Copenhagen

Hey all! I'm in Copenhagen now..internet is free in this hotel, so shiok ah...I can use internet the whole day...hee..

This is a very special Christmas for me. Although everywhere is closed here, I had my share of fun and nice memories... :)

Only regret: I did not get to see a white Christmas...but the weather is damn cold... -2 degree Celcius! Freezing man...
But cold on the outside, warm in the heart.. :)

I will be going back to Singapore in a few hours' time! It's 7.07am here now, 1020am the plane will take off for Singapore...

Home sweet home! Yay! :D

Anyway, this is dedicated to Naimin: Happy Birtday to you! I know it's 27th, not 28th yet, but here's a greeting from me in advance! Cya tomorrow! :D

Merry Christmas everyone!

Merry Christmas to all! Ok, I know there's another 2 days before Christmas, but I will be working so this is an early greetings to all of you! :P

I am getting more used to being alone..in fact, I like being alone! Especially when I go out overseas, shop alone, eat alone, walk alone, drink coffee alone...
Ok, probably that's a sign of me becoming anti-social..what an irony, my job making me more anti-social...LOL...

Well...being the straightforward me...说话总是口无遮拦...my bad...always say things without thinking twice...and worse is that I say things that hurt others...happily!
So ends up it seems as if I'm proud and talking down to people...especially friends that I love.. :(
Sometimes I even make jokes at the expense of others' pride..and it can be hurtful, no matter how unintentional I want to be..

Sometimes I wish my mouth can only sing, and that's all..
But I guess that's not going to be the way I grow to be a better person..I have to learn how to speak and listen wisely...talk only when necessary..if I can't joke, then I might as well just remain a boring person as I am now..sometimes try too hard will get negative results...WORSE!

To the people whom I have hurt by my words or actions, I apologise! :)
I am really sorry to have said things that will be better off left unsaid...but I know that the damge has been done. I don't know if any of you will read this, but I have no intention of putting you down when I said certain things. I just lack the wisdom of phrasing my words properly before they come out of my mouth. In the end, they hurt.

Anyway, nowadays I can't even catch my colleagues' jokes..especially the guys'..their jokes are simply too chim for me to understand, or we are just of very different frequency...oh well...as long as they are happy and don't tekan me can le..I just wanna work my share and get my money...haha..

矛盾的心情

很久没有用中文写部落格了。

我是个很容易emo的人,一点点小事就会不开心,或是想很多事,而且是往比较负面的方面想。可是我不喜欢这样的自己,觉得人生就只有几十年,做人应该要看得开,能有多开心就有多开心。人生应该是充满欢笑的,不是多愁善感。至少,我不喜欢这样。

偏偏,我就是这样。我不要!我要做一个开开心心,很会开玩笑,事事都能从容应对的人。

可是到最后,我还是会作回我自己。哈哈!

最近这几个月发生很多事情,我步入人生的另一段旅程、刚开始的恋情一下子就结束、父亲生病动手术等等。每一次好不容易平复的心情又再一次地被波动。

很累。


孤独。


不安。


难过。


哭不出来的心痛。


还要强颜欢笑。
一边阻止眼泪流下,一边微笑工作的时候真的很难熬。


没关系,这些不愉快的日子很快会过去。

我期待美好明天的到来。

:)

Thank you my dear friends!

Hey all...

Thank you so much for all your concern! My dad is fine! :D

He's recuperating at NUH now and he's recovering slowly. We are not sure if there is a need for him to undergo chemotherapy or radiation therapy treatment, but we will find out from the doctor on Monday, which is tomorrow. Currently he still cannot eat anything except to drink water...

Tonight I will be flying off to Adelaide and will only be back on Tuesday evening. By then I will update again.. :)

Thanks again for everything my dear friends!

For choir peeps: I will be flying around during Christmas, and it is so coincidental that I would not be in town on all your performance dates.. :( which means I cannot join you guys AT ALL... SIANZ...
You all jiayou ok! I will give you all moral support no matter where I am! :D

I love AJ Alumni Choir!

Life is unpredictable

This kinda title always give people a negative feeling, doesn't it?

Haha! Well, life is not that negative for me, but some hiccups here and there... Which is enough already.

