heard the word ghim moh over radio just now and memories of ghim moh just went through my head unceasingly.

sometimes, it's not the food that makes me drool. it's the company that i had.

the caller was someone who sold duck rice in ghim moh. i remembered johnson from 6a, he was given the name johnson coz peirera couldnt pronounce huang zhen. i remembered treating pam claypot tofu coz i thot kaihan's surname was yeo and i lost the bet with her.

the crispy white carrot cake. serene recommended it and gideon was happily nodding away, agreeing with serene that the carrot cake from the sister(the 2 stall owners are really related by blood) stall at bukit panjang/timah was better.

ba cou mee. pam was still mentioning it in her card for me. sth i always ate during preparation for exams. and sil always say "i want chu", when he meant "i want cu(vinegar)"

ghim moh ice, basically it's the dessert stall ( sil calls it the desert)--me and cheryl once went over to eat it after open house, coz we were so thirsty. her friend treated us to the ice. lao shi also said sth on the menu was invented by another fellow chinese teacher, think it was called luan qi ba zao...or sth like that. and 3L pple would not like to sit at table C, coz wilson had bird shitted on his ice before.

dong fong fa- the thing i missed most after graduating. went over with seok and minglei after the moe psychometric test, and we all ordered that. me and serene once ordered a plate of chicken for 2. i bugged her about her relationship stuff using the analogy of sauce plate. julie eats chicken rice without the chicken.

teh bing - it all started from shane. and the whole table just ended up ordering teh bing with him. it makes things easier somehow.

i can still remember which street these stalls are. the stalls might not have changed, but the people most likely have. people come, people go. and it's just sad that the friendships that i once held so dear is slipping through my hands without me realising it.

gosh...and the stupid radio had to play di yi shi jian by F4.

i know lindy will message the guys to ask when our og is leaving...wasting her messages esp when she is just sitting at the adjacent table.

in deciding who to buy back dinner for the rest of us, i gave a stupid suggestion that the 2 persons who picked the lowest card will have to go out and buy. in the end, me and jerold had to go out and buy. i bring trouble to myself. on the same night, shane bit my hand ( i cant remember for wad). and sil said, " dont bite the hand that feeds you". it was so funny

i bought back dinner for huileng, jiawei, pam and christelle, and we sat at the netball court to eat. with stars above us, it was really romantic. then was the bird flu period, my ban mian din have eggs =(

haha, i am home now...back to the status of being my mum's girl again. i kinda enjoyed these 2 days when i was people's mum, cooking for and monitoring my kids when they are studying. haha.

so i have been cooking these 2 days, it was esp fun when there are pple cooking with me. :) let me recount..the first day, we had potato soup, cod fish and spagetti. the second day, we had pancakes and hotdogs for breakfast, potato soup, egg, veg, and pork for lunch, and fried rice for dinner. cool sia...cooked 4 meals in hall.

really enjoyed these 2 days...nuaing and tickling and being tickled. :)

minglei...this is for you.

me, kenneth and yixin went for the jj party. we were rather late, considering the fact that there was a really long queue since 3 plus. and we reached promptly at 7. we changed seats 5 times in order to get a good view of jj. (yixin took alot of photos, send them to you when she uploaded them k?)

anyway, jj sang 4 songs only. abit disappointing. the first song was cao cao...good man. damn steady. then he also yuan lai, shu neng shang qiao and bo jian dai....quite sad that he din sing zhi dui ni shuo and down...my 2 other fav songs. then there was this drawing competition. they got 4 pple from the audience to come up and draw jj. they were not very good la, except for one girl. her drawing was really quite good...looked like jj.

but that was not the zhong dian. the zhong dian was jj drew after that. HE WAS SO TALENTED!!! he can sing, can dance, can compose and cand DRAW!!! super idol...super talented...anyway, the drawing was supposed to be a prize but we din win it. almost won it k ? coz kenneth went up to sing yi qian nian ti hou...which was quite good. then there was this cute little boy who went up and sang too...so they gave the prize to the little boy. but nvm la...even if win also not i keep...

then halfway through the concert, lin yu zhong aka no name also made his guest appeearance. i went toilet in the meantime..so no comments. but apparently it was quite good and he was the one who wrote liu xing zhu jiao. cool sia?

all in all...lin jun jie was very cool and good...and he is good for singing live too. too bad i not going concert...really contemplating going for it...you wanna come ? whoever wanna come, tell me k ?

