Flight back to Shanghai

2012-01-21T23:32:00.000+08:00

It was really very difficult booking a train ticket back from Xiamen to Shanghai during the weekends. Thus my colleagues, Shirley and Gidman, and cousin suggested that I take a flight. Then I applied leave from Mandy and she granted me permission to take 3 days unpaid leaves from Sunday to Tuesdays. I will be taking HO1190 flight from Xiamen at 10.30am to Shanghai Pudong International Airport at 12pm. If time permits, I will rush to office at 2pm as that day I will have my company’s Dinner and Dance (: My first time taking an 8-hour train and flight ALONE.

Jiayou Kathy!

Today Gidman and I worked half day, till 12pm. After work we went to meet the 5 housemates for lunch before going Qi Pu Lu to shop, it is very much like our Far East or Bugis Street. I bought 5 pairs of shoes and about 10 sets of clothes. This is the goods I bought today, Jacq was shocked at my craziness over shopping, so did the guys! (Total I spent 455RMB only) . This is the place shoppers should visit! I will definitely go back again! Alright, time to go pack my luggage! Tomorrow I will be going out with my housemates to the train staion together at 7am.They are going Hanghai at 9.22am, but I scared I may not find the place so going earlier with them then wait at the train station for an hour :)

Ticket to Xiamen

2012-01-18T23:00:00.000+08:00

I came to Longyang Station to book the train ticket to Xiamen on Sunday. However before that, I fell at the train station as I didn’t notice a plastic bag on the floor. It was super embarrassing! Then at Dongchang Station, while walking to the train station, I nearly knocked down by a motor bike! Lunch time, I went to buy return train ticket (planned to come back on Saturday as work resumes on Sunday) because I forgot to buy in the morning! But I was told that the maximum number of days we can purchase the ticket is 10days. Today is 18^th Jan, so I assume I can start to buy the return ticket. However after losing my way and walking in the raining for 40minutes, I was told that the tickets are not opened yet. And he raised his voice when I asked a question. I dropped one tear on the spot and cried again in the office when my colleagues showed me concerns. I felt so useless. Last week I always went to work and lunch with Gidman, but this week he had been busy with the showflats with boss. Then I also didn’t go for lunch! He made fun of me, saying that I am so blur, how to go to Xiamen alone! This is gonna be my first time travelling alone. Wish myself a safe journey!

First post in Shanghai

2012-01-15T22:52:00.000+08:00

I have been here for about two weeks already. I am starting to get used to the freaking cold weather here.
Usually daytime the temperature will be around 0 - 5dc, at night it is really cold if there is wind. And because of that, I fell sick from Friday to today. I had high fever of 39dc, whole body ached and dizzy. I teared a little and for a moment, regretted for coming to Shanghai. But well, now I am feeling better already so don't worry friends.

03-Jan-2012 Tuesday

After we reached Shanghai Pudong International Airport at 5am, on 3rd Jan, we waited for the others who took other flight till around 7am then headed to NTU GIP office. There we had wifi and awesome breakfast. After about two hours of dreadful yet redundant briefings, we were dismissed at 1030am, on our own for 6 months! Then my housemate, Benjamin's uncle sent one driver to bring us to Carrefour to buy whatever things we need. There we bought some household products, quilts, food etc. Each spent about 900 RMB. Then we also get one local sim card, however my Blackberry cannot be used for China Unicom’s data plan. I can only make calls but not online. Yet I paid 126RMB for the package for one month. So Gridman, my housemate cum colleague lent me his old IPhone 3S. I then put the sim card in and it works for data plan. So I quickly downloaded Whatsapp but it cant log in using my Singapore number because it would need a code that will be sent to my number. So I have no choice but to use china number for whatsapp on IPhone. As for my BB, I can still use the Whatsapp using my Singapore number but can do so only when there’s wifi.

04-Jan-2012 Wednesday

The next day we woke up for lunch at nearby eatery and everyone called home quickly as the previous night we all had difficulties trying to fight with the poor network coverage in our house area here. We had to stand at the balcony to make phone calls. Pathetic much! I called back Singapore for less than 10 minutes in total, and texted 2-3 SMSes. For just that, my card balance dropped from 200RMB to 30 RMB (less 126 monthly fee). It means I spent about 8SGD. That is freaking expensive. Luckily after that we were told that tomorrow the internet will be done.

05-Jan-2012 Thursday

I met Yiyao at Nanjing Road for dinner and passed him the things he asked me to buy from Singapore. After the dinner at ??, we went to Wai Tan, near to Peace Hotel there for some night sceneries. It was a very nice place for tourists but the wind was so strong that we left after taking a few photos. He also brought me to a few places to shop, however as I have not enough RMB with me, I didn’t dare to buy many things. Also since I already have enough winter wears, I didn’t buy much things. Then that night, when I tried to use the internet, it was very unable, especially when I was in the bedroom. So in the end, gave up and went to upload photos to my laptop. Again, the network is too slow and unstable that I gave up and slept at 1plus.

06-Jan-2012 Friday

Today, we the housemates went to shop around, Jacqueline and I each tailor-made one set of suit that costs us 500RMB each. Not sure how the quality like, will be getting it next Friday, hope it will not be disappointing. After walking for a while, we went home at 9plus as the rest of the housemates are going clubbing except me. They kept asking me to go along but I just don’t have the mood to join. Plus mummy and BF asked me not to go, so I stayed home.

I webcam with Dardar, Yang and Family. However as the internet was not so stable yet, so I came to the living room to use the lan cable. And dumb me, don’t know how to on the heater, till I was so cold and caught a cold. That night after I bathed, my eyes and body were super hot all of a sudden. I took a temperature and my body temperature was 39dc. I took 2 pills and slept at 2plus. At 4plus when the guys came back from clubbing, my temp dropped to 38.4 when I measured again. Then my roomie Jacq gave me pills to eat before I went back to sleep again. Then she put towel on my forehead and took care of me that night. THANK YOU DEAR!

07-Jan-2012 Saturday

I texted Huijie and Ruoxuan that I am sick, then they came to see me without telling me. I was so touched then quickly woke up upon seeing them. Had a quick lunch at nearby eatery and then walked around the neighbourhood with them. They left at 4plus then I went home and took a nap again. Anyway I felt sorry towards Yiyao, for cancelling the museum trip with him.

08-Jan-2012 Sunday

I met Monkey happily to get my money at People’s Square Station. However, when he passed me the money, they were all SGD notes!! The exchange rate is pathetic, only 4.5. If I exchange $1000 SGD will lose about 400 RMB, not worth doing so. So I didn’t exchange. After Monkey and his friend left at 5pm, I shopped awhile myself there. Then soon after they left, one local guy approached me and asked me for number. He said he had been noticing me since I took a photo just now and he said I am very pretty, wanted to be friend with me. Of course I rejected him and then immediately went home for steamboat with the guy housemates. Well, while shopping with Monkey and his friend, we saw this:

It is something very amazing that allows users to scan and redeem unlimited discount vouchers from these machines. All you have to do is to purchase this device at 20rmb which has no expiry date. I though it is something wonderful and cool! (But till now I have not used it much. Didn’t use any of the vouchers printed so far.) I 'ditched' Yiyao again (He invited me to his colleague’s place for steamboat) and met Monkey as I thought he was giving me RMB. I needed cash urgently!

09-Jan-2012 Monday

First day of IA! Super sleepy as I couldn’t fall asleep the whole of yesterday night. We took around 45 minutes from my house to the company. Our working hours are 9-6pm. I got my own desk but laptop was not really yet today. My supervisor, Mandy gave Gidman and I a few floor plan drawings to read. But it was so bored and we finished within a few hours. Sleepy and bored to the max! Lunch time, Shirley, Mandy and Ellin treated Gidman and I to dim sum lunch. We wanted to pay but they said that was supposed to be the ‘Kai Gong Treat’. Felt so paiseh letting them treat. Anyway, got home after work, thought can sleep earlier but in the end slept at 2plus again. Pray for tomorrow.

10-Jan-2012 Tuesdays

Second day of IA, I am still sleepy and bored. Nothing to do again but I can use the internet as I brought my own laptop today. Yicheng has nothing to do in his company so he was given paid leave from today till Friday. How I wish my company is as kind too! After work went to meet the other two housemates with Gidman (Ben has to work OT so didn’t join us). We had simple noodle at Jia You Hao Mian. Not too bad, the price is reasonable too. This dinner costs a toal of $36 RMB. It is like Ajisen in Singapore. We took a few photos at the place nearby and went home. The weather is colder tonight, and my cough is getting worse. Luckily the fever has subsided.

11-Jan-2012 Wednesday

I have my own company laptop, DID phone and a cabinet. This is the photo of my desk:

Behind me is Avivva, on my left is Shirley, in front of Shirley (Diagonally infront of me is my supervisor Mandy), diagonally behind me is Gidman. Today I did nothing still, just surf the net and chatted with friends on MSN and Skype. Time pass a bit slow on my side. Finally it’s the end of work, I went to meet Yiyao near my company here, Shangcheng Road Statio. We took a while to find the place we want to eat. In the end chose steamboat at the plaza (forgot the name) opposite Times Square, my workplace. It is always nice seeing him, someone I am comfortable with. We were both tired after a long day’s work. Thus went home after the steamboat without delaying.

12-Jan-2012 Thursday

Accumulated from the last few days’ lack of sleep, I was super sleepy today. Dozed off at work as I have nothing to do till 4plus.We went for meeting with Mr Hong and the team at 3plus and finally, some tasks were assigned to us. Then we started to work on them which kept us occupied and felt less sleepy. After work I quickly went home, wanting to grab a nap. Gidman asked me to join them for dinner, but I just feel like going home. I prefer to eat at home, especially in winter time. Then I cooked the leftover food from yesterday’s steamboat with yiyao. Cooked them quickly and ate before going in the room to do my own stuffs. Slept at 12plus but still, very tired.

13-Jan-2012 Friday

TGIF! My housemates all not working today except Gidman and I. They told their supervisor that school has started (When school starts on 2nd March, we will study on Fridays (full day) and Saturday mornings. Attachment will be from Monday to Thursday 9-6pm). The day passed by SLIGHTLY faster as we got work to do for the whole day. After work Gidman and I went to meet other course mates for steamboat (NOT AGAIN?!) at Xiao Fei Yang. We took the train and reached there at 7plus. Then the whole group, 9 of us waited till about 8pm before we were brought to a function room for steamboat. The dinner was great though I had steamboat for three consecutive days. But due to the big group we had, its easier to eat steamboat. Then took a few photos with HJ and RX and of course others too. Then we four (Ben, YC, Gidman and I) cabbed back at 10plus. Not long after bathing , I went to sleep. I hope I can wake up early tomorrow so I can shop more with Yiyao! Can't wait!!!

14-Jan-2012 Saturday

Firstly, Happy Birthday Yiyao!

I woke up late, and met him an hour later than the agreed time. Reached Nanjing East at around 1130pm. Then we went to find China Construction Bank to open an account so that my uncle can transfer me money. We took quite some times to find the bank before heading to Cheng Huang Temple for shopping and lunch. It was raining non-stop the whole day, and that made photo-taking and shopping a total headache. We dined at this random xiao long bao restaurant and its totally a wrong decision made. We ordered a few dishes and it costed 100rmb. The tang bao (soup bun) is the worst! 22 rmb/piece yet it has nothing but soup inside! I fought with Yiyao to pay the meal! In the end I won as I told the cashier that, in Singapore, if the birthday boy pay for the meal then the restaurant’s business won't be as good as before. Then the lady took my money instead but I doubt she believe me. Hahahaa. We walked around the place for about 2 hours. Yiyao and I were not feeling that well after that! We were both feeling dizzy and for him its like food poisoning. He looked pale and he kept saying he’s fainting anytime. My hands were so warm but not his. That scared me very much. Thus I held his hands the whole night to give him warmth. Of course the sensible Kathy quickly stopped shopping and then we took train to Nanjing Dong Lu to get gifts for Yiyao’s friends. We spent almost one hour in Metersbonwe. It was having sales on fifth floor. I bought a travel bag for brother. Then after that we went to Yue Lai Hotel for dinner. There we had 4 dishes but we paid about the same price as the lunch. The food was much nicer than the lunch food! I went out before the food were served to get Yiyao a mini cake. It looks ordinary but tasted great! A bit expensive compared to the food we ate.

Anyway, Monkey kept calling me on my mobile but I didn’t pick up. Sorry cant meet you, maybe tomorrow?

Happy Birthday again Yiyao! Hope you are feeling better no.

15-01-2012 Sunday

I slept till 2pm and woke up alone in the house. My housemates went out so I started to webcam with friends. I thought I will be meeting Monkey for dinner, but in the end it was cancelled. I love it because I really enjoyed the moments spent at home talking to my loved ones. I also called my relatives and cousins in China. Then suddenly I missed home so much! I wonder how my family and friends doing in Singapore. I miss them a lot.

I told boyfriend and T.T that I cried because I missed home. Then they thought it was because I stayed home alone and kept asking me to go out meet friends. But I guess not, as I have been here for about 10 days already, I really miss home! Then I called xiaoyi and I cried again. Then he persuaded me to go Xiamen to find them. I thought for a second and agreed. Then he taught me how to book train tickets and etc, will go and do it soon.

Dear all, I Miss you guys!!!

My China mobile number is: 188 1741 2748 (You are welcome to Call/SMS me), but you guys can still whatsapp me using my Singapore number :)

Once again, time flies, as we sent away 2011 and welcome 2012, it means, five years already.
I spent the last day of 2011 with my parents at home.
Boyfriend's friends went to his house to play cards, sis and bro went town for count down. I am lazy to go out partly because I need to pack my luggage as I am flying tomorrow!
Yes, one last day in Singapore before I spend six months of life in Shanghai.
Excited yet emotional.
The future is rather uncertain for us now.
Hope everything will be better in 2012!

