someone pls tell me where that question originated from. why would anyone care about chickens and roads anyway. if you're going to be clumsy, forget about jaywalking. today i slipped on the road in front of an oncoming car. i couldnt decide what was worse. putting my life in danger...or the embarrassment of falling. was hoping no one saw what happened but germaine caught me from across the street. at least it was germaine. she's probably seen worse so it's ok (think chasing someone around the corridor. that was bad). eve's reading captivating (john eldridge) so i decided to be a kaypoh copycat and read it too. it has been a pretty good read so far... almost enough to make me feel happy about feeling all menstrual and bloated. the happy feeling was enhanced with a warm shower (ultra therapy). wouldn't have left the shower if i didnt notice my skin getting very very red (sorry rach. can never get my skin to turn grape-like no matter how hard i try *raise eyebrows*). in half an hour it'll be 12midnight and at 12 midnight it'd be august and in august my quota in flickr resets. too trigger happy for my own good. my mummy is funny. my dad's back so she used my dad's yahoo account on his laptop to msg me chee_kong_wong 12.23pm wah yr photo so sexy...papa said hee.he it's even cuter that her replies come long after the question i asked. so much so that i forgot what i asked. afternote: they are as mad as they are cute. they just bought a new house. how do they manage to pull off such things without me ever finding out until they've done it. where on earth am i going to be living in the next time i go home.

my corn muffins turned out scone-ish. i guess scones are fine. but they just aren't muffins and i'm terribly disappointed. i dont believe i did anything wrong so i shall just go scout for another recipe. then again, maybe i'll just eat kenny roger's. :( ive been in an icon-downloading frenzy thanks to rach and i wish i had more icons to convert. now you know why i need 250gb. i'm just full of nonsense. i was doing my laundry when i felt like i miss my mum. no not because she does most of my laundry in singapore. (ok maybe partly) but i got reminded of her when i took out the new delicates laundry bag(s) that she bought for me before i came back here last week (you mean i've only been back for slightly more than a week!?). yes i know i love being away from home but i am still capable of some feeling (hum). for the record. i still hate laundry. and i still have tons of laundry. my dad told me to fly back here after my sis' wedding to graduate with everyone else. because it's err. more fun. in his words. *raise eyebrow* i've never considered that before but now that he suggested it...hurhur. maybe i should. he said i could just graduate again after honours if i want to but i really dont see the need. once is enough. for now that is. :) im hungry. so i shall sleep. ok i noe i said i was going to sleep but this looks fun [Name 3 schools you went to] fuhuapri radinmaspri rgs [Name 3 things in your wallet] driver's licence singapore sim card karaoke namecard (everything but money) [Name 3 current favorite songs] fanweiqi & zhangshaohan - ru guo de shi mariah carey - it's like tt elva hsiao - yi ge ren de jing cai [Name 3 THINGS you love to do] study :D it's about all that i do :D [Name 3 people on ur mind] will u believe me if i say there's nothing in my mind at the moment? blank, zilch, nada, zip. im too hungry.

i feel like a little girl, squatting in front of the oven waiting for my muffins to be done. not like staring at it would make it bake any quicker. but you know. the anticipation of corn muffins. i nicked the recipe from some website and i have serious reservations wrt its success. you see, any baking recipe that doesnt involve any butter, sugar and minimal flour just doesnt sound very credible. im quite sure kenny rogers corn muffins are very fattening. which is no wonder they taste so good. but i'll find out about mine in approximately 15-20 mins. it still looks gooey how on earth will it be muffin-like with so little flour?! let me just go stare at it somemore.

*slams her harry potter on the floor and steps on it with all her might* i've been trying to read it as slowly as possible to stop myself from finishing it in one day. and what do i get in return?! i dont like! i very angry. arggggh. urrrrggghhh. raaarggghhhhh. he cannot die *moan* ... :( ... so apart from potter, 1hour lectures each day (on most days) which is a waste of time, occasional practicals, work, gym, vivien's vcds and cooking. i haven't been up to much (not even shopping. give me a pat on the back). at least i haven't been up to no good. somehow. it just doesnt feel like a proper semester (no, not because i've been good but because it's just plain uneventful). trying to go on a diet while watching some guy stuff his face with (even) the most ordinary looking sandwich is pure torture. 3.20am and i think i'm going to die from late night hunger attack soon. if i keep going on with the im-not-hungry-at-3am mantra, i might just go loonytoony. beware. too much fibre gives you flatulence. im positive it does. after-thought: despite my occasional whinge. i am grateful for alot of things. i really am. i probably should say it more often. (yes, i dont get peevish 24/7)

