When the traffic was lesser.. went to help xiao yuan with the multi cam printing stuff.. take a look at out front page! Awesome right?? haha.. i guess our next proj is revealed to the world le.. haha..

Spent like $20 on this proj manz.. quality paper.. lotsa ink.. gosh.. the things we do to get an A..

while waiting for the stuff to print.. we formed a Jarrett Fan Club.. Hui Qing's the prezident, i'm the vice-prez, andrea's the quarter master, Bhavna is the treasurer, Crystal and Cheryl are the honourary members.. wahah.. and guess what? jon seto is the 1st lady! haha.. la-dee-dum!

After printing.. went to bind.. then sorta walked arnd alil.. got bombarded by pple selling us stuff.. jarrett and i bought tarts from ee lin.. he wanted to buy pizza.. (we all didn't have lunch la).. but in the end didn't.. den headed to the CMM band.. the Jarrett Fan Club screamed for Jarrett to play and sing.. haha.. it was damn funny.. he was blushing like mad.. and we, hte groupies, were just going mad for the fun of it.. haha.. So he did.. with Owen on vox also.. Aloy on drums, Adam and Krystal on guitars.. haha.. it was good! Jon See and James also sang other songs.. they're good.. and there were year ones playing also.. haha.. CMM kids are really talented pple..

After handing up the work.. went to look for Angel.. to just walk arnd.. i think Business and Design School are the most happening places la.. hahaz.. i bought a crepe with butterscotch ice-cream from HTM.. yum!

2005-08-03T21:12:00.000-07:00

woosh.. half of the week just flew by! Its wednesday already!

Afew updates!

Last Thurs: Was at Sonic Fest '05 in the evening.. at fortcanning.. imagine enjoying great music and God's presence under the stars.. yep.. its was a clear night with little patches of clouds floating by. Terry couldn't make it in the end.. But thankfully Ying Hui was free.. if not the $20 tix would be wasted..

He came from home after school.. met him first den went to PS to meet val.. poor gal wasn't feeling v well.. but after dinner she felt dandy.. =) When we reached the place.. the vibes there were good.. One Authority was playing Bitter Butterfly when we were walkin up the hill of fortcanning.. *pant pant* haha.. The sun was just about to set.. and by the time we sat down on the lush slope, OA was playing its second last song.. the last song (can't remember the title) was quite emo.. haha.. talked about the last moments of Jesus when he hung on the cross.. Kev played a lil of the keyboard.. not bad.. ahah.. den there was one part where it was relatively silent and you could hear a heartbeat sound.. den Josh read from a passage in the bible.. was quite moving.. until it ended a lil abruptly cos their time was up.

Up next was Surreal.. by that time ade and grace came to join us.. Jon was somewhere out there.. we went to check out the merchandise instead.. cos we heard Surreal at Baybeats anyways.. hahaz.. Val got her Vertical Rush Shirt, i got a WMUM dry-fit shirt and Ying Hui got a shirt that all of us wanted but it only came in men's sizes.. sigh.. oh well.. haha.. we spent so long 'shopping' that by the time we went back to the main stage.. Surreal was endning their set.. Jon wasn't feeling too good.. so he sat by the stairs.. poor boy.. but the rest of us just moshed with the rest of the crowd as Planet Shakers led us into high praise and worship! It was fantastic! There was even a time of sharing and testimony by the lead singer.. Smth diff from the prev SFs.. which was good.. =) Was quite tired by the end of it.. ended arnd 1030.. It was a great day..

Fri: had cell at Val's house.. yays! lots of food manz.. yummlicious food.. cooked by everyone (mostly the gals la.. haha) we had a great time of fellowship and sharing and lotsa fruits for dessert! yums! After helping Val clean up the place.. i stayed over cos going home from dover was seriously too far! Ate lots manz.. *burp!*

Sat: Met up with Ade at SF.. went to look arnd for awhile.. den helped YH to change the size of his shirt.. then went to Bras Basar to get decor stuff for later while Ade went to church first for drum lessons.. Went to church at 430.. had a wonderful music prac! wow.. really wow.. haha... after which did some decor for tmr's event! wow.. so many photos to put up.. but i think our effort was worth it.. cos it really looks good! The banner looks the best! Had dinner at the hawker with everyone after that.. at like 9pm! They had char kway teow.. oooo.. oily stuff! but i only had poh piah and tea.. cos was feeling kinda heaty.. *cough cough*

SUNday!: YupZ! ITs THE day! The Sing For you event! yay! Overall.. it went pretty well.. despite some gliches here and there.. had about 70 people in Room #308.. Jackie came.. but unfort Debbie wasn't feeling well.. so she didn't turn up in the end.. Was glad to see new faces.. shi wei brought his brother.. boy.. they really look alike! haha.. I'll upload thoes pics soon! real nice stuff! haha.. Wow.. now i realised there are many talented songwriters in church.. i'm impressed.. i'm inspired..

Monday: Another exciting exciting day!! Our second recording.. Our show title is The Metrosexual.. and Val came down all the way from Dover to help us! Thanks babe! Emily was our director this time.. tho she was a lil nervous, She did pretty well.. i think i have the best Multi-cam group! yays! haha..
Val was a natural.. She was the make-up artist.. showing the 'viewers' (target audience - men) how to look better with some make-up on. You must be going.. eeeewww.. make up on guys?? But seriously.. our model looks quite good with make up on.. and its actually quite minimal. Like conceealer to cover up blemishes, foundation, trim and neaten eyebrows, bronzer/blusher to give the sunkissed look and a lil lipgloss to brighten up those kissable lips! haha.. it was fun.. and yes.. cutie pie Jarrett was our modell.. after a few practices.. he got quite used to the whole routine.. haha.. he's such a sport! Wish i had pics of his made up face to show.. ahha..
I think our whole program was a success! And i think our next one would be too.. we already have an idea for the entertainment prog.. its still under wraps.. but it'll be revealed soon.. its brilliant! haha..

Tues: Can't remember wad i did.. tho i think i didn't do well for my radio production.. sobs.. we'll see the grade next time..

Wed: yes today! i'm quite happy cos i got a wonderful A for my fashion design proj! yays! My dear yong hao also got and A thanks to his persistent calling and asking me how to do.. hmmm.. i wonder how jovin did.. heez.. but anyways.. i'm happy!!.. Next proj will be a collection of 6 on Dolce & Gabbana.. exciting stuff! haha..

Tmr gonna do the stupid SPSS (for those who don't know wad that is.. its actually keying in all the data from my group's 200 surveys).. for BMR.. tedious stuff manz.. but after school.. we'll be visiting Shawn.. the poor guy had gone thru an Op.. and have MC till 22 Aug.. we'll be entertaining him for awhile.. ahah..
oh yes.. and i'm finally gonna be meeting up with Sharu and another guy to discuss the Sports Club stuff.. hope they're nice to me and dun give me a ton of work to design.. haha...

okies.. off to bed now.. tmr's a brand new wonderful day!

2005-07-27T18:33:00.000-07:00

oops.. was like 15 mins late for BMR lect today.. overslept.. haiz.. Tried to understand the lect.. but still not v clear about certain areas.. Ms Chua ended the lect early.. so andrea and i went to do our surveys.. i've left about 20 more to do! yay!

After that went to meet the Sports Club prez at 1pm.. sharu.. they're looking for a graphic designer and photographer.. i guess its an interesting thing to do.. since i dun have any cca anyways.. haaz.. would like a challenge.. :) it was a good meet.. apparently he likes my work.. and asked me to join the sub-comm.. and their camp.. i got a few days to consider.. heez.. really want this post.. but have to see if i have time to commit to this.. hmmm.. *pray about it*..

Bumped into sugar on the way to lunch.. haha.. see you tmr manz!

Met carissa for lunch.. den so happened jovin was sitting on the table beside mine.. asked him and his friends to do da survey.. haha.. yay! had a good talk with cat again.. heez.. love that gal to bits..

aft that had fashion design cds.. its was fun! haha.. my grp had to design men's street wear.. Yong Hao and JOvins' drawings are so cute la.. haha.. we did an army theme.. i think not too bad la.. heez.. just take a look at the pics.. haha..=D

Now i'm home.. editing the multicam script again..

hmmmm.. just heard keng Tzu's mom passed away this morning at 2am.. i'm quite saddened.. altho i'm not really close to her.. i just feel sad knowing someome lost her mom.. i can't imagine life with our my mommy.. i love you mom.. Some of us sending a wreath tmr to the wake.. hope its some sort of comfort to her.. yups..

hmmm.. that's all for blogging today..

TOMORROW! SONIC FEST @ fort canning! YAY!
pple going: VAL, JON, TERRY, ADELINE, GRACE (i think)..
Its gonna be a wonderful day!

2005-07-27T08:01:00.001-07:00

Yong hao's desgin on the left.. Jovin's on the right.. cute hor.. haha

2005-07-27T08:01:00.000-07:00

these are my designs.. not realy nice la.. cos i didn't have much time to do it.. did it in like only 1/2 hour.. =)

2005-07-26T21:32:00.000-07:00

it has been a pretty good week for me so far.. although i'm still up to my neck in projs and stuff.. but its not too bad a week.. handed in my BMR critique.. have to do like 250 surveys by this week.. someone help! hahaz..

hmmm.. i realised smth.. i'm actually enjoying my lessons! Year 2 has been refreshingly hands on compared to last year.. i love multi cam and audio productions.. Broadcast is quite fun too! Taking fashion design for CDS.. which is kinda like a hobby to me.. the only thing i don't really like is BMR.. haha.. but i have pretty good project mates.. so its alrights la..

Multi Cam.. yes.. this is interesting stuff.. i really enjoyed being a director.. being a camera woman was pretty cool too.. there's so many things i wanna master in this module.. i think working behind the scenes in the recording studio is cool stuff! i bed single cam next term would be more challenging.. The next recording is coming up on monday.. 1st Aug.. We'll be doing a segment of a show called The Metrosexual.. yep.. the 7 min segment will show how guys can use makeup to improve they way they look. Its nothing surprising for guys to use makeup nowadays.. but i do personally still prefer au naturale.. haha.. Our lucky model would be cutie pie Jarrett.. haha.. i think he's kinda nervous about being our model.. he tried to back out of it a few times.. but nope.. we think he suits the image.. haha.. whats more he got a new hair cut which shows off his nice warm eyes.. which i think would look really good on screen.. Val would be the make-up artist.. haha.. really hope things turn our alrights.. quite worried cos our director emily is currently sick.. suspected to have dangue.. she's gonna check it out tmr.. but really hope nuthing bad happens to her..
Pray hard my friends...

hmmm.. i think so far Audio pro is my best subject.. Got straight As and a B for my assignments so far.. i'm quite surprised actually.. haha.. cos i dun think i have a raido voice.. and sometimes my pronounciation isn't really fantastic.. but i guess i have an okay voice.. haha.. but like mrs nah said.. having a good voice isn't everything.. is how i use it and accompany it with the music or advertisement.. I love audio pro.. gets my creative juices going.. haha.. but i have much more to learn.. Can't wait for the advanced version in sem 2.. oh yes.. and during the 2 mths hols i'm gonna be involved in producing some segments for LUSH FM.. cool stuff eh?

Tmr Mr Daryl David's gonna critique our Stand upper in class.. kinda nervous about it.. had so many takes before i could come out with a perfect one.. haha.. Last week we played around with the autocue for newsreading in the studios.. it took awhile to get a hang of it.. but seen reading the news on screen my class pple say i'm quite telegenic??!! i'm like.. err.. really meh? haha.. maybe its the makeup and really good lighting.. haha.. well.. we'll see..

Its gonna be a real busy weekend coming up.. Have to come up with a script for multi cam by tmr.. Thurs i'll be at Sonicfest 05 at fortcanning with Val, ade and terry.. anyone wanna join us?? Kev's band One Authority would be playing also.. along with other cool bands - Planet Shakers and SonicEdge.. Tix are at $20 but i may be able to help ya get discounts.. heez.. the fest is running from thurs to sat.. yup.. call me if u wanna go..

Fri there's cell at Val's place.. a more relaxed sorta fellowship this time round.. and i'm gonna be staying over at her place! yay! some quality girlie time! haah..

Sat: Hopefully be able to swim at her place in the morning.. then head down to church in the aft to prepare stuff for the event on sunday..

yeps.. another week is gone.. i hope i'll use it well.. heez.. tired tired tired.. off to do work!
-outz-

- i wanna see you again! -

2005-07-21T09:32:00.000-07:00

my lil baby.. love him to bits and pieces.. haha

2005-07-20T22:02:00.000-07:00

something cool! was eating fruits and cut up an orange.. seems like it thinks its a grapefruit! hahah.. weird right?

2005-07-20T21:22:00.000-07:00

hey ya'll.. yep it has been some time since i last blogged.. i has been a busy week.. the workload rushed towards me at full force since monday.. my sleeping hours have become really irregular.. but i've been eating well.. hehez.. lots of fruits and vegs!

The weekend was good.. went to catch Baybeats at the esplanade on Saturday.. Surreal was awesome! Sunday was another awesome day with church friends.. spent the last part of it finishing up the painting of our banner.. it looks great! Will post up a pic of it soon!

Monday:
1st Multicam recording.. OUr interviewees were 2 guys of a 3 piece band called 52nd Street. Being the 1st Director.. i was really nervous.. every role is impt la.. but i guess the director is crucial to make sure everything runs smoothly and all the takes are perfect. There was some prob with the video tape initially, but with that solved, out 2 recordings were almost perfect! Finished 5 mins on the dot, give or take a few seconds. Great job guys! Thank God i have a really efficient group.. Kudos to them! =)

Tuesday:
Was up all night doing my 20th Century Fashion proj.. altho it seems relatively simple.. there were so many details to consider and add to the proj.. i think i did a pretty decent job.. hahah.. working till 5am really did pay off.. i love this module.. its quite interesting.. hmm.. i'll let ya see the drawings next time.. i hope i get good grades for this.. put in ALOT of effort..