Work is fine, I just came back from San Francisco and Korea (Incheon). Worked hard and 挂了彩. haha. Got awarded a cut on my index finger and a burnt mark on my arm. Please, don't become a permanent mark, if not I will wonder if my company will continue to keep me or not. LOL

The 2 places are fun, went sightseeing, shopping, had good food. I had breakfast buffet at the hotel in SFO and had dinner buffet at the hotel in Incheon, with my colleagues. They are very nice to me, and I received praises of my good attitude at work.. :)

But, I did not really enjoy myself that much too.

The day before I flew, my dad went for a body check up at NUH and he was diagnosed with colorectal cancer, after 9 years, but this time, it's on the opposite as before. So, the irritating thing is, after knowing this, I still have to report for work in the early morning on the next day.. I got to work as normal, smile to colleagues and customers... and to be away for 7 whole days.. not able to accompany my dad...

On Wednesday, the results of the CT scan came out. There is cancer but luckily there is no spread to other organs and whatsoever. I was relieved, but I seriously can't wait to go home... :S

My parents were so happy to see me back at home. Especially papa... I can see and feel his sense of relief when he sees me back at home. And he started WHINING to me...LOL..so cute..

But, that also shows his insecurity and fear. Now, it's my turn to give a sense of security to my parents. And I am glad that I am able to provide that security for them. Switching of roles. When we were young, we often have to rely on our parents for everything we need. Perhaps many of us are still relying on our parents, including myself of course, because most of our parents are still healthy and working to provide for the family. But after this incident, I suddenly realise, things may change all of a sudden. Everything can swap positions. So, we have to be prepared. We are already adults, right?

My dad will be undergoing an operation on Friday, and he will be admitted to the hospital on Thursday, hope I won't be called up for work on Wednesday so that I can go with him, together with my brother. He is scared. Who won't? Last night he could not sleep. He told my mum that he is afraid. Haiz...poor papa... I hope after the operation he will become very healthy and happy. Same for my mama..she's been suffering as well...

Everything will be alright! :)




Streets of Chinatown
















Chinatown in San Francisco (reminds me of the 海外华人 module in NUS, haha)












Fisherman's Wharf




























































St Paul and St Peter's Church (where Marilyn Monroe got married)













Inside the church. It's a Catholic church...so during the prayer, I suddenly felt a sense of "belonging" to it, reminds me of my secondary school days.. :)





















Digress a bit here...this pic was taken in Auckland. Very pretty right? It contains the envelopes and hotel information...if you wanna bring them home, especially the box..you gotta pay... :)








Seals! Oops..sorry they are sea lions and not seals.. acoording to the description at the Wharf..there's a difference between sea lions and seals... most of it that we see at the zoos which performed are sea lions and not seals.. I forgot what's the difference... hehe..












I like this pic. The gal is pretty and the guy is suave and cool...ahem...I mean the other gal looks handsome...but gals, pls don't fall for me cos I'm straight! LOL!!
(OMG pls don't throw shoes at me!! I'm just joking! :P)










The Golden Gate Bridge right behind me!












Santa Claus gallery in Incheon's hotel. Did not take many pictures there, and most of the pics are with my colleagues...LOL

Good attitude and Positive Thinking goes a long way

Hi all!

As usual, I'm just back here to crap a bit..haha..

Been working for 2.5 months, and things are getting better, at least I am more used to the job liao..won't get so dreadful..

And I received some compliments from my superiors, saying I have a very good attitude and I'm enthusiastic about the job, and they ask me to keep it up. :)

I do not wish to become complacent or too comfortable with the job. I mean, once I become more senior, I can just go for flights, not prepared, as long as I know my work. But I don't like the feeling of being caught off-guard unprepared, especially when the leaders ask me questions about the job. I don't like being "blur blur" during work and then get criticised, of course, who likes that? No one. It makes me feel useless and irresponsible. I have seen some bo chap people. Really bo chap. For example, things that we can do, or give to customers, because of the inconvenience, they just said we cannot do this, or we cannot give that. I know it's inconvenient, but it's part of the job right? Customers pay so much, our salary is not little also, since it's just a simple request, why be so pek chek about it?

Anyway, I agree with what some seniors said, when you knowyour job better, you will start to enjoy more when you are not working. It's true, I am not saying that I know my job very well now, I still get corrected everytime I work, but generally, I am more or less ok, so as things get easier, I can interact with my colleagues better, and when we're out together, I won't feel that uptight and uncomfotable anymore. That's something good. How I wish I can become senior soon, clear my probation, then I think I can really enjoy what I am doing. :)

Anyway, things should not be too easy. Challenges are good for improvement. The more experiences we get, the more things we learn, and the more knowledge and wisdom you will achieve.

