suddenly felt like turning on the tv though it was already 1 plus in the morning. and it was a korean show playing. it was nearing to the end i think. i didn't really know the plot. but it felt so sad. and i felt so sad suddenly that i cried. for the show. or for whatever reasons i don't really know.


went to sushi tei with family for dinner just now. and the person forgot to charge us for our ice-creams. hahs. not our business. it's supposed to be in the computer system. the person didn't even double-check with us. but yayness for free jap ice-creams :)


ogl camp was quite fun. my og is full of ogls in sports ccas. there was once we had to hang on the monkey bars for bonus, the guys 30 secs and the girls 15 secs. but because the girls are all in basketball or odac, we ended up hanging for more than 30 secs. and the guys were like 'wah. u all very strong ah!' and in my head i was thinking 'im dying.' and it was those kind of metal monkey bars. very high. not those plastic ones.but it was a team thingy and if they don't drop i cant drop.and i injured myself. we're supposed to slide down this curly slide holding hands. 13 ogls. i ended up having my hand stretched so long that it went 'CRACKED!'. haas. cus i was already at d bottom of d slide and d girl holding my hand was still on top. the stretch was so long and painful that d tears dropped down unknowingly.and then my knees got bruised and cuts on the slide. haas. hms.and i just called the year ones that im supposed to call. quite a few cchms ones. and zhonghua also alot. why ahs..zhonghua is very far. and woots. i love mass dancing. haas. oh.learnt from zhu. tj peeps. mass dance at suntec city fountain next saturday night. please go kes? we'll make the place go dhoom! haas.


i haven't done my homework. seriously. ivan please don't be so upset over homework kes? :)

he said he'll tell me something the next day, but he never did. and i've ceased to wonder what it was.

i want you in my arms ;
- 3:29 AM

mass dance practices was pretty okes i guess. didn't go for the second day wan though. and quite little people went on all three days. the third day was quite awkward.. so little people and it made me obvious cus i didn't know how to dance as i wasn't there on the second day. but it was all great fun once the steps are about there. hms. and the dance practices reminded me of how much i miss dancing the best things in life are free.

on wednesday, after mass dance practice, i went to kaiying's house to prepare for the leo gifts. after which, i went tm and cs with xiaoting. and saw cunzheng and sweewei with the ny counsellors doing the salvation army thingy! hahs. i kindly donated and cunzheng stuffed a stack of calendars into my bag. hehs. cunzheng asked how many people in tj arts taking s papers and told me ny has 8. and told him i think my class has about 8 ppl taking s papers. hahs. and he gave me a big high five when i told him that i finally dropped maths. and he proudly added that he dropped after taking it for only 2 weeks. haha. and i kept seeing the bunch of them at cs. at least five times. so coincidental.


the leo camp went pretty well i think. hahs. at least we managed to get the camp done and over with. and we worked rather well really. hms. but as i was one of the project ics, i didn't have much to do during the camp itself and only helped a little here and there.poor benjamin was under so much stress being the chairman. oh..and some of the kids were really cute. i really like kids of that age, when they're older, they're not so much fun anymore. but there're those really naughty ones, and i really admire those leos who have to take care of them. eh. and i felt really happy when i saw some girls tying the clothe i bought on their hair. haha.
on the first day, i was station master with daniel and it was quite kuku beacuse we're supposed to spend abt. 30 mins with each group and we only spent about 3 mins. hahs. the rest of the time we just sat on the stage and talked. it was the first time we talked i think. we don't even say 'hi' or 'bye' in school and before the station games started, it was as if we didn't know each other and i thought we'll work together badly. but it was really quite okes. he didn't leave me to manage even one group on my own though he was needed to do the food, luckily he didn't cus the kids were chaos. and he asked me when i want to explain the game to the groups and when i didn't feel like it he'll explain.hehs.
on the second day, i was asked to hold the limbo rock pole on stage during the concert. and the kids can really limbo. we had to put the pole till so low that it scared me that the kids will break somewhere and i kept asking kaiying to make it a little higher. hahs. and some seniors came back for the concert. some of them i didn't even see before. and a few wanted to kapo the buffet dinner when we were already packing the food. this guy took the only packet of rice which was left and we packed. it was such a huge packet but he ate it by himself such that his friend who came later has only the ingredients to eat. it was really furnie seeing the way they kapo food. and i really laughed at them infront of them. the concert also made me laughed like i was a primary school girl. the kids can really shake and they will sing even when they go really pitchy. hahs. it was so cute.
it was nice working with such a great commitee. and i want to thank everyone for putting up with me. especially my project ics partners kaiying and xiaoting. they really did alot. :) *big huggs.