聖誕的感動

2011-12-26T02:47:00.004+08:00

今天是2011年的圣诞节
现在的我刚到家载着一肚子的感动回来
我不知道为什么我会这么幸运有这么多人疼爱我保护我
不知道从何说起但是就是很感动圣诞的感动

手里拿着好几样东西两件礼物卡片信与草莓
Let's discuss about the christmas present which acts like gravity, forced my tear out
收到圣诞礼物的时候我大笑几声
小包包好可爱是我中学时曾用过的猫咪pouch
送礼物的人要我打开每个compartment
里面装着不同的药感动的不只是这个
而是药上贴着的贴心post-it
他把每种药的功效与吃法清清楚楚地写下来
当我在读的同时他还在旁边重复一遍
再三嘱咐我不舒服时一定要记得吃
我有点忘了他说了什么了因为当时的我早已热泪盈眶
他好细心为我设想周到让我感到很内疚
送给他的圣诞礼物远远不及他为我付出的一切
谢谢你

生日礼物是SK的星星 ear stud 上面还有几颗小钻石
bling bling的灯光下很美
但是我戴上去就还好因为我穿着家里衣服不配
很sweet的礼物就是觉得让他花这么多钱不好意思
我要的不多
It is always the thought that counts, I dont need expensive presents
All I ask for is that you will always be there for me, even if you have a girlfriend

要上楼时我抱了他一下告诉他我们一辈子都是好朋友
他是我至今除了男朋友以外抱过最多次的男性朋友
因为你值得

回到家门口还没等家人开门就迫不及待打开信
简单的内容熟悉的字体让我倍感窝心
請容許我小小的骄傲因爲有你這樣的朋友

到了上海我一定會好好的照顧自己
不讓你們大家擔心所以請你也不要擔心我好嗎
我一定也會像你們想我那樣的想你們
你也是時候長大了 17.5嵗了要學會吃飯學會照顧好自己
別讓我在上海還要擔心你這樣很自私類
Promise?

Someone said he can sense that I was not cheerful today (18 Dec 2011)
I denied because I was not bothered with anything at all.
Seriously nothing.
But I think I am not VERY happy, I didn't know why also.
There is no reason for me to be sad about too.

WHY???? PUZZLED.

Perhaps, I am just too bored today?
I didn't know why my mood can be so easily affected tonight.
Sorry for the bad temper.

Hui's Wedding. 16 December 2011

2011-12-17T22:39:00.003+08:00

Finally, it was my sister's wedding yesterday. I woke up at 6am sharp then quickly went to bathe and changed into the bride’s maid’s pink dress. Did a light makeup on my face then proceed to help the other sisters with the preparations for the game. For about an hour plus, we were all posting for the videoman and cameraman to take photos/videos. I think we can all be actresses after the wedding. The Singapore SNSD (this is what the brothers called us) :p

DIY corsage for all the sisters (:

At around 8.30am, cars’ horns can be heard, that’s when the 10 brothers and bro-in-law reached my block. The ten brothers dressed in purple while the groom in silvery grey suit. Looking down from the kitchen window, I felt so nervous, as if it was my own wedding. All the six sisters then divided into two groups, 3 colours each. Cuixia and I wore pink, she preferred to stay inside, so I was outside. Aina and Shihmin both white, Aina was outside. Ferlyn and Mandy yellow, Mandy was outside.

Car plate no for people who may need (like mummy) :p

Then together with Mandy and Aina, we three were supposed to spy on the brothers, make sure they don’t play cheat. The game started after Shihmin’s open speech. However, the whole game lasted about 45 mins only because the guys were late so we have to rush through some games. But in the end managed to asked for 3 ang baos, total about $700, each of the six sisters got $120. Feel sorry for bro-in-law and sis. HAHAHA.

After kissing goodbye from my parents, the newlyweds left for the groom’s house at Bedok. There, they spent another 2 hours or so to ‘jing cha’ to the big group of relatives. Then jie changed and we drove to Pungol waterfront for some shoots before heading to my house for another round of tea ceremony. Luckily our side has very few relatives, so the process was much faster.

Just when everything has done, one of us realised that my room was locked! All the sisters left their bags in the room. Our keys were in the bags that were left inside too! Then everyone helped to search for spare keys but to no avail. Jie then called the professional to come to open the door for us. We waited till around 3pm while other sisters left home first. The mechanist took a speeding 4 seconds to open and it costs $40! Perhaps I can consider this job! LOLX. I bathed and went for make up at NICE. It was quite a professional one. $25 for make up, $25 for hairdo. They came to fetch me from Northpoint and off we went to Furama Hotel at around 4.30pm. Reached there at around 5pm, resting in the hotel rooms watching sister and mum doing their make ups. Then the solemnisation started at around 6plus. Nicki and I went to rehearse emceeing after that to ensure everything was alright. Franking speaking I was not nervous at all, though I have no such experience before. Hong and yang’s goodluck SMSes made me more confident, seriously.
(*very sad as I was too busy to take photos, passed my camera to dardra, but he took none :( SAD AND ANGRY!)

As usual, a Chinese wedding dinner never starts before 8pm, ours 8.30pm. The whole process was smooth, emceeing was a fun experience. I am quite satisfied with our performance given that we only confirmed the script and rehearsed once a day before the wedding. Glad to hear so many positive comments after the event. Many of my relatives kept praising us siblings, saying how pretty and handsome we were. I know I am glam, thank you very much! HAHHAHAHA :p

Some of the brothers stayed in one of the hotel rooms after that, but not we sisters. Together with boyfriend and some friends, we went to Marina Bay Sands for a stroll after the dinner and got home at 1am. I dozed off while waiting for my turn to bathe. Dardar left to find his friends and said will be back soon. He left all his stuffs in my house, and he had no keys to go home. However I didn’t sense the phone vibrations from his calls. In the end, when I woke up it was already 2.45am, he came, bathed and slept without mentioning anything. This morning, while having lunch, I asked why he was so late yesterday, only then he said he waited for me for an hour to pick up his calls! He told me that he was cold and urgent for toilet, but didn’t want to wake my family up by pressing the door bell. So he waited at the playground under the block. I checked my phone; really shock to see that there were 56 missed calls from him! I felt so bad and xinteng him fighting against bladder, against cold, against sleeping monster. Such a silly boy!

I am really very very tired, cannot walk anymore. Then somemore volunteered to carry me: only 5mins :(

In the end I just took off my heels and walk along the street!

After yesterday, I really think that getting married can be extremely tiring!

Congras Yahui and Pangyong, may you enjoy everlasting marital bliss.

Thy beautiful misunderstanding

2011-12-12T23:31:00.005+08:00

Thy beautiful misunderstanding;

I am glad that it happened .

Typed a one page long essay initially but then in the end decided to replace with simple and short sentences.

有些故事不必說給每個人聽
用簡單的言語解開超載的心
有些情緒是該說給懂的人聽

To this very special friend in my life, whom I cannot afford to lose:

邱仲洋，你是我最珍貴的人，我會用一輩子來關心你，保護你，愛護你。我們友誼長存，至死不渝（:

2011-09-30T14:21:00.003+08:00

I was still lying in my bed, feeling dizzy when I saw your video tag.
Seriously I have to admit, I was completely touched, emotionally unstable.
Then, I felt the strong urge to do something about it and not to let nature take its course anymore.

There are few things I need to make it clear to you:

Firstly, I understand very much that it was too petty and insensitive for me to angry with yang for so long.
I know it is my fault but, definitely not like what you think, "摆布人们情绪的作风"
I have never ever thought of doing so at all.
And I thought having chatted with him all night long at Fruit Paradise on Saturday night was rather obvious that I was not really angry with him?
I have also never, like what you think, enjoy toying my friends' emotions.
The one and only one was my boyfriend.
You scolded me when I told you that years back, but I didn't do it on any particular friend.
But after getting scoldings from you that time, I have not done any again.
You can check with my boyfriend if you doubt me.
Doing this on boyfriends is like a girl purposely make the boyfriend jealous.
The same reason, not right but understandable.

Secondly, that day during the photo shoot, you were envious of the Caucasian model and said words that showed low level of self-esteem, I consoled you in a positive way but you took it as I was being sarcastic.
Then I immediately said if that was what you thought then I had nothing left to comment.
During our dinner with yang, I complained again to him, you heard and was laughing too, remember?
If you do, then why still said :"等到现在才一副委屈地在博客上面说啊"
I thought I did it immediately, for twice somemore, not wait till now!?

Thirdly, You said I :"做错事还哭哭啼啼，搞得被害人好像变成罪人一样。"
If you understand me enough, you should know that I can't control my tears, not because I wanted to let everyone think that I am pitiful or whatever.
I remembered once I called you cry rivers of tears just because Pudding bite me.
I told you that time, I just cannot control my tears.
I really thought that he knew what was going on then!
And all along I was not really angry with him, I was however, only after reading his blog entry.

The above are the few things I really can't bring myself to comprehend in your situation as I really don't know how much you know about this incident.
However whatever it is, I admit that it all started with my childishness to be angry with yang.
I have apologized to yang for many times already because I really didn't expect it to turn out like that.
It is also my fault forgetting to update you with our progress when you were really concerning for us.
I am sorry about this, it was simply my fault, really.
I have neglected your feeling in this issue.

Yesterday I met two groups of girls because they really concern about me when they saw my tweets and blog entry.
They are my friends, siding me is inevitable.
Then they said things about you, I felt unfair to you, and told them how well you treated me usually.
I know, I am not really angry with you, its just more of I don't like people to accuse me for things not of my intention, especially from you, because you are of unestimated worth to me.
And also, first time encountering this type of problem, I don't know how to handle it.
I am scared.

When I saw your video just now, and I was so touched at that moment that whatever I am angry or sad with were all gone at once!
My memory flashed back to the days when we shared our secrets and had fun together!
How wonderful are those days those times those invaluable friendship!
I have neglected my studies for almost a week due to this, so just don't bring it up again ok?
I hope everything will be better.

"我希望我還是你的司機當你迷失方向
還是你的醫生當愛讓你中傷
不介意變成烏鴉阻擋你太衝動危險地飛翔
更可以一直是白痴陪著你講夢話繼續限制你心魔被解放
但是，我可以不當你的嫁妝嗎？
因為我還要嫁。
我只想當你最寶貝的好朋友，forever!"

对不起

2011-09-26T01:49:00.001+08:00

原來很小的一件事怎麼會變到這樣？

從小，CL大聲罵我我只會偷偷地哭，隔天又一起去學校，一點也不敢生她的氣。就算是生氣了，也不敢讓她知道原因。 Esther and Jane 她們很喜歡問我為什麼她對我不好我還跟她做朋友？ '因為我知道她值得'這是我一貫的回答。

長大後，我學會了'生氣'但是很多人都不當真。我喜歡和朋友玩玩笑笑，但是有時她們傷到我我也不想多說，只覺得告訴他們原因會感覺很小氣，因為生氣的原因都不大嚴重。 YJ有時候會有點attitude的跟我講話，我是會在意的，會不喜歡她這個樣子，但是我們真的很好，就算了。好像前幾天，她跟我說她身材不好，我就回答說她沒有很胖。結果她就說我每次這樣，很敷衍。我幫自己講話她又很不削的說我不會明白。。。我真的覺得莫名其妙。很想罵她，或生氣。但是覺得很小氣，就想想她對我的好，又想為了接下來的攝影和晚餐，就又笑笑地和她講話了。

多少次為了這樣的小事，我就很無辜的當一個只會點頭，面帶笑容的朋友。生氣了你們只會說那是開完笑的，別太在意，別太小氣！但是我說了又說，你們還是一樣！說真的，導致我對某些事情特別在意，甚至刻意隱瞞的是你們！！！

Sometimes覺得自己很可憐，難道我連生氣的權利也沒有嗎？我生氣不想給理由不可以嗎？晚餐時，我跟你還是有說有笑，那你應該知道我並不是很生氣。我明明就說了，找不到答案那我就幾天不reply你。你不知道嗎？而且，我剛才也跟你說了，算了，沒事了。那你為什麼還說我沒put in effort and that I don't care about our friendship? 你明明知道我是愛哭鬼還讓我傷心流淚。

If I really don't care, 那為什麼我看到你說喝酒，就叫HR and HL看看你和誰在一起，在哪裡？

If I really don't care, 那為什麼我會很內疚，怕你出事？後來聽說你在家就放心了。

If I really don't care, 那為什麼我看到你的blog後就更生氣？那是因為，我被冤枉了。

If I really don't care, 那為什麼我會花這麼久用我很懶的漢語拼音打繁體字？

我很在乎友誼的。但是有時候友誼真的很脆弱。很累的時候，我會選擇逃避，不想跟任何人講話。

所以，請不要理我。

It is my E-learning this week, I have stayed home the whole of today, but I am not focused in my work at all.
I think alot the whole day long.
It is just a game, why am I so serious about it?
And I am really very very very bothered by something else.
Oh my tian can anyone please advise..........?

I am geared up for winter?

2011-09-13T23:41:00.000+08:00

I saw this with my boyfriend in one of the shops in Bugis last Friday.

I thought it is cute so gave it a try.

Then BF said just buy it since its cheap.

However I think it is not really necessary as we won't need it for a burning weather here.
Then the salesgirl said that its original price is $15 and that it can be worn for parties. (ARE YOU SURE?)
Upon hearing the great discount, I decided to buy it, then BF suggested buying another two for his nieces.
But too bad, that was the last piece!
I am lucky!
Bought a pink dress from that same shop at only $10 too!!!

Today Jiaying and Moses told me that GIP results were out.
So Ruoxuan checked his mail and he got GIP Work and Study in China.
Huijie and I wanted only to check after our quizzes so we did after that, we got the same program too!
To be honest, I wasn't really excited for it, perhaps because I have already applied for IA in Taiwan?
However there is a risk to this, once Taiwan IA has selected me for interview, my GIP will be cancelled immediately and if I pass the Taiwan IA interview then I will of course go to Taiwan. But if I fail the interview I will not be allowed to go back to GIP, thus can only stay in Singapore.
So, God bless, either allow me to be selected for the interview and pass it; or do not select me at all!!

Today is the black 13: I did so badly for second quiz of the day, Structure 2 Quiz 1.

