PLUS charlie wants to have events comns meeting on sat at dunno what time, plus i still have my tuition over the weekend. and tmr evening two meetings clash. events comn meeting and VNC meeting. going for the VNC one cos it was preplanned long long time ago, and we meet twice a month mah. yeaps. i sound busy huh. a little la. but not extremely busy. hee.
had a three hour break just now, but it was put to good use when i accompanied xin to national eye centre for her appt there in the afternoon.. we dropped by PS for lunch, had delicious indo grilled chicken at the food court [its really damn nice! like "seriously"..] and then passed by new campus while we rocked down to outram on 190. was talking about school and people and started gossipping.. hee. havent found a gossip partner in smu yet [unlike back in hc i had wh to entertain me grin] but think i might have found one in xin (:
ahhh this week is study week. then i can play and play and play! (: during cny.
are we meeting at yy's place on nian chu er? joycie! bring sotsot. butbut.. how long are we staying? cos i think i still have to go bai nian as well.. mm see how see how you guys msg me kk?
i dint manage to do vday shopping yesterday. my vday shopping skills are kinda rusty. so i gotta do them soon. thinking earrings would make good vday pressies for some people (: just need to think of what kinda earrings suit them better. hee.
me and kailyn went madd yesterday. bought 4cds from music junction yesterday. santana, creed, chicago soundtrack and renee olstead new jazz album. oh wow her voice is damn power and she's only 15 years old! the next young thing in jazz (: but i was looking for buble's new album yesterday actually. and i bought renee olstead instead. AND i still want buble de. well i still buy cds, just that i do VERY SELECTIVE purchases. or cheap and well worth ones. hee.
tmr is no school day. mug mug mug mug mug MA. then go for meeting at ncss at ghim moh. where should i study. the usual place or try somewhere near ghim moh which is near ncss? hmmm. i think and think and think. think think think. should i go visit the med people tmr? [TEO WEI NA. STUDY MA. STOP THINKING OF VISITING FRIENDS.] AHH. my inner voice is talking to me. im CRAPPING!
cos i cant wait for finance to be OVER.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
maybe i should get a nice notebook for roo for vday. hey TAN HUIRU! what you want?

whee.
if you wanna see how me and my sister are alike [or not alike], click on simna under links. yeaps thats my sista's blog. by this i mean, she's my sibling, family sibling with proper blood relations. she's simna teo wei shan, part of the boon lay teo family, part of the bukit panjang ang family, and part of the wei cousins in boon lay. and part of a nutty school in commonwealth which jst shifted there temporarily.
yeaps thats my sis for you.
a special dedication to her (:
she can be real sweet at times, but she can be so darn annoying at times as well. like, during the times when i was down last year, she tagged on my taggy as anon and made my day [when she's blur enough not to realise i could tell who tagged by checking the ip addresses. how cute. grin.]
but at the same time she can give me her "look" and diao me the entire day. sounds a little like me too. muahaha.
in any case, do check out her blog [for what i wonder, but to see teo nana's sister's blog. grin.] and make the counter no go up. she thrives on that. wahahaha.
oh but, she's still my sister after all. whee (:


there's only the two of us at home now. mummy and daddy out with relatives cos they treating them to dinner as they zhong 4D (: me and sis got 50 bucks each cos mummy and daddy zhong bu duo. then sis was saying that they could have zhong tonight also, cos auntie called just now, but my sis picked up the phone call. i was curled up in bed reading.
i havent done any work today! been out since this morning for tuition. did 6 whole hours of digestive system [lower sec]. ahhhh. but my mummy is quite smart. she knows i thrive to stay out of home constantly. not that i dont like staying at home, but i like going out, be it by myself or with friends. hence thats why she allowed me to go give tuition, to take up my time so that i wont whine constantly not being able to go out and at the same time, earn money (: and teach too (: grin. she's so smart. although at times i do wanna snap at her. but she's so sweet to me too.
my daddy ah, always in the background de.
all of them are always there for me.

hey why am i blogging like my sister today?!?!
full of weird sentences and weird singlish.
maybe cos i was surfing thru my hss students blogs just now and they all blog like that.
ahhhhh. help.

urgh.
im super frustrated with my home internet connection. apparently for no reason i cant access alot of websites from my home connection, especially websites like yahoo and blogger. but i can still access the intranet thankfully. and you should know how im accessing blogger now. shhhh. ;)
grin.
events comn busy planning for vday now. (:
which means vday is coming soon! in about half a months time, which also means, time to go shopping for pressies! i dint do vday shopping last year, but i shall do them this year :) for close friends, new mates in sch, and of course my dearest mei.
i shall go vday shopping on sunday.
used to remember how we all used to go broke when vday drew near.
remember the day ruoling and venus came to sch like santa clauses with many many boxes, cos they baked brownies for the class and canoe people..
remember the day during physics lecture some teacher told us to put our pressies away before she grew jealous and took away our pressies.
remember the day where we would wait impatiently for our angels and mortals to give us pressie.
remember the day when wenhui and yisheng went around giving roses in buckets cos they bought them in bulk and i got two roses from them (:
remember the day when no one is in the mood to study and busy exchanging pressies (:
its time to repeat the tradition! pressie buying time! kaykay, maybe small little ones.
then. then. i wonder how i can pass them to the class people. then the smu friends, i have a looong day on monday which is vday. plus gonna be busy with setting up vday celebrations in school (: had such a fun morning meeting today when debbie went a little hysterical while we were discussing the plans. and damn funny to see me elaine laurene and fir cheonging AS homework over a laptop and 4 pieces of worksheet in the SA room. wahahaha.

