:: week ::

woweeee..

ok let me start with last sunday.. went to Holland V after lunch with cell grp to check out what huixiang is filming n how i can help out.. surprised to c yongcheng there.. chatted with him n help to cut paper money out of newspapers and peilin came to chat with us.. hx didn't tell us how we can help so we were just busy chatting n eating.. =P

i guess the main highlight was dinner.. ;) peilin n i were bored cuz yongcheng left.. acted as drunk girls then we decided to have dinner at Eskibar. i didn't expect that place to be cold.... haha. there was a sign outside that says Fish n Fries for $2.90... wooo.. so went in to check out. then there was another sign inside that says Housepours/beers one for one. i ordered the fish n chips n Erdinger beer.. it's v nice! chatted with peilin abt lotsa things.. haha.. the bar provides jackets becuz like its name suggests, that place is for Eskimos. went home on taxi.

monday..

went to sch to do work, but turns out the comp labs are being used for Studio project.. sigh.. thank God i met Hairol at the Blk M.. got an application cd from him then went home to do my work. hehe the work is supposed to be submitted last friday.

bia all the way till evening time..

tuesday

went to sch to submit work n have lunch with swee yi.. had Fantastic beef burger at mac... ohh the onions suck. spent the whole time picking them out.

went to Thai Embassy to take a walk.. n collect info for the thailand trip in may.

went home.. quite tired.. just completed a Nancy Drew pc game n was starting a new one. hehe.. very fun.. i was just starting when chihiro came.. she said she'll explain y she came when she arrives. at that moment i wasn't feeling very hospitable. told her i gotta leave around 6 to go for Psalmist quarterly Discipleship training. i asked my dad to takeaway dinner for me since he was coming back at 6 but in the end i waited till 6.45 then i called him n discovered that he was taking his own sweet time. i was so angry i cried. very very angry.

i was trying hard to think where is Fairfield Methodist Church.. i know it's near maxwell, but where is maxwell? in the end i alighted at Outram.. walked until i got lost then i found the place. was quite late already. anyway, i learnt a lot from the training.. but i forgot to bring a paper n pen to note down.. my memory fails me easily..

thank God esther drove.. got a lift from her.

wed

i dunno what i was doing la. cooked noodles at 3+pm then i realise i was supposed to be at Queensway at 4pm.. so i went out as soon as i finished my noodles. shopped for a present for bec with kwek n belly.. then kwek drove us to west mall.. waited at the foodcourt for bec to arrive.. had dinner then waited for yun to arrive before we went to Swensen's. ordered an ice cream cake n they also ordered other stuff to share. long time nv come out n meet them actually.. then they mentioned hao n i dunno y i was smiling.. haha.. after tt we went home.

thur

uh i think i was playing game n trying to come up with a concept for portfolio the whole afternoon. then went out for dinner with kelvin at potong pasir before our sectional training in church. learnt about going back to basics. went back with john..

fri

quite bored at home.. told myself to do work but just.... i was dreaming of having dim sum for brunch.. but i dun want to spend my own money so i thot of meeting my mom for lunch. hahahaha.. went to tanjong pagar, kept trying to contact her but couldn't. thank God i have 2 phones, n in the other phone i have her office number. that was how i found her.

had lunch in a cafe in Amara Hotel.. quite good.. haha.. my dad called to let me know that i can join them for their Tj Balai trip this sunday.. so i told him okay, i'm going. this was a last minute decision. took bus to chinatown n shopped for CDs at pearl centre. spent $44 =S but it was quite a good deal. i bought a Grasshopper album that consists of 3 CDs n 1 karaoke DVD, an ATB Seven Years album that that 1 cd n 1 dvd, n a Lin Junjie CD. hmm.. 7 discs for $44, not bad la.

took 147 to serangoon then changed to bus 100 to go to Golden Mile.. just had the mood to look for CDs. i always want to buy, but when i was there, i couldn't seem to find anything i would like to get. i found a shop that sells a few original copies, n even the copied ones look quite real. at least they bothered to do it properly. the other shop's copy looks super fake. spent a long time there. then decided to go home. i didn't want to use the toilet there so i held my bladder for 2 hours. my mom called to ask me go out for dinner when i was still on the way home. so i only got to go toilet at sengkang.. -.-"

these days i just have the craving for soups.

