mood: +

Went out with Ronald for past nite and this afternoOn.
I watched Songs of the Seas @ last..
typical storyline but was wowed by the fire , fireworks and water display..
coOooOOool!

i guess everyone present there enjoyed cos there're alot of 'wows' and screams~

Ate at Taste of Thailand (yishun) today.
like wad R said, it's value for $$$.
and i lOve most of the foOd on the menu.


Sweet & Sour Pork: My favourite chinese dish and glad they cooked it well! I love crispy pork~
Ratings: 7.8/10
KangKong Belachan: the kangkong was fresh but it ain't spicy enough.
Ratings: 6.9/10
Lemon Chicken: crunchy yet tender..lemon taste just right.
Ratings: 8.2/10
Tom Yam Soup: oOo my first time drinking 'cloudy' tom yam. Not spicy but it does get to you (my stomach churned after a while)
Ratings: 7.4/10
Pineapple Fried Rice: Very generous servings of pork floss & raisins.
Ratings: 6/10. If not for pork floss, i'll think the rice will be really bland...not enough pineapple chunks.

And for the of $23 (+ we couldn't finish it)...this meal is ideal for 3 persons..which is very very cheap then lOlx.

I'm glutton & i sorta regretted when I couldn't take another bite (everyone noes that hardly happens.)
Next time perhaps~

mood:

finally my editing for film project is done. yayyyysssss.
i must say, no matter how crappy a movie is, it's HARD WORK.
i'm hoping we get a good grade ( din feel like it's a typical singaporean student film..maybe was just being biased).

am still waiting for the cd from shaiful) and i have dee shopping list (the main prop in the film!).
if it's going to be half famous, the shopping list can be put up on auction!
just a wild idea. lOlx.

i'm sure unprepared for lessons this whole week.
skipped classes ytd.
fell asleep in lecture today.
and will be totally unprepared for my 1st tutorial tomorrow.

the consoling factor is that i've started doing my work (or resolving to start) when compared to before yesterday, i felt like dumping all my work and leaving them to the last min.

i realized i din blog abt work days.
fri was Ok. it's quite boring actually and cos there's no one to poke fun until like during debriefing..

then Jason my Duty manager sent me and my frens home..
and Jason, being the rough type always tease Anthony (who is apparently what he says as obese)
and then it went on to how to slim down and Jason dieting on veggie delight subway sandwiches for 2 weeks..
and the skinny boys beside me luffed and said i'm a glutton.

and they reminisced about the times when they went Jalan Kayu to eat.

saturday was work day again.
it was 2nd tiring day and i tot the Make A Wish will kill me.
I had a great time tho..partly cos I worked @ the deck and there's Alan & Zhiyang & this new intern tt dey kept teasing (which i ended up doing the same thing), Jeffrey.

and i always luffed at his "please be careful of your footsteps" and "early childhood" when he used it to describe a 6 yr old.
even tho i knew him for like 8 hrs, he said we talked as if we've known each other for years.

it was horrible! that kid urinated in the capsule and all the way out.
of course there're other terrible things like a guest complaining to me about us and angry guests saying we're not following the normal procedures of letting pple go for the ride.
my name tag was frowned upon by a whole family. very bad and yuan wang experience.

But the shift was still all good.


:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

did consider not going for work today because i could hardly open my eyes for the 1st 1/2 hr and had to put alot of eye drops in order to get my eyelids back (i woke up with almost invisible eyelids this morning so it was a terrible feeling)
then there were very dark eyerings as well.

Cynthia & emmey said i looked horrible and puffy.
yea i know. crap.

Becos it was a public holiday, we see alot of elderly (and more wheelchair pax than any normal morning) & indians.
And i tot the company who sponsored their migrant workers to sit the Flyer was very sweet.
u could see their faces light up and dey're dressed quite smartly (with shirt and pants).

Emmey mentioned on Halloween some of the staff will dress up.
and he was being smug when he said there'll be thunder in less than 4 secs after a lightning.
we counted till 12. everyone just burst out laughing & he looked so embarrassed.
It was the longest debrief I had...like 45 mins.
and Jason seriously could go on and on.

my mind was not there already.
and it was raining.
so i went on home and will do what i can for my group because i couldn't make it for the bulk of the meeting already.

i am sad.
i feel alone.
and i feel like my bf is far away.
he says i can talk to him.
but even tho i do, i still feel insecure.

he says he will call me when he can.
he can only do this much.
he is another person when he's at work.
he changes.
he says he's tired and wants to sleep after all my wailing and crying.
i put down my phone and i feel alone.

there is no one to assure me.

even if you can, you're not him.
and he can only do this much.