damn pissed that my student dua-ed me today.
like, wah i brought the heavy assessment books to school lor.
then after class wanted to meet tim for dinner at jp.
but ultimately he was damn tired and i had alot of work [still have in fact] to do, hence we decided to give it a miss.



all boundaries to love are very blured.
can someone tell me the definition of a date?
seems like everyone has different ideas of what a date is.
and i would like to know exactly what it is.
and please dont tell me the definition of a date is the day month year thingy.
cos i dont mean that.
yeaps.

sometimes i should really think before i act.
and not regret after my actions.
that can get me into quite alot of troubles.
seriously.
oh wells.
whats done been done.
sorry.



the scars of an old r/s doesnt fade away that quickly.
i thought i wasnt bothered by it anymore.
until recently.
just yesterday when i was bugged by it again.
not in the bad way.
but it kinda made me reflect, if i was ready to go into another one soon.
i guess i know the answer myself.
and im glad im thinking properly now.
for once, my thinking has brought me some sense.
at the same time i dont want the scars to haunt me forever.
just give me some time. to think.

whee today was super fun (:
hahaha. sometimes a long 5 hour break can be put to good use like today~
we girls went shopping! according to fir, us four turned bimbo for the next 5 hours after biz law. muahaha. well at least elaine got her black top [which was within budget and a halter as well ;) ] and we had fun in town (: except for the fact that i had to lug my laptop around which was damn heavy. i shall not bring my laptop next wednesday if we're gonna watch alfie at PS (: grin. it would be nice if we can get a whole group of people to go watch movie together. say half the class or sth? grin. those who have biz law in the morning and as in the afternoon la. wahahaha.
today's shopping was damn fun. more like try on shopping only cos we are all broke and yea, we just picked some weird funky stuff and tried them on.. the dresses that gina tried on were niceee, but a tad big for her.. then got elaine's curtains! the red ones, but it looked nice on her.. there's a nice white spag top at zara, quite cheap de.. but i dint have enough money! or else i could have just bought it. grin.
walked about abit more, gina got her phone fixed at the same time.. twas fun today.. bumming around in town.
reached back school with sufficient time to look for jason jinx kaili and sandy to bug them.. muahaha. (: then we all went off for as together. AND we dint pay attention. oops.
nono my lappie wasnt on. but the four of us [i.e. kaili sandy me and elaine] were playing bingo and i bingo-ed twice! grin. then me and elaine wanted to play battleship but no time. muahaha. we were damn sneaky sia. muahaha.
today was fun fun fun (:
hopefully we can catch alfie next wed (: wheeeeeeeeeeeeee! hahahahaha.

its super amusing to see a huge bar of cadbury hazelnut choc being passed from one section of the seminar room to the other during biz law class right in front of prof's eyes.
and he dint even bat an eyelid!
and the choc is coming back.

huge chunk of cadbury courtesy of anna (:
thanks girl!
helped to keep me awake in class (:
im snacking on choc this morning. blearh.
koped jason's meiji choc just now too.
and im trying to lose weight.
hem. ahhh forget it.

jialing elaine me and charlene! (: 

eurithymix [did i spell correctly? grin.] 

sly doing the finger thing ;) 

sly's an jing 

sly and taufik the brudders! 

taufik being interviewed :) 

superstitious (: 

taufik "me and mrs jones" 

oh wow oh wow!
the patrons day programme line up was damn happening and fun! (:
wheee im still on a high.. somebody pull me down now!!
taufik came to smu!! whee and i saw him in person, albeit a little far away. hee.
his voice is soooo wonderful (: sly aint that bad la [but taufik better!]
wahhhh the entire upperquad in the tentage was like a party, with everybody moving to the beats of the bands lined up to entertain us (:
nicole and jess doing the dance were soooo sexy (: muahaha and we dint shout for nicole in the end.
though we shouted for fir though [wonder if you heard me and elaine, fir] and for a moment we thought it wasnt fir after shouting cos jialing raised a false alarm. wahahaha.
saw a lot of unfamilar faces though [yes i know its open to public and i was trying to convince fishball to come down yest with kw. grin. be a big lightbulb in their date. grin.] and some families came along. which wasnt too good cos free beer was flowing around [tiger beer was a sponsor i think, but the beer was super watered down. dilute beer. joycie, you dint miss out on the free beer, cos it wasnt that nice.] in fact everyone was drinking the free beer like it was plain water. cos we had nothing else to drink la and lazy to go to water cooler.
wheeee!
plenty of sly and taufik pictures! even though i was standing damn far away. all thanks to gary who did me a wonderfully big favour by helping me take the pictures cos he's much taller than me. thankew so much dude! *grin* everyone's camera was out la, in the air trying to take as many pictures as possible. each of them sang three songs, and they sang their typical songs. (: me and mrs jones melted me heart again!
zaoed after they finished singing, cos it was clubbing time! they got someone from zouk i think. had enough through the band songs previously le, yeaps and then me and yuan went home together (:
so so so so super fun!
and we were gossipping about the couples who were going around. all the couples were out in full force! had a fun time catching out who was with who. muahahaha.

