YAY. Got my lappie battery at SimLim Square today. Seriously i detest walking around, or rather, shop, in SimLim Square. Those uncles and big brothers will give you that you-know-about-computers-meh those kinda look. IRRITATING. And they'll have a super duper high mark-up, then wait for you to bargain. I'd be stupid if i din. Haha.
Had walked 3 rounds around the level 5 of SimLim Square before i found and bought my laptop battery. It better be good if not i'll get back and scream at that lady. But i realised that many shops do not have the stock themselves. They'd call someone else and get them to locate the stocks for them instead. Furthermore, they can only let me know the price after hitting their calculators. Does that mean that they draw commissions? As what they're selling me is a little higher than what i bought from the shop, ie. $160 (before discount :P).
Oh wells. You'll have to know your stuff and BARGAIN! hehe.
Oh shucks. I better get back to my work. FACTSHEET. =.= After a day of calls i finally got Jackie to replace me at work todae so that i can rest and home and try to get some work done.
The fever's coming again. I'd beta go do my work! Will update again (:

Vases and Chopsticks and Teacups
I've realised a recent trend in Singapore -- the gers are getting slimmer and slimmer, even to the extent of skinny. That's what i call CHOPSTICKs. Slim and tall. I wonder how did they survive, if they're constantly on diet, or even not eating. >.< Or was it their genes?
Then is is our fault that we're born smaller in size and cuter? And why must smaller ppl be labelled cute and not anything else? And why are guys prefering bimbotic gers who's not even that gorgeous and are not kind at heart to average looking girls with a kind and nice soul?
Is thick make up all that matters? Having make up on can impose a good impression and allow one to look more presentable. I put on light make-up quite often too. A thick make-up as a facade doesn't help to cover your bad side. They will be still visible, to the girls at least. Males are the only one who are oblivious to the negative sides of those girls i guess. I'm not trying to make a sweeping statement that all girls with thick make-up are bad in person, just some thoughts from my own experience.
Many guys around me are attracted to girls with super duper thick make-up whose personality did not get the nods from the people around them. I mean, they're just like imitation vases, which looks beautiful on the outside but will leak water once you bring it home and start to arrange your flowers.
When would guys start to appreciate Teacups like us? Small, dainty and reliable and won't leak when you pour in the steaming tea with an aroma.

《就是俊杰》 世界巡回演唱会 成功!!
24.o6.o6 is a day i'll never forget. Not my anniversary with my boyfriend, bt a day with the sweet, shy and talented guy, JJ Lin.
I've never regretted buying the S$130 ticket for the first row on the east of the stage, even though it was Catrina who pestered me to buy the most expensive one :P . It was close yet not too close that i cant see. It's simply fabulous. I can even reach and grab the many stars that went past me, ie. Milk, Jenny, Jeff Wang, JinSha and many more. (: Bt i din la. I not so CF le k..lol
Lan Bo lao shi was also there as the overall in charge of the dance. The costumes and dance were great. The whole concert had a theme and concept, as they had for JJ's songs. There was this costume that he had to go almost topless, he was very professional during the performance, but after he finished the dance, he reverted back to his shy self and starting giggling at his near-half nudity. Haha. Cute la him.
He also did play on a white grand piano and sang some songs with JinSha, as well as of his songs that he wrote for the others. In addition, he also sang some of the songs of others that he admired, ie. Jay Chou and Michael Jackson. Shall post up the wav. files soon (: Will post up some pics soon as well (:
All in all, the concert was a super duper success! The whole indoor stadium was FULL. Seriously. Even fuller than ENERGY's one :P.
That's the difference between 实力派 and 偶像派。。Not that i dun like ENERGY, dun get the wrong idea. I used to be damn crazy about em. Just a comparison of the crowds that like em (:
Lalala. still in the JJ concert mood. :P

