This is what i have been doing

Dear Ah Yi, Ah Gong, Papa and Mama,


This is what your girl has been doing for the past few months:

Number ONE:

Waking up early, reach East Coast at 7am in the morning. Not to pat tor, but to film the waves, and the swaying trees and to catch old people doing Qi Gong.

p/s: i so LOVE this sand castle picture i took :)


Number TWO:

Hiding in the studio, not because to enjoy the freezing air conditioning. But trying to shoot some shots for my deadline-is-coming-soon-FYP.


Number THREE:

And park myself in the Editing Room, trying to edit the video and audio till wee hours.

Note: this is definitely not the FB Spot the Difference Game -_-

And on this nice study-break-friday, when nobody is back in editing room, we are here editing our evening and nights away. I took a cab home and reached at 1215AM.

P/S: i miss my black hair!

Not playing, not having fun. But serious, tiring work.

Yours sincerely,
Little Ow

a woman's pain

As i look at some women who bounces as they walk with their extraordinary high heels, i just wonder how they can ever do it and stare at them in bewilderment.

It's even more shocking when they can walk in it for 12 hours!

Ok, call me a tomboy wadever
i seriously don't think that u need to be able to wear heels to be a fair lady

and i dun understand why high heels is always link with formal wear
why can't i just wear slippers!
ok fine, that's out of point.

but why can't i wear flats!

and so, with my nicely ironed formal wear and a pair of high heels,
i kick-kick-kock-kock from amk to boon lay.

along the whole mrt ride, i just curse myself
i can't remember buying this pair of high heels
and it's bloody painful

so i curse myself why i buy this pair of heels
and i curse myself again for wearing it.

a supposedly 1.5hrs of journey became 2 hours,
because im walking like a real princess now
one slow step at each time.

not that i can't balance, but...

WAHLOU EH!
IT"S SIBEI PAINFUL CAN!

i skipped the second half of the interview workshop,
went Popular to get assessment for my students and DV tapes for my video

oh my goodness, the walk from boon lay mrt to 179 bus stop took mi 15 mins!!
oh god,
i dun need u to drop money from the sky

but can u please drop a pair of slippers? HAHAHAHA -_-

growing up

I guess when you go out to work, when you face more people, you become more mature in your thinking. This is what I felt when i met Xiaomei for lunch today.

Somehow inside me, i m starting to admire her.
be it about life or about relationships,
she knew what she wants.

and just by talking to her in person,
i felt that she has grown :)

it's amazing how after so many years from secondary school,
we are back again
meeting for meals
having these lil women's talk.

what's more surprising,
our junior, which is onli 21years old,
is getting married next jan to a man who is 10 years older than her
that was rather shocking,
but well good for her and i wish her all the best.

this is the 1st day that i felt i was having holidays.
throughout the whole week, i have been up in school till late for editing.
and tml i will still be there editing till wee hours.

it's scary that march is approaching,
cuz it means fyp deadline is drawing near.
and it's scary becuz there are still black frames that needed us to shoot cutaways.

never do a fyp piece that needs FEEL -_-
totally no more ideas liao.
we have film so much sky, trees, sun, clouds, flowers -_-

and i didnt have the time to catch up with all the readings.
and i need to complete as many reports and projects.
i wan to spoil market! bt no time :(
gosh.

and a financial planning company called mi down for an interview
the person says i apply for it during ntu career fair
-ponders- i don't remember jotting down my number.
but well, im not going for the interview.

im missing the yac people!
i hope i can join u guys tml :)

21 February 09

Met Jon Jon with his pretty gf in Changi Airport today! He said I became prettier and couldn't recognise me -_- Anw, thanks for the compliment.

Then met Li Shan to go travel fair in suntec. despite the economy downturn, everyone is still going holiday man. and there is even a long queue for the european country section.

And i met fizh in raffles city. so qiao! he just bought taiwan tix and he will be leaving with his gf right after his exams.

well, shan and i initially planned to go vietnam. but in the end got so tempted by taiwan, so we decided to go taiwan.

unfortunately, her mummy doesn't allow her to go last minute, so we didnt buy the air tix in the end. but it's alright, we'll go next time yea! :)

no travel nvm, we can satisfy ourselves with food!

the curry is yummy, but too much for me!

