the last day of 2009

time to do my reflections. as i was chatting with yt thru sms. 2009 really passes fast! zoom...

for the first half of the year. cuz just finish A levels. so i started doing relief teaching. first for a few days at my sec sch. then after which went for some holiday before i started my stint at PJ.

really learn quite alot there but then, there are still more things to learn. people see me as a 有所好闲 girl. i really don want this to be portrayed to my fellow juniors. relief teachers are the best people who can really dedicate their time to proper teaching. because full time teachers have alot of admin work to do. but i really enjoyed this pace of my life. everyday come and teach and go home. esp the time after i collected my results and all my uni applications are finalised. before results day, we are still quite paranoid. but sadly, i couldnt get in to scholarships interview but its ok. i can always try again cuz for teaching. there is still chance. plus, despite everyday seeing yt ( i hope she wont get too bored of me, and ps sometimes i make her mad =P) also met amber and best fren there. and also wonderful teachers, miss xiao (sis), mr ling (bro), ms lim yian, mr kum, ms val tan, mr steve poh, miss cheng, mdl, bla bla bla oh ya.. and nicholas, mr how. kinda miss them now. the students there are haha... fun too! hope they still remember me but.. i doubt. hee hee

i also started giving private tuition. trying to improve the way i teach and also to earn some money for allowance.

my uncle also passed away in june. that was the first time i knew how sad to feel when ur loved ones leave u. thats also some part of the life ladder i have to climb up, to be more mature with my emotions too.

at the later half of the year. went for uni camps - ignite change, started to get into volunteerism. and getting into uni! i am officially an uni student already. went thru much but thank goodness there were great friends around me when we just came in ntu. karen, zhiyings, yanting and munjee (just know him right on the first day) . so fun having them around and accompany me during sem 1. otherwise i wouldnt have adapted to uni life that fast for me. i am a slow adapter. and next is getting into RSPHI- knew even more friends there. wonderful ones! i guess life would be boring if i didnt join any CCA. it may be hectic but there is gains for me. i can learn alot of things and make uni life a wonderful one. and there are lots of commitment to it. i really hope i can cope well cuz tuition is starting soon and with lots of events coming up. hope our friendship lasts forever! last xmas re-ignite my enthusiasm. love the times we spent tgt. and i love attending bs classes too. and also, i am real happy with my results though i think i can really do better! whoosh!

i am always not keeping my promises of new year resolutions. so i shant make any of it this coming year.

Happy New Year!

long awaited malaysia trip

finally i have visited tampin, and visited my grandma!

waked up very early as compared to when i am here in SG. cuz people there wake up very early to go market to buy groceries as fresh as possible. for example, i have never seen live chickens being caged up in those cages. and kill alive when people wants to purchase them. first time experiencing it. i finally can eat the noodles there! small bowl and nice! haven been eating them for years.

it's really stepping into life back in 60s. something like what u see in the show "together". familiar shophouses, familiar roads, familiar atmosphere. i just enjoy peace there. sometimes i find NTU a little little bit resemblance of kampong life.

all i do there is to eat then sleep, sleep then eat, sometimes gamble with parents. for the second and third afternoon i did go out to shop for groceries and cut my hair. i actually "editted" my hair twice. once after cutting first time on second afternoon, then the aunty say, not very gd, edit one more time. so when i go back i still find it abit long since i have already gotten rid of my long hair. i want it to be as short as possible. so i went back on the third afternoon and "edit" it again. on the third afternoon we went back with kaka. and waited so long for her turn cuz that fellow go eat lunch. and i am quite satisfied with myself that i have filled up a remittance form which i don even understand what is it abt, cuz everything is in malay.

bought new shoes again. we always go there buy shoes. this time is CNY heels =)

i am just satisfied with my short hair. i feel so much lighter, and cooler.

and ... i am satisfied with my results! i thot i would do badly. haha. my UE did better than my core. major sala already. kudos and grats to those who feel like me too!

i have been waiting for this day to arrive.

since donno when. i havent been going back to my grandma's house for more than a year already. cuz we have been going to KL for a period of time since my grandma was still at my uncle's house.

so tmr i am ready to go!

however, once i return. my exam results will be waiting at my com staring at me once i log in. hai...

anyway i spent a great day with bryan and zy guy today! long time since i last met bryan. chatted alot abt serious stuff. maybe i would one day become mature liao. no more xiao mei mei, but i think i still enjoy the times being xiao mei mei.

wish me luck in my exam results! =)
wish every NTU student: good luck too!!! see u next sem!

what happened to my lappy internet connection?

after upgrading my lappy to windows 7. everything went on fine. but i cant go into internet. although there is full connection to my wireless, but it says: unidentified internet access!
is it because most of the things are not compatible to windows 7?
how? i cant have no internet at my lappy cuz school is starting soon!
can anybody help me?

jiaxin
my another partner!! i nv thought u r reserved loh. a friendly gal and had joy talking to u. yea, sometimes u look like a teacher other times a xmm.. haha. i din know gals got such powerful memories man.. or izzit selective?

simon!
what do u mean by that question? well, that is because maybe u did something that really surprises me then i will remember it de. i guess other gals will think this way right? don 小看 girls ok...
haha... even being a relief teacher. people call me xmm everywhere. i guess even 3 years down during convo. people will still think im only year 1 (haha. thats abit exaggerating but people still thought i am in sec sch)

thank you for ur msg (though i pressed u to enter it.. wahahahha)
evil me.
see u guys tmr!

waitlist waitlist

suddenly so many people interested in my blog... haha. yes wanlin and simon! don't read but nv tag. thanks my dear fans! haha (so thick skinned)

anyway. nearly fell asleep while waiting for 130 to strike just now. hai. as expected, MPS 811 has no more slots! but lucky me, cuz my clock is exactly the same as stars. so i clicked ADD and taa daa... i got all my cores i wanted. 4 of them. 13 AUs in all. and then i change my GER PE waitlist here and there. still hoping some kind soul could drop MPS811, and then i can faster drop HC805 and add that in. but, this needs fastest finger. nvm, i see what i can do in sch tmr. worse still, i can wait for add drop and online appeal. well, at least i succeeded in online appeal before. haha =) *winks*

haha.. a dumb dumb noob noob year 1 like me is considered lucky le. at least i got what i wanted. just hoping the waitlist would succeed too. i don want to study any tom dick and harry course given to me. at least i should have some interest in it. just too bad, my course registration time falls few hours later. if few hours earlier, i could have gotten MPS811 with my fast finger. haha. ok. i shall be appreciative of what i have now.

yawns... this course registration can kill all my brain cells. need to camp in front of lappy.

christmas is here, everywhere !!!!

tonight i'm gonna give u, all my heart can give...
how about peace on earth?
join us and sing, sounds of heaven nature rings.
you will never let me down.
i feel you christmas...
i give it to someone special......

keeps ringing in my head!

i guess i have withdrawal symptoms... but this is indeed a wonderful christmas time that i have experienced with RSPHI. having lots of fun joy and laughter together. i guess i'm much bonded there as compared to before, living in a quiet world. and i myself din expect to be that HIGH as before cuz i prefer silence, quiet, peace. maybe cuz i want this song signing to be a fond memory of my life. it's the people around me that makes it so memorable!

hua dong:
our "GL" in song signing. first met him at old can A when he wants to teach us the songsigns, so bad to make him wait for me til late at night. then after that, it all started with the game hai dai, and some other games that got me stunned when he start shouting. hahaha...
in the end, i won him in almost every game. and that he can only win me once a day! nv thought that a game fool like me also can win him.. HAHAHAHHA!!! but ya, he is a nice GL, at least he makes song signing very relaxing. but... why are u so surprised at my light colour??? is that really so surprising ?

xue fen:
she looks very familiar, i must have seen her somewhere... arh now thinking back. i saw her once when i was heading for an exam. saw her signing at can 2 busstop. hahaha.... what an interesting fate. thank you for all the gifts u made for us. it will surely take you alot of time to prepare them for us. thank you for all the effort u made!

xin ying & yihua:
thanks for all the time and effort u all put in in our group. such great seniors. i doubt i can commit like u all when i myself is a senior. you all have been such a great help ! and i enjoyed my time tgt with u all...

wan lin:
i only know her on her birthday since i was sick on the first day. we made really gd sisters cuz we are always together for practices. and also, staying in the west! ya... and some very common topics. and also her piao piao story.. soo CUTE!!! may our friendship last!!! hope to see u around... rest assure we will meet up soon, don xian qi us cuz of our light colour!

simon:
u are the earliest i knew in this SS group. cuz of BS 1. and was very surprised abt his signing and expressions. u can be really an actor and act niang niang qiang roles.. HAHAHA. then arh... bluff us tuan tuan zhuan. red liao stillll don admit. haha. and same relationship situation as me. but nvm. don neglect me and wan lin can le... haha.. see u around hopefully in next BS 2 class.

deric:
haha.. u are always smiling all the time. very cute and charming. anyway, was v v shocked that u know him. the world is soo small can??? nice to meet u! that was the biggest surprise in this camp? hahaha. but u arh, always spoil the market by ur lovely cards that u make. next time ur lover will be very impressed by the cards that u make for her! haha... stay charming!

zhen yun:
though i don really know u that much cuz u missed out some practices, but i can see that u are a very caring girl towards everybody in this SS group. take care always

eunice:
stays pretty! it must be tough working and busy with the performance at the same time. jia you and work hard!

liang sheng:
u seem very quiet but u are really great at detecting polar bear and hunter. oh my goodness. thanks for ur gift~ that's very interesting. zhen ren bu lou xiang. haha=)

oooo.. i actually missed out one person!
kim phong! my partner in the performance:
i forgot him when he always ask me to remember. and everyone's saying that he keeps bullying me. im so ke lian. haha. i have known him since VOC. haha a nice person to joke around. remember remember remember!!!


