xmas & friends

This december, filled with activities and even before my exam ended, orchard rd is already all dressed up for xmas with the lights and trees.



313 somerset dinner at simply chilli with lydia and hy.



oh this.
woon asked mi to help in her fyp campaign, so ya. i told her no naked pictures and only knew on that day that she dressed me up in skimpy singlet and XS boxers.






Gift exchange with Agnes and PX at cozway pt



I've got a nice notebook/organiser and spiderman towel!





Xmas eve was with great company but bad food at Hooked! (a seafood restaurant at rail mall)
look at my expression and u'll know
one of the worst restaurants i've been to. expensive, small portion and unfresh. totally spoilt the xmas eve if not for the friends.





second part was better, we walked to prata shop for more satisfying round then went to cafe iguana and magaritas!
we played pictionary and sharades (if its spelt that way) and had fun!
reached home at 5am. ha.

Near-end december's more than a roller coaster for me, twisting and turning at different planes and directions, an emotional theme park.

had a lot on my mind, i had loads of fun nevertheless, meeting up with friends from all around,
oh and cindy came back too!
i'm so glad she's back at this time.

anyway i'm flying off on tues nite!
great.
i have not bot my lugguage, not changed yen, not bot my warm clothes, not bot my shower stuff and not packed.

yay. i'm captain last-minute.

choice

"The words were faint, trailing off into blank emptiness as he left, too. And I was alone.

So much better. Now I could hear the faint rustle of the matted leaves beneath my toenails, the whisper of an owl’s wings above me, the ocean — far, far in the west — moaning against the beach. Hear this,and nothing more. Feel nothing but speed, nothing but the pull of muscle, sinew, and bone, working together in harmony as the miles disappeared behind me.

If the silence in my head lasted, I would never go back. I wouldn’t be the first one to choose this form over the other. Maybe, if I ran far enough away, I would never have to hear again...

I pushed my legs faster, letting Jacob Black disappear behind me."

twilight series

I've been spoiling my eyes by reading the twilight series in my com.
yes 4 books on pdf.

so if u wanna spoil your eyes together with me, haha ask me!

Friday, December 18, 2009

ok this started after i watched new moon, which i tot was quite a lousy movie until i watched it a second time then i felt it was okay.

then i got to know this guy taylor lautner who's jacob black.

i just can't believe he's only 17 years old, and he's the hottest guy in hollywood and everybody just wants him,
he's been on like almost every magazine cover.. rolling stones.. teen vougue... mens health...
and he's onli like 17!! and he has this perfect life that i've been wishing to pursue but i just can't.

17, millionaire and counting, hot bod, drives a audi R8 and everybody loves him.
he's like so mature, down to earth, no airs at all kind, and he acted in twilight when he's 16!!
imagine 16 yo and earning millions already. and he also works very hard for the movie.

and where were we at 16, 17 yo?! in first 3 months NJC playing stupid orientation games and struggling in school.
i mean what a lousy life we had as compared to him and we aint getting anything out of life yet.

and now where are we? going to be 23 and still struggling with life and school and everything, while he had it all already. the perfect life and the biggest potential in movies biz. in fact he dun need to work for the rest of his life already.

then i traced back all his past. he also attended school at michigan when he's young and often flies out to LA for auditions and stuff, and then his family decide to move to LA coz he wanted to go into acting and its is more convenient for him to go for auditions in LA. then he got this role of twilight and then he got famous.

and he got more famous when he worked out for like 1 year to get into shape in new moon and booms, no. 1 international superstar instantly because of new moon

it feels to me that everybody can do or become the same thing, just that we dun haf the capacity to do it.

firstly is the money. after filming twilight i guess he got loads on money so he can hire a personal trainer to train him and control his diet. he has to eat like every 2 hrs, stuff like meat patties, almonds, sweet potatoes, and protein shakes.
i think all these will cost like 100k a year, which we do not even have.
like i've been also traning hard to lose fats and gain muscles kinda stuff, but i just dun haf the capacity to reach his level.

secondly is the time. look at us. we are like what? studying and studying just to get a cert while he works out to get even more money than us. and he dun need to do much and earn more than us. and he has the motivation to do that. unlike us.

thirdly we dun live in america, or LA.
we are stuck in this small island where there is practically no market.
true, we are small and secure, unlike US which is so dangerous and all, and we do not have families who supports us by moving into LA.