Romantic place in NTU

2011-09-07T11:28:00.005+08:00

These few days I was busy with my Industrial Attachment Application. The system also a bit screwed up, I have to re-submit my data sheet and resume a few times before the system captured them. The worse was, yesterday night when I wanted to apply at 11pm plus, it showed page error. I didn't know why was it like that. Then I kept on retyping and resending for ten over times, in the end by 3am I was still not yet registered for my IA. This makes my life so miserable and I have thus missed a few lectures. So this morning I woke up early to do again at 9am. The same screen appeared. So i closed it and wanted to try one more time before I gave up to go school. Then this time it showed that I have already registered for IA at 9.12am this morning. I was puzzled? Isn't the screen showed page error again just a minute before? Then I emailed CAO again to inform them that my problem has solved. However, just now I received their email, they said that it was them who helped me to registered on my behalf based on the email I sent to them earlier. I actually changed a little bit for the bottom choices. but it does matter. Hope I would not have to go to the bottom few choices.

I have chosen Taiwan as my first interviewing OIA, I hope to get into it so that I can go to Taiwan to work for 6 months. If I get interview for this (No matter what is the outcome of the interview), my GIP (China, France or Switzerland) will be cancelled immediately. So, pretty please, let me get selected for IA in Taiwan! I prefer Taiwan - Work than China - Work and Study.

Yesterday, I woke up at 9am to make sushi as promised. I took about 3 hours to prepare the ingredients and made 20 rolls (about 100 pieces?) of sushi. I shall admit that the sushi this round was not as nice because the rice was too dry, there was no Japanese cucumber (my family cooked it for dinner on Monday night :( ) and there was not enough tuna/salmon spread. However, All those who have tried it said it was nice. And best thing was, all of the sushi were finished by the end of yesterday. I made one roll and one box especially for Yang course that was what I owed him. Then another box for the double-clique which Jing finished all up because yang ate his own shares, Hong didn't go to school and Tady was having late lesson. One box for Syafiqah but she also didn't go to school so I gave it all to Huijie. The biggest tupperware contains around half of what I made (50 pieces?) and it was shared among my course friends, about 20 of them. I felt great seeing friends happily eating my sushi :)

Also, since I was already late for the first lecture, so I skipped it and in the end have time for this, I love it:

After school then I met Colin, Chee Kent and Puay Kee for dinner in NTU. Colin brought us to a cafe in NTU, the place was so peaceful, great ambiance for relaxing and chatting with friends, especially on Friday nights. It was so quiet there that I swear I am going to visit there very often. Colin said we should not tell too many people about it so that the place can remain quiet as it is, otherwise it would no longer be an ideal place for chilling out. TRUE. ahhahaa.

Anyway, Happy Birthday Qingting (:

MMPO

2011-08-30T12:24:00.006+08:00

I was complaining that boyfriend is so unreasonable that he doesn't allow me to work as promoter. However, in the end he lose to me and even volunteered to work with me. But the angry thing was, I thought that we can work together with Jing and Yang for both days, but there was some changes that in the end Dar and I worked on Saturday and Jing joined us on Sunday, yang didn't get to work. It was my first time working for MMPO, I was rather excited on that day as I heard from ll that we have to wear orange wigs for the job. I assume it would be cute till I saw myself become like this:

Then I took another picture and sent to Jing to let her mentally prepared for the job because I don't want her to scold me on Sunday itself. But to my utmost surprise, she said it was cute?! I bet that she would take back the sentence the next day when she wears the wig herself, like how I reacted differently seeing and wearing the wig. Boyfriend was complaining that he was hungry. So after work, we went to Javier at Cineleisure to have our buffer-like dinner. It was totally a bad service from the restaurant crew so I shall not mention it. After dinner we went to the flea market at Scape. I bought two nail polishes and a necklace from one booth, then 2 skirts from another. After which we walked to Far East to buy my lovely red sneakers. I took few photos of the shoes and asked Jing and Tady if they want, then only Jing was okay with it. After picking and deciding for a good 30 - 45 minutes, we bought the same colour shoes but different patterns.

It was due to the indecisive moments that we had no time for movie in the end. And since boyfriend and I were rather tired after standing for 6 hours giving out free minute maid samples, we headed home.

On Sunday, Jing met us at Khatib MRT and we three took the train to Plaza Singapura. On the train, Jing could not resist the cuteness of the pair of sneakers that she changed into them immediately. So this is how we both look like:

Jing's on top, mines below. I know many of you may think that hers is nicer. I agree too as I wanted to buy the exact pair initially, but then after trying both pairs and with boyfriend's suggestion, I chose the below one as it is very soft so would not bit my feet.

Then very soon, the train sent us to Plaza Singapura. Jing and I took a few photos after she put on the bob wig. Like what I have predicted, she scolded the innocent wig (whatever, not at me can already, hahaha.)

This is us before the transformation:

And... these are the after:

Haha, we took so long fixing our wigs in the ladies, together with my other friend, Mus. There were so many customers told me that we look pretty in the wig. Some even asked if its real and if they can touch it? Of course with this type of striking coloured wig, it attracted alot of people to take photos with me for the past two days of work. But I guess they were all friendly, not just being sarcastic.

It was rather tiring on Sunday, with no breaks at all. Jing complained that she was hungry while boyfriend said he was dying. Then he even requested if he can leave and pay till 2pm. Then when 6pm finally came, we were so happy packing up the stuffs, together with another 10 promoters. Time passed really fast for that 30 minutes of packing up. Then we three went to Carl's Junior to have our dinner. We firstly saw jamie, then after that Jianlin and Yande. Before that I saw Yihui and Kenneth. On Saturday I saw two other friends too. How small Singapore is, Plaza Sing is!

After dinner was very tired though it was only 8plus in the evening. Jing suggested that we go arcade for games, but in the end only she played. Not too bad, she got first:

Jing was so happy course according to her, it was her first time hitting such a high score.

Reason being I was there with her that night. how sweet of her <3

Totally knock out after I got home on Sunday. Luckily we have a long weekend (saturday to Today, tuesday). Nevertheless, I have done very little work, so it is really time to do some now.

Selamat Hari Raya!

_30/08/2011_

Why can't I?

2011-08-24T01:25:00.000+08:00

I told dardar that there is one promoter job for Saturday and Sunday. They need 4 promoters for drinks, so I though I can ask him and another two from DoubleClique. Then he kept asking me not to work but rest at home. I though it should be okay since this week we have 4 days holiday (Saturday to Tuesday). Then I can rest or study at night also. But he just kept asking me not to work. I really don't understand why?! I went for tuition at the tuition centre, he asked me not to. I went for promoter job he also said it is very tiring ask me not to work. I really do not know how to argue with him already! I am not a kid, I can handle the stress from work. Though I am not really in need of money, but I thought at this age it is okay to work sometimes? And I rarely work during school term also, why is he there to stop me from working?

ANGRY!

First Professional Photo Shoot

2011-08-22T21:24:00.000+08:00

A week before, Jing told me that her uncle's friend, Mr Chan is willing to help us take photos. So yesterday we met at Woodlands MRT at 10.45am and then Mr Chan drove us to Woodlands Waterfront for a day's shooting. I was excited yet nervous as it was my first ever professional shoot. We walked the entire waterfront, taking photos almost at all corners of the park. The weather was scorching, Jing and I were almost burnt. Yang went to look for us too as he needed to take some black and white shoots for his elective too. He left us at 2plus, and Mr Chan continued to dig out his treasures to help us take nice photos.

We left at 4pm and were all near dehydration. Jing and I went to Causeway Point to get some drinks then headed home to bathe for dinner. I met Hong at Yishun MRT at 6.30 to take the shuttle bus to Sembawang Shopping Centre. Then the 4 of us dined in at Aston, the food was nice and cheap! Yummy~

After the dinner, we went outside the mall to take a few funny shoots so that Yang can complete his work. Then we left the mall at around 10pm. Tired and sleepy! I had slight fever again so I skipped this morning's lecture and attended only one 2-hour lecture then went to meet Jess at Bugis.

SIWW Appreciation Dinner

2011-08-18T22:21:00.002+08:00

This is the second week of school, but my social networking continues. I think I have not yet fully prepared myself for school till now. I have got to pick up my momentum soon so that I won't find myself lagging behind at the middle of then term again.

Yesterday, I attended SIWW Appreciation Dinner with many others. When we reached Environmental Building, many of the PUB staffs said that I look very pretty with short hair. They complimented me so much that I blushed. Then Pearlyn, an SP girl, said that she likes my hair so much that she is going to have the same hair cut as mine. Thank you for that, girl (: There was also this female minister who talked to us for a while and she said that I must be the prettiest of the Engineering course, of course I said I am not! Anyway, so many people commented that I look like a doll like short hair, and that I look younger. So thankful to every one's kindness! However, a few also said that they prefer the long hair Kathy, cuz I look more feminine that way. No matter what, the change is worthwhile!

That night I represented NTU to get award from the Minister for Environment and Water Resources, Mr Vivian Balakrishnan, for the distribution towards SIWW 2011. Together with another two universities' representatives, I chatted with him for a short while. He is a very nice minister who took photos with whoever requested. That night, I took numerous photos, as usual.

Below are some for you:

Shengen and I

Receiving the award from Mr Vivian

the world is round, I met my ex Pri Sch vice-principal - Ms Taha

3 Pre-Siww helpers + Yinling and Nora

Jessica and I : Cam-whore queens!

Mas presenting the award to me again.

Huijie and I before she went off.

3 Uni representatives: NUS-Vionna, NTU-Kathy, SMU-Jialing

Looking forward to SIWW 2012!

GIP: Europe or China

2011-08-08T19:15:00.005+08:00

It was only the first day of school, and I am in a dilemma already, I need your valuable feedbacks. Thank you!

I have only two lectures today, after that I attended Global Immersion Programme (GIP) talk with Moses. Before the talk, I told him I wanted to go to Europe, especially France or Australia, but definitely not Asian countries. Then after the two hours' talk, I am totally in a dilemma now, because it is so expensive to go to Europe and earn only 10 AUs as compared to 16 for Work and Study in China / Indian / Vietnam / Indonesia. Below is the comparison:

1)Work and Study - Asia

-10 AUs earned for Industrial Attachment

-Additional 6 AUs earned for AHSS or UE

-22 weeks of work in the city

-3-5 weeks spent in the host university on two cultural/history courses (lessons in Chinese)

-Fee: SGD$7000 for 6 months

-Earn intern salary of about 2K RMB

-Interested in Beijing (Peking Uni, Tsing Hua Uni) or Shanghai (Fudan Uni, Shanghai Jiaotong Uni), China.

2)Research - Europe

-10 AUs earned for Industrial Attachment

-No additional academic units

-22 weeks of research in the university

-No study week

-Fee: SGD$14000 for 6 months

-No pay, no allowance for six months of research (meaning free labour)(first turn off)

-Need to come out with a project and submit a proposer (second turn off)

-Interested in France, Switzerland or UK.

My dear friend, if you were me, which will you choose to go to? China or Europe? Go China needs to pay only about 7K, with month salary from work. Can earn extra AUs for electives by studying a month at the local University. Or Europe? Go there need to spend double the amount, worse still, no salary/allowance is given. So it is more like we spend money to go for research. But going to Europe has been my dream from year 1 till now, especial France or Switzerland. I am sure I will gain alot more from the culture and polish up my French, but too expensive!

HELP!

Kite flying @ Mrina Barrage!

2011-08-06T23:42:00.034+08:00

It has been so long since our Double Clique last met. So few weeks back, I asked for opinions from the members and came to an agreement that we will meet today for kite flying and picnic at Marina Barrage. I set a theme: White and Red with sunglasses for National Day! Also, I requested all attendees to make some food. So in the end Hong bought Pia Kia pies, Yang drinks, Tady potato croquettes, Rong sandwiches, Yujing tidbits and I Longan Grass Jelly. Yesterday, I met up with Jess again (Met her on Wednesday for super nice movie, Captain America), walked around Yishun finding nice RED clothes for the outing. I took in so much effort to find that, but only realized others didn't even bother to keep to the theme. I won't set any theme for this clique anymore in the future gatherings, it's meaningless. Then I bought all the ingredients needed for the dessert and started cooking yesterday night.

This is the grass jelly, I bought the powder and cook myself because I heard that it is more healthy cooking ourselves. This is the final result after adding in longan fruits. Not too bad (:

Then this morning, I packed them into 5 containers so that it will be easier for them to eat since its liquid form. I prepared one extra large one in case some may want a second round. But none had it. HAHHAHA.

A few photos from the fun yet tiring outing. It was my first time flying a kite, so I was a bit clumsy at the tool. That had made Jing and Rong laughed their lungs out. Some evidences:

Some of my individual shoots (:

After our picnic, we dragged our bloated tummies to Olio Cafe at Marina Square and had our dinner till 9pm. Due to that, I missed SW's Birthday Party, I felt very guilty towards her now. We also went to buy some Korean goodies from the Korean shop. Spent about $50 for that day. But had great fun with my clique (:

Few days ago, I have also learnt from the TV show this dish: Winter melon soup.

This is unlike the normal winter melon soup because it is sweet and sour. I have not tried winter melon in my life before this, so abit don't like the result. But some people said it's not too bad. the most worth-a-eat reason about this dish is that it is a cooling dish. Winter melon contains about 96.5% water, thus it is believed to be able to reduce one's body heat easily. As a result, it will help those bothered with pimples to better the condition if you were to eat this frequently. This dish is very easy to make, approach me if you are interested.

Different phases of life

2011-08-01T16:58:00.000+08:00

I was rather free yesterday, so went to Pasar Malam (night market in Malay) to buy something to eat and I spent an horrible $17 just on FOOD alone. At night at around 10pm, I was forced to go down again with Yang and Hong. That extra trip caused me another $8 on FOOD. Sinful! So yesterday after finishing all the food with my sister at 5plus, I had the sudden craze to clear my room. I spent the entire evening clearing my stuffs and reading the letters people wrote to me during secondary school days. Those days were no doubt my best phase of life so far. We were really childish then, the content in the letters can be really silly and naive. Of course, not to forget those letters of heart-felt warmth from many peeps.

