Friday Birthday Celebration

Hmm.. the previous two entries are long. LOL. bro feedback it's like reading harry potter.. chionging every chapter.. LOL.. psps.. XD i think this entry will be long too..

Anw, this is what happened on friday. nothing much happened during the day itself coz i woke up late, told u i dreamt of that ghostly scenes. i woke up, i started typing my blog. occasionally mom called me and stuff, did a bit of laundry like any other day and i was thinking of going cristofori later on to practice my piano n the pedalling stuff.. never really tried the song before.

So i typed. and played abit of neopets, i hit my first 200,000NP in my bank account. i remembered starting it out with 30,000 plus 3 months ago. and i got sian and tired of receiving e-mails from school. told us to buy textbook, need to order before august if not they will treat it like we don't want. but please, who so motivated to check e-mail every day during the holidays? they should like give chance until around 1st week of august.. anw, i told BH about it and he oso haven heard of it.

When i finished typing the blog, it's almost 3pm. and going to meet HM at around 7pm coz he said he'd come and fetch me, than pam (who will be celebrating her fren's bday party at orchid country club), then we'll head on to thomson for dinner. Hm sms that we'll meet abit later around 7.20 since he still haven get the car from his dad.

Anw, i bathed and get ready around 4pm, den went on to cristofori. i went without calling coz it seemed that any branch won't be so packed at this hour but i am wrong. it seemed that there're quite a few studios occupied and i walk in to rent a practice room. they gave me studio one. walked in, see a red piano. opened the cover, erm.. i saw plastic. i said plastic because it really is plastic and the piano is quite old it looked like the keys had turned yellow. the quality is something like those electronic keyboard, just that it has 88 keys and it is huge enough for u to classify it as a piano and it has pedals.

No choice, i started practising. now i missed that cristofori piano in studio 2 and 6.

After practicing, went home and can't really remember what i did. think i played more on the keyboard and walked around, entertaining pillow n stuff and it's almost 7 something gotta go meet HM downstairs. so reached and stood there waiting then very soon he arrived. so he told me his dad said there's something wrong with the tyre and later on gotta go check.

Then we tok and passed yishun and he told me to call pam since he's driving. so i did and pam said ok that she'd be waiting at the main entrance of orchid country club. then ok for orchid country club, i'd been there once or twice when i was young so i din't really noe the way but i supposed it to be somewhere near khatib and HM was talking to me and not long after, we seemed to have passed by orchid country club without stopping. so he told me to call pam again and told her we need sometime coz we're overcrossed and need to u-turn back, and maybe sometime to check his tyres first.

Den HM head straight on and told me that he better stop to check his tyres since he felt very uneasy about it so he had no other better place to stop and u-turn but at seletar reservoir. den he decided to stop and he told me to stay in the car and he go down to check.

Den before he left, he told me to get some sweets to eat from his cover at the front of me, but i opened and found nothing. LOL. i was thinking where got sweets den he opened the rear end of the car, seemed like trying to look for something that he can helped himself to check the tyre. well, i am a vehicle noob. i wondered if i am pro on tyres den i can offer to just leave the car and help him look out. LOL.

Den it took quite sometime and he seemed worried or wat so when i was intending to leave the car and asked him if it's ok, he walked to my door there and squatted down, so i was thinking maybe he's checking on that tyre beside my door and so i can't open the door either. so i took some time figuring out how to switch on his window panel den when i did, i asked, "how's things?" den i saw him lighting a sparkler.

I was wondering. why a sparkler to test tyre pumps?? is it something to do with heat and pressure and if it's a very traditional-manual-DIY way.. LOL. den he got his sparkler lighted and he stood up and shouted happy bday, den pam appeared somewhere beside him with a cake on her hand, trying very hard to maintain the candle fire.. LOL!!!!

i was very very very surprised and stunt i think i took like 4 seconds to realise what happened. LOL i was laughing all the way when they sang happy bday song to me n wanted me to make a wish, LOL. i at first thought pam had hidden behind his car with the cake all these while. but they said pam had reached there earlier first, and they had tricked me about the thomson thingy, pam's SIM fren's party and the tyre and many more. They had prepared food earlier here and we're going to have BBQ there, right in seletar, over-looking the reservoir. LOL!!

I think my face is like this for like.. 10 minutes?? ----> (00)

LOL.

so HM and pam gave me their presents. HM bought a stalk of sunflower and a turtle doll wearing a shirt that he squeezed so hardly onto the doll, with a message written on it, and a S-shaped pendum necklace. Hhahah.. i really haven get back into senses at that point of time, and we're already taking pics. haha.. it really was a pleasant surprise.

So we walked our way to the spot that they had laid their things there and where pam had waited and pam gave me her present. omg. it's a self-made sketch book and inside are all the pics full of memories from the sunway trip, monopoly game, play concert, my cousin n me, clarke quay trip, shadow n pillow, al's bday. LOL. oh man i totally love it!!! it's full of thoughts and memories haha, thanks pam, i love you!! she stil go n develop the pics we took, and i recalled all those stencils she bought at spotlight, those paper-by-weight she bought in popular, actually not for her neoprint book, nor her sis' wanted it, but for making this sketch book. and other stuff i recognised she asked me about some jap words written ribbon sold in daiso n some color handphone glitter stickers she bought in lot one, actually all used for this book oso. haha was real touched!!! THANKS LEI PAM!!

So we settled ourselves down and HM set the fire but it took a tedious time and effort. but he managed to get it after using some fire starters as borrowed from the group beside us. haha thanks everyone. den pam n hm bought crabsticks, sausages, mushroom, eggplant, chicken, fish balls, cheese tofu, satay and stuff to bbq. den oso got marshmallows, snacks, potato chips, wine/champagne and iced frozen green tea. haha.. real fun.

So we did the bbq-ing, and ate and tok and looking at the nice and dark scenery. we managed to bbq for like.. 3 hrs?? before the fire died down and so we were getting full, we decided to do something else, like taking pics. so we did a lot of silly things, like jumping in front of the camera, playing with shadows, act cute, play with camera effects..

Den it starts to drizzle! LOL. we're so hurried, that we quickly pack up. and there was a lot of things to pack up so at first we're sayin can we just run and leave those trash behind like that. LOL. but we're moral citizens so we didn't. den we quickly packed up.. n i noticed, it was 12am!! my bday is here!! i'd turned 20!!! ah!! haha.. packing up rubbish beside a raining reservoir. LOL. den we hurried to HM's car and put the things.

N i received a msg. quite a few min before 12am. It's al! from his msia line!! but just a simple msg sayin happy bday. haha.. i was happy enough alr. at least he remembered and took the effort on sendin a msg at 12am. pam n hm oso say happy bday to me again.

Den the drizzle stops. den hm suggest we play with the remaining sparklers. haha. so we did, and we took pics with the sparklers again. haha when we're finished, we get back into the car and we were saying lets go some mac and have something nice to drink. so hm drove to the mac in 768 and we ordered some drinks. den we sat and tok again. haha nice.. can see everyone is tired.. thanks everyone. pam tml morn got sch n hm tml morn oso got tuition. so we decided to take our leave at ard 2am.

Hm drove us back. everyone in my hse in already asleep, and after bathing n reading a bit, i went to sleep.

Real thanks everyone.

=)

*btw, sh (my sis) just told me she got her driving license ytdy le! wa!!!