:)

birthday joy is prolonged till today as i received a present from christelle. she bought me a really nice pair of shoes. so happy...

very happy to be in church today after skipping one week due to exams. and i skipped the most important week also, coz it was easter. nvm la...at least i am back this week. anyway, today's sermon was abit boring....the speaker was an mp(for don know which grc) coz the pastors were on a retreat. anyway, he was rather monotonous, and i think things were worse coz it was a video sermon. (he was busy with elections )
anyway, sth funny happened during church. coz the pastors were all on retreat, the one who brought us family news was this guy with a funny accent, the accent reminds me of the "water"(with an accent) incident at swensons.couldnt stop laughing as i was recounting the incident to christelle. hhahahhaha. damn paiseh...and i must control my laughter such that it had no sound...basically i was just vibrating non-stop.


i just remembered that i haven blogged about friday. it was such a happy day! went jp to celebrate the end of exams as well as shuhui's birthday. bought shuhui's present, then we went to swensons for dinner, then watched "take the lead". gosh...the movie was so so good. it's on the highly recommended list. haha. go watch!!

haha, pardon me for the previous post...cant believe i was feeling so stressed up on the morning right after my exams.

anyway, welcome freedom and happiness...wad freedom, wad happiness ? i also don know...suddenly, it feels rather empty to know that i have nothing to do after i wake up. i would miss the breakfast every morning with my normal gang...keeps me motivated to wake up at 8. but now wake up at 8 also no point le...wake up so early to do wad? i also don know...i hafta a lot of things to do but half my gang pple are still having exams.

wait, this is getting depressing. me feeling depress after exams ? no way.

anyway, was super touched after i got home. saw pam's card!! girl, i miss you so much. and as i typed that you came online...so qiao

oh ya, my brother screamed when he saw that i was at home when he came back...haha, so funny. i wonder if it's out of excitement or fear. anyway, he is not as nice as my roomie. my roomie will switch off the lights when i take a nap..my brother on the lights and continue to blast his sun yan zi. luckily i am tired enough to KO...so i am still getting quality sleep.

so after i got home, it was time to rush for tuition again. today's session was damn cui. nearly blew my top at the kids. silence filled the classroom as i said " you think you very funny is it?" thank goodness they kept quiet right after i said that, show that they are dong shi enough. anyway, sometimes the kids shock me.

" london, malaysia, canada, porn, er, i mean perth". (student was reading out answer for a comprehension cloze. answer was supposed to be L, M, C, P)

" my grandmother cant hear well unless she uses hearing aids. but cher, i thought aids is a disease?" ( student was reading out ans for sentence synthesis and said those in a really innocent tone...it'll be my job to brush up their english)

kill me...and i will just die now.

i don know how to evaluate this paper. seemed ok and not ok at the same time. and i calculated my budget wrongly!!! so much for bringing my cow, kill later. kenna killed lor. sianz. i am hoping that the difference is only the number of focus groups and the justification. ok...whatever, i am not going to talk about the paper anymore.

whatever happens, i end my exams tmr. come on. be jealous of me!!!

haha. this is what i am going to do. shop a while, eat scoopz, order pizza for dinner, eat in tv lounge and make everyone jealous of me. wahahha. i am mean. but it is a pay it forward effect. i have been mistreated with squashed up schedules, studying only half of what i should learn due to lack of time, and my papers are so hard! whatever, i am going to study for the other paper le.

last paper....here i come.

i think i did one of the most wu liao things that one can ever do. i msned the whole world, invited them into a chat and told them that sunshine messaged me....i think i am damn off...then i also don know why i did that...

i think i just wanna share my joy with my friends.

haaha, i love posying jokes during exam period. this is funny enough to make me crazy...enjoy.

FUN THINGS TO DO DURING EXAMS

1. Bring cheerleaders.

2. Walk in, get the exam, sit down. About five minutes into it, loudly say to the instructor, "I don't understand any of this. I've been to every lecture all semester long! What's the deal? And who are you? Where's the regular guy?"

3. Do the entire exam in another language. If you don't know one, make one up! For math/science exams, try using Roman numerals. (somewhat this reminds me og shane...him and his new languages.)

4. Come to the exam wearing a black cloak. After about 30 minutes, put on a white mask and start yelling "I'm here, the phantom of the opera" UNTIL THEY DRAG YOU AWAY.

5. Answer the exam with the "Top Ten Reasons Why Professor xxxx is a Terrible Teacher"

6. Fifteen minutes into the exam, stand up, rip up all the papers into very small pieces, throw them into the air and yell out "Merry Christmas. "If you're really daring, ask for another copy of the exam. Say you lost the first one.

there are more. ROOMATES ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED....BECAUSE OF THE FOLLOWING WAYS THEY CAN CONFUSE YOU.

1. Pretend to talk while pretending to be asleep.

2. Move you roommate's personal effects around. Start subtlely. Gradually work up to big things, and eventually glue everything s/he owns to the ceiling.

3. Ask your roommate if your family can move in "just for a couple of weeks."

4. Apoligze to your roommate. If he asks why, tell him that he should know better than you.

5. Hide your underwear and socks in your roommate's closet. Accuse him/her of stealing it. (ok, this is funny, if you know the joke on "Loland wans mk's sok"

6. Shelve all your books with the spines facing the wall. Complain loudly that you can never find the book that you want.

