-嬉しい-

今日は、本当に嬉しかったよ　（＾＿＾）

Sometimes, simple unexpected things can really make your day. It leaves one smiling non-stop. I hope i don't wake up the next morning and realise it was all a dream.

Anyway, this was a picture i took on my way to the airport. It's so pretty that i decided to put my mark on it. Hehe.

-ただいま！-

皆さん！ただいま！

Oh crap, Ying, i just read your tag and my gosh!! How did you find out?! MANN. How can our FAVOURITE tutor leave us to fend for ourselves for Level 4?! Faints. どうして！！ホリエ先生は？？Eeeee...this is bad news :( Hahaha, i wonder what Karen is going to say about this...

Anyway, the trip was...i should say, fine..but it could have been loads better. Yup :) Some photos!!

These photos were taken on my way from the airport to the hotel. I was ravenous that night i tell you. The airport staff broke one of our luggage and alot of procedures had to be taken. It was so troublesome that we settled for a measly S$40 as compensation. But obviously it was not enough to cover the costs but what could we say? The alternative was that they emptied our luggage and they will take it to repair. I mean like..what the?! It was just the start of the holiday and the alternative wasn't much of an alternative, seriously. It would take days for them to get the luggage repaired! Haha, anyway, it wasn't a good start. I reached the hotel at about 9pm.

But it was okay. I had some time on the bus alone to the hotel and snapped some shots :)

Hahahaha, this is one of the pictures i took of the cabs with a rather interesting type of advertising. A crab on the cab!!

Yep..my hotel lobby! Pretty isn't it?! Hahaha, admit it, i can be an artistic photographer :D

It was close to midnight and take a look at the streets! Still bustling with activity!! Cool huh?! Now i understand when they say 'the city that never sleeps..'

The dimsum restaurant for breakfast the next morning!! It was seriously too early for breakfast... I didn't get to take any pictures of the food because you know how the elders expect you to observe table manners. Okay, hahaha, at least it applies to me.
OOOhh, i remember that morning! It was really windy and i was feeling cold despite wearing a jacket!! Ahhh..but the scenery. Beauty, ain't it?!

That silly guy's head just popped into my picture :(

RAH!! 1 of them is my dad's yacht!! Hahaha okayy i'm only kidding...

I was forced to take the below picture like this. See my forced smile. GRR.


Look at the beach! No one's sun-tanning because it's so cold.


Ahhh.. I love pictures of the sea "_"


Us onboard Star Ferry!


Yep! Us with the advertisement. Hahah!


Ooh! This was taken in another country on this trip as well ;) Ahahaha, it was supposed to be a jumping shot but this paticular photographer...Ahem..Hahaha suddenly reminded me of Daryl...Hahahaa...just cropped off our legs. There's a nicer one in Ken's camera. I must remember to get it from him!


Wheeee! One of our late night suppers in the hotel room. I got the star donut. Oh my gosh. It's delicious!!! Inside the donut there's also fillings! MMmm. Smacks lips.


Supposed to be a shopping spree that night but my legs were killing me and the crowd spoiled my mood somewhat.


RAAAHH! Another beautiful day!!



On the peak. Oh I love the colour of the sky.

Yep! By now you should have realised i love snapping shots of the scenery too :D

Pretty flowers along the road

That's me! I have a thing for outstretched hands. Yes i know. WAHAHAH! I love the stars!!

You see. Another picture with outstretched hands. Hahaha!

I'm having my hand prints done. RAHAHAH!

One jump. And the perfect shot. Oosh.

Okay. I might post more pictures another day. I got to go now. Cheerios peeps!

-FREEDOM-

自由。じゆう。Freedom. 自由。じゆう。Freedom.

WHHEEEEEEEE!!!!

Exams are OOOOVVVEEEEERRRRR!!!!

Breathe in the air of freedom!! WAHAHAHAHA! Totally feel so much lighter now that the burden of examinations have been finally lifted. Shan't think about the results part yet. I shall enjoy what i can noww!!! Yippeee YAY! Okayy so most of you have already been freed but whatever!!! I'm free now!!!

