remember the frog leg poridge?

this time it is prawn mee.... stupid bryan wong. he ought to be shot and hung for even appearing on the show. you know what? that show should be banned from the airtimes of channel five and the producers should swear that they will never ever air something like that on tv in singapore.

they should know that singaporeans are weakings for food.

hawker talks should not exisit.. they should fire fiona xie and make sure that she nevers hosts any food variety show anymore coz all the cuteness in her makes you concentrate on the food more and you end up having cravings all over again.



two weeks ago i had to hold my temptations when they had frog leg porridge on the show. and then this week i happen to be watching tv when this stupid program popped out on the tv. and they had bryan wong boasting bout some stupid prawn mee in east coast which i have tried before and knowing this taste buds i have......
NOT ONCE BUT TWICE!!!

i started craving for PRAWN MEE!!!

and this time around it is still the same thanks to my darling for driving me all the way to kallang to eat subsituted prawn mee coz east coast was too far. thanks dear... i really appreaciate it LOTS and i love you more for it.

you should see the look of absoulte satisfaction when i finished with the whole damn bowl of mee, a cup of barley, and one lime juice. nothing beats having a completely satisfied stomach. it makes the whole body happier

what's with the sudden mood to read a novel
and it is a romantic novel of all books

why isnt the reading mood for a textbook or notes? or maybe some library book that have any reference to any one of the modules that i am taking now? why is there the sudden mood in the first place? I SHOULD BY RIGHT AND LEFT BE READING MY SCHOOL NOTES (aka studying)

i spent two hours on wed trying to find a book in hall to read. i dint want to reread the many books i have on my shelf and thus i messaged nihara and michelle, and even have to go to the extend of messaging ashley to get my hands on a book with at least 300 pages and rated "nice to read" at the very least. i am a sucker for a good book. if it is not recomended, i dont read it, unless i really have NOTHING to DO. which is not true for current situation.

ended up getting ransom but ended up reading the gift.


the thing is that i cant stop reading the damn book until i finish the book which by the way i am not done with yet. i still have 1/3 more to go before i can hit my notes. you cannot study until you find out what sara did when she found out her husband is a pirate!!! stupid feeling. i really should not have even started reading the damn book.

my whole week has been a freeking waste. i have not done even 1/4 my intended readings and projects are hanging on the bar. i think i am not ment to be studying in university. i think it is high time i really spent time with my notes.

the day to dye

who else do you call when you need help dying your hair? SHANNY TAN JINGXIAN B406! dont worry, i already did my hair last week, this week is to help my 2 4th floor mates get some color into their hair. i had to go along and smell the stink. hair dying solution is not the best smelling thing on earth.

HOW TO DYE IN HALL



the last time i help nelle to do her hair highlights and it ended up looking like her normla hair. which i spent 2 hours wrapping her head in aluminum piece by piece strand by strand. it was a tedious job to be forced to do that bitch's hair. and then after that was dinah where i tried to cover up her orange patch but ended up looking the same. this time better not screw up. i think i am bad with colors. why do you think i went to the salon to get mine done?

when i am supposed to be TRYING to do some readings. i already screwed up my "studying day" yesterday and today i am going to end up screwing another day. THIS WEEK IS A HORRIBLE WEEK!

Thursday, September 21

oh yeah... one more thing for the day:

i went for my first dynamics class today!!!

for the record... i have ONLY been to the 1st lecture out of all the dynamics related class. now it includes 1 tutorial too! and all this time i felt like i am taking only 4 modules this sem. and guess what? tutorial was damn fun la. i want to do it again.

reconfigured the wall
plus a big of math
yes i did SOME math

mala said that my room looks the same as last year. well.... DUH... since i have nevered moved out of this four walls for one whole year. nothing have changed. things are just added into the collection of all the rubbish i have stored in my room in some nook and cranny of the shelves.

so since i saw how mala printed some photos i though maybe ill do the same and change the way my notice board works. so i got out my cheap photo paper, printer with FAKE ink and started printing all the photos in the past few months. and guess what? i finally realise that printing photos at home is SO MUCH DAMN BLOODY CHEAPER than doing it out even when they charge you 20 cents for it. printing one only cost



HP everyday photo paper = bout $10 for 40 pieces (this is max price)
FAKE ink = 12 for $20

thus:
to print 8 photos on one piece of paper, it only cost 3 cents to print a half 4R and 6 cents to print a 4R assuming that electricity is free and connected computer is not cost effectived and printer is already provided.

compare 6 cents to 20 cents for 4R! wouldnt you rather print pictures at home. then again the quality of the photos is another things since the paper is of relatively cheaper and of worse quality then the kodak ones. but then again. from what i have printed, other than the feellng of the printed paper, the look!

