Schadenfreude

The landlady SUCKS

2010-06-08T02:28:00.001+08:00

That piece of shit refuses to give me back my deposit because she is a stupid cunt who does not know what to do with her life. It isn't enough she decided to make my life a living hell, but she also decides to be kaypoh and try to run my life. I hope she dies.

Gaga!!

2010-05-28T00:22:00.001+08:00

My com died!!!!! Damn it to hell!! Sigh.

In good news, i'm moving out of tt idiotic women's place!!! :D

Hey!

Sorry for not updating lately... in school now doing a little revising for my test and this guy came up to me..

Him: Excuse me, do u speak english?

Me: Yes.

Him: BLAHBLAHBLAHBLAH (in french)

Me: Uhh... No.

Him: Ok thank you.

Me: O.O

LOL!! And i have alot of stuff to talk abt!!! Where i went on my trip to Austria and Switzerland. Its was so much fun! And i went by myself so i was pretty quick. I could explore a town within 2 hrs and i walked SO MUCH... My goodness, ever since the day got longer i've been spending much more time outside. The sun sets at abt 8.30 now or 8.40... And it feels so weird. I heard that the longest day in the year is on the 22nd june. That is when the sun sets at ard 10!!! Too bad i'm going home on the 16th. Which btw, i can't wait!!!! There is so much stuff i have to send back. URGH! Damn expensive to send stuff back.

Well, i'm going now but i'll be back!

Fucking Stupid Cheebye 三八！！！！

2010-03-30T20:53:00.002+08:00

Ass of a bitch. I'm so pissed off by that stupid cunt.

This is what happened. Before tt, a small background info:
CAF: Gov. returns some money to you when u pay rent. For example, if i pay 350 rent, depending on my situation, the french government will return me eg; 100 euros of my money into supposedly MY ACCOUNT.

So tt stupid bitch tells me i got my CAF and that i do not need to pay her so much. I was wondering how much my CAF was and i told my roommate how come i have not recieved a letter from CAF telling me my password online and how to check to see how much money i got. She tells me she saw my letter on the table a few weeks ago and she thought i took it. I told her i saw no such letter and i felt that the landlady took my letter for who knows what reason. This wasn't the first time she took my things. Once, i left my letter from the bank with all of my bank info on the table and left for class. When i came back it was gone and only RECENTLY i found that letter laying so innocently on the table. So fucking obvious she took it. So i decided to go into her room to find my letter. TRUE ENOUGH, my letter from the CAF was in HER FUCKING bedroom. It had MY NAME ON IT AND SHE KEPT THAT LETTER. LIKE WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!

So i took the letter to my room and decided to check how much money she got from the CAF and it turns out she got abt 740 euros. Fuck. Then, i decided to confront her the next day cuz i wanted to finalize all the calculations.

Next day i went to the lodgement office to complain abt tt bitch and when i went back home i confronted tt cunt abt all the payments and i told her i should not pay for the last 2 mths since she owes me so much money. THAT FUCKING BITCH tells me I should pay her more since i'm already receiving help from the CAF. So she increased my rent from 350 to 380 without telling me and said that she increased it cuz i was using so much electricity. BITCH I PAID FOR THAT SHIT!!! It was all in the contract that the pix included EVERYTHING. She had NO FUCKING right to change the price of my rent and change the deals cuz she thinks so. And she takes advantage of the fact tt i can't understand all french and talks fast so tt i can't understand what she says. So my roommate helped me to translate. By then i was so pissed off cuz she kept insisting she was right and that it was "so simple" and why i couldn't understand anything. So she told my roommate that i always couldn't understand everything and that i was too dumb to understand. FUCK. You think i dun understand an insult?!?! That stupid old hag kept insisting i owed her money when she owe me over 740 euros! I was so damn frustrated and angry i wanted to punch her fucking face so i told her I'm going to the office to sort it out. And she said something like she was kicking me out of the house that day. My friend asked her if she would return my deposit back and she said NO. Of course that stingy bitch won't give it back.

I went to the office and by then i was so pissed off. I was like crying on the street. My friend and i went to the office and we explained the situation to the lady and then she said she couldn't do anything. Then the cunt came in and explained her side of the story which was ALL LIES. FUCKING BITCH. She said she was fed up with me at the home cuz i used up too much energy and my cooking smells bad. EXCUSE ME??!?! At least my food doesn't smell of rotting cheebyes. Asian food smells damn fucking good bitch . And she wanted to kick me out of the appt THAT DAY. And in the office she was like " Oh felicia is over reacting.. I never said such a thing. I'm more than happy to let her stay on until the end of may.. etc etc" ALL FUCKING BULLSHIT. I told the lady everything and she explained to that bitch that she couldn't anyhow raise my rent cuz it was already stated in the contract that i payed 350 every mth to include everything and she can't anyhow change it.

After some discussion, the cunt left and i told the office lady that if i didn't receive my money i was going to go to the police with it. She told me not to be so hasty and to put out an excel sheet stating how much i payed and so on... So then i went to the CAF office and changed the acc so she would receive anymore money from me.

Oh yes, that night, she told me she did not need me to pay for the last too months as a gift from her to me. FUCK. I dun need charity. She thinks its a privilege to stay in her house. And she is "letting" us use the hse. BITCH PLEASE.... I pay u so much to stay in that crappy house where the bathroom sucks, the sink is so lousy cuz the water doesn't drain quickly and the entire place is so creaky. Plus NO ONE can use the electricity at 10 to 11 cuz if not the whole house electricity would cut off. FUCK YOU and GO TO HELL.

The end.

PS: I'm still pissed.

I bought a new pair of Sunglasses!

2010-03-11T22:20:00.002+08:00

In preparation for summer/Spring! I bought these at the sale back in feb from Mango for 7 euros and thought... Hmm well, i can use it when spring comes in march.

Well, now its march and its SO FRIGGIN COLD. No use for the sunglasses whatsoever. And sometimes its so cold tt i feel like i'm getting sluggish or at least turning into a slug-like creature. I'm so lazy to go out and walk about. I'd rather stay where its warm and nice...

I can't wait for next week! I heard its gonna get a whole lot warmer!!

Oh yes, i'm hating the msn. Lots of weird random people adding me and i can't tell apart who i know and who i don't so i'm not gonna log in to tt for a while. Besides, i hate to chat on msn. Face to face is so much better...

Feeling confused...

2010-03-02T03:31:00.002+08:00

The title says it all...

Currently feeling very confused... First off, i'm feeling so homesick and i really feel like going home now... Hate to learn french as its so damn time consuming... Then on the other hand i really want to stay here but i want to travel around europe! But the budget's not cutting it and as my parents told me, they are not made of money so i can't just travel anywhere....

Urgh! Plus today cuz there was a new room mate that was coming in, the stupid old crusty vagina hag of a bitch landlady starts messing with my things again and i can't find my rice. On top of that, i cooked chicken rice and she came in and started giving me a lecture about how I should think about other people and respect them and that my food smells like crap. Oh yes, and also she constantly tells me how HIGH the goddamn electricity bill is and how i shld cut down, how that since its her house i should ALWAYS clean up after myself even though like hello!?!?!? I do do that and tons of other nonsensical stuff.

I really want to punch her in the fucking head. And i think i'm getting a little depressed staying in that dark dank musty old person's house! I should get out more.

The things i miss

2010-02-27T22:47:00.002+08:00

Feels like i'm in "one of those moods" right now...

Well, being here, there are so many things that i miss... For example:

1. My bolster
2. My dog
3. SWIMMING
4. of course friends and family!
5. FOOD
6. English
7. Good internet
8. Cheap books and clothes and food and entertainment

And there are things that I don't miss like:
1. The fact that i can jog and NOT sweat. Awesome
2. The heat! Spring is here!!!!!!
3....

That's it. Sigh, feel like going back now!

CNY!

2010-02-16T01:01:00.002+08:00

Hello! How was yur CNY?

Mine was full of drama.... Well, we had hot pot at my friends place so me and CJ went to buy the ingredients. Firstly the wheel from the trolly kept coming off. Then the beers were so heavy! We had to lug them back and up the stairs. When the people came nothing was cooked yet and we hurried to prepare everything. After that nathan decided to bring 2 of his friends. One he wanted to sleep with (no surprise) and her friend. So the friend decides to get really drunk and tells Chiajeng that she is tired and wants to sleep. CJ says ok but puts a bucket next to her and says if u really want to vomit u must vomit in here and the girls says alright.

Next thing u know, the girl vomits in the sink and clogs it up and the next part is damn drama... The girl was up and wanted to vomit again and from downstairs we can hear her friend and CJ shouting like NO NO NO!! And she sprays the vomit all over CJ's bed and her clothes. CJ got so pissed she started to scream;"GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HOUSE NOW!"

Guess where I had to stand? I stood below and we were just chatting causally when i felt something on my head and it turned out to be HER VOMIT. How fucking disgusting was that?!?!?! I washed my hair like 50 times that night... So nathan is embarrassed to no end and the atmosphere was so tense. The girl offered to clean up and pay for damages but my friend said it was more important to go home.

So after that, we helped a little to clean and it was gross... chicken chunks were everywhere.... And then to forget the whole incident, we decided to go to the bar where we all drank 2 tequila shots each to try and forget the night.

Yup. That's all.. bye!

Ang mohs r dumb

2010-02-10T23:47:00.002+08:00

There were so many questions today that made me roll my eyes.

1. What race is a "Singaporean"?
2. Which part of china is Singapore in?

This one was from a Thai person:

Oh! Singapore!! Below thailand right???

(No, its at the tip of the Malay peninsula dumbass.)

My favourite:
"HOW COME YOU KNOW CHINESE?!?! YOU'RE FROM S'PORE!"

The look on people's face. Priceless.

I'm so behind

2010-02-09T02:05:00.003+08:00

There are so many things to talk abt. Ok, for the vacation, the pics r on fb so there is no need to post them here.

In rome we went to the vatican museum and basically everywhere else. You meet the strangest people in hostels like this guy who HAD to keep saying this phrase "You know what i'm saying' after EVERY sentence. Yes! Also, a fake kiwi, a gay guy and there was free pasta involved.

Venice and genova. Very fun. Rode for free on the water bus cuz we're cheap and the tickets were ex. Genova, good seafood though we wanted to hike around Cinq terre, we didn't have time and weren't in the mood after Hanh's purse got stolen.

In venice

Ok, pisa, nothing much except for the leaning tower, bad camera angles i think. When we saw it it looked really crooked but in shots not so much.

New years in Milan, thank god for the riot police as u can see in the pic behind us. The crazy assholes were throwing crackers ard and it was scary. The riot police drove away after a while and we left soon after.

OK! On to the ski trip from HELL. It sucked cuz after 6 times falling on my face and humiliating myself i gave up. They just let us ski without any instruction and what's more, the damn slope was so damn fucking slippery. See for yurself....

Before skiing. Full of optimism.

After skiing.

At least the alps were pretty!

And for my birthday!!! My friend threw me a party at her new home. She cooked authentic thai food and one of my other classmates baked a cake for my birthday!! Awesome chocolate cake... MMMMMMmmmmm!!! Hahaa! Had to help with the grocery shopping but so worth it. Ate tom yum soup! Though there wasn't enough chilli i thought. Well, its the thought that counts right?? LOL!

After that HUGE feast, i went out walking alot. Found an old cemetry. Pics shall be uploaded soon cuz i forgot to put it in my com.

Sch started today. My goodness, I prefer the morning session and i miss my old class and all of the students!! Rui, scott, susanna, NOT SUMINA AND RENEE. Hmm... Chiajeng, Shin yi, Nina and Everyone else!!!! AHH! I even miss the teacher Julie and Melanie. :( Its so different and there r so many CHINA students. One of them looked so sour. Her face was scowling all the way... URGH! Well, less time for internet i guess since school ends at 6!!!!!! Ahhh, i like to be in the morning class again even if it means waking up earlier to prepare breakfast.

Ok! Managed to summerise alot huh! Til next time!

XOXO

More holidays

2010-01-24T03:53:00.000+08:00

Ok, so i know that i've only posted 1 detail of my trip BUT i promise i'll post more soon.. its just that i'm so lazy to do it.. and tmr, i have a ski trip with the school!!! The skis are so damn heavy.

Well, gotta wake up early tmr. Bye!

Day 1

2010-01-15T00:36:00.012+08:00

Well we have to start somewhere so let me recount the first day leaving for italy!

Ok, so i was up at 4a.m and i had to take the bus to the airport which was supposed to leave at 5.25am as my flight was at 7. I was out the door by 5 and i literally ran all the way the the station. When i reached there the BUS HADN'T ARRIVED!!!!!!

I was panicking so much and i kept thinking if i was gonna miss my flight when 5mins later the bus came!! But when i reached the airport, the idiotic station was in the basement and it was 6.50a.m!!! There was a long queue and i had to wait for my turn. When the thing went through the x-ray, they threw away my brand new bottle of shampoo and toothpaste!!!

HOW ANNOYING ARE THESE AIRLINES?!!?!? Its not like i'm gonna bomb anything!!!!!! Stupid terrorists had to ruin everything.

So thankfully i managed to get on the pplane and i reached rome on time :D Then i had to try to find a way to get to Legends hostel. I found a bus that took me to the station and i had to take the metro which only costs 2.20 euros! Cheap! Then when i reached the hostel my friend didn't pick up her phone so i decided to go with this china girl i met earlier. We decided to go together since her friend wasn't picking up her phone either. So after getting a few essentials, we went out exploring!!!

At the train station!

20 mins observing this backside.

No baby jesus. Why? CUZ I SAID SO. Jkjkjk!!!

Recognize this?!?!? From Da vinci code!

Then returned back to the hostel where i met with Hanh and we went out at night to explore!!! Too bad the weather was so damn crappy and it kept raining!!!

At the spanish steps!

Oh god, reaching the top was painful...

I made my wish!

Me and Hanh in front of trevvi fountain!

We thought someone important was coming out. Turned out it was no one... -___-''

OH MON DIEU!

2010-01-09T01:49:00.002+08:00

Sigh.. so many photos and so much stories to convey! It feels like eons ago since i left for italy and now that i'm back... the thought of posting up the pics is just so tiresome. Plus the internet is feeling like shit so everything is so slow.

Some highlights of the trip are:
- my Christmas eve mass in the Vatican city with the POPE!
- All the people i've met in the hostel
- The different FOOD in each state...
- the places i've been (duh!)
- learning new words!!!

Hahaha!! That almost covers everything i guess... There is a huge snowstorm now.. Feels so horrible to walk on the street cuz of the wind and snow.... Its COLD! Well, on another note its the annual europe SALE!!! The sale items are so awesome! Esp H&M and Zara... They have like 80% off stuff and its SUPER CHEAP!!! A shirt can cost less than 5 euros!!!!!!! AHH!H!!! Must learn to control..... CONTROL!!!

The problem

2009-12-15T22:00:00.002+08:00

Right now the weather has hit a new low.. its -1 degrees c and it could go down to -10 on sat. Crap. The WORSE part is the wind. Damn fucking wind makes everything seem colder.

Now i know why angmohs who live in cold countries like the heat.

I miss the warmth of home!!!!!!!!

Guess what!