sat

woke up at 5+am to go harbourfront with my parents. had breakfast at Seah Im food centre. regretted ordering chicken feet noodles that taste bland. it took me a long time to eat.. my parents decided to give up waiting for me so they left first. their cell grp members came to eat so i had company. when we finished n walked to the Cruise centre, i saw my dad still waiting outside the toilet for my mom.. he shld have gone to buy my ticket while the booth was still open lor.. i had already passed my passport to him. in the end i had to buy a one-way ticket that costs $1 less than the return ticket.. i was ANGRY again. there were altogether 11 pple travelling.

when we reached Asun came to fetch us. we checked into Hotel Paradise then went to church. that hotel seems big, but is terrible. we split into 2 teams, i followed uncle hua chiang. we went to Ah Xin's house to visit, spent a long time there, played with their new dog, learnt that they were inviting swallows to build nest in their roof. cool sia. visited another house, a woman who was suffering from some illness n had water retention. her legs were swelling n her house had LOTS of mosquitoes. suffered several bites there. prayed for her for healing then we went off for lunch. had fried rice. i'm VERY glad they have ketchup. I love their soup!!

went back to church but Phei Phei was still not free yet to join us for visitation. so we went to the billiard palour opp the church to have some tea. i managed to drink my fav teh-o ice. happy. then we went to visit a house near the sea.. dunno y i was scared of walking on the planks, as if my slipper could get caught in the holes n i would trip. must be cuz i long time nv go kelong liao. there were alot of small crabs on the shore.. n this family catches fish for a living. we stayed in there until the rain stopped.

we went to the town area to visit this woman who babysits her granddaughter n thus couldn't attend service. i was hynotised by her rocking the sarong.. couldn't understand what they were saying. when the baby woke up i got to carry her.. but while they were praying i sensed that she was going to cry but i dunno how to soothe her.

went back to hotel.. my mom scolded me for being rude to her.. felt sucky n ANGRY. it's like if i'm close to someone i tend to lose my manners. n towards pple i'm not comfortable with, i'm very ke qi n uptight n nice. so which does she want? took a nap before going out.

went out for dinner with the whole grp.. had seafood. we ordered hotplate tofu, sambal kangkong, kailan, "black" pepper crab, n prawn omelette. had coconut too. sounds bad, but i ignored my mom the whole night. i know we're supposed to be fighting a spiritual battle together, but i guess i just let my feelings rule me. went to pasar malam, hoping to find the ring i bought 3 yrs ago but lost. disappointed. wanted to buy tempe to eat, but they were all not in triangle shape. didn't buy anything in the end.

walked back to hotel for supper n evaluation for the day. i realise my dad likes to arrow pple to do work. n i dun like that. the others also tend to ask me to do stuff becuz i'm the youngest. sigh. had a bad night of rest. cuz i was sleeping between 2 badly joined beds. kept wanting to sleep on one side, but couldn't sleep well n i felt i was pushed towards the centre again. =( the aircon wasn't working well also.

next morning i finally got one side of the bed to myself. but it was becuz i was time to wake up. went down 15 min later than my parents for breakfast. it was terrible. (i complain a lot huh. haven't been to balai for a few months n i'm acting like a princess already.) they were talking about their children n i wasn't very interested to join in the conversation. so i went back to the room. rested a while then packed my bag to check out.

we were discussing for a long time about the item we were going to put up for the people during service later. came up with our own chinese version of "With Christ in the Vessel". Asun helped us to settle our tickets n i got my departure tickets that says my boarding time is 09:45. does that mean i was supposed to board the ferry NOW? thank God i realise the mistake n still got time to change. took oplik to church. Sunday school was starting soon but i saw a boy who looks familiar, at the billiard palour opp church. my dad took out a plastic plate n played frisby with me n attracted that boy. was glad that our mission in bringing him over, was accomplished. joined in the Sunday school worship n Wiky came to play the guitar.. very happy haha.. halfway he recognised me n smiled too..

we decided to put up the song item for the children.. Wiky who didn't know the song, actually played the guitar for us! we were all very amazed n believe that it's God's gift for him. supposed to do some visiting but it was raining. n there was a couple who needed counselling. so we hung around. chatted with Wiky n i was rather tempted to ask about Frenky. but didn't. hmm..

he introduced his friend Andy to me.. haha.. played with 2 small boys Ah Qiang n Ah Heng.. went to Ah Qiang's house to play with his 2 puppies.. very cute! took photos of them n carried them. on the way carrying them to church, some of the team members were going to eat.. my mom scolded me for going missing, said they were about to call 999. ridiculous. went to the place we had lunch yday for lunch again. this time i ordered fried kuay tiao n soup! after that during service while we were putting up the song item again for the congregation, i saw ah yang n signalled to him to come in. he watched us for a while then left on a motorbike. sad sia. heard that he went to worship another god. heard that it was becuz he took Timothy's dad's motorbike n dun dare to appear. dots. saw Ai Mei n kept trying to get her to come near me but she's still so anti-social. n Wiky says she's very naughty at home.

after service went to take Oplik out to the jetty. bought tempe n pisang goreng then checked in. the men at the customs r terrible. one officer, his computer was facing everybody n everybody can see that he was playing Solitaire game.. -.-" my dad got a dirty n torn piece of 10000 rupiah n wanted to spend it. he used it to buy magnum ice cream. haha.. slept on the ferry n when i woke up n my discman played finished the last song, it was time to alight. had dinner at harbourfront food junction n then took train home.

monday

completed my new Nancy drew game. did nothing much. watched my ATB dvd while i cooked my maggi mee goreng. hoho~

:: question abt sex ::

is it all boy-girl relationships of more than one year will involve sex? some couple have sex after a few months, or even after a few days, but some can resist temptation up to a year... but seems like that's what i notice among non-christian friends. as for christian friends i dunno la. maybe the guys really can practice self control.

in the olden times pple get married early, probably around the age of puberty.. so even if there's the temptation, they have their wives as sex partner ba. so the chance of committing fornication is quite low.

y the sudden topic? i'm usually quite conservative even in conversations, but after a chat with a friend last night, seems like the theory that most couples have sex after 1 yr of relationship is v possible.

:: sick ::

wow this week passed v fast

mon after my lesson i tried to rush to orchard to go thai embassy but i didn't make it. very disappointed. went to visit the new food court at Wisma with my sis then asked my dad to fetch me. went to hougang for dinner. mom asked who my sis was going out with n i asked her y she so kaypo... she scolded me for being rude. haiz. she says she's being concerned abt her daughter. but she nv interfered in my business lor.. she doesn't ask me everyday who i go out with. i almost wanted to rebutt but i decided to hold back. then she nagged at me abt money again.

tue went to send my sis off early in the morning.. i slept late cuz chihiro came to my hse until 2am.. woke up at 4.30am.. had burger king breakfast, long time no eat turkey ham croissantwich!! HEAVEN~!

took bus 24 to amk.. sky was dark... fell asleep on the bus n everytime i woke up the sky gets brighter.. was a long journey.. when i reached amk the sky was finally bright bright.. haha.. took another bus to sch. very sian. played games created by other grps.. haha.. wakes me up..

after tt yihan n ian came in and shared abt portfolio.. i had to stay back to get my concept approved by ms wen lei before i went to meet them for lunch. didn't eat cuz i wanted to go home and cook noodles. dunno y everytime i eat halfway i dun feel like eating anymore.

been having so much instant noodles lately that it makes me dizzy..

oh i almost forgot to go for Tue Prayer meeting but God reminded me. hehe.. :P managed to reach in time.

after that felt a craving for sugar roll.. so went to the cake shop at potong pasir mrt station to buy.


wed
went to sch for proj grp meeting.. i find tt i spend too much time on IENTP. why? becuz it's a grp proj. i hate grp projects becuz there's a high expectation of me. i need to finish a certain task so that i wun let my grp members down. whereas if i work by myself i can do it up last min n at most i only let myself down, no one else. i spend too much time on this that my other assignments are suffering. sucks.

my mom realised that she didn't give me allowance for this week. looking forward to chihiro returning me money.. feel broke. i need $200 for printing my portfolio n namecards n stuff... but after paying for sponsorship for nelson and buying bus concession, i'm left with $112 in my bank. sigh.


thur
slept till 2pm then went to sch for grp meeting again. i cld have spent the time on broadcast graphics which i hadn't touched at all.

went to watch movie with thomas, lin feng, chihiro.. I not stupid too at PS.. touching.. i teared a lot.. *blush* keke..

