sigh jay chou? lightsticks? oh good grief i hope the evil duo of bird and jasho don't attend the singapore idol final. haha.

well cip yesterday was really quite boring. we were trying to sell useless stuff to people with absolutely no need for them. candles... fridge magnets... and a whole bunch a strange things. i mean they're all pretty and everything but what's the point of these? and we met some strange characters. like bon voyage. this crazy lady in a poncho like top with bon voyage printed all over it. i guess she can't really stand the ppl around her. well she sure had a whale of a time at the lucky draw. she had like 50/60 lucky draw tickets all preserved nicely in envelopes. and i think she won 4 out of the 50 prizes. which is really quite a high success rate considering the number of tickets in the stupid box. i didn't win any :( then there was the mark zee-gone-wrong guy who wanted to buy this small box of pink paper flowers. the lunatic couldn't even buy them on the spot. he wanted us to reserve a special box of pink flowers for him even though we had like 10 extra boxes. er right. so to give him a false sense of security we put it aside. and an hour later, he came from the stall he was manning (right next to ours) and paid the dollar for the crap flowers and left really contented. oh and i almost forgot the strange chinese high boys. one kid had 4bucks to spend. so he spent it on what? candles and a box of yellow paper flowers. ????? i'm a girl and i don't even want stuff like that. he looked genuinely pleased with his purchases. and he came back later to buy another candle cos he thought it was really nice. what an excellent place to rub shoulders with the elite.

then bridget jones in the evening. if it weren't for the free tickets i wouldn't even consider going. but i went anyway. haha it's a really funny show. especially good if you're feeling loser-ated or fat. brainless of course (did you expect anything more?) but a nice way to unwind. yup so if you've got a whole bunch of pocket money left over this month and are feeling like a total loser go watch it. you'll feel much better after.

concert.

SUBLIME.


1. JAY CHOU can sing live. in fact, he's very good.
2. he is THE REAL PIANO PLAYER. maksim is just a lousy techno guy. i am suddenly inspired to take my exam again. haha.
3. he talks more now. and he is really quite humorous!
4. he looks nice from certain angles.
5. i need to take photography lessons before the next concert. and bring extra memory cards. and batteries.
6. jasho and i are actually crazy scream-ey teenagers. and we bought lightsticks but didnt use them. oh gosh that's like SO embarrassing. ymw will LAUGH at me! :(
7. i am still very high.
8. JAY CHOU ROCKS.
9. he is a GENIUS.
10. he is THE ONE.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and i managed to recover my files. THANK GOODNESS. or else i would have DIED. i should stop fiddling with the stupid camera. so now i (my dad actually) paid 30 bucks to the sim lim guy to recover the files and he gets to keep free jay chou concert pictures and videos in his computer! lucky him.

apparently last night's jay concert was really good. but then you wouldn't expect anything less coming from bird. haha. anyway tmr is my first session of intensive cip during the hols. i'm supposed to help at a handicraft stall at this fair at taka. 9-6. loooooooong. come see me or i'll be bored :( oh and next weekend there's this disability exhibition at singapore expo and i'm going to help out there. apparently the 2 singapore idol finalists are going to be there too. hooray for me. can you just tell how totally psyched up i am about that? nah i didn't think so. ugh i think i should go work on my jobshadowing report before i really forget the whole incident. bleah.

shopping!

finally met up with ymw today! haha she's got new hair that's shorter than mine. and nice red streaks. this is so horrible! the 'iridescent light brown' hair dye is like MY ORIGINAL HAIR COLOUR. cheated.

anyway, we gossiped about -certain- people, walked around the whole stretch of orchard and couldnt find any nice stuff. :(

i must psyche myself up. so i can get into the crazed teenager mode for the JAY CHOU CONCERT TMR!!!!!!!!!

green day..........

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone

My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line of the edge
And where I walk alone

Read between the lines
What's fucked up and everythings all right
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone

My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone

wah i see we are getting some very idol-passionate ppl on the tag board... haha. sylvester should just burn...
nothing much to blog about except that i went out yesterday and had so much fun shopping. oh taxi is such a funny show! and gisele bundchen is so hot with legs that never end.... haha finally meeting up with BIRD tmr! yay yay yay! and maybe acjc drama performance on fri. then another party on sat and long com service on sunday at taka. come visit me! so that's this week. i feel more exhausted during the holidays........

