2009-02-01T01:48:00.002+08:00

this is the ultimate

i have TWENTY SEVEN drawings of floor plans, one constellation mapping and one A3 cardboard model due on monday.
so basically i have lesser thatn four days to execute that.

kill me.

2009-01-21T23:00:00.002+08:00

well, its already the second week of this second semester,
i should oh well stop dwelling about results already.
but because school started and all the rumours going around about who-who being the top scorer last semester,
it got me really panicky about this semester.
and im so so so determined to improve my cap this semester,
considering that the mods that im taking this semester are quite technical [except genes] and i think i should be able to perform better.
not that im finding excuse about doing history and physics last semester again,
but those two were really really my taboo subjects.

and so,
there was this whole hype, when school just started, about dragon being top cos he has like 4.83.
it was really a woah, cos he seems to be able to hide his study lifestyle pretty well.
then a few days ago, we heard that it was curly hair, whom scored a 4.85 or 4.87 i think?
not surprising though, cos he's always projected this really intellectual vibes.
HAHAHA, but not till i hear this!
[oh, im using all codenames for these people, cos my studiomates use them to do our usual 'smalltalk' too.]
shadow scored a freaking 4.95!
omg!!!!!!!
ok lah, not that she's the annoying, irritating, nor looks-bimbotic kind, she's actually quite nice and humble and i think she quite deserve the grades.
im just shocked at the really really almost perfect score.

i needa buck up man.
with the upcoming design mod and construction mod,
byebye friends
and say big HELLO to studio and safari beds.

TOMORROW's exhibition day!

the most random post ever

2009-01-18T02:46:00.002+08:00

i bumped into zhengyi at the interchange the other day.
we havent meet up for a real long time,
but thanks goodness, it wasnt that weird talking again while waiting for our buses.
i thought its pretty cool, ever since the shocking news about him.
HAHA, pretty random, but hey, this is a journal right?

2009-01-15T02:25:00.004+08:00

its still holidayholiday mood over at studio.
hanging out at vivo after school for movies and food
when we're supposed to be so hyped up for the davinci exhibition.
ok lah, thats also because there're seriously too many people handling it.
apparently, the dept wants all year one students to do it and hence the many sub sub sub sub sub groups.
i shall show u guys the breakdown. its freaking subsubsub.
GROUP 1 - DESIGN
GROUP 1a - panals
GROUP 1b - publications
GROUP 1c - website
GROUP 2 - TECHNOLOGY
GROUP 2a - photographs
GROUP 2b - drawings
GROUP 2c - scannings
GROUP 2d - texting
GROUP 3 - MANAGEMENT
GROUP 3a - logistics
GROUP 3b - reception/publicity

haha, and in publications itself, there's a breakdown of books, tickets, poster and invitation cards
and for books again, we're split into layout, printing and binding.

ok, im doing printing. how great.
so everythings being delayed. yay. nothing to do now.
HAHA, but i shouldnt be complaining now lah.
its gonna be HELL after these two weeks.
time to get a safari bed. :[

and seriously, i dont like my new studio.
the people, our location [its in the freaking middle!]
ARGH.
the people from my studio last semester and the only ones i talk to, are all guys.
the girls are so quiet and whisper among themselves.
they're all so 'bei tong' kind.
when there's a situation, they just stand and use eye-power!
even the super 'man re' me started talking to them first lah?
gosh, i envy the other studios lah.
boo.

OOOH, dimsum at 'heisehui' 's pretty good!
and stupid nah-hah with the 'ha-sey-yo' thing lah
apparently, she thought that elva hsiao's "hsiao" is read as 'ha-sey-yo'

ok,what a random post,
but that's my start for semester two. ya lah, sam messed the tools.
see ya

two-o-o-eight

2008-12-31T02:13:00.005+08:00

byes to twenty o eight, goodbye.
similar to all year-end entries,
this entry will summarised linlin's life in 2008.

i started off the year still partying and enjoying post-A's
then peer pressure acted,
everyone started working,
no one's free,
i need money for the planned trip
and there i was frantically looking for a job.

[sidetrack alittle, during this period of time,
there was also the anxiety of waiting for the release of the results,
and the worser wait for the school's reply.
what bad memories]

then the nightmare started.
i was tortured for slightly more than two months in singtel.
after that it was the even more exhaustive accounts replacement at ssp.
but that was also when i enjoyed working in airport
and having friends come over almost every week for a nice dinner,
especially our favourite breeks! :D

enough of all the work shit we've survived,
it was all ultimately for the taiwan trip!
its not exactly a graduation trip though,
cos of the five i went with, only two were my classmates.
but more like a trip to mark a milestone in our education,
a stop to uniforms blah blah and the list goes on.
taiwan's really fun and i've YET TO BLOG ABOUT IT!
oh well, we'll see lah huh? when i do have time, when i dont feel lazy bout it
and when i do actually suddenly feel like blogging about it. HAHAHA

oh, school kind of started.
i skipped orientations due to both work and the trip.
but i was so so so so so glad that it wasnt that bad.
all thanks to the workshop briefing that was organised before school officially starts.
haha, basically, it's a briefing with your soon=to=be studio mates
to teach us how to use the machines in the workshop.
think 'D n T'
HAHA, i actually forgot almost all that was taught that day lah, except for some basic sawing and grilling machines.
but i was glad for that day that this group of equally blur girls,
roaming around school for the matric package and that was when we started talking.
HAHA, we even had lunch at bugis that day itself before pop-ing by at artfriend to get some stuffs.
oh yes, artfriend hence become a good friend in some sense
and sometimes you just want to scream some vulgarities at this friend.

so school was alright.
it's alright because of effects of some neutralisation. HAHAHA
the workload's at one end and the company's at another extreme end. :o
if you guys have been talking to me since school started or perhaps even ask me about school,
i probably would have complain loads and loads about how bad it was already.
mountains of history notes and facts to get in.
yet brain empty empty for ideas.
how to acquire a taste like your prof to get better grades.
the machines and models to conquer.
act like u can sketch even if u cant doodle for nuts.
be like a pro-photographer or u get shoot for crits.
the stupid calculations for physics.
and the ultimate,
hearing words like 'hideous and ugly' for FINAL CRIT.
oh, kill me again.

studio mates otherwise were pretty cool.
i werent really talking to them yet at our old venue at the front,
except for a few like hannah, selene and yingxu.
then just slightly before the recess week, we just started to glue real well.
especially after that, when we were shifted and kicked into the real end of the studio,
and stuff like group projects within the studio starting,
more time were spent together in the studio,
lunch always da-pao-ed back in studio,
each group staying to finish the models,
sit in front of the laptop watching ANTM, stupid youtube videos etc.
then changed to tommy's projector when everyone couldnt peep at that tiny screen.
everyone having dinner after a day in school, mostly at vivo or the prata place outside nus,
rejected at pizzahut cos we were really late and they were closing.
and so, the list goes on again. HAHA.

and
results for this one whole semester of new experience has been released.
one previous entry would have tell you guys how bad it was lah. :x
i need to really work hard next semester.
HAHAHA, im so going to take japanese next sem.
greet moshimoshi next time you call me.

currently i really love the holidays,
spending much time with my beloved friends.
oh and mitch's back for her hols too. :D
though the outings are getting slightly later
and mum's starting to nag about me staying over at friends' houses abit too often.
she says its not nice lah. :[
but i really think there's a need to really spend more time together.
cos everyone's leaving, :[
there's really a high high possibity of ___
im not refering to occasion outings where most people will try attend,
not exactly a class gathering but more like when there's a bigger event,
or perhaps an outing with a certain purpose that more people are willing to come.
because i know these outings are still very possible.
but im refering more to outings with friends that you meet like almost every week,
now its the hols, so perhaps, once every few days.
going out just because we ARE going to meet.
just aimlessly roam about, SHOP SHOP SHOP, eat! and then hog the table and talk talk,
chill, talk about everything under the sun, gossip, bitch about each other etc.
gosh, i really do love them all, u guys do know lah, that few of you.
though sheau was saying about something like,
we should just reduce the frequency, so it would be less hurtful when they leave. :[
it was like, we were talking about it today,
actually not only today, it was always the topic.
how long will we really last?
2009's going be our 8th year.
and im so not going to continue this now.
haha, i know its an abrupt end lah.
but i really dont want to continue this paragraph anymore.
i probably wont be blogging tomorrow cos of countdown.
so till then lah.
i will try to fill in picture the next entry.
see ya!

i hope.