Sentosa wid NRA peeps!
Try sun tanning without the sun. HA! We did some WIND tanning instead. LOL.
It was raining in the early morning, then it was drizzling and all gloomy throughout the day. I did thought of not turning up for the gathering. But i was thinking, oh well, juz go ahead and have some other fun with them, and i did (:
Me and Nessa did try to tan, but to no avail ): Then we did some soccer with Willie and Baowen. Willie was trying so hard to give in to us. 2 guys vs 5 gers. LOL. All his moves were in slow mo and his strength was reduced by at least half? If not we'll all be dead from all the ramming and stuff. LOL.
Damn fun. Had an early dinner at Pasta Mania which we met up with Jeanette, Skye and Sam they all. After a quick dinner we took cab and chionged back to sch. Haha. Thank god Ann wasn't early and we managed to get changed in time. Hee.
But things weren't looking really gd for her. May God bless her with smiles and happiness (: Go ger! (: No more tears! (:

Short but strong, Lean and Mean.
That's what Ann describes us as. I'm in (obviously) the Shorties team. Our song's damn cute, our actions are damn cute. Our choreo's damn cute. We're so gonna be damn cute with those skirts, knee length socks and stuff. OH shit. I shall not babble too much. Juz smth to lure u all to come for our production. (:
NOVEMBER 5th. OUR BIG DAY. NRA's BIG DAY..
I've been going for dance so often that my dad's pissed off. He think that i wanna be a professional dancer. Bt i dun hav that thought in my mind YET. I just wanna do my part well by practicing and preparing for the production. As wad Ann says, when u're on stage, everything's gotta be PERFECT. You're there to perform. Respect yourself and respect ur audience. (:
Many projs not done, and yet i wanna work and earn money. Grrr. SAVE UP!! Stop spending so much and plan ur time wisely ger!!

For once i din spend any money on clothes or other accessories. (: So proud of myself. LOL.
Went out for K session with Freda at the KBOX at Marina Square. After my personal experience and the feedback from my friend, i think i'd prefer the heartland Kbox (hougang) to the new and hearty outlet in Marina Square.
Freda bought herself a pair of thongs from NOVO, onli at $29.90, i can see that she's really satisfied. LOL. She kept grumbling she din buy anything. Can save money dun wan. LOL.
I went to check out the glitter eyeliner/eyeshadow at THE MAKE UP STORE. $27+. Will get it sooner or later for performance uses la, bt nt now. I'm sourcing for a good makeup box as well. Huge and best, waterproof. (: It better be worth the money as well. Oh yea, i'll be getting the dark brown eyeshadow at RED EARTH with recommendation from Luping. It's really great for our performances. (: It's $14. Oh well. so much money gonna spill outta my pocket. >.<

NRA CAMP 2006
I'll never forget this camp. It's so fun being a senior! Many responsibilities as well. I shall be brief in this entry for i'm going to turn in soon. EXHAUSTED!
I've certainly gained and learnt loads in this camp. Let's see a list of it for easier reading. LOL
I've lost the 2 kg that i've gained (muscles and fats) recently
I've realised my potential for hair styling :)
Got praises for my big and sparkling round eyes. LOL
Had fun being a senior (finally.haha)
Took care of the juniors
Made many new friends, including having some "relatives" like Uncle Joe, Han Papa, Alex Didi and Ben Darling. Not forgetting my Hubby Lu Ping. LOL.
Knew how irritating and WIERD some ppl can be. =.=
Bonded better with the seniors and with the freshies :)
Had done our own choreography with 4 hrs
Put up a showcase with full make-up,funky hairstyle and dope-y dresscode.
Had a feel of performance and feeling extremely STRESSED
and loads more...
haha. Basically had loads of fun la. (:
We were put into 10 different groups for this camp, with names of our recent/previous dance groups for our camp group names. My group's BATTALION, having Lu Ping as the leader and Uncle JOE as our assistant leader. Bt more like i'm the assistant and he's the welfare and entertainment leader. LOL. He's forever going around caring and helping others. Even those tat aren't out grp. I mean, it's gd helping one another la (:
Then we had a separate CD Group. Tat's for our showcase. I've got JJ Lin's team, along with Catrina and Lu Ping. We've got 2 great seniors, XuanFeng and SengKiat. Had a team of shy bt nice freshies as well (:
The first rehearsal was really screwed. Mistakes were made like nobody's business and our chemistry were like the drying water in the tiny pond. Some ppl still made really inane and disrespectful comment. OH well. We'll juz take it as how he is. Cant be bothered really. I mean, please respect urself and others can. *sigh(
Other than tat i really enjoyed myself in the team (: Though our choreo tat's put together with all the steps thought by everyone (really, everyone thought of 1-eight) is really simple, bt as Ann said, it's really street and suited the song well. Oh we danced to JJ Lin's 2ND HAVEN. :) She liked our concept as well. It's really funny. Will post up the video soon (:
My CD group commented that my eyes were really huge, like my mom said that my eyeballs looked as if they were to pop out any moment when i'm wearing/removing my contact lenses.LOL. They looked even bigger when i drew super thick eyeliner for performance. HAHHA.
Okae. My brain's not working well enuff le. SHall stop here and continue some other day, along with posting up the vidEos and pics. (:

Interpretations of Disasters: Pretty True.
I've got this Disasters Intepretation through mail. It's pretty true! Give it a try. I've chosen a D. What about you?
Look at the following scenarios:
A) Two people trapped in a lift. B) Nobody in a deserted village except yourself. C) Pollution of any kind (to the sea or land etc.) D) Buildings - collapse / fire disasters / natural disasters.
Which one do u feel is the most miserable??
Interpretations: * A) Two people trapped in a lift.*
You feel a bit inferior about yourself. You tend to think very well. However when it involves personal feelings, you are in a total mess!!!! * Lovelife:* You can manage a one to one relationship but when too many competitors or targets appear, you will tend to panic and ruin everything instead! Do not possess the ability to flirt around. Try not to be a boring lover. *
B) Nobody in a deserted village except yourself.*
You are basically a person who enjoys looking back to the past. A very emotional person indeed. Easily influenced by the people or surroundings around you. Eg. if society is sad about the death of Princess Diana, you will also share the same sentiments or when watching a sad movie...like Titanic, you will be so engrossed in the movie that you will end up being sadder than the main casts in the movie!!!!!!!
* Lovelife:* Very Messy! Are you a very confused person? Sometimes you like to be left alone; sometimes you want to be loved. Sometimes you need her/him; sometimes you don't?? Does it sound familiar? You better sort out yourself before you cause another party to be in pain for you. * C) Pollution of any kind (to the sea or land etc.)*
You are suitable to go into politics cause u are able to differentiate between wrong from right pretty well and plus...you are very decisive. * Lovelife:* However when it comes to love, you are very INDECISIVE... and so you are not suitable to fall in love. As in similar to (B) You sometimes need him/her, sometimes you don't......same advice!! You go think it over and better not hurt another innocent party!! * D) Buildings- collapse/fir disasters /natural disasters.*
You are a person who is full of ambitions and creativity. You are very concerned about changes in the issues around you. You are also a very temperamental person. Mood swings tend to be your cup of tea. * (yep the above is soooo true for me. lol.)
Lovelife:* You are very easily attracted to the opposite sex which means that u can't possibly be a gay if u are a guy and that u can't possibly be a lesbian if u are a gal... cause u just can't possibly resist the opposite among the opposite sex!!!!! (haha. quite true in a way too.) You can easily attract the opposite sex... (CONGRATS!!!) (er..for this are u sure? attract those who are NOT my kind ba... >.<) You are a great lover.(???) Sometimes you'll just wonder why so many people like to chat with you (er.. really meh?lol) You are juz the flamboyant-type of person!
So..how's urs? :) The first few about their lovelife are like "so not suitable to fall in love".. aiyo so jialiat meh? lol. What do you think? :)
