episode 197: have u found your wallet yet??

2005-04-09T19:02:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i shouted at momma to get her ass out of the loo in T1A as we were in a rush to report to the examination room. haahaa no worries it was a friendly kind of holler. =)

whoohoo the IT applications in logistics which i picked and memorised inside-out did come out!!! and there were my favourite calculation questions too~! but i couldn't figure out some of the abbreviations tested so i just wrote something which i thought would make sense in the supply chain sector~.

... later i found out that everyone was just as clueless as i was we reckon mr.rashibalan's gonna die out of laughing from marking our ridiculous answers. =)

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

the share-a-thought session here's been kept in pending because i haven't been coming across good little stories. but i really like this one below, hope u enjoy reading it as well. =)

Someone once said... "Wallets are a lot like girls. You really have to take good care of, because if you don't, something might happen..."
I know what he meant. I just lost a wallet, and I just lost my girl. You know, it's the exact same thing. One day, you just realize it's gone. You try to look for it everywhere, even returning to the places where you could have lost it.
You think, and you think hard, only to come upon a grim conclusion: it's really gone. Of course, you can hold on to some hope. Afterall, there have been some very, very lucky and probably blessed souls who got theirs back.
Perhaps you are one of the more unfortunate parties. You sit at home and hope that someone would call, and that you would recover your lost wallet. But as time passes, you know it's still gone, and you come to learn that it's time to let go~.
The first few days, you turn to your friends for support. Some say you'll be ok, others tell you that it was your fault and that you should have been more careful. afew share with you their own experiences. They give you all sorts of advice, none of which you haven't heard before.
You then head outside to search for a new wallet, only to understand that you don't really need a new one. You want the old one that you've lost. No, you don't fancy all the other better-looking ones; you only yearn to get back yours, because of how adequate it is, and because the cards and pictures plus the other stuffs are all in it.
You begin to carry on without a wallet, keeping your money in your pocket instead. You throw away stuffs that you would have held on to if you had your old wallet.
Subsequently, you chance upon a new wallet which you think is appealing and you decide to settle in. You then start filling your new wallet, little by little. It may not feel as comfortable as the old one initially, but it's getting there~.
Following on, you make deposits of your cards and pictures, together with all the others. Soon enough, there are as many items in your new wallet as the old one. And after some time, you feel equally at ease with that.
Finally, you discover that you have almost forgotten you ever had your old wallet. Sure, you still can recall most of the things which you have dropped along with that wallet. But then again, you don't really remember the feeling of lost that once tormented you badly.
That's because the wallet you have lost is no longer yours. And you're no longer clinging on. This new wallet which you have at the moment carries all the what-nots that you need. It is your wallet.
And this time, you tell yourself you're never going to lose this one. =)

good evening masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 196: first paper

2005-04-07T00:04:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

did a quick recap of my studies for TMA in the morning and met dalee and kangming at our bus stop. the three of us joined qiuling and momma at the train station and we marched to T17 next. located the venue of our examination hall and observed the seating plan well. =)

dalee's few pages of summaries got blown away by the wind and we couldn't recover them as they landed on top of some shelter below the corridor which we were standing on level four. =/ when we returned from the ladies i announced loudly to all that my seat number was twenty-four [i like 24; it's an even number and it represents fullness~]... until dalee couldn't take it anymore and almost approached some from the class next door to inform them of where my table was, hehh. =)

realised i forgot to lug along my waterbottle with me to school so i goped two mouthfuls of H20 from momma hee. =) then eileen dear happened to walk past us and i was fast enought to stop her! told her break liao when she slapped hard on my back asking how someone's doing. it isn't ideal to fall in love this season... everybody's putting an end to their relationship, or on the verge of doing so lately. maybe the next'll be a better one.

i used up over two tissue packets throughout the three-hour paper~. while waiting for our scripts to be counted i discussed some of the questions with novita and cheesiang who sat next and behind me.

we're keeping our fingers tightly crossed for our second paper; we've only thirty-six hours to absorb the very thick stack of PDWM notes [nope mr.rashibalan didn't cut down alot of the syllabus...=(] and prepare for our examination. =/

zzz tight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 195: RANTS

2005-04-06T03:14:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

it must be pms-- i had my swim and chewed down a bar of kitkat chunky, but i'm still feeling terrible... =(

to my dearest cp, would it kill if u stop mentioning sm in all ur msges?? i don't like that woman a bit!!!

've been listening to cantonese songs on our winamp [chongy's just added one more to the collection!] because my favourite radio station's getting very commercialised [there're friends who share my sentiments!], with the latest songs repeating over and over again throughout the day~.

night night masie!

episode 194: to the left... or to the right?

2005-04-04T23:37:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

caught the second half of the movie TurnLeft, TurnRight by gigi leung and takeshi kaneshiro on Ch.8.

i would've been touched to tears if i were a couple of years younger~. find the plot alittle too atrocious to be true but am happy the couple got to meet each other again eventually. =)

wheee i've been on par with my revision timetable [for once!] this week! am determined to do well for my semestral papers this time round, blast me pls. =)

Your Birthdate: September 21

Being born on the 21st day of the month (3 energy) is likely to add a good bit of vitality to your life.

The energy of 3 allows you bounce back rapidly from setbacks, physical or mental.

There is a restlessness in your nature, but you seem to be able to portray an easygoing, "couldn't care less" attitude.

You have a natural ability to express yourself in public, and you always make a very good impression.

Good with words, you excel in writing, speaking, and possibly singing.

You are energetic and always a good conversationalist.

You have a keen imagination, but you tend to scatter your energies and become involved with too may superficial matters.

Your mind is practical and rational despite this tendency to jump about.

You are affectionate and loving, but very sensitive.

You are subject to rapid ups and downs.

What Does Your Birth Date Mean?

good afternoon masie!
PS: hate u [!] hate u [!!] hate u [!!!]

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 193: blog-- an online diary; a personal chronological log of thoughts published on a Web page; also called Weblog, Web log

2005-04-03T09:34:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

blog-hopping's one of my favourite pastimes. =) it serves as a channel for me to catch up with how my friends're doing, or find out more of what one's like [the skin which the person employs tells alot bout the character!]. sometimes it gives me the kick of invading into people's privacy because more often than not entries contain inner thoughts which're never meant to be revealed out of the square-boxed thingy commonly known as PC monitor... u know. =)

i enjoy dropping by online diaries that're funny, interesting, and alittle sarcastic [lately if u've noticed i'm practising sarcasm in mine as well~]. i'm only into such which're made of good english [it doesn't matter whether i know the author or not~]... no offence but i feel my standard of angmoh'll get threatened if i'm not selective bout what i read~.

the top 5 weblogs which i make a point to visit at least once every two days--

1 bobo and company's

2 mr. tcy's

3 mr. ato's

4 metro's

5 huibing's

... of course, there're abundance of some other else's too. =)
kudos to the newly crowned ms.singapore 2005, ms.cheryl.tay!!! my family and i kind of supported the contestant right from the start because of her occupation-- she's a vet! and we're all animal lovers at home. =)

... here's to world peace! ~puts up a goofy look~

anyway kc and i were still sms-ing each other @4+am nearing 5... because i did something so sooo retarded over the thriple-W and i couldn't locate the delete icon on the sophisticated website to thrash my post away. finally gave up after pressing the F5 button for 30min~. darn i doubt my entry'd be chosen, urghh... =/

ohiyo masie!

PS: can anybody tell me more on the GOLDEN RATI0???! i tried reading bout the concept through yahoo! search engine but i caught no ball of it. =(

PSS: serene's the no.1 patron here! thks muchie for always leaving a note on the tagboard! =)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 192: forever love

2005-04-01T11:27:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

dad and i accompanied mommy to the hospital for a checkup in the morning. was supposed to help but i turned out more of a hindrance instead-- sinus kept me sneezing non-stop and i used up every piece of tissue paper that we brought along with us; daddy had to walk to the cafeteria to fetch me a cup of hot milo. =(

the three of us settled for lunch at MaxwellRd before we returned home. =) surprise surprise-- i received YET an additional piece of ITP notification letter, this time round via snail mail... whoa~ just how many LOs does mr.lucas.ng plan to set me under??!

ohh well, be my guest. but whatever u do, kindly leave my placement company alone. thankyouverymuchie~.

had a quick shower and dashed to meet tiantianie outside KBox.Clementi~! we decided to pack dinner from my place and smuggle the few tupperwares in the room, hehh. =) actually it's supposed to be another 3girls' night out of ours but... anyway the ktv session was on me since our dearest water manager's always paying for us whenever we go out. =) so we sang and sang and sang, and ate and ate and ate~. i've no idea why i sang out of tune half the time [no that wasn't done deliberately!!!] hee, so paisehh. =)

later we dropped our mics as picture snapping took its place! my cousin sure has a pair of big round lovely eyes!!! these days i've been contemplating over whether i should pick up the contact lenses option... my eyes're getting smaller by the day from the long hours of putting on glasses. =( mmm i may do just that when i graduate from school next year. =)

we left the lounge at around 2330hrs. it was really sweet of tiantianie to make a detour on the cab to ensure i reach home safely. btw she's visiting Bangkok in mid april!

take care masie!

PS: mr.tcy's shifted his bloggie again! from xanga to his own website and then finally to blogspot~! it's a wise choice because blogspot's alot more user-friendly than the other two. =) and his posts're ever so interesting and funny they practically sell like hotcakes. =)

i left a msg on his tagboard saying hi... ohh pretty please, let him catch it before it gets washed away; his blog's very well sought after the viewership can hit up to 500 in just an hour's time!

PSS: cheers-- KBox's got leehom's FOREVER LOVE music video up already!!! it's one of the latest songs which i fancy i think i'll melt if someone were to sing it to me hehh. =)

episode 191: it's all very much about pretense

2005-03-31T23:25:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i dislike going swimming on wednesdays. there'll be loads of primary school kids running around the complex occupying both the big and medium pool. i don't know bout the boys but the girls certainly cause conjestion to the access of shower cubicles in the ladies!

rushed and turned up for CSB test just right on time~. we were to observe a recorded conference over the screen thrice and come up with minutes at the end of the three hours given. my heart raced when mr.momo sat down beside me as we were viewing the meeting halfway. =) he must've wondered what the sheepish smile's for when i turned and flashed him one. =)

dalee and kangming had gotten their notification letter! both of them were placed in logistics companies at BoonLay and Tuas respectively [and we suppose all the freighting centres down our TG road had ceased operation or something huhh~~]. qiuling'd be serving her attachment in some food enterprise at PandanLoop. she's the lucky one because she resides in the area itself. =)

i saw my new LO after the assessment! she's ms.audrey.lai, a pretty lady from the BD team. maybe i'll get to be one of the students under her guidance next year. =)

anyway i'm still keeping quiet on the adjustment made to my ITP posting; it's rather funny putting up a stupid pathetic look, while the foul-mouthed ones're at it again; merrily teasing away and then sarcastically adding on "hiyahh no offence hor... just joking lahh. u know how i wish i could work at the PB too~"

"ohh yea, and ur jaws'd probably drop like mine did when i first read the email huhh huhh, ~rolls eyes~" i badly wanted to listen to the impulsive side of myself and blurt the thought out. but i gather it's better to play along with the ignorants for the time being~.

've u caught the AmazingRace before?? =) it's always too early to tell who has the last laugh isn't it??

...

muahaahaahaa haahaahaa. =)

buhbye masie!
PS: take care b and j~.

episode 190: bookworm winnie!

2005-03-29T23:23:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

wasted's been posted to a firm in town~. he msged to check whether i've found anybody to carry out an exchange with; he offered to help if i haven't done so. i thought that was very kind of him but i'm out of the nonsense already. =)

btw momma's got her placement letter she's been assigned to a retail shop at FarEast! judging from the name of the store we reckoned it's a boutique selling men's wear. good, we can get bobo and jojo to patronise her if that's the case. =)

hehh i read through the whole of my TMS text this afternoon i swear i gonna trample over the other module notes in the next few days~!

sweet dreams masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 189: hip hip hurray

2005-03-28T23:25:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i was up very early this morning. met up with kc to borrow her copy of QA tutorial answers, had lunch at home and left for school next.

michelle's "wish u heng heng" and kc's goodluck smses worked [only the two of them knew bout my PlanB, since i've always believed that plans get misfired whenever too many people come to learn of the matter~]! went to speak to the person at T10. and according to her after flipping through the records another student joy [my classmate in first year~] had applied to work at CapitaLand-Retail too they thought my request form was a duplicate copy of hers so they didn't 've it processed!!!

am extremely glad that things're settled now-- i'd be given a fresh new piece of placement letter, another LO, as well as a slightly better pay in three days' time. that lady even apologised twice to me! phews phews phews... i thought i'd 've to bang on mr.lucas.ng's table to get out of the PB curse. right, all's well that ends well. =) and i'm going to treasure the opportunity given more than anybody else, really, laalaalaa. =)

visited the main library to surf the net next. being a loyal patron of our Biz.IT library situated up the hill, i haven't stepped into the main library before. so i was clueless as to where the PC and xerox zones were. saw s&k though, and we stared at each other~.

the people at the main library're an unfriendly lot; super duper inconsiderate and selfish and all. they grab ur chair and deny the fact when u approach politely. they also bring in mini radios to fill the entire level four with perfect10.

picked up eayy and my photos from the Kodak house later in the evening [aiyohhyohh i shd've stuck to matte instead of selecting glossy finish!!!]~. returned kc her notes and headed home after that. =)

sugar sugar dreams masie!

PS: just want to roll out credits to those who've been giving me support all this while... esp during the ITP shock which i suffered badly from~. those who stood by me when the rest of the world gloated over my misfortune, and those who volunteered to do placement switches with me... u know who u're, thks muchie my friends!

episode 188: my ideal sunday night...

2005-03-28T20:48:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

today's a nobody-wanna-take-neoprint-with-winnie day!!! =(

anyway the group of us three girls and one guy was definitely an odd combination; we don't quite click actually.

Ch.8 played the final episode of the japanese serial DoubleScore at 2300hrs. it was filmed round three years ago, starring two of my favourite jap stars Sorimachi Takashi and Oshio Manabu [awww i say he's got the most perfect looking eyebrows among all the other guys~]. =) my third favourite jap actor's Tsuyoshi Dohmoto from Kinki Kids [he's the more popular one~], hehh. =)

there. my ideal sunday night~. lying on the couch doing nothing but watching nice drama serials [yes, even putting aside my preferred net-surfing~]. =) however i'm going to be deprived of the luxury real soon, 'cos the TV station plans to air a horror show from next week on, ill ill. =(

buhbye masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 187: "wanna go clubbing tonight?"

2005-03-26T23:45:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

tailin rang in the evening to ask if i want to go chiong with them at night. it's really nice of her to give me a tinkle every now and then before they hit the club to party but i had to turn the invite down this time round as...

1. my hair wasn't set on rollers and it looked totally disastrous;

2. i was expecting an urgent mail over the worldwideweb; and

3. i had to embark on my revision for the coming papers~.

hope the group of adults let me tag along again when i'm done with my examinations. =)

goodnight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 186: cheers

2005-03-25T10:38:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

my LO happened to walk past me outside T2241 this morning~. he initiated a hi so i returned him with this very sincere smile of mine. 've to act goody two shoes infront of mr.tang.kah.heong until i hear good news from my PlanB. wonder how long that'll take. btw mr.tang's got extremely long eyelashes for a chinese man!

momma gave me a piece of her mind on my tube top again~. sometimes i feel she really behaves as though she's the one who gave birth to me hehh. =) did this tomato test kangming got from his friend and haahaa! i'm not a flirtatious woman in any way yay yay. =)

stopped yiling and suhfen halfway after lunch with jieying and huixin to grumble bout my ITP. could tell the both of them empathise with poor winnie's situation very much. =/

met tiantian and eileenie for dinner at Swensens CrownPrinceHotel in the evening. =) both of them're my favourite company~! we ordered main courses and ice cream was served at the end of the meal, wheee...=) us three girls just kept on chatting, how nice was that. =)

later tiantianie gave me a ride in a cab and dropped me off at Clementi. surprisingly i bumped into jieying at the central~. we took bus105 back home together. =)

good day masie!

PS: "if u're the sensible one..." tiantian advised me as i got certain things off my chest. right i remembered bossie mentioned something similar in the past as well~. why why...

PSS: and i FINALLY received the call which i had been waiting for eons!!! let out a super duper huge sigh of relief when i saw the name of the caller reflected on the screen of my mobile phone, heehee~.

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 185: whoohoo

2005-03-23T08:34:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

joined my villagefolks at the front of the lecture theatre during BLaw break and flashed them the cabbage that i bought on my way to school~! addy's buddy who was sitting just beside seemed bewilded over the green round thing i was holding, haahaahaa. =)

awww dalee's got another two babies added to the love collection which belongs to her beau and herself. =) initially they only've this stuffed bear created in some shop where they clothed and printed him a birth certificate. his name's russ btw hee...=)

they dared me to hold the mic and sing DreamAlittleDreamOfMe in the MLT while waiting for PD to commence!!! and i did!!! before everybody walked in of course. =)

hohoho gutsy winnie accepts all kinds of dares-- come challenge her. =)

good morning masie!

... Stars shining up above you

Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"

Birds singin' in the sycamore trees

Dream a little dream of me

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you

Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you

But in your dreams whatever they be

Dream a little dream of me

Yes, dream a little dream of me
But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 184: urghh...

2005-03-21T23:54:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

by today morning afew more in our class had gotten their placement letter for ITP this coming april...

novita-- an engineering firm, Ubi;

eileen-- Cycle&Carriage, JurongEast [note she stays in ToaPayoh~];

marina-- a logistics company, Tuas [note she stays in MarineParade~];

guantat-- a retail shop, SimLimSq.

apart from the two scholars novita and shimei who were clearly given the best postings, the rest of us were not very happy with the location, wage or nature of the job. we learnt that mr.eddie.ong [yes that doraemon's friend-lookalike lecturer!!!]'s behind the mess created for all of us he should just watch out for possible assaults from students who're dissatisfied with his arrangement! ~coughs once~

and as if the trauma of the irksome ITP notification wasn't enough, my co-lawyer tried to do me in during the mock trial of our BLaw CA. i don't understand why she resorted to the sabotage-- we're both in the same group and marks're awarded to everybody equally for this particular project. i only know i won't work with people who disregard the value of teamwork again the second time~.

felt like i've been played a prank for the past couple of days... my whole weekend was burnt studying our BLaw report and making amendments to the sixteen long pages of stuff [while someone was so worn out after attending her nephew's bday party blahhblahhblahh she couldn't rush her part of the summary out as planned~]... i didn't expect additional credits to be placed under my name but i thought the least i should be presented was a word of thanks or something~...

so silly winnie burst into tears when we left the room. momma dalee and kangming had a hard time cheering me up. in the end they promised to withdraw their alliance against the burping queen for the day if i were to stop crying. awww i love them three to the skies...=)

being a true blue camera whore, i'm always seen the first settling myself in a relatively good position, removing my glasses at the same time before the small rectangular gadget goes snap. but that wasn't the case today. in fact i stood at the back and mr.ds said he couldn't quite see my head. retarded~. so everybody tried to shift me to the front but to no avail because i simply refused to move.

how funny the semester started with me falling head over heels for the au courant man while the others disliking him to the max but ended in reverse afew months later. even shimei gave her comment that he's not that bad afterall actually, ill ill.

serena forwarded me an email one week back on the promotion of my favourite ice cream bar for the month of march where sundaes're sold at an incredible pass of three bucks from two to five in the afternoon.

... we wanted to pop in Swensens Suntec but it was already nearing 5pm by the time i was out of school...=(

nightnight masie!

PS: michelle spent a bomb getting her hair colored i think she now resembles those models in the magazines!!!

episode 183: motified

2005-03-19T23:39:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

just when i thought everything was doing perfect in my world...

...

kc mentioned that the ITP notifications for her class were mailed out according to merits. didn't expect mine to reach me so soon though all of us had been dutifully checking our school accounts everyday for the past one week.

on the fateful morning i sat infront of the computer screen in ultimate disbelief [as to where i was posted to~], with my jaws dropped forty-five degrees sharp. i blinked and rubbed my eyes hard. clicked on the refresh icon and took a good look of the placement letter again. pulled chongy out of his room to help triplecheck as well. needless to say, there wasn't any mistake with the electronic mail--

Name of the Student : LEE WEI NING WINNIE

Adm No : 0305060

Class : DBA/FT/2A/11

ohh, what could ever go wrong huhh.

was awfully upset throughout the rest of the day... everyone was like "omg" "man..." "wah biangz" when i made the announcement over the phone that i've been sent to this very well talked about organisation in school.

only shimei and i were among the first batch of students to've received the order from mr.lucas.ng. the rest in our group felt kind of uneasy because the nature of both our attachments're rather extreme [my charsiewpau's been positioned in a reputable firm at ShentonWay!!!]. the girls took turns to console me... dalee and qiuling in the afternoon, momma in the evening, and kc shimei when night fell~. i really appreciate their efforts... but nothing seemed to be able to lift my lousy mood up a teeny weeny bit...=(

gawd~ my dad pays the school $1k+ for my fees every semester without fail. over my dead body'll i clean shit and drive monorail in a floral shirt [that's what the lecturers always highlight whenever they bring up the corporation!!!] for my ITP k.

