Reason for not blogging: My laptop was kidnapped to my new home. Having problems with wireless setup.
Result: Only my laptop can work in the house now. WHAHAHAHA.....

What happened from the time I last blogged:
Friday:
1) Got my results for the final semester. Didn't get to check it myself cause my laptop was kidnapped on 29th of May.
Satisfaction: None.
Reason: Didn't do well for the modules. Felt that I could have done better though.
2) Attempt to put make up since I am going into workforce soon.
Satisfaction: Not sure
Complains:
1-Look like I have been beaten up
Reason: Put on dark brown eyeshadows + black eyeliner (which kinda smurge for no apparent reason)
2-Look like those going to geylang
Reason: partly due to the clothes that I wore
3) Got a message from someone that I know of asking "how's suntec?" so I replied "it's okay :)"

Saturday:
Did up the cross stitch for the scorpio mini pillow. Haven't had a chance to take picture yet but I am damn proud of it. HAHAHAHA...... Went to my new house. hahaha..... My elder bro rented Indiana Jones (don't know which episode) just remembered that it was about a cult and the leader takes out the heart from the sacrifice. I remembered watching it when I was young as I was traumatised by the "taking out of heart" scene. Slept in new house.

Sunday: Went back to suntec since we were interested in the book exhibition but was terribly disappointed. Half of the exhibition was on children education kits and children books. Most of the other books were in chinese and the only place that caught our attention is times with a very small collection of books. Didn't get anything in the end and I think the exhibition shows that singaporeans adults no longer read english books since there is no longer a demand for english books in major book exhibition or they are too rich to want to go exhibition. Do find out the answer yourself.

Monday: Very bored so spent like 1 hour blogging in the midst of noisy polishing of the glass door.

Was sleepy throughout the day because I had to wake up early(like 8am?!!?!?!) to go to biopolis to get reagent and do a trial run at lab. I guess that god is strongly advising me to stop doing foolish things by sending horrendous huge rains to nus during lunchtime. Guess it's time to move on to find some proper temporary job. I personally find it hard to believe that it is that hard to find temp jobs although I admit that I am quite picky on what I want to work as. But ya..... I really don't work to work as tele surveyor, roadshows... erm basically sales because I don't like to persuade people to buy or fill up form. I mean, is it that hard to find office jobs like admin?!?!?! Haiz... suan liao le la... shall just continue to waste my time until the europe trip.

Things to do
1) Write resume!

Actually, that's the only thing to do so far.....
oh well... I guess I should be more explicit when writing future blogs because joanne knows my blog addie liaos!!! HAHAHAHA..... (as if I really care..... oops)

Yesterday went to the life science graduation dinner. Glad to be seated with yi hong and xiu wei cause I didn't think of who to seat with in the first place...... (you must be thinking that I am damn blur lor.... which I have to admit) Heehee..... Besides yi hong, xiu wei and me, there were another 4 guys that seated with us. Well..... I know the names of three of the guys through xiu wei and yi hong. Not very close that kind but know their names and went to ktv with two of them before. It was fun chatting with them and talking crap like don't wear white bikini or string bikini. HAHAHA...... (I guess it is hard to avoid such topics sometimes when you have more guys than girls)

I think the food was mediocre and the music is simply OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHO THE HELL WANTS TO LISTEN TO ALIEN SONGS when eating... they even got kitaro's songs playing.... I mean I like kitaro's songs but not in that kind of setting man! We didn't stay too long as there was no entertainment given and we think that they want to chase us out through usage of weird songs.

Initially, we thought of going to the bowling area because we heard that it's FREE!!!! However, upon reaching the destination, they told us it's for members only so we kinda gave up the idea of doing bowling (okay.... i know i know..... let me rectify that we didn't give up because we didn't have a choice to start with) The next plan was to go for ktv because xiu wei, yi hong and me are ktv fans!!!!! But we can't decide the location since everybody lives very far apart from one another SO we ALSO had to give up that idea. HAI>>>>>>>> Yi hong then suggested that we should do something extreme!!!! Ideas like watching R-rated shows, tamil shows, sentosa star gazing, clubbing and pubbing came up but unfortunately, all of them were rejected.... In the end, we decided to chill out at one friend's place and hopefully sing some ktv.. hahaa....