i am very sad now.
my eyes are puffy and i can only see half.
i dunno why.

mood:

i kinda dread having to go to work tomorrow.
it's supposed 2 b a nice change & fun.
but it's so unpredictable all over again.

guess becos of my 2 days work, i can't do editing stuff for my film.
and i like editing although the comp seriously gets on my nerves (i have a reputation for getting mad @ comps).

god.
and i have problems expressing myself and writing properly.
hmpf.
it's like going back to sec skoo again.
maybe tt's why my exams are quite screwed..
given the limited time, we had to force our brain cells to think & then write coherently as our thoughts spilled all over like broken fountain pen nibs.

or maybe i'm getting the sociology disease. lOlx.
where most of my tutors and lecturers can't spell certain words and sometimes stumbled upon their words (tho their train of thought & logic remains).
but i'm a student. and i need to write better.

waiting for my videos to load.
takes eons (impatience with the comp again hehx).

mood:

i've decided to do things bit by bit.
argh. whatever hahas.
whatever works seriously.

i couldn't even listen to 2/3 of my soci lecture today.
or the proj we're going to do.
it's just so mundane & troublesome now (the thought of having to find 3 pple willing to be interviewed is just so arghed.)

everything seems like a drag.
maybe i should transform my life 360 deg: sleep like 10pm, wake up like 7am everyday...be nice gentle and caring...follows a schedule of workload...go online only when needed, read readings for my pasttime...
oh crap. is just so disciplined.

that's how far one can get when u're stuck in aust.
oh noo...told him a million times to crawl back.

mood:

oh god.
before i explain what's going on, lemme continue with ytd's.

Had Aston's with the jie-meis
and then Ben & Jerrys (tt's like the 3rd time in 7 days!)
and then to Mind Cafe for board games (which was manipulative, back stabbing & full of power play lOlx.)

then i finally received my gift from Raj.
SWEET RAJ *lol* who gave me a pair of pink inner earphones (becos i had spoiled earphones that time..but i bought a new one a few days later)
now i have another new pair!

but was tired and restless so i didn't do anything ytd.
and i won't do anything (i refuse despite a pile) today COS i've been out for like 14 hrs travelling & in the west doing a 10min short film for our proj.

guess we're slow @ the beginning parts..
which took like 2 hrs + for us to film the 1st scene.
but it picked up well...so we had everything frm morning to nite (and sunshine & lightning & thunderstorm...how drama).

and i'm glad my new shoes worked.
walked in them the whole day.

ARGH.
and despite filming, i haven't seen how i acted in front of the camera.
boOhoO. and it's tragic when they luffed @ one part (which they said was a damn good part..cOs i looked like i got the news of leukemia) but it was a rehearsal. -_-'''
lOlx.

more editting to do.
this week
next week HELL WEEKS.
SHIT SHIT SHIT.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RONALD!

and it's his 1st time going to the night safari =)
thanks farhan!

altho i went it again after 2 mths (god), it was a pleasant experience cos there's the halloween thing & i tot 'Creatures of the Night' show today was much much better lOlx.

the tram ride was fun (not cos the characters were freaky) but the people in the tram were freaky lOlx.
i tot the best 1 wasn't some stupid zombie/ bloody man but the one who camouflaged himself among the leaves and branches..omg when he suddenly stepped out he really gave me a fright!

and i got to see flying foxes at last!!
wow.
they look like giant bats (or vampire), hanging upside down, purple eyed and their wings folded and there're lil fruit bats fluttering around.

i hope dear dear enjoyed his day~

haiz.
supposed to take off bricks one by one.
but all i did today was read 3 readings for my essay.
am physically and mentally tired.

dun even feel like practising my organ today.
as the day approaches, i'll start to grow more depressed.
the interests i had of yesterday had died down today.

thanks frankie for plaguing you with such a long story of my stuff.
ya ya and you'll always say u'll be involved in my life somehow.
but you're stuck in australia!!

mood:

after this week, i've gotta do lotsa writing..ahhHHhhhhHHH!
*running away* too lazy to even click the mouse to get sources and citations.
or even have ideas flowing through my head.

i was wondering whether my essays in time will end up as boring as the ones in our reading packs, then i'll have to liven it up to make it reader friendly.
BUT the sociological part of me kicks in & a small little voice whined, "so u mean now we have to entertain the masses even when it comes to academic work?!what a society to live in...having to appeal to everyone else."

maybe that's why our readings are so boring after all.
they're supposed to make a point, not to serve your purpose of delightful bedtime stories.

