Bad days...

Finally, a time to catch some breathe and blog. The week until now has been short but eventful. T_T

On Monday...

My Sup was having a casual conversation with MF, an EA. Talked talked talked... They were talking about the 2 other EAs wearing green polo tee coincidentally, then I was pulled into the picture mercilessly by my Sup. According to MF, Sup was joking my yellow pole tee (I wear polo tee everyday) used to be green, but had turned yellow due to excessive washing. Alright, they were just teasing about my polo tee... Harmless... But still I felt uneasy when the 2 of them kept looking at my direction. At this moment, my Sup was doing this action, his 2 hands were as if they were holding to an invisible large log vertically, and then I heard him say, "她的比SH大啦。。。"

They were saying my arm is larger than SH, one of the EA. I showed them my pout face to tell them, "I've heard what you all say and I'm hurt!" My Sup dun dare to look at me after that and was very nice to me, for a short while.

During lunch, I went to a provision shop to stock up my "ration". The cashier was placed outside for convenience. I was just minding my own business when an auntie with both her hands full queued behind me and pokd me with her arms. Sianz... When it was my turn to pay, the auntie behind just placed her things at the counter and the lady in front of me had to mess things up by placing 2 more bottles of sesame oil after she had already made her payment. This obviously didn't make the cashier very happy. It was chaotic. The lady was anxious to make payment coz she was afraid she would have to queue up again, which by then it was a long queue. I didn't even say anything when the cashier rudely exclaimed, looking at me, "One at a time hor!" Made me so damn pek chek. When it was my turn to pay, my items were mixed up with the auntie behind. Even more pek chek!

On Tuesday...

I made my way down to the new National Library. At City Hall interchange, we were being squashed like sardines since it was peak hour. I happily settled for the hot spot: the empty corner at the entrance. BIG MISTAKE!

2 Nanyang girls entered and stood right beside me. When the train moved, we were all swayed to one side, one of the girls comfortably squashed on me. I tot she would regain her posturen after we were back on momentum, but no, she continued laying against me. As the saying goes, "A hungry man is an angry man", so I was obviously not in a good mood as I had not had dinner. I just blurted out, "小姐， 你不是在靠墙壁hor!" She turned and gave me a horrified look with her eyes widely opened, but she did not even uttered a word of "sorry". People around us were looking and thank goodness I was to alight at Bugis and spared me from further embarassment. I think her fren was whispering to her something obviously not nice about me. Heck care...

I also isn't any better, I forgot to thank the person who excused himself from the comfortable posture of lying aginst the map when I wanted to check out the location of National Library. =P

How difficult things can be easy...

I realised, after doing months of IA, that things are easy once you crossed the difficult line. I had been complaining and whining that my project was hard. But now, everything is sort of in place and I had my program running, things aren't as difficult as it had first seem to be. 2 more months to go...

I have like 101 things to do and none of them are moving at all... tnanks to my laziness... shall get them all done by this weekend!

Wanted to join the 933 DJ competition for the fun of it, but time is not with me lah, I have kickboxing on Sat 12pm and they are starting at 11am. Never mind, chances will come...

Yearn for tmr night to arrive soon: DBL O, here I come!!! =D

Great minds think alike

I swear to God I read Jia's blog after I wrote mine. She had also used "scene of crime" for her splurging, which happens once a blue moon.

我不是要故意COPY你的！！！

I need a part time job

I think I need a part time job to keep me busy and tired at weekends so that I will not have the time to go shopping, it can therapeutic for me as a form of destress from my work, on the other hand, it is mentally exhausting to see my bank statement decreasing at exponential rate.

I NEED TO SAVE MONEY LAH!

Jia, please keep me from going out too much.

April's schedule
5th April: DBL O
13th April: Ivy's birthday party
TBC: Pass Xuewei's present

Please try to confine me at home for the rest of April's weekend.

Today is 1st April, so I started a new blog to record my expenditure. I read it somewhere this is a good way to keep track of what you spend and in a way, you'll spend less next time when u see how much you had spent. I shall limit my expenditure each time to limit at $50, including food. I failed terribly for today.

Also, I'll record other miscellaneous like bill payment for internet, handphone or school. Monthly shall not exceed $200 including bills.

I must succeed!

Part time anyone?

