Update on my recess break…

Its the last day of the recess break.

And my to-do list isn’t even half-done yet!!! Die lahhhh

Lemme see…

Monday was spent trying to do the silly design report.

Tues was Pro Comm meeting plus an afternoon wasted at school cos I was kay-pohing around. Haha… Caught up with my ex Prof and had a nice chat with him.

Wed was dedicated to my HRM project. Glad we settle out quite a few stuff. And my idea was ‘chosen’ to be the BOS! haha… Don’t ask me what it is k? Wait till we’ve completed presenting.

Thursday was spent doing a bit of readings… and a major retail therapy with the mother cos Isetan had a private sale! Bought 2 pretty tops plus a dress.

And yes, today is Friday. Gotta do a major catching up on studying…

K then, before I run along… gotta post this:

The bestie sent me a surprise!

And it contained my favs: F21 vouchers and a Mani session! Woo Hoo!

Thanks sweetie! You really made my day!

Lets have a get-together soon… over some nice ice-blend/frap? Miss ya!

 

BBQ! And some self thoughts…

As promised. A picture of all the attendees of the BBQ. Sorry it is a little blurry… the bro had shaky hands lah!

Didn’t include Desmond, his wifey and his 2 really cute kids though, cos they left early as the kiddos were cranky!

Food was fantastic! All the preparations and marinating was worth it!

At least everyone everyone enjoyed the food!

I learnt several lessons though:

1. Don’t stinge on cheap sausages, they taste terrible! The Fairprice brand ones were 20 cents cheaper, so we thought we’ll just give it a try. Luckily we only bought 1 pack and 2 packs of the nicer sausages. haha…
2. Those cheapo crabsticks are really nonsense. They fall apart even before cooking!
3. When you’re having fun, and start blabbering away, you’ll tend to talk nonsense, as in my case. And no, it wasn’t the vodka lah! I’m sure about that!
4. When you add in fresh charcoal into the grill and the flames are huge, take the opportunity to cook all your squids, stingrays… those wrapped up in foil… cos the flame is great for cooking them! hehe…

But overall, it was a fantastic night! We should do it again!!!

Kenna 放我飞船…

Don’t think I can make the trip to BKK anymore…

Unless there is someone else who wanna go with me?

—

Need to buck up. Losing all my motivation. But then again, I don’t seem to have any of it since I started school.

There is this small voice nagging, but somehow, it isn’t loud enough to make me move my butt any faster.

It sucks.

Come back to me… wherever you are.

I desperately need to push now, time is running out.

Get up Rachel!

 

Bee sting… Argh!

While out for lunch just now, I got stung by a bee.

Ouch!

But interestingly, I was calm after being stung and just asked my friend to pull out the stinger.

And because of my fast reaction, the part where I got stung at is just red and a little itchy, and it is just a localised reaction so far.

Maybe if I start breaking out hives and start having breathing problems, then I’m in trouble. But yes, I still feel fine.

Then again, I think I’m feeling light headed.

Heh. From lunch lah!!! haha…

Gotta do some stuff now…

Will blog again about something funny later!

Laters!

 

Blogging from a Tablet…

This blogpost was entirely written by hand… Hana… my dad get this new tablet and we have so much fun using it.

And so, I decided to give it ago here!

My brother and I had quite alot fun using it on msn. Cos I could draw pictures using the handwriting function. And I drew so much nonsense that my brother told me to “go spam Someone else”. Haha! He is So funny at times…

Work today was great. I was busy running around getting things settled, designing some stuff, liasing with my other colleagues.Time seemed to fly when you’re busy. I like being busy at work. At least i’m occupied. And yeap it makes me feel more “useful” and less of a slacker. Haha…

Sometimes, I hope that I can return to this company When I graduate, it is really a great environment here. People here are really nice too.What more, it’s near home too! Haha… But I guess…it’s still too early to tell. I still have one more year at School. And so, one more year to consider!

