i knew i wasnt supposed to go when i'm so broke.. but how can i resist? Wala Wala with WS, Ibu, YX, MT and Ah Hai was simply fantastic.. of course not to forget the band Unxpected.. the songs were great too.. "Wake Me Up When September Ends", "What's Up", and the comical "I'll Survive".. LoL.. didnt have my wine though i'm very gianz for it.. just beers.. Kilkenny is nice!!

met Princess of Swazi on the bus stop to Holland V too.. SHE WAS STALKING ME!! ewwww.. hahah..

garang guni at Hougang area to help COR today.. old but still strong!! my group covered 13 blocks, with me as the leader!! hahah.. but leader or no leader, not much different.. just 'knock-knock-collect-collect'.. shiong.. i really dont understand y garang guni so shiong and yet i agreed to help out? someone enlighten me please.. hahah.. maybe WS or Ah Hai got the answer.. y LKK le still want to help out ar? hahah..

sleeping time.. too tired!!

Of wuxia and religion

found some wuxia fanatic as me!! TL, HZ and V-jie!! hahah.. a mere supper turned out to be a night out session of wuxia discussion.. of Yang Guo, Guo Jing, Huang Rong, Xiao Long Nu, Yideng, Huang Yao Shi, Xiao Shi Yi Lang, Jing She Lang Jun, Xuzhu, Lao Lao, Wang Yu Yan etc etc.. hahaha..

fight fight fight.. precious swords and stances and inner strength.. of love and romance.. haha.. simply love 'gu dai' drama!!

talked to V-jie on the way back to hall about religion.. well, first of all, let me say, i do believe in a 'higher-being' up there.. but i just dont really subscribe to any of the religion yet.. well, the reason..

i do believe in a 'higher-being' because there r still many things tat the modern science cannot explain yet.. a very good example will be how come all the C, N, Na, Ca, Cl, H, O, S (basically all your chemical compound) can form into a person WITH A CONSCIOUS AND CONSCIENCE?? it is just a bunch of elements becoming some compound.. where the conscious and conscience come from??

i dont subscribe to any religion due to various reasons.. well, if all the religions in the world r true, the how come within the same religion there is so many fractions and subgroups? y cant they merge to become 1? wat with the different belief if they r worshiping the same god?

and i have various other reasons which i dont think is suitable to put up on my blog.. but if u want to know more, talk to me directly, i'll discuss more with u.. if u try to convert me, then be prepare to argue alot.. cheers.. =)

today got free coffee from Starbucks!! get free coffee, but can make donation to the Salvation Army.. whee~~ on the spur of the moment, jio-ed a few ppl to get coffees!! tot the one in Westmall is Starbucks but it is not.. panicked and in the end changed to Bukit Panjang Plaza.. hahaha.. a bit ulu.. still, for the free coffee~~ hahah.. i did donate though.. YX with her new cam, YL with her ATM card, HZ in her blazer,V-jie with her usual style, LT with his usual jovial self.. impromtu-ness.. high-ness..

i remembered last year de, i went with WP for the free coffee.. hahha.. at Raffles Place or was it Suntec? Should be Raffles Place.. haha..

met with a weirdo taxi drive though.. just plain weird.. arrgghh.. he seems to be anti-PAP.. and he kept talking about PAP and how bad LKY & LHL and stuff like tat.. we ignored him le.. still of no use.. arrgghh..

Soup of the Day

i'm sick and tired of thinking the same thing every time i got back to hall.. arrrgghh.. get out of my mind, please.. i wish i can dont care.. but i cant stop but be reminded of it.. damn it..

got this phrase from WP's blog.. "And all I need is your laughter to see me through the day."

on a brighter note, FYP was interesting, though a bit tiring.. a lot of walking.. theoretically my FYP haven start, cos the protocol is not yet here.. but the anticipation is enuf to cause excitement.. the discussion about wat we r going to do, the prospect of the project and the opportunity to get close to nature r too exciting.. well, minus the boring literature review, and it will be a perfect FYP.. haha.. got to be very independent for this project..

Soup Restaurant with Ting and Rosy.. the rest cant make it.. their business, i dont care.. bitching about was good to relief stress.. the food was nice.. ice-cream after tat was sinful, but heck, life is short, enjoy it.. crapping was fun too.. haha.. too much 'exhaust air' will make u crap a lot.. hahha.. apply to Rosy..

B1 B2 & B3

not basement 1, 2 and 3.. is bitch 1, 2 and 3.. haha.. *stop it girlz*

todat at NIE Canteen met a very irritating auntie.. was queing at the Yong Tauhu stall first while my friends go and select.. then when they were done, it was me and my other friend turn.. well, there was this auntie at the back tat 'ngiam' us.. okay, i admit, it was a bit not nice for us to do tat.. but, hello, it's very common wat.. then nehmind lor, she 'ngiam' lor, then we oledi wanted to let her first de, but she continue to 'ngiam'.. irritated and i just said 'so u want or dont want?'.. and she wanna pick a fight with me.. WTH (>.<)"'

*sigh* if u say nicely, i'll let u go first.. but i just can't stand the attitude she gave us..

was a very productive day.. finished 3 chapters.. or is it 4? lost count.. can do half of the pass year paper.. not bad, ehh.. hahaha..

watched TV with Pat and YX.. and the B1, 2 and 3 came out of nowhere.. hahah.. we were like "stop being a B", "hei you, B".. hahaha.. funny.. hilarious.. a good way to de-stress.. haha.. and Pat was really crazy the whole night.. something is wrong with her.. hahah..

was on a money saving mode.. bohoo~~ somebody give me some money.. haahahha..

