Sore Eyes!
Frankly speaking, I tot that I had passed the stage of Sore eyes!
Now I know I am not!
Guess What I had it again!!!!
A better term would be Viral Infection!!!
Faint ah.....How come like that??!!!
I wake up fine in the morning though I find my eyes a bit itchy last nite!
Alas! Then I went to sch n it get worse!!!!
My head was groggy!!! Haiz! My frenz were commenting on my eye was red. I said I duno what happen and that it is damn itchy!
Then as the time passed, my eyes even worse!
I decide to call my mum n she suspect it is sore eyes case...make me so frightened!
I decide to see doc, guess what he say???
In a relaxed n sit back manner, he cross his finger n form a triangular shaped.
"Aiyo, A sure case of sore eyes lor...................... U cant drink any tonic when u are unwell..........................of course lah, you will feel terrible working at such long hours at the computers coz it is out of ur routine. Besides, you are made in Singapore mah! "
Now what does he mean by made in Singapore???
I rebutted him n said, " So you mean made in Singapore is inferior lah??"
He just laughed!
And I wonder, Isnt he a Singaporean??? So that makes him of inferior quality also right????
Hahaha!!!!
But at that point in time, i was worrying about my impossibly deadline that stretched till next semester.
Then I ask if any cure.
Guess wat he say?
"Yeah only 1 way lor! REST!"
Faint ah....What kind of lame doctor did I paid for consultation??? Haiz.....
REST is something like a luxury that I cant afford now!!!
Seriously cant afford. But he assured me that if i rest fully for 3days, i should be fine.
Gues will have to trust his judgment!!!
By the way, his medication sucks!!!!
Onli his eyedrops is soothing!!
And it cost 5bucks ok!!!

Project woes!
Recently been held up by the project stuff and I can tell u that time is not enuff even for sleeping!
The first project meeting was on Computing module. Darn!Haven been doing computing modules since Year2! faint lah...Guess what I have to do??!! IS planning! Imagine this..me going hell with it as my gpmates duno the context except me!!! faint lor! I feel like teaching them....Haiz.
Then I tot the next day will be better. No it was not! It was even worse!
I din send the email coz my connection not able to take it and that no consensus reached wrt whether going see the Prof or not!
I got sort of blast by my sort of leader!
Hey! it is not my fault that it turn out this way! I tried to remediate what!
Then there is the case of Canadian Guy!
I m realli sorry that i missed his simultaneous hat-trick sms!!! But not that I meant to lor. You know what he write in his last sms???
"For the last time, where (not when) are we miting?"
I want to remind him that "hey Pal! SMS can be synchronous and ASYCHRONOUS! Not my fault that I din reply, Buddy!"
The fact that I replied within the hour is usually my fastest! I had to switch to silent mode in sch! I still rembr the no hp interuption in sch lor!
NVM!
I tolerate...then during the discussion we are deciding on the topic and that he say something like" I am fine with XXXX (topic) since you guys would prefer it!"
What does he mean by that???
Succumb to majority influence????
U are entitled to ur say, Pal! but that doesnt mean that we will follow!
Going to the bar is not my cup of tea and like I said b4, I dun run by the American time!
Then I was too tired to do or contribute anything coz i was trying to focus on wat he has to say. He speaks realli fast and my processing speed slow down due to fatigue. I was trying at the same time to think of this valid point b4 i say. But since they dun1 anything other than the topic, i juz nod my head to the topic i like.
Guess wat Mr Canadian has to say???
"Say something dun juz nod your head!"
Excuse me, cant u see that I am tired??????
I din say not mean i am not tired!
I am worried sick for my computing project the nite b4 so not much rest!
Damn him!
I realli feel quite pissed off!!!!!
And today, I tot if no conclusion for my computing project then die lor. Turn out that we did it. The prof help us as we specify our ideas!