Wednesday:
Had cramps all day.. yuck........................ you should know what i mean.. the woes of being a woman.. hahaha.. =X
Well.. tmr i'm meeting mada for lunch.. yay! and prob go see my dentist too.. better start on my multi cam proposal 2 and BMR IA2.. manz.. deadlines deadlines deadlines.. thankfully i have my friends arnd to support me..

oh yes.. ome more thing to thank God for...
i passed my BOE (Basics of Entreprenurship).. its a pass or fail subj.. no grading.. i almost failed cos i submitted it online a lil late.. not that i did last min work.. i did early.. and submit the hard copy to sch earlier that day.. but my brain was so preoccupied that i forgot to submit it online on time.. manz.. i was quite dead la.. cos if i failed.. i wouldn't be able to graduate with merit.. that means not being to get scholarships.. but thankfully, my teacher said he would see if my paper was good enuf to pass me.. i could only pray and trust in God.. it is afterall my fault.. only could count on His grace.. And yes! God came through for me! i passed! woohoo! I love u Jesus! you're my saviour!

Alrights.. have to get back to work now...

-nites!-

Some events going on:
1) 'Sing for you' - cool music event taking place on 31st July @ COOS from 2 to 4pm...

happy birthday to me! yays! hahaha.. i think my sms today quite high.. really thanks to all of ya who wished me today.. manz.. my last year as a teenager.. its gonna be one cool year..ahhaha...

still.. school work doesn't care about birthdays.. had to be in school from 11 to do rehersal in the studio.. den after that had group meeting with the gals.. our next proposed idea for the second recording is a make-up show.. for metrosexuals! hahaha.. and we're gonna use jarrett as the model.. that is, if he's free to come down on that day.. haha.. if not.. who's free to come help us?? give me a ring!! (oh.. you must have good complexion for obvious reasons.. heez.. :P)

after that.. went to meet ade at my aunts condo to pass her the spare hp.. poor gal.. she lost hers last friday.. the clouds threatened to rain down on us.. but we were able to swin about 10 laps in the pool... then it poured... was supposed to head down to the bbq at pasir ris park.. but decided to wait till the rain stopped.. we ended up slping on the couch.. the weather was so soothing la.. hahaha.. we were like lil pigs...

the rain reduced to a drizzle.. and finally i was able to go for the bbq.. ade went home.. i reached the park quite late.. around 7.. everyone was kinda huddled under the pavillion playing games and stuff while we waited for roger and xiu yi to bring the cooked food from her house.. we placed candles arnd the pavillion cos it was quite dark.. feels like some sort of campfire.. ahah.. we ate, laughed and crapped mostly.. hahaha.. had a good time..

accompanied carmen to the toilet.. den when i came back.. there was this yummilicious looking chocolate cake.. wow.. i didn't expect it.. i thot all the food was quite enough le.. but there's always room for a birthday cake.. yay! hahahahah.. i'm just really happy.. thanks carmen...

reached home at almost 11.. my mom bought mocha almond ice cream.. ooooo.. yums! i think i really ate a lot today.. hahah.. but who cares.. its my party and i'll eat if i want to..! hahah.. i'll worry about the excess fats tmr.. hahaha.. (yes jon, i won't eat so much next time)..

Wednesday:
Woke up bright and early today.. at 10am.. haha.. decided to do my cds drawings today.. have been procrastinating for quite some time le.. so far i only drew a few drawings.. needed to do more..

had some yummy fruits and an egg sandwhich for lunch.. and a scoop of ice cream for dessert.. then sat down and started doing my work..

*beep beep*

yep.. it was my hp.. terry asked me to come down to sentosa to join he and his friends.. here's sorta our conversation at arnd 2pm:

me: huh? but i don't really know your friends leh..
ter: they're friendly pple la.. anyways i wont really be playing with them much.. just gonna read a book or slp here..
me: but a bit mah fan for me la.. cos den i have to bring my stuff there to draw.. next time la..
ter: i can help u draw! come la may ann.. don't worry about my friends k..
me: hahah.. err.. but i'll reach quite late like arnd 4 plus? (i take a damn long time to go harbour front)..
ter: its alrights.. i'll still be here.. come ok?
me: hmmm.. okay then.. u go have fun first.. i'll give u a call when i reach..

so yep.. i went to sentosa to draw.. hahaha..

by the time i reached sunset bay it was 430.. he was in the shower.. i sorta saw his friends.. but i just sat at the benches and started doing my work..

den he came.. hahaha.. he looked orange! wearing an orange shirt.. carried an orange crumpler.. had an orange band arnd his leg.. and his skin was supper tanned.. face a lil burnt.. hahaha..
his friends are a lil funny la.. looked at us like we're dating or smth.. why can't 2 pple have a platonic rship?? goodness.. singaporeans ah..

the rest of his friends washed up.. and he came over and sat with me at the benches.. expected him to just sit with me to read.. didn't expect him to really help me do some drawings.. really nice of him.. and he can draw! haha.. not bad la i think..

his friends went off for dinner.. and it started drizzling.. so we sat at the shelter and just drew and talked.. i'm quite surprised how well we could just talk about things in our life.. talk about God.. our family.. our friends.. personal stuff.. the kinda gal he likes.. his ideas about like and relationships.. it was an open friendship.. and i like that.. =)

the rain stopped aft awhile.. (and i met shen zhi at sunset bay.. so surprised!).. heez.. he decided he was hungry.. so we went to look for food.. the weather then was really nice.. cool and chilly.. like natural aircon.. hahah.. we were like splashing in the puddles and talking about weird stuff like snails and insects.. ahha.

decided to head back to main land to eat.. the yellowline bus was pretty crowded.. with all the tourists.. beside us was this ang moh couple.. the lady was taller than terry! and u can just imagine how tall the guy was.. gosh.. i felt like a dwarf.. ahhah

terry continued drawing on the bus.. while i stoned awhile.. turns out he was drawing a fairy version of me.. hahaha..

went to harbourfront to eat.. we're on a budget.. but we were indecisive pple also.. ahah.. ended up eating at the food court.. i realised he's really healthy.. bought fresh tomatoes to eat b4 his dinner..

after dinner.. he finished up the drawing.. while i drew cartoons.. haha.. we talked about chocolates and candies.. yum! strawberries and cream.. max brenner and charlie and the chocolate factory! if i wasnt so full.. i would have salivated right there.. hahah..

it was arnd 9 when we left that place.. could see that he was pretty tired.. i took 30 home while he took 10... slept like a pig on the bus.. i guess i won't be running tonite.. haaz..

i'm really glad to have gone to sentosa.. got to know him a lil better.. =) i like friendships like that.. thanks terry..

hmmm.. really tired le.. gonna brush my teeth and flop onto my bed.. sweet dreams!

oooohh.. its a happy day! i thank God for that! heez.. it is after all sunday! yippie!

woke up bright and early today.. 830 am! heez.. thanks to my bro.. if not i'll be late for bible study.. met jon at the mrt station at 925.. 1st time i'm earlier than him.. wahahaha.. well.. because of my heels.. i had to take the bus to church from queenstown mrt station while jon and my bro brisk walked there..

10am bible study.. such a challange manz.. its really exciting to learn more abt God.. but i just have to keep my eyes open.. haha..i did succeed with the help of my bro's sweets.. it was a good session..

fasted lunch..(stomach growls)

met tom at the foyer.. hmmm.. gonna miss this guy lots manz.. Tom, i'm sure the path you've chosen to serve in the SonicEdge ministry is a God-guided choice.. really gonna miss ya in LOL.. but i'm sure HE has great plans for ya.. Had a great time serving with ya.. see you arnd alrigts.. *smiles*

then its back upstairs for a quick meeting and music prac.. Today David led a pretty good praise and worship.. love the 2nd last song.. its so great to see everyone worshiping the Lord..

jun lan jie shared from Judges 13.. the Beginning of Samson's life.. interesting stuff.. about 1) knowing that God has a purpose for us.. even when we were in our mother's womb.. 2) having a humble and teachable heart.. and lastly 3) having a right response towards God.. had some really good sharing in cell aft the service..

Some cell changes.. Di Liang was transferred over.. while Kian Hong was transferred to Yan's cell.. den also have a new addition to the family- a 16 year old taiwanese guy.. called shi wei.. he kinda looks like di liang.. with a cute accent too.. haha.. the funniest thing is.. he calls me jie jie.. haha.. cute!

After cell.. the girls and i went out to celebrate! ahem.. u shld know celebrate wad le.. heez.. 1st we checked out billy bombers at hereen.. but in the end decided on Marche cos we can share the food and its more worth it..

i tell ya.. we feasted like there's no tmr.. haha

4 plates of rosti.. one snail saussage, 1 ham and cheese crepe, 1 medium rare sirlon steak, 1 ceasar salad w croutons and real bacon bits, 1 stir fry veg and mushrooms, snapple, 2 calamansi drinks, 1 slice cheesecake with strawberry toppings (doubles as a bday cake.. hehe) and a yummlicious waffle with 2 scoops of movenpick ice-cream topped with choc sprinkles, strawberries and choc syrup.. i'm in heaven!

haha.. sounds like a lot rite?

but its only $80 split among 6 pple.. so quite worth it la.. heez.. thanks so much gals.. for making my day really happy! thanks esp to felly.. :) had a photo taking frenzy too.. will upload the pics soon.. heez

some of them went home.. but kev came arnd 830.. we hung arnd a bit then kev, grace, ade and i went to rochor to have some tau hway! hhaha.. i didn't eat la.. too full le.. but just had a soya bean drink..

aft that its a long ride home...

but i'm really satisfied.. its a wonderful day.. and i thank God for that.
*smiles*

2005-07-08T21:02:00.000-07:00

the camera does not flatter me at all.. hmph..

remember i did filming on thurs? well.. watched the tape today.. i keep laughing at myself manz.. i look so.. ewww.. hahah.. really! the camera like added a few pounds to my face.. emphasised the wrong areas.. my hair was a lil messed up cos of the wind.. the only good thing was.. my make up looks alright on screen..

so.. i'm gonna refilm with shawn on monday.. andrea and shi qian have to come out just to film with us.. doing BMR on monday too.. so i guess monday is a proj day.. haaz.. oh well..

so aft viewing the tape.. went down to PS to meet adeline.. she was LATE! as usual la.. but she came with 2 of her sch mates.. together we went to the Black Box at fort canning to take a look at theatrework's garage sale..

it was such an awesome place!

its just a huge room with all the theatre stuff and knick-nacks.. its really quite cool.. the props.. posters... they had lots of costumes lined up.. retro stuff.. different lighting.. cool bags.. shoes.. masks.. old telephones.. fans.. vintage radio.. accessories.. glittery stuff.. hahha.. the works..

rumaging thru all thoes things made me a lil excited kid.. altho most are just second hand stuff.. but they are in pretty good condition..

i got myself a black sling bag.. can fit my laptop.. yay! it has 2 nice buckles in front.. neat stuff! and guess what.. its only 8 bucks! also got an almost new leather belt with a shiny silver buckle for $5.. and helped my mom get this clown dress for the children ministry for $20.. it was an intersting garage sale.. won't hesitate to visit it next season.. last day tmr from 4 to 8pm.. check it out! :0)

after that.. ade headed to sch.. while i went to church for cell..

a funny thing happened in the bus..

there were these 3 guys who boarded the bus arnd orchard area.. prob arnd my age.. quite a cute bunch.. haha.. apparently they were heading to queensway shopping centre.. but the thing is.. 111 doesn't go to queensway.. but it would be quite weird for me to just turn to them and tell them that rite? when reaching queenstown mrt station.. they were like:

guy1: eh, u sure this bus goes queensway?
guy2: should be la.. don't worry can.. listen to ur ipod la..
guy3: *shrugs*
guy1: if we end up in jurong its your fault ah..
guy2: ya la ya la..
guy3: *ignores*

all that time i was staring at them (i was sitting opp them).. trying to like hint them with my eyes.. haha.. but i guess i wasn't obvious enough..

so when i was about to get down at my stop.. i turned to them and said..

me: err.. this bus doesn't go to queensway.. i think ya'll better get down..
guy1: oh manz.. thanks so much.. (turns to guy2) see la! listen to u sure get lost lor..
guy2: sorry sorry
guy3: *shrugs*

haha.. they got down and told them to take 195 from the other side.. heez.. boy did i feel like a good samaritian.. hahahaha..

j-cell was good! Jun Lan jie shared from Psalms 91:1-2,14-16.. go check it out.. good stuff.. i'm really comforted to know that God is always there for me to cry for help to.. someone whom never fails to hold on to me.. to rescue me in my times of trouble.. all i need to do is to love him whole heartedly.. and to ask him..

Our God is an Awesome God..

Alrights.. heading to bed now.. swimming in the morn with caroline and qi.. den having leader's from 2 to 9pm!! hahaz.. God sustain me.. :)

2005-07-07T20:51:00.000-07:00

what a loooooong day..

heez.. woke up a lil late today.. partly cos i slept late the prev night and my bed was really too comfy.. haha.. but oh well.. wasn't as late as shawn..

wanna know why he was late??

Cos he forgot to bring his make-up kit! hahah

dun be surprised la.. he's not gay.. haha.. its just that today we're supposed to do our stand-upper (outdoor news reporting) for broadcast assignment.. den everyone (incl guys) have to have some basic make up stuff on their face so as not to look so washed out on screen..

by the time we left school.. it was past 11.. did some testing outside school.. den suddenly the monitor just died.. turns out we got the wrong battery.. i tell ya.. these equipment are real heavy and expensive stuff.. made up of almost 4 sections.. and carrying em from one place to another was really tiring.. we were sweating like pigs.. and in our semi-formal attire summore.. after fixing the monitor.. we took a cab to tampines.. had lunch.. den started filming under the shady mrt tracks..

Andrea went first.. but we spent a lot of time fussing around her wind-blown hair.. me pinning it.. shawn waxing it.. hahaha.. like her own hair stylists.. but she did really well.. cool and composed like she always is..

