Sights and Sounds

Went to watch Just Follow Law with bf yesterday.
It was good!
A typical made-in-Singapore movie,
but much better than I Not Stupid all that.
Story plot is dull but roles played were good,
especially Fann Wong.
Quite a bit of tear-jerker at the end.
When Gurmit Singh and Fann Wong realise how important is family.
Then went with bf to the place near Esplanade where they put up decorations and stuf during CNY for people to see.
There was nothing much, really.
Every year is the same.
Took some photos.
Then we went to Lau Pa Sat for dinner.
Then we walked back to the bridge near Esplanade to sit.
Took some photos.
Whees. :D

My Old Workplace, My Favourite Workplace: TakPo

Last night my ex-colleage Xiao Hong called to ask how I was.
I was glad to hear from him but felt guilty cos after resigning,
I haven't took time to pay them a visit.
So I've decided to go Chinatown to see them this weekend.
And buy some cake to treat them and at the same time see if there were any more angbaos around.
Xiao Hong asked me,
"Wei she me mei lai kan wo men ah?
Ou er chuan yi ge jian xun lai jiu xing le ma?
Jin nian mei lai gen wo na hong bao ah?"
Then I told him,
"OK, wo ming tian jiu qu!"
He said,
"BU YAO BU YAO!
Ha ha, mei you la..."
I remember receiving a $2 ang bao from him last year.
I miss the people there.
I miss the fun and laughter.
They seem to be able to make eveything into a big joke.
And we'll just laugh laugh laugh.
Work was especially fun with Xiao Hong around..
He was my fake-high-five buddy.
We'd run towards each other in slow motion and slap each other high fives and pretend to miss.
Then feign shock.
Xiao Kang used to laugh at us from behind the congee counter,
when he was new.
Xiao Hong is full of crap.
That time when I was still working there,
his wife gave birth to a son.
Coincidentally, his surname is Luo.
So he named his son Luo Zhi Xiang.
I remember he showed me a photocopied copy of the birth cert.
I read the name and started laughing.
There were lots of good times during the 6 or 7 months working there.
I would continue working there if there wasn't so much work.
I'm lazy, yeah.
But the workload is heavy.
I miss them.
But I'll be there to see them this weekend.

Rob back in rehab... ='(

Rob is back in rehab... ='(

"Williams enters rehab on birthday

Williams has enjoyed a hugely successful solo career to date

Pop singer Robbie Williams has been admitted into a rehab clinic in the US on his 33rd birthday, to be treated for a dependency on prescription drugs.

It is not the first time the British star has entered rehab, having become addicted to drugs and alcohol after he left Take That in 1995.

He said later that his condition was so bad that Sir Elton John "kidnapped" him and made him seek treatment.

In September, his Asian tour was called off because of stress and exhaustion.

The Los Angeles-based performer was to have visited Shanghai, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Singapore, Mumbai (Bombay) and Bangalore in November.

A spokesman said at the time that to have performed in those cities after honouring European and South American commitments would have been "asking too much".

'Personal issues'

Speaking to BBC Radio Stoke - based in Williams' home town - his mother, Jan, said it was a "gift" for her that he was seeking treatment.

"He's a very public figure and all the media attention at the moment is added pressure on him," she said.

I shall be sending him loads and loads of love as always - I have always given him a lot of loving support Jan Williams, Robbie's mother

Mrs Williams plans to fly out to the US after her son has finished his spell in rehab.

"I shall be going across at some stage but when you're in rehab, it's a programme for the person themselves, and they have to address their own personal issues," she added.

Last year, the singer spoke frankly of his experience with depression in a BBC documentary on bipolar disorder with Stephen Fry.

In the interview, he admitted taking antidepressants and that his depression had made him "stop going out".

"I'd get up in front of 40,000 people and say 'look at me, I'm ace'", he said.

"Then as soon as I got off stage, I'd get in the tour coach and go back to my bedroom and pull the duvet over my eyes."