then i come to ask.
why are we different?
why are we born to have different capacity?
who or what controls our destiny?
why dont we get born in US or into his family?
why are we not even close to living his life?

as a human, i suppose he's no different from me, except for looks. he's also not tall like really tall, just 4cm taller than me, and we'r both aquarius.
aquarians are known to be versatile, have one of the best personalities and good potential to be in showbiz.

and then there's this moment of time i kept asking why can't i sleep tonight... and wake up to become taylor lautner in the morning.
ya i know it sounds stupid, i just dun understand why we'r born and set on this course of life.

i dunno if u believe in past life, but i think i lived in US for my past life so thats why i feel a strong attraction to US. sometimes i can't wait to know what holds for me in my next life, i feel that it'll be at least better than now, but ya i wun do anything stupid like kill myself or what la.

like what i said in my blog, i really lost my sense of direction, i dunno what i'm fighting for in life anymore. and whenever i think of taylor's life, i kept thinking why am i such a loser and still stuck here torturing myself. could i have more to fulfill my dream and my own perfect life and simply do what i love to do like him?

mayb i sorta lost my aim in life after the exams and start thinking about such things when i'm nua-ing and doing simply nothing at home but rot... while taylor's earning big bucks every hour.

plain lazy

Sometimes i aim for something but i'm just plain lazy to do it.

like i said i'm gonna run 3 times a week but i haven done so for about a month and i'm just lazy and lethargic and my mind tells me that i do not have the mood too.
especially after exams when there's no reason to torture myself anymore.

well setting a goal helps a little but it all depends on my self discipline and schedule. even so when the actual finishing line's like far far away, my mindset sways and becomes complacent at a little improvement.
i guess i just dun have a strong mind and discipline to finish up stuff, even when i know it's for my own benefit.

another example's like i'll tell myself to wake up at 10.30 every morning but when i open my eyes at 10.30 and tell myself there's nothing to do at 10.30 and goes back to sleep till 11.30.

i'm just plain plain lazy. -_-
any helps to get this lazy bug off me?

new moon

after one month of not very intense mugging and staying at home except to go to school for exams, the end of it marks the start of my going out and playing days!



first movie i watched for a long time was New Moon, yesterday, plus celebrate hiang's bdae.

ok New Moon is disappointing.
most of the exciting part were already shown in the trailer, which leaves no more new surprising element, and the storyline is like.... so ridiculous. i really dun understand how the story builds and important turning points are not amplified, it's so weird!
its also quite boring and fighting parts are not as exciting, dakota fannings is good as usual.
so morale of the story: dun shoot the movie based on line of the storybook.
sometimes it's actually not the director or scripwriter's fault coz they wanted to stay close and true to the storybook.
ok some pictures are actually quite beautiful and they'r consistent throughout the movie.

oh and the guy playing jacob is only like 17 yo!!! OMG! 17 yo earning millions and driving a porche... hm.. where was i at 17?!
it's like freezing cold or rainning and he's running around in juz a pair of half demins and there's one scene where they'r speaking with mist coming out of their breath and he's onli in his half demins. poor him.

time for another show: avatar!

yay! i'm gonna do all the post exams stuff!

weird day and dream

i had the weirdest dream last nite!

its just one of those things i keep hidding at the corner of my brain and just suddenly turned into something that seems so real. it really scares the hell out of me sometimes.

it has been a rough but kinda smooth ride. haha what a description.

Completed my accounting presentation, done with kinematics quiz, finished up with tech comm presentation and assignment, almost done catching up on subjects.
and i discovered something surprising yesterday nite while toking to an ex hallmate. HAHA.

today is such a weird day.
my ex hallmate whom i haven been toking for a while suddenly came along on msn and turned into a conversation.
on the bus way to school saw my nj fren who i also haven saw and tok to for a while and we chat on the bus.
i rarely lunch at Can B and saw another frend whom i haven't met b4 in school. haha.

suddenly all the chattable friends but lesser contact reappear.

what a weird day.

insomnia

i've been having insomnia for a few days in a row when i tried to sleep at around 1+ but i'm still awake rolling on the bed at 3.30am.

