Well I met one of my first friend in secondary school yesterday and she exclaimed that I didn't change much and look the same as I did when I first stepped into the school. Yah still as tomboyish and around the same height and size. Yan told me that another friend of ours has slimed down a lot and wear skirts and grow her hair long. The last time I saw her in Secondary school, she sport a more boyish cut than mine. Spoke in the heck care lingo and looked androgynous. According to yan, that friend of ours has ditched all that for a more feminine outlook... Shdn't I do something abt my outlook as well.*smile*
Hey, but then I like to look as if that I am still a student. I love the way that my brother friends thought that I am 18 and the astonish look on passerbys when my students encountered me in the street and called me cher while I am wearing t-shirts ,jeans and sneakers.
Haha But maybe it is not how I look physically that pple thought that I am young, it got to do with my engery level,it is still high compared with some of my peers. My Jap classmate claimed that I dun look like my age and more like hers (18) as I am excited over certain thing which pple of my age (she got a sample, her sis, which is my age)Wun be... In a negative node, it may means childish, but then I chose not to regard it as that. Ever the optimist.
I had read an article months ago regarding a reporter looking younger than her ages because she is always v energetic and full of vitality. So others thought that she is younger. I agreed with her as those energetic person always look younger than their peers who are not, esp in the eyes of the Strangers .
Thus to those pple out there who are always tired and feel lethargic at most time, you are piling ages to yourself and may even look older than your ages, thus be happy, laugh a lot and wear t shirt and jeans (optional), you are shedding those unwanted ages off and look even younger in 2006 than in 2005.
Simple Life = (Books + Running + Overseas Trips +Tea + Vegetarianism + Films ) x many pleasure

Is she pregnant? Is she not?
"Is she pregnant? Is she not?" Sound like something from the Tabloid. In case some of you think that I have change my job and trade in from something more exciting. You are so wrong. This kind of statement was made by my muddle brain whenever I am traveling in a public transport.
On my way to bugis to meet Garfield for another intended shopping spree, I was sitting down savoring another one of the books that taught you abt wisdom and still thoughts. I was so engrossed in it that I was jolt by a sight of a slight bulge. Hmm okie time to a good person for the day and offered the owner of the bulge the luxury of a seat in the crowded MRT. The owner politely declined and the exchange was gone unnoticed by others. I was bewildered but don't insist of her taking the seat as she may alighted soon. Then another woman sitting nearby offered her seat too and her gesture was defintately more intented than mine. The owner looked embarrassed and declined again. Hey lady, you should accept the seat as it was embarrassing for the offerer as well. At this moment, I noticed the two young girls were laughing to each others. Only then I realised that this lady did not have a bun in her oven. Durrhh
Don't blame us for thinking otherwise as she was wearing a empire cut dress that will have a ballooned effect on the midsection. Unless one is really pregnant, don't wear that as even a stick like celebrity will look as if she is pregnant. That is why there are so many false rumors that so and so actress is pregnant. Blame the Paparazzi , blame the dress for the misconception.
Have to say that to mistaken someone as pregnant is traumatizing for the owner and embarrassing for the offerer. Thus if you see someone who don't move their butts to offer seats to those " don't know is pregnant or look fat" women, pls don't judge them quickly. Still it doesn't seems right to just ignored the situtation in front of you, just offered your seat, if being declined, act as if everything is normal By not insisting the other party to accept will save both parties much faces.

Not so lonely planet=== Sungei Kampar @Perak
Bus ride
Journey was long, ard 7 hrs to Ipoh... Uncomfortable position to sleep in. Wake up to sore muscles and grumpy mood.
Food
Intercontinental food, delighted to find oatmeal here.

After rafting was a fare of sandwiches and banana... Garfield force fed me with the banana, cos she refuse to act like a monkey after the arduous rafting experience. Understandable.
Rafting itself === COLD, cool and sweat dripping
Rapid was high, level 3 - 4. Scary cats dun try, else dun blame if fall into the river.Need to be extra lucky if not to be thrown out of the raft. Suffocating when in the muddy water. If your horoscope claimed that you are unlikely tat day, u may float for 10 min or so,. Exhilarating if dun fall out of the raft... much better than wild wild wet. Need to get a really steady guide. Dun chose someone who is small in size. Dun stick with a whole gal gang, go into a group with at least two guys.
Journey Back=== Just snore
Too tired, just eat, sleep, pee, drink H2O, sleep, pee and sleep. Dun attempt to do anything else, or risked assault by angry rafter.

Not so lonely planet === Bangkok
Lonely planet has their version of bangkok, here is my not so lonely planet version, a short and bias version of my 3 day acct.
Wat... something
Lots of wat here, temples are in abundance. Some of the temples need entrance fee and cheapo tourist shd just find another one which dun require any... as they all serve the same function;praying
Cabaret shows... No one told me the performer there is like 金喜善
The performance was held at a cinema like theatre, look quite high class. Performance was like song and dance and the main lead will go down the stage and bat their beautiful eye lashes at us. Some "fortunate" souls will get some special treatment from them. Unlike my initial mental opinions, the show is not distastful and some of the performer there are real beautiful. The most beautiful ones are what I called the queen bee. There are one queen bee and another queen bee in waiting.
The queen bee is ravishing and look like 金喜善. The queen bee in waiting look like cecellia chong. Wah... pls bring tissue, if u have a tendency to drool.
Shopping haven or is it...
Due to the currency exchange, things may look cheaper than it actually is. Pls bring ur calculator or study ur maths so as to get the exchange rate at ur finger tips to get a really gd deal. Note: bargain is allowed, but then not more than 20% off leh, was quite disappointed with the fact that I can't bargain more. MBK is a best shopping centre and some nite bazzars are not cheap. Durian chips are sold for ard 120baht at the nite bazzar, where got cheap? If want cheap Jap vivi inspired fashion wear, pls try siam square.
Traffic congestions=== speeding vehicles?
Traffic is indeed as bad as described. Fumes from vehicles are enuf to choke u and give u bad complexion. If you look down from the sky, u can see lots of cars and lots of highway. Yet amazing, the Thais are good driver, when there is a nook or gap, they can drive faster... unlike lion city weekend at Orchard, totally unmoveable... Traffic rules are less stringent. They make the U turns anywhere anyhow... But then they will nv honk at you, not even when u decide to play balls on the street and u rushed across to pick them up... The street is absolutely horn free and curse free. Tourguide ask u to take a taxi with meter, U hopped on to one, think it is metered, as it has a big sign on top, but sorrie, it is not... Tho nv as u will eventually get a better deal than the one that is metered.
Look, it is a tuna, no it is a dolphins , no, it is just an aeroplane
Pls take a look when the plane reach a big surface of water where u can still view the surrounding. All of the sudden,you can see a dolphin swimming underneath ur plane until after a while,you will realised in disappointment that it is actually your own plane. It is still impossible to spot dolphin in south east Asia, unfortuntely.Oh Yah, minus the pink dolphin in our sunny island that's it.
Upgrading of class, do I look Bizness to you
Pick a peak period to go, the plane tics are overbooked, it will be a chance for you to upgrade to business class.No need to look smart or well dressed, clad in tshirt oso can. Just go in pairs, no gp booking, if u want to upgrade. Seats are wider, you are provided with freshly squeezed juice when u enter and have u have so much leg room in comparision with the economy class. U get 3 course meal served to u individually and they address you by Mr/miss(surname). SHoirk ah

