copy and paste a boring day at work

Watched the much talked about movie "The Maid" that day.. wasn’t that fantastic coz the scary scenes kept coming out consecutively, resulting in surprise level 0. guess the punch of the movie would be the story behind the family which the maid worked for.. ohh.there was this scene which showed the maid was climbing into bed after bathing and washing her hair.. maybe it was the angle or the way the scene was taken, the maid’s hair looked super dupa straight, smooth and shiny black,bouncy and healthy. It really looks like the advertisements for Pantene…!!
Ok..enuff about the hair.. watched another movie called " Red Eye" yesterday..starring Rachel McAdams.. storyline was good and lots of psychologically intensed- exchanges between the killer and Rachel, and all these happened onboard a plane flight..would recommend all to watch it.! Better than the maid.

Typing this on MS word in office..would be posted in my blog if successful..hoping I can save it on a diskette and bring home to copy n paste into my blog. But hor. I’ve got a feeling that blogspot don’t allow copy and pasting. Shucks. Lol. But nevermind, to while away time, I’ll still continue to pretend I’m blogging.

Planning to shop abit during my lunch today and just buy bread back for lunch…my cake history! I love the bread there and I haven’t patronized them in a long while. Walking to my workplace from the train station is real good exercise, by the time I reach office, would be perspiring and tired… thinking of checking out the private buses that would stop by the bus stop at my place,and goes direct to my workplace…the more auntiefied way of traveling to work..hah..were my colleagues who gave me the idea. She said the trip is fast and cost only $1.10 max..but they say I should just dong1 $1..usually they wouldn’t mind or know. Sounds good! I’m going to try to catch the bus tomorrow, see how long it takes to reach my workplace, or if it goes to my workplace at all.

It’s 10.40am now…office is cold as usual. Lucky I’ve got the ripcurl jacket I bought from Sydney which keeps warm better than any of the huge big jackets I bought from Singapore..though it looks quite thin but the material is meant for winter wear I guess.
Yawningz and I feel I could sleep anywhere and anytime. Had been staying up to catch repeats for the HK serial starring ouyang zheng hua…11.40pm to 12.30am..ZZzzZz. didn’t used to like him but after watching a few of his serials, think he’s really a good actor and that explains his popularity. Particularly like him when he manages to portray a kind and thoughtful and righteous character,but when it comes to relationships, he is supposed to be shy and do interesting and silly stuff for the girlfriend (who are usually gorgeous actresses like Ada Choi or Guo Xian4 Ni2)… well, effort also goes to the scriptwriters and directors. Somehow, HK scriptwriters have the knack of creating great and unique characters for their stories, not forgetting the importance of good and interesting dialogues. As compared to local dramas, the vocab and lines they use are usually hoh hoh limited. The dialogues between a daughter-in-law and a mother-in-law who are often at loggerheads, is so typical. Spiteful conversations and content is so predictable. tsumaranai ne!

Haiz..back from toilet break. Think I’m really falling asleep soon. Wish I could play my mayday disc now to wake me up…when sep ends…lol..ahh..what am I talking about. Oh, did I mention that the aunties in my office sometimes call each other and chat through the phone, when they don’t want me to hear what they’re talking about. The things they do!haha.. hope they aren’t talking bad about me.

p/s: yess! i managed to copy n paste! (^_^)v

a day of a pamphlet-giver (is there a professional term for this??)

hahz..dunno anyone of you walked past somerset mrt today anot.. well, would have caught me giving out some perfume promo pamphlet from 1-4pm.. it was super hot and it didn't take long before i found out a more inovative use of the pamplet- to fan myself... naz joined in the fanning also..haha. well, was a lobang by naz's friend to earn help give out these leaflets just for today, pay was peanuts but more like was for the fun of it.for me la. really jogged my memory of schooling days when i used to temp all sorts of funny jobs.. anything from giving out brochures, assistants for events, boring data entry, kena conned into a scam of selling christmas cards on the streets (lasted for all of 2 hrs when i made a great plan to escape..with sharon san..she was a victim too.hahaha) ..and to promoting health food in watsons...how exciting..! lol. was fun then..thinking back.

