I'm Crazy

After spending 2 hrs uploading photos to flickr, I went to delete it. Someone please explain my insane behaviour!
And then I proceed to delete my Multiply account... But account still in effect...
I think I have a Zorpia account somewhere...

Sianz.. Work tmr... dunno how to face Sup...

Alright, I missed the burial...

Not I didn't want to go, but after Mum sent us back, we didn't ask her whether they are going or not, and flopped to sleep at home. About 2 hrs later, they were already at the crematorium collecting the ashes and then going to the sea burial. Was angry and sort of talked too loudly to my Dad... thought about it, I have to blame myself for being greedy sleeper, I could just walk over there myself if I woke up earlier.
Thinking of joining YQ to Jurong Point... but I think Mum won't be too happy... Think I stayed at home bah...

So they did come...

Okie, they came, but still, they didn't realised it was my birthday. Never mind... got come is good liao... Mz stayed at bedok still travel all the way here. (Maybe they felt that it wasn't appropriate to wish me at a funeral also...)
Tmr will be the sea burial, no matter how much our heart ache, we will have to let it all go tmr.
Been having serious thought about quitting school, or converting to part time. Sup was rather pissed off with me today, coz I didn't inform him about my half day leave today. I did, but just that I sent to the wrong number without realizing it after a few hours later. Later I was told by Senior that Sup told CC to inform me that I don't have to come tmr. If it's really true, I think I will just go and convert to part time, and then go and find a job. Anyway, I just sent him an email regarding my leave tmr. If he's truly serious about firing me, fine...
Ever since I started listening to Yes 933, every year I would miss the daily birthday scope. So, I always miss the chance to "confirm" my character, whether it was really true. I would not have miss it if I report to work today, what a link of events!
Not only this, today a bamboo pole with bedsheet dropped right in front of me and Jamie, and it hit the back of a taxi. Can't imagine if we were 5 steps nearer...
Tired... of everything... feel like fleeing to somewhere and be alone...

Happy Birthday to Myself...

Not happy at all...

Been having a lot of thoughts, about the life and death, and about friends. I knew who are the friends that are truly concern . I was a little apprehensive when I smsed to a few of my frens about the death of godpa, because he wasn't directly related to me. Yet, I was really thankful to those who bothered to sms me how am I, asked me be to be strong and take care, and those who read from my blog and then smsed or tagged me (Jenny, Michelle, I'm fine now).
But there are those whom I didn't even hear a word of concern from them. When their direct relatives, be it parents or grandparents left the world, if I can't make it for the funeral, I would still send an sms (and peh kim) to show that I'm concern. However, until now, I still did not receive an sms from that gang, except asking for the location, but they didn't turn up.
Maybe I'm judging the situation too soon, coz there is still tonight. Hah, I doubt they'll remember it's my birthday also, coz ever since we grad from poly, except my 21st birthday, not an sms from them. Thanks for being such such great frens, ya right! To them, no treat, no gift! Especially someone, I still remember this someone was debating whether to give V's her present when a bunch of them were not invited to her 21st party. So much for being classmates for 3 years and celebrating each one and everyone's birthday every year. (Digress: A few of them weren't part of our clique, but if the present amounted too much, this someone would shamlessly asked them to chip in, but never once did we celebrate their birthdays. I can't really accept such behavior, but if they don't mind, I didn't speak up also. Whatever, I'm being ironical.)
I'm not after the gifts, all I like is people remembering my birthday and wished me that's all! Maybe because I'm a gal without that special someone to celebrate with me (ha ha), so I yearn for are warm greetings from them! Of course, presents are bonus, but 礼尚往来,they'll get one from me too!
Maybe I shouldn't asked for this, coz I myself is guilty of not remembering sec friends' birthday, and owing presents. Actually I do remember, I just can't be bothered or it slipped off my mind. Many times I told myself, send an sms, send an email, drop a phone call, but many times I also forgot because of school work, job work etc. However, it is constantly in my mind to "repay" them their "kindness" and friendship .
I shouldn't even be complaining about this, coz I had already done it before, but I just can't helped it.
I should always remember: 做事不求回报,得助要懂感恩。Same to everyone, you'll be happier!
我要说到做到!