Next was Shi qian.. goodness.. she really looks a lil washed out on the monitor.. not that she didn't have enough make-up.. she's just really really really fair.. but she did well too..

den it was my turn.. oh the jitters! haha.. but it was alrights la.. had my hair tied up in a pony tail.. hope it didn't swish arnd that much.. fringe pushed across my forehead.. hope it looks neat enough.. but shawn said i looked like some sec sch kid trying to look mature or like some xiao gu niang.. haha.. wadever la shawn.. i took as long as shawn spent in the Tamp library doing up his hair.. which was about half an hour.. i think i have 4 to 5 good takes on my tape.. i'm satisfied.. :)

Shawn was up next.. could tell he was really nervous.. cos well.. he has this natural hidden ah beng in him.. helped him with his make up.. seriously looks better.. but a lil gay la.. had to pin his side fringe back also.. haha.. but everything just went wrong la after that.. his water bottle spilt water on his shirt.. had to wait for it to dry.. den the camera battery was dying.. filmed him for about half an hour.. and then it died.. but he only had 2 good takes.. so i guess we'll be there at filming him tmr.. haaz..

Took a cab back to school.. reached just on time.. Mr lim was closing up the media biz studios.. luckily we caught him on time.. or else we would have to lug everything back home..

Late for my leader's meeting by then!

Rush rush rush!

David ah.. why u choose to meet at Forum.. you know how far that is?? and i'm in my heels summore.. thanks ah.. was 45 mins late.. but jun lan jie was forgiving as usual.. hmmm.. but it was a good meeting.. time well spent..

reached home at like 11pm.. my mom taped LOST for me.. yay!

tmr's another busy day.. grp meetings aft grp meetings.. then gonna check out theatrework's garage sale at fort canning! haha.. hope i can find some cool stuff like props, posters or costumes.. heez.. den heading to cell at church..

wow.. its the weekends soon.. yayers!

*thanks for the music terence! hope it works!

2005-07-06T22:42:00.000-07:00

wow.. such a wonderful day..

went out with pauline, her sis and her sis bf today..

for what?

Went to look at Pauline's ideal wedding location and scout for wedding gowns! (err.. yeah.. she's like 8 years older than me.. hehez)

so exciting! hahah.. 1st we headed to fort canning... the grounds are beautiful! So rustic and romantic.. really quite a nice place to hold a wedding dinner on a cool autumn evening. With nice lights and soft decor, this place could be transformed into a nature wonderland.. got to look at pictures of previous wedding dinners held there.. wow..

Pauline also thought of having it at raffles country club, sentosa or the zoo.. why the zoo? Nah.. its not amongst the animals.. but there's this scenic grounds beside a pond where the wedding dinner could be set up.. and she'll arrive there in a horse-drawn carriage.. wow..

After that, we went to Ritz Couture to try on wedding dresses.. not me of course.. gosh.. she looks real stunning in those gowns.. i'm amazed at how a dress can transfrom a pain jane into a princess (well.. she's not a plain jane in the 1st place, but u get what i mean).. we looked at photos.. discussed the packages.. blah blah blah.. so many things to consider!

all i could say is wow.. its like a dream come true to get married (of course to the right person).. i could spend all day dreaming about my perfect wedding.. hahah.. but that won't happen anytime soon ba.. have to complete my responsibility as a student 1st.. heez.. but i guess.. i really want to save myself and keep myself pure.. and make sure the next guy i go steady with is the one i will marry in the end.. serious stuff eh? haaz.. but i guess.. what is the point of a r'ship if it doesn't end in marriage? heez..

well.. so i'm just waiting..

and of course.. it MUST be a God centered relationship.. yays!

Only He knows what's best for me..

okies.. its getting late.. tmr will be another busy day.. will be out filming with my proj grp mates.. hHaha.. kinda nervous.. hope no one keep looking at us.. heezz

sweet dreams everyone!

i realised,, poly is getting a little superficial. especially the lecturers.. not to bad-mouth my tutors la.. they are really nice.. but i think there are 2 sides to them.. its scary sometimes.. they're unpredictable..

but anyways.. i really like my class.. its made up of a bunch of wacky people.. my close friends like andrea, carissa and yew chong are in e same class.. so are madcaps like belinda, shawn see and carryn. these people really make the class wild.. hahah.. belinda is just such a laugh la.. just one look at her face.. and i'll just crack up.. she has such a rubber face and weird sense of humour.. put her and carryn together and u'll get two crazy hens! hahah.. shawn is and individual clown who acts his shoe size more than his age... he thinks he's really cute and adorable.. but only a blind person would think that.. ahhahah.. oops.. sorry.. being mean here.. he gets along really well with gals.. but in a spastic kinda way.. he's a self entertainer and just a big fat doofus.. hahah.. i wonder how jarrett puts up with him.. ahh.. jarrett is the cutie in my class.. seriously.. he's cute in a quiet sorta way.. but he's actually got a lot to say when u get to know him better.. he has the nicest eyes and smoothest voice! hahah.. gushing here.. but he's a good friend la.. haha.. and he sounds awesome over the radio.. i think he shld give it a shot in the raido industry..

My class is full of hot babes and only 4 guys.. how sad rite? but i still love it..

My 1st term in year 2 has been full of ups and downs.. many things happened but i prob won't say it here.. sad stuff.. happy stuff.. stressful stuf.. but i'm really glad and thankful for the wonderful people arnd me esp the girlies.. hehehz..

really wanna get stuff done during these 2 weeks so that when sch reopens i won't be so overwhelmed..
1. BMR group proj
2. 21st Century Fashion proj
3. Multi cam script
4. Broadcast stand-upper filming

2005-06-13T22:49:00.000-07:00

oh wow.. it has beed a long time eh? hahaha.. have been really busy.. or rather just plain lazy to update this blog.. i seriously find it a waste of time to blog.. haha.. but why am i blogging now? cos i'm bored.. its not as if i have nothing to do but i'm just not in the mood to do anywork..

1st thing.. I"M SICK!! since 2 weeks ago.. actually i got better but not completely.. den feel quite sick again on friday.. on mediaction right now.. having weird moods.. most of the time lethargic and no motiviation to do anything.. hate this unhealthy feeling.. yuck!! i wanna get well!! pray for me k..

i'm into the 4th week of school right now.. still coping alrights.. but its quite stressful.. unlike the 1st year of poly where you more or less know whats going. this year however, everything's relatively new.. so if u miss a few lessons (tutorials are like 4 hours long!!) you'll end up being quite blur abt what's going on.. but its been interesting so far.. learning how do to audio productions, handling studio productions.. being in diff roles like camera man, director, floor manager etc.. and my cds is quite interesting also.. 20th century Fashion.. quite interesting.. hahah.. get to design clothes.. also make a few wacky engin friends from there.. its not a bad class.. :P

this saturday going wind surfing with some church friends.. that is, if i get well by then.. haha.. i really want to go! haven't really enjoyed a sport for such a long time already.. plus its been a long time since i felt the warmth of the sun on my skin.. MMmmMmm.. Anyone interested to come? just give me a call ya?

i really miss year one sem one class.. it was the most fun time of my poly life.. hanging out with the 3 gays, pam, andrea, carissa, angel, sam and hui min without any worries about our work.. hahah.. but i guess we have to move on somehow.. seems like everyone's busy with other things that we hardly get to hang out anymore.. i know this sounds weird.. but the term is coming to an end in a few weeks.. so fast rite?! we like just started not long ago.. yup.. the one week term week starts from the 11th of july.. so we're like halfway thru the term right now..

goodness.. time sure flies.. before i know it, i'll be turning 19 already.. wow.. that sounds really old.. hahaha..

well.. really must get back to my work already.. must must score well for this sem.. cos didn't do really well for my prev sem.. gotta buck up! heez..

will try to blog soon!

_huggies_
miss u pple!

2005-05-02T19:34:00.000-07:00

*cough cough*

*choke*

*ahem*

*push away the cobwebs*

manz.. this blog is sure dusty.. rotting almost.. haha.. its been like.. hmm.. over a month since i've blogged.. so many things have happened.. happy stuff.. sad stuff.. stuff that took up a lot of my time.. or maybe i'm just plain lazy to blog.. haha..

well.. i'm currently having my holidays.. actually a month has already passed.. left about 3 more weeks to go.. manz.. time does pass real fast! i'm going balai this weekend with about 6 other youths to help out in this small church.. quite excited.. gonna help out in the children ministry.. i think they are really needy.. then don't have proper education.. and probably have much much less clothes than i do.. really want to bring some love to them and show them God's Love and compassion too.. gonna be entertaining them with puppets and give them sweets.. felly and i supposed to make chocolate flowers for the mothers in that church cos its mother's day.. but we haven't really started anything yet..

rush rush rush..

today.. attended the leader's meeting at Normanton Part from 9am.. was quite good.. but the buffet was better.. haha.. (manz.. gotta exercise more!).. right after that.. had the youth leader's meeting.. it was really interesting.. really enjoy all the times we come together to discuss about LOL stuff.. and ways to improve our cell.. i really think i must put more effort in attending to the needs of my cell members and make the effort to call them and build rapport..

Talking about cell.. felly and i were thinking about changing the cell name.. we are now called Redeemed Creations.. during the batam trip.. thot of changing it to FUEL cell.. it has double meanings.. one is.. well.. directly fuel cell.. an energy source.. our cell is full of young robust pple.. full of energy and passion for God.. another is FUEL stands for Father's Ulimited Everlasting Love.. quite cool ehz? I've already designed the logo.. only have to propose it ot jun lan jie..

Yesterday.. just had our youth sunday.. it was really good.. KH led the PW.. there were 7 co-leads.. val played the piano, me on keyboards, ron on bass, jon on drums.. had really positive feedback..esp.. surprisingly on our bumble bee attire.. haha.. yellow polo top with dark jacket and pants.. we look like some executives from some company.. hahaha.. hmmm.. KH sang his song during the offering time.. it was really nice and meaningful.. that guy has talent manz..

i think a lot of pple have been wrinting songs this hol.. i think i would too.. Val has already written 3! wow.. haha.. better get started..

was thinking of changing my blogskin.. hmmmmmmmm....

there's so much stuff i still need to do b4 sch starts and the workload starts comming in..

1. gotta get val, fel and my little business proposal up and done.. been procrastinating.. haha.. thanks to fel.. she got a sponsor! yay!
2. wanna go for some jewellery making class.. think i got a creative flair.. maybe can go smthing like that as a hobby..
3. need to get JEANS! at least one more pair.. i only have one pathetic one..
4. Need to get new tops for sch.. manz.. i wear out my clothes real fast..
5. gotta meet up with my cell member more often.. build up a better rship with them..
6. oh ya.. and need to pack my room.. at least b4 sch starts..
7. not be lazy.. update my bloggy regularly..

the mad rush of projs is here!!!!

i'm soo overwhelmed!!
its eating me up.. draining away all my energy..
my night has become my day..
what is sleep?
oh i remember..
its the thing you do at the end of everyday when you are tired..
to recharge yourself..
but hey.. my eyes can't seem to close..
my mind is in a whirl..
even if i try to sleep..
i'll just keep thinking of what i haven't finished..
God help me..

DROWNING..

Drowning..

crash!

DEADlines.. yup.. DEADlines are near..
wonder why they call em DEADlines..
well, its quite obvious rite..
the look on Kenneth Wong's stoned face could literally reduce a student to tears..
he's quite a meanie..
oops..
shouldn't badmouth him now..
he's giving the grade after all..

who said poly was easy going?
who said poly life is a breeze..
that is so not true!
so what if i only have 1 2-hour exam paper this sem..
its the projs tt are killing me..

but i'll be strong..
i will not let the pressures of these workload push me down..
i'll strive on..
for my group mates (esp carissa and dhuha.. you gals are da best!)
for my own grade..

I DUN WANNA TAKE SUB PAPER!

God help me..

yes.. i will have faith..
God is my refuge..
He's my strength..
i will rely on HIm to get thru this..
forgive my procrastination..
forgive my complacency..
forgive my ignorance..
forgive me..
help me..
i will trust in you..

i will pull throught..

God help me..

2005-02-26T19:30:00.000-08:00

today's one of the worst day of my life.. seriously.. today is one of those days that i feel Murphy's Law is really true..

the plan today was to do my photo essay proj with my group members from morning to afternoon. had to meet Kevin's band, One Authority for our photo shoot for the proj. was so up and excited abt meeting the band and playing arnd with the camera and backgrounds.. but little did i know things would turn out differently.. i didn't mean i didn't have fun today.. but in the midst of it, i'm seriously suay..

It all started when i woke up at 9am.. an hour later than the actual time i was supposed to wake up.. had to be at tanjong pagar at 10am to meet my friends and One Authority. the 1st thing i noticed was the dark clouds that had gathered.. not a good day for phototaking at all..

Since i was late, hoped my dad would give me a ride.. but then by 930 i was still not ready.. had no choice but to take a cab..

no cabs arnd my area.. had to go interchange to wait at the taxi stand.. was raining and the floor was slippery.. slipped and sorta fell in a halfway manner.. thankfully not many pple were arnd to see me.. ahhaha.. stood up and realised my right slipper broke.. great.. i just bought tt from Barcode two weeks ago.. *sob*

had to make do with pinning the straps with a safety pin.. for now..

the cab cost me $9! and my slipper straps keep coming out every few minutes.. thankfully, kevin drove. At least there's some sort of transport to get us around.

the weather sorta cleared up a little by the time everyone arrived. The ball started rolling.. we had Gina's digi SLR and my digi cam to take the shots of the guys.. the 4 of them are really nice pple.. (yesh kevin is paying me to say he's nice).. haha.. they are really down to earth.. no airs abt themselves as a band.. and they're really crappy too.. which sorta breaks the ice.. well.. it was mostly just josh and kev gaying around.. most of all, they didn't complain much about the sweltering heat.. whoo..

kev sorta drove and parked at different locations.. hmm.. they posed arnd china town.. we also found an oldish bus stop.. the pics came our quite nice for tt one.. we also found this bar/restaurant with red walls.. nice windows with carts with bottles of wine displayed.. quite a nice photg area.. then the guys had fun posing on the middle strip of the road with their instruments.. where the cars just zoom pass.. then josh had this crazy idea to do some crazy poses on the road itself when it's red light.. its a lil dangerous.. but really fun to see em doing nutty stuff.. haha.. a real laugh..

went around a few more places to take more pics.. then finally settled somewhere fore a mid afternoon lunch.. the guys gorged themselves with burger king while the gals and i interviewed them.. i think we took about 200 plus pics of them. should be enuff for our proj.. everything was going quite smoothly until we went back to kev's car to get our stuff...

horrors!

someone dumped carissa's bag and some other stuff into a box that had spilled oil in it.. and i unknowingly put my apple laptop and cover into that box.. the worst mistake of my life..

the cover got soaked.. luckily the laptop was taken out b4 it got affected.. i just left everything in the car.. the camera with the broken UV lens.. the broken slippers (i bought a new pair) and my ibook... cos anyways kev was going to church later.. i could get my stuff from him afterwards..

what could get worse??

being the nice guys they are.. the guys put my laptop onto its cover.. not knowing the cover had oil on it.. eww.. my laptop had uglee black marks in its scratches.. *sob*.. my precious baby.. defiled..