ok so i was so tired i fell asleep on the couch at 7pm with harry potter in one hand. woke up at 10pm with the intention of continuing my book in bed but ended up continuing my sleep with all the lights on and harry potter in one hand. got awoken at 6+am to open the door for lou who just got back today (yay) and after some catching up before her 9am class i went back to sleep. until it was time for my 1pm class. i dont know what that was all about but it was a good sleep which was long overdue. cant believe school has started. u know u havent been to school for too long when u walk out of the main door with everything but stationery. wish i didnt need to wake up. AND im so glad im in australia. the land where sin city is m15 and not stupid r21. nyaha. hurrah to halfprice tuesdays.

back from camp i'm so tired i'm just lying around in front of my computer. i can't move. the walk home in the rain with 3 folders of transparencies felt like the longest walk i've taken in weeks. i surprisingly did not take any pictures. oh wait. i think i took one with danson in the kitchen with soya-sauce-chicken-zup hands. and that isnt even on my camera. probably vivien's. i shall just do a facial mask and mope around at home. im damn hungry. but i think i'm more tired than hungry to get dinner. oh help. im pathetic. lou's not back yet :\

i dont know what's up with me and dreams but i had 2 nightmares last night. one involved running around (screaming) in some house that is empty and dark and the other was of x-i-a-x-u-e (dont want people who google her to end up here -_-). she wasnt doing anything scary but i consider it a nightmare just to see her in my sleep. did i mention that, in my dream, she was my long lost friend? :| i walked all the way to gie's hse from st vincent's to pick up a sleeping bag. but ended up leaving her house WITHOUT it. -_- the thought of camp is making me very lazy. very. didnt realise the house was so messy before i left for singapore. i probably overlooked alot of things after vomitting that day. let me pack. p/s: there are just some people you feel all *&^%$#@*&@ about. oh whats wrong with me. repulsion gets to me so deep i can feel it in my kidneys.

i hope that caught your attn prac DOES start on monday (damn.) so dont come back in the evening! i will be home in the morning and will open the door for u. :)

it's colder in this house than outside. wearing a winter coat at home just seems so strange. i wish lou would come back soon. being home alone is err lonely. :( im trying to pump air into my new fit ball but i cant seem to be able to figure out which end of the pump goes to where. (what the?) but ive been reunited with john the imac. on which i can finally download songs. and i can go grab my harry potter later. maybe after oprah. oh i finally managed to retrieve all the pics from my camera(s)! just to find out ive reached my limit on flickr for this mth. -_- ok i lazy so just click on flickr badge at the side column :P

travelling first class rocks. im not. (pooey!) but because my parents are krisflyer solitaire members we get to do everything first class except for where we sit on the plane. from the moment we step out of the taxi a porter comes to get your bags and ground staff walks you to the check-in LOUNGE. yes. you check in in a lounge. you get to take a seat at the counter while they issue you your boarding pass. didnt have a problem with my overweight luggage as well (oops. i really didnt think i had THAT much). im blogging from another lounge where i probably can spend an entire day in. gorgeous place with all sorts of amenities (meeting rooms, tv room, reclining chairs, shower) and FOOD with FREE FLOW OF ALCOHOL. you can get something from the bar or just pour yourself some beer if you prefer. but all i can take is a bottle of perrier. took one for angie too hurhur. stupid diet -_- it would have been perfect if i was given those lovely (HUGE) red seats that go 180deg on the plane as well....but i shan't be greedy. i only want to travel with my parents now.

noooooooooooooooooo *shriek* why are you pulling my legssssssss *cling onto bed room door* duwaaaaaaaaaaaaaan *screech* *cling onto staircase railing* why are you dragging me down the stairssss thump thump thud thud oof *cling onto dining table* duwannnn to go baccckkkkkkkk lettt goooooo of meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

hurhur looks like i can happily strike out another karaoke session though it was disappointing ballet under the stars didnt work out. :( i think the best part about laobeijing (other than the company of course) was that the liangcha was freeflow. ok im a liangcha sucker. but the food was too oily and we ended up walking from PS to borders to try debloat. thanks girls for lunch anyhoos :) i've always wanted to mention that recently lou has a bizarre habit of signing off from msn conversations with "if i was a rich girl. nanananananananananananananana" hurhur today's sign off was a rum and diet coke toast. which highly amused me. su's diet woes. biomedees remember to sign up for prac tomorrow morning. or u'll be stuck with friday afternoon pracs (hiak!). can u believe we'll be seeing sophie ping again?! i REALLY thought we got rid of her in second yr. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! mum: "HAVE U FINISHED PACKING?!?!?!?" su: "uhh. halfway? :\" mum: "STILL DON'T GO AND PACK??!?!?!" su: "uhh. ok ok, now now." mum: "i also havent. i'll pack tmr." *plop down in front of tv* :| and u were wondering why i turned out this way? her flight tmr is to china.