In another TV interview, broadcast in 2004, Williams said he only gave up drugs and alcohol because they made him too fat.

He said his addiction made him "blow up to the size of a small aircraft hangar".

Williams' former Take That bandmates are currently enjoying a hugely successful comeback, including a number one single and album, and a sell-out UK tour.

Their song Patience is expected to win best single at the Brit Awards ceremony, which takes place in London on Wednesday.

But this is the first time in several years that Williams has failed to be in the running for the best male or best album categories. "

--http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6356551.stm

In case you don't know, I'm a huge fan of Robbie Williams.
I've read 5 or 6 of his autobiographies and it's really sad to know his story and how he fought his inner battle with drugs and alcohol to see him bounce back again.
But life for him isn't easy.
I hope he gets well soon.

Anyway, a less depressing news here.
It's me and my baby's first anniversary today.
I love you, baby. (:

Something New, Something Great!

Check out that www.flickr.com photo badge at the bottom right hand corner of my page.
Cool! Ain't it?

GONG XI FA CAI!

It's Chinese New Year Eve today.
We did some cleaning up and stuff.
My ma brought the dog to our house.
She refused to pose for the camera.
We had our tuan yuan fan, roasted duck and steamboat with lots of abalone.
I ate two pieces straight out of the can and it tasted disgusting.
GONG XI FA CAI!

Bugger

I went to school this morning just to find out that there's no lesson today.
Fuck.

My ma bought this pot of flowers at $4.
I say, I've never seen anyone else bargain the way she does.
It's pretty nice too.

Yesterday I got a huge shock.
It's always when I don't expect anything and don't anticipate,
that I get a surprise.
I was walking towards our meeting place but couldn't see him anywhere,
and when I spotted him,
he was holding a little bouquet!
Although there're only 3 roses and little flowers and stuff,
I loved it.
It's the sincerity and thought that counts.
He used his lunchtime to go out and buy the flowers,
and only had lunch at 3 plus.
And he drew me a card which I think is far nicer than what I drew him.
It even has a photo of him looking pretty in it.
I took the flowers happily,
and when we walked past a woman holding a huge bouquet,
I didn't envy her at all!
I think maybe an aunite envied me,
or was it me looking weird and standing at a weird location?
I was waiting outside the toilet for him to finish pooping,
holding flowers with one hand and pressing my handphone frantically with my other hand,
trying to not look out of place,
which I did.
This morning I checked the flowers,
they haven't dried up yet!
Am so happy. (:

Just watched Borat.
It's fucking crap.

Am staying home today.
No lessons for today and tomorrow.
And it's Valentine's Day today!
Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!
I love you, you love me, I love him, she loves me, he loves her, she loves her, we love you, you love us, GOD LOVES ME!
Not anticipating any surprises today.
I already prepared myself for that.

I drew the bf a card in less then 2 hours.
We're going through this craze of drawing cards for each other, no matter the occasion.

It's gonna be Chinese New Year soon.
I've got a one week break next week.
So am going to use that time to complete the PS2 game,
in case I don't ever get around to finishing it...
Don't think I'm going for the bai nian thing at all...
Just going to stay home.
What for?
After the flood and the damage it caused,
it doesn't feel like CNY at all.
This is the saddest CNY ever.
Going to see my not-very-close relatives would be just plain weird.
Don't think I'll even recognise them if I happen to see them in the streets.
That's how bad it is.
I don't know them at all.
My parents aren't close with them, too.

I actually hate CNY.
I don't get a lot of angbaos.
I hate CNY songs.
I'm like the Grinch.
He hates Christmas whereas I hate CNY.
But at the end he ends up loving Christmas.
But I don't see myself ever loving CNY.
I only like the bright decorations at home.
But one of them fell down.
My ma stuck it up again.
It fell down again.
Now it's lying somewhere, forgotten.

I love Eason Chen.
Bu Zhi Bu Jian made me cry.
I was thinking of some things at that time.