sometimes i dreaded the late nights and early mornings when we are having our practices. perhaps that at the start, we are not so bonded yet and couldnt get the formation ready. but as times go by, no matter how tired i am, i will look forward to seeing everyone for the practice. though it's just another round of practice, we had lotsa fun playing the games introduced by the other fellow friends. especially during performances days when we were 70% playing 30% practicing. haha... everyone admits it right? and we were busy learning other groups' songs. haha... i never thought me myself when i can talk so much here. i am a very quiet girl u can ask my friends right? perhaps that the people i met here is comfortable to be with. so i am a changed person now? in RSPHI? haha... well, i need some time to appreciate my silence again. back to my quiet world!

thanks everybody for this memorable experience =)

so surprised to see my pri sch fren qiyuan! she's also piao piao's fren. what a small world right? anyway. thank ZY and karen for specially coming down to support us ... thanks karen for ur gifts. so sorry din make one for u.

happy birthday DAD! =))

the day has come!

oh my goodness! i am soo high today. haha. never been that high after rsphi camp starts due to those intensive practices. sometimes it can be quite bored too, practising the same line over and over again. chanting and signing at the same time. and also the worse thing getting home late every night and getting up early every morning for another day of practice. however, rsphi camp is just like a normal practice day just that there are meals provided. just thinking back that, regretted that i din come on the first day cuz it's the day everyone end early. but anyway i get enough of rest =)

putting back the times we spent on intensive practices, standing at one line after mass performance and get shot down by "harsh comments", we can finally get up to the stage and enjoy every moment in the short song we have up on the stage. after this event i doubt everyone can gather again and enjoy song signing. i love song signing!!! cuz of the music and the meaning of the song we try to convey to the audience. thinking back, it's very long since the last time i perform in public? and most importantly, making friends from other centres! loves last christmas!

today at white sands, met wan lin and deric at JE before 3 of us head to pasir ris together. and we are early. but i'm late meeting them.. oops.. then all of us practise at one of the void decks around white sands. most of the time playing games, cuz we have practised the performance for quite some time already... xue fen taught us a new game (well it's new to me) the hunter, polar bear, villagers. very exciting game and quite scary game (cuz very psychological, dumb dumb like me sure lose)... great bonding time. i think we got to know each other a little better? haha...
we started performing at 7pm, actually not many people at white sands watch our performance. is all seniors, rsphi people, ntu people came down to watch our performance. when i was "skiving" at the upper level of the shopping centre, when we are supposed to give out a little cards to the public. alot of children went up to me and wanted the cards! and they are so delighted to receive it, then they shouted "thank you jie jie!" haha so cute... and i was so satisfied.

looking forward to tmr's and sunday. looking forward more to sunday cuz all RSPHI gather together and cheer for everyone. and also sure got alot of people at bugis cuz bugis street is near and bugis is central area. sunday will be lots of people. !!! so looking forward ... it marks a great memory to everyone in RSPHI!

jia you everyone... loves RSPHI!!!

sick again!!!

i thought i would be in rsphi camp by now... but in the morning i fell sick again. well, nothing much serious but much more serious (sounds contradicting?). nothing much serious is because i can walk run jump do whatever with my body, not like last wednesday when i was so feverish i couldn't get up to walk properly to the toilet or whatsoever. but much more serious is that i need to use the nasal spray again .. hmm the last time i used it was in j1. the doc say it was my nose that's very sensitive, causing the phlegm in my throat and sore throat. some reflux in my nose? that's why i haven been recovering from my cough lately. no wonder. medication costs a bomb again. therefore, i would have to forgo today's activity.

Don't Procrastinate!

Jia Xin shouldn't be procrastinating already. i have been resting for almost a week from the day i finished my exams. blame me for eating chicken yesterday. my cough worsens!!!! well, anyway tmr is the RSPHI camp and i have not been practising the song lately. (p.s i hope other people also same like me . wahahahhaha. *evils*)
looking at my calender. hey.. i thinking still got people just finish their exams is it? hai... so sad.
but anyway. i would be very busy for this week and next week with the x'mas song sign performances. hope can find some time for tuition too cuz it will not be beneficial to stop halfway for a long time. anyway yesterday i just went for my first lesson. wooo. i didnt know she keep a persian cat too!! sooooooo.... cute!!! i love it .. haha =)

why does my cough still hasnt recover???

Standard Chartered Marathon

kinda regret not joining the volunteer with my friends 2 years ago. cuz going it "alone" can be quite bored and sian. plus the sore throat that's making me suffer. luckily i made a friend and we accompany each other all along. my sector is the sector which is always leave the last. we stopped at kallang area with alot of fields and courts for sports. me and my friend rested at the walkway pavement leading to a house of toilets, facing the stadium. a peaceful night, disrupted by my noisy coughing. i cant stand it. i am physically ok but my sore throat makes me so tired and worn out. surprised to see some of my friends running. thus i cheer for them. but it's so demanding for me to shout. so i didnt. waited for very very long before our place can stand down when zy boy already finished his lunch and can go home sleep. i just cant wait to get it over.

my throat needs a good rest....

i hate coughs!!

this is so seasonal. i am always falling sick after exams, with the same illness. and that is sore throat. i shouldnt have eaten the fried chicken wing on sunday.

on tuesday, during my last paper MAS 801 i started to feel unwell when i was doing the paper and stumbled upon those questions that i donno how to do. after that i couldnt take it anymore and went back, feeling very very uncomfortable, feeling cold inside but hot outside. after exams couldnt enjoy, need to stay at home and rest. coughing and coughing. wonder how it will be like during the standard chartered marathon tmr. hope everything will go smoothly and faster end. kinda bored abt it. i just want to fully recover.

and i haven started practising my song yet. rsphi camp is starting soon! december holidays is zooming past fast!!! nvm. i just want to go malaysia and enjoy. and there are still tons of stuff waiting for me to do. but just donno where to start from.

why am i always doing the wrong thing???

to do list:
- faster start tuition!
- pack my cupboard
- pack my clothes wardrobe
- do some filing
- practise song signing
- piling question bank
one more thing . i shall not say it here. haha
- movies to catch: Gokusen: The Movie, and Mulan
- k box ( given my throat situation, hais.... forget it)

monday is drawing near!

at first i thought i have alot alot alot of time to study for 111. cuz there are so many things to catch up on. but the more time i have. the more i procrastinate. the more i keep thinking the more and more time i have. in the end. i still didnt really utilize the time i have. and it gets frustrating when i have no longer confident in that, when i actually used to. perhaps of my rather lousy quiz results. how many things actually get into my head? well looking at the past yr papers did boost a little of my confidence. but who knows prof may set something different from what we have usually seen in our mid terms and quizzes. like some of the challenging tutorial questions. and i even did some textbook questions which are not easy it seems. again. how many things really going into my head. ask me anything now and i have to refer. well. after ranting so much. my parents are away for a kukup trip for this weekend. so im alone at home, thus i went to sch to study with zhiyings. but ended up studying with zhiying guy. haha. surprisingly we met yanting at can A. it's been donno how many days since i last caught up with her ( not to say that time at interchange when she is leaving for home and i am heading for school in the evening!) haha... chatted alot abt forensic stuff which i cant understand. i cant do this type of logical thinking cuz i am always illogical ( is there such a word) and based on my feelings. but u can say im a math major. (so what? peeps studying same course as me. do u think uni math is logical?, no it isn't! hahaha.... no offence.) anyway. luckily zy taught me lattice. otherwise i would be banging hard on my head and cry in front of nobody. up to now. nothing still get into my head after copying and doing sums for n times. i hope tmr will be a productive day for me to get everything into my head. hope that paper would be manageable for me. why arh? people say quiz 2 is easier than mid term. but i thought so otherwise. enough abt ranting.

thanks so much for accompanying me today!

take care everyone. 2 more papers (well, at least for me =)) hee hee. im being so mean...)

if u all are free. take a look at the new mv by evan yo : xiao guai guai. i just like the song. and after watching the mv. i fell in love with it. it is simple and sweet. anyway. nth surprising abt the nv at all. haha.

1/3 remaining!

or rather 2 out of 6 more papers to go! today's calculus paper was... errr... the questions were like ah huh ah huh ah huh (quoted from my tourism lecturer. haha).. they are all similar ... we don even have to learn the later half of the course and we can just do well in it lor. im not confident with the paper. but nvm. i have lots of 111 111 111 to catch up on. as they are rather important and similar questions that would surely come out for exams. and also 801 to finish. hope i can score well this time.

slept a little just now. hope i am in a greater mood and mind to start studying. =)

u should be thinking abt exams now and not other things!
perhaps due to the monthly visit of great aunt. my mind is preoccupied with other stuff. irrelevant stuff which i shouldnt be thinking off. it just nv clear away. how should i control my mind? the window just remind me of my history. and only time can heal this scar. why are students and teenagers now live in a strawberry world? i am gonna prove this wrong. and i came out with a quote. the world will nv stop turning because of ur inexistence, but it may make a difference due to ur existence in life. and make life more meaningful and colourful! live it on with that spirit! right.. im much happier now. when great aunt has just went back to her place.. haha.
it drives me crazy on saturday when i'm badly in pain. lying on my sofa taking medicine. well. both times it happens at home. but what if one day im outside and i suddenly cry out in pain? should i go see a doctor? maybe that is the reason why i am feeling "anxiety" these days... thinking of stuff that i SHOULDN'T NEVER EVER be thinking of...

promise myself that it wont happen again?
i must be happy and treasure everything around me...

well... 3 stones off my burdened shoulder. 3 more math to go! add oil everyone!
thats my first time taking uni exam. i thinking its quite fun. haha.
how to put my 100% concentration in everything i do?

steamboat!

there's nobody at home. no point staying at home for a long time when there is nobody around to entertain me. i have been used to that kind of loneliness feeling when nobody is at home. when nobody is around u so i can do whatever i want. but for now, i just dislike that kind of feeling. well, i need people to be around with me. i thot i can be independent. yes but, lonely =(



let's come back to the topic, since nobody is at home. i got up and did some chores before going to school. i studied on the bus. i sat at the upper deck. behind a guy, he looks geekish. he took out his notebook and a ball point pen. and started drawing comic characters. that's so genius! i saw him flipping his 'little sketch book' . it contains many of his drawings and little notes. that's very cool and artistic. on the other hand. beside my seat was this guy and girl discussing abt their own opinions on some issues in the newpaper. i find it quite irritating and so noisy, blabbering abt stuffs like as if they want people in the whole bus to know how they feel and what they think.