2008-12-30T03:56:00.004+08:00

i thought about this for quite some time now.
and i just hope things werent what they seemed and i werent wrong all this while, seriously.
i hope those constant reminders and self-confidence are just facades for your fears.
i hope time'll prove that things are going to work the circle way.

it's time to blog bout all the events happening recently.
but tomorrow's shopping day and 31's countdown.
maybe till after 2008.
see you guys!

2008-12-23T10:12:00.001+08:00

shall blog more later when i wake up.
till then.

damn the results

2008-12-23T09:08:00.005+08:00

its frigging 9:09am super early in the morning.
im awake even though i slept pretty late at 5+ last night.
ALL BECAUSE TODAY IS RESULTS DAY!!
ok, using caps kind of suggest that i sound pretty excited which is totally untrue!
actually i woke up at 7:30am lah, and if you understand how kan-cheong i can get,
you'll understand how torturous the 90 minutes were!

ok, so i didnt fail any mods lah.
that was the most worrying part
and so its kind of like 'phew'
i cant stand the thought of retaking any mods, especially english!
cos the mod's really stupid and the tutor's really rigid.

but during the 90 minutes, i was just thinking,
even if i dont fail, getting shit grades are just equally shit.
i guess most singaporean students are all like this huh?
when you pass the first hurdle, your grades are just always never good enough.
and so, after being relieved that i didnt see fail grades,
i glanced through my results again and thought, "shit."

so, these are my results.

AR1101 Design I B-
AR1121 Spatial - Visual Communication B
AR1221 Ideas and Approaches in Design B-
ES1101 English For Academic Purposes (SDE) B
GEK1016 History & Theory Of Modern Architecture B-
PF2102 Structural Systems B-

its an average of Bs and B-s! and my cap's super low, real low.
yes yes, i know i need an average of at least B- to get to year 4 which is really important with specialisation,
and that's the worrying part!, this is only semester one!
it is supposed to be the most easy-breezy! and ive already hit rock-bottom :[

im not being whiny here or finding excuses for such bad grades,
but im really disappointed with AR1121 and AR1221.
i thought at least i could ace in AR1121 which i was really interested and confident in.
especially after getting stickers and approvals from peers alike from the various workshop,
except for photography workshop lah, which the lecturer commented that i need to "explore more.."
as for AR1221, it just proves that i cant churn out reports lah.
its like, you keep getting nodding heads for your progression and then,
you write an essay and it totally kills your idea.
its worse that throughout the whole semester, there was no indication of how we fare for any of the mods.

for my design mod AR1101, i understand that the 7 hour exercise probably just killed me
with final crit session sounding like "hideous and ugly" and all in all,
dr.wong just dont like me, especially for asking taboo qns like "should i re-do?",
and was always not ready for crits, presenting and stuffs like that.

yet again, im just glad at least i passed eng, hist and physics lah. [ES1101, GEK1016, PF2102]
though the grades are as shit, but im really really glad to never have to repeat them.

gosh, mixed feelings now.
i thought i could go back to sleep as long as i dont see fail grades,
but i guess i still cant.

its like i dont want to be skeptical about the next semester
what im doing now or even..
can i do this?

2008-12-10T23:26:00.005+08:00

hello people!
ive been cooping at home for days
doing some random sewing here and there, watching some videos etc.
boring huh?? HAHAHA, but im so glad i finish the pencil case!
and i still have SIXTEEN tissue holders undone.
KILL ME LAH. its always the case, i do whats NOT important first.
and i need those 16 by perhaps friday?
HAHA, i almost died when the internet crashed on me for few days over the weekends.
ok, that was when i started sewing lah and going to some random places.
let the pictures do the talking!

second attempt at inner lining :D
though the zip's still not done nicely.

so, over

p.s. so people are just plain irritating huh?
stop being so attention seeking lah and logged off msn if urs is screwed!

a day on..

2008-11-26T23:29:00.004+08:00

well, it's 1am now, but its alright lah,
i woke up at 2plus today[yesterday],
i didnt exactly wasted my day, i think,
even though i didnt study the whole day!
gosh! what kind of mindset and priorities are these!

so, what did i do today?
eh, er, hahaha.
ok, i just did some blog-hopping and reading online.
hee.

oh,
caught the good, the bad, the weird yesterday, with hannah and ching.
cos there're werent any other movie that i wanted to watch lah.
city of ember's not showing yet. :[
HAHAHAHA, i know i ought to be shot, dont remind me of the exams!
but it was after a torturous PF paper and a stream of films that we watched to revise for ar1221 [which i didnt really pay attention to most of it too. :\ ]
so it doesnt really harm to add a extra non-archi-related film huh?

the movie's fine la, just not really my type,
with pom-pom-pom almost in between every few minutes,
quite funny at some parts though, and the good's quite shuai. i love his cowboy style!
ching prefered to bad one though, he's hair's real cool.
as for hannah, HAHAHAHA, she's left with the weird and she jokingly chose the hammer one. HAHAHAHAHAHA. so funny la she.

ok, off to meet yoyo, yohji and rem huh?

today. not a good day.

2008-11-21T17:49:00.003+08:00

topic today was urbanization and its effects on the greens.
efforts of one whole semester wasted.
wasted.

oh man, and im still so stuck in gek.
trying very hard to concentrate to tsuto's webcast.
and there's still hell loads and im sleepy.
crap.

sneaky fella

2008-11-19T02:55:00.005+08:00

i kind of like blogging now.
not in the sense of blogging an exposed entry, but just typing a draft and save it.
haha, u'll ask, then y not just keep a diary and dont even blog.
i'll answer, typing's faster? HAHA.

anyway,
jess kind of found out huh.
not really though, since it was he that told her and that was kinda expected of him. hahaha.
and she labelled us sneaky huh. like no?
i dont really mind,
just that perhaps i was abit worried how the other she will think,
because i sort of know how she felt [though i was not supposed to be aware of it]
and i feel so 'jian' for doing something like that [though its not that serious yet again.]
so jess was kinda questioning me about it and even picked me on being too 'kancheong' in answering. gosh.
he was also online, so i asked him if he told her,
and he even asked if i was paiseh. like huh? hahaha.

gosh
GEK sucks huh?
why cant they just write simpler text?

november 14 and studio one & two

2008-11-15T23:39:00.012+08:00

HOHOHOHO. i slept till like 5.15pm today.
yes. pm. can u believe it??
hahaha, i know its super piggy,
call me pig.

gosh, im happy,
after a long day of november 14.
[if i delete thoughts of my pf assignment due on monday and examinations in exactly 7 days later.]

hahaha, it's like im that happy and im like so determined to revive this blog.
i know the no-connection here but yea, just being random.

anyway, lets talk bout life at nus architecture first.
HAHA, we'll talk bout november 14 later alright?

