Life

2007-04-27T19:50:00.000+08:00

Life is unpredictable. One moment one mayb standing there alive and well, the next moment might be the end of one's life journey. Nobody knows when would be the time that one would have to put down everything that one has, to leave for another world that is beyond human's knowledge. It would be a road of no return.

All that is left behind would be memories, memories and more memories. No one would have the ability to turn back time. No one has the ability to change the past. All that is left is memories of the good old times. Remembering the very actions and words of the love one is all that is left. Our mind is the best time capsule, where we keep a recollection of the past times.

Live life with no regrets. Cherish the people around us. As there would not be a second chance for us to live the same life again. We cannot make changes to the past and complete the things that we have in mind, yet never put into actions. Make sure that one do the things that would leave behind no regrets.

"I will always remember the times that you were around and the things you have done for me..."

Superstar virgo Cruise

2006-12-29T23:13:00.000+08:00

It's been 2 wks (or more??) since of holiday on the cruise. Haha... Nw i'm only blogging abt it after 21 days. Haha... Jus simply too lazy to blog. Haha... Have nt been online for a long time. Haha...

10-12-2006

Board the cruise at ard 3 plus in the afternoon. Wah. The q to board the ship was super duper long!! Had to q for a long time b4 boarding. Yea. Gonna hav fun on the Superstar Virgo. The ship is really huge! The total capacity was 1960 and all the cabins had been fully booked! Wow. We stayed on deck 11. It is very very near to the other facilities. As the buffet restaurant, swimming pool, lounge, activity centre etc are all on deck 12. Took part in the emergency drill on board b4 the ship set sail. After which, spent my time exploring the ship and played at the arcade. Watched ice age 2 at The picture hse and a Shaolin show at The Lido. Wanted to stay up late, but my bro n i had no place to go after 11pm due to age limit. Haiz...

11-12-2006

Reached Penang at noon. Left the ship on smaller size boats to go on a shopping spree. Hee... We signed up for the shopping tour! Hee... Bought some gifts from the shopping centres. We only return to the ship at ard 5pm. Had BBQ dinner out at the pool side. Food was nice! Explore ard for a bit and watched the magic show "Abracadabra" by Zee denack and the show " Beyond Broadway" a production by the ship crew themselves. The magic show is nice as it was funnie, as the magician told jokes and make fun of the audience that he invite on the stage.

12-12-2006

The ship reached Phuket at 8am. As we had signed up for a tour to go for carabet show, thus we took the small boat out again. (Mum n dad found out tt the boats are actually lowered down from the cruise itself.) When on tour to visit some temple and had a Thai lunch! Bro n i challenge each other by adding chilli padi to our tom yam soup. Haha... So fun.

When to watch the carabet show after lunch. It was nice. The performers were quite pretty. They look feminine but they are actually males who had injected hormones into themselves. Without hearing them speak, you would nt hav guessed tt they are males. After watching the show and hearing the tour guide speak abt them, i felt rather sad. As according to the tour guide, these performers usually only live up to ard 40 years old and their beauty fades at ard 25 years old (look the best at 12 or 13). I felt tt it is a high price that they pay for gaining acceptance in the society and not be an outcast that is shun and pinpoint at, by others. By injecting hormones to change their look, they jus wish gain acceptance for their feminine behaviour, but yet these comes with a price of a short life span. On the other hand, they are really worth mentioning as they are actually willing to sacrifice their life span jus to pursue the things that they really want, despite the grave consequences. Despite the short life span, I guess they really did lead a fulfilling life.

After returning to the ship, had the Gala dinner at the Belle Vista restaurant. Went for the cocktail b4 dinner. Took a glass of yellow liquid assuming tt it was champagne, but it turn out to be beer. Oh dear, it really stink and it is so bitter. I only drank a bit, but bro drank half of it! Haha... During the dinner, mum, bro n i drank cocktail. it was called Singapore Sling. Haha... Rather nice taste. Hee... (It consist of martini). Bro and I ordered garden salad as our apertizer and guess wad, the salad dressing consist of champagne. Wad a night! Alcohol night?? Haha... Anyway i drank slightly more than half a cup of cocktail, as i'm nt sure whether i'm allergic to it. Bro finished it! Haha... Guess wad? Bro n i when arcade to drive! Drink n drive. Haha... (Don't worry i'm nt drunk. I din vomit, no rashes, din do crazy things. Was even able to play monopoly and read. Haha...)

13-12-2006

A whole day onboard the ship. Learned to play basic majong. When out to view the sea. Ate lotsa cakes n pastries! Haha... Nothing much to do, din get to c the casino. When onto deck 13 to feel the seabreeze. It was very very very very windy! Haha... Ship arrived in Singapore at 7pm. Wad a great holiday filled with lotsa of first time. (1st time drinking so much alcohol, first time seeing the beautiful sunset out at sea, first time waking up and nt being able to see any land, first time playing majong...)

Korean style dinner

2006-12-08T13:51:00.000+08:00

Sat:

As mum and dad are gg to grandma's place, so bro n i den decides to cook dinner on our own. We found recipes on the net and cooked mashed potato, kimchi fried rice n koreand style chicken drumnettes. Haha... Din expect the food to turn out nice, as it is our first time using recipes from internet. However, we crossed our finger n prayed hard tt it will work, else we are gg to hav a rather horrible dinner.

As mum wanted to try the the mashed potato, thus we did a set b4 i go for my piano lesson. We used yellow potatoes which was nt suitable, thus had a hard time trying to the mashed up the potatoes. If i knew earlier tt the white potatoes are better, i would hav bought it. Learnt a new thing today. White potatoes are good for mashed potatoes and the yellow ones are good for cooking curry.

Started making dinner when i came home from piano lesson. Started out preparing all the ingredients and cooked the fried rice first. As i was afraid to dirty my book, i placed it on top of the cabinets in the kitchen. It crashed on my bro's head twice! Haha...

The fried rice was rather easy to cook. As the ingredient are only kimchi, ham, pepper, salt and cooked rice. As most of the ingredient are already ready cooked thus did not have the case of the food still being raw after i remove it from the stove. However, this 2 plates of fried rice used up my whole bottle of kimchi. OMG!!! There goes my new bottle of kimchi. Haiz... '

My bro did the korean style chicken drumnettes while i was busy trying to crushed the corn flake for the fried mashed potatoes. The chicken drumnettes were rather easy though. Haha... All the details of the sauces to b used are all specify clearly, thus it turn out veri veri nice!!!! Haha... Here are some picture of my bro while he is cooking. Haha... So unfair i b came his photographer. Haiz...

We did the mashed potatoes after that, but it looks horrible, as we try to dip the mashed potato into egg and crushed cornflakes. Yucks!! it taste like harshbrown after frying, but it looks veri veri different from it. Haha... It looks gross! After which, we started clearing up the mess that we had created in the kitchen. Haha... Show some picture of the mess we created. Haha... Jus realised how many plates we have used jus to do 3 dishes. Haiz...

Last but not least the final product of our hardwork! Haha. A sumptous dinner!

The frame maker sent us back our Van gogh puzzle!! Here's the picture of it!! Haha... Other than that, also the picture of the waterfall puzzle that was done about 2 weeks ago.

2006-12-01T18:17:00.000+08:00

Tue: 2nd day of E cube training.
E cube training was rather boring. Haiz... Such a waste of time. Hee... Should have stayed at home to finish up my puzzle. Hee... Anyway, the advertising part of the whole course was the best part le, cos get to draw and design and watch nice advertisement. Nonetheless i regret gg. Haha... Should have saved that $20 like Jasmine. Worse of all, we were ask to do a survey and write a page of reflection. Gonna write stuff that are politically correct, since i nid to write my name on it. Haha... Guess that's human's natural behaviour.