I forgot to bring my hall keys. Good Job Miss Ow! -_-

My New Favourite Song

原來，思念的力量遍及記憶的每一處；
原來，深愛的人不會隨著時間消逝；
原來，當我擁有了關於愛的記憶與能力，
這就是「最幸福的事」。




最幸福的事

詞:馬嵩惟 曲:劉宜 演唱:梁文音

你撐著雨傘 接我那次
已經足夠我 記得一輩子
我懂後來你 不是不堅持
愛情本來就 沒萬無一失

淚水離開了 你的手指
那不如讓它 留在這信紙
我想女孩子 最貼心的是
讓愛的人選 結束的方式

我最幸福的事 當過你的天使
趁鼻酸能掩飾 讓我們像當時 擁抱最後一次
最幸福的事 吹蠟燭時你總為我許願的手勢
為摯愛的人 在左邊心口保留位置 是最幸福的事

可惜愛不是 童話故事
不能夠永遠 依賴著王子
再難過其實 只剩兩個字
我怎麼忍心 為難你解釋

我最幸福的事 當過你的天使
趁鼻酸能掩飾 讓我們像當時 擁抱最後一次
最幸福的事 吹蠟燭時你總為我許願的手勢
為摯愛的人 在左邊心口保留位置 是最幸福的事

那一陣子有你 美得不像現實
多高興每一幕都微笑著靜止

我最幸福的事 牽著你的日子
一段愛從開始 即使分開我們 都對彼此誠實
最幸福的事 對那片海用力大喊永遠的樣子
想得起那時 那天和你傻笑著認識
是最幸福的事

Lang Bei Ah!~

Woke up at 630am to go Queenstown for a shoot. I really pray that Monday will be the last one in studio. Im getting real tired after so many 630am days.

Well, it went pretty okay except that Shu Wan got a wrong cable from Vincent, hence not able to connect the wireless mic to the camera, hence using camera mic to record interview and demonstration. But well, that aside, we managed to capture some pretty nature scenes by the roadside. LOVE IT!

Then took cab to SGH to take a short hospital scene. When we reach there, it was drizzling. Shu Wan has to leave for a camp. So we decided to go for lunch before we start work again.

By the time we finished lunch, the rain had stop. So we walk from Blk 1 to A&E to shoot. But can't find a nice spot so we deicded to walk to Blk 5 to try. While we were walking halfway from A&E, SUDDENLY, it started to rain damn heavily. DOWNPOUR!

It was a real sudden.

So two petite girls, with a camera, tripod, monitor, audio box and wireless mic box got no shelter anywhere near. A&E is far away, and Block 5 is nowhere in sight.

The worst thing, WE ONLY HAVE GOT MY ONE PATHETIC UMBRELLA!

It was raining so heavily that the road is flooding la. So we open the umbrella and shelter the camera. (Hai, camera life is much more precious than us). I tried to hire cab but the cabs that came in, either dont want to pick us up (cuz it wasnt a taxi stand) or they were hired.

BOBIAN, we decided to walk back A&E instead of standing in the rain like two idiots. Carrying a audio box, two wireless mic and the monitor in my hand, it was way to heavy and everything just fell. (AND guess what, the monitor battery cover is broken and nowhere to be found!)

So when we reach A&E, the umbrella is useless, two of us were dripping water, everything is wet. We opened everything to check and shunbian secretly capture some hospital scenes.

狼狈 is the word.

For my four years in CS, i have never been so helpless with all the wet camera and equipment man. To make things worse, theres only two of us and a small umbrella.

So now, Im trying to dry my camera and tripod bag. Thank goodness everything else is fine.

Then went for tuition. GOSH, my student's family got another big dog. they have already got one small active barking dog, and now they have got another one with barks louder and bites! it just freaks mi out everytime.

They are onli living in 5 room flat and the whole flat is filled with 7 people and two dogs.

I screeched when i went there the first lesson when the small dog tries to lick my leg. from then on, the mom remembered to lock all her dogs in the cage when im having tuition. but this new big current dog is too big for a cage. so he is just bring tied around a pillow. gosh, i dun understand why do u need so many dogs!