I have decided that maggi mee tastes alot nicer with chilli sauce. my tastebuds are becoming increasingly chilli-tolerant. ]

and i am becoming increasingly irrelevant.

yucks just the thought that bird and i could be the same person is just... yuck yuck yuck. haha. i'm feeling so sleepy now. had training at ri this morning. and training yesterday as well. but i can't go to sleep cos i'm supposed to help my mom tidy up the house for tmr's back to back parties. mom's having her friends over for lunch and the softballers are coming for dinner and stayover tmr... fun! but then they'll both be popiah parties and i really don't like eating popiah all that much :( anyway i ended up playing trivial pursuit with my sister the whole night yesterday. in case you don't know it's a general knowledge kind of game. I AM NOT A FREAK. it's actually fun ok. and since we finally got a new version unlike that mega outdated 1970s one we had previously, i could answer most of the questions... haha. i won! but i don't think you're interested to know that. hmmm i've been getting mixed reviews on my haircut which i think i failed to mention previously. but i doubt many ppl will get to see it cos i'll tie it up again soon enough.

--i can't belive sylvester sim beat olinda. like WTH???? yucks

the return of bird

i wonder if people actually think that ymw and bird are(is?) really just one sad nutcase pretending to be 2 very different people. especially after jo told ymw that she talks like ME when they met on the train after ymw missed me by a few seconds. that is just SO freaky. i am personally horrified(and insulted) at the thought that some people actually mix the both of us up. apart from the fact that we are of the same height, i dont see why we should be mistaken to be TWINS. we dont look the same and ymw obviously is blessed with more brains..!

oh the week has been relatively boring. training at bishan park(joy and jubilation!! lesser travelling time!) on mon and competition on wed(we got SECOND, michael jeyaseelan.) today should be a little more exciting. candy empire, fondue AND mamma mia with sarabird tonight....!!!!

if you have spare cash or if you're just feeling rich, do something meaningful with the money. dial 1900-112-1903. SYLVESTER SIM will be very grateful. :)

alright i've run out of things to blog about.

alright singapore idol is on tonight! that means i have an excuse not to watch tv. yay yay yay... last day of jobshadowing tmr. jianhong got some cookies to give to the staff. haha. we are big cheapo meapos. oh and i might be able to have lunch with wangyang tmr. how fun!!... argh i have nothing to blog about :(

hoo boy so much has been happening in the past few days. lots of great house parties and movies! mystic river is a fantastic show! you should all go watch it NOW!! the intensity is unimaginable. and i cried! well one tear is considered crying right? and so many angelina jolie movies recently too. i think 4 or 5 already. and i think she is really quite gorgeous. her eyes! i still don't like her lips much though.

ok let's see... hari raya dinner on sunday which was really fun and the food rocked! the guys had a match on monday. pretty good... but it was so hot. i was really browning in the sun. and today was my first day at jobshadowing! dover park hospice. haha the lady who briefed us this morning was so funny. she insisted she couldn't remember our names so she kept calling jianhong 'hong1'! haha it was so funny. as for me she couldn't even remember 1/3 of my name. oh well. i 'shadowed' a medical social worker today. eye-opening. i think the scariest part of the day was when i sat through 2 admission interviews. [when the hospice staff talk to the relatives of patients about the illness etc] gosh it was so... i don't know how to say it. but i really felt like crying when i sat there. i mean can you imagine if you are the relative listening to a doctor/nurse tell you that your siblings/parents are going to die REALLY SOON? possibly in just a few days. i really don't think i could take it. but there were all these everyday working class ppl having to hear that they should try to fulfill any last wishes. as soon as possible because you never know what will happen the next day. oh oh i feel so sad already. it probably sounds really stupid when you read this but if you were actually sitting in that room watching their facial expressions change... i don't think i want to work at a hospice next time. even as wonderful a thing as it is. i don't want to just alleviate people's pain. i want to save people.

i'm feeling good today. don't know why. well on deepavali i went for a party and they had a set of drums there! haha my sister and i were banging around on them the whole night. damn fun! haha but we're no good. we're trying to convince our parents to get us a set. fun fun fun! then watched singapore idol. ewwwwwwwwwwwwww... i should have kept up my 'boycott'. i guess ppl like olinda and taufik are pretty talented but is it just me or do you find them boring? it's like i can't force myself to sit there and stare at them. oh well but if it works for other ppl like bird... then i guess my opinion doesn't matter much.

well holidays so far has just been training training training :( so of course i thoroughly appreciate the time i get to spend at home. doing nothing in particular. i wish they would jamie oliver back on at lunch time. now when i have lunch i have to watch this incredibly boring italian chef cooking pasta. yawn. seriously it's almost as bad as yan can cook. or iron chef! haha that's the strangest cooking show i've seen. bird's a fan right? haha the way the tv station dubs the jap ppl is so so funny! you should watch it if you're REALLY bored. anyway i think i'm going to the motorshow at suntec later in the afternoon. check out hot ferraris!

