I'm still not used to not being in the same class as my 3 goodie friends
Especially when me and Dilys went back home while Janice and ah Long went back school for Communication Skills 2 tutorial
Last semester we used to leave school together
Even when we go out to eat we will still go back school together
I don't like this feeling
Oh man...i feel so super sad now...
:'(

I feel so lost when i went into Communication Skills 2 tutorial
Usually i cant spot my seat when my 3 goodie friends were still in the same as me last semester
:'(

Hope everything goes well for me and my 3 goodie friends

i hate separations.

Today, Mr Yong, Mr Dillion Lee, My Terence Lou and Mr Eugene Lee gave us a big surprise
We met at 9am at Newton and they were there to pick us up
Me, Dilys, ah Long and Mr Dillion Lee went onto Mr Yong's car
Staffani, Swee Han and King went onto Mr Terence Lou's car
Eslyn, Jasmine and Jay went onto Mr Eugene Lee's car
They drove us to a petite restaurant (i forgot the name of the restaurant...haha) for breakfast
Because the hotel rooms were cheap and the place is only easily accessible...those people can come here 'play play' without being caught red-handed so easily
Haha...that's what ah Long said
Haha
As i was saying about the restaurant...it is quite small restaurant with this countryside feeling
The food was not bad la
I had scrambled eegs and ham
The portion was small but it was filling with the toast bread, tea and orange juice
Breakfast + chats + photo-takings = hearty breakfast =)
Mr Yong was saying that they wanted to bring us to Istana to eat but because Mr S R Nathan was not feeling well due to the haze...it was cancelled
YA RIGHT
HAHA!
They wanted to bring us around to see the hotel rooms but it was all fully booked so we didn't wait around
We get onto the car again and the lecturers brought us to somewhere again
These lecturers always keep us in suspension...
In Mr Yong's car...ah Long happened to took out a small scissors...must be his children's one...just nice Mr Yong came in and said, "Becareful not to touch one of the scissors. It's haunted."
Haha
Ah Long stunned
Me and Dilys started laughing

We had sight-seeing along the way
I happened to see one book
Must be his children's one too
And it all goes like this, "Look at the rabbits. I LOVE RABBITS." and with other farm animals like horses...etc...
Me and Dilys were like reading aloud
Haha
Mr Dillion Lee turned round and said, "I can't believe that you all took 'A' Levels."
Haha

We arrrived at a reservoir park (i forgot which reservoir also...heh...)
At first we thought that we were going to have a picnic with the food and drinks we bought
Until we saw Mr Yong taking out frisbees and ruby ball
The scenary there was so beautiful
Mr Yong said that the place is good for dating but has to be mindful of the closing time of the gates

I shouldn't wear heels today lah
Otherwise i can roll down the steep slope
HAHA
Not really roll down lah...but at least it's much more exciting than walking another way down where the slope is narrower

After we settle down we started to play games
First we played Dog-and-Bone
Next we played Monkey
Then we played some guessing games
HOHO
The lecturers were all prepared lah!
Haha

Time flies really fast when we were enjoying
We played with the lecturers for about 3 hours la
Just nice we are about to leave when it started to rain

Even though i didn't get to go down the slope
I get to climb back up
A bit scary though
Haha
I might just slipped and slide down face down on the grass
Haha
I can imagine that
HAHAHA!!!

The lecturers dropped us at Suntec and that's all for the day!
So me, Dilys, Eslyn, Jasmine, ah Long and Jay went for lunch at the foodcourt
After that Eslyn bought us to a corner with colourful curvy seats and girls sat down to chit-chat while the two guys went to walk walk see see

Oh ya!
While we were chatting happily among ourselves this also-not-very-pretty girl came to us for donations
She introduced herself and explained the purpose of the donation
Should had see her facial expressions and the way she speaks...that pitiful face and expressions and voice
SO FAKE AND DISGUSTING CAN!
We were looking at each other and laughing and she still continue talking
She was like, "It's just $10 only. If not then $5? Or each one of you donate $1? Then that will make up $4."
We were like already shaking our heads
And she continue saying, "10 cents? You all don't have? 5 cents? 1 cent? Ok fine." And she IMMEDIATELY turned and walked away and look for more victims
WHAT KIND OF ATTITUTE IS THAT?
We went back to our conversation after that
I enjoyed the talking seesion with them! =)

HTBIG SIMPLY ROCKS!!!
THANK YOU ALL, THE COURSE MANAGER AND LECTURERS FOR EVERYTHING TODAY!!!
=D

Here are the photos that i took on Singapore Idol post-celebration on 2nd October (thanks to Lynn =]):

What i'm to going to say below is a bad example of bad service ok?
Went to work at Giraffe to work like finally...after rejecting Ann and Greg to work due to my hectic schedule...so i agreed to work today when Greg sme-ed me yesterday during my afternoon nap
At night around 9:45pm...this group of 5 people came in to the bar seating
They called for me so i went to take their orders
This woman i shall call her as...asked me what is mushroom duxcelle...so i politely told her that i will go check for her...so i went to ask Ann...then i went back to the lady again...after explaining, she wanted to eat that...so afer taking their food and drink orders i went to key in into the system...then they called for me again and the same woman asked me for the difference between mushroom duxcelle and crumbled mushrooms...then after explaining to her she said that she dosen't want mushroom duxcelle anymore...so i asked if she wants to change the order...and the guy opposite her said that they want to cancel the order and let them think about again...so i quickly rush to the kitchen to tell the chef that the customer outside wants to cancel their order...when i went out Ann told me that the kitchen is closing and told me to go and take the last food order for the bar seating...so i went to that table and politely told them that the kitchen is closing and politely asked them if they want to make any last food order...
and that attitute guy said, "So? Is there a problem?"
I was like, "OK. FINE."
But still replied him in a politely manner, "This is just to inform you that the kitchen is closed." And i turned and walked away immediately
They don't know changing of orders and cancelling of orders are so troublesome lor!
To think i'm still so polite to them
LOW CLASS PEOPLE
ATTITUTE PEOPLE
They have the money to come this kind or restaurant so what?!
What's the big deal?!
Jian Yang was right
These people should try being service staff and us being the customers
Then they will know how to appreciate us

I'm so sorry Mr Seah...
I didn't mean to forget your tutorial class today.
Because everyone was saying that the first day of school only need to attend lectures it juz totally slipped of my mind that i still got Communications Skills 2 tutorial.
Hai...and i got one absent just on the first day of school.
I swear such things won't ever happen again.

Went over to Anita's house today
Because today is Deepavali and she invited us over for lunch
Only me, Ivy, ah Long and Jay were there
This was my first time celebrating Deepavali with my Indian friends
The food was nice
Not forgetting the 'concoction' Anita made
Haha
After that we moved to the sofa seats from the dinning table
The TV was on so i watched this indian drama
They had so many sound and visual effects
Some parts were funny and there are a lot of fighting scenes
There was English subtitles so i know what they are talking you see
And out of a sudden there will be a group people dancing about
Haha!
Then we went to Anita's room to play truth or truth
But eventually it turned to be each of us telling stories
Because everybody asked so many questions so might as well change to story telling session
So everyone started to talk about our own love life and randomly just ask questions
So we just talked talked for the whole afternoon
Now i know a little more about everyone
And everyone know a littel more about me
I just love this kind of sharing session
^^

My sister bought a new phone!!!
I wonder when i have enough money to buy a new phone...

So many so many things had happened. There are times i was happy. There are times i feel stress. There are times i cried. People who knows me will know that i'm a person who needs to talk. I'm not one that can express everything by writing or drawing. I need to talk it out regardless of whether i'm happy or sad, angry or frustrated. I was staring at the MSN window for so long... How am i going to reply to, "hey how r u?"

my mind is finally at ease
i feel so so so much relaxed now =)

TPDE GEM 2006 was a success!!!
Wee wuuuu weeeeeeeet! :)
Of so many rehearsals of curtain call
Tonight's curtain call was one that i will never ever forget
Everyone was REALLY cheering and shouting and screaming from the bottom of their heart
Everyone was hugging one another
I was already so overwhelmed with emotions after Wai Yee and Ryan came out
Tears were already flooding my eyes
Those...were tears of joy
After all those dreadful dance practices from day to night...that terrible 2 days 1 night of intensive training camp...and those days when i had to juggle with work, orientation and dance at the same time...
Everything is finally over!!!
I'm so so happy!!!
I want to share my happiness with so so so many friends and him
But...ya...

Another successful event was the Orientation October 2006
Wee wuuuu weeeeeeeet! :)
There were so much so much so much fun!!!
Especially when i'm such a fun-loving girl!!!
Haha
But all the preparation work behind the scene was tough lar
Learning mass dance...teaching mass dance...coming up with IG item...teaching IG item...putting up the screen for the whole night...and the other big big small small details...

This holiday had been really a fruitfull one for me
So many things had happened
I learnt alot and experienced a lot at the same time
And school is starting soon
Talk about school...i'm so sad now...
Because i'm in different class with Janice, Dilys and ah Long!!!
:'(
How am i going to survive without them???
But then what Ms Ng Li Lee said kept ringing through my head
That time she told me that those seniors who just graduated said that they would had prefered the system where their classes would change for every semester
The good thing is that we can gossip about our own group members and the progress made by friends of other groups in other class can be used as a motivation to push ourself
So, Janice and Dilys...this may not be a bad thing
Afterall...absence make bonds stronger
Hehee
;p

how i wish you were always here with me...

Ah Long, i purposely use large size font for this entry
Just for you and only you
Haha

Yesterday night, me and Jay went over to Ivy's house to learn the mass dance after the IG meeting
Ivy's mum kept some food for us and she even heat it up for us
How nice =)
And her mum said that Jay's face was so smooth
HAHA!
Me and Ivy were laughing when we heard it
Haha
She got a very big living room
With a very big mirror
So we were dancing in the living room in front of the mirror
From learning the dance, to remembering the dance steps, to improvising new steps...
It was so super fun and funny
Haha
We all were laughing and laughing non-stop
It's considered quite good accounting the fact that we started learning only at around 9+ and both of us managed to grasp the whole dance in about two hours
So we went home at around 11+

Janice, you miss so much fun today
We had nice food
And we had fun dancing the mass dance

Today me and Jay and to teach the IG members and OGLs the steps for mass dance
Thsi is my first time teaching a group of people dance steps
Not easy...
But at least everyone went back after learning the whole dance
Whether or not they can remember is another thing le lah
So after that teaching session
We went to get change into our formal wear for the Did it! DHTB1-closure event
Me, Dilys, ah Long, Swee Han, Eslyn, Jasmine and Mither President volunteered to help out
We got to see the whole event too
And after that everyone proceeded to have some refreshments and we get to join them too!
There's alot alot of chocolates lor!
There's finger food...the prawns were nice =)
Puddings...
Panna Cotta...
Fruits...
Chocolates, chocolates and more chocolates!
See lah...Janice...don't want to come lar...
And we all know Mither President's secret recipe to his smooth face!
He said that he likes kiwi and kiwi is good for skin
Ya...so that's how we all know
Hahaha!
So we hang around talking adn eating and laughing
And Mr Yong gave me a chocolate stick!
Haha!
After that, we went back to Block G
Me, Dilys, ah Long, Mither President continues dancing in our suit
Haha!
And Swee Han took pictures and videos of us
So super funny lah!
Here are some snapshots of us:

Haha. We tried to dance in a circle

Alot of times we got confused...

Because we were looking at each other but each couple is doing the opposite direction

See...me and Dilys were turining and...

...kicking with heels

We danced over and over again for a few times. We are like one bunch of students with nothing better to do lar...Haha

Haha
After that we went to Habour Front to eat New York Pizza
Me, Dilys, Jasmine and Swee Han shared a super medium Hawaiian Pizza
And we couldn't finish the last slice
Then we continued chatting
And they started tallking in different languages
And Mither President was trying to learn "i love you" in different languages
Like Hokkein, Italy, Malay, Cantonese, Japanese...etc...
Haha!
So funny lar!
I will be looking forward to next week where we will be able to stay over night next Tuesday together!
=)

Haha!
Talk about felling down...
That time after OC Huston said, "blur sotong...this is the don't know 3rd or 4th time u fell down already."
That night i trip and fell in front of all the working staff while everyone was busy clearing up...
So embarassing lar
Haha
And i remember another time is outside chill room
i trip over something and just nice Kurukul was in front and he tried to catch me
But i didn't fell lar
Haha
And I think Huston saw it.
No wonder...
Haha

Yes, Janice. I will try to be more careful the next time. =)

My butt is still painful after the fall
And i had to endure it throughout the dance practice
Wai Yee was already so disappointed with the rest who got injuries here and there
That's why I didn't want to tell her about mine
TPDE concert is coming
I'm more worried about not being able to perform up to the standard...