PlanA was a total flop and i hate ms.ok for pointing out the other day that there were sufficient number of logistics related placements to go around. the in-charge of the allocation this year had better not let me find out who he or she is, else i'll get rough with the fella straight out. better make sure i've got a gunnysack ready in my bag from monday on.

buhbye masie...

PS: shocked shocked shocked

PSS: it's gonna be a long looong zzz-less weekend

episode 182: the review

2005-03-18T23:56:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

my goodness eileenie's so zai she said hi by shouting my name down from level three of T21 as dalee and i were walking up the slope from the basement! =)

we got mr.rashibalan into deep shit during PD-- the group of us kept talking and joking around throughout the entire sixty minutes, obviously oblivious to the presence of the head of department who was observing the lecture silently from behind. =/ apologised to mr.rashibalan when lesson was over; he told us it was no fault of ours since we didn't notice the lady, afterall a quiet group doesn't appear genuine at all... mmm we still felt pretty bad for doing our favourite lecturer wrong. =(

saw kc during lunch and she showed me her ITP placement letter proudly! wow she's been assigned to serve her attachment in an engineering firm in the InternationalBusinessPark. that's sooo near our place i tell u. =)

had QA practical test after that. alas i didn't manage to finish my final sentence. boohoo. =/

while heading towards MLT11 for TMA lecture someone creeped up my back and gave us all a fright. guess who was the mischievous being-- ms.ok ~rolls eyes~. anyway we didn't carry our text with us as we thought we'd bon class to sum up our BLaw stuff. but it suddenly dawned to us that it was the last lecture of the module [because we've no school on good friday the following week~] and ms.ok's usually very generous with the release of the many relevant areas of emphasis that we've to focus on for the semetral paper. how could we say no to the kind offer??

grabbed a bite at fc6 when lecture was over. momma wanted to say hi to tallie u see. =) tallie's a part time employee of the mini snack joint in fc6. we all gather he measures up to app 1.95m vertically, and we've been noticing him around-- momma has a thing for guys who're real tall, haahaahaa [boy she's sooo going to strangle me for this~]!

the six of us rounded up at a bench to discuss more on our BLaw project. yvonne and i were delegated to be the laywers representing the plaintiffs [she's with Songkut Travel while i'm working for IKAT~~]. loads of changes were implemented to what which had already been done so far. =(

rushed off to look michelle up for dinner later at 8pm! =) we settled for SecretRecipe and the ambience at night's fabulous they've small little candles lit and placed on every table! awww... so romantic...=)

miss wang ordered chicken cordon bleu while miss lee had grilled BBQ chicken with herb rice, i say it tasted perfect. marvellous. =) cakes were our dessert; baked cheese for my chummy chum and oreo cheese for myself, heehee. =) michelle said the meal was on her because she's just received her bonus, hehh. =)

greeted sabrina at the information counter after that. =) didn't manage to catch the final episode of haomeili's show, but i was sure it's a happy ending for everybody so i was put much at ease. =)

as mentioned before today'd be the last day of my formal daily blogging... afew reasons to that... one of which's time... i've trouble affording time to stitch all wonderful events neatly together much as i badly want to share with u guys on how my day went... u know...=/

and there's another issue which i'd like to address on... it has come to my parents' attention that their daughter's seeing a guy... and some of my friends're trying to pry confessions out of me as well~... mmm i know u're all concerned bout me but seriously, i don't wish to comment anything regarding matters of the heart... until i'm certain i've found my mr.left [right sounds so conventional~!] i don't need things to be high in profile... hee not to worry if i get hitched i'll definitely broadcast the news wide to the other side of the globe, that's one for sure. =)

so till then i'd really appreciate it if u give me a break on the subject... thks for ur understanding. =)

take care masie!

PS: happy happy bday dada!!! =)

PSS: look out for a change in blogskin the next entry~!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 181: wanna rack ur brains alittle??

2005-03-18T22:10:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

Study the line below. E is the midpoint of AB and F is the midpoint of CD. Length of AB = Length of CD. AD = 22cm and BC = 5cm.

a) Find the total length of AB and CD.

b) Find the length of EF.

it was taken from an examination paper. meant for the P6 kids in kevan's tuition agency. but the eight of us [qiuling momma dalee kangming guantat andrew kevan as well as urs truly~~] who attempted the above couldn't arrive at a solution proper. our conclusion-- a diagram was missing. either that or there could be an error somewhere.

met up with momma early in the morning for a round of QA windows revision. i like working on QA practical. =) it's so different from QA theory-- u need more brain juice for the latter~.

during lunch we agreed to give mr.raj-y [that's what soowei calls him!]'s lecture a skip. had to rush our BLaw CA out. =(

"hiyahh we go also no use. he dozes and she zzz-s," momma pointed at kangming and winnie indifferently.

after spending three hours in the library we turned up for BLaw lecture [learnt bout Intellectual Property-- copyright trademarks patents blahh blahh blahh today! and i find the topic rather interesting~~]. posed mrs.moreira questions with regards to our CA when she called it a day. were glad we caught her hints. =)

popped into the library again to assemble all the points we had. everyone was assigned afew of them to elaborate on individually by the following day, so stressed out. =/

had dinner with kenny at CafeGalilee [haahaa i wasn't quite ready to be defeated by the mathematical problem on top; was only willing to give the case a close when our doctor-to-be affirmed that it couldn't be solved~~] and then we hit KBox JEC [it's ladies' night @Kbox every thursday!!!], laalaalaa. =) sang and sang and sang, hee the both of us didn't know that we enjoy listening to so many songs in common...=)

sweet dreams masie!

episode 180: so much fun

2005-03-16T23:06:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

we were in our corporate wear today!!! and i put on my new pair of heels to school, hee. =) dalee and i were almost late for our last EPI lesson as we were both stucked in a bad jam at Clementi. =/

mrs.moreira taught us how to go about shaking hands and exchanging namecards with associates... the right way of holding wine glasses and minding our manners when boarding a taxi. =) it was kind of sad-- all of us enjoyed the module truckloads plus aircraft-loads. =(

were granted early release from class and we marched over to fc6 for quick lunch followed by a final run-through of our CSB presentation. =) saw eileen and walked her to MLT12!

momma freaked out the moment we reached the tatami room so we took turns to calm her down while dalee made some amendments to our name plates speedily. =) were called in early as the first group was done with their stuff fast~. i was lucky to've my seat just adjacent to that of mr.momo's; moved my chair nearer to him discreetly as the conference commenced, shhh. =)

momma dalee kangming cheesiang and myself broke into laughter when the meeting ended. =) we thought we did well and mr.momo's evaluation for our performance was a very positive one, hurray!!! shot dalee a super duper deadly look when mr.momo commented she's articulate and all. but as soon as he finished the statement he turned and mentioned i was not bad too [yippee!!!]~. flashed him the most angelic smile of mine to say thks, hehh. =) btw mr.momo disclosed to us that there'll be at least two distinctions coming from our group, wow wow wow~!

later we discussed the BLAW CA with eileen and yvonne, split the questions up choppe-choppe-ly and shifted my butt together with my village folks' to KBox Clementi next. =) we decided to flag a cab down-- economies of scale could be realised since the place was just two bus stops away from our school; taking a bus'd actually cost slightly more, hee. =) the driver was alittle impatient as to where exactly to drop us off though, because we were all too high to bother bout him. =)

kangming's really nice he let me check in with my card! and this time round i remembered my lanyard, yay yay. =) so we removed our shoes, jumped up the couch and hollered into the mics as usual, whoohoo~. of course we didn't forget to ask for plenty of refills for our tidbits either [had to change the tone of my voice each time i picked up the internal phone~~], haahaahaa. =) took some pictures too!

had sooo much fun today, laalaalaa...=)

sugar sugar dreams masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 179: simply amazing!

2005-03-14T19:14:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

today's an absolutely lucky day! while handing our answer scripts back to us ms.ok announced to the class that she loves my handwriting [yes it probably won't turn marking papers late at night a dread as the font's big enough~~]. =) and i'm truly overjoyed with my grade i swear i haven't gotten anything good as that for a long looong time!! totally unbelievable. =) quickly msged kc to inform my best friend of the good news. =)

lunch was in PizzaHut at fc5-- DBA 2A-11 decided we'd make use of our PTN endowment fund [it's an useful sum of $6.50 per person presented by the director so each class could organise a gathering every year and spend some time as a whole outside school~~]. =) eileen and yvonne sat together with momma dalee kangming and myself [btw the six of us'd be working on our BLAW project collectively. blast us success please thank you~~] .
i suggested ordering a setC meal for us village folks and we marched over to the buffet counter next. =) loaded our bowls with soup and salad [i don't take in raw veggies; i walked away with lots of fruits instead~~], happy! =)

were caught in awe when the person placed two pitchers of iced pepsi down on our table [by right we were only entitled to one jar of the drink~~]. =) of course we kept silent bout it, maybe the other was on the house because we all looked thirsty or something, haahaa. =)

so we munched and chewed and gobbled, and were all very full after the meal, yay yay. =) momma and i bought folders [hers was pink while mine was purple~~] to slip our EPI reports into since we were just outside Popular bookstore~.

had BLaw tutorial next and we saw mr.momo during our break!!! awww he waved at us from afar and we all went mad [guess who was the most berserk one!], haahaahaa...=) i insisted he was only waving at me and nobody else, then momma dalee argued and said otherwise while kangming shook his head, hohoho...=)

conducted a meeting for our CSB roleplay when lesson was over; for our darling mr.momo's sake we've got to make it a flawless act, hehh. =)

good evening masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 178: day at leisure

2005-03-14T07:43:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

was dragged out of bed by my siblings-- there was a call for me from eileen dear. our makeover photos were ready for collection. met her 3.30pm in town and visited IG. =)

we took such a long time to pick our choice [because several pictures looked nice at first glance but not really after that~~]. in the end eileen bought all her prints to save the trouble~. we also selected the most adequate shot [with the help of the staff there~~] to be blown up as part of the package. =)

later we learnt that the photographer's actually one of the managers of the makeover studio, to think we believed he was on some form of freelance employment since he's very young, easygoing bout stuff and all [in the end i goped more photos than what i was supposed to!!!], haa. =)

had dinner at KentRidge with my family besides aunty.lai and cousin.bryan, whoohoo!

completed my report at night~. missed part of the japanese serial on Ch.8 when i was out of the shower, urghh...=/

ohiyo masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 177: what close call

2005-03-13T16:41:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

had dim sum with daddy mommy, and we gave the chinese restaurant 5stars over 5stars for its appealing food and excellent services~! i don't mind picking the tab so long as i've some spare cash at hand, since it brings endless of smiles to both my parents whenever i offer to do so. hehh, guess i'd be equally tickled if i were to've a daughter who's just as sensible [haa i see some of u gonna throw up this moment!]. =)

decided to shop for groceries after our meal~. saw jiewei from afar and pointed him out to mom as we were walking out of FairPrice. boy he has lost much weight to the Singapore Armed Forces [not that he was plump or what to begin with~~]!

ohh i should've pretended i didn't spot him-- mommy was full of praises for the NTU Biz scholar wannabe [another bossie waiwai in the making??!], i knew what she was up to and managed to drag her away before she shot him the very awkward question~.

yes mom i'm a sucker for intelligent men but habitual library-goers aren't ur daughter's cup of tea [guys at the grand age of twenty-plus should be a hundred and one time more street-savvy... and they certainly're rather questionable if they're still seen holding comic books in public~]. besides ... ... ...

EPI report typing at home took up the rest of my day. =/

zzz tight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 176: happening evening!

2005-03-12T15:22:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

mr.rashibalan fixed the row of us with the most complicated question during PD tutorial, but as usual the assignment was settled brilliantly in a short amount of time...=)

lunch was with jieying and huixin [btw congratulations to all my friends who've done well for their A's! =)] at fc4, had japanese bento set, yummy yummy~!

gave in to zzz bugs during mr.raj's lecture [haa, like what's new~~]. BLaw was cancelled so my pals and i decided to hit the library for an hour of free access~. met up with alicia for our BD sign-up next-- it was sooo chaotic in the small tutorial room because most of us were without projectmates from the Mktg side~... and there were people [guys to be exact~~] who behaved as though they were selling veggies in the wet market they attempted to recruit members by 'lelong'-ing here and there~!

some of the more refined us began filling the whiteboard with our contacts in [little~] hope to complete our respective teams. it wasn't until a lecturer walked in that we heaved a huge sigh of relief-- he told us we could go ahead with the registration, since the demand for MM students was greater than supply~...

the bunch of us then proceeded merrily to join the queue outside and got our forms endorsed-- alicia [we found out she's actually addy's buddy!!!] prisca momma and myself'd be in grp24 [whoohoo that's one of my favourite numbers~~]! =) while dalee and kangming formed grp23, and shimei qiuling were given grp25. =) hope we all end up in the same BD class next year, blast us...=)

on my way home i bought heels for the mock meeting next week, like them alot, yay yay. =)

goodnight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 175: laalaalaa

2005-03-10T01:21:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

had my weekly dose of chlorine damage on my precious tresses before heading for CSB tutorial. =) was called up by mr.momo a couple of times to answer some of the questions in our book [no he wasn't trying to make things difficult for me; just that winnie's a spontaneous kid in his clsss haa~~], yay. =)

we were to round ourselves up in 5s again [yes yes yes, our very much hated no.5 in the context of projectwork~~] for a role-play CA the week after~. managed to rope chee.siang in our village troop and together we form the toilet association [had hengheng-ly picked the outline on Leuters' Toilet Accessories and Supplies Pte Ltd among the other different scenarios to work on~~]. =)

so we decided on our individual posts next-- kangming'd be our Chairperson cum GeneralManger, cheesiang's the Secretary [he volunteered himself for that~!] cum FinancePersonnel, dalee's the MarketingExecutive and janice's the SalesExecutive. =) while urs truly's the PurchasingExecutive, hiahh hiahh hiahh. =)

had our ITP briefing after that. mr.conrad de souza's a very funny man~. we laughed alot throughout the talk, hohoho. =) was specifically instructed by both momma and dalee to chuck aside all my skimpy wear when we were addressed on the issue of how to deal with harassments in the course of our job attachment~. they also expressed their empathy towards my employer to be they thought the person'll most probably be one of my victims instead of the other way round... whatever lahh. =)

attended another session on pre-ITP by mr.lucas ng and then went home with qiuling. =) we realised our bus arrives fast whenever we walk to the stop together~.

night night masie!

PS: most of the songs in B.A.D's new album're not bad~!

PSS: guang.liang's latest collections're just as nice too; i like the two below in particular...=)

episode 174: professor lee's revision know-hows!

2005-03-08T23:19:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

woke up early to study for my PD CA!

when it comes to theory-based subjects i've my own way to beat boring revisions. =)

well i employ this 40.study-60.resty method which i call it, such that i'll reward myself with a break, either by shutting my eyes or loitering around in the house after studying for a short while [my attention span isn't long u see~~]... be it presenting daedae with a catchy jingle followed by a silly dance, checking out how the breakouts on my face're doing, or opening the fridge depositing whatever junk i can find down my oesophagus [i esp love this particular one which reads XXX ice cream in the freezer~!], hehh. =)

when that won't work, i'll pack all my barang-barang and carry them with me to a quiet cafe [either the one near my place or at TC's~~] before i move on with the agony of mugging~. i like to order stuffs to eat and drink, and i allow myself to savour a teeny weeny bit of whatever which's on the table when i finish, say 6pages of my notes~. it helps keep the motivation going, laalaalaa. =)

disclaimer: both above could cause extreme consumption in time [tick-tock tick-tock~~]. parties who're interested in giving the practise a shot're advised to plan their revision timetable real well ahead~.

so i had lunch and skipped my way to school after that. =) BLaw was alright. had PD test and wheee-- all the topics which i selected [with much consideration~~] did come out!!! decided i'd drop certain chapters since i was running behind time [see disclaimer~~] and i thought mr.rashibalan might just as well follow suit in view of the TMS paper the week before, heehee. =)
AND, for rosy matters I PASSED MY EV________ AT THE VERY FIRST ATTEMPT i think chongy's gonna be so proud of me~!!!

sugar sugar dreams masie!
PS: pitiful winnie has been completely ostracised by her dearest village folks-- momma doesn't want me as her daughter, period~... dalee doesn't acknowledge me as her xiaolee anymore... rather, the both of them've formed an anti-croaking alliance to fight the burping queen and bro's on their side, boohoo. =(

episode 173: charred-charmander

2005-03-08T00:05:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

lunch in school today was definitely a horrendous experience-- i had a bowl of super duper spicy dried prawn mee from stall9 of fc6~... i swear i had told the uncle explicitly that i wanted mine without chilli, but i guess somehow generation gap overcame our conversation and he mistook my request for extra sambal.

(-_- ''')

so i transformed into a charmander and had to gulp down my grass jelly drink instantly to save my burning throat~. when one glass didn't help kangming got me a second one, oooh...=/

eventually i ran the noodles twice under momma and my soup, and i managed to finish the whole bowl of them ~applauds~. burped, or rather croaked the loudest croak ever [even i was stunned by myself~~] in the library after that! luckily giraffe stepped in afew seconds later, phew. =) hurry! send my name for Guinness World Record and i won't disappoint u for sure, hiahh hiahh hiahh. =)

on a serious note we've to register for our BLAW CA project in groups of five come the following monday... by now all of us're more or less familiar with each other in class it's going to be hard since we move around in herds of four and we don't want to be separated from our own gang. =( to add it on there's another concern of ours-- FRs, ill. =(

taught rachel how to go about working on Vectors problems when i was back at home~. frankly speaking i was rather impressed with myself for being able to solve most of the questions... u know how bad my memory can turn at times, hehh. =)

sweet dreams masie~!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 172: makeover 2005

2005-03-07T08:13:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

went for a makover session with candy and eileenie~! it was quite a last minute decision made, since both my cousins thought they'd visit a makeover parlour as they needed to get their face and hair done for a wedding dinner in the evening. =)

i made sure i stayed clear of water the night before to keep my face from any unneccessary bloating~. was the first to reach IG [the name of the studio~~] so i proceeded to choose my outfits and settled on the stool to've my face and hair fixed. =)

communicated with the makeup artist [she's a winnie too~! but i carried another name with me when the appointment was made...] before she slapped the very thick and heavy foundation on my face and we discussed what was best for me [i'm a person who knows what i want for myself; i never enter a salon with a bo-chup attitude-- slip onto the chair, close my eyes and allow the hairdresser to do as he or she deems fit, no that's not my style~~]. hehh i also took the chance to pinch afew application tips out of her. =)

unfortunately i got distracted when candy and eileen walked in, and the next thing i knew, whoa i had blue eyeshadow above my eyes [boy the color happens to be at the bottom of my list of favourite shades~~]!!!

"u could've used brown u know..." i protested. winnie explained saying the color was to match my outfits and assured me that the result wouldn't be anything too appalling, oh well~...

anyway winnie did a great job for my brows and my hair later on, which compensated for the sense of loss that i was feeling. =) was really satisfied with my hair in particular, and i'm full of admiration for stylists who can grasp what i'm looking for and help put it into reality, since i won't compromise when it comes to the curls on my mane [yea i went there with my hair flat, showed her some photos over my mobile so she could work on it and... ta-dahh~~], hohoho. =)

i took my first few individual shots while waiting for eileen to be done~. pulled out the choker which i was given [realised i looked weird in it!] before we posed for our pair shots, whoohoo! =)

changed into my second outfit after that and winnie was nice to offer a touch up for my hair. =) eileen and i then sneaked into one corner to snap pictures of ourselves using my phone while candy was doing her solo, heehee. =)

after i completed the other half of my package i made a dash for the makeup remover immediately [oooh zits're sooo going to appear on my face the next day~~]. was delighted when they said i could leave with my hairdo intact, yay yay. =)

my two cousins had to pay a sum of money on top of everything else to walk away with their make-up on, but i think the lady at the cash machine forgot to charge that to their bill when we made our way out, hehh. =)

the three of us patronised my favourite neoprint machine next [yes yes yes, the one with a couch inside~!]. =) teng said my hair was the nicest but i thought eileen's one was equally fabulous. =) anyway i nearly fainted when i found out eileen was given FIVE complimentary shots [while i had only TWO extra ones!] and another additional backdrop [my goodness that woman had THREE in all!!!] the photographer obviously didn't make it for his mathematics or something, ill...=/

morning masie!

