what a day...
Today's some day huh? It was just so..i dunno. Just crap. Lecture started at 8am today with social psych, and it was kinda interesting lah..not too bad. Then after that, cuz we didn't have writcom lecture today, we ended up having a 4 hour break. Haiz..we couldn't decide where to go and so we wasted a lot of time not getting anything done. I was really hungry by then. And then finally, we decided on canteen 3, since none of us had tried it before. Went there..saw that the place was quite nice. It was way nicer than canteen 1 and 2, which have very low ceilings. So yeah, this one was quite spacey. Unfortunately, the food SUCKS!!! Oh my..i ordered this half spring chicken thingy, i waited real long for it, and when it came, the inside wasn't even thoroughly cooked! i was quite annoyed by then. the aunties selling the western food were downright rude..only interested in making money. Anyway, i got them to re-fry it. Oh by the way, the chicken was downright salty and the fries way soggy..ended up not eating majority of it. And then i went to get a drink. The lousy auntie have completely no sense in basic courtesy and customer service..oh wait, what customer service?? Bah! I ordered a soursop, and some auntie at the back of the kitchen yelled, "haven't arrive yet". Fine. But then the auntie i made the order to kept preparing stuff and taking out cups and all, so i thought they still had some. Turns out she's not making anything! Then after ignoring me and taking orders from other students, i asked whether she was doing it for me. And of course she said "no". Fair enough. Then i told her to get me watermelon instead, and she even asked me if it was the juice i wanted or the fresh fruit. I told her i wanted the juice. Then after a while i waited and waited and like.."auntie where's my watermelon juice", and she goes like, "huh? watermelon is it?"...what a (swear word)!!! I have never met such a poor pathetic lousy good for nothing sorry bunch of people!!! What an outrage!! I dowan to talk about it anymore. It's over.
Spent the rest of break time in the lib. I watched Fiona's "Signs" DVD. Erm..quite an ok show. Quite freaky during certain scenes, but i thought the ending was lame. Guess what? water kills the aliens. Bah! How ironic. As if it doesn't rain when they're on earth. Puh-lease. Well, at least it was much more enjoyable than my breakfast.
And then i found out later than Mr. Yoka won't be taking my class this term. Oh well, just hope the new teacher is good. And then after that, Mr Lo's class..i have no comment about it. At least i managed to stay awake through the entire lecture so that's fine...
So now i'm at home. Still on very bad terms with my family members. I think they must all hate me now. Never say a word to me, still leave the house without telling me. Fine. And besides, what happened wasn't at all my fault! Anyway, small problem made big. No comment. I dunno what to think of this.
out.

funday
Wednesday...i was shocked to have woken up at 1230pm. i set my alarm clock to 1030 but oh well..i must have switched it off w/o knowing it or i might have slept right thru it. Anyway, was supposed to meet up with jasper at tampines mall cuz long time never met up liao. but didn't quite go all the way to tampines thank goodness. we met up at somerset instead and then we went to pastamania and had lunch. it was already 2+ by then..good enough to build up a huge appetite. i had a beef lasagna and i shared a large pizza with jasper and ivan. oh yah. nice meetin u ivan(jasper's fren)! And oh yes! haha..who would have guessed?? I met anne and ian shopping at orchard cineleisure!!! hahaha...what an unlikely combination don't u think? hehe..but none the less they looked good together. Anyway, me just kept eating until around 3 plus, then went to heeren to look at stuff. Didn't buy anything though..i'm so cheapskate hor? haha.. anyway, met up yet again with Ian and gang again, and this time, we went to cuppage to play pool! So nice..my old friends playing pool with Ian and gang. I think we all had fun :). Anyway, after that, met up with Angel and went to eat chendol at the food fare thingy next to specialist's centre. It was ordinary. nothing fantastic. cannot be compared to malacca. U know, these fat self-centred money-faced fat mama aunty's who run the stall..only know how to stinge on the ingredients. Tell me what's so hard about making a chendol that actually tastes good? I'll bet the aunties would go, "more ice". But no. Use proper gula melaka lah!..and use the big type of red bean..and the coconut milk put more lah..and less ice and that wiggly green stuff lor! you put wiggly green stuff doesn't mean it's chendol okay??? Walau eh...ok lah. after that went to church for band prac. end of story.

trying to do things...
Here i am, lying on my bed, reading this book...

Yeah. that's the book where i'm trying to get some information about how creativity can be taught through the teaching process, and then how Singapore's education system does not promote creativity in learning. Not an easy topic to talk about i reckon, but i dun really have any other topic to squabble about so..i guess i'll settle for this one.
anyway, it's just about a week and a half more before j.yang flies off to UK to study. gosh it's always sad when a friend is going off. i'll truly miss u man. the last discipleship course was truly a great time, i got to know God better, plus i got to know u and the other guys better too. but no worries, there's skype rite? haha..not the end of the world...
anyway, i'm downright HUNGRY at the moment. i get hungry quite easily. could there be worms in my tummy??? i hope not...

