ever noticed how boys have the tendency to watch tv with their mouths open? i discovered this yrs ago when i was watching tv with my cousins, and my male cousin was watching with his mouth wide open, whereas us girls had our mouths shut. yrs later in jc and uni, i realised this was really true, because the guys always had their mouths open when they were watching tv.

and to prove my point, please take a look at the pic below. the guys were watching soccer at winebar 2 weeks back...and ALL OF THEM had their mouths opened..haha! i just had to take a picture of them


photos from our (zzzzzzzzzzz) zouk outings...snort


other events that i've gone for, and things i've been up to:
- airshow (display was pretty good, but everything else was just DAMN BAD)
- mosaic festival - broken social scene concert
- steamboat last weekend
- work, work, work

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR TO ALL!!! Hope your ang pao collection has been fruitful so far..and may you win tons of money if you're a gambling addict!

i don't really know how my collection is so far, because my family has this practice of opening our ang paos on the 15th day of the new year. am absolutely stuffed, and if there had been any plans of losing weight...well erm...i must say it's gonna be even harder now!

nothing else to blog about...some pics and a video from my company's AGM that was held at The Arena 2 weeks back. everyone had to dress in 70s costume and erm...i can't believe how onz everybody was..99% of the people turned up in something retro...and the guest entertainer was Kumar who was friggin hilarious...



my fav pic is the one right smack in the middle with van van...because that's the only pic where i don't look fat, and don't look like a mama bird! the ppl at the bottom right of the entire collage are my team mates..they dressed up as a 70s sports team. if you are wondering why i'm not dressed like them...erm...haha it's a looooooooooooooooooooong story which i can't be bothered to tell! anw..they looked friggin hilarious, and i dunno why they weren't nominated for the "best dressed" award.


and this is my fav dance of the night..this guy dressed up as a microwave (erm...i dunno in what way is that retro..) and he was called up on stage to take part in every single performance!

Just found this clip in my laptop. It was taken some time ago, when peach, hil and i went to pasir ris park to hang out.

There was this saucer looking thing in the playground that hil said was very fun, and we all tried. and omg, it's damn freaking scary. you can tell how scary it is, by how peach is hanging on for her dear life! hil is lying in tt manner because she tried to run on the thing like a hamster to make it move (what a kok!), but slipped and hence she's like tt...haha!

man...i haven't blogged since i got back from bali. it seems like one million years ago since i went to bali.

christmas came and went, and it's already 2008. time sure flies real quickly!

i'm still in the same job, and i enjoy the work but still hate working life. i'm still constantly broke, and i'm still as lazy as ever. nothing much has changed. haha!

anw..i went to shanghai and hangzhou at the end of december 2007, and erm there's nothing about that place that i wanna gush about (unlike hil the china-chick who loves shanghai to the bottom of her heart..ha!). shanghai's like singapore and our neighbouring country mixed together, but 1000 times bigger in size. the traffic there is hideous, the people speak at an extraordinary volume and their manners are...erm...damn good...NOT!

hangzhou had a nice and super huge lake that i could barely see due to the extremely bad weather - rain and fog all the time. we spent christmas and christmas eve (which also happened to be my birthday!) there. there was ZERO christmas celebration in hangzhou, and for my bday celebration,we had the KFC family bucket. haha...but i'm definitely more satisfied with it than the christmas buffet dinner that shangri-la had to offer...which would have cost about 800sgd. if i was turning 50 years old last yr,i would have definitely accepted my dad's offer to have tt dinner :P

anw, i have yet to upload my shanghai photos on my laptop...so here are pics from other celebrations.


my early bday celebration at the majestic restaurant in new majestic hotel...the food was super good! thank you for the wonderful dinner...thank you girls for the wonderful suprise (which my mom kinda spoilt), and thanks hil for the dinner recommendation!

erm..i was too caught up with gobbling my food down, hence i forgot to take pics..but the main reason why i didn't take pics was, i didn't want to look like a suaku. we had abalone, foie gras, sharks fin and all that high cholesterol delicious food. remnants of my mango pudding with black glutinous rice dessert can be found at the bottom left corner of the collage..ha!

also...pls say hi to our new friend hogbob!

new year's count down was at zouk. surprisingly there wasn't any crowd, and erm the music was quite zzzz...i was bored by i think 1am. but i dunno why i stayed till 3 plus and only reached home ard 5am??

oh! did i mention that i'm still in the office? and now i am going home...