National Day!
HAPPY NATIONAL DAY!!!!!
Haha..It was fun. I went to the carnival at Yishun with Val. We walk all the way to the place.
The place is severely cordoned off and lotsa guys in uniform. Juz hate to c them in uniforms.
The carnival was more of a display of the various divisions of the SAF. U have the Infantry, Logistics, Communications n Engineers. Some of the field is wet and Val wondered if they had some demostrationsgoing on earlier that make use of water.
Surprise! Surprise! Kids actually crowded around the IPPT tent.
Why??
Coz there are candies!! haha....old treat for kids but they still love them anyway. No matter how clever they are, they are still kids at heart!
The Army guys had their fair share of laughter watching kids jumped the standing broad jump, shuttle run n the pull-ups.
Oh....by the way, Val actually mentioned that one of the army guys at the standing broad jump station is quite cute. Have to agree to it grudgingly. I dun like mens in uniforms. Juz instant dislike! Dun ask me why!
The next attraction with kids is the ammunition. The SAR21, the short range launcher, the truck rifles...had kids using and climbing up. There is a guy in full combat field gear with his face painted green around.wonder if his face itched all putting up the make-up for the whole day.
Next is the firworks.
The fireworks was above my head. It is so glam! N nice. Though it leaves a lingering smell of explosives. Everyone was screaming and shouting. haha...I did my fair share too.
The sight of golden wheat thrown into air, the swirling brilliance, the golden multicolour rays of fireworks all lit up the otherwise boring nightscape of Yishun.
All u can see people crowding in the few top floors of the HDB flats around the field. Juz like pigeons. haha....
As we walk our way home, we stop again as I remembr the truck n the artillary are coming round. So we waited near the big road again!
I mentioned to Val that it seems like the old movie flick of Hitler where the army had a victory in war n its people in Berlin are rushing to welcome the them back, waving their hands n flags.
It was totally cool. The army guys in green are waving like mad but some keep their cool n not wave.
We headed our way back! Such a nice nite!!

Birthday Pressie!
I tot Val and the rest have given up on the idea of a dress or skirt. But me being unaware and blur, soon found out it is otherwise.
Not that I refuse to try anything, but I am a bit numbed by the few trips of clothes trying on. So lathargic is the word, plus my left eyelid a bit swollen.
Think my refusal and my fussiness had Everyone sweltering and temp soaring, pissed at me, in midst of the aredi high temp outside.
Wat my idea of a dress or skirt is juz plain or hidden design, monocolour. I dun like the others. I am quite affected by the heat and the stupid eye, so my mood swing set in. But I try to calm myself down. I realli hate myself for spoiling the day. I know it is hard to go shopping with a group of frenz. A rare opportunity.
I realli like the oriental kind at projectshop blood bros. hehe...I never know i could fit in a size3 tight fitting tee. realli something. I like the lotus n greens very refreshing for a design. I am not those funky type nor am I the one who like slinky dress n goes partying.
Then we try a green number at an "oriental" kind of self design shop. It certainly looks nice on the model but alas! design for a smaller body. Though a wrap skirt, the cut is a bit too high when I wear so to a rough person, very very impractical. I might be caught as exhibitionist leh.
I like a lot of fabrics. Cant bear my carrot legs to hurt other's eyes.
Finally, without choice, Val get me to the Esprit outlet near our house and I got wat i want. Tees!!!
Heehee!! I can afford 3pieces as I stretch the dollars!! Thanks Gals, for the pressie! Sorry for letting u bear with my fussiness and hot temper.
In conclusion, I still think that skirts are not for me! I am still every bit rough n hot tempered. Still thinks jeans n pants suits me more!!
hehe