And not a single bit of fatigue at all now :)

The picture below shows what my world was like for the past weeks. Caged. Confined. Away from the beautiful world behind the cage!

BUT it's over now!!! Whhhheeeee! And Glo has kindly lent me the DVD!! Though i've already watched it. I'm still going to watch it again. With stereo and a big screen :D Currently watching 野ブタ。をプロデュース。It was rather draggy in the first episode and well, i'm halfway through the 2nd. Wen said it is pretty good though. Perhaps you all could check it out if you like :) And guess what?! The main actress is Maki Horita!! So coincidental! Maki-chan is the one below in the centre! HAHAHA! So the both shows are starring her! And i honestly stumbled upon Nobuta not knowing she was in the show! In fact i only realised she was in the show only in the 2nd episode though she appeared in the first. HAHAHA. If you watch the show you will know why i said that. No spoiler! ;)

Anyway, I just had to post the below 2 pictures of my formula sheet that i painstakingly copied out for my exam. That is the result of not having an open book exam but only allowed a single A4 size paper. So me being me, squeezed everything i could in that A4 size because i really didn't want to miss out any formula. Call it 'kiasu' whatever you like but at least it helped me in the exam!! I was too lazy to memorise...HAhAH and yet you might wonder why i actually bothered to copy everything out :) I TOOK ALMOST A DAY TO COPY THIS STUPID THING.

One side...

And the other...

DARYL!!!! Okay you will be reading this late but i hope you are having (or rather, had) fun!! I'm sure it was fun!! HAHAHA. Anyway, regarding the MPE, Veron is helping me do it. Not sure what modules we'll be taking yet though. You contact her yea?! I'll give your number to her as well. And yesss, in case you're wondering. You have her number. Unless you deleted it. Hahaha. I'm sure i gave you the number in the beginning of the semester :) And yea DARYL!! You judge for yourself my language skills! HAHAHA. I actually read the whole of the book below :) It was pretty good though the process, i must admit, was rather painful and slow. Hahaha!

KUAILE!! You are so mean!! HAHAHA! Keep asking me to add more oil! I can't afford any more oil already!! Fuel is expensive now you know. RAHAHAHA. And yesss i'm so going to look like a pig the next time you see me. Movie movie!!! I have so many movies i want to watch!!!!

Okie! I really got to go now! Ciao peeps! Please wait for my next post patiently! Danke! Danke is in German by the way ;) Ending off with a handmade keychain gift I recently received!! HAHAHA, once again, Danke! :D

-生日快乐-

快乐！祝你生日快乐！！！！！

哈哈！今天，第一次在这里用华文来写作。真不习惯。打起字来也怪怪的。我到底跟华文脱离了多久呢？快乐！你看！我为了你做出那么大的一个付出！‘幸福’给‘快乐’最大的拥抱！

感动吧！

到如今，我应该已学会了至少四种语言来沟通。不敢说我的语言能力很精通，但至少还能跟人聊一阵子吧！哈哈！别小看我啦！我知道我有时候糊里糊涂的，但也误到误撞地学了不少啊！如果有错别字，请你多多包含！哈哈！我真的尽力了！

好了啦，在这里打字也花了不少时间。应该回去读书了！明天和大后天还得考试呢！

请别再叫我‘加油’了！我已经在这考试的期间里增了不少肥油啦！必须在新的一年前把这些肥肉也去除掉！

-NewSkin!-

Alas, the transience of life. What lies ahead is beyond us, mortals, to fathom. A sudden wave smothered 5 bright futures of such vibrance, passion and vigor. To the families and friends of the 5 youths, we share your pain. Though we might not fully understand your loss, please do realise you're not alone during this period of trial. They continue to live, in the hearts of their loved ones.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(I apologise for the irrelevance of the above and following post)

NEW SKIN! Rather plain but adopted this just to stay away from black backgrounds for a while. Downside?! My previous entries were rather colourful and visibility of some posts and words are rather low -.-

Anyway, 3 papers down! 2 more to go. Thanks to all for the encouraging SMSes, offline messages and tags (^-^) Special mention to Wen, Kuaile and Gab (*-*) And yess, i get all cranky during the examination periods. Especially immediately after the papers, i'm a total wreck.