at last! an update on my sad sad life (:

that's it man! sylvester sim sings JAY CHOU! he is THE SINGAPORE IDOL. i know it's people like me (those who go mad at any mention of JAY CHOU or any of his songs) who screw up the singapore idol votes but i dont care! to hell with the "vote for talent" crap! it's singapore IDOL for goodness sake! not everyone's idea of 'idol' is based on talent alone. but then again, i am NOT saying that sylvester sim is not talented.

ok, i'll spare you.

talking about vegetarian food, i am NOT walking into a vegetarian restaurant again anytime soon. we went to some vegetarian restaurant today to celebrate my mum's birthday. and i thought i was eating rubber. ok so i'm not into healthy living.

training tmr. i dont like the idea of doing sprints at 12 noon.

since bird doesn't seem like she's going to update you on her life i'll tell you abt my horrible one. training yesterday was fun! we got to hit these squishy yellow balls with a stick bat and they whoosh far far away! haha makes you feel like you're a really good batter. then did some catching. i'm getting used to it and hopefully i'm getting a bit better. i got whacked in the face twice but the mask is damn well padded so i better not get scared of catching next training. it is tough man. i throw like shit with all the equipment on :( got a lift from serena home. it rocks to have someone staying so close! then i watched lara croft tomb raider! haha. and half of jurassic park 3. oh so bad. dr grant is such an indiana jones wannabe. bleah.

i think something bit me on the finger at training yesterday. and now it hurts and i can't type properly. i always get bitten by shitty insects on the school field. and these bites on my legs swell to such gigantic proportions. ugh so irritating.

haha bird just sent me a warning of vegetarian food. i have my fair share of bad vegetarian. the worst had to be that gross "chicken" rice at the ren ci charity phone-picking-up com service last year. seriously i don't understand how ppl can live on beans and vegetables all mashed and processed to look like meat. yuck. i need real meat. i'm a carnivore! with some vegetables on the side.

hello hello! i finally got the sp cd with my crappy cd-rama vouchers. haha the dvd is so funny. eh jasho i didn't see any electrico or pug jelly so i couldn't buy :( anyway i went to watch ladder49 with my sister before training. it is so depressing. i need happy endings. i mean in real life happy endings are few and far between but don't you like to believe that such things can happen? well *spoiler* poor jack died :( i almost cried. and that's saying a lot. but i thought the movie was a bit slow. i ended up checking my phone in the last half hour. not a good sign. hmmm and joaquin phoenix bears a startling resemblance to jordan nfg. freaky!

then training. oh gosh catcher's equipment is so not easy. it's so stifling. and the sweat just kept collecting and dripping down in great salty drops which stung my eyes :( but i'm going to work hard and become damn zai. i hope at least :S

anyway i got into the IMCB research programme with bird. and oh yes i have a nasty feeling all the other ppl in my group are guys. funny i don't know a single one of these ppl. anybody know edwin chua, gabriel yee, derek chong and xie bo? oh so scary! what if they are all massive brainiacs and discuss high level genetics as a pastime? i'll feel so damn stupid. for the time being, i'm pretty much looking forward to jobshadowing next week. there's this other girl from 3e who i don't know but it doesn't matter since i know jian hong. phew. it's difficult meeting new people... since i think they find me weird. haha

haha yesterday was so weird! i like missed bird by a couple of seconds at the mrt! so freaky cos SOMEBODY was talking about me before that. heh heh.

i've been cleaning out my room. it doesn't look a lot neater but i threw away tons of stuff. which means i've even less stuff of the little stuff that i had. make sense? but cleaning/clearing is highly therapeutic. so you should all go do it. your moms will be pleased too anyway. i'm almost done with my book: the secret history. it's good. i wish i knew a bit of french and greek though. not essential but it'll probably give you a better understanding. anyway this book kind of freaks me out and i try not to read it just before i go to sleep. it's dark. and i've been having rather disturbing dreams about death and murder. ugh i sound like a psychopath right? i'm not.

anyway bird have you seen room on the third floor video? it's really weird. and danny looks quite shitty. haha.

rollercoaster ride!

training, training AND training!!!

had training at west view primary school with tabi's primary school boys today. they are like half our size and run twice as fast. if we had them on our team we'd thrash hwa chong man!! and some of them are SO CUTE. :) anyway we had to take the lrt from choa chu kang to get there. and we must have ultimately maluated ourselves cos we were being so suakufied. lrt is so cool. it's like a rollercoaster!! public transport has never been funkier.