Wed:

Therefore, I planned to cook on thurs, jus for the fun of it. Haha... Thus, i went online to research for recipes that seems nice. Found the recipes for kimchi fried rice, korean style chicken drumnettes, and fried potato balls. Haha... Haven tried cooking them yet, thus nt sure whether those online recipes will work a not. So excited! I wanna go supermarket and buy the ingredients to cook!!!

So heavy la. Hand gonna gif way soon lor...

As we were early, we played wif Joash. Haha... He's so so cute! He noes hw to say "oh". Haha... Can stand too. Guess so many unfamiliar faces, we really scare him. Haha... Eventually, he cried. Haha...

BBQ food was ok, except for the chicken wings. Haha... Tingkai bought chicken wings and nt marinated chicken wings. Haiz... Guess realli cant trust guys to go to the supermarket. Haiz. Had rather nice food and Jiayi brought de beehoon veri nice! Haha... Someone brought marigold jelly, and u noe wad we seniors did? We took out all the magnet! Hee... Hello kitty magnets. Wingki veri unlucky all those that she open are nt hello kitty ones, but all tt i open are. Muhahaha...

Happie Feet

2006-11-24T10:03:00.000+08:00

Cut my little pinkie on wed. Haiz. So painful. All b cos of a stupid guava. Haha. End up having 2 hours of theory lessons. Haha. Rush to get Happie feet's ticket after which. Haha...

Watch Happie feet on the first day of the season in cinema. So nice. Mumble is so cute! He taps his foot! Haha... This is the first time i watch a movie with an almost filled theatre. Haha... Lotsa of kids there with their frens n family. Haha... Perhaps is b cos yesterday was the release of PSLE results thus many of the students came to watch movie after the show. Hee...

It's a very nice show. But it's weird hw come i felt so touch when Mumble finally got the acceptance of the rest of the Emperor penguin. Felt so sad when he was being seen as a weirdo and nobody wants to b wif him when he behaves differently from the rest, and also becos he cant sing. Guess this show really brings out the cruel fact of life. People view you differently and gauge you by your behaviour. A slight difference from the crowd would be seen as abnormality and treated as a weirdo. Isn't it sad? People dont c it as a special triad of the person but as something bad and undesirable. Y do people desire to follow the crowd and be one of the million doing the same thing and nt stand out in the crowd and be the one out of a million, like Mumble? Haiz...

This show realli leaves me to ponder. Right and wrong is dependable on wad the majority thinks. So does it mean tt in order to survive in the world, we nid to follow the crowd, and change ourselves to suit the thinking of others, so as nt to b seen as a weirdo?

Wah, i'm so wordy today. Haha. Guess tt's all. Haha...

Jap curry

2006-11-22T11:58:00.000+08:00

Yea! My Japanese curry was a great success! Haha... Nice! It was such a surprise that the curry and some side dishes only took bro n me 1h to prepare. But made a big mistake, end up cooking too much. One whole big pot. Haha... Nvm, my mum suggest sharing with our neighbours. Haha... Or else tonight surely will have a lot of left overs. Haha...

Haiz

2006-10-26T18:55:00.000+08:00

Nothing matters anymore now. What's done cannt be undone. When things are at the stage of being a "mayb", holding on to a nonchalant attitude is a piece of cake. However, when reality slaps u hard on the face, the feelings and emotions that flow out of ones heart and soul is no longer the expected ones. It is jus like knowingly tripped over a large pebble and falling flat on the ground. It hurts, but no matter what is done to minimise the degree of pain, it would not eliminate the fact that the wound hurts. Time would b the best medicine for it. But all hopes are there that time would heal the wound and that the wound is not so serious as to leave an ugly scar and a bad memory behind... Dont ask and dont worry, I'm alright. May the future be bright and sunny with no more injuries that hurts like this.

Watched Frankenstein, La Vita e bella (Life is beautiful) and Gone with the wind. Great show. Takes my mind off things that i dun feel like thinking abt.

Dinner at revolving restaurant

2006-10-22T22:08:00.000+08:00

It's been a long long time since i last updated. Haha. Sort of lost track of time how time flies and what had actually been happening at this time.

Dad came back from Belgium. Bought bac lotsa chocolate, gonna grow fat !! Had a chocolate wif box in the shape of a Violin and the chocolate wrapper printed with the pic of Mozart!! So cool, although i dun realli fancy Mozart. Bought back CDs from Austria, Vienna (dad transfer flight in Vienna). Oh my god! VIENNA!! The place of birth and residence of many great musicians and composers back in the 16th and 17th century.

When grandma hse for the wkend, had BBQ there. Haha. More interested in the dark chocolate den the bbq food. Haha. Listening to the CD of Phantom of Opera (original cast), i'm totally mesmerised by Sarah Brightman's voice ( she sang the part of Christine Daae). Watch the movie Little Man and Smakes on the plane. Snakes on the plane is rather disgusting with some scenes that is nt suitable for kids and with that u noe wad i mean. Haha... Still dun get it den view Binz's blog. (He made a rather good description of it in one of his entry. Binz dun come beat me up for saying tt. Haha... It's a compliment for ya gd descriptive skill. Haha)

Had dinner at the Prima revolving restaurant to celebrate grandma's birthday. Saw Vivo city out of the window of the restaurant. The building looks veri weird indeed, but it's gigantic!! Ate lotsa great food, and was extrememly full. ( I'm typing tis entry while my digestive system is working doubly hard to digest the food in my tummy haha...) Read my cousin's Mr. Kiasu comic while waiting for the lobster ( which took like 30 min to appear on the dinning table), jus realise how hard it is to tell a joke tt is amusing, cos Mr. Kiasu is simply corny and definately nt funny at all.

Tt's all for now. Really enjoyed my hols, but promo overall result coming out on Thurs. Haiz. Awaiting and at the same time crossing my fingers to pray real hard. May i smoke my way through. ( Although sometimes my brain simply tries to contradict myself).

Konnyaku jelly!!!

2006-08-26T18:14:00.000+08:00

On Wed, Ru min came to my hse to do Konnyaku jelly. Planning to give them to the teachers at CCHMS as teachers' day gift. Haha... I borrowed the jelly mould from Molly. So kind of her to go search n bring the mould for me. Haha... Had a great time doing the jelly. Rather easy to do though. Hee... We bought Nata de Coco n the caned fruit cocktail to add into our jelly. Haha... Nt forgetting the blue and green food colouring. Hee... Made lotsa of jelly, and the kitchen was in a big mess after tt. Hee... Also dunnoe y i found traces of my blue jelly on the floor, and i actualli stepped on it. Oh my Gosh! ( Teachers dun worry, we din add tt into the container. haha...) Anyway we did till 10pm b4 Ru Min went home. Heee.... The jellies were super nice, jus tt the blue colour on the jelly, resembles the blue washing detergent. Haha... But it's a rather exotic colour dun u tink so???

Fri was the exciting day! Sylvia, Molly, Rumin, Si min n i went bac to CCHMS. Luckily, Rumin n i decide to call Mrs Yeo. Haha... We ask her wait for us. Hee... If nt later she go home le, den we would nid to put her share of jelly into the staff room fridge till Mon b4 she gets to eat it. Haha... We gave out jellies to all our subj teacher in sec 4. Haha.. Chat in the staff rooms wif lotsa teachers. CCHMS had changed quite a lot after we hav graduated. Saw quite a number of new teachers ard. However, our teachers are still as friendly as b4. Hee... So sad, Mrs Lim was not in sch, as it was her off day, Mr soon left early ( nonetheless, i called him to disturb him. He is as comical as ever. I doubt he still remember the moscow circus joke he crack tt targeted on me.), Mdm Yeo also left liao. Mdm Yeo called bac saying tt she went to eat lunch wif another teacher, so sad. However she called bac after which saying tt we should hav called herearlier den can go out lunch wif her. Haha... so swt of her! Tink we would ask her out for lunch soon!! Hee... Mr. So is still the same, always cracking his lame jokes. But guess tt's his way of having fun n spicing up the dull n boring life. Haha... No wonder i nvr slp in his lessons b4. Haha.