up and down
First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!!!
And then secondly, my day. it has been...weirdly fluctuating from the depths of depression to the highs of the highlights. woke up at 930am, then soon after my mom's friends came over to do some work. then it's like...so paiseh u know? and like they were discussing their work at the dining table, which is like so near the toilet? so how to go to toilet unnoticed? no choice lor, just walk past then look see look see. sigh so paiseh.
anyway, went for lunch with dad at ghim moh. the duck rice was really gud. after lunch i went to meet Angel at j8. we walked ard and did nothing much. didn't buy anything except one of those $1 poop-shaped fish cake, a horrible green-tea flavoured jap pancake and a cuppa soy bean milk. that's all. after that i actually wanted to go to Angel's house to get my hair dyed, but we had no time as she had to suddenly go off. so okay lor. what can i do rites? it's not her fault though. it was unforseen. i'm sorry i pulled such a long papaya face. it was unsightly.
then after that as i was on the bus on my way to the mrt station, i rachel called me. my sweet darling haha. thx for keeping me company on the fone. it was real good chatting with you. thx for cheering me up.
and then later on at home it was really boring. the ndp parade was quite alrite i must say. then again, little thing made big - i argued with my parents. me and my big mouth. but anyway it's all over now thankfully. sigh. i don't know why i always get into this kind of thing.
see. my day. fulla ups and downs. wah. just now i had the most piercing splitting headache ever! it just came and set itself full concentration on my right temple. like a drill just pressing there. it was so painful i tell you. and massaging won't work. it felt like it was right at the brain. sigh. i'm stressed.
anyway, things will get better.

Sleepless in Singapore
Hello! It's a fine morning isn't it? ouch! my back hurts. try sitting upright on your bed all night with your laptop on your lap, dying to complete all your assignment. i tell you, your back will hurt like crap. just like me here. anyway, i hate writcom. i never wanted to do journalism anyway. but oh well, it has to be done. i started last night, trying to finish my essay, but i just couldn't. ended up staring at the laptop screen as if i was staring at a fish tank with fish in it. pathetic. but anyway, i didn't sleep at all. spent the whole night till wee morning doing mostly socpsych powerpoint presentation. it's not difficult, just a lot of work to do. that's life in mcm.
anyway, i'm starving! i'm gonna go look for some food. sigh. i wonder if i can last the day or not. think i'll have to fill myself up with cup after cup of coffee, or mocha for that matter =D

another late night
Sigh. here we go again. another late night. you know during Christian fellowship, they told me that first comes many mass commers, then after a while they slowly start to disappear. now i know why. there's just so much work to do!!! sigh.
anyways, did my CATS presentation today. hmms. what can i say? i'm just not very happy with the way things are turning out. i'm not very happy working with my present group, i feel my ideas always get crushed, and the whole environment is so oppressed. and during today's presentation? i dunno what to say. i mean, even though your product doesn't turn out so workable, you don't stand in front, dominate the scene with your ugly butt facing the audience and try to fix the thing. i mean, yes it's ok to try to fix it. but don't look like you're fumbled and don't look as if you're having a hard time! it's just poor presentation skills! and for cryin out loud. their england is horrigible!!! can't stand it. anyone else in my CATS class reading this, want to recruit me as your new groupie? i'm good...honest =D
then oh yeah. this is so original. at the end of the whole CATS class. my lecturer goes, "i'm very proud of you all. you all did a wonderful job. i'm very touched, you all put in a lot of effort. from the bottom of my heart, i love you all very much." I was like...i don't know. i seriously don't doubt her sincerity, she's a very very nice teacher. i was touched too actually. i thought we all did a terrible job in class, but she sees our efforts, not our product. God bless her soul.
anyway that's about all. nothing much happened. that's all for now. peace.

beautiful day
today was quite a thrill! i illegally brought food into a place where food was not allowed, and i had to duck under the table to grab a bite so as not to be seen! hahaha. it was quite fun lah.
yay! i finally got my laptop fixed so that i can connect to NPNet. about time too! waited almost a month to get that done, but now that it's done, yay!!!
so that was school for me. anyway, i went to church after school. took bus 154 straight there. gone there for bible study. we're doing the book of daniel together with revelations. very interesting! ended at around 645pm. hung around with friends till about 7 before heading down to orchard paragon to meet me family. amazing. the mrt is so packed! and it was already full to the doors and people still and push their way thru. very cramp, hot and smelly! smells really unfresh. it's the smell of stressed people after a heavy day of work. had to watch where i put my hands, it was so cramp that i could be touching someone's butt if i put my hand down. the safest place? either in my pocket or on the hanging handle bars. place your hands anywhere else and you could be the proud receiver of a tight slap. anyway, finally reached soup restaurant at paragon. the food there is not fantastic but the price is. tastewise is just ordinary and rather salty. don't think i will be going back there in a long time.
so that was my day. beautiful day that the LORD has made. i think it was perfect.

during lecture
so here i am, typing away during principles of marketing lecture. it's kinda boring. i find that i can't really concentrate. i dont know why. i guess it just ain't fun to have a lecture after lunch - harder to stay awake.
anyway, today is office wear day at T106. quite fun. i'm wearing my kenji button shirt with light khaki dress pants. i brought a silver tie as well, it's in my bag. i did wear it but i think i look like a dork with it on cuz everybody just stares.

a bit embarassing. i don't like turning heads. but anyway, syed wore his greyish blue light blue shirt and a silver tie and yihan wore a white shirt with his old school tie. his poor shoes decided to quit on him so they just split haha. poor guy.
man. i know that some of our lecturers read our blogs. i don't know why they do, but they just do. so sorry but no secrets to hide here.
ok lah. kinda bored but i guess i'll log off now and just listen to Lo. hmmm. the coffee ain't working. nvm.
Out.