lets start with some pics of studio one and two.
for semester one, there are sixteen studios and im in studio one.
studio one and two shared the same tutor for the first workshop in design mod
and that's how we grew closer even when we're kinda split for second workshop.
so here they are. [warning! loads of pics]

here's just part of them,i dont seem to have a complete one though. [some are always back in hall, in co-op, or just somewhere else, haha]
anyway, this is just a pic of some odd obsession the studio has.
there's always someone sleeping and we'll sneakily rushed up to have photos!
hehe. i was too slow and hiding at the back. spot me?

our colours day. haha, only a couple wore green for this day cos information was disseminated too late. we didnt took pics for our black day!

the recent birthday celebrations for nov and dec babies.
the ham's for andy who doesnt take cakes.

jess's ernie, our studio's mascot. it got bullied and turned pretty dirty towards to end of semester with everyone doing lots of 'funny' stuff to him. :[

ooh, and the various sessions of fun with kelvin's mac.

ooh, and studio outing to biennale 2008
photos are not in order cos its actually quite hard to work with blogger as uploading the pics will always leave the links at the top of the entry and i cant be bothered to arrange them huh.

one interesting art piece which make use of the architecture at the background.

ooooh, one of my fav exhibitions
these are really tiny at about max 10cm in height?
there's whole loads of it and all are super thin, with black on one side and colours on the other. i guess its really telling something. which's totally cool.

us in one room showing some videos.

we first entered the maggots room.

the maggots are really HUGE huh.

and an attempt for some grand family-styled shot.

and some stupid poses. HAHAHA

me looking for my house to paste my sticker on this big google earth-map.
they say i look like i was looking for my contacts.

hahaha, and some are really funny.

we were roaming about the area trying to look for food. and tried being super friendly to tourist in boats rowing under the bridge.

our attempt to do the qian shou guan yin.

a really happy kevin here.

HAHAHA, this pic's super cool.

kelvin doing his stuff here.

us having milktea.
it seems the whole studio loves milktea! :D
ooh and why this stall? cos ching's gaga over the kungfu milktea and their peanutbutter toast. :]

ooh, we're almost locked in the building cos of this little room.
hahaha, we're trying to act like kids super enthu about drawing with colours. :]

the girls waiting for dinner at magic wok.

it was took at the end of the day when some already left.
hahaha, we could took all these cos the F1 rehearsals were at the back and this part of the road was sealed and not in use.

next, photos at earshot.
it was full when we wanted to eat here before biennale.
we went back for our first project meeting.
HAHA, trying to mix work and fun.
hannah and ching joined us later on.
and we bitched like damn hell lot. :]

its a project to build one out of eighty machines that leonardodavinci designed.

haha, we're the only team with landscape.

team! :]

guarding our model before final crit

peeping and making loads of noise outside while andy's team's still inside.

we happened to wear all blue this day for studio session. :]
it was supposedly uniform day. HAHA, i wore only mj band tee.

working real hard huh? haha

one of our final panels

haha, that's about all for studio!
there's high possibility for a shuffle in second semester.
but i'll miss all u guys. :D

ok, back to november 14.
i dont really know how to describe this day.
well.
before this day, someone gave me my sis's blog link.
yup, i do not have them cos it was not meant for me ya?
so i read it.
it was regarding some other matter, but i read the earlier entries too.
so i found out bout some things and thought things were getting pretty serious.
so i typed a whole long long long email, but didnt dare to send it out yet.
thanks to many, including yihui, joann and jolene, i finally send it.
and thanks sheau for assuring me that it's alright to send it.
really thank you ALL!!!
so i thought i'll get some backlash, but things werent as bad. :]
though things werent changing fast and i know it takes really quite a bit of time,
but at least, like what joann said, at least i try, if not it's a zero percent. and things are turning to a positive side now. :]
im really glad.
and thanks to everyone involved.
including u, sis.

hmm, and i watched Rec on 14th too.
to be exact, 15th la, cos it's a midnight show.
i think it's really good. as in really really good.
it scared the shit outta me. HAHAHA.
no wonder simon warned "rec's really really really really scary."
also company's good. :D
i lied to everyone that's its a group thing. :[
which initially was la.
haha, and im not telling u who.

2008-11-14T02:17:00.002+08:00

it sucks. totally.

and i need to do something.

HELP!

stressed

2008-10-31T02:27:00.002+08:00

i guess that's inevitable in group works?
my group's fun, but im just too slow. :[

random ramblings again.

alright, i know our model's done. [pics soon!, or go facebook]
and i know i shouldnt be complaining when simon's nice to finish two drawings and i've not started!
but yaddah yaddah.
argh!

more moans..
studio one and two keep teasing bout the 'motion-cycle-test[is that the name?]' thing!
andy even showed it to ERWIN!!
like WHAT????

on a sweeter note,
went hits awards with mx last sat.
it was better then expected and a blast!
haha, alright, there werent exactly many stars,

goodnight.

life now is full of

2008-10-22T00:52:00.002+08:00

louis kahn and his adler house
leonardo da vinci and his canal excavating crane
globalisation
philippe malouin's furniture and marti guixe's food
COLOURS!!
essays
drawings
presentations

:x
it's never going to end.

studio's fun.
:[ i cant help but compare the two, especially during this period.

no title for now

2008-09-14T02:35:00.006+08:00

it's the wee hours of 14th sep today,
going shopping with the rest later and hopefully get a new haircut too.

mitchie's left,
and it only make me gradually realise how lonely i'll get
arki's gonna make it worse.
what a pessimistic new phase of life,
to think i celebrated it with a new blog, and perhaps a new haircut.

ok, not exactly new, cos i just changed the address of the old one,
now i dont have a place to tell people that i've "shifted".
its ok though, i dont think it's necessary to let people know.

oh yes, and im gonna stop using 'okie' and change it back to 'ok'
im too old for 'okie'
that's something so random

yup, so back to mitchie leaving singapore.
she left on the night of 12th sep,
i thought i was gonna listen to sheau
make it a happy event and dont cry
but yennie's super influential
other than himself, he spreaded the crying germs to the two beside him
it got worse when i got home,
i know there's msn and skype,
but mitch, im really gonna miss ur presence.

screenshot of video chats earlier on while mitch's talking to her dad. :D

ok, im gonna sleep now, in case i cant wake up on time tmr.
night people.

portege :D

2008-08-30T02:41:00.002+08:00

yay, finally collected my toshiba portege.
im blogging now only because im setting it up.
haha, will try to do it more often now with my white-ty.

taiwan and architecture craze updates soon.
hopefully.
see ya!

2008-06-19T16:30:00.001+08:00

鄭元暢生日快樂! :D

IC and com fair 08

2008-06-18T14:35:00.008+08:00

alright, it's thursday.
mitch reminded me to update on sat. oh well.
today's been pretty bad.
im lagging not just by a little, but by a whole lot at work, meanwhile it's still pilling.
what sad and boring working life.
june’s gonna be a crazy month.
cant wait to get back to school, at least now i just know that pearlin is a fellow school mate and a few others, but all from different faculties though.

and yes,
i know i should be working and not complaining about work now,
but my colleagues are out for lunch, they’re in the transit,
i lost my IC, so im left in office.
alright not exactly leaving me alone, just that the airport police didnt allow my student pass as a substitute, neither do i have to mood for lunch and i thought i ought to complete some stuff before i leave on time today.
i also didnt exactly lose my ic, cos i found it already, i just thought i lost it.
i called the driving centre like 5 times? before getting through to the operator,
i was put on hold for an average of 6 mins each time? GRRR.
so they found my card, and i was kinda shocked they did nothing?
like attempting to contact me even thought it’s been 5 days?
yea, so i’ll be in ubi collecting it after work. :[
Which means, no ot = unfinished work.
the thought of almost having to pay the 100 bucks penalty makes it a painful lesson learnt.

