watch this ppl, it cracks me up man hahaha he's a TOTAL NUT!!!

hahahaha

my dress up like a guy day

2009-06-21T09:37:00.000-07:00

those who knows me, would know that my mood defines my dressing and wad i choose to wear
yesterday was the second time I had the i-wanna-dress-up-like-a-guy mood and i wore this and went to church

i think i look cool wad haha. though caryn said i look like i'm going to school

and the day i decided to dress down and be odd, i met like 5 JC friends, not classmates but friends. One couldn't even recognise me. This is so not how i want them to remember me for the next 1 yr or so before running into each other somehow or another

the last time this happened, I met nadiah, my sec school best friend whom i've not met ever since we took our O level results. and guess wad i was doing? MUNCHING ON POTATO CHIPS in my PT uniform pls. the day i finally gave into my cravings and decided to eat potato chips is the day i meet my long lost friend.

why oh whyyyyyyyyyy???

2009-06-19T08:03:00.000-07:00

the two things that makes me really happy is

1)surrounding myself with balloons

2) eating ice-cream

something i did with kiyo today, i love biscotti and tolufo ice-cream :)

my days are filled with final year project, ms practicals, ms clinical patterns, paeds presentation, AP report AND presentation

its these simple things in life that keeps me going, and not forgetting that me and caryn are gonna have a combined bday party at this gorgeous place and 177 bucks worth of damage done at the Mango sale
i can't wait for week 11 and 12 to be over

sentosa with clar on sunday :) hide the sun pls, i dun wanna tan

'm ill

2009-06-03T04:10:00.000-07:00

yesterday, I unleashed my cravings all at once with a certain friend (not to be named or else i'm so dead haha) in between lessons and project meeting
so we had a hotdog bun from the library, chocolate brownie with vanilla ice-cream and mushroom soup from splash and decker. This is on top of the lunch we had a couple of hours ago

then i got home, went for rc, got back and had tim-tam with coffee at 11pm with jean

and now, i'm officially ill
with a sore throat, flu and hopefully no fever
or else, its like the H1N1 symptoms la!
my mom's insisting that i go to the doctor but i'm a lil scared
i mean like can u imagine if i got quarantined cos of an overdose of happy food?!

ok now grandma's taking me to the doctor. i'm going to be fine

2009-05-23T18:08:00.000-07:00

Self-fulfilling prophesy

so yesterday, I spent the day at the far north at jocey's place which is at yew tee to make ba zhang! haha. seriously it looks easy but its super hard, or maybe its just me cos pangsie's first one already look not bad and mine only started looking like the real thing after 12 ba zhangs. the rest are pillow-shaped.

and lilo, jocey's dog is the first dog I ever carried and she's so adorable!!
when she sees guests around, she'll be super excited and she'll bark and chase her own tail in circles. But after that, when I'm all settled down and wanna play with her, I became the one chasing after her

pictures will be up once jocey posts them on facebook *hint
=D alright i'm off to start my very busy sunday of week 5

short post

2009-05-21T05:11:00.000-07:00

a short post on the day frog prince went to school haha

he was so well liked and no, he isn't eating the monkey! the monkey jumped into his mouth lor haha

in case, u were wondering wad's frog prince doing in school, i brought him cos for our paeds module, soft toys are used as ''babies'' for us to practice handling babies

and I wanna introduce you to what i call, a budget substitute to Ben&jerry's!
.......... MEIJI's Chocolate ice-cream with what i think is brownie bits

the words are in japanese so I can't exactly make out the flavour but its super super nice! its only like 2 bucks and it was found in the Indian ma ma shop downstairs so, when u pass by the ma ma shop downstairs u must try the ice-cream ok!

updates regarding school, I've been doing ok so far, trying to keep up and finish up stuff. By God's grace, I'm surviving.

i'm held by Your love, upheld by Your grace

I want/need/want this baby
This will be the only phone that will make me switch my favourite nokia right now
Life will be good after this

Anyway, just a side-note, tv mobile has this on and off inspiration quotes they show and I just happened to catch one today while daydreaming in the bus
it says,
Friends can be the wind under your wings,
or the anchor of your boat

I'm so thankful that I've got the former :)

but right now, I just can't believe I'm squabbling with vincent over facebook. Why does small things matter in a relationship. It just sounds so ridiculous doesn't it?

friends are the family u choose

2009-04-30T08:29:00.000-07:00

3 weeks of school has passed and my life revolves just around 3 things:

school, rc and tuition

just this week alone, i had tuition cum rc on tues and i just had another bout of science tuition then i rushed back for rc and still, im glad im surviving :)

i know that school started when

1. I have to wake up at 6am every morning

2. I get/send less than 10 smses a day

3. I have no life outside school and work

4. I'm broke after the holidays

5. I can't catch up after just 3 weeks in school

according to caryn, we're now having the geek lifestyle= all study, don't think of playing already

thankfully, i've got friends to keep me going, pushing on towards the end goal at that is to get into uni by some form of miracle

that's us at our joyce & yen's bday picnic at marina barrage :)

friends are indeed the family you choose
i reallyyyy love this shot, although it would have been perfect if joyce, nurul, jm, mash and joce (the photographer) could be on it too man

i wanna wish myself all the best at school and pray i'll survive through literature review.ARGH

vincent li needs to be smacked

2009-04-04T09:34:00.000-07:00

OMG. i don't know whether to laugh or cry

HELLO WORLD

2009-03-27T00:26:00.000-07:00

HELLO EVERYONE, jac's back to blogging cos now's the start of 3 weeks of break before i start final year!

looking back at how much we've all been through in this course, its quite amazing how time just flew by like this and POOF i've hopped over all the past obstacles and made it to final year. This is true evidence of God's grace.

- I've never been fantastic at studies, i need to work my guts out to get a miserable 0.1 increase in my GPA in 1st sem only to have it drop again after 2nd sem

- I need 3 1/2 weeks to adjust to outpatient clinicals and finally understand what's it about, in between i've been doing nothing but picking myself up over and over again as things get more discouraging over the days and guess what, i still passed even though i had good performance for only 1 1/2 week cos i've got a great supervisor who does not believe in failing someone based on 1 case

- I need people to lean on and complain about stuff to get things off my chest cos i'm quite sure i was in depression during 3 weeks of clinicals and God provided people like qing, jm, peigin, pang, mash and kiyo to help me along the way and encourage me.

not forgetting my dear kkh partner, bernice, who walked through the whole 5 weeks with me and saw the entire process i went through. she said if i were a comic, the first 3 weeks wld be filled with dark clouds on top of me haha

thanks BB for letting me cry after audrey came, on the bus and during lunch (im such a baby), i must have looked super ugly haha. and thanks for worrying for me too, i still have ur card :) we made it through tgt! yay!

our 5 weeks in kkh,

on 2nd last day, we had dinner at ichiban boshi and on our last day, we had a picnic at the roof garden with razi!

and we were so bored in kkh, the turn-turn vending machines kept us happy and i spent 9 bucks on such toys alone, haha bernice spent 7 bucks
here's what we got on the last day

i'm so glad it all ended well and now 2nd yr is officially over, im going to catch some sleep now and when i get the photos, i'll blog about vietnam!!! :)

post op day 1

2009-02-11T23:21:00.000-08:00

so yesterday i finally went to get my wisdom tooth out!
and dearest was kind enough to bring along ginseng soup for me to drink but it was too hot so i cldn't drink it before the op
now, i shall talk about the process

i think my dentist is the best one i had so far
and its not because she has the same surname as me, she's Dr Zhou of new life dental surgery
but its cos she reminds me of what we learn in school and that is to explain what you are doing to the patient before touching the patient
before starting, she explained the procedure, how many jabs i'll be getting which is 4 by the way and what i will feel after the jab
so first she cleaned the tooth, put some cream around my right lip and inside, near the tooth area before she gave the jab.
by then i already feel super numb alr
then during the op, i basically feel nothing except the nasty construction site sounds and the grinding of the tooth
and then she split my tooth into half and took out one half at a time
then in 15 mins, i'm done :)

so i bit a gauze and went out, my lip feeling like its hanging out due to the numbness but i checked the mirror it looks fine. no sensation on the cheeks and this will last 3-4 hrs
i took a painkiller before the op alr and my next painkiller dose is 24 hrs ltr so in between if i felt any pain, i've got to rely on good ol panadol
it didn't stop bleeding until about 5pm

and now, i dun feel any pain! really surprising cos i expected myself to be in such great pain that i wldn't be able to study and yet now, i can even go without painkillers and i've stopped mumbling alr
the only bad thing is
i've got to eat soft food and stay away from hot and spicy food
meaning i got to wait for the porridge to be cold then i can start eating and yday i was so hungry. i only had that bowl of porridge for the entire day
but caryn's super nice, she went to geylang at around midnight just to get me the yonghe tau huay that i wanted

thanks bud bud, u're the best la haha

before the tau huay came, i was just telling her that my whole mind is full of food and its so depressing
and now i'm on a liquid-form diet- porridge for both breakfast and lunch and i wonder wad's for dinner
my maid is so smart, she took all the leftover mandarin oranges and made it into a juice for me :)

oh ya i brought home my tooth! haha i wldn't post it here cos it's bloody. haha

thanks vincent, jm, mash, caryn, joyce for your concern :D
love ya all!

flu, flu go away

2009-02-09T06:11:00.000-08:00

jac just sneezed for the zillionth time today

after all that sneezing and sniffing, i wonder why my nose is still on my face
it's so clogged up, i just wanna take it out and wash then put back

i wanna whine NOOoooo this is such a bad timing for me to fall ill
my mom keep saying its cos of all the injustice i do to my body by not sleeping enough but i think its so suay pls. i know i sound so aunty but sighh.
i can't fall ill now, not with my wisdom tooth op in 2 days and attachment in 5 days and i haven't studied for a week alr

im worried cos its outpatient this time, so different and much less routine compared to inpatient. at least inpatient can smoke through. outpatient tt's not possible la
but, somewhere in me tells me that i'll be okay, everything will be okay
i'll just have to push on.

good news for my family! my grandma's is home! no more reunion dinner takeaway for my grandma, just us sitting together and eating as a family.
To start things off, we had a celebratory dinner last night for her home-coming :) she's so good now, it makes me forget about the past

like today, she actually asked me to go orchard with her to get a few stuff that she needs. imagine how eager i was cos 1 month ago, she refused to even step out of the house and now she wants to go to town. so even though i was feeling worse compared to yday, i couldn't turn her down so i spent the day at orchard with her and grandpa and i was really happy.
she's someone really precious and dear to me, even more so now cos i realised how vulnerable she can be behind the tough exterior.

she's so dear to me that when she combed through my hair while talking to me today, her habit btw, i gritted my teeth and held my breath in a gasp but i didn't move away from her and just let her continue combing
people who's ard me knows that no one can touch my hair, much less comb through it without me protesting. i mean, only the pple who permed their hair understands why cos if u do that, the curls will be gone.
and im already so lazy to blow dry every single day alr. it has lost some significant curls and i'm so tempted to straighten it and go straight again.
shud i?

anyways, im looking for a part-time job for my grandma and i need ideas. all i've seen are ads looking for retirees to do packing and flyer distributing. how can i let her do such tough stuff? so someone pls hit me with an idea thanks :)

im off

cny visiting 2

2009-02-03T03:44:00.000-08:00

cny visiting part 2
leon's place

the girls played 'truth or dare' jenga while the guys were watching nadal vs federer
and it was fun cos everyone was spontaneous about the various truth/dares. of cos there are those which makes u go CHEY eg. your greatest fear or like rub your tummy

lamsie choosing the 'truth' tile. she HUM haha

then jes drew this, will be real awkward if there were guys playing haha

i was pretty excited for jo's turn

and she drew the tile "impersonate an animal" and im pretty sure i said HAMMERHEAD SHARK. haha. did we say bird jo? if i rmb correctly the next one jes said was LOHAN

for making her impersonate almost an entire zoo, jolene, full of angst was super excited about mine which was "wear a silly hairstyle for the rest of the game" Aunty Pru actually put the koala on my bun haha. think the side doesnt look as bad as the front. and during my next round, i had to do a dare and the rest got to choose wad i have to do. and guess wad, i had to walk over to the guys in this and go close to alvin and say 'alvin do i look pretty??' haha. it took some courage i tell you

and before the jenga could collapse, we had to leave for zhong's place and when we got there, jes had to return the Dare she owed which is to do a frog jump

me and rach with the lovely view of chinese garden

the idea behind this shot is questionable haha , eating orchids?!
i had a sotong ball in my mouth. will i look like this after my wisdom tooth op?

zhong and alvin

group shot! last yr when we were here, we took this exact shot at this exact location

so today, i spent the entire day at the hosp with grandma and im so glad to say that she's doing really well now! i feel like she's back to normal and i even played mj with her and 2 other patients and we even watched 1/3 of white chicks tgt before she wanted to talk to her other friends. keep this up grandma and u'll be home in no time!! :D

im off!

cny visiting

2009-02-02T08:05:00.000-08:00

part 1
finally i went visiting on sunday!
i've come to realise that visiting is a pretty tiring affair and having a car is a must seriously judging from the places we went to - bedok, tampines, farrer road and then boon lay
just 4 places and i got home with a major headache
fortunately dan gave us a lift home if not just imagine the journey home from boon lay. i think i might just faint

first stop: we went to linear green first for a prayer walk
us girls

leon was busy snapping away while pretending to not look at the camera so we all thought he wasn't taking so we all look like that

the guys

me and lam
we haven't had a nice photo tgt for a long long time

next, leslie's house
it was jes's birthday so we surprised her with a cake!

i was trying to not be in the picture but oops. haha oh wells.

me and sheila in her pretty gold cny top

just look at timmo and leon. hahaha.

my artistic attempt at sheila's 4 inch (i think) nine-westies

lam's attempt

i think mine's nicer lor :P

the owner of those killer heels

and the posers HAHA

us girls and leslie

next, alvin's place

duane promoting the Usqueeze. his expressions was really funny while he was using it

yusheng time, my first this yr

lam looks bored here haha. guess she was cos after this, she got me to do jump shots

this is super nice. if u look closely, our hair looks like it's tied together
and i look really happy, but how to do a jumpshot with a sulky face?!!!

jo and shihui did one too!

and im lovin' the usqueeze too! the shiokness is indescribable. "great for after shopping" says duane. true, very true :D

lam enjoying her short-lived stiff shoulder massage cos we had to leave for zhong's place haha she was so sad

the happy couple, dan and rach

and my first LV moment

and again, i look really happy. it must be the post-exam glow haha

i think LV will be a great friend to rachel don't u think vinc?? hahaha *flashes a wide wide grin

alright gtg before my mom rattles on about the electricity im 'burning'
part 2, zhong's house tmr!