its amazing how i get more productive when it's almost time to go back to melbourne. let's see... found cloth and a tailor for my dress (YAY!!!) got a pedicure rochor tau foo far visited little india conquered little india (we only made it to tekka market today.:( ) saw fireworks again watched fantastic 4 go for another karaoke session so i didnt manage to do everything and prob wont until i get back in dec because the next 2 days are packed. but i'm quite pleased i've managed to get everything i need for melb (major stocking up) and i've met almost everyone i wanted to meet. it would have been nicer if i could meet up with some people more often....but that will just have to wait till dec. checking in in 1/2 hour. i am actually looking forward to going back. yes, remind me i'll regret what i just said once i touch down over there. cant believe i pre-ordered my harry potter in MELBOURNE. i cant get my hands on it but i have to wait until tuesday. i thought i'd be able to make it back in melbourne before today...guess not. i..have..to...pack......:(

essential brews in holland v is a cheaper option for tea (HALF the price ok!) but it aint as good and the place aint as pretty..unless you love sitting on the floor. doesnt do the legs much good after an hour.really. the brownie is (apparently) not bad...just dont get some vanilla obsession drink because it (apparently) tastes like petrol :but i think i'll stick to the esplanade place. funny how i have never taken the wrong bus in my whole life...yet i did it twice in a short period of 2 weeks. i should have seen it coming. considering how i go into a daze when i'm on the bus/mrt... i was taking the bus back to bukit batok from holland v but ended up in IKEA. erm. it was quite a strange and time consuming experience :( my mum's pretty funny. over sushi dinner she said "don't think i'm dumb" pause. then "i look dumb but im not dumb" ok my sis and i were quite amused already. but with a straight face she went on to tell us "ei! dumb ppl got money ok" i wonder whether there's any truth. will they be dumb enough to marry me? *innocent smile* i just finished a HK drama serial. what a bum.

if you want cheap (without compromising the quality) entertainment. you could try the asian civilisations musuem. they currently have vatican exhibits (Journey of Faith) in the special gallery and it only costs you 4 bucks if you're a full time student. heck, they didnt even check our student cards. i figured it's the closest i can get to visiting the vatican city. for now. gie and i went to the ACM 2 (empress place) which is new. ok maybe it aint new but it is to me because i've only been to the armenian st one. hurhur. but you know something's quite wrong when you find yourself resting on a bench in the middle of the gallery before continuing with the rest of the exhibits............................... and they really should have kbox in melbourne. $15.20 for more than 5 hours (something tells me it would have gone on longer if people didn't have to work tmr) just rocks my socks. songs are new, place is clean, mics are working, screen is huge, room's spacious, not smokey. beats that dodgy shanghai club anytime. and i've discovered other ways of stretching YOUR (i stress on YOUR because only point 3 is credible for a real bargain) dollar including *shopping only with mummy *(if you have a club) having your meals there because everything gets "charged to the card" and of course the bills of that card has nothing to do with you. :P *LADIES NIGHT :) oh yes if you still have abit alot of money left, try the tea room at esplanade (next to max brennar) where they serve unique blends of tea as well exotic flavoured tea cakes. very english deco with very friendly waitresses. perfect for a rainy sunday afternoon! so it was quite expensive...but it was worth every bit. i wish i could upload my pics. to conquer little india next.

i had dinner at black angus. the one at fullerton. and it was really nice! the restaurant's right in front of the river/sea/body of water (whatever u call it) we sat outside so we could have a nicer view and since there was national day rehearsal today at the padang, there was a fireworks display halfway through dinner. i took some pictures but i got to get hold of a card reader first because my sis gave me her camera and she lost the cable to connect it to the comp. anyway, i now know where to go whenever there's national day rehearsal. :D maybe it was the wine. i walked into the wrong toilet just now. eeps! the guy behind me was kind enough to give me a sympathetic smile instead of laughing out loud. i must have looked very kinda bad. tsk, i really should stop doing such things. i opened my cupboard and found many old books. and when i say old...they r reaaally ooold. think sweet valley high. i shall entertain myself tonight by reading one of 'em. wakefield indulgence. hiak. (after note: ok maybe not. flipped to the first page and couldnt stand it already. i'll stick to more normal and less teeny bopper stuff. i know i know, dont ask why on earth i even own such books. i was once 9 ok) gold 90 fm is incredibly soppy. but i love it!