Met Brian after that and oh mine, it's like after 5 years? But he has never changed a bit :)

Term break has started but i will be in school for editing everyday except for thursday. Can life get tougher than this?

Tired. Sucks.

Handwriting Analysis

This personality profile is based on the writing of Maureen Ow created at the website: Handwriting Wizard.com - Handwriting University's Official automated personality report creator based on standardized basic personality traits as taught through Handwriting University's Certification Level Program.

http://www.handwritingwizard.com

Maureen is moderately outgoing. Her emotions are stirred by sympathy and heart rendering stories. In fact, she can be kind, friendly, affectionate and considerate of others. She has the ability to put herself into the other person's shoes.

Maureen will be somewhat moody, with highs and lows. Sometimes she will be happy, the next day she might be sad. (Agree! A typical Gemini character!) She has the unique ability to get along equally well with what psychology calls introverts and extroverts. This is because she is in between. Psychology calls Maureen an ambivert. She understands the needs of both types. Although they get along, she will not tolerate anyone that is too "far out." She doesn't sway too far one way or the other.

When convincing her to buy a product or an idea, a heart rendering story could mean a great deal to her. (Yup, that's my weakness) She puts herself in the same situation as the person in the story, yet she will not buy anything that seems overly impractical or illogical. Maureen is an expressive person. She outwardly shows her emotions. She may even show traces of tears when hearing a sad story. - Reminds me of the time when I cried in lecture while watching Er Mo Zai Shen Bian with rj. HAHA, damn paiseh!

Maureen is a "middle-of-the-roader," politically as well as logically. She weighs both sides of an issue, sits on the fence, and then will decide when she finally has to. She basically doesn't relate to any far out ideas and usually won't go to the extreme on any issue.

People that write their letters in an average height and average size are moderate in their ability to interact socially. According to the data input, Maureen doesn't write too large or too small, indicating a balanced ability to be social and interact with others.

Maureen will demand respect and will expect others to treat her with honor and dignity. Maureen believes in her ideas and will expect other people to also respect them. She has a lot of pride.

Maureen will be candid and direct when expressing her opinion. She will tell them what she thinks if they ask for it, whether they like it or not. So, if they don't really want her opinion, don't ask for it!

Maureen has a desire for attention. People around Maureen will notice this need. She may fulfill this need by a variety of ways depending on her own character. - ABSOLUTELY!

In reference to Maureen's mental abilities, she has a very investigating and creating mind. She investigates projects rapidly because she is curious about many things. She gets involved in many projects that seem good at the beginning, but she soon must slow down and look at all the angles. She probably gets too many things going at once. (oh mine, that's true! multi tasking!) When Maureen slows down, then she becomes more creative than before. Since it takes time to be creative, she must slow down to do it. She then decides what projects she has time to finish. Thus she finishes at a slower pace than when she started the project.

She has the best of two kinds of minds. One is the quick investigating mind. The other is the creative mind. Her mind thinks quick and rapidly in the investigative mode. She can learn quicker, investigate more, and think faster. Maureen can then switch into her low gear. When she is in the slower mode, she can be creative, remember longer and stack facts in a logical manner. She is more logical this way and can climb mental mountains with a much better grip.

Maureen is a practical person whose goals are planned, practical, and down to earth. This is typical of people with normal healthy self-esteem. She needs to visualize the end of a project before she starts. she finds joy in anticipation and planning. Notice that I said she plans everything she is going to do, that doesn't necessarily mean things go as planned. Maureen basically feels good about herself. She has a positive self-esteem which contributes to her success. She feels she has the ability to achieve anything she sets her mind to. However, she sets her goals using practicality-- not too "out of reach". She has enough self-confidence to leave a bad situation, yet, she will not take great risks, as they relate to her goals. A good esteem is one key to a happy life. Although there is room for improvement in the confidence catagery, her self-perception is better than average.

Maureen is sarcastic. This is a defense mechanism designed to protect her ego when she feels hurt. She pokes people harder than she gets poked. These sarcastic remarks can be very funny. They can also be harsh, bitter, and caustic at the same time. - RIGHT, but i meant no harm!