But i recently realised how my worries and concerns pale in comparision to others. Examinations are my sole priority to the extent i neglect many other important issues that make life wholesome and meaningful. Life is so short and unpredictable. Let's treasure each day and let people around us, friends and family alike, know how much we care for each and every one of them (*-*) We don't want to regret not having done or said something when it's too late. So tell the people whom you care for how you feel!

To ALL you my lovely friends, I'm sincerely glad and thank God for having known and met all of you!! :)

And to my family : I LOVE all of you despite our occasional disagreements and bickering ;)

Cheerios peeps! Tomorrow will be a better day. So long as we keep faith and keep heart :)

-Christmas!-

My FAVOURITE time of the year is approaching!!!

Of course i'm not referring to the impending examinations.. I'm referring to CHRISTMAS!!!! Say whee!! Hahaha, are your home decorations up?! My home has been decorated since a few weeks back!! More additions as the days pass! I love Christmas! The lights, the music, the joy and happiness. Simply B-L-I-S-S. But i'm not feeling the bliss just yet. I was just complaining to my dad about us having to bury our heads in books while the rest of the world is soaking in the festivities. ARGH. Yes, i'm being sore about my confinement to my home. ("^-^")

-PLEASE HELP!-

HELLO ALL!!

URGENT!

I desperately need volunteers who speak and understand Japanese on the 4th or/and 5th of December (evenings). Anyone free and interested please contact me ASAP!!





__________________________________________________________________

My mum recently bought me this shirt. Ain't it cute?! WAHAHA! I love it to bits! Totally epitomises my state now. My dad bought me another memory card too! WAHH! Totally feeds my love for photography. Chuckles.

-Wheee!!!-

WHEEEE! I just called up the coordinator and asked about the uploading of my photo. Apparently there was some technical glitches that caused such a weird problem. But i called up to ask if i had to ask them to release my application so i could upload my photo once more but she said even if she releases it, i still might not be able to upload my photo so she suggests leaving it as that. Oh wells. I am praying so hard i will not be kicked out just because of the photo! But she said it's fine, so i believe (and praying hard) that it will indeed be fine and not affect my application!
Ahh..i have tried my best. If i really don't get it, i have nothing to say. Because i have done all i could :)

Anyway, i received an SMS from YY this morning wishing all of us luck and good health in this period. AHHH!!! How long have i not seen you guys?! I MISS ALL OF YOU!!!

M,ML,ZX,YY,SM,FEN,WEN!!

Okay, i see Wen and M on a weekly basis but i still enjoy hanging out as a WHOLE GROUP!!! When was the last time we all met?! Goodness. That was eons ago! FARFISH! I miss you loads!! I miss your hug, your smile, your laughter and simply your presence! ML!! You seemed to have just vanished from my life! Hope you are doing well! ;) Meet up soon and you can fill me in on your interesting life!! Huggss! I MISS YOU SO MUCH!!

I miss those times when the school was so small. We bump into each other all the time. Waving to each other along the corridor, the slappings on the backs and even hugs in the cafe :) OOOH! Not forgeting our breakfast meetings at such unearthly hours. WAHAHAHA! Now we hardly get to meet!! If my application is successful, this is another sacrifice i have to make. AHHH!! I hope to meet up soon too!!! HUGGSSSS!

Press on, we must! Hang in there! TO EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU who are currently buried under your books. Love you all!

(hahaha more like i'm trying to psyc myself up)

-Computing-

Yesterday was the last computing tutorial we had! And the CA results were also released last night! It was strange that there seemed to be a negative relationship between the amount of the time we put in for the project and the marks awarded. The results for the individual website designing was such a letdown. I thought i would do pretty well but apparently not so. Hahaha, okayy, so this is the 'signal' (econs term) that i'm not cut out to be a website designer. Wheee. So no one would want to hire me as a website designer \(^_^)/ Mann, i can just imagine if Daryl hadn't helped me on this, i probably would have done worse. Hahaha, anyway, the NS project was a resounding success! Say YAY!! Chuckles. For a group consisting of 4 girls and just 1 guy doing on NS, we were an absolute success!! :D

The photos taken from yesterday!! I almost died laughing looking at the first photo! Somehow KW just blocked MissZhong out. Miss Zhong is our extremely nice and helpful tutor by the way. And the photographer didn't even tell KW to move! WAHAHAHAH! Check it out! Myr was laughing so hard she pounded her fists against the wall after that.