Thursday Birthday Outing

Ok. this is the second part of that long long blog entry i wrote for wednesday. so you may like to read the wednesday bday outing first. haha..

N i somehow hoped this entry is not disclosed to too much people whom i don't even know. XD

It's another super super long entry.

Anw, this is what happened on thursday.

Going to meet al at 2pm at amk hub for a movie. anw, received a msg from him when i woke up at around 9.30am that he told me reached sg around 8am plus. wa.. so early. then was sayin he got nth to do so i thot he meant we meet earlier, but he said his bro is having his graduation day today, so his family is here and they will be back around noon to have lunch together and help his bro to pack up his room, coz he's moving out n nt stay with him anymore.

So ard 1pm plus he asked if we could meet 2.30pm instead as he was still helpin to do the packing up and stuff. so said ok. and when i almost reached amk, he said he might be 30min late coz he was just making his way here and there seemed to be some traffic jam or wat (he's coming by car with his family). so he told me to go buy the tix first in case we're too late for it, so i went and i saw that the suitable timings for us were either the simpsons, or the thai ghost movie alone. he wanted alone. so got it, and i found a nice cosy place to surf net. LOL. it's just somewhere beside the counter.

Surfed around, cant even go youtube, the system there just blocks everything that may seem hazardous. so i go yahoo movies, den go read the review about alone. surprisingly, the movie was rated 4 stars and many good feedbacks. read a bit of the story line, so .. hmm.. seemed ok, the director was from the movie shutter. and so it will be scary i supposed.. n the reviewer said the thing she hate about the movie is the loud and scary sound effects. and the movie's 1.5hrs long. oh no. 1.5hrs of torture. LOL.

The connection timing was up for me, so i got bored and left and went to the toilet and den went on to the centre area looking down the whole of amk hub. hmm nice scenery. saw a lot of students there and i den noticed that many students are queuing up for the movies too. the whole place seemed very noisy because i was on my mp3 and i can still hear murmurs. while waiting, i was spending some time reflecting on that point of my life. saw many lower secondary students, they were like hanging out in groups of either all guys or girls.. and those mixed groups tend to be on a strong urge of flirting motive. girls will squeal and guys will cheekily laugh. those were the days. when you start to find bgr interesting. i wonder if i'm so old to reflect on these stuff.

Somewhere far, i saw a couple, and i think they were around my age, they seemed so zz .. girl walks, guy pulls on her hand, girl turns and smile, guy pulls harder, girl tries to free her hand but still laughing, guy makes a harder pull and girl falls in his hug. girl pulls away and guy chases. WTF. i was thinking, is this love?? been reflecting on this issue, maybe this is more of intimate relationship den wat you call an intellectual love? or, this is part and parcel of relationships? the childish games you play when you're so called in love, and the guy chases the girl with the girl smiling.. zzz.. i dun believe in that now.

Was replying msg to El on some module thingy, den al came. ok he made a silent appearance. doing nth but jus standing silently beside me lookin down and out of the railing like wat i was doing and i was thinking, who is this den.. oh.. he seemed tanned.. and the first thing he said is, "hey i cant recognise you lei." the second, "i just reached, btw, my family is here oso, they came here to shop." the third, "wait very long hor?" i can only.. "haha, ya".

anw, we continue to stand there, since he reached ard 3pm n our movie is showin on 3.30pm. so we stood there to tok. told me about his diving trip, his bro's moving out, our jap class timetable, and asked about my life during hols, the sunway trip, and how much is the movie tix. LOL. n he told me he grew fat. erm.. do guys ask girls this? "i grow fat le hor?" den girl said, "no la.. dun worry" in order not to hurt his ego. i tot it's the other way round.

some silent moments here and there, but the movie is showing just in time. hall 6. the light's blinking, let's go. so we went in, and it's big inside. i love cathay. we took an escalator up inside after showing our tix to the staff, and we wanted to go to the toilet. he was telling me that the movie alone is nice as heard from his bro. n he stil ask if i am afraid of watchin scary movie. we alr bought the tix! i told him the most if i'm scared i'd just cover my eyes. and we're discussing wat movies we watched recently. den we got lost! cant find the toilet.. coz it's in a secretive door and when you opened it, it's a long flight of stairs down. zzz..

Went in and we settled down. continued our chatting and looking at trailers and we both agreed that the new shows coming up aren't that nice. coz they were just plain exaggerating. but he told me there's a new show.. called stardust? coming up and it's also something about astronomy. and surprisingly, a lot of people in the cinemas. the whole place half occupied, mostly by students. and the seats, they're great, something like grandcathay. you can have a nice time resting your head.

So very soon, the movie started. walao. first few seconds already eerie and scary enough. the cg effects are impressive and the music is quite nice, if you want to expect from thai. there's really quite a standard there. the few lil boys sitting in front of us very funny. they were two guys, but they keep saying things like, "惨了!要出来了!" "嘻嘻,你怕!" "你才怕!" lol. childish.

i really find it a torture. luckily i got my $20 IPzone jacket. big enough to cover me and my face. LOL. actually i oso din cover my eyes part la. it's still the same isn't it. i still see what i have to see. i got shocked so many times. many ghost suddenly pop out scenes. den it's really gross and scary. worse than the ghost of mae nak x100. and the fact here is, you can always expect when the ghost will come out, but u still will get shocked, because of the sound effects la!! and i hate night time. everytime it's night time, ghost will sure come out. den not only come out once one lor, it's a combo set of 2s and 3s. can give you heart attacks.

al still seemed quite calm, but i duno he got scared or nt, actually the way he postured his hands oso a bit like covering his mouth or wat haha but ok i don't 酸 him. but we tried to tok and divert our attention to people in the cinema coz he and me kept lookin at other ppl gettin scared. he told me to look at one very funny boy sitting few seats away beside him. that boy really put his legs up on his chair and buried his face in his knees lor. LOL!! den got one scene really scare me n him. i hate that scene la!!! the lady alr know she's haunted by ghost in the old house, she still got mood to lie in the bath tub and lie in a way only a small part of her face is out of the water. damn it la!! like this you sure will expect something to happen liao lor. suddenly the ghost appeared and she screamed so loud den the effects and music effects so wa!! i think the whole cinema can jump out of their chairs.

still, the movie plot is great. i think the twist in the ending is good, that explains everything, good literature there but i think if you watched this movie, you're bound to see about at least 20times of ghostly scenes. we left the movie feeling still cold and hairy after that. haha.

still had sometime before we went to orchard to meet the others, so i asked him if he wanna play piano, coz there's a cristofori music sch there and since i'm their student, we can rent a practice room. he seemed excited but keep sayin, "ok den i see u play, coz i forgot wat songs i can play." 谦虚。anw, we went in, it's a nice cosy lil place, i asked the clerk if there's a prac room available. she seemed new, coz she seemed a bit nervous, haha but very nice person. she said that the rate will be $4.50 per hr, and i can't just do for half an hr. den she wanted to check my cstfr student card. gave her, she like can't find my particulars.. LOL.. but she said the rooms actually are free from 12pm to 5pm, and since, it's 4 something, she 破例一次, give us free for 1/2 hr!! wa!!! so good!!! den we excitedly went in. i love her! haha.

ok.. so the piano is oso cstfr brand, but after watchin al played, i shall change my perception. it's nt the piano's fault if it sounds bad, it's the player. coz the piano jus turned into something so grand n beautiful when he played songs on it. not like the stiff and sour notes i get when i played. 不愧是 grade 8. he played quite a few songs on it. but most not complete coz he said he nv play by memory, it's always thru the scores.. wa.. den he played a bit of the piece from dancing mad, he wanted to play one winged angel, but forgot. he wanted to see me play, so i played the chopsticks. i think he's grinning all the while, being entertained by a noobie. but he stil said not bad. he wanted me to play the fur elise, but he burst out laughin when he saw how stiff my 5/4 fingers are. LOL. i agreed coz when i see him play that same piece it's a totally different scenario. still he comforted that he's also a noob in violin coz he's posture seemed inaccurate so he often feel achy after playin. den he taught me, if i continue learning, i will come to a pt of time the teacher will request that i play with a coin on my hand and make sure that coin never falls off, in order to achieve that correct posture.

