preparing...

tml's my BIG day liao..
so need to prepare prepare abit.. *but im feeling lazy, so thanks to mum, dad, vel bro in helping me in the preparation*

went to the doc @ wdl polyclinic to see my hand as well as the dry skin.
the doctor referred me to ttsh to see the bone ortho.. blah blah blah.. specialist..

home sweet home!

yah.. indeed the heavy snow did have some impact on me.
okie, lemme recall wat happened on that day..

went to the kommune in the morning to cancel my residential status, expected to take a long time but it was faster than expected. probably i was the first.

since i had some time left so i went to take a look at the wallet i wanted to buy for dad again. but after much consideration, i decided not to buy anymore cos i tink it doesnt suit him.

went to the lyngby station and waited for stephen. he offered to help me to the airport cos my hand's injured. so in return i went to the bakery and got him breakfast. the first time i put wat i learn in class into practise.

really snowing very heavy man. the snow reached 10cm below my knee.
snow layers covered the pavement.
stephen followed me home and got my lugguage. saw the bus 194, i tink due to the snow, the lady bus driver was very kind, seeing that we wanted to board the bus and with our heavy stuff, she drove the bus up to where we were and stopped for us.
then we managed to catch the connecting trains in time to the airport. reached the airport at ard 12plus.

really grateful to stephen.. helping me when in need. so to express my gratitude, we had burger king for lunch. took a few pics in the airport's burger king on our own.. so funny...

okie time to check in... didnt know wat to buy for mummy they all, so decided to buy perfume at cph airport since i wont have much time to shop at bangkok's airport.

waited til abt 4pm *dk time* before the plane depart cos the snow covered the wings and they needed time to clear it.
so by the time i arrival at bangkok, i missed the connecting plane back to singapore.
had to reschedule the flight and i had to stay in bangkok for about 2hrs...
in the end, i went shopping again for more perfumes and stuff.. have nv been to thailand except for the last time i transit here... im amazed bu the cheapness in stuff here..
i just use the card as if there's no limit... oPps~

back home. on the plane from bangkok back to singapore, there was 2 air-stewardess, quite helpful and beautiful and the hongkong celebrity duo 'twins' lookalike.

touched down. dad, mum, bro and sisters n ken were waiting for me at the arrival there.. hehez...

flight time too long, my body so bloated, water retention.
went to johnson duck to eat.

then went to bugis to walk walk and look for peishan there.. she was very surprised, screamed like mad, cos i lied that i wld be coming back on the 31st.. =)

back to singapore time =)

fiNaL hOmE!

copenhagen time 2.58am 29dec now..
im going home to board the plane later in the noon liao..

just came back from outside. went out for a walk with nina, its snowing.
jonna just msged nina that tml *as in this coming day* will be snowing very heavily.
so nina reminded me to have enough time to allow for any delay on my way to airport, just in case.

my last chat with mum on 28th dec at 11pm before i came back..
after the chat, decided to buy the wallet for dad but did a time check, gonna be at the airport real late. takes 2 hours to airport. if i go at 10.30am, reached at ard 1pm.. my flight's at 2plus...

need to go to kommune 1st in the morning, to cancel my residential thingy...


k.. blogging off at 3.10am
last time to use the wireless in this house and time to keep lappie..
cya denmark!

童话。。。

忽然间好想好想写点东西。。。
====================

她已经不记得春天是怎样的了。。二十年的夏天。。 她的第一个秋天和冬天。。

第一章：《截然不同的--夏》
夏末的感觉真好。。与她这二十年过的截然不同。。虽然是短了点儿。。但所谓“夏末、夏末”意味着的就是夏的离去，秋的驾临。。
她告别了美丽的夏天。。


第二章：《秋-驾临了》
夏天的完结--人生的第一个秋。
她感受到了秋高气爽的滋味。。
天冷了。。
曾经绿油油的树叶，它也经不住了。。渐渐的失色了。。
但它可知道它所呈现的风景是如此迷人。。


第三章：《熟悉了--秋》
她一向来都持着“过就过吧，没什么了不起、大不了，在哪儿都一样”的心态。。
这次也不例外。。慢慢的适应了、接受了秋。。
仍然盼着下雪。。。但听说22号这儿才开始冬天。。。


第四章：《乐高园之旅》
第一次外出后的远游。。
从小就爱玩LEGO〔乐高〕，
但从没想象自己会到乐高园来。
是一次偶然的谈话下，
从强仔那儿知道原来丹麦也有乐高园，
还比他抢先一步到了乐高园来玩。
好漂亮哦！


第五章：《秋别冬临》
但无声无息的。。秋悄悄的离开了。。
但它还是留下了痕迹。。
因为天一天比一天的早暗。。
他们所说的，冬天下午三点天就黑了。。
她总以为不会遇上这样的天。。
因为要走的时候冬天才刚开始，
但她错了。。。
单人之旅回来后，天下午四点就黑了。。


第六章：《快乐的单人之旅》
她人生的第一次都献给了这次。。
第一次坐飞机。
第一次自己一个人照顾自己。
第一次学丹麦语。
等、等、等。。。
但最重要的是。。
她的第一次秋假；十月的秋假，
她自己去了她一直很向往的国家：德国。第一次。


第七章：《生气勃勃的柏林》
一个人坐上往汉堡开的火车，
在汉堡转车到柏林。
一路上，看到的和丹麦所见到的截然不同
悔不当初为什么没有选择去德国。


第八章：《‘雪拼’之城--汉堡》
真郁闷。虽有‘雪拼’之城的美誉
但售卖的竟是些冬天的服饰
要不然就是些昂贵不堪的物品
好不容易才买到了新衣的PUMA鞋一对
真开心啊！
倒霉的是我好像住进了红灯区似的的街道，
心情糟透了。
还好逗留的时间不长。。。


第九章：《夏时制的完结》
原本打算开着电脑
亲眼目睹、鉴证夏时制的完结，
没想到一觉就到天亮了。
起床后便帮Peter派传单，
他要竞选市议员。


第十章：《错失了》
听说星期三将会下雪，
可等了一天都没等到。
第二天早上才被通知
是凌晨下的雪。


第十一章：《人生的第一场雪》
下雪了。
可惜我却摸不到我人生中的第一场雪，
它就停了。
好冷啊。。。~


第十二章：《考试》
国大的同学都考完试了，
就剩我了。。。
一点考试的气氛都没有；
也没有温书的心情。。
好郁闷啊！
电子厂的那科是第一门考试，
考的还满意，
但就是觉得应该可以更好的。


第十三章：《骨折了》
轻松了！（科目代号）2001终于过了，
考试之前还怕过不了。。
考完后要到高峰那儿去吃饭。。
因为他和张江要回国了。
是最后一次和他们在丹麦聚餐了。
不幸的，路上不小心，
我从脚车摔了下来，
手抽打倒车的手柄，
骨折了。
聚餐也泡汤了。


第十四章：《遗憾--道别》
12月23日，我到了campus village 去。
道李薇那儿去饭了，
我想也是我最后一次了。
因为圣诞期间他们一大班人会到瑞典滑雪
而当他们回来的时候，我已经在往回家的旅途中。
倚音也来了。
好可爱的一个女生，总是充满着歪道理。
和郝恭、张旭道别。。。
但还是没有到董鑫那儿。
珊珊回国了。。没机会和她道别。
红红的 campus village 将成为回忆。
*因为没照相留念*


第十五章：《不一样的圣诞》
以前的圣诞总是一年比一年无趣，
但今年的却不一样。
感受到了丹麦人是怎么庆祝的。
圣诞节就像我们华人的新年，
大家都忙着添购是吃的、穿的和用的。
当天，我们坐在一块儿吃饭、玩游戏，
围着圣诞树唱歌、跳舞。
之后，就是拆礼物。。从年纪最小的开始。
好温馨噢。。
我想我以后也要这样庆祝。。
有机会，我会回到那儿和他们一起庆祝的。


第十六章：《雪》
好棒哦！ 终于到tivoli来了。
虽然绑着绷带，但还是感觉很好！
下起雪了。好漂亮的景色啊！
也很配合那场景。
真希望新加坡也能下雪。


第十七章：《回家了》
这几个月来，她经历了不少。。
总觉得她和其他交流生的经历不一样，
她除了乐，也经历了人生的苦与痛，
真不容易啊！
开始期待回家了。。
可能是受伤了，
可能是快过生日了，
可能是开始想家了。。
种种的理由。。她好兴奋！

a trip to TIVOLI

the much waited trip to Tivoli, a biG big playland, like those gamestores in our big big pasar malam lidat, but of cos the quality of the facilities is better than that of pasar malam's.

but kinda disappointed.. cos hand injured so cannot play that exciting roller coaster or free fall..
then kinda went with the not-so-right pple...

anw, supposed to be a free entry *cos nina got a free tix for me* but she forgot to bring, only brought along hers and her ex-colleague's, so in the end, she asked me to pay. kinda disappted with her response..
then nvm, cos me taking bus, she intended to bike there, but before i left, i told her its snowing, so she joined me in taking the bus. then i gotta wait for her, in the end, we were both late for the bus. then she blamed me for not telling her earlier. *inside me was thinking, kaoz, i nv blame u for causing me to miss the bus and in the end, we hadta walk to lyngby and u are blaming me*

but anw, i didnt want to be argue with her so just let it be... this made me realised y chinese nationals has such a bad name for themselves...
like i mentioned before, not all chinese nationals are bad eggs.. there are some 素质比较高的。。like those i met at DTU... actually, to determine if a certain chinese national is gOOd or bad, u just hafta 相处 with them for say 3days or maybe less, and u can tell if that person is gOod or bad.. *well, at least thats wat i tink*
u can certainly judge them from their 言行举止, they tell all manz...

tOok a few pics.. will definitely b back to Tivoli if i return to Denmark next time, to try the rides.
will post the pics after i return to singapore bah.. so many pics havent post yet, seems to be so lazy and busy these days.. busy packing... gOing home..

dOnt know why, 随着回家的脚步满满的逼近，我开始感到兴奋，可能是手受伤的关系吧。。或是因为要回家过生日吧。。但我想最可能的原因是。。我想家了。。想爸爸、妈妈、哥哥和姐姐们了。。。当然还有新加坡的一切的一切。。。

k, back to the tivoli topic, it snowed tOday.. while at tivoli, 加强了那圣诞的气氛。。感觉好好噢。。
今天的雪比往常的大了一点点。。。好开心哦！

merry christmas!

well, this is gOnna be en entry of how i celebrated Christmas in the traditional Danish way... its really a different feel from Sg's.. and i hope next time when i start my own family, we cld also celebrate it this way..

