进化三部曲》

I know i haven't update for quite a few days already. Ok.. actually it's more than 1week already. =x



在过去的两个小时，我一边看电视，一边读着罗志祥书 《罗志祥Show on stage 进化三部曲》。读着读着，我似乎有点忘记我在看电视了。只是偶尔抬头看一下，听一下《超级星光大道》的参赛者的演唱。但书里的一切却吸引了我。他写了以前在演艺圈不顺利的经历，也写道他怎么重回他的舞台。这是我才认识了多么认真的罗志祥。也许每一页，每一篇，都是他的亲身体验和肺腑之言，所以看起来都好感人。感人的是他怎么看待自己的事业；更感人的是他怎么对待自己的歌迷。他写道：“很容易在一个高度习惯了，就看不清楚下面的风景；当我曾经从一个高度又坠落，我会更了解在下面的感受，尤其是那些帮助你垫高的人，其实有多辛苦。大家都说艺人很辛苦，但我觉得歌迷更辛苦。” 他应该觉得是因为有歌迷，他才可以站在高处，所以帮助他垫高的人，也包括歌迷在内。然后，他又写道：“艺人只要努力把自己做好，把表演掌控好，身边还有那么多人会帮你、照顾你；歌迷要担心的事情、要吃的苦真的多很多——就拿这场演唱会来说，你们要从各地来，要担心坐车会不会来不及、要住在哪里？位子会不会被抢走？然后在歌迷群里追我的时候还会被骂和推挤，最后还要在外面日晒雨淋排队，你们几乎都要自己去面对和担心这些问题……歌迷还真的比艺人辛苦太多啦！” 就算不是歌迷，也会让他这份为歌迷着想的心意所感动吧。


书里还有很多他的心情写照，包括了他对爸爸的思念也是一部分。他对工作的认真也真的是不容忽视的。很庆幸我那天借了这本书。如果我在街上看到它，我会把它买下来。而且会想要更了解艺人的心理。我们常常把艺人的表演、好的言行举止当作是理所当然，但却不能真正的体会到他们下了台以后又是如何。如果是好的艺人，我觉得应该多得到表扬，我们应该多认识他们，而不是只看到他们的负面！:)

I think the book is quite inspiring cos he went thru ups and downs in his career and obviously he didn't give up and that's why he is who he is now.. Well... i admire him for that... Because he's been down twice... He is sure to cherish what he has now and who he is now... give his very best in everything he does - sing, dance, act and host... and put in effort where everyone is able to see the final product everytime. I think the words in the book will make ppl think. So if u are free... take a good look at the book and his music too! :)


PS: I'm not a hard-core fan of his... but i would think that "认真的男人真的是最帅的" is suitable to be used on him.

The busy but BEAUTIFUL weekend.

Ok... a few days didn't update liao... Err... cos quite busy lor.. haha! But today nua until damn happy... that's why i'm still awake now.. -.-

Went for Jiaying's Bday at Aloha Changi last fri... i was quite late cos work ended late cos of some stuff... and i came home to bathe and went by cab after 8 to avoid peak hour charges.. but in the end 2 ppl pangseh-ed lor. But well... they got their reasons lah... Forgive them but they better come when we next meet. haha! Anyway... the only person i know is jiewan. So i hafta stick to her... haha! So anyway we update update abit since we quite didn't meet already. right? and we can't decide when was the last time we meet either. haha!!

So anyway... thou our original plan was to go home like 10plus... and we really did want to leave... but in the end she saw interesting games and since we have ppl to play with... decided to sit down and play. With jiaying's sec 4 friends. Oh.. we like played for quite long already then they realised they didn't know my name. lol! I'm surprised i can hun quite well with strangers. haha.

In the end... we left the place like 2+am? LOL! And guess what. i had to wake up at 6.30am the next morning. dotx. Jiewan sent me to the main street and i took a cab back... cos she not shun lu... but very good liao... cos the moment i got down from her car, i got a cab... and the cab got me home in like 10min from loyang ave. Luckily lah.. cos on the way back... it started with drops of rain on the windscreen.. so i asked the uncle to put me at the shelter... as it was getter heavier... the next thing u know... it's POURING! Really kua zhang ok. Anyway. Thanks for entertaining me ya.. I enjoyed playing! haha.

So next day (sat)... surprisingly i could wake up... good thing my phone is on the shelf charging so that i would get up and off the alarm.. if not ah... i think i will just press snooze and forget abt it. lol. In the end still a bit late to meet charmaine. =x cos it was raining and i was trying to find a plastic bag to put my umbrella... But in the end when i got to downstairs.... the rain stopped... -.- So qiao. Anyway we weren't late... but rather one of the earliest!!

Err.. regretted not practising enough at home before going.... damn difficult! A lot hun-ing involved cos really cannot catch the notes. =x Actually after that quite happy to hear that laoshi wants to put me in gaohu cos long de chuan qi erhu really difficult hor.. but then again... i dun even think i can perform.. Haix. Actually i feel sad that i have to miss so many things this year end becos of my attachment.. but i have to put studies related in first place.. so i have to do it. I was really kinda half-hearted when i make the decision... and i still am i think... Perhaps until it's going to be confirmed. I hope soon so that i can really be relieved that it's settled.

After MCO went to watch Babylon A.D. at Suntec with Yushi... Thanks to Liyana who gave us the tix. and caiwen too... I was kinda late... but luckily there was something going on in the theatre which delayed the screening... so when we go in the movie just started... Hee. The show quite interesting... although couldn't quite understand the whole rationale behind it. lol! And the ending a bit confusing.. it's kinda neither happy or sad ending ba... just blissful ending? Ahh.. whatever.

Sunday.. Funniest thing... i kept on thinking i was going to work on sunday... at least until sat i was still thinking so... And i also rmb that i was supposed to watch beautiful sunday. So actually i told my supervisor i didn't want to work on the sunday. But i happily agreed to have lunch break with yushi tgt! We even decided on what to have for lunch! dotx. I only rmb i'm not working when my sis asked me on sat night and i didn't rmb the lunch until she msg me on sunday to ask what time we want to go for lunch. OMG! damn blur. haha!

