Right. It's past midnight, & i'm still here. Just done summarising 4 readings for SGP project.
Yet, i cant seem to find a way to really organize my thoughts into a more orderly manner.
It's jumping from one end to another.
It's contradicting the one before.
It's all confused. No coherent.
I have no brain scanning techniques available here, but in paper form, that's pretty much how my thoughts will look like now.
a mess...

Here i am, waiting for online conference to commerce. I know these things are so overdued! Maybe it's just in my nature to procrastinate...so very very lazy...hahaa!
22nd September '07 - Saturday
Family dinner at Earle Swensens (VivoCity) last weekend! Milo's hooked to donuts! He just cant get enough of them! There's this other donut store at Vivo too - DippinDonuts. Plus point, the queue's not as long as at DonutFactory.
Personally, feel that it's not as nice as DonutFactory, but..okay it's just not as good. more flavours available at DonutFactory, like apple & cinnamon, chocolate raspberry... & now, Milo's bugging me to buy donuts for him back from DonutFactory! gah.

& a few months back he told me, "i dont like donuts.."
I dont know him anymore.
Had dinner at Earle Swensens. Prefer the original Swensens better! The menu's different & there's fondue! But i'm the only choco lover in the fam! (perhaps plus Milo) & we're too full anyway hahaa! It's damn expensive! & uber gi-normous portions! Bill added up to about near 100$! But the ambience was pretty good.

♥♥♥
24th September '07 - Monday

Out with my pretties! Hearts! First stop, CityHall! :) was late cos actually doubled back to change to smthg else - dress was too short.
gah.
We They are hardworking girls! Went to National Library to look up for extra info/notes for their term papers!
The National Library's strict. Lots of rules & regulations. No this, no that blah blah blah. They do have rather interesting psychology books there though. But their photocopy fees are like 8cents per page (compared to NUS library, 3cents per page) Jason was so right about this! I've learned this lesson first hand!
This is a pretty view taken from the elevator! So hearts taking the lift up to 14th floor & down again! Oofah! Andrenaline rush! i likeee!!! AGAIN!!!

Head off to Bugis Street for some shopping. Bought a new short skirt! But didnt managed to get my flipflops nor shoes.
Still need to get my contact lens..so running low of it & I look damn toot/nerd with my specs on can! gah.
3rd stop, IKEA! nicee stuff there!! :) lovee going there for their ice-cream & hot-dog! recall going all the way down to IKEA after school just for the food. back in jj then.

See the pretty potted flowers/plants??
4th grid=my fav flower! Gerbera! didnt know they came in pots too!
VS bouqet of flowers, these are so much more practical. & they wont die.
It pains me to see flowers wither. & they're with roots.
Took the bus to Jurong East. Bus journey was a hearty affair! cam-whoring sessions!
hearts the foto of Estee & me! Super candid i likeee!! Exchanging romantic zo-cards every outing/meeting has become some sort of our dime! sweet!
Dinner at IMM Bagus! So love their baked rice! ;d & a pic is of an early moon in the evening sky! Lovely! 

We waited really long for the shuttle bus to IMM. Better off walking there.
[spots the shuttle bus at the opposite road]
[bus went out of sight]
"Where's that lousy bus going?? Isnt it going to U-turn?? Why is it not U-turning??"
"Stupid bus...let's just walk..."
♥♥♥
25th September 'o7 - Tuesday 

