It’s only tuesday… nowadays I update only on weekends but the last 2 days have been good to me…

yesterday I got back my FM re-test and I passed!!! Miracle! When my tutor announced that I had passed, I went ‘Huh?!’…. she gave me a confused look and asked if I had expected to fail… and i honestly told her ‘yes, since I didn’t study and I didn’t know how to do the 2nd Q’…. which by the way was 27 marks…. I got 53 but it doesn’t matter since I will only get 50…. but I am happy….

then this morning I had another piece of good news… I passed my MR retest too! I got a 52… considering the fact that people still failed this retest, i just hit the roof when I saw I had passed.

the two papers were tested on the same day… one after the other… plus on that day I had auntie maggie’s bday celebration to go to and I had some group project problems… it’s really brightened up my week to see that I have passed. And this means that I have passed all my papers!!

Da went to the gym today! Wahaha…. hope she can keep it up… I’m trying to find my hollahop.. i miss hollahoping… hee… da wanted to give me a surprise and meet me at raffles after my appt. but i had asked my mum to pick me up cause i was so tired… so instead she came down to houngang… hee… *just loving u so much*

meeting sherwin this friday… hopefully i don’t have to cancel again!! Might just go down to RP and wait for him…

have so much crap to do…. 3 projects… 1 more test… AHH!

u r never alone…
even when u think no one thinks abt u….
there is always someone thinking abt u….
worried abt u…
wishing that u r safe….
wishing that u r happy…

The Way I Feel

No it never crossed my mind
you might try to hide from me
you would set the place on fire
with your long and broken wrecking shriek

always aiming for the truth
sometimes missing just one word
something really shaken loose
look around to the see the cities burn

It’s just the way I’m feelin’
lost without the meanin’
the love has disappeared without a trace
It’s just the way I’m feelin’
You’re gone and now I’m leavin’
I’m holding back the tears
that hide my face
It’s just the way I’m feelin’

You were never forced to choose
I tried to keep you safe from harm
And now there’s nothing left to lose
You’ve gone and torn my world apart
All that’s left for me is you
A shadow of my former self

It’s just the way I’m feelin’
lost without the meanin’
the love has disappeared without a trace
It’s just the way I’m feelin’
You’re gone and now I’m leavin’
I’m holding back the tears
that hide my face
It’s just the way I’m feelin’
ost without the meanin’
the love has disappeared without a trace
It’s just the way I’m feelin’
You’re gone and now I’m leavin’
I’m holding back the tears
that hide my face
It’s just the way I’m feelin’

It’s another week gone…

Last week sat, Da and I went to sentosa again! This time we went with yan… bu was suppose to come but she couldn’t make it last minute so never mind.

Had so much fun and there was so much sun!!!!! Hahaha…. we met at like 9.30am!! Had breakfast at Vivo’s Food Republic, then we went to buy some food so that we wouldn’t have to starve at Palawan.

We got there at about…. 11am? I think…. it was sooo damn hot! After like 30mins of lying down, we went into the water…. felt sooo good! Yippe! Started taking photos like crazy…. I wanted the waves to be bigger but…. all the waves were tiny. Oh well…. we stayed in the water most of the time… talking… playing… we stayed there till like 4pm? I think… really had fun with yan…!

We walked around Vivo then we decided to go bowling!!! Since Da’s ball was at my place we went to Hougang SuperBowl…. Played for like an hour which was 2 games…we were soooo tired…. Da still wanted to go to Mt Faber Safra… poor Yan had to accompany her…. but she went home a while later.






Lets see… school…. didn’t go to school on Monday…. I stayed home to study for my MR retest on Tuesday… only to find out at night that the FM retest was on Tuesday as well…. now how crappy was that…. in the end, on tuesday I attended MR tutorial and skipped everything after that… stayed in the library with Mabel and Shaun. I think I might be able to pass my MR but will probably fail my FM paper.

After my papers, I had to go down to Katong for Auntie Maggie’s bday with Steff and Kevin. Met Steff at CityHall MRT then we took a train down to Aljunied. I didn’t know how to get to the pub since I had only taken a bus there once so I smsed Daniel but he wasn’t much help… told me he usually took a cab… *sigh* tired to call Liling but she didn’t pick up her phone so in the end we took a cab… The place was packed!!! We cold barely walk through the first section of the pub… we greeted auntie maggie and uncle vincent, and then we took our food and walked to the back alley of the pub. Quiet and there was a place for each of us to sit at. The food was pretty good… auntie maggie had ordered those chocolate eclars (did i spell it right?) filled with custard…. yummy!! We stayed till auntie maggie cut the cake which was about 10.30pm then the 3 of us headed home… we were pretty tired and I had school the following day.


check out the no. on the cake…. it’s suppose to be 52… she went to put 25 on purpose! haha!





hey sa, i knw you have loved to be there… we missed u!!! and still do….