BALI

selamat malam! i am back from bali! it's nice to be home, but it's definitely nicer to be there :) anw, the trip was damn fun, and the bunch of us did a hell lot of activities, which by the way were very expensive. haha..but it was worth it :) oh alright...i only took part in ONE, but that's a great achievement for me since i am absolutely not a sport fanatic and i usually don't take part in water sports. things that we did during this trip include:
  • surf
  • white-water rafting
  • flying fish
  • jet skiing
  • diving
  • spa
  • massage
  • foot reflexology
  • pedicure
  • eat
  • sleep
  • get sun burn
and out of all the sports activities, i only took part in white-water rafting...haha...lazy to blog any further..all i can say is that, my sun burn is damn bad and i'm shedding skin like a snake now! photos time :D

Surfing 101 White-Water Rafting..."maybe sometimes later there's a boom-boom (collision of the raft into the rocks).." - as said by our guide.....the last pic at the bottom right is of the 4m plunge that we took the flying fish that didn't fly very high...and this is the day when i was the designated photographer Jet Skiing the human fishes...


dinner at hard rock cafe balitheir last surfing attempt!

the middle child sydrome has been a particularly hot topic among my colleagues and i these days. and guess what?! i am a middle child! and i agree that i am slightly aloof at times. went to google it just now and this is what i found....

"The middle or second born child or children often have the sense of not belonging. They fight to receive attention from parents and others because they feel many times they are being ignored or dubbed off as being the same as another sibling. Being in the middle a child can feel insecure. The middle child often lacks drive and looks for direction from the first born child. Sometimes a middle child feels out of place because they are not over achievers and like to go with the flow of things.

Being a middle child would mean they are loners. They really don’t like to latch on to a person in a relationship, there fore they have trouble keeping one due to lack of interest. Not liking to take the limelight for anything, they are not over achievers and just simply work enough work to get by, and typically that goes with school as well as a career. They are however very artistic and creative. If forced to use abilities they will work well, but do not work well under pressure. They often start several projects but rarely keep focused long enough to finish a project. The best career move for a middle child would be along the lines of using their creative. Going into a writing or journalism career, and into a career that they could freely express themselves would be good. Anything that would have hours that are flexible, and projects that frequently changed would be good for a middle born child. Since relationships are not of high importance to a middle child, often times they are alone. However, the best possible match for a middle child would be a last born."

all in bold are traits that i think i possess or show sometimes. the career thing is especially true, because i find that i tend to enjoy doing various projects with different content rather than do the same old things all the time. as for the loner bit, tt is quite true too. my colleagues were saying tt the middle child are pretty temperamental, coz sometimes they are very friendly, and other times they tend to be extremely anti-social. and yes...i go through that too. like sometimes i am friends with the world but other times i get irritated with everyone and i just keep to myself. :S

the reason i brought that up is because...i suddenly realised that the past few days i have bee extremely irritated with the whole world, and whenever i am sitting with a grp of ppl i am usually not paying attention to what the ppl are saying or i just don't know what to reply even though i'm paying attention. like all of a sudden, i'm a complete social retard.

one of the biggest things that pissed me off yesterday is how people don't answer their phones, OR...don't call back when they see a missed call! ok..sometimes i don't call ppl back either BUT if i get anything more than 2 missed calls from the same person, or 2 missed calls from the same grp of ppl or 2 missed calls and various msg...i think i get the idea that it's slightly important that i respond regardless of how important or unimportant the matter might be.