Yesterday was at Esplanade library with boyfriend.
Cuddling together and watching animation was nice.
Nice...
Hehe.
Then we saw Sam Leong outside the Esplanade near the bus stop.
Then he popped into a cab.
From what we gathered,
he had called a taxi and was waiting for the taxi.
He was looking nice.
Nice...
Hehe.
I have a thing for chefs. =/

Bf drew this birthday card for me.
Although it's a bit late and not fantastic,
nevertheless I still love it. (:

I love the Esplanade Library.
And I love my boyfriend. (:

New skin here.
I swore not to change skins no more but I just could not help it.
Am feeling bored.
BF's gone to a wedding dinner.
Let's see.
Feb 14 is around the corner!
It's great, huh?
Love..
I don't remember what I was doing last year on 14 Feb.
Probably snoring away while everyone went on dates.

My eye's better now.
Although still a little itchy.
I skipped school for two days because of this.

It's my baby's 30th birthday today.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BABY! (:

Today I had a fucking sore eyelid.
It wasn't the eye that was painful or sore, so eyemo or whatever wasn't going to help.
Felt as if the eyelid was going to clamp shut anytime.
And it didn't help matters with my sleepiness and with my class ending at 4pm.
So I had some fun with my N70.
I'm normally not very vain but I just took some crap photos anyway.
It's the bf's 30th birthday this Thursday.
I'm drawing a birthday card for him.
Much better than popping down to Popular or Hallmark to buy a birthday card.
It's turn out quite well, I think.
My sis drew one for him too.
When my sis bothers to do something like this for someone,
it means that the person is worthy enough for her time.
It means quite a lot.
She didn't even draw one for me lah.
Bugger.

I took these pics in Malaysia.

On Thursday I told my ma and sis that I've asked the bf to come over to our house to help my fix the computer.
So today he went over.
My dear ma was excited, I tell you.
Me and my sis went to Toa Payoh central to buy her a bag,
then we went to the MRT station to wait for him.
Then we went to NTUC to buy a lot of oranges for my ma.
Haha.
I was kind of glad my ma was able to meet him at long last.
Ever since I broke the news to her,
she has been talking about him,
and she had not even met him yet!
So now they've met each other.
And my sis too.
But not my pa.
Cos the three of us are keeping our mouth shut about this.
My ma made him eat the laksa she cooked.
Now I don't have to worry about them not getting along well.
As long he's nice and honest and polite,
my ma will love him.
My ma hasn't got high expectations.
Now I'm at the library with him.
I'm typing away while he's reading a book on fertility.
I think the best place for dating (without snogging and touchy-feely) is the library.
Just have to grab a book and snuggle up beside each other and just enjoy the quiet time together.
You don't even have to talk to each other.
Ooooh.
I just like to look over at him and think about how much I love him.
*Stretches both arms as far as possible apart*
This much!
I love you, baby.

I'm here to take the piss out of some people.
Or maybe I'm the one who is pissed.
They are those who talk and talk non-stop throughout the whole lesson,
yet ignoring the fact that they are loud.
People pay good money to attend these lessons to get their diplomas,
especially the foreigners, they are the ones who almost always pay attention.
Talk about inconsiderate.
Talk talk talk talk talk.
Yak yak yak yak yak yak.
Chat chat chat chat chat.
Talk what fuck?
Got so many things to talk about meh?
Then the lecturer of course will get irritated.
At the end of the lesson he talked to us about this.
He was already kind enough not to mention names.
But the whole class know who are the culprits.
Then afterwards while people were leaving,
the lecturer went up to that group of shits and talked about this.
This girl skin damn thick.
Obviously it was their fault, yet she still talk back.
She was the one who was the loudest,
with a mouth that size.
Seriously, SHE HAS A BIG MOUTH.
Confirm she is older than me.
But still so childish for what?
The two guys behind the girls already accepted that they were wrong and apologized,
but then the girl die also don't want to give in.
Narbei.
People want to listen to lesson one leh.
DOWAN TO PAY ATTENTION THEN FUCK OFF HOME!!!!!!!!!