PS: my new ez-link card costed me 15bucks-- 8 for the card itself and 7 for the stored value, urghh!!!

PSS: goped the following from somebody's bloggie...=)

"... Falling in love is meant to be the sweetest thing that can happen on earth. To have someone by your side when u're feeling down, someone for you to share your sorrows and happiness with.. Close friends can do likewise too, however the feeling seems entirely different. When you realise you're not meant for each other, the relationship comes to an end...

What happens next?? It varies. Some become good friends, while others go back to being strangers. Strangers sound so scary, but it does happen in real life.. And there are others who like to do comparisons too.."--

episode 171: do u like scallops and chilli crab??

2005-03-05T17:12:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

went to bed at 4+am as i spent half the night cramming TMS stuff in my headie. =/

mr.rashibalan's really cute-- he confessed to us saying he's so mean and sharp with words he's surely gonna get it when he reaches the other world in time to come, heehee. =)

soowei joined us for lunch as wati qiuling and shimei were studying for the TMS CA at home~. we all turned up for QA tutorial empty-handed as we had kept ourselves fully occupied with our TMS revision for the past few days. thank goodness mr.raj's an understanding man he even released us earlier so we could prepare for the paper after school. =) btw i finally caught up with my QA practical i actually finished my assignment ahead of the rest, hehh. =)

so i scanned through my TMS lecture notes for the final time before the test commenced [the pile of them's still very thick even though all the redundant pages were torn away!!!]~. was the second last student to leave the MLT, with momma qiuling and shimei waiting for me outside along the stairway.

a round of bitching took place after that-- we studied 7good whole looong chapters for the test but were only popped with questions related to the first three; we could've concentrated better by giving the revision of the other four topics a miss, urghh~...

but then again i guess ms.ok had meant well. if we had been tipped off on that previously i doubt any of us'd touch the rest of the text until our study week starts~. anyway i'm beginning to find TMA more and more interesting now my pals believe winnie's gone quirky or something, gee. =)

right, enough of school let's talk bout something else. =) dinner was a feast at ChinHuat Live Seafood, whoohoo whoohoo~... company included uncle and aunty.lai, uncle.alfred and aunty.angie, cousin bryan and tiantian, besides my lovey dovey parents. =) was very excited when the fantastic chilli crab and the really huge white scallops were brought to us; the other dishes were equally ulahh-lahh, so all of us ate a whole lot, mama-mia~.

the adults entertained themselves with their all-time favourite mahjong after the meal, while uncle.wor presented mommy and i with popsicles as we watched the 9pm drama on ch.8 [of late i've been speaking broken mandarin just like simon in the show, calling kangming 'bro~' in school loudly at the same time~~] at tiantianie's place. =)

the three of us reached home after 1am~. realised i've dropped one of my pouches somewhere earlier...=( there were afew coins together with my newly topped up adult ez-link card in it, ill ill ill...=(

good evening masie~.

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 170: what's ur seduction style?

2005-03-03T23:53:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

Your Seduction Style: The Natural

You don't really try to seduce people... it just seems to happen.
Fun loving and free spirited, you bring out the inner child in people.
You are spontaneous, sincere, and unpretentious - a hard combo to find!
People drop their guard around you, and find themselves falling fast.

What Is Your Seduction Style?

night night masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 169: the many sides of winnie lee

2005-03-03T22:34:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

the usual bus which i take to school arrived two minutes earlier in the morning and being the just-on-the-dot person that i always am [if it's not work-related issue i usually gain a marvelous sense of accomplishment within myself whenever i adhere to the appointment or arrive somewhere promptly on time; i don't like to reach early because it means i'd 've to wait... you know~~], i waved buhbye to the vehicle from afar~. while looking out for the next one i entertained the playful kitten down the block. =)

EPI was the first lesson of the day and i was surprised when mrs.moreira picked kangming and i to conduct a role-play.

"shall we get winnie to be the one doing the harassing??" she asked, and laughter came from those seated around me. because mrs.moreira had found the right person for the job-- i've quite a flair in acting, especially roles which're extreme in nature. =) we were to learn how to deal with sexual harassment which takes place in the office u see, and our beloved lecturer wanted to highlight to us that victims involved in such cases need not neccessary've to be those of the female gender. men too, can suffer from the above at times~.

we also discussed bout the different types of personality that each of us possesses. why certain people click so well although they've only met each other for the first time... while others remain mere associates even after being aquainted for decades~. according to mrs. moreira it all boils down to the good old saying, birds of a feather flock together~.

to prove her point, we carried out this bird talk thingy where we selected five adjectives out from a pool of words which best describe ourselves. we were then instructed to narrow the list down to just two of them, and sorted ourselves into the category that we fall in. there were peacocks [the very outgoing group of people~~], eagles [the loud ones who carry leadership attribute~~], doves [the silent peace observers~~], as well as the owls [the systematic workers~~]. =)

true enough, the thesis was very accurate-- nadia and company're pure peacocks, while there're mixed breeds over at our side. =) we were also told that identical traits're shared among many couples~. the statement spoke for itself when dalee and kangming mentioned they're peacock-dove and peacock-eagle respectively, interesting ehh?? =)

andrew and i belong to the very contradicting combination of dove and eagle [i held on to practical and disciplined, ohh yes i did~~]. dalee kept nodding her head because she thinks i've got a serious case of split personality [i can be the ohh-so-sweet and demure lady one moment and then a super duper threatening ah-lian the next~~], haahaahaa. =) btw momma's another rare fusion [peacock cum owl~!] she's the exact opposite of her daughter no wonder we don't see eye to eye with each other all the time, hohoho!!!

novita and peishan brought the class through handling dismissals, while kangming and i figured our hilarious plot quickly and acted on the spot. =)

mrs.moreira then went on to share with us afew bad encounters she had ever came across during the days when she was practising as a lawyer. we found out there's sooo little which we can do when we've insufficient evidence against sexual harassments, be it the mental kind of distress or physical abuse in any form, ill. =/

during lunch we realised that wati had videotaped what i did to kangming earlier via her phone!!! urghh-- talk about the tight security enforced on mobile handsets these days~! anyway our fearless class chairlady refused to sell me the file despite countless of pleading~.

we had our CSB CA after that. were to work out an office memo in pairs~. dalee and i communicated secretly to doublecheck the format of our respective letters, shhh...=) when momma and i submitted our script i pointed out proudly to mr.momo that the professional-looking signature located at the bottom left corner came from my writing, hee. =)

attended an hour of my chinese class before joining my classmates at the RFID talk in MLT12~. it was compulsory for all SupplyChain students to be present, but the turn-out was something like 70% working adults and [only~~] 30% of the rest of us~! ms.ok had invited many big shots in the logistics field so we could mingle around with the guests and perhaps conduct some networking at the same time, ill ill. =/ was dozing off my seat when the director of SB made a loud entrance and settled down just diagonally behind me...=(

the refreshment reception arranged by mr.rashibalan got us all so high and perked up~! it was aww... certainly worth every minute of the wait-- the food on the table looked yummilliously inviting!!! under the witty-auntified leadership of [ehem~!] urs truly, we managed to load our plates successfully with beehoon siewmai tuna sandwiches coconut tarts mini pizzas and cream puffs [ohh the cream puffs were sooo lovely they were cleared off the silver tray first!!!], hiahh hiahh hiahh. =)

the seven of us then zoomed off somewhere at the back to gobble up what we took, and we each had another two more full helpings at least [hehh we thought we'd help gope qiuling's share since she wasn't around~~]~. mr.rashibalan was delighted to receive wonderful feedback from the lot of us on the food he ordered. =)

i've officially taken on the title of SSQ [siahh-suay queen~~] from my momma-- kangming and dalee told the rest bout the story on how i slurped 6cups of iced milo down my throat the other day, so funny. =)

in view of the high calorie intake for the day all of us decided to take a slow walk to the train station when school ended. somebody suggested a steamboat buffet outing after our examinations next time, hurray~!

goodnight masie!

PS: i'm getting senile-- couldn't recall what i wanted to get from PopularBookstore after circling the place for more than half an hour. =/

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 168: brand new me!!!

2005-03-02T23:57:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i underwent a long recharge of endorphins in the pool after the market visit with mom. =) and my tan's back, wheee~!

had a quick lunch during BLaw break and PD lecture proceeded on just fine. =) got home early as i wanted to learn how to cook the white shells mommy and i came across in the morning. =) am glad my culinary skills're still pretty much intact these days. =)

met up with kenny for a short while after that and returned to my place before the vector control men executed their large-scale pesticide spraying act around the estate i'm staying in. =) there had been a substantial rise in the number of dengue fever cases reported recently and i found out from the notice put up on the ground floor that culex mosquitoes [which're active at night and'll start biting app from 6.30pm-6am~~]'re the culprits behind the red swollen bites found on our skin every night!!!

zzztight masie!

PS: qiuling was absent from school as she wasn't feeling well. hope she recovers soon. =)

PSS: gone with the depressing days, u see a fresh winnie now!!! an even more confident and undaunted winnie, a very wild and curious winnie, as well as an equally motivated winnie~!

i love the pleasant me so~. do u?? =)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 167: introspective monday

2005-03-01T11:18:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

woke up with an astounding supply of energy within myself, which was something good. =)

met my village folks at the train station. surprisingly we all turned up in black tops and tees, whoohoo~! i adore telepathy; it bears such unanimous behaviour among beings yet we can't make up the unidentified force behind the production, ohh well...=)

witty winnie began giving names to her pals and herself, from blackie-one to four according to the date of birth system, hiahh hiahh. =)

TMS was a short one~. ms.ok mentioned she's got loads to work on our ITP matters, and decided to dismiss us early so we could revise for our coming tests and stuff. she could've simply called off the tutorial in advance since it only consisted of doublechecking our CA scores~.

we got back our TMS report. were satisfied with the marks received. =) btw our PD report was rather well graded too, yay yay. =)
saw eileen at fc6 during lunch~. boy she was in full make-up she said she has a function in the evening. =)

later momma and i managed to meet up with one of our BD grpmates. alicia seems like a nice lady, petite polite and all. =) we felt so much relieved after that we trust our cooperation'd be a successful one. =)

hit the library next. and a well-groomed guy who held with him a stack of PR-related notes sat next to us on the couch, whoa~. i've always wondered how different things'd be like if i took up the course on PublicRelations instead of what i'm doing now. undoubtedly i'd be more people-savvy since i'd 've picked up networking and crisis handling, u know... not that i regretted my choice to enter a polytechnic and engage in business studies-- in life we gain some and lose some through certain decisions we make. =) life's got to be like that, so we can advance intellectually and emotionally, and then turn the way which we should be~.

better draw u back to where i left my day. =) combed high and low the magazine corner for the publication which i read half-way the other day to no avail, ill. dalee decided to borrow a book from the ChickenSoup series, so funny we didn't know we had to create a PIN before we carry out any loaning of the materials in the library given our second-year status in school. =)

i believe there're many year3 seniors out there who're just as ignorant on that as well. u see, most of us visit the library to rush projects or surf the net in the PC zones, some discuss and talk aloud across the study area or in between the bookshelves... the others catch a wink or read in the magazine corners, while afew unwind by positioning themselves infront of the TV sets watching whatever films which're available in the vicinity. there's only one machine doing loan transactions in the whole Biz.IT library, and u hardly notice any queue there, really. =)

ooops paisehh i got out of point again... yes in the end we approached the librarian at the counter for help, who gave us the instructions coldly~.
everybody thought i was indecently dressed for the day as i wanted to get attention from mr.ds during BLaw. ~rolls eyes~ soowei who just acquired ultra bright hair highlights over the weekend wanted to sign up for the amazing race thingy and asked whether we could form a group. we all said no thks firmly, haahaahaa. =) my school's a bigtime copycat of the various TV progammes around. i remember the most recent event came from the Idols series. and it's AmazingRace now... what's next~?

tutorial presentation was a flop-- we weren't able to explain "Non-negotiable" cheques correctly much to mr.sim's dismay, boohoo. =/

it was pouring like mad when class was over. rushed to town and settled down for hi-tea with huibing at GelareCafe. =) we just chatted and chatted, it feels great to talk to a good friend, especially when we don't get to see each other often. =)

the both of us then strolled over to Esprit at Wheelock-- they were 'vin a sale for the label in all the outlets. =)

returned home to realise that i had carelessly left something important out in the morning, yikes!!!

buhbye masie.

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 166: S.O.S!!!

2005-02-27T14:47:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

mommy made us pizza for lunch yesterday!!! rachel baked alot of cookies too. =)

spent some time reading through my TMS notes~. we were to attend a dinner at an ulu-ated place in the evening; i racked out my electronic hair straightener and posed as mom's hair stylist for the day, hehh. =)

dressed up choppe-choppe-ly after that. heehee rachel and i agreed that uncle.li should go trim his brows soon~. anyway the food was quite alright, there wasn't any roasted piggie though. =) and we laughed so hard at this someone who lip-synched a couple of songs, hohoho!

was badly beaten by diarrhoea when we got back home. kept running in and out of the loo, ill. =/

sweet dreams masie!

PS: i'm currently suffering from an excessive hair fall and yesterday's damage was especially severe... has anybody got any prescription that might help prevent further wreckage?? =/

PSS: "... i muz giv u a treat.. u know i v happy i getting my bonus next wk..." aww... michelle's sms absolutely made my day man~! =)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 165: T.G.I.F

2005-02-25T23:56:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

mr.rashibalan seemed to've become even more cynical and sarcastic these days! but we don't mind him because we all enjoy watching sir grumble bout the little what-nots in his life, hee. =) btw he told us his wife's a chinese and we were amazed to hear that he can speak alittle cantonese under the influence of his spouse, wow~!

i find friday the worst among my weekdays. we've heavy lessons every friday and lunch's at 12noon where human traffic reaches its peak in the tuckshop~. i like monday tuesday and wednesday more [there's every reason to put on my hair rollers on sunday and tuesday nights so i'll 've curly locks when i wake up from my LaaLaa land~!!!]. =)

ohh, QA was horror plus terror. it was my turn to present the hardest question in our Projects tutorial, ill. dalee and i couldn't stop lamenting on our awful luck-- both of us're always assigned to work on the last two problems of our weekly assignment~.

TMS was a dread. janice and i had to be seated separately from dalee and kangming as the four of us were late and most of the back seats had already been taken up [TMS's the only module in which we hide ourselves high up the MLT whenever we attend the lecture~~].

returned home with the monthly dose of 17- for rachel and myself, wheee~!

sugar sugar masie!
But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 164: pretty much bewildered

2005-02-25T08:34:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

alicia handed me an additional pair of contacts for the BD grouping, and i passed them to BB and LHH in class~.

wasn't feeling really high until lunch break came-- we discussed bout the all new TV serial at 9pm on Ch.8 [it has become a perpetual habit of ours to talk bout the episode of the drama shown the night before over our mid meal daily~!] and held a mini poll. they all think i resemble HaoMeili [it's the role which jacelyntay plays~~] alot alot, especially the color of our skin and the way we guffaw. even my sis shares the same view as well~! goodness me. anyway the storyline's a cute one if u haven't caught abit of it. =)

zzz-ed through QA lecture as usual~. chatted with shimei during the break and found out how somebody's getting on... she showed me pictures of her growing hamsters too. =)

a friend popped by after lecture to check whether our grouping's been finalised. thought the person went alittle too far when she mentioned that SCM students're rather redundant actually, since only marketing and finance knowledge's needed for the project. =( qiuling said she had better not approach us for assistance should she need information from our side one day.

good morning masie~.

PS: things're losing their track; i need to get myself out of the nonsense fast .

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 163: we love EPI!!!

2005-02-23T02:06:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

had vegetarian food with mommy for breakfast and shifted my butt to school quickly after that. =)

EPI was a whole hell of fun-- we learnt so much on table manners and nadiah was made the victim of the day~!

eileen dear shared with me a wonderful idea of hers during lunch, hehh hehh. =) read some magazines with my pals in the library later on, before wati informed us of the cancellation of our CSB tutorial. we wondered if anything bad had cropped up at mr.momo's side. =/

surfed the net while waiting for chinese class to commence. left negative remarks for the course when the teacher circulated the feedback form around-- much [regarding the details of the additional fees here and there~~] was left unsaid at the point when registration was carried out.

buhbye masie~.

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 162: naughty winnie

2005-02-23T01:44:00.003+08:00

dear masie,

started alittle on my PD revision after mom and i returned home from the wet market. hit the pool next, only to realise that i've forgotten to bring my goggles along as i was shoving my belongings into the locker~. drats i kept carrying the thought that i seemed to've left something out while i was packing my barang barang earlier. mommy told me i was being paranoid. =/ in the end i swam slowly by the side of the pool. =(

washed up and rushed to school immediately. mrs.moreira introduced us to the various kinds of cheques and i find the lecture very useful-- i've always been keen on learning transactions that take place at the bank, hee. =)

never speak ill of anybody lest u need the person's help one day. the two classmates of mine who did something they shouldn't 've previously somehow got to know that i was doing the liaison job of the BD grouping for my clique and approached me for assistance.

then soowei had to jump out at the wrong time asking for a pair of SCM projectmates to complete a team of 5. the both of them snatched the offer away before i could bring my pals's attention to the matter, #$!~%^#*!&% !!!

PD lecture was a fun one-- we all called out mr.got-it's name unanimously when mr.rashibalan requested for volunteers to help out at the JAE exercise~. saw two empty coffee cups which were pinned up on the noticeboard outside MLT11 and we decided to join in and fix kangming's one on it as well [yes yes yes, we're inconsiderate and playful lot!]. =) the eight of us gathered to discuss bout BD again; dalee and kangming were the only ones who believe we'd be safe so long as we're in our 4s...=/

walked to the library with qiuling when school finally ended. learnt that the two mentioned earlier didn't manage to get their BD projectmates afterall, three cheers [where's the champagne?? =)] and whoohoo~!

well, the karma effect advanced when i was logged out of the free access system without any notice while blogging halfway~. nevertheless i didn't regret any of the sinful acts for the day, hehh. =)

zzztight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 161: simple day

2005-02-22T22:56:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i woke up before my alarm clock went off @0710hrs~. did calculations of sea freight charges during TMS tutorial. i enjoy dealing with plus and minus problems because the questions're all very straightforward. however sometimes they can be equally confusing also, with the different rates the different types of containers hold~.

lunch was jap food with janice and shimei. =) we had katsu don each, happy~. my class did the military count during BLaw and i formed group(ii) with shimei eileen and cheesiang. presented our tutorial and mr.ds said we got the perfect answers, yay yay. =)

topped up groceries for my family after school. mommy made us cheese and bah-kwa popiahs for dinner, yummy yum! =)

goodnight masie~.

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 160: WE NEED 1 MORE MKTG STUDENT PLS!!!

2005-02-20T07:16:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

spent the whole day fiddling with contacts and searching for BD projectmates [BD stands for Business Development and suaysuayly, that's the module which our final year project falls under next term~~]. according to a friend we'll be working on a problem presented by a company and it's either we make or break since it's a year long assignment. ohh my~.

chatted with wenhua later in the evening. very funny she was delegating duties in her kitchen at the same time, hee. =) many thks to her [love love**], we managed to get acquainted with a pair of pretty trustworthy ladies from FinanceTrading. they're alicia and prisca. =)

rang nannytan to bitch bout life besides informing her of the good news above~. was also telling pm how i might be putting myself up on an online auction soon. i dislike the current winnie truckloads plus aircraft-loads. don't find her adorable anymore. it's not at all smooth over at my side. everything backfires. =/

was surprised to receive an sms from s&k [mktg!!!] at night. he got my no. from xiaoping and asked if momma and i were looking for groupmates. but unfortunately the cooperation had to be called off as we thought the triplets'd split and vice versa.

ohiyo masie!

PS: the overall lecturer in-charge of BD is mad. how is it possible for the entire cohort of SectionB to attain a full team of five members with not more than two from the different courses given only two Marketing classes, part of which're exempted from the module due to another special elective of theirs, to match three SupplyChain and four FinanceTrading ones??!

pardon me for being childish here [yahhyahh i understand we can't pick who want to partner with when we enter the rat race in time to come~~] but why the odd no. 5?? =( only afew dare to step out and work with people they don't quite associate with all by themselves you know...