the computer fair over at suntec last week was alright,
nothing interesting, nothing special and the crowd’s expected.
i went there just to get my camera, and was quite disappointed when i couldnt find the screen protector for my O2.
my new greenie!

it’s pretty good I guess,
8.1MP,
compact and light,
has a slightly bigger screen at the back,
has the “burst” mode [say it the grace way]
the price’s reasonable at about 350 bucks.
and it’s in greenie green.

shall update on variants 08 on 8th june &
accounts-dept-escape-cum-east-coast-hawker-with-uncle-ray on monday some other time.
back to work. :’[

save me

2008-06-03T20:30:00.002+08:00

work=disagreements=frustations=confrontation=war
save me, i've living a lifeless life at the airport.
nothing helps when the monster hired another monster
and scare all my friends away. :[

it's 8.38pm and im still slogging my life away,
as usual

2008-06-01T22:56:00.000+08:00

哦,
monday again. :[

foodfair & mud fish. :]

2008-05-28T01:20:00.002+08:00

together with meixin and tongling,
we joined in the ugly crowd at the expo.
HAHAHA, it wasnt me that suggested that alright, it was ahmei!
im not that auntie after all. :]
anyway, we did not go round feasting on samples okie, we bought and shared them :]
sadly, the blood orange by polka that we went there for was sold out. :[
the only purchase i brought home was a litre of barley. :D

oh, then we popped by the popular fair next to it,
to look for the ridiculously-sounding magic fish that meixin gotta help her colleague buy.
apparently, fishes will be breed from some soil within 24 hours and u'll be able to breed some more on a later date if u dry the soil naturally.
yup, ahmei ended up getting a complete kit for herself too.
anyway, the thing is....
HAHAHA, both ahmei and me thinks that ahtong is interested in the boss selling these fishes.
we were standing in front of the video demo after ahmei asked a round of questions to decide on whether to buy them anot.
hahaha, ahtong then suddenly asked if we thought that that guy was quite cute.
i didnt quite get it the first time, cos i thought she was refering to the guy in the video!!
but we somehow found out that this family selling these fishes are actually owners of a restaurant in pasir panjang, and the guy actually promised us free desserts if we actually drop by. and that ahtong was so high and enthu about finding out more about the restaurant so that we can go patronise. :] HAHAHAHAHAHA

omg! it's 2am!

2008-05-23T00:47:00.002+08:00

havent been reading blogs for a real long time,
and realise i haven been updating myself with how the rest are doing.

anyway,
quoting fatin's blog:
"Sometimes I feel really tired caring about other people's problems.
But I don't know why I still care.
The saddest thing is that, who cares about what I have to say?"

all along, there were such thoughts too, but yet again, all along, i THOUGHT i could neither forget nor not bother bout it.
maybe i was just reminded of it countlessly,
that's why there isnt a need for any effort to remember it.
but seriously,
from the very day d and y told me what x said,
i thought to myself "yea, if she thought so, all the more we should be like her."

and for this period of time, i really DID forget about this whole thing completely.
i did my own stuff, go out with friends that did not least mention anything about it again etc.
it felt like this episode did not happen before.

but yest, someone shared something and how she was a victim of such a condition too.
i suddenly felt guilty and i dont know what im guilty about.
the whole thing came back again.

yea, perhaps she's right bout this
it's not as if our care and concern do help her
it's not as if i bother or hecked care bout it really matter

yet again, i've proof myself right too,
it's not something that we can just leave it or make it go away,
not to me, not to anyone of us.

i'm back!

2008-05-22T14:32:00.004+08:00

hahaha, hopefully in future,
the title of each and every of my entries will not be something like, "im finally back"

it's like OH MY,
my last entry was dated 8th Feb.
that's more than three months of being missing in action
oh well, i have always wanted to sign in and post.
be it as short as just a sentence.
HAHAHA, but i was just too lazy yea?
plus i was pretty crazy over videos these days that i'll forget bout posting while watching

HAHAHA, so im like trying to blog now during work. :]
there are like so many things and events to update on.
-farewell for singtel buddies and me myself leaving singtel
-getting a new temp job over at airport
-being super STRESSED by the workload of this new temp job though i kinda like the benefits.
-how i screwed my archi aptitute test and being traumatised by ferris wheels everyone else did
-the archi interview which i'm still waiting for the results.
-ohohoh, and the latest!! MJ won the soccer finals against VJ? YAY!!!!!

:[
back to work.
im super super stressed at work today, there's like thousands of unsolved issues.
my chief is on urgent leave, and there's no way i can ask my FM anything,
he'll most prob make things worse off.
so im currently waiting for my mentor to call,
she said she'll call soon, but i think she's busy with her kids though.
okie, she called.

-meanwhile, yakking on the phone-

the issues are like so complicated.
cos of corporate events and family day events that the outlets take in, there's like so many pending,
it didnt really help cos i understood only about 50% of what she's trying to tell me.
in any case, im just like going to blindly follow the steps she told me.

and the FM still want accounts to be closed on the 2nd?!!!
:[

back to work,
doing OT again. :[ :[ :[
but i want to go home to watch american idol results. :[

:'[

2008-02-08T22:34:00.001+08:00

i must be crazy.
to lose almost 200 bucks today.
WAAAAAAAh. :[
all my red packet money gone!!!!

the magic numbers.

2008-01-16T20:31:00.000+08:00

been ROTTING at home for days
[before meeting up with tong for shopping today.]
cos my ex-link's now a NEGATIVE
just barely 2 weeks after my top-up.
BOO to public transport. :[
im so gonna faster get my driving license.

so it's a lazy afternoon [yesterday],
i suddenly thought of a song i heard from fatin's blog eons ago.
couldnt really remember the name of the band or the song,
but i was kinda sure i'll know it once i see either of the names,
SO. . .
i spend some good time SCROLLING names of each and every artiste or band on the mtv website.
my goodness, the font's so tiny!!!

finally on M,
i saw 'THE MAGIC NUMBERS'

'UNDECIDED'

it's kinda an indie indie, alternative kind of thing,
but i think it's really addictive.
especially on such lazy afternoons,
doing nothing in particular,
in an empty house,
the itunes kept repeating it = HAPPY. :]

anyway,
aska's new album's pretty nice too.
super addicted to 洋葱 by 阿信 too.

employed!

2008-01-14T22:19:00.001+08:00

honestly, i was feeling very uneasy being jobless for the past few days while the others were already getting their first or second paycheck,
especially like rotting at home, all because the idea of paying adult transport fares is still not getting to me yet. :[

yupyup, so ian from recruitex called to ask if im interested in an admin position at telephone house,
the pay's 7/hr, 5days per week but rotating, travelling distance is not exactly short, but at least i can find mitch for lunch at funan. :]
sounds alright, so he signed it up for me,

HAHAHAHA, less then an hour later, i was down at battery road signing my contract. :]
it was like so hurried.
so i'll be starting next monday :]
and i'll be working for Singtel Telecommunications. :]

hmm, so i made loads of calls on my way home.
there's tongling, to tell her that she can stop looking out for any job opportunities for me, to my surprise, she quitted!!
then there's mitch, to tell her i'll be meeting her more often. :]
next there's sheau, to tell her i cant work at dfs with her already, they didnt select me too. :[
lastly, staffservice, cos i just went for an interview at NEC from them last friday, which i think i did quite well and will probably get the job, so i thought it'll be better call over to tell gwendolyn that im already employed before NEC contact them.

photos photos!

dinner with the girls[without fatin. :( ] at manhattan. [credits to kris]

31dec07 at changing appetites.
i realised we didnt take a big group photo. :[

tubao & linlin shouts: we're going crazy cos mitch looks so bimbotic!!!! HAHAHAHA.

the eighty petals

2008-01-12T01:08:00.001+08:00

went for some cousin's wedding at marriot,
oh yea, the food kinda tasta awful.
i dont even know who he is,
worse, before mid-way, i dont even know if i were from the groom's or bride's side, HAHAHAHA.
i seriously think that one of my female cousins looked like some 美少男 from japan.