I still remember in Secondary 3, when we were all streamed into different classes. My class, then 3/6, was the top class, taking 3 Sciences and double Maths, with Geography as the elective. Mr Cheong Chee Leong was our form teacher and Chemistry teacher. He is firm and always went by law, thus I could sense not all of the class liked him. Madam Ho Soo Yin was our all-time-favourite Biology teacher. Her fun character fitted into our class perfectly. She was my and everyone's favourite teacher of all. With her, we talked things before Biology, beyond school. Loved her so much that I bought her some cute furry pens which I knew she didn't dare to use. Ms Tan Chong Hui, our Physics teacher. She was the teacher famous for her fairness and professionalism. She taught with undepletable knowledge and wasted no second. We all respect her. Next was our A-Maths teacher, Madam Sarojini. She spoke with an Indian accent that she found it sorry for us at times. She was an experienced teacher who was cute at her own way. E-maths was taught by Mr Kok Yeong Haur. He is still as humble now as then, a real gentleman. We all loved his kindness too! Then Humanities were taught by Madam Lim. The very soft and ladylike teacher who cared so much for our results that she even teared in class once regarding our bad results. She told us, in the top class, every subject was to be spent with the same amount of hardwork. She felt sad for the fact that our class did not put in as much effort as what we should. On Childrens' Day 2006, we each received one lucky G2 pen from her, wishing us conquer O Lvel, conquer Humanities, despite we were all over-aged children. Mr Tsing was our English teacher, he taught with his unique way that we liked to laugh at him for different funny stuffs he did. However, he was a great and passionate English teacher, we were lucky to have him then. I thank the school, Riverside Secondary School to award us with the few wonderful teachers!

The class loved staying in the cozy classroom, munched on our buns and sucked on the soya beans bought from Huiyi. We all loved our classroom and the company of one another very much! Due to this, other classes of the same level named 3/6 as the mugger class! But whatever the name was and no matter how much we hated the name, we didn't change our habit because we have one another and a bunch of lovely teachers, so there was nothing to be afraid of! Back then I remember that we enjoyed writing to our close friends as our beloved Biology teacher told us at her house: writing is a good way to improve your English/GP. So in order to drill in advance for our GP, we tried to write letters of encourage to our friends. That time, whenever I was bored, I would take them out, read over a few times and laughed to myself like a silly girl. Just now, I came across a few names friends wrote for me in the letter: Miss Dono, Princess Fantasy, Blur Queen, Sotong, Laopo, Yorbu, Kat/Cat, Miewmiew, Chuchu, 牙签，爱哭鬼，梦幻公主... etc.

Also, I came across this cute cartoon phone card, with SGD$5 folded nicely inside the plastic wrapper as shown:

If I remember correctly, it was put in in 2003, Secondary 1. I am not sure if any one of your have the same feeling as me, I tend to worry that I may get lost somewhere. Since back then I didn't own an ATM card, and afraid that I may end up not having enough money to get home, so this $5 was there like my amulet, providing me sense of security. I realized we get contented easily with merely $5 then, for now, I guess the amulet will expand in size and value, to $50.

Not convinced?

Evidence: below shows half of the 101 watches I bought during Secondary days.

If you care to take a closer look, the watches all cheap ones from any random shop out there.

The cheapest is less than $10 (can't remember which is the cheapest and how cheap it is) and the most expensive one here does not even hit $30 (think so?!). But for now, the watches I am wearing can easily hit $300, cheapest is also above $100. As we grow older, we demand for better goods, but I can say, the time when we owned the simplest thing are the times we were the happiest. Before I threw away all these ancient watches, I actually examined them one by one. Recalled how I got them if possible.

Then I came across this watch, it was one of my favourite then.

I remember I bought it at an 'expensice' price, I guess it was about $20 plus? Then the amazing thing is, I tried to push in the 'tunner' at the right of this watch, and it works! Meaning the watching is still working after 7,8 years of hibernating?! Yes, I keep it with me now, though I doubt I will be wearing it again, it is too kiddy to wear it, right? I know some of you may say that!

The work continued, I found another sweet thing: (Click to see if you can find your name here)

Those were the days when we had no Handphone, we recorded down friends' contact numbers. I remember right after 'collecting' numbers from the Primary 6 graduation class friends and the Secondary 1 new friends, I bought a Nokia 8250 phone. Not long after, I switched to Nokia's first colour phone, and many of my friends were crowding around me, eager to see the first colour phone! This scene will only replays itself now if you are carrying a black-and-white ancient phone.

There were bits and pieces from secondary school, but the puzzle never completes, as we are constantly being the pieces filling in one anothers' life till now.

Then life moved on to Anderson Junior College in year 2007, where I spent 2 years. I remember I have great fun there, but also, the very first time experiencing failure in academic matters. I cried the most over my results during those two years. I was not sure whether was I stupid or my brain was really getting rusty that no matter how hard I tried (perhaps not hard enough according to my friends), I couldn't get the desired result. I knew many of my teachers were quite disappointed with me, as normally in class I was not that dumb! Mr Vincent Goh, my H2 Chemistry tutor once urged me to clear any doubts if I don't understand, and he added, he had faith in me! AJC was not the school with only nightmares for me, it was also the school that trained me into who I am today.

Since primary school to JC2, I have been appointed as class monitress/class leader almost every level. However, it was in AJC that I had the most training in leadership. I joined two school camps, both drilling us on how to be a successful leader and how to handle problems well. In those two years, I put what I have learnt into real practice - I read announcements and handled some miscellaneous issues for the class. It taught me to be confident when speaking in front of a crowd. Thanks to this, I then took part in some external events/projects which required me to display high responsibility and great leadership skill. I have to admit that in 2008, I didn't graduate from AJC with an honourable result slip, but I walked through life via the AJC gate as a more matured and confident individual.

(A heart found in my drawer, unknown of the sender)

Lastly, I would like to declare that, I am truly proud to be an AJCian, Non Mihi Solum!

In 2009, I entered Nanyang Technological University and major in Civil Engineering. I was told by a handful of seniors that university friends are hi-bye friends and that there was no much time to gather and to know one another better. Bearing that in mind, I thought I couldn't find any good friends in NTU, and didn't care to confide much in them. Sometimes, I don't even share my things with them like what I did with my RS and AJC friends. During school holidays, they would say that it was as if I have disappeared from the world. However, two years passed, I can tell that those seniors were wrong. The group of friends I make in NTU were really kind and fun. We encourage one another in studies, share the fun we have in the dreadful lessons. This left me with the greatest guilty in life, I feel very sorry towards them. And I like to tell them that I am actually a very bad girl, believe or not, up to you. No one, not even my best friend or family can understand how exactly I feel as this is just not my style of making friends. Friends should be always there for one another if you need them. friends should be aware of what is happening with your other friends. friends should be truthful to one another. friends should be.. However, I know it is too late for me to make up now, perhaps, after graduation, okay?

Till 2013.

Facial @ Jeanyip

2011-07-30T23:45:00.003+08:00

My sis bought 4 facial vouchers at Jean Yip, expiry date is this July 31st.

I thought of going with two sisters and mummy but mummy and second sister don't want to.

So big sis suggested that we each ask a friend and go together.

The first person I thought of was Dardar and then Jing.

Dar doesn't want so I asked Jing but she was in Malaysia so can't either.

So I asked few others, however only Meijin can make it.

So since her birthday just over, so I treat it as a birthday present for her, plus a lunch or dinner.

We reached City Square Mall at 5pm just now and filled in the form as usual.

Then we were brought to two different rooms for facial.

It was quite a good experience, and the best thing was, after the facial, the person didn't show us any facial package at all.

I was shocked! It was the FIRST time after so many facial experiences with others.
After that then came back to join my family for dinner at Chongpang.

Highly recommended : Jean Yip @ City Square Mall (Original price $374)...

Outings

2011-07-27T23:34:00.002+08:00

It was Peiqi's birthday party on Saturday. Hong asked Yang and I to meet him at Yishun at 5.30pm to take bus 39 to Pasir Ris. However, given Hong's pattern, I knew he will be late. So I told myself the new meeting time: 6pm. At around 3plus, Tady texted me saying that she's sick so can't go. Then I also felt very lazy, especially because it was mega far from where I stay. Furthermore, having the new haircut require additional time to blow/strighten after my shower. In the end, I met Hong and Yang at 7pm at Northpoint and waited for Huilong until about 745pm.

When I first appeared in front of Hong and Yang, they both broke into laughters, for that, Yang owe me one more koi! Then Hong said:"OMG why you cut it short? Your mei li zhi shu drops to half already! SO not feminine now!" I was quite surprised that I didn't feel sad at all, perhaps because I was satisfied with my current hairstyle. When Huilong came, I asked him how was it too. He shook his head but didn't say something awful. So from there I know that he finds it okay, just that given his character he won't praise me! Hahahaha.

When we reached the Pasir Ris chalet carpark, there was some road blocks and some illegal parkings that caused us to stuck at the road side for at least 15 minutes. I then called Peiqi to inform her the delay. It was around 8.30pm. Peiqi said she will wait for us to cut the cake as her relatives were finding parking slots as well. So after everything, we got to the chalet, M05, at 9pm. Then we had a bit of the catered food and mingled around with the Riverside friends. Photos were taken as usual. Almost all in the chalet said that mine was a good haircut. They said it is nicer, and I look younger and cuter!

Thank you for the kind comments friends!

On Monday, we went to Ippudo for AJC class outing. There was a total of 9 people who came. Much appreciated for that! We had fun catching up with one another, not forgetting a little bit of gossipping. Then the guys were asking us girls about university life and stuffs. So we spent the night sharing stories and experiences with them. After the Ramen dinner, half of us headed to cold stone for ice cream! it was yummy, but mine was too sweet though.

Yesterday, Tuesday, I met Wangwang for lunch at Northpoint, then we chanced upon this buffet at Ishi Mura, Shabu Shabu. it's only $12.90 sharp for students/senior citizens. I went there to eat ala carte for so many times already but didn't know about the steamboat buffet! Then the excited two quickly paid and then sat at the table, preparing for our steamboat. It was around 2.30pm. Then we chit chatted alot and left the place at 5pm. Honestly, there was nothing much to choose from, but given that it's only $13, that's cheap enough! We kept saying that we should introduce other friends there, next time can go there to study while eating steamboat. 12-5pm, for lunch.

Today, Wednesday, Hong, Yang and I met at Royal Plaza's Carousel for the High Tea Buffet. Before I met them, I rushed to budget terminal to send my uni friends off, they are going Taiwan for 1 week holiday. I was alone but I still went because I always have the guilt towards them. I reached at 2.15pm and waited for them to check in their luggage. I know I have to leave at 2.30pm to be able to reach the buffet at 3.30 so as not to waste Yang's money. The buffet lasts from 3.30-5.30pm. But when they are done, it was about 2.30pm. So we went to mac, they ordered food and then took some photos before I left at 2.45pm. At Changi MRT, I met this Korean businessman who asked me for direction to City Hall. I told him that he could go with me as I was going orchard, via city hall. Then We chatted a little bit along the way. I tried to squeeze my very very limited Korean along the way, but I remembered none. Utterly disappointed with myself. Before City Hall station, he asked if it is okay for me to meet him that day for coffee, I rejected politely. Then he asked for my email and he gave me his too. He said perhaps we can meet up for coffee during weekends. I told him I will see first, and if I go I will ask a friend who speaks Korean. He was fine with that. I guess it's alright, since he's in a father's age. So shouldn't be a big problem? Furthermore, this is my country, I won't be at risk.

When I reached Carousel, it was about 4.15pm. Yang and Hong looked as if they were full. Then i took some food and started taking photos till 4.45pm then back to eating mode. There was a wide range of food to choose, the ambient was as good as that in Vienna. However, for seafood lovers, it is recommended to go for their lunch/dinner buffet. You will get to eat crabs, lobsters etc. For me, I ate alot too, suddenly the diameter of my tummy increased a couple of inches! Though I ate so much, it was confirm not enough to cover what Yang paid for: one pax $33 after UOB/DBS discount card. I have told him that I don't want to claim such an expensive buffet, but he insisted. Luckily we went for High Tea Buffet not lunch. But I felt guilty still. Thank you Yang!

After the feast, we took a train to Bugis and walked along the street. I bought one school bag and one pair of shoes. Both at a damn cheap price - $10 each! Cheaper than what I bought in Hong Kong! Girls, next time shopping can just go to Bugis Street, no need to travel overseas. LOLX. After walking for a while, I craved for koi and went to illuma to get it. Then we sat on the wooden floor, chatted and took some not-so-nice photos using my ipad. A splendid night spent with two of them (:

To my dearest girlfriend

2011-07-23T16:55:00.028+08:00

She is my best girlfriend, we confide in each other very often since upper secondary.
I think she is the only friend who has seen my first official boyfriend, through picture.
Of course she told me many of her secrets too, of those, some are actually so personal that if I were her, I might not have the courage to tell others.
We like to criticize each other, but deep in our hearts, we know we love each other!
Also, recently I have just learnt how to track people who viewed my blog.
Guess what? She is my top fan, with the highest view rate.
Thank you girl!

Whenever she went for holiday, no matter how near the country is, she would buy me small gifts.
Sometimes, she will just buy for me only, not even for our friends.
That is the reason why she is always the first person on my mind whenever I go overseas.
Remember there was this time when her brother went to China for attachment, he bought her a panda toy.
When she showed me, I joked that she should take one for me too.
And that night, she texted me saying that she got me one, but of different colour.
I was rather touched, though I am not really fancy about panda, but it is really the thought that makes me treasure the toy so much.
Sometimes I do complain to friends about her, saying things about her (of course not speaking ill of her, just purely complaining).
But when other friends saying BAD things about her, I will get so angry and scold them.
Perhaps they will think that I am so hypocrite, I say things about her yet don't allow others to do so.
Yes I know I am very unreasonable, but that's me, you can't do anything!