Spoke to Ning today, she’s so curious as to what I bought! Yeap she’s referring to my “tai-tai” buys! Eh… and so… I bought this…

Hehe! And like I mentioned… it’s pink! I like the white version much much more, but since this version is rather sweet and this is limited to the season, I decided to take this version. Anyway, this pink looks different from the real life version, I guess the screen’s colour saturation depends on your own screen…

Eh… I have to post the picture of the bag but haha… they don’t have the design of my bag online… and so, I’ll post a picture of it some time later then… hehe…

Ok… I’m really tired… all the running around in office today really wear me out! Will blog again soon… Nites!

 

Feeling tai-tai-ish!

In a span of the weekend, I spent enough to qualify as a mini tai-tai. Haha…

V saw my buys but I dare not even tell him how much I got them for. Haha… But let’s just say that I made some good investments and I’m getting the returns now. Nowadays, its pretty silly to put your money in the bank cos the interest collected is pathetic. And so, get your money to work for you!

I’m glad that I saved when I was younger, so I can take this money now and use it to invest. But then again, when I was in my JC days, I didn’t really save much. Otherwise, now I’d have more money to ‘play’ with!

But yes, I’m loving my new bag and wallet. Woo Hoo! Haha.. its like a mini reward(for exams’ results) and an early birthday gift for myself. Shoik!

—
Work seems very quiet today. And my walks to the pantry seem boring now, cos my friends are not working here anymore. I’ll normally stop by Andy’s table and ka chiao him a little before heading to get a drink. Then on my way back, I’ll stop to chit chat for another 2 mins before heading back to my desk.

Oh yes, talking about Andy, he was so nice on Friday… Gave me a block of my favourite Ritter Sport Cornflakes chocs. At least he remembered me…ahem… unlike someone else—(points to Gavin) who strolled over to my desk with a whole bag of goodies and said: “nice hor?” but didn’t offer anything!). Haha… no hard feelings ya? But ya loh, how can you forget your fellow NTU buddies!

—
Argh. Just got back from lunch. I made sure I ate as little rice as possible, but I’m feeling sleepy already!!!! Help!

Sian… Gotta get back to work now…

Might post a picture of my buys if I’m still in a mood to post it… haha…

Tata for now…

 

 

3-posts-in-1…

I have been writing small little blog posts everyday, but somehow, I never seem to publish them.

Okok… I was lazy. I have the internet the whole day, but then again, I write my post while writing my reports… so… sometimes, I’m so lazy to transfer everything online.

Frankly, I don’t know if anyone actually reads this anymore. So…since lesser pple read, so, don’t write so much lah. haha… Well.. here are some posts I wrote during the past few days:

Wed 6th Jun:
I had a scary dream last night. It was almost on the verge of a nightmare!

In my dream, I entered this hair salon that I have been wanting to visit for a long time, because I wanted to trim my hair. But when I sat down, I fell asleep!

And the hairdresser actually cut my hair without consulting me! What resulted was a mushroom-shaped hair cut, which was awful!

I was extremely upset and angry with the hairdresser. What ensued was a shouting match between the hairdresser and me. I won the match but was extremely distraught with the whole situation.

And suddenly, I woke up. You’ll never know how relieved I felt! I didn’t look like a mushroom anymore.

But I must say that, sleeping within a dream can result in a very deep sleep. It felt super shoik when I ‘woke up’ from my sleep. Haha… and hence I declare: Sleeping in my sleep = very deep sleep!

I’m always spoiled at work! With so many little gifts from my colleagues! Ahhh! Like that, can get fat leh!

—
Thurs 7th Jun:
I did the craziest thing this morning. Thinking back, I still get the shivers and hope my mum didn’t hear anything. Hahaha… Shall not elaborate anymore because its super duper embarrassing lah!

I actually ‘acted’ busy for the whole week. So tsk tsk right? But seriously, what can I do when all 3 sups are not around. They are so busy! I really hope next week would be much more productive. No doubt there is something for me to learn now, but doing it everyday is certainly draining and outright boring. Results are due to be out tmr! Ahh! I really hope I can clear everything. I wanna be able to move to year 4 on a clean slate.