Something is incomplete in Maureen's life. She feels frustration relating to her physical needs and desires. Somewhere in her life there is some disappointment, non-fulfillment, and interruption. This is very likely to relate to Maureen's sexual needs. - Erm, perhaps something is incomplete in my life, but i don't think it's my sexual needs -_-

Maureen has a healthy imagination and displays a fair amount of trust. She lets new people into her circle of friends. She uses her imagination to understand new ideas, things, and people.

Maureen has a very unusual lower zone y loop. If the data input is correct, Maureen's y or g is large and opens up to the left side of the page. This is not a common trait, but the implications are very interesting. As you begin to study handwriting analysis, you will learn any loop indicates imagination. This lower loop indicates the amount of imagination Maureen has regarding sex and physical things. So, her lower zone stroke is large, so her sexual imagination is large and open. Furthermore, because the loop is incomplete and extends to the left, this indicates a particular fascination with certain aspects of sexuality that have not been fulfilled, yet. In a nutshell, Maureen is open to some very new ideas sexually and is willing to try anything once.

I'd say Maureen is quite a dynamic and playful lover. Watch out world! CRAP -_-

人情可贵

很多事情，不能只是用理智的想法去判断而解决。对一个一直在帮助我的陌生人，欠她的那份人情，一辈子都得抱着感激。

现在不管手上的工作有那么的紧迫而喘不过气，我真的很希望能帮她完成任务。浪费时间也好，帮她推销也罢，她也不曾义无反顾地帮了我们？

为什么他们不能明白我为难之处呢？

也能理解吧，因为是我向她寻求援助的。他们只需吩咐我跟她联络，也不会晓得从这一点一点的沟通里制造了友谊，也无法让我推辞。我知道自己可能自身难保了，我知道我在和时间赛跑了，其实就只是一个小忙，只需花费几个小时，真的有这么难吗？

若真的不行，至少请用好一点的语气拒绝我。请别给我脸色，大家都很有压力，但并不代表一定要语中带刺。别忘了，我们是一伙的。

*****

人在不同的年龄对爱情的观点都会不同。十几岁的时候，觉得那些天真幼稚的爱情不会一辈子。二十几岁的我，觉得活在当下的爱情最为珍贵。那30岁的我，又会怎么看待爱情呢？

前天听到一个30 岁女人对爱情的看法，简直让我大吃一惊。或许是她对爱情已经绝望了，又或者她太爱他了，让她竟然毫无反抗去接受这一切。

其实掌控权就在男人的手里，为什么一直姗姗不肯决定呢？

我真的希望小妹幸福。

D is the alphabet

fuck up

That's too much for a Monday!

If you think that waking up at 5AM on a Sunday to go for a shoot at East Coast Park is bad enough, how about waking up on the next day at 530AM?

As we didn't manage to find elderly doing Qi Gong on a bright Sunday morning, we have to wake up early again and head to the small park in Ang Mo Kio to film them.

So it was 5.30AM - Brush up, shower, breakfast.

630AM: Met Shu Wan at AMK Park and start our morning shoot. Thank goodness the aunties were all very friendly and they allowed us to shoot. They are dying to go on TV and be some TV stars. It was real fun with them and they even invited us to join them for kopi cum breakfast!

730AM: Finish shoot, head to MRT back to school.

9AM: Reach hall, pack stuff and head back to school for ANOTHER SHOOT.

1015AM: Still in the damn bloody slow shuttle bus. Im sorry if you don't like to hear this but allow me to make a small lil' complain about the AH TEONGS which I really can kowtow to them.

If you say Singaporeans are kiasu, I think that's a very wrong statement. Or perhaps this wasn't the case for NTU Singaporean students. In a bus stop, u can clearly recognise who are the AH TEONGS and who are our fellow singaporeans.

Those that die die want to get on the bus 1st are usually our dear AH TEONGS, unless our fellow singaporeans are late for lessons. If cannot get up the bus, we will just wait for the next one. Or at least, we won't be dying to board the bus first. So scared for what? The bus won't leave without you what. If it really does, wait la! Will die meh?