.well, was great fun observing how people dress and behave and all the funny and omoshiroii ways they accept or reject our pamplets. naz was giving out the pamplets on the side where people are coming up the escalators to go town, while i was on the side where people are going down to take the train. i gave out mine faster than his though he started like 15 min earlier than me (i was late).... my guess is that people will take the brochures to kill boredom while on their way home...but more likely is that naz'z face not so friendly or approachable... we even spotted a few who ran away (as in really running..like 2.4kim run kind) when he tried to give out the brochures to them. ok la..maybe they were really in a huge huge rush...not nice to push the blame all to his face..keke.

hmm.so the stint ended at 4pm and phew..finally can go shopping! ordered a pair of shoes coz they don't have my size.. heh. yeah...new shoes to wear! naz really couldn't shop much coz "his legs were tired" ..how can it be when he can jog 4-5km and go gym so often.. his reason was that running is less tiring than shopping. ??!!!?

ok. think most of the gals would find it difficult to agree to this.

ashita hataraku again......how i wish weekend can go on forever....ok..childish thought. wake uP natsuri san.!

recently.... i'm deprived of the net

in case you might be wondering if i had been too busy to blog in the past 1 week or so.. no. work wasn't busy at all.. i had to find work to do..like packing my table, cleaning the computer monitor and the table..doing what the cleaner would normally do.. quite sian actually. or play solitaire... urgh. i actually prefer to be busy so that time passes faster. well, esther told me outright that meantime nothing much..but once she loads the accounting program into my comp, then i'll have lots of data entry and tallying of figures to do..oh shucks..i remember the data entry i did last time..at the end of the day, i was groggy and totally brain dead..but time really flew by and i was so tempted to do OT to finish up..but no la..it's ok.. i'm not so hardworking.haha

finally met naz after a week! ..was busy w gatherings and stuff and our schedules totally clashed.... says alot about our planning skills.. keke. anyways, we met up to arrange photos..yeah..about 100 pics lo...and then just cooked maggie mee to eat. . .and we as usual had lots to argue about the "u shld eat vege, it's good for you" issue.good attempt to eat some w soya sauce..(weird)... but need to ganbatte lo.

went jogging after that..haven't been exercising coz feel lazy recently. now i see the aunties in my company..they're so onz about losing weight and maintaining weight! 3 years ago..they were quite plump..now they're super thin lo..one of them only weighs 47kg..thats lighter than watashi! as they said, they want to look young and well maintained tho they have reached the auntie age...heh. think it's not easy to be so positive about upkeeping their image..most would have given up and just resigned to being fat and auntie-like... so i really admire their perseverence!

yup.gonna post less often coz my net connection is so cannot make it. always disconnected and my frens keep asking me why i keep signing in and out of msn...don't ask me why... me really don't want it to happen and i really zenzen wakaru... and plus office doesn't allow me to surf the net....hence, refer to the title.

sidenote: yeah! mayday album is out! buddy ng! i love lian ai-ING...so cute...the way ashin sang..heh... even naz has admitted that their songs are not too bad after my indoctrination...yeah! potential mayday convert!

please keep the toilet clean

.. noticed a sign pasted behind my office toilet cubicle door which i found very weirdly worded and quite funny... actually typed it in my mobile while i was baking cake...check it out:

~ when you are not around, the cubicles and toilet seats are dry and smiling happily.
~when you are back they are sobbing with tears (meaning the cubicles and toilet seats are wet and stink with your urine)
~ DO YOUR PART
~clean up before you leave.
~ALTERNATIVE, pls call the cleaner to help you clean up your mess: Tel: 9xxxxxxx

those words in brackets are originally in that poster, not i added in myself one ok..wahhaha
maybe i should try calling the number and see if the cleaner responds.

from my prediction, the cleaner auntie has gotten her primary 2 son to write this poster. what you think?

atarashi tokoro..shigoto...hito...hi..

