It is an achievement for me that I have managed to help a student to improve from fail to B3. Yea!!! =D

Going to drop my students from the current 6 --> 2 as all the others are already having their major exams.... Hope the best for them!!

In the end, I did nothing at all..... But it's quite a nice feeling to slack around, do nothing, thinking about nothing and playing my restaurant city..... hahahaha...... Life is about enjoyment, work, or passion? I wonder???

Oh ya... Managed to get in contact with my friend... Glad she is alright although she must be going through a tough time with all the therapies that she needs to undergo to kill all the bad cells that is still within her. Jiayou to her!!!

Long weekends.... what to do??? maybe it's time to visit sasa or maybe a night out with red wine in hand.... I miss those days where I am doing practically nothing. (not that I have a lot to do now though)

I shall regain my freedom from work (for 1 day!! =P)

I think my stress level has gone up again because all the students I teach are going through either 'O', 'N', PSLE or streaming.

Sometimes, I feel that i am more stressed than them.... HAHAHA.....

Really thinking very hard on how to help them through one of the many hurdles in their lives but nothing seems to work out everytime. hahaha.....

Found mozarella cheese (authentic soft ones) and chocolate from Dove. Sasa if gonna be so excited.... I think I should give her a surprise someday by bringing the two items when I stay over at her house. heehee.....

While I was logging to use my blogsite as the link to other blogs, I realised the template I was using can't be used anymore... Oh well..... I shall just stick with the standard template that I have.

Just an update where I am not doing much..... Same old job, same old tuition..... everything is pretty much the same.... Erms..... maybe except my weight.... the pantry has such good snacks that I keep going to pantry to get some hot milk tea from lipton and some jap sesame snack..... really have to watch it for now man!!!

Oh ya....Yesterday had a really bad gastric though.... It's the first time in my life where I felt my limbs go soft and even feel like vomitting. Sad enough, have to leave the gathering first and didn't have my cheesecake. I think I should have some food in my bag just in case this happens again. (even though it conflicts the previous paragraph)

May be having a bbq soon.... Hopefully, it will materialise.... hahaha.... It's still in the planning stages though.... I am pretty excited actually. heehee.... :P

That's all for now.

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

Verdict: True. I don't know about people liking me though

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Verdict: I know I am serious but smart and determined? Hmm..... I like my small eyes!!!!

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

Verdict: Yes.... Indeed

The seriousness of your love:

You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.

Verdict: How do you fall in love beautifully???

Your views on education

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

Verdict: Unfortunately, I didn't do well

The right job for you:

You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.

Verdict: ???? I don't think they are giving me any answers.

How do you view success:

You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

Verdict: Hope so~~~

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.

Verdict: I think people who likes me will need to know this. HAHAHA....

Who is your true self:

You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.

Verdict: Confidence??? hahaha.....

Virgin Drive:

I have decided to blog my virgin drive today. Was driving mum and dad to sembawang today and when I started reversing from the parking lot, I reversed too earlY and nearly hit the car beside me!! Fortunately, I was going at a very slow speed and managed to stop in time. :) I realised that I always turned too late. :P

First vertical parking was quite alright, definitely above my expectation. The route to Bishan (tuition) was also smooth.

Also drove in the afternoon for lunch and there was a little hiccup as a motorbike was quite near my car just now. My parents were also a little worried about the speed I am going (being a new driver with 0 day of experience). They felt that it was too fast.. hahaha.... (when I was going at 70km/h 0_o!!!) However, my car slanted when doing the vertical parking at home and my dad helped me correct the slanting problem.

It's quite a stressful but I have fun. Definitely will drive in the future. Hopefully can drive on my own soon~~~ =P

The thing to announce is that I have PASSED my driving test!! hahaha..... Was really a surprise since I heard that normally people don't pass the first time and I am beyond stress!!!! The instructor that taught me before the test ask me to stop sighing and the warm up instructor said the same thing!!

But the tester looks really nice so I had a lot more confidence and didn't do any mejor mistakes. *Heng*

Anticipating to have my virgin drive today!!!

Life can change this fast and I suddenly understand why people called life unpredictable.

It's really upsetting when one is healthy one day and passed on on the other. I really feel the need to live life to the fullest. I pray that my auntie and cousin will find peace and really hope that things will get better for the big family as a whole.
Last year had been a tormenting year for the family and I hope it won't get worse this year.

Sometimes, I feel the need to educate people on how to handle emergency situations even when I do not know much. Each passing moment means life and death in this kind of situation and one must react the right way so that to have a better chance of survival. I felt that something can be done to prevent all this but it was too late.

It seemed unreal but at the end of the day, you would realise that it's not a dream. I cannot imagine how everybody will overcome this in the end.

I really hope it is all but a dream.....

i am so happy that I can no longer contain my happiness. I have a new netbook!!! dell mini 10!!!! HAHAHA....... so happy!!!

oh my god... it has been nearly one month since I blogged.

Everything is going quite alright..... I have started working in a super low level job but aiya.... I think I will just enjoy the moment of doodling with calendar and uploading pictures. Slacker's job!!! I got so many things to buy lo but insufficient funds to do so.