Say YES to difficulties, obstacles and challenges!

放屁过来!呃,是放马过来!:D

Finally can load some pics!


My colleague and I, on the train from Narita to Shinjuku...

Athens

Went to Athens from Tuesday till Saturday. It was a beautiful city and it is very historical...too bad I did not join the hotel tours to find out more about the place. My colleague went for the tour alone and heard that she went to a theatre that has very fantastic accoustics. She said if you drop a pin in the middle of the theatre (provided it's silent of course), you can hear the sound of the dropping pin throughout the theatre...imagine one day, if AJ or AJ Alumni choir has the chance to go there and perform..woohoo! Shiok! :D (Think too much)

We went to Acropolis and the town centre where there are flea markets and shops...the flea markets don't really look like flea markets to me...or rather, they are not really the kind of flea markets we see in Singapore...they cater more to tourists...so basically many shops sell the same stuff...local food products, accessories, etc etc...

Captain was very nice to bring us around...with him and another guy around, we gals felt very relieved...with them asking around for us, navigating the place using the maps etc, we felt very safe...haha...gals...haiz...
Being the usual kpo me, I tried learning how to read maps from the Captain...actually it's not that difficult, just that I have very "moody" direction sense, sometimes OK sometimes cui...lol...

The weather was nice too! 16 degrees to around 20+...very cooling and comfortable...as compared to Singapore..aiya...cant compare lah...Singapore's weather, only one word to describe: CUI

Dammit, I can't upload any pics... sian...

I'm back!!!

Im sorry my dear friends...MIA for ONE MONTH! How are you all??? :)

Oops...not on purpose...always wanna blog, but plenty of excuses to avoid blogging, lazy lah, no time lah, forget lah...whatever...haha

For the past month I've been to quite a number of places...Japan, South Africa, China, Paris, Bombay, Dubai and so on...

Took quite a number of pictures, so it's totally impossible for me to upload them here...so..please click here if you are interested to see where I've been...hee..

For the Paris pics, half of the pics are my colleague's pics, I just copied and paste his pics into my com that time, so that we don't have to waste time sorting out.. so the room was his! My room was bigger and nicer..lol

Went to Shanghai to look for dear Joyce, passed her the mooncakes and other stuff bought by her mummy...and we went Qi Pu Road to shop!!! (together with my colleague as well)
Shopping was great, things were cheap and we hada great time together. The best part was taking "Tut tut" (those small taxis you see in Thailand) back to our hotel...the people there, according to Joyce, has no concept of time wan, the uncle was telling us that 3 of us can squeeze into the "car", and the journey is only 20min...

WAH LAO, the journey was 45min long! And we all agreed that the uncle is very zai..in fact the people there has very "hiong"(fierce) driving skills...this uncle, in order to avoid the jam, actually drove up to the pedestrian walkway and went back down to the road...at their high class shopping area lah! We were laughing throughout the journey man...amazed by how we actually got such an experience...
I even got cramps on my right leg...it was totally numb, and I can't feel my heels touching the bottom at all... :S

We were fated to take that Tut tut...cos initially we wanted to go back to hotel and eat our dinner near the hotel, then we could not get any cabs..the same tut tut uncle wanted to take us, but we refused, so we went to Mac to eat instead, thinking we may get transport after some time...

So we went back to the road, and the same tut tut uncle came back! He was laughing at us, saying that he had just came back from 1 trip and we are still there! (What the...) So bo bian...running out of time le..so we took the tut tut back... haha.. what a super long story...

Ok lah, regarding my job, I'm getting the hang of it le I think...of course still a bit blur every now and then, but I think I got the gist le...and I'm more confident to speak to passengers le...especially during safety checks... :)

But every time before work, I'll tend to become moody...dread going to work...got emotional..struggling inside me...and suddenly recalling all the unhappy things that has happened to me in these few months...emotional struggle...sometimes pulling me apart...not to mention that I gotta plan my finances, getting insurance and stuff...all the little little things...I'm such a messy person with a messy life and I'm trying to sort it out and simplify things with whatever little free time I have...

Feel confused sometimes, and sian...about my life, especially my future...what is my future going to be like? How long will I stay in this job? What kind of job will I get next time? Fancy worrying about this when I just started work..I have to tell myself, I had betta try to enjoy this part of my life now, my job, etc...because once it's over, it's over, and I have to move on...time waits for no man...

活在当下!

So tired sometimes...but I wanna be happy!!! I wanna be happy! Luckily I'm blessed with a great family and friends whom I can turn to for support...