One random night, she called me at midnight 2plus, crying and complaining about the guy.
I know she was hurt deeply, I couldn't help much and wanted to cab to her house to keep her accompanied.
But it was our exam period that time so she stopped me from doing so.
Now she has been more matured in handling relationship stuffs, but get scoldings from me still.
I just don't want her to get cheated again and again.
Or perhaps those are not scoldings, but nagging, just for her own good.
Perhaps because of that, now she tells me lesser secrets already :(

Just now, I was reading her blog, and came across this:

I also don't know why. I only want to hang out with the few close friends of mine but they are always not free. lol. So that leaves me with no choice but to be alone.

Suddenly I felt so guilty, so sad that I am always not free for her.
That is why I felt the urge to write this post before I go prepare for a friend's 21st Party later.
I just want to let this friend know that though I am busy, I didn't forget about her like what she thinks.
Sorry dear, I will sure make time for you next week, we can go for dinner and chit chat again like before.
Promise, okay?

Okay, I am running late, it's 5pm now, I have only 30 minutes to prepare. Oh My Tien!
Write a better one next time (:

New hairstyle - Bob

2011-07-22T19:09:00.008+08:00

On Monday, My BF and I went to Tampines, and we saw one salon offering haircut at only $10 and the queue was really long. It comprises of costumers of different ages and genders. I then told my boyfriend to give it a try since the salon looks rather clean, hence the result shouldn't be too bad. He tried, but asked me not to risk it, he said he has money to pay for me! Hahaha. I took his advice, didn't have hair cut there but instead, at Monsoon Twister. It costs about $30 for cut + wash + blow. I guess it was still alright after I cut my hip-length hair to neck-length bob. Luckily the result didn't disappoint me much.

Nevertheless, I looked different, absolutely.

Then for the rest of the time after my haircut that evening, my BF kept calling me xiao wan zi, and SMS addressing me as little ball. For those who don't know who she is, her English name is Chibi Maruko Chan, the famous Japanese cartoon girl. She looks like this:

Okay, this is my new hair style right after cutting:

It looked nice for just one day. The very next day my hair started to curl at the ends and my mum nagged at me for cutting it. She likes me with long hair, and kept saying why I cut it without telling her. Worst of all, she said I look auntie! Then my siblings commented that it looks horrible. During our dinner, they still said that our family has a free mushroom, if needed, can be used for dinner! HAHHAA. On Tuesday, I met up with my friends for durian, they said they prefer my long hair! Then my tutee said so as well. Though comments were not really good, but I am still okay with my new hairstyle. Went out seeing other girls with long hair I didn't feel envy AT ALL. Wednesday, I went to get many hair care products, so that my bob will not look dry and stiff. I also bought one hair dye - BLONDE colour. I am deciding whether to go salon or DIM (Do It Myself) at home. Was thinking if going salon will dye blonde, if DIM will dye brown using the blonde dye. On Thhursday night, Jing sms-ed me asking me if I want to go for photo shoot today (Friday) at Dhoby Ghaut area, from 8am-11am. Her cousin/uncle will be the photographer. I really feel like going but it's too early. So yesterday at 10plus, I quickly dyed my hair using the dye I bought because salons were all closed. I used about 3/4 of the dye and gave BF the other 1/4 because he didn't want to be too obvious. In the end as expected, my hair turned brown instead of blonde, but that's the exact result I wanted. Blonde is just too loud for me, I wouldn't dare to try. Then my family said it looks slightly better. And they added, it will be better if I go rebond my hair. But just dyed my hair, I will not rebond it, at least for these three months.

This morning (Friday) I didn't manage to wake up at 6.30am but instead at 9plus. I felt so sad because I really want to take some shoots. Wanted to call Jing but scared she might be busy, so texted her to apologise. She was having lunch then, going for second round after that I think. So good for her to have a cousin and a uncle who can help her take model shoots. Hahaa. Okay, got to go get some ingredients with my family, having steamboat at home later!

New Blogskin

2011-07-18T01:09:00.001+08:00

Finally changed to this new blogskin. I love the sweetness of it but of course I am also very proud this time round, as I have edited most of alignment for this. Praises please.

This afternoon I was felling damn bored, so I tweeted and Yang said he don't mind coming to Northpoint. So I asked him to meet me at 8pm then accompany me go for haircut at Jeanyip. However, I was late course I was proudly designing my blogskin and missed his reply in Twitter. Then I reached Yishun MRT at around 8.45pm, 30 minutes late. We then walked to Northpoint, but the salons were all closed. So as promised, we went to SHARETEA to buy bubble tea. It costs about the same price as Koi and Gong Cha but obviously not as nice. Then with the drinks on hand, we walked to BLK 900+ for the famous Laksa(Of course I don't like, but I was craving for the BBQ wings). Then sadly, when we reached there, all the stalls were closed! No choice but had to return back to Northpoint with an empty stomach.

It was around 10pm, so we didn't intend to go to Chongpang to eat satay, instead we bought crispy chicken from Dong Dae Mun. Yang said those were the leftover ones and complained that I treated him leftover food and not satay as promised. Well its not my fault, who ask the stalls to close so early. Haha. After that we walked to the park nearby MRT station and chatted about life. Then I told him about the story between the-never-talk guy and I. We also shared a few opinions on other friends' issues. Realized sometimes when I was really busy and had no time for friends, they will not get back to me after I am free. SAD.

Just when we were talking endlessly, I realized it was 10 minutes to midnight. Then I quickly asked Yang to catch the last train. But he sent me home before doing that. Then he said he got to cab home, and will claim the cab fare from me! Hahaha. Can I just sponsor half of it?

Hope you are home nnow, via MRT! LOLZ.
Anyway thank you, you are just so nice!

Okay, I am sleepy now, goodnight friends!

Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 2

2011-07-14T23:18:00.001+08:00

Thanks to sis, we got two Harry Potter's tickets at Marina Square.
Went with boyfriend after dinner just now.
I am not a crazy fan of HP, but I think its still not too bad, but somehow a bit draggy in the middle part.
Hermione (Emma Watson) is so pretty now, but Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) looks more like White Indian.
And he looks like Hong also.
They all look like real parents when they have kids at the end of the movie.
The author, J.K. Rowling is really a great author, she links the story up so well.
HAHA.

SIWW July 2011

2011-07-10T18:32:00.004+08:00

Few months back, I was shortlisted as the Student Ambassador for the annual Singapore International Water Week, SIWW.
I was actually thinking of rejecting firstly but in the end forgot about it.
When I was in Hong Kong, I received Jeanmay's email, asking if I am free to help in PUB a week before SIWW.
Thus, after I am back from HK, I joined PUB for a week.
I was there, together with Jessica and Valerie, helping them with some admin stuffs and SIWW related things.
It was really fun, especially the times I spent with Karen and Jess!
We love 38-ing, they are both so cute!! LOVES.

Then, my job as a student liaison officer (LO) starts on Sunday, 03/07/2011.
I was supposed to pick up my Canadian delegate Mr Marvin DeVries from the airport at 11.56pm.
But he emailed me at 3pm on Sunday, informing that he would be arriving early at 7pm instead.
Then I quickly changed the transport and everything.
I was almost late on that day, the very first time going airport to fetch someone ALONE.
And I was holding the placard, in business wear.

First day of SIWW:

Below is the photo taken with Mr Marv at the Networking Lunch.
He is a nice and humorous guy.
Being his LO, I take care of his schedule related to SIWW.
He is someone who is chatty and needs not to eat much.
Hahaha, he still said that he would complain to his wife that I didn't give him anything to eat but sweets!

Kudos to Mas and Maurice, I joined the Lee Kuan Yew Dinner together with two LOs.
It was rather pity that all my friends' delegates were not invited to this dinner so they had all gone home.
Otherwise I would bring any two of them in!!

The next day, Wednesday, 6th July, we visited NTU's pilot plant.
This is the group photo (:

SIWW 2011 is fun because of you guys (: LOVE.

Mr Marv is the speaker for American Business Forum, thus we were requested to take a few photos.
Formal and candid shoots.

Mr Marv was worrying about not being able to catch his flight on time while waiting for his turn to speak at the forum.

Thanks to Shanker's help in swapping the last two speakers' slot, Mr Marv was ten minute earlier.

We took an instant photo using my sis's Polaroid Camera.

We took two, one for him, one for me (:

Rushed off to the airport, after sending Mr Marv off, Jess and others asked me to go back to MBS for the closing dinner.

I was still considering then CT asked if I am going, then I decided to go.

Glad I went as the dinner was a fantastic one!
We had buffet and alcoholic drinks by the bay.
Delicious food accompanied by cooling sea breeze, scenic music fountain and friends!
Then at 8pm, Mas got us tickets to Art Science Museum and Skypark.
Val chose the formal while Jess and I chose the later.
I wanted to get one for CT, but Mas didn't even want to give to Karen so I didn't dare to ask also.
As the PUB staffs are not allowed to join, the three of us left without them.

However, after a while at the skypark, we were delighted to see all the PUB staffs there too!
Think they had some tickets left over.
Had a few photos on the rooftop with them.
It was really fun!

Before going up to Skypark, we took a few photos at the booth at Event Plaza.
We were really crazy! Took so many photos yet made lots of noise there.

Then I cabbed home with Karen and Jess at around 11pm.
Sorry to make Yinling wait for us for so long.
I also felt guilty towards Cheah Tien as he waited for me till late.
It was very crowded there, and I lost sight of him.
After calling him, I know that he was with Rachel so I thought he was enjoying himself there also.

Thus I didn't call him again.

Then he waited for me yet in the end I didn't go home with him cuz I put my stuffs in Yinling's car so got to wait for her to finish her stuffs first.

SORRY CT!

Macau-Hongkong Trip 2011

2011-06-28T22:26:00.010+08:00

Hello my friends, I am back from Hong Kong!

It has been few days already actually, but I am just got so lazy and busy after touching down in Singapore!
For this trip, I have spent about 1.5k Singapore dollars, but it is really worth it.
We all had fun!
First day when we reached Hongkong International Airport, we had our lunch before heading to take the TurboJet ($220 HKD per person per trip) to Macau.
Then we stayed in Macau for 3 nights and had one day shopping in Zhuhai, China.
Then from 17th June to 22nd June we spent our days in Hong Kong.

Next I will do a short review according to the places we went.
Hope I can remember most of the details, names etc.

ZHUHAI, CHINA - Current rate: $1 SGD = $5 RMB

Zhuhai Underground Square, 珠海地下广场
The square is just besides the boarder from Macau to Zhuhai, called 拱北广场
Thus it attracted lots of Singaporeans and foreigners who go to Zhuhai from Macau.
The location is definitely ideal for us to shop there, but most importantly, the foods there are delicious!
There are lots of cheap appeals, snacks, street food, fruits etc for the ladies.

In China, the unit for weight is called jin, which is equivalent to about 500g.
There is this small plums (brown/dark green/red in colour), its about the size of a lychee, it is especially recommended for people who like sour fruits like me.
Later on, I am confirmed by a friend that it is called li zi 李子.
The one I am holding:

This little fruit can be really nice if you can take the sourness.
We bought about 10 jin in total for the ten days in Zhuhai, Macau and Hong Kong.
One jin is about $7 - $10, that is about $1.50 SGD.
For appeals, please do some bargaining, do not take the price as stated UNLESS it is FIXED price items.
However, not to over bargain also otherwise they will not sell you and yet give you attitude.
Just as a guide, we bought one bag that costs about $150, then we managed to ask for $120.
A top that sells $80 we asked for $70.
Not too much, but still acceptable for the seller and we buyers.
However, for goods that are already cheap, on sale or fixed price, do not ask for discount.
There was this jacket, only $50RMB, but usual price is $350RMB, so we didn't ask for discount.
One belt, $30, already is a cheap item we also didn't ask for further discount either.
So if you want to bargain, make sure you bargain for the right thing, not for every single item you want to buy!
And yes, it is best not to bring guys along, they will complain non-stop as 80% of the goods there are female products.

Next will be small watermelon.
It costs about $10 per piece, that is around $2 SGD.
It is very different from what we have tried here, the giant watermelon.
It is best serve chilled, and follow how they eat: use a soup spoon and scoop the fruit meat.
Try their way of eating it, quite fun!

Macau - Current rate: $1 SGD = $6MOP Pataca
Check in at Royal Macau Hotel - 5 stars
On the doorstep of the hotel are: The Ruins of St Paul's - a Christian church dating from 1607 and the prized monument, Vasco da Gama, whose influence can be admired in the Portuguese mosaics of the prominent Macau landmark of Senado Square and its surrounding architecture.

In Macau, there are casinos everywhere, night scenery is really nice.
The whole Macau city is brightened by all the lights at night, like a sparkling castle.

The minimum age to enter the casino is 18, as such you can see many students hanging around there after school.
I was also once stopped by the security guide, he requested for my passport as he thought I am under 18.
That time just nice I left my passport with my sister, and they were ahead of us.
My brother and I stayed at the foot of the escalator and told the guide that I am already above 20.
Then my brother showed him his passport.
Then he allowed us to enter but asked me to just go to the restaurant to eat but don't go and play.
Hahhahaa.

Macau Tower - Fee: $90MOP
One of the main tourist attraction there.
It has about 65 storeys, tourists can choose to go up to level 58 or/and 65 and stand on glass floor to enjoy the panoramic view of the city.
It is recommended to go at night when the city comes alive.
Quite similar to Singapore flyer and MBS's Skypark garden.
At the ground floor, various art pieces are displayed for potential artists.

Hong Kong - Current rate: $1 SGD = $6.2 HKD
Check in at City View Hotel - 4 stars
This hotel is small compared to the one in Macau.
However the location is definitely ideal.
It is just 2 minutes away from Yau Ma Tei MTR Station.
Opposite the hotel are few convenient stores and eateries.

In Hong Kong, there are three colours of taxi to indicate their areas of service, but all serve the airport:
• Red taxis operate in most of Hong Kong, except for Tung Chung Road and the south side of Lantau Island.
• Green taxis serve the rural areas of the New Territories.
• Blue taxis operate only on Lantau Island.