24th Evening
tOok 2hrs of train to jonna's place at Stevn (Store Heddinge) and walk 15mins to her house *actually its 15mins of strolling* kekez

leif *jonna's husband*, tina and her lille bror *arnas? i dont know how to spell his name* (both are leif's children) and aron *their adopted child* was at the house when we got there.
went to morfar og mormors place to visit, tina & her bro sent us there in jonna's car. before we left, henning *jonna's son* came. it was a short visit at morfar og mormors place, morfar is very 热情, so is mormor but mormors engelsk not good so cant say much to me... after that we returned to jonna's place, then annette, susanne og ronni(susanne's husband-to-be) had arrived.

while waiting for fOod to be ready, we watched tv, 'jul valhal', a xmas story which is spans the 3 worlds, heaven, earth and hell.. pretty funny n interesting.

foOd's ready! we sat ard the over table. 11 of us.
the fOod was passed in one direction around, we will pick what we like and start eating and chatting. then after some time, the fOod is pass around the 2nd time for pple who has finished. we had pork *or chicken, cant tell the diff* which taste bland *but thats the danish pple's 口味* and duck meat *like 卤鸭* and whipped potatoes, brown potatoes and some other 菜 but i dont know the name.

after dinner, its game time! there is this dessert call risalamande which is white in color. inside the risalamande, there's alot of white-colored almond nuts, only one of it is in full piece, the rest is chopped into smaller pieces.
the rule is that everyone starts eating risalamande, tries to find the almond nut which is in one gOod piece. if some1 finds it, they are supposed to keep it and b quiet abt it til the risalamande is finished, then the person with the whole nut will announce and show that he/she has got it and gets a prize.
but today the rules are slightly modified, since there's so many of us. jonna put in alot of whole nuts and the ones that finds the most gets a prize.
i tink i have found 3 but not sure if they are full nut so i ate them..
susanne has 8, arnas has 7, henning and nina got 5 each, tina got 1. me and annette got none. so the 4 of them got a pressie each. so nice~

after that, it is singing christmas carol time. singing it in danish wor~
we held our hands round the xmas tree and sung.. from slow tune to faster tune, and lastly leif lead us all running around the house and even out of the house, dirtying the socks that most were wearing, lucky me, jonna permitted me to wear my bOots into the house, so i had no problem with it at all.. kekez

then after that, we moved to another living rOom. sat down, started distributing the pressies to their respective owners.. then i got one fra aron, en fra jonna og leif og an andet fra susanne og ronni.

once again, we sat around the table. aron started opening his pressies, then henning, i thot it was gg in the anticlkwise convention but later they skipped arnas to me, then i realise the pressie opening thingy is done by age.. from the youngest to the eldest. henning is 20 but im older than him, im also 20 but turning 21 sOon..kekez

after pressie opening, we sat ard, chatted for a while. jonna told me they planned to go church but they are 10mins late so in the end, we didnt go.
after awhile, susanne and ronni went home, arnas left as well..
so me, nina, tina, henning and annette stayed overnight at jonna's house.

25th Morning
woke up to have breakie.. notice aron and henning not eating wat we are eating, they just ate cereal..

the weather is very nice, so me and nina went out for a walk, tOok some pics...

then afternoOn, aron and henning ate the same thing again.. i got curious and asked henning, y is he eating cereal.. he told me cos he didnt like the stuff.. i got even more curious, esp to hear that he didnt like rugbord, a kind of bread speciality to the Danes..

wanted to take some more pics with jonna and leif but we left in a haste, so kinda no chance to...

but before we left, me and jonna exchanged addresses.. so we cld keep in touch!

beautiful and unique christmas experience~

back to lyngby... 11.15pm

*probably the last* dinner @ Campus Village

intended to have the dinner on 22nd but gotta go buy pressie for Leif (jonna's husband)*got him a lighter in a gold bar shape* so postponed to a day later..

got to school before 12, before the international counsellors at the int'l affairs office go for 1wk break til 2 Jan'06, queried abt the transcript thingy but the only guy said he's new and he dont know.. so no choice, gotta email the pple. i hate to leave things hanging lidat but no choice...

went to lOok for vivian but she's still sleeping so i waited in her room while she continued sleeping. we tOok off my lOck, bell and lightholder before we pushed it back to my house. put the bike back to the basement and invited vivian into my rOom.. abit messy but she didnt mind.
then i gave her some stuff which i dont intend to bring home cos she doesnt mind, and cos of my hand condition now and also, as a token of appreciation tat she helped me and invited me to dinner *though i didnt tell her all these*.

chatted for a while before we made our way back to CV. we strolled back again, the feeling is so nice.. i wonder when can i have the chance again.. no more i guess..

yiyin and fu wenjing was invited to the dinner as well.. cos there was another group of pple organising some dinner so we sat together and shared the fOod vivian and they made. its once again a yummie fEast!

realised i havent tOok any pics in DTU, initially thot of taking it after we return from my place but forgotten. wanted to go ard the CV to say gOodbye to pple i know.. also forgot til last min when gg home then remember.. but yiyin is in a rush to go home so i thot i can always come back to say gOodbye. who knows, after i come back then realised the pple i know all will be out on holies or have returned home by the time i return to DTU on the 28th (even vivian is gg to sweden, stockholm on the 26th, so this will be the last time we are meeting each other). so sorrie that i cldnt bid farewell to them personally, its really nice knowing them!

11.13pm after dInNer at campUs V

shagged..

woke up real early this morning cos got the DSP exam, last paper for this semester. another reason was cos of my hand; needed more time to wash up and change, and make it in time for the bus schedule. *cos hafta take bus, and there's a fixed schedule when the bus will come and its very 准时哦！*
reached the library 5mins to 8am, so gotta wait til 8am before they open.
another reason for gg to school earlier is to go library print the solutions for certain papers, *its always easier to refer to hard copies than soft copies though lappies are allowed* and also punch holes on my notes so its easier to refer to them during the exams.

checked mu DTUmail as well, didnt expect the lecturer to give such a prompt reply. i emailed him yest at the 11th hour, asking him for advise on my situation cos my hand still cannot exert much force. he said to request for time extension i need to go to the student admin pple or he can offer an oral exam in Jan if the student admin pple allows him to.
i choosed the former cos i wld like to give the paper a try and even if the student admin agrees to the oral exam, i wont be in Denmark for it.
i quickly went to the student admin, show them the doc's letter and no questions asked, they extended my exam duration for another hour, from 4 to 5hrs... actually i really doubt this extra hour wld help but its better than nthg. after that, replied to the lecturer, explaining my decision and went for the exam.

sat for the exam but a 小插曲 happened... the invigilator tOok my paper away after 4hrs of exam. i told her i had an extra hour. she kept telling me "nej, nej!" then i kept telling and explaining to her, precisely its my hand lidat thats y im here. i got 1 more hour else i wont be here. so she called the student admin pple and check it out. she returned my paper and apologised but explained that the student admin pple didnt give her any instructions abt my extra hour when they handed her the documents. this whole episode toOk 10mins and the invigilator nv compensate me for that, she collected the paper at 2pm sharp. *humph*
if she compensated me for that, i cld have checked out the answers, cos net connection was available and the solutions was posted at 2pm sharp. *humph*
anw, i only found out that the answers were out at that time ard 6plus in the evening, checked the answers, got 30plus over 100. shit, i think i gonna fail..
if i fail any of the modules here in DTU, i gotta stay back one more sem in nus.

worst, the DC lecturer Knud replied to my mail, hinted slim chances of me passing the course as well. *faint* cld it be that i only pass 1 module for SEP? oh my god!

haiz, anw, the exams are finally over and done with, actually not much in the mood to revise and study, not that i kept tinking of enjoying and playing but just that the days to going home are nearing, so 没有心情读书或温习。。。

my plans for the next few days: gg to school tml, then for christmas eve n xmas i will be gg to nina's ex host jonna's place to experience the true danish xmas celebration..
be back on the 25th, pack abit and on the 26th go tivoli! yeahz~
continue packing and do abit washing on 27th. go hospital and also, buy some food stuff for bringing home on the 28th.
then afterwhich, hOmE swEet hOme!

7.20pm slight break in elbow in cph~

...no mOod...

my hand lidat i really no mood to revise lor.. skipped the consultation class for DSP and excused myself from the meeting with federica yest. thot of gathering for one last time on tuesday cos she returning to italy today for xmas and by the time she's back, i will already be back in singapore.
and she's very nice.. upon learning my situation, she offered to help but i didnt 麻烦 her cos i tink quite inconvenient for her also.. since she setting off today..

tink i gona fail the exams.. emailed the int'l student affairs lady but she hasnt reply.. maybe gg to email the lecturer..
but meanwhile, im gg to sleep again..


crest fallen at 12.32pm cOpenhagen

in a moment, many things can really change...

well, had my 41660 Applied Mechatronics exam presentation on monday, the 19th.

considered quite satisfied with my ppt part, at least i didnt stammer, just towards the end, kinda forgot abit of wat i wanted to say.

during the Q&A session, i was lucky cos no1 asked abt the software execution part, except for the teaching asst, and the lecturer quickly sort of defended for me but i still gave a 'smoking' explanation (meaning saying for the sake of saying, justa smoke thru).

then we waited outside the room cos they will annonuce the results immediately after their discussion.
there were 3 examiners: the lecturer, teaching asst and an external examiner. soeren says he saw the external examiner's note with 5, 0.. does that mean he gave our report 5 marks and presentation 0 pts..
im starting to worry.. cos a grade 6 and above constitute a pass in the danish system..
wasnt so worried before the presentation, cos i spoke to soeren and svienn, they arent that worried.. so that sort of calm me down.. plus the 'danish' personality.. so laxed abt everything..
but now after soeren made the pt abt the external examiner, for many reasons, im beginning to worry..
1st, the group before us did a very good project but they only got 10.
2nd, the making of our prototype was not successfully, the intended (or the so-call reduced) functional model.. supposed to be functional.. also cannot work, the electronics lagi worst, also cannot work. Needless to say, with the mechanics and electronics not working, it is not possible to integrate the software.

and when georg (my lecturer) and the external examiner, together with zhun, fan (our teaching asst) walked out of the room, and georg with a very depressing face, saying: "group2, i announced you.." there was a slight pause but i could almost hear him saying you failed the course.. he went on saying "get the grade 7." i was like omg, did i hear it correctly.. lucky i passed this course..supposed to map to EE2001. i cant imagine myself doing this in NUS... lidat sure fail in NUS.

okie, all ended at 4pm.. decided to drop by the databar first before gg to gao feng's place for dinner.. he n zhang jiang's leaving for beijing and probably the last chance to meet them for this year..

