last time i went bkk i took leave on a fri. came back sick and had to take MC the following wed. this time i took leave last fri, went to indonesia over the weekend and had to take MC the following wed. haha.
got a sore throat from eating the gorengan from balai. =( how i know it caused my sore throat? because i started feeling unwell in my throat since sunday night.
monday it got worse and tuesday i lost my voice.
my fault for not watching what i eat. haha.. monday went out with Juliana, my excolleague, sorta her belated birthday meetup. we went to Earle Swensen's at Vivocity. ordered Calamari and seafood pasta. calamari wasn't nice and yet very fried. :S tried to sing when i got home. haha. Evermore by Planetshakers.
tuesday went to Tiong Bahru plaza to meet my sec sch pals to celebrate Kwek's bday. we had dinner at Rajahinn. A steamboat buffet place. i didn't really have much appetite but i could still eat la. got home and felt like singing the Doxology. dunno y but thank God that the moment i got home my throat seemed to clear and i was able to sing. but at night i felt feverish, unable to sleep. felt terrible, like going to die. was quite worried that it might be dengue. kept waking up to go toilet.
today went to see doc. took MC. doc says it's just common flu. thank God, nothing serious. maybe it's stress from work. i feel much better after taking medicine.

:: Worship 07 ::
yeah i was saying, i took leave for some rest. been having practices for Worship 07 on thurs and fri is THE DAY. so i didn't want to rush around too much. actually i needed to buy something, so i told myself to go out, and be back by 1pm for more rest at home. but i ended up taking photos of my collection (see below) until 1pm! went for lunch with my mom and aunts at Outram Park. i was really shocked that my aunts had ordered... 4 fish dishes + 2 veg dishes ++! i've never eaten so much fish in a meal before. :S collected my HK + BKK photos that i asked my aunt to develop. whee~
took train to bugis. wanted to go bras basah to look for a specific assessment book for Phei Phei. Popular bookstore don't have, despite its 4-level big-sized branch. weird. so i went around other shops to look for it. i must buy it before going to church, or else i would have no more chance to find it. took quite long at that. finally managed to find it at a small bookshop there. wanted to also go to Dashing Diva clearance sale, but it started pouring. reluctantly i had to go home. wanted to rest, take a shower, but i realise i was late already. haiz. shopping took too much time.
Worship07 was great. i had asked weiting, judy, and swee yi along, but all not free. haiz. i'm quite upset with swee yi lor. always ask her out but she busy, and when she's free she didn't even think of asking me out, assuming i would not be free. she said she would be going ktv with her friends on fri. my first thought was, how come u nv ask me along! i know i won't be free to go, but she didn't even bother to ask! i think i have just lost a friend. u know, since January judy tried to ask us all out but all the while we didn't manage to. whenever i call her she say she's busy and will call me back, in the end she didn't. argh. i'm upset because it mattered a lot to me. =(
anyway, besides that, i was saying Worship07 was great. felt that we actually didn't prac enough, but just go as the Spirit leads lor. very free flow. went overtime, but, it's normal la. hehe.
after that went for supper with my cell grp and Agape. actually, i was at Al-Azhar with Agape only. my cell grp went for duck rice. Elohim was at Al-Ameen. after Agape went back i went to find my cell grp guys and we went to look for Elohim. haha.. to chat. There's this guy called Ryan who was from RV. again i don't recognise him. oh i think i forgot to mention that there was one day i went to look for my mom for lunch and then we went to New Balance factory outlet near her workplace. Then there was this guy called Shawn who recognised me. i wonder how come i have no idea who he is at all. he said he was from RV... =x okay back to this Ryan, he remembers that i was from choir, and that i know Zhengnian. haha. a rather handsome but paikia junior. ;) jialat la, where was i in sec sch man. how come pple rem me but i dun have any recollection of these pple at all.
Kelvin sent me home. wahh so touched. jayce asked whether we live near each other, and i replied, "actually, we live worlds apart". haha.. i think i really need to learn driving liao la. not everyone can be so willing to send me all the way home one lor. so on the journey i keep asking him abt driving and cars. reached home abt 2+am. packed my bag for Tj Balai.

haha.. just to commemorate them before i throw some away. i have too much junk!

Passing Remark - Ep.1
I think models should be a little more ...meaty .... Like me. Like most people. That way normal people will know whether certain clothes fit us or not. If nice clothes are meant only for skinny people, then... i have nothing to say. For international designer clothes brand targetting asians, their models should be asians.
Between western and jap fashion styles, i would choose to follow jap. between jap and thai/hk styles, i'd go for the latter. i appreciate being an asian more and more.
graphic design-wise i also think so. feel that american design is losing out to asian's nowadays. HA HA!

