My my..how time really speeds up for today. There were a few people showing up for work in my department cos the rest have taken leave. Smart right...they have a long week of holidays- friday, saturday, sunday, monday and tuesday.

In the morning, i had done all my work so my mentor had to ask the supervisor. My 'work friend' is nearly done with her work too. So we got new stuff to be shared among the 2 of us and an aunt. We splitted up the work between her and me. We are productive everyday...hehez. My table are mostly occupied with stacks of paper. Each day, lesser space for me to work. I can't wait to clear my desk but have to wait for instructions.

During lunch time, as usual, only my friend and I went down to buy food and i will buy something for my 'work friend'. Nowadays, she is lazy to go downstairs with us so i have to do the buying for her. When we reached the food centre, aiya, we forgotten that today is spring cleaning and the food centre will be closed. The two of us walked very far away to get food, not only that, i didn't want my 'work friend' to be starving without buying her favourite food. So we walked to the next food centre which is a few streets away. But we couldn't find it...and we spent half an hour of our lunch time wandering around and buying food. Left only half an hour to watch videos. Sigh..watch halfway loh but still got wednesday onwards to watch. Both of us laughed so hard at the videos.

After lunch, the supervisor asked anyone who fancy a walk. My 'work friend' agreed..then my supervisor asked me to help out with the counter. Since it was the last day of the the month, there was a long queue at the counter, the queue even extended to the lifts. The queue didn't seem to shorten at all. I was standing there for a few hours..they kept on asking me whether i need a chair. haha i think the people in my department are very nice...but it is okay, i dun mind standing. ^_^ The people who came for the queue liked to ask me questions but i don't even know what to answer. (-_-)" do i look like i know a lot of things there? haha they should just ask the cashiers.

I guessed my friend came back after a short while because the supervisor she went with came to the counter. They went to a nearby bank. The rule is that if the employee has a certain amount of money to bring to the bank, the person needs someone to escort him to the bank. But too bad, another colleague went to reservice so my friend became the escort of the month. haha at least today was exciting mah..a new change of environment. My friend even came in once to tell me that we still have half an hour left of work. Finally they told me that i can leave the counter because i am knocking off soon. One of the mentors there said that if get to work at the counter, can earn extra money. But the thing is the person has to be a permanent staff there. Make me happy for nothing..haha

My friend has to rush off to meet her cousin cos tomorrow will be the cousin's engagement day. I went off to meet my friend at chinatown mrt station to return her stuff. haha i was too tired, so nearly dozed off while waiting for her to appear.

I was on my way home already. Then i saw someone that looked like my cousin boarding the same train as me. I spent the time thinking whether he was my cousin..haha. He was standing at the door and he didn't turn around. After a while, he did turn around and so i waved to him. At least, he showed signs of recognition. He asked me where am i going..so i said i am going home loh. Then he got really puzzled. No wonder loh..he boarded the wrong train. Maybe he is too tired..haha

Yea, tomorrow is Labour Day. Don't need to go for work. I think our supervisor forgot about the holiday..she said...see u tml...haha. If only, every first day of the month is a holiday. haha...must celebrate the arrival of a new month. heez

Yesterday night, i was on the way to a bus stop. Was walking in the park and i was near a row of bushes. Then something from the bushes came out and scratched the inside of my left ear. Don't know what it was, it disappeared straight after that. I kept on looking around but there wasn't any insects. I didn't think much about it but when i reached home and the water touches my ears, it hurts. So now have a wound there...haha i dun think i want to know what it was.

I went to Jurong Point this morning. It was really crowded near the entrance of the place. Oooo...they were having video recording of a variety show with Mark. Yup, so i finally bought the dvds haha..i will go back to buy Se7en album next time. Then i saw the latest dbsk album that my friend mentioned-5 in the black. Feel like collecting dbsk album from now onwards..haha there are too many singers in the music market...it takes a lot of effort to be outstanding. Their skin is super flawless-don't know how they do it.

I spent my whole afternoon watching the shinhwa concert. Wah it is so so nice...haha...having my "mini concert" in my room. Was singing along with them. I will watch the other dvd next time. ^_^ will take my time ...

I got reminded of how bleak my future is again because of my friend's sms. It is really hard for an individual to be outstanding cos millions are not only outstanding, but even much more than that. Nothing is easy, not even one teeny weeny bit.

My friend has a great shopping spree today. I told her about the dvds that i discovered in MJ. So she bought 3 items loh- Lee Minwoo { M's girlfriend } 1st live concert (the one that i bought today), Jang Woo Hyuk live concert and DBSK latest album 5 in the black. The shinhwa live concert dvd, she already had it. Initially, i thought minwoo's concert dvd (special girlfriend edition) won't be selling in sg so i asked my friend who went to korea for holiday to buy for me. But she couldn't find it...never mind, i finally have it. Yippee!!

Is it possible to put own videos/non-youtube videos on blog?

Hiz...today is my first day of the second semester. Only 8 people in my class loh including me...feels a bit empty. The friend that I am closest to in class is not attending the semester. She only smsed me just a while before class starts. Then a few of my classmates were not continuing the course. Yah, so left 3 guys and 5 girls. Only got 1 new face loh-a guy. He looks like a pro. Then the 5 of us were guessing who will be the 2 other "special guests", continuing on. I miss my friend...sigh. Was planning to tell her something de but she won't be attending. 2 weeks ago was the last time that I saw her. Feels kinda down. Plus my eyes are so tired, took a lot of effort to open my eyes. The lesson is so difficult, i can barely manage it. I will work hard on my homework before the next lesson. (^_^)

Then after that, I went to Tampines to meet my friend. Surprisingly, we took the same train there but I didn't notice her till I was about to alight at Tampines mrt station. And there she was sitting down near me. She didn't notice me too. But that's good loh, cos we don't have to wait for each other. We were searching for the cinema. It was really long queue and the shopping centre was super crowded. Is there any special occasion today?? Then we have to wait for quite some time before we could purchase the tickets. Both of us went in after that and the person really gave us back seats-- the very last row on the right. (-_-)" Felt a bit extra cos most of the people were seated at the centre. But only 2 rows at the right side were occupied - me and my friend and a father and his son. The movie is so nice!!!!!! Great graphics. It is TMNT. haha used to be my favourite action heroes, my first craze. They are always so cool, especially the way they fight and keep their weapons. It feels a bit like the movie: The mummy because it has this legend and it was actually true. I think the plot is not bad.

After the movie ended, we were walking around. We saw 2 policemen with 2 young boys perhaps in their teens. I felt that there must be something wrong so i looked down and saw that they were handcuffed. Perhaps they were shoplifting bah. Sigh....We had dinner together and headed home after that. Too bad that she has to go somewhere else. I am really travelling from the extreme east to the extreme west loh. So many mrt stops - around 25!! I decided to go Jurong Point to look around.

Jurong Point was very crowded too especially a lot of foreign workers. Maybe this place is near Tuas and that's where they are working and perhaps staying there. It is difficult to walk, all the more, there is construction going on. In a few years time, a condominium will be built near it and Jurong Point will expand to be one of the largest shopping centres in Singapore. That's impressive! Was looking around for potential things to be added in my list. I was thinking about buying Se7en album as a potential music source for me. I went to look at most of the music stores. One of the stores...i happen to look towards the dvd side...and...i....saw....LEE MIN WOO LIVE CONCERT DVD!!!!!!!!! And Shinhwa Seoul 2004-2005 LIVE CONCERT DVD!!!!! Ahhhh....my happiness level suddenly shot up..haha. And the price is quite worth it....i nearly felt like shouting in the store...i have been searching for this for so long...i thought sg won't be selling it. My friend said that mostly dvds won't be able to get it in sg. And i must have them...cos i don't think i will have a chance to experience their real live concert.

