| CNY |
Happy New YeaR!!!
One of my favourite time of the year.. Ang baos, ba kua, pineapple tarts ... need i say more? LOLs
I went to Chinatown last nite at 2am, all thanks to Mr Tan who kept me waiting but it was pretty interesting to shop at Chinatown sans the crowd, the shouting, the pespiration. How do one get to see the store-owners cleaning up, arranging their wares.
Okis time for to go for my mani n pedicure... hope everyone have lots of Ang Baos! |

| gotten my results! |
Finally!!!!! I finally get to see my results online!
I emailed the exchange coordinator and she said cause my personal data was not updated, so after updating... *drum rolls*..... results tat-da!
CTL3977 Thai I B- CTL4921 Japanese Culture B+ IS2035 An Int to IS & Tech in C Soc A LW2601 Hong Kong Legal System A SS2607 Psy Prin Ap' to Sci and Tech A-
I was very shock when i saw my results because i put in half the effort and results are better than back home... so this proves that whoever says that "effort= results" is so wrong. I should have gone overseas for my higher education! Perhaps i will be on dean's list or something.. muahahahaha. However, there's one thing that i must add, i had a clearer picture of what I was doing and learning back at CityU, because the lecturers there do not try to pump tons of information and analyzes into you but take things on a slower, easier pace, thus i felt that studying there was a breeze as compared to SMU. I have always believe that Singapore's educational system is like boot camp, everything is tougher n more difficult, higher expection, thus when one goes overseas, life is a breeze as we are conditioned for tougher and more difficult enviroment. So do not think of sending your kids overseas or migrating just because the educational system in Singapore is stressful because it can only be a good thing!
Anyway, i finally broke the 100 pts mark for bowling! I am a lousy bowler, with my ball always skews left, so when i finally break my high score... i was.......... beyond words! Okie fine, i still lost to Rujin but that aside, i am soo proud of myself wahahaa, although dad says that i am lousy because only so low but i dun care.. lalala

Okies, going to sleep, i have a mini-presentation tomorrow. No idea what my prof meant by mini, but my grp mates n me r going to take it |

| Memoirs n CNY |
Finally have the time to blog...been rather busy last few days.
ohh yah.. i caught Memoirs of a geisha. I really love the book and this is really a movie that i'm dying to watch. My comments? mmm... well its pretty good... do not really feel short-charged from the book (unlike Harry Potter IV). I must say that I think the real stars of the show is Michelle Yeoh and Gong Li. Although the story is about Zhang Ziyi's character, somehow she fades in comparison with the other 2 veterans. Well, she still has a long acting career ahead. This may sound silly but I actually discovered grammar mistakes in the script. After the movie, there was this rather irritating young girl that making stupid comments.. i really feel like asking her to shut up.. she keeps commenting on the stars looks. I still remember her saying that GongLi looks awful..come on.. when Gong Li is a star.. she is just learning her ABCs n if she can looks like Gong Li in her late 30s, I will be impress.
CNY is round the corner!!!! I am getting a little excited.. Dong dong chiang dong doong chiang. but just realised that i am entering my mid-20s.. arrgh.... i love being 23.. its jus a wonderful age to be! Old enough to be taken seriously but young enough to evade questions like "so have a boyfriend? getting married soon?"
Before i go, I have a confession to make... this is to Christine... sorry i lost the bottle of peanut cookie u made!!! Left it in the seminar room and its no longer there when i go back to check. Vanessa suspected that the security guards ate them cos when she asked them, they said they have no idea what peanut cookies she is talking about and had an awkward look.
Gotta go... going to Mustafa! |