went to meet john nic n david at lido.. they ate already.. i wanted to try out the food at the Wisma food court.. i wasn't hungry but i ate.. wanted to buy drinks but no money.. forgot to ask chihiro for money.. =x


fri
mom took leave today to go for lunch buffet with her sisters and brother. i was rather extra, cuz i didn't know who were coming. the restaurant at hotel rendezvous was fully booked so we went to Sushi Don instead. wanted to take a video of my mom entering the hotel, but NOT FUNNY. ate a lot sia, sushi + chicken karage set with udon, chawan mushi, fruit, ice cream, scallop.. *bleah* i was embarrassed to walk around with such a big tummy. wanted to go NAFA open hse but couldn't think of anyone to go with. it poured super heavily n all i was thinking is, i'm super tired. went home to sleep.

tmr is entre day, very scared.

falling sick... sigh.

:: oops ::

i skipped class to type this. ah no, i skipped class cuz i overslept.

made some adjustments to my wishlist section.. haha. my birthday is still SO far away it doesn't matter if u read it now ;)

lemme c.... 1st feb was a wed.. no lesson... didn't go sch.. but i read email at home then i realised an assignment was due. so i bia assignment. chihiro came to my house. she wanted to get her shampoo and bath foam. felt kinda impatient that day cuz i had work to do and she kept talking non-stop about her reverend's condo in Harbourfront. =x i wouldn't have felt so impatient if my walk with God is close. sigh. it's my fault too.

2nd feb my sis came back... overslept. i dunno y i keep slping till so late nowadays!!! must kick that. so when she reached i was still on the bus to the airport. met her at Burger King.. then took cab back.. went for lunch at punggol plaza.. i kinda had the impression that she's super broke but seems like i was wrong.. she's a rich tai tai in thailand! haha.. i expected that she would ask for money from my parents on top of her ang pow money and i was wrong too! well, it's pleasant to know that she's doing well la.

went to sch to do my assignment and submit, and return library book.

fri went for lesson in the morning, had to make adjustments to the IENTP report then submit. i was very impatient with the queue at the printing shop so i left my hard disk with huixiang and i rushed off to meet my sis at Coffee Club Taka. ordered a Iced mocha vanilla. her iced earl vanilla is good! then walked around.. find dad at his workplace (kinda expected to eat there) then went to DFS.. very very nice wor! a lot of cheena tourists.. sis gave a fierce look at a little girl who bumped into her. just her luck to be born in *****. ahem.

went to lucky plaza Cahaya restaurant for lunch, SUCKS. service poor, food quality poor. they DUN HAVE KETCHUP!!! and they take a year to serve food but 1 min to settle the bill. remind me not to go there man!

kinda tired. walked to PS with her then my dad came to fetch me home.

sat had cell grp.. there was a feet washing session.. quite awkward, but i understand the significance of it. the whole theme for the day was Leadership. Jesus' example of washing His disciples' feet was to demonstrate humility of a leader. to lead is to set example.

after that i walked towards the mrt station and i saw my dad.. oh this episode is very frustrating. as i mentioned, i haven't been feeling patient recently. so when my dad scolded me for being so troublesome by wanting a lift from him n yet dunno how to get to where he is, i cried. felt very oppressed inside. so i had to let it out. was almost reluctant to talk to my dad during dinner. but ok la. had chilli crab and scallops and cereal prawns near my hse. woohoo~ felt fat.

sis cooked riceballs while i watched Initial D.. my mom was watching too at first, but she always sleeps halfway while watching shows. wad a waste. watching show with her is no fun. spoils my mood when she calls the show boring!

sun went to church together with my family.. ahhh i realise that my bus concession ended!!! =( no money to buy... my ang pow money is meant for my fusion show la. shit.

had worship prac after service.. had a double cheeseburger. after that went to Hotel Rendezvous.. hiak hiak.. with esther, my sis, elena n shirley. nah. went for drinks at the Coffee club only la. ordered a cheesecake n Strawberry tea. dun like. poor esther had to crack her brains for her work. so we helped her.. haha.. great time of fellowship and understanding them more.. =P

went home.

watched jaew for the 4th time and this time with a bit of help for translation from my sis. understand the jokes a bit more. oh man the guy in the show is SOOOO cute~!

and today.. i skipped a 3-hour lesson, to sleep for one hour, prepare and wash clothes in the next hour, and wanted to eat but decided to skip and send emails to my so-called clients for some design and type this.

going for IENTP lesson now... hopefully later can go Thai Embassy to take a look..