Technophobic!
It is made up of two stems, "Techno" which means technology and "phobic" which means fear.
Now you may wonder, what the hell I got to do with this word, and most probably would want me to cut the crap! coz u know english lah...
Ok, here is the story.
Recently, my one of my friends starts to call me to attend some seminars which are useful, I admit. But one of the big big main reasons why I din go and stay at home to pen this down is because, this type of seminars are damn LONG! It last for 7hours including the time taken to travel to and fro.
So guess what? Here are the impacts on me.
1) Obvious reasons being I will constantly be afraid I will miss the last bus. And that will cause me a hell of $$ if I miss and a probable case of heart attack or irregular heartbeat.
2) Next obvious reason is that My mum will NAG and SCold me even if I am not a kid now! I am late for home. Even if i dun have a curfew!
I hate that! Fight With my mum dun end nice and in the end the one who suffer will be me.
I am Mum-dependant.
3) LAck of sleep! God knows how many hours of sleep I need so I try to sleep as early as I can. Deprivation of sleep can lead to PANDA EYES, poor concentration, poor memory and most importantly, my face will be full of pimples.
And THAT will lead to another round of vicious cycle where mum will nag again at my complexion.
See I am so disadvantaged.
So I tried my best to convey my unwillingness to go and attend such kinda late classes. But Damn!!! Handphone rings and sms flew like crazy.. as if they were FREE!!!
They even gave me the kind of advice that If u dun attend you will REGRET!!!!
Now Who am I??? Am I that kind who give in so ez unless I am willing to give in? I have my freedom you know. Dun u coerce me!
Nvm the handphone, they start calling my house phone. So can u imagine, thru'out the day, I got scared of phone ring, n handphone vibrating. I switched it off. This is technophobic.
Guess WAT!!!
Now my friend start to scold me for it. Why did u own a hp? Drop into washing machine ah??
Haiz..Now I finally understand the theory and situation of technophoics that I used to read in books. I had never tot it as so bad until this nightmare hit me!! horrible!!!
ME going to suffer breakdown soon!!!
Help me!!!

An eventful day!!!
I got numbed along the way and refuse to get myself personally involved in the figure competitions, raising my bids along with others.
I was still quite worried that I din get the modules even after the bidding period ends.
But Alas, hehe, I got all my modules. That is so heng, I tot I could get away with bidding all my modules at 1 point each.
I think the dept fully aware that there are certain number of students taking classes should at least extend the vacancy more to us than the other depts. I feel quite sorry for those who had unable to bid for their modules successfully and me along the way fear I might be one of them.
So much for bidding and harsh reality.

NDP preview!!!
I din even know today was NDP preview till I found that almost half of the people in the MRT cabin are wearing RED!!!
I got shocked and realised that Hey it is NDP but so what!!
I din win a ticket to either of the preview or the actual event. Sourgrape mentality I know.
I cant be bothered to dress in RED when I am not going. So I happily shopped with my sister then I got myself a nice Chain from Perlini coz my old one is broken. (AS i said, I am a clumsy and rough person.)
Then as I walked myself to Suntec, the junction in front of Shaw Towers actually had traffic light problem. Then I got irritated. But decide to carry on. Then turn out that the roads around Suntec City area are totally blocked out and people are curiously peering into a vacant military compound. Stunned I decide to get a higher view. Turn out that I see the smart military marching troops for NDP rehearsing sia. Wah....The SPF, Navy, Air and Military...
One word left to describe...
COOL!!!!
Totally proud of them!!!
Then I carry on shopping lah....Coz not me marching mah..who cares..
Then around 810pm, I overheard a kid telling his parent, " Mommy I want to watch the firworks."
FIREWORKS!!!!!
How long have I not seen them......My sister calculated and said that 6yrs since we participate in NDP!!!
6yrs never see it live!!!!
How amazing so I a bit badgered my sister to stay for a little longer..
Wah.....What a tantalising view!!!! from Marina Square!!!
SO much variety and so different from the last time I seen it...Realli feel myself getting high!!!!
haha........
Then boarding MRT back is a trouble ...so many people!!! and so many police and military personnel.
Xing KU le!!!!
Ganbatte!!!

Birthday Gift!!!
Here is how I am going to amend things.
Hope you sisters have something in mind and things that I want...Otherwise, I wun wear it. I SWEAR!!!!
There are a few that I had in mind. Can Take into account coz NO one knows my body better than I did.
Dorothy Perkins
Here is one I think I like better in WHITE!!! I checked for u. I know that this type have WHITE!
Another one of this design that is in WHITE!!!! I dun quite like other colours and I think I look betta in long skirts!!!
Besides Dorothy Perkins, Something like this kind also can...hehe..
Not that I dun like Flared skirts but adding pockets to sides makes me look bulky and the design I tried on today was not very flattering to my body shape.
This is another one which i think i look nice in it.
Oh..There is one more WHITE skirt in Espirits that I like, tier skirt I presumed.
Ah....more more preferably, I like the following top.
Quite nice and shape like a dress...hehe

Wandering in fantasy land
If you 1 some hints, look at the illustration on my blog.
Sophisticated is one.
Sleek is the other. Careful there, it is not "slick".
Maybe I am clumsy so I tend to admire these two traits.
What has these two words got to do with my fantasy land?
Well, the books that I chose to read are all quite fantasy and include those two words.
As usual, I fall into the world that authors have created. This time is is J.D Robb. (also known as Nora Roberts).
This series of novel is more investigative type and set in the fute , let say A.D. 2058.
In this series the main lead are Lieutenant Eve Dallas and her Husband, Roarke.
Here are the settings.
Sleek cars and security systems.
Fantastic technology that existed. (I am a technophile who embraces technology. To me Technology = Sleek and Sophistication)
And their Backgrounds?
Eve though had a tainted childhood, wields considerable power in her work. (cool, Love these kind of ladies. But her background abit like Oprah Winfrey's.)
She is rough, rugged, but has her own style.
She moves like panther, sleek movements and agile.
A bit thick nerves as well.
Had a husband who is a thief in the past. ( Here is the part I like best and even like her better)
A whiz now at security and still breaks in houses to help her.
Willing to accomodate her and her past. (cool)
Successful in his business, yet help out his wife.
Had a good taste ranging from wine, food to helping his wife pick her clothes for her to wear. (wah....)
Had some kind of understanding between them.
Wont Scream at her even if she tore a damn costly evening gown during investigation.
Wont force her to quit her job and attend every of his biz gatherings like "Tai-tai's" do.
(according to facts, she attend 3 out of 5 wor..)
Make breakfast for her in the morning.
Give her massage when she needs it.
Be there for her when she has a nightmare.
......................
......................
....................
.......................
........................
All these sounds very fantastic and screams the words sophistication and sleekness lor.. More importantly, the feelings run deep hehe.
But Sounds like I am a feminist wor. Hehe, no returns to the guy, a bit sad huh?
Well, let me known if there is such a guy, single and available (dun send me those who aredi got one), dun nid to be too handsome. (juz ok good enuff)
haha
Let me be away in fantasy land a little. hoping I will be inside then.

Reflection on blogging
Duno why, My standard of writting skills actually declined.
Horrible sia, since I need this to survive sia.
Guess, my brain is not working so it refuse to work in the correct order and logic.
Hate this notion, guess I have to work harder on my writting skills then.
I cant really imagined the possibility of losing it.
LOst the touch!!!

Sports and $$$$
I find that each candidate city have played different cards on their tables well.
Sleek presentation, colours and vibrancy, children and hope, culture and art, warmth and spirit.
Very nice outlook.
I had a bit of doubt myself when my whole family voted and rooted for Paris.
It turn out that London has won. My intuition was right after all
The event was rather full of prestige, glam and $$$.
I blanched a little when i saw NY's bid presentation including marketing ties. (juz one of the many examples, happen that this is quite recent.)
Though that is part of sports now, I will never get used to tying sports to $$$.
I rembr I wrote my A" level GP compo on it.
The best example that i use i think was Manchester United. It was already famous boosting David Beckham and so on. the earnings from side merchandising was equally a big tidy sum.
But without $$4, who will wish to host games for the name of sports?
God knows, if modern people have done enough exercise to keep themselves fit, let alone sports man.

Your power is: Super Strength
Explanation: Your gift is rather self
exlainig. But to clear things up, you have been
given a power that makes you extremly strong.
This is of course speaking in pyshical terms.
When doing good deeds the power could be used
as helping people in e.g. fights or those under
a fallen building etc. For bad purposes the
power could simply kill/beat anyone until the
gifted gets his way.
You are however as a person on the good side.
You are the leader type and have a tendancy to
look at the whole picture rather than details.
That could make you come off as inconsiderate,
but that's far from the truth. You can be
impulsive and aggressive but you mean no harm
with it. Sometimes it can even save you. If you
were to be in a group with others who have
super powers you would be focusing more on them
and the situation rather than yourself. So to
even it out, you can be egotistical at times,
but it's because you ignore your needs every
once in a while. You are responsible and brave
but could still be seen as reckless.
Negative aspects: Since you focus on the
team/family/group of friends you could start
thinking that they don't care about you since
they don't seem to look after you the way you
do to them. Also you could intentionally
endanger yourself (even in everyday life) when
doing descicions without thinking it through
that much. But a leader with more sense of
responsibility does not however come off as
reckless, but logical.
What Power is Compatible With You?

