Marina Bay steam boat...nyum!

haha...this post is supposed to come before the alice's bdae post...hhaa
but nevermind...I shall write this now lah...
yesterday i went steamboating with s12 ppl at marina bay...really nice to see all of them again after so long...I kinda miss the class coz i realise my class now is very segregated...we only come to class to attend lesson/ tutorial, then everybody just leave n there's so little interaction between us...haiz...
oh ya, steam boat...haha... It was yummy. Actually it was my first time eating there...I rmb the last time i went there was during chinese new year with the vhall gang n the juniors....but i didnt get to eat coz i ate with my cousins before that...
haha
it's cheap n nice, though the place a bit dirty...but wad do u expect lah....such a price n such a place...but the impt thing is the food is nice lor...
after steamboat, the gals took hianchuan's car to esplanade while the guys have to take bus,..haha that's the advantage of being girls.haha
at esplanade we were just sitting ard at the water front chitchatting abt a lot of things...such a nice play to hang out...i wish i did that last time haha
We (me n shufang)only realised that we have to leave soon before the last bus ends (wad a cinderella story....) in the end we managed to catch the last 97 bus from cityhall there...then luckily bus 30 still operate when we reached harbour front at 12 haha...fiuh....
one of the inconvenience staying in pgp. coz pgp is a real ulu place, the bus stop is so far away...that's why sometimes a bit scary to walk back myself especially when it's super late aledy like yesterday...
but i was a nice gathering lah overall...miss them all!
here are some of the picture taken yesterday...
















alice's bdae!

this post is dedicated to Alice, the lucky gurl who is having her birthday today...24 oct 2006.... I dunno whether it's a holiday for her there today, but it's holiday for us today....hari raya puasa, idul fitri, wadever u wanna call it... happy hari raya puasa for all who celebrates...
back to the topic abt alice since it's her bdae today...must make her feel special today haha...(jangan ge er ya lice....cuma buat kali ini aja loh!! haha)
she's a friend that i got to know abt 3 years ago when I started my journey in singapore.... During the first 3 months of relc, we were not that close, but we were in the same english class at that time....
After that, came the shocking news that 5 of us got in rgs, including me n alice...that's where we become closer coz rg really dun have a lot of indo...so we are always stuck together in school, in hostel, we even became roommate for one year...had a lot of fun too then...
then, after the struggle to complete our o'level. it's time for me to decide which jc to go...I put vj first n nj second.... I thought my points wont be enuf to get me to vj.... but surprisingly, i got in there n guess wad, alice got in vj too...
SO, we continue to be in the same school for the next 2 years...with all the hell of mugging time...but of course not to forget all the great times we had... we spent most of our time in hostel together, eat together, watch movies together...coz we stayed 2 doors away only...just a knock on her door needed to kacau her studying haha...
alice, is a funky gal, who likes her hair spiked up, she even like to cut her own hair...haha...when u dunno her, she looks like a quiet type but actually she can crack a lot of jokes n make ppl laugh until got stomachache....
she's a punctual gal, always the earliest to get ready for everything...but the highlight is, she's a super duper creative gal that i've ever known... she can make some typical black note book into a classy n unique one (rmb her autograph book?)...
as a person, she's a very tolerant n caring gal!! but of course she's has her limit (which is good haha)...dun make her angry lah...if not ROAR!! haha just kidding lah...alice jarang marah kok!!! haha
It's so sad that now alice is no longer in singapore to pursue her uni...but i'm happy for her that she's aledy in aussie now, with her bro n sis.... just enjoy it there! miss her a lot coz we really have shared the good n bad times together, miss shopping with u too gal!!
hm...alice, happy with the decication...tulus lho nulisnya haha
miss u a lot!

Deathnote!!...not bad

I think the whole singapore is having the deathnote fever...maybe it's a bit too exaggerated to say that lah...but I guess since it is shown during this festive season n ppl are all having holidays, everybody just wants to go out to catch movies and one of the prominent choices is deathnote...
I went to watch yesterday oso...with this whole grp of indo frenz from pgp...not all of course...too many indo here that it's impossible to clique with everybody...
basically got me, ismy, jenn, david, linda, danny, beer, ananda...
we went vivocity which is this new n huge shopping mall at harbour front. For those who have not been in sg, this is a new place to shop...though the shops are mostly high-ends...but I havent really got the chance to walk ard yet since we reached just on time for the movie...
Why was it fun?? first, the movie itself is quite interesting, though not as good as the manga...just love the story line but I'm already looking forward to the 2nd one in dec...yay! just the right timing...a refreshing method after exam!!
second, the company. I havent got the chance to go out like this for such a long while...Last time, this is wad we do almost everyweek or at least once every month....but since i got into nus, I havent got the chance to truly go out n hang out with friends...
The bast part is, supper at fongseng after movie...banana cheese prata tastes good with sugar n curry...sounds weird but it's really nice when ur stomach is growling...haha
oh ya, as a result of deathnote hangover, we started calling each other with initials...like C for cindy, L for linda, I for ismy, J for Jeanette...haha...
I'm really looking forward to another outing like this....when arh?
Haiz, today is another unproductive day...I just stare at my laptop the whole day, eat at K gourmet, watch youtube, play taboo...sigh...my assignment is still untouched n i choose to write blog instead..haha
I miss watching taiwan variety shows by 5566...so I tried to explore youtube...and this is wad i found...(i think it was from this year's chinese new year....very interesting n creative indeed! 5566 never fails to amaze me...)