HAHA, mummy and sis's gonna treat me a meal,
we were too bored waiting at the lobby for dad to get the car,
so we started peeling the gerbera's petals from the reception
and played some petal guessing game.
I HIT THE EXACT NUMBER!!!!!
for a second i thought i was genius.
HAHAHA.

alive

2008-01-02T05:09:00.000+08:00

it's finally back,
gotta really thank gerald for the help,
cos im quite an idiot regarding com stuffs. HAHA.
shall update tomorrow,
gotta go sleep now, it's like 5 plus in the morning??
been catching out on videos i've missed and downloading all the programs ive been using previously.
yupyup, think my mum's gonna wake up soon,
better go before she kills me.

tekong

2007-12-14T00:25:00.000+08:00

so i was correct.
late again.

xuan too and we both panic cos there werent any cab in sight.
we didnt know they were gathering at the bus interchange instead of the train station,
HAHAHA, on the way there we saw a bus and thought it was demon's, so we kinda CHIONG all the way there, only to see 3 guys relaxing at the side bench. :[

farewell and hugs,
suddenly, someone mentioned the idea of going to tekong,
it was so impulsive and random,
we even plead the officers, HAHA, cos i think they only allow 5 people to follow [there were 6 of us if we include demon's parents.]

the visit's quite cool for xuan and me cos we dont have brothers,
while yennie and gordon get mentally prepared for their turn.
we all kinda regretted it halfway though cos we were all hungry.

tekong's alright,
BUT HOT.

HAHAHAHA, i saw cheehao marching pass while on the bus,

OHOH, and dear SHASHA's in the same platoon as demon,
their names appeared on the same list so i guessed so.
i didnt really recognise him at first, it was xuan that pointed it out to me.
cos the guys all had to tucked in their shirts, which was like HAHAHAHA.
we briefly said hi cos we were walking in different groups.

haha, at on point, we were at the 2nd storey of one of the building
and we were discussing if we would bump into sissilia cos we didnt send him off in the morning, and he would most probably murder us if he knew we were sending demon.

AND AND AND we spot this guy in orange marching somewhere with his mates or something with loads of bags, im 80% sure that's darren. HAHAHA, lucky he wasnt able to spot us.

back on S'pore island.
rushed down to recruit express at taka for gordon's interview,
then accompanied xuan to purchase her bag.
it was already five plus by then.
totally exhausted.
a day wasted doing such unnecessary stuff.
HAHAHA.

.. these days

2007-12-13T02:29:00.000+08:00

new name

2007-11-30T23:30:00.000+08:00

okie, i think im pretty much decided

on an english name.

u see, it's difficult not having one at my age.
my name is linlin
NOT lingling, lilin, lily, lynn or whatever else.
i really like the name my parents gave me,
but people always mispronounce it.
my parents did gave me an english name when i was younger,
but i didnt really like it,
so i've decided to choose one,
since like eons ago.
HAHAHA,
oh yes, and i would really want one starting with the letter "s" and something more uncommon.
was deciding between
"SHEYLA" pronounced as SHEE-LA
and "SHAYLA" pronounced as SHAY-LAH
and called mitch for comments,
the former is more rare but mitchie says the latter sounded better.
so so so..
conclusion is,
i've chosen SHAYLA.
oh, it actually meant fairy palace in garlic origin
and blind in irish origin. :o

it's like super weird,
but i just thought if i dont choose one now,
it would be weird to get one later.

HAHAHA,
still call me linlin,
cos shayla is only for people whom mispronounce "linlin" okie?

OOH?

2007-11-30T21:06:00.000+08:00

facebook always sent a message to alert that someone added u on facebook.
i almost fainted when i read my hotmail today.
"D**** added you as a friend on Facebook"
omg!, i couldnt imagine that he would have a facebook account.
imagine someone twice your age, not exactly young-at-heart so that you can easily talk to, totally from a different league. HAHAHAHAHA.
but it was still cool!! :D

:[ :[ :[
i wanted to do shopping,
yes, i was asked out for shopping.
BUT WHY DO THE DATES ALWAYS CLASH????
i wanted so badly to go vivo, then yennie sms-ed bout shopping at vivo,
but i already agreed nnp.
:[ :[ :[

haircut and job-searching and shopping!

2007-11-29T23:52:00.001+08:00

so i woke up late again, at bout 12?
met tubao one hour fifteen minutes later than the planned time. :]
had mossy for lunch and off to chapter2!!

the hairstylist was nice, making loads of effort to interact,
but she persuaded and convinced me into some basic hair treatment
and i got poorer, :[
the end-product wasnt exactly what i wanted, but it was still alright.
cos i couldnt show her the picture of the hairstyle i wanted as it was a catalogue from another shop[which was way too ex], and just pointed out a similar one from their reference book.
bought dye too, dyeing soon!

hohoho,
mummy just told me that i can call up this person tomorrow.
the pay's good at $9/hr and working hours are from 10-5
did some calculations, actually it's the same for $9/hr for 10-5pm and $7 for 9-6pm[which i dont mind either],
but there's commission for this job, training's provided and all u have to do is answer calls. :]
hope i'll really get this!

shopping this saturday! :D
hope to find some real pretty white heels. :]

so true :[

2007-11-28T00:54:00.000+08:00

CHANGED!

FINALLY

2007-11-23T00:44:00.000+08:00

HELLO EVERYONE

i think i should change my skin soon
it's getting boring. :]

mahjong at tubao's today.
there was only pearly and me :[
stupid ernie got lazy.
so it was my first time trying three-people mahjong
i was the biggest loser of all. :[
lucky we played only chips.
but it was fun anyway,
pearly's really good at it.
HAHAHA, she's the mahjong guru, ask her anything bout the rules and stuffs.

was suggesting about finding jobs for sitex this year to tubao
cos christopher quitted his job already.
and tubao just smsed earlier on,
we're going for a walk-in interview tomorrow!
hope we'll both get to work together for some quick bucks [$_$]
it'll really be good cos getting the job will determine if i'll go dye my hair at a salon or DIY it. HAHAHAHA.
yesyes, i really need a haircut soon,
preferably at lucido-l :] :]

OH YAY!!!! YAY!!!! YAY!!!! YAY!!!!
星光帮 is coming to s'pore in dec!!!
decided to go 追星 with meixin
and that will be the very first time for us both. :]
cant wait cant wait cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!

anyway, there's this pk thing,
was hestitating whether to join or not,
not really wanting to pk but just for the fun of it,
cos if there's like a chance to 近距离接触,
WHY NOT?????
and i was reading the horoscopes earlier on,
not that i was really into it,
but it says

"The stage is set for you to make quite a debut today ... and the folks in the audience are huge fans of yours! You shouldn't be worried about making a good impression. You should only worry about staying too long in the spotlight"

which is so 贴切. :
maybe i'll just try to get a good shot and post my entry before the dateline. :]

exciting stuffs soon hopefully!!!!!

anyway,
would really love to go shop at vivo soon and more frequently,
and spend half the day at pageone,
it's really big with many interesting books i want to read.
:] :] :]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUDDIE

2007-09-30T01:37:00.000+08:00

photos mostly from ernie. :]

outside the glasshouse,
L-O-V-E with the lovely bunch. :] :]

our table at a dark corner.

with the birthday girl and demon.
yennie kept saying i looked "matured" which =auntie here. :[
stupid demon and sissy kept calling me 'MA' that night. :[ :[
do i really looked OLD here???????????????