「世界の中心で、愛をさけぶ」をみたので、本当の愛は死にた末に、永遠心がいる。
Watched 「世界の中心で、愛をさけぶ」yesterday.
Actually had ask ying to watch wif me when it was shown in the local cinema, but too bad we miss it.
So here is how the story goes...
In 1986
A normal high school guy saku meet a popular gal aki and was impressed by her eloquence and her mannerism. But he just admired her from afar as he did not think that he was gd enuf for her. Still aki take initiative and hitch a ride from saku to talk to him. The story start from there and centralised on a Sony walkman, midnight dedications and recording from both leads. Aki contracted Leukemia but managed to maintain her daily conversation with saku via the Cassette tape delivered by a little gal. She maintained her sunshine smile in front of others but reveal her fear of death in the tape.Saku tried all he can to fufill aki dreams but he only managed to do so in 2004. Throughout this period, he was torment by his memories of aki. Aki die on the night when typhoon 29 hit kyushu, and 18 years later Saku went back to his hometown to immersed with memories of aki and he was met with typhoon 29 again. All the memories came rushing back and it is heart wrenching to watch his expression which remsemble those dormant volcanoe that erupt after years of calmness. Although he has a fiancé, ritsuko, he was too tied up by the ghost of his past to love her completely and he felt guilty over it. Ritsuko went missing one day and turn up at his hometown to tell him that she was very sorry that she failed to deliver the last tape of aki to him. Turned up that ritsuko was the little gal that helped them last time. As fate had it, saku decided to fufill the last wish of aki with ritsuko and tied up the loose end...
The main soundtrack is by Ken Hirai : 瞳をとじて
This show left me pondering, even when one true love die after a long time, will the love continue to reside inside our heart? Or perhaps first love is being make beautiful only when one party die. Will one be remembered forever only when s/he die. Most of us went through firstlove awkwardly and may even be surprised by our choice when we grow up. Yet if one first love was not around anymore, it become the LOVE of one life forever etched in one heart.

[瞳をとじて]
朝目覚める度に 君の抜け殻が 横に い る
ぬくもりを感じた いつもの背中が 冷たい
苦笑いをやめて 重いカーテンを 開けよ う
眩しすぎる朝日 僕と毎日の 追いかけっこだ
あの日 見せた泣き顔
な みだ照らす夕陽 肩のぬくもり
消し去ろうと願 う度に
心 が体が 君を覚えている
Your love forever
Your love forever
瞳をとじて 君を描くよ
それだけで いい
たとえ季節が 僕の 心を 置き去りにしても
いつかは君のこと なにも感じなく なるのか な
今の痛み抱いて 眠る方がまだ いいかな
あの日 見てた星空
願 いか けて 二人探した光は
瞬く間に消えてくのに
心 は 体は 君で輝いてる
I wish forever
I wish forever
瞳をとじて 君を描くよ
それしか出 来ない
たとえ世界が 僕を 残して 過ぎ去ろうとしても
Your love forever
Your love forever
瞳をとじて 君を描くよ
それだけで いい
たとえ季節が 僕を 残して 色を変えようとも
記憶の中に 君を探すよ
それだけで いい
なくしたものを 越える 強さを
君がくれたから
君がくれたから

Meow Meow 's wedding
His wedding was held on two days. On the 3rd, was the Church Ceremony. On the 4th, was the wedding dinner.
03/12/05===In the Church
We was late when we reach Toa Payoh MRT. Yue, P and C was alreadi there with their respective halves. Actually, I dun noe the way to the church and there are too churches in Toa Payoh and I hoped that I wun get into the wrong one like last time... No prob this time as C led the way. MEow was at the entrance and was greeting us in his usual meaning slightly stressed manner. Hey Mr, I thot this was suppose to be ur big day, SMILE SMILE. Still he din heed our advice. Maybe he was of afraid that his big day will go awry. No worries lah, this man is so meticulous at all times that he must have covered all aspects.
The wedding march proceeded and his bride was resonating with radiance. More so than the last time I saw her during the bbq. From a distance, we could see that Meow was twitching, K thot tat he was abt to cry. Yah I thot so too as he was such a gentle guy n this was DDAy for him.
We sat through the vows and the prayers. It was longer than the Christian one that I have attended before. And the page boy and little bridemaid were ahh so cute... Hmmm
04/12/05=== Wedding @ Rendezvous
This is the hotel that I passed by without fail every Friday as it was beside AOBA Jap school. Went inside numerous time for the coffee club. Have to say that the Vegetarian food that they catered are of certain standard. Raving review. So pple out there who was planning on wedding, pls take this hotel into consideration as it provide gd vege food and splendid Pinot noir.
The dinner was followed as usual, the couple marched in before the dinner started. But then something was different on this nite. Normally, when the wedding couple marched in,they are accompanied by the music and strained smile on their face. (from smiling so much that look almost stiffed .)Yes, we had that too, but this time round, the music was accompanied by our friend singing
Yes you are to me, Ohh you are my fantasy...Apology for forgetting the name of the song. Someone pls tell me. Is it ALWAYS ? Never noe our friend here is so ROMANTic. Haha, I nudged Yun and hint that this was a gd idea for hers as she love to sing so much. And his door gift was a v nice cartoonish wedding couple key chain. he got two different design as well and ah Kim was trying to snatch mine in exchange, which I refused vehemently.
I think the best part of the dinner was the teasing of the couple, some tables were armed with Ammunition such as fresh egg lah, mini M&Ms... Some of those tease were a tad too much that I squirmed uncomfortably in my seat.
Our table was quite merciful in comparison with others. We just asked them to shell the prawn without the use of their hands. They combined and co-operate v well, thus shelling in record time... haha Good for them.
By then, I havelearnt a few tricks from this dinner, so to all those pple out there, I have enuf idea to make ur wedding fun. Haha, dun worry, nothing extreme to make u scream.

