went out with audrey on mon after work.. long time no c her.. we had dinner at cine foodcourt. the jap food bento v cheap wor! $3.90 nia~! walked to heeren to shop around... v long time no go there.. bought a top.. wanted to buy another one but not enuf money, muz restrict myself.
been going out for dinner with the singles' club de members haha.. feel quite bad cuz i spend little time at home.. no chance to sit down n chat with my parents.. yday v happy cuz on our way to orchard ian saw weiting at yck mrt station.. i pa jiao cannot recognise pple de.. =x asked her to join us till she go to meet miaoyue liyin n limin.. had dinner at far east plaza.. dunno y i feel quite worried tt my mom will think i go out with boyfriend then seldom go home early. haha.. went to cine cuz wendy wan to buy the shell tt can contain toys. then we went to heeren cuz cannot find in cine. saw weili n kathy n their friend (from rv also) long time no c weili... still the same girl. i also saw huixiang!!! hoho~ finally got to meet carl. showed hx the top i bought n the top i wanted to buy but didn't. she tried it on n quite like it too..
i feel v happy to meet friends outside.. i feel even happier if they start conversations n initiate to noe my other friends as well.. like tt then everyone around me also friends... happy tree friends... hahahaa... juz joking...

:: back from malacca ::
had FYP presentation on thur, not as bad as i expected, so i felt alrite. the presentation was v long sia... like more than 1 hr... went to south canteen to find nic, sheralyn n michael.. while waiting for elaine to go for lunch.. there was a food fest, bought a "shark's fin" soup.. n egg tarts, da pao to FJ eat.. while i eat ban mian also.. =x my pants v tight..
transferred files n deleted my unwanted junk from the FYP comp... until 5pm, went for napfa... i failed it hahaha... did 30 situps in 1 min.. quite slow but i was the fastest among those beside me.. hahaha.. IFAH.. i was confident to do many cuz i think my arm muscles v strong (sadly they look BIG for nothing) did onli 7.. standing broad jump, i heard, is every girls' nightmare.. i passed shuttle run juz by a bit.. haha.. the 2.4km run.. wah.... i realli shld have trained harder.. =x i mean train more often... yr 2 sem 1 tt time i got go run regularly.. sem 2 like no more.. i failed it by around 3 min.. v much sia..
was v stressed on friday... been chionging portfolio for the whole day cuz my IAP company de boss wants to c it.. didn't need to go to sch.. =D i chiong until sat morning, no slp at all... i was v worried cuz i could not send the work to print personally cuz i wld be in malacca during the weekend.. so i had been trying to find pple to help me print... asked hx at first.. but she nv online, so when elaine chat with me on msn i thot of asking her to help me instead. i v pek cek around 2am lor.. keep trying to send/upload to gmail but cannot, network like v slow.. pek cek until i cry sia.. 2 ways to c how desperate i was abt it: i had to apply for a gmail account cuz faj says can attach files more than 10MB, which turned out to be false. i connected my pc to the internet which i wld nv do becuz it catches viruses from the internet super easily.. my ibook was super lag tt nite..
by 5.45am if i'm not wrong i managed to upload all the files finally... went to malacca with a lighter heart.. neck ache tho.. can say tt i enjoy the trip, cuz i explored places i nv been b4.. i was surprised tt the trip was a tour package.. thot its free n easy all the way.. went with my dad's colleagues (canteen aunties and uncles) oh man i tell u the coach was super noisy... i realli dun like the way aunties shout to each other across a few seats lor.. so gross! during the trip i had no discman..forgot to take back from esther =x the aunties sang karaoke.. >.< unbearable!! haha the tour guide quite cute ;) he sang a teochew song v funny one..