I finally got a new purse/wallet to replace my old yellow one. Guess what colour I got it in? Pink! Gosh! So girly lah! But due to a misunderstanding, I can only get it on Sat…   Can’t wait to see my new darling!!!

—

And finally… my proper blog post for today: 8th Jun Fri.

My table in office is like a mini snack bar.

I have Loacker Wafers, Carrot Juice, Mango jelly, Jacob Craks, chewing gum, Ritter Sport Chocolates, Wheat Crackers, Seaweed Biscuit, Strawberry wafers, Japanese cookies, assorted sweets, green tea bags, Korean tea bags…

Wah lao. Really macham like snack bar lah. And my colleagues and clients are always giving me little chocolates, biscuits, fruits… I’m so well taken care of here!

It’s my IA friends last day today and we went out for a nice meal. Came back almost an hour late! Hahaha… But hey, it’s a once in a blue moon that we actually do something like that! The company was great. I admit that I’ll really miss these pple when they’re not here from next week. A couple of them taught me all I needed to know about the company and how to ’survive’ while working here… haha… It was really nice of them to take such good care of me when I first joined the company!

Will really miss their jokes, nonsense and laughter.

(PS: Esther is a perm staff at my company… but yes, we’d always include her in our gang outings cos we get along so well together… heh!)

I had another farewell lunch for all the NTU students at our company canteen yesterday… Will bug Gavin to pass me the photos and I’ll post them up soon! hehe…

—

Oh yes! I received a call at about 1240am yesterday and was told by Mark that the results were out! I was fast asleep and he woke me up… Haha.. I thought the phone was ringing in my dream, only to realise that it was my real hp ringing!

I couldn’t log onto the NTU network and was panicking for at least 15 mins. But I found another way to access the website and finally sigh a huge relief when I saw my grades appear on the screen.

I passed all my subjects! Even the dreaded electronics! Muahaha!

Frankly, my grades weren’t fantastic. I only did well in my electives…(even got an A lah!), but I was disappointed in my other 2 core subjects.

Oh well… gotta look ahead and do well for year 4 now! Rachel Jia you!

Blogging can be draggy man. I’m tired. Gonna take a nice warm bath and jump into bed!

Night night world!

 

Freedom!!!! then get tied down again…

I’m starting work on Monday next week!

Wow!

Thats super fast lah.

I just got the email that the company approved of me starting a week earlier.

And so, I have 3 days to do whatever I wanna do…

I wanna bake, I need to shop(for office wear!!!), I wanna make a couple of jewellery pieces, I wanna read my novels, I need to clear the mess up in my room…

It is rather fast… As much as I wanna slack around a while longer, I wanna start work and start learning something new. Contradicting but true…

And guess what? I can drive the car to work when Daddy’s not around! Muahaha….

So exciting!

A list of to-dos… hopefully I can achieve most of them by Sunday…

1. Shop for office wear(going to do it later in the afternoon)
2. Clear mess left from crazy studying
3. Bake! At least one item….
4. Start up jewellery business again
5. Clean room

It was last paper yesterday…

Before the paper started, I was already looking forward to the end of the paper… haha…

20 mins before the papee ended, I was already thinking: Yes! 20 mins to freedom!!!!

And so, I ‘celebrated’ yesterday’s freedom with a new pair of Nikes. My old Adidas has been with me since JC days and the sole fell out already! And so, armed with a 100 dollar voucher, I bought a nice pink bouncy running shoes. I liked how comfortable and bouncy it feels when ever I land… Its inportant to have shoes that provide good shock absorption for running… And I’m glad I found it in this pair.

And because we spent more than 120 dollars at Nike… Mom and I got free chocs from Sins and a mini photoshoot! Haha… Both our first time doing photoshoots! Mom was so stiff…haha… And we had our fave pic printed on a mug… very cute.

—-

Yesterday was the 3rd…

And it was the bestie’s 22nd bday!

Too bad she had a paper in the evening…

And so, we’re celebrating it this Sunday instead! Weee!

BLESSED 22nd KAI!!!