:: driving?? ::
7 July Sat
Special Day! 07.07.07 - a good reason to be welcome the cell grp with this lame opening.
Planned games for cell grp. Did Bible Trivia. hope they enjoyed it.
worship prac.
sun
Sunday service. Sermon on Habakkuk 1. lunch with cell grp at Marina Sq. No choir prac today! finally can get to rest one weekend. went to Sentosa after that. Sort of a personal retreat. hmmm Sentosa is more n more commercialised. no longer my haven. sigh. I took monorail in to Beach Station, queued up for the tram to Palawan, Tanjong Beach. Instead of the tram i got a minibus instead. ok la, aircon lor. but i prefer open-air leh. haha. after the ride i changed to take the tram to Siloso Beach. I think they alternate trams and minibuses la. "suay-suay" kena minibus again. >.< hahahaha. finally decided to find a spot to read the Bible and just listen to the waves. sigh~~~~~ just beside me was a couple making out. And not far away i could hear music playing from Cafe Del Mar or one of those pubs in the area. and screams of people as they get dragged and thrown into the sea for fun. there was quite a big group of Thai kids, wonder if they're here to study.
i couldn't medidate... my heart was on something. someone. so frustrating.
mon
Andrielle passed her driving test! hmm... went to shirley's house with her for vocal practice. hehe. waited very long for bus 64!! next time i will take MRT instead. thought bus would be faster and more direct since my workplace is very near bukit merah.
shirley cooked beef don for us. YUMMY!~~~ i understand onions are there to make it taste and smell better. just that i mind sinking my teeth into them. haha.. at first i thought one bowl of rice would not be enough for me, but i have been fasting lunch (on and off la) so i shouldn't eat too much at dinner. when we started prac singing i felt very full. haha.. my stomach is slow la. not bad i think i have a better understanding of diaphragms. i must have been using it to sing la, if not i think my voice quality would have been worse. but i need to understand it better to utilise it better. i still dun understand my sec sch choir conductor J Tham's analogy of imagining i have noses at my waist.
played with Shirley's Wii~! honestly i had no idea what it was until i tried using it. was fascinated that it makes sounds and vibrates as alerts. played bowling and tennis with it. haha..
after that shirley had a conference for work, so andrielle and i made our way back. i started considering whether i shld learn driving or not. i have always been a scaredy-cat when it comes to operating vehicles.
hmm, some reasons to learn driving:
1. my dad's driving is getting from bad to worse, i want to learn and next time drive him around
2. a car can bring my whole family out. my dad's motorbike can't.
3. i can leave my files / books / etc etc in a car. when i was still a student i wished my dad drove a car so that i could do my homework last min on the way to school. when i was taking O Levels i wished i could revise last min on the way to school. also, there was once i fell asleep on the journey to sch. i could have fallen off the bike!
4. it's a useful skill la. (just attended a wedding dinner on 14 July, my uncle drank quite a bit, and his wife had to take the wheel) i'm not asking for a drunkard husband though.
5. i used to have a childhood dream, that i would drive my jeep all the way from Singapore to Hong Kong and then settle there. and my travelling companion would take turns with me, to drive or sleep.
6. sometimes i feel quite sad that my cell grp leave me out in informal outings like supper just because i live so far.
and now some reasons not to:
1. i can't afford a car! and fuel, maintenance, etc etc.. even licence itself costs as much as my public transport budget for the whole year.
2. the money could be better spent.
3. public transport is cheaper - and faster to town at peak hours
4. i can't even handle a bicycle.
5. there are lotsa road hazards out there besides myself
6. i would need 110% attention and energy to drive safely - often i can't afford that
tue
went to Bugis to meet chuinfang to return her VCDs i borrowed since poly days. oh my goodness. hahaha.. had beijing ramen and xiaolongbao. yummy~! Bugis street is so like Bangkok Suan Lum Night Bazaar!! u can find message t-shirts there! but i didn't ask for the price la. bought 2 tops. heehee.. i wanna go there more often to shop :P oopss i guess i just demonstrated how deprived i am. i mean, because i didn't even know Bugis Street is so cool. haha. i must have not been there for YEARS.
wed
hmmm... i kinda rem going somewhere. i'll update this part when i can rem.
sat
shared word for cell grp. About Habakkuk 1, a recap, as well as go thru for chapter 2. did a different approach, because i can't find anything factual to share about this character Habakkuk.
went for wedding dinner as mentioned briefly above. my parents dragged me there. my dad told me to go in his place because he was tired. in the end he turned up too! heard that some pple couldn't make it so there were spaces. the groom is his cousin. haha.. quite cute to know that my dad has cousins. oh i'm sure he has, but i've NEVER seen them before. somemore so young, just getting married. the dinner was at The Sentosa Resort. been there before for Alan & Zane's wedding dinner, 14 June (forgot which yr). and this day is 14 July. cool. haha.
went home late.
ahh share more another day la. it's late now, 7.30pm, i should have knocked off already.