he brought us to yong peng which is not the one i expected.. tt yong peng was juz a toilet stop nia... the one i expected had food centre n supermarket selling local food products de... the ride was v long.. stopped outside malacca, ayer keroh, if i'm not wrong, to go to Jusco shopping.. i walked around on my own..hoho.. i grow up liao can be more independent liao.. didn't buy anything... wanted to buy underwear, but there were not up to my expectation.. =x hhaa.. wanted to buy a razor back top but somehow dun realli convince myself tt i like it..
then bus brought us into malacca where we alighted to have our lunch at a restoran peranakan. the design quite nice.. food so-so nia.. after lunch went to Jonker walk.. been there countless times.. felt like i've juz been there not long ago. in fact i last went there 1 yr ago. didn't buy anything... went to check into the hotel Equatorial.. short, EQ hotel. shared a room with a 15 yr old girl tt i dunno.. felt weird.. put down my bag n went to Mahkota shopping centre with my parents.. again i had the chance to walk around on my own.. saw some nice clothes n wondered maybe i shld change my wardrobe. but then again, i do have many clothes, juz without the confidence to wear them.. gosh itz my figure la.. gross.. bought a triumph bra hoho.. i onli bought it after asking my mom for opinion.. it costs around SGD$22.70 hahaa when i come back i go compare price. =p hopefully after buying tt bra it'll boost my confidence to wear spags.
went back to hotel around 6pm to prepare to go out.. the tour guide brought us to jonker walk again to experience the nitelife this time. (i've experienced both b4 anyway haha) mom wanted to eat the chicken rice balls, but in my opinion, there's nothing special abt the ball... after all when it comes to my mouth, its a mashed up mess like when i eat normal chicken rice.. haha.. ate a bit of fish laksa, shrimp dumpling noodle, n seafood noodle (share with my parents) n dimsum... we even walked to the hawker centre near the hotel we used to stay in juz to eat sting ray! v regretful for not ordering hao jian, fried kuay tiao n cheong fun!!! (oops does it sound a lot to u?) we rushed back to our meeting place after eating stingray tt's y no time to eat others.. v happy cuz it was time well spent rushing around juz to eat a famous/favourite food. found tt the whole golden legacy hotel was closed for revonation.. v kua zhang sia..
went back to jonker walk n walked thru the street to get to our meeting point.. along the way my mom n i thot we had time so we ordered hotdog waffle.. man, food is damn cheap in msia!! i realli dun mind eating more! =p went back to hotel.. decided to get a beer while seating at the hotel lounge.. i reminise the time i had with my YEP frenz having drinks at the Gold Orchid Hotel in bangkok! spent not a long time there... watched a bit of soccer.. went back to my room.. my roommate v shy, she went to bathe in her mom's room instead.. i felt guilty for leaving her alone.. felt tt 9+pm was too early to slp.. so watch tv till 11+ haha.. dreamt of someone ;p
next morning woke up 7.40am.. went down for breakfast. not tt superb but there was the egg guy!! cool!! like bangkok! ordered a ham n mushroom omelette hoho.. had a lot of food for breakfast in fact.. fried noodles + some side dishes, porridge, milk n cereal, muffins, erm.. sounds a lot heh! walked around with my parents, explored some historical places tt i've nv been b4.. went back to hotel room n took a good bath.. then checked out. wait, tt's not the end of my trip! the tour guide brought us to a shop to buy local food products.. bought alot =P then we had lunch at a Beijing style restaurant. the table cloth is terrible... got holes n black marks... -.- food was good tho.
took the coach out of malacca... to a well tt pple believe can bring luck then to yong peng (same place) then to a durian farm.. someone from our coach bought a lot of durians for us to share.. =D~~ ate a lot.. on the bus the aunties had karaoke again, but this time the songs r cantonese (makes life more bearable)
during the trip i took a lot of photos.. haha.. ok such a long account sia..