Traumatise

Saw the last look of godpa before they sealed the coffin... The look was unbearable... T_T

“人生变幻无常,虽然他走的很痛苦,可是也是一种解脱。没了肉体,但他的心智还在, 他会知道你们对他的思念。”

Sea bury on Tuesday... =(

Sad weekend

My godpa passed away in a car accident, something which we would never expect. Make me realise life is so fragile after all.
Godpa and godma always dropped by our house every Saturday for dinner, tmr, we'll be going there instead, to pay our last respects for him.
CNY isn't going to be happy again this year. =(
On a different note, I'm to going to give all my force towards my project, Sup may be nasty at times, but still, the things he said were true. We were unfocus and slow. Gonna bug all my zai zai friends for programming!
Memories of my godpa helping me and Jia in our art keep flooding back... Sad...

Eh

how come my Multiply entry didn't appear here? And the time is wrong also!

K.O

Totally KO due to lack of sleep. I napped from 4 plus to 7 plus. At the very least, I didn't wake up, eat and sleep again. Ha ha. Was cleaning the house after a sumptous "breakfast". We bought too much bread, and since our stove was under repair, so Mum didn't cook meals but eggs instead. So we were like eating breakfast for dinner. Still, we had some really nice chicken wings.
Suppose to do my lanterns, but then hor.. lazy lah... then keep watching tv. Hmm... tmr maybe have to do some work also. Argh... my list of things to do is getting longer and longer! Must clear them before CNY!!!
Smelly Jamie was playing with the measuring tape and acted like she was at a slimming saloon: asked me to measure her arm, her thigh, her waist, and she did that to me too. My thigh measures at a stunning 24 inches! I could just die, my thigh is as thick as a slim girl's waist! Adding salt to my wound, Jamie exclaimed very loudly to Mum, "Wah! 大姐的腿很粗leh! " Mum almost died laughing lor! 气死我也!
Alright, I shall let it be a motivation! (No more bak kwa!) :p

Tired week

This week flew past just like a hurricane, no time for anything. Work is still progressing slowly, achieving some things at least, and not zuo bo like in the first week. Sup joked to us now, which is better if not I'll always on guard for anything unkind from him. We all busy, he's busier, and thus he had no time to tell us what he wants yet. Anyway, we have to do more research on Tomcat server also. Bleahz! Must always says "yes, I'll try to find out" instead of "I dont think so" for any request from him. I was so embarassed when he asked if users could download file to server, and I promptly answered "No, I don't think so" which later he digressed he did see someone did it before. Paiseh siah...
Went to work with Mum today, and we shopped around at Bukit Timah Shopping centre while waiting for the rain to subside. I can't find any lantern making packages, mostly were those manufactured kind which I don't like. I love making lanterns every CNY. The only time I didn't do it was last year coz Grannie passed away and we were told we wouldn't be celebrating CNY, so I didn't bother to do.
Time to start making! ^_^ Shall napped first. =D
I also have my report to write, shucks!!! Aiyah, don't care liao, go back office then write. Hee hee... Lanterns lanterns lanterns....

Project Kickoff!

Great! Finally did something worthy today. Installed server, loaded the software, test run, troubleshooting.
I was still having trouble with the server, somewhere the configuration was wrong. After several attempts, I still couldn't run the system. Tired, I gave up and dozed off to dreamland. When I woke up, try again, voila! It worked! CC and me was so intrigued! LOL.
We want to work, but it seems like Sup is dragging us. We did not have the necessary software, yet he's too busy to help us with all these miscellaneous stuffs. Wanna use my copy, pirated one, cannot. Bo pian, gonna drag my laptop tomorrow.
Just when everything seems perfect, the PC died on me.
What the hell... Haiz... 21 more weeks of hellish days.