Love ya lots! *muacks*

 

Smile! :)

Took this before I slept yesterday… while waiting for my hair to dry…

Gosh. My hair is pretty long already! And as much as I like having long hair(especially since I grew up with short hair cos Daddy refused to let me keep my hair!), it can get rather warm and troublesome…

But I’ll continue keeping it because I think I look so much better with long hair!

I just discovered the sepia/black n white/solarised function on my phone’s cam! Haha…

Ok… I’m slow… But hey, better late than never…

I love how the sepia mode turned out for this picture. Makes me seem to have perfect skin and somehow ‘glamourises’ the picture even though I was in my old JJC tee which I use as my PJs… hehe… (yes… I purposely took the picture with 1/4 of my face cut off… it has an arty and interesting effect mah!)

Woke up uber early this morning because I was the ah-mat(driver) for my grandparents and mum… Brought them to market for their weekly shopping…

Came back, washed the car since daddy is returning tmr(dun want him to nag that I use the car and dun take care of the car), took a nice shower and zonked out for more than an hour!

And so…

Back to studying le!

Tata!

 

Ambitions

I had to complete a mindmap about myself recently. About myself, my education, my interests, achievements and ambitions.

Ambitions?

What do I want to do with my life?

What do I want to work as?

What exactly do I want?

Good questions man.

I had 2 lines under ambitions- To start a business, To be successful.

Wah lao. So bloody cliche lah. I’m so appalled at my answers!

I thought about it after submitting my homework.

What do I really want to do?

1. I really want to start a business. I even have plans for one of them. Just need to rope in pple who would really want to have a share in it. Of course I won’t talk about it here(unless I want pple to steal my idea!). I’m young, have the energy to go out and start on a clean slate. I guess its all about finding the right industry/item and give it a go.

2. I have dreams of being(don’t laugh ah!!!!)…………………an air stewardess.
I have the height but haha, die lah, super flabby(I just calculated, my BMI is in the normal range lah. I’m not obese. I’m just extremely flabby! Gawwwww…. ). Just lose the weight then can lah. Travelling around the world, being a ‘high-class’ waitress. Quite fun mah!
But it isn’t exactly a real job and finding another job after my flying years won’t be as easy. And I’m sure V would just bawk at the idea. Cos I mentioned it before and you should have seen his face. haha… he says that I’ll be away for long periods and he ain’t that happy about that fact.

3. I want to continue my studies. Do an MBA. Somewhere in US or Aussie. Somewhere NOT in Singapore. No doubt I’m super super sick of studying, but I wouldn’t mind trying for an MBA.

4. I wanna be a banker(and earn lots and lots of $$$$$$) I wanna have a job that deals with marketing, meeting people, cutting deals but not making sales. haha… contradicting huh?

5. I want start a little cafe selling cakes and drinks and doing really cool coffee art.

Ironically, I do not have dreams of being a tai tai. Maybe not yet i guess. I feel that I have not achieve anything significant enough to sit at home and enjoy my life.

So… what do I really want?

I don’t know yet. I guess it will take sometime. But for now. I shall concentrate at what’s on hand and do my best in it.

———

I wanna watch Music and Lyrics leh… But I got no one to watch it with. boo hooooo hooooo….

———

I’ve got a new bed. Though its not brand new, but the previous owner never used it! Super ex lah. Queen size somemore! But eh, I’m still not used to it leh. Not hard enough(because my previous bed was like super hard lah!) Gotta get use to it lah. But I must admit. Its very comfy. Feel like a queen when lying on it. hehe…

Somemore, its a gift from someone. Super blessed lah.

——–

Need to improve on discipline.

Heading off to study now. =)

 

thinking of her, you and being discipline

Discipline discipline…

I know I’m seriously lacking in it. Gosh. Its really scary. I think I should really kick myself in my big fat butt and start being serious about my work.

To my dear jewellery blog customers(who read my blog), I’ll take a short break k? I need to concentrate on my sch work for now. I will have a big big sale when I’m ready and on track with work again.

