while some of us are sleeping in in this nice cool weather in the early morning, this is what had happened in orchard road caused by the heavy rain.

check this out.

lucky plaza's foodcourt.

outside taka.

from yahoo news:

IT specialist Ow Yong Hong, who was travelling along Orchard Road on SBS No. 65, witnessed first-hand the severe flooding said:

”I’ve never seen such flooding along Orchard Road before. Some cars completely broke down at the junction between Lido and Orchard Road. Drivers were stuck inside and were helpless. The water level was so high it even seeped into my bus. Commuters who had to alight had to take off their shoes and roll up their trousers before getting off. People at the bus-stops were standing on the benches to avoid the water.”

okay. this is damn funny.

either they swim outta there or they wait for hours before somebody come in a boat to rescue them. imagine they gotta pee urgently? HAHAHAH.

starbucks at liat.

(and the bf told me to bring a straw there for free coffee. u noe, dissolved coffee powder + water)

SCDF to the rescue

outside massimo dutti.

hermes was also flooded and we were thinking of waiting outside for birkin bag to float out.

rolex building

to this, the bf said he'll wait for rolex to float out cuz it's waterproof/water resistance, sell it and buy hundreds of ipad, cameras rather than waiting for those that might float out from lucky plaza. lol.

and i'm wondering, is it flooded in seconds? heavy rain and u noe it's flooding but u're still sitted on the bench waiting for bus? just how was the situation like?

i wonder.

BUT THIS IS SO WORTH BLOGGING.

lol.

help if u can. Sunday, May 2, 2010 2:59 PM

A breeder/owner at Pasir Ris wanted to close operations and sell his existing stock of 75 dogs to other breeders. Concerned dog rescuers banded together to save the dogs. They bought over the dogs, rented the place for a month to build up the dogs with the plan of finding them good adoptive homes.

A group of volunteers have been going there for the past few days to clean up the place, wash the dogs, feed the dogs, send the dogs to vets for help.

please help if u can.

they need:
1. HANDS-ON HELP: washing the place, washing the dogs, feeding the dogs, etc. Volunteers needed.
2. TRANSPORTATION: trips to the vet, buying things etc.
3. FOSTERERS: Temporary homes for the dogs until they find adoptors
4. ADOPTORS
etc