My PMS like that one ar?

Ever since my Taiwan boss, Wendy told me she had the urge to clean things whenever her period was coming, this "curse" somehow also got onto me. Before the age of 18, my PMS was the normal anger outburst, swollen and painful tits, bloated stomach ... wat else? Anyway, it was all except cleaning things lah, even though I'm a neat and tidy and clean person by nature. It just got worse when it is it.
That year, my period was late for 3 months. I remembered a pri. school classmate once told me, it was not good that period was delayed, thus it was advisable to go to see doc once period is delayed. This was what her Mom, a nurse told her. Actually, I think the Mum forgot to tell her if she had sex, period didn't come mean big trouble, that's why must see doc. LOL.
Anyway, at the inocent age I was (*puke), I went to see a doc, coz I tot I would have tumour or cyst or shit inside the uterus that was blocking the normal flow of blood. Anyway, I cleared the questions about sex and boyfriend (all negative), she prescribed me some pills, which I came to know later that was the "Pills", 避孕药, which were actually hormonal pills to regulate the unbalance. So, after 3 days of consumption, I was working as usual at the shop. That day, I had an exceptional urge to wipe the dust. Usually, all I need was to wipe the benches, the platform, dust the cartoon figurines. However, that day, I did microcleaning, i.e. I use an old toothbrush to wash every figurines, wiped the board and nails, move the stuffs out of cupboard and wiped, scrapped the dried glue on the glass, and wiped the aluminium shunt. Boss Wendy saw me so hardworking at cleaning, asked me whether was I having it. I told her I'm waiting for it, had seen doc and ate the pills. That was when she told me about her weird "habit" before her one. I didn't really believe it coz I tot it was her cleaning obsession kicking in.
Mine came the next morning. That afternoon, I told her about it that it was really intriguing to have such PMS. Since then, this has become my syndrome. More accurate than calculating the days. Yesterday I was still harping on my late period, but it came today. So freaky hor? But then at least, it turned out in a good way and I don't have to suffer physical trauma.
So guys (if there are still any left reading it), observe ur gf's pattern, and you might save urself from stepping her tail every month. =D

Tiring day

Was out early to go and clean Mr. T's condo with Mum today. It took the both of us about 3 hours to clean. The amount of ciggie ash amounted under my feet was so thick that you would have thought the house was a furnace.
Reached home at around 3pm, the clean freak in me started wiping the cupboard, and organised the VCDs. This is a sign... a bad omen... that my period is coming. It better come soon, been late for 2 months. Mum and Jia were rather happy about it tho (about the clean freak I am, not my period), coz I would happily wipe, clean and wash with no complaints (as in continuously, usually I clean one furniture, then I happy liao).
I don't know how I had put on so much weight. I couldn't fit into the jeans I wore in Oct last year without feeling uncomfortable. I tried my jeans just now and it was so bloody tight. Never mind, exercise is on the way! Need to maintain strict diet now... Else after CNY, I'm a hot air balloon liao. I think the increase in my weight cause hormones inbalance in me, thus my period is late, and maybe post exam stress, or maybe project stress. Hee hee.
Had a serious miscommunication with Jia just now. Either we had lost the 默契,or she seriously need some language theraphy. =P, lol. We were in the bathroom together, I was washing my hands and she was washing the w.c. Then she went to pick up the left over bath water, wanting to flush down the mess. Instead of asking to me to make way for her, she was telling me to “吸屁股”!Baffled, I asked her what she meant. It turned out she wanted me to suck in my stomach (the bathroom isn't very big, and we aren't very small) so that she could squeezed between me and the door. Unable to contain my laughter, I outburst and said, "吸肚啦,不是屁股啦!屁股怎样吸?"
Realising her error, but then by now she was cackling like mad, but still manage to muster 3 words to answer me, "鼻孔咯!"
With so much smell of humour in the air, I joked back, "什么鼻孔。。。是屁孔咯,有没有!" and at the same time, point my finger at my ass. =D
We went crazy with laughter after that. Ha ha ha.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, 木木田心人土土!