Apart from Taxis, to travel in Hong Kong, we can get an Octopus card:
• Purchase from any public transportation company's customer service centre, such as MTR's or KCR's.
• Deposit $50 (refundable) + Stored Value $170 = Price HK$220
With this card, you can enjoy unlimited rides on MTR (like Singapore's MRT) for 3 days and one free express ride to the airport.

Mongkok Shopping (Ladies Street/ Fa Yuen Street/ Argule Centre/Avenue of Stars/ Symphony of lights)
One MTR station away from our hotel.
We usually walk from our hotel down to Mongkok, it takes around 5 minutes.
Along the way there are many shop houses and night markets.
Mongkok is well known for its shopping and foods, the must-invite place for ladies.
Argule Centre is also called Mongkok centre, is the mall gathered with more than 100 small shop houses selling all sorts of appeals.
The prices are relatively cheap, an indoor bazaar style.
This is the place where I have bought most of my clothes and 7 sets of bra!
Bargains are needed whenever necessary.

Ocean Park
The most worthy theme park I have ever gone to.
It costs only $250 HKD and we can enjoy one full day in the theme park.
Train rides, cable car are free of charge when you get from one place to another in the park.
Basically you pay $40SGD you get to enjoy everything except the food and gifts.
The theme park promises you more than just screaming from rides, suntan and sweat, along with, we have a splendid time taking photos and trying various finger foods there!
And yes, we saw giant pandas and they are really the cutest creatures on earth.
Tips: try to go to the theme park as early as 10am so that you can enjoy the whole day long.

Giant Buddha - Lantau Island
Admission: HKD$36/pax (Coach) HKD$138 per pax – Cable car ride ONLY (25 minutes ride)

The world's tallest outdoor, seated bronze Giant Buddha - open daily 10am-6pm
Personally I don't really like since I am not a Buddhist.
The cable car was out of order on the day we visited, thus we can only chose to go by coach.
The visit takes an hour ride on coach up to the mountain and we need to climb steep stairs.
Tiring yet nothing much to enjoy.
But definitely the place for devoted Buddhists as there are few temples and eating houses that serve real vegetarian food.

The Peak Market
By train - HKD$90/pax
I took half day leave and slept in the hotel while the rest visited the peak.
Heard that it was an eye-opening experience to be there, at the highest building, enjoying the cool and fresh air.
It is being described as the only place to get the direct fresh air from all the green plants beneath.
I gave it a miss as I was really too tired to join them that morning.

Hope this gives a brief introduction to people who are interested in going to the above mentioned places.
One thing to take note, in Hongkong, Macau and Zhuhai, the main language spoken is Cantonese and Chinese for written.
Also, the people there are generally loud as the places are constantly teemed with people, so they have the habit to speak loud to make sure their listeners capture what they are trying to convey.
This somehow explains why the PRCs in Singapore are always so loud.
Hahaha.

Which hairstyle suits me best?

2011-06-13T02:32:00.000+08:00

I keep dreaming of a head of princess curls, something elegant.
The best would be to have thick and long hair, then do big princess curls like these:

Are they elegant in this style?

Two years back, When I was having holiday in Xiamen, China around this time, I decided to have a perm at a local popular salon.
Then the boss there suggested that I rebond it instead as he claimed that I have a student-look, not suitable for curls!
Yes, I listened to him and had a rebonding instead!
I must say, their skills were really good, it was the best result I ever had.
My hair was left shiny and smooth even after weeks of rebonding.

Remember I did one survey on Facebook some times back, the result is I suit this hairstyle:

Comparatively I prefer the style below than the above two - BOB.

However the end result may not be the same as the one here.
If it turns out bad, I may even look like an ah-lian.
Don't wish to let jing and yang have the chance to laugh at me!
Hahahha.
Furthermore, guess my hair is not thick enough to do this style also, so shall give it a miss!

Perhaps, just cut short and curl inwards at the end. so it wouldn't be as boring as normal short hairstyles?

But maybe slightly longer, so that by end of this year, I can do some hairstyle for Sis's wedding (:

Well, no matter what, it all depends on the skill of the hair stylist in Hong Kong.
God bless!

Which style do you prefer, my dear friends ?

I am flying off tomorrow, will be back on 22nd June, Wednesday!

See you guys after my HongKong-Macau-Zhuhai-Shen Zheng trip (:

Misses.. <3

Nightmares - Pregnant!

2011-06-09T17:19:00.006+08:00

These few nights kept having nightmares.
From having GPA 5.3 (upon 50 in my dream) to yesterday's pregnancy!

This dream goes like this:

I had my first sex experience with my boyfriend, and for just one night, the baby was out!
However in the dream, none of us felt weird about that.
And worse still, when the baby was delivered, she (or he?) was actually Dardar's 6-month old niece, the pair of big bright eyes kept staring at us.
Then upon receiving the toddle, I cried non-stop.
Reason being I didn't want to have baby with boyfriend!
Then I blamed my boyfriend for having sex with me and kept scolding him!
Then I asked this guy who I didn't know him in real life but was my friend in the dream, why did I get pregnant so easily since we only had one try.
Then I also couldn't remember what the guy answered me!
Then I told my boyfriend that I need to abandon the toddle with whoever can take care of her, as I was going to study another 2 more years in university!
Then that guy again, said he don't mind help us take care of her so I left her with him.
That guy kissed me on my lips, and offered to take care of me too!
I told my boyfriend that I would divorce with him for having sex with me!
Then I kept crying till morning, overslept for my work.
LOLX.

This morning, on the train I told Dardar this and he asked who's baby is that?
I said, of course his if not who else?
Then he asked then why I cried, instead should be happy!?
I said cause in the dream I don't wanna have baby with him, plus I need to study hahaha!
Then now finally I remember, that guy looks like 'Mr M', perhaps cause I was on the phone with him before I went to bed yesterday night!
hahhaa.

Ridiculous dream!

With this I believe more in not having premarital sex.
Dear friends, prevention is better than regret! Be safe (:

HSBC Telemarketer Job

2011-06-08T16:21:00.003+08:00

Went to Raffles Place with my boyfriend yesterday and approached someone for direction.
That person handed us a name card, saying the company HSBC is recruiting.
We called them about one hour later thinking that they work in the bank HSBC.
Then again we ran into them on the way back to the train station so we were invited us to their office for interview.
In the end I got the job, HSBC telemarketer.
The job is to call up potential candidates for a career briefing session with the manager reagrding the position Fiancial Planner.
The working hours are short, 10am to 2pm and it's rather flexible.

I started my first day this morning.
When it was 11.20am, I have not even arranged for one interview.
I almost felt like leaving and forget about the pay!
But of course in the end I didn't.
And I texted my friends asking them to see if any of their friends are looking for full time jobs.
But none of them have any friend who can come for the interview.
Meanwhile I continued to call and got my first client at around 11.30am and second at 11.45am.
So felt a bit better, not as demoralised.
The girl on my left works from 10am to 6pm, with a lesser pay than mine (I don't know why?!) told me not to be too stressed and asked me to take a break.
She is very nice, still wanted to share with me her lunch but I have no break cuz I am only working 4 hours a day!
She told me today was her 4th day but she is already getting sick of this job.
She made 1, 8, and 3 appointments for the past 3 days.
Her supervisor said it is already very good for a beginner, but she has no target to meet, unlike me.
So by 2pm, I have successfully managed to make 4 appointments, meet the target!
Feeling quite proud of myself at squeezing out the 4 clients!
Guess I will still go to work tmr (:

SIA Air Stewardess

2011-05-29T21:30:00.016+08:00

Yesterday accompanied S for the SIA Air Stewardess Interview at Suntec.
It has been her dream to be in that uniform, while for me, obviously just went for fun.
I was in my pink dress with black slippers.
When we reached the hall at around 1.30pm, there were about hundred over people waiting.
Seriously I don't understand why people like this job so much.
It is just waiter and waitress, flying and serving in the air.
Have they not heard of the dark side about SIA, about being part of the cabin crew?
Well, I didn't complain much, but joined the queue as soon as possible.
Then the staff divided us into groups.
Our group number is 124.
It means, there were about 1000 over people before us?
Oh my tien, this is crazy!
Well, we were then brought into this room, watching some related videos.
Then not long later, we were asked to sit outside an interviewing room.
When our number was called, the girls sashayed into the room, hoping to catch the two interviewers' attention.
For me, what can I do with my pair of slippers?
In the room, we were asked to do the interview-never-do-without: self-introduction.
And also, we were to share one interesting fact that others might not know!
I was the third and the two guys (the only two guys) before me didn't really do well.
So when it was my turn, I said normally and told them that I came just to accompany my friend and I didn't really dream to be in this line.
They knew that I was in NTU, still schooling.
After the interview, S told me that I shouldn't have told them that as they will never consider me.
Well, regretted a little however I guess it was OK?
I went for fun only, that's the fact!
Then when the result was out, I was the first name to be called.
Rather surprised actually especially after what the experienced S had told me.
Then I felt sorry and guilty for S, it has been her dream.
I accompanied her, in the end I got in but she's out!
And now, she has to give it up.
She said she will not try again, but wants to settle down already.
One thing happened and that was quite embarrassing, I was asked to reach out to this red line sticked onto the wall, to confirm my height.
I was brought to the height measuring area, it was 1.6m.
Those 1.6m and below needed that I guess.
So in my group, 4 out of 12 were selected.
V and I were asked to do that while D and the other girl obviously tall enough to skip that step.
It was rather du lian, and for once, I hope to have grown 5cm taller.
Then next I went for other interviews and though the judges know that I will only graduate in 2013 but they still chose me.
It was only towards the end then the lady asked:"Oh you are still schooling? So if we sign contract with you will you give up your studies?"
Obviously my answer is a firm NO!
Then the lady advised me to withdraw now and try again after i graduate 2 years later.
She told me not to waste my time trying because the company will not consider any part timer.
LOLX.
Then I took my leave and waited for boyfriend then went to shop for one whole afternoon!
Bought so many things I like!
One pair of heels, one pair of slippers, 3 shirts and one gift (:
Loves.

All the best to you S and V, in your future endeavours!

Cleaning your makeup brushes

2011-05-27T18:17:00.007+08:00

How often should you clean your brushes?
Our skin deserves the best. So we should pick up a good habit than suffer from eye infections or skin breakouts. It is recommended by Bobz to clean them at night so by the time we wake up, they’re fresh and ready to be used again. PS. At least clean your (most often used) brushes once a week.

Brand new brushes will still need to be cleaned beforehand too. Why? Because during production, they collect dust, dirt, debris and bacteria.

Material
Any baby shampoo to clean the makeup brushes. It removes ALL the makeup, dirt and oil from the brushes (even waterproof) effectively. While it is strong enough to kill germs/bacteria, it won't dry out the hair bristles.

Demo
First, soak the brush bristles with a little warm water. Remember, the temperature of the water has to be 40 degrees only to kill germs.

Next, pour a little baby shampoo into a little dish. Remember, you don’t have to use a dish, you can just use the palm of your hand instead. Dipping the brush into the baby shampoo, then tap and swirl the makeup brush to remove the residue from the bristles. Don't be vigorous, be gentle. The bristles will foam up into a murky colour.

You can fill up a dish of water and tap your brush in to rinse off the dirt. Then repeat this process about 2-3 times until the water is completely clear. Next, flick the brush forward a few times to shake off excess water. Note, never squeeze the bristles dry because it can misshapen the brush.

Drying the brushes
This little trick is taken from Beauty Blogger BeautyQQ. Basically take a little towel and roll one end inwards so it forms a ‘roll’. Now you can lay your brushes on the towel but make sure the brush ends are rested on the ‘roll’. This allows the brushes to dry at an angle helping the brush to remove excess water. For dual end brushes, simply lay them flat on a towel.

In a hurry?
There are a lot of brush cleansers in the market. They’re handy for makeup artists because they can disinfectant and clean brushes instantly. Some brush cleansers can also 'dry out' the hair bristles. If you’re really in a hurry and you just don’t have the time to clean your brushes before application, you can use a makeup cleanser or even wipe them clean with a makeup wipe.

Timid

2011-05-26T23:59:00.002+08:00

Sometimes I really hate myself for being so timid.
To think that I rejected such a good opportunity just because of that!?

Stupid Kathy.

Don't ever lie, dear friends.
Once you tell a lie, you would need another 1000 lies to cover for it.
That's tiring seriously.

$$ again

2011-05-22T01:07:00.004+08:00

A friend of mine has accidentally transferred $80 into my account so I have to transfer back to him.
It was only then I realized that boyfriend had transferred money to me again!
He used to transfer $1k before but I rejected.
And last month we went for an event job, earned $840, he gave me also but I rejected again.
Then this round he transferred $800 to me again, for weeks already but I didn't know because I don't check my statement frequently.
He didn't mention anything to me either.
Haix, silly boy!

Well, of course as usual, I had the money transferred back to him, I don't like to take his money.

Thank you Dardar (: <3

520

2011-05-21T01:13:00.003+08:00

520 has just passed!
Didn't notice this romantic date till I saw Jing's FB status.
Kinda sad, cause I didn't even think of spending it with darling!!!

I guess I have neglected him recently.
my.bad.

know the right time to joke

2011-05-20T23:12:00.006+08:00

Sometimes I really don't know when can I joke and when not to?

My friends and I were doing project in school today and before we left, one of them tried to push back the table.
However, as he didn't notice that my laptop was on the table so in the end the laptop dropped onto the floor as the table was pulled sideways.
Of course I didn't blame the friend who did that.
So I joked and said if not for friend B who put my laptop on the table, it wouldn't have dropped.
I am not sure if I sounded serious or friend B just took it so seriously that he actually said he was not to be blamed.
And still said I can just delete the part of the project that he did.
I told him I didn't blame him, and that I was joking only.
But he sounded serious, thought not angry.

I felt so sad suddenly, because I am not blaming him.
I felt like being accused, then I just teared in e car, not speaking much.
Actually, even if the laptop spoils, I doubt I will even tell them, so that they won't feel guilty.
But why did he take it as that I am blaming him?

I am NOT, seriously.
Perhaps, I shall learn not to joke with them the next round.