HAHAHA, of all the photos, there was like no one photo where everyone did the same action which we intended to,
most of the time, it would be something like:
"so what do we do now?"
"hmm, let's think of something"
photographer: "ready? 1,2..."
"AHH.." "AHH.."
"anything!!!!"

good illustration of the situation earlier on.
LOOK AT YENNIE. HAHAHAHA.

great night spent with the it peeps.
HAHA. i rushed there cos i was late
and xuan was waiting outside cos she thought everyone's on their way.
xuan dedicated and sang a song for us cos there was a singer and guitarist tt night.
it was meant to be a surprise but i was sitting next to her and she was there deep in thoughts thinking of what to sing the whole time cos either she doesnt have the lyrics or the song's too depressing. haha.
see u guys after A's. :]

happy birthday and get well soon. :]

HELLO HELLO HELLO

2007-08-30T20:17:00.000+08:00

been back in school daily, to study.
except yesterday, which i attempted to try studying at home again.
obviously, i failed again.
thought i blog since my last extry was dated like more than a month ago?
basically, its not because i wasnt online for the past month.
but ive been dosing myself with 蕭敬騰 and 星光帮.
perhaps abit of overdose. HAHAHAHA.
super guilty but still addicted.

anyway,
school's super #$(&)@$_*%# today.
minutes after i settled down on a study bench,
the emergency alarm went off.
i was super super reluctant to assemble at the parade square lah,
thought i'll just hide somewhere, but i followed instructions eventually.

then perhaps due to the weird weather,
alternating between being hot and windy,
all the balloons at the atrium for tchers day tmr flew around the whole school.
practically, the whole school's like infested with the gold and silver balloons,
not only that,
it went 'BOOM' 'BOOM' every few seconds, obviously cos the balloons burst.
and of course there were those irritating councillors screaming and going after the balloons.

had a little chat with ariel yesterday.
im really impressed with what he's done and still doing.
it was so unexpected though i know he's very into this music thing.
but piano concertos, preludes and fugue for someone without a tcher.
GREAT JOB!

今天我终于输了
踏出的这一步就输了

frozen on a sunday.

2007-07-22T21:56:00.000+08:00

it rained now and then today.

cold orchard caravan [doing thermal does not help.] :[

froze for another 5 hours in a corner at centrepoint macs.

super cold cold storage [i must have looked like a retard walking to and fro and shivering in front of the refrigerators looking for the purence bottle.]

bought purity organic lemonade! :]
gonna try strawberry paradise and organic citrus punch next!

and finally found my purence bottle.
only one red purence bottle left, and a purple one for sis.
i was madly sa-xiao-ing to myself when i found it till i saw the puzzled auntie at the wine section. :\

nevermind me.

BLUE MOON

2007-07-01T16:39:00.000+08:00

it was FULL moon again yesterday,

therefore being the second one in a month,

it was a BLUE MOON.

it only applies to us people living in the eastern hemisphere though,

cos it was the month of may for the western side.

how cool, to be able to witness a blue moon,

though its not exactly rare,

over the next 20 years, there'll still be a total of 17 of them,

so dont miss them again, haha.

HAHA, but i'll really like to see a real 'visibly' blue moon.

which is also not that impossible,

as long as there's smoke or dust particles in the atmosphere,

think forest fire and VOLCANOS,

which will disrupt the light or its wavelength or whatever,

*OMG PHYSICS PHYSICS PHYSICS*

the moon will appear bluish,

perhaps indonesia will be a good spot for that?

read all these about our moon about a month back,

cos our moon's leaving us.

it propels itself about 3.8 centimeters higher in its orbit yearly.

that's 38cm in 10 years,

3.8m in 100 years,

38m in 1000 years,

etc etc.

enough of the moon,

the past week was terrible.

anyway, which examinations wouldnt been bad?

econs was bad, i wasnt informed of the extra lesson during the holidays,

in addition, most of the people thought the paper was okie, which only makes me feel worse. :[

mathP1 was real bad, cos i rarely touch math during the holidays,

so i thought i work harder for P2, cos i only work on stats during the hols.

but it was just as disappointing,

i totally forgot about using matrix for questions with many unknowns,

H0 and H1 for hypo was defined wrongly

and i did not have time for the last question,

it's not that bad if everyone thinks that there's not enough time,

i happen to glance at ernie beside me and she was so relaxed thoughout the paper, mx and tongling said they even have time to go through the paper again. :[

chemP3 and physicsP1,2 was the shitty-est of all.

so enough said. :[

ALSO, there's still chemP1,2 and physicsP3 next week,

while most of others ended already. :[

mitch, xuan, gordon and yennie even went for the christina aguilera concert.

:[ :[ :[ :[ :[ :[

nevermind, i'll have my fair share of 'short' celebrations after mids.

its gonna be short, cos,

i was at esplanade earlier on to watch the philharmonic winds.
honestly, i was shocked to find many familiar names in the concert booklet,
haha, cos i didnt know they played for philwinds.
so naturally, many familar faces outside the hall too.
saw huiwen, valentino, kailing, cuiyin, chunkiat etc.

the most shocking would be mr.d.wong,
okie, it's perfectly fine to bump into a conductor at a concert hall
BUUUUUUT, he was with that 'student' of his lah.
omgomgomg, WENDY, i think what we've guessed, gossiped, talked about is true lah.
SHE's like tagging him everywhere. HAHAHA.

so anyway, chatted with mr.wong, he wants us seniors to go back cos he's not getting the juniors any tutors yet.
but it's kinda impossible cos i dont think anyone's tt committed to go back weekly.
but i was there 'fuyan-ing' him with 'yeah, okie etc.' haha.
cos i think we should all have faith in gaoxin and she'll do a good job too yea? HAHAHA.

kevinbobo was good. :]
though the marimba's concerto was a bit boring.
he also played a snare solo named '9th june 2007' HAHAHA. like so random.
and another composition of his called 'gordon's bicycle'
and i thought it was a pretty interesting piece with movement names like 'uphill' and 'downhill' HAHA.

mr.michaeltan was great too. :]
big timpani solos huh. :]
so was lookit, lianwei, mr.dennissim, daniel,
and that stupid zhengyi lah.

while wating for tix outside before the concert,
spotted him walking around busy on the phone and still not changed,
so i supposed he was busy huh.
i never expect him to suddenly charge and attack me with a cold bottle of coke when i was talking to the others and didnt even notice he was near lah.
he didnt pour the coke on me lah, haha, just placed it at my neck.
but it was freezing cold alright and
i was like GAHGAHGAH-ing after that. :[
and he changed back to casual even before we can have little photo-taking sessions. :[
and he uses a freaking cheena accents now, omg, i dont even remember him speaking chinese that way. HAHAHA.

hohoho.
saw something scandalous after the concert.
let's refer this person as X huh.
X was accompanied by a horde of guys heading somewhere else and her partner was nowhere seen.
hoho.