Ok.. So highlight of the day was Beautiful Sunday. It feels weird to be sitting downstage watching them and not performing... haix... i miss performing on the stage actually... and esp. with the SYCO ppl. I wondered if i still have the chance. cos afterall next year's syco is still an unknown to me... :( Same for nusco concert? Even the nearest i can think of... mco concert. I'm quite sad that i couldn't participate. Actually i do like to perform ya? But not solo i think. haha!

HAd some celebration with the syco peeps at esplanade floors for 2 birthday ppl.... afterwhich most ppl left and the rest of us went dinner with yss. He's damn nice i really have to say. He really seems more like friend than teacher to us. Even promised that we go out once more before he goes back to shanghai. Cool teacher. Partly really becos he's still young and wants to be young. haha. Seriously will miss all these SYCO ppl if i nv go back to sy again... Actually i should have left long ago... but they made me hang on to it... and now how?

So that's end of ytd. Although it was Mid-Autumn Festival ytd... Not much was going on... cos it rained super heavily... And sky was super cloudy no moon to see... So no party.. Quite sad... Cos it means the festival was just over like that. Seriously Singapore should consider making the festival a Public Holiday. Becos... it's also a very impt festival for the chinese!

Ok.. That's all.. i think i go and sleep le.. although today slept a lot already. =x I'm sleeping for tmr so that afternoon wun be like keep wanting to sleep. lol. Nitex.

New fav songs!

刘力扬 - 眼泪笑了。Dunno why. but just like the song and feel kinda sad for the lyrics thou it's not really supposed to be. Anyway she really has the singing power.

李玖哲 - 不、完美。The first time i heard this song was watching the MV on tv. And i liked it immediately.. But the whole story is quite sad... for the guy... 为什么爱人的那个人最后总是伤心的那个？

李玖哲 - 爱不需要理由。A song from his last album lah. but find the lyrics quite true? It applies to whatever form of 爱 i think. And in this case... it's the fatherly love. 爱，真的不需要理由。

苏打绿 - 爱人动物。Actually i want to watch the show lah... think it's a nice show... music nice too! hee.

蔡淳佳 - 约好的以后。One of my favs from the album... overall the whole album is quite nice lor!

Today just like that ba. bye.

Celebration with dearest han

Think i've been faithfully updating my blog lately ya.. although always on different things like the 'childish' Diner Dash that zhiwen commented. LOL! but very long nv post pictures already. lazy lah.. always take so long to load.. but today i shall post up some! :)

Anyway... today i'm a bad girl cos i ponned class... to go out with friends. =x Err... but in the end 2 ppl pangseh-ed the 4 of us... so the 2 of us whom ponned class were quite sad cos we could arrange another date if they said it earlier... But nonetheless... We had our share of fun... It was han's treat for the Waraku... thou we didn't really had much cos that girl didn't eat much! Dun deny ok.

Then went for a drink or rather... 2 drinks at Cafe Iguana... Happy Hours mah... hee. So we each had 2 rounds... kim and han turned red while yuhui and i looked perfectly normal... it's always good to be adults cos there are more places to go... just that whether we want to go or not.. haha. Then walked along the riverside.... see those lanterns... eh.. all those figures... dunno who are they! lol. they nv put labels or whatever.. how we know huh? But anyway the funny thing was we tried to take photo with the rabbit lantern and we had to try different passerbys in order to get one that really captured us and the rabbit... the rest were all failures. dotx. Ok.. now the photos shall do the talking. :)


Yuhui and i with our first round of drinks. Peach margarita in my hands and lime in hers...


The 2 red-faced girls. haha. and that's kim's 2nd drink...


We are so themed today. lol! Mostly black and white... (ok actually my shirt is light pink lah.)


Our 2nd round of drinks.... err.. no photo for the first round cos i haven't take out the camera yet and they are nowhere to be seen already.. lol.

Here comes the disastrous photos.

The 1st attempt. the sugar daddy knows how to take the girl but dunno how to take us. fine.


The 2nd. Obviously the passerby photographer no. 2 shouldn't be taking from this angle. dotx.


3rd. The passerby didn't even ask which one we wanted to take and she 一厢情愿-edly stand in a position and took us in this angle... so in the end we got the tiger head instead -.-


Like finally. We decided to look for a potential good passerby photographer... he was holding a SLR/DSLR... so we assumed that he's good. and indeed. At least we see the rabbit now! HAha! Thanks to this passerby. :)

But overall i think a tripod stand can do a better job. Cos we stood in the photographer's point of view and it was totally possible to get us all in with the rabbit... but i just dun understand. Ah.. nvm.

Lastly!


A lovely cupcake han gave to each of us plus a 贴心卡片 too... So sweet of her ya. :))) Glad that she likes the gift and enjoyed the night with us! Yeah! Meet up soon for another feast!

Convocation and School!