set off for the 大白楼 at 5pm on that fateful day, and just as i cycle past byg.343, 不知怎么的, the bike skidded and i fell..
everything just happened so unexpectedly, cos i was travelling along a straight road in a very relaxed mood.. yet when i realised i was falling, i kinda got experience from the previous fall and that i wld be alright, picking myself up.. just as i was doing so..the handle of the bike hit my right elbow and the next moment i was screaming in pain..
a chinese girl happened to be ard and suggest we goto byg.343 to take a rest before deciding wat to do..
wanted to call gao feng, but my hp dont have credit liao.. ordered a new card but haven get it yet..
then she suggested to try gg to one of the PhD students still in this building here.. turn out to be wu mo, my TA for DC module and also gao feng's gOod bUddy buDdiE.
he called gao feng and informed him, while waiting, wu mo tries to analyse wat is the situation of my hand condition.. make funny jokes to make me forget abt the pain and the nice green tea..
after much discussion, we finally decided to go to Gentofte Hospital to have my hands examined. --details of the ongoing discussion are left out--

reached at 6.30plus and got myself registered.. waited til 10plus before i got to see the doc.. anw, interestingly, all the pple at the EU all same problem as me.. hand injuries..
as usual, they displayed the danes' characteristic.. very laxed.. by the time i got the x-ray done and blah blah blah, it was already half past 12.

we then tOok a cab home.. must really thank gao feng for helping me.. if not for him, dont know wat to do also..
he has been the people's person lor.. always helping out whoever in need of help.. and i tink he has been really helpful thru'out my stay in denmark.
felt kinda bad cos i ruin the dinner arrangement with him and jiang and another guest, fu rong.. but i cant help it either..

anw, sthg was always on my mind thru'out the whole episode, i cant let mum and dad know, esp. mum, i tink she will get so worried and go slpless til the day i return.. and dad, though he's not so expressive but i know he will be worried for me as well.. i cant let them worry for me..
upon reading here, some of u might be thinking, if i dont want let them worry for me then take gOod care of yourself.. but the thing here is, i did and i was just cycling... i wasnt foOling around when cycling.. the bike just skidded.. i didnt expect it..

worst nightmare.. tired after a day of 折腾。。dont know how to sit for the DSP exam on thursday. shld i say im lucky cos its MCQ or im just unlucky to meet such accidents..

dOnt feel like revising at all.. gg to sleep..
12.14pm

get to know myself better..?

was reading weilin's blog when i came across this site..

http://quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx

Get to know yourself better

Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:
Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.

Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:
You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.


how true is it? hm, to a certain extent, it is true. =D

cheers~

later i asked him and found out his name.. zheng yu.. haha
马倚音。。a girl from CU *copenhagen university* came for the dinner also.. i've met her before, twice.. i guess due to her background, she tends to protray herself as a rather easy-going girl.. haiz..

just realise i knew most of them thru 高峰。。*aka hansen* guess w/o him, 我没有可能会认识这帮很好很好的朋友。。

after dinner, we had a small entertainment by vivian's fren's bf then after that, alil' chat with yiyin and vivian in her roOm.. with some occassional guest.. like yang wenyu.. and zheng yu... which was like so funny..
the 1st time in denmark i can laugh so hard til i cry...

vivian invited me to come over anytime i wished.. and i really regret not requesting for campusvillage when i came over initially.. but it will be over sOon in 16days' time..

anw, the solution for this morning's paper is out.. so disgusting.. i got none of the answers rite.. no kidding, not exaggerating.. yeah.. but none..
told KA over msn, he says that i seems unaffected.. but i thot its over liao, even though i know i probably wont pass but no point harping on it right.. besides i really dont like this module...

=D/aNniE


10.35pm virum, dk

no mOod again..

the lecturer promised to post the solution on the 10th.. but he only did it now.. mayb afew mins ago.. cos i have been constantly checking out on it for the past few days...yeah, saw my 31400 exam soln.. was so confident after the test..
but now to realise i was wrong.. it was a total flOpped!

worst, i even changed my right answer to a wrong one..
and for those i suspect was wrong, i didnt change.. darn it.. there goes my grade 11.. damnit.. maybe grade 6 now.. hope i will pass it.. shucks..

no mood to study..

y do i have the feeling im gg to be late for the paper tml..haha


10.47pm cph time...

distressed...

im feeling lethargic..not in the mood to study since friday, after my 1st paper..
alil' progress from the whole afternoon of reading.. worst, tml's the paper and here i am, reading other pple's blog, surfing the net.. and sleeping..

once heard that pple in dk also suffer from depression cos the winter is so boring! the day ends as early as 3pm.. and darkness falls in from 3pm... i cant even tell wat time is it now.. *in singapore, isnt it so convenient to just lOok out of the window and so hey, its 6pm now..*

feeling alil' distraught, over the itchiness.. then again, this mornng i suspect its not the bugs.. its the dry skin.. or maybe its allergy.. perhaps to fOod *sthg i have unknowingly eaten* or to the product *moisturiser* i've used..

thru reading others bloggie, i realised my english is deteriorating.. singlish is ruling.. no.. i cant like this happen.. used toO many '...'s instead of proper punctuation.. haiz.. hope i can use better english when blogging.. hahaz..

btw, not sure if i ever mentioned this before but im gg to find a volunteering work and volunteer upon my return.. i dont want to just be tutoring and stuff.. i hope to make a positive difference..
maybe i will choose to volun with SPS or SANA.. see if they want me anot..
but gotta wait til i return.. meanwhile just read more.. so many things to do after exams.. the travel journal as i wanted to document the places i have been to..and give a short intro.. yeah.. found a name for the page.. its http://theglobexplorer.blogspot.com, i haven done anything to it yet.. just reserve the page name.. i think its nice.. globe eXplorer..kekez

the volunteer thingy... xmas celebration.. bdae celebration.. not forgetting the CORS bidding..
wat else.. chinese new year.. gOosh.. thinking tOo far.. yah.. also wana find some internship thingy..
all these hafta wait at least til i finish my paper tml.. think i wont make it.. in the 1st place i didnt even plan to take this module but bcos i hafta top it to 4modules else hafta extend one more sem..
anw, seriously contemplating staying for another sem.. cos i wld like to do IA leh.. how..? how will employers think of me.. staying one more sem wld mean more debts incurred.. haiz.. im already zero with my account cos of this sep..
sianz..


8.48pm still incurring debts...

the itch...

i guess i haven been blogging abt the itch that i had for the past few days.. decided to come another overhaul..changed bedsheets..
cant figure out why im itching.. 2 reasons i suspect.. 1st, the weather changes.. skin toO dry therefore itch.. cos i haven been faithfully using the moisturiser.. im just tOo lazy.. oh well.. i deserved it for my laziness but cant do anything now.. cos i cant possibly apply moisturiser on the itchy skin.. can i..?
2nd, i suspect its bed bugs.. yeah.. u haven read it wrongly..
cos i have been turning on the heater to the highest temp.. which may make them active again at roOm temp.. haiz..
at first i was pretty convinced its the dry skin but later, after speaking to my neighbour.. she suspects its the bugs which she managed to convinced me later..

itching itchin' itch... 9.40pm

frilandsmuseet~d opEnAir musEum..

i think i ever mentioned that there is an openair museum within say 500m *maybe even lesser* of walking distance and there's a windmill in there.. its very nice when the lights are on..
here in dk.. some museums are free entry on wednesdays but for the past wednesdays i was having lessons and so i didnt go.. then comes the time it will be closed for winter.. so sad.. nv even been to the museum here.. so near my house.. its a shame..

but i saw the ad.. it will be open again for 2 weekends, just for christmas and it has a play for the kids.. so i 'jio-ed' my neighbour and we went together.. hehez

yah.. its really big and nice.. then i realised there is more than one windmill in the museum.. but they lOok exactly the same!

its open air.. and get to see all the 18th century houses of mainly the farmers..

met a girl from Uganda.. she's been adopted here to dk for 8 yrs.. she's 12..


sometimes i really applaud the dane's open-minds to adopt kids who has a stark constrast of skin color as them.. imagine in singapore, if a chinese were to adopt a indian kid.. i guess walking on the streets will invite lotsa curious stares..
and sometimes i also wonder how wld the kids, they themselves think..
anw, alot of couples here adopt kids cos nina says many women here cant reproduce either due to biological reasons or age problem..

managed to catch the show at one of the houses.. its in danish and i can understand abit now.. then plus from the play.. im able to make out what its all about..kekez
'santa' which they call 'nisser' is protrayed to be like the god of kitchen in the chinese customs.. cos xmas is a season of eating and eating for the danes.. its like their chinese new year.. they celebrate by fOod *not forgetting beer* fEst...

yah.. its ying's bdae today... ying, happy 21st! *though im quite sure she wont get to see this*


9.12pm lyngby-virum..

1st paper down..

just had my first paper this morning..but i didnt feel the pressure..
for the first time i was so happy after the exam, perhaps i knew i will pass..*fingers crossed*
had a long chat with stephen *from hk* and as we walked out of the building, we saw estinne and charlotte *both danish* and they said they prob retake it next sem.. i was like.. "u sure?" so i asked hows the passing rate for past sem... and they say its 50%.. but i figured that the paper was manageable.. they shaked my confidence to pass manz.. but anw, wat is over is over...no point harping on it..
and the solutions to this paper will be posted tml... shall wait and see.. haha


~3.30pm cph

dansk oraL exam

yEeeAaaYy..i passed.. im a now qualified level 1 dansk speaker now.. hehez..

well, the test tOok place just now.. my scheduled time slOt was from 17:30 to 18:00hrs...the examiner was jonas and another lady from the sprogcenter @ hellerup..
she's nice and friendly but she was late.. haha... when she came in, she said: "unskyld, jeg kommer forsinket." actually, i wana ask her, "hvor har du vaeret?"... *these are conversations we learnt in class...* but we were laughing so hard when we heard that and i forgot is it to say 'hvor har du vaeret' or 'hvor var du..?' cos there is a diff in the tenses.. but nvm..

yah, my partner was merieke, at 1st quite scared cos in class she quite 'zai' lor... anw, we met just before the test and she revealed that she will kinda fumbled alil' during actual presentation also lor.. at 1st i was quite skeptical, but later it proved to be true...

the test structure is like this.. the test is conducted in groups of 2..each of us has a partner..before the test, we wld have read 3 storybooks *in danish* and wrote a summary *which the danes call resume* and also prepare 2 themes to talk abt..we will 1st draw lots, whether to talk abt the storybook or the theme..then draw lots again to decide which bOok or theme to talk abt..this is done individually, after which, my partner will pick a pic and i will ask her qns and she answers.. and vice versa..

the themes i prepared was "to cafe" and "my family" and i was really hoping i cld get the lot to talk abt the latter.. and i did.. but i kinda cheated my way to get there..cos merieke went first.. and there was 2 papers on the table.. so she picked the obviously less crumpled one, which turns out to be theme.. she topic picks another lot, which decides which theme she's gona to talk abt, she kinda folded the paper when she toOk it.. written on the paper was 'emne2'.. so she talks abt "to cafe". when it was my turn, for the 1st paper i picked the same as merieke, so i can talk abt the topics, then i choose the one merieke didnt pick for the second time.. then i got to talk abt "my family".. yeah...

okie, after that.. we get to choose a pic.. merieke went first... and i guess luck was kinda on my side again, cos the pics were facing down, and i saw the last pic when jonas was arranging them.. its easy, so when its my turn, naturally i picked that one...but marieke didnt get the easy one.. and we kinda flopped cos when i asked her hows the weather, she cldnt understand me.. the teachers i supposed, didnt understand me as well.. *oPps, shldnt have asked that question*
we went outside to wait while the 2 discuss on our performance..and thus decide on our results.. and we met brian, laura, emanuele and andrew.

was kinda easy but still nervous, anw, i was prepared to fail cos i only took 2+hours to revise before the exam and i didnt memorise the wordlists..

we were called in, she said alot, but the only word i can recognise is 'tillykke' meaning congratulations.. so i reckoned we passed the test.. and she also commented generally, she cld understand us.. thats why she tinks its not problem passing us..

dont be tOo happy for me.. cos the passing rate is like 97%..


anw, this a gOod start.. =D
tml is the electromagnetics paper.. at 9am.. hope i wont overslp...