:: nothing to say ::
ahhh.... sunday over lunch there was a discussion abt worms in our bodies... i hate the fact that there ARE worms in our body, according to some pple... makes me feel conscious everytime i feel funny inside..
joined my cell grp, well, 4 of them after lunch to chill out.. kelvin drove us to great world city.. walked around zara.. hmm... some clothes are nice, but i will nv buy them... becuz honestly i feel tt money shld not be spent tt way.. if i had $100 i would use probably half to buy my own stuff, give 10% to tithe, n the remaining i would donate to organations like Children International or SPCA.. in zara, the price range is actually v great, u can get something for $9.90, u can also find stuff over $300! but it was a great time looking at the clothes with jieling.. makes me feel ashamed of wad i was wearing.. i've grown out of my clothes already, but haven't got time n money to "change" my wardrobe... i feel bad if i throw my clothes away, i also feel awful if i keep them n yet dun wan to wear them anymore...
took bus to orchard then changed to 174 to terry's house.. first time there... he's got a cat!! cute...but noty, she actually will bite ur hand if u offer her! not bite la, but it sure wasn't friendly to put my hand in her mouth.... watched De-Lovely halfway then stopped.. talked abt psalmist.. watched a few scenes of Undercover Brother too.. wasn't funny.. then kelvin came.. after a while we had dinner at a coffee shop.. sorta wondered if i shld eat or not.. but when i thot of rice i decided to.. gosh i was never such a sucker for rice! took taxi with jieling n kelvin, dropped at yew tee mrt then took train to woodlands. changed to bus..... n I OVERSLEPT on the bus n missed my stop!! i was 7 stops away already when i woke up... i felt quite amazed at myself.. =x it was close to 12, but thank God buses travel fast during tt time. i reached home a little after 12..
when i reached home, i realised tt VINEE WAS GONE!!! i seriously dunno where it went... maybe it got blown away by the thunderstorm.. but it was my fault to wait till today to check if vinee is still downstairs..
fyp realli sucks for me... after i realise tt attachment is coming soon, i look forward to it, n hope i can skip the presentation part sia.. i noe i will kena big trouble already... so.. haiz..
n guess where i'm attached to..? haha.. when i saw the address i realli dunno to laugh or to cry... itz the same as my sch.. ... .... .. my attachment is in sch. sobz.... maybe itz God's blessing in disguise... i say 'disguise' becuz i still cannot tell in wad way it is a blessing. but certainly enuf i wanna thank God tt i got pay even tho i'm working in sch... itz an average pay, but i rem seeing one of my classmates getting a lower pay... hmm... i dun mind working OT if got extra pay =P
today v stress.. but when i hang out with my friends we dun tok abt work.. so i dun feel stress.. but tt is escaping reality la.. i'm juz glad tt i'm able to help my SIT partner solve Director scripting problems.. n i'm glad tt she appreciates =)
went to "train" for napfa with yongcheng n swee yi after sch today.. onli train the 2.4km run la.. n not even train, itz juz warming up lor... i mean i always run one round then rest, one round then rest, realli useless kinda training lor.. i'm so lazy!!

hmm.. honestly i think the date for the psalmist retreat is not a good time.. july 1st got the nationwide prayer concert at singapore expo... we had to miss it... campus crusade organised a GIG leaders training tt evening also.. had to miss tt too.. then july 2nd n 3rd persis going balai with gail.... i wld like to go along.. but since i've already confirmed my place at the retreat, dun need to consider liao. but.... the retreat was great~! gave me time to think thru some stuff.. been prayed for abt my FYP too.
been slping a lot hahaha itz gd to replenish my slp =P i like playing polar bear... haha..
took a lot of photos but they dun turn out nice... most r blurry..
hmm i still need to pray abt forgiveness towards someone... there's this someone who offends me everytime she opens her mouth..! thank God for esther who prayed for me regarding forgiveness but i dun think she noes who exactly i'm referring to.. but i'm sure God spoke to her to pray abt tt issue! hehe..
thanks liz n yongqiang for praying for me too.. may God bless those who bless me!~ =)

:: purpose ::
=) i dunno... but i guess i'm starting to discover the purpose of the fyp... God's purpose for me.. =)
i'm starting to get v interested in the animals i'm working on... today on my way home i was reading a book on giraffes... three times i laughed while reading..
