The photos of Cho posing with guns and knives were disturbing. Could it have been prevented? I say, definitely. The issue on the gun laws has never been seriously discussed over and dealt with; and those symptoms and signs the boy showed.. oh well I guess we're all just human. We are constantly in need of some serious wake-up call in order to get action done. One such example would be Hurricane Katrina which revealed one of America's longest kept secret: poverty-stricken New Orleans. For years the citizens have suffered under the claws of poverty, and it was as if the hurricane blew away the covers of this hidden ugly truth of the world's biggest and richest nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, time is flying like a rocket. :( &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;5 more days&lt;/span&gt; before I leave Singapore to join my brother for 52 days in Canada/US. I &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;hate&lt;/span&gt; counting down. I hate packing. I'm going to dread the super duper long plane ride. It's going to be one long, long roadtrip... and will miss Singapore really really badly. (Esp the food. ok haha no I'm just kidding..) But I guess it's time to gain new experiences, time to refresh my mind, time to let go of all the unnecessary baggage in Singapore.......... I shall create a new blog for the trip and if time permits I will update on my trip while I'm there, whee.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-7211489531650376355?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/7211489531650376355/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=7211489531650376355&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/7211489531650376355'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/7211489531650376355'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2007/04/i-love-this-song.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-2379833238164241650</id><published>2007-04-17T00:30:00.001+08:00</published><updated>2007-04-17T00:30:13.075+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;KL was a BLAST!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;It was super duper fun fun fun fun and I want to do it again!

Though we got cheated by a damn 'premium' cab, my camera dropped onto the floor and spoilt, actually went to the wrong hotel room and got greeted by a half-naked Indian man instead of our wonderful hotel room..... what matters most is that we are now safe and sound! No robbery, no rape, no murder, no lost passport... PHEW.

I remembered feeling very pissed and not looking forward to the shopping trip (like wth? who doesn't look forward to BKK shopping trips?!) because I missed a really good opportunity to work with a friend.... And then also because of this Bangkok trip I couldn't get that SGH job that Lydia recommended to me because they got someone to fill the vacancy before I came back; and thus I missed another opportunity to work with a friend. :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Was starting to give up on job searching and just slack the rest of my holidays away; however then right after meeting up with Lydia at PS and telling her how much I'd like to work in a hospital, CGH called me and asked me down for an interview the very next day. -.- How coincidental.... Lydia your words very powerful eh (Chris Sligh was also voted off American Idol yesterday, but anyway that's not the point). And then at the interview, there was also another girl trying out for the same job. I was 5 minutes late for the interview, didn't email them the resume form when I should have... but just because I told them I knew Excel (which I don't really know..) the boss decided to hire me instead of the other girl. -.-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok.. so then I got the CGH job and it became one of the best experiences I ever had. I feel so very fortunate to have such a nice first job experience, with wonderful colleagues and bosses, and I still go back to visit them from time to time because it's just SO near my house. (: And Ainah even personally made a bracelet and pair of earrings for me! Gosh. And the most surprising part is, now I'm tutoring their HR secretary's daughter AMaths and English. LOL. So I got a tuition job without approaching anyone or agency. And now I also have a dinner partner before I go for Jap classes at eastpoint every Tuesday, hahaha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SO, life is pretty good now without a job. At least I'm earning some money with the tuition hmm. AND Wendy, Lydia and I are going to KL/Sunway Lagoon 11-13 April! NOW that's something to look forward, a holiday out of Singapore on our own! Hehh. Another thing to look forward would be the trip to USA/Canada when I visit my bro there woohoo. Going to spend &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;52&lt;/span&gt; days there! Gosh I'm going to miss Singapore like hell, esp the food. Haha and yess friends as welll sigh. But I'm excited to get outta Singapore, to escape reality... Anyway this song was in loop since last night -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Marcos Hernandez - The Way I Do&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Didn't wanna hold you&lt;br /&gt;Didn't wanna need you so bad&lt;br /&gt;Didn't wanna wake up&lt;br /&gt;And find that I was falling so fast&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Didn't wanna need you&lt;br /&gt;Didn't wanna need anyone&lt;br /&gt;Now look what you've done&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I can't go on without you&lt;br /&gt;I'm naked&lt;br /&gt;I can't fake it&lt;br /&gt;I'm not that strong without you&lt;br /&gt;Never thought I could love you&lt;br /&gt;The way I do&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I always thought I would stand on my own&lt;br /&gt;Climb a mountaintop all alone&lt;br /&gt;Relying, depending on no one&lt;br /&gt;Now look what you've done&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Such a lovely song heh. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway Swissotel's 70th floor Equinox bar is &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;LOVE&lt;/span&gt;. Wonderful ambience, great music and service, amazing night view of Singapore from 70 storeys..... But abit expensive, ha. Wendy and Lyd I will bring u guys there one day! You guys will love it. Went there with Alethea and Clarissa wednesday night. Dedicated songs and the singer and pianist perform them live.. songs like Love Me by Colin Raye, All Out Of Love by Air Supply, That's Why You Go Away by MLTR. (: So romantic &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;larh&lt;/span&gt;.

I still haven't submitted any university applications! Now NTU biz/accountancy seems more appealing, but.... I guess my dream uni is still NUS? I don't know man. And my dilemma is between accountancy or business. How can people just choose between the two?! Argh. Both of them have absolutely NO relation to what we do in JC so I don't know which of them that I will be interested and do well in. What biology, chemistry? Gosh. And some people still encourage me to do pharmacy. -.- Decisions, decisions, decisions.

We even tried HOT yoga and it's not what you think. They really pushed up the temperature to 29deg in the room and we had to do yoga in there. Perspired liked hell inside, lol. And after that went treadmilling, and I actually finished 3km in 25 minutes! Kudos to me, although I still failed napfa, ha. But I haven't exercised that much for a long time ever since A'levels. Anyway this free trial thing really got my lazy butt away from my computer and now I'm more determined than ever to use the gym downstairs to the fullest, whoo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway recently I was packing the drawer full of photo albums and I realised my parents LOVED taking pictures of us when we were young. There were at least 20-30 albums man. Found some really cute ones....

I've decided which route I'm going to take. And that is &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Business School&lt;/span&gt;.  But haven't decided between &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;NUS&lt;/span&gt; or &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;SMU&lt;/span&gt;. But gonna apply to all anyway. Today went to all 3 universities to check out their open houses with Lydia. Our journeys and experiences there were just damn hilarious. We got lost in SMU (didn't know the open house was at the administration building), had our ears blasted in the NTU shuttle bus because the speakers were just beside us and the guy had to shout into the mike... We even ate chicken rice on the bus (one whole packet each!) to Buona Vista from SMU, because we were rushing to NTU to catch a talk (which we still missed in the end -.-). But at least I gained some insight and enlightenment. And finally made my decision. That's the most important thing. NOW to apply. Hmmm, so mafan. -.- Shall apply another day, ha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last night Wendy and Lydia stayed over! Heh, and we made... &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;fondue&lt;/span&gt;!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/385750/DSC00351.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/201095/DSC00351.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/425659/DSC00352.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/320293/DSC00352.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At first we were like wah-ing and gushing over how nice the chocolate tasted (it tasted really &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;really&lt;/span&gt; good), but when we decided to add some water it became lumpy and started to look alot like shit so we lost our appetite. LOL. Nevertheless it was fun making the fondue and just fooling around. Slept at 3am and had to wake up around 9am today for the open house and I'm freeeeeeaking exhausted now. Open houses really take the life out of you, no joke. And the weather! Omg, I could feel my skin barbecuing under the scorching sun when we were walking to the various universities. -.-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Why does it feel so different now? =| Argh I think I had enough.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-117353451563510757?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/117353451563510757/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=117353451563510757&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/117353451563510757'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/117353451563510757'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2007/03/how-can-one-feel-so-happy-yet-so-sad.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-117319063275155133</id><published>2007-03-06T22:07:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2007-03-06T22:17:12.763+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>SO my job contract at CGH has just ended.

Oh well, at least Marilyn from HR said if I had time to go back for any other temporary job during my vacation feel free to call her.

Talking to them is so comfortable we can talk about anything under the sun, moon and sky. They took away whatever anxieties I had and I can simply pour out anything to them. Thank God for them. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Went to the Suntec career fair today. Nothing much except for some NTU brochures and interesting jobs. Had a korean dinner with them, and then the much loved chatting at the fountain. Its been ages since we did that and I'm so glad we got to do that today. Then bought chocolates from Candy Empire for my colleagues as 'farewell' gifts for next week, as my contract is ending next Tuesday. :( But anyhow, I'll definitely go back to visit sometime; and if there are still any temporary positions there when I finish making my decision and rest I really don't mind going back. But I seriously need a break to think for myself, and organise my priorities. There are still many things that I want to do that I haven't gone about to start on them. Like driving! And scuba-diving! Gosh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last 2 days of work. Hmmm. Hope these 2 days are good, haha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;/EDIT&lt;br /&gt;Anyway I just watched &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Ugly Betty&lt;/span&gt;. Damn nice show!

