MOVED.
I am finally taking some time off to update my blog! 1. Back from EnginCamp2009 for quite some time. I shall just post some pictures(not in chronological order) and let the pictures do the talking. What can i say? The camp was a blast! Except for the fact that i became 3 shades darker which is terribly horrendous. YUCKS.   My orientation group members. Group is called: Queen of Clubs. This was taken just before finale night.  Having breakfast along the BE corridor. The food is not really nice but the stall auntie was really polite and nice :)  One station of Manhunt. It was the last day, when everyone was REALLY tired.  In the LT for Manhunt briefing.  Sentosa! Had to do a forfeit with Wei Nian because we both erred 3 times during our "kill time" games.  My wonderful OGL, Eugene.    More sentosa! I really enjoyed the sentosa games. What's there not to like about the sand and sea?   Night games. Totally did not enjoy it. It dragged all the way to 2 plus am in the morning. Guess what? Till today, I still dont know who the murderer is. Totally a waste of time. Just not my kind of thing; because I am a grumpy pig who needs alot of sleep!   Pool Games. Very fun.  Trying to learn the almost impossible mass dance. But i got to admit, the cheorography was good.       Dirty games. Last picture is totally wrong. Wrong angle. Wrong expression. Just wrong. That's about all the photos i'm going to upload here. Too lazy to upload anymore. And in case you all didn't know, today's my last day of work! Happy because i have newfound freedom, to do stuff i've been postphoning for a LONG LONG time, sad because they people at SOT are really great. I'll really miss their company.  The three of us. (Me, Esther and Kerina) Great colleagues who make my work experience a really memorable one.  Kerina and I with Kai Jia and Liyana, the 2 new girls taking over us.    This is a picture-much post. Side-note: I am totally GONG!!!! I only found out that YingYu is also in Bioengin. Haha, loner no more! I am inspired by June to talk about 8 random things in my handbag.  1. Pure water facial mist from THEFACESHOP. Apparently, it's supposed to be pure water from Jeju Island. Lol, who knows if it's real. But it smells great and really refreshes my tired face after a long day in the office.  2. Japanese Cherry Blossom Perfume from The Body Shop. It's always good to carry one around wherever you go. You never know when you might need it. Like after dining at FFT!  3. Cleartune oil control powder by FANCL. Name explains use.  4. Wallet from River Island. I love wallets from River Island because they have many compartments and are long-lasting. I stopped using wallets from Billabong because they cannot last more than 3 months, which i don't understand why.  5. T-zone oil block gel from Ettusias. This is like a life saver for me. Whenever my nose feels oily, i'll just dab abit of this gel and it'll be shine-free! It's quite expensive though, 20g for $41.  6. Gucci sunglasses. Given to me by the dear mother. Ah, actually it was something she didn't want anymore.  7. Retarded looking Garfield key holder. This is one of those "gifts" you get when you eat a HappyMeal, except that i got this from Yunnan, when i ate China KFC at the airport before i took the flight back with the rest of the ODAC peeps.  8. Bobby pins from Accessorize. Comes in handy on a hot day, where i can just pin up all my hair instead of letting it fall all over my face. This pretty much concludes whatever is inside my handbag, except that i didn't include tissue paper, which is a must have. Must save this month, for I am working towards a secret goal!!!! AHAHAH, shall reveal the secret once i accomplish it! Sometimes i wonder if the weather affects my mood. I find it pretty queer that I've been rather hot-tempered as of late. It was cool to meet up with the girls after work yesterday. People present: Jo,PX,HL,June,Me. We dined at the Bugis Shokudo, afterwhich we headed to Starbucks. I ate their miso fish&chips which is like so super SINFUL because the portion was seriously huge. It's great to be able to just catch up and update ourselves on what everyone is doing. Fortunately, all of us have found our direction; but for friends who haven't, don't give up. As long as there's a will, there's a way. Plus, it's quite comforting to realise that everyone is still pretty much the same. So i reached home at 12 midnight and my mom went abit mad and started picking on how i didn't inform her that i'll be home late. Yeah i didn't but she didn't have to be so crazy about it. Sometimes, i just wish she'll care abit lesser. It's not like i don't know what i'm doing. This morning is totally weird because, I actually woke up on time. Anyone who knows me well enough will know that I am a bigass sleeper who CANNOT wake up on time. Only I can wake myself