10.05pm.. i cph~

sending it back to singapore...

well.. had packed most of my stuff on dec1 after i return from the danish class dinner.. cos i got the cellotape and the box liao.. somemore during the dinner i drank coffee.. so kinda awake.. no mood to study also... yah lor, that was when i taped the box, drew up a list of what to sent..
initially intend to post all my stuff after the 13th.. so i can put the electromagnetics and digital comms notes & text inside.. but thot.. maybe it will be tOo heavy cos all books and papers mah.. so just decided to send those text i brought over from singapore back home.. + some clothes and my shoes...

thot of gg to the postal tomorrow or maybe friday after the electromagnetics class.. but i went to the postal today (just now) instead.. cos think tml no time...haf the danish oral exam.. yah lor~ so did it today... its ex..and heavy..

cos i used too much tape liao.. the surface very slippery.. the dimension is slightly bigger than 60x40x30cm box.. *how i noe leh.. cos i compare with the box my mum sent to me from sg the last time.. then its slightly bigger..*
and many a times, the box just slipped from my hand.. toppled.. almost tripped me.. made me lOse my balance like a clown.. but i hope no1 will rem me for it.. and worst, no1 seems to care.. luckily the postal wasnt far from the bus terminal...

got it posted back to singapore.. another hole in pocket.. its costly.. the lady at the counter was quite nice.. she asked me.. gg back to home.. i replied 'yah' with a smile.. then she went on to say its cheaper than the airport fine if i were to exceed the limit.. haha.. its 16890g... which was rounded up to 17kg.. wow.. i didnt know i was carrying the 17kg from the house to the busstop and from the bus terminal to the postal office.. i thot the parcel wld be ard 5~7kg.. haha.. its almost 2.5x my est. weight.. and of cos, that went out of my budget.. haiz...

yah, updates on the shower pump.. it cant be fixed for today.. hafta use peter n lena's bathroom which i tink she didnt like it so much but no choice.. i didnt like the idea tOo.. hafta be very careful, not to step on her toes.. haha

me n nina bought them some chocolates from Magasin..nina picked them..cos i went to the postal mah..n we split the cost...
gave them the jul gave *xmas gift*... later to find out its peter's favourite brand of chocs.. and he gave us a hug that lasted for at least 5secs... and his 胡渣刺到我的脸。。 kekez

just realised when lena talks to nina, she is always not so stern.. but to me.. its different.. cos i 比较好欺负。。？ anw, sometimes i just dont wana fight for it cos i afraid the next tenant will suffer.. or i'll bring bad impression to singaporeans' reputation.. *though we dont really have any good 名声 to start with in the first place..* haha

7.39pm copenhagen time~

so happy...

i know now its not the right time to blog but i cant help it..
toO many things happened these few days..
the shower pump malfunctions.. waiting for the repairman to come..

saw the postal person.. he had a box, i thot that was for peter.. nonetheless, i went to take the posts from the mailbox *its at my doorstep* into the house..
yah, there's a letter for me.. thot was from the bank but apparently its not, its from the SKAT again.. i was curious wat that box was.. i toOk i lOok and hey, thats for me! gOsh.. wat went thru my mind immediately was the pple who knew my address and lOoking at the handwriting.. it didnt quite fit these pple leh.. as just i was wondering who the sender was and wat is it.. i saw the content description, ah.. its the chocolates.. i know who liao..
so elated! its KA.. actually he wanted to pass me the chocs when i go over to paris during xmas, but since the plan is kinda put off, he says he will sent it to me.. and its here!
lalalala.. one thing abt leaving aboard on ya own is receiving posts *without urself knowing there will actually be post for you...* from pple u know.. its a very very nice feeling.. *salivating*

just checked my emails, recvd what angelia wrote.. haha.. she's so cute.. she wrote..
"YIPEE you still have 3 weeks 3 day(24 days)and you will be coming back!!!!!!!!!"
i can literally sensed the excitedness man... kekez.. thanks!~


11.40am from copenhagen..

pakistani dinner

yucks, i dread it.. today's sunday but still gotta go school to work on the applied mechatronics report.. if u say im lazy, i think the islandic and danish pple are even more lazier..
in the group, there is supposed to be 2 danish, 1 guy from US, and 1 islandic (IS in short)guy..
the US + IS + one danish guy is supposed to work on the mechanics but apparently only the danish guy is doing, the US guy *wanting to help* and IS *who talks only ~if u noe wat i mean*
so this danish guy, who claims he got into some depression dropped this course.. so IS says, US and him can tackle on the mechanics part, while the other danish(D) can tackle the electronics and i do the programming.. okie fine..
but again, apparently, IS is taking the role of the 'coordinator' of this proj so i see US has been doing all the drawings for the mechanics..
than IS says he will start working on the report and stuff like that.. after one week, he hasnt wrote much and suggested each of us writes on our part and he can do the mechanics part and the layout and stuff.. but he also added he can only do this after his parents return..*cos his parents is here to visit*
okie... so i prepared the layout, knowing his pattern to 'excuse himself'..
true enough, he hasnt done the layout and the mechanics part, he took it from what i passed him the other time.. so who's doing the job..? *i guess u readers are intelligent enough to tell*
then i revealed that i have the layout and my software part of the report ready..
so he says okie, shall use what i have prepared..
nvm, he says he will then work on the integration but later says his gf's parents are visiting so he cant do much as well..
no choice, i dont want my project to ruin in his hands, i say okie, i'll do his job of putting the mechanics, electronics and software part altogether..
then he says his english is bad, so he's gonna to disregard the grammer and leave it to the US guy to edit... hey, comon' dont trust me.. this is the 2nd time he says this.. i may not speak fluently and use bombastic words BUT im educated in english for all my years of study! *sku ogsaa*
okie, fine..
then comes this time, he still hasnt really do much for the report.. okie, much is said abt him..
at least the US guy does his report part *which has totally replaced wat the IS guy wrote on mechanics.. the part the IS guy took from me was later moved to the electronics part cos the danish guy simply wrote for the sake for writing..

then the danish guy, he's not done with the electronics, keep saying he has got problem here and there.. and blah blah blah.. bullshit.. but initially act like he's a pro lidat.. then many a time, he suggest we meet up to do integrate the software and electronics hardware but always comes up with stuff saying not ready, must redo blah blah blah, then comes last friday, we were supposed to meet.. i gathered that we wont be doing much so i told him i cant make it.. *in sg, i'll feel guilty if i dont turn up for a meeting but here, the pple totally hack-care, so i tell myself i dont have to feel guilty for cancelling a meeting*
okie.. so we postponed it to monday..

but the problem with the US guy is he lOoks down on chinese and i tink he tinks that i have nthg to do or that i have done nthg for the project.. hey, comon' i did the report layout + my part solely without help.. i did the code, just that i couldnt test it..
he commented last tuesday when the IS guy says he cldnt do the integration of the individual part and i took the job.."since she's doing nthg..",hey, u haven finish ya drawings, and i have finished mine, i cld have not bother abt it.. and you are saying sthg lidat.. darn you.. but okie, thats how US pple are.. no point argueing with him.. but one more time, im prepared to take him on..

then went over to farooq's container to taster his briyani, been talking abt tasting the pakistani style of briyani since the start of sem but now ending liao, then only got to taste it..
it was really nice, not that spicy cos he didnt put in alot.. *afterall, unlike him, i dont have a high tolerance for spices..*
then i have 3 plates of briyani..i was full but he scooped for me.. i didnt want to disappt him.. *cos he cOoked a big pot, i thot if we dont finish it, then its gOnna be a waste*..
after we stopped at the rice, he offered some danish breads *to 充当 desserts*.. at 1st he says they have some sweets after dinner.. i asked.. what kinda sweets.. he went on to elaborate.. and thats when i realised sweets = desserts.. again, i was hesitating, shld i correct him.. afterall, if he's a close friend whom i have known for a long time, i might, but in this case, it wasnt..in the end, i didnt... just let it be.. i didnt want to spoil the mood... i know i will if i did.. i kinda know him.. he didnt like to be wrong..
then his seniors, residence mates came in, the tOok the rice.. kinda weird.. trying to break the ice, i 1st apologised for the not-so-spicy briyani.. cos they are all from india, pakistan that area.. accustomed to eating spices..
then met farooq's senior whom i tink he may be a nice guy but gave me a snobbish feeling..
when farooq's senior knew i was from NUS, he asked what the hell m i doing here.. i shld be at MIT.. blah blah blah.. *yeah, for ya info, both NUS and NTU has an alliance with MIT in US*
i humbly joked... im not goOd enough thats y im here.. but farooq was quick to explain tat im on exchange, not masters...
anw, trying to show my 'surpise-ness', i asked.. u heard abt NUS?.. thats when he goes on to talk abt NUS being one of the top Us in asia *i know it of cos* but i was really surprised that pple know abt NUS and NTU here.. cos to me.. pple in europe dont really know where singapore is...
okie.. trying to be humble, i said, 'oh really'.. he then replied, "it seemed that i know more than u.." im actually kinda offended but i thot to give farooq some face, i just took it easy..
comon' actually no surprise if u know more than me, cos NUS is already one of the top accreditated schoOls in the world *top 10 for ECE in the world, u tink i dont know meh.. just didnt want to come across as showing off; the irony is, if i talked too much, u tink im trying to show off, if i dont, u think i dont even noe..haiz*
so y wld i be bothered to know so much abt it.. besides, i had tOo many stressful times *of cos, also happy times* in NUS..
and u mentioned, NUS/NTU so goOd, lemme ask you back *i was thinking abt this when u asked me what the hell im doing here.. but i kept it to myself* the what the hell u doing in dtu? y dont go MIT/NUS/NTU for ya masters.. yah, perhaps its free to study in dtu and dtu is ranked 4th technological uni in europe...

came home.. to find out the shower pump is not working.. shucks..