2007-06-08T01:48:00.002+08:00

2nd mugging session with ernie today.
tutu's joining us tomorrow. :]

a not conducive one today.
like $@&*(#@$
i woke up late, so mugging session shortened.
after a couple of hours of me seriously [im serious!] trying the chemistry mid-yrs revision package and ernie on her thermal physics, we started on the never-ending yet annoying topic on religion, yet again.
HAHAHA.
all the way till we met xuan for our dinner.
it turns out only both of us eating and ernie took one freaking hour to finish. $&)(*#@$(*

this is super cute.
saw this somewhere and realised it was the orignal of 杨丞琳's 庆祝.
they're only 5 to 11 and supersuper cute.
arghh, blogger doesnt allow me to post it together with this post, so it's in the entry below. :]

creative PRODIKEYS

2007-06-04T01:19:00.000+08:00

hoho.
woke up early on a sunday morning,
but was late as usual to meet tubao.
luckily i asked her to take her time,
so that at least, we're equally, late. HAHA.

creative did not took part in the PC show this year.
i was desprately looking for the big boards or balloons but there was no creative. :[
i wanted to buy their prodikeys. HAHA.
i was so tempted after seeing gordon's one the other day.
COS i want to NOT waste paper by printing scores before going to the piano to try. HAHAHA.

the show claimed to be the largest PC show in s'pore,
but i thought sitex was larger. HAHA.
canon does not even sell cams this time round, so tubao could not do enough research and analysis. hahaha.
saw lynn, still stuck at the hp laserjets counter and jaslynn and chris at the acer laptops.
i should have joined them huh?
since i almost wasted the last 4 days,
it wouldnt hurt earning some extra cash right?

talking about laptops,
I WANT THE GREEN VAIO LAAAAAAA.
i will save save save and work work work next year
and i will earn myself a VAIO. HAHAHAHA. its so pretty!!!

anyway, we went to mac to study a little. :[
we got chased out merely after a couple of hours.
luckily, tubao's dad was reaching and we went for a second round.
wahh. it just feels like, u're STUCK in nowhere,
waiting to be pushed around. :[
anyway, we left with nothing except for papers papers papers. wasteful. :[

HAHA, thanks to tubao,
she suggested that i can try the creative outlet at plaza sing.
AND i saw the prodikeys!!! hahaha.
it was 69 la and i thought it was okie, since i was expected to pay about 80 for it.
HAHAHAHAHA, and i got it at 39 eventually,
cos tubao's dad bought her a cam and perhaps with his card or something, there were points for more discount.
so, the MAIN POINT IS THAT, my prodikeys is only 39!!! HAHAHAHAHA.
i was like YAY!!!!!

yep, im like blogging at this hour cos i was playing with it for the past few hours.
i know i know, i ought to be shot and should be studying. :[

p.s.
hahaha, im an aspiring music producer. :]

2007-05-20T00:48:00.000+08:00

back from sindy's birthday bbq party.
super tired, but i thought i'll just blog.
since blogger's like finally working.

lets start with the start of the day.
i woke up at 9,
plan to leave the house at 10,
hoping to reach orchard at 11.

BUT, sis was using the toilet, so i get to use it only at 930.
so as expected, i reached real late for my 'first physics tut' with mitch.
it was amusing and hopeless. HAHA.

it was confusing with emerald orchard, orchard building, orchard plaza, whatever u can still think of, HOW TO FIND ORCHARD TOWERS.
the interior of the building is in such horrendous state cos it's renovating.
i made all the way up to the 5th storey and the office was locked.
mitch couldnt help me cos she's already in class, but she asked me to go down to class at 4th storey anyway.
i took the lift, pressed 4 and the stupid lift brought me to the 6th. :[
so i took the lift down again and i practically searched the whole level for like 4 times cos i cant find the class!
so mitch sms-ed that it has yellow doors.
yellow ia such a bright colour, i wouldnt have not notice it, but it has no freaking signs or board on it to indicate caravan, something like that:

i only found a pathetic board on the side of the corridor after that.
i peeped into an opening gap AND GUESS WHAT, THE TUTOR IS MDM.ANG!!!!!!!! [mdm.ang is my tutor in sch.]
stupid mitch go tell her i was outside, so i ran away when she peeped out of class. HAHA.
and i spent the whole next hour waiting for mitch outside class.
mdm.ang left before i could go say hello. HAHA.

nice mitch accompanied me for lunch and some shopping before i meet zhengyi to get sindy's present.
aiyo, we shopped and left bugis with nothing.
so we took a cab down to parkway.
got the pressie and it was the start of the #$(*@ej3yi taxi ride.

first, there was much confusion on where the hell changi beach park is.
initially, he kept asking, in chinese then in english then chinese and back to english to confirm that the place we want to go is changi beach park.
he inisisted on queuing at the side of the road to exit to ecp, instead of although a longer but a much faster alternative.
the meter jumped 3 dollars by then.
he drove at 70km/h and sometimes 50km/h even on a car-less, traffic-less and LONG stretch of STRAIGHT road.
he turned into some dead end and turned out. :x
we finally saw the 'changi beach park' signal and we ask him to turn in.
instead, he went a little further, STOPPED and picked up a phonecall. !!!
and insist that carpark 7 is further down.
so, we drove past carpark 6.
AND UP NEXT WAS CARPARK 5!!!
he made an u-turn while we insist he stop us just there and we find some other means to get to our destination.
he finally dropped us at carpark 6 and it was a freaky $18+
between carpark 6 and 7 is like about a 20-25 mins walk.

so u can just imagine, how bad today was.

on a happier note, met christine there.
and both of us were like mad cos we were practically screaming when we saw each other. cos i didnt expect to meet her there. HAHA, and wendy was scolded by both of us cos she didnt tell us that we'll meet. YAY, we three are meeting up soon!!!

anyway, not forgetting to wish u again,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINDY!
love ya loads.

2007-05-01T22:07:00.000+08:00

ohmy, i guess my next entry will probably take years.
been really busy and daily practices just started. :[
and its not like its gonna end soon, there's still about 2 weeks left.

there's so much to update about,
but i guess i wont have any time soon or will even remember what to write when i can.
basically, ever since the previous entry,
1. went back to chung cheng [for perkies! & dumb wendy]
2. cchmsb syf [like what wengsiong said, 'gone of the golden era' but still love them loads!]
3. mjcsb band camp [dial m, police & pathetic sat]

a very long labour day today.
SCH rehearsal in the morning and spiderman3 in the afternoon.
the show's okie, im not really a spiderman fan, x-men's better!
it was rather draggy in the middle and i thought everyone in the theater could not wait for the show to faster end.

OFF TO STUDY MATH. [alright, soon.]

the other day, i was walking home and it started to drizzle.
and i heard this little boy calling me from behind.
BOY: mommy, it's linlin, it's linlin.
so i turned, but the boy wasnt even looking at me.
i continued walking and..
BOY: mommy, it's LINLIN!
MOM: YAA, i know.
by this time, i was sure they were talking about me, so i turned, stopped and look at them. but i dont even remember if i knew them and the mother-son looked like as if they thought i were crazy.
by now, they were walking in front, that was when
BOY: so should we use the arm-bre-lah?

so it turns out earlier on, the boy was saying "raining" which he pronounced "lain-in" and got me confused lah. I MUST HAVE LOOKED SO DUMB THEN. :[

2007-04-15T20:37:00.000+08:00

Evitmitch tagged me the same thing trix tagged.
and im not gonna post another six weird things bout linlin.
cos linlin's not really a very weird person. :]

i want more pics taken on 13april.
i know mich, gordon, sissy took some each.
SEND all to ME.

yenny, me, mitch waiting for juliet to come out.
[from mitch's blog]

the concert tix was 12 bucks.
so was the cab fare. :[
that's like 24 bucks for half a concert.
all because ms. sia let me off at 8,
when i told her earlier on the concerts gonna start at 8.

so it ended that i did not skip both pracs on fri and sat alright,
though i was very tempted to, cos i really want to go back to cchms to listen to their version of GR selections on sat.
but it's alright cos school's gonna end at bout 2+ on mon, so i still can make it for one last prac.