so so so so so so so so so super fun!
im still so high (:
i love smu! muahahha.
[will post pictures asap when i can. there are plenty of taufik's pictures! and sly's too. grin.]

its nice to see the s33 blogs growing.
one more added.
but sad to say, thats the last s33 class we have to our legacy.
hey wendy! you 03s33 de! why no class blog?
muahahahaha.
i like bullying my juniors.
aint that right roo? (:

todays patrons day! (:
grin. and taufik is coming to sch later! (: whee!
grin. at gsr now, bidding my time. surprised that no one has chased us out yet. so far. muahaha. and me and jialing went to walk about upper quad just now. nothing much lei, in fact it looks rather small. but there's already quite alot of people walking around. painting murals, queueing up for free beer and free [whatelseah?]. saw yuan and jialong queueing. checked out the samsung roadshow in school. cheat me de lor. its the same as any hello shop outside. and i still maintain that e630c is niceee, despite what jia is saying. grin. walked about. saw that the tentage is quite small. and nicole was telling us we should be there by bout 6 cos she's gonna seduce the nation's president SR Nathan there and then. grin.
sly is supposed to sing first followed by taufik. rumours are going around saying that they are paid per song $5000. wah thats alot. which led to alot of jokes claiming why not get us students to sing instead! grin.
was discussing MA project just now, damn funny and kok la. esp our uniforms. grin. lets make polo tee shirts! whee! muahaha. 5 girls put together is a total riot. which makes it all the more fun (:
thankfully tmr no school. but got meeting at 645 in the evening. can make do with that la. muahaha. think i blog somemore i'll go more highhhh. cos taufik is here! grin.
my camera is ready, so am i. just make sure no one block my view later. grin.
i know im grinning alot. grin grin grin grin grin.

just checked 02s33's class blog and surprised to see a great grand junior's tag [minghan i think] asking us to support their class blog which is up! in less than 3 weeks. like wow im impressed (: and honoured to see them link us as well. grin. hey roo! your juniors seem nice. muahaha. but im still not going for stj. no one in my class going la. you enjoy youself if you're going kk? grin. *hugs*

had quite a weird day today.
weird as in, i did sth different.
actually baked brownies in the afternoon. from scratch. something i never did before. muahahaha. and my arms nearly died from whipping manually [yea you heard me right.]. suan ahh.
it tastes alright actually, for my first try. not so sweet brownies. my mum and dad love them cos it aint sweet [i hope they love it cos it tastes good and not cos im their daughter ;) ] my sis insists its good [but before the final product came out, she was asking me if she would kena food poisoning from eating my brownies. how nice. dots.]
because my house had no history of baking from scratch, i had to go baking-shopping after tuition this morning. and i bought everything required. right down to the weighing scale. and i splurged almost 40 bucks on everything, including the materials. plus i just bought assessment books for my tutees also, and i spent $40 on those. so in total, by leaving the house today, i spent nearly 90 bucks. ouch, my pocket hurts. not that i wont get my $40 on assessment books back, but im running low on cash. AND i havent been spending alot lately. maybe on textbooks [kay thats quite alot] and what else i cant remember. i need an injection of cash. feb coming soon. allowance coming soon. hongbaos coming soon. tuition income coming soon for one. whee! then got fresh inject of money. and maybe i will get a new phone.
been thinking of getting a new phone for ages. and nothing seemed to have caught my eye yet. i most definitely want a nokia phone. though the new samsung E630C looks VERY VERY tempting. wahhhh.
tmr is taufik-in-smu day.
wonder if i can last from 1145 to 8pm in school mugging. thought of not bring my laptop but i dont think i can survive 8 hours without a laptop. and tmr's gonna be happening! so many things happening in school cos its patrons day! whee! oh! non smu folks are invited to gatecrash the performance in the evening. (: fishball are you still up for coming smu after lessons at 5? grin. sms me kk? [think more like i'll sms her to ask later. grin.]






sometimes, i think girls are better off single.
guys are just UNDEPENDABLE.