hms.i think im really in trouble. i swear i haven't touched a single piece of homework, more like, say, i haven't even wrote even my name on them. well done, i think i must find a hw robot. who's gona do work this festive weekend and i still have ogl camp next week. and am gona work in a new year's eve event. wish me luck. hahs.


have a wonder-wonderful christmas everyone :) be good boys and girls in the festive season!!
and HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR PARA! you're 18 at last! :)


oh. a colour test i did. http://web.tickle.com/color/?test=colorogt
Your color is red, the color of racy sportscars, blushing cheeks, and luscious roses. Red symbolizes passion, romance, and love. So, since you're ruled by red, you probably trust your feelings more than your brain and tend to act spontaneously. If you see something you want, you go for it without thinking twice — impulsive is your middle name. You don't wait around for people to make decisions, either; you dive right in. Quite the romantic, you pay close attention to your emotions. In fact, if your heart isn't in what you're doing, you won't be satisfied. Of course, even when you do pour all your energy into the projects you tackle, your impetuous nature means your passions can shift as frequently as the wind. That's why some reds have trouble with commitment. Our advice? Next time you're feeling fickle, think before you act, if possible. You might be surprised at the results. Overall, though, it's great to be red. No one lives life more completely than you do.

hahs. i don't really agree with some parts. but it's quite true i guess. so, what's your colour? :)

i suddenly felt as if my whole world had crumbled. for that moment.
but the tears wouldn't fall. and it really ain't helping.

hms. went out with A2 peeps today..esthee,yingxia,jok,xi,mervy and kitson. just walked and talked.walked and talked. and ate. hahs. and then talked to xi on d way home like how we used to on bus 8. thankew mervy and kitson for pei-ing me go back taka. to get my food :) oh..and thankew very much for my belated birthday prezie! :)


they were talking abt ny's ogl workshop today and which reminded me of my mass dance practices next week. im really not looking forward to it. i ponned like 2 out of 3 days of tj's orientation 2, going back ny on the second day. and whatever little dance steps i learnt on the first day, i've clean forgotten. all i know is tj's mass dances are very complicated so that people like me would take a long time to learn. good luck to me next week.


and leo camp is also next week. it's going to be such a tiring week. i can just foresee that.


orchard is getting too crowded. or is it just me? it was like that on tuesday and even worse today. why is everyone like rushing to do shopping? it's not like there hasn't been sales before or like everything is going super cheap. i had to say sorry so many times today cus i kept bumping into people.or people kept bumping into me. and the platform at orchard was so crowded the announcer had to ask passengers to 'kindly wait for the next train' repeatedly.


my tummy hurts so much im taking d stomach flu medicines again. what if i becomes addicted to them? hahs. oh..hais. and i still have leo dsc comm meeting tomorrow.


The pain reflected in this song
Ain't even half of what
I'm feeling inside, i need you
Need you back in my life baby.

.random stuff.