AND I TOTALLY REGRETTED GOING FOR SAT'S PRAC.
i felt that it was a complete waste of time.
alright, perhaps only the time when perc was sent out to the gallery cos ms.sia wanted sectionals with certain sections.
without instruments etc. we sat by the gallery for near 2 hours. :[
with the occasional number games using the metronome and trying to sing in tune with the tuner. how fun.
and this saxophonist from an allgirlsch incurred my wrath by touching the purple mallets when i wasnt already feeling very happy that the band members leave the door wide open, waiting for me to slam it for them.
GAHHHHHHHHHHH.
im sorry, but i think u've got this really slutty face
and i pity u for having a sucky attitude in addition to that.
what a saturday.

Let the sky cry, restless rain
to wash away the miles between us,
'cause without you it's just an ordinary world

2007-04-14T22:51:00.000+08:00

minister of food/hunger[i forgot which :x] of BURGER-DOM, trixie tagged me to do this.

Each player of this game starts off by giving 6 weird things about themselves.
People who get tagged need to write in a blog of their own
6 weird things as well as state the rules clearly.
In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names.

1. i have a fetish for organisation and cleanliness when it's stuffs at home or something like that, but only my bag's always in a great mess and i like messy hair. HAHAHA.

2. i love using biore pore pack. its supposed to be painful and ur skin may even tear, but i really love the feeling of plucking all the blackheads, dirty clogs, and perhaps the facial hair on my nose. it's like getting rid of everything. HAHAHA, i know im weird.

3. my high-pitched and drama voice. ernie says im abnormal cos of the way i speak and behave, so i suppose that's something weird too. :[

4. i dont like meat or veggies, i love seafood loads!!!!!! but i dont take shells or rare seafoods either. fish's the best.

5. I LOVE tea, especially green and fruit teaS, but peach tea is an exception. i just feel that peach tea's got a weird taste.

6. oh yes, and i really love the number six, i dont know why. HAHA.

the six tagged:
[fill in yourself]
[fill in yourself]
[fill in yourself]

chemistry lecture was DISASTROUS today.
HAHAHA.

for once, okie maybe not only once :] ,
i meant, it was one of those rare times that LINLIN's super attentive during lectures, VIGOROUSLY and DILIGENTLY copying notes.

then the lecturer tried to end of the lecture with the wonders of thermochem.
for example how a diamond can eventually turn to graphite one day or vice versa.
so she went on about a real example and explained the process of converting graphite to diamond.

it was meant to be something extra, but i didnt know and copied it anyway.
THEN, i was getting frustrated cos she was going way too fast AND instead of just filling in the words, i cant find it anywhere, so i thought: "wah, so much to copy."

then, i just felt as if a couple of eyes were looking at me
and i heard this unfamiliar voice of "linlin, u dont have to copy that"
turns out it was the malay female teacher sitting behind, and bcos she didnt teach me, i thought it was weird, as in, "WAH, she knows my name."
by this time, mr.wonglingkeong was laughing loudly behind, followed by a couple of NICE CLASSMATES, all mocking my dumbness. :[

it lasted till the bell rang and we were all ready to leave.
if im not wrong, alan said something to 'provoke' me while the rest still laughing.
so i decided to JUST say something to 'attacked' him.
i saw this fisherman's friend wrapper near his seat,
so i said: "orh, U LITTER!!!!!!!!!"
and that STUPID YINGTA:
"so little already say people little[litter]" [in chinese.]

oh my goodness,
i was slow to respond to that, by the time i realise, i found myself laughing at myself. (._.!)
so embarrassing.

all thanks to:
[i remembered it was lemon flavoured. -_-"]

...
im bullied in school everyday. :[
HAHAHAHA.
ernie and tongling dont allow me to talk,
or else either they'll stare or ask me to shut up. :[
i feel so terrorised cos im on the extreme right of the first row
both of them are the nearest and next to me and no one's on my right to turn to.
they call me 'rubbish' [a nickname to the earlier 'LITTER']
and threaten me to sit by the dustbin. :[

[haha, obviously i know they're joking only.]

2007-04-08T23:02:00.000+08:00

mr nah:
SNOWBALL SNOWBALL,
DONT SNOWBALL.

he's right.
feeling so dead and tied down.
someone free me. :[

2007-03-25T23:37:00.000+08:00

ate at chicago steakhouse after 300 at cine with uncle EN. HAHA
it was an alright movie. HAHA.
they didnt even check for identification or something.
think tubao, demon, gordon, trix, meixin, tongling, fangyi and alllll's gonna murder ernie and me.

ERNIE WITH HER SOUP.

ernie ordered set lunch, which comes with the soup, garlic bread and drink with an additional 2.90 AND I DID NOT.
but the waiter likes me and gave me complimentary soup and bread, though without the drink. HAHAHAHAHAHA.
LINLIN's HAPPY WITH THE SOUP.

at the mrt station heading home.

2007-03-22T22:07:00.000+08:00

BLOCK TEST NO MORE.

just glad that it's over,
though there’s the unforgivable routine of unprepared-ness + last-minutes + distractions repeated.
its quite clear it seems pretty bad right? [/_\]

saw kaiyi at the tpjc busstop.
we were at both ends of the busstop lah.
HAHA, only spotted him when I board the bus and was looking out.
was waving like a retard. I mean me, not him. :D

that was after FIVE dreadful hours of games,
and the THREE HOUR math paper even before that.
all that most probably killed most of the pathetic remaining brain cells left.
there are actually signs of the DEPLETION alright.
I was waiting for the lift at my void deck,
as my bag’s always messy,
I started trying to find my keys in case I stand in front of the door for a good five minutes looking for it later.
so the lift came, and instead of pressing the buttons,
I TRIED TO SLOT THE KEY INTO THE BUTTONS.
my goodness.

there’s still econs lect tomorrow morning.

BUT, there’s TI tomorrow too.
gordon must jiayou!

linlin’s a happy person today.
原来我没比想象中的还喜欢他
原来他也没有我想象的还要好
这样应该很好吧.
THANK YOU MICH.

Over You - daughtry

Now that it's all said and done,
I can't believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down,
Like an old abandoned house.
What you said when you left
Just left me cold and out of breath.
I fell too far, was in way too deep.
Guess I let you get the best of me.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.

You took a hammer to these walls,
Dragged the memories down the hall,
Packed your bags and walked away.
There was nothing I could say.
And when you slammed the front door shut,
A lot of others opened up,
So did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for me.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running

loads of birthdays last week, and maybe a bit earlier.
just thought i'll just wish everyone again.
in case i thought i've wished but i forgot
or i havent wish you cos i was lazy or busy
or i was late and im really sorry for that. (/_\)

another week gone. :[
but physics spa skill A's gone too. YAY.

weekends gone with nothing done again.
sat evening was snappy shopping and dinner with sis
sun evening was spent at my cousin's place.
dont ask bout the afternoons already. :[

luckily, there's still one whole MONDAY to study for tuesday's chemistry.
HOPEFULLY, i'll study.

shall update bout thiosulphate's birthday dinner some other time.
still waiting for photos from pearlin and kelvin. :]

anyway,
i changed my skin again.
haha. cos i forgot to save the pic from the previous skin.
so it kinda *VA-BOOM!* disappeared.

2007-02-25T22:45:00.001+08:00

another weekend gone.

blogger's big kuku

2007-02-25T22:34:00.000+08:00

alright, i shouldnt be saying that cos im still using blogger.
but the new versions with google and beta and whatever shit makes it even shit-er.
i got so fed up that i closed the previous account.
first, all my new posts are not up.
its stuck at the lunar new year ones.
that was when i thought alright,
maybe its time to change skins too.
but it did not work.
so i closed the whole old account.
ALL my 500+ old entries gone. :[
i got this new account.
and editing the template was very ^#($!@ with those XHTML or HTML
ARGHHHHHHHHHHH.
blogger sucks.
but its the only one everyone's using.
:[