Guess I have to learn to stop thinking so much.

Wish everyone have a fulfilling life and future! Live the moment! Learn to enjoy and appreciate whatever you are doing now and all the other things that are coming your way!

Greener pasture on the other side??

Once my colleague told us before...

Why do you think the pasture is greener on the other side?

Some of us thought it's because of human psychology, some don't know, etc...

He answered:" Because the other side has more shit lah! Fertilise the grass that's why the pasture is greener what.."

Haha..quite true...sometimes from our side we thought that other people are better, their jobs are better etc...but who knows? Maybe they have more shit work to handle?

:P

So what's next?

Recently many things happened to me...

Makes me very tired...

and yet I have to put on my mask everytime I put on my uniform...no wonder some instructors say many actresses/actors were former "colleagues"...can act very well...maybe soon I'll be a 变脸大师 even...

Anyway...regarding Dubai...aiyo it was SUPER hot...40+ degrees vs 30+ degrees at night...my colleagues brought me out to buy their local snacks and we all had dinner before going back hotel to rest...

Had a gathering at one of the colleagues' room and we played Dai Dee, a few rounds and sian already..and we had beer also..I sounded like a bad girl hor? I drank one can of Heineken...then we all chit chatted..about all kinds of things, about life/work experiences...all the way till Spore time 6am before we went back our own rooms to sleep..I was the only one who stayed at a different level with the rest...the "manager" also but he's the most senior of course different...then me being the most junior I got the lowest floor...LOL...

Luckily everything was fine...just that when I ate lunch in the room halfway, wanting to watch TV, so I meddled with the remote, but the TV channel's don't work...then after a while the TV switched on itself...but the channels were blurred...crazy TV...anyway, it was broad daylight...I opened the curtains wan...so don't think too much..some TVs are quite auto wan... :)

so I stayed in my room, watching TV the whole time, slept, wrote my diary and went to sleep before I prepare myself to go work again....






The food we had at a Dubai restaurant..shiok..the mutton curry and chicken...I love their Naan (which means bread)... each person ard S$14 ba...reasonable.. :)

And the view from my hotel room...they seem to be having construction everywhere...so nothing much lor...but it's really HOT HOT HOT...

Some thoughts recently

Changed my song profile...my current favourite song...石欣卉's 《我知道我变漂亮了》..the show 《一切完美》 was nice, and the song is also good, I like the lyrics...written by 石欣卉 herself.

过去的批评嘲讽 (Let it go, let it go)
过去的轻蔑冷落 (Let it go, let it go)
有些人口不饶人
却忘了瞧瞧自己 又有什么资格

时刻都善良待人 (let's move on, let's move on)
时刻都做好本分 (let's move on, let's move on)
有些人心思浅薄
绝不是宽容 自暴自弃的理由

也许 确实也受过言语打击
也许 从来也没什么好际遇
千万别将勇气深锁在阴影里
我们又不会妨碍这世界继续美丽

我知道我变漂亮了 (我知道我被注意了)
曾难过 曾失落 微笑一下就过
外在的美貌容易戳破
内在的美好细水长流
我知道我变漂亮了 (我知道我也豁达了)
不自卑 不埋怨 就算还差一点点
用 内涵弥补一切缺陷
内在的美 迷住每个人的眼

时刻都善良待人 (let's move on, let's move on)
时刻都做好本分 (let's move on, let's move on)
有些人心思浅薄
绝不是宽容 自暴自弃的理由

也许 想说的话总埋在心底
也许 想要的爱可望而不可及
竭尽全力争取 幸福会看到你
大声说 你的真心全世界最动听

我知道我变漂亮了 (我知道我被注意了)
曾难过 曾失落 微笑一下就过
外在的美貌容易戳破
内在的美好细水长流

我知道我变漂亮了 (我知道我也豁达了)
不自卑 不埋怨 就算还差一点点
用 内涵弥补一切缺陷
内在的美 迷住每个人的眼

一个两个不懂 丑小鸭变天鹅啊
需要时间比较多
走过了伤痛才看得更通透
不到最后不会懂命运安排了什么

我知道我变漂亮了 (我变漂亮了)
曾难过 曾失落 微笑一下就过
外在的美貌容易戳破
内在的美好细水长流

我知道我变漂亮了 (我知道我也豁达了)
不自卑 不埋怨 就算还差一点点
用 内涵弥补一切缺陷
内在的美 迷住每个人的眼

用 内涵弥补一切缺陷
内在的美 迷住每个人的眼



I'm going to Dubai tomorrow! Coming back on Thursday morning 9am...means a night flight for me again...shag but also good, that means people will be sleeping...hiaks...