When everybody starts to complain...

At last! my week is over... there were a lot of things going on for the past week... somehow time passes so fast...but i think i'm doing well. Just coping n keeping up with the pace of everything...right on the dot...Maybe slightly lagging, but still quite reasonable for my standard....
at last my grp is more or less done with the project and we've handed in our first draft. so, only needs a bit more fine tunning....dun wanna think so much abt oral defence first...taking one thing at a time...
and the good thing is, deepavali n hari raya is coming...yay!! so can slack a bit...
I got plans for these few days aledy.... tonite gonna watch deathnote at vivocity with Indo frenz...cant wait aledy!! then sunday got the competition, then monday going out with S12 frenz...for steamboat oh yay!!...haha... for the time being I shall just forget about the deadline for another project that is coming in 1 week time....=(
apart from me, i see a lot of ppl ard me who is complaining abt life too..they say uni life sucks n everything...I just dun seem to agree with that...
Nothing is easy in life... especially come to studying, it's never pleasant...particularly at this point of time where everything starts to pile up.... but somehow all these hardship makes me enjoy life more when it comes to play...
n i try to be consistent everyday. so at least i wont feel guilty when I go out n play...haha....wad a mentality...
haiz, i think i'm just talking rubbish....

first competition

this post is dedicated to my first dance competition ever...but it is not a real competition in the sense. coz it's really an informal kinda thing...
yup, as u all know, i have been taking up my social n ballroom dance lessons, twice a week, cha cha n quickstep.
the course is coming to an end and the committe is organising this mini competition for us to "show off" wad we have learned lah...maybe they call it a competition to make it sound more exciting...
I'm actually quite excited abt it oso...coz i really really love doing this dance (havent i emphasise this enuf..?)... and the seniors are always very nice to teach us the moves whenever we are lost....
oh ya, back to the "competition"...actually, i dun really care abt winning or losing, coz that's not the whole point.
Yesterday was like the "qualifying round"...but really it's a friendly competition that every couple that took part got into the semifinals for at least one kind of dance...
How i rate my performance yesterday? i say not bad lah...for a first competition standard.... though got mistakes here n there, muffled moves, step wrongly ...wadever...it was a performance that i could be proud of...I felt quite confident and most imptly, i have greatly enjoyed it...and that's wad impt isnt it? haha...
oh ya, and actually i will compete one more time on sunday...for quickstep i think, coz we only got into the semi for cha cha...would wanna try again for quickstep...hopefully we did better...
I'm a bit tired of dancing now...my feet are aching slightly, but it's a good way to escape from the tutorials and projects to come...sigh...but now they are pilling up...help!!
-wish me luck-

it's been ages

it's been so so long since the last time i update here...Somehow I lost the mood to write aledy...life is as boring as ever...
but i'm kinda enjoying it now coz it's after midterm period...I feel that I have lost my midterm break...never really enjoy it to the fullest. So, I deserve a break now...somehow, I just take everything very easily...tutorials are always done last minute...
everyday, I will watch my korean series....my girl...high recommendation!! actually until now I still havent finish watching it...purposely watch slowly... This is so typical me...I won't want good things to end so fast...though I'm very curious about the continuation of the story...but it's just too wasted if such a nice movie is finished in a dash...just wanna prolong the happy feeling of being able to enjoy this show...
okay, back to the point abt post midterm...precisely, I'm having post midterm syndrome where I just dun take studying seriously...I hope this is only for now...coz I really need to gear up again...time will just fly past like siao...and if i dun catch up soon, I'll be the one who'll be siao near the exam.
I'm so scared of exam now...somehow, nobody is pushing me aledy. At least last time in vhall n nanyang, I see ppl mugging then will feel a little sense of guilt when i dun study. but now, everybody study in the room (I oso lock myself in the room), nobody to "push" n motivate me...I just hope i wont flung my exams lah...that's all...
Cha chan quickstep lessons are coming to and end next week. I have to say I have fully enjoyed the course so much. though sometimes i dread going all the way to kallang which is super far from pgp...it's a strain on the pocket n a strain on time...but I think i'll still continue for the next course which will begin on 9th of oct....haiz...money flowing out again...but nvm, it's all worth it cindy!! (self-assurance). there's also a mini competition on that last day. just wanna have fun, not particularly very competitive...
hm...talking abt holiday, today I just realised that it's the last day to apply for vacation stay and i havent plan much abt my holiday...dun even know when i can go back coz i havent book ticket...
honestly, now i dun look forward to go back as much...sometimes i feel that in indo, I dun have much room to move. It's just not save to wander ard alone...n of course i'll never do that. Apart from that, I just feel so dependent at home...i prefer my lifestle here where i gotta decide wad i wanna do.
but still i miss the comfort of home n wanna meet dwee n alice...
i dunno where r my other indo frenz aledy, somehow we have different lives now. they are too busy to entertain me oso...haiz...maybe i shld take the initiative too...jiayou....