Anw, i tried tenderness in the air, and he seemed quite surprise. n he corrected some parts which i had overlooked all these while. he seemed quite happy that a noobie can play abit of ff songs. n when i stopped on the part which i had learnt until, he was like, "huh?? very gd wat? why nv continue learning?"

anw, he said this (not exactly quoted), "you noe, i really feel happy and nice to have a fren to play piano together. especially ff songs. you learn more la. so far, only two person i felt nice playin with, other than my sis(she is grade7), one is you, and one is BY(his best fren since childhood, now in SIM)."

so he continued playin his songs, i think he's really pro, coz he seemed to play w/o lookin at the keyboard.. just thru his fingers.. i wonder.. is it this is what u get when u made frens with the piano? cool. he played some classicals, like mondo alla turca (turkish march), the song that 大S played on the piano in 流星花园 for 道明氏's mother, battle w gilgamesh, to zanarkard (that i had it recorded in video!) and the song i love now, unfathomed reminiscence. duno why, he said dun let anyone see the videos. zzzz.

i think he realli play very well, coz a few times, i see ppl walking past to stop and look in. den we're like stil having the aftermath of the ghost scenes. coz we both got shocked. LOL.

i think we played for more than half an hr, so we decided to leave. den he walked past the textbook column, he showed me his violin book dat he's learning on now. i think it's not easy and the score pieces alr seemed difficult.

So we went to the mrt to take train, and we're talkin about the orbs on the photographs and the show vacancy we had watched, and he told me that he thinks alone is nt that scary. shutter and the ghost game is more scary. i think he's still scared lor. den he oso showed me some of his frens pics, the one which he went to diving w, and his course mates.

very soon we reached orchard, and hj was alr there, at orchard lib, den pam oso reaching so we met at orchard ctrl stat. real thanks to hj, pam, al n kel for turning up and for spending ur time n efforts. haha.. i really had a great time. so we stood around n hj gave me her present. and she said a very sweet happy bday to me, haha, thanks lei!! i really love it. it's a marie kitten cup! i'm now using it and i told my mom i will drink more water becoz of this cup. LOL. childish.

all of us were dead hungry so we decided to head to taka basement for some finger food. we each bought smth to eat and decided to go to kinokuniya to walk around. why everyone eat so fast?? i remembered we're like spending 10 min going up the escalator and i only finished my last bite when i reached the door step of kino.

So we went in and walked around at the english section. took some pics here and there and we were lookin around most of the books and most of the books are as usual, very expensive. was attracted to books like signs, UFOs, apocalypse and stuff and there were several books talking about apocalypse 2012.. are we going to die?? haha.. seemed that al is oso very interested in these kind of stuff. pam is like very interested in reality/life-related novels and she was at the shelf, and she told me she feel like buying this, this, this and that, which is like all. LOL. but we both agreed it's very ex coz each book cost like 30 bucks at least.

Got attracted to a book about birthdays. so you check on the date that you're born then you see what it says about u. so al n me were reading it and looked at it first, it said things like he's very cool and cautious of everythin n is not easy for him to express himself and stuff and he said it's very true. den he said look at mine, and he think it's exaggerating cos the first sentence said "you're so vibrant and attractive." T.T den i asked pam n hj here den we read about theirs. it seemed true too, coz it said about pam being a bit too shy? or stuff about her type A personality.. den for hj said that she thinks too much sometimes, which she agreed. LOL. den we moved on to the next shelves, like many more such books on astrology. den duno where pam n hj went to liao. den al showed me a book about i-ching, sayin he once did a research project about this, but he forgot all liao. LOL.

Anw, we're waiting for kel to knock off, so we walked around for sometime, and was intending to go to the chinese sections, when suddenly we got attracted to 2 big books about the forest creatures and the ocean. so al n me stopped to look at it. flipped, a lot of colorful pics inside and many weird but detailed collection of species, ecological details and stuff. den awhile later, pam n hj oso came to join and we're lookin at weird insects. eeeee.. caterpillars all so disgusting, but they're really colorful.

then pam said kel said he coming to meet us le so we better go, but we got attracted to another two books, one about human body, one about singapore's ecological systems. den we flipped through, den i said further there's still two more books and one of it is universe!!! aiya, but we really gotta go le, so we left to meet kel. rmbred pam offered us the wine gum and it's... not very nice coz it stucked on my tooth and each bite is quite a pain. very sticky.

Walked a stretch of road there and we saw kel! long time no see kel! he jus knocked off from his work, so he's wearing some office wear. wa.. look very formal. kel gave me a handshake and said happy bday to me. haha duno why i got shy, coz seldom we have this kind of things happening rite, it's nt like it's ur bday everyday. haha but i felt happy. haha. den al said, "i haven say happy bday to her yet lei, coz isn't her bday sat?" LOL. but in the end he stil din say. kel wanted to show us to the way to modesto, the italian restaurant. oo first time going there. thanks kel! so we spent some time walking there. it's a long walk, and i rmbred talking to al about NDP and stuff, and i wanted to drink my water so i passed him my bag of present hj gave. and when i'm done and wanted it back, he offered to help me take since he wasn't carryin anything. er.. nice.

we finally reached modesto, but there seemed to be a lot of ppl inside so we have to sit on the outside, and so we settled down and started looking at the menu. wa.. all the names in italian and i really can't make sense of it but there's a long description for each in english and it takes a sentence to describe something like a garlic bread, so you really need patience. so we ordered minestrone soup, tuna pizza, salmon pasta and baked rice to be shared. while hj ordered chicken sausage pizza for herself and it seemed quite huge too. nice!

so before the food came, we took some pictures. and the waiter there can't take good pics haha coz it's very or totally blur. and when the food finally comes, we started eating. the garlic bread and the soup is nice. as for the pasta, i think it's nicer than the rice, coz i like the cheesy taste of the pasta. so we tok and ate. and everyone including myself, except al laughed at me when i made a weird sound that sounds like a passing motor when i almost dropped my pizza when i wanted to get a piece to my plate. lol. we laughed like 10 minutes? and since we're sitting by the road, any passing motor again triggers the laughter.. T,T

really, 不关你的事,就可以笑得很开心。

after the long 2 hr meal, we're so full that we dropped the idea of having a tiramisu dessert. and i spent some time with everyone's help, opened the present that kel n al gave to me. it's oso a creative product! LOL. i was shocked when i saw the creative bag again. LOL. was asking pam, will HM oso give me creative product?? den she said duno. LOL. they gave me a pink size-fitting mp3 protector. and i think it's cute haha coz when it fits on my mp3, i really think it looks like.. a kind of candy or toy. but.. ok la! haha.. now it dun fit that blue purse i had alr. XD.