kay.
i've decided and decided to try for events sub comn. laurene emailed the people who signed up today and looking at the list, im surprised to see so many familar names (:
annaaa!! laurene told me yest you signed up too! (: plus people like baoling, ivan, wang jing, wei seng, ridz, wen fang. thats 7 of them. a total of 15 people signed up for it. tues evening is our first meeting. looks like i gotta go sch on a non sch day again. at 645pm in the evening somemore. a little sians yes, but it does look as though i dont have a choice do i?
kk shant complain. now im taking one small step.
i seem to be taking alot of small steps recently.
trying out for events sub comn, volunteering to organise asoc retreat and agreeing to be in orientation main comn. hopefully i can still cope with studies and tuition considering the last two events are gonna be in the hols. as in, busy during the hols. considering yep if it comes along too. and setting aside time to tour europe with poppop and sotsot and jun [what's jun's porcupine name?] (: i know, i have time (:

such a tiring day today.
tiring mentally.
christina lee is nuts [shh dont quote me]. a creative thinking individual project on experimentation [yes think chem and physics and bio. that was what i was thinking. prove that gravity is acting downwards at 9.81 ms-2.]. which constitutes 40%. siaos! madness. helpppp. i need ideas. i need creativity. i fear CT lessons. dont you all agree with me?
MA workshop was worse. the min prof khoo stepped in, i knew i was in for a deep slumber. its cos i dont know the answers, hence i attend the workshop. stop trying to squeeze answers out of me when my brain juice is dry dry and dry! argh. twenty minutes into MA workshop and i wanted to zao out of it already. yawn.
oh.
and one last thing.
stop talking about smu fee hike!
im darn irritated by the ignorant ones.
and darn irritated by school people who are trying to raise tidal waves [yes i mean it almost literally] over this issue when its a fact already. stop the stupid emails where you argue over why the school is doing us an injustice by increasing it to 15%. bu shuang right, change school la. talk so much kok, what kind of action are you doing? what kind of action are you trying to prove? that smu students are people who cant let go and insist on nitty gritty details like "leftover buffet food is part of waste of our fee hike"?!? oh puhlease get a life man.
and i cant believe the initiator is our bgs TA.
yea THAT TA. i am irritatingly amused. i know some people may have difficulties in paying this extra hike, but you think they are the ones complaining like shit and airing their views over the school network and internet? no. simply no. they would be the ones thinking of ways to cover this extra hike. they wont be making alot of noise and waiting for people to come save them. we are a smarter lot than such assholes who create incessant noice and clog up my email add.
AND. nus ntu people. stop laughing. stop smiling irritatingly and say "oh wow 15% hike lei. thankfully we only 5%". like SHUT UP. you are going autonomous next year. you will feel the added burden when you go autonomous. max is 10% increase, but its sufficient to make you complain too. so stop the smiling backstabbing. cos your turn is up next.
so there.
ahh im so pissed now.

should i try for SA sub comn?
should i? should i?
i dont know which one to choose.
should i join?
think think think.
how.
someone tell me.

smu fees hike by 15%. huge increase aint it.
attended dialogue session with dean and others, and was surprised to see gary and second in there as well. must have been dragged down by alvan, like me and elaine [though we were down on accounts of wanrong]. sat thru the whole dialogue session and found it interesting in fact, considering prof pang was talking to such a small group of people. prolly only 10 odd students were there. yeah. to hear more about the hike in school fees. its $6500 now. the sch's reasons for increasing the fees sounded fairly logical and reasonable. just that the hike is kinda steep and sudden. i dint see it coming like now, but i knew it was gonna hit us sooner or later.
prof pang actually knows my name. and who i am. *faints*
i was seriously shocked. like really. heh. known as the one who helps out in asoc. interesting.

then lu ming was talking to me and elaine regarding orientation, being in the committee and all. and when we finished the discussion [and kindly offered our help for retreart], we were about to pack and go. till this young lady approached us for "help" in doing an interview of sorts. the three of us eyed her warily till she said she was from CNA. and elaine asked if it was a written interview, and she said no, we'll be on camera! muahahaha. natural course of action: REJECT! like duh. i dont wanna see myself on tv talking about the fees hike! though lu ming was commenting that we're actually the best people to be interviewed considering we just came out of a dialogue with our acct dean and others. we burst out laughing at that thought. muahahaha.

went over to acct blk to meet yixin sara kelv and anna for CT discussion. nailed down the details of our game to be played during CT session and hopefully the game will be interesting and fun (: hey kelvin! found the final taboo yet? grin.
left slightly earlier than the three of them [anna and elaine left before me] to meet michelle at SBG visitor centre. took me no time to find the entrance at cluny road. (:
then had meeting at henderson cc again.

whee. all in all.
nice day.
not too shiong, but not slack either. grin.

tmr is a non school day! (: whee. finally i have one whole day doing nothing.
not exactly.
for instance i have CT meeting in school at 415pm. gotta rush down to henderson by 7pm.
PLUS.
may be going for a dialogue session at 2 plus, with our dean. alvan emailed to ask me and elaine at first. and then we rejected him. then elaine's senior asked her if she could go for it. and we relented. hence elaine told her senior that if they really cannot find other people, then we would go and do a favour for our seniors. cos rightfully all years should be represented and i dont think they can find any year ones so far.
i mean, look at it logically. would you want to go for a dialogue session?
mm personally im not interested. but. i dont mind la. since i gotta go back to school anyway.
and im not surprised if we end up going for the dialogue. like who else would wanna go?
see we're nice people. grin.
elaine is nice. so am i.
hence we are nice people. [deductive argument.]

