you came into my life just when another left me…

murdered and leaving me depressed and alone….
I want you back…
but it’s impossible cause you’ve left earthly realm…
I will miss you….

uber upset!!!

SIM UB ORIENTATION’09

WoHoo!! I like the t-shrt… niceeeeeee…

7.45am and I was sitting in SIM….
bloody hell….
I was waaaaaaaay too early…..
the sms stated 8am but everything started at 9.30am….

I had to try and be sociable for an hour and a half….
uggghh……
the ogls were nice though….
I finally got to meet Mr. r-u-coming-but-it-is-compulsory….
and he looks 100% NUM…..
got loads of stuff…
my crumpler was already so heavy…
they gave us more stuff….
oh wells…

anyways, I spent the whole morning in the lecture hall freezing my ass off & falling asleep….
freaking cold…
AND the school is damn smart….
there’s not reception in the lecture halls…
we can receive msgs and calls but we can’t msg or call out….

most of the students are from JCs….
only a hand full of us are from poly…
the guys are all outta army…
but guess what….
they don’t look like they’ve been to the army…
skinny & fair…. like…. ‘huh?’…. I was expecting them to look like andrew or pong…
or….. geez… I don’t know…
haha…
but even after the army and all…
i think I’m still the oldest…
hahaha…
& &…. I found one of B’s GM seniors….
geeZ….. what a coincidence…. that makes like 3 people she knws in UB….
I bet ash could find a couple of people she knws in UB too….
waaah…..

anyways, during the break,
one of the girls, vanessa and I went to outside and we went to the wrong buffet!!!
apparently the lecture hall next to ours had some talk too…
and the buffet tables were only like 30 feet away from each other…
we ate the brownies from the wrong buffet table…
oOpps…. but they didn’t taste very good….
and the buffet for UB was better…. hahaha

by noon, we bus-ed down to Sentosa…
lunched and started the whole games thing….
played some broken telephone thing….
but instead of words, it’s like you act out the phrase…
i was the 1st person for the second round and I got ‘Sex on the beach’…..
right…. so i just stuck out my middle finger and pointed to the whole beach area….
by the middle, the action went from middle finger to the ‘crazy action’….
like how you would take your index finger and swirl it at your head….
OMG…….

spent the next 30mins or so waiting at the next station….
we only had time to play 2 games…
cause more than half of the time was spent waiting and walking…
had a tally match after…. which was… meh…
nothing fantastic much….

I couldn’t wait to go home…
felt soooooo filthy….
missed B so much by dusk…

went to chinatown for dinner with the folks…
oh man…. I miss chinatown food…..
must go must go…

came home to my timetable…
B. went through all the modules, all the files, all the class lists to find my timetable….
cause to find out your classes and timetable is really different in UB….
in fact, it’s freaking tedious …
first you have to find out all the modules you are taking for the sem….
and for this sem, I am taking…
- COM 101 (3) *
- CSE 111 (4)*
- ESL 407 (3)
- MTH 115 (4)
- SOC 101 (3)

and then we have to go through like 40 class lists to  find our name….
like COM 101 has 2 classes…
so we have find out whether it’s class A or B we’re in….
same thing for the others….
AND THEN…. we have to look at the timetable which contains EVERYONE’S timetable and hunt for your own….
anyways, B. did all that for me…
plus my academic calendar….
hee….
the only thing I don’t have is the venue of my classes…
or at least we can’t find them…

TIMETABLE for SEM1

Monday
9 - 10.30am : ESL 407
3.30 - 5pm : COM 101

Tuesday
12 - 2pm : MTH 115
3.30 - 5.30pm : CSE 111

Wednesday
9 - 10.30am : ESL 407
3.30 - 5pm : SOC 101

Thursday
9 - 11am : MTH 115
12 - 1.30pm : COM 101
3.30 - 5.30pm : CSE 111

Friday
3.30 - 5pm : SOC 101

had to do some planning and scheduling with B….
man… I wish I had Sociology on Friday mornings…
then I can have the rest of the day free…
it’s good I start earliest at 9am…
BUT I end at 5pm EVERY DAY!!
ahhhh…. ugh…
-

caught UP in 3D with B.
mannn…. I tell you watching a movie in 3D is absolutely useless….
the movie was cute…
but $10 for the 3D experience….. is pointless….

You make my heart go bump…

MJ, Movies & Food

Mahjong & Steamboat with the SP Peeps yesterday was absolute….

Ricky, Jeremy, Shaun, Mama, Kitty & Mabel came over for MJ, Movies & Food.