——-

Interestingly, I’ve been having tons on my mind recently. Some, not too appropriate to talk about, while some are just daydreams. haha… I’ve been getting really good at day dreaming recently… need to wake up to reality! haha…

——-

Had project group meeting with my gang from creative prob solving class. This bunch of pals are fantastic. haha… we even have names for all of us. KimJiSan, sleepy horny girl(not me lah!), boh liao king, mr ‘nice’ and me. ok. I don’t exactly have a nick name yet. eh, thats gd rite? haha…

On a major proj now… I hope we pull it off!

——

Been thinking of JiaLin(Jaclyn) recently. I don’t know why. Maybe because I’ve been ‘hanging’ out with Shiqi and she is the same age as Jac. Jac would be in uni now, year 1 infact. We could have been roomies! I feel as if I’m missing out from doing all the fun sisterly stuff together with her. Imagine all the shopping session, sharing sessions, fighting sessions and more. It would be nice to have a younger sis around. I miss you Jac. *shed a tear*

——

Gotta get back to my tuts. Recess week is just crap. Next week is quiz week! Ahhhhh!

 

I realised…

Its funny how I always say I don’t wanna do something again but yet, I end up being soft-hearted and giving in yet again.

So silly. Argh.

I keep saying I don’t wanna work. Then I end up going back. And when I working, I realised why I said I didn’t want to work if I were given a choice again.

Then again, maybe I got ‘greedy’ for the $$. Like what my friend said to me: Rachel, you don’t need the money lah. Your pocket money is more than enough. Why in the world do you want to work?

It is true. I don’t need the $, but I guess, with that extra moolah, I can buy something for someone else, or to spoil myself a lil’ more. Argh. But all the time ‘wasted’ on work could be utilised on tutorials! And so, I promise, NO more work till after exams.

——————

I need to exercise exercise exercise!!! Need to lose weight!!! Getting fat fat fat….

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh……… It’s really a girl’s worst nightmare lah.

——————

Made a discovery recently and I’m kinda amazed at the revelation. I’m pleased that I could have such an effect. I wish him well though.

——————

Gonna make full use of my recess week next week! I promise!

 

Baking baking baking… My oven is working overtime! hahaha…

Argh!

I haven blogged in such a longgg time! Bad bad bad!!!

Okok.. I’ve been busy.

Monday was Kueh Bangkit Baking day. Failed miserably…

But I’m not gonna give up yet. I wanna make the best tasting Kueh Bangkit for V. Just because he likes it. Ain’t I nice? I don’t have much high hopes, but I’m hoping for a miracle when I give it a try again.

Tuesday was a longggg day and the day that I collected my baby hp back from the handphone-hospital. baby hp has a brand new speaker and a brand new joystick! Weee!

Wednesday was pontang-PElective-to-do-baking day. I made a grand total of 3 things on Wednesday. Chinese Peanut Cookies(recipe will be posted on thelazychef soon) for dear Daddy, Cranberry and Blueberry Oat Cookies(recipe will be on thelazychef soon too) for my darling friends in school and vanilla cupcakes for the girls from CS.

And the highlight of today was an interview with the CS girls! Have pictures! Will post and talk about it when I get down to uploading the pics. Heh.

For now, I gotta zzzz…. An early morning tmr! Blehhhh….

Good nite world!

 

Bake bake baking fun!

Hello all…

Actually, I’ve been blogging this past few days, just that, I’ve been saving them as drafts and not publishing them.. haha… I guess I didn’t see the need to publish them.

Anyway, I’m like super super tired now.

I bake almost 600 cookies today.

And its just pineapple tarts and cornflakes cookies.

I still have peanut cookies and a second batch of pineapple tarts next weekend.

And not forgetting my KB! Wow…

This year’s CNY is crazy crazy baking!

Its tiring but oh-so-fulfilling… I like.

How i wish i had that much enthusiaum on school work… haha…

I’ll update with pics soon…

Need to rest soon.

Good nite world!

 

Mid week and its been nothing but exciting!

My 400th Post! Woo Hoo!

First of all. Sorry for skipping a blog post yesterday. Was kinda busy sorting out some stuff…

And well, its only mid-week and I’ve been bombarded with lots of unique requests and have encountered some rather odd(in a happy way, and some in a terrible way) events.