Wanna know who's my new best friend?

Max Brenner.. The chocolate bar at Esplanade!!

YUp.. went there today with Bhav, Carissa, Dhuha and Gina.. its really a chocolate heaven... (oh by the way.. we did not go there to play.. its for our proj work! :P)

The fact that i still wasn't feeling v well didn't stop me from stuffing myself with all sorts of chocolate.. ahhaha.. i was purely blissful in the restaurant manz.. hahah.. Spent a total of $18.. but i think it was all worth it.. i bet this place will be crowded on valentine's day..

shared a thick chocolate toffee drink with carissa.. tho its thick, its not overwhelming.. then there's a nice creamy scoop of vanila ice cream in the centre... Shared waffles with carissa also.. the waffles are warm and thick manz.. scrumptious.. toppings of fruits, ice cream and syrup.. MMmMmMmm.. yummy... next was a souffle.. for those who dunno what it is it looks like a chocolate cupcake.. but when you cut it into half, its has a melted chocolate centre.. Mmmmm.. sprinked with chocolate bits and strawberries... i'm just totally filled up.. and totally happy.. hahaa...

wish i had the money and more stomach space to savour more chocs from MB (yesh.. they're flown in from in from ISREAL!!).. gotta bring my friends there some day...

Anyone wanna treat me here.. i'll gladly go!

hahaha.. okay.. gotta rest my stomach le.. it has enought excitement for today.. ahhahaha...

*pops to panadols*

2005-01-24T22:15:00.000-08:00

Shopping Spree! yay!!! hahah.. long long long time since i seriously went shopping the whole day.. hahah..

Dunno why.. woke up with a sore throat today.. but took some panadol.. felt a little better... Met Felly and Kian Hong at Bugis first at arnd 1pm... felly and i wanted to go bugis street to take a look at the pants there.. prob find smth suitable for the v.day dance in church..

my goodness.. Kian hong ah.. sign on army now become a little rich guy.. before meeting us he went to buy his 5th pair of Levi's.. goodness.. i told him he has enough.. summore now in army surely lose more weight.. haiz.. wad to do.. he just has to spend that $139... !!!!!!!... *envy* hahah.. i dun even have a pair of Levi's... anyone wants to get me one?? *HINT HINT*... hmm.. Wasit 26-27... dun want 593.. too low.. 599 shld be okay.. i love Val's red loop colour.. but anything dark would suit me.. *big smiles*.. take me shopping one day ya? whahaha...

okay.. back to bugis..

yup.. we found them the pants! really nice cottony flowy pants in lotsa diff colours.. prob come back again another day to buy em... the weather was getting really hot.. more humid than the dry kinda hot.. feeling a little sticky.. heez.. all the stores cramped together.. kinda stuffy.. was a much better idea to shop at Parco..

Headed up to The Edge.. came to this shot that sells Fresh Box shirts... i got a white top with quite a large graphic maroon print in front with maroon trimmings on the collar and sleeves.. KH got one similar one but with diff prints.. totally nice!

Felly got stuck at FoxWomen.. KH and i then left her there to meet adelene at V8 movies.. by then it was 3pm.. quite a late time to have lunch.. we were famished.. hahahaha.. Felly came back.. armed with a shopping bag from FoxWomen.. haha.. she really noes how to spend money ehz.. haha.. but can't deny it was a good buy.. KH ordered baked rice and salad.. felly and ade had steak while i had chicken chops..
Soup came first.. i think i was cream of mushroom.. den came KH's salad.. but all of us were really hungry.. so we helped him finish that.. hhehez.. then came his baked rice.. MMMMmmm.. the aroma of cheese and cream was making my mouth water.. he offered us a bite.. but we politely refused.. we watched him take the first bite...........
In the next second.. the 3 of us were attacking his baked rice.. haha.. fortunately for him.. our meals came soon.. yums yums.. hahaha.. but being gals.. we had left overs.. of course KH happily ate up what we couldn't finish.. i think it was worth every cent of our money...

alright.. now satisfied and fully recharged.. its back to shopping! hahaha.. next stop: Far East

i think i walked arnd lots today.. wanted to buy shoes.. but didn't see any nice ones.. we found this vintage shop and saw this really nice vintage lamp.. bought it for val's bday... even the box looked like it was made in the '50s.. hahah.. cute..

found this really neat street wear shop hidden at a corner.. bought a purple top with a radio in front.. Ade bought the white version and KH got a grey but slightly diff version.. it was only $16.40! cheap cheap.. haha..

After a whole lot of walking.. finally took a break at Hans.. KH treated us to pandan cake, tiramisu, apple crumble and this huge cream puff that had lotsa cream.. and a plate of fries.. *thanks manz*hugs* haha.. of course.. we just pigged out.. had lotsa laughs.. Manz.. it was pure fun to spend time with them..

then it was back to shopping.. by then i was a lil tired le.. Kh and felly bought a shirt.. KH bought white slippers (Jon is so gonna kill you manz.. haaha).. my throat feels kinda dry.. today too hyped le.. need some rest.. hahaha..

Shopping Verdict:
Kian hong is the biggest spender today.. spending more than $200 on clothes and shoes..
Me.. quite satisfied.. but still need to look for shoes.. wearing em out too fast! hahah..

gosh.. it has been a super fun day... my dears.. lets do this again soon! (erm.. or when i find the money).. hahaahah..

Dang.. i think i'm falling sick again..

*glups more water*

2005-01-12T18:31:00.000-08:00

the past 3 days have been horrible.. arugh.. hate the feeling of being sick.. my whole family one after the other fell sick.. but i think i got the worst of it..

Started on Monday.. Sam and I were going to Bible House for the poly meet.. we just ended sch.. didn't have time to eat a proper dinner.. so decided to dao bao Macs instead..

Last week my mom had the stomach flu.. the followed by my dad.. and guess what.. i was the next victim..

During the entire poly meet.. i was feeling quite uncomfy.. like as tho my stomach was very oily and bloaty.. went to the toilet a couple of times.. tried throwing up but nothing seems to come out.. finally by the end of the meet.. i had a fever also..

JQ was really sweet.. came to pick me up to drive me home.. i dun think i can make it taking public transport home.. unfortunately riding at the back of the car wasn't a very good idea also... a few minutes later.. had to ask him to stop the car.. i opened the door and everything just came out.. chesse burger and fries.. goodness.. it really stinks.. gosh.. i think that was one of the most horrible moments of my life.. gross! JQ just handed me his bottle of water to rinse my mouth.. gave me tonz of tissues.. even went to the mall to refill the bottle to wash my feet.. haha.. goodness.. so pai seh..

Reached home safely... by then my fever was burning.. i was practically dead on the couch.. could hardly move.. that night was one of the most uncomfy nights.. the bed was warm.. i was burning up.. my i felt so so cold... then my stomach had that uncomfortable feeling again.. i thot i threw up everything on monday night.. but i guess i was wrong.. tues mornig.. arnd 5am.. i threw up again.. yucks..... didn't know i ate so much..

Tues nite.. my bro showed the same symptoms as me.. but i guess his resistance is stronger than me.. he got better the next day while i had to take 2 days MC..

i think the only good thing that came out of this was losing a bit of weight.. hahah.. i had no appitite for anything.. but after i got better.. started eating again.. oh well.. :P

neever ever want to go thru that again...

but thru this i can really see who really cares for me...
- my mom: taking care of my every need, putting up with my complaints, whining and wailing thruout the night.. Love you mom..
- Carmen and Sam: Thanks for your love and prayers
- JQ for sending me home tt night.. not complaining abt anything.. i think you've seen the worst side of me le.. heez
- LoLers: thanks for all the care and prayer

2005-01-08T23:12:00.000-08:00

Happy bday to you!
Happy bday to you!
Happy bday to my dearie Ronnie baby!
Happy bday to yooooooou!

yeah! today's my bro's bday.. hmmz.. turned 15.. wows.. can u imagine i've tolerated him for 15 years le? hahaha.. but i've grown to love this brother of mine.. he's still irritating at times.. but we communicate a lot better now.. tho i may not show it a lot.. (mostly nags at him.. hehe) but i love my bro to bits..

Ron, really pray that God would mould you and change you to be a warrior for Him.. enjoy your day dear....

heez.. celebrated his bday yesterday cos today my whole family's busy with our stuff...

had music prac at 2pm.. till 4.. jon led.. hmmmz.. really quite not bad.. you have potential bro!
Right after that.. the leaders all headed to Marina Bay to meet the rest of the leaders.. all 20 of us.. for our appreciation dinner.. yay! free meal to eat to our heart's content! woohoo! hahah.. Thank you so much Jun Lan jie... heez.. had so much fun eating, cooking, at Marina Bay.. had free drinks too cos DiLiang works there.. heez.. we talked, joked, play games.. ohya.. a few of us took a break at the arcade b4 going back for dessert.. hehez.. gosh.. feel so fattened up.. hahah.. oh well.. just need to exercise more.. haha. but the food was good! my table had Tom and Kian Hong.. good cooks... good food manz.. but i think Tom slathered on too much butter on the meat.. wahahha..

It was good fellowship time.. *smilez*

After the dinner.. went to Suntec with Tom and Kian Hong.. KH wanted to get transparent straws for his Army thing.. but had to walk all the way to carrefour.. haha.. oh well.. a good way to digest food i guess.. but in the end also cannot find..

just found out tom hasn't fed his hamster for a week! his poor pet is just living off water... so evil ah tom.. just cos he's taking care of a puppy.. neglect his hamster.. tsk tsk.. but i think he's just smitten with his dog.. a cute 4 mths old pup.. awww.. adorable..

argh.. just got home.. feet hurts.. need a bath..

*outz*

2005-01-01T21:06:00.000-08:00

Happy New Year! Woosh.. 2005 is here.. wow.. This year started so differently.. no fireworks.. no live broadcast of the nations countdown.. i didn't even go out to celebrate.. just stayed at home with my family...

it would feel so hypocritical to have a minute's silence, to remember those lives that unexpectedly left this earth the past few days.., and the next minute carry on partying till the break of dawn..

how many people actually feel the seriousness of this disaster.. its like "hello?! wake up! why are you still wasting your life away? you could be next!!" yep.. with the earth dying, it won't be a surprise if another natural disaster hits and eats up thousands of people... A tragedy you say.. yes.. i agree.. but then again.. i think we deserve it.. ignoring the fact that we are blindly cutting down trees, sending toxic into the air and sea.. no wonder the natual system of the earth has become chaotic..

then we humans try to act smart.. try to play god.. yeah.. God DID give us wisdom to create medicines to cure diseases.. but what about some incurable diseases like AIDS.. so far there is no cure.. the disease evolves too fast for the medicine to work.. maybe there WILL be a cure.. but who knows, more diseases will spring up by then.. like how more diesase can easily be cultivated by the 150, 000+ dead bodies, most of which are not burried properly.. are we prepared to face such a bio warfare?

Or a bigger question.. are we ready to face the greater judgement of God when we meet him.. *ponders*... how have i lived my life? Am i proud or ashamed of it.. have i lived it to the fullest or just lived it according to the standards of this world.. have i made a difference in someone's life? Or am i just sitting at a corner waiting for things to become right, waiting.. just waiting for time to pass...

Call me a saddist.. but i think the situation on Earth will only get worse...

All this boils down to one reason...

the SIN of man..

yeah.. you may say.. "hey, i'm no big sinner.. didn't kill no body.. didn't crash a plane in any twin towers"

but hey.. we each have told a fair share of white lies, cheated on tests, hurt friends, rebelled, cursed god when we fail or meet troubles, praised ourselves when we achieve success.., how selfish we are.. to bask in the glory of our own intelligence but neglect the ONE that created us and gave us out talents.. all these i am guilty of...

i am not worthy..

hanging my head down, not daring to look at the Hope that stands before me.. yet it reaches out and takes my hand and says "You are not of this world, my child, you're only in this world to make a difference.. Be the light of the world.. the salt of the earth to soothe the broken-hearted.. live your life for me.." I look up.. now i have a purpose in my life.. i do not see a world that has no hope.. but a world full of people waiting for a light to shine in their darkness...

this entry is full of my thoughts for the new year.... He is the only reason i live for.. tho i struggle often but iknow He'll be there.. walking this straight and narrow path with me..

i am thankful...

for my parents who have brought me up these 18 years.. for my brother.. for my aunts who loves me so much, my cousins who i hardly meet but deeply love, my church friends who have supported me and seen me thru my ups and downs (love you felly, val, qi, jon, jun lan jie, ju, ade, kian hong...) thankful for kai sheng.. continue to strive for his glory in MJC.. thankful for Caroline who keeps me smiling all day.. thankful for matilda who brightens up my day with just small conversations with her.. for pris, clara, mel and gra... thankful for didi who looks out for me.. thankful for jian quan who never fails to be there for me.. my sch mates (pam,andrea,carissa,angel,sam,huimin,leo,kegan,yewchong) you guys are da best mates in tp..

Lastly, for my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.. In you i'm made perfect, in you i have hope... without you i'm nothing.. thank you for your love and showers of blessings...

i am loved...

hmm... time to set some new year's resolutions...

1. Do my QT regularly..
2. Read a C+ book every term..
3. Go for mission trip in May.. hopefully indonesia
4. Pray for my Cell
5. Get the "business" started with Val and Felly
6. Pack my clothes cupboard
7. Exercise!!!!!!! (oops..haha)
8. Improve in my chinese esp for leading P&W

shld be enough for now.. must really stick to em.. i think i've made quite achievable resoultions ehz?

my brain is heavy.. so much more to say.... next time then..