WE NEED 1 MORE MKTG STUDENT PLS!!!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 159: another blow

2005-02-19T16:36:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

something horrible had to hit hard just as i was slowly recovering from the trauma of the misfunction of my phone-- BD project in year three~. for us in sectionB we're supposed to form a group of five rounding up no more than two members from Diploma in Finance Trading, as well as Marketing and SupplyChain mgt discipline of Diploma in Business Adminstration.

and urghh-- i missed the one and only chance to work with this someone whom i've always wanted to know more about [u do've somebody, be it one of the same gender or opposite sex, whom u've always hoped to make friends with the plain manner don't you?? he or she could be a schoolmate whom u brush shoulders with in the tuckshop, a commuter whom u meet on the bus or the train like almost everyday, or a resident in the same estate as u're...] gosh i should've been more alert to realise my phone was ringing so that wouldn't cost me the precious opportunity...=/ heard they approached sw after that. =(

was too worried over the project matter to settle down for lunch-- we couldn't reach those whom we know of who're doing Finance studies. after much calming down from my pals i bought yong tau foo. couldn't finish it. kangming asked if i was fretting over not locating reliable projectmates and bingo bingo-- i don't mind contributing more in a group when everyone puts in his or her best but the high morale's missing when free-riders're around... u know how hard it is to get those idealists and bochap-ists to produce something constructive right...

finally perked up abit during TMS-- we got ourselves high seats faraway from ms.ok and learnt that shimei got a place in the Roll of Honours~! cheesiang turned around and went broadcasting "that's my classmate that's my classmate!" to the rest aloud, haahaahaa. =) i was grinning from ear to ear 'cos shimei'd be able to support me in future and i'd just lead my life like that of a rich taitai, wheee!!!

btw mr.can-burp-more-times-than-winnie-does was at it again. think we sort of know who that person is already. =)

came across wasted in the library. he was like "winnie~~ winnie~~" in a spooky tone from behind me~. a year one classmate of mine who was working on her retail project gave her boyfriend a hard time.

"where'd u position the outlet if u're given the opportunity??" she posed.

"i don't know, but i suppose not Paragon. i think the place's too posh..." her beau answered.

"so u're telling me ... ... ...??" my ex-classmate snapped.

he kept quiet.

"... that's it. we'll go for Paragon. it's a wise choice." she wrapped up the conversation as he continued his silence~.

i didn't mean to bug but the girl was loud. anyway i felt sorry for the guy because the decision to select Paragon as oppose to his view was apparently a funny one.

had intended to surf the net but i ended up chatting on the phone with huibing instead-- she has found a new job and's so looking forward to working with the kids in the elementary school. =)

met up with most of my relatives from my mom's side and we carried out this ultimate annual lou-hei session as usual. it's fun tossing what's in the raw dish up and down. along with it was filling the air with loads of auspicious sayings. =)

us kids were given a separate table from our daddys and mommys~. we were all very happy with the arrangement since we fancy our own company. i sat between rachel and tiantianie. =) eileen's getting more and more radiant by the day i say it definitely's got something to do with her yoga lessons~!
we gabrahh-ed and gabrahh-ed, then gorgor and eileen began challenging each other with the classic lines in the movie I do, I do, hohoho. =) poor uncle wor who was still living in the MyBrother era couldn't quite comprehend what was going on~.

sweet dreams masie!

PS: i don't understand why so many people're [getting, if not already] so cold in their smses nowadays [some hardly even add in any punctuation!!!]. i wonder is it me or is it a great hassle to insert afew more characters so the msg'll sound friendlier. it hurts to feel being taken for granted... did the creature who chewed the smiley faces off my friends' texts took away the smile on my face as well??

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 158: love is in the air~~

2005-02-17T23:42:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

u won't believe it but nocturnal winnie actually turned in @8pm last night~! visited an aquaintance's blog and was super duper impressed by what he wrote, aww...=) janice was equally moved as well. the entry was dedicated to his fiancee and i reckon he should be a Cancerian. they say Cancerian guys make really good husbands, hee...=) may the couple grow old together happily...=)

i had round ten hours of zzz, but i behaved as though i didn't catch a wink the night before-- my group put up our tutorial answers via the computer terminal, but as i was presenting halfway i shifted towards the visualiser, lifted it up and tried to adjust the paper thinking we had printed the assignment out and placed it through the projector. aiyohhyohh~.

lunch was at fc3 with jieying and huixin, we patronised the same store selling waffles again, hehh. =)

joined janice qiuling shimei wati and soowei at fc5 after that and they were playing with poker cards-- shimei who was in winning stride promised to deposit some savings in our joint account at the bank, how sweet of her...=) so momma accompanied me to walk around the place while we waited for my partner to earn her income. bought a can of winter melon tea and took out my phone to snap afew shots. =)

nannytan gave me a shock when she told me she's converting into a vegetarian [not literally, if u get my point~~]!!! i tried talking her out of the silly thought but that woman just wouldn't listen, how now?? =(

ohiyo masie!

PS: happy 6 years daedae, am loving u more and more each day...=)

episdoe 157: impt announcement~

2005-02-16T23:46:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

EPI was called off for the day [we heard somebody in mrs.moreira's family passed away...=/] so dalee and i visited the library for free access again. i wanted to give her a scare; squatted below the printers and sprang up when she entered the computer lab. however my attempt wasn't at all successful-- she had long noticed my act through the glass panel from afar~. (-_-)

scanned through many blogs with good english which gave my mind an enriching treat. i love good reads. =)

dalee and kangming got me a cinnamon roll during lunch and i gobbled it up quickly before CSB commenced~. did a boring assignment in class-- we had to propose for an outdoor fitness space to be included in part of the upgrading work in SunsetWay estate. haahaa that's the place mr.momo's residing and from what i know they actually've a couple of very well-equipped exercise corners already [that's where tiantianie's staying too~!]. =)

shimei lugged all her baby hamsters along for lesson since soowei's able to tell their gender. tutorial ended at 2pm and we all stayed back to checked the little kids out. one of them even wee-wee-ed on the computer keyboard, hohoho!!!

zzz tight masie~!

PS: life's got its ups and downs-- haven't been feeling my best ever since my previous phone went bonkers. i need aqua therapy badly yet i can't hit the pool this week. my posts aren't as lengthy as before if u've noticed. i've been thinking alot. and i intend to take a break from blogging soon, perhaps wef 18.mar.2005-- i don't know bout other wordsmiths but the sense of insecurity within myself's getting much too overbearing as i expose my life story over the world wide web i yearn to take a breather... but i gather i'd still fill masie in with other stuffs though not on a daily basis, and then probably pen down afew mind-blowing memories from time to time; keep a lookout for the pending revamp will ya?? =)

episode 156: lazy tuesday

2005-02-15T23:45:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

dragged my tired self out of my bed and visited the market with mommy in the morning. we had heavy breakfast and i made my way to BukitBatok station where i took a train down to Bugis after that. met up with sabrina~. we proceeded to collect our paycheck and deal with some CPF matters in the agency. sweelian handed us each a red packet before we left. =)

got cash [whoohoo~!] from the bank at the ground floor and turned back to school. BLaw was cancelled last minute so i carried on with free access in the library with dalee and kangming until 4pm~. not many from our class turned up for the PD lecture. mr.got-it brought along with him a baluku of the size of a fist [!!!] on his forehead and dalee and i couldn't stop laughing we thought it served the BL right for being over-enthusiastic in everything [i tell u he's ms.ok's favourite!]~. shimei my charsiewpau joined us and sat beside me in the MLT. =)

picked up a file for rachel from Popular Bookstore when school was over. bought something to quench my thirst later on but the liquid tasted rather weird...=(

zzz tight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 155: happy valentines

2005-02-15T07:37:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

came across cousin iris at the bus stop early in the morning~. school was as usual; i was called piggy throughout the day thks to my beloved classmates [they're such grudge-bearing people!!! ]. =) the yoghurt making machine's back~! i had a spoonful of dalee's pink creation [it tricked me into depositing it down my throat with its close resemblance to strawberry ice cream~~] and nearly leapt out of my seat-- gosh it drove zzzly-headed winnie wide awake right after that i swear i'm going to jot it down under my log book of sour consumables, ill...=(

chatted with kc and met up with eileen [shhh... we gonna pick up exotic dancing!!! it's something similar to pole dancing 'xcept the focus's on men not the rod haa~. the course was recommended by tiantianie's friend and eileen's trying to get hold of more information from the instructor, hee...=) but i've got my swimming commitment apart from my chinese lessons and driving practices... on top of everything else there's my studies too i wonder if i can afford anymore time for the classes...=/]. =)

during Blaw dalee passed her SMINT-wildberry around and to everyone's surprise i was able to take the minty candy pretty well [try chewing CLORETS infront of me and i'll make sure i holler till ur ears drop-- i don't engage much in the toothpaste-tastealike flavour other than fiddling around with my tube of Fresh&White when i wash up~~]~!

anyway as the saying goes; no smint, no kiss-- i offered a smooch but nobody was willing to accept it, so sad [yea right ~rolls eyes~]...=( btw i also shocked those seated at the last two rows in the room by lifting my new skirt up [no worries there's a pair of pants sewn dead to it underneath~~] to reveal the unique design of the apparel, hehh. =)

saw mr.rashibalan on my way to the train station and said hi to him. he was just done with his tutorial at the IDEAS cafe, hee. =)

caught SeoulRaiders with kenny in the evening, happy happy-- it was a fantastic show and tony leung was really cool~!

ohiyo masie!

PS: bumped into mg unknowingly at JurongEast train station for the second time in three days, wait till momma janice hears about that~!

PSS: i'm suffering from an awful phone-lag-- am not quite used to the Panasonic style of texting i've to retype many of my smses most of the time...=/

episode 154: and i got my new phone...

2005-02-13T23:54:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i woke up early today-- had the runs again... i hate charging into the loo, boohoo...=( changed and got ready to entertain the many uncles and aunties plus cousins who visited our place later on~.

rachel and i left for K-lunch at KBox JurongEntertainmentCentre. =) sang and sang and sang, whoohoo~! both of us picked up V-day goodies for our friends before returning home, and i signed up for a mobile at Hello! WestMall which costed me the pay i received for the past few days of work after that. chose a Panasonic X400 in white-- they had completely ran out of stock for the Mitsubishi handset which i was eyeing. =/ but according to the person X400's equally good, just that the memory space's slightly smaller i'm keeping my fingers tightly crossed. =)

uncle.leong carried chloe over in the evening. they brought so many things back from Korea~!

took a nap and woke up at night to check my phone-- the battery wasn't fully charged yet. read through the instruction manual briefly and found it rather idiot-friendly, blast me. =)

goodnight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 153: i need help in rising my EQ

2005-02-13T12:13:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

daddy and mommy bought us lunch before rushing out~. gorgor left home subsequently after his meal [boy his hair's so long now~!], followed by rachel and myself. i got food for daedae and met up with michelle. we then took a train down to ChoaChuKang where we met evelyn and allan. =) bought shopping vouchers for xueni and joined her group of pals later on~.

something abrupt turned out at the soiree, leaving my cheerful face the color of black sesame paste. we all wondered why xueni did that-- i especially detest it when i get cheated and set up, even more so when the mastermind's a close friend of mine. i'd 've exploded if not for allan's chivalry.

the four of us [michelle evelyn allan and urs truly~~] were overjoyed to've gotten ourselves out of the mess by 8+pm. =) we headed back to Lot1 and continued our dinner at Delifrance. then michelle started conversing in hokkien all of a sudden, and evelyn and allan went on likewise to accomodate ms.wong. =) haa i think it's funny hearing dialect from my peers [no not because they aren't articulate in their speech or what; the thought just pops out in the reflex manner~~], but i usually don't join in 'cos i hold only half a bucket of water when it comes to such lingoes. =)

visited Bits&Pieces to view the rings evelyn and allan made, and then proceeded to catch RacingStripes in the cinema. =) it's quite a good film on the whole, old plot but funny story-- the animals could speak and the zebra was brilliant~! by the time we were out the last bus which could take me home was long gone. =( decided to take a train instead, and the three of them were so nice they missed an earlier train to accompany me in waiting for mine. =)

good afternoon masie!

PS: evelyn and allan're on their way to the ROM; michelle and i're so happy for the both of them...=) to all ladies who're unsure of whether ur beau's hubby-worthy, just take him along to meet ur lady chums and they'll be more than glad to assist in the judgement. =)

PSS: gorgor complained that he zzz-ed through Howl'sMovingCastle as soon as the cartoon started~. haahaa. =)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 152: T.G.I.F

2005-02-12T10:54:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

work was easy yesterday, i processed the zoo cards and medical chits at my own pace with $7.50 rolling in my pocket every sixty minutes. =)

somebody appeared for an interview though it was only the third day of the lunar new year. the guy was very presentably dressed and i finally understood what mr.momo meant when he mentioned we needed a stylish folio should we visit our prospective employer-- he held on with him a professional briefcase of this well-known monogram~. and he was cooped in the conference room for almost an hour!

settled lunch at CafeGalilee again~. btw i'm excellent with time management i popped into afew stores selling nail vanishes and even got my EZ_link topped up at the train station before reaching my table 5minutes prior to the end of my break. =)

the IS manager who ever saw me at the HR department previously came over and started a chat. he thought i was married or something because of the band i wore on my finger, haahaa. i asked him whether he's got many Thomson products at home. he shrugged and replied when one's familiar with items in his or her workplace he or she won't probably want to acquire any from there, gee. then i told him how disappointed i am with electronics [my phones~~] these days. the manager agreed that things hardly last as long as they used to in the past anymore, and taught me an extended warranty [which normally covers round 4% of what the purchases cost~~]'s a smart alternative to counter the disputed point. =) speak of an IT guru [he earned his computer degree in UK and another i-forgot-what's-that from NTU locally, wow~~]!

a short while later came eileen dear's sms~. i rang her and whoohoo-- tiantianie's gonna take us go clubbing!!! but chongy had gotten our family the tickets to I Do, I Do. luckily the movie commences at 7pm. =)

ms.peggy handed me an angbao [the amount was quite a sum considering we've no family connection with each other~~] when i returned her the access card to the office. =) gave my eyelashes a generous helping of mascara and visited Hello! at WestMall to look at the phones which were within my budget. thought Panasonic X400's not bad too~.

armed ourselves with nachos, popcorn and FIZZY sprite just on time before entering the theatre~. I Do, I Do's a funny film if u've some knowledge of Hokkien that is, hehh. =)

rushed down to Orchard via bus.106 and met up with tiantianie and eileenie. =) they caught the same show while waiting for me the former couldn't stop relating everything to the film, hohoho. =) we went Thumper at GoodWoodParkHotel. it's not as pricey as compared to the other pubs around for there wasn't any cover charge and non-alcoholic drinks costed $11 each~. most importantly, eileen and i weren't stopped at the entrance, hee. =)

i ordered lime juice~. it was the most expensive glass i've ever drank... and it tasted SOOO SOUR...=( i prefer sweet lime juices, bet they must've forgotten to add in the sugar syrup before bringing over to our table [alright alright, it hurts if u roll ur eyes too much yahh?? =)]. my two cousins were contented with their ShirleyTemple. =)

we continued our girls' talk from where we last stopped after our reunion dinner the other day. us three girls've loads to tell each other when it comes to the topic on relationships~. chatted chatted and chatted. tiantian managed to point out nicholas lee from the once-popular sitcom UnderOneRoof although the place was rather dark. =)

after the jazz band packed up eileen wanted badly to sway her way to the podium. but tiantianie was tired and i didn't belong to the dance floor. i offered to help tend our belongings though, hehh. =)

anyway we walked around the hotel while waiting for tiantian's colleague to drive in and pick us home [he arrived 15min late~~].

let's call him mr.jerk--i didn't really knew what's one like until we met u see, and i couldn't replace the description with any better word that fits him decently [thought H was rotten enough but mr.jerk was worser~~]. eileen alighted shortly. i never liked to make conversations with strangers, however he's a friend of tiantianie i thought i'd sell my cousin some face by being a sport.

BUT that guy referred eileen and i as "THOSE TWO" and "KIDDIES" when he learnt bout our age, choked when he found out i had lime juice in a bar [why what's wrong with not consuming liquor in a lounge?? =(], and even claimed that i had a CURFEW [holy pig my folks've never put me under one before~~]~. retarded... who was he to pass those comments??!

so that was it, i lost my cool and kept silent, then crossed my fingers and shook my head when tiantian turned back to look at me. i mumbled something like bossie's 100 times better... and knowing i was on the verge to blow that creep demonstated the old yet widely-practised technique of sweet-talking. i loathe guys who do that; to add on he pacified me by running eayy's name down [he doesn't know his initials sound like that of an idiot~!], ill ill ill!!!

then guilt overcame me when tiantianie went quiet as well... she dotes on us the most and that guy offered us a lift back afterall... so in the end i replied briefly to what he shot~. before i dropped off the car i smiled and requested politely for mr.jerk to bring his face closer so i could take a good look of him.

good indeed~. now that i've captured the image of that german meatball [tell me what can stink more than the combination of 'vin a lack in both looks and personality?? not that i've something against one's appearance; i'm no filthy gorgeous babe myself, but i certainly despise those with poor character~~] in my head, we had better not bump into each other on the streets next time. and he had better not win the heart of my cousin, amen~.

good morning masie!

PS: sorry to've made everybody my aunt agony; the two weeks which went by hadn't appease me a single bit on the issue. =/

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 151: gong xi fa cai (ii)

2005-02-10T20:47:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

everyone was awoken from their pleasant dreams by mommy the walking alarm clock early in the morning. we sat around at grandaunt's place and then proceeded to SunsetWay again. was feeling pretty lighthearted, until cousin rodericks reminded me of something sad.

"Have u got a built-in camera in that handphone u're carrying??" he questioned indignantly. for heavens sake why did the primary5 kid know so much??!

requested to leave earlier with uncle.alfred and company since i belonged to neither the blackjack nor the mahjong clan [daddy commented that the game's probably too complicated for me to pick up while chongchong added on saying i'll get to learn it when i transform into a taitai in future~.

actually i kind of like it when i'm home alone. i'm at such ease i've my showers and do my businesses with the bathroom door open when nobody's around [wait a minute, HOLD THE PUKE yahh?? =)]. but i don't get to do that often since there's always somebody around at home~. and in fact it takes me rather long to lock or unlock the main door together with its grille gate despite of the six-year-long stay in the flat, because i hardly've to lock or unlock everything up-- there's always somebody around at home. =)

anyway i dropped a letter of compliment in the SMRT webby with regards to a bus driver who assisted blurry winnie in the recovery her M)phosis pouch last month [yes i feel it's very important that we remember to show our gratitude and appreciation to those who extended their help no matter how little the effort was; in this case the uncle deserved the recognition from his management besides my heartfelt thanks...=)], cleared some files [gorgor mentioned my pictures were taking up the hard disk space of the computer!!!] and slept from 6-10+pm [so shiok-- i was in bed for only three hours the night before~~] when my family was back. =)

night night masie!

PS: rachel taught me a how to do an outstandingly lame poker trick!!!

PSS: i get easily annoyed when i've a lack of vitaminZ~.

PSSS: angbao intake was pathetic...

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 150: gong xi fai cai

2005-02-10T18:41:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i really shouldn't 've gotten my cny clothes separately. just came to realise in the morning that my purchases didn't seem to quite compliment each other when placed together~. was initially full of blues but smiles appeared on my face when daddy agreed to return home so i could change and slip into my flats. =)

we had vegetarian steamboat for lunch at uncle.alex's place and moved on to visit a relative in JurongWest. then we called on aunty.sharon's and dropped by to see another relative in AngMoKio. pigged out at the Central after that. the stingray was wonderful. =)

the best's always saved for the last-- our final stop for the day was the Chans'! it has somewhat become a tradition for us to visit serene's place every cny, gee. =) there were two other families around when we reached there-- adeline's and randall's~.

i enjoyed myself thoroughly. think everyone did too. =) read serene's CLEo and watched the television at the same time before i joined the guys at the mahjong square for afew rounds of the big2~. i didn't win [as usual~~] nor lose very badly though, hehh. =)

took a couple of pictures with serene and paired up with her during the pillow fight against randall and mr.tycoking~. ronnie who was so absorbed in his read was totally indifferent towards the war which broke out in the same room~.

we then chatted and i said hi to ronnie's duckie [used to visit them often in the past and we'll always play with the soft toys~~]. =) came up with the aunty winnie nonsense to humour little randall, he's adorable. =)

zzz tight masie!