2009-12-15T01:12:00.001+08:00

My friends and I decided to go out to a bar at night when all of a sudden this guy comes up to us and asks us if he could treat us to some champagne. Of course we said yes and we went to the bar where he treated us to 4 bottles of Moet and Chadon where each bottle costs 89++ euros a pop! Omg.. we were damn surprised la but we just kept drinking. I only drank 1 and a half glass cuz A) I hate to drink and B) I'm VERY weary of people. So when i first said no he kept insisting that i drink and finally i caved in and he got me and my friends glasses.

Well, that's all. I'm now planning for my trip to italy!! I can't wait!!

AHH!!! Wah eh chiu ah!

2009-12-11T22:15:00.003+08:00

San ku ku ah!

Luke, wah si lin lao peh..

Bo ko leng, bo ko leng, wa lau peh si liao!!!!!!!!!!

(sorry if i spelt it wrong but it was damn funny!!!!!!!!!!!)

Fête des Lumières!! One of the most amazing shows EVER!

2009-12-08T00:14:00.009+08:00

Fête des Lumières. One of the greatest art/light shows ever. Nothing like this has ever been seen in singapore. Well, it could be and that i don't know but it is so amazing!! The sound accompanied by the music.. Truly you have to be there to witness it. Plus on the sunday, there was fireworks!!!

The ferris wheel

A tightrope act!

We waited in vain for the fireworks on the 5th

It was REALLY crowded

The light show on the church!

The green man.

Me and therese sat on the ferris wheel... Its high and COLD!

The fireworks!

This was by far the best and the most interesting

My first french chocolate crepe!

Inside the parliament building

Hello my green man!

That's all!

its been a while

2009-12-04T23:00:00.000+08:00

well, i've been busy planning for tons of stuff...

There is the lumiere festival coming up and needless to say i'm gonna go :)

Then there's christmas which i can't go home for since my holiday's for 2 weeks only so i've decided to go to italy!!! Where?? Maybe Rome and Venice!! Need to plan for either bus or plane, then hotel and so on.

Next is the accomodation.. I WANT TO MOVE! And soon.. hopefully they find a place soon.

What else? Well, lessons of course. And i had my medical checkup today for my visa. I'm fine except i need to lose 15kg more to be an ideal weight. OMG... 15 KG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, i'm eating more veggies, less carbs and chocolate + all that sweet drinks have to go. WATER WATER WATER!!!

Urgh, i hate a diet.

i'm aching all over

2009-11-23T22:46:00.003+08:00

My gawd. I jogged with maria and i feel like shit. My whole body is aching. I did 5 sit ups and my stomach HURTS. IT HURTS to walk up/ down/ straight, hurts to laugh, hurts to cough/sneeze. Basically it hurts to move. But other than that i'm so happy that when i jog here i hardly break into a sweat while if i'm back home and tried to jog, i would have lost 10 buckets of water. I found out that my medical check-up is on the 4th dec... Its for my card and i'm scared. I've been eating lots of rubbish lately like alot of instant mee. Its no good but its tastes AWESOME. Ok, i'm gonna go on a fruit and veggie diet starting tmr. Chicken once a week. Fruits when i'm hungry. Jogging every week. SET! I'm starting....... i think i'll start next week.

Oh yes, I went out to another party thrown by nathan's friends. They're a nice bunch, they threw a thanksgiving party and we had alot of fun... Well, we made quite a mess throwing candy and baguettes at each other. But then again, it wasn't our house!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!
Met alot of interesting ppl. Pics to come soon!!!

Hmm... what else?? Oh yeah, i went to do laundry and after that, i wanted to withdraw money when the stupid machine CONFISCATED MY CARD!!!!! I panicked and called my friend.. i was shouting on the phone like :" SHIT! WHAT THE HELL DO I DO?!?!?! WHAT NOW??!! I HAVE NO MONEY!!! THE STUPID MACHINE TOOK MY CARD!!"

Yeah i panicked badly then she said to calm down and to wait for the bank to open the next day. Well, i got my card today and i asked if there was anything i did wrong that made the machine eat my card and the guy said tt it was the machine's fault not mine. I knew it!!! Hehee...

Crap, i feel hungry now!

old is gold

2009-11-21T00:06:00.002+08:00

Speaking of which the internet is screwed up again or there is something wrong with the computer here. I want to eat something cooked from home. For example, a steaming plate of char kuay tiao or even carrot cake! I know i've been complaining alot of food but seriously... croissants or baguettes. My teeth are starting to fall out. The damn baguettes are so damn tough. Also, i'm sick of cakes and sick of pastries. Well, cakes not so much because they r damn GOOD but still.. can't have too much of a good thing.

I'm bored 90% of the time which leaves me time to a) watch movies or b) cook stuff. So far i've managed to cook up some pretty good stuff!! Like i cooked potatoes with chilli. Damn tasty! Esp if put in the refrigerator and eaten with cabbage. AMAZING. And my parents had sent me curry which i've used with baguettes. It wasn't too bad. Well, ok, i didn't cook that. I have pork floss!!! Eaten with bread is like damn good! Which reminds me i should eat more veggies. I'm thinking broccoli but i'm LAZY to cook. I esp hate to chop the garlic. My goodness, my hands are so smelly from chopping so much garlic and onions. I tried to find a blender but unfortunately none was available. Why? Because there were NO blenders.

Great, i feel like i'm babbling. I'm not really paying attention to what i type. Think my brain just died. Eartha Kitt ROCKS!

By the way, you know tt they don't sell any peanut butter here??? I'm serious, i tried finding in carrefour(in french it means "intersection") and i can't find it!! Tried all the stores and whatnot but i still couldn't find anything. Well, considering how much i hate it i guess that's good. But they sell tons of nutella. You can't go down the street without seeing a jar of nutella. Bad news is that I keep eating it out of the jar. All that chocolaty gooey-ness!! YUM!

Its also annoying that i have to apply moisturizer every single night. ITS SO TROUBLESOME!

Sorry if the post is narcissistic. My brain's half dead. ITS A FRIDAY!

Pictures!!

2009-11-20T01:10:00.003+08:00

I finally have the pics from when i went out!! How exciting is that?!?!

But first, the weather is finally cold again!! YAY! When i woke up yesterday morning, i did my usual touch test but the window was the usual until i came out and it was really cold!!! Hahaha!! Finally the ups and the downs are gone.

Another thing is that since i'll be staying here for christmas, i might be going on a skiing trip to the Alps with my friends!! How COOL is that?!?! Also, it might be snowing too so fingers crossed that I'll be able to see snow!!!!!!!!!! WHAHAHHAHAHAHHA!!! Okok, i shouldn't get too excited but I CAN'T HELP IT! ITS SNOW!! SNOW SNOW SNOW!!! Or as they call it it france.. NEIGE NEIGE NIEGE!!!!!

And now pics!

Walking towards the outdoor cafe

See how hard we're studying?

And for fun we decided to play a game with numbers. Something like bingo...

And guess what??

BINGO!!! I WON!!!

And remember that class trip where we walked around the whole lyon?? My feet were hurting after that.

Out of school, eating what else but baguettes!

Walking uphill is a CHORE

Class Pic

In front of Cathedral St Jean... Our formal Class pic.

Ahh yes, there was a football match and i think france won cuz the people were noisy and celebrating like mad. They even had a bloody bonfire and screaming til the early morning... Here are some pics...

From what I've heard no one was hurt... Thank goodness its over. Can you imagine what would happen if france lost??!? I think riots everywhere... urgh!

My creaky house

2009-11-18T00:43:00.002+08:00

My house has alot of squeaky places. For example, i am now able to tell if the squeaks are coming from within the hse or above me. Its annoying and sometimes creepy but now i'm getting used to it. For example, last sat there was a party above and i think it was some dance party cuz the floor kept going "thump thump thump..." until one something. Speaking of which, i went to bed at 11. How pathetic is that?!!? Seriously right?? Blame HER.

Today for class we went on a tour around lyon and now my feet hurt. ALOT. And i went out grocery shopping. So now my arms, feet and elbows hurt. The tour was pretty fun cuz we went as a whole class. We got to see the different houses and how the courtyards were built. Its amazing!

Oh yes, the weather recently has been like shit. Its been hot like abt 20 degrees hot. But now there is a really strong wind. How weird that the weather temp has been yo-yoing up and down recently. You know what? I think its global warming. Blame the idiots who dun recycle la!! Bloody assholes.

Hmm, not much mood to blog lately. We'll see for tmr :)

I just prepared an awesome meal but it took me 2 hrs.

2009-11-14T00:06:00.006+08:00

I ran out of quotes for titles.

Ok, before i go on i have to say what happened to me just now. After school i went home and i wanted to open the door but i found the key couldn't turn. I kept trying to turn the damn key but the stupid door wouldn't budge. It was after 10 mins of trying to open the door i realized i was on the wrong floor. I'm telling you all the doors look alike. URGH.

Today is actually quite a warm day. I was sweating when i came up the stairs which is unusual for this weather cuz its still supposed to be automne and winter starts in dec 20th to abt feb? I guess but its seriously warm today. Maybe global warming is starting to affect us worse then before.

And now, pics of that FATEFUL day...

Slippers in the douche area.

Much liquor was drunk. Not much by me.

But by therese who was drunk. She kept puking and talking nonsense.

Having a little fun :)

Me and CJ thought we could share 5kg worth of potatoes cuz it only cost us 1.39 euros. Pretty cheap so we bought it. The shopping center was quite a distance away and we had to stop a couple of times to catch our breath as it was so freakin heavy. We also bought chicken, onions and i bought 6 packets of lychee drinks. It was SOOO HEAVY. Esp the 5 kg potato sack. When we almost reached my hse we were sweating so much and it was a cold day too! We poured out all the potatoes and divided it between ourselves.

And a day at the park. It was a national holiday so we decided to go to the park. When we stepped out of the metro we were utterly lost. Thank goodness we found a mother and her son who helped us alot by guiding us there. No asking hei ren!!!

I love the colour of the leaves in fall.

FINALLY! The end.

The things that i notice....

2009-11-12T21:31:00.002+08:00

I notice alot of people telling me that if i'm lost, never ask a "hei" ren for directions. Vanessa, cj, my parents all tell me this. I guess the stereotype is there.. Like my friend told me in london, the hei ren there are alot more violent and outrageous. In america they are the same way as well as for france, maybe not so much but they can get scary esp at night when they suddenly pop out of nowhere. Thank goodness they like to wear bright colours. There are more in paris compared to lyon though...

Just kidding... or am i? HEHE! You'll never know!!

Ok, another change is that i seem to be craving for alot of chocolate. REALLY REALLY CRAVE FOR CHOCOLATE. No idea why. Maybe its winter?? Guess the cold makes me crave chocolate.

Also, i THINK i lost weight. Can't be sure cuz i've been eating alot lately. Like constant craving for food. And i have food dreams. AHHH!!! Food dreams!!! Oh yes, i've also been eating alot of burgers. There is a stall in Bellcour square that sells this delicious double patty 3 slice cheese burger and its only 3.50 euro!!! Freakin' Cheap!! They have fries too so its worth it. YUMMMM!! Had that 2 days in a row. I know its unhealthy but its just so damn GOOD!! URGH!!! I miss meat.

Ahh, i better stop eating so much... i might balloon instead of getting skinnier.

Another day out

2009-11-10T00:08:00.002+08:00

My class threw another party. This time it was potluck and i decided to cook chicken rice :) Not good was that i used alot of chicken rice solution. But it reminded me of home. Oh yes, my package from Singapore arrived on friday so i had a world of a time opening the package filled with goodies from singapore. I have a HUGE amount of instant noodles now. And of course my AWESOME rice cooker which i can't live without. Yes, back to the party... I went with my good friends chia jeng, shin yi the tawainese girls and of course therese the swedish girls. We thought there would be more people coming to this soiree but infortunately, there was only 6 of us. 2 guys from boston and the host himself. We ate and drank until like 10p.m when the boston guys left. So that's when we decided to play a drinking game where we had to line up and flip the cup upside down. Its a long story and i sucked at it.

Ok, then we decided to go out to a boat bar. Its literally a bar in a boat. Therese was so drunk she kept throwing up so we left her at Nathan's house. While walking into the bar i slipped and fell cuz the floor was so damn wet. SO MALU!!!!!!!!

In the bar i was trying to find my phone and when i couldn't find it i kept panicking so i asked nathan if we could go back to his place to get my phone.. He said alright and we went back. But keep in mind me and shin yi didn't drink and Nathan and CJ had 2 shots each of some really strong banana alcohol so CJ was a drunk and Nathan was a little tipsy.

While walking back we saw this black man hitting a girl. Probably his gf or something. Then nathan yells at him: "WTF MAN?!?! DON'T FUCKING HIT HER!!" And CJ also goes and drags the woman away from the man yelling at the man :" DON'T YOU FUCKING TOUCH HER YOU ASSHOLE!! GET THE HELL AWAY FROM HER!" She tries to drag her away from the man but the man keeps telling us to mind our own business in french. But of course Nathan is not having it and continues yelling at the man and pushing him away from the girl shouting at him to stay away from the girl while CJ is yelling at the man too and asking the girl if she was alright because she was bleeding quite badly. Her face was seriously battered. The man is a fucking asshole. So as they were shouting at the man he decides to get violent and grabs back the woman and starts to CHOKE her. Like WTF right?!?!

Nathan pushes him away and throws several punches. and CJ also grabs the woman away and starts to kick and punch the man. That ass wasn't happy of course and you know what? He kicks CJ in the stomach. He KICKED a WOMAN IN THE STOMACH. He also punched and kicked Nathan until nathan fell. I was quite scared for my friends because he physically assaulted them so i stepped in and screamed at the guy to get the fuck away from them. The worse part was that there was a bunch of guys standing at the side watching. They weren't doing anything to stop him. Then CJ was telling the woman to get as far away from the fucker as possible but she just said it was ok, thanked her, got into the car with him and they drove off.

SHE GOT INTO THE CAR WITH THE MAN WHO BEAT HER TIL SHE BLED. We were stunned like was she stupid or something??? The guys standing around was like we shouldn't have interfered and should have just let them be cuz it was between a couple. And like WTH?!?! This is abuse and we should leave it alone? Granted the guy was huge and strong but no one should stand being abused by anyone. We were quite disgruntled that after all we did the girl still had the nerve to get into the car with him. So we were bitching all the way back to nathan's place. My goodness! Thinking back it was kinda stupid of us to get involved like 1 guy and 3 girls to get involved with a man like tt. I'm just happy the guy left and we were all fine. Well, CJ's jacket wasn't... She had tt woman's bloodstains all over her jacket.

So after i collected my phone we went home and on the way home, CJ started to walk funny so i assumed she was drunk. I assumed correctly because her breath stunk and she was talking nonsense. So i held on to her as we walked towards her place cuz she was all over the place. On the road, on the bicycle tracks and very VERY close to the edge of the bridge. It was really scary so i kept a close hold on her. When she got home she had so much trouble opening the door... The funny part was that she liked to say the word :"Pfffftt" when she was drunk. Hahaha!!! That's when i decided to sleep over at her place.

So yes, its never boring in lyon. At least at night :)

Hey hey

2009-11-04T01:53:00.002+08:00

omg, how annoy is she??