For instances when the bus is full or they didn't manage to be the first to get on the bus, our dear AH TEONGS will MAKE SURE that they die die have to get on the bus no matter what. So? They SQUEEZE like nobody's business.

I mean it.

Me, carrying a big bag, a paperbag full of fragile glass and a lagguage with a camera, trying to board the damn bloody slow shuttle bus (bus uncle is another dear AH TEONG who always give the stuck up and heck care look). I would just wait for another bus if I am early. But the problem is, I am already so bloody late. See that I only have a pathetic small space along the boarding steps, I still decided to lug all my stuffs up the damn bloody slow shuttle bus.

So in front of me, there were a group of Ah Teongs. Seeing me carrying a camera lagguage, like a siao cha bor, with a big bag and a handbag, they just continue talking and don't even have the common sense to shift in at least a step, for mi to put down my lagguage. Until I stare at them with my killer eyes, as if Im going to kill them anytime with my precious sibei expensive video camera and die together.

So they moved in and I managed to at least let my lagguage rest on the floor. Note: I am still standing at the boarding steps with a big bag and a handbag with a fragile glass round fish tank.

Guess what? ANOTHER TWO AH TEONG was dying to board the damn bloody slow shuttle bus. And they really did! Cuz they just push their way up, SQUEEZE ME like a sardine, step on my toe till I can just fall to death with my lagguage.

Of course I didn't fall lah. But you know the feeling of being SQUEEZED in the middle, that u can hardly breathe and u still have to protect the precious sibei expensive video camera with that stupid bulky lagguage.

Oh mine, at that moment, I just hope that i made a big loud noisy and smelly FART that everyone will just get down.

So the damn bloody slow shuttle bus travels slowly and made its stops at every bus stop. Then together with a big bag on my shoulder, a handbag full of fragile things on my hand and lugging a camera lagguage on the other hand, I get down at all stops to let the people alight.

What's worse? When the bus reaches Canteen B bus stop and I get down to let the others alight. I waited for a while, seeing that nobody is alighting anymore, I sapped my failing energy and drag the camera lagguage, big bag and handbag up the bus once again.

And guess what?

Two female AH TEONGS were too engross in their own conversation that they forgot to alight earlier.

Fuck, so ME, with messy hair, sweating like nobody's business, camera lagguage, handbag of fragile stuff and a big bag with me, alight the bus again to let them get down the bus.

If I do not need the fish tank for my shoot anymore, I will just throw it at their head.

It's so FUN to alight and board the bus with so many heavy things! WOO! -_-


And finally i got down the bus. I met Shu Wan on the way and the first thing I said was, "f***".

It doesn't help when three small girls are doing video fyp together.
It doesn't help the bus is so crowded.
It doesn't help when the AH TEONGS are around!!!!!

Ok, end of my small lil' complaint.

so 1030AM, we started our next FYP shoot at our TV Studio. Need to create a mystical scene, showing a fortune telling lady. I think I can be the prop woman liao cuz I source for all the materials and arrange them in a cool way.

It is our first shot for the video, so it has got to be captivating and attractive enough for people to have the passion to continue watching.

Photos below:

We took very long to trial and error the lightings. It was difficult but when u get the result, u will be super happy.



Looks familar? My cloth! My candles (from hall)! My tarot cards!



Ok I noe. LAUGH AT ME, come on! I thought I have wrapped myself well enough so that i am not that recognizable. But the whole world still recognise me! OH MINE! Am I so easy identifiable meh?

Anyway, Im supposed to sit there and shuffle my tarot cards as thou Im some mystical secretive fortune teller, like those u see in the shows. (not for eerie purpose please!)

I think it looks damn cool. Though Mary says I look like some Middle Eastern Woman.



I searched high and low for a crystal ball so that I can film it. But it was a futile attempt. And in the end, my dad brought me to MUSTAFA on Sunday night and get a round glass fish tank! SO STUPID RIGHT!

The shopping experience with my parents were unplesant. So I shall not bring it up.

Anyways, yes, i have to cover the top with my hand so that it looks round. FUNNY RIGHT!