PS: angbao intake was optimistic~!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 149: the reunion dinner~~

2005-02-09T02:18:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i was back to temp at ThomsonAsia again~. there wasn't anything much to do as it was the eve of cny and most of the staff were not around. there were loads of courier deliveries though, all rushing to beat the public holidays i suppose. am glad that my knowledge on airway bills came in handy when i received the cargo on behalf of some colleagues. =)

managed to rack a receiver out from the pile of stuffs and was so happy i tuned in to yes933 immediately. =) and ohh, the Multimedia department's got the most inviting pantry i say~.

knocked off at 2pm and went to collect the authorised timesheets from michelle. sharon showed me the huge stack of photographs which they took in Vietnam. =)

packed things off my study table and completed the final phase of springcleaning in my room~. my hair was nearly flat by then i had to fluff it back speedily using electronic curling tongs.

dinner was steamboat again, this time round at uncle.lai's maisonette. =) rachel and i broke the sad piece of news to cousin bryan we hope he'd take things easy.

it was picture snapping session after the hearty meal with courtesy of both cousin candy and tiantianie's digicameras~. chatted abit and headed uncle.wor's room where the guys were playing PS2. winnie the ultimate moron thought technology's so advanced cousin bryan could view the soccer match between andy and gorgor from his computer!

they all went bowling at Safra.Mt.Faber later on~. i didn't follow despite the countless "Go lahh-s" from my zealous cousins. the mood to play wasn't there. =/ had ice cream with rachel instead. we chose the costly ones from 7-11. =)

goodnight masie!

PS: vanilla and rootbeer make one of the worst concoctions ever!!!

PSS: it's plain discourteous to open up somebody's bag and fiddle around with the contents in it~.

PSSS: i put on my new pink MNG cami in hope that it'll lift my spirits up, but nothing seemed to be of any help...

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 148: i love steamboats~!

2005-02-07T10:39:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i took a long walk home from outside and had steamboat with my family in the evening~. it was something heartwarming though daddy complained that the place was slightly crammed. mommy didn't eat much; she was busy running in and out of the kitchen i swear i gonna love her more...=)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 147: unlucky day~~

2005-02-06T23:22:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

gorgor did an examination of my darling 6610 which refused to be switched on all of a sudden no matter what. he pronounced the mobile dead at 0927hrs, Sunday, 06 Feb 05. =(

i lost a great deal of stuff along with it... several important contacts in the phone list, many many downloads... my mmses... smses... OUR smses... my goodness... ... ...

work becomes a dread whenever i'm feeling low-- listless winnie made a blunder while doing public addressing and got barked at by a terrible customer over the phone...=/

boss got us each a carton of mandarin oranges. dad fetched me after work as i couldn't carry mine~.

chongy recommended a Mitsubishi handset to me; renjie has one with loads of memory space and the pictures taken're very clear... according to him the model's so far so good~. think i'll most probably do a price study among the different retailers first before going ahead with the investment... Nokia phones're completely out of my circle of trust right now... Samsung mobiles're pretty common these days while Panasonic ones've limited storage space... then some Siemens handsets do not support traditional chinese... ... ...

guess it's gonna be a zzz-less night for me later on...

urghh... why me masie??!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 146: we sing we sing we sing sing sing~~

2005-02-05T09:30:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i had a super duper fun ktv session with dalee janice shimei soowei and kangming at Kbox.ParadizCentre! qiuling couldn't make it as she had other commitments elsewhere. =/ i was the only latecomer hence the rest're entitled to call me piggy from now on [yea, serve me right for coming up with such an idiotic pledge~~]...=/

we only found out that the branch in Cineleisure was fully booked when we got there. kangming was smart to ring up the nearest outlet in ParadizCentre where he chopped a room for us in advance. =) we marched happily over and as usual, witty winnie came up with something hilarious out of a caucasian lady that made everybody almost laughed their heads off. =)

when we finally reached the place we had to produce our student concessions but i realised i forgot to bring mine along with me. =( the person-in-charge was nice to let me pass. =) i signed up for a membership card~.

the room they reserved was large for the six of us, yay yay. =) we sang and sang and sang, whoohoo~! the service was superb too-- the person brought in six bowls of tidbits when i requested for a top up, so we ate until our throats went hoarsely dry!!! =)

chose so many oldies and took turns to head the WC as we were all feeling cold~. i stood near the artifical firecracker display at the entrance and drove shimei and momma janice mad when i pretended to be fearful, shutting my eyes and pressing my palms against my ears at the same time, hohoho. =)

took a train back with dalee and kangming; the couple thought winnie's rather extreme for a girl, but nahh-- i only play the role of a jester when i'm with a party of chummy chums i'm pretty tamed when i'm out with just a friend alone. =) btw did you know that it takes someone bright to keep everyone entertained always [ehem~!]?? =)

sugar sugar dreams masie!

PS: soowei's distantly related to pin.guan!!!

PSS: shimei and soowei created the nth label for me-- mrs.mo-saupau...=) i can't make up my mind as to whether i adore mr.momo or mr.ds [he loves tau sar pau-s just like i do!!!] more u see, hehh. =)

and shimei's my char siew pau~. perhaps i'll use the week and come up with a pau-y nickname for the others as well. =)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 145: our well awaited term break~~

2005-02-04T11:30:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

our PD report's ready for submission at last...=) turned in early the previous night and woke up at 6+ this morning to do some stitching of the document before sending it over to kangming for the print-out. =)

we got shimei and soowei to endorse on the contract but ah.wei added an exclusion clause at the bottom discreetly in attempt to keep those who might not be able to turn up last minute safe and sound~. unfortunately both dalee and xiaolee, upon reading the addendum, snapped aloud that an exclusion clause can only be made valid WHEN it is brought to the attention of ALL parties BEFORE entering into the common agreement~. besides, postal rule doesn't apply to any form of telecommunication, hiahh hiahh. =)

met up with serene who came to visit the open house for a short while during QA and ran back to the lab after that. =)

we decided to call upon an early self-declaration of the commencement of our term break and gave ms.ok's TMS lecture a skip~. headed JurongPoint with janice dalee and kangming, the train ride to Boon Lay was a whoohoo one. =)

when we stepped out of the station a guy who was armed with a questionnaire approached and asked "Miss, can you bear with me for awhile?".

"and what was he going to do to us??" i thought for a second, picturing him sniggering and flashing out a piece of sharp blade at the same time. i shook my head and told him we were in a rush, bet it must've been his first day at work-- he should've his greeting rephrased to something which sounds better~.

we then walked around hunting shoes for janice and kangming. =) village chief got his pair within twenty minutes, "that's guys for u~~", i teased nannytan, who couldn't seem to catch anything of her fancy after walking round the shopping mall~.

nannytan and midwife lee decided they'd rest their feet at Mc.Cafe. momma said the double choco freppe was not bad but it tasted somewhat like chendol to me *frowns*. =/

then i went to update my bankbook and handed the timesheets to michelle. =) they bought me yet another bag [it's a clutch this time round!!!] from Vietnam and awed me so much on how the trip went, wow wow wow. =)

did some grocery shopping for daedae and got myself a pair of plain Reebok x-training shoes from RSH, apart from a pair of Speedo shorts before it was home sweet home, laalaalaa~. =)

assisted tiantianie with an internet booking of cinema tickets for a 1am film at PlazaSingapura! was grumbling to her on how a no-life person her lil' cousin was morphing into, putting a raving friday night into waste, staying indoors doing nothing but reading, when she unfolded the lie and cut my crap, hohoho...=) anyway i'm looking forward to seeing our beloved water manager at the reunion dinner, yay yay. =)

sweet dreams masie!

PS: i hate MOSQUITOES~!!!
But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 144: Nestle Milo-- Bring out the champion in you!

2005-02-03T23:57:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

we had PD tutorial and the whole class applauded because kevan was early for class... for once! he passed around a jar of pineapple tarts too. =)

silly winnie hit her head against nannytan's CPU by accident, ill ill ill. =/

during lunch jieying brought along her new colleague over to fc6. her name's huixin, a very quiet and petite pretty lady from NJC as well. =) and jieying handed me a bar of kitkat chunky!!! we chatted abit and i showed them around the bazaar. =) saw eileen and suhfen and waved a hi to them. =)

caught the big green friendly vehicle stationed outside Sch Of Business and whiny winnie kept pestering her pals to accompany her there for free beverages~. well, the milo van visits SB once a year when the school open house comes. =) i remember there also used to be one or two of them available at the MacRitchie Reservoir during Crescent's annual cross country runs back then. =)

consumed an aggregate of 4.5 cups of the very concentrated liquid in all i'd 've carried on if my classmates hadn't stopped me, hehh. =)

fell deep a-zzz when mr.raj entered the MLT~. janice couldn't take the boredom and finally managed to wake me up to chat during BLaw. =) being cranky i made everybody sign the contract drafted by urs truly, so as to guarantee attendance and protect the interest of those who make an effort to turn up for the Kbox trip on the coming saturday, wheee~!

i did a personality test after school~. am quite certain i attempted the quiz before as the questions were somewhat familiar, however afew answers of mine this time round differ slightly from those of the past. guess it's because we do change as we grow~. grab a pencil and jot down what u think before 'vin the analysis done further below yea?? =)

______________________________
Question 1 shows your attitude toward life
A. If you chose the forest, you're deep, quiet. People find you incredibly interesting because you don't how show your true self right away. Pals love you because you're a good listener.
B. If you chose the cornfield, you're bright, honest and likable. You make friends easily and rarely get bummed. You've got a rep for being entertaining and fun, and you're always the center of attention.
C. If you chose the rolling hills, you're practical and down-to-earth, and you attract people with your straightforward nature. A great problem solver, you always listen to both points of view before taking a side.

----------------
Question 2 reveals what kind of the other half you're looking for
A. If you chose the mirror, you're searching for a guy/gal who shares your outlook on life. You've got a pretty good idea of what your ideal boyfriend/girlfriend is like, but keep an open mind - the perfect guy may be someone you normally wouldn't look twice at!

[ohh my, do u mean an ah-beng???!]
B. If you chose the ring, you are a true romantic. When in a relationship, you work hard at keeping things mushy. You believe true love is forever, and although you might not admit it, you want your guy/gal care about you.
C. If you chose the bottle, you want someone who's not afraid to show his intelligence. Ambitious, hard-working guys/gals turn you on drop-dead gorgeous just isn't enough for you.

----------------
Question 3 tells how commitment-ready you are

A. If you said yes, you're dying to pick the right person.

B. If you said no, you're into playing the field for now.

[hey this qn's not applicable at all for me-- basically i don't 've the habit of picking anything up frm the ground unless it's vitamin.M, hee...=)]

----------------
Question 4 symbolizes your passion potential
A. If you chose the lake, you're not interested in having a superficial relationship. Once you meet someone you're really into, your love runs deep.
B. If you chose the waterfall, opposite sex think you're ultrasexy. You're good at turning on the charm, and loads of guys/gals lust after you.
C. If you chose the brook, you're always crushing on someone new. You're an expert flirt, and you're frequently on the move from one partner to the next.

----------------
Question 5 expresses your views on school
A. If you saw the housekey, education is less important to you than the world beyond. Secretly, you may be dying to start a career and a home of your own.
B. If you saw the antique key, you consider education to be crucial. You want to work hard and absorb as much knowledge as you possibly can.
C. If you saw the padlock key, you may not be too into school,but you still have plenty of great ideas. You follow your intuition, so you may eventually end up in an offbeat career.

----------------
Question 6 gives clues about your ambitions
A. If you chose the mansion, you've got tons of goals. You strive to be the best at whatever you do, and you're attracted to jobs that let you express your energetic personality. Being successful makes you superpsyched.
B. If you chose the cottage, you have a realistic attitude toward a future profession. Because your feet are planted firmly on the ground, you'll probably rock at whatever career you pick.

[you bet, thank you thank you!]
C. If you chose the castle, your career dreams could be a little unrealistic. Becoming a mega-star would be fab, but aim for something closer to home first. Otherwise, you may wind up being a little disappointed.
----------------
Question 7 shows your attitude towards success
A. If you looked through the window, you're a little afraid of failing. Taking that first step toward reaching a goal is the most intimidating to you, so don't give up before you've actually tried.
B. If you went inside, you feel confident about success. Nothing's going to stand in your way!
C. If you kept walking, success isn't a big deal for you. You're content with simple things and you'd rather be around people you love than spend your life trying to get to the top.

----------------
Question 8 reveals your worst fears
A. If you chose the bear, you worry about being able to stand on your own two feet. Independence is totally key.
B. If you chose the wizard, you're scared about things that are often beyond your control. So, to make up for it, you sometimes go on a heavy-duty power amperage.
C. If you chose the troll, you tend to be obsess over how others see you. It's very crucial that people like you.

----------------
Question 9 represents your innermost self
A. If you chose the gardens, you're mature and honest. You believe in speaking your mind, and people rely on you to provide a sensible viewpoint. However, you may come across problems in the future that you'll have to solve with your heart, not your head.
B. If you chose the desert pond, you have a deep need for your own space. You're always analyzing your thoughts, and you've been known to do a disappearing act when things get tough. Sharing your feelings with someone you trust can help you feel better.
C. If you chose the beach, you are passionate about life and have strong opinions that you aren't afraid to reveal. But you're unpredictable, and you change those opinions often. Sometimes, like the ocean, you'll show your calmer side-but usually not for long!

was that accurate?? =)

buhbye masie!

PS: i thought my hair looked the nicest ever today, yay yay. =)

PSS: mr.ds wore a bright yellow-orange checkered shirt today!!!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 143: and the madness continues...

2005-02-03T22:46:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

we worked on our PD report earlier [there isn't any peer evaluation included in the assessment of the project so we gonna request for one since somebody isn't contributing~~] and had lunch together. =)

janice took the barbie title away from me-- they gathered the name was too posh for crude winnie afterall~. i'm now stuck with burper, period. they said they won't stop calling me that until i cease burping, boohoo...=/

during CSB mr.momo mentioned that our destiny seemed to be tied together as we kept bumping into each other the day before. =) i tried to AA by plucking all my courage and crossing my fingers real tight, before making an attempt to answer a question which according to sir, was gotten correctly by only a student in his teaching career so far~. thank goodness my lucky charm worked-- i got it right and broke the one-man record, whoohoo and three cheers!!! btw my face went very red, awww...=)

and that was it again-- i went embarassing myself for the nth time, singing the barney song aloud and mr.momo who heard me decided to join in too [ohh my ohh my!]. =/ did the memo assignment slipshod-ly as i was overwhelmed with weariness i almost dozed off the computer desk halfway through...=(

when class was over cheeky winnie asked mr.momo where he's residing, whether is it by chance anywhere near the BotanicalGardens, hee. =) turned out that he's actually staying in SunsetWay, just alittle further down tiantianie's place~! i wonder if i'd chance upon him in the 7-11 store when i visit uncle.lai and company on Day2 of CNY, hehh. =)

skipped my chinese class due to some last minute work commitment, this time round the green light came from my mom, yes. =)

goodnight masie!

PS: speaking of my cousin, i found this under her latest updated Friendster profile and thought it was rather cool...=)

"Love is not finding someone to live with, It's finding someone you can't live without.

You come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly.

When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, You want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible."

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 142: winnie the nonsense queen...

2005-02-03T15:22:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i headed the market with mommy and then daddy joined us at the bank to get new notes for the red packets. =) while my folks were speaking to the teller at the booth i discreetly reached out to gope a handful of strawberry chews available in the bowl~. mom saw what i was doing and i put up a smug look, smiling and raising my eyebrows at the same time. she rolled her eyes~. hohoho, call me the greedy piggy...=)

rushed to the pool to take a dip after that. =) hurried off to school for BLaw lecture and swallowed down the fish fillet sandwich [i hereby DECLARE that i shall NEVER EVER patronise the western foodstall in fc6 of SingaporePolytechnic anymore; the lady had better check her attitude and do something about it before they lose all their customers, really!] during the break. had lime juice too. =)

kept knocking into mr.momo in the Language Department as well as at the bazaar, haahaahaa. =) his colleague said something which was very flattering~!

took a shot in the MLT with wenhua using her new phone when BLaw resumed, the snap sound was so audible we protected ourselves by acting blurr almost immediately, gee. =)

i found somebody whom i can do a hi-5 with during mr.rashibalan's lecture!!! he burps loudly and continuously just like what i do too, whoohoo!!! dalee named my shoebag burpie, and being burpie's mummy i'm now known as barbie~! yahh it sounds blonde but i quite like it, yay yay. =)

visited Orchard when school ended. picked up a bedsheet set for daddy and mommy in a sale and completed my purchases of cny clothes after that, laalaalaa...=)

good afternoon masie!

PS: burp count for the day-- 7~!!!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 141: one more CA down!

2005-02-01T03:19:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i was up 15min earlier before my alarm clock rang yesterday. =) took a bus with dalee and had my farecard topped up at the train station. there wasn't anything much during TMS; we submitted our CA report, did peer evaluation for the project and learnt bout the different ports across the world~.

indulged in the very authentic taiwan snow ice from the stall at the bazaar [they keep coming up with bazaars after bazaars in school these days; what's ridiculous is they sell almost the same stuff each time~!] halfway through BLaw tutorial. =) dalee and kangming shared a choco-flavoured one while janice and i settled for a strawberry-flavoured one. =) both tasted marvelously terffic-- the ice melts in the most amazing manner when placed in the mouth!!! and AT LAST~! i got the chance to present my group's answer before the class during BLaw-- mr.ds usually calls it a day whenever i'm set to be the presenter we don't know why~.

learnt that one of shimei's six baby hamsters was eaten up by one of the adult males the previous night and she's very upset over the matter...=( we were shocked as to why things turned out that way too... shouldn't the little innocent ones be counted out of the affairs of the heart [there were two male adult hamsters but only one female one which was the mother of the kids~~]?? =/

took a train down to town with momma janice and met up with kenny. we had dinner together and went for ice cream at Swensens Bugis after that. =)

night night masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 140: something interesting to find out...

2005-01-31T00:22:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i've always wanted to see for myself whether uncle.alfred's thesis on taxis is right-- he claimed that meters of TIBS cabs more often than not tend to skip faster than those of the rest. i've been holding the idea back as i didn't want to check it out on the expense of my own finances. however, yesterday happened to be just the perfect day to do so as i was to collect something for my boss from PlazaSingapura. =)

"winnie, u can take a cab to and fro from wherever u're," danzel told me the night before~. this's what i call employee empowerment, at least from the context that i was able to pick for myself where and which cab to hop in [yes!!!], apart from how long to take my own sweet time in between the taxi rides. =)

uncle.alfred's right indeed. i sat in a Comfort there and returned with a TIBS. the former trip costed me $9.70 while i was charged $10.60 for the latter one, whoa~!!!

so that roughly took up 15% of my total working hours for the day. =) my company allows us to claim for taxi fares whenever they're shorthanded, and sometimes when we knock off after 12midnight. =)

had dinner with dad mom and rachel after work at JurongWest. we got chongchong a mac.chicken takeaway set from McDonald's where rachel and i made a fool of ourselves trying to be very slang-y in our conversation, hohoho. =) btw i finally got my fingers laid on the spiral fries of the fastfood restaurant. i say they kind of resemble potato wedges~.

got the below from a forum...=) have u ever pondered over...

Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat?

Why do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds' when they know there is not enough?

Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?

Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?

Why do they use sterilised needles for death by lethal injection?

Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and insert coins in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

Whose fantastic idea was it to put an "S" in the word "lisp"?

Can you cry under water?

What is the speed of darkness?

How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on big suitcases?

If you send someone styrofoam, how do you pack it?

If the temperature is zero outside today and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be?

Why does a round pizza come in a square box?

Do married people live longer than single ones or does it only seem longer?

If money doesn't grow on trees then why do banks have branches?

If someone with a split personality threatens to commit suicide, is it a hostage situation?

If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a ※hearing§?

What level of importance must a person have, before he or she is considered assassinated instead of just murdered?

Why do doctors, when they ask you to strip, leave the room or close the cubicle curtain while you change when they're still going to see you naked anyway?

zzz tight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 139: "I am glad I did it, partly because it was well worth it, and chiefly because I shall never have to do it again,"

2005-01-29T06:44:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i received an sms from michelle early in the morning before she boarded the plane. she's so cute she told me to jot down whoever who bullies me at work over the weekend when she's not around and she'll make sure they pay for it when she returns, hehh. =)

skipped PD lecture to study for my BLaw CA. mommy bought me warm beancurd jelly for breakfast~!

QA was fine, i was able to read my BLaw notes as mr.raj went through the questions. followed what nannytan did blindly during lab exercise as i was absent from the last class previously. =/

i bought the last cinnamon roll from the drinks stall and munched on it happily. =) kangming asked what was inside the pastry. funny did he reckon there was ginger or any other kind of spices in a cinnamon bread?? =)

and our beloved village chief got his precious Ralph Lauren polo tee soiled again~. something happens everytime he puts on the creme colored shirt, haahaa. =)

after BLaw paper i saw qiuling and kevan at the bus stop while waiting for wenhua. we exchanged afew sentences before my bus came. =)

ohiyo masie!

