Pet's carnival

Champ of all champs!

Last Sunday at Kallang Green, there was this pet's carnival going on. When Shuhua first told me, she said it was an animal exhibition. Wooh... exhibition, so I imagined all the pedigree dogs and cats enclosed in fences, and it was air conditioned.

Wrong!

It was an open area with tents around the selling items such as T-shirts, mugs, posters on all animals, leashes, tags, bowls for animals and food to animals. Only 7-11 was meant for human. Anyway, it was so EXCITING to have so many dogs within my reach! Oh!!!

Take a look at these mini competitions!


Anyway, I did one video of the dogs pole weaving competition. First attempt after so many years, a bit rusty le. Quality not important, see these dogs weave pole! Will update the cats part some days later when I'm free to edit pics and videos... The cats were so funny also, in another way.
Check it out!

There's nothing more classic than these!

Jamie was trying to test Jia's IQ with the question, "Are you smart?" Used to her nonsense and being a quirky one, Jia refused to admit to the question that "she is smart". No choice, Jamie went off rattling the what "1 + 1 is 2, 2 + 2 is 4" and blah blah blah.

Surely we will not miss this chance of making fun of Jamie. Both of us having the same evil thoughts, but Jia was the executor.

Jia: Jamie, 讲 "老鼠" 十次
Jamie: 老鼠, 老鼠, 老鼠 *giggle* 老鼠, 老鼠, 老鼠, *take in deep breathe*, 老鼠, 老鼠, 老鼠, 老鼠 ...
Jia: 猫怕什么?
Jamie:Har?
Jia:我问你,猫怕什么?
Jamie:猫怕老鼠lor !

Wah ha ha, we bursted out laughing. This is so classic lor!

Me, half tearing and laughing: Give her the 牛奶 one leh!
Jia: 讲“牛奶” 十次!
Me: 二十!
Jamie:牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶牛奶!
Jia:牛喝什么?
Jamie:Har?哦,牛喝草。。。eh!牛喝白开水lor!

wah ha ha ha, 牛喝草even funnier than 牛喝白开水!

Amusing

Was msning with ZQ, and on the topic on models. I was so amused when he said this, "siqi, go train hard. you can do it. you are still young. Target: Aim for a simple modelling contract before you graduate."

I had to remind him I had no height... HA~~~

Well, Jenny, I'll pass this sentence to you, plus, "You can do it! You got the height!"

Lousy Morning, Lousy Days

I thought my Monday was already very bad: Woke up far too early than usual; See the bus 853 drove off right in front of me when I specially took another bus so that I don't have to walk; was late for work even though I took the usual bus at the usual time. Tuesday was worse, I got a seat, but the skinny uncle hogged 3/4 of the seat, foot was stepped by an Ah neh, bought my coffee but it turned out empty and still got scalded somemore. Then today, lagi worse, I thought Sup was gonna dropped me off for the IA!

It was like this. The moment my Sup saw my Tutor, he asked if he could drop CC. We were shocked. Then Tutor was fumblng with the dunno what forms, saying that he could do this right away. Before that, he was already asking whether the 2 of us need to be around or not: it was optional. Thus, he leftthe 2 poor kids stranded outside the lab while he went to "chat" with Tutor.

5 minutes passed...

10 minutes passed...

CC and I were speculating what was he saying just now, it wasn't clear but somehow it was like he was serious about kicking CC off. We were "arguing" who he favour more, or who was the likely one to be kick off. CC expressed that Sup had dislike him since day one coz he's a PRC. However, I said want to kick also kick me coz I have not been doing anything (not I didn't do anything, but my results were slow that's all ). Anyway, we got more uneasy as time passed.

When Tutor came out, he asked CC if he knew where his (Tutor's) office were, and then he said he would give CC his office address. Why, why must he go office and not me? We were very worried when we got back to our office... As time went by, CC unable to surpress his anger (he really tot Sup was gonna fire him), he went to look for Sup. And it turned out that... Sup wanted him to help submit feedback form... -_-"

Say things say properly lah... We were so scared!

Seventeen Movie Magic

It was really fun yesterday, participating this "Seventeen Movie Magic" event. Not only did we get to watch a movie, "Music and Lyrics", which is so funny, we also had mini makeovers, picture taking, make scrapbook, nice food and free flow of ice creams!!!

The day started with me meeting Diane at Bishan MRT. From there, we made our way to Cineleisure Preview lounge. As we were rather early, we went down to BK for some light snacks as I had not eat anything since woke up.