Wah ha ha ha! TGIF! (Sat by now)

Friday is the most expected day of every week for working class, never did I yearn for Fri as I did today when I was studying. This week had been slow like a snail and torturous like the Texas Chainsaw.
I gave up writing on my food entry, coz I am plain lazy, and my dinner can be quite sumptous at times, like today. We had fried dory fish, mixed fried veggie consists of straw mushrrom, button mushroom, fried egg beancurd, carrots and mini corn, mee sua with an egg per person, and including 2 leftover dishes yesterday. Skip rice for dinner also no use in such case liao, coz the oil intake is already a lot. Since 1 Jan until now, I don't see myself getting smaller despite skipping rice for dinner, but I drank soup and ate the dishes. Argh... next step, exercise!!! Kickboxing on Sun!!! Yeah!!! Sweat!!! I need to sweat!!!
I always screwed things up for myself. If I had read the IA guide, I would have follow the guidelines set inside. I wasn't daring enough to be proactive; don't have enough common sense to be initiative; not serious enough to remember everything and take note of everything. This week went by slowly at work coz there wasn't much to do, so I thought of writing my report. Then, I don't have the report format so I didn't do it. Then today, while packing my stuffs out of boredom, I found the guide and saw there was a report format and sample too. Then, I did a 2 pages of report within 4 hours. If I had fully utilized the 5 days, I would have done more!
Then, CC is a more passive person than me, thus I had to lead him to do the project. I would have love to go to the server room and play with the system, but my shy nature (er hem, I'm shy in new environment) stopped me coz there were people around. I think Sup is pissed off that we were so nonchalent about the project bah, we didn't even bother to test the PC he brought for us until today. We started off too slack le. So I told CC we must complete a bit of the system (the easy part) on Monday. I must let my Sup think highly of us, I must show him the independence in us!
The people at my workplace not very friendly at all, luckily the few of us (IA students) bonded quite well, so at least we aren't so lonely in our A5 cubicles. We shared food, jokes, stationery and everything. The only quiet one is the Vietnamnese guy, coz he doesn't speak Mandarin, we tend to leave him out of conversation. Today, we told him to go and learn Mandarin from us. Ha ha.
CC can be quite a joker at times, but the other guy, JW, is even lamer than him. I'm also one of the jokers, but always kanna verbal bully by JW. Ha ha... Turned out JW is AMKsian too, one yr my senior. I threaten to show the rest his tutu look if he continue suan me. LOL.
Time like this flies by very soon!

Tio meh

CC and I kanna got a reprimand for nothing. I think Sup (short for supervisor) wanna give us some 下马威 first,so we were being lectured for about 30 minutes, more or less a bit of like life lecture about him, 倚老卖老 (he's only 35 lor)lol... Points taken by me of what he said:
  1. Must finish whatever he gave us to do
  2. Slacking is ok, but we must have a sense of responsibility
  3. Know what we want in life
  4. We youngsters boh hiew bo zuo, maybe got golden spoon tat's why like that (I find it a big insult to my character)
  5. Find an easy job and spend the rest of the life like that, u want? (he prefer to slog like a bull)
  6. He will take care of the shit throw out by the top management, meaning he will shield us the arrows lah.
  7. Praises he will share with us.
  8. One team only one leader, do not try to be a leader if you are not one (then he said about why he didn't said anythng during meeting earlier, coz only can have one person to lead, if too many want to lead will lead to "war" which CC and I did witness.)