The essence of Blogging
There is a special one-liner that says," there are more bloggers in Singapore who are unidentified yet contributed to the local blogsphere."
That I must agree. A lot of us have kept blogs and made known to only a few close ones around us. Some for the purpose of keeping in touch with one another. Some for pure voyeuristic purpose of delving into another person's world.
I have friends and lecturers who have got to know another occupation better as a result of blogs kept by people in different occupations.
These seems to be great knowledge. But there is a thin line between voyeurism and concern or knowledge.
We may be intruding into other people's privacy.
Another friend of mine who keeps link to his other friends' blogs has this disclaimer or rather warning,"Please ask my friends before reading their blogs so as to respect their privacy."
But who actually heed these warnings?
You may think why I am saying all these.
But what I have to say is this. We do not know the impact of blogging at the moment. Not the long term effects. However, the short-term effects of blogging are showing.
You may have heard of misunderstandings between colleagues and the result is the blogger getting fired.
You may have heard of nude pictures online that made relatives and friends appalled.
I even have lecturers saying dun put anything online not even blogs that may have harmful effects to urself.
But what exactly is harmful? And what is the purpose of keeping blogs?
IF the purpose of keeping blogs is to be a convenient diary, then there is a conflicting interests present. Being true to your diary and protecting yourself from negative effects of that potential post.
Actually, I find that the blog written by someone can reflect the inner feelings of someone quite truthfully. You never know that that dark side of the person really exist or you didnt get to see unless you are close to that person.
But now with the convenience of the WEB, you get to see it. Even though it is text, the impact of their dark side still left quite a bit impression on you.
I didnt know that one of my friends can yell obscenities. I mean my friend wouldnt say it verbally yet he/she wrote it online. So violent words that you cant believe it is from a docile gentle person.
Hard to believe, but it is true.
There maybe even devastating vision that employers may try to search potential employee's blogs to find out about their personalities and psychologies.
Or that the blogs be used as an incriminating evidence in court against the blogger.
I am not being pessimisstic here but nothing is for certain.
No one knows how the technologies will develop. One can predict the technical aspects but never how a person interact with the existing technologies. Coz Man are the ones with intelligence and they have a special way of using things given to them.
So to be truthful in blogs or not, you have to decide for yourself.

New CD intro
This may sounds weird afterall I am in Singapore, how can I get to know then singer from China. All thanks to Internet!
This guy is super talented. Well if you think you have seen too much guys who can act but cant sing, you have mit your match.
What more, if you have a liking for slow, lazy jazz songs, and you dun mind to listen them in chinese. Here is another additional point to y you must listen to it.
It is a very unique cd album.
Fill u more on this guy, Chen Kun (陈坤). He is tall and he is shuai. Pluz he can sing and act. Multi-faceted actor from China. If you 1 to see his drama, u can try to source out for VCDs like "凤阳花鼓"(starring him and Zeng Bao Yi).
Very nice songs, fall in love with his slow and sensual voice. very soothing.
I hope I can find this cd soon leh. hehe..Very nice wor....
Can I get this CD as my Birthday present instead of a dress?
Even if I have no choice, can I choose my own dress?haiz..LAst resort that I hate to use it man.
Here is a cover of the album.

Joe Cheng Craze

In case u duno who he is, the picture on left is him.
I view the Chinese pop drama "The Rose" with some skepticism. Val insisted that it is good and she is kind enough to lend me the whole series' vcd.
At first, I was like oh gosh, what kinda series is this? Then as I view on, duno if it was me being bored at this stage or wat u call as "同情心过盛", I start to like the character "Kuei" or translated literally as "sunflower" portrayed by Joe Cheng. Worse still, I start to get charmed by the natural talent flair and the onscreen charisma of Joe Cheng. He is realli talented I must say for a greenhorn.
Then I start to like the soundtrack of this series. I must say quite a few songs are nice. as I will introduce to u.
"Yao Lan Qu" by Power Station.
I have more or less favour Power Station over the years and with this song, it is strange that I din recognise their voice. Maybe I am too engrossed with the series's plot.hehe. A must listen one thought u think it may drive u to sleep. hehehe...dun worry, u wun. In fact u may cry after it.
"Yezi" by A-Sang
This series has made another female singer famous. A-Sang's a bit raspy voice portrayed this "沧桑"feel quite well. After u have seen the MV of this song starring Joe Cheng and Selina of S.H.E, u will again feel ur tear tap running profusely.hehe...I am a sucker for this kind of things right now.
"The rose" by A-Sang
The only english song in this whole series coz our dear male lead is an Ang-Moh. Quotes his sister, " I sing this song to make u sleep coz this is the only english song I know and then you are the english-speaking kid who only knows english."
haha......I laugh out loud at that.
Yeah...that's all for now. While Let me continue my 3sec heated craze with the series b4 I let go.

