Well, Hello There...

How true...

Monday, March 30, 2009 @ 12:38 AM


Unhappy memories are persistent. They're specific, and it's the details that refuse to leave us alone. Though a happy memory may stay with you just as long as one that makes you miserable, what you remember softens over time. What you recall is simply that you are happy, not necessarily the individual moments that brought your joy.
But the memory of something painful does just the opposite. It retains its original shape, all bony fingers and pointy elbows. Every time it returns, you get a quick poke in the eye or jab in the stomach. The memory of being unhappy has the power to hurt us long after the fact. We feel the injury anew each and every time we think of it.
Quoted from "Belle, A retelling of Beauty and the Beast" by Cameron Dokey

I left my laptop at XueNi's house!!! I thought I have left it on the bus when going home. I only realized I'm without my laptop when I reached home... So scary... What if I really had left it on the bus... Shit. My parents will scold me like hell. But phew, it's in her house alright. Now I'm laptop-less for a week. I only can get back from her on Saturday when both of us are free to meet up. I'm such a silly silly person... D:

I FELT LIKE A HANDICAP WITHOUT MY LAPTOP!! :\

Yipyips?? O_O

Friday, March 27, 2009 @ 11:13 PM


Ya, I know you all dying to see yipyip again!! So... more pictures of it! :D







And...

Two more new yipyips! :D They haven't got a name yet. Currently, one of them got a nickname called Mr. Sleepy. My mother's customer gave the yellow lovebirds + a big cage to her for free :3 The two were born on 25th Dec 08, Christmas day :D Anyway yipyip certainly seems very pleased!

Today I met up with Joshua, WeiLeng and ahsie to buy our graduation attires and collect our invitation cards. I wanted to take a M size but... they all insisted that I should take a S size :( $25 for it. Cheaper than other polytechnics :X

WeiLeng had to go off first for her driving stuff so the rest of us went to Woodlands Regional Library to borrow some books. ahsie searched for her books for such a long time! :X Then later, ahsie had to go for her tuition stuff. Joshua and I went to play DDR at the Causeway Point arcade. Wah! He cannot make it :X But I think with a bit of practice, he might be able to play better. Then I followed Joshua back to his house to complete my mission of transferring animes to him!!! And wah! I didn't know he is living at a condo or most probably I have forgotten about it and I get to see his so-called-annoying brother. I nearly didn't manage to complete my mission :@ Because of Joshua's silliness. Hmpt. He still owes me like 298 favors :P


Pink for SAS~


I don't want my parents to go... seriously. I don't think it's a big deal anyway. Diploma only... Not very great also.

Steamboat!!!

Wednesday, March 25, 2009 @ 2:51 PM


::22nd Mar 09::

Went to buy tickets for the movie, Push. The earliest timeslot, 11.25am. Luckily it was an old show and I was still able to get pretty good seats :) Watched the movie with Johnatton. After he went off, I've got totally nothing to do! Was supposed to meet my friends later at 5.30pm at Novena. But it was still early and I did not want to go home.


Thank you for the pink perler beads ghost :)

Sooo I decided walk from Vivo City all the way to Telok Blangh Community Centre!! I slowly took my time and walked under the blistering heat of the sun. When I reached there, I felt a huge sense of achievement :D! Feeling a bit auntie-ish, I went to check the notice boards to see if there are any interesting and affordable courses. Woot!! I saw one post saying "FREE hiphop dance workshop, 22nd Mar, 3pm - 4pm". I checked my watch and it's 3pm! I quickly call Puikwan to come down to join me :) And my, my! We had fun! At least I know I had.


Taken at the bus stop :X

After that, we took 124 to Novena to meet our friends for steamboat at Chin Huat Live Seafood Steamboat. So what's the occasion? It was actually to be a final meet up before Vanissa went back home in Philippines. However WaiKeong extended her stay here in Singapore. So we just meet up for the fun of it. And... it's pretty expensive... $24+? I don't remember.