anw, during the meal, since al sits directly opposite of me, he somehow asked me this, after lookin at the shirt i'm wearing. "isn't your shirt from body glove?" n i remembered quite sometime ago when he wanna give me a discount card from body glove i said i never heard of this shop before, maybe sg dun have. the first thought i had was, where are you looking at?? coz the body glove wordings are just somewhere around my tummy, or higher. T.T had to explain that i got it from sunway. anw, from a few conversations i had w him ytdy, he called me by my name. it seemed kinda perculiar coz i really find it weird he do so, he seldom called me by my name. it was, "ooi, or eii" or nth at all, last time.

forget it.. we decided to go somewhere to take photos, so we went in to the forums, coz kel wanna go to the toilet, and den when he came out, we're locked in so we have to exit by another entrance, which is somewhere near modesto. so we decided to go to hilton hotel's lobby to take pic. someone performing jazz piano, quite nice.. n the flowers in the lobby, real nice but they're not faked!! it's real!! wa... so we played around n took pics.. n a while later, we decided to leave. this time, as we're takin pics, i was holdin on to the bag of presents when al was takin pics. and when we're leavin he came and said, "let me help u take, because my things (the ffvii game i lent him) are inside." T.T

Walked the long way back again and hj wanted to buy smth from BK, so we waited outside n tok. made our way to the orchard mrt, coz tml kel n pam got sch n work early tml. while everyone was on the escalator, i said thanks again to everyone for coming and their presents, haha.. den hj n kel said i said many times liao.. haha but i stil wanna say. den al so out of the sudden, said, "happy bday to u". LOL. sorry, but i duno why, i said, "why u so suddenly say?" LOL. oops, i think i crushed his ego.

So hj is taking bus home, so we bid gd bye to her and left for the train. we saw someone from our year1 sem1 jap tc class. haha.. she seemed to be working somewhere near den she's with a guy, who seemed shy seeing us. LOL. pam said she dun seemed our age. erm.. a bit.. coz kel said, i thot why that auntie smiling at me. oops.

so the train come and we went in n we're mostly too tired to tok. so we spoke a bit here and there and kel left at yck.. thanks kel!! n we head on to admiralty, n after bidding gdbye to al, we left for home. reached hm, family was asking, why creative again? LOL. u creative fan ah.. hahaha.. read a book and sleep.

BUT!

BUT!!!

duno why, i woke up so suddenly on my own around 4.30am. shit. and i can't help but think about the ghostly scenes. coz most of the scenes the lady saw the ghost when she was sleeping. wa..... den i duno why i keep peekin my eyes open and i got relieved that i see nth scary if nt i duno wat i will do. but it's hard to fall aslp again and it's hard to divert my attention to something else. creepy la! n i kept hearing my aunt's breathing. wa!! gt a ghostly scene about this oso. no one slping beside u, but u hear breathing. ahhhh... i was so relieved when i opened my eyes the next time to see broad day light. i love day light.

Funny thing is, al msg me this afternoon and asked if i had a nice slp last nite coz he was haunted by the movie scenes and he said he wasn't intending to think but he recalled i said, "dun think too much before slp tonight". T.T blame me for wat. LOL. After telling me to slowly prac my piano and he will do the same for his violin, he went back to msia.

Wednesday Birthday Outing

Hmm i think this will be a long post since i'm gonna update all the stuff that happened in these two days so detailedly as i wanna re-read this post to myself in the future again and again.

Again, really thanks for all who had helped me celebrate my birthday for these past two days.

So starting on wednesday.

Woke up earlier than I had expected, as said from the previous last entry, i left the house and reached on time to meet pam. we headed to lot one via train as we're going to sing k-lunch. so we were like the first customer of k-box coz the metal shutter isn't really fully opened and after we stepped in to ask if it's opened, a couple of other groups who were in for the k-lunch thingy followed.

We got a nice and big room, we wondered why, coz there's still this backrest thingy and i think the room can accommodate like a group of 6 people, but there were just only the two of us. so we started singing, and don't know why i can't sing loud maybe my vocal box not yet opened at that dawn of the day, so i sing once, pam sing once, or we sing together. As for the lunch, there's only two dishes for the week, and i missed that unagi set, so we ordered vietnamese fish (for me) n don't know what chicken (for pam) instead. a short while later, another guy came in and asked us what we wanna eat but we said we ordered already, den he said, "don't care, say again, what you wanna eat." we're like.. LOL.. what's wrong with this?

So we sang and we were getting so hungry that we were like "YEAH!" when we saw a staff pushing many trays of bento. so our food is here and we started eating, listening to songs that we won't sing but wanna see the mv kind. first time catching the jay chou's 不能说的秘密's mv. and i think the piano part of the song is nice. at that moment, the other groups in for the k-lunch, many students, duno they pon school or what, but they're noisy, screaming and laughing.

After we had our fill, we sang a series of jay chou songs and we got tired, don't know why, these days when go k-box we often won't wish to stay long. so when the clock hits 2pm, we happily leave. weird right?

We made our way to the toilet den we're saying let's take a neoprint, but don't know why, maybe it's only me, my mood dies drastically and i oso kinda influenced pam, we suddenly got real sian coz the machines we wanted to take were not servicing while the others, we are like not interested, so we decided to walk around instead.

passed by a shop called "blue"? then i went in and see if they had any bags on sale that i would like for school. so some that i saw, is quite nice but the bag size is too small, den the sales girl attend to me and she introduced to me a particular bag. that bag is un-eye-catchy, black and brown, with the strap in the middle, and nothing more. I felt that it's 耐看 on the second glance and she suggested that since the bag is too plain, i can add some accessories to it. so i decided to buy the bag($18.90) and the accessory: two transparent star, locked on golden chains and decorated with a white fluff ball, a small white cotton knitted ball and a nice white ribbon($4.90).

So, we den decided to play k-pool. we made our way in and it's very cold inside!! so i put on my $20 IPzone jacket and pam got the ball rolling. ok. we have to admit that we're very noob on this game. we spent like 45 mins on just two games. it's either the ball just won't get in or we just seemed to miss the ball. or maybe it's not our fault, just that the luck's not on the game.

Half way through the game, saw a guy looking at my direction as he was walking down the tables. and i find him so familiar. it's SF from wrs (my junior)! wa, long time no see. only then i realised that his clique is oso there. they changed in their looks too. then only did i realise that on the further side, at another corner, the group of guys playing pool, were oso from wrs. they were two years senior but i recognised their clique too. so many wrs students there, and all still friends after all these years. pam said wrs 出产好朋友。LOL.

For that second game which was started by me, i can say it's a disaster, coz after two shots we made, we're stagnant for the next 10 minutes. and we really need to get the game going so we decided to just shoot in the ball even if it's not our target but lies on a good position for it to get in. so we came to the last black ball but it seemed real disturbing coz it just won't get in! and pam n me agreed that it was cursed and whoever got the ball in will be so lucky for the day. finally, it came to the time when i shot the ball right towards the hole, but it just won't get in but paused somewhere just so outside the hole. den pam's turn. she did a light tap with it but the ball oso can't get in! creepy isn't it! den she got so frustrated she just shove the ball in with the pole. so we end the game like that and we're so not keen to start another. coz it's really very cold!