JLPT はむつかしい
Okie after that long reminder from vee gal via my tagboard and msn... I have to put up an entry and fast...Vee gal was not subtle regarding her request anymore. wah
Initally,I want to lump events together so as to make up one lengthy entries, but I think it will be too taxing on me and my fellow friends, thus here it goes... MY JLPT
I woke up with a jolt, it drawn on me that it is DDay... The much anticipated JLPT. Better pass, else have to wait for next year to redo this level and I wun want that as it will mean I wun be able to join the Standard Chartered M next year. Duhhhhh As I was the onli one taking this level exam, there was no one to share my anxiety with... Duh, my classmates all take level 4 which was in the afternoon and hoshi was taking the horrendous level 1 which was also held in the afternoon. Hmm actually, I wld prefer mine to be in the afternoon as my mind was still in a turmoil after a long night of muggling. Vee galz probably felt the same way at the same time as she was taking her CFA on the 4th...
Better examined the test voucher and check my Candidate number, then off I went to take 168 to Tampinese. According to the information sent to us, we were suppose to take the mrt to the tanah merah and then took bus 2 to the Jap school... Duhhh, I thot I wld take bus to Tampinese then made a universal handsign to take the transport that start with 240...
I was in luck, 240 came fast,I managed to arrive 30min early. I was so happy in not taking bus 2 thus no need to jostle with the crowd like before. haha Good start, means gd day... My joy was short-lived, nanosecond in fact, due to a sudden onslaught of the crowd, my own anxiety and the unknown step, I tripped and my left ankle felt a sudden twist... OMG I felt tears welling up, could I make it to the classrm, I was hopping one leggedly into the gates. Surprisingly , I could put my foot down after a while, altho it was still in pain, it was not so excruciating now... PHew, false alarm, I tot I have sprained my ankle and wun make it for Meow Meow wedding later, which was a NO NO as he wld definately nag me to like forever.
Armed with preparation this time, I had my socks on, my sweater in hand to prevent me from freezing my butts off. I remember that the last time I was there, my feet was naked and after a while , I was so cold that I couldn't concentrate on my qns. It still leave me wondering, why do they want the aircon to be so strong in a Jap Primary school, wun the kids be freezing, Prehaps they are trying to imitate the cold winter in Japan now. Then wat, turn up the heater in June to match the scorching temperature back home...hmmm
The first two papers were easy and they were suppose to be my weaker area... Haha I cld do it, no prob at all. It was the first time tat I had so much confidence in my listening compre... Then came the third paper, the grammer. OMG, my mind was blank, the grammer that I had crampped for a few weeks seemed to dissolve without a trace...No choice but to play the guessing game again.
Thus, I learnt a lesson that day, dun be so happy before the end, things changes and it will be different from wat u have expected earlier... Think I have to forgo my Marathon next yr. *WAIL*

Duhhh, I thot I wld take bus to Tampinese then made a universal handsign to take the transport that start with 240...
I was in luck, 240 came fast,I managed to arrive 30min early. I was so happy in not taking bus 2 thus no need to jostle with the crowd like before. haha Good start, means gd day... My joy was short-lived, nanosecond in fact, due to a sudden onslaught of the crowd, my own anxiety and the unknown step, I tripped and my left ankle felt a sudden twist... OMG I felt tears welling up, could I make it to the classrm, I was hopping one leggedly into the gates. Surprisingly , I could put my foot down after a while, altho it was still in pain, it was not so excruciating now... PHew, false alarm, I tot I have sprained my ankle and wun make it for Meow Meow wedding later, which was a NO NO as he wld definately nag me to like forever.
Armed with preparation this time, I had my socks on, my sweater in hand to prevent me from freezing my butts off. I remember that the last time I was there, my feet was naked and after a while , I was so cold that I couldn't concentrate on my qns. It still leave me wondering, why do they want the aircon to be so strong in a Jap Primary school, wun the kids be freezing, Prehaps they are trying to imitate the cold winter in Japan now. Then wat, turn up the heater in June to match the scorching temperature back home...hmmm
The first two papers were easy and they were suppose to be my weaker area... Haha I cld do it, no prob at all. It was the first time tat I had so much confidence in my listening compre... Then came the third paper, the grammer. OMG, my mind was blank, the grammer that I had crampped for a few weeks seemed to dissolve without a trace...No choice but to play the guessing game again.
Thus, I learnt a lesson that day, dun be so happy before the end, things changes and it will be different from wat u have expected earlier... Think I have to forgo my Marathon next yr. *WAIL*

I noe I shdn't have done it, but I did...
Man I m suppose to study hard for my upcoming Jap exam ,yet I m wasting my time writing the blog... Hmm not totally wasting as I m relaxing and at the same time trying to ponder over some issue...
Most imptly, why am I writng my blog when I m suppose to read my Grammmer notes. Why m I calling my friends when I m suppose to clean my room or type my report etc ect? why do pple do things that are not appropriate at a certain time, yet keep on doing it... Hmm does the inappropiate task seems more fufilling. Well, chatting on the phone and on the Msn are imformative but once done, I will panicked regarding my supposed more important task. Like now, will I spent time panicking abt my grammer and my impending doom after I have finish my blog? But then since I m aware of the consequence, why am I doing it?
" I dun noe" is a convienent answer to my actions, but is there a another deeper meaning regarding my procrastination? " I dun noe" is a such a simple and universal explanation that we tend to misuse it in abundance... When others give u a " I dun noe" as an explantion to their reason? How will you feel? Instantly, one will think that the other party is not thinking hard enuf, maybe S/he need prompting, after that all sorts of reasons come pouring, which shocked the listener as some of the reasons are not even substantial enuf to be listed as a reason.
But in this busy city of ours, who will have time to prompt us? who will listen and have time to analyse us and our action instead of juding us and label us as incompetence whenever we make the wrong turn? Definately not our bosses, they either will put a cross on their mental scoresheet or they will holler at us.. Mere acquaintance will just shun u and tell others to be beware of you. They may even exaggerate your wrong doing to make it interesting... Thus wat can we do? Be careful of our every steps so that we will not step on the tail of the unknown? It is a better precaution than to wonder why are the rest so anal on little things that doesn't matter. Note, things that doesnt matter to you, matters to others.

Harry PotterとJLPT について
Today, I watch Harry Potter with my bro. Gd show, but then the world cup qudditach matches was not shown much... I was expecting a world class performance leh, but then too bad loh. Hmm the movie is kind of short given the length of tht book itself. Lots of other stuffs was not mentioned. Anyway, I have forgotten much details of the book and the movie just refresh my mind, hmm I m looking forward for the next Order of Phoenix and the half-blood prince, esp the half blood prince as the order is too lengthy and unneccessary...Hmm I wonder how long I need to wait...
Hmm meanwhile, I m busy with my upcoming Jap exam. Done some Listening compre just now, that is my weakest area, think tat it is v hard to pass as all the questions are v interferential, unlike our normal MT Listening compre, which require us to just give the correct ans as the rest of the options are ridiculous if u listen carefully to the passage. But the JLTP's listening is different as they normal told you all the information and you have to make out which one is the correct pic that match the passage... REAL TOUGH. The second part of the listening compre is even tougher as ypu have to listen real carefully for the pronounciation and choose the correct ans. To those who learn Jap, you all noe that the pronouciations are v similar for various words which make it super hard to decipher as the passage are being read in a normal manner. ( super fast as they blah blah all the way, like how u see Jap toking on the street), Our MT 's passge are been read in a slower than normal speed,which make it easier for us to check.
The next thing is the durations of test. For MT, it is ard 20 min for the passage and rest of the time are repeats. Jap listening has no repeats and it is 40min... Hmm imagine 40 min of listening to Fast talking Jap in riddles is v V tiring da yo ne. After a while I simply wun be able to concentrate anymore (pre level exam.
Thus gd luck to me if I mange to scrap though this time... ( Hmm If can't make it, will try again next yr loh}