first day of work @ my old temp company.. familiar faces and till the boss asked me in strong jap accented english, when was the last time he saw me...it was actually 2002! god...3 years already. cliche but really..how time flies! settled down and everything seemed to fall into place easily. i have to emphasize that i took only 1 call today!!! hah. yeah...my job isn't taking calls anyways, but still feel so high when i think of that. heh. less stress and less desk bounded by that headset. can take my own sweet time to go toilet and make tea. good. but environment is a little too quiet with less people around..though my 2 hip auntie colleagues can really talk but frequency not there...they're funny though. I prefer to listen to them talk..can be pretty interesting when they speak in teochew about their family politics and about their children. had been talking too much for the past 1 year, i actually enjoy listening now.

well, just some thoughts for the day. my dad was the happiest to see me home for dinner at 7pm..nagging about this is how a proper job should be. like can come home on time for dinner and can have a leisurely chat at the same time..

billy and the fountain


....met naz that day...went billy bombers coz he wanted to try the buffalo wings which i've been telling him how oishii it was.. walked around and took a neoprint for fun..and had buffalo wings and cheese fries in billy.. and the real cool soda drink above...it's called green grasshopper...was good.

then went to send my photos for developing..had accumulated 100+ photos in all to develop..shucks..going to go broke liao.but luckily they one we went to is 20 cent per photo if we develop more than 100... think plus naz's, got more than 200 +... at least not so ex la..

then drove to sentosa to catch the musical fountain during evening time... paiseh to say..this is actually the 1st time i'm watching it.. hahah. there were 2 shows, one at 7.40pm and another at 8.40pm... we went there at about 7.15pm and saw a crowd standing at the entrance yelling.. they were some stupid tourists dunno from either china, taiwan or malaysia, shouting and making a scene, coz the 7.40pm show was full.. siao stupid cheena pple.. screamed that they want to see the manager and what kind of hospitality is this to tourists... totally uncouth and disgusting. maybe too long in customer service line ,i felt empathy for the young usher who was busy pacifying the batch of unreasonable tourists. total babaric act.

we lazed around trying to figure out the functions of my cam...again.. while waiting for the 8.40 shoew to start...well.. i'm very interested to know how the heck can i take nice nite shots with my cam.... managed to go into the 8.40 show and the show was quite entertaining (i mean for a free show, it's good.) with lasers and beautiful fountain formations..just wished that they could show more variety of water musical fountains rather than using high tech lasers to project moving fishes and crabs on the waters......

tomorrow starting new job...will be seeing esther and patricia again! hehe..havent seen them in a while.. excited..and mr ishinabe too! the 1st line i'm going to tell him is ohisashiburi desu ne!hehe.... he'll be shocked that i'm taking nihongo now..haha..

well for now, fingers crosssed! ming tian hui gen hao!~ ZZzZZz

dear friends..so long..wasurenai..~

while walking to office yesterday morning, it suddenly struck me that this is probably the last time i'll be taking that route. As i fished out my pass clumsily at the security post, it dawned on me also that it's sayonara to the security uncles.. (not that i miss them..)...When i took calls and greeted the routine opening greeting, i felt i actually said it with alot of gusto, maybe coz i knew this will the one of the last few times i can get to say it (not that i'll miss doing it also..)... guess that is what i call pre-departure symptoms,everyone would feel it (difference might be just the degree of feelings) but it just comes and usually goes fast also once u've assimilated into your new surroundings.

had dinner at fish and co with a couple of my cluster mates and also ms putri, hasn't seen her in long while..! took lots of weird pictures and off we went to ktv @ partyworld. lots of commotion when we were on our way to the ktv.. coz siew hui drove and 5 gals squeezed behind.. debating on whether siew hui will put our lives in danger...but siew hui didn't talk to us at all through out the journey and only focused driving.. we reckoned that he's trying to prove us wrong. keke

ktv was good..though a couple left awhile coz they gotta work the next day.. and they were "persuaded" by jy (a.ka.. JunYang..that's what he always say about himself. ) to go ktv lor...haha..poor people..but it was alot more fun with more people in ktv..the more the merrier ma. stayed on till about 2am when zheng xuan ended the session with 2 andy lau songs, gushing about how cute he looks in the mtv...

had a "heart to heart" talk with buddy ng in the cab home when she chided me for being a so-called "loyal" mayday fan when i don't even know their new album will be out on 26 aug....ok! so now i noe!! yeah! their new song is called "lian4 ai4- ing (yin1)" ...cool name...no need listen i can confirm it'll be super nice....

