Never leave your seat untill almost half of the credits had finished rolling. That's what i regretted not doing. LOL.
Edward (yes we finally met up after such a looong time) and I left the cinema when the lights came up and the credits started to roll. Little did we expect that there will be a "hidden ending" of the film. It's an answer to the mysterious and abrupt ending i guess. Oh well. I'll just have to find out from my other peers who watched it. Grrr.
Dan the Man in NP's Lecture Theatre 78!
Yep! Daniel Ong came to our Radio Production as a guest lecturer todae and spoke to us about almost everything under the sun. I really think he could be a walking Sound Effects Machine. Anything that comes out of his mouth is almost like the exact thing. Be it a cat or a cranky radio machine. =.= Haha. He's really funny. A lil edgy on the "yellow-jokes" too. Haha. Oh well. He's really a nice guy to have in our lecture threatre :)
Will try to post up pics of him soon (if i have the time) (by my dear clsmate Angie :) )

My mom thought it was some arty-farty show from the way it's named. LOL. Well, cant help it. Da Vinci IS an arty-farty person wad. hahaa. His works are like WOW can. Haha.
Went to watch it with Meiyi after her class. We actually wanted to catch it somewhere near our home, but all are full. GVs are forever full la. I prefer Shaw. :P
So we ended up going to Lido and had 2 seats from the first 2nd row. =.= Haha. I could hav enjoyed the show better if wasn't feel so unwell during the movie. Grrr. This is the first time i can't wait for a movie to end so badly man. I have no idea if it's gastric or just plain stomach discomfort. Eventually i managed to perservere till the end of movie which after that i threw up in the ladies. Felt SOOOO much beta then. lol.
The machine ate up my bills.
The show was150 mins, hence all the shops were closed when the show ended at 11plus. No shopping. I saw Topshop had a 50% discount! Oh well. Money saved. LOL. I went to deposit my cash on the way home, at the machine deposit station. After the machine gurgled and counted my cash for the 3rd time, the slot opened up and i was told that my cash couldn't be accepted. A single $10 note was sitting in the slot. I was utterly shocked. My hundreds of dollars juz disappeared! I took the bill out of the slot and was speechless. I din even noe wad to do. After that i jus realised from the screen that the rest of the money was already credited. I guess the amount was exceeded by $10. LOL.
174 - 1 = 74
Bleah. I took the wrong bus la. After lunch at KAP's Mac with Evie, i crossed the overhead bridge and wanted to take 74 home. I dunno wad's wrong with me, or was it the bus, i din notice the 1 on the bus number. So i boarded it. I settled down comfortably and started to doze. It was after some time when i felt cold and wanted to take my jacket out. Then i saw the bus turned in the opposite direction. Then i saw Holland Road. 74 doesn't goes to Holland Road what! I was shocked then i realised i've boarded the wrong bus. I then see if the next bustop had another one right opposite it. So i took another 174 back to school.
I alighted at Bukit Timah Road, near the Coronation Plaza. I almost boarded the 74 there, which was going to Buona Vista. I shook my head to wake myself up then crossed over to wait for 74.
ARGH. The rain came when i was at the bustop. And there were many buses ending with the number 4. 174, 184, 154 and 74. I made sure my eyes were wide open and my brain's functioning properly. Grrr. Wasted my time.

Whee. The Great Singapore Sale 2006 is ON! The poster boards, banners and display windows are carrying that few words. Discounts are everywhere. During our dinner out at Plaza Singapura just now with Evie, she had to shield and cover my eyes when we walked past shops, especially EBASE (my fav shop :P). Oh well. Todae our main agenda was to have dinner, get some stuff from Spotlight then go STRAIGHT home. Haa. We did. :)
Felt so accomplished for NOT shopping. Haha.. :)
I shall save up and wait till the midst of GSS. Here's a few things i've in mind on my shopping list:
- A black casual sandal / black Birkies
- More tees. (those tiny, short sleeved ones)
- Denim shorts
- Knee length shorts (super in now:) )
- Huge / Tiny belts
- Chunky jewellery (probably DIY :) )