11.38pm i danmarks tid

dansk class dinner

hm.. today is considered quite a weird day.. weird as in everything doesnt seems to go as planned... haiz..
my plan:
attend the last DC class @8am
go lyngby to get the stuff for making dinner tonight..
attend last tut class for electromagnetics at 1
go polyteknisk *aka cO-op* to get the jacket

who knows.. i overslpt *yes, again.. have been wanting to wake only when i see light.. gosh.. what shld i do* til 8am.. so okie, skipped the lecture and did some revision..
thot of still going to the supermarket to buy the rice needed.. then to 31400 tut class..
oh the way out, dropped the keychain, the ornament on it broke..*opps, die lah.. what shld i do, glue it back and pretend nthg happened.. tell peter now or when i return him the keys.. shucks.. many thots flash across my mind.. will he make me pay..? die lah die lah..*
okie.. then got the stuff i want.. got the tomatoes at foetex for 15kr and went to netto to find out its only selling at 5kr.. okie, the ex ones are redder and abit bigger but who cares.. its gonna taste the same.. sianz.. shld i buy the cheaper ones and refund the ex ones.. hesitating.. aiyah.. lazy to return to foetex.. gg home..

reached home, settle down before i decided tat 10kr is worth alot.. so gg back to netto to get the 5kr tomato and refund the 15kr ones.. *shucks, not part of plan.. cos i go and do the refund, then i will be late for the tut class* y did i hesitate just now.. if i dont, then i can save on this trip..
made some sandwiches for lunch in schoOl later..
i msged fede, asking if she wld be gg.. she replied that she have no idea to go or not.. she asked me back instead.. so i thot her i thot of gg but looking at the situation now, im gg to be an hour late, so i decided not to go..

went back to netto to get the tomatoes, its the same guy at the cashier again.. will he recognise me.. *i was the last customer before he went for lunch break just now..* im so 紧张...as if i stole sthg.. i pretended to be normal.. like i have never been there earlier.. i just paid and walked off.. i didnt want to observe if he recognises me..

went to farooq's container, he wasnt there cos i was early..
waited for a while for his return after i msged him i was here.. he gave me some spices and onion and treated me kit-kat and the chocolate 'jewels' from pakistan..

went to byg.343 to get the DC notes from the class i missed this morning after visiting the databar...
after that, went to byg.101, found the pf kitchen and put all the stuff into the fridge.. after that i went to the polyteknisk to get the dtu's jacket.. its for mens so no smaller size S..the implication being i have to settle for size M..

then still got some time so went to the DTV *dtu's library* to punch holes on my notes...

off the the dansk class at byg.210 saw jonas, our teacher, he asked me where the pf kitchen was.. i gave him the directions and offered to show him there but he turned it down..
cant rem if it was raining *cos i was toO distracted.. read on to find out why* jonas 在流鼻涕。。imagine the 蜡笔小新。。。两条长长的鼻涕。。
i always have a problem.. when these kinda things happen..i dont know how to react, shld i tell the guy or shld i pretend i didnt see it.. if the former, how shld i put it so as to not embarass him.. ?

still i didnt say it, he realises it and wipe away with his hands.. thats also when he rejected my offer.. im glad he rejected it cos i wont know what to speak to him on the way there, the silence will be awkward.. somemore, thats just a question i blurted out w/o 经过大脑。。

had the danish class.. jonas said we cld end early today cos of the dinner.. *hurray*

okie.. after writing so long, i haven mentioned a word abt what i prepared.. i did 'spicy' rice which farooq taught me..
first, put some oil, then the chopped onions (x1 or 2)
put in the cubed tomatoes (x2)
then the mixed veggies
after which, add salt, pepper, chilli (spices) (x2 spoon each but can vary according to own preference)

when the rice is coOked.. mixed them together.. and ta-dah~, im ready to present..

while the fOod was nice, i think i added toO much spices, so its very hot and spicy which like me, the ang-mohs also cannot tahan.. so in the end, mine was the most leftover.. but laura offered to bring my rice home for her next days' lunch and dinner..

anw, anthony and merieke *from canada* make peanut rice..
emanuelle *from italy* made pasta *which i brought the leftover home cos its nice*
and a rice *which i cant rem the name but it was so nice that it was finished!*
anna *from aussie* made fairy bread and another bread *which i didnt really take note of the name* the fairy bread was fairly simple, those coloured rice on butter-spread bread and the other was yeast on toasted bread *it taste like 酱油 on toasted bread *or the “宝胃儿”*BOH in english*
brian *from usa~cant rem where* made sandwich med bacon *yUmmie delicious*
laura made some spinach thingy and 'ovened' it.. but it was nice.. *except that i didnt like veggies*
jonas fried some beefballs.. mostly 'chao-ta' ones but i still eat it.. cos its meat! lolx

sat down and had all the fOod + drink together.. then jonas revealed he's 29.. oh.. hm..
cleaned up the stuff and the place... while emanuale brewed some coffee which they said it was strong but i thot it was okie.. maybe i didnt know how to taste coffee.. haha
anw, we tOok a class pic before we left for home.. *so fUll*

12.10am efter dansk maden i danmark

the first cALL frOm singapore!

well.. the phone rang this afternoon when i was at the DC class.. wanted to pick up that call but the caller hang up before i cld do so... the phone rang again.. this time i promptly answered as i make my way out of the lecture hall *which they call it auditorium here at dtu*
heard a familiar language... it didnt take me long to make out who the caller was.. i took 1 second, just 1sec to recognise his voice.. well, how come i knew it was exactly a second, cos i myself was shocked at the 速度 i took to realise what was gg on..so i took notice of it..
it was just short 5mins.. but it was 5mins full of 'dont know what to say' moments... *cos i wasnt prepared*
but its fUn.. i asked y he called.. then he told me some long story abt the camp blah blah blah.. shallnt blog it here but he also asked me to greet him happy birthday.. i did it, but hey, today isnt his birthday.. but cos he will be celebrating his birthday in the jungle with mosquitoes...muahahaha... i guess thats y he's calling today..
he kept complaining, calling me is ex.. 5mins for 3plus sgd *if i hadnt heard it wrongly*.. but on my side its FREE!.. free incoming calls in denmark.. guess wat, last mth's record, i only called for 1min *i was kinda cheated to make that call* and most of the time i smsed, cos its cheaper than calling..
so pple, if you wanna call me from singapore, pls call to my denmark number, and if you need it,lemme noe, i will be most willing to tell you.. kekez
anw, the call ended abruptly, no 'bye-byes' cos the 5mins was up.. haha..credit used up i guess..
kinda like the singtel overseas calling ad we have been seeing on the tv.. haha..
really a pleasant surprise!
reached home to find another surprise.. got another package.. the envelope torned again, the postal pple gotta put it into the plastic bag and seal it again.. this time the msg was short, i somehow can sensed the disappointment from the sender.. *or maybe the sender wasnt..i dont know*

2more dansk lektion, then its the exams liao.. dont know can make it anot..i hope so..
going to have the dansk class dinner at the pf kitchen @DTU, each of us supposed to make sthg, but i have no idea what to make.. sianz.. guys, any idea what i can make and tell to pple this is a singaporean dish..? no chay guay tiao or chicken rice.. cos i dont know how to make and i also dont know where to buy the guay tiaos here.. haha =X

hOmE alOne..*hjemme alene*

peter didnt come home yest night, lena went out yest night.. nina went out this morning.. im *or rather i have been* home alone for the whole day.. cOoping inside my small lil' *aint that small actually* rOom..

sianz, just lOoked at the calender.. realise its abt 10days or so to exams.. now i know y im losing the importance of time *meaning i have no idea how long i have to..til the deadlines i have* cos i haven seen a calendar for mths.. i used to have a calendar hanging infront at my desk but i havent have one here.. no wonder..
okie, anw, was really slacky today.. didnt feel like doing anything.. feel like gg out.. but where to go, alone? sianz.. i guess this is the exams blue.. i hate it.. gotta stay home and study study.. haiz, NUS/NTUers...u all are lucky pple man.. exams coming to an end~...

wanted to start working on my matlab but now my lappie its running the virus scan.. will be very very slow.. *yah, it excuses to come here to blog* so i decided to wait till the scan is done.. which will take abt an hour or so.. ending ard 9+ *haiz, dont know why now getting longer and longer time*
meanwhile.. i will just slack ard...

no mails for me for today..
not a single one.. or at least when i check.. there is nothing..
shld i take the book i recvd frm dx on thurs and read it.. i guess not.. its not the right time to do it.. do i have to give him feedback.. i dont know.. maybe.. maybe before i leave...

i just realised 陈晓东 sang quite a few mandarin songs which the lyrics and tunes are so nice..
found myself at lin cheng's blog again.. listening to the song..*and of cos reading his blog but he hasnt been updating since the last post* so i just listened to the song.. went to qiao ping's blog via his, she hasnt update as well.. neither has hanqiang's fren nor steph... went to weilin's blog.. found her 'nono' list.. i realise mine was somehow opposite of hers.. haha..
thru steph, went to aozi's blog... came across sthg interesting he wrote: "females...dumb creatures...when will u girls understand that no guy will treat you exceptionally nice for nothing.
face it man...we guys aint nice creatures...theres got to be something going on if we're treating u gd."
why.. guys.. dont platonic friends exist..? or it just doesnt exist in a guy's dictionary..
i dont understand..

some1's back.. or at least i tink some1 is back.. cos i hear the doors opening.. who cld it be.. i guess its peter or lena, cos if its nina, she will be walking up the stairs.. *wah, i tink i really getting boliao 了lor.. * no it might be nina, cos she may have help lena to feed the cats before coming up.. yeah..its her.. she just came up the stairs.. haha..