maybe because of that and the jerky bus journey, i feel quite nauseous and intially i wanted to eat big bfast. but since i felt a little 'want to vomit' , i gave up that idea and ate at can A instead. after that bowl of tomyam ee mee. i felt so much comfortable.



i studied abt 3 hours plus... before the test. then zy gal joined me, karen, zy boy followed by munjee. there are alot of things which are alien to me. then the test, seems like every question is from the extra questions and tutorial he gave. but, i don really feel confident. well, i said i wanna do well so not to regret my choice of choosing to stay here when my parents are back there enjoying time in malaysia.



nvm. next is shopping time! cuz mj wants to shop for his fren's 21st bday present. we went around looking for pressies and gave him comments... but he ah, just don wan to listen. hai...
but at last he got what he wanted.. and thus we went to bugis street to shop for stuff.. i bought a watch.. only...

then karen suggested to go for steamboat as we longed to have one... since last time class gathering which i didnt go. and we were craving for it. haha.... chatted and talked alot during the steamboat til we ate til burnt. haha... the whole soup is inedible anymore. but anyway we have finished what we want to eat.

i had a nice day.. except for the quiz. haha. long long time since i last went out with friends =)

relaxed a little

as this week is e learning week. didnt get to go out much . at least out of home to school or sth like that. didnt have chance to breathe the outside air. hai... but yesterday was a wonderful day i had with my mum. i went to si ma lu guan yin temple to pray cuz yesterday was guan yin dan. i thought i wasnt going due to the heavy heavy downpour. i pon econs lecture yst. but ya , u know i am a very guai1 girl. i went for it already on monday after my lab lesson. i went around walking with my dear mum. pray at the temple . wah so many people. esp the aunties and uncles. it's so crowded. so we faster pray and faster come out. then we went ahead to the hawker centre beside bugis mrt for the famous satay mee hoon and the tasty yuan yang ( peanut and sesame paste). you guys should go and try it! esp on a hot day. eating those stuff will sweat u out. hahaha. that settles my dinner. so mum bought some snacks stuff and we went back by mrt. she goes to lot one and i go to school. that 179 is so long til i board the 3rd 199 that comes along. wanna meet karen but i didnt have time. tourism lecture was rather fine. listen and listen. and so after that i met a rsphi senior who will teach me the song signing for christmas. a nice song but a very fast one. i manage to catch some parts. and he said i was very stable for a first timer. what a rubbish. haha.. i couldnt catch most of the words tgt with the song. but nvm. i will practise. and so paiseh for him to wait for me all the way til 830. after that i waited for 179 which took v v long to come again. what happen???

but nvm. i had a wonderful day with my mum today.

what abt today? stay at home and study. face that 111 111 111 again. hai. going to play some games. kinda addicted to the free trial one hour hidden objects games, from big fish. after that back to studying again. hai... but looking forward tmr shopping with my clique =)

e learning week!

well actually it's kind of holiday for me this week but i have to study and take the quiz which happens this saturday! as a result, i couldnt go back to malaysia. hai... studying 111 is a very bored thing to do. but what to do? study and study and study. yey. tmr i can go out with mum for a walk before i come to sch for the tourim lecture and song signing. which will end rather late =(

looking forward to this saturday! not the quiz but shopping spree with my clique! finally can go out and walk walk le. back to studying.

this is so scary!

hai... those people who said uni life is slacker and easier. i dont fully agree. depends on what goals u have in mind. if u want to enter uni and just pass all the courses. well, then that is easy. if u want to pursue honours like me. that is difficult cuz there is always people who is always better than u. in chinese, yi shan hai you yi shan gao. one mountain will always be taller than the other, unless u r mount everest. that will be ... u know who i am talking AbouT!

just came back from my tourism lecture. our project grades are out. but unfortunately, the lecturer had just marked 2/3 and left with 1/3 undone. too bad, we fall under the 1/3 category. so me and beatrix were so anxious abt our results but to no avail. we have to wait til tmr. but as we walked past the table. we saw a couple of A+ scripts. this is so scary. imagine getting a grade A and u are unhappy with it cuz people around u all got A+!!! it's like As are dropping down from the sky so easily? well, even the lecturer also say, what a pity and it is so frustrating to see people getting a high grade when they SU the course away. i am so dumb to SU it so soon when actually i could wait and see my grade to be up. but anyway. good or no good. even though i got A+ . i am so going to SU it cuz the finals is 70% which i don think i can score well. plus, i don want to affect my GPA too. but wait a minute, i don think i can score well in my 110 either! later the marker also very lenient give me high marks for tourism i can go jump down le. haha. which is impossible la cuz most of the lectures i cant really see the link between the content to tourism devt and all that and i don see where i could apply those things she said onto paper black and white. cuz the content is like, making sophisticated things out of very surface concepts. this is sociology i guess, but well, i have taken sth related to sociology. not bad. anyway i made good seniors there. worth the time la. no matter which human or arts subj i take. i sure CMI de. so forget it. i shall not change my decision. cuz i cant change too.

receive my econs grade thru mail.. scary. cuz now results are told u thru computer. computer tells u everything u did good or bad. i did not too good for econs, average score. maybe cuz im not too good at answering mcq questions. nv come across this before. cuz it's always essays and case studies. well. she gave us advice on whether we should SU. but since i made up my mind earlier that i want to minor in econs. i shall not think abt SU. cuz if i want to become a teacher. i need 2 teaching subjs. and econs perhaps could be one of them. see if next yr i could get a chem module or not.

lastly, calculus results for mid term is out! well, quite happy with the score! but i surely know that will be people who will do fAnTAsTiscally well for it. well. im happy and thats it.

now waiting for the project marks to be made known by tmr.
so which means that the only unknown thing will be. MAS 110! when are u coming out? people out there are so anxious cuz it will affect their decision!.

well. i shall start studying soon. MAS 111 quiz is next saturday. what a not 3 not 4 day which. on a fine good e learning week. no lessons for me. and i can go back to malaysia. when my plan is spoilt due to this test. ERRRERERERERERRR!!! an one hour test. which makes me sacrifice all my fun joy and laughter when i could actually attained in malaysia. abt a year plus since i went back to tampin. i miss that lovely little kampong! the fresh air, the wonderful little raw small bananas that my neighbour planted. xiao wan mian! i couldnt find the taste here in singapore. roasted meat. but somehow i can get to eat them due to special ways. the kind of silence there calms u down. that place which i go every holiday since i was born. well. i better do well for my quiz so that i will not regret.

should i pon next week's tourism lecture?
e learning week for spms next week.

what a wonderful BS class today!

had a nice jog today with mum. then after that to sch. we actually wanted to collect the SU exam welfare package but there is a whole lot bunch of people taking the stuff one by one and collect it to form a package. we have a lecture going on and just forget it. lecture was fine today.

after that i went for my BS class. i thought i was late for my BS class. but i walk in the tutorial room and find that there is other people inside. and also i went up with another instructor. he also blur blur, when's the class starting. how come still nobody? so i told the others to leave the place cuz we have signing lessons. not bad. i still can communicate with freddie. haha.

i was alone in the tutorial room. what a nice place. i look out of the windows. i see the school of mechanical and aerospace engineering. further down i notice the graduate hall, and the other halls. and also the jurong island. a very nice scenery i thought. calms one's mind.

then after that simon came in, "eh. ni yi ge ren arh?" i was like, "yeah lor i thought i was late. but come up nobody leh". i don want to stay alone in the class. outside got some seniors but go out also very weird. =( soon after that karmun came in with the confused look, how come so little people? haha. then 10 mins past 7, huiyuan came in. and thus lily our instructor came in. also very puzzled. then, isaac came late with a bag of mcdonalds. ok, u can count. there are only 5 of us. what happen to the rest? still have lessons going on!

today we learn abt time. quite little words. not that many to learn. then we practise on phrases and sentences. and signed paragraphs. oh but before that, we received our results slip. as usual, my name was the last. and both me and issac got full marks! yey.. congrats! so the result slip shows: class test:100%. remarks: able to proceed to next stage. of course, i would want to go to BS 2 , 3 and up...

soon after we finished signing. lesson is still not over yet. there's time, lily taught 2 classes song signing. and she showed us her own interpreted song, if we hold on together. this is a song that my primary sch would sing every teacher's day. it's a very touching song. and the way she expressed the song using signing and gestures. it's so touching. karmun and me regretted not recording down the song. she does it with that kind of touch to the bottom of the heart. i looked at her with my eyes unblinked, so not to miss any of her expressions and moves. what a very good way to express a song thru song signing. i love it to the core! at least, i get to see her performance.

then after freddie finished his lesson. all of the three classes played a simple game. pass down the message. it was SOOOO funny to see guys performing infront conveying the gestured message.
first step: wear a long dress, long sleeved, zip the back of the dress
second step: open the make up case, apply make up to ur first, close the case and place it back
third step: apply lipstick. arh... not with the modern lipSTICK. it's those ancient kind of paper and put it between ur lips and press with ur lips.. hahaha
fourth step: put perfume at neck area
fifth step: put eye lashes and flicker ur fingers at ur eye to show that the eyelashes are flickering
sixth step: do ur hair, after u bundle up, put a chopstick in between...

quite difficult right? then the last person catch it until like, someone's bathing or wadever. so funny. i laugh and laugh til pi gun niao liu! haha

then i was the second person, isaac was infront of me, he practically say out everything so that i can catch it. after that the second round, it was my turn to start the message! luckily now, it's three girls. (since there are three groups) luckily my turn is easier, just sign 7 words:
frog jump, bird sing and fish swim (grammatically wrong but understood) quite easy lah. but still got people sign til very funny. quite a nice game which tells us that, must always relay down the message correctly, esp when communicating with the deaf.

after that, actually can go home le, but the five of us requested lily to finish the song. oh the song she taught us was: paint my love by michael learns to rock. quite a slow song so we can catch the signs she taught us. actually song signing doesnt have to be exact in SEE. cuz it's the public who views it and the public don't know sign language, they could only listen to the words of the song to understand what is the meaning of the song. so the content of the signing could be modified in the way that the public can visualise better. now then i understand. sooner or later i must get this song in my handphone=)

wanted to ask lily to sign if we hold on tgt so that we can record down. hai. but she gave us her name card. very very nice! with a picture of her playing xylophone. she is promoting deaf awareness thru music, songs and instruments. so cool! i hope she is my instructor for BS 2 too...
she makes sign lang very relaxing to learn and she always teaches us more.

but, even though lily didnt sign the song second time, she "signed" on my results slip, literally, as in "signature" on my results slip. yey! isaac said he want to frame it up.. arh, let him frame! haha...

today my lesson very wonderful right? got signing, song signing and funny games too=)

BS test

just had my first BS1 test of the sign language course. it went quite well. as in , the tester signed slowly and obvious enough to catch. but i was abit blur at some parts of the sentences. hope i got it right. but anyway. today our 801 prof was sick and he put up an announcement last min to inform us that the class was cancelled. we were like, wasted the trip here. but i still have my signing later. so i went to karen's hall to rest for a while before going to the revision by the seniors. thats really a welfare services club. look into our welfare too. i mistook the time for 5pm instead of 6pm. so i went early and pack my dinner from NIE. it's really a nice place at NIE. greenery. when i walked along the halls with karen, for once i thought i was in malaysia. full of grasses and greenery. a nice place at ntu.