I didn't want my afternoon to go to waste, hence i dated Meiyi out for a movie to kill my time before i go for dance. :) We ended up watching OVER THE HEDGE for MI3's showing times were pretty late in the night and she preferred the the cartoon over DA VINCI CODE. lol. The show's pretty funny and nice, bt it's a typical cartoon la. Entertaining and humourous, with the good moral values ie. family bonding and trust to boot.
I've taken notice recently that parents like to take their children to these cartoon / animated movies, regardless how young they can be. A little boy sat next to me. I thought that he would be really awful and restless, bt to my surprise he sat quietly throughout the show, apart from occasional questions and giggles. He's a sweet thing. On the contrast, a baby wailed his/her lungs out when the mom brought him/her into the theatre when the show has already started. Everybody stared at the family. Oh wells. Babies are uncontrollable.
Did a little shopping and walk-around in town. Seems like the Great Singapore Sale's already on the go. Many shops are starting their BIG sales. Far east plaza isn't an exception. However i found that their items aren't really that "worthwhile" or "affordable" after the discount and sale. Their quality and stuff doesn't match the price. The mark up's way too high. I could easily find smth similar or even exactly the same at a lower price. DUH.
Oh wells. Looking forward to GSS, the movies, DA VINCI CODE, VOICE, MI3, SILENT HILLS and many more... :)

It's our lao da KweeSiang's bdae yesterday. He held a chalet at Costa Sands Resort. I made a mistake and tot it's DownTown East. LOL.
He had LOADS of guests. His entire family came down to help out with the BBQ and the food. There's this thingy like a you-zha-kuey bt they have this prawny inside. It's fabulous! They even had home made dumplings (made by my frens the day before the BBQ) and stingray! All my frens were red in the face and dripping perspiration bt still insisted to eat it. It's super spicy, with the homemade chilli Kweesiang's mother made. It's such a letdown that my throat would retaliate when it sensed the choking chili due to my flu, if not i'd gobble down the fabulous stingray along with my frens. Hehez.
As it's his 21st birthday, they sabo-ed him, pouring ice cold water over him for three times. LOL. The last time was a bucketful of icecold soapy water. Too bad a few drops landed lightly on the neighbours and they kicked up a big fuss. A fight almost broke out. Thanks to the bdae boy's mum who coolEd things down. She's great man. Can cook, and can fight. :P JkjK.
Looking back at his party, i kinda envy him all of a sudden. He had a great gf (who is also my fren), a warm and loving family (nt tat mine wasn't warm), a pool of great frens who made it down no matter what, and a bunch of great buddies. Life's certainly was almost perfect. You cant ask for anything else.
Not mentioning the emo part of mine yesterday, i had a great time. :)
Thanks KweeSiang (& family) for the great food and BBQ yesterday! :)

Yes, i did it again. I spent money on shopping again. I bought a bag again. This is the 3rd time i walked into the bazaar located at the B2 square at Takashimaya and the 3rd time i bought smth from there. Though sale also cannot liddat ma. :X Oh well. Since when i din spend money when i go out with the legendary Freda Poh. LOL.
but i like my new brown bag. Finally smth tat's nt WHITE. hehez.
Went to Kbox with my dearest Peifen and Peifang after school. Missed em soooo much man. Todae is the first time they hugged me. I dun rmb that they like to hug ppl one. Haha. Cant be helped. THey miss me loads. :P We sang, catch up on our lives, and made fun of the blur waiter tat keeps peeping at us. Haha. The rude lady at the counter charged us the normal package instead of the student one when 2 of us were wearing school uniform. HELLO? Can u pls open ur eyes when u are working? Even when u're on the phone?? Only know how to eat snake. Eat snake also muz do work can. >.< Kotook us so much money. =.=
The excuse she gave us when i ask if they student package still available was, sometimes our student package's not in operation. HELLO?! Got liddat de meh?!

nth could make it worse. seriously. it's gonna be a long story if i weep and tell u whats going on. i shall juz list our some of the many points that made yesterday such a bad, bad day...
- the not-so-smart housekeeping lady gave me a men's white shirt as my uniform and said 'no more' when i asked for a smaller size. HELLO do i look like a guy to u??! esp such a small sized guy. u cant argue tat there weren't anymore smaller sizes. my frens who came later than me had smaller sizes (they're abt the same size as me).
- For my table location for the wedding lunch, it wasn't much better than yesterday night. It was just a table nearer to the kitchen, that's all. And he expects me to be grateful to his kindness. yea right man. thank goodness i'm with a gd fren so it's nt so bad. bt poor she, her table's crazy,with all the 'water-king' for they drink like crazy.
- After our turnover, we had our table location for the night's dinner. I got stashed like in the corner. My fren got stashed more far in the corner as well. he's crazy man. so much for fairness and all.
- Dinner's super hectic for me. It was as though me and my fren exchanged fates. All 10 ppl turned up, along with 1 kid amongst them. He's nt my nightmare. The kids at the other tables are. They ran around, blocking everybody's path. At a point i really wanted to land my tray with plates and food on them. That's how pissed i am. =.=
- The guests were very picky about drinks and food as well. One guest told me that he wanted '2 pieces of (chicken) breast meat'. Aren't u really picky?! You could hav jolly well told me u all wanna help urselves to it. =.=
- Super slow at service. Due to the super far location, super picky guests and super irritating kids.
- My padding in my shoe keeps coming off. It took me pains to keep stopping and adjusting it.
- The coke-man was the prelude. He asked for a coke from one of my colleagues, and he's trying to convey the msg to me. He din specify which man, juz said tat man. I got very impatient and very pissed.
- The shoes burst it. My another colleague accidentally kicked me and my shoe went flying in the room, with all the guests around. Many saw it. I went into the kitchen and.. u noe..
sick nw. flu and fever. wun be going dance todae :( though i wished i cud. cant return the MD todae as well. Hope we wun get into trouble tml :P