I can skip home le...haha yea yea yea~

Oh man....i must buy it first thing when the store opens tomorrow. Just a few copies left. I didn't bring enough money, if not, i would have bought it straight away. This one dun need to ponder, just buy. haha..do you know how lee min woo is so cool, especially on stage?? He has a great personality, nice and gentle voice especially when he sings, sweet smile, nice dance movements, great breakdancing style and skills, humourous, cute, passionate, kind-hearted and the list goes on and on. Hmm..i can connect with him in a way bah, got similar stuff too. haha..every morning when he wakes up, he will do rapping or listening to raps. Me too..every morning, haha i listen to Shinhwa songs that have catchy raps in it but i only know how to say one korean rap -which is the song Young Gunz.. i love that song. haha i roughly follow what junjin raps loh and the singing part. Listening to catchy raps in the morning makes me alert. ^_^ Still got other common stuff but is personal haha... ^_^

I think i have no hope le ever since today my dance friend told me about something. Howwwww....what to do.....? i don't think i can make it le....

Ever wonder why my hotmail email address is so weird? haha can't tell is my email address right? Most people will get the wrong idea of how i think of such a name. But ya know, nowadays people in general have short attention span. I explained too much but people won't be listening. They expect to K.I.S.S (keep it short & sweet).

That email address was because of my favourite cartoon series- Rugrats (Nickelodeons).

The show revolves around four toddlers, Tommy Pickles, Chuckie Finster and the twins Phillip (Phil) and Lillian (Lil) DeVille, who are able to communicate to each other in baby speak (although viewers can understand them, because it is supposedly 'translated'). Often, they mispronounce words or use poor grammar. Despite the toddlers' inability and lack of desire to communicate with adults, they can understand their parents' speaking, although they often misunderstand what they hear, usually by taking metaphors literally and speaking in malapropisms. Angelica Pickles, at age three, is able to communicate and understand language from both the toddlers and the adults, which she often uses as an advantage when she wants to manipulate either party. The cartoon series is shown through a child's point of view.

My favourite toddlers are Tommy and Chuckie. Then i wanted to put girl as part of my email address. Tommygirl? nah doesn't seem nice to me. Tomgirl? nope. Chuckiegirl? nope. So i ended up with chuckgirl..cos it seems better compared to the rest that i thought of.

It is interesting to see things from different points of view, that's how we can understand how each individual feels. Though of cos I can't exactly feel it, but at least it gives me a better understanding of people's situation. I am especially curious about how a toddler views his/her surroundings. Does the world seem brighter to them? Full of cheerful colours? I feel that they tend to view/perhaps appreciate things that are obvious to people older than them. For eg: why is the sky blue? why is the sea blue? the shapes of the clouds? Perhaps we are too used to such that is always there and tend to take things for granted. When have we ever pause what we are doing and look at our surroundings and nature carefully? Ya know, life itself with nature is beautiful though simple. "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." Don't ever underestimate nature cos it has hidden powers not yet unleashed for the world to see. Perhaps it seems that we have been on this earth our lifetime that we fail to appreciate simple and little things compared to kids who has been here for only a few months, years?

Whatever I am saying in the previous paragraph, i don't know whether i am putting the message clearly. haha...if don't get it, tat's ok. take it that i am talking rubbish. haha i can't really explain how i exactly feel.

Oooo i decided to put up picture of DBSK- Dong Bang Shin Ki ( Gods rising from the East). Impressive name eh? From the left is Xiah Junsu, Micky Yoochun, You-know Jun ho, Hero and Max Changmin. The leader is the middle guy loh...Junho. ( I think my younger cousin looks a bit like Junho..haha) Most of them are born in 1986 and 1988. The youngest is Max Changmin, the last guy at the right. Watching their drama makes me admire them a lot for their talents and personalities. Very hard to let me choose who is my favourite person cos they all have their own outstanding qualities. But aha, i more towards the first 2 guys from the left. DBSK is going to be my 2nd group craze...haha. The present first group craze is of cos ...Shinhwa.haha aiiii....why so many good guys in korea de...haha

I was on my way to the mrt station when i realised i forgot to bring my jacket. Must be due to a lot of things on my mind. So i stood there thinking whether i can live without my jacket for today. But I don't want to become popsicle and called my mother to help me get it. I wasn't really late for work.

Was chatting to my mentor about school and her family. it was so nice talking to her. My mentor said that it is really hard for her to see whether i am at my desk. I can't increase the height of the chair. Haha i told her that i will put a large notice (I am here) on top of my computer to indicate so. haha of cos i won't do that.

It is now 12.16pm. I feel so cold and hungry at the same time. Can't wait for lunch time to come. Finally got something to eat and watch le. haha my friend agreed with me that one of the dbsk members has cute pyjamas. Don't know where got sell leh, i will ask my youngest cousin to wear it. heez... watching 'first love' drama this time.

Searching one whole pile for a few names is really tiring. Sigh..having backache now...must rush home and rest le. Been sorting files and papers after lunch. It is really a lot- a few stacks the height of a computer desk.

I have been working here for about a month le. How time flies. ^_^

My bro's exams is coming le. Have to help him with his revision and homework. Plus he is preparing for the stepping down ceremony. haha i still think of him as a little kid - my baby brother. ^_^

I was on the mrt and saw this foreign worker sleeping on the mrt. He had this umbrella with him (not the foldable kind, as in the big one) The thing is he placed it upside down, resulting in the sharp point pointed upwards. His head was drooping down nearer to the sharp point of the umbrella. The closest distance was around a few cms away. I really fear that he will injure his eye or his face. Someone standing in front of him woke him up and told him about the danger. But he didn't change..hmm..i don't think he understands what the man was telling him. He was too sleepy from the look of his eyes and maybe he doesn't understand the language. After a while, he still went back to his sleeping.

The cartoon series I want..can't be found in the shop. I will scout in other shops...

Morning!! Haha I thought i was going to be late for work cos of the heavy rain, the train was exceptionally crowded and the next train was delayed due to congestion. So i smsed my friend to tell her that i will be late. haha..but i arrived earlier than her and i wasn't really that late. That is a relief....

My friend and I were talking about malay marriage rituals cos i came across a malay marriage certificate about dowry and blah blah. haha so now i know more about it le. It sounds really complicated. For instance, she talked about both parties exchanging presents on that day. The guy will perhaps give the cheque (dowry) framed up nicely and give to the gal. Haha then i asked her whether has anyone used the gigantic cheque (the kind that people usually use for award ceremony for this. It will be a funny sight if someone uses that. My friend did a scenario which was funny. haha... imagine the guy holding the big cheque through the doorway into the girl's house.."excuse me ah...please make way for the cheque"

My friend was telling me about a ghost story that she heard on the radio. Oooo really creepy. Then we share our ghost stories loh..haha..it is okay to listen to such stories but it is definitely not okay to see or experience it.

My friend commented that we are all staying in an igloo ( referring to our workplace). Yea, I totally agree. The level that she works in is much colder than my level. Nobody talks at all and there are very little people staying at her level. Even whispering seems loud there. She didn't dare talk much just in case colleagues may tell her mentor all about it. She hasn't much work to do. The mentor even said that too. Sighh...she could have come to my department. At least, i am occupied with work most of the time. It is very safe to talk here too. Seems like we are working in totally different worlds...don't know if she can switch departments.