Distribute all the jellies and for those teachers tt are nt ard, we left the jellies into the fridge in the respective staff room. Haha... Had a great time. Really miss the days in CCHMS. Tink we miss the "tortoise in the lake" life ( as said by Mr Lee). Haha... Seeing all the juniors having their CCA in the afternoon and we sat at the canteen to chit chat. All this realli bring bac gd memories of the great time we had in the sch. Can still clearly remembered hw we had stayed bac in sch till super late to prepare for events or to chit chat wif friends. Other than that, also remembered all the time tt we hav spend, the sucky events, and hw we come to sch each day looking like zombies n panda due to the daily burning of midnight oil. I realli miss the times... Life in CCHMS has so much more life and fun. Great to c my classmates n teachers too. It's been a long time since i went back, the banana coloured walls actuallli look nice when all the buildings are fully painted. Haha... There r new canteen stalls too. Drank lemon tea wif Rumin n Molly. Haha... Tt's was our usual drink.

Enough of memories! I mus get bac to mugging, i wanna promote! Promos is onli abt a mth away!!! OMG~~ Mr Lee n Mr Chua says tt JC life is the toughest but after u get across life would b much much better! I wan it over in 2 yrs! So mus promote!!!!

A crazy rush for time!

2006-08-18T23:35:00.000+08:00

Today was a totally disastrous day! Started wif a Maths Test tt i have no hope in. It was so disappointed, although i studied, i spend a long time thinking thus end up wif nt having enough time to finish the paper. Haiz.

After the Maths test was yet another test, and tt's the 2.4Km run for Napfa Test. Haiz... Life is sad. No matter wad, i still cleared my 2.4 run wif 15 min n 22 s. Ok. I'm rather satisfy wif tis kind of timing. Although. my previous test, i gt 15 min n 9 s. Nvm, i dun realli care, cos eventualli i will still b stuck in afternoon pe, all thanks to my 5 items. Haiz... All sweaty n stinky after the pe.

Had geog lesson after which and we had a surprise quiz. OMG! I have nt even like read through the weathering notes b4, so dun expect gd grades at all. My 12 mark essay will b a goner i guess. So sad. Nvm, another shocking news, for tut 3 all 10 marks qns mus hav an ans of 1 n 1/2 page long. N obviously mine was nowhere near tt, as i take the qns's "describe briefly". Having to do 3 qns of 1 n 1/2 pg long in no big deal, but mus hand in within today? I had the greatest shock! I still nid to do the final episode of the podcast in the afternoon. Oh gosh. I'm realli preparing to pack my clothings n camp in sch!

After school, was a big rush. Firstly, rush to book the discussion room and to rent laptop for usage. Nid to quickly come up wif the script to the podcast. Den we discover that the program "Audacity" cannot b load into the computer, thus we had to go n find the sch TA to help us. Haiz... waste time again. After tt, started writing script. Tt was fun, cos we get to realli crap wif all the nonsence like shouting and screaming. Did well! Haha. A much better script den the episode 2. Finally finish writing the script at 5 pm, and we left to look for a tut room on the 3rd storey to continue wif the recording part.

At the tut room, we did our recording. It was super fast. Almost all lines will able to b done with the correct tone and emotion at one try. Guess we r realli bcoming more n more experienced in tis. Haha... can go n join choral reading and reading aloud compeitions. MUHAHAH... Had lotsa fun wif the banging of tables, screaming to gif the effect of a catfight. Hahah... Anyway was a gd thing tt we manage to finish the whole editing of the podcast and the changing of the tone of voice. Then we realised tt we hav no way to save the file home. Thus we borrowed thumbdrive from Mr. Yeo. Thanks god he was still in college. Haha. Anyway finish all the saving etc by 7pm and we set out to the nearby coffee shop for dinner. N i get to eat the Tom Yam noodles tt i love and had been craving for since Mon. Haha...

Return bac to sch at 8 to continue to pia for the geog tut. Was attaching paper to the original homework tt i did. Firstly, i cant b bothered to copy the whole thing. If i'm doing tt, i probably realli hav to camp in sch. Did all the work n finally finish everything by 9.45pm. Luckily my dad came to pick me up. So we send jiah Li home. Haha... Had a great bath after such a long day. Haha... and here i am typing tis entry. Haha...

Had lotsa stuff to look forward to. Tmr's film forum, nxt wed's jelly making wif Ru Min, and nxt fri's CCHMS visit. Gonna gif the jelly to my teacher for teachers' day! Haha... N nt forgeting, I may b gg to go n watch Forbbiden city again! The college bringing the lit student there and suppose everyone take the 80 plus ticket den i get to go n watch too. If someone choose the 52 one den guess i'm nt gg already. Dun realli c a point of watching the show twice in 3 yr lapse but yet sit on the same circle 3 seats. Haha... I hope nobody taking the 52 dollar ticket. Haha... Den i will go n enjoy tt marvellous musical again. Kit chan can sing superduple well!!!! (I've been listening to the cd lately. I LOVE THE SONGS... )

"Like winter nights nid fire, like temples nid a shrine, like lovers nid desire, like prophets nid a sign, i nid him, cant he c, i nid him to b mine!"

NDP eve n NDP

2006-08-10T13:19:00.000+08:00

Had a great day on the eve of NDP. So excited over NDP. Went out to sell flag. Haha... The sticker were so colourful n nice. It's a bit big though. haha... It is actualli a compeitition thus 0605 mus win!! haha... We went around looking for clues to fill up our contest qns and also asking for donations. Jus discover tt it is easier to get donations if we stand out supermarkets and banks cos ppl jus took out their wallet. Other then that, ppl jus gt lose change from paying for grocery. Anyway, despite our stickers ran out, we still continue to ask for donations from the public. However, there was an old man who lectured us saying tt we dun hav stickers already yet still ask for donation. This is so ridiculous. It's onli 40 cents? ppl donate $2 also nvr complain. haiz... Anyway, i dun care... haha... Had a great time. My first time selling flag. Anyway, my class won $30 Swensen voucher for the compeition. YEA!!

Went for dinner wif Kylie, after which we walk over to marina bay (The Merlion statue there). The bridge tt connects Esplanade to the Merlion garden was filled up went we headed towards the Merlion garden. Found an empty space b side the Merlion n sat down to wait for the firewrork show tt would b starting at 9 pm. We sat there chit chatting n admiring the night scenery of S'pore river for abt 2 hours b4 the show start. The fireworks was magnificent. It followed the NDP songs's rhythm and atmosphere. Everyone cheered as one firework after another appeared on the dark sky.

Slept at 3.30 am thus end up waking up at 10 plus on National day. Went out after which to watch movie. Watched " Lady in the water" at the Toa Payoh Entertainment centre. After which went home to watch the live telecast of NDP on tv. Played wif the aroma fragrance essence. Haha... Lavender essence while i slept. COOL!!!

Choir farewell party n Littiputt

2006-07-29T21:45:00.000+08:00

Went back to CCHMS again yesterday. Haha... Attended the farewell party tt cchms choir had for Mr Lai n the current batch of sec 4s. Met lotsa my juniors and some of my seniors even. Haha... Played broken telephone. The msg was so tough. Here's the first one tt we passed down.

" One-one is a race horse,

One-two is one-two,

One-one won a horse race,

One-two was one-two."

However, apparently the first person remembered the wrong thing and pass down the wrong one, so we lost. Haha... actualli the one i put was the wrong one tt we passed down. Haha... Play other games and we sang together with the juniors. sang Dorvan dalai. I was so shock tt i actualli still remember the words. After which we sang Salmo 150 for our juniors. However, we went extrememly out of tune. Haha... Took photo with juniors. Haha... First time in the newly renovated choir room. Haha... However the ceiling is a bit too low, thus is was super loud when we cheer and scream. Haha...