Aspirations, can we meet them???
I remember that we all have aspiration when we are young...I want to be a doc, lawyers etc, but 20 years down the road, how many of us realised our Aspirations and how many of us are v far away from it.
I remember I always has tons of aspiration in my youth, namely, CID officer, Judge and ER doctor, pro Swimmer like J. Yeo and a professor in pyschology or Science. But why din I realise all these dreams? Are those dreams possible, did I try... Or is it that when we grow up, the alreadi grown adults warns us that our dreams are not easy... tHus our aspirations are not possible. Is that the reason y I give up. I have to say that most of of dream job are not easily attainable, but then I din noe wat I shd do to realise my aspirations. I have fumble all the way by myself as my parents din have to make the same kind of decision as me. But there is a saying in Chinese, when u are young, ur life is given by ur parents, but when grown, u are responsible of leading ur life... I totally believe in it.
It is till the start of my adulthood that I think that such things such as fame and money doesn't matter. Wat matters are whether we have contribute to the society? Are we making a difference in others life, do we bring JOy to others? Some pple may think tat making a difference in pple life is too altruistic and it is not within the means of normal ppple... But there are a lot of ways to contribute, by scarifying the time u have ( normally for resting ) in the weekend, u can help a lot of elderly/ cancer patients by accompany them in the weekend...
Altho it may not seems much, but when u have help those pple in way or another, u urself will have the kind of satisfying glow. That why, it is not tat sometimes we dun realise those aspirations because it is hard, sometimes because along the way, you find new things, the things that really matter other than fame and glory that those elite profession bring.
Looking back at the years, I think I m at my proudest when I realise my small aspirations ( not the big ones that I have mentioned earlier)such as by able to learn Japanese, by managing to get an A for my A level maths (failing till the prelims) ,telling my friend that she can also get the A if we work hard enuf.By joining CCF in my Uni days. Hope that I can continue to contributing to my families, friends and othes life, make a difference, that have become my aspiration.
Quotes by 静思语: A peaceful mind is a blessing. The ability to work is also a blessing. Happiness is a blessing. Broadmindness is also a blessing.

MBTI
Have gone for an MBTI workshop in the school yesterday...
Early in the morning, it look like this...
Wake up, thot tat I got a lot of time so I ate my breakfast couple with newspapers, therefore the speed was ultra slow. Normally, I wun be so diligently reading newspaper in the morning unless it is Urban or Sunday times, so yesterday, the culprit is the Urban + denise Keller in the bag pages... Wow, she is still with wolfgang despite him admitting tat he is a flirt b4 he met Denise. I will too as Wolfgang is such a gd looking chap and he brought her a Cartier. Hmm After I savour the whole papers, I realised that I was late, thus must rush like the bull in the china shop... Oh oh, where is my books, my keys, my hp... Definately a daily mad rush. Get a msg fr cheeky colleauge that "big" pple was areadi in the rm impling tat I better get to there fast else minced meat... Then he say tat lots of us were not there yet... any consolation? Hmm yah, we will all be minced meat, enuf to make chaw shiew bao.
Reach the venue
I was among the last pple... But just in time as the workshop started immediately as soon as I sat down with my purple name tag. Phew, had to take photos of the speakers... Poor lighting is the worse shooting condition but had to shoot lah, else I kana shot.
Speaker tok abt personalities blah blah blah... Aiyoh, I have done MBTI before in Sec Jc and online in the Uni... wats the diiff???
Well, I think the different is that this MBTI not just allow us to understand our personalities, it teach us how to make use of my strenght and weakness to enhance my work... Hmmm But I think the best things of this workshop is the notes of various personalties type so that I can guess accurately which personalities does my friend belong to. By now, I have 2 correct guesses... Hmm maybe my next job can be a personalities consultant... =)Will it earn me more bread than now... Hope so woh. To those who are interested to learn your personality type can start Queuing.Pls take a number tag. I may do it FOC woh...

Tree top trail... u mean again???
It is now 5.44pm on a nice finally sunny Sunday. I m suppose to be at Kallang shouting one up two up, but how come I m at home typing my entry at hm leh... The reason mah, cos my colleague din go... Hmm when does ah Lim stop going for activities when friends can't go? Thot tat she v onz one... Haiz, because today is my beloved bro birthday and we have a mini celebration at hm. If I m to go dragon boat, my whole family will have to wait till 7.30pm before they can start. Thus being a nice and thoughtful gal, I decided to forgo my training and stay at hm. ( inner me: sure or not, or are u just plain lazy??? Shrugged )but I think I have done enuf excercise for the wk for I have gone for another (yes another) walk along the tree top trail...
This is an activity orgainised by some SDU MOG...(these are acronyms, not morse code, so no need to deciper ke). After work, ,me and two of my colleauges went down to venus drive for the gathering before the walk. We alight at the wrong place initially, as it is further down the normal place that we usually alight. Heng when we finally arrived at the designated place, the walk had not start yet.
After a rounds of intro, we played a name game, and dun noe for wat reason, a lot of them call me xiangyun... Okie, I wun mind being her provided that I got the most gd looking man in his 40s.(Mr E Tan )...
We then started the walk at ard 3pm... manage to meet some like-minded friends, thus got pple to chit chat while walking up the terrain... To be honest, the trail is less tiring this time as the distance we walked is much lesser than the last time I go wif vee gal and gang. But less fun as there is no jw to entertained us + I can't be a siao cha bo when I m in a company of pple that I dun noe so well right. So vee gal, ah Li, eve and ah hui, lets do it again sometime soon hoh... this time, lets walked from mac to Bt Timah okie! Onz ah!

Friends's ROM
Wah... This a gd year for marriage... Yes, I have witness another joyous ocassion where a couple is joined in matrimony . This time round I was double up as a guest and amateur photographer... Well fortuately, I did not have meeting last Friday, else...
Due to the pouring rain, I was drenched and a bit disoriented. Fortunately the ceremony had not start. Ah sa soon arrived clad in full radiance. Wow, when does this friend of mine morphed into a grown-up woman? But as I saw her posing in her funny faces, she still resemble the same old girl whom I have met in Pri Sch. The same practical buddy who had brave through the vivas storm of Mat sci wif me... Haha she has really found her happiness and her husband is one lucky man to be with such childlike yet mature in her own way women. Altho tired, I tried my best to take good photos tho some of the photo dun turn up well enuf... Hmm really must go and sign up for courses during the Holidays liao. After the ceremony, the guests proceeded to one of the small rooms for lunch... Hmm real Hungry as I had work hard as a photographer.
Hmm trust ah sa to prepare some vegetarian food for me. Yummy!!! thot ks and I will be leave alone by her other guests as we were the only friends from uni days, but to my surpise, I found it easy to tok to her Yj councilor kakis as they were all v fun and friendly. Even managed to bitch with her friends regarding common acquaintances.*Evil* Poor ks, he seems so bored intially. But as her frens were really entertaining, he warmed up eventually... Gd Gd...