Yesterday i was watching my show online (i used the sch to stream finish then watched it back home) at abt 2+ in the morning and went to bathe which in S'pore that would be normal. When i went back to use the hairdryer she came knocking on my door and said :"BLAH BLAH BLAH cannot use so late..." or something along those lines. So i thought ok fine, its late and the noise woke her. So i switched it off and continued to watch my shows online with headphones mind u. And then again at abt 3 a.m she came knocking again saying how in france all the lights are off by 12a.m latest and i shouldn't even be up so late blah blah blah.

Before this like in the past week she has also said how she is not happy the way i treat my room blah blah blah, the way i wash my clothes, the way i hang my clothes, the way I cook, the way i clean the way EVERY SINGLE MOTHERFUCKING THING.

"Je ne content pas.................." is probably her favourite words to say to me and its only been 1 month. (means i'm not happy)

OOH, and the cherry on top? Is that today went i went for class, halfway i forgot something and came back to find her COMING OUT OF MY ROOM. HOW MUCH OF AN INVASION OF PRIVACY IS THAT?!?!? She told me that i shouldn't treat my room like a hotel room and something along that line. Plus she said something about she LET me stay in cuz i was sick and something about i shouldn't do something else.... Honestly i pay rent which SHE says covers electricity, heat and everything else. So what else do u want from me huh.. I bet if i pay more she still won't shut up. I want to shout and tell her to mind her own fucking business but i'm way to nice to even suggest that.

I want to move out. Seriously fucking annoying. My only refuge is school. But on weekends i have no choice. URGH. HATE HATE HATE IT.

My Halloween

2009-11-01T18:21:00.002+08:00

Guess how my halloween went!!!

Time: 10am - 1a.m
Location: My house (my room to be exact)
What I went as: Myself (sick version)

I gave myself a good scare by looking in the mirror.

I took the medicine..

2009-10-30T21:27:00.004+08:00

And now my eyes have swelled up. I have to resort to going out in public with shades cuz i look that horrible. Oh yes, plus when i called the doctor, he said it was ok that it should clear up within 2 to 3 days.

Did i mention he was on leave?? YEAH. Lazy people. Apparently this holiday is for EVERYONE. So not only are the shops closed but so are all the schools, doctors, blah BLAH BLAH. LAZY LAZY LAZY LAZY.

I feel like punching someone in the face right now.

Guess who!

2009-10-28T23:10:00.002+08:00

Can you guess this "celebrity"??

Ps: She has a famous disney sister who has recently shut down her twitter, was criticized for dressing too slutty... Any ideas??

Meet miley's little 9yr old sister Noah Cyrus

My goodness!!!

Feels like shit...

2009-10-27T22:00:00.000+08:00

I woke up today feeling like crap. I think i might have had a fever last night cuz i was shivering from the cold at one point and then sweating from the heat. Well, the important thing is that i feel better right now thanks to strepsils and panadol. Then as i was using the computer my landlady came in and said some stuff i didn't understand AT ALL. Something about a heater and washing laundry?? And she said something abt being cold or who knows what. So i was like mhmm yeah, yeah ok when i didn't even understand a word she said.

Well, i feel exhuasted. And i'm starting to hate onions. I chopped some onions and the smell is still on my fingers.. Yuck. Oh yes, i'm trying to change my internet connection thingy. The key sucks and i can hardly watch anything online. URGH. I miss home :(

So today i went walking around cuz as usual, its boring at home when i saw the most delicious kebab store... But the damn thing costs 15 euros!! Since i din want to malu myself, i decided to order fries instead. My first meal for the day! Delicious! Its been a long time since i ate some good fries.

Alright, now its time to tell the story of my first clubbing experience in france. Apparently everyone loves to smoke, club and drink. My classmates decided to have a small get together but only 5 of us showed up. It was me(Singaporean), Therese(Swedish), maria emilia(Equatorienne), Nathan(Canadian) & Chia jeng(Taiwanese). Plus they were all party people. We went to the pub called Migrane and drank some beer before heading off to try and find a club. So we walked around old lyon looking for one when I ran into the most number of drunk people i've ever seen in my life. There was this girl who was so drunk she couldn't even stand and her boyfriend had to support her as she kept falling over. Plus her skirt was so short and she wore a thong. As you can imagine, the whole bunch of us saw A LOT of her. Too much. Luckily she was quite pretty so it was a treat for nathan... HAHA!! ok moving on.

Outside a liquor store

The cobblestone street of HELL. My feet are still hurting.

We finally found a club where it was underground and it was really really crowded. They were playing a mix of french and english songs. The club was so crowded that whenever someone wanted to walk past us we had to pause then continue dancing.

While taking a photo this guy pops up

After the club we were approached by a bunch of guys inviting us to a Halloween party that was gonna happen on a thursday which i shall not go cuz of my horrible throat... And guess what?? My friend got asked for her no.!! Haha, chia jeng took many many photos of their little encounter.

So while walking around trying to get back home, being a little drunk/high, chia jeng decides to hop onto a boat and dances with the owner.

Her romantic slow dance

Nathan decides to be a fixture on the wall

Therese likes canal water

Hanging out

As you can see.. D-R-U-N-K

While walking back.. an amazing view!

While we were sitting around outside chia jeng's apartment, nathan decides he's hungry for marijuana.. So he keeps approaching several people on the street for it and those people don't exactly look like your average neighbors. Some of them even looked menacing and were shouting something in french which i guess was quite rude cuz some of the people's faces on the street looked shocked. We tried to warn him to not go round asking every tom, dick or harry cuz honestly, it was pretty dangerous. After a while he finally conceded defeat and left the subject alone... When were finally done, it was abt 6am so i went back home and took a WARM bath and fell asleep. Ahh!!

Night :)

The vacation is coming

2009-10-23T02:20:00.006+08:00

Oh dear, I have my 1 week vacation coming up soon and i don't what to do but to hole myself up in the house and rot. Btw, i told my friend i would rot to death n she didn't understand me so the joke was lost when i was trying to describe what was rot. In the end i gave up and said i would die within the week, she then asked me why. That's when i stopped making jokes around her.

So today i went to ikea with my friend chia jeng and we found a gold mine!! At least for fat/pregnant people... There was this store called Kiabi where they sold clothes at a MUCH cheaper price than the stores.. I think i might buy something there next time :D And then we went to ikea to shop for her stuff. When we were done which was abt 6+, the stupid weather had to rain! We walked towards the tramway really quickly trying to avoid the rain. Thank goodness the tram came quickly...

Today i managed to cook the most delicious spaghetti carbonara!! I'm a genius!! The onions were the main ingredients and just add some ham and sausages and voila! A delicious dish is born! While chopping the onions i started to cry.. The smell was so damn strong that my eyes started to water immediately! Deliciously strong! Any good asian dish needs onions and chili don't you agree?

Oh and Baguettes cannot be kept for more than 3 days or it will harden. OH YES!! Never put baguettes in a microwave oven!!!! Being the smart ass that I am i thought the heat would soften the bread so i put it on high heat and left it in the microwave oven to toast. When i came back from the toilet the microwave oven was smoking and i panicked! I stopped the thing and opened the door... My goodness, the smell was so horrible! The bread was burnt beyond repair and it was harder than ever so i threw it away. My landlady happened to be in and she rushed to the room to find out what happened. I opened the window and used the magazine to circulate the air within the room. My goodness.. the entire house smelled of charred baguettes... I was fanning the magazine throughout the day trying to get rid of the smell... That happened last week and i can still smell traces of the burnt smell.

More photos from Paris:

Your average typical fruit stand

As you can probably tell... I'm jet-lagged

My father likes to take unusually close shots

A typical meal in france consists of a main dish, a dessert, a soft drink and a coffee.

WAHAHAHAHHAA!!! YOU WILL ONLY SEE THIS HERE!!!

Its been a long day

2009-10-20T23:13:00.003+08:00

Time for an update!

On sat i went out to my friend's hse and me and therese left quite late so when we reached there it was 11 and cold. a BIG no-no. We played cards and talked until 4 am which was when they decided to sleep. As i couldn't sleep i decided to revise my french. YES I AM THAT HARDWORKING.

So after a while i decided to switch off the light and try to sleep. Please keep in mind i was wearing jeans, shirt, sweater and my outer leather jacket and socks with a thick blanket pulled over me and i still felt so cold. Oh yes, i forgot to mention i was also wearing gloves and tt the hse had no heater... Well after 2 hrs drifting in and out of sleep, i couldn't take it anymore and ran, Yes, RAN towards the Metro as quick as i could and went home to take a hot shower and sleep in my own bed. My own landlady thought i was sick or something.. hahaha!! Obviously she didn't know i came back at 7+.

And that concludes the most horrendous experience I ever had here. Not including the noodles that i'm eating right now. Never buy ang moh instant noodles. Tastes like crap.

BRRRR

2009-10-15T21:40:00.006+08:00

Shit that's cold.

Yeah, the weather is getting too damn cold. Outside its pretty bad cuz not only is the temp like shit, but the wind is damn fucking strong and we're all like grrrr.... My classmates n I went out to walk ard and it was sooo cold tt i started shivering. Also, on the way to sch i was eating an apple but it was SO COLD that my hands were shaking. Plus whenever i bit into the apple the juice flowed out and fell onto my fingers which made it even worse. My hands were stinging with the cold when i reached the sch even though the sch wasn't far. Less than 3mins out in the cold and my hands & face were so cold. Sigh... in s'pore complain hot, now come here, its too cold. I'M NEVER HAPPY. LOL. ok, starting to sound emo... back to what i was saying... ANYWAYS, the heater has officially been switched on! YAY!!! Never thought i'd be so happy saying that.

Alrighty i got my phone and my internet up but the internet doesn't allow skype so looks like i have to rely on the old connection again. But i've been going to class at 8.30a.m everyday like a good little girl and its tiring. Dunno why i can't sleep at night. I always sleep at 2a.m and when i reach sch i keep yawning. but on a happier note, i finally found carrefour and its HUGE! And its cheaper too... THANK GOODNESS. Luckily for me i can take the tram and its near to the hse. Well, actually its nt all that near but near enough. I saw several sales and i managed to resist!! A huge accomplishment!! Hahaha, well, class was tiring enough.

Today we had a new teacher and his name was matteau. Strange that i dun like him tt much. Well, we covered all the basics AGAIN, and when we were introducing ourselves AGAIN, he went round the room and when it came to me he cut me off!!! Then when he finished explaining the words and what it meant he went back to the other side of the room and i was last to intro. Also, when we were saying where we were from (countries), he made a face and shouted "UHHHHH" when some ppl mentioned their countries. For example, in french, everything is either a man or a female and for countries there are exceptions for example, Singapore, Taiwan, Cuba and so on have no proper term like a la or le so its just THAT. When I mentioned S'pore he made a face and said its Bizzare. I get that he was joking but i dun care. He's an insensitive prick who deserves a tight slap. He made a face when the other people mentioned other countries like taiwan, thailand and some others too. HE IS AN ASSHOLE. ASS. Out of all the classes, i like this the least. :( But other than tt everything else is fine.

So far i've met americans, Spaniards, chinese, taiwanese, Venezuelan, Brazilians, canadians, Thai, Koreans, japanese but NONE ARE SINGAPOREANS. CRAP. I think i might be the only singaporean there.... Well, i've yet to explore the other classes but judging by the looks of it i might be the only one from singapore. Ah well, what to do??

And finally, some pics!!

My room

Its pretty big

Welcome to the room with the best connection

And its near the river!

My pretty landlady!

I was bored....

Walking across the bridge

An ancient roman theatre. On top of the hill

Ok, really tired now.... bye!

More details?

2009-10-12T21:20:00.001+08:00

Now i have nothing to do... Its really boring and i have nothing else to do but to blog and post pics. Even that's hard because the internet here sucks. But now that i've found the perfect location to use the internet. Right now i've been watching movies frm my HD :)

Well, I started sch today and wow was it cold... I was a little late to get up but when i finally did i realized i was late and RAN to the sch. Thank goodness it was only nearby.. PHEW! And typical french style, being late didn't matter at all because by the time we went to class it was abt 9+ when we were supposed to start at 8.30.

And sch was a killer! Literally. My class was ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP. AHHH! As if it wasn't bad enough that my apartment lift was not working, i had to climb all the way to the top to reach the class... The teacher taught us in french, luckily i took some french if not i would have been completely lost... After introductions, we went ard the sch to familiarize ourselves with the place which meant MORE STEPS. So going here and going there, when we went back to class you could hear the whole room panting out loud cuz it was so tiring. Only the teacher looked fine.

Time passed by pretty quickly and i was hungry so me and this Swedish girl decided to go out for lunch nearby. While we were at the cafe, we saw this spanish girl who claimed to be sick and wanted to go home. When we saw her, she looked fine to me... *rolls eyes Whatever, her loss. And since we had time to spare we walked around and decided to see the church on the hill which meant, MORE WALKING. URGH... I'm getting pretty sick of steps.

And so for now i'm finally back home... tmr is another day of sch. AT 8.30AM!!!!!!

Finally!! Internet!!!

2009-10-11T03:44:00.002+08:00

Phew, finally managed to get good internet! Hopefully when i've installed my box/modem it'll get better and i can use it in my room.

Right now i have to use my laptop in the room opp mine and my landlady doesn't like me to switch on all the lights. Understandable but i'm not switching on EVERYTHING... its just 2 more lights. I guess its still a waste but its dark and i can hear people walking on the floor above me :(

Ok, lyon after a while i guess i can get used to it... though i miss s'pore food terribly. Nothing much to do here though. Its mostly shopping and i don't quite like to go out so late cuz the streets will be damn empty. Plus the internet here sucks as mentioned above, so NO PHOTOS yet.

Sch starts on the 12th and i start at 8.30a.m. GROAN! Waking up is the hardest thing to do... So far i've only managed to meet 1 friend and is this spanish girl called Cecilia. Its damn funny seeing us trying to converse with each other cuz her eng is so limited and we have to keep gesturing with our hands. She has said that i talk too fast for her so we'll see how it goes when we've had more practice with our french!!

I also went to milan with my father... more on that soon.

KK, gotta go now, i shall update more tmr cuz as usual, i'll be home the entire day. LYON IS BORING.

Feels weird

2009-10-01T02:02:00.001+08:00

I have the sudden urge to go home and drop everything. I really miss Singapore. The security, the places, the FRIENDS. I'm already sick of the food. Seriously. Everything and everyone here speaks french and i feel so excluded. If its in english and i can understand then that would be good. But everything here is so complicated. Thank goodness my father is with me or i think i would be lost and start crying non-stop.

Sigh, i guess it will take a while to get used to it. Meanwhile, i shall BEAR with it. ok bye.

PARIS I LOVE YOU...

2009-09-30T04:21:00.002+08:00

In paris right now and will upload more photos ltr.

Reaching paris i had to lug my bag all the way down to the subway station and let me tell u, the subway has NO aircon. So while i was sweating and puffing my way down, i felt so tired and jet lagged. Anyways my bag was super heavy!! All or most of the subways have no escalators but just stairs so my poor father was lugging the bag away up and down and i felt so sorry for him.