Good luck to yanting and zhiying for their signing test on next monday!

Happy Deepavali!

super looking forward to long weekend. cuz it's a time i can catch up with myself and my work to be done. and also my uncle from US has come back so we're going to have a gathering this sunday. it will be play time again! got tickets to the ministerial forum at NUS. so i have sth on on monday night. and also a 3hour tuition. just opened the mahjong table for tuition purposes and that, i can hold tuitions at my place. convenient for me! hee hee...

currently cracking my head on the 110 assignment. which is an alien thing. just don like the feeling of doing sth that i totally have no idea on. and it is graded ( though not a great percent, but since there is 3 assignments coming up. which amounts to 15% . that is quite substantial i guess)

happy birthday zhi ying gal!

somebody just spoiled my happy mood for this weekend. i really don't know what wrong have i said. what wrong have i done. perhaps i should stop talking nonsense and stop talking.... to avoid making unneccessary comments that would affect others. and for no reason get upset or whatever. blame it on my stupid idea of going NIE. i shouldnt have gone there to eat. everything wouldnt have started. well. i nv cried so many times just because of one person. so stupid i can be. what a fool. come on!.. it's not april fool this period... i am not going to care abt u anymore. waste my time and other people's time.

i got new things!

yay my uncle from america came back today! at my house. there would be gatherings coming up. and also back in malaysia. i want to join! firstly, i miss tampin. secondly, it's so rare that we can gather together and play and eat together after we are all separated. of course i would not want to miss out the fun. but im afraid that.. there may be quiz or test on the two days. hope 111 quiz wont fall on week 12!!!!

today sign language was fun but there were too many words to learn. but the instructor had good impression of me. cuz she say i can read very well. i was like... i manage to catch the first two and last two letters and merely guess the word everytime. then she tested me those words like ice-cream when we are not even taught yet. haha... but im glad i could read what she was signing to me. i must practise more. practise, practise...

i got new things ! first is a collective coin book from the UNITED STATES. it has all the coins from the different states in US and different years. i feel so rich!. and also a US$100 note. hee hee. also, my mum bought me new black jeans tailored for dancers! so lovely!.. well. im not a dancer, i just wear it for fun =)

hai.. my sim card is always giving me problems. and i have to replace a new one which will cost me 18 bucks!!! grrrr.... but i've been using it for less than 3 months?.. unfair!

pray hard that 111 quiz don fall on week 12!

yey its over!

actually wanted to blog few days before. but i seriously have no time at all cuz of busying chionging for exams and exams and exams. but now it is over. hopefully we wont have another day of 3 mid terms again! it's very tiring to cramp what we have studied into one day. 3 modules.

well anyway. there are things that i wanna rant about but i kinda forget.
first: this is issue is very long already but i just wanna protest abt the banning of drinking of water in the mrt,
second, i don quite like the mobile tv on sbs busses. it's very noisy and sometimes when the reception is not good. the noises can be very irritating. i still maintain my stand that, busses and other public transport should be a quiet place. but the new sbs busses are nice! cuz no tv mobile! haha...

recently, maybe due to lack of sleep and that i studied up to the mid mid night for continuously so many days. i am feeling quite sick taking so many rides of busses everyday. keep applying medicated oil today.

anyway, i didnt miss a person so much til i got monday blues. she's my yoga instructor. she had taught me and my mum for close to 6 years. and now she has to leave cuz of some injuries that she cant perform yoga anymore. now another teacher took over. and we dislike her.

she is very monotonous. makes the whole session so bored. and talk and talk and talk most of the time. wasted so much time and she overan for 45 mins. as a teacher, shouldnt eat into other time when that time period is allocated for u. she thinks she is very good. and think that our teacher got kick out cuz she's no good but in actual fact she doesnt know the reason as to why our instructor is no more teaching. she keep saying that yoga is based on ur own body and do whatever limits u can. but in actual fact she always wan perfection. sometimes very fierce without any rests or breaks in between. no warm up sessions. her big problem is her language, chinese and english also cant make it. hear her voice only i got irritated. and i have been doing the poses for close to 6 years. and suddenly u ask me to change i cannot change overnight la.
first lesson she already pinpoint people to drop to elementary ? thats so demoralising la. lousy teacher. boastful. she say yoga cannot based on looking. must listen. but given her so call "clear" instructions. how to listen properly?
hai.. i really really really miss my yoga instructor. we are very fortunate that we got her to teach us for so long. first time i think that yoga is CMI for me.. but she makes it that i improve every lesson and likes it, take it as an enjoyment. she is a very happy go lucky and cheerful teacher. it feels very good to see her every sunday.
now i think yoga is cmi liao... its so stressed la. not worth my money lor... going to find another teacher. this teacher nv know the number of students she take every term. close to 20! which can really fill the whole big dance studio.

hai... hope she recovers soon and she will come back and teach us.

if there is a feedback survey ... i wont give good remarks.

sian.. sunday is tmr.....

great. i have been exercising this week! went for some short runs with my mum. it feels great after a run and can study after the lesson.

had a great sleep just now! supposed to have tuition but my tuitee always spoil my plan. hai. now can slowly do work . have alot of things to do

Happy Bday to me!

Thank you everyone for celebrating my bday with me today!

went out with zy boy to catch a movie "accident". there is only like ten people in the cinema? and the movie was rather abstract. need higher order intelligence to understand. which i don have. haha. anyway. it was a surprise! a sunflower surprise after a magic trick. thats so cool =))

then after that he went to pj and i went to imm to meet my fellow classmates. i am early. but they are all late. as usual. so i went around looking for hangers. couldnt find one. and guess who was the first to reach? it was wei wen!!! hahaha...
and the class very cute one. coming or not coming nv tell me. then pop out suddenly and give us a huge surprise! well, i love surprises. haha. then dex, karen and huiting started to call me at the same time!!! so i answered the calls one after another. i already estimated that we wont start dinner until 8, since we met at 645 supposedly. haha. had difficulty deciding where to eat. and like what karen said, food is always a problem. so since we ate secret recipe the other time, so we decided on fish and co. cuz somebody just doesnt want to eat secret recipe again.

and eugene, mervin, zihao, this people turn up surprisingly! and jian lin. who din even say sth that they would be coming. but anyway. nice time hanging out with them cuz they will say stupid things or do something really crappy and funny. like.. i hand sign to mervin : How are you? . he gave me that funny looking face and replied, huh!??!! which was really really funny =D well, the food there is only so so. its the people around me which makes us laugh and keep on entertained. and it was the first time that the guys and girls sit mixed. so we get to interact around more.

we stayed there for quite long. and then we proceed to garden plaza for a surprise! i knew they are going to sing happy bday song! but the security guard came up to us and said, we are closing soon. such an anti climax. but well, thanks everyone for that sweet song. haha. tgt with zihao too! since we are only one day difference. and then i made a request to karen: can u take a pic of me tgt with the moon.HAHAHAHAHAHA
and then taupoking session which the guys really missed it. and then they went to watch midnight show at westmall! quite near my house but i decided to give it a miss. quite tiring though.

pictures on fb!

i had a wonderful day today!
thanks people for all ur wishes, through sms, msn and facebook!
shall i list them down?
haha here i go: bryan (best fren is the first!), karen, huiting (multiple times!!! she so enthu, send me mid autumn de, on msn, fb and sms, and verbal!!!) , zihao ( he so cute, he say, i'm one year older than him liao! hahaha), eugene, yanting, dongtai, joethy, jamie, mel, shirley, liling, zhiying gal, yihan, zhi hui,chien sin, weekeong, jiang hao, cedric, huili, daddy, aunt, chang sheng, renmao, fanqin, xingmei, julia, dexter, mr dennis lee!!!. xinhui, shi yun, asta (very early and very late!)haha, and lastly, zy boy. and also 07s25 for their wishes! yey yey. haha.

lastly, there is no moon on my bday! so sad =(

AHHH!!!

Asta is so sweet today!
she actually came up to my house and pass me a bday present for me!
after her jog.
and u know what i was doing?
wearing my mum's dance shoe. so funny
and i donno how to take it off, and the doorbell was ringing
so i just open the door with my shoes on.
wahahaha...
i was quite surprised by what asta was wearing.
a normal tee shirt and a pe short which most PE teachers will wear.
quite a "long" shorts (sound contradicting) but ya, thot she would wear fbt shorts. haha. so unlike her.
hee hee.. just a casual comment.
something that cheer me up today after my bored day today doing nothing
quite tempted to open the present but she said: cannot. must wait til after bday liao then can open. which is like on sunday?
wah. 3 more days leh. tempted...

wonder how is it like tmr...

anyway. was quite happy that someone actually valued the friendship between us. and we open a "question bank". a quite funny thing but i think it would benefit us in the future. its like a sharing folder where teachers dump all their stuff that they want to share inside this folder. so we "future teachers to be" will dump in our questions we had in our mind....