so sians now. waiting for break.
none of us three are doing anything related to finance.
xin is reading biz law. and jia is using the laptop. definitely not for finance purposes.
and later we have to follow prof back to his office just to get our finance calculators.
and prof is talking about ln and e now. wow we're doing maths!
but frankly finance to us now, is alot like maths. give us the eqn and we plug the numbers in to get our final answer. if he had sent us our powerpoint or put it up in connect, me and jia would be working on our new assignment liao lor. instead he dint send. sians.
dint open my laptop today during MA and i surprised myself by paying utmost attention and understanding process costing [without reading my notes or textbook before the class]. im shocked.
maybe. just maybe. i dont have to bring laptop on monday.
hey wait. i forgot all about finance. nay i need my laptop. even on wed. even when i dont touch my laptop in bizlaw and AS. i need it to pass time during the long break.
im kinda impressed by my self control this term. like seriously.
maybe the feel of playing with my lappie in class has faded anyway.
i mean, usually theres nothing much to do with my lappie half the time. and not many people are online on msn cept for the smu people. whom we entertain either via msn or in class. hence.
yea you get my point.
the seniors in the finance class seem to be all paying attention. scary.
i should do sth useful in this class.
like xin, who's reading biz law.
maybe i should read finance. since i brought the text book today.
mm.
shall go ponder on it.

boy oh boy.
who could have missed tonight's match?
wonderful (:
congrats lions! you guys have performed exceeding expectations!
an overall 5-2 scoreline. perfecto (:
for those who missed the match tonight, shame on you. *sticks tongue out* grin.
tune in to class 95 for praises [from fd] and slamming [from glenn]. not sure where rod would stand though.
muahaha.
this week, american idol starts.
whoowhee! muahaha.

ooh wow. think i just got dragged into organising of orientation 05 for the freshies this year. elaine! how are we gonna be facils in that case? ahh. hahaha. i wanna be both. may i? grin. paiseh just read alvan's mail la. muahaha. maybe i can still be a facil. i hope. but it will be fun to organise. imagine organising sth like pow wow! whee! so happy (: and lucky to have a senior so actively invovled in asoc and who desperately needs manpower to help him out in stuff for asoc. whee!
i havent been attending rotaract stuff. i thought i wasnt in. until benjamin emailed the entire rotaract club today and im in the mailing list. im kinda blur. am i in, or am i out? i havent attended any single meeting yet! hmm. this is very very very weird.
suddenly i feel like joining alot of stuff and activities happening in school. but inertia is stopping me. cos i've been so slack all along! i need someone to pull me up and get me going. helppp.
but yea, when i start participating, its a good sign dont worry.
i might be finding my true self back again.
slowly. whoo whee (:

had MA makeup class today. and we were self entertaining ourselves with elaine's singlish book! damn funny la. im pretty sure all of us tell the taxi uncle "uncle, in front turn left/right" or "uncle just go straight" when we take the cab. RIGHT? thats so bloody singlish and funny! the entire two rows were laughing our heads off as jialing read them off one by one. even prof looked amused by us. muahaha. and prof was moving like a bullet train today. help! i couldnt quite catch up but i kinda understood his lesson. i should really not play with my lappie in class. like seriously. i shouldnt bring my lappie. but but. but but.
kk im not being serious.
cos im kinda high? heh.
we all headed to town together, all meeting different people.

me met fishball and gab for dinner (:
she treated us to jacks place [only cos i had a sudden craving for it and bugged her yesterday! ahh so paiseh *redfaced*] near the hello shop there after we lingered around wisma trying to look for a non existant jacks place that seemed to have moved. hum. it was there last june when him and i were celebrating our birthdays together! ahhh. pissed. not really la, just insistent and ignorant. muahaha.
had a candlelit dinner as a threesome [how weird huh. heheheh] and talked quite a bit. gab went down memory lane and talked about yt. kinda regret getting him to talk about her, cos he was in a stony mood after that. for dunno what reason. so sorry dude. ):
but had a nice time with them, talking and playing the fool. hee.

and im having marathon tuition tmr from 10 to 6pm. fine la. i have a two hour break in between.
and im supposed to be doing my finance homework now. im doing w/o understanding, cos its simply plugging in of equations and getting the answers by the mathetical way. and mid term is coming real soon. blearh.
and there's tiger cup tmr!
go lions! [kk i will think that the lions will lose, cos whenever i think they win, they will lose. hence i think they will lose. understand me? think AS. grin. this is deductive. hahahaha.]
i think im going mad. deliriously happy and mad.
if school can remain like this.
hopefully it will (:
with nice nice people [you guys know who you are cos you're all reading my blog (: ] and fun-boring lessons.
im about to say "i love smu" but it stopped at the tip of my tongue.
cos i know, albeit the fun and nice times i have in school, i still dont like some types of people i see in there. maybe i may come to love it, but it still has a long time to go.
but right now, at this point in time, i dont regret being here, with all of them and in smu (:

my prof is droning on and on and on.
he's a nice chap, just that right after lunch, my brain lulls into after lunch syndrome mode. which results in me opening my laptop and going online. though i switch to his lessons occasionally and now they are talking about unions and the govt. pretty interesting. but im still not quite paying attention. more interested in my suan mei and the piece of paper we're rotating round to choose our project topics.