saint or sinner.. 8.51pm~gmt+1 koebenhavn

fIRst sNow in my lifE... a mth away frOm xmAs~

today's the deadline of the last electromagnetics homework assignment..finally! phew~
didnt manage to finish calculating the H-field yest night so intended to wake really early this morning to do it.. but i have *dOnt know since when* develop the habit of snoozing my hnadphone's alarm clOck cos i simply just wana 赖床 and sometimes worst, i didnt even hear the alarm go off *happened quite afew times liao, hope it wont happened on days when i have exams*
anw, back to the point, so i overslp til 7.30+am.. then quickly 'pia' the last question.. was 9am when i finally finished the whole assignment.. packed up and prepare to go to the Skattecentre*tax authority* in Naerum cos few days ago receive some tax form.. they are funny people lor..i didnt even apply the tax card, y send me the tax form.. *in dk, u need a tax card to work*
well, no1 i noe got it except me.. so better go down there personally to find out.. the lady at the centre was nice but before i left, she handed me another set of form, telling me to return before leaving dk, so they know i have left and wont keep sending the tax thingy to me subsequently... but i thot how funny it is, when i leave, i will inform my kommune, and they will update everything i guess.. well, shall see how, if i got time then i fill in and return else.. what else? forget it!~
anw, to go there was no feat man, i had to wait 10mins in the 1degC temp with just a jacket/windbreaker and nthg else, i haven thick clothes with me cos i thot today taking bus, no need so much clothes on.. to add on, i didnt noe exactly where this place was, i had went in circles before getting to the place... walking on the streets with blowing winds at 1degC.. *shiver*
waited for another 10mins again...fot taking the bus back to lyngby.. .. shucks..
on the way, i saw some white white stuff.. i tink its snow.. but i cant confirm.. cos its so sparse.. and its only along certain stretch of the road...

lucky 300S was there already when the bus arrive at lyngby, meaning i dont have to wait.. and i cant afford to wait cos my clip is from 11am.. i have to board the bus before 12noon.. and its 11.50am already..
got to school, met up with fede and handed in the assignment... had lunch in canteen again.. with hopes pinned on seeing the cute lil' boy.. cos whenever i see him, its always in the canteen..
but today, he wasnt at the canteen.. he walked away.. strange... but anw, i saw him.. twice today, once at building 348, he was on his way to hand in his assgt with his frens while me and fede just handed in ours and is on the way out... the other, when he came out of building 348.. i was inside the canteen..
he lOoks like small... like a kid.. feel like pinching his cheeks... kekez..

today's afternoon is also the 2nd *and the last* electromagetics lab..its easier than the previous, at least in terms of understanding and the preparation sheet..
*perhaps now we are more experienced*
2.30pm.. i glanced thru the windows... gOsh... its snowing!!! its a light snow, cos the temp not low enough, it melts into water upon reaching ground, so the ground is wet instead of white...
yucks.. i cant go out and feel the snow..stucked in the stupid EMI lab examining some stupid properties of the transmission cables... but seeing it through the windows still makes me feel excited though.. i was babblering nonsense throughout the lab.. but of cos, i was serious in the discussion and doing the experiment..

sidetrack abit, i tink the lab TA is very helpful cos i always bomb him with questions, he will explain and then finally show me his standard answers.. kekez but of cos i cant just copy it right at his face, so i tOok notes of what he said and hopefully i can recall it...*but as usu, i cant*.. huda lagi clever, cos there was once, he showed us the answers and she copied the whole blk of the answers when he was answering to my qn..

back: thot i cld still see the snow later after the class.. but it gradually died off at ard 4pm.. the sky turns dark..
left the lab at 4.45pm.. its raining a lil'... its cOld... lucky i just have to wait 5mins for the bus this time..
went to foetex and netto to get my supplies for this coming week.. then dropped of at the bibliotek to 'collect' my bOok.. had reserved the english version of 'Man are from Mars, Women are from Venus'.. they say they will send me a post when i get the bOok.. recvd one from them *its in danish* so i gladly assumed that was it, the boOk's here.. but i got to the library to find out that this is just to notify me im second in line to the reservation... shucks.. wasted trip..
left the place and return to the same busstop to catch the 6.04pm bus184 but gOd noes, its late, 194 came instead... so cos of the one hour limit, i had to board the bus *reluctantly cos 194's stop is farther away from my place*

lena seems to be in gOod mood, she tOok initiatve to greet me in the kitchen... she sounded happy..
when i return to the kitchen again, found nina playing with the cats just outside the kitchen.. she told me peter and lena were out.. lena had went over to her frens hse to stay overnight.. wow.. freedOm... but better keep to the 10pm ground rule..

yeah, gg to tivoli on the 26th dec!~

@copenhagen 12.07am

老天，他是公平的。。

我们常怨：“老天爷真不公平”、"heaven's unfair!" but actually... we are all wrong abt him...
he seems fair, just that we cant understand y he did what he did.. 就好比说：if one were born handicapped, others wld say its a test for him/her.. but the one himself/herself will ask y did god even choOse him/her and not anyone else...?
yah.. we all cant understand either.. y certain things happened on us and not anyone else... but when gOod things happened on us.. did it dawn on that oneself, y it did? i guess not..

i tink life's fair.. so to speak, i mean, when u have experience upS, there surely must be times you will go thru the dOwns.. gg back to the handicap example.. im sure that he/she will be compensated in one way or another.. perhaps a more loving environment..a gifted talent *like beethoven*...
true enough, perhaps whatever compensation will never make up to the lOss.. but have we thot of thinking it the other way rOund.. if heaven's gOod to you, give u whatever gOod things... it's also fair for him to take sthg away from you.. else he wldnt be fair to others if u keep getting the good thing...

anw, another point is each of us leads a different path in life, so there's no point comparing who is better than who.. if you keep wanting to live a better life than your peers, *again, there's no wrong in doing so* but u get so into it that you lose yourself in it, then life's a sad one for you...
yes, in time to come, u may have more than your peers but dont forget, bcos heaven's fair, there will surely be one thing your peers have more than you and no matter how hard u strive for it, u can never achieve that of your peers.. thats when pple get into the vicious cycle of unhealthy competition.. so becareful.. know when and where to draw the line...

of cos, some times we cant just live life the way we want it to be.. at least dont live under the shadow of others... or in other words, follow pple blindly.. question yourself, y m i doing this.. for the gOod sake of myself or pple close to me or just simply cos others have done so...? then again, there is 2 sides to a coin, sometimes its not wrong to follow others, but the point is, even when u follow, know what u are doing and y are u fOllowing...?

okie.. y m i crapping abt all these life philosophy.. well.. this is just to remind myself; i havent got to my point yet.. just trying to illustrate the point of fairness before..

here comes the main point: i think im a sinner.. of cos 人非圣贤，孰能无过。。。但我觉得我每次都不经意的种下祸根。。 之后呢，往往都不了了之。。
back to the previous point, precisely cos of my committed sins, i tink im still waiting.. perhaps waiting is a way to atone for the sins i committed bah..

received a bOok today after the dansk class.. a bOok that will 勾起 my memories in time to cOme..

说到这，就让我想起了今天一早和 merina 在 msn 上的谈话。。从她口中，知道了下个学期将会有很多人不在NUS上课。。。
yvonne 要去德国 exchange，sally 和 christina 要去 attachment。。而我自己也知道 tianyao 和 jeffrey 要去斯德哥尔摩的 NOC 呆上一年、arpan 和 handi 也要去 canada exchange.. 我相信还有更多人会出国或去 attachment... 天啊，回到 NUS 会是怎样的阿！所有熟悉的脸孔都会突然消失。。
想想，如果当初我选择第二学期出来，那么将会是怎样的呢。。？现在，如果我回去的时候没机会和他们相会，那么我们将会有一年没机会见到对方。。天啊，再次见面的感觉会是如何呢。。？这一切的一切有太多太多的如果及问号了。。没有办法去一一找出答案 来。。有些甚至没有答案。。我们只能拭目以待。。

还没考试，但我怎么已经觉得回家的日子已近在指此了。。
怎么说呢。。我开始有点慌了。。不知所措。。
我拍我会不知不觉的想起家来。。这是我就不想要它发生的。。但并不代表我不想回家。。。
然而我也不讨厌这里的生活及生活方式但我也不向往留在这。。我想可能最舍不得的是 the kind of independence, freedom and the experience..
so its like i can go home *its not that i cant wait to* but i wld also want the independence and freedom... but i know its not possible to achieve that..
shall see how when i return bah... afterall, the 社会环境不一样 so cannot 做比较。。

说到家。。最纳闷的是。。会有人常常问我，‘想家了没？、有想吃的没？’
seriously, all these questions didnt come to my mind.. meaning i didnt even think of it.. lest to say miss it... *but yes, i do tink of pple/ my life back home but not to the extend of missing it so badly..if you know what i mean*
and its not too good a feeling to be missing sthg *esp back from home* if you are outside alone...
anw, when one or 2 asks, its still okie.. but when almost everyone starts bombing u questions like these, then it will 不知觉的 remind you of it lor.. 本来没去想就没事，但现在却被提醒了。。虽然还没有想家但因为这样无意的提醒，我有点怕。。怕我会。。
anw, there's one thing i dont understand lor... so what's the pt of you asking those qns.. i mean.. if i answered 'yes'..so? does it help to ask this..? no lor, it makes it even worst..
if i answered 'no'.. so?
so if you are asking for the sake of asking.. pls, next time dont ask..
& if you are genuinely concern.. den i tink there are more better questions to ask than this, or ask this when i return.. alternatively, u can just ask.. 'how are you doing..?' i mean if i really miss anything and wants to share it with you, i wld gladly do so...

anw, after writing so much crap.. *thanks for staying with me if you are still reading now* i realised how my entry for today has develop from macro of life in general to microscopic of my life.. and its makes total no sense to the heading and also y m i writing all these.. i dont know... just thot of penning *okie.. shld be blOgging* them down so that when i read thru all these one day, i can actually read what is going on on my mind right here right now at this moment..11.19pm

to end with it.. life is like a progressive *maybe regressive* wave, it changes with time and spatial coordinates.. *oPps, guess i had tOo much of electromagnetism stuff* and perhaps a random signal.. you cant exactly reproduce or predict the original signal in anyway... there bound to be errors in doing so...and even stochastic signals are so complicated..just like life.. simple yet complicated... *sOrrie, had tOo much signals..see how stress im.. siAnz*

p/s: can anyone tell me the song 'you're beautiful' by james blunt, in singapore, did you hear it as "she could see from my face that i was 'flying high'" or.. im curious to know which version sg is broadcasting...
tak for det!~

sEarcHed but in vAin...

just not my day today..
wanted to go to the talk for the DC class.. but ended up talking to the one and only m'sian student at DTU.. feels gOod to can speak singlish but still, there are afterall some restrictions...
well.. dont why y.. i have nthg against m'sians but he thinks we singaporeans lOok down on them and when he speaks.. he will use，“你们，我们”..hm.. not very pleased to hear this.. so i said, 你不要‘你们，我们’，cos i nv 瞧不起你们咯。。。 haiz

nina made some soup and gave some to me.. its nice.. *of her and of cos, the soup as well* its meatball with toufu soup.. yummie..
had alil chat with here along our hallway... she bought a motorola V3 for 1DKK only..
had dinner...