2009-01-31T00:34:00.000-08:00

so, exams are gone, we've gotten our fyp project mates and title and kk starts in 2 weeks.

finally i can do whatever i want for 1 week and i've got a sewing project that i wanna start on but im still lazy though i've the entire day to myself cos my tution boy is still enjoying himself in china. I hope his english is not erased when he gets back. I'll just scream at him and tear him apart with my bare hands
haha. yea right. obviously not, i'm so nice to him, he's crawling up my head already

im so bored. the internet holds no interest to me now and I don't know what else to do. after watching bride wars, i played 7 hand poker with jeremy last night on msn and at first its fun, but after like 10 games, i got bored again.

shopping online is also boring now. cos all the clothes look the same. but shoes on the other hand is getting me interested, just got a 4 1/2 inch pair from f21 and i'm lovin'it :D

went to kiyo's place yday for gambling and i intended to play blackjack but 4 people ps-ed and so, i had to play mj with caryn, yen and kiyo and i dislike mj now cos i suck so i asked kiyo's mum to replace me while i watched death note. kira and L is super smart (yes i know i'm slow, i haven't watched the show before)

Oh and while surfing i came across this where pple tag each other to do this:
1. go to the 4th folder on your computer where you store your images
2. pick the 4th picture in the folder
3. explain the picture

ok mine isn't a picture but its from the day we went to watch vienna boys' choir and this was at esplanade's main atrium. they were having a public ballroom class and anyone could just learn and dance along. think its waltz or something. jiamin and i totally suck haha. we need lessons.

so i'm passing on the tag to.... mok, lam, joyce and jm! :) go post yours!

i've just watched house bunny online and its super bimbo but who can get sick of chick flicks huh?

and vinc says we're gg to get left 4 dead next weekend and he's gg to teach me how to play. yay! jac's gonna be a gamer hahaha

have a great weekend everyone :)

cny day 1

2009-01-26T08:36:00.000-08:00

so like i said, i've got nowhere to go for visiting so i stayed home all day :)
woke up at 11 plus and that makes a sleep of 12 hours for the first time in a long long time.
after sleeping for so long, of course i woke up with a smile
until my mom came in and starting saying that its unbecoming to wake up so late on cny day 1
wad theory is that i wonder

my aunt's family came over as usual for a big dinner and there were alot of laughter and benedict rolling on the floor cos he was laughing so hard. yes, this is how a family should be, no fancy dinner just us getting along harmoniously
just a pity that my grandparents wasn't with us this yr

after dinner, we packed goodies and dinner to bring to cgh for my grandma to eat and we cld tell she's really lonely. we want to get her out of hospital but she just can't. her cpf savings are now going to hospital bills and we don't know how long she'll be in there.

God, pls help my grandma recover. help her hold her negative thoughts captive and help her see things at present and not worry excessively about the future. Amen

after visiting my grandma, sumei called and the 3 of us decided to hang out since coincidentally we're all free!

so with yuxian driving, i brought them to sunset bay!
the place is pretty nice and the sea breeze was just lovely. great place for girls to just chill, hangout and talk

and just nice it's monday so there was live music!

next we attempted jumpshots for the fun of it and it was a failure haha. out of 10, only 1 succeeded but i look like - so im not posting it up haha

sumei says i look like i'm going to take off

and she said to never do that again haha

im really glad to have spent cny day 1 with u guys, cheers to our 10th yr of friendship :D
alright im off to my books!

cny blues

2009-01-24T02:36:00.000-08:00

chinese new yr is in two days and i don't feel the festive mood at all
probably cos of the 2 exams i had yday and one more coming on the 29th, i didn't even get new clothes for cny!
ok i do have new clothes but while checking out the wardrobe, i realised they had something in common - black.
not that im superstitious or anything but some families are, so, i wldn't wanna ruin their traditions or festive mood by wearing something else apart from red/pink- i call them cherry blossom colours
so i wldn't call them new yr clothes

not a big issue anyway since i don't have anywhere to go for visiting too cos my family comes to my house since my mom's the eldest and my grandma's still in the hospital
sigh. i went to see my grandma just now and spent 5 hrs with her just talking to make up for the days i didn't go cos i had to study
seeing her like this makes me sad and she doesn't want to come out from the hospital even if home leave was granted, i tried persuading her and talking to her about stuff but she's still feeling sad as well
all i hope is that she'll rmb all that i've said and recover soon so that our family will be happy again and i hope she'll be happy too
i really missed her a lot this past month

there was a point in time when i felt that my family was falling apart, nothing serious, just a vibe but now its starting to feel okay so im less worried but no one really knows when she'll get back to normal cos she's taking us on a roller coaster as well so we're just keeping positive and praying. telling ourselves that she'll be fine soon.

as im blogging, vincent li is annoying me with many ways possible, playing with my lack of ability to multi-task. I can burst any moment now.

with 2 papers done, i'm proud to say i've finished Eclipse today! haha. reading on the psp makes the book seem thicker cos it seems like i'm reading so fast! i've only got 1 more book left and i'll need to wait for another book to captivate me. i think the only book that's ought to captivate me now is "Neurological Rehabilitation" for my exam next thurs. im cringing at the thought of that

im super jia kang dang according to vinc. i think cheena stuff scares me and i find cny songs absolutely annoying. just imagine me walking through bedok interchange to get to piano with all the chinese songs blasting and uncles shouting nian huo! it drives me nuts, i would run if it wasn't weird

amidst all my rantings about the new yr, im still embracing the holidays and i'm starting off with

dinner at vinc's place and probably go for a spin in his bro's car

gong xi fa cai everyone!! :)

just moping around

2009-01-12T00:27:00.000-08:00

the weekend can be described in one word, hectic.
friday night's not counted since i spent it at work but that itself is quite tiring cos there were many payments to process

my itinery on saturday,
10.45am:
i had piano as usual
11.45am:
then i went to get yellow/orange balloons for the party later at night
1pm:
i met caryn for the dress up event at beauty studio
3.30pm:
rushed back for tuition
5.30pm:
headed to safra for MOK's 21st party!
8.45pm:
rushed down to pal's place for her 21st birthday surprise which was a success! YAY!
then reached home at 12.33am and got locked out for a good 30 mins

Mok's birthday party looked very pretty with pink and white balloons everywhere, purple flowers on the pillars and multi-colour butterflies on the mirror. and the food was nice, loved the sushi and pastries
and baby kieren!! he's so cute pls. i want my photo with him!! haha
and MOK! they got u a PINK watch???? i thought it's supposed to be white! i didn't go with them to buy cos my tuition cldn't change timing if not i would have told them..
anyways, good job on the hand-sewn dresses! for a first attempt, its really not bad :D

Mash's birthday surprise was super funny x100000000
laughter never ceases when i'm around thehappypeople
pictures will do a better job describing how her room looked like after we decorated it so wait up for the photos!

sunday was spent at church, then meatballs and ikea shopping with vinc and then tuition. after which i spent 9 hrs on the comp rushing out CP assignment tt's only 500 words. wonder why i took so long!

anyways, i've been spending alot recently and hiding loads of stuff from my mom cos if she sees it, she'll stop giving me allowance
on sat, i bought a printed romper and pretty black laced dress
then today i just collected a F21 studded belt, UO sheer grey v-neck and gojane brown strappy heels
i'm awaiting my jelly lens for my camera
and another bustier is waiting for payment but i don't think i'm getting them now

my orders with clar's F21 spree is also on hold cos F21 deducted the money but didn't take in orders so my shoe's delayed! is that blessing in disguise?

bummed

2009-01-06T02:13:00.000-08:00

sigh today was such a moody day
maybe its my heightened sensitivity due to pms or something
things just feels so bad
like seriously, how can pple actually master the art of scolding with a smiling face
and where's the courage to scold them back?
at that point of time, it just flew out the window.
people can get so unpredictable, nice then terribly not nice at all
forgive me if i stepped on anyone's toes today, i'm not myself

jiamin says: stay sane ok?

yes i will, i'll try my best to.

little nyonya

ah finally The little nyonya has ended
BUT after watching it, I wanna know more! like where's paul?? where's yuzhu now? u mean all died and yueniang's left? someone enlighten me!

and vincent told me over the phone that robert zhang's alive HAHAHA. don't think i dunno tt's his son la!

and that silly boyfriend said that being with me has changed him.
then there i was thinking wad i could have done to make a change in someone's life you know?
and then he said,
See! I now eat fish! U changed me!

background of this story is that vincent never touches fish cos he can't stand the smell of them. according to him, he only eats processed fish
he doesn't go to long john's cos he said there's this smell
then i think he changed me too, since after knowing him, i've not eaten lj's for like a year

Now, he's busy thinking of a certain fish soup i ate on sunday for lunch. quoting him, he said "wah i'm constantly thinking of the fish soup, think its super nice". plus whenever he comes over, he'll always buy fishball soup.

so yea, i've made such an impact in my sillygoose boyf's life when now, a fish soup dominates his mind and not me

haha no way am i jealous of a fish soup pls

ah crap i've just thrown whatever i've read about ALS out of the window
JAC U PIG! friday's the exam la!
and tmr there's psych project rehearsal
then 2 papers before cny week
too much too much.

oh yea i wanna share this with u
my convo with yuxian

shirlyn - says:

when i saw this, I BURST OUT LAUGHING
first time an outfit can make me laugh out loud literally
then she said

shirlyn - says:
haaha
shirlyn - says:
it looks like a left over cloth
shirlyn - says:

shirlyn - says:

shirlyn - says:

shirlyn - says:

2009-01-03T01:23:00.000-08:00

ahh the first weekend of the year
just another weekend stuck at home with loads to do but i just dun wanna do it
for me, it's cardiopulmonary assigment which i've started a little but have got no mood to finish
by 12th jan when we all hand up our 1000 words, we'll be all pros at asthma and respiratory distress syndrome in kids
and speaking of kids, I got posted to KK for my next attachment!!
yea, i've finally got what i wanted and i'm so excited!
but before this, I've got theory papers to get over and after attachment, *POOF we'll all be in final year

i can't wait for school to be over and then we'll start travelling round the world

joyce mentioned briefly about gg to australia in april! I've been thinking about it the whole morning. Its a great motivation for saving before something else catches my eye. Im looking forward to it joyce! book soon alright

anyways,I was telling vinc that im craving for meatballs just now but he said that his pocket has got a huge hole and told me to stay home and eat instead haha. then he went off to sleep
leaving me with no choice but instant campbell soup for lunch as no one's home to cook for me

its 540pm now and still no additions to my assignment
everything's gonna be ok at the end, i know it

no new yr resolutions this yr

2008-12-31T23:38:00.000-08:00

hello to anyone who still comes here,
and before i fall asleep while typing,
HAPPY 2009!
I've given up on penning down by new yr resolutions this yr cos firstly by dec, it's nowhere to be found and Í'll look back on the year and feel guilty for not fulfilling even 1. I mean come on, is there anyone who keeps their new yr resolutions at the back of their minds while living the next 11 months before a new list is made?

BUT nonetheless, 2009 is a brand new yr and I've got no idea what to expect. I've got to make some changes in my thinking though

anyway, yesterday was by far the best meals I had in a day
First there was lunch cum heritage tour with the best classmates i could ever ask for though caryn, joyce and huey yen were missed..

caryn and joyce, hope u two are feeling better by now,
u two wld love where we went to man..

it was nice lunch and catching up with the rest since 5 weeks of not seeing each other and uluru was such a lovely place. been ages since a waiter placed the napkin on my lap and at such a place, everyone felt abit restrained until we all tasted jiamin's beef with red wine and then the restrain slowly broke off and outbursts followed haha.
photos in facebook if u wanna see the place :)

next it was shopping at dfs and then fancy, romantic dinner with dearest
the place was beautiful, at 7.30pm we were the only 2 in the indoor area and since vincent never liked crowds, he was a happyman
so let the photos do the talking
the indoor area

the pretty outdoor area

then comes my les entrees, the roasted pigeon

i've never tried pigeon meat before so i thought i shall be adventurous and try it and the meat is really tender, only thing it gets more and more raw as i finish the slices

so being so happy, vinc ordered the beef tenderloin steak something something which is undoubtedly fantastic and naturally expensive

desserts!
petit 4

papaya shouffle with mango sherbet ice-cream, absoluttellyy fantastic

desserts makes me oh-so-happy

and..finally, my belated christmas present :)))

*smiles even more*

after dinner, we wanted to watch the fireworks at marina bay but it was so crowded so vinc left to meet his friends and i rushed to church to countdown at smash!
there's truly no place like church, where i've ushered in new yrs since sec 1..
after that is sleepover at duane's with Taboo and Cranium till 5 plus am till i fell asleep while watching Asterix

2008 ended off pretty well i must say
bring on 2009!
cheers to health, good times and good buys :)

it's now week 4 of school and MS pract's on TUES, neuro assignment is due on coming friday and and neuro presentation is on wed (i think)
ah crappers.
im not too worried about neuro assignment though cos its not graded but i'm worried for the other 2! especially MS.
finally got down to practicing today during our tiny 4-6pm break today but i've only done special tests for shoulder.
just 2 more hurdles to 5 weeks at NUH.
my days have been really routine
reach home 9pm, shower, surf ard com for 30 mins before getting down to serious studying and then at latest 1am, I concuss

I need something new to excite me

just like today, for neuro we did serial casting! Seriously, I love anything to do with art and casting was like sculpturing the body part. Undoubtedly the best lesson I've had since school started.

yday was Grandma's bday and she's 68 already! I love her so so much. Though she has now officially retired from work after 40 years of being a nurse, I'm still very proud of my grandma and I hope that she'll be happy. Ever since the op on her knee, she has been very depressed and her worried face makes us all very sad so cheer up ah ma! I'll try my best to spend more time with you and call you as often as possible. I still owe you my birthday letter to you hugs.

the ladies in the family at Singapore Flyer, i love outings like this rather than just shopping at tm every saturday

alright, off to neuro i go

phuket

2008-10-17T09:32:00.000-07:00

hello! it's been quite a while since i've updated cos school started! and it's a habit of mine to leave my blog dormant during school term but first, I've got to upload my 4days 3 nights with vincentlily !!

first day:
our first plane ride together :D no more airasia

we arrived at phuket and was the last to clear immigration cos i dumbly went to fill in the "Departure" card instead of the "arrival" one so we ended up reaching patong really late in the evening too
but what i saw along the way is pretty fascinating! PIGS transported in trucks! now this is something u dun see often here and if u look real close, at the bottom row, the 2nd pig from the right is vomitting from motion sickness. I didn't know pigs have motion sickness too man

since we got to the hotel pretty late, we cldn't do much except to walk around the beach area, eat and then checked out their nightlife

there were girls dancing on bartops, pole dancing, trannys dressed up in cabaret costumes trying to lure angmoh men into their bar. of cus the men were extremely happy. If i wasn't there, vincent wld have been one of the targets cos even me, a girl got appraoched by a man asking if i wanna see "SEXY SHOW TONIGHT".
cldn't take much photos there cos of the moving crowd but u can roughly imagine what it's like. Our clarke quay pretty much lose theirs.

day 2:
we went to phiphi island!
I went prepared with motion sickness pills, sour worm gummies and my boyfriend's shoulder for me to sleep on and the 45 minute journey to this island was totally worth it
just look at how beautiful Maya Bay is

the water looked like a swimming pool!

this was where "The Beach" movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio was filmed and it was closed for 3 months for filming.

this was oso where i saw a tranny tanning topless, I was super stunned.

we then stopped over at monkey island to throw bananas to the monkeys!
they're super pampered la. they don't need to look for food, they just have to wait ard for tourists like us to visit and there'll be bananas!

then we finally stopped for snorkelling! but this was for only 30 minutes

then we went to phiphi don for lunch and these shirts were like 99 baht!

guys will like these kind of shirts which says stuff like "EFF YOU SEE KAY", "7 inches (limp)", "adidogs" etc u get my drift
the only shirt which i liked was one which has the bulls in the Red Bull logo turned upside down and on the shirt it reads "dead bull"
i thought that was funny haha

then we moved on to khai island where we were promised 1hr30mins of snorkelling and tanning

the beach is nice but the waters was disappointing. It's like u go underwater, wait for the cloudy water to clear up and all u see is sand-coloured corals. nothing like the first one or what i imagined it out to be
and i got cut at my butt by the underwater rocks while trying to get a shot of vincent with our underwater camera
it hurt man and i was super scared cos blood was trickling down my leg.
vincent the medic had to stop the bleeding haha

that was the last stop and we went back to hotel to swim

we shopped ard at patong again and decided to go for seafood for our atas dinner!
we spent a substantial amount on it and heres our emptied lobster! it was vincent's first time eating one and we cldn't wait to eat it so we cldn't take a nicer 'before' photo. damn nice :D

bought snacks to feast on as we watched the man u match but they didn't show it in the hotel so we ended up watching MTV instead

do u know heneikken is only 2 bucks there?! haha. but i still don't like it. I left my bottle in the fridge after drinking 1 sip
so that basically concludes 2nd day :)

third day:
we had the hotel's breakfast and vinc was telling me that it'll be super shiok if he had such breakfast everyday- haha, u'll be twice ur size if u ate this everyday

we had time to kill so we went walking round patong again
we need this outside zouk

then at 3pm, we went on winding, puke-inducing long journey to Phuket ATV!!

we started off on flat terrain then went on the bumpy ones and then muddy ones
here's our tour guide showing us the rubber tree

in between our journey, i took a wrong turn and got stucked in the mud for a good 5 minutes HAHA it was super embarrassing please. One guy had to get dirty in the mud to lug me up to dry ground and he asked me to moved from 4th in the line to 1st in the line- directly behind him so i won't lag behind

after more muddy trails we arrived at the beach
just look at how serene it is

this was the last stop for our 1hr tour and we headed back to more muddy trails. I had the muddiest feet out of the whole group of 7

i truly wonder why

last day:
took last minute shots round the hotel and the room we stayed in

and me having chicken strips and cheesy chicken wrap from mcdonalds for lunch

so tt basically concludes phuket and I had a fantastic time with vincent :D

I love you! xoxo

bai

marshmallow petals & chocolate dots

2008-09-30T08:31:00.000-07:00

today+yuxian (aka shirlyn)+ cupcakes!

stayed at home once again to recover from the nasty virus and i'm feeling much much better right now. the doctor said that if I had plenty of rest, getting well by friday won't be a problem YIPPEE! :D

so at 2.15pm when i was feeling the effects of the cough syrup which makes me sleep and gives me this floating feeling (HIGH), yuxian decides to pon school yet again to come over to bake cupcakes!

went to get simple ingredients ard the neighbourhood as we were too lazy to go too far and yuxian is so auntie pls. she said the icing sugar at the ma ma shop is 10 cents cheaper than the other one. HAHAHA don't kill me

we used the basic vanilla cupcake recipe from cupcakerecipes.com and got the icing from some other site. It looks so pretty by the way, pink frosting and all. Jiamin wld love this :)

alright, i'm feeling floaty now, so let the photos take over

just by looking at them, I feel happy already :D
and i'm happier that the frosting can harden after putting them in the fridge

'here's proof that we made them

i look sickly and sleepy. yawn
mok u're right, I'm feeling super domestic now
haha. bai.

run me over

2008-09-28T22:56:00.000-07:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARYN!

yup, U're in the big 2 club, no doubt about it haha

Cheers to another year of me =D, school, happypeopleco and partying

You've got to stop shopping now as it's officially ONE YEAR to chanel 2.55

we'll be shopping buds for life :)

so after 3 days of ushering at F1, i'm left really ill
puffy half-open eyes, red nose and a sore throat that keeps getting worse with my incessant coughing which in turn cause me to have headache

it was quite an exciting night yday at the grandstands as everyone will stand up whenever the engine sounds was near, but being a F1 amateur, I seriously don't know what were they looking for when the cars just zoomed past and I couldn't even make out what car was that.
the engine sounds were what was described as "delicious" but i cldn't keep my excitement up as i felt the effects of the virus in me. I was already sniffing away and even a $10 hotdog from raffles hotel cldn't perk me up
as some know, food always makes me happy

sigh. It's the 29th already meaning school starts in 2 weeks. gosh why does good times have to fly by so quickly, I haven't mastered skating yet and I haven't started on wakeboarding. by the time i get back from thailand, it'll be the 6th and then KL from 7-9th oct and then we're back to studying

for now, I just have to think of getting well before friday. I have to. no more cancelled trips this year

feeling accomplished

2008-09-17T22:08:00.000-07:00

yday i felt like a housewife

I sewed a American Apparel lookalike top

and I baked a toberlone cheesecake with my sis!

i'm super excited at how both turned out

No photos of the top though, might be wearing it out ltr :)

but here's the cake

my Toberlone Chocolate Cheesecake

the crumb-like stuff at the base is the crust! and for now, it looks nice, taste-wise not sure yet cos got to wait fpr mummy to come home then can cut

off to watch boys over flowers! :)

2008-09-15T20:17:00.000-07:00

It has been a extremely happy morning thus far

I set my alarm at 8.30am, sat up then decided to go back to sleep and i dreamt about the exam results till 10am where I finally got up to face reality

AND......

I PASSED EVERYTHING! :) *screams a big YES!

i really should reward myself for pulling my GPA up by 0.2
I've got 5 items I want from Forever21, vincent u should reward me too! hahaha

and after recovering from the initial HIGH

I opened my email, and saw this

my 50 bucks summon has been waived!!!!
double YES!!!

now i can finally enjoy the holidays!
BATAM trip in planning!
joyce u can go??

backdated

2008-09-14T01:24:00.000-07:00

after an odd day at church, i went for tuition and now i'm back home listening to renditions of I'm Lucky by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat
couples and a guitar

is this like the IT couple song now??
if it is, VINCENT LI go and learn the guitar nowww so we can sing too!! haha

i realised i haven't blogged about my birthday and it's a long wait for photobucket to upload 25 photos out of the pile of extremely natural candid shots taken by joce's DSR so here goes

i love the jack-in-the-box they made me :) i'm touched really,u guys cld have done anything else, but u chose to make time to make me this :) i love you!
michael phelps is because I was gushing about him during the olympics and they just have to add the word GLUTTONY in. That was really APT guys hahaha

I took the wheel for the first time that day and I was super scared the night before cos first time out on road already driving my friends..the responsibility's great ok

picked them up from singpost then drove to botanic gardens for our picnic! I don't rmb even going to botanic gardens before
it had been raining non-stop for the past few days but on that day the weather was purrrfect

our favourite game now, taboo!
got to know each other MUCH MUCH better after the game
like we now know what white stuff does susu put in her mouth ;)

my cake from cedele! :) it's extremely YUMMY! my cake for last yr's bday is also from cedele! The 2 large candles confirms my denial that I'm in the BIG TWO club. Peigin and Joyce also included that reminder in their birthday messages haha

pals.

jiamin the hotpinkshorts babe,glowing in the sun

after picnic, we went to dempseys for B&J's where joce caused tricia to flout the rules by driving in the wrong direction
the Siamese drummers says, "we're the up and coming" .

i still can't believe we sat together during orientation

SU wants to be a MERMAID

we tried the mahshimin's face but it went terribly wrong. Just look at the 3 of us in front pls.

we went up to perform with jiamin&i as singers, caryn at the keyboard and trish doing her thang with the firewood

qing had a solo keyboard performance

after dempseys, the rest went home from city hall and it was dinner with vincboy :)
He wanted to bring me to someplace via the CTE(AYE) but I couldn't find where is it so we settled for Manhattan's fish market
he gave me this locket with our photos inside and a bottle full of stars and light-sticks to make it glow
no wonder the silly boy kept saying he needed to buy something every single night before my birthday.

it's funny how we quarreled over parking, directions and $1.26 cashcard value and then later, a 50 bucks parking summon

so it all sums up 5th and 6th sept
with friends and boyfriend such as these, wad else can anyone ask for at the age of twenty?
haha. a classic noel sky of cos

the hols

2008-09-12T09:18:00.000-07:00

the hols aren't exciting in any way so far
it turned out to be exactly the opposite to wad everyone had planned
it was supposed to be a blast, i even told vincent to be prepared for havoc-ness
but in the end, not only did i not go clubbing more than once, bali, phuket and bangkok got cancelled and i have to go back to school for the CPR course. grr. wad a disappointment

finally met up with xian last night with su at starbucks
and one thing she said struck me
she told me that i should try new stuff to make my life more colourful, but why is it always tiring to try new stuff? like the getting down to it is already tiring

today's cpr exam is all God's grace that i made it through smoothly, it wasn't how i expected it to be and I'm really glad it's all over and my whole class passed! all for one and one for all man
batam planning is on the way guys! we have to go somewhere!
and dearest jm, i really hope that u can come :)

after going for lunch, i took a train all the way to far-far-away yew tee to hang out at joce's place and we baked cookies and made jelly! then watched this french movie about choir boys and there's this boy who sings really really well. I now understand how singing can actually make a person cry just by listening.. his voice touches the heart but i've got no idea wad's the title of the movie

alright i gtg, my astig's getting worse by the minute

how is it that i feel this way

2008-09-03T07:45:00.000-07:00

after slacking at home for 2 days straight,
today i went to renci to celebrate Mr bakar's birthday! We made an agreement to celebrate our birthdays together since it's just a day apart

suhui and shuling made us a brownie cake which is so sweet of them :) thanks u two for the time and effort!

He's really happy that we didn't forget our promise

us making a wish, i look more like i'm praying don't i?
Please, let me pass my semestral exams and pull my GPA up pleasseee

the people at renci always makes me happy whenever i visit. That's cos they always seem happy that we're there to visit them and they really appreciate that u took time to go and say hello to them and just chat for awhile
it's nice to feel appreciated sometimes

airasia

2008-09-02T01:51:00.000-07:00

so here i am, munching on cedele's carrot cake and feeling less horrible about my holiday in thailand than i did last night

1 lesson i've learnt is to stay away from airasia, stay far far away
because they have a crappy policy that only protects themselves and there's not a care at all about the customer's interests
Nobody knows anything for sure about what's gonna happen in thailand
all people can do is to try to cancel it for fear of anything's that's going to happen

but airasia's policy is NO REFUND (at all even if they themselves cancel the flight) and they only offer a postpone if I were to cancel the flight
fair enough, I try postponing to October and they asked me to top up another 300 plus dollars for what i assume is that for budget, different day different price

my mom thinks that's ridiculous cos the riot has nothing to do with us anyway so why shud we be forced to postpone and then get penalised by paying 300 bucks?

if they were to cancel the flight cos of airport closure etc, we still can't get a refund but only get our money put into their "account system" which allows u to use it to claim other flights but the money is allowed in there till a certain period of time to claim

i tried to cancel my singapore to phuket then phuket to bangkok flight and replace it with direct flight to bangkok, it's not allowed

I tried to change destination, it's not allowed

I called airasia thrice this morning and for each time I called, I'm put on hold with the annoying music for 30 mins. Twice the person pick up and i had to keep shouting "hello hello HELLO?" cos the person could not hear me and said I was cracking. The 3rd time, finally I got through after an entire morning of calling

U can't speak to the manager cos apparently there's NO manager around to talk to in singapore. To speak with the manager, the person ask me to call MALAYSIA directly. Insanity or what? Pay overseas charges while being put on hold for 30 mins?

oh yea, even if u wanted to change destination if they miraculously offer u a change, airasia only fly to Kuala Lumpur, Pekanbaru (first time i've ever heard of this place), Bangkok and Phuket.

aren't they amazing? Amazingly full of crap

so this is how they earn money huh? by having such a dumb policy where as long as money is with them, there's no way out unless u just forgo the money which is exactly what I intend to do

there is a difference in service attitude between established airlines and budget airline. Silkair gave my mom and sis a full refund with no questions asked cos they understand the situation and were prepared to make losses for unforseen circumstances

even for jetstar asia, they offered hotel rooms to tourists stranded cos of the phuket airport closure. When asked what could airasia offer since they insist on flying? Nothing. not even a bus to bring tourists to bangkok for a flight back

they whole day only thinking of not losing money
only fly with them if u guarantee that nothing will happen

anger

2008-08-30T09:01:00.000-07:00

GRRR I'M SO GOING TO EXPLODE
PREPARE FOR A PISSED OFF ENTRY

I SPECIALLY WENT TO COMEX TWICE TO RESEARCH MORE ABOUT THE LAPTOPS SO THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO PUSH YOUR WAY THROUGH THE CROWDS WHILE BROWSING WITH ME. BUT NOW, I'VE FINALLY DECIDED WAD I WANT, AND YOU, BEING YOUR STUBBORN AND UNNEGOTIABLE SELF, SAID THAT WE'RE NOT GOING TO BUY TMR COS THERE'S THE COUSIN'S BDAY DINNER AT 6.45PM. WHEN I SAID WE CLD GO AT 3.30PM AFTER TUITION AND THEN GO STRAIGHT TO AH YEE'S PLACE, U REFUSED. ONLY GOD KNOWS WHAT'S THE LOGIC BEHIND YOUR THINKING. LIKE HELLO? WE'VE GOT LIKE 3 HOURS TO SPARE AND 1 BOOTH TO GO TO. WHAT'S THE PROBLEM THEN YOU TELL ME?

AND YOU SAID WE NEVER DISCUSSED ABOUT GOING ON SUNDAY
FOR GOODNESS SAKE, WHY DON'T YOU JUST ADMIT YOU FORGOT?

WHAT'S UP WITH MOTHERS AND THEIR PRIDE, SERIOUSLY
WHAT A WASTE OF MY TIME

rugby

2008-08-29T09:34:00.000-07:00

just got back from the midnight rugby 7s at sajc

there was nothing for me to do cos the team I was assigned to, the Blacks Magic were safe and sound with no injuries so there were no assessment or injury forms to write. So i spent the time cringing at blood, trying to understand rugby and taking random photos. I've only got 3 here cos the others are in joce's dsr

i like how the team look - united, focused and cool

team SMU huddling up before the game

rugby players, i salute you
how do you get injured so badly and yet continue with the sport i wonder.
where do you find the courage to continue running even when u know there are 3 opponents running towards you to make sure you're down on the ground.
how did you feel when u're down on the field injured while the rest of the team have to continue with the game irregardless

I would never be a rugby player but tmr i'm trying something new with qing and I'm really excited!

back later.

sumei's bday celebration

2008-08-28T02:08:00.000-07:00

so yesterday, I went to celebrate sumei's bday at kenny's with zhongwei and it's my first time seeing zhong in like 3 years!
her strawberry short cake is so pretty

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAREST
cheers to 9 years of friendship :)

We can't seem to not talk about secondary school, what zhong refers to as THAT phase in her life cos it's filled with hilarious memories.. like we used to like F4,

be yourself day where we looked like crap but we thought we looked super cool,

the days where Mr Tan keeps asking me stand during lesson and finally, I had to move my table out of the class and say the pledge/national anthem outside of class,

Mr John Lim who had this thing against me and suggested that I be newscaster since I like to talk and added that newscasters nowadays do not have to be pretty. the nerve of him

How I had to go to that certain reflection classroom to sew my uniform tighter cos my mom bought the big waist uniform instead of the regular one

How much we enjoyed acting the scenes in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice for Lit and because we were waiting for yuxian's scene to end, we dressed up as waitresses in her scene just to kill time (note: there's no waitresses in the original scene)

see how fun secondary school was! I wanna go back to being fourteen cos sec 2 days were by far, the best time of my life

after late late lunch, we were walking around when this guy came up to us and offered to curl my hair, being nice, I agreed and being even nicer, I bought the hair curler his push cart was promoting

José Eber 25mm curling iron

for 130 bucks *gasp
it's selling for 109.90 USD here

i'm nuts
i seriously am
but for all that many descriptions of the product, 130 bucks is worth it i guessss

haha guess who bought it too, none other than the birthday girl/ fellow impulse buyer while zhongwei watched on thinking that we do this all the time

after that hefty purchase, we went home then I met qing,jm,caryn,yen and trish for mambo! haven't been there since school started and it was awesome la. and jm made an impression with the bouncer haha.
lurvee the holidays :)

so

2008-08-26T00:33:00.000-07:00

jiamin asks: so how's life now (while we sit at mac's yday)
me: It's just the way it should be

exactly it is.

after a tough july and even tougher august, I've finished all the practical exams, got my driving license, finished my piano exam and finlly, the end-of-semester exams
It's been a long way, with loads of roaring, screaming and tears and I got through it with my friends, holidays and getting a degree in curtin in my mind but now, enough of all these, cos It's the last 6-week HOLIDAYS!

Caryn noticed that whenever there's holidays i'll do the usual stuff
1. decorate my house
2. sew something
3. find shows to watch
4. change the layout
5. start blogging

wells, it's only during hols that my interests can surface isn't it? It'll be suicide if i decided to sew a dress in the midst of a semester and blogging about schoolterm would be boring and depressing

anyways so yday I was supposed to meet carynpang at 11 to sign the contract for the F1 job, but the girl was still choosing clothes at 10.45! so we had to go at their 2-5pm slot instead while mash, qing and jm went to collect their nike race pack..

while waiting for caryn, I had some Me time where I went to popular to change an assessment book for some sewing accessories, arab street to get gorgeous japanese suede fabric and haji lane to check out house of japan! I saw this itsjustwhatiwanted vest and it's like 50 bucks! the 2 racks of vests were all 50 bucks.. i think it's way too much for a secondhand and dusty rack of vests. I don't have a sensitive nose but i actually sneezed when i left to go direct caryn to haji lane.. it must've have been real dusty

hanged ard for awhile and we met mash,caryn,jm and qing to watch death racer! really unlike me to watch this kind of violent and gruesome movie but it was exciting! jm was sitting at the edge of the seat la haha.. i still think for a lady, Henessy is a big-time psycho
after the movie, we went to centrepoint for dinner then went shopping where jm and qing bought stuff at zara then to mac's to chill and lastly to borders

I love post exam activities
jm just said gossip girl is THE life
haha, yea babe, exactly it is

J for Joyful

2008-07-12T09:00:00.000-07:00

this is gonna be a happy happy post cos...
i've finally got my driving license! :)
the joy is indescribable, uncontainable and wadeverelse-able
i wanted to jump and scream YAY! and add on a couple of punching fists into the air and saying yes at the same time
i bet i was happier than those who passed 1st time today
cos 1 of them was saying that I seem very excited haha

i have to say thanks to those who've been supporting me all the way since i started lessons since ______ (it's embarrassing!)

Thank you God for being faithful and answering my prayers, You are indeed sovereign..
All glory and praise goes to God really, no credits to me.. He was at the wheel today
and He is simply full of grace for me

Thank you to the dearest boyfriend whom I have vented alot of frustration on over the whole drving thing, who took in alot of yelling, scolding and crying from me and yet not getting angry in return. Instead, you're the one who'll encourage me and believe in me whenever i feel lousy about myself. It's as if the whole world can look down on me, but to you, i'm different.. thanks for being there for me throughout :) xoxo

Thank you to sumei, pang, qing, jm, mash & trish for also supporting me and telling me that I can do it and thanks for tolerating all my complains and for your prayers as well.. U guys are important people in my life whom i can share my joy with.. what would things now be like without u all i wonder.. i love you guys!

Thanks to the girls from colt for your prayers and sorry i didn't tell u my test date beforehand, it was a rushed thing. U girls were there for me too :) u're loved by me

and of cos my mum who paid for my test today and said it was worth it haha.

after driving, i rushed down for piano and i was extremely late. didn't practice much this week so that pissed my teacher off cos i played like i've never played the 3 pieces before in my whole life. this kind of scoldings i take seriously cos i so wanna do well in this cos i enjoy music and playing but just don't have the time for some serious playing.. sighh.. it's just gonna be a mad rush to 29 july

next i went for my first tuition where i teach sec 2 maths, rushed down to marina square to collect the runner's pack for shape fun and then watched ms videos with caryn at esplanade library
we destressed by browsing through the topshop/zara sale and I got something from zara to reward myself :)
then further stress was released while playing Bishi Bashi haha. we were almost tempted to go k box and sing our lungs out but we didn't

one thing i regret is that we missed fireworks! :(
other than that, i'm all smiles :))

leaning towards the negative

2008-07-02T08:09:00.000-07:00

i dun wanna talk about how yday was spent
no, i'm not going to whine or complain about epa anymore.. it shall stop today
cos i feel real lousy about myself

during ms pract, i'm like how sian-ed as she went through the different mobilizations of the small yet significant bones in the foot. I just didn't want to practice. I simply just want the lesson to end asap. I cannot imagine the pract exam in 4 weeks. It feels like impending doom you know?
like u know it's coming but u're so lost
and you try to be better at it, but u're still not good enough

i need my friends so much when it comes to studies cos i need so much of their help. and they're so nice by helping me along, helping me get through icas, practs and presentations.. such that i don't feel that left behind but i can't be relying on my friends all the time can i?
when out in the hospital working, there's bound to be politics so u have to rely on yourself cos people will talk. but how is that i can't rely on myself when others can?

it feels awful, really.

get august over and done with

2008-06-29T08:12:00.000-07:00

school's started for 2 weeks so that explains the lack of entries
so anyways, school's been filled with projects and electrical stimulation plus the perk was that we did suctioning! that is to insert a tube into each other via the nose and mouth so suck out the phelgm when patients can't cough.. yes it sounds terrible! I was not looking forward to that lesson at all and i skipped lunch in case i gagged out all i ate but now i think it's not that bad.. not worth skipping lunch for

one thing i discovered about myself, I have hypersensitive gag reflex
physio has this way of helping me grit my teeth and jump through the mind obstacles i have
like i was scared of cadavers, and i emerged alright
i was embarrassed of having to remove my top for cp practicals and now it feels normal to do it
i cannot imagine having a tube going down my mouth/nose and it turned out better than i expected though it was qing's first time doing it

and i accidentally caused caryn to gag a few times (oops sorry bud, not on purpose!)

my weekend in a flash
yday i had my piano mock exam and it was not smooth but eventful.. God, please don't let me fail my mock please, if not i gotta retake again :(
for my last piece, i had a whole bar of wrong notes, 2 scales played wrongly, an aural question answered wrongly
sight-reading was surprisingly easy
and my actual test date is usually in august but it got pushed forward to 29th July.

after mock, i went out with thecousin for some shopping and my plan to just accompany her to shop and not shop for my own totally failed..i'm glad we went out for that bonding session though :)
then at night, it was LOTR on channel 5 with vinc at home and the boy went home and left me all alone watching p.s. i love you.. lucky u weren't there vinc, u wld have seen me in a mess, crying and all

today i went to jiamin and mash's db comp at bedok reservoir and everyone looks so fit and zai, doing jumping jacks and all.. u guys were very synchronized and i'm happy that i specially woke up early to catch u guys in action! next was cell outing at sentosa.. i saw no eye candy, just BAD scenery.. some guys were playing volleyball in their disgusting underwear.. captain ball was fun though the sand was scorching hot due to the scorching sun and i'm left with a racer back tanline haha caryn pang said "tt's ugly lo"

some other dates
my tp test date is on 12th july and i haven't gone for lessons since april!
i'm dead meat! somebody take the test for me la, get it over and done with

there's epa pract on tues and loads more practs coming up, written exams is in august

now you know why august should be over and done with and on comes sept, the month of fun, holidays and my birthday!

i want that remote on the Click! movie

lizards part 2

2008-06-08T06:48:00.000-07:00

A LIZARD DROPPED ON MY MAID'S HEAD!!!!
WAHAHAHAHA

I laugh until i sound like I'm crying
Just 5 minutes after i came home, i asked my maid to get me - which was hung outside so she went and just when she came in, the lizard drop on her head!

It could have been ME!

The lizard disappeared and now has appeared again!!!
and OH NO my maid is using my havaiianas to KILL IT! She's busy whacking it with MY slippers. gosh please. that's gross! I've got lizard remnants on my slippers now.. that's one more reason why i need a new pair of slippers

oh and guess wad! I went for dragonboat training just now!
awesommmeeee =) i love you qing and caryn!

indescribable

2008-06-06T07:20:00.000-07:00

omg can i just say i'm TERRIFIED of lizards!!!!
recently i had alot of encounters with lizards that i simply can't ignore their existence!

there's always this lizard lurking behind the RC door during the time when me and kailun will be working.. then ard 10pm when we knock off, he'll always go back to the back of the noticeboard as if he knows the door is going to be closed.. we found him real cute so we gave it a name called lenny (no offence to lennys out there). we always say hi to lenny when we came for work then bye to lenny when we leave.. pardon our mad behavior
But recently he got much bigger, i seriously wonder what has he been eating and so we named him leonard (again no offence to leonards out there.. cus the progression makes sense you know? lenny to leonard).. but that's not the point. He no longer disappear behind the noticeboard anymore! instead he stays on the wall, close to the floor making it being extremely close to our feet! and he's growing to be a weird shade of greyish brown and it makes my hair stand

this is still tolerable

but yday, When i was opening the rc door, i saw that there's another lizard at the opposite wall! I totally freaked out. This lizard is EXTREMELY GROSS I TELL YOU. It was hanging at the corner edge of the wall in a BACK-FLIP position (no joke ok! I couldn't have imagined that). And we both thought it was dead. until it started moving! but u know wad? in its BACK-FLIP position, it had only 2 back legs in contact with the wall and the other 2 front legs were dangling off! ACROBAT LIZARD lei!!!
just imagine my horror. If you can't imagine how the lizard looks like after my description, I'm sure it seems real disgusting by now.

and today, as i was packing my books, i decided to move my clarkson book to the top shelf and there was this pencil box which was in the way. So after i shoved the book in, i wanted to move the pencil box away.. GUESS WAD! there was a lizard on it looking at ME! We were like FACE to FACE.. omg.. as i relive that moment i feel my pulse racing alr. Then when i moved the pencil box, It ducked away real fast which left me screaming and running at a speed never before

I officially declare that I HATE LIZARDS. I have a phobia towards them now. I'm scanning every wall in my block as I make my way home from RC.. Did i mention that a lizard almost dropped on me too??? I don't even wanna describe it. I could have jumped off the building if it really did drop on me

My heart is still racing. I'm really grossed out

head pounding since 3

2008-06-02T08:02:00.000-07:00

my blog seems dead BOOOOO
but i'm finally back after close to a whole month of no entries
my mum asked that day, why don't u be like those bloggers (like dawn yang and xiaxue) who earns as they blog? seriously if everyone can channel that much traffic to their blogs, we would all be full-time bloggers by now and there'll be less degree-chasing to do

speaking of studies, today i declare myself a champion. and so is caryn and huey yen .. we are all champions! we shot down research methods ica, cardiopulmonary prac exam and comms presentation all in a day! leaving my brain super hyperactive now and my head pounding like crazy. I think it's a sign that I haven't used my brain this much for a long long time!
i'm suffering from lack of sleep now cus of the late night we had on saturday cus of the Adidas Sundown marathon we helped out at. when i told some people about me going for it, they were like WHOA U'RE RUNNING A MARATHON? yes i would gladly say "ya why wad's wrong with that with my *marathonsaremythang* kinda tone" but when they find out the minimum individual distance to cover (42km), i would have exposed myself haha so i admitted that i was helping out..

some photos of saturday
my energy only lasted till 2 plus am cus i got so pissed off when there was 6 mosquito bites on me! I could have lasted to the end if not for the bites plus there were weird bugs crawling around in the sand which made my hair stand

and it was nurul's 21st birthday!!

and what do we get for a Man U fan?

i was telling susu that since we're at changi, we won't be able to see the sunset cus the sun sets in the west right?? she said it was possible and she made me run to the bridge to see this

and she was right! isn't it simply gorgeous. Singapore that small huh! we can see the sunset from the east!

ok i gtg, the room's spinning right now
mokie mokmok, prawning fugly photos i send u via msn k?? see ya soon!! :)

voice on the radio

2008-05-04T05:48:00.000-07:00

marie digby-voice on the radio

and why isn't she famous?

hello world!
i've got rosy pink cheeks now, the small bit of skin above my lips is burning now and i imagine that i've got darker and it's all due to cell outing at the beach!
jes planned the games, and it was so fun =) she's our awesome cell leader and she dodged getting wet by hanging on to the bag with all our valuables- smart move. or else she'll be totally soaked through. haha.

so we played photohunt and a trivia question thingy where we had to link hands and step towards the sea if we got any questions wrong. shihui's and my anat knowledge came into play when questions like what's the biggest bone in the body came up haha. in photohunt, we had to fulfill some tasks and one was to take a photo with a topless hunk. once i get the photos, i'll post it and we can roll in laughter.

while we were there, i saw people jet-skiing! that's on top of my wanna do list now. I WANNA JET-SKI! somebody, take me jet-skiing soon! (that means u vincentli). just thinking of it makes me not wanna study today and enjoy the last bit of my weekend.

oh and another thing to get excited about, though it's not confirmed, i'm crossing my fingers and i hope i'll be able to go to KL for 2 days before gg to kuantan for church camp! i'm not shopping anymore till i get to KL :) the 7 items in my f21 shopping bag is the last i'll shop *grins widely at eeyore/porky

mummy shockingly said yes to sydney study trip but no one's going from the class is going BOO. how can any school trip be fun and boisterous without taipeigang & co? I rather go batam if it's with them =) see how much i love u guys??? haha. we have to have a get together soon apart from school and i'm looking forward to the shape run and our steamboat!

ending off, despite the shocking stuff i said last night, thanks for loving me the same vinc :)

Say It again for me
Cuz I love the way it feels
When you are tellin' me that I'm
The only one who blows your mind
Say It again for me
It's like the whole world stops to listen
When you tell me you're in love

say it again

2008-04-25T08:57:00.000-07:00

hello! i'm back after a month of no posts
does anyone come here anymore???? haha

let's start off with how much i love school now and how much i love the people in my class. school's really fun now especially when we're learning taping and bandaging during ms pract and playing ALOT during neuro pract.

and i did something cool- i went for dance audition! haha. was pretty hesitant at the end, but su gave me a huge push and we went for it. let's just say i had a great deal of fun and i dun really care about the audition results ;)
my quads are burning now and i'm going up and down stairs like an ah ma

oh ya today i went for physio, and freda said that the muscles ard my shoulder are really tight and i'm gg to hunch and look down on the floor when i grow old. NOOoooooo! i wanna be a cool ah ma!!!! with no hunchback! i have to force myself to do those exercises if i wanna be cool!

anyway speaking about ah ma.. today jiamin was damn funny!
u know that song that goes " tell me where u get your body from, tell me where you get your body from"
then the girl singer will say " i got it from my mama x2"
jiamin actually said " i got it from my ah ma, i got it from my ah ma"
LOL! i think it's super funny!
u made my day sexayye =)

i love my classmates! esp the taipei gang..u guys make school awesome =) even stats elective is FUN
here's some photos of us in taipei (i know it's late late late)

i love these shots at the lover's bridge

just looking at all the photos we took makes me wanna laugh.. we had an awesome time in Taipei! so tell me, where's our next destination?? my mom says i can go to sydney!!!! =)

to dearest eeyore (now porky),
happy 6th monthsary!!
though we don't really meet up often but i'm glad we're still going strong and u're truly the most understanding boyfriend ever! :)
we're going out tmr! for more shopping and more soccer ;)

xoxo

stop and stare

2008-03-25T07:54:00.000-07:00

hello everyone!!
the past few weeks has been fantastic! =)
i love holidays!!!

just to sum up wad i've been doing the past few weeks
so prepare for a longggg entry

first up, i went to TAIPEI!! with qing,tric,caryn,jiamin & mahshimin..
they're such awesome & fun company!!! i had so much fun, laughter and more laughter when we were there! The shopping & food was great like the last time i went and thinking about it gets me all excited again! There were many funny stuff that happened , which i rather not mention ;) but all in all, I love the taipei gang!
pictures are not yet compiled so i'll blog a whole entry about Taipei another day =)

next, I'm happy that i got to meet mok mok last week!
it's been like soooooo long since i met her and mok it was fun catching up with u over korean BBQ! and it's not my fault if u gain weight arrr.. haha.. i finally passed her her bday present... seriously i feel extremely bad for giving my close friend her present so late and i developed a photo i wanna give her in front of her sumore! *smacks head it was pretty awkward when the photo fell out and i hurriedly put it in a frame..
this was the photo

mok u're right..i'm super insincere la! This will not happen again i promise! Glad u liked it though =)

I'm happy that i finally found wad kind of person i really am - i'm more of an arts person compared to science which is interesting cus i've been a science student all my life..
i just find it hard to believe what i can do wld be enough for me to succeed in the design field.. i mean it's like i dun draw spectacularly so i think i dun really have what it takes tt's why i chose to remain in the safer field which is science..but this hols, i unleased the hidden interest by re-decorating my living room!

i painted the walls red, hung up some frames, put in a couch and now it looks much better! only thing the sofa hasn't been changed yet cus we haven't found a nice one & i can't decide what colour to get it in.. pictures will be up as soon as i'm happy with the outcome! let's call this project#1.. i had alot of help from mummy & dearest who went on a few trips with me to ikea until i recently became a friends member! need to head there again soon...

project#2 was to paint my sis a pair of canvas shoes
here it is!

i'm pretty happy that i completed it and didn't leave it half-done (1 of my many habits)

project#3

it's actually a postcard i got on Taipei which teaches u how to cut it to have a pop up effect

then on saturday, i had work once again for singtel redpac flyer distribution and i got to work with joyce and maricar!

the person in charge told me we were giving out lollipops! i got all excited thinking that it'll be those chupa chup lollies but no, the lollipop was actually this

then after that, dearest came and we went to timbre for early 5th monthsary celebration =) he surprised me that day by going all the way from clementi to tampines to get 2 cheesecakes from cafe cartel and then took a bus all the way to rc to give them to me.. even my mom was touched =)) i love you!!

alrites i shall have an abrupt end to my entry cus mummy's yelling that "i should outgrow blogging" and i start clinicals at renci at the unearthly time of 8:30am tommorrow! wish me all the best thank you =0

if u're a kiss, i'll be a hug

2008-03-04T23:20:00.000-08:00

omg. i can't believe how bored i am
i've got nothing to do and i dun wanna pick up my books just yet
so the desktop's been basically my companion for the past 2 days of this week! and today's wednesday
i've finished watching gossip girl, juno, 2 eps of ANTM season 10, the 1 ep of they kiss again which is posted once every week and a couple of clips from America's best dance crew

here's kaba modern from the America's best dance crew and i think they're awesome!

watching them made me smile
haha yea i'm THAT bored

i'm thinking of forcing myself to go downstairs for a little breather cus if i were to head out to the shops I would end up spending again something i shudn't do with the trip just 6 days away. The last time i went out, i blew 62 bucks on my green striped bikini.. which i'm really happy cus it looks great! =)

now plan A for today was to take vee down to vivocity to get some stuffing out of him cus vinc&i thinks he's really fat and heavy now but gg so far alone really sucks so i've decided to wait for saturday instead.
plus it's raining now, so plan B, which is to go down to parkway with eeyore to shop for zhong's present is also ruined

that leaves the plan C- staying at home and slacking ard while vee and eeyore watches

dang
i'm glad there's mambo tonight =)

29 feb 2008

2008-03-01T00:38:00.000-08:00

this week has been totally relaxing
it just shows how much i can really slack till i can't stand it anymore and start finding something to do

surprisingly, i ended up finding stuff to do really quickly
i painted shihui's shoes
i baked cupcakes with yuxian
i went to have meatballs and chicken wings with yuxian
and celebrated her bday at miss u

now, i've got more shoes to paint, and more meet ups with friends!
i can't wait for next week, next next week, next next next week and it stops there
cus after that it's 3 weeks of attachment

oh ya caryn u owe me JUNO! haven't seen u all weeek! haha
let's go to cathay to watch it. i'm broke. bet u are too until ur pay comes haha

i'm really glad i went down to ikea tt day to actualise my big plan for our living room. i've always got this plans in my mind that i'll visualise how the room's gg to look but i never found the time/energy to really get down to it. so now seeing how my wall looks like, i feel happy that I, jaclyn chow did that though it's just the small wall separating my room and the study

will post a photo of my completed living room after i'm done
shall do take a photo of the BEFORE soon

V got me angry last night but i'm glad we're okay now
u have gossip girl to thank man

i spent the entire leap day with him and i'm truly shocked at how much he can eat
he won me hands down
we had mac delivery in the morning and he order a meal plus an additional filet o fish
then for lunch, he had beef kway teow and some of my tomyum soup at thai express and then we walked over to taka crystal jade where he ordered zha jiang mian, 3 xiaolongbao and 4 dumplings from the dumpling soup
after paying the bill, he said he felt like eating takopachi

i said NO to that
haha. he lost his appetite a few weeks ago and now i'm sure he's trying to compensate for it so that explains his monstrous appetite
silly him. =)

alright

happy v day!
yes i know.. back-back-backdated entry but still i wanna blog bout vday!!
brought vinc to a surprise place - bungalow tapas for dinner and it turned out to be perfect =)
dearest didn't spoil his surprise this time unlike *ahem his birthday and in case you were wondering why wasn't he the one who planned our date, it's because we take turns every month to plan where we're gonna go for monthsary etc and this month's my turn! and guess wad? bud bud caryn also took her bf to the same place as me wahaha.

on our way home i was just pointing at all the girls who had roses in their hands and telling him "see! even that uncle gave the aunty flowers!! =(" then he said "tt's why u dun have flowers, cus u're not an aunty"
grr.. where's the romance! haha but that sentence made me laugh

but actually, i told him not to get me flowers haha
cus mummy will throw them all away once she see flies

so here's us on our first valentine's day =)

happy cny!

2008-02-07T04:45:00.000-08:00

hello!
it's finally cny!! is it me or does time pass much faster now? fast forward 6 months and i'll be *gasp twen-TY.. will tagging along with my family and collecting ang baos be weird next yr? my uncle was just saying that i'm so old already and asked me if i still dare to tag along with my aunty to collect ang baos. i was thinking hey why not? i'm still a grand-daughter in a 3 generation family so i'm still qualified isn't it..although i'm the oldest among all my cousins and sis
all along, i wished for an older sibling, better still, an older brother..i just think it'll be cool to hear him talk bout his girlfriends and other stuff haha

but apparently those who i know have older brothers don't seem to think the way i do i wonder why

moving to how i spent the first day of the new yr.
i stayed home the entire day cus everyone including my gramps came over so i dun need to visit..
anw mummy was just commenting about those chinese songs played on tv and squirming at how everything is so chi-na during cny..

no wonder i'm the way i am - i hardly speak mandarin cus everyone say it sounds weird..even vincent can't take it, reading i-weekly makes me stressed and i dun like cny songs.. the english version of gong xi gong xi i heard the other day amused me..the lyrics doesn't even make sense..haha

geez mummy's yelling at me to get to the piano. thought u aren't supposed to yell at anyone during the new year..

alright then, happy new yr everyone! =)
more hongbaos to come!!

i needed to laugh

2008-01-28T00:35:00.000-08:00

i chanced upon this
and hope it'll momentarily take away the stress from my fellow pt mates

One day, Char Siew Pau and Maggi mee had a big fight.

Maggi mee beat Char Siew Pau up until it had bruises on its pau body.

Char Siew Pau lost in the fight and went back to tell all the paus family; kaya pau, tau sa pau, curry pau, and etc.

So together?.. all paus went to find maggi mee for revenge.

On the way... they met Spaghetti?... so all the paus ran to Spaghetti and beat the hell up on Spaghetti that Spaghetti can't say a word,Spaghetti then screamed...
"WHAT DID I DO? I don't even know you all"???.
Then Char Siew Pau say??..
"HEH! MAGGI MEE! Don't think I can't recognize you after you do REBONDING!"

LOL. i burst out laughing =D

ok fine. caryn just said she heard this one before
so here's one more!

To impress his date,
the young man took her to a very chic Italian restaurant.

After sipping some fine wine, he picked up the menu and ordered.

"We'll have the Giuseppe Spomdalucci," he said.

"Sorry, sir," said the waiter. "That's the owner."

and the question u shudn't ask sam
GIRL : Did you miss me while I was away??
BOY : Were you away??

haha. back to ORIF

Varina

2008-01-24T08:50:00.000-08:00

oh my g***. ferragamo's varina is simple g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s. nv have i seen a shoe in urban that made me go wow. ok except for those shoes with the RED sole but this, it just screams

"U got to have it jac, BUY ME".

yes i will buy u darling. just give me some time, i'll get the moolahs in a hundreddd years

no no tt's exaggeration. if i save like all my pay every month, i can get them in wha-la less than 3 months!
tt means no shopping at all for 3 months. tt's achievable ain't it?

now i've got caryn falling in love with those shoes too haha.
we shall eat grass for 3 months and wear those shoes everyday as if tt's a school shoe hahaha

i can just imagine mummy screaming at me after i happily skip home with my varina's. then i'll calmly tell her it's fake. haha. yea right like she'll buy my crap. but then again what does she know anyway? she threw away her beautiful light brown coloured ferragamo's last yr. at tt point, i was the one who wanted to scream

ok this is beginning to sound like a bimbo entry

moving on,
oh wait! it's past midnight!
so happy 3rd monthsary darling!
there's only one word to describe what u've been and what u've done for me
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G
u're exactly how i imagined a boyfriend to be

i love you, my chocolateman

cus only u will do this with me

=)))

a blank mind at all practicals

2008-01-23T02:17:00.000-08:00

tmr's yet another anatomy practical and yes, i'm doing something guilty by being online and blogging.
should i say i had enough and throw in the towel?
i know i've said it again and again. umpteen times. annoying the hell out of my classmates (i presume), but i really dunno if i shud go on. i can envision qing singing 'should i stay or should i go'. i've been through this so many times, running it over and over again in my head but still judging from circumstances, the answer is pretty much a GO

u noe wad? now, checking results is much easier. just have to scroll down the class list, look for the lowest score (for eg. my striking F for physiology prac) and there it is! my admission no.
i've done this for the past 4 prac/tests we had out of 5 this sem

so i've developed a certain immunity towards such results. i'm not affected at all.

su says no, i shouldn't be immune. i shud use it as a motivation. i know tt's wad i'm supposed to do thanks darling but in my current state, tt's near impossible

to make matters worse, i've gotten the flu and an elevated body temperature

i shall move on to what i did last saturday
i finally got to go out with xian since the last time i saw her at her guzheng concert and we went to have ice-cream!

the babe who cldn't keep her eyes on the road

us having our superduper good hershey's chocolate mixed with oreo's!

then she brought me to a place where i wld classify under ULU to eat dried ban mian
taken while waiting for the fooddddddd

we went home and then went out to watch 27 dresses!
it was awesome =)
it was not the usual chick flick kind of story but u roughly know who will end up with who so it's just watching the HOW they get together at the end.
which is sweettt
i'll give it 4 popcorns

and him,

unlimited popcorns! haha

see i told u i was immune
or is it like what we learnt in psychology - defence mechanisms
which are repression and denial

i just forgot the action of the platysma

level 20

2008-01-09T20:33:00.000-08:00

stayed over at caryn's last night and it was fun!
got totally drenched on the way to her place as it was raining like there's no tomorrow but i enjoyed the feeling of running in the rain, stepping on huge puddles which made my jeans wet and fighting for the umbrella with vinc who found my enjoyment abit warped

as it was flooding, we had to cab down to her place and vinc's extremely sweet. i felt like some lead in a korean drama wahaha

then we got to her place and i assume vinc the pro in taxi surcharges at what-nots cabbed home while me and caryn watched tv. i was planning to study the next day so i brought all my anat and physio books. but guess what we did the moment we woke up? we played diner dash!!! oh man i really suck at games. seriously. i only can clear the 1st few levels then it was on to caryn to finish the rest. total we spent almost 10 hours playing it until i had to leave.

i'm never gg to spend so long on the com again. it makes me giddy.
thanks bud bud for letting me stay over and let me see the side of u which no one has ever seen before hahahaha. no more diner dash for a long long time
alrites. i'm gg to study now!

like jiamin, i shall believe in self-prophesy
jac's a genius, jac's super smart

from the inside out

2008-01-08T02:54:00.001-08:00

my psp is back
and now i'm hooked on bomberman and diner dash!
oh no
if i don't exercise self-control
it's byebye to physiology prac

i'm no racist

2008-01-06T04:26:00.000-08:00

something amusing happened to me today
in the shuttle bus going to parkway, this china guy asked me for directions to walk from parkway to ecp
in my limited mandarin obviously i cldn't possibly direct him so i replied wo bu zhi dao
then next he asked me if i'm from china (zhong guo ren).. then i said i wasn't and then he said that us singaporeans speak perfect chinese such that he mistook me for someone from china

i seriously wanted to burst out laughing
hey pple, my mandarin is biao zun ok
lol

anyways i'm so glad that vinc came to church today! even though it means me sitting through 2 services and halfway falling asleep in the ending part of the 1st svc but it's ok cus i'm oh-so-happy =)

apollo char kway teow was a reward
haha
off to set my priorities right

another round of xiaolongbao

2008-01-05T06:57:00.000-08:00

today i finally met mokmok after so long!!!
went ard town to get stuff for her 1 yr anniversary gift and also collect my psp and send my hp for repair. yay i finally got my psp back!! and tmr i'll be able to get my hp =)

2008-01-03T19:57:00.000-08:00

here's how i started my new yr
i woke up and my lessthan1monthold w910i blackout-ed twice and then decide that it will no longer send smses out by flashing the words "operation failed"

my psp is still at sony wisma, awaiting repair

and my com had a virus-attack and had to be repaired and mummy's not paying for mike to backup all my files

seriously wad a way to start my new yr
Thank God my com's fixed now and thanks to jean, mike tranferred our files for free
according to him, she looked so sad when he said all the files will be gone
those puppy-dog eyes must have worked eh? haha

and now to recap the past week
last saturday
susu invited the class to lunch at her place and there was where kids took centrestage
joan, jerome and justin

just look at the innocence.it's an illusion! they attacked me with the yellow ball justin is holding and plotted how to kill me after i had lunch. grr. too bad i cldn't bear to throw the ball at them or else, i obviously, will come out victorious

then comes jerome
the extremely gentle boy with a knack for sony ericsson hps
totally unlike justin (the terror haha)

and here's jeff
who cries more then he smiles
i'm sure i was like him when i was a baby cus my mum said i was a crybaby

thanks susu for the nice lunch and the present! =)) we love Godiva dark chocolates!

ltr that night was brewerkz with aaron, kwee and jeremy

and i finally had my turkish ice-cream
jeremy and kwee was trying to psycho me and aaron to go on the new xtreme swing but they cldn't cus i'm damn scared of heights =x

smash 2007 was not too bad
going for it made me recall how me and sumei wld want to avoid smash last time cus of the games and also the greek goddess dress theme we did last smash
and now we chose to go for smash cus it wld be more happening than watchnight

they were supposed to be my bouncers wahaha

after smash we stayed over at duane's place and spongebob on xbox was fun!
me and lam were hopeless in the other car racing game, sending our gallardo ramming into poles, shops and mountains
duane's bro is so nice that he gave up his room and bed for us girls to sleep on
and duane had to sleep on a sofa downstairs
i think his whole family are uber nice pple
thanks alot! =)

on new yr's day, mummy woke me up at 9 to get me home to prepare for lunch with her and vincent. so i had to drag myself home after barely 3 hrs of sleep and then she said lunch change to dinner instead.. grrr... so me and vinc went cycling at ecp!!

my bike was hot pink !

then we had dinner and the mouse there was so cute!

a pity they dun sell it though

alrites i'm off
contemplating to go school or not

i sense awkwardness between us. is there something wrong cus we just dun seem that close anymore

yay like finally but guess wad? the hols just started and i'm b-r-o-k-e
shucksss
something happened last wk that made me wake up

i'm turning into a shopaholic/spendaholic.
when i updated my passbook, i had 2 pages of withdrawals (*gasp)
like how in the world cld i have spent that much in 20 days!!
caryn pangpang say it's no surprise
and my mom and grandma just kept laughing when i told them about my *ahem financial status
like wad in the world is so amusing! ur daughter/grand-daughter here is suffering from a crisis!

but then again, grandma wasn't that bad cus she brought us for dim sum at dintaifung!!!

muumy says i'm a true cantonese cus i love dimsum unlike a certain jeanettechowjiemin who was busy yanking off the tendons on the stewed beef and who never tasted xiaolongbao in her entire life

yday vincent stayed over and he threw banana right smack on my face in the morning!
it was a hard smack ok mr honghong but i'm glad i got my sweet revenge =) i got to throw pillows at him and he's not allowed to dodge
here's proof that he's a big bully

honghong u better bring me to somewhere nice this christmas to atone for this
haha

and today, i helped out at church to tie balloons for tmr's Community Service Day!
man the balloons stink and my fingers were trembling after all that but for God, the stinky hands and trembling fingers are all worth it
i mean just look at the balloons

there were way more colours then this but i think they look so nice! they remind me of grapes!

i was super tempted to jump and land in the sea of balloons but many predicted that all i'll feel is the cold hard floor when i land

we had to make bunches of 12 balloons and daniel got lost in 1 of them haha

sheila's and my darling kristle is so strong she can piggyback me
but as u can see, i'm clinging on for dear life cus i'm scared she'll drop me

needless to say, she thrashed me at arm-wrestling
3 secs was all it took

sighh

i'm now a sony ericsson convertor

2007-12-11T07:43:00.000-08:00

i'm back to blog!!
i'm in an exceptional good mood now since anat prac and physio ica is over!

kine prac was super fun. we had to see how well we cld use the chopstick to transfer wet and dry pasta from one bowl to the other and we had to alternate betw metal and plastic chopsticks.

we were divided into 4 groups
positive feedback
negative feedback
nonsense feedback
and no feedback
this is to see how a person's performance is impacted by these factors

my grp (caryn,qing,tricia,yen and me) got the nonsense feedback option and it just requires u to say anything under the sun, neither positive nor negative
and this were wad came out

"relax one cornARR and eat prata"
"oh vinccey baby"
"imagine my hand running up ur neck" (this sounds super sleazy)
"jac u're in ZOUK now, show us some moves!"
"the pasta is damn sexayy"
etc.

seriously it was super hilarious. haha. best prac ever

town-ed after school today with dear ol' buddy caryn =)
i've got loads of stuff to get tmr when i go out with mummy and grandma
and we're gg to din tai fung to satisfy my craving for xiaolongbao!!!

yayness

2007-11-27T23:52:00.000-08:00

man, it's already bad enough that i've got to bury my head in anatomy
now, there's physiology ica coming just 5 days after anat prac and i haven't touched a single chapter of physiology since school started

i dread this part of school life now. the part where papers are squeezed together and those higher up don't care if we perform/fail.. he just wants to "get it done and over with"
hey we're the ones studying and mugging our butts off so when we ask to postpone it, it just shows that we're obviously not ready for it so why push us?

please let it be over soon
i want my so-called life back

phish food

2007-11-15T05:27:00.000-08:00

gosh i feel damn damn lousy/pissed off/low/bad mood
i dun just hate, i loathe driving so much now
i admit i'm a terribly lousy driver with extremely bad judgement
everytime i'm in that car, u can sense the tension
i just go quiet. speaking less than a sentence to my instructor
those who know me will sense something's wrong with me when i go quiet
even my instructor dun dare to joke with me

i'm just damn exhausted from all tt is in my life now
my schoolwork is terribly lagging, i'm still at week 2 for anatomy and i'm clueless for the rest
my driving is taking away all my energy i have left at the end of the day
my work is taking up all my nights
and i'm broke (because of driving)

i so made a wrong decision

i dun feel like talking to anyone at all

ilovetoeat

2007-11-08T18:42:00.000-08:00

i love no-school days.
i dun have to be forced to wake up
i dun have to wait for bus 45 which comes in intervals of THIRTY minutes
i dun have to make up for lost sleep on the bus
i dun have to look forward to the word "summary" during lectures

and i get to spend the whole day with jeanette, something i haven't done in a long long time
i woke her up and practiced my stan chart rub-down on her and now she's complaining that she can't get the baby oil off her legs haha

zouk was uber packed on wed so it wasn't as fun as expected and we were literally vibrating on the spot at phuture cus there wasn't space to move/dance but at the end the music was good so it wasn't that bad
and miss kangsumei didn't stick to our original foolproof plan! so only caryn came over to sleep and we slept till ard 4.

honestly caryn u look funny with specs haha and u were really dead to the world
pls dun repeat last night again. it was really scary

had dinner with V at ikea and finally we had meatballs and chicken wing!
this was on top of the sausage mcmuffin meal at lido, 1 plate of pasta and 2 bowls of mee soto i had with caryn at home.. gosh my appetite's getting bigger and bigger!! so much for my diet plan to limit my appetite
after ikea, he brought me to miss u cafe and the ambience was really nice
the dessert i had was fantastic.. crepe with banana filling and chocolate ice-cream with some grapes.
the codfish nuggets were good too =)

man i love food
and i'm having beef kway teow later!! yay =)

i love this song

2007-11-03T23:18:00.001-07:00

like what maricar predicted, i totally broke my shopping ban so i shall start a new one this week. cus i need to start saving for bangkok this december!!! though it's not confirmed yet, i figured it would be a good motivation to start adding to my finances and to stop spending on unneccessary stuff..

caryn let's da pao food to school frm tmr onwards and we got to start exercising.. judging from how much we usually eat, i wouldn't be surprised if we've got potential clogged arteries somewhere in our thin frame..

ok i shall set the example for you.. after yday's dinner, i went home, got on the gym bike thing and started cycling till my quads hurt so bad.. only thing i was on that thing for around 15 mins.. but hey time isn't everything.. i mean u can be on it the whole day and cycle at the speed of 3km/h and u dun feel anything.. i'm sure i was going at 20km/hr hahahaha..nah..i just know it's fast enough for my quads to start "screaming".

today's my grandma's birthday and i'm so glad i saw her and grandpa at church today
i love her oh so much. she's like a role model to me

my sis and the gigantic cake from secret recipe

i got scolded cus i asked the guy there to decorate the cake
but it turned out really pretty though
standing there waiting for him to put the "petals" of the flower on the cake almost gave me a heart attack. we were seriously in a rush and my mum was yelling over the hp and he down there still choosing the colour

and now for my grandparents.. my grandpa is so cute.. i just love talking to him cus he just gets to the point within a few words and not nag all the time

and my grandma, u can't imagine how much she loves us. really. i'm extremely proud to call her my ah ma
and she says she's proud of me too!!
haha over what i'm not sure
but i'm sure she sees something special in me =)

alrites time to work my brain with kinesiology

2007-11-02T08:43:00.000-07:00

i just knew i would get picked to wear gloves for anatomy today and so did qing and caryn.. by the time i reached school, half of what i studied last night was already gone so i wld say i wasn't prepared so naturally, i was damn scared..

so halfway through identifying all the wrong muscles, i got scolded cus my jacket sleeve was touching the cadaver. damn.. how cld i have not realised? really dumb i must say.. arghh..thankfully, my mood was not affected throughout the day cus i felt really bad in the morning

after school we went to have a surprise celebration for tricia at the fish&co glass house.. it's the first time i've ever stepped into the place and yes i know, i must be living in a hole my entire life
so anyway, i was given the task of bringing tricia around and stalling for time so we went to play daytona.. till now i still can't believe i actually lost to caryn.. dun worry caryn, vincent says he's gonna take revenge for me

day after being a mascot

2007-10-15T08:37:00.000-07:00

what it takes to be a mascot
1. adapt to the uniform ( regardless of whether it makes u look like a jellyfish )
2. walk around and mingle with people u don't know ( regardless of any language barrier eg. gurkas)
3. be willing to stand under the scorching heat ( cus do u see mascots standing in the shade??)
4. be accustomed to stares and comments ( like "can u grant me a wish??" )
5. PRAY for rain

the scorching sun on sunday left my face, shoulders and neck totally roasted.
i'm itching like a monkey AGAIN all thanks to the sexy spaghett costume.
but for the moolahs, it's WORTH IT
thanks to cuijing for this wonderful job. apart from the burnt face, it's an unforgettable and fun experience =)

here's one of the stuff we do
we POSE for photosssss!

just look at my costume, weixiang calls it the tentacles
everytime i stand up, i fall back down cus i never fail to step on a whole bunch of them

and this guy, he made my heart race

by far, the cutest boy i have ever seen
he even made xuan chong's ( the pirate) heart race too haha
alrites tt's it for now,
forget my last post cus i was ultra moody about my sunburnts
pls go off by wednesdayyy =(
night.

i'm totally nuts

2007-10-11T21:27:00.000-07:00

jolene will love this dog

wednesday
finally met up with mok after a long long while!

thanks mok, andrew, mark for the necklace =)

out with my gramps

2007-10-09T22:29:00.000-07:00

yday jean and i had lunch with our dearest grandparents!!

we cldn't go far cus grandpa's having a backache which can't be cured cus there's only a 50% chance of the pain going away if he were to undergo surgery. apparently even physiotherapy won't help ( WAD?!) cus he said he has 2 thorns in his lumbar-sacral area.. ok i've got no idea wad that is but i wish i could help him in some way..
but grandpa's still super cool. i'm beginning to suspect my vain-ness is inherited from him

the hat i'm wearing,

it belongs to him

he just bought it from esprit the other day cus he recently adopted the botak look

my grandpa must have looked like this when he was wooing my grandma when they were young

and here's jean showing how much she loves ice-cream. she blatantly told me i spoilt her photo cus i happen to be in the background humph

they're truly the best grandparents i can ever have and i wldn't trade them for anyone else in the world <3

just a note
i, jaclyn chow, banned myself from shopping for 40 days
this time it's FOR REAL

bloat with me

2007-10-05T10:19:00.000-07:00

just got back from FOOD TRAIL!!!!!!! and it was fun fun fun!
i seriously didn't know i could eat like THAT much
i never fail to amaze myself haha

me, tricia, su and caryn were the literal heavy-weights during the 11 hrs we were out. we stayed throughout the whole trail while mash,qing,jocelyn had to leave halfway and peigin and emilie joined us ltr at night.
mash thinks i need to exercise now, at this unearthly hour
sorry mash, i can't find the drive u have towards exercise. i can't exercise ANYTIME
haha

so this was where we went
1000hrs Novena
Balastier - Tau Sar Piah
Thomson - Prata
Beach Road (army market) - Fondue, ice cream, glutinous rice balls, char kway teow
Katong - Laksa
Maxwell Food Centre - Dough Fritters and sweet potato balls
Adam Road - Nasi Lemak, Prawn Mee, Island Creamery
Geylang - Beef Kway Teow, Dou Jiang You Tiao, Dim Sum, cereal chicken

we had planned to end the trail at chomp chomp but we didn't make it there. i felt like a ball already. and the beef kway teow at geylang is NICE!!! =)

the food! oh glorious food. i know these dun look exactly appetizing but trust me, looks can be deceiving

us looking ultra happy with all the food.

at army market where we had fondue! i'm sure these two wanted to leave the chocolate on for the rest of the day

at kallang where the shops were brimming with heritage and elaborate, pretty tiles

and at maxwell, we get to cook the hum chim pang!!

and i finally went to island cremery!! pear sake wasn't as nice as i expected, black forest had rum in it ( much to the delight of susu i'm sure ;) ) but the mud pie was the BOMB. super super nice

off we went to adam road and then a long bus ride to geylang for beef kway teow and tau hway with you tiao. emilie cldn't handle the long you tiao hahaha

and last but not least, HAPPY belated BIRTHDAY CARYN!!! haha. u weren't serious in believing that we'll just give u the ugliest pez in the world and vodka blackcurrent were u?? haha knew u'll like the dress =) u've been a really great friend and the best shopping buddy (and it's not cus u're the only one *innocent grin*) in class!
we shall continue to be "honest with each other" cus we're friends. haha

alrites, my eyes are like 2 slits now
night!

i hate horror/thrillers

2007-10-02T19:39:00.000-07:00

last night i had a dream of the texas chainsaw massacre fella chasing after me in my primary school. In my dream, i was a african boy and i seeked refuge in a blonde girl's house whom i met when i was trying to blend into the choir so that the fella won't spot me. I did a really good job hiding from him by running through this small room tt's like a bookstore and places which i dun recall anymore. funny how the bookstore seem so familiar. like i've dreamt about it since dunno when. anyway, i was at the blonde girl's home where i told her all about the fella and we were yelling at her mom to close the door so he wldn't find me. guess wad, he did find me but he didn't bring his chainsaw (maybe it's hidden somewhere). he came in and greeted her mom and even sat down to have dinner ( wad?!) and he had a really handsome face which must belong to some poor guy who got killed by him according to the original movie.
i woke up after seeing his face

this is the reason why i can't/don't want/hate to watch horror/thrillers. i have a photographic memory when it comes to images and a very active imagination. and i only watched 30 mins of the show at the movie marathon at susu's place last friday.

hmm.

sugar spice and everything nice

2007-09-24T03:40:00.000-07:00

uploading the taiwan photos are taking so long!!
no wonder i took this long to finally get to updating after rotting away the past few days. someone pls hire me for 3 weeks! i need to replenish my finances! to plan for a next trip! hahaha.
tt day caryn was just saying tt no one wld want to go Japan with her. i was thinking about that and i seriously don't mind going to Japan! i mean like no matter wad in my whole life i think i should at least go there once all i think i have to do is just eat less and save! but when i brought it up to mom, it was a prompt answer that burst all my bubbles - NO. she thinks i'm mad now

i miss taiwan like so much and jes said that i'm currently suffering from withdrawal symptoms and i should lay off shopping for awhile when i told her i just bought a top from flea at substation. sighh. shoppping is no longer fun over here
man, i sound like an airhead

u noe wad even if i dun get a job this 3 weeks, i'm going to enrich myself. read loads of books, use my sewing machine, learn some cooking, learn some basic marketing skills and do up su's and my small online business
there, my 3 weeks do have a purpose afterall

i can't wait for movie marathon with pt02 this friday!! though i'm really confused as to where and wad time. just no horror flicks pls! i have a weak heart and a highly imaginative mind.

mok! let's meet up soon! i'm free now till 15th oct. i wanna pass u ur bag!! =)
sumei: when are we doing our photo shoot??
mini carcar: good luck for ur interview on thurs! find out more about PEGs out there and basic functions can le. appear like u're a electronic expert

and finally photos are up! not too many considering we had about 400 shots
tt's the thing about 2 persons going overseas tgt. it's either i take u, u take me, we attempt to take us tgt with our heads enlarged or if we're lucky some kind soul will take a shot for us

speaking about taiwan, i regretted not buying the black heels from shih lin and a skinny tie from their flea!! arghh. i want a striped one but i can't seem to find them now. bleah

tt's all for now! =)

ousted.