Today was really tiring cuz we were walking all over paris with our heavy luggage in tow. When we finally got to our room, we dumped our bags and immediately went walking all ard exploring Paris and the underground subway.

Ok, now i'm getting tired, I shall explain more when i've reached lyon.

Au revoir!

Waiting Game

2009-09-29T10:51:00.003+08:00

Hi all! I'm in the dubai airport waiting for my connecting flight to paris.

SO far the flight has been like shit.

The seats were so close together, there was hardly any space to maneuver around, there was a crying AND screaming baby on board and throughout the 7hr journey i only slept for 1hr or less. You can imaging how i'm feeling right now....

I see quite a mix of people... but there are quite a few china people here too... :( Might be a good thing or a bad thing i don't know but whatever right??

Sigh, i just want to sleep on my old bed again.

RP... a colossal waste of time.

2009-09-27T01:05:00.002+08:00

Leaving soon and as i was checking through the websites for french universities i realized something really really important.

That the 3 yrs in RP was a complete waste of my time.

That shit sch taught me nothing but how to slack the entire time i was there. While i could be learning so much more overseas or doing something else with my life, i had to waste it in RP.

Granted my grades weren't good enough and true i ought to have thought my options through but honestly?? I really regret going to RP.

There you have it folks. My biggest regret.

Actually i had some fun times and without rp i would never have met awesome lizzy who throughout the 3 yrs there made my life sort of bearable. As for education wise?? SUCKED BALLS.

Some other things i regret in my life? Nahh.. that's about it.

But the one thing i will miss the most when i leave is the lifestyle i had here.

Shopping, eating at your convenience. No hassle. Singapore is small and safe while i'm going out to the big unknown....

Ok, so i'll be leaving on the 29th Sept 1a.m +++ and yes, Good bye singapore!! I'll really really miss you!!!!

F1 fever!

2009-09-25T22:49:00.006+08:00

YAY! F1 is here and i didn't know it could be so exciting!! Hahaha, from my office window i can see clearly when the cars turn the junction. And the noise?? It was so loud. But it was even louder when they started using the real F1 cars. hohoho!!! Also while walking down to the bus stop i had to walk past the tracks and it was really really loud. Too bad they covered the walkway though... i would have loved to see the cars.

Anywhoo, i have a new cam and recently i've been bringing it ard to capture as many shots as i can before i leave singapore!! And on another note... IT WAS MY LAST DAY TODAY!!! Woohoo!!! Fantastic!! And to add a cherry on top more than half of the office ppl didn't come in today and most left after lunch. Of course there was the odd man out who came in late and had to spoil everything but other than that... today was a good day :D

And now... some pics!~

First pic ever taken with my camera!

Office view again!

Met up with denyse and melly at the airport! Me and denyse ate so much cuz we wanted to spend our money's worth.

This was AFTER dessert.

Roly poly bus buddies :D

When mel decided to join us.

Our halos

This shot was taken in the morning. I was wondering why it was raining so heavily and there was still a bright sunlight streaming through my window. That was before the clouds covered it though. This was also the day when i discovered they had closed off the bus routes and i had to stop at the NTUC income center and walk all the way to suntec. In the rain no less.

Thanks to Hardiana for treating me to this wonderful soup!! THE BEST!

Then later on went to Newton Hawker center to have supper with sheena! We ate so much our stomachs were abt to burst. Plus not forgetting the meal was quite expensive!! Stupid seafood costs so much!! They are out to cheat everyone with their prices.

Met up with jiaz.

And as promised the views of the cars racing!!!

Nice right?? I wish i could go...

The countdown

2009-09-24T01:04:00.002+08:00

Alrighty! I've got my passport, visa settled and now its time to pack.

The time to departure is getting closer and to be honest i really feel as though its a long way off like before. The urgency is not really getting to me but people are constantly giving me advice. So thanks to the whole lot out there esp my father who has been helping me through this difficult process.

Hopefully after i've managed to complete my french language studies there i'll be able to continue to study long term like get an masters or even an honors. I'm just happy to be studying there.

So as for right now, i've been v.v.v.v.v.v.busy preparing. People are telling me i need this and i need that... I tell them HOW TO BRING. My poor luggage will bust open if i put in all the things they want me to bring... So i have almost no time for much things cuz i'm working til this fri the 25th, then going out for lunch, dinner, til sun and on mon i'm leaving! Writing everything out puts things in perspective. I still need my medication, to pack! And i need to collect my altered clothes and some photos.... HEADACHE. Not forgetting the F1 is in town which means JAMS. Seriously shitty...

Today went to T3 to find smelly melly and we GOT CONNED. She said the corner got sockets to plug in the laptop but DON'T HAVE. SHE CONNED US!!!!! In the end went to the coffee bean to use the laptop and we chatted until 11++. Which explains why now i feel a giant urge to yawn. SLEEPY.

That's all for now and one more thing...

Fear not that this blog would turn into a french blog or whatnot. NO MATTER WHAT it will always be in english :D

Tired

2009-09-20T22:21:00.000+08:00

Today was spent shopping!!

I'll be leaving soon and there are a ton of things tt i need to do and prepare for when i leave. I feel so happy LEAVING. Finally some peace away frm home.

Ok so the entire day day was spent shopping for coats, sweaters, gloves, beanies and more. My aunt and i walked so much and my feet are now exhausted...

Thank goodness i had a filling lunch!!

The shopping shall continue tmr.....

Friends all ard the world.

2009-09-14T01:29:00.003+08:00

I've just realized something...

I have friends in Sweden, UK, Russia, Belgium, US...

Abt 20,000 of them r in australia.

And yet none in france.

My departure date is coming soon and the feeling of leaving has yet to kick in. Understandably its gonna be rough surviving and cutting back on food. Hopefully i'll get slimmer... But it has occurred to me that i might not be coming back. At least not for a long shot. And am i gonna be able to stand the winter?

Everyone has been giving me advice esp my parents which is understandable considering i'm leaving for Europe. Some advice is:

- its not cold until you feel the wind. That's when you'll freeze!!

- don't trust french men. they will say anything to get you to do what they want. Also don't trust the Nigerians cuz they will use you as a drug mule. Have you read the newspapers abt them??

- don't walk in dark alleyways. Stay alert.

- be careful how you spend your money. Don't anyhow spend.

Yup. That is the advice given to me by my parents. Then there are those given to me by friends who have flown there...

- OH, you have to go to Champ Eleyesse!! The shopping there is GREAT!

- You can get the cheap leather in europe. Super cheap!! Go to milan and buy better.

- The pasteries there are TO DIE FOR! Must buy as many as you can!!

And so on...

Great. Now i'm both super tempted and super scared.

ARE YOU HAPPY NOW!?!?!?!?!

So so tired...

2009-09-11T22:08:00.002+08:00

Well, slept at 4+ wokeup at 7 today so the entire day was spent trying not to fall alseep.

Today as usual, got someone buzzing in my ear abt work AGAIN. But nevermind. Hopefully by next week i'll be able to complete everything.

OK! I've gotten a webcam and thus, able to SKYPE!! I can skype frm france!!! HAHAHAHA JOY! Hope no one steals it!!!

And my father has gotten me a camera!!! Olympus camera with 12mega pixels so i'll be sure to post more pics.

My visa has been submitted, now all i have to do is wait!!!

Oh dear.

2009-09-09T22:51:00.002+08:00

I'm cutting it really really close.

I went down to the french embassy to submit my visa form and i still lacked 1 document so i need to submit it in tmr. GRRR... And in the morning, my supervisor pulls me into a meeting room for a discussion about my working ethics. She says i stay out at the receptionist desk too long to chat with the recept and it makes the company looks bad/unprofessional. Out of the entire day from 9-6 i sit on a chair immobile and i go out 2 times or 4 times to chat with hardiana for 5 mins and less and she said i can't do that??? She said someone complained to her about me always chatting with hardiana. What fucking bullshit. There was one time when i went out the recept area to celebrate andrea's (my co-worker) birthday and cuz hardiana was the recept we had no choice but to hold it there. Some asshole dip shit who was so free to go ard gossiping to others can tell my supervisor that i was so damn free. F******* get your f***** facts straight bitch.

And now moving on to calmer thoughts. COMMEX STARTS TMR!!!!!!!!!!! YAY! And since i have to submit my visa again in the morning, i can pop on over to commex :D Hopefully it won't be too crowded.. URGH. I want to get my MP3, an ipod this time... and i'm getting my very own camera!!!!!!! How fun is that?? Can take pics thoughout my trip in france :D Yes, must also remember to buy webcam!! Update the lonely people here abt my studies. (Namely my mother)

So i ran across this site and it is just so adorable!!! go to http://cuteoverload.com.

Here are some sample pics!

SO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TGIF

2009-09-04T23:19:00.004+08:00

Well, thank goodness its friday.. PHEW! So much work to do.. So from translating chinese names/company titles/company names, i now have to update a list... It has abt 4800+ contacts and i need to finish it by 30th Sept because...

I'M LEAVING FOR FRANCE!

And never coming back...

JUST KIDDING. Just tt it will take me a while before i can come back. As it is an intensive course, the holidays are quite short... Also, i had to fill out so many forms! For visa, for housing, for so many things. URGH. Been filling it out at work and trying desperately to find out how to fill out some of the forms as most of them are all in french. And not forgetting my acceptance letter. I found out not only do I have a written test, i have an ORAL TEST.

SHIT.

I always panic when i talk french.... OMGGG they might laugh me out of the exam hall... GREAT. MORE STRESS.....

I need to relax. Seriously. My french visa applications, school starting soon, work stress, everything is getting to me!!!!! I NEED TO THINK POSITIVE THOUGHTS!!!

MOVING ON. I have started to notice there are more and more ang mohs. Everywhere i turn i see at least one popping out. Granted i WORK at suntec in an US company, BUT STILL! Wait, is there a... NAH. OkOk, the point is, they are EVERYWHERE. And what's with some of the chinese people who try to imitate the way they speak, but fail miserably.

For example, this guy at work, my friends call him the slang man. I knew that he grew up in San Francisco. (Or so he claimed) but i find that the american accent on chinese men weird esp those who look damn cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeena. Dunno why also. To me it just seems like something's off. Well, this guy is just bad. His accent is like a heavy drawl. For example, think of those with the THICK AS BUTTER accent. hmm.... seriously, i DO NOT KNOW how to describe it. Its not Texan, or southern, its just those damn typical american accent which is thick. Thick as butter, pudding or whatever suits you. Its just thick. Which reminds me of a nice kaya toast from toastbox but MOVING ON.....

The way he talks to people makes me want to vomit bananas. Cuz his voice has that whiny pitch and he always likes to add a "Like" to his like every like other sentance. Like omg, that is like so damn awful, like I can't stand it. TOTALLY. Once he even had the nerve to stand in front of my desk hanging his monkey arms over MY cubicle and talk to the person behind me. HOW ANNOYING IS THAT?!?! He cannot go in to talk issit? And my MP3 couldn't even drown out that whiny shit so i had increase the volume.

Oh yes, my MP3 is spoilt. Its been with me for 3 yrs and it spoils now right b4 i leave?? Fantastic.

And work! Its not so bad once you get to know more people which i did! We went to this vietnam restaurant and the food was DELICIOUS. REALLY REALLY GOOD. NO JOKE. Cheryl are you reading this??

FAIL SHOT

BEST

There's so many people leaving for all the different countries!! Sigh... the girl sitting next to me is leaving for Glasgow. LUCKY LUCKY!!! And then my other friend is leaving for Boston. SIGH. EVERYONE'S LEAVING! Me and lynette decided to meet up with Kea for dinner. Little did we know she was vegetarian. HAIZ. I felt so bad cuz Kea only took the vegetables and the mushrooms. Also the egg sushi. She loved the egg sushi. She also managed to whip up her own sauce which smelt really good. So as usual we ate ALOT. Or should i say it was only me?

See the extent of our greediness...

Ahh, you can see my bowl was filled with sausages.I took so many it filled the whole bowl and I ate it all. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

My poor shirt was splattered with butter all over.. and i smelled funny. So thanks to lynette for the ride half-way home!!!! (Not being sarcastic here) Plus my pants were so tight i had to loosen the belt. Which was the exact same thing that happened to me when i went out with HJ. Should have worn what i worn then. The long flowy dress allowed me to eat as much as i want without sacrificing the need to look thin. I'm fat and happy!

Today i almost fell asleep at the desk. So to keep me awake, i decided to take some photos!

My daily ritual:

1. Get breakfast! : Could be from starbucks (I'd pop downstairs to get a bagel with cream cheese. MMMMMMMMMMMM), or i'd go to the crystal jade bake shop, or the mcdonalds, or the burger king, or the food republic's you tiao/red bean pancake, or the food court at the basement or any other food shop on the way in.

Let us pause for a moment to realise why suntec is not the best environment for me to work in.

2. Go toilet then OFF TO PANTRY TO GET MY FREE DRINKS. I'd usually get a cup with a spoon, milo packet or orange juice.

3. Go back to my cubicle to set up my laptop and plug in the stuff. Drink & eat while waiting.

4. Around 10+ (assuming i came on time, which rarely happens) I make my green tea with 1 small packet of sugar mixed with cold and hot water. Rest of the day mix green tea with cold water.

5. When i'm bored, i'll walk out to the receptionist desk area to talk with Hardiana and take my usual collection of sweets if the auntie managed to top up the sweet bowl.

I prefer to take the "good" ones. I typically take the grape, mint, strawberry, and the polo sweets. Today's one was a good haul. Took 2 full handfuls.

My cube. 'Nuff said.

Today was officially angel's last day... So i read this review in 8 days abt this new restaurant called Cafeteria. They said it wasn't bad plus it was quite affordable so we decided to head there.

My Lasagne

The deco was alright but please DO NOT EAT FROM THERE. The food was medicore, the service was lousy. The soups we had was so bad. Angel had the mushroom soup and it tasted like shit. Mine took so damn long to come. Then some staff was so rude. See the man standing up in the grey shirt behind the 2 woman in the photo?? He came to our table to take the chair and as he was pulling the chair away from us he said "Ladies can i have this chair please thank you..." He didn't even wait for an answer. HOW RUDDDDDE. My friend's bag was still on the chair and he took it and put it on the table before he even asked us if he could take the chair. Then when we ended the meal, my friend hadn't even finished drinking her water before they cleared it off. We were quite pissed at the end and decided to never go there again. Lousy service with lousy food. BLAH.

And that's all. :D

So not my day

2009-09-01T20:45:00.004+08:00

I guess now tt i'm using the com in my room again means i can blog more!

Today's not my day.

Just found out i'll be receiving abt 600 euros a mth staying there.
The school hasn't sent the official letter which means.... no visa.
Have to save up like shit.
I'M ONLY GETTING 600 EUROS DAMMIT.

Well, i found out from my friend tt her bf and her spend abt 500 while in Glasgow but tt's a diff story... though it did make me feel a little better. Although, come to think of it, money is money. I should be happy that i'm even getting to GO to france. I should slap myself for being spoilt.

Then at work...

TELEMARKETING.

I hate to do that. Plus the list was 4800+++++ names long. STUPID. I HATE THIS.

Then someone has to come and tell me i can't talk to the receptionist. I can't work OT. BLAH BLAH BLAH.