from my deep slumber. But for some reason i woke up on time today? I think it's because i didn't really sleep the night before. Did what i had to do, was feeling rather restless though, until is damned girl came to piss me off. (okay, actually it wasn't really her fault, i was just particularly hot tempered at that moment) So she signed up for a lecture slot which clashed with her class. So i told her that she could attend the lecture next week because the slot tomorrow is full. So, she started giving me this face and spoke in a way which totally screamed AH LIAN. Even Kerina found her reaction totally uncalled for. I pity her poor friend though, having to be the one who had to listen to all her bitchings about how the lecture venue was so far, how we didn't tell her that her class clashed with the lecture(as if it's our duty!)... Gah, i kind of had enough. Administrative job although okay, is not something i'll enjoy doing long term. Come to think of it, who like doing admin work? It all boils down to the fact that sometimes, you have no choice. Okay, i'm feeling very fat now. I am totally DEMORALISED because i cannot fit into my Ck jeans anymore. It's one of my favourite pairs!!! I shall starve myself. I must diet. I am trying to be less judgemental. It's a bad habit i'm trying to get rid of. I think that will make me a better person. Went to watch "Angels and Demons" at Vivocity with Xiu Li and Vanessa.  I enjoyed the movie alot! It was so mysterious and gory to a certain extent but nonetheless captivating. Everyone should go catch it! Now there are so many movies i want to watch... After the movie, we went to Page One. Like really, i think it's the best bookstore in Singapore. I have marked down many books i want to get, all from the science section. Unlike the other 2 who have gotten their pay, I am the sad soul who hasn't got my pay yet. Pay please come so I can return to get my books! So i ended up getting 2 books today! (5 more to come :]) 1. Bloodletting and Miraculous Cures  2. Sperm Wars  Will definitely make another trip down. So the 3 of us actually became crazy enough to go ALL the way down to MPC to purchase book covers? Plus, the store was already closing and we ran there. I am surprised at my ability to run in those 3 inch heels. Well, my sense of balance would be a totally different issue because i actually lost it and fell "into" Xiu Li. Gawd, utterly embarrassing. It could have been worse if i had used my index finger(inside joke which made Xiu Li laugh continuously). We managed to pay for our merchandise at nice Lily's counter, afterwhich we headed to Gramaphone to rent "Remembering Chek Jawa". Just when we were about the reach the bus stop, Xiu Li realised that her handphone wasn't with her? And i remembered that she left it at Gramaphone's counter? Haha, she had to run all the way back there to get it. This is what happens when one gets too consumed by whatever is happening around herself cause it increases one's chances of being careless and absent-minded. Sleepy like nobody's business now but I shall allow myself into the first chapter of one book!!!! Tata. I took the colourgenics test. Name: Fang Ming Date: 5/25/2009 Colorgenics Number: 53742106 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You want to be regarded as an exiting and interesting personality able to persuade others to comply with your beliefs and ideas. You are charming and able to influence other people who come into your sphere of influence. You like mental stimulation and you are the sort of person who is prepared to 'try anything once'. Your confidence is so much so that others are often swept away by your enthusiasm. Your situation is such that at this time it is essential that you resolve your inherent problems immediately. You are not listening nor taking heed from your many friends and advisers, all of which believe it or not, 'wish you well'. Most of your colleagues feel that your attitude is out of context - an attitude of recklessness and desperation. It is imperative that some solution be found, but whatever you do, think before you act. It's the old old story - I am misunderstood - my partner (be it in your private life or in business) just doesn't understand me and YOU also believe at this time that you are being completely MISUNDERSTOOD by one and all. It then obviously follows that you naturally feel inhibited and not appreciated. It is perhaps because of this belief that you feel compelled to stand back and let the rest of the world go by. As for developing a firm relationship - inwardly deep down in your subconscious mind you are wary of even trying to get close to another person because you feel that if you open up your heart and feelings you are sure to get hurt. Since you are living in a society where close relationships are the norm, you feel