Lastly, Happy Children's Day!
this was 7 years back when i last celebrated children's day with the song semogia bahagia. and surprisingly 933 was playing it yesterday. quite nostalgic!

RSP HI VOC

many many shortforms. RSP HI VOC stands for Regular Service Project for the Hearing Impaired. Volunteer Orientation Camp.
yup just break camp. had a quite bored feeling to go all the way to the east in the first place. and yt and me think that one day isnt enough to bond everybody tgt. now, i dont really have the mood to go for all these kind of bonding and orientation stuff. but camp today was fine. 8 volunteers turn up from sembawang - which is quite little as compared to other centres. our seniors are great and friendly people. played some games all the way til evening. the games are as usual ignite change kind of games which are not so physically demanding. quite strategically based. was quite apologetic when i donno how to act out this movie (lust caution). how can u expect me to act out this kind of movie. well anyway. laysee got the answer. this was a game of charades. another part is when i donno how to suck the beans up using a straw and bring it to another person. i took very very long and so i went to the last position. still have difficulties but manage to suck a few. and there's another place which i cant forget, the blind fold game when we have to walk walk walk and cross some hurdles. i guess it would really be very scary if i lost my vision. but at least still can hear but the sense of security is not there.

here comes evening and we are all waiting for dinner. and most of us were watching tv at the same time. casting "fann & christopher's wedding". a glamorous wedding which i think is too commercialise. feels like as if in fantasy. and also the whole of rsphi celebrated birthdays for the sep and oct babies. and sang birthday song, make wishes, blow candles. my sembawang members also sang a birthday song for me. which i think im touched enough when its only first time they know me. so.... i'm quite happy. just a little tired. and i need more time for my work. donno if i can cope with cca, studies and tuition at the same time or not.

then we spent most of the time slacking around and watching tv before the centreheads conduct a rather serious meeting regarding the upcoming special projects committee. i'm sub com logistics. well, that's wad i want la. haha though it will be busy. just give it a try.

the day ended late. and i'm lucky enough to squeeze into the last shutter bus from aloha loyang to pasir ris mrt. aloha loyang is a nice chalet. good consideration for my 21 st bday. it's a very cozy place. can do alot of things tgt. nice nice =)

Recess week is here!

oh friday is finally here. which means that recess week is here. had fun with friends today in sch. we're alway very high on fridays. esp in 111 lecture when we started talking abt some other irrelevant stuff. they went executive cafe for buffet after a major decision made by them. karen made the determining factor. k implies not j ^ Zy gal ^ zy boy. not MJ. no buffet. haha something like that that mj created. quite funny. i went to sit with them but i didnt eat. cuz i have a group dicussion with the tourism people. haha that was a very effective one cuz we dicussed fast enough. job done and off i go and meet them again in the buffet. actually i can just eat without them knowing i didnt pay. well nvm, i don feel like eating buffet either. the spread wasnt nice. i ate ee mian in can A instead before going to lecture. lecture theatre still has emtpy seats. which means that alot of people pon. haha. anyway. met yt and went home tgt and we created alot of noise today in the bus. oh and miss karen lee today leg sprain. so poor thing.

can take a day or two to rest. after that must start to mug le. 3 mid terms coming on a day.

looking forward to outing with them! and my bday celebration too =)

gone case

hai.. i donno why i feel very very sad after my mid term exam esp when its the subject on math. i used to be strong in this subj and always come out of the exam hall feeling good, well at least not that bad as today. even simple questions i also got it wrong=( maybe too complacent? too careless? didnt see correctly. feel very devastated when i came out of the lkc lt with karen. =( this mid term weightage is very high. 33% and i hope i can gain some method marks, wont flunk til so jialat. and like what i told karen. i don want to use up 2 of my SUs in Year 1 sem 1! that would be too desperate liao. and the other module i want to SU is the tourism cuz i wont score well cuz its essay type. needs analytical and evaluation which i don think im strong at too. i better SU that one.

oh my goodness! i just realised that my tourism final exam format has a little higher weightage on MCQ and short answer questions than the longer structured essay questions! but nvm. should i SU this as well?

if i don SU 801, i must no matter do well for the final exam and pray hard that mid term wont flunk til too badly. anyway i think didnt study hard also. not as hard as i studied for my content subjs. bad grades is just the result of my laziness! hai... i hope my GPA wont suffer (i think too long term liao right?) cuz i still have cores. nvm. i think can do well de. jia you!

well. BS1 class is really fun. get to know alot of friends. and we played a small game as well. its modified from the give me tempo ready go. and we have to sign our sign names. which makes the game more difficult. and for the second part, every person has his or her animal. so we played according to the actions of the animals. anyway. thats after the break and we are already in semi circle. easier to observe each and everyone's signing. and we are made to sign sentences using expressiona and visual features that we have learnt. it's fun. i mean, the lesson and the people in my class. and of course, the instructor! sometimes i find that learning something new and fun is a good relaxation to ur everyday boring lectures and tutorials with many many content that u need to digest inside. at least i feel much better after the class.

going to sleep and forget all my troubles today! hopefully it helps in forgetting all my troubles.

and im going to celebrate my bday this yr with my fellow october bday babies and the class at k box! and sunday badminton outing! yey. so going to look forward to recess week...

lucky day?

i have no idea why i love to wear red. i have been wearing red for the past few days. be it in school or at home. haha lucky lucky red! and it's also my mid term exam tmr i have to be lucky! haha.. i know i cant depend on luck but i've been like that since donno when.

woke up early for zhiying's lab lesson and i went to crash. haven settle down already the instructor said some of the students in the class are not from today's class. must be come here crash after missing yesterday's lesson due to holiday. then after that 3 of us (me zy and mj) so kiasu that we went to da bao for lunch as we know that tuesdays the can b will be very very packed. lecture was cool today but i had gastric couldnt concentrate well but that should be stuff which i think its ok to catch. then lunch time. we finally found a nice place to dine which is somewhere near the long long flight of stairs that link from ny audi to south spine. and in the meantime mj talked abt his interesting life in NS. HAHA.

its tutorial time. we went there abit late cuz we need to walk from the end of south spine to the other end. the tutor cut hair! haha... for 111, i got almost all questions right! so happy. but i then realised i miss out one part of the question. and for 6 weeks already. that tutor still wears the same pink shirt for every lesson. HAHA. maybe he got all planned out that monday wear some other colours, tues wear pink.. and so on. the lesson ended early. my lessons always end early. good life ya?

me and mj went to can b to study since he got his mid term today. and i studied for tmr's 801 midterm. i finally cleared most of the doubts. i think i cleared them. haha still got one part of the algorithm path i don really understand. and then he left for his mid term. i sat down there and did my 801. some exercises which i missed out. and i do do do... til very 'therapeutic' moment. 2 seniors went up to me and they said they want to interview me, the guy holding a very big camera with stand and the girl holding the mike! haha... and that was the time when i was abt to go when they stop me at that super correct time. and she spoke to me abt that this lian foundation at ntu which is doing some research to help the undeveloped nations and unfortunate people using simple technology bla bla bla. well, i don mind the interview if it's the topic which im in close contact with. but i had nth to talk abt for this. but the girl explained to me and i question some doubts i had in mind. and i just speak thru without much thinking. the interview starts very promptly. only 3 questions. and she kept her promise abt the interview lasted for abt 5 mins. haha... i hope it wont get aired. and i also told her im camera shy? well.. am i?

went for my econs tutorial. i have successfully cleared my participation marks since last week! no need to go up to present and even if i want, the teacher wouldnt want me to go up anymore. hehe...
after my lesson, i went to explore around south spine, looking for the flight of stairs up to the rooftop walkway so that i can link to student services centre. and hopefully i can lead the right way when my father come to ntu tmr to sign the study loan. i find and find and find. keep coming out of the same exit and there was this guy studying. i think he must be puzzled why i keep coming out from that place without going in? haha... still, i couldnt find the walkway. i gave up and asked karen when i was on my way home. hai..

and why am i still blogging now? i have to study for mid term tmr! its extremely important! 33%.

good luck to me!

Selamat Hari Raya

Happy holidays!

but i didnt really get to enjoy this weekend. feeling very bored and empty. first, i got quite worried abt my tuitee since she didnt reply me for a day. i wondered what happen. later did i know that she dropped her phone in her friend's car and couldnt get it back. and also i didnt go to her place for tuition. and her prelims are coming soon! kinda worried... but nvm . she got back to me later on...

went out today with family. feeling very sian and bored cuz i don really like the way they interact with each other. kinda wasted my day today cuz im not studying. and also mid term is just two days away! i donno how to start studying though i have practised alot of questions that i have found. but just the feeling of not being prepared.

school's starting tmr! perhaps.. it feels good after relieving myself to sth i like to watch! Himalayan Cats! Meows... catwalks are sooo cute! and also im addicted to Big Fish Games! Cat and Fishes... HAHAHAHA. back to school tmr. and study study...

why did u delete the quote away from ur nick. and appear offline immediately? what do u meant by "maybe it's too early..."? =( well, that was a promise...

First BS class

well. we learnt alot alot alot of words today. our instructor for basic sign language is Miss Lily Goh! she's cute and pretty. haha. but most importantly. her instructions were clear and i think we can pick up quite fast and some of the mistakes we did were quite funny. on the second half of the lesson we were made to sign a sentence in front of the class. and i was nervous and made a little mistake. but it was alright i guess. got the book for $50. and i am going to treasure my book and make full use of it. though i think the course also provides us with alot of details. but i surely cannot remember all. it is a great investment i guess. the instructor make us to think of words to describe us using the initials of our name. so she can know us better and thus, can give us our sign name.