for my fyp i need to include the place where the animal lives, n in the book it is stated tt giraffes lives in open woodlands. i wonder if the MINDS students will go to Woodlands to find giraffes...? n i was trying to imagine giraffes with high blood pressure... well, they do have it in fact.. then there's the part abt birth.. lemme quote the paragraph... "The birth itself takes between one and two hours. The female does not make matters easy for the calf because she gives birth standing up. The calf's arrival into the world is followed by a 2-metre drop on to hard ground..." poor thing.. i feel so awed by how cute n small the baby giraffe is compared to the adult!
i feel especially amazed with God, for the natural instincts of survival... when browsing (the term used for giraffe eating leaves), the males always take the taller part of the tree while the females can take the slightly lower part.. tt's so tt there wun be competition for food!! wow! v considerate n intelligent of them to think of tt! getting to noe these animals better makes me want to understand more... i wan to watch the way these animals realli behave, rather than juz reading abt them off books...
i'm starting to love giraffes.. becuz they r realli friendly, they look out for one another while feeding/drinking water, even together with other animals! they rank themselves after a test of strength not by violent fighting, but necking.. hmm.. i love the pic of a young giraffe hiding between its mother's legs!!
praise God for providing for these animals n giving them the intelligence to protect themselves n ensure the safety of their next generation...

:: bbq ::
hmm was quite reluctant to go for the bbq.. firstly becuz it was a last minute notice.. i realli dun believe many pple will turn up.. secondly becuz i was scolded by my fyp supervisor juz b4 tt. i thot she wouldn't check on me after tues.. but turns out she knew my every movement. |= * ( |< ! she warned me again abt failing me for fyp. haiz
on the bus to ecp i was rather upset... kept thinking things like 'if onli my project is like jiayi n jinwen's...' 'if onli we're doing the project in blk M' 'if onli i dun have tt guy as my partner' but thing is i shld nv question y things turn out the way they r.. things tt i cannot choose, is up to God. i can't blame God too. so, i realli dunno how, i onli noe how to complain to hx abt my situation.. i guess i can blame myself for lacking in discipline too. i almost teared. then an old man sat beside me.. i felt super scared whenever he puts his hand on his lap.. like anytime his hand can move towards mine.. *argh!!* sorry guys tt i think so weird.. but i realli have phobia of old men. so i wanted to sit beside wendy but tt seat was wet. in the end i sat between michael n david.
tt michael realli dua kang king man... he brought a deflated volleyball n said he nv bring pump for it. he also said he nv bring poker cards. in the end got bring lor.. now i dunno can believe anything he said.
anyway i was the 'Butter-girl' for the bbq.. in charge of applying butter on all the food. well, crab stick tastes superb with lots of butter. haha.. but the smoke kept getting into my eyes until it was super painful. i didn't feel the effect until now... my left eye is red now man. time passed v fast n when i got tired of buttering food it was probably past midnight already. i bent down most of the time.. now backache liao sia.
went to bathe (juz wash hair onli actually) with pearlyn.. she v cute.. lent her my super baggy top to change. came back n went to 7-Eleven with gab to get drinks.. she tried this weird brand of beer.. it tastes bland man. i like carlsberg better. then wendy wanted to buy too so i went with her n shaun. they bought long island tea. i nv tried tt b4 so i asked shaun to let me try. heng i nv buy... if i drink the whole thing i sure get high one..
played dai dee for a while (kept getting the best card but sometimes i nv win) then went to mac with john n david. waste of food man, we realli bought more than needed. v easy to get sian of bbq food.. dunno how we passed time.. but around 5am like tt i think, we started the fire again in our pit to cook food again. tried to cook as much food as we can.. v waste food lor =( imagine those pple in poor countries... haiz.