(a) i love christmas. it's my favourite festive celebration. yups. love it much more than chinese new year. i love buying and wrapping christmas prezies. i love christmas shopping. and imagining what the person will like. hahs. ive such good taste that daddy and mummy leave all the christmas shopping to me :) means i can buy prezies for all the cousins and my god nieces and god nephews and happily wrap them all up. i simply love picking prezies for all the ages :) hahas. and i bought 3 boxes of christmas cards and am having fun writing them all :)


(b) went john little sale twice. think the service there. hmms..*shakes head. first day this person told my fren off. says she should not look at the bras there cus they're not her size. (but kitson says ppl in black are promoters, not jl staff). okess. then there's this guy who stood there talking to his friend from outside for very long then ended the conversation with ' you wait a while. i go punch card'. and when my friend asked for help cus she cant find a size for something, she asked the person if there's still that design for that size and the person went ' it's all there. look yourself'. hmms. and on the second day, a person told me there's no winter wear selling there but i saw it later. but still, i think the sale has some good buyss :) ehhs. sorry kitson.. ur shift is too early! hahs..i haven't even wake up during that time.


(c) went out with yueting to do night shopping for clothes on friday. bought 2 skirts. nyahas. one from ebase (40% off all bottoms!) and one from new world order. and then on the mrt we met a bitter and insane fat malay woman. she totally ruin my happy mood. it's a friday night, the mrt is crowded with people trying to get home. she and her daughter (older than us) refused to move inside but stood near the entrance blocking people who are coming in. so being the most courteous girl ever, i wanted to move in. there was space between d poles and the daughter .being not as fat as the woman, i wanted to just walk through cus the two of them were seemingly in a conversation. anws. the woman moved her daughther aside and made a snide remark 'don't even know how to say excuse me' to which i gave a stare. and she kept harping it to her daughther abt ppl who don't know manners. please lahhs. according to the straits times, librans are 'most famous for' our courteous manners. and i'll say 'thankew' to anyone who is worthy of my respect.and i always smile and say 'thankew' to people who greet me at shops.so to her harpings, yueting went ' i don't know why she keep harping on it' and i went ' yahhs, she didn't want to move in' we weren't speaking loudly. people who know me and yueting would know we're not the ah lian kind. but that woman was eavesdropping and she turned around, shouted ' shut up' at us. i felt embarassed for her really. yueting had to go a bigger round when she was getting down cus d woman purposely went to stand beside her daughter and stretch her arms over the poles. she looked idiotic lahs. and after that she commented on how' stupid' yueting was. wth.thats not all. she dropped at the same stop as me and waited for me at d gantry. she kept shouting at me. she thought that she got big body and big voice she will win but her arguments totally made no sense. she made d small incident so big and i felt her so childish to try to pick an argument with a teen. everyone at d station was staring at us. i won her senseless arguments hands down and she just have to end with a 'shut up!' to which i wanted to shout 'big fat ( literally and not) loser.' but i maintained my composure and said 'oh my gosh.' and went away. afterwards, tears dropped while i was at d interchange. i wasn't crying for her. but i was thinking how unfair it was. and i didn't like speaking so loudly in public. i think she's a really bitter woman with nothing better to do. it's people like her who make the otherwise gracious singapore seems ungracious. she'll receive her punishments for spoiling a friday night for two innocent girls.


(d) the incident above reminds me of one that happened in genting when i was at the theme park with friends. ( during choral competition in 03) and this parent decided to scold one of my friend for something that is entirely not our fault. being a person who could stand no unfairness, i defended my friend. but that person was so crude and was hurling abuses at us like 'bitch!' that i was about to cry. so ian had to help us. ( ny's ian) he apologised to that person. i really don't understand why he apologised. such people are not worthy of our apologies. ian must be too polite. really, some adults should just grow up.


(d) on thursday night, he said something that really upset me. and then i decided to think it through. it would never work out. we have too many things in common. including personality, in some ways. when we are angry with each other, neither of us would give way. and im really not as impt. to him as he is to me. i would let it go, slowly. im only human too.