PS: it had been a heavy week~. but like what a friend told me, everything's gonna be fine after friday [she suffered from a bad week too~~]. =)

PSS: the title of the entry's an inspiring quote which came from my OBS instructor, sharon afew years ago. she wrote that down at the back of the photo which we took together. =) winnie had her reservations on outdoor activites then u see. now she cheers herself on with that whenever she encounters anything difficult...=)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 138: so happening~~

2005-01-28T23:35:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

wenhua rang to say she didn't 've a calculator for our QA paper in the evening so i sourced around and got one for her [thks to all who offered to help! =)]. when i told her the matter was settled i requested for a can of abalone to be included as a form of repayment, hiahh hiahh. =)

studied alittle before i left for school. met up with my projectmates and we finally completed our TMS report! i zealously volunteered to do the editing, i love to scroll read cut paste amend rephrase and polish projects, gee. =)

saw eileen again and she gave me a big bear hug, hee. =) mr.rashibalan kept his words and really added more questions in our tutorial. nevertheless we drove him mad by splitting the work up and getting everything done choppe-choppe-ly before we roamed the net again. =)

jieying visited fc6 for lunch and i brought her around the School of Business after that. =) she said SB looks more like an institution to study in compared to the other side of the polytechnic, haahaahaa. =) we viewed the Language Department, the Biz.IT library, MLT12 as well as the teachers' offices. =)

came across mrs.sharon.tan in the elevator and she said i looked very different now. guess we haven't bump into each other for quite some time, hehh. =) told her maybe cny's round the corner that's why, gee. =) mrs.tan also asked how come i didn't sign up for the china ITP trip. i brought the matter over with a wide smile. =)

anyway i showed jieying which lecturer teaches my class what subject~. we saw mrs.moreira [jieying commented that she has the rich tai tai look and yes indeed she is one!] and mr.rashibalan [actually he has a very nice name of anthony.ranasinghe pronounced as runner-singer but dalee came up with rashibalan for him and we got so used to calling him that~~]. also pointed mr.ds out to her, laalaalaa. =)

we were released early from our BLAW lecture so we could proceed to our respective classroom promptly for our QA CA. our invigilator's kc's PTN~. he's nice he waited for me to end off my final working before he started collecting our papers [i was seated right infront by the door u see~~]. =)

rushed to meet denise later. we had dinner in MagicWok CityHall, ordered hotplate black pepper chicken, sambal kangkong, thai green curry [which tasted really weird~~], as well as cereal prawns [yumilicious were they!]. =) apparently four dishes were too much for us two girls, we were super duper bloated by the time we walked out of the eatery. =)

both of us visited brenda at TCC after much strolling here and there. =) had ice chococinno while denise got herself hazelnut freppe. we shared a warm lava cake [i tell u it's smashingly heavenly, hohoho~!] too.=) denise needed help with her chemistry assignment, and i was so paisehh i could only assist her on the acid reaction equation part; the rest had long been thrown back to the rightful owners in CGS [my science teachers~!] . =(

anyway we chatted and chatted, and ms.tan took her GD88 out to take afew pictures of the both of us, hurray!!! =) i don't know if i've ever mentioned it before, but Panasonic GD88 produces great images~! continued to blabber our way to the train station. denise's returning to Melbourne on sunday...=/ we wonder what each other'd be like the next time we meet up again, which's roughly in nine months to come. denise mentioned she's gonna give her wardrobe a mini revamp and we could compare and see whose outfit's more revealing then, haahaa...=)

dashed back fast and returned kc her calculator. she's so sweet she made her way down to meet me at my bus stop. =) we chatted for round 20min before i apologised and ran off-- my parents were out for the evening and i had to beat them in reaching home, 'else it'd be another grilling session for me again ~shugs~.

sugar sugar dreams masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 137: date me date me!

dear masie,

hohoho, we had EPI with mrs.moreira and once again, she made us laughed like 95% of the time. =) we did a study on datetiquette by holding discussions related to the topic in two big groups, and expressed our opinions on the age we think is suitable to enter into a casual and serious relationship, on who should control and pay during a date, what turn us off in a date, whether guys should send the lady home after that etc etc~. it was fun comparing each other's views against our own ones. =)

mrs.moreira brought up something which've always been on my mind. i'm glad we share the same way of thinking. actually i told myself i'd marry the second guy who carries the simple act out for me [ms's the first, but he did that out of context of a very good friend, we're still the best buddies, laalaalaa~~]. =)

there was the role-playing too! on how a guy should ask a girl out and how the female should reject politely if she's not too keen. =) we also touched on what to do and say when we attend wedding dinners, funeral wakes [the sum to be placed in a red packet should never be that of an odd no. figure; it goes the other way round for a white envelope~~], and formal business meetings [what we should include in the small chat so as to warm the guest up and make the person feel comfortable~~]. ooh i wonder who's the ace who introduced EPI into our syllabus i want to send him or her a big wet kiss, hehh hehh. =)

saw eileen dear during lunch and we chatted abit. =)

attended mr.momo's CSB tutorial after that. it was by far the most enjoyable session we ever had. =) kangming dozed off in class and mr.momo went "i think we've lost a classmate...", haahaahaa. =) he mentioned his son used to nod off halfway through the meal in the evening-- he was primary one then and afternoon classes tend to drain energy away from kids. =)

btw mr.momo's so homely he takes his children out to the Botanic Gardens on a very frequent basis we wonder whether they're ever tired of the place, gee. =) and he reports to work as early as 6 in the morning so he's able to clear everything by 1700hrs in order to spend more time with his loved ones. =) aww... guys who commit themselves faithfully to their family're sooo charming! =)

prepared for my QA tutorial during chinese class so i could concentrate on my CA revision at home. was scratching my head fiddling with the calculator bi-cek-ly at a corner when the teacher saw what i was doing. luckily she walked away without saying anything, heehee. =)

closed my eyes to've a short rest onboard the bus back when something deadly familiar hit my ears. it was THE ringtone... the unbroken chorus of our favourite without me... the one-in-four-million ringtone which i, as luck would have it, possess as well [take my head and chop it off if anybody knows anyone else who has that!]... it was MY BROTHER!!! scurried off my seat to join chongy at the middle of the bus and we walked back home together later. =)

sweet dreams masie!

PS: happy birthday serene [teo]!!!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 136: i'm quite an attention seeker~~

2005-01-24T23:17:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

we had TMS tutorial without nannytan as she overslept~. poor winnie got ranted at again by her dearest classmates for the burps she gave out continuously over lunch [well well, they've no idea how shiok it feels to let the gas out ALOUD from the mouth~~], hee. =)

popped into the library to work on our respective portion of our PD report after that. am glad i'm halfway through mine already [the mister whom we interviewed took sooo long to reply my email~!]. guess i'll just beef it up alittle here and there with some use of my gabrahh skills before i end it off with an appropriate pump of chim vocabularly from one of the most handy websites available, yay yay. =)

during BLaw tutorial i was pretty much drawn to mr.ds's mobile phone. kangming gave me a fright when he probed him for the model no. as the former asked whether we had any questions regarding our work. what a relief~. =)

silly winnie got her head knocked against the door of the lift while trying to be amusing. and we all couldn't stop laughing over the act. =) had to keep rubbing to prevent swelling, ain't i clumsy...=)

headed PopularBookstore and got my sis some stationery before returning home. received a sophisticated organiser for the year 2005 from our insurance agent, it's something which i've always wanted, wheee!!! =)

buhbye masie!

PS: the ballad sung by show and xiaoS is getting on my nerves-- chongy repeats the song over the winamp at length, rachel hums the tune all the time, and the radio station plays its commercial endlessly, urghh...
PSS: happy birthday kenny!!!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 135: a short day...

2005-01-23T23:57:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

lazy winnie woke up late again today. =) mom went Bugis shopping for crystals with chongy while i sat infront of our PC burning VCDs with rachel. =) we chatted with uncle wor at the same time too-- he needed help from professional investigators like us sisters with something important, hohoho. =)

settled down to revise my work before michelle rang for SOS. rushed over to the information counter within half an hour and felt rather awkward-- i was to run a tsunami donation booth but the tee i wore had prints which read, "Ouchy! I got grouchy!". we all had a good laugh over that as i put up the most angelic look, greeting thanking and smiling at kind souls who came forward with their contributions. =) i drop in a ten-dollar-bill as well, felt it's safer to present donations via more recognised organisations such as SingaporePolytechnic NTUC and of course, CapitalandCommercial. =)

had a rather full dinner thks to boss and aunty juliet. =) and i was proud of myself when my big boss came by, asking how's school lately. she said it was a good choice made when i told her i took up SupplyChainMgt as my option of studies. =) a sad thing she's transferring to the HQ soon~. i still remember my job interview with her which lasted close to an hour [we ended up chatting merrily, and she shared with me a couple of her experiences on her poly education!] two years back vividly, she's a really nice lady. =)

night night masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 134: selamat hari raya!

2005-01-22T09:49:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i woke up very late yesterday, ate abit and cleared some of my stuffs before i carried on with my CA revision. =)

had a wonderful BBQ stingray feast in the evening with uncle and aunty lai, uncle alfred and aunty angie, cousin bryan [uncle wor played peek-a-boo with us and refused to've his photo taken in rachel's mobile!], daddy mommy and rachel [gorgor went partying at Zouk!!!], yay yay. =)

ohh btw i'm crazy over sambal chilli lately [if u've known me well enough u'll understand how i break out in cold sweat when it comes to eating food which're spicy... but i'm so stressed up nowadays i take in chilli as a channel to vent all my frustration~~]~.

we ordered desserts and visited Chinatown after that~! boy were the streets heavily congested with human traffic! the group of us just walked along with the crowd, didn't really stop by the many many stalls selling many many items though, hehh. =)

i used to detest going Chinatown, esp when cny's drawing near but now i think it's not bad taking a feel of the oriental atmosphere. it's a once-a-year thing afterall~.

good morning masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 133: class phototaking day!

2005-01-21T01:36:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

mr.rashibalan swore he's gonna add in more questions for my group's tutorial in particular from next week on, since we're always done with ours ahead of the rest, gee. =) i think he's had enough of passing snide remarks as illustrated below whenever he walks around the computer lab realising we're all hooked onto the internet~.

"I suppose this is more interesting than my PD..." [shd he come across a student visiting a sophisticated website~~];

"So how many friends've u made today??" [with regards to those who log in to their Friendster accounts~~];

"I see u enjoy playing golf and other what-'ve-u-gots... What's new??" [janice dalee kangming shimei qiuling and soowei're sooo into online gaming!!!];

"And u're reading at our dear Principal's message again!"[witty winnie's usually fast enough to return to our SP webby and she acts blurr before mr.rashibalan finishes commenting at others and reaches her terminal~~]. =)

met jieying for lunch at 1pm. we headed fc1 but the place was too crowded so we decided to try our luck at fc3. =) jieying had a dory fillet burger with fries while i ordered a breakfast set consisting of a belgium waffle sausage plus egg and ham, with a scoop of raspberry ripple ice cream over my waffle, hehh. =)

the uncle made our day when he came delivering us the food with an additional scoop of blueberry ripple ice cream [we gave it two thumbs up!] for our savor since i took such a long time to contemplate which between the two flavours should i choose from, wow wow wow...=)

but some of the maple syrup landed on my blouse n cardi when i poured the maple syrup over my waffle!!! boohoohoo...=(

jieying took half a day off from work so i walked her to somewhere near the train station after lunch. she planned to visit NYP openhouse as they do cater courses for A-level students. =)

carried on with abit of TMS report when i returned to the Biz.IT library. then we got ready for our class phototaking session-- those who had to put on their lip gloss [shimei and janice~~] added shine to their lips, while the rest of us just neatened our hair and chked our smiles~. i tried to wash off the maple syrup stain to no avail...=/

did a quick straw poll next and found out that everyone was actually rather reluctant to sit next to me [we don't share the common dislike of mr.dennis.sim u see~~]. but hehh eventually i managed to squeeze my butt in between wati and soowei's on the top row, with momma janice being pulled to sit directly infront by urs truly as she's tall enough to cover the aftermath of my lunch. =)

mr.photographer was anxious to wrap up for the day since my class was the last to be photoshot. he took our pictures so abruptly as if he was rushing for some sale in town [?!], ill ill. =/

chatted among ourselves during QA lecture [we've completely given up hope on the module~~]. weiliang who sat beside mentioned their ITP's going to be as long as half a year! poor SCM students like us only've six weeks of practical learning for our job attachment...=(

visited WestMall again when school was over-- rachel needed to get a new comb. trotted back home from Bt.Batok train station once more. =)

goodnight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 132: once in a while it's nice to take a break...

2005-01-20T23:40:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i'm proud to DECLARE my latest Millionaire Mega-Platinum status for my depository with NeopianBank in Neopets.com at 0841hrs yesterday morning~! it means i've come to a neat pile of 1million.NP for my savings already, wheee!!! =)

yes yes yes i'm still into the virtual pet site at a glam age of 18+, hiahh hiahh hiahh~~

went swimming when i was done with the internet and had my tan topped up, yay yay. =) called upon sweelian at the agency to claim both sabrina and my pay before settling down at somewhere quiet to study for my BLaw CA. =)

much as i enjoy my friends' company, i'm more than comfortable with shopping by myself. =) rewarded hardworking winnie with a Fila shoebag and got chongy a garment baggie from PlanetTravellers.MarinaSq [they were 'vin a sale there~!] as well as a copy of 17 from Kinokuniya.Bugis [a complimentary RedEarth goodie bag's redeemable with every purchase of the magazine at any Kino outlet!]. =) picked up some yam and sweet potato desserts for my folks and headed home after that, ooo... what a peaceful day. =)

zzz tight masie!

PS: felt terrible after reading somebody's bloggie... i'm dreadfully sorry, really...=/

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 131: movie mambo~~

2005-01-18T01:26:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i met up early with my projectmates to work on our TMS report today. saw kc on the bus and we chatted our way to school. =)

mrs.moreira enjoys referring to the names of her students whenever she gives examples during lectures. and she brought mine up for the second time this afternoon, hee. =)
was the first to leap out of MLT11 when PD lecture ended and i dashed to meet rachel at WestMall. she treated me to the Santa movie a couple of weeks ago and i thought i'd reciprocate with the complimentary KungFu.Hustle passes i had. =) the show commenced at 1710hrs and my sis was sweet to pick up our tickets along with the popcorn combo beforehand. =)

we scrumbled our way up the theatre [the lights had already gone off by then~~] and just grabbed two seats by the middle row. both of us ended up laughing at each other more than concentrating on watching the film cos of a silly popcorn joke [btw chongchong said EngWah cinemas've got the nicest tasting popcorn across the sunny island! we agree pretty much with him, just that i think they've the most no. of popcorn seeds added in as well~~] and i burped so LOUDLY in the middle of something which wasn't funny [blame it on the very fizzy sprite!!!], haahaahaa. =)
after the show i revealed the auntified trait of mine while we were in BreadTalk and knocked upon a kiosk outside the place while talking to rachel, whoohoo~! now she thinks it's sooo embarassing to go out with me, laalaalaa. =) managed to persuade my little sis to walk home with me after that, and we couldn't stop pointing and laughing at a guy who resembled aaron kwok from the back, hohoho. =)

sugar sugar dreams masie!
PS: daddy and i adore the condo TheJade which stands just beside Bt.Batok train station, we definitely gonna get ourselves an apartment there when my father strikes lottery~!
PSS: i find i've been more appreciative of my timetable now that six weeks've gone by~. late as we're dismissed i can still head out after school; it just adds alittle to the growing fatigue. =)

PSSS: i've been a lovely girl who turns in early these days!!!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 130: puke-y morning~~

2005-01-17T01:16:00.000+08:00

dear masie,
i received an sms from qiuling early in the morning mentioning she won't be attending school for the day and that i shouldn't think of her lest... [shan't continue on-- she almost made me throw my breakfast up with what she said!!! hehh i'm sooo going to adopt the line and use it to disturb my close friends next time~~]. =)
we saw mr.dennis.sim in fc6 during lunch and everyone was like "winnie!!! DS DS!!!", haahaahaa. =) had a common tutorial with a class from DAC [boy were the Accountancy students quiet!] in the afternoon and my class went all defiant and settled down in our own groups leaving mr.sim very maluated since he insisted us to do the military count again~.
proceeded to WestMall to collect both jieying and my skirts, but hers was not in an excellent condition so i requested for another piece. the person told me to return on another day. shrugged and walked home with a cup of strawberry ice blended after that. =)

sweet dreams masie!
PS: i realised both my BLaw teachers like to include the word "essentially" when they speak. well my pet phrase [these days~~] is "What is U prue-blem [What's ur problem]?", hohoho~.
PSS: i burped loudly for a grand total of six times. record courtesy of janice and dalee. =)
But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 129: one does what one can...

2005-01-15T03:23:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

gee i got better over the night and headed the market with mommy in the morning. =) we had lunch together before i reported to work. =)

sabrina was dazzlingly dressed as she had a wedding dinner to attend in the evening~. the salesmen were at it again, but they didn't succeed in making any conversation with us 'cos we shot them a deadly come-closer-n-u'll-get-it look before they opened their mouth.

jieying passed by to say hi when she was done with her visit at the optical shop! we chatted quite abit and she told me something which i didn't know bout NUS. =)

helped michelle to clear her stuff at the office when i looked her up after 10pm. we were both sooo restless by the time we called it a day she offered to take me home via cab. =/

hee guess what guess what, it's Share-A-Thought moment again!!! following on it's a little story which i goped from a blog randomly. =) the author got it extracted from the book Chicken Soup for the Unsinkable Soul...

It was a chilly fall day when the farmer spied the little sparrow lying on its back in the middle of the field. The farmer stopped its plowing, looked down at the frail, feathered creature and inquired, ※Why are you lying with your legs up like that?§

※I heard the sky is going to fall today,§ replied the little sparrow.

The old farmer chuckled. ※And I suppose your spindly little legs can hold up the whole sky?§

※One does what one can,§ replied the plucky sparrow.

well well well, hope that inspired u alittle. =) it's been quite a while since i last got myself a serving of ChickenSoup; i remember i used to enjoy reading the series of books especially when i was in secondary two~.

ohiyo masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 128: so weak but...

2005-01-14T23:41:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

wasn't feeling my best today. dizzy spells all over. neither the seafood soup nor the hot milo or dalee's Yoko-Yoko could help. =( was allowed to leave halfway through mr.raj's QA tutorial and took a cab home to rest. =/

take care masie!

PS: my classmates're a really great bunch [well, maybe except for two or three of them~~]! u get touched by the little things they offer to help out with when u're down~. thk u all! =)

PSS: was delighted to learn that gorgor had the song i've been searching high and low for to no avail whenever i visit KTV lounges added into our winamp collection [thku chongy u've no idea how much ilu!!!] . =)

it's a duet sang by miriam yeung [Y] together [T] with tony leung [L] found in the soundtrack of the film Sound Of Colors. =) i didn't catch the show but i fell in the love with the song when gorgor visited the official webby for the movie sometime one year plus back i think... <<譎僧>>

episode 127: our reunion dinner~~

2005-01-14T02:21:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

school was fine and i managed to meet kc to borrow QA tutorial answers from her [had been assigned to present the hardest question for our homework ONCE AGAIN, ill ill ill...] before she entered the examination room. =)

met huibing at CityHall and we walked around while waiting for the others to join us after work. =) really appreciate those who turned up for the dinner gathering-- huibing qinging weili and jieying [who wasn't feeling too well~~]. =) a pity kc needed to revise for her papers while jiahui had commitments at home. =/ we decided to stop by ThaiExpress in CityLink to've our meal [jieying and i were rather fearful since the curry smell was extremely pungent in the restaurant~~] . =)

i read bout the omelette prawn rice from mr.teng's bloggie and was determined to give that a try~. it's one of the few dishes which're non-spicy. =) jieying ordered the same as i did while qingning had a helping of black olives mee, weili a plate of spicy horfun and huibing a bowl of laksa. =)

the photo-taking craze took off on our way to the Esplanade after dinner, and we joked and chatted as we walked. =) chanced upon a funky piece of artwork standing magnificiently round the main entrance of the durian dome and took turns to take pictures in pairs [Permutation & Combination was a pain when i studied A.maths!]. later we went up the rooftop to snap more shots in groups of four~. =) mmm i wonder if u've come across the old chinese saying which has it that u should never take pictures in threes lest the friendship'll break [note the word three and break sounds similar in mandarin~~]. i didn't know bout it until gina pointed out so, and from then on being substantially superstitious i've always been cautious with the no. of people posing before the camera, hehh. =)

weili thought she'd return home first as she had a long day so the rest of us headed SuntecCity. =) there was a sale going on in DorothyPerkins [I LOVE THEIR CLUTCHBAGS!!!] and Topshop [jieying and i tried a couple of tops there~~]!

eventually we parted with qinning taking a bus back with huibing and jieying myself by train~. but the both of us weren't quite done with clothes trying we decided to walk in Series CityLink and carried on with the kick! witty winnie reached out for the cam in her bag and started capturing images of herself in the apparels since the music playing instore was blasting loud enough to cover the sound which mr.pl produces [jieying nearly strangled me for being so vain, haahaahaa~~]. hee we each got a light aqua skirt with frills in the end, hohoho [so ecstatic! it's been eons since i last purchased the same wear with a friend!!! and putting that on together makes us look as if we were two blue cool duckies~~]!

goodnight masie!