I am watching the same banjun drama again...haha so funny, my friend doesn't mind watching it again. but i wanna show her other banjun dramas as well - equally interesting. Their expressions on their faces are priceless. Dangerous love is really dangerous after all. Especially that intensity of looking at each other and those slow moments....comical sound effects and movements....haha...funny leh.

hiz...when i was on my way to the mrt station, i saw a destroyed advertisment stand. I think a car must have knocked it down the day before. Pieces of glass were everywhere and everyone had to step carefully near it. The metal frame was badly twisted.

During lunch, my friend and I were watching youtube. Banjun drama- dbsk dangerous love. haha it was very hilarous. Banjun drama (korean) means mini drama especially acted by idols and there are interesting twists and comical parts of the story. Can't help it but dbsk is too adorable le..haha.From today onwards, it will be our lunch entertainment. haha...sad to say, i found out that the videos of love letter shinhwa and happy together shinhwa variety shows are gone from my favourites list- every single episode. Sighhhh...don't know where it went to, it is my powerful source of laughter and happiness. (T_T)Unfortunately, anything online doesn't stay for very long..how i wish it does.

Feeling kinda sleepy..cos not much of work needs to be done. I have done most of the stuff so the mentor had to think of something for me to do. Almost all the people in my department are leaving for HQ to have a meeting or some sorts. So she asked me to do the work slowly..haha..i am doing it as slowly as i can le. But I don't think i will take so much time to sort out papers and files.

Aii..lots of temptations..

@You are my everything -Shinhwa @
"It's your eyes, it's your head, it's your heart, it's your love."

Recently changed all my songs in mp3 player to "everything Shinhwa". Previously, it was Korean songs by different singers, largely DBSK, Super Junior, Battle and others. (^_^) very soon, i may need to listen to new songs, have to buy cds le..maybe have to cut down on my food consumption.

I just started designing a house in Sims 2 so will be busy with it. haha..won't be going online often.

It is someone's last day at work here. Someone that i am not aware of plus don't bother about it but my friend has an eye on him ever since her first day of work here. That is ...hmm...*calculating in process*...only 5 days of work for her. Tai li hai le. and...i am being dragged in to pei her to ask for his contact number or something. going to dread it....

My friend gave me this question. Would I rather die of old age or die of sickness (as in been told how much time left)? Haha....is there another option - won't grow old and won't die?? Since there is no 3rd option, i will choose first option. Die of old age -then longer to live mah. haha Best is to have that "carpe diem" attitude. But we sometimes forget to do so cos we feel that we still have a long way to go in life. One day of lazing just won't hurt , out of so many days in our life. It seems so minor. Likewise, when we have our goals, we tend to get too caught up in our little world and fail to look at the big picture. What if time is really running out, and we are still not spending our time worthwhile?

Am i talking sense here?? haha i thought it through on my way to work but then i forgot the train of thought now.

Sunday- Happy Birthday to my friend!! haha I didn't do much on sunday, doing the usual routine. Every morning, it is my dance practice time. haha cos no one will be at home. My dance practice time will start anytime when no one is at home. ^_^ I missed Crayon Shin Chan cartoons so i was watching that during lunch. He is so funny haha, tempting to buy more of the cartoons. Hmm..see how it goes. Afternoon, reading harry potter book haha have to refresh my memory in preparation of the movie coming up soon in july, i think. The last book of harry potter series will be coming up later this year too. Hope there is a happy ending which is very unlikely. (-_-)" Then read until feel sleepy, so went to sleep. haha my bro found the missing disc!! he helped me install and i got to play sims 2 when i woke up. i played for so many hours but didn't get enough of it. finally got a game for me to play. yeah!! but the games that i currently play are full screen and it is inconvenient for me to switch to other programmes...so i am not going to log in msn even if i am using the computer.

Monday- wah the place is so cold, walking around makes it even colder..the supervisor isn't here for a week and she actually wanted to teach us something but the thing is no one remembered about it. Never mind, we still have other things to do. Now keying in data as usual. Then there is this address which seems so familiar. haha i realised the person stays in the same block as me... (-__________-)"

i was on my way out when i heard a dog yelping...was thinking to myself ' how weird it is, i thought dogs are not allowed to come in here.' ahhh then i finally saw the source of that yelping noise. It is a little boy making that sound. It really sounded like an excited puppy yelping.haha

The doors at my workplace are really dangerous in such a way that they swung towards the person who is about to enter the place. I was just one step away from the door when suddenly the door swung open in front of my face...thank goodness i didn't walk a bit faster today, if not... *leave some room for imagination...* haha they have even installed another door near my department. I mentioned to my friend that we will have a higher chance of getting hit by doors. She replied by saying- especially you right? haha i will try my best to stay far away from doors.

I misheard things again. Will tell my dance friend about it cos i misheard her in the past too. ^_^

Morning morning morning!! haha it looks kinda hazy now. Yesterday after work, it was hazy too, couldn't really see the skyscrapers clearly, as though there is this blurry effect.

Opened this chain letter sent from my friend which can make people really ponder about life bah. So i will just put it here... don't know whether have seen it before.

====================================================================
Carrot, Egg, or Coffee...

(You will never look at a cup of coffee the same way again...)

A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how
things were so hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved, a new one arose.

Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to boil. In the first she placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs, and in the last she placed ground coffee beans. She let them sit and boil,without saying a word.

In about twenty minutes she turned off the burners. She fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl. She pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. Then she ladled the coffee out and placed it in a bowl. Turning to her daughter, she asked, "Tell me what you see."

"Carrots, eggs, and coffee," she replied.

Her mother brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they were soft. The mother then asked the daughter to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, the mother asked the daughter to sip the coffee. The daughter smiled as she tasted its rich aroma.

The daughter then asked, "What does it mean, mother?"

Her mother explained that each of these objects had faced the same adversity - boiling water. Each reacted differently.

The carrot went in strong, hard, and unrelenting. However, after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak.

The egg had been fragile. Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior, but after sitting through the boiling water, its inside became hardened.

The ground coffee beans were unique, however. After they were in the boiling water, they had changed the water.

"Which are you?" she asked her daughter. "When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?"

Think of this: Which am I? Am I the carrot that seems strong, but with pain and adversity do I wilt and become soft and lose my strength?

Am I the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but changes with the
heat? Did I have a fluid spirit, but after a death, a breakup, a financial hardship or some other trial, have I become hardened and stiff? Does my shell look the same, but on the inside am I bitter and tough with a stiff spirit and hardened heart?

Or am I like the coffee bean? The bean actually changes the hot water, the very circumstance that brings the pain. When the water gets hot, It releases the fragrance and flavor. If you are like the bean, when things are at their worst, you get better and change the situation around you.

When the hour is the darkest and trials are their greatest, do you elevate yourself to another level? How do you handle adversity? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human and enough hope to make you happy.

The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; They just make the most of everything that comes along their way. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past; you can't go forward in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so at the end, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.

You might want to send this message to those people who mean something to you (I JUST DID); to those who have touched your life in one way or another; to those who make you smile when you really need it; to those who make you see the brighter side of things when you are really down; to those whose friendships you appreciate; to those who are so meaningful in your life.

If you don't send it, you will just miss out on the opportunity to brighten someone's day with this message! It's easier to build a child than repair an adult.

May we all be COFFEE!
==================================================================

Hmm..i can be all three leh..it is very hard for me to classify myself under one category. I can behave differently under different situations cos of my nature. I am more of the egg and the coffee beans. I think being in the carrot's situation is rare compared to the egg and the coffee beans situation. I agreed that the setbacks I have faced have fine-tuned my personality. But isn't it enough le for me? I certainly don't wish to harbour negative feelings but then, i can't help it but to feel that way. I just want a peaceful life, not a life full of "short" ups and "long" downs. Can't you just give me that?