Ok... today marks the end of Week 5 of academic semester... WOW. Like so fast lah... But ok.. at least i've sort of decided my thesis topic... but i need more research and substantial readings to back it up... But actually i've already decided on the ppl i need to interview on the issue also... And true enough... considering doing something i'm interested and more familar with will be a greater advantage to myself... so i think i should go on... just that.. I do know that there will be a lot of obstacles too... so i just have to be prepared and beware too. :)

Convocation was over ytd (3rd sept)... It's obviously new to me cos i've nv been to a formal one before... But i think an arts school is afterall an arts school... any serious event could be turned into something more relax and fun... You see some graduands turning the stage into theirs. it's really cool... Plus all the Arts Management students present stood up to cheer for our lecturer who went up stage to receive his Masters certificate! I think that was the coolest moment. :) Anyway.. i've nv seen so many Lasalle-ians together before.. hahaha! =x Took quite a few pictures with some classmates... some of them disappeared quite fast... so couldn't catch a moment with them.... And some didn't go mah... Then so qiao our seats were so separated... that we didn't even have chance to chat with the rest who didn't continue to level 3... what arrangements. haha! Well... Still got one year... Next year must wear the hat and hopefully be the first to receive the cert. haha! (ok. i'm kidding abt the first part)

Pictures hopefully will be up soon cos i have none of them now... Dad and mum took the camera with them to Penang after the ceremony... So i haven't got them uploaded yet.. and then the rest of the photos are taken with different ppl's camera... so i got to collect them lah... Then there bound to be missing ones i guess... haha! But hopefully not.. :)

So this weekend dad and mum not ard.. it's MY heaven... which explains the sleeping time i had today (thurs). Slept at 2am ytd... woke up ard 10am. Had breakfast (surprisingly)... and continued the watch tv and napping process... haha! I just lazed on my parents' bed the whole day before i decided it was time to bathe and whatever to go school. That was already almost 5pm. haha! And now i'm totally wide awake. =x

Class today was quite fun... Learnt a lot... It's also a warning that we should really revise our work very regularly... not only this subject but other mods also... It's really quite useful to have revisions every week... And the way the lesson was conducted... thou the subject the content could be dry but i think the lecturer tried his best to put in as many elements as possible to make the lesson interesting and help us rmb as much details as we can... Furthermore he wasn't ever angry that we forget the contents.. rather he went through the same thing over and over again to ensure that all of us are clear of the concept... For that.. i think the fellow classmates should also put in equal effort to revise and study for the sake of ourselves... Yeah. Jiayou ya all.... Next week cannot be defeated by his questions! haha!

Ok... Tired liao... Haha!! update again soon!

Diner Dash!

Ok.. i'm currently addicted to Diner Dash... Be it on DS lite or on comp.. haha! Practically completed the whole story mode on DS lite with ALL the stages with expert scores except for 2 of them which no matter how hard i tried i couldn't do it... Already tried all methods but none worked... and supposedly they are the easiest ones. (Level 2&3 of the first rest.)

Then online... managed to dl a version that can play the full game with ads. So cool. doesn't matter the ads lah.. just that sometimes there will be error in connection.. But till now haven't unlock finish all yet.. stuck at this particular level... where the cust. dun need ANY time to think what they want to eat and also dun need ANY time to eat as well... So like the moment u sit them down.. they can order already.. then the moment the food is served to them.. they finished eating.. and amidst all these... still have to serve them side snacks and whatever... How to play?!?! I told er-jie... she tried and failed too.... haha. still trying... but like that will sian one lor...

Then dl another one.. can play the endless game for unlimited time... some of the cust type very funny... quite interesting... but cannot play the story mode one... But overall it's still quite cool cos can customise own restaurant layout and decor... and endless is good enough ba... haha! I'm easy to please. Hee!

Why is it that my decision, wants and needs are always rejected? Why do i not have the right to get what i want?

TSK.

Ok... feeling bad today.. tio-ed complaint from one cust ytd... HAIX. Supervisor called today... to ask what happened and what we said to the cust.. Then realised it's partly our fault really... and perhaps partly mine.. but at least we gave suggestions.. not just bo-chap abt the matter what... and pls... the lady's attitude wasn't good also lah... she could have told us what she expect of us instead of walking off with a damn black face without saying what's the unhappiness was abt. at least give us a warning right. But well... what is done is done... now can only see if the heads are able to settle her since she already sent in complaint. And ok.. one more lesson learnt. But hor.. why he ask me and not ask the full-time huh??

Dun want to elaborate already... damn frustrating for such things to happen... hope they can settle it soon... and that i wun see the cust. again. haha!

Feeling so tired the whole day! Despite me having enough sleep ytd night.. still felt like sleeping in the aftn. although in the end i didn't cos i watched tv... Wanted to go lib borrow some books and do some research for my topic.. but in the end didn't also... cos i was smart to search for some titles using online catalogue first... and the titles are only available in reference lib or used book collection... Then i lazy to go national lib. haha! So i'm working on my own for the idea presentation for tmr. lol. Hopefully the idea works. =P

See i rant.

WAH! I can't believe it's so qiao that the new part-timer at shaw is really called tan yushi!! LOL. Ok... i didn't tell her that... but seriously.... QIAO right?!?! hahaha. I tot it's a very uncommon name lor... So sushi u are NOT special after all. lol. =P

Anyway... today quite ok ba... nothing much... I become part-time repair person... lol. Damn proud of myself man... haha. Oh ya... surprise ya.. i went to work today. haha... must earn more money lah... and in need of ppl lor... today 3 females leh... a lot of things very difficult... luckily desmond came in a while and helped us move some stocks into the store... and then still got a lot outside lor... Thanks to the redemption... ok lah... it helped us a bit.. cos some cust dun like the bag.. so trade in for something else... then got free bag lor. lol. put into our t-load corner...

Tried to help the full time do as much things as possible lor... if not later she work until very late again... very ke lian leh... somemore she bring work home to do lor... so help her do some paper work... actually wanted to re-compile the repair list... but didn't have time to do so... if next time go work still haven't do.. then help her do lor... 2 Bosses came down today to take a look.. so impromptu... and i was doing nothing while the other 2 serving cust... =x but they only came in a while then left already... then like ask a bit abt the repair things... phew.. nv come back again.. lol.

Bus-ed home.. realised today bus 5 is really siao-ed... morning i waited for like 20+ min be4 the bus came... was late for 10min... Then going back that time i checked the timing... say the next bus is 32min!! Then subsequent bus is 60min! Means half an hour then got 1 bus leh! crazy. Went to the other bus stop in the end... shun bian buy some food to eat... Luckily i had BK breakfast this morning lah... cos after that didn't eat until i left work at 8.30 lor.. is hungry de.