That's the inside of Jason's really awesome vintage car! So damn cool! It's a vintage car, & the inards are totally different from those usual, everyday-seen, cliche cars. You wont believe how fast this little thing can go! He's changing to a new "wife" on Oct 18! It was damn hilarious the way he fussed over this current vintage car when he spotted a mark/scratch on the side door.
He drives damn fast. Either that, or i'm too used to 30-40km/hr cos instructor's limiting my speed, since i've shown tendency to speed.
& i almost died! b/c we almost crashed into the car in front. Lol! He got quite agitated while we were discussing about Uni first yr...
"it's really good that u're studying now..it's a good start!"
"some of my friends dont really seem to understand why i'm mugging so much though...like they said stuff like first year can slack...no need to mug so hard..."
"What kinda friends are they???!! seriously these are 损友 i tell u..they'll eat their own deserts at the end of it when they see their lousy cap score!" [getting agitated]
"just feel quite disappointed in a way i guess...like they are my friends & just hope they'll understand that it's very important for me to study very hard!"
[still agitated] "I hate this kinda ppl!" [vulgars + rantings]
[almost crash into the car in front. heavy brake]
"no need to feel scare...there's brake hahaa"
Right, i cant really re-call what he said, but something along that. & despite his furious driving, it's actually quite thrilling in a way that it's exciting. i've always love speeding, but not where there're so many vehicles & predestrians around.
Anyway, we met up at National Library first, but it was lousy, thus we seek refudge back to Central Library in school. The library's less crowded during the holidays & weekends (according to him) & at night too.
The day was supposed to be the Mid-Autumn Festival. Saw kids running around with sparklers & lanterns at the playground. Pretty sight! hearts traditional lantern!
♥♥♥
26th September 'o7 - Wednesday
Woke up bright & early! Yoga, breakfast, library.
mug mug mug
BoonTat joined the mugging session in the afternoon. Unlike him, i'll never ever wake up early to jog/swim.
To mug, definitely.
To meet my dear + lovelies + pretties, needless to say.
To queue for JayChow's concert ticket, i'll queue throughout the night! hahahaa!
& this relates to the positive reinforcement learned in psychology.
A big part of the day was spent on SGP society project - summarising the readings for Jason so that he wont need to digest so much stuff. I know my progress's really slow. I'm really trying to make it up.
So miss the days spent in jj, frequenting JE library, spending long hours chilling in the library, looking up funny funny stuffs in the books... the neoprint shop, the arcade...
& you know those machines whereby you slot in 1$ or 2$, & a toy comes out?
[he sneaked up on me from behind]"what're u doing?"
[jumped]"dont do that!"
"lol..which one you like?"
"doesnt matter la..."
"so big le still play with toys?? hahaa how much more you need?
"i only have 1$...this is 2$.. never mind, let's go.."
"wait...i got 1$.."[slots coin into machine]
[stares]
"you owe me 1$"
"Lol okay..."[slots in another dollar]
[toy comes out]
"is this the one you want?"
"yeaa..thanks!"
"welcomes..it's not everyday you'll have 1$ coins for this kinda machine..."
"fate?"
"can put it that way..."
"if it's in your hands...but it wont mean as much then..."
There's nothing much to say between us. Just understand with the heart.
& this incident at the library never fails to bring laughter. Remember how the small kid's friend mistook xx as his father? I'll never forget the look xx gave, that frightened the kids away. We sure got a hell loads of scolding from the mother after that.
Right. I'm wasting time here reminiscencing about the past. It seems so long ago...doesnt it?
6 months?
...i've lost count.

In a week's time, mid-term exams just around the corner. A great advice, never take Psychology + Economics + SouthAsian + SingaporeSociety + English. Interesting enough by themselves, but nonetheless, a killer. Out of this 5 modules, exams for 4, projects for 4, & mid-term paper for 3.
Will be back after my exams! Mugging commences.

Happy occasions call for a spoonful of sunshine - flower of happiness!
Today's 'Friday meet-up lunch session' is extra special with rainbow sprinklers all over it!! LeAnn came by to meet up with us! yea yea! we i came up with a naughty idea to smuggle her into the Central Library
For once, i walked through the corridors with them by my side, laughing our heads off in a non-uni like manner, just like the good 'old days back in jj. Good times :)
So heart such chilling session with the girls! though we just talked nonsense & joked around. I felt included. Not saying that i wasnt included before, cos i was in jj. But today i actually felt a spark of my real self shine through as i was updated on the latest news of the girls & just simply hanging out with them. It was like being transported back in time to the familiar setting of jj canteen.
But for a brief moment amidst my happiness and wide grin, as i faced the girls talking
i was reminded of the fun times i had once with my old clique and all that happy & unhappy stuffs that happened back in jj.
It all seems so long ago now. All those fights & disagreements seemed so childish & minor now. But we still fell apart.
From time to time, i weigh the pros and cons of mixing with the new classmates or distancing myself
and i admit that its always better to have support.
otherwise, it'll just be like me against the big bad NUS life. all on my lonesome.
Establishing new ties via project work - with June, XinHui, Pam, Jason & Eleanor. They're nice. XinHui reminds me of WaiYing. & we do share something in common. Jason's a senior, & he's really nice, showing me around campus, advices etc.
But i'm afraid of the negative externalities that comes along with friendship.
so afraid this year will come to nought. afraid to trust too much.
What i have now, are more than enough. Contented. I miss you girls already! I need to step out of jj's shadow. It's high school now, not junior college. I guess it's natural to miss it afterall it's the best time of my life.