越来越难了解人了

the thought again

2011-04-30T04:46:00.003+08:00

I cant fall asleep, partly due to the stomach ache I am undergoing now.
All thanks to Hot @ Tomato!
Then, it allows my mind to run wild.
I know I shouldn't be thinking of all those but I just cant help.
I don't know why also.
But I just don't want to hurt him ...

Just now went to AngelSky 8 for facial.
Treating dardar and Candy, however, dar was excluded as they donot have vacancy for male customer.
Then I asked him to go back first, but in the end he waited for us for 2 hours with an empty stomach.
He is as usual, so sweet and nice to me.
How would I bear to say or do anything to hurt him?
NO, no way.

This is not the right thing to do in front of me.
Please control yourself, dun let me despise you!

Thanks

2011-04-09T22:56:00.001+08:00

BF accompanied me to the clinic yesterday. The doctor said it is normal to experience that so I didnt ask for a full body check-up. And this saved me $368!! However, I have regretted, should have done a x-ray, just in case. I am feeling not right everywhere.. WHY????

Should I or not?

2011-04-03T00:45:00.002+08:00

Recently, I keep having that thought. Not very sure if it's right to do that, but.. I am just so undecisive.

Thank you!

2011-03-11T20:42:00.002+08:00

That day someone told me some secrets!
I was very touched, it is so personal yet she trusts me so much to leak all out to me.
I was also shocked at those secrets but still thank her for having the trust in me!

Thank you very much to you-know-who-you-are :)

Loves !!!

waiting

2011-03-06T03:13:00.000+08:00

ii am still waiting, but it's 3.15 am now!

I am dumb

2011-03-03T22:20:00.006+08:00

I guess it's either I am dumb or I am just blind.
Yesterday she told me that he confessed to her.
And omg, I didn't know that he likes her, I couldn't tell also!
I am just so dumb, all the while I am just the 'third party' for those meetings!
I feel so insulted!

But one thing I despise the girl is: why she still went out so frequently with him when she has boyfriend already and also that she knows he likes her?
Why is she giving him false hope when she dislikes him so much?
She can complaint to me how he 'forced' her to go out with him yet she is still accepting his treats and presents.
Perhaps all caused of money? He is rich!
This year Vday, she told him that she needs a BB phone and he bought her one!!!?? WTH!
The guy is stupid or dumb??
Can he understand that the girl is attached and in fact she dislikes him alot?
The girl lies so much to him, even her boyfriend, how can she ever be a good girl! ?
She didn't tell the bf anything about herself in school yet dare to tell people that she is single!
I am sure she will still lie to others that she has no BF even if she were attached to him!
I don't understand that guy at all seriously, is he really that desperate?
To have to take other guy's girl as his own girlfriend!??
Attached already why still keep bothering the girl, loser?! ?

In school, she can pretend that she has no boyfriend then flirt around with guys she just knew and let this another guy woo her and touch her?
But at least this guy does not know she has a boyfriend, so I assume it is not that sickening?.
It is the girl and the guy who knows she has bf yet dates her out, they make us puke.
The girl especially, deserves a slap from her bf.
Didn't she hear what others are saying about her?
Names like "mistress", "she looks like someone who cheats on guys' money", "witch" ...
Those are awful.
How should I tell her when we are not even that close?

Forget it, just for leisure, non of my business.

But guys, wake up!!
Attached girls are not meant for you to woo and date.

和别人分享你的知识，那才是永恒之道！
善待我们的地球。
不要愚弄自然母亲。
忙自己该做的事。
不要相信接吻时从不闭眼的伴侣。

如果你赚了很多钱，在活着的时候多行善事。这是你能得到的最好回报。

2011-01-07T17:43:00.002+08:00

A week past the new year, 2011.
I have also lost the momentum to blog, partly due to my tight schedule and of course mainly, my laziness.

A new 2011, a new start!
I have to work harder on my studies especially and spend less.
Re-look back to year 2010, I have spent an unforgivable amount on random stuffs.
Almost exceeding 5 digits for the whole of 2010.

These few days as I have a little time, thus I cleaned and cleared my things.
Tidied my desk and so, then I found two letters from the many that I received over the years.
One from X, with many red and pink hearts, inside were 'sorries' written in different languages.
Can't really remember what had happened then, but somehow they brought my memorises back to JC times.
The time when I truly enjoyed my schooling days.
The clique with Bryan, Yiyao, Huilong, Terkming, Faye and Angela.
We had fun, we had joy, we had seasons in the sun!

Another one was from Y, together with it were two little clip-on polar bears.
I still remember that was the time when he gave me the moon cakes and scolded me for being such a cold girl.
I am not one, or perhaps, cold to him only.
But it has been so many years, we have grown up and became matured.
I hope he can forget all those, we are still friends!

Then next, I rearranged all my stamps according to their countries of origin, like what I did for the past few.
I used to be able to tell exactly where and how I have gotten those stamps from, from my albums.
However now, due to years of neglect, I have lost the leisure I used to enjoy pretty much.
I have not lost entirely the interest in collecting stamps, just that I am constantly making excuses that I am lacking time.

On the side note, there was this old uncle standing under an HDB block, asking passer-bys for $2 for lunch.
I gave him $5 and my Elgin said that I am dumb to get cheated.
I don't care much, seriously.
He is an old man, I hope to help others whenever I can.
After watching <1> and reading , I know that life is really short and unpredictable.
We should treasure the moment and plan for the future.
We should help everyone, even a little bit, whenever it is within our limit.

XxX

Phuket 22-250810

2010-08-30T23:56:00.002+08:00

Few photos to share:

I am sick from High Fever for 4 days after the 4-days Phuket Trip.

Of the six people who went, only boyfriend came back fine.

My fever went up all the way to about 41 degree Celsius on Wednesday night and stayed at around 39 over thereafter.
After Saturday, the temperature then started to drop to 38 and was then maintained at a healthy temperature on Sunday.

However, having recovered from fever, I got more other sicknesses such as teeth and gum ache, drowsiness, flu, cough, diarrhoea etc..

Today is my first day of school and I had no choice but skipped and slept at home.

I have slept the most in my life for this whole week.

On the other hand, I was shortlisted by Chanel U for the blogging competition thingy, however as I was so sick the past few days that I didn't get to reply to them in time before Sat's Screening.

I felt guilty and was irresponsible for letting them remind me again and again.
My apologies, sincerely.

Thank you Chanel U for shortlisting me as one of the five contestants=)

I stay home today!!!
Yesterday played mahjong till 4plus and won $10 together with Dar.
When I opened my eyes today it was already one in the afternoon.
Then I sms-ed some friends asking them to go out.
However when some friends replied saying they were free then I felt lazy.
So I told them to meet another time instead!
Hahha.
I then stay home using the laptop, listening to songs and chatting with friends.
Life is good like this.

Yesterday went to Serene Centre for French cuisine with my two girlfriends.
The food is delicious; service is superb and it is definitely value for money =)

To all French food lovers:
La Petite Cuisine
#01-05 Serene Centre
Tel: 6314 3173
*Take Bus 171 and stop opposite Coronation Plaza.

Highly Recommend:

1.Ravioli of Prawns Foie Gras in Light Lemon Crème ($15)

It was pretty interesting – the ingredients within the ravioli are generous, and the sauce was nice, but despondently, one could see the foie gras but not taste it - the prawns simply overwhelmed the former. In fact, it tasted more like our Chinese prawn dumplings served French style. The light lemon creme was wonderful! Thumbs up!!

2. Confit de Canard with Gratin ($17.50)

You must definitely give it a try if you visit the restaurant. The duck skin is slow-cooked to a perfect crisp, and fully flavoured. The potatoes that come with it were smooth and delightful too. I don't eat duck personally, but this is a dish well-liked by all diners.

Dardar bought me four boxes of beauty products from his friend.
I scolded him for the expensive products but was actually feeling very warm within. Thanks!!

Hello Jing!

2010-08-11T23:56:00.005+08:00

My idol Jing came to Singapore from Sunday 08/08/2010 to this morning 11/08/2010.
For the very first time, I am so crazy over this singer, cuz Jing worths all these!
I joined all the events she had in Singapore for these three days, and am really happy to have this chance to meet her in person and shake hands with her.
She is very pretty and cool in person, much much better than any other singers I would say.
Written her a letter, hope she will take time off to read it.

A big thank you to 38, for accompanying me to the events, loves!
I think I must learn more of her songs, so that next time when I go Kbox I can sing and let more people love her.
I have few friends went to her events with me because they know about her through me and love her now!
I am really glad about this.

京，保重，我会等你再来新加坡的！

Death

2010-07-27T02:26:00.005+08:00

27/07/2010. 2.50am.

I thought I would sleep very early tonight due to the killing run I had with Bryan and TM just now, but it wasn't so in fact.

Read some posts from some friends and realized that many of them have a goal to achieve, a plan to follow and a target to meet.

Here I am rotting my holidays away at home.

I eat, sleep and play aimlessly.

Spend a lot but earn zero.

Suddenly the guilt engulfed me, not only this but also at grandpa’s death.

Sis and mum were watching the recorded video taken at grandpa’s funeral ten over years back.

They were, as usual, tearing away.

Then sis asked me, how if the video they were watching is for my granny, who is still alive healthily.

I didn’t dare to think of it and scolded her for the nonsense.

Then away I went for a bath, thinking of the scenario when grandma is dead.

I am terrified; I don’t want any of my loved ones to leave me.

I can’t image what we will do without grandma, or even my parents.

Death is part and parcel of life, everyone has to go through, but I don’t wish and am really scared to see them departing.

We felt somewhere guilty for not staying by grandpa’s side before he closed his eyes for good; we were all in school then.

We spent very little time with grandpa, our most respectful and beloved person in this world.

Now, I see the need to take care of grandma more, talk more to her and make sure she does not feel lonely.

What we all can do now is really to cherish all our loved ones before it’s too late.

* "If death meant just leaving the stage long enough to change costume and come back as a new character; would you slow down or speed up?" *

It's not that I am heartless, I cried painfully deep in my heart.

I miss my ah gong truly deeply madly, but I know I will never have him back again.

Photos taken during MBS days. 22/06/2010, photographer: Jackson Leong.

Friday, 16th July, Linyan met me at Yishun MRT at around 1pm.

Then we headed to MBS.

However we reached, the whole of marketing department was having meeting so both of us went to TDR to wait for them.

After a while ZH came and helped us to get some food, we ate one chicken wing each =)

After their meeting ended at around 4.30pm, we went to pass the time sheets to Denise and headed to the bus bay, hoping to get on the 5pm bus.

But in the end we failed, due to these:

Left MBS before 6pm but reached home already 7pm.

Knowing most of my girlfriends will be late so I took a quick bath and then got myself ready for the 'social night' later on.

Met the girls at around 8.30pm at AMK Hub's New York New York and rushed off at 10pm to meet Huilong and Bryan at the station.

The night at Phuture was rather fun except the moments when Faye and I felt sleepy and tired.

And also, the stupid handphone of mine with no flash light.

We had a difficult time trying to take photos with it and I had left my camera inside my hangbag which was resting happily at the counter.

Yesterday Shengen suggested that we go to the Fort Canning Park, but it was sadly cancelled due to the afternoon rain.

Then Laihui, SE and I met at AMK Hub at 2pm where SE got cheated SGD60K!!!

The evidence:

We spent our afternoon eating and eating untill Huijie came at 5 plus.

Then we chatted and took some photos.

The whole day passed on chatting and eating, with little shopping.

Then while waiting for the train home at AMK, I saw Yiling!

Finally, from today onwards, I am very free once again.
I need more outings, crazy ones !!!!

It's seriously not my day today!
I lost my way to my USUAL tutorial room and was late for Physics Quiz for 15 mins!
I used the last 15 mins to do the questions and the result is horrible!
After that had Mat Sci quiz again, and I got a horrendous result too!
I was so sad the whole day and my friends kept cheering me up.
Some offered me their food, some wanted to treat me ice cream and even sent sms jokes to me!
How touched I was!
Thanks darlings!

After lunch, I went to LWN library to meet Tady and Jing.
Did my lab report for a while then started to cam-whore with Jing and Tady.
Look at my new hairstyle, long or short hair nicer?
Studying at NTU LWN LIB:

Last photo, back to long hair!

So, long or short hair?

Zouk

2010-03-20T23:19:00.001+08:00

From the photos above can tell that yes, we went Clubbing!

Treated DoubleClique to Zouk on Friday!

First time went in before 11pm and also first time left before 1am.

But after Jing and Rong cabbed home, Hong Yang Long and I went to eat supper till 2am then cabbed home.

Well, overall still not too bad.

Enjoy~

Sony Vaio

2010-03-19T02:11:00.001+08:00

First time I am involved in this year's IT Show.

I got myself the Sony Vaio laptop last Sunday.

It's my favourite PINK colour!

Bro got a PS3..

Thanks mummy for the laptop!

Love hut

2010-02-24T23:12:00.003+08:00

Someone is getting better and better not only in sweet-talking but also in handicrafts.

Today received this special little hut and a box of dark chocolate from him.

I was stunned when I saw the little house.

It was made by him, with match-sticks only.

It is so nice, and I was so touched.

Little Enqi asked me why jiujiu didn't give her one as well?

And she said that she is going to make one for herself too when she grows up!

Thanks!!!

Ps. It is too sad that the photo doesn't show the result of the skill, it looks far better than in this picture.

Chingay Parade 2010

2010-02-21T23:07:00.001+08:00

Chingay 2010 is over.
Channel 8 has just broadcasted the parade and I managed to spot our troop for a few seconds though can't see our faces clearly.
And I must say I have really enjoyed being one of the Samba dancers.
We had fun for all the training sessions.

I would definitely join again for Chingay 2011.

Needless to add on, we have taken millions of photos and they are being uploaded to facebook.
Do check it out!

3 CAs next week, I don't know how am I going to die from this!.
Missed so many lectures and tutorials, my godness!!!!!

Chingay Rehearsal 060210

2010-02-08T18:13:00.006+08:00

The photos taken by Jun Hon on 30/01/10 are too small =(

Anyway,
I am very tired now from the lack of sleep, but it's okay, will take a nap after uploading some pictures on Chingay.
My friends have been asking me what costume am I wearing and how's the Chingay training.
I have taken many photos while waiting for the rehearsals on Saturday, but I can't upload all, it's PA's rule.
I have to do so after the actual Chingay Parade.
So, here are some individual ones I think should be alright to share with you guys:

Before having make-up

The process...

and After..