What greeted us was a golden retriever!!!!! And it is quite big in size.... I thought it was going to pound on everyone it sees because it seemed pretty excited when it sees us.... Was a little worried about that initially until we found out that he was quite a nice and obedient dog and only barked once throughout the time we were staying there. (pretty sure that it was a he) Although he had a DISTINCT smell on his body and his toy, it was quite bearable and the thought of getting a big size dog even came into my mind. (OH NO!!!!!!!!!!! chanting in my mind: I still love cats a lot!) Didn't really chill la cause I didn't touch a drop of water cause lazy to move..... But it was nice to just play abit of cards, talk abit, sing abit and play with dog.

A nice night and yi hong even send me back to my home! Really thanks a lot! Or else I think I will faint when I see the cab fee man~~~~ I shall also learn mahjong next time. kekee...... Really like this kind of gatherings!!!

异乡人 is a good book and I realised that I am really a Yi Su fan! HAHAHAHA........ If you are too bored (like me), you can read it. Hiak Hiak Hiak!!!!! The ending was kinda unexpected and the book made me ponder on the importance of relationship. Is it really that important? Is it really worth the effort to maintain a relationship? Sometimes, I really hope that I will be strong in this kind of thing. SHIT!!!!!!!!!! getting emotional again......

Anyway, I think I will start on 灵心。I hope it will be as good or even better than 异乡人.

Drank Choya today. It has been quite sometime since I drank choya. It still taste quite good but I felt that it was a little strong. Weird.... really don't know why I felt this way.

Finished two more agatha christie's books, namely One, Two, Buckle My Shoe + partners in crime. Although some may feel that agatha christie(AC) books are like for secondary school (which I also felt because I used to read AC's book during my secondary school), it was surprisingly captivating. (maybe due to the fact that I love detective stories) I really find that it's an easy read because I really hate to read books with cramped words + bombastic words. The pacing for both books are also alright although my preference would be One, two, buckle my shoe because Partners in crime is more of a collection of short stories. I would say that the former is quite a twist because I have correctly predicted the murderer for the first book that I read after watching the anime of AC's books. Guess there are more surprises awaiting for me~~~~

Starting on Yi Su's books AGAIN (guess must be TOO ENG LIAOS), 异乡人,or should I say half way through the story. It's quite exciting because I am guessing that the lead male character is an alien since that guy gives the female lead character weird flowers that the girl never seen before. i still don't know the ending (obviously) but then I think I am prolly right since I am a Yi Su fan. WHAHHAA...... Maybe I should start a Yi Su fan club and be the director of the fan club.

I may be starting on other stories that are introduced to me. For eg, the curious incident of the dog in the night time and short stories by Edgar Allan Poe (horror stories). I never really read horror stories before but I think it will be exciting.

p/s: I think too much time has given me too much imagination on EVEN stories!!!!! OMG...... I really should find a job soon and get my butt moving.

May 21, 2008

went through some rough patch recently and seriously considering whether I should continue on? I'm really quite confused as to what I should do. What difference does it make if I cry and if I don't cry, does that make me abnormal? Being faced with such dilemma, I don't know whether I should react logically or should I react in accordance to social norm.

I have made up my mind on going to uk. I hope I am able to find myself again in the midst of a different city. I hope that I will find the answer that I always wanted to know. I don't expect you to do anything. I just need some time to think over this again.

The Five Love Languages

My primary love languages are probably
Quality Time and Words of Affirmation.

Complete set of results

Quality Time: 8
Words of Affirmation: 8
Physical Touch: 6
Receiving Gifts: 5
Acts of Service: 3


Information

Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.