*outz*

2004-12-28T23:18:00.000-08:00

Couzzins gathering!! yay! hahaha.. not all is here tho.. but is a rare chance!

2004-12-28T23:05:00.000-08:00

Bahaha.. finally a cousin's gathering... we haven't really met up since.. um.. since.. Chinese New Year '04? yeaps.. it has been sucha long time.. and since my parents aren't in Singapore for the next few days.. Feasting at Auntie Connie's condo would be a blast..!! Always loved her cooking heez.. (shhh.. don't tell my mom k..)

Went down to compassvale condo right after school.. Andy, Casper and Auntie Soo Lan were at the Gym.. Eleanor and Ivan busy tapping away on the comps.. The smells of cream of mushroom and garlic bread filled the air.. Auntie Connie sent Elizabeth and i down to cold storage to get some more food stuff... it feels great to be hanging out with my pretty lil cousin again.. hahah..

When we got back.. the pizzas were out of the oven..and in goes the honey wings... Andy, Casper and ASL were back.. We all sat around the telly waiting for the rest of the cousins to come.. Weena jie came around 6 plus.... Then Isaac came back moments later with a new hair do.. sorta like a mohawk.. but not quite there yet.. hahahah.. looks not bad la.. better than his previous hairstyle.. he's still a cutie.. hahah.. We all watched 1/2 hr of Catch Me If You Can and munched on Christmas cookies.. sucha warm feeling...

At arnd 7pm.. AC called us for dinner.. yay! smells fantabulous! There were 3 kinds of pizzas, cream of mushroom.. toasted garlic bread to dip, Baked brocolli covered with bacon strips and cheese, honey baked chicken wings... MmMMMmmMMm... mouth watering eh?? hahaha.. *drools*

had loads of fun talking.. joking arnd.. laughing.. after dinner.. went back to our movie.. it was a really good show.. intriguing.. i had a blast.. maybe cos half the time my feet was being massaged by the Osim isqueeze.. hahaha.. da best!

In the end.. we took some photos.. (only uploaded one here).. exchanged Chirstmas prezzies b4 leaving... hahaz.. i guess the next time we'll see each other again is Chinese New Year '05...

another happy day...... *smilez*

Love you all couzzies!

2004-12-25T20:56:00.000-08:00

Christmas day.. yep.. its a great saturday to be with friends and family.. its not about how many prezzies.. but its all about Jesus...

I am so grateful that he sent his son this very day...

So very grateful...

2004-12-23T11:41:00.000-08:00

wahz....!!!!! the past 2 days has been quite quite eventful... had loads of fun... super tiring but realy fun spending time with my Jie Meis at Val's house..
A group of us (me, val, fel, julia, ade and Qi) decided to save cost for Chirstmas prezzies this year.. since our youth group has grown bigger, we'll be dead broke if we buy prezzies for everyone.. so we thought of a better idea: Baking brownies and making cards for everyone.. its a tedious job la.. have to bake enough to feed 60+ people! But i guess its quite a personal gift knowing that we have put in sooooooooooo much effort in baking and personalising the cards/bookmarks.. of course for people who are closer to us.. we've gotten them little gifts.. heez..

Wednesday:
Right after school.. went to PS to get some fabric paint stuff from Spot light for the cards and stuff.. the rest of the things (12 boxes of brownie mix, silver foil, loads of eggs, oil, paper for cards..etc...) were bought by the rest of the gals.. Argh.. not fair la.. all of them having hols while i still have to go to school.. but today only 2 hours la.. so not so bad.. hehez..

When i reached Val's house.. the whole place was filled with the wondrous smell of brownies.. yups.. the gals baked the 1st batch.. it was not bad.. hahah.. really thank val's sis for lending us her oven.. heez.. we started like some factory system of making the yummylicious brownies (we like tested so many.. its really good! hahah)..Val was in charge of the baking system.. with julia and Qi mixing the stuff and Val keeping watch on the time.. me, taking the brownies out to cool, cut and wrap when its totally cooled by the fan... while waitng for the batch to bake.. Ade and the others helped to cut and design the cards and book marks.. i think she's really quite good that tt stuff.. looks professional..

We watched Vds while doing the cards... Watched the Terminal.. so so so nice!!! hahaha.. love this movie.. Tom Hanks is such a good actor.. so agile, being able to become the character he is playing.. i'm quite impressed by his movies.. but of course.. he looks much older and rounder in this show.. haha.. but its such a sweet and touching movie.. wished i could watch it again soon...

We took a break during dinner time.. ordered macs... eat till super full.. den julia had to go home le.. she's going over straits (m'sia la) the next day.. haha..

The rest of us continued "working" into the night.. with the TV keeping us company..

Thursday:
In the end ade and Qi left at 1 am after finishing the cards!! Qi's dad picked them up.. Val and i continued baking the last few batches.. i helped to clean up the stuff.. packed everything.. mopped the floor.. took off my contacts and just fell asleep on the couch.. dead to the world..

that was 3am.. i think val slept at 4am..

Then was woken up by the loud shrill of the alarm clock..... at 630am!!!!

Time to wake up for the 1st day of Mango Sale!! nuts??! yesh.. i think its crazy.. but Val's sis, Victoria, insisted for us to go... i took a shower to wake myself up.. wore Val's shirt and looked on as Victoria tried to drag Val outta bed...

we left the house at 7.. went to pick up Victoria's friend... Val and i just snoozed in the back seat... first stop: Mango at Raffles City Mall... the entire shopping centre was quiet.. except for the long queue of women outside Mango... I got to buy quite a few stuff at really good prices.. i was quite awake then.. hahaha.. got a top for myself and julia, bought a sweet pink skirt.. and i think my best buy was a pinkish leather bag that was $65 but i bought it for $33! wowz rite? and it really looks nice.. hahaha.. so happy..

If you think Raffles City was crowded the other 3 places we went to was worse.!! so crowded we could hardly move! I can't believe people would actually wake up so early for a sale.. gosh.. madness.. really.. they just tried clothes outside changing rooms.. grabbed whatever thay could find.. then dumped everything they don't want on the floor..... its like a zoo..

Val and i didn't really get much stuff from the other 3 places.. we just snoozed in between.. felt much better afer breakfast tho.. gosh.. to think that i still have lect and cds in the afternoon.. i think the term "shop till you drop" really comes in handy here.. hahaha..

Vic and her friend were still alert and hyper.. while Val and i were like dead, but happy fishes when we got home.. gosh.. i really need some sleep...

*konkz*

2004-12-20T22:40:00.000-08:00

today had school as usual... Jian Quan happened to be free tonite.. so he came by TP after my lecture... drove to Downtown east to have dinner.. hmmm.. dunno why go there also.. i guess its cos we hardly eat there..

a really amusing thing happened...

he was withdrawing money from the atm machine.. den so happened i took the 50 dollar note at the same time as him.. okay okay.. its mostly my fault la.. but he was holding it too.. apparently i think we tugged a little too hard at opposite directions.. and the note just ripped.. yup.. tore almost right though the centre.. i just started laughing.. cos his expression was so damn cute.. he was totally shocked.. hahaha.. it WAS his $50 anyways.. he just looked at me with a "are you nuts? you tore my money and you're still laughing??!!" look.. hahah..

Good thing my aunt just lived across the street.. den i have her house key summore... so went to her house to tape up the note.. i think i did a pretty good job.. the note looked as good as new! hahah..

Ate at the food court there.. the food's really not bad.. but its a tad expensive la.. but sorta expected price of an air-con food court.. heez...

After dinner... drove to Pasir Ris park.. the atmosphere was really good there.. could hear the waves crashing against the shore.. see people fishing at the breakwaters.. a few people still cycling.. people sitting by the beach just enjoying the quietness.. smelling the salt in the air... We just sat on a patch of grass and talked...

Reached home.. still got to do my assignments.. thank God he has a car.. hahahah...

its a sweet night.. despite the minor mishap.. hahahah.. i think he has forgiven me le la.. tired to make up to him le anyways.. so he better forgive me.... hahhaa..

another brand new day tmr.. better get some work now...

*outz*

2004-12-19T22:38:00.000-08:00

Woohoo! Youth Christmas Celebration happens today! yay! so exciting.. hahah.. must be wondering why celebrate Chritsmas a week earlier.. well.. cos next week we'll be joining the adult service.. but anyways.. i've been celebrating Christmas the whole of December.. Its truely My fav season!!

1st Christmas back in COOS.. quite a different feeling.. Rm #308 had a little revamp thanks to the decor committee.. The atmosphere was great.. a really nice and warm mood.. We started setting up the equipment and stuff at 1230.. dunno why but i think there were some cockups and miscommunications that led us to start our prep only at 115.. Sorta rushed thru prac then prayed as a worship team at 150.. was quite hyped up by then.. so many pple started coming in.. new faces and pple who didn't come for some time showed up.. In all i think there were about 10 new pple.. so the place was kinda packed with abt 60++ almost 70 youths.. wow..

Praise and worship was good.. tho inititally the congrgation wasn't moving much.. but by the 3rd song, everyone was pumped up, jumping and praising..-Reflector, Everyday and King Of Magesty - totally hot! i was quite out of breath! hahah.. It feels so good to be worshipping Him.. The worship was just moving.. Kian Hong led Still.. its really serene and meaningful.. i ended with Lord, I Give You my Heart...

The rest of the service had games and sermon.. quite eventful.. the most touching part was when Calvin (Alvin's friend - quite a nice guy with a sweet smile and cute dimples at the side.. haha..) and Eugene stood up to accept Christ.. i was quite impressed by their response.. esp from Calvin cos i guess this was the first time i was him in church.. really really happy for them.. Welcome to the Family guys!

Went out for dinner with most of them..

its another fantastic Sunday.. but i guess this Sunday was more meaningful than most cos we had 2 pple accept Christ...

Happy day......

2004-12-18T23:58:00.000-08:00

argh.. had to wake up early today (hmmm.. is 8am early??) .. why on earth did Jon put the music prac in the morning!!?? Thankfully my dad was going for the dialect service so drove us there.. the performance at orchard rd last nite made me really really tired.. i just knocked out in the car.. didn't realised we reached till Jon woke me up...

Kian Hong last min couldn't make it cos the poor guy had to stay in camp a little longer.. &pm then get to book out.. so we just practised on our own.. the prac was okay la.. wasn't fantastic cos many pple didn't remember what we practised the other time and there were a few changes... Then dunno why, Jon seemed to be not in a very good mood.. ahhz.. hope things will get better tmr.. dunno why but the whole thing doesn't feel very good.. like its a bad feeling that things will go wrong tmr? Like i think there's friction btw pple now.. hmmmm.. we could only pray...

Prac ended arnd 1.. went to outram to meet Jian Quan for lunch.. but before that, the music team wanted to eat lunch together.. but den i extra one la.. haha.. they kept suanning me.. say i go meet boyfriend den dun hang out with them.. haha.. nonsense la they all...

As usual, Jian Quan was late.. haha.. dunno when he's gonna change that habit.. oh well.. we walked all the way to Chinatown (which wasn't very far anyways...) heez.. hmmm.. i think Chinatown isn't the best place to find food that i like.. quite a picky eater that day.. didn't want to eat outdoors, didn't wanna eat fast food... dun really wanna eat expensive food either.. so in the end.. walked a really long distance till we found an air-con foodcoourt.. haaz.. by then i think it was almost 3 and i didn't eat anything all day!! *stomach growls*

hmmm.. after lunch headed to Val's house where Qi and Tom were resting there also.. Jain Quan accompanied me all the way there.. which was at Dover (awww.. so sweet ah.. Thanks dearie..) The 3 of them came down to escort me up her house.. ahhaa.. i think they had nothng better to do la.. was drizzling a little summore..

Gosh.. i was quite tired by the time i reached there.. sho sleepy.. all of us just flopped on the couch.. half snoozed and half watched Anastasia.. Little Nicholas keep making a lot of noise.. couldn't slp properly... Got up to bathe at 5 plus.. from then it was a mad rush to get ready for our second performance at orchard road.. today would be longer cos there's gonna be two shows.. one at Paragon, another at Lau Pasat..

All of us were squeezed at Val's mirror doing make up (well.. except tom la).. doing our hair.. den rushed out and took a cab to paragon... My goodness.. Orchard rd was crowded.. jammed packed.. but the weather was suprisingly good.. quite cooling.. no sign of rain.. thank God...

The perfomances was really great.. gotta go look for the pics my dad took then post it.. hahaha.. its really nice to spend this season with my loved ones...

After the whole thing, the entire group of us had dinner at Lau Pasat.. Talked, laughed, ate to our heart's content till arnd 11 plus...

Baby Joshua.. Another adorable babe in my house today!

2004-12-12T23:21:00.000-08:00

Today's one of the busiest sunday i've ever came across.. woke up late (erm as usual.. can't wake up earlier than 10am).. in the end took cab to church.. $10 gone... oh well...

Met Jon, Kian hong, Pei Wen and Wen Hao at the hawker... ate breakfast.. kaya toast.. yum.. heez.. Today's the childern's carnival day.. Woohoo! haha..

This time, the carnival's gonna be a little different than the one the youth had.. i think more fun for the little kids.. Got lotsa food.. finger food, mee siam (superb!!), hot porridge (da best!), lor mee, fried rice, kueh, bbq chicken wings, sweet corn, ice lemon tea... had porridge for breakfast and mee siam for lunch.. of course ate other stuff during the day la.. but can't really remember what i ate la.. too much stuff.. hehez..