Today, was an extremely unluckily day. I start of day having hot cup noodle on my hands. My fingers still hurts slightly. Haiz... When for peer tutoring. Today was scary, lotsa p3 n p4 students. They flooded the AVA rm. Worse thing was tt they was a lot of tutors missing today. Had a bad time. End up teaching 5 p4 student at one go. The gals were ok, but the 2 guys were veri lazy. Keep on toking n wasting time instead of doing work. Haiz... The rm was extremely noisy. My poor tutee end up taught by someone else today. So sad tt i dun get to teach her today. CNNY ppl came to film the tutoring prog.

Went for Ray's birthday party after which. Played mini golf at East Coast Big Splash there. Haha... Tt was fun!! The 18 hole mini golf had 18 station tt features the various places in Singapore and the golf course had mechanisms tt can bring the ball across to the other side of the area. One even had Mrt train tt can bring the ball over to the other end. So cool! Haha... realli had a great day!

If i was to know it earlier i would hav heck care n take me own swt time. I HATE PE!! A piece of advice, those who dislike or weak in physical training, pls dun enter JC... Else will suffer same fate as me. Haiz... Dun tink i would pass the re test in August. Who cares!! Pass wif bronze despite has improvements, yet still considered fail n nid afternoon pe. I mus as well take my own swt time !!! Haha... tt's all for today. shall update again soon...

Korea Trip

2006-06-12T23:45:00.000+08:00

An Nyung Ha Se Yo

Below is the summary of my 7 days Korea trip.

3rd June (Sat)

Changi International Airport:
Took Asiana Airline to Korea's Incheon International airport. It was a nite flight, thus my family n i left our home at 8 pm for the flight which is at 10.30pm. Watch Nanny Mcphee on board, however, due to tireness, i fell aslp halfway through the show. haha...

4th June (Sun)
Incheon~Yongin~Daejeon

Incheon International Airport:

(Me at Incheon International Airport)

Happy B'day Mum. Reached Korea at abt 6.55 am (s'pore time, 5.55am Korea time). My family was the last grp to gather outside the airport as we gt delayed due to the long q at the immigration counter. The custom officers took a long time to check out a woman who was in front of us and after the long check she was sent to a rm to do her visa. The custom officer also spend a long time toking to my mum cos he found out tt it was her b'day through her passport. ( Realli wonder whether my mum understand wad the person is saying, cos the person speaks in Korean wif a mixture of english here n there). Brushed my teeth at the toilet n had breakfast at the airport.

~Proceed to Yongin~

Yongin Everland:

(Bro n me at Yongin Everland)

Bought the Big 5 ticket for the theme park, which entitles me 5 rides in the park n a free cable car ride. As the park is being divided into the upper portion n the lower portion, thus we took the cable car down to the lower part to go for a 3d movie and a water current ride on a "boat". The 3d movie was sort of similar to the chinese sunwukong. The water current ride got me wet!! Water kept on splashing into the "boat". Haiz... After tt was the safari tour. The main highlight of the safari was the Liger, which is a fusion between a tiger n a lion. It is so cute!! cos it looks like a lion, yet it has faint tiger strips on its body. However, it is veri veri fierce. Neither the tiger nor the lion is it's match in turn of body size n fierceness. So dun mess ard wif it. So sad, i forgot to get a pic of the liger. Haha... The safari also had bears tt can perform tricks.

(The performing Bear!!)

After the safari tour, my bro n i went for a ride on a viking ship, ferris wheel ( mum n dad came along for tis) and a super lame spooky hse. The viking ship was extremely thrilling, gt the feeling of committing suicide when the ship swing downwards. However, so shiok!! haha... However, thanks to my scardy cat bro, we sat on the seat at the centre of the ship. ( The least thrilling seat on the whole ship.) The super lame spooky hse onli freak me b cos of the darkness and the rest of it was jus so lame n sian. haha...

Gyeonggi Korean Traditional Music centre:

(The cast of "Wedding" n my family)

Went to watch a musical called " Wedding". It was abt a miser who wanna marry his daughter Sooni to a rich official, but the daughter want to marry a servant in the household. They argued n finally when Sooni faked death den her dad finally gave in. The whole show was filled wif music n dances. The show incorporated the various aspects of the Korean traditional arts, like the fan dance, songs, the traditional Korean music ( played using the korean traditional instru) etc... It was fun n entertaining. After the show, my family took photo wif the cast of the show. I also tried on the traditional Korean costume. I chose one tt resembles tt wore by Jang Geum when she bcame the principal doctor of the king.

(Me!!!)

Misc:
Had Korean cuisine for dinner. Kimchi was extremely spicy! Haha... But quite delicious thoough. Used metal chopsticks to eat. haha... My first time using it. so fun. haha... Spend nite at Daejeon.

5th June (Mon)
Daejeon~Daegu

Mt. Maisan:

(Bro n me wif STONES!)

Saw lotsa stone statues at the temple on the top of the mountain. It was built by a monk alone when he came to stay there. The stones r stacked upwards by size to form a big structure. The great thing was tt the monk alone can do up such a big structure n the temple wifout others help. Amazing!! There r stories tt during winter and someone pray veri veri hard to the deity at the temple wif a bowl of clean water, icicles wif wordings would form. After the visit, my family stroll down the mountain to our dinning restaurant. On the way, we even saw a big lake. It was so beautiful...

~Went to Daegu (the hottest place in Korea during summer due it is basin like land shape.)~

Donghwa Temple:

(Me n bro at DongHwa temple)

Went there onli for a short while as the tour was running slightly behind schedule. Found out tt the buddhas r also divided into 3 catagories. Those tt guards the past, the present n the future. Other tt, also learnt tt in Korea, no matter wad religious, all the religious relater ppl r well respected.

Jungang-ro Street:
Din do much shopping due to the search for adapters, so tt we can charge our camera batt. However, due to being unable to communicate to the Korean speaking shopkeepers, we din manage to get any. Last resort is to borrow frm either the hotel or if nt our tour grp ppl. Mum gt a bag which cost 5000 won. so cool... Tt's considered cheap, when taking into consideration the high standard and cost of living in Korea.

Spavalley:
Onli went for the swimming pool part, as the steam rm requires ppl to enter naked.( Dun worry... Males n female dun share the same steam rm. Haha... ) Din wan to try, as i super super scared of hot n warm n rather shy abt it. It is the culture of the Korean tt daughters go for sauna wif their mum n sons goes wif their dad. They r nt conservative like us tt upon reaching a certain age, parent no longer bathe wif their children. The swimming pool had jacuzzi in it. So fun!! Haha....

Misc:
Learn abt the Korean History today. The tour guide told us the history abt hw Korea bcame wad it is today. Korea started off as a 3 countries, den bcame Kao Li, den Joseon and den the present Korea. However, due to the Korean war, Korea is nw divided into North n South Korea. Was taught some simple Korean phrases too... Below r some of it.

Lunch was mushroon steam boat and dinner was stone bowl rice. I'm beginning to get use to the Korean Cuisine, and starting to like it.

(Mushrm steamboat at Mt Maisan)

6th June (Tue)
Daegu~Yong Pyong

Boat Ride:

(Family on "boat" tour)

Went on a boat ride to view some island tt is on a man made lake. The lake supplied water for most parts of Korea. (Sry ... Could nt remember the name of it) During the ride, we saw lotsa of mountains tt r quite perculiar. They had shapes like tortoise, candle, whales etc. Took lotsa of pic on the boat. Haha... This was n additional activity tt is nt on our original schedule as the tour guide discover tt we r nw ahead of schedule.

