heard this song when we were on the way to have the annual FANG's dinner. and i quite like it! =)

well, it wasn't dinner in the past. but as time passes, people grow older, we can hardly take supper. so we pushed forward to dinner in recent years because supper is ssSSssupeRRRrrr unhealthy.

anyways, we had dinner at this restaurant called hai jing lou. it is located in toa payoh. apparently, we had eaten at this restaurant verRrry long time ago (and i mean it when i said that..haha). this 24-hours restaurant was originally at the kallang riverside, near indoor stadium. we ate in this restaurant when i was rRrreaLlyyyYyy young.

i'm feeling fever-ish. i guess it's bedtime...erm..after i settled BREAKOUT!

back in SG last night. a four days-three nights trip to KL. well, honestly if you asked me is it fun or not, all i say is NOPE!


but then, i've got three great companions with me and that made the trip h*ll lotsa fun manz! i love my travel buddies! the guys didn't show any sign of impatience while Cylysce and i were shopping. phew! something i learnt from the trip: when poking Jun Hao, please wear a face mask cos' he can get VERY violent.

we left for KL early in the morning on 26th Dec and arrived at about 3pm like that. the coach we took was not too bad (at least better than those i used to take..hee). the bus stopped somewhere in Yong Peng where all the rest of the tourist coaches usually gathered. sound like some tourist spot eh.. anyway, i bought a bowl of fishball soup. fyi, it's not any other fishball soup cos' apparently, the fishball is made of this fish called erm..don't know the name of the fish lah. it cost me RM6, roughly 3sing but i still bought it cos' i love the fishball that is made of that species.

then we arrived at KL after a good half an hour of jam (roughly la...) and bought return tickets before checking into the hotel. after that, yean ching brought us to KLCC where we shop-ed and took lots of pictures.

the next day, we went to Sunway Lagoon. after visiting the scream park, i've proved a point: humans are scarier than ghost and i'm more scared of psychotic humans and 'ghost'. then we went to the water park and finally the amusement park. all i can say it's marketing technique is quite successful (haha..)i guess the highlights that day was still shopping cos' i bought two MNG top for RM60+, which is around 30sing lah! so happy!

more shopping at times square on the third day of our trip though i didn't buy anything except food. =)

talking about food, we went to KFC cos' the chicks are so much fresher than SG's, McDonald's for service (haha..i'm kidding! i believe we can get 10 apple pies at their rate of service), A&W for the rootbeer float (woohoo!), Kenny Rogers for the so-called 'buy one, get one free' deal since it is halved the SG pricing. =)

cos' of the food, i had to exercise off the extras (hee..) i ran for 20mintues, walk for 10minutes and climb the stairs back to home. cool manz! the next session i'll increase the running time to 25mintues till i can run for 60mintues. i think by then i should be ready for my first 10km marathon (i hope!)

alright, when i get the pictures, i'll post it here. so stay tune!
back.

went to Pulai Spring over the weekend again. haha.. it took us 4hours to stamp our passports. and we "bought" the immigration cards.

then my dad went golfing with his friends. i played too but only at the driving range. as my mom and sis are more indoor, i went to practise my swing on my own. then there is this Indian person came and chat with me.

to quote one of the conversation:
him: how long have you learnt?
me: just learnt. u?
him: two years.
me: wah!

then after that, he showed me his "powerful" swing. but all i could see was that rolling golf balls. haha.. actually, i didn't just learn. come to think about it, i started playing when i was in Secondary 3. i'm proud of my swing because can 'smoke' people. for a couple of times, the other golfers and 1 golf professional thought i have a handicap. haha..in fact, i haven't even gotten a PC. cool! my dad rocks!

at night, we went to dinner at some night market and we bought Rocky. it looks like singapore's pocky. apparently, it's quite nice.

results will be out at 1pm. i'm not worried cos' what is done cannot be undone. anyway, i've no more way to change my CAP. so, it's like whatever attitude.