Then transfer to bus 31 at before parkway there... damn the bus got the beetle... WAH LIAO. LANDED ON MY FACE!!!! dotx. swept it away with my hand then dropped onto my bag... i quickly took out tissue to catch it... I thought i got it lor... after a while.. 'another one' stopped on my hand... so stupid lah... i just like swept it away AGAIN! Then i was thinking how come got so many... made me so super uncomfortable lah... somemore got someone sitting beside me at the PP stop. argh. In the end it turned out to be i didn't catch that one... cos i opened up the tissue and it's empty. -.-''' But then again... My face feels a bit stingy after that lor! Then plus the roof leak a bit water on my head.. damn sian-ed lah! So suay.

Anyhows... good stuff awaited my return.. haha! Sis' bf bought us Goodwood Park Hotel's mooncake... it's snowskin with yang zhi gan lu filling.. YES! The HK dessert!!! lol. It's super nice. :)

Just now saw a few HK camp photos appearing in my shared folders (actually they were there long ago.. but dunno why like just received?) So anyway... after looking at them... I really missed hk! So ya.. sent in the email to tell my lecturer that i want the HK fringe club to be my first choice already... so when it's confirmed (i dunno when).. I'll have to start doing arrangements for all that are going to happen...

Ok.. going to sleep le... hope i can wake up early tmr! haha. nitex.

I survived the rush today...

Went to aunt-in-law's place for my uncle's death anni.. It's been 8 years already... how sad... my uncle passed away when he was only 50years old. But anyways.. good to see the family still living well. :)

Went off to meet wengru aka wendy, minyu and supposedly jieying to get jane's present. But the time was being pushed back and back... we ended up meeting 2hours later than the original set time. haha! I was a little earlier since i have nothing to do... went to look see... ended up sitting at McCafe cos feet very pain. After a while the 2 came and we just chop chop go get her present... I think the perfume quite nice. :) But after that the 2 of them got something else to buy so we dragged the time a bit and in the end it was past the time i wanted to reach her house. Anyways... we took a cab down... and i stayed for say... 45min? Lol. Then rushed down to SCH.

The cab uncle damn idiot lah... He's like driving super slow lor... Even when there's no car in front... then he slowed down before a ERP entrance. Like pls... there's no turning back already so can just go through it? Anyway i'm paying right?! And i think it's the first time i tell a cab driver to go faster cos i'm in a hurry. But damn in the end i was still late cos he didn't turn into the taxi pick up and drop off point. I was merely a minute late i think. BISH!

And so i missed the first song.. ok.. i had to stand outside and look at the tv. Dots. And true enough the first song was the one i wanted to listen to!! It's 传奇II.. which we played at HK camp last year. But there version more difficult and longer... Mum said that song is the nicest.. I think it's a cool song. although 浴火凤凰 still nicer. Oh. they played 茶马古道行 too... and i think they played the last part even faster... crazy. lol.

瞿建青 played 阳光 damn fast too! But she's super pro.... hit every note nicely even when it's very very fast... i think it was the accompaniment that couldn't catch up with her. She recognised that i'm from SYCO at the autograph session! surprised. haha. Then 孟杰's song... Er... it's seriously a very contemporary piece... and it's really noisy k.... lol. But his skills good lah. (so the problem lies with the song?) =x. And he appeared really 迷人 lah... All white!!! And the fact that he played so confidently made his even more prominent. Haha! Young and handsome seriously. too bad he got girlfriend le. LOL!

刘沙老师 recognised me too! :) At least ya... if not damn sian-ed. haha! At first he was quite surprised to see me... he was like.. ‘你怎么会。。。？’ then in the end he rmb-ed i'm wasn't from HK. haha. So we exchanged a few words before i had to move down the line to 孟杰... Eh.. didn't take any photo lah. haix. Another surprise was to see one of the HK music camp instructor - 郭老师 (ruan) at the concert. It's the first time he comes to Sg.. specially to watch this concert and also to tour ard.. So we exchanged a few words before i left the place with my parents.

I'm glad i went to the concert... :) Sorry to jane cos i only went for such a short time... And i dun even know if i'm going to wendy's one tmr... (they have the same birthday). Sorry too if i'm not going. haha.

Anyway.. i told dad and mum abt it... and they too encouraged me to go for it.. They too think it's a rare opportunity and it will do me better... Well... i'm all set to give it a try at least... unless it didn't work out then i'll have to go to my second choice... which is something i've been wanting to do also lah. But at least that's like local and there are more chances to it than the hk one. So to speak the truth... i'm quite looking forward to it.. Just that... I have to complete my sem1 first lah! MY THESIS!!!! dotx.

Eh. how ah?

Law class to my opinion is really the class with most surprises. sudden funny shoutings from the lecturer... omg. the lecturer is such a humorous person... but sarcastic at times and a bit ba gua too... lol.

Anyway... today was a relaxed day at work.. cos heard it was raining heavily outside... but it means sales not good too.. so sian-ed lah... feel like sleeping the whole day. haha! First thing can't wake up at designated time... so was late in meeting via to go to the warehouse.. but when we reached there.. it was not very late lah... At least we got to 'snatch' some good stuff... quite proud of myself.. wanted to get more Lacoste bag.. but a bit hard to find or.. not to my liking. So at the end of the day. i had 1 backpack, 1small tote, and a pair of shoes. :)

Hopefully this weekend will be all right. feel very bad not going to one of the friend's bday and will be leaving very early for the other.. but well... i've promised to work long ago... and since not all going too... forget it ya.. =x On the other hand.. they were the ones who didn't come for mine and keep putting aeroplane too. haix.

Argh.. i run out of things to blog abt!