UPSET!!!
Ricky is an asssssholeee……
Jeremy was talking to me about when my UNI orientation was….
and my entry on my ‘genius’ of a group leader…
and then like 2mins later,
Ricky started talking about how my blog’s full of food…
nothing but food and that his bro was also saying that my blog’s full of food…
right ok, I know…. EVERYONE says my blog is a food blog…
anyway, that wasn’t his asshole moment….
he then goes on and asks me…
‘eh, have you applied for UNI or not?’
like…. ‘?!?!?!?!?! I start in one week!!!! & Jeremy & I were JUST talking about my orientation!!’
so the truth is out!!!!
He only looks at pictures and doesn’t bother to read!!!!!!!!!!!
like… WTHHHH!?
and it’s not like my entries are VERY long…..
Jeremy just went.. ‘now you know who loves you.’
*sobs*….. so saaad….

seriously…. I really miss time with my SP peeps…
they always make me laugh….
I called Kitty @ 3plus to ask her to come over earlier….
the pig had barely woken up…
and she asks… ‘Huh, you mean the 3 of you (jeremy, ricky & I) reach already ah?’
my reply…. ‘Huh, erm… Kitty, I live here….’
Kitty…. ‘Eh? Oh yeah hor….’
……………………………… LOL…………………

Leaving Mabel alone isn’t a good idea…
while MJ-ing, she and mama went to my room to look for DVDs….
and some how she missed my Catus & DROPPED IT!!!!!!!
wait… let me say that again….
SHE DROPPED IT ON HER FOOT!!
wahahahahahahahaha……….
we heard her screaming from my room and then continuosly saying ‘pain! pain! pain!’
whinning and shouting my name….
ehh….. the bunch of us just continued playing and laughed at her at the same time…
AND I just found out…. my poor catus is missing it’s HEAD!!!
mabel broke my catus!!!!!!
*sob*
Nvm, it got it’s revenge….
it spiked her foot…

mahjong-ed till like 2am or something…
mabel & shaun went movie marathon crazy….
5 freakin movies in one night/morning!!!!!!!
and like 3 of them are 1970s/80s movies……
Pineapple Express, Se7en, Poltergist, The Omen (1976), The Exorcist
awesome craziness….

barely 2 hours of sleep and I was off to town to meet B.
went to have lunch at Cathay’s ChipShop, I was curious about the place…
meeeh….

sent B. to work then bus-ed home sleeping & slept before meeting her again to head down to Candy’s for agnes’s bday….

I survived ASH!!!!
hahaha
ash was uber nice…
she got the car and came all the way down to Serangoon to pick us up and sent us home….
although she had business at my area,
she got lost but came to pick us up…
hahaha…
thanks ash…

Vans’s belated birthday brunch @ P.S Cafe…

had ash over on Tuesday night to get the gifts ready….
bloody shit… my printer is like totally trashed….
I haven’t used it for years….
so the one time I decided to use it again…
it sucks ass….
wasted my trip with b. to sim lim man….
firstly, the printer doesn’t contact to the MAC cause the plugs are different…
secondly, the ink came out all green!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*sigh*

anyways ash and I got some photos printed the next morning…
BUT the thumbdrive decided to join the printer….
half the pics in it couldn’t be read by the machine….
after that we rushed to tow to buy balloons and then to P.S cafe…
we sat at the table to get everything pasted and done…
we even told Vans to be late…
hahaha
anyways, I love the balloons we bought for her…


the weight is soooo cute!!
pointless & expensive but soooo pretty!!!!!!!!!

& i thought Vans would try to open it…
thinking there was something inside…


suzie zoooooooo

anyways….
food at P.S Cafe


French Onion Soup
with garlic crostini & melting gruyere
mehhh….. nothing to die for…


Oh the fries were yummy…
& the portion is like… WOW….


PS. SHEPERD’S PIE & SOUP
tasteful blend of ground beef, vegetables & spices topped with rustic buttered mash, oven-baked & served with pea & ham soup
the piewas good but the pea soup was yucks……. eekkk…


GREEN GARDEN LASAGNE
garden vegetables tossed with mozzarella cheese, bechamel & portobello mushroom duxelle, layered with herb ricotta, spinach pasta & baked till bubbling, served with shaved fennel & almond salad

disappointed…..it was quite bland…


CHICKEN PARMIGIANO
pan seared breast of chicken topped with chunky tomato sauce, garlic ciabatta crouton & hand grated pecorino cheese, gratineed & served with sticky balsamic dressed salad greens
this was pretty good… and damn filling…

seriously….
ordered enough to feed 4 people… maybe 5….
hahaha…..
sadly…. I was quite disappointed in the food….
the only thing that tasted good enough were the Chicken Parmigiano & Fries….
the price would have been more worth paying for if the standard was better…
the pea soup was left untouched after 3 spoons…. 1 by each of us…
the lasagne wasn’t finished either…
I would have liked to try the deserts…
but we were too full man…
service was good though…
ambiance was good too…

Vans’s presents…


Pink laptop cover….
the inside feels damn nice…


planner from starbucks…
and the insides….
hee….