At BK, I got myself into a really silly episode of my life. As Di did not want anything, I went to the counter to get myself some onion rings and barley. Totally oblivious to the lady beside me, I stood, dazed into space while waiting for my order. It wasn't until the lady was speaking into her handphone, and the conversation attracted my ears. She was saying, "I'm at BK now, yah, with SIQI BESIDE me..."

I immediately turned and looked at her, eyes widely opened, and the next moment, I was laughing at myself. It was my EEE friend and I was totally ignoring her!!! The service staff at the counter was damn shocked at my sudden reaction: one moment I was ignoring the lady beside me, next moment was apologizing to her profusely.

I think the whole event lasted 1 hr, which was really short, coz every gal surely wants to makeup, then we still have to do the scrapbook, take pictures which we had to include the sponsor's product. So Di and I helped ourselves to the Wall's ice creams. Ha ha... Our makeup was done by the Fasio promoter, who looked like Kyoko Fukada. Kawaii girl...

Then, we submitted our scrapbook in a rush, and to our horror, our scarpbook was the most plain... Actually, we had no idea of a scrapbook also, ha ha.Nvm... just have some fun only... Although I would love to win the Canon Selphy printer...

A picture says a thousand words...



Thought of this comic strip while I was looking at the pictures... Ha ha... It was so suitable... Di is the only whom I feel comfortable acting like an ah siao. =) Will try to upload to Singnet there. Over here the pic size is small. [Link is up, click on the pic]

This month damn broke le... Ha...

Zouk Night Out


These pics were taken last Fri, where I went to Zouk after meeting Yanqi whom I met after my work. Thus dressed very casually, afraided that I wasn't allowed to enter Zouk, Darling Diane helped me grabbed a top in less than 10 minutes of shopping. 那衣服我还蛮喜欢的, 因为可以遮我的肚皮。。。哈哈哈!
The bouncers at Zouk were all hunks lor... Think Diane must be secretly salivating (yeap, she told me they were very shuai, 得了,会帮你留意这样的男生啦!) And I stupidly, couldn't think straight with all these hunks around me... Ha ha ha.
After we cleared the check, we went to the counter to buy tix. At this moment, a very tall and suave bouncer came to tell me that I have to deposit my bag at the counter because I have a water bottle (I took a very unglam backpack to work, the bottle was placed the side.) Then, being a 什么都要 explain 地 char boh, I actually told him, "No water, it's only an empty bottle..." The bouncer still explained patiently to me that it was the club's rule and I had to deposit the bag at the counter.
Wah biang, very the sia suay...
But then, such kind of clubbing thing, long long one time is enough... Damn tired and damn expensive...

Simply Natural Beauty

Alright people, it's confirmed. I'm a natural born beauty... Before you all start puking, let me explain. Of course, I must have concrete evidences to prove this point, therefore, let me list out all the past comments I had heard.

When I was just a little girl, my auntie (N70) used to wow at us (Jia and me, now Min also) for having long eyelashes that curls up bu its own. By Asian standard, my eyelashes are indeed long, do not compare me to Indians, Eurasian or aliens, oh, aliens do not have eyelash, sorry.

In primary and secondary, I looked hideous, so no compliments at all except "Siqi is a cheerful girl".

In polytechnic, I went to the 超级无敌它妈的贵的 beauty saloon for facial. There was this customer, half paralysed due to car accident, highly interested in beauty regime and stuffs, told the 超级无敌 big liar that, she wants to have my rosy lips, so that she did not have to put on lipstick. Liar said to achieve the rosy lips, was to tattoo the lips, which is permanent makeup. Anyway, my point is, I have natural rosy lip colour, so actually, I do not need lipstick at all. And so, the colour I like for lipsticks, also tend to be similar shade to my lips. =D

Then, in the following year, which by then I had stopped going for facial, but I started taking care of skin by myself. Ok, not important, there was this junior who insisted that I wore makeup to school (being 17 and 18, we could be quite ridiculous to argue over stupid stuffs la). He said (yes, a guy actually noticed my face for once) he could see my eye shadow, blusher and lip colour. I had to prove to him that it was all natural by wiping my face with a tissue and dirts coming off my face, and proceeded to explain to him that the eyeshadow was actually dark eye rings, blusher was because I'm hot and stuffy from the walking, thus the blood was boiling in my face and my lip colour was because I'm heaty (Mum said this is cause by insufficient water).