the only factors that will make a bad printing job is
1> bad settings
2> poor picture quality
3> color quality of file

other than that what is the point of printing the file? even if it costs 3 cents to print half 4R and it fades fast then print again la. 3 cents only lor. only took me less than a dollar to print the whole wall of it. and i am so happy with the way my wall looks. ill just add more photos to it when i photo whore more. easy to add to the collection without hurting your pocket.

sashimi good enough to make you wish there were salmon swimming in kallang river

Hanabi has the best sashimi in singapore. where else can you find salmon and cuttlefish and my favourite yellow tail all nicely sliced up for you on a single plate. and you know you can ask for more. like hell it is buffet with the best atmosphere. you can drool with the sight of the sashimi all lined up on the plate and the wasabi sitting there at the edge of the plate sceaming out to you to just "add soya sauce and stir".

the mackeral is all nicely grilled with the yummiest of sauce. chawamushi with ginko nuts, scallop with the shell still on, actually the sashimi is really the best. i dont really like fish but this is more then enough of seafood i will love to stuff down my throat. if only jilllian came along. then three people will be the best. three mad girls sitting at the restraunt stuffing themselves. all for just 33 bucks. totally worth it.

but the place is really nice. lights where fantastic and the outside had small streams.

that reminds me. madness can come in videos.

what the crap is regression analysis

my math already sucks and my understanding for something so complex is even worse. what is the point of doing this stupid data analysis lab assignment. i dont even understand how to use excel to do math for me and now you add something else more complicated called regression analysis. like what the crap, anything math is FORIEGN. like FRENCH. or ALIEN.

i spent like two hours trying to colate the damn data from my sources and i have to find out the intercept and donno what variable to plot a damn graph i dont even know measures what. then i got the wrong figure for intercept and end up having this weird graph that looked obviously wrong and yet i cannot find the problem with it. then when i finally got the damn thing up, i have 6 lines on my graph instead of 4. and the thing is i dont know which one is not needed.

i hate lab reports



i just handed up the report with 6 lines.

why do geog have so much math? but at least it is math compared to project that involves field work. to tell you how much i HATE fieldwork projects. then again you should see how much biochem is in one of my geog modules. enough to make you go mad in NOT UNDERSTANDING ANYTHING. i am an ARTS STUDENT. and i admit that i am one of those STUPID ones.

i am now four weeks behind most of my modules and i think i better use this mid term break to catch up on some important things. try to spend less time sleeping and going out already. and try to spend more time TRYING to understand my work. maybe it is time to actually START going for dynamics. but who the hell goes to 8am lecture and sleep?

then there is my readings which i have not located the book from the RBR. coz for the fact that the first ever time i used the RBR in my entire time in NUS was on monday. i actually was taught to use the computer to dig out a reference number to put on the slip of paper. i am so smart!

okok. this week is going to be a good week. i finally will have time to do things since IBG is good and over with.

i just lian-ified myself

what happens after 4 hours in a saloon chair and hair probally 10 shades lighter then your hair? you japan-alised yourself and wished you have never chose that color which went two shades lighter then what it supposed to be. but think of it the other way. it IS a BIG change. shanny hair is ALWAYS full of BIG CHANGES. for the past half a year it has been from long and normal to short and the most un-normal sense of the word.

what my sis said is right.
you have to think very hard to remember what my hair color was last week.


but at least this color is here to stay for at least the amount of time i get really really sick of it. but i think it is going to be here for a good amount of time of let's say.... 3 months at least before the roots grow out in a really ugly way. then ill try back my favourite hair color = red!

actually wanted to dye the whole damn head red or purple. but coz of the last bleach work the color will not stay coz NOTHING stays on 90% bleached hair. but i had red ones just when i cut my long long hair so in the end have to make do with brown, then decided to go highlight coz it will add dimension to my NICELY cut hair. i am very happy with the haircut. that IVAN guy cuts it really well.

at least this is LOW MAINTAINENCE HAIR. no need to comb or put weird styling products. it is cut to stay like that. the messier the better. dont even need to put wax!!!! I LOVE LOW MAINTAINENCE. bathe, let dry and rough it up when dried.




i am so tanned the hair looks weird on me. my sis says that from far i look like i have no hair. it is the color la. not my skin. when i think of it i think i agree too.

stupid jillian had to switch on the tv
she simply HAD to

there they had on channel eight, introduction to food in serangoon area. and it was so near home yet SO FAR AWAY. then there they had introduced the following in where the food just stood there with ultimate grace and poise on the plates calling out.

duck rice (with 3 year old sauce)
oyster omelette (with oyster bigger then your eyeballs)
frog leg poridge (witht the fattest legs)



how can you not salivate when you just had half of your serving of hall food? HALL FOOD LEH!!! COMPARED TO FOOD OUTSIDE!!!!!!!! and there i was trying to not drool too much over the nice oyster omelette and frog leg. but that stupid frog was really hopping at the back of my mind. it was a BIG FROG HOPPING at the back of my mind. and i think that the frog was calling desperately out to me - "eat me... EAT ME!!!!"