Superstar already larh, lol.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Been having sleepless nights of late. Can't seem to just plonk on the bed and immediately sleep soundly like before anymore, haha. I'll toss and turn and think about random and useless stuff. -.- Anyway I don't think I'll extend my work at CGH, I need time for myself and to make decisions. If time permits I'll look for another job with Clarissa. But it was an extremely &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;wonderful&lt;/span&gt; experience nonetheless. :) Although it was just a month, I'll miss the people there terribly; especially Ainah who has become my godmother, lol.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aiyah, I think it's that time of the month soon.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-117293035937758896?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/117293035937758896/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=117293035937758896&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/117293035937758896'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/117293035937758896'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2007/03/ok-i-dont-really-know-why-i-just-cried.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-117288502019957416</id><published>2007-03-03T09:21:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2007-03-03T10:19:43.880+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Alright.. for anyone who's interested or concerned, here goes my unexpected results:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;General Paper - A2&lt;br /&gt;Mathematics - A&lt;br /&gt;Biology - A&lt;br /&gt;Chemistry - B&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Very&lt;/span&gt; surprised for my Bio and GP results.

Doomsday's&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; tomorrow&lt;/span&gt;. If I don't update this blog for a long time after tomorrow, you know how it went. LOL. Working half-day tomorrow somemore, I think I'll just go crazy. I hate making mistakes during work; luckily they forgave me because I'm just a temp. But the feeling still sucks. :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Too many things on my mind. And I don't know if I can sleep tonight. But perhaps I'll still fall asleep because I'm simply &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;exhausted&lt;/span&gt; today. HR asked me whether I want to extend my working period (my contract ends next Tue); but I really want my REST. Oh well see how my results are first. Not bad ah, work for 3 weeks only and some guy wants to treat me to lunch on Monday. And that guy's NOT my boss -.- AHHH. Too many things too many things on my mind I feel as if it's going to explode. But good to keep busy before results day so I won't think so much la hur. Thank God for the NICE people in my job hee. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And to dear Lydia, S06-ers and EVERYONE getting their results tomorrow: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;ALL THE BEST!!! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And no matter what the results, always remember Jeremiah 29:11:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-117274506529084668?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/117274506529084668/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=117274506529084668&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/117274506529084668'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/117274506529084668'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2007/03/so.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-117239178283246989</id><published>2007-02-25T16:01:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2007-02-25T16:40:26.110+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/907946/COOL4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/320/535929/COOL4.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isn't this picture cool?

There are still many other photos in his album that blew me away, but I'm just too lazy to save and upload all of them here. :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The day is gradually approaching. Results day, that is. As I was reading some of my ex-classmates' blogs, I'm beginning to feel the jitters. Actually I was not bothered at all until I read their entries. Hmm I haven't had nightmares of results day yet, (like the ones I had before O'Level results day) but boy whenever I think of that day I get immediate goosebumps. But I guess what's done is done, and all we can only do now is to pray and leave it all to Him. :)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-117239178283246989?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/117239178283246989/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=117239178283246989&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/117239178283246989'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/117239178283246989'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2007/02/isnt-this-picture-cool-its-not.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-117224515596875626</id><published>2007-02-23T23:21:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2007-02-24T12:07:02.406+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;blockquote&gt;Where are we?

But I really really LOVE this song by Imogen Heap. I remember it was one of the songs in You Think You Can Dance, and its one of those songs that just makes you.. think about life. Cliche but true. Where are we? Why are we even here in this place, this world? Are we all simply trying to find that little light amidst all this darkness in the world? Or are we only able to rummage through those rare blissful memories at the same time trapped in a bleak present and future?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, visited Joo's blog, heard Mika's &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Grace Kelly&lt;/span&gt; and I'm totally addicted. :D Haa. I just love his sound, brightens up anyone's day. :) I'm also addicted to XXXHOLiC, an anime. Just watched finish the last episode, bet its going to be a hit if a drama serial or movie comes out on it. Oh gosh I'm just intrigued by all these amazing stuff that Japanese can think and imagine up, heh. And OH YEAH, Mayday's latest album &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;rocks&lt;/span&gt;. I'm definitely going to their concert if they come to Singapore this year. Just hope their tix are not that expensive. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far work has been alright. Stressful, but quite fun because I get to talk random topics with random people. Hah, that's what you get for being a receptionist. But you have to keep smiling. Smile smile smile.. that's why my mentor says that you cannot have mood swings if you are at the reception or else there'll be lots of 'feedbacks' aka complaints. Ok.. payday soon. Muahah, although I haven't worked much because of the CNY hols. Ah, I feel a fever coming.. Sigh! I want to see the flowers at Sentosa!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;/EDIT&lt;br /&gt;FINALLY NARUTO FILLERS HAVE ENDED!!!!! Oh gosh I'm freaking excited for Shippuuden!

What can I say........ tiring? entertaining? interesting? stressful?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I know that I've been teased about my 'dice' earrings twice (my interviewer said I should go into the IR casino business in the future), saw a real mortuary for the 1st time (AND he says he goes there most of the time to chill because its the most 'peaceful' place nobody disturb), witnessed a customer complaining about ward food and threatening to call SPH and reporters to come, franking and sorting mails for the 1st time...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, being a receptionist alone is freaking STRESSFUL. Have to call this person, call that person, remember dept numbers, remember where the depts are situated, entertain irritated patients.. eeeeks it's HELL. Luckily I'm doing office duty tomorrow morning, but going to be receptionist again in the noon.. Sigh! Hope tomorrow will be a better day. Working life sucks la, unless you're in sales or retail I guess. Anyway I like my badge! Don't know if I can keep it after I'm done with CGH. Heh. Hope I can. And the people at CGH are horribly NICE.. (except maybe that one old grumpy secretary =p) Especially that lady who comes to collect the mail who liked my earrings haha. And the receptionist in charge of me has become my 'mom', and my supervisor my 'dad'. Wow, on the 1st day they already made me their daughter -.- And the man who interviewed me the previous day is really funny, today he showed me around the hospital, telling me what food is nice and purposely brought me to the mortuary.. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I still don't want to work already. :( LOL. Nvm... it's going to be just 1 month. Phew!