(Candle)

Dodamsanbong:

(Bro, Mum n i at dodamsanbong)

Went to view 3 small hills tt was in the middle of a huge lake. It was beautiful. However onli went down to take some photos cos there was nothing much to do there.

~Proceed to Yong Pyong~

Gondola ride:
As it was suppose to b a skiing resort, thus it was super deserted (It's summer nw). Took a 20 min Gondola ride up mountain. We went up to a height of 1450m above sea lvl. The ride was rather fun b cause we get to c realli beautiful sceneries. The top of the mountain was the filming site of the Korean serial Winter Sonata. I din watch the show anyway, so din realli noe wad romantic scene was took there. Took photo up there as there was a mini garden tt has colourful flowers. Then took a 20 min ride down again.

(Mum n i on top of mountain)

Misc:
Learn abt the poor lives of the Korean women. Thanks to Confucius, Women in Korea ( past n present) lead lives tt r rather sad. The "side effects" of confucius teachings cos women to get unequal treatment n the men. There was a saying a millionaire in Korea b comes bankrupt if his wife gives birth to 3 daughters. Firstly, large amt of dowry r paid by the parents of the daughter so as to ensure tt their daughter can get to lead a good life after marriage n nt get abused or bullied. Secondly, during a marriage, the man's family either rent or buy a hse, n after which the bride's family would hav to buy all the funitures n appliances to furnish n fill up the hse. Tt's so unfair! Product of sexism! Bride's family tt fail to do the above, the bride would experience hardship n pressure exerted by their mother-in-law after marriage. Mother-in-law would bully the bride jus like the way tt they were bullied, and tis pass on down the generation. Sad to say, the law failed to protect the females. The tour guide also said tt nw the situation is getting better. Last time was worse, thus it was said tt the ribbons on the Hanbok was frequently used as tissue to wipe tears in olden days when women r cooking in the kitchen as they fear tt their mother-in-laws wil c them in tears. Other than that, also learnt abt the hw some women went being divorced by their husband in olden times n cannt return to their parents hse thus either end up commiting suicide or as became prostitues. Law was extremely unfair to women in the past in Korea. Other than that, the respect tt Koreans had for those tt r older then them was also mentioned by the tour guide. Youngsters do nt smoke in front of ppl older den them due to being respectful.

As for lunch n dinner, i had a cross breed fish steam boat for lunch, (The fishy smell was so disgusting. Din like it) n pork steam boat for dinner. The pork steam boat was delicious. Apparently, Koreans likes pork n beef (due to many ppl cannt eat beef, thus it was nt served). had pork when ever there r meat on the dinning table.

7th June (Wed)
Yong Pyong ~ Seoul

~Proceed to Seoul~

MBC Dae Jang Geum Theme Park:

(The entrance of Dae Jang Geum theme park)

Was so excited abt it cos i love the Dae Jang Geum serial... haha... The site was actualli the filming studio of the serial itself. As the serial was so popular, thus the company den decided to keep the site intact for tourist to view. The filming site was rather small. Nt as grand n big as wad i tot.

(SuRagan - royal kitchen)

However, nevertheless, i get to c all the various places where Jang Geum had prepared food and also the places where she visited as a medical lady. I also saw the place where the king takes his food, the place where Pak Myung Hee n Lady Han buried the pot of vinegar.

The place where Jang Geum used to put Pine leaves in the nuts. In the film site, i rent the costume to wear. Selected the one tt Jang Geum where when she went she was promoted after the cooking compeitition tt determines whether she get to stay in the palace.

(Me in court maid costume!)
(Mum in Dae Jang Geum costume)

I took lotsa photos. My mum wore wad Jang Geum wore when she was given the name Dae Jang Geum. Also visited river tt was used to take the part where Jang Geum escape frm the palace to look for peasant wif Keum Young, the sulphur ducks n the bridge where the king n Jang Geum took night strolls. The romantic scenes between Jang Geum n Min Jung Ho was also taken at the site. All the various scenes were mostly being taken in the filming site itself. So cool. realli enjoy tis part of the tour, as i feel as if like i am watching the serial another time. Hee...

(Us at the Refrigeration rm where sauces etc r kept)

The Blue House:

(Me NEAR to Korea's president's residence)

That a drive through to view the predident's residence. Due to the strict restriction, thus din manage to get a close look of it.

Changduk Palace:

(Inside Changduk Palace)

When to visit the Changduk palace which was the last residential place for the last King of korea. The place was extremely big n it resembles the look of a China palace. However, the colours used to paint the walls were nt similar to tt of China's palace. The tour guide of Changduk Palace gave us a rough introduction of the various places wifthin the palace. As the palace was still nt too far in history, thus cars n western furnishing can b seen in the palace. Tour the whole palace wif a grp of tourist frm Beijing. Some rather funnie parts tt me n my bro laughed at as the tourist gave sarcastic remarks.

Dongdaemum Market:
When to Dongdaemum market to shop. On the street tt we alight frm our tour bus was actualli huge shopping malls. It was said tt Dongdaemum is the place tt ppl look out for the most in style fashion trends. As the things there r rather expensive, thus we did nt buy much stuffs. The tour guide sort of misunderstand. He din noe tt we actualli wanted to buy the "street market" kind of things as small sovenirs n nt branded goods (if we wan branded stuff, we can always buy in s'pore). When to the opps street to shop at the small road side stalls for sovenirs.

Misc:
Had bbq pork for lunch n Ginseng Chicken for dinner. Din realli enjoy dinner as i dislike the smell of ginseng. haha... However, lunch was scrumptious. BBQ pork wif a special sauce n den wrap wif vege was so delicious. Watch Dae Jang Geum throughout the bus ride, thus din get to listen to much stories abt Korea's culture etc. However, did learn abt the look of a ginseng farm as we pass by many during our bus ride frm one place to another.

8th June (Thurs)
Seoul

Ginseng monopoly show room:
When to the place where the govt set up to sell the Korean Ginseng. Learnt that Ginseng can b differentiated into the diff yrs tt it had been planted. 1st n 2nd yr r called baby ginseng. 3rd n 4th yr ginseng n teens and is the most heaty one. 5th n 6th yr ginseng n the adult ginseng. 6th yr ginseng is the best and the ginseng in Korea tt r cultivated by farmers r all collected in the autumn of the 6th yr, so as to keep the ginseng in the best condition. The medical value of Ginseng is the best at it's 6th yr and after tt the values would deterioriate. My family din buy ginseng cos my dad says tt diff ppl hav diff health condition thus it is nt safe to take it wifout consulting doctors, despite the fact tt we noe tt Ginseng has veri high medical values. Thus, we would den go n consult a doctor when we return to singapore for chinese medicine to improve our health.

Kimchi making:

(Concentrating to make Kimchi. Haha...)

Went to a place where we were taught hw to make kimchi. As kimchi is a important source of food for the Korean during winter, in the olden times, thus all Korean women knew hw to make kimchi. According to the instructor, Korean women who cannt make gd kimchi, would end up a spinster. Haha... Had great fun trying to put the mixture of carrot n chilli powder etc to the Kao li cai (dunnoe the eng name for it). After tt, was given a choice whether we wan to bring it off wif us to eat or leave it bhind. (Left mine behind cos i noe tt i cannt finish it within a day) If nt the ppl will send the kimchi we made to orphanage or old folks home. After tt, we get to wear hanbok to take photo for free. A pink coloured one caught my sight n i wore it to take photo. Realli love the look of the hanbok. It is so beautiful. Firstly, it is my fav colour, and secondly is tt there r floral patterns on it. Love the long dress n long ribbon of the hanbok. My family all wore costume to take photo. My bro look so handsome in his official's costume. haha...

(Me in hanbok!!)