Fast forward to Uni, months later after I had the virgin haircut at Sandstorm (the hairstyle I had in the above banner), unable to tahan the scorching heat in April, I went to cut my hair. The Ah Boy hairstylist asked if my hair was rebonded or natural. Months of painstakingly effort of using straightening shampoo and moisturiser, I produly answered it was natually straight. However, all efforts down the drain when the Ah Boy cut my hair. He no skill lah!

Once, I was asking for feedback whether I should perm or rebond my hair. The very nice and chio Ex-Roomie said I should go for perm for my hair is already straight enough. Ah.... sho schweet orph her!

Fast Fast forward to this year, I was to help out with Chingay. My very cute IA friend excitedly "confronted" me, "Siqi, did you put on makeup?" I replied I did not put on makeup, and she gave me a "are you serious" look. Because of past comments, I asked her, "Is it because you think you saw eyeshadow?" Bingo, she said that was the reason why she told I had put on makeup.

And today, I went to an event organised by the Seventeen. It consists of some mini makeup, photo taking and scrapbook making. Whil I was having my makeup done by this ultra super duper kawaii Kyoko Fukada lookalike (深田恭子) Fasio promoter who happen to be NYP junior (diff course tho) and intending to study in NTU, she asked if I had apply some eyeshadow before coming down here. Not knowing whether I should feel pleased or sad, I involunteerily told her that it was black eye rings.

See, I'm such a natural born beauty even dark eye rings look so good on me. HA HA HA HA!

Pretty boh?

Wat? Now Poly students wear gowns for Convocation?

Why is it that good and nice things always happen after I left?

If I had the chance to wear a gown in poly, maybe I might not have enter uni liao, to pursue this unattainable dream of wearing the gown, getting the degree from Prof. Seriously, with my results like shit like that, I've been thinking FAR ahead whether should I attend the convocation in 2008? Pple say, even if ur result is like shit, u also must attend, coz this might be your once a lifetime experience, and not to waste your 3 or 4 years in uni. Haiz... I will feel so 无地自容。。。

Bleahz...

Oh yah, how's the modified blog skinz? Not very cool, but at least better than the previous one hor, so dull... Colourful enough, although is kind of not suitable for my mood and character nowadays...

Really Stupid...

Today the vendors for the chamber came, and Sup asked me to go meet them at the reception, but he didn't say wait for him. So when I went to see them, I was like, "OK, what am I suppose to do?"

After a round of intro, the taller guy (he's like so tall lor, around 1.9 I think... Let's call him Dino lah, ha~~~) asked, "So you were the IA student whom I contacted?" "Yah..." I paisehly answered (Story went to where I just started in my IA, I send a request to the Australia company, who then escalate the problem to the SG vendors. I refused to reveal to him which company until he said, in the phone, that my company has the only P2 chamber in SG, -_-").

Anyway, I told him I also dunno what to do, coz Sup didn't specify clearly, so I thought which I presume is correct, was to brought them to the lab. Anyway, the lab got nothing, so I brought them down to the garage. That's when Sup called and asked where were we... Damn! Sia suay myself again! We were supposed to wait at the reception, and we were actually going to the meeting room lah.

Anyway, Dino very funny he said he will give me his company brochure so that I will join them after I graduate. Ha~~~ But I was still in a blurry state for I was dozing off in the office earlier, so my mind wasn't very clear, and I didn't reply him... Appears like I''m not so interested like that... Ha~~~ Sia suay again...

The other guy, seemed to be well versed with the software, and knew exactly which one which part. They gonna get the contact of the guy who wrote this software, woo hoo! Getting help, yeah!!! Just hope that this guy can really help me pull through this project.

I had decompile all the class files and damn it, mostly are in German! If I had known I'll be going to EEE, I would have choose to take German when I was in poly le... Since German is famous for its enginnering, hor?

Was walking around the whole company in my blue Hush Puppies slippers, matched with 3/4 jeans and a faded tee, but I was wearing my sweater to cover it. I think I really need to reconsider my dress code when I go office again. So paiseh to see the vendors in such "homely" attire... -_-'''. Should utilize those long sleeve shirts... They have been neglected since my last IA in poly. Anyway, I have almost exhausted all my polo tees (either faded out, got holes or stained by unknown chemicals)

15 more mins to knock off. =D

男人啊!男人

Did I mention to you all about this schoolmate from MAE, having his IA at my company too, was my AMK senior? No, now let me tell you about him...

Haiz... 真是日久见人心。。。

又矮又不是很好看 (at first look he resemble 王建復, now he looked weird lah), why must he be such an asshole somemore?

Scene 1: Office lunch at Pasar

Me: Eh, what you eating ar?