nowadays not much time to come online and blog. even when i come online i may not be in the mood to blog. mm. oh wells.
my weekend is burnt. or rather, well spent.
sat: make up MA class from 145 to 5. then dinner at causeway pt with fishball and gab.
sun: tuition from 10 to 6 cos i shifted tuition because of makeup class on saturday morning.
plus i need time to study and read up on my topics. and do my homework.
been slacking after biz law project ended. to recharge in order to restart. fine im procrastinating. grin.
should pay attention now. gilbert tan is going through a case study.

*pays attention*
*attempts to pay attention*

he's talking about meeting the enemies in the midst of discussing stakeholders.
i cant wait for 3pm to come.
jason and yixin are "bickering" over msn. with xin using my lappie. so amusing. bickering like kids. muahaha.
now you can see how bored we all are.


im surprised by myself that im enjoying this term so much.
whee! hahahaha.
maybe its time for me to get involved in more school activities and things like CCAs. think about it first and join next sem. i'll think. but nothing here interests me so far yet.
though i was eyeing the SA sub comns. kept the email SA sent to ask. prolly check out more with fir first before deciding. since i promised alvan i'll help out with asoc convo and orientation. plus i wanna be a facil since fir was asking us yesterday during ct.
will think will think.
right now i cant wait for sch to be over.
in about a few minutes time.
whee!

biz law presentation is over! whee (:
enjoyed working with my biz law group [i.e. the ltb girls (:]
very drained after presentation which lasted for one hour odd. more like my mind couldnt take the mind boggling questions he posed. everybody were quite stunned by it, and prolly dint understand his point, hence a few nonsensical questions came out. particularly by someone who rephrased her questions again and again to get prof to answer her questions in all sorts of rephrased manner. shall not name who. grin. if you guys had listened carefully, y'all prolly know who im referring to. grin.

tired. may go and sleep later during the long break before AS.
going out to serene black canyon for lunch later with the group (:
tonight got amazing race! as usual. and its time to get back to reading and doing homework.
havent been able to read up on finance and MA before this presentation. was busy working with the report and the presentation. now its proper back to books.
maybe that explains why i dint blog for the past few days.
but i did sit in front of the comp trying to blog.
but decided that the outcome of the entry was so crappy, i decided not to in the end.
might have to get a casebook for biz law. sians. been spending so much money on texts.

ooh saw rudy lee yesterday, he looks alot better. like what venus described. he has more meat in him, he dyed his hair and he just looks better. BUT he doesnt look hot la. muahaha. venus thinks he looks hot. talked to him for a while at the busstop and he walked back to hc from serene while i was waiting for 157 to go home. so coincidental, meeting him there. he doesnt have any form class this year, his classes should be glad to dio him as chem tutor, cos he's good. just a little too cheem for my liking. BUT he helped me got an A for chem (:

feeling very comfy in my shirts and shorts and slippers now. as in really flipflops. i feel as though im half in camp. alot of barang barang [with my bag ad lappy] and in super casual wear. kept thinking last night that i had CT today and kept wondering if christina lee would allow flipflops. until it dawned upon me that im having AS and not CT today. mm. feeling a tad cold now cos i chose not to bring my jacket today. :(
should get back to class now. grin.
presentation is oveR! hence 35% of biz law is confirmed! damn. hehehe.

whee had a nice class outing today.
albeit there were almost last minute changes last night which resulted in me being royally pissed.
and im glad for such a wonderful friend in ruoling.
she knows me too well le. (:
last night, when i msged her, she told me to call her.
and let out my pissed off feelings cos she knew i was super pissed.
and i was so glad that somebody felt the way i felt.
and understood how i felt.

jc life may have been short and fast.
but im glad to have made strong friends during that period of time.
really glad.
may have been closer to some. not so close to the others.
but ultimately, i have a nice class. nice people.
and im glad for that.
knowing some may not treasure the rare class outings as much as i do.
i still treasure such meet ups alot.
i know most of them still see other often, being in nus and ntu.
and i would like to see them more often too.
but im glad for the chance to be able to know other people in a new environment in smu.
people like elaine yixin and many others in my class.
at the same time i still miss jc alot. miss the class. miss the hc people.
we're more people-friendly. more sincere. more nice. more wonderful.
sincere is the key word here.
and no wonder nj people are so similar to us, cos they behave like us too.
sincerity.