At long last! After much frustration at this lousy connection, finally managed to log on to the net! Currently in school, 7 hours of break, 1 & 1/2 of it gone, while attempting to revive the network.
A promised, here it is.

Starting with happy stuff, met up with my lovelies again the other day. Yesterday. Bought donuts from DonutFactory since i was there, & it was still early, & the queue wasnt long. Zaid was there too! Hahaa! Crazy-donut-loving-people like us are just...damn crazy!
"wah..so early queue for donuts!"
"strawberry white sounds nice!"
"heart or round?"
Rushed to meet dear with her surprise donut (strawberry heart) & slacked. So unproductive uh? Hahaa! This is what happens when two sleepyheads come together. E.g: take bus, sleep, overshot. Lol! That incident was hilarious! XD
Met up with my lovelies in the evening for dinner at PizzaHut! Before Sharm & Lala start their fasting season. The pasta's really goot! But i guess it always depends on the outlet too.


The girls were excited about the donuts! So cute! Lols! It's really goot! Here are the comments:
according to Esther - "You can sprinkle chilli on it & it taste just as nicee! It's hot!!"
according to Sharm - "The donut is very yummy! I heated it up (at home) & it was soo goot! The choc inside was oozing out! Let's have it next time! :)"
according to Milo - "Omg, it smells real nice! See see..."
& there you have it! :)
Ohyesh. Regarding my first presentation the other day, it was bad. As in, it really is. The day didnt went well either.
Managed to find a rather nice place to mug, while spending long hours of break in school. The benches are fine, but occupied most of the time. The library is beautiful, but one tiny noise & people will just look up. This place i found, shelters me from heavy rain, sun & crowd. Except during class intervals when people will just walk in/out. At other times, this place is pretty quiet. & air-conditioned :) & we can eat here! I think.
NTU babes are so damn lucky! They dont have mid-year exams! Alright, maybe some modules here dont too, but 3 out of 5modules, there're mid-exams, & out of 5modules, there's project work & term paper for 4modules! cant wait for the mid-exams to be over, cos mid-papers will be handed in by then too, & projects end by then too. It'll be much easier to focus on finals that way. Okay i'm whiny. offah.
"Let it pass. One day we'll look back & laugh at it, & realise once again how we told ourselves not to be childish, & we did it again."
"What can i say? We never learn."
& I found out why upper teeth/jaws protrube more than lower jaws/teeth. It's because of molars. That explains why teeth stick out. But still doesnt explain why my two front teeths are unusually big. Gah. Chip.

Dad bought a new car. & i hate it. cos it's not like the one in the foto above. It's really big & i felt really small while sitting in it the day before.
Couldnt shake the feeling off that there's someone sitting behind me (cos it's like...a mpv?) Was sitting in the middle section &; yes, it's very spacious, but boo. It's silver again.
I wanted black. But i lost. The two men in the family are going ga-ga over the new car, which is really expected cos at the end of the day, cars.
It just feels unusally big. I dont like it. I feel empowered in a way. The car in the pic looks way better than this new car.
Old fashion, but beautiful.
***********

din at Holland V's NYDC the other day. yea yea! I know i'm starting to sound like some pig that wakes up at the smell of food, but such a statement doesnt hold true all the time kayy? I LOVE their elephant-cino. BIG BIG JUG of choco-milk with choco-syrup in it! ;d