2 more days to Christmas! hmm..East Coast? West Coast? Punggol?

3 more days to KL! can't wait =)

today is Day 2 of 106 Spring Cleaning. and i find the weirdest things in my parents room. it was tiring cos' there were actually 26 cabinets of all shapes and sizes. from my dad's working desk to his cabinet that is filled with socks to my mom's wardrobe that is full of toilet papers.

haha..looks like our family has very serious intestinal problem. actually, it's all the discount in the supermarket's fault! everytime we go grocery shopping in FairPrice, my mom will check out if the toilet rolls are on discount. if they are, we will buy two packs. yARpz, two packs.

this is my dad's favorite picture. other than being proud of the Fangs, he takes pride in his swing. i remembered that there was once when i just reached home from somewhere, he showed it to me before i could even say 'hi, dad!' haha..my proud father!
but other than his favourite picture of his golf swing, he has the most interesting collections. apparently, he is also quite an antique lover too. he has lots of old coins in the most absurd place you can find. for example, he can keep his old coins in those ancient jam mug-look-alike-glass (refer to the picture below). because he NEVER touches them all year but only keep them to collect dust. so i suggested to seal the mug-look-alike-glass with a plastic cover.
the main purpose is so that next year, i just have the change the plastic cover (no sweat!). secondly, so that he realized that i've helped to clean his working desk (so don't dirty them again!) thirdly, just to irritate him (haha..because i think he doesn't like to have plastic cover on his stuff). but seriously, i don't care because he won't scold me. all he does is quietly remove the plastic cover without my knowledge.
sorry, dad! you've a gl daugther.
i hate zhao ju. i remember vivdly that i used to cheat on that section. my best friend who sat in front of me used to help me with that section of the test. she helped me complete the sentences. in return, i helped her with tian xie han zi. she was good because she could zhao two different sentences, one for her test paper; and one for mine. i am dense too. i couldn't make out what it is trying to say. also, i don't want to hurt my brain cells and get brain damage for thinking and reading too much into it.

i just dont understand.

it seemed to me that there is really something to it and 'I'm not telling you (full-stop!)' am i just really being too sensitive? Or is it that i'm just thinking too much? i really dislike the feeling when i'm not told of something. i feel that there is something more to it. it is quite annoying because it's like zhao ju. i've to guess what is the second part of the story.

if i am, like what you say, thinking too much, then tell me what is it. i believe that will stop me from interpreting too deeply.

*stupid blogger! nv save my blog. now i've to type for the blardy second time. so fake now!
PRESS THE PANIC BUTTON!

i'm so scared. it's too dark and hazy ahead.

no commitment, no cash, no communications. it's too individualistic.

this Christmas, i shan't ask Santa to make my friends and boyfriend fat. instead, i shall ask to make the SP passion burn furious. let it shine, let it shine. shine on SP0809 and lead the way to success.

welcome home!
this is for you. though not very well photoshop-ped, i hope you like it.


i miss you too.

a bicycle just cycled past. oh no, it's illusion. still, she checks her phone. it can't be him. memories start to flood in. SWEET! a smile finally wipes on her face. yesss....in less than 24hours. =)

just had lunch. my mom's green bean soup with red bean glutinous rice ball. satisfied. =)

because next week is dong zhi and it's confirmed that we are away at P. Spring, so my dad suggested that we shall eat it today. apparently, he keeps talking about it and we get the hint so mom asked him to look for the black sesame flavor. yay!

but so sad, dad couldn't find the flavor so we decided to buy the red bean flavor. hmm..not very nice but at least it's not that sweet.

went swimming this morning. wait, i mean dad and i went to the swimming complex twice but only get to swim for once. i told him that the pool only opens at 8am. apparently, dad still woke me up at 6am! according to his "source", it opens early on weekends. but well, since his "source" uses the pool more often than me, i rest my case.