class lunch was at yong chye today.
ate the achingly-missed horfun. (: as usual, me and xinxin had dollops of green chilli.
and sijia remembered us green chilli freaks too (:
crapped and talked kok with them.
it felt as though i still spend time with them everyday of my life.
though xinxin was obviously more tired. and ruoling ate first cos she had hall soccer after that.
but people turned up. and we talked.
it felt as though we were eating together after school.
just that this time, we've all grown up. in one way or another.
wanted to go back hc after lunch.
lingered around the main gate and uncle cheong was staring at us from the pe block.
gave up notions of trying to climb the gates. and uncle cheong followed us from within the campus as we walked along the main road. he was staring at us. aiyah. if we really wanted to get into the school campus, we could have walked in from the tchs gate. bollocks to you. muahaha.
went down to venezia after that. met up with ruoling cos her match was postponed. ate ice cream. played cards. jy went shopping for food at cold storage. wilbur was indulging in his favourite hobby. venus was looking at us eating ice cream.
played cards. with the usual spirit and zest.
went abit crazy during the last game. venus bidded 4 clubs immediately. and i jumped to 5 clubs. and then she gave me the uh-oh look. and i knew it was a mistake. so i anyhow whacked for my partner. called 5 of spades for the heck of it. xinxin saw venus's face change. and started laughing manically. all of us were infected with her laughter and laughed non stop. till our sides ached. game went on. xinxin won in 3 suits, cos she had 3 aces. ahahaha. glad to see we're still as passionate about bridge as ever.
glad to see we can still indulge in times like this at ease.
happy that we got together and took photos!
these photos will be my screen saver on my lappie.
to accompany me throughout uni school life.
to remind me of the wonderful times we've had.
and not forget the wonderful friends i have.
sometimes its frustrating to know that some of them may not treasure the friendship as much as i do. but i know some do.
people like ruoling and xinxin.
with them and their support, its enough for me. for my love to them to be reciprocated. and appreciated. its enough for me to "try and organise a class outing" [hopefully after yesterdays saga]. again some time in the near future. with such friends, im happy with life (:

now you know why i miss jc life so much. so much.
love you guys, 02s33. (:

shit.
i can feel my health spiralling downwards.
i've sneezed umpteen times today, and my throat is dry like hell.
somebody save me from falling sick. blearh. :(
i dont wanna croak like a frog next week during biz law presentation. acks.
i will drink more water.
i promise. *crosses my fingers*

trying to get my as notes printed now.
wondering why prof put so many articles up for individual analysis.
spending alot of paper printing now.

had tuition just now.
popped to the library before going for tuition.
initally wanted to return books only.
but as usual i walked in to look see look see.
and exited the lib in less than 10 minutes.
with 3 books in my hands.
someone ought to slap my hands when i visit the library.
i should be cutting down on my reading but i cant stop myself.
acks.

groups all settled and us three are in three projects groups together.
whee (: grin. happy lark.
familar faces nice people (:
pretty happy for this sem's project grouping.
pretty happy for this sem's classes too where all of us are all together and being rowdy and noisy.
bet i'll miss everyone when this sem ends.
which is a long time later.
heh.



msned with him yesterday and he complimented me (:
thought he was suaning me with his usual greeting but he insisted he wasnt.
was pleasantly happy.
and grinning to myself. in bgs class.
thankfully i was at the back. (:

oh goodness.
im like dead -tired-.
block b is a killer. plus finance. and i havent touched my finance homework yet even though i bought the text yesterday.
havent been properly online to check my mail and blogread ever since monday.
maybe cos i went shopping and meeting on tuesday until late night and had a long day from 830 to 645 yesterday. oh wells. gotta get use to the really busy hectic schedule man. YAWN.
wanted to come online last night to discuss AS homework with elaine yixin and fir and whoever was online last night but was dead tired le. was staring at the AS worksheet while watching amazing race at the same time. oh wells. no matter how busy i am, i wont forego my tv programmes. amazing race and american idol 4 coming soon! whee (:


tuesday was a nice nice day (:
went shopping with kailyn at bugis and i settled my new year clothes. at least the da nian chu yi new year clothes. muahaha. fell in love with a nice orangey tube dress from the clothes publisher which was going for 20% sale and ended up paying about $63 for that dress cos it was orginally $79.90 (: so happy (: tralala. hehehe. then went off for VNC meeting in the evening at henderson which happens once a fortnight and the most amusing thing that happened during the meeting was aundre forgetting what we planned for the grand finale and so did i. until i asked desmond our chair and he reminded us. we left the room one by one to talk about it and when we finally came back, soon tien gave us a cute suspicious look and me and aundre keep bursting out into laughter. he la, OIC then started arrowing people to do his work for him ): blearh. now i gotta beautify his programs proposal by sat and send it to him asap so that he can send it to gary. oh and did i mention our committee is testerone packed? theres only me peiling and michelle in the group. hahaha.