Seriously, currently at the initial stage, the job is tiring...and transition from a student to a working adult is kind of a drastic change, especially having to cope with the job...cos this job is kinda...special...
Sometimes I will even think, why did I want to try for this job in the first place...haha...the whole thing seems to have no link to my character at all...and that also explains the surprised faces when everyone knows that I'm into it...LOL...

Well, I think I really need time to adapt to all the changes, from a student to a working adult, irregular working hours, irregular working days, tons of DIFFERENT people I see everytime including colleagues...drastic change is the NORM for this job...I guess everyone who just got in also took quite some time to adapt ba...

I heard some people cry cos they kena scolded badly for the first day at work, some cried cos they cannot stand the loneliness overseas, all sorts...so far, I'm ok...still praying hard for myself though...haha...

I'm still blur and slow...TRYING hard to be steady...and I really must exercise lots!!! No strength to carry trays and pulling carts! Amazing!! LOL..

Oh...but...I don't really feel that excited having to go overseas leh...jialat..instead I feel very happy when I touched down in Spore...cos it's home sweet home! Maybe as what I've mentioned earlier, I need more time to adapt..and this job actually makes me realised that I missed my loved ones very much..and I should treasure having them around me even more...even my parents, I can feel that I talk to them a lot more nowadays, and they are seizing every moment to communicate with me when I'm home...not as if we aren't close before...but we are even closer now... :)

And it also made me miss someone even more too...i hope it's the same the other way round... :)

I'm off on coming Friday (22 Aug), Sunday (24 Aug), 30 Aug (Saturday evening cos I come back from Paris in the morning, I need to slp..hee), 31 Aug & 01 Sep (Sunday and Monday), 04 Sep (Thursday), 06 Sep (Saturday)...so far that's all I have... :)

Shanghai and Adelaide trips

Hey friends, I'm back!

MIA too long le...not free and kinda lazy to blog...hee...I don't even have time to read friends' blogs now...so not sure how's everyone's doing nowadays...so sorry!!! :S

Just came back from Adelaide and Shanghai...Adelaide was cold and dark when I was there...winter mah, then Shanghai was hot and humid, but fun! :D





Taken in Adelaide from my room...Hilton Hotel...I stayed on the 3rd level and 2nd level has a swimming pool! But too bad it's winter so no point being so happy...LOL





The Shanghai Millenium Hotel...This is part of the room...notice the toilet, got glass window that you can look into from the room...hiaks... *don't think too much, I stayed alone..* :P




Further back is the sofa...





This makes the room even bigger! The room is seriously huge..bigger than the living room in my house now...





东方明珠! My Indian friend took this pic for me...she has studied a bit of photography before...not bad sia...? :)














The 2 friends I went Shanghai with... :) We were on a cruising tour around Shanghai's "City Hall" area, I supposed...





















Are these part of 外滩? I'm not sure...but I know that area got 外滩,or what we people like to say “上海滩”...LOL




















Soon I'll be going to some other places like Dubai, Hong Kong, Jakarta, Paris, Perth, Chennai (India) etc...till early Sep...some are just for a day...if you get what i mean...so won't really get to shop...Paris will be fun I hope..hee..so far that will be the furthest place I will go... :)

When I'm not so lazy again I will put the dates of when I'm free here...pardon for my lousy and weird English..many things are kinda inconvenient to mention...so please do me a favour, don't mention anything on the chat box also..thank you very much! :D

毕业咯!NUS Commencement 2008

我毕业了!

4年就这样过了,可见时间真得过得很快。在这4年里,除了上课、赶作业、作报告之外,我还认识了许多好朋友、老师、同事(因为期间有打假期工),甚至是男友,嘻嘻。这些点点滴滴的回忆都将成为陈香吉生命中的珍贵记忆,所以毕了业之后,除了带走文凭,我也会把这些美好的回忆给带走…… :)

谢谢大家对小妹陈香吉这段珍贵的记忆“做出贡献”。哈哈!我爱你们!:D

一些在毕业典礼后所拍的照片:



A pic with my beloved parents. :D




With Dr Ong who helped me with my ISM...as I have mentioned before, he's a super duper nice teacher!




With Dr Liang, who has helped me tremendously for my ISM too. It is my great honour to know him and got his help for my paper.