U have to see to believe...

Now we have proof that goldfish is not dumb...

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！

Oh Great...

I totally forgot about my Final Year Option, I wanna change one of the modules!!! Die lah, dunno if register do I have to follow strictly to the modules I've selected in this option form, I wanna take wireless!!! Sianz sianz sianz...

Going to Animal Exhibition, hopefully I can take some pics... =D

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

Warning: The following entry is potentially harmful, for it contains highly nauseating contents. Kindly refrain from eating and drinking while reading. I am not going to be responsible for any mishap happen. Read at your own risk!

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!!!

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...

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!

Updates

Mahjong session on Sat was shiok beyond words. I helped Janet played when I arrived, from deficit amount, I played and became the 2nd overall winner! I got 5 tais twice, then once I zimo hua shang (that is I got my own flower, then when I bu hua, I zimo), from zero tai jumped to 2 tai! BS damn heng, zimo King lor... He would have won $20 over bucks if I didn't win some from him. Ha ha... Poor Wynter... Big loser... But she got upper hand towards the end of the game, but not enough to cover her losses... And because of too much fun in mahjong, I missed the official Chingay on Sat, supposed to help. I did go down to Orchard, but I was so sleepy that I decided to head home and sleep. Who knows, mahjong sequel was waiting for me... Was playing with 5th Auntie, initiallt, the zero tai one. Then she want to learn mahjong with tai, so we teached her. End up I also pay "sch fees" with her... Then Jia gave me my $3 back, hee hee...

Sun I went to meet my sec friends... So long never see them le. Shuhua and Xiuli are already working liao, but seems like they aren't in their area of interests, hope for the best for them! We ate at Man Ting Xiang, a place I used to frequent with PZ at Hougang Green, but we were at the AMK outlet that day. I think the standard is better than Hougang Green, it was rumoured that AMK's one wansn't that good. Think they improve le.

The Nokia Idiot gave us a treat at Lao Shanghai. Seriously, you wanna be a host, then be a good one. Dun be so LJ asked people to help u asked, in the end too many people U KPKB. Tell Mum not to tell anyone ur secret, you are the hollering to people about it. Siao... damn pissed off... Got money also no need to show off like that. And please work up ur dress sense, don't wear a top so nice and then below u wear stocking with pumps, so cheena auntie lor!

Today at work was seriously damn sia suay: I dozed off at Big Boss's office. Win liao lor, noone can win me le. Before Sup left for PSB, he was telling me "Do not sleep, Do not Idle, Do your work". What a huge hint... Coz he was with me in Big Boss room presenting out website. I was still alright when I was standing, but the moment I was seated on the chair, sleep bug crawl into my brain. I was trying so hard to keep awake... I stretched my shoulder, rotate my neck, pinched myself... All useless... While Sup was explaining to Big Boss, I just dozed off... Definitely, Sup and Big Boss sure saw me sleeping coz when they asked me questions, my eyes were obviously half opened even though I was answeing them. Then Sup attempted to wake me up by slapping hard on the table while passing me the note. Good one... Then came the advice "Do not sleep, do not idle, do your work"...

Damn...

Pretty Eyes

For the Nth time, people asked if had put on make up, on a day where I had not enough sleep. Bo pian lah,my eyes are so pretty that it looks like with makeup when it was dark rings, ha ha ha.

But seriously, are my dark eyes rings so bad?

Today the team website was completed. Shiok! Sup wanted frames, so I created frame inside frame inside frame, ha ha ha... Coz I don't want the background to move when scrolling, so have to use a lot of frames and allow transparency. Dunno what I'm talking? Hee... Not surprising...=P

Went to help out at Chingay today and tomorrow I have to go also. The bad thing about having such mass event is waste of time. Wait here wait there de... Wah lau... But the atmosphere there is really different from watching TV. Personally, I like the Japan Association of SG float... It was a live band I think, and the music just wanna make u dance to the beat! And the dancers, so lively!!!!! I was stationed at the start of the parade, So I could almost see all the floats, if only I was taller...

Tmr mahjong session, cheong ah!!!

Back to Doom Land

After a 5 days break, I was practically dragging myself to work on Wed. It did not turn out better with a sacarstic supervisor, and tough project back on track, SUCKS!!!
Chu er damn tok gong, went for 1am movie, then supper. Reached home at 5am plus, sleep at 7am!!! I tot I could enjoy a good rest on chu san, but my Uni frens came knocking on the door at 11am! FREAK lah! Tot they not coming... Kenna Mum niam niam also... You know lah, guests come still lie on bed, of coz tio meh...
We had a mahjong session then. I was seriously tired out, throw East I shouted South. Throw Green Fa I said Ang Tiong. Win... Heng ar... Luck was with me, I still win $3. Could have been more, if Wynter didn't stop the blur blur Janet from throwing the Ang Tiong, I could have Da San Yuan 5 tais you know. I had all Bai Ban and Green Fa, was waiting for a single Ang Tiong. Anyway, I also did one full got tai, zi mo some more, $3.20 per head into my pocket. ha ha ha.
娘子军立正！拜六咱们把那几坨大便清理门户！

新年快乐！吉祥如意！花开富贵！猪年oink oink! (现在不流行旺旺)

Yo! Is chu er le, how's is your housevisiting? Tired hor... Even though I didnt go anywhere, but my house was the host for chu yi, so we were cooking, cleaning, serving. Even my cousin said she only saw me in the kitchen when she wanted to go bathroom.
Is always fun to see all my cousins (我的家族"阴"气重，哈哈) and chit chat with them. This year, I was busy in the kitchen, so didn't really get to chat with them, but now I do see the growth in the younger cousins：All of them had plunging necklines! Woah!

Anyway, we were so freaking tired when they left... Already very tired from cooking, still have to clean house. The house was so dirty, that when I mopped the floor, could see the difference in color: Black and white.

Today, we will go house visiting le, can wear my new clothes le, yeah!!!

Birthday Gifts

Received more belated birthday gifts today, a postcard from the 4 of them, a CD from Ex-roomie and a box of Japanese snacks from Kumi. I love these gals!

Interestingly, I notice most of my presents this year are related to the mouth...

First, a box of Toblerone. Then a set of toothbrush and toothpaste set. And then snacks again! LOL.

Plant shutdown tmr, shiok, I'm already starting my holidays!

HAPPY CNY!

Happy V-day!

Received a very very belated birthday gift from an old friend, first time from him, today. Weird, friends for almost 12 years, other than the 13 year old birthday when he and the other celebrated my birthday, that was it.

I suspected a scheming motive, nonetheless, I went ahead to meet him, during my office lunch hour. I was rather skeptical, wondering what other surprises he might have up his sleeve, for me.

During lunch, I asked him, "Why did you give me present after so many years?" Rather taken aback by my question, he threw back the question at me. Good one...so I answered because he got Birthday Alarm to remind him of my birthday right? Then he said also got Friendster mah... Yah yah...

Before we parted our way, he handed me my present, full of suspense, only telling me it's something useful.

Back at office, I gingerly opened the present... it was... an oral hygiene travelling set! It has a toothbrush, toothopaste, rinsing solution and freshener mist. Thanks for hinting me I have bad breathe and yellow teeth... -_-" nd he got my age wrong! He wrote "Happy 22nd birthday!" This one I can forgive... even thought he should know my age coz we are born in the same year...

Knew he won't me so nice to give me present, it was Amway's product, and his ulterior aim was to get me join (if I'm interested) in this Nutrilife seminar held this coming Thurs, which is tmr, next Tues and the next next Thurs.

Damn... what a vday for me!

Joking joking, I'm really happy he remembered and buy me gift! Actually, I do need a toothbrush also... Ha ha. Thanks dude!

New skin

Been doing website designing for my team, and the chamber project is put on hold, waiting for the support side from Penang to get back to us first. Phew... Get to relax for a while...

VIPs coming in March, thus I was tasked to do some web designing, idea from Sup again. He has a lot of ideas, eager to present. Poor CC, he has a lot of modules to finish by March leh... But he also power lah, already finished a lot of it liao, I'm very impressed by him. Coz he has no prior background programming background, yet he managed to do it quick.

Itching to change my blog skin, now that I've been frequently using Dreamweaver and touching on the language Javascript. Hopefully I can finish it before report comes in...

CNY coming loh...

Music to the ears...

In the 80's, it was cool to listen to music on a boombox and carried it on your shoulder. Walked and dance around the street, blaring the music.

Then this someone who must really hate boombox decided to come with this gizmo: Walkman, and further on, discman, with earpieces okie, so atas: Listen to your own music.

Then came the era of handphones, and how many missed calls people had to go through before they realised their handphones were ringing while they were listening to the music stuck in their ears.

As technology advances, music player integrate with handphones. Not only does the a handphone need to zhng its function, so does the speaker! Getting so good that music handphone player need no external speakers to enhance its quality.

So, we are back to "boombox" era, except that people are blaring music from their phones instead of the big bulky boombox.

IT"S SO BLOODY IRRITATING! AND MOST PEOPLE WHO DID THIS ARE THOSE BLOODY NOSE HIGH UP IN THE AIR KIDS WHO ONLY KNOW HOW TO GET MONEY FROM PARENTS! (The only time I encounter that wasn't a kid was an uncle blaring some weird hokkien sutra chants)

Seriously, I don't understand. A ear piece is designed to be small and portable, so as to attract people to use, and why are they refusing to use and blast the music instead? I hope the next trend is to wear ear piece so they would wear it all day and spare our ears from those techno, alternative or blah blah blah kind of music.

Damn happy, bought 2 Surfer's Paradise tees, at $13 each, size L somemore. Their cutting is rather big... =D And due to lose of appetite the last 2 days, I lost 2kgs. Wheet! Yet, I think my appetite is back after a hearty shoppping trip. Ha ha... must control...

Can tmr come later??? I don't want to work... Why Sunday so soon!!??!!

TGIF!

Friday is the day I looked most forward... Finally can take a breather yet at the same time, I need to rush all the stuffs by Monday. Haiz... I think I have an honest face, Sup asked me, is it very stressful to work for him, coz he can see it all over my face, STRESSED! I asked CC, and he said my face turned glum when I see Sup, LOL... No choice lah, I'm an honest girl...

Been having lousy appetite since sick...Don't feel hungry also.. Eat for the sake of eating, I suspect time of the month is coming again... Like that also good... Can feel my jawline and my wrist bone liao... Wah ha ha ha... Haiz...

Sick again...

Was feeling so weak and nauseous this morning, bo pian went to see doc and get an MC. Was having a fever yesterday already yet still went to meet DL, ended up she also not feeling well. Then we 2 poor kids went to have just a milo only... and I still have to meet fren for project help after that... Bleahz...

After eating medicine and sleep the whole day, feeling much better, but stomach still feels weird now. My project is nowhere progressing how??? Help!!!

"Nutter Professor"

In my mid of clearing those spam mails which was around 80, my sharp eyes saw a mail which could possibly passed off as a spam mail.

The creator of Sasxsek emailed me! He/she visited my blog and emailed me this:

"Some are still English and then, the rest are those odd words that you dunno how to pronouce, like, iqglis which means English. Sasxsek doesn't use C and E, using K and I instead.Pretty cool huh? But not simple at all..."

As the creator of Sasxsek, I'm not quite sure what these last couple statements mean. "iqglis" is pronounced "eeng-glees". The Q is pronounced like the NG in siNG.I'm also not sure what you mean about C,E, K and I. C is not used (at least not yet) the rest are used.Anyway if anyone has any usage questions they can direct them to me.

Wah... so dedicated... Drop me an email to clarify my doubts... Maybe I should do the same thing to Singlish... Ha ha ha

Mum said Dad had changed, not for the worse, but for the better. He actually brought her shopping and chose clothes for her! Unbelievable... I think the death of my godpa's left a deep impact in him... In the past, only Mum teased him, now he does the same. Mum was not used to it, but I find it very amusing... =)

Living up to people's expectation

I was browsing thru Friendster, when memories of random events came flooding back. I realised, I've tried so hard to keep up with people's expectation of me, that I kinda lost myself. Even if I done something to show them that I'm listening to their advice, it turned out, still not good enough...

What the hell did I go thru to make myself miserable? Damn...

Sometimes, I think I'm also trying to seek attention from them, thus I tried so hard to be what they want me to be, yet it turned out, I'm feeling uneasy and they also don't really see it thru. In fact, when it was I myself wanted to become live up to my own expectation, I'm happier, because I'm doing for myself and not anyone.

I've been living in self denial that "I do not care what people think of me", just the opposite, I mind what they think of me very much! Being it physically or non physical remark, I took it to heart and I would keep harping on the issue until I'm satisfied or they gradually forgot the matter too.

So much for being "myself"...

Anyway, I think I've gone thru some gradual changes... it felt like my energy is draning away... Pls make me 16 again!

Screw those new year resolutions

It has been a month and the progress of my NY resolutions were...

1. Lose weight: Failed. I gained weight instead... Now I'm trying very hard not to eat rice for dinner. Yet, there are times when I gave in to delicious food. Just yesterday and today, I ate my mum's share of fried rice and chicken wings. Felt very bad coz she didn't get to eat her own nice cooking. Now I must always remember not to clear up the food even if it was 10% left.
2. No more procrastination: Failed. I'm still deelee dailee my things... Chop chop hurry hurry finish! I'm no longer the inflexible law-by-law Siqi. I rememeber I used to finish my stuffs quick, and in an orderly manner. Now, I do it when I feel like it. Mum's CNY cards to her friends still on my desk... Haven't glue my shoes... Havent sort my letters and put them in the boxes... Haven't do my project and Mon I have to test the system le... -_-'''. I also have one more lantern to make!
3. Be diligent: Failed. I'm getting lazier...
4. Be thrifty: Passed, coz I have no money.
5. Learn something new: Failed, too many to choose what I want. Passed coz I gg for thai kickboxing this Feb! Any kakis?
6. Be courteous: Failed, didn't ask Mum whether she had dinner or not. 妈，孩儿不孝！下次一定为你留饭菜！
7. Train my level of tolerance: NA, can't recall anything related yet.
8. Speak less evil: NA, can't recall anything related yet.
9. Complain less: Failed... Didn't celebrate my birthday, I complained. Celebrated, I also complained.
10. Have some sense of danger: Failed, blur sotong still a blur sotong.

Okie, blogged liao, happy liao, go and do my stuffs liao!

Heng

I was sleeping most of the time today, just when I woke up to check a sms, Sup came over, phew... heng ar, if not he would see me sleeping le.

After 3 weeks, it turns out that our IP address are all blocked! Duhz.. If cannot settle the unblocking, all the efforts will be put to waste...

Today is the 7th day, so fast... Last week seems just like yesterday...

They're great!

Had a blastful night yesterday! Fun will definitely be around with YQ, XL, Ivy and Teh Ni. I was treated to the karaoke, meals, chocolate cheesecake and a box of chocolate, I didn't have this in mind when I asked them out for k-ing. It was just purely for gathering.

As fate planned, after I gathered them for this, I was informed of godpa's death. They came for the funeral on Mon, my birthday. Even though it wasn't really appropriate to wish me on such occassion, they still gave me a belated non-formal celebration. I didn't want any cake, coz I knew we won't be able to fnish it, yet, Ivy and XL still went to buy secretly. For a while we really thought they lost their way, coz they didn't pakat with YQ and Teh Ni also.

As usual, Ivy told us her frustrating love problems, which was nothing unusual already, lol. Teh Ni wasn't spared from being question about his latest r/s; XL made laugh our heads off with her pornish vocal, and YQ had fun photo whoring.

However, we couldn't deny, we are adults, no longer the frisky adolenscents. The fun we had yesterday night were so rare in our daily lives already, that we cherished even more the time we had together, always so carefree and funny.

Too bad life isn't made this way. Anyway, I appreciate what they did for me, and I realised, the greatest enjoyment comes when you have no expectation at all! Just have fun and let our hair down, yeah?

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!

Kill me..

Die lah die lah... Project getting harder... Got the IP address for the chambers today, then couldn't ping to it from server. Tmr I have to liase with the IT suppport to troubleshoot it, sianz... Sup is gonna to be very busy, no time to chup us liao, CC not very good with his programming, then me only skin depth only. 6-7 modules to complete within 2 weeks, I only did about 20%? Chiam lah, want to online also difficult... so cannot post question to those forums... Sianz... Argh!!!

Think my Sat and Sun is gone for good... Bleahz!

Bought a white tube top for $20, wah ha ha ha. Corset kind, very nice! Love at first sight!

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.

What Age Do You Act?

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.