dementia..the seriousness.

decided to meet up w naz last night ..pretty last minute , to buy some stuff and dinner together... went heartland mall coz he said it's nearer to my place and after that, i can go home earlier to study my nihongo. yes...he just reminded me i've got nihon go no shiken on wed.ahhhrg.. abit scared..butterflies in my stomach now thinking of it... blogging and studying at the same time (guess which i'm doing more.) .

yeah..i was saying..i intro him to the famous mee pok at the hawker centre there and he decided to try that. was thinking might as well i order the same as him also..so that he can buy the food together.. while he was q-ing up, i changed my mind and want to eat prawn noodles instead. so i signalled to him that i do not want it anymore, shaking my head and waving my hands left and right (quite obvious that i'm telling him "i do not want it, don't order for me").. so he queued... 5 min later, saw him came back with 1 bowl of mee pok and a huge bowl of soup to go with it.kaoz! the auntie dam nice to him lor..gave him such a huge bowl of soup, even bigger than his noodle bowl. was about to comment when he said he'll go back there to get another bowl. yea..and he came back with another mee pok. couldn't believe that he forgot that i didn't want it..he himself also was shocked that he forgot (duh)... anyway, while i was waiting for him, i was conjuring images of the nice hot soupy prawn noodles... then, it's gone again.
told him he's got early dementia... and he actually agreed.

well, went cold storage and NTUC to buy my stuff and took bus home while naz dropped halfway to take the train back home...

and again, supposed to mug jap but ended up watching the new TVB serial on scv.. starring guo1 jin4 an1..and flora chan... nice..!.something about solving crimes by using "back to the future" techniques....errr..i also don't have much clue..haiya..again..hard to describe..just know it's quite exciting.. only episode 3, will have chance to find out more..

14/8/05: fireworks by the bay

above are the feet of the 2 hitos who were at the firworks!
met naz at marina bay control at about 5.10pm.. was abit late (according to naz..i'm very very late).. coz zhen drove bec and her mum to the airport after the east coast thingy and dropped me at changi to take the train to marina bay..was a long drowsy ride after a day out at the beach.

anways, naz forewarned me that the control was crowded with people.. yes it was. followed the crowd and took the bus to the carnival..we stopped at this stop which we tot was the carnival and realised it was the kid's central carnival. erm.wrong age and place. got on the bus again and alighted awhile after.. we got waved to go into this mini stadium to watch some NDP lookalike performances with formations, parachutes and all... boring.. so we left after 5 min.

saw on the map got some food carnival thingy and decided to head there instead..hehe..tried this monster ice thingy as u can see from the pic...mango ice! it was real mangoes and sherbet...it was so so good.. think can fight with xu liu shan... this one got more mangoes.. the uncle asked us if we wanted small or large...we couldn't decide n duh.of coz he tried to sell the large one..say it's just nice for 2 pple. and it was really too huge..but we finished it anyways coz it was all mangoes..! i love mangoes. sedap.


walked around the place...after taking a few pics here and there with some art pics at the "arts village" and amused ourselves, we decided to plonk our butts by the river to wait for the fireworks to starto.. amazed at how many people were there with tripods and SLRs all ready to shoot the fireworks.. they were there dunno at what time to chope good places for photo taking. haha..din know that so many singaporeans are interested in photography.

while waiting for the show to start, we started taking da1 tou2 tie1 of ourselves and that's how the above "feet pic" came about.. tested all the different modes of my camera and there's this fireworks mode which i used for taking the fireworks pics! the show started and my god..it was a spectacular display of fireworks... think the government had over the years, been more and more generous with fireworks displays...which is good for us! it's free! haha... this was one of the better pics i managed to capture...kirei ne. the rest i filmed it in video mode.. which..sadly, i can't upload it here.. my favourite was the fireworks which resembled multi colored halos in the sky... like disappearing and appearing... (ok.. tink abit difficult to describe here...)..

in all!! it was so well worth the effort to make the trip there... it was simply too beautiful to be described in words... naz was amazed by it too and till we were on our way home, we were still talking about it. haha. abit sua ku...

found out the next day that ahmad was there too watching the fireworks....hehz..