===================================================================

Went out to meet my friend at raffles city mrt station during evening. Thought i was going to be late but i reached there on time. haha There isn't any place to have dinner so we walked all the way to Suntec city. We were walking like lost sheep wandering around to find food. Mistaken the way to cross the road. Sigh..it was quite a rush thing. We met up early but we were nearly late for the performance. Luckily, we didnt walk back to the victoria theatre- we took taxi. Were already seated in the theatre when we heard "ahem" near us. haha a few juniors came to watch the same time slot as us. One of them asked me about the donations. She said that to get the book, we have to donate. But, i just took leh and they didn't even mention anything about donations. haha

The performance is called Fables presented by the Dance Ensemble Singapore, The DES Arts. There are five parts-choreographed by 5 different people. In short, it is about man vs nature.

The first part is titled Temporal Greed.
"Humans are always supplementing themselves with material wealth at the expense of nature."

The second part is titled Forgiveness.
" Friend or Foe, you never know! It is best to protect yourself and not to antagonise the enemy behind the door."

Vulnerability
" Feelings of insecurity and suspicion intensify in this stress-ridden world. how can i halt this before I am left alone to face this hideous world?"

Facade
" Sincerity begets sincerity"
"Hypocrisy begets hypocrisy"
" What lies under the glamorous face"
" It's another face of deceit and lies"

Simplicity
"In a world of material conscience, human can never attain peace in the heart. In a world of simplicity, animals are always contented with nature. Can the human heart attain such simplicity?"

The performance is really amazing..*mouth wide open* haha they are really professional dancers. Everyone there can do splits, flips, somersaults, spins, turns and many others. I feel very motivated after the performance. But a bit inferior bah cos i don't know how to do all that. haha maybe i can practice at home * prepare helmet and safety gear....all set....* I must work very hard. ^_^ some actions are comical loh. Then there is one guy who did flips and landed out of the stage. I thought he under-estimated the distance to do flips. But it was purposely done. haha...it was amazing. I like the lead costume- light green in colour and very nice. Plus their movements are so graceful loh. Their costumes are all nice to look at.

After the performance, we walked around Suntec city for a while. Walked past marina square and that reminded me of our dance competition there. haha during the day of the competiton, we were interviewed by the media outside of marina square but i don't think it was featured on tv bah. no idea...

My friend was late again cos people pointed in all directions and she got lost. That's real unlucky cos she was trying to find her way via trial and error method. She called me twice but I didn't pick up. Cos i was too engrossed in listening to my mp3 and i don't really check my handphone when i am walking. It is troublesome to take out my handphone from my bag.

Today's topic was about the mass murder in an American university. I support his point of view but then he has taken things too far le. Haha and don't know why it led on to us talking about encounters with strangers. My 'work friend' has many such encounters which was serious. As serious in that she should made police report. Luckily, my encounters are not as serious as her. If not, i wouldn't know what to do.

I try my best to avoid stopping at jurong east mrt station, the jurong east bus interchange and the jurong point library cos these places were where my past encounters happened. If i had to alight there, i would spend minimal time.

So far when all of us are about to go for lunch together, my friend likes to stand behind me without any warning. I was too engrossed in my work and i couldn't possibly see anyone behind me. It took me some time to look up and realised that she is standing behind me. It happened a few times le.

Was telling my 'work friend' about my ex-friend. Yah, she thought that possessiveness occurs between lovers only. But between friends, such thing does occur. One real life example is me loh, having to deal with the problem of possessiveness (friends being possessive over me) for a few years le. I hope i can really really eliminate this problem and this won't happen to me ever ever again.

I thought i can finally play sims 2 but then installing halfway, i have no clue to where the last disc went to. Sigh..happy for nothing. I miss playing computer games. I shall scout for nice computer games for me to play.

i think i owe myself a lot..but then, the money i saved so far has been spend on other people but not on myself. sigh...what to do??

today, my friend was late to work cos she alighted at the wrong bus stop. She had to walk all the way to the workplace, which is very far. That's mean she had to pay back -end work later. So far i haven't been able to leave after work together and this is the 2nd day of her work. haha plus my "work friend" has a date straight after work. she didn't eat much because she is going to have a good dinner with her bf..haha...i think i eat the most today. (X_X)

Before lunch,my 'work friend' and I were talking about funerals. Because we were of different races, so we kinda exchanged information about how we do things loh. Yea, it was rather interesting to hear how malays go about doing funerals. She called it funeral part 1 discussion. We shall have funeral part 2 discussion next time. haha..

they have 24 hours time to bury the deceased. ooo then they don't put the coffin into the hole, just the dead body wrapped in cloth. That means when they reached the graveyard, they will take out the dead body from the coffin. The coffin can be reused again and again by the company. So it is kinda like renting a coffin bah. 2 men will jump down into the hole, then take the body from the top and put down in the hole loh. Then they reveal the face and turned the face sideways so that it can kiss the soil in a way. This means that the body will 'return' back to the soil. Oh ya, so when they send the body to the cemetery, the coffin will be at the back of the bus and the relatives will be seated in front. I personally feel that it is creepy when I am travelling on the same bus with a dead person in it. *goosebumps* They will calculated the days and on certain days, they will chant and pray for the dead loh.

She told me about this incident during kampong days. Her mother told her that there was once the body was wrapped tightly with cloth in the house and the relatives were chanting. Then suddenly, they saw the body wriggling. The expert said that they should continue chanting to appease the dead but it didn't stop. The expert said that never fear, she will see what happened. And the person was alive!! The person actually had a heart attack and was dead. Don't know how it happened, but he was alive. And he lived his life normally after that loh. Spooky right? Luckily, he wasn't already buried when he finally woke up.

My friend and I had a lot of "what ifs" about funerals. What if the 2 men had trouble coming out of the hole? Then actually fell on the body. Gross!! What if one of them dropped their handphone in the hole? Will they go back and take it? If leave it in the grave and the hp rang, "someone" answered the phone...it will be so creepy..haha

Do you really think that there is "the other world"? haha no one knows.

My mother told me that many years ago, there was this funeral wake. Suddenly, loud banging was heard from the coffin. No one dared to go near the coffin, let alone open it. After a while, it stopped. Was the person alive again? No one knows. Scary right? I wouldn't want to find myself stuck in a coffin..

During lunch, haha cos my friend moved house mah so we were talking about her house. haha..she moved into a private apartment then i thought got security guards mah. I asked her about it. my 'work friend' --> this is not condo loh, dun have security guards. jeannette has security guards at her house right? next time at work, the guard will be beside her.My friend --> haha that one is not security guard le, is body guard. Me --> No no...i dun have security guards ...(-_-)"where do the security guards come from? yah, so they kept on talking about security guards and me. (which doesn't exist at all)

Oooo tomorrow is friday!! i have been working for 3 weeks le..wow! i love fridays..haha..hope my friend will remember to go back to school to get the concert tickets. it is not convenient for me to go back to school, if so, i will be travelling the whole of singapore tomorrow. i am not intending to do so.

After what happened recently, I shall increase my security level.

My 'work friend' was late to work cos of the mrt. The mrt stopped for 10 minutes because someone used the radio to talk to the driver. Hmm, my friend didn't know what happen but it caused her to be late for work.

This is the first day of work for my another friend. haha...she didn't bring her jacket loh so she was freezing during work. it really slipped off my mind, i thought she would have brought it. we are not working at the same floor and in different departments. But at least, she got a friend working beside her.