I think the only good thing is the facebook app Restaurant city.

Day then Night

2009-08-29T20:31:00.004+08:00

Hello, you've seen the office from the day, and now the night!!
I stayed late on friday to finish up the work and that's when we went around to take these amazing shots. Me and my collegue Andrea were the last 2 and we stayed until 10.30 to finish work. Some shots were taken from the bosses office which has the BEST view!!!

Nice Right?!?!?!

The fountain of wealth right below!

Then, there was the view from my window's area...

Fantastic huh!

Oh yes, the acceptance letter came. I'M GOING TO FRANCE!!!

Being rich does not give you the right to be an ASSHOLE.

2009-08-25T21:00:00.006+08:00

Helloooo. Its been a while.

Ok, since I've started to work at salesforce... Well, I LOVE IT. Free drinks, have so much more freedom, I CAN USE THE INTERNET...

So for a few days last week when i've not gotten ANY WORK, i did the usual, facebook, watched movies and then... i was bored. So i took some random photos!

As usual.. the view is EXCELLENT!!

And at the zoo. I hate it when parents think, "Oh, i'm a lawyer/doctor" and they can behave in whatever manner they want. They usually think they can get away with anything. And their kids?!?! OMG, even worse. They are spoilt rotten and honestly, some of them needs to be caned. But then again, WHATEVER. The most important point is that singaporean parents can be one of the most spoilt, dumb, and the most annoying people to deal with.

Guinea pigs all in a row.

And my french class...
One word, AWESOME. The people are really nice and friendly. Plus even though it got harder, it was still fun. So after the last class, we all went out for our last dinner... So i baked a little something and so did lynette. Hahaha, choc overkill..

Her choc cookies and my muffins!!!

The early birds :D

And finally, I'm quitting the zoo!!! This month will be the last mth... YESS!!! Finally! I've been working there for 11mths!! Now it's over! NO MORE ZOO!!!! WOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

BYE!

The fakes

2009-08-17T22:43:00.004+08:00

Ok, so i'm at my desk and bored out of my mind when i flip through my facebook. I see people that have been fake throughout and yet they are still on facebook. Hmm, why did they or did you add them in?

Best of all, why aren't they deleted?

As for me.. what for right? Afterall, sometimes the most exciting things are on fb. And its a way to keep in touch. Also, i'm too damn lazy to go through the list one by one. Not forgetting the number of "friends". I think out of all them i only have like 10 that i really talk to.

All this because I saw a photo. LOL! Too deep. In fact i should be having a discussion about something else. Like today i saw a lizzard outside my office window.

Now how is it possible for a common household lizard to get up on the 40th floor window??? Won't the lack of oxygen kill it?? GAH. Who knows?

An all round updatee :D

2009-08-15T22:41:00.004+08:00

Ok, had an awful time at the zoo today.. Sigh. I'll tell in due time but for now, I shall recount my exciting yet sorta mundane life.

Ok, so i started my job at CPF which was really really BORING.It was so boring that i actually fell asleep in the middle of a phone call... That's really BAD. Also i started eating more which made me like a big O. Yup. I should never have office jobs. Moving on, the basic thing i had to do was to call people and tell them to pay up which is like telemarketing. As you can imagine, there weren't much pleasant conversations. I only managed to last there for 3 weeks and i couldn't take it anymore. So here is a few pics of the office...

And my good friend Janice!

My class at the Alliance Francaise has been the best ever. Its so sad that it's coming to a close but during the "dark" period, (see above) this class has been the only saving grace. So i have to say a HUGE thanks to the people and THANK GOODNESS i signed up for it or I would have died.

And there was the trip to the bird park.. Too bad i only had my camera phone with me... Most pics you can see on Facebook.

It was dark. So very dark.

One of the best parts of the Bird park.. The Lory Loft. Noisy little buggers.

I really hated it when some of the guests tried to take the food from me. Even though i told them they had to buy, the still tried to take it away from me which made the birds dig their talons deeper into my flesh.... :(

Bird on Boob

"PSSSTT! Got a cracker?"

The bird show.. Fantastic!

The wonderful waterfall...

Ok, went to the ION and it was fantastic! The basement is filled with so many stores and it was the cheaper king. Everyone should look ard there once in a while.

Trying to look "cool"

Candy land!

My dream jacket... Leather!!!

Then at my new office.. Its located on the 40th floor which has the BEST view ever!!

Nice rightttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Much better than the basement.

Creatures that STINK

2009-07-26T23:08:00.002+08:00

I've noticed that my posts are words and no images which yes, i knw, its BORING right? So here are some of THE UGLIEST CREATURES!

The Naked Mole Rat

The naked mole rat could be the ugliest animal in the world. Good thing they spend most of their lives underground. These guys can hardly see and use their giant teeth and jaws to dig extensive holes in the ground. They live in colonies like bees and have one queen who is responsible for all the reproduction.

The Red-lipped Batfish

The lipstick won't help. This ugly fish has quite a pout. They are terrible swimmers and use their pectoral fins to "walk" on the ocean floor.

The Hag fish

The name suits this ugly fish. The hagfish has 4 hearts and 2 brains. Grosser still, the fish produces a large amount of slime when held or captured. The hag fish can produce 20 liters of slime in a matter of minutes.

The Coconut Crab

These crabs are huge! They are the largest land-living arthopod (animal with its skeleton on the outside) in the world. The crabs can can climb trees and are sometimes called "robber crabs" because they have a penchant for stealing shiny objects like pots and pans.

The Alligator Gar

Alligator gar is the largest freshwater fish in North America and can be as long as 8 to 10 feet. These enormous fish can survive outside the water for 2 hours

The Warthog

Warthogs get their name from four large wart-like protrusions found on their heads. Despite their appearance, Warthogs are excellent jumpers and fast runners.

The Proboscis Monkey

This endangered monkey's most unique feature is its protruding nose. The monkeys will honk to communicate with one another, the nose straightens out during each honk.

The Star Nosed Mole

A resident of the North America, this mole makes up for his poor eyesight with a hairless nose that is a "star" of 22 fleshy tentacles. The tentacles are extremely sensitive, they can even sense electricity!

The Yeti Crab

This crazy crustacean gets its name from the abominable snowman for its hairy arms. You don't have to worry about running into this crab though: they are found around 8,000 feet deep in the Pacific ocean,

The Aye-Aye

The Aye-Aye is currently an endangered species partially due to the fact many in its native Madagascar view the animal as an evil omen and kill them on the spot.

The Blobfish

This little guy looks more like a cartoon character than a fish. The Blob fish has very few muscles and move very slowly, floating like a jelly fish. To eat, the Blob fish waits on the bottom of the ocean for prey to pass by.

Something new!

2009-07-25T00:32:00.003+08:00

Hey all... guess what??

I have a new job!

Its at CPF and basically i call people and ask them to pay up. Well, its been over a week and it suxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx..............

Firstly, i have to dress up in work clothes and wear heels. HEELS. I hate to wear heels or any covered shoes for that matter. And because of the heels, my skin peeled off on one of my toe and now its too painful to wear covered shoes.

Secondly, the job itself is mind-numbingly boring... URGH. I'm SO SICK of the phone. I hate to call people now. And once, i actually fell asleep during the phone call... Also, today, this RUDE shitty employer had the nerve to hang up on me. So as revenge, i kept calling him until he picked up the phone and I slammed it down on him.

HAH.

Oh yea, in order to keep myself awake, i usually call the zoo's kidzworld to disturb the people there... HAHAHAHA!!! I think they're sick of me :D

Thirdly, I dunno if it affects all office people, or those who work in desk bound jobs, but they are LAME.

The manager asked me, "So, how do you defeat the ninja turtles?"(or something like that)

"Stand near the shredder."

Yes, that was how the joke went. I obviously don't recall it at all seeing as its so lame, but since it was the manager i just laughed. Though i was stunned for a few seconds. Another one...

Me: "Aiyah! The com jammed!"
the guy: "Then go get bread la!"

-___-'''

Quite frankly, i'm surprised my eyes haven't rolled out of its sockets from the lameness.

Fourthly... There is this guy who is a temp like me and he goes out for lunch with us and all, but he is WEIRD. Me and my friend janice find him creepy... Today all of my usual lunch kakhi's didn't come at all and it was me him and this other guy called conner to go out for lunch. And throughout lunch he kept making lame ass jokes and dunno why he kept staring at me. Which was why i avoided his gaze as much as possible. Then also he kept walking so damn close to me. The further i walk away from him he kept getting closer. So i decided to walk slower and use my HP to call my friend just so he wouldn't bug me. Then as i was walking back to the table, he asked me why i looked so sian. I wanted to say"Cuz of you." But i was too nice so i lied instead. :D

5thly, not only does this job has the weirdest/lamest people, it is LOCATED IN THE BASEMENT. The only way we are able to know if it was raining or not is through a TV SCREEN. and its only 1 small tiny screen to let us know if it is sunny or if there was a thunderstorm. How fantastic is THAT?!?!?

6thly, i can't just quit as and when i like. I have to commit for 3 months. THAT'S LONG. I CAN'T STAND 1 WEEK, WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I'LL BE ABLE TO LAST 3 MTHS?!?!?!!?

I think the only thing i look forward to is my french class. If i didn't have that I would have probably gone home everyday to cry.

French

2009-07-10T21:52:00.002+08:00

Hey, Well, so far it's been quiet lately but that's cuz i'm SO tired that i find it quite bothersome to blog. But since i'm up now so what the hey!

First off, i have been working under the sun and the horrible tan is back. It looks so disgusting... I have no idea how to cover over it so i'm going to bundle myself up.

Secondly, THANK GOODNESS for the rain! Nowadays it's not too hot isn't it?

Thirdly, the stupid zoo hasn't paid me yet!!! WTF?!?!?!? They said there was some problem with dunno what and now, i have no pay. So i'm basically broke as hell and staying at home...

And finally, YES. I've been taking french classes 2X per week. Its from 7 to 9 and before i go there i always find myself getting SO hungry. NO CLUE WHY. Even if i had stuffed myself i would STILL get hungry. It never happens at home. So i decided that before i leave, i'll get myself some soy milk to help me tide over the hunger. Luckily for me that worked :D

And then while in class i'm like the only one who finds it hot. I'm sweating bullets while the other people find it perfectly fine. Like wtf?? I'm sweating profusely and trying to wipe the sweat out of my eyes AND trying to pay attention to class... URGH. Maybe cuz i'm too fat. I need to cut down on the blubber soon!!!!!!!!!!!

After taking up french, i realize that to learn french, you have to forget EVERYTHING you ever learned about the english language. Their alphabet is pronounced differently and the phonetics?? Yeah, forget about it. Disregard everything you've learned about english from phonetics cuz its impossible to learn spelling from it. FOR EXAMPLE...

Bonjour! Je m'appelle Felicia. Je suis Singapourienne.

It means Morning, my name is felicia. I am singaporean.

How to pronounce it?

Bo/n/jo/urrrr. Jee/ma/pel Felicia. Je/sui/ Sang/ha/pou/ri/enne.

Well, something like that. Their 'y' in the alphabet is pronounced as 'i'grecque.

Uh huh. It ain't easy. After class i ALWAYS have to revise again and again and again. Hope i manage to get it right.... It's exhausting. The worst part is the nasal sounds where you have your "uh" and 'ah' and 'eh'. Its hard doing it when you have a cold like ME. I had the sniffles but had to attend class. While trying to learn the nasal sounds, snot almost came out. Thank god that happened while i was practising at home but still!!!

I'm gonna learn til i perfect my french!!!!!

Forces of Nature

2009-06-25T20:39:00.003+08:00

Here is one thing that I don't understand, why is it that when you're late there will ALWAYS be something else to make you even later than you already are???

FOR EXAMPLE:

When you realize that you're late, these several scenarios start to happen:

1) The Bus doesn't come.

2) If you want to take bus no. 77 to go to esplanade, ALL of the other buses have to come TWICE before your bus comes.

3) The Bus driver drives at a SNAIL'S PACE

4) The people who are boarding the bus start who don't know the routes would ask the bus driver annoyingly LONG AND STUPID QUESTIONS. (can't they read the fucking board????)

5) There will suddenly appear to have traffic jams at every junction.

6) All the Red lights start to come on.

7) The pedestrians start to walk EXTREMELY SLOWLY BECAUSE THEIR AIM IN LIFE IS TO TORMENT YOU.

8) There is a sudden surge of old people boarding the bus.

9) The Bus gives way to 10,000,000,000 other cars before they drive off.

And Finally,

10) Some idiot who took a fart/carried something smelly/IS SMELLY happens to be on the same bus as you. (a high possibility)

And all throughout this time all you can do is look at your watch and start counting the agonizing mins til the end.

Well, what to do in these situations??

I guess I should not have been late in the first place. Sigh...

SWAT FAIL/PEOPLE FAIL

2009-06-16T20:52:00.004+08:00

Another vid i found that's pretty funny!

SWAT Team FAIL - The most popular videos are a click away

Ok, something else i wanna talk about.

While i was working at the water area, i saw this really young boy standing next to the blue slide and was just standing there while his face was getting splashed with water. So from experience, i decided to pull him to the other side so that he won't get hit in the face while the bigger children were sliding down. Then i went to find his father and that asshole had the nerve to scold me. (BTW: they were ang moh)

That fucker had the nerve to tell me i was an idiot who didn't know anything and that as a father... quote directly "I KNOW WHAT'S BEST CUZ I'M HIS FATHER. WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?"

WHO AM I?? I WORK THERE YOU ASSHOLE. I KNOW WHAT CAN HAPPEN SO I PULLED HIM TO SAFETY. UNLIKE YOU, YOU IGNORANT ASSHOLE WHO WILL GET HIS SON INJURED, I HELP PEOPLE.

Such a dumbass. I work there for more than 10mths you think i don't know what can happen??? Stupid. Of all the people i deal with, some of the ang moh's, esp the americans are among the rudest, narcissitic, arrogant assholes that i've ever had to deal with. And guess what? I'm not the only one saying so. Everyone who has delt with a large variety of customers knows and agrees with i'm saying. They think they can come here and treat the service staff like dirt?? Who do they think they are?? American's aren't the "Ruler's of the earth". They are just PEOPLE with BIG EGOS.

Even though that was one experience(among others) which dampened my image of them, thank goodness not all of them are like that. I've met some americans who are so polite and friendly and treat us with respect. Its that small minority who think they are so godamn smart and act like jerks should be whipped until they either die or....... nevermind, death is a good punishment.

As part of the service staff, i feel that unless you are treated with respect then we will never respect you when we serve you. We might be obligated to give you good service but in our eyes, you are nothing but a worhtless piece of shit if you treat us badly.

So people, the moral of the story is, treat everyone with respect and you'll find that you receive it back. Sounds rhyme-y... And too serious.... so some pics to lighten the mood of the post!

You have to watch this.. DAMN FUNNY!!!!!!!!!

An attempt

2009-06-03T23:12:00.003+08:00

Sigh, i guess nowadays my post have become so long and a little draggy. Maybe cuz there are hardly any photos up?? Well, I've decided to post most of them now.. Even though some might be a little backdated...

These were the efforts of baking for the first time...

First.. The mixture... Pretty Good!