So then we fast forward to today… I went to buy another crumpler!! The one with the weird shape… the son-O…. love it…. it was the one I had always wanted… borrowed money from mummy… told her to take it out of my allowance… don’t know how long that is going to take since it costs like 120+…. i bought the shoulder pad too…

it’s has taken 4 years of patience to finally say ‘i give up’
i hate people who can’t be relied on….
they do nothing but disappoint you….
i hate people who cannot handle their own problems and get… of all people… their parents to deal with it….
even if you did not ask ur parent to do it… u allowed them to….
especially when u r an adult and should be taking control of ur life….
i hate people who cannot keep their word…
they just cannot be trusted…
even with the simplest things…
if u knw there is a slight chance of not being able to keep ur word….
don’t give it…
i hate people who speak so crudely….
even if they r ur friend…
even if they meant as something else…

I’m tired of speaking up for people who don’t appreciate it…
sick of being embarrassed because their behavior…
done trying to help when the help is going no where…
i’m done…

darn blue black

It’s the week after MST!! And I have gotten back my papers!! Well at least all but one…

Ok so I first got back my Financial Management & Marketing Research…. I did sooo badly for them… failed them both!!! Have to sit for a retest next week… arrgghh…

But as the week went by, things got better…. I passed my Quantitative Analysis!!! In fact… I got a 60!! Although hunky chunky ricky says it ain’t that good but I was happy…. since I thought I had failed… Then I got back my Transport Econs… 70 marks each for my paper and project… Yes I got the same marks for both… Then I also got back my Cross Cultural Project… I was very disappointed with it… only a 68… Lastly… today…. I got back my stats paper…. *drum role*…. 62! I was a little disappointed…. but hey I passed… and pretty good too… considering the fact that I got a 20 something last year!! I just have my PDWM to go next week… *sigh*

Ok so on Wednesday I had a little accident… I walked… climbed… jumped… whatever u want to call it… over the lecture chair/table… and I got myself a nice blue black… stop looking at the fats…. *growls*
Now this was taken the night I got back from sch…. Day 1..

This was taken on Day 2… after my sister had rubbed it…

Day 3…. this is what it looks like today…

the blue black is on my left upper thigh… on the first night, I couldn’t sleep on my left…. it doesn’t hurt much unless u press it… my mum says it’ll take 2 months to go of but my 2nd sis says…. 3 weeks… AAHHHH!!!!!!!!! Ok ok, so I was lazy…. didn’t wanna use the normal walk way… i had to climb over the lecture table and got this…. crap….. *sigh*

Just came back from a family dinner… it was to celebrate my granny’s bday…. I got to see some of my cousins…. man, the boys have grown so much!!! All the boys are like 1 head taller than me and they are all in late secondary school…. man, I am old… and the surprising thing is when I saw one of my cousins who is like I think secondary… 4 or 3… i think…. he actually looked quite good… he was a really cute and chubby baby…. didn’t think he’d grow up quite nice… yes, I am actually saying that one of my cousins is quite handsome… lol….

Tmr I’ll be meeting bu n yan for a sentosa trip!!! Yay!!!! Going with Da too…. then on sunday, I’m meeting steff and then heading down to the zoo with Da for the interview….

So tired….

MST is finally over!!!!

Ok it was over like 2 days ago…. hahaha….

Because of Deepavali I was soooo outta the mood to study for my last paper… I just could not bring myself to study. Mabel and I got to school at 9am to study for the paper but we just got frustrated cause nothing would go in!~ Thank goodness it was a damn easy paper but that almost pissed the hell outta me. Cause it was so easy I could have scored!!!! Damn it.

After the paper I met Da at the MRT station… we went to Suntec to buy the Winter Bear at ‘Build A Bear’…. the finally bear for the season… I bought 2!!! 2 freaking bears!!! *sigh*…. one was for Da and the other was for Auntie Maggie… her bday is in like a few weeks time. Oh well… like they say.. money can be saved again… right? Hahaha….

Meet Shay!!!

Yesterday, cally, da and I finally took a trip down to Sentosa. I thought it was time to take that trip…. sadly there wasn’t wany damn sun!!! AArrgh…. but it was ok all in all…. think we might actually go down almost every weekend and if that is the case we’ll get the Member’s Card for Sentosa…. hahaha… we took heaps of photos…. we went to Palawan… cause I didn’t wanna go to Siloso… knowing that Cats poop in the sand… Da and cally went PLAYING in the water… Yes, playing…. *sigh*….kids… I was just reading and taking care of the things…. beaches were never really my thing…. We got there pretty late cause Cally had work so by the time we got there is was like 3? Yeah, really crappy… plus it was kinda raining before that. We left at about 5…. took the monorail…. which by the way I have never taken before. By the way…. I only remember being at Sentosa like 3 times in my life…. Once was with the school to go to the Under Water World and the 2nd time was to visit Rudith at Siloso cause she had some survey thing and the last time was with Bu and Sophie… that’s it…. pathetic ain’t it?