I've been cyber-inactive for quite some time now.
Now everybody knows what a lousy computer I have.
It managed to go and get itself some bug that reboots whenever I connect to the Internet.
So I'm now going to start blogging as always,
just that I save my posts in the computer,
and when my computer is fixed,
I'll upload everything.

Yesterday was my 18th birthday.
I wasn't looking forward to it as much as, say, 1 or 2 years ago.
The... excitement just isn't there anymore.
Maybe its part and parcel of growing up.

Received quite a lot of well wishes.
Thanks very much.
In the morning I just slacked away.
There were no lessons yesterday.
Special privilege.
Nah, kidding.
Just no lessons.
Bf took the day off too, cos he was sick.
Met the girls at night.
Had Sockhoon and Fiona wait for almost half an hour for me.
They bluffed that they were going to bring me to Night Safari (I didn't believe them),
but they quickly alighted the bus when I wasn't looking.
They just love to do that to me.
Imagine at the crucial time I didn't turn my head and see them running off...
I would still be in the bus while they laughed their socks off.

They took me to this nice restaurant.
But it's situated in the HDB area.
Wonder how they make profit.
Before going in they showed me a video PY and Huiling took.
It was a video of our Peirce teachers, Mrs Han, Ms Tan and Mrs Yau singing a birthday song
for me.
It was a nice surprise.
Ok, it was an okay surprise, because teachers aren't my favourite people in the world.
Right.
Then we went in,
ordered food and they showed me my first present.
IT WAS A DRESS!
I was like, "Great! A dress!"
But secretly I was thinking how I would look in it.
So I had this blank face on for a moment while dozens of horrible images flashed through
my mind.
They made me wear it.
So I wore it and they took pictures and I did that pose which I didn't think I would
possibly do.
So the food came and we ate and chatted.
And they played pool, there was a pool table.
Around 11pm they took out the cake.
And they showed me another video.
This time it was the Peircean choir singing a birthday song for me!
Now, this was the nicer surprise.
I had 4 years of choir practice.
There were ups and downs.
But after seeing the video, I realise how much I miss doing the choir warm ups.
It almost made me cry.
Almost.
But their faces were all bored and not one bit happy at all.
That put me off a little.
But I guess that's because more than half of the choir dunno who the hell they were singing
the song for.
Then they gave me the second present.
The leather bag!
It's great, thank you.
I reached home at around 12 and that was the end of my 18th birthday.
I couldn't fall asleep immediately.
I layed in my bed smiling for around an hour or so.
This was the best birthday I've ever had.
Thanks, everyone! (:

So I finally fixed my computer.
Weehees.
School starts tomorrow.
Not in the mood to write a long blog.
Maybe next time.

So I went for my dreaded check up.
Turns out nothing's wrong with me and it's just something like "hormonal imbalance".
Been scaring myself shitless for the past year.
I think you know what I'm talking about here.
Will be returning on Monday night.
Taking the 5.30pm bus back.
Missed both Christmas and going to miss the new year too, not being able to be in Singapore both times.
Listening to Michael Buble's album "Totally Buble" now.
Finally bought my CDs "The Black Parade" and this Michael Buble album.
Stomach's bloated now.
We packed ourselves into the car and went shopping and bought supper.
Actually it's not so bad here but at times it's dead boring.
Brought bf's Eragon book here to read and I've almost completed it.
Somewhere around the 800th page now haha.
Happy New Year in advance, everyone!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
It's the 3rd day of my stay in Malaysia.
Glad I'm able to blog cos I haven't been blogging, or maybe it's just
plain laziness.
We've been busy the whole day preparing for my sis' birthday celebration
tonight.
We made sushi and my ma cooked a whole lot of food and we've ordered
satay and bought an ice cream cake.
But the cake sort of melted and only half the cake is pretty.
I took many many photos but I'll upload them when I return.
The sole purpose of coming here for me is to see a specialist,
cos I've got something wrong with me.
And this may be the last time I'm coming here with my family,
cos after completing my Advanced Diploma,
I'll be working.
Yeap.
More when I get back!