First of all… my baby phone goes all cranky on me. And I really don’t know what went wrong. When ever someone calls, the fellow can hear me, but I can’t hear the person! Really irritating. So, I’m gonna get it fixed tmr afternoon. Bleh.

I got a dress for CNY. Super super retro looking. Like I just arrive from the 1970s. Haha… Real cute. And I was telling Peiwen, if I don’t take the courage to wear this now, I’ll get laughed at when I grow older and start wearing this type of dresses. So, why not try a retro look? Look out Kai! I’m gonna ‘try’ and be more retro than you! muahaha…. (but then, sure lose you lah. you look better in retro than me… haha…)

And yes, some other things too… but shall not mention them here. Ha. Well, at least not for the time being.
—-

2 days ago, I was just thinking of Martha Stewart. She has the kind of job that I wanna do in the future! She has her own TV show, where she shows others how to bake/cook and teach them cool and nifty craft work.

We don’t have a TV show in Singapore that does this! The cooking shows that we have are all not that interesting. Not hip enough. No ‘cool’ enough. We need young blood to show the younger ones that cooking/baking is not an ‘auntie’ thing. Its fun, its interesting and we can learn so much from being in the kitchen! Be it learning to cook a simple meal to survive or to learn to bake cookies/muffins to impress a girl/boy. And not forgetting, all the cool craft work or interesting things to make!

Haha… and yes, just as I dream about it, I received a very interesting email with an interesting proposal to me. I might just get to play ‘Martha’ soon *grin*. In a similar way*grin*. But not on national TV. I’ll update with it if it goes well. *grin*
(yes yes, I know, you wanna slap me. I shall wipe that grin off my silly face… hahhaa)

—-

Woo hoo! I’m gonna learn to bake Kueh Bangkit! Yummy melt-in-the-mouth Kueh Bangkit! I hope V is happy! I know he loves it. Can’t wait for next week! My oven is gonna have to start learning to work OT! Heh…

—-

Okay. Need to get rest. Really tired. Good nite world!

 

Of yoga, books and baking. Sheesh…

I wanna start Yoga or maybe Pilates. Actually, I don’t mind signing up at some fitness centre and go for sessions for maybe 2 times a week? I need to start looking for trial lessons. (Heh… got this idea from Faith!)

Bought yet another novel today. And the genre is totally different from my staple. I don’t know what got into me and made me buy it. Haha.. I think the fact is that it had a 20% discount as compared to the book that I had originally wanted. And though the storyline is interesting, it is not an easy book to read. Not easy to read at all. Need to think and analyse while reading. Its a bit of a challenge but I’m enjoying it so far… But I can’t stand all the vulgar language in it though. Bleh. But nonetheless, its been ages since I last read a memoir.

I can’t wait to start baking for CNY!!! Hehe!! I got some stuff today! In preparation for my pineapple tart baking! Haha… I received an email recently, asking if I sell my pineapple tarts. And well, I have not replied yet. Well, I’m not sure if I have the time to bake them to sell. Because I’m worried that if the person orders alot, I’d have a hard time keeping up with the orders. But Mummy is getting enterprising… she immediately said: “Can… just tell her a bottle of 20 would be $10, or if she buys 50 pieces, it’ll be $20.”

Haha… she’s confident of making them, but I’m not. hahaha… will see how lah. If after my first batch, I’m fine with making more, then I’ll start selling. Any one wanna buy? hahaha…

Ok. Today’s post will be a short one. I need to slp early.

Good nite all!

 

Yet another day.

China doll eyes. Heh. Thank goodness this time round, it was literally painless and almost tear-free! Don’t know what I’m talking about? Come look for me.

My legs are like jelly now. The exercise machine is finally being used for its real purpose after 4 years of being a clothes hanger. And its super squeeky. But it hasn’t fallen apart yet. So, yes, I’m gonna try my best to do some routines everyday.

I should stop being such a procrastinator. It is stopping me from achieving greater things in life. Bleh. It is probably the greatest stumbling block in my life now. Horrible man.