PS: read qinning's blog entry earlier and was glad she enjoyed the meet up. =) friendship's something so incredible!

PSS: i hear the newly revamped Tangs has got super duper huge changing rooms designed in various themes i reckon it'd be fun to take pictures there [don't get me wrong, i'm not a pervert lahh; i just like to look out for fresh places where i can play around with a camera~~]. =)

PSSS [i]: on the train to town i came to realise from a friend that two of my classmates've actually been badmouthing bout me... to those in their clique and ms.ok as well. no wonder the latter seemed to've quite a drastic change in her opionion of me a couple of months ago.
i shan't elaborate on what the girls said since the stories were sooo untrue. was initially very mad at longhaired-haggie and ms.blubber, but i got over the matter over the week-- jealousy hits hard at people who suffer from a sense of emptiness and i feel sorry for the victims~ .

"So, be generous with your beloved opponents. Give them endless gifts of information and knowledge. Let them pick up clues. Let them be confident in their reading of you. Let them draw clear, definite conclusions.

... And let them all be wrong."

PSS [ii]: don't push it, winnie bites when stirred. =)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 126: the mock interview

2005-01-12T01:05:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

we had EPI with mrs.moreira and all of us enjoyed the class so much! mrs.moreira finds it a pleasure to disturb the guys and andrew was made the lead victim for the day~. we learnt skincare and deportment-- from why we shouldn't resort to squeezing pimples to buying scents suitable for our bodies to standing up, sitting down [do u know that u're actually giving one the impression that u're interested in him or her when u cross ur legs towards the person as the both of u converse?? =)] and picking things up from the floor the proper way... etc etc. =) we also shifted outside to practise walking up and down the stairs the male and female manner respectively. =)

proceeded to the library where we prepared for our interview and dealt with the list of questions which mr.ong'd probably probe. we then reported to the computer lab next to our tutorial classroom and waited to be called up. i've been through a number of interviews previously so i wasn't as tense as janice who almost suffered a nervous breakdown. andrew assured us that things weren't that bad when he was done with his turn [btw we were all dressed in our corporate wear and both kangming and andrew've very cool ties, those metallically-colored ones!]. =)

mine went pretty alright, except for the part where i was stumped by the question on how much did i know bout the company [the firm didn't exist 'cos i made my job advertisement up!!! in the end i gabrahh-ed and brought it over with something sooo incomplete, boohoohoo...=(] and i could feel a sudden surge in the blood circulation round my cheeks at that time. =/

after the grilling session was over mr.ong told me i could improve alittle more on my voice level, and he shared with me his two-day long interview experience at 3M Technologies, gee. =)

got back the trial paper i attempted the last week during chinese lesson-- i qualify for the actual examination but i won't be forking anymore money out for the course; it's good enough to know that my standard's there. =)

sugar sugar dreams masie!

PS: someone mentioned our names sound nice when put together and i share the same sentiment too...=)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 125: i turn cranky when hungry!

2005-01-11T23:03:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i visited the swimming pool in the morning before meeting my projectmates [janice qiuling dalee and kangming~~] in the library to work on our TMS report. nannytan found us some details of a liner shipping firm off the shelf and i dumped the whole chunk of company profile onto our Word document with abit of editing here and there. =)

saw kc during lunch and disturbed her. =) had an extremely huge appetite probably due to the swim i had earlier on so i bought sandwiches to fill my stomach after gorging down a plate of charsiew rice. =)

shan't go into further details but i made everybody laugh in the toilet, hehh hehh. =) and on our way to MLT10 qiuling wondered when i'd stop burping. =) dozed off during mrs.moreira's lecture again and handed salinah my copy of BLaw handout [took hers unknowingly and wrote alot in ink the day before, so paisehh...=/] when PDWM lecture came.

hee, kangming asked mr.rashibalan how come he's always wearing the same kind of white shirt to work; the latter replied and told us he's poor that's why. i probed and questioned whether he's got a closet full of shirts of that same design and color and he said i got that right on! haahaahaa. =)

marched over to the train station with wati and soowei after our PDWM lecture and caught a glimpse of korean star won.bin at somewhere near my place! bought a very professional looking clear holder file to store my certs required for the mock interview the next day and went on to compare prices of shoe bags available at different stores. mmm i think i should be getting a black one from Fila. =)

michelle had sabrina and my timesheets authorised and we chatted with each other for quite a long while-- there's an outbreak of chicken flu in Vietnam right now and she's not sure whether she should still go ahead with her overseas trip. =/

sweet dreams masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 124: winnie da super sonic hedgehog!

2005-01-11T22:11:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

this's incredible [and scary too!]-- it took me mere 19min to get ready for school this morning as ms.ok's TMS tutorial takes off at 9 and it was already 8.25am by the time i jumped out of my bed!!! managed to report to the computer lab on the dot at 0915hrs sharp [our teacher makes things difficult for students who arrive any later~~] u couldn't imagine the strong sense of pride and achievement within me. =)

speaking of which, i discovered i'm actually capable of getting things done in a shorter amount of time recently; i used to be stuck in the shower for 45min perpetually but now i'm able to get out of the bathroom in 20-25min's time. then i take 15min lesser to dress up before i leave my place in the morning instead of the usual 60min. and i learnt to blog faster too, heehee. =)

we had a mini open book test in class. the marks we get don't count in anything-- they're just for the purpose of gauging where we stand based on how well we know of what's been taught so far. i'd be doomed if it was a CA. =/

during lunch shimei and i were thrilled to learn bout the girls' school background which we both share [she's from CHIJ St Theresa's while winnie's a Crescentian!] we started displaying loads of affection for each other and got the appetite of the rest affected, haa! =) btw besides the abalone-bird's.nest sisters, we're now also known as the meimei-s; with shimei being shimei, and winnie as qingmei [that's the name of a character in a popular idol drama, aj thinks i resemble the changed qingmei a whole lot, and i couldn't agree more with that~~]. =)

the eight of us then gave our SCM noticeboard a new lift next. and winnie, as clumsy as she's always been, broke wati's heart into pieces when she snapped the huge styrofoam-ed letter 'M' into two by accident [i'm terribly sorry i didn't mean it...=/]!!! =(

got myself involved in cutting of newspaper articles later and dalee called my name aloud when mr.dennis.sim walked by. there was a round of big hoo-haas created by my other classmates too! this's something problematic when u let people know bout ur crush; they make things so obvious in open~.

qiuling was somewhat disturbed by the end of jennifer aniston and brad.pitt's marriage. hehh for me i'm still very optimistic bout tying the knot i'll do just that with the most gorgeous looking Bangladeshi worker round my estate after i graduate. =)

shimei shared an article on the case of dunking practice on commando trainees with the class over BLaw. the one-year trial had come to an end lately and mr.sim went on elaborating on how authorities like SAF shrinks from responsibility first when things go wrong. =(

we were then split up into different groups using the military manner [it's funny how guantat roars to add in sound effect each time someone addresses mr sim as dino.sim~~] and i formed one with salinah and novita. =) was rather taken aback when the former gave a comment saying i didn't look very local. but she couldn't quite figure out where then do i look like i was from when inquired, hehh. =)

we discussed bout our lecturers following on and unanimously agreed that nana's the duplicate of pinocchio's father while mr.sim's a replica of barney in flintstones, hohoho. =)

received six missed calls from karen and michelle in the evening-- the information counter was shorthanded once again. karen's so sweet she stayed back and waited for me to hand me a pair of movie passes for Kungfu.Hustle, whoohoo~! =)

goodnight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 123: awful weekend...

2005-01-10T14:39:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

on saturday sabrina and i were condemned to a purple eccentric looking redemption booth positioned a great distance away from our sophisticated information counter. and we were 'neighbours' with a loathsome group of salesmen who wanted to befriend us [come on they could father intelligent daughters as old as the both of us're if they're blessed and fortunate enough~~]. they tried to make conversations and offered us mineral water, ill ill ill. =/

to add the heat on, i saw janice's eyecandy in the most obiang outfit. he put on something so uncomplimentary sabrina almost couldn't believe it when i told her that guy's supposed to be the school beau of our business block [she only caught the back view of him by the time i got over the stun and brought the matter up~~].

rang nannytan to tell her bout it immediately and she was equally taken aback [hey i swear i'm not kidding okay!]. half an hour later xiaohei trotted past us again with a big trolley filled with groceries, and this time round i acted fast enough to alert sabrina of him [hohoho~~]! but i think he saw me pointing at him and then the both of us giggling, haahaahaa whatever lahh~. =) anyway we made a bold deduction-- that he probably drives or might be staying somewhere nearby since he was heading the car park and couldn't be bothered to wear anything more presentable [hiahh hiahh that'd be a treat to hi-tea at the smoothie bar janice!!!]. =)

later in the afternoon sabrina and i realised that the arrangement of placing us at somewhere ulu-ated's actually not a bad thing afterall-- we get to help ourselves to an unlimited amount of ice cream and self-entertainment was achieved when we chatted with each other [ohh we decided to ignore the group of uncles~~], munching on yummy mexican buns at the same time, gee. =)

saw many familiar faces like cheezi and my ex-neighbours who walked past but i didn't try to catch their attention or anything. later when i was back at the information counter i chanced upon my third uncle and auntie along with my two pretty lil' cousins! =)

______________________

on sunday i visited the market with mommy! we had lunch before i rushed to work. =) both sabrina and i were really grateful for each other's company [it's sensationally embarassing sitting alone at the AA booth~] as the mall was especially packed with a huge crowd~.

depreciation of clothes these days' terrible. nannytan who was in town called to tell me bout the drastic drop in price of the tube top i got not long ago [it's now 50% off the rack, urghhhh!!!], and my heart sank so much deeper. =(

jieying passed by and waved a hi when i finally returned to help out at the information counter . =) and michelle's visiting Vietnam at the end of the month!!! she joked and claimed she's gonna help her brother search for a potential bride when she gets there, haahaahaa!

night night masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 122: "ass-oooooo..."

2005-01-07T22:36:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

we attended mr.rashibalan's lecture before we had our QANL tutorial [QA's a complicated module which i badly need SOS in. =(]

TMS lecture was a happening one. kevan who sat beside me couldn't stop lamenting on the loss of a client since he had to reject one of his calls halfway through as ms.ok was staring at him [he just started his own business of running a tuition agency lately, in fact he plans to go into the line of domestic help too; he's currently looking out for a suitable venue for his office and i suggested heartland malls. these days the trend for some in school's to try carving a niche for themselves while they're still studying. i don't know, i'd never do anything like that without much detailed consideration; there're many risks involved in setting up a business... u need to weigh them sharply against the estimated turnover besides working a sufficient amount of capital out... and a must-'ve is the mentality of an entrepreneur; u can't go far if u keep moaning bout any opportunity lost u've got to be far-sighted~~].

during our break janice dalee kangming shimei and soowei headed outside while i rested my head on the table. then the bunch of them didn't dare to enter the MLT for fear that our dearest ms.ok'll blow her top as they took such a long time to queue for their food at the bazaar. they decided to skip the other half of the lecture with kangming and i communicating through the wall via sms~.

i started to break out in cold sweat as the space around me was pretty empty without my friends and ms.ok kept asking kevan for his attention. =/ after the lecture wati qiuling and i carried our belongings [all eight of ours~~] outside and handed them to their respective owners who were enjoying yoghurt and stuff at the third level, what a relief. =)

saw benmin on my way to the train station and we chatted alittle. he looks totally different now that his hair's dyed black, more hip i say. =) btw he's taking a course related to DNA studies for his G.E.M and i think that's sooo cool!

met D at JurongPoint for a nice movie after school. =) we got a complimentary cup of Ben&Jerry's choc chip cookie dough ice cream from the purchase of the tickets. while waiting for the movie to commence we just walked around the place. were both full after the ice cream [we got another cup of B&J's from our munchie combo!] cum popcorn delight in the cinema, ulahh-lahh~. =)

D's going school hunting overseas next week and might decide to settle down there to pursue a degree should he finds a suitable university for further studies. we'll still be keeping in touch while he's away, thks to the whoever who came up with the very impressive technology of smart messages [global], where greetings can be teleported from one place to another in the world within split seconds. =)

zzz tight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 121: http://www.tigerbeer.us/horoscope/

2005-01-07T08:13:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

got the URL above while i was doing some blog-hopping...=)

You have an unusually strong sense of what is useful and what is pointless. Your natural attention to detail and devotion to duty make you an able and valued worker in any business or profession [spot on!]. Your ability to discriminate between what is healthy and unhealthy, combined with a compassion and sensitivity, gives you an awareness of how every individual's well-being contributes to the whole.
Unlike many who share your eastern symbol, you may greatly benefit from your family connections [u bet! i love daedae and my family...=)]. You may choose to live near family members, and enjoy each other's interests and network of friends. Your love life is likely to be closely connected to your work environment. Through experience you have probably learned to curb an excessively critical attitude [bingo bingo!!], and now live and let live. In general, you get along best with Capricorns, Pisceans, Taureans, and Cancerians [is it?? ~raises an eyebrow~ as a matter of fact both dalee and i who got the same reading don't open our social circle to Pisceans for a particular reason. we're alright with the other three though. =) actually my bestest girl pallies belong to the horoscope of Taurus Virgo and Scorpio~~].
Your career is greatly enhanced by your strong work ethic, and your holistic view. In your professional life, you may also have an excellent sense of business cycles [hee thks but i'd be more than contented to be a happy housewife in future really~~].

good day masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 120: simple day

2005-01-07T07:05:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

mr.rashibalan added in an extra question [and a looong plus difficult one at that!] intentionally for all of us during tutorial as we tend to surf the net when we're done with our usual ones. =(

on my way to meet jieying for lunch i saw this guy who'd call my name aloud whenever we bump into each other from afar and wanted to avoid him since i prefer to stay low profile in school but too late... he went "winnie~~!" before i could dodge or anything. =/

had thai chicken rice with BBQ sauce while jieying got herself a jap bowl at fc4. =) these days brave winnie has started taking spicy food-- she LOVES BBQ stingray with LOADS of SAMBAL CHILLI [!!!] but the tom.yam soup seemed alittle off her limit...=/ both of us couldn't stop babbling bout the reunion dinner next week. =)

climbed back to School Of Business where i joined my project mates for discussion after that. wenhua sat with us during lecture [ohh yes kindly give me a break with regards to mr.pineappletart pls~~]. we chatted and chatted, then they all bought japanese pizza and yoghurt [dalee and i both gave out a bad shiver when we put that in our mouth-- it tasted UTTERLY SOUR~~]

ohiyo masie~!
PS: i feel so gay [happy~]...=)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 119: eventful day

2005-01-06T01:47:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i met up with janice dalee kangming and guantat earlier in the library to work on our PDWM CA. we've to come up with a report on warehouse management with close examination of the facilities operations as well as the future direction of the industry by week8. i volunteered to take up the toughest portion on future direction since everyone's zealous bout the project. =)

we had a quick lunch before our CSB CA commenced. the test was quite alright, considered my late stay up the night before to get the memorising work completed [almost word for word~~], gee. =)

during our break we headed the bazaar and ate tako paochi. dalee had yoghurt and it tasted weird cos she added three kinds of fruits together, haahaa. =) mr.ong saw me driving kangming mad with all the popping of "what-cha-u-doin'?? what-cha-u-doin'??"s in an act-cute manner when we returned class and he gave us a "what's up~~" look, hehh. =) i think he's gonna 've quite an impression of me [as someone violent and rough~~] since he also caught me trying to stab dalee with a pen from behind afew weeks back during our first tutorial, hohoho! =)

anyway mr.ong let us off early when he was done with presenting us a clip of do's and don't's in an interview. the show was highly entertaining we ended up laughing alot, especially during the negative example part. =)

attended my chinese class and scurried home to get my documents before rushing off to BBDC for two sessions of theory practice till 2030hrs. i aim to complete all the eleven books of questions before i attempt my evaluation test now i've six more to go. =/

Ch.8 aired the final episode of the Romancing.HongKong serial and the ending was so sweet i give it ten stars out of ten! =) received a call from eileen dear next and as usual we hollered at each other for not gaigai-ing together for a long looong time. =)

sugar sugar dreams masie!

PS: we've got a mock job interview with mr.ong individually next week and i'm sooo looking forward to that!!!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 118: perky's the right word...

2005-01-04T11:46:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

sweet [and half-awoken] winnie visited the wet market with mommy early in the morning at 7+am [we had breakfast together, wheee~!] and headed the swimming pool for a quick dip after that [it's been a month since i permed my hair so i can swim now!!!]. =)

put the space management i learnt from mom [when she stacks the poultry seafood fruits and veggies neatly up our mini trolley~~] into practical use when i tried to cram in my big school bag along with my A4-sized file, fresh clothes plus toiletries besides my good old trusty pair of Converse into a regular 40cents locker [u shd see how i brilliantly did that!], hehh. =)

weather's been fine and alright these two days; i didn't manage to get a tan on my bod but at least it wasn't raining. =) i bathed, detangled my messy hair thoroughly ['ve school later~~] and proceeded with my after-sun hair and skin care regime. =)

paid up my mobile bill at the PostOffice [what a looong Q there was!] before i took a bus to school. saw suhfen and her classmates on my way up the lecture hall and said a quick hi-bye. =)

was sooo tired after the 10-lap swim i actually zzz-ed through mrs.moreira's funny BLaw lecture [oopsie!]. =/ caught up alittle with wenhua when we visited the bazaar together at the ground floor. =)

dropped by the library again after mr.rashibalan's class to blog, but hoolahh-hoo, i challenged the warning notice to log off and the system booked me out automatically [even before 6pm came!!!] so i lost my unsaved draft. =(

picked up a new exterior casing for my dear6610 in Clementi only to realise it's actually a very dark blue one [NOT BLACK!!!] when i got back home, guess it must've been the intensive lighting fixture of the shop that's behind my color hallucination...=(

sweet dreams masie! =)

PS: i don't know what pleases mom and dad since they aren't happy that i resemble a secondary3 lass when i don't dress up but when i do, they criticise and say i look so old. then they can't make up their mind when prompted for their expectation of an eighteen-year-old maiden. aren't my parents adorable! =)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 117: ...and we hit the Pretty-In-Tokyo outlet again

2005-01-03T23:49:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i suffered from monday blues in the morning although i was already in bed by 12am the night before. texted dalee to go ahead without me at the bus stop as i'd be taking my own sweet time to get ready for school.

ms.ok brought a mini cargo carrier and rotated it around the class during TMS. =) we thought our BLAW tutorial'd be called off since lecture was cancelled last week. went to look for mr.dennis.sim [poor thing he's now known as the.ass--D.S, dino sim, BB etc etc, thks to my classmates who came out with all sorts of nonsensical nicknames for him~~] to doublecheck but he wasn't in his room. later we saw him flirting with two female students [he's forever buying female students drinks ~rolls eyes~] in fc6.

after lunch wati and i knocked at his office again. took a closer look of his table and discovered he has a daughter by the name of naomi.sim! =) anyway he said he'll still go ahead with the tutorial.

rushed over to Bugis when school ended and met sabrina before we paid sweelian a visit at the agency. =) she doublechecked our timesheets, tallied the amounts and handed us our salary in CASH, whoohoo~! i robbed her of a thick fat stack of fresh timesheets before we left, yay yay. =)

sabrina and i then crossed over back to BugisJuction where we went wild over a particular neoprint machine [yes, that one with an internal couch~~]!!! we thought every shot was lovely we didn't know which four to select, heehee. =) afterwhich we took our time to decorate the pictures [the best thing bout the machine's that it gives u an unlimited amount of time to add anything; it only starts hurrying u when the next user slots coins in so it's best to patronise it during weekdays when crowd's lesser~~]. =)

we decided to walk around the place after that and careless winnie dashed back to the neoprint store where she had left her file behind at a corner. =/ we stepped in almost every shop selling accessories to take alook at the items they've. there's one selling very pinky outfits for ladies in the EDGE which we thought was pretty interesting. but the price of the apparels there're markedly steep.

both of us chatted alot [sabrina's quiet but her ability of absorbing my rattling of this-and-thats' just as solid and on par as kc's~] and sabrina shared some tips on painting nice smooth nails with me [i'm sooo going to try them out!!!]!

goodnight masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 116: hello 2005

2005-01-02T23:03:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i had a wonderful weekend snuggling merrily under my covers-- the weather's been comfy for one to zzz in. =)

zzz tight masie~!