He lor soh too much, but basically, he just saying the same things all over again and his life story up till now. I damn suay, was sandwiched by CC and MF (Sup's coworker), so Sup was looking into my eyes and keep pointing at me when he delievered examples of spoilt brat and ne'er do. My eyes were moist several times when Ifind the words he said very hurting (althought it wasn't me, I still felt like I did a lot of wrong things) but I didn't cry. I dislike such situations, furthermore the 2 of us were inocent. I mean, we had not even started on anything, but he made it like we failed to reach his goals or something. After the talk, I asked CC did we do anything wrong, CC said mostly he wanted to scold MF but didn't want to make it too ugly, so took the 2 of us to sharpen his knife.

Suay... Monday still find him quite good, today find him very kiam pa! 21 more weeks to survive... I avoid him like a plague now, unless necessary things.

CC and I also joined in the the 8.30am meeting every morning, Sup told us to be a vase there will do. Quite true, coz we are not involving in their projects, and we don't undertsand either. The team isn't very big, but so far only the ladies are more approachable. The men, most of them see us like small kids like that, shake hands also lampa no strength one. Kaoz...

Haiz...

1st day of work

Wah lau, the info they gave were wrong, gravely wrong! The dress code was not business casual at all, it was seriously just casual lor! Like how I wear to school, those kind, with jeans and polo tee. All of us wore so darn formal, and attracted a lot of unwanted attention in the small canteen. HR personnel also advised us to wear something more comfy tomorrow. Kanasai, made me wear so formal, so uncomfortable. Heng, I didn't go and buy more shirts, one comrade bought a lot of new shirts because it stated "Business Casual" and he was cursing "Waste my money!" LOL.
The HR personnel, looked a little bit like the DJ Peifen and also a little like my Prof, Dr. Goh, then I realised the similarities, sexy tiny mouth and single eyelid (but nice). The HR personnel oozed a lot of sex appeal, chio! She must have tot how nerdy we were when we didn't dare to walked out of the office even though it was already 5.30pm (we knocked off at 5pm for today coz we reported early), and had to seek her consent somemore. LOL. We had pass card, poorly made by the security guards, the comrade even had his card with correct name but wrong photo! Laugh until pengz...
My supervisor looked a lot like my cousin, but shorter version. The project he gave us, made me wanted to jump into Singapore River! It's so cheem, so complicated, so difficult! We have to link the testing chambers to the website, and we have to do monitoring stuffs etc. The system is more or less completed by the previous batch, what we have to do is to refine and clean it up, and maybe give it a better name. The title it has now is too long to be remembered, what web and database chambers, booking and monitoring blah blah blah. Give it a better title, take the initials and form a name, like G.O.O.D system or B.E.S.T system something like that.
During the briefing, my partner, CC and I kept nodding our heads, answering his doubts and finishing his ideal system. We discussed about the possibilities, softwares used, and server blah blah blah. And so, while waiting for the buses, the few of us were chatting about our individual projects. The only gal other than me, commented that it shouldn't be too difficult for the both of us (CC and me) since we seemed to know about the technologies used and the system requirements, meaning we were confident and knowlegeble. CC and I replied in unison, "Must act mah!" We can go Mediacorp to work if we can't survive in enginnering. LOL.
It's only the first day of work, CC and I are already starting to pia mia already. We scared we can't finish the project, and we have to read through the manual, which is like 100++ pages... -_-"
Save Me!!!
Was rather excited and couldn't sleep the whole night, keep waking up to check the time. In the end, I was dozing in the office. Oh yah, I have my own cubicle with name tag, my own log in account, my own telephone line, my own PC, my own table, my own pass card, and own drawer and keys. I also have 5 days leave and 2 days MC oper month. Seems like I have almost all except internet access. Sianz...