Anyway, this sem’s timetable is like the best. Firstly, no Monday blues. Then the days get shorter as the week passes. Woo Hoo… Tues are the longest(0930 till 1730), Weds are next(0830 till 1630), then comes Thurs(1030 till 1530) and last but not least(0830 till 1230). Shoik leh!

—–

CNY is coming soon. What are you gonna wear? I’m terrible. I think this year is gonna be another last minute outfit again. Why? Because though I bought lovely dresses recently, they are all black and white. So terribly inauspicious. Not that I mind wearing them, but I don’t want to be disrespectful to the elders. Tsk tsk tsk.

And yes, I want CURLS! But somehow, perming is super ex! I can’t imagine spending that kind of money on hair. Not until I earn more(through work etc) or start working. Somehow, the thought of putting a couple of hundred(okay, maybe 200) bucks on my hair is so totally not worth it. (Yes, I’m a miser.)

——

The brother is going through puppy love now. Gosh. And of all girls. It has to be her. The funny thing? He’s not the only one who’s crazy over her. I see competition coming up. What fun. May the best man boy win.

——

I need to start serious work on my EEE cores. They are really tough. *sob sob*

Toodles for now then.
i’m seriously lost. the more you reject, the more painful it’ll get. and it’s getting tougher and tougher to change the subj now. Dear God, please open his heart, to see your Love and help him understand why its impt for us to love you together. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

 

Spelling backwards fun!?!

Call me slow but whatever…

I just realised that when you spell FAT backwards, you get TAF.

Now I know why all the chubby kids in my days were made to join TAF club in Primary school!

Gosh. But doesn’t it sound kinda demeaning? (Or is there another reason why they call it TAF club?)
*edit* Okay. And so, Anna reminded me that its Trim and Fit club. But I still wanna com-prain about it. Why must the acronym be TAF? Why can’t it be something like Keep Fit Club(KFC! probably not a very good idea…) or Healthy Kids Club or Lean And Fit Club or Fit and Healthy Club or anything else but TAF? */edit*

Poor kids.

And I only realised this when I was figuring what to put on my MSN nick because someone said the dreadful F word to me today. Bleh. I’m gonna starve myself from now on.

 

What Monday blues?

Dear Diary…

Today was such a slack-one-corner day. haha…

While everyone else is complaining about Monday blues, I’m going “What Monday Blues?” hehehe… I is evil. Hah!

Went to the bank in the afternoon, attempted my tutorial, joined a spree and bought a top from Wet Seal(weeee!), blog-hopped around and made a necklace today. I enjoyed my day. Heh.

And now, its time for me to sleep!

Good nite world!

 

I hope to blog more often!

I’ve decided that I should write my thoughts down more often. Been totally neglecting this space.

Its kinda nice to read back on old posts and laugh at those good ol’ times I had. Then I realised that I don’t write down my thoughts and the happenings of my life anymore! What happen to my online diary?

And so, I will try my best to say something everyday(or once every two days). Even if its just 1 or 2 lines. And even if its just ” Hello world, today was a totally uneventful day. But I made it through… Amen!”

Haha…

I guess cos I quite enjoy reading other’s people’s blogs and their daily happenings. Their interesting or super boring thoughts/events/happenings/lunches/dinners/etc etc etc…And then I look at my own blog. Shees… So boring! So pale in comparison. So bleah-ish.

Actually, many interesting things happen in my life everyday. Well, at least its interesting to me.

Like last week, I started my Creative Problem Solving class and am totally lovin’ it(Pala pah pah pah! I’m lovin’ it! hahaha… geddit geddit???). I meet really fun-lovin’ lecturers and fellow tutorial mates in the class… And we do really fun stuff. haha… like: “wow! your armpit hair looks cool too! Did you perm it?”, “Hi! I’m Park Ji Por and I’m a Korean exchange student!”, “Hi. I’m from NIE, studying about mental sports.” etc etc… I know I know, it all sounds odd but I guess you won’t understand it unless you’re in my class.

Then I made a new friend. A Hong Kong Exchange student. It was kinda funny when I first met him.