(Bro in official costume)

(Mum n dad in Hanbok n official costume respectively)

Amethyst factory:
When to a factory tt sells amethyst. Learnt hw to diff a real one n a artficial one. Learn the diff between Korea produced n those produced by other countries. Din had much interest in it,cos i dun like the dark purple colour. Many ppl in my tour grp bought the necklaces tt cost US$15 for their childen. Haha...

Dongchonghacho:
When to a shop tt sells the dongchonghacho. It was nt the first time i saw it. Cos i saw it bfore in Dae Jang Geum, when she used it to prepare soup for the King. Anyway, dongchonghacho is a chinese herb tt is worm during the winter season and when summer comes it bcomes a herb. The whole herb looks slightly disgusting due to the worm part at the bottom. Anyway, my mum bought the powdered form of it for me n my bro to mix into our drink to take. As it was said tt it can help to change the condition of sensitive coughing. As long as it does nt hav a strong smell, i'm ok wif drinking it.

Coex mall:
The tour guide brought us to coex mall, which is a underground shopping area tt sell branded goods. It was somewad similar to S'pore 's citylink, but jus tt the size of it is so much bigger. Wanted to look for hanbok in the department store cos actulli wanted to buy it, if it is cheap. However, din manage to find it at all. Sian. Wasted time there, din buy anything at all.

Lotteworld Adventure:

(The entrance of Lotte world advanture)

Went to Lotte world theme park. Bought the big 5 ticket again. Lotte world was so much more fun den Everland. Lotte world consist of both indoor n outdoor theme park. As the rides on the outside theme park was either nt thrilling at all de, if nt den is super thrilling tt i dun take de. Thus we stayed indoor. Took the Sinbad boat ride tt goes into tunnels where there r figurines tt portrayed villians etc. So nice... The effect was so marvellous. However, the ride gt me wet again!!! Haiz.... After tt, me n my bro rushed for viking ship again. Haha... This time e r determined nt to sit in the centre seat. chose the 3rd row frm the centre, however, shortly, we changed to the 2nd row frm the centre. Luckily we did tt. This viking ship ride was super siao. The ship sway to it's full height within 3 sways n the row furthest frm the centre almost touch the ceiling of the building(the building is 4 storey high). OMG!! Tt's so thrilling. But it's so fun!!! Feeling of committing suicide again. Haha.... When to watch a show tt has a combination of flame n water. So cool!! Conincidently, when i was walking to my 3rd ride, i met Jasmine. Haha... So qiao. actualli met Jasmine in Korea. Haha... so fun. When for Paroah's fury which we explored the various scenes of the pyramid on a jeep. rather bumpy ride but fun. So exciting. After tt, took artificial hot air balloon ride to view the whole place. After tt, i had 2 times on the carrousel. Haha... It may sound rather childish, when riding on it, it realli gives a rather fairy tale like and dreamy feeling. The carrousel was actualli the film site for a scene in the korean serial, Stairway to heaven.

Mt Namsan park:
The bus passed by Mt Namsan n we looked at the beautiful nite sceneries. With all the lights of the roads n the buildings, it looks so attractive n it gives sort of a dreamy feeling.

Misc:
Had lunch at a restaurant tt serve rice in a bamboo container n steamboat pork. The rice had a strong bamboo smell tt makes it taste even better. Collected our photos from the korean photographer tt had followed us on our tour since day 1. Was still guessing the price of the photo. We guess 20000 won (S$34), but it turn out to b 150000 won (abt S$255) OMG!! Din realise tt we took so much as 30 photos. Anyway, my dad bought all the photos frm the photographer, as he feels tt his service was gd n the photos were well taken. However, there r ppl in my tour grp tt din buy the photos at all or they took some of it onli.

Seoul~Incheon~Singapore

Mingdong:
When Mingdong to shop after a scrumptious breakfast of Korean breakfast (had fried rice wif a special curry tt was nt spicy. Other than that, also hadthe usual korean side dishes like kimchi n seaweed). When we went there, the shop was still close. But took a walk ard. All tt was there were either shops selling branded goods, or food. No road side stalls. Din manage to find any hanbok shop. Thus decide to approach the tourist info counter. They told us tt it is onli available at Namdaemum Market.

Namdaemum Market:
When there to look for hanbok shop. Found two den realise tt the designs were nt traditional Korean style ( dun hav the long ribbons) and yet they cost at (S$170). So expensive. So end up din buy. So sad, but nvm, ask me to wear one tt is ugly, i rather nt wear. Haha.... Anyway, after tt, we shop ard for sovenirs.

Home sweet home

Freaky incident

2006-06-03T12:42:00.000+08:00

Met wif a super freaky thingy today. When to toilet after tutoring today. As the toilet was dark, we switched on the lights, den we went in. After which i saw a bigger cubicle, so immediately rushed to snatch frm Jiah Li. Hahaha... so fun... But something freaky happened after tt. I heard a sound which sounded like moaning, however it onli lasted for less den one sec. I tot tt it was Jiah Li who was toking to me. However when i asked her she say she din say anything. Den i asked whethershe gt wince or something a nt. However she said she din produce any sound at all. OMG!! Wad was tt? Den both of us kept quiet till we came out to the sink area. Then Jiah Li told me tt when i asked her the qns, she was actualli wanting to ask me too. Tt means both of us both heard the same sound. After which we saw a few cubicles door seems to b closed thus we assumed tt someone was inside. However, when we went out we switched off the lights in the toilet but we heard no sound thus shows tt nobody's inside. After which both of us started discussing abt the incident, trying to find some scientific explaination the incident. We tot it may b someone who came into the toilet to wash hands n left shortly. However, firstly we din hear any footsteps and secondly no sound of the tap. Second assumption was mayb someone pass by the corridor who made the sound. However, if so, surely the person's frens would commend on tt moaning sound. Other then that, if is someone walk pass surely there would b more sound den tt less den one sec moaning sound. OMG!!! FREAKY !!!! Doubt i would enter tt toilet again...

Da Vinci code

2006-06-02T23:20:00.000+08:00

I went out with kylie on thurs to watch Da Vinci code. Met Kylie at city hall MRT station at noon, then we went to Marina Sq to purchase our movie ticket. We took the 3.20pm show, so tt we would have ample time to have lunch. We went to the food court to eat. haha... It was so crowded. We sat on the same table as another man tt kept on looking at us wif a weird look. SCARY!!! He look a bit pervertic. haha... nvm...

Bought new hair accessories. haha... a clip tt look like candy bar and a rubber band wif ribbons on it. haha... so cute!! Anyway, we walked round n round the mall till both of us were so tired!! so we went to Mcdonalds for a drink and twister fries. After which we make our way to the cinema...

Da vinci code was super super super nice... haha... Although both of us had read the bk quite some time ago, but it was amazing hw we still can recall bits n pieces of the details of the story as the show went on. There was a veri gruesome and disgusting scene and tt's the part hw Silas whipped himself. Omg... He looks ghostly and freaky. haha... Luckily not many details were taken out from the original story from the bk. Although the details of Opus Dei was little, but on the whole the show is great! Although i knew the ending of the show even b4 i watch the movie, i still enjoy it... haha...

Anyway after tt went to KFC for dinner. And after which we walked over to the shopping mall opp Suntec city (I forgot hw to spell it. haha. ) to visit Candy Empire. haha...

Haiz... anyway after which i realise tt the meeting was onli for ppl gg for the NYEC, and ppl who nid to b present would get sms from the exco members. haha... Heave a sigh of relief.