These were then seperated into cups

And it came out burnt

So i decided on making myself some icing...

Voila! My own cupcake!

And now, to introduce someone at work who has left us a long time ago, but will still be remembered... Ok, sounds like she died but in actual fact she was an intern and she went back to school.

AYU!

I always try to post unglam shots of her... Looks like its working!

Now take a look at the auntie trying to sort out the boxes of ponchos...

LOL!

Graduation: A really bittersweet moment when you think about it. After all, you are leaving a place after 3 long years. Well, for me, it was both sad and happy. I guess cuz you make some friends there and i can't really say that the entire time i spent there was BAD.. There were some good times too and i did manage to learn A FEW things. So i guess i could say that although i pretty much hated the 99% of time i spent there, its the 1% that i shall miss the most.

The ceremony was BORING. There was a talk by the principal and the guest of honour. AND on top of that, the STA batch was one of the last ones to go up... GRRR. We were so hungry and thirsty... Vanessa sat next to me and everytime a person's name got called up, she would say out a food name. For example...

Announcer: Low Wai Kai
Her: Lor Mai Kai!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~

LOL!

Yes, it was dreadful Liz.

Managed to sneak some photos though... Too bad the lighting wasn't good.

Ahhh... i guess i'll really miss these few people!

And a day out with HJ.

We went to Vivo to have dinner. The restaurant was called the Asian Kitchen and we ordered ALOT. Too Bad we were too hungry so we ended up eating everything before we could take any pics. But luckily, we managed to take a pic of the dessert which was too cute for words!!! It was read bean wrapped in some skin and it was delicious!! OISHIII!

And now onto work! A very important thing to not that it is always sunny and now that the June holiday's are here we, at Kidzworld, are D-A-M-N busy. I had to go to work 6 days in a row and I had to wake up at 6a.m everytime. It was not a good period for me.

An Artistic shot

My sweet!

My nails are a seperate colour because of the different nail polish i used...

Stubby finger

An empty window.... So deep.

DAMN MOSQUITOES!!!!!!!!!

Ponies!

At the damn water area... stupid!!! After i got the new uniform, i forgot to put sunblock for just that one day and now i'm sunburnt. With THE MOST HIDEOUS LOOKING TAN EVER. I'm never wearing anything sleeveless until the tan goes away.

BYE!

Accepted!

2009-05-20T22:54:00.003+08:00

AAAAAHHHH...

Accepted!

I got accepted into NAFA. Crap. its the arts management course which is something that i'm not too keen about. I showed the acceptance letter to my parents and they agreed with me that its still very ex so which means i MIGHT have to turn it down...

SO ITS ON TO FRANCE!!!! (I hope, ohpleaseohpleaseohpleaseohpleaseohplease!!!!!!)\

My parents sat me down and we talked realistically about me going to study over there. I'll admit when you add the living expenses and air fare it won't come cheap. And of course we'll have to see if the school is reputable. Then of course there's the future to think about.

Firstly, what will happen when i get there? Would i be a failure? Would i end up with nothing in the end? With the job market hitting the pits it might mean that i'll become a bum.

Secondly, the money situation. What will happen when i get there. But most importantly, what will happen when I GET HOME......?

Thirdly, I think for me it'll be hard to have a career in Singapore so if i DO study in france i'll be there for the long haul. As in... I MIGHT NOT COME BACK.

So in the end, Do i go? Or do i stay. I'm usually very laidback about what i want but this is the 1st time i'm pushing to go to france.

So what will the future hold? Good or bad?

But then again, who knows?

Interviews

2009-05-15T22:36:00.002+08:00

Don't interviews freak you out?

Today i had an interview with NAFA for the course of Arts Management.

Here's the info:

In Collaboration with the University of Huddersfield

The BA (Hons) in Arts Management places an emphasis on professional practices and research to prepare graduates for the challenging world of arts management. The curriculum is designed to develop a well-rounded understanding of the theoretical, technical and cultural aspects which affect the management of the creative industries. The modules undertaken by students in their Honours level study are carefully structured to encourage analytical thinking and develop the ability to supervise a project from conception to execution. Students can pursue their individual interests via the Research Study and Major Project modules.

Candidature into the course would be based on a face-to-face interview. Applicants would likely have a Diploma in a related discipline and/or related work experiences. This course is designed for learners interested in working in the creative economy which spans both the performing and visual arts, as well as the diverse design and communications industries.

Its apparently a 1 yr course and S$17,000.00 per semester...

Somehow i don't really feel like doing this course at all but nevermind, just go for the interview.

So AGAIN, i got lost trying to find the building, but thank goodness i found some familiar landmarks and instead of taking the 30mins before, i it took me less than half the time to get there. But when i reached there i still had to wait... -__-'''

Ahhh.. the interview. They asked me questions like what was New Media and i sorta blanked out on that question. I remembered that i had a similar question sometime before so i searched my mind for the answer but DAMN! I really, really really forgot the answer!! Ahhhh, so i made up some crappy answer...

Dunno if i'll get it or not.

HA

2009-05-14T00:19:00.001+08:00

Ok, i'm not dead and the noise has NOT BEEN BACK.

YET.

Certified Creepy

2009-05-11T22:11:00.002+08:00

Ok, this happened to me in the morning.

At around 2 a.m in the morning,i heard this tapping noise. It was very methodical and it sounded like someone tapping on glass. "Tap, tap, tap..." So in the end i thought nothing of it and went back to sleep.

Then AGAIN at around 4 a.m i woke up to the SAME NOISE. Like someone was tapping their fingers on a glass surface and it was like the same beat... "Tap, tap, tap..." I was a little scared but i continued to close my eyes and eventually fell back asleep.

THEN WHAAA,

At 6am i heard the noise again... "Tap, tap, tap...." Same old fucking noise. I was pissed off cuz i had work later on but i was kinda scared too cuz... YOU KNOW, unknown tapping, its bound to drive anyone crazy. So, in the end, i just said to myself, "Can't you just stop the damn tapping and let me sleep???"

And the tapping STOPPED!!! OMGGGGG!!!!!!!!

When i woke up at 9 i tried to use my finger to tap against several surfaces but none sounded like the ones that woke me up earlier. So when my sister woke up(she sleeps in the same room as me), she looked at me and asked me, "Did you hear the tapping noise last night?"

AHHHHHH!!!! So I WASN'T DREAMING! HAH!

Ok, tonight i must see, if the tapping noise wakes me up i'm gonna investigate... if there is a face on my window.... well, i'll either die on the spot or i'll blog about it soon.

SWINE fever.

2009-05-02T00:32:00.004+08:00

Orange alert!! Guess the swine flu is getting worse. Apparently in Mexico, the streets are deserted, so are theaters and everyone is pulling out of there...

Well, what can we do to protect ourselves?? Esp those in the direct line of fire. I'm talking about those who work in Customer Service.

Which makes me vulnerable right? After all, there are many people from all over the world that comes in. Whaaa... So how should i protect myself?? I guess a mask is appropriate. But it's stuffy! Nevermind, i found some inspiration to wear it. This pic is for all the gals, and some guys...

FEVERISH HOTTTTTT!!!!! LOL!!!!!

Morons & Us.

2009-04-30T02:07:00.003+08:00

Hi. Has your intelligence been insulted lately?

Or maybe you were annoyed by someone?

Well, I shall classify these people under the term MORON.

Moron: idiot; a person of subnormal intelligence. (or from wiki: mental retardation)

OMG, you wouldn't believe the amt of moronic assholes i've met lately.

First let's start with work,

Apparently SOME people do not understand what is a weekday promotion. EXCUSE ME, is the word WEEKDAY so hard to understand. Some idiots can even come up to me and ask me what's a weekday. Honestly i try to answer them back in the nicest way possible but at the 10th to the 100th time i got really irritable. And kind of gave them a look which conveyed all of my pent up emotions which were screaming for them to get the hell out. My goodness, esp those 315's.... THEY ARE THE CHEAPEST PEOPLE AROUND. ONLY KNOW HOW TO SCOLD PEOPLE IF THEY DON'T GET THEIR STUPID DISCOUNT.

This asshole asked me: " Eh, (yes he said that), The sign says its $2, why you still charge $4?? You trying to cheat me issit??" BLAH BLAH... in some incoherent shit...

LIKE WTF?!?!? Dunno how to read then dun come and blame it on me... ASSHOLES.

OH YES. Another type of moron is those who ask me this question.

"Why is the weather so hot recently?"

WHY? LIKE HELL SHOULD I KNOW. I usually just smile and say global warming. ahhhhhhhHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! Irritating...

Ok, on to the next moron who is even worse...

My headphones which were bought a few months back was recently spoiled. So i decided to take it to the Plaza Sing store to get it repaired. So i went in and told the guy that the headphones weren't working well.

He tested them and he passed it back to me and said, "No, they are working fine."

I took the thing from him and i dunno why, but the sound came clearly. So he explained to me that my audio jack is spoilt and that i MUST REPLACE THE WHOLE DAMN THING WHICH WOULD FUCKING COST ME OVER $200+++.

Obviously I won't spend that sort of money so he told me to just buy a new one for $169 which was way cheaper. And i told him, my MP3 player is fine when i use other headphones or when i plug in my stereo. I think its just the headphones problem. So to emphasize my point, i asked him to lend me another pair of headphones so that i could prove to him that by using other headphones, it would work fine AND it did.

So he told me that why my stereo would work was because it was STILL while with my headphones, i kept moving about which distorted the sound.

What kind of idiotic mentally retarded mother-fucking excuse was that?!?!?!

So then he kept going on and on about how my MP3's audio jack was spoilt and that i needed a new MP3 player. But i also kept telling him that if the audiojack was apoilt, wouldn't any other thing that i plug into my MP3 player have that distorted sound too? I'm not an IT spaz to not know the MOST basic thing like that. THAN HE HAD THE FUCKING NERVE to give me a look and said that it wasn't his fault, he was just "trying" to explain to me why the headphones don't work and that i had to get a new MP3.

ASSHOLE TO THE MAX. I was so pissed off that i just left the store and decided to go down to the Jurong Creative warehouse to fix my earphones. When i got there on MONDAY, that motherfucker was there. At the front desk. FUCK FUCK FUCK. So i walked past him and went straight to the desk to tell the other guy what was wrong. Thank god he also noticed the problem and didn't give me shit about it. So i got it repaired and its back with me today!!!! But when i went there to collect it that ASSHOLE was there. But i was VERY satisfied when he handed me a NEW PAIR!!! HAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAH!!!! FUCKERRRRRRRR. Don't want to give me in the first place and now he has to hand it to me!!!! ASSHOLE.

I hope he gets fired.

FAIL!

2009-04-24T01:20:00.002+08:00

WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!!! Some of them are damn outrageous! LOL..

Ok, so applied to NAFA and while trying to find the damn building, I GOT LOST. From the National Library i got lost trying to find the damn building which was right down the street. Not 5 mins away to my left was the building. But did i go there??? NOOOOO.... I had to take the goddamn long route under the blazing sun. Oh yea... Even better?? I hadn't taken lunch. So it was ard 3, i was walking under the blazing sun and i couldn't find the damn building until (Thank goodness) i saw the NAFA logo.

GRRRRRR.....

The end is coming??

2009-04-16T00:57:00.003+08:00

Hey!

Have you heard?

In about 3 yrs time the world will end as we know it.

Apparently the space debris from space would crash into earth destroying everything we have like crops and contaminating the water. Technology as we know could end and well, we would probably die.

http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/afp_world/view/408590/1/.html

People should read it. VERY interesting!

And this one talks of a solution: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,512766,00.html

Also, there is this show on mysoju called Miss No Good and OMG, the lead girl whoever her name is her DAMN voice is SO irritating... URGH.

ITS OVVVVVVEEERRR

2009-04-10T00:52:00.004+08:00

CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES COM'ON!

YEAH! Its over! 3 yrs in that sch and graduation was on 7th April 2009. We dressed in our best clothes and walked up on stage to recieve our grad certs!! HAHAHAHAHAHAA!!! The wait was long and arduous but we survived!!! After all the long speeches, the STA batch was almost the last to go up. BUT YAY!!! We finally made it!

I have some pics but its of poor quality cuz of my camera phone...The camera that was with my parents had no batt so awwwwwww......

The ceremony was bittersweet i guess, seeing all of the old classmates and then realizing that you'll probably NEVER see them again. Good but sad. Only a teensy weensy sad though cuz the feeling of FREEDOM is at an all time high!!! No more stupid PBL, no more RJ's no more evauations, no more waking up to reach school at 8.30, no more crowded 169, just all in all, NO MORE RP!! Its the most wonderous feeling! But now, i have to work and i got to wake up earlier than the time i had to go to school.

Well, since right now i have not much work to do, i've been lazing around the house these few days on the com and watching as many dramas as i can. The best dramas i think are the japanese ones. Even though they have less episodes, the episodes are more touching and funnier than the korean ones. The Korean dramas are so weepy. every minute in 1 episode someone would start to cry. It happens so often that i'm emotionally unattached to the drama unfolding on the screen. Whereas for the japanese dramas, when i watched the finale episode of the drama called Absolute Boyfriend, i kept on crying and crying cuz it was so damn sad... BAHHHH!!! all these shows can be watched on mysoju.com. And yes. please watch Absolute Boyfriend! I assure you its gooooood! + the male lead is DREAMY!!!!! (the robot character)

SIGH!!!!!~~~~~~~~~ :D

South Park!

2009-03-24T19:52:00.005+08:00

HAHAHA... SP. South Park is like, the BEST DAMN SHOW.

I esp like this one show In season 4 where cartman joins NAMBLA.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

I love Cartman's phrase.. "Screw you guys, I'm going home" & "Respect my Authorator"

I like butters so much!!! He is adorable, esp when he's in his bear outfit in the episode where Paris hilton buys him as a pet!

Oh well, nowadays i have NO MOOD to blog whatsoever. But since i'm here, might as well say somethings right?

Well, firstly, work is seriously pissing me off. I don't get to work as much now cuz they are "cutting down". I understand that but to work only once a week is total ass. FUCK.

Secondly, graduation... URGH. I gotta be there by 8!! Like WTF?!?!My grad outfit cost $25 which i guess is not so bad unless you consider when on earth you will wear it again.

Thirdly, jobs. They advertise but they don't call you. yet another URGH.

On another note, my laptop is still shit. It is stupid heavy and practically worthless. I should just throw it away....

And lastly, BULLY BEATDOWN IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WATCH IT!!! :)

Bully Beatdown

2009-03-17T00:26:00.002+08:00

Heyyy sorry for the late entry, but my laptop is like shit. Still cannot fix... Sigh.

anyways... this show is freeeeakin awesome!!!!!!!

Bully Beatdown - MTV Shows

MTV has the most outrageous shows ever... HAHAHHA... I can't wait for it!!!

I shall try to update soon!

Time to rant bout.... WORK

2009-03-05T00:13:00.003+08:00

GAAAWWWWWWDDDD I HATE WORK.

I think it might be time for me to leave. Firstly, they want to cut back on cost so they are cutting back on part-timers. They have been reducing the amount of part-timers coming in thus making me useless. One time, i forgot to block out the sheet and they only put me to work for 1 measly day. URGH.