wanted to change my clothes.. and realised one of my earring is gOne.. shucks.. i search everywhere but in vain..
went out of the house, to the garage, where i parked my bike to see if i can spot it with my 'meeny weeny' bicycle front light.. but nope.. not on the street into our house as well.. damn it.. have i dropped it in 210's toilet.. *building in dtu where i have my dansk class* or on my way home.. or in the house.. i search my rOom but to no avail.. damn it!~ humph..

thats one of my fav.. *okie.. every pair of earring i buy is my fav else i wont buy them* and i doubt i can get it in singapore anymore.. *sku også*

im hoping for miracle to recover it but i noe chances are slim.. i noe i shldnt even hope it will happen cos it just wont.. nina says maybe 挡了一灾。。。i crossed my fingers... =X

will miracle happen..? 10.17pm in CPH~ =Z

wArm again!

peter didnt go to work on friday cos he was sick.. had sore throat and cough, sthg which was common to pple here when the weather changes..
so he got the man from the pharmacy to deliver the cough syrup and strepsils back home.. of cos he paid for the taxi fare as well.. but isnt it wonderful.. to have pple deliver all these when u dont feel like stepping out to face the cold weather..
but i guess this isnt gg to work in singapore cos in the HDB neighbourhood we live in, there is always shops.. its so near and convenient..
and also the accessibility of 24hr convenience stores.. *which reminded me that i only saw 2 7-11 in the whole of Copenhagen city..pathetic..*
anw, y m i telling that peter fell sick, the point is that, i got the chance to speak to him in the morning again regarding my heater problem..
then i realised that the heaters in the house in not functioning well and he revealed that thats prob y he got sick... he said expect his fren to come by either on friday or today to tweak the radiators in the basement..
and yEs, it was fixed today..

peter is better than yest when i spoke to him..
anw, me and nina went out to lyngby today and he caught us in the hallway when we return, just to inform that the heaters shld be functioning now.. and he joked abt how he sounded yest.. as if he has been drinking for the past 2 weeks... haha =)

stepped into the rOom.. i cld almost feel the heat as if i was standing rite next to the heater! wow, my heater is working well again!~

anw, went to lyngby and got a cardboard.. cos i cldnt find a suitable luggage box so im thinking of sending some of my stuff home and the ones at the post office is too small.. nina said i cld buy one elsewhere and post it out.. yupz... bought one but with holes.. so gotta seal it really tight..

planning to post it after my digital comm paper so i can send most of my textbOoks home.. well.. thats a plan.. i have no idea how much things im gg to send home.. =|
no idea how to start packing.. really hate to do all these... sianz

wanted to get down to work when cyn 'webcam-ed' me and we chatted for quite some time.. its a nice chat though..

7.21pm cOpenhAgen tiMe.. +7hrs to sg time...

icey cOLdddd...

kaoz, its frost... frost on my bike's seat..

its cOld... expected minus2degC tonight but higher temp the fOllowing days..

just realised a potential outbreak of pimple on my chin..
i noticed my hands and face condition is getting worser and worser *yayah..for political correctness.. it shld be getting from bad to worst..worser and worser just isnt rite.. but i like it..sounds better..haha*.. have aged so much.. gOsh..
im not exaggerating.. didnt know or have the habit of using moisturiser in singapore.. then come here also ignorant.. when i realised the need.. abit late.. but still, late better than never.. stiLL lazy.. didnt fOllow the moisturising regime clOsely... and afterall, mine is a simple one.. face, hands and body... unlike others.. mask, specific moisturising lotion for different purposes.. blah blah blah.. and the list goes on..

anw, cleared the sent folder in one of my mailboxes just yesterday.. realised since 30Aug..i have sent abt 100plus personalised emails.. wow! this is where all my time have gOne to.. blogging, composing and lazing around..

i shldnt even be doing this now but.. im tOo drained to do my work now...
going for a shower and perhaps another bolognese... kekez =D

9.11pm dk ur...

kAoz.. i miSsed the mUch awaitEd sNow..

heard from federica saying it will snow on wednesday.. went to the DMI site *danmark weather forecast station webbie* to confirm it.. yes it will sNow..

was waiting for it to snow in the day.. gOd knows.. it didnt snow in the dAy... it snOwed last night.. this morning i came to sChool to spot some melted snOw *ice, that is* on the rOof of some of the cars...

1st snow in danmark this year.. but i missed it..
tonight, the forecast says its lOwest temp is -1degC and the heater in my rOom is not working.. im freezing and shivering... *okie, maybe not so exaggerating... but still... aRrrgGhhhh* =Z


shivering @9.42pm kOpenhAmn*in swedish* time

a Day & a NiGht iN mAlmOe...

cAught a train onto malmoe on friday night with my neighbour. nina...

wanted to go to the Torup Manor *aka Bokskogen* but its only opened 5days a year.. and its located in the suburb.. meaning it is quite inaccessible during this time of the year.
the lady at the tourist info suggested it wld be gd to go there and sightsee but we dropped the idea cos no direct bus and we gotta walk afew km before getting there.. probably sthg i will do on my own but i know nina wldnt want to waste that time..
went shOpping on the main shopping streets, namely the Stortoget, Lilla Torg and Gustav Adolfs... while on our way to St Petri Church..

was taking pics outside the church when a nice lady walked past and offered to help us take a pic.. wow.. she's wonderfuL!
anw, brought a postcard in the church.. for 5dkk.. thats kinda ex.. cos it cost 5sek *swedish kroners/krones* and the exchange rate is like 1sek=0.8dkk but cos i have no sek currency so usu pple do a one to one exchange in malmoe when u use dkk..
but the lady at the counter was nice.. she gave me and nina a key chain *which they were selling at 10sek* for free..
just realised one funny thing.. europeans only know the japanese and kina pple...cos twice *once in germany and now here* she 1st asked me if im from japan.. i said no.. and she asked if im from kina.. "nej, jeg kommer fra singapore" was my reply.. bought the postcard after much consideration and selection and under intense pressure of nina to make a quick selection cos time is running out.. then she gave us the keychains.. thats really sweet of her.. *probably to make up for the exchange rate for the difference in currency but i doubt so..* anw, i thot to myself, if i hadnt bought the postcards i guess she also wont give bah...*cos she had no reason/excuse to do so*

then to the Stadsbiblioteket ~ the City Library... the library was a build-on from the old library.. so u on the left is the older version, and on the right is the newer building with glass windows... *refer to the pic*


went to Malmoehus castle instead.. there just wasnt enough time to see carefully everything... we had to hurry to another marine cum planes musuem ~ Tekniska o Sjoefarts Museet before it closes at 4pm..
the latter exhibits plane parts.. vehicles, marines...

tOo tired to walk to the tUrning tOrso.. tOok a pic with it as backgrd but i tink tOo dArk liao.. maybe isnt that clear..
anw, its scandinavia *perhaps europe's* tallest and most unique apartment building..
its 90degs turning..

thE fiREman in my class...

well.. had a really really long day.. napped for only 2hrs for the past 24hrs..
was exploring matlab yest night til half past 4 this morning then did some danish reading..*gotta read 3 simple danish storybooks as part of the examination criteria..*
was 6am when i was done with the reading and decided to slp til ard 8 then wake up to go to schoOl..*so i'll be like later for half an hour*
things went well as planned... but still alil' late for the 2nd break...

its the electromagnetics class today... halfway thru the class, some device rung... well.. everyone thot it was some1's handphone but the person didnt turn it off.. subsequently, *just as most of the pple in the class was disturbed* some1 jumped out of his seat, hugging all his belongings... then came the realisation, it was the fireman's alarm...

interestingly, there is a part-time fireman in the class.. so he gotta rush off whenever the alarm goes off...
more interestingly, the lecturer asked.. oPps.. is there a fire nearby... kekez
funny thing is, i dont expect his return *cos he'll be busy putting out the fire* but when the lecture ended *which was 45mins later* he came back.. *confused*

but who cares... anw, this fireman also quite charming in his way... to be frank, i tink some of the danes are quite charming in their own way.. they may not be gOod-looking but you just 忍不住想多偷瞄他们几眼... *oPps, dreaming in class again...but i considered it quite gOod cos having only 2hrs of slp earlier and i didnt fall aslp in class*

oh.. did i talked abt the surprise i got yest..?
on monday, i brought the sweets that was sent to me to school and treated federica, the italian girl i mentioned yest.. then yest, she bought me HALLS sweets, and she gave me the whole packet.. i was like.. so touchEd!~

went for the danish class today and fewer and fewer pple are coming to class...
kwasi had to join another class cos he cldnt catch up with us..
jonas approached yuqi on monday regarding her progress, then today she decided to drop the course and continue next semester...
and i tink ercument *the person who sat next to me at the very first lesson* has dropped the course since we shifted venue from building 101 to 210 *or you can say, after the autumn break*
evan hasnt come for the past 2 lessons...
paris is on and off... *yea, just in case you are doubting, paris is the name of my danish classmate and i tink he's from greece/italy..cant rem*

thats all for today~10.38pm koebenhavn ur

lOndOn..itaLy or dEnmArk..?

met up with federica just now after the DSP class to discuss the hw assgt4 for the electromagnetics..
then an idea came to me... y not go italy??? so i asked her if she is returning home during xmas and the answer was positive..
but again, she told me the chances of italy snowing this yr is low cos the weather *shld be end summer approaching autumn that kind of weather now* is still like mid summer..
she said putting up in her hse is no problem but again, i was thinkin she needs to be with her frens and family as well.. if i go, she cant bring me around and also, she mentioned there was nthg much in the town where she lived..

conclusion: italy no more.. back to square one... thot of asking ken where he gg cos the other time he said he's planning for the holies.. then again, much as i wanted to ask, i reckon that he's exams will end earlier than mine and that he will be travelling for a much long time since he has no time constraint..

came home.. met my neighbour in the kitchen then we chatted.. i told her im not gg to paris neither is rachel coming.. so she suggested maybe spending the xmas at her previous landlord's place and it will be gOod to spend a trUly danish way of xmas.. *she says its a pity if i dont get to experience traditional danish xmas celebration since travelling can be anytime* and i thot, y not? saves money *hopefully, fingers crossed* and it will truly be an experience..*elated* but all this can only be confirmed when she visits them on the 19th dec.. *cos she will still hafta ask them 1st*~*half worried*

thot of doing the same thing i did for my germany trip, just buy the travel tixs to london and bOok accomodation 1st.. the rest just 走一步看一步 but budget wise.. im not allowed to do so... so meanwhile.. i just leave it at that.. cos i also quite sianz to plan.. tink shld start revision.. not much time left liao...