Found &lt;a href="http://www.wretch.cc/blog/gyapower"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Jiro's blog&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.wretch.cc/blog/wuchun10cool"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Wu Zun's blog&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. Heh. But really la, see Jiro's blog pictures can nosebleed LOL. But Wu Zun's blog more interesting to read, that's also because he has English translation so easier to read. So sad only 15 episodes, I only finished 10 because the series haven't ended in Taiwan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Talking about Hana Kimi, I'm going to learn JAP! YES, signed up for basic jap classes. Muahaha. Unbelievable right. Starting in Feb. Don't know how it's going to be, hmm, hope its fun. And I'm going to Bangkok the day after tomorrow, woohoo. And I BETTER get a job after I come back. Feel so guilty spending my parents' money. Hope HPB calls me soon. -fingers crossed- So sad I can't start immediately, everyone seems to want immediate starters -.- can't they wait till Feb?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh yeah, on a random note I watched King and The Clown. Total gay-ness and Lee Junki's just like a girl in there, darn pretty somemore. But it's pretty interesting show, heh. Find that nowadays more and more shows seem to promote gay-ness, even Hana Kimi -.-&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-117007695024298136?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/117007695024298136/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=117007695024298136&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/117007695024298136'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/117007695024298136'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2007/01/everyone-should-watch-hana-kimi.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-116978816319078774</id><published>2007-01-26T12:44:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2007-01-26T13:11:58.216+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>I find that I'm updating here even lesser now when I'm so free, than during the critical A'Level period. Such an irony. When we are so caught up in studies and work, we feel like slacking, and now when we've got so much time to rest and slack, we feel like working. At least that's how I feel now. Been falling sick now and again, and now I have this horrible cough with phlegm choking up my windpipe it's hard to sleep and breathe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, it's pretty hard for me to find a job now anyway since they are all looking for immediate starters, and I'm going off to Bangkok next Wednesday to Sat. LOL. Could have gotten this CPF job at Tampines building with Ho Ying, but in the end heard the job was cheap labour and exploitative. Slaves for the govt. -.- But so much for being thrifty and all. I'm going to work my butt off from Feb to April before I leave for US and Canada to visit my brother. (YES!!!! At last) I want to visit the Niagara Falls.. the NY Times Square and the bustling cities.. the themeparks and Disneyworld.. So I hope to get the SGH job with Lydia when I come back from BKK! Actually I've always wanted to work in a hospital, to experience the worklives of nurses and doctors like in Greys' Anatomy LOL. But of course there wouldn't be as many scandals, haa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Argh, my computer is being such a nuisance these days. It keeps flickering and changing color, so now I can't really see what I'm typing so pardon any typing errors if there are any. Been spending alot of time with my mom these days and loving it. Haven't been spending time with her when she was working and I having the Alevels, so this is the best time to just hang out and talk talk talk. :D Our conversations can be quite interesting sometimes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh yeah, yesterday I watched &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Pan's Labyrinth&lt;/span&gt; with Lydia! Wow, it was a really amazing movie, no wonder critics gave it 5 stars and it won Best Foreign Film. Though it was in Spanish all the way, I still could immerse myself into the story anyway. Kudos to the young actress. Everyone should go catch it if they love fantasies like LOTR. Pretty dark and violent, but it balanced out with a good ending :) The movie only lasted 1hour plus though, left me and Lydia wanting to watch more movies. Next up, Illusionist? Heh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And I'm also addicted to Naruto and Bleach, sigh! And this darn computer is giving me withdrawal symptoms because I can't watch them now! Oh well, shall rent DVDs later, ha. And I watched finish the Kdrama My Girl. A hilarious and super duper sweet series. Reminds me a lil of Samsoon. And I officially love Lee Jun Ki now. HAHA. Don't know who's he? Go check it out yourself :P&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-116978816319078774?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/116978816319078774/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=116978816319078774&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/116978816319078774'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/116978816319078774'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2007/01/i-find-that-im-updating-here-even.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-116896421496076351</id><published>2007-01-16T23:42:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2007-01-18T18:25:28.140+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Muse concert experience described in 2 words: &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;AMAZING, -LY DANGEROUS&lt;/span&gt;. When we reached there at 530pm (the concert starts at 8pm), there was a super-duper long queue already. Almost 6500 people packed into Fort Canning Part = HAVOC. Screaming, jumping, pushing, trampling, body surfing, sweaty and inconsiderate people.. OMG. My handphone main button actually came off. -.- But Muse was FANTASTIC, performed my favourites such as Starlight, Hurricane and Butterflies (the piano by Matt Bellamy was AMAZING, ahhh), New Born, Time Is Running Out, Stockholm Syndrome (that song is ringing in my head still)... Just that the mike was quite muffled so half the time we only heard screaming and shrieking from the crowd and the guitars and bass. And it was GREAT to see Cheow Joo and Shimin again! :) Pretty girls. Haha. Ok! Here goes the best pictures I could take of Muse with my lousy handphone, heh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/443117/DSC00240.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/104007/DSC00240.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;Before dark..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/474741/DSC00245.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/973822/DSC00245.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Matt Bellamy on the piano!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/730434/DSC00248.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/782496/DSC00248.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thought this picture was the BEST. Good lighting, Bellamy in the middle looking like a star.. :D&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All in all, the $87 was worth it. But now I can't hear properly for the next few days. MUSE PLEASE COME BACK SOON!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And oh yeah, the previous day I had stomach flu. :( So couldn't go Siti's chalet.. like !!! So wasted. Nvm, going to meet up with them soon with DES!!! She finally returns from Indo and Aussie.. :) Can't wait, heh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;/EDIT&lt;br /&gt;Ok, am now suffering from post-Muse syndrome and fever. Arghh. Someone save me.

End of 2006, on to 2007. Brand new year, brand new start, brand new set of challenges. But why don't I feel anything? I don't know whether I should feel excited, or sad, or anxious, or... Maybe I just feel &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;ambivalent&lt;/span&gt; (as taught by Toh Toh). Maybe the reason I feel nothing is because I don't have school on 3rd Jan. Muahahah. So it continues to feel like a holiday. Hmmm. A simple countdown this year, I also don't really feel like welcoming 2007 with a big bang. 2007 just means I'm going to be one year older. (n..i..n..e..t..e..e.....) Darn its so difficult to even spell that out. AH whatever, I feel like I'm going to become an old hag with dark eye rings and winkles and a pancake face. -.-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, should I do a set of New Year resolutions even though I never fulfil them? Ok I shall. Here goes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Become more involved in church, go for mission trip '07, join the music and evangelistic ministry and get back to playing that organ! (A'levels has turned me rusty.. :( )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Exercise! Get healthy! Eat less carbo! Slim down to 42kg! Get rid of thunder thighs, pancake face...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Never promise anything that I'm not sure that I can fulfil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. More family time, now that my bro's overseas I have a duty to keep my parents company so they don't feel lonely :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Be more careful and thrifty with money (now I seem to be spending money like drinking water.. post-christmas sales you see)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Spend more time with friends :) And get in touch with peeps whom I haven't met for a long long time..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Cope and do well in school (university I hope), listen in lectures, take notes blah blah&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Pick up at least one new skill! (eg. driving, scuba-diving etc) or do something daring eg. bungee jumping, backpacking..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. Participate in more community-involvement programmes like OCIP!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. A fun-filled, eventful, meaningful and enjoyable 2007 :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YAY done. Shall review it again on 31st Dec 2007. If this blog still exists. Alright 2007, BRING IT ON! And HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE READING THIS!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;/EDIT&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/741291/BOOKS.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/130598/BOOKS.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Forgot to mention, bought these 2 books from MPH yesterday. :) Because they were on discount! &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;The Time Traveler's Wife&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Inheritance of Loss&lt;/span&gt;. I saw Mitch Albom's &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;For One More Day&lt;/span&gt;, but it was $32.90! Gosh, expensive book. Anyway I heard these two books are really good.. can't wait to start on them! :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;And I can't believe I cried when my brother called from Canada. I guess I just missed him too much. :(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-116755228497656966?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/116755228497656966/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=116755228497656966&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/116755228497656966'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/116755228497656966'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2006/12/its-bitch-convincing-people-to-like.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-116736053842264804</id><published>2006-12-29T10:16:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-12-29T10:48:58.446+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>So after a week of gruelling shopping for bags, passport holders, winter clothings and whatnots, my brother has flown off last night to Canada for his overseas attachment. 6 months! Quite a long period of time, but everyone at the airport were saying that time will just fly past. And I guess it does, here I am completed with my JC life and going on to university already. I feel &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;damn&lt;/span&gt; old. And it doesn't help much that my birthday is just next month. :'( I'm an OLD old hag. Anyway, it was heartwarming seeing all the church people there last night, joking with my brother that he'll bring a Canadian girlfriend back and all.. and just being there for him despite the rain and travelling distance. Then Bro Matt prayed for us, and my mom actually cried after his prayer, lol. It was pretty emotional although we were all trying to put on smiling faces for my brother. Especially when he went through the departure gates and we were all at the glasspane waving as many times as we could. Oh well, I'll miss you&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; alot&lt;/span&gt;, bro :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway had a stayover Christmas party with the Hotbeans at Weilin's place on the 26th. :D Slept at 5am in the end, but that's what stayovers are for right? Watched Final Destination and the lamest and very disturbing Date Movie. Played pool, games, ice breakers though we didn't need any icebreaking, gift exchange (I loved my gift, Eliz! And hope you liked mine too ;)) and food food FOOD! Alright, shall let the pictures do the talking :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;Our logcake! :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/146585/CHRISTMAS5.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/320/144049/CHRISTMAS5.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gift exchange :)&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/474121/CHRISTMAS4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/320/925461/CHRISTMAS4.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/180624/CHRISTMAS2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/320/558877/CHRISTMAS2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/182965/CHRISTMAS1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/320/234779/CHRISTMAS1.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yay, I LOVE you guys to bits!! &lt;3 &lt;3 &lt;3 &lt;3 &lt;3 A heart for each one of you!