i've got a collection of agatha christie's short stories! this is absolutely fabulous.

the guys on survivor got totally screwed over! gasp!! haha i think i'm like the only person around who still follows survivor and doesn't follow singapore idol. but anyway i heard leandra got kicked out. too bad.

random thoughts 2

1. i am not blushing.
2. 1pm-4pm is obviously not a very good time for training.
3. i finally understand why ymw is such a sunblock lotion freak.
4. today was taufik day. quite impressive.
5. i still think sylvester sim is THE SINGAPORE IDOL.
6. oh no i've developed a silly schoolgirl crush! i just voted for sylvester sim. again!
7. one more day. till pw eats shit and dies and disappears from my life for good! hooray.
8. we should take a pw group photo to remind us of the wonderful pw moments we've shared together.
9. i was just kidding.
10. i hope i will not get scorched under the sun tomorrow.
11. i need to do pw.

oh my god pw is like over!!!! i feel such tremendous relief. well i mean the op didn't go super fantastic but good enough for me. yay and our file is done already so no more pw. hahahhahahahahahhahahahahhaa. i can still hardly believe it.

oh shit i just ate some listerine pocketpaks and it is so darn hot. my mouth is like on minty-fire and my eyes are watering like crazy. so uncomfortable!! argh i have to go rinse my mouth first. hmm well now i'm at such a loss as to what to do. (not the pocketpaks. i mean with my time now). like suddenly there's really no more work to do. i'm definitely going to do a lot of reading. current affairs especially. i'm so inadequate in that aspect. oh and my vocab. ugh dreadful. i decided this holiday i'm going to try reading at least one chinese classic. like hong2 lou2 meng4. or i could just watch the san1 guo2 yan3 yi4 vcd. that seems like a much better option. but no i shall not be lazy. reading is always better.

what shall i do today? not singapore idol. i find it a waste of time. the quality was bad. i hope it has improved a bit. i think the last ep i watched was the rock and roll one. bleah. i'll just read my book then.

well i just spent my day squinting in front of the computer. my sister says i always look like an office worker cos i put on cool specs and have my hair all bunned up. eeks i hope that is not my future.

training on wed was sad sad sad sad sad. it didn't rain. it bloody hell poured. hooray. it was so unfruitful (is that even a word?) and unsatisfying. my batting really sucks big time. i don't know what to do. and tmr, i'm supposed to don all the catcher's equipment. oh boy am i really going to do this? i mean of all people, how did i end up the catcher???

well today was just pw pw pw pw pw pw pw pw pw oh and did i mention pw? then i went for dinner at this penang food place which sucks so bad. oh my gosh it was awful. the service there was disgusting. we asked: can you recommend some nice things? and the waiter (i reckon he's actually quite senior staff) goes: all very nice. and then he just walks away. like wth???? the food didn't make the experience any better. grocery shopping at giant. at least i got the yummy teddy bear biscuits. you know how depressing it is that the only real shopping i've done for a while is grocery shopping? sigh.

CSI tonight!!! i missed last week cos of blasted pw. and that was supposed to be a good episode!! i need season 3 dvd now!

random thoughts.

well i havent been updating in a while. and the reason is obvious. i have a sad and boring life just like ymw! :( i have decided that i wont type in prose for a while. too taxing for the brain.

1. the word "dashboard" that comes up on the main blogger page makes me think of dashboard confessional and the song "vindicated". vindicated vindicated i am selfish i am wrong i am right i swear i'm rightttt... sheesh i just thoroughly embarrassed myself.

2. i went shopping with my mum on monday.

3. i need to shop more. i need money.

4. i cant find any George Winston "Variations on the Kanon" mp3s. which REALLY sucks cos the version i play on the piano freaking sounds like my own variation. which is NOT a good thing.

5. i actually spent half the day looking for mp3s. too much time drives me mad.

6. the song "deep inside of you" is nice. i think it's by third eye blind.

7. nothing can stop THE JAY CHOU FAN from buying tickets to his concert on the 26th of november. not even laos. exciting stuff. we're going for the concert jasmine!!!!

8. i think pw has been/is a total waste of time. eat shit and die!!

9. i suspect jai singh does not read our written reports AT ALL. pity.

10. no matter how much i rant and rave about THE PW SHIT, i actually quite like my group members. and hu chen is really kinda cool man.

11. alicia keys has a nice voice. and i dont care if i'm the only one who thinks so, but she's got eyes like kit fei's!

12. sylvester sim is THE SINGAPORE IDOL!!