I like this pic. :)



This is a photo not to be missed...allow me to be a bit BHB...uh hum...六大美女 at THE CHINESE DEPT of NUS!!! :D

Many people didn't turned up for my convocation because...because i didn't inform anyone except my parents and bf (but he's working so he can't make it)...HOW BLUR CAN I GET?!?!?!?! I'm so sorry!!!! :P

The moment I got home I got a "scolding" from my eldest brother...he always wanted to shoot the moment I receive the scroll from the Chancellor...and I smashed his..erm...dreams? But this goes to show that my brother is proud of me...hee... :P

1 more month to the end of my training...need to buy a cabin bag and luggage, and probably some winter clothing or what cos I'm going to a cold Adelaide...hmm...I'll continue to be broke even when my next pay comes... :S

Welcome back home Joyce and Joycelyn!!

Recently 2 of my friends - Joycelyn and Joyce - came back from Australia and China respectively. Welcome back to Singapore girls! :D

Now I'm at the 3rd part of my course liao..learning emergency and safety stuff...

Remember people, whenever you take a plane, please try to wear LONG pants or skirts (for females of course)! You never know when emergencies will come (CHOI!), but if you ever need to use the slide, it's better to cover your legs and hands...they can burn your limbs for goodness sake... :S

Anyway, the course is fun yet boring...many many things to learn and remember, like the equipments and commands and procdures etc...but practical parts are quite fun...I shall not elaborate anymore... :)

Finally went to join AJ Alumni Choir last week! And congrats to Chee Guan (President), Whee Geok (Vice President), Guo Wei (Marketing), Zheng Kai (Secretary) and Mei Rong (Treasurer)!!! Jiayou guys! Keep the choir active and please try to get the juniors to join! I'll miss you guys though... :(

I'll be going to Adelaide on 30th July @ 2345, coming back the next day evening...for my very very first flight...ALONE...good and bad...other gals got company but I'm alone...nvm...I shall to pray hard that I get to meet good people onboard... :)

Then 3rd August @ 0805 I'll be heading to Shanghai, and coming back on the 4th... :)
Not much time to walk around though..sianz...but I know I'll have plenty of chances... :)

JIAYOU!! :D

Bo Liao Stuff

Ya, as the title suggests, this post is about BO LIAO STUFF, so if you are not BO LIAO now, then better don't read... LOL

Some bo liao stuff discovered, seen, noticed, found during bo liao moments, especially during studying.. hehe..

1) Went to 某S Sushi at Park Mall on 30th April (Wednesday) with Lia and YY for supper buffet...hehe...
Had lots of food and laughter throughout the meal...laughing at each other, esp my dear gf YY...LOL..so bad, bf LAUGH at gf all the while with another fren...wahaha!
We ordered the fried vegetables and were wondering how come our order had not appeared on our table after half an hour...so we were kinda pek cek, and wanted to call for service using their computerised ordering system...
And this is what we saw:



See the Call for HELP??? The next moment 3 of us laughed and said: "HELP! HELP!救命啊!" .......

Idiotic...

LOL

2) Went to hand in our VERY LAST ASSIGNMENT IN NUS...训诂学作业3...
So I "copied" Irene (not exactly la, kinda lazy to stop and take pics) and tried to re-enact the scene of walking to Chinese department and hand in my homework...




At AS7 Level 3, Chinese Department. Just take the stairs next to level 2's computer cluster to level 3, and you'll see this long corridor of our profs' offices...




After walking past the corridor, you'll see blue sofas, turn left, and you'll see the Chinese Department office and these mail boxes...



Look for the "desired" (*puke*) mailbox and THROW your work in..



Met dearie Tannie yesterday at Orchard and we had a very nice and long girls' chat. Haven't seen her for more than a year...I've known her since 6years old...17 years liao...OMG...真的是“青梅竹马”的咯!
祝你幸福 dear! :D

Ok that's all...nothing much liao...haha..

Last assignment ever in NUS submitted!!!

Finally submitted the VERY LAST assignment that I had done in NUS..

Relieved? Relaxed? Happy? Hmm..relaxed, yes, but not exactly relieved or happy...more of...NUMB...

Probably like what Kailin had said, we have been rushing assignments for the past month or so..one after another...so, everytime after handing in one paper, we still have the next one to do...and so the gan cheong feeling continues to stay..probably because we still have one more exam...also ONE LAST EXAM to be taken in NUS le...haha..