And I've bought their tix!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/833267/DSC00175.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/683396/DSC00175.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At an early bird price of $85. Concert price would be at $110. :D :D Ahhh I'm so excited for the concert. I'm sure it's gonna be a BLAST and worth every dollar. Joo, if you're reading this can I come along with ya for the concert? Because none of my close friends are fans of Muse.. :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And.. I've also bought my favourite ADIDAS jacket! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/521848/DSC00176.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/498019/DSC00176.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was love at first sight.. heh. Saw it with Wendy at Suntec last week and couldn't stop thinking about it. So I bought it today! Heh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The last 2 nights were spent at class chalet. :D Really a fun-filled time of chatting, playing cards and charades all night long, watching DVDs... got to know the class people much more. :) Thought the first night was lovely.. Vera and I went down to the beach for a walk and there were so many stars that night! Then we saw not 1, not 2, but FOUR shooting stars! OMG. Hurriedly made a wish on the 2nd shooting star, haha. I've never seen a shooting star before, so I feel damn lucky to have seen 4 that night! And then had a drink with the other girls at the Blue Hut, drank Barcadi lime and Kesther became drunk just drinking 1/5 of it LOL. The next night was the BBQ, was kinda nice to see Mrs Gay after quite some time.. but seeing her reminds me of the A'Level results. =S Watched Silent Hill, very exciting show but got cut off at the end because the player couldn't read the DVD anymore -.- So didn't get to watch the ending. But such a pity we didn't get to cycle! Even wanted overnight cycling but due to rain the first day and waking up super late the next day, we couldn't. Oh welllll hope there's a next time! We should have more class gatherings.. FUN!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last Wednesday Wendy, Lydia and I went to the zoo. Haven't been to the zoo since primary school I think, we saw Jean Danker! When we were having a break and eating Ben and Jerry's. :D I LOVE Ben and Jerry's. Anyway we saw my favourite PENGUINS! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/820153/DSC00163.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/253329/DSC00163.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Super duper &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;cute&lt;/span&gt; these birds are.. reminds me of HAPPY FEET! And saw one penguin that kept yawning and almost topple over, hilarious! But it was a rainy day man, couldn't watch the Animal Friends show because of the rain! :( I think I have a &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;love-hate&lt;/span&gt; relationship with the rain. I love it when it rains when I'm snuggled up in bed with a good book; but abhore it when I'm out without an umbrella or in a really bad mood. The rain kinda foreshadows my mood.. often I find that it rains whenever I'm grumpy, heh. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, we also found a hardworking crocodile. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/506979/DSC00168.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/279577/DSC00168.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The MUGGER crocodile. LOL. Doesn't look very hardworking though. And I got so &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;wuliao&lt;/span&gt; at the Fragile Forest that I chased these ducks along the whole trek.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/143090/DSC00174.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/666687/DSC00174.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These ducks have got to be the most spoilt ducks ever. They didn't even try to fly away or escape when I chased them. They just waddled faster when I walked faster, and then waddled slower when I slowed down. -.- Lazy things, lol. And found this sign cute..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/935821/DSC00162.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/949367/DSC00162.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kangaroo Crossing! Wanted to feed them, but had to pay $5 for the food so we decided not to, heh. Another of my favourite animals! :) I remember feeding baby kangaroos with milk bottles in Australia a long time ago and that's when I fell in love with them, haha. And then we fed the pigs too!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/839117/DSC00173.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/904713/DSC00173.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I see them I think of pork. Talking about pork, I finally ate at &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;New York New York&lt;/span&gt; with Wendy last Tue! :D PORK LASAGNA. One of their bestsellers and it's very good. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/94209/DSC00159.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/329829/DSC00159.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And then we met up with Lydia that night for Marina steamboat! :D That girl just came back from Japan that day, reminds me of last year when I went. I miss Japan and Taiwan &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;SO&lt;/span&gt; so much still, sigh. I want to go back! -sobs. Nvm, shall wait for Bangkok with family and Genting with Wendy and Lydia next year! :D I just LOVE holidays..... ok, who doesn't? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And... THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT IS IN THE AIR! Now its time to remind ourselves of what Christmas is really all about.. the birth of our Savior and a time of thanksgiving and joy with family! :D I just love hearing the wonderful Christmas carols everywhere and seeing the light-ups in town and the sense of celebration lingering everywhere..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Christmas isn't Christmas till it happens in your heart :)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright, this is one loooong entry. I find that I get bored really easily. Like now. I better find a job for next year soon! Most prolly going to Wingtai to look for a job or perhaps some admin job if I want a better pay. But I think I'm going more for the experience rather than for the moolah. :) And I better get my driving license SOON! Shall go read finish my library book now, they are due tomorrow! Guess I gotta re-loan one of them..&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-116627961270796030?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/116627961270796030/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=116627961270796030&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/116627961270796030'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/116627961270796030'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2006/12/im-exhilarated.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-116562999313248172</id><published>2006-12-09T08:29:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-12-09T22:29:08.546+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I'M BACK FROM TAIWAN! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And suffering from post-Taiwan syndrome. :`( I miss Taiwan already!! Actually more of the people in my tourgroup rather than the country; such as the super-&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;juai&lt;/span&gt; tourguide (his name is actually &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Xiao Cai&lt;/span&gt; a.k.a. small vegetable), the crazy boys (in which the craziest eventually became my godbro!), the two girls I hang out with the most when shopping and at the themepark, the sweet old couples.. actually simply everyone in the tour. In my opinion, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Xiao Cai&lt;/span&gt;'s one of the best tourguides ever. Its really difficult to put everything that happened during the past 7 days down in words, but I gotta say I became much more independent the past few days because there was only me and my mother! We were the only family without men in the tour. We had to carry and take care of our heavy luggages, watch out for ourselves when crossing the road (Taiwan roads are crazy), make sure we leave nothing behind after checking out every hotel.. but it was pretty fun touring with my mother. Though we get on each other's nerves once in a while, haha but that's normal la. I think the tour would be &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;very&lt;/span&gt; different if my dad and bro came along. And oh yeah, I think I spoke the most amount of chinese ever in my life during the past 7 days. Even my mom agrees, LOL.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Advertisement time!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/1600/920272/DSCF0558.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4931/2349/200/840903/DSCF0558.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you look like Jolin Tsai or just interested in this pirated version of Jay Chou above, feel free to comment below! LOL. This is my godbro! :D How did he become my godbro? He simply asked my mother out of a sudden if she could be his godma and so ta-daa, he become my &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;gan di&lt;/span&gt;. He loves to sing &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Xiao Wei&lt;/span&gt;, but it is strongly adviseable to put on your ear-plugs whenever he does that. He loves to go &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Woo!&lt;/span&gt; in your face, stand beside you a long time until you notice him, shake his butt when catwalking down the street and then turn back to give that 'sexy' look to seduce you, dance with his handphone blasting music, wave at you randomly..... so with him around you'll never be bored that I can assure you. But gotta admit, he's a super sweet guy, always offering to carry shopping bags and even following me upstairs to get my mother's watch. A really good &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;gan didi&lt;/span&gt;! Hee. Proud to have him as my godbro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, I'll just sum up the whole tour by putting down what I'll miss most about the trip :)&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss the whole pigging out thing (eat, sleep on the bus, eat again, back to the bus)&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss the karaoke sessions on the bus (though my godbro's version of &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Xiao Wei&lt;/span&gt; was horrible, lol)&lt;br /&gt;I'll definitely miss the shopping&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss the Taiwan snacks! (mua chee, oyster mee sua, delicious fishball soup, icecream peanut popiah.. ahh just all of them)&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss the colourful streets&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss hanging out with the &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;jiemei&lt;/span&gt;s&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss the lovely wind and Genting-like weather&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss all the lame jokes shared with the boys and girls in the grp&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss the super cute and pretty 2-yr old girl in the tourgrp&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss the swimming 'teaching' and competition session during our stay at &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Dao Ming Si&lt;/span&gt;'s house&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss the hot spring!&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Xiao Cai&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll miss my godbrother and his family&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AH.. a truly unforgettable trip. :) Am now trying very hard to adapt to S'pore again. Thank goodness the weather is cooling now, heh. We are very lucky, because right after we visited Chiufen and the Taroke Gorge, Taiwan banned entry into these places because it was too dangerous. There was even a tour bus accident in Chiufen during our trip. Thanks to our amazing driver, we came out all safe and sound. Overall, thank God for bringing us all back to S'pore in one piece!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taiwan elections are today! Hee, came back just before their elections. There were banners and posters EVERYWHERE during our trip. And we even saw firecrackers! They are legal in Taiwan. Learnt alot about Taiwan's history and politics too. &lt;span lang="zh-Hant"&gt;Using 马 from 马英九 + 扁 from 陈水扁 = 骗 , heh.

Ecclesiastes 1:2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just came home from my uncle's funeral service. Its amazing how God works in us sometimes. My uncle accepted Christ only 3 days before his death. On Friday, He accepted Christ in front of us and agreed to be baptised. And then he passed away peacefully on Monday. He has been visiting the temple all his life, and the fact that he readily agreed to be baptised was a surprise. Thank God. :) He works in the most incomprehensible ways. However it was heartbreaking to see my auntie today. She had a stroke earlier this year and is paralysed on one side. When I held her hand and she struggled to smile, I thought about how difficult it is for her to accept her husband's sudden passing away now whatmore with her condition. But she is a strong woman; I'll always remember her lovely smile and hearty laughs whenever we visit for CNY.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its a sad topic, but to be reminded of where my uncle is now is really heartwarming and a blessing! :) Just pray that my granny would accept Christ soon too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prom came and went just like that. All the preparations and all into that night.. paid off! Everyone looked GREAT! Even the guys; first time seeing some effort put into their attire haha ;p and the girls, woah, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;gorgeous&lt;/span&gt;! Ritz food kinda sucked, but at least the programme made up for it! Rod Monterio was the emcee! Hilarious. Prom king was expected, haha. Dashing, la. And hey, how come our table so&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; suay&lt;/span&gt; one. The next table beside us kept winning instead of us! LOL.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway watched Happy Feet the previous day. Aww, Mambo's super cute!