Some studies said to clear your head of thoughts 10-20 minutes before you go to bed so that you will have a good sleep. i think i think too much when i'm in bed. even when i'm sleeping i keep having this feeling i'm not really asleep coz i am dreaming all the way till morning. and i study right before bed.

I really need to study and catch up to hang on to my gpa or improve. Exam's coming in a months time, i'm still unclear about stuff.

I dunno about others but when i study, especially engine cores where knowledge comes in the form of formulas, numbers, equations, technical explanations, science, phyics, i tend to cut off the emotional side of myself. basically i'm using the left brain coz left side processes logical data.

so to do well in exams this have to continue for a few weeks and i'm beginning to lose the other side of me (i.e. the right brain) and become like a robot or walking calculator that makes practical and logical decisions instead of risk-taking and impulsive choices.

an example: to eat ice cream or not.
right side says: no. fattening. distracting.
left sides says: oh man i'm missing ice cream for weeks now. ben and jerry's. one scoop wun do harm. and i need desserts after meals.

it's like i watch gossip girls w/o the reactions i had when i watch the previous season or watch GIJOE w/o the excitment. and it's scares me! i'm like staring blankly at the screen, a robot watching something.

ya so i'm trying to get the left side to work more when i'm in bed so that i wun lose that side of me, while i'm using the right side to work during the day.

i really think emotions are really important and that makes us human. Recollection of the kinda emotions i have at that certain period of time is relavant, and i need to get that back after exams quickly so i can enjoy!

so till then, forgive me if i'm too analytical, practical and emotionless. it's the right side of the brain. haha

(500) days of Summer



One of the best romantic comedy i've watched, i'm still thinking about it even after 1 week.
it's really really nice and clever, the sequence of the movie, movie pictures.. etc
well its not a movie for retards coz they'll think it's a bad movie coz they dun understand what its all about.

some quotes from the movie:
Tom: What happens when you fall in love?
Summer: You believe in that?
Tom: It's love, it's not Santa Claus.

ok i think i'm gonna watch it again!

This movie really made me a little depressed.
We watched it right after the wedding (previous post) and i had some sort of the 'wedding' talk with geri and gang.
i'm sort of similar to the lead, Tom Hansen, a plain regular guy who believes in fate and waiting for the right girl to come.

and in reality more and more friends are getting attached now(even those whom i tot wouldn't) and even getting married
and i'm like.... still single and waiting for love to come?!

oh man!!!!
should i start to panic now?!?!

宅ness

dear blog i have no neglected you but same old reason: i've been very bz in school.

well the catching-up on work is almost done, with quizzes ongoing almost everyday this week, the rest is up to recess week.
that's the price u pay for not doing tutorials punctually although u attend lectures. hope it'll be better after recess, if not i'm really done for.

we have not really met up with kiat after he came back so last friday we had dinner at relish, good burgers (but i dunno if they enjoyed it) and cozy place!
we precelebrated kenny's bdae and farewell for kiat. he's flying off to UK again in a weeks time!



yes, i do admit this is a really zhai picture coz i had my buttons up and schoolbag.
my plaid shirt came all the way from hong kong. i was eyeing it in tw but it was like sgd80+ and waiyin got it for sgd30 there! woohoo! it was on 50% off.



and the most irritating thing is, since i-dunno-when they started calling me ah zhai coz i am a Zhai Nan!?!??!

WHAT?!?!?!! ME = AH ZHAI 阿宅!??!

i admit, i do love gundams and lego, anime and comics, spidey and transformers all that.. but isn't that most guys love?!?! is that a 宅 thing?!

so ridiculus!!!

how i be labelled as 宅 when i dun spend hours playing soccer games or checking soccer news or play facebook mousehunting games like my 2 roomates!??! and i know more people who dun have a life on weekends coz they dun go out!

yes, i go online a lot coz i need to do work, research, facebook, check emails, and most of all watch gossip girls and online shopping!! do 宅 people watch gossip girls and online shopping!??!! arghhhh

there are so many 宅-er people than me i can't bliff their standard of 宅 is so low!!!
there's nothing wrong with being 宅 but i just can't bliff i'm labelled as one.

Disney's Marvel

I CAN'T BLIFF ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

woon told mi about the acquisition of Marvel by Disney and i still CAN'T BELIEVE IT MAN!!!

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

DISNEY AND MARVEL!??!?!