We carpool and reached there in less than 10 min time. Phew, but why was it so crowded at 4.30pm in esplanade leh?
Ah sa 's Jc mates had some brillant ideas and we manage to take some interesting shots. We even managed to ask a teenage couple to leave their smooching territory as they were occupying the best place with awesome scenery. They obliged. Haha Victory...

Hmm but I have not finished the after production work... Hmm will try to d/l all those pic into a cd for ah sa. Will try to give it to her next week for I m dead tired this wk.

Haha she has really found her happiness and her husband is one lucky man to be with such childlike yet mature in her own way women. Altho tired, I tried my best to take good photos tho some of the photo dun turn up well enuf... Hmm really must go and sign up for courses during the Holidays liao. After the ceremony, the guests proceeded to one of the small rooms for lunch... Hmm real Hungry as I had work hard as a photographer.

Yummy!!! thot ks and I will be leave alone by her other guests as we were the only friends from uni days, but to my surpise, I found it easy to tok to her Yj councilor kakis as they were all v fun and friendly. Even managed to bitch with her friends regarding common acquaintances.*Evil* Poor ks, he seems so bored intially. But as her frens were really entertaining, he warmed up eventually... Gd Gd...

Amore women day workout
Hmm gone for the amore women day workout and done 1 hour of aerobics, 1 hour of kickboxing and 1 hour of hip-hop. All of us tried to complete the workout with gusto, but after an hour I was wondering when will the thing end. I was sweating and had stepped on the feet of various pple... Ouch, I was stepped on too. Definately exhausting. The space is v cramped and I can't catch up on some of the steps... Argh My limbs are aching now due to the long duration of the workout.
Undaunted, I m thinking of trying out the standard chartered marathon next year. I can't join it this year as the date conicide with my Jap exam. Next year shd try the 10km, then the 21km followed by the full marathon by the end of 3 years... shd b okie if i start training nxt year loh... maybe shd see whether there is any runner club near wdl so that I will have motivations like vee galz... haha it is gd to venture out to new fronties every year...Thus nxt year's aspiration is to do the 10km SC marathon or maybe do a Biathlon... See how lah

Weekend fun
Last weekend is definately a work hard play hard weekend...After work, I went for tuition, thus working again. Then I went down to the chinatown to book airfare tix for my Thailand trip... Suppose to get a gd deal... Then met some of my friends to try out new dish at the nearby just Green... The place that gafield and gang go last time. This time my religion mates and I try various dishes and we ate quite a lot as we are suppose to write a reviews on the food we eat... There are salted fish tofu, dou miao fish cake and other dishes that I can't named. Anyway, I m going to the review on the "weird" fried rice. According to my friends, they thought that the rice was nice and unique, yet, I think it contain a certain smell that hardcore vegetarian will deterred from it. Pple like my bro will take one sniff and wun touch the rice, but since this is a reputable resturant, it shd be alright, thus I still touch the rice for I m too hungry to really care that much...
After dinner, D decided to seek out some books and tea at a nearby buddhist bookstore. The bookstore is v Zen. White décor wtih deep yellow lighting.But the books are kind of expansive. I bought two bks in a series that cost me ard 40 bucks...ouch, but it come with complimentary of 2 cups of drinks... We decide to come again for the drinks. I think the environment is a gd place to read and study... maybe I can go there and study for my Jap exam nxt time...
Jumping foward to Sunday after youth group activities cum leaders' meeting, I rush back home and change into sports wear for my first Dragon boat session.
As usual, due to all those rushing, I was late and my colleauge was waiting patiently in her red Honda Jazz. Nice car, v ladylike. Okie, my job is to direct her to the kallang sports centre as she doesn't noe how to go there. Stressed up as I m a terrible bad map reader and we are late. Fortuantely, we ended up in the right place wo getting lost. Phew!!!
All of them were already inside the boat except us, oh oh... we quickly grabbed a paddle and safety vest and off we go onto the boat... whee, it is fun, we have to paddle in sync with 18 pple in the boat, terrible, as we nv have down it before and some of our paddles went it faster than others thus,the boat cannot really propel fwd... Our instructor is v patient and explain that we shd use our torso and turn so that we can get the feel of the water and use the resistance between the water and paddle to propel fwd... turning of torso also help us to achieve killer abs... Wow. I turn harder and shout one up, two up with more gusto for I want to develop killer abs... After an hour or so, we coordinate better and the instructor say that we are gd for first timer. I thought so as all of us row with determination despite aching arm, back and bum.
Then our instuctor decided to spice things up and ask us to do tug of war. 8 vs 8. B and I are the first rower of our gp, meaning we must coordinate real well or we will lose. We lost the first time round as B is faster than me. Hmm with my sheer determination I catch up and for the 2nd round, we did better than the other team intially then B slipped... Oh oh, we lose our concentration and thus lost... But gd try.
In conclusion, dragon boat is really a team sport, and I really need to try harder and build up my strength if I m going to excercise more

Lipstick jungle
Bought a new book by Candace bushnell... AS usually, it is full of New York and Power puff women who sashay down the glitzy world of fashion,publishing, PR and Marketing... Meaning the ususally stuff that I admired but can't have... It is an interesting read as this is the first book that I have encountered that depicts women as a power hungry unscrupulous being that are willing to play rough... Most books depicts women as intelligent but always struggling as they always play nice. Thus I love these women as it is abt women who can have it all. To those aspiring wannabes, u are free to borrow this bk when I m done... I m currently at pg 90 of the bk and the bk is ard 400 pg... Thin as compare to Harry Potter's bk sia.
Still, I dun think I can live this kind of lifestyle. No 1: obvious reasons is that I dun have enuf reasons nor talents to raise up in my current profession. The only way to become a power puff women is to change profession and jumping into the unknown water of the corporate world. That is sure scary...meanwhile, I can live my dreams of being one of the women in the bk or S&C.
Going to work now. ciao!

はじめに着物を着た
嬉しいな。。。きょは青葉に行って、シーンガポールを住んで日本人と話すうちに食べ物を食べました。みんなさんは楽しいそうです。私たちは新しい友達に造りました。皆さんは名前とEメールを交わしました。一人女は、日本から綺麗な着物を持て行ったので私とリーシャンが着って見たい。着たの写真をとって綺麗です。ロンンさんは早い出たのは、着らないで残念でした.
そして、10人で、ゲームを参加しました。日本人も青葉の学生もありました。あのゲームはお見合いの視たい。ゲームが終わるそうから、10人は、合いた人に選らんてマーチをしました。マーチの人は mos burger のヴぉーチェをいだたきました。私たちはあのゲームが参加しないて,bingoを参加しました。リーシャンさんはmos burgerのヴぉーチェを勝って嬉しいそうです。
パーテに終わたら、紀伊国屋に歩いて行ました。私たちはJLPT復習の本を買った。その後、明治台でチョコレートを買って帰ります。
今日はとてもうれしいだよね。たぶん、こどもの日だからです。