since i am on the topic of responding to people... i must also mention that i HATE it when people do not answer other's calls or sms, and the reason why they don't answer is because they are too busy having fun or because they are with their other half (or maybe they are not having fun, i don't care), and then when they have problems (especially when they have problems with their other half) they suddenly remember tt their friends exist and they call their friends at weird hours of the night and expect people to answer their calls and listen to them. wtf.

some people might say "that's what friends are for...to support each other through difficult times". ya sure...i will certainly support u through difficult times, ONLY IF you remember that we exist during your la-dee-da times. if not, just wait and see what kinda shitty attitude u're gonna get from me. and i don't think i am alone in thinking this way...i know of many who think like me too.

remember how last time i had a "currently listening to"? this time i must have a "mood"

mood: >_< downright pissed

all things random

happy halloween!
today, a very muscular guy walked around the office wearing a transformers headgear that had an in-built voice changer and various lines that optimus prime said recorded in it. he carried a basket of sweets and approached everyone and said "jiak tng mai?" (do u want sweet?)...and his voice came out like a robot. then someone showed a video of the previous year's staff retreat with all the ppl doing funny dances and charlene turned to me and said "we are surrounded by crazy people........now u know why u feel so comfortable here...". to which i laughed and replied "yup :)". ten seconds later, i faced her and said "ARE YOU IMPLYING THAT I AM CRAZY?????", and she replied "YUP! :)"...idiot.

have i ever mentioned that the cleaning auntie is the luckiest woman on earth? everywhere she walks all the staff will greet her and smile to her. she's even more popular than the MD!


oh...HAPPY BIRTHDAY HORSIE!

ok. back to my game.

KNNBCCB!

wah lau..this has to be the shittiest day ever in history man!

firstly...it's a MONDAY! damn bloody sian coz of monday blues and all right? nvm..i woke up and it was raining heavily..even more sian..coz i wish i cld continue to sleep. nvm...then my freaking hair refuses to cooperate with me, and my freaking per-neh-sonic ionic straightener dies on me, so now i have a bad hair day. tt's like double whammy already.

i thought i'd make the day better by outsmarting the weather and all by wearing shorts and birks..but my mom and sis say tt i shld wear my slippers coz my birks will spoil in the rain, which is actually a good pt, but just because i am irritated now..i choose to blame them for not letting me wear my birks..haha! so i put on my OLD black havainas, and guess what happens? tt's right...i SLIP AND FALL while walking to my office. KNNBCCB! and my slipper broke! @$#*!$!&!$^

and of course i had to fall right in the middle of the cbd...at the pedestrian crossing where the whole world can see me fall. let me describe how it happened....

as i was crossing from the AIA building to the hong leong finance building....i was thinking to myself..hah! this time i beat the freaking rain coz i have an umbrella! so i cooly opened my brolly and walked towards the junction, and as i stretched out my left leg...it slipped right under me and gave way..and i end up kneeling on the road..machiam praying to the hong leong finance building! and because i tried to use my right leg to break the fall...my slippers gave way! so then i had to limp across the road with a barefoot and slipper in hand....basket. talk about being glamorous mannnnnn......

then i had to spend like eternity standing outside the hong leong building changing into my birks and cleaning my freaking wound and hands so that i could continue with the dreaded journey to the office, when actually i wld rather turn back and head home. so the maluation does not end here. as i was cleaning my freaking wounds...the indian security guard of the building opens the door of the building and asks me..."u fell down ah? alamak.."..to which i replied..."ya ..but it's okay..thanks"..and then i walk off. at this pt...i realise tt...fuck..i was standing infront of the freaking tinted door..which happens to be the door to the customer service area of the building..hence the whole freaking world in there saw me fall down/change my slippers/clean my wound etc...yayyy....like i can be any more of a dick head.... :(


and that sums up my shitty morning...now i have to go and shit. i hope tt reduces the shittiness of the rest of the day :(