Today is also the datedue for the geog board game proj. Haiz... Actualli tot can go home straight after geog lecture, but b cos of an irresponsible person, end up gt to stay b hind to help to cut the cards. I was extrememly fed up at tt time. Cos whoever it is r suppose to b in charge of the cards part den she print le but nvr cut, den she MSG PPL at 4am to tell ppl to bring scissors to cut the cards, yet the person in charge din bring a scissors to help out. Wad is the world coming to!! This is atrocious. I meant i can understand tt u finish late thus msg at 4 am, i can understand tt it is emmergency thus u nid help to complete so tt the proj can b submitted on time... but wad i cannot tolerate is tt she actualli dump the thing for ppl to do wifout even showing sign of wanting to help out. (by at least bringing a penknife or scissors.) I cannt take it tt she take for granted tt ppl will definitely help her out. IT IS MY CHOICE TO HELP OUT, BUT I HAV NO OBLIGATIONS TO HELP OUT IN COMPLETING WORK TT R LEFT BEHIND BY IRRESPONSIBLE PPL. Unless u can tell me tt u can use ur fingers or other body parts to cut paper wifout jagged ends etc appearing, den i hav nothing to say. Haiz... i'm jus fustrated. haiz... wadever, i'm jus gonna pray hard tt i would nvr hav to do proj wif tis kind of irresponsible ppl again, although i noe tt tis world is filled wif this kind of ppl.

It's been quite some time since i last posted... Lotsa things had happened during tis few days. Both pleasant and unpleasant.

Sat: It was a terrible day. Was extrememly fed up wif some ppl. All that they care is their own convenience and pleasure. Haiz... I'm dumbfounded and i seriously cant b bothered wif such ppl. No wonder my piano teacher mention tt many ppl nowaday r veri self-centred. Haiz... Jus learnt the art of saying "no" to things tt r nt to my advantage. I'm nt gg to think of other ppl's convenience anymore. Y do tt when ppl take it for granted and when comes to your own convenience they jus ignore. Haiz...

Sun: I went for piano lesson and i actualli took 1h 30min to finish my theory work. haha... My teacher said tt i'm so slack. haha... But wad to do?

Then bought a Doreamon "Noddy" for my dad.

In the evening, I went to collect my SMTA Performers' festival's certificate and the adjudicator's report at the Meridien Shopping centre. The shop, Music essential, was super hard to find. Went round the building quite some time and i called up the shop to ask for the location even. It's front door was actualli at the outside of the building. Haiz... I had a greatest shock of my life... I was expecting a certificate of participation (COP). But, guess wad?? I'm awarded 'highly commended'!! I was so happie. haha... Although it is jus slightly better den a COP, but i'm still glad, cos i seriously think that COP looks ugly of cert... Hee... I received my complimentary score too. Actually i was suppose to buy Debussy's score, but guess wad the score tt i chose for my comlimentary score was actually the exact book that i need. Haha... Save money!! haha... Along wif the Debussy book was Brahms piano pieces, a book of love songs and 'The carnival of animal'... Haha...

After which, my family and my dad's colleague when to a vietnamese restaurant to eat. The food was quite nice. The vietnamese styled curry chicken was veri veri nice. But too bad, i was too full and thus could nt finish up the curry. Dad's colleague was from Argentina and he was rather comical in tis actions. Other than that, he also told lotsa humorous jokes, and everyone had a wonderful nite together chatting. We went home at 10 pm and i rushed my geog tutorial out till 2 am at night.

Mon: I went back to school for make up lessons and when to J8 for lunch b cos the geog tut was cancelled. I rush out the tut yet it was cancelled. Jus don't understand y ppl wanna persuade the tutor to cancel the tut? aren't tis ppl worried abt their mid yr exam? or r they jus so confident tt they will do extrememly well for their geog in mid yr. Haiz... Anyway, i bought a pair of ear stud and plain chain for my mum. Bought it frm Perlini's Silver. haha... the usual shop...

Tue: When back to sch jus for GP lecture. haiz... realli waste of time to travel to n fro. Got bac my GP compre test. haha... Tot i would fail cos i fell aslp while reading the passage. However i passed!!! haha...

Today, i went J8 wif Jas. haha... we ate Roti Prata at the food court. Wah... The Prata was expensive. haha... First time eating prata in a food court. haha... Anyway, went shopping at Muji again. Bought a small notebk. hee... After which, i realised tt i was late for my piano lesson... Took bus 53 from Bishan interchange. However, after a few stops teacher called to say tt she had forgotten abt my lesson. So, lesson was cancelled. haha... If i noe earlier, would hav went to watch Yangzheng pri's musical "Cactus tales", as all the tutors were given complimentary ticket for the afternoon show. When i reached home, i chat wif Mrs Koh online. haha... wanna find out about tmr's tut cos i wanna plan for my movie outing wif Kylie tmr. haha... Looking forward to watching Da Vinci Code wif Kylie tmr... haha... Miss ya kylie... haha...

Pok did a last 5 sec count down to the end of the term, during our last period of lesson today. haha... so cool, the bell realli went off after her counted zero. haha... Anyway, after tt Bee Chin, Gillian n i went J8 to shop for our proj stuff. haha...

When went to popular n gt all our stuff le, den when ard to shop for fun. We went to the usual Mini toons, den Action city. so sad, din c any nice hello kitty stuff ard. And lately wif the obssession over the voodoo dolls, mini toons has a whole shelf of it. OMG, they realli look creepy n disgusting. Haha... Ok, probably onli i find it disgusting. haiz...

When to look for the shop MUJI after tt, cos everytime i onli remember tt i wanna go there after i left J8 on the bus which would pass by a place where i can c the signboard of MUJI on the J8 building. haha... Anyway i found it, and shop there... The things there r so nice. It is nt those tt r colourful, thus attract my attention. It is the plain n patternless, tt i fell in love wif. i like the files n notebooks etc, but they r quite ex. haiz... but i bought the pens. hee...

Anyway after tt, we went home... On the bus, something crazy happen. I took bus 59 which would go to Toa Payoh, den go bac to Eunos area via express way. Den on the bus there was tis woman tt tot the bus will go straight to some other parts of Toa Payoh and took the bus. However when reach the junction tt the bus turning onto the express way den she realise tt the bus nt turning tt way, den she ask the bus driver to let her alight even when the place does nt hav a bus stop. haiz... the bus driver say cannt cos it violates the rule and he may get fine if he get caught. So there was a quarrel. haiz... That woman is so unreasonable, she scolded the bus driver despite the whole thing being her fault. She said wad she rush of time la, den go Eunos nid take 1 hr bus bac la. haiz... i mean when u make a mistake shoudn't u face the consequences. haiz... Anyway i jus find the woman's reaction unreasonable cos she scolded vulgaritites at the bus driver for nt letting her alight. haiz...

Once upon a december

Words and Music By Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty

Anya:
Dancing bears

Painted wings

Things I almost remember

And a song someone sings

Once upon a December

Someone holds me safe and warm

Horses prance through a silver storm

Figures dancing gracefully

Across my memory

Royal Ghost Voices:
Aahh...

Anya:
Someone holds me safe and warm

Horses prance through a silver storm

Figures dancing gracefully

Across my memory

Far away, long ago

Glowing dim as an ember

Things my heart

Used to know

Things it yearns to remember

And a song Someone sings

Once upon a December

Hope tt our proposal would b approved, den can sell drinks and food during the carnival.

Thurs: So fustrated lately. Thanks to mrs xx. I jus hate it tt she instead of encouraging me to improve my results, she ask me to drop it to H1. Isn't tr suppose to encourage their students to work harder to achieve gd results? Hw come she is promoting escaping frm problem? Hw come she is asking ppl to gif up? Seriously i was extremely angry wif her suggestion, after all it is only the first test and the retest. Anyway, i stroongly believe tt perserverance is the key to success. Hw can she jus ask ppl to drop wifout thinking wif her pea brain. Oops... shld b tt the brain is too small for usage. Anyway enough tok abt her, y make her the subj of my blog? It would taint my blog, and anyway she is too trival for mention.