Heard Physics was tough, but everyone taking Physics don't be disheartened! I'm sure they'll moderate yeh. Chemistry is surprisingly much easier than the past years', thank God. :D Anyway had a mini celebration for Vera and Jiat Yue after Chem paper.. Hope you guys like the present and cake! ;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And I absolutely LOVE this song by Keane. They even sound so good live.

Its supposed to be a house by the sea, heh.&lt;br /&gt;So according to my 'masterpiece'..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Your house tells the world that you ought to be a leader. You are a freedom lover and a strong person. You will avoid being alone and seek the company of others whenever possible. You love excitement and create it wherever you go. Once you have a problem, you need a friend with you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You will avoid being alone and seek the company of others whenever possible. You love excitement and create it wherever you go. You have a strong personality and you like to command, influence and control people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You added a flower into your drawing. The flower signifies that you long for love. We also see that you are sensuous, sexual, and privately passionate. You don't think much about yourself.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway sang this song in church service today. :) How appropriate at this trying time.. when we forget Him and choose to carry all our burdens on ourselves instead of trusting them all in His care.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;What a friend we have in Jesus,&lt;br /&gt;all our sins and griefs to bear!&lt;br /&gt;What a privilege to carry&lt;br /&gt;everything to God in prayer!&lt;br /&gt;O what peace we often forfeit,&lt;br /&gt;O what needless pain we bear,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: #B1B589;"&gt;all because we do not carry&lt;br /&gt;everything to God in prayer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Are we weak and heavy laden,&lt;br /&gt;cumbered with a load of care?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Precious Savior, still our refuge&lt;br /&gt;take it to the Lord in prayer&lt;br /&gt;Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold; color: #B1B589;"&gt;Take it to the Lord in prayer!&lt;br /&gt;In His arms He'll take and shield thee&lt;br /&gt;thou wilt find a solace there&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's an old hymn sung many times; but when singing it today, the words suddenly seemed even more meaningful.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-116333444739254701?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/116333444739254701/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=116333444739254701&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/116333444739254701'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/116333444739254701'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2006/11/introducing-my-house-d-haha-drew-it-on.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-116308046385954976</id><published>2006-11-09T21:24:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-11-14T19:48:16.140+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Yay, now I can throw away all my GP and Maths stuff!

Esp. today because I couldn't sleep last night; that time of the month always gives me insomia, moreover with the stress. Ok so far I haven't seriously screwed any papers yet; and yes, its times like these you really feel that God is with you, and the power of prayer. :D Am starting to have some hope in TPJC, because reason no.1: For Bio paper 2, two of our prelim essay questions actually came out! And reason no. 2: Surprisingly A'level biochem option was similar to our prelims! With the complementary base-pairing etc. So yeah, our school's not that hopeless :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4 more papers to go!

Don't know why but it seems like I've lost motivation for it yet I'm still blog-hopping, and fascinating about how some people can have such interesting lives, and then I look at my life now: books, papers, no social life and even when I go out for meals I feel guilty-conscious. Alright 2 papers down, 8 more to go! 4 more days before the next papers, and next week is &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;chaotic&lt;/span&gt;. I don't even want to think about it. Why must Bio paper2 clash with Maths?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway GP was alright, just hope I have enough points for my essay and didn't go out of point. I did on &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;How far is Singapore prepared for future crises&lt;/span&gt;, while majority did technology because it was quite general I guess. Paper 2, I spent quite a long time on summary and couldn't finish AQ (again), urgh. The passage was on Freedom, and was surprisingly quite interesting, about personal freedom. But couldn't find stuff to disagree for AQ, blah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Yang Sisters&lt;/span&gt; is just &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;hilariousssss&lt;/span&gt;. Today's episode about Melvin being adopted and the feng shui way of 'making babies' is &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;damn&lt;/span&gt; funny. I've never laughed so hard in a long time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;All My Life&lt;/span&gt; by KC and Jojo has got to be the best song ever.

In yesterday's Home section of Straits Times, splashed on the first page was an article on a 16-year old boy who was found dead in his bed when his family gave him a birthday surprise in the morning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His mother's my violin teacher. The anguish and shock the family experienced can never be comprehended. It was a really tragic death. Sigh. I even remembered once she asked me and Mildred to find a geography 10-yr series for him in Popular and now.. he's passed away. Although he's not directly related to me, its still really heartbreaking to hear this news. Really pray that her family will recover soon.. although its gonna take some time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway this song by Christina Aguilera really touching. Its about her relationship with her father.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Seems like it was yesterday&lt;br /&gt;When I saw your face&lt;br /&gt;You told me how proud you were,&lt;br /&gt;But I walked away&lt;br /&gt;If only I knew what I know today&lt;br /&gt;Ooh, ooh&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would hold you in my arms&lt;br /&gt;I would take the pain away&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for all you've done&lt;br /&gt;Forgive all your mistakes&lt;br /&gt;There's nothing I wouldn't do&lt;br /&gt;To hear your voice again&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes I wanna call you&lt;br /&gt;But I know you won't be there&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh, I'm sorry for blaming you&lt;br /&gt;For everything I just couldn't do&lt;br /&gt;And I've hurt myself by hurting you&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some days I feel broken inside&lt;br /&gt;But I won't admit&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes I just wanna hide&lt;br /&gt;'Cause it's you I miss&lt;br /&gt;And it's so hard to say goodbye&lt;br /&gt;When it comes to this, ooh&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Would you tell me I was wrong?&lt;br /&gt;Would you help understand?&lt;br /&gt;Are you looking down upon me?&lt;br /&gt;Are you proud of who I am?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There's nothing I wouldn't do&lt;br /&gt;To have just one more chance&lt;br /&gt;To look into your eyes&lt;br /&gt;And see you looking back&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Christina Aguilera - Hurt&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-116203141535010374?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/116203141535010374/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=116203141535010374&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/116203141535010374'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/116203141535010374'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2006/10/life-is-too-fragile.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-116168236447041191</id><published>2006-10-24T17:25:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-10-24T17:32:44.483+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Hmm Thais and Japs have a really funny sense of humour.

Wish I've done that too....but oh well, now am stuck in the dreaded Alevels and can't get out of it, so just have to go through it, heh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stayed back after school to do some "mugging". Tried but kinda a failed attempt. Shaina went for lunch with her uncle and mother, and Vera and Shulin went home. So joined Veron and Genever, 'cause anyway I was doing the same compre as Veron. Gosh, I think I only manage to finish 5 pathetic qns of the RJC Prelim paper, the rest of the time were spent chatting and eating waffle and drinking bubble tea.... and anyway the passage was so damn long, couldn't concentrate at all. Crapped and laughed like mad; it was actually real fun talking to the both of them. :) And then we went home around 5 plus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And alright, I really don't feel like going school tomorrow. Hm. -.- Yay, project runway tonight! Designing gowns for Ms USA.. A must watch, heh.

Woohoo! 7days, departing 2nd Dec. With Five Star Tours. :D :D &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;I can't wait&lt;/span&gt;. So I shall work hard now and hope I reap what I sow! Anyway its the first day of the travelfair at Expo and its already damn crowded. Here're some tipssss if you're planning to go to the fair!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Check out the booth that specifically promotes the country that you're planning to visit (eg. Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan..). The promoters there are &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;much more&lt;/span&gt; passionate and accurate (well, its their home country anw). The man at Chan Brothers said its gonna be 5-10 degrees and we were like so shocked its gonna be so cold; while the Taiwanese lady said it would be at most 15 degrees, something like Genting. So its best to check out the individual country booths; they give good tips (such as the cheaper shopping night markets eg. Kaoshiung) and accurate information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Preferably go to female promoters. The men (esp the &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;older&lt;/span&gt; uncles) are just concerned with their commissions and can't be bothered with your questions. The females are much more informative; the lady at Five Stars Tours even went through the whole itenary with us with many interesting pictures/photos. While the man at SA tours just sat there and stared at us. WTH.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Don't only go to the big players (eg. Chan Bros, SA..), check out the small players. They do provide some good stuff the big players don't. Such as I'm going to stay at &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Dao Ming Si&lt;/span&gt;'s house! Which is actually a huge 5 star spa resort which SA and Chan Bros do not offer. So yeah, check out the several itenaries and compare/contrast like in Bio. (and always remb to bring a pen!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. The early bird always catches the worm. Go early, where they'll offer more discounts and free goodies (eg. to the 1st 50 customers, 1st 100 ..), as they usually run out the last day. So, yeah its best to go there early.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And by the way the fair ends on Sunday if you want to check it out! :) Alright, back to reality.. the A's. :'( Nvm, Taiwan shall be my&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;motivation now! Anyway, &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;I LOVE Scissor Sisters&lt;/span&gt;. They have such great songs like Laura, Filthy/Gorgeous, Take Your Mama Out, Mary and their new song I Don't Feel Like Dancin'.