~~ life is just like a fireworks display. short but impressionable. enjoy it while it lasts. but do not worry, even when it's gone, there'll still be memories to fall back upon.~~~

blog marathon: nichi yobi 14/8/05- East Coast dog walk


..met up w zhen, bec, supei at east coast today.. was raining heavily and luckily subsided when i reached there... zhen''s babies were welping due to the rain and sound like they're crying..hah.. brought them for a walk along the beach and they were so hyper active..esp mousedeer. kaoz..never ending energy. tink if you want to lose weight, it's best to buy a doggie and must be a jack russell... u won't be walking them lor. they'll be walking you.!

well, thought mac's is the normal meeting place but apparently, there was miscomm. weizhen was at the near bedok jetty side of the beach where the hawker centre is. kaoz.it's dam far!! and it was drizzling abit.. rented a bike at $5/hr...so bloody ex.. urgh. rode there n rode back to return 1 hr later...and i had to walk back the same hawker centre when i returned the bike. how dumb..should have not rented the bike in the 1st place..!! while i was walking back. (alone!), all the kiosks asked me if i wanted a bike.. i said no (of coz. i jus returned the bike lor)... sad case.. i must have looked very tired and sweaty. hmm.

great to have met up w bec...haven seen her in awhile...she'll be going denmark for a biz trip (family biz..how lucky!) for a couple of weeks...so fuN! i wanna holiday tooooo. then supei will be going UK too....yokatta ne. ii ne. meanwhile, shall just dream abit first la.

left at around 3 plus..sticky from the humidity and rain....

to be continued..................................................

photo coming later! keep a look out!

eve's bday chalet on 13/8..


chalet was at coasta sands at pasir ris...hah..good near my house ne... but my r/s w eve is weird (ok..dun tink crooked..).. she's considered actually the only true Uni friend i've made in NUS.. as in we go trekking and still meet up after we graduated.. like other orientation mates..never really kept in contact ever since we left uni... ahah..i always tell her... omigod..i'm so anti social..only made 1 fren in uni!! but it's really ok.. .. i believe in making few but true friends..!

it was her 26th bday..and happily i wrote on her card " happy sweet 24th!".. kaoz..she spotted the mistake immediately (duh) and told me..shucks..paiseh lo..hahahhah..never mind la..make her sound younger.. used to thinking everyone is the same age as me...

coz i dun really know her other friends at the chalet, decided to ask naz to go with me and just nice he's free after exam that day! yeh...met him at ang mo kio and we gelek awhile there and nothing interesting to do and i refused to tell him where's the arcade coz i dun want to wait for him for like 1/2hr (he's quite good at it lor...$1 can play dam long) to kill the monster. left for the chalet pretty soon coz eve kept chasing me to go asap coz food was ready.. chope chope took bus 88 to pasir ris.. not really chope chope coz the bus trip took quite long..giddy. when we reached pasir ris, already groggy . .. we looked around wat bus to take to the chalet..tot was 403..but naz pointed out bus 358 also goes. so. we took 358... and it was wrong!! ended up walked a long way to the chalet..lots of exercising. .. cannot make it leh..always go out w him and end up either dropped at wrong mrt station, take wrong bus or alight at wrong stop. dunno it's i suay or he suay.

found out why she kept chasing me to go earlier..coz many pple fly her aeroplane and all not coming for her chalet... so poor thing and she spent the whole noon frying fishballs n fish fillets n chicken wings n beehoon...lots of food n noone to eat. haha.. din eat much anyways coz wasn't hungry.. gave eve her purezento..bought her a wallet...and guess what! she needs a wallet! yeh....telepathy..she was so shocked i bought her one...coz she didn't tell me. the mango wallet was real nice lor..till i wanted to keep for myself...better quickly give her b4 i zhan4 wei2 ji2 you2.. always happy to see that ppl like the presents i give them...sense of achievement!