Other than that i have been having some issues at work involving some shitty people. I won't give out exact details but it involves:

-Stealing private photos
-Taking secret pictures
- giving shitty remarks behind other people's back

Basically this is tantamount ot backstabbing which is a total bitch.

But he's a guy. A sick lonely motherfucker piece of shit that's been stomped on several million times. This poor asshole must get his kicks from seeing girls private photos then. But like whatever. In the end, i believe in Karma which WILL eventually get him. Oh yes, i would help speed things along too :D

Another thing that annoys me about work is that there are so many part-timers and yet there is never one to take over you when you have something urgent. Like WTF. So many part-timers and NO ONE can commit to any single day?!?!?

OH PLEASE. Save the shit. If you don't want to work, DON'T. Its effing irritating when someone asks you for help and no one gives a shit. Don't know if that's really their fucking attitude but i don't care. Sigh. I think i might quit soon but who knows? I might, and i might not. Depends i guess. Things have been changing and now my 2 closest allies have left for taiwan.... :(

COME BACKKKK!

Tmr i'm having a spa day out!!! Can't wait for it!!! HEHEHEHEHEE!!!

As an additional something... I think this phrase really says what i feel from work.

Primal scream and shout
Let that mother out
You just gotta say hey
Primal scream & shout
Oooh tear it out

-By Motley Crue: Primal Scream-

Yup. Real subtle....

ranting

2009-03-02T23:52:00.003+08:00

Hi all.. i guess i might have a few things to rant about...

1) Work
2) My baking skills
3) GPA & schools

URGH. How irritating is sch? Well, the good news is that it's OVER for one. I'm pretty happy with my gpa score which i thought that i might do worse because of my lousy grades. WELL... IT WASN'T AS BAD AS I THOUGHT!!!!! Hehehe... fantastic. Oh yes, for my fyp? I got another C. Not surprising. Honestly, now i can truly say the theme was a bad idea. I hated it but i kept my mouth shut and kept working on it. So i thought to myself that as long as i passed i would be happy and i did!! No point harping on the past so i'm gonna be looking towards a brighter future... AWAY FROM RP and of course the several thousand insane people. Thank goodness :D

As for the other topics, i'll touch on it soon cuz now i gotta go... so BYE!

Sorry!!!

2009-03-01T23:23:00.021+08:00

Hey! Sorry for the lack of updates but my laptop was feeling really shitty. It stilll can't access the wireless but luckily i have another com! Well, this com was recently updated so i had no internet for a while now. UNTIL TODAY! I shall finally update on this long forgotten blog...

I shall now sublet this post into several different categorizes!

Lizzie Leaving.

Such a day! I had to rush from work to the airport... A long journey but worth it. Don't know why i like the airport so much. Maybe cuz of popeye... ANYWAY. Liz left for NZ. It was pretty sad to see her go but she was surrounded with the many people that loved her! Its a pretty good way to go off me thinks. Here are the pics! LIZZEEEE! I shall chat with you soon I PROMISE!!! I will repair my laptop soon!!!!!!!!

HJ, liz & me!

My dinner out!

This was organized by my good friends at the zoo... It was to celebrate the 3 feb babies birthdays! We went to makan at sakae sushi and then ate at NYNY. The mudpies were DELICIOUS. Everyone should eat it once in a while...

HUNGRY MONSTER

z

Bali trip!

This one is LONG overdue i know... But yes. My trip to bali. Honestly, i think Bali is overrated. The beach is so-so and there's nothing spectacular about the place unless you count the places that were bombed. Well, nothing much to look at. All that's left are the charred remains. LOL.

Ok, that wasn't really funny. So here are the photos!

Hotel waterfall

Santa on a holiday

One of the bed thingy's to lie in. Apparently you have to PAY.

Our first night out!

Giant chess

The view from the mall's foodcourt. YES. The sea near the MALL'S FOODCOURT.

We went white water rafting and it was F-U-N. The water was pretty cold but it was a hot day so that cooled us down. The course was filled with ledges and whatnot. sometimes it was fast but mostly we had to paddle hard and my arms hurt afterwards. During the ride i even saw a baby croc!!

Also, in front of us was this HUGE group from china. One guy was pretty amazing. He had a cigar in his mouth and the cigar managed to stay dry throughout the entire course while the others and us included were soaking wet. Hmm...

Did i mention that my head looks like a ball in the helmet + lifejacket???

Rice paddy fields were so big and scarily high up in the mountains... Not for those with weak hearts and a phobia for height. That includes you zhen :)

Dinner on the beach!

This was damn funny cuz when we first reached there we thought: "Whaa! Dinner on the beach! How nice!"
When it got darker...

"Eh, What are we eating ah?? Cannot see!! What am i taking?!?!? Aiyah!!!"

The band

Look at MY coconut drink!!!!! LOL!

Dinner at another restaurant...

AND finally, Our last night in bali...

And then, back to singapore! At the terminal at T3. Those stupid terrorist made life so difficult to travel. Now that they stepped up security, we take twice as long to check in/out. Plus because of them, the security stopped me twice. Going there, i forgot i had my small metal screwdrivers in my bag. When they found out, i was esorted to one side while everyone stared at me. So embaressing. Thay asked me all sorts of questions about why i brought it along and whatnot.. URGH. In the end i told them to throw the damn thing away.

AND then, when i got back to changi airport... AGAIN i was put one side while they searched my bag for "dangerous materials". There were these hooks on my bag which i can put a sling strap. The sling strap had these hooks which apparently was a danger material. -____- Wha lau. So stupid. what would i do with a bag hook???? Dig someone's eyes out?!?!?!

And now, Vanessa's party! It was a themed party. We had to wear something nautical inspired and it was fun! I met up with so many old friends and we gossiped all night long...

The pirates dancing

Vanessa's Cake which was lychee martini flavoured. Interesting....

This pic looks like i was proposing to her... so we decided to take another one.

YES! That's all folks! Now to upload the pics to facebook and i'm done! See ya!!!

Baking madness.

2009-02-20T22:18:00.002+08:00

No idea where i got this feeling from but i suddenly want to bake up a storm.

Dunno what's with work. I block out so little days and i only get to work for 2 days a week??? That's messed up. Never mind, i get to bake more which is good. But bad too for i might eat all the muffins... I had the first attempt to bake muffins on wed where i walked all over holland V to this nice little shop which sells only baking stuff! I made blueberry/chocolate chip muffins!(The Betty Crocker mix)

While buying the mix, i saw this blue colouring which made me want to try to bake true blue blueberry muffins! When i was mixing the ingredients i kinda went a little overboard with the colouring and poured, well, copious amounts into the bowl. The ingredients said to bake til golden brown. Well, obviously i couldn't gauage THAT part so i used the toothpick method. Then it came out all nice and bluey!

After that i put the icing on which took FOREVER and added those little edible silver balls... That was the worse part cuz most of them kept falling to the floor and i lost them sugar balls forever. Or at least until my mother wants to do a spring cleaning...

And then VOILA! It was done! It tasted pretty good for my first attempt... I set some aside for tingyun and the rest was for my family. I didn't make much, just about 9 i think. When my mother and my older bro came home, they said that my muffins looked yucky cuz they were BLUE in colour. SO WHAT?!?! At least they tasted good! My father also said, of all the colours, why did i have to choose the "sick" colours of blue or green? He said i should have left it the way it was or at least have chosen a happier colour.

"No one would want to buy a sick colour...."

WHATEVER. Not happy then don't eat la!

ps: Sorry for the no pics part... the muffins were gone before i could take any pictures. But i assure you it was good :D

Updateeee

2009-02-19T21:04:00.006+08:00

Sorry for this but i have no mood to blog about anything lately... But i have been a little lazy in uploading photos from wayyyyy back. SOON!!! After... tmr? We'll see....

And yes! Valentine's day passed by without any major casualties! Its sickening to see those lovey dovey couples isn't it?? Well, i manage to spend my valentine's day in a very meaningful way. I went to the old folks home for some volunteer work! I went with my sec sch classmates and the school organized a pet day for the old folks at the lions home for the elderly. Going there really had me change my perspective in life. It was a very meaningful trip where we chatted and played games with the elderly there. It was pretty hilarious with the other girls who were trying to chat with them cuz we all didn't know dialect! As for me, this women kept talking to me in hokkien or cantonese and i didn't understand a word! I just kept nodding and smiling... i bet she thought i was an idiot. We reached the home quite late because of 2 things...

1) A HUGE traffic jam

2) Went to the wrong home.

LOL. No. 2 was quite funny cuz we thought we had reached the place but as it turns out, there was an arrow on the sign that indicated the home was further away than initally thought. So when we saw the sign all of us on the bus cheered and the bus reached this home. Well, it was quite deserted at the entrance. we thought there would be some sort of person standing there to greet us or something. The the bus driver had to turn back and when we saw the sign again, there was the TINY TINY arrow pointing us to go further ahead... -____-'''

When we finally reached the home, we were about 45mins late... The damn jam was so irritating.
After that we went straight to the first floor where we chatted with them.It was quite sad to see some of them who were bed ridden. But i managed to meet some very interesting people. There was this woman who was a teacher in the 1960s and she taught in the kampungs. When i asked her what she taught, she said everything! English maths, science.... We talked about her experience and her son. She even told me about her grandchild and what a good boy he was...

Going there really puts my life into perspective. Would you put your parents in a home? For me, i don't think its fair for them unless circumstances make me do it but as far as possible there is no way i'm putting my parents in a home... Especially when i see my grandpa and grandma living by themselves. They have the option and independence to do whatever and i do feel that people should have the basic right to freedom.

SO moving on... Some pics!!

I stayed at the pan pacific with zhen. and we went for dinner at CHIJMES and then ice-cream at Ben & Jerry's at Dempsy! I wanted to sit on the swing thingy but the stupid people were so slow... Damn them. Then afterwards we went back to the hotel for some games! LOL, at the lobby we saw a man in a bathrobe ONLY! HAHAHHAHAHA!!! He was at the concierge desk next to me and vanessa and it was damn FUNNY! No footwear, just a bathrobe... Nice to know he finds it comfortable :D

And here are the pics!

Before heading out!

Harry's Bar!

4 people squished at the back of a beetle... Not a good idea.

I hate the punishment... It sucks.

Back at the hotel room

I was the only one ready :D HAHAHAHHA!! I think they were trying to figure out who goes where! If you can't see the words, it says...

LOVE I YOU.

What fantastic english, I know....

And finally... no birthday is complete without some drunken shots :D

Relax... No real alcohol was involved!

These are some of the reasons food is EVIL

2009-02-10T22:19:00.007+08:00

Hello all.

Its been a while but then again, i've been feeling tired. How is it that If i sleep for 10+ hrs i get tired throughout the day while when i sleep for 2 hrs i'm energized the entire day??

I must be depleting my sleep account... Have you heard of sleep debt?? Well, read up on it. Its pretty interesting.

So i had my 21st party and all.... I have all the pictures posted up on facebook. I'll blog about them another day when i don't feel so tired.

I would like to thank all those who came to my mini-party! And thanks for all the presents!! Vanessa, i know you were busy so it meant alot that you came...

LOL. We had so much fun there.... There was this ride where you could cycle around on a high ledge.. forgot what is was called. So me and zhen decided to go on it cuz it looked like fun! So we climbed all the way up to the place. Btw, me and zhen are afraid of heights... So when we were off it felt so scary!!! We were leaning towards the middle and every time we made a turn or even when we heard a squeak coming from the bicycle, we started to scream. It was hilarious!! We were the only 2 people screaming on the bicycle. Like :"OMG, OMG,OMG, THIS WAS SUCH A BAD IDEA", "AAAHHHHH!!! I WANT TO GET DOWN NOWWWWW!!!" and "MY INSURANCE DOESN'T COVER THIS" & oh yes. Also "I DON'T WANT TO DIE!!!! I JUST TURNED 21 AND I'M GOING TO DIE" were some of things we or I probably screamed.

So after WWW i had dinner with my family at the copthorne for some buffet and boy was it filling! We had so much to eat that in the end, we only cut the cake but didn't eat anything. And on to the most important part of the evening... PRESENTS.

Gotta say that the haul this time was pretty good! I had many wonderful presents but there was this one that stood out. Why??

It came in a little blue bag.

With a little blue box with a white silk ribbon around it.

WHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHA!!!! You know in the movies where they show any actresses getting that blue box for the first time and their faces are so excited and they just couldn't control their hands?!?!? MY GOODNESS IT WAS A COMPLETE HIGH!!!!! Throughout the night i couldn't keep my eyes off the bag... i was itching to get home and open it!! Let me tell you.... I WASN'T DISSAPOINTED!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

I love the feeling of opening a tiffany box... its really... i don't know the exact words but "magical" closely describes what i feel. Seriously.. like that kinda WHAAAA feeling! As for what i got??? DUN TELL YOU.

Other presents i got was pretty good too! I have this perfume from Salvatore Ferragamo which smells GOOOOOOOD....

Also, thanks to all those who wished me on my birthday! and again...

THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!! TIS MUCH APPRECIATED!!! :D

My Birthday

2009-02-04T21:50:00.002+08:00

Hehe... tmr is when i officially turn 21! YAY!

I mean...hmm. Dunno leh. Never really liked my birthdays before. But this one is turning into something which i can't possibly stand.

I have to confirm the no. of people and its so damn hard cuz people aren't replying. Like wtf?

Honestly, don't know what to do. Thank god not a big group is coming...

Ok, on to presents. What do i want? Here's a mini list!

-Unless you know my size, have been to a changing room with me and know specifically my measurments, please DO NOT GET CLOTHES.

- I like those noise cancelling headphones!

- BOOKS! To play it safe, Jeffery Deaver and Stephen King are the safest choices. But the only genre i like to read is Crime/Mystery/thriller.

- I don't wear jewellery

- hmm... dunno what else to write....

Oh well, now onto another problem. WHAT TO DO ON THAT DAY?!?!?

After dinner its a complete blank. How about clubbing? To be honest, i don't want to.... But then, what to do?!?! AHHH... see first la...

An outing!

2009-02-02T17:51:00.009+08:00

Had an outing with zhen. The 2nd day in a row... LOL. The first day i met with a REALLY old classmate of mine called samantha! I haven't seen her in about 9 yrs+ and she really matured.. ALOT compared to me :S hahahaa...Then we watched the movie bride wars. Its was really good! The movie was very touching yet funny.

THEN, there was day 2.

It was more eventful and definitely more... how should i put it? Scary? Dunno la, but throughout the day i felt creeped out. See, i met up with zhen again and another old primary school classmate whom i've not met for 9yrs or so. Should i put his name?? Ah fuck it. If its on this post he knows its him. So his name is Robin. And we went to cine. Originally zhen was supposed to meet him alone but she didn't want to so she asked me to tag along. He was supposed to bring another classmate of ours but when we reached there, the other classmate couldn't make it so it was him, me and zhen. HAHAHHAHAHAHHAA!!! SO AWKWARD. Throughout the entire time dunno what to chat about. And to be honest i didn't feel like talking much or revealing too much info. So we ended up watching the movie The Changeling. It was a good movie but the length was a little too long. And then after that me and zhen went to Zara to shop. I don't mean to be bad but robin wanted to come along!!!!