(e) yayness. memoirs of a geisha movie is coming out. at last! why is it that japan and the u.s get to see it from 9th dec and 10th dec respectively when we can only see on the 19th jan? i could hardly wait. been waiting for the movie ever since i read that book last year. and i re-read it again this year. and d trailers are really nice. hahs. but a friend told me it is m18. i seriously don't care, even if it's R21 i have to think of ways to get in. but hopefully, it's just nc-16, at the most. people who know me would know that i don't even look 17. hahs.


(f) daddy's in china for work. so we can't do all the christmas shopping like previous years. so sads. and mummy don't dare to drive the car cus she hasn't driven for a long time.


happy belated birthday dear SANSAN and RAMBU! :)


When you have to look away
When you dont have much to say
Thats when i love you
I love you, just that way
To hear you stumble when you speak
Or see you walk with two left feet
Thats when i love you
I love you, endlessly
And when you're mad cus you lost a game
Forget im waiting in the rain
Baby i love you,
I love you anyway

i want you in my arms ;

urrghs. don't know wassup with photobucket. this is the fourth time im typing this post lahhs. Anwss. am back from vietnam! turned out that my boss had something cropped up and had to fly to hongkong the next day we arrived in vietnam. so he sort of paid for our airfares and lodgings for us to be on a holiday. and he is really super nice cus he treated us to all our meals before he left for hongkong at very nice vietnamese restaurants, and paid for our city tour (for the day he left for hongkong), and arranged for a chauffeur to fetch us to the airport on the day which we leave vietnam and called me from hongkong to ask if we had arrived safely in singapore. and the hotel we stayed in is under the charge of his brother so the hotel ppl know us as "mr. henry's friends" such that we get discounts when we sign up for extra tours and are well taken care of. so. hahs. we are on a free and easy holiday in vietnam. The teachers really didnt bother with us and seemed to be on a shopping trip of their own. One of them said "when u travel to a third-world country you always spend" and so they really spent and spent. but they're really quite nice and treated us on the last night which i afterwards asked to treat them to cakes at a cafe in return. so me and the other girl were mostly left to fend for our own. which means we can wake up anytime we like ( as long as we're in time for the hotel breakfast) and then we would look at the maps and go to wherever we like, on our own. i started making friends with the hotel ppl and the tourist centre near our hotel becomes a place which we visit often for directions. Think we were really brave considering that lonely planet book described vietnam as "the most theft-ridden country in asia" and there are 1 motorbike for every 3 persons there. And the roads are really messy. And drivers horn like nobody's business. And the colour of traffic lights does not matter. And the pedestrain lines on the roads doesnt really exist. And beggars were a common sight. Yet, two seventeen years old girls walked everywhere as if they have lived in vietnam all their lives. hahs.


annws. This post shall be on my job attachment and vietnam trip. hopefully it helps me in writing my feedback and report which i have to hand in. hah. so bear with me yahhs.




This is the boss of my company's major client company, so he can be said to be my boss as well. he is a philippines who studied in america. and i love his slang. hehs.




This is my desk in the office. To my left is the general manger room.




This is the warehouse. have never seen so much alcohol and tobacco in my life. hahs. and I discovered that they have new flavours for absolute vodka again. bahs.




On the day of our departure, we saw the team singapore leaving for manila for the SEA games. the teachers say is the sailing team. hahs. quite a few are quite good-looking. And they have the cheerleaders outside the departure hall cheering too :)





On the night that we arrived in vietnam, vietnam won laos in the SEA games football. the whole nation was celebrating such that the streets were full of motorbikes. It was so chaotic with people screaming and waving the vietnam flag and banners. There was hardly any road that is not blocked and taking my camera out to take a picture of this was really risky cause anyone can just whisk my camera away on the motorbike. it is not really clear but the whole street is actually filled. One could hardly breathe with the thick exhaust gases in the air.




A patrotic little boy. vey cute! hahs. but he refused to look into my camera.





This is how the road looked like from my hotel. it cleared abit after the traffic police decided to come




At the hotel with the boss :)




The cathedral. And a wedding car too. there were so many weddings while we were there, including a few at the hotel.