Graduating very soon, going to work very soon..time flies..
From primary school to secondary school to JC to university...our life is so standard, ya standard is the word...
So standard and protected...
...

And next we're going to face REALITY, perhaps all the while in school, we've been living in a dream..as i said, we're so protected and sheltered..such that, whenever we face difficulties, there always seemed to be someone there for us to lean on..parents, siblings, friends, teachers, etc...the list goes on...
But working life...who exactly can we lean on when we face difficulties at work? perhaps u may think that im overly worried here..well, i'm not worried (yet), juz perhaps, skeptical..because u dunno who u can trust when u're out dere...hmm...
But, I'll still do my best to help others when ppl need help, I may not be able to trust ppl much, but i want to be trusted...at least be sincere towards ppl...others dun do it, but that doesn't mean i sldn't do it...right?

Hopefully, I can still believe that by treating others with sincerity, ppl will treat me with sincerity too..after I stepped out to work..unless their conscience have been eaten up, then I have nothing to say..haha..

Oh well, 一切要经历过才知道咯!

《身骑白马》——徐佳莹

听了会让人想哭的一首歌

《身骑白马》
我愛誰 跨不過 從來也不覺得錯
自以為 抓著痛 總能修成愛的果
偏執相信著 受詛咒的水晶球
阻擋可能心動的理由

而你卻 靠近了 逼我們視線交錯
原地不動 或向前走 突然在意這分鐘
眼前荒沙瀰漫了等候
耳邊傳來孱弱的呼救
追趕要我愛的不保留

我身騎白馬 走三關
我改換素衣 過中原
放下西涼沒人管
我一心只想王寶釧 (摘自福建歌仔戏)

>>薛平貴和王寶釧的愛情故事



A competitor in 超级星光帮 composed and sang this song...nice...
I wanna learn how to sing it! Joyce, come back and we sing together! :D

21 year-old birthday party @ ..... McDonald's King Albert Park!

Haha..kinda happening this weekend...when it's supposed to be the EXAM PERIOD for most of us...

Where did I go today?

Ans: To celebrate out dear Tan Chee Guan's 21st birthday party @ King Albert Park McDonald's!!!

I can only say it's a very innovative and BOLD idea to hold an ADULT BIRTHDAY PARTY @ MACS...LOL...




Birthday boy in BIG RED BOW TIE...hahaha..














We were literally treated like 5 year-old kids..playing games: follow the "big sister's" instructions and dance with the music...like doing the Twinkle Twinle Little Star action and shake butts, then proceed to playing another Island game, where we're supposed to dance around our Island (a pc of Mac tray paper), when the music stops, we have to step on the paper. As the music goes on again, the person will take away some of the papers, and more people will have to squeeze on the paper, who gets kicked out will kena penalty...but...we were just dancing and laughing around and nobody got 'punished' in the end...
And EVERYONE else in Mac were staring into the party room, amazed at so many "BIG KIDS" playing around, making so much noise...haha!

Big Sister: Ok kids, are all of you hungry??? *smiles*
BIG KIDS: (loudly) YES!!!
Big Sister: Ok, so before you eat, what should you do?? *smiled again*
BIG KIDS: WASH HANDS!! WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Then came the worst part...we have to queue up in twos and form a choo-choo train line and go out and wash hands!!!
Instead of going straight to the toilet which is just outside the party room, we were brought to parade around the whole of Mac, in 2 lines, with our hands on the shoulders of the person in front... (-_-|||) Damn AA, fun, but SUPER malu!!
*Hope no one I know saw me that please..*

It was really fun...and I just realised that many of us have either never held a party at Mac before or have never been to one when we were young.. I only attended Mac parties before, twice or thrice I think..can't remember..

It really brought back some childhood memories, if not, brought us back to the times when we were kids, and had a great time together playing, laughing, eating, making lots of noise...and..being cute!! haha..the party hat was...classic...haha..

Thank you Chee Guan for the party! Anyway Happy 21st Birthday! May your wishes come true! Welcome to join us ah! Enjoy being an adult! haha... :P

To the rest, good luck in the upcoming exams again! Then enjoy the long-awaited holidays! :D

五月天《回到地球表面》巡迴演唱會 Mayday Returns to the Surface of Earth Concert 2008

五月天又回來了!

完美的搖滾音樂、‘從天而降的突擊隊員’和前所未有的吊橋同時出現在新加坡室内體育館!