本当に久しぶりに!!
Wow... been a while since I update my blog... Better write something else the intented audience will all run away liao woh...
I m so busy nowadays that I have slept for only "let me count" 4 hr only. Oh my god.
I wonder why I can still function. Heng my gd friends all blog, else how to catch up with their busy life... Seems like they are into banking recently... Hmm so chim, have to ask Vee galz what she means, so stoopid of me leh.
Today, fujiwara ask me whether I have friends who can teach PSLE Chinese. " Huh, I tot PSLE is in 2 wks time." Turn out that the parents want the kid to have intensive revision. This set me pondering, does this kid really need it, or it is the parents who have no faith in their child abilities?
Honestly, Fujiwara and me think that it wun make a great difference in this late stage. Somewat like terminal cancer;surely die if the kid is v v poor in Chinese. Thus the only hope is to pray for miracle. It turn out that one of my friends can teach but due to sumountable pressure, she politely declined the offer. Can't blame her, I oso wun want to earn a reputation of being a bad tutor in such situation. If the kid turn out to have gd results, will I be justified to get the credit... Maybe not.
Toting abt exams/ I think my bro is stress over his exam... His blog told me so...I ask him to work hard in his blog's comment. See 私は急がしのにおととの事をしなければ残念です。Jialat, I think blog is the only thing that kept me in touch wif my close ones... Haiz. I so 可怜。

Revelation of the quarter of a century me
How do u identify the coming of age?
In Japan, there is a ceremoney that celebrate adulthood at the age of 20. This year, my religion will also have this similar kind of ceremoney in Taiwan. Those between 18 - 22 are to go there wif their family and celebrate the adulthood of the children. Parents are suppose to give a gift to their "adult" kid and the kid has to kowtow to their parents...
Altho these are the rituals, does anyone grow up that quickly, like poof. 18, we are grown physically but not grown in anywhere else. When I was 18, everything was rosy. I expect myself to go to Uni, find a gd course, study, get gd prospects, find my soulmate... Honestly, when u are young, everything seems so attainable...
Then u graduate, reality start to sunk in. I m one of the unlucky many to graduate in a year of bad economy aggravate by SARS. The job market was gloomy... I m scared, so scared that I decided to jump into the first job that was been offered. I never go and look around and analysed what job suited me. I m just scared that I will have no job, no income and incessant nagging from parents that I din try hard enuf or I m too choosy ... The job turn up fine despite my complains and stuff.And Yes! still no appearance of my significant other half. If I go by my own yardstick set when I was 18, I m a failure.
18 years olds, what do they know? How can u force them to be adults when they haven't seen the real world yet...
Last Sun, a group of my buddies and I celebrated one of our many bday... To my surprise and delight, our perspective changes, we seems older now, not so idealistic and more receptive with how the world really works. So much has change, even if we want to, we can't be 18 anymore. How I wish to drop all those grown up stuff and indulge in unrealistic fantasy. But can't, once grown, u can't revert back. Mental growth is seldom reversible, perhaps with the exception of having Alzheimer.
The quarter of a century me, noe what to expect when things does't go my way,noe how to make things happen if I really try hard, instead of lamenting at my failure. Know that things happen for a reason. Put more faith in God and spending quality time wif family and dun take things for granted; for the things existing today may be gone tmr.
AS maturity come with age, I can't image what will happen in 10 years or 20 years time. Will I grow into a better skin or will I stay the quarter of a century me... No matter what, just hope tat I will like myself when that moment come.

But still, I feels that the time spent is worth it...

I m in sch now, waiting for my HOD so as to return him all the cameras and machine history cards for the auditors... I hate auditors ( no offence lah Vee galzs).

So today is an unfortunate day for urs truely... Time and time again there will be these kind of days... sob sob..I m again stuck in a rut.

Validation
All of us love validation sometimes.
Some of us love it to a high degree, while others less so. I like validiation, but I preferred to do it myself. My best friend had commented that I m a me and me alone person. Yah, I m independant women. I can do activities alone, I dun even mind eating alone. In the validation scale(by others) of 1- 10, I m probably a 3.
Meaning, I need some validation from others yet most of time, I heck care. Maybe this got to do with having parents that disagree with everything u do and having a super mum, that u have to keep up or to outdone. I seldom need validation from them, if I rely that for survival, I will be starve to death. That allow me to be independant, made my own decisions and suffer from my own mistakes. You may think that I seems to be blaming them, but NO! HonestlyI have to thankful to them as I have been conditioned to learn on own and rely on myself.
This cannot be say for the new generation. From today ST, you can see that there is a lot of parents who have to put in their foot in every single things that their children do. How can some of these children survive later in their life when they have no parents to validate for them, will they be unable to function and made decisions?
Hmm this can be the same in a relationship. It need validation. How will a couple validate their love for each others, for outsiders to see? Do you need to prove who gave more in a relationship? Do u need to prove the non-believers wrong?
I have gone for a religion class last nite and the topics that were been discussed set me pondering.
Qn 1: If your close friend is not allowed to contribute to the religion and family members prohibited the involvement in the religion, what will u do to help them.
To this qn, I have an instant respone," no idea, its' none of my business ."
But after a while, it set me thinking, maybe that friend may neglect the family due to religious commitment. Maybe the parents dun understand the child's action. Their child can no longer be figured out and this made them scared and insecure.
Then I suppose this is a time for validation. The child can validate their love for the parents and family members by being more involve in family doing, by being at hm more and listen to their complains abt other stuffs that matter to them.
This then lead to a torrential pour of thoughts that flood my brains. Maybe everyone need validation irregardless of age, gender, martial status or sexual preference. It is nice for someone to pat on your back and say that u are alrite, gd job, u are attractive or it is ok to make mistakes.
Thus I m a convert, this up my scale to a more balanced 5.

Meat market
I was up. BRight and early. Tho my date with S&C last thru 2am... I m hooked. This set me pondering abt me,myself and my country. Let me do a small comparisonsbetween the big apple and the lion city.
No.1: BIg apple has more gays, or prehaps I shd be fair to say higher percentage of gays getting out of their closets, than Lion.
No.2: You can be broke in NY and wahlaa, u can still get your shoes.
No. 3: Men in the forties are desirable there, they are normally rich, powerful and single. Men in the forties here that are single are poor things who need to find vietnam wife or appeared in National paper to be pitited at.
No.5: Nobody will batt a eye regarding your sex life aka having sex like a man in NY. Same actions and miles away in LC, your friend and family may disowned u.
No.6: you can be hooked up, anywhere, anytime, be it on the street or the gym, the last time I count, I m speaking to aunties in the gym instead.
So which city do I prefer? Tho NY is exciting, I probably get cardiac arrest sooner in this meat market... I still prefer the safe and nice environment of garden city, at least if nothing else happen to me in the romance dept, I get longevity... + there are such things named DVD so that I can get snippets of the thrills of the vibrancy of NY.