Ok. shall stop that.
anyways, instead of mass media lecture ytd, it became a sg film lecture.
our lecturer invited young budding talent Boo Junfeng who had recently gained recognition for the short films he make (even had a chance to go to Pusan for his upcoming 1st feature film, 'Sandcastle')

my lecturer scared him off a lil when he did the intro about him (apparently he showed us a file of newspaper clippings on Junfeng) omg like some stalker lol.

we watched all of his films (wow! no lecture!)
i must say, they're rather coOl (enjoyed every single one especially Family Portrait & Katong Fugue)
most of his stuff touch on family, human rights & sexuality.

then my tutor had to scare him further by asking a question so chim that if u dun take SC2214, u'll think he's frm Mars.

all of these make him sound like a little boy.
well he was the boy next door kind of package lol.
quite cute actually, soft spoken & shy.

back to myself.
help help help.

we got further details of our new media curation project.
omg. it's interesting but worse than an essay.
had no idea how to, where to start (so will postpone it till the next lecture).

i need sleep.
yes SLEEP. shai looks scary in the photo lol.
on our way to IMM~

and i simply can't bloody wait to start on my food term essay but my tutor won't reply me ARGH.
i only have like 3 weeks left to complete (+ there's film ppt, film filming & editting...not to mention my research essay which will be due perhaps 1 or 2 weeks after my food deadline).

this is so horrible.
and it's not nice to pester your tutor when she's busy too.
i just simply wanna noe whether my question's alright.

apart from that, i'm pretty vexed about the filming thing because of its unsuitable time & i have to skip music class.
and my music exam is 19nov..zZZZZZZzzzzZZZZ.
i rmb-ed i was fretting over whether i shld take the exam...i was super pissed our teacher told us the deadline was end of tt day 6pm omg.
like how am i supposed to make a decision within 3 hours?!

and i did anyway.
because my mum told me to go, pass or fail because it's an experience.
and i'm going with like 20% confidence and because my mum gave me the assurance (after 13 yrs of music, i no longer feel the passion but commitment & perseverance..akin to a r/s)
altho i'm trying my best now to up that % level.
stressed about that but she's right in saying at least i noe how it felt like.

the only time i didn't feel jittery was when i sat infront of the flyer sup (which came to be thirul)..the other times there're butterflies in my stomach until i felt like it'll explode.

now its quite useless saying all this.
and i dowan 2 drag on either.

mood:

Ronald brought me out to eat today~!
He didn't complain a bit (usually he'll make a fuss) & i was being princessy self.

Here's what we ate:

I didn't take pictures (altho dey're seriously photogenic) becos i dowan 2 cause another embarrassment hehx.
It seems that Shin Kushiya is very popular with the ang mohs~
they take up like 30% of the restaurant~

The sashimi was Ok.
BUT i love the white fish (i have a feeling it's swordfish hEex.) & of course sweet prawn~

We tried their charcoal grilled set.
oh wowwwww...everything was good except the rice (with miso seasoning), hated it cos it's too bland for me.

i didn't really like the cha sOba either (it's not that bad but seriously it's quite hard to find good soba)
preferred sushi tei's but the charcoal grilled stuff made up quite a bit.

Ratings: 7/10 i'll go back for the charcoal grilllll (kushiyaki)...

he said happy birthday to me a zillion times (which altho it came to an 'uh' from me, it was nevertheless sweet =P).
and he had to buy 4D for my bdae -_-'''

most embarrassing but laughable thing was he sang nursery songs in front of Starbucks & clapped loudly. OMG. and he sang them wrong.

thanks for everyone who wished me "Happy Birthday"!!!

i'm not getting fat. the face's just puffy that's all.

mood:

feels like i haven blogged for a week.
maybe this week dragged like forever.
it always happens when your day is approaching nearer lol.

was so stressed up over R's present (even had a real nightmare after buying them).
am glad it's over (and how easy it was actually when you actually set your heart on shopping with a target).
and vivocity has got almost everything~~

it's quite a bit of $$ but i didn't feel the ache
i guess that's cos dey're useful stuff so they served the purpose~
and i can't just shut up about the things i buy.

been getting more sleepy these days.
and now i've nursed an ulcer...
i realized i hadn't eaten yong tau foo this week (which is quite a feat lOl.)
and i love stir fried tang hoon dish!!!!

mood:

yucks. yucks. yucks.
this is so horrible a feeling.
i detest myself for being in 2 worlds.
like a hypocrite.
i hate hypocrites.

quite a few times i wanted to scream.
but i didn't and i couldn't.
like it will help much.
it didn't and it won't.

i wish i can mean the things i say.
but it's hard when you're going 2 regret the next moments.
i wish this feeling will just go away
although it keep recurring and it makes my mood go bad.
and then it'll come back again.

sometimes i wish i can mean the things i say.
i even have to give myself warnings.
i dun like being in 2 worlds.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

thanks for being there for me.