Take the quiz

oh ya.... I watched ironman the other day and found it quite nice actually. It's a show worth watching in my opinion. Maybe it's because I liked to watch the cartoon last time. I also heard that it follows the actual story. keke......

my grandma is also getting better. phew.....

May 08, 2008

It felt quite hollow when the exams finished. Not much to do, things to do, work to do.

Yesterday was quite a sad day cause my granny is hospitalised and that the doctors don't think they can do an operation on my granny due to her current condition. I felt upset because my granny is struggling to survive. My mum was also rather upset as she told me that time is not on my granny's side. She is also upset that her children (us la) didn't take time to go and visit my granny more often. Maybe I really did not do my part as a grandchild to go and visit her. Maybe I should just take out 2 hour to to visit my grandma. Maybe I should just not study for my exams and prepare for fyp presentation and thesis in order to see my grandma.

Maybe I really should have done that so that my mum will not be that upset.

May 06, 2008

I'm officially jobless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! finish my papers in one day! HAHAHA...... I'm just glad it's over for now. But from tomorrow, I have to start worrying about getting a job. Really need a job to sustain my expenses man...

Alot of planning will go on from tomorrow. Also need to collect transcript tomorrow man. haiz.... have to go back to far far nus and also need to collect my stuff from my lab. Really need to clear those things man.

Pretty tired. Shall update more later today

April 26, 2008

Have been thinking of what I should work as after I graduate and everybody seems to be demoralising me. hahaha...... I'm not sure why this happened too. haiz....

April 25, 2008

oh gosh~~~~~ I think I have been in slacking mode ever since the fyp submission. Buck up buck up!!!!!!!!!

Anyways, there was a "more fruitful than normal" discussion yesterday on the quotes of Oscar Wilde. I must say that there are some that I don't really understand (mainly due to my limited vocab) but there were some that are very true and funny.

e.g
"I can resist anything but temptation."
"Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much."

The ability of words to mean so much with so few words is amazing.

Not forgetting the 成语 that we always have to remember when we were young.

Chinese rules! HAHAHA.......I think I siao already...

Food for thought: Why do you read novels? For the plot or style? I am in for the former category because I like reporter style (aka Dan Brown). I'm sure that if I continue to persevere in reading, I might start to appreciate the latter which adds more pleasure in reading.

I shall end this post with a quote that reflects singapore's education system

"We teach people how to remember, we never teach them how to grow" - Oscar Wilde

whaos.... yi hong's blog inspired me to write~~~~ kekeke......

now have to prepare for the exams and have to start planning for the uk trip. i'm actually quite excited but I was hoping that a guy will go with us since I do think it's safer with a guy around la.... Hopefully, an angel will come down from heaven to help us out~~~~

Currently, i managed to find a roundabout trip on quantas at 1630 per person and that included tax~~~~ HAHAHA..... but I'm abit worried about the lodging and the work we can find there. I might start to find agencies where we can work in hotels or so.... I think it will be better that way cause some agencies did say that they would provide accomodations. so if we are able to settle that, it will be killing two birds with one stone. hiak hiak hiak.... Another thing that worries me is the amount of time we can spend there (due to the tuition grant).

Our current plan is to work for 2 months then travel europe for one month. But I think I will keep the planning of the travel to a later time when we have sort of settled the working part of the trip.

During the wait to go europe, I will be finding temp jobs in order to supplement my europe trip. HOpefully, I can find one straight after my exams. whahahhaa......

my thoughts are in random mode so don't mind me. hahaha.......

next on, marriage!!!! I haven't even plan anything on that! I think I am damn relaxed la...... However, I did set the age I want to get married..... which is around 26- 27 cause I want to do some travelling before I settle down. We do have thoughts to settle at punggol and yishun but the placement at yishun seemed abit erm....... ermm....... ermmmm....... haha... I think I want to do on site survey to know whether it's convenient.

Yi hong, jia you jia you.... having such a long relationship means something. I'm sure something good will turn out for both of you.