that there is that need to conform, but any close relationships of any magnitude that you may have tried in the past have unfortunately left you without any sense of emotional involvement. You are holding back. You need to find friends in whom you can trust and once they have proved themselves beyond all possible doubt you will be prepared to give them your all. The existing situation is not of your liking - you have an unsatisfied need for mental stimulation with others whose standards are as high as your own. Trying to control your instincts the way you do restricts your ability to open up to others and the way you feel at this time is suggestive of 'total surrender'. This is not to your liking as you consider such thoughts as weaknesses that need to be overcome. You feel that only by control, controlling your innermost thoughts, are you able to maintain your air of superiority. You want to be admired for yourself alone and not for what you can do or for what you may have done. In essence 'you need to be needed' and at the same time 'you need to need'. You are greatly impressed by individuality and have interest in people who have outstanding qualities. You try to imitate those people that you admire and their characteristics, hoping that you will be able to display similar qualities in your own personality. AGAINST ALL ODDS.it's about having the end in mind. The week has come and gone. Endless phone calls, queries, complaints... Weird enough, i have come to realise that students these days rely too much on their parents. Or should i say, parents are over-protective of their kids? Like really, i get rather pissed off when people call to ask lame stuff like: 1.What time is my lesson?OMG, don't you freaking know what time is your lesson? It's not like we change the timings every week. Even if there was a change, we would have informed you 3 days prior to lesson and on the day itself. 2.(calls to arrange for make-up class)We ask them in whose class are they in. They say: I don't know the teacher's name. Rude ass, you dont even know who your teacher is. We don't expect to know the full name, but i really wonder how you acknowledge the teacher. Maybe you don't? 3.(calls to ask for class, we tell that there are no more vacancies)Why don't you open more classes then? Oh please, we'll love to open more classes. Of course the teachers would love to help every student but there are CONSTRAINTS!!!! space, time constraints. So don't make it sound like we do not want to help your child. 4.They say: We call so many times but nobody picks up the phone! We say: What time did you call? They answered: 7am/8am/9am/8pm. ZZZ, which part of Admin office is open from 10am to 6pm do you not understand? We get variations of the above every single day but really, the convo below wins hands down. Mother is Tan, son is B, teacher is E. Tan: Hi, i realise that you have cancelled today's class and rescheduled it on Wed. Me: Yes, this is because majority of the students have expressed that they would like to study for their exams on that day. Tan: Oh, but my son B will not be able to make it for Wed class as he has got CCA. Me: (still feeling nice and all)okay, why dont you come for another class then? maybe on Fri? Tan: Hmm, i don't think so because he has youth meeting/competition/etc etc... Me: Ok, then i'll have to inform you that we can't refund your fees for that lesson because we have arranged a make-up for you and you cannot make it. (note: this is our sch policy) Tan,upon knowing that she cannot have her money back instantly turned into a big monster and started screaming like a mad bitch. Tan: What! This is not even my son's fault you know. Obviously he can't make it on other days, that is why i put him into the Mon class. Actually he could make Mon cls but you all changed the date and now it becomes his fault? Me: Er, but it's the majority of the class... (OH COME ON, by now you should know the world isn't fair) Tan: I don't care.... blah blah keeps insisting it's not her son's problem and that we should pro-rate her fees. Me: I'll speak to the teacher and see what i can do. So, i did speak to Miss E and guess what? E: What? It's her son B and a few other guys that said they didn't want to come for class on Mon so we changed class!!!! No problem, i'll call Tan myself. Me: Hah, okay. TO TAN: SCREW YOU. NOTHING BUT AN IDIOT. NOW YOU HAVE SHOT YOURSELF IN THE HEAD. I really hope i don't ever come across such irresponsible parents anymore. They really shorten my life, i think. Hmm, saw alot of JOJO this week. Jo, if you read this: I must say that i am still angry with you for causing me to have heart attack!!!! Haha, but since i indirectly caused you to make a wasted trip down to office today, we're quits :] Going out for dinner later with mommy. What shall i eat? PONDER PONDER PONDER. |