I'll be going to Malaysia this weekend.
Don't contact me.

Yesterday went to watch Eragon with boyfriend.
It wasn't what we had expected.
One thing, lots of things were left out.
Some parts of the story were different too.
The book's much better, but the book's not as good as Harry Potter and the story's not as
good as Lord of the Rings.
But who am I to judge?
The boy was only 15 when he wrote it.

Anyway, I'm just back from school after my exam.
I'm bound to score either A or B this time.
Haha.

The previous post was just a brief one,
so here are the details:

Actually we were to meet at 8:15am but somehow the two pigs, Liu (Peiying) and Tong (Huiling), couldn't get up.
So drag drag drag until 9:30am, but they were still late.
I woke up at a ghastly hour of 7:15am.
Me and Tong went to see if there were any paint shops at the prime market but couldn't find one,
while Liu and Teo (Benjamin) went around the paint shop they were in to look for suitable colours.
Then we went to Lim's (Fiona) house and waited for the arrival of Liu and Teo.
Then they arrived and we thought of what to do with Lim's room.
Our plan was to do something with Lim's messy room.
Mrs. Lim was nice to order pizza for us.
Then we shifted Lim's furniture around,
the plan was to create a space in her room where she can sit down and study.
We shifted the bigger wardrobe to the computer room (previously the maid's room).
We thought for very long for what to do with her wall.
Then we decided on the colours and me and Tong went to somewhere near her house to buy paint and a
light bulb and a cushion and brushes.
We bought a litre of blue and grey and a light bulb (the wrong size, thanks to me),
glow-in-the-dark stars and a cushion for Lim to place her butt on.
Then we went back to Lim's house to start on our masterpiece.
We painted her room here and there and Teo climbed the ladder to stick the stars (attached to thread) to
the ceiling around the lamp.
Teo packed Lim's things, and chucked all Lim's secondary school books into a box.
Liu and Tong and I did the rest.
Due to time constraint, we decided to copy Mark Lee's design in Home Decor 2,
the episode on Monday which Mark Lee designed the design on the wall which was a picture of a
staircase from the floor to the ceiling and there were two legs on the topmost two steps so overall the design
made it feel like the room was bigger and gave this illusion that there was a staircase in the room and
someone was walking upstairs. *Takes a breath*
It was my idea, although it was unoriginal.
So we did this and that, that and this,
then we realised that it was getting late.
So we had to rush like ants.
Lim was out with her friends, and we contacted her friend Esther, to ask her to drag time.
But Esther's "gahmen" refrained her from staying out too late,
so we called Tan (Sockhoon) to play along.
Our plan was to make Lim believe that we were going to watch a movie but actually the three of us were
busy like ants.
So Tan went to meet Lim to push the time further.
But somehow Tan got angry also, but I dunno why.
It was around 12 midnight when Lim returned home.
Before they came home,
Teo decided that we should buy a cake.
But since it was already 11pm, no bakery would be opened at this hour,
so Teo had an idea (but an unoriginal one), to go to Cheers to buy one of their plain chocolate cakes,
they also bought a packet of M&Ms to decorate the cake.
Lim believed that we baked the cake.
Haha she still doesn't know.
Luckily Lim liked the surprise when she saw the room.
After eating the cake, Teo, Lim and I played a game of Monopoly for 3 hours.
It was 3+am when the game ended.
I stayed at Lim's house for the night.
I went to sleep at 4+am.

Reflections:
1) POOR TIME MANAGEMENT.
2) MY BLOOD PRESSURE CAN RISE QUITE RAPIDLY.
3) I CAN PAINT. (:

Me, Huiling, PY and Benjamin went to Fiona's house to revonate her room.