Him: Ban Mian lor

Me: Eh, help me order Mee Hoon Kuay

Him: You also order same stall ar? You order lah!

Me: You already halfway walk there liao, why ask me?

Him: Coz I dunno how to order your one (he dunno how to say Mee Hoon Kuay). -_-

Note: Our dear Vietnamnese friend, knows how to order Mee Hoon Kuay

Scene 2: Waiting for order to come

Me: Hmm... (Looking straight at the stall that sells hum chin peng and beh huay ji ), those look good...

Him: Later then buy back to office lor...

Me: Good idea...

A while later...

Him: Eh, are you going to buy?

Me: Yah... (and slurping my MHK at the same time, was the last one to finish)

Him: Help me order leh...

Me: I'm eating, why not you go and help me order lah!

Him: I dunno how to order... X_X

Me: Use your finger point lah! That's what you told Paul...

Him: Aiyah, very paiseh...

Note: He was telling Paul that he can just use his (Paul's) finger to point the food he wants even if he can't speak dialect coz Paul also very interested to eat. Dunno how to say Hum Chin Peng or Beh Huay Ji is the stupidest excuse, coz on the signboard are spelled out in Chinese? Lazy admit lah, why must you come up with all sort of excuse, it just make you look more stupid. 难道你连麻煎和咸煎饼都不会念?

This is not the end, coz I was the first to arrive office everyday, he dare to say, "How nice if I see a cup of coffee on my table every morning..." Ok, at first it was funny, jooking only mah... But not when he said it almost everyday... Sometimes when lunch at office canteen, I offered to help them buy drinks, he also very buay hiao byte and give me money to help him buy. NVM...Now, after this "dunno how to order" incident, I was "complaining", wah, you treat me like maid wor! I say myself is as joke, but is not funny when he tell Paul, "Eh, Si Qi is like our maid hor..."

I endure... and finally got a chance to snap back at him.

Scene 3: Walking back to office, pass by an ice-cream seller mini van. Ok, I'm bad at vehicles parts even though I'm working in a automobile related industry. The back door was pull open and act as shelter for the seller, so when Senior walked past, he actually bent his neck so as to avoid hitting it. At this moment, I spoke out, "先生,你根本不用弯你的脖子lor,都没有那么高..."

Ha ha ha... He knows I'm hinting he is short.

Interestingly enough, excluding the 2 IA guys from the plant side, counting only us in the office, we gals are among the tallest(Huiyuan) and shortest(me lah), the rest of the 3 guys are almost equal in height and rank second... So short hor... Anyway, he's still a nice and funny guys minus the occasional sacarsm! LOL!

Wanna talk about my Zouk exp, but tired le, tmr need to present to Manager, and rushed my project today (Sup said at least must show some working functions). Just got back at ard 11pm... Yawn... Anyway, it was pretty embarassing exp even tho this wasn't the first time I clubbed. Look out for my next entry hor, see how silly Siqi is... ha ha ha...

Saying about silly, I remembered when I was in sec, during some bo liao orientation, we had to come up with adjective for our names, like Happy Huiyuan, Cheerful Charlie etc. Names starting with "S" were the dominant group, so by my turn, almost all words we can think of were used up. Out of desperation, I said, "Silly Si Qi", but they said cannot be of negative meaning, so in the end I become "Simple Si Qi".

真是人如其名!哈哈哈哈!

(Supposed to complain less, one of my new year resolutions, but I just cannot tahan lah...) 罪过,罪过。

New Skin

So how does my new skin looks like? Cute mah?

Good and bad news for me, chamber is being connected to the PC leh, which means I can start on my coding for the original project; bad news is no more slacking le...

Hooked to web design after doing the webpage for the team, that's why changed my blog skin. Upcoming personal project will be doing the Singnet space, hee hee hee...

Tired... Took the whole evening editing this "Post-it" skin... I think I want to change the colours... Looks a little dull, don't you think so? =D

What the hell...

After 2 months of trying, it turned out to be version problem? I think Sup was totally ignoring me already, coz he sounded so lethargic when I called him and asked whether he had version 2.06. Thank god the vendor who came this time Michael, was very nice, offered to help me asked their software engineers all the way back in Germany!!! Better than the German guy I had been liaising these few weeks... Interestingly, these vendors must hymned some weird notes when they were troubleshooting... LOL...