Kyumei Byoto 24 Ji 3
Let me share with you my views on the new season of Emergency Room 24 Hr (the Japanese name is on top as my title).
A title shot of the show
Another picture of the lead characters in Season 3.
This series is believed to be the Japanese answer to American version of "E.R" series. As Japanese is known to be abled to localise foreign product to fit into their culture, this perception is not alien.
But this series has this uniqueness which I am not denying,and it is realli good even though you dun see the American version as they are based in totally different settings altogether
Initially, I had this negative perception about this new season as I dun like the cast. They have practically changed everyone except Eguchi Yosuke. As you may have guessed, I am a staunch fan of the second series with the smoldering chemistry between Dr Shindo (Eguchi) and Heart Specialist (Matsuyuki Yasuko). So since there is no chemistry between Eguchi and Matsushima Nanako, I hate a bit. But since I have done a research on it, I might as well take a second look at the drama again.
I must say, the plot and the setting is very very fantastic even though the cast has changed. An inspiring storyline there, with reflection on the history of Tokyo.
Tokyo as a cosmopolitan city and certainly a global one, depends very very much on its status as a global city. Since the Shogunate Era, it is aredi one of the more established city in Japan. But it has withstand a certain number of disasters since then. One of which is the 1923 Great Kanto Earthquake that hit Tokyo and other areas. This earthquake totally destroyed Tokyo's aredi crowded, divided areas -- Yamanote and Shitamachi. The division can still be seen today. This earthquake changed the structure of Tokyo and raise the awareness of the potential of earhtquake in Tokyo. The neccessary precautions and the emergency plans must be there since Tokyo now is an important base for a lot of TNMCs and so on. Anything happened there could be disasterous.
Rubbles everywhere during the 1923 Earthquake.
Houses are down like paper houses, killing a lot of people, resulting in massive losses
I think this show must have done the research on this. and Again bring on the awareness that may have waned over the years.
Great show that u must watch. I still think that I have a lingering tendency to give myself a reason to convince me to watch the show. hehe
If anyone of you are interested in the comparison studies of "E.R." and this "kyumei Byoto 24 Ji", can ask me for the copy of my group research paper.hehe

Pain in the entire hand till back
This guy is very very expert at Badminton. Mind u, I din have Warm-ups which is bad. And I lack of the stamina for the entire 2hr game. Darn, He's good and I feel I must be up to his level even bare minimum. That's y I endure the whole game with pain now.
Yeah,I know I am very very stubborn. But I can help it, I'll switch to auto gear to rise to the challenge. hehe.
Now I get the consequence. Haiz. Wonder how to play mahjong tml.
By the way, I was being aimed by him and his shuttlecock. This is the 1st time I am being aimed instead of me aimed at people.
Haiz....Getting old.

Games anyone??
Have been quite busy going out, sponging off my mum I guess. Yeah...
Then went to the library and planning for quite a few things like badminton games with my sisters. Hehehe...my hands are very very itchy. Yeah..very....Guess I miss the times when I have to train with my teammates. Very precious moments indeed.
Yeah, Had been missing games lah, like ....erm....Rounders, Basketball, Captain's ball, netball, squash, running 2.4 km (u may think I am siao), swimming and badminton.
Yeah, I am the crazy gal who loves the game but no 1 wants to play with me and I mind getting dark-skin. A tad too lazy to exercise though I like the games. hehehe
Very confusing isnt it? Well, that is me. I dun 1 to paint a very beautiful picture of myself. But Life afterall is full of conflicting choices isnt it?
Oh, by the way, I made another round of buns again. This time more like the ones that are being sold outside but I think the dough too wet liao...I will kip trying...hahaha