yesterday was fun (:
though it was a long long day it was still very fun (:
biz law was interesting, so interesting such that i dint open my laptop at all and i actually listened for the whole 3 hour seminar and enjoyed what he was talking about (: and for once talked in class for the first time in the first lecture of the sem. maybe cos i was in a class with familar faces and it just felt comfortable talking in that class. with people like fir and jason talking nonstop, hahaha. may jason gets his bid for our biz law class (: grouped with my LTB girls for biz law project and we decided to volunteer ourselves for the first presentation. so i have a presentation next week. wonderful. hahaha. and i would have settled 35% of my biz law grade by tmr. oh wow. ahhhhh. we're mad i tell you. going to the jurong east lib later to look for the singapore law reports and meeting elaine back in school by 245. we're oh-so-mad.
went town with them during the 5 hour break and we had fun in town (: maybe cos we were doing biz law research at kino halfway through? muahaha. went back to sch for AS and met elaine on the way (: AS was super fun (: challenge the minds and the discussion was damn funny cos being once science students, we had a tendency to bring in physics and air resistance and whatsoever when we were discussing the blocks problem when the prof kept appealing to us to look solely at the speed and nothing else. which resulted in some people claiming that they are pro-physics and fir saying something along the lines of him thinking like galieo. hum. yea. well. i still aint quite buying the prof's reasoning though. unless i think only in terms of speed. blearh im blabbering. created a hell lotta noise when we were doing AS worksheet. discussion allowed mah, so fir and laurene promptly turned around and 8 [or was it more?] of us were busily discussing and arguing about the knights and knaves question. so amusing (: me yixin elaine jason wanted to form AS group together de, but the prof started allocating. may we be in the same group for BGS! (:
hitched a ride from yixin and her bf [who came to fetch her] to clementi and the two of them are so cute and funny (: they really match each other man (: we were yakking through out in the car and half the time not looking where we were going, which resultted in making her bf swerve through a few lanes in order to make a left/right turn. grin. and they wanted to turn into the bus interchange to drop me off!! hahahaha. oops. (: but. very very very nice couple (:
grins.

and thereafter, one week is gone, 14 more weeks to go.
and the cycle repeats itself all over again.
might not hear from me soon. might not.
so adios for now (:

today.
started school.
saw familar faces.
quite enjoyed myself.
even found time to play a few rounds of bridge in a gsr before finance class.
im pleased with myself that i actually paid attention during MA just now.
and my finance prof sounds like a hongkee.
it feels good to be back in school actually. even though my sch day ends at 645pm today.
and on wednesday. how sad. but i have 3 hours break today and 5 hours break on wednesday. ahhh sians. bad bad timetable. blearh.
im moving through finance class in a blur.
its quite stressful actually, when we're dealing with year twos who seem to know a hell lot more than we do, and the discussion bounces from one side of the room to the other and back again. so unlike my preassigned classes when most of the time we try to keep quiet by not making noise. muahaha. some of us are thinking of dropping. i've decided to cheong on, and see how i can make it in finance class. BUT the price of the text and the financial calculator is horribly ex. blearh. and i see year twos coming back from booklink with newly purchases texts. ahh.

oh wells.
so far good start to school today (:
and tmr is shopping day! (:

nice cold weather. brr.
was lucky that it only rained when i boarded the bus this morning.

went all the way to sembawang to meet gab and fishball [who was still sleeping when i called cos i dint see her at je mrt] to proceed on to thomson area for nice prata. yummy.
it was my brunch and boy was i hungry for food (:
the prata was really good, and yeah we ordered too much food. but at least this brunch was cheap. hahaha.
we should try the other prata place fishball went before and compare the next time rd.
and gab, good luck with apple! hahahaha.

school starts tmr.
meeting it with a little apprehension, hesistation and excitement.
apprehension because i dont really know what to expect even though i've been through one school term already.
hesistation because i dont know if i'll enjoy this term.
excitement because finally i have an aim in life again, and that is to study. hahaha.
as in, literally an aim to work towards.
hols has been great, especially the last three weeks of hols when i've been out everyday doing something at least. keeping myself occupied and meeting up with friends. which was nice.
the first two weeks were kinda.. *shrugs* i felt the exact same way when i was having that eight month long hols when i was working as a clerk at hillgrove. teaching was the most glorious time in 2004. cos i was doing something productive/. call me a workaholic or sth. i just like doing SOMETHING which is productive. be it organising, studying, working. just DOING SOMETHING instead of spending my time fruitlessly.
well at least i get to see some friends whom i dint see at all during the hols.
people like elaine yixin, my ltb group girls my mummy kaili sandy steph and the list goes on.
not that im super close to them but these are the people whom i can get along well with in school.
and hopefully be able to build stronger bonds with.
afterall, the first friends you make in uni are prolly gonna last you the entire uni life.
i think. and i hope.

to smu friends: i'll see you guys from tmr onwards!
to nus ntu friends: im glad i got to see you guys during the hols. if i dint get to see you [HINT HINT TO XINXIN] i'll make sure i see you sometime this month (:
to ns friends: life doesnt quite change much for you guys but yea, y'all have finished one year of NS, you have less than 1.5 years left. ENJOY (: to jy, congrats on your commissioning (:

guess thats all folks.
its time to get back to studies [hopefully i'll really study this time because i HAVE to.] and cut the playing to a minimum level. yeaps.
ooh btw, im not going back for campfire. but anyone up for CNY eve back at hc? tag me! (:
