Orh...

"Atas" means up there (高高在上), also can mean high class in Malay! It is not a English word!
Hiyoh, I had always tot it is English leh! Thank goodness I'm not in some programme which requires writing, else sure fail one!

From http://dictionary.bhanot.net/:
atas- above; up; upon
atasan- superior or upper class
mengatasi- to overcome
teratas- the highest

Yesterday during HRM meeting, as usual we talked a lot of nonsense. Then we were on the topic of CCAs (or ECAs), and so they asked me what CCA I had.

Astro lor. Then they started whether asking me can see this and that blah blah blah. As usual, I made some fatal blunders again.

I said "Actually we can't see SOLARIS in Singapore" blah blah and then agitatedly mentioned the blurp in Fann Wong's drama which they claimed to see the star (obviously hacking off scenes from Winta Sonata)

Of coz we cannot see lah, there's no SOLARIS. It's POLARIS, the NORTH STAR!!!!!!

Somehow my astronomy knowledge somehow kenna mixed up with the Solaris computers I'm facing in my FYP lab, -_-"

TX saboh me to the class rep that I'm their (my team) F&B manager. What the... Heh heh, no doubt I chose the dinner location most of the times... :P coz the rest they all say "Anything" ma. My HRM class wanna have some class gathering. Seriously, dunno for wat lor. Yes, HRM has been an ordeal, but don't have to celebrate right? Just because we have a class rep doesn't mean we need class gathering what. Plus I really don't bond with the other people also. I wonder how many people actually up for this idea.

Jiat Lat liao

I think my FYP prof knew I'm not doing any concrete and substantial work. He requested me to write the results of my weekly report. -_-!!!

Holy Meh~~~!

Bad Day

I had a really bad start to today's day.

I was walking to the bustop when I saw the bus coming. So the usually nua sai me decided to run after the bus lor, never mind the fact that I just gobbled my lunch down, if not must wait a lifetime again.

The bus uncle honked me. :(

In that 3 secs, many ideas flashed though my mind
  • Am I hindering his path as in jay walking (running in this case)? No leh, I was on the zebra crossing!
  • Is there someone behind me who was jay running instead? No leh, I was the only human on the road.
  • Did a car zoom past and cut his lane? No leh, the bus was the only vehicle in that direction.

Then when I on board the bus, the first thing the bus uncle kaopeh was, "You didn't see the sign ending at terminal ah? Honk you already."

-_- I stunned for a while and replied, "I dropping at terminal"

Then I made my way to a seat and plonked down. The more I think the madder I got. I should have talked back to him: "Uncle, ending at terminal doesn't mean I cannot board. You honk me for what? I didn't block your path hor! "

气到要哭!hmpf!

Change skin again

Sick of the post it notes already, coz I have a dozen on my desk and in my lecture notes.

It doesn't matter a bit to spend 1 hr editing the skin and updating my profile when I studied almost the whole day. (Brain is exploding) But my progress is very slow when it comes to tutorials, but at least I sort of understand, right?

Why do time pass so slowly when it comes to studying? Tomorrow is only Monday? But it will be week 10 and exams is in week 14. Kinda scary to think about it.

Countdown to first paper, 14 November!

Hungry and craving for some pizzas... Haiz...

It's time for war! ROAR!!!

Preparation going underway!

REVISION!
TUTORIALS!
ONLINE LECTURES!

1st thing 1st, clear all the projects!

HRM down.

Next to go, Web Design!

ROAR!!!

How do you spend your time?

I was so proud of myself yesterday (Thursday) for completing 2 hours of online lectures and 0.5 question of tutorial 1 (is a drawing question, have to draw the top and side view of a CMOS inverter)

So I firmly told myself to wake up early (Friday, now is 0031, Sat) to do the remaining questions and complete more online tutorials.

I woke up at 2pm... kua kua kua. But then, I slept at 3am! So, 情有可原right?

However, I played games for 8 hours straight, -_-!!! Then followed by 2 hours of TV.

I'm gonna bath now and then continue my study. :P

I'm only 5000 neopoints away from my target: 500 000. After which, I will stop playing. I swear I will steer off Neopets after tomorrow.

Facebook (fluff)friends always cheat my money, don;t want to play already! Hmpf!

Looking Alike

I casually mentioned this to my friend while waiting for lesson, reading the school newspaper with lots of grammar error.

Don't you people think both of them look alike? Exude the same charisma and sexiness?



So the boliao me went to MyHeritage.com and helped them do a Celebrity Look Alike test. Results:


I tried using Keanu's pic, but there was no results about being alike to Leehom.

Oh yah, while Keanu was 97% alike to himself, Leehom was only 86% alike to himself.

Maybe that's the 14% of weight he had lost.

Ohh... Both of them so hot... *fanning myself with my hands ala McD's Ice Latte latest ad

Life is such a teaser

Yeah, HRM cleared!!!

Wah lau, the school bus damn screwed up. U see, usually I will take the Bus B coz it's a shorter route to my school, Then because today I have HRM, I left my hostel rather early in order to catch the bus coz once U missed one bus, u have to wait for a lifetime.

While I was walking down the slope, I saw Bus B leaving, then Bus A was about to leave. So I ran like the Beep Beep bird after the bus A (Bus B bus stop is further away). When I on board Bus A, I saw 3 Bus B coming. -_-!!!

That's not the end. After travelling 3 bus stops down, there were 2 more bus B!!!

为什么会酱?

This is not the most horrible bus encounters. A few weeks ago, also to attend HRM. Missy Ng and me were at the bus stop at 7.45am. 7.45am leh! The bus service starts at 8 lor, but then, after 45 minutes of 痴痴, 慢慢 and 无奈的等待, no sight of Bus B and 3 Bus A had zoomed past. Finally, enough was enough, we ran after the 4th Bus A, which was packed like the 金针菇 with air suck out, we saw Bus B turtling its way.

So the what right?

2 plus years in school, happy bus encounters = 5% of the whole encounters.

Sucks!

Messy

I felt so disorganized, disoriented, messy, lost, muddled, abnormal, screwed up, astray, off track.

I dunno what am I doing, not doing, wasting time, spending time what.

I overslept and missed quite a number of classes, especially tutorials.

I eat non-stop, despite having eaten Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.

I went to bath forgetting to replace my shower foam.

I'm not picking up my notes to study, not doing my tutorials or listen to online lectures.

I'm not cleaning my room, folding my clothes, washing my bedsheets.

I actually missed my bathing on one of those long days (I sweated).

I felt irritated with myself.

I lost my concentration into 45 minutes of meeting.

I played games, for hours.

I don't pack my school bag.

I didn't wash the the microwave-resistant container and it attracted ants.

I'm doing things I'm not supposed to do and not doing things I'm supposed to do, like now.

I should sleep early but I subconciously refused.

I think my period is coming.

Urgh, hates being a woman at this time.

Everything seems to go so wrong everytime.

Please, let this week past sloooooooooowly!

I'm afraid of Thursday, coz it's the day of HRM presentation.

After so many weeks of discussion, we are still stuck at the 6 paths (One strategy in Blue Ocean)! This is A BIG FUCKING SHIT!!!

After today's lecture, Ah Heng's words had sent ants crawling on everybody's backside, and most of them left the lecture and went to do the project. I wasn't affected, I just dropped dead on the table again.

Now, my team and I are discussing online. Headache... Eye pain pain also

I think we gonna camp in the tutorial room tomorrow already.

I am super lagging behind in tutorials and revision! Jiat lat...

Monday Blue

Today was such a lousy day. The electricity tripped for my level, and only that section. The rest were umaffected. Almost died in the heat this morning.

On my way to my first lesson of the day, I dunno how I walked, but I actually banged onto the swinging door when opening. Damn siah suay, coz got a guy behind me!!!

Dropped dead during the 1st half an hour. ZzzZzzZzz

Then received a sms from TX asking me if report was ready. So I decided to skip the tutorials for today and go back to my room to chiong the report.

Electricity still had not regained when I returned, asked for help from the aunite who asked me to call the office. After typing my report for an hour, I dropped dead on my bed, heh heh. Coz it was raining already! So cooling siah.

Finalised the stupid HRM report and powerpoint. Went back to hall.

A day is finished just like that.

On an interesting note, I went to wash my clothes just now and guess what I heard. The guy staying beside the laundry room was obviously wanking to some Jap porn (I assume it was Jap porn coz the girl's sound was very kawaii kind, eh~~ eh~~ eh~~ like that and sounded very chiam) Aiyoh, he tuned the volume until so loud, scared people dunno he is wanking meh? He should learn from my neighbour, tuned the music loud loud mah! Wah ha ha.

I am sho sick (sick as in pervert)

Kanasai

Shortly after writing my "Positive Effect", I brought Jamie to McD, coz it was supposed to be her reward for bathing yesterday. Details later.

Actually, Mum was going to bring her to Woodlands library, so I tot I didn'y have to go. However, Mum insisted that I tagged along to finish the extra burger that came with using the coupon, and also helped her carried the groceries back. Free burger leh! Heh, so I went.

It was 10.45am when we reached McD, and Mum had picked a McChicken Meal coupon for Jamie without my knowing (We kept saying McD breakfast, so I tot she was going to eat McMuffin or something), so bopian, their chickens were still in chicken coop, so I have to wait until 11am lor. Hmm, actually they could already take my order liao right?

Anyway, we waited. Then Mum and joined us with her groceries, looking at the empty table wondering how come we didn't place our order. After explaining to her, she said, "Then we go Woodlands eat lor"

-_-!!!

Sianz, then my Mum kept teasing me that she had conned me into coming to the market without any rewards leh. So I went back home and had second serving of bee hoon to fufill 我心中的饥饿 . 2 hours later, they came back, with a McSpicy Burger! So still not so bad after all.

Anyway, my stomach is on the verge of explosion, and I think I gonna leave the Kong Ba Pao for tmr breakfast.

As for why we reward Jamie because she bath... Coz she refused to go and shower until Jia tempt her with $5 and McD breakfast, but under the condition she rubbed herself clean. JIa did a spot check and Jamie failed twice. Rubbed until the skin peel already le...ha ha...

Wah, and then hor, just when we were making our way to McD. I was helping Jamie unwillingly to carry her library books, and I was wearing an ultra lok kok and big size tee, so I told my mum I looked super duper like a maid. Then how, Mum went off seperate way to buy grocery right, so Jamie and I we walked to McD. The OCBC bank was having some promotion, and there was a pool of OCBC people wearing red T-shirts.

"Shit. They will surely look for me to ask me invest in some plans or something. I looked like a mother with Jamie tagging along me!" I thought. But it was impossible to avoid those people, so I just smiled and ignored lor. The first lady was a very mature woman, 所谓姜还是老的辣,she just asked, "小姐, 有兴趣投资吗?8.8 pa leh"

I just smile, smile, shook my head and continued moving. Thinking, "Wah, she called me 小姐, so maybe I don't look that old!"

Then next was a young lady, and she said to me, "太太,有兴趣吗?这个 plan 的 interest rate 有8.8%"

Although expected she would call me 太太, still a bit buay song, but I just smile smile and shook my head. Anyway, I already shook my head and moved on le, so she should just target someone else already, right? No, she persisted.

"那你有为你的女儿买 education plan 吗?" Looking at chao Jamie.

I continued shaking my head, dun wanna explain too much.

“那你要买吗?我们也有education plan” she continued promoting.

"Actually she's my sister" I spoke out, buay tahan already.

"Oh sorry, thanks for listening and have a nice day" she apologized and looking very paiseh. No worry, not unhappy but still not used to it lor.

As I walked away, I subconciously looked down on my T-shirt and my somehow maybe a bit protruding stomach. Then chao Jamie was there laughing and cackling, "Ha ha, they thought you my Ma Ma"

My hand reached out and gave a tight smack on her head.

Chant: "我要减肥。。。"

Positive Effect

At Hall, I rather sleep than eat.

At Home, I rather eat than sleep.

Interestingly, before 7pm yesterday, I was still in hall doing report. Woke up at 1pm plus (slept at 4am), all I had was a mug of cereals mix with instant coffee. Left for home at 5pm.

It was close to 7pm when I reached home, just in time for dinner. Although it was a very simple 3 dishes with 1 tonic chicken soup, I ate 2.5 bowls of rice leh! Usually I try not to eat so much rice at evening time. Somehow, the soup went very well with the rice, so I just continue scooping. Yummy.

Barely 4 hours later, sitting in front of me was a bowl of piping hot instant noodle. Since I was prepared to sleep at 4am again, I have no worry of getting the extra kilos since I assumed it will be digested by the time I slept. Was fixing my PC, so when it was installing the SP2 at around 3.30am and was gonna take a long time, I decided to sleep since I can't play any games too.

Woke up at 7 plus to switch off the PC. At 8am, Jia came in with a bowl of deliciously home cooked char bee hoon. I dunno whether was it Jia's incessant questions that kept me from drifting to sleep, or was it the aroma of the bee hoon. I tossed and turned in bed like a BBQ pork. Finally, I decided not to sleep, but to eat the bee hoon lah. Ha ha ha.

Sianz, exams coming = not going home for the next 2 months. Need to chain myself to the study table already.

I have an interesting life

Sometimes, things that happen to me always made me stunned in amazement. Like last Friday, all I wanted was just a bowl of Fishball Noodle at Canteen 5.

Scene 1 Act 1 Take 1
Deciding what to eat, looking the pictures displayed on the signboard

Noodle Uncle: Gal, what you want?
Me: Oh, still looking.
Noodle Uncle: Ah... We have many choices, take your time to choose eh...
Me: Ok, I want a Fishball Kway Tiao & Noodle
Noodle Uncle: Xiao Mei, no Kway Tiao already leh
Me: Oh, like that, noodles will do.
Noodle Uncle: Ok, coming right away1

Noodle Uncle slowly prepare the ingredients, cooked the noodle etc. Uncle old mah, plus usually is Noodle Auntie cooked.

Noodle Uncle: Gal, are you local?
Me: Huh? Ah yah...
Noodle Uncle: You dunno how to spell the word "home" is it?
Me: Har???
Noodle Uncle: I say you dunno how to spell the word "home" ah? (Hinting me why am I not going home on a Friday evening)
Me: Oh, tomorrow got project meet....
Noodle Uncle: Tsk, must go home, you parents will miss you. They will think how come you didn't go home.
Me: I also want to go home, but got commitments mah
Noodle Uncle: Cannot, must go home. Like my daughter, will call me if she not going home...
Me (exasperated): Don't worry Uncle, tomorrow you won't see me here already. Tomorrow I go home, ok?
Noodle Uncle: Must go home ah...

At this time, he finished cooking my order and dished the bowl out. And I also digged 2 $1 coins out.

Me: Uncle, is this fishball noodle? Where are the fishballs?
Noodle Uncle: What fishball noodle? This is Bak Chor Mee...
Me (-_-!): Oh, okie, never mind, er... I take lor. Here are $2, Uncle

As I dropped the coins in his palm, I realised there weren't 2 $1 coins. One was a 20 cents coin.

Me: Eh Uncle, paiseh, I took the wrong amount. Wait ah, I find the other $1
Noodle Uncle: Never mind never mind. You shortchange me 80 cents, never mind. Tomorrow you must go home ah!
Me: Huh! Don't want lah, nah, here is the $1. Don't worry Uncle, tomorrow you will not see me here.

Quickly took my noodle and siamed.

Buy noodle also so happening siah.

Citibank Savings Account

Helping a friend to promote Citibank Savings Account. He said, "High interested earn and free cheque book for life as long as account never close"

Interested, please email me limsiqi@singnet.com.sg, subject heading "Citibank Savings Account", with your name, phone number and email address so that I could get my friend to contact you.

If I know you, either email or sms. =)

李老爷真可爱哟!

This 李老爷 is none other than our founding father, Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew, who was the distinguished speaker for our Ministerial Forum this year. The intellectual cell in me was raging and dying to hear him speak in person! (My very cute fren actually said, must see him in real person before he dies, -_-")

I must say, seeing him in real flesh is a thousand, or maybe million times impressive than seeing him in TV. Seeing him right in front of me (OK, not so in front, I was on the tower block) was like a 3D animation history avatar walking and talking to us. I mean, standing right in front of us, is someone we study in history textbook! How many times have we actually linked some history people to their graveyards? Countless, yet this is one real guy, still alive and kicking us mentally.


We weren't allowed to take photos, but we Singaporeans just love breaking rules right?



Disclaimer: I'm taking picture of the screen, I'm not taking picture of MM Lee

No matter how much we think the government sucks, you will be immediately brain-washed after listening to him. Even if we pray to him still doesn't justify the respect and awe we could give him. He really ROCKS!

Although 80% of the time I wasn't quite sure what he was mumbling in his accent(The PA system wasn't very good) and dozing off in the last 10 minutes (at least give me some credit for staying awake for the first 30 minutes lah, I had a long day in school leh), still I managed to catch quite a bit of what he said and writing down in the not-so-exquisite notepad.

The interesting part would be the Q&A section. For those who had read the Straits Times today, would know that he would not leave (the time was up) and had actually requested to answer one more Singaporean's questions (Our generation was mostly taught to listen and not question, agree with me one hands up). MM Lee was saying, "I want to answer question by the Singaporean"

So this gungho guy stood up, after a brief introduction, and said "Er... You want to question me?"

Laughter filled the room. Oh man! What was he thinking?

Anyway, MM Lee asked for his background, his proficiency of languages, especially Chinese. The guy honestly answered that his Mandarin sucks big time lah. Wah, I wanted so much to go and tell MM Lee, "I'm bilingual and my command of Mandarin is better!" Ha ha ha, yaya papaya again. =P

Anyway, this joker couldn't beat the last question, posted by a female art student Miss Chiang. Too lazy to explain coz I totally cannot understand what she was trying to mean, so did MM Lee who asked her to repeat. It's in the ST.

I wanted to ask question too, but 有谋无胆。My concern was the Chinese syllabus is getting easier and children are speaking more English than Chinese. Somehow it would clash with his beliefs coz he did mention that the success of Singapore, especially trade, mainly was because we could speak English, that the govt had foresight that in order to attract investors, English is very important.

Listening to him is one estactic experience which I will never forget.

BITCH

Meaning no. 1: Excluding the female dog, it basically mean bitch as in bitch in vulgarism.
Meaning no. 2: BITCH = Bitch In Total Control.

I'm gonna talk about both!

STUPID BITCH!!!!!!!!!!

Wah lau, it's rea-------------------------------------------------------lly very maddening lor. This SB, she will watch the 9pm channel 8 show faithfully. And for me, I just wanna catch my Ghost Whisperer and Survivor: China religiously weekly. So last Friday, I walked into the TV lounge, and politely asked her, "Are you catching any shows after 10pm?"

Well, she wasn't. So, I joined her in the last 15 minutes. Then the show ended and was showing the credits, so I wanna read the newspaper while waiting. Just as I stood up and wanting to walk over to get the newspaper, the SB tot I was gonna change the channel and she jerked her seat up, "EH! EH! EH! I wanna watch the trailer!"

I was super stunned by the sudden increase in the pitch of her voice when her voice is already high pitch! "I just want to get the newspaper to read..." Deep inside was already screwing her with all sorts of words I could come up with.