You cannot believe how much / thick eye shadow and eye liner I drew. I also cannot believe because it irritates my eyes immediately i applied it and it is damn hard to wash them away.

And it took my 20 minutes to remove the black nail polish on my fingers. I didnt have cotton wool in hall and damn, i couldnt clean it properly and there are still black stains. I don't want people to think I got poisoned, so i cleaned it away. Now, i think people will think im dirty because of the black stains on my fingers. Damn. Good job Miss Ow! -_-

The shoot ended at 3pm, then we went to upload the stuffs into computer before going to lunch.

330pm: Lunch at Canteen B. Seriously there is nth nice here, considering the fact tt i ate 3 times a week? I was hungry till Im not hungry anymore and didn't even finish the plate of rice I bought.

430pm: attended marketing lecture with Yong Tian and i fell asleep 10 mins after I sat down. It wasn't because of the lecturer but I was really tired. Then I was wrong. It was by a new lecturer and he seriously mumbles and mumbles to himself and doesn't know how to talk properly and gives super boring notes and lecture that once again, i fell asleep. of course, Yong Tian was busy reading the car forum and msning that he didnt pay attention too. LOL

630PM: rushed back to editing room and join the girls to continue editing our documentary. It's mid feb and we have to die die show the supervisor our rough cut by tomorrow no matter what.

930PM: I forgot the bring my lappy charger to hall and thank goodness Ah Yi travel all the way from home to bring mi the charger. THANK YOU YI! SHe also bought waffles for us!

10PM: Editing room suppose to close but we continue editing.

1115PM: We have finally did a we-think-it's-not-that-bad rough cut and packing to go home. There's no more bus and damnit, CS and HALL 11 is freaking far. Well, being a HAM-JI (aka timid) woman, I am really afraid to walk alone in the dark. Thank goodness Shuwan agreed to accompany mi to walk back to my hall before she goes back to her hall. THANK YOU!

12AM: Reached hall, FINALLY. it was indeed a long way back hall. Switch on the computer and our FYP supervisor wants to meet us 3PM tml, so called the girls and liase for a while.

1215AM: slowly make my way to shower, brush teeth etc etc.

1245AM: Started to blog. I have yet to finish my draft report, havent even got time to open the book to do reading, havent finish up my drama journal. Just kill me.

2.09AM: Just finished blogging. I have been awake for close to 24hours and Im freakin tired. I need to wake up at 8AM to go to school and continue editing at 9AM. and im left with 6 hours of sleep.

That's too much for a Monday!

No wonder my tuition kid said this to me on Sunday:"Teacher Maureen, why your eye bags so heavy and you got dark eye rings!"

DUH! NO ENOUGH SLEEP LA!

I can't wait for the holidays to come. Although it will be 10AM-10PM editing EVERYDAY.

*I need a hug*


张惠妹A-Mei 如果你也听说

Happy Valentine's Day!

I had a meaningful V Day, what about you?

Well, it doesn't have to be the day where you must deperately find a hot date to go out with. Spending it in the Old Folks Home can be meaningful too!

After tuition, went down to Old Folks Home to make V Day gifts for the old folks. I have a big mission today, that is to teach the volunteers how to make lollipop roses together with Ling.

Lotsa students from different JC and YEC came to help us despite the fact that it's V Day!

As ours need more time and effort, we only need to produce 50 lollipop roses and tadeh! with the help of so many, we manage to finish it within two hours! SO PRETTY right! Love it man and I nearly want to run away with it. If you were to buy this bouquet outside, you probably have to pay close to 100 bucks. But hey! our material fee for this bouquet is less than $20! But of course, each elderly gets a stalk only lah.

The two lollipop roses instructors. Tired but we were satisfied with our final product! :)

Another group were also creative. They used napkins to roll into roses. 100 roses is their target!

When all roses gather, it's a beautiful sight!

Went around the four storey building giving roses to the elderlys and singing songs for them. Some shake hands with the elderly, some clap along with them, some give them flowers, some play guitar and all of us were very spontaneous! Though many of them doesnt remember this day or doesnt even noe what they are holding, but the smiles on their faces are precious :)

Ah Ma is shy but she is grateful for the flowers :)

All of us had fun, don't we?