so we braved through the drizzle at 6.50am to the complex. when we reached at 7am, i was so happy but to find that the swimming complex opens only at the time i've told him -8am! so we decided to walk back home because it's getting heavier and we've got nothing to do there while waiting for the complex to open.

the rain didn't stop but we still didn't allow the weather to spoil my plans =) we decided to drive this time to the swimming complex..haha..lazy bones! dad and i finally swam (in the rain)!

it's so fun that my dad wanted to learn swimming cos' that means he is my new swimming kaki. i'm always his golf disciple.

alright, he just whistled at me and showing me his swing. he means "shall we go golfing now?" time to go!

i simply don't understand her.

if she can't control her temper, then sleep more. if she needs to sleep to tame her horrendous temper, then don't club. she should know that she can't club all night because it makes her lethargic. i think she should learn how to CONTROL her temper. i didn't force you to go clubbing and make you sleep for only four hours. don't blame others and don't even show your attitude.

anyway, i'm sorry. sorry for not giving in but sometimes, your attitude really sucks. you may think that i'm writing to defend myself but seriously, i don't care. WHATEVER! excuse me, i'm not freaking not attentive. seriously, one day maybe you should try walking in front of me and i try calling you out with my kitten pur volume in a busy street. =) for your info, my ears are NOT FOR SURROUND SOUND. my ears only capture vibrations from the sound in front, not behind me. i hope i make myself clear enough. can't believe you don't even get such simple scientific explanation for my "inattentiveness".

just in case you haven't realised that, i'm losing my patience. that's why i refused to give in to you. sometimes, you just have to know that you have pushed people's limit. don't go around throwing your tantrum on people without thinking if you have a valid reason for it.

i'm guilty of that too but, unlike you, at least i know when i've pushed people to the edge.

after one freaking afternoon. shucks! this is super slow. and guess what, this is the second attempt. oh my goodness, i realised i did wrongly towards the end of Attempt No. 1. so i've to delete everything and re-do. actually, not that hard so i shan't complain that much.

If Everyone Cared - Nickelback

From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you'd be mine
But here we are, we're here tonight

Singing Amen, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I'm alive

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We'd see the day when nobody died
And I'm singing

Amen I, I'm alive
Amen I, I'm alive

And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along

Singing Amen I'm alive
Singing Amen I'm alive

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We'd see the day when nobody died
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We'd see the day when nobody died

And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We'd see the day when nobody died

We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day when nobody died

just have the sudden urge to share this song. it's nice, isn't it. sometimes, life is so unfair but there is nothing you can do about it. simply because the only strenght is you and you thought to yourself, "if everyone cared".

i'm not some noble girl who goes to great extent to help these people. all i'm saying is, if you think you had a bad day, i hope you will stay positive and cheer up. because nothing is worst than those who are living in poverty. when i say poverty, i mean those people who have no food or shelter over their heads.

by the way, you do your part to end the world hunger by clicking http://freerice.com/. not only you can brush up your volcabulary, 20 grains of rice is donated to the hungry people. =)

yessss....kate spade this EARLY Christmas (and birthday!)

my sis just came back from HK and she bought a bag and specs. i bet you can see that the handle is red and pink in color. my preferred colors! haha..actually, any color can be my favorite color as long as it matches the item best as compared to other color. hee.. typical woman, she can even be fickle with her favorite color..hmm.. =)

anyway, this bag is reversible. in another word, two bags for price of one! haha..now a typical auntie..oh wells.. =P yup, the reverse is a silver bag with a beige label. so apparently, if you want to show-off the branding, the reverse is a better choice..haha.. but i guess it's not necessary cos' it's quite obvious that the design is kate spade. =)

the second present that i've got from my sis is the Prada specs from her! my mom thinks it looks great on me. so much better than the current black checker-ed specs. but i love them both! guess what, it is red in color. haha..it's either my sis is obsessed with red or she thinks that this color speaks so much about me. Oops! that's not very nice actually.