To go or not to go...
Hmm vee gal jio me to watch circus de solique, but then the price is a bit steep sia... Hmm but then it is value for money, think that Cat A seats got the better view. I had watched a circus performance before, not the de solique tho, but it is quite enjoyable... Still I think I have spent lot of money already, must see lah, most likely will go loh... But if next year got Li Yundi concert, then I wun have money... Vee gal say that we may not get his gala tickets... Ahhh. Would really love to see him performing the chopin number on his piano. He look so powerful and charming in front of it.
My colleague lend me her sex and the city DVD for the holiday... gd gd, I can watch it liao. As you noe that I always learn from the city gals, this is of great importance to me.
Any one of u has watch this serial before? If yes, who do u indentify with the most?
My fav is Miranda, sassy independant single mum, who is a harvard grad lawyer, wow she is really power. Have to say that I like the rest of the cast too. They make the serial so colourful, and each one of them is so different... A sure hit, but the topic that they gone through is a bit controvisal, tats y it can't be aired in Singapore. Despite the claim, we are still less receptive to certain stuff. Altho, I enjoy the show, some of the things that are being mentioned are not too advisable.
Tmr is the beginning of the one wk sch holidays, but doesn't means that I wld be less busy. But I m going to take a laid back attitude this wkend. Dun be stress, eat well, drink lot of water( to prevent cellulite) shop and exercise. I will then think of my marking and the setting of papers on Monday... Till then, I will lobo.
Gonna go Bugis later to buy yoyos as door gift for my religion gp outing on Sun... Maybe, I can check out the new NLB...

Stoopid me...
Being the scatterbrain I am, I always lose my stuff. Books lah, cards lah, and most of all, those documents and cards that are very important.
Then I will be in a frenzy...
Step 1: Searching those doc like a siao zha bo.
Step 2: After donkey ages, I will be sitting in the midst of the mess, representing the eye of the tornado destruction.
Step3: I will lament, why I din do proper documentation and safekeeping of my stuff.
Step4: I will then vow that I will be more organised and neat in the future.
Step5: Re organise my stuff
Step 6: Remedised and replace my lost watever.
Months later, after swearing for the millionth times that I will not lose my stuff again. The cycle will repeat again. Vicious it sure is. I m sure it is bad kharma.
Today it happen to me again. I m searching v hard, really hard for my passbook I m sweating so profusely that I can be a stand in for sweaty pig.
Impossible, I always put my passbook on my second bk shelf, now where is it?
Hmm I need to find it so that I can update my transaction made yesterday to the rollerblade seller. It is impt as there is no receipt given and the pretty teller told me that that transaction is not registerd in their comp... Duh...
Finally, I found my Passbook stack inside my advanced grammer book tat I have never read,(apparently) but have been chuck on my book shelf... Heng I go and take a look, else I will pay $15 for passbook replacement, and mY dad will kill me for dragging him to the bank to do this as he is my joint acc holder.
Sometime I m not so heng lah... Then I will gone through the whole hassle and swear to god tat I will turn over a new leaf, but remained as a rotton one months down the road.*sob* why I nv change...
Same can be said for my financial staus due to buying habits and my procrastination toward work.
Why do I have to keep stucking in a runt.
Hmm now I can't find my particulars for my netball gals, jia lat, must key in the CCA point by monday... DUn tell me I have to go thru the frenzy AGAIN? ARHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH *dead*

Typical me, buy the thing first then learnt... Hope tat I can cruise along ECP wif my blade before long.

土曜日について
What do u do or see when u wake up?
I will normally be wobby and unclear before going to work in an auto pliot mode.
This will continue till Sat.
When I wake up, will see a miniature man, talking to me even when my mental has not awaken. Today, my miniature men is wear a blue beret and trying to impress me with his stories of his new rank. Ahhh but at least he is trying his best to be less of a bore.
Sat, my fav day of the week. I can go out, FINALLY (well, actually Friday is not too bad too). Things that I do on Sat is always frown upon by my well-meaning colleauge, who think I shd spent my time more fruitfully, meaning to go and meet men and noe more potential. Ha, I wun work tat way, I dun have the incredulous powess to cause men to be besotted wif me.
I indentified with Miranda in S&C, " I m not sexy, sexy is a thing that I try to get men to see before I bowled them over with my personalities. " Haha and to bowl them over with personalties is really hard and time consuming. Wearing a sexy camisole require less time than been entertaining, unless u count the effort needed to grin and be demure yet naughty at the same time, doing tat is so amazing tat it is probably oscar worthy.
I m n0t a natural at that. But for some people, it is done so naturally and prefectly that nobody will do the roll their eyes things when those natural do their act...
I want to be a natural... sob, but unless I gone for comestic surgery or total personalities change I can only make use of my sense of humour as a shield to the fact that I m a pathetic and ugly sot. Thus it is better to do things that I like on Sat instead of being an entertainer or a bad actor. I might as well throw in a white towel and renonce searching for the rite guy.
BUt, that doesn't stop me from drooling and ahhing at those cute stranger whom I can only encounter on ... rite. tats y I LOVE Sat.

Chick Lit
Have been reading a chick Lit today. " Diary of a working girl", quite a read actually, toking abt finding love when working in a finance company. Haha, a gd read for vee gal and ah Li... tat girl work in wall street and she is overwhelmed by the sight of men. By increase in proportion of men ard her, she has increaseed her opportunity in finding her m & m aka magic men who can save her in any situation.
My colleague was very surprise that I have time to read despite of my supposedly busy schedule. Well, reading those stuff is like a balm to my soul. It temporary satisfied my thrist for excitement in my otherwise blase life. That bk is also quite realistic and the author is writing in first person. I really dislike those third person writing style , esp in chick lit as it is somewhat impersonal.
See... nothing else to write regarding my life. Maybe I shd really change job and meet new pple. See... our ah Li is so happening recently. Turning into an ugly shade of green wif envy.
Now, I need to set worksheet for tmr class and ought to finish marking my maths test by tonite... Sob... Wishing myself in Harry potter land, only then I can conjure some spell or make some potion to enhance my life... Ahhhhhhhhhh
The wise has this saying, " u should be thankful to what u have already gotten and be satisfied." I m trying. Yet to no avail.

Snack analysis
Men are been judged by the car that they drive. The horsepower, the model depicts the men's lifestyle and philosophy.How about women? What can be used, to judge them.
" Must be the snack that they eat."
Hmm really? It is just snack or, generally, the food that they eat?
" food is a staple, people will just eat whatever it seems tasty in the eaterary, and the food they order may defer when they go to different places."
Well it sound like the main course is more like women's choice for men, all the comparisons and the choices made depending on various situations.
"Right! On a normal day, a plate of $3.00 chicken rice at maxwell market is good enuf for me, but if I got the time and money, I will go to the Far east square for a more expensive Japanese meal. Beside,I still love my chicken rice, but if something better come along my way, I will be a fool to reject it."
To me,
Chicken rice = nice bloke, but not exciting, yet good husband material
Expensive food = dangerous rouge, that is good for indulgence and nothing else
Okie, main meal refer to the men the women want,so how can snack reflect the women's personalities or lifestyle?
My fav snack and tibits are cheesy ringo and bee bee. Both cheap and easy available. I just love to suck the leftover cheese on the finger when I eat the ringo. Bee bee is always in a small packet, and I wun feel guilty when I eat it.
Snack analysis : sensual, practical. dun care abt class or image, ( cheap food wat) and always afraid of how those snack will ruin one's figure.
" Hey how abt doing a snack analysis for me?''
Vingear and salt potatoes chip form Marks and Spencer : appreciate style and no fuss. But can be anal at times and demand perfection. Well dressed at most occasions.
Dark chocolates with 70% cocoa : sensual, love challenges and is a team leader.
Hey, am I correct? U decide.