slept for a while in nic's 4-men tent. when i woke up it was time to go. 9am they return their bikes n we divided the leftovers, c who bring wad home. i volunteered to bring home the watermelon. david helped me carry it.. went home n did quiet time n then slp for a while before going out. v last min (sorry sorry) but i bought the presents for the June babies in my church then. i was already late for my cell grp's sports day.. was reluctant also la.. dun like sports competitions.
reached church then realised i wasn't wearing the right colour. so i dun dare to face them.. hehe.. tried to slp on the couch in the library but difficult la. woke up at 6.30 to get dinner from paccan. i like the way the cse char pple work. like my dad, fast movement. but dunno y i so slow one. i can nv work in tt kinda environment. i'll onli be scolded for getting in the way.
after worship prac esther decided to go back to pasir ris. so she drove me paul jon n dropped shirley at her place. we had supper at old airport road.. =D~~ u noe the last time i went there was like 6 yrs ago when i was in Feetwashers...? haha. ate wanton mee.. standard dropped. maybe itz becuz the boss thinks too highly of himself becuz he's getting media attention. =x haha..
esther dropped me home.. oh i got my present from her, from a lot of pple, i dun realli noe also.. she listed terry n kelvin n tt's all i rem. it's a pair of SEINNHEISER earphones!! cool!!
the next morning.. =X i went back to my room to 'rest' a while after esther called me.. heng my dad woke up. i heard him come out of his room so i woke up.. v reluctant to wake up cuz i didn't have enuf sleep. decided tt my green blouse was too creased so i ironed my clothes. end up a bit late.. oops... gave the present to my parents b4 i left the house.
hehehe today alot of us were in green.. had camp comm meeting at harbourfront foodcourt. was a noisy place. not a condusive environment for meeting. my sis came back but i couldn't pick her up with my parents. then my dad v funny, smsed me "We r sleeping" - cuz i smsed him tt i'll call him after the meeting la. took mrt home.. took a nap.. when i woke up my eye was v irritated. looks as if an outer layer is going to peel off sia. disgusting. had dinner at punggol. chili crab, black pepper crab, sambal kangkong, cereal prawn.. (=P~~~) the black pepper crab was the best! total cost around $90+. then my parents complain expensive. haha.
supposed to go out n meet a seller of a 128MB SD card.. but postponed, cuz i was unwilling to travel to hougang to find him.
anyways. I'M IN!!! declared shaun la. the Singles' Club.. hmm wanted to type in crap but decided not to.
i wanna go golden mile again with my sis to buy cds. cheap n looks like imitation. =x n i wanna buy thai stuff too. but i wun buy the dress i saw when i went with eileen the last time... not willing to fork out money for clothes =x

:: feeling terrible ::
my eyes have been red for 2 days already.... dunno wad happened... maybe i rubbed too much or watched too much horror movies? i could feel a bit pain in my eyes n i check the mirror n saw my eyes red already..
anyway.. progress in my project is alright.. gotta show 4 animated animals to the lecturer on monday.. now 2 done.. 2 more to go. i have the graphic for 1 of them, the other one not confirmed, still with algernon..
there's a problem with my project grp again.. all the while i thot algernon was angry with me for not doing work.. but last friday he was nice la.. we could actually tok normally kinda thing, abt computer hardware stuff... but seems like he's angry with my other project partner...? his msn nick always seem angry n look down on pple.. this time his nick is something like 'i will take on everything tonite - ....including yours' sounds like he wants to wage a war sia.. thot it was directed towards me until my proj partner told me wad he told her on msn.. so weird... so direct.. v scary sia.. even tho he doesn't seem to be against me but still...? there's conflict within my project grp. God, how can i help resolve it leh?
yday went for prayer meeting in church after sch.. it was great! learnt something on healing.. will post it either on yahoogrp n email or blog soon. thank God for the wonderful meal esther bought for me! some curry bento set from corrochan.. not something i will eat often..
hx got me a 1/2 day job.. quite excited abt the pay.. haha i seem a bit desperate for money huh. today i nv bring money at all..but i brought cup noodles n pokka green tea from home. i've managed to put $50 in my bank, but tt's given to me by my parents ($30 from mom for tj balai, $20 from dad) so tt means i dun have any savings from my allowance. still in need of money to pay off some stuff.. was overdue for my sponsorship fee again, but settled already. i still haven pay for the kelas bahasa fee.. gotta rem to bring the money this week..
lately i've been waking up with cramps in my legs... not enuf exercise? not enuf salt..? haha dunno leh.. but i've been waking up earlier than i used to.. hope can try even earlier.