EEEWWW.

HE WANTED TO COME TO ZARA.

How sickening is that?? So zhen tried to "get rid" of him first by emphasising that it was a girls trip and we would be looking at a bunch of girly stuff which he wouldn't like. He said it was "Ok." He didn't mind tagging along!!!!!!

EEEEEEEEWWWWWW.

So when THAT didn't work, i tried my way and told him we were gonna go home after our shopping trip and also that zhen wanted to come to my house to say that we will be going home together. And I think he might have either really needed to meet his friends or he got the hint. Which means that he left!

YAY!

Like i said, i don't mean to be mean. But i don't want to hang out with him. Ever. It was weird enough the first time.

SO, on to Zara~!

Went to try on a few dresses and shirts. I think i might be addicted to zara's sales. But nevermind my addiction for now. So i tried on this dress which i wasn't sure about.

But zhen liked it! So i said i would take a picture just in case i didn't get it and i wanted the memory of the dress. It cost $129 no sale size Large (hint hint)*.

Then after shopping for hrs we finally went to makan at Sakae Sushi. We were starving! I think theres a pattern. Whenever we meet its always,
Meet: Hungry like mad
Then: Go to restaurant
After: Super full.

We kinda always overstuff ourselves and today was no exception.

Zhen ordered the Kimchi ramen which was quite good but very spicy... YUMMY though! The bowl was damn big though.

This was how much sushi we consumed :D

My bento set. Totally worth it! Too bad i stuffed myself on too much sushi earlier on...

Ok, further down was all the shots taken of zhen who wanted to sort of "emerge" from the bowl. All failed and succesful shot shall be posted here...

I think this was a cute shot!

Then came the multiple shots which shall be told in story mode....

Yay! Get a shot together!

Btw, i came home today to find my parcel came from Old navy. This parcel was ordered LAST YEAR. But i'm happy!!! At least it came right? A few days before my birthday somemore... LOL.

Do you see what I see??

Happy CNY! For you at least.

2009-01-28T21:42:00.005+08:00

Hello All. This came a little late but happy CNY. It ushers in the year of the ox. And if you look hard enough, many people are using this year to start the corny spelling of "NIU" year. Yeah. The zoo included.

On the 1st day of cny i had to work cuz i forgot when was CNY. So yes. I HAD TO WORK. In where? Ticket booth la. With a newbie no less. But nevermind. I trained him early in the morning and in the end he was ok. I think its bad for me to train people because i'm quite impatient and can be short tempered. If you don't do it right the 2nd time i will flair up. Thus training these 2 people was a headache for me. I had to constantly check my temper and make myself calm before i could proceed to anything because the tendency to shout and scream: "ARE YOU STUPID?!?!?" or "YOU STILL DON'T KNOW ASSHOLE?!?!?!" came into my thoughts one too many times. I don't mean to be bad or anything, but this one guy got on my nerves so bad i had a headache at the end of the day trying to train him. I'll call him X.

Ok, so X is older than me and has been in the zoo for a lot longer than me. So when i trained him i had to CONSTANTLY correct him, check over to make sure he was ok, and had to keep checking to see if what he did was right. Fucking shit. I had the worst headache at the end of it all. After i taught X all of it, he STILL CAN MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE FOR 7-10 TIMES OVER. NOT ONLY DID I HAVE TO KEEP REMINDING HIM IN A POLITE VOICE, I HAD TO KEEP CORRECTING HIS GODDAMN MISTAKES. OMG, my temper was so bad i could have killed anyone with my words. I had to keep calming myself down but at one point i almost shouted at him when he made the same mistake AGAIN. I don't care if you're old or my senior. Get it right.

Not only that. When he was alone in the tbth and AFTER i taught him everything again, he could still make a huge mistake my logging on to the wrong system.... MY GOD. Another thing is that he likes to hit the machine like it offended him or what. i told him MANY MANY times over and fucking over again, don't hit it so hard. He said the old machine is not very sensitive and the mouse was better. Oh Yes. And X also said that the machine was gonna end up like the old machine. WELL FUCK YEAH IT WILL END UP LIKE THAT DUMB-ASS MACHINE WITH THE WAY YOU'RE TREATING IT. I felt so sorry for the machine... "TACK-TACK" was how X hits the buttons. Like a punching bag. WHAT THE FUCKING HELL.

Today again. After i told him AGAIN, countless times to wait for a senior to come by and sign off BEFORE X can give a refund, he apparently "forgot". WTF. serious shit la. I cannot ta-han. I want to punch his stupid grin off his fucking face. But i gotta chill. I can understand if the first 1 or 2 times you don't get it right but this is COUNTLESS of times. COUNTLESS. I feel mad just typing out this story. FUCK YOU. DON'T WORK BETTER. OH GAWD. If i have to train X again, i dun care, i'm gonna shout. I've raised my voice a few times with X but never to the full decibel. The first person I trained was this foreigner and let me tell you. she got the basics fast. When i was training her, she got one mistake and i SCREAMED at her. And guess what? She got better. She is now good at it and i never needed to shout at her again. Thank god for that. If this person doesn't shape up i don't care who the hell he is. He's gonna get an earful from me.

Another thing is when people are slow, I HATE SLOWNESS. So when transacting money, ok, can la, be a little slow because you're careful. BUT if you're slow ALL the time. That's when i draw the line. Like for example, The line is already damn long and yur taking yur time to ask questions???? Can hurry up or not? Also, when i ask you to CONFIRM what they want. ASK THEM. Like one time...

Customer (C): I'd like 6 carousel tix
X: Ok, that would be $24
Me: Wait, for how many children? (Because accompanying adults go on free)
C: Oh i have 3 child and 3 adults to accompany the child.
Me: Blah blah... (abt accompanying adults go on free)
C: oh. Ok thank you.
X: So how many child?
Me: 3 child.
X: For what ride?
Me: Carousel (getting pissed off.)
X: Ok. (Starts to click 3 horse carriage)
X: That will be $18 please.
Me: Looks questioningly at the screen.
C: starts to take out money
Me: (Already trying to simmer down) Are you sure its carousel?
X: (still confident) Yeah 3 carousel... Oh wait. Yeah. (clicks the correct button) 3 carousel is $12.

MY GOODNESS. Can get headache one right??? Fuck. 1 person took about 5 mins when i usually take like 2 or less.

I bet people out there are like, "But he's new" "He doesn't know much" or"Give him time."

FUCK YOU. You so smart, work with that asshole.

One more thing to end off this long post... COUNTLESS. I TOLD X COUNTLESS OF TIMES. IF YOU GET IT WRONG SO MANY TIMES, ITS EITHER YOU ARE A MORON OR AN ASSHOLE.

The last day of our lives

2009-01-24T22:45:00.007+08:00

Ending RP was the greatest feeling...

Until i realized i forgot to do my RJ in time... Dumb man.

So anyways yesterday was the end of 3yrs in that ice-cold hell. I'm finally graduating from RP. I hate that school and i'll be glad to never go back.

But there are somethings that I'll definitely miss....

Last pic i'll ever take with shirley alone... LOL

Cheryl Loon bin ladin has been a great fyp partner and a great classmate! Have fun in bali!

And lastly, the few STA people that were left in the building on that sunny Friday afternoon of 23rd Jan 2009.

All in all, the 3 yrs that i've been in RP has had its ups and downs but i would never regret meeting the people there. Its been fun and i find that throughout it all, some friends who do make the effort to keep in touch with you is someone true. Compared to those who become your BFF's in one sem and forget you the 2nd. Thankfully for me, i managed to find 2 good and true friends in RP. LIZ & HJ, remember to always keep in touch ok!!!

Cheers to the present, our future and lastly, Hope the laughter and the happiness never ends!

Bye RP.

The bestest friends i could ever ask for.

On a fine day, i feel fine.

2009-01-23T00:03:00.003+08:00

Went to Yuki & Yaki today with Zhen and it was the 2 F's. FUN and FILLING.

The restaurant at Marina Square which was a LONG walk from City Hall... Esp long if you're hungry like hell. So when we finally went there, we rushed towards the food area and took as much as we wanted and cooked it.. FOOD + HUNGER = PURE GOODNESS. Which i'm sure everyone would agree.

So about this place, you can actually cook the ice-cream. What we did was to pour this little cups of ice-cream mixture into the plate and let the mixture slowly freeze into ice-cream. The last time i went they had all the sucky flavours like strawberry which smelt like smelly armpits and tasted worse and some stupid green tea which tastes like powder. So this time we took mainly raspberry, chocolate and mint. The tiramisu was a HUGE mistake. Tastes horrible. And to accompany our ice-cream was a huge amt of chocolate chips :D

Peppermint with TONS of chocolate chips

"cooking" the ice-cream

HAHHAHA!

Zhen's crazy face... Too high on ice-cream.

MY GOODNESS. We ate like there was no tomorrow... We kept stuffing our faces with so much food. And we also managed to say that it was no problem eating the ice-cream... Because you know what they usually say. There's always room for desert!

After 7 cups of ice-cream, we felt so full we were about to burst. Turns out eating desserts has its limits. URGH. Really really felt like puking....

Another thing that was really annoying was the stupid guy who sat next to us. Through our first few cups of ice-cream he kept staring at us and talking abt us to his guy friends... EEEEEE. Asshole. We could hear everything he said... thank god he left soon after.

You know how marina square is always so cold? Don't know why today's air-con was esp lethal... It was freezing cold when we shopped around... We walked into world of sports and that place was like a bloody freezer. It felt like the chill had spread to our bones before we finally got out of there.. YAY!!!

BTW, I hope people, you can make it for a birthday dinner! Keep the 5th - 7th free ok?!?!?!?!

Tiring...

2009-01-21T20:14:00.002+08:00

Oh dear, today after only getting 3 hrs of sleep i managed to wake up... Not in a good mood. Neither did i want to... But that's always happening so no big deal about it. But the good thing about work is that it clears your mind. Slowly you start to wake up and feel refreshed which is something i like about it. Although it might seem long and draggy to get there, but when i start, i enjoy what i do.

Yesterday was spent at work again, but after work went to the office to decorate it for CNY. It was fun!!! So many different hong bao's were strewn across the table. Food like brownies and cakes were there too and there was tons of music and laughter. As cheesy as that sounded, i had so much fun making lanterns and catching up. The lanterns on the other hand... i had to remember back in the good ole days where we were taught how to make lanterns from scratch. Mine looked kinda weird though... HAHAHHAHAHHA

Then DINNER.... OMG. Real food tastes good... by the time i got home it was almost midnight so i bathed, checked my emails and went to bed. which was ard 2? Then this morning i woke up at 5 but until now i don't feel all that tired. Fantastic man!!!

OH YES!!! HAHAHHA! Today whoever this person lala is decided to act smart and "preach" to me the importance of playing cluedo... WHATEVER. :D

Happy smiles all around!!!!

Republic Polytecnic... Good or Bad

2009-01-19T21:53:00.003+08:00

You should watch the video.. It talks about some interesting things about RP.

1) Timing

Year 1: 8.30

Year 2: 9.15

Year 3: 10.00

2) Curriculum

attachment in final yr & Yr 1 modules will change reduced to 8
Each diploma intro core discipline (unique to the school)

UT timing changing. Making it longer

3) Own students talking crap about RP.

Hmm... let me see.... Of course, all these changes are made after i graduate of course.

Why didn't they manage to do these sooner??/ Esp for the fucking UT which i have virtually no time to complete it. Well, in yr 1 that is...

And as for the curriculum, they are finally changing it. Thank effing goodness... Stupid school. I hate it. Esp STA modules... NOT CHALLENGING. Want an example??

MODULE: Interactive Entertainment

A VERY good example of why the module SUCKS.

This is what the Faci had to say about that day's problem:

In this week’s lesson, we explored the satisfying power to take meaningful action and see the results of our decisions and choices as players. Using the game as a launch pad, you were tasked to explore mechanical gears that made the game work out.

This feeling of empowerment that comes from being able to take actions in the (virtual) world whose effects relate to the player’s intention. It depends on what’s going on in the interactor’s head, on what’s communicated between the technical system and the person, not only on technical facts like counting the number of system actions that are available at each moment.

One such mechanic is the partial transformation of the game into a theatrical-like play, where the players’ roles have evolved from a token to dynamic scriptwriters and actors. Each level of evolution is governed not solely by the player’s decision making process, but by game progression and judgments based on other players’ decisions as well.

WOW... sounds so cheem right?? Now, what could we have possibly done that could possibly be so darn meaning ful that made me learn SO MUCH about games in general??

We played cluedo. Over and over again.

OH YES. Then, what did we do after that?

We talked about how it engaged players.

Fan-fucking-tastic.

No wonder i don't show up for lessons.

And yes people. This was what i spent ONE WHOLE DAY DOING. SOLVING A PROBLEM THAT HAS ADDLED THE ENTIRE WORLD FOR CENTURIES. SOLVING A PROBLEM IN THE WORKFORCE THAT HAS PLAGUED GAME MAKERS FOR CENTURIES ON END.

BY PLAYING CLUEDO. REPEATEDLY.

Isn't that great?? I find that my brain cells have been slowly dying off one by one million ever since i entered this school. Now, another thing that the principal addressed was....

Own students talking crap about RP.

Well, why not? If there was a problem which we might feel strongly about it, won't we want to voice our opinion about it? And i know change takes time but this is ridiculous. It took 6 years or more for the students to complain to finally get their voices heard this year?

Sigh, whatever it is, i'm graduating soon.. Hopefully. I hope i don't fail in one of the classes... :D

National Geographic rocks

2009-01-17T23:17:00.002+08:00

You gotta love NG. Have you been to their store?? Its located at Vivo city and it is F-U-N! I went with liz there, originally we were supposed to watch a movie but because of my oral defense which was delayed, we ended up just walking around and shopped. ANYWAY... back to National Geographic store... AMAZINGLY FUN. There were all these items you could touch and play with, the dressing area looks great, and of course... THE WIND CHAMBER. Its for you to test out their jackets and how great it is.

Of course then, i had to go in! So i tried on a jacket and went inside... BEST TIME EVER!!! It was about -3.5 degrees inside and i went in with just the jacket... It was so cold i felt like my face was about to freeze off!! But the jacket... WOW. Even though the rest of my body was freezing, my upper body stayed warm throughout... GO THERE and just try out the machine... its amazing!

And yes, FYP 2 IS OVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Happy as I am, i need my rest now. The time is over, and finally, we are FREE!!! Gonna graduate soon and say bye bye to this rotten school! HAHHAHAHHA... Now all that's left to wonder is if i will skip the last 2 lessons... :D

National Geographic store ROCKS!!! GO THERE.

Sch is ending soon!

2009-01-15T23:04:00.001+08:00

Yes, sch is coming to an end.

No more PBL(well, who knows? HOPEFULLY), no more routine timing, not much more of shitty backstabbing people and preferbly, no more idiotic modules.

Well, i won't look forward to working life then.

I hate monotony and this is killing me. I want a job that i can travel around the world, stay at the best hotels, eat the best food, go on an adventure every other day! If only that job existed... wait, i think discovery channel has that job...

I really have NO idea what i want to do in the future and that kinda scares me... Damn.

Right now i hope to at least get into a good school.... PLEASE!