:: Will you love me fur ever? ::
Oh i am so in love with this puppy!
This chihuahua puppy literally wears its heart on its sleeve.
The cute male pooch, born with a perfect heart-shaped patch on its side, has been suitably named Heartkun by its owner in northern Japan.
The one-and-a-half-month-old pup was born as one of a big litter, but is the only new arrival to sport such a heart-warming coat.
According to owner Emiko Sakurada, this is the first occasion a puppy with such marks had been born out of the more than one thousand chihuahuas she has bred.

:: malaria ::
Malaria is an Italian word that means "bad air".
i've subscribed to National Geog magazine.. every months comes a story that impacts me. This month's story is about Malaria and how serious it is. The Malaria disease is able to evolve/mutate to immune itself against new vaccines everytime. so disgusting!
There's this quote in the article: "A lull in malaria transmission could cause many people to lose any immunity they have built up against the disease—even adults, immunologically speaking, could revert to infant status—rendering it more devastating if it returned. This is why a partial victory over malaria could be worse than total failure." - reminds me of the verse in Luke 11:24-26
"When an evil spirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, 'I will return to the house I left.' When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that man is worse than the first."

Super tired..
July is here.. haa so fast.. June 2007 is forever gone. Since the start of Love Singapore, it's time for fasting and praying. (i've been inconsistent in my fasting but i haven't been eating full lunch.)
tue - went for prayer meeting after work. asked my dad to join me, but he refused. haa. he drove me to church. but we stopped by Bugis on the way to find something to eat. it's been years since i've been there, don't even know where the eating place is.
ended up doing backup for projection. haa. stress sia. Rev John Loong shared abt praying dangerously - 1. Search me 2. Break me 3. Stretch me 4. Use me 5. Lead me. indeed these prayers are not comfortable prayers.
wed - dinner with Natalie at Vivocity. Ate lotsa seafood at White Dog Cafe. hehe. Calamari and Baked Mussels as appetisers and Salmon Pizza as main course, totally seafood! Glad we didn't order more than that because my appetite has grown smaller these few days. Oh we also had an Oreo Milkshake. No wonder the bill came up to $40+ hehe. all the savings for the past few days was splurged just like that.
after that i rushed to Bishan J8 to watch Transformers!!! with wenzheng and malcolm. Yay finally.. was thinking of finding pple to watch it at first. yeah my fav part would be the part Bumble Bee played songs for the girl. Haha. after movie we had supper at S11. had teh n i confidently said tt tea will not affect me. i ended up sleepless. :(
thur - planned to go home slp after work, but eileen asked me out. so haha ok la. we had dinner at chinatown. my first time eating Frog Leg porridge!!!! i ate my friends! tastes like a cross between fish and chicken =O then i went to change money at People's Park. known to have good rates in singapore. i still had thai baht since my bangkok trip and i think i shld change back since the thai baht is low. turns out ok only, i was still considering the thai baht exchange rate n the woman changed my money already. =( ah well.
walked to clarke quay Central and window shopped. eileen was considering buying a bag from Charles & Keith. i'm such a lousy companion for shopping, because i go for cheap deals, compromising quality at times. my black bag? $10 and goes everywhere with me. then we had ice cream and chatted till the shop switched off the lights on us. >.<
i feel v stretched indeed. 1. to take up vocals duty this weekend or not? 2. this weekend i heard tt choir needs to stay back again. i think i will get my rest only after Worship07. i shldn't be looking forward for it to end actually.