We packed her things and shifted things around for more than 12 hours but now I'm still not asleep but am in Fiona's room.

This is what we did:

Can you see Mark Lee's legs>>

He's going upstairs

Yesterday went to shop for Fiona's birthday present with Huiling and Peiying and Benjamin was there too.
Today is FIONA LIM's birthday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY FIONA LIM!

Someone came to tag my blog saying I'm racist.
I agree I'm racist sometimes lah.
But then I really don't care what you say about Chinese people.
Whatever I wrote about the racist thing wasn't necessarily a bad thing either.
Roti prata is a bad thing meh?
I'm a roti prata devotee okay.
I'm sorry lah!
I guess I rubbed you the wrong way,
or maybe you're just too sensitive.
I didn't look at it as racism,
there was a little humour in it.

Oh well.
Today was the last day of school.
Next week is study week.
The next week is exam week.
Then I'm off!
To Malaysia!
Truly Asia!

Yippee.
Managed to score 17/20 for that Business Statistics test when I thought I was going to score around maybe 10-12.
And so I passed my last term's exams too.
Hah, I have nothing to worry.
In class today, being the kaypoh bunch of people that we are,
we noticed something was wrong.
The BMW-guy and his girlfriend weren't sitting side by side!
That means something must have happened between them huh.
And maybe even something drastic,
cos the girl went to rebond her hair and had make-up on today.
The girls in class must be getting ready to swoop down on the BMW-guy like vultures eyeing their prey.
Phwah.
Wonder what happened between them hor?
I'm practically itching from the curiosity.
I told my ma I have a classmate who drives a BMW,
she said, "Wah, why you never hurry up and take?"
I was like, "Huh? I have my man already!"
My dear ma sometimes cannot think straight when it comes to money.

So I finished reading the Jason Hahn book,
and now I'm moved on to Eragon by Christopher Paolini.
The author was only 15 when he started writing this book.
Talented guy lah he.
I think it's not bad, from what I've read.
The movie's going to hit the screens come 14 Dec.
A movie review that I've read says the movie's a cross between Harry Potter and Lord Of The Rings.
Dragons and magic and strange names of strange lands are involved.
This book is good, so the movie must be great!

Went to watch the Andy Lau movie, Battle of the Wits, or Mo Gong.
Think it was not bad,
I liked the role that Andy Lau played,
the smart and good guy.
Bf thought it wasn't very nice.

The book I'm reading now is Asking For Trouble: Tales of Saffy & Amanda by Jason Hahn.
He's a local writer, someone like Neil Humphreys who's also equally funny.

So I'm going to be heading over to Malaysia first thing after my exams.
We can afford to spend exactly 10 days there,
then we have to fly back here cos school is going to start soon for my sis.
What a time for me to end my course at that time right.
Should end earlier for my yearly well-deserved vacation.
Was feeling a little apprehensive.
Part of me missed my family there and the tons and tons of pirated CDs,
the other part of me thought it was a pity I wasn't going to spend my first Christmas with him.
Then again, what's Christmas to me?
It's just another public holiday.
I guess it affects me the way people think.
I used to think it was a time couples and family get together to celebrate their love.
But there's Valentine's Day too.
I WILL NOT miss that.
Whatever.
Got to go take a shit and then mop the floor and then rush over to meet him.
Blah.

I've been thinking so much.
Baby, I hate myself for having said those words.
I'm sorry.

Skipped school.
Went for a haircut.
Haircut didn't make much difference.
Ugh.

I cried in the bus last night.
I was fully aware of people watching me.
But I couldn't help it,
I was miserable.
Why does love have to be so hard.

The Business Statistics test was easy.
I can't believe I went through all those endless hours of studying,
just to flip open the question booklet to see a page of easy questions.
And along with all the formulas!
MDIS is SO predictable.