finally, starting to send out resumes. it's quite boring at home. nothing to do. roaming around in the house as if my house very big like that..haha.. if not, i'm surfing the net all day. i stayed at home for the second day and i'm complaining already. gosh! can't believe it. anyway, hope i find a job soon so that i can start contributing back to the family, my hostel fees, my savings and etc.

not CAP 5 lah..no chance liao! but golf like Wie; swim like Phelps; run like Bolton.. haha..just kidding! but i want to pick up golf again! hopefully, i can earn my handicap soon and play with my dad in the green. then swim frequently and leisurely since it's my favorite sport. also, i planned to train for a run..say a short run then a real marathon. not very ambitious but i guess it's a good start. =) hee..

time to go!

went clubbing yesterday. drank long island tea, and then a little bit of submarine and graveyard. i think i drank to my own graveyard.

i started the night with the loooooong island tea. then, i think it got me on a submarine because i could the tipsiness sinking in. after that, the drink that was named graveyard - the final drink that ended my night.

so embarrassed about my atrocious behavior and i am positive that i'm not going to share that in this blog. if you're there and you've seen it, lucky (unlucky) you! hopefully, i won't get blacklisted (haha!)

whether lucky or not, i am convinced that I AM A FORTUNATE GIRL. he was very meticulous and noticed the difference in me. he was there for me when i was at my most 'lang bei' moments. i'm so happy that he appreciates and his compliments. it makes my day. =) though i don't really say it, i really do appreciate all the things he does for me; and say to me.


HE ROCKS MY WORLD!

keke..i love this picture the most! =) i think i still look better without specs. pretty pretty!

was revising for my module and came across this video... ...



i bet you had a good laugh at this stewpig CSI parody. anyway, i was reading about this interesting to share this phenomenon - cultural capital.

the reason why you're laughing at some of the stuff in this video is because from your learning and day-to-day experiences, you know that some things just dont work this way (like in the video). i mean, imagine someone who doesn't know English, do you think he or she is able to lol or rofl? How about if a person seldom chat online and that person doesn't know what is lol or rofl, do you think he or she is able to understand what i am writing about.

i think education is very important for us to know what the heck is going on in this world. it provide us the capability to read about news, write about our experiences on blogs and express our thoughts and feelings.

but then, why people still say stupid education? well, i believe that education doesnt make people stupid. it only makes us more square and uncreative. gosh, what a topic to talk about when i'm unofficially graduating tomorrow at 11am; making myself so unmotivated to mug for the paper.

i just realised education has turned me silly. the lecturer for tomorrow's paper mentioned before that there's no right or wrong answer in this paper (hooray!) and that we should not restrict ourselves to what is on the notes. she encourages fresh ideas. so in my own interpretation, it is not really a mugging module. but the thought of not touching the notes makes me uncomfortable and unprepared.

question! are we really studying for the sake of knowledge or wanting a qualification? when we study for exams, are we studying for the sake of remembering for life or remembering just for the exams? see, what i mean?

alright, i shall go back to my notes and read for the sake of feeling comfy =)

Tuesday, December 2, 2008

bro dropped by last night. he showed me this video after i was complaining about my last paper. the module is Culture Industry. if you're a NM major from NUS, DO NOT TAKE THIS MODULE unless you're the self-proclaimed Diva (haha!).

i'm not studying for it. if you think the lecture notes are confusing enough, you can try reading the Readings (woohoo!) i think this module is simply complicated because it is very factual and you can relate to your lifestyle easily. but the concepts are totally... ...(speechless)

the reason for this clip is because i'm now in the 'bargaining' stage. i believe during the exam, i'll be in the 'depression' stage but luckily it's an open-booked. the lecturer said there's no right or wrong answer. so i guess have to be critical and give lots of examples; opinions and theories (if i can find any). after the exam, i'll be in 'acceptance' stage. oops! too late to do anything already.

JUST LIVE WITH NO REGRETS!