Anyway... just to rant a bit... not really rant but voice lah... Currently i have the chance of going to HK for my IBL. i.e. Industrial Based Learning.. will be attached to the Fringe Club if i get it... and should be going over from mid-nov till mid-jan. And i think it's a super good chance and i sent in my application to my course coordinator right away. But now.. i'm having a bit of second thoughts for it... 2 months is neither long nor short... but i already know at least how many things are going to happen in these 2 months... And i would say some are quite impt to me. Eg. the 2 SCO concerts i've been looking forward to, syco audition, MCO concert, the birthdays i have to miss then, the season's greetings... and also the start of school next sem. and seriously i think the performance is really quite a headache cos i'd really have to account and explain for that... and well.. i really dun want to step on a mine anymore.

But for my future.. a nicer CV and better review and all that. I seriously think i should go for it. And what more... whoever knows i'm in this situation from class is encouraging me to take up this one instead of something local. Which is super true lah... HOW? Actually i think i should go too.. just that i'm a bit afraid to go alone. lol!

Ok.. i will still think abt it over the weekend.. thou it's more set towards going. haha. but also have to see if i can get it or not lah.

Bought tix to Lee Hom's concert!

Haven't updated anything this week. haha. Must have been a uneventful week. lol.

Anyways... the highlight to the mood of my week is... I'm going to Lee Hom's concert this nov!!! YEAH~! Saw the ad. on newspaper... Actually i couldn't recognise him.. it's the OCBC thing which attracted me to see what is it.. and yea... they are giving priority 10% off for OCBC credit cards.. so till somewhere first week of sept... can only buy his concert tix using ocbc cards. Immediate response was... I WANT TO GO. And see wants to go too. And i booked the tix just today. Yay-ness. :) I'm happy.

But i promised to pay for my own tix lah.... wah liao... more expensive than JJ's concert... tsk tsk... anyway also buy liao. haha.

Other than that... there really isn't much going on.... other than school.. most of time i was at home... rotting away either with tv. or my sudden craze to Diner Dash again.. haha. i think it was monday night... i was playing away... and i ended up sleeping 6+am in the morning.. dotx! I know that's extreme. =x

Tues Ikea-ed with sylvia... wanted to buy the laptop cushion... but apparently it was temporarily out of stock. dotx. and to think we went all the way there... But at least we had our fav food at the restaurant... and at least she bought something from ikea... then went to Courts to see some laptops... then lastly to giant... Since already make a trip there... must make full use and go all the places available mah.. haha.

Ok.. got to go school already.. Law class today. hopefully not too bad. Lecturer is quite entertaining.. lol.

Silver Medal for Singapore

I can't help but feel excited after watching today's matches. Eh.. first was the gold medal match between Singapore and China for table tennis... thou it's a known fact that China is most prob going to win the match... Our players are cool too! :) And isn't it already a pride to see our country players on the international stage doing our country proud?! Good enough. seriously. We still have a long way to go... jiayou! :)

It was a bit sian-ed when it got to the double match.. cos not pinning hopes le.. and a bit sad to not being able to watch Guo Yue play singles... She's good too although Zhang Yining was coolest... I think she will go even further than who she is now. yeah.

Oh.. and so i served the other Olympics channels... And YEAH! I watched the gold medal match between Lin Dan and Lee Chong Wei for badminton. Lin Dan is really damn good i tell u... He's all with energy and skill. Finally see him with his true abilities. So i seriously dunno what happened earlier this year.. and what happened during the last Olympics (he was out during the 32-round in Athens 2004). lol.

He performed VERY VERY well today and trashed Lee totally. 21-12 and 21-8. He totally lived up to his name this Olympics. haha. Smaches at every chance he had and towards different directions. Fast and accurate.. Anyway.. he has such a bad-boy face. haha. But.. he's the idol now. lol! He beat all his opponents in this Olympics with 2 sets of games straight.. didn't even give them a chance to fight back. Bestest. Presenting to u.. World Rank No. 1 Shuttler - Lin Dan! :)

Aiya... cannot find the table tennis team photos. sian-ed. But anyways... more Olympics to watch... YEAH. cool. I love.

Another weekend burnt

Erm... actually really tired le.. =x But blog for a while ba...

Ytd went to work then to geraldine's bday celebration... I thought i was quite late... but in the end... huiqun and linching were later... cos they actually forgot that it was ytd. ok. cool them. haha! Then saw huihui who was from rss also... so she invited me to sit with them at the table... talked to a few of her friends ard there... actually i dun really know where they were from.. but it doesn't matter lah.. just know more ppl lor... haha! Sat and chatted with the 2 girls while ger was busy walking ard and entertaining her friends. left ard 11.30pm to catch a bus home... ok lah... not that bad. came home and talked to sis for a while... And i think i slept at like 3+am in the end! dotx. dunno what i was doing ya?

Today went to 138 in the morning for the lunar 7th month prayer to our ancestors... Was supposed to meet some friends but in the end half of them put aeroplane... so it was cancelled last min... and in the end i was so bored!!! Wanted to do some shopping but was rather lazy to go out already.. plus it was raining quite heavily in the afternoon. Lazed ard till like almost 5pm then went out...

Bus-ed to suntec... wanted to buy some stuff.. but dun have... so wanted to walk to esplanade already. Wah liao.. dunno what's going on at suntec this week.. the paveways are like super blocked... had to walk a big around... took the other route to get to esplanade lor. Saw this super duper cool Lamborghini drove past. I bet everyone else was looking too. It's so like Batman's car... all black and cool. Ok. back to the esplanade... so met kenny to get the tix... and waited for joel and zhiwen to come.. but in the end zhiwen late. lol!

Saw a lot of familiar faces on the stage... and saw a few friends in the audience seats. mostly the bds ppl... cos chaixia was soloing... Her yunnan was quite cool! She played well lah.. esp. the first movement. impressed. :) Fire was good too! It's a nice song lah... No wonder the name for the concert. Han tian lei was a very hip version... but some parts were not very together. so ya. Liu lang zhe is nice... His intonation and sound quality was good. but i think violin still nicer. haha! I think it's cos of the range difference. So violin will sound more solid and the whole song is more 丰富. haha. I hope can find the scores for it! Maybe i can learn. haha.