Kian Hong and I did the face painting stall.. kinda fun.. the paint was quite good quality la.. so the pictures turned out quite well.. Kian Hong does lovely paintings.. flying horses, eagles, butterflies.. he painted fishes on my arm.. 3 different kinds with seaweed and everything.. looks quite real.. hahah.. There was this lady who wore a halter.. KH printed a stylised black rose on her back shoulder with white highlights.. looks real good.. like some kind of tatoo.. she was quite happy with it la.. haha.. den he drew a black scorpion on Tom's brother's arm.. looks so gangster lor. wow.. really quite admire his art manz.. i think my best work is a lion's face i did for a lil boy.. hehe.. i think quite not bad.. :P

I think the most fun game stall the kids played was the catching the fish game.. had real guppies and other fishes in a pool of water.. but i think these fishes will die in a few days la.. hahah.. but the kids had so much fun.. having pets is fun la.. they were like squealing and laughing when they chased the fishes with their nets.. but at the end of the day i think i really pity the poor worn out fishes who would die in a few days time due to extreme stress.. hahaha

There were other game and food stalls la.. but i guese i'm too lazy to type everything that happened.. it was just too damn crowded.. hahah

By 5pm.. we started clearing up everthing.. the earlier rain made the whole place kinda slippery and wet.. but we had fun la.. (yes we did! even clearing up was fun!)
Tiring manz.. den still have choir/dance prac later.. hmmz.. *wipes sweat* oh well...

Felly came for prac today!! yay! so damn happy to see her!! Didn't see her for 2 weeks le! Missed her so much.... gosh.. she slimmed down so much.. really pray that her family problems clear up soon.. hopefully.. *smiles*

I think Jon wasn't too happy that most pple were late for prac.. den summore was supposed to be a full dressed rehearsal.. but then many pple forgot to bring the clothes and stuff to change into.. oh well.. everyone was tired and had a long day.... :s

2 hours of standing, singing and prancing around.. thats enough to make my feet wobble... in fact i think we went over time... left church at 730... actually, i didn't feel super tired la.. just that, me legs were starting to ache.. hehehz..

Kevin came by to pass Val her shoes.. den he drove all of us (me, felly, Kian Hong, Tom, Nigel, fanna, Julia, Ade and Grace) to go eat dinner!! yay! was super hungry.. hahaha.. ended up eating at the Cheese Prata shop at west coast... it was fantabulous! i had a special prata (cheese, potato and egg - fattening manz.. but who cares.. i worked the whole day le) and a plain one... then shared mutton soup with ade... MmmMMM... da best!! We just sat there, ate and talked till arnd 9 plus..

The guys wanted to catch a movie.. den felly and i had to meet out parents at Taka.. so we all headed to town... In the end the guys didn't get the showtime they wanted.. so just sat at Taka macs to talk.. again.. heez.. it was good fellowship la.. another Sunday well spent...

I'm just happy... *big smiles*

2004-12-12T22:34:00.000-08:00

Went for prayer meeting today.. It was sorta a different Kind of prayer meeting cos its specially for the pple who are performing at Orchard Rd on the 17th and 19th.. and also for All the Christmas events planned for the next week.. So exciting! hahah..

Really into the Christmas mood.. being able to spend my time with my friends and loved ones.. really cherish that feeling.. of course Christmas also means the Celebration of the bith of Jesus Christ... Just feel very loved by HIS great love for all of us who are not worthy to be loved and saved by him...

Christmas is a time to be thankful...

I really am.....

~~***>>Thank you Father for my parent, lil brother, and all my friends that surround me.. Thank you for placing me in a warm family.. being able to live each day sufficiently with food, clothes and a good education. Sometimes i think i take all these things for granted... Just want to thank you not only for the good things that happened in my life, but also the bad.. cos its thru troubles that you mould me and change me to become what I am today.. Thank you for giving your Son to us this Christmas 2000 yrs ago.. without him, we are nothing.. That is the greatest gift of all... love you Father..........<<***~~

*miss you mada, pris, mel, clara and gra!*

2004-12-08T21:03:00.000-08:00

Without a paddle is NICE!!!!!!!! hahaha... quite lame but its super funny la.. its not that kind of stupid comedy la.. it actually has some good morals to learn. Like: life, friends and family are more important than money.. awww.. sweet rite? i liked the part where they huddled together in the rain.. super funny.. then thinking of the tree girls.. gosh... the short guy (forgot his name) he so cute lor.. as in always gets bullied by the other 2 guys..

The movie ended quite fast la.. heez.. den all of us kinda just wasked arnd PS abit.. v sian.. cos had to go back to school for a 2 hour lect.. but.. oh well.. in the end we were all good little kids.. took the train back to school...

Another day just pass by like this...

I think life has more meaning than just this..

heez... i believe it is...

2004-12-06T22:52:00.000-08:00

yay! school has started! haha.. quite happy la.. why? Cos i get to see my lovely friends again! Whee! haha.. oops.. kinda hyper now la..

Gosh.. andrea slimmed down so much! i think maybe cos she was sick a few times this hol and was in myanmar doing some overseas CIP thing.. didn't really get to see her this whole hol!! hahah.. but glad to see her again.. the sad thing is, she's the only one who ended up in T01 while the rest of us were in the next 3 classes... awww..

this week.. i think super slack la.. i don't even need to come to school on friday! No tutorials this week.. so yup.. its quite relaxed.. sorta like letting us catch up with friends this week..

hmmm.. my CDS is freehand drawing.. wanted the Tourism Planning thing.. but oh well.. i guess freehand drawing is not that bad either.. i hope.. heez..

hmmm.. gonna catch Without a Paddle with the guys tmr.. better check out whats the plan..

*outz*

Resolution for this sem: Not to skip ANY lectures.. unless i'm really sick of course.. heez..

2004-12-03T21:15:00.000-08:00

missions missions missions.. its all about going into the world and reaching out to the lost.. today evening went for the Joshua 21 - Fever'04 service.. it was really good.. the songs mostly worship songs.. but quite meaningful to me..

They showed a video of a mission trip to myanmar (i think).. it was quite saddening to see how those people could live and survive in those living conditions. i'm really too privilideged in Singapore.. Its like one big family squeezed into some small room.. so dark and dirty.. hardly any light to read a proper book, that is, IF they have any books... those kids couldnt even afford a proper education..

So a normal kid's life would be to go to the streets to beg or work some odd job that pays them peanuts.. or go to the dumpster so scour the rubbish for anything they could sell.. and what do i do during my free time? hang out with my friends... shopping.. sch work.. projects.. church stuff.. a totally different lifestyle from them.. my heart really goes out to them..

after the video this ang-moh lady come to talk... she's quite a good speaker.. in fact, time just flew by, and i just sat there listening to her share about her 20 years in missions. She had her home opened to unwanted kids with disabilities and she takes care of them with a staff of nurses.. hmmm.. not your typical go to some poor country and reach out to the unreach.. but she's more like reaching out to the unwanted, the untouchables, the people whom the society think are liabilites in this world.. wow.. i applaud her work, to share God's love to them.. i think its quite difficult work.. i dun think i would have the patience.. hmmmmm..

in the end had to leave the service before it ended cos it was getting late le.. but i'm quite inspired today..

Life is not about luxuries or how many certs you have.. there's a deeper meaning to it.. a more purposeful mission..

hope i find it one day...

*miss all my tk friends!!!**

2004-12-03T19:56:00.000-08:00

What am i to say? everything is so clearly stated.. but yet its so hard to decide..

hmmmm.. am i making sense here? in the end i just gave in to what my heart decides..

Take it a step at a time.. yups.. that's what i'll do.. but is it the right decision.. hmmm.. i hope it is.. but now.,.. i'm quite happy where i am.. we'll see how it goes.. i'm willing to face whatever challenges that come my way.. i'm just thankful that there are pple arnd me that are there for me..

hmmm... *deep in thought*

2004-11-27T23:07:00.000-08:00

Woohoo! Today's Victoria's wedding.. haha.. gosh.. so fast ehz.. people around me are starting to get married.. haha.. but i think my turn won't come so soon yet.. heez..

right after choir prac.. felly, ade and i quickly went to change.. rushed to Marriot in Kelly's car.. met tom there (i think he was a little underdressed.. but oh well.. he didn't look that bad.. ahha..

I think the girls looked great! Esp Val, the beautiful sister of victoria.. and my bestest pal.. someone even mistook her for the bride. haha.. just look at the pic lor.. you'll see wad i mean.. funny thing is.. we didn't really take much pictures of the bride.. haha.. oopsz..

It was quite interesting la.. the 4 of us helped throw rose petals when the bride and goom came into the ballroom.. MmMMMMmmm.. i tell you.. Marriot food is supa dupa delicious! serious! 2nd time eating at a wedding dinner here.. and its still as good.. or even better! haha.. yeah.. esp the desert.. individual haagen daz ice cream cake! can u believe it?!! haha.. hmmm.. spent most of the dinner talking to the girls and tom.. he told me lots of interesting stuff abt resturant work and arrangement and stuff.. heehz.. ohya.. and how he made mayo in sch the other day.. totally gross.. so much oil is used!!!

Hahah.. yeah.. the wedding dinner was really nice.. esp since Marriot sorta had a christmas mood to it... add candles and flowers everywhere.. the place looked wonderful.. heez..
hope my wedding next time would be as nice.. or nicer.. hahaha..

oooookay.. enuff dreaming.. ahhaah.. gotta wash up! :P

2004-11-27T11:59:00.000-08:00

felly, val and me... oh ya.. and val's little cousin nicholas.. so handsome eh? hahah.. don't we all look fantastic? hahah..

2004-11-24T18:46:00.000-08:00

Just back from youth camp! woohoo! the best 3 day of November! Yups! That explains why i haven't been blogging for so long la.. heez..
Its a beautiful place.. just look at the pics.. much better place than last year.. i just love the windows.. cos they're kinday full length.. u wake up to a crimson sunrise every morning.. haha.. yeah.. its a really serene place..

This year's theme is Deeper Love.. quite a good theme.. considering the fact the Light of Life has just started this year.. and all of us have yet to know each other better.. Love one another deeper.. Had an english speaker this year.. pastor edwin.. he's not bad.. easy to understand and digest what he shared with us.. it sorta hit a nail on my head too.. reminding me to step out from my comfort zone... allowing God to use me and change me to become what he wants me to be.. i guess it is a big challenge.. must learn not to be just contented with where i am now.. but to drive myself forward and continue pursuing what is valuable in HIS eyes..

these 3 days were fun.. esp during the games~~!! haha.. There was one where they had to pick out marbles from tubs of ice.. using only their FEET!! gosh.. they were screaming after putting their feet in and trying to 'kiap' the marbles with their toes... haha.. what a sight manz.. loads of fun!

then there was the eating game.. played indoors.. supa funny.. imagine shen da stuffing an entire huge juicy tomato in this mouth!! then Dawn trying to stuff all 33 LAYS chips into her mouth.. julia stuffing herself with dry chocolate bread..den my brother who tried (but failed) to eat 9 small oranges at one go.... funny.. funny.. funnieeeee.. haha.. super tickled by their expressions.. got more la.. but i just forgot who did what la..

Did i mention the food here is great??!! the best camp food i've ever tasted! Esp on the second night.. yummy!! Buffet sia.. wahz.. i think i ate a lot that night.. (thnaks ah wenhao.. fatten us up!) haha..

hmmm.. the second (and last) night was quite memorable.. the sermon was just re-enforcing what was taught the past day.. another challenge to us.. the whole service ended off with pastor edwin praying for us.. it was really moving.. to see pple being touched by God.. loved by him.. its like HIS arms were wrapped arnd us..
When the neeting ended.. pastor edwin told us to take 20 mins, find a place of our own and just talk to God.. Wowz.. it was good.. the atmosphere made it better.. i was sitting on the steps.. facing the sea.. listening to the waves breaking on the shoreline.. just talking to God.. its not often that we could just spend a quiet moment with him like that.. esp when sch starts... busy busy busy.. but sometimes i wonder.. why are we like that? or are we just ignorant of the fact that Hes always there.. waiting to spend time with us.. hmmmm.. *thinks hard*

yay! had the talentime after the service......... (update soon!)

Aloha Changi Cottage... looks nice eh? haha.. this is only the side view lor.. hahah.. gonna be a fun 3 days! woohoo!

Front View.. nice rite? we had service in the living room.. so airy with the window panels open.. really nice..

Look at the View! this was what i woke up to every morning..

hmm.. gosh.. i'm such a muddlehead today.. mistook Felly's and Xue Ling's P&W prac as my prac.. heez.. instead, it was Qi's turn to play.. hahah.. gosh.. so went to church in the morning for nothing..

Good thing Jian Quan was free in the aft.. so went to meet him for lunch/dinner at PS at 2pm.. The funny thing was.. i think we spent most of the time looking for a damn parking space.. haha.. quite funny la.. that silly boy thot driving would be more convenient.. but it was a saturday.. and parking space was seriously rare... PS didnt have space.. so went to Suntec instead... i think Suntec is worse lor.. no parking at all.. in the end parked at Marina Square...

By that time it was 3 plus le.. ate at the food court upstairs (mMmm. the hor fun was not bad at all).. then headed back for the 5pm music prac.. wahahah.. how interesting ehz.. spent more than an hour riding in a super freezing cold car.. haha.. oh well.. we crapped a lot to pass time..

After music prac.. sat arnd with Jon, James and Qi.. waited for Kian Hong.. to go get my heels from Far East! yay! hahah.. beautiful shoes.. gonna wear them for the church dinner on monday.. they look really classy.. but not over the top.. dark purple straps on a silver grey base with a silver semicircle to hold the straps on top.. totally nice.. hahah.. and its quite cheap summore! $23 only! haha.. yeah.. happy buy... after tt.. went for supper at KFC.. before heading home..

Kian Hong told me he signed on.. wow! haha.. at least he'll have a stable pay for the next 5 years.. not bad wad i think.. den after save enough money den decide if he wanna continue studying.. hmmm.. not easy to find a good job nowadays.. so i guess army would be good, given his current family situation.. heez.. All the best manz!

wahz.. now tired.. gotta be in church early summore.. camp comm meeting and music prac! better get some rest! *outz*

J-cell Chalet!

2004-11-12T23:49:00.000-08:00

Today was quite eventful.. haha.. despite the fact i spent most of my morning and afternoon in the office.. heez..

Lost my wallet today.. hmm.. sometimes i wonder.. how come i'm so careless?!! arghh!! Just recently lost my HP in the cab a few weeks ago.. some one pls slap me.... but luckily, Wan Jing found my wallet in the bus (thank God).. if not i would be stranded without my wallet.. had quite a bit of money in there too.. and my IC.. and some other important stuff...