2007-09-18T09:16:00.000-07:00

I'M BACKKKKKK!
my gosh i definitely didn't expect us to literally shop till we drop during our 6 days there. but knowing me, it seems that no one is surprised that i left Singapore with 1 luggage and came back with 4. hmm. i was quite surprised at myself actually.

it's funny how we would have trouble walking through the hotel doors at the end of every single night cus of all the many bags we were carrying, how we cld shop ANYWHERE even at the underground mall at taipei main station, how we would laugh throughout the day and end up with a heavy heart as we reflect on how much we spent, how we'll quarrel almost every morning about going for buffet breakfast, how we clutched a small umbrella and braved the very heavy rain to do last min shopping at shihlin, how we became pro at taking the mrt(jie yun) there and did 2 good deeds, how atrocious our spoken chinese is, how we looked when we emerged through the hotel lift carrrying 6 bags each and all the other nonsensical things we did

all these amaze me.

you can't imagine how much we missed home on the last day we were at taipei. the typhoon news just added to our fears of our flight being cancelled and thank God, we made it back safely today =)
God was with us throughout the entire trip even through the drama we went through over there and He knows i got to learn things in life the hard way.
words can't describe the experience of a lifetime. God is truly Good!

waiting for su to send me the pictures during the trip! hrd there's about 300+ shots
=O
here's 1 for now

now we're back, we're missin' shihlin

dear sumei, thanks for not leaving me behind and not blaming me for anything. much love. to show how grateful i am, i'll sing more of the song 'umbrella' to you k? =D

kana

2007-09-11T01:22:00.000-07:00

i'm going to TAIPEI tmr!! i'm so so so excited yet my luggage isn't packed yet.
to everyone, u will be missed!! (given the fact that i'll only be seeing sumei for 6x24 hours in a foreign land wahaha) and i hope i'll be missed as well!!! =)

do pray for me and su when we're there cus thinking that it's only me and her is getting me a little scared but still God is GOOD so i know he'll be with us too! but still do pray

dear pt pple, hope we'll meet up again when i get back! i'm thinking of a class outing on mooncake festival where we can all go bunk in at susu's house, watch all the chick flicks and horror flicks we want, eat loads of mooncakes and chinese tea while gazing at the round moon and play with candles and firecrackers!
look at how detailed my plan is but i haven't talked to anyone about this esp susu haha. susu pls read this when i'm in taipei!

my sunburnt's really bad. it's so itchy that i feel like a monkey now =(
do u think being tan will up my sporty image? wahaha. maybe i'll be like mahshimin then people will start asking me what sports i play and will no longer guess that i play the ping pong.. maybe they'll ask me if i play rugby hahaha
still, i'm consoled cus there's snowskin in class who's a joke like me ;)

i really got to pack my bag soon before my mum screams at me but still i have to end off with this

nakatsu's mine.

haha
bye!
i'll be back on the 17th at 1340 hrs =)

past 2 weeks have been awesome! prepare yourself for a never-ending entry

clinicals was unexpectedly FUN, got to hang out with my besties at canale, got to have dinner with s21 at vivo and just got back from chalet at sentosa! plus one more forbidden place which only a selected few know about ;)

i think our clinicals at ttsh couldn't be at a better timing. we got to spent PT day and be in a captain ball competition with the rest of the PTs against other depts. in our case, we were against operating theatre, ED and the prosthetics. sure wish i cld have photos of my sportiness here but it's not available yet so here's the rest for now

the whole orthopedic team

us with our cool clinicians

and with the first clinicians we tagged along with

i wanna go back to ttsh for clinicals again..=(
oh wells there's always ktv coming up with ringo and his cantopop gang to look forward to =)
btw TEAM PHYSIO u rock!! congrats on 2nd place! and PHYSIO HURRICANE, it was great playing with u guys!

pt class chalet at sentosa!
the 3 of us was left to entertain ourselves waiting for the rest to come

i got caryn to do the "maricar" pose with me
she's beginning to take over the throne of being the class joke

photos of us in that forbidden place are with the rest and last time i heard, the photos and VIDEO was so tabloid worthy that they are planning to use it to blackmail me and caryn haha.

2nd day was spent at siloso playing beach volleyball, frisbee and teaching caryn how to cycle.. she managed to learn in like 1 hour!! when it was time for bbq, all of us were already sticky and sweatyy. the bbq wasn't like the others i've been before. this one had us displaying our inner gymnast, us fighting off dementia with mahjong, us building up our intellect with bridge and yum seng-ing to heneikken.. there was even crayfish too! seriously it's great fun!

i think no chalet is complete without TWISTER! where it's impossible for anyone to look G-L-A-M

the class surprised me by bringing out a cake and singing happy birthday while i was tricked by cerise into poking satay sticks into cuttlefish balls haha
a big thank you to my dearest classmates! =) though i must have looked extremely ridiculous when i was clapping and singing along wondering who u guys were singing to
=)
to joce: the cake from cedele is super yummy! thanks for bringing it all the way to sentosa :)
to qing and yen: thanks for going all the way back to vivo to get my present! i'm gg to wear it to taipei wahaha
to the rest of the class: one word sums all i have to say, i LOVE u all! =) it was a pleasant surprise

i wish chalet wldn't end so fast though i'm sure everyone inc me was already missing their bed and i got terribly sunburnt with 3 different tan lines on me- 2 verticals lines from my spaghett top, 2 diagonal lines from my bikini and the most hated - one vertical PATCH on my back cus of my low ponytail.. all the pain is so not worth it, i think i wanna grow an aloe vera plant on my shoulders and back

i'm so glad i met mokmok, andrew, ching, shan, amanda, paul, mark, daryl, longhui and ryan for dinner during the weekend as well!! haven't see some of them for so long!!

mok i miss u alr haha. dun worry i'll find u a black bag =)

the girls in matching bright colours, my grey dress looked so unique that it was out of place

i have an entire folder of the photos of the two of you in my com and mok's always on the right side haha

s21 peeps: thanks for coming! miss you loads!
mok: thanks for organising the outing!! see u soon!! =) lovelove

sighh if only every week was like the past 2 weeks. i would then have no complains about life anymore.
alrites!!! i'm the happy happy girl and i've got an itinery to plan! off i go!

i need more than 24 hrs a day

2007-09-01T04:20:00.000-07:00

hello!
2 weeks of clinical at ttsh. gosh it's harder than i imagined.
the past week have been the ultimate test of my strength and fitness. honestly i wld give myself a 4/10. my muscles are pretty under-used so it explains my extra efforts in pushing a tilt-table and carrying a reebok step.. i so wun admit i'm weak although my pal mahshimin who's with me for clinicals, never fail to remind me that i'm a joke.

ttsh is quite a cool place i must say. i didn't know they kept the old ttsh as the communicable disease centre and walking through it gives me a nostalgic feeling..i've always had a thing for such stuff.. like i spent almost an hr at the heritage centre at ttsh (they even have a heritage centre =0) looking at the old equipment they used last time.

at the start of clinicals, i promised myself that i'll be very very serious about this but i guess the playful self is beginning to surface bit by bit.. i really have to control myself before i get comments about unprofessionalism which me and mash recently got for having the habit of laughing by ourselves.

talking about prefessionalism, my mom said that once i'm in uniform, i'm professional. i think it's more of i have to be professional. when facing secretions and amputations, i've always imagined it to be quite disturbing but when i see all these now, i dun really see it in that way anymore..

i really wld like to go on about the many cases we saw but soon no one wld know wad i'm talking about. medicine i think is a language of its own. and abbreviations they use makes it even worse

right now i'm just praying for fantastic time-management. there's so much i got to do in this week:

1. draft of presentation to the physio dept must be in on monday
2. captain's ball training on monday after work
3. captain's ball competition with fellow pts in ttsh on tues
4. PT day on wed
5. queue up for donuts and do up cards for pt dept on thurs
6. individual presentation to nyp on friday and finally dinner with mok and andrew!! =)
7. plan for upcoming class chalet
8. plan for taipei!

i wanna bury my head in the sand and hide from all these.

step test

2007-08-23T09:11:00.000-07:00

bourne ultimatum today and matt damon is like so cool.. i shall not gush over him cus huey yen loudly declared that he's hers after the movie at jubilee.
but it's really nice though i dun rmb a single thing from the first 2 movies
and finally the hols are here!! i've got a whole to-do list drawn up but just can't get down to it..
funny how the mind works. during exams, u'll tell yourself i'll do this this and this after exams or i wld do this if not for the dumb exams.. but when exams are finally over, suddenly u dun feel like doing what u wanna do before.. like the drive's lost.
just like the feeling of wanting something u dun have or can't get

i'm so tired i think i'm going nuts

i think i really suck at driving. and my instructor isn't doing me any good cus she ruins my self-belief when she keeps shouting at me and saying that i'm slow and dun have good judgement. i do admit i'm bad at multi-tasking hence i suck at manual but today's really bad cus she was saying how good the student before me is.. telling me stuff like how she lost her dad and now works as a tutor to pay for her uni fees and what a good girl she is.. like come on, do i need to noe all these while i'm half asleep at 10am listening to her loud voice at every single mistake i make?

worst, she keeps saying i wun pass
last straw of the day.

2007-08-19T01:38:00.000-07:00

just got back from lunch with dare and the rain's making me all moody
i thought alot about stuff on the way home and just felt so.. hmm i can't really find the word to describe it.. it's like suppressed, uncontented and with loads of questions together..
sighh. i just find that all i think about these days is meaningless.
when we did bible study today about the carnal self, and the part about finding life aimless and inability to understand himself. it just struck me cus tt's the way i've been feeling..
i really need to turn back.. i can't go on like this..

and i wonder what is it going to be like in combined cell,something just feels kinda odd..

i need some cheering up. maybe ben and jerry's will do the trick..
dublin mudslide and chocolate fudge brownie pleaassseee

anatomy is overrrrrrrr

2007-08-17T08:22:00.003-07:00

i got dragged down to the bball court by jean so i spent the whole of yday morning playing bball.
2 reasons why i went down
1. there weren't anyone playing
2. i needed some form of exercise before the ambitious stan chart 10km run/walk

so we headed down with may too and initially it was just throwing the ball into what i feel is a lousy basket and me running round in circles whenever the ball got in..
but there was this 2 little girls sitting across the court watching us play so after some time i decided to ask them to play with us.. so they joined us and suggested we play full court. just 5 of us playing full court.. i was like whhaaatttt

i went with the flow of running to and fro which must have greatly improved my shuttle run and then 2 more boys came and joined us.. then 1 of them called his friend and another 2 pro boys came and joined us.. soon there was 10 of us with me towering over the rest. naturally i was made captain of 1 of the teams..

seriously i still can't believe i played bball with primary school kids and to think that 3 of them are so so much better than me.. height is just redundant when u can't exactly shoot.. 2 of the boys who look like small frys were like from school team and they were awe-dropping pro. one of them is already a true blue ah beng.

since the guys were so pro and outnumbered us girls, the girls gradually fell out to the spectators bench to watch much to the delight of the ah beng who referred to us as cha bors
to cut the whole long story short, the 2 little girls with us followed us home when we went back and so we had to invite them in and entertain them with uno stacko despite me having anatomy today

today the 2 of them, luping and adrene came again and disrupted my intense revision.. if i fail, it's all their fault.

i never felt old in my life until yday.. the di dis and all thought i was in sec 3 or 4 cus i was wearing jean's ilovetemasek shirt.. imagine their faces when i said i finished jc.. their faces spelt the word "old".

guess what i feel much better since my last post. it didn't affect me like i thought it would. yay

arghh

2007-08-15T00:36:00.000-07:00

i hardly get pissed or rather i don't stay pissed at something for more than a day but today i've just had it
why make me go down all the way for something when in the end i didn't get it
i asked and you told me that it's already CONFIRMED and now, i didn't even get it
i told you i'm having exams and yet i made a 1hr journey, no 2 hrs in total, although i felt that it was totally redundant and see now what.
all i get is time wasted which i could have used to study anatomy
i feel so shitty and cheated
arghh

and my tee from the80stees spree is like lost in the mail? it's been mailed like 2 weeks ago and obviously Singapore's not that big for it to take so long to arrive right? and now what u the organiser is telling me that it's not in your control to make sure it arrives.. then whose control isit under anyway? me? when i paid everything up on time and waited like ever so patiently without flaring up. and now i've seriously had it.. i dun think i can pay for something and then shrug it off when it goes missing in the mail.

everything totally sucks.

rag day at padang

2007-08-13T01:38:00.000-07:00

went to watch dearest mok's performance at rag day!
mok u look pretty cute in ur performance! =) although we were at the wrong side of the stage..
and we took this photo to show ya what great friends we are. we stood under the sweltering heat waiting for u to perform and tried not to look like we're melting

we couldn't see much from where we stood so we had to mingle with the science fac pple though we were clearly extra and when they cheered we wish we cld fade into the sea of their blue fac shirts

i said i'm hottt when they asked cus i was wearing 2 layers of clothes
then they said shirnnie is hotter cus she was wearing 3 layers

after shifting around trying to get the best view, mok finally came on stage

after the whole thing, we went to raffles city to cool down and back to padang agn to meet mok

guess who i met too? kellyyy!!
my two favourite people from sde

mok had to go back to nus while we went to cafecartel for dinner and clearly these 2 are made for brokeback singapore wahaha

it was truly a happy day =)
mok i was expecting to have dinner with u!! let's have dinner soon k? after my dreaded exams

i got to get back to finding out what is lung volume

2007-08-10T02:30:00.000-07:00

going to school ruined my friday
i don't have the mood for anything now
not even peppermint dark chocolates

sighh. i feel like i'm stuck. i've been me for the past 18 years and i still don't know what exactly do i like, how would i expect someone else to know what jaclyn is suited for?
everyone close to me pls bear with my nonsense for a while more till i figure out what i want for my life.

yesterday and today is just so so great!!! i love how things are now. the feeling after completing 4 tests just feels so good. i refuse to think of the 3 more major ones coming up. for now,

happy national day!!!!

had alot of good food today and i seriously should start exercising.. i wonder how long is there till my metabolic rate slows down and can no longer manage my huge appetite. soon i'll start turning into a balloon..

i realise we look more and more different as we grow
and yes i know she's obviously athletic and active cus of her tan

chanced upon cherie's pan and the chocolate mousse is my present love
dear ol mumsies

pirated fantasy

wahaha jean's so going to kill me for this

and i'm off to the parade!
the fellow patriots

this is jolene when she's still wide awake

me,jes(the one who made watching ndp live possible) and the skyline that Singapore's most proud of

this yr's parade was pretty different and i love*3 it! i dun understand how it can get jolene bored and sleepy though when i felt so captivated throughout the parade. but i managed to wake her up when she got my hair stuck to the I LOVE AKIRA fan..
if i had bought hair insurance i wld have gotten a substantial payout
but, life is fair.. for getting my hair stuck, her akira fan is now dysfunctional haha.
i love fireworks but the inner budding environmentalist in me cringe at the pollution it gives off (jolene's proud of me right?? )

finished the day at missclaritycafe