Thanks Wendy for the 20% staff discount hee. We travelled from Harbourfront to PS to Marina Square.. Gosh, my birks were killing me. I don't think I'm wearing those birks anymore, lol. Then we ate dinner at coffee club, and had my long-craved country pie and fondue! Too bad we didn't hang out at Esplanade as planned because it was too late. But nvm, perhaps one day after studying we can go there and catch up somemore! Missing you guys already. :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright, going travel fair at expo with mom later.. hoho.

Only went school for chem and bio; and in the end didn't even give back our papers! Yeah, perhaps only Chemistry paper 2.. but wah, that paper only makes me even more demoralized. I really, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;really&lt;/span&gt; hope for an E for Chemistry so it doesn't look so bad, but I think I may not even pass. :( URGH why can't I just do well for Chem?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway after chem tutorial we walked over to Tampines CC Macs for breakfast; and in just 15 minutes, we witnessed a guy on a bicycle getting knocked down by a car, and when we wanted to help we stepped on a grass full of HUGE RED ANTS and got attacked by them. -.- We were like screaming hysterically and trying desperately to sweep them off. Urgh, they were like 2 freaking cm long! And their bites are darn painful &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;lah&lt;/span&gt;. Digusting ants. I feel darn itchy just thinking about the incident. Oh yah, then we saw a man talking to himself in Macs.. Weird day. It was just the slackest day. Talked and talked almost the whole day and now am damn shagged.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright, getting back GP and Bio papers tomorrow. =S Not really looking forward to it, but also can't wait to get back all the results so that I can become a full-fledged mugger. And oh yes! Going out with Wendy and perhaps Lydia tomorrow :D Can't wait!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can download Grey's Anatomy via torrent. But I don't know how! Anyone can teach me? :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;/EDIT&lt;br /&gt;Oh gosh. I just saw something really shocking. Its so darn heartbreaking to find backstabbers around your friend; and actually to witness her talking bad right behind your friend's back.. like WTH?! She even claimed to be in my friend's clique somemore. Thank goodness my experience in TPJC doesn't have any of those crap. I wonder if I stayed after 1st 3 mths... would I have experience that too. :( And seeing the state my friend is in... I can just cry. So time and environment &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;do&lt;/span&gt; change people...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-115933637888971072?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/115933637888971072/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=115933637888971072&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/115933637888971072'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/115933637888971072'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2006/09/what-day.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-115902528626803495</id><published>2006-09-23T23:13:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-09-25T18:47:14.373+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>URGHHHHH.

And when Christina said to Burke "&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Don't ever die&lt;/span&gt;"; I just wanted to break down and brawl that instant. Man, when will Season 3 be shown on Channel 5?!

Zhang Ziyi's acting is superb; heck I think its better than Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. I think all the gore and head-chopping and swordfighting can even be compared with Kill Bill. There is so much literature in this movie. I absolutely love the songs and poems.. :) And all the palace scenes are breathtaking. Words don't do this movie justice. Rah, I can't stop thinking about the show; this is what good movies do to you..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I feel like watching alot of movies. I wanna watch World Trade Centre, Miami Vice, The Black Dahlia...

Went to Pariss to eat (finally!) and gosh, the &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Sishamo&lt;/span&gt; fish was so good we had to have seconds. Once you bite into the crispy skin it was all &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;roe&lt;/span&gt; inside, it was damn good! And there was &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;oreo cheesecake&lt;/span&gt; too! My&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;favourite&lt;/span&gt;. I don't know, but no matter how an oreo cheesecake is made it'll &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;always&lt;/span&gt; taste good, haha. I have a really funny picture of my mom pigging out but in order to save her face I won't upload here, lol.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After that I got almost everything on my shopping list! And even new underwear! I love them! They are so colourfully-striped, haha. I'm so fortunate to have such a fabulous mom; we travelled from tampines mall to white sands and even all the way to parkway parade! But after all that pigging we should exercise anyway; and really, shopping is a great way to exercise. Now I'm listening to Jay Chou's new album (I really got it!); I still prefer his &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;qi li xiang&lt;/span&gt; album, but this album's not bad too, I like tracks 1, 7 &amp; 8. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just watched &lt;a href="http://www.lynchposters.com/images/Nightmare-Before-Christmas.jpg"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Nightmare Before Christmas&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; again. Sucha touching story, almost cried. Jack &amp; Sally. :D I LOVE Tim Burton's movies; from Sleepy Hollow to Corpse Bride.. love them all! Alright time to enjoy the liberation.... &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Ahhhh&lt;/span&gt;.

Heh, can already feel all the Chem and Maths diffusing out, hope Bio doesn't 'cos its Bio paper 1 tomorrow. Today's Chem MCQ was quite bad; and surprisingly tougher than last year's AJ paper 1. -.- So many calculations I wanna die.

Was sneezing really badly the whole day. Today's so, so much better. Just came back from a swim! It just feels so good to exercise a 'lil after all those cramming, and being stuck at the desk. But the slacking has got to me. Now I find it quite difficult to cram Biology again. Urgh. But nevertheless I'm going to try to crammm later. What kind of option does Bio paper 3 give us anyway? We even have to study core as well as the whole book on option topics. The only option is between 2 essay questions. And only 1 and a half hours to finish 3 questions with 4 parts worth 15 marks each, and 1 essay of 20 marks?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...............&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jiayou, people, jiayou.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;/EDIT&lt;br /&gt;OH GOSH.

And so far its been alright, but not fantastic too. So far, Chem's the worst for me I guess. And I made two damn careless mistakes for Maths paper 1. Bio was a 'lil better than I expected.

So everyone going through this don't give up alright! Just do to the best of your ability and leave the rest to God. :) Even if this prelim is not well done, there's still time to catch up! JIAYOU!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway Singapore Idol's just over. Ah, Hady sang my favourite song... Desperado! :D Hah, voted for him and Jon this time; 'cos Jon was too good already.

The moment I open my Biology file, all I can think of is &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;SLEEP&lt;/span&gt;. Man. I need to really buck up my studying pace.

At least there's some time to study in between, like &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;one afternoon&lt;/span&gt;. -.- One afternoon to cram all the Biology facts.

Got up in the morning and when I looked in the mirror I found a gash across my right cheek. -.- I thought it was because while rubbing my eyes my nails has scratched my face. But now when I looked closer, I found two! And there're another 2 smiliar gashes on my right thigh. That's like super weird, have I been having catfights in my sleep?! And my fingernails aren't long anyway. Now I look like some pirate, or maybe the victim. I'm Mrs Sparrow for at least a few days now!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can't seem to focus these days. School isn't helping at all. Everyday I return home from school I'm just too shagged to start studying, and then I end up sleeping or coming online and doing really meaningless stuff like bloghopping and youtubing. URGH. Its the PRELIMS man, what am I doing?! I better START my engineeeee. Time to have self-declared holidays. Even during the week holiday we are not spared!

No more sneezing and coughing in dust-clogged rooms, using up boxes and boxes of tissues, no more sticking tissues up my nose, YES! And I'm loving my new room now, though the bed's not moved in yet and my wardrobe has shrunk to make way for a bigger table. But the computer's now in my room so I'm happy, heh. And no more travelling all the way to Tampines library to study; I can study in my own room! But I have to practise more self-control because the computer's right in front of me. Hmm. I may post up pictures of my new room when I'm done. But now I dread moving all my books and stuff back into my room. Urgh, I have &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;tons&lt;/span&gt; of stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, I like the smell of my new room. And colour. Thank goodness. I don't think I can stand those pink walls any longer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love &lt;i&gt;Life Is Good&lt;/i&gt; by Nathan Hartono. And he's only sixteen if I'm not wrong, and Singaporean too. Such a talent. But that's the problem. I can't find the lyrics of the song anywhere on Google!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And oh yeah, my brother's going Canada next January for some university attachment. For 6 months! LUCKY PIG! I'm visiting him there no matter what.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright, got to head to Ikea or IMM to get stuff for my room again..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Update:&lt;br /&gt;LOL. This is the one of the funniest music videos I've ever watched. Good stuff. I wonder what would happen if one of them slipped towards the end of the video...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="225" height="150"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/pv5zWaTEVkI"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/pv5zWaTEVkI" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="225" height="150"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2nd Update:&lt;br /&gt;Here you go, a picture of my lazy dog and a 'lil part of my room (aka. bed).

We didn't go to the Esplanade, but instead watched them from Marina Square foodcourt. When we looked down Esplanade was super packed! The people really looked like tiny ants. The fireworks was alright, not fantastic; but the company made up for it! :D Had a great time chatting, catching up with the both of them, perhaps going McDonalds' later to have our long-awaited "prata" night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I want to finish up my homework; but my family's tempting me to go out with them to Ikea and Park Mall to shop for our room stuff (lights etc.) Oh well, shall just take a break this National Day. And Lydia's prelims are starting on Monday! Omg. Jiayou, girl!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Btw, I'm addicted to Sexyback by Justin Timberlake.

