Welcome 2009, first posting for the year 2009. a enjoyable countdown experience with henry, mark, marcus and nick. we stay on benjamin sheares bridge to view the spectacular fireworks. seriously my camera sucks, i have to wait for about 5sec then i can take another picture, so many chances of



i love display the best...


























after the display of the firework, many musketeers on bikes are trying to act funny, the traffic police on watch have to whistle them asking them to get lost. we wanted to stay awake throughout the night and suggested going henry house for mahjong, but this Mr Hen rejected, haizzz..... no choice and we ended up going home by MRT...

Ciao,
Happy New Year everyone!!!

at last, the fever of christmas is finally here, not the presents i will receive tomorrow, but towards the barbeque after opening our presents. but the weather of this morning frighten me, it cannot happen again on tomorrow evening, or else, it will be very troublesome even though we can still barbeque under the rain (using shades of course), and limiting our activities...

7 more days and it year 2009, cant wait for to get to year 3 in poly as fast as possible. seriously i hate year 2 semester 2, the modules suck a lot, i didnt get to fully understand what was going on... actually, this semester was also the best, only at the start, and it gradually decline as the lessons goes on. my grades was the reason, i gotta the most As ever than my other previous 3 semesters. however, my old lappy went on strike and everything start to get haywire.

let get back to tomorrow occasion, i thinking what i should wear for tomorrow, celebration then barbequeing, should be casual bah, it christmas, not new year, heh heh...

11hour 10 min 00 sec to CHRISTMAS
an advance wishing to everyone Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!

Updates:
New song uploaded

10 more days to christmas, and i haven buy any presents... the mood of christmas somehow disappeared in the speed of light, compared it with a month ago where i am hoping the arrival of christmas, it's a totally different case.

finally my school holiday finally started, but...schooling is boring, holidaying is boring too... applied for a job for my holiday 5 days ago, but i haven receive a single reply from them, and the job has already started... and so it is a confirm decline case...


ciao,
waiting for that reply to come (not the job application reply, but something else)

at last, last day of school, time for some relaxation and maybe finding a job?? 3 more school weeks and i am out of the horrible, terrible, atrociously semester ever in my entire life. really hope that my elective module, finance and accounting will be accepted, also looking forward for the upcoming module totally related to my course.

got a shocked when i entered the hell room today, i was marked late for class for last thursday lesson. i remember clearly that i reach the damn class at 8.28am, considered late as well? the facilitator arrived earlier than me and she was marking attendance, bloody hell, marked finish attendance before 8.30 and she give my attendance as late... i was never ever late for this module before leh, and this goondo facilitator ARUNA CHELLAM leh? she is only punctual for only twice out of 13 lessons, and she late today again.

three weeks never bowl le, my skill must be rusty by now. luckily that is a outing this coming sunday, bowling with my relatives of course... yipee, cant wait for this day to come.

ciao,
going to be bored to death soon

good day everyone!!! while i blogging about my boring life, i am dying my hair as well. it been decade since i blog?? some people has been complaining that my blog is dead, spider web sticking all four corners of my blog... well, since i has nothing to do while letting my hair to absorb the ammonia stuff, i am finally able to settle down... since my last post is two weeks ago, lets go back to two weeks ago then ;) (lame? i keep it as short as possible)

the week before:
friday went night cycling with marcus, henry and mark. starting checkpoint, at changi village where we rented our bicycle, $8 for the whole night, cheap right??? (shop name; Mr. Bike, opp the food centre) we cycle along the changi coast road and through east coast park to old kallang airport food centre. first checkpoint for food and rest.

after that we proceed to mount faber, passing through suntec city and shenton way, first time ever to cycle at CBD area. my real intention for this trip is to visit the Henderson wave (it's a bridge) which is located between mount faber and kent ridge. the four of us fell dead as we climb out the hill, when we are more than halfway up, 0 energy left is what i can say. real tiring to cycle up... we manage to reach the peak and the bridge, checkpoint 2 is finished. better than expected, we reached earlier than anticipated. it only around 12am when we reached...

checkpoint 3, to have supper at orchard road... a soothing ride to cycle downhill, to kill time, i deliberately make a detour around redhill area to view the car companies located there. so many nice car there, feel like trading my bike with them for the car and drive it home... i almost got bang by a car at paterson road when i cycle across the traffic light without knowing the traffic man is still red and my mind was thinking deeply about something. mark saved my life when he shouted at me, thanks to him that i am still here blogging. a peaceful trip to orchard road and supper at the macdonald near shaw house.

checkpoint 4, to singapore flyer. along the road, we pass by more than 5 ERPs i think. thinking one day everywhere we go we must pay road tax, even by foot, cycling, driving, flying and sailing.

final checkpoint and the last was back to changi village. we reach there around 8am and have breakfast there while waiting for the shop to open. yawwwwwn, really tired and fell asleep the moment i bath and landed on the bed. and i ended up sleeping till the next day waking up several times for my meals.


last week:
my laptop got sick again!!!!! stupid same problem once again, motherboard failure!!! so for the whole of last week, i am laptopless and i went school empty handed... and for some stupid reason, i cant login to LEO to do my reflection journal... that the worst week of my life... third time i have to visit the ACER hospital and my lappy got warded. but on friday, i got a call from ACER to go down and collect my new laptop... yah, a replacement... i was given a new one, Aspire 4930. much more better than my previous when it comes to graphic and ram, 2gb plus my own 1gb, that makes it 3gb...

anyone curious why my motherboard fails again??? answer is i play too much game, high quality graphic one somemore. i was playing dynasty warrior 6 when the screen suddenly turn white and error message appear. i try to restart my lappy and enter the game and it hang and turn black. crap, graphic card got burned!!!

but i really scare this time, scare my new lappy got problem again, wonder what ACER will do if i burn the graphic card again??? new one???


this week:
wonder what with the class this week?? virus infection??? not towards human but laptop!!! two of my classmates laptop has the same problem as mine the moment i got new laptop... their motherboard failed... wonder if they deliberately burn their graphic card, wahahahahaha!!!!

today's facilitator is weird... while he writing formulas on the board, he talks to the board as well. he never face us and explain but instead he explained it to the board... is he shy??? i bet he love duck rice, because every sentence there will be a 'ya'... ya fan (duck rice)??? "Class, we will be learning four things today ya, then this this that that..........." "C square times 'langda' equals Fc ya" "yaya, all of you can go for your break now" sure this facilitator love ya...

finally end of post here....

ciao
she is BACK!!!