The sweetest thing I've ever seen

On my way to AMK to "meet" my beloved mee hoon kuay, taking bus 851, I saw this elderly couple on board at the bus stop at the AMK library. Ah Pek took the lead in front and search for seats, luckily for them, there was plenty of seats available. Instead of taking the seat first, Ah Pek waited for his spouse, Ah Po to walk up the aisle, and then he told, "You sit inside, better." While she was slowly shifting to sit inside, Ah Pek was holding her by her shoulders, feared that she might lose her footing. Once they were sitted down, Ah Pek adjusted the air-con for her also, saying "Blow directly at you is not good." and then he smiled.

Waste of my time

Wah lau, the IA briefing was a waste of my time and money, Prof should just upload the file so that we can download and read by ourselves, seriously. There wasn't any important issues except examples of some company letters to complain the intern, proof of how students could fail their IA, bleahz!
Then we had lunch at LJS, another waste of my money. From the size of my palm, it dropped to the size of my finger, for the same price. Was hungry again when I reached home. Anyway, all of us were very excited about our IA companies, and of course, the attention focus on the allowance. Interestingly, when we sat at LJS, we didn't know we had divided ourselves into the "meagre allowance" group: $600 and the "allowance a lot" group: $700 and $850. Wah ha ha ha.
The lucky gal who got the $850 was really lucky, not only is the sum high, she does not need to wear formal or office wear. Her dress code is smart casual, just that no sandals are allowed. Me on the other hand, was to cover myself with business wear. Is there a difference to office wear? The funniest goes to the "Fish Couple", attached to same company but different departments. The instruction was "Skirts and pants. No clothes, sandals or slippers". Hweeli, the girlfriend joked that maybe their company involve in bikini manufacturing. LOL.
Oh yeah, my reporting time is 7.30am, shucks! If unlucky enough, it might be my working hours.

Bambi

I just bought 2 cartoon VCDs, yesterday, "Bambi" (1942) and "Bambi II" (2006), and I've finished watching them. Lovely!
Watching these 2, you could see a production difference between these 2. In "Bambi", music often were linked to the sound effects of the movie, and from there, it evolves into a music. For example, the falling of raindrops were masked by the sound of xylophone of different tones, thunders were the clashing of cymbals. In "Bambi II", sounds effects are sound effects, music is music, pop one somemore. And also, the ending credit is also different, "Bambi" only has one screen page; Bambi II has a long list of scrolls lasting 10 minutes, =)
The kind of storyline is also very different, "Bambi" did not have a climax storylink, or links, just a plain simple movie flow, with no objective. As for "Bambi II", you could see how a proud father (The Great Prince) slowly open up himself and learned to love his son, Bambi. Very touching to the extent my eyes were moist.
In this era of where every cartoon is 3D, Bambi II was done in the traditional cartoon drawing, which can be seen from the end credit; painting, clean up, etc. The effort is no less comparable to using computers!
There were a few goofs in the VCD version (they were rectified in the DVD version), but never mind, the storyline make up for it. =) Furthermore, it was already not easy to find voices almost the same as the people in 1942, where most of them probably dead by now. Prof X from X-Men voiced for the Great Prince, woah!

My favourite character: Thumper, who always banged his broad feet, sho cute!

Stomach blog

Was thinking of doing a stomach blog to record what I eat everyday, part of my diet plan to keep a tight rein on what I consume, but then, why did I go through the trouble of doing a new blog, just handwritten it will do lah! Silly me.

I used to have this blog, named JauntyJamie, started it to keep track the growth (mentaly and physically) of Jamie. The idea was born on the day she was born, ha ha, 7 years liao, from the Singnet Webpage until Blogspot, I had done none. Lazy lor... These 2 sites only had my dust collection lor. LOL. I need to go through FTP to configure Singnet, which is very mafan, so gradually, I forgot its existence until I wanna revamp my blogskin by myself, then it occured to me that Singnet personal webpage is available for me to do some uploading. Heh heh.

But then, the lazy bug in me just couldn't get much things done lah... So let it continue to collect dust, Blogger is so much convenient. Hee hee.