My house is in a total mess. We're renovating my brother's and my room, so that we can have a more condusive place to study in. However, to choose such a &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;nice&lt;/span&gt; time to do this? All my clothes and my brother's clothes are sprawled over the living room couch, all our stuff; CDs, toys, books, all squeezed into my parents' room and living room, and we're going to have to share rooms after our beds are moved out. The dust in the house is so overwhelming it's clogging up my system, so much that I've been having a bad flu since friday. RAH. And my nose is still leaky now. And they still want to switch the air-con on with all the dust-clogged stuff inside the room. &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Great&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But digging up my stuff is like digging up memories after memories. I feel quite sad throwing many of those stuff away. Goodbye Barbie dolls with messy cut hair and holey clothings, goodbye Polly Pockets (&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;I can't believe I used to play with such tiny stuff&lt;/span&gt;), goodbye O'level books.. However I found many treasures in my room! I uncovered many &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;MANY&lt;/span&gt; letters/postcards from my dearest GB-mates, Clarissa, and my primary school contingent (&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;super sweet stuff..&lt;/span&gt;), many Sec4 farewell and Valentine's Day gifts, numerous sticker booklets that I collected with Clarissa, birthday gifts from my classmates and friends (&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;I still have the huge, fat PIYO-PIYO from Wenxiu and the rest..&lt;/span&gt;), and the big hand-made heart-shaped cardboard with touching notes from my 2A clique which they gave to me when I went on to 3A1 while they went on to 3A2.. Oh gosh, those memories are just so, so overwhelming. Looking back, I never thought I had forged so many friendships, and gone through &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;so&lt;/span&gt; much during secondary and GB days. They are truly missed. I even found and looked through camp booklets that we've gone through; Sec1 training camp (&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;yes I still have it!&lt;/span&gt;), the intimidating yet fun regional camps, staff sergeant training camp.. Man, the memories just keep flooding. Its through all these experiences that I've really grown. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I even found this drawing by a girl named Hazel. I met her while on a trip to Perth and we were in the same tour group. She drew two girls, one of her and the other of me; and I was so surprised when I found it! I think I was only pri4 and she was pri2 that time?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gosh I didn't know just emptying my room could unravel so much. -.- And I found this lovely musical jewellery box with a spinning ballerina. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;love&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; musical boxes&lt;/span&gt;! (hint hint) Heh. They always give me this nice, whimsical feeling.. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And oh yeah, I cut my hair today. Not much to comment about, but at least my fringe's not poking my eyes anymore.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-115487689339588634?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/115487689339588634/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=115487689339588634&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/115487689339588634'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/115487689339588634'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2006/08/i-dont-quite-know-how-to-say-how-i.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-115435258900010866</id><published>2006-07-31T21:20:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-07-31T21:30:24.856+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;blockquote&gt;I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house&lt;br /&gt;That don't bother me&lt;br /&gt;I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out&lt;br /&gt;I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while&lt;br /&gt;Even though going on with you gone still upsets me&lt;br /&gt;There are days every now and again I pretend I'm ok&lt;br /&gt;But that's not what gets me&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What hurts the most&lt;br /&gt;Was being so close&lt;br /&gt;And having so much to say&lt;br /&gt;And watching you walk away&lt;br /&gt;And never knowing&lt;br /&gt;What could have been&lt;br /&gt;And not seeing that loving you&lt;br /&gt;Is what I was tryin' to do&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Rascal Flatts - What Hurts The Most&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tomorrow's violin exam. =S Oh man, I think I'm going to freak out right before the exam and my fingers will tremble and I'll play the notes too flat or too sharp and stop and fumble during the pieces and.. and... Oh wth. With all the prelim and A'level stress piled on me, I had to add this violin exam to the growing pile. -.- I hate taking music exams because after all that practice if you suddenly screw up (which is so freaking easy for violin), then all those time and effort spent is wasted.

I have to get my own pianist, and my pieces are still not smooth. I just wish to pass now, distinction is simply a bonus.

I must listen to them at least once a day. So, I really need to study at the library to avoid the many temptations at home (TV, bed, computer..).

Everyone should go catch it. I love this sequel and I can't wait for the next one! I've loved Depp since Sleepy Hollow (or perhaps Edward Scissorhands), and now I just love him &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;more&lt;/span&gt;. LOL. Captain Jack Sparrow. Ah, I'm &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;mesmerized&lt;/span&gt;. His eyes, gosh.

Oh gosh, I can watch it again anytime. It's arguably one of the best movies I've watched.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, I cried during yesterday's episode of Grey's Anatomy, haha. I know the episode didn't have much to cry about, but I just couldn't help it when euthanasia was used on the old lady. :( It's just not good to take away a life just like that. But I just love Grey's Anatomy, it makes me laugh and cry with the characters. Well I can emphatise, so that makes me a compassionate person right? Heh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright, off to bathe and watch some CSI. Man, theres only 15minutes of it left. -.- Damn bus 9, it takes super long to come and in the end I had to walk home from the MRT.

But it has disrupted my biological clock; I can't seem to sleep early at night unless I'm dead tired. And my afternoon naps are more frequent. Which is not good at all. Because when I sleep in the afternoon, I never wake up to my alarm. &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Rah&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, here's an interesting video of Zidane's headbutt:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="225" height="150"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/vhmN_cOnbmk"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/vhmN_cOnbmk" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="225" height="150"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Met up with Wendy and Lydia to eat steamboat at Marina!

Macs to chill before going home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4931/2349/1600/macs.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4931/2349/200/macs.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, off to watch Singapore Idol!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-115270580334013822?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/115270580334013822/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=115270580334013822&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/115270580334013822'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/115270580334013822'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2006/07/d-been-seeing-alot-of-my-eyecandy.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-115237080014900092</id><published>2006-07-08T22:39:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-07-08T23:00:00.176+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4931/2349/1600/DES1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4931/2349/200/DES1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Met up with Desflin, Siti, Ho Ying and Phyllis today! x) Siti is still as crazy as ever, if not even crazier. (So this is what MJ does to their students..) Oh gosh, I miss them all so, &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;so&lt;/span&gt; much! So glad we finally meet up. We went to Cine, ate at Galilee&amp;Friends cafe, took neos, and met up with Phil before watching Superman!

At one point in the movie, Siti actually screamed?! It was hilarious. And its not even a horror movie, its &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Superman &lt;/span&gt;for goodness sake. LOL. After that we went to coffee bean to slack and talk, and more crap from Siti, esp. with her &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Mimi&lt;/span&gt; game. And took a few group pictures before saying our teary goodbyes. Waiting for Phil to send the pictures, heh. Its sad that we can only meet up with Desflin again next year, when she comes back to Singapore during her holiday. :(  But I just love all of 'em!

Seats were great (thanks to Mrs Neo!), company was great, esplanade had amazing lighting, and the performances were pure entertaining! Kudos to all the performers! It was a totally different TPJC experience. But heard this panorama was really costly. 10,000 bucks just to book the esplanade? I think they made losses on this concert, but nevertheless it was a good one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After that went to have a drink with Clarissa, at &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Cheers&lt;/span&gt; of all places. LOL. But it was the company that mattered more. Had a heart-to-heart talk, which we haven't had in EONS! Really made me reflect and think alot; just had this nostalgia feeling after talking to her. JC life has really shown a lot of sides to people; I've realised how sheltered and protected we've been in PL. And in the years to come when we reach university and go out to work, I bet its going to be much worse than JC. Oh well, that's life. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Italy vs Germany 2-0! WOOOOT! Tonight: France vs Portugal.

It was so nice meeting up with all '04 batch people and the previous batches, everyone is so pretty now :) And it was fun singing the songs and echo-ing through Milennia Walk, we were really&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; loud&lt;/span&gt;. And it felt great singing for the &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Lord&lt;/span&gt;! I guess everyone's voices have changed after today's singing session. We even had to sing twice, once with instruments and the other acapella. Ms Jenny Koh said we sang like a train. LOL. Anyway the marathon's ending tomorrow 1pm, so if you still want to visit PL's 90-hr singing marathon you can drop by anytime by then, even 2am or 4am because they are still singing! lol. It was also nice seeing all my little juniors mature already! :) Fond, fond GB memories.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright, now I'm addicted to &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Don't Stop Me Now by Queen&lt;/span&gt;.

That's until I watched &lt;a href="http://www.qinobe.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Qinobe&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;! (I know they're out already, but I really hope they get in through the revival!) These videos changed my mind about Superband:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="225" height="150"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/vaCpCz9Lz00"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/vaCpCz9Lz00" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="225" height="150"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="225" height="150"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3BJ03fbNIGI"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3BJ03fbNIGI" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="225" height="150"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They never fail to surprise! ;) I think they're the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;best&lt;/span&gt; band there, and Juz B too. Pity both of them are out already. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got back Chem section C which really pulled me down. Disappointed in my Chem, got a D (1 mark to C!), but still I could've done much much better. But now's not the time to dwell on results, but to start studying.