mood: this is how i look when i ate the beef, the oyster & the ginseng chicken soup.

yes even in a high class restaurant, i do all these!
Crystal Jade Korean Ginseng Chicken & BBQ

Bird's eye view of our korean side dishes~

Our BBQ ingredients: beef, beef rib, pork collar & chicken

yay did our own BBQ.
did lotsa BBQ these few mths...the most recent one was Seoul Garden but OMG OMG OMG *screams* this BBQ is freaking freaky nicee...love the seasoning!!!
Ratings: 9/10 minus 1 mark cos the meat gets charred fast.
Ordred the extra oyster..decided not to spoil the oyster so asked the chef to BBQ for us. OMG OMG *screams again*
Ratings: 9.5/10 - 0.5 mark cos too lil pieces lOlx.

My portion of Bibimbap
Basically the ingredients are the usual korean side dishes plus a raw egg + meat (this one is beef) and then you mix it up like rojak. Delightful~~
Ratings: 8.5/10

Boiled pork with cabbage & Kimchi.
Ratings: 8/10 i prefer the raw veg they use instead of cooked cabbage but the pork is tenderlicious~


And this is what i've been dying to try~~
Korean Ginseng Chicken Soup. Chicken is soft & tender...soup is...*faints* very very savoury (not MSG lar)
Ratings: 9.5/10

It is so worth it!

was glad i had this sumptuous meal after a rough day & tired morning.
in fact it was the only thing i looked forward to this whole weekend~

frankie quickly come back.
we still have to sing kbOx & you're supposed to whip up a nice meal.

i have quite a few things to say.
but i realized i have nothing left to write.
or at least it's in invisible ink.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

i'm hungry.
but i dun feel like eating.

i'm tired.
but i dun feel like sleeping.

now zhiyang calls me a weird girl.

it sounds a little suicidal.
but i never thought of committing suicide.
now this is weird.
even the word 'weird' when spelt too many times in ur head ends up with weird spelling too.

mood:

walked ALOT today.
never did so much walking in my life
but great that the weather was coOl!

visited the Biennale's Marina Central Promontory Site.
it was the place i wanted 2 visit out of all the locations & it's free!
hmmm...quite coOl but was a lil disappointed (cos i expected more exciting stuff)

some pictures:


wow. i didn't know containers can be stacked like this. requires alot of work and effort.
Backdrop: Alfredo & Isabel Aquilizan's Flight
Anthony McCall's Between You and I.
when u walk closer to the light, it feel as if an invisible wall separates you from the other side~
Entrance to Hans Op de Beeck's Location (6).
Excellent entrance but that's some spastic kid.
Inside Location (6), 18 metre long sculpture.
it'll be really coOl if location (6) isn't a viewing gallery but where one can walk into the 'snow'~
was quite disappointed with this until when we left the the place, i realized our shadows (effects of the mirror) are casted on the 'scenery outside' like ghostly figures~

Do you see the Singapore Flyer? lolx.
OMG. Ying the juggler. doing on him for my film project 'Singapore Gaga'.
Spotted him inside Bugis Junction.
My latest addition!
hEex.
thank you thank you thank you! Really like it ( & stop comparing the size of the stones...it must look elegant~)

and i think i'm slowly finding back my mojo to shop~

mood: +

finally.i bought it.
and im glad i have a holiday tml!
altho now i'm freaking tired dunno why..partly cos my tummy is in sleep mode.
and my projs are still there, my assignment is still there haha.

wanted to watch "Painted Skin" but the time slot for the evening was almost all sold out! argh.
we went to eat Seoul Garden yayssss.
i had a better experience this time cos i liked the taste of the cuttlefish & shitake mushroom & the cockles & the prawns (becos i din hav 2 peel hehe)
i wish dey hav more varieties of the BBQ stuff..and yes their char siew chicken is still as bad as last time ack.

i'm shall eat Thai Express tml.
i realize i need more and more appetitizing food to tickle my tastebuds.
haven been food crazy lately.

more about food:
Friday gonna do a cooking assignment with my project mates
Sunday going to eat out with my family for my bdae dinner~!
seriously can't wait for that lOlx.

some pictures from my hp (i have alot of random pics gahh.)

took this last week LOL.
he said to censor his personal particulars so i did~
realize both the hairstyles are almost the same HAHA.
and the ez link one looks like the photo u see in Straits Times: the murderer's accomplice sort of picture LOL.

Before we started on our food, check out the earnest face.

after everything's done (yes VERY ugly sight...we're ugly customers).
unfortunately these are candid shots cos he always posed to smile AFTER i took the pictures -_-'''