Heh! I put a lot of vermicelli and veggies into the normal soup (chicken, i think) and Puikwan put a lot of seaweed in the tom yam soup. I didn't like seaweed and tom yam :X


Audrey the prawn murderer!! The prawns were still alive when Audrey ripped their poor tiny little heads off!








And here's everyone :)

Went back to the shopping centre to walk a bit before going home.




Haha! My turn to post these pictures of Lisa's trademark pose.
Seriously, everyone loves doing it! Learn it, try it and remember to show it to her ;)

Twin Regency and everything else

Sunday, March 22, 2009 @ 12:29 AM


::19th Mar 09::

Woke up to go jogging at Telok Blangh Hill Park with Puikwan. Jackie didn't want to go because her whole body was aching, she said. So I went up to meet Puikwan, together with my aunt. After jogging for 3 rounds, Puikwan received a call from Audrey asking us to go swimming at Wai Keong's aunt's condo. Woah! My swimming costume is still wet from the previous day swimming. So we decided we would use the gym there only. Went back home to wash up and head down to Tiong Bahru, Twin Regency Condo.



And... they kept persuading Puikwan and me to swim! Audrey even brought along an extra swimming 2-piece swimming costume for I-don't-know-what-reason. So I was forced to change into it. I only wore the pants as I have brought extra bra and shirt and not the bottom ones. For Puikwan, she brought extra for everything thus she can wear her clothes into the swimming pool.

After I have changed, I still don't feel like getting wet, neither does Puikwan. Joel, Waikeong, Audrey and Lisa continued persuading and urging us to swim by splashing water at us, etc. Finally, Lisa came out of the water and said in a stern voice, "You all better get into the water, or else I angry le hoh!" Wah I got shocked! O_O In the end, they pushed Puikwan into the water and threw me in as well. And I was still wearing my specs :\ Oh, might as well swim a few laps... So we swam, played and talked in the water. Later we head to the jacuzzi and sauna before taking turns to bathe. The toilet only have one bathing cubicle!!! :(


Everyone nicely washed up :)




Heh. I like this picture :)


______________________________________________


::20th Mar 09::

Training continues!! Jogging again at Telok Blangh Hill Park but this time with my mama and aunt! :D Waited for Puikwan and Jackie to get there, I walked with them for 4 rounds. Apparently, Jackie overslept and when she is ready to go, she can't find her running shoes D: Anyway once, they both reached, we run a few rounds before heading down to the Henderson Waves. There they also have the sit-up bench. So we did sit-ups. OMG! The bench is so hard! My spine hurts each time I get up. I'll need to train for that too... I don't think that they'll provide cushions and mats during the NAPFA... Continued walking until we reached Vivo City to have our lunch and went home.



Brought my youngest brother out to watch movie, "Paul Blart: Mall Cop" and play arcade during the late afternoon. I played Dance Dance Revolution! I love that game~ I managed to complete 4 feet difficulty but I couldn't make it through the 5 feet difficulty songs :( I'll have to practice more! But one game with 3 songs cost $1.40 T_T~ Next time bah...

Then later met up with Puikwan and Jackie again for movie, "Marley and Me". Oh god! The movie is so sad that I cried for 5mins!!! The worst thing is... I DO NOT HAVE TISSUE PAPERS! I have to keep wiping my eyes with my hands or my sleeves :\ Those of you who haven't watch it yet... Better catch it before it's gone!! Maybe I'll go read the book as well :D So that I can cry somemore.


______________________________________________


::21st Mar 09::

Woke up at 5am!!! Actually it's 5.30am :X I rolled about in bed for 30mins before getting up. And I dragged my feet to Republic Polytechnic for 'saikang' work that I signed up when I was still schooling. Project Heart. Giving free health screenings to poor people(?). And I still have to go down to SCHOOL! D: After waiting for like an hour there, we boarded up the bus and went to Blk852 Woodlands Street.

My assigned task was Registration. Meh. I didn't even turn up for the training because I was still at Malacca. I can't even do anything so I had that lame task instead. So I helped the old people register by writing their name, I/C number, address and so on. I had a serious language barrier. Either they are malay or indians... or my chinese sucks so much that they don't understand or I can't speak in dialects. ARGH! THE RAGE! It's confirm! I don't like old people, of course this excludes my grandparents.