新加坡是五月天《回到地球表面》演唱會的第一站。



這就是所謂的‘吊橋’,因爲它真的可以被吊起來,所以叫‘吊橋’。哈哈!



阿信直接站在眾歌迷的旁邊唱歌。帥斃了!:D




阿信漸漸走過我們,再回到臺上去。



忘了介紹,這是和我一起去看演唱會的好朋友之一,凱琳!:D



凱琳旁邊那位是她的雙胞胎姐姐,凱雯!也是我大學的好朋友哦! :D



回到演唱會去,這是阿信和怪獸再次出現在我們面前的時刻!不好意思,用小妹我的手機拍的,效果不太好,盡請原諒!:P



我拍到的最好的照片!阿信就站在我面前,似乎有在看著我的鏡頭 hor! 可是如果放大來看的話,其實沒有啦……哈哈!超帥的啦!

It's not easy to write about a concert in a news article way, and I just reached home from the concert, quite tiring to think of how to write, so I shall just write in my own style, according to what I remember! hehe...

一开场,5個白马王子的出现就吸引了在场所有观众的尖叫聲!我忘了他们厂的第一首歌是什么,好像是我不太熟悉的歌。不过我发现,有些我没听过的歌其实很好听!好象《九号球》和闽南歌曲《垃圾车》,好听!摇滚歌曲一手接着一首,抒情的、快节奏的,不管是什么,只要是五月天的音乐,大家都high了起来!:D

到了演唱会的一半,他们都开始从台上走到吊桥去,中间还经过了观众席,从头到尾,让我们能够360度地看到五月天!其实他们几个男生也够A的,哈哈!大家为玛莎唱生日歌,后来他们又说什么没有蛋糕之类的话,玛莎便开起冠佑的玩笑来,说什么就把蜡烛往他身上插好了,之后大家都大笑,他们几个又说要鞭玛莎等。噢,玛莎还穿了裙子!从舞台跑到吊桥上,玛莎直言说他穿着裙子,很难跑!后来阿信也当场把玛莎‘推销’了一番,说什么玛莎今年31岁,单身,嗜好就是穿裙子,然后带着长长的吊饰(当时他的裙子上吊着一条链子吧)……又把我们惹笑了。哈哈!

其实,他们唱的歌曲好像不太多,反而是花了许多时间在和歌迷们在互动,比如来个感性时间的聊天啦、教我们配合做些动作、呐喊等。歌曲大概有(不分排名先后,只照我的记性记录下来),《闯》、《天使》、《知足》、《垃圾车》、《轧车》、《倔强》、《洋葱》、《离开地球表面》、《我又初恋了》、《九号球》、《恒星的恒心》、《生命有一种绝对》、《终结孤单》、《孙悟空》、《恋爱-ing》、《叫我第一名》、《爱情万岁》、《温柔》等。其他的我不记得了。hehe...

《生命有一种绝对》是阿信在趁其他队员在换装时所独唱的一首歌,超好听!之后他也有用吉他自弹自唱了一首歌,可是现在我太累了,想不起来,不好意思!他还说:“他们终于去换衣服了,我等他们离开等很久了。趁他们在换衣服的时候,我要来唱这首歌……”
在教我们做一些动作的时候,阿信又说:“今晚我要把你們的精力搾到乾乾,我才讓你們回家。”
可是,好像是他们先累耶。
阿信后来又说:“惨了,我看很难让你们用完体力,我看我们一整晚都会在这里,你们不用回家了……”

在感谢赞助商的时候,英文不太流利的它们似乎碰到了难题。五月天一边感谢赞助商,一边奏乐打鼓要我们尖叫,已表示对赞助商的感谢,可是开始大家的反应不太热烈,阿信说:“你们这样我们明年也许来不了了……”
到了念一些英文名字的时候,阿信把纸条递给玛莎,玛莎看了一眼,便把纸条交回给阿信,而阿信只好请石头帮忙念。只见石头用高调的声音念了一堆话,阿信就说:“还是把声音调高一点会比较好哦?”后来他们还是认真地念了一遍,原来他们是要讲"crocodile" & "unusual productions"的名字…… (-_-|||)

零零碎碎地就记得那么多,写得太细也会变得沉闷。我想我写得已经够详细也够沉闷了。哈哈!还是到此为止吧! :P



在演唱会之前和凯琳在Bugis的Billy Bombers 吃的双人海鲜拼盘!不错哦!



离开了地球表面,high 到爽了,是时候回到地球表面继续面对现实,冲刺咯!加油!