Sentosa has amphitheater that conducts animal shows… so we went to take a look… they had a doggie… snake…. sea eagle…


The Merlion from the Monorail view…


for the rest of the pics…. go to my Photos section… titled “2007 - Sentosa”
We got off at where the Musical Fountain/Merlion was…. to take pics and look around…. after which we headed back for Vivo…. we had dinner…. Laksa dinner!! Man… the darn Laska at Food Republic was sooo expensive!!! $6.90! I almost fainted when I saw the price!! But it was pretty good… not $6.90 good but good.

Anyway, Sa this is for you!!!!!!!! I know you miss local food!!!

the 6.90 Laska!

The today we went to Century Mall… think that’s what it’s called…. the one at Clark Quay… anyway most of the stores were not even set up so it was crap…. Cally, Da and I ended up walking to town (PS)… visiting Yan and for the first time in a few months Da went to have dinner at Long John’s… I hate fast food… so I try to avoid eating at fast food places…. TRY….. we went to watch “BEE MOVIE”…. aww… so cute…. wasn’t so bad.

Tmr I start sch… *sigh*…. think I’ll be getting back my tests tmr… or during the week…. and for the first time in 3 weeks I will be sitting in for all 4 lectures tomorrow… or at least I hope to do so…. Hee…

November…. 1 more month to go!

It’s Wednesday…. 3rd day of the week and 5 papers down…. 1 paper to go!!!

All the papers were pretty fine…. passable… I hope… I just have PDWM to go and that’s on Friday. It’s Deepavali tomorrow so I have more time to actually study for my friday paper. I spent a couple of days studying Stats, TEP (Transport Econs) and FM (Financial Management) but only like less than a day on Quantitative Analysis and Marketing Research each. It’s been driving my crazy… waking up at 7am to go to sch by 9am to study before the papers. But it is going to be over soon….!

Just when I have my test week, ball n bu called me out… *sigh* what timing!!!

Yesterday was my sister’s wedding food testing at the Grand Copthrone. Took pictures of the food… it was pretty good…. only for one or two that wasn’t that good…. But anyway… here they are!!


Cold dish…. quite yummy…. sushi, octopus, abalone, water chestnut and i think fish cake thingy..

Shark’s Fin…. Not very good…. I told my sis to change the vinegar to black vinegar


Oh this was the yummy yummy chicken with curry leaves… oh so good!

Prawns in chinese herbs…. spells like begger’s chicken…. for those of u who knw how that spells like…. it was damn good!! especially coming from someone who doesn’t like prawns too much!!

3 types of mushroom with broccoli and abalone…. a little blend…

This is steamed fish in Miso Sauce….

Coconut Pudding in Mango Sauce…. wasn’t very good actually… probably gonna change
it..

I had forgotten to take a picture of the rice dish…. it was gluttonise rice wrapped up in beancurd skin…. now that made an impression…. it was good…. I will put that in when I get the picture from Tom.

Da and I went to watch ‘StarDust’ today…. it was pretty good! A lot better than ‘The Seeker’ at least this one was funny and cute. I actually thought it was going to be crap but it was better than i thought…. and the theme song was sung by Take That!! WooHoo!!!

Apparently this year was a bad year for Da…. *sigh*… bad tooth… rough relationship…. lost something….. we are both hoping that 2008 will be better… so before 2008 arrives we are both gonna get a few things done so that it’ll be a fresh new start.

Sa’s coming home for Christmas!!! Yippie!! I just don’t know when yet…. Just so happy!!

I haven’t taken a photo in ages!!! I miss all my friends… thinking of taking a trip down to RP to see sherwin…. was suppose to meet him like so many times but never did… plus I have never seen the Rp campus and I can probably drop by Bu’s for a visit since kang off to sch and she’s all alone!!

I can’t wait for Da’s bowling to be over… one thing down…. she’ll have less stress…. i hope… at the same time I can’t wait for the IVP to come cause I get to see a lot of the bowling peeps…. Jeanie!!! Wahaha…. my underground gf!! Gonna buy Da some MARS bars and M&Ms…. I found this yummy Chupa Chups flavour… think it’s called Cremosa… I love it so much more then the regular chupa chups….

i see the light shine at the end of the tunnel….
but the tunnel itself drags on and on….
Never a straight smooth road….

a never ending road….
filled with bumps and potholes…
i fall….
sometimes the fall is so deep….
I do not want to get up…
I want to lie on the ground till the earth devours my essence…

I hear footsteps behind me…
I see a shadow in front of me….
I walk faster, afraid of what lurks behind…
I chase the shadowy figure…
but every 2 steps I take…
it takes 4 steps more…

everytime I stop…
they stop…
what do you want?
who are you?
I wonder if I should walk back from the way I came….

sometimes I see temptation by the side…
I want them…
I want them all…
but i cannot….
I see the gems all around me…
I reach for them but I can’t reach them….
I want what I cannot have….

My cries reach no one…
My hands reaches nothing….
My hearts yearns for you…
the warmth of another’s heart…
the hands that holds mine…
a surreal feeling that would let me dream…
dream till…

I always want what I can’t have…even if it’s going to be temp…i want it… i want u…