Okay, so my mom did agree to come out to hav dinner with me at this japanese fine cuisine restaurant.
We had a "Beef Sirloin & Vegetables Hotpot" and some Salmon and what-not rice. They were simply D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S! :)
The rice's not over-flavoured, as the different ingredients with the rice spiced it up. It had the super big fish roe and salmon. And mind you, the salmon's super fresh! I realised that it's pretty delicious to eat half-cooked salmon also. LOL.
For desserts, we had some rice balls (similar to the chinese glutinious ball) and Citrus Sherbet. Both were pretty good. :)
Over all the food there was fabulous. I can't wait to try out their other delicious cuisine! :)
Oh btw i discovered something much to my horror. There's this 2 Japanese girls (the restaurant were favoured by many Japanese) and they had a set meal when we reached and sat at the table next to them. However when we were about to leave after our meal, they had ANOTHER set meal. How could slim and pretty ladies like them hav such a huge appetite YET not gaining much weight?? The world is just so unfair.
Speaking about gaining weight, i've seriously gained much fats and all. I MUST shed it off soon. :(

I've been trying to call HP-Compaq for days and i've finally reached their customer care specialist via the telephone today. And guess what, the same guy that served me yesterday answered my call today as well, or so i thought. It was only later when he introduced himself that i knew they aren't the same person. However, their accents were exactly the same.
I don't know if that's the "indian" accent or anything like that, bt what i'm pretty sure is that i do hav much difficulty interpreting what they are saying, especially when they speak at such high speeds. Especially when we are calling from a place with relatively loud background noises, we simply can't make out what they are saying. Oh well. Evie made a joke that maybe they connected the telephone lines to india to save the labour cost. !!! LOL.
Oh well. For the outcome of my call and enquiries, my notebook warranty had already expired on the April 22nd. However he did tell me what i could do to see if my batt's really dying, and if it really died i would just hav to order a new batt. Oh wells. Grrrr.Should hav send my lappie in sooner.

I've realised that i've grown to dislike Mondays. Mondays are tiring, boring, exhausting and irritating.
Over the weekends i would be working, hence waking up on a Monday and dragging myself to school's certainly not nice though i only hav classes at 1pm. In addition my classes would only last till 2 or 3pm and i'd hav nth on till 6.30pm for dance. =.= Tat's 3 half hours to waste. Hence i would hav to bring my laptop. It's very heavy for goodness sake. And i've to lugg so much stuff to sch and come in my cargo pants (i din wanna bring xtra stuff to change).
In addition, i feel like a loner (according to my standards). I come to sch alone, go to class alone, go for lunch alone, rot alone then go to dance alone. Bleah.
Monday's Loner day for me.
Bt i'm happy we wun be having classes next mon. :) it means a LONG WEEKEND! :P

It was till yesterday tat i know that Joseph had "transfered" to SP's Nautical Studies (if i'm nt wrong) as a freshie tis year. COOL la! Must wear uniform somemore. LOL. Laughed my head off with em.

Flora's really lucky. She caught his poster. LOL. 2 posters landed near us. Bt we nv got it. HAHA.

Although time kinda left some tracks on her face. :( oh well. oh ya the fans kinda look pissed and puzzled when we were talking to Carol (for she's the promotion manager in charge). haha. bt we had to go and din chat with her for long.

My dear evie lent me her old Sony-Ericson phone. Thank goodness. If not i'd hav no phone to use. Bleah. Bt i dun feel so nice la. Borrow other's ppl fone. What if it died on me? *CHOY CHOY* It beta not die in my hands. :P
My dad made a mistake, saying that my contract already ended, on the 21 march. BULLSHIT. My contract still had more than 6 months to go. It'll onli end on the 18th Febuary. BLEAH. No new line and no new fone for me nw. To think i was so happy when i was told tat my contract had "already ended". All happy for nth. >.<
So i guess i'll juz continue using evie's phone and see if there's any super worth buying 2nd hand phone. I'll be looking forward to August as i can sign up for a new plan under name as i'll be officially 18 then :) Then can get my desired N73. WHEEEEE> lol.
This is it. :)