My back view. I feel COLD~

I was allowed to leave from the F1 pit as I was rushing to the Airport.
For only two rounds of rehearsals, we reached at 4.30 and left at 11+ pm.
Ample time wasted on waiting!!
After the event, I quickly changed ON THE SPOT and used wet tissue to remove the make-up then headed towards the airport.
Luckily the flight delayed for two hours, or else I wouldn't be able to make it on time.

High expenses for the month

2010-02-02T21:56:00.006+08:00

Oh mon Dieu!!!!

I have calculated a few times, and everytime the calculation shows: $1820.09!

I just can't bring myself to believe that I have spent a total of S$1820.09 in this whole controlled month of January!

I know that I have spent a lot this month but thought the sum won't hit a 4-digit figure, and after a calculation, it does!
My highest expenses in a day is $477.31 while lowest is $4.40.
I don't know why a student like me will spend so much in just one month.
And, this month I have been quite thrifty and selective in buying things since I will be recording down every single cent I spend.
Furthermore, whenever I am with my boyfriend he would pay for all our meals and some other things, really there's no reason why I spent so much.

Gosh, I have not bought my New Year clothes yet, how?

If not for the records, I wouldn't know how much I will spend in the future and had spent in the past years when I didn't control my money then.

Seriously, no more free tuition to friends, no more embarrassments in taking my own money back, yes that's the way!

*Learn THE PAST; Enjoy THE PRESENT and Plan THE FUTURE!*

Change in name

2010-01-25T23:02:00.005+08:00

I have changed my name officially from WANG YAJUAN to KATHY ONG YAJUAN!
It costs so damn expensive, I have spent about $300 today and there are more documents to be amended.
That means money is to be spent again.
Regretted a little!
Many people thought that I have nothing better to do, and commented that KATHY WANG is so much nicer than KATHY ONG!
It is actually the same, ONG and WANG is the same surname in Chinese, so I have NOT changed my surname at all, my friends.
The change is because I just don't like my name to be always at the bottom of a class list!
Lolx.
Anyway changing name is really troublesome and expensive!!!

Today I have travelled so much because after I reached ICA then I found that my name has been spelt wrongly from Juan to Jun.
So headed back to the Lawyer house and back to ICA Building again.
After I got home for a nap, went to AMK with Yang again.
Lolx.

My journey for today:
1) Yishun to Bugis
2) Bugis to Lavendar
3) Lavendar to Bugis
4) Bugis to Lavendar
5) Lavendar to Yishun
6) Yishun to Ang Mo Kio
7) Ang Mo Kio to Yishun

Thanks for the Shilin Chicken yang :)

Is she lying?

2010-01-24T19:58:00.003+08:00

I have found out something :

A friend of mine is lying to me!
I don't know whether is he or she the one lying, but why she said that yet denied it in front of me when I told my friends? She said I remembered it wrongly?! I have checked with him and he said no, but why she wants to lie to me? Thought it's nothing harmful but why? I won't compete with you or whatever !

Hate it, leave it!

2010-01-22T11:20:00.002+08:00

There are really weird people around us.

Yesterday when I was on my way to school and approaching Jurong east MRT Station, there was this Western Black talking loudly on his phone. And to every commuters' and my surprises, he was criticizing Singapore! He told his friend over the phone: " Singapore is fucking smelly and filthy.. And now I have to squeeze with those stupid Filipinos.. It is not a place for human to stay.. I wanna go back soon..." etc. Mr Black looks in his late 30s or early 40s. Almost all could hear him on the train cabin. I was rather pissed off then and if not for I have lessons I might have argued with him. So I just kept my eyes fixed at him. A foreign worker saw, looked at me and smiled.

Well, if Singapore really stinks, then please, Mr Black, go back to your own country, the one filled with perfumed atmosphere!

In order to improve Singapore's economy, the government has given entry to more and more foreign talents, new immigrants and workers. Now, Singapore is no long the 'original' Singapore, some new immigrants are still criticizing Singapore though they are staying here. Also during peak hours, public transports are saturated with passengers, jobs never enough to feed all the hungry job-seekers. Then the result is some Singaporeans will migrate to other countries. Is this what the Government really wants? I understand that everyone will be loyal to their own country, however I am not asking them to forget their roots and be loyal to Singapore. What everyone is expecting is the basic courtesy to the host country, the local people. At least not to criticize the country they visit publicly.

Anyway,

Hate it, leave it!

2010-01-20T21:09:00.001+08:00

Happy Birthday Ryan Bro !!!

Celebrated on Saturday night, tonight will just stay home to eat the 2KG cake and home-made Takoyaki!!

Love you dear bro =)

First day of school

2010-01-12T21:47:00.000+08:00

School officially started yesterday, but for many others and I, school starts from today.
My lessons for today were from 9.30am to 12.30pm.
I reached LKC at about 9.45am and then Siyu told me that Zhiyuan and him were stunned when I stepped into the lecture theatre.
They said I have changed.
Then Laihui was besides me and he said perhaps because I have become slimmer?
Next was ZHiwei, before he went to buy drink he told me that today I become prettier!
BS1004 lecturer dismissed us one hour earlier, at 11.30, so I met Faye outside LKC and she said I turned matured today!!
In just one morning, I have received five different comments.
LOLZ.

Perhaps, but I see nothing difference in myself.

Accompanied Faye to get her things done and met Jing for lunch till about 3.30pm.
Was quite a tiring day for me, had a nap from 7pm till now.

Tomorrow yet another early day for me.

Damn.

2010-01-06T00:48:00.001+08:00

It all kudos to you, now I can't coax myself to sleep.

So many thoughts in my mind now.

Damn it!!!

Happy BD Pauline!

2010-01-04T00:31:00.005+08:00

Happy Birthday to Ah Girl, Pauline Teo, my primary school friend cum neighbour=)

Wang Wang and I went to her Chalet at Downtown East just now, 03/01/10, but we two had not much to talk to her though as she was so busy hosting.

Perhaps next time?

Bonne année

2010-01-01T23:55:00.003+08:00

Happy New Year to all!
Bonne année !!!

Yesterday spent one night chatting and playing games at Jing's house.
Had fun especially when all trying to make Takoyaki.
All thanks to Tady for the wonderful "balls".
Hahha.

Left her house at 6am this morning, reached home at 7plus and after that slept till 2pm.
Had dinner with Dardar at Breeks Woodlands.
Now, playing cards with family =)

It's our anniversary today.
Let's celebrate that we haven't broken up. LOLX.

Miserable

2009-12-28T01:35:00.001+08:00

Badminton/swimming/cycling

My weekend

2009-11-23T15:31:00.020+08:00

Dedicated my weekends for darling and dear friends.

Friday after my Maths paper, I went home to take a nap and went out to meet dear for movie and dinner.

Then before dinner we went to take neoprints and as usual, we were rushing through the whole process.
Even the photos here weren't chosen by us.
Haha.

In the restaurant, while waiting for our food to come, we took a few photos to compensate for the horrible neoprints taken earlier:

On Saturday, I woke up at 12 noon, relaxed for a while then headed to Orchard to meet yang they all.

While waiting for Tad to come, Jing, Hong Yang and I walked around orchard finding for pool.

It had been really hard on my feet especially because I was wearing heels.

My God.

We played two hours of pool at Cineleisure and my skill, if any, was really bad.

Teamed with Hong and we lost all the matches to Yang and Jing.

They were just too pro, they aimed so accurately man!

After the pool session, as Tad was still on her way so we went to take neoprints since we have not taken neoprints together for ages!

Haha, like Dardar and I, we were rushing again.

It seems like we have always been rushing and shouting when taking neoprints.

And the results are as follow:

We ALL felt so cheated because the tone was too dark and stupid us were waiting at one corner for our photos not knowing that the they were on the other side of the machine!

In the end we had only 80 seconds to decorate these photos.

Yes of course we ran out of time.

Then, we decided to take one more round:

This is so MUCH better isn't it?

And the best is, we had ample time to do our decorations.

We even had the time to joke over something Jing labelled on the photos and it was so funny on my part!

Haha.

Hong - Artistic *yi shu*

Kat - Playing instrument *qian zhou*
Jing - Playing WILDball *ye qiu*

Yang - On land (Army) *lu shang*

Haha..

Love this photo!

When Tad came, we walked to Wheel Lock and dined in at NYDC.

Thank you Yang for the treat!

*Thank you so much to my sisters Jing and Tad for coming out thought it's our exam period.

Jing had wasted one whole Sat just for me, and her paper is on Monday!!

Sorry dear, Goodluck! LOVE you......

On Sunday, I met up with my EkyLites girls at Causeway.

We dined in at Ichibang.

Had a splendid time catching up on life.

Thank you my dears for the presents and the wonderful dinner!

Kat sincerely thanks all her dear friends, whom-she-can't-live-without, for the presents and precious time spent on her.

Love you guys and all the best to those who are having exams now.

Love you!

Happy birthday to us*

Happy Birthday To BRYAN LIM - The handsome &&
Huiqun - The pretty

I am really glad that I have added yet a few good friends to my friendship list again.
Recently due to a hectic school life, I have stayed with Angela once or twice a week.
Then as Junda stays at the same Hall as us(one block away), he has been a great help all the while.
Every time when I stayed over he will never fail to ask me if I need a blanket or phone charger or whatever things.
For example, yesterday was a cold night, then he offered me his blanket despite not having an extra one.
Again just now he asked Daniel to help me pack food as he knew that I have not eaten my dinner.
He came to my room and passed me the dinner plus a mug of hot Milo!
How thoughtful of him!
Junda, really thanks so much for being so helpful as always, not mentioning the numerous times where you helped me to print notes, buy things and carry my stuffs etc..
A BIG thanks to you!

I am so lucky to have so many friends treating me so well here in NTU.
Also, not forgetting to thank Tiwi, who knows that I always can't wake up and lost my way in NTU.
So she had actually tried to wake me up early in various mornings, text-ed me the locations of our lab sessions and how to get there!
Thanks so much girl!

And of course my dear A14, so many of you are really super nice and cute!!!

Loves <3 Tiwi Junda Jiaying Yixuan Laihui Huijie Siyu Sandy Chunling Shengen Zhiwei etc....

The list never ends but I got to study for my Econs and Physics now!!!
Dying ---

COunt DOwn to 19/11/09 : 4 more days!!!

Thank you guys!

2009-10-31T23:03:00.001+08:00

Just now when I was at Doreen there, Yang text-ed me asking me to decide on a day to celebrate my birthday.
Actually one month before my birthday (exactly on 17th October), Yang had already booked me for either 14th Nov or 21st Nov to be available for them.
Then just now we have discussed again and fixed it on 21st Nov since Wen will be coming back from Perth on 16 Nov, so will just wait for her and celebrate together since we have not seen her for so long.
It will also be better for me since I have 3 papers the week after the 14th Nov.

Goshhhh*

I am, as always, so grateful that I have friends like Yang they all.
Honestly, they have been so great, always place me in the first place and understand me for being not able to meet them at times due to my never-ending commitments.
Last Thursday Yang came to NTU especially for me.
We had dinner at the Cafe and Friday I met him again for Lunch at Northpoint.
It feels good and relax to have just simple meals and random chats =)

I love to have more:0

Swenson's @ NorthPoint

Pervertic guy!

2009-10-05T20:51:00.003+08:00

Took some pictures during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Look like birthday cake right?
Hehe..
03.10.2009

Today fell sick so didn't go to school, stay at home couldn't study for tomorrow's chemistry test too.
I felt so stupid these few days.
Why I cant get anything right?
I dun like it!!
I am SAD.

05.10.2009

And oh, I have pasted some crystals on my phone, looks cool = )
Thank you jiie:)

Just now on my way out, I saw a man dressed in a brown underwear and a white T-shirt walking bare-footed towards my flat here. I was scared so I quickly pretended that I was using the phone and tried not to look at him. Then when I walked across the road, he walked past me diagonally, towards the table where an old lady sat. I knew something was going to happen but I was too scared to turn back to help the old lady. Then after a few seconds, I heard the lady shouting loud. Again, I tried to speed up and not turning back to take a look. I guess the guy must have flashed to the auntie. I was extremely panic and guilty so I quickly rang Dardar. SORRY. I FELT GUILTY* serious.

--Girls, be careful when walking home alone in Yishun Ave 5--

My permed hair.

2009-09-23T11:04:00.000+08:00

Finally received all the photos from xp. *Thx*
I permed my hair that night eating with the girls at Northpoint.
19.09.2009, Satursday.
Met Hong and Yang at Northpoint and they commented said it's not nice.
The same set of hairstyle received many praises from my girls.
Haha, seriously I am neutral, I think normal, nothing much to comment on.
Anyway to be frank, I never trust Yang and Hong's taste, they are just so... so different!!
Yang's taste is forever so different, Hong's okay sometimes but still.... LOLX.
Hahaha.
Well, my girls said that the photos don't show the elegance they saw in me in person.
So I assume that my hair style that night was much better than the photos here.
LOLX.

We girls at the park next to our houses.

Haha, I am so much taller than Huaqing!!! Thanks to my heels.

Actually we took alot of photos with funny poses but too bad almost all are red-eyed.

---------------------------------------------------

On the other hand, I watched *Hearts of Greed* just now, I cried so terribly hard.
I couldn't control my tears at all.
They just cascaded down my cheek.
Oh my god its so touching!
I LOVE Alfred!! I don't want him to die!!!
I really LOVE him.
OMG!!!!! He's so damn handsome man!
And Chang Zaixin is so pretty my god.
Then while I was watching, I kept thinking of Dar, thinking what will I do if he dies before me.
Then I called him and cried:"Alfred!! Where are you!! "! LOLX.
And I watched for 5 hours, didn't study for tomorrow's computing test. *sinful*
I am going to watch again now.. Bye~