When to cut my hair haha... My hair so short nw. haiz... sad ah,... Den reach home quite late. Actualli had ask Jiah li to play maple wif me. haha... but end up she gt caught in traffic jam so cant play wif me. slept at 11 plus.

Fri: Went Kusu Island today. haha... The place had 2 temple. One is the chinese temple and the other is a muslim one. Then my mum prayed. The special thingy is tt there r a lof of tortoise there. The chinese temple had lotsa tortoise. haha... so cool. There is also a special pond there tt had lotsa torroise. I'm so fasicinated over the number of tortoise. At the pond there is a struture over the top of the pond to add as shade for the tortoise. Den there was one tortoise tt manage to climb to the top of the shade, and accidentally fell off the struture rite into the pond b low. haha. Look as if the tortoise committing suicide. haha. Anyway the other tortoise b low tot there was food n crowded over the spot where the tortoise fell into. haha. so funnie. Den there is one reali big tortoise tt threaten another tortoise and stop it frm entering the water. haha... I'm so fascinated over those tortoise. They r so cute!!!! Reminds me of the 2 tortoise tt i had when i was young.

3rd time back in 2 wks

2006-05-06T22:16:00.000+08:00

Yesterday, was supposingly the day tt my Ct gg to run our 2.4km run. However, as i was ill, i was excused. So irritating, due to someone's slow reaction, my fren actualli miss by 0.04s. Tt's so ridiculous. Anyway, din had Maths tut today, cos tutor went for election briefing, thus was dismissed earlier!!

Anyway, after dismissal, went down to CCHMS to wait for kylie. Had decided to accompany her bac to collect her O lvl cert. Had coffee at the coffee shop tt we used to eat at (outside sch). Then make our way into sch. As it was exam period, so the sch was deserted. Fed the fish with the bread tt kylie brought. haha... (poor tortoise, they slow reaction so din get to eat much) After tt, we tok to Mr Davamoni n also went up the newly renovated CCA block tt is called Innosphere nw. The whole building looks so nice, and nt as creepy as it used to b. It also b came the centre for chinese excellence. Saw lots of ppl in sch. Hee... Met Rumin and she chased after me to hug me. OMG. frightened me !! Haha... Anyway, after which we played on the old choir piano tt was outside the Lt, cos we waiting for mr tan to finish his lessons wif the o lvl music class.

After which, met him at the piano there, den went to the staff rm wif him to chit chat. Gossip abt college life, suitors and saw Joash's passport. After tt as mr tan gg to KK to fetch his wife, we took a lift to Bugis. Talked abt subj combi, and mr tan tot tt kylie n i r funnie, cos we tried to compete to c who die faster. haha... den mr tan told us abt hw he almost when deaf, and he even went into such great details on hw he left the cotton bud at his ears n he accidentally hit against his ear n the cotton bud went inwards. It was gross... I jus realised hw prone to accident he is. (Injured eye, ear, and broke his finger, all seems to b injuries tt is fatal to a pianist, but luckily, he recovered). Really had a great chat wif mr tan.

After which, kylie n i had dinner at Yoshinoya, den i had to go bac NYJC to watch the drama nite performance. It was called " Five Foot Way". The actors n actresses were gd, but the story plot was rather dull n short. The story was abt hw a Chinese killed a man n hw another chinese woman accused a Malay teen of doing it, jus b cos of his race. Anyway, i took bus home after the drama, n was caught in traffic jam b cos of the workers' party's rally at Serangoon stadium. When i reach home i was dead tired and i went to slp after bathing and gg online for a bit.

Omg, only such a short period of time, mr soon actualli forgot our name and which class we were from. haiz... Standing outside HOD rm for such a long time, yet mr soon din notice our presence till i decide to call him on his hp. Den like b4, he still loves commenting me when i laugh or smile. After toking for like an hr or so, we decide to go over to look for mr lee.

Looking at the condition of his hair realli makes me depress. his hair is becoming so white, due to stress. haiz... I tink 4IT '05 realli disappoints him. Den we chit chat abt Jc life and the diff in culture of cchms student n other sch student. He says tt in JC when discover tt one chapter cannt cope wif, mus put it aside first till hols, cannt keep on trying to catch up, cos we end up missing on the new chapter tt follows. ( board the nxt train instead of waiting at the train station trying to catch up, or even stand n wait as many trains pass by)

After which we went to the 3rd floor staff rm to find mr so. Hee... who noes i gt scared by ms munirah at the door. I screamed b cos she scared me. After tt jas n i was in the rm at the staff rm doing work. haha... So funnie... after tt mr so went off to do something leaving us in the staff rm, den we tok to mr gan. He kept on asking me wad makes him look slack, den i ask him mus work faster and mus nt tok crap. haha... He actualli realli make an effort to walk faster. haha. so funnie. After that, at 7 plus, mr gan left to go home, den the staff rm b came veri quiet. I was scared.

My ear b came extremely sensitive to the sound of the surrounding when it gets so quiet. I heard sound of ppl typing, but when i called to check whether ms munirah still there, nobody ans. I was scared, den i msg mr so ask him when he coming bac. Haha, he ask jas n i go check who still inside staff rm, but both of us dun dare to check, so msg bac ask him come bac check. haha. but den after tt when ms munirah came out to photocopy things, den we realise tt she was still ard. haiz... scared me la... Den mr so say y we so scared. haha... but cant b help wad, i'm scared of the dark. haha...

When mr so n ms munirah left le, jas n i sat at foyer. It was so rare tt i ever stay in sch till so late. My dad came to pick me up at 8 plus. I miss cchms...

My 3rd Talentime

2006-04-12T21:27:00.000+08:00

Last fri ( 7th april ) was the annual talentime in CCHMS. That was my 3rd talentime. haha... I had been in the organising committee for the past 2 yrs, does the strong emotional attachment to it. Anyway, talentime '06 was named as captivate. haha... i went bac to cchms for the event. Realli enjoy myself although the atmosphere was nt as high as tt of talentime '05 adrenalize.

Anyway, on fri, i had pe lesson thus my legs ache and i'm sweaty. Nonetheless, i still decide to go bac to chung cheng for talentime(TT). As wingki ends late tt day, thus i decide to make a trip home to bathe b4 gg bac to cchms. As pre arranged, we wore the TT'05 crew tee bac.

When i arrived bac in sch, i met Sin yee at the foyer n we went to the Lt together. We watched the trial runs, n also met my juniors in the LT. After tt saw Mrs Tan n Joash. His grown so much since the last time i c him. hee...

When wingki finally came, we realised tt we did nt had any food for dinner, so we called Mac. However, it onli came at 7.15pm, and both of us had to eat it at the corner of LT quickly b4 the start of TT. TT started when all the audience r seated in the Lt and all the crew members stood by the side of the Lt. We had lightsticks and had great fun doing lame acts wif it.

The Star war theme song was used tis yr for the starting of the event. haha... The event went on smoothly as like previous yr, hwever, the audience were nt as high n wild like previous yrs. a bit sad la... Anyway, wingki, sinyee n i were at the side door of the Lt watching and chit chating at the same time. It was enjoyable.

At the end of the event, we met up wif Amanda n helped the ppl to clear up the Lt b4 gg to the music rm to collect our bags. It was long since i saw the music rm tt we had used to mug for our music"o" . The yamaha piano's no longer there, onli left wif the Bohemia one. After which while walking down the corridor towards the Lt, Amanda mentioned abt the times tt we had move down tt specific corridor during music lesson. How i miss tt time... all the memories of our music camp n lessons flood into my mind... We decide tt we would plan a music gathering n everyone take photo together in college uniform. hw fun can tt b. haha... looking forward to it...

After a long debrief at the Lt we left together. It would b Mr Tan's last TT thus he was so sentimental over it. Haiz... Make me sad over it too. haiz... nonetheless, we would still make it a pt to visit Mr Tan at his hse during CNY. haha...