7.While you're roommate is there and you are not, secretly order a pizza up to him using his name.

8. Listen to radio static.

9. Whenever the phone rings, get up and answer the door.

10 . Whenever someone knocks, answer the phone.

11. Tell your roommate that someone called and said that it was really important but you can't remember who it was.
(by the way, if you have already done the above 10 items, your roomie is not likely to believe this. )

12. Give each of your walls a different name. Whenever you can't answer a problem, ask each of your walls. Write down their responses, then ask your ceiling for the final answer. Complain to your roommate that you don't trust your ceiling.

13. Eat a bag of marshmellows before you go to bed. The next day, spray three bottles of whip cream all over your floor. Say you got sick. ( i am hoping that my roomie is nice enough to call the ambulance )

14. Every time you wake up, start yelling, "Where am I?!" and run around the room for a few minutes. Then go back to bed. If your roommate asks, say you don't know what he/she is talking about

15. Draw a tiny, black spot on your arm. Make it bigger every day. Look at it and say, "It's spreading, it's spreading."

16. Buy some knives. Sharpen them every night. While you're doing so, look at your roommate and mutter, "Soon, soon...."
(i dont advise this though)

17. Feign a serious illness for two weeks. Have a priest come to your room and visit you. Write out a will, leaving everything to your roommate. One day, miraculously "recover." Insist that your roommate write out a will, leaving everything to you. Every time he/she coughs, excitedly say, "Oooh, are you dying?"

18. When your roommate comes in, pretend that you are on the phone, screaming angrily and shouting obscenities. After you hang up, say, "That was your mom. She said she'd call back."

19. Sit in front of a chess board for hours, saying nothing, doing nothing. Then, look up and say, "I think this game goes a lot faster with two players."

20. Draw a chalk outline on the floor. When your roommate comes in, say, "Don't worry. It's not what you think." If he/she asks about it again, immediately change the subject.

21. When you leave the room, put on a screensaver that says, "I'm watching you."

22. this is classic...i couldnt stop laughing for quite some time. go to this site.... http://www.ahajokes.com/roomie.html . read no. 141.

abit demoralised now...din know how to do my exam just now. sianz...this is the worst module i have taken so far...it's really very bad. din do well for everything....did badly for quiz, did badly for project, did badly for project...hmm...wad if i get a B-? wa, that's it man....

i think i better not continue anymore. well...sth happy happened today. coz sunshine messaged me to wish me luck. haha, got a shock when i saw the message.

anyway, cant wait for exams to end. these are the things i am going to do after exams.

1. stay in hall and celebrate
2. watch a midnight movie
3. be mean to everyone who is still having exams
4. be nice to everyone who is still having exams
5. ice-skate or pick up a new skill
6. watch alot of movies.
7. watch alot of korean dramas
8. go for jj party with xin and ...
9. kbox and kbox and kbox
10. look at the sky every night....i still hope to see the halo again.
11. catch up with all my friends by asking them to go kbox or movies with me.
12. try the fried mars in far east
13. paint my nails

hoping to achieve these before intersem starts. and after intersem ends...wahaha...more fun is expected.

ok...i feel that life is a little more hopeful now. :)

exams gonna start in less than 12 hours time but i know i am not prepared. i am not exactly scared or stressed, i think i am lost. a little lost...aptly describe how i am feeling right now. haha.

today i told siting about what happened on the mrt on friday. i loved watching her reaction. she just screamed after every sentence i said. and ended with a salute to me. hahaha. she is very cute. which made me wonder what is wrong with asking a guy for his no. ? i have nothing to lose anyway. and what is wrong with grapping every opportunity that you have? procrastination is the reason why people lose the things they once desired, and i hope i am not losing the things i want.

haha, go try this...very fun...

yesterday was a happy day, but i haven got the chance to put it into words...too seh to do so already. so i'm just kopping from yixin. i liked her description...


by a certain turn of events (basically wan's tutee push fwd the tuition time)
wan landed in the same mrt cabin as sunshine, tog with a group of comm studies friends
she roughly know the ppl there and that they just had a paper
so she conveniently joined the group and zhuang shou (pretended to be familiar with them) and crap stuff like"how's the paper today"
(she's good right.)
at jurong east, sunshine, wan and another person got down to take north south line.
the other person was rather bz with her hp...
so it's down to sunshine and wan
(wow!)
apparently, sunshine got notice wan because of her ringtone.
which is a jj song: sarang heyo
and...!!!
sunshine is a jj fan!!
he has the album and so, the entrance ticket to jj party on 23rd april!!!
he had nobody to go with and intended to sell the tix.
wan (immediately, i tink) asked him to join us... and even got his number to make future arrangements..!!! wahha. pro.
for more, tune in on 23rd april.