Waited abt an hour for WJ to pass me her wallet... den rushed down to East Coast for J-cell Chalet.. gosh.. good thing i wasn't that late.. they started the fire le.. the weather was great.. cool but yet warm from the coals..

The chalet was a lil small.. had to squeese almost 20 of us in the small room.. haha.. saw some new pple like Xue Ling's friend Benjamin, Chai Ling's friend (err.. forgot his name).. Eugene came also! yay! haha.. long time didn't see him arnd...

Had ice breakers.. den a short praise and worship.. den it was BBQ time! yay! i was super hungry.. can't wait to get my hands on some chicken wings.. haha.. the guys were being nice la.. hogged the 2 pits to cook for us.. there was so much diff types of food! MmMMmm.. there were satay, pork chops, otah, sotong/fish balls, crab meat, hotdogs, taiwan sausage (da best!), and roasted marshmallows!! Yummy! I was happily roasting my marshmallows... crispy on the outside, soft and melty on the inside.. then covered with nutella chocolate.. mmm.. *heavenly*

My 1st chicken wing was *yuck* cos di liang dunno how to cook it.. haha.. it was still a lil raw.. haha.. err sorry ah didi.. gotta work on ur cooking skills arh.. heez.. but the next few were pretty good.. haha.. so GREAT JOB guys! haha..

The drinks ran out quite fast.. i had to make more fruit punch.. i think i didn't really read like how much syrup to mix with how much water.. haha.. so Eugene ended up being my tester.. haha.. (hope you're not poisoned.. hehez..)

We all spent the rest of the time watching tv.. talking.. playing arnd.. our next door neighbour were pretty rowdy also.. so the atmosphere was quite high.. hahah.. had a great time with my j-cell peeps..

Jian Quan wanted to come by to pick me to go get some supper.. sweet of him.. but i was totally full by then.. hahah.. sorry dear.. in the end my parents came to pick me up also lahz..

Gosh.. now i smell of bbq... hahah.. its a happy day.. gonna bathe! *outz*

In the end.. woke up at arnd 10 plus.. rushed to bathe cos had to meet Felly, Qi, Jon, David and Ade for Lunch at Far East.. Ate at Hans.. MmmMMmM.. yummy! haha.. felt like splurging.. so bought Fish and Chips and a Chicken Mushroom Pie.. the milo was super nice too.. haha.. but i'm not tt much of a pig la.. shared with Qi lorz..haha

After tt.. Jon and David went off.. den we gals went on a shopping spree! yeah..! never shopped like this in a long time.. ahha.. maybe cos now i have money to spend.. For me, my goal was to buy a new skirt, new heels to go with my outfit for monday's dinner, hopefully some new Levi's jeans, and more tees for sch..!! Oh ya.. and not forgetting a new bag that can fit my ibook too! heez..

Before i came, Qi bought a sweet purple top for monday's dinner.. so gotta look for a bottom to match.. We walked into Little Match Girl.. this white skirt caught my eye.. Perfect! haha.. wah.. Qi look so nice in it.. really shows off her curves.. the skirt make her look so girl lor.. haha.. cost almost $40.. but it was worth it.. for her i mean.. ehehz..

Just next door was TOSS... found this lil brown skirt.. a lil short.. but not tt short.. still decent and sweet.... just what i'm looking for.. cost $39.. but oh well.. i really really liked it..haha..
Felly found her black skirt to match with her pink top for the dinner.. oh.. and i found this really beautiful maroon top with rainbow gathers at the bottom.. totally awesome! its the kind of top tt dun look as casual as a tee shirt.. but not very formal also... just what i like..den not very ex also.. $26.. wow.. damn happy lor.. haha..

Walked passed this Itallian shop.. saw this pair of heels that is almost exactly what i'm looking for.. someone pls remind me to get em on Saturday! hmmm.. saw other stuff also.. but couldn't decide if they're worth buying.. hmmmz.. so who's up for shopping with me again??!! heez..

Left there with a lil burnt nose and shoulders.. not badly tho.. but the rest of me is still white.. ahhz... not fair.. haha..

Rushed to Bible House for poly serve.. was feeling a lil tired.. but had a good session there.. Learnt about having basic consistency in my Christian life.. which i feel is an important reminder.. often i'm too busy doing other stuff and neglect basic stuff like reading His word.. Taking to Him.. sharing with others about His love.. So i'm determined to pull my life back on track.. hmm.. shld start setting goals..

Well.. feeling a lil tired now.. remind me to blog abt what i've learnt.. if not i'll forget easily.. *nites*

**~>>^ Father, help me remember that being a Christian is not just about being in a religion.. but its about having a consistent and growing relationship with you.. help me Lord..^<<**

i was talking with kev about diets today.. haha.. yep.. DIETS.. hmmm.. just wondering why it is spelt with "die" infront..haha..

oh well.. apparently he's on a diet.. a no carb diet.. i was amazed how he could keep with it.. i'm so lousy at diets..haha.. i'm a pig la..
His meals consists of a powerbar for breaky, an apple for lunch, a who knows what for dinner.. but NO food after 8pm and no consumption of carbs.. wow..
he was like saying that he needs to exercise to keep up his metabolism rate up cos a sudden decrease of food intake will lower his metabolism rate.. hmm.. interesting..

I dun think i wanna diet like tt.. haah.. i think i'll just die.. but maybe change my meals a lil.. (sitting in the office the entire day does not help either.. haha).. so i came up smth like this:

Loads of fresh fruts and veg (salads)/beans for breaky and lunch.. den eat whatever my mom cooks for dinner (but with less rice.. hehez..). Sounds good ehz? haha.. yep.. sounds healthy enough to me.. den i guess i'll include exercising on weekends and whenever i have time on weekdays..

I'll start this tomorrow........ *promise*

But tonite's dinner.. i'm pigging out.. wahaha.. (ok kev.. dun scold me.. i WILL start eating properly tmr! ::*grinz*::)

Yeah! Went out to eat with the gays and Andrea! woohoo! damn happy to see them.. (haiz.. yew chong and pam.. why ya'll couldn't make it?! hmph..)
So the 4 of us met at somerset (lookin great Andrea! haha..).. at first i wanted to go marche.. cos craving for rosti.. but Andrea goes there quite often.. den quite sian of tt place le.. so ended up checking out Billy Bombers at Heeren!

By that time i was quite hungry.. hehez.. so we started ordering..

Andrea got the club sandwich (it was huge!).. Leonard had meatloaf (looked weird.. but tastes not bad..) Kegan had the mixed grill (had bacon, steak, eggs, fries, sausage... what else?? a variety of stuff la..) and me... i had the best dish!... a half slab baby back ribs with a potato salad!!! (mmMMMmmM..*i'm in heaven* haha)

Of course i shared it la.. i couldn't finish it all by myself anyways.. was too busy trying the other foods also..ahha... this was life manz.. and i only had to pay $20... not bad..(who's up for going there to eat again??!!)

Augh.. super full.. good thing we spent the next hour walking arnd and crapping before heading home..
Time just flew by.. we didn't do much tt nite cos Kegan had to meet his friend.. i gotta work tmr and Andrea has a 8am flight to Australlia!

oh well.. but it was time well spent.. i'm a happy gal tonite..

*yawnz*.. nites!

**^::>YOu're the air i breathe, you're the reason i walk, the reason i talk, the reason i live......<::^**

Clothes.. clothes.. clothes..

2004-10-30T00:17:00.000-07:00

Didn't get to see auntie Soo Lan for quite some time le.. so decided to date her out today.. accompany her to the Metro Warehouse Sale after work.. it was quality time spent with her.. walking around.. talking about stuff.. den having lunch with her at KFC.. was supposed to be my treat.. but she ended up paying for me.. (thanks!.. :P) oh well.. guess i'll have to treat her to some high class place when i get my pay.. ahhaha...

Went home to bathe (hmmm love my baths.. haha..) yup.. den headed to church for music practise..

Today's prac was a lil last minute.. but it was still good.. Grace was on the piano today.. (great jamming today gal!) and i was on the keyboard.. sadly no bass but David was on the guitar and Jon on the drums.. so it was good enough... hehez.. yeah.. we were rockin'! yeah!

Really love the song Upon Your Grace.. i could just close my eyes and listen to it play the whole day.. hmm... tmr's praise and worship will be fantastic.. (i hope..haha..)

After prac.. we all (except Jon and Val-she had rashes.. poor gal) went to eat dinner at tiong baru (of all places?! haaz.. to accomodate David la cos he got interview).. at Long John Silver's (cos everyone had not much money.. hehe..) As usual.. we ate.. talked.. and played stupid games.. haha.. i laughed a lot today.. esp cos David sabohed himself and ended up doing something stupid.. damn funny.. hmm.. dunno how to describe also.. haha..

After dinner.. went shopping for Hao-ge's belated bday prez... 1st went to U2.. saw this really nice collared shirt and sleaveless pullover.. Asked Alvin to try.. it was awesome.. like casual yet formal.. looked good on him.. *winks* but i think will look good on any guy la.. haha.. but its damn ex la.. the two piece total cost almost $100... we saw the price tag den left the shop immediately..hehe..

we were thinking of getting a formal shirt for him la.. cos he always serve in chuch.. so thot of getting him a nice one.. yeah..

Walked into G2000 next.. wows.. so many formal suits and shirts..
Alvin and i decided to have some fun and dress up a lil..
So he went to choose my formal outfit.. i went to choose his..
Got him a normal black suit and pants.. with a dark purple formal shirt (the rest were thinking of getting tt shirt for Hao-ge.. so just let alvin try..) he picked out a dark brown suit with a striped purple top (doesn't sound complimenting here.. but its quite nice la..)
So we got changed and came out looking almost ready enough to work in a bank! haha.. Alvin looks older for once.. haha..
We took pics on his handphone.. quite clear but unfort cannot send to comp.. oh well.. had fun trying clothes la.. but in the end a lil pai seh cos dumped everything to the sales person to fold and only bought the purple shirt for hao-ge.. hehehe.. gosh.. we're bad.. but oh well...haha.. it was done all in the name of fun..

After that.. walked arnd a lil more.. quite tired le.. David went for his interview.. grace went home.. Alvin and I took the train to bedok... the whole ride he tried to send me the pics thru infra-red.. but couldn't really.. so we just listened to music the entire ride........

Well.. was quite and interesting day... tired le.... *big hugz to everyone!* Outz....

*Val.. hope ur rashes cleared up le..
*jeRemy.. haiz.. going back to army today.. gonna miss ya crappiness manz.. haha.. talk to u soon!
*Alvin... thanks..
*Jian Quan.. sorry couldn't meet up with ya today..

Friday! At last! wahahah...

2004-10-29T12:12:00.000-07:00

SO happy when it comes to weekends.. haha.. its the best feeling to have to know that my fave 2 days Sat and Sun are around the corner.. yay!

Oh well.. work was interesting today.. as in much more noisy than usual.. but other than that is as just a normal day at work..
Rain like crazy again.. the whole office was like a freezer! Brrr...

Had to rush home after work.. didn't wash my hair for 2 days le (cos i rebonded it).. cannot tahan le.. so went home to wash it before heading to church for cell.. ahhhHhh.. my hair feels so good after tt washing.. MmmMm..

Today i realised.. MRT train rides aren't as boring as i thought it would be..
i was on my way to church in the mrt train... den a huge grey BAT flew in at the Kallang Stop.. i was like.. wow.. cos u don't really see this kinda thing in Singapore.. It was quite funny la.. people were shrieking (mostly women) and ducking to avoid the frantic bat.. i was one of the lucky ones who didn't need to resort to doing that.. (beacuse i was sitting down k.. not beacuse i'm short!!).. hehe.. well.. i think its quite useless to duck anyways.. bats are blind and they use soundwaves to detect objects infront of them.. so they would naturally avoid banging into pple.. Well.. the poor guy finally got out after flying up and down the carriage.. but i think he's still trapped cos the next few stops after kallang are all underground.. haiz.. poor thing..

Oh well.. this incident made me look around a lil more.. its interesting to look at people on the train.. well not staring at them la.. just observing them..
The guy beside me was blasting his ipod.. but yet he could just fall asleep.. he was nodding away like in some trance.. quite funny.. haha..
Then there's this old ah pek opposite me... fiddling with something.. at 1st i thot it was some huge HP.. den i realised it was a gameboy.. geez.. somehow i couldn't quite equate a 60+ old guy with a gameboy! gosh.. well.. i guess he's just trying to pass time..

Got to church just on time for cell..

Val and I look like twins! haha.. really! She straightened and cut her hair too.. (you look really sweet gal.. haha..)

Cell was great! we had lots of discussions and sharing and praying for one another.. had fun just spending time with these pple...
Tom and nigel came today.. didn't see them in cell in a loooong time.. glad to see them there tonite..*smilez*

Jon didn't come today.. haiz.. no one to go home with me.. BUT thankfully Hong ye was going to Ben's house at Pasir Ris so sorta acconpained me on the train la..(thanks bro!)

Hmmm.. reached home a few minutes ago... feeling quite tired la.. haha.. den tmr still doing OT.. better go slp now!

<<**^~Jesus i believe in you, i would go, to the ends of the earth, for you....Let me tell your story...~^**>>

Where did my money go??

2004-10-28T12:58:00.000-07:00

Metro Sale warehouse sale is on! haha.... do i sound like some auntie? haha.. hmm... metro is not the usual place where i do my shopping.. but since the sale was near my office..(expo hall 5) no harm checking it out... haha..

The place was quite big la.. haha.. found that thay sold Pop Tarts! MMmMmm.. haven had that for 6 years le.. they were selling it with other assorted stuff at 12 for $9.. hmmm.. not bad a buy la..

Girls.. there lots of cheap bras there manz! haha.. really! den its not those kinda lously cheapo ones.. they're mostly branded! haha.. bought 3 pierre cardin ones for only $12+.. haha.. they're really nice ones too..

Oh manz.. then there were hoards of shoes! haha.. i bought a pair or slippers at $9.90 la.. hehe.. Saw this really nice open toed strappy pink heels.. looks realy good with jeans.. wanted to get it.. but $29.90 is not say v cheap as compared to the other shoes.. hmm... still contemplating if i shld get it.. really want it.. going down there with my aunt this Sat after work.. hehe.. hopefully she'll be feeling generous.. hahah..