just to gross everyone out..and just coz sulin wanted to see it....here's a pic

my law abiding immune system

apart from being an extremely law abiding citizen, i have recently discovered that my immune system is law abiding too. the reason i say this is because, as long as i have anything more than ONE beer, i will throw everything up. yup, that also means that i drank 2 beers on friday night and i puked it all out when i got home. haha! but mannnn..i never felt any better! oh i forgot to mention that i erm...LS-ed too...hahah...fark..so i am law abiding because the law says that if u were to drive after drinking, the limit is ONE beer. and i am always the designated driver when we go clubbing, hence my immune system has set it's limit to ONE beer! *snort*



caught resident evil with a bunch of people last night. wah lau, it is downright violent, gross and ermm...all that stuff that makes you want to close your eyes throughout the entire movie! after that we went to the arcade to play those stupid games where you have to control the ufo looking device to catch the toy. i swear that machine is rigged into making you waste money. we caught the bloody toy a million times but it always drops before it reaches the basket..BAH!

and today, cootie and i went to shop for a microwave and hot water flask for his home. we spent a damn long time deciding on which microwave to get, and finally we got this quite ugly sharp one, which was supposed to be $131, but when the cashier scanned the price tag, she said it's $99. what a steal!

then we went blading and cycling in the evening. i felt like i brought a little boy to the park..shant' explain why though. my legs are aching now coz at some point of our exercise, i had to lug a cow along with my bike...and below's a pic of the cow..



for once i can gladly say that this was a weekend well spent :)

new experiences

  1. nintendo wii - suffered from severe muscle aches after some intense boxing
  2. hed kandi bar - i like the decor and the music

did i mention that

I AM NO LONGER UNEMPLOYED??????????

haha...damn boh liao right? sorry, couldn't control myself. anyway some interesting things that i have spotted in my office............

i walked into the toilet, and noticed that the toilet roll dispenser is called SCOTT. Before there was only scottex, now there's SCOTT! i always knew our dear friend scott was a toilet roll in his last life *snigger*.

the hand dryer in the toilet is the old school stiebel eltron one..reminds me of my kindergarten days. i will always associate those hand dryers with those in st paul.

my entire office uses ibm desktops/laptops...seems like there's no escaping from ibm for me. but i have to admit that i love their laptops, albeit the oh biang design. it's how zhai!? i'm using the new t60 now...shiok la...

there are a lot of odd looking rooms in the office, so i have been walking around like a tourist the whole of today, amusing myself with the things that i find.

ok...back to stonning. first week of work is always the most zzzz...i really suck at pretending that i'm busy :(

the bionic woman. the mighty dustball and the great revamp

after my great trip to the far north, i went to holland village to meet sulin for lunch. the route for 95 changed and i almost ended up at that petrol station further off holland v. thankfully i wasn't day-dreaming for once..haha!

went to ikea with peach after tt to buy "furniture" for the great revamp of her room, and then went back to her house to put the stuff together. indeed, peach is a bionic woman!
we bought one of those racks with the baskets and had to fix them together. i spent a good 10 mins hammering like mad to get the bars to join together, but all it took peach was two big whacks and she did it! what a man she is indeed!

anw..here's a headsup for hil. please bring a mask and socks on saturday for the great cleanup, because chances of getting attacked by the mighty dustball in peach's room is really pretty high! i left her house with a red eye and incessant sneezing! if possible...bring a full body suit that u can wear to protect urself...ha!

these two kids are super cute!



Thursday, September 13, 2007

forgot to mention that i went for mambo last night. the place is still as crowded as ever! but...it was filled with prcs, nsmen and dunno what other ppl. i spent most of the time standing on the steps watching two idiotic girls trying to do some erotic dance that absolutely turned everyone off! but of course, it was damn good entertainment laughing at their erm..grossness? if the camera in my phone was of a better quality, i would definitely have video-ed the both of them and posted the clip on youtube! not that bad dancing is unacceptable, but if you dance badly..just stay on the freaking dancefloor (like me..hurhur) instead of standing on the platform and killing everyone with your hideous moves and grooves! tsk tsk...