Once, i felt so assured
And the next moment i'm not
...maybe i'm thinking too much...
Maybe i am

Friday, October 06, 2006

WHOA!!! HAHA!!! IM BACK!!!
First thing i want to say is that my butt is very painful
Don't worry yet...I will get to there
Second thing is that I SURVIVED THIS WEEK!!!
Know why?
Haha

I shall start

Monday i went to Giraffe to work because Ann was short of manpower until 11pm with a menstrual cramp

Tuesday got outside catering at 8am
All thanks to my sister for bringing my I/C all the way by cab
Otherwise i can't get into Istana
And Michelle is also working too! =)
Got some state affairs meeting dinner
When we reached there, we chiong rest chiong rest
Doing of set-ups
Then help with bringing in the things from the lorry
We were all sweating like mad lah
And during lunch i found a worm on my vegetables
Luckily i haven't taken a bite yet
Then everyone took away all vegetables from their pack...like...instantly
Haha
During dinner as well
Haha
So funny lah...
The first thing everbody does when they open the food pack is to take away the vegetables
Haha
The dinner function was all for super VIP lah...
Of course including our President
As well as the President and some of the others from other countries
We were so super busy throughout the dinner
With nice music in the background
One pianist and one very handsome guy who played the 二胡
I kept looking at him lah
Haha
And i think he knows
Haha
I always get attracted to guys who can play with instruments and guys who dances well
Heh
When i have kids in future
I want want them to learn dance, piano, swimming, roller skating and ice skating
Haha
Eh...as i was saying
Its so soothing to the ears
Sooo melodious
And they were just beside the table i was serving
Haha
It's nice working in banquet
I got to know and see a lot of events
Big ones small ones
It's never the same
But then it's very stressful and tiring lah
And so I worked until 2am
Everyone had to stay back for OT lah
By then my feet is breaking
So super pain
When i reached home, i went to pack my bag for the dance camp the following day

Wednesday...dance camp...
Couldn't wake up at 5am
I dragged myself out of bed at 6am
I was late already!
I had to reached TP by 7:30am!
So in the end i took a cab down
Had some bonding sessions with the Hip-Hop dancers
And had dance practices all the way
Then we also had a workshop by Ryan
After those stretching
I whole body was aching
I remembered thsoe workshops conducted by him back in secondary school
I will always end up having body aches...
Hah
After that, we continued to practice on our own
A few of us slept at around 2am
Lying on the cold hard floor
With aircon
Dirty floor
And a probability of a cockroach scampering past
Although got Wen Long's sleeping bag lah
Me and Huan Yuan shared his sleeping bag
And Wen Long himself had to sleep on the floor
Heh...like very bad hor...
I didn't sleep well
Had a block nose until I can't breathe
Don't know woke up for how many times just because of my stupid nose

Thursday woke up early in the morning for 1600m run
The most dreadful thing for me
I didn't run round the track ever since my NAFA Test in JC2 lah
The run worsen my body ache
And i'm so super tired
Just leave alone in a corner and I can sleep in a few minutes
But we kept practicing our dance pieces
Didn't even have a chance to sit alone in a corner
Wai Yee was screaming and shouting during the time when we were having a test run in the Auditorium 1
That was my first time seeing her so fierce like that lah
I almost wanted to cry out when she scolded me
Terrible terrible terrible
That whole day was so terrible
I felt that we modern dancers were more closer to each other after the camp =)
After we break camp i took Bus 30 back home because i want to sleep
And i slept in a few minutes once i made myself comfortable
All the way from Bedok to Boon Lay
When i alighted from the bus i saw that everywhere was so hazy
And the air smelled weird
Dragged myself back home
And i fell asleep on the floor once i put my bag down
Haha
I'm too tired already
Even the floor of my house is so much nicer to lie on
Haha

Ok
My butt was so pain because I slipped and fell down a few steps of stairs
About 3-4 steps
I was happily drinking my Ribena and i just slipped and fell like that
That very instant was so super pain lah!
No one was around
Pain until i almost wanted to cry

My whole body is aching
My butt is so pain
But i'm so happy that this week is over

Things always get screwed up when i'm working with these people
Regardless of whether i'm in school or at work...
THESE PEOPLE ARE ALL THE SAME!!!
I really wonder how when THAT GROUP OF PEOPLE undergo different qualifying tests and interviews to get into TAS...
At the very beginning when Mr Lou interviewed me
I thought that these 'FOREIGN TALENTS' are a challenge and i'm also looking forward to meeting different people.
I thought they are intelligient people...almost like genius
But it's totally the opposite
TOTALLY
I'm sorry i sounded very mean
But after one terrible experience in the first semester...
Yes, i did meet DIFFERENT people
This is really so frustrasting!!!
I want to talk!
I want to complain!
I want to whine non-stop!
But then everyone is la la land now...

Song Hui realised that i wasn't in a good mood during work just now...
I was so surprised when he walked past me and said, "心情不好啊?"
Wonder how he knows?
That was heart-warming lah...
You know, when everyone and myself were so busy and then there's this one person who just seems to know something
Even one question like this is so heart-felt
This warm fuzzy feeling...
SEE! I STILL REMEMBER MY IntHT OK!