it was a really weird day. ok. i AM pretty strange to begin with. but still! i was sitting on a bench along orchard road writing a birthday card when this little girl (irritating age kinda little. u know...9 or something) moved from her seat (which was about an arm's length away from me)all the way next to me. she was SO CLOSE her head was almost on my shoulder. wth?! then she started looking at what i was writing. the best bit was that her father was right in front of me but didnt do anything! grrr. so i stopped writing for a while and really considered writing "as i write this, an irritating girl is staring and i'm getting very very annoyed" but i decided to be nice and shut my card hoping she'd get the idea. well i guess she did. but she started doing it again when i started writing again. you see if she was as cute as dakota fanning. i wouldnt have minded (kinda). i am biased towards cute little girls. but NO! NOT cute >< speaking of dakota fanning. i watched war of the worlds my gosh. i dont normally complain much about movies but that was so. bad. ok i know i didnt complain about initial d but i was expecting it to be bad anyway. so it's ok. to put the movie in a few words: aliens invade, eat everyone around tom cruise (but never him or his children!), get food poisoning, shit/vomit orange slush, die! humans rule earth once again. u know, if i get a dollar for each time someone asks me whether i had a boyfriend, i'd be bloody rich by now. i mean i dont mind anyone asking. but PLEASE don't ask me "SURE OR NOT" or "DONT BLUFF LAH!" when i say NO because i don't get anything from hiding it from you. really. i'm not some kind of 15 year old who finds immense pleasure hiding my boyfriendwithspikeyhairfromTHATboysschool. and i know my facial expressions get dodgy sometimes but i look pretty dodgy anyway! so give me a break! ohyes and to end of my weird day. the bus stop behind cine (where i normally take my err 106 not 190) disappeared! yes it did. whereee didd theyyyy puttt my busss stoppp?! p/s: im really missing John my iMac pp/s: my iMac needs a new name. any suggestions? other than louise.

i am officially 1/2 a year to being a graduate *sweat drop* whew.

got rudely awakened by some neighbour's drilllllllllllllllll bang! bang! bang! at 9 in the morning. i mean isn't there some kind of rule against DRILLING AND HAMMERING early in the morning?! what if i was on some kind of night shift! best part? when i thought it had stopped and that i could go back to sleep again, the drillllllllllllllllll bang! bang! bang! would return. i gave up after a while. not happy. uhh. and everyone knows whats happening on the 8th july. oh bother. im a nervous wreck. let me look forward to tmr's movie marathon instead. i love singapore cinemas!

since i really cannot sleep, and my comp isnt (surprisingly) acting up...i thought i should just blog. i've switched off the lights (and then on again) about 4 times now. i cant decide whether i cant sleep because i fell asleep in front of the tv just now, or because of the supreme lack of stimulating activities. maybe it's just the growling tummy. but im on a diet. *grunt* i didnt know singapore had a polo club. today i explored, found some horsies (which amazingly were not THAT smelly), and concluded that it's a really boring place. the sport that prince harry endorses doesnt look too enticing either. i realised murphy never mentioned that you only see someone you know in a shop when you are buying something dodgy *raise eyebrow* pretty shoes are always painful good food's always fatty meeting the girls tomorrow for dinner. i cant wait.

lou, gie and i trooped down to KL on thursday morning to attend yuchun and sophia's wedding held on saturday. we stayed at my aunt's place (special thanks) and we had alot of fun shopping, eating and meeting old friends as well as errr making new friends (ah hem. hurhur.) the morning reception was held at the holiday villa victorian ballroom where the solemnization took place. the dinner was held at the sunway lagoon resort hotel grand ballroom (where they had a whooping 104 tables!). wedding was beautiful. so were the bride and groom. we took tons of pictures (there are somemore on gie's camera but i lazy) from the start of our journey (i.e. pre-wedding) all the way till after the wedding when some of us toured the couple's damn nice villa. but those after-party pictures are not suited for err public sharing. had a good time, but glad im home nonetheless. enjoy the pictures (click on the picture for the rest of them :))