Its so cool that my secondary school's having their 90th anniversary and they are holding a 90-hour singing marathon at Millenia Walk. Its already started today! And I think we're going to be in the Guiness book of records. :) So, we're going to sing the past 6 years' GB theme songs, which only lasts around 10 minutes, LOL. Hope everything goes well on Sunday!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And I'm excited for Germany vs Argentina tomorrow. RAH. I want Argentina to win, but I have a feeling Germany will. So tomorrow's going to be exciting. Anyway Brazil vs Ghana match was pretty intense although it was 3-0 in the end. Ghana played a great game. :) Nelson Dida's THE MAN! He's an amazing goalkeeper. Woot! Conceded so many of Ghana's goals. And his hair is cute too! Heh. As well as Kaka! :D I can't believe I'm going to be obsesed with the world cup soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Common tests are finally over, and now we're getting back results. Rah, I can't believe I got such an easy Bio MCQ wrong, but oh well the other sections are much, much worse. Got back Chem MCQ and section B, though it was fine (at least I passed), but I know I could've done much better. Section C's sure to pull me down though. Rah, I still can't believe I studied Mass Spec, Atomic structure and all the year 1 topics to find that only organic to Group II is required. ARGH! And I even missed GP and Maths CTs because of a damn fever, so I have to work doubly hard. Prelims in 2 months time, I gotto buck up! I don't want to regret after the Alevels. I want to be pleased and satisfied with whatever results I've got, knowing I've done my very best. :) So, Hot Chicks and s06 and whoever's taking the A's this year, we must JIAYOU alright! Don't regret in the end. :)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-115159410692462814?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/115159410692462814/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=115159410692462814&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/115159410692462814'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/115159410692462814'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2006/06/whoa-just-back-from-marathon-rehearsal.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-115133741366638964</id><published>2006-06-26T23:38:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-06-27T00:00:55.240+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4931/2349/1600/49669443410_0_ALB.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4931/2349/200/49669443410_0_ALB.1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm missing Khao Lak again. :( It all seemed like a dream, and I've just woken up from it.

And it's too short, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;far&lt;/span&gt; too short.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, last paper tomorrow! &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Persevere&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Wth, I don't know what I'm feeling now.

Sabaidee mai?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I MISS THAILAND ALR. :'( Although of course I have been missing my bed, my TV, my computer... But it's been an amazing and meaningful experience. I miss the kids so, so much. They are super adorable and cute! It's so heartwarming when they come up to hug you or hold your hand and kiss you on the cheek, or write 'I Love You' notes to you. RAH. The kids are just so lovely. :D It was so much fun piggybacking them and playing and singing with the kids. Seeing the smiles on their faces was good enough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However when we went to visit the tsunami sites and the morgue where they stored all the yet to be identified dead bodies in refrigerated containers, it just felt so &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;sad&lt;/span&gt;. That after so many years there are still so many bodies yet to be properly buried and identified by their relatives. Imagine the emotional pain the relatives have to go through.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We also did communal work like painting boats, varnishing chairs for the kids and did fishing traps.. It felt good doing something constructive for once. :P Got to know the interactors much better too... thank God for Vera my bus seat, eating, walking partner. :) And Samantha our dear room-mate lol. We also drank, played cards late into the night, had a night walk through the ghost town, chilled at the cafe near our hotel while watching soccer.. It was an interesting experience. And the beaches in Thailand are amazing. The sand is so soft, the sky seems joined with the never-ending Indian ocean, and the view of the clouds is fantastic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rah, words cannot describe this enough. Will upload pictures soon. But I'm so freaking tired now 'cause I've just came back from the airport. And Vera, please take care of yourself and get well soooooon! :) Really thank God for providing for us throughout the whole trip and that we're all home safe and sound!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's back to reality again. :( CTs!!!!

Got to know the shooting people so much better, esp. the J1s, and even some J2s. Although the games were quite messy, we still had loads of fun, with lots of &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;sadism&lt;/span&gt; though. This camp was plain crazy. Couldn't sleep at all at night. Were making too much noise playing card games like &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;bluff&lt;/span&gt;, and funny hand games. &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Ahoy! Ahoy! Ahoy!&lt;/span&gt; throughout the night. It was insane. Jun Ming and Tuck Min even stayed over in the girls' bunk although it wasn't allowed. -.- They are really good at entertaining themselves though. Heh. This camp had alot of ups and downs; but overall,&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;font&gt;it's been&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; great&lt;/span&gt;! x) It was nice staying over in the school, and lying down on the grandstand at night staring at the stars and moon; and simply talking the night through.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Exco interview was really interesting. Can't wait to pass down my duties man. =x Soon, all shooting will be over. Gosh. Honestly, I don't know what to feel. Anyway the new shooting tee rocks. Black and gold. I just &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;love&lt;/span&gt; these colours. And now, my back is aching badly from attempting to sleep on tables. And my ankle's slightly sprained from games the first day. &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Rah&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And Singaporeans sure know how to vote for their idol. Rahimah and Jasmine are really good singers. So glad they got in to final 12! Especially Rahimah. She just has this uniqueness about her that's really cool. I &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;love&lt;/span&gt; her hair!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright, now to prepare for Thailand OCIP trip. :D Flying off Sunday.

Its a must-see! I just can't stop thinking about the movie.. right Wendy? LOL. How the father sacrificed his life for the survivors, the horrible death of the guy; it really gets you thinking about life, how life is simply survival of the fittest, and how love is so unconditional and sacrificial. Couldn't help but cry when the father drowned while trying to reverse the suction of the propellers to save the others. Its just so freaking touching. Omg, the movie is worth more than the 6 bucks it cost us to watch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After that we went shopping so many places, far east.. bugis street and went to our favourite haunt - esplanade! Finally got my birks! And we got shades tgt too, heh. Been a long long long time since we met and hung out at these places. :) Just loved the chatting and catching up.. Its sad that now we can't meet up often anymore because of clashing schedules. Rah. Nvm, perhaps next Tuesday dinner study and supper with Lydia? Can't wait.

Of all days to fall sick, I had to be down with a high fever on the day of my GP and Maths CTs. I worked so hard for nothing. Sigh. I don't think they'll allow me to retake, just give me a big fat zero or exempted. I didn't ask to be sick, I even seldom get high fevers! :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was so shocked this morning when I measured my temperature at 39.1 deg. Was feeling damn giddy, couldn't sleep the previous night too. Couldn't get out of bed. Urghhh. Just thinking about missing the tests is making me pissed. At least now my temperature's down to 38.6. It keeps rising and falling and rising again. But I can at least get out of bed and blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ahhhh, I'm v sad now. But thank God for my mom.. taking care of me and all. She's the bestt. Everything happens for a reason, I wonder what reason has got to do with this? urgh.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23000314-114863806181549672?l=espera-.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/feeds/114863806181549672/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23000314&amp;postID=114863806181549672&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/114863806181549672'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23000314/posts/default/114863806181549672'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://espera-.blogspot.com/2006/05/today-has-got-to-be-one-of-worst-days.html' title=''/><author><name>espera-</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10297204944728328880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23000314.post-114848542396452053</id><published>2006-05-24T23:21:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-05-24T23:44:38.866+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Today was self-proclaimed study break! LOL. And tomorrow's the real one. Anyway, maths is slowly driving me insane. And I can't stop sneezing. I don't know why but I always fall sick at the wrong time: during holidays. Urgh! I guess its the accumulated dust at home. I just love staying at home though. I can play my organ, slack, watch TV, eat and eat and eat... amongst revising for Friday's CTs of course (ack!). But its seldom you can just rot at home right? Ah.. the simple pleasures of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Mas, Que Nada&lt;/span&gt;. Tough song to play. But I love how it takes my mind off other stuff (like Maths and GP -.-) while I try to figure out the chords and trying to pace with the speed of the backgrd music.. If you would like to hear the original song you can listen &lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.blogupload.com/58627/Mas_Que_Nada.m4a"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;s&gt;How I wish I could play it to you. =x&lt;/s&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright, just watching Da Chang Jing can make my blood &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;boil&lt;/span&gt;. How can some people be so freaking cruel?! Sometimes I can't bear to watch. But knowing the ending makes it a little more bearable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taylor was &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Taylorrific&lt;/span&gt; today! He's gonna be American Idol!

I absolutely dig the last performance from Destini and Jamile. You can watch it &lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.sytycd.com/video/jamile-destini-quickstep-090705.mov"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, though the screen's a little small.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will be skipping a grade to grade 6 for organ. :) The new songs seem really interesting; can't wait to master them. But now my fees are more expensive. Oh well. And I have a friggin pimple on my nose. I HATE PIMPLES. (ok, who doesn't) But still, on my nose of all places! Rah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The NUS business school advertisements are darn funny, they're so fake! What cute guys? =x Alright, today is Monday. Urgh.