My gosh! And the whole purpose of the picture was to take with Miss Zhong! HAHAHA! Daryl should befriend this girl who took the photo for us. WAHAHAHAHA! So we finally got took another shot!

But the smiles faded somewhat in this picture because it took quite some time and adjustments before this photo was finally taken. Hahaha, i shan't elaborate. In any case, the photographer was changed. Wheehee! :P

So there! My darling computing group! I absolutely love this group! We work so well together! I thoroughly enjoyed every single moment together with them! HUGGSSS! We talk about everything under the sun!! To all you lovelies, i hope we'll meet up again!!

Twinnie! I'm so glad we could take the same module and tutorial together! It has been such a blast! Let's take another next sem!

Gloria-chan! Though i'm always your subject of mockery and teasing, i still LOVE you!!! Admit it, you love me too. WAHAHAHA!

KeXin!!! My protector!!! Always standing up for me when glo just can't resist poking fun at me!! What can i say?! You're the best!

Kangwei! You're totally an asset to our group! ありがとうなぁ！And you, along with the rest, brought so much joy to my Fridays!!

Whheeee! See you all soon! Hang on there! It'll be over before we know it ;)

-日本語のドラマ-

絶対に勝つ！

Hahaha, okay today marks the end of my oral interview. The interview was...easier than what i thought it would be though i didn't get many opportunities to speak. Hahaha, okay but it is over now. I'm glad i actually could understand almost everything Okada Sensei said despite his speed. WHEE! :D And even my super pro partner couldn't even catch what he was saying! *winks* ;) I'm good k. I was too fluent for my own good because i didn't use the new forms that we have learnt. ROARS. Hahaha, everything was "はい、いいですよ!", "はい、そうです！" "はい、わかりました！" Mannn...what happened to 新しいフォーム？！でも、今大丈夫よ！おわったから。。。（＠＿＠）試験にがんばっれ！！！

最近は、新しいの日本語のドラマを見るのは始まった。＜はなきみ＞というドラマ！大好き！！中津さんはハンサムね！ハハ！！

でも、下の写真は、中津さんが見えないよ！いないから。。おかしい。。。

ええと。。。この写真は見えます！！

左の人！ハンサムね！

ワハハハハ！（＊＿＊）どうしてシンガポールにはこのタイプの人がいない？！

あぁぁぁぁ 。。。すごい！;)

Really had fun with some of my TA mates today. HAhaha, i realised i am so fluent when i'm speaking nonsensical stuff. 　たとえば、＜＜いい天気から、富士山がみえるよ！＞＞ Okay, they aren't really nonsense but random. Hahahaha, Charlotte is soooo funny! She's so animated when she speaks! かわいい！（＾－＾）Stayed back and laughed and talked and gossiped and so what else is new?! Hahaha, but this will be the last day we can do that now as we won't see each other anymore except in the exam hall.

ダイル！！（あなたの名前の書き方は正しい？？）Though we hope your wish comes true and that you can get your SEP, but we also hope you can stay on and take classes together next sem!! HAHAHAHA! Ying said we could all try balloting for the same tutorials again! あたしそう思う！でも、we shall leave it to fate! Wheehee!

Exams are really really near and time is running out!! 時間がない！！！And there are so many things i wish to watch！Eeeee...i allow myself to watch 1 episode each day to reward myself. Yes i know i'm slow...only starting to watch this now. Yesyes.. Chuckles. But at least i'm watching! WAHAHAH! Okay peeps!

Our last dash!


絶対に勝つ！がんばれ！！ファイト！ファイト！

wahahahaha!