Tuition is piling up like crazy cause I have like 5 tuitions squeezed into the 2 miserable weekends but two of the students want their June holiday, which is essentially good for me because I can kind of rest for around one month. Cousin is going to join in soon (which makes a total of 6 tuitions!!!) and
something really touching happened:

The mother of one of the students actually messaged me today to thank me for teaching her son as his grade improved quite a lot from the first term. I can sense a tinge of relief from her and I'm really glad that my efforts paid off.

Started drawing anime eyes and I really love what I drew!! I hope that the fire won't dwindle!!!

Reading the assassin's quest by Robin Hobb. I think I found a treasure!!!

Lastly, TP on 14/7. * praying super hard to get a pass *

Summary = Super busy with no life but SURPRISINGLY fulfilling

Happy Labour Day in advance!!! ( for those who are working/ studying)

Anyways, many decisions were in place for me to make these days and I guess I have made the best decision based on probability.

I always told myself that I should be more realistic in expectations and not think of the impossible. I do feel it is a rare opportunity that would probably not come again but I guess I should just move on. I shall not regret the decision that I make even though I really wanted it but can't have it due to the situation.

That's all.... more to come when I feel a little better

To guys who always complain that girls are spending too much money on saloon to do their hair

Why does head hair grow to great length whereas body hair doesn't? Nobody knows exactly, but some anthropologists believe the purpose of long head hair is to give you something to tie ribbons in. No kidding. Quoth one, "the functional significance of long head hair is almost certainly adornment, providing for the 'sexual selection' that Darwin correctly argued was a potent factor in the evolutionary process." In other words, when you drop sixty bucks at the beauty parlor, don't feel guilty--you're helping to advance the species. [1]

hey guys, been a seriously long time since I updated my blog.

It's not been a great month that has passed and I have to say that I may really need to go and pray to guan yin one of these days. I guess life is like that, there are ups and there are downs. It's how you face it that is important. (sorry arh.... I think I am self psychoing again)

Anyways, I will update if something interesting popped up. (Seriously, nothing interesting has turned up recently. Maybe I should really go and catch movies or something like that)

was asked by my brother how to spell melancholy and he pronounced it as "miloholic". haha..... I sort of know what he meant but I didn't really know the word and spelt it as mechanholy. Seriously dumb!!! hahaha....

Oh ya... Another update is that I finally went to long bar to throw peanuts. Unfortunately, Singapore Sling is not as good as I thought it would be. Maybe I would try their Screwdriver someday.

I have been taking driving lessons for the past few days and it is progressing at a speed slightly under my expectation. Went up a kerb (shit!) and seriously hope to better negotiate that bend better next time. The instructor asked me how do I differentiate a main road from a side road and I randomly guessed it correctly. Haha.....

The instructor actually asked me to go up to 4th gear on the road, much to my surprise, because it's only my 5th lesson. Certainly hope to get my licence quickly so that I can settle this once and for all. I want to drive up to m'sia as soon as possible!!

I have also been thinking what do I want to do in life. The job applications to labs are not yielding any replies and I am really getting disheartened by it. I am no longer sure whether this is the path that I should to take. With no opportunities in sight, I feel that this might be an indication that I am no longer a suitable candidate for lab work. I'm not sure whether the economy situation actually lowers my opportunity to get a job or is it just not the right time?

I am just glad that I still don't need to ask my parents for assistance with regards to this situation. I should be more optimistic, I should have more confidence.....

Went to meet sasa and friends at her house and it was really very nice to just meet them and have fun drawing!! I seriously don't know how to draw anything that are nice but the ability to just be able to draw is really quite a feeling.

THe most most most important thing is that sasa made a folio for me!!!! It is really damn nice and I really appreciate it a lot!! Thanks girl for making this trip such a great one and hope to meet up soon!!!

Maybe I shouldn't have stayed.

Just went to ktv with my mum!!! haha.... It's her first time there and I can really feel her anxiety while singing. There will be more sessions to come (maybe with my dad too). The unagi meal was not too bad although I only ate the unagi and the jap rice~~~ hurr hurr..... (hate the mini octopus and the cai xin looks really dubious!!)

Forgot to buy the cat treat for ah mao! It's getting bigger and rounder each passing day!






Was given a site on how to make skittles vodka and I'm really not sure whether it's nice and whether I should make it!! hahaha..... Thus, I went to search on the net and it would seem to me that it should be quite a sweet drink(which made me think of sasa and jt) + refreshing~

watched underworld yesterday and felt that it is not good. I prefer valkyrie in comparison. i felt the movie was more of a story telling or should I say explanatory movie. so if you are an Underworld fan, then I would recommend that you watch it lo~~~ I am thinking whether I should watch the curious case of benjamin button since I have heard quite abit of raves about it.

Oh ya.... went to eat at an open concept "restaurant" and the moment I sat down, there is a cockroach behind me. Not that I am very bothered by it but I am not sure whether I want to disclose the name of the outlet as it may ruin its reputation. The mushroom soup didn't taste too good (because it tasted like cornstarch soup) but the main course is not too bad ( which made me more reluctant to let you guys know the name of the place). However, if you guys are clean freaks and wants to be forewarn, just ask me. kekeke.....