It was raining so heavily that we had a hard time crossing the road to the market. then the three of us were eating at our department while chatting. I am glad that they are able to talk to each other loh. I worried that i will be stuck in the middle if the 2 of them doesn't get along well. I hope it won't happen this way. It is hard to make decisions when i am stuck in the middle. This is especially the case when both ask for me at the same time and i don't know who shall i attend to first. Headache...(X_X)

After lunch, 'my work friend' and I were chatting while doing our work. haha it was really funny sometimes. There was once she asked me what is my initials in the work's network. She started to write her initials at the work she has done mah. So she confirmed with me whether is it oa_ _ _. we happened to speak at the same time so it was like a mess. then i said oaomh..she said oaimh..then i confirmed with her is oaomh. so she said - " oh ya, your initials right?" she even say out my chinese name. But wait a minute, how does she know my chinese name if i didn't mention it? i think must be cos it can be seen in the network inbox. haha...then i asked her-so familiar ah? wat does imh stands for? singapore is a land of abbreviations so very hard to recall what exactly it is. then she said is institute of mental health. haha....that got me laughing real hard for a good 5 minutes, i think. i couldn't keep a straight face for quite some time. my face should be turning red at that time cos i could feel the heat of my face.

Now i am listening to my friend's song. Nice!! haha i like the percussion..haha how i wish i am good at composing songs. *fai dai-ing* But the person singing (i think it is not her, cos is a guy's voice) should let out the energy even more. Then it will reflect the song even better. haha jia you!!

i heard that exams are around the corner. So aja aja fighting!! Yeap!!
To L--> haha..want me to lock u in the exam room? hehe

btw am i funny?? why people say that? haha

here are some jokes -teachers-related. maybe i should put some funny jokes about different professions in every entry to share.

TEACHERS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A mom and dad were worried about their son not wanting to learn math at the school he was in, so they decided to send him to a Catholic school. After the first day of school, their son comes racing into the house, goes straight into his room and slams the door shut. Mom and dad are a little worried about this and go to his room to see if he is okay. They find him sitting at his desk doing his homework. The boy keeps doing that for the rest of the year. At the end of the year the son brings home his report card and gives it to his mom and dad. Looking at it they see under math an A+.

Mom and dad are very happy and ask the son, "What changed your mind about learning math?"

The son looked at mom and dad and said, "Well, on the first day when I walked into the classroom, I saw a guy nailed to the plus sign at the back of the room behind the teacher's desk and I knew they meant business."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The parents were very disappointed in the grades that their son brought home. "The only consolation I can find in these awful grades," lamented the father, "is that I know he never cheated during his exams."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Dad, can you write in the dark?"
"I think so. What is it you want me to write?"
"Your name on this report card."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A little girl came home from school and said to her mother, "Mommy, today in school I was punished for something that I didn't do."

The mother exclaimed, "But that's terrible! I'm going to have a talk with your teacher about this ... by the way, what was it that you didn't do?"

The little girl replied, "My homework."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The child comes home from his first day at school.
Mother asks, "What did you learn today?"
The kid replies, "Not enough. I have to go back tomorrow."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Little Johnny returns from school and says he got an F in arithmetic.
"Why?" asks the father.
"The teacher asked 'How much is 2x3?' and I said '6'"
"But that's right!"
"Then she asked me 'How much is 3x2?'"
"What's the fucking difference?"
"That's exactly what I said!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Teacher: "Sam, what is the outside of a tree called?"
Sam: "I don’t know."
Teacher: "Bark, Sam, bark."
Sam: "Bow, wow, wow!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The teacher came up with a good problem. "Suppose," she asked the second-graders, "there were a dozen sheep and six of them jumped over a fence. How many would be left?"
"None," answered little Norman.
"None? Norman, you don't know your arithmetic."
"Teacher, you don't know your sheep. When one goes, they all go!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Teacher: Milton, how can you prove the earth is round?
Milton: I can't. Besides, I never said it was.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Billy and Willy were at Sunday school studying about Noah's ark. On the way home, Willy asked, "Do you think Noah did much fishing?"
"How could he?" said Billy. "He only had two worms"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The teacher is droning away in the classroom when he notices a student sleeping way up in the back row. The teacher shouts to the sleeping student's neighbor, "Hey wake that student up!"
The neighbor yells back, "You put him to sleep, you wake him up!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Teacher: Johnny, you know you can't sleep in my class.
Johnny: I know. But maybe if you were just a little quieter, I could.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"If there are any idiots in the room, will they please stand up" said the sarcastic teacher. After a long silence, one freshman rose to his feet.

"Now then mister, why do you consider yourself an idiot?" enquired the teacher with a sneer.

"Well, actually I don't," said the student, "but I hate to see you standing up there all by yourself."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The science teacher lecturing his class in biology said, "Now I'll show you this frog in my pocket." He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a chicken sandwich. He looked puzzled for a second, thought deeply, and said, "That's funny. I distinctly remember eating my lunch."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Isn't the principal a dummy!" said a boy to a girl.

"Say, do you know who I am?" asked the girl.
"No."
"I'm the principal's daughter."

"And do you know who I am?" asked the boy.
"No," she replied.
"Thank goodness!"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A little kid's in school, taking a true-false test and he's flipping a coin. At the end of the test he's flipping the coin again. The teacher says, "What are you doing?" He says, "Checking my answers."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ways to grade the final exams

Dept of Statistics:
All grades are plotted along the normal bell curve.
Dept of Psychology:
Students are asked to blot ink in their exam books, close them and turn them in. The professor opens the books and assigns the first grade that comes to mind.
Dept of History:
All students get the same grade they got last year.
Dept of Religion:
Grade is determined by God.
Dept of Philosophy:
What is a grade?
Law School:
Students are asked to defend their position of why they should receive an A.
Dept of Logic:
If and only if the student is present for the final and the student has accumulated a passing grade then the student will receive an A else the student will not receive an A.
Dept of Computer Science:
Random number generator determines grade.
Music Department:
Each student must figure out his grade by listening to the instructor play the corresponding note (+ and - would be sharp and flat respectively).
Dept of Physical Education:
Everybody gets an A.

There is something seriously wrong with the internet connection and the entry that i just typed out was gone. Sighz..i am tired of watching tv and rather play online game. i have improved in playing Audition maybe cos of work.haha

today, i was at work when my secondary school friend told me that she had leg cramps after the walk on sunday. Wah, that is really serious. I felt fine when i reached home. (nan bu dao wo..)i guess she must have regretted numerous times about going. Haha, those first timers going to tree top walk, remember to think through a lot of times before deciding to go. ^_^

i requested for a half-day today to watch the syf central judging dances competition at ucc. I left work at 12.30pm and reached there around 1pm in clementi. Walked around the place while waiting for my friend who ended her work at 1pm. Plus her workplace is further than mine so i have to wait for around 40 minutes or so. Went to lunch together..haha i don't like to eat alone. then we took bus to ucc. we were very early and we got to watch the secondary school performances. haha i didn't know acsi took part in this competition too. it was impressive cos i gotten too used to school teams with lots of girls and very few boys in it. i usually thought that boys don't like to join dance as a cca cos they have some "thoughts" about dance. Most of the dance performances are mesmerising. I think my school's dance has improved le, though the effect will be better if there are many dancers. Everything ended at 5pm.

Yea it is over. haha...but i heard from my friend that all syf groups had to perform tomorrow in school. I think performing for the school asap is better than waiting for a few weeks later. Better to get it over and done with. For my syf, the performance in school was a few weeks after the competition. In this case, it was bad cos my parents kept on telling me to cut my hair. But i had to keep it very long because of the dance. My parents have a thing against long hair. But i don't care because i like long hair. haha..