The clothes there not much la.. not really a big section.. then some also look quite aunti tt kind.. haha.. but bought 2 tops, 1 is a sleveless pink jersey looking top from BUM Equipment ($10)... the other is a blue funky top from Beverly Hills 90210 ($7.90).. haha.. not bad rite?

Saw a few nice belts and lovely bags too.. but Pauline's bro was like coming soon.. so had to rush off.. i thot i didn't spend much.. but ended up paying almost $65 there.. wahz.. there goes my day's worth of pay... *sigh* oh well.. i think its money well spent la.. haha..

Got home early today.. reached home at 730.. haha.. i think i watched tv all thru the nite.. 1st it was the 7pm ch8 show..was a guai gal today.. helped to wash the dishes tonite..haha..
then it was Singapore Idol (sly and oli rocks my socks! haha..).. hmmm.. den it was the 9pm ch8 show.. the swimming one.. (its abit lame and predictable.. but oh well.. haha..dun care la..) after tt.. went online lorz.. haha.. how boring rite?
Chatted awhile.. den my family decided to watch white chicks.. (yeah manz.. it rocks big time!) i watched it with terence the other time.. laughed my head off.. tonight was no different.. its seriously damn funny la..

Halfway.. called Jem to "rescue" him in case tt nutty gal calls him again.. haha.. (eh.. u seriously sound a lil malay.. haha.. well nth wrong with tt la.. but quite funny..) had a good talk with him.. but i think we talked for abt an hour? cos when i finally hung up.. the show was over.. my bro and parents were already getting into bed.. wow.. that was fast.. haha..

Poor ginger was ignored today.. didn't have time to spend time with it.. only had time to feed it.. haha.. gosh.. i better walk him soon.. and he really needs a bath.. haha.. any volunteers wanna help me?? heez...

Ahh.. i better go slp now.. if not i'll be nodding away in the office again.. haha.. oops..

Hair Affair

2004-10-27T01:50:00.000-07:00

*yawnz* Got home not long ago.. just rebonded my hair.. quite satisfied la.. tho i wish my hair is longer.. hehe.. it doesn't look stiff straight (which is good).. looks quite natural la.. tho' its a lil flat.. but i guess it'll look better after a few washes.. hehe..yay!!!... dun need to worry about messy hair for at least 6 mths.. haha..
hmmm.. dun like my fringe tho.. haha.. but overall looks ok la. *grinz*.. spent a bomb on this.. my parents didnt' even pay a single cent.. (all thanks to my aunt) so ya'll better say its nice argh.. heez.. (but be honest la k.. i won't kill ya..) *winksz*

Saw jason before going to do my hair.. looking good as usual.. haha.. (why are u out my dear boy.. shld be home studying!! O levels is in a weeks time!! haha)

My hair stylist looks super seh.. hes a guy la.. with this super cool haircut.. 2 ear holes.. dressed in black from head to toe.. works with the scissors and comb like pro.. haha.. and he could speak english, chinese and malay also! goodness.. haha.. but if he was skinnier, better groomed and sways his butt a lil more.. i would think he's gay.. haha.. but he's a lil cute la..

he actually scolded me for bleaching my hair... (thanks ah kian hong... haha.. not ur fault la..).. oh well.. i was young and naive.. how would i know rite..??!

haha.. hmm.. today passed quite uneventfully.. my parents came back form malaysia le.. brought back loads of goodies.. yum..
Came online.. some of my MJC peeps telling me they'll be joining me in poly next year.. haiz.. dunno to be happy or sad for ya'll.. poly is a good choice.. but retaining is not a bad choice either.. especially after working so hard for a year, to repeat 1st year is like doing revision la..
(Ziting, Pam, Bibi.. dun be too sad k..)

oh well.. as long as you have a goal/purpose in life.. just work towards it.. it doesn't matter how long it takes to reach there... as long as there is smth pushing u.. motivating you.. you'll make it..

For me.. i dun really care for a degree in mass comm.. i mean a diploma is fine.. even if i could get a degree.. well then good for me.. and extra piece of paper would be nice.. haha.. but in the end.. i think i really wanna go into music/performing arts and youth ministry.. yeah.. but who knows.. maybe God has a different plan for me.. but for now.. tt's my dream.. *smilez*

All i can do is to trust my life in His hand.. let Him guide my path.. let Him use me as a tool to reach and touch other pple's life.. He's my motivation.. *grinz*

haha.. oh well.. gotta turn in.. tmr is another looooooooong day.. yeah..

*Jem.. even now.. ur tagboard is STILL cocked up..
*Pam.. i miss ya..
*Kev.. hope u pass ur bike test on friday..
*Val.. u feeling ok?

hahaz.. okie.. dad chasing me off le..
Sweet Dreams!!!!!

2004-10-26T01:33:00.000-07:00

Woke up a lil later than usual today... but still had a lil time to prepare food for lunch later.. hhehe.. i think i'm not bad a cook.. haha.. (anyone wanna try? hahaah)..
Missed the bus in the end.. haiz.. had to take cab..

Work was boring today.. cos got a few cock ups in the system.. den had to wait arnd doing nuthing till the system gets up and running again.. talked quite a bit with Jem online.. haha.. who else to talk to when everyone is either in sch or at work?...ahhz.. but will miss this lil one when he goes back to NS when his MC is over.......

oh well.. i'm super tired today.. although it was quite a boring day.. nuthing much to talk about.. but i guess my day's wasn't as boring as Jem's.. haha.. poor guy.. stuck at home..

hmm.. i guess tmr will be no different from today.. except tt my parents will be back from malaysia.. ahhhz.. finally get to eat good food again.. haha...

Did i tell ya how good taiwan sausages are??! Yew Chong brought them today.. got em specially from taiwan.. gosh.. they're so juicy and delicious.. totally awesome..haha.. i can still close my eyes and savor the sweet and salty taste of it.. combusted together with a tangy bounce in every bite.. *drools* haha...

2004-10-24T01:00:00.000-07:00

woohoo! Sunday is here! Love Sundays.. haaz.. a day where I can totally give my entire day (literally) to serve Him..

Had youth leader's meeting in the morning.. (Great to see ya today, Tom.. : P haha)
hmmm.. it was good a good time of sharing and talking about how God saw us thru the year.. come to think about it.. its quite amazing how LOL has grown even tho we are only 10 months old.. wow.. from the beginning where 2 different groups of young people coming together as one.. to the Go Wild event, fund raising, church retreat and the formations of the 5 cell groups.. I can only say.. wow.. God is so good..

The next 2 mths will be totally hetic.. the acapella for the 20th Anniversary dinner.. the dance and song performance for the Christmas at Orchard Road.. (hey.. come see us perform on the 17th and 19th Dec evening k!) Gosh.. I'm planning the youth camp on 22-24 Nov also.. then there's the Christmas Worship Concert in dec also.. haven't chosen the song with Kian Hong also.. (argh.. miss that big guy.. you’re currently at field camp now ehz.. eeee.. so smelly.. nvr bathe for a week.. hahaha..)

I guess this hol would be well spent.. hahah..

Oooookie.. coming back to today..

Val didn't feel very well today.. saw her leaving the service halfway.. I actually didn't expect her to come today cos she only got home at 5am today after doing her proj in Uni.. but I think she's not done with it yet..

After P&W, found her sitting on the floor in the toilet cubicle.. she didn't respond when I called her.. got a lil worried there.. she looked like she was asleep or smth.. the door was locked.. had to use a coin to open the door.. but her body was sorta blocking me from entering..tried talking to her.. she didn't really respond.. as if she was asleep or in a daze.. I kept calling her.. asking her what's wrong.. gosh.. didn't like the way she was behaving.. she finally opened her eyes.. blinked a bit.. then she asked, "Am I in a dream or is this real?" When she said tt I got more worried.. I think she had been really stressed up.. she didn't want to go anywhere.. not even go home to sleep..

I pushed her gently aside.. forced the door totally open so I could go in.. she looked so small.. so fragile.. so tired.. I hugged her immediately.. I could see her eyes were puffy and red.. either from crying or lack or sleep.. I felt so sad for her.. how could this screwed up Uni proj made my dear gal like this! I just held her there.. prayed for her.. then eventually got her up to clean up her face..

Today sermon was really good.. 2 Cor 1:3-11.. this passage mentioned the word "comfort" 9 times.. Jun Lan jie shared about Jesus Christ being the Father of Compassion.. comforting our every trouble.. He being the God of Miracles.. Our deliver who will continue to deliver us till the end.. I hoped Val received much from today.. on her behalf.. I felt tt today’s sermon was speaking to her directly.. ahz...

Hey peeps.. she has to hand in her proj tmr.. so I guess she'll be working late into the night today.. pray for her k..

The rest of the day passed in a blur.. cell grp.. camp committee meeting.. dance meeting.. acapella prac.. den finally….. DINNER.. yay! Hahaah..

Finally got a new phone today.. yay! so damn happy.. hehe.. ya'll pls end me ur numbers k.. cos my phonebook missing a lot of numbers.. ya.. thanks!

Well.. gonna go slp le..

<+*~//^ I find comfort in you Lord.. Love you.. ^\\~*+>

What a day... yawnz

2004-10-23T01:04:00.000-07:00

Had today all planned out.. packed with stuff to do.. this and that.. but in the end.. the moring didn't really start that well..

Woke up at 730am.. damn sleepy cos the morning was freezing cold.. really nice to snuggle in my blankets and pillows.. MmMMMm..
Oh well.. had to force myself awake cos had a dental appointment at 9am.. at Taka.. was a lil late.. so rushed my way there..
Reached there at 910am.. but the dentist wasn't there! Freak.. that guy had to choose that time to go to the bank la.. so fed up.. how he do business wan.. i already made the appt.. den u make me wait? not as if he didn't have lunch break to go to the bank.. oh well.. no choice.. told the nurse i had to leave by 945am.. cos meeting Hao ge, pei wen and Jon at the camp site to check the place out..

930 came and went..

940 feeling a lil pek chek already.. like its a wasted trip..

945 the nurse was like damn pai seh la.. the dentist also never bring his HP out.. he best sia.. so in the end.. tried not to give such a black face to the nurse la.. so just left lor..

On the way down.. meet the dentist.. wah.. cannot stand him.. he like act as tho he's not wrong.. didn't even say sorry.. den just asked me to go up to do my teeth.. ha.. so since i was there.. just go lor..

After the dentist appt.. had to take the train all the way back to bedok.. to meet jon they all.. was wearing my lil white pointy shoes.. but i dunno wats up with the pple today.. keep stepping on them.. total of 5 times in the train!! argh..

Couldn't find the guys at bedok.. couldnt' call them cos my stupid phone was spoilt.. so after countless messages.. finally found out that they went there 1st..(thanks ah.. bang seh me..) so den made my way to the bus stop..

Could my morning get any worse? yeah.. missed the bus..(-_-")

oh well.. spent my waiting time trying to lift up my spirits.. haha..

oh ya.. on the bus got this pervertic ah pek.. sat a few seats in front of me.. den he keep turing his head.. staring at me.. so scary.. cos the bus quite empty.. i like slunk lower in my seat to avoid his gaze.. but he's so yuck la.. (guys out there.. dun grow up to be like tt k.. totally gross!)

but anyways.. the time was well spent there.. really excited for the youth camp in November..! woohoo! gonna be awesome.. can't wait!

Had a great time jamming with the band.. Jon was totally hyper.. jumping arnd.. Felicia also (hmm.. must be the new hair cut.. haha..) Hao ge also played drums quite well this time round.. (great job manz!!)
Quite funny hearing Didi sing One Way.. cos he kept singing the high part.. he dunno how to sing with a low gruffy voice.. haha.. soprano sia.. hahaha (tsk tsk..better go home and practice ah)..
Wah… saw David’s fingers after the prac.. they were like blue black la.. from pressing the guitar strings.. I think they’ve been like that for a long time le.. just that I never really saw it so grossly green.. till today.. haha..

After the prac.. went to the coffee shop to have dinner.. manz.. was starving la.. the yong tau foo was fantastic.. haha.. MmmMm..
The 5 of us (Jon, David, Hao ge and Choo Qi) became hyper again la.. joked and laughed a lot.. it was freezing cold la.. all the lame jokes.. haha.. played some silly games also.. den Jon had to do some stupid forfeit before we left the place..

Haha… by then forgot about the bad morning le.. was quite happy on the way back home… *smilez*

Upon reaching home.. got an sms from Jian Quan…. He sorta freaked me out cos the sms read smth like “Hey, I think you just reach home rite”, just as I walked into the house.. talk about coincidental manz… haha..

Hmm.. did a lot of thinking too... thought about life.. haha.. not my usual kinda thoughts but ya.. the more i thought the more i feel amazed... this world, the billions of pple walking on it.. the animals.. so many different species.. insects.. birds.. gosh.. countless creatures.. but yet here i am, alive, breathing, working.. my life is like a grain of sand in the world..but yet i have a Father up there who knows me by name.. cares for me.. clothed me.. gave me a name.. gave me a purpose..
Wow.. haha.. like so drama ah..

Yeah.. but i'm really amazed.. at His love.. tho i may doubt him at times.. He's still merciful to shower his blessings.. and never leaving us stranded..

You Will Never Walk Alone
by Lowell Alexander
from "Free to Fly"

Along life's road
There will be sunshine and rain
Roses and thorns, laughter and pain
And 'cross the miles
You will face mountains so steep
Deserts so long and valleys so deep

Sometimes the journey's gentle
Sometimes the cold winds blow
But I want you to remember
I want you to know

You will never walk alone
As long as you have faith
Jesus will be right beside you all the way
You may feel you're far from home
But home is where He is
And He'll be there down every road
You will never walk alone

The path will wind
And you will find wonders and fears
Labors of love and a few falling tears
Across the years
There will be some twists and turns
Mistakes to make and lessons to learn

Sometimes the journey's gentle
Sometimes the cold winds blow
But I want you to remember
Wherever you may go

Jesus knows your joy
Jesus knows your need
He will go the distance with you
Faithfully