Never been asked
Nursing a gastric pain now. My holidays are over. Works tat I have planned are not done. Stuff tat are not impt are done. I think my priorities are confused. How I wish I m a kid again... No need to worry about jobs not done... Hmm I think I m used not like tat in the past. I used to be efficient and effective. Never once has my homework left undone (Hmm wait a sec, I think tat I did forget to do my Maths tutorials "sometime"). I m disciplined in this area. Now... It will be such a rare occassion tat I probably need to pop champagne to celebrate... Haha how pple do change, but not necessary for the better.
But sometimes I feel tat some areas shd be left untouched.
" Btw, how many girlfriends do u used to have?" I clinged whenever I heard tat some women has post this qn to their "potential"rite after some innocent conversation.
If I m a guy, I will run a mile away from tat gal/woman. Hey hey how are u going to ans tat. Too many and the gal will think tat I m a Casanova, too little and they will start questioning their taste. " Why am I wif some guy who don't seems attract to others, hmm"
Some gal friends of mine will retort, " well anywhere between 2 - 4 will be a gd no."
In this 3 million populated city of mine, how many guys will fill it this criteria? Ans; not many.
Put in this criteria together with others, it will be of no wonder that our birth rate are not optimistic.
" Well, not all gals are concerned abt that?''
True, but most women will be concern abt whether they can measured up to their plus one's exes.
" So how are they ( exes) like? Are they better or worse than me in ...."
So shd a guy be trueful or n0t. U can say tat be trueful is morally rite. BUT, the big but here is that some guys have encountered bad experiences when regarding to this, so they will weave nice little white lies tat they hope tat u will nv unveil. It will be the worst of their luck if u bump into their exes and they say,
" Oh, dun believe him, he is a gd guy but he say tat to all his current gal. I noe as I have compared notes. "
This just shows u wat an inquisitive creature tat we women are...
So some things are better left untouched, it is for our own good.

HAppy Birthday Singapore
Yippe, National day today... No work and all play. Later gonna gymmie wif long san and ah Li.
Hope tat we can go and have my fav miso glass noodle later.
Have been busy watching Sex and the city. Enjoy it and I find it very adultish and adulterous. hahahhh. My brother watch it wif me initially and then is pissed off by the content.. OH my God, wonder what are the kids' reactions when it is aired in the US. Definately not a child friendly show. Initial D is more of my brother's cup of tea. But I find the conversations of the "city" gals very controversial and interesting. Topics like homosexuality, whether we should let our past " ghost" die, commitment issues, r you suppose to contact your friend regarding your crisis in ungodly hours, and last but not the least, stuff about exes. A must watch for the young and trendies as we can take a leaf or two out from the show.

Busy day
As usual, I have millions of thing to do during the day. I can't relax, sometimes I can't even think as I m always up and going. I dun even know where will I go? Which direction will I need to go. It is depressing and I even have to work on Sat. I noe, there are people who work 24/7 but I simply hate to be one of them. I prefer to be tanning on a beach and sipping cool cocktail. Rollerblading or cycling in Ubin. Or doing natural trail all day. I hate working and not enjoying as I m a laidback creature. Now I dun even noe whether I can go gym on Sat as I have an event on Sat afternoon. Lets see whether I can siam. haha. Wat a non - professsional.
I have almost finish the Norwegian woods. Feels tat It depicts life as it is, non- assuming and at the same time u feels sad for the main characters. As blase and bleak as I feel, nothing can be compared wif wat the characters have gone through.
Death is a terrible thing. The person who die will not know wat will happen to those who suffer after their death. The dead is free while the one he left behind suffer the consequences. Life goes on for the living but there are hairline cracks that are not noticeable at first. Then it propagrate, until at one point, the cracks fall apart entirely and crash down. Then it will be too late for one to remedied . The damage done is permanent...
Never leave it till too late. Nothing is unsolvable even when it seems so at first. The key is to solve it early instead of letting it manifest into an uncontrollable destuction.

Aiyah better dun leave my entry to angry
Altho v sian... I think I need to move on. Anyway today is friday and there is no meeting. Yeh! I think I m going down to California gym today, cos tmr need to work.
Yesterday, my colleauge and I went to Amore and she sign up for the Power package and the Personal trainer package. The personal trainer is quite cheap, only $99 for 3 sessions loh... but of cos, need to sign up for the power package lah. I also sign up for the power package as I live quite near to it... The aerobic session is quite good. I think it is better than the Yoga one. It make people feel addicted. Those of u who want to relieve stress, can try it. I think the kickboxing may even be better. Will find out next wk.

Broadband... and perspective
Wah, I finally go guster enuf courage and apply for the broadband. V scared tat my bill will be rocket high sia. Now have to starve and save for the $~60 bill every month leh... No Karaoke, no movie for me. But then I can blog from home now. upload of pic can be faster too... Yipee. As I m scared tat faster speed = faster speed tat the virus and spyware d/l itself, vee galz has rescued me from the unmentionable tragedy by providing me the useful URL. Thanks cute u.
I feels tat my expenditure can be out of my budget sometime. May need an accountant to sort out my mess liao. Time to have a budget overhaul.
After meeting my Uni frenz last thu, feel that we have all grown up. We look more weary of life and its seems like life is less rosy than before. But still it is a gd thing to meet old frens. It also put me into perspective.
Dun noe why, but nowadays pple seems to be more interested in introducing me to their available male frens haha. Maybe they are scared tat I will be left on the shelf and pass my expiry date soon. Durrrr. Although I have crushes(I mean"still" even when I m at the ripe old age of the mid 20s, shd b ashamed), I dun feel like finding the time and effort to meet new guys. It is of too much trouble and dashing of hopes. And hopes mean the guy's and mine. Neither babelicious nor feminine, my chances are not too hopeful haha... Sometime a gal has to be realistic.
Speaking of the guys, I find most of them lackof energy. U can't expect a guy in his late 20s to be full of vibrancy as compared to a early 20s guy. But tat is wat I like abt those guys, sunshiny and full of life. Tats y I prefer younger man as they are less hung out regarding some issues. But yet they dun have financial independance. Haha. Jialat sia

周杰伦はすごいだろ。When he drive, he is like so nonchalant, his 飘移is so smooth. arghhhh、I especially like the way he protray his character、 takumi.

Motto of the day: Be calmer and to stay focused. ( damn hard sia)