Just came back from my long journey. Now, my brain isn't that alert. Don't know whether i should sleep now or later. *sleepy eyes*

6.30am this morning- the alarm woke me up but i still want to go back to sleep again. Cos i already felt so cosy, don't want to waste that moment of sleeping. Haha Then around 7am, my secondary school friend called me to double confirm that we were going to meet up. I reached jurong point at 8am so we travelled to Machritchie reservoir. It took us 1 hour. haha ok lah, i didn't really notice it.

My friend asked me whether i dye my hair. Cos it was the first time after O levels that we meet up. haha..nah i didn't. My hair is naturally reddish brown. Though it can't be easily seen unless under sunlight. My hair actually changes from black to reddish brown during jc period. I didn't notice (as usual) until there was a time my friends kept on asking me about my hair. Or even ask me wat did i do to make my hair so soft- like a little child's hair. (-_-)" i thought everyone's hair is all the same. So i went home to ask my mother about it and she said that this actually runs in the family. haha

We started walking into the nature reserve. Luckily there wasn't any rain when we were there. There were many jc students canoeing-all from different schools. Some really looked like they are rowing without any boats cos the boats are beneath the water surface. Are they sinking? haha...

So we talked on the way to the treetop walk. my friend said that i didn't talk much on the bus but now i started talking a lot.haha This was because early morning, i don't like to talk much. i like some peace and quiet first thing in the morning. During the journey, she kept on asking me- are we there yet? have we reached the treetop walk? around up to 3 or 4 times. haha...the route is more of a uphill walk so they classified this route as moderate to difficult. Plus don't get decieved by the signs cos it is really a long walk. She said she had the patience but not the stamina. I like walking so it is possible for me to do this without stopping. We stopped at the ranger station and yea, there is a fan in the washroom. haha...Fan---the greatest invention. haha Monkeys were loitering there eyeing on people's food. Then we continued on the way. Yea, we finally reached the bridge.haha..only a few people were walking on the bridge. We have to stop a while cos a couple was busy taking photos of each other and ended up blocking the way. I was, in a way looking down while we stopped. I felt the bridge moving beneath me. wanted to take a picture of the bridge in my phone but then, after i took it, my phone auto shut down for no reason. Plus there wasn't any reception at the bridge. After leaving the bridge, i checked my phone and there wasn't any photograph taken. Aiya wasted it, cos i can't go back to the bridge- is a one way.

^_^ Thus, we finished the walk at around 12.45pm. That means it took us around 3 hours and 45 minutes to finish the route. The route by right takes 4 hours but we finished it earlier. haha Comments from my friend- she said that she regretted going there if she had known it is that tough. she will only do this again in another 10 year's time. haha

Told ya...this treetop walk needs lots of energy and perseverence. Once started, cannot turn back and say " i give up." Better give lots of thought before you started to do this. haha i never say that it is easy at all.

After that, we took bus to AMK hub and had our lunch there. I went to AMK hub yesterday night too. So we walked around for a while and decided to head home. My legs are so tired when i reached home. Refusing to leave my bed.

my bro showed me this new console - nintendo wii online. wah so nice.. haha i want it when it is being released in singapore. There is a version of harvest moon can be played using nintendo wii. haha..as long as got harvest moon, i want. haha..i am sick of playing the computer version.

Today is the last day of my first semester in dance. We were too tired to practise so we sat around and chatted. Although it is already our last day today, we didn't actually know each other in the class especially with the boys. Then my friend started asking them their names and introduced everyone else. haha what irony, today is the last day and yet now then , we have this proper introduction. Up till now, i don' really know the boys' names. Did formation and i happened to be in the group whereby i have to differ from the usual routine- change of directions. So i had to ponder for a while to make sure i do in the correct direction. K lah, a bit challenging for me. We are having a one week break before starting the second semester.

Raining so heavily today-nearly cannot even see the roads. think of it as one benefit--> haha more water in the reservoir for our daily consumption. When i reached home from dance, i really feel like sleeping. But i have to endure loh cos i have to go to my senior's birthday party in the night. haha..her aunt's place is so huge. haha..my friends and I decided that we want our future homes to be there. it is like a little town in European countries and so peaceful. haha but we live individually loh. i agreed with my friends that it is actually difficult to live with friends cos we may ended up quarreling for the slightest things. This may affect friendship as we may have conflicting lifestyle habits.Saw a number of seniors that i classified under "popular seniors in school". Some of them have changed that i couldn't really recognise them. They still have that same behaviour as compared to during school time. In a way gotta catch up with happenings with my friends -which were more of the "shocking news" category. But i can't mention it here.

Today is the day that i found out that someone has been making use of my name and somehow tainted my reputation.I tell u ...it is downright disappointing. It hurts badly when you have done nothing to the person and the person just did some bad stuff plus he/she doesn't feel apologetic about it at all. Got such insensitive people existing? Yes, there are lots of them. Sad to say, i have come across too many le but still, i got hurt again and again by different individuals. I don't know how to deal with them at all cos they appear in different forms. Perhaps i will take a year to see that they are the same kind deep down. My friend once asked me- "why are your friends like that de?" My response was: "I dont know but they just like to come my way-one after the other. I don't think that i can break away from such a situation."

I really don't know what to do. I have come to a point whereby i can't do anything to help myself. Every decision is not for me to decide. It is beyond my control and is spinning away like crazy.

@The impossible has happened, why can't the possible happen too??@

Today, the department treated everyone to breakfast because it is the 2 interns' last day of attachment in here. Actually, they bought the food real late and my friend and I were starving. We thought that they may cheat our feelings if they ended up buying nothing. Haha breakfast is a very important meal to me. It is a must to eat compared to lunch and dinner. I think i can eat the same stuff for lunch too since there is a lot left. Haha i told my friend to hide the box of food for ourselves later. hee of cos we didn't do so.

Ahh...today is friday the 13th. I didn't notice till one of the colleagues mentioned it. I think last year, there were more friday the 13th compared to other years. I am now reading up about friday the 13th.heez

Taken from a website

In the Western world, a significant chunk of the population suspects bad things will happen whenever the 13th day of a month occurs on the day of the week called Friday.
Like many human beliefs, the fear of Friday the 13th (known as paraskevidekatriaphobia) isn't exactly grounded in scientific logic. But the really strange thing is that most of the people who believe the day is unlucky offer no explanation at all, logical or illogical. As with most superstitions, people fear Friday the 13th for its own sake, without any need for background information.

If that's the case, we are guilty of perpetuating a misnomer by labeling Friday the 13th "the unluckiest day of all," a designation perhaps better reserved for, say, a Friday the 13th on which one breaks a mirror, walks under a ladder, spills the salt, and spies a black cat crossing one's path — a day, if there ever was one, best spent in the safety of one's own home with doors locked, shutters closed and fingers crossed.

Unlucky Friday + Unlucky 13 = Unluckier Friday

My Comments: (-______________-)"" like that also can...the name of the phobia is so long.

urban legends are really fascinating. haha...but too bad that there are not real. i used to hope that the loch ness monster is real. but then, a brave guy walked on the floor of that huge lake and said that there is no sight of such a monster. Somemore, the floor is very smooth. The merman shown in the website seems scary but luckily, it is not real.haha but it looked so real.

was busy at work when suddenly someone called my name. haha and the person-in-charge of personal matters was with my friend..haha..yea we will be working at the same place too but too bad, we are in different departments. i think her job scope is much wider. but aiya, we will still be seeing each other everyday. haha...was so happy to see her....i think i behave like seeing long-lost friends though we just met maybe one month plus back..haha

hmm..have you ever come across situations whereby u hear someone calling your name but there isn't anyone around. haha if you have, please tell me. If not, i will think i am the only one with that problem. haha at least, tell me that it is normal for such things to happen.