I was sitting in tutorial class waiting for the tutor to start tutorial… Then suddenly, this guy taps me on my arm.(from now on, my speech would be in pink, while everyone else would be either blue, green or yellow…)

“Eh… Do we need to do tutorial?”

Me(thinking to myself): Hello? we’re in freakin’ 3rd year. and what more? this is sem 2 of the year… not even sem 1!!! You ask me if we need to do tutorial? You from some year 1 class and you’re lost or from some planet?

“Erm, yes, of course we need to do our tutorial. Then if we have any questions, then we can ask the tutor to explain.*smile sweetly*

“Oh. Okay. Thanks. I didn’t do my tutorial! Didn’t know I need to do it!”

(Thinking to myself) ” This guy is weird.

Haha… after class, this took place:

“Eh, will the teacher take our attendance?”

“No. But it really depends. Sometimes, some tutors take attendance, some tutors don’t”

After exchanging a few more lines from him, I realised that he is an exchange student! hahaha…

I guess he looks like any ordinary student cos he’s chinese.

And yes, for the record, his name is Jack and I had a ‘fun’ time explaining to him what teh-o and kopi-o over lunch the next time I saw him.

Dinner on Fri with V was super ex. haha… I didn’t expect Seoul Garden to be that ex on a weekday dinner. But then again, it was a Friday evening. Blah. I’m the worst person to bring for buffets. Buffet restaurants love customers like me. Blehhhh….

Dinner on Sat was fantastic too. But then, buffet ala carte again! At Hanabi Japanese Restaurant at Odeon Towers. Food was fantastic. Esp the Sashimi and Soba Saba fish. It was V’s dad’s bday dinner so V’s sis suggested that we try this place. Quite a nice place I must say… And we might try that place again when it’s my mummy’s bday since she’s such a jap food fan.

I’ve been telling V that the fact that I only see him during the weekends now, it feels as if he’s in army. A bf-who’s-still-in-army, just that he has a full head of messy long hair and I get to chat with him every night on MSN, play an occasion round of solitaire/quarto/or what ever we feel like playing over MSN.

Haha… Oh well…

K then. I’ve written tons today.

Toodles…

 

Happy 2007 to all!

Its been a longgg time since I last posted.

Been either busy or far too slack to do anything. hee….

Anyway, I had a rather good New year’s eve(though I have lots of reflections about it, will probably talk about it in another post) at my dad’s friend’s place.

And we went to the beach at 12 midnight to hear the ships sound their horns and shoot their flares into the sky. Quite an interesting sight. I hope you had fun!

1st was spent at home with the family.

On the 2nd, we met up with my dad’s colleague from Japan and we went with his family to Grand Shanghai restaurant at King’s Centre… Indeed, entering the restaurant, it seems as if you’re transported back in time to the 1960s to 1970s era. The dim lightings, the settings, a 3 piece band with a live singer. It was like watching one of those HK dramas set in Shanghai!

The atmosphere was fantastic. And I’m sure the Japanese friend that we had, was impressed by it. The food, was equally fantastic. The presentation of the food was good, and their dishes were very well prepared. From the cold dish, to the smoked duck wrapped in crepe skin, to the very tasty shark fin soup, huge tangy prawns, crispy fried fish, scallops with egg white, and an interesting pork belly noodle ’sandwich’(they deep fried flatten sheets of egg noodles and sandwiched this between 2 huge pieces of pork belly and drizzled thick dark sauce over the whole thing… Mmmmm!) and last but not least, a very unique desert- tang yuan in gui hua soup. The floral scent of the gui hua was very pleasant and it was a light and refreshing.

Hope to return for dinner there one of these days! They have xiao long bao! hehe… So yes, its a must try, though I must say, the food there is pricey! But I guess, for special occasions, it is a good place to head to!

And yesterday, I had subj registration… Managed to get everything. Phew. Just hope that I can get my GEs as well…

And yesterday, I also went out with my JC classmate, Peiwen! Haha.. it was good catching up with her. Miss those gd ole days in JC… haha…:)

Today is my didi’s bday! haha… another day of good food! will update with pics(hope to take some tonight!)

Till then, I’ve gotta clean my room! Chao!