Ministerial Forum

had a long day today. i went for lecture a little late cuz i almost forgotten that that was peak hour when there was a long queue of students boarding the bus. it's only when i was on my way to boon lay interchange then i finally realised. but when i reached, the lecturer hasnt started his lecture. moreover, a guy went up to me and promote abt cervical cancer and HPV. it was an awareness programme and he gave me a token of flower, it was a rose, for a token of appreciation - in the midst of the time when i was rushing for lecture. but anyway. lecture was fine cuz we started on a new topic. finally, out of limits. but it's derivative and differentiation, something to do with limits again. hai...

mun jee bought us chicken rice! we had that for lunch cuz as usual, on tuesday, can B was flooded with people and it's quite fortunate for us to find a place to dine. after that we went for tutorial. and i was happy 1) both tutorials ended really really early. actually they could combine both tutorials to finish within an hour. it's possible! 2) i "presented" in econs tutorial today. thanks to zy gal who taught me how to do. and was kinda being called up to do cuz i was the only one in class. i think. who did the question. but it's not my effort anyway. and teacher helped me to present ( which is the reason why i put the " ") i wrote the answer and she helped me present. HAHA great life. i think my 10% marks is finalised. depending on how the teacher wants to grade me. cuz i already went up to present 2 times already! more than enought. and the teacher also may give us all 10% because the attendance was bad and it's always the same few people who responded to the tutorial session. i can slack my whole sem 1 econs tutorial liao haha... as in... slack down there, take notes and listen to the teacher thats all!

then we met for the highlight today! Ministerial Forum by Mr Lee : Is there room for more?
when we were there waiting, the queue was so so so damn long. outside nan yang audi all the way til the carpark (not a little bit at carpark, but it's towards the middle, reaching lt 19A) imagine how long the queue is? and that was just the security check. we have yet to queue up to put all belongings in tan chin tuan lt (initially it was lt 2, but we found out that there's no such place and later we got to knew that it has changed to tan chin tuan lt but we werent informed!)
poor zhiying gal have to rush here when her tutorial got delayed (why? our tutorial is so fast!)
but anyway. had a long time queueing up from the middle of the carpark til the entrance of nanyang audi security check.

finally we stepped into the audi and few mins later. PM Lee arrives and walked towards the seats. without any form of announcement! we were like.. huh? so random. at least the organising committee would want to give some form of announcement like.. pls switch ur handphones to the silent mode. and pls rise while the guests take their seats. this is so random. doesn't mark a good impression to the guests. but this was very punctual.

PM Lee touched on the issues on economy recovery, but mostly on the topic Is there room for more? but he somehow changed the question to, how can we change and adapt to rooms for more flexibility (cant remember what was it but something like that) and the majority of his forum today is about the issues of foreign talent, immigration and competition that locals faced.
and that we definitely need more foriegn talents to bring in income and create jobs for the locals. and to replace some of the jobs which are lack of people to perform. and the most important thing is to drive and spur locals on to work harder and compete more with this foreign talents so that they can improve and bring Singapore into greater heights. i kind of agree what his say. and also the topic is abt integration of locals and international students here in schools. like what we have observed in NTU, or even other local unis, there is a vast amount of international students studying in our schools, taking up a large population of the cohort. is this kind of competition useful for us? it may help in one way, but we think that it is too over. people are all striving to be the best out there. and what is the definition of best in the future? 200 /100? even if you get 100 marks out of 100. u may still end up in the average cases. and there's something abt the integration which one of the student pointed out this example abt the orientation camps for the various nationalities too. which PM Lee directed this issue to the various uni and SU to decide for themselves. since the country wants to promote cohesion among various ethnic groups ( we are all along promoting racial harmony) and also among foreign and locals. is there still a need for them to be so clickish? but wait, does we locals even give it a try to integrate with them in the first place?

there are some interesting issues to talk about: the HDB thing. there is this PRC who rant abt not being able to get a flat/ condo in singapore UNLESS is.... a PR and a Singapore citizen. everybody seems to get the joke fact abt what Mr Lee is talking. 1 PR cannot. 2 PRs. cannot. but 1 PR and 1 Singapore citizen. CAN. haha. though the guy is very nervous and couldnt articulate well cuz of nervousness. but he made a lasting impression on all of us right?
and there was this last question posted by a student studying English. he posted something, as he said. is too much trivial than what others are asking, about the country and about the global issues. but his question was the one whom we think that was the most relavant to the topic. and what we singaporeans are most concerned of. can you think of it? it's the MRT rule which says no drinking of water in MRT is allowed. is there room for more flexibilty and improvement? well. i seriously can understand why certain boards are restricting this and that, this and that rules. but i just cant understand why the LTA and SMRT want to impose such a rule for us to follow otherwise fined. there is no clear boundary stated where cant we drink and where can we drink. and where is the SMRT officer in red catches us for drinking water and so on... what if the person, like the student, is taking from one end to the other of the MRT line? faint of thirst? i think that's something the citizens should protest about. and there is another issue which i think i would also remember is about the teaching. teach less learn more. teachers are becoming auto pilots that they have to work more than 12 hours to clear this and that stuff. do this and that for the students til they have less time for taking care of the students' needs and concerns. which i think there is room for improvement. which i seriously think that that is one of the issue facing the realm of education. Mr Lee also said that. a large number of recruitments going on and which are the people that is of the chosen good quality. we need more good quality and rather than more quantity which will not make the education system work!

whole lots of interesting comments. and also there is this web session going on by the ntu public who can participate in the discussion. but after the session as the guests take their leave. some ntu students stood up and just left like that. which was very rude. well. and Mr Lee walked past us and we forget to stand up as well. but we finally did. and wave and clap for him. but in the meanwhile there still people wanting to go out. i mean. whats the rush? it's basic courtesy for the guests to take their leave before we can leave. and the MCs also didnt announce it until they think there is a need to. some problems occured which ultimately we agreed that the organising and planning got some problems that they have to take into account. just think that those students are embarrassing themselves and the school. well... hai...

after that we headed on to eat at xin cafe cuz all of us are hungry. we didnt take dinner except for the old chang kee tt karen bought. i ate some porridge. didnt want to take much carbohydrates cuz it's late at night. well, and i think i'm gaining weight! i want to maintain my 48 kg! =(

luckily tmr still can sleep later. but mid term for 801 is coming. hai...

this is the type of satisfaction i get when a student told me that he misses my remedial lessons and hope that i would take over his class when his teacher is on long mc. i know such a thing wont happen to me but if there's a chance for me to commit. of course i would. teaching such students would motivate me on and on to inspire them on ( well. what can i inspire? haha) at least spur them on to achieve greater heights. however. it boils down to what my mentor has taught me that we cannot choose our own students. take every chance as a challenge to make students change their point of view about yourself being a teacher and a guider in their life. but it's a blessing to have taught them who will remember you and appreciate all the effort that you have put in. though there's nothing for teachers day. this is such present i would ever want to receive. is the student's appreciation.

i hope i can go back awhile to teach next yr when i am having long vacation?

i seriously think there is some communication problem somewhere... there are a total of 3 guys who thought i am on teaching scholarship but i am not!!!
i seriously think that... NS will cause you to be detached from the outside world..HAHAHAHA

should i consider MOE teaching award? or any other undergraduate scholarship?
no matter what ... just do well for exams. but i agree with what karen said. i don wan my uni life to be full of mugging and vying for full marks grade. i want some good life and true friendships to be forged. in one way or another. i hope i can achieve a compromise between the two. not sacrificing friendships

one long week

i've just started uni not long ago .. but imagine that for one whole week. i only have 0 days that i can go back early. for 5 consecutive days i went home as late as eleven pm. well luckily my lessons are all in the afternoon or late morning. hee hee. i love my timetable anyway!

monday: i was pissed off by someone but now everything over le. hmmm what did i do on monday? let me think. i met karen and we went for lab 110. as usual we were stoning at the problems. didnt know how to solve it. but we approached for help from the teacher. and he taught us using my computer. 5 of us. (3, including the other two class mates) were listening attentively. he teaches well, tells us alot of things. and i was glad that... i am on the right track just that i present it in a way that the computer doesnt read it correctly. so it's wrong la haha... programming is a course which requires some intelligence and alot alot of hard work. i should say i nv put in that amount of hard work. =( after the lesson we went early dinner with yanting. sit there and study for awhile before we went to DCCL course 1. it marks the start of my life in RSP HI. the course was fun and interesting. well it's late at night already and i thought i would sleep. but i didnt, i listen attentively to the course. and looked attentively at how the instructor signed to us and share with us his knowledge and life experiences living almost the whole of life in silence. i didnt dare to sleep and the amount of experience he shared with us deter me from sleeping.

tuesday: i had lessons the whole day. didnt want to see him but in the end i did. supposed to have tuition today but my tuitee cancelled it. so he offered his apology by treating me dinner at executive cafe..

wednesday: again the DCCL course. i finally made up my mind to buy the SEE dictionary. cuz i think i should really use it for signing and since im giving tuition. all the more i should learn words that isnt taught in class. class was interesting. as usual.

thursday: my lesson end late tonight. nth much abt today. just that the next day have quiz.

friday: TGIF! i love fridays in uni with friends. everybody seems so happy on friday cuz we have lessons tgt. and we have the common break tgt and lunching tgt! just that today we need to study for test so we didnt have much time to chill out. haha. spend my evening with him but too bad we didnt get to watch movie and didnt get to play pool. the only thing we did was to eat and shop for clothes. errrr.... thats all.

sat: went for tuition in the morning. kinda not feeling well. but aiya. later just go meet them and watch movie la. haha.

why is it that everytime i ask u something.or u ask me something. we will end up quarreling.
thats because i know how the answer will be like. and i don wish to listen to it
sometimes i really donno how to face u. cuz i know how u feel towards me. but i just cant tell u how i feel.
i will be cold or warm at times. thats mainly the reason.
i don wear my expressions on my face.
thats because i don wan people to know that im sad and comfort me.
i can be very lame and foolish. but most of the times i take things very seriously.
and i feel very bad due to my strong pride.
and i know i am the one who started it all.
but i am very disappointed when u doubt me. sorry if i am harsh.
the more good u are towards me, the more guilty and upset i will be.
sometimes i feel that: i dont wan to be that cute and foolish and naive girl in ur heart...
i can really understand why this lyrics now goes : but they can never have yesterday...