Fast forward to just now. This time, my lazy ass was only there at around 9.58pm, as usual, she was lying there like a Sleep Buddha, minus the belly, but I believed it will appear sooner or later with the amount of supper she had. Already acquaintances, we just made some polite talk, "Catching Ghost Whisperer?"

"Yeap"

As usual, I went over just to get the newpaper, her irritaing voice started ringing, "Eh! Eh! Eh! I want to watch the news on MM Lee". Uber tulan, I waited until the first 5 minutes was over, then I switched to channel 5, totally oblivious of her. But I switched back when the commercial set in, still no news of MM Lee. So I tuned back to channel 5 and made myself comfortable.

Losing my point a bit, what I wanted to say is, must she go "Eh Eh Eh?" Please lah, I have enough brain to ask you for permission if i want to switch the bloody tv channel. She was just assuming that I was going to tune the tv when my hands were not even raising up! (The TV was installed on the wall)

Typical selfish brainless girl who thinks everyone is as brainless and selfish as her.

I'm so gonna be a BITCH to that bitch next week, if she Ehed at me again! "My name is KICK YOUR BLOODY MOUTH IF YOU CALL ME EH AGAIN"

Ha ha, I'm so gentle and nice, of coz won't do that. Still, must think of something to kick her habit of calling me Eh.

Huh?

Time: 7.52am
From: Sijia
Message: I express my gravest sympathy for conveying this message to you. Agent Electric Brain has met with mishap unfortunately. Condition of injuries unknown. Enemy believe to be Trojans. Huge implications are anticipated. Allies are affected too. Major applications are malfunction as of 0700hrs today. Agent LSQ, please advise immediately. Period.

Huh?

Time: 8.02am
From: Sijia
Message: I just wanna say the PC is dead. Think is through MSN. I wanted to check work email just now coz office line is down then discovered. All sorts of error messages popped up. Last night was still ok. I think I jinx all gadgets. Guess you gotta bring your laptop back if you're coming back.

Chey, say until so cheem. Subconciously, after the first message, I was dreaming of formatting the PC already.

Quiz again tmr, please por bee me I can clear my tutorials tonight.

Gone

Illegal Roomie is in hall 5 now, still, 50% of her stuffs are still in my room. *Shrugz*, hope she clear them before December 就谢天谢地了。

After she moved the more important stuffs out, the first I did was to sweep the corner which was coated with hair and dust. From sweeping, I turned to mopping with a rag, and I ended up cleaning the fan too.

Sing: 好大的风~~~ 好大的风~~~~

Missy Ng actually wahed when she entered my room, and I proudly said, "很不一样hor!". I am such a yaya papaya, but is true that my fan is super powerful now! Ha ha ha.

Shall be a good girl and clean the house fans these weekend if going back.

Now that she's gone, I can do my work until freaking 3am! In the past, Illegal Roomie would be light out at, latest 1am, and I would join her in dreamland barely 10mins later, because
  1. She would toss and turn at the slightest sound
  2. Sometimes she would "tsk" subconciously
  3. She would suddenly sleep talk which frightened me
  4. Sleep temptation was there

So, now I can work as late as I want and complete all my stuffs leh! So proud of myself! (Excuses again, mu ha ha ha)

Tuesday is damn tiring! I dropped dead on the chair during the HRM lecture. Thank goodness TX wasn't sitting beside me, else he would suan me again. Still, I wasn't spared when he happily "announced" to the team (2 of them wasn't there when we went for Botak Jones) that I had the biggest meal among them that time. The most absurd part was he told them the suasage was as thick as his hand! It was only as thick as 50 cents, excluding the bacon wrap lor. Wah lau, I was just having a casual remark that I was hungry coz WC was also telling me she hungry and TX started telling them my Botak Jones story. I wanted so much to tell him that I could have finished the bread when he mentioned he was quite surprised that I couldn't finish the meal, but then 还是留一点面子给自己.

Shit, craving for Botak Jones fries siah...