We den decided to go up to the music school at the cinema section and see if we can rent a practice room. i really do wish to play on a yamaha piano and see how it is like. so we went in and asked about the price, it's so much cheaper ($5/hr) as compared to PS' yamaha HQ (~$30/hr). so we wanted it, but the person said cannot two person go in, so we quit it and decided to go yakun for a drink instead.

pam got an iced coffee (again and forever), and i got an iced milo. den we sat and tok and chatted for sometime. after that, went to pet's station to walk around a bit den pam said we can go meet yj le. so we took our leave from there.

Reached clementi in no time and we sat around the centre there to wait for him den he's here! wa.. thanks bro, it's like you have to hurry over after your lessons. real appreciate that. so the train came just in time and we got in and we tok our way till dhoby. so we reached there, went to dhoby exchange coz pam gotta help her sis to buy a pair of shoes. so we walked around a bit then we left for ps. kinda hungry, so we went to buy some snacks or sweets and stuff from tom n stephanie. den we head to carl's jr to have a seat and buy a drink with fries and we started eating. den we tok and did some catching up there.

After that, went to carrefour's piano section den pam n me played on the piano again. and i can say, i am still very noob on piano, coz i cannot multitask and my fingers are just too stiff. haha.. but played and pam said ty is here le! can go meet her le. thanks ty too! u oso come after ur work.. 辛苦你了!

we met ty in a shoe shop as she gotta buy a new pair of shoes for her new job, den we walked around and she finally got a nice pair of shoes from dmk. den we headed to the glass house for fish n co dinner. walked our there and had some nice chats. it's getting late.

10% for birthday treats. that's the sign at the doorway and we're saying we can enjoy that. so we spent some time waiting and it's my first time there, i can say many huge groups go there for bday or wat celebration, den small groups like us tend to get squeezy and uncomfortable seats. like our first table, we got a dripping air con. after the change of tables, we ordered our food. so a plate of fried calamari to be shared, new york fish n chips for ty n me, sweet n sour fish for pam n wat.. swordfish (i forgot the name) for bento bro?? LOL.

the calamari is very nice!!it's really very very very nice. LOL. we ate it all and when our food came, we're almost half full and we really got amazed by yj's swordfish. it's huge. i think 2 or 3 person can eat that plate. but the price is still around ours. haha.. quite worth it too! den we started eating, ok i like my fish but just around the ending parts, the batter just seemed to contain clumps of salt and i don't think that's very nice when your food is so salty.

Throughout the meal, many bday singing occurred. LOL. Occurred, that word seemed weird here but, anw, if you want the bday treat, u gotta let the whole restaurant noe it's your bday coz the staff will be singing bday song for u and stuff. haha and thanks to yj! u guys want the staff to sing to me too! haha.. sorry i am too low profile la.. and shy. haha.. dun like attention, ya, but since i got it le, i must enjoy! haha.. so yj video cam it down and i got 3 fish n co staff to sing the song to me and i had a sparker on my hand. haha.. i saw one man smiling at me from far. zz.. but still, thanks everyone.. hahahahah i will not forget this!!

Anw, the present i received from them.. is a creative speaker!! thanks guys!! surely pam must have told them that my speaker is spoiling and i can't blast music in my room. LOL.. haha it's not cheap, real thanks everyone! no wonder that time pam asked me so many questions about speakers and i was like criticizing without further thoughts. oops..

But in the end, we stil din't get the 10% treat. quite wasted, coz that's 8 bucks, and that can watch a movie or wat. haha.. no la.. but real thanks to pam, yj n ty for treating me that meal!! it's not cheap XD.. real appreciated that. so we went out and decided to take pics at that famous LOVE thingy. so we took some pics, den we decided to walk back to ps to take more. on the way there, we passed by some dark road den we're sayin we can actually take pics of orbs. LOL. so we did and there's really some!!! ah!! so eerie.. den i told them about the stuff i found online.. and we even come to the extent of sayin, "我要拍Orb".. den see gt or not.. LOL..

Anw, we head to grand cathay coz ty wanna find out about the jay's movie's 首映会。wa.. the tix cost $50 on monday.. damn expensive.. so we just took some lame pics against jay's movie poster.. LOL.. and it's funny.. went to toilet, we decided to walk back to ps so can accompany bro yj to his busstop n we can take our train from there. so we did and had a nice walk back. bid gdbye to bro yj.

we took our train and we head back home.. had some nice n funny conversations in the train as well. head back home n showed my family my present.. and tested out the speaker.. I LOVE IT.

22 July 2007

first $1000

Thanks to pam for lendin me her 土豆 Dori. It's a nice cosy book, reading a slight reflection of my life, and noe that there's many things you can tok about in ur life. it's interesting. and a short and sweet book. finished readin it in a day, on my trip to hospital to see my grandma and back again.

Bought a new vacuum cleaner from novena's harvey norman with mom ytdy. it's novena becoz we went to TTS hospital. well, new shoppin centre coming up, called square two? i din really rmbr its name, but smth like that.. seemed a nice new place to hang out. that new vacuum cleaner generates a 1600cc. that seems way too powerful than the one we had and it's bigger too. i tried cleanin my room w it. omg, it's really tiring. i cant imagine doin the whole hse.

i earned my first 1000 bucks from the two kids i had been tuitionin since apr. wow~ time really flies. they're finishing on their sch syllabus, and so are the assessment books n revision i did w them.. i wonder when's my last day w them. finished, pam was waiting for me, so we decided to have dinner together. she wanted to go cwp so we went. had been waiting to use that ichiban card. so i redeemed the 20 bucks voucher and we had a nice little dinner there and even got a california temaki and soft shell crab tempura FOC home.

Had a nice gd view of the counter. we think its squeezy inside coz there's five men workin on the sushi in it. was discussin that maybe futoubang laoda got sacked coz he seemed slack. den i was commenting that many staff nowadays duno how to greet "irasshaimase" properly. den someone from the counter w a cool voice said "onegaishimasu" perfectly and i was complementing how perfect it is, den raise my head to see futoubang laoda! argh!!! pam n me spent some good time tokin abt him.. i think we two are two "hua chi" going goo-gaa-gaa on him..

N he made me a California temaki! n give it to me personally!! argh!!! (btw, becoz i ordered it and he's one of those temaki chef). i was so excited i took pics of it haha and ate it heartily. yeah i'm superficial.. that's nice~~ but pam said maybe he's a msian too.. hmm.. we're agreein that most of the msian guys look cool. ok enuff..

thanks pam!! i'm very excited about next week! haha.. u realli planned a lot for me.. really appreciate that.. i will enjoy! n i hope my first 1-1 movie outing w him .. a breeze??