:: recharged! ::
i'm back from tanjung balai!~
wanna thank God for 5 things.. hehe..
1. for this chance to take time away from my busy life, to go to a quiet place as retreat, to remind myself tt pple need God, n life's not abt myself, my own problems in sch etc.
2. i went there to help Persis teach how to bake cakes. as women, our role in our family is to provide love. to show it, we give our time n effort to do something for our family.
3. wiki seems happy to c me.. (oops! =x) frenky in batam... =( keke
4. i bought 2 more sunsilk shampoo there.. haha i got purple, green, yellow, white, blue, n today juz added a dark blue n light green to the collection! oh, n my mom bought toiletries, n a brown one came along with Dove shower foam!~ =D
5. my mom gave me $30 more cuz she knew i was going to tanjung balai. i was home late on friday, but found the money on my table. she also helped me record the 10pm show on tape becuz i forgot abt it n it was the last episode!
n from the trip i feel v motivated...
1. to drink more tea everyday.. after eating oily n spicy stuff in every meal, man i was abt to fall sick.. but after drinking tea for breakfast this morning, i felt much much much better! thank God for tt too!
2. to use less water everyday.. how they bathe is actually collect water in a pail n use a small container to splash water all over themselves, altho it's v cold, but after a long day i juz felt like having a cold shower!
3. show u guys how tanjung balai is actually like, by making a Flash for it..
4. START writing my testimonial in mandarin to share n encourage the local folks there.. it was realli disappointing (to myself) tt when they asked around if we have testimonies to share when we visited the locals n i could onli keep quiet n think wad has God done in my life tt they can understand? if i share abt the blessings tt i have (for example common things tt singaporeans own: computer, laptop, handphone, camera), it will juz make them feel uncomfortable.
but then i also feel quite frustrated..
1. i receive a lot of msgs, from campus crusade frenz asking me to do things, or checking whether i have done wad i'm supposed to do.
2. i got a lot of mosquito bites.. some quite 'deadly'.. by tt i mean tt there will be scars tt wun go away v quickly..
3. i forgot to water my vinee.. now dried up n dying =(
hmm anyway as i'm typing this my dad came into my room n gave me $20 extra! thank God for extra blessings! haha.. oh during my trip there's this lady from the chinese cong who looks 90% like zoe tay n i think sounds like her too! she asked me if i got bf.. but no la, so she said dun worry, next time my bf sure v good one.. hehe.. blessed by her word of encouragement. persis' bf came to fetch her at harbourfront juz now.. then i'm thinking, hopefully my future bf will also wait for me at harbourfront, to come back from mission trip, if not, go with me!

:: apple and creative ::
i din noe apple n creative r rivals.. =( very upset today abt michael's mp3 player... so new some more.. kinda beginning to feel tt i v suay, everything i touch will spoil... andrew's comp crashed the moment i arrived at his place.. then today i tried to transfer files from my ibook over to michael's mp3 player, my ibook hang at first.. so i forced it to shut down. then i kept trying to make things happen, in the end caused his mp3 player to hang.. i guess there's a lesson learnt... apple n creative can nv work together. =x
felt irresponsible. supposed to take charge of things, but i procrastinate a lot.. a bit reluctant to call pple up to coordinate things also.. honestly i can say tt when my job is done i'll be saying 'thank God itz over', rather than 'thank God i learnt this n this lesson from it all'.... tt shldn't be the case heh. gotta change my mindset lor.