Then after concert went ms hk cafe to eat with zhiwen and joel... damn hungry cos nv eat dinner. eat and talk rubbish and finally decided to come home... bus-ed home with zhiwen... i'm very thrifty and really took a bus all the way home... nv stop halfway to take cab... although i really feel like doing that.. haha! =x But i thought i only have big notes and dun feel like using it yet. Anyways i got concession already to dun waste lor. :) I think i will miss syco practices. More imptly all the chatting sessions with them!! haha.

Tmr is another working day... seriously i'm thinking whether i should continue working next month... it's like i dun really have much time to do other things ya? Or is it just my own time management... or possible to let me change a working environment? I'm so so so afraid and stress to work there now... like every working day is a challenge and i feel so relieve at the end of the day like 'finally i can leave'. So i'm seriously having 2nd thoughts on continuing to work there. but i dun think i'll ever be transferred out. haha.

We'll see... give me till the end of the month to decide. cos i think i will still need some form of income. at least a little more each month. lol. OK.. nitex.

Beijing 2008

Been in a Olympics mood lately... cos practically i'm home most of the mornings and afternoons... since the channels are free... why not just watch? haha..

But mostly watching Gymnastic... Men team finals, women team finals, men individual all-rounder finals... but missed women individual all-rounder finals today... but now it's showing on Chn U... so i'm watching it.. just that it's near to the end already... Expected Nastia LIUKIN from USA to win the medal... she's been performing very well in the team competition... Anyway other than that... she's pretty too. haha! Anyway 1st runner up Shawn JOHNSON from USA was good too... but anyway she's still young so way to go ya!

If only they compete ytd instead of today.... Men competition is so... scary. They are like performing very well at the team finals... but dunno why quite a no. of the competitors had very bad performance at the individual and they like fell off the apparatus during the competition. In the gold medal position was Yang Wei from China. He's good but i think he's not really good in all the apparatus... Or at least... high bars isn't his forte... He just went up... do a few ok-only stunts... swing and turn a few rounds and finished off... But the rest of the apparatus he was really good.. eg. the double rings. i think he looked damn cool when he's up there... And becos high bars was his last item... he was already a few points ahead of the others.. he just need to pass it safely in order to get the gold.. safely = not falling from the bars and perform at least the basic stunts they had to fulfil.

In Silver medal position was UCHIMURA Kohei from Japan. He's even cooler cos he fell from pommel horse not once but TWICE. and still can get 2nd. But his team mate wasn't so lucky... Tomita Hiroyuki fell from Rings and fell out of the medals... a pity thou cos he performed quite well in others.

Yang Wei's team mate Chen Yibing wasn't that lucky too... He finished the competition LAST! dotx. To think that i was thinking quite highly of him.. but can't blame him lah... he fell off from pommel horse which was his first apparatus... and i think thereafter all his apparatus were quite badly done except for rings.. which was his forte. I think he fell at parallel bars also which was the main reason to his injury... Cos after that he fell from high horizontal bar again and in the end didn't finish his last item which was floor. Sian-ed.. hopefully he will do well in the individual apparatus competition.

Then today i watched something SO boring!!! i.e. Lin Dan from China vs Chen Jin from China in the semi-finals for Badminton Men's singles. Wah liao.. what is there to see when they are representing the same country... Results so predicted... obviously the deemed better one had to win what... Lin Dan is supposed to be World Rank No.1 lor! So the match was plain boring cos they looked like they were practising with each other for their next match. lol. So in the end Lin Dan beat Chen Jin flat after winning 2 sets straight. They must be thinking to themselves something like 'just get it over and be done with, it a no-point match'. Lol. and I bet it was the same for Women's doubles semi-finals cos it was also China vs China. But becos of that.. Finals will be more exciting at least. Haha! Looking forward to the Men's singles final. To see Lin Dan playing against Lee Chong Wei (world rank no.2) from malaysia again. And i seriously hope that Lin Dan is able to show his power and live up to his name of being world no.1. (the last time i watch them compete during my china trip, lin lost totally and how shameful for a first in the world)

Watching repeat of Badminton Women's doubles final now... it's China vs Korea... The other Chinese team already won the Japanese team and held a bronze medal... Ok.. actually China got the gold medal already lah.. quite expected too.. i think i seem them played against each other also.

Ok... after so much on other countries... let's encourage Team Singapore!! :))) The table tennis team had been doing quite well... And truly speaking i wasn't having high hopes on Li Jiawei for Women's singles cos she always very unstable at competitions... And this is not the first time she leads in the first 2 or 3 sets and after that lost eventually. Dunno why leh... maybe her stamina not as good.. But all the best for Mixed doubles! But the other player for Women's singles didn't let the countrymen down ya... And yeah!! We are getting a medal! Finally the little red dot is making into the great nations. I'm proud of Singapore! :))) Thou the Chinese team is really like how to defeat.. but well... we'll nv know... If we clinche the Gold, it will be a further glory for the team! If not, Silver itself is enough to show the world what Singapore is capable of! Yeah.

Can somebody tell me why is it that I will feel very touched when i see the victory ceremony? And it applies to Whatever sports it is! I know it's ridiculous... and i just feel VERY happy and TOUCHED for whoever from whichever country winning the medal.. I'd probably cry when i see Team Singapore standing on the podium. lol!

Ok lah.. shall stop here.. for the moment... when there's other exciting stuff.. i'll be back. hee.

Stress starts..

Mother is in her crazy mood again... shouts at us the moment she came back. thanks to er-jie (again). i better be careful with my actions... dotx. Well... i'm not the root of the argument... but given her character... she can just shift everything to everyone... and find at least 1 thing to say. cool.

Anyways... school been going for 2 weeks now... It's seriously not the honeymoon period anymore. Haha! Cos we really got to start thinking of everything we want to do and get down to it... This is of cos to prevent any last min rushing and chionging towards the end of the year. No more like year 1 and 2... taking own sweet time and doing it late into the night be4 submission.

Well... i think most will think that it's only the start of sem 1 and there's still sem 2... But then! Really a lot of things that require long-term committment and consistency. I hope i can hold them lah... afterall.. I'm paying for the degree ya... (not literally me paying but ya.) If only i can type like this for my thesis... i think i will hit 10k words shortly.. haha! Ok... that's like full of crap.

I have less than 2 weeks to decide what i want to do for my thesis... and frankly speaking 2 weeks isn't very long esp. when i have no idea at all... Good luck... i got to think every moment i'm free... *shakes head*

Very tired.. it's going to be a hectic weekend again.. I think i should really stop working... it's making me lose my freedom on weekends. dotx.

National Day weekend is full of fun!

Pretty obvious i haven't been updating for a few days already... although i'm like rather tired now... but if i dun update... everything will be like accumulated and i will nv do it then.. haha!

Ok. Had a wonderful national day!! With the beloveds for half of the day and half of the beloveds for the 2nd half. haha! I think it's a bit confusing... but nvm lah.. =P So we went off to suntec for lunch at the ramen rest as a celebration for jan's bday... Ok.. i think this time the experience is better than the last ba... haha! Ramen without spicy soup is still better for me ba. hee. Anyway suntec was really crowded but the rest is really quiet... haha!! So next time... actually dun need to reserve seats le. food is all right... i guess it's better now... And u all know what... the next day i met another grp of friends and we were talking abt the rest... one of them ate 6degrees of chili leh!!!! I couldn't even eat 1. haha -.-

Then after that.. proceed to next stop... Chocz... ok.. quite empty too.. haha! Had our cake for the birthday girl there... Nice wor... but too sweet for charmaine... tsk tsk. I think it's good.. it's a heart-shaped chocolate truffle cake. And just nice got 10 chocolate balls on it... so we were all entitled to one! haha. After singing the song and blowing out the candles.... here comes my little present for the bday girl... Eh... I just rmb i started doing it after i finished typing the last entry.. so that's probably like 1am? I hand itchy lah... so i do all the way till like 7am. =x And mum actually woke up and asked me if i got sleep. i said 'yes' and i lied. =x But i'm happy with the outcome and i think the rest like it too! Right? 我的心意和努力是不会白费的... :)))

After the cake... some went off le... left the few got nothing better to do de... roam ard... and decided to catch the fireworks but still very early... went to TCC for a drink.. wah liao... i think the drink i order should have very little coffee leh... cos got chocolate and rose... but then dunno why still quite strong for me.. haha! But hor... i also can confirm it didn't help in keeping me awake cos i really very tired and perhaps yawned for one of the most times in my life when i'm out. haha. It's really non-stop as it gets later and later... Seriously... cos i fell asleep damn fast on the way home on bus. I dun even know what yushi was doing beside me.. haha!!

Ok.. back to the fireworks... They are really beautiful... And for quite some time... i've bringing my cam along to any fireworks display and of cos it's a pity not to capture them for collection purpose... but then again... everytime i do that... i will be looking at the fireworks thru the lens most of the time and actually i felt that i missed the most beautiful moment of the fireworks although i had them in visible memory. This time... i didn't bring cam along... and i didn't take out my phone to take pictures... I felt that it's the best i seen. You might wander why ppl still likes to watch fireworks even thou it might be the same every year... Being at the place itself is really different.. the loudness of the fireworks could be deafening but it's really 振奋人心的一刻... haha. very hard to describe... but cool lah! Hee.

Then sunday... went out to klunch with some nusco peeps... eventually some didn't turn up cos couldn't wake up... sis and i were kinda late cos we can't find parking space. haha! But anyways... had quite a good time... Then our initial plan was to go sentosa after singing.. but unfortunately it was raining... on and off.. And so unluckily... the car couldn't start cos according to the person we called... the cold weather could have caused the battery failure... and so we waited there for the person to come and the rest had to cab down on their own first... There are a lot of funny moments within but nvm.. lazy to elaborate..

So anyway... we had early dinner at Kim Gary HK cafe at like 4pm?! haha. either 3rd or 4th time there... but now good leh.. the baked rice not so salty liao... I will still go back there de lor... yeah... Sat there for quite long wor... discussing abt some business opportunities and the possibilities... quite cool for an idea.. the next thing is they have to really start doing it... cool.

Then... we came out of the hk cafe dunno what to do.... So they suggested going for some drinks... Eh.. didn't we just ate!? hahaha. It's just sat lah... keep eating and drinking... just that most of us didn't eat at the ms hk cafe after the fireworks. -.-''' Yup... so we proceeded to the next stop which was Brotzeit German Bier Bar & Restaurant... good ambience i would say... beer not bad too.. sausages not bad too... but in the end sis and i couldn't finish the 1L... a bit wasted. haha!

Now... monday... original plan was to go out in the aftn... but in the end didn't cos of various reasons... so in the end i nua-ed at home... and then meet yushi, siyih and qin for dinner thou qin didn't eat... Had New York New York... Hmm... quite a hearty meal for it... and also a rather expensive one.. lol!!! feel a bit bad after that... =x Then went on to a very impt mission for the night... glad that we have enough time to prepare everything although it became a bit chaotic when the time is nearing... haha! Surprise surprise for the bday girl once again!! :))) Who knows... maybe she happy until she cannot sleep that night. hahaha. =P So jan... how's today? Enjoyed and feel happy??? Heex. (just a side note: we killed 3 mosquitos in ur room ytd.. and there were more flying ard)

Dear girl... Hope u will be in ur best of health to take care of urself, ur family and also ur lovely children.. dun bully them lah... lol. And u have been a great friend all along!!! Doing up the bday boards for each of us... cracking ur head for ideas... And nv fail to entertain us. Oops.. that doesn't sound like a compliment. Nonetheless... U are a unique one to us... LOVE YA!! Happy 21st Birthday! And 祝你幸福~ :)))

National Day Holiday is here.

Oh.. It's National Day already!!!


The day started out really funny... i think i was practically dreaming lor... er-jie says she came to wake me up at 8.20am like that... asking me what time i working... er... she claimed that i showed her 10 fingers... which i have no memory of... and what more... that was the wrong ans. cos i was supposed to go work at 12. lol! but i rmb on and off i heard cruz and peifen on 933... talking abt how busy they were... trying to squeeze all the happening things into today's epi... And i rmb i dreamt abt the song 'zhao cai jing bao'... which they played on the radio for the excitement of toto today... then came er-jie in the dream too... (i think that's when she came to talk to me)... then a lot of strange things.


Ok... the main thing was... my plan of going for a morning jog AGAIN didn't work out. lol! =x I was plain lazy to get up lah... and the weather is too good to sleep in. HEE.


Quite a few days didn't go back to work... a lot of things changed... err.... Finally i think it's impossible to work there for long... cos seriously... only thick-skinned ppl is able to work there without feeling guilty over all the changes... haix.... after this month... i really have to think twice... haha.. Ya.. so that's abt the repair thing... Then now... becos of all these changes... even more paperwork to do... dotx. and i heard the full time says he everytime work until 9 or 10... It's like so kelian lah... i'm quite glad i could help in one way or the other..


Then went to watch The Mummy: Tomb of The Dragon Emperor with er-jie... Ok.... half of the time i couldn't really make out what the statue version of the emperor (Jet Li) was saying... After the movie i realised how he spoke... (by covering his mouth.. i tried.. and my sis couldn't understand me). Then... Michelle Yeoh's mandarin is like deteriorated... all not accurate le lor... must be stay in the west for too long... There were some funny parts.. Like Alex tried to speak mandarin to the emperor... took a while to realise he was speaking mandarin. =x And the terra cotta marching so cute lor...


By the time we watch finish... 11.30 liao lor! lol. So qiao... jon lau and his friends also watching same show in the same theatre. just that i think his neck aching after the movie ba... lol! =x


Ok!!! Lastly still want to wish Singapore a Happy 43rd Birthday!! :) Hope the nation will continue to prosper so that life will be better for everyone!!! (but hope that taxes and prices will not prosper) haha. So everyone.. Enjoy the weekend! :)

Start of Level 3

I think life is going to turn mundane soon... as least for this month... will be hearing either work or school.. thou amidst of many things that are supposed to be done.. =x

But i have returned to life of... when there's no school.. i'll either be at home or at work. And that's Boring! Just like today... lesson was cancelled... and i stayed at home the whole day... dunno what to do... so i slept away most of my time... till the extend that i think it was a bit overboard. lol. Hopefully things will get a little different as school term goes by.

Or.. Actually i should be already doing something more than just slacking when i'm home... cos we are supposed to prepare for our thesis already... sighx. So can someone still say it is a good choice to continue to level 3?? tsk tsk.

And so... the goal of the year is of cos to complete the thesis as early as i can... right? The thing is... I have no idea at the very moment what will be my focus and what topic should i work on... i only have 1mth to think abt it... and convince myself and the lecturer that there is enough substance to write abt... Obviously it's the first time i'm doing one... and it's like way beyond what i think i can do now... 3k used to be the limit.... now 10k?! Madness. I wonder how would my thesis look like at the end of it. lol.

Ya... time to brainstorm... but first i think i need to read more lor.. Level 3 is indeed different... Moreover... we are fighting with all the elites... have to really use my time wisely... choose my stuff correctly... and do my stuff properly...

Tsk tsk.. i can predict a stressful year ahead.

Closed door.. not-so

Wooh.... Finally the busy days are over... Actually it's really tiring.. eh.... although it wasn't really as bad as the first time i work for a fair... It still is tiring... esp. the last day... cos i ended up being one of the last to eat lunch. haha!!!

Something not that bad was to get to know more of the other part time ppl.... i think cos i dun run about... i really dunno a lot of ppl... i.e. the newer part-timers.... so ya... get to see quite a no. of them... plus a few long time worker also.... some who nv fails to suan me. -.-

Overall everything is ok... just that many things are not done to the ideal... esp. the publicity part. so in the end many things are not what we expected.. esp. in the sales sense and the welfare sense. haha! so too bad for this year lah... after all... i can understand cos not much nice designs... that's why it's a warehouse sales. and it's the first time i went without getting any bags. dotx. got a pair of shoes thou. haha. ok lah.. some parts were still fun... and i was a bit luckier cos i know cashiering. hee.

Eh... got a lot of things to say lah... but forget it... a bit lazy to elaborate anything else. haha. but whatever it is... kao shi li still better ba... haha!

Then today... wake up even earlier than the rest of the days although no work... went to nus to assist in the research again. Eh... i think i a bit nervous and also eyesight not good. Keep playing wrongly... i think they listen to the recording will think that i'm like playing another song instead.. lol! Then the music stand put so far and weird thing... once start each recording... the notes will go blur... so i could really hardly see the notes. and thus the wrong notes. Lastly is of cos due to the fact that i lack prac lah. haha! But anyway it's a quite interesting thing to do lah... Just that too long nv play violin hor... and somemore recording for a few hours... er... the area which i 'kiap' the violin pain and also handache. lol! =x

Came back and went for impromptu dinner out with family at boat quay... Hotstones. NICE! but ex. Thanks to da-jie for the meal... thou we were out to kinda celebrate her bday.. hee. But i think she haven't treat us meal for quite some time. Er-jie's been the one paying... or dad. That's the time i feel that i'm very fortunate to be the youngest. =P Ice-cream-ed after that at Central's Azabu Sabo. Milk tea ice-cream is nice! :)))

Ok... school is officially starting tmr... well.. good luck~! :)

Lastly... Happy Birthday to my Da-jie!!! Yeah... age we'll just leave it yea. haha! I think my wish for her is real easy... In my heart i will know. :)

Cool