After spending the whole afternoon there, rushed down to meet Fungie for dinner. Blur me, forgot to bring handphone on such a busy day! So had to go around borrowing handphones. Thank goodness I remembered all their numbers! HAHA

Went to shop in Marina Sqaure and Fungie is sure in a shopping mode. She says if she didn't buy a single thing yesterday, she will write her name backwards (DUH -_-)

And indeed, she bought lotsa things! 1 shirt, 1 blouse, 1 pair of shoes, 1 CD, cut her fringe, 1 magazine. OH MINE, did i miss out anything? Haha

And i tried on this while we were at Topshop. It's supposed to be a top but weird me likes the pyjamas feel and wore it as a dress. Love it but it's way too expensive for a piece like that and I am sure I will get scolding by any member of the family if i were to bring this home. HAHA

Well, Im too short to be a supermodel, so let me do a small dream here. The multiple mirror effect is cool.

While waiting for the kind salesgirl to get me a smaller size...

Dinner was at Waraku, which we went there to get queue number as early as 6PM. it was super long and there wasn't any guarantee of seats. Then we also queue for Swensens but in the end drop out of queue cuz we wana eat Waraku.

Oh mine, everywhere is super long queue and even the ATM machine is like that. It seems like all couples must go out on street and have a date on this day, which makes the whole mall overpopulated.

But i guess im one of the stupid one too, to have some v day singles dinner with Fungie on this day and competing with so many couples out there for food! LOL

Anyway, finally after waiting for long, we entered Waraku!

Fungie says Happy Valentine's Day to me in a sad tone. HAHA

MoMo says Qing Ren Jie Kuai Le to her in a sian tone. HAHA

The food is alot. Fungie's konkatsu set.

I repeat, the food is ALOT. my paper steamboat set.

We left the restaurant feeling satisfied but full. Then accompany Fungie to cut her fringe where we meet her choir mate in secondary school. And the funny part is, she recognises me instead of Fungie. Frankly I totally don't remember who she is at the beginning. and she asks mi about Fungie, which makes me more blur. here is our stupid conversation.

She: How is Meiling (aka Fungie)? Have u seen her?
Me: (still in a blur mode as to who she is) Meiling? (stunned for a while) hmmmm...
She: I heard she slimmed down.
Me: Really? I haven't seen her for 3 years!
She: Isit!
Me: ya the last time i saw her she about the same leh.

WTF! Im totally like taking rubbish la when i meet fungie like 3 times a month! -_-
When Fungie finishes cutting her hair and footing the bill, the girl still didnt recognise Fungie! and she was still talking to me. (she says i still look the same)

i really think im stupid.

It was when we left the salon and fungie goes like: "is she XXX?"

I am like totally awaken and shocked! and i go like: "OMFG! YA!!!"

So we turn back and talk to the girl again. But this time i really know who she is.

time flies man. and oh mine, she still recognises me and my name which i totally canot. im sorry! haha. And she is getting married this year, inter racial marriage. how cool! all the best to xiaoli! wrong, it's penny! :)

Well, that sort of concludes my v day. We saw alot of bfs on the street tying shoelaces for their gfs yesterday too. and i think it's rather stupid and unneccessary. because i dont think the guy would do that on other days.

On V Day,
Girl: ah, my shoelaces are loose.
Boy: Come i help u tie.

On a normal day,
Girl: ah, my shoelaces are loose.
Boy: u dont have hands to tie yourself meh?

And we also see alot of super young couples! like in sec 1 or 2. cuz the boy still very boy boyish so it gave their age away. haiyo, why are more people getting mature at such a young age! teachers, please teach the students! HAHA

and it also ended with lishan's sms saying, "why are we always dateless on v day?"
it's ok gal, im sure u will find ur love love soon n not spend the day at home looking at ur smoky mixer. LOL.

Went to watch an opera play with Alicia on Friday night at esplanade theatre, directed by michael. very interesting, they have two plays within them and one talks about the wandering scholar who finds himself in the midst of an illicit liaison between a lusty farmwife and her priest. its very funny. too bad it only lasts for one hour! haha

And I woke up today at 5AM to go down east coast for FYP shoot, so now im back home. Gosh, Im damn bloody tired. My legs are breaking from yesterday's shopping!