and...TEEEHEEEHEEE...someone got picked up by some prcs! and not like a hot one...it was an "EEPS!" one with like curly hair and pig tails and she was wearing a woolly dress...*SNIGGER* this same someone got picked up by a girly man once too...TEEEEHEEEHEEEHEEEHEEE!!!

speaking of girly man, check out this video. friggin hilarious!
someone went to put english subtitles in the tamil music video, but the subtitles don't make sense at all. they're just english words that resemble what the tamil lyrics sound like in english..haha..



maybe i should master this dance and go on the platform in zouk *SNORT*

girly man!
gosh my old calculator ain't got no bow
nippley man i met, he ate my motorboat!...
welcome the dude who ain't the buyer of mugs!

ooooooooooooo! you'll be pumping ovaltine!

made a frozen strawberry cheesecake, and konyaku jelly on tuesday. both are first attempts. my konyaku jellies were in the shape of beer bottles! how cute right?

the results of my "cooking"...
frozen strawberry cheescake: a tad bit too sour because i added too much lemon juice.
konyaku jelly: great :) (ok if i failed to make this, i can be certified as an absolutely lousy chef!)

i sort of found a part time job. actually i didn't find it, it was given to me. and my part time job is........to be a maid! and the one who gave me the job is none other than my mom -_-"
our new maid from myanmmar has this serious nose bleeding problem and she has to go home, so while waiting for the new maid to arrive, i have been been instructed to do the household chores...zzzzzz.......i hope my mom manages to find a part time maid. i'm sure i won't be able to handle sweeping and mopping the floor, and washing the clothes everyday...i will die!

Monday, September 10, 2007

it's true, i'm unhappy. about what though? i'm not too sure myself.
got a million things running through my head, and yet i can't put them all together to form the big picture of my unhappiness.
maybe it's because i feel suffocated trapped?
maybe it's because i feel like i'm talking to walls most of the time?
maybe it's because i want to do something DIFFERENT, but yet always end up at where i started?
maybe it's because i want to change, but am afraid of rejection?
maybe it's because i want to change the people around me, but who am i to do that?
maybe it's because i feel like i am trapped in a bell-jar like vacuum thing and i'm screaming, shouting and waving my hands to get the attention i need, but yet the one standing right outside the vacuum looking at me in the eye, can't seem to hear me or see me?
or maybe it's just because i lack courage, confidence and am ultimately insecure?

sigh..bah...nite. (notice how there's no longer a good before the night?)

Thursday, September 06, 2007

so you think that all those chains, necklaces and pendants and whatever else that the black rappers wear are BLING BLING??? check this out....



the car of the saudi prince.............



three words...WHAT THE HELL?!

ok anyway, out of boredom, i decided to read xiaxue's blog last night. the real reason why i went to read her blog was because, my stupid younger sister has been repeating this line - "XIAXUE...ARE YOU KUKU??", to me everyday, and i just had to go to her blog to watch the video with that utterly disgusting eyebrow plucker saying it. erm i really kinda hated her...but now i have to admit that she's quite entertaining when one's really bored..haha! *sheepish look* erm ...and then i went to watch "girls out loud". haha farking funny...i love roz!

after much procrastination, we finally went to the science centre today! woohoo! all thanks to my persistence...hohoho...

the science centre is damn cool now! haven't been there since erm..i think it was primary 6. got damn a lot of exhibitions (though a lot of them were faulty) and still got all the puzzles that we played with during our primary school days! after today's trip, i can once again conclude that science is NOT my cup of tea :S

we also caught the documentary titled "Dinosaurs - Giant of Pentagonia" aka "Dinosaurs - GOP" at the omni-theatre! the omni-theatre is still as coool as ever..and erm i kinda got giddy at some point when the dinosaurs were running too quickly.

photos from our science centre excursion:



charles' very own kitchen

errm...some animal specimens exhibit


charles the booger-boy!

damn gross looking tongue..

told ya i was fit not fat!
" what are ya looking at???"

we went to the clinic after that with leonard, aaron and martin. the drinks there are nice tasting but blardee expensive! we tried the drip drink and it costs $50! blood suckers....