here's the newspaper writeup,

Junko Furuta Sunday, April 11, 2010 8:24 PM

This is one of the most notorious and worst cases of torture murder ever recorded in history. It is also one of the most horrifying and heartbreaking.
Exactly twenty years ago, a sixteen year-old girl was going through the most unimaginable pain, waiting for the endless suffering she was going through to end. For 44 days, nobody helped her.
Her killers are now free men. Justice has never been served, not even after 20 years.
Once you hear the story, it is not easily forgotten. Her 44 days of suffering will forever be known.
WARNING: FOR STRONG AND COMPASSIONATE HEARTS ONLY:
On November 22, 1989:
Junko Furuta was a girl in Japan who was held captive in a house by four boys. There, she was raped countless times, then tortured to death in unimaginable and incomprehensible ways for 44 days. She was 16 years old.
————————————————————–
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junko_Furuta
——————————————————————
(from Wikipedia)
The crime:
In November of 1988, Boy A (then 18), Boy B (Jo Kamisaku, then 17; Kamisaku was a new family name he took after being released from prison [1]), Boy C (then 16) and Boy D (then 17) from Tokyo abducted and held Furuta, a second year high school (grade 11) student from Saitama Prefecture in Misato, for 44 days. They kept her captive in the house owned by the parents of Boy C.
To forestall a manhunt, Boy A coerced Furuta into calling her own parents and telling them that she had run away from home, but was with “a friend” and was not in danger. He also browbeat her into posing as one of the boys’ girlfriends when the parents of the house where she was held were around, but when it became clear that the parents would not call the police, he dropped this pretext. Furuta tried to escape several times, begging the parents more than once to help her, but they did nothing, apparently out of fear that Boy A would hurt them. Boy A was at the time a low-level yakuza leader and had bragged that he could use his connections to kill anyone who interfered.
According to their statements at their trial, the four of them raped her, beat her, introduced foreign objects including an iron rod into her vagina, made her drink her own urine and was fed cockroaches, inserted fireworks into her anus, and set them off, forced Furuta to masturbate, cut her nipple with pliers, dropped dumbbells onto her stomach, and burned her with cigarettes and lighters. (One of the burnings was punishment for attempting to call the police.) At one point her injuries were so severe that according to one of the boys it took more than an hour for her to crawl downstairs to use the bathroom. They also related that “possibly a hundred different people” knew that Furuta had been imprisoned there, but it is not clear if this means they visited the house at different times while she was imprisoned there, or themselves either raped or abused her. When the boys refused to let her leave, she begged them on several occasions to “kill (her) and get it over with”.
On January 4, 1989, using one of the boys’ loss at mah-jongg as a pretext, the four beat her with an iron barbell, poured lighter fluid on her legs, arms, face and stomach, and set her on fire. She died later that day of shock. The four boys claimed that they were not aware of how badly injured she was, and that they believed she had been malingering.
The killers hid her corpse in an 55-gallon drum filled with cement; the perpetrators disposed the drum in a tract of reclaimed land in Koto, Tokyo.
Arrest and punishment
The boys were arrested and tried as adults; but, because of Japanese handling of crimes committed by juveniles, their identities were sealed by the court. However, a weekly magazine Shukan Bunshun reported their real names, claiming “Human rights aren’t needed for brutes.”[2] Furuta’s real name and details about her personal life were reported exhaustively in the media. Kamisaku was judged as a sub leader, at least according to the official trial.
The four boys pled guilty to a reduced charge of “committing bodily injury that resulted in death”, rather than murder. Boy A’s parents sold their house for approximately 50 million yen and paid this as compensation to Furuta’s family.[citation needed]
For his participation in the crime, Kamisaku served eight years in a juvenile prison before he was released, in August 1999. In July 2004, he was arrested for assaulting an acquaintance, whom he believed to be luring a girlfriend away from him, and allegedly bragged about his earlier infamy. [1] Kamisaku was sentenced to seven years in prison for the beating.
Junko’s parents were dismayed by the sentences received by their daughter’s killers, and enjoined a civil suit against the parents of the boy in whose home the crimes were committed. When some of the convictions were overturned on the basis of problematic physical evidence (the semen and pubic hair recovered from the body did not match those of the boys who were arrested), the lawyer handling the civil suit decided there was no case to be made and refused to represent them further. (There is speculation that the evidence may have been contaminated—for example, by unidentified persons who raped Furuta.
One of the most disturbing parts of this true story is that her killers are now free. After putting Junko Furuta through all that suffering, they are free men.
-What they did to her and the suffering-
These horrifying things done to Junko Furuta had been collected through the Japanese court trial of the case, and blogs from 1989. They show the pain that Junko Furuta had to endure before she was finally dead. All this had happened to her while she was still alive. They are disturbing, but the truth.
All of this had happened.
-
DAY 1: November 22, 1988: Kidnapped
Kept captive in house, and posed as one of boy’s girlfriend
Raped (over 400 times in total)
Forced to call her parents and tell them she had run away
Starved and malnutritioned
Fed cockroaches to eat and urine to drink
Forced to masturbate
Forced to strip in front of others
Burned with cigarette lighters
Foreign objects inserted into her vagina/anus
DAY 11: December 1, 1988: Severely beat up countless times
Face held against concrete ground and jumped on
Hands tied to ceiling and body used as a punching bag
Nose filled with so much blood that she can only breath through her mouth
Dumbbells dropped onto her stomach
Vomited when tried to drink water (her stomach couldn’t accept it)
Tried to escape and punished by cigarette burning on arms
Flammable liquid poured on her feet and legs, then lit on fire
Bottle inserted into her anus, causing injury
DAY 20: December10, 1989: Unable to walk properly due to severe leg burns
Beat with bamboo sticks
Fireworks inserted into anus and lit
Hands smashed by weights and fingernails cracked
Beaten with golf club
Cigarettes inserted into vagina
Beaten with iron rods repeatedly
Winter; forced outside to sleep in balcony
Skewers of grilled chicken inserted into her vagina and anus, causing bleeding
DAY 30: Hot wax dripped onto face
Eyelids burned by cigarette lighter
Stabbed with sewing needles in chest area
Left nipple cut and destroyed with pliers
Hot light bulb inserted into her vagina
Heavy bleeding from vagina due to scissors insertion
Unable to urinate properly
Injuries were so severe that it took over an hour for her to crawl downstairs and use the bathroom
Eardrums severely damaged
Extreme reduced brain size
DAY 40: Begged her torturers to “kill her and get it over with”
January 1, 1989: Junko greets the New Years Day alone
Body mutilated
Unable to move from the ground
DAY 44: January 4, 1989: The four boys beat her mutilated body with an iron barbell, using a loss at the game of Mah-jongg as a pretext. She is profusely bleeding from her mouth and nose. They put a candle’s flame to her face and eyes.
Then, lighter fluid was poured onto her legs, arms, face and stomach, and then lit on fire. This final torture lasted for a time of two hours.
Junko Furuta died later that day, in pain and alone. Nothing could compare 44 days of suffering she had to go through.
When her mother heard the news and details of what had happened to her daughter, she fainted. She had to undergo a psychiatric outpatient treatment . Imagine her endless pain.
Her killers are now free men. Justice was never served, not even after 20 years.
They deserve a punishment much greater than they had put upon Furuta, for putting an innocent girl through the most unbearable suffering.
This story from 1989 is true. Please spread her story around. Everyone should know about the existence of Junko Furuta’s unimaginable and incomprehensible suffering, and this is why this group has been made.
Invite your friends. Never let her story be forgotten. If this story changes the life of at least one person then it has been worth it.
Rest In Eternal Peace,
Junko Furuta