sometimes guys jus dun understand tt we gals need our privacy too.. n we dun share everything w them.. n we r nt obligated to.
when my father peeps at my textbook or homework. i wont allow him to. but different from my mum. it's the matter between genders. i'm sorry if i have implied that gender inequality still apply in this modern context. but girls understand how girls feel. guys wont.
i need my privacy. wont u let me have this power? wo xu yao zi ji de si ren kong jian... i have told u this before. i donno sometimes i find that: i dont have any power of being private and silent with myself and my soul.

sorry. i am disappointed.

ticket office

one interesting thing to blog abt is that. i have been visiting the ticket office consecutively 4 days already. with the first 3 days the same malay staff attending to me. i think she can remember me already. the first day which is on a tues i went there to terminate my mum's giro card but couldnt due to the 'donno-whose' Ic number is that. then they ask me to call the hotline to enquire abt the IC number. as it's hotline i din really bother to wait til someone attend to me. so i went back to try my luck again on wed and i got that card terminated! to exchange for a new one... then my forgetful father, so cute, forget to pass me his card to terminate. so... i have to go another time on thurs to terminate. the same malay lady and was quite shocked how come i have that ic but nvm she ignored. and one man beside the counter also ask the same question as my father that why dont the giro card auto-transfer to the new card!!! why waste so much trouble. both the staff were laughing silently away while the staff attending to him says : change company already. now no more that company.is ez reload already. HAHA... same pattern as my father... then i forget to check if my mum's card has value in it. so i went to check again on the machine. yes it has value. both new cards. but my student card has no more! so i went to queue again to top up my card when it is abt to closed. somebody must have been laughing at me why am i holding 5 ez link cards. one card that i exchanged with my mum earlier on, now it becomes mine cuz im the one using it. 2 cards (mum and dad's), my sec sch ezlink pass. donno why i still keep it in my wallet. perhaps my photo is nice and i still want to use it to bluff other people (esp cinema office people) that i am still student! shall take it out now. and one more is my current ez link . and today i went back again to submit the giro form. woooo... everything is successfully done all by myself! abit troublesome but worth the trouble la. don have to see the ticket office already. til they going to remember me liao.

a bad bus ride

haha karen said i long time nv post liao. my last entry was just nice last thurs. got tix for ministerial forum today. great that someone wants to go with me! and 4 of us are going tgt... though we thought that tix are running out fast. and it's at NTU!
late today cuz i missed my bus sadly when i saw my bus gone away in front of me. had a bad bus ride today. cuz i sat infront. don really like to sit in front cuz those were the places of priority seats. and when u don give up the seat to those who are 'claimed to be of high priority' pple will stare at u. but then some people are just ought not to be given that seat! they stare at pple to give up the seat and took it for granted that the seat is theirs. fishy smell on the bus cuz there were aunties carrying stuff that they have just bought. feel very frustrated. and also when some (0,20,13,19,8,4,18) talk so loud in the bus disrupting other people. buses should be a mode of convenient transport for the public, and it ought to be a quiet place for people to take a slow step of life, a quiet place to rest, think abt what they have in mind, away from the busy lifestyle. thats what i think about public transport. same for trains and cars. but people are just too inconsiderate to talk so loudy in the buses like it's their home or 7 jue ge tai. mp3s blasting on the bus and mrt like nobody's business. lousy songs i thought. phone ringing so loudly that they just refused to pick up when the boss is calling again and again. this are distractions. just take a look at what japan is doing. when boarding public transport. phones and all must be switched to silent mode. and the buses and trains are all so quiet. it ought to be a quiet place. and then there is a man carring a 3 yr old child up the bus. i donno what is the child crying and screaming so loudly for. kinda pity him but he cries and screams are so annoying that it makes me very upset. it seems like someone is being taken away from his sight. it's kinda heart breaking sound. don wish to tolerate it either.

but some people are just too inconsiderate. they shouldnt have been gained that kind of respect.

it's the first time i took a non-aircon 179. i always like this kind of buses cuz when it moves swiftly. can feel the strong wind coming in the bus. but this is not the case here cuz the bus is filled with people. could feel the people-people humid.

went to econs lecture and the lecturer is great. he explains clearly though a little too fast. cracked some jokes as well. went for an early dinner before going to the YOG volunteer briefing with karen. they started late but showed us 4 videos. one of them kinda funny and exaggerating abt beijing olympics volunteering. still not quite sure what role i want to join cuz they are quite unattractive to me.

went for my 'night class' again. though the topic is abit dry. but still not that alien and bored. something interesting abt ecotourism which i don really quite get it

Sustainable tourism does not have to be ecotourism,
But,
1. Ecotourism should always be sustainable tourism.
2. Most sustainable tourism is likely to be ecotourism.
3. If ecotourism is not sustainable tourism, then it is unlikely that there is any sustainable tourism.

something like logical equivalences right?
just like what zy boy ask me
how many true , and false statements are there?
1) exactly 1 statement is false
2) exactly 2 statements are false
3) exactly 3 statements are false
4) exactly 4 statements are false
5) exactly 5 statements are false

i can only think of one case where statement 4 is true. when the rest are false.

today the lecturer showed us a video on trekking in nepal. tourism. on the diff local tourist perspectives and tourist perspectives. quite troubled abt the dilemma posed in the video. contradictions and ironies in the their perspectives. especially the tourists. at least this module is not that boring and difficult lah. but i may consider to SU cuz im not confident of scoring. since this is GER PE .

don't miss the sign up volunteer deadline for YOG and stand chart! esp YOG! once in a life time experience.

weeks have just passed. but i still haven really mug on my books yet. they are still NEW lying on my table. gotta make full use of my weekends. don't disturb me out ya?

somebody wants to read my blog post. complaining i long time nv post liao. but somebody wants to see my blog. but just couldnt open it due to the computer error (when it's just that he got the wrong address!!! haha)
its friday! i love fridays cuz can laughed with friends again! and can eat good lunch! lectures sometimes can be quite fun with them!

it seems like a night class

due to union day today. my lesson today starts only at 530 pm to 830 pm. it's the new elective that i 've just appealed successfully last friday. the HS813 tourism today. it sounds interesting but as i read the course outline. i was afraid if i cannot do well in this module. but after today's lecture. it seems ok i guess. luckily i had a senior with me and she introduced me to 2 other group mates. they were good too. so it seems like a night class today cuz i ended quite late at around 8pm. when i ate my 'dinner' at 3pm. my mum cooks good chicken rice yesterday and i love to eat her left over chicken rice today! it was suuuupppper good and i had more than one plate of rice before going to class.

one good thing that i've accomplished today is that i've successfully installed wireless router on my pc! with I, me and myself! and now im using my laptop to blog this... well and i think having laptop is kinda distracting too. when u can use internet, chat and do home work at the same time.

lecture today was ok la. though abit dry. at least i met some good people!

i think my gastric is back...

RSP HI!

wow... imagine that i was worrying abt my interview yesterday
i just gotten the call from HI that i was accepted to RSP HI!
however, it's at sembawang centre... not my desired centre which is clementi!
hai.. which means i cant be with my senior =(
i almost ended up in farrago if i didnt state my interest in sembawang during the interview.
not that i don like club farrago... club farrago would definitely be fun. just that im more interested in centres than this club. however, those who wants farrago. it would definitely be a great experience for u! congrats yt!
but nvm. what ever centre it is... it's still RSPHI!
the CCA and the RSP which i want to go....

but now... im worrying abt my studies now. especially the tourism course that i just added. it seems like it's unfair to those newbies who got the course after the registered period. i'm year 1 only leh...

oh no no

tuesday was the most busy day i had i guess. the most 'sian' day with tutorials. went to sch a little early to photocopy my notes. it was abt lecture time when people starting rushing in to print notes. lecture was fine. tutorial was fine too cuz karen joined us in our calculus tutorial. similarly, i tried to understand what the tutor is talking abt! for the econs tuturial, i donno anybody there. so sad. but i got to know a girl today. and i also volunteered to do a question and presented in front of class. not bad not bad!

today was the interview for WSC! i went for HI and VH. my interview for HI wasnt too good i guess... i was kinda stressed and disappointed upon knowing that clementi was too full. but for VH i just bomb my luck there. haha. it was quite alright too! nvm... waiting for the results

everytime i go into whatever interview... my face when i come out is always that pattern...

sotong

well... i think i'm too blur for an age of 18!
help me!!!
i don want to be a blur sotong!!

today so many AUs drop from the sky!

why do i say that? this is the last day of school. that the add/drop period is opened. two more days to closing of add drop. then, everybody in my clique is getting anxious abt it. i was too! initially i gave up already and i shall stay with my 15 AUs. then today karen helped me check my mail. and i got two rejections, 1 successful appeal! woohoo... i was overjoyed! 18 AUs just as i wanted. and i got the course that i really want out of the 3 that i've appealed.

we were like as good as ponning the lecture cuz we're busy with add drop today. i was the lowest number of AUs among my frens. now with 18 AUs. im still the lowest!!! meaning that. three of my friends went to add 2 to 3 more within one lecture. haha!!! but i think they are considering to drop cuz it's too heavy for first sem.

browse thru the course info. it's more like GP style. but tgt with humans and geog stuff. should be quite interesting but i missed the first two lectures. one disadv abt this elective is that lessons are from 530 to 830 on thursday. which means that i couldnt enjoy my mum's cooking on that day =( its only one lecture but there is coursework to do. first project work. alots of reading and writing to be done but im just not too good at it. but i try. its my first GER PE of AHSS. well. kinda unfair why we have to take 3 electives from it, where as BM and STS only 1. none for engineering. it would be good if they allocate one for engineering.

i wont want to drop it cuz 18 AUs is just nice. and i can clear my GER PE AHSS at the same time.
im a lucky girl today=)

i begin to adapt into uni. with all the help from this bunch of friends around me. without them. i would have been a loner, not knowing how to enjoy uni life.

i hope i can know more friends in the new course im enrolled into...

i enjoyed my day today!