do work do work do work do work do work.......
quite angry with my dad for not telling me tt his hp spoil!! tried to contact him but couldn't... until he reach Expo already.. then i had to take one hour to travel there by mrt myself. =(

:: my financial situation n gen 12 commissioning ::
ok guys let me share with u abt my financial situation...
i'm currently broke.. i dun ask my parents for extra money except on special occasions... i usually get har sib dollars per week.. but this week, wad i need to spend on... :
taxi fare to church on sunday - $14.30
monday's expenses on food (thank God for caleb for treating me to prata) - $2.80
my kelas bahasa fees (i'm taking the 9th lesson this level already yet i still haven't paid!) - $20
alkitab (indonesian language bible - IF possible) - $12
prayer workshop on saturday - $4
cell grp fund (for 4 months) - $8
islander card (the application fee is increasing with effect from 1st Jun so better get the card b4 then) - $15
owe kwek money for belly's present - $8
total - $84 - - - well past my weekly allowance
let me share abt wad else i need to spend on after this week :
monthly sponsorship fee for my son Nelson - $30
coming mission trip to tanjung balai excluding subsidy - $50
running shoes - ~$120
gift for parents - ~$90
total - $290 - - - will take me ~2 months to save up to this amount, provided i dun eat, which is IMPOSSIBLE
n of cuz if including meals for a glutton like me... i'll need God's providence n miracles to survive..
thanks guys for reading all these... note tt the above message means DON'T TEMPT ME BY SUGGESTING FINE EATING PLACES/ACTIVITIES. i'm gonna stay home for meals whenever possible already la.
anyway today.. went to Foochow Methodist Church for Spiritual Multipliers (SM) training. n commissioning for the pple going on mission trips this week. had 3 X teh/teh tarik today... (4, if including the ice lemon tea i sipped from shirley's cup). the worship session was good, i kinda prayed tt it wld last forever hahaha... starting to wonder, if onli i can learn bass guitar... sounds fun.. n the coolest thing today is tt i met esther cheong......in the middle of Little India!! of all places lor!! haha... cuz she's going for the commissioning too.. then she kinda lost her way haha..
the message brought by Holly Sheldon was good too... makes "going out" an exciting thing! blessed the mission trippers with prayers.. anyway i was sharing with gloria abt the SM training.. i was rather angry (when i say angry usually itz an emotion in my heart tt i dun realli express) actually.. cuz today is my only holiday n yet the SM training had to take up half the day... but it was good in a way it dug out a problem tt i have.. if i dun expose this problem n pray abt it, it wld probably grow within me like a parasite. ok, wad else? hmm i missed bowling with the ogls today... simply no time.. besides if gab not going cuz she's doing her studio project, it wld be unfair to her if i go. n abt my meeting with shirley today.. hmm, gotta say sorry cuz i was stoning half the time.. dunno y so tired...
hmm yday was yau's bday if i nv rem wrongly.. i had the insane idea of calling him to c if his voice is realli the same voice as "Calvin" 's! haha... in the end i nv la.. dunno y i always plan to do some things but forget to do in the end de....

:: nitemare II ::
nitemares often come in more than one nite sia.. last nite dreamt of some weird old building too.. it has many rooms, like a hospital or sch.. the building is white.. it was around afternoon like tt..
there were my IM frenz... n 2 old/middle aged men (cheats)... i simply dun like the way they look.. i had brought more than $100 with me during my stay at that building.. n i rem being in a room with my parents n the 2 cheats.. they were explaining n promoting something to them, while i was sitting back n looking at the beautiful scenery (sunset) outside the big window..
i dun exactly rem the sequence of everything, but there were parts tt i rem.. like hilwan, jinwen they all were sitting on a ledge on the 2nd or 3rd storey, n joking abt leaning back n pretend to fall.. then someone tripped wan, but he escaped tt trip.. but he lost his balance n tried to land properly.. n he did.. then dunno wad already la..
also got another nite i dreamt tt i was in a primary school.. supposed to be my pri sch but it didn't look like at all.. the building was blue and yellow... beside the sch was a compound where the principal n his family stayed. none of my frenz were there... it was around evening time.. i rem running around, trying to find a way out.. i could c outside but couldn't seem to find the exit.. i even asked the principal for directions to get out.. the outside looks like pandan reservoir, my sec sch environment... i saw a snake somewhere n tried to notify someone.. anyway.. can't rem much abt those nitemares..