I'm having the most horrid day.
I'm having a horrible flu.
Imagine having to study your most hated subject (Math) with mucus dribbling nonchalantly from your
nostrils.
I actually wanted to fetch a pail to let the mucus drip into the pail.
Once full, I shall chuck the dreadful contents out of the window and onto the head of an unsuspecting
victim.
Ugh, I'm feeling wonderfully crabby.
I'm Crabby Abbie. (:

Last night he met with his ex to talk things out.
But now everything's resolved, and I'm a happy woman.
The last few months was horrible for me,
I kept having this feeling that I was going to lose him anytime.
The two weeks while he was away in Australia was okay,
but I wanted him back badly.
The day he came back and when I met him,
I felt that I loved him more,
because absence makes the heart fonder.
It certainly does.
And after so many things that happened,
he's now more precious to me than ever. (:

Today's lesson was boring.
Math math math everyday math math math.
Whatever the lecturer teaches, I dunno how to do.
Ugh.
I'm having a test next Wednesday.
Gotta buck up.
I'm going to study until I drop.

So today went to eat Sakura with classmates, Kitson, Vincent and Min Er.
Eat until 2.30pm like that then we went shopping cos Vincent wanted to shop for clothes to attend
a wedding.
He's like, super skinny.
He can wear a pair of size 28 jeans!
And his shirts are all S size.
He jokingly said he has a girl figure except he don't have breasts.
Totally shagged now.
Shouldn't have worn me Chuck Taylors without socks.
Walk for so many hours now my pinky toes have abrasions.
Ouch.
Flip flops are the best.

I like this video.
Go read the comments for this video at YouTube.
They're mostly female fans gushing about cute Brendon.
Hohoho.

Met boyfriend last night to watch Casino Royale.
He bought me lots of munchies, chocs and candies.
Thanks baby, my teeth are going to fall off.
I'm now sucking on a candy stick.
The type of candy stick shaped like a walking stick you see during christmas,
but mine's without the curved thing.
And his face is so burnt and brown.
Poor baby.
Casino Royale was ok.
Daniel Craig is hot.

The boyfriend is back!
He smsed me this morning after he got home, around 7:45.
Yay so happy he's back.
Going to meet him later.

Today's lesson was ok.
We had to do a presentation.
It was ok.

Blah! I'm bored.
In the midst of a great book.
It's a great book about jealousy, marital affairs, love and sex.
Not the kind that I usually read.
Haha.

You all know the IPod was made to only put in tracks,
but they're not known to be able to export songs right?
I just recently downloaded a software from www.download.com which can help us to copy songs
from the IPod into the computer.
The software is called IPod Access, and it's really useful.
Partly because my computer went haywire a few months ago and I had no choice but to format it
and all my songs were gone.
I have like, a few GB worth of songs in my computer.
400+ songs are in my IPod, so I managed to get them out.
That website is really good.
There are some tips and tricks to help you in everything electronically.
I read about some tips that I can purchase an IPod battery and replace it myself,
because sending it for servicing may cost up to $160 or more.
But the problem is I haven't heard of anywhere that sells IPod batteries
except for websites.
But that's as useless to me as a scarecrow.
I don't have a credit card.

My pair of Chuck Taylors have been sitting in front of the living room since Monday.
I haven't picked it up.
No one's bothered to pick it up for me.
Only my ma has the initiative to ask me to pick it up.
I'll just leave them there.

I'm bored!
I was taking a short nap just now when Tong Huiling called me.
She always calls me at the wrong time.
So tomorrow I'm going to meet her.

My neighbour bought the lastest version of N70.
It's not the old version.
This version can support memory cards of bigger space.
My old version I think can only use memory card of up to 512MB.
Cos I'm using that.
The newer version is black.
And I think it's stupid cos the difference between the old one and the new one is the memory card thing.
Whereas everything else is the same.
Might as well buy a phone with a better camera like N73 or N93 right?

I'm concentrating on blogging crap because if I have nothing to blog about,
I'll blog about the gahmen.
And I won't be nice about it.
Yesterday I heard something in the news saying something about dunno the price of what rised.
FUCK.