Finally out of the shell

3rd post of the day:
After nua-ing at home/hostel for about 1 month (minus the trip to work or to market), I finally got my fat feet, fat butt and fat me out of Yishun, and went to the most talked about place, Vivocity. Seriously, after walking there for about 4 or 5 hours, there's nothing interesting except for one, which I'll blog later. It is just another mega shopping mall, that's all! It's just a few hours ago that I came back, but I can't recall much things from there except eating at Carl's Junior and the interesting thing, hmm.. what else? Sale lor... Basically, I was just there to take a look at Vivo while my fren Hoon was searching for a pair of jeans. We went to Zara, Espirit, Gap, Levis and some cute cute shops.
Okie, the interesting thing. I think we were at this section of Vivo where the shops were sell mainly maternity wear and children stuffs. Then at this shop (can't remember the name, either Mother or Nature something), it sold not only children clothes, but pet's clothes too, mainly for dogs. It also sells really cute and furry doghouse, dog pram (yeap, a pram), dog pillow and anything human has it, dog has it. Then I came across this item which I find it incredulously (love this word recently) useless, see pic below:


Small, medium and large somemore.

Seriously, which dog would request for goggle (I kept pronouncing it as google, damn, haha) before they swim in the sea? If I'm not wrong, they swim with their heads out of water, what's the use of the goggles? I googled for images of dogs swimming, and the result I got was head out of water and non of them wore goggle! What a clever dickhead designer!

你们当狗是人,then 它们就会当你是狗 lah! Seriously, should knock some sense to those dog owners who treat their dogs as babies (carry them instead of letting them walk itself, coo at them etc). I love dogs and I would love to have a dog, but not to the extent that I love it more than I love a human. Can't imagine if I love a dog more than I love Jamie. (Different standard apply to boyfriend or husband, ha ha ha, no lah, must find someone who loves dogs too)

Told ya, the world is going crazy!

Resolutions

Alright, never mind that I never once fufilled my new year resolutions or even remembered them, still I'm gonna write a big chunk and see how much I can acheive by 2008! At least now I have my blog to remind me, =)
  1. Top on the list: Lose weight!!!!! Yes, I mean it this time, seriously, with vengence though. Ha ha, initially, was to lose 30kgs by Aug, which seemed rather impractical unless I torture myself like what 熊天平 did (he lost 28kg within 6 months, currently he's standing at 66kg, and still complained want to lose more, kanasai, 老娘 and sister heavier than him, what more did he want?). Too bad (or heng?) I'm more health conscious than weight conscious, so I'm just gonna do it slowly and steadily. Aim: 2kg per month! EXERCISE AND CONTROL MY BLOODY MOUTH (I have a weakness for good food and chocolate)
  2. No more procrastination! I am a very good procrastinator, ha ha, so much so that I lose my footing and screwed up a lot of things. Examples, I hardly revised my lectures notes before the start of another lecture, thinking: I'll do it later; never ever complete tutorials questions with 100% and asked questions during tutorials, thinking: I'll do it next time; hardly contact those friends who were once so dear to me, thinking: I'll do it when I'm free when I'm actually just plain lazy. The list is going to get longer and I think the above are enough to remind me the seriousness of too much procrastinating.
  3. Be diligent in whatever I do, be it in terms of school, work or anything (like my beauty regime, ha ha)!
  4. Be more thrifty! Stop eyeing items on sale or beauty products, it is never ending! Actually, I'm doing quite a good job now coz I keep telling myself these: "I'm poor" if I wanna buy anything; "Too many at home" if I wanna buy any beautifying my skin products, lol and "Lose weight then buy" if I wanna buy any new clothes. Items on sale ares still allowed if it's a really good catch and substantially for a good reason, example, I'm done with CNY shoppping for this year coz I caught some really good stuffs during some sale last year, =P The indulgence for this month shall be the 2 cartoon VCDs I just bought. Haiz...
  5. Learn something new and learn it well, coz I might just find a new potential in myself and rub some confidence into it, ha ha. Like I'm trying to raise my right eyebrow without raising the left one. My one brow raise (left) wasn't natural, I trained it, so did the turning of my tongue to the left and right side, tongue rolling is natural tho. Maybe next I'll train it to make a flower, hee hee hee (Boliao! Wah ha ha ha!)
  6. Be courteous and spare a thought for other. I found that I can be very selfish and unkind in the the past sometimes.
  7. Train my level of tolerance. I think it's already quite high, but not enough.
  8. Hold my tongue more and speak less evil (I can be a bad mouthing bitch if my "pissed off" level reached the max)
  9. Complain less about how people treat me, focus more on how I treat people (Shouldn't complain to people about ex-roomie, kaye and many others, excluding online idoits)
  10. Okie, one last one. Optimistic is good, but too much of it create more dissapointment. I should have danger sense towards life, coz life is not going to be smooth sailing all the time. Being a worrying queen sometimes actually pushed us to the limit to do our best! In short, a balance of both, =)