PS: this year, will be a marvelous one. =)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 115: goodbye 2004~

2005-01-01T02:29:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i attended mr.rashibalan's lecture with dalee and kangming. janice didn't show up-- according to her it's silly to take two whole hours to and fro school for just an hour of lecture. =) i saw her wasted though, made a face at him and he returned one back, haahaa. =)

we came up with alot of noise cos mr.rashibalan was late. we thought he wasn't coming and that our trip to school'd turn a futile one. he approached and chatted with us halfway through the lecture when we were copying our notes. qiuling and i weren't present in his class the day before and he takes notice when students with good attendance get missing in action. qiuling explained to him saying she had a terrible diarrhoea while winnie simply gave him a big wide smile. =)

after lecture i proceeded to the library for the free access again but the place closes at 12.30pm so i hung around with wenhua and xiaoping while waiting for them to end their project discussion. =) apparently both their class and the yearbook projects've been keeping them up their necks as they've difficult groupmates to work with. after reading through their marketing project outline i realised our supply chain ones're actually easier to work on. =)

the three of us then walked to Dover station together. wenhua wanted to head the MarineParade CC near her place to deposit some of the new clothes she had previously. =)

i went home, caught some zzz and had dinner before i left home at 8pm to meet michelle and evelyn in CityLink. =) the two ladies wanted to fill their stomach but the Delifrance there had the different kinds of bread available for sandwiches all sold out. in the end we just took our time to stroll over to GV MarinaSquare where michelle collected the movie tickets she booked online while evelyn got the snacks-- nachos salted popcorn and ice lemon tea. salted popcorn's never my cup of tea so i helped myself to some of the nachos. =)

the show was a funny one, and we had the countdown to year2005 outside RafflesLink. =) saw allan at the train station and just exchanged greetings before i waved buhbye to the three of them who wanted to've coffee elsewhere-- i promised my parents i'd be back home as early as i could [didn't know the film was such a long one~!]. heaved a sigh of relief when i managed to catch the last feeder bus home. =)

happy new year masie!

PS: this year's been by far the most fabulous one in my life [gee do u hear that statement from me every 365days??]. =) here's special thks to special individuals, only limited to those whom i know visit my blog [so tell me u read my blog!!!]; the rest'll get a verbal thks from me when we see each other yahh?? =)

wenhua-- it's been great talking to u bout everything under the sun! especially those gossiping, haahaahaa...=) and did i tell u how much i adore those whacky analyses of urs?? =) when're we going to chiong k again?!! =)

janice-- yes momma those who start later might not be the ones who end the game last. it's too early to tell who has the last laugh since we still've got four more months to go, i'd be behind u so all the way nannytan yea?? =)

metro-- i understand that this year hasn't been a favourable one for u, hope the coming one'd be something better, best wishes and may u find the right angel u've been waiting for~.=)

denise-- conversing with u often sets me thinking deeper cos u're sooo mature, and i love to laugh along with u...=) am sooo looking forward to our dinner with gina before u fly back to Melbourne, hip hip hurray!!! =)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 114: lousy day

2004-12-30T14:09:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

i hate myself when i over-zzz. i woke up startled and began yelping cos it was already past 11am [!!]-- i missed mr.raj's make up lesson [ohh boy there goes my two participation marks, i stayed up till almost 5am the night before to complete his tutorial!]!!! to add on i had to give mr.rashibalan's class a skip since i couldn't make it to school on time...=(

did my wash up after i switched on my phone-- out came the caller alert msgs plus the smses... all from my classmates, which added to my sore mood [sorry to've kept u guys waiting!]. =/
i reached school at 12.40pm, saw shimei soowei and wati who were heading fc3. they said our BLaw lecture had been cancelled so school'd end at 4pm for us. =)

waited for jieying and brought her to fc6. =) over lunch she suggested turning our small gathering into a class affair thingy. i swallowed hard and told her we'll see how. =/

my dear classmates pointed out to mr.rashibalan that i was absent 'cos i couldn't wake up!!! nearly strangled dalee for selling me out, luckily mr.rashibalan's different from the other teachers-- he advised me to get my alarm clock changed, and that the cheaper it is the better it'll be, haahaahaa. =)

wenhua sat with us at the lecture hall! QANL's a disheartening module cos we couldn't understand what mr.raj was trying to put across. =( anyway i visited the library for free access after that. these days gorgor's been eating into my PC usage time slot at home. =(

metro popped by my station, said hi and dropped me a lollipop before zooming off. i'm glad he's still so popular among the other girls~. =)

sugar sugar dreams masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 113: my vertical body proportion

2004-12-29T22:02:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

we had EPI with mrs.moreira today and we discussed how to measure our own vertical body proportion!!! janice and i took down readings for each other in a choppe-choppe manner [both of our legs're longer than our bodies, whoohoo~!] so we could consult m'am on the shape of our faces. =)

mrs.moreira told me it's rather obvious that my face's an oval-shaped one [phew, i've always thought mine's between oval and round, but more towards the latter~~] and mentioned janice's heart-shaped [she said a hairstyle with bangs'll suit nannytan more~~]. we let her examine our body shapes as well~! =)

she then taught the class how to wear according to our personal body proportion and did abit of color management. we were checked one by one to see whether we belong to the warm or cool skin tone group. mrs. moreira couldn't tell for me at once due to the slightly rouged nature of my cheeks but i know i'm warm 'cos i attended similar etiquette courses back in CGS previously. =)

we attended mr.ong's CSB tutorial after lunch. he went round reviewing our work and i was glad my resume has its style and isn't too SP-fied.=)

met rachel for a movie at GreatWorldCity since my chinese lesson for the week was cancelled last minute-- she won herself a pair of movie passes to catch Santa and Snowman! =) watching a film in a 3D Imax theatre equals doubly groovy plus thriply cool [it was sure worth the headache caused by putting on the heavy and uncomfortable 3D shades~~], wow wow wow! =)

buhbye masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 112: trauma of the tsunami

2004-12-29T08:20:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

swee.lian woke me up with a very early morning call asking if i could help out at a company. i gave her sabrina's no. instead. =) dalee said she'd be meeting kangming for lunch so i went to school by myself. was late for mrs.moreira's lecture as the bus took a mighty long while to come. =( i crept in the MLT and settled down next to wati before joining janice dalee and kangming who were seated infront during the break.

mrs.moreira's an amusing lady who makes learning dry-BLaw such a jolly. =) we'd always laugh till our jaws hurt when we attend her lessons 'cos it seems like she's got an unlimited no. of funny incidents to fill us in. =)

after BLaw we switched next door for PDWM and mr.rashibalan thought we were getting hopeless by the... "DAY!" the batch of us continued for him unanimously, gee. =) the reason for his remark was due to more and more of us chatting across the theatre [my group did that once before; we got so carried away arguing over something silly thks to dalee who triggered the topic on rashibalan VS dennis.sim almost everyone could hear us, haahaahaa...=)].

michelle texted for help again in the evening. i had to turn her down as it has somewhat turned into an issue at home that it's been unbecoming of me returning late and working non-stop recently. i wasn't setting a good example for rachel and mommy's worried for my studies while daddy frets over my education in BBDC. =/

attended the free theory revision at the driving centre again after school. the loaf-y instructor on duty went sooo slow and didn't bother to complete all the questions with the class, ill ill ill. =(

caught a banner outside CDANS Country Club regarding students playing golf at a super low rate! but my bus moved on way before i could finish reading it entirely. i hope the banner's still up the next time i pass by the place. =)

chongy's down with some horrible virus i heard he vomitted quite a no. of times throughout the day. =( the army physician refused to grant poor him an MC...=( mmm gorgor should've puked on his desk-- the doctor'd definitely surrender and issue him one on the spot [get well soon chongy!].

right, let's change and talk about something solemn. the massive earthquake and the towering tsunami took away more than twelve thousand lives [and still counting~] besides leaving loads more homeless. news of the calamity've been brought up all over the world via papers and the internet these few days and many've been lamenting bout it [i'm one of those who're feeling sorry for what has happened too~], but i wonder if u've tried looking things from another point of view-- MotherNature's angry. most people might probably've overlooked the drastic amount of rubbish which were swept ashore by the tidal waves. was the disaster a wake-up call for us to get alittle more earth-conscious??

we all learn lessons when things go wrong. the tsunami has taught us to treasure our loved ones more [because we don't know what lies ahead for us~], and that we could show one another more concern beyond preoccupation over small fusses like dissenting our bosses and colleagues [teachers and classmates for us who're still schooling~], grumbling over 'vin no time and money to do everything as well as wailing at how mundane life can be...

ohiyo masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 111: final week of 2004

2004-12-29T02:00:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

we had TMS tutorial in the morning and ms.ok did a quick makeup lecture with us since her lesson last friday afternoon was called off. i dozed off unknowingly and was relieved i didn't get caught or anything, hehh. =)

when we were done with lunch we went to the library where i sat down with a magazine. then i looked eileen up when she rang. when i returned kangming played my favourite song in his MP3 player while dalee did some changes to her schedule for the week [she's the only person i know who makes full use of the calendar function in her mobile, i don't even touch mine!].

as we headed for our BLaw class kangming tried to be funny and he poured water from his bottle down Basement.1 we were at the forth storey and we all dodged to make sure we didn't get seen by anyone from the block opposite. well i remember chongy and i used to make waterbombs for fun and we'll just drop and attack them at anyone [discreetly of course~~] we don't like, afterwhich we'd make an escape from the scene of crime at supersonic speed, haahaahaa. =)

during our B-Law break i announced to half the class that i've decided mr.dennis.sim'd be my latest prince charming [winnie has a strong tendency to go gaagaa over male teachers~~]. anyway for some reason shimei no longer thinks he's a pervert now, which was something worth celebrating. =) i told her to vie sir with me at her own risk, hiahh hiahh. =) after class i whispered to the group of them telling them i'd bid mr.sim a buhbye so they all went "go lahh~~"s and "go on~~"s. and that was what i did [nervously~~]. i walked up to him and just waved a buhbye and he nodded his head!!! which came the embarrassing part-- kangming who was standing nearby exclaimed a "was that all?!" comment which set mr.sim frowning alittle as he had no idea what kangming was referring to, urghh [hi to my dear village head, i know u're reading this u fellow fairytale believer! =)]...!

i got back home to put down my bag and freshened up abit [had strawB cheesecake from SecretRecipe 'cos gorgor visited JB again the prevous night!!!] before i left for work [sorry mom i know i'm not supposed to work on weekdays but business was brisk and michelle couldn't find anyone else last minute u see...=(]

mommy got the chilli crab [that's one of her many specialties!!!] heated up for me when i knocked off. =) awww... ilu mommy, muacks~!

sweet dreams masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 110: boxing day~~

2004-12-28T23:55:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

gee i didn't know the day after christmas' known as boxing day until i read several friends' bloggies and got the term checked immediately via the invincible Yahoo! search engine [we've the Sg version as the homepage in our PC~~], hohoho. =)

i woke up at noon sharp, took my time to decide what to deposit down my oesophagus as mommy made porridge n bought us roti prata plus waffles. =) in the end i had half of one of the waffles and gulped down abit of the broth. =) roti prata's an absolute taboo for winnie 'cos it's oily. and i worry i'd send the whole piece flying off the plate down the table landing on the floor, or worse still, on somebody else's lap [can u imagine that?? u're happily munching on ur prata when an unknown piece of something resembling UFO comes approaching u, and u'd want to murder the culprit who flew it away wouldn't u?? ulahh-lahh~~] since i'm such a clumsy girl.

mmm, there's satay too, i haven't had a stick of it for let me see... 1 2 3 4 5... more than five years [but i do give in to kebab occasionally though~~]!!! ohh yahh, and to me the char.kway.teow from hawker centres' such a highly worshipped delicacy that i only take it like the most twice or thrice a year i swear, when my nose can't fight the whiff of the black noodles. =)

went to work at 2pm. bought more slices of cakes from the cafe for my colleagues since positive feedback on the pastries were received the day before. i give the cafe five stars [out of five~] for establishing excellent customer contact. "u've tasted almost all of them haven't u, miss??" the person behind me asked, pointing to the cakes on display in the fridge where i was studying each and every single one carefully.

"nahh, i'd 've put on lots of weight if i did. most of what i take away aren't meant for my stomach, ..." i smiled as i gave him my order. =)

i usually head back home during my break at work but i didn't on boxing day-- michelle's mom made loads of vegetarian kuay.teow and she had kindly packed us all a big share each so we slurped on that merrily. =) we pressed xueni to give us a visit over dinner since she skipped our ktv session two nights back. =)

ladies and gentleman, it's share-a-thought once again. goped what's below from a friend in multiply. =) introducing... the WORDS WOMEN USE~!

Words Women Use:

FINE-- This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

FIVE MINUTES-- If she is getting dressed, this is half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

NOTHING-- This is the calm before the storm. This means "something," and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with 'Nothing' usually ends in "Fine".

GO AHEAD-- This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it.

LOUD SIGH-- This is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing"

THAT'S OKAY--This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to a man "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

THANKS-- A woman is thanking you. Do not question it or faint. Just say you're welcome.

+++Send this to the men you know to warn them about future arguments they can avoid if they remember the terminology! And send it to your women friends to give them a good laugh!

it isn't as appealing as Murphy's Laws [the author must be someone skeptical~~] but i hope it brought u a little chuckle on ur face while reading it. =)

nightnight masie! =)

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.

episode 109: happy christmas~!

2004-12-28T20:06:00.000+08:00

dear masie,

today was an alright one and i worked all day. i wasn't feeling down whatsoever 'vin to work on christmas cos i'm paid $6.50 X 2 = $13 per hour [whoohoo~!] on public holidays, yay. =)

my colleagues got me pressies and i reciprocated with slices of cakes from my favourite cafe. =) mom and dad spoilt me with a packet of very authentic teochew duck rice taken away from the famous KentRidge makan house, whee~! =)

right, before i sign off may i present to u something very interesting taken from yanfen [hey thks!]'s bloggie. introducing... the MURPHY'S LAWS~!

Murphy's Laws--

1 Nothing is as easy as it looks.
2 Everything takes longer than you think.
3 Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
4 If there is a possibility of several things going wrong, the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong. Corollary: If there is a worse time for something to go wrong, it will happen then.
5 If anything simply cannot go wrong, it will anyway.
6 If you perceive that there are four possible ways in which a procedure can go wrong, and circumvent these, then a fifth way, unprepared for, will promptly develop.
7 Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse.
8 If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.
9 Nature always sides with the hidden flaw.
10 Mother nature is a bitch.
11 It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious.
12 Whenever you set out to do something, something else must be done first.
13 Every solution breeds new problems.

Murphy's Law of Research--
Enough research will tend to support your theory.

Murphy's Law of Copiers--
The legibility of a copy is inversely proportional to its importance.

Murphy's Law of the Open Road--
When there is a very long road upon which there is a one-way bridge placed at random, and there are only two cars on that road, it follows that: (1) the two cars are going in opposite directions, and (2) they will always meet at the bridge.

Murphy's Law of Thermodynamics--
Things get worse under pressure.

The Murphy Philosophy--
Smile . . . tomorrow will be worse.

Quantization Revision of Murphy's Laws--
Everything goes wrong all at once.

Murphy's Constant--
Matter will be damaged in direct proportion to its value

Murphy's Corollaries--
Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse.
It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious

Law of the Perversity of Nature (Mrs. Murphy's Corollary)--
You cannot successfully determine beforehand which side of the bread to butter.

Corollary (Jenning)--
The chance of the bread falling with the buttered side down is directly proportional to the cost of the carpet.

Commentaries--
Hill's Commentaries on Murphy's Laws:
1 If we lose much by having things go wrong, take all possible care.
2 If we have nothing to lose by change, relax.
3 If we have everything to gain by change, relax.
4 If it doesn't matter, it does not matter.

O'Toole's Commentary:

Murphy was an optimist.

NBC's Addendum to Murphy's Law:

You never run out of things that can go wrong.

Murphy's Military Laws--
1 Never share a foxhole with anyone braver than you are.
2 No battle plan ever survives contact with the enemy.
3 Friendly fire ain't.
4 The most dangerous thing in the combat zone is an officer with a map.
5 The problem with taking the easy way out is that the enemy has already mined it.
6 The buddy system is essential to your survival; it gives the enemy somebody else to shoot at.
7 The further you are in advance of your own positions, the more likely your artillery will shoot short.
8 Incoming fire has the right of way.
9 If your advance is going well, you are walking into an ambush.
10 The quartermaster has only two sizes, too large and too small.
11 If you really need an officer in a hurry, take a nap.
12 The only time suppressive fire works is when it is used on abandoned positions.
13 The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire.
14 There is nothing more satisfying that having someone take a shot at you, and miss.
15 Don't be conspicuous. In the combat zone, it draws fire. Out of the combat zone, it draws sergeants.
16 If your sergeant can see you, so can the enemy.

Murphy's Technology Laws--
1 You can never tell which way the train went by looking at the track.
2 Logic is a systematic method of coming to the wrong conclusion with confidence.
3 Whenever a system becomes completely defined, some damn fool discovers something which either abolishes the system or expands it beyond recognition.

4 Technology is dominated by those who manage what they do not understand.
5 If builders built buildings the way programmers wrote programs, then the first woodpecker that came along would destroy civilization.
6 The opulence of the front office decor varies inversely with the fundamental solvency of the firm.

7 The attention span of a computer is only as long as its electric cord.

8 An expert is one who knows more and more about less and less until he knows absolutely everything about nothing.
9 Tell a man there are 300 billion stars in the universe and he'll believe you. Tell him a bench has wet paint on it and he'll have to touch to be sure.

10 All great discoveries are made by mistake.
11 Always draw your curves, then plot your reading.
12 Nothing ever gets built on schedule or within budget.
13 All's well that ends.

14 A meeting is an event at which the minutes are kept and the hours are lost.
15 The first myth of management is that it exists.
16 A failure will not appear till a unit has passed final inspection.
17 New systems generate new problems.
18 To err is human, but to really foul things up requires a computer.
19 We don't know one millionth of one percent about anything.
20 Any given program, when running, is obsolete.

21 Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
22 A computer makes as many mistakes in two seconds as 20 men working 20 years make.
23 The faster a computer is, the faster it will reach a crashed state.
24 Nothing motivates a man more than to see his boss putting in an honest day's work.
25 Some people manage by the book, even though they don't know who wrote the book or even what book.
26 The primary function of the design engineer is to make things difficult for the fabricator and impossible for the serviceman.
27 To spot the expert, pick the one who predicts the job will take the longest and cost the most.
28 After all is said and done, a hell of a lot more is said than done.
29 Any circuit design must contain at least one part which is obsolete, two parts which are unobtainable and three parts which are still under development.
30 A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that works.
31 If mathematically you end up with the incorrect answer, try multiplying by the page number.
32 Computers are unreliable, but humans are even more unreliable. Any system which depends on human reliability is unreliable.
33 Give all orders verbally. Never write anything down that might go into a "Pearl Harbor File."
34 Under the most rigorously controlled conditions of pressure, temperature, volume, humidity, and other variables the organism will do as it damn well pleases.
35 If you can't understand it, it is intuitively obvious.
36 The more cordial the buyer's secretary, the greater the odds that the competition already has the order.
37 In designing any type of construction, no overall dimension can be totalled correctly after 4:30 p.m. on Friday. The correct total will become self-evident at 8:15 a.m. on Monday.
38 Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. And scratch where it itches.
39 All things are possible except skiing through a revolving door.
40 The only perfect science is hind-sight.
41 Work smarder and not harder and be careful of yor speling.

42 If it's not in the computer, it doesn't exist.
43 If an experiment works, something has gone wrong.
44 When all else fails, read the instructions.
45 If there is a possibility of several things going wrong the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong.
46 Everything that goes up must come down.
47 Any instrument when dropped will roll into the least accessible corner.
48 Any simple theory will be worded in the most complicated way.
49 Build a system that even a fool can use and only a fool will want to use it.
50 The degree of technical competence is inversely proportional to the level of management.
51 Any attempt to print Murphy's laws will jam the printer.

Murphy's Love Laws--
1 All the good ones are taken.
2 If the person isn't taken, there's a reason. (corr. to 1)
3 The nicer someone is, the farther away (s)he is from you.
4 Brains x Beauty x Availability = Constant.
5 The amount of love someone feels for you is inversely proportional to how much you love them.
6 Money can't buy love, but it sure gets you a great bargaining position.
7 The best things in the world are free --- and worth every penny of it.
8 Every kind action has a not-so-kind reaction.
9 Nice guys(girls) finish last.
10 If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
11 Availability is a function of time. The minute you get interested is the minute they find someone else.

well well well, did u've a good laugh?? =) if u agree with more than half of what's above, i'm sorry to inform u that u're frightfully pessimistic, and that a couple of self help books if not a shrink might be useful. =)

good night masie!

But there's something, Baby that you need to know. That deep inside me, I feel like I'm dying.