:: in the valley ::
updates:
14 June - had a quiet birthday. had lunch with Ashley and her colleagues at Malaysian railway food court, partly because i don't want to have lunch with my colleague. not on my special day. heh. after work took a slow walk to clarke quay, because i only had to reach church at 8pm. had catered dinner with Graham Kendrick and his team. didn't recognise GK though. after that i went for ice cream with Esther and Elena at Mac's. not a bad day la.
15/6 - realise that God had blessed my birthday a lot, because it was cloudy and overcast today, but was a great sunny day yesterday. after work went to church for GK concert. dunno y i can't rem where the concert is held. i went to DCB but found the doors locked. then i realise i shld be at SAJC cultural centre instead. supposed to help Shirley out with projection, but some guy called David bao ka liao. hee. my dad was there to help out as usher, so i went back with him.
16/6 - went to World Vision with Jac. She and Amos had planned to help me start to sponsor a child from there. unfortunately the staff were all out for 30-hour Famine camp at Republic Poly, except for one part-time staff. i left my contact details with him and left for Vivocity. supposed to be my birthday celebration with cell grp la. treated those present for lunch at Carl's Jr. shared word for cell grp. was quite clueless abt what to share up till Wed / thur. then i felt tt i shld share something i had made notes on before. so i shared on Daniel. Chris sat in. anyway thank God for moving because my preparation for word was just so-so, but some of them saw it as a wake up call. went to SAJC CC for GK concert. was a little disappointed that they did some same songs as last night. i wanted to buy the trumpet player Raul's cd, but didn't because of the cd cover design. in the end i bought Andy & Gabriel Alonso cd, partly because of the cd cover. it was a pic of them looking lovingly at each other =P
17/6 - again i can't rem where the service was held, SAJC CC or DCB? had a debate with my mom, until she won. she called almost everyone in her cell grp to make sure she's correct. >.< it was supposed to be Father's Day but we didn't have any celebration or indication during service leh. had Worship07 prac, then had dinner with my parents at Hougang Mall. sooo drained. my dad kept nagging at me for not chipping in to pay for the dinner. c'mon, i thought i get a free dinner because it was my birthday?
18/6 - supposed to have a Psychoianz outing to Timbre's, but the lazy organiser didn't contact everyone early enough. Too many pple couldn't make it, so i postponed it to Wed.
19/6 - went to Vivocity to alter my S&K jeans. went to Giant Naturally Marketplace to look for cheap sushi as recommended by Jac. so happy! bought a set and was on my way to the MRT station when i met Natalie. she also wanted to buy sushi so we went back to Giant. then we decided to enjoy our sushi at the waterfront.
20/6 - had quite a great night out with a few Psychoianz. haha. only weiting, weili, shuying, peichun, siangyuan and jianping in the end. gee i thought my kor die-die would come, but he was stuck in the hospital, doing some checkups i think. we celebrated my birthday. hehe had a cake and a Topshop giftcard! gee i NEVER bought anything in Topshop before, and NEVER thought of buying anything from there. the price is ridiculously set la. hmm... wonder how i can use it. didn't really concentrate on the live band, but more on catching up with each other. we tried to come up with our class list according to our register numbers.... haha.. reminisce.. and we exchanged our contact numbers and msn because most of us have lost contact already. surprisingly i realise i still have most of their number.
21/6 - (check out my entry in my other blog) supposed to visit Cailing today, but she just had her operation, and is in ICU, so visitation was not allowed. went to buy a gift for her from Vivocity after collecting my altered jeans.
22/6 - supposed to meet up with "Single's club" today, but because i wanted to visit Cailing first and lotsa other complications we decided to postponed our meeting.