| what a loser |
Just as I am falling asleep, i was awoken by shouts, cries and tears... its my sister and she woke everyone up except my bro.
She was having a shouting match with her ex-bf, Mr T and this Annie gal. Not knowing whats wrong except that she is brawling badly, she didnt want to talk and my worried mum asked her if she's pregnant or in any trouble. I picked up her hp and called that big WIMP Mr T. Oh yeah.. he's a wimp.. read on.
Asking him whats wrong, and he told me he don't know, saying that he broke up with her a long time back and its she thats 'disturbing' him. I asked him, are u sure its a long time ago, thought just a wk back, and he said 'yes' but sorry dude, your tone gave u away. I asked him y he broke up with her and he said "no feelings anymore for her" . According to my sister, he keeps telling her 2 versions of everything, when he's drunk, he told her that he dont love her anymore but when he is sober, he said he still do... n thats just a few days back. I asked him what kinda of reason is that cos its doesn't even sound convincing. Its simply a convenient excuse for him. I told him that be a man and act like one, clear up the mess that he started and he was like acting totally innocent and said a whole lot of irrevelant things, I was like "fuck la, dont think i duno what u have done, getting yourself drunk everyday, being caught for cheating on her... not only once, don't u know... even a rabbit knows not to hunt around his burrow" Oh for those u duno, he was caught holding and kissing other gals around his pub area.... what an idiot.. everyone around there knows him.. just waiting to be caught. That sister of mine also one kind, 4gave him and still sticked by him. Okie, I have to admit that what i told him was irrelevant to the conversation but just wanna vent some frustration on him.
okie here is the wimp side of him... suddenly this gal's voice came on, and she was this Annie gal. He sent a gal to talk to me on his behalf!!! Sister in the background told me that he broke up with her cos of this Annie gal, I do not know how true this is but apparently Annie denies it and said that he only knows her after he broke up with my sister and was sooo defensive of him. Well Miss Annie, if u r reading this, i just want u to think about some things, or should i say some possibilities: 1) u r lying, u know Mr T long ago. 2) Mr T is lying, he knows u while he is still with my sister.... does that make him a liar/cheater? 3) My sis is lying, Mr T broke up with her long time ago but she doesnt face it... okie..its definitely not longer than 2 wks cos I personally witnessed some events and conversations that makes me sure that around New Year period they r still together. 4) Annie just knew Mr T, so this makes them (3 of them) all telling the truth but why is it that Annie talks as if she knows everything? Well, either u were brainwashed by Mr T or u r in the picture all along. 5) All 3 got everything mixed up.
So Annie in her chicken-like voice, squeaking away, acting as if shes older than me... asking me what I want. Err... Ms ar.. u r younger than me. So i simply told her that if he can do this to my sis, she is simply waiting-in-line for her turn, and told her to ask that wimp and big time loser to the phone. Btw, that annie's voice is really jarring.. still has that ringing effect on my ears now.
Mr T took over and I asked him why did he sent a gal to talk to me, and his reply was "i'm driving"
"Driving?" I looked at my sister. Sister's reply was short n sweet "he doesnt even has a license!"
Oh yeah... 4got it was revoked! So my reply was "how can u be driving, your license was revoked, so you are breaking the law now. By the way, what kinda of reason is driving, haven't u heard of hands-free? Cant u just park the car by the side and talk properly?"
He was like shouting away "BUT I'M DRIVING!"
Stupid loser... come on.. wanna bluff me ar.. there's like 1 bus stop every 1 km or so. Furthermore, when he was with my sister, never did once he drove, so where the mysterious car came from? Y the sudden need to impress Annie? mmm... mayb the car is Annie's but isnt that even better, can't he ask her to take over the wheels so that he can talk to me, not break the law and come up with better arguments.
Anyway, he told me that if i want to call police cos he is driving w/o a license, i can go ahead. But as if i am soooo free...
Okie, anyway my parting note to him is to be a real man, make a clean break and he is really a loser. Err.. i think I've said more things to him but cannot really remember.. think along the lines of he cannot even take care of himself etc etc.
I kind of lectured my sister, telling her how many years of her life can she waste on him, asking her if she wants to stay in this cycle with him. Its so obvious that Mr T is a player and from the start, I am sure that 50% of him just wanted to play with my sis. I gave her some examples of people i know and how sticking by a fucked up guy just ruined their life and wasted their time. Dont want to see my little sister ending up like tat. Come on, if everyone can tell her to 4get abt Mr T, can u imagine how terribly a person he is. I dont even need to meet him to feel bad vibes abt him.
I totally understand how my sister is feeling cos dun we all at some pt in time meet people that we just cant let go off. We will be just blinded to all that person's doing as long as the person still stays in our life, but frankly, we just end up in more tears, more heartache and the ending often never what we imagine it will be. Just to side-track, that's when the nice guys come into the picture. Well, its true that good guys never gets the gals but u know what, good guys never gets the gals initially but they always end up marrying the gals cos gals will one day get so sick and tired of the bad guys, they will end up with good guys.
To my little sis: i can only hope that u will move on and walk away with pride, such that if u do bump to him another day, u will truly be able show him life w/o him is better. You know that u do have to bear some responsibility to why things became so ugly, so face it bravely. I know that u do not want to make us worry by crying in front of us but dont u know that your other actions say so much more. When u need to cry, just cry. No need to keep all your tears. As days passes, u will realised that u r crying lesser and lesser, such that one day u will wake up and and realised how much that awaits u. There's lots of people that cares for u. Always remember that.
To all the girls: dont go for a loser like that, some one that cannot even take care of himself well, someone who cannot even feeds himself, someone thats will get into trouble with law anytime (not cos of the driving,there's more to it), someone that cheats on u and most importantly some loser who is still a boy when come to handling matters of the heart. I read blinkymummy's blog and she said something that left me a deep impression: " I fuck up, I say nabehcheebye, I clean up and I start over again and again and again" Things do get screwed up at times for everyone, but most importantly is pick oneself up again no matter what happened.
To all the guys: Dont be like Mr T. Dont be a wimp and send a gal to talk on your behalf. If want to cheat, make your brain do some work 1st. Really do not know what to say. |

Do not know why but not in blogging mood since coming back to Singapore... at this rate, think theres no point in keeping a blog... nevermind.. I'm going to wait n see if the blogging mood comes back before deciding my next action.
Okies an announcement.... *drum rolls*... I change my hairstyle! Yes its still short.. but now its straight... really straight! Regretted it almost immediately as i feel like that i look like a retarded char siew bao but i'm getting used to it. Well.. we all do need a change at times rite.
I cannot believe it but strategy really has lots of work to do! The readings and case studies is.. arrgh.... sorry but though i like learning.. i am not hardworking! Ohh according to one of my former classmate at CityU, the exam results are out but I cant seem to access mine but since Edison cant checked his too.. i'm not alone! Mayb the exchange students are different... so kok one.
Rain rain go away... I come back to Singapore to enjoy the sun! Where is it? I dont see it... Mr Sun u better start appearing... if not I...
mmm... actually.. I do not miss the sun that much cos i got this feeling that after this bout of showers.. its going to be hot hot hot... then i will start whining again. |

| KATHY IS BACK! |
Do u guys remember Kathy, my toilet mate in HK? Well... she is back!!! Was chatting with Kanas n she told me that Kathy is up to her nonsense again. She told Kanas not to bathe at 4am as it disturbs her sleep. MY GOSH! How bitchy can a person get man... she is the ultimate! Kowtow to her!
Come one if i really wanna be a bitch, i should have told them (duno is it her or her roomie) not to bathe at 4am too cos whoever that woke me up once at 4am with the showering sound, freaked me out too cos she is singing some oldies.. u know those that our grannies listen to.
I seriously regretting not leaving 1 BIG sarcastic msg for Kathy b4 i leave. Shit! should have told her to shut up and not be a nuisance to all. |

| 1st day |
What a 1st day...I have always enjoyed the 1st day of everything, every year.. its always nice to meet old friends and get to know who will be in my classes. Well but i have to admit that this particular 1st day is extra special- 1st time attending class in the new campus, 1st time walking down the streets of orchard since i am back, 1st time not selling books at Verts and the last sch term's "1st day" for me! Hopefully the rest of the term will be just as good as today.
I am goin back to watch this very funny hk drama- Ye Man Nai Nai. It won best drama this year and Liza wong won best actress... shoo go watch.. its not exactly super duperly fantastic but its very enjoyable.
Oh... i found out how Rigan knows when i am reading but nah don't worry.. not going to find out who has been reading mine as its just too troublesome LOL. Furthermore, I have a good idea who r the majority thats reading my blog as not many knows i have a blog. wahhaha |