So cute! But I don't know why his face expression like that one.

I'm glad when the job was done and we were dismissed. But I have to come back to another one T_T~ This time is door to door... Meh. I'm so gonna suck at that. Took group pictures. Didn't want to actually.





After this, I went to City Hall to meet Puikwan and head down to Suntec City Convention Halls for the JobsDB.com Career Fair. Missed meeting up with ahsie.



I felt that the whole thing is totally lame. They don't even have healthcare or science related jobs there. So we asked questions at the Navy booth to further our understanding about the process and stuff. And we went off to level 4 for the Food and Beverages Fair 2009. There is so much more fun than the Career Fair :D Definitely!

P/S: I saw Puikwan everyday for this week! O_O

Training/Sushi!~

Wednesday, March 18, 2009 @ 11:57 PM


Today I have begun my training session with Jackie and Puikwan. Swimming! It has been a long time since I last swam... I think got one year+... Anyway, I walked all the way to Bukit Merah Central to meet them at 9.15am. Then we made our way to Delta Swimming Complex. Meh~ Puikwan and I wore swimming caps that makes us look like bandits... Jackie kept laughing at us :\ No choice mah!! My hair too long~

So we began swimming~ Puikwan and I were so afraid of getting dark so everytime we finished half a lap, we'll hide in the corner of the swimming pool under the shade. There was one old man teaching a china girl how to swim. He pointed at Jackie (because she swam off first) and said, "That's the way to swim, your head must go in and out of the water" in chinese. Then next, he pointed at me and said, "Even that little girl knows how to swim." I Lol'd. I'm so old already still call me 小妹妹! Haha!! But I had to admit, I'm not that good at swimming. I kept breathing at the wrong time. Breathing in water through my nose... Breathing in through my mouth when I'm underwater... =__=

Anyway, my friends and I swam 8 laps in the end :X It's quite a huge achievement to me... Because last time, when I go swimming with my friends... I will only swim one lap and then play with water already :X Wah... So tiring! My arms and legs ached like no tomorrow. Skin darken a bit :\ and... hair that feels like hay! Blehx. Jia you bah... Tomorrow schedule is... Jogging! :D

::17th Mar 09::

Had a gathering with my secondary school friends :) Actually was supposed to meet at Harbour Front at 10am to go to Sentosa but it rained early in the morning (Actually I overslept, thus only seeing the sms at 10.30am :X Lucky me!). Only 6 went there, Lisa, Audrey, Joel, LiJun (Joel's friend), WaiKeong and Vanissa. So we had lunch at Sakae Sushi instead.

The rest, including me, were supposed to meet 3pm at City Hall MRT control station. We waited for the Sentosa people to arrive... for 1 hour! In the end, they called us to go eat first... There, we chose the youth buffet at $16.80 per person. And we starting ordering~ This was the fun part :D Shalee, Puikwan and me decided to order everything we want to eat first. Do need to wait so long for the food to come mah :) So... This was the results!


Everything came at one go! xD All of the sushi except for one or two are ours! Leaving no more place for Daphne and Alice's orders.




The Sentosa people, who came in half an hour later.


All guys table.


All girls table.


Ichigo Bliss for dessert :D


Our achievement at the end of the day! Excluding the all guys table's plates.
11 people managed to eat 60+ plates of sushi O_O
of course, that's happens when we have one or two bottomless pits :X

I never felt so bloated in my whole life! I tried to force the desserts, two ichigo bliss and one mochi, down but cannot. I ended up vomitting them out into the toilet bowl. My vomit tasted so sweet! :D And it looks like strawberry milkshake as well xD

After this, Masayuki came to join us and we walked aimlessly around Marina Square and Suntec City. The group got splitted up halfway and afterwards everyone head home or anywhere else they wanted to go. For me, I went home :)

New Desktop! :D

@ 12:20 AM


Yay! Now I can blogged about the present~ It's not exactly the present but it's not one, two weeks ago news. Last Sunday, after I came home from work. When I walked into my room... I noticed there were a lot of empty boxes in my room :\ But then when I turned on the lights... OMG! There is a black desktop on my table!!~~~ With a 19 inch monitor O_O


Compaq Presario SR5670C Desktop PC.