The lacquerware factory which employs the handicapped. to support them, i bought something. as it is so labour-intensive, it costs me quite a bit. bahs.




The pictures of the vietnam war. The picture of a mother with her children trying to cross a river really gripped my heart.




The ben thanh market. We go there almost everyday when we have nothing to do. It has almost everything there and is 15-20 times as big as a sinagpore wet market and has many many many stalls. This is one of the many entrances




This is my attachment partner. and the only pic. i took alone with her. She is really weird. she don flush the toliets sometimes and when i told her so she’ll go "never mind lahhs"and i’ll say "of course never mind to you but you nearly made me puke out my meal." And she is always saying senseless things. She keeps saying she wants to buy tiger airways tickets home the next day. She keeps calling her parents and she keeps complaining about everything, and maybe because she is the only child, she is really spoilt. One day, i was cleaning my slippers because it was so full of dust and she asked me for blotters. She didnt say "please" or "can I" and when i told her to wait cus i was busy she went "quick quick!" I got angry and said she is spoilt. after she used the blotter she went "oh, ive no oil leiis, think you can reuse this piece." wth.
And she keeps talking about her ‘korkors.’ She has a habit of repeating the same thing at least 15 times so that i get irritated. whatever i buys she makes sure she buys it too.One day, i was buying shirts when she asks me which colour and design is nice every 2 secs such that I cant choose anything .I really don’t know why she cant make any decisions on her own. and whatever I tell the teacher she echoes me. And one day she left our hotel room door open and we got scolded real bad. Our room is directly opposite the lifts and the teachers saw it when they were going to the lifts and berated us and said we were "waiting to be rape" and even told the boss,giving him a bad impression. I thought it unfair to be scolded so badly for something that isnt really my fault. Though we were partners and im supposed to look out for her but I was not the last to enter the room. doesn’t it makes sense for the last to shut the door? So we grew really paranoid about doors and we agreed to have the doors locked. And she was turning the lock knob when she shouted "I think the lock is not working! I still open the door though I’ve locked it!" and I tried explaining to her for 10 mins that of course we must be able to open it from inside or we can’t get out. She didnt believe me. So she went outside and tried. Of course the door cant open and THEN she is statisfied. I wonder how much common sense she has really. And she likes to peel oranges on my bed. And she is so easily jealous. She told the teachers that I like to be clean and the teachers say it is good to be clean so she said the teacher like me better and she wasnt very happy when a lady at the market said I was pretty and she kept making fun of me cus this hotel technician kept smiling at us like a mad dog whenever he sees us. And she has the habit of leaving lights on to sleep and refused to let me off even when she is asleep so I have to sleep with the bed lamp glaring at me. really, ive never had a room mate quite like her.




The cathedral and behind is the diamond plaza, a korean shopping mall.




A flood in the countryside. Somehow, I was intrigued by it. And I got chased by a dog in the countryside with really sharp and red teeth while trying to enter a shop to buy coca cola bottles for my dad because he collects them from different countries.




Fishing boats on the mekong delta river. The girl forced me to go for the river tour. so everyone had to go and the teachers had to cancel their shopping appointments cus they dont go around with us unless on such tours. I didnt want to go cus it was 36 USD, even after discount, which is about 61 bucks sin. and i was low on budget. all because she was so insistent.




Fishball noodles. In the previous post, I was worried about vietnam food not being nice, suprisingly, the food are really quite nice. but this was an exception. Though I white base soup makes it looks yummy, it noodles are really not nice and the fishballs are hard.




An old woman on her boat in the tributaries. I love this picture :)




We had coconut juice on this boat. i really nearly got seasick.




Five of us on this tiny tiny little boat. i was so damn afraid cus we were told that it was high tide. The red cap is not mine, if you are thinking why im wearing it. hahs. it is from the teachers. They brought clothes to donate cus the sri lanka cip trip was cancelled.

i want you in my arms ;