HOW CAN U RELATE THEM TOGETHER?!?!?!?

IT'S LIKE SAYING SPIDERMAN AND MICKEY TOGETHER!!!!!

HOW CAN IT BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

MY MARVELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

I DO NOT WANT TO SEE THE DISNEY LOGO ON MY MARVEL COMICS!!!!!!!

I DO NOT WANT TO SEE LITTLE MERMAID MARRY DAREDEVIL!!!!!!!!!!!

I DO NOT WANT TO SEE THE WALT DISNEY ANIMATION BEFORE IRON MAN 2 MOVIE!!!!!!!!!

I DO NOT WANNA INCLUDE A WALT DISNEY LOGO ON MY BLOGSKIN!!!

so after doing some research, i am a little relieved.

1) Marvel stays Marvel. Paying homage to "The Mouse"'s tendency to water down material for its family audience, Iger addressed the big worry. "There will be no Disneyfication of Marvel," he said in a press conference. He added that Marvel will continue to work independently. "We plan to keep Marvel as an entity and to respect both the talent that is there, working as one, and also respect what Marvel is and what the essence of Marvel is."

2) It's all about story and character. Twice in his address, Iger referred to the characters and storytelling in the Marvel universe. Later, he added that the studio behind Captain Jack Sparrow and Donald Duck recognizes good fictional talent when they see it. "It's a business we're very familiar with," Iger said. "Well-known characters and weird stories and a product that transcends gender and age and geographic territories."

3) For now, no Tony Stark's Haunted Mansion. During his morning address, Iger touted the possibilities of Disney's global resources to expand and tie in with Marvel. Later, he specified that Disney will respect previous Marvel deals. For example, Universal theme parks currently run Marvel-themed rides. Also, studios like Fox and Sony still distribute franchises like X-Men and Spider-Man, respectively. "There are also some legacy agreements that Marvel has in a variety of ways, to the theme park with Universal, to the distribution of the live-action films," Iger said. "So until some of these things work their course, or until we get a better sense when the deal closes, there isn't much planning that can be done until we reach an agreement."

4) Pixar is paving the way for Marvel. Remember when Disney thought they could do without Pixar? They were going to make their own version of Toy Story 3 and everything. Then they realized that only Pixar is Pixar. Well, same with Marvel. Iger even brought in John Lasseter to help him make the case to Marvel. "There is a whole culture attached that was a huge part of their success, and I didn't want to do anything that messed with that culture," Iger said. "I had John Lasseter [talk to Marvel] with me and then without me, so that he could talk to them more about Disney. He gave them some perspective on that, and it was very positive."

5) As Hannah Montana says, "It's the best of both worlds." Rather than harp on potential conflicts, edgy subtext vs. lucrative merchandising, etc., Iger focused on the potential for pooling Marvel and Disney resources. They already travel the same ground in creating story and characters for movies, television, literature and more. "When you look at it as a part of the Walt Disney Co., the presence of Marvel is virtually in everything that we're in," Iger said. "You can expect that over time, that's what you will see. We became impressed with the talent of Marvel as we got to know them better."

i guess marvel really needs a media powerhouse to finance its movies.

i am not drinking alcohol ever again.

haircut and ice cream

Chapter 2 gave me a new hairstyle again.
i've been visiting C2 for quite some time now coz i always have $10 discount voucher from my school's goodie bag which i've ran out of it now. so anyway i went with steph and chius coz they wanted to cut their hair too but i ended up being the only one who had a haircut. they changed their mind coz they dun haf the cut-hair-mood. -_- girls.

before that i think i had the longest fringe of all time, can touch my nose with it and it keeps covering my right eye. it irritates me the most when i'm in lecture and reading notes coz it keep dropping and poking my eye. i can't concentrate at all!!

zheng nian's was also as long as mine, we keep swinging our hair back and he said we look like Aunty Lucy. *so embarassing*.

i wanted to get a short and neat haircut to prepare for ber's wedding! ha, so now it's quite neat and not really THAT short. i hope its still presentable in a months time!

i can't get used to the new haircut, probably coz i din had a parting as my stylist said, and it's black again! she cut off all my brown bits, left a lil bit on the fringe. its all styled to the front but after a while i tot it looks not bad and i dun hafta really style it. looks nice naturally.

oh wells. meet me to see.

so i've been indulging in very fattening desserts the past few days. but it's my fav! ICE CREAM.

1. Marble Slab Creamery

we went to ilumna to eat marble slab icecream! the freshest ice cream on earth (as they claimed) hails all the way from US, franchised here.

check it out!
http://www.marbleslab.com/

it's really nice, but very very pricey!!!

2. U.D.D.E.R.S

they had a stop at bukit timah, opens till 12midnite everyday! yay!
and it's REALLY NICEEEEEE. one of the best local ice cream i've ever eaten and a large range of flavours to choose from! from D24 Durian to Gila Melaka, to alcoholic flavours Java Whiskey Choc, Orange Choc Bitters and the nicest Tira-miss-u.
Warning: strong alcohol content.

too bad they dun haf my fav blackforest at that time.

highly recommended. price wise still acceptable!
http://www.udders.com.sg/home

3. Pukka

Every week pukka once. the first time we went it was 4 mins after their closing time and we had to bluff them we came all the way from bedok so that they will let us in. hahah. they did nevertheless. oh it's just beside the prata shop at NUS, and they extended opening hours to 1am! woohoo!

i love their cheesecake ice cream coz it's really rich. and they give really HUGE balls in your cup.
real value for money coz it's 2.50 per scoop and u get a HUGE one.

onli thing is they have limited range of flavours.

http://www.pukkatukka.com.sg/

eat and eat and eat and get fat.
ok time to rush my tutorials and lab report.

already gone

this is the song of the year!



Already Gone by one of my fav Kelly Clarkson, but too bad the video's not the full one, it stops some place. cowritten and produced by timbaland's Ryan Tedder.

listen carefully to the background composition.
Begins with drums and a string emsemble mostly violins, which is my fav sound for any background music!
do u know that violins resembles most to a human voice? so it fits perfectly to emo songs.
kelly's voice sets in with a lot of air and echo, to make it a ghastly feel.

Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye (echo echo echo)

Even with our fists held high
It never would've worked out right
We were never meant for do or die

I didn't want us to burn out (notice the falsetto change!)
I didn't come here to hold you, now I can't stop

(lotsa echo)
I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road someone's gotta go
And I want you to know you couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on so I'm already gone

Looking at you makes it harder
But I know that you'll find another
That doesn't always make you want to cry

(electric guitar comes in!)
Started with a perfect kiss then we could feel the poison set in
Perfect couldn't keep this love alive
You know that I love you so, I love you enough to let you go

(violins comes in again!)
I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road someone's gotta go
And I want you to know
you couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on
so I'm already gone....

(My fav part of the song, where all the background vocals comes in for the first time to blend into a heavenly chorus)
I'm already gone, already gone
You can't make it feel right when you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on so I'm already gone...

(drums stops, violins and voices perfect combination)
Already gone, already gone, already gone...
(a crescendo from 'oo' to 'aa' vowel, the voice makes a crisp clean expression)
Already gone, already gone, already gone, yeah

Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye

(video ends here but there's one more chorus)

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road someone's gotta go
And I want you to know you couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on so I'm already gone

I'm already gone, already gone
You can't make it feel right when you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on so I'm already gone

incomplete

so weekends are really for emo purposes.

i can't believe i wasted the whole weekend doing NOTHING at all.
initally i planned to
1. start on my lab project,
2. then finish my already-dued tutorials
3. and my current tutorials,
4. catch up on fluids and mechanics of materials,
5. read up a bit on accounting.

and guess what, i completed none.
me - 0, the future F i'm getting - 5.

all i did was do dunno-what online and sleep and eat. ok i did some running and fat-losing exercises as well.

i wanted to start! but there's really no environment for mi to work with! stupid small table, no fan, no space and no brain. argh. i lost my sense of studying. or am i being complacent just because i got good grades from last year?

emo.. but i totally have no idea what i'm emo-ing about, so i can't really solve it. i just feel... emo. i guess it's the sort of guy's pms for me. just simply no mood to do anything. or issit something's messing with my head. or issit the start-school symdrome?

i have this calling inside me telling me to go for overseas exchange at US so that i can work there in the future. like what zhihui is doing. i guess i can restart there.

ok time to pack my bag for sch tmr. nites

e's friendship day

today, 20th august is officially my meet-and-make-friends friendship day. (didn't we had that friendship day in pri sch?)

first up i had technical communications class with new tutorial peeps and formed a new project group. made friends with 3 other coursemates.

then i met up with huiting and huiyu in school for lunch! only saw them for the second time since i came back frm tw. oh and saw mab too. well, i wished i could stay longer.

then met waiyin coz she helped mi get a 2% shirt in hk and i helped her get her 4g SD card from the school fair. and her friend chou chou.

next it's accounting seminar, we formed groups and got to know 4 other people in the class. i was the first to intro myself in the class coz the tutor told mi to, so my name was an impression to them. -.-

after school its sesame street outing with jansen, the first ever after mi and px came back! wah that's like so long la!
anyway les i'm really happy for u coz u finally got rid of the no-lifer. hahaha.
they ate KFC which is a taboo for me since i'm eating healthy for now. (except ice-cream) so in the end i went for a sandwich. then arcade, and their fav. pastime: camwhoring. ha



no i haven watch up!

1st week

i'm not being emo but the topic keep buzzing in my head like a buzzing bee. (ok bad description)

i mean at this age of 22 my character, personality are supposed to be settled down, but somebody or some people comes along and it's all rebooting over and over again until everythings so confusing. it's like reformatting computer over and over again until you forget what's s there and what's not there.

allmessedup. and now i can't really concentrate on more pressing issues until i get this settled... orr i can just ignore it? ok not.

ok first week is gone, the engine's started and it's time to get rollin'!

another fast paced semester coming right up.

man.

sometimes i just wish i stopped growing up.. or mayb keep growing up in a cycle. like frm 17 to 22, and back to 17 again, everytime a different environment.
and things wun get more and more difficult.

but this is life in uni. everything fast and efficient, time passes like nobody's business and ah ha u'r one year older. hahaha

ok i need to strike a balance.
weekdays are for studying. i can only emo on weekends coz there's no time to emo on weekdays. so school on weekdays, life on weekends. deal.

G.I.JOE



i almost forgot to blog abt it!
it's much better than transformers!

i remember watching G.I.Joe in pri school, i dun understand what it's all about but i onli like the fighting part with cobra. and cobra always runs away.

and now the LIVE ACTION MOVIE G.I.JOE!!
OMG it's the best movie this summer!

this is what i called ACTION PACKED, ALL THE WAY TO THE END!!
really left me a lil breathless. the graphics, the actions, the concept and ideas are really awesome!

the female lead was burning my eyes the moment she appears on screen. so hawt!
and poor snake-eyes did not even have a line in the movie. hahaha

this movie's gonna make channing tatum the next big thing.
i can't bliff nobody recognises him frm step up and she's the man! i remember him coz i watched step up with my cousin and she said she like the not-exactly-handsome-but-good-build kinda actor. well now all of the girls love him.

this is the kind of movie you will wanna watch in a cinema!
i hope the sequel will be good!

i wanna become a G.I.Joe when i grow up.
er.. haven't i? ok.

i wanna join the Joes next time!

first day in school

i died-ed on the first hour of school and the rest of the day i wasn't into the lecture.

the last wkend i went to Melaka (that will be in another post)
and it was a terrible jam the way back and i reached home at 1am without checking my timetable.. and after that realise i had to go school at 8.30am the next day!

i almost din wanna wake up man!

argh..........................
why does school have to start...................

and i am having very sucky timetable which includes ending school at 6.30 for 3 days and having 5hour lecture straight for 2 days.

i really missed my hall!!!

the thought of having to come back home everyday, without a proper room and bed and study table and materials and fan and quietness really SUCKS THE MAX!

i think i am the most pathetic guy in the school who doesn't have a quiet room to study and parents expect me to do well without a PROPER TABLE AND ROOM OF MY OWN!??!

HOW TO STUDY LIKE THAT?!?!

SUPER IRRITATING CAN.

i dunno how many times i must undergo this process over and over again.
pek cek.

Someday i might wanna move to the states to live.

Monday, August 03, 2009

now.

it's the time of my life again when it has became a plateau after ascending and descending several times.

Travel? Have done almost the whole of taiwan for 2 months, and planning another.

Shopping? Bought enough clothes (for the time being) and no need for more.

Technology? New handphone, no need for anymore upgrades.

Money? who wans to employ somebody who can onli work for a week!??!

Fun? requires money, refer to previous.

Lose fats? on the way, requires long time. and effort. and diet.

So this equates to staying at home and being online all the time, mayb i can concentrate on losing fats. although i have been exercising alternate days, i can't escape from the food that is pushed to my face that will equalise the calories i lost. haha.

and when i have nothing to do online, researching becomes my fav pastime. researching on what other fellow 22 year olds around the world are doing, what are their aims, what they have accomplished.
well, celebrities never miss the list to become the main researchees.

Jesse McCartney - same age as us, now already a famous song writer and singer in the states, with 3 great solo albums and ongoing acting stints. real accomplished.

Carrie Underwood - won american idol when she was 22. Superstar now with 2 great albums.

Lindsay Lohan - u know her. famous and infamous.

Shia Labeouf - acted in transformers when he's 22 and he's the next indianna jones. the star of tomorrow!

Sun Yanzi - first 2 hot-selling albums when she was 22. dun need to say anothing more about her rite.

Miley Cyrus - everyone knows her even b4 she's like 20? 16yo popular star, Cyrus was listed in Time magazine's 100 Most Influential People in The World. Forbes magazine ranked her #35 on "The Celebrity 100" list with earnings over $25 million in 2008.

ok after info on them the question u ask urself is 'what are you still doing sitting in front of the computer desk?'

firstly these people are really one in a hundred million. seriously! i mean there are so many people in america, why them?! it's really one in a hundred million! they dun pick people just off the streets or what, the probablility is super low.

secondly you gotta have what it takes. Jesse's talent, Carrie's vocals, Shia's personality.. thats what makes them.. them. and if u think u can become one of them, so does the rest of the hundred million people. and u can see so many wannabes on tv.

thirdly it is not gonna happen in singapore. u know.. the usual.. conservative asia thinking.. small market.. blah blah.

while they have probably millions in their bank accounts, dun envy, just be happy with what u have coz there are probably more people having no bank accounts at this age.

while 22yos in New york are slogging their life out trying to make things work in the city, which is almost the same situation as in Taipei, here we are, still staying under the umbrella of our parents.

well, we all r different 22 year olds but in sg, all of us are almost the same. life has already been somewhat planned for us.

when's the next turning point of life?
do you create it or simply wait?

movies and computers

i caught transformers in the theatre for a second time! it's still cool.

harry potter is not bad a movie, it has beautiful motion pictures.
Every scene can become a postcard or poster by itself but the storyline..erm... not up to standard.

i can't wait for G.I.JOE next wkend!! the trailer is really ultimate superb.

and they'r beginning production for Green Lantern!!
Casting Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan, he who acted as deadpool in xmen origins and hannibal king in blade trinity and he's coming up with an xmen spinoff: Deadpool.

He'll be the first actor who crossing both marvel and DC comics.
ulitmate coolness.

what i have been doing at home for the past few days:

1. watching retro movies like inidana jones series, blade etc after i finished gossip girls series and heroes series.

2. onlineing in facebook playing stupid games like spot the difference. with combination from movies, myopia just escalated by 50 degrees. great. -_-

3. running every alternate days to get my rusty gears ongoing like pre-tw. it just takes 2 months to destroy 3 years of running stamina.

4. riding on the great weather today i went swimming and tanned a little.

5. been snacking while movie-ing, 2 pints of ben n jerry's just like that, packet of chips, and brownies. shit. i think i ate back more than what i lost.

discovery travel and living

i came home from tw to find out that we have discovery: travel and living, which is now my favourite channel on TV!

so many interesting programs showing travels around the world, food and culture, living in different places and life tips. just now i was just watching hotels resorts beside beaches in US, one resort in vancouver island is specially built for customers to view the sea storms in their rooms and they prepared raincoats and boots for them in their cupboard. haha.

another hotel in caribbean prepares a seaside dinning with personal waiter for their clients.

all the comfort and beautiful views make me really wanna travel there now!
ok i shall make it a point to go to at least one of the hotels.

i absolutely LOVE discovery travel and living channel!!!!!

every morning i wake up at 11am to my favourite show on my favourite channel is Jon and Kate plus 8!

it's about jon and kate, all started with their pair of twins, then kate gave birth to sextuplets, 6 twins!!! and now they have 8 kids running around the house. the show shows how they handle the 8 kids, like how they feed them... how to handle the laundry.. how they use 5 luggages to pack for a 1 day trip. haha.

the kids are super cute! esp when u see them do their stuff and say cute stuff.

here's the first episode of the first season:

slacking

even before i came back to singapore, i already emailed my resume to kelly services, in hope of searching for a temp job while i was waiting for school to commence.

so far, i've got 2 calls, but i couldn't make it for both. the first one being low salary. the second one was actually quite ok, it was an admin job at stand chart, 7 per hr which was quite alright, but the timing wasn't. she called mi on a tuesday, and i had to start immediately the next day and i wasn't ready for a job yet!

not enuff rest, sleep.. and i wasn't ready to challenge the morning peak hours on the train... and.... i had a JB trip on friday which was planned long ago. so in the end i rejected it. bzzz

now regret is climbing up my nerves. like almost every friend is working and i've been lazing a lot at home... finishing gossip girls and i can't wait for the next season in sept! and now i'm finishing up heroes too. oh and i've been catching up a lot on my spiderman and fantastic four!! woohoo!!! i really miss them!!!
well hope i can get a temp job now to fill in the gaps.

toking abt the jb trip i really had a fruitful trip man!!! firstly i got the white basics that i've wanted from FOS and it was from abercrombie! love the fittings and it's 2 for 29RM!!! then we went to eat a lot of stuff, and i bot 2 shirts for 13RM each!!



can u bliff it?!?! it's quality shirt in a departmental store like metro!
hah it's really a steal and kkw is like laffing all the way. 1 shirt for 5.30SGD. haha

i think i might b going back for more abercrombie basics!

hello shopperholic.

back in sgp

just arrived yesterday midnite, or rather today early morning.

we were damn lucky at the airport yesterday!!!!!
jetstar's baggage allowance was 20kg, and all of us overloaded like nobody's business. it was so super ultra lucky that andy, our student ambassador, was taking the same flight as us to singapore to play.. and we could check in as a grp so we wun exceed the allowance.

and he alone helped us save a whooping SGD$804!

my luggage was 25.5kg, so by right we have to pay $30 for each kg, so i alone have to pay $168.50 if andy wasn't there.
and my luggage had a broken handle and lock. ultimate cui-ness.

after 2 months abroad i still need some time adjusting back to singapore life.
like yesterday nite i wanna dabao food, and i almost said 'wai dai', which is the taiwan lingo for dabao.
and the taiwanese rice is really nicer than the rice here. haha.

i'm too lazy to upload ALL the photoes up to facebook! haha. still a lot of photoes.
which reminds me....
i have yet to check my results, plan my timetable next sem and confirm with my friendss!

i am so excited for yanzi's concert this sat.

ok the goodies i bot is expiring faster than i expected so i really must clear everything by the end of this month.
time to meet up friends!

AUTOBOTS ROLLING OUT TMR!!!!!!

TW6: Stars

ever since i came here i keep having weird dreams.

like the night b4 i met YCL at taipei,

i dreamt of myself filming an MV with Ella, and i became her rumoured boyfriend, then when gou zai tried to take our photoes, she said 'nvm, let them take!' and purposely pose an intimate pose for them.

then a few days back i dreamt of going for yanzi's concert right in front of her house, and halfway through the concert she saw me and invited me for dinner inside her house together with a few people and she paused the concert just to have dinner.

and yesterday i dream of yang jing hua of 败犬女王 having the same chinese class as us here, and halfway during the lesson i got her autograph in one of my notebooks but i was too shy to approach her for a photo. she was quite friendly in the class, then a few days later i approached her after class when some of the students left for a photo and she agreed and i was so happy. hahaha

mayb i think too much.

anyway i met up with andrea, who came all the way down from taichung. she's studying in a uni there but came down to visit her aunt and take some stuff frm her.
soooooo nice to meet a familiar face here!!!!!!!!!!!!!! phewwwwwwwwwww
wad a break from all the awkwardness!

and we ate a lot of stuff like at the mexican restaurant



and the super duper nice italian restaurant today. and i bot A LOT of stuff from her recommendations and doubled the no. of stuff i bot frm these few weeks.