we would have pasted more photos in but the printer and photo machine weren’t on our side…
plus ash said that we had too much of our faces in the planner….
all the wordings were traced out the night before… by ME!! hahaha…


caught the ‘Orphan’ with B. after…
the show is actually pretty cool…
the storyline was interesting….
haven’t watched a movie with a storyline like this one in a while…
Isabelle Fuhrman’s (Esther) performance was awesome…
and she’s only 12…. reminds me of Kristen Dunst when she did ‘Interview with the Vampire’…..
anyways, she’s actually quite pretty outside of the movie….
Aryana Engineer (Max) is soooooo cute!!!!
and she’s actually really hearing-impaired in real-life…..
well this movie was definitely worth the money to watch…


caught ‘The Proposal’ the next day…
funny….
sweet…
Ryan Reynolds is freaking HOOOOOTTT…..
not worth $8….. $5 or $6 maybe….
absolute chick flick….

love hawker meals with B.
yums to the max…

cheap food always tastes the best…
& i love packing food for B.
so fun…
haha

traveling up & down doesn’t feel like a chore….
not when it’s you at the end of that journey…
& not when I don’t mind doing it…

oh crap….
school is in 1 weeks time….
means…
making new friends…
eekk…
i dislike making new friends….
means…
studying…
ehh….. not my no.1 fav…
means…
exams….
not even my top5…
means…
less time with B.
we’ll work around it….

mum’s got new 42inch tele…
OMG….
sigh….

need to get a new lappie…
hee…
mac??

thank you for being you…
thank you for being as sweet as you are…
you’re awesome….
you make every day something to look forward to….
I never want to let go…


P.S: Thanks ash… we should really come up with a holiday called ‘Matchmaker Day’…. specially for you…

it’s all about the little things…

how can I complain…
I can’t….

No wait…
I can…
But I won’t…

Instead…
I am grateful for you…
Thankful for everything you do for me…
The littlest things…
traveling around this tiny little island with me to run errands…
looking out for me…

It doesn’t matter what people say about you…
What you did…

You’re you…
& you’re an awesome girlfriend..
Love you B.

I have ash sitting behind me watching 7even….
just kinda finished a bit of bday present-ing….
my cough is seriously annoying….

long day tomorrow….

my SIM UB orientation leader called me at 10plus today…
and he asks me…
‘Are you going for the orientation at Sentosa?’
me: ‘erm…. uh… yeah… i guess so.’
guy: ‘oh ok good. well it’s compulsory anyway so you have to go.’

Like what!? Then you ask because…………….. you stupid or stupid?!?
please…. don’t ask me such redundant questions…
then he adds on to inform me to bring extra shoes, forms etc….
my reply was just, ‘yeah, I got the letter….’
sorry…. I’m super anti-social to strangers….
I’m only friendly on a need-to-be basis….

and then he tells me that I have to choose my t-shirt size…. only S or….. XS….
like…. what the hell??? what if I’m fat???? ugh…. size-iest assholes…
hahaha….

haha…. nyak nyak…
i am so not a girl….
I have no idea the value of a 0.41 carat diamond ring….

so upsetting….
my sisters may not be back for CNY next year…
*sigh*….
long emails and digital conference is all I get from my jies…
oh wells….
they owe me BIG ang paos and Uber awesome presents….
for being an uber special sister…
and most importantly…. STICKING ME HERE ALONE WITH THE FOLKS!!
and it’s NOT because I can’t get into an overseas uni….
urgh….

super crazy night with ash….
taking pictures of ourselves at Lot1 while I waited for B. to finish work…
a thousand thanks to ash for waiting with me….

good watch…

District 9

caught District 9 on Saturday…
with B, Cass & Kenneth…
last minute decision….
wanted to watch ‘The Orphan’ but fully booked…

BUT District 9 was a lot better than expected…
Produced by Peter Jackson and filmed in Johannesburg, South Africa.
the film did prove to be pretty good but it’s not for everyone…
they filmed it in a different perspective…
in an interview kind of manner…
Sharlto Copley ( Wikus van der Merwe) managed to pull off asshole and hero pretty well…


annoyed me in the beginning of the movie cause of the way he treated the aliens…
like super loser poser…
but he pretty much grows as the movie progresses…
and he’s actually pretty good looking…
the aliens (prawns) were pretty awesome…
baby prawn was sooo cute…
hidden hero of the movie…
for a movie with a small budget,
it manages to go beyond expectations.
it’s worth the $8.

still wanna watch ‘The Orphan’…
heard from ash it’s good…
ahhhh….

went to church on sunday morning…
day didn’t start off good AT ALL…
fuck…
but got better…
*hugs* to my love doc…
thanks monkey…

fun fun with ash tmr…
weeezz!!!!