Creepy eh? haha i have experienced that many times before. I can recall one incident. Last year, I was in the school bookshop when i heard someone calling my name very near my right ear. Really sounds like the voice of one of my friend. Then i turned around but there was no one around me. And my the other friend was at the back part of the bookshop so there is no way she will call my name plus her voice is not like that. Then i keep on looking around and really there wasn't anyone that I know of.When we were outside the bookshop, i asked my friend whether she has seen that friend around in the bookshop. My friend said that she has already gone straight home cos it was after school mah. Though both of us knew that she wasn't in school at all at that time, i still had to make sure whether it was really her. Till now, I don't have any answer. Maybe my ears are playing tricks on me.

Yesterday, my friend and I talked more than usual. Maybe because we were taking our time to do the work. The work is getting more tedious. Haha we ended up laughing for quite some time. Was a relaxing day for us. Healthy lifestyle day mah..haha

Nowadays at home, I don't use the computer much. Plus i have been looking at the computer all throughout work. Very tired when i reached home. I slept at 9pm yesterday haha and slept all the way to 7am today.haha great sleep ^_^ and had dreams that made no sense at all.
(-_-)"

Koalas are going to be extinct in 7 years time. This is such a short period of time.

Next saturday, i am going to a dance concert at Victoria Theatre. Haha actually i thought i couldn't make it because it was in the afternoon. And that was right in the middle of my lesson. Luckily, they have another timing which is at night. Yea, so i am going with my juniors to watch. I think the last time that we went there, it was raining heavily. Everyone went there wet and it was kinda chaotic.

haha i became my friend's secretary. Too bad i don't have any qualification, maybe can work as secretary for some time. Haha...i am used to being secretary for my friends.

Yea, maybe my friend is joining me for work soon. haha...even though we won't be living in the same area, we can at least be working together... ^_^

Was trying to entertain myself during lunch break-by doing quizilla.com quizzes..i think the next blog entry will be full of those quizzes results..just for my entertainment purposes..haha...too engrossed in it and i forgot that the lunch break was already over..haha

Now having lunch in the office and the food portion is a lot. haha my friend was wondering how on earth will i finish it but i told her: never mind, we all got one hour for lunch break. haha i can take mini breaks in between eating..haha

today, got a new change of work today which is good. If not, the work will be monotonous. Now the current work speed is slower cos there are so many steps involved. This morning, they gave everyone in the office an apple and Yakult cos it is Healthy Lifestyle day. So sweet..haha Then my friend said that her work progress is slow compared to the past few days. haha i told her that since today is healthy lifestyle day, we cannot be so stressed out so working slow today is alright. Wonder how will our supervisor respond if we say this.

For those who are reading this entry, please remember to make a will when u are older. Also, please leave enough money for your loved ones to at least tide over a certain period of time. haha ^_^ i encounter certain cases whereby they only had very little money in their accounts. Today's case was that the person left less than $1 in the account. I don't know why but they were given in dividends. (-__-)"" So the next-of-kin ended up recieving a few cents. What can a few cents do?? At least if given at one shot, maybe the next-of-kin can buy one ice cream cone from Macdonalds to comfort himself. There are some cases whereby the person refused to give anything to one of his sons. Aiii...that's real sad. But we all have to understand both sides of the situation, maybe that son really did something to greatly disappoint the person. Another case that i heard about was that the person requested the payment by cheque and the amount was just a few cents. In the end, I think the person has to pay the cheque processing service instead of recieving any money le. That is unlucky.

Today is my friend's birthday!! Haha Happy Birthday to you!!

I seriously think I will end up with nothing at all. Lao tian ah, please don't do this to me anymore. I really don't know what is your reason to treat me this way. Feels like i am already at the end of the cliff, looking down at the vast difference in height compared to the ground. You are really pushing me to the end. Those that happened in the past, I understood why you are doing this. But now, I have reached the point whereby there is nothing else for me to understand any possible reason.

On my way to work, I was at the mrt station when they announced that there is a delay of 5 minutes in the train arrivals due to a train accident. The affected line was the North-South Line, towards Woodlands. But the person didn't elaborate further so I am not sure what exactly happened. At first, I thought i misinterpreted the announcement cos i was listening to my mp3 player.

Was reading the Budget 2007 and it made me feel so optimistic. Maybe cos they sound so confident with their proposals. I hope it really improves the financial status of the majority. ^_^

Time passes real slowly today and my friend feels that perhaps it is due to monday blues. haha we have been doing the same routine continuously. Abit bored and lack of msn interaction.haha i feel like playing games...but so far no nice computer games to play..

Going on a long journey this sunday...haha

Yesterday, was too tired to do anything especially when i reached home. Been dancing non-stop for 2 hours plus and the irony is that those who ought to practise more didn't even practise much. Aii...when i wanna rest and let them dance, they want me to dance too-so that they can follow my dance steps. Actually don't need me de, if remember the steps, dun need to look at me. My friend still videotaped me every lesson. -_-" But i think most of them improve de lah..haha yesterday's lesson, we learnt something harder and faster too. Cos dance instructor from japan may come over. But he/she didn't at the end of the lesson. I got pulled to the centre front this time round to show the new dance. Cos my dance instructor said that i did it with right timing. But i was a bit disoriented so i messed up. Gahh.....but never mind, i will try to improve on my movements for the next lesson.

Then after that, met my friend. She didn't tell me that it was organised by the church loh. So i ended up going to her church service too along with the funfair. This is to celebrate the Easter. The drama was super nice. Especially the part whereby they were singing the "tokyo drift song" but they change the song lyrics to suit the drama. Then one of the guys got so engrossed in the beat-boxing that he continued even though the rest stopped singing. haha it was comical. Satan in the drama was real scary. Plus he has a real snake around his neck!! I saw the snake's head moving loh. That is real scary. How do they manage to borrow a large yellow snake? From the zoo?? The most heart wrenching part was when he was nailed to the cross, that loud thuds shook my heart cos it was real loud. And he being tortured. sighh..."he can save others, but he can't save himself." not that he didn't want to, but he wants to sacrifice for the sake of everyone. That is really a very wei da thing to do. This also reminds me of a conversation about fortune tellers with my friend. haha..expo is really freezing cold. i think i should bring a jacket wherever i go le-everywhere is so cold. It ended very late and i have to travel nearly the whole of the east-west mrt line, but good loh, don't need to switch. haha People can't tell out my age. Thought that i am my friend's younger sister...thought i am her secondary classmate and blah blah..haha...

Been reading my oldest entries in this blog and i realised that there are some things that i nearly forgotten about. haha...eg: before the competition, one of the dance mates said to me: give me your sehness. and after that, some of them started saying that to me too..yea i really forgotten about it. haha i miss dance performances and competitions. And also the trend that my friends noticed in me during school. mon ,tues-i will be blur blur, not quite get what people are talking about, a bit slow in frequency.haha. wed, thurs-i will go crazy, starting saying imaginative stuff. Wah, i really mentioned very personal issues in my early entries. hmm, i wasn't aware of it. Maybe cos very little people viewed my blog at that time and people will not scrutinize my every word and spread rumours all around. I don't like to doubt people anyway - but then after some time, the ugly side of people just happened to show up. This made me disappointed. One good thing about not being in school studying anymore is the friendship and people issues. I looked back and saw that such problems love to stick to me. I dun go find them, they just come and find me. Once i solved one problem, another problem of almost the same kind just came back to me again. Although it was in disguise at the beginning. Aii, i hope i will really get away from such problems in the future.