That's a total of $224 saved. u'll need 2000 points to redeem for one voucher. of course there's other things to redeem so do check out starhub's website on the rewards catalogue, u might just find something to redeem for.

SO HAPPY!

ACCIDENT Thursday, March 18, 2010 9:59 AM

MEGA BUSY lately. going to school, running errands for parents (that used up a full tank of petrol in 2 days, that's how much) cuz they're away, fetching sis n bro to work, fetching them back. it's crazy.

and so, on that very day, 15th of march, i sent my sis n bro to work as usual and just 5mins aft my bro alight i got into an accident. scare the hell outta me.

even though it's the taxi driver who bang onto me, but it's my fault cuz i didn't check. and and and, thou i was real scared cuz no matter wad it's still my first serious accident ever since i got my license back in 2007, the taxi uncle was even more scared than me. he was trembling and even teared. i took pictures of the damage and he told me that his phone doesn't have camera functions so he can't take pictures. omg. I SWEAR HE IS DAMN POOR THING LA AND IT'S ALL MY FAULT. he doesn't now wad to do neither do i so we exchanged particulars and left.

he'd yet to call me and i dun have his contact number. -.-

seriously, everyone has been telling me to push all the blame to him and insist its not my fault so that he can't claim insurance from my side. worst come to worst, each shall pay their own damage. but but but, i dun even noe how to fight the case and i can't bear to do that to the uncle. i swear he is fucking poor thing. i would rather pay for the sell-backside-also-can't-get-that-money damages. but dad explained that that would mean his mcd will be higher/back to zero/whatever next year. something to do with the car insurance (cuz it's under his name) and will have to pay alot more for the insurance.

went to the workshop and get quotations for the repairs. everything will cost bout 2k? and i insist of paying myself cuz it's all my fault. i can't claim from insurance too cuz there's this excess thingy which i dun understand. i only know that i have to pay 3k for excess to claim from the insurance company for my repairs but this doesn't make sense cuz my repair is lesser than that.

aiya, super vexed. if only money can drop from the sky. or let me win 4d or toto (it's kinda hard cuz i dun even buy)

anybody has part time job to recommend? seriously need it. oh n i gotta pay sch fees every 4 months. 7.4k each time. :( bu xiang huo le.

horoscope says,

Even though something may not appear to work out well, there could be a few twists in store that will transform a situation for the better. keep an optimistic attitude.

dunno if it's true but i choose to believe it.

maybe i'll strike toto or 4d afterall.