LOL! Comparing to my laptop... My laptop looks smaller~

With such big screen... Imagine if I watched animes or movies or even play MMORPG on it! Woot! It must be awesome :3 I have yet to attach and install the wireless network adapter, so no internet for the meantime. Yay! So happy! :D Thank you papa! :D

Genting/Malacca Day 5

Tuesday, March 17, 2009 @ 4:08 AM


::Genting/Malacca Trip 5/3 - 9/3::

Click on the links below to view the earlier days :)
Genting/Malacca Day 1
Genting/Malacca Day 2
Genting/Malacca Day 3
Genting/Malacca Day 4

Day 5 (9/3):

Woot! And it's the final day for my Genting/Malacca Trip! The day of going back to Singapore and leaving Malaysia behind. Woke up at 9am+... Correction. I was molested until I was fully woken up xD We took our time to get ready and went down for the breakfast buffet. This time, I didn't take a lot of food but there was still some wastage :\






LOL!~ Audrey is finally showing her true colours!!

After breakfast, we went back to the hotel room to change into our bear bear clothes.


Heh.

Next, we proceeded to the Baba Nyonya Heritage Museum, which is actually 3 houses combined into one. Pretty enjoyable place, even though it's just a short tour. The guide was really good at explaining the stuff there. Did you know that there's a peephole on the floor of the master bedroom? So that the owner of the house don't have to go down and see who is it! And if the owner doesn't like the person, he will throw water or even urine from the urinal pot down at the person xD Pretty funny, eh?


The entrance of the Baba Nyonya Heritage Museum.

After this, some went to the temple to pray again while the others went back to the hotel rooms to pack their packs and of course, double-check and make sure nothing is left behind. With such little stuff for me to pack, I was done in a jiffy and started playing with the decoration cloth on the bed. Puikwan joined in as well xD


Pretty? :X Looks like Audrey is getting away from us :\




Picture designs credited to Puikwan ;)
We were done and ready to go! My bags only grew fatter with no extra babies popped out :)

After that, we met up at the lobby, checked out at 12.30noon and requested for taxis at the reception counter to fetch us to Hotel Equatorial. That's where our bus will picked us up and drive us back to Singapore. So while waiting, we took pictures to further remember the place :D




We have been wanting to take this shot ever since we got there.



Heh. Did you know that some of my friends bought rubik's cubes in the Night Flea Market? Because they want me to teach them how to solve it. Hopefully I was alright at teaching them. Wasn't very good myself, but I'm going to master it no matter what :$ Don't want to fail Johnatton, my teacher :X







After waiting for quite some time, the taxis have not arrived! Most probably due to traffic jams in these small narrow streets. We gave up waiting and slowly made our way to Hotel Equatorial. Carrying all our heavy bags, we struggled to get there. It was so unfortunate that it RAINED when we were halfway there! It began as a light drizzle and slowly getting heavier and heavier! Didn't even have free hands to open the bag and get the umbrella inside it. Drenched, we were. But I found it fun :)




Drying up in the toilet. The toilets there were as filthy as the toilets outside in hawker centres. Apparently, Lisa got a cut on her finger trying to open her umbrella earlier.

Finally after much waiting for the bus to arrive and such, we were on our way back to Singapore at 2.20pm. The journey back home was long and pretty boring. Ate, read, slept. And finally after passing the Singapore Checkpoint, I felt a blanket of relief and safeness wrapped around me. I bet the others felt the same way as well. Reached Golden Mile Complex at 7pm and took a taxi back home.

And there's all :) I really enjoyed these five days trip with my secondary school friends! This is my first time going out of the country with just friends and no parents! The feeling totally rocks~ By blogging all the days down as detailed as possible so that next time when I looked back on these entries, I can relieved the wonderful experience I had with my friends. Thank you all for making the trip successful and so much fun.

Thank you readers for staying with me to the end of my posts :D