Went shopping with Jennyat AMK Hub today. More shops are opened, and many of them on sale, grabbed a cheap bargains which I think quite worth, ^_^, hee hee. A total of $26 for 4 items=3 belts and a crop jacket. Why 3 belts? Coz I wear them off really fast... especially for cheap things like this, it isn't very lasting, but I don't think I will wear them often coz they are a little too glam... in my opinion. I still trust my Giordano belt when I wear jeans, =D. At least it is still durable after 13 years...

3 more months...

A ray of light finally...

For once, good things are coming my way...
  • IP address issue was resolved! I can ping from level 1 to 4 and level 4 to 1 le, I also can access both servers!
  • While checking the chamber status (mock results), it suddenly hit upon me that the program I'm accessing is a html file, not any othjer program. That meant I can save the file and look at the code, and implement/change the code to my request! Wah ha ha...
  • Upon scritinizing the files inside that chamber software, I saw some Java .jar files. It is actually similar to ZIP file and I can unzip it. Not only that, the Net Bean program allow me to peek into the class files also! Long story short, I can start my program without having to write new files, all I need to do is to link these class files and use their methods! Happy! Next step is to peek at the arguments passing...

I is happy for once... hope it lasts! =)

Please...

Let a car knocked me down and MC 3 mths. I don't want to work!!!

Wednesday, March 07, 2007

On target = "false"

Manage to write a token code to restrict access today! Wheet! Simple it may be, but at least I thought of it myself... But then, 2 days to think of such simple code is really very long...

On a good side, the remote browser allows me to peek in how to send string request, so at least once I settle the bloody command, I can get on work le...

Big Big VIP came today, everyone was in a frenzy this morning... Even before I could enjoy my cup of teh tarik, Sup dragged us to finalise the website... Hopefully, it was all well done and not screwed.

The only happy thing is I'm $700 richer, =)

Endurance

When Sup "grilled" me for the 1st time, out of boredom I wrote a simple "if-else" statement:

if (Sup = rush)
{
full speed at work;
}
else
{
slack and read newspaper;
}

Now the situation is like this:

String Sup_mood = request.getMood(); //getMood is a class with different moods method
String my_mood;


String day = request.getDay();
if (day = "Sat" && day = "Sun")
{
boolean at_work = false;
out.println("Siqi is at home nuaing!")
}
else
{
boolean at_work = true;
if (Sup_mood = Happy)
{
my_mood = "phew!";
}

else if (Sup_mood = "Angry")
{
my_mood = "sad...";
}

else if (Sup_mood = "Crappy")
{
my_mood = "duhz...";
}
else if (Sup_mood = "Suan")
{
my_mood = "tamade, I endure!";
}
out.println("At work = "+ response.getBoolean(at_work);)
out.println("My mood is very"+my_mood);
}

Sup today requested for a movement chart, and I was tasked to do. When I asked if the deadline was this coming Fri, he said, "Whenever you want, since you seem so comfortable with this project now."
I 'd neglected my original project...

Bersek

At the strike of 5.30pm, I almost went bersek. Not that it was knock off time, but rather because I found out my almost perfect and assumed simplest method of the program was screwed! Last fri, Sup was still "praising" me that I got the 1st half done, so that I can concentrate on the 2nd. Now, neither head or tail on both sides, and I'm supposed to upload eveything today! Almost died of heart attack...

Win liao lor... Argh...

Sup seemed very busy today, he did not come to check on us at all. Even our fren at the corner also not used to the peaceful silent we had today.

Tonight gotta cheong le...

Friday, March 02, 2007

Wah... So long didn't update!

Woah, my last entry as dated on Monday, my blogging frequency is getting lower. Bo pian, working life is boring. Nothing to update except work work work.

Supposed to go Zouk tonight with Diane, but the rain makes me very nua lah, and this morning already had a change of mind. I think now I'm more fickled minded than Diane already... Ha ha... Hmm... Any PH on thurs one?

I think I'm unofficially been posted to do web design le, so far, Sup never asked much about the chamber already, and I'm also like half given up. But then, it isn't any better doing the website, coz he had a lot of funny ideas. At first he said, he want simple website, then now he want to access excel fil efrom server, edit them etc. Diaoz... Spend the whole day surf net for codes, but nothing much. Then he gave me a workaround, I still persist on the first initiative. Just before I left work, I 无心插柳 managed to come up one part, and I don't have to search the whole web for the code somemore. 真不该执着于不该执着的东西。

And then hor, when he asked me IIS, I gave him very patronising answer. Last night when I searched the web, I realised those functions could really be done. Feellike slapping my mouth siah, think I better don't anyhow say things liao.

Big shots coming to our office, so we'll be busy getting the stuffs done and show thm. Must make no things screw up!