19 July 2007

Wednesday trip

Went out with pam ytdy. wanted to do threadin so we went to ps to have a walk. ok i'm spending more than i should lately, and i am getting more n more naive. but i dun wan to change. i believe i'm in the naive stage of life.

so we reached dhoby exchange and have our blunch there. the sandwich i had, it's not bad. i love shopping at that kind of hrs. everyone is either schlin or workin and i'm there all relaxed and enjoyin life. the place is gettin pathetic as many shops are closed and they're selling their stuff at a very cheap rate but we stil don't see anything that we can buy.

we made our way to ps. strolled around. and i bought a pair of shoes there. the whole place was quiet and i started to notice there aren't many sgporeans around. it was raining heavily, and we're intending to make our way to grand cathay. so we took a cab there from ps. yes, we took a cab from ps to grand cathay. it's a nonsense but we realli did it. haha. the taxi fare cost $2.60. oops. so we only suffer from a few raindrops coz there isn't a proper taxi stand in front of grand cathay. so we went in and i did my threading. it's very very pain la!!! why this time so pain!! i felt like roaring inside the shop. hahaha. pam did forehead threading there too. she said my threading really seemed painful haha, but the result's not bad this time. i finally see a nice proper brow shape after all these years.

at grandcathay there got a nice shop.. it's called grammophile? am i right? i din really rmbr the shop's name but i can say its collection of vcds, dvds, cds, lds are great and professional.. they oso let you listen to whole rack of cds.. and each song inside! wa.. very generous.. and the whole place is huge.. n i like their collection of rental cds.. but it seemed ex coz it's 4 bucks for 2 days..i dun think i have that time..

so we went to see wat movie we can watch. end up, decide to watch "vacancy". it seemed like a scary movie so we got the tix for it. wanted to watch harry potter but mom wan me to watch next sun with the family. T.T ok.. my mom n aunt are harry potter fans too. was sayin, that the vacancy seemed to be a ghost story about stayin in hotels, but the real story isnt so.

anw, we went to eat sakae sushi before the movie, and it was nice.. better than suki.. haha we each ate like 11 plates? not bad.. at least we aren't childish this time to force food until we vomit.. =) now sakae like go according to age.. for those cheaper meals.. until age 21.. oh man.. if not next time need to pay more..

accompanied pam to spotlight coz she wanna buy some cute stencils to help her decorate her neoprint book.. hmm.. jia you pam.. you decorate le let me see!

bought a sweater from ip zone .. coz i think i was getting sicky and need another jacket so if i have the courage n the heart to do it, i can throw away the pink puma jacket.. but.. that's just a wild thought.. coz i need to wear something warm for the movie.. haha..

ok i am goin to be a spoiler here. read on if you want to be spoilt. (about the movie)




the movie is about an unlucky couple who wanted to go somewhere by car and they lost their way somewhere and it was late night and scary and they finally reached a place, not exactly a town, but just a place out of nowhere that there's the petrol station and a motel. so they went to the petrol station and they met a nice guy whom helped to see their car and make it work, but drivin nt more than a mile later, their car broke down again and they had no other way but to walk back to the petrol station. it was closed, so they have no better choice but to buy a room and stay for the night.

the room they stayed was creepy coz there isnt any other visitors but their door kept being banged by the "neighbours" and they see no one. seemed like ghost story at first and the whole place was real dirty and smelly. so the husband decided to watch some untitled tapes provided in the room only to find that it's a gross movie of people being murdered and tortured to death and the setting is no other place but in their room. that's when they noticed that they will soon become the next victims. so the motel manager is the one behind this and he filmed them thru peep holes and sell all these gore movies to someone.. and there're two other helpers who will do the dirty job..

so they played hide and seek for like.. 1 hr? den you really wish they either escape or get killed so everything can end soon coz it's a real torture to watch them run and being so helpless.. in the end...

yes, in the end.. the story ended so suddenly that the police will come for their help..

haha.. abit lame but stil, quite ok story.. the whole movie last 1.5 hrs.. u can watch if you wan to see ppl panic and cry..

ended.. made our way home..

17 July 2007

15 July 2007

A Lovely Saturday

Cousin (mi) came to my hse to stay overnite on fri. coz, pam n me are goin to watch transformers n my cousin wanna watch too. so we met up early in the morn at 9am. the excited 6 year old kid woke me up n so we packed up to meet at cwp. cinema's stil not opened so we went to yakun for breakfast.

Had a nice breakfast, the cinema was stil nt opened, so we went to timezone arcade to play. had some fun lil games, most of the time mi was playin.. haha.. i think he had a lot of fun. den we went to buy the tix.

First time bringin a 6 year old for movies. nt realli dat easy n i admit i oso dun have much of the patience, but u can expect that u wun have a quiet movie session. so the movie, the cg effects are great.. but the plot is abit funny. like very busy gotta go for battle le, stil can like spend one min to transform, den transform liao stil need to introduce the name. LOL. abit like power ranger.

After the movies, went to horizons for lunch. n went home, feeling very blue for the tuition. gotta spend 3 hrs there n i love the part when i step out of the hse n press the lift. so reached home, hm haven come, so went hm w pam first. pam got her first tuition pay!

So, hm finally came n mi, pillow, pam n me played abit here n there.. den taught hm how to play mahjong.. haha.. very fun.. hm is a fast learner.. 一点就通..

Very unlucky to have smashed n almost crushed my fingers when i was openin the shutters of the windows. pushed the window shutter hard onto another while leaving my other hand on it. i can only recalled i took seconds to react before i screamed. den i tot everythin is done n start teachin hm mahjong, movin the tiles ard. only to notice so suddenly after some time that my whole fingers turned bloody. LOL. den most of the tiles are stained w blood. skin n some flesh sliced partially into my left middle finger. i am stil lucky that i did nt break my fingers if nt how to play piano.. XD pam said friday 13th aftermath..

Den we had curry chicken w bee hoon for dinner.. very nice too.. after that, continued playin w the mahjong.. den we decided to switch to monopoly.. it's very fun.. we're like practically laughin non-stop for 2 hrs.. played until late nite.. 1pm plus.. XD

Sure goin to meet up again. n thanks frens, for cheerin me up.

Dead Ends on Friday 13th (New blog address)

ok. i totally despised him (that ex who wasted 3 years of my life).

N i noticed that i need some considerations on whether to post wat had happened on that dark friday. din't had the courage to in the first place. but i believed i can blog it out nonchalently n prove that all happened w a gd reason for me to despise him further n breach anymore contacts w him. anw, i changed my blog to this new add, smilingseedo. i dun wan him to come peekin in n noe how my life has been when i am so damn not interested abt his.

n i believe in no emotional writings here anymore towards him as that only prove to show my further concerns over him.

A brief summary.

I bought smth from sunway for him. I did nt intend to give him anythin for his bday as i believe there was no pt in celebrating anymore. yet, weeks before i left for the sunway trip, he insist we spent one day to celebrate together. i got a present for him, just in case.

I came back on thur. i told him i was back. n to give him his presents one day. his bday was sat. he suggested fri. i thought he had celebrations w his new found poly frens on sat. i made arrangements w my own frens on sat. he said, "u very busy hor?"

He wanted to treat me to dinner. i suggest jus passin him his present n go. he insist we had dinner ard 7 plus at cwp. he seemed not confirmed. he said he confirmed w me on friday before 12pm as i need to inform my mom earlier if i was goin out for dinner.

At friday 2pm i asked him why he haven confirmed w me n if we're meetin n can we jus meet to pass the present. he said we meet 7 plus at sembawang's sun plaza.

Close to 6pm, he called. he said his poly frens bought him a cake. n wanted to throw him a surprise party and they're goin to marina. i asked him why n how. he said he duno.

I was pissed. i said mom alr decided nt to cook n it was too late to inform me the change at this hr. wat am i goin to have for dinner. he said his frens meant it as a surprise. if i wan, i go marina w him. i said he can go n i'm not goin w him, but i will categorize him as someone who breaks promises.

He passed his phone to a girl whom i duno n nv heard of. the girl said it's nt his fault. he had nt forget abt our meeting, but the guy frens insist he go marina. i got nth to say. i said den u guys go ahead. the gal said, but u dun like that lei... do i have any other choice?

She passed the phone back to him n he said he call me later.