after many moody days. i enjoyed today. today is my best day out of the close to two weeks in NTU. it feels great to shop at campus. i met karen today at noon and we went round the canopy k. north and south spine to window shop for things. karen bought two shirts for herself. for me, i didnt see some cat stuff that i like. feel like getting a laptop case. but there's no ideal case for me =(

i feel bad today cuz i spilled a box of fruits at the foodcourt=(

after that me and karen walk to SSC cuz she wants to collect her student card. after that we went for our econs lecture when we meet zy gal there. started asking her abt tuition stuff which made me feel like i'm a reporter interviewing her! haha. i hope i can manage my time well with studies and tuition. we had a fun time today at econs lecture when we got restless behind and started talking rubbish. i even took out my hawflakes to nibble on.

i went popular with ZYs cuz they are looking for some stationeries. then i crashed the marketing lecture with zy while doing my own stuff. before going to the WSC welcome tea!

as usual they gave many talks cuz there are many special projects and RSPs. i was quite touched by the performances and especially my gl's presentation! i like her analogy of the half-filled bottle and how she relates it to volunteering. a pessimist will see it as a half empty bottle, an optimist will see it as a half filled bottle. a volunteer will not see it as half empty or filled but he or she will immediately want to find people who are thirsty and offer it them (eh, am i correct?)

i hope i can get into RSP HI! it feels great to be part of them and most importantly, i would want to try out giving tuition using signing and at the same time i could make an impact on other's life who are less fortunate. that is the kind of satisfaction.

tata. tyty!

well... with lots of things im troubled about. unhappy about. frustrated about. angry about. be it with myself or the people around me. somebody just make my day today. a simple sms with only 4 words. at least there's someone who put my words in his heart.

uni life is blur at start. i just hope i can quickly adapt to it asap. this is the hurdle which i have to overcome.

though everything just started. kinda tired with it... i do need a break. that's because i cant have a good sleep everyday. and being late everytime isnt the solution to my problems...

我豁然发现某人不了解我，但又发现我和某人彼此更了解对方了。哈哈。神奇哦！

I am officially a UNI student of NTU SPMS!!!

yesterday was the first day at school! i've attended the first lecture on calculus. the lecture was fine. prof was great except that i haven got use to the slang. bought a new book on calculus today which cost me close to $50. and it's already cheaper at NIE bookshop. i'm gonna make full use of that. thats so heavy. i wonder how am i going to bring it to sch.

troubled by the STARS. fortunately i've added one UE on econs. starting lecture tmr! i think i'm going to minor in econs and chem. cuz just studying math is kinda plain and math blends well with econs!

today i attended another lecture on MAS 801 discrete math. i had no wonder when the lecture proceeds on to the last part on the modulo. mod this and that. so i finally know when a divides b , it's b/a and not a/b. a/b is written when a is divided BY b. this is getting out of me.

sleep also will dream of the STARS. is 15 AUs really enough?

如果你现在就要放弃的话，那我真的对你太失望了。。。
我真的不应该说那句话的。

HAPPY NATIONAL DAY

国庆日快乐！

其实有些事情，摊开来坦白地说。。。　真的能够让你舒服多了
谢谢你
可是，我很像伤到你了
对不起

我想，我还无法给你一个答案。
慢慢来。。。

National Day celebration

i can say this will be the third time that i'm celebrating Nat day in PJ. as a J3.
i wore my red pe attire and slippers to sch. an ultimate student teacher authority i i have! i saw in the bus 985. a sea of red! thats interesting. i stood at the old bp campus waiting for yt and we walked to sch today with shorts and slippers. doing the 'i want it that way' song sign along the way. feels cool.

walked in
noone stopped
yey! pass the causeway...

walked into the staff room like any normal student do. HAHA. and we joined the observance ceremony. somehow the committee doesnt like it. the whole sch sang another time of the my people my home. i can regurgitate the lyrics without much thinking effort cuz i have been singing it for ten years already. and saying the pledge.

we had a staff bfast today! with the math dept. before that. the 3 of us were frantically discussing abt the uni electives and so on... and we proceeded to living room to help out and play WII. its a fun game with the teachers!

up til 11 am when the concert is about to start. we're still happily singing the songs in living room away and i'm still eating the bfast!!! then karen, huiting, asta and bryan joined us later. we sat tgt with the students as alumni. cheering and clapping with them. this yr's concert was rather ok. esp some dances! we joined in the sing along session.. and we indeed have alot of fun while that 2 guys went up instead. me and yt did the home song sign! it was fun...

after that the 3 of us went to help out in the math COE. we didnt maen to ps-ed u all! so sorry. it's our last contribution to the sch and students. and i've got a student referred to me! i did the events calender while yt and zy did the deco of the word TEAM. yt is good is such deco stuff. haha. crap alot of jokes with the math teachers. esp that lao ban. hit my knee with plasticine ball. so naughty! and i hit him back. hahahaha... 谁叫他自找的！but we had a fun time working inside.

time files unknowingly. we went to canteen for a chit chatting session abt 4 plus. when zy talked abt his NS life. it's like so fun and cool. but if we're really some guy entering NS it will not be that cool anymore. and next we went to westmall for a meal. and then kinda bullied by the both of them. teasing me here and there =((

didnt had a good sleep this week. i couldnt take it anymore and i popped on my bed and slept for 12 hours!

Freshmen Welcome Ceremony

went for this freshmen welcome ceremony. i don even know that there is this event apart from the SPMS orientation. until somebody told me. it isn't bad afterall. but some performances are really.... but i think the idea of the lighting of torches is somewhat interesting. there's this freshman gown, which gives me this itchy feeling all over. wanna take a photo but we feel so paiseh!

after that we went for the SPMS orientation. there's this lady who voice is so irritating and 自high-ing. wanted everybody in the LT to self introduce. and those people who already know each other will also high themselves. it's damn lame... we cant wait for everything to start. finally it started, but we cant hear anything cuz the presenter and the mike were both soft. we couldnt catch anything that he said. was quite fed up by the noise. but luckily there's powerpoint slides.

after that there's the individual courses talk. nth much. talked abt the usual general and common sense stuff. what we really want to hear is, those info abt how to register courses. the various types of electives. abit useless. end up playing with zy gal drawing funny pics

went to student services centre to collect our tertiary passes. before that i've collected my matriculation card, and i'm the only in MAS whose surname is YEONG! nicenice.. i really love my photo! we keep giggling when both zy wrote their names one time after another. so the lady was saying 'girls love to giggle' to zy guy.HAHA

we spent alot alot of effort trying to find that place. ask for the help desk but apparently we thought they gave the wrong directions. see map also got problem. so ended up asking for directions from some staff. finally they gave us the correct directions.
it's like 'we will NV get there..' we have a long long way to go... stef sun 's nat day song.HAHA

after that i went to zhiying's house to visit mimi! mimi has grown heavier! and naughtier.. running about the house and trying to play hide and seek with us.haha. had a hard time luring the cat out to put in the cage. and sorry for not holding the cat properly. and letting the cat off. delaying the meeting time with the class. poor weiwen waited at the bus interchange when he actually thought we took bus 11. the BUS

they were at fig & olive. for once i thot karen was saying.. snake & olive. what kind of shop is that??? haha... but it was a fun fun session with them! cuz i really really laughed out loud. esp when we said something abt the AT. i really do treasure the times with them. cuz we spent alot of time tgt. studying. overcoming challenges and also gossiping. and laughing abt stupid things. thats JC life! JC kids!

went to walk around JP. they wanted to watch UP but. i'm tired le, next day have to go sch. and im not interested in that movie!! sorry... went to walk around NTUC. donno for wad. haha. then we headed home. nice outing. but the food not that good.

当老师的最后一天

like i've said from my previous post. today is our official last day of teaching in pj...
woke up early to do some work in sch. i reached early and i didnt know that morning assembly resumes last friday. so i went down for morning assembly, standing with nobody that im close to. it feels weird when the usual RTs will stand there with me for assembly. when mrs tan announced that lesson will end early at 12 today cuz of pj's great effort in getting the character development award, and the value added silver award. i kinda like, burst out laughing silently. cuz wed's lesson supposed to end early today, ending 12 doesnt make any difference. secondly, with my batch's "atrocious" results, we can win value added award. abit funny ya? but, it's still an award better than nothing. kudos!

went up and rested for awhile. do some packing and stuff. went down for a bfast and saw my students and they asked me abt a physics questions. u know? i can tyco questions. but i cant cant cant teach physics. so embarrassed!... i practically started work at 9 when yt reached. upon realising that there's no math type installed in the staff room pc. then i have to borrow laptop from ms LY, do for awhile then i went to observe lesson. it's my last time observing his lesson s25. kinda upset with the class cuz, they are just like my 07s25... it was quite funny when lao ban asked the studente what is GG. one of them said, " it's like good game. game over... it's used to describe you, you are gg." HAHAHA

after that i went off for my lesson. taking over ms haridas. this class has been rather bad to end of my teaching stint here. noisy noisy noisy. i gave back the quiz, keep asking me for marks when it's not supposed to give... arghhh... eat in my class somemore. when it's like a few moments more to end of day! but nvm, at least there are some who are willing to learn.

then. we went off for a teacher's short meeting at lt 1. some good news to share by mrs tan. some farewell gifts for the admin staff. sob sob. we joined in for the staff lunch as well! and also the sports apparrel sale.one thing i like abt the sch, i donno for other jcs. that we have regular sports apparrel in our sch. we can see see look look. after i've entered jc i like to window shop in sports apparrel shop. and i bought a cap last yr in the sale. the price is a little cheaper compared to outside.

yt went to meet a senior. long story to be told. but at least we get to know more uni stuff from him. he's a great senior i guess.

next is our turn to... be santa claus!!! haha... we, or rather... yt and zy went to buy lots of gifts for our dear colleagues yesterday. but of course i chipped in as well. just that i missed out in the choosing part. HAHA. chit chat with alot of people. esp miss lee and mrs tan! i really hope i can come back here to teach one day... thats my aim. or rather. our aim! me, zy and bryan! let's keep to our promise! who will be the first to come back? =)

there's no sharing session today cuz there's no students. haha. cheat my feelings but nvm, i'm in sch anyway. asked zy and jeslina to look for us. playing wii. finally the zhiyings meet! kinda tired in the evening before the sharing session. after that we went for a dinner. and then to some window shopping, observing and guessing the gifts bought for the teachers. was a fun time.

其实，今天心情不怎么妙。。。挺想让你送我回家的。