Unexpected Day

was totally an unexpected day..

the orientation for the Entrepreneurship module was unexpectedly interesting.. we really played FOC-style team bonding games.. but you dont feel too childish.. i guess is the way the instructors conduct it bah.. really interesting.. got to know more ppl too.. it was amazing, how those ppl tat attend the same lectures as me for the pass 3 years, yet i dont know them.. haha.. today was a good chance to meet those ppl tat i usually wont talk to de.. great!!

went to Wala Wala with Ibu, WS, MT, Van.. got the band Unxpected.. cool~~ the songs r nice.. unexpectedly, not too crowded also.. wat happen to the usual crowded Saturday bar?? i can only wonder~~ didnt had much alcoholic drinks.. just 1 bottle of red wine, shared between 5 ppl.. then 2 glasses of beer only.. wanted to drink white wine, but dont have the chance.. haha.. nehmind, next time.. kinda addicted to wine recently.. haha.. whoosh~~ should go chill out more often.. hahah.. but sure will burn a hole in pocket.. haha..

the trip back to hall was unexpectedly fast.. but i realised tat, i was from Holland V, not town.. no wonder so fast.. hahah.. and surprisingly i still got the energy and sober-ity to blog.. hahah.. kinda 'seh' when in the taxi, but so energetic now.. haha..

shall go and sleep now..

Decided - I'll be happy~~

was listening to the radio just now and the DJ read out a story.. well, the story was not very important, the important part is the moral of the story..

no matter wat the situation we are in, we can choose how we 'feel'.. we can choose to be happy or not.. we may not be able to change the situation, the weather, the way people behave, but one thing is definite, we can choose how we behave, choose how we react, choose how things are going to affect us.. yeah, ppl tend to say "easier said than done".. but did you really try? dont think it can be done? read on, and u need witness, i can provide it..

i remember there was once i lost my camera at Sentosa and my friend asked me "how come you dont seems to be affected by it (the losing of camera)?".. well, can't remember wat i said exactly, but something like - well, crying and wallowing in my bad luck wont bring my camera back, instead, y not just gather my energy to find it, if cannot find, then enjoy the rest of the day like nothing happen..

and yeah, if you read "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People", in the first habit, is Proactive.. it is basically about how you can decide how stimulus (wat is happening) going to affect you.. tat means you have the freedom to choose how to response, to get angry, to get ammused, to be happy, to be full of self-pitying etc etc.. well, you yourself determine it.. nobody can..

yes, i know it is hard to do it immediately but y not just try? well, y not decide tat today you will be happy and be happy!!

*this post was dedicated to 3 of my friends in particular.. you know who you are.. and for the rest, hope you all find wisdom in this entry.. cheers~~

To my friend

hope you will get ok soon.. i know it may take some time.. so just take some time to calm down.. we will be here to help and support you, if you need any.. cheers..

the Deaf Run, Van B'day Party and some rambling

went to the Deaf Run early (and i meant really early, ~yawn~) in the morning.. 6km run/jog.. but i didnt run the whole journey.. ran for like less than half.. then walk the rest.. haha.. it seems like my stamina is still not tat good.. shall train more, and hopefully one day i can run a full marathon.. as usual, any RSPHI outing will be fun.. though didnt do much, just run/jog/walk* then had brunch together, still enjoyable..

after the run back to hall to shower rest a bit and get ready to go to Van's b'day party.. overslept, cos too tired.. haha.. luckily not too late.. the bbq and b'day celebration was fun.. had lots of prawn and sotong.. ~whoosh~ sang alot too.. we were like trying our best to outdo each other in singing old songs.. and i really mean ancient songs!! hahaha..

now i'm back in hall.. supposed to print some stuff for tomolo lesson and get some reading done before tomolo presentation.. but blogging and reading blog instead.. haha..

these few days, the thought of dying and death haunting me again.. for those who dont know, i'm very scared of dying/death.. the mere thought of it send shiver down my spine.. but dont know y these few days the thought keep haunting me.. having trouble pushing it out of my mind.. arrgghh..

anyway, sometimes i had things tat i wanted to blog about, but then knowing tat some of the person involved maybe reading my blog and i dont want to hurt his/her feeling, i ended up didnt blog.. should i continue like tat? though it is not directly fabricating lies, but telling partial truth is also a form of lying.. ~sigh~ i think i shall not telling partial truth anymore.. i'll just blog watever i want.. it is my blog wat, i can blog anything and everything as long as i dont break any law!!!

okay, shall finish printing my stuff and go sleep..