Few min later, he called back. i said i dun wanna go. he can go if he wants. he asked wat abt meetin on sat. i said i alr said i wasnt free. i asked him who's the girl, n wat's her business anw. he got angry n said it was juz a fren. he said, all of them are my gd frens, cant u jus let me go. i said wat abt the meeting? u broke ur promise.

He said, we're nt couples. i dun have to keep promises w u.

i said, u go then.

He wasnt happy coz i was nt big-hearted enuff to see him off w his frens happily.

I said, u dun ever cal me again.

He said, ok.

I hung up.

*

I cursed myself for shedding tears over someone so worthless. it's obvious he dun even treat me as a simple fren. i nv heard a "sorry" from him. n he n his frens assumed all's my fault.

I del him from msn, frenster, hp .. everything. n if u ever hear me mention abt him, curse me.

13 July 2007

Sunway Trip

I'm back (last nite)!

And i slept till 12 plus today. Accumulated tiredness. But it was very fun!

Went on 10th to sunway w pam n ty. They came to my hse to stay the previous nite so we left via taxi to golden mile early in the mornin. Reached there ard 7am. so we settled our stuff and waited for our bus to come. had some undelicious bun while waiting. n my mom earlier on had bought some bread for us to take along.

so finally, our bus came. n we went on it. cool.. double decked n the whole thing is very spacious. but we cant move the chairs n those controllers in front of us that lets us watch tv n play games. so we sat n watched n waited for the other passengers. listened to our mp3s n grew tired n bored. XD when everyone finally came, the bus left for tuas custom checkpt.. so we went down to have our passports checked. when we came back, the seats now can be adjusted. but nt the tv. diao. so went to the msia custom checkpt, den we have our passports n luggages checked. den came back, oh the tv is finally on. so they only allow us to use one by one.. LOL.

Got kinda amazed w the tv thingy for a while. got some movies n games. but my controller is non-workable. so watched the movie instead.. only one movie of all the movies they have interest me, shen xiao chuan qi, the one abt the twelve zodiacs. (so u can see it really isnt that interesting). so watched abit.. the headphone worked well sometimes only. den i started to get tired n bored of the show n i cant even play the games. den i decided to jus slp. so pop on my mp3 n slp. woke up on a few bumps. they brought us to yong peng for a break. so we went to buy some snacks (for our lunch). n we went back to eat n watch scenary on the bus. all the movies seemed to reset. n many ppl dun have the mood to watch the movies liao so they oso slp. LOL.

Slept again.. when i finally woke up w some buildings outside, i was wondering if we'd reached KL. den saw the signboard says sunway lagoon resort. oh we're close. but like stil need some time to reach there. so, played w pam's controller game. her's workable. den played a few games. nt very fun actually. think only gbc standard. finally we reached the lobby entrance. only three of us alighted. the rests like goin to other places so we took our stuff from the bus n went to the reception counter to check in. wanted the highest floor, close to the lift n etc.. they wanted 200rm deposit. dun understand why got such a thing. so luckily we had enuff, we took our stuff on our own to the top floor, n got our room.

Quite cosy n nice. but too bad there isnt any scenary available. so we decide to lock the windows w the curtains instead. placed our stuff in the hotel n we went to shop. before that, was so hungry so we decided to have lunch. walked ard, went to ichiban ramen to have some ramen.. i think it's quite nice.. after that, started our shoppin spree.. think girls really can shop.. we're like walkin ard for all there can be from then till the shops close. LOL. so wat did i buy? bought two tortoise figurines for my dad, two shirts for myself.. 2 doraemon manga, erm is that all?? pam n ty oso bought a couple of things. anw, it feels real nice to sweep shops n spend. haha. but there dun seemed anythin suitable for me lei.. so walkin ard is oso quite satisfyin. bought some famous amos cookies for snacks too.

Finally decided to have dinner.. wanted to have sushi king for dinner.. so we went in n ordered some unagi meal set, salmon sashimi, california handrolls, soft shell crab n stuff.. wo i loved the califonia the best. it tasted great. realli enjoyed the day, but we're dead beat.. walked ard n was thinkin of wat we can do if we cant slp for the night. so there's the karaoke box, bowling alley etc.. so decided to go back to hotel for a rest first. so we went back n took turns to have bath. very refreshin after that. but we got so tired soon again so we decided to jus slp n end the day.

Woke up early in the morn for the free breakfast buffet.. so we washed up n went down.. quite a lot of variety for u to choose from. ate a lot. cereals, noodles, eggs, sausages, sandwiches, pastrys, soups.. wooo~ saw a lot of iran/pakistan ppl.. n quite a few westerners, n some hongkongers n indonesians.. i think we three are the only singaporeans there. at this pt of time. XD so we took some photos, played ard n went back to the hotel to get ourselves changed for the theme park. so we headed to the theme park.. n wa.. a lot of ppl.. alot of non-chi.. many westerners in fact.. got kinda shocked. so we went in n we decided to play the dry stuff first.

Our first ride, the pirate ship. we're one of the early birds inside so we din get to see how the thing works in the first place. recalled aunt told me better nt play the scissors thingy coz it's very scary (think it's called tomahawk). so heed her words n played the pirate ship instead. everyone forced to sit from the centre. n nt much ppl there, got a pakistan family in front of us, two young siblings beside pam. so we sat n i was wondering, how come this pirate ship got such strong protective seats. LOL. it pressed down on our chests hard n on our legs too. n we're complainin very tight. LOL. i was jokin to pam, maybe this ship will later haul us out of sunway then use a string to pull us back that's why we're so tightly fitted. LOL. so it started. the first swing alr quite high, close to a normal pirate ship's highest swing. LOL. i dared ty to wave our hands n dun hold on to anything. so we did n suddenly it was like tilting us in a 180 degree manner.. n i finally understand this is nt a normal pirate ship. den it turned 360 degree n i noticed i duno where the top n bottom is. hahaha. rmbred ty n me now holding on to our locks so tightly we oso dun bother to unlock our hands from each other alr. LOL. den pam screamin like hell. hahha. den the pakistani in front of me shutting her eyes like mad. LOL. i was laughin n laughin n shocked. LOL. n for the first time i hoped that stuff could squeeze me tighter. LOL.

So we got down. conclusion. it's nt scary, but surprising n i was giddy from the ride. LOL. Laughy. our first ride alr so tremendous. wat cld be more scarier?

Next ride, think it's called the lost city of gold.. a rollar coaster ride. so we went in n sat. woho.. another thrill coz it's nt holding us tight enuff n the ride is steep. LOL. i think maybe this is the exciting part of the ride. if u got all tight up protected, u wun be afraid of those rides, jus got giddy. but those scary parts will be when the ride has a potential for u to fall out. LOL. so we sat. n think it's quite fun, so we went on it again. after that, went to ride on the small ferris wheel, while deciding where to play later on. after that, went to another small rollar coaster ride. this ride got nth actually, jus sit n feel the wind. It's almost level thru out the ride. LOL. den we oso played some kiddy stuff. like tea-cups n shoe racer. (that one i laughed alot. thru out the ride. LOL. i oso duno why i jus feel funny). LOL.