"the night can come, and we will still stay warm, because the sun is still here"

"it's just a pic, sunshine will always be sunshine"

thanks yixin....i loved the phrases...

just now crusaders came and prayed for me too...

turned this horrible day of spoiling my phone and seeing vandalism around....

smiles...

ok, i am pissed off all over again after the reading the previous post, so i am here to post sth else to cover up, trying to make myself less pissed off.

let me tell you sth funny that happened this morning.

my hp alarm rang at 730 this morning, so i woke up feeling cmi, so i took the hp, snoozed it and went back to sleep. i had a dream after that. i dreamt that i was supposed to catch a rat and get rid of it by throwing it outside the window. in my dreams i opened up my palm and let the rat slipped out, but the rat clung on to my hands. so i threw it out using alot of strength.

the next thing i heard was a thud.

my phone was later found 1 metre away from my bed.

chin chin, who did not witness the incident, also heard a loud thud in the midst of her sleep. ( one can imagine how loud it is)

i still think it is damn funny...

currently very pissed off now.

saw the vandalism of sunshine's face at the expression board. DO YOU KNOW HOW PUBLIC THE PLACE IS? it's beside the canteen and everyone can see it.

i REALLY have no idea what's wrong with this person who vandalised it. this person had neither values nor morals, or he is simply just sick in the mind.

now it's not about someone i liked having his face vandalised. It is about this psycho being mad and not showing any respect to humans. hello, if you are really jealous of someone better looking at you, you can do it in your own room and put the picture up on your own wall. you don have to put it on the expression board. freedom of expression is not equal to freedom of vandalism.

buzzed off, pissed off...

i have alot of good food to recommend man.

1. amk lib's chicken chunks--i have been eating this everytime i go to the library. it's actually fried chicken nuggets, but it's the real chicken meat, not the squashed kinds you see at macs. You have to eat it while it's really hot, then u can feel the oil oozed out from the chicken chunks. (ladies, i know this is extremely sinful, but no one can resist it.)

2. kit-kat-sakura flavour-- have you ever tasted sakura! i haven, i have not even seen one. BUT you will know wad it is all about after eating the sakura chocolate. and because it is sakaura-flavoured, you wont even know that you are eating chocolate. (so you wont feel sinful at all). there's also a story behind the chocolates. in japanese, kitto-kat means good luck for exams, and therefore, the jap students are snacking kit-kat for exams.

3. my own cooked noodles -- i am quite tired to type the recipe now. next time then say la...

life is full of limited choices

i think there is so much truth in this statement. i recalled the time when i was in sec 2, i had to choose which cca i wanted to drop--either CO or track and field. In the end i chose to stay in CO. i wasnt very happy in there for the last 2 years.( due to some politics). But if i had stayed in track instead...i don know, coz i was never there. if i had chosen both, mt studies will suffer. if i had chose none, i will lose both passions of my life, making my life a meaningless one.

so whichever i choose, or not choose, i end up not being contented.

i guess the best way to explain this is by what the economist termed as the-- oppprtunity cost. to put it succinctly, choice=sacrifice. and this is the fundamental reason why choices are always limited, and you will always be not fully contented with what you have.

i would love it if i don have to choose from choices given to me. e.g. there are 16 jcs to choose from, but i only want to go rj. but then again, the 16 jcs are not choices to me, they are mere alternatives for others, but not me, to explore.

when life is presented with choices, they are always limited and you will always be unhappy. the best way is to forget the other choices and don regret whatever you have chosen.

wa...don know i wrote a post with so many grammatical mistakes...so this is the edited version.

hey, have been sick for the past few days. according to the doctor, it was lack of oxygen in the brain. what the hell is that man? i can't interpret it. medicine students...explain please! therefore i've been guessing. is it lack of haemoglobins or are the blood vessels in the brain clogged up. either way, it doesnt seem very good, coz if I really lack alot of oxygen, i will become a vegetable and eventually be brain dead. scary sia? maybe studying bio for O and As isnt a good thing, you learn abit here and there but you do not know everything, and you start scaring yourself with the worse case scenario.

but actually i am quite glad that i am sick. then i can deh alot at home. i can refuse to eat anything i dont feel like eating. i can sleep anytime i want. i can whine and whine. and my parents will just give in to me.

i hope i am not being wilful or anything along the line, but i think it's just a need of attention since i dont spend much time at home anymore, just want to know what it is like to be their little girl again.

hey people, those kenna tagged by me, hafta write a post on 5 simplest pleasures in life. sth like my previous post. get it? and pass this on to another 5 people...pass the happiness on k? those din kenna tag by me also do the same k? wanna read about the 5 simplest pleasures in your life.