Singapore Flyer!

Jalyn Jie's Taiwan friend (Eason) came to Singapore yesterday and I got a call from Shigong in the afternoon to join him in bringing Eason around. Had tuition initially but I was tired and don't really feel like going. So using this as an excuse, I cancelled my tuition. Haha!

As my lesson ended at 530pm and I was carrying alot of things home, so I met the guys later and join them for dinner in Lau Pat Sat. We had yummy stingray, lala, squid, satay, chicken wings! And I had my usual coconut drink :)

Then cabbed down to Singapore Flyer. Let me tell u small secret:
I have never sit Singapore Flyer before!

I did visited Singapore Flyer when I was working in food magazine, and I have tried all the restaurants there. The restaurant owners did invited me to try the Singapore FLyer but I think I wasn't in the right state of mind that time so I turn them down.

But well, sitting Flyer during the day is absoluetly waste of money. Cuz it's the night view of Singapore that is the most beautiful.

Don't believe? Take a look below!

Shigong always 吉他不离手, so he sang in the capsule.

And got Eason to sing as well!

I had fun yesterday! And I hope the guys like the chocolates I got for them :)
THANK YOU SHIGONG for treating me to Singapore Flyer!

And to you: Thanks for the lovely surprise :)

Potluck at NUS

It started in December, when I was trying to gather everyone to celebrate Xmas and Fungie's Birthday. But plans failed as everyone went for holiday and Fungie kena chicken pox.

So this time round, I must succeed. So I tried to gather everyone again, with the surface intention of CNY gathering. Everything went smoothly and our initial plan was to have a Potluck at Botanical Gardens on Sunday.

Then when the time drew nearer, there were drastic changes. Weibo had fever, Jun Yue can't make it down to Botanical Gardens as he was busy preparing for V Day Carnival in NUS. So he suggested that we have our potluck in NUS so that we can help him too.

Then Andrew said he doesn't want to travel that fast and Tommy had things on in the evening.

In the end, 3 of us went. Yes, initally we had close to 10 people, but we are then left with the three pathetic ones. Well, Jun Yue sponsored our cab fare la, not that bad. With so much food, we arrived at NUS.

Oh mine, the table is so MESSY that perhaps if you place a pen on it, you probably can't find that pen anymore. I think we are some crazy aunties, bringing food while volunteering. LOL. And we are really well prepared, you want tissue? I have! You want plate? I have! You want fork and spoon? I also have! HAHA

We are supposed to pose with an expression of how pathetic our Sunday picnic turns out to be, but I just thought the heart shape is so nice that I dont want to spoil the pics with a sad face!

Eat before we start work ah!

Then Yue Yin came to join us. Hehe, lazy me, the girls are all very hardworking, except for me who frequently surf net, play facebook and shop online using Adrian's computer!

Xiaoling!

Yue Yin!

ME!

Jun Yue!

Fungie!

Can you believe it? We have known each other for 10 years already. OH MINE! TIME FLIES!

And I really love the following two pics:

仙女下凡！LOL

Peeping at what Ling is drawing!

AWWW! How sweet can! She is drawing something for her bf! And what does 9120 means? Hehe, it's a secret!

This Siao Eh - Construction worker cum fallen angel, hungry for love? LOL

The wonders of self timer!

And well, besides the potluck, we are here to celebrate Fungie's belated birthday! it is really super belated, her bday is 30 December and look when is it now.

Bought her a Baby G, which she just updated on her wishlist. Hope she loves it! :)

Group Photo! with Jun Yue's friend! Though I dunnoe any of their names, but they sure contributed to the fun we had! And we LO HEI with one chopstick each!

This is our heart-work (hard work). Yes, we cut the hearts and string them together so that they can hang in the whole NUS Arts walkway.

Im sure it was a memorable sunday for all of us. Doing things together just like what we did in secondary school days, having small little girl's talk along the way, listening to music, singing...好回味...wonder when will we have this chance again.

p.s. I miss you, I really do.