stayed till about 9 plus 10...and bid sayonara.. on our way out to the mrt..naz pointed out the tofu car seen in initial D! exactly the same as the one in the movie! with the stickers etc and the model of the car is same AE80 i think. cool! checked that coast is clear b4 asking naz to help me take a pic with the car...paiseh leh..praying that the owner is not around.haha..

eeeehh..try to see if can upload the pic.hehe..cheap thrill... (haha..the pic looks abit freaky n sneaky.!! eeeks...resolution is lousy..coz nite pic)

reached home and realised i left the new photo album i bought in naz's bag! always like that... i was just telling myself i seemed to have forgotten something..and i really did.. ALWAYS.. itsumo desu yO!...

after our "tennis" session (subconsciously I still imagine i had played tennis coz i was looking forward to it the whole day lor..), we had a mini BT discussion session as usual (wonder when this will cease to be a routine topic of discussion for us...well..i see no end in the near future...)we had oishii healthy home-cooked meal at shan's house...me and maria totally craves for home cooked meals since we eat out most of the time.... yummy. then...TV time! me and maria were just waiting for tan2 pan4 zhuan jia to start...last epi... while ahmad dolled up for her date.. halfway through the show, ahmad pang4 seh1 us.!.and left us in her own house.. ok la..we wish her all the best.. haha. so me and maria helped ourself macham we're in our own house.. haha

(ok..dun puke..)..anywayz! nice song..! by 张智成。。 i support piracy one..so please all go and download..

很想妳
曲:余哲函 詞:施人誠

妳 在那裡 這些年來如意不如意
還快樂 還單純 還美麗 時光如何對妳

我 在這裡 人海中一座島嶼
很平靜 風平浪靜
只除了深夜裡 回憶會瘋狂來襲

我很想妳 妳知道嗎
如果可以 就讓我再見妳
美好微笑 清澈眼睛
好確定那場分離只毀了我一個而已

我很想妳 聽見了嗎 woo...
這是唯一 我無解的困境
那些過去 不肯過去
不管我後來遇見多少人
只能嘆息 都不是妳

我 在那裡 妳會不會偶爾好奇
有沒有 曾經懷疑
我說我會忘記 只是種好意 都不是妳 我只想愛妳

aren't you glad that this is probably going to be my last post on superstars?? esp sharon san, who probably reads my blog faithfully but perpetually scratching her head, rolling her eyes and cursing me for writing a chunks of stuff she doesnn't understand.

.. just couldn't sleep without writing something on this..
hmm..was thinking maybe coz i saw weicong today that's why brought bad luck to my weijian..?!!?.. ok..i'm thinking too much... time to sleep!!!

Ubin~back to the trees, water and flowers..

went ubin to cycle w naz that day! weather was good and alls... waaa..the changi ferry terminal has been upgraded to a pro, clean ferry terminal...half a year ago when i went there itwasn't there at all lo... lucky the ferry tix still the same...$2 there n $2 back..yasui ne.

saw a dam cute boy on the ferry with super huge eyes,with eyelashes curling till almost touching the eyebrows lor! kaoz..envyz... we still have to clip like crazy to make it curl. naz said he should be enrolled into modelling class...i totally agree!

cycling was good...just that some parts of the hilly n steep parts, i nearly dieded from fatigue..tak buleh tahan got down to push bike..while naz continued to be gungho and chiong all the way...busy waving at me and giving me the "oei..why you so lousy..cycle la." kinda look. too tired to bother....pushing bike rawks.

TADA! highlight of the day! rambutan trees! must be in season now..everywhere was hong mao dan! haven seen them b4 and took super many pics... check this out..looks fake hor..dun look like rambutans to me...wasted that the trees were too tall...can't pluck them.
Another place which we found was this quarry.... fantastic view and the waters are turqoise!! kirei ne! click!
ended our trip with a cooling coconut drink... for naz, 2 coconut drinks.

$$ spent, banished back to majulah singapura


my long awaited KL trip was here and gone.. looking forward since 2 weeks ago and it's over already. dam fast. so is my AL. all gone. nan demo nai. nai.nai.