Overdued post - Din with WenPing at Bugis Street Cafe

I am so overdue again, when it's over, then i start blogging about it.
Met up with WenPing (ex-tuition student) for dinner on erm...Tues/Wed/Thurs/Fri. Walked around with a cookie in hand (from Mrs Fields!) - sticky chewy chocolate, & people-watched while waiting for her.
She gave me a big treat! (for helping her with her 'O'levels then) Aaapple crumble! Was uber delicious! Especially the crust & crumble! ;) her cheesecake superb too! nice catching session! Din together at Bugis Street Cafe. The food's quite nicee!
It felt like so long ago when we were sitting together at her table, & tutoring her e-maths, bio, phy, chem...& all those sec sch stuff. Time really flies. It has been about 1year & 9months since we last met. She'd grown prettier!! Other than that, still pretty much the same blur + cute her as always.
Still the way we were.
WP: omg! i didnt i'm older than you by 2 years!! hahaha i've always thought i was one year older!
me: not much difference hahahaa
WP: you're 19 this year i'm 21 kay! [LOL]
me: next year my turn hahahaa
WP: next year you'll be 20! you can write 19+..then 19++
me: [LMAO]

Here it is, the fresh attempt to blog on a more daily basis, just so to keep in constant updates with my lovelies!
I never knew that maintaining a blog takes so much commitment & effort! Especially now, cos internet's so damn slow, & it takes so long for a single foto to load, & the time taken to edit the nicee fotos we took. Still looking for photoshop, most probably going to get it first thing during my vacation (end of Sem1), but all the time taken just to adjust lighting, & making a simple collage, glow effect & contrasting is already taking sooo loonggg!! Maybe i'm just not gifted in this aspect, or pure lazy. So first, sorry if there're any lack of updates, but i'll try to blog faithfully.
I never knew, when months seems like years, & days like months. It'll be such a huge impact. I didnt know.
Life in NUS is pretty alright. Hectic, yesh. But starting to see quite a few number of familiar faces around school. ShiYing (design & env), WoeiLin (engineering), Yuko (biz), PeiLing, Rachel, Elaine, Esther Khong, this girl from A8, Vithya, HuiShan... it's always nice to see familiar friendly faces.
Tutorials didnt turned out as badly as i thought it would. Heck those stuck-up ass. Some of my modules are actually very interesting.
I feel different. 'Dont Know Why'-Norah Jones. I'd never really liked jazz before this. just started to feel different. Some things have changed.
After much years, i've come to my conclusion on my expectation: 在下雨天时,有一个男人给你漂亮的雨伞是很棒,但还是想要一个在下雨天时,陪我一起淋雨的人... (translation: on a rainy day, will rather have someone to just get drenched with me, than to offer me a pretty umbrella)
Many dont get what i mean, or what's the difference. There is a difference. There is.
天边是否在海角对面...直到十九岁才知道浪费时间...
it took me 19 years to realise how much time i've wasted Looking back at past posts from the old blog, those issues back in jj were so childish. It seemed so long ago. But it was just 2 years back. Not very long...not very long indeed. I wished it was longer. All the time wasted.

went for cheese prata again at Niqqi's Cheese Prata shop! (i'm getting so sick of it. gah) & head off to Bugis Village after school. needed a new bag myself, since the white one just gave way the other day, & practically had to hug my heavy bag home.
another catching up session! especially so when all 4 of us are together! hearts!!
even though i've nothing much to update them on
we so need each other! badly.
oohyesh! found out really recently that Edwin's attending NUS FASS too! yea yea! but that'll be 2yrs later, cos he's still serving NS now. lunch together! cant wait to show him around. i'm his senior! for once. he'd been throwing his weight around, just because he's two days older than me.
oh wait. that's me lmao. bossing him around in the past cos i'm two days younger. 孔融让梨! (translation: the younger one giving in to the older one. but in Edwin & my context, i just used it conveniently haa!) i used to say. even though interpreted it entirely the wrong way, he just simply corrected me, & still rather nice to me. it has been years since.