Kwek even printed a certificate of owning the website.. hehehe.. my website is at www.djgemz.com but it's not updated, so i'm using my last yr's content. shucks no time to redesign it. they even sent me all the way home though all of them live in the west! i'm really really grateful.
29/6 - went for Nic's bbq cum birthday party after work. met jinwen at kovan.. i was trying to find a POSB atm but the nearest one is so far away!! i wonder y Heartland mall nv install POSB/DBS atm sia. finally Single's club got to meet up together.. yay.. but i couldn't stay long. was going to Zouk for my kor's dj competition. must show my support la. my first time clubbing this yr. heh. weiting was surprised tt i wanted to come at first. anyway, the competition starts at 10pm but i was almost late for it, because 2 pple snatched cabs from me. =( anyway i went in with weiting and her friend Leo. saw jianping, yong teng, daniel, shuping, lizi and even siong chew who is amazingly skinny now. shuping left soon after kor's session cuz she felt quite drunk. she had been there since 7pm due to a company function at Velvet. was quite disappointed to realise that the smoking ban was not in effect yet. there was freeflow of Paulander beer (bottles). i had a bottle and after tt dunno y immediately felt like puking. i didn't anyway. we went to Phuture together n the guys protected us. so nice.. =) went back at 12am for the announcement of the result. argh kor got 4th. the one i didn't like most got 3rd!! how can!? he got quite expensive prizes though. some of us went to the coffeeshop nearby for roti prata and teh tarik. now i feel yong teng is ...nicer. haha. last time i didn't really like him actually. the 4 guys were from the same pri sch.. so cool that they r still so close now. took cab home but wasted $3 on a tunnel jam. sian.
30/6 - my mom kept asking how come i return home so late but i nv say anything. ha.
cell evangelistic event! was at first v disappointed tt weiting couldn't make it last minute. i smsed Jac to tell her the final number of friends coming and she encouraged me that at least there r 2. had pre-cell lunch and jeremy continued sharing abt his trip. we had prayer in #02-15 and then judy and carl arrived. played First Hands and Settlers of Catan for 2 rounds. didn't get to meet aloy's friend but some of my cell grp pple got to meet my friends. had worship prac so i couldn't join them for dinner. had hoped that they would join my cell grp for dinner though i wouldn't be there. really glad to see them still with them when some of us joined them afterwards. weiting came while i had worship prac. she joined me as i did projection. and then we all went to find my cell grp together at Swirl. though i dunno what's wrong with my emotions but it was certainly a day worth celebrating, my best friends get to meet my cell grp.
dallas had shared abt the parable of the tenants and how we can see ourselves as the tenants. felt really convicted and asked isabella to pray for me.
managed to catch the last train home. had to run for it.
1/7 - received a sms from weiting saying tt she was glad to meet my cell grp. =) isabella wrote me a card to encourage me. so sweet of her! was a littled screwed up in the projection for Holy Communion. =x rev john loong's msg convicted me too, but dunno y i didn't feel tt ready to respond. wanted to skip lunch and take a nap. was so tired after lack of regular sleep over the past few days. kelvin asked elizabeth to help me to do the files for Worship07. it was a good time of catching up la. i realise i wouldn't really fall asleep during the time actually. i'm tired but can't fall asleep, do u know how tt feels? i could only stone at times.
during prayer i told God that i felt broken. and the next moment kelvin led the song "a broken spirit...and a contrite heart... You will not despise..." i started to break down. there r some issues i need to deal with again.
most of the time during prac i was stoning la. felt like i could just breathe my last anytime. i had to miss sab's birthday party because i know i cannot dong until then. started to have a craving for pizza. but sadly i didn't get to satisfy it. my dad brought me to hougang, expecting me to order western food. i ordered fried bee hoon instead. he asked me why, but i didn't answer him.
2/7 - Happy Anniversary indeed. finally my boss remembered that i have been working for him for 1 year already. =D
14 June - had a quiet birthday. had lunch with Ashley and her colleagues at Malaysian railway food court, partly because i don't want to have lunch with my colleague. not on my special day. heh. after work took a slow walk to clarke quay, because i only had to reach church at 8pm. had catered dinner with Graham Kendrick and his team. didn't recognise GK though. after that i went for ice cream with Esther and Elena at Mac's. not a bad day la.
15/6 - realise that God had blessed my birthday a lot, because it was cloudy and overcast today, but was a great sunny day yesterday. after work went to church for GK concert. dunno y i can't rem where the concert is held. i went to DCB but found the doors locked. then i realise i shld be at SAJC cultural centre instead. supposed to help Shirley out with projection, but some guy called David bao ka liao. hee. my dad was there to help out as usher, so i went back with him.
16/6 - went to World Vision with Jac. She and Amos had planned to help me start to sponsor a child from there. unfortunately the staff were all out for 30-hour Famine camp at Republic Poly, except for one part-time staff. i left my contact details with him and left for Vivocity. supposed to be my birthday celebration with cell grp la. treated those present for lunch at Carl's Jr. shared word for cell grp. was quite clueless abt what to share up till Wed / thur. then i felt tt i shld share something i had made notes on before. so i shared on Daniel. Chris sat in. anyway thank God for moving because my preparation for word was just so-so, but some of them saw it as a wake up call. went to SAJC CC for GK concert. was a little disappointed that they did some same songs as last night. i wanted to buy the trumpet player Raul's cd, but didn't because of the cd cover design. in the end i bought Andy & Gabriel Alonso cd, partly because of the cd cover. it was a pic of them looking lovingly at each other =P
17/6 - again i can't rem where the service was held, SAJC CC or DCB? had a debate with my mom, until she won. she called almost everyone in her cell grp to make sure she's correct. >.< it was supposed to be Father's Day but we didn't have any celebration or indication during service leh. had Worship07 prac, then had dinner with my parents at Hougang Mall. sooo drained. my dad kept nagging at me for not chipping in to pay for the dinner. c'mon, i thought i get a free dinner because it was my birthday?
18/6 - supposed to have a Psychoianz outing to Timbre's, but the lazy organiser didn't contact everyone early enough. Too many pple couldn't make it, so i postponed it to Wed.