*recap of day01 of the trip*

woke up at 5.45am..zhe said her dad will pick me up at 6.30am... so bathed and last minute packing and stuffed my toothbrush into my bag. very tired coz chatted on MSN till 1 plus 2 the night b4 lo.. lack of beauty sleep.. zhe came at about 6.45am..waited till i dozed off and awoken by my phone's ringtone.

we reached golden mile at 7.10am...early and bright with lots of people waiting around for the coaches.. think like everyone is going malaysia. glanced at the destination chart hung on the wall of the agency... and found out that they cater trips to those small ulu towns in m'sia, never heard b4 ones.... like those mentioned in PCK..batu pahat..or patu pahat... yawns.. sleepy

got on the bus (oops..should be coach. bus like more off-form..not so pro) and thank god.it was super spacious and seats were very comfy... yeah. trip there seemed quite long coz when we reached outskirts of KL, there was a huge jam. whole of singapore must be in KL for the national day long holiday (what an irony).. anyways, jam to pudu raya was so bad that we just alighted and walked to the bus station instead..faster. this indian cab driver asked us where we wanted to go.. told him federal hotel, he said in horrible indian ascent.. whheerrriz fare-der-rrral?...dang. then he pointed to 4 of us... "$50,$50 , $50, $50. ..each!" siao! we walked away n took another cab..

chop chop.. no time to waste, left our bags at hotel, nua abits and went to this place called tong2 luo2 wan1 to makan.... sells hongkie food...yummy..shui jiao mian is nice.. huge dumplings.. and the curry fishballs.. had "pantyhose milk tea" (direct translation)... niceee. reminds me of ah mei1's milk tea at Arcade.. we were sitting on the 2nd deck of the restaurant and suddenly zhe's sister pointed excitedly downstairs thru the gaps of the fences, "ehhh! it's michelle chia... with the boyfriend (xiao xin !).." we were so excited like "who who??" then when she said that we were like..."oorh..cheh. eh..waa..they rendevous ah? she like not very pretty hor? so small size... aiya..xiao xin's face face the other way..wasted...i wan2 see leh.." went on until our food came..we directed our attention on the tabemono..

shopped at this mall (sungei wang!..suddenly remembered)..so many lanes and totally luan4 layout..but got wide variety of shops! sale everywhere..... walk until giddy and yan2 hua1 liao2 luan4... chop chop finish shopping at about 9 plus..go back hotel..left our stuff and went to the famous food street to makan.. tink shopped too much..dementia..can't remember names of streets and the malls.. wahhaha. ordered kangkong, lala, BBQ chicken wings and satay! it was good..all the food..! maybe we were hungry also... the johan satay is famous one i tink..
...passed by gelato and bought kinder bueno ice cream!...burps. FULL

*day02*
zhe brought her students' assignments to mark n marked till like 2am and she woke up at like 7 am...she's mad! haiz..but she say she's used to it le..coz teacher ma. poor thing. her panda rings getting worse.. kiotsukete kudasai! while me...slept like a ***. ..neng shui4 shi fu2.
wanted to go back to the tong luo wan to makan but they open dam late..so we went to another hongkie eating place..we felt super hongkie there lor...the food not bad...chu qian yi ding noodles +luncheon meat+ egg +vege.... best combination.

then!! i received an sms from waty about sms-ing her when i reach KL... had mentioned to her b4 im going KL b4 she left... happily sms her back arranging whether can meet her at KLCC for a drink or something...cheh! she's not in KL @ that time lor...:( not fated i guess..

checked out at 12pm and took cab to KLCC... that place was unbelieveably crowded. we have to Q to go up every escalator like peak period @MRT stations. sianz.. stuff there very high end also...partly we were tired of shopping also..so just browse around and took cab to pudu raya..massive jaaaammmm. the real gungho cabby tried to make an illegal U turn to shorten the route...and jus as the car was about to tuuurnn.... the stupid traffic police came! shitt. waved us to go the normal route... SIAN. BUT the cabby took another illegal u turn somewhere down the road again..keke. my ou xiang...brave indo cabby.

coach was on time and we saw bryan wang lu jian at one of the toilet stops... he smokes. eeeks. okie..so does many others. i'm the first one to clap when they released news about the official banning of smoking in kopitiams... yeah.yeah.yeah.who cares about the old ah peks, shaking legs with singlets la-ing kopi, smoking there.