Den went on to some get-wet rides. one is we sit in a huge bumpy thingy n they bring us like down a canyon n occasionally got jets of water blast at us. den another one is we slide down from the top (2 person ride). den we decide to play those wet games, so we went to change into swimmin suits. we rented a bubble float for ourselves each. den we wanted to play those slide down ride, but it dont need our float, so we decided to leave it to the last. we went to slide down a steep waterway using our float n while we're climbing up, saw a cute westerner kid sitting on his float n saying "Weeee~~" as he zoomed down. LOL. so cute.den we oso slid down. ok la.. we're sliding down most of the time. cant really play anythin cool w water.. XD so we went down n we came to a water path way full of ppl n floats n we can hardly swim. LOL. wat is everyone doing there? no sch mei? it's a tuesday! ty said pakistan or wat now havin hols. LOL.

Den we went to the wave pool. ok .. the waves got irritating as time goes by.. as it's hard to swim n hard to float n water keep splashin into your ears.. haha so we din stay long.. so we move to another huge pool where there's sand n stable waves.. there oso not that packed w ppl. so we played on our floats.. n i got tired of the float so tried some swimming. i can swim but i cant keep myself above water so i can only have short gasps of swim. LOL. pam kept drinkin water. coz she kept fallin off her float. LOL. den ty wanted to do some sun-tanning so she slept on her float. we played there like for an hr. saw some couples doin their stuff in water..hmm.. almost an hr to the park closing, so the lifeguard chased us off the water.. so we took our leave n i was out of the float, draggin pam n ty. suddenly got two westerner uncles came on their float n they pulled pam's float, n pam was holding on to ty's float. den another uncle got ty's float, n i sort of fell down from the sudden hit. pam said those uncle kept askin where're we from, but we're speakin in chi to ourselves n nt reacting to them so they lost interest n went off.. walao wat were those men thinking.

Anw, we returned our floats n decided to play the last sliding down wet rides we wanted earlier. it was a tedious climb up n so we took turns playin the rides. got so tired, we decided to get changed n head out of the park. many ppl decided to leave too. we head back straight to the hotel n took turns bathing. after the nice hot bath, we decided to have dinner n was suggesting kenny n rogers.. but it turned out we cant recall where kenny n rogers' is n oso cant locate it on the directory, so we decided to have manhattan's fish market instead (was said the competitor of fish n co's). n wow.. the menu.. i love it.. everything cost like 14plus for a dish.. in RM. sg's was 14 plus for a dish in sing dollars.. so sure a huge difference. we went in n ordered our stuff. i had the fish n chip n some choco ice cool drink. ty ordered some norwegian salmon fish n that tasted great too.. i think it really can compete w fish n co. it turned out very nice n i love the price. XD

Very filling meal, we went to do some shoppin again. this time, i bought some manga (those continuing series i bought from johor last time). n a green n white cap n a shirt for my mom. n a grey wallet/hp pouch.. n pam n ty oso bought something too. so we walked ard, went back to hotel to place our stuff, n we decided to go take a look at the main tower.. so we did, took some pics there n we went to starbucks to buy some coffee n head back to hotel. rested there.. the tv kept showing astro boy, jackie chan series cartoon.. LOL.. so we did some silly stuff there.. playin n jokin, n takin silly photos.. slowly we each crawled into the bed n fell asleep.

Woke up early the next day again n we went for the breakfast buffet again. ate a lot.. we're headin home this afternoon.. gotta wait for the bus to come at 2.30pm.. so we sneaked out some food too.. for our lunch later on.. den we went back to hotel to packed our stuff n checked out.. got back our 200rm deposit n so we can do somemore shoppin.. went to buy 4 more tortoise figurines for my dad, famous amos cookies n an adidas shoe for my aunt n me to share.. so we walked ard n i bought kfc for my lunch.. while ty bought an a&w's drink n pam bought fillet from mac.. so we waited at the lobby.. the bus was one hr late.. i practically finished eating my stuff there while waiting.. LOL..

Anw, overall, the ppl there are nice.. n polite.. was discussin is it becoz this place is where everyone came to play n enjoy, no stress n hectics.. so everyone had those sense of patience cultivated.. but it was funny, occasionally ppl spoke to us in malay.. LOL.. they thought we're msians?

A different bus brought us home, we had the last seats.. n this bus oso got movies n songs, but the headphone is spoilt.. this got more movies, got pokemon, harry potter's globet of fire, doraemon.. LOL.. din interest me at first so i decide to slp. was so tired. woke up, we arrived at yong peng again, so we spent the last of our money on food n snacks home.. bought quite a lot.. head back to the bus.. wanted to read but it's gettin dark so watched doraemon instead.. half way thru, we reached the msia custom so they shutted off the videos.. then cant do anythin.. but we reached sg in no time.. n we're gettin blue.. sian.. haha.. complaining why everything happened so fast..

So we alighted at taman jurong there n went home via a taxi.. dead beat.. mom n aunt glad to see me home.. dad workin.. but he told me via sms the next morn he loved the tortoise figurines a lot.. ahh.. sian everything back to normal days.. like nth to look forward to now.. sian..

Wanna go on a trip again! i wan go somewhere via plane next special term vacation!

Movie Dayz

I watched "the core" on tv5 jus now.

The effects.. i wonder is it my tv or the technology. it seemed so computerised. but the story plot is stil there. n i quite like it. but some parts i dun understand. the material used to build that incredible machine that drills into the core of the earth. that's so strong? to withstand all the pressure n heat n stuff? that it can penetrate all forms of magma n gases. seemed unbelievable.

I dun like to see fantasy in a sci fiction film. n it happened so that the "couple-to-be" stayed alife. so coincidental? but ppl watched for gd endings rite. XD

Dad got the die hard dvd from his fren. Uncool. the overall effects turned out tragedy. especially the subtitles. i think die hard shld really be caught real or in the movies. the effects are really great when it's original.

JC gathering

Woke up early this morn. Went to singpost to apply for a registered mail. First time doing it. Aunt gotta send a package to relative in KL. It was expensive.

Settling the stuff, we took our leave again n this time headin back to jurong. ty wanna do checkup at sata. the admin stuff there got eccentric attitude. i cant understand her. ty said i looked at her comically. we decide to go to yew tee for the checkup instead. so we took train again. reached yew tee. nice cosy lil' hospital. sat there and read ty's book while ty did her stuff. another rude admin. nowadays....

Left, decide to go cwp. since it's stil early. took the wrong side. only notice when we reach cck. ty said it was "wasted trip". gd phrasing. so we finally reached cwp. decide to catch a movie. since we're meeting jc frens for dinner there later on at 7. wanted to watch the wat leap.. den dun have. last min decide die hard 4.0. since it had the best timing. great decision. the show was great. what can i say? IT'S A MUST WATCH. VERY NICE. I GAVE 5 STARS.

Finished, almost the time to meet the others: pam, ch n px. so we went to ctrl stat. n everyone's stil the same. bubbly n nice. long time no see. really am glad to see them. we decide to eat at foodcourt. chatted a lot. nice catching up. went to take neoprint. very funny n nice. walked ard. went to timezone arcade n played. laughters. jokes. Fun. arcade goin to close. so gotta leave for home. we agreed to meet up soon again.

New Layout n Skin

Changed my blog skin. To something simple with a simple layout and a simple theme. Haha..

New colors, a new start?

I seemed to be active in my new blog rather than here. But very soon when sch reopens, these two blogs are jus goin to trap dust.

I like the song "careless love". the tune is sad but soothing. this song appeared in my piano textbook.

I declared chi lang as my major. A very challengin sem coming on.

Went out w pam and ty ytdy. Went from ps to heeren to cine to taka to far east.

I only spend about 30 bucks surprisingly.