Its Good Friday today. The first holiday in April. Haha i want more holidays to come my way..i read that if u choose certain days to take leave, there will be a lot of holidays for u to enjoy especially in this year.

Been folding incense paper this morning for tomorrow's visit to the cemetery. But I am not going cos I have stuff to do. haha usually my father doesn't help fold, but today he suddenly did a bit of that. And he was telling us how to make it nicer-by pulling the sides of the paper. The funny part was the first time that he demonstrated-he tore it..it was hilarious. haha the action at that moment was funny

In the evening, had dinner at my grandparents' place. it has been a long time. haha ..can watch tv much freely too. i miss my youngest cousin-he wasn't at my grandparents' place. sigh..my grandfather still went to work today even though today is public holiday.

Yea, i finished the vineyard man drama series..haha wah a very nice ending. At least no one died in the show. Actually, if i am the girl, it will be a tough choice for me too. There was one part where they sang a song. The korean song title is super long but in english, it is called "Everyone is born to be loved". Nice title right? haha What a pity that it is over so fast. Now i have to search for another nice drama to watch..haha The most important thing for any person to have is to understand other people's feelings. Like the character mentioned in the drama, not knowing how to understand other people's feelings is much more terrible than not knowing how to read and write. I agree with this though both are important too. No matter what, people will be around us, we really have to get along with people. We can't be without anyone right?

Currently, learning to sing a korean song properly(haha the keyword is properly). Usually i any-how sing de, plus no one will understand what i am singing. haha the song is real sad but sweet at the same time. It speaks exactly how i feel deep inside bah though i don't tell anyone about it. It is really private. The first time i came across it was last year...late at night studying. When i first watched it, it was way too sad for me. I hope less of such things will happen to people cos it is really upsetting to see this kind of scenario.

Today is the last working day of this week. Happy Happy (^_^)..if only it happens every other week. How nice it will be if weekends has 3 days instead of 2 days and weekdays having 4 days instead of 5 days. Haha life will be much better, i suppose.

Yea, going out with my friend this saturday to expo funfair. it has been more than one year since i last went out with her. so happy that she asked me to go. ^_^ happy happy and i am there to help her spend her tickets..haha i won't forget what she wrote in my autograph book some time ago. I was surprised when i first read it actually-i didn't know she thinks that of me. When i feel very down, I would take a look at my autograph book cos the friends who wrote in there gave me comfort and encouragement. ^_^ It is actually one way to relieve old memories.

Nothing much happened at work. But kept on having that sharp pain after lunch. Don't know why.

The most important things are the hardest things to say. Don't you think so? Perhaps the most important things matter so much that if it is being said out, people may not show the kind of reaction that they want to. The fear of disappointment is so serious that people usually only let the heart knows instead of telling it out.

haha i miss my bed....

hey-ya, today onwards,i have decided to update my blog during my break-time. When i reach home, whatever that i want to say-i will forget. Been doing non-stop at work. walking here and there to get the files and start keying in the data. the people here are so nice especially the head in my group. they won't scold if anyone makes mistakes-just patiently point out the mistakes.(^_^)one of them even gave everyone food this morning. So sweet of them.Today, came across weird cases. For eg: this guy's document..it says that the day of his death is in 1976. But the day of his funeral is in 1974. O_O how is that possible?? haha..i don't think it makes any sense. And then, there was this family having a very interesting sir name. but i dun think i should mention it here cos it is too unique le. dun want to say out something that i am not supposed to leak out.haha (^x^)Ah..and also the trouble of banks. There is one whole list of bank codes which makes the task all the more troublesome. There is like no standard bank code for the branches of different banks unlike POSBANK. I love posb-bank now ...haha...cos is straight forward. Don't need to search in the list at all. The workplace is like a freezer.

Recently, watching the vineyard man. As far as I know, it is about this city girl who has always lived in Seoul and suddenly her grandfather told her to live with him in the countryside for a year and learning farming. After one year, he will give his vineyard to her. Then there is this guy helper in the vineyard which she had conflict with ever since she bumped into him in Seoul. So in general, this is about how she adapts to country life. Initially, i think nothing much of the guy but then as i continue to watch, i think he has a much better personality than the doctor. The doctor is a senior that the city girl knew in school. So now, the doctor and the farmer are rivals in love. Yea, i feel that there is something fishy with the doctor-this i can agree with the other viewers. Maybe he is after her inheritance, that's why he likes her.

This actually reminds me of the game that I have a craze on and off during certain periods of time. Haha, i played Harvest Moon from Japan. I think some of my secondary friends will know about this cos we played together at someone's house. Harvest Moon is about this city boy who has inherited a farm from his dead grandfather. The farm has not been touched at all for a very long time. So the task is to revive the farm and live in the countryside. Not only that, there are events - harvest festival, cow festival, horse racing festival and blah blah. So in the countryside, there are a few girls for the boy to choose loh. He has to marry a girl at the end of the game. There are many different versions -boy or girl version and some others. For different seasons, the farmer has to plant different crops. For eg: in spring-turnip, potato. in summer, tomato, corn. in autumn and winter, there is nothing much. Unless the farmer has a greenhouse. The house can be upgraded too to include a spa and a kitchen. In the kitchen, can cook dishes using the crops that the farmer has grown. Can even dig for gold in the nearby caves. haha...but usually i too lazy to earn lots of money, so i activate cheat codes. heee. but something, it is difficult to do so because it doesn't really respond to my cheatcodes.

Haha, there was one funny incident. One morning, my mother woke me up for school and the first thing that i said was...wat crops seeds should i plant today? haha and my mother was stunned..oops been playing too much le. in the game, every morning, i will have to sow the seeds in the field. haha

my break is over...i will get back to work.

Today is my first day at work. It is way better than my previous job. Haha cos i have a new friend there and the people there seem to be friendly. No scolding and we just do at our own pace. Today, we did a lot-getting faster and faster. Done more than a hundred cases of updates. Yea! They even provide a set of stationery. Ahh..it sure is nice to have a friend in the workplace. With friends, at least anything bad, i can still go through it.

But the spoiler of the day is that i was too engrossed in my work and I spoilt my favourite bracelet. T_T hu..hu...Dun know whether i can fix it or something. Not only that, my shoes have a problem too. So unlucky.

Was talking on the phone just now. Just rant it out whatever u are displeased with and i will be there to listen. yea-totally understand how u feel. Let's fight towards our dreams-having our own personal space!! (^___________^) Aja Aja Fighting!!

It is 1st April-April Fool's Day!! Haha too bad i can't think of any ideas to fool anyone. Plus i am at home so the only target is my brother. I remembered my mother told me about her friend who got married on 1st April many years ago and no one believed him at all. They finally believed when he gave them invitation cards personally instead of calling them up. Haha who will choose that kind of day to get married. -___________-" it is a lot of trouble to explain that it is real.

Time flies real fast-it is another month already. A few days more, will be someone's birthday. I will try to come up with something asap. haha

Yesterday was chatting with my friends. My friend asked me this question- in order to make everyone happy, i will sacrifice myself as in i will make myself sad instead OR make myself happy and sacrifice's other ppl's happiness. haha...my answer for this question is obvious de but i guess she didn't spend much time with me in school so she doesn't really know my answer. Friends that spend lots of time with me in school can even answer this question on my behalf. Haha..My answer is the first option-i have done that a few times le. It is better for just one person to be sad rather than many people to be sad. Tat's my opinion.

Now giving moral support and all the help that i can give to my friend..who is in a rush to finish her songs. Jia you!!! i hope i can really help u in any way. ^_^ Good luck for your exams!!

Dun know what possessed me to read "Entertainment"- having goosebumps again...