*sighz*

oh yah, me and my neighbour also talked abt gg to tivoli before xmas.. missed gg to it before it closed in october.. but it will be opened for a few days till/before xmas *some places in europe is opened only for a certain season/time in the seasion..e.g. legoland,dk is closed from oct till next year.. some musuems are closed after october*

yupz, not tOo bad either.. can go tivoli and *hopefully* spend a traditional danish family way of xmas celebration and eat traditional danish fOod..

i hope for a white xmas also... please pray for me bah...

fingers crOssEd...9.24pm cph time...

pAris nO mOre..EiffeL no morE...

'met up' just now..
was told that rachel isnt joining me in cph or to paris.. cos of a few reasons... 1st being the availability of cheaper airtixs, 2nd, the available airtixs' flight time is simply tOo lOng plus long transit hours.. and paris is full of pickpockets and to travel during a tourist season wld meant more of them is active...therefore not safe..
lastly and most imptly, its not safe cos of the stupid riots in france... i had no idea of it til she told me.. *i was told* the straits time reported possible spread to paris, belgium and southern germany...
then i ask KA, he told me it havent spread to paris as yet so i was thinking of gg alone *when she told me she decided not to go cos i can bunk into KA's hostel and save the money*
but she warned me not to go as well.. cos its simply not safe *lOoking frm the fact that it hit straits time's headlines today* and i gave my word..
further that, she told me the amt of money in the bank acct has depleted alot and is still depleting.. so she suggested i shld reconsider travelling at this time.. since anw we are gg to japan next year and travelling can be anytime...
my rationale is that since im in europe already and the airtixs is cheaper within europe... so y waste the chance...?
so we concluded that i can go anywhere but not france.. thot of gg munich but its in southern germany, not tOo gOod either.. so now southern europe, eastern europe is NO NO.. left with northern europe.. which is also a NO.. cos the further up u go, the more ex..
thot of gg to uk but where in UK 好呢？ lOndOn *cos i rem cynthia telling me she's gg this dec* but then again, she may have her own plans..
well.. i really dont want to waste this chance, i wana go to some place that snows and hopefully not in denmark... *but im really on tight budget this time..*

sighz~ what can i do..?

=S 1.22pm cph time...

bAd news...

well.. bad news to start with..
over the weekend, was told that rachel has difficulty findin cheap airtixs to paris or cph.. but she wld search for it.. at the same time, she suggested if she cant make it to europe, how abt me returning earlier to go japan *provided the airtixs to japan are available*.. im open to all option..
she say she will lOok things up and keep me posted.. so recvd her mail today..

she told me that she cldnt find cheap airtixs to japan *cos of the xmas season*, so we will prob go next yr *lOoking forward to that*
we then also explored other possibilities like going nothern europe but decided it was all tOo expensive.. cant go to east of europe cos of the bird flu...
then left with GERMANY! hurray!

well.. we decided to teleconference tml and decide how things will go..

blOgging off~cph time 12.03am

started and stucked!

haiz, has gotta program my motor, dedicated this sunday just for the much procrastinated programming cos i know im slow and bad at it..
yes, i got started yet stucked! yes.. here im blogging when i shld be more devoted but i think programming is just like doing puzzles.. when you got a mental pic of how things are..
then piece by piece link them up.. but for me, the pieces are all over.. i always got mixed up.. i need some1 to guide them into piecing them up correctly.. *i try to think of him.. think of how his mental process will be.. he's always so superb at programming.. but i failed.. miserably.. thats y im never even half as gOod as him* *~wondering who 'he' is..? sHhh.. its a secret!~*

checked my (e)mailbox today.. i've gotta mail! im never tired of reading and replying mails... *i always take a long time to compose it though..*

hope that when im half done with my programming, i can go back to the mail and read it slowly and reply it.. *but when can i even achieve the half done work?*

today's a sunday but the weather isnt that great like last sunday's.. its raining outside.. lets hope it doesnt rain tomorrow morning...

try it! it can be entertaining esp when one is bored!

just finished with my dinner.. thot of blogging again..
yucks, my hair sinks now..cos i was frying sthg *overfried*.. *shucks* shld have 'dinnered' before shower.. now, i have to live with the sinky hair til tml.. tml's gonna to be yet again a long day cos i have my danish class..

anw, listened to songs on my media player again *after quite some time cos have been listening to the radio station here*.. heard this familiar song..
当我每次听到这首歌时，我都会想起那个人。。然后感叹。。 但今天，当我再次听到的时候，不知道为什么，我不再感叹了。。 =D

time flies...

wow.. time flies..
while i was cycling to schOol amidst the heaving drizzling this morning, it dawned on me that today's the 3rd of nov and i have got only less than 2mths left.. i wished i had more time here but it doesnt matter cos i know im gg to live it once, live it gOod!
i njoy the sun and have learnt to njoy it when there's no sun *its glOomy when there's no sun*, its only the start and its gOnna to end sOon *for me* but it doesnt really matter how much time im left with now, im just glad it started cos getting started is better than dreading it all the time, then it makes this trip wasteful...

i can say i haven been doing much, just the usual routine of going to schoOl, supermarket, shopPing, cOoking, cycling, emailing, blah blah blah *and the list goes on...* but not many pple really take time to njoy what they are going thru.
i mean most of the time *at least that was me when i was in singapore*, daily routines became so used to that we forgot to njoy it anymore~
how to put it... though there are times i dread having to do cooking/preparing my own lunchie for the next day, but i still njoy the process when going thru it...
and on the thot that i wld not do it in singapore, it makes me even want to cherish these moments...

anw, justa talk abt what happened on tuesday.. i rcvd another package *or rather postage* again its really farnie!
but i do appreciate and i know its well-intent!
im not sure if the sender has my bloggie add *or even visits my blog* but just in case if the person does, 我只想说：“此 snoopy 非彼 snoopy 耶。。。” and though im at lost with the programming of my motor *anyone can help?*, im not unhappy so i dont need a happy meal right now...

*now im curious, who reads my blOg..? for im only sure of 2 person reading it...*

the truth is always ugly or was he ugly today.. haha..
i used to tink my danish tutor is a 年轻，有干劲的小伙子 and we had a few conversations with him right infront of me.. just like today, just with a lil' exceptions..
he remains cute be it standing near or far from me but today, just as he was answering to my question, i observed that he is actually not as cute as used to be.. or had i been not so observant previously, today, he seems old...
anw, i was *deliberately* late for class again today, both the class in the morning and dansk class...
i tink the morning class *digital comm* my lecturer like not very satisfied with me..
cos previously he wld enthusiastically answer my qn but today, he seems to want to 草草了事 lidat... maybe cos i was so late and its not the 1st time and i always nap in class or i simply have been tagging him with too many qns during the problem class *cos i haven been paying attention in class*
or was i over-reacting/sensitive? haha~
next, the dansk class, i was late and worst still, dreaming in class..
i tink he noticed it, cos he keeps asking me qns when im least prepared for it..
usu i wld be prepared but he dont ask me, he will ask his favourite girls *anna and eloise*... today he still asks his fav girls though...
but i tink he's abit surprised by me being able to answer the qns *with difficulty though* given that i was building castles in the air..
hm.. m i reading tOo much into things..? or maybe he didnt notice anything, i was just guilty of dreaming...

who am i?

i know i shld nt be doing these, havent been taking time to start revising my work for the past one week but yet, im still doing it.. haha

spent some time composing *and a lil' copying from elsewhere* and formatting the display over and over again to what it is being displayed on the running text on the left panel now...

hope readers that dropped by realised it and take some time to read it..
*i mean i tink it may be hard cos the new stuff was concatenated to the old stuff so perhaps pple wont notice it..*

here it goes...
***
I'm a rational person yet i tend to follow my heart sometimes...
I love listening to *real-life true* love stories, be it of good or bad ending.
And I love to meet new people, from all walks of life *I must admit it is very tiring at times*. But I don't like you if i don't, so there's no putting on of plastic faces..

The mE now:
This trip has been an eye-opening one for me and for sure, has broaden my horizon!
Being exposed to new experiences and is constantly in the search of more that will perk up my life and enrich my mind and soul..
I've learnt to move on in life; is much stronger than before and definitely not a pushover!

Don't ever speculate anything about me *esp if we just got acquainted* cos I may not act the same way under similar situations.

As for my partner of the love affairs, I'm attracted to one who has a mind of his own and possess the passion that drives him to success. It would be ideal if we can have fun and also strive together, me being proud of him and vice versa. Responsiblity and maturity are no doubt the plus points. No promises for me if you know you are not capable of realising them *cos then, I don't see any significance in them*. Tempus Omnia Relevat~

I love my wonderful family and genuine friends who are always there for me, giving me all the support I needed.

Times are tough but I'm enjoying every moment if it!
I'm back to the self-confident, happy-go-lucky girl. Only much stronger! =B

**Sometimes I just wish that pple can be more honest with themselves. One needs 10 more lies just to cover that one stupid lie. Isn't that unworthy?**

bEautifUl sUndAy marks the end of DST!

its been a week since i return from Germany..
rather smooth week for me, manage to finish my homework assgt on time and get alil' headstart for my revision.. but for the stepper motor program.. im still procrastinating.. *shucks, i havent started...*
its an irony.. when you program in asm, u tink C, & when you do C, you tink C++ is better.. and when you think C++, u feel that asm is simpler.. haha.. irony of life..

i tink im always reckless.. nv think/comsider properly before saying yes to anything.. later to regret my actions..
a classic example... my host *or landlord* is contesting for city councillor and he needs help in distributing some advertising stuff to every household.. so when he approached me, i agreed without even asking how many houses i have to distribute these to and do i have time for it.. later then i rem that i still have tonnes of piling work to do.. haiz..
then come the best part, its not a leaflet as i naively thot, its a booklet and its 165 houses.. to put it in their mailbox... but given today's weather is not too bad.. its okie..

just came back from the supermarket with my neighbour.. today foetex is open *usu its closed on sundays* but we were early for the supermarket, its open at 11am and we were there at 10+.. so we went magasin. later she said she wanted a rest and a cup of coffee so my neighbour gave me a treat of coffee and sandwich at magasin's Cafe du Nord *magasin = a shopping mall, similar to say CK Tang but smaller in size...* cos she sort of know that i spent all my money on the germany trip.. must not splurge...

anw, today *or rather this morning's cph 3am* is the end of daylight saving time *aka DST or Summer Time* so we are back by another hour.. this makes it 7hrs behind singapore time..

and also, just realised that i have been blogging for a year..
time flies man.. gOsh.. initially i so scare my habit of blogging will be shortlived.. but seems like not tOo bad.. tahan-ed for a year...

from today onwards.. its the start of scrimp and save day.. cos im going to malmoe on the 11th.. broke once again... =C

blOgging off at 1.20pm cph time...