why did it have to call out so loudly? the fairy godmother really did a good job in creating hallucinations.

frog leg frog leg frog leg. what goes better in the middle of the night then a nice claypot of frogleg? thank you darling for driving me out for frog in the middle of the night. all the way to maxwell market summore although we spent like 5 bucks of your petrol getting lost in CBD! bloody CBD and all their stupid retardly planned one way streets. dont the urban planners know that one way streets only make people more confused coz with the nagivational process people actually DO GET LOST coz you can turn on one street and not the next.

ill go to URA when i graduate and make them change the layout of CBD!

then came a few questions?
1> how much is a frog?
i have them at the bishan construction sites. just that i dont know exactly how BIG they are. but i promise you that i do hear croaking once in a while. ron ask me to go ask aili. how come a bowl of rice water and ONE FROG cost like a wooping 8 bucks?

2> what does a skinned uncooked frog look like?
imagine- GROSS

it was not that long ago when i actually cared
now i just let things happen
i hate any sort of politics
shanny involved in politics is not a happy shanny

once bitten twice shy
i dont freeking care now
and i dont want to
it takes one incident to make me shrudder

blame it on my personality
it has nothing to do with me

its a new week
HOW MOTVATED ARE YOU TO STUDY?

you sit in your room and stare at your notes
you feel like you WANT to read it
and you HAVE to
but you MOOD is telling you you DONT FEEL like reading it

they look fresh from the printers - nice and white with dog ears
great to write on and add colors to
good notes make you happier
but you refuse to dirty the paper with your ugly handwriting
what if it looks ugly - then you'll have to print again

you have a filing system
everything is neatly in the files
filed so nicely you dont FEEL like taking them out
what if you accidently spilled coffee on it?

there are so many files
all you have to print
but cost so much
and too troublesome to print on your own coz you dont want to flip odd and even pages

the irony of wanting to do something about your semester

sometimes you just want to study
but things like the bed or something else just pulls you away
FAR FAR AWAY

the finally awaited DnD
guess who is what

you spend 50 bucks to sit around uncomfortably in weird costumes you spend the whole week making. and eat dinner that is not of any importance because the FUN of it all it to see how much more retarded can the rest of the ballroom look. then you laugh at everyone else and how ridiculus they look in body paint or short skirts and dyed hair. some half naked. some totally naked. some wearing things made of cardboard so big you wonder how they got here.

there are street fighter, xmen, addam family, toilet, lord of the rings, toy story, super villians, construction, super mario, flinstones, retro, angels, rainbow, vendetta, boxing, hospital, witches.

aiya. so many tables i cant even remember what they all are. but the really good ones are toy story and lord of the rings. i think B block put in alot of effort for Dnd. then again. what is the point of going for Dnd if you dont put in all the hard work?

moodless to blog.
sorry

Monday, September 4

they are making me do it

over my dead body. like WA KAO LOR
made me cry and cry and cry non-stop.
cannot even stop to tell them its a BLOODY NO
I DONT EVEN WANT TO GO BACK COZ MY EYES ARE SO SWELLED I DONT WAN TO TALK TO ANYONE.

im already burdened with family problems, how you want me to do anything else?
even if i can I WILL NOT
MIND IS SET ALEADY
not like you dont know me.

aimed on it so shut the fuck up and let me stay my last year here.
fwoc killed me
will that do?

actually i am DAMN UPSET ABOUT IT so all of you should just shut up on this matter.

ps: i want to more valgaraties on this post but i cant bare to

anyway... out of the point.... now that i got all that previous ass shits out of my system.

B BLOCK GOT 3rd FOR GIRLS SWIMMING
i was DAMN SHOCKED la. with my this kind of swimmers and no talents also can beat 2 other blocks. i was already almost the bloody captain begging everyone to take up swimming and knowin that the girls give me the same problems every year. lucky that my senior support is good. manage to persuade nihara, ashley and seow yen to swim for me. my freshies are not fast but i am happy that some of them actually gave me their support and TRIED. to those that did not. i am pissed that you said you are and did not.

my swimming CAPTAIN have to tell me last minute that she not coming due to "obligations". like in the end i cannot sleep cos i was spending the whole night thinkin of my lineup. i hate having to do people's work just because i am slightly obigated to do it. i hate having to do everything.

anyway. i am damn proud that i swam back for medley to think that i never swam back in my entire life before. i dont know how to do the back pluging thingy and i have to start. so i just push back but sill ended up overtaking two guys. the other two blocks where dinah and huilian who you can forget to compare speed given my standard.

i actually can swim and i was not that bad. swiming back is less effort compared to free. in one day i swam all the strokes except for fly.

just now when i was swimming back i kept telling myself that i cannot swim sideways and i looked up twice. on the second time i after i lowered my head i left hand struck the left rope. like CRAP. talk to early.