Saturdays are boring without him around.
I used to meet him every Saturday.
But nevermind!
He'll be back soon.
Probably Tuesday or Wednesday.
If I remember correctly he told me he'll be boarding the plane back to Singapore either tomorrow or Monday.
And the flight is around 10 hours...
Blah!
I'm so bored.
In case you haven't noticed,
I've got a new blogskin.
This is something I really like,
cos the words are clear and the navigations are good.
And the dark background.
And I can put in photos myself!
I just anyhow do and the photo appeared there.
Hehe.
I'll be able to change the picture as and when I like.
Later I'll probably be home studying or lazing around or do some reading.
Then tomorrow meeting Dr. Tong Huiling.
Blah!
Still so bored.

I Love Italian Men

I came across the blog of an Italian man.
The first things I saw were pictures of a gorgeous man.
I've seen many blogs of homosexuals blogging photos of themselves and other men.
But please, they are not those girlie and super gay types but those with six-packs and muscles and are incredibly good-looking.
Those pictures are art.
They are beautiful men, seriously.

Remember the TV repairman?
Turns out he can repair refrigerators too.
My fridge spoil.
He just fixed it.
HE'S OUR HERO!

Gerrard Way looks funny in his new hair colour.
My Chemical Romance.
Confirm must buy.
My classmate once asked how can I stand to listen to this kind of music when he blasted a song
by MCR from Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge on my handphone, and another one from Nirvana.
But all songs that he sings and listens to are cantonese songs, so I can't blame him.
PHWAH!
Blogger now got spell-check.
Hmmm, a lot of words I write are wrong leh.

Just to share with you all my all-time favourite joke,
since I'm studying Business Management and all.

You see a pretty girl and you say to her, "Hi, I'm very rich. Marry me!"
That's direct marketing.
You see a pretty girl and get her number.
The next day you call her and say, "I'm very rich. Marry me."
That's telemarketing.
You see a pretty girl.
She walks up to you and says, "You're very rich."
That's brand recognition.
You see a pretty girl and say to her, "I'm rich. Marry me."
She slaps your face.
That's customer feedback.

It's not that I want to talk bad about the gahmen.
But the gahmen always like to make people talk bad about it.
This fucking raising the GST to 7% thing is outrageous.
Why do they want to take our money again and again?
Is it because that time they gave us the bonus shit before the election?
Then they raise taxi fare, then raise MRT and bus fare,
now they want to raise GST?
What next?
Raise school fees?
I tell you, one day there will be a big strike against the gahmen.
Obviously it's the gahmen who want to take money from its people,
but they say until so nice,
what stupid excuse, 'to help the needy'?
Why must the gahmen make it's people dulan the gahmen?

Today's lesson was held at the computer lab.
Some may find the lesson of no use, cos few people turned up,
but I found it rather useful.
That's because I dunno how to use Microsoft fucking Excel.
Okay I may be dumb in certain ways.

Having them come here to visit us was fun.
But no matter where it is, being with them makes me feel happy.
I guess we're far apart from each other, that's why.
Some of your relatives live close to you and you see them all the time,
you'll gradually grow to feel as if it's no big deal.
But for me, only seeing them twice a year is not enough.
I miss my grandma.
She's getting old and I fear that one day she'll forget me.
Every year around this time, I'd start dreaming of Malaysia.
Then I'll get this terrible urge of wanting to go.
Yesterday when they left, I really wanted to go with them.
When I was young I used to cry whenever they leave.
And when I go to Malaysia, I enjoy the change of environment.
The dusty roads, the scorching sun, the freedom of appreciating each passing day..
It's always the midst of holidays whenever I go,
so I consider it an annual vacation.
Well, no worries, I'm going soon!

I just discovered my love for jazz music.
Jazz is so... romantic and dramatic and nice.
And jazz singers' voices are very good too.
Michael Buble, Frank Sinatra, Diana Krall...
Phwah!