:: haven't been a good angel ::
hmm... feel kinda moody these days... pms...
juz feel tt i haven been a good girl... my friends always call me angel, but lately i dun feel like one..
been suaning pple until quite jia lat.. then i get offended v easily.. a lot of careless words juz come out of mouth.. i realise tt i tell lies too.. honestly, dunno if algernon is reading this.. =X this morning i woke up late... when he called me i was awake for a while already but i kinda acted like i realli juz woke up... to buy time perhaps... but i juz dun have motivation to do fyp, no motivation to go zoo with him to take photos... muz pray tt i will change this mindset...
been badmouthing pple too.. like torrence.. itz bad, not rite to do tt, but i juz tell pple who dunno him, how he's like.. hmm.. i also get irritated easily by pple around me... like juz now i was ordering food for dinner.. the china woman juz looked past mi n ask the guy behind me wad he wan to order.. i so pissed off lor. then i quickly shouted my order.. haha so kiasu.. but i juz keep giving a very pissed off look, to show tt "hey dun make me angry".. n today i find someone v irritating... but i try not to show it.
ok honestly too, i juz dun like pple from china.. those type who push their way thru a crowd, those who expect pple to pay them for acting as extras (among so many pple from other countries tt day in chinatown, they were realli the onli ones who r like tt).. those who steal pple's husbands... those who make so much noise (they juz like to talk loudly huh)... ok i'm wrong to have discrimination against anyone... but i'm juz being honest abt it.. i dun act friendly in front of them.. i juz dun tok to them n dun like to hang out near them.
hmm muz pray for me to get over this feeling... itz realli not something a Christian shld do.. maybe avoiding them might help easing the "hatred"? haha...
actually i haven been gd, becuz i haven been spending enuf time with God.. every nite i read Psalms n draw lessons from each chapter, n trying to translate a indonesian daily bread, but i haven't been putting my heart into hearing God speak... it was more like getting it over n done with.... shouldn't be the case....
pray for me ok, my friends!
n yina is rite, liking someone becuz he/she looks gd is superficial... i have been superficial... but i kinda got used to this sorta lifestyle... can i continue? or shld i change? suddenly i juz dun have the 'feeling' to wan to fall in love... but i've been wondering if pple wonder y i dun have bf? anyway there's this saying i still find true: you are not wad u think u are. you are wad u think i think u r. uh get wad i mean? in another words, i am not wad i think i am. i am wad i think u think i am. understand better?

after the movie jasmine n i found out tt we r both born on the same day!!! wow! kinda the first friend i have whose birthday is same day as me!
anyway we went to kbox at cineleisure... i dun have money on me la.. but felt deprived of karaoke-ing... so i decided to borrow from the guys.. we started at 10pm... ended at 4am... funny tt i actually dun lose my voice singing the whole nite... usually i lose my voice after singing a while... took photos... v cool.. weiyang can sing... jasmine also.. gd... vincent sing until he block nose but still continue to sing...
took taxi to jasmine's house to stay over... she has a dog.. dun lick me can liao.... she woke mi up around 9 or 10+ am.. i should have left earlier..cuz meeting shirley bong in the afternn in church.. but i muz go home first... in the end i couldn't make it in time... i reached home at 1.45pm lor... but then again.. when i stayed at her house a bit longer i got the chance to see her photos n also help her as she prepare to go out.