pics coming soon... when i got time.....ahhhhh. jap exams coming...!!!!

prOject superstarS- a cOmplaint!!

waaa..used to like that li weisong..thought that his comments not bad lo..quite to the point and relevant..better than the rest of the judges (dawn yip shld save herself first b4 commenting on their fashion sense....)... today!! my weijian sang so well and he gave only 6 pts....then that burning flame jason he give 6pts also! can he give like 5.5 , 5.6, 5.7 pts anot...why must give zhun zhun 6 pts! that's saying that derrick =same standard as jason?!!??! zutto chigaimasu yo!!! his eyes paste stamp..haiz.. think besides that CMI silver ( wo hai bronze, gold and iron lor), think mayb jason also got pay that weisong.

anyways, that jason really CMI also.. his dance moves are so monkey like...jump here jump there as if he's still young.. rather he sit on a chair to sing, like dat he can focus on his vocals rather than his or-bit moves. can you imagine, he's focusing so hard already and his moves still appear to audience as or-bit.....

then, weilian ah...his voice is really too nasal..listen too much becomes quite boring n predictable. thought in the intro video he said he wants to get out of the nasal vocals and make some changes... i thought "hmmm..good good" .alas. alas. turned out it was exceptionally more nasal than usual!!! waaaa...hopes dashed. as i've told anna, the song he sang until he sound like he's standing on a sampan rowing a boat along china's yellow river.... though technique is there...eettoo...

junyang is not bad la...but sleeping leh his voice... lullabyyyee... not as full of emotions and got te4 se4 like derrick.. anna also thinks that his legs are short n looks funny.. ...which i agree. i also complained to anna that his turning of body side to side makes me very giddy. though he's trying to look relaxed and like he's "enjoying" the song.. *side note: dunno why the judges like to say the same stuff like... " ni chang4 de hen2 hao3, ke3 shi4 hao3 xiang4 bu4 gou4 enjoy..."*
somehow sounds more cool or angmo by mixing an english word in a chinese sentence.. like what HK artistes like to do.

and one last thing, about the host, wang jianfu4... think he should be the first to be voted out.

jap class or superstars

went to the doc today for sore throat..when i reached there, was glad to see that only 2 people waiting there. yeah,..my turn will come soon.. waited..flipping one magazines after another and realised that 1 hour had passed and i'm still the next in queue...another 15 min before i finally hear my name being called..phew..when i saw the doc, i knew why the few in front took so long.. this doc is really very slooow...okie.. if you put it in a nice way, he is very detailed and careful in making a diagnosis. I said i had a sore throat, he not only checked the throat, he took my heart beat (front and back of the body) , measured my tempature and took my pressure.. maybe all the other docs i went to are too slipshot..and not that this doc is overly careful..hah..but thats good la.. he never check long enough we complain, when he do a thorough check we also complain..

wednesday is a day when i'll sit down on my bed and spend at least 10min pondering whether i should go for class.. why must shows like american idol, superstars always show on wed nights?! so many nights to choose from..doshite wed? tink today i shall go la..since kitahara san said he'll be giving us forms to apply for end of year JLPT3.... scary...kowaiiiiiii!(>.<)

going to prepare my dinner now..tink i'll have some bread for dinner...with tuna..lazy to eat out also... till then, ja mata ne..

Hassle free way of folding T shirts

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

Poem to read Only when you're bored


Life's so short that u can't afford
To waste moments which can't be clocked

Seize the day,easy to say
More often we fall prey
To brainless routines of the day

Without much ado, complain
Heave and sigh, what a pain

Crawling time makes us moody
Also means we are so free of work and worries
To be able to count time is a good thing

Wish that I can be one of the characters
In my fave stephen chow's flick
Simple with dance moves so chic
Kungfu Hustle I totally love it!

Digressing seems to be my habit
Never ever changed a bit
Thanks to my pals who have put up with me
Rolling of eyes kept to the very least.

Writing terrible poems seem to me
The best way to fight boredom
As I try pathetically to ryhme and be on beat
Its time to close my Sibs.