Alright, can't imagine if I write any longer, that would mean I'm full of faults eh? Nah, I'm a nice gal, hor?

Long overdue post on Gratitude, =)

This post was long overdue and owed to many of you. I wanna write a 1-to-1, but I realised, is hard to write a different entry for each of you, coz, seriously, no words could really represent what I really felt. I am grateful to all of you who have been supporting my blog, tagging my board and behind the scene. Thanks to the regular passengers: Lay Hoon, Jing, Jenny, Jia, Diyumi, Dengli and Michelle (as in the past 3 months, =P). Thanks to those who dropped by once in a while: Yanni and Jinting. Thanks to those whom haven't been boarding here for long time: Ain and Felix (maybe they are just not active with the tagboard). Finally, thanks to those who have been reading my blog but remain annoymous, =)
I once said, "感激之言非一朝一夕之事,需慢功出细货". In fact, "心中的感激,言语无法替代"!
Thanks, and please continue to support!!!!! =D

Happy New Year!

Just 10 mins past 12 midnight, 10 mins into 2007. Hmm... Let me see, what did I do on the last day of 2006 from the time I woke up?
  • Tied Min's hair for wedding tea party
  • Slacked around at home
  • Lunch with Jia
  • Online and surf around
  • Wrapped Min's Primary 2 textbooks, 45% finished.
  • Napped
  • Woke up 30 mins later to cook rice
  • Napped again
  • Woke up 30 mins later to wake Dad
  • Napped again
  • Woke up 30mins to the sound of opening door
  • Tied Min's hair for wedding dinner
  • Did Mum's makeup
  • Auntie dropped by
  • Watched tv with her until 10pm
  • Vacuumed, mopped the floor and cleaned the kitchen sink with Class 95 blasting in the background
  • Bath, shaved my arms, legs and pits, and did some laundry

I came out of the bathroom just 15 mins before midnight. Most peaceful countdown ever since I knew how to party.

I think I'm really getting old and naggy, I nagged at Jia for buying a pair of shoes. I nagged at Min for not taking care of her personal hygiene. I couldn't take too much interferences, such as too much phone calls (almost cost me to lose a dear fren) and became very irritating. I prefer to stay at home than watching the fireworks and being squeezed in the crowd. I like the feeling of being alone at home (eh.. I think when I'm wrinkly old, I would feel the opposite.)

Redid the "What age do I act?" quiz which I did it in 9th jan last year. My mental age just grow 5 years older in a year, is that good or bad? And is even older than I am! By a year oni tho. =P

You Are 24 Years Old


Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.


New year, new resolutions, needs some compiling. Too busy chatting to write them down in smooth flow. Happy New Year!

P/S: The age was 21 at first, then I did a second time, changing my ans on politics and dang! Jumped to 24.
